PROPOSED RESOLUTIONS
Consider adopting an Attendance Policy for Board Members.

boards and commissions, committees and task forces of the City. The ordinance provides that
members of the various boards, commissions, committees, and task forces are allowed the following

absences during a 12-month period:

1 4
<1 3
>1 5
Absences in excess of the number stated above may result in removal from the board, commission,
committee or task force of the City by the City Manager upon confirmation of the Mayor. This

scheduled meetings.
The proposed resolution adopts the same policy for FCPEMSD Board members.
