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 Contra Costa County Fire Protection District Advisory Commission.

On June 30, 2018, the term for one Advisory Fire Commissioner will expire. The term of office for the vacant seat is July 1, 2018 - June 30, 2022.

The Contra Costa County Fire Protection District Advisory Fire Commission includes twelve (12) seats that are appointed by the Contra Costa County Board of Supervisors: Five (5) Supervisors District seats, each with an alternate, and two (2) At Large seats.

The Advisory Fire Commission's purpose is to review and advise on annual operations and capital budgets, review Fire District expenditures; advise the Fire Chief on district service matters; and serve as liaison between the Board of Supervisors and the community served by the fire district.

Referral Update:

At the direction of the Internal Operations Committee, staff initiated a five-week recruitment by issuing a press release (attached) on April 13th advertising the vacancies with an application deadline of May 18th. The recruitment garnered one application, attached, from incumbent Tom Chapman.

Recommendation(s)/Next Step(s):

RECOMMEND to the Board of Supervisors the reappointment of Richard "Tom" Chapman to the At Large #2 seat on the Contra Costa County Fire Protection District Advisory Commission to a four-year term beginning July 1, 2018 and ending June 30, 2022.
