Council appoints Hunter Jones to Wood Village Urban Renewal Board
Summary
Hunter Jones, a local resident and engineer, was interviewed by councilors and unanimously appointed to the Urban Renewal Board. Council scheduled orientation and discussed possible additional community-board roles for Jones.
Hunter Jones introduced himself to the council as a Wood Village resident and engineering professional, described his interest in serving on the Urban Renewal Board and answered steps about communication and group decision-making.
"I grew up in this area... I went to Mount Hood Community College... I'm looking for a way to give back when I can to an area that's given me so much," Jones told the council during his interview. Councilors asked about leadership style, community priorities such as housing affordability, and his availability given young children.
A councilor moved to appoint Jones and the motion passed unanimously. After the vote, staff said they would arrange an orientation and follow-on briefing on the Urban Renewal budget. Council also offered to share information about a separate community-member seat on the local police board if Jones was interested.
The appointment fills a vacancy on the Urban Renewal Board and the council recorded the motion and affirmative vote without recorded dissent.
