3.01 Revenue Agreement with the California Department of Food and Agriculture (CDFA) for the Bee
Safe Program - The Agricultural Commissioner's Office recommends a cooperative agreement
between the County and CDFA to provide revenue for the Bee Safe Program. The objectives of
the program are to improve apiary theft prevention, decrease apiary pest pressure, decrease
apiary stress due to pesticide exposure, and increase apiary foraging opportunities. The term of
the revenue agreement is July 1, 2019 through June 30, 2020, not -to -exceed $47,796 — action

3.02 Budget Adjustment and Authorization to Finalize a Previously Approved Capital Asset Purchase
(Imprivata Software) - In fiscal year (FY) 2015-16, the Department of Behavioral Health purchased
Imprivata Software, an essential two -factor authentication computer sign -on software system.
The Imprivata Software provides an added layer of security for the Department with functions
including secure printing and enhanced authentication for computer access. The added
functionality further protects access to client records and adds efficiency to Department staff in
managing sign -on to multiple applications. The capital asset purchase was approved for the total
cost of $97,839. The total cost included a $20,000 one-time implementation fee, to be paid upon
completion of the project. Due to unforeseen delays in the implementation, the project was not
completed until October 2018. Shortly after the completion of the project, the Department's
focus turned to those impacted by the Camp Fire, and the implementation fee was not processed
at that time. The Department recommends the Board of Supervisors authorize finalization of
the capital asset purchase and authorize a budget transfer to the capital asset account to fund
the final payment in the amount of $20,000 — action requested - 1) APPROVE BUDGET
ADJUSTMENT; 2) APPROVE CAPITAL ASSET PURCHASE. (Behavioral Health)

3.08 Recognize Revenue Associated with the Settlement between Butte County and Department of
Water Resources (DWR) Settlement related to the Oroville Dam Spillway Incident - Butte County
and DWR reached an agreement on the lawsuit filed by Butte County for roadway damages and
unreimbursed costs resulting from the Oroville Dam Spillway Incident in February 2017. The
County has received $12 million from DWR in this settlement. During the Spillway Incident and
the reconstruction work that followed, county roads were significantly damaged and the
estimated repairs exceed $14 million. Additionally, during the event the County incurred
$963,943 in unreimbursed costs related to emergency management and staffing costs during the
evacuation when County offices were closed and/or evacuated employees were unable to work.
Staff recommends that the Board of Supervisors direct staff to utilize $963,943 to reimburse
various County funds with the remaining balance of $11,036,057 transferred to the Road Fund
to support the County's road infrastructure. Specifically the $963,943 would be allocated as
follows: $364,857 to the General Fund; $202,376 to the Social Services Fund; $37,091 to the
Public Health Fund; $41,523 to the Behavioral Health Fund; $50,835 to the Child Support Fund;
$266,559 to the Road Fund; and $702 to the IHSS Public Authority Fund. As these are funds
reimbursing the County for costs already incurred, staff does not recommend appropriating the
funds for other uses. The $11 million for county roads will be appropriated as projects move
forward — action requested - DIRECT STAFF TO RECOGNIZE DWR SETTLEMENT REVENUE AS
DETAILED IN THE STAFF REPORT. (County Administration)
3.09 Resolution Establishing the Deadline for Completion of Work in the Alternative Fire Debris
Removal Program - Butte County Code Chapter 53, Article II, requires all fire debris within the
Camp Fire burn area to be removed through either the State's Government Program or the
County's Alternative Program. Chapter 53, section 53-16 (C), of the Butte County Code allows
the Board of Supervisors to set deadlines for the completion of work in the Alternative Program.
The Government Program is nearing completion, and the County has begun abatement of
properties that did not enter either the Government or Alternative Program. Additionally, the
Town of Paradise staff requested the Board of Supervisors establish a deadline for completion of
work in the Alternative Program. Due to on-going risks to the public of remaining fire debris, and
the State's original estimate was that all Government debris removal would be completed by
February 29, 2020, the Chief Administrative Officer recommends that the Board of Supervisors
adopt a resolution setting a corresponding deadline of February 29, 2020 for the Alternative
Program work to be complete — action requested - ADOPT RESOLUTION AND AUTHORIZE THE
CHAIR TO SIGN. (County Administration)

Area - The Butte County Address Coordinator has received a petition to change the name of
Merkley Court, a private road located on the south side of Palermo Road east of Lone Tree Road
and west of Falcon Drive, to Yoon Kouei Court. The petition contains the existing road name, five
proposed names and the signatures of all of the property owners whose properties are serviced

3.12 Resolution Authorizing the County to Participate in the No Place Like Home (NPLH) Program and
to Apply for Additional NPLH Funding - In September 2019, the State Department of Housing and
Community Development released its Notice of Funding Availability for the second round of
NPLH competitive funds. These funds can be used to develop permanent supportive housing for
individuals with serious mental illness who are experiencing either homelessness, chronic

Community Housing Improvement Program, Inc. (CHIP), a private, non-profit corporation with
46 years of affordable housing development experience, is proposing to develop Creekside Place,
a 101 -unit, mixed use, multi -family project. One hundred units will serve extremely low and low-
income seniors, 62 years and older, and 15 of the 100 units will assist NPLH seniors. The City of
Chico owns the 4.92 acres site, located on Notre Dame Boulevard near Humboldt Road and will
provide a long-term lease to CHIP for the affordable housing development. The City will also be
providing project financing. CHIP, the development sponsor, will be the developer, owner, and
provide property management for the project. The Department will allocate project financing
and provide supportive services for the 15 NPLH units. It is anticipated that the Department will
apply for a total of $6,058,110 in grant funds which includes the $1,659,786 noncompetitive
funds — action requested - ADOPT RESOLUTION AND AUTHORIZE THE CHAIR TO SIGN.

BUTTE COUNTY BOARD OF SUPERVISORS AGENDA - NOVEMBER 19, 2019
3.14 Resolution to Amend the Salary Ordinance -The Department of Human Resources recommends
the Board of Supervisors adopt a resolution amending the Salary Ordinance for the following
departments:
COUNTY ADMINISTRATION: Add 1 flexibly staffed Management Analyst position through the
Principal level in the Community and Economic Development unit. The Department recommends
the addition of this position to provide time for a new employee to be trained by the incumbent
and to provide for a higher-level position to meet current needs. The Department will request to
delete the existing Management Analyst position held by the incumbent once it becomes vacant.
Total allocations to temporarily increase by one. The additional cost for the position will be
accommodated in the Department's Fiscal Year 2019-20 budget. There is no impact on the
General Fund Budget.
DEVELOPMENT SERVICES: Add 1 term Building Plans Examiner position (term to end December
31, 2022) and add 1 flexibly staffed Legal Office Specialist position. Addition of a new term
position is required to process the additional volume of fire re -build construction. The Legal
Office Specialist is needed for many of the due process tasks in the Code Enforcement Division.
Without the addition of these allocations, contract labor would be required with a significant
increase in inspection turnaround time for the public. Following a departmental promotional
recruitment for the Legal Office Specialist position the resulting vacancy will be deleted at future
Board Meeting. Total allocations to temporarily increase by two. The department has
appropriations in the Fiscal Year 2019-20 budget for the positions. There is no impact on the
General Fund Budget.
HUMAN RESOURCES: Amend Section 28M of the Salary Ordinance No. 4149 of the County of
Butte entitled "Skilled Trades Unit" by adding Class Code 4412 "Arborist" Range 37. The
applicable employee group has agreed to these changes.
PUBLIC HEALTH: Add 2 Division Director, Public Health positions, and delete 1 Assistant Director,
Public Health position. After review of the duties and tasks required to be completed, these
changes were determined to better suit the needs of the Department. Total allocations to
increase by one. The Department has appropriations in the Fiscal Year 2019-20 budget for the
increased cost of this change. There is no impact on the General Fund Budget.
On August 13, 2019, the Board of Supervisors approved the addition of two new term allocations
to the Department of Public Health. The classifications were inadvertently added to the Salary
Ordinance as flexibly staffed Administrative Analyst Sunset positions (term to end August 1,
2021) instead of Public Health Education Specialists. The Department recommends correcting
this error by adding two flexibly staffed Public Health Education Specialist Sunset positions (term
to end August 1, 2021) and deleting two vacant flexibly staffed Administrative Analyst Sunset
positions (term to end August 1, 2021).
Page 5
BUTTE COUNTY BOARD OF SUPERVISORS AGENDA - NOVEMBER 19, 2019
PUBLIC WORKS: Add 0.75 FTE flexibly staffed Permit Technician position, add 1 flexibly staffed
Financial Technician position, add 1 Arborist position, add 1 Public Works Assistant Director
position, flexibly staff 1 existing Civil Engineer position up to the Senior level, and delete 1 Deputy
Director, Public Works position. These changes will address operational and supervisory needs
and will allow the Department to better address current workloads. Total allocations to increase
by 2.75. There is no impact to the General Fund Budget in Fiscal Year 2019-20 because the
department has salary savings from vacant positions. Adding these positions will add
approximately $100,000 in General Fund costs and $175,000 in Road Fund costs annually in
future year budgets.
Action requested - ADOPT RESOLUTION AND AUTHORIZE THE CHAIR TO SIGN. (Human
Resources)
3.15 Resolution Authorizing the Human Resources Director to Sign Benefit Related Documents for the

medical, dental, vision, life insurance, long term disability, flexible/dependent spending
accounts, and an employee assistance program. Various plan related documents must be
reviewed and signed prior to the start of each plan year. The Department of Human Resources

3.16 Resolution Authorizing the County Librarian to Adjust the Hours of Operation for the Butte
County Library - Paradise Branch - The Paradise Branch of the Butte County Library was closed
from November 8, 2018 to July 31, 2019, due to the Camp Fire. Since its reopening on August 1,
2019, an average of 100 patrons have visited the Paradise Branch Library each day it has been
open to the public. As the Paradise Ridge area continues to recover, additional adjustments to
the library's hours may be required to better meet the needs of the residents. Currently, the
Paradise Branch Library is open for three days a week, for a total of 15 hours. Library staff
monitor patron usage weekly and believe that adjustment of hours will be necessary in the next
year of operation. The Library recommends adopting a resolution authorizing the County
Librarian to adjust operating hours at the Paradise Branch Library until July 1, 2020 — action
requested -ADOPT RESOLUTION AND AUTHORIZE THE CHAIR TO SIGN. (Library)
3.17 California Children's Services (CCS) and Child Health and Disability Prevention (CHDP) Annual Plan
for FY 2019-20 - Each year, the Department of Public Health is required to prepare a Children's
Medical Services (CMS) Plan for the CCS and CHDP programs. The goal of CMS is to assure the
health of California children through access to services for all children, in partnership with
families and communities, in an environment committed to excellence. The plan summarizes
program activities within CCS and CHDP program for the year. The CCS program provides
specialized medical care and medical case management to children with medically eligible
conditions who meet the program criteria. Public school-based medical therapy units provide
physical and occupational therapy under physicians' orders. The CHDP program focuses on
complete health assessments for the early detection and prevention of disease and disabilities
in children and youth. In addition, CHDP focuses on medical provider resource development,
informing about CHDP services to eligible families, and health education activities during
community outreach events to help link families to Medi -Cal services for their children. CHDP
also has a component called Health Care Program for Children in Foster Care in which Public
Health Nurses identify and address the health care needs of children in protective services
custody — action requested - APPROVE CCS/CHDP ANNUAL PLAN SUBMISSION AND AUTHORIZE
THE CHAIR TO SIGN. (Public Health)
3.18 Budget Adjustment for County Service Area (CSA) 158 - Ishi Valley Estates and Vineyard Grove
Estates - The Department of Public Works manages various services for CSA 158 - Ishi Valley
Estates and Vineyard Grove Estates, including drainage, street lighting and fire protection. The
CSA is located in north Chico, off Garner Lane and has a total of 48 lots within its boundaries.
Fire protection is provided to the lots by wo pumps located at APN 047-750-062 (4239 Tuliyani
Drive). This system provides pressurized water to a fire suppression system that includes six fire
hydrants. During recent testing, the well showed evidence of failure (production of sand and
reduced fire flow volumes). The Department is prepared to hire a contractor to bring in a crane,
remove the well pump, and perform a video inspection of the well casing and the pump
equipment. The inspection is necessary to determine what repairs need to be made in order to
bring the fire suppression system up to proper working order. Once the inspection is complete,
the Department will solicit and hire a contractor to repair the system. The current CSA 158
budget only includes $1,000 for maintenance and repair work. The removal of the pump and
inspection of the fire suppression system is estimated to cost approximately $5,000. The total
cost of the repairs are unknown at this time, but are expected to be at least $15,000 in additional
costs. The Department recommends a budget adjustment for CSA 158 for the expenses
associated with this inspection and the preliminary estimated fire suppression system repair
costs. Fund balance in the amount of $20,000 will be used for the expenses. The remaining fund
balance after this budget adjustment will be $24,163. — action requested - APPROVE BUDGET
ADJUSTMENT. (4/5 VOTE REQUIRED). (Public Works)

3.19 Budget Adjustment for County Service Area (CSA) - 172 Autumn Park Subdivision - The
Department of Public Works manages various services for CSA 172 - Autumn Park Subdivision
including drainage, street lighting, fire protection, and landscape maintenance. The Department
recommends a budget adjustment, increasing appropriations by $16,932 and reimbursements
by $54,532, for storm -related costs incurred in FY 2018-19 and FY 2019-20. The fund balance for
CSA 172 will increase by $37,600 once State and federal reimbursements are received. The
increased appropriations are needed for the following:
1) In March 2019, the Department pumped floodwaters from the retention pond to provide
capacity for pending storms that involved labor and pump rental at a cost of $14,677. The costs
were not paid in FY 2018-19, and must now be budgeted in FY 2019-20; and
2) In July 2019, the Department removed sandbags placed along Keefer Slough during the 2019
Storm Events at a cost of $2,255.
Staff had multiple conversations with community members within the Autumn Park Subdivision,
numerous phone calls with the National Weather Service to clarify the potential flooding risks to
the Autumn Park Subdivision, and significant efforts were made to monitor the level of the
retention pond on a daily basis as storms were lining up. Given the high likelihood of a repeat
neighborhood flooding event, and the potential for significant damage to multiple residential
structures within the Autumn Park Subdivision, the Director of the Department of Public Works
made the decision to rent equipment and perform emergency pumping of the retention pond
on two separate occasions, and install a sandbag berm to help protect the Autumn Park
Subdivision — action requested - APPROVE BUDGET ADJUSTMENT (4/5 VOTE REQUIRED). (Public
Works)
3.20 Contract Amendment with Nichols Consulting Engineers CHTD (NCE) for Professional Services to
Evaluate and Inventory Roadwav Impacts From the CamD Fire Debris Removal - On November
16, 2018, the County executed a contract with NCE for the impact analysis to the roadway system
due to the Camp Fire debris removal efforts. Due to the rapid degradation of the road system, it
was necessary to remobilize and add an additional evaluation of the current roadway status to
document the level of damage prior to the end of debris removal work. The amount of heavy
traffic associated with the recovery effort has been substantial and exceeded normal heavy truck
traffic volume. Extreme loading on the County's roadways has resulted in damage and
significantly reduced lifespan expectancy of the roadway structure. By properly quantifying the
current roadway condition, a complete impact analysis can be completed to incorporate the
condition at the time of the Camp Fire to the current conditions to justify Federal Emergency
Management Agency reimbursement. Once debris hauling and hazard tree removal efforts are
complete, a final survey will be performed as well. The Department recommends amending the
contract with NCE to add an additional field review of 170 miles of roadway. The amendment
increases the maximum payable amount by $48,000, not -to -exceed $268,000. The term of the
contract is November 21, 2018 through November 21, 2023 — action requested - APPROVE
CONTRACT AMENDMENT AND AUTHORIZE THE CHAIR TO SIGN. (Public Works)

3.21 Contract Amendment with Beiac Corporation for Equipment Rental Services for the Neal Road
Recycling and Waste Facility (NRRWF) -To accommodate additional waste disposal and recycling
processing needs associated with Camp Fire debris waste and municipal solid waste, the NRRWF
contracted for the rental of specialized solid waste handling equipment. The Department of
Public Works researched potential vendors that specialized in renting solid waste equipment and
Bejac Corporation was determined to have all the equipment necessary. Bejac Corporation
provides for the rental of excavators, aggregate screens, conveyors, wheel loaders, track loaders,
greenwaste machines, tree grinders, and material handlers. Equipment may be rented on either
daily, weekly, or monthly terms. On March 26, 2019, the Board of Supervisors executed a Blanket
Purchase Agreement with Bejac Corporation to provide specialized solid waste handling
equipment. The NRRWF is presently developing a new on-site program to divert construction
and demolition (C&D) waste from the municipal waste stream. Examples of C&D waste include
dimension lumber, drywall, metal, and other materials commonly found in building construction
and building demolition. Bejac Corporation has the rental equipment necessary to allow NRRWF
staff to extract C&D waste and separate dirt and other fine materials. Diversion of C&D materials
out of the landfill will help the County achieve State waste diversion goals that are established
and enforced by CalRecycle. The Department recommends amending the contract with Bejac
Corporation to increase the maximum amount payable by $250,000, not -to -exceed $500,000.
All other terms remain the same — action requested - APPROVE CONTRACT AMENDMENT AND
AUTHORIZE CHAIR TO SIGN. (Public Works)
3.22 Award Contract to Lowest Responsible Bidder for the Lower Centerville Road Damage Repair

contract, the contractor will be expected to begin work, and continue their work until winter
rains necessitate a winter suspension. The contract allows for 62 working days after issuance of
a Notice to Proceed for the Contractor to complete the work — action requested - 1) APPROVE
THE PLANS AND SPECIFICATIONS; 2) AUTHORIZE CHAIR TO SIGN THE PLANS; 3) AWARD THE

Butte County Code Allowing Short -Term Rentals Subject to Williamson Act Contract; and Allow

5.04 10:45 AM — Timed Item — Presentation from the FEMA Regarding the Option for Sales to
Occupants and Donations to Government Agencies or Voluntary Organizations of FEMA
Manufactured Housing Units or Travel Trailers for the Camp Fire - The Camp Fire burned
unincorporated communities in Butte County and the Town of Paradise in November 2018,
taking the lives of 85 people, leaving nearly 19,000 structures destroyed, and displacing more
than 14,000 families. A Presidential Declaration was signed on November 12, 2018 authorizing
federal assistance for disaster response and recovery. FEMA provides the Individuals and
Households Program , which is comprised of: 1) Housing Assistance, and 2) Other Needs
Assistance. Housing Assistance may be provided as direct housing as it has been for the Camp
Fire. FEMA established four group sites for Manufactured Housing Units (MHUs) or Travel
Trailers (TTs) in Butte County where 394 families are housed. FEMA also leased pads at
commercial RV and Mobile Home Parks in Butte, Glenn, Lake, Sacramento, Shasta, Sutter,
Tehama, and Yuba counties to place FEMA units and house fire survivors. These parks house 51
families of which 19 are housed outside Butte County. A total of 464 families are receiving direct
housing, and 156 of the families owned property before the fire and 308 families rented before
the fire. Federal guidelines allow FEMA to dispose of the MHUs and TTs through sales to
occupants and donations to qualified government agencies or voluntary organizations. Local
governments may ask the State to request FEMA to provide sales and donations for housing
units. This item is a presentation of the program by FEMA — action requested - ACCEPT FOR
INFORMATION. (County Administration)
5.05 11:15 AM — Timed Item — Expiration of Interim Urgency Ordinance Establishing Temporary
Limitations on New Development on Parcels Having Access off of Craig Access Road - Craig Access
Road is a California Department of Water Resources (DWR) owned road that provides access to
approximately 214 Assessor Parcels east of Lake Oroville off of Lumpkin Road. DWR indicates
that their permission to property owners to use Craig Access Road may be revoked. Craig Access
Road is no longer recognized as a non -County maintained access per Board of Supervisors
Resolution 17-212. On December 12, 2017, the Board of Supervisors adopted Ordinance No.
4140 establishing temporary limitations on new development on parcels having access off of
Craig Access Road. The Ordinance was adopted as an interim urgency ordinance for a period of
45 days pursuant to State law to protect public safety, health, and welfare. On January 23, 2018,
the Board adopted Ordinance No. 4141 which extended the temporary limitations on new
development in the affected area for a period of 22 months and 15 days. Ordinance No. 4141
was also adopted as an interim urgency ordinance and will be of no further force or effect on
December 8, 2019. Government Code section 65858(d) requires the Board of Supervisors to
"issue a written report describing the measures taken to alleviate the condition which led to the
adoption of the ordinance." Staff's memorandum serves as that written report—action requested
— ACCEPT THE REPORT OF STAFF ON THE EXPIRATION OF INTERIM URGENCY ORDINANCE NO.
4141 AS THE WRITTEN REPORT REQUIRED BY GOVERNMENT CODE SECTION 65858(D).

5.06 1:00 PM —Timed Item -Introduction and Adoption of an Urgency Ordinance Amending Chapter
53 - "Camp Fire Recovery" Amending Section 53-67 "Rebuilding Warning" and Adding Section
53-68 "Reconstruction of Single -Family Dwellings Damaged or Destroyed by the Camp Fire in the
Butte Creek Canyon" - Pursuant to California Government Code sections 25123(d) and 25131,
County Administration recommends adoption of an urgency ordinance amending Section 53-67
"Rebuilding Warning" and adding Section 53-68 "Reconstruction of single-family dwellings
damaged or destroyed by the Camp Fire in the Butte Creek Canyon (-BCC) Overlay Zone and the
Watershed Protection (-WP) Overlay Zone." The ordinance amends the rebuilding warning
provided to building permit applicants inside the Camp Fire area in Section 53-67, and adds
Section 53-58 to allow site preparation work and the installation of a foundation for
reconstruction of a single-family dwelling damaged or destroyed in the Camp Fire between
November 15 and April 1. At a previous Board of Supervisors meeting, staff indicated that the
County could provide building permit applicants inside the Camp Fire area with a warning related
to hazard trees on their property. As amended, Section 53-57 adds language specific to the
danger of standing fire -damaged and hazard trees on such properties into the warning applicants
currently receive. The addition of Section 53-68 would allow the timely reconstruction of single-
family dwellings damaged or destroyed by the Camp Fire in the -BCC and -WP Overlay Zones.
Currently, Butte County Code sections 24-34.1(D)(8)(e)(a) and 24-46(H)(3) specify that soil
disturbance shall not be conducted during the rainy season (November 15 through April 1) in the
—BCC and —WP Overlay Zones. As added, Section 53-58 allows the Director of Development
Services and the Director of Public Works to authorize the holder of a building permit for
reconstruction of a single-family dwelling to perform site preparation work and install a
foundation for the single-family dwelling between November 15 and April 1, when weather
forecast shows less than a 20% chance of rain during the next ten days and erosion control
measures have been put into place. The urgency ordinance would take effect immediately —
action requested — 1) WAIVE THE FIRST READING OF THE ORDINANCE ENTITLED, AN URGENCY
ORDINANCE OF THE COUNTY OF BUTTE AMENDING SECTION 53-67 AND ADDING SECTION 53-
68 TO CHAPTER 53, ENTITLED "CAMP FIRE RECOVERY," OF THE BUTTE COUNTY CODE"; AND 2)

Agenda Format and Meeting Order:
The agenda is usually organized into the following areas and meetings generally proceed in the following order:
1. Consent Agenda: these are items that are considered routine and are handled by one motion and vote of the
Board. If you wish to discuss any item on the Consent Agenda you can either fill out a speaker card (located in
the back of the board room) and give it to the Clerk of the Board (sitting to the right of the Board) or, when the
Chair asks if there is anything anyone would like to remove from the Consent Agenda, stand and approach the
podium and request the item be removed. The removed items are discussed at the end of the Regular Agenda.
2. Regular Agenda: this is where presentations to the Board and items that require full discussion are heard. Items
removed from the Consent Agenda are discussed under this section.
3. Public Hearing and Timed Items: this is where items that are required by law to be heard as a public hearing are
set. This is the section where appeals before the Board are usually discussed. Hearings may start after the time
listed, but will never start before the time listed.
4. Public Comment: this is the area of the agenda where members of the audience may address the Board on any
matter not listed on the agenda. The Board, by law, cannot take action on any matter not listed on the agenda,
but may respond to statements or questions and provide staff direction.
5. Closed Session: the Board is authorized, by law, to meet in a closed session in certain circumstances. This area
of the agenda identifies those items that will be discussed during the closed session.
Public Participation:
It is the policy of the Board of Supervisors, and a requirement of the California Open Meetings Law, to allow
members of the public the opportunity to comment on all matters before the Board. Public participation is limited
to matters within the subject matter jurisdiction of the Board pursuant to Government Code Section 54954.3.
The Board has adopted policy and procedures to facilitate the meeting process and conduct. A complete listing
