Information

SUBJECT

Select two ad hoc Legislative Subcommittee members to replace former City Member Tom Stallard and former County Member Don Saylor

RECOMMENDED ACTION

Select two ad hoc Legislative Subcommittee members including no more than one member from each category (i.e. city, county, or public member) to replace former City Member Tom Stallard and former County Member Don Saylor.

FISCAL IMPACT

None.

REASONS FOR RECOMMENDED ACTION

Action is recommended to fill vacant city and county member positions on the ad hoc Legislative Committee. Yolo LAFCo Administrative Policies and Procedures Section 3.10 states:
"For situations when proposed legislation affecting LAFCo cannot be considered by the full Commission, Yolo LAFCo may appoint a legislative ad hoc subcommittee (Committee). If established, the Committee shall be comprised of two regular members including not more than one member from each category (i.e. city, county, or public member). The Committee shall review and approve legislation position letters prior to being submitted to the legislature. One of the Committee members shall be authorized to sign the position letter. Copies of legislative position letters shall be included on the next regular LAFCo meeting agenda as either informational or for discussion purposes."

BACKGROUND

The California Association of Local Agency Formation Commissions (CALAFCO) monitors proposed legislation that may impact LAFCos, and often requests letters of support or opposition on short notice. Often these letters are needed sooner than the next LAFCo Commission meeting where staff would confirm the Commission's position and approve submittal of such a letter. Therefore, in June 2012 Yolo LAFCo formed a legislative subcommittee to review CALAFCO requests for letters regarding proposed legislation to expedite turnaround time. 

Staff reviews any such requests from CALAFCO and drafts a letter for our legislative subcommittee review. If approved by the subcommittee, the letter is sent as soon as possible and then placed on the next Yolo LAFCo agenda under correspondence, so the other commissioners can review what was sent and provide any feedback.
