Meeting Date: 3/15/2016
FROM: Lee Price, Interim City Clerk
Prepared by: Heather Goodwin, Deputy City Clerk
SUBJECT: 2016 APPOINTMENTS TO CITY ADVISORY BODIES
RECOMMENDATION
In accordance with the recommendations of the Council Liaison Subcommittees, make
appointments to the City's Advisory Bodies effective April 1, 2016 as set forth below and direct
the City Clerk to continue to recruit for any unfilled vacant positions.
DISCUSSION
San Luis Obispo has a long history of involving its residents in the business of City government.
Holding a position on an advisory committee and/or commission provides an opportunity for
interested residents to participate in the governing of their community under guidelines and
procedures established by Council. The City holds an Annual Advisory Body Recruitment to fill
those positions which commence on April 1st.
This year the City recruited to fill 20 scheduled and unscheduled advisory body positions. The
recruitment was conducted between December 2015 and January 22, 2016. A total of 44
applications were received. Council Liaison Subcommittees conducted interviews during the
month of February. The following recommendations will fill 17 of these vacancies. Three
vacancies will remain unfilled on the Parks and Recreation Commission. The City Clerk’s Office
will continue to recruit for these vacancies.
No vacancies currently exist on the Jack House Committee, Personnel Board, and Tree
Committee and therefore no recruitment was held.
