Re. COCB Nominations

The recommendations are proceeded by a recruitment process that included
advertising in local news papers, canvassing of qualified community members by
present Continuum of Care Board members, announcing at Community Meetings
and other activities that there are currently vacancies on the Continuum of Care
Board. From that process, we received three applications that were screened by the
Nominating Committee for meeting the minimum requirements, one of which were
interviewed by the committee and are being recommended for approval by the Board
of Supervisors
