AN ACT TO AUTHORIZE THE BEAUFORT COUNTY TRANSPORTATION COMMITTEE TO EXPEND ONE THOUSAND FIVE HUNDRED DOLLARS FOR ADMINISTRATIVE EXPENSES, TO PROVIDE A LIMIT ON THE NUMBER OF TERMS A MEMBER MAY BE APPOINTED, AND TO PROVIDE THAT THE LEGISLATIVE DELEGATION MAY REPLACE A MEMBER WHO RESIGNS OR DOES NOT ATTEND A CERTAIN NUMBER OF MEETINGS IN A FISCAL YEAR.

Authorize expenditure

SECTION 1. Notwithstanding any other provision of law, the Beaufort County Transportation Committee is authorized to expend an amount not to exceed one thousand five hundred dollars for reasonable administrative expenses directly related to the activities of the committee. The funds expended must be approved by and used in furtherance of a countywide transportation plan adopted by the Beaufort County Transportation Committee.

Term of office, limit on terms, replacement of member

SECTION 2. (A) Notwithstanding any other provision of law, the term of office of a member of the Beaufort County Transportation Committee begins at noon on July first of the year in which he is appointed for a period of four years and ends at noon on July first. No person may be appointed for more than two consecutive terms. At the discretion of the county legislative delegation, a number of these members equal to one more than half of their number may be reappointed to one more term, but these members are ineligible for reappointment.

(B) If a committee member resigns or fails to attend at least two-thirds of the regular committee meetings in any fiscal year beginning July first, the county legislative delegation may appoint a replacement to complete that member's term of office. This replacement is eligible for appointment to one more term of four years.
