§ 2.20.170. Applicability to local entities.
Any local public entity within the county may contract with the county to employ the services of a county hearing officer. The duties and responsibilities of a county hearing officer described in Government Code Sections 27721 and 27722 shall be set forth in the contract. Reimbursement to the county shall, unless otherwise specified in the contract, be made on a pro rata basis of actual cost to the county in providing the service, including salaries, benefits, overhead and any travel expense. An agency contracting with the county under this section is authorized to conduct its hearings in accordance with this chapter. If an agency has adopted its own rules of procedure, however, such rules may instead be followed.
