[HISTORY: Adopted by the Board of Supervisors of Carroll
Township 1-3-2005 by Ord. No. 56. Amendments noted where applicable.]
There is hereby created a Recreation Board in and for the Township
of Carroll. The Board shall consist of five persons to be appointed
by the Board of Supervisors for terms of five years or until their
successor is appointed, except that members first appointed shall
be appointed so that terms of not more than two members expire annually.
Members shall serve without pay but may be reimbursed by the
Township for all expenses incurred in performing their duties. All
persons appointed shall serve their full terms unless voluntarily
resigned or removed by the Board of Supervisors for dereliction of
duty. Vacancies occurring other than by expiration of term shall be
for the unexpired term and shall be filled in the same manner as original
appointments.
The members of the Recreation Board shall elect a Chairman,
Secretary and Treasurer and select all other necessary officers to
serve for a period of one year. The Board may adopt rules and regulations
for conduct of all business within its jurisdiction. The Recreation
Board may appoint a five-member advisory board to participate in Recreation
Board deliberations and advise the Recreation Board on all matters.
The advisory board members shall serve without pay, and none shall
have a vote on Recreation Board matters. The advisory board members
shall serve at the pleasure of the Recreation Board and for such terms
as the Recreation Board may designate.
The Recreation Board shall supervise, regulate, equip and maintain
Township-funded recreation programs and facilities. It shall exercise
power and functions concerning parks and recreation facilities as
may be, from time to time, delegated to it by the Board of Supervisors
and may expend only such funds as may, from time to time, be authorized
by the Board of Supervisors.
The Recreation Board shall submit an annual report to the Board
of Supervisors, including an analysis of the adequacy and effectiveness
of community recreation areas, facilities and leadership.
