BACKGROUND
At its meeting April 4, the City Council advised Staff that it
wished to create a Parks Advisory Commission. Staff has
researched this matter and offers the above recommendations based
on said research. Council direction is that the Commission be
advisory regarding park design and function only, and staff
recommends the Commission be named the Community Services
Commission.

Staff recommends that Commissioners should be Tustin residents
since they will be advising Council on policy and fiscal matters
that allocate Tustin tax dollars. In addition, staff recommends
that Commissioners have overlapping two-year terms in order to
insure continuity on the five-member Commission. In order to
attract the best candidates, staff requests that Council open the
application process to all Tustin residents with interviews held
by Council.
Once the Council gives staff direction on the above items,
Community Services' staff will meet with the City Attorney's
staff to initiate the drafting of the necessary Ordinance.
