RECOMMENDATION(S):

REAPPOINT the following person to the Trustee 3 Seat of the Alamo-Lafayette Cemetery District Board of Directors for a four-year term with an expiration date of December 11, 2016:


Carolyn Thiessen

100 Los Balcones

Alamo, CA 94507

FISCAL IMPACT:

None.

BACKGROUND:

Established by the Board of Supervisors on April 5, 1937, the purpose of the Alamo-Lafayette Cemetery District Board of Directors is to establish rates to be charged for burials within the cemeteries of the district which will allow the grave to be maintained on a self-supporting basis; to prepare and maintain maps detailing information about the lots; to keep records of all remains interred in the cemeteries. (Health and Safety Code, Section 8961.4 and 8963).

Membership is comprised of three trustees who must live in the district. Terms are for four years from the date of appointment. Due to redistricting, all three Trustee Seats fall within District Two, therefore the District Two Supervisor is responsible for the recruitment and recommendations for appointment to the Board of Supervisors for all three seats.

Ms. Thiessen has done an excellent job in her role as a Trustee. Supervisor Andersen met with her and would like to reappoint her for another term.

CONSEQUENCE OF NEGATIVE ACTION:

There will be one vacant seat on the Alamo-Lafayette Cemetery District.

CHILDREN'S IMPACT STATEMENT:

None.
