Bicycle, Pedestrian and Trails Committee (BPTC) There are currently 6 at-large members on the BPTC. The recommendation is to reduce the number of at-large members to 4. With enforcement of the ethics training requirement, the City Council could make this change effective immediately.

The recommendation is to move to 9 members representing commercial real estate, downtown business, retail, information technology, life sciences, commercial services, professional services, and 2 at-large members. Enforcement of the ethics training requirement would necessitate recruitment of new members to meet a quorum, such that the transition to the proposed change could be implemented immediately.

Fall Recruitment Recommendation To address these changes most effectively, staff recommends the fall 2023 recruitment for commission and committee vacancies be deferred until the final restructure is implemented. In the interim period, should there be a deficiency in quorum due to membership attrition that prohibits the meeting of a commission or committee, staff recommends that a limited recruitment be conducted toward achieving alignment with the overall membership restructure for the board. Annual Workplan Recommendation To ensure that commissions and committees are working in concert with the City Council toward identified community goals, staff recommends that each commission and committee submit an annual workplan to the City Council. These annual workplans should connect to the citywide strategic plan goals and be submitted to the City Council in December of each year for the following calendar year. If approved by the City Council, this annual workplan process would be incorporated into the enacting legislation for each commission and committee. Page 11 of 12
