Council extends nominating period for boards and commissions by 60 days
Summary
Council approved a 60‑day extension of the nominating period for boards and commissions, moving the deadline to Feb. 14; public commenter urged stronger attendance standards for certain commissions.
The City Council voted to extend the nominating period for city boards and commissions by 60 days, moving the deadline to Feb. 14. The item was presented by the City Attorney’s office; the motion to extend passed on recorded roll call.
Public comment on the item came from Ellen Durham, who urged the council not to push the nominating period beyond February and recommended that attendance records be weighed in reappointment decisions. Durham cited the Design Review Board’s attendance history as a concern for a board that makes decisions on large projects.
Council answered clarifying questions about the new deadline and approved the extension by unanimous vote.
