What happens if the Commission decides that the Ordinance has been violated?
The Commission notifies the parties of its decision and gives them four weeks to see if the matter can be settled with the help of the staff. If so, a conciliation agreement is drawn up and signed by both parties and the Commission. If not, the matter is referred to the County Attorney to seek the approval of the Board of Supervisors to file a claim in court alleging a violation of the Ordinance by the respondent.
