PREVIOUS COUNCIL ACTION: City Council has made appointments to the Retail and Medical Marijuana Licensing Authority selecting individuals to serve terms which expire during a calendar year. Amended City Charter Section 4-4 (i) now requires that such appointments be made by the Mayor, subject to confirmation by City Council. BACKGROUND: Due to the term expiration of Incumbent Carla Flores, there is one appointment available to serve a four-year term expiring July 1, 2024 on the Retail and Medical Marijuana Licensing Authority. Following an advertisement published in the Pueblo Chieftain and an announcement on the City Clerk’s webpage seeking volunteers to serve on this board, no new applications were received. Incumbent Carla Flores does wish to be considered for reappointment. The applications were reviewed by Mayor Gradisar who has recommended that Carla Flores be reappointed. FINANCIAL IMPLICATIONS: This is a volunteer committee and members serve without compensation. BOARD/COMMISSION RECOMMENDATION: None. STAKEHOLDER PROCESS: None. ALTERNATIVES: Remove from the agenda and re-advertise for additional applications. RECOMMENDATION: Approval of the Resolution. ATTACHMENTS: Proposed Resolution
