12 <br /> Meeting Frequency <br /> The Sub-Committee suggests a meeting frequency similar to the Intergovernmental Parks Work <br /> Group of three times per year. This will provide a meaningful interval for updates while not <br /> consuming a considerable amount of staff time. <br /> Appointment Process <br /> Appointments should be made through each entity's respective appointment process. The Board <br /> of County Commissioners will appoint its own member. The Town of Carrboro will appoint its <br /> own member, etc. The Clerk to the Board of Commissioners will coordinate this process with the <br /> Town Clerks. <br /> Nature of the Work Group <br /> As an intergovernmental entity, the Climate Council should not be considered to be an advisory <br /> board of any of its constituent entities. <br /> Staffing Arrangements <br /> County staff will work with the appointed County representatives to prepare agendas and <br /> coordinate meetings. Each entity represented on the Council will be responsible for providing <br /> individual agency updates and engaging in collaborative activities. <br /> Importance of a County Climate Action Plan <br /> The Sub-Committee also recognized the need for the County to create its own Climate Action <br /> Plan to identify the County's goals and strategies. This Plan is a prerequisite to successful <br /> information sharing and collaboration with other jurisdictions. <br /> 9 <br />
