AGENDA TITLE:
title
Discussion and Possible Action Regarding the Composition of the Mendocino County Planning Commission
(Sponsors: Supervisor Williams and Supervisor Haschak)
End

RECOMMENDED ACTION/MOTION:
recommendation
Direct County Counsel to prepare amendment reducing Mendocino County Planning [l1][AP2]Commission to one seat per Supervisorial District.
End

PREVIOUS BOARD/BOARD COMMITTEE ACTIONS:
None.

SUMMARY OF REQUEST:
The Mendocino County Planning Commission is presently composed of seven members. Each Supervisor nominates an appointment and in addition there are seats for agricultural and forestry representatives. All appointments are confirmed by the BOS. Mendocino County is unique in that we have two industry appointments. Other industries are desiring representation on the Planning Commission. The Planning Commission would benefit from a more streamlined commission and a more workable quorum. To align our Planning Commission with other counties and give fair representation to all, the recommendation is to eliminate the two additional seats on the Planning Commission. With five seats on the Planning Commission, a quorum of 3 would be sufficient and a majority of two could move decisions.

ALTERNATIVE ACTION/MOTION:
Provide further direction to staff or take no action.

SUPERVISORIAL DISTRICT: ALL

VOTE REQUIREMENT: Majority
