Summary

The Van Buren County Board of Commissioners adopted updated bylaws for the county parks commission, formalizing meeting procedures, officer roles and rules of order.

The Van Buren County Board of Commissioners adopted updated bylaws for the county Parks Commission during their April 22 meeting.

County staff told the board the bylaws, prepared by the Parks Commission, formalize how the commission will conduct meetings, select officers and adopt Robert's Rules of Order. The commission previously reviewed and recommended the bylaws; the county's adoption by resolution is required for the rules to take effect.

A commissioner moved to approve the bylaws "as presented" and the board approved the motion by voice vote. County staff noted that future changes to the bylaws would require a two-thirds vote of the Parks Commission to be forwarded for board consideration.
