California Counties Weather the Storm


Long Beach • Los Angeles County • November 27–30, 2012

Dear Friends and Colleagues,

Welcome to the 118th CSAC Annual Meeting. It’s amazing

to think that since 1895 county leaders from across

California have been coming together annually to learn

the latest news, discuss issues and challenges, and plan

for the year ahead. Over this period, the role of our

Association – and our voice – has grown in significance. A

primary reason for our success has been your participation

and commitment to CSAC. We thank you for joining us this

week as we look toward another challenging year.

The theme of this year’s conference is “Voyage to Stability:

California Counties Weather the Storm.” It has been a

stormy few years; but we are weathering this storm and,

as an Association, we are doing everything we can to

ensure a more stable future. We are optimistic about what

the future holds.

We have a great program in place this week; I am

confident you will find the speakers, workshops and

committee meetings to be a worthwhile investment.

It has been an honor serving as your President this past

year, and I thank you for the opportunity.

Mike McGowan

Tuesday Kick-Off General Session1:00 pm – 2:30 pmGrand Ballroom, 2nd LevelLong Beach Convention Center

Featured Speaker:Simon Sinek Renowned Leadership Expert and Author

“Start with Why”

Why are some organizations more innovative, more influential, and more profitable than others? Why do some command greater loyalty from customers and employees alike? Even among the successful, why are so few able to repeat their success over and over?

Any organization can explain what it does; some can even explain how they do it; but very few can clearly articulate WHY they do it.

Starting with WHY works in big business and small business, in the non-profit world and in politics. Those who start with WHY, those who have a clear vision as to why they are doing what they do, inspire others. The people that follow them don’t do so because they have to, they do so because they want to.

Drawing on a wide range of real-life stories, Sinek weaves together a clear vision of what it truly takes to articulate your WHY and how to use that as a starting off point to inspire others and achieve success.

He will show us:

• That it doesn’t matter what you do, it matters why you do it;

• How to be open to new ideas and look at old ideas through a new lens;

• To understand that employees are the backbone of any organization and the key to success.

Whether you might want to admit it or not, at times internal communication among PIOs within a county can improve. This communication is especially important when an issue impacts different departments and different messages are distributed. This workshop will focus on best practices within the County PIO structure that:

• Establish protocols for inter-departmental PIO communication.

“Where Economics and Politics Meet”

Ezra Klein gives audiences a candid discourse on today’s economic and political events and the impact that the lack of consensus and bipartisanship in Washington is having on the U.S. and many countries around the world that find themselves facing one of the most critical economic, social and business crises in decades. From health care reform, high unemployment, entitlement and Social Security reform to the lack of business growth, Klein will leave no area untouched, giving audiences a clear understanding of the issues and implications stemming from the 2012 elections.

Moving Forward in the Sacramento-San Joaquin Delta: Areas of Agreement and Unresolved Issues102, Long Beach Convention Center Although conflict receives the most attention, there are many unheralded areas of agreement in both current efforts to implement the 2009 Delta Reform Act and past efforts to improve the Sacramento-San Joaquin Delta. Local governments and non-profit organizations have partnered with the state and federal government to achieve successful outcomes, including habitat restoration and levee improvements. The lessons learned

from these partnerships can provide a road map for addressing some of the remaining unresolved issues that divide water users and other stakeholders in Northern and Southern California. Moderator:

It’s not about stress management. That won’t work! It’s not about changing your circumstances. That will only change the scenery. Today, more than ever, you are being asked to do more and more. What it gets down to is how you choose to invest energy. It’s not the hours you work, it’s the value you get from the work you do. Do not, under any circumstances, let someone convince you that it is an easy process - but it is simple. In this session, participants will learn what it takes to stay calm and focused even if they don’t like the circumstances.

1:30 pm – 4:00 pmCSAC Institute Course Crafting and Implementing Effective Strategic Plans203 C, 2nd Level, Long Beach Convention Center

Most counties and county departments create strategic plans. Sometimes they provide clear guidance to decision makers and staff; sometimes they don’t. This course examines how to make the plan a living document … and have it mean something to those affected. The course opens with a discussion of the purpose of a strategic plan – what it can do and what it does not do. Participants examine: 1) how to craft a strategic plan with the Board of Supervisors or other governing board; 2) engagement of the community and staff in the process; 3) tips to prepare an actionable plan; 4) communication of the plan; and 5) putting a plan into action.

8:30 am – 11:30 amCSAC Institute Course Intergovernmental Collaboration – Fostering Effective Relationships across the Boundaries203 C, 2nd Level, Long Beach Convention Center

Counties must regularly establish and maintain a variety of relationships with other local, regional, state and federal agencies. Many counties see collaborations as a potential tool to reduce costs and maintain services. Sometimes the parameters of the relationship are dictated by law, but more often the relationship is crafted and maintained by the participants.

This session examines best practices for establishing and maintaining collaborations with other governments. Techniques include identification of collaborative opportunities, who to involve and initial steps for success, how to authorize a collaboration, roles of elected officials and staff, collaborating through political waters, keeping a collaborative effort alive, and what to do when the collaboration stops being collaborative.

Objectives: • Discuss the purpose and desired outcomes of

working with other agencies • Design the appropriate structure and documents

to assure participation and useful outcomes• Apply techniques that encourage clear

expectations, roles for elected officials and staff, and decision making

Nomination of CSAC Officers and Executive Committee MembersThe Members of the Board of Directors will meet in Caucus on Wednesday afternoon from 4:30 pm – 5:30 pm to nominate candidates for the CSAC officer from that Caucus for the coming year. Nominees must be supervisors representing counties within that Caucus. Under the established rotation of officers, selection for 2012-13 must be as follows:

President: Rural Caucus1st Vice President: Urban Caucus2nd Vice President: Suburban Caucus

Following the nomination of the officers, each Caucus will also make nominations to the full Board of Directors for Executive Committee positions to be filled from that Caucus. Nominees must be members of the Board representing counties included within the Caucus. The members of a Caucus may nominate as many candidates for their Executive Committee positions as desired, but the Constitution limits each Caucus to the following numbers of Executive Committee members who will be elected by the full Board of Directors:

Urban Caucus: 6Suburban Caucus: 3Rural Caucus: 2

In addition, each Caucus may nominate one representative to serve as an alternate member on the Executive Committee.

A Caucus may nominate more than one candidate for a CSAC office and also nominate one or more of those candidates for a position on the Executive Committee. As the election of the CSAC officers will take place prior to the Board of Directors’ election of Executive Committee members, the Caucus Chair at the meeting of the Board of Directors need only withdraw the name of that Executive Committee nominee who has been elected to a CSAC office.

Election of Officers - General Assembly and Establishment of Quorum: The General Assembly begins at 1 p.m. on Tuesday, November 27, 2011, and closes at the end of the luncheon program/election of officers on Thursday, November 29, 2012. Election of officers will require a quorum of one-third of the Association membership of 2012 supervisors attending the Annual Meeting.

Further Nominations from the Floor – During the Thursday luncheon program, the President will present the nominations for CSAC officers from the Director members of each Caucus and then call for further nominations from the floor. Any member of the Association may place an additional name in nomination for any office, provided that the person nominated is from the Caucus to be represented in that office for the year.

Statements By or In Support of Nominees – After closing nominations, the President will allow nominees the opportunity to address the general membership concerning their candidacies. Statements from the floor in support of a candidate will also be allowed, but the President may limit the number and length of such statements to meet overall time constraints.

Voting – Voting for uncontested offices may be by hand, voice vote, or by secret ballot, at the ruling of the President. Voting for contested offices must be by secret ballot. To vote by ballot, each member of the Association at the general session will sign the register located in the meeting room, receive and fill out a ballot, and deposit the ballot in the ballot box following nominations from the floor.

Election to Office Requires the Vote of a Majority – Of the members present and voting for the office. If no nominees received a majority vote, the two nominees who receive the greatest number of votes shall participate in a runoff.

Election of Executive Committee Members – The Board of Directors will meet Thursday, November 29, 2012, after the conclusion of the General Assembly, to elect the Executive Committee. The Board quorum requirement under the Constitution is 25 members.

Voting by Board of Directors – The President will place the nominees for each Caucus before the Board for election. Election to the Executive Committee will require a majority vote.

Session Sponsored by Women Leading Government (WLG)

Public-private partnerships and intergovernmental collaborations are becoming a more efficient and effective option for delivery of services to our communities. Many existing examples clearly demonstrate the benefits of having these combined efforts with a single point of executive leadership, focused and technically proficient staff, and economies of scale in the delivery of services. However, challenges of leading a group with multiple stakeholders abound, including balancing the various needs, priorities, and demands of the member agencies. This breakout session will highlight several successful JPA, public private partnerships, and service agreement models which currently have women in key leadership roles. Join this engaging session and learn about how strong leadership and networking can help navigate the many challenges of leading an organization with multiple reporting agencies and multiple bosses.
