EXECUTIVE SUMMARY: The Health Services Department is requesting Board Approval to amend the adopted budget for Fiscal Year 2013-2014 and allow the department to use budgeted reserves in both the 4011 and 4012 budget units for building repairs and to re-roof the building. The total cost of all repairs and the new roof will be $67,500. The Health Services Department has experienced multiple roofing leaks which have become difficult to find and repair. The roof is at least 30 years old and has never been replaced. We are experiencing continued leaks which if not resolved will cause irreparable damage to the building. The Department did not use our budgeted reserves for our software project as we were able to invoice the cost to programs. Funding to support the roof and internal repairs will be pulled from the Department's reserves. If you should have any questions or require additional information, please contact Denise Pomeroy, Health Services Administrative Manager or myself at 263-1090.

7.8Approve letters to State Senator Evans and Assemblywoman Yamada supporting early repayment of Highway User Tax Account (HUTA) loans to the State General Fund and suggesting an alternative allocation of the early loan repayment proceeds and authorize the Chair to sign. Report proposed on consent
Staff memo

Date: May 15, 2014 · To: Board of Supervisors · From: Scott DeLeon, Public Works Director · Subject: Highway User Tax Account (HUTA)

EXECUTIVE SUMMARY: In 2010 the State borrowed $337 million in Highway User Tax Account (HUTA) revenues to bolster the State General Fund. The Governor's May Revision to the Administration's proposed budget for FY 2014-15 included repayment of the loan. However, the proposed loan repayment would distribute the funds in a manner different than how the funds would have been distributed in 2010. Staff has prepared the attached letters recommending to State Senator Evans and State Assemblywoman Yamada that the distribution of funds follow the formula that guides the distribution of the incremental gas excise tax revenues that were the source of the loan, with 44% allocated to cities and counties and 56% percent allocated to the state. For the County of Lake this recommendation amounts to $321,863 as opposed to the Governor's proposal of $172,848. FISCAL IMPACT: __ None __Budgeted __Non-Budgeted Estimated Cost: Amount Budgeted: Additional Requested: Annual Cost (if planned for future years): FISCAL IMPACT (Narrative): STAFFING IMPACT (if applicable): ..Recommended Action RECOMMENDED ACTION: Staff recommends your Board approval of the attached letters to State Senator Evans and State Senator Yamada and authorize the Chair to sign.

I. PROPERTY OUTLINE: Property Owner: John Wesley Stoddard Location: 10445 Windjammer Court, Kelseyville, CA 95451 APN: 043-432-29-000 Zoning: "R1-RD", Single-Family Residential-Residential Design Case #: 14-0039 II. ABATEMENT SUMMARY On March 7, 2014, a Summary Abatement Notice was prepared and posted at 10445 Windjammer Court, within the Clearlake Riviera Subdivision, and mailed, certified to the property owner of record due to occupancy of a travel trailer on a vacant lot with no septic system and no water service. Several complaints had been filed by area residents. The Summary Abatement Notice provided Mr. Stoddard with 72 hours to remove the travel trailer from the property. On April 21, 2014 the Community Development Department obtained and posted an abatement warrant and served 24 hour notice to Mr. Stoddard. On April 22, 2014 a local contractor removed the travel trailer from the site by way of a flatbed trailer, and hauled it to Five-Star Towing in Middletown where it was impounded. The registered owners of the travel trailer were notified by certified mailing on April 24th that their trailer had been impounded and that they had 10 days to pay the fees and recover it. ..Recommended Action III. RECOMMENDATION: Staff recommends the Board of Supervisors confirm the assessment of $1,087.34 and direct staff to Record a Notice of Lien against the property. The cost to remove the travel trailer from the site to an impound yard was $600. The administrative costs increased on this case due to the need for an abatement warrant, and amounted to $487.34. Sample Motion: I move that the assessment of $1,087.34 for nuisance abatement on property located at 10445 Windjammer Court, Kelseyville, CA, also known as Assessor's Parcel Number 043-432-29-00, and owned by John Wesley Stoddard be confirmed and the Enforcement Official be directed to prepare and have recorded in the office of the Lake County Recorder, a Notice of Lien in the amount of $1,087.34 pursuant to Lake County Ordinance Code Chapter 13, Section 13-43.

Staff memo

Date: May 14, 2014 · To: Board of Supervisors · From: Alan D. Flora, Deputy Administrative Officer Giselle Stahl, Trails Coordinator · Subject: Consideration of grant application(s) through CALTRANS' Active Transportation Program for projects including a trailway in Mount Konocti County Park and pedestrian improvements in Upper Lake

EXECUTIVE SUMMARY: Your Board is aware of the County's desire to provide a method of access to Mount Konocti County Park that remains entirely in a public right-of-way. Several options and alternatives have been analyzed over the past several years, but the ideal solution of building a new road/trail that would bypass private property, remains cost prohibitive with local funds. CALTRANS' Active Transportation Program (ATP) offers the potential to receive state funding for the design, engineering, and construction of this project. The training for this program was held only a few weeks ago and since that time County staff has been working to identify the project's eligibility under the (ATP) program. With a deadline for application on May 21, 2014 it is important to determine the Board's willingness to pursue funding for this project. Mount Konocti County Park remains a key recreational area within the County, and continues to be a priority for County staff in identifying methods of expanding the potential for enjoyment of this area. However, it is important to note that this project may be in competition for funding of other local projects. The proposed project for Mount Konocti County Park would include the planning, design, and construction of an approximately 0.8-mile multi-use trailway (aka "access road") for pedestrians, cyclists, and equestrians that would bypass approximately 2,000 ft. of the existing access road (Konocti Road), which traverses through private land and passes within 200 ft. off a private landowners' residence, and within 20 ft. of a private landowner's outbuildings used for orchard and vineyard operations. This project's multi-use trailway will also need to accommodate service and maintenance vehicles to Mount Konocti County Park. The Department of Public Works is also preparing an application for funding for two pedestrian improvement projects in Upper Lake. These two projects will provide curb, gutter, and sidewalk on portions of First Street between Government Street and Clover Valley Road, and Second Street between Main Street and Middle Creek Road. Details on this application will be provided by the Department under separate cover. On September 26, 2013, Governor Brown signed legislation creating the Active Transportation Program (ATP) in the Department of Transportation (Senate Bill 99, Chapter 359 and Assembly Bill 101, Chapter 354). The ATP consolidates existing federal and state transportation programs, including the Transportation Alternatives Program (TAP), Bicycle Transportation Account (BTA), and State Safe Routes to School (SR2S), into a single program with a focus to make California a national leader in active transportation. The ATP program focuses on funding for projects that encourage the increased use of active forms of transportation. One of the primary goals in the program is to insure that disadvantaged communities fully share in the benefits of the program, of which Lake County qualifies. A local cash match is not required for the proposed applications due to the local status as a disadvantaged community. Disadvantaged communities are defined as those where the median household income is less than 80% of the statewide median, based on the most current census tract level data from the American Community Survey. The final applications for funding are currently being completed and will be presented to the Board for review, on or before, the meeting on May 20, 2014. FISCAL IMPACT: _X_ None __Budgeted __Non-Budgeted Estimated Cost: Amount Budgeted: Additional Requested: Annual Cost (if planned for future years): FISCAL IMPACT (Narrative): STAFFING IMPACT (if applicable): ..Recommended Action RECOMMENDED ACTION: Staff recommends the Board clarify priority projects and approve the proposed grant application(s) as appropriate.

9.3Consideration of the Safety, Health and Productivity Effort (SHAPE) and Employee Assistance (EAP) Programs for Employees Action Item
Staff memo

Date: May 5, 2014 · To: The Honorable Board of Supervisors · From: Kathy Ferguson Human Resources Director · Subject: SHAPE Program for Employees

EXECUTIVE SUMMARY: Staff is pleased to present SHAPE to your Board for consideration. SHAPE (Safety, Health, and Productivity Effort) is a pilot program and partnership between the County of Lake, CSAC EIA and Alliant. This program is the result of many months of input and discussion with the Department Heads, the Group Insurance Committee, Administration, County Counsel, and Human Resources. Alliant and CSAC EIA representatives will join us for this agenda item to be available to answer any of your Board's questions. Briefly, SHAPE focuses on two areas: Worker's Compensation: Risk Management will take the lead in this area and will do so through various trainings, and safety meetings/information. Risk will also be implementing a more effective way to make Worker's Compensation claims and to provide early assessments as to the best initial treatment for employees. Well-Being/Wellness: Human Resources and the Group Insurance Committee will take the lead with the Well-Being/Wellness side of the program. The primary focus in this area will be the use of a Managed Health Network (MHN), an Employee Assistance Program (EAP) with Wellness Coaching services. This program provides a one-on-one Wellness Coach for each participating employee. Additionally, the County will encourage participation in other local wellness efforts. SHAPE is designed to enhance individual employee safety and well-being as well as to develop a County culture that supports safety and well-being. Over time, it is also the goal of SHAPE to reduce employee health insurance premiums and Worker's Compensation premiums as well as to increase productivity through fewer absences. A recognition program using the theme of trees, branches, and leaves will be incorporated as a visual reminder of the employee's and County's commitment to safety and well-being. FISCAL IMPACT: __ None __Budgeted __Non-Budgeted Estimated Cost: Amount Budgeted: Additional Requested: Annual Cost (if planned for future years): FISCAL IMPACT (Narrative): STAFFING IMPACT (if applicable): ..Recommended Action RECOMMENDED ACTION: Staff recommends that your Board approve the SHAPE program in concept for implementation on July 1, 2014 and direct the Human Resources Director to conduct meet and confer with all represented employee units through a vote of the Group Insurance Committee.

9.6Advanced from May 13, 2014 - Consideration of proposed Ordinance amending Chapter 3, Article IV of the Ordinance Code of the County of Lake regarding the Right to Farm Ordinance (SECOND READING) Ordinance
Staff memo

Date: May 7, 2014 · To: Board of Supervisors · From: Richard Coel, Community Development Director · Subject: Proposed Amendments to the Chapter 3, Article IV of the Lake County Code: Right to Farm Ordinance

Attachments

A. Existing Right to Farm Ordinance B. Proposed Ordinance Amending the Right to Farm Ordinance BACKGROUND This issue was continued from the April 22nd Board hearing due to concerns with the cost of providing Right to Farm notifications annually in the tax billings. Staff had provided a rough estimate of the cost of annual noticing of approximately $2,500 per year. During the past few weeks, staff was able to obtain an estimate from Linnell Printing of $540 plus tax for the cost to print 21,000 copies on thick paper and cut the them into 1/3 page size notices. The total cost for copies and having the notices inserted into the tax bills would be $930 per year. Staff has worked with the Lake County Farm Bureau and the Lake County Association of Realtors to identify options for providing noticing that does not involve recordation of the real estate disclosure statements. Mailing of the notices in the annual tax bills was identified as the best, most effective option. The second best option identified was to have the notice printed on the back of the tax envelope. The Tax Collector/Treasurer is working with their contractor to obtain a cost estimate for printing on the back of the envelopes, and is expected to have an estimate by May 12th. Another potential option that had already been discussed by the Farm Bureau and Association of Realtors, but generally was not supported, was to require the real estate agents to provide copies of the signed notices to the Community Development Department where the notices will be filed by APN for long term storage, in lieu of recordation. Part of the concern with this option was that it does not capture private land transactions were no realtor is involved. Staff with share any additional information concerning the cost of printing on the pack of the tax envelopes during the hearing on May 13th, and we await your Board's direction on how to proceed. ..Recommended Action RECOMMENDATION Staff recommends that the Board of Supervisors take the following actions: A. Find that the proposed text amendment to the Right to Farm Ordinance is not subject to CEQA pursuant to Section 15061(b)(3) of the CEQA Guidelines. B. Approve the proposed ordinance text amendments as described in Exhibit B for the following reasons: 1. Recordation of the Right to Farm Disclosure statement for real estate transactions is not feasible. 2. The public will be better served by including the Right to Farm Notice in the annual property tax and supplemental billings, since this will provide regular notifications to all property owners, not just new owners during initial property purchase. Sample Motions: Exemption from CEQA I move the Board of Supervisors find that the proposed text amendment to the Right to Farm Ordinance is not subject to CEQA pursuant to Section 15061(b)(3) of the CEQA Guidelines, with the findings listed in the Memo dated April 4, 2014. Ordinance Text Amendment Approval I move to offer the ordinance I move that the Board of Supervisors adopt the proposed Ordinance text amendment to Chapter 3, Article IV of the Lake County Code, for the reasons listed in the Memo dated April 4, 2014.
