Report

RECOMMENDATION:

It is recommended that the Board of Supervisors:

Introduce, waive reading, and set January 7, 2020 as the date to adopt an ordinance amending Chapter 2.59 of the Monterey County Code to clarify that at large members of the Monterey County Children and Families Commission may serve until a successor is appointed and that, in the case of at large members appointed to fill a vacancy, they may serve the remainder of an unexpired term in addition to two additional consecutive three-year terms.

 

SUMMARY/DISCUSSION:

Existing County regulations permit at large members to serve up to two consecutive three-year terms. This ordinance amends the regulations to clarify that at large members may continue to serve until a successor is appointed. In the case of an at large member appointed to fill a vacancy, they may serve the remainder of an unexpired term, in addition to two additional consecutive three-year terms.

 

OTHER AGENCY INVOLVEMENT:

There is no involvement of any other agency.

 

FINANCING:

The proposed amendment to Chapter 2.59 will not incur additional expenses.
