Authorize the Homeless Advisory Committee to randomly select terms of one, two and three years at their first meeting in such a manner that 8 members terms expire March 1, 1991, 8 expire March 1, 1992 and 7 expire March 1, 1993 and report the terms to the Clerk of the Board of Supervisors. 3 . Request the County Administrator to send a letter to all applicants who were not appointed explaining the difficulty the Board of Supervisors faced in not being able to appoint all of the concerned and interested individuals and suggesting that these individuals remain involved in the issue of homelessness and that the Board of Supervisors would like to keep their applications on file for when vacancies occur in the future. 4. Request the Homeless Advisory Committee, as future vacancies occur, to attempt to achieve a better geographic balance than has been possible to date. 5. Remove this item as a referral to our Committee. BACKGROUND: In establishing the Homeless Advisory Committee on December 12 , 1989 , the Board of Supervisors requested the Community Homeless Action and Resources Team (CHART) to solicit applications from organizations included in specified membership categories and forward their recommendations and all such applications to our Committee for review and recommendation to the Board. CHART solicited applications and reviewed them carefully. Our Committee is recommending the above appointments. In accordance with Board policy, in addition to representation of the membership categories, nominees' economic status and geographical distribution were considered in making the nominations. One seat in the Cities category has no nomination at this time. We hope the Homeless Advisory Committee will be successful in recruiting an East County city nominee which we can recommend to the Board for appointment in the near future to fill the remaining seat on the Homeless Advisory Committee. There were many excellent applicants, any of whom CHART and our Committee feel would provide the highest level of advice and recommendations to the Board on homelessness issues. Finally, CHART and our Committee recommend that one, two and three year terms be determined by drawing lots at the initial meeting of the Homeless Advisory Committee.
