Body
SUMMARY:
The attached Work Plan outlines the topics for discussion to be able to prepare policy alternatives and implications for Board deliberation. The work plan is agendized at each meeting as accomplishments are updated and to review any work plan assignments by the Board.
BACKGROUND:
Governance Process Policy-8:
The District Act provides for the creation of advisory boards, committees, or commissions by resolution to serve at the pleasure of the Board.
Accordingly, the Board has established Advisory Committees, which bring respective expertise and community interest, to advise the Board, when requested, in a capacity as defined: prepare Board policy alternatives and provide comment on activities in the implementation of the District’s mission for Board consideration. In keeping with the Board’s broader focus, Advisory Committees will not direct the implementation of District programs and projects, other than to receive information and provide comment.
Further, in accordance with Governance Process Policy-3, when requested by the Board, the Advisory Committees may help the Board produce the link between the District and the public through information sharing to the communities they represent.
ENVIRONMENTAL JUSTICE IMPACT:
The review and approval of the Committee Work Plan is not subject to environmental justice analysis.
