Boards & Commissions
Which Boards would you like to apply for?
Senior Center Commission Board Member Information: Submitted
Preference on first choice (If multiple boards are being applied for.)
Interests & Experiences
Experience and/or activities which you feel qualify you for this position:
Member of the Senior Center for 16 years. I've been a member of parks and rec. commission with Terry
Trueblood leading and Johnson County Seats commission with Tom Brase. My experience is in ADA
matters
What is your present knowledge of each advisory board you are interested in?
I don't want to move. I think that's a stupid idea I think there should be a dedicated bus stop. There are a
lot of people who no longer drive. Finally Seats eligibility should expand to include the category of over 80
frail elderly. Even if they appear to be healthy, at that age bones are fragile and balance is poor.
Potential Conflicts of Interest
Please contact the City Attorney at 356-5030 to discuss questions or concerns regarding a
potential conflict of interest. The following describe some but not all potential conflicts.
The Housing and Community Development Commission makes recommendations to the City
Council regarding the distribution of federal CBDG/HOME funds. The general rule is that no
persons who exercise or have exercised any functions or responsibilities with respect to federally
funded activities, or who are in a position to participate in the decision-making process or gain
inside information with regard to such activities, may obtain a financial interest or benefit from a
federally–assisted activity, or have a financial interest in any contract, subcontract, or agreement
with respect to a federally-assisted activity, or with respect to the proceeds of the federally-assisted
activity, either for themselves or those with whom they have business or immediate family ties,
during their tenure or for one year thereafter.
Section 362.5 of the Code of Iowa generally prohibits, with certain important exceptions, a member
of a City Board or Commission from having an interest in a City contract.
Nancy Ostrognai
Res. #15-300 states that each application for reappointment to a City Board or Commission will be
considered without regard to incumbency. If reappointed, an individual would be limited to one
reappointment to a full term in order to increase the opportunities for new applicants to serve.
Council policy is not to permit an individual to serve on two Boards or Commissions at the
same time. You will be asked to resign from one if appointed to another.
Do you currently have a conflict of interest?
Yes No
Do you currently serve on another Iowa City board or commission?
Yes No
