Troutdale Citizens Advisory Committee adopts charter after two‑year process
Summary
The Troutdale Citizens Advisory Committee voted to adopt its charter at the May 7 meeting after two years of drafting and feedback from council and planning commission; staff will publish the final dated charter and include it in onboarding materials for future members.
The Troutdale Citizens Advisory Committee voted to adopt its committee charter on May 7, completing a process that began about two years earlier and incorporated feedback from council and the Planning Commission.
A committee member moved to adopt the charter, another member seconded, and the motion passed by voice vote without opposition.
Members and staff described the charter as the culmination of extensive discussion and edits over the last two years. Committee members thanked charter drafters and volunteers for the work; staff agreed to post the final, dated charter online and to circulate a copy to all members for onboarding new committee members.
Committee members said the charter will be one of the core onboarding documents for incoming members and expressed interest in updating committee handbooks and materials so new appointees have current resources.
The adoption was procedural and immediate: staff will record the adoption date, post the final document, and include it in future onboarding materials. No additional substantive policy changes were made at the meeting on the charter itself.
