Williams Chairwoman, New Hanover County Commission 320 Chestnut Street Room 502 Wilmington, North Carolina 28401 Dear Mrs. Williams: As a result of our study of appointed boards and commissions, the City Council has adopted the attached ordinance and resolution which affect the jointly appointed Board of Examiners of Electricians and New Hanover County Council on the Status of Women. I am trans- mitting these to you for your consideration. These actions will not become effective until adopted by the'County Commissioners, and are presently in the format necessary for Council action. The ordinance amends Section 8-46 of the City Code to provide for staggered terms for the members of the Board of Examiners of Electricians. In reviewing the boards and commissions, we concluded that staggered terms benefit most boards when any technical information or expertise is needed. Such is the case with the Board of Examiners. The resolution adds a paragraph to the April 25, 1978 resolution establishing the New Hanover County Council on the Status of Women ? which specifies the duties and responsibilities. The Council on the Status of Women has also requested that their title be changed to read IINew Hanover Council on the Status of ~'Jomenll, but we have taken no action on that request as we felt that such a change is up to the Commissioners. ....--.~ . -~--~ ~ In addition to these aocuments, we have also recommended that ; formal resolutions establishing the Port, Waterway and Beach Commission and the Wilmington-New Hanover Insurance Advisory Committee be adopted. Staff is in the process of developing such resolutions. Drafts will be submitted for your review prior to any action being taken. Input by the affected boards will also be solicited. _/ ---~ -.---.-------- --,._--_..._".~--~.._--- '.--/ ~C!- .~" 7- -:1.'f-iV CITY COUNCIL . " Mrs. Ellen C.

At present, the Wilmington-New Hanover Planning Commission is designated as the Lead Planning Agency (LPA) for transportation programs and, as such, is the designated recipient of transportation planning funds. In order to insure continuity in the transportation planning program, City Council has requested the Governor to designate the City of Wilmington as LPA. According to our discussions with state officials, the designation process will be facilitated .if the County Commissioners endorse this re uest. Therefore, it is respectfully requested tha e Board of Commissioners ?pprove the attached resolutio~ to that effect. It should be noted that LPA designation relates primarily to the receipt of grant funds and will not change the operation of the Technical Coordinating Committee or the Transportation Advisory Committee of which you are a member.
