Commission approves consent agenda and fills citizen commission assignments
Summary
The Ottawa City Commission approved the consent agenda (minutes and agenda) and confirmed commission assignments to local advisory and partner boards as listed in the meeting packet; the appointments passed on a voice vote.
At its meeting, the Ottawa City Commission approved the consent agenda, which included the Jan. 8, 2025 meeting minutes and agenda approval, and approved the slate of commissioner appointments to citizen advisory boards and partner organizations as presented in the agenda packet.
City Manager Silcott reviewed the list of citizen commissions and the recommended commissioner assignments. The report identified current assignments: Commissioner Crowley serving on the Airport Advisory Board, Mayor Pro Tem Clayton traditionally serving on the Chamber of Commerce, the mayor serving on FCDC (the local development organization), Commissioner Taylor on the Kansas Municipal Energy Agency, Commissioner Taylor on the neighborhood revitalization review committee, Mayor Pro Tem Clayton on Ottawa Main Street, and customary assignments to the Ottawa Memorial Auditorium Advisory Board and library board as listed in the packet.
Commissioners moved and seconded approval of the appointments and the consent agenda. The commission approved the consent agenda on a voice vote and later approved the appointments as suggested.
The meeting record shows the motions were approved without recorded roll-call tallies at the time of the voice votes. The actions were recorded as passed during the meeting’s proceedings.
Ending: The approved appointments set the commission's representation for the coming year; commissioners said staff will follow up as needed to confirm schedules and transitions for those assignments.
