City Council deferred the appointments to their first meeting in July, allowing a Council Member for District 2 to be seated. At the July 8, 2024 meeting, City Council made appointments to the various Boards and Commissions. STATUS OF ISSUE: There were not enough applicants to fill all of the positions on various Boards and Commissions so staff was instructed to re -advertise. Staff began advertising on July 9, 2024 with a deadline to receive applications no later than 9:00 a.m. on July 17, 2024. The following is a list of vacancies, along with a list of applicants: Band Commission one vacancy): Applicants are Byron Myrick & Linda Vandiver Building & Standards Commission two vacancies`.: Applicants are Sequoia Bruce, Christopher Dux, Roxann Hadley, Stacy Ladell, Alexander Moore, and Jeremy Wilson Historic Preservation Commission isix vacancies two of which are alternates with one alternate being an unexpired term): Applicants are Angie Briscoe, Matthew Coyle, Christopher Dux, Glee Emmite, Roxann Hadley, Linda Su Knox, and Kesley Turk Housing Authority appointments are to be made by the Ma or four vacancies Applicants are: Gloria Day, Derrick Hill, Allan Hubbard, Stacy Ladell, Dontrail Mathis, Joseph Nelms, Renae Stone, and Jenny Wilson Main Street Advisor Board one vacanca which is an unexpired term Applicants are Sequoia Bruce, Roxann Hadley, Millicent Kee, Kevin Moore, and Jeremy Wilson Plannin & Zoning Commission no vacancies At the July 8 City Council meeting, City Clerk Janice Ellis inadvertently stated that the two individuals receiving the highest number of points was Stacy Ladell and Larry Walker. However, those receiving the highest number of points was Adam Bolton and Larry Walker. While reviewing appointments the following day, staff realized this mistake and immediately notified City Council, as well as Mr. Ladell and Mr. Bolton. Staff is requesting that City Council rescind the vote appointing Stacy Ladell to the Planning and Zoning Commission and approve the appointment of Adam Bolton. Tax Increment Reinvestment Zone one or three vacancies — de aendin g on if the number of board members is increased — Note: Rob Vine resigned from TIRZ on July 16, 2024 (see attachment) so his unexpired term will need to be filled.

Vine, Interim City Manager TIRZ Vice Chair SUBJECT: Resignation from TIRZ Board DATE: July 16, 2024 With my recent appointment as Interim City Manager for the City of Paris, I believe it is no longer appropriate to hold a position on the board and I find it necessary to resign my position as Vice Chair and active board member of the TIRZ Board. While I will no longer be an active member, I look forward to being a resource for and working with the Board for the success of the City of Paris. Z&�— Robert G. Vine
