SUMMARY STATEMENT:
With the resignation of Council Member Scott, the Council will need to appoint someone to the City Council
for a term to expire on January 11, 2018. Applicants must be a qualified elector, at least 18 years of age, a
U.S. citizen, and their primary residence must be within the city limits for at least 30 days prior to submitting
their application.
The Council had a vacancy in July of which a press release was submitted to the paper to run the vacancy
request for two weeks. The vacancy was also posted on the City’s website and Facebook page. As a result
four applications were received. The Council interviewed the four possible candidates for the Council
position to finish out the current year. Those candidates were Cami Hedges, Colby Nielsen, Michael Everett,
and Melanie Holmes. The Council appointed Colby Nielsen to fill that vacancy.
McCall City Code 1.8.8 states that as a whole, the Council may consider the matter of appointment to fill
the vacancy and make their recommendation to the mayor for appointment. The Council may choose to
either consider one of the other three applicants to fill this current vacancy or they may choose to advertise
again for applicants to fill the vacancy. The resumes of Cami Hedges, Michael Everett, and Melanie Holmes
are attached.
RECOMMENDED ACTION:
Appoint _______________ as a Council Member to a term to expire January 11, 2018
Or
Direct staff to re-advertise for applicants
