| Executive Staff | Calendar | Forms | The Executive Office has overall responsibility for policy development, administration, enforcement, permit, technical, planning and public information functions and activities of the District. The Executive Office's overall mission is to support the goals of the Air District. The Air District uses a progressive approach to regulating air pollution. By adopting reasonable air quality plans and then following through with sensible regulations (sensitive to socioeconomic impacts), flexible permitting, helpful compliance assistance, and proactive enforcement, the District has one of the most responsive air programs in the nation. The Air District is governed by a 22-member Board of Directors. State law provides that the number of representatives from each county will be determined by that county's population. Under this plan, the counties of Marin, Napa, and Solano have one representative; Sonoma, and San Mateo have two representatives; San Francisco has three representatives; and Alameda, Contra Costa, and Santa Clara each have four representatives. The Boardof Directors has the authority to develop and enforce regulations for the control of air pollution within the Air District. All rules and regulations must be passed by a majority of the Directors. Public hearings are required prior to any action adopting or amending rules and regulations. The Board of Directors has 8 standing committees that assist the Air District in its mission to improve air quality.
