BACKGROUND AND FINDINGS:

 

The City Council directed staff to create the Bond Advisory Committee on March 30, 2023. The committee’s purpose will be to promote bond topics for a possible November election. The City council approved the creation of a nine (9) member committee consisting of eight (8) representatives - one selected by each councilmember and one (1) representative selected collectively by City Council.  On May 9, 2023, City Council appointed eight (8) members to the committee.

 

Currently there are eight (8) appointments of the nine (9) representatives, however only six (6) of those representatives regularly attend.  Two (2) additional citizens, Harry Sullivan and Larry Robinson, have applied to be representatives of the committee. Both applicants attended and observed the most recent Bond Committee meeting on February 29, 2024. Staff recommends filling the vacant position and appointing an additional representative with the two applicants.
