Presenter(s):
Chair Mary Corso
Background and Analysis:
The PBIA Bylaws indicate officers shall consist of a Chair and Vice Chair. Terms are one year, and officers may be re-elected to serve again.
2018 officers shall be elected tonight, by majority vote of the advisory board. While the bylaws state the election will be by secret ballot, per the Open Public Meetings Act voting needs to be cast in the open (i.e., by raising hands.)
The Chair’s duties include:
• Supervise and presides over meetings
• Sets meeting agendas with help from staff
• Call special meetings as necessary
• Establish subcommittees and appoint subcommittee chairs as needed
• Appoints committee members in cases when a seat is vacated mid term
• Perform other duties usually inherent to such office
The Vice Chair shall serve as Chair in case of absence.
