Superintendent to be able to skip ICB meetings under Leggett legislation

On November 1, 2011 the legislation shown below will be introduced at the Montgomery County Council. 


For MCPS, this legislation means that the Superintendent won't have to show up at meetings of the Interagency Coordinating Board for Community Use of Public Facilities and can designate an alternate to attend in his/her place.


Don't need the Superintendent to show up at these meetings? Why not? What's the Superintendent's job? 


Who would be the alternate? We know one retired MCPS out-of-state consultant that MCPS uses for lots of committees! Would this be one more committee for that "pay by the hour" consultant?  


A Public Hearing on this legislation is scheduled for 11/29/11 at 1:30 pm.
