Staff memo
Executive Summary
(include fiscal and staffing impact narrative):
(a) 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:
This item came to my attention subsequent to the posting of the current agenda and there is a need to take action before the next agenda.

Both Hospital ICU's are full
Sutter ER is at 18 patients, despite only having 14 ER beds
If the state was still doing tiered colors, with our daily case and testing positivity rate now the highest of any California county, Lake County would currently be in the purple tier. When in purple tier, all persons were masking indoors.
Our Board needs to take immediate steps for the safety of our employees and the public, geared toward keeping our offices open and needed services in place.
(b) For the safety of our employees and the public we serve, and with the intent to maintain County offices in their present open status, I am recommending our Board adopt an Urgency Ordinance Requiring all Persons, Regardless of Vaccination Status, Wear Face Coverings in County Facilities.

Executive Summary
On May 25, 2021, your Board approved the purchase of a Tilting Skillet and Planetary Mixer from Cook's Supply. After the purchase order was issued and prior to the shipment of these items, it was determined that an additional charge of $150.00 per item would be charged due to the lack of a forklift at the jail facility to offload the order.
The department forklift was inspected by an outside contractor and it was determined to be unfit for use. The forklift did not meet minimum requirements of the California Occupational Safety and Health Administration. Staff contacted a forklift repair company to attempt to bring the forklift up to code, however the vendor was unable to find the necessary parts to make the forklift safe. The forklift has been taken out of service and is no longer available for use. As a result, extra expenses have occurred resulting in these charges.

Executive Summary
(include fiscal and staffing impact narrative):
Learning disabilities should not be a barrier to employment and self-sufficiency. The Lake County Department of Social Services (LCDSS) CalWORKs Welfare-to-Work (WTW) program supports this philosophy by offering learning disability testing, evaluations, and accommodations to WTW clients. It is a State mandate that LCDSS must provide testing and evaluations to any WTW client who requests such services. Brain Learning Psychological Corporation (Brain Learning) has experience providing these services to county welfare departments. In addition to the testing and evaluation services, Brain Learning will also be providing training for staff to increase knowledge and awareness of learning disabilities. A disproportionate percentage of the unemployed have learning disabilities compared to the general population and given awareness and accommodation, a client is more prepared and better able to reach their employment goals. Despite COVID-19 restrictions, Brain Learning was still able to complete six evaluations in fiscal year 2020/2021. Brain Learning charges a rate of $1,500 per completed assessment.
Recommended Action
Approve Contract between the County of Lake and Brain Learning Psychological Corporation for Learning Disability Testing and Evaluation Services in the amount of $45,000 from July 1, 2021 to June 30, 2022, and authorize the Chair to sign.

Staff memo
Executive Summary
(include fiscal and staffing impact narrative): Article X of Chapter Two of the Lake County Code is being amended to include further requirements for exemptions from competitive bidding as well as additional requirements for bid protests. Based on the direction received from your Board on 7/20/2021 staff is submitting this Ordinance for a first reading.
Section 38.2 is amended to include additional information regarding exemptions from competitive bidding. The additions are shown in bold below.
38.2 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,
A) An "emergency purchase" is a purchase made in response to an emergency as defined in Section 34.1(k) herein.
B) Section 42.1 and 42.2 herein provides further guidance.
(2) The unique nature of the goods or services precludes competitive bidding,
A) Use of this criterion requires documentation demonstrating both why the goods or services contracted are unique and why competitive bidding is precluded. Appropriate documentation shall be attached to the Memorandum to the Board of Supervisors at the time the item is submitted for consideration of Agenda placement.
(3) A determination that competitive bidding would produce no economic benefit to the County.
A) The cost of supplies, materials, equipment, or contractual services would not offer a large variation in the overall cost. The possibility of completing the competitive bidding process for new supplies, materials, equipment, or contractual services would offset any potential savings.
B) Competitive bidding shall be required every three (3) years.
C) Extensions during the three (3) year period shall not require competitive bidding.
Section 40.3 is amended to adjust the not to exceed amount of the local preference for informal solicitations. The changes are shown in bold below.
(b) In addition to the foregoing criteria, if the total combined quote amount submitted by a responsible local vendor is not greater than one hundred ten (110) percent of the apparent low quote and all other criteria being equal, preference shall be given to the responsible local vendor. However, in no case shall the amount of the preference exceed five thousand dollars ($5,000.00) two thousand five hundred dollars ($2,500.00), unless waived by the Lake County Board of Supervisors when it determines that a waiver would serve the best interests of the County and the public due either to the nature of the goods or services provided, the projected long-term costs to the County, or the ability to respond to the County's needs in a timely manner. This provision shall not apply to contracts required by State or Federal statutes and/or regulations to be awarded to the 'lowest responsible respondent' or otherwise exempted from local preference.
Section 41.3 is amended to adjust the not to exceed amount of the local preference for formal bids. The changes are shown in bold below.
(b) Local Vendor Preference. A ten percent (10%) preference shall be granted to Lake County local vendors on all sealed bids. However, in no case shall the amount of the preference exceed ten twenty thousand dollars ($120,000.00), unless waived by the Lake County Board of Supervisors when it determines that a waiver would serve the best interests of the County and the public due either to the nature of the goods or services provided, the projected long-term costs to the County, or the ability to respond to the County's needs in a timely manner. This provision shall not apply to contracts required by State or federal statutes and/or regulations to be awarded to the 'lowest responsible bidder,' or otherwise exempted from local preference.
Sections 46.1 and 46.3 are amended to include additional information regarding bid protests. The additions are shown in bold below.
46.1 Any party with a direct financial interest who is aggrieved by any alleged material irregularity in connection with the intended award of a bid, may file a bid protest with the Purchasing Agent or Assistant Purchasing Agent, where such protest is based on alleged violations of Federal, State, or local law or ordinance, or alleged material irregularity in either the County's bid invitation or in the bid to which an awarded is intended. Generally, non-material irregularities in a bid response are those that substantially conform to the bid requirements and do not affect the bid price, time or conditions in such a way as to affect the amount of the bid or provide a competitive advantage or benefit not allowed to other bidders. Material irregularities in a bid invitation provide a competitive advantage or benefit to one (1) bidder that is not enjoyed by other bidders. The Purchasing Agent or Assistant Purchasing Agent may determine whether an alleged irregularity exists and whether it is material or non-material and shall have the authority to waive non-material irregularities. A bid protest must:
(a) Be written,
(b) State the specific alleged violation of law or alleged material irregularity,
(c) Request a determination of the appeal,
(d) Provide a telephone number and email address at which the appellant can be contacted,
(e) Be filed no later than seven (7) days after the date of the Notice of Intent to Award Letter and/or formal Bid Opening (holidays excepted). Any protest filed after this time will not be considered.
46.3 Within seventy-two (72) hours of receipt of appeal, the Purchasing Agent or Assistant Purchasing Agent shall provide written notification to the appellant of the determination. A determination under this procedure shall be final except that the Purchasing Agent's or Assistant Purchasing Agent's decision may be appealed to the County Administrative Officer in writing within forty-eight (48) hours from the Purchasing Agent's or Assistant Purchasing Agent's notification to appellant.
Not applicable

This provision shall not apply to contracts required by State or federal statutes and/or regulations to be awarded to the 'lowest responsible bidder,' or otherwise exempted from local preference.
Sections 46.1 and 46.3 are amended to include additional information regarding bid protests. The additions are shown in bold below.
46.1 Any party with a direct financial interest who is aggrieved by any alleged material irregularity in connection with the intended award of a bid, may file a bid protest with the Purchasing Agent or Assistant Purchasing Agent, where such protest is based on alleged violations of Federal, State, or local law or ordinance, or alleged material irregularity in either the County's bid invitation or in the bid to which an awarded is intended. Generally, non-material irregularities in a bid response are those that substantially conform to the bid requirements and do not affect the bid price, time or conditions in such a way as to affect the amount of the bid or provide a competitive advantage or benefit not allowed to other bidders. Material irregularities in a bid invitation provide a competitive advantage or benefit to one (1) bidder that is not enjoyed by other bidders. The Purchasing Agent or Assistant Purchasing Agent may determine whether an alleged irregularity exists and whether it is material or non-material and shall have the authority to waive non-material irregularities. A bid protest must:
(a) Be written,
(b) State the specific alleged violation of law or alleged material irregularity,
(c) Request a determination of the appeal,
(d) Provide a telephone number and email address at which the appellant can be contacted,
(e) Be filed no later than seven (7) days after the date of the Notice of Intent to Award Letter and/or formal Bid Opening (holidays excepted). Any protest filed after this time will not be considered.
46.3 Within seventy-two (72) hours of receipt of appeal, the Purchasing Agent or Assistant Purchasing Agent shall provide written notification to the appellant of the determination. A determination under this procedure shall be final except that the Purchasing Agent's or Assistant Purchasing Agent's decision may be appealed to the County Administrative Officer in writing within forty-eight (48) hours from the Purchasing Agent's or Assistant Purchasing Agent's notification to appellant.
