The full story

City staff summarized recent advisory-board code amendments reviewed by City Council on Jan. 12 and discussed the proposed effects for the Bicycle Advisory Board. Tyler, the staff liaison, said the amendments would change member terms from three-year to two-year terms and allow up to four consecutive two-year terms (eight years total) to align with other boards. He also explained a quorum change: a quorum will be a simple majority of current membership (51 percent), which can change based on board size.
