As part of our identified goal to foster and encourage civic <br />engagement, we have added youth as non-voting members to both our Planning, and Parks & Environmental <br />Commissions. This opportunity gives the youth the experience of serving on an appointed board, learning about <br />issues tasked to the Planning, and Parks & Environmental Commissions, developing leadership skills while <br />building their resume. The city benefits by hearing from youth regarding city issues during discussion at the <br />meetings. <br />The term of appointment is September 2024 through July 2025. <br />A student has now been identified to participate on the Planning Commission. <br />RECOMMENDATION <br />Staff recommends appointing Billie White as the Student Liaison to the Planning Commission.
