13. COUNTY ATTORNEY MATTERS <br />B.A. ORGANIZATIONAL MEETING OF THE VALUE ADJUSTMENT BOARD AND <br />RESOL UTIONAPPOINTING VAL UE ADJUSTMENT BOARD MEMBERS <br />AND PROVIDING FOR OR REJECTING PER DIEM COMPENSATION FOR <br />VALUE ADJUSTMENT BOARD <br />County Attorney William Collins recapped the backup memorandum of July 9, <br />2008, regarding the changes which will occur in the composition of the Value Adjustment Board <br />(VAB). Currently, three Commissioners must be appointed to the Board, but as of September 1, <br />2008, one Commissioner will be replaced with a Citizen appointee, to be selected at the August <br />19, 2008 BCC meeting. Applications for the Citizen Appointee position may be obtained at the <br />County's website, and submitted by August 12, 2008. Attorney Collins noted that prior to that <br />time, there would be a Value Adjustment Board (VAB) Organizational Meeting. He <br />recommended appointing Commissioners Flescher and O'Bryan (who are not standing for re- <br />election), and selecting the third appointee, who will serve until September 1St, from the <br />remaining Commissioners. <br />Attorney Collins reported that Legal staff has prepared two separate draft <br />Resolutions: one to accept per diem compensation; the other to reject per diem compensation, as <br />has been done in the past. <br />Discussion ensued between staff and the Board regarding whether rejection of the <br />per diem provision would affect both the Commissioners and the Citizen Appointee. After <br />learning that the per diem provision would apply to all VAB members, the Board's Consensus <br />was to approve the Resolution 2rantina the per diem compensation. It was noted that doing so <br />would allow the Citizen Appointee to be reimbursed for his/her costs, but would not obligate the <br />Commissioners to request or accept compensation. <br />July 15, 2008 32 <br />
