Why This Vote Matters

The council filled vacant volunteer positions on three advisory boards, with most appointments approved but two facing opposition. Councilmembers Bates and Boozé voted against appointing Marilyn Langlois and Roberto Reyes, while the other four members present supported all the appointments. These unpaid volunteers will serve 1-2 year terms advising the council on development projects, historic preservation, and park programs. This is routine administrative business that keeps the city's advisory boards staffed with community volunteers.
