Legislative Intent.
This Legislature hereby finds and determines that Local Law
No. 11-2011 established the Food Policy Council of Suffolk County.
This Legislature also finds and determines that expanding the
membership of the Food Policy Council will ensure a wider range of
ideas on improving food systems throughout the County.
This Legislature further finds and determines that Suffolk County
would be better served if the members of the Food Policy Council are
appointed for a fixed term.
Therefore, the purpose of this law is to expand the membership
of the Food Policy Council and clarify the terms of its members.
