Virtual Meeting Voting process
The Mayor will ask a Council Committee member for a nomination. She will then conduct a roll call vote to confirm the appointment. We provided a summary sheet like our traditional ballot for you to prepare prior to the vote. This change in process is due to Session Law 2020-3, SB 704 <https://www.ncleg.gov/Sessions/2019/Bills/Senate/PDF/S704v6.pdf>, section 166A-19.24(b)(5) states “All votes shall be roll call; no vote by secret or written ballots, whether by paper or electronic means or in accordance with G.S. 143-318.13(b), may be taken during the remote meeting.”
memorandum
to: Mayor and Town Council
from: Council OWASA Interview Committee, (Mayor pro tem Michael Parker, Council Member Hongbin Gu, Council Member Karen Stegman)
subject: Recommendation for the OWASA Board of Directors vacancy(s)
date: June 10, 2020
Recommendation: The Council OWASA Interview Committee met on Wednesday, June 10, 2020 and by a unanimous vote made the following recommendation(s) to the Town Council for consideration:
- Deanie Anyangwe Appointment, Chapel Hill vacant seat
Special Request(s): No Comment
Background: The Committee recommends Deanie Anyangwe because she brings a diverse skill set and experience that is not already represented on the board. She brings a public health perspective, which is different than predominate engineering skill set.
Adam Haggerty is also a strong candidate. The Council may want to give him some consideration as well. Pamela Shultz currently serves on an advisory board, has similar technical perspectives, and the Committee is interested in providing an opportunity to another community member.
