CORC

 

The Charter and Ordinance Review Committee (CORC) Mission Statement and Charter

     
Mission Statement:
The mission of the Charter and Ordinance Review Committee (CORC) is to maintain and keep current the viability of the Town's Charter and Ordinances in concert with the Town Manager's Office and make appropriate recommendations to the Town Council.
       
Scope of Work:
CORC will review ordinances on a routine basis to edit outdated and redundant entries.  In coordination with Town Council, CORC will upgrade the Town Code to meet any anticipated changes in law, evolving technologies and new regulatory issues.  Any recommendations for significant change will be forwarded to Town Council for their review prior to developing legislation.
       
Membership of the Committee:
CORC is a standing committee established by the Town Council.  CORC shall be comprised of not less than five (5) or more than nine (9) individuals, duly eligible to vote in Town elections.  The Chairperson shall be a Town Council member appointed by the Mayor and confirmed by the Town Council.  Members are appointed by the Chairperson and confirmed by the Council.  Each member serves a term of one (1) year, with no limitations on the number of successive terms. 
       
Procedures:
CORC will discuss any new item that a community or committee member brings forward.

A member of CORC will volunteer to write a "white paper" detailing the proposal and present it to the committee at the next scheduled meeting.

If the committee agrees with the "white paper", the Chairman will present the proposal to the Town Council at its meeting scheduled for the following month.

At its next meeting (thirty (30) days later), the Town Council should vote on whether or not the committee should proceed with the proposal.
       

Note:  The above noted procedures will not be followed for         
simple housekeeping amendments to the Town Code.
