SUMMARY
The KHCGTF was formed in November 2006 by the City Council to help address issues impacting community appearance. Its mission is to preserve the environment and enhance the visual appearance of the City through joint efforts of individuals, volunteer groups, businesses, and municipal resources. Unfortunately, the TF’s ongoing vacancies have made it difficult to conduct business due to the lack of quorum at monthly meetings. The KHCGTF and staff recommend a reduction in membership from 30 members to 20 members to improve the operational abilities of this body. Additionally, it’s recommended that a waitlist be created for the TF to consider drawing from as vacancies occur during the year.
