3. Follow-up to February 16, 2017 Board Self-Assessment Workshop:
a. Receive oral report from Consultant Brent Ives
Mr. Ives said the Board made good progress at the February 16, 2017
Workshop to more clearly define the Board Committee process and staff
has taken the Board's input and prepared proposed revisions to the
following policies to memorialize that input into various Committee
protocols.
b. Consider proposed changes to BP 313 -- Standing committee charters to
incorporate committee protocols
Mr. fres reviewed the proposed General committee Protocols and
Guidelines for Standing Committees that staff developed for incorporation
into BP 013 and discussed each one with the Committee. several
modifications to the proposed changes were suggested. With respect to
the use of standings items on Committee agendas, it was the consensus
that the approach outlined by District Counsel Kent Alm in his April 113
2017 memorandum to the Real Estate, Environmental& Planning
Committee should be incorporated into the Protocols.
C. Consider proposed changes to BP 023 — Board Ethics and conduct
With regard to Section B.1.(d) regarding ex parte communications,
Member Williams asked if all Board Members have been following the
policy and if the wording conflicted with the violation of Policy section at
the end of the Policy.
Mr. loves suggested that the ex parte communications section be
developed a bit more to perhaps cover the issue of when a Board Member
is and is not commissioned to speak on behalf of Central San. For those
tunes when they do, he suggested the possibility of developing a form for
Board Members to use for reporting out at Board meetings any ex parte
communications.
d. Consider proposed changes to Section 4 of Board Member Handbook
Due to time constraints, the committee did not review the proposed
changes at this meeting.
COMMITTEE ACTION: Received the report, and reviewed and recommended
additional changes to BP 011 and BP 023. Directed staff to bring the
revisions back to the Committee for further review at a future meeting.

b, Mr. Leilaer stated that on Friday, April 21, 2017, Central San experienced
a sudden, unexpected network outage. Most system servers were offline
and unavailable, including file, print and email servers. The SCADA
(supervisory control and data acquisition) systems were unaffected.
Mr. Huie announced that all systems are now fully operational and all lost
data has been fully recovered. The likely cause appears to .be a single
piece of equipment which caused a power draw on some of the other
equipment which internally caused other issues. The system powered
down on its awn. New computer storage has.been installed and staff
