Commission elects Jan as chair, James as vice chair and names Tim secretary

The Parks & Recreation Commission opened by electing its leadership for the coming term, appointing Jan as chair, James as vice chair and Tim Daniels as secretary.

At the meeting the commission took nominations and the chair called for voice votes. A commissioner nominated Jan for chair and the commission approved the nomination by voice. When James was nominated for vice chair he accepted and the commission approved that appointment. Commissioners then nominated Tim Daniels for secretary and approved the nomination by voice; no roll-call tallies were recorded in the transcript.

The appointments were presented as routine governance items during the regular meeting. Commissioners emphasized the need for clear communication about agendas and staff support going forward so the newly elected officers can lead with up-to-date information.
