Staff memo
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) I am recommending your Board nominate Supervisor Pyska to serve on the Wildland Fire Mitigation and Management Commission, which is being formed by the U.S. Department of Agriculture, the Department of the Interior and the Federal Emergency Management Agency.
The Commission is seeking non-federal volunteer members from diverse backgrounds to serve. The Commission will prepare policy recommendations and submit them to Congress. Non-federal members will include state, local, Tribal, territory and non-government partners with experience in preventing, mitigating and managing wildland fires and the wildland-urban interface. Preference will be given to applicants from areas of high wildfire risk and as your Board is well aware, Lake County most certainly meets that criteria given our local/state/federal wildfire disasters since 2015, consuming more than 60% of our landmass and more than 5.5% of our local housing stock. This is an outstanding opportunity for Supervisor to represent Lake County on this important Commission, which will function over the next 1.5 years, starting late spring 2022.

5.4Approve Amendment No.1 to the FY 2021-22 Agreement Between County of Lake and Ever Well Health Systems for a New Contract Maximum of $101,700.00 and Authorize the Board Chair to Sign.
Agreement
passed on consent
Staff memo
Executive Summary
Lake County Behavioral Health Services is contracted with Ever Well Health Systems for bed days in a Residential Crisis Facility which provides intensive residential services to people with severe mental illness. This facility provide 24/7 care and can support individuals with high-level, co-occurring medical needs. LCBHS has had one client placed there since 09/01/2020, which is 547 days at the time of writing this memorandum.
This placement is exactly what this client needs. In early 2020, LCBHS received notice from Davis Guest Home, a Board and Care facility, of their intent to discharge the client because they had become more medically complex than could be managed. Our team worked for months trying to place the client into a more medically appropriate setting. Eventually, the client was sent out of Davis Guest Home for medical reasons to Doctor's Medical Center, an acute care facility. The client remained there from 6/27/20 - 9/1/20. Doctor's Medical Center and LCBHS worked on trying to find an appropriate placement for the client. Denial after denial would come in. Thankfully, Ever Well has been able to meet both the client's physical and mental health needs, including dialysis treatment 3x\weekly.
This contract Amendment increases the contract by $26,000.
Recommended Action
Approve Amendment No.1 to the FY 2021-22 Agreement Between County of Lake and Ever Well Health Systems for a New Contract Maximum of $101,700.00 and Authorize the Board Chair to Sign.

5.7Approve Continuation of Resolution Authorizing Teleconfered Meetings during a State of Emergency Continue to Exist
Action Item
passed on consent
Staff memo
Executive Summary
Assembly Bill 361 was enacted on September 16, 2021. Assembly Bill 361 authorizes the
County to use teleconferencing for public meetings without following certain requirements of the
Brown Act. Assembly Bill 361 essentially continues, with some limitations, the ability of local governments to meet virtually during a state- proclaimed State of Emergency as local governments have been authorized to do pursuant to Executive Orders of the Governor.
On September 28, 2021, your Board adopted the attached Resolution whereby you made findings authorizing teleconferenced meetings to continue. Every 30 days during the proclaimed State of Emergency and/or the period during which state or local officials have imposed or recommended social distancing measures, the legislative body acting under the teleconference exemptions must make findings as to whether the circumstances explained above still apply. The legislative body must find that it reconsidered the circumstances of the State of Emergency and that one of the following circumstances exist:
- The emergency continues to directly impact the ability of members to safety meet in person; OR
- State or local officials continue to impose or recommend measures to propose social distancing." (Gov. Code sec. 54953(e)(3).)
Your Board may make those findings by motion and continue to allow teleconferenced meetings pursuant to AB 361 and the Resolution previously adopted.
If your Board cannot make these findings by majority vote, then it will no longer be exempt from the physical public access, quorum, and public comment opportunity rules applied to teleconferenced meetings under subsection 54953(b)(3).

Action Item
passed on consent
Staff memo
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.

5.14Approve Continuation of an Emergency Declaration for Drought Conditions
Action Item
passed on consent
Staff memo
Executive Summary
Pursuant to Chapter 6, Article 1 of the Lake County Code empowers the Director of Emergency Services to proclaim the existence or threatened existence of a local emergency when Lake County is affected by, or likely to be affected by a public calamity and the Board of Supervisors is not in session. During the existence of this local emergency, the powers, functions and duties of the Director of Emergency Services and the emergency organization of the County shall be those prescribed by state law, and by ordinance and resolutions of this County, approved by the Board of Supervisors, and by the Lake Operational Area Emergency Operations Plan, as approved by the Board of Supervisors.
On April 21, 2021, the Governor of the State of California proclaimed a State of Emergency for the Counties of Sonoma and Mendocino due to extremely low reservoir levels and drought conditions. Inasmuch, Lake County water table levels are at significantly to critically low levels and are being continuously monitored.
Based upon low water levels, the County may have to consider measures to address the water shortages. These measures may include taking steps to conserve water by practicing water conservation efforts, including, but not limited to repairing leaking plumbing, limiting non-essential watering, limiting car washing, filling bathtubs halfway or less, using high-efficient appliances, reducing shower times, only washing full loads of laundry, turning off water when brushing teeth or shaving, planting drought resistant landscaping and implementing other practices that reduce water consumption. Short or long-term solutions are costly; however, the County may be eligible for State or Federal assistance should the need arise to address drought issues if conditions persist.
Therefore, the declaration of an emergency will allow the County to qualify for funding that has been specifically set aside for drought relief purposes. Programs within the State focus on ground water management, conservation and recapture/recycle initiatives.
By declaring a local emergency, the County is taking a pro-active approach to address drought related disaster issues. In addition, with the adoption of a proclamation declaring a state of local emergency, State law requires the Board of Supervisors to review the status of the emergency at least once every 30 days.
Recommended Action
Approve the Continuation of a Proclamation of Emergency Declaration for Drought Conditions.

Action Item
passed on consent
Staff memo
Executive Summary
The FY 21/22 budget for the ISF Central Garage Division (BU 9905) of the Public Works Department was recently modified at mid-year to include appropriations for the purchase of two sport utility vehicles that will be placed in the Central Garage Fleet. Today's item is intended to provide staff with the approval to purchase these replacement vehicles.
Annually, the State of California's Procurement Division, complying with legal competitive bidding requirements, solicits vehicle bids throughout the State of California. A State Contract is issued to the low bidders and the results are published and distributed to local agencies. Local agencies are given the opportunity to purchase these vehicles through the state at the same cost as the state. Due to a lack of inventory, we only received one quote for the vehicles.
In an effort to purchase vehicles locally, vehicle make and models are identified in the State Contract and this detailed information is delivered to our local dealership to solicit their proposals on suggested or equivalent vehicles. Also due to inventory issues, the local vendor was unable to provide a price quotation for these vehicles.
By approving this purchase, your Board concludes that this purchase is being made in accordance with Ordinance 3109 and Section 38.4 Cooperative Purchases of Chapter 2 of the Lake County Code, which allows the County to "piggyback" on other agencies competitively awarded contracts.
