12/9/86 C ber Position on Zoning Commission
PROPOSAL PROF'OSED •Yt Councilman CITYGUTS 14
GareX Gilley
Background
Section 25-71 of the Code of the City of Fort Worth provides for the
creation of a Zoning Commission to be composed of nine qualified
electors of the City. This section also authorizes the City Council to
appoint one qualified elector as an alternate member who shall sit as a
member of the Zoning Commission in the absence of one or more of the
regular members.
Proposal
It is proposed that the City Council amend Section 25-71 to eliminate
the position of alternate member on the Zoning Commission. Section 25-71
of the City Code provides that the Council will consider for appointment
to the Commission only those persons who have demonstrated civic inter-
est and an availability to prepare for and attend meetings. Therefore,
it is my opinion that by appointing members to the Zoning Commission who
meet these qualifications, there is no need to appoint an alternate
member.
Legality
The Department of Law has researched this matter, and there are no known
legal impediments.
Fiscal Notes
None.
City Manager 's Comment
The City Manager has no objections to this proposal.
