Notification of Ann Arbor Summer Festival City-affiliated Board of Trustees Nominations
Memorandum
The Ann Arbor City Clerk’s Office received notification of nominations to the Ann Arbor Summer Festival Board of Trustees on January 26, 2021 for review by the City Council.
The two candidates are:
• Eric Helber
• Taryn Willis
The Ann Arbor Summer Festival is an independent, non-profit dedicated to presenting a world-class celebration of arts and entertainment that enriches the cultural, economic, and social vitality of the region.
The Ann Arbor Summer Festival Board of Trustees nominates candidates to the Board on behalf of the City and University and seeks approval from the City and University of their respective nominations.
The City Council may approve the nomination of City candidates by resolution, or the City shall notify the Festival within 90 days of receipt of the names of candidates nominated if it objects to the nomination of a candidate to the Board of Trustees.
If an objection is made, the Board of Trustees shall nominate a new candidate and follow the preceding procedures until a candidate is accepted without objection.
The Board of Trustees consist of the Trustees having the power to vote, who shall not exceed thirty-four in number. At all times, to the fullest extent possible, the number of Trustees on the Board whose nominations are subject to approval by the City shall equal the number of Trustees whose nominations are subject to approval by the University.
