FROM: Chad Pickens, Chair, Stormwater Management Utility Advisory Board
SUBJECT: Recommendation for the vacancy(s)
DATE: April 27, 2021
RECOMMENDATION: The Stormwater Management Utility Advisory Board met on Tuesday, April 27, 2021 and by a unanimous vote made the following recommendation(s) to the Town Council for consideration:
• CHAD PICKENS, REAPPOINTMENT, COMMERCIAL PROPERTY MEMBER
• SHUGONG WANG, REAPPOINTMENT, RESIDENTIAL PROPERTY OWNER

SPECIAL REQUEST(s): None.
BACKGROUND: Mr. Pickens is the Chair of the Stormwater Management Utility Advisory Board (SMUAB) and was appointed to a full term in 2018 in a Business seat. He is a strong advocate of the stormwater management program and the Stormwater Management Utility Advisory Board, and he coordinated the board’s successful flood workshop for residents and businesses in 2019.
Mr. Wang is the Vice-Chair of the Stormwater Management Utility Advisory Board and was appointed to his first term in 2018 as a Residential representative. Mr. Wang’s education and work experience in water resources engineering, GIS, and remote sensing techniques provide strong benefits to the Board.
Mr. Pickens’ and Mr. Wang’s experience and continuity as Board members are valued assets to the Stormwater Management Utility Advisory Board and the Board recommends their reappointment.
Mr. Kirk works as the Project Director at the Environmental Finance Center (University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill). His background in environmental science and city and regional planning, with a concentration in land use and environmental planning, should prove to be beneficial skills to the Board.

No additional applications have been received between April 27, 2021 and May 12, 2021 for the Stormwater Management Utility Advisory Board.
