Summary
The Charter Review Committee chose Gustave Larson as chair and Crystal Wickham as vice chair by general consent at its Feb. 6 meeting. Committee members, staff and a public speaker discussed qualities they wanted in leadership before nominations were closed.
Gustave Larson was selected as chair and Crystal Wickham as vice chair of the Sunnyvale Charter Review Committee by general consent at the committee's Feb. 6 meeting at Sunnyvale City Hall.
The committee conducted nominations after staff opened the floor. Committee member Gustave Larson was nominated and, with no other nominations following a short public comment period, was declared chair by general consent. Crystal Wickham received a nomination and a second; she accepted the nomination and, with no additional nominees, was declared vice chair by general consent.
Before finalizing nominations, one in-person speaker, identified as Steve S., addressed the committee and urged leaders who act as good parliamentarians and avoid pushing a personal agenda. Steve S. suggested candidates Tim Wei and Ken Olsen as potential vice-chair choices. City staff permitted public comment on nominations before the committee closed nominations.
The committee then proceeded with regular business under the newly confirmed chair and vice chair.
Ending: The committee moved on to other agenda items with Larson presiding and Wickham serving as vice chair; both will preside at subsequent meetings as the committee begins its charter review work.
