MAR 2 <br />non <br />a <br />BOOK 76 P GE 436 <br />Chairman Wheeler noted that there are 15 members currently <br />and wished to explain how we got to this situation. The <br />Committee started off as the Marine Advisory Board with 7 <br />members. Then the Narrows Committee was formed through the <br />Marine Resources Council by the District, and he was selected as <br />chairman. Both committees were serving a dual function, and he <br />wasn't happy with sitting through two meetings that were going <br />over pretty much the same material; so, he asked if they could be <br />combined. They also had a problem with the Minutes with the <br />Narrows Committee, which sometimes were only a tape recording. <br />Chairman Wheeler noted that the objectives between the two <br />committees were the same, except probably some of the long term <br />effects of the Marine Advisory Committee may be a little more <br />involved and it had a wider scope than the Narrows Committee. <br />That is why he asked for the two committees to be merged. <br />Commissioner Scurlock had no problem with any of the <br />individuals named, but just wondered if the committee gets to 25 <br />members whether it might not become very unwieldy. <br />Chairman Wheeler believed all the different people have <br />specific areas of expertise where they can make a definite <br />contribution and advised there has been no trouble with it so far <br />in getting things done. <br />Commissioner Scurlock agreed that if there has been no <br />problem with the way it is working, it should be left alone. <br />THE CHAIRMAN CALLED FOR THE QUESTION. <br />It was voted on and carried unanimously. <br />DISCUSSION RE STATE & FEDERAL POLICIES <br />Commissioner Bowman referred to a proposed Resolution which <br />Hoyt Howard, Chairman of the Tri -County Council of Local <br />Governments, is• asking the Commission to approve and return so it <br />can be sent to our State Delegation and Federal Representatives. <br />44 <br />
