This report covers the period <br />of July through December 2018. <br />Pursuant to Council policy, the City Council may remove board or commission members who <br />incur four (4) unexcused absences within the six-month reporting period. Also, Charter Section <br />901(c) provides that a member of a board or commission who absents him/herself from two (2) <br />regular meetings of such board or commission, consecutively, unless by permission of such <br />board or commission expressed in its official minutes, or fails to attend at least one-half ('/z) of <br />the regular meetings of such board or commission within a calendar year, the office shall <br />become vacant and shall be so declared by the City Council. <br />Examination of the attendance report reveals that no current members have exceeded the limits <br />for permitted absences. Therefore, the only action required is to receive and file the report. <br />STRATEGIC PLAN <br />Approval of this matter allows us to meet Goal #5. Community Health, Livability, Engagement & <br />Sustainability, Priority #1, Establish a comprehensive community engagement initiative to expand <br />access to information and create opportunities for stakeholders to play an active role in <br />discussing public policy and setting priorities. <br />1313-1 <br />
