SD. 5 CONSIDER accepting report from the Transportation, Water and Infrastructure Committee on East Bay Municipal Utility District
Water Supply Management Program 2040. (Supervisor Piepho)
Supervisor Piepho, Transportation Water and Infrastructure Committee Chair, presented this report to the Board regarding the request from
East Bay Municipal Utility District (EBMUD) requesting a letter of support for their Water Supply Management Program (WSMP) 2040. She
said County staff is being very cautious as the County was not involved or informed from the very beginning of EBMUD’S future water
supply planning.
Supervisor Gioia said in his 10 years sitting on EBMUD Board he had always found their reports very thorough, adding future water supply
planning is a very complicated process and requires partnerships. He said we should reserve the right to partner in or review the planning
process before supporting anything right now.
Supervisor Uilkema said she is not ready to define what is acceptable to this County. She made it clear she wants to support EBMUD but said
she feels we are not ready to specify which project is preferable.
Supervisor Piepho requested the proposed letter return to the Board for review August 11, 2009 before authorizing the Chair’s signature. She
proposed the letter support the WSMP 2040 effort , thank EBMUD for their future water supply planning efforts, and support their long-term
planning processes and objectives but withhold supporting any particular projects.
PUBLIC SPEAKERS:
Lesa MaIntosh, Director, East Bay Municipal Utility District (EBMUD);
Kary Foulkes, EBMUD Board Member;
Alez Coate, EBMUD Director of Water and Natural Resources.
The above conveyed to the Board how open EBMUD's portfolio is for review and the consideration of options regarding future decisions of
water use and storage.
Vote: 5 - 0
DELIBERATION ITEMS
D. 1 CONSIDER approval of an Out of Area Service Agreement for Water Service to the Clayton Regency Mobile Home Park, located
at 16711 Marsh Creek Road, with the Contra Costa Water District and Clayton Regency, LLC. (Jason Crapo and Patrick Roche,
Conservation and Development)
Jason Crapo, Director of Building Inspection, presented the staff report.

the other residents in the area:

Walter Merlind, resident of Clayton;
Kathy Hendrickson, resident of Clayton.

Troy Bristol, Save Mount Diablo.
Supervisor Glover responded that this item has been “hot” on the agenda as long as he’s been Supervisor. He said in today’s action, the Board
is dealing with the emergency declared by Public Health Director Wendell Brunner.
In Dr. Brunner’s absence, Dr. William Walker, Health Services Director, addressed the Board to note that the water being trucked in to the
Mobile Home Park is no longer acceptable, creating a public health safety emergency.
Supervisor Glover said he does not blame the homeowners who would appreciate city water availability, but said the Board’s efforts now are
dealing with the emergency of water being trucked in to the people.
Supervisor Piepho pointed out homeowners should discuss the matter with Contra Costa Water District, as they are the agency who can
provide water service to the residents requesting.
Vote: 5 - 0
D. 2 CONSIDER determining that Shapell Industries, Inc., Braddock and Logan Group II, L.P., and Ponderosa Homes, Inc., are in
compliance with the Camino Tassajara Affordable Housing Program and accepting report and recommendation from the Director of
Conservation and Development declining to modify or eliminate the Resale Restriction Agreement for theWillow at Alamo Creek,
Danville. (Jim Kennedy, Conservation and Development) (No General Fund impact)
Jim Kennedy of the Conservation & Development Department introduced the item and outlined the context for the recommendations. He
explained that what was at issue was the 20-year deed restriction on the 127-unit moderate income Willow Town Home development project
in the Danville/San Ramon area. Some of the property owners at development have asked the County to eliminate the deed restriction. Staff
is not recommending changes to or elimination of the deed restriction. Staff indicated that town home values are currently at or above
restricted levels.
There were four public speakers on the item:
Uzair Sattar, Danville, resident, spoke regarding how the deed restriction places the homeowners at a disadvantage in the selling market
and how refinancing has been difficult due to the bank’s requirement for 10% equity. He asked the Board to revoke or reduce the deed
restriction.
Wilson Sun, Danville, resident, spoke regarding promised project amenities that were not delivered, and the difficulty in selling the
home in the current market.
Jennifer Xie, Danville,resident, spoke about the fair market price of the townhouse at the time of purchase as compared to the current
fair market price.
Sekar Muthusamy, Danville resident, spoke about the 20-year deed restriction in comparison to other affordable housing developments
that had shorter (1-5 year) deed restrictions.
Staff explained that the length of the deed restriction on this project was a policy decision by the Board of Supervisors when it rendered its
approval of General Plan amendment. This decision was driven largely by the need for the County to achieve credit under state housing
element mandates. Staff noted that the deed restrictions on some affordable housing projects are as long as 45 years and that, in previous
projects, the deed restrictions may have been shorter because at the time there was less disparity between the fair market and moderate
income pricing. Market changes led to modified deed restriction policies.
Supervisor Bonilla noted that the policy exists in order to sustain the future viability of program and that the program includes relief
provisions if the homeowner is unable to sell the property with the restriction.
Staff noted that 71 of the 127 units have refinanced to date, and that homeowners have the option of renting their units as an alternative to
selling them.
Supervisor Uilkema supported the staff recommendation, noting that real estate programs are long-term investments and that the County
cannot guarantee the value of any home, including homes under the affordable housing program.
Supervisor Gioia recalled the massive debate when this project was originally approved by the Board. At the time, the Board held firm that
the project must include a strong affordable housing component. He cautioned the Board about the possible consequences if program
participants, particularly in this high cost area of the county, were excused from their original commitments.
Supervisor Gioia moved to approve the staff recommendation and the motion was seconded by Supervisor Glover.
5-0 vote: ADOPTED staff recommendations to make no changes to the deed restrictions; and REFERRED to the Finance Committee to
report back to the Board on ways that the County may better facilitate refinancing for future affordable housing projects.
Vote: 5 - 0

D. 6 ACCEPT an oral report from the Health Services Department on the H1N1 (Swine) Flu and the strategies and plans being

Kathy Ferris, Manager of Infection Prevention and Control;
Patricia Tanquary, Chief Executive Officer, Contra Costa Health Plan.
He indicated that stockpiles of relevant medications are in place and surveys completed by public and private providers indicate the anti-

including outreach of public information in both english and spanish, continued use of social media such as Twitter, Facebook, and the
County Health Services website (cchealth.org), which is updated weekly, as well as efforts to include pamphlet distribution via the school
districts.
Dr. Walker said the County has developed a medical reserve corp of volunteers ready to respond in an emergency and said that personal
protective equipment and special equipment such as inflatable tents for expanded capacity have and continue to be placed in strategic
locations. Additionally, he added, procedural and staffing partnerships have been developed among the public and private health providers
and many local pharmacies.
Dr. Walker said the Health Services Department continues to encourage all to observe illness prevention measures and invites the public to
visit www.cchealth.org for weekly updates on the flu viruses.

D. 7 CONSIDER reports of Board members.
Supervisor Piepho and Glover attended the NACO Conference in Tennessee. Supervisor Piepho said the conference was a green affair,
with no hard copy handouts available, all on line materials. She reported the Legislature is off and nothing to report of the Delta Bills,
noting when Legislature returns it will be fast and furious with the rubber hitting the road, so to speak. Supervisor Glover said in
comparing notes at the conference, saying California leading the pack as far as "bad" rating is concerned. He noted Barbara Boxer sent
his office an e-mail announcing Thursday Aug 6, there would be some Grant Writing Classes available.
