CONCUR with the plans by the Internal Operations Committee to invite all current members of the Homeless Advisory Committee and all applicants for seats on the Committee to meet with the Internal Operations Committee on April 11, 1994 to discuss the role, responsibilities and plans of the Homeless Advisory Committee and to interview the applicants for appointment or reappointment to the Homeless Advisory Committee. BACKGROUND: The Homeless Advisory Committee consists of 24 members in several different categories, as is indicated on the attached pages from the "Maddy Book" . There are currently 15 vacancies, resulting from either resignations or expiration of terms . Mary Lou Laubscher, Chair of the Homeless Advisory Committee, and Mary McGovern, a member of the Homeless Advisory Committee, met with our Committee on March 14, 1994 and made several recommendations to fill some of the vacancies on the Committee. Attached is her written report. Since we are not necessarily familiar with all of the members or applicants for the seats on the Committee we are planning to meet with the entire Committee as well as all of the applicants in order to get better acquainted and have an opportunity to interview the applicants . We will plan to make further recommendations to the Board of Supervisors after those interviews . cc: County Administrator Richard Martinez, Executive Director Contra Costa County Housing Authority Perfecto Villarreal, Social Services Director Mary Lou Laubscher, Chair, Homeless Advisory Committee r CONTRA COSTA COUNTY HOMELESS ADVISORY COMMITTEE 3133 Estudillo Street Martinez, California 94553CONTRA COSTA COUNTY RECEIVED March 6, 1994 MIP 81994 Supervisors Sunne McPeak and Jeff Smith OFFICE OF Members of the Internal Operations Committee Contra Costs Board of Supervisors COUNTY ADMINISTRATOR County Administration Building 651 Pine Street, 11th Floor Martinez, California 94553-1229 Dear Sunne &Jeff, The Homeless Advisory Committee, at its March 2, 1994 meeting, voted to send to you the enclosed nominations for new or continued membership on this committee. We appreciate your effort on publicizing the need for membership, and the resultant applications that were forwarded to us. Our Membership Committee did call each applicant and invited them to come to our meetings. Two applicants we could not reach after many attempts to do so. Even with a good number of applicants, the applicants backgrounds did not meet all the special categories that needed to be filled. We present to you phase one of HAC recommendations for implementing.a full membership. We will come back to the Internal Operations Committee with further recommendations for the unfilled categories. Also included is the term for each recommendations--see attached list. The HA Membership Committee of Kent Stromsmoe, Mary McGovern and myself look forward to attending the I and O Committee meeting March 14, 1994 at 10:15 a.m. to discuss our recommendations.
