DISCUSSION / BACKGROUND
Commission membership established in bylaws, Article VI, Section B, “Members of the Commission are appointed in accordance with the process established by the El Dorado County Board of Supervisors for County Commissions”. On May 13, 2013, Commissioners voted to establish three-year terms adding Section D to the bylaws, “Members shall serve for terms of three years and until his/her successor is appointed by the Board of Supervisors. There is no limit to the number of terms an appointed Commission member may serve.”
On March 12, 2025, Commission staff were notified that Commissioner Velasco was unable to complete her term as a Community Representatives, creating a vacancy. A vacancy notice for the position was posted by the El Dorado County Clerk from March 27, 2025 through April 17, 2025. Two membership applications were received.
