SUBJECT
Title
Approve 2024 Board and Commission Annual Work Plans

Report
DISCUSSION
Council appointed boards and commissions have developed proposed annual work plans for calendar year 2024. These work plans are submitted annually for Council approval. Work plans identify policy issues the board/commission will be acting on during the year.

2024 work plans (Attachments 1 through 9) also list:

* Board and Commission meeting dates;
* Routine and special assignments specific to each board or commission;
* Continuing Study Issues; and
* Annual review of policies and reports.

New study issues, ranked by Council at the February 15, 2024 Study Issues and Budget Proposals Workshop, will be added to the board and commission work plans. Updated work plans are provided to the board/commission as an "Information Only" item.

The Personnel Board typically addresses appeals under specific duties instead of addressing policy issues. This Board does not operate under an Annual Work Plan.

EXISTING POLICY
Council Policy 7.2.19 Boards and Commissions, Section 2.H.(I)(a) Work Plans.

FISCAL IMPACT
There is no fiscal impact as a result of approving the Work Plans.
