REVIEW the Draft 2018 State Legislative Platform, provide direction to staff on any recommended changes, and RECOMMEND action to the Board of Supervisors.
|
| |
Auditor-Controller Bob Campbell informed the Committee that the bill related to the West Contra Costa Health Care District could have an effect on the County's Comprehensive Annual Financial Report (CAFR) in terms of reporting the financial impact.
Mariana Moore spoke in support of the Health Policies but expressed concerns about policy #249. She also expressed an interest in extending the community conversation to make the Platform development process more inclusive. She also expressed an interest in having the County have a conversation about the prioritization of our resources.
Vice Chair Mitchoff expressed concerns about including some federal policy related matters in the draft State Platform and asked staff to follow-up on those items to determine if they were more appropriately included in the Federal Platform. She also expressed an interest in having consistent language used throughout the Platforms with regard to the proposed policies in terms of supporting or opposing "efforts" or "legislation and administrative actions." A request was also made of staff to include policies related to wireless/small cell infrastructure.
The Committee voted unanimously to recommend that the Board of Supervisors adopt the 2018 State Platform, with the recommended changes. |
