The meeting was called to order at 5:15 p.m. by Commissioner Jimmy Hill. In attendance were

1. Approval of the minutes of the BMRC meeting of October 14, 2015.

Moved by Brotman, seconded by Johnson
Motion carried unanimously
3. Discuss the current members of the Community Development Board whose terms expire on
12/31/15 and are interested in reappointment.
The Committee decided to address reappointments of current members Linda Lanier and Patrick
Stratton prior to addressing new appointments, so a portion of Item 3 was taken out of order and
addressed at this time.
Motion: Recommend reappointing Linda Lanier and Patrick Stratton to serve an additional term
as regular members on the Community Development Board for the terms ending 12/31/2017.
2. Interview the new candidates for consideration to the Board/Committee(s) indicated.
A. Mike Paschall (for Community Development Board)
The Committee interviewed candidate Mike Paschall. The Committee offered the opportunity to ask
questions and the Committee responded to those questions.
4. Make recommendations on filling three regular upcoming vacancies and two alternate
vacancies on the Community Development Board for terms beginning January 1, 2016 and
ending 12/31/2017.
Extra time was available between the two interviews, so the Committee decided to discuss the remaining
candidates for the Community Development Board and make the recommendations. City Clerk Bartle
advised the Committee that Mr. Vincent has withdrawn his application. They discussed the applicants,
Susan Can, Steven Mandelbaum, Richard Reichler and Mike Paschall, for consideration to the
Community Development Board. It was noted that Ms. Paul is being considered for a vacancy on the
Commission, so if she is chosen for that, she would need to vacate her seat on the Community
Development Board which would then need to be filled by a new applicant. The Committee decided to
address the possibility of an additional vacancy as well as the one regular vacancy and two alternates.
Motion: Recommend appointing Richard Reichler as a regular member of the Community
Development Board for the term beginning January 1, 2016 and ending December 31,2017.
Moved by Brotman, seconded by Paul
Motion carried unanimously
Motion: Recommend appointing Steven Mandelbaum as an alternate member of the Community
Development Board for the term beginning January 1, 2016 and ending December 31, 2017, and if
a regular member vacancy occurs within 60 days, recommend that he be appointed as a regular
member to fill that vacancy.
Moved by Brotman, seconded by Hill
Motion carried unanimously
Motion: Recommend appointing Judy Workman as an alternate member of the Community
Development Board for the term beginning January 1, 2016 and ending December 31,2017.
