BACKGROUND: (CONT'D)
on proposed boundary changes effecting the community. The Council may advocate on parks and recreation issues to
the Town of Danville and the San Ramon Valley Unified School District.
In December 2012, the Board of Supervisors authorized the addition of a Youth Representative seat for the Alamo
MAC to allow the youth of Alamo an opportunity to participate in local government The Board set the term for office
for the Youth Representative seat to one year, expiring annually on December 31.
On January 14, 2014, the Board of Supervisors approved a general modification to the countywide MAC policy
providing the option for a District Supervisor to add, upon Board approval, one youth seat to any MAC and one
alternate seat to any 7-member MAC. In accordance with the modified MAC policy, I am requesting the addition of
an Alternate seat to the Alamo MAC to a four-year term of office, with the initial term expiring on January 1, 2017.
CONSEQUENCE OF NEGATIVE ACTION:
The Alamo MAC could continue to face quorum issues and youth will not be allowed the opportunity to participate
in local government.
