NFP board forms three-member nominating subcommittee to review applicants
Summary
The NFP Review Board created a three-member nominating subcommittee and scheduled interviews to consider two applications for upcoming vacancies; the board voted to appoint Directors Fuller, Leto and Frederickson to the panel.
The NFP Review Board voted Tuesday to form a three-member nominating subcommittee and appointed Directors Fuller, Leto and Frederickson to interview applicants and recommend candidates for three upcoming vacancies.
Staff member Nolan told the board “we have 3 board members, that have terms ending in March,” and said the city had received two applications for the openings. Nolan described the subcommittee’s role as conducting interviews in the first two weeks of March and returning a recommendation to the full board for a vote, at which point city commission approval would be sought as a consent item.
The board discussed whether interviews would be treated as onboarding or screening. Nolan said the meetings would be “more of an interview,” and that the subcommittee would invite applicants to the March meeting to give background and support a recommendation. Nolan noted the city commission’s approval timing can affect when new members take office.
Board members who spoke volunteered for the subcommittee. A motion to approve Directors Fuller, Leto and Frederickson to serve on the nominating subcommittee was moved and supported; Nolan then called a roll-call vote and recorded the motion as approved.
Nolan said the city had promoted board openings on social media since January and that recruiting candidates with specific technical backgrounds (for example, hydrogeology) has been difficult; he encouraged applications from residents with a range of experience. Nolan said terms are two years and may be served consecutively.
The board did not take additional formal actions on applicant selection at the meeting; the subcommittee is expected to interview candidates and return recommendations to the board at the March meeting.
