§ 5621 Landscape Architects Committee Formation

Key Takeaways

  • •There is a special group called the Landscape Architects Technical Committee made up of 5 people who are licensed landscape architects in the state.
  • •The Governor picks 3 members, and the Senate and Assembly leaders each pick 1 member.
  • •Members serve for 4 years, but at first, some will serve for 1, 2, 3, or 4 years to start the cycle.
  • •No one can be on the committee for more than 2 terms in a row.
  • •This group will only exist until January 1, 2029.

Example

Imagine a group of 5 experts who design parks and gardens. They help make rules and decisions about how landscapes should be designed in the state.

The Governor and other leaders pick these experts to serve for a few years. They can't stay on the group forever—just up to two times in a row. This group won’t exist after 2029.
