continue to meet remotely without complying with otherwise-applicable requirements in

the Brown Act related to remote/teleconference meetings by local agency legislative

bodies, provided that a state of emergency has been declared and the legislative body

determines that meeting in person would present imminent risks to the health or safety

of attendees, and provided that the legislative body continues to make such findings at

least every 30 days during the term of the declared state of emergency; and

WHEREAS, the Board of Supervisors and this Committee have again

reconsidered the circumstances of the state of emergency and finds that the state of

emergency continues to impact the ability of members of the Committee to meet in

safety of meeting participants (such as the increased mixing associated with bringing

together people from across the community, the need to enable those who are

immunocompromised or unvaccinated to be able to safely continue to participate fully in

public governmental meetings, and the challenges with fully ascertaining and ensuring

compliance with vaccination and other safety recommendations at such meetings); and

WHEREAS, this Committee and several other County legislative bodies

typically meet in-person in public buildings where other essential governmental

functions take place, such that increasing the number of people present in those

buildings may impair the safety of the occupants; and
