Assembly Member Alvarez's modifications to the San Diego County Air Pollution Control District governing board expand membership flexibility while adjusting compensation structures and military liaison protocols. The legislation permits appointing authorities to designate alternate members who can vote and receive compensation when regular members are absent or disqualified, provided they meet the same qualifications as their primary counterparts.
The bill revises member selection parameters, allowing city selection committees to choose either mayors or council members from their supervisorial districts while capping individual city representation at two members. Beginning in 2029, the board clerk must conduct a random drawing to assign two-year terms to two city-selected members and two public members, creating staggered terms. The legislation also adjusts member compensation, permitting up to $200 per day and $2,000 monthly for attending meetings and conducting official business, with future increases tied to either 5% annual increments or California Consumer Price Index changes.
For military coordination, the measure removes the requirement that the Armed Forces liaison must represent the board of supervisors, instead mandating consultation with military branches before designating any board member to this role. The liaison maintains responsibility for reporting to the board on permitting, regulatory, and planning matters affecting military operations.
