SUMMARY/KEY POINTS
* Advisory boards make recommendations for board appointments to the Town Council every two years.
* Four (4) positions on AEDAB are ending on April 30, 2026.
* AEDAB will need to appoint four (4) members to the board from the twelve (12) attached applications.
* Four (4) applicants will be appointed to four (4) three-year terms to fulfill the odd numbered year appointments as updated in the Town of Erie Municipal Code
BACKGROUND OF SUBJECT MATTER:
Ordinance 30-2025 repealed and reenacted Title 3 of the Erie Municipal Code regarding boards, commissions, and committees. Appointments shall occur in April of odd number of years or as necessary to fill vacancies. Because of the Municipal Code update, four (4) applicants will now be appointed seats with terms ending April 30, 2029.
Process:
* A quorum must be present.
* All members present will receive a blank ranking sheet at the meeting.
* Members will review the applications and submit their rankings to the staff liaison, who will enter them into a scoring sheet.
* The staff liaison will compile the individual scores into a single composite score, which will be used to develop the ranking.
* Members may then discuss the final rankings, if needed, and make recommendations for the open positions.
* If, after discussion, the rankings are tied for the final open position, the members present will decide the final appointee by majority vote.
* If an even number of members are present and no decision can be reached, the staff liaison will serve as the tie breaker.
New members will be appointed by the Town Council...
