|1. |SUBJECT: |SHERIFF’S DEPARTMENT REQUEST FOR THE PROCUREMENT OF HOSPITAL, ON-SITE SICK CALL AND SPECIALTY MEDICAL SERVICES |

| | |(DISTRICT: ALL) |

| |OVERVIEW: |

| |The Sheriff’s Department provides comprehensive health care services to inmates in custody at seven detention facilities throughout San |

| |Diego County. Inmates are treated within each facility during scheduled sick call hours, while hospital services are used for inmates |

| |who cannot be treated on site. The Sheriff staffs and maintains medical infirmaries in six of the seven facilities. On-site medical |

| |services are required at the San Diego Central Jail (SDCJ) and the Las Colinas, George Bailey, South Bay and Descanso detention |

| |facilities. George Bailey and East Mesa detention facilities share the infirmary located at George Bailey. These services are |

| |currently being provided by University of California, San Diego Medical Center (UCSD-MC) under the Fourth Operating Agreement that |

| |expires June 30, 2006. Vista Detention Facility has an existing on-site specialty medical services contract until December 31, 2008 |

| |through another provider. |

| |This is a request to grant an exemption from competitive procurement pursuant to Board Policy A-87 and execute a contract with UCSD-MC |

| |to provide emergency and non-emergency inpatient hospital and on-site sick call and specialty medical services to inmates in the |

| |Sheriff’s detention facilities. |

| |FISCAL IMPACT: |

| |Funds for this request are included in the CAO Proposed Fiscal Year 2006-08 Operational Plan. If approved, this request will result in |

| |an estimated annual cost of $9,000,000 in FY 2006-07 and $9,450,000 in FY 2007-08. The estimated total cost will be $61,217,215 over a |

| |period of six years and will not require the addition of staff years. |

| |RECOMMENDATION: |

| |SHERIFF |

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

| |Contracting to enter into negotiations with UCSD-MC and subject to successful negotiations and determination of a fair and reasonable |

| |price, execute a contract effective July 1, 2006 for emergency and non-emergency inpatient hospital, and on-site sick call, and |

| |specialty medical services at the Sheriff’s Detention Facilities for one year with five one-year option periods through June 30, 2012, |

| |and an additional six months if needed, and to amend the contract as needed to reflect annual schedule of fees adjustments and changes |

| |to services and funding, subject to approval of the Sheriff. Waive the advertising requirement of Board Policy A-87. |

| |ACTION: |

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

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

| |

|2. |SUBJECT: |HIV EDUCATION AND PREVENTION SERVICES – STATE FUNDING FOR SEXUALLY TRANSMITTED DISEASE PROGRAM (DISTRICT: ALL) |

| |OVERVIEW: |

| |Since July 1, 1996, the County of San Diego has received funding from the State Department of Health Services for the provision of HIV |

| |education and prevention services. On August 17, 2004 (5) the Board authorized a one-time revenue agreement with the State Department |

| |of Health Services’ Sexually Transmitted Disease (STD) Control Branch for a project to address prevention of STDs and HIV/AIDS among a |

| |targeted at-risk population. The original agreement with the State ended December 31, 2005. Due to the increase in the number of |

| |syphilis and HIV cases in high risk populations, the State has proposed to continue the project for an additional three years, through |

| |December 31, 2008. |

| |Today’s request is to authorize the Clerk of the Board to execute a new revenue agreement for three years of funding from the California|

| |Department of Health Services Sexually Transmitted Disease (STD) Control Branch to address STDs among a targeted at-risk population. |

| |The amount is $45,000 each year, for a total of $135,000. These funds will support the existing contracted HIV and STD education and |

| |prevention program. |

| |FISCAL IMPACT: |

| |Funds for this request will be included in the CAO’s Proposed Operational Plan for Fiscal Years 2006-08 for the Health and Human |

| |Services Agency. If approved, this proposal would result in $45,000 for each year of the proposed FY 2006-08 Operational Plans, and |

| |$45,000 in the subsequent year, for a total of $135,000 from the California Department of Health Services Sexually Transmitted Disease |

| |(STD) Control Branch.  There will be no increase in General Fund cost and no additional staff years. |

| |RECOMMENDATION: |

| |CHIEF ADMINISTRATIVE OFFICER |

| |Waive Board Policy B-29, Fees, Grants, Revenue Contracts-Department Responsibility for Cost Recovery. |

| |Ratify and authorize the Clerk of the Board of Supervisors to execute upon receipt a Revenue Agreement with the California Department of|

| |Health Services, STD Control Branch in the amount of $135,000 effective January 1, 2006 to December 31, 2008. |

| |ACTION: |

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

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

| |

|3. |SUBJECT: |BUSINESS PROCESS RE-ENGINEERING - MOBILE REMOTE WORKFORCE INNOVATION (DISTRICT: ALL) |

| |OVERVIEW: |

| |As part of the County’s continuing commitment to business innovation through the General Management System, the Health and Human |

| |Services Agency (HHSA), in collaboration with the Chief Technology Office, developed a Mobile Remote Workforce (MRW) pilot project to |

| |improve the delivery of health services to at-risk children and their families. Through the use of business process re-engineering, a |

| |web-based referral system and remote hand-held technology, the MRW pilot significantly increased the number of at-risk families with |

| |newborns, infants and children served by Public Health Nurses (PHNs) and decreased the time the nurses spent completing administrative |

| |paperwork. |

| |With no net increase in the workforce, the pilot demonstrated a 25% sustainable increase in productivity for client services in the |

| |pilot area. Plans are underway to implement the MRW in all six regional Public Health Centers. Other HHSA and County programs are being|

| |assessed to determine the feasibility of replicating the success of this business innovation in order to increase efficiency, lower |

| |costs and provide better service to the public. |

| |FISCAL IMPACT: |

| |There is no fiscal impact as a result of this action. |

| |RECOMMENDATION: |

| |CHIEF ADMINISTRATIVE OFFICER |

| |Receive the report on the Mobile Remote Workforce Business Process Re-engineering. |

| |ACTION: |

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

| |

|4. |SUBJECT: |HEALTH AND HUMAN SERVICES AGENCY SUNSET REVIEW OF BOARD POLICIES AND ADMINISTRATIVE CODE (DISTRICT: ALL) |

| |OVERVIEW: |

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

| |Board policies and the Administrative Code to ensure that obsolete policies and Code provisions are deleted and remaining policies and |

| |code provisions reflect current standards and practices. |

| |Based on the Sunset Review Process, Agency staff has reviewed Board Policy A-99 (Tobacco Use/Prevention and Cessation), County |

| |Administrative Code Article XV-B (Health and Human Services Charges and Fees) and County Administrative Code Article XLVIII (San Diego |

| |County Veterans Advisory Council) and recommends revisions for Board approval. |

| |Proposed changes are technical in nature and include updating statistical numbers and clarifying language to strengthen policy and |

| |reflect current Board practice. |

| |FISCAL IMPACT: |

| |N/A |

| |RECOMMENDATION: |

| |OVERVIEW: |

| |The Child Care and Development Planning Council (Planning Council) is advisory to the Board of Supervisors and the County Office of |

| |Education (COE). Its mandate is to assess local child care needs and to advise and advocate for child care issues. |

| |Board action is requested to approve amendments to the Child Care and Development Planning Council to: |

| |allow the Planning Council to appoint alternates previously approved by the Board and the COE to vacant membership positions, until the |

| |end of the calendar year; |

| |allow members and alternates to serve more than two consecutive terms; |

| |require 75% attendance at committee meetings as a condition of membership; and |

| |FISCAL IMPACT: |

| |N/A |

| |RECOMMENDATION: |

| |CHIEF ADMINISTRATIVE OFFICER |

|6. |SUBJECT: |AUTHORITY TO ESTABLISH JOB ORDER CONTRACT CAPACITY (DISTRICTS: ALL) |

| |OVERVIEW: |

| |The Department of General Services periodically requests authority to re-establish Job Order Contracting capacity in order to execute |

| |approved capital and major maintenance, repair, and remodeling projects. This proposal will authorize the advertisement and award of up|

| |to $31.5 million in Job Order Contracting capacity to execute capital and major maintenance programs including unanticipated emergency |

| |work added by departments during the year. An emphasis on JOC contracts with a maximum value of $500,000 will provide greater |

| |opportunity for smaller, local contractors to participate in this program. JOC contracts will be issued on an as-needed basis. The Job |

| |Order Contracting authority will cover projects budgeted within departments or approved separately by the Board of Supervisors and in |

| |support of general maintenance and repairs. |

| |FISCAL IMPACT: |

| |There is no fiscal impact at this time; funds are budgeted at the project level upon award. No additional annual costs or additional |

| |staff years will be required as a result of this action. |

| |BUSINESS IMPACT STATEMENT: |

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

| |Contracting contractors provide jobs for small sub-contractors who may not have the insurance or bonding capabilities to bid directly |

| |for County of San Diego projects. |

| |RECOMMENDATION: |

| |CHIEF ADMINISTRATIVE OFFICER |

| |Find, pursuant to Sections 15301, 15302, and 15303 of the California Environmental Quality Act (CEQA) Guidelines, that the recommended |

| |action to authorize Job Order Contracting will execute approved Capital and Major Maintenance projects involving only the repair, |

| |maintenance, and replacement of existing facilities, and the construction and conversion of small structures and is, therefore, |

| |categorically exempt from CEQA. |

| |Authorize the Director of Purchasing and Contracting to take any action authorized by Section 401, et seq. of the Administrative Code, |

| |with respect to contracting for public works projects with Job Order Contracting. |

| |Designate the Director of General Services as the County Officer responsible for the administration of all contracts associated with Job|

| |Order Contracting. |

| |ACTION: |

| |Adding a recommendation directing the Chief Administrative Officer to report back to the Board of Supervisors with information on |

| |performance accountability for contractors; ON MOTION of Supervisor Cox, seconded by Supervisor Jacob, the Board took action as |

| |recommended, on Consent. |

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

| |

| |

|7. |SUBJECT: |REQUEST FOR COMPETITIVE SOLICITATION AND AWARD OF CONTRACT FOR AUCTION SERVICES OF SURPLUS PROPERTY (DISTRICT: |

| | |ALL) |

| |OVERVIEW: |

| |As authorized by the Board on July 29, 2003 (11), the County of San Diego competitively procured public auction services to dispose of |

| |surplus vehicles, construction equipment, and other miscellaneous equipment. Funds from the auction sales are returned to the |

| |participating departments or outside agencies. A contract was awarded effective November 1, 2003 and is due to expire on October 31, |

| |2006. Today’s action requests Board approval to authorize the Director of the Department of Purchasing and Contracting to issue a |

| |competitive solicitation and award a contract for public auction services. |

| |FISCAL IMPACT: |

| |One hundred percent of the proceeds from auction sales are returned to participating County departments. The amount varies from year to |

| |year and depends on the type and quantity of items sold. Outside public agencies are charged a small fee by the contractor for items |

| |sold and receive the balance of the sale proceeds directly from the contractor. If approved, this request will not require additional |

| |staff years. |

| |RECOMMENDATION: |

| |CHIEF ADMINISTRATIVE OFFICER |

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

| |and Contracting to issue a competitive solicitation for auction services, and upon successful negotiations and determination of a fair |

| |and reasonable price, award a contract for a term of one year, with an option to renew for four additional one-year periods, 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 of the Department of Purchasing and Contracting. |

| |maintained by a non-profit, volunteer organization called Intermountain Park & Recreation (IPR). Existing amenities within the park |

| |include a playground, skate park, three ball fields, a volunteer pad and on-site parking. Today’s action will direct the Chief |

| |Administrative Officer to identify the necessary funding that will allow the Department of Parks & Recreation to manage and maintain |

| |Jess Martin Park, and refer this matter to the Fiscal Year 2006-07 budget process. |

| |FISCAL IMPACT: |

| |No fiscal impact as a result of this action. |

| |RECOMMENDATION: |

| |SUPERVISOR JACOB: |

| |Direct the Chief Administrative Officer, while working with the Department of Parks & Recreation, to identify the staffing level and |

| |OVERVIEW: |

| |Approve the tax-exempt financing by the Colorado Educational And Cultural Facilities Authority (the “Authority”), for the benefit of the|

| |Jewish Family Services of San Diego (the “Borrower”). The Authority, was created by the Colorado General Assembly, provides financing |

| |for colleges, universities, certain secondary schools, charter schools, and other educational institutions, as well as financings for |

| |The Jewish Family Service of San Diego through an application process, applied with the Authority to issue tax-exempt obligations in an |

| |amount not to exceed $10,000,000 (the “Bonds”). The proceeds of the Bonds will be used to finance the acquisition or reimbursement of |

| |costs for certain facilities of the Borrower. The only role of the County of San Diego in this project is to approve the financing |

| |solely for purposes of satisfying the public approval requirement of Section 147(f) of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986. Similar |

| |approvals have been given to other conduits. |

| |FISCAL IMPACT: |

| |If approved, this proposal will result in $1,000 of revenue to be used to fund the County’s Investor Relation Programs as approved by |

| |the Board of Supervisors in the County’s Debt Management Policy (B-65). No additional staff years will be required. |

| |RECOMMENDATION: |

| |CHIEF ADMINISTRATIVE OFFICER AND DEBT ADVISORY COMMITTEE |

| |Pursuant to Section 147(f) of the Internal Revenue Code, hold a public hearing regarding the financing of the project. |

| |Adopt the resolution approving Authority’s issuance of tax-exempt obligations in an amount not to exceed $10,000,000 of tax exempt |

| |obligations for the benefit of the Jewish Family Service of San Diego. |

|16. |SUBJECT: |LOCAL COMMUNITY PROJECTS GRANTS (DISTRICT: 3) |

| |OVERVIEW: |

| |Funding for the Community Projects Grant program was included in the fiscal year 2005-2006 adopted budget in order to further public |

| |purposes throughout the County. |

| |FISCAL IMPACT: |

| |The current year total combined cost of these 5 projects is $35,000. The funding source is the Community Projects Budget (org 0263). |

| |RECOMMENDATION: |

| |their 2006-07 season. |

| |annual Philippine Culture Festival in Mira Mesa. |

|17. |SUBJECT: |FIGHTING UNDERAGE DRINKING (DISTRICT: ALL) |

| |OVERVIEW: |

| |Alcohol use by minors is associated with traffic fatalities, violence and other behavioral problems that diminish a young person’s |

| |prospects for a healthy and successful future. Flavored malt beverages (FMBs) or “alcopops” have become increasingly popular with teens|

| |due to their sweet flavor and similarities to soda. |

| |Currently, FMBs are classified as a “beer” which results in a lower rate of taxation and allows the beverages to the sold under a |

| |different license than “distilled spirits.” A Writ of Mandate has been filed with the Court to force the California Department of |

| |Alcoholic Beverage Control to regulate FMBs as “distilled spirits,” resulting in a higher level of taxation and stricter licensing. |

| |Today’s action would express the Board’s support for AB 2013 (Saldanna) in its current form, which proposes to allocate any increased |

| |tax revenue generated by the reclassification of FMBs as “distilled spirits” to the “Youth Alcohol Problem Prevention Fund.” This fund |

| |provides financial support to fight underage drinking. |

| |FISCAL IMPACT: |

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

| |RECOMMENDATION: |

| |CHAIRMAN HORN AND SUPERVISOR SLATER-PRICE: |

| |Adopt a position of support for Assembly Bill 2013 and direct the Chief Administrative Officer to add support for this bill to the |

| |County’s legislative program. |

| |Direct the Chief Administrative Officer to draft a letter for the Chairman’s signature to the region’s State legislative delegation, |

| |expressing our Board’s support for Assembly Bill 2013. |

| |ACTION: |

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

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

| |

| | |(DISTRICT: 5) |

| |OVERVIEW: |
