Staff memo

Date: April 26, 2016 · To: BOARD OF SUPERVISORS · From: Kevin L. Thompson, MPA, CATC Interim Behavioral Health Director · Subject: Second Amendment to the Agreement between the County of Lake and Gretchen Mills for the Crisis Counseling Assistance and Training Program. EXECUTIVE SUMMARY: During the Valley Fire, and continuing through the aftermath and the recovery phase, Lake County Behavioral health was called to action under an emergency basis to coordinate a response to help with the wellbeing of all individuals who lost their homes. Urgency was further compounded as a great need was expressed by school officials for the children who had lost their homes in the fire. The destruction of the Valley Fire created a situation that threatened the wellbeing of the most vulnerable of our population and spurred action in obtaining the contractor services necessary to mitigate and reduce the occurrences of Post-Traumatic Stress symptoms. BACKGROUND DISCUSSION: As the County has secured the Crisis Counseling Assistance and Training Program (CCP) funding for the period September 22, 2015 through December 31, 2016, which provides for services immediately following a federal disaster declaration, it is necessary to utilize the service of private-section individuals to provide mental health assistance and training activities to Lake County residents affected by the federally declared major disaster. The private-section individuals are willing and able to provide mental health assistance and training activities to Lake County residents affected by the federally declared major disaster. FISCAL IMPACT: __ None _X_Budgeted __Non-Budgeted Estimated Cost: $14,830 Amount Budgeted: $115,648 Additional Requested: N/A Annual Cost (if planned for future years): N/A

FISCAL IMPACT (Narrative): The contract maximum of $14,830 for this Agreement is allocated from funds from the Grant Agreement between the County of Lake and the Department of Health Care Services for the Crisis Counseling Assistance and Training Program for the period between September 22, 2015 through December 31, 2016.

EXECUTIVE SUMMARY: With the move to Gard Street School we are replacing the desks of most of the staff with cubicles.

7.6Approve advanced step hiring of Andrew Chapman as District Attorney Investigator I, Step 5 due to his extraordinary qualifications. Action Item passed on consent
Staff memo

Date: April 11, 2016 · To: Honorable Members of the Lake County Board of Supervisors · From: Don Anderson, District Attorney · Subject: Approve the Advanced Step Hiring of Andrew Chapman as District Attorney Investigator I, Step 5 Due to His Extraordinary Experience

EXECUTIVE SUMMARY: The District Attorney's Office has attempted for two and one half years to fill two vacant District Attorney Investigator positions. The first hopeful candidate was approved for Advanced Step on April 5, 2016 and is in the final hiring phase. We have been fortunate to find a second exceptional candidate in Andrew Chapman, an 18-year veteran of the California Highway Patrol ("CHP"). Although Mr. Chapman has not worked as a District Attorney Investigator, he spent three and one half years in CHP's Investigative Services Unit, conducting complex criminal investigations. He has earned several training certificates related to investigative work, such as the Robert Presley Core Investigator Course (84 hours), the Sacramento Sheriff Crime Scene Investigation training (60 hours), and the Robert Presley Homicide Course (80 hours). The Director of Human Resources, Kathy Ferguson, supports our request for hiring Mr. Chapman at the stated level based on the number of years of experience he has in law enforcement and the difficulty our Department has had in hiring qualified individuals. Hiring a former law enforcement officer with Mr. Chapman's qualifications versus an individual at an Investigator Trainee level also saves the County approximately $20,000 in training costs as well as four to six months of a paid employee's productivity. FISCAL IMPACT: __ None _X_Budgeted __Non-Budgeted Estimated Cost: Amount Budgeted: Additional Requested: Annual Cost (if planned for future years): FISCAL IMPACT (Narrative): The 2015/16 FY budget has accounted for the hiring of two DA Investigators STAFFING IMPACT (if applicable): None ..Recommended Action RECOMMENDED ACTION: Approve the Advanced Step Hiring of Andrew Chapman as District Attorney Investigator I, Step 5 Due to His Extraordinary Experience

Staff memo

Date: April 13, 2016 · To: Board of Supervisors · From: Scott De Leon, Water Resources Director · Subject: Approval of Out of State Travel for Water Resources Staff to Lake Mead, NV.

EXECUTIVE SUMMARY: In January 2016, the Lake County Watershed Protection District was awarded $24,500 from the Westside Integrated Regional Watershed Management (IRWM) Group for the purpose of retrieving the County's Quagga Boat from Lake Mead and preserving it as a display for use as an outreach tool at fairs, fishing tournaments, and other public events. The Quagga Boat is a non-operational 13.5 foot Bayliner that has been fouled with mussels while moored at a Lake Mead marina since 2012. Staff will be making a series of trips to the Boulder City, Nevada area over the next year to finalize this display. The remaining steps are to have the boat removed from the water, preserve the quagga mussel growth using a lacquer or enamel, secure the boat to a custom trailer, and transporting the display back to Lake County. Due to the nature of the project, up to five trips to Lake Mead may be required by Water Resources staff in order to fully complete the project. The first in the series of trips will occur May 4-8, 2016, but the exact dates of the subsequent trips are unknown at this time. The ultimate goal is to have the Quagga Mussel Boat Display fully operational by spring 2017. All project costs will be funded by the grant up to $24,500. Once exceeded, the Watershed Protection District will be responsible for the remainder of the costs. Pursuant to Board Policy, the Department requests approval for out of state travel for Scott DeLeon, Will Evans, Mark Miller, Carolyn Ruttan, Scott Webb, and Tom Smythe to work on the Quagga Boat display. It is estimated that no more than two staff members will travel at the same time. However, due to the changing nature of the project, it is unclear who those staff members will be for future trips.

Staff memo

Date: April 13, 2016 · To: Board of Supervisors · From: Shane French, Information Technology Director · Subject: ADDENDUM: Approve purchase of Core Firewall hardware, software, subscription, and professional services through state GSA CMAS contract from Dimension Data in the amount of $127,433.64 and authorize Chair to sign statement of work, and authorize IT Director/Asst. Purchasing Agent to issue Purchase Order.

EXECUTIVE SUMMARY: The Information Technology Department is seeking to upgrade its Core Firewall solution and implement enhanced security features to protect county networks and data. The Information Technology Department has selected a Firewall manufacturer, vendor, and work plan that we believe will meet our requirements. BACKGROUND AND DISCUSSION: The County's current Core Firewall is past end-of-life by the manufacturer and is in need of replacement. The current firewall also lacks the capability to detect and protect from modern threats. The Information Technology Department requires a new Firewall system that can detect and mitigate modern threats at multiple layers of the network stack. Additionally, the Information Technology Department requires a platform that will support continued growth within the county network for the foreseeable future. The Information Technology Department has selected a leader in the next-generation firewall market: Palo Alto Networks to replace our current firewall. This system has the capacity, capability, and supportability needed in order to protect the county's internal networks. Additionally, the Information Technology Department will require professional services in order to transition from current systems onto the new firewall. A professional services quotation has been provided by the vendor in order to address all migration needs during the transition. Pricing for equipment, licensing, and professional services are obtained using a competitively bid GSA multiple award schedule via CMAS contract maintained by the California Department of General Services. FISCAL IMPACT: __ None _X_Budgeted __Non-Budgeted Estimated Cost: $127,433.64 Amount Budgeted: $129,000 Additional Requested: N/A Annual Cost (if planned for future years): Maintenance and subscription fees of $11,200 and $32,000 respectively. An increase over the current solution of approximately $6,000/year. FISCAL IMPACT (Narrative): The total cost of equipment, licensing, subscription, and professional services is $127,433.64. This Capital Asset purchase was approved during mid-year budget appropriations. This figure includes year one maintenance and threat-prevention subscription services in the amount of $11,200 for maintenance and $32,000 for subscription services. This will result in approximately $6,000 in additional maintenance costs versus the old Firewall system. STAFFING IMPACT (if applicable): N/A ..Recommended Action RECOMMENDED ACTION: Approve purchase of equipment, software, subscription, and professional services through the state CMAS contract from Dimension Data in the amount of $127,433.64 and authorize IT Director/Asst.

8.39:30 a.m. - Discussion and Consideration of Use of County Owned Property for New Lake Transit Authority Hub Action Item
Staff memo

Date: April 19, 2016 · To: Lake County Board of Supervisors · From: Lake Area Planning Council, Lake Transit Authority, LSC Transportation Consultants Inc. · Subject: Lake Transit Hub Location Plan Study

EXECUTIVE SUMMARY: Lake Transit Authority (LTA) provides public transit service throughout Lake County, including Lakeport and Clearlake, as well as providing connections to Napa County and Mendocino County. An important factor in an effective regional transit network is the transfer point where passengers make connections between routes. The existing primary transfer site at Ray's Food Place in the City of Clearlake includes several deficiencies, particularly pertaining to security issues, inadequate size (requiring buses to turnaround and in some cases board passengers on a privately owned commercial parking lot), safety issues due to lack of curbs, sidewalks, and clearly marked pedestrian areas for some bus operations, poor public image, and a lack of control over land and utilities. To address this, the Lake Area Planning Council (APC) has initiated a study of a new and enhanced transit hub. After initial review of the needs and requirements of a new transfer hub and evaluation of potential sites, the preferred site location is parcel #01004352 owned by Lake County (see attached map). Some of the reasons for choosing this parcel are: * Proximity to existing transfer point for 6 LTA transit routes * Proximity to major transit activity centers such as Walmart, Mental Health Services, Yuba College, Hospital * Ability to accommodate required number of buses at one time * Potential to design a transit center with greater access controls, and which minimizes areas hidden from police, thereby providing better security. * Parcel is already publicly owned The proposed transfer hub would be located on the vacant portion of the parcel south of Center Drive and west of Dam Rd Ext. The new transfer hub could include parking for up to 8 buses, covered passenger waiting area, public restrooms, driver breakroom, LTA office/counter space, and potentially office space for County Social Services or other commercial uses (coffee shop, visitor center, etc). Before continuing with the design phase of the Lake Transit Hub Location Plan Study, LTA and Lake APC would like to determine the possibility of Lake Transit Authority purchasing or leasing the vacant portion of parcel #01004352 from Lake County for the purposes of a new Transfer Hub. 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: Should the Board agree on the use of said County property, direction to staff to initiate the necessary process should be given.

Staff memo

Date: April 26, 2016 · To: Board of Supervisors · From: Supervisor Farrington · Subject: Letter of Opposition to AB 2395, which provides a framework for telecommunication providers to relinquish landline phone service; and authorize Chair to sign

EXECUTIVE SUMMARY: Rural County Representatives of California (RCRC) has requested that Lake County write a letter of opposition to Assembly Bill 2395. AB 2395 attempts to establish a framework for telecommunication providers, such as AT&T to relinquish their traditional landline services and obligations that guarantee basic two-way telephone service via a landline. While on the surface AB 2395 offers consumers the promise of an alternative telecommunications service, often available through Voice over Internet Protocol (VoIP) or Internet Protocol (IP) and/or wireless services, these services primarily rely on technologies that are not yet deployed or are not yet reliable in our communities, particularly in mountainous and rugged terrain. As Lake County recovers from the 3rd most damaging fire in the history of California and looks towards preventing future catastrophic events, it is imperative that a strong, reliable telecommunication infrastructure is in place for life safety. AB 2395 contains various other provisions of serious concern, including unknown economic and public safety impacts that may leave our rural and remote communities without any reliable communications services. Lake County is concerned that the bill does not ensure alternatives that are affordable, provide good quality-of-service, and remain viable over the long-term. 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 your Board approve the letter of opposition to AB 2395, and authorize the Chair to sign.

Date: April 13, 2016 · To: Honorable Board of Supervisors · From: Public Services Department · Subject: Eastlake Landfill - Compactor

EXECUTIVE SUMMARY: The Integrated Waste Management Division budgeted for a new Caterpillar 826K Compactor during the 2015/2016 mid-year budget. A new compactor will aid in extending the life of the landfill by compacting waste more efficiently. The average life span of a compactor is 15,000 hours. The current compactor, which was purchased in 2002, has 24,000 hours on it and is starting to require more frequent maintenance, repairs, and upgrades to stay in compliance with regulations. The Solid Waste Division solicited four bids, from authorized Caterpillar dealers for this region. Caterpillar is the only manufacturer who builds equipment specific to landfill use which meets our specifications and needs. In anticipation of this purchase staff received your Board's approval on February 16, 2016 to seek bids for the purchase the Caterpillar 826K Compactor. Staff has also evaluated and agreed to the need for an optional 3 year/5000 hour powertrain and hydraulic warranty for an additional $8,500.00 to protect the County's investment.

Staff memo

Date: April 9, 2016 · To: Rob Brown, Chairman, Board of Supervisors · From: Brian L. Martin, Sheriff/Coroner · Subject: Approval to issue a purchase order in the amount of $24,652 to ProForce Law Enforcement for the purchase of 24 Taser X26P taser units.

EXECUTIVE SUMMARY: The Lake County Sheriff's Department requests your Boards' approval for the purchase of 24 X-26P taser units. The X-26P Taser unit is an advanced non-lethal device. It uses a technology to safely incapacitate dangerous, combative or high risk subjects who pose a risk to law enforcement officers, citizens or themselves. Tasers are designed to affect the central nervous system. The X-26 fires two probes up to a distance of 25 feet. These probes are connected to the weapon by high voltage insulated wire. An electrical signal is transmitted through the wires to where the probes make contact with the body or clothing, resulting in an immediate loss of neuromuscular control and the ability to perform coordinated action for the duration of the impulse. Each time the X-26 is fired, it stores the time, date and duration of each discharge along with the temperature at the time of use for the last 2,000 firings. This data protects officers from claims of excessive use of force by providing complete and accurate data. When a taser is fired, it disperses AFID's (anti-felon identifications) which are unique coded tags. These tags are serial numbered and can be traced to the taser device from which it was fired. The Sheriff's Department requests to purchase 24 X-26P taser units at a cost of $931.45 per unit. Because these are replacement units due to the age of existing units, the vendor is allowing a credit of $2,640 which will be used to purchase accessory items. This is a sole source purchase. A copy of the quote is attached. We recommend your Board waive the formal bidding process, per Ordinance #2406, Purchasing Code 38.2, making a determination that competitive bidding would produce no economic benefit to the County and authorize the Sheriff/Coroner/Assistant Purchasing Agent to issue a purchase order for procurement through ProForce Law Enforcement. FISCAL IMPACT: __ None _x_Budgeted __Non-Budgeted Amount Budgeted: 25,000 Additional Requested: N/A Annual Cost (if planned for future years): FISCAL IMPACT (Narrative): Monies are budgeted in the Sheriff/Jail budget unit 2301/62.74. STAFFING IMPACT (if applicable): N/A ..Recommended Action RECOMMENDED ACTION: Consideration of (a) Waiving the formal bidding process, per Ordinance #2406, Purchasing Code 38.2, making a determination that competitive bidding would produce no economic benefit to the County; and (b) Authorize the Sheriff/Coroner/Assistant Purchasing Agent to issue a purchase order for procurement through ProForce Law Enforcement in the amount of $24,652.

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: April 11, 2016 · To: Rob Brown, Chairman, Board of Supervisors · From: Brian L. Martin, Sheriff/Coroner · Subject: Approval to issue a purchase order to TNVC, Inc for the purchase of a FLIR Magnum Universal Night Sight to be purchased from the Sheriff/Asset Forfeiture budget 2214 and to waive the formal bidding process.

EXECUTIVE SUMMARY: The Sheriff's Department requests approval to purchase a FLIR Magnum Universal Night Sight for use by the Sniper team. In reviewing the equipment needs for the SWAT snipers, it was determined that this essential piece of equipment will allow the team the ability to be operational 24 hours a day. Neither of the two sniper rifles are presently equipped with any form of night vision. With the knowledge that almost all operations begin or extend into the hours of darkness, it is clear this is a missing key element. The ability for your sniper team to provide detailed information about a suspect's position, description, and threat level is highly compromised without the availability of weapon mounted night vision. There are many types and styles of night vision devices available to law enforcement. The team has considered and experimented with several of the most popular styles. The differences between these styles are centered on consistency. The key to the snipers usefulness as marksman is that they have a unique ability to provide precision fire if needed. There is only one style of weapon mounted night vision that does not affect the shooters position, eye relief, and the weapon's zero. That is a night vision scope mounted forward of the primary sighting system. Both sniper rifles in use are ready to accept the addition of a forward mounted night vision scope without modification. The addition of this piece of equipment will allow a sniper to continue to give detailed observations and provide cover to an entry team regardless of the level of light. Three written bids were obtained and are as follows: TNVC, Inc. $12,391.12 Optics Planet $12,679.20 Techeyes $13,305.60 We recommend your Board waive the formal bidding process, per Ordinance #2406, Purchasing Code 38.2, making a determination that competitive bidding would produce no economic benefit to the County and authorize the Sheriff/Coroner/Assistant Purchasing Agent to issue a purchase order for procurement through TNVC, Inc. FISCAL IMPACT: __ None _x_Budgeted __Non-Budgeted Amount Budgeted: 18,500 Additional Requested: N/A Annual Cost (if planned for future years): FISCAL IMPACT (Narrative): Monies are allocated in the Sheriff/Asset Forfeiture budget 2214, object code 62.74. There is no cost to the County. STAFFING IMPACT (if applicable): N/A ..Recommended Action RECOMMENDED ACTION: Consideration of (a) Waiving the formal bidding process, per Ordinance #2406, Purchasing Code 38.2, making a determination that competitive bidding would produce no economic benefit to the County; and (b) Authorize the Sheriff/Coroner/Assistant Purchasing Agent to issue a purchase order through procurement through TNVC, Inc. in the amount of $12,392.
