Agenda Item Brief:

Committee appointments.



Background:

The Regional Planning Governing Board is responsible for regional planning policy issues and adopts the Regional Plan based on recommendations put forward by the Regional Planning Commission.  The Board has ten members; three from Washoe County; four from the City of Reno; and three from the City of Sparks.

 



Analysis:

The City of Sparks’ 3 appointments to the Regional Planning Governing Board are staggered, three-year terms.  Each appointee is an elected official; the current members are Mayor Geno Martini; Council Member Ed Lawson; Council Member Charlene Bybee and Council Member Donald Abbott, as an alternate.  

Mayor Geno Martini has resigned from the board, and has recommended that Donald Abbott take his place (Mayor Martini's term is 7/1/15 - 6/30/18).

Donald Abbott's reassignment would create a vacancy in the "alternate" position.   The person appointed to the alternate position would serve the remainder of a term of: 11/28/16 - 1/30/19.



Alternatives:

Council could give other direction.



Recommended Motion:

I move to appoint Council Member Donald Abbott to the Regional Planning Governing Board for the remainder of a three-year term to June 30, 2018; and appoint _________________as an alternate to the board, filling the remainder of a three year term to January 30, 2019.
