The board, and any county officer or agency as directed by the board, shall provide such facilities of any kind at the temporary county seat as appear desirable for the functioning of the government of the county at the temporary county seat in the event that it becomes necessary, pursuant to this section.

The County Administrator has been in consultation with the Contra Costa Community College District and Alameda County with regard to serving as alternative temporary county seats for Contra Costa County, and these agencies have agreed to provide meeting facilities at Diablo Valley College in Pleasant Hill and at the Alameda County Emergency Operations Center in Dublin. The attached resolution conforms to Government Code section 23600 requirements and, upon Board approval, shall be filed with those agencies.
