The planning commission shall have the functions, powers and duties which are prescribed
by state law. In order that commission members are more fully able to understand and
execute the functions, powers and duties prescribed, all commission members shall
be required to begin the Virginia Certified Planning Commission Training Program administered
by the Citizens Planning Education Association of Virginia, or such other comparable
certification program as may be available, and to successfully complete such program
within twelve (12) months of their appointment. Failure, without just cause, of any
member to comply with this requirement shall constitute malfeasance in office and
may be grounds for removal from the commission.
