SUMMARY AS PASSED: (all summaries)

Virginia Advisory Commission on Intergovernmental Relations. Abolishes the Virginia Advisory Commission on Intergovernmental Relations. The Commission was created in 1978 to act as a forum for identifying and discussing areas of mutual concern to local and state officials, including state and federal programs. The Commission no longer has professional staff or appropriations directly assigned or direct appropriations. The duties and responsibilities of the Commission can be assumed by existing entities or specific issue-oriented bodies created as needed. Other avenues for intergovernmental discussions currently exist, including the Virginia Municipal League, the Virginia Association of Counties, and the use of legislative and executive liaisons by local governments. This bill is identical to SB10, which was recommended by the Joint Subcommittee to Study the Operations, Practices, Duties, and Funding of the Commonwealth's Agencies, Boards, Commissions, Councils, and Other Governmental Entities pursuant to HJR 159 (2002). This bill incorporates HB 252.
