6. DIRECT staff to post on the County website a single Fair Political Practices Commission (FPPC) Form 806,
which lists all the paid appointed positions on committees, boards, or commissions for members of the Board of
Supervisors. When there is a change in compensation or a new appointment, DIRECT staff to update the Form
806 to reflect the change. The form must be updated promptly as changes occur.
7. AUTHORIZE the Chair of the Board to designate one or more members of the Board of Supervisors as
delegates from Contra Costa County to the National Association of Counties (NACo) Legislative Meeting to be
held on February 25 - March 1, 2017 in Washington, D.C. and to the NACo Annual Conference to be held July 21
- 24, 2017 in Columbus, Ohio.
FISCAL IMPACT:
No fiscal impact to the County from this action.
BACKGROUND:
Each year when the Board of Supervisors reorganizes, the incoming Chair reviews and makes recommendations
to the Board on committee assignments. The annual review of committee assignments is governed by a policy
(Attachment I) adopted by the Board in March 2000.
Transmitted herewith are my recommendations, as Board Chair, for 2017. These recommendations (Attachment
II) seek to provide policy oversight for all major County functional areas, balance the workload of the Supervisors,
and consider some of the outstanding responsibilities and appointments of the Supervisors on regional and other
bodies.
FPPC Form 806
In April 2012, the Fair Political Practices Commission (FPPC) adopted Regulation § 18705.5, which permits a
Supervisor to vote on his/her own appointment to a body or board paying a salary or stipend for service if all of
the following conditions are met:
1. the appointment is to a committee, board, or commission of a public agency, a special district, a joint
powers agency or authority, or a metropolitan planning organization; and
2. State law, a local ordinance, or a joint powers agreement requires the Board to appoint; and
3. the Board adopts and posts on its website, a list of each appointed position for which compensation is
paid, the salary or stipend for the position, the name of the appointee, the name of the alternate, if any, and
the term of the appointment.
Form 806 is used to report additional compensation that officials receive when appointing themselves to positions
on committees, boards, or commissions of a public agency, special district, and joint powers agency or authority.
Each agency must post on its website a single Form 806, listing all of the paid appointed positions. When there is
a change in compensation or a new appointment, the Form 806 is updated to reflect the change. The form must be
updated promptly as changes occur.
Staff of the County Administrator's Office has prepared the Form 806 and has posted it to the County's website.
Staff will update the form after the Board of Supervisors acts to adopt the Master List of Board Member
Committee Assignments for 2017.
CONSEQUENCE OF NEGATIVE ACTION:
Unless the Board of Supervisors acts to adopt a Master List of appointments to committees, special county
committees, and regional boards/committees/commissions, there is no official roster of Board member
appointments to these bodies.

WHEREAS each year when the Board of Supervisors reorganizes, the incoming Chair reviews and makes recommendations to
the Board on committee assignments. The annual review of committee assignments is governed by a policy adopted by the

BOARD OF SUPERVISORS POLICY ON
BOARD MEMBER COMMITTEE ASSIGNMENTS
Adopted on March 21, 2000
1. Board Committee appointments shall be categorized in accordance with the following
descriptions and delineated as on the attached listing:
a) Internal appointments that are subject to the annual reorganization process and to
which the incoming Chair of the Board of Supervisors makes nominations to be
approved by the Board of Supervisors. Ad Hoc committees of the Board also fall
under this category.
b) Regional appointments that are not subject to the annual reorganization process and
to which the Chair of the Board of Supervisors makes nominations to fill vacancies,
as they occur, in accordance with the agency's terms and by-laws, and which
nominations shall be approved by the Board of Supervisors.
c) Special Case/Restricted appointments, for which the specific assignments are
dictated or are in some way restricted by statute or county ordinance, or for which the
term of the appointment makes it impractical for it to be considered along with the
other annual assignments e.g., a term that runs from July to June. Restrictions might
include, for example, that a committee member represent a certain district, be the
Chair of the Board, or vest in the Chair of the Board the authority to appoint an
alternate.
The Chair of the Board of Supervisors shall make nominations to these appointments
to fill vacancies, as they occur, subject to any legislated restrictions, and which
nominations shall be approved by the Board of Supervisors.
2. Notwithstanding Paragraph 1 of this policy and as allowed by law, the Board of
Supervisors maintains its right to nominate, reconsider and change appointments at any
time, irrespective of the term of an appointment.
3. All nominations approved by the Board of Supervisors shall be incorporated in three
attachments to an annually adopted Master Resolution covering committee appointments
from all three categories: Internal, Regional and Special Case/Restricted. For
administrative ease, the Master Resolution shall be amended and re-adopted from time to
time as terms expire or if new appointments are made. The Master Resolution shall
always reflect the complete roster of Board member appointments and shall be available
to the public.

Porter-Cologne Water Quality Act, and the State and Federal Endangered Species Acts. All studies must meet the
California Department of Transportation Local Assistance requirements, as well as state and federal requirements.
The Project is located within the East Contra Costa County Habitat Conservation Plan/Natural Community
Conservation Plan (HCP/NCCP) area, which also requires specialized assessments and surveys pursuant to the East
Contra Costa County Habitat Conservation Plan/Natural Community Conservation Plan.
On April 25, 2013, the Public Works Department entered into a contract with LSA Associates, Inc., in an amount not

On April 21, 2015, Contract Amendment No. 1 was approved to extend the contract to December 31, 2015.

All other terms and conditions of the original Contract, Amendment Numbers 1, 2, 3 and this amendment between the
County and the Contractor not modified by this contract amendment shall remain in full force and effect.

BACKGROUND: (CONT'D)
$600,000 in Active Transportation Program (ATP) funds from the State which allowed this underfunded project
to go to construction. As part of the ATP grant requirements, the County is required to partner with the local
California Conservation Corps (CCC). CCC is a state agency that provides work experience to adults to develop
their project management skills, teamwork, and project execution.
The CCC has indicated their desire to remove the trees needed for the project to move forward. In accordance with
the Migratory Bird Treaty Act, tree removal work for the project should be completed before February 1, 2017 in
order to avoid nesting bird season.
CONSEQUENCE OF NEGATIVE ACTION:
If the contract is not approved, future ATP grant applications may be penalized since the County did not partner

In the matter of:Resolution No. 2017/12
Honoring the Greater Richmond Interfaith Project (GRIP) on their 50 year anniversary of serving Contra Costa
County.
Whereas, the Greater Richmond Interfaith Program (GRIP) is an interfaith, interracial coalition of 38
member congregations – Buddhists, Christians, Jews, Muslims and Sikh – working together to address
critical issues of human dignity and social justice in Contra Costa County since 1966; and
Whereas, for 50 years GRIP has provided services and shelter to Contra Costa County’s hungry and
homeless and has had a significant impact on our community’s special needs population by offering faith
assistance and services to people of need through housing development, public services and economic
opportunities; and
Whereas, GRIP’s service delivery was enhanced in 2006 upon opening a new 12,000 square feet “Souper
Center” Family Housing and Supportive Services Center, a one-stop, integrated service delivery facility
providing 75 beds for emergency shelter and transitional housing; and
Whereas, GRIP’s work is supported by a network of over 400 volunteers from their member congregations
and “friends of GRIP,” who perform tasks ranging from preparing and serving meals to coordinating
activities with shelter guests; and
Whereas, in fulfillment of its mission and purpose to unite peoples’ thoughts and actions to work together to
address issues of racial unrest, economic disparity and social injustice, GRIP has sponsored the “Harmony
Walk to End Hunger and Homelessness” since 1986 providing opportunity for congregations and
community to raise awareness and funds to support the needs of the homeless and hungry in our midst; and
Now therefore, be it resolved that the County of Contra Costa does hereby honor the Greater Richmond Interfaith Program on
50 years of service to Contra Costa County community.

County
Subject:Communication to the Senate Committee on Transportation and Housing regarding SB632 (Cannella - 2015)
January 10, 2017 BOS Official Minutes 94
BACKGROUND:
Beginning in 2014 the County initiated an effort to reform or otherwise revise school zone statutes in order to
increase safety around schools. This effort was a result of two related issues, 1) school siting practices in East
Contra Costa County, and 2) the State's lack of progress in reforming or otherwise improving school siting
policies and practices. Legislation was drafted and went through the County's annual platform development
process. Additional background, support for, and need for the concept is documented in the School Zone
Enhancement Legislative Proposal form which is attached: DCD 2015 Legislative Proposal Form Re School
Zones.pdf
The County's efforts resulted in SB 632 (Cannella, Coauthors: Baker, Bonilla) being introduced in 2015. The bill
would have allowed jurisdictions to expand school zones as determined by an engineering and traffic survey as
well as revise the problematic "when children are present" language in the Vehicle Code.
Due to the technical nature of legislation, the Senate Committee on Transportation & Housing (Senate T&H)
referred the legislation to the California Traffic Control Device Committee (CTCDC) for review. The CTCDC is
the advisory committee that Caltrans uses to fulfill its obligation to consult with local agencies and the public,
before adopting rules and regulations prescribing uniform standards and specifications for all official traffic
control devices used in California.
The CTCDC formed a "School Zone Subcommittee" to respond to the Senate referral and invited Contra Costa
County staff to participate. The subcommittee met numerous times during 2016 to discuss the issue. The work of
the subcommittee resulted in the attached draft response to the Senate T&H. (CTCDC to Senate T&H ReSchool
Zone-SB632.pdf)
County staff believes that there are numerous technical and procedural problems with the CTCDC's handling of
the issue and proposed response to the Senate T&H. County staff went on record with the CTCDC on many
occasions regarding the concerns. A substantial amount of data and evidence were provided by County staff
during the deliberation of the legislation, the CTCDC consistently failed to discuss or even acknowledge the
information. County input does not appear to have had any effect on the dialog or outcome.
Issues with the CTCDC Process/Recommendations
School Zone Size Recommendation is in Direct Conflict with the School Zone Subcommittee Stated
Intent: At the outset of the subcommittees work on the school zone issue the group unanimously agreed that
1) the existing distances in the statutes were arbitrary, and 2) whatever recommendations the CTCDC were
to make would not be arbitrary. The recommended changes in the letter to the Senate remain arbitrary in
conflict with the agreement of the subcommittee.
Local Authority Regarding School Zone Establisment is in Direct Conflict of CTCDC Agreement:
Originally the subcommittee was in agreement that affording local jurisdictions flexibility to determine the
size of the zone was a positive characteristic of the bill. Ultimately the recommendation did not support the
flexibility afforded to the local jurisdictions in the bill.
"When Children Are Present" (WCP) Signage: Discussions at previous CTCDC meetings have
established that the the Committee is aware that there are substantial, fundamental problems with the WCP
signage. Yet, in the letter to Senate T&H, no change is recommended in the statues and no mention is made
of the flaws the CTCDC finds with the the existing language.
In defense of the CTCDC, the issues in SB 632 are relatively complex. It appeared that the Committee did not
have adequate resources to dedicate to the issues addressed by the bill. In discussions with Mark Watts (the
County's legislative advocate for transportation issues) on December 8, 2016, the Transportation, Water, and
Infrastructure Committee determined that a letter to the State from the County on the matter would be appropriate.
The attached letter to the Senate Committee requests that the input from the CTCDC be set aside and further
requests that the issue be referred to Caltrans and the California Department of Public Health for a comprehensive
review with appropriate resources, analysis and outreach. The numerous, fundamental changes in state
January 10, 2017 BOS Official Minutes 95
transportation policy (complete streets, active transportation, safe routes to school, health in all policies,
greenhouse gas reduction, smart mobility framework, vision zero/toward zero deaths) and public health data now
available strongly suggest that the subject statutes be revisited in an appropriate manner.
The concepts in SB 632 are consistent with our 2016 Legislative Platform:
Transportation: 179: SUPPORT efforts to improve safety throughout the transportation system...the County also
supports the expansion of school safety improvement programs such as crossing guards, revised school zone
references in the vehicle code...
CONSEQUENCE OF NEGATIVE ACTION:
Without approving transmittal of the letter, the Board will forgo an opportunity to advance its legislative platform.
CHILDREN'S IMPACT STATEMENT:
Promoting increased safety around schools and encouraging more walking and bicycling to school will better
integrate our education facilities with their surrounding community. Anticipated outcomes are increased walk/bike
rates to school and as a result healthier children.

Legislation authorizing enhanced (size and penalties)
school zones that will facilitate children walking and
biking to/from K-12 schools.
Check one: State Platform [ x ] Federal Platform [ ]
Dept. Priority: ____ of ____ (e.g. 1 of 3)
I. Summary of Proposal:
Please briefly describe the proposal and include the following information (where applicable):
Prior efforts to secure State or Federal assistance for the issue
This proposal is an outgrowth of a long standing County effort to
encourage the State to reform school siting practices. Due to
substantial institutional resistance to this reform effort, staff
examined other mechanisms to improve school safety. That examination
resulted in this proposal. Prior efforts include:
1. Meeting with Department of Education staff to discuss solutions
to school siting problems.
2. Meeting with members of our legislative delegation to address
the issue.
3. Submitting legislative proposals to our legislative delegation.
Compelling factors for the proposal that merit State or Federal assistance
1. Policy changes being sought are addressed in the vehicle code
necessitating involvement of the state.
2. Consistent local, statewide, national, and international data
suggest that the proposal is an evidence-based solution to
address the low K-12 bike rates.
3. The need to raise the bike/walk rates is broadly accepted in
the planning and public policy field as evidenced by the
popularity of Safe Routes to School (SR2S) Programs.
4. Changes to the state’s school siting practices do not appear
imminent.
5. The proposal is directly supported in the 2014 Contra Costa
County State Legislative Platform. 1
1 “141: SUPPORT efforts to improve safety throughout the transportation system. … The County also supports the
expansion of school safety improvement programs such as crossing guards, revised school zone references in the
vehicle code, Safe Routes to Schools (SR2S) grants…”

Consequences if State or Federal assistance is not provided
The status quo (low K-12 walk/bike rates), generally understood to be
unacceptable, will continue.
Existing countywide public investments in safe routes to school projects
and programs will continue to underperform in terms of return on
investment.
Steps taken locally to advance issue
1. Staff submitted a similar 2015 legislative proposal to the
California State Association of Counties (CSAC). The school
siting reform issue was added to CSACs 2014 legislative
platform at the request of Contra Costa County. The
Transportation, Water and Infrastructure Committee discussed
the proposal and approved submitting the document to CSAC.
2. Staff is coordinating with the Metropolitan Transportation
Commission (MTC) to support the proposal. The school siting
reform issue was added to MTCs 2014 legislative platform at the
request of Contra Costa County.
3. Meeting with the County Engineers Association of California
(CEAC) at their policy conference to solicit feedback and
support for the School Zone Enhancement Proposal.
4. Staff is currently coordinating with professional counterparts
in other interested/affected counties. Thus far staff level
support from 4-5 other counties has been confirmed.
5. The Board of Supervisors, in their draft 2014 Countywide
Transportation plan comment letter, requested support on the
proposal from the countywide transportation authority (Contra
Costa Transportation Authority – CCTA).
II. Action Requested:
Briefly describe the specific State/Federal assistance requested, e.g. a specified amount of
funding for a particular purpose, a change in law promoting a particular outcome, etc.
a. Affected Code Sections (if known):
California Vehicle Code (CVC) Section 22352: States that the
maximum speed limit is 25 mph “when approaching or passing a
school building or the grounds thereof, contiguous to a highway
and posted with a standard ‘SCHOOL’ warning sign, while children
are going to or leaving the school either during school hours or
during the noon recess period.”
CVC Section 22358.4: Based on traffic survey results, the maximum
speed limit can be reduced to 15 mph up to 500 feet away from a
school and to 25 mph from 500 to 1,000 feet away from a school.

and the highway is posted with a school warning sign that indicates a
speed limit of 25 miles per hour.
22358.4. (#) Notwithstanding the maximum distance established in this
section (22358.4), a local authority may, upon the basis of a travel
survey documenting school attendance boundaries and/or travel patterns
to and from a school, extend the maximum distance to establish a prima
facie speed limit and school warning signs, as defined in section
22358.4, to a distance and/or specific locations consistent with the
findings of the travel survey.
III. Fiscal Impact:
By design, this proposal is a minor increment built upon existing
obligations and activities. That said, fiscal impacts are
estimated to be minimal and as follows:
a. County
Public Works Departments will have an obligation to increase the
number of signs in school areas.
Additional activities are authorized under this proposal (a
travel study to supporting further expansion of the school zone)
but they are not compulsory and would only be undertaken at the
discretion of the agency.
b. State (if applicable)
None.
c. Other (if applicable)
Violators would face increased penalties.
IV. Anticipated Supporters of proposal:
Supporters are likely to include state/local jurisdictions and
NGOs that prioritize programs such as SR2S, active
transportation, traffic safety, childhood obesity intervention,
complete streets, etc. Due to recent legislation (AB1358 [2008],
AB32/SB 375 [2006/2008]) that either directly or indirectly
encourage a shift to non-motorized travel, support for the
proposal should be broad.
V. Anticipated Opponents of proposal:
Opposition is likely to include the California Department of
Transportation (Caltrans) and the California Highway Patrol who
have opposed enhanced fine zones in the past.
The original proposal relied on an increase in fines in the
school zone to encourage lower speeds. In September 2014 the

Governor vetoed SB 1151 (Cannella) which increased the fines in
school zones. In his veto message the Governor indicated his
opposition to increases in fines. In response to the Governor’s
opposition to fines, staff is proposing enhanced drivers
license/point implications for infractions in a school zone.
VI. Position on proposal by CSAC or League of California Cities (if available):
Pending. Staff attended the CEAC policy conference in September
and received feedback. Staff is currently revising the proposal
to be responsive to the comments and intend on bringing the
proposal back to CSAC for reconsideration and support.
VII. Prior History of Proposal (if any):
This specific proposal has never been submitted to the state.
Analogous proposals that may be instructive for this proposal include:
SB 1151 (Cannella): The bill was vetoed by the Governor in September
2014. It would have increased fines in the school zone. The Governor,
in his veto message, indicated that he supports increased safety in
school zones but opposes increases in fines. The County had a position
of “Support and Request Amendment” on this bill.
In response to the Governor’s opposition to fines, staff is proposing
enhanced drivers license/point implications for infractions in a
school zone.
AB 1886 (2002): The bill authorized a pilot program in Santa Barbara,
Ventura, and Alameda Counties, which “would double or increase the
fines as described above for a designated violation occurring in a
specially posted school zone, as specified.” Fines collected from
this violation were used to fund bicycle and pedestrian safety
programs. This statute was allowed to sunset in 2007.
The post-mortem report to the legislature on the program (by CHP) did
not endorse the program, “…the findings do not support continuation of
the program…” Observations on the pilot program and the post-mortem
report:
The estimated cost to implement the program described in the post-
mortem report characterizes sign installation as “very costly”. In
response:
1. Some of the Options/Alternatives proposed in the report are more
expensive than the signage (traffic calming for example),
2. The Options/Alternatives in the report include signage, despite
being flagged as “very costly” earlier in the report.
3. Signage is regularly considered a low cost solution.
Questioning the effectiveness of increased fines and additional
signage is to question, essentially, the effectiveness of a major

component of traffic control worldwide. The proposal is a minor
incremental extension of a pervasive system that is broadly and
reasonably assumed to have some measure of effectiveness.
The threshold for the determination of “costly” may be unrealistic in
the report.
Limited (observed) benefits from the pilot may be due to minimal

SB 632, as introduced, Cannella. Vehicles: prima facie speed limits:
schools.
(1) Existing law establishes a 25 miles per hour prima facie limit
when approaching or passing a school building or the grounds thereof,
contiguous to a highway and posted up to 500 feet away from the school
grounds, with a standard “SCHOOL” warning sign, while children are
going to or leaving the school either during school hours or during the
noon recess period. The prima facie limit also applies when approaching
or passing school grounds that are not separated from the highway by
a fence, gate, or other physical barrier while the grounds are in use by
children and the highway is posted with a standard “SCHOOL” warning
sign. A violation of that prima facie limit is an infraction.
Existing law additionally allows a city or county to establish in a
residence district, on a highway with a posted speed limit of 30 miles
per hour or slower, a 15 miles per hour prima facie limit when
approaching, at a distance of less than 500 feet from, or passing, a school
building or the grounds thereof, contiguous to a highway and posted
with a school warning sign that indicates a speed limit of 15 miles per
hour, while children are going to or leaving the school, either during
school hours or during the noon recess period. The prima facie limit
would also apply when approaching, at that same distance, or passing

and the highway is posted with one of those signs.
Existing law additionally allows a city or county to establish in a
residence district, on a highway with a posted speed limit of 30 miles

approaching at a distance of 500 to 1,000 feet from a school building
or grounds thereof, contiguous to a highway and posted with a school
warning sign that indicates a speed limit of 25 miles per hour, while
children are going to or leaving the school, either during school hours

when approaching, at that same distance, or passing school grounds
that are not separated from the highway by a fence, gate, or other

This bill would allow a city or county to establish in a residence
district, on a highway with a posted speed limit of 30 miles per hour or
slower, a 15 miles per hour prima facie speed limit when approaching,
at a distance of less than 1,320 feet from, or passing, a school building
or grounds thereof, contiguous of to a highway and posted with a school
warning sign that indicates a speed limit of 15 miles per hour 24 hours

in a residence district, on a highway, with a posted speed limit of 30
miles per hour or slower, applies, as to those local authorities, when
approaching, at a distance of 500 to 1,320 feet from a school building
or grounds thereof. This bill would also authorize a local authority, on
the basis of an engineering and traffic survey, to extend the maximum
distance to establish a prima facie speed limit and school warning signs,
as specified. This bill would also allow the 15 miles per hour or 25
miles per hour prima facie speed limit to apply 24 hours a day.
By authorizing a change in the prima facie limits, the bill would
expand the scope of an existing crime, thereby imposing a
state-mandated local program.
(2) The California Constitution requires the state to reimburse local
agencies and school districts for certain costs mandated by the state.
Statutory provisions establish procedures for making that reimbursement.
This bill would provide that no reimbursement is required by this act
for a specified reason.

Dear Senator Beall & Senator C ann ella:
The Senate Committee on Transpmtation and Hou sing ha d requested the Califomia Traffic Contro l
Devices Conunittee (CTCDC) to review and examine cunent language in the Ca lifomia Vehicle
Code (CV C) regarding school zones and the conditions when schoo l spe ed limit is in effect in
Septemb er 2015 and repmt back in 201 6. The reques t was rega rdin g ex tending the school zone and
school speed litnit signing changes.
A CTCDC subcommittee was fo nned in Decemb er 201 5 to exa mine these topics and co nsider if
there is a need to revi se the e ve language. Thi s subcommittee has spent numerous hours and had
thoroughly vetted th e issue s swrounding extending the school zones and proposed change "when
children are present" standards . In the e Te De meeting held on June 30, 201 6, the recommendati ons
of the subco mmittee were app roved by the e Te DC members. The exi sti ng laws and the
reconunendations of the subco mmittee as pertaining to the length of the schoo l zone and when school
zone spee d limit is in effect are provided below.

Recommendation from the subcommitte e:
Maintain the existing law and add the following text to the CVC:
• On any roadway approaching a school, school zones may be extended to 300 feet beyond an
uncontro lled school crosswalk (marked sch ool crosswalk without traffic control) that is
located up to 1000 feet fi:om the school grounds w hen all of the following conditions are
met
1. The uncontrolled marked school crosswalk is b etween 500 feet and 1000 feet fl'om
the school grounds and is located where there is no existing traffic contwl, and
2 . based on an engineering and traffic s tudy that demonstrates a collision history with
school-aged pedestrians or school-aged bicyclists going to or from the school
grounds, and
3. based on an engineering and traffic s tudy, that i t is n ot w ananted to install a protected
crosswalk with traffic control devices such as stop signs, signals or pedestrian hybrid
beacons or implement other measures su ch as a roundabout at that location or move
the unprotected crosswalk as close to the school grou nds as practicable , and
4. the route i s designated as a. Safe Routes to School route, and
5 . there does not exist a crosswalk closer to the school grounds which can serve the need
of schoo l-aged p edestrians to cross the roadway.
• Notwithstanding any other provision of law, a local aut hority may not declare a speed limit
of l ess than 25 mph where a school zone has been extended to greater than 500 feet fi:om
school gro unds . (same as cunent law)
Support : The above additional text eliminates the restriction on extending the school zone up to 1000
feet to on ly locations in a residence district with a posted speed limit of 30 mph or less, and allows
extending the school zone up to 1000 feet on any roadway or 1300 feet with an un controlled crosswalk,
with the restriction that it be for the purpose of slowing tTaffic where children are crossing the roadway
in an unprotected crosswalk.

Subject: California Traffic Control Device Committee Review of Senate Bill 632 (Cannella)
Dear Senator Beall:
On behalf of the Contra Costa County Board of Supervisors, I am writing to inform you of the County’s
concerns regarding the California Traffic Control Device Committee’s (CTCDC) review of Senate Bill 632
(Cannella/2015). SB 632 addresses, among other issues, school area safety by authorizing local jurisdictions
to size the school zone to reflect on-the-ground realities. As you are aware, the Senate Transportation &
Housing Committee (Senate T & H hereafter) referred the item to the CTCDC for review due to the
technical issues addressed in the Bill.
The CTCDC formed a school zone subcommittee to respond to Senate T & H and Contra Costa County
was invited to participate in the effort. The work of the subcommittee resulted in the attached draft response
to the Senate T&H. County staff believes the CTCDC recommendations, and the process to come up with
those recommendations, are flawed. The County went on record with the CTCDC as such on several
occasions. The County’s input, accompanied by a substantial amount of evidence and data, was not
discussed and did not have any effect on the dialog or outcome. That said, we believe the response from
the CTCDC is wholly inadequate. A summary of our specific concerns:
School Zone Size Recommendation is in Direct Conflict with the School Zone Subcommittee Stated
Objective: At the outset of the CTCDC’s School Zone Subcommittee’s work on the school zone issue the
group unanimously agreed that 1) the existing distances in the statutes were arbitrary, and 2) whatever
recommendations the CTCDC were to make could not be arbitrary but rather evidence-based. The
recommended changes in the letter to the Senate remain arbitrary in conflict with the original, rational
agreement.
Local Authority Regarding School Zone Establishment is in Direct Conflict of CTCDC Stated
Objective: At the outset, the Committee was in agreement that affording local jurisdictions flexibility to
determine the size of the zone was a desirable characteristic of the bill. Despite this, the CTCDC
recommendation did not support the flexibility afforded to the local jurisdictions in the bill.
"When Children Are Present" (WCP) Signage: Discussions at the CTCDC established that the
Committee is well aware there are substantial, fundamental problems with the WCP signage. Yet, in the
letter to Senate T&H, no change is recommended in the underlying statues and no mention is made of the
known flaws of the WCP signage.

In defense of the CTCDC, the issues in SB 632 are complex. Given the ultimate deviation of the CTCDC
from their original, admirable response objectives (discussed above), it appears that the Committee did not
have the resources to give the bill and underlying issues the appropriate level of attention.
The County respectfully requests that the Senate Transportation & Housing Committee set aside the
response from the CTCDC and refer the issue to Caltrans and the Department of Public Health for a
comprehensive review with appropriate resources, analysis and outreach. The numerous, fundamental
changes in state transportation policy (complete streets, active transportation, safe routes to school, health
in all policies, greenhouse gas reduction, smart mobility framework, vision zero/toward zero deaths) and
public health data now available, all strongly indicate that the statutes addressed in SB 632 should be
reviewed in an appropriately substantive manner.
While the bill is not currently active, it is entirely likely that the concepts in the bill will be re-introduced
at a later date. These issues must be addressed if we are to make progress on school area safety and increase
the walk/bike rates of students traveling to and from school. The County believes that now is the time to
progress on these issues.

Background and Response to Comments/Questions from the 2/9/16 CTCDC
School Zone Subcommittee Conference Call, and Responses to the 2/27/15
Senate Analysis on SB 632
Summary
This memo is a follow-up to the February 9th conference call with the School Zone
Subcommittee of the CTCDC regarding the subject legislation. There were some questions and
observations during the call that am responding to in this memo. In addition, I am providing a
response to the 2/27/15 analysis on the bill by Erin Riches.
Please refer to my February 4th memo (attached) for the general background on the goals of the
bill. That memo also responds to questions from the January 29th conference call.
To expand on the previously provided background and clarify some possible misunderstandings
of the bill that I observed during the conference call, please consider:
SB 632 is not intended to be an incremental fix to minor issue in the code. The intent is to be
transformational. The bill will assist in the effort to reverse the decline of children walking
and cycling to school. As established in the February 4th memo, SB 632 targets the largest
unaddressed barrier in this effort, which is children being prevented from using active modes
for the trip to/from school because of driver behavior or speeding.
While the bill is meant to target the specific school trip-related speeding problem, it also
addresses a much broader speeding problem as established by several advocacy organizations
referenced in the February 4th memo. These organizations include American Automobile
Association (AAA) for Traffic Safety. Furthermore, the solution represented by the bill is
consistent with the recommendations to solving the problem put forward by the AAA
Foundation, which is to address the problem in small, targeted areas with public support.
January 10, 2017 BOS Official Minutes 113
2/9/16 Subcommittee Conference Call Follow Up/Responses:
Comment: Debate regarding the size of the school zone.
Response: The existing school zone distances and statutes recognize that students need some
additional safety and protection. There is physiological and epidemiological evidence to support
this need as established in the February 4th memo. As a CTCDC member pointed out, there was
no engineering or analysis when the original prescriptive distances in the statutes were
established. That said, we now have the opportunity to objectively develop those distances.
In developing an objective recommendation I would encourage the Committee to consider:
The 500’, 1000’ distances in the code are arbitrary. There is no argument for the extra
protection afforded by the school zone to end after these distances.
In addition to the aforementioned physiological and epidemiological evidence, I believe it is
also self-evident that the protection is needed from origin to destination (OD).
The 1320’ proposal being discussed by the Committee has some data supporting it. However,
relative to the need for protection during the entire OD trip, dropping the protection after
1320’ is still arbitrary.
The OD routes are best established by the local jurisdiction. The flexibility found in SB 632
reflects this.
- - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - -
Comment: Concerns with extending the school zone to such a distance that it is no longer
associated with a school.
Response: I agree with the concern and encourage the Committee to recommend to the
legislature that the school zone be decoupled from schools and establish a “neighborhood zone”
or “slow zone”. This would be consistent with policies in other jurisdictions1 and would allow
the zones to be extended to other areas with similar needs such as around parks, senior centers,
etc.
- - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - -
Comment: The real solution to speeding is enforcement (automated safety/speed enforcement or
cameras), we shouldn’t focus on signage until adequate enforcement is present. (paraphrased)
Response: Currently, the school zones are inadequate as previously discussed. In order for
enforcement to be effective, the school zone statutes need to be reformed.
1 New York City, United Kingdom, Austria (kilometers per hour)
January 10, 2017 BOS Official Minutes 114
There is no single solution that is going to gain the desired effect, which is to increase safety and
the walk/bike rate of children traveling to/from school. Any single solution or tool can be taken
in isolation and characterized as “not solving the problem” and discounted. With that approach,
each and every tool could be disregarded. A diversity of tools needs to be made available.
It is not defensible to withhold an improved tool, expanded school zones in this case, in the hope
that some other tool is developed. The Committee has the authority and responsibility to improve
the statutes. I believe it should make full use of that opportunity even if the improvement may be
small or ultimately overshadowed by some future solution.
- - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - -
Comment: Concerns with affording local public works departments too much flexibility in
determining the size of the zone.
Response: Originally the Committee was in agreement that affording local jurisdictions
flexibility to determine the size of the zone was a positive characteristic of the bill. However,
during the February 9th conference call, some Committee members expressed concern with
affording local jurisdictions “too much flexibility”. I believe some justification or explanation for
this concern should be provided.
If there is concern that the statutory changes would be used inappropriately, to blanket an entire
city for example, an easily implemented and reasonable restriction would be to limit the use of
the zone to a schools attendance boundary.
- - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - -
Comment: What should the recommendation be regarding When Children Are Present (WCP)
signage?
Response: I believe a critical question the Committee must answer in developing a
recommendation is, when is it acceptable or safe to assume children are not present?
The ambiguities and weaknesses of the WCP signage are numerous and have been discussed at
length so I won’t repeat them here. I believe the answer to the question to be, only during very
limited times is it safe to make that assumption. That answer suggests that the WCP signage
should be replaced by hourly restrictions.
These restrictions would best be established by local jurisdictions which is consistent with the
current language in the bill regarding the definition of the size of the zone.
- - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - -
Response to the 2/27/15 Analysis
Comment: The author states that existing law, which authorizes speed limit reductions within
500 to 1,000 feet of a school, does not reflect actual pedestrian or bicycle access or use patterns
and is inconsistent with the state’s Health in All Policies initiative.
January 10, 2017 BOS Official Minutes 115
Response: The observation is correct2. In addition, the changes in the bill are supportive of
numerous other statewide policies and efforts including the Active Transportation Program, Safe
Routes to School, and greenhouse gas reduction efforts.
- - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - -
Comment: 24/7 school zones? …overlapping school zones….
Response: The proposal to replace WCP signage with hourly restrictions responds to the
comment regarding 24/7 school zones.
The author is correct, overlapping zones may occur. I believe this to be a defensible scenario so
long as it is based on an engineering and traffic survey and the aforementioned proposal of
limiting the zone to school attendance boundaries is put in place.
- - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - -
Comment: Changing behavior or punishing it?
Response: The flaws with the 85th percentile method of setting speed are too numerous to
address in this memo. However, one particular weakness of the method is particularly acute in
school zone. That weakness is that drivers self-select speed based primarily on their (the
driver’s) comfort level. This comfort level does not reflect the comfort or safety of more
vulnerable road users sharing the road space with automobiles.
- - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - -
Comment: The author quoting testimony during a joint Senate/Assembly hearing entitled,
“Setting Speed Limits in California”: Speed limits that are set arbitrarily low would make
violators out of the majority of drivers and may cause drivers to disregard the limit altogether.
Reponses: As previously established, the speed zone is not “arbitrary”. Rather, there is a
demonstrable, physiologically sound need to reduce the speeds in the school zones.
Disregarding the speed limit is a violation. The existence of a violation, or increase in violations,
does not justify removing a statute or preventing the implementation of an expanded statute. It
speaks to a need for additional enforcement resources. That issue is not being discussed by the
Committee. Consistent with the language in the bill, local jurisdictions are best equipped to
determine if more enforcement is needed or if an expanded school zone is warranted.

SUBJECT: Senate Bill 632 (Cannella) Prima facie speed limits: schools
Background and Response to Comments/Questions from the 1/29/16 CTCDC
School Zone Subcommittee Conference Call
Summary
The memo is a follow up to the January 29th conference call with the School Zone Subcommittee of
the CTCDC regarding the subject legislation. During the call, there were questions regarding the
need for SB 632 and requests for data or other evidence supporting the bill. This memo responds to
these questions and requests.
I provide some background on the goals of the bill below, which will answer some of these
questions and should assist the Sub-Committee in understanding the context of the bill. Direct
responses to specific questions are provided after the goals.
The bill has three goals as follows:
Goal 1) Safety: The bill is intended to increase safety in school zones where it is probable that
automobiles will share the road with other, active modes. The increase in safety associated with
lowered vehicle speeds, and the need for this increase in safety, is supported by studies and
epidemiological data1.
1Increase in Safety: The connection between vehicle speed and likelihood of injury or
death is well established:
U.S. Department of Transportation, National Highway Traffic Safety Administration 2014
Literature Review on Vehicle Travel Speeds and Pedestrian Injuries: “Results indicated
that higher vehicle speeds are strongly associated with both a greater likelihood of
pedestrian crash occurrence and more serious resulting pedestrian injury. It was estimated
that only 5 percent of pedestrians would die when struck by a vehicle traveling at 20
miles per hour or less. This compares with fatality rates of 40, 80, and nearly 100
percent for striking speeds of 30, 40, and 50 mph or more respectively.”

Goal 2) Reverse the Decline of Children to Walking/Biking to School2: In addition to safety, the
bill is intended to increase the number of K-12 student-age children using active transportation
modes for the home/school/home trip.
Driver behavior (or speeding) is one of the two most commonly cited issues for children being
discouraged from traveling to/from school using active modes3. The other reason is proximity related
issues, more simply put: the distance between home and school is too great.
The subject legislation addresses driver behavior/speeding issues. The proximity issue is already
being actively addressed by other efforts at the state, regional, and local level. These efforts are
driven largely by state greenhouse gas related legislation4 and state school siting reform efforts5.
Goal 3) Address known issues in the vehicle code and the Manual on Uniform Traffic Control
Devices relative to “When Children Are Present” (WCP) signage: While no action was taken, the
discussion at the CTCDC’s February 19, 2014 meeting suggests the WCP policies are problematic. I
won’t quote the minutes back to the Committee, but the following are suggested/known issues with
the signage, some of which are consistent with the CTCDCs discussion:
“…children have a delay from the moment they make their decision to the moment they
begin to act on their decision, which can be dangerous for them during normal riding
conditions and emergency situations.” "Bicycle Safety Education for Children from a
Developmental and Learning Perspective" “Younger children are limited by their
physical, cognitive and social development, making them more vulnerable in road
traffic than adults. Because of their small stature, it can be difficult for children
to see surrounding traffic and for drivers and others to see them. In addition if they
are involved in a road traffic crash, their softer heads make them more susceptible to
serious head injury than adults. Younger children may have difficulties interpreting
various sights and sounds, which may impact on their judgement regarding the
proximity, speed and direction of moving vehicles.”
2 “How Children Get to School: School Travel Patterns From 1969 to 2009” National
Center for Safe Routes to School: In 1969, 48 percent of K-8th grade students usually
walked or bicycled to school. By 2009, only 13 percent of K-8th grade students usually
walked or bicycled to school.
3 The two most common reasons for children not being allowed to use active modes are
“proximity” and “traffic safety”:

traffic congestion and speeding around schools was the number one improvement that
administrators believe would do the most to encourage walking and biking to school.
This was also consistent among all four regional planning areas, where it ranked first
or second. Being accompanied by a parent was the only other condition that ranked in
the top five in all four regions.”

WCP signage unduly grants discretion to motorists as to when to adhere to a
posted/reduced speed limit and complicates law enforcements ability to enforce a lower speed
limit.
Schools are used for sports, community gatherings and other activities not tied to school
hours or year making WCP more difficult to interpret and anticipate.
Safety should not depend on the effectiveness of a motorist in identifying children, who
may or may not be visible, and who may not have physiological characteristics enabling them to
act in a rational or predictable manner (as evidenced in footnote 1 and 6).
It may be beneficial for the Committee to consider the following question; when, in a
residential area or school area, is it safe to assume children are NOT present?
To clarify, the original intent of the bill was to replace the WCP signage with appropriate hourly
restrictions, not wholesale elimination.
Note on Goals: Goal 1 and Goal 2 are related. Decisions by school administrators and parents to
discourage children from walking/biking to school are an intuitive reaction to the danger established
by the epidemiological data.
1/29/16 Subcommittee Conference Call Follow Up/Responses:
Comment: The one quarter mile (1,320’) expansion of the prescriptive size of the zone is
“arbitrary”. Some evidence or engineering should be provided to establish a nexus.
Response:
I agree that the legislative proposal should be based on evidence and data. This memo
provides a sample of data that establish the need. However, the existing figures in the statute
(500’/1000’) must also be subjected to the same evidenced-based test. This is consistent with the
comment heard during the subcommittee meeting, paraphrased, “…engineering wasn’t used
when the original statute and distances were established...”.
As mentioned during the conference call, the “quarter mile” distance is commonly used in
planning as the reasonable distance that people will walk to a destination. There is a body of
evidence that supports the figure.7 It is reasonable to assume that the distance students would
travel by bike is much greater than when walking. Given this, the 1320’ distance in the subject
bill could be viewed as a minimum figure.
There was a comment that the quarter mile change in the statute could be too far reaching.
I assume the comment is related to the cost or burden of expansive implementation. In writing
for the County (as one of the original contributors in the drafting of the legislation), we share this
6 Zeedyk, M. S., Wallace, L, & Spry, L., “Stop, look, listen, and think? What young
children really do when crossing the road,” Accident Analysis and Prevention, 34:43-50

concern. A phased approach, rather than the potential need for expansive replacement or
additional signage, may be more favorably received.
Some language that either 1) strikes the quarter-mile change, or 2) provides for a range of
distances (as suggested during the conference call), or 3) has the new distance only apply to new
school sites may be acceptable to the County so long as the ability to allow local jurisdictions the
flexibility8 to expand the zone based on an Engineering and Traffic Survey remain in the bill.
Ownership of the language now resides with the sponsoring legislator(s); we are in a position of
having to make that request to the sponsors. I realize this direction may be out of scope for the
subcommittee, but wanted to suggest the alternate approach.
Comment: What is the need for the change represented by the statute, and what is the backup?
Response: In addition to the school specific examples found in the text and footnotes above, a more
general need to control speeds is established in the documents summarized below:
Governor’s Highway Safety Association (GHSA)
National Forum on Speeding (2005) - Excerpts:
On suburban and urban roads, only 32-52 percent of traffic obeys the speed limit and the
85th percentile speed exceeds the speed limit by almost 10 mph.
Speeding is common, and on some roads almost universal. About 80 percent of all drivers
in NHTSA’s 2002 national survey reported they exceeded the posted speed limit on each
type of road -interstate, non-interstate, multi-lane, two-lane, and city streets- within the
past month, and about one-third reported this behavior on the day of the interview.
Participants agreed that raising the priority of speeding is perhaps the most important
step that can be taken.
Survey of the States: Speeding and Aggressive Driving (2012) - Excerpts:
GHSA recognizes the major role speed and aggressive driving play as contributors to
traffic death and injury.
The public’s attitude about speeding is enormously conflicted. A recent study has shown a
large disconnect between the significant majority of the public who condemn speeding
and the majority of drivers who admit to the behavior, making it a serious challenge to
create a safety-conscious environment in which speed limits are respected and obeyed.
Aggressive driving, which often involves speeding, is a great concern of motorists across
the country.
The action agenda included seven steps designed to…Set and achieve speed reduction
goals, focusing on the reduction of extreme speeders and/or all travel speeds in high risk
areas like school or work zones.
8 There was agreement during the conference call that affording local jurisdictions
flexibility was desirable.

American Automobile Association: Foundation for Traffic Safety:
“Improving Traffic Safety Culture in the United States - The Journey Forward” (2007) -
Excerpts:
All roads have speed limits, but they are routinely ignored. Most drivers habitually speed.
Speed limits traditionally are set at the 85th percentile travel speed: this means that
speeding drivers may help raise speed limits even higher... The speeding culture can be
changed by efforts at national, state, and local levels... implement speeding control
programs in selected target areas with strong public support, again built on solid data.”
Build programs on sound scientific principles rather than on intuition or political
expediency.
Start locally: municipalities and states can lead by implementing strategies to address
their specific traffic safety problems.
Comment: “kids don’t walk like they used to…it’s not happening anymore…fear of the
public…”.
Response: The comment summarizes the very purpose of the bill. As detailed further above in this
memo, driver behavior/unsafe speeds is the largest unaddressed gap in the effort to get
children using active modes for the home/school/home trip.
“Fear of the public” or “stranger danger” are cited in surveys examining mode choice by
students/parents/school administrators. However, this issue consistently ranks lower than proximity
and unsafe speeds.

RECOMMENDATION(S):
ADOPT Position Adjustment Resolution No. 22012 to add one (1) Clerk-Senior Level position (JWXC) at salary
level 3RX-1033 ($3,210-$4,100) in the Health Services Department. (Represented)
FISCAL IMPACT:
Upon approval, this action has an annual cost of approximately $86,487, which includes $17,478 in estimated pension
costs. The cost will be funded by 85% State California Children's Services funding and 15% General Fund
(budgeted).
BACKGROUND:
Children and young adults under 21 years of age who have certain medical conditions (congenital heart disease,
sickle cell anemia, cystic fibrosis, cleft palate, and HIV Infection) may be eligible for services under the California
Children’s Services (CCS). CCS is a Statewide program that serves this specific population that pays for their
medical care, equipment and rehabilitation needs.
The Public Health Division CCS Unit has an on-going need for clerical support and previously utilized temporary
staff. It has been determined that the program will be served better with a dedicated permanent Clerk-Senior Level
position. The Clerk-Senior Level will perform varied and complex clerical work of a highly responsible nature with
limited supervision and supports long-term staffing clerical needs.

Subject:APPOINTMENT OF COUNTY DIRECTOR OF CHILD SUPPORT SERVICES - MELINDA SELF
January 10, 2017 BOS Official Minutes 138
BACKGROUND:
In October of 2016, the County commenced a recruitment to fill the Director of Child Support Services – Exempt
position which has been filled by former Director of Child Support Services – Exempt and retired annuitant Linda
Dippel since her retirement.
On October 13, 2016, the recruitment for a new Director of Child Support Services began. The County advertised the
position nationwide but with particular emphasis on the west coast region. Ads were placed with the California State
Association of Counties (CSAC), the International City/County Management Association (ICMA), the Child Support
Directors’ Association (CSDA), the National Child Support Enforcement Association (NCSEA),
GovermentJobs.com, and LinkedIn. Invitations and recruitment brochures were also sent via electronic mail to a
number of potential candidates. The six (6) week recruitment garnered 48 applications. The applications were
screened and four (4) semi-finalists were forwarded to the County Selection Committee on December 15, 2016.
Steven Eldred, Director of Child Support Services, County of Orange, Dianne Dinsmore, Director of Human
Resources – Exempt, Contra Costa County, and I comprised the County Selection Committee.
Following the interviews and reference and background checks, I selected Melinda Self for the position.
Ms. Self holds a Bachelor’s Degree in Business Administration from the University of Phoenix and a Juris Doctor
from John F. Kennedy Law School. She currently serves as the Supervising Attorney and an Executive Team member
for the Contra Costa County Department of Child Support Services after holding posts of Managing Attorney for the
City and County of San Francisco, Department of Child Support Services, Advanced Child Support Services
Attorney for the Contra Costa County Department of Child Support Services, and Attorney/Partner for the firm of
Pedder, Stover, Hessletine, Walker & Self. Melinda is an active member of the Child Support Directors’ Association
serving on the Legal Practices and Attorney Faculty Training Committees. Ms. Self is the recipient of the 2015
Award of Appreciation for Dedication and Leadership as Committee Chair of the 2015 National Child Support
Attorney College, the 2013 CSDA Outstanding Individual Achievement Award for Manager/Supervisor for a
Statewide Impact and the 2005 WICSEC Outstanding Individual Achievement Award for Technical/Line Staff. As a
child support services professional serving in a number of capacities, Ms. Self brings with her 15 years of experience
in child support services administrative and management positions along with twenty-five (25) years of legal
expertise. Melinda looks to utilize her highly regarded technical and legal abilities and hands-on approach to lead
Costa County’s Department of Child Support Services and to continue to expand on its distinguished innovation and
automation.
CONSEQUENCE OF NEGATIVE ACTION:
The Director of Child Support Services – Exempt position will remain vacant.
January 10, 2017 BOS Official Minutes 139
RECOMMENDATION(S):
ADOPT Position Adjustment Resolution No. 22003 to cancel one (1) Sheriff's Aide (64VF) (represented) vacant
position #13560 at salary plan and grade VN5 1119 ($3,608-$4,385) and add one (1) Sheriff's Specialist (64VE)
(represented) position at salary plan and grade VN5 1285 ($4,252-$5,169) in the Sheriff's Office - Forensics Division.
FISCAL IMPACT:
An annual increase of $14,296 in the Sheriff’s Office, of which $2,569 is attributable to employer pension costs.
BACKGROUND:
The Forensics Division has experienced an upward shift in job duties due to the specialized nature and requirements
of their accrediting body. As Forensic Sciences continually evolve, the department requires personnel with a higher
level of expertise to perform in a capacity with a wide-ranging and complex set of responsibilities. The addition of a
Sheriff’s Specialist will help gather and analyze data, write and maintain accurate reports, learn and interpret
governmental rules and regulations pertaining to Forensic Sciences, and additional administrative duties in support of
the Forensics Division.

(ADTD) (unrepresented) position (#3819) at salary plan and grade B85 1585 ($5,562.76 - $7,454.63) from part-time
(32/40) to full-time in the County Administrator's Office.
FISCAL IMPACT:
$23,198 of which, $5,470 is attributable to employer pension costs. However, it is likely that a new hire will be filled
at step 1 of the salary range resulting little or no immediate cost increases.
BACKGROUND:
The position was vacated on January 6, 2017 resulting in the need to recruit qualified candidates to fill the position.
The position was originally full-time, but was reduced to part-time at the request of the prior incumbent. Today's
action restores the position to full-time status in anticipation of launching a recruitment and ultimately filling the
vacancy.

Subject:Reallocation of the Animal Services Officer, Sergeant and Lieutenant Classifications
January 10, 2017 BOS Official Minutes 155
BACKGROUND:
The Field Operations Division within the Animal Services Department has consistently had 4 - 8 Officer
vacancies, 1 Sergeant vacancy and 2 Lieutenant vacancies since fiscal year 2010 - 2011, leaving this Division
significantly understaffed. The difficulty in filling these vacancies has been attributed to the starting salary in each
classification, which was found to be lower than the average for comparable classifications in similar agencies.
The Officer classification currently has a 10 step salary range; the department is requesting to eliminate the first 3
steps, leaving the remaining 7 steps as the new salary range. The Sergeant classification currently has a 10 step
salary range; the department is requesting to eliminate the first 3 steps, leaving the remaining 7 steps as the new
salary range. Lastly, the Lieutenant classification currently has a 9 step salary range; the department is requesting
to eliminate the first 2 steps, leaving 7 steps as the new salary range, in addition to adjusting the final step (step 6
to step 7) from a 2.5% increase to a 5% increase. These changes will provide a more competitive starting salary in
each classification, which in turn will allow the department to more easily recruit and fill positions, as well as
improve current employee retention.
CONSEQUENCE OF NEGATIVE ACTION:
If this item is not approved, the Animal Services Department will continue to experience difficulty recruiting and
filling vacancies, as well as retaining employees in the Field Operations Division. This will cause the Department
to remain understaffed, negatively affecting field service operations, which in turn will negatively affect the safety
and health of the Public.

Subject:2016 Community Services Block Grant (CSBG) revenue contract, amendment #3
January 10, 2017 BOS Official Minutes 161
BACKGROUND:
The Board approved receipt of the 2016 Community Services Block Grant on December 15, 2015 (C.33). As the
County's Community Action Agency, the Department's Community Services Bureau regularly receives Community
Services Block Grant (CSBG) funding to operate self-sufficiency programs under the advisement of the County's
Economic Opportunity Council (EOC). The funding amount is based on the County’s low-income population which
meets federal poverty guidelines. The award approved on December 15, 2015 was a partial allocation based on the
partial grant received by the State from the federal government for CSBG through the federal department of Health
and Human Services. On March 29, 2016, the Board approved receipt of additional funding (C.50). On July 12, 2016
(C.54) the Board approved receipt of rest of the 2016 allocation from the State. This board order is to accept a
contract amendment to extend the term of the contract from January 1, 2016 through December 31, 2016 to new term
January 1, 2016 through February 28, 2017.
CONSEQUENCE OF NEGATIVE ACTION:
If not approved, the Department will be hampered in its ability to meet the needs of the community and to establish
partnerships with community based agencies and public organizations.
CHILDREN'S IMPACT STATEMENT:
The Employment & Human Services Department Community Services Bureau supports three of Contra Costa
County’s community outcomes - Outcome 1: “Children Ready for and Succeeding in School,” Outcome 3: “Families
that are Economically Self-sufficient,” and, Outcome 4: “Families that are Safe, Stable, and Nurturing.” These
outcomes are achieved by offering comprehensive services, including high quality early childhood education,
nutrition, and health services to low-income children throughout Contra Costa County.

RECOMMENDATION(S):
APPROVE and AUTHORIZE the Agricultural Commissioner, or designee, to execute a contract with the California
Department of Food and Agriculture to pay the County an amount not to exceed $100 to enforce California seed
marketing and labeling requirements for the period July 1, 2016 - June 30, 2017
FISCAL IMPACT:
This MOU will pay the department $100 for services. There is no cost share requirement and the revenue has been
anticipated in the departmental FY 16/17 budget. No County match.
BACKGROUND:
The goal of seed law enforcement (Section 52288, California Food and Agriculture code) is to protect seed
consumers, including vegetable and field crop growers, as well as urban landscapers. Poor quality seeds can cost
farmers and home gardeners alike considerable amounts of time, money and resources, by way of reduced yields,
poor crop quality, contamination by weeds or other unwanted species. By enforcing the California Seed Law
regarding marketing and labeling, the Department is able to ensure that consumers receive the desired product, and
that there is supportive legal action for those who are wronged.

target area, etc.);
How to identify the strategies, programs and/or services to be undertaken to address those needs;
The development of the grant project;
January 10, 2017 BOS Official Minutes 172
Ongoing implementation of the grant project.
The Proposition 47 Local Advisory Committee must include a broad range of stakeholders from within the
communities, organizations, departments, etc. impacted by the proposal. Examples include: behavioral
health professionals, educators, community-based and faith-based organizations, individuals impacted by
the justice system, law enforcement, probation, prosecutors, defense attorneys, courts, social service

The Proposition 47 grant encourages community engagement, innovation and financial leveraging as avenues for
communities to develop projects that best fit their needs. In supporting this approach, proposed projects may have
unforeseen or unintended impacts on local government agencies that prevent projects from operating as intended
(e.g., a significant increase in referrals to county behavioral health, lack of coordination between local agencies
that provide similar services, duplication of services, etc.). As a part of the application, each Lead Agency will be
required to acknowledge any anticipated impacts.
E. Board Resolution (Due prior to grant award, not with application )
III.Design Elements
A. Legislative Purpose
The purpose of Proposition 47 (Safe Neighborhoods and Schools Act) is “to ensure that prison spending is
focused on violent and serious offenses, to maximize alternatives for nonserious, nonviolent crime, and to
invest the savings generated from this act into prevention and support programs in K–12 schools, victim
services, and mental health and drug treatment.
The BSCC’s responsibilities are to administer a grant program to public agencies aimed at supporting
mental health treatment, substance abuse treatment, and diversion programs for people in the criminal
justice system, with an emphasis on programs that reduce recidivism of people convicted of less serious
crimes, such as those covered by this measure, and those who have substance abuse and mental health
problems.
Assembly Bill 1056 added additional priorities to the grant program including housing-related assistance
and community-based supportive services such as job skills training, case management and civil legal
services.
B. Guiding Principles
Value community partnerships and collaborations.
Encourage culturally competent services and approaches that foster the principles of restorative justice.

and why it is most appropriate for the community and target population.
B. Key questions to consider include:
What are the needs of your community and how does your project provide services reflective of the racially
and ethnically diverse communities served?
How does your project ensure services will be provided in locations accessible to the community?
How does your project ensure services will be tailored to meet an individual’s holistic needs, e.g.
wraparound services?
How does your project provide services in a culturally competent manner?
How does your approach ensure that services and programs adhere to the principles of trauma-informed
care?
How does your project provide services in a collaborative manner with the community, governmental and
nongovernmental agencies?
How does your project take steps to advance the principles of Restorative Justice and reduce recidivism in
your community?
How will this project change or improve the lives of participants?
V.Data Collection and Evaluation
A. Evaluation Reporting
Projects selected for funding will be required to submit a Local Evaluation Plan (at the conclusion of the
first quarter) a Two-Year Preliminary Evaluation Report (at the conclusion of year two), and a Final Local
Evaluation Report (after the conclusion of the grant) to the BSCC. See Attachment C for key definitions
related to project evaluation.
Public agency applicants are strongly encouraged to identify research partners early on and include them in
the development of the proposal, so that the goals and objectives listed in the Proposition 47 Project Work
Plan are measurable.
B. Required Set-Aside for Evaluation Efforts
Grantees are required to set aside at least 5 percent (or $25,000, whichever is greater) but not more than 10
percent of the total grant award for data collection and evaluation efforts, to include the development of the
Local Evaluation Plan, Two-Year Preliminary Evaluation Report, and Final Local Evaluation Report.
Public agency applicants are strongly encouraged to use outside evaluators to ensure objective and impartial
evaluations. Specifically, public agency applicants are encouraged to partner with state universities or
community colleges for evaluations.January 10, 2017 BOS Official Minutes 175
community colleges for evaluations.
C. Evaluation Elements
Local Evaluation Plan:
The purpose of the Local Evaluation Plan is to ensure that projects funded by the BSCC can be
evaluated. Grantees will be expected to include a detailed description of how the public agency
applicant will assess the effectiveness of the proposed program in relationship to each of its goals and
objectives. A relationship between the goals and objectives identified in the Proposition 47 Project
Work Plan should be apparent in the Local Evaluation Plan.
The Local Evaluation Plan should describe the evaluation design or model that will be used to
evaluate the effectiveness of the project component(s), with the project goals and the project
objectives clearly stated. Public agency applicants should also address process and outcome
evaluations. Once submitted, any modifications to the Local Evaluation Plan must be approved in
advance by the BSCC.
Two-Year Preliminary Evaluation Report
The purpose of the Two-Year Preliminary Local Evaluation Report is to assess whether grantees are
making sufficient progress toward the goals and objectives described in the original proposal. Second,
it will allow the grantee to ensure that the methodology described in the Local Evaluation Plan is still
appropriate for measuring the intended impact. As noted in the “Funding” section, second and third
year funding is contingent on the grantee’s ability to demonstrate that annual implementation goals
and objectives have been met.
Final Local Evaluation Report
Following project completion, grantees are required to complete a Local Evaluation Report. The
Local Evaluation Report must be in a format prescribed by the BSCC. Within the Local Evaluation
Report, an Executive Summary must be included that adheres to the format prescribed by the BSCC
specifically for the Executive Summary.
The purpose of the Final Local Evaluation Report is to determine whether the overall project
(including each individual component) was effective in meeting the goals laid out in the Local
Evaluation Plan. To do this, the grantee must assess and document the effectiveness of the activities
that were implemented within each individual project component. These activities should have been
identified in the previously submitted Local Evaluation Plan.
Evaluation Dissemination
The BSCC will make public the Final Local Evaluation Report from each grantee. Reports may be
posted to the BSCC website and/or developed into a Summary Final Report to be shared with the
Administration, the Legislature, and the public.
Projects selected for funding will be encouraged to make public (e.g., post online, disseminate, share
at meetings) the Final Local Evaluation Report to the community and the grantee’s Governing Board
(e.g., Board of Supervisors, City Council, etc.).
If the grantee plans to publish the Final Local Evaluation Report, it must be submitted to the BSCC for
review prior to publication.
VI.Additional Technical Elements
A. Financial Leveraging
No match requirement, but applicants must demonstrate how they will leverage other federal, state, and local
funds or other social investments, such as the following (per Assembly Bill 1056):
The Drug Medi-Cal Treatment Program (22 Cal. Code Regs. 51341.1, 51490.1, and 51516.1).
The Mental Health Services Act, enacted by Proposition 63 at the November 2, 2004, general election, as
amended.January 10, 2017 BOS Official Minutes 176
amended.
Funds provided for in connection with the implementation of Chapter 15 of the Statutes of 2011.
The Community Corrections Performance Incentives Act (Stats. 2009, Ch. 608; Chapter 3 (commencing
with Section 1228) of Title 8 of Part 2).
The tax credits established pursuant to Sections 12209, 17053.57, and 23657 of the Revenue and Taxation
Code.
The federal Department of Housing and Urban Development funds, such as the Emergency Solutions Grant
program (42 U.S.C. Sec. 11371 et seq.).
The federal Department of Veterans Affairs Supportive Services for Veteran Families program (38 U.S.C.
Sec. 2044).
Social Innovation Funds established by the Corporation for National and Community Service pursuant to
Section 12653k of Title 42 of the United States Code.
The Edward Byrne Memorial Justice Assistance Grant Program (42 U.S.C. Sec. 3750 et seq.).
B. Supplanting
Supplanting is strictly prohibited for all BSCC grants. When leveraging outside funds, public agency
applicants must be careful not to supplant. Supplanting is the deliberate reduction in the amount of federal,
state, or local funds being appropriated to an existing program or activity because grant funds have been
awarded for the same purposes.
It is the responsibility of the Grantee to ensure that supplanting does not occur. The Grantee must keep clear
and detailed financial records to show that grant funds are used only for allowable costs and activities.
C. Promising, data-driven, and innovative approaches
Public agency applicants seeking funding through this grant process are required to use data and research to drive
decision-making in the development, implementation and evaluation of their overall projects.
The BSCC is committed to supporting a focus on better outcomes in the criminal justice system and for those
involved in it. For the purpose of this RFP, public agency applicants should focus on the following three basic
principles:
Is there evidence or data to suggest that the intervention or strategy is likely to work, i.e., produce a desired
benefit? For example, was the intervention or strategy you selected used by another jurisdiction with
documented positive results? Is there published research on the intervention you are choosing to implement
showing its effectiveness? Is the intervention or strategy being used by another jurisdiction with a similar
problem and similar target population?
Once an intervention or strategy is selected, will you be able to demonstrate that it is being carried out as
intended? For example, does this intervention or strategy provide for a way to monitor quality control or
continuous quality improvement? If this intervention or strategy was implemented in another jurisdiction,
are there procedures in place to ensure that that you are following the model closely (so that you are more
likely to achieve the desired outcomes)?
Is there a plan to collect evidence or data that will allow for an evaluation of whether the intervention or
strategy worked? For example, will the intervention or strategy you selected allow for the collection of data
or other evidence so that outcomes can be measured at the conclusion of the project? Do you have processes
in place to identify, collect and analyze that data/evidence?
Public agency applicants are encouraged to develop an overall project that incorporates these principles, but is
tailored to fit the needs of the communities they serve. Innovation and creativity are encouraged, but projects that
have not been validated must demonstrate a promising approach using existing data and research such as best
practices in the field.
Plans to measure the effectiveness of a project should include the use of both qualitative and quantitative research.
While quantitative research is based on numbers and mathematical calculations, qualitative research is based on
written or spoken narratives. The purpose of quantitative research is to explain, predict and/or control events
through focused collection of numerical data, while the purpose of qualitative research is to explain and gain
insight and understanding of events through intensive collection of narrative data.
January 10, 2017 BOS Official Minutes 177
VII.General Grant Requirements
A. Grant Agreement
Public agency applicants approved for funding by the BSCC Board are required to enter into a Grant Agreement
with the BSCC. Grantees must agree to comply with all terms and conditions of the Grant Agreement. See
Attachment G for the State of California: Contract and General Terms and Conditions.
The Grant Agreement start date is. Contracts are considered fully executed only after they are signed by both the
Grantee and the BSCC. Work, services and encumbrances cannot begin prior to the Grant Agreement start date.
Work, services and encumbrances that occur after the start date but prior to contract execution may not be
reimbursed. Grantees are responsible for maintaining their Grant Agreement, all invoices, records and relevant
documentation for at least three years after the final payment under the contract.
B. Governing Board Resolution
Successful public agency applicants will be required to submit a Resolution from their Governing Boards before
the grant award can be finalized and funds awarded. A signed resolution is not required at the time of proposal
submission, but public agency applicants are advised that no financial invoices will be processed for
reimbursement until the Governing Board Resolution has been received by the BSCC. A sample Governing
Board Resolution can be found in Attachment H.
C. Quarterly Progress Reports
Grant award recipients are required to provide relevant program information and data by submitting quarterly
progress reports to the BSCC. Applicable forms and instructions will be available to grantees on the BSCC’s
website. Progress reports are a critical element in BSCC’s monitoring and oversight process. Grantees that are
unable to demonstrate that they are making sufficient progress toward project goals and objectives and that funds
are being spent down in accordance with the Grant Award Agreement and Proposition 47 Project Work Plan could
be subject to the withholding of funds.
D. Grantee Orientation Process
Following the start of the grant period, BSCC staff will conduct a Grantee Orientation in Sacramento (at a date to
be determined). The purpose of this mandatory session is to review the program requirements, invoicing and
budget modification processes, data collection and reporting requirements, as well as other grant management and
monitoring activities. Typically, the Project Director, Financial Officer, Day-to-Day Contact, individual tasked
with Data Collection and Evaluation and a minimum of one Community Partner must attend. Grant recipients
may use their Proposition 47 grant funds for travel-related expenditures such as airfare, mileage, meals, lodging
and other per diem costs. Public agency applicants should include anticipated costs in the budget section of the
proposal under the “Other” category.
E. Disqualification
The following will result in an automatic disqualification:
The original hard copy and electronic version of the Proposal are not received by 5:00 p.m. on February 21,
2017.
The Lead Agency Applicant is not a public agency as defined in Penal Code Section 6046.1 (d).
The proposal does not address mental health services, substance use disorder treatment, diversion or some
combination thereof, as required by Proposition 47.
January 10, 2017 BOS Official Minutes 178
Services (with the exception of outreach and reentry planning) will be provided in a custodial setting.
Under the direction of the Office of Reentry and Justice in the County Administrator's Office, staff is planning to submit this
grant with the Health Services Department as lead agency; Health Services houses hospitals, behavioral health, housing, and
detention mental health services. The CAO has developed a contract with Further The Work in the amount of $21,000 to
manage the proposal development process and write the application, which is due 2/21/17.
CONSEQUENCE OF NEGATIVE ACTION:
If the County does not apply for the Prop. 47 Grant funds,it will not be eligible to receive any Prop. 47 grant funds
for the 38 month period.

BACKGROUND:
The County Board of Supervisors approved the 2016/2017 North Richmond Mitigation Fee (NRMF) Expenditure
Plan on June 21, 2016, which was subsequently approved by the Richmond City Council in early July 2016. The
Expenditure Plan allocates a total of $120,000 within Strategy 9 for the administration and disbursement of
funding to five (5) designated non-profit entities to complete proposed Community-Based Projects which were
selected based on a funding request solicitation process that was conducted in early 2016.
The approved 2016/2017 NRMF Expenditure Plan allocates up to $93,600 of the $120,000 for disbursement to
the five (5) non-profit entities, up to $3,000 for County's contract administration, and up to $23,400 for CHDC to
assist the County with administering and disbursing allocated funding to selected non-profit entities. This contract
authorizes payment to CHDC in an amount not to exceed $117,000, which includes up to $23,400 for
reimbursement of costs incurred by CHDC to help administer funding plus up to $93,600 for disbursement to the
five (5) non-profit organizations awarded funding within Strategy 9.
CONSEQUENCE OF NEGATIVE ACTION:
The NRMF funding allocations approved by the County and City of Richmond could not be used as intended to
pay the five (5) designated non-profit organizations or CHDC for the implementation of the selected Community
Based Projects that would help address illegal dumping and blight in the North Richmond community.

with the completion and submission of applications.
This collaboration has been successful and has increased enrollment numbers in the CalFresh program.
CONSEQUENCE OF NEGATIVE ACTION:
Without authorization to continue the CalFresh Outreach efforts, the County will be at risk of not reaching all
potentially eligible households and consequently not increase program participation. The Food Bank of Contra Costa
and Solano (FBCCS) has direct access to and contact with multiple agencies in our county with a shared goal of
promoting nutrition and healthy eating. Their unique position of being a central contact and focal point makes them
the presumptive partner for the County.
Through FBCCS, the County wants to be able to use the already established network of partners to help increase
awareness and participation in the CalFresh program. In addition, other community based organizations, currently in
partnership with FBCCS, will be able access information, training and awareness about the CalFresh program and its
benefit to their clients as well as to the community.
CHILDREN'S IMPACT STATEMENT:
The services provided under this contract supports four of the five of Contra Costa County’s community outcomes:
(1) "Children Ready for and Succeeding in School"; (2) "Children and Youth Healthy and Preparing for Productive
Adulthood"; (4) "Families that are Safe, Stable and Nurturing"; and (5)"Communities that are Safe and Provide a
High Quality of Life for Children and Families” by providing outreach and application assistance to families for
increased access to the CalFresh program in Contra Costa County.

was placed on the ballot (Measure X), which required the inclusion of a lengthy document. The addition of this
measure resulted in an unanticipated additional publication expense of $710,000. It is necessary to increase the
payment limit of the contract in consideration of the increased services already provided in 2016 and for services that
will be provided through the 2018 elections.

Actions (WW0892)
January 10, 2017 BOS Official Minutes 254
BACKGROUND:
The purpose of this project is to demolish buildings F & G at the Marsh Creek Detention Facility, 12000 Marsh
Creek Road, Clayton. Due to the presence of hazardous materials, the air quality within the buildings has become
a safety concern. Maintenance requires the use of approved air respirators and air quality management. These
buildings are unoccupied and have been rendered unusable by the Sheriff's Department due to the existence of
black mold and hazardous materials, which may include asbestos-containing materials (ACMs) and lead-based
paints (LBPs). The Sheriff's Department is in agreement that the buildings should be removed. If ACMs and LBPs
are detected during pre-demolition analysis, then special handling prior to and during planned demolition activities
will be implemented in accordance with applicable laws. Demolition of these buildings would also reduce the
amount of deferred maintenance needs at this location.
On November 10, 2015, the Board of Supervisors awarded a job order contract (JOC) for repair, remodeling, and
other repetitive work to be performed pursuant to the Construction Task Catalog to each of Sea Pac Engineering,
Inc., John F. Otto, Inc., and Mark Scott Construction, each in the amount of $2,000,000. On September 20, 2016,
the Board approved a change order to increase the contract amount to $4,500,000, as allowed by Public Contract
Code, for both John F. Otto, Inc., and Mark Scott Construction. This project is expected to be performed by one
of the three JOC contractors. A task order catalogue has been prepared for the JOC Contractor to perform the
Project. In the event that it is not performed by a JOC contractor, the Public Works Department will go to the
Board for approval of plans and specifications and authorization to advertise and solicit bids.
CONSEQUENCE OF NEGATIVE ACTION:
If the project is not approved, these buildings will remain unusable and unoccupied while still incurring deferred
maintenance.

RECOMMENDATION(S):
CONTINUE the emergency action originally taken by the Board of Supervisors on November 16, 1999 regarding the
issue of homelessness in Contra Costa County.
FISCAL IMPACT:
None.
BACKGROUND:
On November 16, 1999, the Board of Supervisors declared a local emergency, pursuant to the provisions of
Government Code Section 8630 on homelessness in Contra Costa County.
Government Code Section 8630 requires that, for a body that meets weekly, the need to continue the emergency
declaration be reviewed at least every 14 days until the local emergency is terminated. In no event is the review to
take place more than 21 days after the previous review. On December 20, 2016 the Board of Supervisors reviewed
and approved the emergency declaration.
With the continuing high number of homeless individuals and insufficient funding available to assist in sheltering all
homeless individuals and families, it is appropriate for the Board to continue the declaration of a local emergency
regarding homelessness.

RECOMMENDATION(S):
ADOPT Resolution No. 2017/5 granting a pipeline franchise to California Resources Corporation pursuant to the
terms and conditions of County Ordinance No. 2013-19 and County Resolution No. 2013/305, for pipelines located
in the unincorporated areas of Antioch, Bay Point, Brentwood and Byron, as recommended by the Public Works
Director.
FISCAL IMPACT:
The pipeline franchise will generate approximately $78,500 per year in revenue to the General Fund, commencing
with calendar year 2016. The annual franchise payment will be calculated at the rate of $1.77 per cubic foot of
pipeline within the County right-of-way. The number of cubic feet of pipeline subject to the franchise fee rate will be
calculated by taking the area of the inside diameter of the pipeline plus 1” and multiplying it by the length of the
pipeline within the County right-of-way. The annual franchise fee rate of $1.77 per cubic foot will be increased
annually by the change in the Consumer Price Index, all Urban Consumers for the San Francisco-Oakland-San Jose
Area (1982-84 = 100), with December 2012 (239.53) as the base CPI month.

delivery in the Designated Public Hospital systems. PRIME’s purpose is to improve the health of Californians, by
advancing improvements in the quality, experience and value of care with an emphasis in primary care, cross-system
integration, and data analytics. PRIME funding is tied to firm performance goals to ensure continued transformation
of our health care delivery system so we can better serve the needs of our community.
PRIME identifies three domain areas: Outpatient Delivery System Transformation, Targeted High-Risk or High Cost
Population and Resource Utilization Efficiency. To meet the requirements of the program, CCRMC and Health
Centers has convened a series of teams within each domain. In October 2016, the department held the first learning
session for the nine Prime teams. The January 2017 session aims to build upon past session to build improvement
capability with a focus on the PRIME five-year performance based metrics.
CONSEQUENCE OF NEGATIVE ACTION:
If this action is not approved, the department will not have the appropriate approvals for expenditures related to a
County Sponsored special event pursuant to Administrative Bulletin No. 114 (County and Non-County Sponsored
Events and Activities).
January 10, 2017 BOS Official Minutes 280
RECOMMENDATION(S):
ADOPT Resolution No. 2017/8 authorizing the adoption of procedures and conditions for the delay of sale of
tax-defaulted properties and the cancelation of delinquent penalties, costs, fees, and interest on such properties, if the
properties would have been eligible for property tax postponement prior to January 1, 2017, as recommended by the
County Treasurer-Tax Collector.
FISCAL IMPACT:
There will be a positive impact on the General Fund. Property taxes that otherwise may not have been collected due
to income limitations on certain senior citizens and disabled citizens may now be collected. However, there may be a
small negative effect on the Tax Loss Reserve Fund, which is funded in part by the revenues from delinquent
penalties and interest, because such revenues associated with these properties will be canceled.
BACKGROUND:
Effective February 20, 2009, Senate Bill X3 8 (2009-2010 Third Extraordinary Session) suspended the Property Tax
Postponement Program, which allows eligible homeowners to postpone payment of part or all of current property
taxes owing on the eligible homeowner’s primary residence. This legislation eliminated all funding for the program
beginning in fiscal year 2009-10 and prohibited the State Controller’s Office from accepting claims for property tax
postponement.

Subject:Property Tax Postponement for Senior and Disabled Citizens
January 10, 2017 BOS Official Minutes 281
BACKGROUND: (CONT'D)
On September 28, 2014, Assembly Bill 2231 was enacted, reinstating the Property Tax Postponement Program.
Under the reinstated Property Tax Postponement Program, the State Controller’s Office began accepting
applications for the program in the fall of 2016. For the period during which the program was suspended, it also
authorized counties to adopt conditions and procedures for the delay of sale of tax-defaulted properties and to
cancel penalties, costs, fees and interest associated with any such properties, if the properties would have been
eligible for the Property Tax Postponement Program had it been in effect.
To apply for the Property Tax Postponement Program, homeowners must complete and submit an application to
the State Controller’s Office proving eligibility each year in which they wish to postpone their taxes (only current
year taxes are eligible for postponement). To be eligible for the program, the homeowner must:
• be at least 62 years of age, blind, or disabled;
• own and occupy the home as his or her principal place of residence (mobile and
manufactured homes, whether affixed or unaffixed, floating homes, and house boats are not eligible);
• have a total household income of $35,500 or less;
• have at least 40% equity in the property;
• not have a reverse mortgage on the property; and
• not have a PACE loan.
If the claimant is granted postponement under the Property Tax Postponement Program, the State Controller’s
Office will make a payment directly to the County Tax Collector for the current-year property taxes requested and
create an account receivable for each claimant. A lien will be recorded by the State Controller’s Office against the
qualified property to secure eventual repayment of those deferred taxes plus interest. The claimant may pay all or
part of the postponed taxes and interest at any time but they become due and payable when the claimant:
• dies;
• moves from or sells the property;
• transfers title;
• defaults on a senior lien;
• refinances the residential dwelling; or
• elects to participate in a reverse mortgage program.
When the Property Tax Postponement account is paid in full, the State Controller’s Office will prepare a Release
of Lien and forward it to the County Recorder for recordation.
Resolution 2017/8 puts in place conditions and procedures for the delay of sale of tax-defaulted properties that
would have been eligible for the Property Tax Postponement Program prior to January 1, 2017, as determined by
the Treasurer-Tax Collector and as set forth in the Contra Costa County Procedures and Conditions to Delay Tax
Sales under Revenue & Taxation Code Section 3691, and authorizes the Treasurer-Tax Collector to cancel
penalties, costs, fees and interest associated with any such properties.
CONSEQUENCE OF NEGATIVE ACTION:
If not approved, there will not be conditions and procedures in place to delay the sale of tax-defaulted properties
that would have been eligible for the Property Tax Postponement Program prior to January 1, 2017, and
delinquent penalties, costs, fees, and interest on properties cannot be canceled in accordance with California
Revenue and Taxation Code Section 3691.

Resolution No. 2017/8
In the matter of Property Tax Postponement for Senior and Disabled Citizens.
Whereas, Assembly Bill 2231 reinstated the Property Tax Postponement Program on September 28, 2014 and authorized the
California State Controller’s Office to begin accepting applications for the program in October 2016.
Whereas, the State Controller’s Office is the main administrator of the Property Tax Postponement Program, cooperation with
Contra Costa County Treasurer-Tax Collector, Assessor and Recorder is necessary in order to make the program successful and
sustainable.
Whereas, only current-year taxes are eligible for postponement. Per State law, the State Controller’s Office will not fund any
defaulted property taxes nor any delinquency fees, penalties, or interest that are owed on the property; these taxes are the
responsibility of the taxpayer.
Whereas, a county may elect, by an ordinance or resolution adopted by a majority vote of its entire governing body, to adopt
conditions and procedures for the delay of sale of properties as described in Revenue and Taxation Code Section 3691(a)(1)(A)
that it finds may be eligible to file a property tax postponement claim with the State Controller prior to January 1, 2017, and
authorize the Treasurer-Tax Collector to cancel any delinquent penalties, costs, fees, and interest associated with these properties.
Now, Therefore, Be it Resolved that the Board ADOPTS the procedures and conditions, set forth in the Contra Costa County
Procedures and Conditions to Delay Tax Sales under Revenue & Taxation Code Section 3691, to delay the sale of tax-defaulted
properties that would have been eligible for the Property Tax Postponement Program prior to January 1, 2017, as determined by
the Treasurer-Tax Collector, and AUTHORIZES the Treasurer- Tax Collector to cancel any delinquent penalties, costs, fees, and
interest accrued on such properties, in accordance with the California Revenue and Taxation Code, including Section 3691.
