FROM: Supervisor Nancy Fanden Costa
June 19, 1990 `-"""' "y
DATE:
REPORT ON MANDATED & NONMANDATED BOARDS, COMMISSIONS
SUBJECT: AND COMMITTEES
SPECIFIC REQUEST(S) OR RECOMMENDATION(S) & BACKGROUND AND JUSTIFICATION
RECOMMENDATION:
That the County Administrator prepare a report on all the
mandated & nonmandated Boards, Commissions and Committees
established by the County Board of Supervisors.
That this report be made available to the Board prior to the
public hearings on the budget.
That the report include the following information:
0 Date established 0 How much staff time &
0 Budget costs applicable salary is involved
0 Is it mandated
0 How many members 0 Reimbursements
0 Total cost figure for each Board, Commission & Committee
0 Grand total cost figure for mandated and nonmandated
Boards, Commissions & Committees.
BACKGROUND:
On May 25, 1990, the Contra Costa County Grand Jury released
its report on County and City Government Finances. The
Summary page reflects my own growing concern regarding the
County' s dwindling financial resources, and the need to
address mandated and nonmandated services. To quote the
report:
"The incorporated cities in Contra Costa County generally
have sufficient income to provide their traditional
services. In contrast, the County government does not have
the revenue to provide all of its mandated and optional
services at an adequate level. "
The County currently has 100 Boards, Commissions and
Committees. Based on the Grand Jury report, and growing
costs for services, it would be fiscally irresponsible for
the Board not to review the amount of time, energy and money
spent on mandated and nonmandated programs.
