On this basis, the ASAB is making 3 the following recommendations to the Board of County Commissioners: • Animal Trainer/Handler position recommendation: Beth Grooms, DDS, PA who is a Certified Professional Dog Trainer. The ASAB has no back-up recommendation for this position because it does not believe any of the other applicants are qualified for the position on the basis of his or her credentials and/or certification. • Animal Advocate position recommendation: Marshall Gray,1D, given his extensive experience with animal policy and animal law. The ASAB's back-up recommendation, in the event Mr. Gray is not available, is Maureen Hoffman, MD, PhD, who has participated in the rescue activities of Independent Animal Rescue and the US Equine Rescue League and who also has decades of experience caring for and training animals. • At Large position recommendation: Caroline Green given her long term interest in animals and animal welfare in Orange County and prior involvement with the ASAB(which was cut short when she changed her residence). The ASAB's back-up recommendation, in the event Ms. Green is not available, is Maureen Brown, who has substantial experience and knowledge in local government and public administration. All of these recommendations are unanimously made by the ASAB to the BOCC. Please let me know if I or the board may be of further assistance.
