RECOMMENDATION(S):

CONSIDER appointing a member of the Board of Supervisors to the Metropolitan Transportation Commission with a term ending February 1, 2023.

FISCAL IMPACT:

No fiscal impact.

BACKGROUND:

At the Board’s reorganization meeting in January the Board approved the incoming Chair’s recommendations for Board member appointments to local, regional and statewide committees, boards and commissions. The committees, boards and commissions were shown as attachments to the Board Order, both alphabetically and by committee type. The Metropolitan Transportation Commission (MTC) was one of the listed regional commissions and Supervisor Federal Glover was appointed to the commission, with a term ending February 1, 2023.

BACKGROUND: (CONT'D)

Under Item D.5 on today's agenda, the Board was asked to consider rescinding the appointment of Supervisor Glover and revise its procedural rules with regard to the appointment of Board members to various boards, committees and commissions to allow for greater transparency in the process.

If the appointment to the MTC was rescinded as proposed in Item D.5, then there is a current vacancy on that governing board. It has been the Board’s practice to limit this appointment to members of the Board of Supervisors. This action requests that the Board of Supervisors consider making an appointment to the MTC to ensure representation of the County's interests with that agency.

CONSEQUENCE OF NEGATIVE ACTION:

The County representative seat on the MTC will remain vacant until the Board of Supervisors makes an appointment to the open seat.

CHILDREN'S IMPACT STATEMENT:

No impact.

CLERK'S ADDENDUM

Federal D. Glover was appointed to the Metropolitan Transportation Commission with a term ending February 1, 2023.
