Transition timing issues will leave District 4 in Contra Costa County without a Supervisor for about 30 days starting on December 4th.
That’s the day Supervisor Mark DeSaulnier will be sworn in as the Assembly member representing the 11th District. However, his successor, Concord Mayor Susan Bonilla will not be sworn in as Supervisor until the first week in January.
Governor Schwarzenegger could always appoint Susan to finish the current term but apparently the amount of paperwork required isn’t worth it for anyone. Probably safer to have a quiet holiday anyway.
