body

 

Financial Impact:

 

None.

 

Background Information:

 

Staff recommends the Board adopt Resolution No. 02-2025 to:

 

1.                     change officer terms from fiscal year (July 1-June 30) to calendar year (January 1-December 31), and

2.                     add language specifying the timing of officer elections and the process for filling vacancies.

 

Transition (recommended): Current officers continue through December 31, 2025. The first calendar-year election will occur at the first regular meeting in January 2026; thereafter, terms run January 1-December 31.

 

Background/Discussion

 

The bylaws currently state that terms run July 1 through June 30 with the fiscal year creating an internal timing conflict with the advisory committee elections. This amendment resolves the inconsistency by aligning office terms and elections to the calendar year.

 

Proposed Bylaw Text (Redline of Section 4: Term of Office)

 

                     Current:

 

“Terms of office shall be one (1) year, July 1 through June 30 with the fiscal year.”

 

                     Amended Section 4 (if adopted):

 

“Terms of office shall be one (1) year, July 1 through June 30 with the fiscal year January 1 through December 31. During the first meeting of the calendar year, a Chair and Vice Chair will be elected by the Commission and serve for one calendar year. If an officer resigns, a new officer shall be appointed at the next meeting.

 

Note: Strikethrough = deleted; bold = added.

 

 

                     Clean final text (if adopted):

 

Section 4: Term of Office. Terms of office shall be one (1) year, January 1 through December 31. During the first meeting of the calendar year, a Chair and Vice Chair will be elected by the Board and serve for one calendar year. If an officer resigns, a new officer shall be appointed at the next meeting.”
