[Adopted effective 6-2002 (§ D.7 of the Town Code)]
Except where otherwise provided by statute for any board, commission, committee or other similar body of the Town of Marlborough for which the election or appointment of alternates has been authorized, the following procedures shall apply to the designation of such alternates to act.
If any regular member of any board, commission, committee or other similar body of the Town of Marlborough is absent or disqualified from acting, the chairman of such board, commission, committee or other similar body shall, subject to the provisions of C.G.S. § 9-167a, designate an alternate from the panel of alternates, choosing alternates in rotation so that they shall act as nearly equal a number of times as possible. If any alternate is not available in accordance with such rotation, such fact shall be recorded in the minutes of the meeting and the next alternate shall be designated.
An alternate designated to act in place of a regular member who has been disqualified shall continue to act in such capacity in the hearing and determination of the particular matter or matters in which the disqualification arose.
Any alternate designated to act in place of a regular member who is absent shall act in such capacity only so long as the regular member remains absent from the proceedings.
