SUBJECT:

FIRESTORM 2003 RESPONSE: AUTHORIZATION TO NEGOTIATE CONTRACTS WITH VARIOUS FIRE AGENCIES TO IMPROVE FIRE SERVICE IN THE UNINCORPORATED AREA (DISTRICTS: ALL)

OVERVIEW:

On December 2, 2003 (2,3,4) and on December 9, 2003 (6,7), the Board of Supervisors directed staff to take several actions to improve fire protection in response to the devastating wildfires that burned through the county in 2003. Those actions have included amendments to County Building and Fire Codes, Wildland Urban Interface Standards, and the Biological Mitigation Ordinance relating to fire resistive construction and clearing. On February 10, 2004 (1), your Board appropriated the funding for the acquisition of a fire and life safety helicopter. Then, on March 16, 2004 (6), your Board authorized the upgrade of the County Alert Service System (CASS) to a web-based product as a cost-effective and practical means of adding Reverse 9-1-1 to the County’s notification capabilities. Moreover, on June 15, 2004 (4), your Board, using a grant from the Indian Gaming Local Community Benefit Committee (IGLCBC) and funds from the Sheriff’s ASTREA Trust Fund, authorized the purchase of a second helicopter. In addition, your Board established the Fire Safety and Fuels Reduction Program on June 16, 2004 (4), to remove dead, dying, and diseased trees brought on by prolonged drought and bark beetle infestations. And furthermore, your Board approved the Fiscal Years 2004-05 and 2005-06 Operational Plan on June 28, 2004, in which funds were included for the Regional Communication System (RCS) enhancements recommended by the Chief Administrative Officer. However, consistent and uniform enforcement of County land use regulations along with additional training and equipment, in conjunction with previous County actions, would further improve fire protection and help protect lives and property.

This proposal would authorize the Director of Purchasing and Contracting, on behalf of the Chief Administrative Officer, to negotiate contracts with existing fire service entities in order to establish year-round fire protection and emergency response services in areas where these services are not currently provided. In addition, this proposal will improve fire prevention, training, coordination, and standardization of equipment. Additional staff will be added to the Department of Planning and Land Use to provide direct support to this program.

FISCAL IMPACT:

Funds for this request are not budgeted. The total annual cost of the contracts will not exceed $5,030,000. The funding source for the first year’s contract is County General Fund Fiscal Year 2004-05 fund balance. The projected annual salary and benefit costs for seven additional positions are $588,000. Appropriation adjustments for the staff costs as well as services and supplies and other start up costs of $186,000 will be addressed in the First Quarter Operational Plan Status report – existing appropriations are available within LUEG. The funding source for future year ongoing costs will be addressed in the CAO’s Proposed Operational Plan for Fiscal Years 2006-07 and 2007-08.

RECOMMENDATION:

CHIEF ADMINISTRATIVE OFFICER

1. Find that the proposal is exempt from the California Environmental Quality Act (CEQA) as specified in Section 15061 (b) (3) of the State CEQA Guidelines.

2. Authorize the Director of Purchasing of Contracting to negotiate with the California Department of Forestry, Volunteer Fire Agencies, County Service Areas, the Rural Fire Protection District, and the Mootamai, Pauma, and Yuima Municipal Water Districts and upon successful negotiation and determination of fair and reasonable price, award contracts to improve fire protection and emergency response services in their service areas for no less than three years.

3. Find that the procurement is exempt from Board Policy A-87, Competitive Procurement based on Public Domain – Procurement From Other Government Agencies.

4. Establish appropriations of $5,030,000 in the Department of Planning and Land Use based on County General Fund Fiscal Year 2004-05 fund balance for contracts for Fire Service Improvements. (4 VOTES)

5. Authorize the Department of Human Resources to establish and classify seven additional positions within the Department of Planning and Land Use to provide direct support for the Fire Service Program.

ACTION:

ON MOTION of Supervisor Horn, seconded Supervisor Jacob, the Board took action as recommended.

AYES: Cox, Jacob, Slater-Price, Horn

ABSENT: Roberts

2.

SUBJECT:

DIRECT PREPARATION OF A REQUEST FOR PROPOSALS (RFP) FOR DEVELOPMENT OF COUNTY OPERATIONS CENTER ANNEX SITE AND POSSIBLE RELATED SITES IN KEARNY MESA (DISTRICT: 4)

OVERVIEW:

The County of San Diego owns the approximate 19.5-acre County Operations Center Annex property at the southeast corner of Ruffin Road and Clairemont Mesa Boulevard in the Kearny Mesa community of the City of San Diego. Offices for several County departments are located at the site. By today's standards this site is underdeveloped, and the facilities are nearing the end of their useful life. County operational needs coupled with the substantial development activity and escalating land values in Kearny Mesa, there is an ideal opportunity for a beneficial public-private partnership.

This action requests Board direction to the Department of General Services to develop a Request for Proposals (RFP) to solicit potential development entities with the experience and financial capability to successfully plan and redevelop the County Operations Center Annex property, and possibly the County Operations Center. Development of the site(s) may include a mix of private commercial/residential and governmental uses and will target revenue-generating possibilities through private development.

FISCAL IMPACT:

There is no immediate fiscal impact associated with this action. The County may receive future revenue from an eventual public-private partnership development.

RECOMMENDATION:

SUPERVISOR ROBERTS:

1. Direct and authorize the Chief Administrative Officer to develop a Request for Proposals (RFP) to solicit private sector interest in the redevelopment of the County Operations Center Annex property as a business/residential/governmental center, with possible components to include revenue-generating private development and an option for the redevelopment of the County Operations Center. Direct staff to return to the Board within 45 days with a RFP.

2. Find that the proposed action is exempt from the California Environmental Quality Act (CEQA) under Article 5, Section 15060(c)(3) of the State CEQA Guidelines because it is not a project as defined by Section 15378.

ACTION:

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

AYES: Cox, Jacob, Slater-Price, Horn

ABSENT: Roberts

3.

SUBJECT:

LA MESA BRANCH LIBRARY - MEMORANDUM OF UNDERSTANDING AND LIBRARY SERVICES AGREEMENT WITH THE CITY OF LA MESA (DISTRICT: 2)

OVERVIEW:

The County owns and operates the La Mesa branch library at 8055 University Avenue, La Mesa. The building is more than 40 years old and does not adequately meet the current and future needs of the community. On March 22, 2005 (4), the Board of Supervisors authorized the Director of the Department of General Services to enter into negotiations with the City of La Mesa for the transfer of the County Library parcel to the City. In exchange, the City will commit to provide new interim and permanent library facilities, all at no cost to the County. It is estimated that the interim library facility could be completed and ready for County occupancy within the next 18 months.

The City desires to acquire the existing library building (County Parcel Number 2005-0190-A) to accommodate construction of a new police station. The City proposes to relocate the existing branch library into a new, interim library facility until the City secures the necessary funding to build a new, permanent library. The Memorandum of Understanding provides the framework for the future transfer of the County parcel, design, and construction of new, City-owned, interim and permanent library facilities, and future library operations in the new facilities. The Board is requested today to consider and approve the Memorandum of Understanding and Library Services Agreement.

FISCAL IMPACT:

There is no fiscal impact as a result of this action in Fiscal Year 2005-06. When the County relocates to the interim site following transfer of the County parcel to the City, there would be a net annual cost reduction to the County of $65,000 (in 2005-06 dollars) for maintenance, utilities, and custodial services at the current La Mesa Branch Library. The City will assume responsibility for these costs at the interim and permanent library facilities. In return, the County will transfer ownership of the County parcel to the City, the estimated current market value of which is $750,000. The value of the County’s no-cost occupancy of the interim and permanent library facilities over the anticipated 40-year term of the Library Services Agreement far exceeds the current market value of the County parcel. If the County parcel is transferred to the City and the City fails to obtain the funding required to commence construction of the permanent library within 10 years, the City would pay the County the fair market value, as of the date of termination of the Memorandum of Understanding, of the County parcel. No additional staff years are required as a result of this action.

RECOMMENDATION:

CHIEF ADMINISTRATIVE OFFICER

1.Find that the proposed action is exempt from the California Environmental Quality Act (CEQA) under Article 5, Section 15060(c)(3) of the State CEQA Guidelines because it is not a project as defined by Section 15378.

2.Approve the Memorandum of Understanding Between the City of La Mesa and the County of San Diego Concerning the La Mesa Branch Library, and authorize the Clerk of the Board of Supervisors to execute two originals of the document, upon receipt.

3.Approve the Library Services Agreement between the City of La Mesa and the County of San Diego for the Provision of Library Services at Both an Interim and Permanent Library, and authorize the Clerk of the Board of Supervisors to execute two originals of the Agreement, upon receipt. This Agreement will become effective upon the County’s occupancy of the interim library facility.

ACTION:

ON MOTION of Supervisor Cox, seconded Supervisor Horn, the Board continued this item to October 18, 2005.

AYES: Cox, Jacob, Slater-Price, Horn

ABSENT: Roberts

SUBJECT:

NOTICED PUBLIC HEARING:

SALE OF SURPLUS PROPERTY TO THE PARKING AUTHORITY OF THE CITY OF NATIONAL CITY – 0.53-ACRE SURPLUS PARK PROPERTY – PLAZA BONITA ROAD, NATIONAL CITY (DISTRICT: 1)

OVERVIEW:

The Board is requested to approve the sale of a 0.53-acre County-owned parcel in the vicinity of Plaza Bonita Road, National City, adjacent to Plaza Bonita Shopping Center. The sales price is $230,000, which is supported by an independent appraisal. The City of National City has requested the purchase of this parcel located on the east side of Plaza Bonita Road to facilitate the south expansion of the Plaza Bonita Shopping Center. Funds from the sale will result in $230,000 current year revenue to the Department of Parks and Recreation.

FISCAL IMPACT:

If approved, this request will result in $230,000 in current year revenue to the Department of Parks and Recreation, no annual revenue, and the addition of no staff years.

BUSINESS IMPACT STATEMENT:

If this sale is consummated, an increase of business activity may be created by the south expansion of the Plaza Bonita Shopping Center.

RECOMMENDATION:

CHIEF ADMINISTRATIVE OFFICER

1. Find, in accordance with Article 19, Section 15312 of the California Environmental Quality Act (CEQA) Guidelines, that the proposed sale is categorically exempt, as it is a sale of surplus government property.

2. Declare County Parcel 2005-0180-A surplus to County needs.

3. Pursuant to Government Code Section 25365, find that County Parcel 2005-0180-A is not required for County use and approve the sale of this property to the Parking Authority of the City of National City for $230,000. (4 VOTES)

4. Pursuant to Government Code Section 6061, find that the Clerk of the Board has advertised the County’s Intent to Sell County Parcel 2005-0180-A.

APPROPRIATE TRUST FUNDS FOR THE NORTH COUNTY ANIMAL SHELTER (DISTRICT: 5)

OVERVIEW:

The Department of Animal Services has received various donations specifically earmarked to benefit the North County Animal Shelter in Carlsbad. These funds were deposited into the North County Animal Shelter Building Trust Fund until needs for the project were identified.

Phase 2 of the project for the new 25,000-square-foot animal shelter has been completed and staff and animals moved to the new facility in July 2005. Phase 3 of the project is underway, and additional appropriations of $110,000 are required. With the completion of the project, the North County Animal Shelter will enable the Department of Animal Services to provide improved services to the public, enhanced medical care for animals, and better adoption prospects for orphaned pets at this new location.

The department also received a $4,000 donation, which was specifically designated for a new Guinea Pig enclosure at the North County Animal Shelter and will cover half the cost of the enclosure. The balance of $4,000 will come from undesignated donations.

FISCAL IMPACT:

Funds for this request are not budgeted. Approval of this request will result in current year costs of $118,000 based on unanticipated revenue from donations, and will require no future year costs or increase in staff. There is no General Purpose Revenue impact.

Donations have been deposited in the North County Animal Shelter Building Trust Fund (61282/512715) pending approval of this request.

RECOMMENDATION:

CHIEF ADMINISTRATIVE OFFICER

DOWNTOWN BLOCK - ACQUISITION OF ASSESSOR’S PARCEL NUMBER 533-483-04, 05 (UNION STREET ASSOCIATES) AND APPROVAL OF PARKING LEASE AMENDMENT (DISTRICT: 1)

OVERVIEW:

On August 11, 1998 (22), the Board of Supervisors authorized the Department of General Services to enter into negotiations with the owners of the properties bounded by Union, State, B, and C streets in downtown San Diego. The County has subsequently acquired three of the four parcels that comprise this block, which is strategically located just north of the Hall of Justice and close to the Central Jail and could serve multiple County space needs in the downtown area.

The Board is requested today to set a hearing for October 18, 2005 to consider the approval of the Purchase and Sale Agreement for the acquisition of final parcel, Assessor’s Parcel Number 533-483-04, 05 from Union Street Associates for $3,500,000 and approve a lease amendment that incorporates the parcel into an existing lease between Five Star Parking and the County.

FISCAL IMPACT:

If approved, this proposal will result in a current year cost of $3,515,000 from the Justice Facility Construction Fund (Capital Project 1000181, Downtown Block acquisition), no annual cost, and no additional staff years. The current Five Star parking lease will be renegotiated and extended to include the new acquisition. The new annual net income from the parking lease will be $739,200, a $269,550 increase over the current lease. The lease payments will be deposited into the General Fund, Public Safety Group Executive Office as over-realized revenues.

RECOMMENDATION:

SET HEARING FOR 03/14/06:

FISCAL YEAR 2006-07 STRATEGY AND 2004-05 PERFORMANCE REPORT FOR DEPARTMENT OF HOUSING AND COMMUNITY DEVELOPMENT ENTITLEMENT PROGRAMS (DISTRICT: ALL)

OVERVIEW:

This public hearing is to consider and approve the proposed Fiscal Year 2006-07 Annual Funding Plan Strategy that provides broad direction for the use of Fiscal Year 2006-07 Community Development Block Grant, HOME Investment Partnerships, Emergency Shelter Grant, and Housing Opportunities for Persons with AIDS Program funds. A second public hearing for consideration of the Fiscal Year 2006-07 Draft Annual Funding Plan is proposed for March 14, 2006. These federal programs provide funds for public infrastructure, revitalization of lower-income communities, and development of affordable housing for low-income residents and persons with special needs. The funds also serve children and families in need of temporary and long-term housing, including persons with HIV/AIDS. The Board of Supervisors’ approval of the attached Fiscal Year 2006-07 Annual Funding Plan Strategy will guide staff in development of the Annual Funding Plan and is the first major step in the Fiscal Year 2006-07 Annual Funding Plan schedule.

This is also an opportunity for the Board to receive public comment on the 2005 Consolidated Annual Performance and Evaluation Report that describes Fiscal Year 2004-05 accomplishments from the three entitlement programs: Community Development Block Grant, Home Investment Partnerships, and Emergency Shelter Grant programs; and other programs administered by the County Department of Housing and Community Development. All entitlement jurisdictions are required to annually submit this report to the U.S. Department of Housing and Urban Development (HUD). In addition, this year HUD has requested that a public hearing be held as part of the process in order to receive comments on the report.

FISCAL IMPACT:

Funds for this request will be included in the Housing and Community Development Fiscal Year 2006-07 Multiyear Projects Budget. The funding sources are Community Development Block Grant, HOME Investment Partnerships, Emergency Shelter Grant, and Housing Opportunities for Persons with AIDS Programs. If approved, this request will result in no current year cost, no annual cost, and will not require additional staff years.

BUSINESS IMPACT STATEMENT:

The request will have a positive impact on the business community, as the recommended Strategy will guide the development of the Fiscal Year 2006-07 Annual Funding Plan, including funds for construction of housing and public improvements. The funded projects will be implemented by private construction firms selected through a competitive bid process.

RECOMMENDATION:

CHIEF ADMINISTRATIVE OFFICER

SUBJECT:

CHILD ABUSE PREVENTION, INTERVENTION AND TREATMENT, COMMUNITY BASED CHILD ABUSE PREVENTION, AND PROMOTING SAFE AND STABLE FAMILIES PROGRAMS THREE-YEAR PLAN FOR FISCAL YEARS 2005 - 2008 (DISTRICT: ALL)

OVERVIEW:

The County of San Diego receives State funding from the Child Abuse Prevention, Intervention and Treatment program, the federally funded Community Based Child Abuse Prevention program, and the federally funded Promoting Safe and Stable Families program. Counties must apply to the State for funding and provide services based on a three-year plan. The Board approved the current funding agreement on February 26, 2002 (5). Accordingly, the Commission on Children, Youth and Families completed a comprehensive planning process to develop a proposed plan and application that meets all relevant State requirements. On February 10, 2004 (6), the Board approved the competitive solicitation for the Community Services for Families contracts, resulting in the implementation of a new service delivery model developed through a three-year planning process.

Effective with the new three-year funding cycle beginning on July 1, 2005, the California Department of Social Services, Office of Child Abuse Prevention requires counties to submit a three-year plan and application for funding under these programs. This item requests that the Board of Supervisors adopt a resolution approving the proposed Three-Year Child Abuse Prevention, Intervention and Treatment; Community Based Child Abuse Prevention; and Promoting Safe and Stable Families Programs Plan and Application for submission to the State, which will result in approximately $3,626,495 in annual revenue for three years from July 1, 2005 through June 30, 2008, for programs to protect children from abuse and neglect.

FISCAL IMPACT:

Funds are included in the FY 05-06 Operational Plan. The funding sources are Promoting Safe and Stable Families (PSSF), Child Abuse Prevention, Intervention and Treatment (CAPIT), and Community Based Child Abuse Prevention (CBCAP). If approved, the request will result in revenue of approximately $3,626,495 in FY 05-06, and subsequent years FY 06-07 and 07-08. There will be no change in net General Fund cost and no additional staff years.

RECOMMENDATION:

CHIEF ADMINISTRATIVE OFFICER

2. Adopt a resolution titled “County of San Diego Three-Year Plan and Application for the Child Abuse Prevention, Intervention and Treatment, Community Based Child Abuse Prevention and Promoting Safe and Stable Families Programs,” and authorize the Health and Human Services Agency to submit the plan and application to the California Department of Social Services, Office of Child Abuse Prevention.

ACTION:

ON MOTION of Supervisor Jacob, seconded Supervisor Cox, the Board took action as recommended, on Consent, adopting Resolution No. 05-174 entitled: COUNTY OF SAN DIEGO THREE-YEAR PLAN AND APPLICATION FOR THE CHILD ABUSE PREVENTION, INTERVENTION AND TREATMENT, COMMUNITY BASED CHILD ABUSE PREVENTION, AND PROMOTING SAFE AND STABLE FAMILIES PROGRAMS.

PROCUREMENT OF MENTAL HEALTH ADMINISTRATIVE SERVICES ORGANIZATION (ASO) (DISTRICT: ALL)

OVERVIEW:

As authorized by the Board on September 16, 1997 (56), and December 12, 2000 (4), the County of San Diego competitively procured contracts with United Behavioral Health (UBH) to be the Administrative Services Organization (ASO) that provides mental health clinical management and administrative services. The current contract includes a 24-hour toll free Access and Crisis Line for crisis intervention, mental health screening and information and referral; authorization of reimbursement for designated mental health services based on medical necessity determinations; management of an individual fee-for-service provider network, including credentialing providers and payment of claims; support for the Mental Health Management Information System (MIS), InSyst; and billing services to Short-Doyle/Medi-Cal and other payers. UBH’s current contract is due to expire on June 30, 2006.

On July 12, 2005 (4), the Board approved the competitive procurement of a new MIS for Mental Health Services. The transition to a new system is expected to occur approximately by July 2007. Under the current ASO contract, UBH provides support for the MIS. A one-year sole source extension of the County’s contract with UBH, through June 30, 2007, is recommended to avoid a disruption in support services during the transition to the new MIS.

Today’s action will also authorize the Director of Purchasing and Contracting to issue a competitive procurement for an ASO for Mental Health Services, to be effective July 1, 2007, for four years with two option years.

FISCAL IMPACT:

Funds for the ASO contract are included in the Fiscal Year 2006-2007 approved Operational Plan in the amount of $9,360,000. The funding sources are Mental Health Realignment ($5,616,000) and Short/Doyle Medi-Cal FFP ($3,744,000). It is anticipated that the new contract that is scheduled to begin in Fiscal Year 2007-2008 will be in the amount of $9,734,000, with the funding sources being Mental Health Realignment ($5,840,400) and Short/Doyle Medi-Cal FFP ($3,893,600). If approved, this request will result in no change in net General Fund cost and will not require additional staff years.

RECOMMENDATION:

CHIEF ADMINISTRATIVE OFFICER

1. In accordance with Section 401 et seq, of the County Administrative Code authorize the Director, Department of Purchasing and Contracting to issue a Competitive Solicitation for an administrative services organization, and upon successful negotiations and determination of a fair and reasonable price, award contract for a term of four years, with two option years and up to an additional six months if needed, and to amend the contract as needed to reflect changes to services and funding, subject to approval of the Director, Health and Human Services Agency.

SUBJECT:

ENSURING FOOD STAMP PAYMENT ACCURACY

(DISTRICT: ALL)

OVERVIEW:

The County of San Diego Health and Human Services Agency (HHSA) is committed to the highest levels of program integrity and accuracy in the delivery of State and federally mandated public assistance programs. The Food Stamp program is a federal nutritional benefit program that is monitored by the State for accuracy in eligibility determinations. The County of San Diego provides Food Stamp assistance to about 27,000 households.

In June 2006, the County of San Diego will join other California counties in the implementation of a new interactive welfare (CalWIN) database, which will change the way in which public assistance eligibility is determined. HHSA is committed to maintaining the Food Stamp accuracy rate within acceptable federal levels in order to meet State targets during and after implementation of the new system. To meet this goal, today’s action would authorize the competitive procurement of consultant services to provide an independent, objective review of current processes and recommend strategies to prepare for CalWIN implementation.

An independent consultant will assess local practices and deliver a report with an action plan for maintaining a high level of Food Stamp accuracy. The County’s Food Stamp accuracy program is focused on maintaining integrity and compliance with State and federal rules, ensuring that taxpayer dollars are spent appropriately, and assuring that eligible low income and working poor families receive the correct amount of benefits. Fraud Incentive funds are available to fund these services, which are estimated at up to $180,000.

FISCAL IMPACT:

Funds for this request are included in the Operational Plan for Fiscal Year 2005-07. If approved, this request will result in costs and revenue of up to $180,000 in Fiscal Year 2005-06. The funding source is Fraud Incentive Funds. There will be no net General Fund impact and no additional staff years.

RECOMMENDATION:

CHIEF ADMINISTRATIVE OFFICER

In accordance with Section 401 et seq. of the County Administrative Code authorize the Director, Department of Purchasing and Contracting to issue a Competitive Solicitation for the Food Stamp Accuracy Initiative Consultant Services, and subject to successful negotiations and determination of a fair and reasonable price, award a contract and to amend the contract as needed to reflect changes to services and funding, subject to approval of the Director of Health and Human Services.

SUBJECT:

HIV VIRAL LOAD TESTING REVENUE AGREEMENT (DISTRICT: ALL)

OVERVIEW:

The County of San Diego’s Public Health Laboratory is one of the regional labs selected by the State to perform Human Immunodeficiency Virus (HIV) Viral Load Testing. This test is performed to determine the appropriate use of medications for HIV-infected patients. The State reimburses the County for these services through a revenue agreement.

On April 20, 1999 (16), the Board of Supervisors authorized the Clerk of the Board to execute a revenue agreement with the State Department of Health Services for HIV Viral Load Testing and that staff return to the Board if there are any substantive changes to the program or funding level. This action will ratify the revenue agreement with the State for the period of July 1, 2005 through June 30, 2008 in the amount of $350,000 annually, which represents a 20 percent reduction in the contract amount from the prior contract period due to a decrease in available State funding for HIV Viral Load Testing. This funding reduction will not negatively impact the current program as other HIV/AIDS related funding sources are available to cover testing costs.

FISCAL IMPACT:

Funds for this proposal are included in the FY 2005-2007 Operational Plan. If approved, this request will result in FY 2005-2006 and subsequent year costs and revenue of $350,000 from the State Department of Health Services. There will be no change in net General Fund costs and no additional staff years.

RECOMMENDATION:

CHIEF ADMINISTRATIVE OFFICER

Ratify and authorize the Clerk of the Board of Supervisors to execute the Revenue Agreement with State Department of Health Services in the amount of $1,050,000 for a three year period of July 1, 2005 through June 30, 2008, and to execute subsequent amendments, extensions or renewals of the revenue agreements that do not materially impact or alter the grant program or the funding level.

SHERIFF’S DEPARTMENT REQUEST FOR THE PROCUREMENT OF HELICOPTER PARTS (DISTRICT: ALL)

OVERVIEW:

On July 13, 2004 (2 & 3), the Board authorized the purchase of fire and life safety helicopters and assigned the operational control to the Sheriff. On June 27, 2005 the Sheriff’s Department took delivery of two Bell 205 A-1 helicopters. These helicopters are fully certified by the Federal Aviation Administration and are classified as utility aircraft. This certification allows the Bell helicopters to perform missions other Sheriff’s helicopters are not allowed to such as performing complex rescues using a hoist.

These new medium lift helicopters will require ongoing routine maintenance and on occasion, repairs from unforeseen damage. Only Bell Textron manufactured parts are authorized for use in these certificated helicopters. Use of any other parts may void the certification.

This is a request for the sole source procurement of helicopter parts and components from Bell Textron or a Bell Customer Service Facility.

FISCAL IMPACT:

Funds for this request are budgeted. The funding source is general purpose revenues budgeted within the Sheriff’s Fiscal Year 2005-06 Operational Plan. If approved, this request will result in up to $500,000 in current year costs and up to $500,000 in annual costs and will require zero additional staff years.

RECOMMENDATION:

SHERIFF

1. Waive the advertising and competitive procurement requirements of Board Policy A-87.

2. In accordance with Board Policy A-87, Competitive Procurement, approve and authorize the Purchasing and Contracting Director to enter into negotiations with Bell Textron; and subject to successful negotiations and determination of a fair and reasonable price, award a contract for Bell Helicopter parts and components for a five-year period.

SHERIFF’S REQUEST FOR PROPOSAL FOR CIVIL ACCOUNTING SYSTEM (DISTRICT: ALL)

OVERVIEW:

The Sheriff currently operates and maintains the Civil Law Enforcement System (CLES). This former Marshal’s system processes fees for Sheriff’s services, tracks the collection and distribution of monies and property from civil cases and provides financial information such as fines and penalties to courts, attorneys and other involved parties. On average, CLES produces 8,000 warrants per month and processes approximately $20,000,000 worth of transactions annually.

The CLES System is 20 years old, has reached the end of its useful life and no longer meets the needs of the Sheriff’s Department. For example, state law requires that interest on money being held for citizens be calculated daily which CLES cannot do.

The Sheriff’s Department needs to replace CLES with a new Windows-based Civil Accounting System. This is a request to authorize the issuance of a competitive solicitation for a new Civil Accounting System and to establish appropriations for its purchase based on funds available in the Sheriff's Civil Automation Trust Fund.

FISCAL IMPACT:

Funds for this request are not budgeted. The funding source is revenue from the Sheriff’s Civil Automation Trust Fund. If approved, this request will result in estimated cost and revenue of $314,000 and subsequent annual costs and revenue of $31,000 and will require no additional staff years.

RECOMMENDATION:

SHERIFF

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