Subject: Appointment to the Human Relations and Diversity Board.
Background Summary:
On September 16,2003, Resolution No. 2003-21, was adopted creating the Human Relations and Diversity Board, requiring
no less than seven (7) members and no more than fifteen (15). The Resolution was then amended by Resolution 2004-11,
which changed the quorum requirement to 50% plus 1.
Ms. Maria Irizarry, a citizen of Winter Garden, has expressed a serious interest in becoming a member of Ocoee's Human
Relations-Diversity Board. She has already volunteered to work with the board's subcommittee for the Hispanic Heritage
event. Additionally, she would like to use her talents and skills to help the community by promoting diversity and
understanding. At the last board meeting, Chairman Wm. Maxwell expressed his desire to have Ms. Irizarry as a member of
the board.
There are currently two vacancies on the board.
Issue:
Should the Honorable Mayor and City Commissioners waive the residency requirement and appoint Ms. Irizarry to
the Human Relations and Diversity Board?
Recommendations
Staff recommends that the Honorable Mayor and City Commissioners waive the residency requirement and
appoint Ms. Irizarry to serve on the Human Relations and Diversity Board.
