5. DIRECT the Committee to provide public notice of its meetings, REQUIRE
that all meetings of the Committee be open to the public, REQUIRE that
agendas of all meetings be posted 96 hours in advance of the meeting, and
REQUIRE the Committee to comply with all applicable provisions of the Ralph

BACKGROUND:
The recently approved Franchise Agreement for solid waste collection in Crockett,
Port Costa and Tormey requires the establishment of an Interim Crockett Area
Interim Solid Waste and Recycling Committee as a five member Committee and
provides the Crockett-Valona Sanitary District with the right to nominate two of the
members of the Committee. The Franchise Agreement also defines the role of the
Committee.
Staff is, therefore, recommending that the Committee be established as outlined
above to be consistent with the terms of the Franchise Agreement and the Board's
existing policies relating to advisory boards, committees and commissions.
