DEPARTMENTAL RECOMMENDATION:
First 5 Solano/County Administrator's Office recommends the Board of Supervisors to approve the appointment of Sabrina Drake to the Solano County Child Care Planning Council (CCPC) for a four year term to expire on April 2, 2023.
SUMMARY/DISCUSSION:
State of California Education Code ?8499.3 requires the Board of Supervisors and the Superintendent of Schools each appoint one-half of the members of the CCPC. State law also requires that CCPC membership be distributed as follows: 20% consumers of child care services, 20% child care providers, 20% community representatives, 20% public agency representatives, and the remaining 20% from any of the above categories at the discretion of the Board of Supervisors and the Superintendent of Schools.
Ms. Sabrina Drake would serve on the Council as a Public Agency Representative and would bring to the CCPC her unique perspective as the Assistant Director at Solano Community College Early Learning Center. She will bring to the CCPC over 20 years of experience in the field of Early Care and Education. Her multifaceted viewpoint as a leader in an organization that advances professional development in the field makes her uniquely qualified to serve on the Council.

The costs associated with preparing the agenda item are nominal and absorbed by the Department's FY2018/19 Adopted Budget. There is no financial impact associated with the appointment of CCPC members.
ALTERNATIVES:
