Staff memo
Executive Summary
This item is being submitted as an "extra" agenda item. The justification for this request to consider an item not on the posted agenda is as follows:
� The need to take action came to the attention of this department subsequent to the posting of the current agenda.
The Department was notified late Friday by CalFire that the deadline for completing all grant paperwork had been moved from June 1J1h to June 10th. The notification from the
State was received after the agenda for today's meeting was already released to the public.
� There is a need to take immediate action before the next available agenda.
This Resolution authorizes the County Administrative Officer, or her designee, to sign the
Agreement with the State of California for this particular grant. The Resolution will be an attachment to the Agreement, which has a deadline of Friday, June 10th. Our Agreement will not be considered complete without the Resolution, and if we do not meet the deadline we risk losing the funding.
Staff requests that the Board of Supervisors concur that justification exists to consider this for an extra agenda item.
In November 2021, your Board authorized the submittal of an application for funding for a grant opportunity through the California Fire Safe Council called the 21 CALFIRE Evacuation Route Planning and Development Grant Program. The program provides financial assistance for entities to complete wildfire evacuation route projects. Eligible projects include evacuation route planning, implementation, public education, construction, signage, maintenance, and related activities. Staff submitted an application to perform evacuation route planning for communities along the Soda Bay Corridor between Kelseyville Riviera and the community of Soda Bay, and we were recently informed that our project had been selected for funding.
Today's item is intended for your Board to adopt a resolution that authorizes the County Administrative Officer, or her designee, to sign the Agreement with the State for the project. A copy of the Agreement and the Resolution are attached.

This proclamation Designates the Month of June 2022 as LGBTQ+ Pride Month
BOARD OF SUPERVISORS,
COUNTY OF LAKE, STATE OF CALIFORNIA
Proclamation
DESIGNATING THE MONTH OF JUNE 2022, AS
LGBTQ+ PRIDE MONTH
WHEREAS, our nation was founded on the principle of equal rights for all people, but the fulfillment of this promise has been long in coming for many Americans. Some of the most inspiring moments in our history have arisen from the various civil rights movements that have brought one group after another from the margins to the mainstream of American society; and
WHEREAS, in the movement toward equal rights for lesbian, gay, bisexual and transgender (LGBTQ+) people, a historic turning point occurred on June 28, 1969, in New York City, with the onset of the Stonewall Riots. During these riots, LGBTQ+ citizens rose up and resisted police harassment that arose out of discriminatory criminal laws that have since been declared unconstitutional. In the four decades since, civil rights for LGBTQ+ people have grown substantially, and LGBTQ+ pride celebrations have taken place around the country every June to commemorate the beginning of the Stonewall Riots; and
WHEREAS, California has been a leader in advancing the civil rights of its LGBTQ+ citizens. And while further progress is needed, it is important to recognize and celebrate the substantial gains that have been achieved; and
WHEREAS, LGBTQ+ residents in Lake County represent our families, our friends, our neighbors, our teachers, our employees and our community leaders. Across all religions, races, and communities there are LGBTQ+ people helping our nation to become a more perfect union in reaching our ideals proclaimed in our Declaration of Independence that all "people" are created equal and therefore deserve to be embraced and treated as equals.
NOW, THEREFORE, BE IT PROCLAIMED the Board of Supervisors of the County of Lake does hereby proclaim June 2022 as "LGBTQ+ Pride Month" in Lake County and calls upon its residents to eliminate prejudice everywhere it exists and celebrate the diversity of our community.
PASSED AND ADOPTED this 7th day of June, 2022.

This will provide enough funding to support the placement of individuals currently at Willow Glen Care Center through the close of the Fiscal year.

Staff memo
Executive Summary
Before your Board is a Participation Agreement with the California Mental Health Services Authority (CalMHSA) for the provision of services and supports through the Behavioral Health Quality Improvement Program. The purpose of this PA is to support LCBHS with implementing the many changes required by the California Department of Health Care Services' (DHCS) California Advancing and Innovating Medi-Cal (CalAIM) initiative.
CalAIM's behavioral health proposal initiates a fundamental shift in how beneficiaries access Specialty Mental Health Services as well as Substance Use Disorder Services. It aligns the financing structure of behavioral health with that of physical health, which provides flexibility to innovate, and enter value-based payment arrangements that improve quality and access to care. The reforms of CalAIM simplify administration of, eligibility for, and access to integrated behavioral health care.
To this end, CalMHSA has worked diligently in partnership with DHCS to guide and shape the rollout of CalAIM for Mental Health Plans. CalMHSA provided counties with a Behavioral Health Quality Improvement Project (BHQIP) Implementation Plan and specifically tailored that plan for counties participating in the Semi-Statewide Electronic Health Record project. In order to support counties with the implementation of changes required by CalAIM, DHCS launched the BHQIP incentive program which provides financial incentives to counties meeting CalAIM benchmarks. LCBHS received $250,000.00 of startup funding at the end of 2021 and will receive another $102,319.00 before the close of this fiscal year. Following this, LCBHS is eligible to receive another $151,137.00 in FY 2022-23 and $117,720.00 in FY 2023-24. Lake must demonstrate successful completion of activities outlined in the BHQIP Implementation Plan to receive these funds. LCBHS proposes to use these funds to pay for services from CalMHSA that will bring LCHBS into compliance with CalAIM.

Lake County Behavioral Health Services has been offered the opportunity to go live as a pilot County, as part of a phased implementation, beginning January 1, 2023. Work to begin the migration will commence immediately following execution of the Participation Agreement.
This PA includes start up and migration costs of $642,564.70 through the end of FY 2022-23. Thereafter, the regular subscription and support fee is approximately $102,000.00. This is in comparison to the current contract with Cerner for the administration of the Anasazi E.H.R. and to Kingsview Professional Services for the required technical support of Anasazi which together amount to $409,781.00 annually. Thus, this is a remarkable opportunity not only for cost savings but also to join a groundbreaking project to elevate the work of Counties across California.

5.12Appoint Staff Services Analyst, Senior, Lorraine “Rainy” Grafton to serve as Interim Health Services Program Manager effective June 1, 2022 per Lake County Personnel Rule 1604.7, Section F
Action Item
passed on consent
Staff memo
Executive Summary
Please accept this memorandum as the Health Department's request for approval to appoint Rainy Grafton to the interim position of Health Services Program Manager. This request is a result of staffing changes needed to maintain department operations, due to the Director of Nursing position vacancy.
On May 27, 2022, our County Human Resources Director approved the above class assignment of current Health Services Program Manager, Iyesha Miller to Interim Deputy Director. Ms. Miller's assignment as Interim Deputy will serve as an under-fill to the vacant Director of Nursing allocation. This Interim assignment will allow Ms. Miller to provide technical support, and administrative oversight to department clinical programs, ensuring continuity of services, and grant compliance.
Ms. Miller's interim assignment has now created a vacant Health Services Program Manager position, which is also essential to the operations of the department non-clinical programs. Appointing Ms. Grafton to this position will ensure that critical tasks, program compliance, and staff oversight will be completed.
Director Samac has reviewed Ms. Grafton's qualifications and has confirmed that she qualifies for this interim management assignment.
Ms. Grafton is currently a Staff Services Analyst, Senior, assigned to the Health Services Accreditation program. Ms. Grafton has worked closely with Ms. Miller since her arrival to the department in 2019, and is very well versed in all non-clinical programs. Ms. Grafton is well received by all staff, and is an integral part of the Health Services team.
This interim appointment will be active no longer than six months. During this time the department will be working with WBCP recruitment agency to fill our vacant Director of Nursing position.
While we recruit, as per Lake County Personnel Rule 1604.7, I am requesting to appoint Staff Services Analyst, Senior, Lorraine "Rainy" Grafton as Interim Health Services Programs Manager, effective June 1, 2021. Because the Staff Services Analyst, Senior class is non-exempt and Health Services Programs Manager is exempt, as per Lake County Personnel Rule 1604.7, Section F, Board approval is needed for this interim appointment.
1604.7 WORKING ABOVE CLASSIFICATION
A. Department Heads may authorize their employees to work above their classification with the advanced approval of the Human Resources Director. The Human Resources Director may approve initial above class assignments for a period not to exceed 90 days. Extensions to such assignments require additional review and approval by the Human Resources Director every 30 days. The position in which the employee will be working above class must be vacant and the employee working above class must meet the minimum job requirements for the vacant position.
B. Employees who are duly authorized, directed or assigned to work above their classification shall be compensated at the base salary rate of the position to which assigned; or 5% above their normal salary rate, whichever is higher.
C. Pay for working above class shall commence on the 16th consecutive workday of such assignment or the 16th day accumulated in any 60 calendar day period. Employees working above class who are away on leave, paid or unpaid, for a period of seven (7) or more days in a pay period shall not receive above class pay for any of the days that they were absent in that pay period. Employees must requalify for pay for working above class if they are on leave, paid or unpaid, for 60 or more consecutive calendar days.
D. Above class assignments shall be authorized for full work days only.
E. The employee's anniversary date shall not change as a result of this assignment.
F. Department Heads shall not authorize a non-exempt staff member to work above class in an exempt service classification. If the exempt service position allocation is vacant the Department Head may make a provisional appointment. In circumstances where the position is vacant but the exempt service allocation is not vacant, or when an immediate recruitment to fill a vacant exempt service allocation is not in the Department's best interests, the Department Head may request that the Board of Supervisors make an Interim Appointment to a non-elective exempt service classification.

Agreement

Staff memo
Executive Summary
The County of Lake began contracting with the Lake County Office of Education for Family Wraparound Services on February 1, 2022. The Board of Supervisors approved an Agreement at that time. This is a continuation of that Agreement, simply updating the Term. The following is a brief description of the program:
Family Wraparound, or Wrap, services is a strengths-based planning process that occurs in a team setting to engage with children, youth, and their families. Wrap shifts focus away from a traditional service-driven, problem-based approach of care and instead follows a strengths-based, needs-driven approach. The intent is to build on individual and family strengths to help families achieve positive goals and improve well-being. Wrap is also a team-driven process. From the start, a child and family team is formed and works directly with the family as they identify their own needs and strengths. The team develops a service plan that describes specific strategies for meeting the needs identified by the family. The service plan is individualized, with strategies that reflect the child and family's culture and preferences. Family Wrap is intended to allow children to live and grow up in a safe, stable, permanent family environment. For youth involved in, or at risk of being involved in, the criminal justice system, the Wraparound process can:
* Enhance strengths by creating a strength-based intervention plan with a child and family team;
* Promote youth and parent involvement with family voice, choice, and preference;
* Use community-based services;
* Create independence and stability;
* Provide services that fit a child and family's identified needs, culture, and preferences;
* Create one plan to coordinate responses in all life domains; and
* Focus on achieving positive goals.
Recommended Action
Approve Agreement between the County of Lake and the Lake County Office of Education for Probation Family Services, for the period of July 1, 2022 through June 30, 2023 for an amount not to exceed $75,000 and authorize the Chair to sign.

5.16Approve Contract Between the County of Lake and Redwood Community Services, Inc. for the Provision of SB163 Wraparound Services in the Amount of $864,000, from July 1, 2021 to August 31, 2022, and Authorize the Chair to Sign.
Agreement
passed on consent
Staff memo
Executive Summary
The County of Lake has contracted with Redwood Community Services, Inc. (RCS) for many years to provide SB163 Wraparound services to qualified families. Lake County Wraparound Program participants referred by the Interagency Placement Committee will receive services including comprehensive assessment, individualized service plans, and assistance with accessing resources. Contractor will also be responsible for maintaining statistics and data to monitor participants' progress in the program. This data will be presented to Social Services (DSS) through monthly, quarterly, and bi-annually reports. Due to multiple changes to the State Code, this agreement was delayed in renewal in order to update the Scope of Services to match with the new Wraparound guidelines. In end of September 2021, ACL 21-116 was distributed by the State which detailed the Family First Prevention Services Act (FFPSA)'s requirements. The ACL outlined that by October of 2021, each county child welfare agency, probation department, and mental health plan (MHP), in consultation with the local interagency leadership team, will jointly provide, arrange for, or ensure the provision of at least six months of post-discharge aftercare services to be provided to children discharged from a placement in an Short Term Residential Therapeutic Program (STRTP) or from an out-of-state residential facility to a family-based setting. The ACL gave counties two phases to implement these changes. Phase One included an initial implementation of aftercare services within each county by leveraging current Wraparound programs and other resources provided by counties, STRTPs, and other providers. Lake County partners met several times and were able to complete phase one, timely. Phase Two includes implementation of high-fidelity Wraparound requirements by October 1, 2022. These expansive changes paired with the allocation information not being released until January of 2022 prevented DSS from accurately drafting a new contract.
DSS intended to continue these services on a month-to-month basis while the new Contract was drafted and a Request for Proposals (RFP) could be issued. Unfortunately, DSS was notified that the Auditor's office would only pay the first quarter of invoices on the month-to-month clause in the contract. This contract is necessary to pay the invoices for services continued by RCS, with a short extension into next fiscal year to allow time to implement the new contract without interrupting services. The RFP closed earlier this month and RCS was the only entity to submit a bid.
Recommended Action
Approve Contract between the County of Lake and Redwood Community Services, Inc. for the Provision of SB163 Wraparound Services in the Amount of $864,000, from July 1, 2021 to August 31, 2022, and authorize the Chair to sign.

Agreement
passed on consent
Staff memo
Executive Summary
For multiple years now, Lake County Social Services has partnered with Lake Family Resource Center (LFRC) to provide necessary services and resources through the Cal-Learn program to parenting and pregnant teens who qualify for CalWORKs, to help assist and encourage high school graduation or the equivalent. Cal-Learn clients who are under age 19, have not graduated from high school, are not in foster care, and live in the same household as their child are required to participate in Cal-Learn. Services offered to Cal-Learn participants are: intensive case management, supportive services including but not limited to, childcare, transportation, and education expenses, and bonus/sanctions to encourage satisfactory education results.
DSS issued a Request for Proposals (RFP) which closed in January of 2022. Lake Family Resource Center was the only entity to submit a bid, and therefore they were selected to operate the Cal-Learn program. LFRC will continue to provide services aiming to meet the overall goal that teen parents will graduate from high school or an equivalent with skills and knowledge to move toward self-sufficiency, including demonstrating nurturing parenting, a healthy lifestyle, and family stability.
DSS intended to continue services month to month while preparing the RFP, however, we were notified mid-year that payments can only be issued month to month for the first quarter after a contract expires. This delay combined with our Contractor's critically low administrative staff numbers are the reasons this Contract is coming to your Board late.
Recommended Action
Approve Contract between the County of Lake and Lake Family Resource Center for Cal-Learn Services in the amount of $50,000 per Fiscal Year from July 1, 2021 to June 30, 2024, and authorize the Chair to sign.

5.18Approve Request to Waive 900 Hour Limit for Extra-Help Water Resources Ramp Monitors Wayne Moore, Tom Pinkston, Donald Purdy, and ramp monitor coordinators Edwin Scotton and Robert Valdez.
Action Item
passed on consent
Staff memo
Executive Summary
The Water Resources Department is requesting the approval to exceed the 900 hour extra-help limit for several ramp monitors Wayne Moore, Tom Pinkston, and Donald Purdy, and the two ramp monitor coordinators Edwin Scotton and Robert Valdez. Funds for this position are allocated under Budget Unit 8109, and sourced through several State Division of Boating and Waterways Quagga Mussel Prevention grants, and a federal grant through the US Fish and Wildlife Service. Between these current grants, there are sufficient funds to cover these requests. If this request is approved, hours are not to exceed 999.
Water Resources Extra-Help ramp staff have been working this year since the season started in early March, and have been working additional hours to maintain ramp coverage to fulfill hours not filled due to five vacant ramp monitor positions. March through June is the busiest season for ramp monitoring as this period is when the majority of fishing tournaments occur, and more so this year with the expectation the drought-mediated low-water levels later in the year will prevent some lake access. We have recently hired and trained two new ramp monitors, and two more are starting this month.
Thank you for your consideration on waiving the 900-hour limit for Extra-Help Water Resources ramp monitoring staff for Wayne Moore, Tom Pinkston, and Donald Purdy, and the two ramp monitor coordinators Edwin Scotton and Robert Valdez.

Approve Request to Waive 900 Hour Limit for Extra-Help Water Resources Ramp Monitors Wayne Moore, Tom Pinkston, Donald Purdy, and ramp monitor coordinators Edwin Scotton and Robert Valdez.
5.19Approve Agreement between County of Lake and Clean Lakes, Inc. for the Aquatic Vegetation Management Program For Fiscal Year 2021-2022
Agreement
passed on consent
Staff memo
Executive Summary
In 2011, the Water Resources Department identified areas around Clear Lake to be managed for nuisance aquatic plant growth. The total surface area of the lake treated annually for aquatic plants has never exceeded 260 acres (0.6% of Clear Lake's total surface area) and varies annually according to peak aquatic plant growth. Treatment areas are selected based on several conditions, including: density of shoreline occupation, presence of especially troublesome invasive plants, habitat value, and historic recreational uses.
During winter 2022, The County of Lake Water Resources Department distributed a Request for Proposals (RFP) to identify the best qualified aquatic plant contractors to conduct lake-wide management services in Clear Lake. The RFP was distributed directly to four APM companies and through the Aquatic Plant Management Society. Only one company responded with a full proposal to the RFP; Clean Lakes, Inc. Therefore, this company was selected as the preferred contractor to complete the Aquatic Plant Management at Public Access and High Use Recreational Areas in Clear Lake, Lake County, CA project.
The proposed contractor, Clean Lakes Inc., utilizes GPS-based hydro acoustic mapping to ensure accuracy of application location and rate, and an efficacy map of before and after treatment. Over the last ten years, Water Resources Staff has worked closely with Clean Lakes Inc. to evaluate performance, efficacy of treatment and compliance with the State's and County's Aquatic Pesticide NPDES permit and County's own permitting program, including all monitoring requirements.
For the last ten years, the County Board of Supervisors has set aside funding for the abatement of nuisance aquatic plant in selected high-traffic, public use areas of Clear Lake as part of an overall strategic invasive species management program. The contract total for Fiscal Year 2021-2022 is $$225,000 and is funded with Geothermal and Transient Occupancy Tax money. At direction of the board, this contract will remain on a five-year basis, with annual amendment based on the available funds for that years' treatment.

Executive Summary
Staff is requesting the Board of Supervisors, acting as the Directors of the Lake County Watershed Protection District, authorize the Deputy Water Resources Director to accept and execute The USDA Natural Resources Conservation Service National Water Quality Initiative (NRCS NWQI) Planning Grant in an amount not to exceed $50,000 (Exhibit A). Staff is also requesting the Deputy Water Resource Director to enter into a service agreement (Exhibit B) with the non-profit California Rural Water Association (CRWA) to complete the tasks and deliverables of the awarded grant (Exhibit C). This item is not expected to be controversial; therefore we are requesting this item to be placed on the Consent Agenda.
The NRCS NWQI is a planning project for the Clear Lake Basin, to identify source water protections needed to improve water quality, with a focus on agriculture, commercial and private, remediation and mitigation measures. This project is part of the Federal National Water Quality Initiative Program and is the first one of its kind in place within California.
This project will culminate in a Source Water Protection Plan, that will allow the District, and partners, to apply for significant Federal USDA NRCS implementation funds to install sediment phosphorus reduction measures on the landscape, usually through incentive based mitigation programs, to reduce pollution and nutrient runoff into Creeks, Streams, and Clear Lake.
Staff is requesting that the Board waive the competitive bidding process and approve a contract with the Non-Profit CRWA to assist in the execution of this project. In accordance with Lake County Code Section 38.2, it is not in the public's interest to competitively bid this project, and specifically staff identifies that competitive bidding would not result in an economic benefit to the County.
There are several reasons for this bidding waiver request including;
1) The CRWA is concurrently contracted with Clear Lake Drinking Water Purveyors to complete a sanitary survey, so to maximize efforts and knowledge acquisition, it's financially responsible and logical that the same agency complete both projects simultaneously,
2) The CRWA is contributing significant technical labor services (~$39,200) on this project on a "pro-bono" basis, reducing the cost directed to the grant and at no cost to the District and,
3) While CRWA is a non-profit organization, charged with helping rural areas improve drinking water quality and quantity, other available and qualified companies, consultants, or organizations are not, and therefore it's not financially logical to go through the bid process for this project that will not result in an economic savings.
This project has written support from the Blue Ribbon Committee for the Rehabilitation of Clear Lake, Big Valley Rancheria Water District, Golden State Water District, Crescent Bay Improvement Company, Lower Lake County Waterworks District #1, and the Clear Lake Environmental Research Center.
Recommended Action
Adopt Resolution authorizing the County of Lake Water Resources Deputy Director to (a) accept and execute The USDA Natural Resources Conservation Service National Water Quality Initiative (NRCS NWQI) Planning Grant and Agreement Award for $50,000, (b) Waive the formal bidding process, pursuant to Lake County Code Section 38.2, as it is not in the public interest due to the unique nature of the goods and services, and (c) Approve and sign the service agreement with California Rural Water Agency to fulfill the NRCS NWQI grant deliverables.

BOARD OF SUPERVISORS,
COUNTY OF LAKE, STATE OF CALIFORNIA
Proclamation
DESIGNATING THE MONTH OF JUNE 2022, AS
LGBTQ+ PRIDE MONTH
WHEREAS, our nation was founded on the principle of equal rights for all people, but the fulfillment of this promise has been long in coming for many Americans. Some of the most inspiring moments in our history have arisen from the various civil rights movements that have brought one group after another from the margins to the mainstream of American society; and
WHEREAS, in the movement toward equal rights for lesbian, gay, bisexual and transgender (LGBTQ+) people, a historic turning point occurred on June 28, 1969, in New York City, with the onset of the Stonewall Riots. During these riots, LGBTQ+ citizens rose up and resisted police harassment that arose out of discriminatory criminal laws that have since been declared unconstitutional. In the four decades since, civil rights for LGBTQ+ people have grown substantially, and LGBTQ+ pride celebrations have taken place around the country every June to commemorate the beginning of the Stonewall Riots; and
WHEREAS, California has been a leader in advancing the civil rights of its LGBTQ+ citizens. And while further progress is needed, it is important to recognize and celebrate the substantial gains that have been achieved; and
WHEREAS, LGBTQ+ residents in Lake County represent our families, our friends, our neighbors, our teachers, our employees and our community leaders. Across all religions, races, and communities there are LGBTQ+ people helping our nation to become a more perfect union in reaching our ideals proclaimed in our Declaration of Independence that all "people" are created equal and therefore deserve to be embraced and treated as equals.
NOW, THEREFORE, BE IT PROCLAIMED the Board of Supervisors of the County of Lake does hereby proclaim June 2022 as "LGBTQ+ Pride Month" in Lake County and calls upon its residents to eliminate prejudice everywhere it exists and celebrate the diversity of our community.
PASSED AND ADOPTED this 7th day of June, 2022.

Abatement Summary:
Pursuant to Lake County Code (LCC) Chapter 13, Article VI, Section 13-42.1 - Upon completion of the abatement, the Board shall hear and consider the account and proposed assessment, together with objections and protests thereto. At the conclusion of the hearing, the Board may make such modifications and revisions of the proposed account and assessment as it deems just, and may order the account and proposed assessment confirmed or denied, in whole or in part or as modified and revised. (LCC Chapter 13, Article VI, Section 13-42.1)
On January 21, 2021 during a shoreline survey of Clear Lake, the property located at 7137 E STATE HWY 20 Lucerne CA (property) was found to be in violation of the LCC and Lakebed Encroachment Lease. A violation letter was sent to the property owner on May 18, 2021.
- LCC Ch. 23-13. - Maintenance, Repair and Removal of Improvements.
- Lakebed Encroachment Lease - 13. Maintenance and Repair.
The property was an improved lot with a lakebed structure consisting of a pier and covered platform.
A Notice of Nuisance and Order to Abate (NONOTA) was issued against the property on September 28, 2021. The property owner reflected on title is Virgil and Audrey Skinner (Skinner). Notices were posted on the property and mailed to Skinner's address reflected on county records. The notices were signed for and marked as received.
Due to the fact that the legal responsible party was not able or willing to correct the violation(s), Water Resources moved forward with the abatement process.
On February 14, 2022, an inspection and abatement warrant was issued by a County of Lake Superior Judge.
On February 16, 2022, an inspection of the property was conducted to observe the extent and scope of the violations that were occurring on the property. Our contractor who responded to RFQ 21-13 provided quotes on the lakebed structure abatement.

Exhibit C - Contractor RFQ Response/Invoice
On September 15th 2021, invitation for bid number 21-13 Abatement Services for Lakebed Structures was posted on the Lake County Bids & RFPs website. All practicing local Class A Licensed Marine Contractors were contacted via phone and/or emailed about the RFQ posting. On September 25th 2021, the window for submission of questions closed. On September 27th 2021, the addendum of questions was posted on the Lake County Bids & RFPs website. On September 30th 2021, the RFQ proposal deadline was reached. The County received one bid on RFQ 21-13 from Lake Marine Construction. After speaking to other Class A Licensed Marine Contractors it was determined that re-advertising the project would not likely result in more bids. On October 15th 2021, Lake Marine Construction was awarded a contract for abatement services of lakebed structures.
On February 26, 2022, the abatement was conducted by and which Lake Marine Construction removed the dilapidated lakebed structure causing said nuisance.
