|1. |SUBJECT: |FLIGHT TRAINING NATIONAL SECURITY ORDINANCE (DISTRICT: ALL) |

| |OVERVIEW: |

| |Request that the federal government carry out nationwide identity verification and background checks to be performed on any person applying to |

| |attend a flight school based at any airport, including county airports. |

| | |

| |The federal government has adopted regulations to require identification checks for flight schools training pilots to fly large commercial |

| |aircraft. But these regulations do not reach general aviation airports serving aircraft weighing 12,500 pounds or less. This request for |

| |identity and background checks addresses that gap. A federal program should be adopted to institute a straight-forward identity/background check|

| |of student applicants to flight schools to ensure the safety and well-being of our citizens. This does not hinder business. In fact, a federal |

| |program to check identities and backgrounds of student applicants to flight schools would help to protect the reputation of flight schools |

| |seeking to efficiently provide flight training. |

| |FISCAL IMPACT: |

| |This ordinance will have no financial impact on the county. |

| |RECOMMENDATION: |

| |SUPERVISOR SLATER: |

| |Direct the Chief Administrative Officer and County Counsel to draft a letter for the signature of the Chairman of the Board of Supervisors to |

| |the members of the San Diego Congressional Delegation to pursue legislation to require prospective flight school student pilots, prior to |

| |enrollment in a flight school at any airport across the nation, to submit an application for a background check and verification of |

| |identification to the appropriate federal agency or department for review. Given the urgency of this matter, direct the Chief Administrative |

| |Officer to draft this letter within 30 days. |

| |Request that the San Diego County Sheriff also ask the San Diego Congressional Delegation to carry legislation to direct the appropriate |

| |department of the federal government to require and carry out background checks and verification of identification of prospective flight school |

| |student pilots. |

| |Request in the letter to the members of the Congressional Delegation that the appropriate department of the federal government fund and carry |

| |out every facet of the background check and verification of identification program, including, but not limited to; design and creation of an |

| |application for verification of identification and background check for prospective flight school student pilots planning to enroll in a flight |

| |school at any airport; and all identification and background investigation on student pilots. |

| |Direct the Chairman of the Board of Supervisors to write a letter to the Airport Authority, the San Diego Unified Port District and all eighteen|

| |cities asking them to write a letter to the members of the San Diego Congressional Delegation asking for support of our request to carry |

| |legislation to ask the appropriate federal department to carry out a background check and verification of identification program for prospective|

| |flight school student pilots. |

| |ACTION: |

| |Changing recommendation 4 to read: “Direct the County’s Legislative Staff to add the flight training national security ordinance to the |

| |County’s Legislative sponsorship program and to work with lobbyist in Washington D.C. to find a sponsor,” ON MOTION of Supervisor Horn, seconded|

| |by Supervisor Jacob the Board of Supervisors took action as recommended, on Consent. |

| |all of San Diego County. This action today will assist four non-profit organizations in providing for the welfare and well being of our senior |

| |citizens, our disabled citizens and those families in need of emergency assistance. |

| |FISCAL IMPACT: |

| |The cost of the proposed recommendation totals $145,000.00 The funding source is Community Project budget (0265). This action will result in |

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

| |RECOMMENDATION: |

|4. |SUBJECT: |THE COUNTY OF SAN DIEGO’S COMMITMENT TO CLEAN WATER (DISTRICT: ALL) |

| |OVERVIEW: |

| |The County of San Diego has proven to be a leader in protecting our region’s watersheds and water resources. Today’s action will express our |

| |Board’s continued commitment to practical solutions to clean water and the goals of the stormwater permit, and our desire to seek changes in the|

| |permit that establish science-based, environmentally-beneficial, cost-effective and results-oriented approaches to protecting our watersheds and|

| |water resources. |

| |FISCAL IMPACT: |

| |RECOMMENDATION: |

| |VICE CHAIRWOMAN JACOB AND SUPERVISOR ROBERTS |

| |Approve the resolution, “A Resolution of the Board of Supervisors of the County of San Diego, California, Stating Its Commitment to Clean |

| |Water.” |

| | |

| |Direct the Chief Administrative Officer to write a letter to the San Diego Regional Water Quality Control Board expressing our Board’s intention|

| |to continue to seek practical solutions to clean water and science-based, environmentally-beneficial, cost-effective and results-oriented |

| |approaches to protecting our watersheds and water resources, and to do so through all methods at our disposal. |

| |Plescia the County’s desire for the following amendment to Assembly Bill 1517: |

| |It is the intent of the Legislature to enact legislation that would foster science-based, environmentally beneficial, results-oriented and |

| |cost-effective water quality programs that draw on the strengths of municipalities that administer stormwater permits and the state and regional|

| |water quality control boards. In particular the legislature intends to address the following issues: |

| |Utilization of current science and local data when setting water quality objective in watershed basin plans; |

| |Identification and abatement of sources of stormwater pollution; |

| |Increased local flexibility in the use of local resources to manage stormwater and improve or maintain water quality; and |

|6. |SUBJECT: |GROSSMONT-CUYAMACA COMMUNITY COLLEGE DISTRICT GENERAL OBLIGATION BONDS, ELECTION OF 2002, SERIES 2003A (DISTRICT: ALL)|

| |OVERVIEW: |

| |On November 5, 2002, an election was held in the Grossmont-Cuyamaca Community College District (the “District”). At such election, there was |

| |submitted to, and approved by, more than the requisite 55 percent of the voters, the issuance and sale in the maximum principal amount of |

| |$207,000,000 of general obligation bonds, for various purposes set forth in the ballot submitted to the voters. The bonds will be repaid from |

| |the levy of an ad valorem tax against the taxable property in the District. |

| |At this time, the governing board of the District (the “District Board”) requests the County Board to issue a first series of such bonds in an |

| |aggregate principal amount of not to exceed $55,000,000 (the “Bonds”), designated as “Grossmont-Cuyamaca Community College District, San Diego |

| |County, California, General Obligation Bonds, Election of 2002, Series 2003A.” After the issuance of the Bonds, approximately $152,000,000 of |

| |the authorization will remain. |

| |FISCAL IMPACT: |

| |These bonds are general obligations of the District to be paid from ad valorem property taxes and do not constitute an obligation of the County.|

| |RECOMMENDATION: |

| |CHIEF ADMINISTRATIVE OFFICER AND DEBT ADVISORY COMMITTEE |

| |Adopt the resolution authorizing the issuance and sale of Grossmont-Cuyamaca Community College District, General Obligation Bonds, 2002 Election|

|7. |SUBJECT: |APPROPRIATIONS TRANSFER: PROPERTY TAX SYSTEM REQUIREMENTS ANALYSIS (DISTRICT: ALL) |

| |OVERVIEW: |

| |The initial Information Technology & Telecommunications Service Agreement (“Agreement”) with Computer Sciences Corporation (“CSC”) included the |

| |implementation of a new Property Tax System. This requirement was eliminated from the “Agreement” by May 9, 2000 Board action because no |

| |commercial off the shelf (COTS) Property Tax System was available. Although the contract requirement was eliminated, the need for a new system |

| |remained, and the County has since been working to develop a plan for system acquisition and deployment. The first step, the completion of a |

| |system requirements analysis is currently underway. This effort is being coordinated and managed by the County Technology Office, and will be |

| |jointly funded by the Auditor and Controller, Assessor/Recorder/County Clerk, and the Treasurer/Tax Collector. The transfer of appropriations |

| |needed to fund this endeavor is included in this request. |

| |FISCAL IMPACT: |

| |The transfer of appropriations from the Auditor and Controller, the Assessor/Recorder/County Clerk, and the Treasurer/Tax Collector to the |

| |County Technology Office results in no net increase in appropriations. |

| | |

| |RECOMMENDATION: |

| |CHIEF ADMINISTRATIVE OFFICER, ASSESSOR/RECORDER/COUNTY CLERK, TREASURER/TAX COLLECTOR |

| |Transfer appropriations of $82,000 from the Auditor and Controller, $82,000 from the Assessor/Recorder/County Clerk, and $82,000 from the |

| |Treasurer/Tax Collector to the County Technology Office for the completion of the Property Tax System requirements analysis. |

| |ACTION: |

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

| | |

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

| | | |

| | | |

|8. |SUBJECT: |AMENDMENTS TO THE COMPENSATION ORDINANCE (DISTRICT: ALL) |

| |OVERVIEW: |

| |This action amends the San Diego County Compensation Ordinance by: 1) amending section 1.4.3, Advancement Within Range, by clarifying or |

| |removing obsolete language in this section; and 2) establishing compensation, class characteristics, and retitling specific classifications. |

| |FISCAL IMPACT: |

| |Funds for these recommendations are budgeted in the 2002-2003 adopted budget. |

| |RECOMMENDATION: |

| |CHIEF ADMINISTRATIVE OFFICER |

| |Approve introduction (first reading) of ordinances; read title and waive further reading of ordinances (MAJORITY VOTE): |

| | |

| |AN ORDINANCE AMENDING THE COMPENSATION ORDINANCE AND ESTABLISHING AUTHORIZED CLASSIFICATION CHARACTERISTICS, AND COMPENSATION. |

| | |

| |Submit ordinances for further Board consideration and adoption (second reading) on April 8, 2003. |

| |ACTION: |

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

| |Ordinance for further Board consideration on April 8, 2003. |

| | |

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

| | | |

| | | |

|9. |SUBJECT: |REENGINEERING OF THE DEPARTMENT OF PURCHASING AND CONTRACTING AND OUTSOURCING CENTRAL STORES (DISTRICT: ALL) |

| |OVERVIEW: |

| |On February 12, 2002 (23), the Board authorized the Director of Purchasing & Contracting to negotiate and award contracts for office supplies |

| |and paper products. The outsourcing of Central Stores with “just-in-time” programs will allow for considerable cost savings countywide. |

| |Implementation of the “just-in-time” contracts resulted in freeing up valuable warehouse space and reducing staffing requirements, allowing |

| |better utilization of these resources. |

| | |

| |The major components of this reengineering plan are to dissolve Central Stores and respective administrative codes, reorganize department |

| |structure and eliminate three (3) budgeted positions. Recommended actions in this letter will be implemented on May 16, 2003. The Department of|

| |Human Resources is providing a comprehensive array of services to successfully place individuals in alternate positions throughout the County. |

| |FISCAL IMPACT: |

| |If approved, this action will result in current year reduction of 0.38 staff years and $2,020,916 in costs, and ongoing reduction of 3.00 staff |

| |years and $5,197,700 in costs associated with facility occupancy, utilities, and fleet maintenance in the Department of Purchasing and |

| |Contracting. Annual savings of approximately $575,000 will be realized county-wide for paper and food products. |

| |BUSINESS IMPACT STATEMENT: |

| |This proposal will have a positive impact on the business community by increasing opportunities for commercial suppliers to provide additional |

| |commodities to the County. The dissolution of Central Stores provides significant cost savings and achieves countywide reduction mandates. |

| |RECOMMENDATION: |

| |CHIEF ADMINISTRATIVE OFFICER |

| |Approve the deletion of three (3) positions in the Department of Purchasing and Contracting, and authorize the Department of Human Resources to |

| |amend the Compensation Ordinance by deleting authorized positions, which are filled and may result in the layoff of employees. |

| | |

| |Approve the introduction of the Ordinance (first reading), read title, and waive further reading of the Ordinance. |

| | |

| |AN ORDINANCE REPEALING SECTIONS 409, 415 AND 417 OF THE SAN DIEGO COUNTY ADMINISTRATIVE CODE RELATING TO PURCHASING AND CONTRACTING’S REVOLVING |

| |FUND, REQUISITIONED ARTICLES TO BE FURNISHED FROM STORES OR PURCHASES, AND REQUISITIONS OF DIRECTOR OF PURCHASING AND CONTRACTING’S STORES. |

| | |

| |Submit the Ordinance for further Board consideration and adoption (second reading) on April 8, 2003. |

| | | |

|10. |SUBJECT: |ANNUAL UNIT PRICE FLOORING CONTRACT FOR FY 2003-04 (DISTRICT: ALL) |

| |OVERVIEW: |

| |The County of San Diego has awarded annual unit-price contracts for flooring since FY 1992-93. Unit price contracts are appropriate for |

| |routine, repetitive construction projects with specifications applicable to a large number of individual projects. On February 12, 2002 (8), |

| |the Board authorized the advertisement and award of a contract for "Unit Price" flooring for FY 2002-03. The recommended action will authorize |

| |the Director of Purchasing and Contracting to advertise and award an annual unit-price requirements contract for flooring for FY 2003-04. |

| |FISCAL IMPACT: |

| |There are no initial costs or staff years associated with this action, as contract costs will be incurred only when actual services are provided|

| |per departmental requests. Costs for the services will be encumbered and paid directly by the requesting departments. The recommended action |

| |will establish, as needed, unit price requirements contracts for routine flooring, such as carpet and vinyl tile. The total anticipated costs |

| |for flooring during the next contractual period, FY 2003-04, are estimated at $430,000. Planning, estimating, scope development, and |

| |installation oversight/coordination will be performed by the Department of General Services’ Facilities Operations’ staff with no additional |

| |annual costs and no additional staff years anticipated as a result of this action. |

| |RECOMMENDATION: |

| |CHIEF ADMINISTRATIVE OFFICER |

| |Find that this project is categorically exempt in accordance with section 15301(d) of the California Environmental Quality Act (CEQA) as it |

| |consists of minor alterations to existing facilities. |

| |Authorize the Director, Department of the Purchasing and Contracting, to take any action authorized by Section 404 of the Administrative Code |

| |with respect to contracting for an annual unit price flooring contract. |

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

| |ACTION: |

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

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

| | | |

| | | |

|11. |SUBJECT: |APPOINTMENT OF TENANT COMMISSIONERS TO THE HOUSING AUTHORITY OF THE COUNTY OF SAN DIEGO BOARD OF COMMISSIONERS |

| | |(DISTRICT: ALL) |

| |OVERVIEW: |

| |The recommended action will approve the appointment of two tenant commissioners to the Housing Authority of the County of San Diego (HACSD) |

| |Board of Commissioners (Board) for a two-year term beginning June 1, 2003. |

| | |

| |The HACSD Board is responsible for governing programs administered by the HACSD, including the Section 8 Rental Assistance Program. As a part |

| |of the Board, the two tenant commissioners provide a formal mechanism for customer involvement in the policies and practices of programs |

| |administered by the HACSD. In addition, these tenant commissioners provide a vital link between the HACSD and the population it serves. On |

| |October 4, 1977 (103), the Board of Supervisors approved the increase in the Board from five members to seven with the addition of two tenant |

| |commissioners. |

| |FISCAL IMPACT: |

| |There is no fiscal impact. This request will result in no current year costs, no annual costs, and will require no additional staff years. |

| |RECOMMENDATION: |

| |CHIEF ADMINISTRATIVE OFFICER |

| |Appoint Joann Orozco and Lilia Ramirez to serve as tenant commissioners to the HACSD Board for a two-year term beginning June 1, 2003. |

| |ACTION: |

| |ON MOTION of Supervisor Horn, seconded by Supervisor Jacob, the Board of Supervisors withdrew this item at the request of the Chief |

| |Administrative Officer, on Consent. |

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

| | | |

| | | |

|12. |SUBJECT: |CHILDRENS SERVICES DATA REFRESH (DISTRICT: ALL) |

| |OVERVIEW: |

| |The Child Welfare Services/Case Management System is a statewide, automated child welfare case management system developed to meet federal and |

| |State requirements for the reporting of child welfare information. Each county must use this mandated system developed by IBM Global Services. |

| |In July 2000, the Health and Human Services Agency entered into a sole source contract to obtain data for our local database. The data is |

| |proprietary and can only be obtained from IBM Global Services. County-specific data is used for development of statistical management reports |

| |needed for effective program planning and administration. |

| | |

| |Today’s item requests that the Board of Supervisors authorize the Director, Department of Purchasing and Contracting to enter into negotiations,|

| |and upon successful negotiations extend and amend the current IBM Global Services agreement for data refresh and ongoing support through June |

| |30, 2008. |

| | |

| |This item supports the Kids Initiative of the County’s Strategic Plan by using technology to provide accurate child welfare data to the County |

| |and community agencies providing child welfare services. |

| |FISCAL IMPACT: |

| |Funds for this proposal are included in the Fiscal Year 2003-2004 approved Operational Plan. If approved, this request will result in no change|

| |in that year’s cost and revenue of $37,436 and subsequent year cost and revenue of $37,436. The funding source is the County Expense Claim. |

| |There will be no change in net General Fund costs and no additional staff years. This agreement is subject to satisfactory performance and |

| |availability of funds. The current State budget will have no negative impact on funding for this agreement. |

| |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 International Business Machines Global Services, and subject to successful negotiations and determination of a fair|

| |and reasonable price, amend the agreement (current year PO #52361) for the data refresh to continue the term of the agreement for two years and |

| |three option periods through June 30, 2008, with up to an additional six months if needed, subject to approval of the Director of the Health and|

| |Human Services Agency. |
