4.04 PG&F Settlement Fund &sl&.1U
4.04. A. Request for PG&E Settlement Funds for Land Management Software, Capital Asset, Resolution to Amend Salary Ordinance, and Budget Adjustments
The County's land management software is at end of life and no longer supported by its platform. Recent wild fire rebuild efforts remain on-going and a comprehensive
and a functional land management software system is critical. Land management software is the instrument for tracking permit applications and permit workflow across
County Departments in a cohesive and efficient manner. To date, only 19% of the 3,238 homes lost in the unincorporated area of the County from the Camp Fire have ��
applied for permits to rebuild. Staff anticipates an increased volume of permits over the next several years to rebuild the estimated 2,600 homes damaged/destroyed by i
the Camp Fire. M April 2021, the County issued a Request for Proposals for compatible land management software as part of the Enterprise Resource Planning {ERP)
project. Three vendors responded. Joint vendors, Accela of San Ramon and SEPTech of New York were chosen as the most qualified and responsive vendors. The Accela
Program Board (APB) was created to provide leadership for the land management software migration and implementation. The APR is comprised of stakeholders from
the Departments of Administration, Development Services, Public Health, Public Works, Assessors Office, Fire, Information Systems, Agriculture, and General Services.
Implementation of a new system and migration of data is a large undertaking that will require dedicated staff time. The APB recommends that the Board I) approve land
management software contracts with Accela and SEPTech and approve third party administrator contract with Open Cities for an online permit portal 2) adopt resolution
to add one full time term Information Technology Manager to oversee the installation of the new software 3) approve the capital purchase 4) commit $1,520,047 of
PG&E Settlement funds for the first year installation and migration, three years of user licenses, software maintenance and online permit portal, and one year term full
Time Infarmatkm Technology Manager. As of June 30, 2022 there was $146,330,117 in available, unprogrammed PG&E Settlement funds, which included interest earned

4.04. B. PG&E Settlement Fund Investment Alternative: Finance Probation Building
The County's Probation Building is comprised of multiple mobile structures combined with site improvements that are failing. The County's Capital Improvement Program
(CIP), Is the spendlrg plan for infrastructure improvements and includes use of long-term financing. The County could seek financing from a private lender, however,
borrowing from the PG&E Settlement Fund would allow the project to realize substantial savings in interest expense and other financing costs. Current estimated savings
of this recommendation totals $14.3 million over the life of the loan. The PG&E Settlement Fund would be repaid over a term of thirty years at an Interest rate equal to fit
the average County Treasury Pool rate for the four quarters immediately preceding each established annual payment date. Financing would include interest only
payments during construction and principal and interest payments beginning after project completion. Total project costs as of the current date are estimated to be
$26.5 million. Financing of $24 million will be needed. As of lune 30, 2022 there was $146,330,117 In available, un -programmed PG&E Settlement funds, which included
interest earned to date of $3,580,702. (County Administration)

3.01 County of Butte GSA -Cooperation Agreement Amendment No. 1 for Allocation of Implementation Costs
The Butte Subbasin is comprised of 11 Groundwater Sustainability Agencies (GSRs), including: Biggs -West Gridley Water District, County of Butte, Butte Water District,
City of Biggs, City of Gridley, Colusa Groundwater Authority, County of Glean, Reclamation District 1004, Reclamation District 2106, Richvate Irrigation District, and
Western Canal Water District. In November of 2019, the GSAs signed a Cooperation Agreement to develop, adopt and implement a single Groundwater Sustainability
Plan (GSP) for the Butte Subbasin as oullined In the Sustainable Groundwater Management Act (SGMA) in 2014. The Butte Subbasin GSA Managers - comprised of
representatives from each GSA - and the Work Plan Subcommittee identified three tasks requiring timely consideration and action within the next six to eight months.
The tasks include: 1) retalning a grant writer to prepare an application for the SGMA grant program; 2) preparation of an Annual Report due April 1, 2023; and 3)
procuring on-call technical assistance. The GSA Managers identified that an equal contribution of 58.000 per Butte Subbasin GSA would be necessary for this Initial year
to complete the identified tasks. In addition, given the County's rale in the Preparation of the GSP and the 2021 Annual Report, the GSA Managers determined the
County of Butte GSA would be the most appropriate agency to serve as the Fund Administrator for at least the first year of implementation. A draft amendment to the
Cooperative Agreement was prepared and circulated to the GSA Managers for review and comment prior to review and comment by their respective legal counsels. Al
the August 25, 2022 Butte Subbasin Advisory Board (BAB) meeting, the BAB agreed to bring to their respective Boards and Councils an amendment to the Cooperation
Agreement for an equal contribution of 58,000 (ram each Butte Subbasin GSA with the County of Butte GSA serving as Fund Administrator. The Department of Water and
Resource Conservation budgeted 530,000 in fiscal year 2022-23 for the County of Butte GSA's contribution (or implementation of the GSP. The Department recommends
the Board of Supervisors approve the amendment to the Cooperative Agreement. (Water and Resource Conservation)
