Staff Report
SAN BERNARDINO — The San Bernardino County Board of Supervisors today (June 4) voted to approve the creation of two new Municipal Advisory Committees.
One MAC will include the communities of Lucerne Valley and Johnson Valley. The other will include the communities within the Morongo Basin.
According to a county press release, these are two large regional MACs that Supervisor James Ramos thought would be the best way to serve many of the distinct Third District desert communities. Supervisor Ramos drew these MAC boundaries after holding discussions with community leaders.
Within each MAC, the Supervisor plans to appoint smaller community advisory committees to further focus on the individual needs of each community.
The Lucerne Valley and Johnson Valley MAC will consist of seven seats and the Morongo Basin MAC will consist of nine members.
Interested candidates should contact the Supervisor by email at SupervisorRamos@sbcounty.gov.
