Doyle, General Manager Erich Pfuehler, Government Relations and Legislative Affairs Manager SUBJECT: Board Legislative Committee Meeting WHEN: Friday, October 24, 2014 - 12:45 p.m. Lunch will be served WHERE: Board Room, Peralta Oaks _______ Items to be discussed: I. STATE LEGISLATION / ISSUES A. NEW LEGISLATION – N/A B. ISSUES 1. Proposition 1 – State Water Bond The $7.5 billion water package will appear on the Nov. 4 ballot as Proposition 1. In August, both Democrats and Republicans voted nearly unanimously to put the water bond on the ballot. Prop. 1 has backing from Governor Jerry Brown and the legislature, as well as agricultural and conservation groups. The allocation of the funding is as follows: $2.7 billion for water storage, potentially for new reservoirs $900 million for groundwater cleanup and monitoring $725 million for water recycling projects $1.5 billion for watershed restoration programs, such as increasing river flows for wildlife $200 million for storm water capture projects $395 million for statewide flood management, including delta flood protection projects * The state anticipates it would cost $360 million annually over 40 years to pay off the bond debt. The $1.5 billion for watershed restoration programs could be a potential funding opportunity for the District. Overall, the bond money is not tied to specific projects and deliberately left vague so the projects would go through a public competitive grant process. This was likely a reaction to the previous $11.1 billion measure which was seen as too “pork” laden. The vagueness also enables more entities to support the measure than will actually see any financial benefit from the final funding allocations. If the water bond passes, expect intense lobbying efforts over how the funds are spent. Beside the Governor, and Senators Dianne Feinstein and Barbara Boxer, supporters include: The Nature Conservancy, Audubon California, Natural Resources Defense Council, California League of Conservation Voters, Association of California Water Agencies, League of Cities and California State Association of Counties. Opponents include: Center for Biological Diversity, Friends of the River, San Francisco Baykeeper and Restore the Delta. Staff Recommendation: Watch 2. Proposition 48 – Referendum on Indian Gambling Prop. 48 asks voters to approve or reject a deal signed by the Governor and passed by the state legislature that would allow the North Fork Rancheria of Mono Indians to build a casino on a 305 acre plot of land about 30 miles northwest of Fresno. In 2005, the North Fork Rancheria of Mono Indians submitted a request to the federal government to acquire and put into trust about 305 acres of land in Madera County along Highway 99 for the purpose of establishing a casino with up to 2,000 slot machines. In 2011, the Federal government determined this would be in the best interest of the tribe and would not hurt the surrounding communities. The California Legislature passed AB 277, which approved the North Fork compact, as well as a compact with the Wiyot Tribe. The Wiyot compact does not allow the tribe to operate a casino, but allows the tribe to receive a portion of the revenue generated by North Fork's casino. Governor Jerry Brown signed the bill in July 2013. The Federal government issued final approval for the Wiyot compact in September 2013 and the North Fork compact in October 2013. A “yes” vote on Prop. 48 would allow the casino development to move forward. Governor Brown is a supporter. Opponents of the measure argue Indian gaming should be only allowed on tribal reservation land. The 305 acre property is nearly 40 miles from the North Fork Rancheria’s reservation, leading to accusations of “reservation shopping.” The tribe claims this land historically served as part of their reservation in the 1850’s. The U.S. Department of Interior (DoI) agreed and determined the North Fork Rancheria tribe has a historical connection to the proposed gaming site. Opponents include Senator Dianne Feinstein, other casino-owning tribes – including Table Mountain Rancheria whose casino is about 25 miles from the proposed North Fork site. A major funder of the opposition is New York-based Brigade Capital Management, an investment firm that backs the Chukchansi Gold Resort and Casino, another Indian Casino near the North Fork site. Among the opponents are Citizens for a Sustainable Point Molate. The relevancy to the District is a successful “reservation shopping” effort precedent could be made here which could renew efforts for a casino at Point Molate. Staff recommendation: Watch 3. Legislative Wrap up Advocate Doug Houston will provide a report about the end of the legislative session in Sacramento – including enactment of SB 1183 the District sponsored effort to authorize the collection of a vehicle registration surcharge for bicycle infrastructure purposes. 4. Measure T- Dublin Open Space Initiative Measure T on the Nov. 4 ballot puts the future of Doolan Canyon before Dublin voters, who will decide whether the city should annex the canyon. A yes vote opens the door to development; a no vote leaves Doolan outside city boundaries as the last bit of open space between Dublin and Livermore. The Dublin City Council voted unanimously in June to exclude Doolan Canyon from the city’s urban growth limit, leaving it as unincorporated agricultural open space. Developers, however, moved forward with Measure T which is meant to confuse voters and to nullify the City Council adopted urban limit line. Opponents include every Dublin city councilmember and planning commissioner, the Dublin Unified School District, the Dublin San Ramon Services District Board members, Tri-Valley Conservancy, Save Mount Diablo, the Sierra Club, Greenbelt Alliance, the Ohlone Audubon Society and the California Native Plant Society. The District’s Doolan Canyon Preserve is adjacent to the proposed development site. Staff believe the existing urban growth limit is appropriate and consistent with District efforts to develop a positive park experience at Doolan Canyon. Staff recommendation: Oppose 5. Other issues II. FEDERAL LEGISLATION / ISSUES A. NEW – N/A B. ISSUES 1. Land and Water Conservation Fund – competitive grant application update The District has a $500,000 grant request before the National Park Service to help create the first staging area for Concord Hills Regional Park. The project would develop the 587 acres of the Alaimo property the District already owns off of Kirker Pass Road. Additional information about the application is included as attachments. Staff will provide an update about the grant application. 2. Other Issues III.

    Pension Fund Leaders Term Corporate Board Diversification ‘Unacceptably Slow,’ Call for Increased Attention from Investors, Corporate Boards

    FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE PR16:21 Contact: Marc Lifsher June 1, 2016 [email protected] 916-653-2995 Pension Fund Leaders Term Corporate Board Diversification ‘Unacceptably Slow,’ Call for Increased Attention From Investors, Corporate Boards California State Treasurer John Chiang joins group of fiduciaries from funds with more than $1 trillion under management SACRAMENTO – California State Treasurer John Chiang today joined a group of state and local officials who contend that corporate boards have been too slow to diversify their ranks and that institutional investors should increase their focus on board diversity as a corporate governance priority. The joint statement emphasizes that racial and LGBT diversity as well as gender diversity are critical dimensions of effective board composition and performance. “There is broad agreement that a diverse corporate board is good for business,” Treasurer Chiang said. “Boards with directors, who possess a wide range of skills and experiences, are better positioned to oversee company strategy, risk mitigation and management performance.” Statistics show that board diversification has been slow—or has even regressed. White directors hold 85 percent of the board seats at the largest 200 S&P 500 companies, and the percentage of those boards with exclusively white directors has increased over the last decade. Men occupy 80 percent of all S&P 500 board seats. It is also estimated that there are fewer than 10 openly lesbian, gay, bisexual, or transgender directors among Fortune 500 companies. The 14 co-signers, many of them longtime leaders on the issue of board diversity, are fiduciaries for pension funds responsible for the retirement security of six million participants and with more than $1 trillion in assets under management.

    Cornered: Trump Escalates Shutdown Crisis Stephen Collinson CNN, January 7, 2019

    Cornered: Trump escalates shutdown crisis Stephen Collinson CNN, January 7, 2019 Washington (CNN) — Donald Trump is threatening to burst out of his dead end on the government shutdown by wielding sweeping presidential power to declare a national emergency to bypass Congress and build his border wall. Trump's gambit comes as House Speaker Nancy Pelosi gears up to pile political pressure on the GOP this week with a set of bills designed to open shuttered agencies and show that Democrats can provide credible government. But since the Republican-led Senate will only act on a deal that Trump will sign, the parties remain as estranged as ever as the shutdown heads into a third week with hundreds of thousands of government workers unpaid. "We're looking at a national emergency because we have a national emergency -- just read the papers," Trump told reporters at the White House on Sunday. Trump's threat is a characteristic move from a President who often tries to escape a crisis by igniting an even bigger controversy, hoping to throw his enemies off balance and disguise his own vulnerable position. But such a declaration could ignite a legal and political firestorm if he goes ahead, escalating the bitter showdown over the wall and his hardline immigration policies into a constitutional duel over executive power. Talks over the weekend involving congressional staffers and led by Vice President Mike Pence failed to make meaningful progress toward ending the standoff. Trump is demanding more than $5 billion in wall funding before agreeing to reopen the government. Democrats have offered about $1.5 billion for border security, but no taxpayer dollars for a wall, which the President promised Mexico would pay for.

While other commentators have questioneD the racial implications of welfare reform as they affect Black families, the Dis- criminatory animus behind efforts to kick immigrant families off the rolls has yet to be explored.

  • How Corporate Boards Can Combat Sexual Harassment

    How Corporate Boards Can Combat Sexual Harassment

    How Corporate Boards Can Combat Sexual Harassment March 2018 HOW CORPORATE BOARDS CAN COMBAT SEXUAL HARASSMENT Recommendations and Resources for Directors and Investors Prepared by Rosemary Lally and Brandon Whitehill 1 How Corporate Boards Can Combat Sexual Harassment Foreword Allegations of sexual harassment have profound repercussions for companies and their shareholders. Operations become disrupted when top executives are forced out. The company’s reputation suffers and morale slumps. Management and the board may face legal charges, and the financial costs can be severe. In fiscal years 2010–2016, U.S. employers paid out nearly $300 million to employees who alleged sex-based harassment through the Equal Employment Opportunity Commission’s (EEOC) administrative enforcement pre-litigation process. More recently, the board of 21st Century Fox agreed to a $90 million settlement with shareholders who alleged in a lawsuit that directors failed to rein in senior executives who sexually harassed female employees. Allegations of sexual harassment and mishandling those allegations can clearly affect the value of a company. Privately-owned Weinstein Co. is planning to file for bankruptcy as of February 2018, less than six months after The New York Times and The New Yorker reported multiple allegations of sexual harassment against then co-chairman Harvey Weinstein. Hits to the value of privately-owned Uber in 2017 reflected concerns of sexual harassment and the complicity of human resources (HR) and top executives. The company belatedly set up a hotline for complaints, and tips resulted in the termination of more than 20 employees. Shares of Wynn Resorts saw a $3 billion drop in market value in the two days following the Wall Street Journal’s report of allegations of sexual misconduct by chief executive Steve Wynn, and as of one month later Wynn’s share price had not recovered.
