because a citizen review board is supposed to be representative of the citizenry, not a group of people appointed by the person/thing they are reviewing. Many jurisidictions have rules around the composition, so not just "anybody" can BE on the board, but typically anybody can TRY to be on the board. Example: the legislation could state "a member from the city/town council, and n members of the public" or something similar, intended to promote broad oversight. This is the opposite of that.
