PURPOSE:

The overall purpose of the proposed rule development is to clarify and simplify rule language. The majority of the anticipated changes will address concerns expressed by the Joint Administrative Procedures Committee that the use of the word “may” could be construed as a granting of unbridled discretion to the Governing Board or the Executive Director. The effect of the proposed amendments will be to clarify, simplify, and reduce rule language.
