FINANCIAL IMPACT No immediate financial impact. REASONS FOR RECOMMENDATION/BACKGROUND The Board of Supervisors, on July 29 , 1986, authorized the Water Task Force and directed the Community Development Department to solicit nominations of persons to serve on the Water Task Force. Accordingly, the Community Development Department sought the nominations which were approved by the Board of Supervisors on October 27 , 1986 upon the recommendation of the Internal Operations Committee. The first meeting of the Task Force took place on November 24, 1986 at which time John Nejedly was selected as Chair, and Arliss Unger was se- lected as Vice-Chair. The Water Task Force was not included in the Com- munity Development Department' s budget as submitted and reviewed by the Board during its fiscal year deliberations. Because the activities of the Task Force are just beginning, there is no firm way to estimate the amount of staff effort that will be necessary to function the Task Force. The $25 , 000 estimate as submitted by the Community Development Department is to provide approximately one-half of a professional employee, with full clerical and overhead support. The funding of activities of the Task Force appear to fall within one of the following general areas: Continued on attachment: _X_yes Signature: --� Recommend of County Administrator Recommend - Bo Committee Approve Other: Signature( s) Action of Board on: /f�4 Approved as Recommended Other_ Vote of Supervisors I HEREBY CERTIFY THAT THIS IS A TRUE AND CORRECT COPY OF AN ACTION TAKEN Unanimous Absent AND ENTERED ON THE MINUTES OF THE Ayes Noes BOARD OF SUPERVISORS ON DATE SHOWN. _ Absent Abstain � L8 :WTFSTAFF.T12 Attested Orig.Div. : PHIL BATCHELOR, cc: Community Development CLERK OF THE BOARD, AND COUNT/Y� ADMINISTRATOR By DEPUTY LER STAFFYN7FOR THE WATER TASK FORCE -2- DECEMBER 16, 1986 A. As a sub-element of the Contra Costa County Water Agency which has its own property tax funding. B. Under Sewer and Water Planning budget of the Community Development Department. C. Provide additional General Fund financing for this Task Force in the Community Development Department budget. Until such time that it is clear as to the amount of activity to be under- taken and the magnitude of the demand upon the current staffing, it seems apparent that this function could be included in the existing Sewage/Water Planning fund of the Community Development Department. The next few months should reveal to us the level of activity that can be expected of the Task Force and whether justification is apparent that would demand special appropriation to the Community Development Department. Engaging consulting services will be given serious consideration during this monitoring period. PEKcl L8 :WTFSTAFF.T12
