Thanks, Thelma <br />Members of Roseville's Citizen Advisory Commissions: <br />The City Council has specifically asked for your input on questions relating to <br />Roseville's Citizen Advisory Commissions. <br />The Council is looking at such issues as the size, term lengths, term limits, and mission <br />of its citizen advisory boards. Attached as background information are the Council- <br />approved minutes from the October llth Council Study Session where the Council discussed <br />these issues. Also attached is the staff report for that meeting that analyzes these <br />issues. <br />The questions the Council would like your feedback on follow. Please indicate your <br />choices by replying to this e-mail and include whatever explanation or feedback you wish. <br />PLEASE REPLY TO THIS E-MAIL AS SOON AS POSSIBLE BUT NO LATER THAN FRIDAY, NOVEMBER 5TH. <br />THAT IS A WEEK FROM TOMORROW. <br />Staff will then share your input verbatim with the City Council and, through the Council�s <br />agenda packet, with the rest of the community. <br />With the benefit of your feedback, the Council is looking at addressing these issues again <br />at their Monday, November 15th Study Session in the Council Chambers. <br />l. Do you think the size of your citizen advisory commission is <br />a. About Right? <br />b. Too Large? <br />c. Too Small? <br />Explanation, if you wish, about your choice above: <br />I THINK THE SIZE OF THE HUMAN RIGHTS COMMISSION IS ABOUT RIGHT. (A) <br />2. Do you think the length of your term is <br />a. About Right? <br />b. Too Long? <br />c. Too Short? <br />Explanation, if you wish, about your choice above: <br />Again, (A) In my experience I have found the length of term to be a good period of time. <br />3. Do you agree with a limit of two terms? <br />Or would you prefer no term limit? <br />Or would you prefer some term limit greater than two terms? Explanation, if you wish: <br />ANSWER <br />I do not agree with a limit of two terms. A term greater that two terms is preferable. <br />If two-tterm limits were implemented someone like me would no longer be serving, it takes <br />time to get programs up and running, to share concrete ideas and move them into action to <br />1 <br />
