Home My WebLink AboutE- Packet 07-16-2007_(Re)Appointments to the BID (Downtown Business Imp_17 Commission Memorandum REPORT TO: Honorable Mayor and City Commission FROM: Cynthia Jordan Delaney, Deputy City Clerk Chris A. Kukulski, City Manager SUBJECT: BID (Downtown Business Improvement District Board) MEETING DATE: July 16, 2007 RECOMMENDATIONS: Make up to four (re)appointments to fill four vacancies. BACKGROUND: Montana Code stipulates that BID board members be owners of property within the district. In the past, several applicants were appointed to the board as “property owner representatives” because their property title named a corporation as the owner rather than the individual. For many years the City Commission has honored this precedent by appointing property owner representatives to the BID board. At a date yet to be determined, the BID board intends to re-examine this practice and formally recommend to the City Commission whether or not to continue this practice. Created by Resolution No. 3361 and Ordinance No. 1517, per MCA 7-12-1121, on May 15, 2000, this Downtown Business Improvement District Board (BID) shall have a duration of ten years. The Board shall be comprised of not less than five, nor more than seven, owners of property within the district. Three of the members who are first appointed must be designated to serve for a one, two, or three-year term from the date of their appointments and two must be designated to serve for a four-year term from the date of their appointments. After initial appointment, members must be reappointed for a four-year term. The BID currently has four vacancies and four applicants: 4 Vacancies: Applicant seeking reappointment: Travis Collins New applicants: Dan Himsworth Buck Taylor Dan Harding ALTERNATIVES: As suggested by the City Commission. 268 Respectfully submitted, ___________________________________ ___________________________________ Cynthia Jordan Delaney, Deputy City Clerk Chris A. Kukulski, City Manager Attachments: Board Applications 269 July 11, 2007 Dear Commissioners— As the chairperson of the Downtown Business Improvement District (BID), I would like to offer my recommendations regarding the vacancies on the BID board. Of the persons who have submitted applications to be appointed new members of the BID board, I recommend the following: Buck Taylor of the Community Health Clinic Dan Himsworth of Insty-Prints Dan Harding of Intrinsik Architecture Over the course of the past year, the BID board has made great strides towards redefining our mission and objectives. I believe that these three individuals will bring a fresh perspective to the board and make considerable contributions to the betterment of downtown as board members. Thank you for your time and consideration of my recommendations. Sincerely, Travis Collins MacKenzie River Pizza Company BID Board Chairperson -- "Losing oneself to the enchantment of a trout stream is to physically and emotionally escape the harshness of uncertainty and fear."
