Background:
There is a vacancy on the Delray Beach Housing Authority Board due to the resignation of Mr. James Hiller. An appointment is needed for one (1) regular member to serve a term ending March 6, 2025.
In accordance with Florida Statute, Chapter 421, an appointee may not be an officer or employee of the City. The following individuals have submitted applications and would like to be recommended for an appointment:
(See Exhibit "A" attached)
A check for code violations and/or municipal liens was conducted. None were found. Voter registration verification was completed, and all are registered.
According to the Florida Statures, members are appointed by the Mayor and ratified by the Commission. However, at the City Commission meeting of June 5, 1991, a consensus was reached whereby each Commissioner would make a recommendation to the Mayor as to the Housing Authority appointees on an informal basis and according to the rotation procedure.
Based on the rotation system, the recommendation for an appointment for one (1) regular member to serve a term ending March 6, 2025, will be made by Commissioner Boylston (Seat #3).
