DISCUSSION:
On March 13, 2018, the Board adopted Resolution 18-19 joining the California Cannabis Authority (CCA) and appointing former Supervisor Estelle Fennell and Treasurer Tax Collector John Bartholomew as Humboldt County’s representatives to service on the CCA Board of Directors. Both were reappointed to the CCA Board for calendar years 2019 and 2020.
The CCA is a Joint Powers Authority (JPA) created by agreement between counties and sponsored by the California State Association of Counties (CSAC). The purpose of the organization is to develop and manage a statewide data platform that will gather, collect, and analyze information from a myriad of data sources into one resource, to help local governments ensure cannabis regulatory compliance and also provide necessary information to financial institutions that wish to work with the cannabis industry.
The Board now needs to appoint a Member and Alternate to the CCA Board for calendar year 2021. Please note that Treasurer Tax Collector John Bartholomew is willing to continue serving as the Alternate on the CCA Board.
