Standing committees are often referred to as the glue that holds a board of directors together.
Standing Committees of a board bear the brunt of the workload. The standing committee holds the most significant influence over the big-picture direction of an organization’s interests, programs, projects, and overall mission. It’s common practice for the standing committee to be written in the organization’s bylaws.
To achieve regional success in meeting the requirements of local government reform, Kings Regional Service Commission has established several significant standing committees as noted below.
