The Special District Advisory Committee (SDAC) was established as a standing committee by LAFCo on October 1, 2003. SDAC consists of a minimum of nine, but no more than seventeen, committee members, including the Alternate, and two Special District Commissioners.
It is the intent of LAFCo to have a diverse representation of Special Districts on the committee. The committee includes representatives from recreation and parks, fire, water, flood control/ reclamation, and other types of Special Districts (SMUD, Resource Conservation, CSD, etc.)
Nominees must sit as current Board members in a Special District in Sacramento County and must be nominated by their respective Board. Committee members will serve with no LAFCo compensation. Each committee member will serve a two-year term. Terms are staggered over a period of two years. Committee members are selected by the SDAC Nominating Committee and must be confirmed by LAFCo.
Information sharing is among the most valued elements of the SDAC. Accomplishments of the SDAC include:
- Development of the Bylaws of the Advisory Committee;
- Formulation of an equitable cost sharing formula for the Special District share of funding for the Commission;
- Enhanced criteria for Special District representation during city-county property tax exchange agreement negotiations; and
- Streamlining of the Special District Commission member selection process.
Quarterly Meetings
SDAC meets on the fifth Tuesday of the month at 7:00PM located in the Arden Room (1st floor) of SMUD Headquarters at 6201"S" Street, Sacramento CA 95817.
