Prepared by Tina Allard, Ci Clerk Reviewed by Introduction At the January 16, 2007 Council meeting, the Council decided to continue advertising for all commissions for a month and then consider filling the open seats in April due to a shortage of applicants available to fill the vacancies. Discussion Staff has been advertising heavily in different sections of the Star News paper and has also advertised on the website and newsletter over the past few months. At the January 16, 2007 Council meeting, the Council decided to change the interview process by having applicants interview at Council worksession meetings in order to make the environment less formal and more comfortable. The April 9 worksession agenda has become lengthy whereas the April 2 agenda is a little lighter. Staff is requesting to adjourn to worksession on April 2 in order to interview applicants in the Upper Town Conference Room. Financial Impact N/A Attachments · Board/Commission Applicant Update .
