4. IMMEDIATELY SUSPEND activity of the Better Government Task Force, and ABOLISH,
effective March 30, 2005, the Economic Development and Industry Ad Hoc Committee, the
Afterschool4All Ad Hoc Committee, and the Open Space Ad Hoc Committee, and REQUEST
those committees to make a final report to the Board of Supervisors no later than April 5, 2005.
5. RESOLVE that Board Members as named are APPOINTED to serve on Board committees,
special county committees and regional boards/ committees/commissions as specified on
Attachment I for Internal Committees, on Attachment II for Regional Committees, Attachment
III for Special Restriction Committees, and Attachment IV for Ad Hoc Committees.
BACKGROUND
Each year when the Board of Supervisors reorganizes, the incoming Chair reviews and makes
recommendations to the Board on committee assignments. The annual review of committee
assignments is governed by a policy(attached) adopted by the Board in March 2000.
Transmitted herein are my recommendations for committee assignments for 2005. My
recommendations seek to balance the workload of the Supervisors as well as to consider some of
the outstanding responsibilities and appointments of the Supervisors on regional bodies.
In the past several years, the Chair of the Board has not served on a standing committee, e.g.,
Finance; Internal Operations; Transportation, Water, and Infrastructure; and Family and Human
Services committees. This year, I suggest that a change be made and recommend that I continue to
serve as Chair of the Internal Operations Committee(IOC). 'Maintaining the current membership on
that committee will facilitate recommendations on many very complex policy issues currently on
referral to the IOC.
You will note that I have recommended that Supervisor Gioia remain as Chair of the Finance
Committee and that he serve on only one standing committee. In view of the fiscal challenges that
face the Board of Supervisors and the Retirement Board this year, Supervisor Gioia has a critical
role as the Board's representative to the Retirement Board. I am suggesting that, in 2005, we deviate
from our recent practices in order to facilitate the heavy workload demands of the Retirement Board
representation. For purposes of this year's work assignments, I consider the Retirement Board
appointment as equivalent to a standing committee assignment.
In a further effort to balance workload and, additionally, to conserve staff resources, I am
recommending the suspension or elimination of the following committees:
■ Better Government Task Force—The mission of the Task Force is to advise the Board of
Supervisors and provide information to county departments on appropriate ways to implement in a
timely and practical way the Better Government Ordinance, which pertains to the conduct of open
meetings and the availability of public records. The Task Force was also charged with
recommending to the Board of Supervisors an administrative process of review and enforcement
for the County's Better Government Ordinance.
Board Committee Appointments December 28,2004
Supervisor Gayle B.Uilkema Page 3
Despite outreach for members to serve on the Task Force for several years, a quorum of the
membership was never achieved. In the absence of a Task Force, the primary goals of the Task
Force have been achieved administratively through the publication of a handbook for Board
advisory bodies and staff,through annual training on the Brown Act and conflict of interest laws,
and on annual reporting requirements for Board advisory bodies. For these reasons, I recommend
that the Task Force be suspended indefinitely or until such time as the aforementioned
administrative policies and practices are perceived to not be effective.
■ Economic Development and Industry Ad Hoc Committee—This committee was established to
explore ways to increase economic development and industry throughout the County and to
create jobs within the County and reduce commuter traffic. During 2004, the committee
organized a manufacturers' summit at which a panel of experts discussed economic
development issues, and held collaborative meetings with some of the cities. As it is my
understanding that this committee has finished its work, I recommend that it be terminated and
related issues henceforth be referred to the Finance or Internal Operations committees, as
appropriate.
■ Afterschool4AII Ad Hoc Committee--Afterschool4AII is a County-run pilot project designed to
improve afterschool care for underserved children. The project is a shared venture of the County,
schools, and community care providers. The mission of the Ad Hoc Committee is to develop and
provide policy guidance for County-sponsored academic, enrichment, youth development and
family literacy support, as well as safe, constructive alternatives for(elementary, middle and high)
school students during after-school hours. As the Afterschool4AII Program is established and
functioning, I recommend that the Ad Hoc Committee be terminated and that related issues be
referred by the Board of Supervisors to the Family and Human Services Committee, as needed.
■ Open Space Ad Hoc Committee—The purpose of the Open Space Ad Hoc Committee is to explore
opportunities for developing additional funds to acquire, conserve, restore, and operate land for
park and open space purposes and to make recommendations to the Board of Supervisors on open
space. Originally formed to assist with developing the Open Space Funding Measure presented to
property owners during the summer of 2004, the Board of Supervisors has declared its intent to
reconfigure the Ad Hoc Committee in early 2005 to be a joint committee of the Board of
Supervisors and the East Bay Regional Park District(EBRPD). This action would be linked to the
dissolution of the Contra Costa County Open Space Funding Authority.
Consistent with the Board's intent to reorganize the Ad Hoc Committee to a joint committee with
the EBRPD, I am recommending that the two Supervisors that currently serve on the Ad Hoc
Committee be appointed to the represent the Board of Supervisors on the Open Space/Parks &
EBRPD Liaison Committee, to which open space issues can already be referred, and that the
Board's Open Space Ad Hoc Committee be abolished.

FROM: Gayle B. Uilkema
RE: Streamlining the Board of Supervisors' Meetings
In view of the complexity of some of the issues we will be addressing this year, it
is important that we maximize the time available for discussions, public
testimony, deliberations and decision-making. In order to use our time in the
most productive way, possible, I suggest the following guidelines.
Meetings will convene at 9 am. As soon as a quorum is present, I will begin and
we will adjourn to closed session, if scheduled. If you are late, the Board will be
meeting in Room 145 with legal counsel. Please make every effort to be in the
Chambers at 9 am or a few minutes beforehand. As you know, many people
take time off work to express their views on subjects that are under consideration
by the Board and it is important to adhere to our published agenda times to
accommodate the public interest.
Only three "Presentations" per meeting will be scheduled for a total time
allocation of 15 minutes. If you have a resolution and the Presentations are
already booked, the item will be on the Consent Calendar for individual
supervisors to present elsewhere. If you prefer, your presentation will be added
to the following meeting agenda. If we adhere to the "5-minute limit" for
presentation, only the Sponsor should be the primary speaker.
Presentation items should relate to items of county-wide interest. District
presentations should be at District events,
As we are all aware, some Commissions schedule their awards ceremonies
during Board of Supervisors' meetings. In an effort to publicize the work of their
Commission, the use of CCTV is a way to broaden awareness of their efforts.

MORAGA • ORINGA PINOLM a PCRTCGSTA - RODEO SARI-NAP TARAHILLS TORMEY WALNUT GREEK'UN'NC.1,
While there is merit in the intent, I suggest that such ceremonies should be
scheduled in the afternoon after the Board of Supervisors business meeting
concludes, such as 2 or 3 p.m. in the afternoon. Supervisors could be invited to
the ceremonies and, if schedules permit, could participate in the honors. We will
need to be mindful of such events in order to allow commission ceremonies to
begin on time in our chambers. In the event of a conflict, Commissions could use
Room 108 for their presentations and the Supervisors could join the event upon
completion of our business meeting.
I plan to try these guidelines and assess the effectiveness of these suggestions.
As guidelines, these suggestions require the cooperation of all Supervisors and
will also act as a template for agenda preparation and scheduling. I welcome
any other suggestions that you may have.
I hope your holiday season is joyous for you, your family and loved ones. I look
forward to the challenges of the New Year and am confident that we will do our
best to have a successful 2005.
