1. SUBJECT: DISASTER PREPAREDNESS: KEEPING THOSE WITH

SPECIAL NEEDS SAFE (DISTRICTS: ALL)

OVERVIEW: The San Diego County Office of Emergency Services (OES) has worked diligently on life-saving and rescue efforts for populations with “Access and Functional Needs” to help prepare people who are least likely to escape a disaster and stay safe. Planning for the needs of people with physical, cognitive and emotional disabilities in a before, during and after analysis of a disaster will promote the integration of resources into all aspects of emergency management systems. OES has improved communication of disaster preparedness information for people with Access and Functional Needs, including considerations in their shelter planning while integrating those considerations into all disaster planning and exercises. Communication improvements also include finding ways to disseminate information to non-English speakers. Building on the efforts and progress of the past, there is more that we can do as a community to better prepare this population for a disaster. First responders comprise less than one percent of the total population of San Diego County. When vulnerable populations and their caregivers are equipped and prepared to evacuate, reach a safe place and remain self-sufficient following a disaster, scarce resources can be directed to address the most critical life safety situations. Additionally, it is important for shelter workers to be properly trained to care for individuals with physical and/or cognitive disabilities once the evacuees reach an American Red Cross or County shelter. This includes reviewing the number of Medical Reserve Corps volunteers who will volunteer at disaster shelters to care for individuals with emotional, cognitive and physical disabilities by producing promotional materials to recruit Home Health Aides, Licensed Vocational Nurses and Certified Nursing Assistants. According to the 2010 Federal Census, nine percent of San Diego County’s population considers itself to have a cognitive, ambulatory, hearing, vision or self-care disability. A survey taken by the UCLA Center for Health Policy Research shows 26 percent of San Diego County residents report they are disabled due to a physical, mental or emotional condition. In a 2009 survey, respondents were asked if they were prepared for a major disaster. Among those who answered “not prepared,” 30.3 percent said they were disabled. San Diego County’s Aging and Independence Services In-Home Supportive Services currently has approximately 25,000 clients who need the assistance of a personal care assistant to remain independent. The County’s Office of Emergency Services is committed to building safer communities through a number of programs, including focusing on disaster preparedness for vulnerable populations. FISCAL IMPACT: There is no fiscal impact as a result of this action.


BUSINESS IMPACT STATEMENT: N/A RECOMMENDATION: SUPERVISOR DAVE ROBERTS AND SUPERVISOR RON ROBERTS 1. Direct the Chief Administrative Officer to allow the Office of Emergency

Services to provide the Board with a presentation that includes recommendations on how to increase their ability to provide appropriate equipment and educational opportunities at disaster shelters for individuals with disabilities; that will improve disaster preparedness skills among caregivers; and provide materials/training to increase the ability of disaster shelter workers to care for individuals with disabilities.

2. Direct the Chief Administrative Officer to allow the American Red Cross San

Diego and Imperial Counties Chapter to update the Board on how they have improved operations within their disaster preparedness plan since 2007.

2. SUBJECT: DISTRICT ATTORNEY – RESOLUTIONS FOR INSURANCE FRAUD PROGRAMS (DISTRICTS: ALL)

3. SUBJECT: SHERIFF – REQUEST TO ESTABLISH APPROPRIATIONS FOR THE FISCAL YEAR 2013 DNA BACKLOG REDUCTION PROGRAM AND THE OFF-HIGHWAY MOTOR VEHICLE RECREATION PROGRAM GRANTS (DISTRICTS: ALL)

5. SUBJECT: CALIFORNIA MENTAL HEALTH SERVICES AUTHORITY AMENDMENT TO JOINT EXERCISE OF POWERS AGREEMENT (DISTRICTS: ALL)

OVERVIEW: California’s Proposition 63, the Mental Health Services Act (MHSA), was approved by California voters in November 2004 and became effective January 1, 2005. The MHSA provides funding for expansion of mental health services in California and consists of five program components designated by the State: Community Services and Supports, Prevention and Early Intervention, Workforce Education and Training, Innovations, and Capital Facilities and Technological Needs. Plans for each program component were submitted to the State and implemented following Board approval. Subsequent to the submittal and implementation of program plans, the California Mental Health Service Authority (CalMHSA), a joint powers authority (JPA), was contracted to expedite implementation and administration of Statewide Prevention and Early Intervention (PEI) projects funded under MHSA. On January 25, 2011 (8), the Board authorized the County’s membership in CalMHSA through a Joint Exercise of Powers Agreement (JEPA) in order to jointly develop statewide or regional mental health projects with other counties. Now that the Statewide PEI projects have launched successfully, and the value of the JPA recognized, member counties want CalMHSA to take on other roles. As such the existing agreement is too narrowly drafted. Approval of today’s recommended action will authorize an amendment to the JEPA that will broaden the role of CalMHSA, allowing it to perform additional services for its members. This is also a request to authorize payment to CalMHSA to study the benefits, if any, of the JPA negotiating and managing state psychiatric beds on behalf of counties. For future JPA projects, if the Director of the Health and Human Services Agency finds that the County of San Diego would benefit by acting jointly with other CalMHSA member counties, the item will be brought to the Board for approval. This item supports the Live Well San Diego initiative by helping build a better mental health service delivery system throughout the San Diego region. FISCAL IMPACT: Funds for the request to pay California Mental Health Services Authority (CalMHSA) are included in the Fiscal Year 2013-14 Adopted Operational Plan in the Health and Human Services Agency. If approved, this request will result in costs of $3,000 in Fiscal Year 2013-14. The funding source is Realignment. There is no change in net General Fund cost and no additional staff years. There is no fiscal impact associated with the amendment of Joint Exercise of Powers Agreement with CalMHSA. There is no change in net General Fund cost and no additional staff years.


BUSINESS IMPACT STATEMENT: N/A RECOMMENDATION: CHIEF ADMINISTRATIVE OFFICER 1. Approve and authorize the Director, Health and Human Services Agency to

execute the Second Amended and Restated Joint Exercise of Powers Agreement, California Mental Health Services Authority (CalMHSA).

2. Authorize payment to CalMHSA not exceeding $3,000 to study the benefits, if

any, of CalMHSA acting on the behalf of member counties for state hospital bed negotiations and management.

6. SUBJECT: ADOPTION OF THE LANTERMAN PETRIS SHORT (“LPS”) DESIGNATION GUIDELINES AND PROCESS FOR FACILITIES WITHIN SAN DIEGO COUNTY AND DESIGNATION OF A NEW LPS FACILITY (DISTRICTS: ALL)

OVERVIEW: Under the Lanterman-Petris-Short (“LPS”) Act as codified in the Welfare and Institutions Code, the Board of Supervisors has had the ability to designate any facility meeting state requirements for mental health evaluation and treatment in order to provide involuntary detention for mentally disordered persons for evaluation and treatment. The ability to designate facilities and staff is subject to the approval of the California Department of Health Care Services.

Today’s recommended action will adopt the LPS Designation Guidelines and Process for Facilities within San Diego County, and consistent with the LPS Guidelines, adopt a resolution designating Rady Children’s Hospital as an LPS facility. This will provide LPS access in the County for seriously emotionally disturbed children and adolescents under age 18. In addition, today’s action will recognize a name change for an existing LPS facility.

This action contributes to the Live Well San Diego initiative by ensuring the effective, efficient, and quality-driven administration of mental health treatment to vulnerable populations of mentally disabled children, youth, adults, and older adults. FISCAL IMPACT: There are no fiscal impacts associated with today’s recommendation. There will be no change in net General Fund cost and no additional staff years. BUSINESS IMPACT STATEMENT: N/A


RECOMMENDATION: CHIEF ADMINISTRATIVE OFFICER 1. Adopt the Lanterman-Petris-Short (LPS) Designation Guidelines and Process

for Facilities within San Diego County.

2. Consistent with the LPS Designation Guidelines and Process, adopt the resolution entitled: RESOLUTION OF THE BOARD OF SUPERVISORS OF THE COUNTY OF SAN DIEGO DESIGNATING A FACILITY TO PROVIDE INVOLUNTARY DETENTION OF MENTALLY DISORDERED PERSONS INCLUDING CHILDREN AND ADOLESCENTS FOR EVALUATION AND TREATMENT, designating Rady Children’s Hospital to provide involuntary evaluation and treatment for severely emotionally disturbed children and adolescents under age 18 (LPS designation) in accordance with applicable California Welfare and Institutions Code regulations for an indefinite period from the date of approval by the California State Department of Health Care Services.

3. Consistent with the LPS Designation Guidelines and Process, note and file the following facilities’ updated names in reference to the facilities’ existing LPS Designation:

Palomar/Pomerado Hospitals-Palomar Health Center and Pomerado Hospital (Gero-Psychiatric Unit).

7. SUBJECT: BEHAVIORAL HEALTH SERVICES’ ALCOHOL AND DRUG SERVICES REVENUE AGREEMENT WITH THE STATE OF CALIFORNIA (DISTRICTS: ALL)

OVERVIEW: The California Department of Health Care Services (DHCS) provides funding to California counties for alcohol and drug services through the Non-Drug Medi-Cal Substance Abuse Treatment Services and Drug Medi-Cal Treatment Program revenue agreements. On June 22, 2010 (9), the Board approved a Multi-Year Revenue Agreement for these two State revenue agreements, previously called, “combined Negotiated Net Amount and Drug Medi-Cal Agreement,” for Fiscal Years 2010-11 through 2012-13. Today’s action requests approval to amend the existing revenue agreement extending the period to June 30, 2014 and accept funding for Fiscal Year 2013-14. Revenue from this agreement will be used to fund an array of alcohol and drug services included in the Health and Human Services Agency’s Operational Plan. This agreement also identifies and provides for covered Drug Medi-Cal services for the Narcotic Treatment Program administered by DHCS. In addition, today’s action requests authority to continue payments of approved claims to DHCS for Narcotic Treatment Programs directly contracted with DHCS.


FISCAL IMPACT: If approved, the combined Non-Drug Medi-Cal Substance Abuse Treatment Services and Drug Medi-Cal Treatment Program agreement will result in annual costs and revenue of $20,270,107. The funding sources are Department of Health Care Services (DHCS) Department of Alcohol and Drug Programs, Federal Financial Participation (FFP) and Realignment. There is no change in net General Fund cost and no additional staff years. If approved, the request to continue payment of invoices from the DHCS for the Narcotic Treatment Program will result in costs and revenue of $2,659,196. The funding source is Realignment. There is no change in net General Fund cost and no additional staff years. Funds for this request are included in the FY 2013-15 Adopted Operational Plan for the Health and Human Services Agency for a total amount of $22,929,303. BUSINESS IMPACT STATEMENT: N/A RECOMMENDATION: CHIEF ADMINISTRATIVE OFFICER 1. Ratify the extension of the combined Non-Drug Medi-Cal Substance Abuse

Treatment Services and Drug Medi-Cal Treatment Program revenue agreement’s term to June 30, 2014, and accept the funding offered up to June 30, 2014 in the amount of $20, 270,107, and authorize the Clerk of the Board to execute the agreement.

2. Approve and authorize the Clerk of the Board, subject to the approval of the

Director, Health and Human Services Agency, to amend the Non-Drug Medi-Cal Substance Abuse Treatment Services and Drug Medi-Cal Treatment Program revenue agreement to reflect revised revenue amounts allocated by the State of California.

3. Continue to authorize payment of invoices for approved claims received from

the California Department of Health Care Services for the Narcotic Treatment Program.

8. SUBJECT: COUNTY OF SAN DIEGO CHILD ABUSE PREVENTION COORDINATING COUNCIL FISCAL YEAR 2013-14 CHILDREN’S TRUST FUND FUNDING PROPOSAL (DISTRICTS: ALL)

OVERVIEW: On April 3, 2012, the Board of Supervisors approved the revised Administrative Code, Article IIIo establishing the new County of San Diego Child Abuse Prevention Coordinating Council (CAPCC).


Welfare and Institutions Code 18966 authorizes a County to establish a Children’s Trust Fund (CTF) with revenue from birth certificate fees. Welfare and Institutions Code section 18967 requires the CAPCC to establish criteria for determining those child abuse and neglect prevention and intervention programs which shall receive funding. Money in the CTF is to be used for child abuse and neglect prevention and intervention programs operated by non-profits or public institutions of higher learning with expertise in child welfare.

The Board has also designated the Council to have oversight and planning responsibilities for two other funding sources: Child Abuse Prevention, Intervention and Treatment (CAPIT) and Community Based Child Abuse Prevention (CBCAP). The CAPIT/CBCAP-funded programs emphasize comprehensive, integrated, collaborative community-based responses to child abuse prevention, intervention and treatment service needs that are not entitlement programs. Today’s item requests approval of the CAPCC Trust Fund Funding Proposal for Fiscal Year 2013-2014, of $1,120,000, including authorization for $175,000 from the Children’s Trust Fund to be used for funding the County’s CAPCC. This action also supports the County’s adopted Live Well San Diego initiative by streamlining coordination and services for children at risk of abuse or neglect and promoting programs aimed at creating healthy, safe and thriving communities. FISCAL IMPACT: Funds for this request are included in the Fiscal Year 2013-2014 Adopted Operational Plan for the Health and Human Services Agency. If approved, this request will result in Fiscal Year 2013-2014 costs and revenue of $1,120,000. The funding source is Children’s Trust Fund. There will be no change in net General Fund cost and no additional staff years. BUSINESS IMPACT STATEMENT: N/A RECOMMENDATION: CHIEF ADMINISTRATIVE OFFICER 1. Approve the attached Council’s Children’s Trust Fund Funding Proposal for

Fiscal Year 2013-2014.

2. Authorize the Director, Health and Human Services Agency, to approve expenditures in accordance with the Fiscal Year 2013-2014 Children’s Trust Fund Funding Proposal.


9. SUBJECT: ACCEPTANCE OF TITLE V MATERNAL AND CHILD HEALTH BLOCK GRANT ALLOCATION AND CALIFORNIA HOME VISITING PROGRAM GRANT FUNDS (DISTRICTS: ALL)

OVERVIEW: For the past 15 years, the Board has approved an agreement with the California Department of Public Health (CDPH), Maternal, Child and Adolescent Health (MCAH) Division, to accept a Title V Maternal and Child Health (MCH) Block Grant Allocation to support State-mandated Maternal, Child and Family Health Services (MCFHS) programs designed to improve the health of pregnant women and their babies. CDPH receives Title V MCH Block Grant funding through the Federal Social Security Act, and distributes the allocation to counties in three year funding cycles. On December 8, 2009 (11), the Board authorized a three year agreement with CDPH for the Title V MCH Block Grant Allocation which began July 1, 2010 and ended June 30, 2013, for a total of $1,591,773 ($530,591 annually). On February 28, 2012 (4), the Board approved an agreement with CDPH MCAH to accept California Home Visiting Program (CHVP) grant funds for effective coordination and delivery of critical health, development, early learning, child abuse and neglect prevention, and family support services to at-risk children and families through home visiting programs. CDPH receives CHVP funds through the Federal Affordable Care Act Maternal, Infant, and Early Childhood Home Visiting (MIECHV) Program. The initial agreement began on February 15, 2012 and ended on June 30, 2013, for a total amount of $1,257,669 ($415,647 for February 15, 2012 through June 30, 2012, and $842,022 for July 1, 2012 through June 30, 2013). Today’s action requests the Board to approve and ratify, and to authorize the Clerk of the Board, upon receipt, to execute, a new three year Title V MCH Block Grant Allocation agreement with CDPH from July 1, 2013 through June 30, 2016, for a three year total of approximately $1,622,634 (approximately $540,878 annually). Board action is also requested to approve and ratify, and to authorize the Clerk of the Board, upon receipt, to execute, a new agreement with CDPH for CHVP grant funds from July 1, 2013 through September 30, 2015, for a total of $1,894,550 ($842,022 annually for July 1, 2013 through June 30, 2015; and $210,506 for July 1, 2015 through September 30, 2015). Authorization is further requested to apply for any additional funding that might be used to address preventive health care, early intervention and treatment programs for at-risk women, children and families in San Diego County. Today’s action supports the County’s Live Well San Diego initiative by supporting preventive health care, early intervention and treatment programs for at-risk women, children and families.


FISCAL IMPACT: Title V Maternal and Child Health Block Grant Allocation Funds for this request are included in the Fiscal Year 2013-14 Adopted Operational Plan for the Health and Human Services Agency.

10. SUBJECT: SHERIFF - FIRST AMENDMENT TO LEASE AGREEMENT - NORTH COUNTY REGIONAL GANG TASK FORCE, 182 SANTAR PLACE, SAN MARCOS (DISTRICT: 5)

OVERVIEW: On October 22, 2002 (7), the Board approved a lease with the City of San Marcos for 3,940 square feet in the San Marcos Sheriff’s Station building at 182 Santar Place, San Marcos for the North County Regional Gang Task Force. The lease with North County Regional Gang Task Force commenced June 1, 2003 and terminated on May 31, 2013. The lease has been on holdover since May to allow the City of San Marcos and the Sheriff to work with other tenants in the building to reach agreement on a space plan to incorporate 761 additional square feet into this lease for a new conference room. The City of San Marcos will construct the tenant improvements necessary to incorporate the conference room into the existing lease space. Today’s request is to approve the First Amendment to extend the lease term for five years, reduce the rental rate, include one five-year option to extend the lease term, and include an additional 761 square feet for a conference room. FISCAL IMPACT: Funds for this request are included in the Fiscal Year 2013-2014 Operational Plan in the Sheriff’s Department. If approved, this request will result in current year costs of $129,087 for lease costs ($119,087) and tenant improvements ($10,000). The estimated annual cost for Fiscal Year 2014-15 is $124,110. Under the negotiated lease amendment, the lease rate will decrease from approximately $2.12 to $1.75 per square foot. The prior contract rent of $8,338 plus utilities, custodial, and maintenance for 3,940 square feet will decrease under the First Amendment to $8,261.75 plus utilities, custodial, and maintenance for the expanded 4,721 square feet resulting in estimated cost savings of $2,245 for Fiscal Year 2013-2014. A refurbishment allowance of $28,206 for carpeting, paint and moving costs will be provided by the Lessor. Additional tenant improvement costs of $10,000 will be paid for by the Sheriff to remove existing walls and provide doorways to incorporate the classroom into the lease space. All improvement work is anticipated to be completed and the new rent to commence October 1, 2013. The funding source is general purpose revenue allocated to the Sheriff’s Department. There will be no change in net General Fund cost and no additional staff years. BUSINESS IMPACT STATEMENT: N/A RECOMMENDATION: CHIEF ADMINISTRATIVE OFFICER 1. Find, in accordance with Section 15301 of the California Environmental

Quality Act (CEQA) Guidelines, that the proposed lease amendment is categorically exempt from the provisions of CEQA, as it involves the continuation of an existing use.


2. Approve and authorize the Director, Department of General Services to execute three copies of the First Amendment with the City of San Marcos.

3. Authorize the Director, Department of General Services to exercise the option

to extend the lease, prior to expiration, if appropriate.

11. SUBJECT: APPROVE IN PRINCIPLE SEARCH FOR OFFICE SPACE TO RELOCATE THE PUBLIC DEFENDER (ALTERNATE AND PRIMARY PUBLIC DEFENDER) – SOUTH BAY (DISTRICT: 1)

OVERVIEW: The South Bay offices of the Public Defender (Primary and Alternate Public Defender) have been located in a 14,880 square-foot leased facility at 765 Third Avenue, Chula Vista since 1990. The current facility no longer meets the needs of the Department. The lease expires October 31, 2014, but contains an early termination provision upon notice by the County. The Public Defender has requested that the Department of General Services conduct a search for alternate space within close proximity to the South County Regional Center and negotiate with potential landlords for such suitable space. The Department of General Services has completed a space validation for approximately 15,500 useable square feet. Today, the Board is requested to approve in principle the market search and negotiation of leased space suitable for the relocation of the Public Defender from 765 Third Avenue. FISCAL IMPACT: Funds for this request are included in the Fiscal Year 2013-14 Operational Plan for the Public Defender. The funding source is the General Fund. There will be no additional staff years required. BUSINESS IMPACT STATEMENT: N/A RECOMMENDATION: CHIEF ADMINISTRATIVE OFFICER 1. Find, in accordance with Section 15301 of the California Environmental

Quality Act (CEQA) Guidelines, that this project is categorically exempt from the provisions of CEQA because it will result in the leasing of existing office space involving negligible or no expansion of existing use.

2. Approve in Principle the lease of approximately 15,500 useable square feet of

office space for the Public Defender. 3. Authorize the Director, Department of General Services to finalize a market

13. SUBJECT: HOUSING AND COMMUNITY DEVELOPMENT - TERMINATION OF THE JOINT EXERCISE OF POWERS AGREEMENT CREATING THE SAN DIEGO AREA HOUSING AND FINANCE AGENCY, ALLOCATION AND APPROPRIATION OF AGENCY PROCEEDS (DISTRICTS: ALL)

OVERVIEW: The San Diego Area Housing and Finance Agency (Agency) was created in 1999 to provide home loans to qualified persons and families; to finance the construction, rehabilitation, acquisition, lease, and sale of housing; and to issue revenue bonds to provide the necessary financing for these housing programs. The Agency’s Board of Directors has determined that the Agency has served its stated purpose in providing such financing and is no longer necessary because all projects and programs have been completed. The Agency has no outstanding obligations or claims, and all bonds and interest have been paid. The recommended action will terminate the County of San Diego’s participation in the Joint Exercise of Powers Agreement (Agreement) creating the Agency. This action will allow for the subsequent termination of the Agency by the Agency’s Board of Directors. In addition, the recommended actions will authorize the allocation and appropriation of the County’s proportional share of the Agency assets to fund affordable housing-related services and activities conducted by the County of San Diego Department of Housing and Community Development. FISCAL IMPACT: Funds for this request are not included in the Fiscal Year 2013-14 Operational Plan for the Department of Housing and Community Development.

14. SUBJECT: ANIMAL SERVICES - EXTEND ANIMAL CONTROL SERVICES CONTRACTS WITH LOCAL CITIES FROM FISCAL YEAR 2013-2014 THROUGH FISCAL YEAR 2018-2019 (DISTRICTS: 1, 2, 3, 5)

OVERVIEW: On May 12, 2009 (8), the Board of Supervisors approved the Department of Animal Services’ standard five-year contract for animal control services with six local cities. These contracts expired on June 30, 2013, and the Department has been on holdover status since that time. The Department is seeking to renew these contracts for another five years. The standard contract was originally developed through the combined efforts of representatives of the Department and the contract cities. It included a clause that a new Joint Operating and Financial Plan would be developed by all parties using an agreed-upon costing methodology and that the contract would be amended accordingly each year in regard to cost. Included with this letter are five of the six city contracts to renew the contract for another five years. The attached contracts have been approved by the individual city councils of the cities of Carlsbad, Del Mar, Encinitas, Santee and Solana Beach. The contract with the City of San Diego is still going through their contract approval process. The City has informed the Department in writing that the City of San Diego has every intention of approving the five-year contract renewal. Staff will return to the Board of Supervisors for approval of the City of San Diego’s contract. During this period of time, the City of San Diego remains bound by the previous contracts payment provisions and continues to make payments to the Department for animal control-related services.


FISCAL IMPACT: Funds for this request are included in the Fiscal Year 2013-2014 Operational Plan in the Department of Animal Services. If approved, this request will result in Fiscal Year 2013-14 costs and revenue of $1,564,036 to provide animal control services to the cities of Carlsbad, Del Mar, Encinitas, Santee and Solana Beach. The funding sources are fees collected from contract city residents ($379,300) and contract payments per the agreements ($1,199,011). Additionally, cities pay 5% of their dog licensing revenue ($14,275) to cover the costs of the spay/neuter program. Future year costs will be fully offset by revenue from fees and contract payments. There will be no change in net General Funds cost and no additional staff years. BUSINESS IMPACT STATEMENT: N/A RECOMMENDATION: CHIEF ADMINISTRATIVE OFFICER 1. Authorize the Director, Department of Animal Services to execute the

Agreement between the County and each of the five contract cities (Carlsbad, Del Mar, Encinitas, Santee and Solana Beach) to renew the agreement for animal control services for another five years.

2. Authorize the Director, Department of Animal Services to execute the Agreement between the County of San Diego and the five contract cities (Carlsbad, Del Mar, Encinitas, Santee and Solana Beach) for the provision of animal control services to establish annual costs for Fiscal Year 2013-14.

3. Authorize the Director, Department of Animal Services, with County Counsel

concurrence, to execute contract amendments for annual cost revisions for the next four years (Fiscal Year 2014-15 through Fiscal Year 2018-19) for animal control services to the cities of Carlsbad, Del Mar, Encinitas, Santee and Solana Beach using the established costing methodology.

OVERVIEW: On August 6, 2013 (8), the Board introduced the Ordinances for further Board consideration and adoption on September 10, 2013. In accordance with Board of Supervisors Policy A-76, Sunset Review, the County’s five business groups periodically review certain Board policies and applicable Articles of the County Administrative Code to ensure that obsolete policies and Code provisions are deleted, and that remaining policies and code provisions reflect current standards and practices. The Community Services Group recently reviewed the following seven Board policies, three sections of the Administrative Code, and County Counsel reviewed the following section of the Code of Regulatory Ordinances:

Board Policy A-081 Procurement of Contract Services Board Policy A-087 Competitive Procurement Board Policy A-089 Delegation of Authority for Certain Lease and

Promissory Note Management Responsibilities to CAO and County

Counsel Board Policy A-097 Protest Procedures for Award of Contracts Board Policy F-005 Special Assessment Payments - County-Owned Board Policy G-009 Parking of Private Vehicles by County Employees at

Contracting County Code of Regulatory Ordinances Sec. 32.923. Campaign Contributions – Limitations

Additionally, the Board is requested to approve the Ordinance adding Section 365 to ensure full cost recovery for land development services provided by the Department of General Services. This action requires two steps. On August 6, 2013, the Board will consider approving amendments to these Board policies and sections of the County Administrative and Regulatory Codes. If the Board takes the actions on August 6, 2013, in recommendations 3-6, then on September 10, 2013, the Board is requested to adopt Ordinances deleting Article XXXIV from the Administrative Code relating to the Community Redevelopment Agency; adding Section 365 to the Administrative Code relating to deposits for the Department of General Services; amending Section 401 of the Administrative Code relating to the Department of Purchasing & Contracting, and amending the San Diego County Code of Regulatory Ordinances relating to campaign financing requirements. FISCAL IMPACT: Funds for this request are budgeted in the Fiscal Year 2013-14 CAO approved Operational Plan. A portion of this proposal relates to the addition of Section 365 of the Administrative Code which would create standard hourly billing rates and deposits to ensure full cost recovery for land development services provided by the Department of General Services. If approved, this request will result in Fiscal Year 2013-14 estimated costs and revenue of $80,000. BUSINESS IMPACT STATEMENT: N/A RECOMMENDATION: CHIEF ADMINISTRATIVE OFFICER 1. Find the Ordinance adding Section 365 to the Administrative Code Relating to

Deposits for the Department of General Services is exempt from the California Environmental Quality Act (CEQA) as specified under Section 15273 of the CEQA Guidelines. Approve the findings in Attachment D, on file with the Clerk of the Board, pursuant to CEQA Guidelines Section 15273(c).

16. SUBJECT: NOTICED PUBLIC HEARING: ISSUANCE OF REVENUE OBLIGATIONS BY THE CALIFORNIA ENTERPRISE DEVELOPMENT AUTHORITY FOR THE BENEFIT OF SANTA FE CHRISTIAN SCHOOLS IN AN AGGREGATE AMOUNT NOT TO EXCEED $13,000,000 (DISTRICT: 3)

OVERVIEW: The County has received a request from the California Enterprise Development Authority (“CEDA” or “Authority”) to conduct a public hearing as required by the Internal Revenue Code and to approve the Authority’s issuance of revenue obligations in an aggregate principal amount not to exceed $13,000,000 (“Obligations”), on behalf of Santa Fe Christian Schools, a nonprofit religious corporation duly organized and existing under the laws of the State of California (“Borrower”). The Borrower will use the proceeds of the Obligations to refinance the Borrower’s obligation in the approximate amount of $9,000,000 outstanding under that certain Loan Agreement, dated as of November 1, 2010, by and among First Republic Bank, the Issuer and the Borrower, the proceeds of which refinanced the cost of acquiring, constructing, renovating, equipping and furnishing educational facilities consisting of classrooms, a library and related educational facilities (“2010 Facilities”) located at 838 Academy Drive, Solana Beach, California 92075 (“Property”); finance the cost of constructing additional improvements on the Property consisting of a new approximately 4,700 square foot


classroom building to house students in kindergarten through fifth grade, improvements to the athletic fields and athletic facilities, infrastructure improvements designed to provide additional parking and improved traffic circulation and other enhancements to the Borrower’s campus (“2013 Facilities” and, together with the 2010 Facilities, “Facilities”); and pay the costs of issuance in connection with the financing. CEDA is authorized to assist in financing for nonprofit public benefit organizations or for-profit corporations with a public benefit project wishing to issue tax-exempt obligations, including the Borrower. In order to initiate such a financing, a member jurisdiction in which the Project resides, i.e., the County of San Diego, must: (1) conduct a public hearing to satisfy the public approval requirement of Section 147(f) of the Internal Revenue Code; and (2) approve CEDA’s issuance of the Obligations. Although CEDA will be the issuer of the Obligations for the Borrower, the financing cannot proceed without the approval of the County of San Diego. Today’s recommendations will provide CEDA with the required authorization to pursue its determination to issue the Obligations on behalf of the Borrower for the Project. FISCAL IMPACT: If approved, the proposal will result in $1,000 of unanticipated revenue to be used to reimburse the County for costs associated with this non-County financing. The Borrower will be responsible for the payment of all present and future costs in connection with issuance of the Financing. The County will incur no obligation of indebtedness as a result of these actions. BUSINESS IMPACT STATEMENT: N/A RECOMMENDATION: CHIEF ADMINISTRATIVE OFFICER 1. Pursuant to Section 147(f) of the Internal Revenue Code, hold a public hearing

regarding the financing of the Project.

2. Adopt a resolution entitled: RESOLUTION OF THE BOARD OF SUPERVISORS OF THE COUNTY OF SAN DIEGO APPROVING THE ISSUANCE BY THE CALIFORNIA ENTERPRISE DEVELOPMENT AUTHORITY OF ITS REVENUE OBLIGATIONS FOR THE BENEFIT OF SANTA FE CHRISTIAN SCHOOLS IN AN AGGREGATE AMOUNT NOT TO EXCEED $13,000,000 FOR THE PURPOSE OF FINANCINGS AND REFINANCING THE COST OF THE ACQUISITION, CONSTRUCTION, RENOVATION, EQUIPPING AND FURNISHING OF CERTAIN PROPERTY, PROVIDING THE TERMS AND CONDITIONS FOR SUCH OBLIGATIONS AND OTHER MATTERS RELATING THERETO.

OVERVIEW: This is a request for the Board of Supervisors to approve a new resolution governing San Diego County Employees Retirement Association Board of Retirement election procedures for member trustees. The proposed resolution would replace and update four existing Board of Supervisors resolutions. SDCERA determined to request a new resolution governing for the following reasons: 1.) The resolution will end the involvement of SDCERA staff in the election process that exists under the current resolutions by providing that the Registrar of Voters will manage the entire election process, at SDCERA expense. This change will enhance the independence and integrity of SDCERA Board elections. 2.) The existing resolutions, which were adopted from 1982 to 2004, have not been updated in many years. Certain provisions in the existing resolutions are now out of date because of changes to the SDCERA’s governing statute, changes in election practices and technology, and other developments. 3.) It will be helpful to consolidate the existing resolutions into a single resolution and thereby make the election procedures uniform for all Board of Retirement elections and easier for SDCERA staff, members, and the Registrar of Voters to understand and use. FISCAL IMPACT: There will be no increase in net General Fund cost and no additional staff years. BUSINESS IMPACT STATEMENT: N/A RECOMMENDATION: CHIEF ADMINISTRATIVE OFFICER Adopt the resolution entitled:

RESOLUTION ESTABLISHING THE PROCEDURE FOR THE ELECTION OF THE SECOND, THIRD, SEVENTH, ALTERNATE SEVENTH, EIGHTH, AND ALTERNATE RETIRED MEMBERS OF THE BOARD OF RETIREMENT.
