There shall be established a Veterans Memorial Skating Rink
Commission.
The Commission membership shall consist of the Human Services
Director, a member of the City Council, and three at-large members.
All members of said Commission will be appointed by the Mayor; however,
the Human Services Director shall hold office by virtue of his/her
position. The Human Services Director and City Council representatives
shall hold office only for the period that they are incumbents of
their respective positions. The terms of the Commission members shall
be for three years, and all Commission members shall serve without
salary or any compensation or remuneration. The Human Services Director
shall serve as Chairperson, who shall preside at its meetings and
otherwise act on behalf of the Commission when so authorized. If the
Human Services Director declines to serve as Chairperson, then the
Commission shall annually elect a Chairperson.
Said Commission shall have the responsibility to review the
needs of a certain facility known as the "Veterans Memorial Skating
Rink" and to make recommendations to the Mayor and City Council for
improvements. The Commission shall take no action which would violate
or otherwise conflict with the terms of the lease of the facility
from the Commonwealth of Massachusetts.
The Commission shall provide to the Mayor and City Council,
on an annual basis, a report of work activities for the preceding
year and recommendations for the upcoming year.
