34. Attendance of Members of All Boards and Commission
    Attendance of Board and Commission members will be reviewed on a quarterly basis by the staff member who works most directly with any Board or Commission. If attendance of any member is at a level of less than 75% for two consecutive quarters, the staff member will report that attendance to the member and to the Mayor. If attendance of any member is at a level below 60% in any four consecutive quarters (or over a span of six or more meetings for groups which meet fewer than six times annually), the Mayor will request a resignation from that member unless there were extenuating circumstances, outside the control of the member, which were reported to the staff member prior to the absences. If a Board or Commission has been unable to conduct business at more than one scheduled meeting in the previous year due to lack of a quorum, the 60% requirement will be enforced regardless of extenuating circumstances.
