3.09 Budget Adjustment -The Butte County Elections Division solicited for a new forklift (capital asset) during
FY 2014-15. After the competitive solicitation, a contract was awarded to Toyota Material Handling of
Northern California with a stipulation that delivery was required prior to June 30, 2015. Due to the
dockworkers strike in Long Beach, California,the parts for the new forklift were not available for delivery
to the vendor in time to meet the June 30, 2015 deadline, and delivery has been renegotiated with an
anticipated delivery of mid-August. In addition, chairs ordered from Office Depot had an anticipated
delivery date prior to June 30, and on June 22, 2015, Office Depot informed the County the chairs will
not be delivered until mid-July. The funds for both purchases were projected to be spent in FY 2014-15
and not included in calculations for available fund balance. Since the items were not received prior to
June 30th, the funding was not expended in FY 2014-15 and rolled into available fund balance, and

the items upon receipt, which requires additional appropriation of $50,775 in FY 2015-16 - action

currently being utilized for precinct officer training. In order for services to continue without
interruption, the County Clerk-Recorder/Registrar of Voters requests the approval of an amendment to
the contract with S.O.E. Software, Inc. that revises the completion date to June 30, 2020 and increases
the not-to-exceed price by $32,445 for a total revised contract price of $51,852 over eight years. The

these services at the Court. The County contracts with Legal Services of Northern California to operate

Legal Services of Northern California. The proposed amendment would extend the original three-year
term to include services for FY's 2015-16, 2016-17 and 2017-18. Under the proposed amendment, the
annual price would remain at $50,000 per FY and the maximum financial obligation would increase from

3.19 Resolution and Agreements for the Paradise Library / Lodge Parking Lot Transition Project - The Butte
County Library in Paradise lacks sufficient parking, typically during the day hours. In addition, the
adjacent Table Mountain Mason Lodge also lacks sufficient parking, but typically in the evening hours.
The Lodge has offered to allow Library patrons to park in the Lodge parking lot and will allow
construction of a drive between the Library and the Lodge. Staff recommends that with the construction
of a drive, the Lodge patrons could utilize the Library parking when the Library is not active. To make the
Paradise Library/ Lodge Parking Lot Transaction Project a reality,the Paradise Friends of the Library have
offered to reimburse the County up to $40,000 to construct a drive between the two properties. To
facilitate the project, staff requests that the Board adopt a resolution recognizing the contribution of the
Paradise Friends of the Library and execute both the Memorandum of Understanding with the Friends of
the Library and the site license agreement with the Lodge. This project is included in the FY 2015-16
budget and no additional appropriation is required to complete this project - action requested - 1)

3.20 Budget Adjustment - County Service Area 34 - Gridley Swimming Pool -The County Service Area 34 (CSA
34)was established between 4,431 parcels in the greater Gridley area in 1968 for the purpose of funding
the operation, maintenance and repair of a swimming pool constructed on the Butte County
Fairgrounds. Several years ago, the concrete pool structure began to fail and a fiberglass liner was
installed to enable the community to continue using the pool. Subsequently, the fiberglass liner began
to fail and in 2011, after a limited response to a request for proposals issued by the County,the liner was
patched. Now,the liner patches are failing and at some point the pool will need to be closed, repaired or
replaced. General Services has completed a request for proposals from firms qualified to analyze the
pool condition and determine the feasibility of repairing the existing pool. Of the proposals, The KPA
Group was determined to be most qualified and proposed a price of $24,000 to provide the services
outlined in the request for proposals. Staff is requesting that the Board approve a $30,000 budget
adjustment from the available fund balance of approximately $252,143. This will allow General Services
to negotiate and execute a contract consistent with the authority established in the current purchasing
policy and will also provide funding for staff time and supplies needed to work with the community to
evaluate the findings of the final report - action requested - APPROVE THE BUDGET ADJUSTMENT (4/5
vote required). (General Services)
3.21 Contract Amendment with Holdredge and Kull - Subsequent to solicitation, the Board executed an
agreement with Holdrege and Kull Consulting Engineers (H&K) on July 30, 2014, for construction quality
assurance testing and special inspection services for the Butte County Hall of Records. So that H&K could
be involved early on in the project,the not-to-exceed price of$71,033 on the original contract was based
on construction drawings that were not final. Once final construction drawings were completed, the
contract was amended to increase the not-to-exceed price by $1,687 to provide for inspections that
became necessary. Now, during construction, unforeseen soil conditions and other minor plan changes
of approximately 3% necessitate further inspection services from H&K. Staff recommends amending the
contract to extend the planned termination date to September 30, 2015, and to increase the not-to-
exceed price by $9,234.25, bringing the total not-to-exceed price to $81,954.25. Funding is included in
the budget for this project and no additional appropriation is necessary - action requested - APPROVE

Project - On June 23, 2015, an amendment to Chapter 51 of the Butte County Code was proposed
extending the sunset date of the Contracts / Procurement Sunset Pilot Project Ordinance to August 31,
2016. The extension provides for the completion of the training program and to provide additional time
to finalize the draft policies and procedures for Board consideration. The Board waived the first reading
of the proposed amendment and staff recommends that the Board now adopt the amendment to the
Ordinance - action requested - ADOPT ORDINANCE AND AUTHORIZE THE CHAIR TO SIGN. (General
Services)
3.23 Authorization to Acquire Real Property on Behalf of Behavioral Health for a Crisis Residential Treatment
Center - On February 24, 2015, the Board of Supervisors approved and authorized the General Services
Director to negotiate the acquisition of the portion of APN 006-240-047 that contains 556 Cohasset
Road, in Chico, so that Behavioral Health can open a Crisis Residential Center. Negotiations with Enloe
Medical Center have been successful and have concluded with a final sales price of $403,000. All
necessary due diligence has been successfully completed and staff recommends that the Board adopt a
Resolution authorizing the Director of General Services, to execute all documents necessary to complete
the acquisition. Funding for the acquisition has been provided through a California Health Facilities
Financing Authority (CHFFA) grant and is contained in the Behavioral Health Department's FY 2015-16

3.24 Contract Amendment with Hunters Services, Inc. - In a leveraged procurement effort, General Services
solicited proposals from firms qualified to provide a countywide pest control program and on August 12,
2014, the Board executed a contract with Hunters Services, Inc. The $43,956 contract, with a planned
termination date of August 11, 2017, included the provision to modify services and to utilize on-call
services provided by the vendor. The increased efficiencies and effectiveness of the centralized program
has been very successful and the contract was amended to increase the not-to- exceed price to $48,351
to cover newly added buildings. With the continued success of the program, staff wishes to add
additional buildings and the not-to-exceed price is insufficient to meet the needs of the County for the
balance of the term. General Services recommends approval of an additional amendment increasing the
not-to exceed-price by $9,525 to a new not-to-exceed price of $57,876 to cover the addition of two
buildings and additional on-call services that are anticipated. Funding is contained within the FY 2015-16

3.26 Budget Adjustment - SIP Switches - The Information Systems (IS) Department needs to replace two (2)
SIP switches. The replacement SIP switches provide functionality required by the Unified Communication
(UC) system to replace our aging phone system. Additionally, they provide redundant connections to our
UC infrastructure, granting fault tolerance that is absent from our current phone system. The original
switches were considered capital assets at the time of purchase due to their costs, and were capitalized
with depreciation put in the IS Equipment Replacement Fund to pay for future replacement. The new
switches do not meet the capital asset threshold, requiring the funds to be transferred from the
Equipment Replacement Fund to the IS Department's budget to make the purchase. The Department
requests a transfer of $35,000 to cover the costs of the replacement switches - action requested -
APPROVE BUDGET ADJUSTMENT(4/5 vote required). (Information Systems)

more flexibility related to budget revisions. The term of the new agreement is July 1, 2015 through June

3.31 Budget Adjustment - Disbursement of Road Improvement Contribution Fees - Prior to forming the
County Wide Traffic Impact Mitigation Fee program, the Public Works Department collected fees from
various development projects throughout the County for specific road improvements to mitigate the
developments' traffic impacts, and held those fees in the Road Improvement Contributions account.
Some of the fees have been held in the account since the late 1970's and early 1980's. Upon review by
the Department, it became clear that many of the projects have been completed by the County or other

3.34 Request by the City of Chico for Consent to an Extra-Territorial Property Acquisition for a Storm Drain
Bypass line - The City of Chico recently approached the County concerning the need for the City to
execute an extra-territorial property acquisition outside the City boundary. The acquisition is needed for
the City to acquire right-of-way and public utility easements for the future extension of Notre Dame
Boulevard in South Chico to Highway 99 at South Gate Avenue. The acquisition is part of the planned
development of a new California Highway Patrol (CHP) Office being constructed in the City on the
property. Specific details of the project and the necessary easements are included in the request from
the City's Acting Public Works Director-Engineering. State law (Government Code Section 37351)
PAGE 8
BUTTE COUNTY BOARD OF SUPERVISORS MINUTES- 7/28/2015
provides for such extra-territorial acquisitions by cities, as is necessary or proper for their municipal
services. In this case, because the City/County boundary splits the property being developed for the CHP
Office and the existing streets to be extended are located in the City, it necessitated this request. The
extension of Notre Dame Boulevard will be constructed, owned and maintained by the City and there will
not be any County involvement except to grant the request for the extra-territorial acquisition - action
requested - APPROVE THE CITY OF CHICO'S ACQUISITION OF EXTRA-TERRITORIAL PROPERTY LOCATED

3.39 Approval of Contract with Kearns and West to Complete the Assessment of Potential Groundwater
Sustainability Agencies - In 2014, the State passed the Sustainable Groundwater Management Act
(SGMA), which requires local agencies to develop a plan to manage their groundwater basins on a
sustainable basis, as documented in a Groundwater Sustainability Plan (GSP). Entities that have
jurisdiction over water and/or land-use are eligible to become what is termed a Groundwater
Sustainability Agency(GSA) and will help to prepare the GSP.The County will play a significant role in the
development of the GSP, but there are other entities located within the county that also have
jurisdictional authority over water resources. This project would conduct a series of interviews with the
GSA eligible agencies within the county and other appropriate stakeholders including, but not limited to,
groundwater dependent water users, municipalities, and non-profit organizations to develop a report
which includes all voices on this issue.This report will be used to launch further discussions regarding the
designation of a GSA within the county, as well as the development of the GSP. The Department worked
with General Services to issue an RFQ for this project, and a panel consisting of the Director, Assistant
Director and the Chair of the Butte County Water Commission selected the Kearns and West proposal
out of those submitted and meeting the criteria - action requested - APPROVE AGREEMENT AND

4.04 Resolution of Intention and Adoption of Ordinance to Amend CalPERS Contract - Currently the Butte
County In-Home Supportive Services Public Authority(Authority) and the County have separate contracts
with CalPERS for the provision of pension benefits to retirees. Employees of the Authority are not
considered County employees. Authority employees currently receive similar pay and benefits to County
employees, but the terms and conditions of employment are governed by separate internal documents
and procedures. Administering these different terms and conditions of employment for Authority
employees has not proven to be efficient. To increase efficiency and flexibility, merging Authority
employees into the County workforce is recommended. To do so, the separate CalPERS contracts of the
Authority and County must be merged. An actuarial valuation was requested and provided by CalPERS
detailing the cost of the proposed merger. In order to proceed with merging the contracts, the Board of
Supervisors must first adopt the Resolution of Intention to Approve an Amendment to Contract Between
the Board of Administration, California Public Employees' Retirement System and the County of Butte.
Additionally, the Board must adopt an ordinance authorizing an amendment to that same contract -
