Summary of Request:
The concept of a Cultural Services Agency has been a long standing opportunity for Mendocino County. With the recent retirement of the Museum Director, the Executive Office began reviewing options associated with the creation of such an agency, working closely with the current Library Director. The Board of Supervisors is being presented with a draft Cultural Services Agency conceptual plan, including an overview of the vision, goals, resource needs, and timelines associated with the agency formation.
The concept of the formation of the Cultural Services Agency has been briefly discussed with the Museum Advisory Board and the Library Advisory Board chair. As the formation of the Agency is in the conceptual phases, detailed outreach with stakeholders has been held to a minimum. Staff would request that the Board of Supervisors review the draft Cultural Services Agency “concept” report and provide direction to staff to proceed with the formation process, including meeting with stakeholders, conduct a fiscal analysis, move forward with recruitment of staff currently allocated in the Museum, and continue to work with Human Resources on the current and future staffing needs of the agency. It is anticipated that the Executive Office will return to the Board with a final report with recommendations (including any classification adjustments) within the next 90-120 days.
Alternative Action/Motion:
Provide additional direction to staff.
