Regular City Council Meeting <br /> Monday, March 18, 2019 <br /> Page 18 <br /> cilmember Groff's concern, that is not why she was having this conversation. <br /> She was having the conversation because of the pool and expectation of selection <br /> for each position being as important as it is. <br /> Mr. Trudgeon stated Resolution 10782, Reappointment Process and Term Limits <br /> Policy Roseville Citizen Advisory Commissions, states: "If fewer applicants are <br /> received then twice the number or openings, the City Council may establish a new <br /> application deadline and Council meeting for interviews." <br /> Councilmember Groff thought the key word was "may" and if the acting body <br /> wanted to do that, then it can.
