CHIEF
ADMINISTRATIVE
OFFICE
3.04* Budget Adjustment - On September 9, 2008, the Board of Supervisors authorized the
execution, sale and delivery of a Certificate of Participation in the amount of
$1,100,000 to the United States Department of Agriculture Rural Development
(USDA-RD) for the replacement of the office/barracks at the Bangor Fire Station # 55.
The Notice of Completion was recorded in February 2011. Approximately $1,040,000
was needed from the loan proceeds to complete construction. The loan proceeds not
expended for construction, equal to approximately $60,000, are considered part of
the $1,100,000 loan obligation of the County. As such, the USDA-RD will disburse the
remaining proceeds to the County and the County will be required to immediately
make a principal payment to the USDA-RD of the same amount. A budget adjustment
is requested to reflect the return of unneeded loan proceeds – action requested –
APPROVE BUDGET ADJUSTMENT (4/5 vote required).
3.05* Butte County Economic Development Corporation - On August 23, 2011 the Board of
Supervisors approved a one year contract with the Butte County Economic
Development Corporation (Butte EDC) to provide a variety of economic development
related services. The Butte EDC requests the contract be amended to revise the time
line for the submittal of invoices to the County in order to streamline their
administration of the contract. The "Contractor Reports and Compensation" portion
of the scope of work currently requires the Butte EDC to submit monthly reports and
invoices. The Butte EDC requests this section of the contract be amended to allow for
invoices and reports to be submitted three times during the year: November 1, 2011,
March 1, 2012, and June 30, 2012 - action requested - APPROVE AGREEMENT
AMENDMENT AND AUTHORIZE THE CHAIR TO SIGN SUBJECT TO REVIEW BY COUNTY
COUNSEL AND THE AUDITOR-CONTROLLER.
3.06* Public Defender Contracts - The County is required by law to provide criminal defense
representation for indigent defendants and juveniles. The County provides this
service through a contract with a consortium of local attorneys. Two of the
consortium attorneys for felony cases, William Short and F.L. Willis, Jr. have given the
required notice to leave the consortium due to their retirements. The Indigent
Defense Consortium has nominated to move two existing misdemeanor attorneys,
Rochelle Forbis and Robert Marshall into the felony positions, and add four (4) half-
time attorneys to work the two misdemeanor positions. This will allow for greater
flexibility and prepares the consortium for anticipated future retirements. The
Superior Court Bench and the District Attorney support the recommendation – action
requested - APPROVE AGREEMENTS AND AGREEMENT AMENDMENTS AND
AUTHORIZE THE CHAIR TO SIGN SUBJECT TO REVIEW BY COUNTY COUNSEL AND THE
AUDITOR-CONTROLLER.
