SUBJECT: SPIN Representative Selection Process
As SPIN continues to mature, we continue to refine our procedures for accomplishing the
mission of the program. One of the challenges we have had, as you are well aware, is filling
vacancies on the Standing Committee. Filling the vacancies in SPIN Neighborhood #10 and
Neighborhood #14 has been the most current effort. The process worked very well — we had
more people involved than in efforts past -- and it seems that this is a good opportunity to
illustrate how the selection process has worked.
1) When a vacancy occurs, a letter is sent from the SPIN Chair to every resident
of the SPIN neighborhood, describing the program and its accomplishments and
soliciting volunteers,
2) A database is developed of the names of individuals who respond to the letter.
The responses include those who are interested in serving SPIN in some
capacity, or those who are interested in participating in the selection process.
3) Once the calls begin to taper off, a meeting date is set to give residents the
opportunity to select their representative.
4) This meeting date is publicized extensively. A press release is sent to area
papers, notice is placed on the cable channel, a copy of the press release is sent
to the homeowners associations in the SPIN neighborhood, Neighborhood
Council representatives are notified. Personal phone calls are also placed by
staff and the current SPIN representatives inviting residents to the meeting.
5) The meeting consists of a brief orientation of SPIN, a description of the duties
and obligations (including the Ordinance requirements and the Code of
Conduct), and a description of the support provided by City staff. The residents
are then asked to discuss who they would like to recommend to Council for
appointment. NOTE: SPIN representatives and staff attending the meeting do
not participate in this portion of the discussion and in no way attempt to
influence the outcome.
6) The name of the selected resident is then forwarded to the City Council via staff
for appointment.
Just so you are aware, the meeting held with SPIN Neighborhoods #10 and #14 had attendance
which was fairly representative of each neighborhood, as noted below:
Name Subdivision
Rita Pancake Summerplace 10
Susan Henry Summerplace 10
Thomas Essig Summer place 10
Candace Harris Southview 10
Melody Windrow Summer place 10
Tamara McMillan Mission Hills 10
Chris Williamee Diamond Circle 10
Nora Coon Oak Hill Estates 10
Al Morin Diamond Circle 10

Doug McKelvey Princeton Park 14
Bill Flaherty Monticello Estates 14
Lisa Alexander Timberlakes 14
Ted Robbins Southlake Hills 14
Pam Gagnon Southlake Hills 14
Dina Upton Hills of Monticello 14
Ultimately, the groups selected Al Morin (#10) and Doug McKelvey (#14). These
recommendations will be coming to you at your September 17 meeting. Please note that other
participants at the meeting have agreed to participate in SPIN at the Neighborhood Council
level.

SPIN 14 Needs Rep
by Terry Fox
The city announced recently
that a representative will be needed
for SPIN # 14, located (roughly)
north and adjacent to Continental
Blvd., between Peytonville Ave.
and White's Chapel Rd.
SPIN, a program to involve
Southlake neighborhoods, relies
upon representatives who are re-
sponsible for coordinating commu-
nication between City Hall and
Southlake's 16 neighborhoods.
Each representative serves on the
SPIN Standing Committee, which
meets monthly with city staff to
discuss current issues and to man-
age the SPIN program by develop-
ing policies and procedures for
SPIN administration. Four of the
monthly meetings are joint meet-
ings with the City Council, which
arc designed to promote dialogue
between elected officials and SPIN
neighborhoods by providing infor-
mation to residents through meet-
ings, producing newsletters, or by
other methods effective in the par-
ticular neighborhood.
It's hard work, but it's ex-
tremely satisfying," said Laura
Miklosko, vice chair of the SPIN
Standing Commiuee. "We are pro-
vided with all the information we
need to fully understand what is
going on with the City; we are in-
troduced to and work with all of
the players and more importantly,
we have an opportunity to make a
real difference in our community.
I would encourage all Southlake
residents to seriously consider get-
ting involved with the program."
Anyone wishing to swerve as a
SPIN representative, or wanting
more information about the pro-
gram should contact Shana
Yelverton at 481-5581, ext. 705.

MEMORANDUM
September 11, 1996
TO: Curtis E. Hawk, City Manager
FROM: Shana K. Yelverton, Assistant City Manager
SUBJECT: Southlake Program for the Involvement of Neighborhoods Standing
Committee Appointments
As you know, Karen Cienki has served as the Standing Committee representative for
Neighborhood #14 for some time. She has decided to step down since she was recently appointed
to the Board of Adjustment. Also, Betty Springer who represented SPIN Neighborhood #10 since
the beginning of the program will not be continuing as the representative. She chose not to seek
reappointment.
As such, replacements will need to be appointed. The attached resolution provides for the
appointment of Al Morin (SPIN #10) and Doug McKelvey (SPIN #14). You will recall that these
individuals were selected by those in their neighborhoods that attended a meeting held last month.
See the attached memo submitted with last meeting's packet for details on the selection process.
Recent changes in the ordinance will result in "extended" terms for these individuals. Each will
serve until December 1998.
Please place the appointment of these two gentlemen on the Council's agenda for review. I will
be happy to answer any questions you may have about SPIN and/or this appointment.
