Each year, the H-GAC Board chair makes recommendations for committee appointments to H-GAC Committees. In accordance with H-GAC bylaws, the Chair may also create, modify, or dissolve committees with confirmation by the Board of Directors. The Board Chair shall also appoint a member of the state legislature as an ex-officio non-voting member of the Board of Directors. The term of this member will be coterminous with the term of the Chair.

Committee preference forms were distributed electronically on March 3 with a submission deadline of March 19. We have received and reviewed all committee preference requests. Modifications can also be requested when this item is considered at the Board meeting. All committee terms are for one year. 

Two ad hoc committees have been added by Chair Phillip Spenrath: 

Select Committee on Regional Broadband - committee reviews and provides recommendations to the H-GAC Board on the planning, study, and deployment of regional broadband. 

Select Committee on H-GAC Board Composition - Committee will review 2020 U.S. Census data and recommend bylaw amendments to H-GAC Board regarding General Assembly membership and annual membership dues.
