INTERNAL OPERATIONS COMMITTEE 4.
Meeting Date:02/12/2018
Subject:APPOINTMENT TO THE EAST CONTRA COSTA FIRE PROTECTION DISTRICT
BOARD OF DIRECTORS
Submitted For: David Twa, County Administrator
Department:County Administrator
Referral No.: IOC 18/5
Referral Name: ADVISORY BODY RECRUITMENT
Presenter: Julie Enea Contact: Julie DiMaggio Enea (925) 335-1077
Referral History:
The East Contra Costa Fire Protection District (“District”) is currently governed by a nine-member appointed Board
of Directors. Four members of the Board of Directors were appointed by the Brentwood City Council, three
members were appointed by the Oakley City Council, and two members were appointed by the Contra Costa County
Board of Supervisors. California law allowed voters to change an appointed fire protection district board of directors
to a board of directors whose members are elected by the voters. The District Board of Directors adopted a
resolution asking voters to decide whether to change the District governing board “from an appointed Board of
Directors of nine members to a Board of Directors of nine members, elected at-large.” A majority of voters in the
November 2016 election supported changing the governing board to an elected board. The District Board
subsequently passed a resolution, attached hereto, establishing even-year elections and requesting to consolidate the
first of these elections with the November 2018 general election.
Additionally, on November 6, 2017, the District Board of Directors adopted a resolution to conduct an all mail
ballot election on March 6, 2018 to transition from a nine-person elected board to a five-person elected board and to
designate the seats "at large" rather than representative of wards. Under either the prospective 9-member or
5-member elected board, the members of the District Board of Directors will be elected at the next general District
election in November 2018, and the elected officers will likely take office on December 7, 2018.
Referral Update:
The terms of office for the two Board of Supervisors-appointed Directors, Robert Kenny and Cheryl Morgan,
expired on February 4, 2018.
On January 16, 2018, following a recruitment conducted by the Internal Operations Committee, the Board of
Supervisors appointed Susanna Thompson (Clayton) and Mark Whitlock (Bethel Island) to the East Contra Costa
Fire Protection District Board of Directors effective February 5, 2018 to fill the two Board of Supervisors-appointed
Director seats. Shortly thereafter, Mr. Whitlock declined the appointment.
Recommendation(s)/Next Step(s):
CONSIDER remaining candidates for one Board of Supervisors appointed seat on the East Contra Costa Fire
Protection District Board of Directors and DETERMINE a recommendation for Board of Supervisors appointment
effective immediately and until such time that an elected successor assumes office:

COMMITTEE 5.
Meeting Date:02/12/2018
Subject:NOMINATION TO THE AFFORDABLE HOUSING
FINANCE COMMITTEE
Submitted For: John Kopchik, Interim Director, Conservation &
Development Department
Department:Conservation & Development
Referral No.: IOC 18/5
Referral Name: ADVISORY BODY RECRUITMENT
Presenter: Kara Douglas, Asst Deputy
DCD Director
Contact: Kara Douglas
925.674.7880
Referral History:
The Affordable Housing Finance Committee advises the Board of Supervisors
on the annual allocation of approximately $1.5 million in HOME Investment
Partnership Act (HOME) and $1.8 million in Community Development Block
Grant (CDBG) funds for affordable housing development in Contra Costa
County. These funds are allocated to the County on an annual basis by formula
through the U.S. Department of Housing and Urban Development.
The Committee consists of nine members, including:
three city representatives (one each from East, Central and West County)
three county representatives; and
three community representatives.
The three city representatives are nominated by the cities in each subregion of
the County and approved by the Board of Supervisors. Nominations for county
and community representatives are solicited by the Department of
Conservation and Development. All county and community representative
appointments to the AHFC are reviewed by the Internal Operations Committee
47
(IOC) and referred to the Board of Supervisors for approval. AHFC terms are
for three years. A current AHFC roster is attached.
Referral Update:
There were five applicants for the vacant County Representative seat: two were
interviewed and the committee is recommending one of them; one did not
come to the scheduled interview; one has withdrawn his application; and the
fifth did not respond to the interview invitation.
With the approval of the nomination, there will remain one vacancy for a
Community representative. A recommendation for a re-appointment to the East
County seat is going to the Board of Supervisors in February.
Recommendation(s)/Next Step(s):
Appoint Natacha (Paige) Simmons to the County Representative 1 seat to a
term expiring on June 30, 2020. Ms Simmons is an East County resident and
will bring a valuable perspective of low-income tenant needs. She has previous
experience in landlord/tenant law.

Employer's Name and Address
My primary client was the high schools and I worked within the Transition Program. I helped the schools'
counseling team to move students from the IDEA program, where they aged out of services, into the Adult
Program at Department of Rehabilitation. Our goals were to train, educate, employ, help and guide
students through their years following high school experiences. The students were transitioning into the
California Adult Services for people with disabilities under the ADA. '
Duties Performed
I collaborated with school officials, teachers, counselors to help students to move through the system
without being left behind. I began working with some students at the age of seventeen, so they could
transition into Services at the Department of Rehabilitation, I did intake notes, wrote Plans for Education
or Employment. I stayed with the student as they moved through the system to gain the skills and ability
to be independent as they could become. I helped them build their own ideas of what they could possibly
do for a job, while educating them about the Occupational Outlook Handbook (OOH), the guide to most
jobs in the United States. By providing the information to the student from resources such as OOH, we
were able to guide the students into the "best fit" occupational training, and job development. We used
California and Federal dollars to provide them with what they needed to become successfully employed,
or as independent as possible in their life style. We closed cases successfully while following the client,
reviewing their goals and their ability to follow through. Also, I went out into the community and gave
training, information and contact information to community services and our partners.

Meeting Date:02/12/2018
Subject:NOMINATIONS TO THE HAZARDOUS MATERIALS
COMMISSION
Submitted For: William Walker, M.D., Health Services Director
Department:Health Services
Referral No.: IOC 18/5
Referral Name: Advisory Body Recruitment
Presenter: Julie DiMaggio Enea Contact: Michael Kent (925)
313-6712
Referral History:
In 2013, IOC reviewed Board Resolution Nos. 2011/497 and 2011/498, which
stipulate that applicants for At Large/Non Agency-Specific seats on specified
bodies are to be interviewed by a Board Committee. The IOC made a
determination that it would delegate the screening and nomination of
Hazardous Materials Commission candidates to the Commission, for review by
the IOC.
The Hazardous Materials Commission was established in 1986 to advise the
Board, County Staff and the mayor's council members, and staffs of the cities
within the County, on issues related to the development, approval and
administration of the County Hazardous Waste Management Plan. Specifically,
the Board charged the Commission with drafting a Hazardous Materials
Storage and Transportation Plan and Ordinance, coordinating the
implementation of the Hazardous Materials Release Response Plan and
inventory program, and analyzing and developing recommendations regarding
hazards materials issues with consideration to broad public input, and reporting
back to the Board on Board referrals.

Referral Update:
The Business Seat #2 and alternate expired on December 31, 2017. The bylaws
of the Commission provide that Business Seat #2 and alternate be nominated
by the Industrial Association, screened by the Internal Operation Committee
and appointed by the Board of Supervisors. The Industrial Association has
nominated Jack Bean for this seat. He previously served as the alternate for
this seat. His letter of support and application are attached. This term expires on
December 31, 2021. The Industrial Association will be meeting soon to
nomination an alternate for this seat.
The Environmental Seat #1 and alternate expired on December 31, 2017. The
bylaws of the Commission provide that Environmental Seat # 1 and alternate
be nominated by an environmental organization, but that no particular
environmental organization will have an exclusive right to nominate an
individual to this seat and therefore, which environmental organization is
represented on the Hazardous Materials Commission rests with the Internal
Operations Committee and ultimately the Board of Supervisors. The Hazardous
Materials Commission advertised for these open seats (see attached), and
received two applications. The Commission determined one of the applicants
was not eligible and they interviewed the other one. On January 25, 2018 they
voted unanimously to recommend that Ralph Sattler be reappointed to the seat
and that Lisa Park be nominated for the alternate seat. Their applications and
letters of support are attached. These terms expire on December 31, 2021.
The Environmental Engineer and alternate seat expired on December 31, 2017.
The bylaws of the Commission provide that one representative of
environmental engineering firms located in Contra Costa County, nominated
by such firms, be screened by the Internal Operations Committee and
appointed by the Board of Supervisors. The Hazardous Materials Commission
advertised for these open seats (see attached) did not receive any new
applications. The Hazardous Materials Commission is recommending the
reappointment of George Smith to the Environmental Engineer seat and Ron
Chinn as his alternate. Their applications are attached. These terms expire on
December 31, 2021.
Recommendation(s)/Next Step(s):
APPROVE for recommendation to the Board of Supervisors the Hazardous

REPORT AND RECOMMENDATIONS
Submitted For: David Twa, County Administrator
Department:County Administrator
Referral No.: IOC 18/7
Referral Name: TRIENNIAL ADVISORY BODY REVIEW
Presenter: Jami Napier (925)
335-1908
Contact: Emlyn Struthers (925)
335-1919
Referral History:
Beginning in 2010 and concluding in 2011/2012, the Board of Supervisors
conducted an extensive review of advisory body policies and composition, and
passed Resolution Nos. 2011/497 and 2011/498, which revised and restated the
Board’s governing principles for the bodies. The Resolutions dealt with all
bodies, whether created by the BOS as discretionary or those that the BOS is
mandated to create by state or federal rules, laws or regulations. The
Resolutions directed the CAO/COB’s Office to institute a method to conduct a
rotating triennial review of each body and to report on the results of that review
and any resulting staff recommendations to the Board, through the IOC, on a
regular basis.
The last triennial review was completed in December 2017.
Referral Update:
Attached is the County Administrator's staff report and recommendations for
117
Attached is the County Administrator's staff report and recommendations for
Phase 1 of the new triennial advisory body review cycle.
Last September, the IOC requested the County Administrator's Office to
review in more depth the issues of member turnover and dissatisfaction within
the Commission for Women. Commission members were invited and many
members commented and provided insight at the September IOC meeting.
Additional staff recommendations pertaining specifically to the Commission
for Women are provided below.
Recommendation(s)/Next Step(s):
1. ACCEPT the Triennial Advisory Body Phase I report, attached, and
APPROVE staff recommendations found at the conclusion of the report.
2. CONSIDER approving additional specific recommendations pertaining to
the Commission for Women:
To safely account for Commission funds and eliminate the Commission's
dependence on outside agencies for funds administration, DIRECT the
County Administrator to create and administer a budgetary organization
unit to account for funds granted and donated to the Commission for
Women and to work with the Commission Chair and Treasurer on a
protocol and procedure to deposit and disburse the funds.
a.
To establish an arm's length relationship between the Commission and the
Friends of the Commission and other supporting agencies, MODIFY the
bylaws of the Commission to stipulate that members of the Commission
may not be members of any organization that donates or grants funds to
the Commission
b.
To foster leadership among all Commission members, MODIFY the
bylaws of the Commission to stipulate that a member may serve as an
officer for no more than two consecutive years.
c.
To sharpen the Commission's focus on its primary mission and to also
minimize its dependence on fundraising, CONSIDER whether or not the
annual Women's Hall of Fame recognition ceremony is consistent with the
Commission's charge and mission, "To educate the community and advise
the Contra Costa County Board of Supervisors on issues relating to the
changing social and economic conditions of women in the County, with
particular emphasis on the economically disadvantaged; to improve the
d.
118
particular emphasis on the economically disadvantaged; to improve the
economic status, social welfare, and overall quality of life for women in
Contra Costa County.”
To help the Commission consistently maintain a meeting quorum,
CONSIDER reducing the membership of the Commission from 20
members (5 District and 15 at large seats) plus one alternate to 15
members (5 District and 10 at large seats) plus one alternate.
e.
Fiscal Impact (if any):
Providing budgetary coordination and support for the Commission for Women
will require a nominal commitment of staff time from the County
Administrator's Office. This function will be performed by current staff.

Triennial Advisory Body Review - Phase I Report with Recommendations

Subject: Triennial Advisory Body Review —Phase I Report
Submitted for the 2/13/18 Meeting of the Internal Operations Committee
Page | 1
Referral History
The Board of Supervisors is the governing authority for approximately 73 advisory boards, commissions,
and committees. These boards serve a variety of governmental functions, both mandatory and
discretionary. In order to formalize a regular, on-going sunset review process, the Board approved
Resolution (2012/261). This resolution was designed to ensure that every three years each advisory
body is reviewed, with approximately a third of the total reviewed each year. Since the new triennial
review process was installed in 2012, one full round of review has been completed. The Board approved
Phase I of this review on December 5, 2016, Phase II on March 21, 2017, and Phase III on December 5,
2017. This report represents the findings of the second round of triennial sunset review for advisory
bodies included in Phase I.
List of Advisory Bodies in Phase I
Since the inception of the current Triennial Review process, one cycle of the process has been
completed for all three phases. Fourteen committees are included in Phase I, which was last completed
in 2015. The fourteen advisory bodies are divided between four mandatory commissions and ten
discretionary commissions.
Mandatory Commissions or Committees
Mandatory commissions include those required under state or federal law. The following four advisory
councils, committees, and commissions are considered mandatory and must be operated .
Advisory Council on Aging (ACOA)
Countywide Bicycle Advisory Committee
Economic Opportunity Council
Hazardous Materials Commission
Discretionary Commissions or Committees
Discretionary commissions are created by the Contra Costa County Board of Supervisors on a voluntary
basis. Contra Costa County created the ten committees below on a voluntary basis to meet community
needs.
Agricultural Advisory Task Force Committee
Alcohol and Other Drugs Advisory Board
Arts and Culture Commission of Contra Costa County (AC5)
Aviation Advisory Committee
Commission for Women
Emergency Medical Care Committee
Historical Landmarks Advisory Committee

Subject: Triennial Advisory Body Review —Phase I Report
Submitted for the 2/13/18 Meeting of the Internal Operations Committee
Page | 2
Referral Update
Since the last Triennial Review, three changes have been made to the list of advisory bodies included in
Phase I of the review. Following the Triennial Review approved in 2016, two committees included in
Phase I have been sunset and one newly-formed committee has been added. As a result of the last cycle
of Triennial Review, the Bay Area Library Information System Advisory Council (BALIS) was sunset by the
Board of Supervisors, and is no longer included in the Triennial Review. Additionally, since the last Phase
I of the review was completed in 2015, the Public and Environmental Health Advisory Board (PEHAB)
was also sunset and is not included.
While two advisory bodies have been sunset, the Board has also created a new advisory body that has
been added to Phase I of the review. The new Sustainability Commission, formed in 2015, has become
fully operational with Board-approved bylaws and full membership. In addition to these changes, one
advisory body that was included in Phase I of the last Triennial Review, the Contra Costa Transportatio n
Authority Bicycle and Pedestrian Advisory Committee, will instead be reviewed in the upcoming Phase II.
Findings
Summary of Findings for Phase I
All of the bodies reviewed in this period are fulfilling their function and no major changes are
recommended. A number of bodies requested assistance in filling their vacant seats, a recurring theme
from the last cycle of review.
Staff from the Clerk of the Board and the County Administrator’s Office (CAO) reviewed the materials
and surveys submitted by the advisory body staff and chairs. No changes to bylaws, membership
requirements, or seat structure are recommended for committees except those highlighted in the
summary findings. This report includes a description of advisory bodies in the Phase I review, along with
a summary of comments or recommendations from the County Administrator.
Mandatory Bodies
Advisory Council on Aging (ACOA)
The Contra Costa County Advisory Council on Aging (ACOA) advises the Area Agency on Aging (AAA) in
all matters related to the development and administration of senior programs in accordance with the
mandates of the Older Americans Act. The Council is composed of 40 authorized member seats
appointed by the Board of Supervisors in partnership with local cities and commissions on aging, the
ACOA Membership Committee, and a designated advisory group – the Nutrition Council. A majority of
the ACOA must be age 60 or older. Members represent the geographic, economic, capacity, cultural,
sexual orientation, and ethnic diversity of the County.
Staff Comments/Recommendations
Staff have reviewed the Advisory Council on Aging’s Triennial Review submission, and do not currently
suggest changes to the ACOA’s bylaws or operations.
Countywide Bicycle Advisory Committee
The Countywide Bicycle Advisory Committee provides input to Contra Costa County and the cities in the
County on the use of Transportation Development Act (TDA) funds to construct bicycle and pedestrian
121
Subject: Triennial Advisory Body Review —Phase I Report
Submitted for the 2/13/18 Meeting of the Internal Operations Committee
Page | 3
projects. The Bicycle Advisory Committee also provides advice to the cities and the County on bicycle
and pedestrian planning matters.
Staff Comments/Recommendations
Staff does not recommend any changes to the operations or bylaws of the Bicycle Advisory Committee
at this time.
Economic Opportunity Council
The Economic Opportunity Council (EOC) is responsible for assuring that Community Action Agencies
assess and responds to the causes and conditions of poverty in the community, achieve anticipated
family and community outcomes, and remain administratively and fiscally sound.
Staff Comments/Recommendations
The EOC states that in the past, they have relied heavily on the mission and laws that are embodied in
the Community Services Blog Grant (CSBG) Information Memorandum #82, regarding Tripartite Boards.
However, the EOC has identified that creating a mission statement is a priority and will be completed as
part of the strategic plan in the upcoming months. Staff will monitor the EOC’s progress and provide
guidance, as requested.
Hazardous Materials Commission
Th e Hazardous Materials Commission was established in 1983 by the Contra Costa County Board of
Supervisors. Its charge is to develop overall policy recommendations for hazardous materials and wastes
and advise the Board, local elected officials, and county and city staff.
Staff Comments/Recommendations
Staff does not recommend any changes to the operations or bylaws of the Hazardous Materials
Commission at this time.
Discretionary Bodies
Agricultural Advisory Task Force Committee
The Agricultural Advisory Task Force Committee was created to advise and provide recommendations to
the Board of Supervisors on matters that relate to preserving and promoting agriculture in Contra Costa
County. The Agricultural Advisory Task Force was originally established on March 25, 1991 to advise the
Board on agricultural and open space issues, but ceased to be an active committee. Then, on March 28,
2000, the Board authorized the re-establishment of the Agricultural Advisory Task Force and directed
the Community Development Department to develop guidelines and to establish a process for recruiting
and seating new members. However, in recent years, the advisory body has held no meetings. In 2016,
efforts were made to revitalize the group and establish bylaws. However, progress has stalled, due in
part to staff turnover.
Staff Comments/Recommendations
The status of the Agricultural Advisory Task Force Committee was last discussed at the November 9,
2017 meeting of the Internal Operations Committee, where further actions to reconstitute the task
force were suspended.

Alcohol and Other Drugs Advisory Board
The mission of the Alcohol and Other Drugs Advisory Board is to assess family and community needs
regarding prevention and treatment for alcohol and other drug related problems. Resultant findings and
recommendations are forwarded to the Health Services Department and the Board of Supervisors.
Staff Comments/Recommendations
The Board has been having difficulty in filling vacant seats and has made the comment that eliminating
vacant seats would ensure a quorum is met. As of January 19, 2018, nine of the 18 seats are vacant.
Additionally, seven meetings were cancelled during the last 36 months specifically due to lack of a
quorum. Currently, the Board is updating their bylaws, which are under review by County Counsel.
During this bylaw update, staff recommends that the Board consider its membership composition and
number of seats in order to more readily achieve a quorum.
Arts and Culture Commission of Contra Costa County
The purpose of the Arts and Culture Commission of Contra Costa County (AC5) is to advise the Board of
Supervisors in matters and issues relevant to Arts and Culture. The AC5 seeks to advance the arts in a
way that promotes communication, education, appreciation and collaboration throughout Contra Costa
County, as well as to preserve, celebrate, and share the arts and culture of the many diverse ethnic
groups who live in Contra Costa County. They aim to create partnerships with business and government,
and to increase communications and understanding between all citizens through art. Broadly, the
Commission strives to promote arts and culture as a vital element in the quality of life for all of the
citizens of Contra Costa County.
Staff Comments/Recommendations
The AC5 is currently in the process of revising their bylaws. As of this writing, the AC5’s bylaws are
undergoing preliminary review by County Counsel. Staff will monitor the development of the updated
bylaws and provide assistance, as requested.
Aviation Advisory Committee
The purpose of the Aviation Advisory Committee (AAC) is to provide advice and recommendations to the
Board of Supervisors on aviation issues that are: (i) related to the economic viability and security of
airports in CCC, and (ii) affect the general welfare of people living and working near the Airports and in
the broader community. The AAC may conduct public discussions and hear comments on airport and
aviation interests relative to the safe and orderly operation of airports in order to formulate the
recommendations it makes to the Board. The AAC may conduct discussions with local, state, and
national aviation interests relative to the safe and orderly operation of airports in order to formulate the
recommendation it makes to the Board. At the request of the Director of Airports, the AAC shall provide
the Director of Airports a forum within which to discuss policy matters affecting the County's Airports.
Staff Comments/Recommendations
Staff does not recommend any changes to the operations or bylaws of the Aviation Advisory Committee
at this time .
Commission for Women
The Contra Costa Commission for Women (the CCCW) was formed to educate the community and
advise the Contra Costa County Board of Supervisors and other entities as necessary on issues relating
123
Subject: Triennial Advisory Body Review —Phase I Report
Submitted for the 2/13/18 Meeting of the Internal Operations Committee
Page | 5
to the changing social and economic conditions of women in the County, with particular emphasis on
the economically disad vantaged. The CCCW’s stated mission is “to improve the economic status, social
welfare, and overall quality of life for women in Contra Costa County.”
Staff Comments/Recommendations
While the current Commission Chair did not submit a final triennial review survey, responses were
received from Beth Mora (Co-Chair from 3/2017-7/2016), Lauren Babb (Current District IV Member),
and Jennifer Cohen (Listed as Fiscal Liaison in the Commission’s 2017 meeting minutes).
There were a few recurring themes in the surveys submitted and the Commission does not appear to be
performing as effectively as it could be. During the review period, a number of issues arose and have
been discussed at the Internal Operations Committee meetings. Among other issues, the committee has
experienced turnover with no fewer than eleven members (out of a membership of 20) resigning during
the three-year review period. Suggested changes include updating the bylaws to provide more clarity on
the Commission’s mission and the responsibilities of its members as well as realign its priorities to the
community’s current issues and needs. Additionally, the Commission should consider issuing term limits
and reducing the number of seats in their bylaws. The bylaws and other establishing documents should
be updated to address the relationship between Commission members and the Friends of the Contra
Costa Commission for Women.
Emergency Medical Care Committee
The Emergency Medical Care Committee acts in an advisory capacity to the Board and the County Health
Services Director on matters relating to emergency medical services.
Staff Comments/Recommendations
The Emergency Medical Care Commission updated their bylaws on January 5, 2016 and staff does not
recommend additional changes during the review period.
Historical Landmarks Advisory Committee
The purpose of the Contra Costa County Historical Landmarks Advisory Committee (HLAC) is to advise
the Board of Supervisors on matters relating to the identification and preservation of historical
resources within the County, including identifying eligible sites and places to be listed in the County's
Historic Resources Inventory.
Staff Comments/Recommendations
No operational concerns have been raised with the Historical Landmarks Advisory Committee during the
review period. During the last cycle of Triennial Review, staff examined whether the functions of the
HLAC could be performed by another body. However, the Conservation and Development Director
requested that the Board of Supervisors continue the HLAC as an advisory body to both the Department
and the Supervisors, without changes to its structure, membership, or duties.
Integrated Pest Management Advisory Committee
The Integrated Pest Management (IPM) Advisory Committee lists six purposes in their bylaws. At a high-
level, they seek to promote a coordinated County-wide effort to implement IPM in the County in a
manner that is consistent with the Board-adopted IPM Policy. Broadly, they serve as a resource to help
Department Heads and the Board of Supervisors review and improve existing pest management

programs and the processes for making pest management decisions. Additionally, they make policy
recommendations upon assessment of current pest issues and evaluation of possible IPM solutions.
As a result of the last cycle of Triennial Review, an advisory board that had a dedicated seat on the IPM
Advisory Council was abolished. In November 2016, the Board of Supervisors abolished the Public and
Environmental Health Advisory Board (PEHAB) as part of the Phase I Triennial Advisory Body Review. The
abolishment of PEHAB left in question the disposition of the PEHAB seat on the IPM Advisory
Committee. Ultimately, the seat was retained as a voting seat, and was designated to be a seat for a
nominated member of the Sustainability Commission. The new bylaws were reviewed in the Internal
Operations Subcommittee in November 2017, and were approved by the Board of Supervisors o n
December 5, 2017.
Staff Comments/Recommendations
The IPM Advisory Committee adopted new bylaws in December 2017 to update their seats, with no
other substantial changes . Staff does not recommend any additional changes during this review period.
Library Commission
The Contra Costa County Library Commission was originally established in March 1991 for a two-year
period and has been reauthorized by both the Board of Supervisors and the Mayors Conference for
continuance. The original purpose and responsibility of the Commission includes five parts: 1) To serve
in an advisory capacity to the Board of Supervisors and the County Librarian; 2) To provide community
linkage to the County Library; 3) To establish a forum for the community to express its views regarding
the goals and operations of the County Library; 4) To assist the Board of Supervisors and the County
Librarian to provide library services based on assessed public need; and 5) To develop and recommend
proposals to the Board of Supervisors and the County Librarian for the betterment of the County Library
including, but not limited to, such efforts as insuring a stable and adequate funding level for the libraries
in the County.
Staff Comments/Recommendations
Library Commission was reauthorized through December 31, 2019, with a revised composition of 24
voting members and 4 non-voting special representatives. The City of Richmond elected to leave the
commission. The County Librarian was directed to return to the Board with recommendations for
revised Commission bylaws, which were last updated on December 13, 2016.
Sustainability Commission
The Sustainability Commission was officially established November 15, 2016 to carry out three
categories of responsibilities. First, the commission provides advice to staff and the Board on successful
implementation of the Climate Action Plan, including suggestions on how that work can be performed
more efficiently and effectively. Second, the Commission advises the Board on opportunities to realize
equity and fairness across the diverse communities of Contra Costa County in sustainability programs
that support the Climate Action Plan. Third, the Commission provides suggestions to staff and the Board
on how to better engage Contra Costa County residents and businesses on sustainability issues and
implementation of the Climate Action Plan.

matters related to solid waste enforcement, permits, and appeals.
County residents who have an interest in public policy and solid waste management are
encouraged to apply for this non-paid volunteer opportunity. The County Board of
Supervisors will appoint to fill three vacancies for a three-year term ending on March 31,
2021.
Application forms can be obtained from the Clerk of the Board of Supervisors by calling
(925) 335-1900 or by visiting the County webpage at www.co.contra-costa.ca.us.
Applications should be returned to the Clerk of the Board of Supervisors, Room 106,
County Administration Building, 651 Pine Street, Martinez, CA 94553 no later than 5:00

ATTACHMENT B
SUMMARY OF 2018 REFERRALS TO THE
INTERNAL OPERATIONS COMMITTEE
1. Small Business Enterprise (SBE) and Outreach Programs. The Board of Supervisors has set
a goal of awarding at least 50% of eligible product and service dollars to small businesses. The
Small Business Enterprise (SBE) Program applies to: (1) County-funded construction contracts
of $100,000 or less; (2) purchasing transactions of $100,000 or less; and (3) professional/
personal service contracts of $100,000 or less. Businesses included under these programs
include:
Small Business Enterprise (SBE)
Minority Business Enterprise (MBE)
Women Business Enterprise (WBE)
Disadvantaged Business Enterprise (DBE)
Disabled Veteran Business Enterprise (DVBE)
Local Business Enterprise (LBE)
The Outreach Program requires that the County perform solicitation to a minimum of three
vendors. A minimum of 50% of the vendors solicited must be an SBE, MBE, WBE, DBE,
DVBE or LBE. It does not establish a requirement for awarding contracts.
The IOC accepted two reports from the Purchasing Services Manager, together covering the
period July through June 2017, and reported out to the Board of Supervisors on April 25 and
October 17, 2017. No changes to the SBE and Outreach Programs were recommended. This is
a standing referral.
2. County Financial Audit Program. Since 2000, the IOC reviews, each February, the annual
schedule of audits and best practices studies proposed by the Auditor-Controller. The Auditor-
Controller’s Office presented a report of their 2016 audits and the proposed 2017 Audit Schedule
to the IOC on February 13, 2017. This is a standing referral.
3. Annual Report on Fleet Internal Service Fund and Disposition of Low Mileage Vehicles.
Each year, the Public Works Department Fleet Manager has analyzed the fleet and annual
vehicle usage, and made recommendations to the IOC on the budget year vehicle replacements
and on the intra-County transfer of underutilized vehicles, in accordance with County policy. In
FY 2008/09, following the establishment of an Internal Services Fund (ISF) for the County Fleet,
to be administered by Public Works, the Board requested the IOC to review annually the Public
Works department report on the fleet and on low-mileage vehicles.
The IOC received the 2015/16 fleet report on March 13, 2017 and reported out to the Board of
Supervisors on March 21, 2017. This is a standing referral.
136
4. Local Bid Preference Program. In 2005, the Board of Supervisors adopted the local bid
preference ordinance to support small local business es and stimulate the local economy, at no
additional cost to the County. Under the program, if the low bid in a commodities purchase is not
from a local vendor, any responsive local vendor who submitted a bid over $25,000 that was
within 5% percent of the lowest bid has the option to submit a new bid. The local vendor will be
awarded if the new bid is in an amount less than or equal to the lowest responsive bid, allowing
the County to favor the local vendor but not at the expense of obtaining the lowest offered
price. Since adoption of the ordinance, the IOC has continued to monitor the effects of the
program through annual reports prepared and presented by the Purchasing Agent or designee.
The Purchasing Services Manager made a FY 2016/17 report to the IOC on September 11, 2017
and the IOC reported out to the Board of Supervisors on October 17, 2017. This is a standing
referral.
5. Advisory Body Recruitments. On December 12, 2000, the Board of Supervisors approved a
policy on the process for recruiting applicants for selected advisory bodies of the Board. This
policy requires an open recruitment for all vacancies to At Large seats appointed by the Board.
The IOC made a determination that it would conduct interviews for At Large seats on the
following bodies: Retirement Board, Fire Advisory Commission, Integrated Pest Management
Advisory Committee, Planning Commission, Treasury Oversight Board, Airport Land Use
Commission, Aviation Advisory Committee and the Fish & Wildlife Committee; and that
screening and nomination to fill At Large seats on all other eligible bodies would be delegated to
each body or a subcommittee thereof.
In 2017, the IOC submitted recommendations to the Board of Supervisors to fill 14 vacant seats
on various committees and commissions. The IOC interviewed 8 individuals for seats on the
Retirement Board, East Bay Regional Parks Advisory Committee, East Contra Costa Fire
Protection District Board of Directors, and the Law Library. In 2018, the IOC will need to
recruit and interview for CCCFPD Advisory Fire Commission, the County Planning
Commission, the East Bay Regional Parks Advisory Committee, the Local Enforcement Agency
Independent Hearing Panel, the Public Law Library Board of Trustees, and the Redevelopment
Successor Oversight Board. This is a standing referral.
6. Process for Allocation of Propagation Funds by the Fish and Wildlife Committee. On
November 22, 2010, the IOC received a status report from Department of Conservation and
Development (DCD) regarding the allocation of propagation funds by the Fish and Wildlife
Committee (FWC). The IOC accepted the report along with a recommendation that IOC conduct
a preliminary review of annual FWC grant recommendations prior to Board of Supervisors
review. On April 10, 2017, the IOC received a report from DCD proposing, on behalf of the
FWC, the 2017 Fish and Wildlife Propagation Fund Grant awards. The IOC approved the
proposal and, on April 25, 2017, recommended grant awards for six projects totaling $102,185,
which the Board of Supervisors unanimously approved. This is a standing referral.
7. Advisory Body Triennial Review. Beginning in 2010 and concluding in 2011/2012, the
Board of Supervisors conducted an extensive review of advisory body policies and composition,
and passed Resolution Nos. 2011/497 and 2011/498, which revised and restated the Board’s
137
governing principles for the bodies. The Resolutions dealt with all bodies, whether created by the
BOS as discretionary or those that the BOS is mandated to create by state or federal rules, laws
or regulations. The Resolutions directed the CAO/COB’s Office to institute a met hod to conduct
a rotating triennial review of each body and to report on the results of that review and any
resulting staff recommendations to the Board, through the IOC, on a regular basis.
The first phase report of the current Triennial Review Cycle was completed in 2015/16. The
second phase was completed early in 2017 and the third phase was completed in July 2017. The
IOC reported out to the Board of Supervisors on March 21, 2017 and December 5, 2017.
Phase I of the next Triennial Review is in progress and will be scheduled for review by the 2018
Committee. This is a standing referral.
8. Animal Benefit Fund Review. On April 21, 2015, the Board of Supervisors received
several comments regarding the Animal Benefit Fund from members of the public during fiscal
year 2015/16 budget hearings. On May 12, 2015, the Board of Supervisors adopted the fiscal
year 2015/16 budget, including formal referral of this issue to the Internal Operations
Committee. On September 14, 2015 IOC received a staff report summarizing prior year
expenditures and current fund balance of the Animal Benefit Fund. On March 28, 2016, the IOC
approved a proposal to expand the animal services donation program and reported out to the
Board of Supervisors on April 19, 2016. The Board Order directed the Animal Services Director
to report annually to the IOC on the impact of the Animal Benefit Fund on the community and
families, creating a new standing referral. On September 11, 2017, the IOC received the first
annual report on the Animal Benefit Fund covering FY 2016/17 and reported out to the Board of
Supervisors on October 17, 2017. This is a standing referral.
9. Commission for Women Member Attrition. The IOC held a discussion of the recent spate of
member resignations, and concerns that had been expressed by some members about the
Commission not closely adhering to the mission established by the BOS, and a requirement of
members to raise funds for the Commission but a with perceived inability to influence how
raised funds were utilized. The Asst. Clerk of the Board advised that the Commission for
Women would be included in the next phase of the triennial advisory body review. The staff
report with recommendations is scheduled to be presented to the IOC in February 2018, at which
time the IOC will consider any additional actions to be taken and direction to staff.
10. Waste Hauler Ordinance. On May 8, 2012, the Board of Supervisors referred to the Internal
Operations Committee a proposal to develop a waste hauler ordinance. The IOC received a
preliminary report from the Environmental Health (EH) Division of the Health Services
Department on May 14, 2012 and regular status reports throughout the next several years
showing substantial work and progress. Staff subsequently identified issues with the interplay
between the proposal and current franchise agreements that had to be examined before the
County could proceed with an ordinance. The IOC continued to work on a draft ordinance with
138
staff and the franchises throughout 2015 and 2016, and introduced an ordinance on July 11,
2017. The Board directed staff to modify the ordinance on August 15, 2017 and again on
September 26, 2017. The ordinance was modified and adopted by the Board of Supervisors on
December 5, 2017, with the newly approved non-franchise solid waste hauler permit program to
take effect on March 1, 2018. The Board of Supervisors, on January 23, 2018, adopted
Environmental Health permit fees in the amount of $220 per vehicle and a performance bond
rate of $50,000. Inconsistencies between the new ordinance and the franchise agreements
remain unresolved.
11. Redevelopment Successor Oversight Board – Public Member Recruitment. On February 6,
2018, the Board of Supervisors referred to the Internal Operations Committee recruitment for the
Public Member of the newly formed Oversight Board.
The California state legislature enacted Assembly Bill x1 26 to dissolve redevelopment agencies
formed under the Community Redevelopment Law (Health and Safety Code Section 33000 et
seq.); and on February 1, 2012, the redevelopment agencies in 17 jurisdictions in Contra Costa
County were dissolved. Each of these jurisdictions declared that they would act as successor
agency for their dissolved Redevelopment Agencies. Oversight Boards for each of these 17
Successor Agencies were established in accordance with the Dissolution Act.
Commencing on and after July 1, 2018, in each county where more than one oversight board was
created there will be only one oversight board which shall be staffed by the county auditor-
controller or by another county entity selected by the county auditor-controller. The auditor-
controller has selected the Contra Costa County Department of Conservation (DCD) as the
County-entity to staff the countywide oversight board. Pursuant to Section 34183, the county
auditor-controller may recover directly from the Redevelopment Property Tax Trust Fund, and
distribute to the appropriate city or county entity, reimbursement for all costs incurred by it or by
the city or county pursuant to this subdivision, which shall include any associated startup costs.
The oversight board will be composed by:
(1) One member may be appointed by the county board of supervisors.
(2) One member may be appointed by the city selection committee established pursuant
to Section 50270 of the Government Code. In a city and county, the mayor may
appoint one member.
(3) One member may be appointed by the independent special district selection
committee established pursuant to Section 56332 of the Government Code, for the
types of special districts that are eligible to receive property tax revenues pursuant to
Section 34188.
(4) One member may be appointed by the county superintendent of education to
represent schools if the superintendent is elected. If the county superintendent of
education is appointed, then the appointment made pursuant to this paragraph shall be
made by the county board of education.
(5) One member may be appointed by the Chancellor of the California Community
Colleges to represent community college districts in the county.
(6) One member of the public may be appointed by the county board of supervisors.
(7) One member may be appointed by the recognized employee organization representing
the largest number of successor agency employees in the county.
