TO: BOARD OF SUPERVISORS Contra
s.
FROM: PHIL BATCHELOR, COUNTY ADMINISTRATOR Costa
County
DATE: May 28, 1996
coax
SUBJECT: REFERRAL TO THE INTERNAL OPERATIONS COMMITTEE
SPECIFIC REQUEST(S)OR RECOMMENDATION(S)&BACKGROUND AND JUSTIFICATION
RECOMMENDATION:
REFER to the Internal Operations Committee oversight of the County's progress
toward achieving the Minority Business Enterprise and Women's Business
Enterprise (MBE/ BE) goals.
BACKGROUND:
In discussing whether to award a Public Works contract to one firm or another, the
Board members expressed their concern that they are too often being asked to judge
whether a firm has made a "good faith effort" to achieve the County's MBE/WBE
goals, rather than being able to award a contract to a firm that has actually met the
County's goals. Even if a firm does make a "good faith effort", doing so does not
provide additional work to minority or women-owned businesses.
Since this specific issue was not on the agenda for action, the Board of Supervisors
indicated that it wished to make this referral to the Internal Operations Committee,
but asked that this matter be listed on the agenda again so that it could be properly
noticed before the referral was made.
