Roland chosen by planning commission to be new chair; council approval to follow
Summary
The Planning Commission nominated and voted to select Roland as the new chair; commissioners will forward a resolution to the city council for final approval. The internal vote was reported in the meeting as 3–1 with the commission preparing a resolution for council action.
Commissioners nominated two candidates for chair and voted to select Roland as the planning commission’s nominee.
During the nominations, commissioners placed Roland and Mark Thompson into contention. The commission recorded the internal vote as 3–1 in favor of Roland and agreed staff will draft a resolution for city‑council approval; the mayor/council must confirm the change before it is effective at the commission level.
A council transmittal was promised by staff; the commission discussed timing and agreed the formal appointment will appear on an upcoming city council agenda. The commission’s internal vote reflects its preference and starts the administrative process, but the final appointment is subject to council confirmation.
