She said Leon Meyers has submitted an application, <br /> 7 since the Board's last discussion of appointments to the Board of Equalization and Review. <br /> 8 Chair Price said, if appointed, Leon Meyers would be serving on two boards. <br /> 9 Laura Jensen said yes, as he is currently on the Board of Adjustment. <br /> 10 Commissioner McKee asked if there could be clarification about avoiding having <br /> 11 members on two boards. <br /> 12 Chair Price said, as she understands it, one can serve on two boards and one task <br /> 13 force. <br /> 14 Commissioner Dorosin said there is not a policy, but it is an informal practice to avoid <br /> 15 assigning people to multiple boards. He said he supports not having members serving on <br /> 16 multiple boards, in order to diversify the boards, unless there is a specific liaison from one board <br /> 17 to another. <br /> 18 Commissioner Fowler asked for clarification of the applicants. <br /> 19 Laura Jensen reviewed the applicants for the board: Leon Meyers, Andrew Landstrom <br /> 20 (alternate only), Reginald Morgan (reappointment), and Karen Morisette. <br /> 21 Commissioner Hamilton asked if Karen Morisette was discussed at the last meeting. <br /> 22 Laura Jensen said there was a similar discussion, but no conclusion, and thus the item <br /> 23 is back before the BOCC at tonight's meeting. <br /> 24 <br /> 25 A motion was made by Commissioner Dorosin, seconded by Commissioner Bedford to <br /> 26 appoint Hunter Beattie for a member position and as Chair; Barbara Levine as a member; Karen <br /> 27 Morisette as a member; Reginald Morgan as an alternate; and Andrew Landstrom as an <br /> 28 alternate. <br /> 29 <br /> 30 Commissioner Dorosin asked if Andrew Landstrom serves on the Orange Parks and <br /> 31 Recreation Council. <br /> 32 Laura Jensen said no, the listing is incorrect, and he serves on the Hillsborough Parks <br /> 33 and Recreation Council. <br /> 34 <br /> 35 Roll call ensued. <br /> 36 <br /> 37 VOTE: UNANMIOUS <br /> 38 <br /> 39 b.
