MEETING DATE: December 16, 2020
TO: Board of Directors
FROM: Shanna D. Kuhlemier, CMC, District Clerk
SUBJECT: Selection of a General Manager Succession Ad Hoc
Committee
APPROVED BY_______________________________
Shanna D. Kuhlemier, CMC, District Clerk
RECOMMENDATION:
Establish the General Manager Succession Ad Hoc Committee, and appoint two Board of
Directors to serve the duration of the Ad Hoc Committee.
DISCUSSION:
Board of Directors Ad Hoc Committees are commonly used in governments to create a
subcommittee under the Board of Directors for the purpose of specific tasks. Members of
Ad Hoc Committees established by the Board of Directors are advisory to the Board and
members of the committee are appointed by the Board.
Ad hoc committees are treated differently under the Ralph M. Brown Act as it relates to
noticing and posting requirements. The committee must:
Be compromised solely of less than a quorum of the legislative body (two Directors
in the case of the District);
Have a defined purpose and a time frame to accomplish the purpose;
Is advisory to the Board and does not have delegated decision making authority;
and
Will return to the full Board of Directors on any recommendations.
On November 18, 2020 the Board of Directors terminated the employment of General
Manager, Rem Scherzinger and appointed Brian Wright as Interim General Manager. The
Board of Directors has requested staff to implement the establishment of a Board of
Directors Ad Hoc Committee and selection of members, for the purposes of negotiating an
Interim General Manager agreement with Brian Wright, identifying the succession/transition
plan and process, and establish a selection process of a new General Manager.
