LAMP board recommends at‑large candidate; members review shortlist and plan Sunshine Law orientation
Summary
The LAMP board reviewed more than 18 applications for at‑large seats and voted to recommend a candidate (motion recorded on the transcript as recommending 'Rhonda Brook'); members also identified several top applicants and discussed Sunshine Law orientation for new members.
The LAMP board discussed its slate of applicants for at‑large seats and voted to recommend a candidate to fill a vacancy. Board members said they reviewed more than 18 applications and focused on candidates with expertise in natural science and business.
Who the board highlighted Several members named top candidates for the natural‑science and business backgrounds the seat requires; members repeatedly mentioned David Goldman and a Rhonda (the transcript contains both “Rhonda Lovett” and a subsequent motion recorded as recommending “Rhonda Brook”), while other names cited included Trista and Ashley Summers. One board member noted that some candidates could qualify for either category based on their stated experience.
Procedure and training Board members discussed whether to make one or two recommendations and noted that nominations do not require a second. Julie (speaker 7) offered to set up a training review on Sunshine Law, public records and ethics for the new members; she emphasized that board members cannot discuss matters that could come before the board outside a public meeting.
Vote The board recorded a motion recommending the candidate named on the record (motion language in the transcript lists "Rhonda Brook"). The chair announced the motion carried by voice vote.
Ending: The board moved on to staff reports after voting; staff will continue the administrative steps for appointment processing.
