AUTHORIZE the appointing entities to name their representatives to the Juvenile Systems Planning Advisory Committee and to remove and replace their representatives without further action by the Board of Supervisors. 6. REQUEST the Juvenile Systems Planning Advisory Committee to provide a further status report to the Family and Human Services Committee on April 22, 1996, covering their activities since their last report to the 1995 Family and Human Services Committee on December 5, 1995. BACKGROUND: The Juvenile Systems Planning Advisory Committee, previously the Juvenile Hall Replacement Advisory Committee started out as a rather unstructured group concerned about the need to plan for and fund a replacement juvenile hall and later to plan a whole continuum of services for delinquent youth. The Board of Supervisors has not generally made appointments of specific individuals to the Juvenile Systems Planning Advisory Committee (JSPAC). Instead, the Board dictated the size and composition of the Committee and left it to the various nominating entities to name their specific individuals. The Committee is not considered a "Maddy Book" Committee and the size and composition has changed over the period of time since the Committee was formed in 1992 as the Juvenile Hall Replacement Advisory Committee and was renamed JSPAC in January, 1994. We have compared the composition of the Committee as it was fixed by the Board in 1994 and as the Committee wishes it to be now and have formulated the above recommendations in order to adjust the membership so it fits the membership which is interested and participating in the work of the Committee currently. -2- }., Contra _ - Costa TO: FAMILY AND HUMAN SERVICES COMMITTEE �' z Supervisor Mark DeSaulnier County Supervisor Jeff Smith FROM: PHIL BATCHELOR County Administrator DATE: March 25, 1996 SUBJECT: APPOINTMENTS TO JUVENILE SYSTEMS PLANNING ADVISORY COMMITTEE Specific Request(s) or Recommendation(s) & Background & Justification RECOMMENDATIONS : 1 .
