2.         SUBJECT:     ENHANCEMENT OF CHILD PROTECTION SERVICES

(Supv. Dist: All )

OVERVIEW:

Improving child protection programs for children in San Diego County has been a continuing priority for the Board of Supervisors. The Board has supported enhancing preventive services and a child-centered and family-focused approach, strengthening the foster care system, improving services to drug-addicted parents, expanding family home visiting services, and augmenting child protective services due to increases in referrals. However, child abuse and neglect remains a serious problem.  Last fiscal year, the Health and Human Services Agency received child abuse referrals on over 92,000 children, an 11% increase since Fiscal Year 1995-96.  Active cases in the child protective system averaged more than 9,400 each month during FY 1999-00, up 15% from the FY 1995-96 level.  The number of children in out-of-home placement jumped nearly 24% between FY 1995-96 and FY 1999-00, from an average of about 5,800 per month to more than 7,100 monthly.  These numbers underscore the County’s need for expanded capacity to conduct investigations and provide case management services.

Today, there is an opportunity to further enhance mandated services to abused and neglected children.  State funding is available to augment basic services, reduce the likelihood of out-of-home placement, and, where out-of-home placement is unavoidable, to provide added support to caregivers in order to have the best placement outcomes possible.  Based on a recently completed statewide study, the California Department of Social Services has initiated the first phase of an anticipated multi-year plan to improve funding and staffing for core investigative and case management services. 

Board action is requested to approve an $11.2 million spending plan for new ongoing funding received from the State for services to abused and neglected children and their families. In anticipation of the funding augmentation, $5.5 million was included in the Operational Plan. The actual funding increase provides an additional $5.7 million to be appropriated.  The spending plan includes adding professional, paraprofessional and support staff, acquiring associated equipment and space, and procuring services to increase productivity.  Approval of the spending plan and related recommendations will enable the County to strengthen its existing efforts to meet the needs of children and families.

FISCAL IMPACT:

Partial funding of $5,533,561 for the proposed $11,187,102 spending plan is included in the FY 2000-2002 Operational Plan.  If approved, this request will result in $5,653,541 additional current year costs ($5,653,541 annualized).  The funding sources are Child Welfare Services ($4,958,977), State Foster Care Licensing ($47,380), and Social Services Realignment ($647,184).  There will be no change in net General Fund and the addition of 191 positions (90.5 staff years in FY 2000-01, 181 staff years annualized).  The remaining $5,533,561 of the spending plan involves transfer of existing appropriations that were included in the Operational Plan in anticipation of the State funding augmentation.

REQUEST FOR PROPOSALS TO DEVELOP SURPLUS COUNTY PROPERTY IN SANTEE

(Supv. Dist: 2 )

OVERVIEW:

The County owns 326-acres of land within the City of Santee.  The northern 69 acres are unimproved and planned for residential use, excluding 30 acres to be set aside for the possible development of a new health campus.  The San Diego River floodway occupies 79 acres, separating the north and south areas of the property.  The southern 178 acres are partially improved with the Edgemoor skilled nursing facility, Las Colinas women’s detention facility, and existing streets. 

On April 11, 2000 (19), the Board directed the Director of General Services to prepare a Request for Qualifications for prospective developers to lease or purchase the river floodway and the southern property (+257 acres), and to continue to work with the City of Santee to include the City’s input into the Request for Qualifications/Request for Proposals (RFQ/RFP) process. 

After review by and input from the City of Santee, a Request for Developer Qualifications was issued in August 2000.  Four development teams responded with submittals.  A Source Selection Committee, appointed by the Director of General Services, has evaluated the developer qualifications and has recommended that all four development teams be invited to participate in a Request for Proposals process to select one developer for the property.

The Board is requested to adopt a series of recommendations, which will lead, to the issuance of a Request for Proposals and the eventual development of the County's surplus property in the City of Santee.

FISCAL IMPACT:

There is no fiscal impact or additional staff years associated with today’s requests.  If a lease or sale is ultimately approved as a result of the request for proposals, the County will realize unanticipated revenues in future fiscal years.

BUSINESS IMPACT STATEMENT:

The proposed actions may lead to the development of mixed-use project, including commercial improvements, residential housing, and new infrastructure improvements within the City of Santee.  This will positively impact employment in the construction industry over a period of five to ten years.  The commercial development will lead to the creation of new, permanent employment that will benefit the East County economy.

(Supv. Dist:  1)

OVERVIEW:

On May 16, 2000 (12), the Board approved a lease at 225 Broadway, San Diego, for the District Attorney's Child Support Enforcement Program.  The Board approved an Amended and Restated Lease for 59,348 square feet on October 24, 2000 (5), which changed the locations of the space within the building.  On December 5, 2000 (17), the Board approved in principle the leasing of an additional 7,500 square feet of space for the relocation of the data center, office space for an additional 40 employees and adequate room to house an on-site storeroom for office supplies and mail distribution.  Negotiations with the building owner resulted in the availability of only 7,000 square feet of space.

Today's request is to approve a First Amendment to the Amended and Restated Lease for the additional 7,000 square feet, including tenant improvements, at 225 Broadway, San Diego.  Approval of today's recommendation will enable the Child Support Enforcement Program to transition into a separate department with a minimum disruption of service.

FISCAL IMPACT:

Funds for this proposal are budgeted.  If approved this request will result in $228,873 current year cost, $1,020,509 annual cost, and will require no additional staff years.  The funding source is Federal Title IV-D, State General Fund and TANF Recovered Cost Revenue.  There is no General Fund cost associated with this program.

RECOMMENDATION:

CHIEF ADMINISTRATIVE OFFICER:

1.         Find, in accordance with Article 19, Section 15301 of the California Environmental Quality Act Guidelines, that this project is categorically exempt from the provisions of the guidelines, as such leasing involves a negligible expansion of use beyond that previously existing.

2.         Approve and authorize the Clerk of the Board of Supervisors to execute four copies of the First Amendment to the Amended and Restated Lease for the District Attorney's Child Support Enforcement Program, upon receipt.

3.         Authorize the Director of the Department of General Services to exercise the five-year  option to extend the Amended and Restated Lease prior to its expiration, if appropriate.

(Supv. Dist: 2)

OVERVIEW:

The County's Health and Human Services Agency occupies office space at 151 Van Houten, El Cajon, under two leases.  Children's Services has occupied the first floor since December 1996.  The second floor has been leased since November 1987.  The second floor was originally occupied by the Greater Avenues of Independence (GAIN) program, and more recently by Lockheed Martin, a County contractor providing employment case management services to welfare recipients.  Lockheed Martin recently relocated to another site they leased directly, vacating the second floor space at 151 Van Houten.  The Health and Human Services Agency intends to backfill the vacated space with County staff to improve service access for clients and relieve overcrowding at other Agency facilities.  Tenant improvements on the second floor are needed in order to accommodate County staff on that floor.  The Agency also proposes to make modifications to the first floor space to better serve the public.

This is a request for approval of two lease amendments to refurbish both floors at a cost of $324,891.  The County's participation will be $208,185, and the Lessor will contribute $116,706.  The Lessor will complete the work.  The amendments provide for progress payments for materials and work completed on each floor, deletion of the County's Option to Purchase the building, and the addition of a refurbishment allowance of $100,000 at the second option period, for the second floor lease.  All other terms and conditions are to remain the same

19.       SUBJECT:      MID-YEAR BUDGET REQUEST IN RESPONSE TO JUVENILE COURT LEGISLATION SB 2160

(Supv. Dist:  All)

OVERVIEW:

On September 13, 2000, the Governor approved Senate Bill 2160 (SB 2160 - Schiff).  This bill, effective on January 1, 2001, essentially presumes that the Juvenile Court will appoint counsel for every child in the dependency system.  This bill also requires the court to articulate, on the record, why the court will not appoint counsel for the child.  In addition, SB 2160 requires that counsel for the child have a caseload and training that assures adequate representation of the child.  The Public Defender is expecting an increase in appointments and a corresponding increase in workload.  This Board action is to increase juvenile dependency staff and associated services and supplies to adequately respond to the anticipated workload increases based on the passage of Senate Bill 2160.

FISCAL IMPACT:

Funds for this request are not budgeted. This action will result in a current fiscal year cost of $257,735 in Salaries and Benefits ($626,009 full year cost in FY 2001-02);  $38,660 in Services and Supplies ($74,535 full year cost in FY 2001-02); and $17,800 in Fixed Assets of one time only costs to purchase one vehicle. These costs are expected to be offset by State Trial Court Funding revenue; therefore there are no additional general fund costs associated with this board letter.  An additional 3.4 staff years are required current year and 8 staff years for fiscal year 2001-02.

This action will require additional leased space of approximately 400 square feet.  General Services will present an amendment to our present lease in a separate action in the future. Costs for additional lease space are included in the services and supplies costs identified in this board letter.

RECOMMENDATION:

CHIEF ADMINISTRATIVE OFFICER:

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

23.       SUBJECT:     BRIDGING THE DIGITAL DIVIDE WITH SURPLUS COMPUTER EQUIPMENT

(Supv. Dist: All )

OVERVIEW:

One component of the IT Outsourcing Agreement between the Pennant Alliance and the County of San Diego was the establishment of the San Diego Futures Foundation (Foundation).  The mission of the Foundation is to assist in providing technology and technology opportunities to those individuals and groups that need assistance in bridging the digital divide.  As part of the transition to Pennant Alliance provided services, the County transferred title to all in-scope computing assets.  There are some organizations remaining in the County that have computing assets that were not transferred to the Pennant Alliance.  As the useful County life of these assets is reached, they still have value in bridging the digital divide. The proposed actions, if adopted,  allow for transfer of these assets to the San Diego Future’s Foundation.

FISCAL IMPACT:

 The transfer of County assets to the Pennant Alliance has significantly reduced the amount of assets to be disposed of through the Department of General Services (Salvage).  Historically, most of the computing assets previously disposed of provided a negligible return to the County that was generally offset by the cost of preparing the assets for disposal.  Therefore, the fiscal impact to the County is considered to be $0.

BUSINESS IMPACT STATEMENT:

The potential business impact to local organizations that may have purchased these disposal assets will be negligible compared to the potential benefit that can be realized by the San Diego Futures Foundation through the refurbishment and direct placement of these assets with the technologically disadvantaged.

RECOMMENDATION:

CHIEF ADMINISTRATIVE OFFICER:

1.            Approve introduction of an ordinance; read title and waive further reading of ordinance (MAJORITY VOTE): AN ORDINANCE AMENDING THE SAN DIEGO COUNTY ADMINISTRTIVE CODE RELATING TO DISPOSAL OF PERSONAL PROPERTY NO LONGER NEEDED BY COUNTY. Submit ordinance for further Board consideration and adoption on January 23, 2001.

2.            Approve and authorize the Chief Technology Officer to enter into a cooperative agreement with the San Diego Futures Foundation to provide for the transfer of surplus    computer assets for the initial period of February 1, 2001 through January 31, 2002, with four one year options through January 31, 2006.

(Supv. Dist: All )

OVERVIEW:

The Assessor/Recorder/County Clerk operates an Imaging System that serves as a back-bone to the departments operations.  This system is outside the scope of the Information Technology contract with the Pennant Alliance.  Key contracts with Wave Instruments Corporation for the maintenance of the system and for the distribution of images to title companies expire at the end of December, 2000 and need to be renewed.  Approval of this request will allow the Assessor/Recorder/County Clerk to continue to utilize Wave Instruments Corporation services to insure the continuing operation of the department’s imaging system and to continue to provide digitized images to two title companies. If approved, two 18 month contracts with two one-year options will be awarded to Wave Instruments Corporation for both the maintenance and support and image distribution.

25.       SUBJECT:     COUNTYWIDE PROJECT MANAGEMENT TRAINING

OVERVIEW:

The County of San Diego government has demonstrated strong business performance in the past several years.  Its ability to perform is tied to its efforts to implement contemporary solutions to business needs. Managing its fiscal, technological and human resources in a way that reinforces current best practices ensures that the County serves its citizens well.  The County is currently providing employees much needed technology and is focused on practices that optimize their skills.  The County is also systematically providing training and professional development that is tied to its business practices.

A key component of how the County performs is how it manages projects. The County manages many large-scale projects and a wide range of other activities that require knowledge of project management.  Project management is an area of high visibility.  Developing County managers in high-caliber project management methodology is an essential element in ensuring the best use of resources provided by the taxpayers of the County.

The Department of Human Resources (DHR) in conjunction with the Auditor & Controller completed a thorough review of project management training providers.  They determined that Twin Star Consulting, a firm that has been certified by the Project Management Institute (PMI), is best able to provide the level, type, and quality of project management training required by the County of San Diego.  After the review was completed, the County entered into sole source agreements with Twin Star Consulting for project management training and consulting services.  These sole source agreements, which each fell under $50,000, were approved by the Chief Administrative Officer as required by Board Policy A-87 and one hundred thirty (130) County managers were trained. 

As a result of continued interest and requests for this training from other County departments, DHR is now recommending a Countywide sole source agreement with Twin Star Consulting for these services.

Authority to provide this important training will contribute to the overall quality of the services that the County provides to its citizens.  The impact will be increased over the years as more County managers become familiar with the project management approach to managing County operations.  To supplement this management-level training, training targeted for project team members will be investigated through the competitive bidding process.

FISCAL IMPACT:

Funds for this request are budgeted in the departments that will utilize these training services.  Additional appropriations in the amount of $23,000 from management reserves are being budgeted in the Department of Human Resources in order to subsidize departments as needed.  The funding source will vary depending on the department utilizing the services. If approved, current year costs Countywide under this sole source agreement are estimated to be at least $97,800 based on current demand for at least six programs.  Additional interest or demand would result in the delivery of additional training/consulting services and associated costs would increase proportionally.  This request will require no additional staff years.

RECOMMENDATION:

CHIEF ADMINISTRATIVE OFFICER:

1.                  Transfer appropriations in the total amount of $23,000 within the Department of Human Resources from management reserve (account 6405) to services and supplies (account 2315) to be used to subsidize departments as needed.  (4 VOTES)

2.         In accordance with Board Policy A-87, Competitive Procurement, approve and authorize the Deputy Director, Office of Purchasing and Contracting, to enter into negotiations with Twin Star Consulting, and, subject to successful negotiations and determination of a fair and reasonable price, award a contract for provision of project management training and consulting for Fiscal Year 2000-01 and four (4) additional option years, and to amend the contract as required to reflect changes to services and funding allocations, subject to approval by the Director, Human Resources.
