Information

Referral History:

In June 2014, the 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. Upon review of the eligible seats, the IOC made a determination that it would conduct interviews for At Large seats on the following bodies: Retirement Board, Fire Advisory Commission, Integrated Pest Management Advisory Committee, Planning Commission, Treasury Oversight Committee, Airport Land Use Commission, and the Fish & Wildlife Committee; and that screening and nomination fill At Large seats on all other eligible bodies would be delegated each body or a subcommittee thereof.

Referral Update:

The Integrated Pest Management (IPM) Advisory Committee was established by the Board of Supervisors in November 2009 to advise the Board regarding the protection and enhancement of public health, County resources, and the environment related to pest control methods employed by County departments. The IPM Committee has eight voting members as follows: two ex-officio members (Health Services Department and County/Unincorporated County Storm Water Program) and six public members (one County Sustainability Commission representative, one County Fish and Wildlife Committee representative, one Environmental Organizations representative, and three At Large appointees); plus one Public Member Alternate seat. Effective January 1, 2019, terms of office for the At Large and Alternate seats reviewed by the Internal Operations Committee were extended from two to four years at the direction of the IOC.

The Public Member #1 and 2 seats will become vacant on December 31, 2019. The Environmental Organization seat is also currently vacant but that seat is not screened by the IOC.

Attached is a letter from the IPM Committee transmitting the two applications received from the recruitment for the vacancies, and describing the recruitment process, and the current Committee roster.
