(A) The Town Council may organize itself into standing or ad hoc committees of the Council (each a COUNCIL MEMBER COMMITTEE) to facilitate Council review and action regarding certain matters referred to them by the Town Council.
(B) All work undertaken by a Council Member Committee must originate with the Council and all actions of a Council Member Committee shall be reported to the Council.
(C) Standing, special, or ad hoc Council Member Committees may be created or dissolved by a majority vote of the Council.
(D) Other members of the Council not assigned to a Council Member Committee may attend meetings of a Council Member Committee, as an observer; however, they shall be seated with the audience and may not participate in any manner or address the Council Member Committee.
(E) If an absence is anticipated on a Council Member Committee and that absence may impede the work of the Council Member Committee, the Council Member Committee chair or other member may request that the Council designate another member of the Council to attend for the absent member and serve as an alternate member of the Council Member Committee. The term for service by the alternate member will be the term designated in the appointment, or for one meeting, if no term is specified.
