5.10(Sitting as the Kelseyville County Waterworks #3, Board of Directors) – (a) Approve Proposed Private Lateral Grant Program to Assist Property Owners For The Replacement Costs of Private Laterals to Reduce Inflow and Infiltration; and (b) Adopt Resolution canceling reserves in the amount of $15,000 to fund the program
Resolution
passed on consent
Staff memo
Executive Summary
(include fiscal and staffing impact narrative):
Lake County Sanitation District, (LACOSAN) has implemented a grant program to assist private property owners with costs to repair faulty private laterals. Faulty private laterals are a significant source of Inflow and Infiltration (I & I) which increases the load on the public sewer system and increases treatment costs. I & I from private laterals is significant during periods of rainfall and high lake levels, when the public sewer system is often overwhelmed and sewer overflows and spills occur. I & I from private laterals can result in backups on the property and flood basements and households and cause manholes to pop open and release sewage in the streets.
Since announcing the new program, we have had inquiries from customers of Kelseyville County Waterworks #3 that are in need of private lateral repairs. We are proposing to appropriate $15,000 to be used for customers of Kelseyville County Waterworks #3 (KVCWW). The program will pay one half of the cost of repairs or replacement, up to $3,000 for each approved applicant.
To be eligible for the funds, the property owner will need to schedule a CCTV inspection with KVCWW staff or they can hire a third party to conduct the CCTV inspection. This will determine if the planned repairs will reduce I&I which is required for the grant funding to be approved.
Typical sewer laterals are designed to last 20 to 50 years. Many homes in Kelseyville and Finley are older and have faulty sewer laterals. The cost to replace or repair them can be burdensome on property owners. We hope that this pilot grant program will encourage and assist property owners to replace or repair faulty laterals and reduce the load on the public sewer system.
Recommended Action
(a) Approve Proposed Private Lateral Grant Program to Assist Property Owners For The Replacement Costs of Private Laterals to Reduce Inflow and Infiltration
(b) Adopt Resolution canceling reserves in the amount of $15,000 to fund the program.

Executive Summary
Special Districts Administration is requesting the purchase of a 15 KW generator with an anticipated cost of $30,000 that can be used at the Special District Administration office which suffered from power outages during last year's PSPS's.

Executive Summary:
Special Districts Administration is requesting the purchase of a 15 KW generator with an anticipated cost of $30,000 that can be used at the Special District Administration office which suffered from power outages during last year's PSPS's. The Special Districts Administration office is without a generator and with the PG&E PSPS approaching, a generator is needed to ensure continual office service/support with our utility customers, our field staff, other county departments and vendors. The generator will provide sufficient power to run the administration office in the event of a PG&E public safety power shutoff.
Attached for your review is a Resolution cancelling Fund 295 Special Districts Administration, Equipment Reserve Designation in the amount of $30,000. The amount would be appropriated to Fund 295 Object Code 786.62-74 Fixed Assets-Equipment / Other.
The District requests your Board's approval of the purchase to ensure no interruption of service during a loss of power, which is anticipated by the PG&E PSPS fire prevention policies and procedures.

Staff memo
Executive Summary
(include fiscal and staffing impact narrative):
We are requesting mileage reimbursement for Al Acrey for the time between May 09, 2020 and August 14, 2020. Al Acrey was initially hired to work at the Clearlake Oaks ramp. In March when the county experienced a shut down due to Covid-19, Clear Lake was also closed to the public.
After the reopening of the Lake, we had some ramp monitors that did not return due to the potential risk of Covid-19. The ramps at Library Park in Lakeport became unmonitored for Quagga Mussels, causing a greater chance of infestation in Clear Lake.
Management directed Al to cover Library Park until we were able to hire additional ramp monitors. We are requesting to have Mr. Acrey reimbursed for the additional mileage he incurred providing inspection services in Lakeport.
The total amounts requested are as follows:
May 09 through May 31 2020 - 624 miles @.39 per mile for a total of $243.36
June 01 through June 30 2020 - 624 miles @ .39 per mile for a total of $243.36
July 01 through July 31 2020 - 676 miles @ .39 per mile for a total of $263.64
August 01 through August 14 2020 - 364 Miles @ .39 per mile for a total of $141.96
The total amount of the reimbursement request for Al Acrey is $982.32.
Recommended Action
Approve Mileage Reimbursement for Al Acrey, Quagga Mussel Monitor in the amount of $983.32 and authorize the Auditor to pay.

Executive Summary
(include fiscal and staffing impact narrative):
On September 16, 2020, as Clerk of the Board, I received the referendum petition against Ordinance No. 3097. The petitioner indicates that said petition consists of 381 sections and a raw count of 2,507 signatures of local registered voters. The petition was received prior to the effective date of Ordinance No. 3097. This means that the ordinance is presently suspended and the Board of Supervisors must reconsider the ordinance. Your Board will likely wish to file the petition with the Registrar of Voters in order for the Registrar to verify the signatures.
The Registrar of Voters has 30 working days from submission to verify the signatures, in order to determine if the petition is sufficient. If the petition if found to be sufficient, the Registrar of Voters will certify the results to your Board at which time your Board must either rescind the ordinance in its entirety or present it to the voters. If the petition is determined to be insufficient, no further action is taken and the Ordinance would go into effect.
Recommended Action
Direct the Registrar of Voters to verify the signatures for the referendum petition against Ordinance No. 3097.

Supervisor Sabatier will present some of the issues that have been ongoing within the Treasurer Tax Collector's Office that impacts the county and its many partners.
Problems include:
- Delayed deposits which burden our partner agencies as well as individuals

- Inability to problem solve the issues of the department whether through creative staffing strategies or the addition of new technology
- Inability to follow through and make the necessary changes to make progress in mitigating the problems of the department
- Inability to trust that change will occur in a meaningful way or that the answers we are given are honest or truthful
These problems above will be provided in greater detail and these problems are what lead me to believe that there is no other choice but to move forward with a Vote of No Confidence as there is no evidence to show us that these things will change in the near future.
