The State mandates contracting with managed care hospitals based on a county's historical utilization. Butte County Department of Behavioral Health(BCDBH) began drafting the managed care hospital agreements in March but needed to wait for each "host county" (county in which the hospital exists), to negotiate its rates with the hospital for the new fiscal year. Once negotiated, the contract must be fully executed by the respective governing board. The State is notified by the host county of the contracted rates,and all other counties who contract with the hospital utilize those rates per the direction of the State. Due to these requirements, agreements with managed care hospitals are typically approved later in the fiscal year. Approval is requested for an agreement with BHC Heritage Oaks Hospital, Inc. to provide inpatient psychiatric services for clients referred by BCDBH. The term of this agreement will be July 1, 2017 through June 30, 2019.

(Information Systems) 3.20 Agreement for Bird Abatement Services at the Neal Road Recycling and Waste Facility-Title 27, Section 20810, of the California Code of Regulations, requires solid waste facility operators to control or prevent the propagation of vectors and birds at sanitary landfills. Specifically, enforcement agencies consider seagulls to be vectors, like pigeons or rats, that eat garbage. Seagulls not only potentially spread disease but habituate to surroundings, harass landfill workers and customers, are difficult to eradicate, and are an overall nuisance. Historical practices to minimize seagull populations included the use of streamers, kites, noise makers,and radio controlled planes to spread flocks. However, these practices had poor overall effect in changing seagull behavior patterns. Protected under the Migratory Bird Treaty Act, seagulls cannot be hunted, poisoned or destroyed without a special permit. Over the past four years, Dave Myers Bird Abatement Services of Oroville, California, provided seagull eradication services at the Neal Road Recycling and Waste Facility (NRRWF) by using raptors to reduce a local transient but persistent population, numbering from the thousands to just small flocks. The raptors, trained not to kill or eat seagulls, humanely and effectively displaced the seagulls to forage from natural habitats, such as rivers or lakes, instead of NRRWF. On September 26, 2017, the department solicited quotes from bird abatement contractors utilizing raptors. Dave Myers Bird Abatement Services was the sole respondent to the solicitation. The contractor is licensed and regulated by the U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service and permitted to operate in California. The contract provides for bird abatement services during seagull season, which is typically October through April. The contract amount is not to exceed $100,000 and the term expires April 30, 2020—action requested -APPROVE AGREEMENT AND AUTHORIZE THE CHAIR TO SIGN.

(Employment and Social Services) 4.08 Lease Agreement with North Valley Mall II, LLC, for Department of Employment and Social Services - The Butte County Department of Employment and Social Services (DESS) delivers a wide variety of services from several locations in Butte County including a leased facility located at 2445 Carmichael Drive in Chico. The lease expires on November 30, 2018 and covers 53,975 square feet with a rate of approximately$1.183673 per square foot for a total monthly payment of$63,888.74.The facility no longer meets the needs of DESS, and remodeling the facility is not feasible. Therefore, DESS desires to relocate under a new lease to the North Valley Plaza Mall located at 765 East Avenue in Chico. Under the terms of the new lease, there will be no rent charges accrued until September 1, 2018 to allow the County to design necessary tenant improvements. During the two-month construction phase, rent will increase to awarehouse rate of$0.85 per square foot. Starting November 1, 2018, the rate will increase to $1.65 per foot for the 32,300 square foot offices spanning two suites, for a total monthly payment of$53,295. In addition, upon occupancy by DESS or by November 1, 2018,the lease will be amended to include an adjustment for common area charges at a rate of 10% of actual audited costs for common area charges of the entire complex. Although these charges do experience minor fluctuations from time to time, the current common area charges run approximately $0.10 per square foot for the department. At $1.75 per foot, which includes the rent and anticipated common area charges,the total monthly payment will be approximately$56,525.This is a reduction of current lease payments at 2445 Carmichael. The lease, with the termination date of October 31, 2038, includes escalation language common to commercial leases in the current market. Staff will return to the Board for approval of the contract for the construction phase of the relocation at a later date.The exact cost of tenant improvements is unknown at this point but sufficient funding has been set aside for this purpose—action requested -APPROVE AGREEMENT AND AUTHORIZE THE CHAIR TO SIGN.

As part of the agreement, DSA General and DSA Management members agreed to contribute an additional 1% in compensation towards the employer's share of CalPERS retirement contributions. The parties also agreed to process a PERS Contract Amendment, which would credit this additional contribution towards the employee's account. CalPERS requires several steps to be completed before a contract amendment can become official. County staff has worked with CalPERS and completed several steps in the process. One of the final steps is for the Board of Supervisors to adopt an ordinance signifying the contract change prior to the contract amendment going into effect — action requested - ADOPT ORDINANCE AUTHORIZING THE CHAIR TO SIGN THE AMENDMENT. (Human Resources) 4.10 Deputy Sheriff's Association Side Letter Agreements-In 2015,a 5%Basic POST incentive pay was added for the classifications of Deputy Sheriff and Sergeant in the Deputy Sheriff's Association (DSA)-General Unit to address recruitment challenges for these classifications. Approval of side letters with the DSA-General Unit and DSA-Management Unit are recommended to extend the 5% Basic POST incentive pay to the Investigator I/II, Investigative Lieutenant, Sheriff's Captain and Sheriff's Lieutenant. Staff recommend these changes to reduce existing compaction between the Deputy Sheriff and Investigator I/II salaries, increase recruitment and retention of current and prospective employees, and provide better opportunities for upward mobility. The County and the DSA have also agreed to move from a calendar Year qualifying period to a rolling 12-month period to measure employee eligibility for Family Medical Leave. Employees will retain all statutorily required leave entitlement, however, this administrative change will allow the County to better meet its operational needs — action requested - APPROVE SIDE LETTER AGREEMENTS AND AUTHORIZE THE CHAIR TO SIGN. (Human Resources) 4.11 Authorization to Provide Green Waste Mulch to the Public Free of Charge -On August 23, 2016, the Department of Public Works provided the Board of Supervisors with an update of obstacles staff faced with recycling green waste and wood waste at the Neal Road Recycling and Waste Facility(NRRWF). The Board approved a proposed public outreach plan to discontinue recycling of green waste and wood waste at the NRRWF. Customers continue to deliver green waste and wood waste to the NRRWF despite efforts to redirect those customers to facilities that can use the material for a beneficial use, such as compost. Rather than landfill the material, the NRRWF pays to have the material ground and uses it to cover trash at the end of the day. However, it is not a good material for that purpose and it is not a good practice to fill the landfill with material that can be better used for other purposes.With the recent wildfires,there is a need for erosion control measures in the burned-out areas.The materials can also be used by the public in other areas. The department requests authorization to make ground-up green waste / wood waste available to the public free of charge in order to prevent it being landfilled —action requested - AUTHORIZE THE DEPARTMENT OF PUBLIC WORKS TO PROVIDE MULCH GENERATED BY THE NRRWF TO THE PUBLIC FREE OF CHARGE. (Public Works) 4.12 Resolution Accepting the Sustainable Agricultural Lands Conservation Strategy-The Sustainable Agricultural Lands Conservation Strategy (SALC) Strategy is a set of living tools and information intended to assist farmers, ranchers,and others in voluntarily conserving agricultural lands while achieving key sustainability goals of carbon sequestration,greenhouse gas emissions reductions, water conservation, and groundwater recharge. Funding comes from California Climate Investments (CCI), a statewide program that puts billions of cap-and-trade dollars to work. Using CCI funds, local governments can evaluate which agricultural lands are most productive and critically threatened, and develop locally appropriate strategies that ensure the long-term Page 13 BUTTE COUNTY BOARD OF SUPERVISORS AGENDA-OCTOBER 24,2017 protection of those lands. The SALC Strategy focuses on connecting Butte County farmers and ranchers to statewide incentive programs for production and sale of carbon offsets due to the conservation and/or composting of rangelands; or the dry seeding, straw baling, and/or early drainage of rice fields; as well as incentives for other sustainable practices such as cover crops, rotational grazing, buffer strips, and irrigation improvements. In developing the Strategy,County staff identified key findings: Butte County's rangelands sequester large amounts of carbon, and can sequester much more; composting grazed grasslands in Butte County could substantially improve the productivity of these lands; and rice cultivation and other agricultural lands and practices can also contribute to achieving key sustainability goals. SALC work products include a dedicated website that will continue to be updated — action requested - 1) ACCEPT THE SALC STRATEGY FOR INFORMATION; AND 2) ADOPT RESOLUTION AND AUTHORIZE THE CHAIR TO SIGN.

Five departments (Agricultural Department, Development Services, Public Health, Treasurer-Tax Collector and Fire) are now recommending additional adjustments to the current fees which requires a public hearing and approval by the Board of Supervisors. Staff is also proposing amendments to County Code regarding the fee escalator language that is currently referenced in multiple locations within Code.
