ISSUE
Section 9.08.010 of the District Code requires that the Board of Directors adopt an uncodified ordinance
to establish or amend Central San's standard specifications. A public hearing was set to consider this
matter at this meeting, but it is being continued to the next meeting.
BACKGROUND
At the June 18, 2020 meeting, the Board authorized setting a public hearing for this meeting to consider
updating Central San's Standard Specifications for Design and Construction, which were last updated in
2014. Since that time, for reasons unrelated to this matter, it was deemed appropriate to continue the

public hearing to July 16, 2020 at 1:30 p.m.
ALTERNATIVES/CONSIDERATIONS
The Board could decline to continue the public hearing, which would result in the 2014 edition of the
standard specifications continuing to be enforced. However, this is not recommended since it is important
that the most current materials, methods, and practice be covered by a Board-established specifications
document.
FINANCIAL IMPACTS
None by this action.
COMMUNITY OUTREACH
Staff has reached out to all affected contractors and other parties who use the District's standard
specifications to let them know of this proposed continuance.
COMMITTEE RECOMMENDATION
Continuance of the public hearing was not discussed with a Board Committee.
RECOMMENDED BOARD ACTION
Continue public hearing originally scheduled for July 2, 2020, to the July 16, 2020 Board meeting at 1:30
p.m. to receive comments on adopting an uncodified ordinance to establish the "CCCSD Standard
Specifications for Design and Construction, 2020 Edition" as Central San's standard specifications, in
accordance with District Code Section 9.08.010.
