BACKGROUNDIREASON R RECOMMENDATION (c+ont'd):
Elections of kers
At the regularly scheduled Commission meeting on January 3, 2000 the Commission elected
Kathleen Tabor, representing District 3, as the Commission Chair and John Cullen, Director of the
County Employment and Human Services Department, as the Vice Chair.
Executive Director
On January 3, 2000 the Commission selected Brenda Blasingame as the Commission's Executive
Director after an extensive recruitment process. Ms. Blasingame is formerly the Homeless Program
Manager for the County. Ms. Blasingame brings to the Commission a background in strategic
planning and extensive experience managing public processes that require coordination among
diverse groups and interests. Ms. Blasingame will terminate her position with the County Health
Services Department and become a full time employee of the Commission on January 24, 2000.
Strategic Plan
The most urgent matter before the Commission is completion of a strategic plan. Completion of such
a plan is required by Proposition 10 as a prerequisite for spending State funds. The Commission is
currently reviewing applications for a strategic planning consultant who will work with the
Commission and the Executive Director to develop a strategic pian. The Commission intends to
complete its strategic pian by the end of May 2000.
The Commission has secured an $83,000 grant from a group of local foundations for participation in
an initiative called the Civic Engagement Project. The Civic Engagement Project will fund activities
to increase public participation in the implementation of Proposition 10. Civic Engagement activities
will be integrated with the Commission's strategic planning process.
The strategic planning process will include numerous opportunities for community involvement.
Beginning in February, the Commission intends to hold neighborhood meetings throughout the
county to engage community members and service providers and gain a better understanding of the
needs of young children and their families.
The Commission is also forming relationships with various advisory groups with an interest in the full
range of child development issues, including the Local Planning Council for Child Care and
Development (LPC), the Mental Health Advisory Board and the Public Environmental Health
Advisory Board (PEHAB).
A draft strategic plan will be released for public comment and the Commission will hold at least one
public hearing on the plan prior to adoption and submission of the plan to the State.
Fund Allocation
A trust fund has been established by the County Auditor/Controller for receipt of Proposition 10 funds
from the State. The current balance in the trust fund is $9.7 million.
Once the strategic planning process is completed, the next phase of the Commission's work will be
to allocate funds for early childhood development services. Criteria for allocating funds will be based
on the priorities set forth in the strategic plan.
Proposition 28
Proposition 28 on the March 2000 ballot is an initiative to repeal Proposition 10. At the next regular
Commission meeting on February 7, the Commission will consider a resolution declaring the
Commission's opposition to Proposition 28. A position for the Board of Supervisors can be
developed for a future agenda, if desired.
