Board appoints five members to Parks & Recreation Board; background-check process discussed
Summary
The supervisors appointed five people to the Parks & Recreation Board (Resolutions 60–64) and discussed which volunteers must provide clearances; staff said the township will retain the clearance records and that most new appointees have already submitted them or will within 30 days.
The Board of Supervisors on March 2 approved five appointments to the Parks & Recreation Board and discussed the rollout of background checks for volunteers.
Resolutions 60 through 64 appointed Bonnie Pierce, Robert Earig, Bridal (last name not specified), Stephanie Kelly and Wendy Johnson to terms ranging from one to three years. Each appointment was moved, seconded and approved by voice vote.
Members of the public asked whether all volunteers or only Parks & Recreation board members would be required to submit background checks and clearances. Staff and Cindy (speaker 5) said the resolution specifically applies to appointed boards but that volunteers directly working with children will be expected to provide clearances. Staff added most of the new appointees have already turned in clearances and those who have not will have 30 days to submit them.
A board member asked who would hold and manage the clearance paperwork; staff replied the township will be the keeper of that information and the parks and recreation board liaison will communicate requirements to volunteers. The meeting transcript does not provide formal policy language about retention periods or data-protection procedures for clearance records.
