Board appoints interim information executive; appointee accepts interim role
Summary
The board approved an interim appointment effective March 29 to fill an executive information role and heard brief remarks from the appointee, who pledged to lead the department during the interim period while a recruitment proceeds.
The Alameda County Board of Supervisors on March 24 approved an interim executive appointment effective March 29 and heard brief remarks from the appointee, identified at the meeting as Ram. The board authorized the appointment pending completion of the county’s recruitment and appointment process.
At the dais the appointee said the role is an honor and pledged to "give my all" to lead the team in an interim capacity, praising the department’s organizational foundation and staff. The board moved and seconded the item and carried it on a roll-call vote; one supervisor was excused at the time of the vote.
The agenda letter included a compensation figure, but the recorded audio in the transcript renders the biweekly compensation amount unclearly. County staff indicated the appointment is interim while a formal recruitment and permanent appointment proceed.
What’s next: the county will complete recruitment for the permanent position; staff will return to the board with updates consistent with the county’s personnel process.
