BACKGROUND:
The mission of the San Mateo County Commission on Aging (CoA) is to improve the quality of life for seniors in San Mateo County through the promotion of independence, self-sufficiency, mental and physical health, as well as community involvement.
DISCUSSION:
Aurea Cruz has been a member since June 9, 2006 and is requesting reappointment for one year, completing her 12 year service on the commission. Aurea received a master’s degree in public administration and certification as a nursing assistant. During her tenure on the Commission, Aurea has proudly served on a variety of committees and is the CoA liaison to the Commission on Disabilities. On September 12, 2017 a reappointment memo listed her term as ending in 2020. This memo reflects the correct expiration date of 2018 towards completion of her 12 years of service.
This reappointment contributes to the 2025 Shared Vision statement of a Collaborative Community. Our diverse population works well together to build strong communities, effective government and a prosperous economy, civic engagement - including voting, public service, charitable giving, volunteerism, and participation in public discussions of important issues - is uniformly high among the diverse population of San Mateo County.
FISCAL IMPACT:
None.
