BACKGROUND
In accordance with California Education Code Section 18911 and Moorpark Municipal
Code Section 2.70.030, the initial appointment to the Library Board was for five
members to serve staggered terms. The first board was appointed beginning July 2011 ,
so that one member would go out of office June 30, 2012; two members would go out of
office June 30, 2013, and two members would go out of office at the end of June 2014.
Thereafter, the staggered term for Library Board Members is for three years.
Recruitment to fill the two (2) vacancies for the second appointment term expiring in
June 2013, for Library Board Members Abigail Sichmeller and Robert Perez, ended on
May 3, 2013, at 5:00 p.m; and due to resignations received from Library Board
Members Cindy Housel and Steven Wolfson whose terms were to expire in June 2014,
a recruitment to fill these two (2) vacancies also ended at 5:00 p.m. on May 3rd.
California Education Code Section 18913 and Moorpark Municipal Code Section
2.70.030 state that if a vacancy occurs otherwise than by expiration of a term of office it
shall be filled for the unexpired portion of the term.
