Parks, River, and Open Space (PROS) Committee Chair

PROS COMMITTEE PURPOSE
The Parks, River and Open Space Committee (PROS) of the Greater Griffith Park Neighborhood Council actively engages stakeholders in the thoughtful stewardship of Griffith Park, the Los Angeles River and other parks and open spaces within and
adjacent to the Council boundaries.

As integral parts of the GGPNC community and significant resources for all of Los Angeles, we advocate support within these public areas for: Active and passive recreation; Educational and cultural experiences on many levels; Habitat for and encounters with native wildlife and plant communities.

The Committee seeks to balance these uses and interests to foster a greater appreciation and support for these vital resources.

 

PROS CHAIR DESCRIPTION
The PROS Committee Chair functions as the primary point person to monitor and report on developments relevant to the Committee’s stated purpose (see above).

It is expected that the chair will, among other things, stay abreast of the central issues, and maintain productive working relationships with, the key governmental and community players in the committee’s area of concentration; attend public meetings where legislation or projects are being discussed that may directly impact stakeholder interests; and subsequently report the known facts to the board in a fair and balanced manner.

Issues, projects and legislative items that arise are to be vetted by the full committee and brought forward in a timely manner to the GGPNC Board for consideration and action.

Chair responsibilities include: setting meeting dates and locations; creating and distributing meeting notices, agendas and minutes; producing and posting meeting minutes in a timely manner; providing periodic progress reports to the governing board; maintaining an up-to-date committee stakeholder notification list; and assuring that all business conducted by the
committee complies with the Ralph M. Brown Act, the GGPNC bylaws and official policies, including the GGPNC code of civility. The chair is also responsible for delegating areas of concentration to individual committee members who will monitor ongoing issues and projects and provide unbiased, factual reports on those issues and projects so that the committee can, in turn, provide fully informed assessments to the Governing Board.

The Executive Committee is currently accepting applications from interested stakeholders who wish to volunteer for this position. Interested applicants should submit their applications no later than September 24, 2010. There will be a special meeting of the Executive and Outreach Committees to hear from applicants at 7:30 pm at the Ranger House on Riverside Dr. on October 5, 2010.  The Executive Committee will meet at 6:00 pm on the second floor of the Citibank Building on Hillhurst Ave. on October 19, 2010, to select a new chair.
