What: The Council on Aging has four vacant seats and has struggled to reach a six-member quorum, cancelling or cutting short meetings.
Where it stands: On September 8, 2026 two city councilors said applications exist and they would press the mayor; the appointments committee would then forward names to the council. District-based seating was floated and opposed by board members. See also City Government Reorganization.
