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 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 February 21-25, 2015 Washington, D.C.
CSAC Legislative Conference May 27-28, 2015 Sacramento, CA
NACo Annual Conference & Exposition July 10-13, 2015 Charlotte, NC
CSAC Annual Meeting December 1-4, 2015 Monterey, CA
The proposed meeting schedule provides 30 meetings for the Contra Costa County Board of Supervisors and 12
meetings for each the Contra Costa County Fire Protection District Board of Directors and the Housing Authority
of Contra Costa Board of Commissioners. The proposed meeting schedule takes into consideration County
holidays and those Tuesdays that fall during those weeks in February, May, July and December 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. 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 2015 proposed meeting schedule has been prepared in consultation with the incoming Board Chair,
the County Administrator, Fire Chief and the Housing Authority Executive Director, and is recommended for the
Board's adoption. The Fire District and Housing Authority will take independent action to adopt their meeting
schedules.
CONSEQUENCE OF NEGATIVE ACTION:
None.
CHILDREN'S IMPACT STATEMENT:
None.
CLERK'S ADDENDUM
ADOPTED the calendar as amended to add a meeting on November 3, 2015.
