DESCRIPTION/BACKGROUND:
Ms. Joanne Coast was last reappointed as a member of the Marion Oaks MSTU for Recreation and Facilities Advisory Council on March 18, 2025, to serve a new term ending September 2029.
Ms. Coast has been a valued member of this board since first appointed to her role in February 2021; however, due to ongoing attendance challenges, it has been deemed necessary to move forward with declaring her seat vacant in order to appoint a new member and ensure the board remains active, engaged, and effective.
Pursuant to Commission Policy 22-01 for Citizen Advisory Boards, Section II, B. Attendance Requirements for Citizen Advisory Board Members, all advisory board members are required to faithfully attend meetings on a regular basis. If any member fails to attend three successive meetings without prior approval of the chairman of such board, or if any member fails to attend forty percent (40%) or more of all meetings within any calendar year, such fact shall be reported to the Board of County Commissioners (BCC). The BCC may declare the seat held by such member to be vacant and may appoint a new member without notice.
BUDGET/IMPACT:
None
