Latest version.

  • (a)

    Each school building committee formed pursuant to this article shall be composed of nine (9) members as follows:

    (1)

    One (1) member shall be a councilman as appointed by the mayor; one (1) member shall be a board of education commissioner as appointed by the board of education chairman; one (1) member shall be a finance board commissioner as appointed by the board of finance chairman. These three (3) members shall serve through the completion of the project; provided, however, that if any such member's term of office as councilman, and/or board of education commissioner, and/or board of finance commissioner expires prior to the completion of the project and such member is not reelected or reappointed to his same office, such member's term on such school building committee shall be considered vacant and a successor appointed to fill the vacancy as prescribed for the original appointment.

    (2)

    The three (3) members described in paragraph (1) of this subsection shall comprise a nominating committee and will nominate and present to the city council the following members: Two (2) citizen taxpayers from the school area to be served; and one (1) citizen taxpayer from the school district community as a whole, i.e., outside the school area to be served; one (1) representative from the professional educational staff of the Bristol School District; and two (2) members from the professional and/or commercial and/or industrial community of the city. These six (6) nominations shall be presented to the city council by the nominating committee.

    (b)

    In addition to the nine (9) aforementioned voting members, an advisory panel which may be called on from time to time shall include the city engineer, city comptroller, city corporation counsel, fire chief, police chief, city clerk, city construction supervisor, and any other city employees as deemed necessary by the school building committee.

    (c)

    A school building committee shall be appointed for the express purpose of one particular project. Each school building committee shall be designated by project name. Nothing in this provision shall prevent a person from serving on two (2) separate committees at the same time.

    (d)

    A duly authorized school building committee will continue as a complete committee regardless of changes in the city council, the board of education, or the board of finance during the course of the project, except where such individual city board representative is not reelected or reappointed to the city board he represents, in which case replacement will be made according to provisions of this article pertaining to vacancies.

    (e)

    Each school building committee created pursuant to this article shall cease and desist once the assigned project has been turned over to the board of education.
