<br /> <br />Item 6 <br /> <br />MEMORANDUM <br /> <br />TO: <br /> <br />Mayor and City Council <br /> <br />FROM: <br /> <br />Tina Allard, City Clerk <br /> <br />DATE: <br /> <br />April 2, 2007 <br /> <br />SUBJECT: <br /> <br />Consider Board/Commission Appointments <br /> <br />Introduction <br />Originally commission appointments were supposed to be conducted on February 5, 2007 <br />but due to the lack of applications received the Council directed staff to re-advertise for all <br />the commissions and consider filling the open seats in April. <br /> <br />Information for applicants <br />Staff liaisons will be in contact with those who have been appointed to provide any <br />background information and to inform them of when the next commission meetings are <br />scheduled. <br /> <br />Applicants for multiple commissions <br />There are three applicants who have requested more than one choice for commission <br />appointment so you may see there names pop up for more than one commission. If any of <br />these three applicants are appointed to a commission as we go along with the appointment <br />process, we will need to remove them from other ballots where their names may be located. <br /> <br />Energy City <br />Apparendy at one time, Sherburne County appointed two commissioners to represent the <br />county on Energy City: Rachel Leonard and Arne Engstrom. This came to my attention on <br />Thursday afternoon. Rachel has submitted an application to be the representative. Both <br />commissioners will be invited to attend the Energy City meetings but only one <br />commissioner would be allowed to have voting rights according to our ordinance. <br /> <br />This Commission has historically had 13 members but it can have up to 15 members. <br />According to city ordinance the two extra appointments would come from energy-related <br />businesses. The Council should discuss if they want to add up to two more members prior <br />to voting on the applicants. <br /> <br />S:\Council\City Clerk\Board Commissions\2007\Interviews April 2.doc <br />
