Commission adopts members-policy amendment to formalize subcommittee membership

Members were asked to adopt an amendment to the members' policies to formalize subcommittee membership, an institutionalization of current practice so commissioners are assigned to subcommittees and terms are clarified. The proposal—described in materials as member's policy 2.10—was presented with the rationale that codifying practice reduces reliance on memory and helps ensure periodic committee activity.

A motion to adopt the policy was moved and seconded; the chair called for the voice vote and, after ayes were recorded, the chair announced the motion carried. The commission recorded adoption of member's policy 2.10 during the business session.
