Consider Vacancy on Parks and Recreation Commission
BACKGROUND
On July 21, 2010, the City Council approved the appointment of Daniel Groff, current
Parks and Recreation Commissioner, to fill a vacancy on the Planning Commission for a
term ending December 31, 2010. Mr. Groff will resign his Parks and Recreation
Commission position and will be sworn into office as a Planning Commissioner at the
September 28, 2010 Planning Commission meeting, creating a vacancy on the Park
and Recreation Commission. Recruitment for all Commissioners for the 2010 -2012
term is scheduled to begin October 1, 2010.
DISCUSSION
There are two options concerning the vacancy on the Parks and Recreation
Commission: 1) Determine recruitment to fill the vacancy not be pursued at this time
due to the length of the remaining term in office; or 2) Direct staff to begin recruitment to
fill the vacancy for a term ending December 31, 2010.
Policy 2.2 of the Council's Policy Resolution No. 2010 -2892 gives the Council discretion
that a commission vacancy may not be filled due to the length of the remaining term
office.
"When an unscheduled vacancy occurs for any City Council citizen appointment,
notice will be posted not later than 20 days before or not later than 20 days after
the vacancy occurs, in the office of the City Clerk, the Moorpark Library, the
City's Home Page, local government channel, and at the City Community Center
(in compliance with the Maddy Act requirements). Advertisement of the citizen
appointment opportunity will be initiated by the City Clerk in the same manner as
for an expiring term, unless the City Council determines that the vacancy will not
be filled due to the length of the remaining term of office."
