San Leandro Council Member Handbook | 20212022 <br />77 | Page <br /> <br /> <br />APPENDIX EF <br />DEADLINES FOR CITIZEN APPOINTMENTS TO AIRPORT RESEARCH GROUPS, ADVISORY COMMITTEES AND FORUMS <br /> <br />Citizen appointments to any airport research group will be for a period of four years. <br />Appointments to any advisory committee or community forum will be for a period of two years. <br />The City Council will retain the discretion of extending an appointment as appropriate, <br />depending upon the subject and term of the group or forum. At the end of a term, an <br />appointee will continue to serve until a successor has been selected. <br /> <br />Any vacancies in any group, committee or forum, from whatever cause arising, shall be filled by <br />appointment by the City Council. <br /> <br />When an appointment is necessary for citizen representation to a group, committee or forum, <br />the City Council Airport Committee will direct staff to announce the application period to the <br />community. That announcement may be by direct mail to interested individuals or homeowner <br />groups, by advertisement in the local newspaper, or other method as appropriate. <br /> <br />Any person desiring to be considered for an appointment to any airport research group, <br />advisory committee or forum shall complete an application as provided by the City. The <br />application will request the individual’s name and contact information; present employer; any <br />City Boards or Commissions served on; relevant education, experience or training; and <br />qualifications to serve in that capacity. <br /> <br />The Airport Committee will review the applications that have been received and direct staff to <br />invite appropriate applicants to an interview by a Subcommittee of the Airport Committee. <br />Based on information provided by the applicant and the recommendation of the subcommittee <br />interview, a recommendation will be made to the City Council for the appointment by motion <br />at a City Council meeting. <br /> <br />Should the Airport Committee deem it appropriate to direct a citizen appointee to vacate their <br />appointment, such direction will be approved by the City Council, and a notice will be sent to <br />the appointee in writing from the Mayor or City Manager, identifying the date when said <br />appointment will terminate. <br /> <br />If an appointee absents themselves from three consecutive regular meetings of any group, <br />committee or forum, unless by permission of the City Council Airport Committee, or is <br />convicted of a crime involving moral turpitude, or ceases to be a resident of the City, their <br />appointment shall become vacant and shall be so declared by the Council. <br /> <br />Appointees to any research group, advisory committee or forum shall receive no compensation <br />for their services. <br />(Adopted August 1, 2005; Resolution No. 2005-120) <br /> <br />
