Nomination of Jill Abel for CPAAC secretary for 2019: Moved by Ann Fremd (Tuolumne
County), second by Angela Davis (Shasta County). Motion carried.

• Introductions and Recognition of New Members: We welcomed Pamela Nichols from
Lake County; Monica Coryea, Sr. Management Consultant from Stanislaus County; Keri
Paris from Kern County (Deputy Chief HR Officer); Lisa DeMatteo from Humboldt
County.
• Acknowledgements Past and Retiring Officers: Marc let the group know that the Board
has decided to do formal recognition for retiring HR directors based on a set of criteria.
He had the pleasure of going to Placer and San Mateo to recognize Lori Walsh and
Donna Vaillancourt. If you have a retiring HR director, let Marc Fox and Pam Knorr
know.
The criteria for CPAAC recognition for retiring HR Director are:
o Is the county current on CPAAC dues?
o Has the individual been an HR director for a California county for a minimum of 5
years (service not limited to same county).
o Has the individual regularly attended CPAAC conference (i.e., at least one
conference of the last 2 and at least 2 of the last 4)?
 If the answer for the retiring HR Director is “yes” to all 3 criteria, CPAAC will
purchase a plaque and will present it at the retirement party or in the
retiree’s county.
Pam Knorr recognized Marc Fox, who drove from Fairfield to Placer County on a Friday
afternoon to recognize Lori Walsh at her retirement party.

• Our schedule today: Micki Callahan (San Francisco) and Tim Yeung (Sloan, Sakai, Yeung
and Wong) will be at the end of today’s presentation due to conflict with other
commitments. First thing will be regional breakout.
