Board of Recreation and Parks – Membership and Duties
(Bill 61-26)
This Charter Amendment changes the membership of the Board of Recreation and Parks by increasing the number of at-large members from three (3) to four (4) and provides that district-level members are appointed based on recommendations from County Council members. The amendment also amends and modernizes the Board duties to reflect both current board practices and its role to serve in an advisory capacity to the Department of Recreation and Parks.
This would amend Section 533 of the Baltimore County Charter.
A vote FOR the amendment changes the membership of the Board of Recreation and Parks and clarifies that the Board is an advisory body to the Department of Recreation and Parks.
A vote AGAINST the amendment keeps the current membership and duties of the Board of Recreation and Parks.
