Each year, the Board of Directors adopts a meeting schedule that designates regular meeting dates and any dates on which meetings must be canceled in anticipation that a quorum of the Board will not be present. In order to provide for at least one monthly meeting, the schedule works around those Tuesdays that fall during a week with a District holiday, the fifth Tuesday of a month, and Tuesdays that fall during those weeks in February, May, July, and November in which the annual policy and legislative meetings of the National Association of Counties (NACo) and the California State of Counties (CSAC) are attended by one or more of our Directors.
The 2017 meeting schedule provides 12 meetings for the Contra Costa County Fire Protection District Board of Directors. There are legal provisions to schedule a special meeting to address any urgent need that cannot be accommodated in the standing meeting schedule.
The 2017 meeting schedule has been prepared in consultation with the incoming Board Chair, the County Administrator, and the Fire Chief, and is recommended for the Board's adoption. The County Board of Supervisors has already adopted its meeting schedule.
