Center Drive - On April 12, 2016, the Board of Supervisors approved a contract with Santos
Excavating to make site improvements to 25 County Center Drive. The project, aimed directly at
improving accessibility, and as included in the County's Americans with Disability Act Transition Plan,
entails the following: construction of a new sidewalk along the south side of the facility along with a
cross walk to the south entrance; and the reconstruction of the existing parking stalls to comply with
current codes and requirements. The current not-to-exceed cost of the contract is $146,446.10.
Now, despite the use of an "Underground Service Alert" intended to locate utilities in the area, a
water line that traverses the work area has been discovered that was not correctly identified by the
Water District during the design process. That waterline has now been exposed and is in conflict
with the proposed new sidewalk. General Services' staff, the Design Engineer, the Contractor, and
the Water District have met and determined that it is in the best interest of the County, partly due to
the age of the infrastructure, to remove and replace approximately 60 linear feet of waterline. The
change order, totaling $21,051.58, exceeds the authority vested in staff to execute without Board
approval. Staff recommends that the Board authorize the General Services Director to execute
contract change order number 2, bringing the amended not-to-exceed cost of the contract to

3.28* Amendment to Nacht and Lewis Performance Criteria Contracts: Jail Expansion and Evidence /
Morgue Projects - On February 23, 2016, the Board approved two contracts, one for the
Supplemental Jail project and one for the Evidence/Morgue project, both with Nacht and Lewis for
Design Build Performance Criteria Architectural services. The contracts excluded topographical
survey work, as the County originally intended for the topographic survey services to be provided at
a later date as part of the scope of work to be completed by the design-build entity. Upon further
review and analysis, it has been determined that it will be in the County's best interest to have the
results from both topographical surveys prior to contracting with the design-build entity so that
more site details are known before negotiations begin. In addition, combining both surveys under
Nacht and Lewis will provide maximum efficiency and minimize costs. Staff recommends that the
Board approve an amendment to the Supplemental Jail project design services contract in the
amount of$55,385, bringing the amended not-to-exceed price to $1,677,880, and an amendment to

square feet, is in excess to the needs of the County and has been useful to the State Administrative
Office of the Courts (AOC) for use by the Grand Jury and other local Court related activities. Pursuant
to Government Code § 70353, the County is responsible to make a "County Facilities Payment" (CFP)
to the AOC under the Trial Courts Facilities Act of 2002 (SB 1732). Instead of paying the CFP, the
County has been providing monthly utilities utilized by the local Courts in the basement of the
Carnegie Library building. The utilities for the entire 2,500 square foot facility run approximately
$238 per month, and it is estimated that the basement portion utilizes approximately$65 in utilities

base liner system, which is scheduled to be completed in the fall of 2017. Golder Associates has
prepared plans and specifications for the project consistent with previous designs. The preliminary
engineer's estimate for the project is $1,700,000. The Department of Public Works is requesting
authorization to advertise and solicit bids for the construction of Project No. 757-7515-07 - action

3.42* Disposal/Exchange of Dewatered Sewage Bio-Solids and Landfill Liquids with the City of Chico - For
the last several years, the Department of Public Works and City of Chico Public Works Department
have operated under a letter agreement which established a formula of exchange for the disposal of
Neal Road Recycling and Waste Facility's (NRRWF) septage supernatant and the City's Water
Pollution Control Plant (WPCP) treated bio-solids. A letter agreement between the Departments of
Public Works for the County and the City was executed July 1, 2015, establishing an exchange rate
for FY 2015-16. The terms are the same as in previous years. The liquid disposal rate was set at
$0.085 per gallon and the rate for solid waste disposal was set at $40.61 per ton. The formula
provides the disposal cost for the WPCP's bio-solids if converted to a "credit" for an equivalent
amount of septage supernatant the NRRWF can dispose. Septage supernatant exceeding the agreed
exchange amount (credit) is subject to liquid disposal fees. The County delivered 2,383,697 gallons
over the exchange amount for the period July 2015 through April 2016. Staff estimate an additional
1,050,000 gallons will be sent to the WPCP for the period May 2016 through June 2016. The amount
of supernatant liquids disposal is substantially higher than in past years because the NRRWF is in the
process of decommissioning the septage supernatant pond. The amount the NRRWF will owe the
WPCP based on the current agreement is projected to be approximately$315,000. Board approval is
required for agreements exceeding $125,000, and the department requests the Board ratify the
current letter agreement with the City of Chico - action requested - 1) RATIFY THE AGREEMENT AND
AUTHORIZE THE CHAIR TO SIGN; AND, 2) AUTHORIZE PAYMENT TO THE CITY OF CHICO IN
ACCORDANCE WITH THE RATES LISTED IN THE AGREEMENT IN AN AMOUNT NOT-TO-EXCEED

Lincoln Boulevard Pedestrian Safety project. The original contract amount was $304,400. The Board
approved an amendment to the BPA on October 27, 2015, to increase the amount of the agreement
by $10,000. The project is nearing the end of the right of way acquisition phase, however, due to a
number of issues including difficulty finding property owners, issues regarding eminent domain,
difficult negotiations, and the number of parcels needing to be acquired, additional work is necessary
to finalize and close out all escrows.The department recommends amending the BPA to increase the
amount by$15,000 for a total agreement not-to-exceed $329,400.The completion date and all other
terms of the agreement remain the same - action requested - APPROVE AGREEMENT AMENDMENT

Bridge Replacement - The Department of Public Works is planning to replace an existing load
restricted bridge on Central House Road at the intersection of Wyman Ravine approximately 0.2
miles west of State Route 70 and south of the City of Oroville. The new bridge will be a three-span,
pre-stressed, cast-in-place reinforced concrete slab type highway bridge approximately 200 feet in
length. The bridge will accommodate two 12-foot lanes with 4-foot shoulders for an overall clear
roadway width of 32 feet between open metal tube bridge railing. It is proposed to be constructed

Safety Improvement Program (HSIP) Grant in the amount of$900,000, for the construction of safety
improvements on Lincoln Boulevard between Elgin Street and Arnold Avenue. The project was re-
scoped in 2014 due to costs, which reduced the length to between Myers Street and Arnold Avenue.
The federal funding was subsequently reduced to $872,197. The project is located to the south of
the City of Oroville and will include the construction of sidewalks, curb and gutter, curb ramps,
drainage works, pedestrian activated flashing beacons at the mid-block crosswalks, asphalt
pavement, and pavement markings. The project was advertised beginning May 24, 2016. Four bids
were opened on June 14, 2016. The lowest bidder was Franklin Construction, Inc. of Chico, CA. The
low bid amount was $1,752,964. The bid amount from Franklin was 14% above the engineer's
estimate of$1,537,788. The Department of Public Works has reviewed the bid and other required
documents submitted with the bid and has determined Franklin's bid is responsible and responsive
to the bid request. The project costs are funded by the HSIP Grant.The local match is included in the
Road Fund budget. There is no impact to the County General Fund - action requested - AWARD THE
CONTRACT TO THE LOWEST RESPONSIBLE AND RESPONSIVE BIDDER AND AUTHORIZE THE DIRECTOR

3.46* Amendment to Agreement with Quincy Engineering Inc. for Design Services Related to the Midway
Bridge Replacement - On September 25, 2012, the County executed an agreement with Quincy
Engineering Inc., of Sacramento, CA, for the development of contract plans, specifications, and
estimate required to construct the Midway Bridge across Butte Creek at a cost not-to-exceed
$1,677,999.12. The contract was amended April 8, 2014 to provide additional technical
investigations required to address the potential for hazardous materials, which increased the
contract amount to $1,740,270.91. The department has a need to develop revised technical studies,
plan sheets, and environmental studies required to deliver the change in roadway alignment and
bridge configuration from a design that changed the proposed structure from just downstream of
the existing bridge to an alignment along the existing roadway alignment. This change in design was
brought upon by a series of public meetings held in the Durham and Richvale communities in which
there was public support for the existing roadway alignment. The amendment increases the
agreement by $426,740.07 for a total amount of$2,167,010.90 and extends the original completion
date from June 30, 2018 through June 30, 2019 - action requested - APPROVE AGREEMENT

County and Butte County.The cost of this project is estimated to be $3,151,000 of which 88.53%will
be funded through the Federal Highway Bridge Program. Yuba County has requested Butte County
share the local funding match of 11.47% of the project cost because the two counties have a history
of shared maintenance on this structure and replacing the structure benefits both counties. Butte
County and Yuba County partnered successfully on a similar bridge replacement project completed in
2011 just west of this location on Loma Rica Road - action requested - APPROVE THE AGREEMENT

3.48* Agreement with CSU Chico Research Foundation for Inmate Services - As a result of a lawsuit filed
August 15, 1984 by inmates in the jail (Jones v. Brooks, Sup. Ct. Case No. 084429), the County and
inmates entered into a court-ordered Consent Decree on February 22, 1985 that is under the
jurisdiction of the Butte County Superior Court. In accordance with the County's obligation to
provide inmates with "meaningful access to the courts" the Consent Decree requires that the jail
maintain a law library that is staffed by Legal Research Assistants (LRA's), CSU Chico students
participating in the University's paralegal program. This agreement established that the LRA's are
employees of the CSU Chico Research Foundation (Foundation) and are covered by the Foundation's
workers' compensation coverage. The agreement provides that the LRA's are to be paid $10.00 per
hour through December 31, 2016 and $10.50 per hour January 1, 2017 through June 30, 2017. The

system purchased allows for automated inmate tracking and scheduling for court, tracking of visitors
and inmate medical appointments. The Securus System allows the Sheriff's Office to manage all
inmates, from booking to release. The system has been in use for the past three Years and is
performing well. Due to the Sheriff's Office financial and time investment in the new system,
General Services approved a Standardization Request (SO-28) for long term use of Securus Jail
Management System. The Sheriff's Office is requesting to amend the existing Securus Jail
Management System contract to include five Years of system maintenance of$55,200 per Year, for a
cost of$276,000, valid through May 7, 2021.The previous total cost of the system and three Years of

financial assistance to local agencies for sustainable groundwater management. DWR solicited
project proposals through the Counties with Stressed Basins Grant Program (Program). The Program
provides financial resources to eligible counties to advance sustainable groundwater management.
On January 12, 2016, the Board approved a resolution supporting a grant application. The County's
Department of Water and Resource Conservation was successful in securing grant funding for the
project entitled, "Evaluation of Restoration and Recharge Potential Within Groundwater Basins of
Butte County." The project is to prepare a map of areas conducive to groundwater recharge,
evaluate opportunities to recharge portions of the basin, and evaluate the costs and benefits of
utilizing surface water to irrigate orchards where it is available. The project is consistent with
policies and priorities of Butte County. The amount of the grant is $249,272 and the grant expires
March 30, 2018. These grants typically require a local match of 50 percent, but the local match was
waived because Butte County is a Disadvantaged Community as defined by the program - action

4.04* Master Lease: Southside Oroville Community Center to the Oroville Southside Community
Improvement Association - Following a formal Request for Proposals in 2011, the County contracted
with the Hignell Companies, the only firm responding to the solicitation, to manage the Southside
Oroville Community Center (SOCC) on behalf of the County. However, both County staff and the
Hignell Companies lack expertise in operating the type of facility required by many of the funding
sources used for the construction of the facility. Therefore, General Services published another
Request for Proposals in 2015 with only the Oroville Southside Community Improvements
Association, Inc. (OSCIA) responding despite extending the solicitation to give the City of Oroville
additional time to consider submitting a proposal. The Lord's Gym expressed an interest in operating
the facility, but only after the due date for proposals had passed. The OSCIA proposal projects a first
fiscal Year net profit of over$12,000, largely by eliminating management charges associated with the
Hignell Companies and without a per square foot rental rate increase for the existing anchor tenants
during the two Year term of a Master Lease. In addition, the OSCIA has received a $50,000 line of
unsecured credit to get the program up and going. More detail is available in the OSCIA proposal.
One of the largest funding sources, the Economic Development Administration, requires
reimbursement of approximately $1.5 million if the SOCC is sold before 2021, so selling at this point
is not feasible. Instead of accepting the proposal and executing a Master Lease, the County could
extend the solicitation again, or collapse it altogether and start over. Staff recommends that the
Board approve the Master Lease, a step necessary before the lease can be approved by the
Economic Development Agency, with traditional termination language. The lease will allow OSCIA to
demonstrate their ability to improve the use of the SOCC for the Southside community and, if
successful, relieves the County of net operating losses experienced in the past - action requested -

substance abuse services to this community. BCDBH has had difficulty related to recruitment and
retention of staff which has led to negative impacts on clients, the community, loss of revenue and
regulatory compliance issues. The requested range changes have been agreed to by BCMEA and
PEA. The classifications to be changed are: Psychiatric Nurse, Senior/Psychiatric Nurse/Psychiatric
Nurse, Associate; Behavioral Health Clinician III/II/I; Supervisor, Behavioral Health Counselor;
