Previous Board/Board Committee Actions:
August 29, 2006, an MOU was adopted “For the Provision of Services and Payment Therefore Between the County of Mendocino and the Air Quality Management District”
January 7, 225, the District Board directed CEO Antle to review and provide recommendations to the Board of Directors on updates to the MOU.
Summary of Request:
The Air Quality Management District (hereinafter “District”) relies on the support of many County of Mendocino Departments pursuant to a Memorandum of Understanding for the Provisions of Services Between the County and the District, Agreement No. 06-209, as authorized by Health and Safety Code. The District’s last Air Pollution Control Officer (APCO) retired January 8, 2022. After that time, the District entered into an MOU with the County of Lake and the District Board appointed an Interim APCO. The position of Interim APCO became vacant effective December 31, 2024 upon Lake County’s early termination of the agreement. Thereafter, the position of Deputy APCO became vacant as of April 26, 2025. The District Board approved a recruitment for APCO which is still ongoing. In the interim, the District has a vital and time sensitive need for management and support given the vacancies of all management positions in the District. The County’s Chief Executive Officer is willing to provide that management and supportive role for as long as necessary and until an APCO is appointed. Based on this urgent need and the willingness of County management to step in and assist, the Chair submits this Resolution to the District Board recommending authorizing the County Chief Executive Officer and/or her designee to take steps necessary to manage the District, oversee personnel and effect all management decisions necessary to the extent not otherwise prohibited by law.
