Referral History:
The Contra Costa Mosquito & Vector Control District was established in 1986 through the consolidation of two such districts. The boundaries of the current District are all of Contra Costa County. The District provides Countywide public health services through the control of mosquitoes, rats, skunks, yellowjackets and other vectors. Of the 22 members of the Board of Trustees, the Board of Supervisors appoints three to represent the unincorporated area. The Internal Operations Committee (IOC) screens the nominations for the three County seats.
Referral Update:
On January 2, 2017, the terms of office of the At Large 2 and 3 seats will expire. New appointments to the seats may be made for either two or four years, at the discretion of the Board of Supervisors.
Staff initiated a four-week recruitment on October 3, 2016 that garnered two applications, attached, from incumbents Chris Cowen and Darryl Young.
Recommendation(s)/Next Step(s):
CONSIDER recommending the reappointment of incumbents Chris Cowen (San Pablo) to the At Large #2 seat and Darryl Young (XXX) to the At Large #3 seat on the Contra Costa Mosquito & Vector Control District Board of Trustees to new four-year terms ending on January 2, 2021.
