In response to the passing of California Sportfishing Protection Alliance Executive Director Bill Jennings, San Joaquin County Board of Supervisors Chairman Chuck Winn released the following statement:

STOCKTON – On Tuesday, the San Joaquin County Board of Supervisors unanimously approved Olivia Hale as the new Registrar of Voters (ROV) to oversee local elections. Ms. Hale previously served as the Assistant ROV prior to the unexpected and tragic passing of the previous ROV, Heather Ditty.

(STOCKTON, CA) The San Joaquin County Board of Supervisors is pleased to announce the appointment of Fritz Buchman to lead the County's Department of Public Works. The Department serves the unincorporated County's essential needs in the areas of roads, bridges, utilities, solid waste and channel maintenance for its residents, as well as for those who work and do business with the County.

On June 23, 2022, the San Joaquin County Board of Supervisors unanimously approved a $2.18 billion structurally-balanced budget for Fiscal Year 2022-2023. This reflects a $90.2 million decrease from the previous year, primarily due to one-time funding programmed in 2021-2022 including transfers of prior-year fund balance to reserves. The Approved Budget has been carefully designed to serve the public interest, while at the same time remain fiscally sound. It is structurally balanced and provides resources for the Board’s top priorities, fully funding current departmental staffing levels and, where appropriate, augments staffing to address critical operational needs.
