SUBJ: Park & Recreation and Environmental Commission Interviews
During Monday night's work session, the Council will interview the following applicants
for the Park & Recreation Commission and Environmental Commission:
5:30 p.m. — Jim Boettcher, Park & Recreation Commission (incumbent)
5:45 p.m. — David Hess, Environmental Commission
6:00 p.m. — Mark Herzog, Park & Recreation Commission
6:15 p.m. — Break
6:30 p.m. — PJ Williams, Park & Recreation Commission
POSITIONS AVAILABLE
Park & Recreation Commission:
• Two 3 -Year Positions: The term of Commissioner Jim Boettcher is expiring and
he has applied for reappointment. With the election of Elise Ryan to the City
Council, a vacancy was created on the commission, and her term would have
expired at the end of March as well.
• One or Two 1 -Year Youth Positions: The terms of Youth Commissioners Jacob
Stolar and Tyler Kobilaresik are expiring. As both are graduating from high
school in the spring, they will no longer be eligible to serve as youth
representatives. The commission bylaws allow for either one or two youth
positions and only one application has been received.
At the last meeting, the council interviewed three applicants for the Park & Recreation
Commission (Jennifer Hougham, Robert Macuna, and Lauren Dale). PJ Williams
apologized for not attending his scheduled interview on March 23, but was unable to
because of a delayed flight. His interview has been rescheduled for April 13 at 6:30 pm,
and he will do his best to attend, but it may be difficult due to his work schedule that day.
He understands that if he does not make it that he probably would not receive an
appointment. Additionally, Mark Herzog was unable to attend his interview with the
Park & Recreation Commission due to illness and therefore the commission has not met
Mr. Herzog.

Environmental Commission
• Three 3 -year positions are available.
Only one application for the Environmental Commission was received. On March 9, the
City Council reappointed incumbent Bret Borth to a three-year term and asked staff to re -
advertise the vacancies. Applications were accepted through April 3rd and one person has
applied (David Hess). Knowing that there were not enough candidates for the number of
vacancies on this commission, the council asked people who were interviewing for other
commissions if they would be interested in a position on the Environmental Commission.
Robert Macuna expressed interest in an appointment wherever needed.
The application forms and scoring sheets are attached. Appointments will be made at the
regular meeting.
