Jens Tripson, 2525 14th Street, former Chairman and current member of the <br />Conservation Lands Advisory Committee, appreciated what the Board was trying to do to cut <br />expenses and consolidate committees. He requested the Board keep the Conservation Lands <br />Advisory Committee intact. <br />Vice Chairman Solari felt committees should be need -driven. He suggested sunsetting all <br />committees, sending out e-mails thanking the committee members for their work, and asking <br />them to come to the Board with their committee's key tasks, so the information could be <br />reviewed for consolidation into one committee. <br />Mr. Kuvshinikov sought and received clarification on the timeframe of Vice Chairman <br />Solari's suggestion. <br />Chairman O'Bryan noted that some committees have not had an opportunity to meet <br />since this topic was noticed, and felt it might be best to let the committee members have one <br />more meeting so they can discuss this and come to a consensus. <br />Attorney DeBraal said it would be permissible for the Board, by Resolution, to sunset <br />these committees in 45 or 60 days to allow them to meet one last time. <br />Commissioner Wheeler suggested sunsetting the committees, moving forward with <br />consolidation, and coming up with a diverse group of people that would want to volunteer. <br />Chairman O'Bryan wanted to sunset the committees 60 days from today, allowing them <br />to meet as a group and come to a consensus. <br />Milt Thomas, 686 Glenview Terrace, Chairman of the Public Library Advisory Board, <br />explained the library system, supported committee consolidation, and requested the Board not <br />dissolve the Public Library Advisory Board Committee. <br />21 <br />May 4, 2010 <br />
