Chair proposes special meeting to review boards' demographics and clean up council rules
Summary
The committee chair said two demographic reports on boards and commissions are available and proposed a special meeting to discuss vacancies, representation, and a rules cleanup to leave a clear set of rules for the next council.
At the end of the meeting the chair reported on two demographic products produced by the clerk's office: a dashboard listing boards and commissions with basic demographic information and a broader demographic report covering about a dozen categories. The chair said the committee should periodically review those materials and suggested a special meeting to frame work on rules cleanup and prepare materials for the next council term.
The chair also highlighted recent public hearing procedural changes that were tested in a larger hearing and said the new system kept the process moving within expectations. He asked members whether the group wanted to schedule a special call to address the demographic reports and the rules cleanup work, and said he would circulate information in advance.
