Policy Components Standard <br />policy Custom <br />policy Notes <br />A. Committee Chairs (and/or CAC members) should submit agenda items <br />to the (designated person) at least (#) days <br />prior to a scheduled meeting. <br />B. The agenda must provide a description of each item of business to be <br />transacted or discussed so that interested members of the public will be <br />capable of understanding the nature of each agenda item. <br />C. As a general rule, only those items appearing on the agenda will be <br />discussed or voted on. However, if an item is raised by a member of the <br />public, the citizen advisory committee may accept testimony and discuss <br />the item so long as no action is taken until a subsequent meeting. <br />D. With the Chair's agreement, the designated staff will develop and <br />distribute to each member an agenda listing the matters to be considered <br />at upcoming citizen advisory committee meetings. Also, so far as <br />practicable, copies of all written reports that are to be presented to the <br />citizen advisory committee for members' review will be included in this <br />package at least ten (10) days before the meeting. <br />g. Minutes shall be taken of all citizen advisory committee meetings and <br />submitted to the County [governing board, clerk, department head] for <br />consideration and approval. <br />h. All recommendations and reports of the citizen advisory committee, <br />approved in the form of motions, shall be conveyed exclusively to the <br />BOCC for action. Approved motions are forwarded to the BOCC for <br />consideration, approval, or denial. Outcomes are reported back to the <br />citizen advisory committee. <br />15 <br />
