AGENDA STATEMENT |
| | | | | | | | Item No. 5.A.
For Meeting of: May 2, 2023 |
| | | | | | | | | ITEM TITLE: | Discussion on the Bicycle and Pedestrian Advisory Committee membership rules | | SUBMITTED BY: | Sonya Claar Tee, City Clerk |
| SUMMARY EXPLANATION: | | At the April 4, 2023 Council meeting, staff was directed to bring this item back for Council review. Additionally, an email is attached from Bicycle/Pedestrian Committee Chair Jennifer Gindt requesting the rules be amended to allow one (1) Member to reside in Yakima County as long as that Member has a Property or Business within City limits. The only other Committee to allow this is the Planning Commission. As background information, on October 18, 2022 the Committee requested several changes to the membership rules including opening membership to non-City residents. The City Council determined the resident rule should remain in order to be consistent with most other boards and committees. The Council upheld this decision again on January 17, 2023 when an ordinance related to the Committee was passed removing term limits. |
