4 . CONTINUE to refer to the Internal Operations Committee all
resignations from the Board of Fire Commissioners of all fire
protection districts in the County for such action as is
consistent with the above policy statement.
BACKGROUND:
The term of office of Marlene Brilz as a member of the Board of
Fire Commissioners of the Pinole Fire Protection District has
expired and she has indicated an interest in being reappointed.
However, the residents of the district just voted overwhelmingly to
be consolidated with any nearby district. With the significant
organizational issues currently before the Board of Supervisors, it
does not appear appropriate or necessary for the Board of
Supervisors to fill vacancies on the Boards of Fire Commissioners
of the districts noted in recommendation # 2 above, pending final
resolution of these organizational issues and the funding decisions
which are currently pending with the Legislature.
As a general rule, any member of a board, committee or commission
continues to serve unless his or her replacement is appointed.
Therefore, we are suggesting that the members of these Boards of
Fire Commissioners continue to serve past the expiration of their
terms while the Board of Supervisors is debating these issues and
until the funding issues are resolved in Sacramento. In the same
manner, we are suggesting that resignations not be replaced until
these issues are resolved. If there are specific problems, our
Committee is more than willing to consider specific situations
which are brought to our attention.

Dear Supervisor Smith,
It has come to my attention that the term of office for Fire
Commissioner Marlene Brilz,- of the Pinole Fire Protection District,
expired December 31, 1992 .
Mrs. Brilz would like to be reappointed, and the Board of Fire
Commissioners recommends her reappointment. The Commissioners feel
she has served the District and County quite well, and is an asset
to the Pinole Fire District.
On behalf of the Fire Commissioners of the Pinole Fire
Protection District, I am requesting the reappointment of Mrs.
Marlene Brilz as a Fire Commissioner of the Pinole Fire District.
If you should have any questions, or would like to discuss the
reappointment in any way, please contact me at your convenience.
Sincerely,
� I <
