Appoint to .. the Solid Waste Commission representing the Contra Costa Mayors ' Conference: James J. Sweeny Town Council, Town of Moraga 6 . Amend Recommendation # 3 in the Board' s Order on appointments to the Integrated Waste Management Task Force and Solid Waste Commission dated January 15, 1991, to correct the . appointment date for Elizabeth Rimbault as the representative from Delta Diablo Sanitation District to read as follows: "Once the resignation of Mary Rocha as the representative from the Delta Diablo Sanitation District has been received and acted on by the Board of Supervisors, direct the Clerk of the Board of Supervisors to make the mandatory posting of the vacancy and then appoint Elizabeth Rimbault as the representative from the Delta Diablo Sanitation District effective on the date that the ten day mandatory posting of the vacancy expires." BACKGROUND: The "Other Sanitary Districts" have a seat on both the Integrated Waste Management Task Force and the Solid Waste Commission. On the nomination of the Oakley Sanitary District, the Board of Supervisors appointed Dorothy Sakazaki. Ms. Sakazaki has indicated that she does not wish to be appointed to serve as a member of these groups, even though she is active in attending their meetings and in following solid waste issues in the County. Two other Districts, the Kensington Community Services District and Rodeo Sanitary District, nominated. . individuals for consideration for this seat. We are asking that each individual complete an application and advise our Committee in writing what their interest is in these appointments. We anticipate receiving this information in time for our February 25, 1991 meeting and will forward a recommendation to the Board of Supervisors thereafter. The Contra Costa Mayors' Conference likewise has a seat on both the Integrated Waste Management Task Force and the Solid Waste Commission for which they provide a nomination. Staff has been advised that the Mayors' Conference has nominated James J. Sweeny of Moraga as their nominee. It is, therefore, our pleasure to recommend his appointment to the Task Force and the Solid Waste Commission. When the Board acted on January 15, 1991 to appoint Elizabeth Rimbault to the seat belonging to the Delta Diablo Sanitation District, Mary Rocha had not yet resigned from the Integrated Waste Management Task Force. The Board of Supervisors accepted her resignation on January 22, 1991. Therefore, it is not possible to appoint Elizabeth Rimbault to the vacancy until the vacancy has been posted by the Clerk of the Board following the acceptance of the resignation by the Board of Supervisors. We are, therefore, recommending that the Board' s order of January 15, 1991 be corrected as noted.
