Discuss City Council Liaisons <br /> Mayor Roe suggested individual consideration of those 2013 Council Liaisons in <br /> Attachment A to the RCA dated January 6, 2014. <br /> NorthEAST Youth & Family Services Board, Roseville Board Member <br /> While respecting City Councilmember thoughts on any changes, Mayor Roe not- <br /> ed that he was currently serving a three year term on the Board. <br /> Housing &Redevelopment Authority(HRA) <br /> Councilmember Willmus noted that he did not see the HRA board member listed <br /> on Attachment A and questioned the process for reaffirmation annually. <br /> Mayor Roe clarified that, historically, the Mayor appointment/City Council ratifi- <br /> cation was made for the term of the elected office for the board member, with <br /> Councilmember Willmus currently serving in that capacity. <br /> Councilmember Willmus advised that he was no longer interested in that ap- <br /> pointment; however, he requested that the Mayor and City Council reconsider his <br /> appointment. <br /> Councilmember Etten questioned the rationale of Councilmember Willmus: <br /> whether he no longer wanted to serve, or wanted to open up the context of the ap- <br /> pointment to that body. <br /> Councilmember Willmus responded that he was considering both; opining that it <br /> was beneficial to change that position every two years; and since he had served <br /> for two years, it provided an opportunity for someone else to step forward. <br /> Mayor Roe provided a historical perspective, with former Mayor Klausing origi- <br /> nally appointing a member of the City Council to serve on the HRA for the ex- <br /> press purpose of enhancing communication between the two bodies.
