Ii I I I I I I I I I [ I I I I I I i I CASE #: P~-"~'~ COMMISSION APPOINTMENT PROCESS By: Linda Waite Smith, Administrative Services Manager Background: On February 13, 1996, the City Council directed me to study the process used to select members of the City's commissions, including Planning, Economic Development, Park & Recreation, and Charter. The assignment included examining and recommending a process for interviewing applicants, the most important criteria for members of various commissions, the optimum number of seats fol' each commission, and whether someone should be allowed to serve on two commissions simultaneously. On April 9, 1996 I presented my report and recommendations to the City Council.. I was directed to gather additonal information about qualifications the City should seek in commissioners. By the time of the June 11 Council meeting, each commission will have had the opportunity to give me additional ~information. Because the Planning Commission and Economic Development Commission meetihgs fall on June 4 and 6, respectively, the information is not available at the time the June 11 Council agenda is being prepared. The information will be available at the meeting. Council Action: Based on discussion. Reviewed By: City Administrator Administrative Services Manager Copies also distributed to: CC 06/11/96 qW'7
