CABARRUS COUNTY <br />BOARD OF COMMISSIONERS <br />REGULAR MEETING <br />MAY 16 2011 <br />6:30 P.M. <br />AGENDA CATEGORY: <br />Appointments to Boards and Committees <br />SUBJECT: <br />Appointment - Food Policy Council (FPC) <br />BRIEF SUMMARY: <br />The Executive Committee of the Food Policy Council received staff <br />recommendations for the replacement of three Council membership <br />positions. The Executive Committee interviewed candidates and <br />respectfully makes the following recommendations: <br />• Kate Brun, Microgreen Grower, to replace Brent Barbee as a full <br />member. <br />• Mary Blakeney, retired Guidance Council with Concord P &Z <br />Commission experience to replace David Rhodes as a full member. <br />• Wade Holland, Project Manager and member of the Piedmont <br />Farmers Market Board of Directors to replace Shannon Johnson as <br />an alternate member. <br />Mary Blakeney serves as an alternate on the Cabarrus County Planning & <br />Zoning Commission. An exception to the "multiple service" provision of <br />the Appointment Policy is needed for Ms. Blakeney. <br />The "Agency Represented" designation describing initial appointments to <br />the Cabarrus Food Policy Council has been reorganized to represent <br />components of the food system instead of specific occupations. The goal <br />is to ensure a broad representation on the Council while allowing the <br />flexibility necessary for the Council to make productive membership <br />recommendations to the Board of Commissioners when new members are <br />needed. The following breakdown describes the suggested categories of <br />representation: <br />H -2 Page 241 <br />
