October 11 , 2016
To: Shana Yelverton, City Manager
From: Lori Payne, City Secretary
Subject: Resolution No. 16-050, Appoint members to various positions on the
Community Engagement Committee, Crime Control and Prevention
District Board, Library Board, Senior Advisory Commission, and
Southlake Arts Council.
Action
Requested: Appoint members to various boards, commissions and committees.
Background
Information: Each year, the City Council appoints members of the public to various
boards, commissions and committees. Each member is appointed for a
two-year term, unless indicated otherwise. Appointed members shall be
citizens of Southlake and registered voters. Members of the public
indicate their interest to volunteer by submitting a completed application
to the City Secretary's Office (CSO). Applications are available on the
City's website and from the CSO.
In 2012, Council discussed the current appointment process for boards,
commissions and committees. At this meeting, Council directed staff to
implement bi-annual appointments to ease the process for Council, staff
and applicants. At the direction of Council, staff prepared a schedule for
appointments to occur in the months of June and October.
Currently, the CSO publicized these October appointments and volunteer
opportunities with MySouthlakeNews.com; via social media; placed an
article in the Volunteer Southlake newsletter; and sent an e-mail/text to
277 subscribers via the Notify Me module on our website. The Notify Me
module allows members of the public to subscribe to updates pertaining
to board and commission openings.
Staff members also reached out to existing board members whose terms
expire in October 2016 to determine if they were interested in continuing
to serve on their respective board or another board.
In preparation for the appointments, Council received a binder that
included applications filed with the CSO for the above mentioned boards.
Council has been presented with an outline of each board that detailed
the current membership, terms expiring in 2016, existing members who
expressed an interest to be reappointed, and applications on file with the
City.
In total, there are 19 applications included in your binder for
consideration. The boards identified for appointment in October, together
with the individual board terms and vacancies (highlighted in yellow) set
to expire in October 2016 are below:
