The Board of Directors delegates to the Executive Director the function of designing and implementing the guidelines, required actions, and detailed arrangements under which the Council will operate. These administrative guidelines shall not be inconsistent with the policies adopted by the Board.

The Board itself will formulate and adopt administrative guidelines and rules only when required by law, and when the Executive Director recommends Board adoption.

The Executive Director may also issue such administrative and employee handbooks as s/he may consider necessary for the effective administration of the Council and distribute them to employees and customers of the Council.

As long as the provisions of these administrative guidelines and handbooks are not inconsistent with Board policies, or with Federal/State law, they will be considered to be an extension of the policy manual and binding upon all employees.

A copy of the Council's administrative guidelines manual and a copy of each handbook shall be made a part of the Board's reference materials maintained in the Council office.

The Executive Director shall maintain a current organizational chart to which immediate reference can be made by the Board or any employee of the Board.
