Swan stated Charlie Dorminy has reviewed and made some suggestions.\u00a0 He suggested that each committee review each section that pertains to them.<\/p>\n<p>Section 4.2 Commissioners Code of Conduct:\u00a0 Charlie presented the previous Policy: Role, Conduct, Responsibilities of the JWSC adopted on Oct. 31, 2007.<\/p>\n<p>Charlie noted that legislation changes can be handled by HBS legislation lawyer Brad Carver in Atlanta.\u00a0 Items like the JWSC name change and amount to make a quorum can be addressed and that he will shepherd these and similar issues in Atlanta.\u00a0 S. Swan noted that JWSC does not have eminent domain.\u00a0 Commissioner Cason asked that the legislation issues be added to the next agenda for review and discussion.<\/p>\n<p>Charlie discussed the process of voting and whether the chairman should vote.\u00a0 As it is now JWSC has all Commissioners voting.\u00a0 In other cities when there is a tie the chairman only votes to break it or he\/she will retract their vote.\u00a0 Commissioner Booker stated that is the privilege of the elected to cast a vote and shouldn\u2019t be denied and may want to keep as is and those present agreed.\u00a0 S. Swan stated this is the workshop for the bylaws to be amended and corrected.\u00a0 This committees\u2019 decision will be brought before the Commission.<\/p>\n<p>Charlie asked for descriptions of each committee and their responsibilities.\u00a0 Commissioner Cason asked the committee to be sure that all committees are needed.\u00a0 Commissioner Boland stated there are three commissioners on each committee and a good policy would be to have a proxy to replace if one cannot make a meeting.\u00a0 This way all votes can be covered and a type of cross training can occur.\u00a0 S. Swan suggested an item to go on next agenda would be ask what the Commission wants to do when a vote is not approved.<\/p>\n<p>John Donaghy discussed Appointments on page 8\/9 and should auditor and legal counsel be involved as they answer directly to the Commission.\u00a0 John also suggested 3.1 (c) needs to be performance audit and (d) should be added as \u201cfinancial audit\u201d.\u00a0 Assets were discussed further and the need for someone internally and externally perform audits yearly.\u00a0 S. Swan noted that audits on assets and inventory are now being done.\u00a0 Each division is held accountable.<\/p>\n<p>Charlie discussed Duties of Officers.\u00a0 John discussed 2.2 (b) General Powers to consider re-wording or remove County and City water.\u00a0 This can also be addressed by the legislative committee. John suggested section 2.2 (f) be revised and asked that May 1 date be amended as JWSC budget does not affect the county budget dates.\u00a0 JWSC fiscal year is July 1 to June 30.<\/p>\n<ol start=\"2015\">\n<li>Swan stated a time line will be addressed when the other Commissioners have time to comment on the By-Law Draft.
