BACKGROUND: Legislation was signed by the Governor in September which becomes effective January 1, 1988 . This legislation (AB 1590, Chapter 482 , Statutes of 1987) makes changes in the size and composition of the Adult Day Health Care Planning Council. The above recommended actions are necessary to conform Contra Costa County' s Adult Day Health Care Planning Council to this new legislation. The Council will now consist of 17 members, nine of whom are over 55 years of age, who have a demonstrated interest in the special health and social needs of the elderly and who are representative of organizations dedicated primarily to the needs of older persons, including those of low-income and racial and ethnic minorities. Chapter 482 also abolishes the Health Systems Agency seat and adds seats for a functionally impaired adult and a representative of the Social Services Department.
