appointment for the three-year terms expiring December 31, 2018. The resolution also ratifies a
Pueblo City/County Joint Youth Member for a one-year term expiring December 31, 2016.
PREVIOUS COUNCIL ACTION:
Appointments to the Human Relations Commission are made on an annual basis selecting
st
individuals to serve three-year terms expiring on December 31 of each year.
BACKGROUND:
Following an advertisement published in the Pueblo Chieftain on November 8, 2015 and an
announcement on the City Clerk’s webpage seeking volunteers to serve on this committee,
applications were received from the following individuals for the terms expiring December 31,
2015:
Ed Brown Incumbent, Resident of the City of Pueblo
Doris Kester Incumbent, Resident of the City of Pueblo
Steve Lucero New, Resident of the City of Pueblo
Pete Judiscak New, Resident of the City of Pueblo

Ryan Madic Incumbent, Youth Appointment
Incumbent Rebecca Wasil did not submit an application for reappointment.
Council member Steve Nawrocki reviewed applications, interviewed the candidates, and
recommends incumbents Ed Brown, Doris Kester for reappointment. However, Councilman
Nawrocki stated the remaining four applicant’s qualifications were so similar that he believes
Council, as an entity, should vote by ballot for the remaining position.
Mr. Nawrocki does concur with the Pueblo County Commissioners for the joint Youth
Appointment of Ryan Madic.
FINANCIAL IMPLICATIONS:
This is a volunteer committee, no compensation is given.
BOARD/COMMISSION RECOMMENDATION:
None
STAKEHOLDER PROCESS:
None
ALTERNATIVES:
Council could remove the Resolution from the Agenda, request that the recruitment process be
extended, and order the public notice for applications be republished in order to receive
additional applications for consideration.
