ITEM: 5G
Motion and second as part of the consent agenda to make appointments to the Community
Engagement Committee.
BACKGROUND:
The purpose of this agenda item is to make appointments to the City's Community Engagement
Committee.
Each year when advisory board member terms have expired, the city seeks applicants to serve
on these boards. This item is to approve the appointments to the Community Engagement
Committee (CEC). The purpose of the CEC is to educate residents about city government and to
provide feedback to city leaders on a variety of issues.
Per the CEC bylaws, 7 to 12 members constitutes a full committee. During this year's advisory
board recruitment, the city received four applications to serve on the CEC, two incumbents and
two new applicants. All are recommended for three-year appointments to the CEC. In addition,
an applicant for one of the other city advisory boards who was ultimately not nominated was
contacted by staff about serving on the CEC. This applicant expressed interest and is also
recommended. With these recommendation, the CEC will be at full service with 12 members for
the next term, not including student representatives.
Below are the names of the applicants put forward for consideration to serve on the CEC:
