Committee Structure
The two standing committees meet (usually the third Wednesday of the month) to discuss the respective areas they represent. At these committee meetings staff make recommendations to County Councillors, who in turn make recommendations to County Council. Council then meets monthly (usually the first Wednesday of each month) to consider their recommendations.
