|
BACKGROUND:
|
On November 5, 2008, the Board voted unanimously to appoint David S. Boesch to succeed John Maltbie as County Manager, subject to the negotiation of a written contract for services on terms acceptable to both parties. The Board appointed Supervisor Adrienne Tissier and Supervisor Richard Gordon as a subcommittee of the Board to conduct negotiations on behalf of the Board. The Board also directed that the matter be set on the Board’s November 18, 2008 agenda for consideration of any proposed agreement that might be negotiated by the Board’s subcommittee and Mr. Boesch.
|
|
|
DISCUSSION:
|
As of the writing of this staff report, negotiations are ongoing, and the terms of a proposed agreement to be presented to the Board have yet to be mutually agreed upon by the Board subcommittee and Mr. Boesch. When such terms have been finally negotiated and the form of agreement prepared, it will be made available to the public.
|
|
|
By adoption of Resolution No. 68565 on February 27, 2007, the Board approved a housing assistance loan fro David S. Boesch when he assumed his position as Assistant County Manager. The resolution designated the County Manager as the authorized individual to execute documents related to the loan. In order to avoid any potential conflict, in the event execution of documents on behalf of the County is necessary in the future, the resolution proposed for adoption would change the designation to the President of the Board.
