STANDING:Park and Recreation Committee Bridgette Moore Marsha Swanson
You ask, what’s the big deal? So what if its called an Ad-Hoc Committee or a Standing Committee? First off it seems no one on the city council can decide which type it is, in one place they refer to it as an Ad-Hoc committee and in making appointments of members they call it a Standing Committee. Upon questioning council members a prominent citizen of this fair city was told this committee is an Ad-Hoc committee and therefore exempt from the Notice Requirements of the Brown Act.
The big deal is the law.
Per the California State Attorney General Publication. An Advisory committee comprised of two council members for the purpose of reviewing all issues related to parks and recreation in the city on an ongoing basis: This committee is a standing committee which is subject to the Brown Act requirements because it has continuing jurisdiction over issues related to parks and recreation in the city.
