Pending Council Requests Work Session Topics — Pursuant to Ordinance No. 19- 2026, the following items will be discussed during the September 21 City Council Work Session. Each week, the topics included on the next week's agenda will be in the Friday Report. Staff contact: Rachel Balthrop Mendoza, City Manager's Office 1) A work session to establish a Green Catalyst Fund. (a) Requestor: Council Member Davis (b) Council Member Request. "I'd like to schedule a 2-minute pitch for a work session to establish a Green Catalyst Fund, which would use $100k from the FY21-22 Sustainability Fund to attract, support, and retain firms that contribute to our sustainability goals, under the guidance of the Economic Development Strategy". (c) Staff Information: If the City Council wishes to move forward with this request, the item will be sent for review by the Sustainability Framework Advisory Committee. Developing a work session for Council following the Sustainability Framework Advisory Committee meeting is expected to take approximately 10 staff hours. (d)Date requested. September 14, 2021 (e) Format for response: Work Session 2) Passing a resolution to engage State delegation to oppose the currently proposed redistricting. (a) Requestor: Council Member Meltzer (b) Council Member Request. "The latest congressional redistricting proposal from the Texas legislature carves up Denton in such a way that the vast majority of our residents would find themselves sharing a representative with distant Amarillo, Wichita Falls, and vast stretches of the Panhandle; areas that have little in common with Denton and Denton County. It will dilute Denton's impact during elections. It will inevitably lead to our being represented by someone with little to no ties to our area and will hurt constituent services for Dentonites. And it will make it far more difficult for Denton's municipal leaders to have a meaningful connection with our representative in Washington. I ask this council to adopt a resolution asking the legislature and especially our own delegation to oppose this travesty and create a compact district that includes all of the city of Denton and neighboring communities". (c) Staff Information: The House Redistricting Committee conducted its first hearing on HB 1 on October 4, the Texas House of Representatives redistricting bill. The bill by Chairman Todd Hunter was passed through the Committee and will hit the House floor on October 12. The Senate also convened on October 4 to take up SB 4, Senate redistricting, and the bill passed off its floor. If the City Council wishes to move forward with this request,staff will prepare a resolution for passage at the next available Council meeting. Preparation and legal review of the resolution is expected to take approximately 4 staff hours. (d)Date requested. September 29, 2021 (e) Format for response: Resolution 2 3) Passing a resolution thanking Chris Watts for his service on the DCTA Board and remove him and John Ryan from their positions for cause. (a) Requestor: Council Member Armintor (b) Council Member Request. "I'm writing to propose a 2-minute pitch at the next Council meeting, October 4 or 12, for a time-sensitive work session to consider issuing an immediate statement to the DCTA Board thanking Chris Watts for his service as Council's appointee to the DCTA Board and replacing him and his Alternate, John Ryan, prior to the October 28 2021 DCTA Board meeting, rather than on November 12, when their terms were originally scheduled to expire. The cause for Mr. Ryan's termination as Alternate is the simple fact that he has not been attending either DCTA Board meetings or Denton City Council meetings where DCTA has been discussed, and is therefore unprepared to represent in the event of the primary appointee's absence. As for Mr. Watts, although Mr. Watts has worked hard in this role and is doing what he thinks best for Denton and DCTA,his action would qualify in both cases as "removal with cause," the unfortunate but stark cause being that he has unambiguously and definitively ceased to serve at the pleasure of this Council. As No Bus Cuts Denton,a committee of 17 people from 10 different labor unions, observes in their September 22 petition: "Mr. Watts ignored City council's voice at the July 22, 2021 meeting of the DCTA Board of Directors. Although Denton City Council had passed a resolution that DCTA should maintain its bus routes for 6 months, Mr. Watts argued at the July DCTA board meeting that the bus routes should be maintained for only 3 months. Moreover, at the September 21, 2021 Denton City Council work session, he stated that he thinks that it is not his role to follow the instructions of Denton City Council as its appointee to the DCTA Board of Directors." Mr. Watts correctly acknowledged at that same September 21 work session that he serves "at the pleasure of this Council." His decision not to serve at the pleasure of this Council by not following the clear direction of a Council resolution is sufficient cause for removal. There is too much at stake to allow Mr. Watts to continue in this role any longer. This Council must consider thanking him for his service and removing him from the DCTA Board promptly before he can make further decisions that would permanently impact DCTA bus drivers and riders. As unpleasant as it is for Council to remove a Council appointee from the DCTA Board before their term expires, the rules allow it, and there is recent precedent in Denton for doing so, as Mr. Watts himself did when he successfully advocated for the premature removal of his predecessor, Sara Bagheri.As unpleasant as it is to removing a Council appointee from their appointment a month before their term expires, Mr. Watts does not depend on his appointment to earn a living, but DCTA bus drivers do. It 3 is their livelihoods on the line, and the future of public transportation in Denton, in any vote or decision he might make in the critical month ahead to cut bus routes against this Council's resolution". (c) Staff Information: Nominations and resumes for the City of Denton's primary and alternate representatives to the DCTA Board of Directors are due to staff by close of business Friday, October 8. Appointments to the DCTA Board of Directors are currently scheduled for City Council consideration at the October 19 City Council meeting. The new primary and alternate board representatives will serve a two-year term effective November 13, 2021, through November 12, 2023. In accordance with state statute and the DCTA Bylaws, board members are required to have professional experience in the field of transportation, business, government, engineering, or law. Board representatives must reside within the Denton City limits and are not required to currently hold an elected office. (d)Date requested: September 29, 2021 (e) Format for response: Resolution B. DCPH Update to Commissioner's Court—On Tuesday, Oct. 5,Denton County Public Health (DCPH) presented their standing COVID update to the Denton County Commissioner's Court (begins shortly after 43 min. mark and is approx. 10 minutes in length). The following are some notes from the video for convenience only; the video should be watched for the full context, charts, and interpretation. Stats can be viewed at DentonCounty.gov/COVIDstats • Boosters/Third Shots—As of Mondayl0/4, DCPH had provided close to 2,000 third dose shots and boosters so far. They have about 13,500 appointments made through their scheduling system, so many more will be provided through the coming weeks. • Daily Hospital Capacity—continues to improve. As of Monday 10/4, 18.6% of hospitalizations in Denton County were COVID-19 inpatients; last time that it was that low was the beginning of August. • Case Demographics—Case count for age group 0-19, which has been impacted the most by Delta variant, is declining and improving. Note, the Pfizer vaccine may be approved for ages 5-11 at the end of October. Overall, the case count and trend for all age groups is declining and improving. • Testing—Positivity rate of testing is declining,under 10 per 100 testing positive. Staff contact: Sarah Kuechler, City Manager's Office C. Winter Storm Uri FEMA Reimbursement — In May 2021, the Finance Department submitted three separate projects to FEMA for partial reimbursement. In total, staff submitted $338,105 of operational and payroll expenses.

An additional $2,605 is pending final approval for reimbursement. Staff contact: Cassey Ogden, Finance D. Preserve at Pecan Creek Internet Update — In Spring 2019, residents of a section of the Preserve at Pecan Creek neighborhood gave a Citizen's Report to the City Council 4 about lack of access to high-speed internet for about 15 homes in their section of the neighborhood near Swisher Rd. Following that presentation, staff from the City Manager's Office participated in neighborhood meetings with the residents and contacted potential internet providers on their behalf. During Summer 2020, an interdepartmental team, including staff from Capital Projects, Public Works, DME, and Technology Services, worked with Denton ISD to allow a provider to utilize existing, unused portions of the school district's conduit that runs along Swisher Rd. to help the residents make a connection. At that time, the residents continued to work with CenturyLink (now Lumen) to get service to their homes in this section of the neighborhood. After much time and work, and a few minor setbacks, residents have informed staff that they are finally connected to high-speed internet. Staff would like to thank Lumen Technologies, Denton ISD, and all the staff that worked hard to get them connected. Staff contact: Stuart Birdseye, City Manager's Office E. Denton County to Clean Woodrow Area Encampment—Denton County has scheduled cleanup of trash and debris located on County property in the Woodrow area(below) beginning Monday, October 18. The cleanup is estimated to last approximately 4-5 days, and Denton County has posted signs to inform occupants of the scheduled cleanup. Giving Hope's Street Outreach staff have made no less than 14 official outreach visits to the location since January 2021 and have reported increasing concerns of health and safety hazards for occupants of the encampment and the surrounding area. DPD's Homeless Outreach Team (HOT) Officers and Giving Hope's Street Outreach staff have visited the location frequently over the last three weeks to make occupants aware of the upcoming cleanup and have reported an increased receptiveness of occupants to referrals to services and housing. Other local shelters and nonprofits have been notified of the upcoming cleanup to assist with spreading awareness and prepare for providing increased services to individuals moving on from the Woodrow area encampment. Staff contact: Courtney Cross, Community Services ON h ' moo- s � 5 F. COVID-19 Response — The Fire Department is in the process of receiving the necessary approvals, certifications, training, and equipment to ramp up our COVID- 19 testing internally and COVID vaccination administration to the Denton community. Over the past several weeks, the Fire Department has been working with Texas Department of State Health Services and the CDC to become a COVID-19 Vaccine Provider.Approval to become a vaccine provider was just received and the department is currently waiting on the arrival of additional required equipment to order, store, and ultimately administer COVID-19 vaccines in a safe and efficient manner. This week two FD personnel completed train-the-trainer in-service on the proper use of the Abbott Molecular COVID testing machines and will begin the process of putting this equipment into service soon testing City employees. This will give the City a more accurate resource for COVID testing in cases were a normal antigen COVID test is inconclusive or suspected to have a false reading. The Fire Department also assisted Denton County Public Health Department (DCPH) with two large COVID Vaccine Clinics in Little Elm this week which administered over 4,000 doses in two days. Additionally, the Denton Fire Department and Police department will be assisting DCPH this coming Monday and Tuesday with two large vaccine clinics in Denton at CH Collins Field. The capacity for this 2-day clinic is 10,000 doses over the two days (5,000 per day).

First Additional Bag Fee to be Temporarily Waived — As presented to Council with the FY 2021-22 budget, the City will administer a $5.00 fee for the collection of each additional bag of refuse that is left outside a customer's trash cart. Through December 2021,the City will waive the first application of this fee for customers. Each customer for which this fee is waived will also receive an automated courtesy call to notify the customer know that any future instances of trash bags left outside their cart will incur the $5.00 fee. This gradual easing into the application of the additional bag fee will help customers better understand this new fee before they incur a charge on their account. Beginning January 1, 2022, the additional bag fee will be applied as normal. Staff contact: Ryan Adams, Customer Service and Public Affairs J. Highland Park Road Speeding Concerns - City staff recently attended the Denia Neighborhood Virtual Community Meeting on Monday, September 27 where several residents expressed concerns with speeding along the Highland Park corridor.A speed study was conducted in this area along with the review of the Denton Police Department and the Public Works Department conducting a review of the existing signage along Highland Park Road. After completion of these assessments, it was determined that the speed limit in this area should remain 30 mph and three additional speed limit signs should be installed along Highland Park Road. The speed limit signs were installed on Highland Park Road on October 7, 2021 and the City staff will continue to work with the Denton Police Department on enforcement in this area. Staff contact: Chandra Murganandham, Capital Projects/Engineering and James Andrews, Public Works K. Vaccination Campaign Update — In late August, the City Council gave direction to create a communication campaign to encourage vaccination. To kick off the "We Care" vaccination encouragement campaign, the Public Affairs Department has launched the We Care Denton website, www.wecaredenton.com. The website will serve as an information portal and go-to platform for print and digital outreach and communications. Beginning next week, the City will initiate the `We Care to Make a Difference' outreach and engagement portion of the campaign. Maximizing digital platforms, the City will invite the community to share how the vaccine has made a difference in their lives. With permission, we plan to share different stories, videos, and photos to foster community support and expand our reach via direct mail, email, and display advertising. The City is also working with Denton County Public Health to promote their mobile vaccination program for homebound individuals and community group-based clinics. In doing so, the County will collaborate with community groups to help ensure everyone has access to COVID-19 vaccinations. Staff contact: Maria Denison, Customer Service and Public Affairs L.

Keep Denton Beautiful and the City of Denton participated in the NeighborWoods Program, planting 1,543 trees total from 2002-2015. Denton temporarily paused its participation in NeighborWoods to focus planting efforts associated with the Denton Tree Initiative (2016-2019). The Texas Trees Foundation catalyzes creating a new green legacy for North Texas through transformational, research-based plans that educate and mobilize the public to activate the social, economic, environmental, and health benefits that trees and urban forestry provide. The NeighborWoods program includes a variety of community projects and plantings in public spaces in collaboration with community members,homeowner associations, civic groups, businesses, corporations, and local city governments. The goal of the NeighborWoods program is to provide opportunities for individuals and organizations to put down roots in their communities by planting trees,which benefit the community at large in many ways. These benefits include: • Increasing the overall tree canopy, which will lower energy costs, improve air quality, absorb rainwater runoff and sequester carbon, and reduce the overall Urban Heat Island. • Enhancing the beauty of public spaces to attract people outside and be active,while also increasing property values of communities. • Providing shaded areas for recreational use and gathering spaces to create a sense of community and improve connectivity with nature — thus reducing stress and improving overall quality of life. • Bringing communities together through unified teamwork and environmental stewardship to plant and maintain trees — resulting in greener, cleaner, and healthier neighborhoods built by invested individuals and organizations. 10 Staff contact: Haywood Morgan, Parks and Recreation R.

CIP Sidewalk Installation Status Information — On September 3, Council Member Beck requested information pertaining to public facing and searchable sidewalk project information as an interim solution prior to the launch of the Capital Improvement Plan map in early calendar year 2022. Staff has published Discuss Denton page: City Sidewalk Improvement Projects I Discuss Denton This page is specific to new sidewalk infrastructure and exclusive to project delivery. The new webpage contains sidewalk segment information,including the estimated construction completion timelines for sidewalks that will be constructed in the next three calendar years. The website also includes the attached map that lists all sidewalk segments that will be constructed through the end of calendar year 2024. Staff contacts:Robin Davis, Haley Salazar and Nathan George, Capital Projects/Engineering B. Over-mowing omplaint—Recently, Parks and Recreation staff and several Council Members received an email with the subject "over-mowing at North Lakes park AGAIN."The area of concern at North Lakes Park is between the dam of the northern detention pond and Windsor Dr. This area is mowed twice a year and is maintained according to the maintenance guidelines of Natural Resources Conservation Service(MRCS)with the United States Department Agriculture (USDA). NRCS built both lakes at North Lakes Park in the 1970s to help mitigate flooding the downtown area. PARD staff mows this area after the wildflowers and prairie grass have dropped their seed and after ground-nesting 12 hatchlings have matured and left their nest. The Wildflower Trail does not get mowed and serves as a wildlife sanctuary. The mowing activity takes place each year between August and September. It also is mowed in the winter. This area is maintained by City staff. A copy of the dam operation and maintenance plan is attached. Staff contact: Drew Huffman, Parks and Recreation C. Payment Processor Information Follow-Up—At the September 28, 2021 City Council meeting, Customer Service received several questions regarding the coming transition of our current payment vendors to a new vendor, Invoice Cloud. Staff were asked whether customers with multiple active accounts would be able to register once or if all of the accounts must be re-registered individually. The vendor has responded that they are confident it will be possible to link these accounts provided we receive the appropriate information from our current vendor. The City will work our current vendor to confirm this information will be available to Invoice Cloud.As Council may recall from the presentation, the City has had past difficulty in receiving requested information from our current vendor in a timely manner. Staff were also asked for information on how Invoice Cloud will work with third-party finance management applications. These applications process payments in the same way as a bank's online bill payment service. They manage these processes independently and these services do not interface with our current payment portal and will not interface with our new payment portal. As a result, customers will not be required to take any additional action. Finally, a council member inquired on data retention expectations with the current vendor and what their policies were for retaining customer information after the contract period with the city is concluded. Customer Service has requested this information from the vendor but has not received response at this time. An additional report will follow when this information is available. Staff contact: Christa Foster, Customer Service and Public Affairs D. Dallas Drive (US 77) and Rio Grande Blvd. Concerns — On September 30, Council Member Byrd submitted a request to address a resident's safety concerns at Dallas Drive and Rio Grande Boulevard intersection. Dallas Drive (US 77) is a Texas Department of Transportation (TxDOT) roadway, and the subject intersection is located approximately 900 feet from the Calloway's driveway to the east. In April 2021,TxDOT installed cones and delineators at the intersection of Dallas Drive, the I-35E northbound offramp and the frontage road (near Calloway's) to prevent northbound frontage road motorists from crossing Dallas Drive. The intent of the cones and delineators is to improve the safety of the intersection and reduce collisions caused by vehicles traveling at fast speeds on the I-35E offramp not anticipating through traffic across Dallas Drive. TxDOT made this improvement at the request of the Denton Police Department following several accidents at the intersection. TxDOT plans to replace the Dallas Drive left lane I-35E onramp with underpass access to the I-35E southbound frontage road as part of the future I-35E widening project. City staff will evaluate the intersection for safety and contact the requestor as soon as possible to address the issues with temporary solutions. Capital Projects/Engineering staff will also notify the Denton Police Department of speeding concerns reported on Dallas Drive. Staff contact: Chandra Muruganandham, Capital Projects/Engineering 13 E. 2324 E.Windsor Concerns—On October 5,Council Member Beck submitted a request to address a resident's concerns at 2324 E Windsor Drive. Construction on Windsor Drive is part of the 2019 Street Reconstruction Project that includes street reconstruction and utility upgrades on portions of Windsor Drive, Scripture Street, Thomas Street, and Hercules Lane. The 2019 Street Reconstruction Project is scheduled to be completed by the close of quarter 4 of calendar year 2021, which includes all remaining reconstruction segments on Windsor Drive. Immediately following receipt of the resident's concerns, staff contacted the contractor for the 2019 Street Reconstruction Project to have the sewer cleanout in the sidewalk placed on the final punch list of items to be addressed prior to project closeout. Staff has contacted the resident to ensure that all of their concerns were addressed and will keep the resident updated as progress is made. Staff contact: Dustin Draper, Capital Projects/Engineering F. Roadway Impact Fee Cost Recovery — On Tuesday, October 5, Mayor Pro Tem Meltzer asked about the total current revenue for Roadway Impact Fees (RIF) and what that revenue would amount to if the recovery rate were raised to 50 percent.

The City budget process is long, and sometimes complicated, but it's important for all residents to know the value of their tax dollars. As you can see below, the average Denton homeowner pays $129.84 in property taxes each month, which helps to provide funding for critical services and infrastructure in our great city.

BACKGROUND: Throughout the COVID-19 pandemic, Parks and Recreation staff partnered with other City departments to make significant efforts to offer virtual programs to our community. In some areas, these efforts fell short due to barriers related to senior and youth access to technology. Staff offered one-on-one training and virtual small-group training to assist seniors with participating in these programs. However, the limited access to dedicated in-person training proved to be difficult. MLK Jr. Rec Center has historically coordinated with the Library to provide outreach technology programming for youth summer camp participants and anticipates continuing that partnership as COVID-19 restrictions are lifted. Additionally, MLK Jr. Rec Center has partnered with Denton ISD,Youth Tech Inc., Goodwill, and other community partners to offer a variety of education and technology programs for youth and adults. These programs began being offered in summer 2021. The Senior Center has not offered group technology training over the past few years due to lack of enrollment and the loss of instructors. Staff has occasionally assisted members with learning to use new smart devices upon request, but no formal class have been offered. In an effort to bring back individual training opportunities, staff moved one computer to an enclosed room for one-on- one training but was not able to start the program before the facility closed due to the COVID-19 pandemic. The Denton Public Library has a variety of online learning resources that include training videos and exercises to learn technology, business,job hunting, and homework topics. These resources are available 24/7 with a Denton Public Library account. All residents of the City of Denton are eligible for a free Denton Public Library card. Following the reopening of the recreation centers and the libraries post COVID closures,staff from both departments began working together to develop a plan to collaboratively provide technology and "how to" classes for the community. Progress has been slowed because of some changes in staffing and the reopening of facilities; however, programs will be offered in the Fall of 2021. DISCUSSION: Through the DPL2Go outreach program, Library and Recreation staff will collaboratively provide programming at the recreation centers in addition to what is already being provide in the libraries. 33 Date: October 8,2021 Report No. 2021-084 Beginning in October, "Tech Tuesdays" at the Denton Senior Center will include monthly classes focusing on the introduction of online tools such as creating a g-mail account,attaching documents to emails, tips and tricks for using internet search engines, tips for filling out online forms, connecting with others using zoom, recognizing internet fraud, etc. As we work through the scheduled topics, we will incorporate our favorite applications or "apps", including Engage Denton,Discuss Denton, and other apps as requested. The Senior Center also houses public access computers which will be available for one-on-one private tutoring. With the opening of the American Legion Hall Senior Center scheduled for October, staff are also planning to offer technology programs utilizing the ALH computer lab, which will include six public access computers. MLK Jr. Rec Center offered seven Youth Tech Inc. Camps this summer (Attachment 3). These classes included Movie Makers, Roblox Studio, Gaming and Coding, iGame Creators, iCoding, Animation and Game Design. Two classes were at capacity while the other five were near capacity with 47 youth registered this summer. Additional programs at MLK Jr. Rec Center are being coordinated with the library for Fall and Winter sessions. These programs are marketed via the City of Denton website, social media, the senior recreation magazine, and the Parks and Recreation PLAY Guide. By partnering with the library to bring these service to the recreation centers,we hope to encourage the community to seek additional learning and access opportunities through services offered at the libraries. In addition to in-person programs, the library offers a variety of online resources. Support Technology and Workforce Development Training: • LinkedIn Learning (formerly Lynda.com)—on demand video classes and tutorials to build technology, creative, and business skills • Brainfuse—resume help, career skill training, and citizenship test preparation • LearningExpresspractice tests, exercises, skill-building courses, and information for GED, college prep,job searching, citizenship, and more. • Small Business Reference Center—Information for the small business person including starting a company, business plans, operation management, sales and growing a business. • Reference Solutions—find sales leads, business competition, and support services and tools for your business Resources for Students • Brainfuse Homework Help—live homework help tutoring for grades 3-college 3-10 p.m. daily.

Grow with Google classes are online events available to anyone with a computer or tablet and internet access. Class schedules and topics are provided by the Grow with Google program and advertised on DPL marketing platforms. CONCLUSION: Staff will continue to monitor the demand for a variety of technology "how to" topics and implement them as able.

Date: October 8, 2021 Report No. 2021-086 INFORMAL STAFF REPORT TO MAYOR AND CITY COUNCIL SUBJECT: Nomination for Membership on the Policy Makers Council ("PMC") of the American Public Power Association("APPA"). EXECUTIVE SUMMARY: The City of Denton, through Denton Municipal Electric, is a member organization of APPA. APPA is a not-for-profit association comprised of public electric utilities that power 2,000 towns and cities nationwide and represents public power utilities before the federal government on topics such as electricity policy, technology, trends, training, and operations. BACKGROUND: The PMC is comprised of 45 members (40 regular members and five officers) who are either elected or appointed officials on the governing authorities of public power distribution utilities, including mayors, city council members, and elected or appointed board members. Four members are appointed to the PMC from each of the 10 geographic regions recognized by APPA. Texas is included in the West South Central region and this region currently has two vacancies on the PMC. The PMC meets a minimum of twice a year in Washington, D.C. (during the APPA Legislative Rally in February and at a separate PMC-only meeting in July). (Due to the COVID-19 pandemic, the PMC has met virtually the previous two years.) PMC members participate in meetings with elected representatives and congressional staff to advance APPA's legislative and regulatory agendas. PMC members are expected to attend these meetings. In addition to the meetings referenced above, PMC members are asked to participate in monthly calls to update them on legislative issues, as well as to respond to action items as they arise. The PMC is a very effective voice for public power on Capitol Hill. Calendar year 2022 is expected to be an active year on issues of importance to public power utilities. APPA will need the continued assistance of PMC members to advocate for public power's policy positions on energy, climate, environment, infrastructure, the Power Marketing Administrations/ Tennessee Valley Authority, and tax/municipal bond issues. The PMC needs dedicated, enthusiastic, and active community leaders with ties to key congressional offices to advocate on behalf of public power. The regular term on the PMC is three years. At the end of the first term, if a member wishes to continue serving on the PMC, they are eligible to serve a second term. Vacancies within a region that cannot be filled by a member from that region are represented by an "at-large"member who serves a one-year term. This allows vacancies to be filled temporarily by public power officials from regions where there are more candidates than vacancies. Such "at-large" members can then request in subsequent years to serve as regular members if there are vacancies in the regions. If there is no vacancy, an individual may request to continue serving in an"at-large" capacity. 38 Date: October 8, 2021 Report No. 2021-086 To serve on the PMC,the candidate must be a current elected or appointed official on the governing board of their utility. If a member of the PMC loses re-election, departs office, or is term-limited, they are no longer eligible to serve on the PMC. For example, if a current PMC member departs office in May 2022 and APPA is notified prior to June 1, 2022, the utility may request to have someone serve out the remainder of 2022 on a temporary basis. If a PMC member departs office and APPA is notified after June 1, 2022, the spot will convert to a vacancy and a new candidate will need to be nominated in the fall of 2022 to begin serving in 2023. The vacancies on the PMC are allocated among the regions listed below: REGION VACANCY(S) Mountain: CO,NM,UT, WY 2 East North Central: IL, IN, MI, OH, WI 0 West North Central: IA, KS, MN, MO,NE,ND, SD 1 West South Central: AR, LA, OK, TX 2 Atlantic: DE, FL, GA, MD,NC, SC, VA, WV 1 Southwest: AZ, CA,NV 2 East South Central: AL, KY, MS, TN 2 Northeast: CT, MA, ME,NH,NJ,NY, PA, RI, VT 3 Northwest: AK, ID, MT, OR, WA 0 Other: Puerto Rico, Virgin Islands, Guam, American Samoa 4 The Nomination Form (attached) must be accompanied by a professional resume/curriculum vitae.
