City council has appointed resident Cliff Wheatley to the development appeals board for a two-year term.
Wheatley submitted an application to the city clerk’s office on April 30, expressing an interest to serve on the board. To ensure the board has a full complement of members, the office recommended to city council that Wheatley be appointed as the fifth member. His term starts immediately and expires on Dec. 31, 2023, or until a successor is appointed.
Council approved the appointment during the May 10 regular council meeting.
There are currently four members on the development appeals board, but it has typically consisted of seven people, a council report said. Having a larger number of members on the board ensures that quorum can be met for meetings.
“There are still some spots available on board. If there is anyone out there (interested), it would be great to have more recommendations for this board,” said Coun. Heather Eby.
The next regular council meeting is Tuesday, May 25.
