And the Meeting Agenda – Final-revised document is embedded. According to reporting in The Monterey County Herald, “
the Board of Supervisors is scheduled to consider the authority's request for additional funding, and participation, from the county, including nearly $380,000 in past and future authority expenses.” Supervisor Dave Potter is requesting “
a full accounting of the authority's past spending and future expenses, as well as the authority's strategic plan” beacuase of concerns about “
mission creep and the prospect of funding another layer of bureaucracy.” Importantly, “
Potter said the county remains in a holding pattern regarding direct participation on the authority board more than two years after allegations emerged that he would have a conflict of interest if he served.”
