Grant Shimabukuro has recently resigned due to relocation out of Moorpark. Staff is requesting that the City Council take one of the following two actions: 1) Make one appointment to fill the vacancy using the prior recruitment (see attached agenda report for the June 15 meeting and applications provided under separate cover); or 2) Determine that no additional appointment is required due to the fact that there are ten remaining members on the Teen Council and a minimum of one representative from each grade level from 7th grade to 12th grade (consistent with the adopted Teen Council appointment policy, which allows for a minimum of seven and no more than eleven members, with a goal of having a minimum of one representative from each grade level from 7th grade to 12th grade). 000100 Honorable City Council Teen Council Appointments September 7, 2005, Regular Meeting Page 2 Staff's understanding is that there has only been one meeting of the Teen Council held since the June appointments, so if a new appointment is made, there would be minimal catch -up time involved.
