boards a 1/23/2015 8 35 AM person can serve on Board and committee meetings should meet on a consecutive basis,without monthly cancelations(unless needed) 2 I think City Council should meet together and discuss the applicants to make sure they agree on who should be appointed If more than one 1/13/2015 1 25 PM applicant is being considered for appointment the should be voted on individually 3 It appears that when first time applicants stand before the City Council,there are very few questions posed to the applicants A process to hold 1/5/2015 6 02 PM interviews prior to the full council meeting might permit the applicants to present their related experience and qualifications 4 Each Board or Commission needs to chose it's applicants,interview and present their appointments to City Council 1/4/2015 10 22 PM 5 1 I believe that Council may wish to have a person interview with the specific board or commission,for which they are applying,and get input from 12/31/2014 1 51 PM the board/commission members 2 After all persons have been interviewed when Council votes instead of having the process be where whoever is fast enough to jump in and nominate a person,I believe,in all fairness,that all nominations should be put-forth by Council members then have an open vote and the person receiving the most votes—wins 6 The city council members should be prepared to ask relevant questions of the applicant They should also explain to all the applicant prior to the 12/30/2014 6 01 PM interviews what are the duties and expectations of the board/commission members 7 The value of this survey escapes me 12/30/2014 5 34 PM 8 I believe the application should have more room for the applicant to share his/her experiences on how they could assist the city I respect the work 12/30/2014 3 21 PM of volunteers but I believe there needs to be a time limit(3 years)to serve on a board or commission After a break of two years a person could be reappointed I realize each council member has political supporters that he/she supports for appointments but new faces can assist the city to continue move forward and serve the citizens of Apache Junction 9 All council members should be involved in the selection In the past,I have sometimes found out a week before I was to attend a interview meeting I 12/30/2014 2.27 PM have had to rearrange other events to attend which was not a major problem for me but it has been for others A little more time would be helpful 2 weeks would be nice 10 Some people have been on some boards forever I think that there should be a time frame on how many years you can serve on a board not the 12/30/2014 12.29 PM term which is normally 3 years but say you can have back to back terms for a total of 6 years,then you have to leave the board for at least a year to allow others to be on some boards 11 The first time through the interview can be a little intimidating 12/30/2014 12 21 PM 12 Requiring that talent bank applications be updated periodically would allow applicants to review their preferences and avoid having the council 12/30/2014 12 16 PM calling on applicants that are not interested in open positions 13 Certain council members have demonstrated their inability to set aside personal feelings when making appointments(good or bad) Perhaps all 12/30/2014 11 47 AM applicants could be allowed to request that any one member of the council recuse themselves for the vote on their specific appointment because of a demonstrated and/or obvious conflict of interest 14 I might suggest this if time of City Council members is vital this might delay the process Now with all City Council members involved they are 12/30/2014 10 56 AM able to have intimidate comment and discussion of any applicant 7 / 14 Boards and

Date 1 Conflict of interest when one serves on multiple boards! 1/23/2015 8 39 AM 2 there seems to be more residents that want to serve so yes I think it should be limited to 2 at any one time 1/13/2015 1 26 PM 3 It appears of late that we have many new applicants willing to serve on boards or commissions And,who are enrolling in the CLI Thus,it would be 1/5/2015 6 14 PM my recommendation that any one individual should not be permitted to serve on more than two boards or commissions 4 Need to bring in more involvement from the Citizen and Leadership classes There is a reason why people are willing to attend these classes 1/4/2015 10 30 PM 5 Council should appoint the best person for the benefit of the city-thus,by limiting the number,you may be eliminating the best person 12/31/2014 1 54 PM 6 I believe that a limit of two boards or commissions be set that an individual can serve on at one time Also would suggest a limit be placed on how 12/31/2014 9 13 AM long an individual can serve on a particular board or commission without a break I would suggest a 3 year limit Exceptions could be made for positions requiring special qualifications,or for positions for which there are no other applicants 10 / 14 Boards and Commissions SurveyMonkey 7 Yes it should be limited to two boards/commissions at one time I also strongly feel that there should be a limit of two terms on a single board, 12/30/2014 6 10 PM whether they are consecutive or not 8 There is a limit of four now Creating and enforcing limits seem like a waste of time 12/30/2014 5.36 PM 9 I suggest that the limit should be 2 This would allow more citizens to participate 12/30/2014 3 29 PM 10 Two would be an acceptable limit 12/30/2014 2.37 PM 11 Sometimes there are not many people who want to serve on a board so you may end up with an open spot id you limit the number of boards a 12/30/2014 12 23 PM person can serve on 12 The issue is that you need community involvement(volunteers)without,your are forced to work with who you have I believe that one person 12/30/2014 11 09 AM serving on more than one Board or Commission might be perceived as a conflict It is vital that the City attempt to appoint(in the best case scenario) only those individuals that have knowledge and experience in the area they are seeking to fill 11 / 14 Boards and Commissions ) ) SurveyMonkey Q9 Please provide input on how to recognize the service given by board and commission members.
