Summary

A long-serving planning commissioner announced he will resign at the end of the meeting; the mayor/appointing official introduced Rachel Rendon, a Habitat for Humanity representative, who will be presented to city council and take a seat at the June meeting.

At the meeting the commission and board heard two personnel announcements: a long‑time commission member signaled his intention to resign at the end of the meeting, and the agency official introduced Rachel Rendon as a prospective appointee who will be presented to city council and take a seat in June.

Tim Dixon told the commission he would step down from his role as secretary for personal and medical reasons and thanked members for the experience of serving. "I'm gonna step down from my position as the secretary of the committee... So just thank you all for the experience," he said.

Separately, a long‑serving planning commissioner (referred to as Ham in the discussion) said he planned to resign after many decades of service. Officials said the city will prepare a certificate of appreciation and recognize his service at an upcoming city council meeting. "He's 97 years young now... Ham was on the original planning commission when it started," an agency official said, and asked staff to prepare recognition materials.

The agency official also introduced Rachel Rendon, who works for Habitat for Humanity and lives in the historic district; the official said Rendon will be presented to city council at the end of the month and will fill Pam Carey's seat at the June meeting.
