Votes at a glance: CDC approves April minutes; appoints housing committee membership (appointments sent to City Clerk)
Summary
At the May 13 meeting the Community Development Commission approved the April 8, 2025 minutes and the chair appointed members to the housing committee; appointee names will be submitted to the City Clerk for Audit and Finance Committee review.
The Community Development Commission took the following formal actions on May 13.
1) Approval of minutes (April 8, 2025) - Motion to approve: Commissioner Longoria. - Second: Commissioner Menard. - Outcome: Minutes approved by a raise of hands. One commissioner was recorded as needing to abstain (Commissioner Johnson) during the count; chair’s staff confirmed the abstention. The commission chair recorded the approval at the meeting.
2) Housing committee appointments (administrative appointments) - Action: Chair Noe Elias appointed commissioners to serve on the Housing Committee: Commissioner Longoria, Commissioner Tisha, Commissioner Brewster, Commissioner Noe Elias (self), Commissioner Treis, Commissioner Lyric, and Commissioner Trice (volunteered). Appointees accepted their appointments; the chair said he will submit the appointee list to the City Clerk’s Office for review by the City Council Audit and Finance Committee.
Notes: Minute approval was recorded by a voice/raise-of-hands vote; the transcript indicates some confusion during the roll call and an abstention was recorded. The housing committee appointments were made by the chair and accepted by appointees; formal convening of the committee is contingent on Audit and Finance Committee approval.
Why it matters: Approval of minutes is a routine governance action; the housing committee appointments determine who will lead the commission’s deeper policy work pending council-level approval.
