serve on that cannot be taken away by the other BOCC members.

serve (suggestion is to do this alphabetically - by last name)
^ The round robin process of choosing boards/commissions shall begin, with
the least senior BOCC members (alphabetically) choosing one board, and
following with other board members, from least to senior member of the
BOCC, choosing one board at a time
^ Round Robin will not include short-term taskforces (limited duration), ex-
officio boards, and non-O.C. boards with BOCC in officer positions, (these
also cannot be taken away by other BOCC members)
^ In regards to BOCC members attendance at any
board/commission/taskforce meetings:
o There shall not be any more than 2 BOCC members assigned to
any one any board/commission/taskforce
o Any third/fourth commissioner that attends any taskforce/staff work
group meetings can only attend as a silent observer
o In the event that 2 commissioners are assigned to any
board/commission/taskforce meeting and one other commissioner is
assigned as an alternate, that person (the alternate) can attend as a
silent observer and only become a voting or participating member if
one of the other assigned commissioners is not in attendance
