Bill > HB477

This bill amends Alabama law to increase the number of members on the Alabama Workforce Board from a maximum of 40 to 45, and also increases the maximum number of members for each regional workforce board from 20 to 25. It establishes that four voting members are needed for a quorum of the Alabama Workforce Board's Executive Committee, which is responsible for reviewing budget requests and making recommendations for workforce development funds, and allows members of this Executive Committee to participate in meetings through electronic means, such as video or telephone conferencing, which will count as in-person attendance for voting and quorum purposes. The bill also clarifies that the Executive Committee will have seven voting members, including the Governor or their designee, the Board Chair, and five executive-level business leaders appointed by the Governor, with the Secretary of Workforce serving in a non-voting capacity.
