The Clerk of the Board will ensure that the Supervisor has a copy of all applications originally filed with the Clerk of the Board.
Type 2: At Large/Countywide Appointments: Applications are sent to the Clerk of the Board. The Clerk of the Board will distribute the applications to the appropriate interviewer. With the exception of the Planning Commission and the Treasury Oversight Committee, bodies may generally conduct their own interviews of applicants, unless provided direction by a Board Committee.
