BACKGROUND:

In 2013, the IOC delegated the recruitment for Hazardous Materials Commission at large seats to the Commission or a subcommittee thereof, pursuant to Board Resolution Nos. 2011/497 and 2011/498.

The Hazardous Materials Commission was established in 1986 to advise the Board, County staff and the mayor’s council members, and staffs of the cities within the County, on issues related to the development, approval and administration of the County Hazardous Waste Management Plan. Specifically, the Board charged the Commission with drafting a hazardous materials storage and transportation plan and ordinance, coordinating the implementation of the hazardous materials release response plan and inventory program, and analyzing and developing recommendations regarding hazardous materials issues with consideration to broad public input.

The bylaws of the Commission provide that the Business #2 seat be nominated by the Industrial Association and appointed by the Board of Supervisors. The term for Business #2 seat expired on December 31, 2013. The Industrial Association requested that the Board of Supervisors appoint the current Business #2 Alternate member, Matt Buell, to fill the Business #2 seat vacancy. Matt Buell was appointed to the Business #2 Alternate seat on July 16, 2013. The term for the current Business #2 seat will expire on December, 31, 2017.

The IOC reviewed and approved this request at a special meeting on March 17.
