Commission lacks quorum; new member appointment will enable votes in March
Summary
Staff said the commission lacks a quorum and cannot make formal decisions until a new member approved by city council attends; city council is scheduled to act March 3 and the commission's next meeting with the new member is expected March 18 (check-in March 9).
Staff informed commissioners that formal decisions cannot be made at the work session because the commission does not have a quorum. A staff member said a new parks commission applicant will appear before city council on March 3 for approval; if approved, the new member would attend the commission's March 18 meeting enabling votes.
Commissioners discussed alternatives, including holding a special meeting or moving the commission meeting earlier in March so the new member's attendance would allow action sooner. Staff agreed to add the yoga proposal and other pledge requests to upcoming agendas so the commission can act once a quorum is available. "If that application is approved [by council], then the new member will be at the March 18 council recreation commission meeting," staff said; the chair reiterated that decisions require a quorum.
