SUBJECT:Title

Reorganization of the Planning Commission - Selection of Planning Commissioner Chair and Vice-Chair

Body

_________________________________________________________

 

RECOMMENDATION:

Staff recommends that the Planning Commission select members to serve as the Chair and Vice-Chair positions for the upcoming year.

 

BACKGROUND

At the first meeting every June, the Planning Commission selects a Chair and Vice-Chair to serve through May 31 of the following year. The Commissioner who served as Vice-Chair is customarily selected to become the Chair in the following year, and the Commissioner with the next longest tenure who has not yet served as Chair is selected to be the Vice-Chair. Due to an excused absence for Vice-Chair Dillavou at the first meeting in June and the cancellation of the second meeting in June, the reorganization was postponed to the Planning Commission’s regularly scheduled meeting on July 9, 2025.

 

DISCUSSION

The current Planning Commission Vice-Chair is Jim Dillavou. The Commissioner with the next-longest tenure who has not yet served as Chair is Rachel Hackett. Therefore, the recommended option at this time for the selection of Chair and Vice-Chair is to select Jim Dillavou to serve as Chair and Rachel Hackett to serve as Vice-Chair.
