are appointed by the Commission from among the members of the Commission, subject to
approval by the Council, for a term of one year.
Issue:
Who should the Commission recommend for chair and vice chair for 2014?
Proposal Details:
Christine Maefsky was the Chair in 2013 and Jan Hogle the Vice Chair. There are no limits on
how long a person may serve in those positions. Any member of the Planning Commission
would also be eligible for the positions.

recommendation will be considered by the Council at their February 18th meeting.
