At a Lake County meeting, board members moved and approved nominations to four advisory bodies listed on agenda item 7.2, including Central Region Town Hall, Middletown Area Town Hall, Scotts Valley Community Advisory Council and the Law Library Board of Trustees.
Speaker 1, a board member, introduced the item and noted an erratum expanding the list of bodies under consideration. "And what we'll do is we'll have discussion with the Board before action, and then we'll open it for public comment and then come back for final, motions," Speaker 1 said, describing the process the board would follow.
Nominations and outcomes: Speaker 2 moved to reappoint Atlas Pearson to the Central Region Town Hall; a second was recorded and the board approved the motion on a voice vote (no numeric tally was stated in the transcript for that motion). Speaker 3 proposed appointing Dave Campbell, Elizabeth Kershaw and Shannon Sanders as regular members and Nanette DeSanto as an alternate to the Middletown Area Town Hall; that motion was seconded and carried with a recorded tally of 5-0. Speaker 2 moved to appoint Joel Cobble and Greg Scott to the Scotts Valley Advisory Council; the motion was seconded and carried on voice vote. Speaker 3 moved to appoint Dennis Fordham to the Law Library Board of Trustees; the motion was seconded and carried on voice vote.
The board opened the item to public comment and none was offered in the room or online. Speaker 1 closed the item by stating that the item was concluded.
