(1) The Council shall establish and maintain such committees as it deems necessary to carry out the purposes and objectives of the Council. Committees shall be created or discontinued by the Chairperson as directed by the Council.
    (2) All committees and chairmen thereof shall be appointed by the Council Chairperson with the approval of a majority of the Council, except that when the need arises between regular meetings of the Council, the Chairperson shall fill vacancies and appoint temporary committee members or a temporary committee Chairperson. Any person so appointed by the Chairperson between regular meetings of the Council shall have full and complete authority to vote and carry out the duties of regular committee members until the next regular Council meeting or such shorter period of time as the Chairperson shall determine. The authority of the person appointed by the Chairperson between regular meetings of the Council may not extend past the next regular meeting unless confirmed by a majority of the Council. If a majority of the Council does not confirm the person appointed for future service on the committee, this shall in no way affect the validity of the actions taken by such person during the period between regular meetings of the Council.
