This is Caldwell's folly. The seven member commission (which now has two vacancies) needs four votes to pass anything, that means four out of the remaining five. Costales' term had ended and she agreed to stay on. Caldwell did nothing to fill the post. It is rumored that names have been suggested. The other vacancy is due to a resignation, and again Caldwell sat on his hands. Nominations have to be approved by the city council, requiring three readings, at at least a two month period from nomination to approval. If two more commissioners resign the body will be impotent, as you cannot get four votes from three members. This is a total disgrace and could have been avoided if the mayor were doing his job.
