Summary
The commission unanimously adopted its 2026 meeting schedule and approved nominations to fill upcoming leadership vacancies, accepting Commissioner Jacobs as chair and Commissioner Schreiber as vice chair (vice chair appointment effective at the first meeting in January).
The Carlsbad Historic Preservation Commission on Nov. 10 adopted its 2026 regular meeting calendar by resolution and approved leadership nominations as several members’ terms approach expiration.
Staff said adopting the calendar by resolution helps ensure compliance with open-meeting laws and aids public participation. Commissioners discussed a scheduling question related to Veterans Day; staff clarified the city does not change its meeting day for that holiday. A motion to adopt the calendar passed unanimously.
Staff also reviewed the annual cycle for commission leadership and noted Chair Major will conclude his term in April or May 2026 after roughly eight years of service. Commissioners then nominated and unanimously approved leadership changes: Commissioner Jacobs was nominated to serve as chair and Commissioner Schreiber was nominated and approved to serve as vice chair; the vice chair appointment will be effective at the first meeting in January, per the chair’s announcement.
The actions taken formalize the commission’s governance for the coming year and ensure there is leadership in place when Chair Major’s term ends.
