AGENDA #4c

 

Title of Agenda Item:  Notification of Board and Commission Term Vacancies

Background:  The attached staff memorandum includes background information on the process for establishing a schedule for nominations and appointments to boards and committees for terms that expire on June 30, 2009. A total of 83 term expirations or current vacancies are expected on this date.  Under existing Council procedures, 13 of these board and commission members are ineligible for reappointment because they have served two consecutive full terms on the same board or commission.  If the Council wishes, this provision may be waived or revised to permit longer terms of service. 

We will accept applications for vacancies through April 2009.  Unless Council directs staff otherwise, applications will be distributed in early April to boards and commissions for their consideration of applicants.  Applicable boards and commissions will provide their appointment recommendations to the Council by late April and appointments can be made at each of the four regular meetings in May and June.

Fiscal Note: None.

Staff Recommendation(s):  That the Council adopt the attached resolution to establish a schedule for nominations and appointments to boards and commissions and to the Chapel Hill Downtown Partnership Board of Directors, and the Orange Water and Sewer Authority Board of Directors, for terms that expire on June 30, 2009.
