SUBJECT:

SAN DIEGO COUNTY CHILD AND FAMILY HEALTH AND WELL BEING REPORT CARD 2001 (DISTRICTS:  ALL)

OVERVIEW:

On August 6, 1997 (7), at the recommendation of Supervisors Cox and Jacob, the Board of Supervisors approved the development of a Report Card to provide a regular, systematic tool for monitoring the impact of significant policy and service delivery changes, such as welfare reform, managed care and the formation of the Health and Human Services Agency (HHSA), on the health and well-being of children and families in San Diego County.  Subsequently, the Board has approved the use of public and private funds for Report Card development and production.

Findings in the 2001 Report Card show that San Diego County children and families generally are doing better than those elsewhere in the State or nation.  In the majority of the areas where data are available to make comparisons against the State or nation, the County does noticeably better.

This year’s Report Card 2001 shows a statistically significant improvement over a three to five year period in eight areas:  unemployment, children and youth receiving CalWORKs assistance, teen births, immunizations in young children, domestic violence, youth offenders, unintentional injury of children and youth, and high school dropouts.  An additional seven areas showed improvement, seven areas showed little change and four areas have data that are too preliminary to determine progress. Over the three to five year period, no area worsened.  In some of the areas where data are available for racial/ethnic group comparisons, disparities are shown, as with other communities in California and the nation.

The community can celebrate the successes with this third annual Report Card, and use the information it contains to leverage efforts and resources with other public and private entities to continue the progress toward further improvement.  This item requests that the Board receive the San Diego County Child and Family Health & Well-Being Report Card 2001.  The item supports the County’s Strategic Initiatives for Health and Wellness and Self Sufficiency, which promote the overall health and well being of County residents and support the opportunity for all residents to achieve self sufficiency and take responsibility for themselves and their families.

FISCAL IMPACT:

There is no fiscal impact associated with this report. 

RECOMMENDATION:

CHIEF ADMINISTRATIVE OFFICER

Receive the San Diego County Child and Family Health and Well-Being Report Card 2001.

ACTION:

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

AYES:  Cox, Jacob, Slater, Roberts, Horn

2.

SUBJECT:

HIGH TECH LINK FOR THE HOMELESS (DISTRICTS: ALL)

OVERVIEW:

On May 22, 2001 (3), the Board of Supervisors approved the California Work Opportunity and Responsibility to Kids (CalWORKs) Incentive Fund Program Spending Plan.  Included in this approved spending plan is funding to develop a data collection and tracking system to support the County’s Cold Weather Voucher Program.

Service Point is a web-based information management system for social service agencies, coalitions and communities.  It provides client tracking, bed availability for shelters, case management, agency and program indexing and reporting in a real-time environment over the web.

Approval of today’s item will allow the previously approved CalWORKS Incentive Funding to transfer from the Health and Human Services Agency to the Department of Housing and Community Development to administer the Service Point program on behalf of the County.

FISCAL IMPACT:

The funding source will be CalWORKS Incentive Funds.  Funds for this request are included in the approved CalWORKS Incentive Fund Spending Plan and will result in a one-time cost of $161,000.

RECOMMENDATION:

VICE CHAIRMAN RON ROBERTS AND SUPERVISOR GREG COX:

1.               Cancel appropriations and related revenue in the amount of $161,000 in the Health and Human Services Agency from CalWORKs Incentive Funds.

2.               Establish appropriations in the amount of $161,000 in the Department of Housing and Community Development from CalWORKs Incentive Funds to implement the Service Point expansion to County-contracted community based organizations providing services.

ACTION:

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

AYES:  Cox, Jacob, Slater, Roberts, Horn

3.

SUBJECT:

CALIFORNIA WORK OPPORTUNITY AND RESPONSIBILITY TO KIDS (CALWORKS) WELFARE TO WORK REGIONAL EVALUATION (DISTRICTS: ALL)

OVERVIEW:

As part of the County’s welfare reform strategy, the Board of Supervisors approved both a regional service delivery approach as well as a mix of government and private Welfare to Work models as service providers.  A component of this innovative approach to service delivery was an evaluation of the efficiency and effectiveness of these CalWORKs Welfare to Work case management models by an independent evaluator.  This evaluation would allow for the “best practices” among all the models to be identified and compared.

Today’s item requests the Board of Supervisors to authorize the Clerk of the Board to execute a grant agreement with the Rockefeller Foundation for $152,000.  This item also requests authorization for the Director of Purchasing and Contracting to negotiate a contract with the RAND Corporation to perform the evaluation of the effectiveness of San Diego’s unique service delivery approach in which government, for profit and non-profit agencies provide CalWORKs Welfare to Work services.  This twelve-month evaluation will analyze the best practices, including a cost benefit analysis (i.e. cost per recipient placed in a job or leaving aid) of the various models.  The findings from the evaluation will be considered for use in the future program planning of the ongoing CalWORKs Welfare to Work case management services. 

The total cost of the Welfare to Work regional evaluation is $202,000, $152,000 from the Rockefeller Foundation funds and $50,000 in already budgeted County funds. 

This item supports the Self Sufficiency Initiative in the County’s Strategic Plan which promotes and supports opportunities for all county residents to achieve self sufficiency and take responsibility for themselves and their families.  This item also supports the Regional Leadership Initiative in that lessons learned and best practices from San Diego County will likely reach a national audience and sustain our County’s standing as a leader in innovative human services strategies.

FISCAL IMPACT:

Funds for the County portion of this evaluation are included in the Fiscal Year 2001-02 Operational Plan.  If approved, this request will increase costs and revenues in the amount of $152,000 in Fiscal Year 2001-02.  The funding source is the Rockefeller Foundation.  There will be no change in net General Fund costs and no additional staff years.

RECOMMENDATION:

CHIEF ADMINISTRATIVE OFFICER

1.               Approve and authorize the Clerk of the Board to execute a grant agreement, upon receipt with the Rockefeller Foundation to accept Rockefeller funds awarded to the County in the amount of $152,000 for the CalWORKs Welfare to Work Regional Evaluation.

2.               Establish appropriations of $152,000 for Fiscal Year 2001-02 in the Health and Human Services Agency, Strategy, Planning and Evaluation Division, for the CalWORKs Welfare to Work Regional Evaluation based on revenues from the Rockefeller Foundation.  (4 VOTES)

3.               In accordance with Board Policy A-87, Competitive Procurement authorize the Director, Purchasing and Contracting to enter into negotiations with the RAND Corporation to evaluate and compare the four CalWORKs Welfare to Work service delivery models, and upon completion of successful negotiations and determination of a fair and reasonable price, award a one year contract beginning November 1, 2001 through October 31, 2002, and up to an additional year if needed, and amend the contract as required for changes to services and funding, which do not materially alter or impact the grant program or funding level, subject to approval of the Director, Health and Human Services Agency.  Waive the advertising requirement of Board Policy A-87.

ACTION:

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

AYES:  Cox, Jacob, Slater, Roberts, Horn

SUBJECT:

NOVEMBER ENERGY STATUS REPORT (DISTRICTS:  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.  The County is engaged in an aggressive energy management program, further reducing energy use in County facilities by another 6.3% beyond the 10% goal adopted by the Board on April 3, 2001.  In May 2001, on the recommendation of Supervisor Jacob, the Board directed establishment of “cool zones” to offer respite from summer heat for senior citizens and others.  In addition the Board provided direction on preparing for summer peak use blackouts, adopted a Strategic Energy Master Plan, authorized staff to explore opportunities for long range energy supply for County facilities and use of alternative generation technologies. The Board has also actively challenged the state and federal governments to develop needed solutions.

Today the Board is asked to receive a status report on the County’s energy conservation efforts, approve participation in the preparation of a Regional Energy Infrastructure Plan, and receive updates on use of solar energy for county facilities, medium-term contract for energy supply and long-term distributed generation plans, and based on Board Policy A-76, Sunset Review, approve amendments to Board Policy G-15, Design Standards for County Facilities.

FISCAL IMPACT:

A portion of the funds for this request ($100,000) is budgeted. The $100,000 for the County’s share of updating the Region’s Energy Infrastructure Plan is included in the FY01/02 Facilities Management Internal Services Fund Spending Plan. Funds for the solar energy units, Demand Management projects and the energy management system are not included in the Spending Plan. If approved, this request will result in estimated current year costs of $2,000,000 for purchase and installation of solar energy units and energy management system and completion of the demand management projects. Costs will be offset by SB 43X revenue of $2,000,000 from SDG&E. No additional staff years will be required.

RECOMMENDATION:

CHIEF ADMINISTRATIVE OFFICER

6.     Amend the FY01/02 Facilities Management Internal Service Fund spending plan in the amount of $2,000,000 to provide funding for the solar energy units, Demand Management projects and energy management system (Org 6431, account 2376, Contracted Services) based on unanticipated SB 43X revenue from SDG&E (Org 6431, account 9714, Third Party Recoveries).

7.     Direct the Chief Administrative Officer to monitor the FY 2001/2002 utility expenditures, and return in the Second Quarter Budget Status Report with a recommendation to utilize a portion of any realized energy savings for additional facility demand management projects.

8.     Receive an update on the County’s Direct Access for purchasing electricity and Distributed Generation efforts.

9.     Accept and approve amended Board Policy G-15, Design Standards for County Facilities.

In addition, the HOME Investment Partnerships Program provides HUD funds for various housing development programs, including acquisition, rehabilitation, new construction, rental assistance, and homebuyer assistance. These funds are administered through a consortium including the cities of Carlsbad, Encinitas, La Mesa, Santee and Vista.  The requested actions would approve the reallocation of $110,000 in HOME Investment Partnerships Program funds for the City of La Mesa Single Family Acquisition/Rehabilitation Program.

If approved, these recommendations will result in an estimated total cost of $897,096 in CDBG and HOME Investment Partnership Program funds in FY2001/02.

FISCAL IMPACT:

Funds in the amount of $897,096 are budgeted.  The funding Source is $787,096 from CDBG, and $110,000 in HOME Investment Partnership funds.  If approved, the recommendations will result in an estimated cost of $897,096 in FY 2001-02.  These requests result in no additional net County cost, and will require the addition of no staff years.
