COMPLETED BOARD ORDER��Uo MONTEREY COUNTY BOARD OF SUPERVISORS
MEETING: May 9, 2006 Consent AGENDA NO:
SUBJECT: Proclaim state of local emergency relating to the spread of HIV among injection
drug users in Monterey County.
DEPARTMENT: Health Community Health Division
RECOMMENDATIONS:
It is recommended that the Board of Supervisors proclaim the continuance of the existence of a
local emergency relating to the spread of HIV among injection drug users in Monterey County.
SUMMARY/DISCUSSION:
This proclamation of a local emergency relating to the AIDS epidemic recognizes the high rate
of HIV infection among injection drug users, and the corresponding high rate of transmission of
the disease through the shared use of syringes. The County Board of Supervisors declared a state
of local emergency on December 6, 1994, and the rate of AIDS among injection drug users in
Monterey County has not declined. The need for the local emergency continues.
The number of reported AIDS cases indicating the route of transmission being injection drug use
remains high, continuing to meet the criteria established for the proclamation of a local
emergency. Government Code Section 8630 requires the Board of Supervisors, when meeting
weekly, to review the need for continuing a local state of emergency at least every 14 to 21 days.
OTHER AGENCY INVOLVEMENT:
County Counsel has concurred with the legal format of proclaiming the need for proclaiming the
continuance of the state of local emergency.
FINANCING:
There is no County cost associated with this proclamation of a local emergency.
