Executive Committee

The executive committee establishes the general guidelines and direction for executing the mission of the Commission. It does this by developing and reviewing Commission policies, acting on urgent business that cannot await a full Commission meeting, setting Commission meeting agendas, directing and coordinating the work of the various Commission committees, and recruiting, retaining, and evaluating the performance of the Executive Director. The executive committee is comprised of the Commission Chair, each committee chair, and one at-large member.
