The proposed contract includes a continuation of services provided by the Chamber in the past, including operating the Lakeport Visitor Information Center, supporting the County's Invasive Species Prevention Program, providing lead direction for the completion of the 2015 Destinations Magazine, representing Lake County at three (3) sports and/or travel-related shows, collaborating with the County and other local organizations for promoting tourism and economic development in Lake County, and providing technical assistance and other support to business associations in the unincorporated communities throughout the County. The Chamber's partnership with the County for support of marketing and economic development programs is important to our mutual success. The leadership provided by the Chamber's Board of Directors and Chief Executive Officer is essential to successfully leveraging scarce financial resources. As included in recently approved contracts, the proposed contract continues to prohibit the Chamber from using any County-provided funds to engage in political activity involving support or opposition of any candidate for elective office. Pursuant to your Board's direction on September 16, the contract has been revised to include requirements for the Chamber to record performance measures and provide an annual report to your Board (see section 1.1.I and Exhibit A.) The contract has also been revised to include a couple of items that were inadvertently left out of the version presented previously: 1) the Chamber is to continue operating a Visitor Information Center at its offices at 875 Lakeport Boulevard, Lakeport (see section 1.1.A); and 2) the Chamber is to manage an on-line visitor event calendar (see section 1.1.H). ..Recommended Action RECOMMENDED ACTION: Staff recommends your Board approve the proposed contract with the Lake County Chamber of Commerce in the amount of $50,000 for the aforementioned services, and authorize the Chair to sign.

Staff memo

Date: September 16, 2014 · To: Board of Directors, Lake County Watershed Protection District · From: Scott De Leon, Water Resources Director · Subject: Provide Direction to Staff Regarding Flood Proofing of the PG&E Transmission Line and Local Network as Required by the Middle Creek Flood Damage Reduction and Ecosystem Restoration Project

EXECUTIVE SUMMARY: We request the Board of Supervisors, sitting as the Board of Directors of the Lake County Watershed Protection District (District) provide direction to staff regarding flood proofing of the PG&E transmission lines and local network that cross the Middle Creek Flood Damage Reduction and Ecosystem Restoration Project (Project) area. We request one half hour for the discussion. In 1995, at the request of the District, the U.S. Army Corps of Engineers (USACE) began work on the Project. The Feasibility Study was completed in 2004 and the Board of supervisors approved the California Environmental Quality Act (CEQA) Environmental Impact Report (EIR) in May 2005. Due to numerous issues, the USACE have not proceeded with design work. Through the Flood Protection Corridor Program grants, the District has begun property acquisition for the Project. Property acquisition costs will be counted towards the required local match for USACE funding (35% match required). Lands, Easements, Rights-of Way, Relocations and Disposal Areas (LERRDs) costs that are in excess of the required local match are eligible for reimbursement from the USACE after the project is complete IF there is funding available. Land acquisition and relocation costs were already anticipated to exceed the required 35% match. A major PG&E transmission line crosses the northern edge of the Project area, see attached map. Breaching of the levees will induce more frequent flooding of six of the transmission towers, see attached map. Five of the towers have their foundations in ground that is below the normal full lake level of 7.56 feet Rumsey, and one tower has its foundation just above the full lake level. All towers will require retrofit of their foundations to make them resistant to damage from the more frequent flooding. To provide year round access, PG&E is also requiring construction of a "boardwalk" to allow service vehicles to access the transmission towers. During the preparation of the Reconnaissance Study and the Feasibility Study, it was determined that flood proofing of infrastructure, including elevation of the PG&E transmission towers, elevating approximately one quarter mile of State Highway 20 and constructing a new bridge and elevating a portion of the Nice-Lucerne Cutoff were required for the project to properly function. It was the District staff's impression that retrofitting of infrastructure was part of the project construction. In 2012, we were informed by USACE staff that retrofitting of infrastructure was a local cost as part of LERRDs and needed to be paid by the local sponsor as an upfront cost. The addition of all the retrofitting costs (probably in excess of $10 million) to land acquisition is a substantial financial burden, with no guarantee of reimbursement. PG&E Distribution and Transmission teams have reviewed the scope of this project and have provided a "very preliminary" estimate for flood proofing of the transmission line and reconfiguration of the local electric network of $7,250,000. This does not include rights of way, acquisition cost and special permitting cost that may be required. These figures are very preliminary and have been derived without benefit of preparing a formal estimate and are provided to give us a very rough cost estimate for planning purposes. In order to obtain a more accurate cost to relocate PG&E's Distribution and Transmission facilities and to begin preliminary engineering and land work, the District will need to provide PG&E with an advance deposit of $75,000. The District may request at any time that PG&E stop preliminary work on this project. Any actual costs incurred up to that time will deducted from the advance deposit and the balance, if any, refunded without interest. We are requesting that the Board of Supervisors provide direction to Water Resources Department staff on how to proceed with PG&E. 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: We are requesting that the Board of Supervisors provide direction to Water Resources Department staff on how to proceed with PG&E.

Date: September 16, 2014 · To: BOARD OF SUPERVISORS · From: Linda Morris, LMFT, MAC Interim Behavioral Health Director · Subject: Agreement between the County of Lake and Lake County Office of Education - Safe Schools Healthy Students Program and the County of Lake for School-Based Specialty Mental Health Services for Fiscal Year 2014-2015 EXECUTIVE SUMMARY: Attached, for your approval, is the Agreement between the County of Lake and the Lake County Office of Education - Safe Schools Healthy Students Program for School-Based Specialty Mental Health Services for Fiscal Year 2014-2015. Under the Agreement, Lake County Behavioral Health is obligated to pay a maximum contract amount of $428,376. BACKGROUND AND DISCUSSION: Lake County Office of Education (LCOE) has submitted a proposal to provide school-based services to approximately 100 students in grades K-12 at various school sites throughout the county. Having school-based services available provides children and youth opportunities for successful learning experiences that will enhance the quality of their life. For some children, the school site is a safe environment, and they often have their first meal of the day at the school site. Children who receive school-based services have increased attendance, improved attitudes regarding school, and improved peer relations in school. Under the Agreement, Lake County Office of Education as the approved Contractor for Lake County Office of Education - Special Education Local Plan Area (LCOE/SELPA), will provide Medi-Cal Specialty Mental Health Services to Lake County Medi-Cal beneficiaries who have been identified through LAKE SELPA as eligible to receive services under the Educational Related Mental Health Services (ERMHS) program. This Agreement provides LCOE with access to Federal Financial Participation (FFP) funds which enables LCOE to provide more services at the school sites. LCOE will be providing the remaining balance of the cost of these services in advance to LCBH, who will in turn pay the full cost back to LCOE in order to bill the services and access FFP. Although the net cost to LCBH is zero, a ten percent administrative fee will be charged to LCOE to cover the cost of contract management and billing. FISCAL IMPACT: __ None _X_Budgeted __Non-Budgeted Estimated Cost: $428,376 Amount Budgeted: $800,000 Additional Requested: N/A Annual Cost (if planned for future years): N/A

FISCAL IMPACT (Narrative): The amount budgeted for School Based Services for FY 14-15 is $800,000. The maximum amount of this contract is $428,376. The contract is funded through Medi-Cal reimbursement of the Federal Financial Participation (FFP) percentage (50%). As this Agreement provides LCOE with access to Federal Financial Participation (FFP) funds, LCOE will be providing the remaining balance of the cost of these services in advance to LCBH, who will in turn pay the full cost back to LCOE in order to bill the services and access FFP. In addition, Lake County Behavioral Health will receive 10% of the amount of services billed as administrative cost reimbursement. STAFFING IMPACT (if applicable): N/A ..Recommended Action RECOMMENDED ACTION: The Lake County Interim Behavioral Health Director requests approval of the Agreement between the Lake County Office of Education - Safe Schools Healthy Students Program and the County of Lake for the amount of $428,376 and to authorize the Board Chair to sign the Agreement.
