<br /> 3 ) The Policy Board asked Springfield to exercise its option . <br /> to purchase the property for the pound.

Appointments to Boards and Commissions--Mr. Haws acknowledged <br /> receipt of list Commission members for reappointment, indicating <br /> attendence records. His concern was whether the excused absences <br /> created a hardship for the work of the commissions. He asked for e <br /> Council feedback. <br /> Mr. Williams said there were two sides to the question: Whether <br /> there was a hardship to the commission by those persons not being <br /> in attendence; or whether the group was doing anything worthwhile <br /> otherwise making it a low-priority meeting. <br /> Mr. Haws wondered what City policy was regarding persons being <br /> appointed to commissions and boards, then moving out of the city <br /> while they were still serving their terms. Assistant Manager <br /> replied in Council's By-Laws, a person must be a resident of the <br /> city at the time of appointment. If the person moved from the <br /> city after appointment, the person was allowed to complete his <br /> term of office. <br /> Mr. Obie returned to Mr. Haws. concern about attendence on the <br /> commission and whether the commissions were functioning, making <br /> them a low-priority item for commission members. He said it might <br /> be important, in light of the amount of money being spent on the <br /> commissions, to look at that question more thoroughly. Mr. Haws <br /> said if any Councilor wished that item to be discussed further <br /> at a Council meeting, to contact City Manager. <br /> . <br /> 11/9/77--4 <br /> g3t <br />
