After interviews with two candidates, the council appointed community volunteer Brian Chase to the ranch board seat and praised both applicants’ qualifications; staff said alternates and future openings will be tracked.

The council appointed Brian Chase as Belvedere’s representative to the ranch board of directors after interviews on May 12. Chase described himself as a local volunteer with experience in nonprofit management and said he would be particularly interested in exploring higher‑margin adult programming to support the ranch’s finances.

Council members said they were impressed by both Chase and fellow candidate Madeline ("Maddie") Short — several councilors noted Short’s familiarity with ranch programming and volunteerism and Chase’s finance and program ideas. Vice Mayor Wilkinson and others said Chase’s background made him a good fit for the board’s current needs on finance and programming.

Chase said he would commit to attending meetings and contributing to program development; the council thanked both applicants and noted that alternates and future openings will be considered.
