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.
