HEALTH Amendment A to contract X19522 was approved with LocumTenens.com, LLC, a firm

Amendment A and approve Amendment A which is included in the staff report. This
amendment provides additional service hours from what was included in the original

services as required in meeting the diverse needs of the department. This amendment,

Chico was constructed in 1927. The County lacks sufficient funds to renovate the facility
and it has been sitting vacant since being decommissioned in 2005 due to lack of
maintenance. Although the building is vacant, the County's responsibility to maintain the
original exterior style of the building requires both major and routine maintenance on a
yearly basis. The County has been looking to partner with others able to help the County
identify and implement plans that can begin to utilize the facility. After meeting with the
City of Chico, the Chico Area Recreation District, the local Veterans' groups, schools in the
area and the community, staff recommends that the County adopt a resolution, pursuant
to California Government Code authorizing the process for executing a lease for a portion
of 900 Esplanade to the Museum of Northern California Art (monca) creating a partnership
to begin renovation of the building. The terms of the 20 year lease agreement provide for

BUTTE COUNTY BOARD OF SUPERVISORS AGENDA-FEBRUARY 26,2013
4.06* Introduction of an Ordinance Amending Butte County Code Chapters 2 (Administration), 13
(Grading), and 20 (Subdivisions) to enable a Zoning Administrator Process and to Allow
Exceptions to Cul-de-sac Length Standards in BCC Section 20-133 - At its April 26, 2010
workshop, the Board of Supervisors directed staff to utilize a Zoning Administrator (ZA)
function in the Draft Zoning Ordinance (BCC Chapter 24) as the review and approval
authority for Minor Use Permits, Minor Variances, and other administrative permitting
processes, and to pursue changes to Chapter 20, Subdivisions to utilize the Zoning
Administrator function for parcel maps and minor applications. Code Amendment CA12-
0001 would enable the Zoning Administrator process to be utilized for relatively routine
and non-controversial applications regulated in BCC Chapters 13 (Grading), and 20
(Subdivisions). Proposed modifications would allow a decision-making process by a Zoning
Administrator for parcels maps creating four parcels or less (not including the remainder
parcel); 'minor' non-controversial grading permits; extensions of time for subdivision
maps and parcel maps; lot line adjustments; certificates of compliance (aka legal lot
determinations); and mergers. Modification to BCC section 20-133 would enable
exceptions to cul-de-sac length standards with approval of Butte County Fire
Department/Cal Fire and other requirements. In its review of the ordinance, the Planning
Commission made three recommendations: modify the criteria in the proposed ordinance
at BCC 20-133 relative to exceptions to cul-de-sac standards, create a website to centralize
noticing, and report Zoning Administrator decisions to the Planning Commission — action
requested - PROVIDE STAFF DIRECTION AND WAIVE THE FIRST READING OF THE
ORDINANCE. (Development Services)
4.07* Matter on Which a Public Hearing Has Been Held and a Motion of Intent Adopted -Appeal
of the Planning Commission's Approval of Use Permit UP10-0003 for Helena Chemical
Company to Develop a Regional Storage and Distribution Facility for Fertilizers, Pesticides,

noticed public hearing to consider an appeal of the Planning Commission's November 8,
2012 decision to certify an Environmental Impact Report (EIR) and approve the Helena
Chemical Nelson Terminal (Use Permit UP10-0003), located north of Nelson Road and east
of the Union Pacific Railroad, adjacent to the community of Nelson. At the conclusion of
the public hearing, the Board adopted a motion of intent to certify the Final EIR with
environmental findings; and to deny the appeal and approve Use Permit UP10-0003 for the
Helena Chemical Company by making findings regarding significant and unavoidable
impacts, adopting a mitigation monitoring and reporting program, and providing direction
to staff. Since the January 29, 2013 meeting, County staff has worked with the applicant
and their engineer in response to the direction provided. With the additional conditions of
approval and modifications to existing conditions as directed by the Board of Supervisors,
staff recommends approval of the resolutions included in the staff report — action
requested—
1. ADOPT A RESOLUTION CERTIFYING THE FINAL EIR AND MAKING ENVIRONMENTAL
FINDINGS (INCLUDES EXHIBIT A, SUMMARY OF PROJECT ENVIRONMENTAL
IMPACTS); AND
2. ADOPT A RESOLUTION: a) MAKING FINDINGS REGARDING SIGNIFICANT AND
UNAVOIDABLE IMPACTS; b) ADOPTING A MITIGATION MONITORING AND
REPORTING PROGRAM; AND c) DENYING THE APPEAL AND APPROVING USE
PERMIT UP10-0003 FOR THE HELENA CHEMICAL NELSON TERMINAL PROJECT

5.00 PUBLIC HEARINGS AND TIMED ITEMS
9:30 A.M. 5.01* Tentative Parcel Map (TPM) 02-23 - Larry Bradley - An application for TPM 02-23 (Larry
Bradley) to divide a 34.3 acre parcel into three 10+ acre parcels was denied by the
Development Review Committee on September 12, 2002. The applicant appealed the
denial. The appeal was originally presented to the Board of Supervisors at a publicly
noticed appeal hearing on October 8, 2002. The appeal was continued several times
(December 10, 2002, January 14, 2003, January 28, 2003, February 11, 2003 and August
17, 2004). At the August 17, 2004 hearing, the Board of Supervisors continued the appeal
"open to an unspecified date to allow work on the General Plan update to be completed"
before the item is considered. The General Plan update at that time did not proceed and
the project has been on hold. The County did proceed with a General Plan update in 2006
and completed it in 2010. This update did not resolve the issues that led to the denial, so
Mr. Bradley has worked with the Agricultural Commissioner's Office to identify homesite
locations that would be compatible with surrounding and onsite agricultural uses.
Homesite locations were identified and Mr. Bradley has asked that the project be brought
back for a determination. The appeal was presented to the Board on January 29, 2012,
continued open to February 12, 2013 and then to February 26, 2013 in order for staff to
determine the project is consistent with the General Plan and Zoning when it was deemed
complete (March 2002) - action requested - 1) GRANT THE APPEAL AND ADOPT THE
RESOLUTION; AND 2) ADOPT A MITIGATED NEGATIVE DECLARATION PURSUANT TO THE
CALIFORNIA ENVIRONMENTAL QUALITY ACT (CEQA); AND 3) APPROVE THE TENTATIVE
PARCEL MAP, SUBJECT TO THE FINDINGS AND CONDITIONS. (Development Services)

marijuana for medicinal purposes within the unincorporated area of the County. The
proposed ordinance was the result of a staff/elected officials/citizen committee created
for the purpose of developing an ordinance. Following the public hearing and discussion,
the Board directed staff to make amendments as included in the staff report and return
the ordinance for final consideration - action requested - 1) ADOPT ORDINANCE AND
AUTHORIZE THE CHAIR TO SIGN; 2) DIRECT THE ITEM BE RETURNED TO THE BOARD FOR
REVIEW IN A YEAR; and 3) DIRECT THAT MECHANISMS BE PUT IN PLACE THAT ALLOW
PUBLIC FEEDBACK ON THE ORDINANCE AND ITS APPLICATION AND ENFORCEMENT. (Chief
