The Phillips 66 Project review panel will be made up of seven (7) voting members in the following three categories:

 

Category A:                     Three individuals who live or work in the unincorporated community of Crockett;

 

Category B:                        Three individuals who live or work in the unincorporated community of Rodeo,

 

Category C:                        One individual who is knowledgeable of the needs of the entire area surrounding the Phillips 66 Project.

 

Three members of the Review Panel shall serve an initial two (2) year term and four members will serve four (4) year terms. Of the persons serving an initial two-year term, one shall be from Category A, one from Category B, and one from Category C. All subsequent terms shall be four (4) years. All persons on the Review Panel will be subject to a two-term limit.

 

 The review panel will also have one staff representative from the Department of Conservation and Development and one representative from the District V Supervisor’s Office, both as non-voting members.

 

 

CONSEQUENCE OF NEGATIVE ACTION:

 

The suggested appointees will not be able to serve on the Phillips 66 Community Benefits Review Panel, which could impact the body’s ability to achieve quorum and conduct business.
