San Diego County has over 100 citizen boards, committees, commissions (BCCs) and task forces that need residents to serve as members.

There are many different types of BCCs that support the County. Some are temporary and only meet for a short time. They may help make decisions or recommendations to the Board of Supervisors on a specific topic. Others are permanent groups that were created as part of State or local law. Some of these committees have legal responsibilities such as the Property Tax Assessment Appeals Hearing Board where members serve three-year terms and make decisions regarding property values on behalf of the Board of Supervisors. There are committees that assist with everything from health issues to social issues, criminal justice, elderly, planning and land use, parks, libraries, housing, and human relations.

El Condado de San Diego cuenta con más de 100 juntas, comités, comisiones (BCCs, por sus siglas en inglés) y grupos de trabajo ciudadanos que necesitan residentes para servir como miembros.

Existen muchos tipos diferentes de BCCs que apoyan al Condado. Algunos son temporales y solo se reúnen por un corto período de tiempo. Estos pueden ayudar a tomar decisiones o hacer recomendaciones a la Junta de Supervisores sobre un tema específico. Otros son grupos permanentes que fueron creados como parte de la legislación estatal o local. Algunos de estos comités tienen responsabilidades legales, como la Junta de Audiencia de Apelaciones de Evaluación del Impuesto a la Propiedad, donde los miembros sirven términos de tres años y toman decisiones sobre el valor de las propiedades en nombre de la Junta de Supervisores.

Hay comités que ayudan con una variedad de temas, desde cuestiones de salud hasta asuntos sociales, justicia penal, personas mayores, planificación y uso de la tierra, parques, bibliotecas, vivienda y relaciones humanas.
