LAFCO re-nominates chair; legal counsel contract extension continued
Summary
LAFCO members moved to renominate the chair and vice chair for one-year terms and voted to continue consideration of an extension and cap increase for interim legal counsel to the next meeting while commissioners asked for budget detail.
During the meetinggovernance item 9Commissioner Campos moved to renominate the chair for a one-year term and the motion was seconded and later approved by the body.
On item 10, staff recommended extending the contract for interim legal counsel (Ms. Miller) and raising the cap to cover anticipated Clean Power SF legal work. Jason Fried (LAFCO staff) said the extra work would be billed against the PUC-provided fund rather than the general LAFCO general fund for CCA-related tasks and that invoices are being reviewed to separate PUC-funded from general-fund work.
Several commissioners asked for more detail on hours, billing and savings resulting from newly hired LAFCO staff. Commissioner Campos and others urged waiting for a fuller budget presentation; a motion to continue the contract-extension matter to the next meeting was made, seconded and approved.
Why it matters: the action preserves continuity in legal support while commissioners requested clearer budget accounting before approving any contract-cap increase.
