Report Title: Vacancy on the Contra Costa County Ad Hoc African American Holistic Wellness and Resource Hub Transitional Community Advisory Body
☒Recommendation of the County Administrator ☐ Recommendation of Board Committee
RECOMMENDATIONS:
ACCEPT the resignation of Jon Green, DECLARE a vacancy on the Ad Hoc African American Holistic Wellness and Resource Hub Transitional Community Advisory Body, and DIRECT the Clerk of the Board to post the vacancy.
FISCAL IMPACT:
None.
BACKGROUND:
On 8/12/25, the Board of Supervisors (BOS) approved the final implementation plan for the African American Holistic Wellness and Resource Hub (AAHWRH). At that time, the BOS approved the establishment of the Transitional Community Advisory Board (TCAB) for AAHWRH. This advisory body will review and provide feedback on the eligibility and selection criteria for: (1) the Implementation Lead entity; (2) the Executive Director; (3) the Board of Directors; (4) the Community Council. The advisory body will also support the outreach and recruitment efforts for interested and qualified candidates for all positions and roles described above. The advisory body will dissolve upon the successful completion of the above-mentioned actions.
On 10/21/25 (Item C.14), the BOS approved the appointment of thirteen (13) community members to the TCAB, including Mr. Jon Green (District 4). On 10/23/25 Mr. Green submitted a letter of resignation, resulting in a vacancy. The vacancy was posted administratively on 11/4/25.
CONSEQUENCE OF NEGATIVE ACTION:
The seat would not be declared vacant, which would hinder the ability to recruit to fill the position and could cause quorum issues for the body.
