Summary of Request

Pursuant to Rule No. 4 and Rule No. 30 of the Rules of Procedure of the Board of Supervisors, the Chair shall appoint annual standing committees. From 2011-2015 no referrals were made and the standing committees did not meet. On January 5, 2016, the Board of Supervisors approved formation of the standing committees for 2016. On August 16, 2016 the Board of Supervisors made a directive to change the name of the Criminal Justice Committee to the Public Safety Committee, to take effect in 2017. On December 20, 2016 the Board of Supervisors reported out on the 2016 standing committee referrals and made referrals for the 2017 standing committees, pending their formation. For calendar year 2017, Board policy discussion is requested to determine whether to: 1) appoint standing committee members pursuant to historical practice; 2) appoint standing committee members but defer activation of the committees pending referral of items for consideration; 3) waive the Board Rules of Procedure and do not make standing committee appointments. Waiver of the rules requires 4/5ths concurrence of the Board.
