approved — Pass
Staff memo
EXECUTIVE SUMMARY:
Attached for the Board's review and approval is Contract Change Order (CCO) 1 for the subject project.
Paint on the existing bridge railing was found to contain lead and other heavy metals requiring that a Lead Compliance Plan be prepared, per contract specifications, to handle, store, transport and dispose of debris produced when the existing paint is disturbed.
Biological monitoring survey prior to the demolition of existing bridge led to the discovery of an active pacific-slope flycatcher (Empidonax difficilis) nest, under the bridge, containing two (2) chicks. Consultation with the California Department of Fish & Wildlife (CDFW), as required by the Streambed Alteration Agreement, resulted in establishment of a 100-foot non-disturbance buffer zone around the nest where no construction activity would be permitted until the chicks had fledged. As a result, all construction activities were halted effective July 11, 2018.
On July 25, 2018, a subsequent biological monitoring survey confirmed that the nest was no longer active; however, it led to the discovery of approximately fifteen (15) bats (Myotis sp.) and one (1) big brown bat (Eptesicus fuscus) roosting in a crevice under the existing bridge deck. CDFW required that a Bat Exclusion Plan be submitted and then implemented upon approval.
Subsequent to the discovery of the bats, but prior to the implementation of the Bat Exclusion Plan, a mandatory evacuation order for the Mendocino Complex Fire was issued, which continued the work stoppage through August 12, 2018. After the mandatory evacuation order for the Mendocino Complex Fire was lifted for the project area, the Bat Exclusion Plan was implemented and construction activities resumed.
CDFW Streambed Alteration Agreement requires that all in-channel activities be completed by October 15. Therefore, the construction schedule needs to be accelerated in order to make up for the lost time due to the shut-downs for nesting birds, roosting bats, and the fire evacuation.
Contract Change Order No. 1 addresses the costs associated with the Lead Compliance Plan, the Bat Exclusion Plan, and acceleration of the construction schedule. These items resulted in an increase of $139,276.00 to the original contract amount of $1,264.590.47 for a new contract amount of $1,403,866.47. Caltrans has concurred that the costs are reasonable and eligible for reimbursement. The County has requested additional funding for the project to offset the increased costs.
This project is fully funded by the Federal Highway Administration (FHWA) thru Federal Highway Bridge Program (HBP) funds and California Toll Credit funds. Therefore, this project is 100% federally and state funded thru construction.
RECOMMENDATION
Staff recommends approval by the Board of Supervisors of CCO 1 and that the Board authorize the Chair to execute said CCO for an increase of $139,276.00 and a revised contract amount of $1,403,866.47.

6. Approval of the Consent Agenda
6.1(a) Adopt Resolution Establishing Salaries and Benefits for Management Employees for the Period from July 1, 2018 to June 30, 2019; (b) Adopt Resolution Establishing Salaries and Benefits for Employees Assigned to the Confidential Unit, Section A, for July 1, 2018 to June 30, 2019; and (c) Adopt Resolution Establishing Salaries and Benefits for Employees Assigned to the Confidential Unit, Section B, for July 1, 2018 to June 30, 2019
Resolution
passed on consent
Staff memo
Staff is recommending your Board approve these three MOU's which, with just one exception, are unchanged from prior year other than extension of the effective dates.
The change recommended is in the Management MOU - a new Section 5.4 is added to make it possible for management employees to earn straight-time overtime (OT) pay when working beyond 40 hours per week as Disaster Service Workers (DSW's). Such OT would require authorization by Board Resolution. As your Board is aware, County employees have worked tirelessly through repeated disasters. Non-management employees earn OT or comp-time (at time and a half) for hours worked in excess of 40 as DSW's. But there has been no way to compensate management for their extraordinary service during times of disaster. Adding this provision to the Management MOU would make straight-time OT possible for future events - and would also enable potential claiming of state and federal funding sources in disaster.

6.2Adopt Resolution Amending the County of Lake’s Classification Plan for the Classification of Chief Deputy District Attorney Investigator
Resolution
passed on consent
Staff memo
EXECUTIVE SUMMARY:
Until recently, Sheriff's Management and the sole Chief Deputy District Attorney Investigator position were a part of our labor Unit 7, with salaries and benefits defined by Management Resolution. However, with the recent formation of the Lake County Sheriff Management Association (LCSMA) Unit 17, the old Unit 7 has been rendered defunct, necessitating that the Chief Deputy District Attorney Investigator position be moved to the Management Unit 1, which also includes other law enforcement management positions, such as the Chief Probation Officer. Approval of this Resolution will facilitate that movement. There is no change in salary and benefits for the affected position.

Staff memo
EXECUTIVE SUMMARY:
I would like to respectfully request Board approval to close all five Social Services facilities to the public (including protective services staff that will remain on call and available) on Thursday October 4th, 2018 from the hours of noon - 5:00pm.
Social Services is housed in five locations around the lake making joint gatherings difficult to accomplish without locating an alternative venue large enough to accommodate 250+ staff members simultaneously, therefore, we will hold the meeting at a local park. Due to ongoing interface with the public at all locations during regular work hours, it will not be possible to make this opportunity available for the entire staff and remain open to the public.
This four-hour event will include information sharing, team building exercises, and employee appreciation for the monumental work done by the DSS staff as Disaster Services Workers in the Evacuation Shelters, Emergency Operations Center and at the Local Assistance Center and equally, by those covering for them, to ensure the public was served without interruption, during the recent wildfires. The event will also include lunch (subsidized by utilizing E.A.T.S. funds).
Thank you for your consideration in this matter.

EXECUTIVE SUMMARY:
A wildland fire known as the Pawnee Fire began in Lake County on June 23, 2018, originating in the Spring Valley area of Clearlake Oaks, CA, forcing area-wide evacuations, destroying multiple structures and as of this writing, burning 8,000+ acres.
As a result of the occurrence of the Pawnee Fire, a local health emergency was proclaimed by the Public Health Officer, Dr. Sara Goldgraben on June 25, 2018. Your Board must now continue the existence of the local health emergency.
Because, as the result of a schedule conflict, I am unable to attend the Board of Supervisors session in person, this memo serves as my formal recommendation to continue the Public Health Proclamation.
Lake County Health Services Department Director, Denise Pomeroy, and Environmental Health Director, Jasjit Kang, will be available to field questions on the status of the incident and clean-up activities

Staff memo
California Health and Safety Code section 101040 authorizes the local health officer to take any preventive measures that may be necessary to protect and preserve public health from any public hazard during an emergency. The Health Officer of Lake County finds that the Mendocino Complex Fire that started in Mendocino County on July 27, 2018, and spread to Lake County on July 28, 2018 meet the criteria for a Public Health Proclamation. The concurrent fire events have created an imminent threat to public health in Lake County in the form of severely compromised air quality, potential risk to drinking water supply, and potential for contaminated debris from household hazardous waste and materials and structural debris resulting from the potential destruction of structures and this hazardous waste debris poses a substantial present or potential hazard to human health and the environment unless its removal and disposal is performed in a manner that will protect the public health and safety.

I. EXECUTIVE SUMMARY
The applicant is requesting approval for a six (6) year time extension for a Subdivision Extension of Time (SDX 17-04) for previously approved Tentative Merger and Re-subdivision Map (MRS 06-01) known as Kaylee Court. The Planning Commission recommended the six (6) year extension on August 9, 2018.
Background and Previous Actions
On January 25, 2007, the Planning Commission approved a Rezone from "R1-RD-F2-B5" to "R1" and a Tentative Merger and Re-subdivision Map (MRS 06-01) of three existing lots and the re-subdivision of those lots to create twelve lots on the corner of Konocti Road and Vista Estate Drive. The Planning Commission found that Initial Study (IS 06-86) for the project parcel would not have significant impact on the environment and recommended the adoption a Mitigated Negative Declaration to the Board of Supervisors.
The January 25, 2007 Planning Commission approval included a requirement for the installation of curb, gutter and sidewalk along Konocti Road. The applicant had also applied for a Minor Modification to the condition requiring the curbs, gutters and sidewalks, however Planning Commission denied the applicants' Modification request, which would have allowed alternative pedestrian and drainage improvements in lieu of curb, gutter and sidewalk along Konocti Road.
On February 7, 2007, the applicant filed an Appeal to Board of Supervisors (AB 07-01) to appeal the Planning Commission decision to deny the alternative pedestrian and drainage improvements in lieu of curb, gutter and sidewalk along Konocti Road
On June 12, 2007, the Board of Supervisors approved a rezone of this property to from "R1-RD-F2-B5" to "R1".
On September 18, 2007 the Board of Supervisor approved the applicant's appeal (AB 07-01) and allowed alternative pedestrian and drainage improvements in lieu of curb, gutter and sidewalk along Konocti Road, along with recommendation of the Planning Department regarding sidewalks along the Northwest property line. This included a modification of original Condition A-1.
The original subdivision had a two-year approval time-frame. However the subdivision was then extended through a series of State-initiated actions, including SB 1185, and AB 333, 116, and 1303; the extended subdivision was set to expire on January 25, 2018. The applicant then applied for this extension on November 20, 2017; this extension application further extended the project to allow for the two required public hearings to occur. The new expiration date of the subdivision will be January 25, 2024 if the full 6 year extension is granted. The applicant would then be unable to apply for any further extensions.
On August 9, 2018, the Planning Commission recommended that the Board of Supervisors grant a six (6) year extension to the Kaylee Court subdivision, the maximum time-frame allowed under the California Subdivision Map Act.

II. PROJECT ANALYSIS
General Plan Conformance
The land use designation on the project parcels is Low Density Residential (LDR). The purpose of Low Density Residential is establish areas suitable for single-family residences (attached or detached) at a relatively low density. This designation is appropriate where the traditional neighborhood character of single family units prevail and where the level of services, including roads, shopping and recreation does not justify higher densities.
Tentative Merger and Re-subdivision Map (MRS 06-01) of three (3) lots and the re-subdivision of the three (3) lots to create twelve (12) lots would allow the development of single family residents in close proximity to downtown Kelseyville, which in turn offers employment and recreational opportunities.
Zoning Ordinance Conformance
The Tentative Merger and Re-Subdivision Map is located within the "R1" Single-Family Residential Zoning District. The purpose of the "R1" Zoning is to establish areas for individual residential dwellings at relatively low densities where the traditional neighborhood character of single-family units prevails.
The project known as Kaylee Court (Tentative Merger and Re-Subdivision) was approved by the Planning Commission on January 25, 2007 and the tentative map was set to expire on January 25, 2018. On November 20, 2017, the applicant submitted a Subdivision Map Extension Request to the Community Development Department.
Area Plan Conformance
The Kelseyville Area Plan's objective is to provide guidance regarding the long-term growth and development of the Kelseyville, Finley and Big Valley areas and on other surrounding rural lands. The Area Plan is a tool by which greater planning detail is provided for the Kelseyville Area.
Area Plan conformance was determined during the original review and approval process.
Subdivision Map Act
Since approval on January 25, 2007 a number of state laws have extended the tentative map to January 25, 2018. On November 20, 2017, the applicant submitted a Subdivision Extension Request to the Community Development Department. The extension application did not specify the amount of extension time sought. The Planning Commission is recommending a six (6) year extension be granted.
III. ENVIRONMENTAL REVIEW
On January 25, 2007, the Planning Commission approved the Tentative Merger Re-subdivision Map (MRS 06-01), with a Mitigated Negative Declaration based on Initial Study (06-86). There have been no changes in circumstances that would warrant further CEQA review or evaluation.
IV. CONDITIONS OF APPROVAL
The original Conditions of Approval (Attachments 3A and 3B) are associated with the original approval. To date, none of these conditions have been met, and most must be met before the final map can be recorded for Kaylee Court Subdivision.
V. FISCAL IMPACT: Budgeted X Not Budgeted _ None _
VI. FISCAL IMPACT (Narrative): Action taken by the Board will have no fiscal impact on the County.
VII. STAFFING IMPACT (if applicable): N/A
..Recommended Action
VIII. RECOMMENDATION
The Planning Commission recommends that the Board of Supervisors approve the extension with the following findings:
A. That the previously approved mitigated negative declaration meets the requirements of Section 15162(a) of the State CEQA Guidelines, and that no additional environmental review need be prepared, with the following findings:
1. There has been no change in the project that would create new significant environmental impacts.
2. There has been no substantial change in circumstances resulting in new significant environmental impacts.
3. No new information of substantial importance to the project has become available.
B. Recommend that the Board of Supervisors approve a six-year extension of time with the following findings:
1. The tentative parcel map is consistent with the Lake County General Plan, Kelseyville Area Plan and Zoning Ordinance.
2. The time extension request is consistent with the Lake County Subdivision Ordinance.
3. There has been no substantial change in circumstances resulting in new significant environmental impacts.
4. There has been no substantial change in the physical suitability for the type of development and proposed density.
5. This project remains compatible with the neighboring land uses in this vicinity.
6. That the six year extension is consistent with the State Subdivision Map Act.

7.610:00 A.M. - Public Hearing to Consider Accepting the Community Development Block Grant funded Homelessness Study
Public Hearing
Adopted
Staff memo
EXECUTIVE SUMMARY:
On April 3, 2012, your Board approved an application for CDBG funding, which included the preparation of two Planning and Technical Assistance studies. On December 21, 2012, the grant was approved as CDBG Grant #12-CDBG-8395, and on June 27, 2016, Amendment One was approved by CDBG to include a Planning and Technical Assistance (PTA) Homelessness Study. Symmetric Solutions was engaged to complete a comprehensive homeless study for the County of Lake.
The Homelessness Study meets the CDBG national objective and eligible activity program requirements because it provides information to assist in homeless prevention and rehousing planning. In addition, implementation of a homeless prevention plan would benefit low/mod income persons.
In order to close out the contract with the consultant, a public hearing must be held. The purpose of this hearing is to review the performance of the grant activity and to solicit citizen input regarding the outcome and accomplishments of the funding received under this contract.

7.710:15 A.M. - PUBLIC HEARING - (Continued from September 18, 2018) Consideration of the Final Recommended Budget for Fiscal Year 2018/2019 for the County of Lake and Special Districts Governed by the Board of Supervisors

Staff memo
I am pleased to present, for your consideration, the FY 2018-19 Final Recommended Budget. While the State's economic environment has improved from the time of the Great Recession, Lake County's is still severely challenged fiscally as a result of slow recovery from the recession and the unprecedented series of disasters including:
� Rocky Fire - 2015
� Jerusalem Fire - 2015
� Valley Fire - 2015
� Clayton Fire - 2016
� Winter Storm Event of 2017
� Sulphur Fire - 2017
� Pawnee Fire - 2018
� River Fire - 2018
� Ranch Fire - 2018
The County budget is also constrained by ten (10) years of stagnate revenue and the mandated increases in retirement contributions and minimum wage rates which will surpass entry level salaries and must be addressed. Consistent with recent budgets, the FY 2018-19 budget provides very little additional discretionary revenue to support new positions or new initiatives. In fact, General Fund appropriations reflect only a 3/10ths of 1% increase over the prior year. Consequently, the net County cost of General Fund budgets remains relatively unchanged from prior year(s). The cost of any new General Fund positions were, therefore, absorbed within previous year's funding levels.
While the near-term outlook may be appear bleak, the budget reflects focus on long-term solutions, addressing both budgetary and staffing requirements by investing in operational efficiencies and replenishing reserves. In order to strengthen revenue, the budget continues to emphasize the ongoing administration of the Master Fee Schedule and provides for continuation of the recently implemented grant-writing positon.
The budget provides for consultant support to identify opportunities for improved operational efficiencies in departments. The total classification and compensation study is also expected to contribute to this goal. Another essential component to enhancing operational efficiency is to invest in upgraded technological systems through our Technology Modernization Reserve.
In addition to strengthening revenue streams and identifying operational efficiencies, planning for the future also necessitates addressing future increases in the cost of retirement contributions. Although the exact fund balance is still pending at this time, our high number of vacant positions is likely to provide sufficient unassigned fund balance carryover to provide additional funding to the Pension Stabilization Reserve. While recently mandated increases in retirement contributions have been fiscally challenging, the required contributions will start increasing at an otherwise unsupportable rate beginning in FY 2019-20. Setting aside available funding now in the Pension Stabilization Reserve reflects your Board's commitment to protecting employee pensions in the years to come. Available funding for this purpose will be reflected in the mid-year budget revision.
As required by law, the Recommended Final Budget is balanced, meaning that there is sufficient revenue to support recommended appropriations. Like the FY 2017-18 Adopted Budget, the FY 2018-19 Final Recommended Budget is not structurally balanced, meaning that it reflects the use of approximately $750,000 of unreserved fund balance carryover to support on-going operational costs in the General Fund. However, consistent with your Board's commitment to incrementally reduce reliance on such one-time funds, the amount of unreserved fund balance carryover used to balance the FY 2018-19 budget is less than the amount required to balance the FY 2017-18 budget.
In the face of such unprecedented challenges, County staff continue to reflect extraordinary dedication to providing public programs and services, despite diminishing operational budgets and employee recruitment and retention issues. However, the challenges we face in the years to come are significant. I am, nonetheless, confident that with your Board's thoughtful direction, and through the efforts of your dedicated Department Heads and staff, we can confront this fiscal year with positive momentum, a time of opportunity as well as exploration of new ways of doing business.
FISCAL IMPACT (Narrative):
Your approval of this Recommended Final Budget will enable the County to meet its statutory obligations and continue operations for FY 2018-19.
..Recommended Action
RECOMMENDED ACTION:
1) Adopt the Resolution Adopting the Budget for Fiscal Year 2018-19 as detailed in the attached, incorporating any changes desired by your Board following budget hearings.
2) Adopt the Resolution Establishing New Classifications, the Effective Date Thereof and Amending the Position Allocation Chart for Fiscal Year 2018-19 to Conform to the Final Recommended Budget.
3) Adopt the Resolution Cancelling General Reserves for the FY 2018-19 Final Recommended Budget.
4) Approve Continuation of the Informal Hiring Freeze for General Fund departments, delegating authority to the County Administrative Officer to waive as appropriate.

8.2(Sitting as Lake County Watershed Protection District, Board of Directors) Consideration of a Resolution in Support of the California Regional Water Quality Control Board Funding and Implementing a Multi-Year Continuous Nutrient Monitoring Program to Measure Post-Fire Effects of the Mendocino Complex Fires on Clear Lake
Resolution
Adopted — Pass
Staff memo
EXECUTIVE SUMMARY:
The Mendocino Complex fires have burned 90,078 acres in the Middle Creek watershed, much of which is on federal lands owned by Bureau of Land Management and the US Forest Service. The fires removed vegetation and created conditions that will cause extreme stormwater runoff when winter rains arrive. In light of the recent fires, continuous water quality monitoring is necessary to determine phosphorus loading into Clear Lake and the effectiveness of post-fire management measures for our water resources.
Runoff from burned areas is likely to produce large phosphorus loads into Clear Lake as nutrient-rich soils are washed from the surrounding watershed. Phosphorus has been identified as contributing to significant cyanobacteria blooms that have created cyanotoxins impacting water supplies and water recreation. Phosphorus inputs are also regulated under the Regional Water Quality Control Board's Total Maximum Daily Load implementation plan for Clear Lake.
Since continuous monitoring collects samples throughout select storm events, it represents the most accurate method of measuring stormwater quality. There are no current plans to perform continuous monitoring of phosphorus or other water quality parameters in the watershed. Yet without accurate monitoring effectiveness of post-fire management measures can't be determined.
I recommend that our Board adopt the attached Resolution in support of the California Regional Water Quality Control Board establishing a continuous monitoring program to assess the impacts of stormwater runoff after the Mendocino Complex fires.

FROM: Douglas Gearhart, Air Pollution Control Officer
DATE: September 25, 2018
SUBJECT: Consideration of Re-Appointment of Mark Burkdoll, Public Member, to the Lake County Air Quality Management District Hearing Board for a three year term pursuant to California Health and Safety Code
EXECUTIVE SUMMARY:
Mark Burkdoll has served for the past 6 years as a Public Member on the Lake County Air Quality Management District Hearing Board. California Health & Safety Code Section 40801 requires one Legal Professional, one Professional Engineer, one Medical Professional, and two Public Members be represented on the Hearing Board.
Mr. Burkdoll has a desire to make a contribution to the community and assist in protecting our air quality and has agreed to continue to serve on the Hearing Board and we are appreciative.
The Hearing Board has not met frequently in the past few years; previously the Hearing Board has met up to 8 times a year. The hearing process is both legalistic and technical in nature. Continuing Hearing Board members, as has been the case for the present Hearing Board, has helped greatly in making the process work smoothly and in the public's interest. Because of infrequent meetings, the advantages of having experienced Hearing Board members, and the fact that Mr. Burkdoll has indicated his willingness to continue, we ask that you re-appoint him.
Staff believes the LCAQMD is fortunate to have Members with such strong credentials, history, and unique understanding of our community and environmental matters and are willing to continue to serve on the Hearing Board.

8.4Consideration of a Resolution to Declare Certain County Real Property as Surplus Property and to Declare the Intention to Authorize Conveyance to the Adjoining Landowner
Resolution
continued
Staff memo
At the request of Supervisor Brown, the above-referenced resolution is presented for your Board's consideration.
The real property which is the subject of this item is a relatively small and landlocked parcel acquired by the County in 1999. It is my understanding that this property presents no economic or other advantage to the County and is not, standing alone, a property that can be developed. It would appear then, the only ostensible value this property would have is to an adjoining landowner. Here, the landowner is Sheku Management, LLC, the owner of that real property commonly known as the Konocti Harbor Resort.
Given the circumstances, it appears that the subject property is of negligible value to the County and there is no present use made by the County of this property and no indication that any future use could be made.
By the adoption of the resolution presented, your Board would determine the subject property to be surplus and would further determine it is your intention, subject to the conditions enumerated in that document, to convey that surplus property to the adjoining landowner.
If this meets with the approval of your Board, the resolution may be offered for passage.
