Currently, the Board has six (6) regular members and no alternate members.

Currently, there is one (1) vacant regular member seat with a term set to expire in June 2027, as well as two (2) vacant alternate member seats. Staff recommends that the City Commission appoint one applicant to the vacant regular member seat, with a term expiring in June 2027, and appoint the other applicant to one of the vacant alternate member seats. There are no additional applications for this board on file. Issue: Should the Honorable Mayor and City Commission consider appointing Michael Montgomery and Bradley Jackson to the Code Enforcement Board, with one applicant being appointed to the vacant regular member seat, for a term set to expire in June 2027, and the other applicant being appointed to one of the vacant alternate member seats?
