Joint Meeting of Contra Costa County and Solano County
Boards of Supervisors
December 6, 1988
Board Chambers
Solan County
580 Texas Street, Fairfield, California
The meeting was called to order by Acting Chair Don Peppo of
Solano County.
Kent Taylor, County Administrator of Solano County, advised
that his County' s war on drugs measure failed to pass in the
November election by a two to one ratio. Mr. Taylor attributed the
. failure .of the measure to a .lengthy ballot, lack of support for a
tax increase, and the late start of the campaign for the measure.
Phil Batchelor, County Administrator of Contra Costa County,
spoke on the need to reach and educate as many people who do not
know or are unaware of the consequences of drug abuse. He advised
of a Drug Summit being held in Contra Costa County on February 4 ,
1989, in which the California Attorney General, John Van DeKamp,
will be a key speaker. He noted that -the Summit will address
various components of the drug problem including its impact on the
family structure. Mr. Batchelor advised that there will be
follow-up programs to the summit structured for regional areas of
the County.
Supervisor Brann expressed an .interest in having
representatives of the Solano County Mental Health Department
participate in the Drug Summit.
Supervisor Powers commented on the establishment of a Strike
Task Force to address the drug problem in West Contra Costa County.
He spoke of the availability of a federal grant from the Omnibus
Drug Bill and suggested working together with law enforcement
agencies to develop a program to address the drug trafficking
problem along the I-80 corridor.
Supervisor Fanden pointed out that 85 percent of teenage
arrests is related to illegal drugs. The same statistics can be
applied to the jail population. She stressed the need for
educational and prevention programs.
Barbara Neustadter, Deputy Community Development
Director-Transportation, spoke on the recent passage of Regional
Measure I approving a revenue bond program to finance major bridge
improvements, the construction of new bridges, and rail transit
extensions designed to reduce bridge traffic, to be financed by a
one-dollar automobile toll on all seven of the state-owned regional
bridges in the Bay Area. She also referred to the recent passage
of Measure AA sponsored by the East Bay Regional Park District of
which Contra Costa County will receive approximately $1. 6 billion
in transportation facilities and the acquisition of open space.
She estimated that between the two referenced measures Contra Costa
County will received over $3 . 1 billion.
Supervisor Schroder, Chairman, Board of Supervisors of Contra
Costa County, advised that his Work Program Committee of the
Metropolitan Transportation Commission will begin on December 7 ,
1988 to develop recommendations for the phasing in of the
one-dollar bridge toll and the discount rate for commute books. He
further advised that his Committee will also be discussing whether
three-passenger or two-passenger automobiles will be the standard
designation for high occupancy vehicles (HOV) . It was noted that
DKS and Associates, consultants, are studying traffic concerns in
western Contra Costa along I-80, ( including the approaches to the
Carquinez Bridge) , to determine the feasibility of developing other
routes to Sacramento to relieve traffic congestion on I-80.
Supervisor McPeak noted that Contra Costa County supported a
two-passenger designation for high occupancy vehicles. She advised
that the increased bridge tolls will offset revenues lost from
HOV' s during toll-free periods. Supervisor McPeak suggested that
both Boards re-ratify their positions relative to toll-free periods
for HOV' s, vanpools, and transit companies during peak commute
hours on the Martinez-Benicia Bridge and Carquinez Bridge.
Supervisor Pippo requested the Solano County County
Administrator to agenda this matter for consideration by their
Board.
Supervisor Schroder commented on a 12-month rail corridor
study on evaluating ways to upgrade rail service along the I-80
corridor with the goal of attracting more patronage for rail
service as a means of reducing congestion on the freeways.
Mark Finucane, Health Services Director for Contra Costa
County, spoke on the success of the jointly operated prenatal
clinic. He advised that the program has grown from nine births to
23 births a month and that the clinic serves approximately 50
patients a month.
Tom Sharon, M.D. , Health Office-Medical Director for Solano
County, spoke on the need for medical speciality referrals. He
advised of a grant application being developed by the State
Department of Health Services to provide clinical assistance to
AIDS patients .
Mr. Finucane advised that both Contra Costa and Solano
counties will be studying the issue of trauma care. He spoke on
the possibility of offering the Contra Costa Health Plan to Solano
County employees.
Supervisor Powers commented on the recent passage of Measure H
by the voters in Contra Costa County in which there was support for
a parcel tax to fund emergency medical care. He noted that a
similar type measure passed in Alameda County.
Supervisor Davis requested Dr. Sharon to consult with Mr.
Finucane to develop a similar type measure for presentation to the
Solano County Board of Supervisors. Supervisor Caddle requested
that the Emergency Medical Care Committee also be authorized to
work on this proposal.
Phil Batchelor advised that the Export Committee has been
meeting with representatives of Alameda, San Joaquin, and Solano
counties soliciting their assistance in accepting a portion of
Contra Costa County' s garbage for disposal. He expressed
appreciation to Supervisor Caddle for his efforts on behalf of
Contra Costa County.
In response to a question of Supervisor Davis, there were
comments on the recycling programs in place in Contra Costa County.
Mr. Taylor advised that there has been some consideration of
the garbage issue and pointed out that the cities have expressed
concerns with accepting a portion of Contra Costa' s garbage. He
commented on educational material being prepared for distribution
to the cities on this issue. He anticipated having some city
representatives attend the next meeting with the Export Committee.
Supervisor Fanden, a member of the Export Committee, expressed
her appreciation to the Solano County Board for their support in
this matter. She noted that the export of garbage to other areas
should be viewed as a interim solution and requested that this
point be conveyed to the cities. She expressed an interest in
negotiating tipping fees with the Solano Board.
Supervisor Davis responded that monetary consideration is one
issue and another is the impact on Solano County' s Solid Waste
� • L
Management Plan, including the amount of garbage that can be
imported.
Phil Batchelor commented on the importance of the family
structure and the need to keep families together. He spoke of the
cost of out-of-home placements in comparison to providing
treatment/counseling in the home. Mr. Batchelor briefly described
the Family Preservation program in Contra Costa County. He then
presented the Solano County Board Members with copies of his book,
"Raising Parents. "
Supervisor McPeak of Contra Costa County noted that the book
is being given to all new parents at Merrithew Memorial Hospital.
Don Curry, Solano County Welfare Director, introduced Edith
Parsons who is in charge of child welfare programs. Ms. Parsons
described the Family Preservation program in place in Solano
County. She spoke of the need to carefully evaluate the family
structure to determine the feasibility of the child staying in the
home. She noted that sometimes it is safer to place a child out of
the home. Ms . Parsons pointed out that Solano County has found the
Family Preservation Program to be cost effective.
In reference to the Shell oil spill, Supervisor Caddle
inquired if Solano County might participate in Contra Costa
County' s Task Force. Supervisor McPeak responded affirmatively.
There was discussion on the replacement of the Contra Costa
County hospital and of the availability of funds through recently
enacted legislation to assist in that endeavor. Mr. Batchelor
advised that Solano County is also entitled to SB 1732 and Prop 99
monies. He advised of discussions with the Solano County Health
Director on this matter.
Supervisor Brann requested the Contra Costa Board of
Supervisors to take a position in support of HR 4791 which would
enable his County to purchase the Berryessa facility. He further
requested that the endorsement be communicated to Congressman
George Miller as soon as possible.
Supervisor McPeak advised that she will present this
legislation to the County' s Water Committee for the development of
Contra Costa' s position. She commented on findings made relative
to the proposed Solano County project noting that it would have no
detrimental impact on the Delta.
There was brief discussion on the proposed CSAC initiative and
feasibility of placing it on the ballot.
There being no further discussion, the meeting adjourned.
