2 <br /> Excerpt from "Appointment and Orientation Process for Boards and Commissions" - Section 5 <br /> 3. Appointments for extraterritorial members and alternate members to city boards <br /> shall be done in accordance with G.S. 160A-362 which requires a city to give representation to <br /> the residents of its extraterritorial zoning jurisdiction on its Planning Board and the Board of <br /> Adjustment. When a vacancy exists, the municipality will be requested to provide to the Board <br /> of County Commissioners a resolution with a recommendation for that vacancy. The Board of <br /> County Commissioners may solicit other applications for said vacancy if they so desire. If the <br /> Board of County Commissioners does not make the appointment within 90 days after receiving <br /> a resolution from the City Council requesting such action, the city Council may appoint outside <br /> members in accordance with the General Statutes. <br /> 4. Appointments will be made quarterly. The expiration of terms for members <br /> presently serving on boards and commissions will be adjusted to the nearest quarter ending <br /> date. <br /> AMENDMENT EFFECTIVE MARCH 15, 1994 <br /> When the appointments are presented to the County Commissioners for their <br /> consideration, a list of all those who have applied and are eligible for appointment will be <br /> included in the agenda. If someone is recommended for appointment, the abstract will give the <br /> source of the recommendation. <br /> 5. No citizen of Orange County shall serve in more than two appointed positions of <br /> Orange County Government unless exempted by the nature of the position he or she may hold <br /> in Governmental Service . This policy shall not apply to individuals who serve on boards or <br /> commissions or as appointees to any organization because of their official position or because <br /> of a statutory or regulatory requirement that a particular type professional individual serve as <br /> an appointee if no other qualified person can be found. This policy shall not apply to citizen. <br /> service on one short-term task force (making a total of three appointments) if the duration of <br /> service is less than one year. A "Task Force" is defined as a group with a specific charge and a <br /> short duration for its work. This policy shall not apply to any Orange County Commissioner <br /> who serves on any board or as an appointee to a board because he/she is a County <br /> Commissioner. <br /> 6. For boards/commissions which are not state mandated, the Board's policy is to <br /> limit the length of service to two-three year terms on the various boards and commissions on <br /> which citizens are appointed. This time period does not include required training programs. <br /> This will allow for more individuals to serve and for diversity of opinions. It will also provide for <br /> conformity in the length and number of terms for those boards and commissions that are not <br /> state mandated with set terms. This policy may be waived if the Board of Commissioners <br /> determines that the removal of an individual made ineligible by this policy would be detrimental <br /> to the functioning of that board or commission. <br /> 2 <br />
