RECOMMENDATION(S):

ACCEPT the resignations of Liliana Gonzalez and Tracy Ward, DECLARE a vacancy in the At-Large #4 and #9 seats on the Contra Costa Commission for Women, and DIRECT the Clerk of the Board to post the vacancies.

FISCAL IMPACT:

There is no fiscal impact.

BACKGROUND:

The Contra Costa Commission for Women (CCCW) was formed to educate the community and advise the Contra Costa County Board of Supervisors and other entities on the issues relating to the changing social and economic conditions of women in the County, with particular emphasis on the economically disadvantaged.

BACKGROUND: (CONT'D)

The Commission consists of 20 members and one alternate, including: five district representatives, 15 At-Large members, and one At-Large alternate. CCCW terms are for three years and they are staggered across the membership.

Ms. Gonzalez has notified the Commission and the County Administrator's Office of her resignation. Upon reviewing Ms. Ward's attendance record and in accordance with the Commission's current bylaws, the Membership Review Committee has made the recommendation to remove Ms. Ward from her current position of At-Large Seat #4. The Commission has attempted to contact Ms. Ward on several occasions and were unsuccessful in receiving a response. These resignations will leave vacant the At-Large Seat #4 which expires on February 28, 2020 and the At-Large Seat #9 which expires on February 28, 2019.

CONSEQUENCE OF NEGATIVE ACTION:

The resignations will not be posted and the seats will not be properly posted.
