Clif Mickelson, administrative officer, stated they had no choice
but to initiate the Family Conciliation Court. Mr. Crisan, welfare director,
last year began a pilot program and has it accomplished, but because of recent
legislation they must change the program.
Leo Battle, deputy county counsel, set out the background on the
Court. The court would be under the supervision of Superior Court. The
county would back up the court over and above what is received from the
income of the Court. The pilot program of Mr. Crisan has been a great
success in keeping these problems from tying up the Superior Court calendar.
It is up to--the Board to decide whether they will take on that added burden.
The consideration of the Family Conciliation Court was continued
to September 23, 1980.

DISCUSSION OF EMERGENCY MEDICAL CARE COUNCIL DUES
Discussion of the Emergency Medical Care Council dues in the
amount of $24,000 was held at this time.
Chairman Lemke read letters from Kenneth Rose and William J.
Casey from Chico L~Femorial Hospital in support of the Emergency M~dicai
Care Council.
Chairman Lemke stated that the county is to receive $150,000
north of radio equipment. He had been generally of the oginion that the
county has gotten nothing and now that the council is waking up to the
fact that the county is pulling out of the council they are going to give
the county some equipment.
Supervisor Winston stated that the county has had transistors
on the tog of mountains for years. The ambulances have had radios from
the council for years.
Clif Nickelson, administrative officer, stated that all the
cost of the equipment probably does not add up to what the county has
paid in dues. The state and federal governments added funds to the council.
The council is saying this is the first year the county will get their
fair share.
DATA.PROCESSING BUDGET;"'PAGE 270
° Mr. Nickelson asked that the Board add $100,000 to the Data
Processing budget for the renegotiation of the contract. The county is
-going into a new configuration of trying to go on-line. There are not
enough manhours available zo allow the county to implement the major
effort needed to go on-line. If the Board wants to stay like the county
is, it will not be necessary. The Board has already approved the upgrade
of the equipment.
DISCUSSION OF APPROPRIATION FOR CONTINGENCIES
Discussion of the appropriation for contingencies held at this
time. Supervisor Winston stated that in the memo from the Auditor it
show the appropriation for contingencies as $3,192,000 in the General
Fund.
Jim Johansen, auditor, stated that basically there is $2,250,000
reserve that the Board approved plus the $500,000 for the Sheriff's Office
and the $442,000 for the jail reserve.
DISCUSSION FIRE DEPARTMENT BUDGET, PAGE 159
William Teie, fire warden, stated that if the Board has any
extra money he would like to have $18,000 for the Richvale Volunteer
Fire Department. The Board has made the allocation for priority ~h.
He asked that the Board consider the allocation for priority #3 which
is the building at the Richvale Volunteer Fire Department. They have
been able to purchase afire engine for Stirling City Volunteer Fire
Department for $1. The volunteers will do as much of the work as possible.
DISCUSSION COUNTY COUNSEL'S BUDGET PAGE 25
Ban Blackstock, county counsel, asked that the Board transfer
the $6,000 from professional services in his budget to equipment rents
Page 228.

80- and leases in oxder to lease a word processor for one year. He felt there
v would be a number of othex departments that would be able to utilize the
machine. By doing this, it will throw his budget into the red and
he will be coming to the Board for a transfer from the reserve.
Supervisor Winston stated that he has had occasion to use the
services of public stenographers. He has been in a hurry and things have
had to be redone. These have been done on a word processor. He felt the
word processor was particularly adaptable for attorneys offices. By the
use of this equipment and the increasing load on the County Counsel's
Office, he would see very easily where they could save at least one
position with the word processor. He felt it would create tremendous
efficiency. He urged that the Board consider the transfer at this time.
DISCUSSION OF COURT WORK REFERRAL PROGRAM BUDGET UNTT 247
Discussion of the Court Work Referral Program held at this time.
Mr. .7ohansen stated that $14,303 was necessary for this program.
SHERIFF'S BUDGET, PAGES 104 TO 118
Discussion of the Sheriff's budget held at this time. Supervisor
Winston stated that the Board had a letter from Mr. Hecker. Mr. Hecker
hasvisited with Supervisor Winston about what happened. Supervisor
Winston could not help but wonder if the Sheriff can afford to send three
units to a home where someone complained about a dog on the backporch.
He wondered whether throwing money at the Sheriff's Office is the answer.
It is frightening to him when he considered the amount of money budgeted
by Board action last week for the Sheriff's Office. As far as he was
concerned until a drastic change in the administration and a massive
injection of common sense happens in the Sheriff's Department that the
Board sbni~ld noh ba authoxizing the sums of money they are. He did not
bring any of the newspaper clippings where the Sheriff promised no
reduction in the Sheriff's Department in the Paradise area even though
there was a reduction of 30,000 people from their jurisdiction. He
submitted that removing 30,000 people in quite a tremendous area including
the urban area from the responsibility to maintain the same number of
deputies in that particular part of this county does not make very good
sense. He knew that all over the county people were calling for deputies.
The main interest is from people in the hills asking for resident deputies.
Mr. Stenberg is saying yes they can hire resident deputies and the
Sheriff is saying he will patrol those areas with deputies out of Oroville.
Supervisor Winston stated there were one or two people on the
committee ti*ho~~:have told him that they want the resident deputies back.
The Sheriff made a presentation and this was the answer to his request.
He felt the Board had gone overboard on these particular allocations.
He expressed a deep concern that the' matter wi7.1 non stop here. He knew
that Chairman Lemke had expressed a concern that if the Board did not
give something to the Sheriff's Department the initiative would pass
in November. If the people of Butte County vote for the Sheriff's
initiative in November, God help them. He did not thinle that any
action the Board might make would have a great deal of influence on
the correct population of the law enforcement people. In the countries
where hands are cut off, there is still crime. He did not think that
throwing bodies at the problem was the answer. He did not`"think that
by adopting a budget providing that percentage of money to the Sheriff's
Department was in the best interests of the people of the County of Butte.
DISCUSSION OF THE BUDGET AS PRESENTED AND AMENDPD
Supervisor Winston questioned tfie Auditor as to whether he
felt the budget was a good budget.
Page 224.
September lb, 1980
September 16, 1980
g0_ Mr. Johansen expressed serious concern about the budget. No
~ one can predict what the economy will do. From that standpoint he
would be conservative and would like to retain the fiscal flexibility
for next fiscal year. If the economy responds, if the sales tax exceeds
the anticipated amount perhaps the county will not be in a bad way next
year.
Supervisor Winston stated the Soard had received a memo from
the Administrative Office on the North Valley Plaza and the effect of
annexation would have a catastrophe effect on the sales tax. The likelihood
of the annexation is pretty fair.
Supervisor Dolan stated that the City of Chico has been holding
the sewer capacity for the mall until they make a decision on annexation.
The people in the area are putting pressure on the city to release the
capacity and the city is putting pressure on the mall.
Mr. Nickelson stated that if the mall did not go to the city
and an assessment district were formed, there would be a heavy amount
of fees charged. If the city annexed just the mall it could happen in
45 days and be ratified by the Secretary of State on January 1. The
big issue 3s the rest of the built up area. There would be the problem
in how would the county fund the fire department if the sales tax were
reduced.
Supervisor Dolan stated this was a argument for keeping the
reserve with the original recommendation from the Auditor of $3.5 million.
Dan Blackstock, county counsel, stated the Board had a legal
problem if they thought the mall was going to be annexed into the city.
There is a problem with regard to the funding for the fire department.
The county has not taxed for fire services. There is a provision in the.
Government Code that the county cannot use funds except for taxes
collected from the unincorporated area to pay for the fire department.
That is why the county is using the sales tax for funding the department.
The question is what tax funds are going to be used to substitute in the
event the mall is annexed.
Mr. Johansen stated they were faced with that this year to a
degree. They were able to use the franchise taxes this year. The
revenues available for funding the department are relatively few. They
could face a problem.
DISCUSSION SHERIFF'S BUDGET,_PAGES_ 104 TO 118,.
Chadrman Lemke did not see any reason to change the figures
as presented by the Auditor at this time. As far as the Sheriff is concerned
to consider the fact that they are ._nnfi reducing officers from the Paradise
Substation is that now that Paradise is incorporated they are finally up
to staff. Prior to the incorporation they operated on 12 men. It takes
five men per shift. The area patrm3led was from Butte College to Inskip.
Now that Paradise is incorporated two men can well traverse the geography
of the upper ridge:. and below the upper- ridge and they have finally
realized there is sufficient staff for the area. The estimate for the
initiative is going to be about $2 million to implement. He would not
worry about the reserve for contingencies because it would be totally
used for the initiative. He has received calls regarding the action
that was taken by the Board. There is still some doubt but the people
are satisif~d with what is taking place. The Board has tied into this
action a study of the Sheriff's Department and that is what is going to
provide whether there are the management skills or the sufficient personnel
to carry out the job of law enforcement in Butte County.

Supervisor Wheeler felt it was important to recogna.ze the
:act that the funds impounded for the upgrade of the Sheriff's Department
ras placed into the reserve so that the expenditures need to came before
:he Board and it takes four votes to release the funds.
Supervisor Winston stated Sheriff Gillick has been before the
ioard making the same comments about every other part of the county as
;hairman Lemke had stated about Paradise. As a city taxpayer he refused
and would continue to refuse to pay fox his urban protection and urban
?olice protectioni~i the county. If someone does not bring suit, he as
a private citizen will.
Chairman Lemke stated he was a city taxpayer paying taxes for
the city as well as the Sheriff's Department. He reminded the Board
that the $1.5 million that could possibly be lost from the North Valley
Plaza represents a considerable amount of money paid by the City of
Paradise and the unincorporated area. He doutted whether there could be
equity for everyone. He submitted a letter from Joseph B. Tokarski
relative to a cabin 3n Butte Meadows asking if the Butte County taxpayers
were entitled to regular patrol and some kind of protection. Sheriff
Gillick had the figures when he made the presentation and he had the
experts advising what they felt were necessary to enforce the law.
He assumed that everyone on the committee were speaking for the citizens.
The committee was not able to disprove any of the figures.
Chairman Lemke stated that there were four or five meetings
of the committee on this matter. The initial meeting was spent with
the Auditor talking to the committee about ixow the funding came down
and slat problems the Board was faced with during the budget hearings.
The Auditor answered questions for people who had other interests as
well as police protection. If the Board neglects to heed a portion of
what the Sheriff has recommended, the Board is giving away the initiative
election and are looking at $2 million instead of $500,000 presently
being requested.
Mr. Nickelson stated the. Board had allocated money for
additional jailers and some construction in the new jail in addition
to the $500,000 for the Sheriff's Department. For this year, without
12 months, the cost is around $200,000.
Supervisor Dolan felt the point was that it is just not the
$1/2 million added to the Sheriff's Department, it was at least $650,000
counting the jail. It is a lot of money.
Mr. Johansen stated the $500,000 figure is somewhat misleading.
The cost for next fiscal year might be twice that amount.
Supervisor Dolan did not vote for the budget just because
she wanted to go on vacation, It still remains her..^..concern. The Board
needs the results of the study and thorough information before anyone
is added. She did not feel that just by adding $500,000 to the Sheriff's
budget would answer the initiative. She felt the proper thing was asking
for the study.
DATA PROCESSING BUDGET, PAGE 270
Supervisor Wheeler felt that $100,000 was a very small amount
of money for data processing considering the cost increase in the worload
in the three major work areas, Auditor, Assessor and Treasurer-Tax
Collector.

Mr. Johansen stated he had made a rough.' comparison for 1977.
The average increase in the three major users was about 50 percent
over the three previous years. From 1978 to 1980-81 the increase was
about 38 percent. They would be looking at another $L00,000 roughly.
Mr. Nickelson set out what the $100,000 would be used for. They
would be renogi$ting a new contract and this would help get the transition
done. The cost of data processing would not be reduced after a year.
-Inflation would be a factor. There will be additions to data processing
such as jury utilitization and CJIS programs. They are paying for Bart
of the startup on these programs. Nothing being done in government
will get any cheaper next year. There is an increase in the population
and an increase in the Consumer Price Index. The Systems 80 will cost
less in rental payments than the county is paying at the present time.

Dave Jenkins, city administrator, representing the Oroville
City Counetl, advised the Board that the city in cooperation with departments
in the county are proceeding with the Oroville urban General Plan.
The Oroville City limits contain 11 square miles and the urban area
contains 40 square miles with a population of 25,000 to 30,000 in the
urban area. In addition to the various elements, they are adding the
Economic Development Element and the Leisure Services Element. They are
addressing serious problems in the urban area. The unemployment rate
at times is seven percent higher than the county rate, or about 18 percent.
The reason for the unemployement is the seasonal work in the area.
They would~.ike to support industr}r and the need for fulltime year-round
employment for people in the area.
The City Council and Planning Commission are setting up hearings
throughoutithe city and the urban area. In the spirit of cooperation they
need input from the Board and the county Planning Commission. There will
be a series of hearings in the Thermalito, and south side areas. He
extended an invitation to the Board and the county Planning Commission
to attend the meetings and take part in the process. They were able
to develop a master plan for the industrial area because of money from
the county. He thanked the county for their cooperation.
