RECOMMENDATION(S):

APPOINT Nicole Armstrong to the member At-Large 2 Seat on the Alcohol and Other Drugs Advisory Board for a term ending June 30, 2024.

FISCAL IMPACT:

There is no fiscal impact for this action.

BACKGROUND:

The Alcohol and Other Drugs Advisory Board’s mission is to identify needs in the community with regards to substance use prevention or treatment. The findings and recommendations are provided to the Board of Supervisors, the Health Services Department, Behavioral Health Division and the Alcohol and Other Drugs Services (AODS) administration. The Board is comprised by five supervisorial district seats, six At- Large Member Seats and three At- Large Alternate Seats. Nicole Armstrong would like to be appointed to the Member At-Large 2 Seat for a term ending June 30, 2026.

CONSEQUENCE OF NEGATIVE ACTION:

The seat will remain unfilled, and this will potentially make it more difficult to achieve a quorum and will potentially lessen the viewpoint of communities impacted by substance use issues in the community.
