Mobility and Traffic Safety Commission elects Patricia Trauth as chair; vice-chair selection deferred
Summary
At a regular meeting, the Encinitas Mobility and Traffic Safety Commission elected Commissioner Patricia Trauth as chair. A later nomination for vice chair was raised but deferred after a procedural clarification that the item was not on the agenda.
The Encinitas Mobility and Traffic Safety Commission on Monday elected Commissioner Patricia Trauth as its chair during a regular meeting and postponed final action on selecting a vice chair after a staff clarification about the agenda.
Commissioners nominated Trauth and carried the motion by roll call. The meeting record shows commissioners responded affirmatively during the roll call. The chair moved on to the next agenda item after announcing the motion had passed.
The commission then entertained a nomination for vice chair—Chair Abe nominated Commissioner Glenn Johnson and a member seconded—but a commissioner interjected to note that selection of a vice chair had not been posted on the agenda. That member said the matter should be added to the next meeting’s agenda, and the chair accepted that recommendation, deferring final action on the vice-chair position.
The item was procedural: no additional policy decisions or work-plan changes were tied to the leadership selections. Commissioners present at roll call included Vice Chair Patricia Trauth, Chris Duncan, James Gross, Glenn Johnson, Ron Medick, Paul Templin and David Thiele. Amanda (staff) conducted roll call and confirmed attendance.
The chair and vice-chair roles determine which commissioners lead meetings and represent the commission at the planned joint meeting with the City Council later in the spring.
