This section is included in your selections.

A person who has been elected to the Board of Supervisors, but who has not yet assumed office (Supervisor-Elect) may request that the Board provide training and orientation for such Supervisor-Elect to assist such person to perform his or her duties as a Board member, and may request that the Board authorize payment for such training and orientation from County funds. Each such request shall be in writing and shall specify the training or orientation or session proposed to be attended by such person, the maximum anticipated expenditure, and such other information as may be required by the Board. If such request is approved by the Board, the Supervisor-Elect shall be reimbursed for authorized expenditures upon filing a claim therefor in such form as may be required by the County.

In addition to authorizing attendance at classes or training sessions sponsored by entities other than the County, upon request by one (1) or more Supervisor-Elect, the Board may provide such orientation and training by holding or sponsoring classes for such purpose.

Expenses which the Board may authorize pursuant to the provisions of this section shall include, but not be limited to, the payment of course fees, travel and per diem expenses, course materials, and consultant services.

Trainings for Supervisors-Elect are typically held through the California State Association of Counties. Reimbursement will be based on actual costs incurred, and pre-approval will be provided based on available funding per Supervisor-Elect (Reference: § 25208.4 of the Government Code). (Ord. 1559, § 1, 11/2/1982; Ord. 2647, § 1 (Att. 1), 8/18/2020)
