Summary
The commission re-elected Chair Ellis to serve the remainder of the calendar year and elected Vice Chair Smith to continue as vice chair for 2026; both nominations passed by roll call with one absence.
During the meeting the commission held nominations for chair and vice chair for calendar year 2026. Jacob Bradberg of the city clerk’s office reminded members of eligibility rules (members may serve as chair or vice chair for no more than two calendar years) and explained the voting order.
Vice Chair Smith nominated Chair Ellis to continue as chair for the remainder of the calendar year; Ellis accepted the nomination.
