(Behavioral Health) THIS ITEM WAS REMOVED FROM THE AGENDA WITH NO ACTION TAKEN. 3.21 Resolution Regarding Authorization and Allocation of Penalties Related to Title 8, Chapter 12 of the California Government Code - Title 8, Chapter 12 of the Government Code (commencing with section 76000) allows counties to create several funds with specific purposes, and further allows counties to levy specific penalties on various offenses for the benefit of these funds. The funds include the Courthouse Construction Fund (CCF), the Criminal Justice Facilities Construction Fund (CJFCF), and the Emergency Medical Services Fund (EMSF). The CCF is used to accumulate funds for the acquisition, construction, and maintenance of courthouse buildings and related facilities. The Trial Court Facilities Act of 2002 transferred the responsibility of providing court facilities from the counties to the State, thereby eliminating the need for counties to accumulate courthouse construction funds, except for the repayment of debt obligations related to such facilities already incurred. Once such debt obligations are retired any monies remaining in the CCF must be remitted to the State and certain penalties are to be reduced. Butte County's debt related to courthouse facilities will be fully retired as of July 1, 2014, thus necessitating the following actions: 1) reaffirm the need for the CJFCF; 2) direct allocation of penalties on criminal offenses to the CJFCF and the EMSF; 3) direct the Auditor-Controller to close the BUTTE COUNTY BOARD OF SUPERVISORS MINUTES- 6/24/2014 CCF and remit any balance and amounts that accrue beginning July 1, 2014 to the State; and 4) reduce the amount of penalties added to Parking Offenses, per State requirements.

A key element of the Plan was the creation of the Drought Task Force (DTF). The charge of the Drought Task Force is to monitor hydrologic conditions throughout the water year and report the findings to the Water Commission and the Board of Supervisors biannually, quarterly, or monthly as needed.

(NONE) 4.04 Franchising for Solid Waste Collection Services - As part of the strategic plan developed for the Neal Road Recycling and Waste Facility (NRRWF) and presented to the Board of Supervisors in August of 2012, staff recommended two components for a revenue plan capable of meeting the funding requirements of the NRRWF and related County waste management programs during the planning period of 2012-2020. The revenue plan consisted of a gate fee increase implemented over several years, which the Board has approved, and the capturing of additional waste tons that are generated in the County but exported out of the County. The latter can be accomplished through contractual agreements with waste haulers as part of County franchised service areas. The accompanying staff report provides detailed information about the process to develop proposed franchised service areas, and the development of proposed franchise agreements, collection rate study and rate methodology. Staff worked with the County's three licensed waste haulers (Recology, Waste Management and Northern Recycling and Waste Services) during the process. The haulers have reviewed and commented on the proposed franchised areas, agreements and rate methodology and are in general agreement. County Counsel and County Risk Management reviewed the franchise agreements and provided input. Staff is recommending the Board consider a motion of intent to approve. Revisions to Butte County Code, Chapter 31, will be required and documents finalized prior to the Board taking final action. If directed accordingly, staff will prepare revisions and return to the Board in the Fall of 2014- action requested - 1) ADOPT MOTION OF INTENT TO AWARD THREE (3) EXCLUSIVE FRANCHISES FOR SOLID WASTE COLLECTION SERVICES; AND 2) DIRECT STAFF TO FINALIZE DOCUMENTS, REVISE BUTTE COUNTY CODE, CHAPTER 31 AND RETURN TO THE BOARD AT A FUTURE DATE FOR CONSIDERATION.

This water flows from the West Branch of the Feather River to the Miocene Canal and is ultimately delivered to the CWS treatment plant on the Thermalito Powers Canal. This conveyance system produces turbid and warm water, which is costly to treat into drinking water. CWS also purchases a portion of its water supply from Butte County's Table A allocation from Lake Oroville and blends this water with the PG&E-purchased water to improve water quality before it is treated. Approval of a Negative Declaration would allow the PG&E water to be conveyed through the State Water Project (SWP) facilities located at Lake Oroville. As the SWP contractor, the County is eligible to convey non-project water through Article 55 of their water supply contract with the State Department of Water Resources (DWR). Approval of the Negative Declaration would be the first step to allow up to 3,000 acre feet of water to be conveyed through the SWP facilities on an annual basis through December 31, 2017. The water would be metered into the reservoir at PG&E's Lime Saddle Power Plant and then metered out of the reservoir at the current out-take facilities located at the Thermalito Powers Canal. This action would conserve water currently lost through the Miocene Canal system and also reduce maintenance costs on the canal, which are passed along to the ratepayers in the Oroville area - action requested - ADOPT RESOLUTION AND AUTHORIZE THE CHAIR TO SIGN.
