Summary

Staff reported a Planning Commission seat is vacant after the passing of Mary M. Sikes and that applicant Joseph John Bartos has applied to fill the unexpired term; staff emphasized the need to appoint before the July 8 public hearing.

Mr. Hudgins, a town staff member, told the council the Planning Commission has a vacancy following the recent passing of Mary M. Sikes and that Joseph John Bartos submitted an application to fill the unexpired term.

"Joseph John Bartos had submitted an application to fill the unexpired term and noted the importance of filling the vacancy prior to a scheduled July 8 Planning Commission public hearing," Mr. Hudgins said.
