2016 Call for Committees

Membership Council Governing Committees
ICC is now accepting applications for various openings in the Governing Committees for each of six Membership Councils. Click here for an application. Each Membership Council Governing Committee acts as a liaison between its Council and the ICC Board of Directors, provides feedback and recommendations to the Board regarding various ICC services, helps build and improve relationships with stakeholders, and acts as an advocate for areas of professional or technical interest important to the Council Members. Each Council will have vacant positions open at the end of this year. The Members of each current Membership Council present at the Council’s Annual Meeting must select candidates to fill these open positions. The candidates’ names will then be presented to the ICC Board of Directors for ratification.

Special Call for New Council: In support of President Olszowy’s Safety 2.0 initiative, the ICC Board of Directors has approved the formation of a new Emerging Leaders Membership Council. This Council will serve as a forum for Members new to the code enforcement profession. Topics of concern will focus on new ways in which ICC Members can communicate and interact, particularly social media vehicles. Council Members will provide feedback regarding ways to best serve the needs of the next generation of professionals. A Call for Committees is being posted for the Emerging Leaders Membership Council; the ICC BOD will then appoint the Membership Council’s first Governing Committee.

ICC Membership Councils are discipline-specific councils that have been established to serve as a forum for information exchange to keep the membership up-to-date on the activities of the Code Council and to build and improve relationships with stakeholders with an interest in the activities of the applicable Membership Council.
