OTAY MESA GENERATING PLANT – ADOPTION OF RESOLUTION CONSENTING TO PRIVATE ACQUISITION BY MEANS OF EMINENT DOMAIN (DISTRICT: 1)
 

On April 12, 2000 (2), the Board of Supervisors adopted Resolution No. 00-111, entitled Resolution of the San Diego County Board of Supervisors Recommendation to the California Energy Commission Application for Certification East Otay Mesa Generating Plant, P00-000.  This action was taken as a result of the Otay Mesa Generating Company, LLC requesting authority to construct and operate an energy plant within the East Otay Mesa Specific Plan area.  Although the County has no permitting authority for the proposed energy plant, the operators are required by the California Energy Commission to design a project that is consistent with the local jurisdiction’s General Plan, Zoning Ordinance, and other relevant regulations.

On April 3, 2001 (2), the Board of Supervisors approved an Agreement Between PG&E Generating Company, LLC and the County of San Diego for Acquisition and Dedication of Sewer Easement.  This agreement authorizes the acquisition efforts of Otay Mesa Generating Company, LLC (OMGC), an affiliate of PG&E Generating Company, LLC (PG&E).  The Board also authorized and directed the Clerk of the Board to send a Notice of Intention for acquisition of easements for sewer purposes for its Otay Mesa Generating Plant, by means of private exercise of the power of eminent domain, to the affected parties.

OMGC has been in the process of obtaining approval and permits for development of its Otay Mesa property with a 500 MW thermal electricity generating plant.  The California Energy Commission (CEC) gave final approval of the power plant on April 18, 2001, conditioned on provision of a public sewer for the plant.  Funding the project is also dependent upon acquisition of the sewer easements.  OMGC anticipates that power generated by the plant will significantly increase the available electric energy supply to San Diego County.  The property has no access to the public sewer and in order to get access, sewer lines will have to cross several other private ownerships to connect to the nearest public sewer.  OMGC is seeking easements, to be granted to the East Otay Mesa Sewer Maintenance District for the sewer from the various property owners.  When the sewer line has been installed, the improvements will be accepted by the County as a public sewer, under the East Otay Mesa Sewer Maintenance District.  If not all necessary easements can be purchased, OMGC may have to use private eminent domain, as authorized by Civil Code Section 1001, to acquire such easements.  Such private condemnation requires the consent of the County, pursuant to Code of Civil Procedure Section 1245.325.

The Board is requested to adopt a Resolution consenting to an action in eminent domain by a private party.
 

There is no cost to the County as a result of this request.  All costs of the acquisition will be borne by OMGC.
 

CHIEF ADMINISTRATIVE OFFICER

Adopt the Resolution Consenting to the Acquisition of an Appurtenant Easement in Property at East Otay Mesa by Means of Eminent Domain.  (4 VOTES)
 

ON MOTION of Supervisor Cox, seconded by Supervisor Slater, the Board of Supervisors closed the Hearing and took action as recommended, on Consent, adopting Resolution No 01-127, entitled:

CUSTOMER SATISFACTION – REPORT ON CUSTOMER SERVICE SURVEYS (DISTRICT: ALL)
 

The citizens of San Diego County expect quality services regardless of whether they are shopping at a local business or requesting a service that is delivered by a local government agency.  In fact, the customers the government serves should have even higher expectations from public agencies, because they cannot go somewhere else for service. One of the priorities of the Board, and key theme of the Chief Administrative Officer's goals, is improving the way County government serves its customers.  Providing the residents of San Diego County with superior County services in terms of quality, timeliness and value, is one of the ways this County is earning the respect and support of its residents.

Customer feedback is provided to the County through the Countywide Customer Satisfaction Survey and numerous departmental customer service surveys.  We also assess the quality of service delivery internally through Mystery Shopper and Phone Shopper Surveys.  As was shown in previous surveys, the County’s customers remain generally satisfied with County services.

This report summarizes the customer satisfaction data obtained from the following survey tools:

§   The sixth Countywide Customer Satisfaction Survey, conducted in November 2000, and

§    Mystery Shopper and Phone Shopper Surveys, conducted in May, July, September, and November of 2000.

Department Heads are asked to review the results of the November 2000 Countywide Customer Satisfaction Survey, propose corrective actions, and work towards correcting any identified weaknesses.   Department Heads also receive the results of each round of Mystery and Phone Shopping Surveys to encourage continuous program improvement.
 

FISCAL IMPACT:

This item has no fiscal impact.
 

Direct the Chief Administrative Officer to continue to work with the County to resolve customer service issues identified by these surveys, especially those common Countywide, through the activities of the Customer Service Leadership Committee.
 

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

SUBJECT:

JUVENILE DIVERSION AND ADULT EX-OFFENDER SERVICES
 

In past years, the County of San Diego has funded Juvenile Diversion and Adult Ex-Offender services, two programs providing early intervention and prevention services that result in long term benefits to the service recipients and taxpayers.  Juvenile Diversion services engage youth who are at-risk of entering or re-entering the juvenile justice system.  Adult Ex-Offender services assist persons to become employed after their release from local detention facilities. Both programs contribute to the avoidance of law enforcement and justice system costs. 

Juvenile Diversion and Adult Ex-Offender services are provided through County contracts with competitively selected community-based agencies.  The current contracts will terminate on June 30, 2001. This item requests the Board of Supervisors to authorize the Purchasing and Contracting Acting Director to issue a new Request for Proposal for each program and subject to successful negotiations, award new contracts. 

This item supports the Crime Prevention Initiative in the County’s Strategic Plan which promotes the goal to affect a significant decrease in crime rates, especially crimes committed by juveniles.  The Adult Ex-Offender program also supports the County’s Self-Sufficiency Initiative, which promotes and supports opportunities for all county residents to achieve self-sufficiency and to take responsibility for themselves and their families.
 

FISCAL IMPACT:

Funds of $3,060,005 are included in the FY 2001-02 Operational Plan.  The funding source is County General Revenue.  If approved, this request will result in $3,060,005 current year cost and $3,060,005 in costs for FY 2001-02.  There will be no change in net County cost and no additional staff years.
 

CHIEF ADMINISTRATIVE OFFICER

 In accordance with Section 401, Article XXIII of the County Administrative Code and Board of Supervisors Policy A-96, Sequence for Obtaining a Chief Administrative Officer Determination Regarding Economy and Efficiency of Independent Contractors Pursuant to Charter Section 703.10, authorize the Acting Director, Purchasing and Contracting, to issue Requests for Proposals to select contractors to provide Juvenile Diversion Services and Adult Ex-Offender Services and, upon successful negotiations and determination of a fair and reasonable price, award one-year contracts to be effective July 1, 2001 through June 30, 2002, with four additional option years and up to an additional six months if needed, and to amend the contracts to reflect changes in funding or service requirements, subject to approval of the Director, Health and Human Services Agency.

SOLE SOURCE CONTRACT FOR SAFE MEASURES SOFTWARE
 

The Health and Human Services Agency’s Childrens Services program is supported by a statewide, automated system called Child Welfare Services/Case Management System (CWS/CMS).  This State system meets federal requirements to report on characteristics of child welfare cases, tracks children in foster care, and captures data on program compliance. While the system fully meets the State needs for data, it provides limited county-level program management reports.   In order to increase the availability of county-level information, on December 12, 2000 (2), the Board approved a sole source contract with the University of California, Berkeley to purchase services to extract our County CWS/CMS data from the State database and produce management reports. 

Subsequent to this approval, the National Council on Crime and Delinquency (NCCD) has completed development of a software package called Safe Measures for management reporting.  Utilization of standard software, such as Safe Measures, provides a better alternative for more consistent and timely management information. Management reports will improve our ability to track our compliance with State and federal funding requirements, take early corrective action, and provide program data.

Board approval is requested to authorize the Acting Director of Purchasing and Contracting to enter into negotiations with NCCD, and subject to successful negotiations, to execute a sole source contract for purchase of Safe Measures software. This item supports the Fiscal Stability Initiative in the County Strategic Plan which promotes improvement of the management of County assets by providing staff with the ability to identify data elements required for State and Federal funding.
 

Funds for this proposal are included in the FY 2000-02 Operational Plan.  If approved, this request will result in current year cost and revenue of $14,361 and subsequent year cost and revenue of $170,220.  The funding sources are Child Welfare Services ($10,053) and Social Services Realignment ($4,308) funds.  There will be no change in net General Fund costs and no additional staff years.
 

RECOMMENDATION:

DOCUMENT MANAGEMENT SYSTEM – NEGOTIATED PROCUREMENT
 

A state-of-the-art and comprehensive document and records management system is a critical part of the County’s e-government vision.  Representatives from each County Group, with the technical support from GartnerGroup, have conducted a nationwide search and identified two top-tier document management vendors capable of meeting the County’s complex requirements.  This request is to competitively negotiate with the two vendors, Filenet and Documentum, for the establishment of a master agreement for County departments to utilize to implement document and records management systems.  A significant number of County departments intend on using this master agreement in the upcoming months and years to improve their operations and service to the public through the automation of their document and records management processes. 
 

If approved, the master service agreement will not result in any current year costs or addition of staff years.   The service agreement will be available for Departments to use, utilizing existing or new Board approved funding.
 

CHIEF ADMINISTRATIVE OFFICER

Authorize the Acting Director of the Department of Purchasing and Contracting, in accordance with Article XXIII, Section 401 of the County Administrative Code, to negotiate with two firms, Filenet and Documentum, to provide comprehensive document management, imaging and records management services and award a master service agreement subject to; determination of a fair and reasonable price; and review and approval of County Counsel, and the Executive Director, County Technology Office.

SUBJECT:

ENSURING VACCINATIONS FOR SAN DIEGANS (DISTRICT: ALL)
 

Due to a sharp escalation in cost and no corresponding increase in the State vaccine budget, the annual allotment of influenza (Flu) vaccine to the County will be only 25,690 doses for the 2001-02 flu season. This represents a shortage of 48,000 doses of flu vaccine compared to last season. Furthermore, the State Department of Health Services has notified the County of San Diego that due to shortages in the supply of Tetanus-Diphtheria vaccine (Td), restricted allotments will begin immediately, resulting in a local shortfall of 10,000 doses of the vaccine given to children over the next 12 months.

The reduction of critical flu vaccines for San Diego’s seniors and others at high risk for complications from influenza could result in needless illness, hospitalization, or death and cost our community countless dollars in unnecessary health care costs. Additionally, the lack of Td vaccine on our highly mobile and international community may result in outbreaks of diphtheria, or deaths from tetanus, both of which are otherwise rare occurrences.

This item requests that the State and Federal government assist the County in ensuring an adequate supply of Influenza vaccine and an assurance of appropriate Tetanus-Diphtheria vaccine for the needs of the region.
 

There is no fiscal impact as a result of this request.
 

SUPERVISOR JACOB:

1.   Direct the Chief Administrative Officer to draft a letter for the Chair’s signature to the Governor and the Legislature asking them to provide San Diego County with its full allotment of 73,960 doses of the influenza vaccine for the 2001-2002 flu season.

2.   Direct the Chief Administrative Officer to draft a letter for the Chair’s signature to the Governor and Legislature urging them to assist the County with the remaining 35 percent of the doses of Tetanus-Diphtheria needed for the region as soon as supplies become available.

3.   Direct the Chief Administrative Officer to draft a letter for the Chair’s signature to be sent to San Diego’s Congressional representatives urging the federal government to secure a long-term purchasing contract with the manufacturer of the vaccine to help stabilize the price and supply of the Tetanus-Diphtheria vaccine.

4.   Direct the County’s Sacramento and Washington, D.C. legislative representatives to advocate for San Diego’s needed vaccinations.

SUBJECT:

REQUEST FOR PROPOSAL FOR SOLAR POWER SYSTEM INSTALLATION AND SERVICE FOR COUNTY OWNED PROPERTIES (DISTRICT: ALL)
 

The County is subject to increasing cost of electrical energy and lack of supply in the region.  The County is seeking various approaches to offset outages and participate in improving service throughout County facilities.

This is a request to authorize, in accordance with Board Policy A-87, Competitive Procurement, issuance of a Request for Proposals and award of a contract to install solar power collection devices for the purpose of supplementing the electrical energy available to the grid at peak usage during summer months by supplying solar power to County facilities.
 

FISCAL IMPACT:

If approved, this proposal will be budgeted in the proposed FY 2001-2002      Utility Budget.  As the contract is fulfilled other funding sources may be utilized.  Senate Bill 1345 (Statutes of 2000, Chapter 537) directs the Energy Commission to develop and administer a grant program to support the purchase and installation of solar energy and small distributed generation systems.
