CALAFCO

The California Association of LAFCOs, also known as CALAFCO, was established in 1971. It currently acts as an umbrella organization that provides technical support and facilitates communication among its member LAFCOs. CALAFCO aims to coordinate LAFCO activities statewide and advocates on behalf of LAFCOs before the State Legislature and other governing bodies.

CALAFCO is governed by an Executive Board consisting of 13 LAFCO Commissioners. The board comprises four city members, four county members, three public members, and two special district members. Additionally, CALAFCO is supported by a voluntary Executive Officer, who serves as the CALAFCO Executive Director, and a legal advisor. The Executive Board and its staff volunteer their time and utilize various committees to achieve their objectives, including publishing a newsletter, organizing workshops, and hosting an annual conference.
