Motion by Mayor Ramsey, seconded by Chairperson Jeffrey, to recommend that the City <br />Council approve the following changes to the Policy for Appointing Board and Commission <br />Members: <br />1. Incumbents and new applicants will be considered in one collective recruitment, <br />interview and selection process. Previously, incumbents were considered for re- <br />appointment in a separate process prior to new applicants being considered. <br />2. Term expiration dates will be adjusted for current and future board and <br />commission members to March 31 which will allow incumbents to continue to <br />serve without interruption until any newly elected City Council Members take <br />office and official action is taken on board and commission appointments. <br />3. Applicants will be interviewed by the full City Council and the City Council will <br />consult with the chair and vice chair of each board or commission regarding <br />appointments; however, the final decision regarding appointments will rest with <br />the City Council. <br />4. If there are more than five applicants for a vacancy, the City Council will screen <br />the applications and select five applicants to be interviewed. <br />Motion carried.
