This is also an opportunity <br />for the Commission to give direction to the committees. The schedule of this annual review is <br />intentionally prior to March when the Commission appoints committee members. <br />There are currently four commission -created committees: Wage & Benefits Committee <br />(W&BC), Financial Reserves & Investment Committee (FR&IC), Information Security Committee <br />(ISC), and Dispute Resolution Committee (DRC). Their committee charters are attached. <br />In February 2023, the Commission approved several updates to charters. The W&BC charter <br />received updates to staff titles. The DRC charter now places the general manager on the <br />Committee as an appointed member along with two commissioners, while the remaining two <br />seats would be filled by the director and the manager most closely related to the dispute. The <br />ISC charter now carries requested updates from the City regarding their appointment process. <br />No changes are recommended this year. <br />ATTACHMENT: <br />• ERMU Policy <br />- G.2g - <br />Commission Committees <br />• ERMU Policy <br />- G.2g1 <br />- Wage & Benefits Committee Charter <br />• ERMU Policy- <br />G.2g2 <br />- Financial Reserves & Investment Committee Charter <br />• ERMU Policy <br />- G.2g3 <br />- Information Security Committee Charter <br />• ERMU Policy <br />- G.2g4 <br />- Dispute Resolution Committee Charter <br />Page 1 of 1 <br />35 <br />
