Summary

The commission nominated Jessica Jansen to serve as the Parks & Recreation Commission’s representative on the downtown revitalization advisory group; the motion to nominate carried by voice vote. Staff said the mayor will make the formal appointment.

The parks commission moved and approved a nomination to select a parks commission representative for the downtown revitalization advisory group.

A call for a parks representative drew a volunteer nomination from Commissioner Jessica Jansen, who stated, “I am,” when asked if she would serve. A commissioner moved and seconded a nomination for Jessica; the commission approved the nomination by voice vote (all in favor, “Aye”). Jason said the mayor will make the formal appointment but indicated it is likely the mayor will follow the commission’s recommendation.

Why it matters: the downtown revitalization phase 3 project — staff said the RFQ for design services is on the street — will involve multiple advisory meetings and a cross-section of stakeholders. The commission will have one representative to attend design advisory meetings and help communicate with downtown businesses and committee members.

Ending

Jessica Jansen will be forwarded as the parks commission’s recommended representative to the mayor for formal appointment; staff will notify the commission with scheduling information for upcoming advisory meetings.
