Following are the origin and authorization for the current stipends: County Housing Authority CA Health and Safety Code section 35274 County Redevelopment Agency RDA Resolution No. 84-15 County Flood Control and Water Code Appendix, Chapter 63 Water Conservation District On February 13, 2007, the Board of Supervisors received an informational report from the County Administrator citing the authority and origin for the stipends, and directed staff to prepare resolutions to terminate the stipends for the County Supervisors that serve on the governing boards of each agency. Since some of the authorizing legislation that provides the stipends and expense reimbursement is directive rather than permissive, Supervisors can decide on an individual basis whether or not to submit expense reimbursement claims. For example the stipends for the Housing Authority and the Redevelopment Agency may be terminated by resolution, but the stipend for the Flood Control and Water Conservation District may only be waived by the individual governing board member. Likewise, reimbursement of other actual and necessary expenses incurred in the discharge of governing board duties may only be waived by the individual governing board member. THE REDEVELOPMENT AGENCY OF CONTRA COSTA COUNTY, CALIFORNIA Adopted this Resolution on March 6, 2007 by the following vote: sEL AYES: � (�(jlcic�� Gz '�y D/�-:�v �i� �G�tC�' •; � :o , NOES: ABSENT: rA,COUIi'� ABSTAIN: SUBJECT: COMPENSATION OF BOARD OF DIRECTORS Resolution No. 2007/105 WHEREAS, on December 19, 2006, the Contra Costa County Board of Supervisors, which also serves as the governing board of the Contra Costa County Redevelopment Agency (Agency) adopted County Ordinance No. 2006-70, which increased the base monthly salary for each supervisor to the mean of the governing board member salaries of the nine Bay Area counties; and WHEREAS, the Board acknowledges that meetings of the Agency are generally scheduled to coincide and be coordinated with meetings of the County Board of Supervisors, which duties are fully compensated; NOW, THEREFORE, THE BOARD OF DIRECTORS OF THE CONTRA COSTA COUNTY REDEVELOPMENT AGENCY RESOLVES THAT effective April 1, 2007, the $30 meeting stipend paid to legislative body members is terminated, and that Directors who do not submit claims for reimbursement of actual and necessary expenses incurred in the discharge of Redevelopment Agency Governing Board duties as authorized by section 33114.5 of the Health and Safety Code shall be deemed to have waived such reimbursement.
