Our Committee did so and received a total of 24 applications . We actually interviewed 18 individuals on April 12, 1993 . This was a singularly outstanding, well qualified, dedicated and knowledgeable group of individuals who are committed to the importance of our regional park system. We have recommended the reappointment of Chuck Lewis, who has served as one of the Board's appointees since 1989 . We have also recommended the appointment of Mary Ann Gaebe to fill the other seat. Because we were so impressed with the caliber of the applicants for these two seats, we have forwarded copies of all of .the applications to each member of the Board of Supervisors . We would really encourage each member of the Board to consider any of these individuals for appointment to any advisory boards dealing with the environment or to using these individuals as an environmental sounding board within your own district. We are also asking that the Chairman be authorized to send a letter to the East Bay Regional Park District, recommending the appointment of any of these individuals to advisory groups within the Park District. -2- The Board of Supervisors Contra Cerrk)oftthehBoard and County Administration BuildingCOSta County Administrator 651 Pine St., Room 106 (510)646-2371 Martinez, California 94553 County Tom Powers.1st District Jeff Smith,2nd District 5E L Gayle Bishop•3rd District °f• Sunne Wright McPeak 4th District ` +j��•• Tom Toriakson,5th District .
