UR A members note ethics training, reaffirm plan to await city appointment for vacant seat
Summary
Board members reported completing Oregon Government Ethics Commission training and reiterated a prior consensus to wait for the city to appoint the final Urban Renewal Agency member; board said they had notified applicants of the pause in recruiting.
Members said they completed the Oregon Government Ethics Commission training and discussed earlier minutes that recorded a consensus to wait for the city-appointed board member before advancing onboarding for the archway project.
The chair noted the agency received a certificate of completion for the ethics training and reminded members of the February 10 consensus to wait before adding the final board member. One board member said applicants should have been notified of the delay; the chair confirmed a letter was sent and the city later appointed Kathy Van Dam to the vacancy. Members emphasized fairness to a future appointee in bringing them up to speed on ongoing items such as the archway project.
Board members also asked staff to review the February 10 minutes if there were questions about the prior consensus. No formal action was taken at this meeting on appointments; the discussion was informational and procedural.
