The Committee is requesting qualifications from independent executive recruitment firms to assist in the selection of an Executive Director for a proposed new Joint Powers Authority (JPA) which will result from a new joint powers agreement creating the Alameda County Transportation Commission (ACTC). The ACTC will result
from a merger of ACCMA and ACTIA and generally have the powers of a congestion management
agency and of ACTIA. The goal is to achieve the necessary approvals for the new JPA by July, with the
new commission launching in September of this year. The firm selected will assist in all phases of
recruitment and retention of the Executive Director, as described below in the scope of services. The Ad
Hoc Committee on the Merger is interested in a national recruitment for this position. Firms interested in
being considered for this engagement are invited to submit a statement of qualifications as further
described herein.
