Board of Trustees
The
District’s governing power is vested in the Board of Trustees, which is
comprised of 35 members. One trustee is appointed by each respective city and
the County Board of Supervisors appoints one. To be appointed, the member must
be a resident voter of the representative city (or county for county member) in
the District. Board member duties and responsibilities include setting policy,
establishing the budget, approving expenditures, and retaining legal council.
The trustees serve a minimum of two years or maximum four-year term without
compensation, but do receive an in lieu travel expense of $100 for attending
each regularly scheduled board meeting.
The regularly scheduled board meetings are
held on the second Thursday of each month, starting at 7:00 p.m., at District
headquarters in Santa Fe Springs. All meetings are open to the
public.
