SUBJECT:

FALLBROOK LIBRARY FEASIBILITY STUDY

(DISTRICT: 5)
 

 

OVERVIEW:

 

The Fallbrook Library is one of the busiest in the County Library system.  In 1997, the Friends of the Fallbrook Library funded a $70,000 remodel of the branch.  Even with this remodel, the current building of 8,100 square feet does not meet the needs of its service area population of 44,405.  Today’s item requests the Chief Administrative Officer to work with the Friends of the Fallbrook Library in conducting a feasibility study and site search that will accommodate the needs of this growing community.
 

 

FISCAL IMPACT:

 

The total cost of the proposed recommendations is $60,000.  Appropriations are available in the Community Projects budget (0265).  This will result in the addition of no staff years.
 

 

RECOMMENDATION:

 

CHAIRMAN HORN:

1.      Find in accordance with Section 15262 of the State of California Environmental Quality Act Guidelines that the proposed action is exempt from the Act in that it consists solely of feasibility studies for possible future actions which have not been currently funded, do not have a legally binding effect on later activities and will not have a significant impact on the environment.

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

3.      Transfer appropriations of $60,000 from Community Projects (Org. 0265, Acct. 3452) to the Contributions to the Capital Outlay Fund (Org. 5361, Acct. 6310) to provide funding for a new Fallbrook Library.

4.      Approve and authorize the establishment of appropriations in the amount of $60,000 in the Capital Outlay Fund for Capital project KL1974 (Org. 5493, Acct. 4974) Fallbrook Library, based on an operating transfer from the General Fund.

5.      Direct the Department of General Services to work with the County Library and the Friends of the Fallbrook Library to identify the required building specifications, identify suitable sites for a new Fallbrook Library, and, if appropriate, negotiate an option to lease or purchase agreement for Board of Supervisor’s approval.

ACTION:

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

NOTICED PUBLIC HEARING:

SHERIFF-EXERCISE OF OPTION TO PURCHASE A SHERIFF SUBSTATION AT 426 EAST ALVARADO ST. FALLBROOK (DISRTICT: 5)
 

 

OVERVIEW:

 

On December 2, 1997 (23), at the request of Supervisor Bill Horn and Sheriff William Kolender, the Board of Supervisors directed that the Department of General Services identify potential sites in the Fallbrook area for replacement of the existing inadequate Sheriff's substation.  On June 13, 2000 (1), the Board approved a Lease/Purchase Agreement for a 10,000 square foot build-to suit Sheriff substation at 426 East Alvarado Street in Fallbrook.  Construction of the facility is scheduled for completion in mid-July.  Under the terms of the Lease/Purchase Agreement, the County can exercise its option to purchase the substation within 90 days of completion.  The purchase price is $2,668,989.  On June 12, 2001 (12), the Board set a hearing for July 10, 2001 to consider exercising the option to purchase the substation and 1.08 acre site from Dealy Development, Inc., the project developer, and Fallbrook LLC, the property owner.
 

 

FISCAL IMPACT:

 

Funds for this request are budgeted in the Capital Outlay Fund for the Sheriff's Fallbrook Substation – KK9512.  If approved, this request will result in a current year expenditure of $431,940; $430,440 for the balance of the purchase price for the new substation, plus $1,500 for the County's share of escrow fees.  Funds for the increased annual cost of $61,843 for utilities, custodial, trash and facility maintenance at the new substation are budgeted in Sheriff’s Department budget.  This proposal will require no additional staff years.
 

 

RECOMMENDATION:

 

CHIEF ADMINISTRATIVE OFFICER:

1.      Authorize the Director of the Department of General Services to exercise the option to purchase the property at 426 East Alvarado Street, Fallbrook, from Dealy Development, Inc., and Fallbrook LLC for $2,668,989 and execute all escrow-related documents required to complete the purchase of the property, including a reconveyance of a Deed of Trust and Assignment of Rents, recorded as Document No. 2000-0358235.

2.      Amend the Fiscal Year 2001-2002 Facilities Management Internal Service Fund Spending Plan in the amount of $19,614 in Org 6431, Account 2351, utilities; $11,359 in Org 6412, Account 2230, custodial; $1,200 in Org 6414, Account 2234, trash; $29,670 in Org 6317, Account 2280, facilities maintenance.  All expenses will be offset by revenue in Account 9781, Charges in General Fund.

SUBJECT:

ADVERTISEMENT FOR BID AND AWARD OF CONSTRUCTION PROJECT, JULIAN SHERIFF SUBSTATION PROJECT KK0686 (DISTRICT: 2)
 

 

OVERVIEW:

 

This request seeks approval to bid and award a construction contract for the Julian Sheriff’s substation, Project KK0686.

On August 11, 1998 (3) at the request of Supervisor Jacob and Sheriff Kolender, the Board approved in principle the addition of approximately 2,270 square feet of space and authorized the Department of General Services to negotiate a lease or purchase of the required space.  On January 11, 2000 (12) the County purchased a structure of 3,850 square feet and 0.468 acres of property located at Coleman Village Plaza in downtown Julian.  When examined by structural engineers, the structure was deemed inadequate to meet current seismic and building codes. Since it cannot be retrofitted efficiently, the structure will be torn down and rebuilt to code.  It will be sited in its existing location and will match the historical appearance of the original structure.  Existing foundations will be utilized as feasible.  The proposed project will enlarge the space to 4,700 square feet to accommodate functional and ADA requirements, and to address mechanical and electrical needs.  The new building will establish a permanent substation for the community and will be ready for occupancy in late spring, 2002.
 

 

FISCAL IMPACT:

 

Funds for this request ($942,554) are partially budgeted in the Criminal Justice Capital Outlay Fund, Project KK0686.  If approved, $207,446 in appropriations from capital project KK8044 will be added to this project and will result in $1,150,000 current year costs, no annual costs and will require no additional staff years. The funding source is the Criminal Justice Capital Outlay Fund, Project KK0686.  If approved this action will result in  $1,150,000 current year costs, no annual costs and will require no additional staff years.
 

 

RECOMMENDATION:

 

CHIEF ADMINISTRATIVE OFFICER:

1.      Find in accordance with Sections 15302 and 15303(c) of the California Environmental Quality Act (CEQA) Guidelines that the construction of the Sheriff substation replaces an existing structure on the same foundation and is considered a small development project; and is therefore categorically exempt from CEQA.

2.      Cancel appropriations and related Proposition 172 revenue of $207,446 in the Criminal Justice Fund for Capital Project KK8044, Sheriff’s ASTREA Project to provide funding for the Sheriff’s Julian substation.

3.      Establish appropriations of $207,446 in the Criminal Justice Fund for Capital Project KK0686, Sheriff’s Julian substation, based on Proposition 172 revenue made available from cancellation of appropriations in Capital Project KK8044                  (4 VOTES).

4.      Authorize the Director, Department of Purchasing and Contracting, to take any action authorized by Section 403 of the Administrative Code, with respect to contracting for the subject Department of General Services project.

5.      Designate the Director, Department of General Services as the County Officer responsible for administering any awarded construction contracts.

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

SUBJECT:

JULY ENERGY STATUS REPORT (DISTRICT: ALL)
 

 

OVERVIEW:

 

The Board of Supervisors has taken a leadership position in voicing concern over the electricity crisis impacting San Diego County residents and businesses, and leading by example in energy conservation efforts.  Over the past year those actions have extended from direction to increase demand management/conservation efforts, in which the County is exceeding target goals, commanding the fight for better notification to the public of when and where rolling blackouts will hit, asking for legislation for a municipal utility district, to establishing “cool zones” for hot weather relief.

Today’s actions include receiving status reports on conservation/demand management efforts, blackout preparation, energy policy, municipal utility district legislation, the cool zones initiative, development of an energy conservation program for low and moderate-income homeowners, and distributed generation and solar power.
 

 

FISCAL IMPACT:

 

This is a status report and there are no fiscal impacts at this time.
 

 

RECOMMENDATION:

 

CHIEF ADMINISTRATIVE OFFICER:

1.      Receive this report; consider recommendations made herein and direct the Chief Administration Officer to provide a subsequent status report in 120 days.

2.      Adopt a Strategic Energy Master Plan for County Facilities.

3.      Authorize the Health and Human Services Agency to identify potential funding opportunities in connection with the “cool zones” project.

4.      Direct the CAO to establish an energy conservation program in partnership with the San Diego Gas and Electric (SDG&E) Energy Team conservation program that will leverage Community Development Block Grant (CDBG) funds with California Public Utility Commission (CPUC) funding that is being made available to the SDG&E Energy Team for energy conservation services for low-income families and senior citizens in San Diego County, and return with a program description and partnership agreement within 60 days.

ACTION:

ON MOTION of Supervisor Jacob, seconded by Supervisor Roberts, the Board of Supervisors took action as recommended.

CONSIDER RESPONSES TO REQUEST FOR PROPOSALS TO DEVELOP COUNTY PROPERTY IN SANTEE AND APPROVE RECOMMENDATION OF SOURCE SELECTION COMMITTEE (DISTRICT: 2)
 

 

OVERVIEW:

 

The County owns 326 acres of land within the City of Santee.  The southern portion of this tract includes land that is suitable for the development of a master planned office park with facilities for high-tech and other related commercial businesses. Today’s recommended actions will allow the County to move forward in association with one qualified Master Developer to initiate this long-envisioned development that will improve the job and overall economic base of Santee and the East County.

Board of Supervisors actions, December 12, 2000 (9), authorized the Director of General Services to prepare and release a Request for Proposals (RFP) to master plan and develop 257 acres of County owned property in the City of Santee, reserving 61 acres for County use (see Attachment A).  The RFP was preceded by a Request for Qualifications that identified four development teams with the experience and financial capability to complete a project on the County’s property, based on a land use plan to be approved by the City of Santee.  Three developer proposals were received by the April 9, 2001 deadline, from Lankford & Associate, Inc., Ryan Companies US, Inc., and San Diego High Tech Visions. 

A Source Selection Committee, appointed by the Director of General Services, evaluated the developer proposals.  This committee included one representative of the County, one representative of the City of Santee, and three independent business professionals with expertise in urban planning, economic development, and real estate finance.  Gerald Trimble of the real estate and economic development consulting firm of Keyser Marston Associates, Inc. served as technical advisor to County staff and the committee.

After reviewing the developer proposals, considering formal presentations from each developer and considering responses to follow up questions posed by the committee, the Source Selection Committee unanimously concluded that Ryan Companies US presented the best proposal to develop the County’s property.

On June 27, 2001, the Santee City Council met to consider the recommendation of the County’s Selection Committee and passed a resolution confirming the committee’s recommendation to select Ryan Companies US as the developer of the County’s property.

The Board of Supervisors set July 10, 2001, as the time to consider recommendations of the Source Selection Committee.  The Board is requested to consider the three developer proposals and the recommendation of the Source Selection Committee as confirmed by the Santee City Council, and to select Ryan Companies US to master plan and develop approximately 257 acres of County-owned land in the City of Santee.
 

 

FISCAL IMPACT:

 

The funds for this request are partially budgeted.  Appropriations in the amount of $50,000 are budgeted in the Edgemoor Development Fund.  Additional funds in the amount of $150,000 are being appropriated in this Board action.  This request will result in current year costs of $200,000 offset by developer contributions of $150,000, no annual costs, and will require no additional staff years.  Subsequent years' revenue is uncertain at this time.  The amount and timing of the revenue will be dependent on the entitlement approval process and the market response to the development.  Following approval of the business points (six to nine months), the developer will pay the County an additional $250,000 for the right to control the property though the entitlement period.
 

 

BUSINESS IMPACT STATEMENT:

 

Ryan Companies US will open an office in San Diego County for purposes of fulfilling its obligations under contract with the County.  Ryan Companies US estimates that it will spend during the next 18 to 24 months, up to $1,400,000 locally to obtain environmental clearance and entitlements required to develop the County’s property.  Assuming the developer is successful in obtaining entitlements, Ryan Companies US estimates that the project will generate construction activity in excess of $100 million and up to 5,800 permanent jobs over a period of seven to ten years.

OVERVIEW:

 

The Board of Supervisors is requested to ratify a three-year lease for 8,277 square feet of space in an office building. The space was recently needed on an urgent basis in order to relocate the District Attorney's "CATCH" program prior to June 18, 2001.  This program had been located, since its inception in July 2000, in inadequate and overcrowded space at 8322 Clairemont Mesa Boulevard on a month-to-month basis.  In May 2001, the County was given a 30-day termination notice.  Due to the urgency of finding substitute space, the Director of the Department of General Services executed a lease which allowed the County to occupy the new facility prior to June 18, 2001.  Board ratification is required to enable the County to pay the full $13,234 monthly rent proposed under the lease.
 

 

FISCAL IMPACT:

 

Funds for this request are budgeted.  Funding is from the State Office of Criminal Justice Planning.  If approved, the current year cost will be $163,572, which will be 100% revenue offset.

SUBJECT:

AUTHORITY TO BID, AWARD, AND MODIFY JOB ORDER CONTRACT (JOC) CONSTRUCTION CONTRACTS FOR THE MAJOR MAINTENANCE PROGRAM  (DISTRICT: ALL)
 

 

OVERVIEW:

 

The Department of General Services (DGS) is continuing an aggressive program to implement the County's major maintenance program, utilizing the concept of Job Order Contracting (JOC) as a means of improving execution of maintenance, repair and remodeling projects. 

This proposal will authorize the advertisement and award of eight Job Order Contracts to execute FY 01-02 projects and will increase the capacity of current JOC’s. The new $14 million construction contracting capacity will add to the existing $6.5 million remaining capacity on the seventeen currently active JOC’s. The increased contracting capability is necessary since the Major Maintenance Program plus the projected list of work added by departmental request totals over $15 million. The majority of this work can be executed by JOC

This proposal will also authorize change orders of up to $150,000 each to JOC 12 and JOC 13, necessary for the San Pasqual Academy project.
 

 

FISCAL IMPACT:

 

Funding for this proposal, in the amount of $14,000,000, is budgeted in the FY 01-02  Major Maintenance ISF sub-fund. No additional annual costs or additional staff years will be required as a result of this action.

SUBJECT:

MANAGED CARE PLAN REVENUE AGREEMENT WITH THE CALIFORNIA DEPARTMENT OF MENTAL HEALTH (DISTRICT:  ALL)
 

 

OVERVIEW:

 

In 1994 the California Department of Mental Health began transferring responsibility to counties to operate Medi-Cal funded mental health services under a managed care system.  The two-part process started in 1995 for inpatient Medi-Cal mental health services and then in 1998 for outpatient (non-hospital) services, termed "Medi-Cal Specialty Mental Health Services" by the State.  Medi-Cal Specialty Mental Health Services were implemented in 1998 by the State with a two-year revenue agreement that included funding for the first year only.  The State subsequently issued an amendment adding money to the first year allocation to cover mental health services to clients participating in prepaid health plans.  The initial two-year agreement and amendment were approved by the Board on July 21, 1998 (27).

The State issued a second amendment to the original revenue agreement to include funding for year two (Fiscal Year 1999-00), and has issued a new single-year revenue renewal agreement for year three (Fiscal Year 2000-01), for Medi-Cal Specialty Mental Health Services.  Although the amendment and agreement have not yet been executed, the State has remitted the funds to the County.  During the past year, several changes occurred in the Health and Human Services Agency, Mental Health Services staffing, contributing to delays in seeking Board authorization to ratify the agreements.  Also, the State has indicated their intent to issue additional amendments to the Fiscal Year 2000-01 agreement, but the documents are still in draft form.  The State recommends that Counties proceed with processing existing agreements and have amendments executed when the State finalizes and issues the documents. 

Therefore, this action seeks Board ratification of the second amendment to the initial agreement, and ratification of the Fiscal Year 2000-01 revenue agreement renewal.  In anticipation of an ongoing State process that annually issues a single-year revenue agreement for the year's allocation, followed by issuance of an amendment adjusting funding for that allocation, this action also seeks authorization for the Clerk of the Board to execute the anticipated amendment for Fiscal Year 2000-01 and ongoing agreements with the State, as well as other amendments and renewals for Medi-Cal Specialty Mental Health Services.

The County of San Diego, as a local Mental Health Plan providing Medi-Cal Specialty Mental Health Services, is continuing to build a managed care mental health system, enhance local public mental health services and retain administration over the local public mental health system.  This request is in accordance with the health and wellness initiative in the County’s strategic plan to increase the availability, quality and timeliness of mental health services, including treatment beds and outpatient services.
 

 

FISCAL IMPACT:

 

Funds of $14,343,074 were included in the FY 1999-01 and FY 2000-02 Operational Plans.  Funds are included in the FY 2001-03 Operational Plan.  If approved, this request will result in FY 2001-2002 cost and revenue of $28,376,532 and in subsequent years cost and revenue of $28,376,532.  The funding sources are State General Fund, $14,343,074 and Managed Care Medi-Cal Federal Financial Participation, $14,033,458.  There will be no change in net General Fund cost and no additional staff years.  Revenue of $28,376,532 was received in FY 1999-00 (State $14,343,074 and Federal $14,033,458) per the second amendment to the original revenue agreement, to cover costs incurred.
 

 

RECOMMENDATION:

 

CHIEF ADMINISTRATIVE OFFICER:

1.      Ratify and authorize the Clerk of the Board to execute an amendment to the Fiscal Year 1998-00 revenue agreement with the California Department of Mental Health for Medi-Cal Specialty Mental Health Services, which added Fiscal Year 1999-00 funding of $14,343,074.

2.      Ratify and authorize the Clerk of the Board to execute a revenue agreement with the California Department of Mental Health effective July 1, 2000 to June 30, 2001 in the amount of $14,343,074 for Medi-Cal Specialty Mental Health Services.

3.      Authorize the Clerk of the Board to execute amendments to the FY 2000-01 revenue agreement with the California Department of Mental Health for Medi-Cal Specialty Mental Health Services and to execute renewals and extensions to the revenue agreement, subject to approval of the Director, Health and Human Services Agency, provided terms, conditions, programs and funding are not materially impacted or altered.

SUBJECT:

WELFARE CASE DATA SYSTEM CONTRACT AMENDMENT (DISTRICT:  ALL)
 

 

OVERVIEW:

 

The Welfare Case Data System (WCDS) is an automated system supporting State and Federal mandated welfare programs.  A consortium of 17 California counties, including San Diego, has contracted since 1991 with Electronic Data Systems Corporation (EDS) to develop and maintain the WCDS.  The California State Association of Counties (CSAC) acts as the contract administrator on behalf of the participating counties. The Board of Supervisors approved the original WCDS contract on August 6, 1991 (12), with annual renewals and amendments through June 30, 1994.  Seven one-year extension options have been approved, the most recent on July 25, 2000 (15).  Board action is requested for an eighth one-year extension as the most cost-effective way to continue addressing the County’s WCDS maintenance and development needs, pending implementation of a new statewide automated welfare system, CalWORKS Information System (CalWIN). Development of CalWIN began in February 2000, with full implementation expected in May 2004.

With Board approval, funding will also be included in the WCDS contract for further customization of Service Management Access and Resource Tracking (SMART) software used for the Health and Human Services Agency's Information, Assessment and Referral (IAR) program. Through the IAR process, the Agency is implementing a "no wrong door" approach that facilitates access to needed services for clients.  Enhancements to SMART are needed to reduce or eliminate the need for double entry of data into multiple systems through development of interfaces with other existing Agency client databases. The approval of this contract activity supports the County’s strategic goals of self-sufficiency and technology to improve the ability to serve customers efficiently and effectively.
 

 

FISCAL IMPACT:

 

Funds for this request are included in the FY 2001-03 proposed Operational Plan for the Health and Human Services Agency.  Approval of this request will result in FY 01-02 costs of $1,714,945 and revenue of $1,370,950 and FY 02-03 costs of $1,714,945 and revenue of $1,370,950. The funding source is the County Expense Claim and the County General Revenue needed to meet the County’s required share.  There is no change to net General Fund cost or staff years.
