THE BOARD OF SUPERVISORS Rusty Keilch, AIDS Program, Health Services ANp COUNTY ADMINISTRATOR Cities of Antioch, Concord, Richmond, BY (/ �• ��(�/ ,DEPUTY Pittsburg, Walnut Creek, Oakland(via CDD) 000 BACKGROUND/REASONS FOR RECOMMENDATIONS Housing Opportunities for Persons with AIDS (HOPWA) funds are allocated to Contra Costa Entitlement Jurisdictions (the County and the Cities of Antioch, Concord, Pittsburg, Richmond and Walnut Creek) by formula through the City of Oakland and the U.S. Department of Housing and Urban Development(HUD). As agreed by the Jurisdictions, $336,697 of the FY 1996 allocation was reserved for the development of affordable rental housing for low-income persons with HIV/AIDS. The County has documented a need for such housing. As of November, 1996, an estimated 4,000 people in Contra Costa County are HIV-positive. An income survey of clients served by HOPWA- funded service programs in Contra Costa County in FY 1993-94 emphasized the need for additional affordable housing and supportive services targeted to this population. Amara House, a group home located in East Richmond Heights in West County, and The Landings, located in Pittsburg, are currently the only facilities in Contra Costa which provide affordable housing specifically for persons with HIV/AIDS. A third facility, the 29-unit acquisition and rehabilitation Idaho Apartments project in El Cerrito, including 11 units for persons with HIV/AIDS, is expected to be complete in fall, 1997. On behalf of the Entitlement Jurisdictions, the Community Development Department conducted a competitive application process for the allocation of FY 1996 HOPWA funds, and made funds available on an open-window basis. Resources for Community Development (RCD) applied for FY 1996 HOPWA funds on March 31, 1997. The purpose of the Aspen Court project is the provision of 12 units of permanent, affordable, fully accessible rental housing for low income persons disabled with HIV/AIDS, including 5 units reserved for extremely low-income persons. The Board of Supervisors previously approved $380,000 in Contra Costa Consortium HOME Investment Partnership Act(HOME)funds and $200,000 in County HOPWA funds for this project. Due to higher than anticipated construction costs resulting from compliance with conditions of approval for infrastructure, expansive soil conditions, and tightening construction market, RCD has requested additional HOPWA funds for support of this project. Staff representatives of Contra Costa County Community Development Department and the Cities of Antioch, Concord, Pittsburg, Richmond and Walnut Creek agreed by consensus to recommend that the Board of Supervisors approve$134,500 in additional HOPWA funds based on the following rationale: RCD has undertaken cost-savings measures in project design and value engineering in order to reduce budget shortfall; and upon completion, Aspen Court will serve a population which has been identified as a priority by the County. In exchange for increased funding, RCD has agreed to extend the term of affordability for an additional ten years. Supportive services will be provided both onsite and offsite, and include nutritional, emotional, and psychological counseling. Other approved project funding includes HUD Section 811 Housing for Persons with Disabilities Funds ($1,065,720), and RCD funds ($9,500). All County funds provided to this project will be made available in the form of a subsidized loan with affordability restrictions designed to ensure that each facility will provide housing for low-income persons with HIV/AIDS for at least 60 years. These activities are consistent with the Consolidated Plan for Contra Costa County. RCD has developed over 300 units of housing in Alameda and Contra Costa Counties, including units for the disabled and people with AIDS. In addition to experience in housing development, RCD has been active in several efforts to plan and develop a continuum of housing opportunities for low- income residents in Alameda and Contra Costa County. Completion of the current housing project will contribute substantially to the County's efforts to provide affordable housing to special needs populations. c:EG\data\wp60\hopwa\bdorder2.wpd :. Contra Costa TO: BOARD OF SUPERVISORS County FROM: Harvey E. Bragdon Director of Community Development DATE: July 8, 1997 SUBJECT: Pacheco Community Center SPECIFIC REQUEST(S) OR RECOMMENDATIONS(S) & BACKGROUND AND JUSTIFICATION RECOMMENDATIONS AMEND BOARD ORDER OF FEBRUARY 6, 1996 to increase by $25,000 the authorized disbursement of Park Dedication Funds to the Pacheco Town Council for the Pacheco Community Center, from Accounts 8136-373503260, 8136-373503381, 8136-373503470, 8136-420832001, 8136-420832002, 8136467103212, 8136-420203381, 8136-420235531, 8136-420203331, and 8136-420235532 in an amount not to exceed $600,000.. FISCAL IMPACT No General Funds are involved. The total County contribution will ultimately be borne by Park Dedication Funds collected for public recreation purposes.

BACKGROUND/REASONS FOR RECOMMENDATIONS The Pacheco community has long desired to have a community center to provide for community functions and events. The Pacheco Town Council, a non-profit corporation, has developed and is operating the community center at this time.

COMMUNITY SERVICES STILL A TROUBLED DEPARTMENT BACKGROUND The Community Services Department's mission is to provide assistance to low-income families in Contra Costa County. This assistance is provided through four divisions: Child Development, Head Start, Community Services Block Grants and Weatherization. Services are funded primarily by federal and state grants. The department had 35 employees and a budget of$4.5 million in 1989 and has grown to include over 400 employees and an annual budget of$14.5 million in 1997. The director of this department is appointed by the Board of Supervisors. FINDINGS 1. From late 1994 until April 1996, the County Administrator's Office held weekly meetings with the senior management of the Community Services Department (the Department) in an effort to provide administrative oversight. 2. In April of 1996, the Director of the Community Services Department was placed on administrative leave. The Chief Assistant County Administrator was assigned as acting director of the Department. 3. The Department decentralized accounting in late 1994, leaving no effective fi- nancial oversight. The accounting function remains decentralized one year after the acting director took over management of the Department. 4. There are few written desk procedures, manuals or job descriptions in the de- partment. 5. The County is facing the potential loss of an estimated $900,000 through disal- lowed use of funds or lost revenue. Since April 1996, numerous errors in grant management have been discovered through state reviews, resulting in return of disallowed funding to the State in excess of $500,000 for program years 1994, 1995 and 1996. These disallowances are being paid out of the county general fund. Some losses have been identified in the following areas: 1 • A deficit situation in the weatherization program was identified in late 1995, but no corrective action was taken. The deficit continued to grow through- out 1996 with no meaningful corrective action by the county until late 1996 when the program was suspended. At that time, the deficit in the program exceeded $200,000. • A deficit of more than $95,000 was discovered in the Child Development Division in fiscal year 1995-96. • Administrative charges totaling approximately $37,000 against the Stewart B. McKinney Grant, a state funding source for homeless programs, were rejected by the state when the Department was unable to provide documentation for fiscal years 1995 and 1996 that any services had been provided. Potential disallowances of up to $400,000 for budget year 1996-97 have been identified by outside auditors. 6. The costs of the salary and expenses of the Department Director and the salary of two other employees were improperly charged against various state grants and contracts while those individuals were on extended administrative leave. These costs were rejected by the state in 1997 and were then charged to the county gen- eral fund. 7. In 1995, Paradigm Innovations was hired as a consultant to explore alternative funding sources for the acquisition of a school site for Head Start and Child De- velopment in Richmond. At that time, the Department had no budget to pay this contract. An attempt was made to charge costs to federal Head Start grants; these costs were disallowed. Subsequently, an attempt was made to charge this cost to Community Service Block Grants which the state auditors disallowed. The total cost of this contract ($36,000) has now been charged to the county general fund. 8. The Department staff has not submitted appropriate reports, budgets and interim reports on time, resulting in the return of moneys to funding sources. These costs then are covered by the county general fund. 9. Lack of timely submission of grant proposals has resulted in loss of potential revenue. 10. Each county is required by the State of California to prepare an annual Commu- nity Action Plan (the Plan) to receive Community Block Grant funding. The pri- mary goal of the Plan is to assist low-income families toward self-sufficiency. The Contra Costa County Plan did not include defined performance measure- ments as required by county guidelines. 2 11. When the Department signed subcontractors to provide services in the 1996 Plan, the Department failed to amend the Plan with the State (as per State guidelines) and, as a result,the charges were disallowed by state auditors. 12. After inquiries from the State Department of Community Services, the 1997 Community Action Plan was produced and submitted on short notice without substantial changes from the 1996 Plan. Staff did not allow sufficient time for consideration of any new community-based providers or for proper evaluation of the outcomes of past providers. CONCLUSIONS I. After 2'/z years of intense involvement by the County Administrator's Office in its administration, Community Services is still a troubled department. 2. Decentralized accounting and lack of oversight has contributed to the financial deficits in this department. There is no indication that any formal reorganization of accounting functions was made in a timely manner. 3. From April 1996 to April 1997, large deficits and disallowances were identified by State auditors in the Community Services Block Grant and Weatherization programs. There have been few meaningful changes in organization or staff in these divisions. 4. After 12 months under current management, little measurable improvement is evident within the Community Services Department. 5. Senior management continues to tolerate unsatisfactory performance without ob- servable consequence. 6. The Department has failed to determine the scope and depth of existing problems until identified by outside auditors. 7. The Community Action Plan has not been given appropriate attention by staff and does not reflect evaluation of past performance. Development and evaluation of the Plan should be a continuous process. 8. Unbudgeted charges of$900,000 to the county general fund are unacceptable. 3 RECOMMENDATIONS The 1996-97 Contra Costa County Grand Jury recommends that: 1. the Board of Supervisors direct the acting Director of the Community Services Department to identify and address problems within the Department with a spe- cific time line for corrective action. 2. the acting Director of the Community Services Department implement an over- sight system for all financial decisions. 3. the acting Director of the Community Services Department require all employees to meet written performance standards, including those for preparation of timely, accurate reports, properly supported by documentation. 4. the acting Director of the Community Services Department develop written guidelines for ongoing review and evaluation of the Community Action Plan to ensure that updated information is submitted to the State. 5. the acting Director of the Community Services Department utilize a rigorous employee evaluation process to identify employees with marginal or unsatisfac- tory performance and take appropriate action. 6. the Board of Supervisors select a permanent director who has demonstrated strong business management skills. COMMENTS The 1996-97 Contra Costa County Grand Jury is troubled that a county department with a large budget and numerous employees is allowed to drift without the leadership neces- sary to meet its goals and objectives of serving low-income families. 4 EBOA ] A REPORT BY THE 1996-97 CONTRA COSTA COUNTY GRAND JURY 1020 Ward Street Martinez, California 94553 (510) 646-2345 ' Report No.9712 IMPORTANT ISSUES FOR THE CONTRA COSTA COUNTY BOARD OF SUPERVISORS APPROVED BY THE GRAND JURY: / DATE: o?o 117 r f — M2O AROSE GRA O M ACCEPTED FOR FILING: DATE:���D�S� JOHN F VAN DE POEL JUDG OF THE SUPERIOR COURT SECTIIN 9 3 (C) OF THE CALIFORNIA PENAL CODE §933.

Grand Jury Report#9712 Important Issues for the Contra Costa County Board of Supervisors As the five members of the current Contra Costa County Board of Supervisors you share an unusual distinction--membership on a Board that is made up of first-term supervisors. Among other things, this means that as individuals and as a group you are in a position to look at county government with fresh eyes and that you are not emotionally or politically tied to current policies,practices or procedures since you did not institute them. You are strategically situated to make changes that logic,prudence and circumstances require. Hence this departure from the Grand Jury's usual practice of dealing with single issues in detailed and specific terms in each of its public communications. This report offers a few recommendations that can affect government performance in virtually all areas. Issue I Accountability Findings Since the general law under which our County Government is formed divides authority among elected supervisors,elected and appointed department heads and elected judges, accountability on a day-to-day,program-by-program basis is difficult to attain. The Board of Supervisors,however, has the "power of the purse" and thus is in a position to insist on performance standards being met. This must start with the individual in charge of each department being held responsible for each and every below-par performance in that department, with the penalties being prompt enough and stringent enough to stimulate the department head to achieve effective responsibility from all subordinates. We have encountered a disturbing number of cases in which unacceptable performance has not been detected promptly, has not been addressed consistently or has not been rectified. Conclusion Such cases result in the public being penalized by either poor services or increased cost or both. Recommendation 1. The Contra Costa County Board of Supervisors work for greater accountability at all levels. I Issue II Management Rights Finding For reasons best known to themselves,previous supervisors have surrendered or failed to assert basic management rights, such as the right to restructure or reorganize, determine the source of needed services and establish job standards. Management has also abdicated many of its perogatives to unions. This has resulted in such things as prison inmates being forbidden to provide repair and landscaping services at prisons, the requirement that County departments purchase in-house services and supplies that may be obtained more efficiently and economically from outside sources,the inability to change job requirements for jailers and bailiffs, and similar situations that cost the County money and affront the public. Conclusion Regaining basic management rights should be a top priority Recommendation 2. The Contra Costa County Board of Supervisors regain management rights previously surrendered or abdicated. Issue III Taxpayer Dollars FindinLrs A common refrain among County employees is "Oh, that's federal money,"or "we're just spending state dollars," with the implication that such "outside"funds do not need to be as carefully and responsibly utilized as County-produced revenues. The general public does not share this view. The practice of seeking one time or short-term grants from the State or the Federal government--or even the private sector--has increased as traditional revenues have faltered. Conclusions Taxpayer money is taxpayer money, wherever collected and should be treated as such. Considerable good has come from the"tin cup" method of financing, but certain dangers are implicit in it. Abandoning a good program after a grant runs out or downsizing a non-related program to keep a grant-initiated program in existence can cause hardship, inefficiency and overall impairment of mission Recommendation 3. The Contra Costa County Board of Supervisors remember that all government money is taxpayer money. Issue IV County Unity Findin There is great diversity in the occupations of the County's nearly 7,000 employees. Work is performed at many different geographic locations. An operating unit may be as small as a handful of people or as large as a company. The natural tendency is for individuals to identify with their units or occupations and see their missions in those terms. The overall concept that they are a part of one organization—the County government--and engaged in a single mission—providing needed services to the residents of Contra Costa County—is not widely recognized. The result is a tendency for County employees to assume ownership of their jobs or their functions, to assume a right to undisturbed and unquestioned continuance of such functions and to assume their units always should prevail. Conclusion: In rapidly changing times and circumstances such proprietary attitudes can lead to a rigidity that undermines efforts to modernize, to improve and to evaluate. Recommendation 4. The Contra Costa County Board of Supervisors strive to instill the concept of a unified entity in County employees. Issue V "Fees for Service" Finding One practice that discourages the unified entity concept is the practice of charging one department for services provided to it by another department,or the so-called "fee for service" practice. Conclusion This practice is admittedly a fairly effective tool for promoting budgetary responsibility and for preventing unnecessary consumption of services. However, it is also a practice that discourages the use of services when they are truly needed, that pits one department against another when cooperative efforts are needed, and that often requires costly and unproductive bookkeeping activity. Recommendation 5. The Contra Costa County Board of Supervisors review the Inter-departmental `Yee for service" budgeting policy. Issue VI Focus Findings The Contra Costa County Government has nearly 7,000 employees,engages in a score or more of separate activities and handles almost a billion dollars annually. Five basically part- time Supervisors have the responsibility to control this large enterprise. If they are to do their job well, they must concentrate on essentials and not squander their time on distractions. The primary duty of the Board of Supervisors is to establish public policy in all needed areas under their jurisdiction The next most important duty is to oversee the execution of their policies by County employees. Oversight is not operational management; it is the evaluation of results and the holding accountable of top level managers for those results. We have noted far too many instances where Supervisors have allowed themselves to be distracted from policy making and effective oversight by constituency pressures,political considerations and personal agendas. Even though the law generally prohibits the Supervisors from delegating its discretionary authority to an administrator or executive, they are not precluded from delegating responsibility and holding the designee accountable. We have observed a number of instances in which Board orders to departments have not been carried out, indicating that effective accountability procedures are either not in place or are not being currently utilized by the Board. Conclusion Consistent use of procedures designed to ensure accountability would protect Supervisors (and everybody else) from micro-managing on an ad hoc basis and would enable them to move swiftly and decisively when things go wrong. Recommendation 6. The Contra Costa County Board of Supervisors focus on a Supervisor's basic responsibility. Summary of Recommendations: The 1996-97 Contra Costa County Grand Jury recommends that the Contra Costa County Board of Supervisors: 1. Work for greater accountability at all levels. 2. Work to regain management rights previously surrendered or abdicated. 3. Remember that all government money is taxpayer money. 4. Strive to install the concept of a unified entity in County employees. S. Review the inter-departmental"fee for service"budgeting policy. 6. Focus on a Supervisor's basic responsibility. Comment As Supervisors, you have sought and won responsibility for a large number of matters of vital importance to the citizens of Contra Costa County. You have not been given responsibility for or authority in many other matters which are the responsibility of other levels of government or the private sector or individuals. Concentrate on the job you were elected to do; there is much to be improved. ivy SF.,) TO: BOARD OF SUPERVISORS CONTRA FROM: Ken Corcoran, Auditor-Controller COSTA By: Paul Abelson, Principal Accountant • . , ,� COUNTY DATE: June 19, 1997 SUBJECT: Accept Monthly Report on Supplemental Law Enforcement Services Fund Activity.

BACKGROUND: On May 20, 1997, the Board of Supervisors approved a report from our Committee on the subject of General Assistance and directed the Social Service Director to design a tracking system for accumulating statistics on General Assistance recipients and former recipients so the Board of Supervisors can evaluate the impact of its policy decisions. The Board also asked the Social Service Director to report to the Family and Human Services Committee on General Assistance each time he reported on welfare reform. On June 23, 1997, our Committee met with the Social Service Director, John Cullen, and representatives from SEIU, Local 535. Mr. Cullen presented the attached report to our Committee and reviewed it with us. We are pleased to see the direction being taken to track General Assistance recipients so we can evaluate the impact that our policy decisions have on people's lives.

Bruce Peaslee from Local 535 questioned the ability to track homeless General Assistance recipients or former recipients since they generally receive their mail at the Social Service Department and, by definition, do not have an address at which they are living. As a result, it may be difficult to contact them. Mr. Cullen agreed to take that concern back to the Department and discuss it with staff to see whether a better method of contacting homeless former General Assistance recipients could be designed. -2- tie t CONTRA COSTA COUNTY Social Service Department John Cullen, Director s>a Eouz{� DATE: June 17, 1997 TO: Donna Gerber and Mark DeSaulnier Family and Human Services Committee of the Board of Supervisors cc: Phil Batchelor FROM: John B.

There are, however, major points of disagreement which will have to be resolved by the Budget Conference Committee or the 'Big Five," consisting of the Governor, the President pro Tem of the Senate, the Speaker of the Assembly and the minority leaders in the Senate and Assembly. These include such items as: grant levels, exemptions from employment participation, time limits on the receipt of aid, and whether to make General Assistance a statewide program with statewide standards, grant levels and partial State funding. Mr. Cullen is optimistic that Contra Costa County will meet its performance levels for welfare-to-work placements. In response to a question from Supervisor Gerber, Mr. Cullen noted that Medi-Cal will continue to be asset based and therefore most TANF recipients will likely remain eligible for Medi-Cal even after they have gone to work. Also in response to questions from the Committee regarding General Assistance, Mr. Cullen noted that the current proposal is for General Assistance to be made uniform statewide with the same grant level in all counties. What is not clear is whether the grants will be the same, higher or lower than current levels. It is intended that counties be held harmless at the level of their 1996-97 expenditures for General Assistance, meaning they will have to continue to pay the amount that was spent on General Assistance in the current fiscal year (1996-97) but that the State would pay for increases in costs beyond that level. By next month we are hopeful that the Legislature and the Administration will have agreed on what welfare reform will look like in California. We are asking that Mr. Cullen brief our Committee next month on what welfare reform will look like in California. -2- Welfare Reform Update Report to the Board of Supervisors, Family and Human Services Subcommittee by the Contra Costa County Social Service Department Jame 16, 1997 Welfare reform continues to evolve at the federal, state and local level. This report details the progress of federal legislative initiatives in the 105th Congress, state welfare reform program design and budget cycle and county activities. Federal Welfare Reform • Budget agreement--Congressional leaders and the President have formed, in principle, a balanced budget agreement that includes welfare reform initiatives and funding over the next five years. ✓ Welfare-to-work--$2 billion dollars for job creation, $500 million for tax credits to businesses who hire welfare recipients. ✓ Food Stamps--$2 billion to create "work fare" slots for those who must work for benefits and cannot find private, unsubsidized employment. ✓ SSI for legal immigrants--$10 billion to restore benefits to disabled immigrants.' • Employment, Training and Literacy Enhancement Act of 1997 (HR 1385)-- This legislation has been passed by the House and is expected to form the basis of the new law after companion legislation is passed by the Senate (possibly as early as this month). If enacted into law, the Act would consolidate approximately 60 employment, training and literacy programs into block grants and make significant changes in the administration and governance of federal funds for these programs. ✓ Block grants--three block grants are created: ■ disadvantaged adult and dislocated worker training; ■ disadvantaged youth training; ■ adult literary and family literacy programs. ✓ Service delivery areas--the Act designates areas of 500,000 or more (as opposed to the current 200,000) as "Work Force Development Areas." ✓ Governance--current Private Industry Council structure is replaced by 'Continued benefits for current elderly immigrants were not included in the agreement. Analyses of the agreement estimate that, nationwide,approximately 2/3 of the legal immigrants receiving SSI as elderly could re-qualify as disabled. In Contra Costa there are approximately 1800 legal irtunigrants in this category; therefore, under this agreement it is estimated that about 600 elderly legal immigrants in our communities would be cut from the SSI rolls and be unable to re-qualify. Welfare Reform Update. 6/18/97 1 Work Force Development Boards, composed of key employment and training partners in business, public sector and the community. ✓ Administration--consolidates programs by amendment of the Wagner- Peyser Act, which governs Job Training Partnership Act (JTPA) structure; and authorizes state legislatures to appropriate block grant funds to cities and counties. State Welfare Reform The Special Conference Committee formed by the state legislature to address welfare reform issues completed its deliberations on June 9. Over 140 items that could form the elements of a state welfare reform plan were agreed upon. Major points of consensus, as well as areas that are unresolved, are highlighted below. • Conference Committee--Consensus Issues: ✓ State-wide standards--there would be state-wide benefit levels, basic eligibility requirements, income and asset tests and fair hearing procedures. ✓ County Plans--a local county plan would be required, both to conform to minimum requirements for employment and supportive services and to detail individual county plans for welfare-to-work services. These plans would be "certified", rather than approved or denied, by CDSS.2 ✓ Maintenance of Effort (MOE)--both the state and counties would be required to meet minimum funding requirements for the new system. The county MOE for county administration and GAIN would be set at the lower of a county's 1996-7 spending or an amount that would put the county MOE at the state's MOE as a percentage of historical expenditures. The effect is to allow the county MOE to fall if the state's TANF MOE falls, but to cap the county MOE at 1996-7 expenditures if the state TANF MOE increases. ✓ General Assistance--would implement a state share in GA costs, including 30% of grant spending and 15% of administration; would establish a standard grant structure; would establish a task force to study the integration of GA and TANF programs. ✓ Time Limits--After job club/job search activities, which could last up to 3 months, and once welfare-to-work services have commenced, time limits on aid for TANF participants would be 18 months, with an allowable extension of up to 12 months if the extension will lead to employment or is needed for additional treatment services. Exemptions from time limits include caretaker relatives, lack of supportive services, disability, illness, 2California Department of Social Services We fare Reform Update. 6118197 2 incapacity, Cal-Learn participants, "provisional aid period"' and months when child support equals or exceeds the cost of cash aid received. Aid would continue at the same grant levels after time limits are exhausted, provided participants are performing required work activities and fully cooperating with eligibility requirements. ✓ Data System--a data system would be developed by the University of California to identify and measure overall system outcomes and impacts. ✓ County Performance Outcomes--County performance in a variety of areas (including success in welfare-to-work placements, increased earnings, child well-being statistics, supply of, and demand for, support services, etc.) would be tracked. Counties found to be "non-performing" could be made to share federal sanctions with the state on a 50/50 basis. A task force would be formed to develop a plan for applying and allocating sanctions to counties (using factors such as economic conditions). ✓ TANF dollars for Probation--would enact the Comprehensive Youth Services Act to provide TANF funding to support a continuum of family- focused, case-specific services for at-risk youth and youthful offenders. ✓ Sanction--a sanction would be imposed if the parent fails to cooperate with paternity establishment. ✓ Child Care Payments and Funding--The child care disregard would be eliminated and a direct payment system (to providers) would be established. There would be standardized reimbursement rates, income thresholds and applications for child care services. For funding, a three- stage approach would be employed: ■ Entry into job club/job search services. A capped funding stream, managed by county welfare agencies through CDSS, would be utilized. ■ Stabilized child care funding, for those in training, working while on aid or transitioning off aid, a capped funding stream managed by a CDE' contractor. ■ Funding for those with stable employment, off aid or diverted from aid (similar to the current funding that pays for CDE-subsidized child care) and managed by a CDE contractor. ✓ Child Care Administration--new local child care councils would be formed, 3The "provisional aid period" is the up-to-3-months period during which intensive job club/job search services are provided. This period does, however, count toward the 5-year lifetime Limit on TANF aid. 4California Department of Education Welfare Reform Update: 6118197 3 participants would be appointed by county Boards of Supervisors and county Superintendents of Schools (50% each) to develop and oversee the local child care plan. The local councils would be comprised of 20% local government, 20% community representatives, 20% child care providers, 20% child care consumers and 20% "at-large" representatives. ✓ Diversion--counties would be allowed to offer diversion grants of up to three months' equivalent of the cash grant in a lump sum, to help families avoid entering the welfare system. ✓ Self-Initiated Programs SIPS)--counties would have the authority to approve SIPS that are likely to lead to employment. Cash grant participants enrolled in approved degree programs leading to employment could be exempted from work requirements for two years (for full-time attendance) to three years (part time attendance). ✓ Welfare-to-Work--Counties would have some flexibility to design employment services, including diversion, job search, assessment, work experience, job retention and supportive services. There would be additional funding for GAIN and Prop. 98 funds for TANF recipients seeking educational services. GAIN would be fully funded to serve all who are eligible. ✓ GAIN Sequence--After appraisal, up to 3 months of "provisional aid", during which intensive job search and job club services are provided; if no job, referral to assessment, an individual employment readiness agreement specifying work, training or education activities and supportive services; then an additional 6 weeks of job search; community service employment as a last resort. ✓ Community Service Employment--would establish statewide guidelines for local program design; adopt a local plan; require job search prior to public service employment; limit unpaid community service work; meet federal Fair Labor Standards Practices Act and pay wages based on comparable work and skill level and experience; include anti-displacement provisions. ✓ GAIN "Conciliation" Process--the initial notice of noncompliance would be a notice of action to change the grant payment, effective in 30 calendar days. The determination of good cause for noncompliance or agreement to a plan of compliance would have to occur within 30 days. ✓ EligibiliM-Simplification and Budgeting--grants would be budgeted Welfare Reform Update. 6118197 4 "prospectively i5; require "exception" reporting' of income above a certain, yet-to-be-determined threshold; semi-annual financial eligibility redeterminations (current system: annual); county-optional full annual redeterminations; treat lump sum income as a resource; make TANF recipients automatically eligible for Medi-Cal and Food Stamps. The first $350 of earned or unearned income would be disregarded as well as 50% of the remaining earned income, with elimination of "fill the gap" budgeting.' A $75 child support disregard would be established, as well as a "child support assurance" program for families with child support orders. ✓ Substance Abuse--persons convicted of a felony involving use of drugs could be aided under limited circumstances; those convicted of drug offenses involving sale or trafficking could not. Substance abuse screening as a component for job readiness assessments will be optional for counties. ✓ Legal Immigrants--current legal immigrants will be eligible to TANF and Medi-Cal. State-level SSI and Food Stamp programs will be formed to aid those dropped from the federal rolls. Qualified immigrants who enter the U.S. after 8/22/96, and some immigrant victims of domestic violence, would be eligible for state-funded benefits. ✓ Mental Health--$20 million for assessment and treatment of TANF participants with mental illness and/or substance abuse problems will be provided. Referrals for county mental health services would be required, as appropriate, as part of the individual employment plan. ✓ County pilots--Up to 7 counties could conduct pilot projects (each lasting up to three years) to test different methods of delivering welfare-to-work services. ✓ State-Level Merger of Employment-related Services--requires CDSS and the Employment Development Department to report about the feasibility of combining employment-related functions of each department; this report is due 6 months from enactment. 5This is a process of estimating future income to determine future month's grant--instead of the current, "retrospective" budgeting system,which uses past income to determine future grants. 'i.e., reporting only when changes occur, as opposed to the current system of reporting monthly, whether or not changes occurred. 7,Fill the gap'budgeting is a process of subtracting income from a need standard that is higher than the maximum allowable family grant amount, to determine a grant payment that is either the net grant amount after income is subtracted,or the maximum family grant amount,whichever is lower. Welfare Reform Update. 6/78/97 5 • Conference Committee--Unresolved Issues: ✓ Funding levels--for welfare-to-work, child care, job creation, and other issues. • Next Steps--the State Budget Process: The Conference Committee's body of work should next be issued as a full Conference report,which is the next step to sending a full package to the floor of each house. The Committee's work could be contained in a single bill or in multiple bills, which will move through the existing committee process as options are costed out and negotiations for the state budget gain momentum. The major existing welfare reform bills are being held in suspense as this process unfolds. Many believe that the basic welfare reform infrastructure expected to be put in place this year will hinge on both questions of spending priorities and a "Big Five" agreement as budget decisions come down to the wire. This year represents the state's first attempt to craft basic legislation to implement the federal PRWORAa mandates; it seems certain that welfare reform will be a multi-year evolution, at both the federal and state levels. The full Legislature's Budget Conference Committee began meeting on June 10 to work through a comprehensive list of welfare reform items. The Committee members' names and telephone numbers are listed below for contact to advocate for the "10 Critical Issues" outlined in Welfare Reform Bulletin 97-03 and/or to state your views on any of the welfare reform issues. • Budget Conference Committee (State Capitol, Sacramento, Ca. 95814) Senator Mike Thompson Rm. 3056 (916) 445-3375 Senator Cathie Wright Rm. 4052 445-8873 Senator Steve Peace Rm. 5080 445-6767 Assemblywoman Denise Ducheny Rm. 6026 445-7556 Assemblyman Gary Miller Rm. 6027 445-7550 Assemblywoman Martha Escutia Rm. 3146 445-8188 County Welfare Reform Activities The Social Service Department continues to participate in welfare reform initiatives to expand internal capacity to move families from welfare to work, as well as work with community partners to expand overall self-sufficiency service delivery capacity. sPersonal Responsibility and Work Opportunity Reconciliation Act of 1996 Welfare Reform Update. 6118197 6 • Activities— ✓ Pilot projects and lobby redesigns--the target start date for the four local office pilot projects is July 1. Lack of space, and the time needed for reconfiguration, are major obstacles to implementing the pilots on time. Staff for the pilots have been identified and are being trained (along with recently-hired GAIN Staff) in GAIN and employment-focused service delivery techniques. Lobby resource specialists have been identified and are also being trained. In the Antioch office, a job-service "Resource Room", open to all job-seekers, was dedicated on June 5.

Gilbert, Director o0enderaNSearvi"c0s SUBJECT: APPROVAL OF PLANS AND SPECIFICATIONS FOR NORTH RICHMOND CENTER FOR HEALTH; Agenda Date July 8, 1997 Authorization No. WH52813 The Director of General Services is recommending that the Board approves plans and specifications for construction for a Center for Health in North Richmond and advertise for bids on July 8, 1997. In response to requests from the Health Services Department and the Center for Health Advisory Board, the Director of General Services will recommend approval of a local hire requirement that will be added to the approved plans and specifications by addendum. The addendum will require the contractor to demonstrate reasonable efforts to employ 25% of the project work force from residents of West Contra Costa County. The language for the requirement is under review and will be submitted as an addendum to the bid and construction documents on July 15 or July 22, 1997. Bids are scheduled to be opened on August 7, 1997. The City of Richmond recommended distribution of$550,000.00 of Chevron USA Five-Point Program Funds to this project, on the condition that the "Center for Health must be constructed and operating within 18 months [from the City Council meeting of February 25, 1997] or the County will forfeit the funds." This is a tight schedule for design and construction of a health facility and it is important to solicit bids as soon as possible so that funding will not be jeopardized.

PURPOSE OF ISSUE: The Bonds are authorized by a vote of two-thirds of the qualified voters of the District voting at a special bond election for the purpose of raising money for authorized school purposes. SECURITY: The Bonds represent the obligation of the District, payable from ad valorem taxes levied upon all property within the District subject to taxation by the District, without limitation of rate or amount (except certain personal property, which is taxable at limited rates). The Board of Supervisors of the County of Contra Costa has the power and is obligated to levy said taxes for the payment of the Bonds and the interest thereon. TAX MATTERS: In the opinion of Orrick, Herrington & Sutcliffe LLP, San Francisco, California, based on existing statutes, regulations, rulings and court decisions, and assuming, among other matters, compliance with certain covenants contained in the resolutions providing for the issuance of the Bonds, the interest received by the owners of the Bonds is SF2-75838.1 4 excluded from gross income for federal income tax purposes under Section 103 of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986 and is exempt from State of California personal income taxes. See the discussion of Tax Matters in the Official Statement hereinafter referred to. In the event that prior to the delivery of the Bonds (a) the income received by private holders from bonds of the same type and character shall be declared to be includable in gross income (either at the time of such declaration or at any future date) for purposes of federal income tax laws, either by the terms of such laws or by ruling of a federal income tax authority or official which is followed by the Internal Revenue Service, or by decision of any federal court, or (b) any federal income tax law is adopted which will have a substantial adverse tax effect on holders of the Bonds as such, the successful bidder may, at its option, prior to the tender of the Bonds by the District, be relieved of its obligation to purchase the Bonds, and in such case the deposit accompanying its bid will be returned. For purposes of the preceding sentence, interest will be treated as excludable from gross income for federal income tax purposes whether or not it is includable as an item of tax preference for calculating alternative minimum taxes or otherwise includable for purposes of calculating certain other tax liabilities. LEGAL OPINION: The legal opinion of Orrick, Herrington & Sutcliffe LLP, San Francisco, California, approving the validity of the Bonds, will be furnished to the successful bidder upon delivery of the Bonds. Copies of said opinion will be filed with DTC and with the Paying Agent. TERMS OF SALE Highest Bid: The Bonds will be awarded to the responsible bidder submitting the highest responsive bid, considering the interest rate or rates specified and the premium offered, if any. The highest bid will be the bid which represents the lowest true interest cost ("TIC") to the District. The TIC will be the nominal interest rate which, when compounded semiannually and used to discount all debt service payments on the Bonds to the date of the Bonds, results in an amount equal to the price bid for the Bonds. In the event that two or more bidders offer bids at the same lowest TIC, the District will determine by lot which bidder will be awarded the Bonds. For the purpose of calculating the TIC, the mandatory sinking fund payments, if any (see "REDEMPTION--Mandatory Sinking Fund Redemption" above), shall be treated as serial maturities in such years. The determination of the bid representing the lowest TIC will be made without regard to any adjustments made or contemplated to be made after the award by the Treasurer, as described herein under "ADJUSTMENT OF PRINCIPAL AMOUNTS", even if such adjustments have the effect of raising the TIC of the successful bid to a level higher than the bid containing the next lowest TIC prior to adjustment. Form of Bid: Each bid must be for not less than all of the Bonds hereby offered for sale and must be for not less than the par value thereof, plus accrued interest, if any, to the date of delivery, plus such premium as is specified in the bid, and no bid will be accepted which contemplates the waiver of any interest or other concession by the bidder as a substitute for payment in full of the purchase price.

Contra Costa County Administration Building Martinez, CA 94553 Dear Board Members, I wish to advise you that the 1997-98 County assessment roll has been delivered to the County Auditor, as required by law. For the fiscal year beginning July 1, 1997, this year's assessment roll only reflects ten (10) months of activity due to the changing of the lien date from March 1 to January 1. Subsequent rolls will reflect a full twelve (12) months of activity. The increase in the local tax base for 1997-98 is $852 million and brings the total local assessment roll to $68.8 billion. The public utility roll, which totaled $2.7 billion last year, is part of the tax base in addition to the local roll, and is due to be delivered by the State Board of Equalization in August. The statistics show that the City of Concord continues to have the largest assessed valuation in the County, with Walnut Creek and Richmond second and third respectively. Brentwood registered the largest percent increase again with a gain of 13.5% over the prior year. The County assessment roll now consists of 310,800 parcels of real property, an increase of 2,000 parcels over the previous year, and 53,089 unsecured property accounts which include 27,489 assessable boats and 584 aircraft. During the past year, 21,285 building permits were reviewed for valuation of new construction, and 36,269 recordings of documents affecting ownership of property were processed. Honorable Board of Supervisors 2 June 23, 1997 I would like to acknowledge and commend the staff in my office for their continuing dedication and hard work, which resulted in completion and delivery of this assessment roll on a timely basis. Attached, for your information, is a summary sheet of assessed value distributed by areas of the County. Very truly yo�, i GUS S. KRAMER County Assessor GSK:rp Att.

W} J TO: BOARD OF SUPERVISORS FROM: Phil Batchelor, County Administrator Anne Marie Gold, County Librarian DATE: July 8, 1997 SUBJECT: Reorganization of Library Services SPECIFIC REQUEST(S) OR RECOMMENDATION(S) & BACKGROUND AND JUSTIFICATION 1. ACCEPT the report on the reorganization of library services. BACKGROUND: At its meeting of June 24, 1997 the Board of Supervisors requested information on the County Library Reorganization Operating Plan in the following areas: 1. The commitment of parcel tax funds to Central Library support, in particular the formula for the spread of such funds among the five regions. 2. The source of funds for the various commitments made in the Reorganization Operating Plan including: a) $170,000 annual operating funds commitment to Concord b) $1.5 million capital funds to Concord c) $150,000 annual operating funds to Central Library d) capital cost of new Hercules library facility 3. Commitment for a new library facility to Oakley and financial support for operating costs for such a facility. PARCEL TAX FUNDS IN SUPPORT OF CENTRAL LIBRARY As part of the commitment to maintain current levels of Central Library hours and services that was agreed upon during discussions between the County and the cities at the Public Managers Association in January - February 1997 it was agreed that an additional $600,000 would be provided to support Central Library services. This $600,000 would come from three sources: City of Pleasant Hill $200,000 County $150,000 Ballot measure revenues (shared by all regions) $250,000 This recommendation was made as part of the Board of Supervisors item at the March 11, 1997 meeting and subsequently adopted by the Board of Supervisors at its meeting on April 15, 1997. During the discussions between the County and the cities at the Public Managers Association it was agreed that the $250,000 commitment from ballot measure revenues would be shared equally by all regions, e.g. $50,000 per region.

In the April 15, 1997 Board item on Pages 10 -11 information was provided about the difference between equal and proportional split of ballot measure revenues by region. It was noted in the April 15, 1997 Board item that since the original allocation formula had been agreed upon by the Public Managers Association any change in the formula would need to be agreed on by all cities and the County. The Board of Supervisors took no action to change the allocation formula from the original one proposed at $50,000 per region. SOURCE OF FUNDS FOR REORGANIZATION OPERATING PLAN COMMITMENTS As part of the overall reorganization of library services the County made several commitments of County funds including: a) $170,000 annual operating funds commitment to Concord b) $1.5 million capital funds to Concord c) $150,000 annual operating funds to Central Library Concord funds: As part of the agreement it was stipulated that the funds for both the operational and capital commitments should come from funds other that those currently designated for non-capital library operations and other than those from future ballot measures. The commitment for operational funds does not become effective until after the facility renovation and expansion is completed. Currently the County Library receives $345,000 in State Public Library Fund (PLF) monies. The funds are allocated on a complex per capita and local level of funding formula basis. There is currently legislation (AB 345) pending in Sacramento which would change the allocation formula to a straight per capita formula when a certain target dollar amount allocation by the State is achieved for PLF. Currently both houses of the legislature have included a $10 million augmentation for the PLF in the preliminary budget. This increase in PLF funding would allow the fund to reach the target dollar amount to change the allocation formula. Should AB 345 become law and the PLF receive a $10 million increase, the estimated increase in revenues to Contra Costa County could be $284,000. In addition, as the economy continues to improve, it is likely that a statewide bond measure for public libraries may be approved by the voters. While there are variety of potential funding sources, these are two likely sources of funding for the commitments to Concord. Central Library funds: As part of the agreement to maintain current levels of Central Library hours and services the County agreed to contribute $150,000. The $150,000 was arrived at as a result of the higher than average per square foot ccupancy cost for the Central Library facility, as well as the greater square footage at the Central Library facility. The intent is that occupancy costs for a facility in Pleasant Hill should be similar to occupancy cost for an average size branch. The occupancy budget for the Central Library for FY 97- 98 is $232,000. The intent was that the County would contribute its $150,000 share as a result of a reduction in occupancy costs charged to the County Library for the Central Library facility. Hercules Library capital funds: The commitment agreed to by the County and cities at the Public Managers Association was to fund operational costs for a library in Hercules at the time that the City of Hercules completed the construction of the new facility. There was no commitment of County funds to the capital cost of a new library in Hercules. Only at the time that the City of Hercules has fully funded with its own funding sources and completed construction of a new library facility within its city limits does the agreement to fund library operations become effective. q:\reorg\bos7897.doc Reorganization of Library Services Board of Supervisors Agenda July 8, 1997 Page 3 COMMITMENT OF FUNDS TO OAKLEY FOR A LIBRARY FACILITY AND OPERATIONS In the actions taken by the Board of Supervisors at its meeting on April 15, 1997 it adopted the following as part of the overall motion: ADDED the possibility of a provision for the County to commit and maintain operational funding for an East County Library which demonstrates an ability to secure its own capital costs, similar to the funding strategy utilized by the City of Concord and/or the City of Hercules. Recently a library facility needs assessment and feasibility study was completed in Oakley, funded by redevelopment funds. The study projected a new 16,000 square foot facility and included various financing options for the capital costs for such a facility. The study has been received by the Oakley Municipal Advisory Council and no action has been taken on it to date. Historically Contra Costa County has not provided capital funding from library funds for new library facilities. Library facilities were funded by the local community utilizing County Service Area bond funding or by a city itself utilizing municipal funds. The commitment of $1.5 million in capital funds to the City of Concord as part of the overall reorganization agreement was in response to the issue of the City of Concord that it has historically generated more property tax revenue for library service than has been spent in the city. The issue of a commitment of operational funding for Oakley was discussed by the Public Managers Association at the time that the commitment was made to Hercules for operational funding. There was no agreement among the Public Managers Association to extend the same commitment to Oakley. The commitment to Hercules was made because of the assumption that there would not be sufficient property tax revenue growth to support the costs of an additional library operation in the West Region. However, it was discussed that property tax growth would be expected in the East Region and such growth would be allocated at the discretion of the East Region Library Board. The need for operational funding for a new east county library, such as one in Oakley, could then be considered for funding by the East Region Library Board. q:\reorg\bos7897.doc t � 7 TO: BOARD OF SUPERVISORS tom/' ` - `, ' CONTRA n FROM: Phil Batchelor COSTA "'� v, ' ' County Administrator . .5 y4 COUNTY DATE: July 8, 1997 CO U' SUBJECT: Authorization for the Moraga-Orinda Fire Protection District to Participate in the Contra Costa County Joint Powers Insurance Authority (JPA) SPECIFIC REQUEST(S) OR RECOMMENDATION(S)& BACKGROUND AND JUSTIFICATION RECOMMENDATIONS . AUTHORIZE the Moraga-Orinda Fire Protection District to join the Contra Costa County Joint Powers Insurance Authority (JPA). BACKGROUND/REASON(S) FOR RECOMMENDATION(S): On July 1, 1988, the Board of Supervisors, representing the County and its Special Districts and two Independent Fire Protection Districts, executed a Joint Powers Agreement providing public liability and other self-insurance programs. The Independent Moraga-Orinda Fire Protection District(M-OFPD) has requested authorization to participate in the County Joint Powers Insurance Authority. Prior to July 1, 1997, the M-OFPD was formerly the County- governed Moraga and Orinda Fire Protection Districts. These former County districts were members of the JPA. On June 24, 1997, the Board of Supervisors authorized the continued provision of insurance coverage for M-OFPD effective July 1, 1997, subject to the condition that the new District apply to join the JPA by July 3, 1997. On July 1, 1997, the Board of Directors of the new District met and approved application to join the JPA. Accordingly, it is recommended that the M-OFPD be authorized to join the JPA.
