Executive Summary

(include fiscal and staffing impact narrative): 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 my attention subsequent to the posting of the current agenda. There is a need to take immediate action before the next available agenda. After the posting of our February 4, 2020 agenda, in response to questions stemming from a constituent's concerns, Community Development staff advised me that building permits are required for installation of irrigation lines. I am requesting this discussion be taken up as an "extra" to ensure the constituent's project can move forward without delay. I am requesting staff provide an overview of applicable code.

Recommended Action

Discussion and possible direction to staff.

No additional funding requested — the memo's cost fields were left blank, which on this form means the item is already budgeted.

Staff memo

Date: February 4, 2020 · To: The Honorable Moke Simon, Chair, Lake County Board of Supervisors · From: Diane Fridley, Interim Registrar of Voters Carol J. Huchingson, County Administrative Officer · Subject: (a) Approve Budget Transfer and new Capital Asset in the amount of $7,500 for the purchase of a Vote-By-Mail Heavy Duty Envelope Opener; and (b) Approve the purchase of a Vote-By-Mail Heavy Duty Envelope Opener and authorize the Department Head to Sign

Executive Summary

(include fiscal and staffing impact narrative): The purchase of the new voting system for the Elections department has resulted in the ballots being larger than they were in the past. If staff uses the current envelope opener on the new ballots there is a good chance that part of the ballot will be cut off in the process. If a new envelope opener is not received in time for the March 3rd election, staff will be required to open all envelopes by hand. Funds being transferred for this purchase will be replenished during mid-year budget. The State will also be reimbursing the County 75% of the purchase price, and the revenue for this budget unit will also be adjusted during mid-year.

Recommended Action

Action Item passed on consent
Staff memo

Date: February 4, 2020 · To: The Honorable Supervisor Simon, Chair, Lake County Board of Supervisors On behalf of Lake County Sanitation Districts · From: Jan Coppinger, Special Districts Administrator · Subject: (a) Waive the competitive bidding process, pursuant to Lake County Code Section 2-38.2, based on the determination that competitive bidding would produce no economic benefit to the County; and (b) Authorize Special Districts Administrator/Assistant Purchasing Agent to issue a purchase order not to exceed $78,000 to Collier Capital Machine Corporation for an overhaul on the DKM 15 Stage Pump.

Executive Summary

(include fiscal and staffing impact narrative): The 600 hp booster pump for the B Street pump station, which pumps treated waste to the geysers, is in need of major repair. Collier Capital Machine Corporation specializes in these very large pumps. The pump was transported to Collier, where they dismantled and assessed the damage. Trying to obtain three quotes for the pump which weighs over 1 ton and is now dismantled would be very expensive and would not produce an economic benefit to the County. Additional quotes will not only cost additional money, it will delay the repair considerably. An entire new bowl assembly, including the dismantling and inspection, new impellers and new wear rings is quoted at $77,633.09. This is provided for in the current budget as a Geysers expense. Due to the size of the pump and the critical need for it to be operational for long term, heavy use, staff recommends the entire new bowl assembly. Which exemption is being requested? N/A How long has Agreement been in place? N/A When was purchase last rebid? N/A Reason for request to waive bid? A competitive bidding would produce no economic benefit to the County and would actually cost additional money and time

Recommended Action

(a) Waive the competitive bidding process, pursuant to Lake County Code Section 2-38.2, based on the determination that competitive bidding would produce no economic benefit to the County; and (b) Authorize Special Districts Administrator/Assistant Purchasing Agent to issue a purchase order not to exceed $78,000 to Collier Capital Machine Corporation for an overhaul on the DKM 15 Stage Pump.

Date: February 4, 2020 · To: The Honorable Moke Simon, Chair, Lake County Board of Supervisors · From: Andrew Williams, Code Enforcement Manager David Casian, Chief Building Official/Fire Marshal Michalyn DelValle, Community Development Director · Subject: Report of Chapter 13-Hazardous Vegetation 2019 Overview and Recommendations

Executive Summary

The Hazardous Vegetation Ordinance passed on March 19, 2019 and went into effect on April 25, 2019. We began inspections on May 6, 2019 with two teams of four inspectors in the Kelseyville Riviera and moved through the County: Riviera West, Riviera Heights and Buckingham next to Soda Bay, followed by Middletown, Anderson Springs, Cobb and Loch Lomond. We then moved to Spring Valley, Lake Pillsbury, and so on for a total inspection count of approximately 2,000 sites. For every non-compliant inspection in the field, inspectors spent approximately 30 minutes in the office researching property owner's address, filling out paper work, mailings, and starting cases in the database; as well as not neglecting our other responsibilities of non-permitted cannabis grows, open and outdoor storage, health and safety, and so on. Most property owners of improved properties were working on hazardous vegetation and were in voluntary compliance. A large number did not understand the new ordinance and how to become compliant but after some education, compliance was accomplished. Cal Fire only inspects improved properties on a three year rotation. HOA's inspect improved and unimproved properties. This year the County of Lake will be participating in a beta test with Cal Fire's computer-based inspection reporting software for improved properties, whereas County of Lake Inspectors take a specific area and do the inspections and Cal Fire will take other areas with no overlap. The areas are still to be determined. After two non-compliant inspections of a property the other agency would do the third inspection with abatement process to follow. When a property was found to be in noncompliance, a courtesy letter with a link to the Lake County Hazardous Vegetation Ordinance, was sent with 30 days to become compliant. If voluntary compliance was not achieved the property owner or owners were sent a notice of abatement with a 30 day window to become compliant. If compliance is not met possible abatement action is taken based on severity, topography, fuel load and life safety concerns. In 2019, temperatures increased early in the fire season and humidity dropped. Winds picked up making abatement hazardous and no county abatements were done. Lake County sent out 378 Notice to Abate letters, 47 were returned undeliverable. Inspectors use the County of Lake tax roll to get addresses for the mailings. We had approximately 75% compliance to mailings sent to property owners. Unimproved properties are the real challenge due to absentee owners, deceased owners, large properties (from 1 to 100's of acres) and owners not understanding County of Lake Ordinances and so on.

Recommended Action

1. Prioritize areas and start with improved property's and unimproved that are within 30 feet of any structure or egress also known as evacuation routes starting with the Cobb mountain area, Anderson Springs, Clear Lake Rivera, Rivera west Buckingham Rivera Heights and the urban interface around Lakeport and the North shore the Based on Living with Wildfire Lake County Community Wildfire Protection Plan Overview and Summary 2009 http://www.lakecountyca.gov/Assets/County+Site/Fire+Safe+Council/cwpp/cwpp.pdf 2. Start inspections in February or early March. 3. Put together educational Power Point (in progress) that will be given to the Fire Safe Counsel's, Fire Wise groups and will be put out on social media and press releases through local newspapers to better educate the community so they understand the ordinance and the different requirements for improved and unimproved properties. 4. In 2020 we will have one full time experienced Code Enforcement Officer assigned and one Extra Help to hazardous vegetation due to the very large area that needs to be covered in a very short amount of time while continuing with other cases like nuisance, non-permitted cannabis, health and safety, permitted cannabis inspections, and grading/environmental.

No additional funding requested — the memo's cost fields were left blank, which on this form means the item is already budgeted.

Staff memo

Date: February 4, 2020 · To: The Honorable Moke Simon, Chair, Lake County Board of Supervisors · From: Michalyn DelValle, Eric Porter; Community Development Department · Subject: Dawson/Guerra Continued Appeal, File No. AB 19-02

Exhibits: A1 - Memorandum from Andrew Williams and David Casian A2 - Public Resource Code (PRC) 4290 and 4291 Summary Report A3 - Conditions of Approval for Use Permit UP 18-23 A4 - Memo to the Board of Supervisors for the January 14, 2020 Hearing A5 - 2020 PRC Standards for Roads in SRA Areas

Executive Summary

(include fiscal and staffing impact narrative): On January 14, 2020, the Board of Supervisors requested staff to contact the two parties to see whether a renegotiated easement could be a solution to the situation. Staff contacted the appellant's attorney, Andre Ross, who indicated his client would be willing to listen to any proposals by the applicant Will Dawson. Staff however was unable to contact Will Dawson, and to this date, no negotiations have taken place between the two parties. The Board also requested further information on how PRC 4290 could be applied and met in the context of the Guerra/Dawson appeal, and to provide options for the Board's consideration if a renegotiated easement was not a viable solution. If the contested use permit were to be approved, it would authorize outdoor commercial cannabis cultivation, a 5,000 square foot (s.f.) drying building, and the conversion of a 700 s.f. existing detached garage for chemical storage. Analysis - Public Resource Code 4290 PRC Section 4290 sets the framework for specific standards for certain types of roads to be applied on properties in the State Responsibility Area (SRA; high fire); these specific road standards are found in the California Code of Regulations (CCR), Title 14, Chapter 7, and are identified in this memo as CCR �1271 (Definition; Roads) and CCR �1273 (Road Width). CAL FIRE has delegated State Fire Code authority to the Lake County Building Official for properties that are within the SRA, including the Dawson/Guerra properties. The Lake County Building Official also acts as Fire Marshal for Lake County. On January 16, 2020, Code Enforcement Manager Andrew Williams contacted CAL FIRE's Sacramento headquarters and spoke with various CAL FIRE personnel in order to confirm the definition of the shared driveway serving the commercial use. Following this phone conversation with Sacramento's main CAL FIRE office, Mr. Williams and Chief Building Official David Casian determined that the 20 foot wide shared access easement in dispute by definition is a Road, since it serves a commercial use. This determination was made based on the conversation held between Mr. Williams and CAL FIRE, and from the definition found in 14 CCR �1271.00. The definition of a Road, as of January 3, 2020, is as follows: Road: Vehicular access to more than two (2) parcels; more than four (4) residential units; or access to any industrial or commercial occupancy. Includes public and private streets and lanes. (14 CCR �1271.00) Because the 20' wide Road leads to the commercial (cannabis) use, the Road must meet the construction standard found in 14 CCR �1273.01 as follows: Width. (a) All roads shall be constructed to provide a minimum of two ten (10) foot traffic lanes, not including shoulder and striping. These traffic lanes shall provide for two-way traffic flow to support emergency vehicle and civilian egress, unless other standards are provided in this article or additional requirements are mandated by local jurisdictions or local subdivision requirements. Vertical clearances shall conform to the requirements in California Vehicle Code section 35250. (14 CCR �1273.01) The Building Official / Lake County Fire Marshal has determined based on these definitions and standards, that the 20' wide shared access easement is by definition a Road and that the road width standards found in 14 CCR �1273.01 apply. The existing 20' wide shared road is not compliant with the applicable improvement standards found in 14 CCR �1273.01. Exceptions to Road Construction Standards CCR �1270.06 contains a provision for exceptions to road standards found in 14 CCR �1273.01. Staff discussed this option with the Building Official / Fire Marshal. The Building Official / Fire Marshal indicated that given the site configuration and the portion of the applicant Dawson's property to have the ability to install a new access that does not pass through the Guerra property, the Building Official / Fire Marshal would deny any request for an exception to 1273.01 road standards for the shared driveway. The specific verbiage allowing exception consideration on a case-by-case basis states: (a) Upon request by the applicant, exceptions to standards within this subchapter or to local jurisdiction certified ordinances may be allowed by the inspection entity listed in 14 CCR � 1270.05, where the exceptions provide the same practical effect as these regulations towards providing defensible space. Exceptions granted by the inspection entity listed in 14 CCR � 1270.05 shall be made on a case-by-case basis only. Exceptions granted by the inspection entity listed in 14 CCR � 1270.05 shall be forwarded to the appropriate CAL FIRE Unit Office that administers SRA fire protection in that county and shall be retained on file at the Unit Office. (b) Requests for an exception shall be made in writing to the inspection entity listed in 14 CCR � 1270.05 by the applicant or the applicant's authorized representative. At a minimum, the request shall state the specific section(s) for which an exception is requested, material facts supporting the contention of the applicant, the details of the exception proposed, and a map showing the proposed location and siting of the exception. Local jurisdictions listed in 14 CCR section 1270.05 may establish additional procedures or requirements for exception requests. (c) Where an exception is not granted by the inspection entity, the applicant may appeal such denial to the local jurisdiction. The local jurisdiction may establish or utilize an appeal process consistent with existing local building or planning department appeal processes. (d) Before the local jurisdiction makes a determination on an appeal, the inspection authority shall be consulted and shall provide to that local jurisdiction documentation outlining the effects of the requested exception on wildfire protection. (e) If an appeal is granted, the local jurisdiction shall make findings that the decision meets the intent of providing defensible space consistent with these regulations. Such findings shall include a statement of reasons for the decision. A written copy of these findings shall be provided to the CAL FIRE Unit headquarters that administers SRA fire protection in that local jurisdiction. The applicant, Will Dawson, wants to continue to use the shared 20' wide access easement that transects the Guerra property, however Mr. Dawson has not requested any exception to CCR subsection 1270.06 in writing as is required by this subsection of the Cal. Code of Regulations. Options Available to the Board Option 1: Allow the existing 20 foot wide shared access easement to be used, but require it to be brought to PRC 4290 and 4291 compliance as authorized by CCR 1273.01. Proposed Condition: The proposed access shall meet California Code of Regulations (CCR) Title 14, Chapter 7, subsection 1273.01 within one hundred and eighty (180) days of the date of this decision including all permits that might be required. CCR 14 1273.01 compliance shall address: Width. (a) All roads shall be constructed to provide a minimum of two ten (10) foot traffic lanes, not including shoulder and striping. These traffic lanes shall provide for two-way traffic flow to support emergency vehicle and civilian egress, unless other standards are provided in this article or additional requirements are mandated by local jurisdictions or local subdivision requirements. Vertical clearances shall conform to the requirements in California Vehicle Code section 35250. (14 CCR �1273.01) Option 2: Require a new access to be constructed off of Spruce Grove Road in accordance with CCR Title 14, Chapter 7, subsection 1273.01 standards. Proposed Condition: The Applicant shall construct a road in compliance with CCR Title 14, Chapter 7, subsection 1273.01 standards. The road shall be located off of Spruce Grove Road. An encroachment permit shall be obtained from the Department of Public Works. CCR Title 14, Chapter 7, subsection 1273.01 compliance shall address: Width. (a) All roads shall be constructed to provide a minimum of two ten (10) foot traffic lanes, not including shoulder and striping. These traffic lanes shall provide for two-way traffic flow to support emergency vehicle and civilian egress, unless other standards are provided in this article or additional requirements are mandated by local jurisdictions or local subdivision requirements. Vertical clearances shall conform to the requirements in California Vehicle Code section 35250. (14 CCR �1273.01). Option 3: Allow the use of the shared 20' wide access easement and authorize an exception to CCR Title 14, Chapter 7, subsection 1273.01 standards. Proposed Condition: The applicant may use the existing 20 foot wide shared access and utility easement. No improvements to this easement are required. If an exception is granted, the County Community Development Department shall notify the local CAL FIRE Unit Office of this exception, including the location of the exception and specific details as to why the exception was granted. Not applicable
