HARRY HUGHES, Governor

537

(1975).

Subsection (c)(4) of this section also is added
as standard language. It follows from the
requirement that there be staggered terms.. An
inherent aspect of staggered terms is that they
must begin and end at set intervals. For
circumstances under which subsection (c)(4) of
this section applies, see the General Revisor's
Note to this article.

In subsection (a)(1)(ii) and (2) of this section,
the defined term "State facility" is substituted
for the references to an inpatient unit of a
"regional mental hospital" and "psychiatric
hospital center", for clarity.

In subsection (a)(l)(ii) of this section, the
former references to serving as "ex officio
member{s}" is deleted as inaccurate in light of
subsection (a)(2) of this section.

As to subsection (b) of this section, the
Commission to Revise the Annotated Code notes,
for consideration by the General Assembly, that
there are no provisions for the composition of an
intercounty advisory, committee similar to those
under subsection (a) of this section for a county
advisory committee.

Defined terms: "County" § 1-101
"Director" § 10-101 "Physician" § 1-101
"Health officer" § 1-101 "State facility" § 10-101

10-310. OFFICERS.

(A)   IN GENERAL.

FROM AMONG ITS MEMBERS, EACH COUNTY ADVISORY COMMITTEE
AND EACH INTERCOUNTY ADVISORY COMMITTEE SHALL ELECT ANNUALLY
A CHAIRMAN AND OTHER OFFICERS THAT THE COMMITTEE FINDS
NECESSARY.

(B)  CHAIRMAN.

A MEMBER MAY NOT SERVE AS CHAIRMAN FOR MORE THAN 2
CONSECUTIVE YEARS.

(C)  ELECTIONS.

THE MANNER OF ELECTION OF OFFICERS SHALL BE AS EACH
COUNTY ADVISORY COMMITTEE OR INTERCOUNTY ADVISORY COMMITTEE
DETERMINES.
