Dear Utility Coordinating Advisory Committee Member:
At the next scheduled meeting I will be asking you for a recommendation to
approve the attached bylaws for the committee. The County Attorney's office
has suggested that the committee adopt up-to-date bylaws. The bylaws were
formulated using resolutions that were approved by the County several years
ago. The Board of County Commissioners will consider the bylaws after the
committee has made a recommendation.
Please review the bylaws and be prepared to consider it on your next
scheduled meeting. If you have any comments or questions about the bylaws
prior to the next meeting, please call me.
Sincerely,
� �' �a^`u' _eitCi*
Chuck Cunliffe, Director
Department of Planning Services
