Arrange for impartial judging of nominees and selection of winners.
Coordinate arrangements with the Lion’s Club and Parks and Community Services
Department regarding the logistics for winners to participate in the 2013 St. Patrick’s Day
Parade and Celebration.
Last Year, Councilmembers Hart and Haubert served on the Committee.
At its November 6, 2012 meeting, the City Council directed Staff to return with information
regarding the decision process for determining the Recognition Event date. The recurring date
of the event, “the Friday after the second Council meeting in February” was agreed upon by the
City Council at its July 18, 2006 meeting. At its November 20, 2012 meeting, the City Council
considered an alternate date of Wednesday, February 20, 2013 due to scheduling conflicts with
other City Councilmember commitments, and agreed that the possibility of a new date can be
discussed as the recurring date continues to conflict with other City Councilmember
commitments. A calendar of City Council events for February and March, 2014, is attached as
reference to consider alternate dates for 2014.
NOTICING REQUIREMENTS/PUBLIC OUTREACH:
None.
