§ 25-2.202. Application to policy bodies—Definitions.  


Latest version.
  • (a)

    For the purposes of this division a "policy body" means the board of supervisors, or any permanent or temporary board, committee or commission under the authority of the board of supervisors. A committee entirely made up of county staff is not a "policy body." A municipal advisory council entirely made up of the elected members of the governing board of a community services district, who have been designated by the board of supervisors to serve ex officio as the appointed members of the municipal advisory council, is not a "policy body."

    (b)

    A "delegated body" is any private entity which receives a grant of governmental authority, financial support, or property, pursuant to action by the board of supervisors; and is governed by a multi-member body, which includes one or more members of a policy body.

    (c)

    "County" includes the county of Contra Costa and all special districts, agencies and authorities of which the board of supervisors is the governing body. "County" does not include a municipal advisory council entirely made up of the elected members of the governing board of a community services district, who have been designated by the board of supervisors to serve ex officio as the appointed members of the municipal advisory council.

    (d)

    "Permanent advisory committee" means a permanent committee created by the county administrator, or a department head to advise the county administrator, or a department head. "Permanent advisory committee" does not include a committee made up entirely of county staff.
