VIDEO. From the Coastside County Water District (CCWD) Director’s meeting Tuesday, December 14th, 2021 at 7:00pm by Zoom.

 

Background

In June of 2017 the Superior Court of California, County of San Mateo released the Grand Jury’s Report entitled “Can We See You Now? San Mateo County’s Independent Special Districts Website Transparency Update”, which was a follow up to the Grand Jury’s 2014 report, “Partly Cloudy with a Chance of Information”.

 

 

 

The reports provided findings and recommendations pertaining to website transparency issues with 23 independent special districts operating within San Mateo County.

At the July 11, 2017 Coastside County Water District’s Board of Directors Meeting, the Board approved the District’s response to the findings and recommendations prepared by District staff. One of the recommendations encouraged submitting an application for the District Transparency Certificate of Excellence to the California Special Districts Special Leadership Foundation.

District staff submitted this application and was awarded the Certificate of Excellence in October of 2019 for a duration of two years.

Staff has recently been working on the submittal application to renew the District Transparency Certificate of Excellence, which included meeting a number of basic requirements, a listing of website requirements, as well as fulfilling a number of outreach/best practices requirements.

The overall purpose of the District Transparency Certificate of Excellence is to promote transparency in the operations and governance of special districts to the public/constituents and provide special districts with an opportunity to showcase their efforts in transparency.

The application was recently approved and staff has been advised that Colleen Haley, Public Affairs Field Coordinator, will be presenting the Certificate of Excellence at the December 14, 2021 CCWD Board of Directors Meeting.
