The Cape May County Human Services Advisory Council voted June 4 to empower its Executive Committee to convene and conduct business on behalf of the full council between scheduled meetings.

Council Chair John Roy said the Executive Committee should be authorized to act if an issue arises that requires council action before the next HSAC meeting. Member Donna Groome moved the motion and member Nichol Hoff seconded; the motion carried.

The meeting packet also recorded routine procedural actions: minutes from the May 7 meeting were accepted on a motion from Rose Kuprianov, seconded by Carleena Supp; committee reports were accepted on a motion from Joe Fahy, seconded by Wayne Whelan. The council did not identify standing limits or specific delegated authorities in the June 4 motion; the vote authorized the Executive Committee generally to convene and conduct business on behalf of the council when necessary.
