CSAC Advocacy | Reform Watch
 
In late 2009, the CSAC Board of Directors approved the Association's Reform Principles to facilitate discussions among county officials, legislators, stakeholders and the Governor with regard to recent proposals which call for government reform.  Additionally, CSAC has created a task force comprised of county supervisors to discuss the various reform proposals and how they will affect California's counties.  We created our Reform Watch Web page to provide the latest information on proposed ballot initiatives, helpful links and explanations of the various timelines and processes.  The information on this site will be updated frequently to reflect any changes as they occur.
