C. 15091 943-9185 December 20, 1976 TO: Commissioner Wes Brown, Benton County Commissioner Jim Rogers, Franklin County Mayor Jan Tidrick, Pasco Mayor Lane Bray, Richland -Mayor Jack Hageman, Kennewick FROM: George W. Kloeppel, Executive Director SUBJECT: Board of Appeals -- Joint Appointment Article As a follow-up of my memorandum of December 6th, I am transmitting a copy of a proposed new Joint Appointment Article for the Bi -county Board of Appeals. (This is a review copy only; the original should ultimately be signed by all participants.) It is my understanding from Jim McCurry, current Chairman of the Inspector's Committee, that all seven members of the Appeals Board have indicated a willingness to continue such service. In effect, this new document, when executed by the five participating jurisdictions, would reappoint Mr. Holmes and Mr Sathe>:', whose terms ex- pired in 1975, and would similarly reappoint Mr. Uhlman and McCue, whose terms will expire'at the end of this month. The remaining Board members, Messrs. Alford, Giles, and Hirst, are simply to be reaffirmed in their present terms of Office by this document. You may note that, contrary to my earlier memorandum, the terms specified in the proposed Appointment Article span a period of five years rather than three. This, I now under- stand, was the intent of some if not all of the participating jurisdictions in 1974. Individual jurisdictions may find it desirable or appropriate to adopt separate appointment resolutions by commissions and councils. If this is your situation, I would suggest that action be taken as soon as possible, inasmuch as the pro- posed effective date of the attached Article is January 1, 1977. Wi ile I urder- stand'that it would not be inconsistant from a legal standpoint for you to sign the original of this document after that date, it would be desirable to have the instrument fully executed no later than the first or second week in January. I hope that this approach proves satisfactory. If you have any questions please contact me. GWK:das Attachment F G GOWN;,"�iNIENTALNFERE14CE C906 JADWIN RICHLAND. WASHINGTON 99352 • TELEPHONE A. C.
