Information

Referral History:

The Advisory Council for Equal Employment Opportunity (ACEEO) was established in July 1991 to serve as an advisory committee to the Board of Supervisors regarding the implementation of the County's Affirmative Action Plan, to review the Affirmative Action Program and to recommend actions to facilitate attainment of the County's goal for affirmative action. The Council is composed of 13 members and a Board committee reviews nominations to all seats except those designated for County managers and labor unions. Terms of office for seats reviewed by Board Committee are three years.

In 2013, Internal Operations Committee (IOC) reviewed Board Resolution Nos. 2011/497 and 2011/498, which stipulate that applicants for At Large/Non Agency-Specific seats on specified bodies are to be interviewed by a Board subcommittee. The Resolutions further permit a Board Committee to select a screening committee to assist in interviewing applicants for appointment for certain bodies, including the ACEEO.

Referral Update:

For many years, the IOC served as the reviewing committee for ACEEO nominations; however, the mission of the ACEEO is more consistent with the Board's Hiring Outreach and Oversight Committee, which is now designated as the reviewing committee for ACEEO nominations to the following seats:

Community 1, 2, 3, & 4
Education (vacant)
Business
Labor Involved in Training (vacant)
Veterans
Disabled
Union Seats 1 &2 (vacant)
Management Seats 1 & 2 (vacant)

The regular process for the above seats is that the Affirmative Action Officer would recruit for membership, the ACEEO or a subcommittee thereof would screen/interview applications or candidates, and then forward its nominations to the Hiring Outreach and Oversight Committee (formerly IOC) for consideration and possible recommendation to the BOS.

Recommendation(s)/Next Step(s):

ACCEPT AND APPROVE the nomination of Dr. Michelle Hernandez for Community Seat #4 with the term expiring on November 30, 2021 as recommended by the Advisory Council on EEO.

ACCEPT AND APPROVE the resignation of Dr. Aaron Bryant who served on the Advisory Council on EEO in the Community Member Seat #2. The term ends on November 30, 2020.

DIRECT staff to forward the nomination and resignation to the Board of Supervisors for final approval.

Fiscal Impact (if any):

None
