Included in those governance policies is Governance <br />Policy G.2g - Commission Committees, which is attached for reference. This policy notes in <br />statement 5 that "The Commission will review the committee charter and performance of any <br />standing committee at least annually to determine if changes are required or if the committee <br />is still required." <br />DISCUSSION: <br />The annual review of the committee charters is an opportunity for the Commission to review <br />the purpose for the committees and whether they are still needed. 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 />Financial Reserves & Investment Committee, Information Security Committee, and Dispute <br />Resolution Committee. These four committee charters are attached for review and discussion. <br />No changes are recommended at this time. <br />ATTACHMENT: <br />• ERMU Policy - G.2g - Commission Committees <br />• ERMU Policy - G.2g1 - Wage & Benefits Committee Charter <br />• ERMU Policy - G.2g2 - Financial Reserves & Investment Committee Charter <br />• ERMU Policy - G.2g3 - Information Security Committee Charter <br />• ERMU Policy - G.2g4 - Dispute Resolution Committee Charter <br />Page 1 of 1 <br />51 <br />
