§ 8888 Broadband Council Meeting Rules

Key Takeaways

  • •The first meeting of the California Broadband Council must happen by March 1, 2011, and the President of the Public Utilities Commission runs it.
  • •At the first meeting, the group picks a leader (chair) and maybe a backup leader (vice chair) for future meetings.
  • •After the first meeting, the leader decides when to meet, but they must meet at least 3 times every year.
  • •The leader’s office helps the group with paperwork and other admin tasks.

Example

Imagine a school club that has to meet at least 3 times a year. The teacher picks the first meeting date, and then the club members choose their own leader.

Just like the school club, the California Broadband Council has its first meeting set by the President of the Public Utilities Commission. Then, the members pick their own leader and must meet at least 3 times a year.
