SUBJECT: ADVISORY BODY APPOINTMENT FOR AN UNSCHEDULED VACANCY
ON THE PROMOTIONAL COORDINATING COMMITTEE
RECOMMENDATION
Confirm the appointment of Lori Lerian to the Promotional Coordinating Committee as
recommended by the Council Liaison Subcommittees.
DISCUSSION
Annual appointments to the various City Advisory Body Committees were made at the March
17, 2020 City Council meeting. The process for those appointments included recruitment by the
City Clerk’s office, interviews and recommendations by the various Council sub-committees,
and final confirmation of recommendations by the full Council. Applications of candidates not
selected for appointment are held for one year per the Advisory Body Handbook, for use in
appointments for unscheduled vacancies.
After two years of service, Melissa Godsey resigned from the committee as she moved out of the
City and is therefore no longer eligible to be a member, thus creating an unscheduled vacancy.
Based on application information and interview performance during the annual recruitment
period, the Council Liaison Subcommittee recommends the appointment of Lori Lerian, effective
immediately, to the remainder of the vacated term, expiring March 31, 2022.
Policy Context
The Advisory Body Handbook, last adopted by City Council in February 2018, outlines the
recruitment procedures, membership requirements, and term limits. Also contained in the
Advisory Body Handbook are the bylaws for all advisory bodies, some of which include
additional membership requirements. Additionally, the City Council Policies and Procedures
Manual, last adopted in August 2019, describes the “Appointment Procedure” and “Process” for
Advisory Body appointments. Recruitment and appointment recommendations were performed
in conformance with all recruitment procedures, processes, and bylaws found in these resources.
Public Engagement
Notification of the unscheduled vacancy for the Promotional Coordinating Committee was
posted on May 11, 2020 as required by the “Maddy Act” (GC 54972, Local Appointments List).
