Each year, the Public Protection Committee (PPC) reviews the membership of the Community Corrections Partnership (CCP) and makes recommendations for appointment to non ex-officio seats to the Board of Supervisors. At the March 22, 2021 PPC meeting, the Board was asked to recommend appointments for the 2021 CCP, which included Patrice Guillory as the CBO Representative. However, at the same meeting it was announced by the Chief Probation Officer that Ms. Guillory had accepted the staff position of Director of the Office of Reentry and Justice effective May 1. and Guillory was not appointed to serve in the CBO representative seat. The PPC then directed staff to proceed with a recruitment process for the vacant seat. On March 30, 2021, your Board approved appointments for 2021 for all CCP seats except for the CBO representative seat. The County Administrator's Office issued a Press Release on April 7, 2021 to recruit for the vacant CBO representative. Two applications were received prior to the May 10, 2021 deadline and both applicants were invited to participate in public interviews. At the PPC meeting on May 24, 2021, both applicants were considered and Mr. Mims was in attendance and interviewed. Following consideration, the PPC recommended Pat Mims for appointment to the CCP with a term ending December 31, 2021.
If this action is not approved, the Community Based Organization Representative seat will remain vacant.
