Community Development and Viability and Leisure Activities Committee members |
discussed the creation of the Green Space Advisory Board and are making the following |
recommendations: |
City Council at its regular meeting adopted resolution RES0281-2005 stating that upon |
passage of the Millage Proposal to Provide Funding to Permanently Preserve |
Green Spaces and Natural Features with the City of Rochester Hills the Rochester |
Hills City Council will establish an Open Space Advisory Board for the purpose of |
planning and developing strategies, recommending acquisitions and maintaining the |
green space funded through this millage. With the passage of the millage at the |
September 13, 2005 Primary Election, Council needs to move forward with discussions |
regarding the formulation of the Open Space Advisory Board. |
* The name of the Committee will be Green Space Advisory Board. |
* The Green Space Advisory Board "Scope of Authority" shall serve solely in an |
advisory capacity. The Board may make recommendations to the City Council but may |
not assume the legislative or administrative authority of the City Council, the Mayor or |
any City Department. |
* The Board shall consist of seven (7) voting members and four (4) ex officio members. |
* The seven (7) voting members shall be residents of the City of Rochester Hills |
and be appointed by City Council to three-year terms |
except for |
the initial appointments will elect four (4) members to serve two-year terms and |
three (3) members to serve three-year terms. This |
staggered |
approach results in subsequent appointments occurring in alternate years. |
* The four (4) Ex Officio members shall be: |
* City Assessor or his/her designee |
* Parks/Forestry Director or his/her designee |
* City Surveyor or his/her designee |
* One (1) City Council member appointed by City Council to serve a one (1) |
year term expiring December. |
* The objective of the Green Space Advisory Committee shall have the mission of |
developing strategies and bringing recommendations to |
City Council |
regarding the expenditure of millage funds to permanently preserve natural green |
spaces, wildlife habitats and scenic views; protecting |
woodlands, wetlands, rivers and streams; and |
expanding the Clinton River Greenway and other trail |
corridors. |
