ITEM NUMBER 6-1 AT A REGULAR MEETING OF THE BOARD OF SUPERVISORS OF ROANOKE COUNTY, VIRGINIA HELD AT THE ROANOKE COUNTY ADMINISTRATION CENTER MEETING DATE: September 10, 1996 AQZ" ITEM: Request to Approve Amendments to the Length of Service Awards Program bylaws for the Volunteer Fire, Rescue and Auxiliary Police Personnel concerning Board of Trustees Term Limits. The Board asked for term limits for the Board of Trustee members for the Length of Service Awards Program. The proposed amendments to their bylaws accomplishes this concern and allows for continuity by staggering the term expirations. Recommend Approval. in 1988, a Length of Service Awards Program (LOSAP) for the Volunteer Fire, Rescue and Auxiliary Police personnel was approved of by the Board of Supervisors. This program provides retirement benefits to volunteers meeting the criteria based on yearly requirements of service. A board of trustees, consisting of seven volunteers and County personnel along with liaison representatives, was established for the program to oversee its administration. The bylaws created during the formation of the Board of Trustees did not address the term limits for board members. When created in 1989, the bylaws of the LOSAP Board of Trustees state only that a member of the LOSAP board must serve a minimum term of two years. No maximum term limit was established it has been requested that term limits be set and this proposed revision to the bylaws would go into effect beginning January 1, 1997. The revisions would allow for the LOSAP Board of Trustee members to serve a four-year term with no more than two consecutive terms. Due to the nature of their position, the Risk Manager, Chairman of the Volunteer Fire Chiefs Board, and Chairman of the Volunteer Rescue Chiefs Board are to be exempt from the above stated term limits and their term indefinite through the duration of their position. A rotating election format will be established to appoint the remaining four members initially for terms of from one to four years. This will allow for balanced overlapping of the terms for future years. Subsequent appointments will be made for a term of four years, except for appointments to fill vacancies which will be for the unexpired term. If, after expiration of a term, a position on the board is unable to be filled by a new member, the said existing board member will continue to serve until the new member is appointed and ratified by the Board of Supervisors. All nominees for the Board of Trustees must be ratified by the Board of Supervisors. The LOSAP Board of Trustees members will be responsible for electing the Chairperson and Vice Chairperson of the board. , Staff recommends making the necessary amendments to the bylaws of the LOSAP Board of Trustees.
