(2) In coordination with my staff, direct the Community Development Department to schedule a tour of the West Pittsburg area for the members of the Board of Supervisors. BACKGROUND INFORMATION: I have been approached by the West Pittsburg Alliance to consider the establishment of a municipal advisory council. I believe a MAC will provide the West Pittsburg community with a local community forum to facilitate discussion and the development of recommendations on public services, land use, boundary changes, and other matters impacting on the West Pittsburg community. There is tremendous change occurring in the West Pittsburg area. I believe it would be of great benefit and interest to members of the Board to participate in a tour of the area. The West Pittsburg Municipal Advisory Council should be established using the same format used to establish the Oakley Municipal Advisory Council. I recommend that the existing community organization known as the "West Pittsburg Alliance" be designated as the MAC for West Pittsburg.
