Regulations
The Peninsula Community Planning Board operates under
the authority of the Ralph M. Brown Act
which requires that meetings of the planning board are
open and accessible to the public. In addition, Council
Policy 600-24 "Standard Operating Procedures
and Responsibilities of Recognized Community Planning
Groups" and the PCPB bylaws govern the
operations of the planning board. Several provisions of
the bylaws constitute Brown Act requirements as outlined
in the Policy. Amendments to Council Policy 600-24 will
apply to the Peninsula Community Planning Board, even if
individual boards’ bylaws are not required to be amended
with parallel language.
In addition, the Administrative Guidelines
provide explanations of the Policy's minimum standard
operating procedures and responsibilities of this
planning board. The latest version of Robert's
Rules of Order is used when the Policy, the
Administrative Guidelines, and the bylaws do not address
an area of concern or interest.
