These previously approved and completed actions separated an 8.8-acre area of the property developed with 21 seasonal hunting cabins and six other permanent structures from the 1,423-acre remainder of the property, which would remain in the amended contract as open space for managed wetland. The amended contract would also reflect the property's revised internal boundaries (Exhibit A of staff report) and incorporate a managed wetland area plan (Exhibit B of staff report). Review of the lot line adjustment, cancellation, managed wetland area plan and contract amendment by the County has been consistent with guidance provided by the California Department of Conservation. The Board of Supervisors approved the lot line adjustment on December 9, 2014 and the tentative partial cancellation on March 24, 2015. The final certificate of partial cancellation was recorded on June 10, 2015. The managed wetland area plan and amended contract are the final approvals needed to complete this set of actions. The Williamson Act Advisory Committee reviewed the amended contract and managed wetland area plan on September 15, 2014 and recommended that the land to be re- enrolled in the Williamson Act is used for the preservation of important open space for managed wetlands and meets the definition of a managed wetland area under Section 51201(l) and the County's program. The Committee further recommended that both the managed wetland area plan and the amended contract are consistent with the County's program, and therefore recommended approval of these items to the Board of Supervisors. Per Rule 5.B.1 of the Williamson Act program, the Board must approve the managed wetland area plan before approving the amended Williamson Act contract - action requested 1) DETERMINE THAT THE PROPERTY, SUBJECT TO AMENDED CONTRACT LCA14- 0002, MEETS THE DEFINITION OF A MANAGED WETLAND AREA IN SECTION 51201(l), AND APPROVE THE MANAGED WETLAND AREA PLAN (EXHIBIT B OF THE AMENDED CONTRACT); 2) APPROVE THE AMENDED WILLIAMSON ACT CONTRACT AND AUTHORIZE THE CHAIR TO SIGN; AND 3) DIRECT THE CLERK OF THE BOARD TO RECORD THE AMENDED CONTRACT, SUBJECT TO THE APPLICANT'S PAYMENT OF ANY OUTSTANDING FEES.

Public Works crews at the time made temporary repairs to shore the shoulder with large rocks so that further collapse of the road would not occur. Upon further investigation, it was determined that the entire length of both pipes is in need of replacement. The method determined to be the most expeditious for this site was to rehabilitate the two pipes by slipping two 36-inch high density polyethylene (HDPE) pipes into the existing CMP structures, which will limit the amount of in-channel work and road closures. Minor extensions of the culvert on the south side of the road will occur. The roadway section will be partially excavated to repair the compromised road structure. In order to install the HDPE pipe, approximately 32.3 cubic yards of accumulated sediment will also be removed from the downstream side of the water course. No water will need to be diverted due to the ephemeral nature of the tributary and the associated timing of the project, which is planned to occur before the winter rains when there is no flow in the channel.

The State recognized that new court facilities built by the State may impose additional court security responsibilities and government Code section 69927 permits counties to seek funding to cover costs associated with the activation of a new courthouse. On February 25, 2015, the Sheriff's Office applied for Department of Finance (DOF) funding to off-set the impacts of the north county courthouse opening by substantiating a need for 14 additional staff for a total cost of $1,373,000. On June 25, 2015, the DOF affirmed a need for 3.5 new staff and awarded an ongoing budget augmentation of $322,500 to the Sheriff's budget. Additionally, DOF awarded the Sheriff's Office one-time funds in the amount of $107,000 to compensate the Office for start-up operating expenses. The Sheriff's Office has submitted a letter of appeal to request additional funding for court operations. The DOF allows a county to employ those positions necessary and appropriate with the funding awarded. The $322,500 will fund four additional positions and the Sheriff's Office is requesting one deputy, one correctional deputy and two sheriff security officer positions to staff the north county courthouse. The one-time award of $107,000 will be used to off- set general fund operating expenses to run the court - action requested - APPROVE BUDGET ADJUSTMENT (4/5 vote required).

AUGUST 11, 2015 BOARD OF SUPERVISORS AGENDA PAGE 10 OF 15 4.05* SB 863 Financing Program for Jail Construction, Application and Resolution - The existing Butte County Jail lacks the proper capacity for our population, and the capacity it has is inadequate due to impacts of AB 109. The Prison Realignment of 2011 has resulted in longer sentences and inmates serving time for more serious crimes. Over the years, the Sheriff has had to release significant numbers of inmates to avoid overcrowding, and has been limited in the kind of programs that can be run in the jail suitable for the new population. There is a need for a new kind of jail, one that can house more inmates while being able to provide services aimed at reducing recidivism. The Sheriff, the Chief Administrative Office and County General Services are requesting approval to apply for up to $40 million in State funding through the Construction of Adult Local Criminal Justice Facilities Project under the SB 863 Financing Program. Funding will require the County to contribute a minimum of $4.445 million combined cash and in-kind match. Cash match includes impact fees and inmate welfare funds. In-kind includes land value and staff time dedicated to project management and transition planning. The proposed project is to construct a stand-alone facility located adjacent to the existing jail. The new facility would include 36 special population beds for treatment of inmates with medical and mental health issues, a new medical and dental clinic, 96 beds to replace existing substandard cells, a variety of program treatment rooms, and a new central control and intake area. It is anticipated that operating costs will increase by about $1 million annually over current operating expenses. Counties throughout the State are applying for these limited funds, which will be awarded based on the proposed project and counties' ability to demonstrate readiness-to-proceed. Proposals are due to the Board of State and Community Corrections (BSCC) on August 28, 2015 action requested - ADOPT RESOLUTION AND AUTHORIZE THE CHAIR TO SIGN. (Sheriff) 4.06* Architectural Planning and Programming Design Services for Sheriff's Evidence-Morgue Building Project - The existing Sheriff's Evidence structure was built in the mid-1960s. The corrugated metal structure lacks proper accommodations, including climate control, and is no longer serviceable. Replacing the structure with an adequate evidence storage/morgue facility has been included in the Capital Improvement Program since 2004. The first phase of the project requires a contract with a design team for planning and programming the final facility design. Nacht & Lewis, the architectural firm that was selected during the formal solicitation process in 2014, has been determined to best meet the needs of the County for this phase of the project. Staff recommends that the Board execute the $64,970 contract, with an end date of December 31, 2015, to allow the Sheriff and General Services to complete the first phase of the project. Funding for this phase of the project is included in the approved FY 2015-16 budget and no additional appropriation is necessary action requested 1) APPROVE AGREEMENT AND AUTHORIZE THE CHAIR TO SIGN SUBJECT TO REVIEW BY COUNTY COUNSEL AND AUDITOR-CONTROLLER; AND 2) APPOINT THE GENERAL SERVICES DIRECTOR AS OFFICER OF THE PROJECT.

One initiative in the Strategy calls for establishing a reliable funding source for regional tourism, such as a Tourism Business Improvement District (TBID). A TBID is funded by a special benefit assessment; non-tax funds are raised through a small assessment on lodging stays and then used to provide services, in this case tourism promotion, directly benefitting the businesses paying the assessment. Nearly 90 TBIDs operate in California providing tourism promotion services. Short-term lodging businesses in Butte County that will pay 58% of the assessment under the Butte County Tourism Business Improvement District (BCTBID) have submitted petitions requesting the Butte County Board of Supervisors initiate proceedings to form a TBID in accordance with the Property and Business Improvement District Law of 1994. The lodging businesses have developed the Management District Plan (MDP) for the BCTBID, which outlines the details for the district including district boundaries, budget, services, governance, and district membership. The purpose of the BCTBID is to promote tourism to Butte County and increase overnight stays at lodging businesses within the County. In order to fund tourism promotion services, district members (lodging businesses) assess 2% on gross, short- Association, which will be comprised of all district members and governed by a Board of Directors chosen by the district membership. Each jurisdiction within the County will be responsible for collecting the assessed funds on a monthly or quarterly basis and remitting them directly to the BCTBID Owners Association action requested - ADOPT RESOLUTION AND AUTHORIZE THE CHAIR TO SIGN. (County Administration) 5.02* 9:40 a.m. - Public Hearing - Updated County ADA Transition Plan and Amendment of Resolution Designating ADA Compliance Officer - Butte County's Americans with Disabilities Act (ADA)/Accessibility Self-Evaluation is nearly 17 years old (The Otten Report, 1998). Changing uses of County facilities, new design guidelines, and changing legislation made an update necessary. In order to address compliance with ADA requirements, the County was awarded a Community Development Block Grant to complete Phase 1 of a new Self-Evaluation and Transition Plan, which includes an assessment of 21 facilities most frequently accessed by members of the public. In addition, the County, with its own funding, also completed Phase 2 - Rights of Way and Phase 3 - Policies and Procedures of the Self-Evaluation process and staff are developing the County's Updated ADA Transition Plan based upon the results of that process.
