| Appointing Authority: |
Members will be recommended to the Executive Committee and will be
appointed by the Nominating Committee and appointed by the WIB Chair in
consultation with the CLEO to fulfill the required categories of the WIA.
(Note: According to current by-laws, the County
Executive appoints. In practice, it seems to happen as described above
since Nancy Giordano, the “Assistant CLEO” is on the Youth Council.)
The Chair of the Youth Council will be recommended by the Nominating
committee and shall be elected by the members of the Board at the annual
meeting. At least 25% of the members of the Youth Council shall be
members of the Dutchess County Children’s Services Council. (Note:
Current by-laws state that YC Chair shall also serve on the CSC. This is
probably not practical from a time standpoint.) |
