TRAFFIC SAFETY COMMISSION
STAFF REPORT
COMMISSION MEETING OF: June 4, 2007
LOCATION: NIA
INITIATED BY: Deputy City Engineer, Transportation
ITEM NO. 6D
REQUESTED ACTION: Elect a new Chairperson and Vice-Chairperson of the Traffic Safety
Commission to serve from August 2007 through July 2008.
BACKGROUND:
Each year, it has been customary for the Traffic Safety Commission (TSC) to rotate the
role of the Chairperson by electing a Chairperson and Vice-Chairperson to serve a
one-year term beginning in August. Generally, after serving as Vice-Chairperson,
the Vice-Chairperson is elected the Chairperson of the Traffic Safety Commission for the
following year.
In past years, the Commission recommended that the terms of the Chairperson
and Vice-Chairperson run from August through the following July. The selection of
the Chairperson and Vice-Chairperson is typically conducted at the June or July meeting
of the Traffic Safety Commission.
Due to the July 2006 meeting being cancelled, Susan Gardner was elected Chairperson on
August 7, 2006, to serve through July 2007. Also at that meeting, Mr. Roney was elected
as Vice-Chairperson to serve through July 2007.
In the absence of the Chairperson, the Vice-Chairperson conducts the meeting.
Commissioners Cress and Dorsey have previously served as the Chairperson of the
Commission, based upon the Traffic Safety Commission policy of having each
Commissioner serve a term as the Chairperson.
RECOMMENDATION:
Elect a Chairperson and Vice-Chairperson, as determined by the Traffic Safety
Commission, to serve from August 2007 through July 2008.
NECESSARY CITY COUNCIL ACTION:
No action required.
