Regular City Council Meeting Monday,May 13,2013 Page 9 City Attorney Gaughan cautioned Councilmembers that he was not sure if the term dates were not addressed by City Ordinance, and if so, it would not be ap- propriate to deviate from that provision by motion at tonight's meeting without seeking to amend the motion accordingly. Mayor Roe concurred, suggesting that staff and the City Attorney review ordi- nance language, and if amendment was indicated, return at a later date, based on their further research on extending youth commissioner terms. Willmus moved, Etten seconded, reappointment of Youth Commissioner Joan Dao and appointment of Ms. Julia Laden as Youth Commissioner to the Human Rights Commission for terms expiring July 31, 2014. Roll Call Ayes: Willmus; Laliberte; Etten; McGehee; and Roe. Nays: None. 9. General Ordinances for Adoption 10. Presentations a. Joint Meeting with Planning Commission Mayor Roe welcomed Planning Commissioners John Gisselquist, Michael Bo- guszewski, Gerald Olsen, Shannon Cunningham, Robert Murphy, Robert Stellmach and James Daire to this joint meeting; and expressed his appreciation that all Commissioners were in attendance. Chair Gisselquist introduced himself and thanked Mayor Roe and Councilmem- bers for providing this joint meeting opportunity each year; and introduced Vice Chair Boguszewski, with fellow Commissioners introducing themselves. Chair Gisselquist noted that there had been a significant change in membership over the last year, with the departure of one member due to expiration of that term, and two other members moving outside of Roseville; and expressed appreciation in having "new blood" and new viewpoints for discussions at meetings. Chair Gisselquist referenced the RCA date May 13, 2013, with an overview of the Commission's accomplishments, and several questions or concerns for discussion between the bodies. Chair Gisselquist noted one area of concern, in addition to the Commission's standard role in the land use public hearing process, was previous comments of Councilmember McGehee that the Commission should play a more active role in land use, planning and zoning processes. Chair Gisselquist noted that this had created some confusion and concern of the Commission as to their role and re- sponsibility in initiating such issues, and if so, what that role should be.
