§ 79936 Agave Commission Board Structure

Key Takeaways

  • •There is a group called the California Agave Commission that has 9 main members: 6 farmers, 2 processors, and 1 regular person.
  • •The group can change how many members it has if 2/3 of them agree and the secretary says it's okay, but they have to tell everyone involved first.
  • •The secretary and other important people can be part of the group too, but they don’t count as main members.

Example

Imagine a school club that grows plants. The club has 6 kids who grow the plants, 2 kids who turn the plants into cool stuff, and 1 kid who just helps out. The teacher can also join the club meetings.

This law is like the rules for that club. The club can change how many kids are in it if most of them agree and the teacher says yes, but they have to tell everyone in the club first.
