Youth Task Force adopts April minutes, finalizes slides for joint city presentation
Summary
The New Smyrna Beach Youth Task Force unanimously approved minutes from its April 23 meeting and spent the session finalizing a PowerPoint for an upcoming joint city commission meeting, assigning slides and presenters and deciding on photos and takeaways from the Florida League of Cities Youth Summit.
The New Smyrna Beach Youth Council Task Force voted to adopt the minutes from its regular meeting held on Thursday, 04/23/2026. Chair Jessica Perkins asked, “Is there a motion to adopt the youth task force minutes from the regular meeting held on Thursday 04/23/2026,” a motion was made and seconded, and the clerk recorded yes votes from members present.
City Clerk recorded a roll-call vote with Members Kavanaugh, Lloyd, Vice Chair Maya Erwin and Chair Perkins registering in favor; the motion carried. The group moved on to old business after confirming quorum and completing the vote.
The body spent the remainder of the meeting finalizing a PowerPoint for an upcoming joint city commission meeting. Members discussed slide order and layout, decided where to place photos, and assigned who will read or present individual bullets during the presentation. Chair Jessica Perkins and Vice Chair Maya Erwin were identified as presenters for the introduction and mission statement; other members were assigned specific slides and ‘thank you’ remarks.
Members emphasized practicing slide text and using note cards so presenters can elaborate verbally rather than crowd slides with text. The task force set a plan to rehearse the assigned slides before the commission meeting and to keep slides concise with visual support, including a photo from a recent youth summit.
The task force adjourned at 4:36 p.m. with no additional formal actions recorded during this session.
