One of many problems with this system is that these 5 supervisors can NOT speak to each other outside of formally scheduled meetings where all are present due to the Brown Act.  While some may view that as a  positive, how do we know their aids aren't doing a lot of talknig and communicating and all kinds of stuff with all or some of them in the loop and others not?  Furthermore, can they in fact do everrything the need to do and share everything they need to share in the open meetings?

Example -  I told my supervisor about a concern withe the Real Estate Contracts in use across Monterey County that had buyers making offers and ratiifying conracts before they were given the sellers disclosure documents.   The contracts destroyed the reliance portion of the contract formation process and in fact , no contract could have been legally and properly formed with the system yet apparently it had been in play since the 1980s AND been a Real Estate Broker and Seller's dream but buyers nightmare.  

I viewed the supervisor as someone who should have or wold have cared about my concerns. When presented, i imagined he'd ask me to come into his office and explain my concerns and then share those with his 4 counter parts to get a conesnesu and how they might want to manage teh situation and/or create a countywide disclosure document requiring prroper contract formation practices. 

To my shock no sincere concern was expressed and it seemed clear that something like that is not something he could initiate as part of a motion or hearing.  It was as if it was up ot me to find the proper authorities to air my concerns and seemingly, if I wanted to make it a board matter, i was going to ahve to go down during work hours, sit in on a meeting, air my concerns and see what happened next.
