ATTESTED: November 12, 2013 David Twa, County Administrator and Clerk of the Board of Supervisors By: June McHuen, Deputy cc: D.2 To:Board of Supervisors From:David Twa, County Administrator Date:November 12, 2013 Contra Costa County Subject:Proposed 2014 Meeting Schedule for Contra Costa Board of Supervisors and Fire Protection District BACKGROUND: Each year the Board of Supervisors adopts a meeting schedule that designates regular meeting dates and any dates on which meetings must be canceled in anticipation that a quorum of the Board will not be present. In past years, the Board has canceled those meetings that fall during a week with a County holiday, the fifth Tuesday of a month, and Tuesdays that fall during those weeks in March, May, July, and November in which the annual policy and legislative meetings of the National Association of Counties (NACo) and the California State of Counties (CSAC) are held: Conference Dates Location NACo Legislative Conference March 1-5, 2014 Washington, D.C. CSAC Legislative Conference May 14-15, 2014 Sacramento, CA NACo Annual Conference & Exposition July 11-15, 2014 New Orleans, LA CSAC Annual Meeting November 18-21, 2014 Anaheim, CA The proposed meeting schedule provides 32 meetings for the Contra Costa County Board of Supervisors and 10 meetings for the Contra Costa County Fire Protection District Board of Directors. The proposed calendar is also coordinated with the Contra Costa Housing Authority, whose adopted schedule is shown for information. The proposed meeting schedule takes into consideration County holidays and those Tuesdays that fall during those weeks in March, July and November in which the annual policy and legislative meetings of the National Association of Counties (NACo) and the California State Association of Counties (CSAC) are held, with the exception of the May CSAC Legislative Conference, which does not conflict with the Tuesday Board meeting that week. The proposed meeting schedule recognizes the time demands on the Board of Supervisors members due to their participation on Board standing committees, and numerous regional and local legislative bodies and task forces, which require preparation, attendance, and involve travel. The proposed schedule also recognizes the fact that the County is a much leaner organization in terms of management and administrative staff whose attendance is often required at Board of Supervisors meetings. There are legal provisions to schedule a special meeting to address any urgent need that cannot be accommodated in the standing meeting schedule. The attached 2014 proposed meeting schedule has been prepared in consultation with the incoming Board Chair and the new Fire Chief, and is recommended for the Board's adoption. CONSEQUENCE OF NEGATIVE ACTION: None. CHILDREN'S IMPACT STATEMENT: None. CLERK'S ADDENDUM ADOPTED as amended to delete July 22, 2014 meeting date and reschedule the Fire Protection District meeting to take place on July 29, 2014.
