Memorandum
To: Economic Development Commission
From: David L. Olson, Community & Economic Development Director
Copy: Justin Miller, City Administrator
Date: April 27, 2021
Subject: Election of Officers
In line with new board and commission appointments made by the City Council on April 1,
2021, EDC election of officers will take place at this month’s meeting.
EDC members elected in April 2020 were Quenton Scherer as Chair, Glenn Starfield as Vice
Chair, and Lowell Collman as Secretary.
For the election of officers:
• The existing chair (or vice-chair if chair is no longer on the board) should ask for
nominations from the board members. If no officers from the previous board are
present, the most tenured member of the board will handle the nomination
process. Nominations can be taken individually by position (chair, vice-chair, etc.) or as
a slate of officers. This call for nominations should occur three times (are there any
nominations; are there any more nominations, are there any more nominations). The
presiding officer shall announce that self-nominations are allowed.
• Once three calls for nominations are completed, the chair shall state that nominations
are closed.
• A vote on the positions, either individually or as a slate, shall occur. The person with
the most votes is elected.
• The newly elected chair takes over presiding duties.
Action Requested: Commissioners are asked to elect officers to serve the 2021 year.
