Regular City Council Meeting Monday,June 3, 2019 Page 45 Council Discussion Councilmember Laliberte said she wanted to be consistent with what was done on the other Commission vacancies. Councilmember Willmus agreed. Councilmember Etten indicated that was done because the City was not meeting the standard of having two applicants per position and now the City has plenty of applicants for this position and he would agree with the Commission's recom- mendation that there are several excellent people who could be pulled from that group. He would not support the motion. Councilmember Groff said he would not support the motion either because the group of applicants was really good, and the Commission felt there were many applicants that were qualified and would add to the Commission and it also delays the Council's ability to act on it by another couple of weeks. He thought for ex- pediency and getting on with it the Council should go a different direction and he would not support the motion. Councilmember Willmus thought the motion could be amended to perhaps adjust that the process be initiated, and staff reaches out to those members already inter- viewed and if there is not two of the remaining three showing interest in that posi- tion then move forward with the typical process. If there are two or three appli- cants, then the Council could choose from those. Councilmember Laliberte indicated she was okay with the amendment to the mo- tion. Mayor Roe restated the motion. Laliberte moved, Willmus seconded, to move forward with staff contacting exist- ing applicants to see interest and if less then two remain to open the process for new applicants Roll Call Ayes: Willmus, Laliberte, Groff, Etten, and Roe.
