BACKGROUND AND DISCUSSION
To ensure requests for future agenda items are addressed in a timely manner, and all Board members can provide feedback before significant County resources are invested in such requests, staff is seeking direction from the Board on the following requests made at the May 16, 2023, Board meeting.
The request is to review recent reports prepared by Napa Valley COAD (Community Organizations Active in Disaster) and Live Healthy Napa Valley that provide recommendations for improving access to the Spanish speaking community. The reports are attached.
Today’s presentation provides the Board an opportunity to discuss the request and to provide staff direction.
