ABOUT THE GRANITE BAY MAC
The Granite Bay Municipal Advisory Council is comprised of volunteers, like you, from the community who take on the honor of listening to community concerns and representing those issues to their County Supervisor.
These advisory bodies create a forum for the community to voice their concerns and give formal input on projects and issues facing their local communities. Presently, there are 13 MACS that meet monthly and are comprised of a range from 5 to 7 MAC Members who are appointed by their County Supervisor.
The MAC members work closely with their County Supervisor and magnify the voices of even our most rural communities.
