Other Business City Administrator Klaers distributed the city budget to the Councilmembers. ---------------------------------------- ---------------------------------------- City Administrator Klaers acknowledged that since we do not have any new commission members that we would forgo the 2005 orientation for new board and commission members. ---------------------------------------- ---------------------------------------- r- I Mayor Klinzing mentioned that at the Mayor's meeting someone had brought up the question of why Council is not interviewing for reappointments. She stated that she would like for us to be consistent in how we select the board and commission members and to set policy accordingly. Councilmember Farber stated that by interviewing all the people it gives the Councilmembers an opportunity to get to know these members. He also stated that he felt that without interviewing we discourage people from applying. Mayor Klinzing also stated that another issue to consider would be term limits. ----------------------------------------- ----------------------------------------- J It was the consensus of Council to bring this item back for further discussion at a work seSSion.
