RECOMMENDATION(S):

REAPPOINT Marjorie McWee to the County Representative seat on the County Connection Advisory Committee to a new term that will expire on June 30, 2023.

BACKGROUND:

County Connection was formed in 1980 as a Joint Powers Agency under the legal name The Central Contra Costa Transit Authority. Today County Connection provides fixed-route and paratransit bus service throughout the communities of Central Contra Costa County. The County Connection Advisory Committee meets bi-monthly to review, analyze, and advise the County Connection Board of Directors on issues and policies relating to fixed-route and paratransit bus service. Committee members also act as a citizen liaison from the represented jurisdictions.

BACKGROUND: (CONT'D)

Prior to 2019, the County Representative seat on the County Connection Advisory Committee had been vacant for many years. In 2019, the Board of Supervisors appointed, at the recommendation of the IOC, Marjorie McWee to the County seat.

The current term of the County Representative appointee on the County Connection Advisory Committee will expire on June 30. Staff conducted a four week recruitment and received one application, from incumbent Marjorie McWee.
