CITY OF
SOUTHLAK-
MEMORANDUM
October 15, 2014
To: Shana Yelverton, City Manager
From: Lori Payne, City Secretary
Subject: Resolution No. 14-041, Appoint members to various positions on
the Crime Control and Prevention District Board, Library Board,
Metroport Teen Court, 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. 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 to review applications,
interview applicants and appoint members in the months of June and
October.
In preparation for the October appointments, the City Secretary's Office
sent an e-mail to existing board members to determine if they are
interested in being reappointed to their respective board or if they have an
interest to be considered for another board, commission or committee.
Staff also reached out to the public by utilizing the "Notify Me" module on
the City's website that allows the public to sign up for alerts regarding
vacancies and bi-annual appointments. We publicized appointments with
MySouthlakeNews.com and an article was also included in the Southlake
Volunteer newsletter that was emailed to over 2,100 subscribers.
In preparation for the appointments, Council received a binder that
included applications filed with the City Secretary's Office for the above
mentioned boards. Council has been presented with an outline of each
board that detailed the current membership, terms expiring in 2014,
existing members who expressed an interest to be reappointed, and
applications on file with the City.
Staff scheduled two separate meetings for Council - September 23 to
review applications and October 14 to interview new applicants.
Applications received after the deadline were also forwarded to Council if
the applicant expressed an interest in serving on one of the above -
identified boards.
Tonight's item is the remaining action required by Council to complete
their October appointments for 2014.
The boards identified for appointment in October, together with the
individual board terms and vacancies (highlighted in yellow) set to expire
in October 2014 are below:
