SUBJECT: REQUEST FROM DELTA 2000 THAT THEY BE AUTHORIZED TO ASSIST IN
RECRUITING APPLICANTS FOR BOARD, COMMITTEES AND COMMISSIONS
SPECIFIC REQUEST(S)OR RECOMMENDATION(S)&BACKGROUND AND JUSTIFICATION
RECOMMENDATION:
REFER to the Internal Operations Committee a request from Delta
2000 that they be officially authorized to assist the Board of
Supervisors in recruiting applicants for various advisory boards,
committees and commissions, with an emphasis on recruiting women,
minorities and residents of East County.
BACKGROUND:
In a recent meeting with Ruth Goodin, Executive Director of Delta
2000, the community organizing arm of the United Way in East
County, it was noted that Delta 2000 is interested in trying to
assist the Board of Supervisors in a constructive, positive manner
to recruit more women, minorities and residents of East County for
various advisory boards, committees and commissions .
A subcommittee of Delta 2000 is presently considering how to
approach this task in terms of recruiting individuals who have
various interests, talents, background and experience to serve on
the many 'advisory boards, committees and commissions to which the
Board of Supervisors makes appointments . This would .presumably
also include some type of mechanism for keeping track of
individuals with various interests so that when a vacancy opens up,
Delta 2000 would be able to quickly identify one or more
individuals interested in applying for the vacancy. Since the
Internal Operations Committee and Board of Supervisors have often
faced some difficulty in recruiting women, minorities and residents
of East County for these seats, the interest of Delta 2000 appears
to be an offer which should be seriously considered by the Board of
Supervisors.

Ms . Goodin indicated that her organization will be prepared by late
June to make a report to the appropriate body in the County.
Because the Internal Operations Committee is responsible for
soliciting applicants for, interviewing and recommending
appointments to many of these advisory boards, committees and
commissions, it appears that it would be the appropriate place to
refer this offer of assistance. It is, therefore, recommended that
the Board of Supervisors refer the offer of Delta 2000 to the
Internal Operations Committee for further consideration.
