7 . ACKNOWLEDGE receipt of the attached set of bylaws from the
Pacheco Municipal Advisory Council .
BACKGROUND:
The term of office of three members of the Pacheco Municipal
Advisory Council expired November 30, 1993 . Only one of the three
has asked to be reappointed. In addition, our Committee has been
advised that one member of the Pacheco Municipal Advisory Council
has not been attending meetings on a regular basis and that his
seat should, therefore, be declared vacant.
We have advertised for these vacancies : On December 13, 1993, our
Committee interviewed six of the applicants . We are making the
above recommendations as a result of the interviews we conducted.
We are also asking that the Board of Supervisors acknowledge
receipt of the by-laws of the Pacheco Municipal Advisory Council,
although we are not asking that the Board of Supervisors actually
approve them. In this way, the by-laws can be changed by the
Pacheco MAC without having to return them to the Board of
Supervisors each time for approval .

December 16, 1993
To: Internal Operations Committee
From: Wally Wiggs, Chair, PMAC
Subject: Placement of 2 PMAC menbers on inactive list.
Two of our PMAC members were remiss in their behavior, and as a
result, the remaining 5 members voted to to place them on the in-
active ,l,ist. . .This .occurred at our November 1.0th meeting.... ,
Dan Tennille, our.. Secretary, was in violation of Article VI,,. Sec-
tion I, subsection (d) :inthat he did NOT "act in the.'best 'inter-
est of PMAC and Pacheco between meetings." He was accused of and
admitted to. circulating a petition for his neighbors to annex to
the city of Pleasant Hill. During our October meeting Tennille
agreed to resign because he had a conflict of interest.
Fred Schaefer, our Treasurer, was in violation of Article IV,
Section II, subsection (a) in that he had more than two consec-
utive unexcused absences from scheduled...monthly meetings.
After I rewrote the PMAC Constitution and it was approved by PMAC
in July, 1993, I personally carried a copy to. Schaefer and I told
him according to the Constitution he could be placed on the.
inactive list if he continued to have unexcused absences. He
told me it. was difficult for him to attend meetings because he
was employed as a bartender in a town far North of Pacheco After
Schaefer missed the August,. September, and October meeting, PMAC
voted him inactive at the November meeting
The PMAC members respectfully request that the inactive offices
of Tennille and.•S,chae.far .bel-:declared-:..vacant-b the. :Board..::o:f. .
Supervisors, and .that :new:'members,'be .-appoX-nted:� to
.
In my opinion there should be (5) five vacancies for PMAC for the
year of 1994 Wiggs, Tennille, and Tobby had expired terms. The
alternate, Pello Walker, had a term for one year which has also
expired. If Fred Schaefer's office were declared vacant, there
would be a total of five vacancies.
Sincerely yours,

OFFICE OF
COUNTY ADMINISTRATOR
i ABSENT: Barbara Alenza
The meeting was called to order by Chairman dally Wiggs at 7 :00 P.M.
Roll Call of Officers was made . No Treasury Report. Three items
were on the agenda for this meeting:
1 . A follow-up discussion on the annexation HB 2137 by some
i
residents of Pacheco.
2 . The oral resignation of Member Dan Tennille, and possible
expulsion of Fred Schaefer for absenteeism.
j 3. To finalize a letter to Sunne McPeak to stop the opening
of a hiking trail along the canal above Ada and Temple Drives.
There was nothing new on the progress of the petition being circu-
lated in some areas of Pacheco to annex to Pleasant Hill .
Fred Schaefer was advised about the seriousness of not .attendirg
PMAC meetings and possible repercussions . Chairman Wiggs asked
for a motion for expulsion. A motion was made and seconded to re-
move Schaefer, and was unanimously upheld.
Motion tQ send a letter to Sunne McPeak and the Board of Super-
visors stating our unanimous opposition to the Hiking Trail along
the canal . PMAC voted to ask Sunne McPeak to have Alternate Pello
Walker fill out the remainder of Schaefer' s term. Tennille ' s
term is up the end of November, so nothing will be done until then.
PMAC agrees that the County should make provisions to remove the
trash in the bins provided by the Town Council along Grayson
Creek and Aspen Way. The majority of the trash is picked up by
Pacheco residents . They feel it is only fair that the County
remove it , as the County is saving time and money by having some-
one else do their job.
PMAC was asked to work on expanding the town limits. especially
along Blum Road and Pacheco Blvd.
Meeting adjourned at 7 :40 p.m. without a motion being made.
