Action Requested: Approve Resolution No. 22-018, Appointing members, chairs and/or vice chairs to positions on the Building Board of Appeals, Parks and Recreation Board, Planning and Zoning Commission, Southlake Parks Development Corporation, and Zoning Board of Adjustment. 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. Members of the public indicate their interest to volunteer by submitting a completedapplication to the City Secretary's Office. Applications are available on the City's website and from the City Secretary's Office. On May 15, 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 which allows Council the opportunity toreview applications and appoint members in the months of June and October. On June 2, 2020, Council approved Ordinance No. 1228 amending member terms and providing Council the authority to appoint chairs. The City Council will not be appointing a chairman to the Planning and Zoning Commission as the Southlake Charter Section 11:03 states the Planning and Zoning Commission shall annually elect a Chairman from its membership. Historically, the Planning and Zoning Commission appoints its chair and vice chair at its August meetings following the June board appointments. In preparation for these appointments, the City Secretary's Office also sent an email to board members with expiring terms to determine interest in reappointment to their respective board or interest in a different board. The City Secretary's Office also publicized the upcoming June appointments with MySouthlake News. com and on social media. Staff also reached out to the public by utilizing the "Notify Me" module on the City's website that allows members of the public to subscribe to updates regarding vacancies and bi-annual appointments. On May 17, 2022, Council received a binder that included applications filed with the City Secretary's Office for these boards and commissions, an outline of each board detailing the current membership, terms expiring in June 2022, including vacancies, and noting existing memberswho expressed an interest to be reappointed, training and attendance records. Mayor Pro Tern Randy Williamson and Councilmember Kathy Talley provided opportunities for applicants to participate in interviews held on Monday, June 6 and Monday, June 20t" Tonight's item is the remaining action required by Council to complete the June appointment process.
