RECOMMENDATION

This item is presented for Agency information only; no action is requested.

 

DISCUSSION

Shasta County RTPA has been a member of CALCOG for many years.  CALCOG is an association of regional agencies, throughout California, who promote the interests and address issues unique to regional agencies.  It could be considered akin to the League of California Cities or the California State Association of Counties.

 

Attached to this staff report is a letter from Rusty Selix, Executive Director of CALCOG.  In the letter he indicates that, Judy Mikels, Ventura County Supervisor, and current president of CALCOG, would like to see all regional agencies presented updates of what CALCOG is doing.  Therefore, CALCOG staff has committed to producing summaries of CALCOG activities.  These summaries will recap delegate and director meetings.

 

Also attached is a summary of the Western COG conference held in August and a recap of the “COG Directors” meeting held in September. 

 

Unless directed otherwise by the Agency, this item will become a standing consent calendar item.

 

ALTERNATIVES

The Agency could choose to not receive CALCOG updates, or could direct staff to place future updates on the regular calendar for presentation to the Agency.

 

OTHER AGENCY INVOLVEMENT

This item has been discussed at the October 7, 2003 TAC meeting.

 

FINANCING

This item has no impact on Agency finances.
