ALADEAN DEROSE: All this does is state that a member of the committee need not be a member of the commission. It doesn't affect their term, which is described in the previous section, which is a one year term. So any member of the committee serves for a one year term. JOANN SPORLEDER: It still doesn't say how an ex -officio person is invited to participate on these committees. ALADEAN DEROSE: You want to make it clear that all committee members whether they are commission members or members of the community should, be appointed by the president. I will make that change in Section 1. Commission members had a brief discussion about the benefits of having an advisory board. LYNN PATRICK: In Section 2, Special Committees, the last line of that paragraph says, "The majority of every standing committee shall be constituted of commission members." In Standing Committees, Section 1, the last line of that paragraph states the same thing, is that a redundancy. ALADEAN DEROSE: Yes it is. It should read "special committee" instead. Let me summarize the revisions that have been made. 1. Under Section 1, you want to make it clear that all members of each standing committee are appointed by the president and that the standing committee members serve a term of one year. 2. Under Special Committees, you want to delete in the second line the words "or by unanimous consent" as well as in the second to the last line in the same paragraph. 3. At the end of Section 2, on the last line where it now says, "The majority of every standing committee shall be constituted of commission members." You're replacing the word "standing" with the word "special" and you also want to add "no opinion or recommendation of the special committee shall bind the commission." 4. The Advisory Board section will remain as it is. CATHERINE HOSTETLER: I move that we hold off taking a vote on this until the new revisions have been completed next month. LYNN PATRICK: Seconds the motion and it passes unanimously. 3. Minutes Proposal CATHERINE HOSTETLER: I move that this be tabled until next month. TODD ZEIGER: Seconds the motion and it passes. John Oxian abstains. 4. Studebaker Building on 637 S. Lafayette — John Oxian report JOHN OXIAN: I want to make a motion to table this until next month. MARTHA CHOITZ: Seconds the motion and it passes unanimously. V. NEW BUSINESS 1. CONTRACTS: Inspector's and Transcriptionist CATHERINE HOSTETLER: We only have one contract to renew. We received Mrs. Oxian's letter informing the commission that she will no longer be our transcriptionist the 30th of this month. We do have the inspector's services contract before us. You have a copy of it in your monthly meeting packet. It is the same contract as we approved for Wayne last year except I have asked for a ten percent increase in his hourly wage to go up to twenty-two dollars an hour. He has been with us for four years and has not had any increase in his salary. 25
