RECOMMENDATION
Receive an update on each subcommittee’s respective projects; and review and affirm each subcommittee’s goals and those commissioners serving on each.
BACKGROUND
The Recreation & Parks Commission has a number of active subcommittees that are individually tasked with specific projects. As part of the commission’s ongoing review of the work assigned to its subcommittees, a current subcommittee member may briefly describe the mission of each subcommittee and any projects currently in process. The discussion will provide an opportunity to inform the commission of the current progress of each project; allow commissioners to express their interests, goals, and desires to be involved in subcommittees that have a vacancy; propose new subcommittees for consideration; or modify the number of approved subcommittees. A maximum of three commissioners may serve on a single subcommittee. There are no limitations to the number of subcommittees a commissioner may serve.
