(Jeff) <br />City Council <br />Study Session Summary <br />May 9, 2017 <br />Page 4 of 5 <br />Council member Maloney likes the idea of having a subcommittee do some of <br />the legwork. He likes the written questions which can show real interest. <br />Applicants should do an application for each board they apply to. He supports <br />term limits with Council being able to make exceptions if Boards cannot be filled. <br />Council member Loo likes the idea of subcommittee.
