CITY COMMISSION AGENDA ITEM

Department:	City Manager’s Office		Commission Meeting Date:  4/10/18
Staff Contact:	Diane Stoddard, Assistant City Manager
Recommendations/Options/Action Requested:
Adopt on first reading, Ordinance No. 9457, adding one additional city appointee to the Affordable Housing Advisory Board, if appropriate.  (Affordable Housing Advisory Board recommends approval 11-0, 3/12/18)
Executive Summary:		At its meeting on January 16, 2018, the City Commission took action to add three additional appointments to the Affordable Housing Advisory Board.  During the discussion, the City Commission requested that the Affordable Housing Advisory Board discuss adding additional “at-large” city appointments to the board.  The AHAB discussed this issue at its March 12 meeting.  After discussion, the board made a motion to request that the City Commission consider adding one additional city appointee to the board and that the City pay close attention to diversity when making the appointment.  The motion was approved unanimously 11-0. During its discussion, the Board thought that adding a new member now, during the housing study process, would make the most sense.  This would enable a new member to take part in that process.   At its meeting on March 20, the City Commission directed staff to prepare the ordinance adding this member. Ordinance No. 9457 has been prepared which accommodates this change, increasing the number of board members from 12 to 13.
Strategic Plan Critical Success Factor		Effective Governance and Professional Administration
Fiscal Impact (Amount/Source):		None.
