STAFF REPORT
Agenda Item No. 16 Meeting Date: August 3, 2010
Subject:
Designate an alternate board member for the Silicon Valley Regional Interoperability Agency
(SVRIA).
Recommended Action:
Select representative from Council.
Discussion
Council recently agreed to join the SVRIA, a joint powers agency created to improve the ability of
different public agencies to communicate with each other on a day-to-day basis and in emergencies.
Council also delegated to the West Valley Mayors and Managers organization authority to designate
the board member representing those five West Valley cities. The West Valley group designated
Jason Baker, Councilmember from Campbell, as the board member and further determined that the
position would rotate among the five cities based on the alphabetic order of the cities. Since the first
board designee is from Campbell, Cupertino is next in order.
Jason finds that he may have to miss a meeting of the board and has requested that an alternate board
member be designated. Accordingly, Cupertino is being asked to provide the alternate board member
to represent the five West Valley cities should our representative, Jason Baker, have to miss a
meeting.
