3.08 Amendment of Ordinance 44A-3 Designation of Juvenile Camp Beds within Butte County
Juvenile Hall-On June 10,2014, pursuant to Welfare and Institutions Code Section 881,the Butte
County Board of Supervisors adopted Butte County Ordinance 44A establishing a camp program
within the Butte County Juvenile Hall. Specifically, the Butte County Board of Supervisors
authorized under Ordinance 44A-3 a designation of 20 beds within the Butte County Juvenile Hall
as a camp program. On March 14, 2017, Butte County Probation submitted an amended
Ordinance 44A-3, specifically addressing the designation of beds within the Juvenile Probation
camp program. Modifications with programming, and in an effort to better utilize the Butte
County Juvenile Hall capacity, necessitate a re-designation of the original 20 camp beds to 15
beds.The remaining 5 beds would revert to detention beds which would better meet the ongoing
operational needs of the Juvenile Hall. The requested amendment will not affect funding from
the Juvenile Probation Camp Fund as funding is contingent on actual beds occupied, not merely
beds designated—action requested—ADOPT ORDINANCE AND AUTHORIZE THE CHAIR TO SIGN.
(Probation)
3.09 Resolution Authorizing Submittal of an Application for a CalRecycle Household Hazardous Waste
Grant-The Department of Public Works is requesting authorization to submit an application on
behalf of the County and the City of Oroville for a CalRecycle Household Hazardous Waste Grant
(HD29). The HD29 Grant allows for regional grant applications. The City of Oroville will request
approval of a resolution by Oroville City Council on March 21, 2017, to authorize the County to
act as the Lead Agency for administering the grant. If the grant is awarded to the County and
the City of Oroville, funds will be used to promote public education and enhance public
awareness for the County and the City of Oroville's Household Hazardous Waste (HHW)
programs and facilities. The Department of Public Works seeks authorization for the Director of
Public Works, or designee, to execute all necessary applications, payment requests, purchases,
agreements and amendments for the purposes of securing grant funds, and to implement an
approved grant project. Studies conducted by State agencies have shown that HHW facilities are
underutilized. The HD29 Grant provides up to$75,000 for regional projects intended to increase
public education and outreach directed at keeping household hazardous waste materials out of
the landfill. An awareness campaign will promote proper disposal of those products — action
requested—ADOPT RESOLUTION AND AUTHORIZE THE CHAIR TO SIGN. (Public Works)
3.10 Resolution Authorizing Negotiation of Right of Way and Easements for the East Gridley
Road/Larkin Road Intersection Signal Project - The Department of Public Works is requesting
authorization to begin negotiations for right of way, public utility easements, and temporary
construction easements forthe East Gridley Road/Larkin Road Intersection Signal Project,County
Project No. 2013-04, Funding Project No. HSIP5-03-002. The project is funded in part using the
federal Highway Safety Improvement Program (HSIP) administered through Caltrans. The
intersection currently operates as a two-way stop intersection, with traffic on the legs of Larkin
Road required to stop. This new project will provide a fully integrated traffic signal system, left
turn lanes for all four legs of the intersection, signalized pedestrian crossings,and street lighting.
The proposed project will shift the intersection 18 feet north of the current roadway alignment,
to accommodate an existing high voltage power transmission linejust outside the southerly right
Page 3
BUTTE COUNTY BOARD OF SUPERVISORS AGENDA-MARCH 28,2017
of way of East Gridley Highway. The transmission line is in an easement acquired by PG&E and
relocating the line would be cost prohibitive and time consuming for the County. Much of the
proposed work will take place in the existing right of way with a majority of the newly acquired
right of way necessary for the shift of the physical road.The temporary construction easements
are necessary for driveway conforms, grading conforms, and utility relocations as applicable —
action requested—ADOPT RESOLUTION AND AUTHORIZE THE CHAIR TO SIGN. (Public Works)
3.11 Contract with Sun Ridge Systems for CAD/RMS System Software - The Butte County Sheriff's
Office has utilized the same software system for Computer Aided Dispatch (CAD) and Report
Management (RMS) for nearly twenty years. CAD is used primarily in the emergency dispatch
center and RMS is used for report writing and data management. Last August, a Request for
Proposal was published and after extensive vetting, Sun Ridge Systems was selected to provide
CAD/RMS software services going forward. The new CAD/RMS system will allow for more
efficient data management and better information sharing with neighboring law enforcement
agencies. Implementation of the new software system, data conversion, and employee training
is necessary before the system may be utilized. The Sheriff's Office anticipates system cut-over
sometime in late October. Until that time,the Sheriff's Office will continue to utilize the existing
CAD/RMS system. The new system cost is $919,424, which includes software maintenance in
year one. Ongoing maintenance cost is $85,485 annually for a total six-year contract cost of
$1,346,849. Additionally, the Sheriff's Office will be purchasing three computer servers to
maintain the data, with redundant back-up for security reasons. The Sheriff will utilize Federal
Asset Forfeiture funds and Rural County Sheriff funds for the cost of the project. Sun Ridge will
be paid in four installments based on contractual milestones.The Sheriff's Office anticipates the
first two milestones will be met this fiscal year—action requested—1)APPROVE CONTRACT AND
AUTHORIZE THE CHAIR TO SIGN; AND 2) APPROVE BUDGET ADJUSTMENT AND AUTHORIZE
CAPITAL ASSET ACQUISITION (4/5 VOTE REQUIRED). (Sheriff-Coroner)
3.12 Resolution Regarding Grant from State Of California, Department of Parks and Recreation,
Division of Boating and Waterways -The Butte County Sheriff's Office is requesting ratification
of an agreement with the State of California, Department of Parks and Recreation, Division of
Boating and Waterways for FY 2017-18 that will continue the existing program. The program
provides funding for the Sheriff's Office to provide year-round patrol of the Feather River, Lake

education to the public on State and local laws and regulations; inspection of vessels for
compliance with required safety equipment and registration requirements; and provides
supervision of organized on-the-water boating activities that allow for the protection and safety
of the boating public. The year-round program funds one full-time uniformed Deputy Sheriff, a
leased vehicle, marine equipment, and supporting program services. The agreement in the
amount of$159,342 requires the County to utilize the annual boat tax revenue of$94,205,with
which the Sheriff's Office provides a full-time Sheriff's Sergeant to oversee the water
enforcement program.Appropriations and anticipated revenue were included in the Sheriff's FY
2017-18 budget — action requested — 1) ADOPT RESOLUTION IN SUPPORT OF THE BOATING

3.13 Public Auction Sale of Tax-Defaulted Properties - In accordance with Chapter 7 of Part 6 of
Division 1 of the California Revenue and Taxation Code section 3698,the Treasurer-Tax Collector
requests approval to sell at public auction via the Internet for the stated minimum price,the tax-
defaulted properties which are subject to the power of sale. If approved, the Treasurer-Tax

3.14 Resolution Regarding Property Tax Postponement for Senior or Disabled Citizens -Assembly Bill
2231 reinstated the Property Tax Postponement (PTP) Program on September 28, 2014 and
authorized the California State Controller's Office (SCO) to begin accepting applications for the
program in October 2016. The PTP Program provides a beneficial service to low income, elderly,
and disabled citizens who might otherwise be faced with losing their primary home if they are
unable to pay property taxes. Prior to enactment of AB2231, the PTP Program operated by the
SCO had been suspended as of 2009. Many properties formerly eligible for PTP now have as
many as five years of defaulted taxes;yet the current PTP Program only provides for payment of
the current year's taxes.The PTP Program established under AB2231 provides for postponement
of property taxes owed on owner-occupied properties for low income, senior, or disabled
citizens. In addition to the properties having defaulted taxes due to the suspension of the earlier
PTP Program, the processing time between application submittal and the SCO's determination
of eligibility and subsequent payment to the tax collector may result in delinquent penalties and
interest assessed against the eligible properties. AB2231 provided authorization for the Board of
Supervisors to adopt procedures and conditions for the delay of sale of tax-defaulted properties
and the cancellation of delinquent penalties, costs, fees, and interest on such properties, if the
properties would have been eligible for PTP prior to January 1, 2017. The Treasurer-Tax Collector
has established such procedures and conditions, and recommends adoption of a resolution to
delay sale and cancel penalties, costs, fees, and interest on such properties, if the properties
would have been eligible for PTP prior to January 1, 2017 — action requested — ADOPT
RESOLUTION AND AUTHORIZE THE CHAIR TO SIGN. (Treasurer-Tax Collector)

Environmental Services Joint Powers Authority - Supervisor Teeter is the County's delegate
for RCRC. For the RCRC's Environmental Services Joint Powers Authority(ESJPA), Supervisor
Teeter is also the delegate and Bill Mannel, Deputy Director, Department of Public Works, is
the alternate. The ESJPA's purpose is to discuss solid waste issues impacting rural counties
and provide recommendations to the general RCRC board. While the delegate and alternate
were appointed at the December 6, 2016 Board of Supervisors meeting, a second alternate
was not appointed at that time. ESJPA management is requesting each member county
appoint a second alternate in the event that the delegate or the alternate cannot attend. In
that event, without a second alternate designated, it is possible that ESJPA would not have
enough voting members for a quorum. The Department of Public Works recommends Eric

4.03 Items Removed from the Consent Agenda for Board Consideration and Action
4.04 Resolution Approving Exit from Title IV-E Child Welfare Waiver Demonstration Project Effective
July 1, 2017 - The Department of Employment and Social Services (DESS) and the Probation
Department jointly request that the Board of Supervisors approve Butte County's exit from the
Title IV-E Child Welfare Waiver Demonstration Project (Project) effective July 1, 2017. DESS and
the Probation Department executed an agreement with the California Department of Social
Services to participate in the Project commencing October 1, 2014 through September 30, 2019.
DESS projects that continued participation in the Project will require unanticipated County
funding. The Project was designed to be cost neutral while allowing cost savings to be reinvested
in innovative programs that would mitigate children entering foster care. However, under the
Project's capped federal funding, substantial additional local funds beyond the required match
had to be used in order to operate the project. During FY 2015-16, the Project-related
expenditures exceeded the Project match by approximately $1.4 million due to unanticipated
increases in foster care assistance and administrative costs—action requested—1)APPROVE THE
EXIT FROM THE TITLE IV-E CHILD WELFARE WAIVER DEMONSTRATION PROJECT EFFECTIVE JULY
1, 2017; AND 2) ADOPT RESOLUTION AND AUTHORIZE THE CHAIR TO SIGN. (Employment and

the Board of Supervisors approve a budget adjustment for three projects to complete urgent

appropriations or that surfaced after the current year budget was adopted. The combined total
of$285,000 in additional funding includes $175,000 for 900 Esplanade in Chico, $35,000 for the
Oroville Veterans Memorial Park for all of Butte County, and $75,000 for the Southside Oroville
Community Center. Of the $285,000, $95,000 is necessary to complete projects that were
budgeted, but lack sufficient appropriations to complete, and $190,000 is required for projects
that developed subsequent to the approval of the current fiscal year budget. Approval of the
budget adjustment from General Fund Appropriation for Contingencies will allow these projects
to be completed. Additional information on each facility and project is included in the staff
report—action requested—1)APPROVE$285,000 BUDGET ADJUSTMENT FROM GENERAL FUND
APPROPRIATION FOR CONTINGENCIES;AND 2)APPROVE INCREASE IN THE OROVILLE VETERANS'
MEMORIAL PARK CAPITAL PROJECT (4/5 VOTE REQUIRED). (General Services)

4.06 Resolution Authorizing Chico Unified School District to Sell Bonds Directly - On November 8,
2016,voters in the Chico Unified School District(District)approved the issuance of$152,000,000
in bonds for various purposes set forth in the ballot to the voters pertaining to educational
facilities within the District. The Board of Supervisors (Board) has received a certified, adopted
copy of a resolution (District Resolution) of the Board of Trustees of the Chico Unified School
District (District Board), authorizing the issuance of two series of current interest bonds "Chico
Unified School District General Obligation Bonds, Election of 2016, Series A-1 and A-2" (Bonds)
under the authorization in an aggregate principal amount not-to-exceed $45,000,000. The
District Board is requesting that the Board adopt a resolution allowing the District to issue
General Obligation Bonds directly, without the involvement of the Board as a conduit issuer,
under Government Code section 15140(b). Pursuant to the District Resolution, the District is
formally requesting the Auditor-Controller of the County(Auditor-Controller)to levy ad valorem
taxes in an amount sufficient to pay the principal of and interest on the Bonds when due, and to
place on its 2017-18 tax roll, and all subsequent tax rolls, taxes sufficient to fulfill the
requirements of the debt service schedule for the Bonds that will be provided to the Auditor-
Controller and Treasurer-Tax Collector of the County(Treasurer) by the District following the sale
of the Bonds. The District Board additionally requests that the Treasurer be authorized and
directed to execute documents necessary to the transactions outlined in the resolution—action
requested—ADOPT RESOLUTION AND AUTHORIZE THE CHAIR TO SIGN. (Treasurer-Tax Collector)
4.07 Memorandum of Understanding (MOU) for the Wyandotte Creek Subbasin Groundwater
Sustainability Agency-The Sustainable Groundwater Management Act (SGMA)went into effect
on January 1, 2015. High and medium subbasins are subject to SGMA compliance. In Butte
County,there are four subbasins subject to SGMA(Vina, West Butte, East Butte,and Wyandotte
Creek). By June 30, 2017, subbasins subject to SGMA must have one or more Groundwater
Sustainability Agency or Agencies (GSAs) established for all portions of the subbasin. The State
Water Resources Control Board will intervene in groundwater basins unless a local public agency
or combination of local public agencies form a GSA by June 30, 2017. Butte County, the City of
Oroville, and the South Feather Water and Power Agency have elected to become GSAs in the
Wyandotte Creek subbasin. In 2016, SGMA was amended to require that if the proposed GSA
management areas of two or more entities overlap, then none of the entities would be
recognized as GSAs until the overlap was resolved or eliminated. In the Wyandotte Creek
subbasin,the GSAs must take action to resolve the overlaps prior to June 30, 2017, or face State
Water Resources Control Board intervention. South Feather Water and Power elects to resolve
its overlap by withdrawing their application to be a GSA. Butte County can resolve its overlap by
modifying its GSA boundary to only include the areas outside of the Oroville city limits. Both of
these actions would not be a material change from original GSA filings and would not require a
new Notice of Intent. The City of Oroville and South Feather Water and Power Agency support
entering into an MOU with Butte County to support obtaining a grant to prepare the
groundwater sustainability plan, to cooperatively share data, and to participate in the
development of the groundwater sustainability plan for the Wyandotte Creek subbasin—action
requested—1)ADOPT RESOLUTION AND AUTHORIZE THE CHAIR TO SIGN;AND 2)APPROVE MOU
AND AUTHORIZE THE CHAIR TO SIGN. (Water and Resource Conservation)

(NCSP) designation from Light Industrial (M-1) to General Commercial (C-2). The applicant had
also requested a Specific Plan Amendment to allow service stations as a permitted use in the C-
2 NCSP designation. The project was reviewed by the Planning Commission at a public hearing
on February 23, 2017. The Planning Commission, on a 3-1 vote, recommended approval of
changing the General Plan land use designation from Industrial to Retail and Office, the Rezone
from LI (Light Industrial)to G-C(General Commercial),and the NCSP designation from M-1 (Light
Industrial) to C-2 (General Commercial), but recommended denial of changing services stations
