Committee moves to allow local DSS board members to serve three consecutive terms
Summary
House Bill 727, which would let local Department of Social Services board members serve three consecutive terms instead of two to ease recruitment, was reported out of committee after brief sponsor remarks.
The Senate committee reported House Bill 727, a measure that would allow local Department of Social Services board members to serve three consecutive terms — up from the current limit of two — to address difficulty finding volunteers in some localities.
Sponsor Delegate Davis said his district has trouble recruiting board members and that extending term limits would help maintain continuity. There was minimal debate and no public opposition recorded during the short presentation; the committee moved to report the bill.
The measure advances from committee for further consideration.
