The commission reappointed two Planning & Zoning and two Parks & Recreation members, appointed new volunteers to both boards, ratified James Goodman as the fifth pension-board member, and staff announced a Jan. 29 community meeting on Winter Park Drive and a request to send an FDOT support letter for railroad crossing grants.
At its Jan. 26 meeting the Casselberry City Commission made multiple volunteer board appointments and took ministerial action on the pension board, and staff announced upcoming community engagement and a pending FDOT grant letter request.
City Clerk presented applications and the commission reappointed Kyle Curran and Tim Beigel to the Planning & Zoning Commission with terms through Jan. 31, 2028.
