Debated
Recreation Manager Leslie noted that Lisa Goodrich was stepping down from the chair position due to time commitments and would work with the new chair during the transition. Hickam nominated McCawley, citing her seniority; McCawley declined and returned the suggestion to Hickam, who also declined, explaining she would be unavailable during June and July. Cruz then volunteered; McCawley moved to nominate him, Hickam seconded, and all members voted in favor. Hickam subsequently volunteered for vice chair; after discussion about summer availability, McCawley moved, Goldschmidt seconded, and the motion passed unanimously.
Decided
PASSED — Josue Cruz elected chair; Hillary Hickam elected vice chair.
