If the unit of local government is a county, at least 30% of the members
serving on the commission must be representatives of the municipalities
within the county. The municipal representatives shall be selected by a
convention of mayors in the county, who shall elect from their membership
municipal representatives to serve on the Advisory Committee. The members
representing the county shall be appointed by the chief executive officer of the county.
If the unit of local government is a municipality, the non-public
representatives shall be appointed by the chief executive officer of the municipality.
If the unit of local government has a planning or zoning commission, the
unit of local government may elect to use its planning or zoning commission
to serve as the Advisory Committee, provided that not less than 40% of the
committee members include representatives of the real estate, development, and
building industries and the labor communities who are not employees or
officials of the unit of local government. A unit of local government may
appoint additional members to serve on the planning or zoning commission
as ad hoc voting members whenever the planning or zoning commission
functions as the Advisory Committee; provided that no less than 40% of the
members include representatives of the real estate, development, and
building industries and the labor communities.
