Body

DEPARTMENT RECOMMENDATION

On June 6, 2017 (Item 39), the El Dorado County Air Quality Management District (AQMD), acting as the AQMD Board of Directors, approved the Fiscal Year 2017/18 recommended budget for El Dorado County AQMD and will consider final adoption on June 27, 2017.

 

DISCUSSION / BACKGROUND

Health and Safety Code sections 40130-40131 require that air districts adopt their budgets in an open process, separate from other budget processes to ensure full opportunity for the public to participate in, and comment upon, a district’s budget prior to adoption.  Beginning on May 6, 2017, the AQMD prepared and made available to the public a summary of the proposed budget.  Direct mail notices were sent to all addresses that were subject to District fees during fiscal year 2016/17 regarding the availability of the budget summary online, at the AQMD office, and regarding the public hearing date and location.   As such, the public hearing date was scheduled for June 6, 2017, with a proposed adoption date of June 27, 2017.
