Motion: <br /> <br />VICTORIA ZARAGOZA <br /> <br />Boardmember Zaragoza raised two concerns. She asked the Board's <br />legal counsel if meetings of Ad Hoc Committees were covered by the <br />Brown Act, and asked who may or may not attend Board meetings. Legal <br />Counsel Ben Kaufman responded that these committees were not <br />covered under the Brown Act. <br /> <br />Director Zaragoza further expressed concerns relative to a number of <br />requests to staff coming from various sources including Empowerment <br />Zone Committee Chairs that may not be appropriate and are extremely <br />time consuming. Board discussion ensued. Director Bracho stated that <br />she trusted the professionalism of staff and respected their judgment. The <br />following motion was made by Director Ream: <br /> <br />In the event the Empowerment Zone Manager receives requests <br />where Board direction is needed, he should direct such requests to <br />the attention of the Chair of the Empowerment Zone. <br /> <br />MOTION: Ream <br /> <br />SECOND: Leaman <br /> <br />VOTE: AYES: <br /> <br />Brewster; Burrier-Lund; Cibrian; Cong; <br />Dietz; Leaman; Martinez; Metzler; Price; <br />Ream; Reyna; Zaragoza (12) <br /> <br />NOES: Bracho (1) <br /> <br />ABSENT: <br /> <br />Armijo; Davis; Garza; Haynes; Hemandez; <br />Magdalena; Mijares; Sanchez-Valentine <br />(8) <br /> <br />DISCUSSION <br /> <br />ONESTOPCAPITALSHOP <br /> <br />Empowerment Zone Manager Bill Manis reported that staff has met with a <br />broker to look at potential sites for the one-stop stop and that a few <br />locations have been suggested as potential sites. <br /> <br />FUNDING STATUS <br /> <br />Empowerment Zone Manager Bill Manis provided a status report on <br />Fourth Year funding for the Empowerment Zone.
