2 <br /> (NOTE: As of July 1, 2017, a new bill was passed in the North Carolina Legislature <br /> regarding the training period for pending members of the "Adult Care Home Community <br /> Advisory Committee and Nursing Home Community Advisory Committee". The bill is <br /> HB248 (see attachment) which reverses the appointment of the applicant to a one year <br /> training term. Applicants will be selected from our county "Applicant Interest List" for a <br /> more condensed training and if the applicant successfully completes the training, they <br /> would be recommended for appointment. Therefore, when an applicant is recommended <br /> for appointment, it would initially be for a one year preliminary term and their training will <br /> have already been completed.) <br /> FINANCIAL IMPACT: There is no financial impact associated with appointment discussion. <br /> SOCIAL JUSTICE IMPACT: The following Orange County Social Justice Goal is applicable to <br /> this item: <br /> • GOAL: ENABLE FULL CIVIC PARTICIPATION <br /> Ensure that Orange County residents are able to engage government through voting and <br /> volunteering by eliminating disparities in participation and barriers to participation. <br /> ENVIRONMENTAL IMPACT: There is no Orange County Environmental Responsibility Goal <br /> impact associated with this item. <br /> RECOMMENDATION(S): The Manager recommends that the Board discuss appointments to <br /> the Nursing Home Community Advisory Committee. <br />
