3.85* Letter to US Forest Service Regional Forester Regarding Travel Management Subpart A -
Many National Forests, including the Plumas National Forest, is initiating Subpart A of the
2005 Travel Management Rule. Subpart A is a process to identify existing "national forest
system roads that are adequate for safe and efficient access for recreation and resource
management, while protecting natural and cultural resources." Subpart A also identifies
existing national forest system roads that should be closed. The U.S. Forest Service claims
that the Subpart A is not a decision document and does not trigger environmental review
pursuant to the National Environmental Policy Act (NEPA). Many counties have concerns
with the U.S. National Forest's proposed process for Subpart A and its decision to not
include the requirements of NEPA. Butte County has been intimately involved with the
Plumas National Forest's efforts to comply with the 2005 Travel Management Rule and
has concerns with its process to comply with Subpart A. Butte County staff believes that
the Plumas National Forest's process to comply with Subpart A needs to include
compliance with NEPA and recommends that the Board send a letter to the Region 5
Forester urging him to reconsider his decision - action requested -APPROVE LETTER AND
AUTHORIZE THE CHAIR TO SIGN.
3.86* Resolution Prohibiting Stopping, Standing or Parking on Both Sides of West Rio Bonito

future, the City of Biggs has requested, and Public Works recommends, that parking be
restricted along a portion of West Rio Bonito Road between Second Street and Milky Way
during this and future 4th of July events. Public Works is requesting the Board of
Supervisors to grant the Director of Public Works the authority to work with the City of
Biggs and event organizers to establish reasonable limits on the hours of restricted
parking during this event and to allow the City or event organizers to post said limits.
Section 14-46.5 of the Butte County Code allows the Board to restrict parking on County
owned or leased property by resolution. A resolution allowing the restriction of parking
and granting authority to the Director of Public Works is included in the staff report -

California Emergency Management Agency (CaIEMA) for Marijuana Suppression in Fiscal
Year 2012 in the amount of $230,326 with an original ending date of June 2012. Due to

TREASURER 3.90* Delinquent Unsecured Taxes - Discharge from Accountability - The Treasurer-Tax
TAX COLLECTOR Collector's Department requests approval to discharge from the property tax roll
delinquent unsecured accounts that are ten years or older and considered uncollectable.
Under the provisions of Revenue and Taxation Code Section 2923, the Tax Collector may
request from the Board of Supervisors "a discharge from accountability for the collection
of taxes, penalties, and interest, and any other charge pertaining thereto, if the amount is
so small as to not justify the cost of collection or if collection enforcement is impractical."
The discharge process allows the Auditor's Office to inactivate the accounts and remove
the total due from the delinquent unsecured tax roll. However, this action does not
relieve the taxpayer from the responsibility of paying the bill to obtain a lien release. The
Tax Collector simply does not spend additional time and money pursuing inactive
accounts. It has been three years since the department last discharged uncollectable
delinquent unsecured tax accounts. The delinquent unsecured tax roll currently contains
1,408 tax accounts (businesses, mobile homes, boats, airplanes, mining claims, etc.) that
the department considers uncollectable debt. These accounts represent $479,072.25 in
taxes and penalties.The majority of the accounts included on the discharge list are unpaid
business property tax assessments (mostly for defunct or bankrupt entities), followed by
supplemental or escaped bills on real property, and taxes assessed on mobile homes,
mining and mineral claims, boats, and aircraft. The delinquent unsecured discharge
process has been discussed with, and is supported by, the Butte County Auditor-
Controller - action requested - APPROVE REQUEST TO DISCHARGE FROM THE PROPERTY
TAX ROLL 1,408 DELINQUENT UNSECURED ACCOUNTS THAT ARE TEN YEARS OR OLDER
AND ARE CONSIDERED TO BE UNCOLLECTABLE.

4.05* Comprehensive Economic Development Strategy Project Priority List 2013-2014 - The
Economic Development Administration (EDA) requires the 3CORE Economic Development
District to complete a five year planning document, the Comprehensive Economic
Development Strategy (CEDS), in order to guide regional economic development efforts.
3CORE utilizes the CEDS to identify and prioritize public works and other economic
development projects within the District for their member jurisdictions. Part of the CEDS
document includes a list of priority economic development projects for each 3CORE
member jurisdiction. "Priority A" projects include those projects that are proposed to
move forward in the near term, "Priority B" projects include those that are proposed to
move forward within the next five years, and "Priority C' projects include those projects
that are likely to move forward sometime in the future. Taking into consideration the
EDA's Investment Guidelines, and the 2012-2013 approved Butte County CEDS priority
project list, staff is recommending a 2013-2014 priority project list for approval. When
developing the priority project list, staff took into consideration the General Plan 2030
document, the County's Capital Improvement Program, and the Butte County Regional
Economic Development Strategy. Once approved, 3CORE will work with the County to
pursue funding to assist in meeting the County's project priority goals-action requested -

discussed at the end of the Regular Agenda.
