Library board discusses liaison roles and upcoming city council appointment for Ward 2 seat
Summary
Board members reviewed liaison responsibilities, reported confusion about who serves as the Friends liaison, and discussed the city council's timeline to appoint a Ward 2 replacement in late January.
Advisory-board members discussed internal roles, liaison duties with the Friends of the Library and timing for a City of Longmont appointment to fill a vacant Ward 2 council seat.
Board members said there was confusion about whether Katie had been designated the Friends liaison; the chair said she had asked for volunteers to take on the liaison responsibilities and that no one volunteered earlier. The chair described a lapse in receiving meeting materials for a Friends meeting and said she would attempt to resolve the assignment and suggested sharing liaison duties as an option.
Separately, staff described the city's process for filling a vacant Ward 2 council seat. The city is accepting applications and plans a candidate forum (reported as Jan. 21) and a council appointment date reported as the last Tuesday in January (reported as Jan. 28). Staff said the appointee would serve until the term ends the following November and could choose to run for election thereafter.
