5.1Approve extension of Families First Coronavirus Response Act (FFCRA) Emergency Paid Sick Leave (EPSL) and Emergency Family Medical Leave (EFMLA) through March 31, 2021
Action Item
passed on consent
Staff memo
Executive Summary
(include fiscal and staffing impact narrative):
The Consolidated Appropriations Act (CAA) 2021 signed into law on December 27, 2020 makes it possible to voluntarily extend two types of emergency paid leaves through March 31, 2021 that were originally mandated between April 1, 2020 and December 31, 2020 by the FFCRA. These FFCRA leaves are EPSL and EFMLA, also referred to as Paid Health Emergency Leave (PHEL).
Given the ongoing, and in fact worsening nature of the pandemic, and with most schools still closed, all of which are factors greatly impacting our workforce, staff recommends allowing this extension for employees of the County of Lake who did not exhaust all such leave prior to December 31, 2020.
Recommended Action
By motion, extend EPSL and EFMLA through March 31, 2021, directing staff to prepare a minute order documenting your action.

5.3Adopt Property Tax Exchange Resolution for Proposed Annexation to Clearlake Oaks County Water District
Resolution
passed on consent
Staff memo
Executive Summary
(include fiscal and staffing impact narrative):
Our office has received notification from the County Auditor-Controller regarding a proposed annexation to Clearlake Oaks County Water District (CLOCWD) which has been filed with LAFCO (Project #2019-07). The assessor parcel number is 006-005-61. A tax exchange agreement must be reached in order for this annexation to proceed.
Since the County will not be relieved of any service requirements as a result of this annexation, it would not be appropriate for the General Fund and other taxing entities to incur any loss of property tax revenue. Staff has confirmed CLOCWD agrees with this assessment. The proposed Resolution, attached hereto, provides for no exchange of the existing base property tax revenue or the future tax increment as a result of this annexation.
Recommended Action
Staff recommends that your Board adopt the Property Tax Exchange Resolution for Proposed Annexation to Clearlake Oaks County Water District.

Staff memo
Executive Summary
(include fiscal and staffing impact narrative):
On January 15, 2019, California Governor Gavin Newsom signed Executive Order N-06-19 directing the Department of General Services (DGS) to collaborate with the Department of Housing and Community Development (HCD) and the California Housing Finance Agency (CalHFA) to identify and prioritize excess state-owned property for sustainable, innovative and cost-effective housing developments to address California's shortage of affordable housing. As part of this initiative, the Lakeport Armory property located at 1431 Hoyt Avenue, Lakeport CA was identified as excess state-owned property.
Beginning in 2020, led by California State Senator Mike McGuire, the County of Lake (Sheriff and CAO), City of Clearlake, and various State of California agencies, hereinafter referred to as the "partners", began discussions exploring the opportunity for a land swap involving the state-owned Lakeport Armory and the County-owned undeveloped property located at 15837 18th Avenue, Clearlake, CA.
On July 20, 2020, the State of California DGS issued a Request for Qualification (RFQ) to create an affordable housing development on the County's undeveloped property located in the City of Clearlake. Statements of Qualifications (SOQ) were received from development teams. Qualified respondents have been invited to submit a proposal to help the state's goals of affordable housing. Eligible projects must include a minimum of 50 percent deed restricted affordable housing units, consistent with Government Code section 14671.2.
In preparation for this project, the County of Lake must declare the 15.5 acre county-owned vacant real property (APN 010-043-01) located in the City Clearlake as surplus and authorize the exchange and disposition of said property for the benefit of the public. Government Code 25365 allows your Board to grant, convey, quitclaim, assign, or otherwise transfer to the state any real or personal property, or interest therein belonging to the County that is not required for County use.
On December 15, 2020, staff requests an opportunity to bring the partners together, along with Senator McGuire, who will present this exciting project to your Board.
Staff also requests the direction of your Board, to complete the tasks necessary to declare aforementioned county-owned property surplus in preparation for the Lakeport Armory/Clearlake Property Land Swap Proposal, in coordination with both the City of Clearlake and the State of California.

Staff memo
Executive Summary
(include fiscal and staffing impact narrative):
The Lake County Health Services Department's Epidemiologist produces reports providing data regarding the distribution of COVID-19 cases within Lake County. Recently released reports identified that the Latino Population is experiencing a disproportionately higher rate of COVID-19 infections. Latinos make up about 22% of the county population, but more than 43% of COVID-19 cases. On December 1, 2020, Lake County Health Services issued a Request for Proposals #LCHS 20-001 Prevention, Detection and Support: A Lake County COVID-19 Initiative for Latino-Focused Outreach. The full body of work under this award encompasses outreach and community engagement, public health education and information, identification and implementation of strategies to increase testing and facilitate vaccination efforts, and provide resources and support for people and families needing to isolate or quarantine. The overall goal of this RFP is to prevent new COVID-19 infections and reduce the daily case rate among Latino residents.
Proposals were solicited publically and included posting to the Lake County Bids & RFP Webpage. One proposal was received from the following organization:
Lake County Office of Education (Local) with a bid of $192,268
The proposal was reviewed by the RFP Selection Committee and has been determined to have met all requirements of the proposal. Lake County Office of Education has submitted a responsive proposal and can provide support within the budget constraints.
Lake County Health Services has applied for and received State COVID-19 ELC funding. We have allocated $263,232.00 to assist the disproportionately impacted populations. The State will reimburse the County based on submitted claims.
Staff respectfully requests your approval of the attached Agreement.

Report
Staff memo
Executive Summary
(include fiscal and staffing impact narrative):
Staff requests an opportunity to demonstrate Zoom Webinar to your Board, as an alternative to the regular Zoom meetings we have been using since spring 2020.
Members of your Board have very likely been exposed to Zoom Webinars through State-hosted or other meetings. Some potential benefits may not be readily discernible as a participant. A number of jurisdictions are now using Zoom Webinar to limit meeting disruptions and make hosting of meetings more efficient.
Staff requests an opportunity to demonstrate Zoom Webinar to your Board, and present the advantages and disadvantages, in the event your Board may wish to direct staff to make the switch. A basic demonstration and cost information will provided.
In terms of cost, presently, your Board's Zoom Business license cost is $16.65 per month for the package. With upgrade to Zoom Webinar for Business, the license cost would be $49.98 per month for the same capacity. If need arose to go up to the next level capacity of 500 participates, the total monthly cost would be $133.32.
Recommended Action
