Delay Metrics

AC member Michael Rescigno and Bruce Agid met to review a very high -level draft of proposed metrics “score-card.”

The intent of this scorecard is two-fold. First, provide a high-level on-going review of the quality of services provided to support Chase Center Arena Events as well as measure impacts on the neighborhood and second, to inform the MB TIF budget process for future years; a valuable tool both for the City family and the AC members. We are hoping to identify metrics that are either already available and can be re-purposed for the scorecard or use data/metrics which are required based on commitments/agreements associated with the Chase Center.

The next steps are to review with City Staff who will then gather input from various City Departments/Agencies. There will be a final review of the working group and a first draft will be presented at the August 22nd MB TIF AC meeting.

Brown Act Overview -Roberta Boomer

The Brown Act was created in 1953 and guarantees the public’s right to attend and participate in meetings of local legislative bodies. The Act guides committees in the conducting of business in areas such as what constitutes a meeting, meeting noticing, agenda, setting, and communications. While the Brown Act covers many areas, key areas for the MB TIF AC to be familiar with are as follows.

What constitutes "a meeting" and what communications are permitted?

Duly noticed public meeting
Any congregation by a majority of the body at the same time on any topic within jurisdiction of the body
No action needed to make it a meeting

Power is of committee as a "body" not as an individual. Majority of Body is needed

Chair and Co-Chair are to ensure business is done with public input
Email communications should be done directly with staff liaison; do not hit “reply all.”
Advisory Committee members have the right to speak outside and at meetings.
During meetings, Committee members are encouraged to participate and speak on any and all matters on the agenda and/or pertaining to mission of the Committee.

Once agenda is posted, no discussion of or action on item not on agenda
