The Library Board Chair shall report vacancies in the Library Board to the City <br />Council, which shall fill the vacancies by appointment for the remainder of the term. <br />B. A member shall be expected to maintain a suitable attendance record. Attendance is <br />vital to board service and City Council expectations. Because attendance is <br />important, the City Council has adopted the following attendance policy: <br />Members shall be automatically removed for lack of attendance. Lack of <br />attendance is defined as a failure to attend three (3) meetings or at least two- <br />thirds of the meetings (including regular and special meetings) scheduled <br />during a rolling 12 -month period. Participation for less than three-fourths of <br />a meeting shall be the same as a failure to attend a meeting. Members <br />removed pursuant to this paragraph shall not continue to serve on the <br />Library Board and such removal shall create a vacancy. A member may <br />appeal the termination by requesting a hearing before the City Council within <br />10 days of notice of termination. <br />A standard commission attendance form shall be used by all commissions for <br />the staff liaison to record attendance. The Office of the City Clerk shall <br />forward the attendance record to the City Council at the end of each June <br />Page 2 of 5 <br />
