The draft Revitalization Report and the proposals for restructuring the membership and duties of Library Commission were received very positively by the Supervisors. The Supervisors thanked the Commissioners for re-imagining the duties and structure of the Commission and commended them on all the work completed, to date. The Supervisors commented that having the Report still in draft affords the perfect opportunity for the incoming County Librarian to familiarize herself with the work that has already been done and for her and library administrative staff to continue to work with the Commissioners to finalize the document. The Supervisors reviewed and agreed with the recommendations from the Mayor’s Conference ad hoc committee, the Library Commission and Library administration and CAO staff to reauthorize the Commission until the end of December, 2019, and directed library and county staff to bring reauthorization of the Commission and action a finalized Revitalization Report to the Board of Supervisors before the end of 2016. Highlights of the recommendations were: The Library Commission proposed a slightly smaller voting membership structure that retains alternate members and changes most of the Special Representatives (except the Central Labor Council) to ex-officio/non-voting status. Alternates would vote only in the absence of the regular appointee. In addition, the City of Richmond passed a resolution to give up its membership on the Commission. With these changes, voting membership becomes 24, with 13 voting attendees needed for a quorum. Off-cycle voting for a new Chair or Vice Chair will be allowed, to ensure that both a Chair and Vice Chair will be in place if a mid-term resignation occurs. The agenda will be streamlined and notice and opportunities for the public to comment on issues will be made clearer and more prominent. The number of meetings will remain at six per year. Minutes will be streamlined and distributed electronically to members, unless requested otherwise. Requests for information will be routed to designated library staff through the Chair of the Commission or an ad hoc committee chair. Library Commission advisory duties will focus on planning, policy review, financial review, advocacy and funding recommendations, community outreach, support and advocacy for Library services. 6 The prohibition against inquiry or investigation into personnel policies and practices and the day-to-day administrative operations of the County Library will continue in place.    AYE: Chair John Gioia, Vice Chair Candace Andersen  Passed  8.The next meeting is currently scheduled for October 24, 2016.   9.Adjourn    Chairman Gioia adjourned the meeting at 12:00 p.m.     For Additional Information Contact:  Julie DiMaggio Enea, Committee Staff Phone (925) 335-1077, Fax (925) 646-1353 julie.enea@cao.cccounty.us 7 INTERNAL OPERATIONS COMMITTEE 4.

The IOC has provided policy oversight on these programs since inception, including surveying County departments on the implementation of the SBE and Outreach Programs. In December 2004, the Internal Operations Committee directed the Affirmative Action Officer to make status reports to the Committee on a semi-annual basis. The IOC received the last report in October 2015, which covered calendar year 2014. Referral Update: Attached is the SBE and Outreach Program Report, reflecting departmental program data for the three semiannual periods of January 1-June 30, 2015, July 1-December 31, 2015, and January 1-June 30, 2016. Recommendation(s)/Next Step(s): ACCEPT the Small Business Enterprise and Outreach Report covering the period January - December 2015 and CONSIDER staff recommendations on the Small Business Enterprise Program. Fiscal Impact (if any): Increasing the participation of small businesses, especially local businesses, in contracting opportunities may directly stimulate local economic activity and therefore potentially increase County tax revenues. 25 Attachments Small Business Enterprise and Outreach Program Report_Jan 2015-Jun 2016 26 27 28 29 30 31 32 33 34 35 36 37 38 39 40 41 42 43 44 45 46 47 48 49 50 51 52 53 54 55 56 57 58 59 60
