Structure
Three planning board members from each municipality are appointed by their respective Councils to comprise the AIPC Board of Directors. Two of the appointees serve on the board and one serves as an alternate. Liaisons are also appointed from Naval Station Newport and from the University of Rhode Island Coastal Resources Center/RI Sea Grant Program. The planners from each community participate in all meetings and act as advisors to the AIPC. The Commission is staffed by an Executive Director and a Land Use Planner, and contracts with consultants for special projects.
