BACKGROUND: (CONT'D)

Between January 28, 2015 and January 31, 2015, a group of leaders from East Contra Costa attended the New Partners for Smart Growth Conference, which took place in Baltimore, MD. The conference provides professionals from a range of backgrounds information about best practices focusing on the intersection of public health, planning, transportation, and economic development. The Metropolitan Transportation Commission (MTC) sponsored seven leaders from East Contra Costa to attend the conference, and Contra Costa Health Services offered to pay expenses, according to Contra Costa County travel guidelines, for three additional individuals: Kristin Pollet, Planner, City of Pittsburg; Monica Wilson, City Council Member, City of Antioch, and Debra Mason, member of the Bay Point MAC.

Reimbursements in the total amount up to $3,802.70 should be distributed as follows:

City of Richmond	$632.10
Kristin Pollot	$764.17
Monica Wilson	$1,116.09
Debra Mason	$1,290.34

CONSEQUENCE OF NEGATIVE ACTION:

The reimbursement will not be made and the volunteers may no longer be willing to provide their expertise.
