NOMINATION AND APPOINTMENT OF COMMISSIONER TO
THE PLANNING COMMISSION
City Manager's Office
RECOMMENDED ACTION
Nominate and approve appointment to the Planning Commission.
BACKGROUND
On December 18, 2011, Commissioner Bill Kennedy resigned his position on the Planning
Commission creating an unscheduled vacancy. Pursuant to the Maddy Act, on January 9, 2012,
the City Clerk prepared and noticed a formal Notice of Unscheduled Vacancy with a deadline of
5:30 p.m. on February 8, 2012, for interested residents to submit their application for
consideration.
Five applications were received for the Planning Commission. One of the applications received
is from an individual residing outside of the incorporated boundaries of the City. The attached
list of applicants for the Planning Commission was previously transmitted by the City Manager
along with copies of the applications received, to the City Council.
At this time it is appropriate for Councilmember Kellar to nominate, and for the entire City
Council to consider and approve, an individual to fill the Planning Commission seat vacated by
Bill Kennedy for the remaining term through July 31, 2012.
It is anticipated the newly appointed Commissioner will be seated at the next regularly scheduled
meeting of the Planning Commission.
ALTERNATIVE ACTIONS
Other action as directed by the City Council.
FISCAL IMPACT
