City Charter <br />Section 901, which was amended by the voters in November, 2006, provides that <br />two consecutive unexcused absences from regular meetings would result in the <br />vacation of a board or commission position. <br />In addition to this provision, City Charter Section 901(c) provides that if a <br />member fails to attend at least one-half {1/2) of the regular meetings of <br />his/her board or commission within a calendar year, the office shall become <br />vacant and shall be so declared by the City Council. <br />Examination of the attendance report for calendar year 2007 revealed that one <br />member of the Environmental and Transportation Advisory Committee and one <br />member of the Youth Commission failed to attend at least one-half of the <br />regular meetings of the respective committee or commission. Both members have <br />subsequently resigned, and at this time, the only action required by the <br />Council is to receive and file this report. <br />FISCAL IMPACT <br />There is no fiscal impact sociat d with this action. <br />~, _ <br />Patricia E.
