Costa
DATE: October 2, 1990 County
SUBJECT: Public Information About County Issues
SPECIFIC REQUEST(S) OR RECOMMENDATION(S) & BACKGROUND AND JUSTIFICATION
RECOMMENDATION:
In conjunction with the County Administrator' s Office, the
Internal Operations Committee develop a program for
providing public information and education about county
issues to the public.
BACKGROUND:
County government is confronted with such a wide spectrum of
responsibilities and challenges that the public is not
adequately aware of the many functions of county government
or sufficiently informed about county responsibilities.
Further, so many of the issues are technically complex that
it is impossible for the existing media to provide complete
news coverage.
Since an informed public is essential to an involved
citizenry, it is more important than ever to develop a
program of public information that can provide the public
with complete and accurate facts about county issues.
