Staff memo
Executive Summary
a) 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:
This information was not available at the posting of the current agenda and it is unknown when the order window for these vehicles will close. This purchase is critical for patrol operations and if the order window closes prior to the issuance of a purchase order, we will have insufficient vehicles for the patrol staff to drive. The next agenda date is September 13, 2022 and we have been advised by the vendors the order window will be closed by this time.
This item came to my attention subsequent to the posting of the current agenda and there is a need to take action before the next agenda.
b) The Sheriff's Department is requesting your Boards' approval to purchase seven (7) 2022 Ford Explorer Police Pursuit vehicles. These vehicles will be marked patrol units and will be used in the enforcement division.
A request for bid was sent to five vendors on August 9, 2022 with bids received from the following dealers: Napa Ford Lincoln, Downtown Ford and Redwood Ford. This bid was also posted on both the County and Sheriff websites. Due to the short timeframe the vehicles are being ordered, we allowed electronic submissions. A request for this item to be heard as an emergency due to the possibility the order window will close at any time.
Please authorize the Sheriff/Coroner or his designee to issue a purchase order in an amount not to exceed $340,500 to Redwood Ford, to be paid from the Sheriff/Pursuit Vehicle replacement budget unit 2217, object code 62.74
Recommended Action
a) Approve taking the item up as an extra item as it came after the posting of the agenda and needs to be taken up before the next available agenda

Executive Summary
Lake County Behavioral Health Services has a contract with this Tribal 638 Clinic, operated by the Pinoleville Pomo Tribe, for provision of Substance use Disorder Outpatient Drug Free Services, Intensive Outpatient Treatment Services, and Narcotic Treatment Program Services. Lake County is the first Drug MediCal (DMC) Plan in California to contract with a Tribal 638 Clinic. Due to the unanticipated surge in utilization of these services, LCBHS and New Life Clinic have devised a way to eliminate the County's fiscal obligation, outlined in the addition to Exhibit B.
This contract amendment also increases the Agreement by another $838,184.00 which will ultimately be paid back by the Department of Health Care Services, with the Tribe voluntarily providing the non-federal share of cost.

Resolution
proposed on consent
Staff memo
Executive Summary
Lake County Behavioral Health Services must resolve a budget deficit to close out FY 2021-22. The deficit is the amount of $515,000.00. This deficit is solely the result of LCBHS' obligation to pay for outpatient Narcotic Treatment Program services being provided Lake County beneficiaries through a Tribal 638 Clinic called New Life. Due to issues with the Department of Health Care Services (DHCS) reimbursement system, reimbursement for these services has been delayed. Lake County Behavioral Health Services is working diligently with DHCS to resolve this reimbursement issue which has caused the deficit.
Recommended Action

Staff memo
Executive Summary
Historically, the Code Enforcement Division executed contracts with contractors for cleanup services related to nuisance abatement. Those contracts have since expired. Code Enforcement requests the approval of new contracts for two service areas 1) "Nuisance Abatement", which entails cleanup of illegal dumping and abatement of properties located within Lake County found not to be in compliance with the Lake County Code; and (2) "Road Map Task Force Specific Nuisance Abatement" which entails cleanup of illegal dumping and abatement of properties located in the area designated for the "Road Map Task Force" (Clearlake Oaks proper) found to be out of compliance with the Lake County Code.
Currently, in accordance with Lake County Code Chapter 2, Article X, also known as the purchasing ordinance, the Code Enforcement Division issued Requests for Proposal (RFP) to provide services in the two service areas mentioned above. The two RFP's are necessary as two separate nuisance abatement funds have been established for each of the before mentioned service areas.
Six proposals were received from three (3) contractors. Attached for the Board's review are six (6) contracts, two (2) contracts per contractor for the abatement services for the area located in the County and for the area designed for the "Road Map Task Force". Staff recommends approval of all six (6) contracts. Contracting with three service providers will enable us ensure a timely abatement of nuisances.
The compensation limits of the contracts are listed in the Staff Recommendation, and are based on the budgeted amounts for fiscal year 22/23 for Nuisance Abatement (County Wide) and Road Map Task Force (Clearlake Oaks). They have been amended from what was presented to the Board on the August 16, 2022 agenda. Staff has received approval from the contractors for this change, and can furnish the emails, if requested.
Recommended Action
Approve the following agreements: a) between the County of Lake and Leonard's Hauling and Tractor, for Nuisance Abatement in an amount not to exceed $50,000, and Nuisance Abatement within the Road Map Task Force area, in an amount not to exceed $67,000, and authorize the Chair to sign; b) between the County of Lake and Cook Construction and Engineering Partners for Nuisance Abatement in an amount not to exceed $50,000, and Nuisance Abatement within the Road Map Task Force area, in an amount not to exceed $67,000, and authorize the Chair to sign; and c) between the County of Lake and 360 Junk Removal and Hauling, for Nuisance Abatement in an amount not to exceed $50,000, and Nuisance Abatement within the Road Map Task Force area, in an amount not to exceed $67,000, and authorize the Chair to sign.

The adopted FY 22/23 budget for the ISF Heavy Equipment Division of the Public Works Department includes an appropriation for the replacement of one Vibratory Roller. The budgeted amounts and the authorization to purchase this piece of equipment prior to the adoption of the final County budget was approved by your Board on June 14, 2022.
The vendor (Nixon-Egli Equipment Company) for this purchase has utilized Sourcewell, previously known as the National Joint Powers Alliance (NJPA), to secure a price quotation for the roller. The replacement roller is a Hamm HD14i VV Tandem Vibratory Roller and will be purchased through Budget Unit 9908 - ISF Equipment Replacement for a total price of $83,627.50, which includes sales tax and delivery. A copy of the proposal is attached.
The use of Sourcewell meets the requirements of Ordinance #2406, Purchasing Code No. 38.4 Cooperative Purchases. As an authorized retailer of Hamm construction equipment, the vendor is granted authority to utilize pricing through their contract with Sourcewell, and their proposal reflects the Sourcewell Contract number.
Recommended Action
Staff recommends that the Board of Supervisors authorize the Public Works Director / Assistant Purchasing Agent to issue a purchase order not to exceed $83,627.50 for the purchase of a Hamm HD14i Vibratory Roller to Nixon-Egli Equipment Company

Executive Summary
Due to changing technology, our department must periodically upgrade our electronic and data equipment to keep up with the demands of the systems we are mandated to use. The computer models identified for replacement date back to 2016, and we must upgrade for security and functionality.
On August 9, 2022, the Board authorized a Purchase Order for 100 computers based on a quote from California Multiple Award Schedules (CMAS) vendor CDW-G. We are asking for an exemption from the formal bidding due to receipt of a competitive bid comparable to CDW-G. We recommend purchasing with Dell Computers directly and saving the department $24,657.88.
Recommended Action
Approve Purchase Order, Executing the Purchase of 100 Computers, from Dell, in the Amount of $78,118.28, and authorize Social Services Director to Sign a Purchase Order

Executive Summary
On August 23, 2022, your Board received a presentation regarding a grant opportunity with the California's Department of Health Care Services - Behavioral Health Continuum Infrastructure Program- Round 4 Grant to build and open up a Behavioral Health Treatment Facility for Youth in Lake County.
This grant allows for the planning and construction of facilities that provide behavioral health services to youths aged 0 through 25. The presentation also included information involving the formation of a non-profit organization titled Hope Health with goals to construct a treatment facility and provide behavioral health services to rural youth.
Your Board requested that staff complete the due diligence required to analyze risk, staff capacity and other relevant factors to determine if the County should agree to become the lead fiscal agent on this grant application. After careful review, the limited information available as to the transferability of the grant application, the lack of a draft Standard Agreement to review and the lack of staff capacity to assume grant management tasks resulted in the finding that the County should not consider assuming responsibilities of the lead fiscal agent for this application.
However, staff does recognize the need for our rural youth to receive behavioral health services and support Hope Health's commitment to that goal.
Recommended Action
Approve the support letter and authorize Chair to sign.
On motion of Supervisor Sabatier, and by vote of the Board, approved the Letter of Support for Hope Health's Grant Application and Authorized the Chair to Sign. The motion carried by the following vote:

Executive Summary
With the enactment of Senate Bill (SB) 156 in July 2021, six billion dollars ($6,000,000,000) was allocated to the California Public Utility Commission (CPUC) for broadband deployment across four program areas:
1. Middle Mile ($3.25 Billion) - state-owned and operated, open-access middle mile infrastructure.
2. Federal Funding Account (FFA/Last Mile ($2 Billion) - formula allocations calculated on a county basis to provide last mile grant funds to the designated unserved/underserved areas (Important notes: these monies, while allocated on a county basis, do not flow to the counties. Instead, they are available to providers who apply for funds and commit to delivering a minimum 100/100 service to ALL unserved/underserved addresses in the area in which they applied.)
3. Loan Loss Reserve Fund ($750 Million) - available to municipalities to serve as security against financing models that attract private investment.
4. Local Agency Technical Assistance Fund ($50 Million) - provides to eligible local agencies (including counties) a 100% of pre-deployment project costs that advance the deployment of broadband infrastructure.
The Local Agency Technical Assistance Fund (LATA) program provides 100% funding to eligible applicants for identified projects that advance the deployment of broadband infrastructure.
Counties and (other eligible entities - cities, utilities, co-ops, tribes, etc.) can apply for up to $500,000 to fund 100% of identified projects that are considered pre-deployment, i.e., not construction or equipment purchases
Applications that are submitted for $500,000 or less progress through a Ministerial Review process at the staff level. The funding is provided on a reimbursement basis and no local match is required.
Lake County is a member of the Golden State Connect Authority (GSCA) Joint Powers Authority, which was established to support and assist member counties with the advancement of "broadband for all" across rural California. In support of this mission, GSAC is supporting member counties to pursue LATA funds for pre-development costs to advance broadband deployment via the development of construction-ready network designs for priority unserved and underserved area.
Lake County's anticipated scope of work would include a feasibility study for broadband service "gaps" to identify the unserved and underserved areas of the County not covered or partially covered by existing broadband service providers, with resulting high- and low-level network designs.
To streamline and enable as many GSCA member counties as possible to take advantage of the LATA funding opportunity, GSCA has structured the grant request to minimize the impact on existing County staff capacity.
Member counties that apply for LATA funds will enter into a Memorandum of Understanding (MOU) with GSCA for the management of the grant and project development. GSCA would contract with a professional network design firm for the development of the County's network designs, oversee the development of work product, manager the grant cash flow, and provide the required grant reports to member counties for timely submittal and reimbursement.
The advantages of partnering with GSCA in pursuing LATA funding include the following:
1. County does not have to contract directly with professional network design firm(s). Instead, GSCA will enter into contracts with these firm(s) and provide project management.
2. Eliminates cash flow issues as it relates to a 100% reimbursement ONLY upon project completion. GSCA will cover the cash flow ebbs that occur until project completion.
The application portal opened August 1, 2022 and the first round of applications will be accepted in August and the second round of applications will begin in September. It is anticipated that the CPUC will review applications on a monthly basis. Once approved, the awardee has 30 days to accept the grant. If not accepted, it is deemed not approved and removed from consideration.
It is also anticipated that these funds will be exhausted quickly, so it's important to take advantage of this opportunity presented by the LATA funding to advance preparation for the deployment of broadband in Lake County.
The Resolution includes the following actions:
1. County Board of Supervisors approves the submission of a grant application to the California Public Utilities Commission with the assistance the Golden State Connect Authority to request broadband pre-deployment funding that includes a feasibility study to identify the unserved and underserved areas of Lake County resulting in a high- and low- level network design project for an amount not to exceed $500,000.
2. The County Administrative Officer or designee is hereby authorized to execute for and on behalf of the County of Lake, any supporting documents that are required and necessary for the purpose of applying for and obtaining the California Public Utilities Commission financial assistance for broadband infrastructure, including LATA grant funding, for an amount not to exceed $500,000 per fiscal year.
3. The Chair of the Board of Supervisors is authorized, upon County Counsel legal review and approval, to execute and enter into, on behalf of Lake County, a Memorandum of Understanding with GSCA (GSCA MOU) to implement any LATA grant received by Lake County in a manner consistent with the terms and conditions of LATA funding. The GSCA MOU may provide for the performance of all or any portion of the grant funded work by GSCA or GSCA's contractors and/or sub-contractors and reimbursement to GSCA for these services from Lake County's grant funds. Said execution shall be subject to ratification by the Board of Supervisors at the next regularly-scheduled meeting of the Board of Supervisors.
4. The County Administrative Officer/Purchasing Agent is authorized to execute a non- competitive "sole source" procurement behalf of the County to contract with GSCA for the performance of grant-funded services by SCA or GSCA's contractors and/or sub- contractors, if necessary and required by the LATA program or GSCA MOU.
Staff also recommends approving the letter of support to the Local Agency Technical Assistance program as submitted for your Board's consideration.
Recommended Action
Approve a) Resolution designating the Board of Supervisor's Chair and the County Administrative Officer or designee to execute documents to request and obtain funding and technical assistance for facilitating the Broadband Fiber Network Design Project in Lake County for an amount not to exceed $500,000 and b) approve the letter of support for the Local Agency Technical Assistance program and authorize Chair to sign.

7.4(a) Consideration of an Update Regarding the Technology Governance Committee (TGC); (b) Consideration of a Board Agenda Memo Template Providing Links to Resources and Requesting Information on Purchasing Policy Compliance
Action Item
Staff memo
Executive Summary
This effort was viewed as an example of how technology purchases made by one County Department may significantly impact the work of others.
If a product under consideration for purchase must integrate with processes or software maintained by other departments, Advanced Planning is required, to ensure the continuity and efficiency of all affected County business operations. Staff identifying software that could help meet a departmental business need may not be aware of all such considerations. Support from Information Technology and/or financial staff (including Administration) is frequently needed to ensure such a project is appropriately planned, solicited, procured and successfully implemented.
Departments submitting technology projects for budget approval are asked to engage a collaborative Advanced Planning process, beginning by completing the attached form:
http://lcnet.co.lake.ca.us/Assets/Intranet/Intranet+Forms/Information+Technology/AdvPlan.pdf
(intranet link, accessible only within the County network)
IT, Auditor-Controller and Administrative Office staff continue to meet, to review Advanced Planning document submittals, and support consideration of other technology-focused-and-adjacent policy and planning efforts. We are excited to support departments in looking ahead, and anticipating needs before they are so urgent solutions cannot be effectively planned.
Your Board is routinely called on to Approve Agreements for Technology purchases, and the endorsement of TGC can be a helpful support to your decision-making.
Attached, please find a new Board Memo form, which includes checkboxes for this and other purchasing considerations. Additionally links to County purchasing policies and Vision 2028 are now included. Staff recommends your Board affirm implementation of this revised form, by consensus. Additional iterations may be necessary, if your Board finds sufficient information is not being provided to support public review and your Board's needs.
Recommended Action
(a) Informational report. Consider direction to staff. (b) Affirm, by Consensus, the Board Agenda Memo Template attached.
There was Board Consensus to use the Board of Supervisors Memo Template.
