City Council Meeting Minutes November 27, 2018 Page 9 of 12 City Attorney Kelly introduced the item and Mayor Muckle opened the public hearing. Director Zuccaro stated this item is before City Council to update the impact fee schedule to adjust the library fee specifically. With repayment of the library bond on December 1, the City needs to remove the debt service payment. He noted there is still a materials impact fee that has been reduced significantly. Public Comments — None. Close public hearing. Councilmember Maloney moved to approve Ordinance No. 1767, Series 2018; Mayor Muckle seconded the motion. Vote: Motion carried by unanimous roll call. RECOMMENDATION FROM BOARD AND COMMISSION APPLICATION REVIEW COMMITTEE REGARDING APPOINTMENTS AND INTERVIEWS Clerk Muth stated the City Council appointed Mayor Muckle and Councilmember Leh to review the written applications for board and commission vacancies. The committee met on November 16 to review the applications. In the packet a spreadsheet shows the Committee recommendations that includes appointing some applicants with no interview; discuss the options for the Revitalization Commission; and set interviews for December 10 for those applicants for the Library Board of Trustees who were not appointed to other boards. Interviews can also be held for the Cultural Council applicants if Council would like. Muth noted any position not filled in December will be reopened for applications in January. City Council will vote on the final board appointments on December 18 and new member terms will begin in January. Councilmember Leh stated that as usual we have applicants that are unbelievably qualified and interested in spending time to help the City. The Committee feels it is not necessary to interview those applicants where there are obvious appointments but want to interview where it makes sense. Mayor Muckle stated there are a fair number the Committee recommends appointing without an interview where they feel it is a good fit. The Library Board of Trustees (LBoT) has all good applicants so the Committee feels we need to interview those folks. While the interviews are good, he noted many of the applicants have already served on these boards and have much to offer so an interview won't change how we handle these applicants. For those we recommend for appointment who didn't originally apply for those positions, they did note they would be willing to serve on other boards. 34
