A Appointment Process for Boards and Commissions
Using a voting process, the Council selected members to fill the vacancies on the City Boards
and Commissions.
B Urban Design Committee Composition
von Rosenberg noted that the Council should determine the composition in order to appoint the
members on the next Council Agenda. He spoke of two councilmembers acting as co-chairs to
provide overall guidance as was done with the previous Facilities and Services Working Group.
He noted that they would work directly with a consultant, and their work would be presented at
two public hearings before being brought to the Council for adoption. He proposed a group of
about 15 members derived from the memberships of various Georgetown organizations. It was
determined that the suggested names would be given to the Council in the packet for the next
agenda. Councilmembers Hoyt and Barton volunteered to serve as Council liaisons.
