RECOMMENDATION(S):

APPOINT Ara Gregorian to the Emergency Medical Care Committee (EMCC) B4 – California Highway Patrol seat, as recommended by the Health Services Director, with a term expiration date of September 30, 2018: California Highway Patrol Authorized Representative: Ara Gregorian, Martinez, CA 94553.

FISCAL IMPACT:

None.

BACKGROUND:

The EMCC is a multidisciplinary committee appointed by the County Board of Supervisors, to provide advice and recommendations on EMS-related matters to the Board, Health Services Director and its EMS Agency. Membership consists of consumer representatives, and representatives of EMS-related organizations and groups.

BACKGROUND: (CONT'D)

In September 2016, the EMCC two-year membership began a new term. The former B4 seat was vacant due to the California Highway Patrol (CHP) declining to nominate a candidate based on staffing. CHP nominated Brian Goldhammer in July 2017 who was appointed to the Committee in August 2017, but he resigned his seat in October 2017 because he was reassigned. CHP then nominated Ara Gregorian in December 2017.

CONSEQUENCE OF NEGATIVE ACTION:

If this appointment is not approved, the position will remain unfilled.
