Atpo and csomp representatives can be elected to secretary positions with the representation of the various organizations staying with the person/position; therefore allowing the open seats to be at-large positions and open to any representative/commissioner 5.

“The commission has a standard policy prohibiting certain credentials from participating in projects for conflict of interest. All volunteers must annually sign and disclose conflicts of interest on a form. At meetings, all presenters must declare and disclose any conflict of interest at the start of the session. The policy requires that volunteers regularly disclose potential conflicts at the opening of meetings. All board and committee volunteers are covered under this policy. The executive committee determines if a conflict of interest exists. Individuals with a conflict of interest may not participate in the committee.”
