Gila County Building Safety Advisory and Appeals Board Reappointments

Background Information

Section 4 of the Gila County Building Code Ordinance addresses the Building Safety Advisory and Appeals Board to include its authority and purpose; members and qualifications; vacancies; duties of the board; hearings and meetings; quorum and voting; appeals; and limitation of authority.

On March 4, 2008, the Board of Supervisors approved the appointments of initial members to the Gila County Building Safety Advisory and Appeals Board. Mike Hanich, representing Supervisorial District 2, and Peter Oddonetto, representing Supervisorial District 3, were amongst the initial appointed members.

Evaluation

Section 4(B) (2) states,"Memers of the Advisory and Appeals Board must be residents of Gila County but cannot be employees of Gila County government. This Board shall include members from the following categories to the extent that persons meeting the qualifications are available and willing to serve:
1. An architect duly licensed in the state of Arizona.
2. A professional engineer duly licensed in the state of Arizona.
3. A general contractor duly licensed in the state of Arizona.
4. A person representing the public.
5. A person engaged in the electrical, mechanical and plumbing trade.

Mike Hanich is an architectural draftsman and Peter Oddonetto is a contractor. Both add valuable knowledge and experience to the Gila County Building Safety Advisory and Appeals Board and meet the criteria as a member.

Conclusion

Mr. Hanich resides in Tonto Basin (District Two) and Mr. Oddonetto resides in Globe (District Three); both have served on the Gila County Building Safety Advisory and Appeals Board since March 4, 2008. Both members are reliable and add knowledge and experience to the Board.

Recommendation

The Gila County Community Development Division Deputy Director recommends that the Board of Supervisors approve of the reappointment of Mike Hanich and Pete Oddonetto to the Gila County Building Safety Advisory and Appeals Board for an additional four-year term beginning January 1, 2012, to December 31, 2015.

Suggested Motion

Approval to reappoint the following members to the Gila County Building Safety Advisory and Appeals Board for an additional 4-year term: Mike Hanich from January 1, 2012, to December 31, 2015; and Peter Oddonetto from January 1, 2012, to December 31, 2015.
