Contra Costa County has recently appointed Monica Nino as its new top executive.

Her good working relationships with San Joaquin and Stanislaus county supervisors were also a strong selling point for Contra Costa supervisors. Contra Costa County Supervisor Candace Andersen said that Nino's financial experience dealing with economic pressures related to COVID-19 treatment and care, and specifically in relation to that county's San Joaquin General Hospital, outside Stockton, was one of the main reasons why she was selected over two other finalists interviewed over the past few weeks. The Public Administrator's Office investigates and can manage the assets of people who are residents of Contra Costa County at the time of death and who die without a qualified person wanting or being able to take responsibility. The powers of the Public Administrator are set forth in the California Probate Code.
