BACKGROUND:

Contra Costa Resource Conservation District (RCD) director recruitment is conducted by the Internal Operations Committee, on behalf of the Board of Supervisors, pursuant to a 1998 RCD resolution ordering that all future directors shall be appointed by the County Board of Supervisors in lieu of election (Public Resources Code Section 9314). The mission of the RCD is to carry out natural resources conservation projects through voluntary and cooperative efforts. The RCD is a non-regulatory agency that works with individuals, growers, ranchers, public agencies, non-profit organizations and corporations to accomplish its mission. The USDA Natural Resource Conservation Service provides technical support for the RCD's programs.

BACKGROUND: (CONT'D)

The County received notification that Bob Case, Director 3 on the Contra Costa Resource Conservation District Board of Directors, has decided to resign his seat, creating a vacancy on the board. Therefore, it is appropriate for the Board of Supervisors to declare and post notice of the vacancy and recruit for a replacement director.
