The Board may from time to time as it deems necessary create committees to facilitate the efficient operation of the Board.
A committee that includes one or more Board members is subject to the Open Meetings Act when it meets to discuss public business or policy.
A committee that includes less than a quorum of Board members is not subject to the Open Meetings Act if it serves a purely advisory function, with no power to supervise or control public business. However, should the committee actually function as something more than a merely advisory board with the result that it in fact supervises or controls public business or policy, it must comply with the Open Meetings Act to avoid depriving the public of access to the Board’s actual decision-making process.
