This Policy Advisory Committee also invites executives from the private sector to meet with us several times a year to discuss ways in which we can better interface with each other, learn from each other., and share resources with each other. A few weeks ago, the Policy Advisory Committee met with Jack Carhart, President of the Contra Costa Council and Chancellor of the Contra Costa Community College District. Dr. Carhart strongly urged the County to join the Contra Costa Council in order to establish a stronger link between County government and the private sector. At the last meeting of the Policy Advisory Committee, the members present unanimously urged that we obtain Board approval for the County to join the Contra Costa Council. The Board adopted a policy statement in 1985 to guide decisions to join nonprofit associations, such as the Contra Costa Council. A copy of those guidelines is attached.
