NAC384.090. Committees of commission: Formation.

     1. The commission, by resolution adopted by a majority of the commissioners, may designate one or more committees, each of which must consist of two or more commissioners.

     2. The committees, to the extent provided in the resolution, have and shall exercise the authority of the commission and the management of the commission; but the designation of such committees and the delegation of authority to them does not operate to relieve the commission or any individual commissioner of any responsibility imposed upon the commission or the commissioner by law.

     3. The commission may appoint an architectural committee composed of members who have expertise and background in architecture, engineering or design, particularly as it relates to the architectural design and engineering methods used and employed in the Comstock Era between 1865 and 1880. This committee’s purpose is to advise and consult with the commission on applications for certificates of appropriateness, make recommendations to the commission, and perform such other duties and functions as the commission deems advisable. The members of this committee need not be members of the commission.

     4. Other committees not having and exercising the authority of the commission may be designated by a resolution adopted by the commission. Except as otherwise provided in the resolution, the members of such a committee need not be members of the commission. The chairman shall appoint the members of the committee. Any member of the committee may be removed by the chairman whenever in his judgment the best interests of the commission will be served by the removal.
