AGENDA CAPTION:

Present, Discuss, and Consider Action on a Resolution for Appointments to the Community Bond Advisory Committee for a Potential November 2019 Bond Program Election.

BACKGROUND:

Preparations are underway for the development of a bond program for a potential election to be held in November 2019. Community input is critical in the formation of the program and in the success of any bond program. Therefore, staff recommends the establishment of a Community Bond Advisory Committee (BAC) that will provide public input into the bond project evaluation process. Staff recommends that the committee be made up of both residents and business representatives.

At the November 27, 2018, the Council received a briefing on the proposed bond process, the role of the advisory committee, the proposed schedule for the committee meetings, as well as critical dates if the Council decides to hold a bond election in November 2019. The Council was asked to begin thinking of residents and business members that might have an interest in serving on the BAC. An application packet was provided through Survey Monkey to be used by interested residents or members of the business community, pending Council's direction. The deadline for the submission on the applications was extended to December 5, 2018. The applications that were received have been made available to the Council for their consideration.

Should the Council desire to take action, the attached resolution allows for Council to appoint members to the Community Bond Advisory Committee for the applications that have been received.

RECOMMENDATION:

Staff requests direction from Council.
