Editor's note— Ord. No. 2017-2432, § 1, adopted Feb. 21, 2017, enacted a new Ch. 16.09 and renumbered the former Ch. 16.09, §§ 16.09.010—16.09.030 pertaining to provisions applicable to all boards, commissions, and committees, as 16.10, §§ 16.10.010—16.10.030.

16.10.010 - Alternate members.

In addition to regular appointments, the city council may appoint an alternate member or members to any board, commission or committee. An applicant for appointment as an alternate member shall be subject to the same application and interview procedures as are applicants for regular appointments. Alternate members so appointed shall attend each meeting of the board, commission or committee to which they are appointed, but shall participate in a meeting only in the event of the absence of the regular member. At such time as a vacancy occurs on a board, commission or committee, an alternate member is automatically eligible for appointment as a regular member, provided the alternate member is in good standing (e.g., good attendance record).
