15.1.2 Notice of Vacancy <br /> The City typically advertises for vacancies on boards, commissions and <br /> committees two times a year. The City Clerk generally shall cause notice thereof <br /> to be advertised for a minimum of thirty (30) days. For unscheduled vacancies, a <br /> special vacancy notice shall be advertised as required by law. [54974]. The Mayor <br /> and any other interested Councilmembers shall interview all candidates. <br /> 15.1.3 Scheduling of Interviews <br /> Following the close of the advertised period, City staff shall distribute to the City <br /> Council the applications and shall schedule the interviews of the candidates. <br /> 15.1.4 Recommendations <br /> After the City Council has received the applications and/or after the candidates are <br /> interviewed, any Councilmember may make a recommendation to the Mayor as to <br /> an appointment. <br /> 15.1.5. Appointments <br /> The Mayor shall make all appointments to the City's advisory bodies, subject to <br /> City Council approval, except as noted in the Pleasanton Municipal Code. [40605]. <br /> If the Mayor's appointment is disapproved, the Mayor shall continue to make <br /> appointments until an appointment receives at least three affirmative votes. <br /> Appointees may be removed from their position by a majority vote of <br /> Councilmembers for reasons which include, but are not limited to: (a) poor <br /> attendance; (b) failure to timely file Statements of Economic Interest; or (c) other <br /> maintenance of membership provisions in the Municipal Code or resolution <br /> forming the advisory body. <br /> 15.1.6 Eligibility of City Employees <br /> While City employees are not precluded from serving on advisory boards, <br /> commissions, and committees, there is a potential for conflict. The City Council <br /> and any subcommittees to the City Council shall not make appointments that are <br /> potentially incompatible with City employment for any reason. For example, an <br /> appointment will be incompatible with City employment if: <br /> a. An act of the advisory board, commission, or committee may later be <br /> subject directly to the control, inspection, review, audit, or enforcement of <br /> any other City officer or employee. <br /> b. The time demands of the advisory board, commission, or committee would <br /> render performance of duties as a City employee less efficient. <br /> 25 <br />
