as a designated position. This addition will increase the Youth Council from
14 to 15 members. CETAC representatives present to speak on this .issue.
Joe Miguel spoke on a couple of areas of concern. He said he realized
that the Council members. serve at the Board's pleasure. They feel that it is their
duty to point out areas that they feel will be a problem. The Council is concerned
with the Board.'s appointment of Welfare Director on this Council. They feel that the
Board members should be'' a part of the client sector. The Council recommends that
the Board reconsider the. Welfare Director as an additional member to the Council,
but not as a client representative.
Mra Glenn Halsey, Worthy Ave.,-Oroville, passed out information
to the Board members.. Present at this meeting as a concerned representative.
He is not in favor of the expansion of the council. Mr, Halsey stated that because
he worked for the Human Development Department he could not be on the council.

Welfare Director work with the prime sponsors.

Employment and Training Advisory Council, increasing membership from ten

78-543 DISCUSSION: COMMUNITY BASED ORGANIZATIONS PROJECTS
CETAC recommends the Board to reconsider the CETA Tit e VI
project priorities to permit higher priority ~1evels for funding community based
organizations project proposals.
Joe Miguel, representative from CETAC, spoke on the matter, He
said he was conveying the thoughts of the Council. They would like to recommend
that the Board reconsider the oti?der of priority of Title VI funds. Recommendation
explained,. .They do not feel the County is meeting the intent of CETA relating
to funding to community based organizations. Supervisor Richter asked what
statute indicates that-the County might be in violation, Section 9941. Prime
Sponsors should give consideration to Community based organizations.
Mrs. Lynn Stultz, Department of Labor, San Francisco, stated that
the Prime Sponsors should give consideration to providing funds to community based
organizations. One-third of the funds should be considered for these organizations.
Mr. Rackerby read the law on this subject; seems to him that the policy is in direct
.opposition to the law, Consideration should be given to the allocation of the funds.
The Board has agreed to conform to the regulations; regulations have the weight of the
law.
The Board felt that an attempt should be made to find someway to
determine if the County is obligated to go one way or the other.- Chairman Winston
said the Board was trying to get honest information. He said that he too gets
confused by the regulations and the policy, The policy is more restrictive than the
regulations. The County has to comply with the regulations. The regulations
do not tell the County who they should fund.
The Board requested that Mr. Rnckerby make a thorough investigation of this
matter and report back to the Board.
Mr. Rackerby explained the actions taken by the Board; they permit him
to deviate from fhe policy and fund certain agencies. Non-profit organizations
are funded 14% of the funds. Supervisor Richter felt that an effort should be made
to clarify these ega~estionso A meeting should be set up with Department of Labor,
with our Congressman, County Counsel, Mr. Rackerby and representatives of this
Board. Chairman Winston appointed Supervisors Lemke and Richter to meet with
this group. Mr, Rackerby will set u the meeting.

Mrs. Fran Wagstaff, member of CHIP,. stated she was interested
in this issue. They would like to rehabilitate houses for low income people, These
would be for people not on Welfare program. They are seeking Title Vl funds.
Last year they received a CETA grant from the Governor's Office so they could employ
people 'to work on these houses. Mrs. Wagstaff explained the projects they were
working on; these are homes of people living on Social Security or low incomes.
She commented on the fact that they will be excluded from Title VI funds, because
they are receiving funding from the City Revenue Sharing funds. The social needs
that they meet should be considered, she felt.
Chairman Winston told Mro Rackerby that he has the feeling of the Board;
community based organizations should be considered on a unit by unit basis.

Supervisor Richter requested that Bill Lawrence, County Auditor, be
present for a matter that concerns him. Mra Lawrence was present at this time.
The Board had a claim placed by the Auditor, also a memo explaining the
transaction. It would seem that there is a discrepancy i n the billingo Mr, Lawrence
had written on the billing from the motet that he was billing the County for the double
rate because the motel did not have any more single rooms available. His wife
had accompanied him on this trip, Supervisor Richter stated that what concerns him
is th,~t the Auditor wrote on the receipt billed at the double rate because singles
were unavailable. Supervisor Richter stated he had mode several phone tails
regarding this matter; Supervisor Madigan had listened on the extension phone to
the conversation he had with the motel; the motel disavows any such transaction
that they did not have single rooms available at the time of Mr, Lawrence's stay.
Supervisor Richter stated that the Auditor had set the rules that the
County would not pay for the spouces, In Supervisor Richter's opinion,. the County
Auditor wrote a statement that is false. Chairman Winston requested the Auditor
to respond to these statementso
Page 340,
March 21, 1978
Mr. Lawrence read the note that accompanied the claim to Mr. Mickelson.
He states he was told that the charge would be the same for a double room as the
rate for a single room, He explained why he had written the note.. The claim for
lodging at Morro Bay shows the deduction for his wife.
Supervisor €Rchter made the point that the hotel administration had
stated that at all times they had single rooms and they did not say that they would
charge the same for a double room as for a single room. The receipt indicates that
he sent in his check for a double room. Mr. Lawrence stated that it was not. his
intention to defraud the County. This is a small amount of money involved.
Supervisor Richter felt that the claim should be disallowed,
It was moved by Supervisor Richter, seconded by Supervisor Madigan .

disallowed and that the records be referred to the Grand Jury relating to this
claim for lodging..

RE MEMOS BY THE AUDITOR DATED MARCH 8, 1978
Supervisor .Madigan stated he would like to go back to the motion made
in the momingsession of this meeting regarding the resolution that set out the Board's
position regarding the. memos by the Auditor. Chairman Winston stated he had not
voted for the motion as the memo from County Counsel states that he did not question
the Auditor's right to appoint a deputy and he felt that the passage of the resolution
should be the last resort open to the Board. In Chairman Richter's opinion, the memo
dated March 20, 1978 by the Auditor mitigated the paragraphs in the March 8, 1978
memo and it satisfied Chairman Winston. He felt that the passage of the resolution
was not needed.
Mro Blackstock explained the liability of the County for acts of the
County Auditor, If the Board has gone on record as opposing the Auditor's actions,
then they would not be held liable for any future action followed through by
threats. The resolution would remove the County's liability in the future.
Mr. Lawrence stated that as long as Mr, Johanson does not violate
his trust of him, he will re-establish Mr, Johanson `s status after the election.
Supervisor.Richter said he wanted to go on record as stating that the
three paragraphs in the memo from Mr. Lawrence are incombdtible to him~an~3~~nianted
to go on record as saying that the Board will not tolerate this type action.
Chairman Winston stated that County Counsel says that if the Board
does not pass this resolution, they would be subjecting the county to a law suit.
The County can be held liable.
Mr. Lawrence admitted that he used poor judgment in the writing of those
three paragraphs. He had no intention of infringing on Mr, Johanson's rights,
Supervisor Richter stated that this statement is not acceptable to him. Chairman
Winston asked Mr. !l~wrence if he would feel fit to correct the wording and
Mr. Lawrence said he-feels it would be wrong to correct the wording.
Supervisor l~ichter said he was not concemed about the verbage; he is concemed
about the intent and the thrust of the intent of the memo.
