Parks, Trails & Recreation Committee – December 17, 2024 Page 11 Chair Anderson said the attendance at Work Sessions is minimal. She is happy to be a contact as the new person is getting familiar with the role. Committee Member Johnson asked what happens if not one volunteers. Committee Member Jacobson asked if Council Liaison Holden could do it. Recreation Supervisor Johnson said the Council Liaison can’t do it and there can’t be a rotating Chair. There has to be one dedicated person per City Code. There can be a Chair and a Vice Chair. Discussion ensued and committee members were polled as to whether they were willing to volunteer. The Committee decided to move on to the next topic and return to this discussion at the end of the meeting. C. Member Terms Recreation Supervisor Johnson said Chair Anderson, Committee Member Nelson won’t be returning. He said Committee Member Dietz’ term is up but he will be signing on for another term. Chair Anderson asked if there are term limits. Recreation Supervisor Johnson said each term is three years. You can serve for three consecutive terms. Technically, if the Committee is not full, a termed-out committee member can come back. Discussion ensued regarding term limits and returning after a break. There are five members whose terms are ending in 2025. Council Liaison Rousseau thanked Committee Member Nelson for serving for nine years. She reminded him and Chair Anderson that they can volunteer on individual projects as their schedules allow. Committee Member Johnson asked how many openings there will be on the committee after the outgoing members leave. Recreation Supervisor Johnson said there can be up to 13 members, including the Youth Committee Member. Council Liaison Rousseau said she didn’t realize Committee Member Nelson was leaving. That will change the number of people needed for a quorum.
