5.5(a) 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unique nature of goods or service (b) Approve Agreement between the County of Lake and Kofile for the preservation of historical documents required for business in the amount of $34,762.56 and authorize Assessor-Recorder to sign Agreement
Agreement
passed on consent
Staff memo
I am requesting the ability to proceed with services provided by Kofile without going through the competitive bidding process. The services in questions are to rebind, deacidify and scan, if needed, historic documents within the Recorder's office. Kofile is the only vendor that we are aware that provides these services. Kofile is the vendor that has restored and rebound other documents in our office.
I am requesting that GC code, Chapt. 2, Art. X, 38.2 be applied using provision 2 and 3 of the code. This code states "Not in the public interest. Notwithstanding the provisions of Section 2-39, competitive bidding is not required when the Board of Supervisors determines that competitive bidding would not be in the public's interest because of any of the following:
(1) A state of emergency,
(2) The unique nature of the goods or services precludes competitive bidding,
(3) A determination that competitive bidding would produce no economic benefit to the County.
I believe that competitive bidding would not result in a different outcome and if another vendor was selected that end product would differ and possibly not have the same utility value needed in the office. These books and bindings are unique in nature and standard book binding would be insufficient due to the requirement to deacidify some or all the documents. I feel no economic benefit would exist proceeding with another vendor and would possible cause productive time loss to run the Request for Proposal process.
Please approve my request.
FISCAL IMPACT (Narrative): $34,762.56 Cost spread between fiscal years 2018-19 and 2019-20.
STAFFING IMPACT (if applicable): The cost will be paid out of fund 183. Fund 183 is set aside to modernize the Recorder's office. There is no General Fund impact.
..Recommended Action
RECOMMENDED ACTION:
(a) 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unique nature of goods or service (b) Approve Agreement between the County of Lake and Kofile for the preservation of historical documents required for business in the amount of $34,762.56 and authorize Assessor-Recorder to sign Agreement.

TO: Board of Supervisors
FROM: Jan Coppinger, Administrator
Scott Harter, Deputy Administrator
DATE: April 9, 2019
SUBJECT: Authorize the advanced step hiring of Daniel Curtis as an Electrical-Mechanical Technician II, Step 5.
EXECUTIVE SUMMARY: Daniel Curtis was employed with Lake County Special Districts between December 20, 2010 and March 28, 2017. Daniel worked his way from a Utility Worker I to an EMT I, Step 5 at the time of his separation. Daniel left County employment on good terms looking to further his career with a nearby jurisdiction.
Special Districts Utility Area 3 has struggled to retain an EMT in Daniel's position since Daniel left and recently had a 15 year EMT move to another jurisdiction as well. That leaves the area with two vacancies and no EMT on staff. The Department in conjunction with HR recently completed a recruitment to fill those vacancies and Daniel is the top qualified candidate of the list.
Daniel's salary as an EMT I, Step 5 is equivalent to an EMT II, Step 3 with the primary distinction being the EMT II must possess a D2 Distribution Operator Certificate from the State Water Board. Daniel is now certified as a D2 Distribution Operator and is qualified for the EMT II position. In addition to the D2 Operator Certificate Daniel has become certified by the State as a T2 Water Treatment Plant Operator and a Grade III Wastewater Treatment Plant Operator. These additional certificates along with two additional years' experience easily qualify Daniel as an EMT II, Step 5. Daniel also brings with him a working knowledge of our systems which is critical now that our long time EMT has left. Daniel would be a tremendously valuable resource for the department and staff recommends the authorization of advanced step hiring at EMT II, Step 5 for him.

Clerk’s notes: There was no public input.
6.39:30 A.M. - Consideration of Responses to the Bureau of Indian Affairs Invitation to Provide Comment on the Big Valley Band of Pomo Indians’ Land Acquisition Applications
Action Item
continued to a future date
Staff memo
On March 4, 2019, the County received a Notice from the Bureau of Indian Affairs (Bureau) inviting comment on the Big Valley Band of Pomo Indians' (Tribe) application to move seven parcels into trust. As staff began researching this matter, new information was learned regarding the Tribe's recently opened cannabis dispensary along with an expansion of cultivation and manufacturing programs. The Bureau requested information on property taxes, assessments, government services provided, and potential zoning consistency. The accompanying information indicates that the Secretary of the Interior will consider factors such as the purpose for which the land will be used; the impacts on local government of removing said properties from the tax rolls; and jurisdictional problems and potential conflicts of land use that may arise.
On March 20, 2019, the Bureau responded to County staff's request for a 30 day extension from the March 26th deadline and granted it in part, with a new deadline of April 18, 2019. On March 22, 2019, the County received another notice for fourteen parcels to be moved into trust, also with an April 18th deadline to respond to Bureau's request for comment. During staff's continued research, it became clear that beyond the expansion of the Tribe's cannabis industries, there are other potential inconsistencies in land use, both present and possibly future. For example, there are plans for a potential commercial center and casino on Soda Bay Road. Generally, the area in and around the Big Valley Rancheria has zoning reflecting Agricultural and Residential uses. Some of the ongoing and potential uses typically would not have been previously contemplated by County staff so the opportunity for further study would be valuable.
Due to these recent developments, these proposed comments clarify for the Bureau that staff is unable to fully and informatively respond to the Bureau's requests for information on these short timelines. Staff has highlighted the areas of concern and noted that further time would be necessary to investigate the proper tax valuations and evaluate the infrastructure of the surrounding area and what steps and costs might be necessary to accommodate potential development by the Tribe. The proposed comments give greater background detail and suggest the Bureau provide County staff the opportunity to identify topics requiring attention and work with the Tribe and other local partners to gather the necessary information.
A number of County departments came together to assist in the preparation of these responses and staff is extremely grateful to all who contributed.
