Planning commissioners re‑elect Larissa McKelvey as chair; Ruck chosen vice chair
Summary
At the July 15 meeting, the Salinas Planning Commission held its annual officer elections, re‑electing Larissa McKelvey as chair and selecting Commissioner Ruck as vice chair by roll call votes. The commission confirmed the leadership before moving to a zoning code amendment hearing.
Larissa McKelvey was re‑elected chair of the Salinas Planning Commission and Commissioner Ruck was elected vice chair during the commission’s regular meeting on July 15, 2026. Commissioners nominated candidates, held roll call votes and approved both officer positions.
The annual elections were routine. Commissioners offered brief remarks during nominations and the chair and vice chair were chosen by majority roll call votes. The commission proceeded to the evening’s public hearing after the elections concluded.
The appointments will remain in effect until the commission’s next scheduled election. The commission next meets on August 5, 2026, at which time other agenda items — including a PUD at Northridge Mall — are scheduled for consideration.
