11. Award of Contract to Provide SB 90 Claiming Services - The Tax Relief Act of 1972 (or Senate Bill 90) is
the implementing legislation that allows local governments and agencies to submit claims for
reimbursement to the State for costs related to new programs or service level increases that the State
mandates local governments and agencies provide. Since FY 2000-01, Butte County has utilized the
services of different consultants to complete and submit SB 90 claims on its behalf. In order to ensure
that Butte County and its citizens receive the maximum value from the relationship with the consultant
providing SB 90 claiming services, the County periodically issues a Request for Proposals (RFP) to
consultants interested in providing this service. MGT of America has been providing SB 90 claiming
PAGE 3
BUTTE COUNTY BOARD OF SUPERVISORS MINUTES- 7/30/2013
services for Butte County since October of 2010. On May 15th, 2013, Butte County distributed an RFP to
four firms that provide SB 90 claiming services. Two proposals were received by the County by the
submission deadline. Each member of the proposal review panel agreed that MGT of America provided
a superior proposal and offered the lowest fee. The term of this contract is July 30, 2013 to June 30,
2016. The maximum amount payable in each fiscal year is $17,300 or $51,900 in total over the three
year term (department budget). Payment of all fees is deferred until State reimbursement is received by
the County.The County retains the option to extend the contract for two additional fiscal years with the
same fee structure.
12. Community Facilities Districts and Assessment Districts Local Goals and Policies - In 2011 the Mello-Roos
Community Facilities Act of 1982 was amended by SB 555.This amendment allows Community Facilities
Districts (CFD) to be used to finance energy efficiency, water conservation, and renewable energy
improvements. In order for the County's CFD program to take advantage of these changes in the law, it
must incorporate the changes into the local program goals and policies. These amendments would be
necessary for the County to utilize CFDs for Property Assessed Clean Energy (PACE) programs.
Additionally, earlier this year the County engaged the services of a consultant to review the County's
CFD goals and policies for adherence to current law and best practices. The County's goals and policies
have not been updated since their adoption in 2006, and given the recent changes in the law, a
thorough review was timely. The proposed amendments also incorporate the consultant's
recommended conforming changes, and needed technical, typographical and grammatical corrections.
Board approval is requested for amendments to the Local Goals and Policies which will allow the County
CFD program to be utilized to finance energy efficiency, water conservation and renewable energy
improvements, and to reconcile the local goals and policies with State law.
13. General Liability Investigative Services Contract - Proposed is a renewal contract with Robert Cregan of
Northern Valley Claims and Investigative Services for investigating General Liability claims filed against
the County. Investigations are conducted on an as-requested basis and then billed according to "time

(department budget).

Anderson & Associates, Inc. to facilitate and manage a gap analysis of the County's financial system.
Near the end of the gap analysis, the County requested additional items in the scope of work, which
requires that an additional 37 hours, at$132/hour, be added to the agreement for a new not-to-exceed
amount of$38,676. Due to the time line for the project, the need to continue the analysis during July,
and no Board meeting until the end of July, the Chief Administrative Officer (CAO) signed the
amendment and requests that the Board ratify the CAO's signature at this time. Due to the expanded
scope of the project,the agreement is extended to September 30, 2013. Funds for the amendment are
included in the department's FY 2013-14 budget.

an opportunity to prescribe the scope of work and pricing for the new contract. Therefore, the

the following items: 1) SCS Engineers will design, provide plans and specifications, bid support, oversight
and final construction report for the replacement of a lysimeter (monitoring well for soil pore water
below the landfill but above the groundwater). The current lysimeter has failed and the Regional Water
Quality Control Board has requested the County to replace it. The Public Works Department will be
seeking bids for the construction of the the lysimeter in the near future; and 2) Increase Task 12
(construction oversight for two replacement ground water monitoring wells) for additional costs
incurred during the construction of two replacement groundwater wells. The well installation
contractor had difficulty drilling the wells which resulted in SCS' construction monitor needing to be on-
site an additional 30 hours. Total requested amendment amount is $20,100, increasing the total
contract amount to $373,720 (department budget).
41. Mutual Aid Agreement with City of Oroville -The City of Oroville and the County of Butte have assisted
each other over the years with road maintenance. This has included maintaining roadway striping and

assistance, including sealing and patching. The new agreement will replace two previous agreements -
Striping Services dated November 4, 2008, and Signal Maintenance Services dated April 6, 2010. Since
FY 2009-10, reimbursements to City of Oroville for signal maintenance assistance has averaged
approximately $1,000 per fiscal year. During the same time, reimbursements to County of Butte for
signage and striping averaged approximately$5,000 per fiscal year.
42. St. Vincent DePaul Society - Mattress Recycling - For several years, the Neal Road Recycling and Waste
Facility (Facility) has been successfully diverting mattresses/box springs into the recycling stream. The
increased recycling efforts, estimated at 250 tons annually, provides for a better use of valuable
remaining capacity at the Facility. The Facility has been utilizing the non-profit group, St. Vincent De
Paul Society, to recycle the mattresses and box springs. On July 31, 2012, the Board of Supervisors
PAGE 10
BUTTE COUNTY BOARD OF SUPERVISORS MINUTES- 7/30/2013
approved a one year recycling services agreement with St. Vincent De Paul Society, and in February,the
contract maximum was increased to $75,000 for FY 2012-13. Due to the success of this program, the
Public Works Department wishes to extend the agreement through July 31, 2014 and increase the
contract maximum by$75,000 for a total contract maximum of$150,000 (department budget).
43. Sheriff Inmate Labor Program Renewal - For many years, the Sheriff Inmate Labor Program has been
successfully utilized for brush clearing along roadways and solid waste debris cleanup at the Neal Road
Recycling and Waste Facility. Under this program, Public Works funds one Butte County Correctional
Deputy to supervise a work crew of ten inmates. With the size of the crew, this program has proven to
be cost effective for general brush clearing and debris cleanup. The new three year Memorandum of
Understanding (MOU) has been revised to reflect current reimbursement rates and has been included
in the FY 2013-14 budget.The term of the MOU is July 1, 2013 through June 30, 2016.
44. U.S. Department of Justice - Organized Crime Drug Enforcement Task Force -The Butte County Sheriff's
Office, Butte Interagency Narcotic Task Force (BINTF), applied to the U.S. Department of Justice (DOJ)
for funds from the Organized Crime Drug Enforcement Task Force (OCDETF)for an overtime agreement.
This agreement in the amount of$5,000 was awarded to BINTF.The funds are specifically to be used for
overtime and are limited to cases that have been designated as OCDETF investigation cases. The
agreement term is May 1, 2013 through September 30, 2013. Undersheriff Honea signed the agreement
with DOJ. A portion of the $5,000 was expended in May and June 2013 for a total of $3,476, leaving a
balance of$1,524 to be utilized between from July 1, 2013 through September 30, 2013.
45. Contract for Pathological Services - The Sheriff contracts for back-up pathological services for the
performance of autopsies to assist in Sheriff's Office investigation to determine the cause of death. In
the event the county's primary pathologist Dr. Resk is unavailable, the Sheriff's Office transports bodies
to the Yolo County Morgue in Woodland for a private contractor, Forensic Medical Group (FMG), to
perform the autopsy. FMG is located in Fairfield thus the pathologist commute is minimal when meeting
our service needs in Woodland. The Sheriff's Office pays FMG only when services are requested. The
total contract price is a not-to-exceed amount of $65,000 (department budget) for a contract term of
July 1, 2013 through June 30, 2016.
46. Contracts for Mortuary Services - As Butte County lacks a County morgue facility, the Sheriff's Office
contracts for morgue services from the local county mortuaries. Five mortuaries provide the Sheriff's
Office services of field body retrieval, body storage, body transport and space for autopsies performed
by the county's primary pathologist. The Sheriff's Office previously maintained a five-year contract for
morgue services and recently completed an inclusionary sourcing process offering a proposed contract
for morgue services to each of the following eligible Butte County mortuaries: Brusie Funeral Home,
Newton Bracewell Chico Funeral Homes, Paradise Chapel of the Pines, Ramsey Funeral Home, and Rose
Chapel Mortuary. All mortuaries accepted the five-year contract for services with a term of July 1, 2013
through June 30, 2018.Total maximum contractual obligation over five years is$495,000 or$99,000 per
year. Mortuaries serving the same county geographic areas are on a rotating on-call basis to cause
equal business opportunity and service obligation for all mortuaries.

1. Adoption of Fiscal Year 2013-2014 Butte County In-Home Supportive Services Public Authority
Administrative Budget - On February 12, 2002, the Butte County Board of Supervisors adopted
Ordinance Number 3809 establishing the Butte County In-Home Supportive Services (IHSS) Public
Authority. As a separate governmental entity, the IHSS Public Authority is required to approve its
budget annually. Approval is requested for the Public Authority to adopt the budget for FY 2013-14.
This administrative budget is being introduced in July 2013 rather than June 2013 because it relies on
the revenue sources included as part of the County's FY 2013-14 Recommended Budget which was
approved by the Board of Supervisors on June, 25, 2013. This approach is consistent with the budget
process of previous years.
