Who Decides What Items are on the Board's agenda?

While scheduling of Board items is the responsibility of the Clerk of the Board, Agenda items can be initiated by any Department Head or Board Member.
However, each item may have multiple reviews and sign-offs that need to be accomplished before it can be placed on an agenda (for instance, the Auditor must sign off on items that affect the budget, HR must sign off on items that change job descriptions, and County Counsel must sign off on agreements, ordinances, and resolutions.) Each item indicates the initiating department or Board member who is requesting the action, and the staff report that accompanies the item is their explanation for the request.
