Long-Range
Planning Board
The Long Range Planning (LRP)
Board is responsible for making recommendations to the
town council on a wide range of planning issues. The LRP
board’s responsibility extends from considering town
government issues, to overall planning of community
development. The LRP Board holds town meeting to develop
consensus among town residents on major changes to
municipal services and town development. The LRP board
researches and makes recommendations to both the Town
Council and town voters for disbursal of capital reserve
fund monies.
The Long Range Planning (LRP)
Board monitors trends in population, crime, demand for
various services, and vital statistics in other
communities when it could affect Pleasant Garden. The LRP
board is responsible for periodic contact with other
governments and organizations to share information,
consider common goals, and monitor conditions that may
impact the town.
The Long Range Planning (LRP)
Board conducts surveys of town residents and makes
periodic reports to residents and the Town Council on
trends and issues that may, eventually, affect the town
or enhance the quality of life for its residents.
Term
Appointments to boards, committees and task forces
are for no more than one year. All appointments end at
the Town Council’s annual organizational meeting in
December. This does not prevent an appointee from
serving consecutive terms.
Vacancies
The Town Council fills all vacant terms of board and committee members. The
board chairperson may declare a board or committee seat vacant if a member moves
out of the town, fails to attend three regularly scheduled consecutive meetings,
or violates North Carolina and/or Town of Pleasant Garden ethics laws. Each
board may recommend replacements and/or additions to its committees as
necessary. Failure to attend three regularly scheduled consecutive meetings will
not result in a council, board or committee seat being declared vacant if the
member provides a written medical excuse from a medical doctor.
