To BOARD OF SUPERVISORS
FROM: Phil Batchelor Contra
County Administrator Costa
DATE: April 30, 1987 County
SUBJECT:
Legislation: Assembly Bill 1328 (Eastin)
SPECIFIC REQUEST(S) OR RECOMMENDATION(S) & BACKGROUND AND JUSTIFICATION
RECOMMENDATION•
Adopt a position in support of AB 1328 by Assemblywoman Eastin
which would authorize a local Remote Access Network (RAN)
advisory board to appoint alternates to serve on the local RAN
Board in place of a local RAN board member who is absent, or who
disqualifies himself or herself from participation in a meeting
of the local RAN board.
BACKGROUND:
Current State law which establishes the California Identification
System or CAL-ID also provides for a Remote Access Network (RAN)
which is a uniform statewide network of equipment and procedures
allowing local law enforcement agencies direct access to CAL-ID.
Current law also provides for a statewide RAN Advisory Committee
and local RAN boards in each county, or group of counties,
eligible to receive funding under the CAL-ID program. The local
RAN board is charged to determine the placement of RAN equipment
within the county and to develop procedures to regulate the use
and maintenance of that equipment. In a local region consisting
of more. than one county ( such as the region which includes
Alameda and Contra Costa County) , the RAN board consists of seven
members, as specified.
Current law does not specifically authorize the formation of an
Advisory RAN board within a county which is part of a region. At
the request of Alameda County, Assemblywoman Eastin has
introduced AB 1328 .
AB 1328 does all of the following:
1 . It authorizes a county which is a part of a regional
board to form a local RAN Advisory Board. The local
RAN Advisory Board is intended to provide advice and
recommendations to the County' s representatives on the
local RAN board.

2. It authorizes the local RAN Advisory Board to appoint
alternate members to the local RAN board from the local
RAN Advisory Board to serve and work in the place of a
local RAN board member who is absent or who
disqualifies himself or herself from participation in a
meeting of the local RAN board.
3 . It authorizes an alternate member selected by the local
RAN Advisory Board to serve and vote in place of a RAN
board member where a vacancy occurs until the
appointment of a local RAN board member is made to fill
the vacancy.
Passage of AB 1328 will resolve the uncertain legal status of our
County Advisory RAN Board and insure that the regional RAN board
is always able to function with the use of an alternate in case
of the absence of a member or the existence of a vacancy.
Alameda County has asked for Contra Costa County' s support of AB
1328. our office concurs that passage of AB 1328 would be
helpful to the implementation of the CAL-ID program in this
County.
