Board of Commissioners Rules of Procedures Discussion

 

Abstract

Introduction & Background: At the Tuesday, January 16, 2024 meeting, Commissioner David Delaney shared that he participated in a UNC School of Government course on Board Rules of Procedures. Delaney suggested having a standing committee of the Board of Commissioners to review the Board Rules of Procedures from time to time. The consensus of the Board of Commissioners was for Commissioner Delaney to meet with the County Attorney and County Clerk to discuss the Board Rules of Procedures and bring the information to the next meeting, then the Board of Commissioners can review the items and decide.

                     

Discussion & Analysis: On January 25, 2024, Commissioner Delaney met with County Manager Dan LaMontagne, County Attorney Bob Hagemann, and County Clerk Jenifer Johnson.

 

Those present identified areas of updates to the Board Rules of Procedures.

 

Recommendation/Motion: Staff seeks guidance from the Board of Commissioners on how to proceed.
