3.47 * County Service Areas (CSAS) - Failed Ballot Proceedings - on
April 9, 2002, ballot proceedings were held to allow for
increased or new service charges within six CSAS. Three of
the CSAS: CSA 68-Crestwood Street Lighting, CSA 75-North Park
Street Lighting-Unit 1, and CSA 103-Morris Subdivision Street
Lighting, approved the increased or new service charges.
Three of the CSAS: CSA 60-Lassenwood Subdivision Street
Lighting, CSA 62-Rancho De Thunder #1 Street Lighting, and CSA
66-Peach Tree Place Street Lighting, failed to approve the
increased or new service charges. As a result of the failed
ballot proceedings, it is necessary to decrease services
within the CSAS that did not establish increased or new
service charges. Property owners in CSAS 60 and 62 will be
notified that two street lights in each CSA will be turned off
effective June 30, 2002, and property owners in CSA 66 will be
notified that one street light in their CSA will be turned off
effective June 30, 2002 - action requested - ACCEPT INCREASED

A RESULT OF THE FAILED BALLOT MEASURES FOR THOSE CSAS.

Services Ordinance, the County Health Officer submits a report

providers within Butte County - action requested - ACCEPT FOR
INFORMATION.
3.49 * Recommendation to Expand Proposition 12 Subcommittee to
Include Proposition 40 - on May 8, 2001, the Board appointed
Supervisors Beeler and Josiassen to the Proposition 12
Subcommittee. On March 5, 2002, the voters approved the
Proposition 40 Bond Act. As both propositions relate to
recreation grant funds, staff is recommending the
Proposition 12 Subcommittee be expanded to include
Proposition 40. As a result of the notification by the State
that the County's grant application for Butte County's Urban
Recreational and Cultural Centers will not be recommended for
funding, Board approval is requested to solicit proposals from
local cities, park and recreation districts, and community
groups for potential uses of the County's Roberti-Z'Berg-
Harris Block Grant funds and to work with the Proposition 12
Subcommittee to develop recommendations for Board
consideration - action requested - DIRECT STAFF TO SOLICIT
PROPOSALS FROM LOCAL CITIES, PARK AND RECREATION DISTRICTS AND
COMMUNITY GROUPS FOR POTENTIAL USES OF THE COUNTY'S $328,770
ROBERTI-Z'BERG-HARRIS BLOCK GRANT FUNDS AND TO WORK WITH THE
PROPOSITION 12 SUBCOMMITTEE TO DEVELOP RECOMMENDATIONS FOR
BOARD CONSIDERATION; AND EXPAND THE SCOPE OF THE CURRENT
PROPOSITION 12 SUBCOMMITTEE TO CONSIDER THE POTENTIAL REVENUE
SOURCES AVAILABLE TO THE COUNTY THROUGH PROPOSITION 40 AND TO
CONSIDER OPTIONS FOR THE USE OF THOSE FUNDS AND TO REPORT BACK

4.05 * George Suhrie Use Permit Appeal - Discussion Regarding Outcome
of Hearing - on April 23, 2002, the Board considered an appeal
of a Use Permit application by George Suhrie (UP 02-04). Only
four Board members were present, and there was a tie vote on
a motion to grant the use permit . The Board was informed that
a tie vote was no action under Government Code Section 25005,
which requires three votes for an act to be valid or binding.
The Board was also informed that in the absence of Board
action, the decision of the Planning Commission would stand.
The question arose as to whether the Board could rehear the
matter. There are no Board policies or rules that specify
what is to be done in the event of tie votes, either when
members are absent or when members abstain. In a situation
where both the County Code and Board policies and rules are
silent on the matter, the Board has the inherent authority to
bring the issue back to the Board to discuss what it wishes to
do - action requested - STAFF RECOMMENDS THE BOARD TAKE ONE OF
THE FOLLOWING ACTIONS:
1. DETERMINE THAT THE PLANNING COMMISSION DECISION STANDS;
OR
2. DETERMINE THAT THE MATTER SHOULD BE RECONSIDERED BY THE
BOARD; SET A HEARING DATE AND TIME FOR RECONSIDERATION
OF THE MATTER; AND DIRECT THE PUBLIC HEARING TO BE RE-
NOTICED. (COUNTY COUNSEL)
4.06 * Proposed Technical General Plan Update - Report to the Board -
report to the Board on steps necessary to update the County's
General Plan - action requested - ACCEPT FOR INFORMATION.
(COUNTY COUNSEL AND DEVELOPMENT SERVICES)
4.07 * County Improvement Standards - Report to the Board - report on
the current Butte County Improvement Standards which provide
minimum standards to be applied to public improvements and
private works to be dedicated to the pubic and accepted by the
County for maintenance or operation, as well as improvements
to be installed within existing rights-of-way and easements -
action requested - ACCEPT FOR INFORMATION; DIRECT STAFF TO
BRING THE IMPROVEMENT STANDARDS, AND ANY RECOMMENDED CHANGES,
BACK FOR A PUBLIC HEARING AND POSSIBLE ADOPTION ON
JUNE 11, 2002. (PUBLIC WORKS)
