City of Austin Council Message Board

Colleagues—

I’ve attached an updated list of council committee and regional appointments based on the message board discussions. We still have a few committees and open appointment spots to discuss in anticipation of the January 28th work session. Here is a quick summary of openings, and a link to the full list.

Council Committee Openings:
- Housing and Planning

Regional Appointment Openings:
- Capital Area Council of Governments (CAPCOG)
- City of Austin Employee Retirement System Board of Trustees (COAERS)
- Clean Air Force of Central Texas Board
- Community Advancement Network (CAN)

Here is the list of groups that likely no longer need appointments due to their inactive status or completed work.

Inactive Regional Groups:
- Colorado River Floodplain Coalition
- Regional Affordability Committee
- Psych Services Stakeholders
- Criminal Justice Coordinating Council

We are very close to getting this done before Tuesday. If you are interested in any of the open spots, please reply to this thread.

Thanks again for all your work. Looking forward to our first work session of the year.

On Behalf of Mayor Watson

Thanks to the Mayor's team for keeping us organized on committees and appointments.

I'd like to be added to the Housing and Planning Committee. I'll withdraw from consideration for Texas Municipal League.

Thanks for this update.

Thank you for the updated list, Mayor!

I can stay on Housing & Planning.

Thanks,
Paige Ellis

If interest in the Austin/AISD/County Joint Committee still exceeds available seats, I can step back. Whenever possible, I’d like to be included in invitations for meetings and briefings, as well as other info shared with appointees, so I can remain in the loop until space becomes available for me to join.

Thank you!
KL
