FROM: BRUNO RUMBELOW, CITY MANAGER q7�L_
MEETING DATE: SEPTEMBER 6, 2016
SUBJECT: 4B ECONOMIC DEVELOPMENT CORPORATION BOARD
APPOINTMENT
RECOMMENDATION
City Council to consider the mid-year appointment of Matt Carnes to the 4B Economic
Development Corporation Board to fill a vacancy.
BACKGROUND
During the 2016 Board and Commission appointment process, City Council appointed Cory
Halliburton, Kirby Kercheval and Dave Simon to the 413 Economic Development
Corporation Board. Matt Carnes applied to the 413 Economic Development Corporation
Board, but was appointed to the Building Board of Appeals.
After the appointments were made, staff was notified by Mr. Simon that he was moving and
would not be able to serve his term, thereby leaving a vacancy on the 4B Board.
Council Member Coy has requested Matt Carnes be appointed to fill the vacancy to the 4B
Board. Mr. Carnes will be removed from the Building Board of Appeals which will leave two
vacancies on that Board.
A copy of Matt Carnes application is attached.
