Field conditions during construction required less large rock slope protection for the construction of the fish ladder; however more aggregate base gravel was utilized in the pools than was originally estimated. Also the length of pipe replaced was 6' longer than the estimated length and the cement slurry backfill quantity was increased.

Staff memo

Date: October 22, 2015 · To: Board of Supervisors · From: Jill Ruzicka, Deputy County Administrative Officer · Subject: (a) Waive the Competitive Selection Process; and (b) Approve Agreement between the County of Lake and This is Crowd USA, Inc., for on-line advertising campaign creation, monthly management, optimization and reporting, amount not to exceed $14,640 and authorize the Chair to sign.

EXECUTIVE SUMMARY: The County of Lake contracted with This is Crowd USA, Inc. in April 2015 to create a new Lake County Visitor website. The contract was completed within budget and on time, and fulfilled the technical requirements laid out in the Request for Proposal (RFP) and Contract. The relationship between the Lake County Marketing Program and Crowd USA was positive. Representatives of Crowd USA visited Lake County numerous times, and created relationship with numerous tourism stakeholders. The new website was launched at the beginning of July and discussions immediately began between the Lake County Marketing Program, Steve Denero, as the County's Marketing Consultant, and Crowd USA, Inc. on strategies to raise awareness of website to key influencers; drive traffic to the website; and collect, manage and analyze user date, all ultimately improving the delivery of the Visit Lake County message. The result of these discussions was the proposal to create an online advertising campaign as described in Exhibits A and B. These plans were discussed and created in July 2015. Unfortunately due to the Rocky, Jerusalem and Valley Fires, there has been a staffing shortage in the administrative office to complete the contracts. Given the fire activity this summer, is it now of even greater importance to advertise the positive attributes of Lake County to help in the economic recovery as well as the housing, infrastructure and social recovery. It should be noted that during the fires, Crowd USA, Inc. has gone above and beyond their contract to assist in keeping a positive marketing presence for Lake County while County staff was working within the Emergency Operations Center. The County's consultant selection policy allows a waiver of the competitive selection process for various reasons, especially when the cost os leas then $25,000. It is not uncommon for the process to be waived when the cost is less than $25,000. In awarding this the proposed contract to Crowd USA, staff requests your Board waive the consultant selection process for the following reasons: Crowd USA, Inc. would be marketing and analyzing a product (the visitor website) which they created; therefore they have an unprecedented familiarity with the product. Crowd USA, Inc. will have the intimate knowledge of Lake County to begin the marketing campaign immediately with minimal start-up meetings. Crowd USA was recently awarded a social media contract for Visit Lake County, California social media accounts. As the contractor of Visit Lake County, California social media services, Crowd USA, Inc. will be able to provide seamless messaging between the social media channels and the website. Crowd USA, Inc. has been working closely with Pulse Point, Inc., the San Francisco-based content marketing company that the County has contracted with; therefore, that important relationship can be continued with minimal County introduction. The Administrative Office is severely understaffed, and Crowd USA, Inc. is already extremely familiar with Lake County tourism, tourism stakeholders and current marketing plan; therefore Crowd USA, Inc. could immediately begin the important work of marketing Lake County in a positive light. ..Recommended Action RECOMMENDED ACTION: (a) Waive the Competitive Selection Process; and (b) Approve Agreement between the County of Lake and This is Crowd USA, Inc., for on-line advertising campaign creation, monthly management, optimization and reporting, amount not to exceed $14,640 and authorize the Chair to sign.

Most surrounding agencies have agreed that this is a generous amount of time to offer for owner redemption. This being the case, on 10/29, these animals will be available for adoption. Many local community members have shown an interest in these animals and we would like to help facilitate their immediate re-homing with a reduced price offering. In addition to waiving the adoption fee as already approved by the Board for special events, we would like to waive all the remaining fees, with the exception of the spay or neuter cost. The following would be the adoption fees for fire related animals: Male Dogs $80 Male Cats $55 Female Dogs <60 $90 Female Cats $65 Female Dogs >60 $105 Merck, our microchip provider, has generously donated a couple hundred microchips for fire related animals. So each animal would receive a free microchip as well. As these animals have been displaced from their homes for some time, we would like to help them return to a normal a life as soon as possible. Reducing our normal adoption fee will help facilitate this process. ..Recommended Action RECOMMENDED ACTION: It is the department's recommendation that your Board approve the adjusted adoption fees on all fire related animals.

Staff memo

Date: October 9, 2015 · To: Board of Supervisors · From: Richard Coel, Community Development Director Prepared by: Mireya G. Turner, Assistant Planner · Subject: Van Eck Estates Tentative Subdivision Map Extension SDX 15-03, SD 05-03, RZ 05-04, DV 06-03, IS 05-70, Supervisorial District 4

ATTACHMENTS: 1. Vicinity Map 2. Tentative Subdivision 05-03 Conditions 3. Agency Comments 4. Tentative Map 5. Staff Report for Planning Commission hearing on October 6, 2015 I. SUMMARY The Van Eck Estates Subdivision project proposes the division of approximately 7 acres to create 16 residential lots, located near the Lakeview Estates and Riviera Heights Subdivisions. On October 8, 2015, the Planning Commission approved the previously approved mitigated negative declaration for SD 05-03, finding that it met the requirements of Section 15162(a) of CEQA Guidelines and that no additional environmental review was required. Additionally, they approved a recommendation to the Board of Supervisors to approve a two-year extension of the Van Eck Estates Subdivision project. II. PROJECT DESCRIPTION Applicant: John Van Eck, 4965 Steelhead Drive, Kelseyville, CA 95451 Owner: Same Location: 3640 Lakeview Estates Drive, Kelseyville APN: 009-008-10 General Plan Designation: Low Density Residential Zoning: "R1" Single-family Residential Approval Date: June 22, 2006 Extension Requested: Two years to June 22, 2017 III. DISCUSSION A tentative subdivision map was approved by the Planning Commission on June 22, 2006. On September 28, 2006, the Planning Commission approved a deviation to allow for the construction of an off-site 4' wide shoulder in lieu of construction of sidewalks on-site. A series of state initiated extensions provided automatic extensions to qualified tentative subdivision maps for the next seven years. The State Subdivision Map Act allows the granting of extensions for a period or periods not exceeding a total of five years. This is the applicant's first extension request. The Rivieras Area Plan was adopted on January 29, 2007. Although this subdivision predates the area plan, it is consistent with Policy 5.2.1b, encouraging infill development to be consistent with the surrounding development. The applicant seeks an extension to complete the various conditions required for the filing of the final map. In 2010, the Office of Drinking Water imposed a water connection moratorium on CSA #20 which remains in effect. The final map cannot be recorded until water connections are available. Comments from Special Districts (see attached) state that improvements to this water system are in their final stages. Staff recommends a two (2) year time extension be granted for the subdivision map in order to complete the conditions necessary to record the final map. The Lake County Subdivision Ordinance allows the granting of extensions for a period or periods not exceeding a total of five years. This is the applicant's first extension request. ..Recommended Action IV. RECOMMENDATION Staff recommends that the Board of Supervisors take the following action: A. Find that the previously mitigated negative declaration based on Initial Study IS 05-70 meets the requirements of Section 15162(a) of the State CEQA Guidelines, and that no additional environmental review need be prepared, with the following findings: 1. There has been no change in the project which would create new significant environmental impacts. 2. There has been no substantial change in circumstances resulting in new significant environmental impacts. 3. No new information of substantial importance to the project has become available. B. Approve a two-year extension of time for SD 05-03 with the following findings: 1. This project is consistent with the Lake County General Plan, Zoning Ordinance, Subdivision Ordinance, and the Lakeport Area Plan. 2. This time extension request is consistent with the Lake County Subdivision Ordinance and the State Subdivision Map Act. 3. The subdivision map is still compatible with neighboring land uses. 4. There has been no substantial change in circumstances resulting in new significant environmental impacts. Sample Motions: A. Reconsideration of Previously Approved Mitigated Negative Declaration I move that the Mitigated Negative Declaration, which was previously prepared for SD 05-03 does meet the requirements of Section 15162(a) of the CEQA Guidelines, and that no additional environmental review need be prepared with the findings listed in the staff report dated October 9, 2015. B. Time Extension I move that the Board of Supervisors approve an extension of time for SD 05-04 for a period of two years to June 22, 2017, with the findings listed in the staff report dated October 9, 2015.
