East Bay RPC To Set Election Agenda
BIA|Bay Area's East Bay Regional Policy Committee will select the association's target races and issues headed for the ballot in Contra Costa, Alameda and Solano counties on Nov. 6, 2018. The RPC will meet from 10 a.m. to noon on Aug. 16, 2018, at KB Home's Training Room (first floor), Bishop Ranch 8, 5000 Executive Parkway in San Ramon. Under the direction of East Bay RPC Chairman Vince Fletcher with Integral Communities, the committee will also select the races to host at one or more housing educational forums for East Bay candidates in September and discuss language for housing questionnaires that will be submitted to the would-be elected officials and those seeking re-election. The materials and information gathered during the forums and from the questionnaires will be used during the RPC's meeting on Oct. 3, 2018, to help the committee make its final recommendations for financial support to the Build Jobs PAC. The event is limited to BIA members only and is free to attend, but registration is required as seating is limited.
