Information

Referral History:

On December 12, 2000, the Board of Supervisors approved a policy on the process for recruiting applicants for selected advisory bodies of the Board. This policy requires an open recruitment for all vacancies to At Large seats appointed by the Board. The Board also directed that the IOC personally conduct interviews of applicants for At Large seats on several boards, committees, and commissions including the Airport Land Use Commission.

Referral Update:

The Board of Supervisors created the Airport Land Use Commission (ALUC) in 1970 to promote the orderly development of compatible land uses around each public airport in the County, in order to safeguard both the interests of the general public and the welfare of inhabitants in the areas surrounding the airports. The California Public Utilities Code requires and specifies the composition of the ALUC, whose membership shall include:

(1) Two representing the cities in the county, appointed by a city selection committee comprised of the mayors of all the cities within that county, except that if there are any cities contiguous or adjacent to the qualifying airport, at least one representative shall be appointed therefrom.
(2) Two representing the county, appointed by the board of supervisors.
(3) Two having expertise in aviation, appointed by a selection committee comprised of the managers of all of the public airports within that county.
(4) One representing the general public, appointed by the other six members of the commission.

Seat terms are four years, expiring the first Monday in May. The term of the Appointee #1 seat occupied by Tom Weber will expire on May 4, 2020.

The Internal Operations Committee has historically conducted, at the Board of Supervisors direction, interviews for the two County seats described in item 2, above, and has made recommendations to the Board for appointment.

On August 1, 2017, the IOC transferred responsibility for screening candidates for At Large seats on the Aviation Advisory Committee to the Airports Committee, which has direct oversight of airport issues within the county. Today's recommendation is consistent with the 2017 action of the IOC.

Recommendation(s)/Next Step(s):

CONSENT to transfer to the Airports Committee the Board referral of screening and recommending candidates for appointment to the Airport Land Use Commission.
