The council accepted the resignation of Elm Creek Watershed Commissioner Tom Anderson, effective Dec. 31, and authorized staff to publish the vacancy and begin recruitment. Staff asked permission to recruit for a primary replacement plus two alternates (first alternate and second alternate) to clarify succession for the city's single voting seat on watershed issues. Council moved and approved the process; staff noted the timing was intended to provide a transition before the annual January reappointment cycle to the watershed.
Council also discussed that a small interview committee (staff suggested existing members who handled prior interviews) would convene to evaluate applicants and return recommended appointments for council action. No specific appointment was made at this meeting; staff will return with candidate interviews and appointment recommendations.
