Executive Summary

(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. (b) Consideration of Ratification of the Proclamation of a Local Health Emergency by the Lake County Health Officer for the Cache Fire. EXECUTIVE SUMMARY: California Health and Safety Code section 101040 authorizes the local health officer to take any preventive measures that may be necessary to protect and preserve public health from any public hazard during an emergency. The Health Officer of Lake County finds that the Cache Fire that started in the City of Clearlake on August 18, 2021 meets the criteria for a Public Health Proclamation. The fire has created an imminent threat to public health in the form of contaminated debris from hazardous waste and materials and structural debris resulting from the destruction of structures and vehicles, especially given the proximity to Cache Creek and the high risk of contamination of waterways that feed Clear Lake and area drinking water supplies. The hazardous waste debris poses a substantial present or potential hazard to human health and the environment unless its removal and disposal is performed in a manner that will protect the public health and safety. ?

The official manager of the LCTID is Visit Lake County California (VLCC), a 501(c)3 organization which acts as the Owners' Association for the LCTID.

Staff respectfully requests your approval of the attached Agreement which authorizes the County of Lake to provide funds for the purpose of marketing Lake County. Historically, the funds for these services have been directed to multiple vendors. With the creation of the LCTID the funds can now be directed to one vendor (Visit Lake County California) which will be responsible for promoting Lake County as a tourist, meeting and event destination.

Staff memo

Date: August 24, 2021 · To: The Honorable Bruno Sabatier, Chair, Lake County Board of Supervisors · From: Todd Metcalf, M.P.A. Behavioral Health Services Director · Subject: (a) Waive the formal bidding/RFP 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 services; (b) Approve the Agreement between County of Lake and Kingsview Corporation for Support Services for State Mandated Cost Reporting for Fiscal Years 2020-21 and 2021-22 for a contract maximum amount of $120,000.00 and authorize the Board Chair to sign the Agreement.

Executive Summary

This contract covers services in FY 20-21 that have already been rendered, as well as services to continue to project through FY 21-22. Due to unforeseen circumstances that delayed LCBHS from getting the contract executed in FY 20-21, we have to include those services in this contract. Kingsview is Cerner's contracted intermediary between themselves and the California counties who use Anasazi, our Electronic Health Record (EHR). Therefore, they are in a unique position to be the sole experts of the data our system holds and how to get that data maximized correctly for our cost reporting, which is critical to our continuing operations. Kingsview has been working with LCBHS for many years, providing critical technical assistance for our Electronic Health Record as well as support around mandated state and federal reporting. This particular contract supports cost reporting for LCBHS' Mental Health Services Act (MHSA) Program. We are required to provide financial reports of MHSA Program expenditures and reconcile our financial records with the Department of Health Care Services as well as the Mental Health Services Oversight and Accountability Commission. LCBHS does not have the capacity or expertise to complete all fiscal reporting requirements, and thus has engaged with Kingsview to augment our capacity and provide critical guidance, particularly around financial reporting. Because Kingsview has such an intimate knowledge of LCBHS programs, functions, and also proven expertise with regard to various reporting requirements, LCBHS is requesting to waive the formal bidding process. LCBHS is not aware of any other entity in California who provides the same scope of caliber of work. Engaging in an RFP for this work would very likely not yield another contractor with the same qualifications to perform this work as Kingsview. Additionally, utilizing another contractor at this stage would dramatically set this critical reporting work back, as they would have to learn our programs and systems from scratch, whereas Kingsview understands our systems and business processes. An RFP would cause undue burden and would not be in the public interest. Which exemption is being requested? 38.2 How long has Agreement been in place? Ongoing When was purchase last rebid? N/A Reason for request to waive bid? Unique Nature of Goods/Services

Recommended Action

(a) Waive the formal bidding/RFP 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 services; (b) Approve the Agreement between County of Lake and Kingsview Corporation for Support Services for State Mandated Cost Reporting for Fiscal Years 2020-21 and 2021-22 for a contract maximum amount of $120,000.00 and authorize the Board Chair to sign the Agreement.

Staff memo

Date: August 24, 2021 · To: The Honorable Lake County Board of Supervisors · From: Lars Ewing, Public Services Director · Subject: Adopt Resolution Exempting Lake County from the Organic Waste Collection Requirements of SB 1383, Reducing Short-Lived Climate Pollutants in California

Executive Summary

On August 17, 2021, staff gave a presentation to the Board of Supervisors summarizing the state regulations that implement SB 1383, Reducing Short-Lived Climate Pollutants in California. One component of the regulations is the opportunity for Lake County to claim a rural jurisdiction exemption, which would exempt the county from the requirements to provide organic waste collection services, organic waste capacity planning, and procurement of organic waste products. The Board expressed its support for such a waiver during the presentation; however, the resolution was not included with the agenda packet and therefore could not be considered. Included with this agenda item for the Board's consideration is the resolution.

Recommended Action

Staff recommends the Board of Supervisors adopt the attached resolution exempting the County of Lake from the organic waste collection service requirements of SB 1383.

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: August 24, 2021 · To: The Honorable Lake County Board of Supervisors · From: Scott Harter, Special Districts Administrator · Subject: Approve Agreement Between the County of Lake on behalf of CSA-02, Spring Valley and Anchor QEA, LLC for Engineering and Design Services for the Spring Valley Lake Recovery Project for an Amount not to Exceed Four Hundred Twenty Nine Thousand Four Hundred Fifty Seven Dollars and No Cents ($429,457.00), and Authorize the Chair to Sign.

Executive Summary

The Spring Valley Lake Recovery Project consists of reclaiming the water volume and area of the original reservoir and dam capacity of 320 acre-feet from the current volume of approximately 43 acre-feet. The reclaimed lake is anticipated to provide water for wild land fire suppression as well as backup domestic water supply in the event of a prolonged drought. The proposed project will be completed in three phases; phase I will involve construction of a sedimentation pond and filtration marshes, re-direction of Wolf Creek to the southern bank of the reservoir to the spill way of the dam. Phases II and Ill will remove 10-20 feet of accumulated sediment. Approximately half of the deposits are expected to be silt and will be distributed to recommended sites within the Spring Valley Subdivision. The remainder of the removed material will be hauled off-site. A new north bank transit road may be proposed so material removal will not impact existing paved roads. The recovery project is anticipated to continue for three and a half to five years and remove approximately 352,000 cubic yards of material from the lakebed. Over the course of many years this project has proceeded through a conceptual design phase as well as permitting (Army Corp, Department of Fish and Wildlife, CEQA {including biological and archeological studies}, Water Quality) and is finally ready to enter the engineering design phase. Engineering design will be fully funded by an IRWM (Integrated Regional Water Management) grant which was recently authorized this spring. A Request for Proposals was distributed and three firms responded with proposals; Anchor QEA of San Francisco, CA; FlowWest of Oakland, CA; and PACE Advanced Water Engineering of Fountain Valley, CA. A Consultant Selection Board was convened in accordance with County policy and the recommendation of the CSB was to begin negotiations with the highest ranked firm, Anchor QEA. Negotiations have completed and an agreeable scope and price has been identified and incorporated into the proposed agreement for services. Attached for your consideration is an agreement for Engineering Design Services for the project.

Recommended Action

Approve Agreement Between the County of Lake on behalf of CSA-02, Spring Valley and Anchor QEA, LLC for Engineering and Design Services for the Spring Valley Lake Recovery Project for an Amount not to Exceed Four Hundred Twenty Nine Thousand Four Hundred Fifty Seven Dollars and No Cents ($429,457.00), and Authorize the Chair to Sign.

Executive Summary

The Lake County Watershed Protection District (District) applied for and was accepted as a partner organization with the Local Government Commissions (LGC) CivicSpark Fellowship for the 2021-2022 service year. The District will receive one (1) CivicSpark Fellow to develop and implement a Clear Lake Shoreline Stewardship Program. The Fellows will work closely with Water Resources staff to utilize what was learned and developed during the previous CivicSparks tenure (2020-2021 Clear Lake Shoreline Assessment and Inventory) and develop, design, and begin implementation of a Shoreline Stewardship Program. Through these efforts, the Fellows will strengthen the effectiveness of the District's Lakebed Management and Aquatic Invasive Plant Management Program by developing outreach, education, and stewardship plans and materials and products. This is a crucial aspect for the Department's task of improving and protecting the public's interest in the waters and the bed of the waters in and around Clear Lake, and to insure that the lands will be used for general statewide interests in furtherance of commerce, navigation, fishery, recreation, and wherever possible and appropriate, preservation of the land and their natural state. CivicSpark is a Governor's Initiative AmeriCorps program dedicated to building capacity for public agencies throughout California in order to address community resilience issues. CivicSpark provides local agencies with Fellows who serve full time for an 11 month service year with each Fellow providing at least 1,700 hours of service dedicated to a capacity building project. All CivicSpark Fellows are selected through a highly competitive national application process, which requires Fellows to pass a state, federal and NSOPR background check, and at minimum to have a college degree in a relevant field. The Fellows are employed through LGC and serve at a placement site for the service year. Fellows salary, insurance, and workers compensation is structured through LGC.

Recommended Action

6.510:30 A.M. - Consideration of urgency ordinance regarding water haulers delivering water to cannabis cultivations Action Item Adopted — Pass
no itemized roll call in the official record
Staff memo

Date: August 24, 2021 · To: The Honorable Lake County Board of Supervisors · From: Bruno Sabatier, Chair and District 2 Supervisor · Subject: Consideration of urgency ordinance regarding water haulers delivering water to cannabis cultivations

Executive Summary

We all have been receiving many complaints about the number of water haulers delivering water across our entire county. Many of these complaints have been regarding water deliveries for cannabis cultivations. It is already currently illegal for water deliveries to occur for legal cannabis grows, illegal grows are already illegal. However, there are no repercussions for water trucks taking part in this endeavor. They can drop off all the water they want to cannabis grows and there are no consequences. Since we are in an exceptional drought, I have been discussing a plan on how to try and curb the use of water trucks in regards to cannabis cultivation. This urgency ordinance would provide guidance to our water haulers and staff. The urgency ordinance would provide administrative penalties for water haulers who do deliver water to cannabis operations. The idea is not to punish water haulers who have many opportunities to haul water for legitimate uses for people having negative experiences with the drought. However, it would punish mainly illegal grows whose plants rely on water to continue to grow, with hopes that if we can't get their grows eradicated, maybe it will be possible to eradicate their garden due to lack of water access. Not applicable

Recommended Action

Approve the urgency ordinance regarding water haulers delivering water to cannabis cultivations

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

Date: August 24, 2021 · To: The Honorable Lake County Board of Supervisors · From: Moke Simon, District 1 Supervisor Jessica Pyska, District 5 Supervisor · Subject: Consideration of Third Amendment to the Joint Powers Agreement Creating the Lake County Community Risk Reduction Authority and authorize the Chair to sign

Executive Summary

On October 16, 2018, the Joint Powers Agreement creating the Lake County Community Risk Reduction Authority (LCCRRA) was approved by the County of Lake Board of Supervisors and the Lake County Watershed Protection District. About that same time, the Lakeport Fire Protection District, the Northshore Fire Protection District, and the South Lake Fire Protection District also agreed to participate in the Agreement. This Agreement was amended on December 18, 2018 to include the Kelseyville Fire Department as a participant. The Agreement was amended a second time on or about February 26, 2019 to include the Lake County Fire Protection District as a participant. The LCCRRA would like to expand the membership in the Authority to other public agencies and thereby continue its mission to develop programs and to secure funding to address, reduce, and manage risks due to fire from hazardous vegetation, earthquakes, and various environmental causes as a united community of public agencies in Lake County. The Authority now requests that the Agreement be amended to add four additional public agencies as voting members to the Agreement: A representative of the County's tribal nations, a representative from the City of Lakeport, a representative from the City of Clearlake, and a representative of the County's independent water districts. Local tribal nations, water purveyors and cities will be participating in the Lake County Community Risk Reduction Authority, with more to join in the future.

Recommended Action

Approve the Third Amendment to the Joint Powers Agreement Creating the Lake County Community Risk Reduction Authority and authorize the Chair to sign.

Executive Summary

As your Board is aware, as a preventative measure, a number of jurisdictions are offering free admission to local events for persons who receive COVID-19 vaccinations on-site, prior to entry. I have been in communication with our local fairgrounds and with Public Health about the feasibility of offering this here during the upcoming Lake County Fair. Fairgrounds officials are receptive, and the Public Health team is committed. With this in mind, I am asking that your Board to authorize me to work out an agreement with the fairgrounds to reimburse at the pre-admission rate, for the cost of tickets issued to persons who are vaccinated on-site prior to fair entry. Based on data from the fairgrounds in terms of the average number of admissions and capacity of our Public Health team, I am estimating the potential to serve up to 1,000 persons in this manner, for a maximum cost of $9,000. This expense is allowable under the American Rescue Plan Act.

Recommended Action

Authorize the County Administrative Officer to enter into an agreement with the Lake County Fair, for a maximum compensation not to exceed $9,000, for purchase of fair admission tickets to be issued to persons receiving COVID-19 vaccines on-site, prior to fair entry.
