Title
Acting as the Board of Directors of the El Dorado County Air Quality Management District, Chief Administrative Office recommending the Board adopt and authorize the Chair to sign Resolution 097-2015 adopting the Fiscal Year 2015/16 Proposed Budget for El Dorado County Air Quality Management District. (Cont. 6/9/15, Item 21)
Body
Background
On June 9, 2015, the Board held a hearing on the 2015/16 Proposed Budget for El Dorado County Air Quality Management District. The Board was asked to come back on June 23, 2015 for final adoption of the budget. Health and Safety Code sections 40130-40131 require that the Air Quality Management District adopt their budget 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.
Reason for Recommendation
Beginning May 1, 2015, the district has prepared and made available to the public a summary of its budget. Notices went out to everyone who was subject to Air District fees during fiscal year 2014-15 regarding the public hearing date of a minimum of 30 days after notice and the availability of the budget summary at the Air District office and online at the Air District web site. As such, the public hearing was held on June 9, 2015 with a proposed adoption date of June 23, 2015.
