Nicol, Colleen <br />From: Myearthlink <tpemle @earthlink.net> <br />Sent: Tuesday, August 16, 2011 10:52 AM <br />To: Nicol, Colleen <br />Cc: Priamos, Greg; Mike Gardner <br />Subject: Fwd: Charter Section 805 <br />Pls include in our matrix, thanks <br />Sent from my Ipad <br />Begin forwarded message: <br />From: "Gardner, Mike" < MGardner a,riversideca.goy <br />Date: August 16, 2011 10:30:25 AM PDT <br />To: "Tom Evans (tpemle(a,earthlink.net < tLemle@earthlink.net > <br />Subject: Charter Section 805 <br />Tom Evans, Chair <br />Riverside Charter Review Commission <br />Tom, <br />Date: 9 -19 -11 <br />Item No.: 7 <br />Charter Section 805 deals with, among other things, attendance of board and commission <br />members. The relevant portion of the section reads, "If any member of a board or commission <br />absents himself/herself from three consecutive regular meetings of such board or commission, <br />unless by permission of such board or commission expressed in its official minutes, ... the office <br />shall become vacant and shall be so declared by the City Council." <br />It is my opinion that any board or commission member who misses 25% or more of the regular <br />meetings of their respective board or commission in any running 12 month period should lose <br />their appointment. The reality is that a board or commission member who is unable or unwilling <br />to attend 75% of the meetings of their body is not providing good representation of the <br />community and is not adequately advising the City Council. I would make an exception for a <br />board or commission member who has a specific, one time, cause for their absence such as a <br />major health issue. I suggest the Charter Review Commission consider this and make a <br />recommendation as the Commission feels appropriate. <br />Thank you for your consideration. <br />Mike Gardner <br />Ward 1 Councilmember <br />7 <br />
