AGENDA SECTION: ORIGINATING DEPARTMENT: APPROVED FOR NO • 8 Arts & Humanities AGENDA: ITEM N0. 1 BY: AfQ .tb,s Rhea BY: Ordinance 94-9643 Background: At its July 21 meeting, the Salina Arts and Humanities Commission unanimously approved a recommendation to the City Commission to increase its membership from ten (10) to twelve (12) members. As a result of the 1990 Wolf Report and subsequent Arts and Humanities' retreats, Arts and Humanities Commissioners discussed increasing membership because of the ever-growing committee work and financial/ fundraising responsibilities with the Foundation. The first step involved working out a "partnership process" with the City Commission in making appointments, which has happened. Therefore, it is an ideal time to recommend expansion of the Arts and Humanities Commission membership, with appointments of new board members coming in August. Recommendation City Commission increase membership on the Salina Arts and Humanities Commission to twelve (12) members. Involved is an amendment to Section 2-162 (membership; appointment; term) of Ordinance Number 91-9442 to read: The said commission shall consists of twelve (12) members, which shall be appointed by the Mayor, etc. ---- Approve Ordinance Number 94-9643.
