John Link suggested that the mayors be asked to invite the town managers to come to <br />that first HUT meeting so they can address the staffing opportunities. <br />Commissioner Gordon asked about the membership of these two task forces. <br />Commissioner Brown said that there was a recommendation on the membership of the <br />HUT group. The second task force is an open group that people signed up for after the housing <br />summit. <br />A motion was made by Commissioner Gordon, seconded by Commissioner Brown to <br />approve this item as amended with the timeline, membership, and staffing to be brought back. <br />Commissioner Jacobs said that he and Commissioner Brawn were hoping the task <br />force with the university officials {HUT) would get started before the end of the fiscal year. <br />VOTE: UNANIMOUS <br />s. Appointments <br />The Board considered appointments to the Adult Care Home Community Advisory <br />Cammittee; Chapel Hill-Orange County Visitors Bureau; Economic Development Commission; <br />Human Services Advisory Commission; Personnel Advisory Board; and, Little River Park Advisory <br />Committee. <br />Commissioner Gordon questioned the agreement for a BOCC representative to <br />participate in the Little River Park Advisory Committee. She thinks it is a good idea to have a <br />BOCC representative, but she is not sure what action needs to be taken. <br />It was answered that no action needed to be taken tonight, but a draft could be <br />developed to circulate among the partners to gain some structure. It was agreed that a draft for <br />the Little River Park Advisory Cammittee would be developed and brought back to the Board. <br />Commissioner Brown would like to make sure that the appointments are covering the <br />areas that should be covered. She thinks that an issue that is not addressed in appointments is <br />the appointment of other elected officials who are representing organizations and not their <br />governing boards. She would like to review this as part of the policy far appointments. <br />Discussion ensued about appointing elected officials to boards. <br />Commissioner Jacobs suggested that, if the Board wants to change the policy about <br />appointing elected officials to boards, that it would be changed at the end of a term. <br />A motion was made by Commissioner Brawn, seconded by Commissioner Halkiotis to <br />approve the appointments for the Adult Care Home Community Advisory Committee; Economic <br />Development Commission; Human Services Advisory Commission; and Personnel Advisory Board <br />as stated below. The appointments for the Chapel Hill-Orange County Visitors Bureau and Little <br />River Park Advisory Committee will be considered at a later time. <br />VOTE: Ayes, 4; No, 1 <br />It was decided that the Board would decide on the policy for appointing elected officials <br />to boards before making the appointment to the Chapel Hill-Orange County Visitors Bureau. <br />Adult Care Home Community Advisory Cammittee <br />Ruth J. Monnig was appointed for the term ending June 30, 2002. <br />Economic Development Commission <br />Jim Gibson, Joal Hall-Broun, Russell Seibert, Mark Marcoplos, and Esther Tate were <br />appointed for the term ending June 30, 2003. <br />Human Services Advisory Commission <br />Robin Barnhill was appointed for the term ending March 31, 2003. <br />Personnel Advisory Board <br />Patrick Marshall was appointed for the term ending June 30, 2002. <br />9.
