Discussion and possible action to approve the recommendations from the Council Boards and Commissions Subcommittee and adopt RES. 2023-51 appointing Alliyz Whetstine and Ana Shrivastava as the 2023-2024 Council Youth Liaisons for terms to expire June 30, 2024.

Pursuant to Council Policy 1-14 (Council Advisory Board Council Liaison Program), the Boards and Commissions Subcommittee makes recommendations for Council Youth Liaison appointments based on term expirations and vacancies.

On June 18, 2013, the Council adopted Ordinance 2013-12 which provides for appointment of Youth Ex-Officio members to Council. These positions are generally referred to as Council Youth Liaisons. Council also adopted Council Policy 1-14 (Youth Advisory Board Council Liaison Program) which outlines the purpose, eligibility, selection, and guiding principles of the program. This policy charges the Council Boards and Commissions Subcommittee with making appointment recommendations to Council for these positions.

On April 11, 2023, the Council Boards and Commissions Subcommittee interviewed and made appointment recommendations for the Council Youth Liaison positions.

This is a request for City Council to appoint Alliyz Whetstine and Ana Shrivastava as the 2023-24 Council Youth Liaisons.
