Approval of minutes A. Approval of the minutes of the Board Member Review Committee Meeting on November 17, 2016. Motion: Approve minutes of the Board Member Review Committee meeting on November 17, 2016. Moved by Lada, Seconded by Brotman Motion Carried unanimously B. Approval of the minutes of the Board Member Review Committee Meeting on January 19, 2017. Ms. Lada inquired why it was necessary to take minutes at the informational meeting. City Clerk Bartle explained the requirement. 2017. Moved by Lada, Seconded by Brotman Motion Carried unanimously 2. Courtesy of the Floor to Visitors Chris Jorgensen, 92, W. 3rd St., expressed concern about scheduling conflicts when two city board/committees meet at the same time. Commissioner Stinson explained Interim City Manager Hogencamp is handling those conflicts and has committed that those type of conflicts will not occur again. Judy Workman, 787 Vecuna Rd., stated that she was there to find out what the Board Member Review Committee’s function is. She expressed concerns about the way the board chairs are elected and lengthy tenures of members. Commissioner Stinson explained the Board Member Review Committee interviews interested applicants and makes recommendations to the City Commission about appointing members. He further explained the Committee’s current efforts to improve the process and standardize boards and committees. He stated he would look into Ms. Workman’s concern regarding the election process and get back with her. 3. Discuss the concepts proposed by the board chairs and liaisons to improve board recruitment and retention. Commissioner Stinson referred to the minutes from January 19, 2017, noting they do a great job of detailing the concepts proposed by the board chairs and liaisons. He gave an overview of the recommendations that were made by the combined group. Commissioner Stinson explained all the boards/committees are an integral part of the process on improving the way in which they recruit, retain, mentor, train and evaluate prospective board members and then make recommendations. He explained the Board Member Review Committee will need to discuss how they should integrate into the overall plan. Recruitment Commissioner Stinson asked members for suggestions on how this Committee can improve its recruitment. Mr. Brotman spoke about having the members recruit and recommend someone to replace them. Commissioner Stinson agreed that it would be a great tool to have board members recruit by making recommendations for a replacement six months before their tenure ends. Ms. Lada spoke about producing a pamphlet that addresses board requirements as well as initiating a marketing plan. She suggested setting up booths at some of the community events, such as Art Walk or Arts in the Park, that draw a large portion of people from the community to recruit. Ms. Bartle mentioned there was a lack of board applicants from the west side of Mayport Road in the past and that the new Farmer’s Market on Mayport Road may be a venue that could serve as a resource for recruitment as well. Ms. Lada expressed she would like to see a consolidated list of City events and then suggested working with the other boards to have a representative at each of those events. She believed that by taking a rotational approach in doing some education, it would not be burdensome on any one person or any one board and they would have shared responsibility. Commissioner Stinson asked whether the Board Member Review Committee should be made up of Chairs from the various boards/committees or have board service with the City of Atlantic Beach before being appointed to this Committee. Ms. Lada expressed while she could understand the qualities that having previous board service may lend, it is more important to educate interested members about what the different boards/committees do and how they function. She stated she did not feel that it was necessary for incoming members to have previous service on a board/committee to understand its purpose. Commissioner Stinson agreed it may be more important to look at what the perspective board members motives and qualifications are for serving. He asked whether this Committee should be involved in interviewing candidates interested in serving on the Board Member Review Committee and make recommendations to the Mayor. Mr. Brotman explained why he did not believe it would be helpful to the Mayor. He suggested that if the Mayor requested nominations for perspective board members that would be appropriate. He also stated he would not have been able to serve on this committee had there been a requirement of previous service in Atlantic Beach. Discussion ensued about reviewing the ordinances; changing the rules related to committees and boards to make them consistent throughout; and streamlining the process for appointing members. Mr. Brotman stated he would like to see all the boards and committees have the same exact rules. Commissioner Stinson agreed and reported his plan to use the City Attorney’s help with standardizing the various boards and committees. Mr. Brotman addressed Mr. Jorgensen’s concern, explaining the need to schedule the different board meetings so there are no conflicts. Ms. Workman stated she attends various board meetings and commented that each board does not know what the other boards are doing. She believes that the boards are not a cohesive element. She further stated very rarely does she ever see members of the other boards at Commission Meetings and felt that they do not know what the repercussions of their decisions are to the Commission and vice versa. She questioned how many board meetings a person attends before applying to that board. Mr. Brotman asked Ms. Bartle if the Committee and Board meeting minutes are placed in the Commission agendas packets. Ms. Bartle stated they are not. She explained the minutes are online and various meetings are video-taped and accessible on the City’s website. Mr. Brotman asked if the minutes from all the various boards could be placed in the Commission packets and sent electronically. Ms. Bartle stated it is customary that they put only the items that the Commission will be addressing in the packet and can access all of the meeting minutes at any time on the website. Mr. Brotman suggested that the Commission be reminded about what the various boards are doing. Commissioner Stinson asked Mr. Brotman if he was asking that we share the individual committee’s and board’s agendas and minutes with the Commission. Mr. Brotman stated yes, so that they know what is going on downstream from them. Ms. Bartle understood Ms. Workman’s concern to be that the people on the boards do not know what the other boards are doing. Ms. Workman stated she felt that the written word does not depict exactly what took place and believes you almost have to see it. She explained that the Mayor sat in on the last Community Development Board Meeting and observed the workings of the board. She felt that needs to be done once in a while just to see the dynamics of the personalities and what is going on. She expressed concern about the way they vote. She believes they should be asking questions and doing homework on the things that they are voting on. Commissioner Stinson summarized the list of the high points from the previous meetings minutes. Training Ms. Lada spoke about specialized training and the need to understand special requirements so that the BMRC can ask those things of the perspective candidates as well as other pertinent questions. She believes training should be a requirement and that there be a deadline associated with it. Commissioner Stinson suggested that it could be a part of the evaluation process. He spoke about the Board Member Review Committee defining a schedule for the coming year so people can plan. There was discussion about utilizing online training for Sunshine Law and Ethics and possibly making it public by providing the link on the City website and in the City newsletter. Mentoring They discussed the concept of having outgoing members mentor incoming members and Sunshine Law. Commissioner Stinson indicated he would ask the City Attorney about the limitations and regulations on communications between elected officials and committee/board members. Evaluation Commissioner Stinson spoke about videotaping the meetings, ranking the interviewees and having representatives from each board and committee present an annual report to the City Commission. Ms. Bartle referred back to Mr. Brotman’s inquiry about each boards minutes being placed in the agenda packet and suggested, rather than putting all of the minutes in the packet, including a list of all of the boards and committees with the times that they met and instructions on how they can locate the minutes on the website. Mr. Brotman explained the need to inform the Commission about what the boards/committees are doing. Commissioner Stinson stated that one of the committees mentioned they wanted to come before the Commission and give a short synopsis of what they had accomplished because the acknowledgement and recognition by the Commission was important to recruitment. Discussion ensued about standardizing the rules to include each board and committee giving an annual report to the Commission. Ms. Lada reported that the evaluation side of this process drew differing opinions. She spoke about the need to evaluate as to whether you have an effective board or committee or not explaining the importance of the attendance report, self-evaluation, and having the board/committee chair evaluate each member. Mr. Brotman suggested they contact Rena Coughlin, an Atlantic Beach citizen, who owns the Non- Profit Resource Center of Northeast Florida for the forms they may need. Ms. Bartle stated the evaluations would have to be public record. Ms. Lada stated the purpose for the evaluations is to receive constructive feedback. Commissioner Stinson stated he will reach out to Ms. Coughlin and see if she can come to our next meeting. Retention Commissioner Stinson reported on the previous suggestions which included recognizing members with plaques and certificates at Commission meetings; moving the Cultural Arts and Recreation Advisory Committee meetings to the Commission Chamber; expanding and normalizing the use of alternates for all boards and committees and possibly restructuring the Cultural Arts and Recreation Advisory Committee due to lack of participation and difficulties meeting a quorum. Mr. Brotman explained why he believed the Cultural Arts and Recreation Advisory Committee should be two separate Committees. There was a discussion about Sunshine Laws and alternates. Discussion ensued about the Board Member Review Committee coming up with an overall plan and giving it to the City Attorney to standardize across all the boards and committees. Commissioner Stinson requested that Ms. Bartle send the Board Member Review Committee members all of the governing documents that created each Committee and how they are structured. Ms. Bartle stated she would resend the Board Member Review Committee Notebook by email. There was consensus from the Committee to utilize city email addresses (coab.us) for each Board and Committee member. There was further discussion about the process. Chris Jorgensen, 92, W. 3rd St., thanked Commissioner Stinson for his time. He would like to see the Cultural Arts and Recreation Advisory Committee meet in the Commissioner Chamber and the Board Member Review Committee contact the selected candidate(s) while the meeting is still in session. He spoke against expanding boards. He wants to see more use of technology in board meetings and notices of meetings posted on the bulletin board at Tideview Park. He complimented the work of this Committee and the combined group for their recommendations from the last meeting. He spoke about the importance of planning in advance for loss of members. Judy Workman, 787 Vecuna Rd., explained her understanding of what the Board Member Review Committee (BMRC) is responsible for. She expressed concerns about the members of the BRMC not attending any other board/committee meetings in order to understand their function and dynamics. She explained she is currently an alternate member of a board and is very frustrated to the point that she does not want to be a member anymore. She would like to see candidates who are educated and do some homework be appointed to boards. She stated we need free thinkers, not inbred people. She questioned whether the Board Member Review Committee process looks for that. She believes the BMRC needs to be functional and make the other boards better, or it should be disbanded. Commissioner Stinson responded to Ms. Workman’s concerns and explained the Board Member Review Committee’s current process and goal to improve all of the boards and committees. He thanked Ms. Workman for her comments. Ms. Bartle stated it also includes improving the Board Member Review Committee. Mr. Brotman expressed his pleasure and honor to serve on the Board Member Review Committee. Commissioner Stinson thanked Mr. Brotman for his excellent service to the Board and wished him well. Ms. Lada thanked Mr. Brotman as well. Adjournment There being no further discussion, Commissioner Stinson declared the meeting adjourned at 7:30 p.m. _______________________________ John M. Stinson Chairman MINUTES City of Atlantic Beach Board Member Review Committee April 6, 2017 THOSE IN ATTENDANCE: John Stinson – Chair of the Board Member Review Committee Jennifer Lada – Member of the Board Review Committee (Arrived at 6:08) Grant Healy – Chair of the Cultural Arts and Recreation Advisory Committee. Ben de Luna – Chair of the Code Enforcement Board Brea Paul – Chair of the Community Development Board Staff: Donna Bartle – City Clerk & Non-Voting Member of the Board Member Review Committee Brenna Durden- City Attorney Victor Gualillo – Chair of the Police Officers’ Pension Board of Trustees Timothy Johnson – Staff Liaison to the Cultural Arts and Recreation Board Committee. Derek Reeves – Staff Liaison to the Community Development Board Dayna Williams – Secretary for the Code Enforcement Board. Call to Order Commissioner Stinson called the meeting to order at 6:04 p.m. 1) Courtesy of the Floor Commissioner Stinson opened Courtesy of the Floor. Chris Jorgenson 92 W 3rd St., thanked Commissioner Stinson for holding these very important meetings. 2) Attendee Self Introductions It was determined that everyone know each other so introductions were not needed. 3) Unfinished Business a) Review of typical annual timeline for board member selection and appointments. Commissioner Stinson reported the timelines as follows:  January 1st would be the effective date for terms and there would be alternating expiration dates to maintain consistency;  Work through the year with mentors;  Recruitment during the third quarter;  Interviews and appointments approved by Commission in October;  Training in November to be ready to take their seat on January 1st; and  Board Appreciation in December. The Committee discussed the timeline, length of terms, term limits for each board and committee, and the idea to standardize terms. 1 City Attorney Durden reported the length of terms and term limits as follows: Code Enforcement Board: Serve 3 year terms, 3 year term limit. Community Development Board: Serve 2 year terms, 4 year term limit. Pension Boards of Trustees: Serve 4 years, no maximum term limit. Cultural Arts and Recreation Advisory Committee: Serve 2 years, 2 year term limit. Board Member Review Committee: Chair’s serve a 1 year term, no maximum term limit. Members 2-4, Serve 2 year terms, 2 year term limit. 5th member rotates. 6th member is the City Clerk, no maximum term limit. City Attorney Durden stated she felt that the four year term for the Pension Board is different because they are highly specialized and come with a fiduciary responsibility. She felt that a shorter three year term might be more appropriate for other boards and stated that it is good to have some turnover in order to have a new perspective. Commissioner Stinson introduced Judith Leroux, Chair of the Beautification and Natural Resource Preservation Advisory Committee. After a lengthy discussion, the Committee decided that terms and term limits do not need to be the same for all the boards/committees and to continue with allowing termed out members to come back to the same board after sitting out for one year. The Committee spoke about changing alternates so that they can fill regular member vacancies without going back through the process. b) Presentation of the Board Member Review Committee synopsis recommendations to the group. Commissioner Stinson explained the BMRC recommendations were provided to everyone and explained he would like to hear the comments from the other Boards and Committees. c) Capture individual board recommendations and requests regarding recruitment, training, mentoring, evaluation and retention as charged in the Board Member Review Committee meeting of the 19th of January 2017. i) Code Enforcement Board Mr. de Luna reported the recommendations were not discussed with the Code Enforcement Board yet, but should be discussed at the next meeting. He spoke in support of recruitment and training. He explained that the last Code Enforcement Board meeting was very long so his board was unable to discuss recommendations, but plans to address it at their next meeting. He spoke in support of recruitment and training and liked the idea of former members mentoring incoming members. Mr. de Luna believed the board chair should play an integral part in the selection of the members to their particular board. 2 The Committee spoke about standardizing the attendance policy, defining excused and unexcused absences among all boards and committees, and ways to document absences. ii) Community Development Board City Planner Reeves stated his group individually commented on specific ideas regarding recruitment, training, mentoring, evaluation and retention. He reported the following comments from Community Development Board members: Board Member Linda Lanier  Liked the idea of community development activities;  Mentioned that Jacksonville Beach does an annual bus tour with their residents, where specific staffers visit different parts of the city like the utilities plant and the public works yard to help them understand how the city functions;  Believed it would be beneficial to have a manual given to new board members to explain their role, responsibilities and procedures of specific boards;  Would like to see regular training for Sunshine Laws and Ethics;  Liked the idea of the mentor program but expressed concern about the Sunshine Law issues;  Approved of the evaluation process;  Likes the annual reception and awards for retention, but felt that retention was the lowest priority issue to be addressed; and  Would like a push to get younger generations active on boards. Board Member Kelly Elmore  Agreed with all of those points. Board Member Sylvia Simmons  Agreed with all of those points  Added that she thinks there has been a reduction in Ad Hoc Committees, (short-term/temporary committees), which has reduced the number of people interested in serving, because they provide a breeding ground to gain some experience in public service for a short term and might help them do a longer term commitment.  Expressed there should be diversity among the boards, not only including professionals but active community members serving as well, to advocate community interests.  Believed that, for the Community Development Board, there should be an educational component for the legal ramifications of the decisions they make. Board Member Kelly Elmore  Agreed with the legal suggestion from Ms. Simmons. Chair Brea Paul  Agreed with Ms. Lanier about bringing in the younger generations; and  Suggested finding a way to bring professionals to the board. Board Member Sylvia Simmons  Countered Ms. Paul’s suggestion regarding professionals, noting that we do not want just professionals on boards; wants active community members who have a desire for a certain outcome for the community. 3 Ms. Paul spoke about the need for training on ethics and the Sunshine Law and the ramifications for decisions they make. She reported the board supports recruitment, mentoring, and evaluation. She added, she would like to encourage citizens to come and speak at the Community Development Board meetings during public comments. iii) Cultural Arts and Recreation Advisory Committee Recreation and Special Events Director Timmy Johnson stated he did not get any comments from the Committee, but he and Mr. Healy had a discussion about alternates and reducing the number of members. They want to reduce the number of members to seven and add one alternate. They also requested a reduction in the number of meetings. Mr. Healy spoke in support of recruitment, training, and establishing criteria and a process for granting requests for funding. Discussion ensued about establishing a policy. Mr. Johnson spoke about the challenges the Committee has while planning events and having to call meetings due to the Sunshine Laws. City Attorney Durden explained the Sunshine Law does not prohibit members from social gathering at events, members just cannot discuss anything that may foreseeably come before the board to vote on. Commissioner Stinson inquired about structured changes to the Cultural Arts and Recreation Advisory Committee where they have an executive committee on that board that makes decisions and votes and another associate member that can talk about the details. City Attorney Durden suggested they appoint a one person sub-committee. Mr. de Luna suggested having one group be the actual committee making decisions and the hands on members being separate from the committee. Mr. Healy stated the ordinance encourages members to participate in the events. He explained that the members not only create the event, but also participate in the event which makes it difficult as it relates to the Sunshine Laws. iv) Pension Board Commander Vic Gualillo complimented his pension board members. He spoke about recruitment typically being by word of mouth. He explained their training is structured so that the members can attend training twice a year and covers Sunshine Law and Ethics. He believes mentoring is an interesting concept, but was not discussed as much because most members have specialized knowledge beforehand. He agreed with the Board Member Review Committee Members regarding evaluations and the Chairs having tremendous insight. He stated retention for the Pension Board has taken care of itself and is not opposed to term limits but a longer term for the Pension Boards makes more sense. He believes the Board is very happy and is open to the changes that have been discussed. 4) New Considerations a) Beautification and Natural Resource Preservation Advisory Committee (BNRPAC) i) Status Commissioner Stinson explained Ms. Leroux is here and her Committee is in the process of forming a new Committee. He inquired as to how many members they would be appointing. Ms. Leroux stated 4 they are currently evaluating procedural items, but would like the number of members to be a fixed number instead of a range. Ms. Paul encouraged a thorough review of any proposed legislation so that it is clear and there are no gray areas. There was discussion relating to the differences in the roles of the Boards/Committees and the concern of creating a new Committee with overlapping roles. City Clerk Bartle offered to email Ms. Leroux a packet that included the literature for all of the boards. b) Change in structure of standing committees? City Planner Reeves reported there have been conversations about having a Special Magistrate for Code Enforcement and asked if that was up for consideration. City Clerk Bartle explained the Commission began conversations about the topic, had a workshop on it, it was put on a Commission Agenda, and then, because of time challenges, was dropped off the agenda. Mr. de Luna stated the current structure of the board operates very well and believes it could handle just about anything. He explained the Board is made up of volunteers which means the City does not have to incur expenses. Mr. de Luna did not have information about the discussions, so he did not want to comment about the Special Magistrate. Commissioner Stinson offered to send Mr. de Luna some documentation. Mr. de Luna reiterated his comments about the board being able to handle just about anything. He explained they add their individual perspectives and believes their decisions have been good. c) Quasi-judicial training requirements and needs. City Attorney Durden explained the need for training, orientation, and education of the Committee members. She agreed that orientation is needed and liked the idea of having all the members come in at the same time. This would allow the opportunity for doing really good orientation that would cover training, ethics training, voting conflicts and Sunshine Law and believes it should probably be on an annual basis. She further stated the two boards that handle a lot of quasi-judicial matters, would need very different training. Cultural Arts and Recreation Advisory Committee, Board Member Review Committee, and Pension Board will not need the quasi-judicial training. In the case of a Pension appeal, the Board has special counsel to handle that. The City Commission will need it because they conduct quasi-judicial matters. She explained that ninety percent of Code Enforcement Board and Community Development Board’s decisions are quasi-judicial and believed the quasi-judicial training should be separate from the other training and happen sooner rather than later. 5) Miscellaneous Business (Discussion Only) a) Draft Ordinance changes necessary to affect recommendations of the Committee. i) Projected budget to draft changes. ii) Implementation timing City Attorney Durden explained, based on this meeting and what she heard, the number of changes that would be necessary to the current Ordinances and Resolutions do not seem extreme when considering changes to the number and length of term and the number of members, alternates, and meetings per year. She explained that when we start getting into comparing Beautification Committee and Community Development Board powers and duties and their scope of review, and changing what the Cultural Arts and Recreation Advisory Committee does, that gets more complicated. She inquired if there would be subsequent meetings or if this is the last meeting. She explained she is not sure if she has all the comments and suggestions to consider and did not feel comfortable moving forward yet. Mr. Healy suggested she address each committee and then have each chair review the language. 5 _____________________________ Ms. Paul stated she would like to have a written document of the changes to present to her board as a whole to review. City Attorney Durden inquired whether the Board Member Review Committee should clearly lay out a set of recommendations and vote on them before moving forward to the next step which would be the revising. Chairman Stinson believed there should be a document prepared that reflects the information gathered from the two meetings and provide it to the boards/committees in June so they can either agree with it or make changes to the proposal. The Committee discussed what the process should be going forward and the need to come up with an amount needed to fund the program so the amount can be proposed in the budget. The Committee would like to get the document in April to take to their individual boards/committees for comments, and then have the Board Member Review Committee, along with the appropriate Chairs, discuss and vote on the final recommendations. 6) Reports Commissioner Stinson reported that the Commission presented awards to three termed out members at a recent Commission meeting and he hopes to continue doing that. 7) Adjournment There being no further discussion, Commissioner Stinson declared the meeting adjourned at 8:24 p.m. John M.

I am a member of the UNF Student Affairs committee and was recently appointed by Mayor Curry to the Library Board of Trustees. In my professional life I am an economist functioning mainly as an investment consultant to 42 clients, with about $2 billion under advisement. I currently consult to many public pension and retirement plans. While I do not advertise this fact, I am also a Florida certified attorney. During my limited free time I still practice some law on a stricly pro bono basis. It may sound presumptuous, but I believe I would be a perfect fit on either or both of your Pension Boards. My experience in the world of economics, public accounting, finance and law would lend itself nicely to such service. That being said, my main goal would be to add value to the Board, with the ultimate goal of keeping the promises we have made to so many public servants who have dedicated their lives to making ours better. With regards to any conflicts of interests, I have none. Furthermore, my firm is closed to new business, so there would be no intent on my part to ever financially gain from such a position. I appreciate your consideration. 4
