Memorandum
REPORT TO:City Commission Special Meeting
FROM:Jesse DiTommaso, Deputy City Clerk
Mike Maas, City Clerk
Jeff Mihelich, City Manager
SUBJECT:Assign City Commission Liaison Assignments for Citizen Advisory Boards
MEETING DATE:December 3, 2021
AGENDA ITEM TYPE:Citizen Advisory Board/Commission
RECOMMENDATION:I move to approve the assignment of the Mayor and Commissioners to the
voting board and committee positions, to approve the assignment of the
Mayor and Commissioners as liaisons to citizen advisory boards, councils,
and committees or their designee as discussed.
STRATEGIC PLAN:1.2 Community Engagement: Broaden and deepen engagement of the
community in city government, innovating methods for inviting input from
the community and stakeholders.
BACKGROUND:Every two years after a new Commission has been seated, the City
Commission assigns themselves as liaisons to the City of Bozeman Citizen
Advisory Boards. In addition, several city boards or boards within the
community have voting positions set aside
specifically for a City of Bozeman elected official. In this unique situation,
after the election held on November 2, 2021, all current members of the City
Commission will retain their seats. The new terms will begin January 3,
2021.
On November 16, 2021, the City Commission appointed members to the
newly consolidated boards. Necessitated by the need to begin those new
meetings, the City Commission will assign liaisons to allow for assistance in
the initial creations of work plans for these new boards.
City Commissioners attend a majority of meetings of the advisory board they
liaison, acting as a conduit between the board and the Commission. Liaisons
do not vote on the board.
City Commissioners appointed as voting board members are considered full
members of the board with all associated voting and participation
responsibilities. As a member of a particular board, Commissioners vote in
their capacity as a board member, not as a Commission member.

Community Development Board - One member of the City Commission
to be appointed from its membership to a term expiring December 31,
