BACKGROUND:
On February 11, 1986,' the Board approved the recommendations of
our Committee and agreed to form a Blue Ribbon Committee on the
financing of County services and provided a charge for that
committee. Individual Board Members were asked to submit program
priorities which should be considered by the Blue Ribbon
Committee. The County Administrator was asked to report to our
Committee on February 24 with a listing of the Board Members'
proposed priorities and a list of organizations which should be
considered for membership on the Blue Ribbon Committee.
Our Committee reviewed and modified the list of organizations
submitted by the County Administrator at our meeting on
February 24 and concluded that the above-noted organizations
would most appropriately represent the broad and varied interests
of the community in dealing with the charge outlined to the
committee.
While most Board Members have submitted specific program
priorities which will be shared with the Blue Ribbon Committee,
our Committee is also recommending that no specific limitations
be placed on the programs or priorities which the committee
should consider for funding via a ballot proposition. We believe
that all programs which have been mentioned for possible funding
via a ballot proposition be considered and that, in addition, any
other programs which the committee considers to have high voter
support be considered.
Once the Blue Ribbon Committee reports its findings and
recommendations to the Board, the Board will need to make
decisions on whether to place the matter before the voters and
will then need to designate a separate committee to operate as a
campaign committee for the ballot proposition.
