BACKGROUND:
Various terms on boards and commissions will be expiring February 28,2010. On February 3rd,
City Council made nominations to the boards and commissions, following the publication of the
openings and receipt of applications, pursuant to Council policy.
On February 4th, 8th and 11 th an interview panel consisting of Councilors Clay and Heitzman and
a representative from the boards and commissions interviewed a total of 24 applicants.
After reviewing the qualifications, the committee is making the following recommendations:

DETERMINING SUCCESSFUL CANDIDATES:
A] According to Resolution No. 2206, if there is more than one person nominated for an
opening, the City Clerk shall distribute paper upon which each Council member shall write his
preference for the appointment to the opening and sign their name. Then the Mayor shall open
the paper ballots and announce how the votes were cast. If the person receiving the most votes
does not have a majority vote of the Council members present, then there shall be a second paper
vote between the top two candidates. If the vote is a tie between the top two candidates, there
shall then be an additional paper vote between the top two candidates. After a candidate has
received a majority vote on a paper ballot, the Mayor shall announce his or her name and the fact
that he or she has a majority vote. All ballots shall be turned over to the City Clerk for proper
filing.
After it has been determined who the candidates are that have received the majority Yote, their
names should be inserted into Resolution No. 6988.
To expedite the process, in the past City Council members have filled out the ballot ahead of
time and given it to the City Clerk just before the meeting. Votes are tallied with the first results
presented to Council members when the matter comes up on the agenda. If additional voting is
necessary it would take place at that time. Council may wish to follow this procedure to expedite
the process. (BALLOT ATTACHED)
B] In the alternative to the ballot procedure described above, City Council could concur with
the recommendations of the interview panel and adopt Resolution No. 6988 incorporating the
recommendations. (City Council has adopted the resolution under the consent business the past
few years.)
