Urban Area groundwater has been an ongoing concern for over 20 years. On September 25, 2001,
the Board of Supervisors adopted the "Nitrate Compliance Plan", which includes an Oversight and
Monitoring Program for properties within the Chico Urban Area that have not connected to public
sewer. The Oversight and Monitoring Program provides for the continued monitoring of Chico
groundwater to document the effectiveness of nitrate reduction efforts. County activities for Nitrate
Compliance Plan implementation are funded by County Service Area (CSA) 114. On January 24, 2012,
the Board of Supervisors approved a contract with URS Corporation for sampling and chemical
analysis of groundwater for approximately 35 water wells and monitoring wells, as well as periodic
reports of the monitoring events. The groundwater monitoring agreement was amended on
November 6, 2012, December 10, 2013, and June 16, 2014 in order to complete recommended
actions from Groundwater Monitoring Reports and the Regional Water Quality Control Board. Staff
recommends approval of amendment 4 in order to complete recommendations from the 2014
Groundwater Monitoring Report and properly abandon dry monitoring wells according to Butte
County Environmental Health specifications. The amendment provides for an additional $42,236 for
the expanded scope of work (funded by CSA 114) and extends the completion date to December 31,

for issuance of long term debt. Currently, the 2004 Pension Obligation Bonds and the 2006
Certificates of Participation are outstanding long term debt issues for which specific Disclosure
documents must be filed timely with the Municipal Securities Rulemaking Board (MSRB), via
Electronic Municipal Markets Access (EMMA). Additionally, the United States Department of
Agriculture (USDA), pursuant to the Bangor Fire Station #55 and Hall of Records Certificates of
Participation and the holders of long term capital lease arrangements, require annual reporting of
financial information directly to the lender. To ensure documentation of the County's compliance
with the Continuing Disclosure Requirements, the Board of Supervisors is provided with evidence of
timely filings on an annual basis. During the current fiscal year, all of the required annual disclosure
information was provided timely to EMMA, the USDA, leasing agencies, credit reporting agencies and
other interested parties. The documentation included in the staff report, which includes
confirmations of this year's filings with EMMA and a copy of the Miscellaneous Statistical
Information for Butte County, supports this certification that all Continuing Disclosure Requirements
have been met for the fiscal year ending June 30, 2014 action requested - ACCEPT FOR

3.08* Amendment to Agreement with the City of Chico Providing Funding for Extended Hours at the Chico
Branch Library - The City of Chico provides funds for fourteen (14) additional service hours per week
at the Chico Branch Library. The current agreement with the City of Chico provides $75,000 in
funding for the direct personnel costs incurred by the County to provide the additional hours of
service from July 1, 2014 to March 31, 2015. On March 3, 2015, the Chico City Council approved an
allocation of $25,000 to extend the agreement and fund the additional service hours through June
30, 2015 action requested - APPROVE AGREEMENT AMENDMENT AND AUTHORIZE THE CHAIR TO
SIGN. (County Administration/Library)
3.09* Salary Ordinance Amendment - Staff Allocation - The Development Services Department requests
approval of two new Building Inspector/Senior Inspector positions and one Permit
Assistant/Technician position to the department staffing allocation. Building permits and related
revenue are on an increasing trend. Building permit revenue is considered as an overall indicator of
permit trends and related workload. The department's fiscal year (FY) 2014-15 projection of $1.4
million for building permit revenue is up nearly 60% from the ten-year low in FY 2011-12 of
$882,000. The requested positions will allow the department to complete field inspections and plan
check in a time frame that meets the demands of customers. The Building Inspector positions
provide flexibility in assignment for inspections, plan check and the Permit Center. The Permit
Assistant/Technician will be assigned to the Permit Center to assist with building permit intake and
processing and direct customer service. The addition of these three positions are supported by
Administration. See staff report for additional information action requested - ADOPT RESOLUTION
AND AUTHORIZE THE CHAIR TO SIGN. (Development Services)
3.10* Award Bid, Transfer Funds and Give Approval to Purchase Capital Assets - The Fire Department has
gone out to bid for 3 new Water tenders that will serve the unincorporated areas of Butte County.
This is the first purchase from the Community Cost Share funds. Resolution 13-165 allows volunteers
to purchase much needed equipment with a 5% match with the other 95% coming from Community
Cost Share funds. The total cost for all three water tenders total $991,382.78 from the lowest bidder
Danko Emergency Equipment. The water tenders will be stationed in the following communities:
Kelly Ridge, Cherokee and Gridley - action requested - APPROVE THE PURCHASE OF CAPITAL ASSETS,
AWARD BID TO DANKO EMERGENCY EQUIPMENT AND APPROVE BUDGET ADJUSTMENT (4/5 vote
required). (Fire)
3.11* Revision to Resolution for Employer Paid Member Contributions (EPMC) - In order to be in
compliance with the various contracts, resolutions and agreements for Butte County employees, the
Board of Supervisors must approve the PERS resolution to adhere to CalPERS regulations. The
revisions to this resolution include the addition of the newly formed Skilled Trades Unit and
Confidential Unit and the Elected Department Heads Employer Paid Member Contribution (EPMC)
being changed to 0%. Due to an administrative oversight, this Resolution was not brought to the
Board of Supervisors when it was required and, therefore, shall be retroactively effective to January
3, 2015 action requested - ADOPT THE RESOLUTION AND AUTHORIZE THE CHAIR TO SIGN. (Human
Resources)
3.12* Resolution to Amend the Salary Ordinance - Behavioral Health: The Behavioral Health Department is
requesting to move one (1) position of Supervisor, Behavioral Health Clinician and one (1) position of
Behavioral Health Clinician III/II/I from Budget Unit 541-011 Mental Health Services Budget to 541-
012 Substance Use Services Budget. In addition the department requests to move one (1) position of
Supervisor, Behavioral Health Counselor from Budget Unit 541-012 to 541-011. These changes will
allow for the appropriate expenditures within each budget based on action service delivery. These
changes will leave the total allocations in the department unchanged and have no fiscal impact on
the County General Fund action requested - ADOPT THE RESOLUTION AND AUTHORIZE THE CHAIR
TO SIGN. (Human Resources)

3.13* Resolution Certifying Annual Changes to Butte County Maintained Mileage - Section 2121 of the
California Streets and Highways Codes and Chapter 18 of the Caltrans Local Assistance Procedures
Manual requires that counties submit a listing of changes that have occurred to their list of
maintained roads by May of each year. The County's submitted data is then forwarded by Caltrans to
the State Controller for the allocation of State Gas Tax Funds. Caltrans District 3 Office of Local
Assistance has requested that the Board of Supervisors approve a resolution prior to May 1, 2015 for
the new maintained mileage even if there have been no changes. The County maintained mileage for
the previous year (ending December 31, 2014) was determined to be 1,299.998 miles. The calculated
mileage to be submitted this year is 1,299.205 miles, which is a decrease of 0.793 miles. This
decrease is primarily due to annexations to the City of Chico and updates in GIS data. The changes to
the maintained mileage are shown in red in the staff report - action requested - ADOPT RESOLUTION
AND AUTHORIZE CHAIR TO SIGN. (Public Works)
3.14* Recognition of Volunteer Appreciation Month - The Sheriff requests the Board of Supervisors
recognize the tireless individuals who donate their time to operations - action
requested - ADOPT RESOLUTION AND AUTHORIZE CHAIR TO SIGN. (Sheriff)
3.15* Inmate Security Contract - In March of 2014, the Sheriff's Office contracted with California Security
Systems, doing business as Elite Universal Security (Elite), for inmate security outside the jail. On
occasion, an inmate is transported and admitted to the hospital and staff cannot stay with the
inmate long term. In these situations, the Sheriff's Office utilizes the services of Elite to monitor the
inmate while in the hospital. The Sheriff's Office has used Elite's services extensively and has
subsequently searched for other security providers and is currently working towards entering into
contractual relationships with them in order to expand the list of providers. At this juncture, we are
requesting to increase the maximum payable to Elite to $328,500 and extend the contract term
through March 27, 2017. This is a two year maximum payable increase of $223,501 lending more
flexibility to the Sheriff's Office when the need for immediate security services is required action
requested - APPROVE AMENDMENT AND AUTHORIZE THE CHAIR TO SIGN SUBJECT TO REVIEW BY
COUNTY COUNSEL AND AUDITOR-CONTROLLER. (Sheriff)
3.16* U.S. Department of Justice - Organized Crime Drug Enforcement Task Force - Amendment #1 - On
March 24, 2015, the Butte County Board of Supervisors accepted grant funding in the amount of
$5,000 from the US Department of Justice, Organized Crime Drug Enforcement Task Force
(DOJ/OCDETF). Agreement #PA-CAE-0392 is an overtime agreement between the DOJ and the Butte
County Sheriff's Office/Butte Interagency Narcotic Task Force. The funds are specifically used for
overtime and are limited to cases that have been designated as OCDETF investigation cases. A
request was made and approved for an additional $5,000 award for overtime. No other terms or
conditions were modified, the funding terms remain unchanged, October 1, 2014 through
September 30, 2015 action requested - APPROVE BUDGET ADJUSTMENT (4/5 vote required).
(Sheriff)
3.17* Purchase of Capital Asset - The Butte County Sheriff's Office Special Enforcement Unit (SEU) is tasked
with the enforcement of illegal marijuana grows. The Sheriff's Office is a participant in the Federal
Equitable Sharing Program which allows agencies to receive forfeited funds and/or equipment found
and utilized in illegal cultivation sites, for use in official operations, only after the U.S. Marshals
Service receives their 20% share of the seizure. The SEU often patrols areas of Butte County that are
only accessible with special All-Terrain Vehicles (ATV). SEU is requesting to utilize an ATV that was
seized and forfeited. The Sheriff's Office is obligated to pay the U.S. Marshals Service $1,014 to
finalize the transfer of the ATV to the Sheriff's Office. The vehicle is described as: 2011 Kawasaki ATV
KVF 750D, VIN# JKAVFDD16BB522583 with an estimated value of $5,070 action requested -
