Memorandum

Date: August 12, 2013

To: The members of the Dallas City Council

From: The Honorable Michael S. Rawlings

Subject: City Council Committee Appointments

The following are my Committee assignments for 2013-2015. They were developed with three

principles in mind:

Diversityensure that each committee is constructed with ample minority and genderrepresentation. This was challenging given the composition of the current council make-

up is not perfectly balanced.

Re-alignmentintended to re-align the focus of two committees by joining Environmentto Quality of Life, and Trinity River to Transportation. Given the importance of the

transportation element within the Trinity River Project, those two were combined into

one committee.

Seniorityallow each of our senior council members a chairmanship while grooming

our next leaders. As you will see, every councilperson has a chairmanship or a vice chair

position.

Serving as the Mayor of Dallas is a fascinating and rewarding experience and I look forward to

working with you over the next two years to achieve our goals and objectives to make the City of

Dallas all that it is capable of becoming..
