SPECIFIC REQUEST(S) OR RECOMMENDATION(S) & BACKGROUND AND JUSTIFICATION
RECOMMENDATION
Accept this supplemental report and determine policy on this
matter.
FINANCIAL IMPACT
Our report to the Board on December 9, 1986, indicated the annual
cost of providing $50 meeting stipends and mileage reimbursement
to members of the East County and San Ramon Valley Regional
Planning Commissions is estimated at $38, 000. If such
reimbursement were made effective January 1, 1987, the cost for
the balance of the current fiscal year would be about $19,000 . .
Review of the Community Development Department budget indicates
that such cost could be covered by projected salary savings.
BACKGROUND
On December 9, 1986 your Board received a report from the County
Administrator which provided financial and background information
on the proposed payment of meeting stipends to members of the
East County and San Ramon Valley Regional Planning Commissions.
At that time your Board requested that staff conduct further
research on the issue of remuneration to commission members.
On March 11 , 1986 your Board approved, in concept, the
establishment of an East County Regional Planning Commission as
proposed in a report prepared by the East County Regional
Planning Commission Task Force. At that time the issue of
commission member remuneration was left for further
consideration. On June 10, 1986 your Board adopted an ordinance
establishing the East County and San Ramon Valley Regional
Planning Commissions. No provision was made for commission
member remuneration.
The payment of stipends and/or expense reimbursement to members
of regional planning commissions is a matter for Board policy
determination.
