a. Request each member of the Board of Supervisors provide the County Administrative Officer with a list of requested/preferred Board committee and commission assignments for the calendar year 2021,
b. Request each member of the Board of Supervisors provide the County Administrative Officer with a list of suggested Board committees and commissions to be created or eliminated for the calendar year 2021, and

SUMMARY/DISCUSSION:
At the beginning of each calendar year, the Chair of the Board of Supervisors proposes to the full Board the appointment of Board members to a variety of standing and ad hoc committees of the Board and also to a number of external committees, commissions and other governmental entities which require representation of the County by a member of the Board of Supervisors. The presumptive Chair of the Board has requested that each Board member submit their committee/commission assignment requests to the County Administrative Officer for presentation at the January 5, 2021 Board of Supervisors meeting. The Chair of the Board will then take those requests into consideration and report back with a proposed roster of Board committee/commission assignments at the January 12, 2021 meeting of the Board. It is anticipated that the full Board will act on the appointments at that time.
In addition, each year some committees, commissions and other governmental entities should be removed from or added to the list. Usually, these are ad hoc committees; though sometimes it is brought to our attention that another entity has disbanded. Therefore, we also request Board members additions and deletions to the list.
For informational purposes, the 2020 roster of assignments to Board committees and commissions is attached to this report.
