Designate Nolan Sullivan, Health & Human Services Agency ("HHSA") Director, as a voting member of the Community Corrections Partnership Executive Committee. 

Penal Code section 1230.1(b) requires the County to create an "executive committee" of the Community Corrections Partnership (CCP) to develop and present a "local plan . . . for the implementation of the 2011 public safety realignment." The executive committee consists of "the chief probation officer of the County as chair, a chief of police, the sheriff, the District Attorney, the Public Defender, the presiding judge of the superior court, or his or her designee, and one department representative" selected from three positions reserved for HHSA leadership staff holding social services, mental health, and alcohol and substance abuse positions within the agency.

By law, the Board is required to identify the HHSA "department representative" for the executive committee. That role has been filled by Ian Evans since the departure of former HHSA Director Karen Larsen. With Ian's acceptance of the Executive Director position with Yolo County Housing, Nolan Sullivan has offered to take on the executive committee role for HHSA. The Probation Chief supports the recommended action.
