|1. |SUBJECT: |PUBLIC HEARING - RECOMMENDED FY 2003-2004 ANNUAL FUNDING PLAN FOR COMMUNITY DEVELOPMENT BLOCK GRANT, HOME INVESTMENT |

| | |PARTNERSHIPS, EMERGENCY SHELTER GRANT, AND HOUSING OPPORTUNITIES FOR PERSONS WITH AIDS PROGRAMS (DISTRICT: ALL) |

| |OVERVIEW: |

| |On August 13, 2002 (19), the Board of Supervisors considered and approved the FY 2003-2004 Annual Funding Plan Strategy (Strategy) for the |

| |Community Development Block Grant, HOME Investment Partnerships, Emergency Shelter Grant, and Housing Opportunities for Persons with AIDS |

| |Programs. This Strategy provides an outline of County program policies and priorities, program target areas, and allocations of anticipated |

| |funds into various funding categories. The Board also directed staff to prepare a Draft FY 2003-2004 Annual Funding Plan. The actions |

| |before the Board at this time are to receive public testimony on the Draft FY 2003-2004 Annual Funding Plan, and to approve the Plan in |

| |principle. Staff will return to the Board with any additional information required following a 30-day public review and comment period. |

| |Although to date final figures have not been issued by the U.S. Department of Housing and Urban Development, it is estimated that funds |

| |totaling $12,808,981 will be available to the San Diego County Consortium in FY 2003-2004 from these four entitlement programs. The programs|

| |provide funds for revitalization of lower income communities, development of affordable housing for low income residents and persons with |

| |special needs, and implementation of homeless assistance programs. |

| |FISCAL IMPACT: |

| |This request has no fiscal impact. When finally approved on April 29, 2003, the FY 2003-2004 Annual Funding Plan for the Community |

| |Development Block Grant, HOME Investment Partnerships, Emergency Shelter Grant, and Housing Opportunities for Persons with AIDS Programs is |

| |estimated to result in federal revenues totaling $12,808,981. There is no net General Fund cost. The funding will be used for community |

| |development, housing and emergency shelter grant projects, and affordable housing and services for persons with HIV/AIDS and their families. |

| |BUSINESS IMPACT STATEMENT: |

| |This recommendation will have a positive impact on the business community. Many of the recommended projects include construction, which will|

| |be implemented by private firms selected through a competitive bid process. |

| |RECOMMENDATION: |

| |CHIEF ADMINISTRATIVE OFFICER |

| |Receive public testimony on the Draft FY 2003-2004 San Diego County Annual Funding Plan outlining the proposed use of the County's Community |

| |Development Block Grant, HOME Investment Partnerships, Emergency Shelter Grant, and Housing Opportunities for Persons with AIDS funds. |

| |Approve the Draft FY 2003-2004 Annual Funding Plan in principle, and direct the Chief Administrative Officer to return to the Board of |

| |Supervisors by April 29, 2003, with responses to any Board referrals. |

| |ACTION: |

| |Adding recommendations: 1) Direct the Chief Administrative Officer to see if the County can come up with half of the amount, about $120,000 |

| |and if the Boys and Girls Club can produce the other half needed to expand the facility; 2) Direct the Chief Administrative Officer to |

| |identify an additional $5,000 for the previously funded Shelter Valley Fire Engine replacement, to cover increases in the vehicle cost; 3) |

| |Direct the Chief Administrative Officer to reallocate the remaining CDBG funds of $195,000 from the Ramona Boys and Girls Club Gymnasium to |

| |the Collier Park Outdoor Basketball Court, ON MOTION of Supervisor Jacob, seconded by Supervisor Horn, the Board of Supervisors took action |

| |as recommended, and directed the Chief Administrative Officer to return to the Board on April 29, 2003. |

| | |

| |AYES: Cox, Jacob, Slater, Roberts, Horn |

| |

| |

|2. |SUBJECT: |REALLOCATION OF COMMUNITY DEVELOPMENT BLOCK GRANT FUNDS AND TIME EXTENSIONS FOR FUNDING OF TWO HOUSING PROJECTS |

| | |(DISTRICT: ALL) |

| |OVERVIEW: |

| |The Community Development Block Grant Program provides federal U. S. Housing and Urban Development funds for the revitalization of lower |

| |income communities, including public improvement projects and affordable housing for those communities. In addition, the HOME Investment |

| |Partnerships Program annually provides U. S. Department of Housing and Urban Development funds for a variety of housing development programs,|

| |including, but not limited to, acquisition, rehabilitation, new construction, rental assistance and first-time homebuyer assistance. |

| | |

| |The recommendations will: (1) reallocate $30,000 in Community Development Block Grant funding from the approved FY 2002-03 Shelter Valley |

| |Community Center Site Improvements/Permits Project ($40,000) to the proposed FY 2002-03 Shelter Valley Community Center Expansion |

| |Predevelopment Project, (2) authorize the Director, Housing and Community Development, to approve reallocation requests of up to $25,000 from|

| |cities participating in the Urban County Community Development Block Grant Program, and (3) provide time extensions for sponsors of two |

| |housing projects to secure additional funding. |

| |FISCAL IMPACT: |

| |Funds for the recommended reallocation are included in the Housing and Community Development 2002-2003 Multi-year Projects Budget. Approval |

| |of the recommended reallocation will reduce the project allocation from $40,000 to $30,000, leaving $10,000 to be reallocated to other |

| |projects. The funding source is the Community Development Block Grant Program. If approved, this request will result in no current year |

| |cost, no annual cost and will require the addition of no staff years. |

| |BUSINESS IMPACT STATEMENT: |

| |The requests will have a positive impact on the business community by providing funds for construction of a public improvement project and |

| |two housing projects. Private construction firms selected through a competitive bid process will implement the funded projects. |

| | |

| |RECOMMENDATION: |

| |CHIEF ADMINISTRATIVE OFFICER |

| |Approve and authorize the reallocation of $30,000 in CDBG funding from the approved FY 2002-03 Shelter Valley Community Center Site |

| |Improvements/Permits Project ($40,000) to the proposed FY 2002-03 Shelter Valley Community Center Expansion Predevelopment Project, which is |

| |located adjacent to the fire station on State Highway 78 in Shelter Valley. |

| |Authorize the Director, Housing and Community Development, to approve reallocation requests of up to $25,000 from cities participating in the|

| |Urban County CDBG Program. |

| |Approve and authorize a time extension, ending July 1, 2003, to Bridge Housing Corporation-Southern California to secure funding for the |

| |Copper Creek Affordable Housing Project, a new 204-unit affordable housing construction project located in San Marcos. |

| |Approve and authorize a time extension, ending July 1, 2003, to the partnership composed of Community HousingWorks (formerly Community |

| |Housing of North County) and North County Solutions for Change to secure funding for the Solutions Family Center, a new 32 unit transitional |

| |housing construction project located in Vista. |

| |Authorize the Director, Housing and Community Development, to extend the deadlines concerning recommendations 3 and 4 above, by up to sixty |

| |days, if the Director determines that such extension is reasonably necessary. |

| |Authorize the publication of any required “Notices to the Public of Request for the Release of Funds” for the recommended projects; authorize|

| |the Director, Housing and Community Development, to execute any Requests for Release of Funds and Certification; direct staff to transmit |

| |these requests to HUD upon completion of any mandatory waiting periods. |

| |Authorize the Director, Department of Housing and Community Development, to execute, with County Counsel concurrence, any contract and/or |

| |amendments, and to take all necessary actions for the submittal and/or regulatory processing for the implementation of the above projects. |

| |ACTION: |

| |ON MOTION of Supervisor Horn, seconded by Supervisor Slater, the Board of Supervisors took action as recommended, on Consent. |

| | |

| |AYES: Cox, Jacob, Slater, Roberts, Horn |

| |

|3. |SUBJECT: |AUTHORIZATION TO INCREASE LOAN AMOUNT OF DOWNPAYMENT AND CLOSING COST ASSISTANCE PROGRAM (DISTRICT: ALL) |

| |OVERVIEW: |

| |The Downpayment and Closing Cost Assistance Program funded by the HOME Investment Partnerships program provided by the United States |

| |Department of Housing and Urban Development provides loans to low-income first-time homebuyers to help pay for their downpayment and closing |

| |costs. This action requests the Board of Supervisors to approve an increase in the maximum loan amount from $10,000 to $35,000. This |

| |requested increase will provide additional financial assistance with increased housing prices in the San Diego area. |

| |FISCAL IMPACT: |

| |Funds for this request are budgeted. For the Downpayment and Closing Cost Assistance Program the funding source will be the HOME Investment |

| |Partnership Program provided by the United States Department of Housing and Urban Development. If approved by the Board, this request could |

| |result in up to $328,051 in current year costs. |

| |BUSINESS IMPACT STATEMENT: |

| |The Downpayment and Closing Cost Assistance Program assists low-income homebuyers in purchasing their first home. These home sales |

| |transactions provide a positive impact to the real estate business community, including real estate brokers, escrow companies, title |

| |insurance companies and real estate lenders. |

| |RECOMMENDATION: |

| |CHIEF ADMINISTRATIVE OFFICER |

| |Approve an increase in the maximum loan amount in the Downpayment and Closing Cost Assistance program from $10,000 to $35,000. |

| |ACTION: |

| |ON MOTION of Supervisor Horn, seconded by Supervisor Slater, the Board of Supervisors took action as recommended, on Consent. |

| | |

| |AYES: Cox, Jacob, Slater, Roberts, Horn |

| |

|4. |SUBJECT: |TRANSFER OF FUNDS FROM REDEVELOPMENT AGENCY TO THE EDUCATIONAL REVENUE AUGMENTATION FUND (DISTRICT: ALL) |

| |OVERVIEW: |

| |Chapter 1127, Statutes of 2002, requires redevelopment agencies to collectively transfer $75 million in property tax increment revenues to |

| |schools and community colleges during fiscal year 2002-03. Additional requirements to facilitate the $75 million transfer include: (1) the |

| |State Department of Finance must determine and notify each redevelopment agency and its legislative body of the amount to be transferred to |

| |that county’s Educational Revenue Augmentation Fund; (2) each agency must allocate the amount to be transferred to the county auditor for |

| |deposit into the Educational Revenue Augmentation Fund on or before May 10, 2003; (3) and, if a redevelopment agency is unable to transfer |

| |the required amount, the county auditor, by no later than May 15, 2003, is required to transfer the amount necessary to meet the obligation |

| |determined for that redevelopment agency from its legislative body’s property tax allocation. |

| | |

| |The County Redevelopment Agency has been notified that its share of the $75 million to be transferred is $60,388. The Redevelopment Agency |

| |has sufficient funds in its FY 2002-03 Budget of $5.1 million to pay for the transfer of funds. The recommendation to approve payment of |

| |$60,388 in Redevelopment Agency funds to the County Auditor and Controller for deposit into the Educational Revenue Augmentation Fund will |

| |implement the requirements of Chapter 1127, Statutes of 2002. |

| |FISCAL IMPACT: |

| |Funds for this recommendation are included in the Redevelopment Agency’s FY 2002-03 Budget. The funding source is property tax increment |

| |revenues from the Gillespie Field and Upper San Diego River Improvement Project Areas. If approved, this request will result in no current |

| |year cost, no annual cost and will require the addition of no staff years. |

| |RECOMMENDATION: |

| |CHIEF ADMINISTRATIVE OFFICER |

| |Approve and authorize the Assistant Executive Director of the County Redevelopment Agency to notify the Auditor and Controller that the |

| |transfer of $60,388 to the Educational Revenue Augmentation Fund will be funded from the Redevelopment Agency’s FY 2002-03 Budget. |

| | |

| |Approve and authorize the payment of $60,388 from the Redevelopment Agency to the Auditor and Controller for deposit into the Educational |

| |Revenue Augmentation Fund. |

| |ACTION: |

| |ON MOTION of Supervisor Horn, seconded by Supervisor Slater, the Board of Supervisors took action as recommended, on Consent. |

| | |

| |AYES: Cox, Jacob, Slater, Roberts, Horn |

| |

| |

|5. |SUBJECT: |LETTER OF INTENT WITH THE CITY OF CHULA VISTA FOR DEVELOPMENT OF A NEW BONITA-SUNNYSIDE LIBRARY (DISTRICT 1) |

| |OVERVIEW: |

| |On December 3, 2002 (13), the Board authorized commencement of preliminary negotiations with the City of Chula Vista to determine the |

| |feasibility of constructing a new Bonita-Sunnyside Library on a City-owned site located adjacent to the Chula Vista Golf Course. Today's |

| |request is for approval of a Letter of Intent, which provides the framework for a future ground lease agreement with the City of Chula Vista,|

| |and for the construction and operation of a new County branch library, which will serve the Bonita-Sunnyside community. The Board is also |

| |asked to amend existing contracts with consultants to conduct site analysis, including environmental assessment, geo-technical testing of |

| |existing soils, and preliminary architectural design services for site planning. |

| |FISCAL IMPACT: |

| |Funds for due diligence and environmental review of the proposed site, estimated at $95,000, are budgeted in KL9540 – Bonita-Sunnyside |

| |Library. |

| |RECOMMENDATION: |

| |CHIEF ADMINISTRATIVE OFFICER |

| |Find, in accordance with Article 18, Section 15262 of the California Environmental Quality Act (CEQA), that approval of a Letter of Intent is|

| |categorically exempt from the provisions of CEQA, as it is legally non-binding and consists solely of planning and feasibility studies for |

| |possible future actions. |

| |Approve and authorize the Clerk of the Board to execute, upon receipt, three copies of the Letter of Intent with the City of Chula Vista. |

| |Authorize the Director, Department of General Services to initiate the due diligence investigation of the proposed Bonita-Sunnyside Library |

| |site, and environmental assessment for the project. |

| |Authorize the Director, Department of General Services, following receipt of satisfactory results from the due diligence investigation of the|

| |site, to negotiate a ground lease with the City of Chula Vista, and return to the Board for approval. |

| |In accordance with Board Policy A-87, authorize the Director, Department of Purchasing and Contracting, to enter into negotiations with |

| |Dominy + Associates Architects to extend existing Contract Number 45648 in an amount not to exceed $50,000, for preliminary architectural |

| |design and related site engineering. |

| |In accordance with Board Policy A-87, authorize the Director, Department of Purchasing and Contracting, to enter into negotiations with BRG |

| |Consulting, Inc., to extend existing Contract Number 44549 in an amount not to exceed $28,000 for environmental assessment of the project |

| |site. |

| |Designate the Director of General Services as the County Officer responsible for administering all awarded contracts. |

| |ACTION: |

| |ON MOTION of Supervisor Horn, seconded by Supervisor Slater, the Board of Supervisors took action as recommended, on Consent. |

| | |

| |AYES: Cox, Jacob, Slater, Roberts, Horn |

| |

|6. |SUBJECT: |PROPOSITION 14 APPLICATIONS (CALIFORNIA READING AND LITERACY IMPROVEMENT AND PUBLIC LIBRARY CONSTRUCTION AND RENOVATION |

| | |BOND ACT OF 2000) FOR A NEW LIBRARY IN FALLBROOK (DISTRICT: 5) |

| |OVERVIEW: |

| |On March 7, 2000, the voters of California approved the California Reading and Literacy Improvement and Public Library Construction and |

| |Renovation Bond Act of 2000 (Proposition 14). The Bond Act provides $350 million in matching funds to build and renovate public libraries |

| |throughout California. On July 31, 2001 (16), the Board of Supervisors authorized County staff to develop Proposition 14 applications for |

| |new, replacement libraries in Campo-Morena Village, Fallbrook and Julian and to work with the cities of Encinitas, La Mesa, Lemon Grove and |

| |Santee to develop operating agreements to support those cities’ applications. Applications submitted for the first application cycle deadline|

| |of June 14, 2002 were for libraries in Campo-Morena Village, Julian, La Mesa, Lemon Grove and Santee. Julian and Lemon Grove received awards.|

| | |

| |On March 19, 2002 (17), as recommended by Supervisor Jacob, the Board directed and authorized the Chief Administrative Officer to proceed |

| |with development of Proposition 14 Bond Act applications, and all supporting documents, for a new, replacement library in the community of |

| |Alpine, returning to the Board for approval no later than March 18, 2003. The second cycle (Round 2) application deadline is March 28, 2003.|

| |The City of La Mesa is reapplying. The City of Santee has decided to not reapply for Round 2, but has indicated a Round 3 application will be|

| |considered. |

| | |

| |Today’s action requests approval of Bond Act applications and supporting documents for a new, replacement library in the community of |

| |Fallbrook. The Alpine project will be submitted in Round 3, in order to allow time for the community to raise the 35% match requirement. |

| |Acceptance of the Julian Bond Act grant will be submitted to the Board of Supervisors on April 29, 2003. |

| |FISCAL IMPACT: |

| |This proposal will result in no current year expenditure. Should the Fallbrook Proposition 14 Bond Act grant applications be awarded, local |

| |matching and supplemental funds, as specified in the project application, would be required. Funds for the construction of this project are |

| |not budgeted. If approved and a grant is awarded, the above recommendations will result in an estimated total project cost, of $7,323,711, |

| |which includes initial start up costs and one year of operations for the Fallbrook Library. Construction costs will be funded at 65% by the |

| |Proposition 14 Bond Act grant and 35% by local match coming from Library Fund, District 5 Community Projects, and private donations. |

| |Operational and startup costs are 100% funded by the Library Fund. No additional staff years are required for this proposal. Staff years |

| |and operational costs are included in the Library Plan of Service, approved by the Board of Supervisors April 4, 2000 (3). Staffing and |

| |operating costs are approved on an annual basis and will be provided during County budget review for the year the new library becomes |

| |operational in FY 2006-07. |

| |RECOMMENDATION: |

| |CHIEF ADMINISTRATIVE OFFICER |

| |Find for the Fallbrook Library project, that the Mitigated Negative Declaration on file in the Department of General Services has been in |

| |compliance with the California Environmental Quality Act and State and County California Environmental Quality Act guidelines, that the |

| |decision-making body has reviewed and considered the information contained therein prior to approving the project, that the Mitigated |

| |Negative Declaration reflects the independent judgment and analysis of the Board of Supervisors. |

| |Find that there are no changes in the project or in the circumstances under which it is undertaken which involve significant new |

| |environmental impacts which were not considered in the previously adopted Mitigated Negative Declaration for the Fallbrook project, or a |

| |substantial increase in the severity of previously identified significant effects, and that no new information of substantial importance has |

| |become available since said Mitigated Negative Declaration was prepared. |

| |Declare County Parcel 2003-0029-A surplus to County needs, subject to Proposition 14 Bond Act funding award. (4 VOTES) |

| |Find that the proposed sale of County Parcel 2003-0029-A is not subject to the environmental assessment process as it is categorically exempt|

| |under Article 19, Section 15312 of the State of California Environmental Quality Act Guidelines as a sale of surplus government property. |

| |Pursuant to Government Code Section 25365, find that the conveyance of County Parcel 2003-0029-A to the Mission Resource Conservation |

| |District involves real property not required for County use, subject to Proposition 14 Bond Act funding award. (4 VOTES) |

| |Authorize the Director, Department of General Services, to perform all necessary actions to complete the sale of County Parcel 2003-0029-A, |

| |including the execution of the Irrevocable Offer to Purchase, escrow instructions, and a Grant Deed, subject to Proposition 14 Bond Act |

| |funding award. |

| |Authorize the Chief Financial Officer, Auditor and Controller, to deposit all proceeds resulting from County’s exercise of the Irrevocable |

| |Offer to Purchase (County Parcel 2003-0029-A) to be credited to the Library Capital Outlay Fund Project KL 1974, Fallbrook Branch Library. |

| |Transfer Appropriations of $252,000 from District 5 Contribution to Community Projects to Contributions to Capital Outlay Fund (Operating |

| |Transfer Out) for the Fallbrook Branch Library project. |

| |Establish Appropriations of $252,000 in the Library Capital Outlay Fund for Capital Project KL1974, Fallbrook Branch Library, based on an |

| |Operating Transfer from the General Fund. |

| |Approve and authorize the Chairman of the Board of Supervisors and the County Library Director to sign the Proposition 14 Bond Act |

| |Application Certification, and all supporting documents for a new, replacement library in the community of Fallbrook, subject to completion |

| |and conformance of all supporting documents, certifying to the accuracy and truthfulness of the application, and approving the application |

| |and agreeing to operate the facility as a public library after completion. |

| |Authorize the Chairman of the Board of Supervisors to sign a Joint Venture Agreement between the County of San Diego and the Fallbrook Union |

| |Elementary School District, to become effective if Proposition 14 funding is secured for a new Fallbrook Branch Library. |

| |Authorize the Chairman of the Board of Supervisors to sign and certify a Resolution agreeing to operate a new Fallbrook Branch Library, to |

| |become effective if Proposition 14 funding is secured. |

| |ACTION: |

| |ON MOTION of Supervisor Horn, seconded by Supervisor Slater, the Board of Supervisors took action as recommended, on Consent, adopting |

| |Resolution No. 03-039, entitled: A RESOLUTION OF THE BOARD OF SUPERVISORS OF THE COUNTY OF SAN DIEGO CERTIFYING PROJECT BUDGET, LOCAL FUNDING|

| |COMMITMENT, SUPPLEMENTAL FUNDS, AND PUBLIC LIBRARY OPERATION. |

|7. |SUBJECT: |PROPOSITION 14 APPLICATIONS (CALIFORNIA READING AND LITERACY IMPROVEMENT AND PUBLIC LIBRARY CONSTRUCTION AND RENOVATION |

| | |BOND ACT OF 2000) FOR NEW LIBRARIES IN THE CITIES OF ENCINITAS AND LA MESA (DISTRICTS: 2 AND 3) |

| |OVERVIEW: |

| |On March 7, 2000, the voters of California approved the California Reading and Literacy Improvement and Public Library Construction and |

| |Renovation Bond Act of 2000 (Proposition 14). The Bond Act provides $350 million in matching funds to build and renovate public libraries |

| |throughout California. On July 31, 2001 (16), the Board of Supervisors authorized County staff to develop Proposition 14 applications for |

| |new, replacement libraries in Campo-Morena Village, Fallbrook and Julian and to work with the cities of Encinitas, La Mesa, Lemon Grove and |

| |Santee to develop operating agreements to support those cities’ applications. Applications submitted for first application cycle deadline of |

| |June 14, 2002 were for libraries in Campo-Morena Village, Julian, La Mesa, Lemon Grove and Santee, with Julian and Lemon Grove receiving |

| |awards. Second cycle application deadline is March 28, 2003. The City of La Mesa is reapplying; the City of Santee has decided not to |

| |reapply for Round 2, but may reconsider reapplication for Round 3. |

| | |

| |Today’s action requests that County staff be authorized to sign Proposition 14 applications prepared by the Cities of Encinitas and La Mesa, |

| |and all required submittal documents and Resolutions to operate these facilities, if Proposition 14 funding is secured. |

| |FISCAL IMPACT: |

| |This proposal will result in no current year expenditure. Funds for construction of these projects are not budgeted. If approved, the above|

| |recommendations will result in an estimated cost of $3,767,723, funded by the Library Fund, with initial operational startup costs of |

| |$469,870 and annual ongoing operating costs of $3,297,853. The request will result in additional staff years in the year the new libraries |

| |complete construction and open for operation, tentatively estimated to be in FY 2006-07. Staff years and operational costs are included in |

| |the Library Plan of Service, approved by the Board of Supervisors April 4, 2000 (3). Staffing and operating costs will be provided during |

| |County budget review in the fiscal year the new libraries become operational. |

| |RECOMMENDATION: |

| |CHIEF ADMINISTRATIVE OFFICER |

| |Find in accordance with section 15096 of the CEQA Guidelines, that the County of San Diego, as a responsible agency under CEQA, has |

| |considered the environmental effects of the project as shown in the Negative Declaration, prepared by the lead agency and dated January 24, |

| |OVERVIEW: |

| |The County owns a 7,170 square-foot parcel in the 2900 block of Bancroft Drive in Spring Valley that was acquired for the expansion of |

|9. |SUBJECT: |COUNTYWIDE DOMESTIC VIOLENCE HOTLINE |

| | |(DISTRICT: ALL) |

| |OVERVIEW: |

| |Domestic violence is a critical problem in San Diego County and across the nation. Domestic violence affects more than 5500 families in San |

| |Diego County annually, often resulting in serious injury or death. Forty percent of abuse victims reported the batterer also abused the |

| |children. A key service for victims of domestic violence is the immediate availability of information regarding where to go for safe |

| |shelter. While there are a number of hotlines providing this information in specific areas of the county, there is currently no countywide |

| |hotline that can direct victims to safe shelter and provide Sheriff deputies and police with up to the minute shelter bed availability, thus |

| |saving time and money. |

| | |

| |Supervisor Pam Slater has been a leader in addressing issues related to domestic violence. Working with Supervisor Slater, representatives |

| |from law enforcement and domestic violence community stakeholders, the Agency has developed a plan and identified funding for implementation |

| |of a countywide domestic violence hotline. Approval of this item will provide authority for a competitive solicitation for the operation of |

| |a countywide domestic violence hotline call center with real-time shelter bed availability. The item also requests sole source procurement |

| |of necessary software. |

| | |

| |This item supports the County’s Strategic Initiative to promote Safe and Livable Communities by enhancing efforts to stop domestic violence |

| |and providing services to victims and their families. |

| |FISCAL IMPACT: |

| |Funds for this proposal are included in the Fiscal Year 2002-03 operational plan. If approved, this request will result in Fiscal Year |

| |2002-03 costs and revenues of $78,334 and subsequent year costs and revenues of $273,800. The funding sources are CalWORKs Incentive Funds |

| |for Fiscal Year 2002-03, and Marriage License Fees for subsequent years. There will be no change in net General Fund cost and no additional |

| |staff years. Funding for these recommendations will not be affected by the proposed State budget. |

| |RECOMMENDATION: |

| |CHIEF ADMINISTRATIVE OFFICER |

| |In accordance with Section 401 of Article XXIII of the County Administrative code, Authorize the Director, Purchasing and Contracting to |

| |issue a competitive solicitation and upon completion of successful negotiations and determination of a fair and reasonable price, negotiate |

| |and award a contract for one year and three option years and up to an additional six months if needed, for the operation of the countywide |

| |domestic violence hotline call center and to amend the contract as needed to reflect changes in service or funding subject to the approval of|

| |the Director, Health and Human Services Agency. |

| |In accordance with Board Policy A-87, Competitive Procurement, approve and authorize the Purchasing and Contracting Director to enter into |

| |negotiations with Bowman Internet LLC; and subject to successful negotiations and determination of a fair and reasonable price, award a |

| |contract for Service Point, an online shelter bed availability internet software. Waive the advertising requirement of Board Policy A-87. |

|10. |SUBJECT: |FAITH IN ACTION: MAXIMIZING FEDERAL SUPPORT FOR SAN DIEGO COUNTY’S FAITH COMMUNITY PARTNERSHIP INITIATIVE (DISTRICT: |

| | |ALL) |

| |OVERVIEW: |

| |In 1998, the County of San Diego, Health and Human Services Agency began the Faith Community Partnership Initiative in response to the |

| |Charitable Choice provisions of the 1996 welfare reform legislation. Charitable Choice originated with the introduction of Sec. 104 in the |

| |personal responsibility and work opportunity reconciliation act of 1996 H.R. 3734. The purpose of Sec. 104 is to allow states to contract |

| |with charitable, religious or private organizations, when the state enters into purchase of service agreements or voucher arrangements with |

| |non-governmental organizations under temporary assistance for needy families (TANF). |

| | |

| |One of the first things President George W. Bush did after taking office in 2001 was to sign an Executive Order giving greater emphasis to |

| |faith-based and community initiatives. On February 18, 2003, the White House Task Force for Faith-Based and Community Initiatives held a |

| |conference with San Diego’s Faith-Based Community Service Organizations. San Diego County has experienced highly successful and demonstrable |

| |outcomes as a result of its Faith Community Partnership Initiative. |

| | |

| |In the 2003 State of the Union address, President George W. Bush expressed support for expanding the faith-based and community initiatives by|

| |asking Congress for four hundred and fifty million dollars to fund social services. The County of San Diego has a proven track record in |

| |partnering with the faith-based community as a means of delivering services. San Diego County was one of the first in the nation to bring |

| |Faith Coordinators on staff to mobilize local faith communities to provide leadership, facilities and resources to meet the many diverse |

| |needs of their communities. |

| | |

| |San Diego County has developed a cutting edge model for delivering services through faith-based and community partnerships. In anticipation |

| |of new Federal funding for faith-based services, the County of San Diego needs the services of a Temporary Expert Professional to develop a |

| |plan for maximizing federal funding and to expand services already offered by the Faith community as well as new services which would |

| |include, but not be limited to such things as Parks and Recreation programs for youth, Libraries, after school programs, support for foster |

| |youth transitioning into independent adulthood, homeless shelters, emergency aide, and domestic violence. The position would be contingent on|

| |securing matching funds from the federal government. This position would be unique as it would be the first of its kind in the nation and |

| |would be responsible for sharing San Diego County’s model with others. |

| | |

| |In this time of budget crisis, the ability to draw down additional federal funding for the delivery of social services is crucial. The State |

| |of California has made deep cuts in the area of Health and Human Services, leaving many children and families without the resources they need|

| |to lift themselves out of poverty and into self-sufficiency. The maximization of federal funding available for faith-based initiatives will |

| |help to ease the loss of state funding and the cutting back of essential services to this population. |

| |FISCAL IMPACT: |

| |There is no fiscal impact associated with this action. |

| |RECOMMENDATION: |

| |SUPERVISOR HORN: |

| |Direct the Chief Administrative Officer to determine a contract amount and identify a funding source for a Temporary Expert Professional |

| |whose responsibilities would include maximizing Faith-based and community initiatives and partnerships, and identify federal funding to |

| |support the initiatives and partnerships, and report back to the Board within sixty days. |

| |ACTION: |

| |ON MOTION of Supervisor Horn, seconded by Supervisor Slater, the Board of Supervisors directed the Chief Administrative Officer to explore |

| |the possibility of receiving federal funds and return to the Board when funds are available, on Consent. |

|11. |SUBJECT: |COMPETITIVE PROCUREMENT FOR ADVANCED LIFE SUPPORT AMBULANCE SERVICES IN THE JULIAN SERVICE AREA (DISTRICT: 2) |

| |OVERVIEW: |

| |On May 13, 1997 (7), the Board approved funds in the amount of $206,000 to subsidize Advanced Life Support ambulance services in the rural |

| |north county communities. Included in the funding was a subsidy of $68,667 for the Julian service area. At the same time, the Board |

| |authorized the Department of Purchasing and Contracting to issue a Request for Proposals and award a contract for the Julian service area for|

| |the period October 1, 1997 through September 30, 1999 with four renewal option years ending September 30, 2003. A contract was subsequently |

| |awarded to Julian-Cuyamaca Fire Protection District to provide Advanced Life Support ambulance services. In addition to the $68,667 annual |

| |subsidy, the County provides two ambulances, including fuel and maintenance. This contract will expire on September 30, 2003. |

| | |

| |Today’s action requests the Board to authorize the Department of Purchasing and Contracting to issue competitive solicitation for a contract |

| |to provide Advanced Life Support ambulance services for the Julian Service Area. A county subsidy of $68,677, two ambulances with fuel and |

| |maintenance will be provided to the contractor. |

| | |

| |This item supports the Safe and Livable Communities Initiative in the County’s Strategic Plan, which seeks to assure the availability of |

| |emergency medical services to all county residents. |

| |FISCAL IMPACT: |

| |Funds for this item are included in the Health and Human Services Agency’s FY 2003-04 Operational Plan. If approved, this will result in FY |

| |2003-04 and subsequent annual costs of $68,667. The funding source is Health Realignment Funds. There will be no change in net General Fund|

| |cost and no additional staff years. |

| |RECOMMENDATION: |

| |CHIEF ADMINISTRATIVE OFFICER |

| |In accordance with Section 401, Article XXIII, of the County Administrative Code, authorize the Director, Department of Purchasing and |

| |Contracting, to issue a competitive solicitation and, upon successful negotiations and determination of a fair and reasonable price, to award|

| |a contract for Advanced Life Support ambulance services in the Julian service area for the period October 1, 2003 through September 30, 2007 |

| |with renewal options for two additional two-year periods ending September 30, 2011, and up to an additional six months, if needed, and to |

| |amend the contract to reflect changes in funding allocation and/or required services, subject to the approval of the Director, Health and |

| |Human Services Agency. |

|12. |SUBJECT: |SUNSET REVIEW OF BOARD POLICY E-10, COMPREHENSIVE SOCIAL SERVICE SYSTEM (DISTRICT: ALL) |

| |OVERVIEW: |

| |In accordance with Board Policy A-76, Sunset Review, the Health and Human Services Agency periodically reviews certain Board policies to |

| |of Supervisors approved the extension of the review of Board Policy E-10, Comprehensive Social Service System, through March 31, 2003. The |

| |review has been completed and, based on this sunset review process, Board of Supervisors’ approval is requested for amendments to update |

| |Board Policy E-10. |

| | |

| |The policy amended by this item supports the County’s Strategic Initiatives to improve opportunities for children and promote safe and |

| |livable communities by setting policy direction that health and social services shall be delivered in an outcome-driven, integrated, |

| |efficient and effective manner, designed to support healthy, safe and thriving communities. |

| | |

| |This item supports the Safe and Livable Communities Initiative of the County’s Strategic Plan by placing a priority on healthy behaviors, |

| |disease surveillance, preventive care and access to a full range of services. |

| |FISCAL IMPACT: |

| |The FY 2002-2003 Operational Plan for the Health and Human Services Agency includes $2,000 based on Centers for Disease Control and |

| |Prevention. If approved, this item will result in no change to net General Fund costs and no additional staff years in the Health and Human |

| |Services Agency, Public Health Services budget. |

| |RECOMMENDATION: |

| |CHIEF ADMINISTRATIVE OFFICER |

| |Authorize out-of-country business to Cuernavaca, or an alternate site in Mexico, for Public Health Services staff to attend the Annual |

| |America is in the crosshairs of international terrorists. On February 11, 2003, CIA Director George Tenet and FBI Director Robert Mueller |

| |gave ominous warnings to Congressional leaders of possible new attacks in the United States and on the Arabian Peninsula. Tenet said the |

| |threat was “the most specific we have seen.” |

| | |

| |After September 11, 2001, when 3,000 Americans were killed in an attack on the United States, President Bush responded to threats against |

| |America and our allies with resolve and decisive action. Many of the military troops first sent to the Middle East in Operation Enduring |

| |Freedom were from San Diego County. Today those valiant American men and women have been joined by thousands of others from San Diego County.|

| |FISCAL IMPACT: |

| |None |

| |RECOMMENDATION: |

| |SUPERVISOR HORN: |

| |Approve the Resolution in support of President George W. Bush and our military troops as the President leads our nation through the world |

| |crisis. |

|17. |SUBJECT: |SECOND QUARTER REPORT ON ESTIMATED RESULTS OF OPERATIONS FOR FISCAL YEAR ENDING JUNE 30, 2003 |

| | |(DISTRICT: ALL) |

| |OVERVIEW: |

| |This report summarizes my second quarter estimate of the County’s current financial position and makes recommendations for investment of |

| |one-time funds and budget adjustments for various County departments. Despite the uncertainty surrounding the State budget for Fiscal Year |

| |2003-04, the County of San Diego continues to pursue the Board of Supervisors’ priorities as adopted in the Operational Plan for Fiscal Years|

| |2002-03 and 2003-04. Our County staff continues to manage resources prudently to pursue Board directed activities to provide livable/safe |

| |communities, enhance the lives of kids and protect the environment. |

| | |

| | |

| |The good news is that I expect the County to end the year with a positive fund balance. The bad news is that the State’s budget deficit for |

| |this fiscal year and next combined is estimated to be between $26.5 and $34.6 billion. The State’s lack of financial management will impact |

| |all cities and counties in California over the next few years. Discussions continue in Sacramento and up and down the State regarding how to|

| |balance the State’s budget for the remainder of this year and the coming budget year, but no solutions have begun to gel. It is conceivable |

| |that the County will lose some of its General Purpose Revenues and likely that it will lose specific State program revenues. Despite this |

| |uncertainty, it is important for the County to maintain a long-range strategic view and to take actions accordingly. While many of the |

| |recommendations before you today pertain to technical adjustments to the budget, there are a number that request investment of a portion of |

| |our one-time resources for one-time improvements for our communities, kids, and environment, to ensure the ongoing sustainability of our |

| |enterprise resource planning system and to manage the long term debt obligations of the County. |

| |FISCAL IMPACT: |

| |The funds for this request are not budgeted. If approved, these actions will establish total new appropriations of $53,476,724. These |

| |actions will also cancel budgeted appropriations and the related sources of funding in the amount of $11,795,438, resulting in a net increase|

| |in appropriations of $41,681,286. |

| |RECOMMENDATION: |

| |CHIEF ADMINISTRATIVE OFFICER |

| |Waive Board Policy A-91, Mid-Year Budget Changes. |

| |Approve the allocation of up to $50 million in one-time resources in the CAO’s Proposed Operational Plan for Fiscal Years 2003-05 to |

| |school-aged children and their families by enabling parents and caretakers to use the National School Lunch Program (NSLP) application as an |

| |application for Medi-Cal. |

| | |

| |AB 59 authorizes improved information sharing between the NSLP and Medi-Cal, with the parents consent. The State Departments of Education |

| |and Health Services are responsible for developing AB 59 implementation guidelines for counties and school districts. Counties must develop |

| |their own procedures for processing Medi-Cal requests for children determined eligible for free lunch. This process must include determining|

| |express enrollment eligibility, activating the Medi-Cal record so the child may receive immediate services and evaluating for ongoing |

| |eligibility. |

|25. |SUBJECT: |SUPPORT FOR AB 1368 (KEHOE): BOND ACCOUNTABILITY MEASURES (DISTRICT: ALL) |

| |OVERVIEW: |

| |Currently, State law requires prescribed accountability measures for local bonds, however this obligation does not extend to State bonds. AB|

| |1368 would require all bonds passed by the State to contain specified accountability measures, requiring each project to be fully funded and |

| |to provide an annual report to the Legislature and the Department of Finance. |

| | |

| |Additionally, each bond measure would be required to submit a statement of purpose, apply funding only to meet its purpose and only for |

| |projects initially authorized to receive funding. |

| |RECOMMENDATION: |

| |CHAIRMAN COX: |

| |Direct the Chief Administrative Officer to draft letters for the Chairman’s signature to the Governor and the San Diego delegation in support|

| |of AB 1368. |

| |

|26. |SUBJECT: |MATCHING FUNDS FOR AGNET GRANT (DISTRICT: ALL) |

| |OVERVIEW: |

| |After meetings with U. S. Senator Dianne Feinstein’s office concerning agricultural crime and prosecution, this is a request for matching |

| |monies for a substantial grant to fund a one-year pilot project. The pilot project would consist of one senior agricultural inspector to |

| |work with the Sheriff’s Department, a Sheriff’s special assistant position that would focus on agricultural crime. The grant would also |

| |provide for one half year of clerical support and a half-year of deputy district attorney support. I am requesting a $200,000 match |

| |contingent upon the proposed $2,000,000 grant. |

| |FISCAL IMPACT: |

| |$200,000 this Fiscal Year. No new staff will be added. |

| |BUSINESS IMPACT STATEMENT: |

| |This grant would provide protection for San Diego County’s 1.2 billion dollar agricultural community. |

| |RECOMMENDATION: |

| |SUPERVISOR HORN: |

| |Direct the Chief Administrative Officer to identify the appropriate funding to provide the $200,000 match necessary to fund this grant. |

| |It is my recommendation that we approve $200,000 for grant money match out of this year’s budget contingent upon anticipated federal grant |

| |funding. |

| |ACTION: |

| |ON MOTION of Supervisor Horn, seconded by Supervisor Slater, the Board of Supervisors took action as recommended, on Consent. |

| | |

| |AYES: Cox, Jacob, Slater, Roberts, Horn |

| |

| |

|27. |SUBJECT: |ALLOCATION OF COMMUNITY PROJECTS FUNDS (DISTRICT: 5) |

| |OVERVIEW: |

| |The opportunity to reinvest taxpayer money back into our communities is of great benefit to all of San Diego County. This action today will |

| |assist three non-profit organizations in providing for the welfare and well being of North County families, businesses and Camp Pendleton |

| |dependents. |

| |FISCAL IMPACT: |

| |The cost of the proposed recommendation totals $15,154.00. The funding source is Community Projects Budget (0265). This action will result |

| |in the addition of no staff years and no future costs. |

| |RECOMMENDATION: |

| |SUPERVISOR HORN: |

| |Allocate $4,000.00 from Community Projects (0265) to Fallbrook Community Projects for refrigeration appliances. |

| |Allocate $6,654.00 from Community Projects (0265) to So Kids Can Dream for the reprinting of the Kid’s & Parent’s Directory. |

| |Allocate $4,500.00 from Community Projects (0265) to the Bonsall Chamber of Commerce for furniture and equipment for the new chamber offices.|

| |Authorize the Chief Financial Officer to execute grant agreements with these organizations, establishing terms for receipt of the funds as |

| |described above. |

| |Find that the allocations listed above will benefit the public. |

| |

|28. |SUBJECT: |KEEPING KIDS SAFE: EXPANDING MEGAN’S LAW DATABASE ONLINE (DISTRICT: ALL) |

| |OVERVIEW: |

| |On March 12, 2002 the Board of Supervisors took action to increase the availability of Megan’s Law information to San Diego County residents.|

| |As a result of the Board’s direction, a countywide pin map has been made available to the public and additional Sheriff facilities offered |

| |public access to Megan’s Law information on computer terminals. |

| |One of the recommendations in the Board action was to explore the feasibility of setting up a secure and restricted web site that will allow |

| |only San Diego County residents to access sex offender information online. Unfortunately, it was determined that only the State of |

| |California has the legal authority to make the Megan’s Law database available to the public over the Internet. |

| | |

| |Recent decisions by the United States Supreme Court have cleared the way for the State of California to move forward with increasing the |

| |amount of information in the Megan’s Law database and making the information available to the public on the Internet. |

| |FISCAL IMPACT: |

| |There is no fiscal impact associated with this request. |

| |RECOMMENDATION: |

| |VICE CHAIRWOMAN JACOB AND CHAIRMAN COX: |

| |Direct the Chief Administrative Officer to draft a letter for the Chairman’s signature, requesting our local State Delegation to introduce |

| |and support County sponsored legislation to change State law so that the Megan’s Law database contains the same information as the Alaska sex|

| |offender registry, and to make that information available to the public over the internet. |

| |ACTION: |

| |ON MOTION of Supervisor Horn, seconded by Supervisor Slater, the Board of Supervisors took action as recommended, on Consent. |

| | |

| |AYES: Cox, Jacob, Slater, Roberts, Horn |

| |

| |

|29. |SUBJECT: |A COMMUNITY PROFILE FOR ALPINE (DISTRICT: 2) |

| |OVERVIEW: |

| |Today’s action will grant funds to the Alpine Chamber of Commerce to complete a community profile, which will provide them with valuable |

| |information about Alpine’s resources, demographics, community goals, and community development. |

| |FISCAL IMPACT: |

| |The fiscal impact of the proposed recommendation is $25,000. The funding source is FY 2002-2003 District Two Community Projects (Org. 0262).|

| |RECOMMENDATION: |
