FISCAL IMPACT:

None

BACKGROUND:

The Contra Costa County Board of Supervisors established the First 5 Contra Costa Children and Families Commission on June 15, 1999 (Ordinance 99-15). The Board appointed nine Commission members and nine Alternate members on September 1, 1999.

BACKGROUND: (CONT'D)

Members include one Supervisor from the County Board of Supervisors, the directors of the County departments of Health Services and Employment and Human Services, and a representative from the County Administrator’s Office of Children’s Services. The other five members of the Commission are appointed by the Board of Supervisors and represent each Supervisorial District.

Commissioners and Alternate Commission members represent various disciplines and backgrounds including pediatrics, early childhood education, child welfare, and schools. Alternate members, including second representatives from the Board of Supervisors, the county agencies mentioned above, and the five districts, hold all the powers of the appointed Commissioners except voting privileges.

The prior incumbent of the County Administrator Children's Service has left county service. Ms. Miller, who previously held the Alternate seat, will now occupy the Commissioner's seat.
