| |OVERVIEW: |

| |Today’s action will Direct the Chief Administrative Officer to work with the Friends of the Descanso Library to develop a cost |

| |estimate to expand the Descanso Library by approximately 500 square feet. |

|2. |SUBJECT: |REDUCING METAL THEFT IN SAN DIEGO COUNTY (DISTRICT: ALL) |

| |OVERVIEW: |

| |This past summer the County of San Diego witnessed a drastic increase in thefts of a wide range of metal and metal products, most |

| |notably the bronze vases used at cemetery gravesites. These stolen metals are then sold to local recyclers. State laws are in place |

| |that require recyclers and junk dealers to keep a written record of goods they purchase and the identities of the sellers. |

| |The recent high incidence of such theft indicates that some recyclers in San Diego County may be unaware of the current laws in place |

| |– otherwise the thieves would be less inclined to steal the vases and sell them to recyclers. It is possible that recyclers are not |

| |recording what they receive and that the laws are not being consistently enforced. Therefore, the County must do everything it can to|

| |ensure the selling of stolen goods is not rewarded. |

| |Today’s action will direct the Chief Administrative Officer to draft a letter from the Board of Supervisors, and signed by the |

| |Chairman, to all the Mayors in San Diego County encouraging them to remind the recyclers in their respective jurisdictions of the |

| |state requirements. It will also direct County Counsel to investigate whether any additional County ordinances could be helpful in the|

| |investigation of these crimes and in the recovery of stolen property. |

| |FISCAL IMPACT: |

| |There is no fiscal impact related to this proposal |

| |RECOMMENDATION: |

| |SUPERVISOR JACOB |

| |Direct the Chief Administrative Officer to draft a letter for signature by the Chairman to all the Mayors within San Diego County |

| |encouraging them to remind the recyclers in their jurisdiction of the state law requirements for recording purchases and identities. |

| |Direct County Counsel to research, in coordination with the District Attorney and the Sheriff, any additional ordinances that would be|

| |helpful in facilitating the investigation of such crimes and also aid in the property recovery process. |

| |ACTION: |

| |ON MOTION of Supervisor Slater-Price, seconded by Supervisor Jacob, the Board took action as recommended, on Consent. |

| |AYES: Cox, Jacob, Slater-Price, Horn |

| |ABSENT: Roberts |

|3. |SUBJECT: |LOCAL COMMUNITY PROJECTS (DISTRICT 1) |

| |OVERVIEW: |

| |(40). The purpose of the Health Services Advisory Board is to review and make recommendations on Health and Human Services Agency |

| |policies, programs, budgetary matters, community issues, and related legislation. |

| | |

| |On May 18, 2006, the County of San Diego Health Services Advisory Board adopted bylaws revisions which reflect changes regarding: |

| |Handling of unexcused absences for advisory board members; |

|12. |SUBJECT: |ADMINISTRATIVE SERVICES ORGANIZATION CONTRACT EXTENSION FOR MENTAL HEALTH SERVICES (DISTRICT: ALL) |

| |OVERVIEW: |

| |On June 12, 2005 (4), the Board authorized the competitive procurement of a contractor to implement a new Management Information |

| |System (MIS) for Mental Health Services. The procurement process was completed and negotiations are now underway with the selected |

| |vendor. On September 20, 2005 (9), the Board authorized a competitive procurement for the Mental Health Services’ Administrative |

| |Services Organization (ASO) as well as an extension of the existing ASO contract with United Behavioral Health (UBH) through June |

| |2007. The extension was authorized to prevent disruption to the MIS support provided by UBH during implementation of the new MIS. |

| |Since then, the County’s Health and Human Services Agency (HHSA) began centralizing billing functions for all HHSA divisions. Due to |

| |this change, critical and complex technical billing functions, currently handled by the existing Mental Health ASO, will be |

| |transferred to HHSA. Additionally, finalization of the new MIS has been more complex and taken longer than anticipated. |

| |This item requests authorization for the Director of the Department of Purchasing and Contracting to negotiate and execute an |

| |extension of the contract with UBH through June 30, 2008, to allow sufficient time for the orderly transfer of critical billing |

| |functions and the successful implementation of the new MIS. It will also ensure the maintenance of staff expertise to effectively |

| |coordinate the various transitions, support uninterrupted billing activity and maximize revenue generation for mental health programs.|

| |FISCAL IMPACT: |

| |Funding for this proposal is included in the Fiscal Year 2006-08 Operational Plan. If approved, this request will result in Fiscal |

| |Year 2006-07 costs and revenue of $9,731,813, Fiscal Year 2007-08 costs and revenue of $10,121,086, and Fiscal Year 2008-09 costs and |

| |revenue of $5,262,965. The funding sources are Mental Health Realignment, Short/Doyle Medi-Cal FFP and the Substance Abuse Prevention|

| |and Treatment Block Grant. |

| |If approved, this request will result in no change in net General Fund cost and will not require additional staff years. |

| |RECOMMENDATION: |

| |CHIEF ADMINISTRATIVE OFFICER |

| |In accordance with Board Policy A-87, Competitive Procurement, approve and authorize the Director, Department of Purchasing and |

| |Contracting, to negotiate an amendment to contract 45234 to ensure a successful transition of services from United Behavioral Health |

| |(UBH) to the County of San Diego Health and Human Services Agency, Financial Services and Support Division, and upon successful |

| |negotiations, to extend the contract with UBH for an additional one-year period, and one 6-month option period, if needed, to |

| |accomplish the required transitions of the client and third-party billing services to the County of San Diego, as outlined herein, and|

|13. |SUBJECT: |PROCUREMENT OF SIGN LANGUAGE INTERPRETATION SERVICES (DISTRICT: ALL) |

| |OVERVIEW: |

| |The Board of Supervisors has demonstrated a long-term commitment to providing specialized services, such as sign language |

| |interpretation, to assist disabled individuals in accessing County services. Additionally, the Americans with Disabilities Act of |

| |1990, Title II requires that State and local governments provide people with disabilities equal opportunity to benefit from all of the|

| |programs, services and activities at public service agencies. Provision of sign language interpretation services for the hearing |

| |impaired is necessary to meet this mandate. Interpreter services are used in all County departments, with highest usage in Child |

| |Welfare Services. |

| | |

| |On June 12, 2003, the County of San Diego, Department of Purchasing & Contracting issued a Request for Proposal and awarded contracts |

| |to both respondents, Deaf Community Services and Network Interpreting Services, Inc., for sign language interpreter services. The |

| |contracts expire December 31, 2006. Board action is requested today to authorize the Director of Purchasing and Contracting to |

| |negotiate sole source contracts for continuation of the sign language interpretation services with both of these agencies to ensure |

| |that services will be available to meet the volume of services needed in a timely manner. |

| |FISCAL IMPACT: |

| |Funds for this request are included in the Health and Human Services Agency’s FY 2006-2008 Operational Plan. If approved, this action|

| |will result in FY 2006-2007 and subsequent years costs and revenue of $112,402. The funding source is Child Welfare Services ($94,402)|

| |and general purpose revenue ($18,000). There is no change to the net General Fund cost or staff years. Other County departments using|

| |interpretation services will pay for those services using funds from their respective Operational Plans. |

| |RECOMMENDATION: |

| |CHIEF ADMINISTRATIVE OFFICER |

| |In accordance with Board Policy A-87, Competitive Procurement, approve and authorize the Director, Department of Purchasing and |

| |Contracting, to enter into negotiations with Network Interpreter’s Services and Deaf Community Services, and subject to negotiations |

| |and determination of a fair and reasonable price, award contracts for sign language interpretation services through June 30, 2007, |

| |with four option periods through June 30, 2011, and up to an additional six months, if necessary, and to amend the contract as needed |

| |to reflect changes to services and funding, subject to the approval of the Director, Health and Human Services Agency. Waive the |

| |advertising requirement of Board Policy A-87. |

|14. |SUBJECT: |FY 2006-07 TUBERCULOSIS CONTROL REVENUES AND SERVICES (DISTRICT: ALL) |

| |OVERVIEW: |

| |The Health and Human Services Agency provides for the prevention and control of the spread of tuberculosis through a combination of |

| |federal, State and other funding since the 1980s. Pursuant to authority provided by the Board on March 16, 1999 (3) allowing Public |

| |Health Services to seek outside funding to prevent the spread of communicable diseases, the Health and Human Services Agency has |

| |continued to obtain grant awards from the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention, State of California Department of Health |

| |Services, and Public Health Institute for countywide tuberculosis treatment and control services to reduce the incidence rate and |

| |transmission of tuberculosis in the County. |

| | |

| |Today’s action seeks Board approval to accept revenues in current grants awarded by the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention, |

| |State of California Department of Health Services, and Public Health Institute for tuberculosis treatment and control services. |

| |FISCAL IMPACT: |

| |The FY 2006-2008 Operational Plan for the Health and Human Services Agency includes $2,952,638 in CDC and State funding for TB |

| |control. If approved, this proposal will result in an increase of $410,518 in unanticipated revenue to current year costs and |

| |revenues for a total of $3,363,156 and total costs and revenues of $3,157,156 and $3,149,326 in FYs 2007-2008 and 2008-2009, |

| |respectively. The funding sources are the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention, State of California Department of Health |

| |Services, and Public Health Institute. There will be no change in net General Fund Cost and no additional staff years. |

| |RECOMMENDATION: |

|15. |SUBJECT: |ACCEPT STATE WATER GRANT FOR COUNTY OPERATIONS CENTER, AUTHORIZE EXECUTION OF GRANT AGREEMENT AND |

| | |CONTRACT FOR PROFESSIONAL SERVICES, AMEND INTERNAL SERVICE FUND (DISTRICT: 4) |

| |OVERVIEW: |

| |On May 16, 2006 (10), the Board authorized the Department of General Services to file a Proposition 40 Nonpoint Source Pollution |

| |Control grant with the State Water Resources Control Board in response to the announcement of approximately $143 million in funding |

| |available from the State of California 2005-2006 Consolidated Grant Program. |

| |On September 6, 2006, the State of California Water Resources Control Board approved a grant of $1.5 million to the County of San |

| |Diego, Department of General Services to expand and upgrade porous pavement and structural treatment controls for stormwater |

| |management at the County Operations Center. This grant will also fund additional performance monitoring, educational training, and |

| |demonstration events to other municipalities, local interest groups, and the construction industry using the County Operations Center |

| |as a regional model operations center. |

| | |

| |The new award will allow the County to continue and upgrade work already done at the County Operations Center as a result of an April |

| |2004 grant award of $1.4 million. As a result of that grant, the Department of General Services has successfully designed and |

| |installed approximately 63,000 square feet of porous pavement, a centralized stormwater pre-treatment unit, and a media filtration |

| |treatment unit at the County Operations Center as a demonstration grant. In addition, staff and consultants to the Department of |

| |General Services have performed outreach and training to municipalities, interest groups, and the construction industry demonstrating |

| |the benefits of these innovative best management practices for stormwater management and pollution control. The San Diego Regional |

| |Water Quality Control Board has continually supported the project and Regional Board staff members have visited the Phase I project. |

| |The County is providing $500,000 in matching funds from the General Fund fund balance, included in the FY 06-08 Operational Plan. |

| |This is a request to accept the recently awarded $1.5 million and to authorize the Department of General Services to negotiate a grant|

| |agreement with the State of California Water Resources Control Board to fund Phase II of the model demonstration stormwater management|

| |program for the San Diego region at the County Operations Center. Your Board is also requested to authorize the Director of |

| |Purchasing and Contracting to take the necessary action to contract for consulting services in an amount not to exceed $250,000. |

| |FISCAL IMPACT: |

| |The total project cost is $2,000,000, with $1,500,000 funded by the 2005-2006 Consolidated Grants Program Proposition 40 Nonpoint |

| |Source Pollution Control Grant Program and $500,000 funded by Charges in the General Fund. The grant requires the County to provide |

| |in-kind matching funds of a minimum of 25% of the total project cost. Funding for the County match is included in the FY 06-08 |

| |Operational Plan. The source of the matching funds is General Fund fund balance. |

| | |

| |The project is expected to span three fiscal years and is not included in the Internal Service Fund’s spending plan. The projected |

| |costs in FY 2006-07 are $1,400,000 and $600,000 in the subsequent two years. There will be no additional staff years required. |

| |BUSINESS IMPACT STATEMENT: |

| |Implementation of the grant would continue to provide data and analysis to the County, private engineers, architects, and the |

| |stormwater industry on the feasibility, performance, and costs of utilizing porous pavement design alternatives and centralized |

| |stormwater treatment controls in the design of private and public facilities. |

| |RECOMMENDATION: |

| |CHIEF ADMINISTRATIVE OFFICER |

| |Find that in accordance with California Environmental Quality Act (CEQA) Guidelines Sections 15301 and 15302 the installation of |

| |porous pavement and enhanced structural stormwater treatment controls are categorically exempt, in that it involves the minor |

| |alteration, replacement, or reconstruction of existing public structures with negligible expansion of use. |

| | |

| |Adopt a resolution entitled: “Resolution of the San Diego County Board of Supervisors Authorizing the Director, Department of General|

| |Services to Accept Proposition 40 NPSPCP 2005-2006 Consolidated Grant funds and to Authorize the Director to Enter into a Grant |

| |to contract for professional services up to a maximum of $250,000 for design, surveying, and engineering services for the porous |

|16. |SUBJECT: |ACCEPT STATE WATER GRANT FOR SAN PASQUAL ACADEMY, AUTHORIZE EXECUTION OF GRANT AGREEMENT AND CONTRACT |

| | |FOR PROFESSIONAL SERVICES, AMEND INTERNAL SERVICE FUND (DISTRICT: ALL) |

| |OVERVIEW: |

| |On May 16, 2006 (10), the Board authorized the Department of General Services to file grant applications with the State of California |

| |Water Resources Control Board in response to the announcement of approximately $143 million in bond funding available from the State |

| |of California 2005-2006 Consolidated Grant Program. |

| | |

| |On September 21, 2006, the State of California Water Resources Control Board approved a grant of $750,000 to the County of San Diego |

| |Department of General Services to improve water quality and supply while providing natural flood control protection at San Pasqual |

| |Academy, the County-owned and managed residence and school for high school students in the foster care system. |

| | |

| |The award under the Proposition 40 Urban Stormwater Program proposes a natural bio-filtration channel to filter silt-laden discharge |

| |from an adjacent valley and improve water quality, while providing natural flood control protection; this grant also proposes a porous|

| |surface parking lot in the central campus to reduce stormwater runoff and re-charge ground water. |

| | |

| |The County is providing $250,000 in matching funds from the General Fund fund balance, included in the FY 06-08 Operational Plan. |

| | |

| |This is a request to accept the awarded funding, execute the grant agreement, and proceed with program designs at the San Pasqual |

| |Academy. |

| |FISCAL IMPACT: |

| |The total project cost is $1,000,000, with $750,000 funded from State of California Proposition 40 and $250,000 matching funds funded |

| |by Charges to the General Fund. The terms of the grant program require the County to provide matching funds of a minimum of 25% of |

| |the total project cost. Funding for the County match is included in the FY 06-08 Operational Plan. The source of the matching funds |

| |is General Fund fund balance. |

| | |

| |The projects are expected to span three fiscal years and are not included in the Internal Service Fund’s Spending Plan. The projected|

| |costs in FY 2006-07 are approximately $250,000 with the remaining $750,000 in the subsequent two years. There will be no additional |

| |staff years required. |

| |BUSINESS IMPACT STATEMENT: |

| |Expenditures resulting from this action may create private sector jobs and economic opportunities in San Diego County. |

| |RECOMMENDATION: |

| |CHIEF ADMINISTRATIVE OFFICER |

| |Find that the proposed activity is not subject to the California Environmental Quality Act (CEQA) under Section 15004 (b) of the |

| |Guidelines because it is too early in the conceptualization, design, and planning process to evaluate the environmental impacts. |

| | |

| |Adopt a resolution entitled, “Resolution of the San Diego County Board of Supervisors Authorizing the Director, Department of General |

| | |(DISTRICT: ALL) |

| |OVERVIEW: |

| |The Political Reform Act (PRA) requires local government agencies to adopt and promulgate conflict of interest codes. The Fair |

| |Political Practices Commission (“FPPC”) has adopted a regulation, which contains the terms of a standard conflict of interest code. |

| |It can be incorporated by reference and may be amended by the FPPC after public notice and hearings to conform to amendments in the |

| |PRA. |

| | |

| |Several years ago, the County developed a Model Conflict of Interest Code for each County department to adopt as its departmental |

| |Conflict of Interest Code. All County departments have now adopted the Model Code for their respective departments. The County now |

| |is proposing some changes to the Model Conflict of Interest Code for the reasons described in the Background of this Board letter. |

| |However, rather than require each County department to amend its Conflict of Interest Code, a Countywide Conflict of Interest Code |

| |applicable to all County departments has been prepared and is presented to the Board of Supervisors for approval. This “global” |

| |County Conflict of Interest Code will replace each County department’s Conflict of Interest Code, and will serve as the County’s |

| |single official document representing the County of San Diego Conflict of Interest Code applicable to all County departments. |
