Staff memo

Date: June 28, 2022 · From: Susan Parker, County Administration Officer

Executive Summary

After the recent review of benefits provided by the County, the Auditor Controller's Office requested that all benefits provided by the County be listed in each MOU to comply with federal and state audit requirements. The updates to the MOU's are benefits that the County has been providing for many years but were not listed in the MOU's. The Human Resources Department sent out Side Letters with the clarification requested by the Auditor's office and all labor groups approved the Side Letters. Benefits added to MOU's: Accidental Death and Dismemberment (AD&D) Insurance The County shall pay for $5,000 of AD&D insurance for all eligible employees. Section 125 Cafeteria Plan The County shall pay the cost of the administration for the Section 125 plan for eligible employees. The Section 125 Cafeteria Plan is an employer sponsored benefits plan that allows employees pay for qualified medical and child care expenses on a pre-tax basis. Employee Assistance Plan (EAP) The County shall pay the cost of the EAP plan for eligible employees. Staff recommends approving the Labor Units with a ratified formal side letter to acknowledge the benefits as required by federal and state audit requirements.

Staff memo

Date: June 28, 2022 · From: Susan Parker, County Administration Officer

Executive Summary

On June 21, 2022, your Board accepted the resignation of the Public Health Officer (PHO) Dr. Erik McLaughlin. In response to our emergent need to fill this position, staff requests that your Board waive the competitive bidding process in order to provide the State mandated services of a Public Health Officer. It has been challenging to recruit for a full time Public Health Officer (PHO) for the County of Lake. This challenge is not unique to Lake County; other counties are experiencing the same challenges due to the repercussions of the COVID-19 health pandemic and the shortage of available health professionals. Based on the responses of the PHO recruitment last year, HR contacted those firms and additional firms (6 in total) and only 1 qualified firm responded. Most firms do not have the capacity to respond as they are currently unavailable to provide the services we need. Staff requests that your Board waive the competitive bidding process pursuant to Lake County Policy and Procedures, Section 4, Consultation Selection, Subsection 4.1.4. The Board of Supervisors may waive the competitive bidding process under the following circumstances that pertain to this request: 1. A situation threatening the public health or safety when time is of the essence in obtaining consultant /contractor services. 2. A situation in which following this policy would cause an interruption of essential public services. In addition to this professional recruitment, staff will post this announcement and explore other opportunities as presented for this recruitment. Staff recommends waiving the competing bidding process for the reasons stated previously and the lack of responsive applicants and approve the agreement for Recruitment Services for the PHO with Mosaic Public Partners in the amount of $ 29,000.00.

Recommended Action

(a) Waive the formal bidding process, pursuant to Lake County Policy and Procedures, Section 4, Consultation Selection, Subsection 4.1.4. (b) Approve Agreement for Recruitment Services for Lake County Public Health Officer between County of Lake and Mosaic Public Partners in the amount not to exceed $29,000, and Authorize the Chair to Sign

5.3Sitting as the Lake County Air Quality Management District Board of Directors, Approve Carl Moyer Program project funding approval for Middletown Unified School District, and authorize the APCO to sign the agreement Agreement passed on consent
Staff memo

Date: June 28, 2022 · From: Douglas Gearhart, Air Pollution Control Officer

Executive Summary

The District received $175,000 in Year 20, $175,000 in Year 21, and $175,000 in Year 22 Carl Moyer Program (CMP) project grant funds from the State Air Resources Board (ARB). The funding proposed herein would utilize the remaining Year 20 funds, Year 21 funds, and some of Year 22 funds. Year 20 project funding must be obligated by June 30, 2022. School Bus replacement funding is capped at $400,000.00 per diesel fueled to electric school bus replacements. District staff has been soliciting applications and providing program descriptions for a number of years, but few local projects qualify. With the passage of SB 513 in 2015, ARB was able to rewrite the guidelines for the grant program with a lower cost effectiveness limit for School Bus projects. With these new guidelines, we are able to qualify more projects and use the funds locally. Currently the Middletown Unified School District has 2 mini buses that have met all requirements to qualify for replacement with electric buses under the CMP grant program. But funds available can only support 1 bus at this time. The project proposed below has been determined to be viable and able to meet all necessary requirements of the grant program within the timeframe for this funding cycle and are recommended for approval at this time: Contract # CMP 2021-02 - MUSD Bus 16 $304,624.76 MUSD Charging Infrastructure. $29,722.00 Replacing a 2003 Thomas E-450 bus with a 2022 or 2023 Micro Bird G5 Ford 200 Battery Electric School Bus. The above project CMP 2021-02 will be funded with Year 20, Year 21, and Year 22 funds currently held by the District. Any Year 20 funds not obligated by June 30, 2022 must be returned to the state. The California Air Resources Board has requested we expedite this project to ensure funds remain local, and are not returned to the State. They have expedited this project review and approval so that we could get this project to your Board for consideration before the end of the Fiscal Year.

Recommended Action

The Board of Directors approve the project and authorize the APCO to sign a Funding Agreement between the LCAQMD and the Middletown Unified School District.

Executive Summary

5.16a) Approve Purchase of Mandated Client Services Described as After Care Services with Evolve Youth Services and Authorize Director of Social Services or her Designee to Issue a Purchase Order in an Amount not to exceed $40,860. Action Item passed on consent
Staff memo

Date: June 28, 2022 · From: Crystal Markytan, Director Lake County Social Services

Executive Summary

CWS is mandated by the federal government (AB 153) to immediately provide a minimum of 6 months of aftercare services when foster youth transition from a short-term residential treatment placement (STRTP) to a less restrictive placement. An LCDSS foster youth was transitioned from a residential placement to a resource home in Humboldt County where he is living with a half sibling. All previous placements of this youth have been unsuccessful with the exception of the high-level (STRTP) he was transitioned from. This potentially permanent placement would allow the siblings to remain together and requires the support of extensive outside services, which are available through Evolve, a non-profit organization already working with the sibling in the home. This placement was determined to be in the best interest of the aforementioned foster youth. At the time of this placement, the state had not set rates for after care services so CWS worked with the facility to develop a cost for the package of services to be delivered on a monthly basis. Once the package of services had been determined and was consistent with the State's expectation and rate system, Evolve sent an invoice for the previous seven months. Typically, the non-discretionary nature of these services billed on a monthly basis would fall far below the amount requiring BOS approval. However, due to the extenuating circumstances described above, seven months of invoices are now due which exceeds department purchasing authority limits and does require BOS approval. LCDSS anticipates additional invoices for the months of March to June 2022 in the amount not to exceed $34,000 to come before the BOS for approval in July 2022. It is the intent of LCDSS to contract with this non-profit in the next year if the intent is to continue services for this youth.

Recommended Action

a) Approve Purchase of mandated client services described as after care services with Evolve Youth Services and authorize Director of Social Services or her designee to issue a purchase order in an amount not to exceed $ 40,086.

Executive Summary

On February 26, 2019 the Board of Supervisors granted Special Districts Administrator authorization to initiate all transfers of CSA #22 Mt Hannah Water assets, liabilities and fund equity to Cobb Area County Water District. A 1977 grant deed for property transfer from the Kelseyville Lyons Club to the County of Lake contained four (4) parcels, including APN 115-003-17 and APN 030-083-360. During the process of transferring APN 115-003-17 from CSA #22 Mt Hannah Water to Cobb Area County Water District, APN 030-083-360 was inadvertently transferred. It was later discovered that there were additional assets in the form of one parcel and five easements belonging to CSA #22 Mt Hannah Water that still needed to be transferred to Cobb Area County Water District. As a result of the above discrepancy, on March 10, 2020 the Board of Supervisors granted Special Districts Administrator authorization to initiate all transfers of CSA #22 Mt Hannah Water assets, liabilities and fund equity to Cobb Area County Water District. It has now been discovered that APN 030-083-360 was inadvertently and incorrectly also transferred to Cobb Area County Water District during this process. Cobb Area County Water District has executed a quit claim deed to facilitate the return of APN 030-083-360. Attached for your consideration is a Resolution authorizing the transfer of APN 030-083-360, from Cobb Area County Water District to the County of Lake.

Recommended Action

Adopt Resolution Authorizing the Transfer of APN: 030-083-360 from Cobb Area County Water District to the County of Lake, approve the quit claim deed for APN: 030-083-360, and Authorize the Chair of the Board of Supervisors to sign the Certificate of Acceptance and record the deed, Certificate of Acceptance and Preliminary Change of Ownership Report.

Background

In 2017, after many years of advocacy by California's affordable housing proponents, the state's legislature established a permanent source of funding intended to increase the affordable housing stock in California. Revenue is collected from a fee assessed recorded real estate transactions. Effective in 2019, the California Department of Housing and Community Development (HCD) is directed to use 70 percent of collected revenue to provide financial assistance to local governments for eligible housing-related projects and programs to assist in addressing the unmet housing needs of their local communities. This program is now named the Permanent Local Housing Allocation (PLHA) program. Funding Allocations The first Notice of Funding Availability (NOFA) for the PLHA program was released by HCD in 2020, with a second NOFA release in 2021. A third NOFA is anticipated in June 2022. These NOFAs provided a formula-based noncompetitive allocation for each California local government, to be accessed over a five-year period through a formal application process with certain threshold requirements listed in the attached draft Housing Plan. Local governments may transfer some or all of their allocations to other local governments of a local or regional housing trust fund, also to be used for an eligible purpose. Additional funding is available through a competitive application. Lake County's noncompetitive, or formula, PLHA allocations authorized through the respective Notice of Funding Availability were $241,741 for 2019-2020 Year One and $360,728 for 2020/2021 Year Two. The current estimate for the total five-year formula commitment is $1,450,450. Local governments must also, in general, submit a formal application to utilize its first three years of noncompetitive funding allocations prior to December 31, 2022. Otherwise the Year One 2020 allocation will be lost. The same can happen with Year Two funding if the local government does not submit a complete application requesting that allocation by the end of calendar year 2023. Eligible Activities PHLA funds may be utilized for a variety of programs or projects benefitting Lake County low-income households. Rental and homeownership, new construction and rehabilitation, emergency shelters and services, are among the allowed uses. Details on these eligible activities are provided in the attached draft Five-Year Plan. Housing Plan Requirements The Board of Supervisors must adopt a Five-Year Plan, after consideration of any public comments received at a regular meeting, for use of any PHLA funds either obtained through formula allocation or accessed by competitive applications, The Plan must include the following information (detailed within the Plan): 1. How funds will be allocated and used for eligible activities. 2. How the county will prioritize increasing housing for households with incomes at or below 60 percent of Area Median Income. 3. A description of how the Plan is consistent with the programs set forth in the county's adopted Housing Element. 4. A Board of Supervisors resolution stating the Plan was adopted after public review and comment. Selected Collier Avenue Project The Board of Supervisors in August 2019, after soliciting public comment, adopted its No Place Like Home Housing Plan which prioritized several urgent affordable housing needs. Subsequently the county submitted to HCD in early 2022 a noncompetitive allocation application and a competitive funding application, respectively, for a long-planned permanent supportive multifamily housing project for the chronically homeless mentally ill. The NPLH funding was committed to the proposed Collier Avenue housing project, as it is currently known, after release of a formal Request for Proposals in accordance with the county's adopted procurement policy and the NPLH requirements. The Rural Communities Housing Development Corporation (RCHDC), a Mendocino County-based nonprofit affordable housing developer and management company with a long history in Lake County, was the sole responding entity. RCHDC proposed the development of a multifamily housing project on a site is had acquired from the county many years before for a different project that, for several reasons, never broke ground. This Five-Year Plan builds on that adopted No Place Like Home Housing Plan and its stated objective of developing and supporting that permanent supportive multifamily housing project for the chronically homeless mentally ill residents of Lake County. The attached Permanent Local Housing Allocation Five-Year Housing Plan addresses both the currently available $602,469 funding (also to be committed by BOS resolution to the RCHDC Collier Avenue project as discussed) as well as the anticipated $847,981 funding remaining for Years Three, Four and Five.

Recommended Action

Adopt Resolution of the Lake County Board of Supervisors Authorizing the Application for the Permanent Local Housing Allocation Program for the Collier Avenue Apartment Project.

Executive Summary

Lake County moved to an Accela Civic Platform for permit tracking in 2016. In 2016, Accela provided the Community Development Department (Department) with 10 user licenses. In 2021, the Department upscaled to 23 user licenses. Currently, the Department has a need to upscale the Civic Platform Permitting Licenses to an additional 8 users due to the increase of staff members. This upscale would provide CDD with 31 user licenses. In addition, CDD is requesting the approval for further support of True Point Solutions professional services in the amount of $18,600 for a total of 120 hours of support services. Attached are the following support documents: 1) Original Accela contract; 2) True Point Solutions contract; and 3) the proposed contracts for approval of either a one-year, or three years of extended Accela Civic Platform Services.

Recommended Action

It is my recommendation that BOS approves the Accela Civic Platform Software and the True Point Accela Platform Services

Executive Summary

The State of California's Clean California Initiative is a multi-year, $1.1 billion program to increase litter abatement efforts by Caltrans and local entities statewide, and to support state and local beautification projects. In December 2021 Caltrans issued a call for projects for the Clean California Local Grant Program, which is the competitive local agency component of the initiative and is intended to support litter abatement and beautification projects in public spaces. In February 2022 the Public Services Department submitted an application for the "Lake County Beautification Initiative Project", and in March 2022 staff was notified of a $1.3 million project award. The project consists of a countywide marketing outreach and educational campaign, as well as amenities at fifteen parks countywide such as restrooms, public art, shade structures, trees, drinking fountains, benches, trash/recycling receptacles, and litter abatement signs. In May 2022 Caltrans provided County staff with the attached grant agreement. In accordance with the conditions of the grant, staff has prepared the attached resolution which delegates authority to the Public Services Director to execute the grant agreement and to sign and submit all grant-related amendments, reports, and payment requests. With your Board's approval of the resolution the Public Services Director will sign the agreement, and upon Caltrans' countersigning Public Services will begin reimbursable project work.
