DATE: November 7, 1983 @ County
SUBJECT: Designating One Seat on the County Planninq Commission
for a Representative from the Advisory Housing Commission
SPECIFIC REQUEST(S) OR RECOMMENDATION(S) & BACKGROUND AND JUSTIFICATION
RECOMMENDATION:
1 . Endorse legislation which will clarify that members of housing authorities can
serve on county planning commissions.
2. Remove this item as a Committee referral .
BACKGROUND:
The Board asked our Committee to consider the possibility of designating one seat
on the County Planning Commission for a representative from the Advisory Housing
Commission.
County Counsel has advised us that even though the Advisory Housing Commission is
advisory in nature, the argument could be made that serving on that Commission and
the County Planning Commission could be interpreted as incompatible offices since
planning commissions can review plans made by the housing authority. County Counsel ,
therefore, recommends that we seek legislation which would amend Health and Safety
Code Section 34326 to specifically authorize housing commissioners to serve on
county planning commissions.
We endorse such legislation which would then give the Board of Supervisors the
opportunity to decide whether or not we wish to do so.
