Council discusses hiring a communications staffer and seeks candidates for boards
Summary
Council agreed to recruit a communications position (early- to mid-career) with a requested job description and six-month review; members also flagged openings on BZA and economic development committee and encouraged neighborhood representation.
Council discussed creating and filling a new communications position and completing job descriptions for vacant committee seats. Speaker 5 urged the council to "adopt the job description and title" for the communications role and suggested the council define what it wants the position to own and request a six-month update after hire.
Council members also reviewed vacancies on the BZA and economic development committee and encouraged outreach to new neighborhoods and residents. Staff (Speaker 3) said most boards are filled but economic development was still seeking candidates. The council agreed to consider new representatives from growing neighborhoods and to move forward with posting and recruiting procedures for both the communications role and committee openings.
