OCTOBER 7,2014-BOARD OF SUPERVISORS AGENDA PAGE 3 OF 10
3.12* Signalization of Lower Wyandotte Road and Monte Vista Avenue Intersection - In 2012, the County
was awarded a Federal Highway Administration (FHWA) 2011 Congestion Mitigation and Air Quality
(CMAQ) Program Grant in the amount of $343,352, for the construction of traffic signal
improvements at the intersection of Lower Wyandotte Road and Monte Vista Avenue south of the
City of Oroville. Each roadway and the intersection were previously improved with curb, gutter,
sidewalk, ADA pedestrian ramps, storm drain, and paving improvements with two separate State and
Federal Safe Routes to School Program Grants. The intersection was improved with all-way stop
controls and was prepared for the future installation of traffic signals. All the necessary right of way,
pedestrian ramps, conduits, pull boxes, and traffic detection loops are already in place, so that there
will be minimal disruption during proposed construction of the traffic signal improvements. The
project will also include restriping the intersection to provide left turn pockets and a center turn lane
along the Lower Wyandotte Road intersection approaches, which will require elimination of adjacent
on-street parking. This area has a past history of rear end and sideswipe accidents to parked vehicles
due to the narrow roadway and inattentive drivers that has resulted in incidences of residents
parking partially on sidewalks and blocking the school children's path to school. The current
engineer's estimate for this work is $338,000. If the final reimbursable costs come in below the
currently programmed amount of $343,352, no matching local funds will be required. The Public
Works Department is requesting authorization to advertise and solicit bids for the construction of
this project - Federal Project No. CML-5912(102), County Project No. 23513-2012-02 — action
requested - 1) APPROVE THE PROJECT; 2) AUTHORIZE THE DIRECTOR OF PUBLIC WORKS TO
ADVERTISE AND SOLICIT BIDS FOR THE CONSTRUCTION OF THE PROJECT; AND 3) AUTHORIZE CHAIR
AND DIRECTOR TO SIGN PLANS. (Public Works)
3.13* Acceptance of State of California, Division of Boating and Waterways Grant - The Butte County
Sheriff's Office is requesting to accept a grant from the State of California, Department of Parks and
Recreation, Division of Boating and Waterways. The Surrendered and Abandoned Vessels Exchange
(SAVE) grant in the amount of$23,000 has been awarded to the Sheriff's Office. The SAVE Grant is a
combination of two programs: The Abandoned Watercraft Abatement Fund and the Vessel Turn-In
Program. The grant funds can be used for either purpose. This is the first year of the grant and the
Sheriff is very supportive of this program which will remove vessels that pose a substantial hazard to
water enthusiasts, as well as offer citizens a resource for disposing of unwanted vessels. The term of
the grant is October 1, 2014 through October 1, 2016.The grant requires a 10% match of$2,300 and
will be met by using general funded personnel providing administrative staff oversight of grant
activities and financial staff oversight of grant expenditures and filing of claims. The State is
requesting an original minute order authorizing Sheriff Kort Honea as signatory of the contract —
action requested — 1) AUTHORIZE SHERIFF KORY HONEA TO SIGN THE GRANT AGREEMENT; AND 2)
APPROVE BUDGET ADJUSTMENT. (4/5 vote required) (Sheriff)

4.05* PERS Post-Retirement Employment Exemption - The California Public Employees' (PERS) Pension
Reform Act of 2013 requires newly retired persons to "sit out" for at least 180 days before returning
to work for an employer in the same retirement system from which they receive a retirement
allowance. An exemption to this rule is provided with governing body approval and adoption of a
"Resolution for Exception to the 180-Day Wait Period to Hire CALPERS Retiree Per Government Code
Sections 7522.56 & 21224" that must be submitted to CALPERS. The Assessor's Office has one Office
Manager position that is responsible for a substantial number of departmental administrative
functions (billing, personnel, etc.), budget assistance and other job specific duties. The position is
responsible for assistance with mission critical functions. The incumbent retired effective August 29,
2014. Although the position was filled, there is a critical need to have the retiree available for short-
term, intermittent periods to assist the new hire on critical aspects of the position. The department
anticipates utilizing this exemption on an as-needed-basis to assist with specific job related
procedures to advance the new hire's transition and during an absence. Given unique subject matter
expertise, the retiree is the only person capable meeting this critical short-term need. Having the
ability to draw upon the expertise of the retiree during the new hire's transition period will assure
Departmental program continuity and success. The Director of Human Resources has reviewed the
facts and concurs that the request is consistent with the exemption outlined in Government Code
Section 7522.56(f)(1) - action requested - 1) APPROVE PERS POST-RETIREMENT EXEMPTION
PURSUANT TO SECTION 7522.56 OF THE GOVERNMENT CODE; AND 2) ADOPT RESOLUTION AND
AUTHORIZE THE CHAIR TO SIGN. (Assessor)

4.06* Sustainable Groundwater Management Act - On September 16, 2014, Governor Brown signed into
law a package of bills (SB1168, AB1739 and SB1319) collectively called the Sustainable Groundwater
Management Act (Act). The Act is a comprehensive reform of California's groundwater management.
For basins that meet state priority criteria, a local agency or a collection of local agencies must notify
the State by June 30, 2017 of their intent to be a Groundwater Sustainability Agency. Counties are
presumed to be the Groundwater Sustainability Agency for the areas not within the jurisdictional
boundaries of local public agencies (i.e., water districts). Groundwater Sustainability Agencies are
responsible for developing and implementing Groundwater Sustainability Plans (Plans) by January
31, 2022 for basins not in critical overdraft. Plans must evaluate the sustainability of the basin and
identify actions that will be implemented to achieve sustainability over a 20 year period.
Groundwater Sustainability Agencies will have broad authority to regulate well pumping, to require
reporting, to set fees and to enforce locally enacted groundwater rules. The Act requires
collaboration between Groundwater Sustainability Agencies and land use agencies. The State will
have direct oversight of Groundwater Sustainability Agencies and their performance. The State
Water Board will have the authority to intervene and impose its management in the absence of a
Groundwater Sustainability Agency, a failure to submit a Plan or a failure to adequately implement a
Plan. The State Water Resources Board would assume local water resource management
responsibilities including well permitting, groundwater pumping restrictions, groundwater reporting
and fees. The initial implementation of the Act will be based on guidance and regulations developed
by the Department of Water Resources beginning in 2015 — action requested — ACCEPT FOR
INFORMATION. (Water and Resource Conservation)
4.07* Donation of Capital Assets for Wildland Fire Detection Cameras - In partnership with PG&E and
Yankee Hill Fire Safe Council (YHFSC) Butte County Fire Department has received a donation of five
remote fire monitoring cameras with an estimated value of $195,000. The Wildland Fire Detection
Camera System will enhance Butte County's fire protection through intelligence gathering and
validation of a reported wildland or other fire in the remote areas of Butte County. The cameras will
be strategically located on the north, central and southern areas of eastern Butte County to provide
the greatest coverage 24/7.The cameras use sensors to detect potential fires and immediately notify
the Emergency Command Center where a dispatcher reviews the image to confirm a report of a fire
or of an unreported fire. The Fire Department will assume ownership and responsibility for the
remote detection equipment and monitoring system. PG&E funds will install and provide camera
maintenance for the first year of operation, after which it will become the responsibility of the Fire
Department—action requested —ACCEPT THE DONATION OF THE CAMERAS FROM THE YANKEE HILL
FIRE SAFE COUNCIL AND APPROVE CAPITAL ASSET ACQUISITION. (Fire)

4.08* Contract Approval and Budget Adjustment for Agilis Ballot Sorting and Signature Recognition
S sy tem - The County Clerk-Recorder/Registrar of Voters recommends approval of a contract with
Runbeck Election Services for the Agilis Ballot Sorting System with automatic Signature Recognition
System, for processing returned voted ballot envelopes. The current system worked well for many
years, but became inoperable and could not be used in the 2014 Primary Election. By 2016 the
County must prepare for impact of new legislation that allows voters to register and vote in the
Elections Office from the 14th day before an election up through the close of polls on Election Day,
which will further increase the manual processes if no new system is in place. In order to replace the
old system, the Department issued a competitive solicitation to which two vendors responded. The
vendors included Bell & Howell ($309,008.75) and Runbeck Election Services ($273,050). The
Runbeck system offers the same capabilities as the system used in the past, and as specified in the
solicitation, but adds envelope sorting and opening as components. The new system will create
greater operational efficiencies and will fully automate the time-consuming manual process of
sorting out envelopes with no signature, irregular signatures, or double thickness, as well as sorting
ballots that are considered "good" to precinct level and opening them. The maximum amount of the
contract is $273,050, of which $242,412.50 is reimbursable under the Help America Vote Act. The
term of the contract is from the date executed by the County through June 30, 2017. The FY 2014-15
payment of 242,412.50 is for purchase of the system (capital asset), with a second payment for
maintenance and licensing of$30,637.50 in FY 2016-17—action requested— 1) APPROVE CONTRACT
AND AUTHORIZE THE CHAIR TO SIGN; 2) APPROVE PURCHASE OF CAPITAL ASSET; AND 3) APPROVE
BUDGET ADJUSTMENT(4/5 vote required). (Clerk-Recorder/Elections)
