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.
