RECOMMENDATION:
It is recommended that the Board of Supervisors direct the Clerk of the Board's Office to post a vacancy to represent the public on the Countywide Oversight Board, in compliance with the requirements of the Maddy Act (Government Code ?54970 et seq.).

Two members will be appointed by the Board of Supervisors, one representing the County and the other position representing the public. Each appointing entity may appoint an alternate member with the same voting rights as the primary member, but an alternate is not required.
