The Fish & Wildlife Committee was established by the Board in December 1994 to advise the Board on fish and wildlife issues, make recommendations for the expenditure of funds from the Fish and Wildlife Propagation Fund, and to address issues surrounding the enforcement of fish and game laws and regulations of the County. The Committee comprises ten members: one nominated by each County Supervisor, four At Large seats, and one At Large Alternate seat. The Internal Operations Committee historically reviewed nominations for the four At Large seats and the At Large Alternate seat.
On December 13, 2011, the Board of Supervisors adopted Resolution No. 2011/498, which expanded the interview responsibilities of the Internal Operations Committee to include all At Large seats on the Fish and Wildlife Committee. On February 27, 2012, the Internal Operations Committee conducted interviews for ten applicants and is forwarding nominations for appointment to the Board of Supervisors in this action. Seat terms are for two years.
The At-Large seats on the Fish and Wildlife Committee will remain vacant.
