Summary

Commissioners discussed TDA vacancies: Sharon Rolan's term expired and Sam Thomas cannot attend meetings; Gary Hyatt was proposed as the Bakersfield representative and a candidate identified as 'Kennedy' was proposed for the short‑term rental vacancy, with a motion and second recorded but no vote tally in the transcript.

Commissioners discussed appointments to the county Tourism Development Authority (TDA). A board member said Sharon Rolan’s term had ended; Sam Thomas, who had been the short‑term rental appointee, cannot make meetings and the board proposed replacements.

The names proposed on the record were Gary Hyatt as the Bakersfield representative and a person referred to as "Kennedy" to fill the short‑term rental seat. A motion to appoint Gary Hyatt and the Kennedy nominee was made and seconded; the provided transcript does not contain a recorded roll call or final vote tally.

A board member noted the appointments would be for staggered terms — a three‑year Bakersfield appointment and a two‑year short‑term rental appointment — and invited any questions; none were recorded.
