001Stand for the pledge. Call the meeting order. I pledge allegiance to the flag of the United States of America to the republic for which it stands. One nation under God, indivisible, with liberty and justice for all. >> All right. At this time, I'll take a motion to go into executive session. So move. >> Second. And that's for the board seat. go in and find out our options and we'll come back out and discuss it. Anthony, can you join us, please? And Lisa and Tracy, if you want to come in, you can, but it's up to you. >> A motion to come out of executive session. >> I'll make that motion. Second. >> Second. All in favor? I uh just for the record, Amador is going to be late, I think, because he's got something tied
002up at work. [sighs] [snorts] Okay, so we have a seat on the board. We have several options that we can do. We can either leave it vacant until next May [groaning] or we can run a special election or we can appoint somebody or we can advertise it. So with the three of us, what's our plan to advertise it? >> I would prefer that we advertise and ask for uh interest from the >> Public. So if we do that, we should advertise it. Our next meeting is August 21st. So let's let's advertise it tomorrow and have the deadline of August 21st at 5:00 for all applicants. And then at that point after our regular meeting, we will go into an executive session with whatever other business we have to take care of that night. and we
003will look over the resumes and our attorney just told us that there's an application that's going to have to be filled out. So, as we get a letter of interest, you can email the application to the people with a letter of interest and have them fill it out. >> Yep. >> And that will need to be in by August 21st. And then we and then we'll proceed from there. will decide that night if we're going to wait till the September meeting to interview or we call for a special board meeting to interview so we can appoint that person at our September meeting. How's that sound? >> Good. >> Yeah. >> So, we have a plan because I know 7 years ago this happened. I was just on the board. Two people left. We had a
004special meeting. We interviewed. There was seven or eight applicants. We interviewed. We picked two and I believe we appointed them at the following board meeting. So this way we're not calling for another board meeting to appoint people. You understand what I'm saying? We'll just get August 21st. We'll call for a special board meeting to interview everybody. We can make a decision after we interview everybody who we decide and at that next board meeting we can appoint that person. All in favor? >> I. >> Scott, could you just explain why we're not holding the special election? >> Well, it's 10 It's a 1011 $12,000 for a special election. >> I know that'll be a question. >> It's a lot of money and uh >> time too. >> Time to put a lot of time maintenance workers
005put time in. >> Yep. And >> probably the process will take three months instead of two. >> Mhm. And talking with our attorney, nobody ever does that. [laughter] So all right and it's a board's it's the board's decision how they want to go >> and just to make sure that now this seat this vacancy the person that is on that gets put into the seat will then it's just for this year >> still it's still next May and then that person if decides that wants to run again they run for two years >> right >> because that seat is a three-year seat right now it's the same is how much time I have. >> Four-year seat. It's a four-ear seat. Three years. >> It's a three-year seat right now. Three years left. >> Yes. >>
006So, they'll have to run in May to fill the next two years. >> Correct. >> And then if they decide to run again, it's a four-year seat. >> Correct. >> I'm the only thing that's on my not the president. My seat's a 5year seat. >> There'll be two seats. Both expired. >> Not an expired term. Correct. But but they have to but I'm saying they're going to have to run next May and that would fill the rest of the expired term. And if they decide to run again, it would be and that's a two year that that's two years. That's two more years is what I'm >> right >> through May. >> Right. There are two seats. >> I don't know. >> Oh, okay. I didn't [clears throat] see you learned something. Okay. So, this
007person that that decides to come on a board could potentially get the longer seat. Correct. Yes. Yes. >> Okay. I didn't know that. >> Okay. >> See that? >> And just to be clear, everyone that puts in an application will have a chance to interview, right, with us, >> right? Is that how that goes, Anthony? >> Okay. All right. >> Yes. I think I think last time we had seven or eight. >> Mhm. >> Right. Something like that. >> All right. I'll take I'll take a motion to adjourn the meeting. >> Well, now we got to exec session, but we're We're going to our retreat.
