Supervisor Bruce Kranz feels that it is more appropriate to have the applications for revenue sharing funds be reviewed and recommended by a committee of area citizens rather than himself so he has delegated to the District 5 Benefit Fund Committee the task of selecting appropriate projects for the award of funds. Projects recommended by the committee will be voted on and awarded by a majority vote of the Placer County Board of Supervisors. In approving the revenue sharing contributions, the Placer County Board of Supervisors finds that each and every approved contribution serves a public purpose by promoting the general welfare of the County and its inhabitants therefore a benefit results to the County.
The Committee meets quarterly, and reviews and makes recommendations to the Board of Supervisors on requests for funding. A competed Application must be returned to the Board of Supervisors prior to the scheduled Committee meeting to be considered. There are Establishment and Funding Guidelines that will be used in determining the qualification of the applications received.
