Item C01�Mx" MU11.1 0 1010 LINO 16 KA Meeting Date: June 15, 2011 Division: Community Services Bulk Item: Yes No Department: —Extension Services Staff Contact Person / Phone #- Doup- Greaory / 4502 AGENDA ITEM WORDING: Approval of a Resolution to clarify the membership on the Climate Change Advisory Committee (CCAC) and to repeal the prior Resolution 02-2011. ITEM BACKGROUND: The initial resolution was unclear as to the status of the utilities, municipalities, and other governmental entities. The initial resolution apparently made them members of the committee; however, the intent of the resolution was to allow them to advise the committee. It is important to the function of the CCAC to be able to draw from the expertise and experience of various entities such as utilities, municipalities, etc.; therefore, Resolution 02-2011 needed to be clarified and a new resolution adopted in its place which clearly stated that the above entities were not members of the committee. PREVIOUS RELEVANT BOCC ACTION: On June 18,2008, Resolution No. 177-2008 established the creation of an advisory board to recommend green standards to be adopted as local technical amendments into the Florida Building Code. On April 15, 2009, Resolution 121-2009 renamed the task force the Green Initiative Task Force and changed its focus to providing recommendations to the BOCC of environmentally sound practices and techniques to protect the environment. The Green Initiative Task Force was sunset on October 1, 2010. On September 15, 2010 the BOCC requested staff to prepare a resolution for consideration in January, 2011 for establishment of a new advisory panel to continue the efforts started by the previous board. On January 19, 2011 the BOCC passed a resolution establishing a Climate Change Advisory Committee to make recommendations regarding climate change mitigation and adaptation strategies.
