Commissioners discuss planning commission vacancies and potential appointees to ensure unincorporated-area representation
Summary
The commission discussed resignations and expirations on the planning commission and other boards, proposed candidates (Karen Ellington, Glenn Roberts, Lyle Hillier among others) to preserve unincorporated-area representation and staggered terms, and agreed to follow up on notices and replacements.
Commissioners reviewed upcoming vacancies and recent resignations on the planning commission and related boards and discussed candidates to fill unexpired terms and maintain geographic and gender diversity.
Speakers suggested moving Glenn Roberts from the board of adjustment to the planning commission and naming Karen Ellington to fill a vacancy. Commissioners discussed using an alternate seat and staggering terms so not all positions would expire at once. The item included suggestions to renew incumbents (Blaine, Tom) and to appoint Drew Armstrong to a full term; names and home cities (for example, Ellington of Springville) were noted on the record (SEG 1405'SEG 1560).
The commission instructed staff to accept expressions of interest, verify terms and publish required notices where necessary before confirming appointments.
What happens next: staff will follow notice requirements and bring formal appointment items back to the commission for final action.
