7. REPORTS FROM COMMITTEES, SUB -COMMITTEES, AND <br />COUNCILMEMBERS ON OUTSIDE AGENCIES <br />7.1 Technology Improvement Committee <br />7.1.1 Request for direction on committee membership and <br />appointments <br />The City Manager reported that several requests had been received from the <br />Technology Improvement Committee. One concerned attendance at meetings. It <br />seemed that a few members had missed several meetings. The Town's resolution <br />on committees stated that if a member missed three consecutive meetings without <br />approval their membership on the committee was terminated. To fill these <br />vacancies the committee was recommending that certain requirements be made of <br />potential members such as access to Email and computer background. Also the <br />committee was requesting that they conduct the initial interview of candidates and <br />make a recommendation to Council. <br />Council discussed these requests. Regarding the requirements recommended by the <br />committee, Council did not agree that an interested party should be turned away <br />simply because they don't have Email. Council also did not agree that the <br />Technology Improvement Committee should conduct an 'official' interview. The <br />4♦ <br />suggestion was made that candidates be required to attend one committee meeting <br />%W at which time the members could discuss the charges of the committee with the <br />candidate. Some Councilmembers believed this requirement was unnecessary. <br />MOTION SECONDED AND CARRIED: Moved by Dauber, seconded by Siegel and <br />passed by the following roll call vote to require potential members to attend one <br />committee meeting. <br />AYES: Councilmembers Dauber, Johnson and Siegel <br />NOES: Mayor Hubbard and Mayor Pro Tem Casey <br />PASSED BY CONSENSUS: To direct the City Clerk to check the attendance at the <br />Technology Improvement Committee meetings and to ascertain who are the <br />current members of the committee.
