Covid-19 Update
Covid-19 Update
January 19 2021
Anna Roth, Director Health Services
November was the deadliest month for Covid-19 since the pandemic began. More than a third of the
deaths in Contra Costa County in 2020, occurred in December and three quarters of those deaths
occurred in the last half of the month. January could see as many or more deaths from Covid-19. There
are currently 268 Covid-19 patients hospitalized in the county, with a potential to exceed 300 next week.
The ICU capacity is around 3% at this time. This number has been fluctuating throughout the Bay Area.
Today it is reported at 7.4%.
The Covid-19 has mutated. The new strain known as 452r is confirmed to be in the Bay Area and other
parts of the state including the south and far north.
That's why with all of the efforts to get vaccine out to the most vulnerable, especially our long-term care
facility residents and elderly, there has been new news that there are virus mutations circulating in
California. This mutation in particular has been connected with several outbreaks. There is concern that
this variant is more contagious but that is not yet confirmed. Research is being undertaken.
The appearance of a new variant serves to highlight the immense importance of wearing masks and
social distancing until we have widespread availability and acceptance of a vaccine. The researchers are
still studying to see if there is impact this variance or other variance have on the effectiveness of the
vaccine.
Based on what is known about coronavirus and how the current Covid-19 vaccines work, experts say it
would take dozens of mutations over multiple years for the virus to evolve enough for the vaccine to lose
its effectiveness.
These viruses are very different from the flu which mutates more rapidly. That's why our flu vaccine has
to change every year. It's not expected that the vaccine would lose its effectiveness in such a short
period of time. We have full confidence in the vaccine at this time
It's more of a concern about whether the mutations affect the ability of the virus to spread.
There was another news item in the last 24 hours that there was a community vaccination clinic in
another part of the state where ten people experienced an immediate allergic reaction. All part of the
same lot as the moderna vaccine. The state is starting the investigation to figure out what may have
occurred. Nationwide, 1.3 million doses of the lot of Moderna vaccine distributed across the country.
There have been so far no other reports of other reactions to the Moderna vaccine and to this lot of
vaccine.
Contra Costa received 3700 doses of this lot. Contra Costa County Health Services has not administered
any of this batch; one of our community partners did received approximately 600 doses, of which 320
doses were administered before the recall was announced.
They did not observe any reactions, any allergic reactions or unexpected reactions to any of the 320
individuals who got the vaccines. They pulled their remaining doses from the supply.
Allergic reactions can happen after both the Pfizer and Moderna vaccines. Overall, data nationwide
shows that about 1 in 100,000 people might get an allergic reaction. They tend to happen in the first 10
to 15 minutes of someone getting the vaccine, so the standard protocol is to observe someone 15
minutes after they get the vaccine. If someone has a history of severe reactions, they are advised to wait
30 minutes. This lot was pulled because there were ten reactions, more that is expected.
Contra Costa County remains under the regional stay at home order. It will be lifted when the state
models project capacity is improving above 14% four weeks from now or when they do the projection.
January 12th, the Sacramento region had their stay at home order restrictions. The state runs the model
several times a week and will announce when the model has the bay area above 15%. We are running
between 3 and 7% ICU capacity in the bay area currently.
We know most experts say to get to community level immunity where we keep the virus under control by
vaccine alone, we have to vaccinate 70 to 80% of the population. One more reason we want to get
vaccine out and especially vaccine out to the most vulnerable individuals.
A lot of experts say that if we got to 10% of the population vaccinated and protected and if we focused on
the right 10%, those most vulnerable, those most at high risk of being hospitalized or dying from covid-19,
that could mean a big break for the hospitals declining admissions, declining deaths.
It could lead to more rapidly lifting the stay at home order and eventually moving down to the color-coded
state tiers to open businesses and outdoor restaurants and personal care services and other things. We
have to do our social distancing and mask wearing. We would be moving back toward opening up
society and businesses a lot quicker once we get to the 10% or so threshold. We are closing in at 4 to
5% of the population already.
Tonight, the beacon will be lit in honor of all of the people that lost their lives to Covid-19. That will be
5:30 p.m. today staying lit until 7:30 p.m. tomorrow, in coordination with the Washington Monument also
lit up in memory of the Covid victims.
RECOMMENDATION(S):
OPEN the public hearing and ask if any notified property owners wish to be heard as to the four items
specified in Section B below, CLOSE Public Hearing.
Upon completion and closing of the hearing, MAKE the findings and determinations listed under Section B
below and ADOPT the attached Resolution of Necessity (No. 2021/26) to acquire the required property by
eminent domain. Project No.: 0662-6R4147
FISCAL IMPACT:
In eminent domain actions the judgment will be the price paid for the property, and may include court costs
which are regarded as a roughly calculable expense of property acquisition. Costs of acquisition in this case
are 100% reimbursable from the following: 26% Highway Safety Improvement Program Funds, 3% Local
Road Funds, 18% East County Area of Benefit Funds, 7% Discovery Bay Area of Benefit Funds and 46%
Discovery Bay West Funds. (DCD - CP No. 18-04)

Subject:Resolution of Necessity Hearing for the Byron Highway/Byer Road Safety Improvements Project, Byron area.
BACKGROUND:
Proposed Project
This relates to right of way acquisition for Contra Costa County’s (“County”) Byron Highway/Byer
Road Safety Improvements Project (“Project”), in the Byron area of east Contra Costa County.
Excelsior Middle School is located near the intersection of Byron Highway and Byer Road. Before
traffic circulation changes on the middle school campus, traffic traveling south on Byron Highway
would use a button-hook turning lane to turn left into the middle school parking lot. Due to circulation
changes on the middle school campus, vehicles entering the middle school must turn left to Byer Road to
access the parking lot, and then can exit onto Byron Highway. However, there is no left turn pocket
dedicated to vehicles turning left onto Byer Road from Byron Highway.
The Project will widen Byron Highway between Hoffman Lane and a point 540 feet south of Byer Road,
to provide a southbound left-turn pocket at the intersection with Byer Road, and 1,000 feet of a
two-way-left-turn-lane between the left turn pocket and the Byron Highway/Hoffman Lane intersection.
The Project also includes construction of a raised pedestrian refuge island within the crosswalk across
Byron Highway at Byer Road, adding a third rectangular rapid flashing beacon at the crosswalk area
that notifies vehicles of pedestrians using the crosswalk, and installing vehicle-speed feedback signs at
both ends of the Project limits to notify drivers of their vehicles’ speed. The purpose of the Project is to
provide safety improvements by installing traffic calming measures such as the speed feedback sign,
improving vehicle circulation of vehicles traveling on this segment of Byron Highway, addressing traffic
safety concerns of vehicles turning left from Byron highway onto Byer Road (including a history of
accidents), and improving pedestrian safety.
On December 4, 2018, the Board of Supervisors approved the Project and determined the Project was
exempt from the California Environmental Quality Act (CEQA), under the Class 1(c) Categorical
Exemption, pursuant to Article 19, Section 15301 of the CEQA Guidelines. The CEQA notice of
exemption was filed on December 6, 2018.
In order to proceed with the project, it is necessary for the County to exercise its power of eminent
domain. Pursuant to Section 1245.235 of the Code of Civil Procedure, notice was given to all persons
listed on the attached Exhibit “A” whose names and addresses appear on the last equalized County
Assessment Roll. This notice consisted of sending by first-class and certified mail on December 15,
2020 a Notice of Intention which notified these owners that a hearing is scheduled for January 19, 2021,
at 9:30 a.m. in the Board's Chambers at 1025 Escobar Street, Martinez, California, Those notices
indicated that, at the above time and place, the owners may appear to be heard on the matters referred to
in the notice. A cover letter was mailed with the notices to advise the owners how they could arrange to
appear and participate at the hearing via Zoom.
B. Scope of Hearing Per C.C.P. Section 1245.235
1. Public interest and necessity require the Project.
Byron Highway is a two-lane, heavily used, truck and commuter route that provides a vital
transportation link between Contra Costa and Alameda Counties, as well as San Joaquin County.
Excelsior Middle School fronts the east side of Byron Highway between Hoffman Lane and Byer Road.
This segment of roadway has a history of accidents. Because of vehicle circulation changes on the
school’s campus, ingress access to the school now is exclusively from Byer Road. The project includes
school’s campus, ingress access to the school now is exclusively from Byer Road. The project includes
road improvements to accommodate installation of a southbound left turn pocket at the Byer Road
intersection, a two-way-left-turn-lane and speed feedback signs at both ends of the project. The project
will also modify and improve the existing rectangular rapid flashing beacons at that crosswalk by
installing a third rectangular rapid flashing beacon within a new pedestrian refuge island to improve
traffic and pedestrian safety at this intersection.
2. The project is planned and located in the manner that will be most compatible with the
greatest public good and the least private injury .
The design plan for this project is to provide a left turn pocket and a two-way-left-turn-lane between
Hoffman Lane and Byer Road. The proposed improvements meet the current design standards. The
project does not increase the number of through travel lanes and will therefore not increase the capacity
of the roadway. The majority of the widening will occur along the west side of Byron Highway. During
the preliminary planning phase, staff determined that widening for the Project could occur on the east
side of Byron Highway or on the west side of Byron Highway. However, an alignment requiring
widening primarily on the east side of Byron Highway would have required the relocation of PG&E
utility poles and the acquisition of additional land rights for PG&E vegetation management purposes.
Otherwise, the extent of right of way acquisition would be substantially similar when compared to
widening on the west side of Byron highway. By widening on the west side of Byron Highway, the
utility poles on the east side of the highway can remain in place and acquiring additional land rights to
meet PG&E clearance requirements can be avoided.
3. The properties sought to be acquired is/are necessary for the project,
The property interests sought for this Project are necessary for the widening of Byron Highway to install
the left turn pocket, two-way-left-turn-lane, and necessary tapers to conform back to the existing
pavement width, as planned. All efforts have been made to reduce physical and operational impacts to
adjacent properties both during and after construction. The Project cannot be constructed as planned
without the acquisition of these property interests.
4. The offer of compensation required by Section 7267.2 of the Government Code has
been made to the owner or owners of record .
The County, through the Real Estate Division of the Public Works Department, has made an offer of just
compensation to the owner of record for the rights required for this project. The offers were based on an
appraisal of the fair market value of the property rights being acquired. In this case, efforts were made to
acquire each required property or property right through negotiated purchase and sale instead of
condemnation. Attempts to negotiate a settlement involved discussions, and in some cases site visits with
the owners of record and/or their representative. However, the negotiations were not successful,
requiring the County to proceed with the adoption of this Resolution of Necessity.
CONSEQUENCE OF NEGATIVE ACTION:
The County will be unable to acquire the property rights necessary for the project.

The Project is a public improvement of county highway that consists of road improvements to accommodate a southbound left
turn pocket at the intersection of Byron Highway and Byer Road and 1000 feet of two-way-left-turn lane between the end of the
left turn pocket and the Hoffman Lane intersection. The Project includes construction of a raised pedestrian refuge island within
the crosswalk across Byron Highway at Byer Road, adding a third rectangular rapid flashing beacon to the crosswalk area,
installing speed feedback signs at both ends of the Project limits, and related activities. In connection with the Project, the
County must acquire certain property and property interests described herein.
The property to be acquired consists of three (3) parcels that are generally located along Byron Highway in the Byron area of east
Contra Costa County. The properties are more particularly described in Appendix "A", attached hereto and incorporated herein by
this reference.
On December 15, 2020, notice of the County's intention to adopt a resolution of necessity for acquisition by eminent domain of
the real property described in Appendix "A" was sent to persons whose names appear on the last equalized County Assessment
Roll as owners of said property. The persons who received said notice are listed in Exhibit "A". The notice specified January 19,
2021 , at 9:30 a.m., in the Board of Supervisors Chambers in the Administration Building, 1025 Escobar Street, Martinez,
California 94553, as the date, time, and place for the hearing thereon.

Based upon the evidence presented to it, this Board finds, determines, and hereby declares the following:
1. The public interest and necessity require the proposed Project; and
2. The proposed Project is planned or located in the manner that will be most compatible with the greatest public good and the
least private injury; and
3. The property described herein is necessary for the proposed Project; and
4. The offer required by Section 7267.2 of the Government Code was made to the owner or owners of record.
5. Insofar as any of the property described in this resolution has heretofore been dedicated to a public use, the acquisition and use
of such property by Contra Costa County for the purposes identified herein is for a more necessary public use than the use to
which the property has already been appropriated, or is for a compatible public use. This determination and finding is made and
this resolution is adopted pursuant to Code of Civil Procedure Sections 1240.510 and 1240.610.
6. On December 4, 2018, this Board APPROVED the proposed Project and ADOPTED the California Environmental Quality
Act (CEQA), Class 1(c) Categorical Exemption, pursuant to Article 19, Section 15301 of the CEQA Guidelines pertaining to this

To acquire in the County's name, by condemnation, the titles, easements and rights of way hereinafter described in and to said
real property or interest(s) therein, in accordance with the provisions for eminent domain in the Code of Civil Procedure and the
Constitution of the State of California, all as more particularly described in Appendix "A":
Parcels 4 and 6 described in Appendix “A” are to be acquired in fee title;

RECOMMENDATION(S):
ADOPT Resolution No. 2021/36 to authorize an annual vehicle license fee increase of $1 for all motor
vehicles registered in Contra Costa County and an additional $2 for commercial vehicles to provide
additional funding for the County’s CAL-ID program.
FISCAL IMPACT:
There will be a $30,000 integration fee paid to the Department of Motor Vehicles (DMV). Initial revenue:
$1,100,000 generated by the fee increase to vehicle registration beginning August 1, 2021.
BACKGROUND:
In 1985, the legislature enacted California Penal Code section 11112.1. This law directed the California
Department of Justice to develop a Statewide California Identification System, known as CAL-ID. The
CAL-ID system provides funding for the Automated Fingerprint Identification System (AFIS), which
facilitates the statewide telecommunications network dedicated to the transmission of fingerprint data
throughout the state for the use of identification by law enforcement agencies.

BACKGROUND: (CONT'D)
network is essential to public safety because it provides local law enforcement agencies the ability to
automate mobile and fixed location fingerprint identification of individuals who may be involved in
driving under the influence of drugs or alcohol, vehicular manslaughter, or any combination of those,
and any other vehicle-related crime. All law enforcement agencies in Contra Costa County are required
to utilize the AFIS telecommunications network.
On August 25, 2014, the Governor approved Assembly Bill No. 2393, which amended California
Vehicle Code Section 9250.19. Prior to the amendment, existing law authorized counties, upon the
adoption of a resolution by its Board of Supervisors, to impose a fee of $1 on all motor vehicles. This fee
is in addition to other fees imposed by the DMV for the registration of a vehicle. Additionally, existing
law required registered owners of commercial vehicles to pay an additional $2 fee.
California Vehicle Code section 9250.19 authorizes any county that previously adopted the existing
resolution, to now increase that fee to $2 for all motor vehicles in the same manner that it imposed the
initial fee. This bill requires counties to submit a resolution authorizing increased fees pursuant to these
provisions to the DMV at least six months prior to the fee's operative date.
After deducting administrative costs, existing law requires the DMV to pay those fees to the Controller
quarterly. Existing law provides for the continuous appropriation of the money generated by these fees
to the Controller for disbursement to each County that has adopted a resolution as described above, and
limits the expenditure of the money so disbursed to designated purposes related to law enforcement such
as CAL-ID.
The CAL-ID local governing body, known as the Remote Access Network (RAN) Board of Directors,
unanimously voted to recommend the Board of Supervisors authorize the additional license fees.
CONSEQUENCE OF NEGATIVE ACTION:
A decision not to approve this increase will lead to the County’s CAL-ID program to operate at a
$1,100,000 deficit each year moving forward.

BE IT FURTHER RESOLVED that the two dollars ($2) shall be paid at the time of registration or renewal of a vehicle, and
quarterly to the Controller pursuant to section 9250.19(a)(1).

Subject:Proposed 2021-22 State and Federal Legislative Platforms and 2020 Year-end Legislative Advocacy Reports
RECOMMENDATION(S): (CONT'D)
FISCAL IMPACT:
No direct impact to the County from the acceptance of the Year-end Reports and the adoption of the
Legislative Platforms.
BACKGROUND:
2020 Year-end Reports:
In January of each year, Year-end Reports that summarize the County's legislative advocacy activities
for the prior calendar year are submitted to the Board of Supervisors for their review and acceptance.
The state 2020 Year-end Report was prepared by the County's state advocates, Mr. James Gross and Ms.
Michelle Rubalcava of Nielsen Merksamer Parrinello Gross & Leoni LLP. (Attachment C) The federal
2020 Year-end Report was prepared by the County's federal advocates, Mr. Paul Schlesinger, Mr. Perrin
Badini, and Ms. Mackenzie Dobson of Alcalde & Fay. (Attachment D) Despite the unprecedented
challenges presented by the COVID-19 pandemic, the County's state advocacy program was successful
in advancing its two sponsored bills to the Governor's desk, AB 2387 (Grayson), telephonic
reassessments for In Home Supportive Services recipients, and SB 1349 (Glazer), authorization to
enable a countywide sales tax vote. Ultimately, AB 2387 was vetoed by the Governor; however, SB
1349 was signed by Governor Newsom, and Measure X was placed on the November 3, 2020 ballot for
Contra Costa County voters to decide. In 2020, Federal advocacy efforts continued for our
federally-supported infrastructure needs, while pandemic relief and response support assumed a
preeminent focus of advocacy efforts.
2021-22 State and Federal Legislative Platforms:
At the beginning of each two-year legislative cycle, the Board of Supervisors is expected to adopt a
State Legislative Platform that establishes Contra Costa County's priorities and policy positions with
regard to potential state legislation and regulation. The State Legislative Platform includes
County-sponsored bill proposals, legislative or regulatory advocacy priorities, and principles that provide
direction and guidance for identification of and advocacy on bills, regulations and ballot measures which
could affect the services, programs or finances of Contra Costa County. At the same time, the Board of
Supervisors also adopts a Federal Legislative Platform that establishes federal funding needs and policy
positions with regard to potential federal legislation and regulation. These Platform documents are
utilized by the County's state and federal advocates, elected officials, and staff as the basis for the
County's advocacy efforts.
The State and Federal Legislative Platforms are prepared by staff of the County Administrator's Office
in collaboration and consultation with County department heads and other key staff, the County's state
and federal advocates, and with input from the Board's commissions/committees and the public. For the
2021-22 Platforms, CAO staff conducted outreach in the fall of 2020, inviting input so that draft
documents could be reviewed and considered by the Legislation Committee at their December 3, 2020
meeting. Elements of the Platforms related to the subject matter of the Transportation, Water and
Infrastructure Committee (TWIC) were also reviewed by that committee prior to the Proposed Platforms
being presented to the Board of Supervisors for adoption.
Subsequent to the Dec. 3, 2020 meeting of the Legislation Committee and their consideration of the
Draft 2021-22 Platform, CAO staff received a request from the Employment and Human Services
Department director, Kathy Gallagher, to add an additional state Platform principle: "SUPPORT funding
and initiatives to support children's mental health and studies on the long-term impacts of COVID-19 on
the physical and mental health of adults and children." This principle has been added to the Proposed
State Platform, page 20.
In addition, staff received language from Contra Costa Health Services regarding a sponsored bill by
Assemblymember Rebecca Bauer-Kahan on which they wish to collaborate: Legislation to establish a
pilot program for an alternative behavioral health crisis line for individuals to report issues related to
mental health or a substance use disorder, and for individuals experiencing homelessness. This has been
added to the Proposed Platform as "Sponsored Bill #2," replacing a proposal in the Draft Platform
related to alternative management standards for treated wood waste.
Notable changes from the Adopted 2020 State Platform include the following:
1. Changed cover photos (added official photos of new County administration building throughout

INTRODUCTION
County Profile
One of the original 27 counties
established in California in 1850, Contra
Costa County is home to more than one
million people, making it the ninth most
populous county in the state. Physically,
Contra Costa is over 733 square miles and
extends from the northeastern shore of the
San Francisco Bay easterly about 50 miles to
San Joaquin County. The County is bordered
on the south and west by Alameda County
and on the north by the Suisun and San Pablo Bays. The western and northern shorelines are industrialized,
while the interior sections are suburban/residential, commercial and light industrial.
About 40 percent of the county is under the jurisdiction of 19 incorporated cities and towns, and
large portions of the remaining unincorporated area are part of public park systems and a habitat
conservancy. Contra Costa County is very
diverse, with communities that range from small
agricultural places like Byron, with a density of
about 200 people per square mile, to urban
population centers like Contra Costa Centre, a
bustling transit village with a density of 8,400
people per square mile.
With its strategic location as The Capital
of The Northern California Mega-RegionTM and
easy access to suppliers and customers, Contra
Costa is a business destination full of opportunity.
Demographic Highlights
Approximately 1.1 million people live in Contra Costa County; only 15%, or about 172,513
people, reside in the unincorporated areas of the county. The median age of County residents is 39 years
old. Our population of seniors age 60 or older is expected to grow by approximately 47% between
2020 and 2050, making this age group our fastest growing.
4
The majority (44%) of County residents are white, with significant proportions of Asian (16.5%) and
African American (8%) people. The Census tracks Latinx ethnicity separately from other populations; in
total, the Hispanic/Latino population makes up approximately 26% of the total population.
Governance
A five-member Board of Supervisors, each elected to four-year terms, serves as the legislative
body of the County, which has a general law form of government. Also elected are the County Assessor,
Auditor-Controller, Clerk-Recorder, District Attorney, Sheriff-Coroner and Treasurer-Tax Collector. The
County Administrator, Monica Nino, is appointed by the Board and is responsible for running the day-
to-day business of the County.

Legislative Platform Purpose
The Legislative Platform establishes the priorities, principles, and policy statements of the Contra
Costa County Board of Supervisors and creates the basis for its advocacy efforts, alerting our
legislative partners of the greatest needs of our residents and where we need additional help. The
Platform provides general direction to County departments and agencies, legislative advocates,
delegation members, and the public on our positions on key policy matters that would impact the way
the County does business. The Platform also includes new bill requests for which legislation is sought from
Contra Costa County.
Throughout the legislative session, the County will review and take positions on various policy
and State Budget items. When a recommended position is consistent with existing County policy, as
adopted in the Platform, the CAO’s office or department staff will prepare a County position letter for
signature by the Board Chair.
Contra Costa County has also adopted a Delta Water Platform to identify and promote activities
and policy positions that support the creation of a healthy Sacramento-San Joaquin Delta. Contra Costa
County uses this Delta Water Platform to guide its actions and advocacy regarding the future of the
Delta.

INTRODUCTION
County Profile
One of the original 27 counties established in California
in 1850, Contra Costa County is home to more than one
million people, making it the ninth most populous county
in the state. Physically, Contra Costa is over 733 square
miles and extends from the northeastern shore of the San
Francisco Bay easterly about 50 miles to San Joaquin
County. The County is bordered on the south and west
by Alameda County and on the north by the Suisun and
San Pablo Bays. The western and northern shorelines are highly industrialized, while the interior sections
are suburban/residential, commercial and light industrial.
About 40 percent of the county is under the jurisdiction
of 19 incorporated cities and towns, and large portions
of the remaining unincorporated area are part of public
park systems. Most of the population is consolidated
along the major transportation corridors--Interstates 80
and 680, Highways 4 and 24, and the BART lines.
Contra Costa County is also very diverse, with
communities that range from small agricultural towns like
Byron, with a population density of about 200 people
per square mile, to urban population centers like Contra Costa Centre, a bustling transit village with a
population density of 8,400 people per square mile.
With its strategic location as The Capital of The Northern California Mega-RegionTM and easy access
to suppliers and customers, Contra Costa County is a business destination full of opportunity.
Demographic Highlights
Approximately 1.1 million people live in Contra Costa County; only 15%, or about 172,513 people,
reside in the unincorporated areas of the county. The median age of Contra Costa County residents is 39
years old. Our population of seniors age 60 or older is expected to grow by approximately 47%
between 2020 and 2050, making this age group our fastest growing.
4
The majority (44%) of County residents are white, with significant proportions of Asian (16.5%) and
African American (8%) people. The Census tracks Latinx ethnicity separately from other populations; in
total, the Hispanic/Latino population makes up approximately 26% of the total population.
Governance
A five-member Board of Supervisors, each elected to four-year terms, serves as the legislative body of
the County, which has a general law form of government. Also elected are the County Assessor, Auditor-
Controller, Clerk-Recorder, District Attorney, Sheriff-Coroner and Treasurer-Tax Collector. The County
Administrator, Monica Nino, is appointed by the Board and is responsible for running the day-to-day
business of the County.
5
Contra Costa County Board of Supervisors:
District 1: John M. Gioia
District II: Candace Andersen
District III: Diane Burgis
District IV: Karen Mitchoff
District V: Federal D. Glover

Legislative Platform Purpose
The Legislative Platform establishes the priorities, principles, and policy statements of the Contra
Costa County Board of Supervisors and establishes the basis for its advocacy efforts, alerting our
legislative partners of the greatest needs of our residents and where we need additional help. The
Platform also provides general direction to County departments and agencies, legislative advocates,
delegation members, and the public on our positions on key policy matters that would impact the way
the County does business.
Throughout the legislative session, the County will review and take positions on various policy
and regulatory proposals. When a recommended position is consistent with existing County policy, as
adopted in the Platform, the CAO’s office or department staff will prepare a County position letter for
signature by the Board Chair.
Contra Costa County has also adopted a Delta Water Platform to identify and promote activities
and policy positions that support the creation of a healthy Sacramento-San Joaquin Delta. Contra Costa
County uses this Delta Water Platform to guide its actions and advocacy regarding the future of the
Delta.
Mission, Vision, and Values
Contra Costa County has adopted the following Mission, Vision and Values statement:

To: Contra Costa County Board of Supervisors
From: Paul Schlesinger
Perrin Badini
Mackenzie Dobson
Re: 2020 Federal Year End Report
Despite a horribly partisan Congress immobilized by internal and external factors and
marked by the historic impeachment proceedings, the even rarer and all-pervasive
COVID-19 pandemic, the corrosive impact of a late-term Supreme Court nomination,
and the complete polarization created by perhaps the ugliest election cycle in our history,
and despite Congress’s continuation of its self-imposed ban on earmarks, we are pleased
to report significant progress on several fronts important to Contra Costa County.
Ongoing Army Corps Projects
Funding was obtained for water resources projects that are high on the County’s priority
list. In the years since Congress imposed an earmark ban on itself, there are two ways to
secure Army Corps funding for local priorities: (1) work with the Administration to have
them budgeted in the Administration’s budget request, whereafter such amounts are
routinely approved by Congress, and (2) utilize provisions funded in appropriations bills
which provide additional, unallocated funding for the Army Corps, with instructions
that the Corps itself determine how these additional monies are spent as part of a work
plan to be submitted to Congress.
The Omnibus Appropriations measure funding the government for FY ’20 included
$5.774 million for Suisun Bay dredging, compared to $5.8 million in FY ‘20, and $3.005
million for the maintenance dredging of San Pablo Bay and Mare Island Strait, up from
$2.88 million the previous year.
Additionally, as described above, the Omnibus Appropriations legislation instructed the
Army Corps to submit a work plan to Congress within 60 days of the bill’s enactment.
With the President having signed the legislation on December 27, we are now working
to ascertain whether there is a possibility of getting the funding of these projects
increased, or whether they have already been funded at levels that match the capability
of the Corps to work on them this year.
Attachment D
Advocacy related to the Sacramento-San Joaquin Delta
We have been pleased to work extensively with County officials and staff in advocating
before the federal government to achieve the County’s objectives with regard to the Delta.
These efforts have generally been in conjunction with other federal advocates working
on behalf of their clients; the other members of the Delta Counties Coalition (DCC).
Of particular note, when some in the DCC seemed to want to focus on promoting the
development of new water resources, we worked with County staff to try and assure that
the DCC keep as its priority focus its very raison d’etre: the rejection of the Delta
Conveyance project. We also worked with staff to assure that the DCC continued to
vigorously oppose the San Luis Drain settlement.
Funding for Mount Diablo Mercury Mine Clean-up
We continued to keep alive federal funding sources for the clean-up of the
Mount Diablo Mercury Mine. Given the moratorium on earmarks, we recognized several
years ago that it would not be possible to secure a line-item appropriation for this
important project. So, we worked to include language in the Statement of Managers
accompanying a Water Resources Development Act (WRDA), specifically directing the
Army Corps to give priority consideration to the Mount Diablo Cleanup when allocating
funds made available for the Remediation of Abandoned Mine Sites program (RAMS).
With this, we remain comfortable that any funding made available in Appropriations bills
for the general RAMS program is virtually certain to be provided for our project whenever
we may be ready for it.
We are pleased that, despite the fact that the Administration failed to recommend any
funding for the RAMS program, at the County’s request, Congress included $2 million in
its final appropriations bill for FY ’21. Senator Feinstein, in her role as ranking Democrat
on the Senate Appropriations Subcommittee on Energy and Water Development, has
been a champion in securing funding for this program. Her staff has been quite explicit
in telling us that the funding is intended to assist with our project.
Moreover, the Water Resources Development Act (additional information immediately
following) increased by $10 million the total amount authorized for RAMS projects.
Water Resources Development Act (WRDA)
It has been the general intent of Congressional leadership to pass, every two years, a
Water Resources Development Act (WRDA) authorizing projects and programs for the
Army Corps of Engineers. In 2019, we were told by County staff of their concern that
existing law posed an impediment to pursuing worthwhile projects in distressed
communities in the County. In some cases, the County would serve as the nonfederal
sponsor on a project, but existing law required that the County put up its 50% share of
the cost of a feasibility study (local share generally capped at $1.5 million) which it
hesitates to do because of the uncertainty that the study will conclude that the project is
economically feasible (having a positive benefit-cost ratio) sufficient to allow it to move
forward.
Working with House Committee staff, a provision was developed providing that for
projects in disadvantaged communities, the Corps will review the economic feasibility of
a project and let the community know if it is likely to be economically feasible before the
feasibility study (which reviews both the economic and technical feasibility of a project)
is begun. If it appears that a project may not be economically feasible (would produce a
negative benefit-cost ratio) they will inform the community of modifications that might
make it so. So, no cost share needs to be provided for a project that is not likely to be
economically feasible. This provision is also likely to reduce the cost of a feasibility study,
since this work has been undertaken prior to the initiation of the study. WRDA, in a
separate section, clarifies that for the purposes of this provision, a disadvantaged
community can be part of a larger community, such as a county, that is not disadvantaged
and which is the local sponsor.
Another provision of the bill directs the Corps to prioritize planning projects related to
climate change and extreme weather resiliency in disadvantaged communities.
Additionally, we worked with Congressman DeSaulnier’s office to amend WRDA in its
markup by the House Transportation and Infrastructure Committee to assist the County
with its harmful algal bloom predicament.
Upon the Committee’s release of its draft bill shortly before markup, we noted that the
Great Lakes, the tidal and inland waters of the State of New Jersey, and Lake Okeechobee,
Florida were specifically named as locations where the Corps should carry out “a
demonstration program to determine the causes of, and impement measures to
effectively detect, prevent, treat, and eliminate, harmful algal blooms”. When we called
this provision to the attention of Congressman DeSaulnier’s office, and asked if he could
add the County’s waterways to the designated list, they readily agreed. Then, when
Congressman Garamendi’s office learned of our efforts, as a Committee Member he
suggested that all the waterways of each of the five counties of the Delta Counties
Coalition be similarly included. Congressman DeSaulnier offered the amendment in that
form, and it was adopted. The provision became law with the President’s signature on
December 27.
Finally, WRDA includes a construction authorization for an ecosystem restoration project
at Big Break utilizing the beneficial reuse of dredged materials from the Stockton Deep
Water Ship Channel to restore 340 acres of intertidal marsh, a historical marsh previously
converted into farmland until a levee break in 1928 inundated the island. Since then, Big
Break has remained unvegetated open water. The project authorizes about $16.7 million
in federal funding toward the $25.7 million total project cost. The State Department of
Water Resources is the nonfederal sponsor.
Other Advocacy Projects
From the County’s extensive legislative program, we were asked to focus particularly on

In addition to managing the issues on the County’s legislative platform, and given the
dynamic nature of events in Washington, we have also brought various matters of
interest to the County’s attention and assisted the County when new matters surfaced
that required communication with, or the input of, our delegation.
Some of the diverse issues we have called to the County’s attention, worked on at the
County’s behalf, or simply informed our Congressional delegation about, include:
• our COVID-related needs which, of course, required our consistent and ongoing
monitoring, communication, and advocacy since mid-March;
• refugee resettlement in the County;
• habitat conservation planning;
• our opposition to SNAP rules changes;
• cybersecurity legislation;
• legislation on VA benefits for survivors;
• Build America Bonds;
• Congresswoman Speier’s San Francisco Bay Restoration Act;
• broadband development legislation; and
• the BNSF Railway presence at Miller-Knox Regional Shoreline.
Activities such as these certainly contribute to the long-held perception around Capitol
Hill and elsewhere in Washington that Alcalde & Fay serves as the County’s office here
in town; a place that these offices can call, trusting that they will be communicating, if
through an agent, with appropriate County officials.
As always, it has been a privilege to represent the County with its efforts as they relate to
the federal government. We would be pleased to elaborate on any aspect of this work,
and look forward to continuing work on your behalf in the year ahead.
RECOMMENDATION(S):
APPROVE the creation of a 17-member Community Advisory Committee to recommend the budget
allocation for 50% of the annual revenue received under Measure X funds as set forth in this Board Order;
and
DIRECT the County Administrator to return to the Board by February 9, 2021 with a process to move
forward in soliciting applications and seating members on the Community Advisory Committee by
mid-March 2021 consistent with the process set forth in this Board Order.
FISCAL IMPACT:
No fiscal impact at this time. Once the Community Advisory Committee is formed and begins to meet, staff
time will need to be allocated to the work of the committee for the third and fourth quarters of FY 20-21.
BACKGROUND:
The voters passed Measure X, a ½ cent sales tax levied countywide (exempting food sales), in November
2020. Collection of the sales tax will begin in April 2021 and will be available for distribution in FY
2021-22.

By: , Deputy
cc:
D.8
To:Board of Supervisors
From:Karen Mitchoff, District IV Supervisor
Date:January 19, 2021
Contra
Costa
County
Subject:Establishment of a Community Advisory Committee for Measure X
BACKGROUND: (CONT'D)
A needs assessment was performed in 2019, and the following services were identified as high priorities:
Fire and Emergency Services
Hospital and Community Health
Early Childhood and Youth Services
Senior Services
Safety Net Services; e.g., expanding access to shelter, expanding food security,
homelessness assistance programs, etc.
Now that the measure has passed, it is appropriate to bring together community members and various other
stakeholders as members of a Community Advisory Committee to make recommendations on Measure X
expenditures.
The stakeholder group that met prior to putting Measure X on the ballot recently held discussions as to the
makeup of an Oversight Committee; however, a Community Advisory Committee must first be appointed in
order to make recommendations to the Board of Supervisors on how some of the funds should be allocated
based on the needs assessment. An Oversight Committee will be created by the beginning of the FY
2021-22 (August 2021) so that as tax proceeds are received and allocated, the Oversight Committee can
meet on a quarterly basis to review revenues and expenditures to determine that funds were appropriately
received and spent. This Board Order specifically deals with creating the Community Advisory Committee
at this time; the process for appointing the Oversight Committee will be discussed in May or June 2021.
Amount of Revenue to be Allocated:
The Community Advisory Committee shall make budget allocation recommendations
to the Board of Supervisors for 50% of the annual revenue received under Measure X
based on Measure X priorities/needs as identified in the most recent Needs Assessment
The Board of Supervisors shall make budget allocations for 45% of the annual revenue
received under Measure X in an open transparent process with public input and
comment and based on Measure X priorities/principles and as identified in the most
recent Needs Assessment; and
5% of the annual revenue be set aside in a special interest-bearing reserve account for
unanticipated needs that arise during a given fiscal year. These funds could only be
expended by a four-fifith’s (4/5th’s)`vote of the Board of Supervisors.
Responsibilities: The Community Advisory Committee’s main responsibilities:
Overseeing an annual assessment of community needs, focusing primarily on the
priority areas identified in this year’s Needs Assessment, including emergency response
(fire/medical), health care, safety net services, preventative care, affordable housing,
and supports for early childhood, youth, families, and seniors.
Creating detailed priority lists of the top ten service gaps (county- and
community-provided) based on the results from the needs assessment.
Using the assessment to make general funding priority recommendations to the Board
of Supervisors on 50% of the revenue generated by Measure X.
Providing an annual report on the outcomes and impact of allocated funds.
The committee shall initially meet as needed to develop a recommended annual budget
allocation plan, and thereafter shall meet quarterly.
Membership: The Community Advisory Committee shall be composed of 17 individuals and its
membership should represent broad and diverse voices, perspectives and expertise, including but not
exclusive to: budget justice advocacy, children’s services, community health, consumer advocacy, faith
leadership, senior services, fire and public safety protection, housing and homelessness, labor union
representation, legal advocacy, local businesses, mental health services, non-partisan civic organizations,
policy organizations, public health, racial justice and equity, safety net services, senior services, substance
use services, taxpayers, and youth services.
Committee members should have expertise in an area outlined above or that is
otherwise in accordance with the priorities set by the ballot measure and needs
assessment.
Representation on the committee shall be from community-based organizations and
residents from across the county who have received county- and community-provided
services in the areas identified.
Committee members shall either live or work in Contra Costa County, with a majority
being residents of the County.
Appointment Process: The County will solicit applications to fill the 17 member committee.
Applications shall be referred to the Board Finance Committee which shall make recommendations to the
full Board of Supervisors on appointments to the Community Advisory Committee. The Board shall make
every effort to insure that there is representation from the broadest cross-section of stakeholders as
described in the “Membership” section above, as well as geographic, racial and ethnic representation
reflecting the County’s diversity.
Terms: The initial members of the Community Advisory Committee shall serve staggered terms of two or
three years, and subsequent appointments serving three-year terms, with a maximum of six years served
consecutively by any member.

ATTACHMENTS
Resolution 2021/29
In the matter of:Resolution No. 2021/29
Proclaiming January 2021 as Human Trafficking Awareness Month in Contra Costa County
WHEREAS, human trafficking is a form of abuse in which force, fraud or coercion is
used to manipulate victims for the purpose of commercial sexual or labor exploitation;
that occurs in every industry and affects individuals of all genders, ages and of all
backgrounds; and
WHEREAS, human trafficking is a lucrative industry and the fastest growing criminal
industry in the world; and uses violent and exploitive tactics to target vulnerable
members of our communities; and
WHEREAS, the crime of human trafficking violates an individual's privacy, dignity,
security and humanity due to the systematic use of physical, emotional, sexual,
psychological and economic exploitation, control and/or abuse; and
WHEREAS, the impact of human trafficking is wide-ranging, directly affecting
foreign nationals as well as US citizens, and society as a whole; victims experience
trauma, violence, lies and coercion at the hands of their traffickers. It is often the most
at risk members of our communities who are affected by human trafficking; and
WHEREAS, as of from January 1, 2019 to December 31, 2019, 11,500 human
trafficking cases were reported nationally to the National Human Trafficking
Resource Center; of those reports, the majority of cases were reported in California.
Contra Costa County is not immune to human trafficking. While underreported, over
the last four years the Contra Costa Human Trafficking Coalition and several partner
agencies including Community Violence Solutions, STAND! for Families Free of
Violence, Bay Area Legal Aid, International Rescue Committee and Calli House,
identified and served over 500 victims of human trafficking.
WHEREAS, the County's Alliance to End Abuse acknowledges that fighting
exploitation and human trafficking is a shared community responsibility and therefore
has worked with numerous public and private agencies to establish the Contra Costa
Human Trafficking Coalition and the Contra Costa Human Trafficking Task Force in
partnership with the District Attorney’s office, in order to strengthen the County’s
comprehensive response to human trafficking initiated by county departments, law
enforcement agencies, and numerous community and faith-based organizations; and
continuing to build its collaboration by linking with local, regional and federal
agencies; and
WHEREAS, Contra Costa County is working to raise awareness so individuals will
become more informed, identify ways their behavior contributes to a patriarchal
culture that supports and tolerates the systemic abuse of vulnerable populations that
include women and people of color; and take action to end human trafficking in their
communities.
that the County of Contra Costa does hereby proclaim January 2021 as HUMAN TRAFFICKING AWARENESS MONTH, and
urges all residents to actively participate in the efforts to both raise awareness of, and end, all forms of human trafficking in our
communities. During Human Trafficking Awareness Month, let us recognize the survivors of trafficking, and let us resolve to
build a future in which no people are denied their inherent human rights of freedom and dignity. Let us make it known that
human trafficking has no place in this city, this county, this nation or this world.

Healthy Outdoor Challenge; the expansion of the Healthy Parks Healthy People
initiative through partnering with the NPS; and working with hospitals on science
based health outreach through programs such as the Parks Rx SHINE (Stay Healthy in

to the science that overwhelmingly shows time in nature has multiple health benefits,
and a view that parks are an important part of the health care system; and
WHEREAS, before and during his time with EBRPD Robert helped form, and served
on, various diverse parks and open space committees such as: founding member and

the Family and Human Services Committee requested the county to conduct classification and
compensation studies for twelve (12) classifications in Employment and Human Services Department
(EHSD), Community Services Bureau (CSB). The main reasons for this request were the lack of staffing
and feedback received for candidates that the salary was too low to accept the position offered and
feedback from resigning staff that they could no longer afford to hold the position while living in the
area. In addition, there are Head Start salary studies which confirmed that the average salaries of some of
our Head Start services support classifications are lower in comparison to other regional agencies. In
March 2020 Human Resources completed the classification and compensation studies within the nine
Bay Area and adjacent counties; the studies recommended varying levels of salary increases for 8 of the
12 classifications to bring them up to median market, livable, and competitive salary levels. Human
Resources additionally recommends collapsing Child Nutrition Worker II and Child Nutrition Worker
III classifications into one Child Nutrition Cook classification due to the similar job descriptions and
minimum qualifications. For this purpose, the department is submitting this P300 Board Order Request
addressing the three (3) classifications of Child Nutrition Worker I-Project (98W1); Child Nutrition
Worker II-Project (98G1); and Child Nutrition Worker III-Project (98G2). Hence, the proposed salary
increases and the collapsing of Child Nutrition Worker II –Project and Child Nutrition III-Project levels
into one Child Nutrition Cook-Project job classification are aligned with Human Resources
Compensation Salary Studies and resulting recommendation by Human Resources staff. Full and robust
staffing ensures compliance with strict child nutrition mandates of state and federal funders. The
proposed adjustment and reallocation of the above salaries will support improved recruitment, hiring
and retention efforts.
CONSEQUENCE OF NEGATIVE ACTION:
If this action is not approved, CSB will continue to be at high risk for vacancies and high turn-over in
these positions that are essential to child nutrition unit operation and required services, which will place
the program in non-compliance for meeting state regulations and federal funder requirements to provide
daily nutritional requirements for the children.
CHILDREN'S IMPACT STATEMENT:
The Community Services Bureau of the EHSD's Head Start, Early Head Start and Early Head Start
Childcare Partnership programs support three (3) 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.

the need for future correction journals.
These positions will time certify and the appropriate costs will be allocated to the Community Services
Bureau and the Administrative Services Bureau.
BACKGROUND:
In August 2006, the Board of Supervisors approved a proposal to integrate the Community Services
Department into the Employment and Human Services Department (EHSD). In January 2007, the Board
gave final approval to the merger and the integration of the Community Services Bureau Chart of
Accounts into the EHSD Chart of Accounts. The Board took this action in order to increase
administrative efficiencies and improve the coordination of services to common customer populations.
To improve Personnel efficiency, Community Services Department Personnel and EHSD Personnel have
been merged in a single Personnel Unit in the Administrative Services Bureau in EHSD. All Personnel
staff will report to the Department Personnel Officer to provide back-up services and eliminate
duplication.
CONSEQUENCE OF NEGATIVE ACTION:
If this action is not approved, the Department’s budget will not align with its position management data,
and the County will not be able to maximize efficiency in administering Personnel functions.

C. 22

From:Kathy Gallagher, Employment & Human Services Director
Date:January 19, 2021

County
Subject:Reassign a project position and incumbent from CSB to Admin Bureau and transition the project position and
incumbent into the merit system
BACKGROUND:
Employment and Human Services Department is requesting to reassign one (1) Intermediate Level Clerk
- Project position and incumbent from the Personnel Unit of the Community Services Bureau (CSB) to
the Administrative Services Bureau of the Department. This is consistent with the merger between CSB
and the rest of the bureaus of the EHSD. This will support the coordination of assignments and
effectiveness of the EHSD Personnel Unit.
Further, the Employment and Human Services Department (EHSD) is requesting to transition the
Intermediate Level Clerk - Project position and incumbent into the merit system. The incumbent has met
the provisions for transition from project to the merit system in accordance with PMR Section 1603.1 -
Project Positions Transfer and 1603.10 - Requirement for Competitive Examination.
Section 1603.1 of the Personnel Management Regulations states that when the Board of Supervisors
establishes as regular service a program initially established by the Board for a specific limited period as
part of an approved project, employees who have served in project positions at least one (1) year shall be
included in the merit system if the Director of Human Resources recommends such inclusion, the Board
of Supervisors approves the classification and its addition to the merit system, and the employee(s) was
originally appointed to the project position from an eligible list on an open competitive basis. Human
Resources has verified that the incumbent in position was appointed to the Project Position on April 24,
2018, from an eligibility list on an open competitive basis and has served for more than one (1) year.
CONSEQUENCE OF NEGATIVE ACTION:
If this action is not approved, the incumbent will not receive the benefits of being a Merit System
employee. This may also create some inequalities since this clerical position is part of the Personnel Unit
where all the rest of the positions/employees are part of the merit system.

RECOMMENDATION(S):
ADOPT Position Adjustment Resolution No. 25676 to increase the hours of one Licensed Vocational Nurse
(VT7G) position #8911 at salary plan and grade level TAX-1287 ($4,692-$5,992) from 32/40 to 40/40 in
the Health Services Department.(Represented)
FISCAL IMPACT:
Upon approval, this action has an approximate annual cost of $22,864 with $8,867 in pension costs already
included. The increased hours will be funded 100% by the department's General Fund allocation.
BACKGROUND:
The Health Services Department is requesting to increase the hours of one Licensed Vocational Nurse
position #8911 from 32/40 to 40/40 in the Health Services Department. The incumbent has been working
full-time hours over the last six months and per Teamsters MOU (page 94, section 48), is requesting to
formally increase their position hours. The department has confirmed there is an ongoing need for the
increased hours, based on increase in nursing duties/needing coverage as a result of COVID-19 and
covering hours for staff who are on leave.
CONSEQUENCE OF NEGATIVE ACTION:
If this action is not approved, Detention Nursing within the Health Services Department will not have
adequate staffing to meet the demand and volume of patient care needed for those we serve.

Department 0463 (Health, Housing, and Homeless Services) and decrease by $252,146 in Department 0454

The Department is requesting to reassign the two positions to the Health, Housing and Homeless Services
as they were initially added to the Public Administrator Program in error. Consequently, HS Finance has
been manually adjusting the positions' funding sources each month to the correct department budget org.
The Public Health Program Specialist I-Project position implements several programs including the
Homeless Mentally Ill Outreach and Treatment, Housing Security Fund Administration, and CalWORKs
Rapid Rehousing Program; and the Account Clerk-Advanced Level position supports the invoicing and
procurement activities in the Health, Housing and Homeless Services.

(APHA) (represented) position at salary plan and grade ZA2 1771 ($93,923.40- $114,436.44) and cancel
one (1) vacant Office of Reentry and Justice Senior Program Analyst (APTD) (unrepresented) position in
the Probation Department.
FISCAL IMPACT:
Upon approval, this request has an annual cost of $8,745, including approximately $$1,954 in pension costs.
This position is 100% funded by AB109 criminal justice realignment revenue.
BACKGROUND:
The Office of Reentry and Justice (ORJ) is in the process of completing staffing updates to centralize the
department's contracting, vendor oversight, and fiscal reporting activities. The newly added staff will allow
the ORJ to focus its efforts on the successful coordination, implementation, and support for the various
programs and projects that comprise the County’s reentry system of care. In support of these evolving
endeavors, the immediate hiring of the Program and Projects Coordinator is necessary. The staffing update
also includes the canceling of a vacant Office of Reentry and Justice Senior Program Analyst
(unrepresented) position.

Subject:Reallocate the salaries of five (5) classifications on the Salary Schedule
FISCAL IMPACT: (CONT'D)
100% Head Start/Early Head Start and Early Head Start Childcare Partnership revenues. This action has
no impact to county general fund.
Specifically, the annual incremental salary and fringe benefits increase for the Child Nutrition Food
Service Transporter-Project (per position) is $10,445, for the Community Services Building Services
Worker-Project (per position) is $15,731, for the Associate Teacher-Project (per position) is $2,070, for
the Infant Toddler (I/T) Associate Teacher-Project (per position) is $2,070 and for the Teacher Assistant
Trainee-Project (per position) is $6,906.
BACKGROUND:
For several years Community Services Bureau (CSB) has hovered at a 10% shortage in its teaching
positions; primarily Associate Teacher positions and particularly those serving Infants and Toddlers in
West County. CSB has also been unable to fully fill the Child Nutrition Food Service Transporter vacant
positions for the past several years. Contra Costa surrounding school districts and other employers are
currently offering more competitive salaries making it difficult to fill vacancies and retain staff due to
the high cost of living in the Bay Area and the current below-median salaries of these classifications. In
2019 CSB closed Crescent Park Center due to low staffing in an effort to transfer staff to other vacancies
to meet enrollment and attendance requirements county-wide.
In October 2019 the Family and Human Services Committee requested the county to conduct
classification and compensation studies for twelve (12) classifications in Employment and Human
Services Department (EHSD), Community Services Bureau (CSB). The main reasons for this request
were the lack of staffing and feedback received from candidates that the salary was too low to accept the
position offered and feedback from resigning staff that they could no longer afford to hold the position
while living in the area. In addition, there are Head Start salary studies which confirmed that the average
salaries of some of our teaching classifications are lower in comparison to other regional agencies. In
March 2020 Human Resources completed the classification and compensation studies in nine Bay Area
and adjacent counties; the studies recommends varying levels of salary increases for 8 of the 12
classifications to bring them up to median market, livable, and competitive salary levels. For this
purpose, the department is submitting two (2) P300 Board Orders; this P300 request addresses the first
five (5) classifications as follow:
Teacher Assistant Trainee-Project (CJK1));1.
Child Nutrition Food Service Transporter-Project (98W2);2.
Community Services Building Services Worker-Project (9KV8);3.
Associate Teacher-Project (CJW1);4.
Infant-Toddler (IT) Associate Teacher (CJW2);
The proposed salary increases for these specifically noted five (5) classifications are
aligned with Human Resources Compensation Salary Studies and resulting
recommendation by Human Resources staff. Full and robust staffing ensures
mandated teacher-child ratios are met which ensures compliance with strict
attendance and enrollment mandates of state and federal funders. The proposed
adjustment and reallocation of the above salaries will support improved recruitment,
hiring and retention efforts.
5.
CONSEQUENCE OF NEGATIVE ACTION:
If this action is not approved, CSB will continue to have vacancies and high turn-over in these positions
If this action is not approved, CSB will continue to have vacancies and high turn-over in these positions
essential to childcare and child nutrition unit operation and services. When teaching positions remain
unfilled, basic mandates for rations, attendance and enrollment cannot be met. These unmet needs lead to
persistent non-compliance with regulations and adverse impact to county families and children who
cannot be enrolled and/or are not able to attend class due to low classroom staffing. When Transporter
positions remain vacant, child nutrition operation is impacted while other unit shift to cover this essential
daily tasks and food may not be delivered timely, which may place the program in non-compliance for
meeting daily nutritional requirements for the children. If Building Service Workers salaries are not
increased to meet the median income ranges the program will be unable to retain current staff and fill
resulting vacancies, leaving the centers without essential facility support to meet state and federal health
and safety requirements on a daily basis.

Information
Recommendation(s):
APPROVE and AUTHORIZE the Chief Information Officer, Department of Information
Technology (DoIT), or designee, to execute a Master Subscription Agreement with Workday,
Inc., for a subscription license to Workday's hosted financial management system, for the period
January 11, 2021 through January 7, 2030, in the amount of $9,998,362.00.
Fiscal Impact:
Initial implementation of the new Finance System will be funded by General Fund reserves.
Ongoing subscription fees will be charged to user departments and allowable costs will be
recovered through the cost plan.
The cost for the first year of the agreement is $702,869, increasing to $1,083,016 in year two with
2% increases thereafter for the remaining seven (7) years of the agreement.
Background:
DoIT, Auditor-Controller's Office, and the Tax Collectors Office are requesting authority to
DoIT, Auditor-Controller's Office, and the Tax Collectors Office are requesting authority to
subscribe to Workday’s hosted financial management system to replace the County's legacy
financial system.
The Auditor-Controller's Office oversees the financial operations of Contra Costa County. The
Auditor- Controller's Office utilizes the Accounting Resource Management System (ARMS) to
provide accounting, budgeting, and financial services to County departments, school districts,
special districts and cities as defined under Government Code.
The current Finance system was initially implemented in 1978 as an enterprise solution for
submitting financial transactions, making inquiries and running reports in a real-time
environment. The existing system is at the end of its useful life and does not support new
hardware or software enhancements. As a result, support costs for maintaining the legacy system
have increased annually. In addition, new business functionalities and reporting capabilities
necessary to comply with federal and state regulatory or statutory requirements are being
performed manually with non-standardized business tools.
In 2020, a business case evaluating the feasibility of replacing the County's financial system with
a new system was completed by consultant Gartner, Inc. and presented to the PeopleSoft Steering
Committee. The PeopleSoft Steering Committee is comprised of executive members from the
County Administrators Office, Auditor-Controller's Office, Tax Collectors Office, Human
Resources and DoIT. The business case identified the following three alternative solutions for the
County's consideration:
Remaining on the current legacy systems.1.
Replace the legacy mainframe financial system with an off the shelf system.2.
Develop a new in-house system.3.
Subsequently, the three alternatives were reviewed and evaluated by members of the PeopleSoft
Steering Committee to identify the overall cost and benefits of the proposed alternatives, which
best met the County's current and future needs.
At the conclusion of their review, it was determined that a single new finance system
has-the-ability to support the functionality identified below and would best meet the County's
Finance needs:
Enhance internal communications through-the-use of information technology and improved
business processes.
Support continual innovation to encourage implementation of best business practices (i.e.
encourage streamlining and automation of standard business transactions, enhanced processing
and on-line capabilities, etc.).
Obtain enhanced features and functionality to support increased automation and operational
efficiencies (i.e. workflow, self-service, document imaging, employee expense reimbursement,
grant management, etc.).
Encourage the implementation of standard functionality and best business practices embedded in
the solution to reduce long-term maintenance impacts and avoid or minimize customizations.
Improve quality and accessibility of information through standard reports, ad hoc tools and the
ability to create new reports. Information access must be perceived by the County's average user
as intuitive and efficient.
Reduce redundant data entry, storage, and paper processing.
Ensure that the finance platform remains viable and is supported by an achievable product
roadmap.
Utilize technology investment to reduce cost, waste and duplication while increasing productivity,
and workflow efficiency overall.
The proposed finance system should provide integrated functionality, meaning that the individual
components of the system utilize a shared repository of information and processes to ensure all
users have access to the same information, redundant data entry is not required, reduces
departmental reliance on stand-alone systems, and that each of the components has a similar "look
and feel".
PROCUREMENT PROCESS: DoIT enlisted the assistance of the Procurement Division to
develop a Request for Proposal (RFP) for the selection and procurement of a new finance system.
The RFP was issued on August 20, 2020, posted to the County’s Procurement website and notices
sent to three firms advising them of the RFP. The Procurement Division received two responsive
proposals.
An evaluation panel comprised of representatives from DoIT, Tax Collectors Office, and
Auditor-Controller's Office reviewed the responses in accordance with the evaluation criteria
contained within the RFP. Based on the evaluation of the proposals received, the panel
determined that the two firms met the County's requirements and were recommended for
interviews. These firms included Workday Inc. of Pleasanton, CA; Oracle Public Sector, of Los
Angeles. At the conclusion of the final interviews, Workday, Inc. was identified as the application
that best met the County's requirements.
The Master Subscription Agreement will give the County rights to the following services:
Core Financials: Financial management, accounting and reporting, financial consolidation
Grants management: Tracking and managing sponsors, awards, grants and grant hierarchies
Prism Analytics: Data repository for storage and management of data and tools for the blending and analysis
of data from various sources
Project management: Ability to build project plans and utilize project breakdown structures that includes
phases, tasks and milestones
Expenses: Self-service and administrative functions to support employee expense reporting and
reimbursement
The system will be hosted by Workday on its servers, but the County will engage a separate third
party contractor to implement the system.
The County can only cancel the contract if Workday breaches the contract, files bankruptcy, or
the board of supervisors fails to appropriate funds for a third party financial management system
in any fiscal year.
If an unauthorized party accesses County’s data on the Workday hosted system, Workday will
reimburse the County for (a) its costs of forensic investigation to determine the cause of the
breach, (b) providing notification of the security breach to government agencies, and to
individuals whose personal data may have been accessed or acquired, (c) providing credit
monitoring service to individuals whose personal data may have been accessed or acquired for a
period of one year after the date on which such individuals were notified of the unauthorized
access or acquisition for such individuals who elected such credit monitoring service, and (d)
operating a call center to respond to questions from individuals whose personal data may have
been accessed or acquired for a period of one year after.
Workday’s liability for a breach of County data caused by their failure to perform under the
agreement is limited to reimbursement of the costs listed in the foregoing sentence, and two times
the amount paid by County for the service in the preceding year, approximately $2,000,000.
Consequence of Negative Action:
The current financial system is at end of life. It has become a challenge to hire or contract support
staff to support the system as the programming language is no longer being taught in schools and
there are very few individuals with the skill set in the workforce. If the current system is not
replaced the County will continue to endure elevated support costs and could face significant
downtime in the event of a system failure.

RECOMMENDATION(S):
APPROVE and AUTHORIZE the Chief Information Officer, Department of Information Technology, or
designee, to execute a contract with Leckey Consulting, Inc. in amount not to exceed $948,500, for the
period of February 1, 2021 through November 30, 2022 to provide project management and consulting
services to implement Workday, the County’s financial management modernization software.
FISCAL IMPACT:
100% General Fund
BACKGROUND:
In July 2019, the County contracted with a third-party to assess our legacy financial management
system. The contractor had numerous meetings and interviews with the various stakeholders of
the system and thereafter submitted a System Modernization Analysis Report. This report
concluded that the County would be best served by replacing the entire system rather than
update it. Subsequently, a Request for Proposal (RFP) was issued to qualified bidders who could
provide a comprehensive financial management software system and the firm Workday was
chosen as the successful bidder.

Subject:Execute a contract with Leckey Consulting, Inc.
BACKGROUND: (CONT'D)
The process to implement Workday will be a labor-intensive effort and will require someone to provide a
day-to-day, hands-on management approach without having to address any outside competing
responsibilities or obligations. Because of the complexity of the project and the need to adhere to a tight
timeframe and budget, the County has opted to hire an independent project manager to oversee and lead the
implementation effort. Another RFP was issued and the successful bidder is Leckey Consulting, Inc. Steve
Leckey, President of Leckey Consulting, Inc. will lead this project and Mr. Leckey has been involved with
over 29 Enterprise Resource Planning Financial Management modernization projects consisting of
assessments of current systems, software selection, executive oversight, quality assurance services and/or

Professional and has over 25 year of combined consulting and public sector experience. In the past several
years, Mr. Leckey has successfully completed financial management software implementations for Sonoma
and Placer Counties.
CONSEQUENCE OF NEGATIVE ACTION:
If this contract is not approved, the County will need to find a way to provide the necessary
resources to lead this initiative which could significantly delay the project would not be
cost-effective.

in Contra Costa County (Gov. Code Section 8625) due to COVID-19. The Health Department must use all
available preventative measures to combat the spread of COVID-19. The department must enter into

Subject:Contract Amendment Agreement #23-613-6 with Bayside Solutions, Inc.
BACKGROUND: (CONT'D)
On April 28, 2020, the Board of Supervisors approved Contract #23-613-5, with Bayside Solutions, Inc., in
the amount of $2,000,000 for the provision of qualified temporary consulting and technical support
services, and contract-to-hire and/or direct placement candidates for hard to fill positions in the Health
Services Department’s Information Systems Unit for the period January 1, 2020 through June 30, 2022.
Approval of Contract Amendment Agreement #23-613-6 will allow Contractor to continue providing
temporary consulting, technical support and recruiting services for hard to fill positions to the Health
Services Department’s Information Technology Unit also allowing the Unit to respond to the increasing
needs of other Health Services departments due to the onset of COVID-19, through June 30, 2022.
CONSEQUENCE OF NEGATIVE ACTION:
If this contract is not approved, the Health Services Information Technology Unit will not be able to add the
necessary temporary staff as needs arise and would not be able to respond to the needs of all of health
services in a timely manner.
RECOMMENDATION(S):
APPROVE and AUTHORIZE the Health Services Director, or designee, to execute on behalf of the
County Contract #26-874-5 containing mutual indemnification with META Dynamic, Inc., a corporation, in
an amount not to exceed $105,000, to provide a guidance navigation system, related software, accessories
and certified technicians for locating tumors in the Surgical Unit at Contra Costa Regional Medical Center
(CCRMC), for the period November 1, 2020 through October 31, 2023.
FISCAL IMPACT:
This contract will result in contractual service expenditures of up to $105,000 over a 3 year period and will
be funded 100% by Hospital Enterprise Fund I revenues. (Rate increase)
BACKGROUND:
CCRMC has been contracting with META Dynamic, Inc., since November 2015 for their expertise in
tumor locating services. This contractor employs individuals that are specially trained, experienced,
competent, certified and licensed to perform medical services using the Surgical Image Guidance
Navigation System (IGS) plus related software and accessories, and/or the Ultrasonic Aspirator (UA) to
locate throat tumors in patients in the Surgical Unit at CCRMC.

Subject:Contract #26-874-5 with META Dynamic, Inc.
BACKGROUND: (CONT'D)
On November 5, 2019, the Board of Supervisors approved Contract #26-874-4 with META Dynamic, Inc.,
for the provision of guidance navigation system, related software, accessories and certified technicians for
locating tumors in the Surgical Unit at CCRMC, for the period from November 1, 2019 through October
31, 2020.
Approval of Contract #26-874-5 will allow the contractor to continue to provide tumor locating services
through October 31, 2023. This contract includes mutual indemnification to hold harmless both parties for
any claims arising out of the performance of this contract.
CONSEQUENCE OF NEGATIVE ACTION:
If this contract is not approved, patients of the Surgical Unit at Contra Costa Regional Medical requiring
tumor locating procedures will not have access to the contractor’s services.
RECOMMENDATION(S):
ADOPT Resolution No. 2021/28 approving the Recognized Obligation Payment Schedule (“ROPS 21-22”)
and administrative budget for the Successor Agency (“Administrative Budget”) for the period of July 1,
2021 through June 30, 2022.
FISCAL IMPACT:
No impact to the General Fund. Since the Contra Costa County Redevelopment Agency dissolved (the
“Dissolved RDA”), the tax allotment is now deposited in the Redevelopment Property Tax Trust Fund
(“RPTTF”), which is administered by the County Auditor-Controller. Distributions are made semi-annually
from the RPTTF to the Successor Agency by the County Auditor-Controller to fund the Successor Agency's
administrative budget and Recognized Obligation Payment Schedule. These funds are distinct and separate
from other funds used by the Department of Conservation and Development. According to State law, any
obligation of the Successor Agency that cannot be funded by the RPTTF would not be an obligation of the
County.

Subject:Recognized Obligation Payment Schedule (ROPS) and Administrative Budget for July 1, 2021 - June 30, 2022
BACKGROUND:
Recognized Obligation Payment Schedule 21-22
Resolution No. 2021/28 adopts ROPS 21-22, which is included as Exhibit A to this report. After
adoption by the Successor Agency, ROPS 21-22 will be submitted to the Countywide Oversight Board
for approval. The Oversight Board is scheduled to meet on January 25, 2021. As required under Health
and Safety Code Section 34179.6, ROPS 21-22 will be submitted to the State Controller's Office,
Department of Finance (DOF) and the County Auditor-Controller, and will be posted on the Successor
Agency's website. The DOF must receive ROPS 21-22 no later than February 1, 2021.
Administrative Budget
Pursuant to Health & Safety Code Section 34177, the Successor Agency staff prepares a budget for the
fiscal year. The state statute specifies a minimum administrative cost allowance to the Successor Agency
for its administrative costs, using a percentage of property tax revenue allocated by the County
Auditor-Controller to the Successor Agency to meet enforceable obligations. The County
Auditor-Controller calculates the allowance using three percent of the distribution to be received by the
Successor Agency from the Redevelopment Property Tax Trust Funds (RPTTF) or $250,000 for the
fiscal year, whichever amount is greater. The Successor Agency will budget for the minimum $250,000
for FY 21-22. The administrative budget is attached as Exhibit B.
CONSEQUENCE OF NEGATIVE ACTION:
Failure to adopt the resolution would require the Board to consider other options for providing and
funding staff support for the Successor Agency. Without approving the Recognized Obligation Payment
Schedule, the County Auditor-Controller would not be able to allocate funds to the Successor Agency
for staffing services and payment of recognized obligations during this twelve-month period, and the
Successor Agency would risk defaulting on enforceable obligations.

Advisory Council on Aging 1
Advisory Council Objectives
The Council shall provide a means for countywide planning, cooperation and coordination for
individuals and groups interested in improving and developing services and opportunities for
older residents of this county. The Council provides leadership and advocacy on behalf of
older persons and serves as a channel of communication and information on aging issues.
The Council advises each: the Area Agency on Aging on the development of its Area Plan, the
Bureau of Aging and Adult Services, Employment and Human Services and the Board of
Supervisors. The basis of the Area Agency on Aging Area Plan is on unmet needs and priorities
experienced by older persons, as determined by assessments and input from the senior
network throughout the County.

Contra Costa County 2020 Annual Report
Advisory Council on Aging 1
PRESIDENT’S REPORT / EXECUTIVE SUMMARY January – December 2020
This has been a year of both disappointment and success. Disappointment because we were unable to meet
in person and success because we learned how to use Zoom.
Once we were able to meet, we got right to work. All the committees revised their Duties and Responsibilities
Document so that it more clearly reflects the work of the committees and work groups.
We had a developed conference focusing on retirement for August 2020. The author of Elderhood, Louise Ar-
onson and Fiona Ma, State Treasurer, confirmed to take part in the program. The conference center was
booked, and the expected audience was to be around 450. Due to the COVID19 Pandemic, the conference
was cancelled. We are hoping that we will be able to have our conference in 2021. Fortunately, all the partici-
pants are willing to be a part of the conference in 2021.
We had some member resignations but were happy to welcome new members to the council. We developed
a process to support new members who might be interested in running for office. I am happy to say we have
new members running for office and others who offered to run if we were unable to fill the slate. I think that
our process has been successful.
The Elder Abuse Prevention Work Group has a new workgroup chair. The workgroup is working with Adult
Protective Services to update its presentation, which it hopes to present via zoom.
I had a goal for this year to increase our diversity so that the council reflects those whom we serve. It is diffi-
cult as we are all sheltering in place, which limits our connections to organizations, churches etc. I have set up
an Ad Hoc committee that will work with the Membership Committee to brainstorm and see if we can come
up with some innovative solutions.
This is my last year of two terms as President. It has been a pleasure to work with such hard-working volun-
teers who are supporting the Elders of Contra Costa County. I look forward to working with our new council
President and concentrating my efforts on the Membership C ommittee to increase the diversity of the Coun-
cil.

PLANNING COMMITTEE REPORT January – December 2020
CURRENT PLANNING COMMITTEE ROSTER
Debbie Card
James Donnelly
Kevin Donovan (chair)
Susan Frederick
Arthur Kee
Ron Tervelt (co-chair)
Dennis Yee
The Committee received strong support from Employment and Human Services Department staff members
Glenda Pacha and Anthony Macias and former AAA program manager, Laura Cepoi.
ACTIVITIES
The COVID-19 virus and the shelter in place order materially influenced the Committee’s 2020 activities. As a
result, monthly in-person meetings were held from January through March. From April to June no meetings
were held with meetings resuming in July on a Zoom meeting basis. Generally meeting attendance was 100%
of the Committee’s members.
ACOMPLISHMENTS
For the first three months of 2020 the Committee’s focus was primarily on contractor reviews and initiating a
discussion on identifying under-served senior needs and how well seniors are supported on a regional basis.
Upon the resumption of monthly meetings on a Zoom basis in July, our July meeting provided County staff
with an in-depth review of the AAA’s 2020-2024 Four-Year Area Plan on Aging. In August, the focus returned
to reviewing senior needs and the services with a detailed discussion of the sourc es of funding (largely Federal
government Title III programs) and how these funds were awarded to the County’s various non -profit contrac-
tors. This analysis included the sizable one-time funding, $2,152,096, from the Federal government’s Families
First Coronavirus Response Act (FFCRA) and Coronavirus Aid, Relief, and Economic Security (CARES) Act and
the distribution of these funds. In the latter part of the year, the committee’s focus returned to determining
under-served seniors on both the services needed and regional coverage.
2021 WORK PLAN
Consistent with Committee activities in the later part of 2020, the 2021 work plan will focus on determining
senior needs and how well these needs are being met. Through reviewing prior surveys and plans, reaching
out to County agencies and staff who work with the senior community as well as municipal directors of senior
services throughout the County and discussing with our contractors what needs they see in the senior
community, the Committee intends to develop an understanding of unmet needs of older adults. With this
understanding, we would next work with our current contractors and potentially other service providers so
that the programs we support and the services they provide are closely aligned with the needs of the senior
community throughout the County.

2020 ACCOMPLISHMENTS
Due to COVID-19, the Housing Workgroup suspended meeting for a couple of months. Then we piv-
oted to meeting on Zoom to resume advocacy and information sharing about critical housing services,
as more people need help during these uncertain economic times.
Contra Costa County 2019 Annual Report
Advisory Council on Aging 6
Economic impacts of COVID-19 include housing insecurity brought on by loss of income from employ-
ment. The Workgroup invited Season of Sharing Program Manager to present information on emer-
gency funds to help renters in need. There was also productive discussion about softening eligibility
requirements.
Mitigating the spread of COVID-19 in homeless communities, particularly among the elderly and indi-
viduals with underlying medical conditions, was a major concern of the Workgroup. Community En-
gagement Specialist from Health, Housing, and Homeless Services spoke with the Workgroup about
Project Room Key, which houses the most vulnerable homeless individuals in motels to prevent the
spread of COVID-19.
The Workgroup received periodic reports from Contra Costa Senior Legal Services, updating the
changes in County Superior Court activism in supporting the Governor’s Executive Orders to suspend
evection of renters for failure to pay rent during the continuing COVID-19 Pandemic.
The Workgroup Chair and Co-Chair made a brief presentation to the Advisory Council at a Council
meeting to raise awareness of the housing shortages and homelessness among older adults in the
County.
The Workgroup will be engaging the representatives of the County’s Cities on the Council to use the
Housing White Paper and the Infographic the Workgroup developed to increase the awareness of City
Council members to homelessness among older adults.
With the recommendation by the Housing Workgroup, the full Advisory Council joined the Board of
Supervisors in recommending Measure X on the November Ballot.
The home sharing program, Home Match, became a permanent program funded by Covia. The pro-
gram now has a new Covia Project Director to manage the program in Contra Costa County. There
have been 15 matches this year.
Work on the Housing White Paper was disrupted by the pandemic
After receiving an overview of the status of the Concord Naval Weapons Center development by the
City of Concord, we learned that the design contractor withdrew from the project and work has
stopped.
2021 Work Plan
Work with City Representatives to encourage City Leaders to support and fund the Home Match Program
operated and funded by COVIA to expand throughout the County.
Begin work to create a Contra Costa Land Trust to acquire property within the County to create housing
that is truly affordable by the low-income County residents and keep that property affordable in
perpetuity.
Continue learning from other nonprofit organizations and government agencies that work directly or
indirectly in housing funding, construction, or assistance.
Complete Housing White Paper and use it with “No Place to Call Home” infographic to outreach to cities,
Board of Supervisors, service providers, and the public. Plan a convening to present the White Paper.
Members will incorporate our older adult housing inventory data from the Housing White Paper into the
overall County housing data.
Appoint a representative to Measure X Oversight Committee to represent the interest of older adults
and to assure that affordable housing needs are addressed.

sions, mortality rates and higher cost of care are consistent in malnourished patients. Many elder pa-
tients are unable to obtain adequate nutrition after discharge from the hospital due to a variety of rea-
sons, weakness, lack of transportation, lack of understanding of nutrition and insufficient funds are
some causes. We will be working with Caitlin Sly, ED, of Meals on Wheels Diablo Region to see if we
can set up a” temporary eligibility” for newly discharged patients.

2020: Adjusting to the Covid-19 Pandemic
This year, the ACOA Technology Work Group’s agenda and work were driven by the Covid -19 pan-
demic. Because virtually all meetings and communications went remote/online, the importance of
computer/mobile technology literacy for older adults, including for ACOA members, became abun-
dantly clear. To follow public health guidelines and because of social distancing mandates and the
need to reduce [physical] social contact, mobile/computer technologies represent the best means for
people to stay engaged and connected within the community. In 2020 and in light of the pandemic,
The Technology Work Group has focused on ways to better connect (and inform) older adults via these
technologies.

Working with EHSD’s Community/Media Relations Manager Director, Tish Gallegos, EHSD Web Administrator,
Kevin Balderston, and Anthony Macias, the Tech Work Group has been making changes to the county/ACOA
Web site as well as identifying and developing new content relevant to older adults within the county. The
workgroup began identifying and removing redundant, outdated, and abandoned links and content and contin-
ues with the addition of new content and more easily navigated pages. The new content includes a guide to
online resources available through all of the various senior centers across the county.
2021 Technology Work Group Goals
The Tech Work Group expects to spend part of 2021 continuing its work on the ACOA web site with
ongoing recommendations/changes, and new and updated content.
In 2021, the Technology Work Group will work to connect county senior centers and all of their online
resources and classes so that older adults can take advantage of any of these offerings remotely, re-
gardless of where the older adult resides.

RECOMMENDATION(S):
RECEIVE recommendation from Sustainability Commission regarding community group suggestions for
planning for a just transition to an economy that is less dependent on fossil fuels and REFER the matter to
the Sustainability Committee.
FISCAL IMPACT:
No fiscal impact. Informational report only.
BACKGROUND:
On September 22, 2020, the Board of Supervisors (Board) adopted a Climate Emergency Resolution that,
among other things, resolves that the Board of Supervisors and the County Sustainability Commission seek
input from the community, workers, and business/industry to help the County anticipate and plan for an
economy that is less dependent on fossil fuels, helps plan for a “Just Transition” away from a fossil-fuel
dependent economy, and considers how the County’s recovery from the COVID-19 pandemic can
incorporate the County’s climate goals.
On November 20, 2020, the Board received a letter from 60 organizations that commends the Board for the
Climate Emergency Resolution and urges the Board to: (1) secure commitments from Marathon and
Phillips 66 to cover direct and indirect costs associated with downsizing and ultimate decommissioning of

their refineries in Contra Costa County, and to pay their fair share of the costs for just transitions for
workers and communities; (2) pass an ordinance or resolution that aims to establish financial
accountability requirements for refineries and other fossil fuel infrastructure; and (3) strongly advocate
for state action supporting just transitions for fossil fuel workers and communities, as well as full site
cleanups to unrestricted use. The letter is attached.
At its December 14, 2020, meeting the Sustainability Commission reviewed the November 20 letter.
The Sustainability Commission believes that the letter raises significant issues that should be
considered. The Sustainability Commission recommends that the Board refer the letter to the
Sustainability Committee for investigation and report back to the Board.
CONSEQUENCE OF NEGATIVE ACTION:
Failure to refer the letter to the Sustainability Committee or otherwise respond to the letter would result
in the County missing an opportunity to engage with the community on Just Transition issues.

Contra Costa County Board of Supervisors
651 Pine Street, Room 107
Martinez, CA 94553
Dear Chair Anderson, Vice-Chair Burgis, and Supervisors Gioia, Mitchoff, and Glover,
The undersigned organizations applaud your recent Declaration of a Climate Emergency in Contra Costa
County, which underlines the need to "plan for a 'Just Transition' away from a fossil-fuel dependent
economy." In furtherance of this goal, we seek your immediate action to ensure just transitions for
workers and communities threatened with sudden abandonment by refineries located in the County. We
believe climate protection must go hand in hand with environmental and economic justice. All of this is
now at risk in the Contra Costa County oil belt.
As you know, Marathon abruptly announced in August the immediate permanent end to crude processing
at its Martinez refinery. Phillips 66 followed suit with notice of the impending partial closure of its San
Francisco Refinery Complex facilities in Rodeo, Franklin Canyon, and Arroyo Grande. Both companies
proposed switching to significantly downsized production of non-petroleum fuels, which will involve
fallowing of large portions of the refineries. Neither announcement identified any explicit commitment to
full cleanups of the contaminated industrial sites. Of even more immediate concern, neither company
committed to support the wages, health care, or pensions of all whose jobs these facility closures threaten.
These refinery downsizings—which may well be a harbinger of additional closures in the future—will
jeopardize not just the livelihoods of the refinery employees, but those of thousands of families in the
surrounding communities whose jobs are indirectly dependent upon the existence of the refineries.
Refinery downsizing and shutdown also threaten a significant portion of the tax base upon which
community government and essential services depend. Ultimately at risk are future prospects for
environmentally healthy and economically sustainable development in communities hosting the
decommissioned plant sites.
Accordingly, we strongly urge you to take three immediate actions:
First, we urge you to use your local land use authority to secure commitments from Marathon and Phillips
66 to cover direct and indirect costs associated with downsizing and ultimate decommissioning; and to
pay their fair share of the cost for just transitions for workers and communities. At this critical juncture,
when the companies are submitting permit applications seeking your approval of unprecedented land use
changes in your jurisdiction, you should establish permit conditions setting stringent cleanup standards,
requiring financial accountability for meeting those standards, and assessing fees to fund a just transition.
Specifically, permit conditions should require that decommissioned refinery sites be remediated to a level
allowing unrestricted use. Your decisive action in this regard would echo in concept the requirement
under California state law (Public Resources Code §§ 3204–5) that owners of oil wells and other fossil
fuel facilities post bonds or otherwise establish financial accountability up front to cover costs of
decommissioning and remediation. The County should take like steps to ensure that Marathon and
Phillips 66 demonstrate up-front accountability for closure-related costs.
Second, to prepare for the anticipated rising tide of future decommissioning, we urge you to pass an
ordinance or resolution similar to those passed in King County 1 (Seattle) and Multnomah County 2
(Portland) that aim to establish financial accountability requirements for refineries and other fossil fuel
infrastructure as part of a holistic risk management and just transition strategy. The new plans by
Marathon and Phillips 66 to transition from oil to biofuels production highlight the financial shakiness of
California's fading oil industry, and the risk that further downsizing of oil refining capacity—which will
ultimately be essential in any case for a livable climate—may leave the County and its taxpayers holding
the bag for decommissioning-related costs and economic losses.
Third, we urge you to strongly advocate for state action supporting just transitions for fossil fuel workers
and communities, as well as full site cleanups to unrestricted use. Governor Newsom's Executive Order
N-79-20 provides for your consultation on state oil facility transition policy. Your Climate Emergency
Declaration, Resolution 2020/256, calls for "urgent action by all levels of government" to address our
climate emergency, while committing the County to develop just transition strategies locally. And as
shown by the County's landmark Industrial Safety Ordinance, upon which statewide refinery process
safety management policies are now largely modeled, your leadership is important.
The large oil companies who have for so long made their profits in our communities ought to be the ones
to pay the steep cost associated with their departure. All levels of government should consider taking
action akin to the State of Colorado’s Draft Just Transition Plan 3 to assist dislocated coal workers and
affected communities. California also reached a collaborative agreement 4 with workers, PG&E and the
community for the safe and responsible closure of the Diablo Canyon Nuclear Plant. Governments around
the world provide additional examples of just transition strategies, having supplemented unemployment
or paid full salaries to workers laid off due to COVID, and, in some cases, supported COVID-idled
workers at full salary.
We look forward to your response to this request for worker and community protection and stand ready to
further support immediate action to address these urgent environmental and economic needs.
Sincerely,

RECOMMENDATION(S):
APPROVE and AUTHORIZE the Auditor-Controller, or designee, to pay $15,812 to Vasanta Venkat Giri,
M.D., an individual, for providing telepsychiatry services for children in central Contra Costa County, for
the period December 1, 2020 through December 31, 2020.
FISCAL IMPACT:
Approval of this payment will result in expenditures of up to $15,812 and will be funded by 50% Federal
Medi-Cal and 50% Mental Health Realignment.
BACKGROUND:
On November 17, 2019, the Board of Supervisors approved Contract #74-438-13, with Vasanta Venkat
Giri, M.D., for the provision of telepsychiatry services, including diagnosing, counseling, evaluating and
medical and therapeutic treatment to children, for the period from January 1, 2020 through December 31,

Due to staff attrition gaps and retirements, contractor agreed to temporarily increase hours to prevent breaks
in telepsychiatry services for children and adolescents in central county; however, the contract was not
amended to reflect agreed upon services increase while in effect.

Costa
County
Subject:Payment for Services Provided by Vasanta Venkat Giri, M.D.
BACKGROUND: (CONT'D)
Therefore, the County has determined that Vasanta Venkat Giri, M.D. is entitled to payment for the
reasonable value of their services under the equitable relief theory of quantum meruit. That theory
provides that where a person has been asked to provide services without a valid contract, and the
provider does so to the benefit of the recipient, the provider is entitled to recover the reasonable value of
those services.
Expected program outcomes include an increase in positive social and emotional development as
measured by the Child and Adolescent Functional Assessment Scale (CAFAS).
CONSEQUENCE OF NEGATIVE ACTION:
If this contract is not approved, the contractor will not get paid for telepsychiatry services already
rendered.
CHILDREN'S IMPACT STATEMENT:
This program supports the following Board of Supervisors’ community outcomes: (1) Children Ready
for and Succeeding in School; (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.
ATTACHMENTS
RECOMMENDATION(S):
DECLARE as surplus and AUTHORIZE the Purchasing Agent, or designee, to dispose of fully depreciated
vehicles and equipment no longer needed for public use, as recommended by the Public Works Director,
Countywide.
FISCAL IMPACT:
No fiscal impact.
BACKGROUND:
Section 1108-2.212 of the County Ordinance Code authorizes the Purchasing Agent to dispose of any
personal property belonging to Contra Costa County and found by the Board of Supervisors not to be
required for public use. The property for disposal is either obsolete, worn out, beyond economical repair, or
damaged beyond repair.
CONSEQUENCE OF NEGATIVE ACTION:
Public Works would not be able to dispose of surplus vehicles and equipment.

has shown significant reduction in mortality and morbidity when stroke patients are identified in the field
and transported, with advance notification, to a hospital staffed and equipped to provide rapid stoke care. A
nationally-recognized goal is to provide primary stroke center intervention within three to four and one half
hours of onset of symptoms. Identification of a suspected stroke patient begins in the field and requires
rapid identification and subsequent triage to a primary stroke center. All ambulance and Fire first responder
paramedics in the County have been trained in the rapid recognition of stroke patients using the Cincinnati
Stroke Scale.
On December 12, 2017, the Board of Supervisors approved Contract #23-493-2 with John Muir Health Inc.
(dba John Muir Medical Center-Walnut Creek Campus), to act as a designated PSC to assist patients who
have been assessed by ambulance personnel with a suspected stroke, for the period from January 1, 2018
through December 31, 2020.
Approval of Contract #23-493-3 will allow John Muir Medical Center – Walnut Creek Campus to continue
as a designated PSC that is prepared to respond with emergency department teams in consultation with
neurologists, to promptly intervene when notified of the pending arrival of a stroke patient, through
December 31, 2023. This contract includes mutual indemnification to hold harmless both parties for any
claims arising out of the performance of this contract.
CONSEQUENCE OF NEGATIVE ACTION:
If this contract is not approved, designation of this facility as a Primary Stroke Center will impede the
implementation of a coordinated stroke system in Contra Costa County.

Subject:Approval of Contract #23-497-4 with Kaiser Foundation Hospitals (dba Kaiser Permanente – Richmond)
BACKGROUND: (CONT'D)
has shown significant reduction in mortality and morbidity when stroke patients are identified in the field
and transported, with advance notification, to a hospital staffed and equipped to provide rapid stoke care. A
nationally-recognized goal is to provide primary stroke center intervention within three to four and one half
hours of onset of symptoms. Identification of a suspected stroke patient begins in the field and requires
rapid identification and subsequent triage to a primary stroke center. All ambulance and fire first responder
paramedics in the county have been trained in the rapid recognition of stroke patients using the Cincinnati
Stroke Scale.
On December 5, 2017, the Board of Supervisors approved Contract #23-497-2 with Kaiser Foundation
Hospitals (dba Kaiser Permanente-Richmond), to act as a designated center to assist patients who have been
assessed by ambulance personnel with a suspected stroke, for the period from January 1, 2018 through
December 31, 2020. On April 17, 2018, the Board of Supervisors approved Amendment Agreement
#23-497-3 to include Contractor’s Business Associate Agreement (BAA) with no change in the term of
January 1, 2018 through December 31, 2020.
Approval of Contract #23-497-4 will allow Kaiser Permanente – Richmond to continue to act as a Primary
Stroke Center through December 31, 2023. This contract includes mutual indemnification to hold harmless
both parties for any claims arising out of the performance of this contract.
CONSEQUENCE OF NEGATIVE ACTION:
If this contract is not approved, designation of this facility as a Primary Stroke Center will impede the
implementation of a coordinated stroke system in Contra Costa County.
RECOMMENDATION(S):
APPROVE and AUTHORIZE the Health Services Director, or designee, to execute on behalf of the
County Contract #23-516-3 with San Ramon Regional Medical Center, LLC, a Limited Liability Company,
including mutual indemnification, to act as a designated primary stroke center to assist patients who have
been assessed by ambulance personnel as suffering from a suspected stroke, for the period from January 1,
2021 through December 31, 2023.
FISCAL IMPACT:
This contract is a nonfinancial agreement. Emergency Medical Services (EMS), staff costs to be covered
under County Service Area EM-1 and charges to participating hospitals.
BACKGROUND:
In collaboration with hospitals, fire first-responders and emergency ambulance services, Contra Costa
Emergency Medical Care Committee, Contra Costa Stroke Advisory Committee, and Contra Costa EMS
have been working towards implementation of a program that will provide quicker access to definitive care
for patients with symptoms of acute stroke. Strokes occur when blood flow to the brain has been disrupted
due to a blockage in a vessel (ischemic stroke) or bleeding in the brain (hemorrhagic stroke). Research has
shown significant reduction in mortality and morbidity when stroke patients are identified in the field and
transported, with advance notification, to a hospital staffed and equipped to provide rapid stoke

RECOMMENDATIONS
Acting as the Governing Board of the Contra Costa County Housing Authority, APPROVE and
AUTHORIZE the Housing Authority of the County of Contra Costa’s (HACCC) Executive Director, or his
designee, to execute a contract with McCandless and Associates Architects (McCandless) to provide
architectural and engineering services for the Alhambra Terrace Public Housing Modernization Project in
Martinez, CA in a total amount not to exceed $191,500 for January 19, 2021, through January 1, 2022.
BACKGROUND
Alhambra Terrace (APN 376-010-010) is a 50-unit public housing development that sits on 19.65 acres. It
comprises 14 one-bedroom units (544 square feet), 24 two-bedroom units (684 square feet), and 12
three-bedroom units (891 square feet). The development also has walkways, parking/driveways, and rear
patios. Alhambra Terrace has not received comprehensive modernization since 1990. It needs significant
repairs in order to continue serving public housing residents. These repairs include electrical system
upgrades, foundation repairs, new window installation, weatherization improvements, and updated ADA
modifications.
Housing Authorities are allowed to enter into intergovernmental purchasing agreements without
competitive procurement to secure certain services (piggyback). Intergovernmental purchasing agreements
foster greater economy and efficiency. HACCC staff found three architectural/engineering firms that had

2020 Climate Action Plan Progress Report
Introduction
The 2020 Climate Action Plan (CAP) progress report provides information on the actions Contra Costa
County has taken in the past year to advance the goals of the County’s 2015 Climate Action Plan. Due to
the events that have transpired over the course of 2020, the data that is enclosed in this report reflects
the unusual year.
Information on County operations is included in the attached progress report from the County’s Public
Works Department.

The CAP calls for continued expansion of single-family and multi-family participation in established
energy efficiency rebate programs to retrofit 3,000 single-family and 700 multi-family homes. In 2019
and 2020, under the BayREN Home+ and Multifamily programs, 57 single-family and 14 multi-family
units were retrofitted.
All estimated emission reductions are dependent on multiple data sets from various energy efficiency
programs, such as the Bay Area Regional Energy Network (BayREN) program, County Weatherization
program, PG&E Commercial Business program, and Property Assessed Clean Energy (PACE) projects.
County staff is working with PG&E and the California Public Utilities Commission (CPUC) to obtain
outstanding data for Commercial customers that is not yet available. There are also additional PACE
projects for which data is still being collected. Therefore, GHG emissions reductions (expected percent
to be completed by 2020) may be higher than is estimated in this report.
For Measure EE 1, there was a significant drop in energy efficiency home retrofits completed for
calendar year 2020, likely due to COVID-19. Actual expected GHG reductions under Measure EE 3 are
much higher than originally expected/allocated under the current CAP, due to extensive community
outreach conducted by County staff to educate residents on the benefits of energy conservation.
A geographic breakdown of where projects qualifying for energy efficiency rebate programs were
carried out in the unincorporated County is provided below. The data on the single-family energy
efficiency retrofits completed in unincorporated Contra Costa County for 2020 was last updated on
November 4, 2020.

Measure EE 4: Urban Forestry and Paving and Roofing Materials
The CAP sets a goal to plant 500 new shade trees by 2018. The exact number of trees planted and
removed is not currently tracked by the County, so it is not possible to conclude if this measure has been
met. However, actions being developed this year by County staff will make it easier to maintain the
number of trees in the County.
The County Off-Street Parking Ordinance (Chapter 82-16) contains provisions for parking lots of a certain
size to provide landscaping and shade trees. The County’s Tree Ordinance is in the process of being
updated where an in-lieu tree planting fee program will be considered. County staff is exploring other
models that allow in-lieu fees to be paid when replanting is infeasible. Said fees would be used to plant
trees in other areas of the County. Factors for determining how plantings from in-lieu fees are
designated are also being developed.
The CAP aimed to have 1,790 existing homes and 9 existing businesses complete cool roof retrofits by
2018. From January 1, 2020 to November 30, 2020, 600 homes and 15 businesses have completed cool

Renewable Energy
Measure RE 1: Alternative Energy Installations
The CAP sets a goal of 50 new homes, 2,500 existing homes, 10 new businesses, and 60 existing
businesses with solar arrays by 2020. This target has been far exceeded with over 5,000 residential PV
permits issued in the past three years alone. From January 1, 2020 to November 30, 2020, 966
residences and 4 businesses in the unincorporated County installed solar PV.
In 2015, the County implemented the online permitting tool. Because of COVID-19, the majority
of applicants this year took advantage of this service with 83% of permits being issued online.
Year Total # Residential PV Permits # Residential PV E-Permits
2018 1482 414
2019 1759 323
2020 1829 1525
Measure RE 2: Alternative Energy Facilities
The CAP sets a goal to install 1 MW of solar on public facilities in the unincorporated area by 2018. As
noted in past CAP progress reports, this target has long been surpassed. The County continues to
increase its solar photovoltaic (PV) capacity with installation at various sites around the county.
Currently, the County has 22 PV systems that have a total capacity of 4.5 MW and produce 6.5 million
kilowatt-hours per year (6,500,000 kWh/year). In 2019, Contra Costa County signed a Power Purchase
Agreement for the installation of an additional nine solar PV systems; three of these solar PV systems
include energy storage. The first phase of this new Distributed Energy Resources project will be
completed by the end of 2020 and the second phase by mid-year 2021. When complete, the County will
have added that will produce an additional 6,000,000 kWh/year. Over the 25-year contractual period
the County is estimated to save $16,000,000.
Measure RE 3: Alternative Energy Financing
Measure RE 3 is supportive and does not have a quantitative target. The CAP identifies community
choice aggregation as a strategy for increasing the amount of renewable energy consumed in the
County.
Unincorporated Contra Costa has reduced a total of 3,554 MTCO2e through its participation with MCE
since 2018. Unincorporated County has an 89.1% participation rate with a Deep Green participation rate
of 1.3% as of October 1, 2020.

7
Municipal Accounts Opted Up to Deep Green (As of October 1, 2020)
The CAP also calls for improving participation in programs that help financial investments in renewable
energy and energy storage systems which includes programs such as Property Assessed Clean Energy
(PACE) and BayREN. PACE in particular allows property owners to voluntarily join an assessment district
and borrow money for the purpose of making energy or water efficiency improvements to their project.
In 2019, the Sustainability Commission suggested the County identify financing mechanisms that would
be more accessible to low- and medium-income homeowners. This fall staff submitted a proposal to the
UC Berkeley Goldman School of Public Policy to perform this research. Starting in January, this topic will
be the capstone project for a Goldman School student, to be completed by May 2021.
Land Use and Transportation
Measure LUT 1: Mobility and Land Uses
The CAP calls for 33,630 countywide bike trips per weekday on average by 2020. This is not a metric that
staff has explicitly tracked due to the cost of data collection and the inherent limitations of this data
across the unincorporated County. The following studies and programs directed by County staff
facilitate easier access to transportation alternatives and improved safety conditions, which both
encourage non-vehicular mobility.
8
Bike and Pedestrian Access
In June 2020, the Board of Supervisors accepted the Iron Horse Corridor Active Transportation Study,
which identifies improvements throughout the 22-mile Corridor for increasing safety, access, and the
trail user experience. The County collaborated with all Corridor cities, the Contra Costa Transportation
Authority, East Bay Park District and local communities and trail users to develop the Study.
County staff is currently developing the Marsh Creek Corridor Multi-Use Trail Feasibility Study which
explores the concept of a new multi-use trail within the 12+ mile corridor from Clayton to the Round
Valley Regional Preserve (near Brentwood). The purpose of the path would be to provide a safe, useful
and enjoyable transportation corridor for various forms of non-motorized travel, including pedestrian,
equestrian and bicycle users (including serious bicycle enthusiasts).
Vision Zero
The County’ Vision Zero Program, which seeks to reduce fatalities and significant injuries on
unincorporated roadways is currently in development. The Program will result in engineering, education
and enforcement strategies that will be implemented to help reduce roadway incidents and increase
user safety.
Active Transportation Plan
The Contra Costa County Active Transportation Action Plan (“ATP”) will create a detailed inventory of
the County’s roadways and identify opportunities to build active transportation facilities with an
emphasis on projects that can be installed quickly through re-striping and repaving. Staff will create a
three-tiered priority list of projects based on ease of implementation, location in disadvantaged
communities, and overlap with a travel demand model. Staff will conduct extensive public outreach in
each of the 13 unincorporated communities and develop an interactive web map tool for ongoing
outreach and evaluation.
With more detailed data on roadway opportunities and constraints, staff can expand upon CCTA’s 2018
Countywide Bicycle and Pedestrian Plan and support concurrent planning efforts such as the County’s
Vision Zero program, which will in turn support regional and state planning goals. The County was
awarded a $380,000 Caltrans Sustainable Communities Grant to develop the ATP.
Measure LUT 2: Alternative-Fuel Infrastructure
The CAP targets specific outcomes regarding electric vehicle (EV) charging station use, including 14,220
vehicle miles traveled (VMT) per EV by 2020.
MCE has contributed to the network of EV charging stations distributed throughout the county through
its rebate program. Through this rebate program, as of October 4, 2020, MCE has installed 317 charging
stations within the county.
9
The number of EV charging stations around the county has grown tremendously thanks to the Contra
Costa Transportation Authority’s (CCTA) work on the Electric Vehicle Readiness Blueprint completed in
July 2019 and the Board of Supervisors’ adoption of a streamlined permitting process for electric vehicle
chargers on December 17, 2019 (Ordinance No. 2019-39). These two efforts contributed to the 1,325
charging stations currently distributed throughout the county.
Measure LUT 4: Vehicle Miles Traveled Reduction
This measure establishes targets for BART and bus trips taken by residents of the unincorporated
County, and decreases in vehicle miles travelled in high occupancy vehicle lanes to be met by 2035. For
reasons similar to bike trip data, this is not something staff tracks. Such an effort would require
significant coordination with BART, bus operators, and other agencies to measure.
In June 2020, the Board of Supervisors adopted new guidelines for evaluating transportation impacts
under the California Environmental Quality Act (CEQA). Specifically, the new guidelines implemented
Senate Bill (SB) 743 which shifted the transportation analysis metric for measuring environmental
impacts from congestion and delay-based metrics (e.g. Level of Service or LOS) to Vehicle Miles Traveled
(VMT). The guidelines introduced new thresholds of significance for land use and transportation
projects. Transportation Demand Management (TDM) strategies are typically required mitigation where
necessary. County staff is also working with the Contra Costa Transportation Authority on development
of a regional VMT mitigation program.
Solid Waste
Measure W 1: Waste Reduction and Recycling
Since 2007, the State measures jurisdictional waste reduction based on the amount disposed using a
pounds of disposal Per Person per Day (PPD) metric. In 2019, the unincorporated County area disposal
was 2.46 PPD, which is a reduction of 0.74 PPD from the 2007 baseline of 3.2 PPD, equivalent to an
overall diversion rate of 77%. The CAP set a goal to achieve a local waste diversion rate of 75% and
reduce tons of waste by 90,850, so the goal was achieved.
Water Conservation
Measure WE 1: Water Conservation
Contra Costa County is served by a number of water purveyors. The majority of residents receive service
from the East Bay Municipal Utility District (EBMUD), which serves the southern and western areas, and
the Contra Costa Water District, which serves central and eastern areas.
The CAP aims to reduce potable water use by 20% from 2013 water use by 2020. The East Bay Municipal
Utility District has provided high-level data on water use in the unincorporated County. As of 2019,
unincorporated county’s water use was 3,681,827 CCF 4 for non-residential use and 5,394,742 CCF for
residential use. Total potable water use for the county was 9,076,569 CCF, or a 7.86% increase in water
4 Each CCF is 748 gallons of water
10
consumption from 2015 levels. In future reports, staff will try to include more information on the
amount of rainfall in the year being measured, at the suggestion of the Sustainability Commission.

Sustai nability Efforts at Public Works
Summary Report
(As of December 2020)
Introduction
The Public Works Department is responsible for several programs that have been identified as
opportunities for more sustainable operations to help reduce our impact on the environment. The
Department is responsible for programs that deliver services directly to the public, such as the Road
Program, Flood Control Program, Airports, and Parks and Recreation. The Department is also
responsible for programs that deliver services to other County Departments, such as County Buildings,
Fleet Services, Recycle and Surplus (Materials Management), Purchasing, and Print & Mail. Below is a
summary of some efforts that have been accomplished, are in process, or are planned to address the
County’s Climate Action Plan.
Road Program
Traffic Signals - All 88 unincorporated County Traffic Control Signals and 27 warning flashers have
been converted to LEDs resulting in energy savings. We are exploring using fuel cell technology for
power backup during Public Safety Power Shutdowns (PSPS) and other power outages at critical
intersections. We currently have one signal that has a diesel generator back up and some signals that
have battery backup. The battery backup system only lasts a couple of hours and is not sufficient for an
average PSPS event. The diesel system can last 24 hours and then needs to be refueled. The diesel
system also requires more on-going maintenance versus the fuel cell technology and emits diesel
emissions into the environment. The fuel cell technology will provide 6-9 days of uninterrupted power
before needing to refuel. The only byproduct is heat and water as long as we use hydrogen fuel, making
it better for the environment.
CAP Reference:
1.1 Increase the number of carbon neutral building in Contra Costa County – Energy Efficiency and weatherization programs;
1.2 Replace fossil fuel electricity with renewable electricity
3
Street Lights – All county owned street lights have been retrofitted with LED bulbs. PG&E street lights
in unincorporated Contra Costa County have been replaced with LED bulbs. The retrofit has reduced
energy consumption.
CAP Reference:
1.1 Increase the number of carbon neutral building in Contra Costa County – Energy Efficiency and weatherization programs
Street Tree Program - We currently don’t have an official street tree program. We have worked with
specific community members wishing to place trees in the road right-of-way in areas such as Byron and
Tara Hills. There are various Landscape Districts that fund the maintenance of landscaping, including
trees, either in the road right-of-way or adjacent to the road. There are currently no plans to develop
and implement a Street Tree Program for unincorporated County roads. Special Districts has several
parks and Landscape Zones that have trees. To help manage the trees, Special District staff is
implementing a tree inventory program for parks.
CAP Reference: 2.2 Sequester carbon in natural lands in CCC. Track number of native trees planted by County and public and
private partners
Complete Streets – The Board of Supervisors adopted a Complete Streets policy and the Public Works
Department has been implementing this policy where it is realistic, beneficial, and resources are
available. Complete Streets facilitate opportunities for various modes of travel, such as pedestrian,
bicycles, transit, and vehicles, within the public road right-of-way. The Public Works Department has
numerous completed, on-going, and planned projects that implement the various components of
complete streets. The projects are listed below.
In 2020, we added only 0.10 miles of bike lanes and 0.10 miles of sidewalk. Although this may seem
insignificant, these additions were gap closures that now create a longer uninterrupted bike or
pedestrian facility. Although we are adding to our inventory of sidewalks and bike lanes, we are lacking
good metrics and goals to show our progress on achieving the goals of the Board of Supervisors
Complete Streets policy. To address this shortfall, we are developing metrics to show our progress for
curb ramps, sidewalks, and bike lanes. We plan to develop GIS layers that show sidewalks, bike lanes,
and ADA ramps to help keep inventory of our existing and newly constructed facilities. We need to
show which streets have all modes of travel or two modes of travel. We may color code roads with Red
(Vehicles only), Yellow (Vehicles, Bike Lanes), Orange (Vehicles, Sidewalk), and Green (Vehicles,
Sidewalks, Bike Lanes). We may want to couple this information with the “stress level” information from
CCTA. The inventory of sidewalks and bike lanes is currently being worked on by our Transportation
Engineering Division. Transportation Engineering has contracted with a company through CCTA to map
pedestrian and bicycle facilities into GIS.
To prioritize funding for the most likely routes to be used by pedestrian and bicyclists, we are looking to
develop a Local Access Score (http://localaccess.mapc.org/) for roads that will prioritize the
development of certain roads into complete streets. We feel that by addressing the high target routes,
we will see the greatest decline in Vehicle Miles Traveled. If we develop the Local Access Score, a metric
to measure progress in implementing complete streets might be the percentage of those roads with a
High Local Access Score that have been improved to allow for multi-modal travel. Overall, the goal is to
reduce Vehicle Miles Traveled. The Local Access Score metric would be the lead measure and the
Vehicle Miles Traveled metric would be the lag measure.

CAP Reference: 5.1 – Reduce vehicle miles traveled in Contra Costa County by increasing number of people who bike, walk, and
take public transit.
Increase multi-modal access to parks and open space – As mentioned in the Complete Streets
section above, we are considering developing a Local Access Score for our road network. The process of
developing the score requires input of destinations. We would make sure that parks and open spaces
are included in the model when calculating the Local Access Score. This will help us prioritize which
facilities would most likely be used and which facilities we need to improve. The following links provide
additional detail on how the State of Massachusetts implemented a statewide Local Access Score to help
prioritize funding for complete street components. All jurisdictions were included; therefore, an equal
evaluation method was in place to target the high priority areas.

http://localaccess.mapc.org/assets/pdfs/LocalAccess_Technical_Report.pdf
CAP Reference: 6.3 – Increase access of County residents to parks and open space.
Vision Zero - The idea is that if we have safer streets, then more people will use bikes and walk or
other non-vehicle modes to travel. The program is currently underway with the High Incident Network
identified. We are working on finalizing the countermeasures to address the HIN roads. Metrics for this
is overall collisions, Major Injury and Fatal collisions, bike collisions, and pedestrian collisions. There was
a suggestion of the low-stress designation. This metric may be incorporated into the complete streets
effort and/or the Vision Zero effort.

CAP Reference: 5.1 – Reduce vehicle miles traveled in Contra Costa County by increasing number of people who bike, walk, and
take public transit.
Green Infrastructure – The County is a permittee under the San Francisco Bay Region Municipal
Regional Stormwater NPDES Permit (MRP). All of our new projects comply with the requirements as set
forth in the MRP. For example, we just completed a multi-million dollar safety project on Kirker Pass
Road that incorporated two large bio-retention facilities to filter and slow the flow of rainwater from the
impervious pavement added by the project. The facilities were oversized to go above the required
permit requirements. In addition to Kirker Pass Road, we have completed the Rodeo Pedestrian
Improvements Project that incorporated an oversized bio-retention facility to treat and slow rainwater
runoff in the area. The project also included landscaping.
8
As part of our efforts to incorporate greener infrastructure into our projects, we have tested pervious
concrete on a sidewalk project in Bay Point. We will evaluate how it performs and will need to direct
staff on whether to continue to use this method of water treatment and slowing. Another possible
application of pervious pavement would be in parking lanes along roadways.
The County was required to put together a Green Infrastructure Plan. We will need to review the plan
and educate staff on the requirements of the plan. We have discussed this issue with Transportation
Engineering on allocating a set amount of budget towards implementation of the Green Infrastructure
Plan. We are trying to incorporate as many green components into our road projects as required by the
Clean Water Permit.
9
One area of concern is that some green infrastructure, such as bio-swales, require vegetation. The
vegetation will increase water usage to keep the plants alive. One of the Climate Action Plan goals is to
reduce water usage which conflicts with adding more landscaping that requires irrigation. We will need
to research what types of low-irrigation landscaping we could use to meet clean water filtration
specifications while keeping operations and maintenance costs down.
The MRP requires 100% reduction of trash flowing from the municipal separate storm sewer system to
creeks and the San Francisco Bay by 2022. As part of the County’s Trash Reduction Program, the County
has installed full trash capture devices in individual storm drain inlets to capture trash and debris carried
by rain water before it flows to creeks and the Bay. In the past 2 years, Contra Costa County has
installed 177 trash capture devices that collect rain water from 518 acres.
In addition, Contra Costa County entered into a Cooperative Implementation Agreement (CIA) with
Caltrans in June 2020 to install large full trash capture devices in a section of unincorporated San
Pablo. This project will be designed and constructed over the next several years. The trash capture
devices will collect trash flowing through the storm sewer system from both Caltrans Interstate 80 and
the County right-of-way.
CAP Reference: 2.2 Sequester carbon in natural lands in CCC. Install Green Infrastructure
Cool Pavements – The County currently does not have a Cool Pavement Program. We have looked
into the topic and have found some concerns that need to be addressed prior to recommending such a
program.
The City of Los Angeles has a cool pavement program. Studies by UCLA are showing that the benefit of
white pavement may not be all that beneficial. Although the surface may be cooler, the air
temperatures in the vicinity of the road may have increased. We would like to continue to monitor cool
pavements performance before we implement this program since it will be an additional cost to
implement and may not necessarily yield desirable outcomes.
https://www.bloomberg.com/news/articles/2019-10-03/reflective-pavement-may-be-less-cool-than-it-
seems
10
Public Works inquired to the City and County Pavement Improvement Center (John Harvey) asking for
his expertise on cool pavements and specifically the use of hydrated lime to improve the albedo of
asphalt concrete and reduce heat island effects. Mr. Harvey confirmed that cool pavements may actually
increase the air temperature in the area and that more studies need to happen. The benefits of cool
pavements may also be location-specific.
The Public Works Department, through its Engineering Services Division, will need to look at Sustainable
standards for roads to make sure the development community is constructing sustainable infrastructure
that can be maintained.
CAP Reference: 2.3 Address impacts of heat islands
Irrigation/Landscaping – The Public Works Department is working on creative solutions to reduce
water usage and meet community expectations for landscaping. We have completed two projects that
installed artificial turf that allows stormwater to percolate through to recharge groundwater, while
reducing water use for irrigation and meeting community desires for pleasant landscaping. The
following pictures are examples of projects completed in Bay Point and Pacheco. The project in Pacheco
(picture on the right) was installed approximately 10 years ago and has weathered well. The Pacheco
project was done as a pilot project to determine how the installation would do through time. Aside
from someone trying to pull up the turf the first week it was installed, the island still looks great.
11
CAP Reference: 4.1 – Reduce water use in unincorporated County and in County facilities.
Cold-in-Place Recycling – The Public Works Department is using cold-in-place recycling as a method
to rehabilitate unincorporated County Roads. Cold-in-place recycling grinds up the existing roadway,
adds rejuvenating oil, and is placed back down on the roadway. This layer is usually capped with a thin
layer of new asphalt concrete. This technique is less expensive and reduces the need for natural
resources (rock) and reduces the overall truck trips during construction. We have completed three large
projects using cold-in-place recycling: Buchanan Field Airport Taxiway, Kirker Pass Road Rehabilitation,
and Balfour Road (approximately a three mile stretch of road).
County Buildings
(Facilities/Capital Projects/Custodial Services/Materials Management)
MCE Deep Green Program – The County participates in MCE’s renewable electricity program. The
Board of Supervisors approved moving to MCE’s Deep Green Program starting in FY 21/22.
Distributed Energy Resources Plan - Contra Costa County is a pioneer and leader in the distributed
energy resource arena having started in nearly two decades ago with two rooftop solar energy
photovoltaic systems on two of its most important buildings. Since then the County has added 20 more
12
ground-mounted, rooftop and parking lot canopy solar energy systems. These PV systems have a total
capacity of 4.5 MW and produce 6.5 million kilowatt-hours per year (6,500,000 kWh/year).
Looking forward, in 2019 Contra Costa County signed a
Power Purchase Agreement for the installation of an
additional nine solar PV systems, three of which include
energy storage. The first phase of this new DER project
will be completed by the end of 2020 and the second
phase by mid-year 2021. When complete, the County will
have added an additional 6,000,000 kWh per year of solar
production potential. Over the 25-year contractual
period the County is estimated to save $16,000,000.
The County’s latest two major construction projects resulted in all-electric solar powered buildings that
include 30 new Level 2 electric vehicle chargers. Both buildings were certified LEED Gold status. Projects
pursuing LEED certification earn points for various green building strategies across several categories
based on the number of points achieved, a project earns one of four LEED rating levels: Certified, Silver,
Gold or Platinum.
The County Public Works department has been methodically retrofitting LED lighting and associated
lighting controls for interior and exterior building lighting. The most recent lighting project completed in
2020 is a fluorescent-to-LED lighting retrofit project using a Job Order Contractor (JOC) at the County’s
DOiT Headquarters at 30 Douglas. The building has the County’s highest electricity user per square foot,
usage associated with the servicers and requisite cooling. Nearly five hundred new fixtures were
installed in the 35,000 square foot building. At an installed cost of approximately $200,000, the LED
retrofit will save over $40,000/year in reduced electricity, maintenance and cooling costs (LED lights put
of significantly less heat per lumen than fluorescent). The project will pay for itself in five years.
13
In addition to saving money and energy, the new lighting is brighter, more evenly distributed, and
dimmable through a wall switch. Each overhead LED light fixture has a built-in sensor for motion and
light detection and is programmable through a phone app so customization is straight-forward. LED
fixtures near to windows automatically dim when sunlight is high, clearly the most efficient mode of
operation. The County’s intention is to systematically continue the retrofit process until all County-
owned buildings have the best available and most efficient lighting technology.
CAP Reference: 1.1 Increase the number of carbon neutral buildings in CCC
Recycle - The Materials Management Division of Public Works provides collection of recyclable
materials generated by County department operations to reduce waste that goes to landfills and to help
preserve our natural resources. An average of 750 tons per year of paper, cardboard, and scrap metal is
collected, baled, and recycled from County operations.
• Horizontal balers and bales of cardboard bales
Green Products for Custodial Services – One goal of the Department is to construct County
buildings to Leadership in Energy and Environmental Design (LEED) standard and continue to follow
green practices to keep building operations clean once occupied by staff. The County is considered a
Green Cleaning Agency. Green Cleaning refers to using cleaning methods and products with
environmentally friendly ingredients and procedures which are designed to preserve health and
environmental quality. Green Cleaning techniques and products avoid the use of products which
contain toxic chemicals and other conditions. Green Cleaning can also describe the way industrial
14
cleaning products are manufactured, packaged and distributed. If the manufacturing process is
environmentally friendly and the products are biodegradable, then the term “Green” or “Eco-Friendly”
may apply.
The Custodial Services Division of Public Works ensures that the County follows Green Cleaning practices
when purchasing cleaning supplies and following proper procedures for cleaning buildings.
CAP Reference: 3.2 – Reduce waste from County operations, including contracts for services and products.
Cool Roofs – The Public Works Facilities Services continues to take the opportunity to incorporate
“cool roofs” on county facilities as roof replacements are needed. Below are just two examples of “cool
roofs” being installed at 40 and 50 Douglas Drive in Martinez.
CAP Reference: 2.3 – Address impacts of heat islands.
Low Impact Development/Green Infrastructure (GI) - The Clean Water Act Municipal Regional
Permit (MRP) requires new projects that create or replace 10,000 square feet of impervious surface and
other special categories such as uncovered, stand-alone parking lots that create 5,000 square feet of
impervious surface to install stormwater treatment facilities. These facilities often include native
grasses, shrubs, and trees. The acreage of added GI will be tracked and reported annually through the
use of GIS. The goal is to reduce stormwater pollutants and erosion of our creeks and channels.
CAP Reference: 2.2 Sequester carbon in natural lands in CCC. Install Green Infrastructure
15
Purchasing Services
Environmentally Preferable Purchasing Policy – The Purchasing Division will work with the
Sustainability Coordinator and the Sustainability Commission to update the policy. Work will begin in
early 2021. Environmentally preferable procurement (EPP) involves purchasing products or services that
have a lesser or reduced effect on human health and the environment when compared with competing
products or services that serve the same purpose.
Attributes can include a long list of factors that evaluate the purchaser's need, the cost and functionality
of the product, and its environmental effect. Attributes to consider are:
• Recycled content
• Durability
• Maintenance
• Recyclability
• Disposal
• Energy efficiency
• Water efficiency
• Raw materials acquisition
• Production
• Manufacturing
• Packaging
• Distribution and
transportation methods
• Operation

Vehicles are the main source of greenhouse gases that impact our global environment. Through
guidance provided by the Board of Supervisors, the Fleet Services Division’s goal is to green the County’s
fleet by acquiring alternative fuel vehicles and ensuring that the infrastructure is available to support
these vehicles, such as charging stations.
Electric Vehicles – Fleet Services continues to promote building a “Green Fleet” by purchasing 5
electric and 3 plug-in hybrid vehicles as replacement vehicles in FY 2019-20. The Chevy Bolts purchased
have a range in excess of 200 miles which has helped staff overcome range anxiety.
Charging Stations – To date the County has installed 39 smart EV charge ports for employees, the
public and fleet and pool vehicles. In addition, it has 10 non-billable EV charges used for fleet and pool
at the maintenance yard and Public Works headquarters. The County is piggy-backing on the new solar
PPA program to get EV charger infrastructure installed in conjunction with the parking lot solar canopy
projects, significantly reducing the economic and logistical impacts of this work that involves concrete
16
trenching and subsequent patching. This new effort will lead to a potential quadrupling of EV charge
capacity in the County within the next 12 months.
County Watershed Program
The MRP requires projects that create new impervious surfaces such as buildings, parking lots, and
streets of a certain size to install stormwater treatment facilities (low impact development/GI). The
County Watershed Program ensures that the design, installation, and maintenance of GI for County and
developer projects complies with the Permit. The data for those facilities is reported to the San
Francisco Regional Water Quality Control Board each fall with our Annual Report.
The County’s Municipal Stormwater Permit required development of a long-term GI Plan. This plan was
submitted on 8/30/19 and included projects not only adding new GI at County facilities, but also
retrofitting existing County facilities to provide additional GI. We are currently prioritizing the project list
and pursuing grant opportunities.
Our first pilot project is the North Richmond Watershed Connections Project in North Richmond. One
component of the project is to plant approximately 90 trees in the community with State Coastal
Conservancy Grant funds. The tree plantings are scheduled for 2022.

The North Richmond Watershed Connections Project is also installing approximately 1,700 square feet
of green infrastructure bio-swales along Fred Jackson Way with State Coastal Conservancy Grant funds.
The work is scheduled for 2021.

Flood Control Program
The Flood Control District has adopted a “50-year Plan” which encourages investigating opportunities to
convert concrete flood control channels into earthen channels as the infrastructure reaches the end of
its life, or as redevelopment occurs. The District works with cities on this effort. No city has proposed a
project that fits the 50-year Plan model yet.

upslope habitat migration, and with ample room for new wetland establishment. This project, scheduled
for construction in 2021, restores and enhances approximately 303 acres of coastal habitat, including 89
acres of tidal wetlands and 15 acres of non-tidal wetlands, 12 acres of tidal waters. The project is located
in unincorporated County just east of the City of Martinez.

Improving Watersheds
Giving Natives a Chance Native Planting
Since 2013, the Flood Control District has coordinated annual native plantings at Clayton Valley Drain in
Concord to promote native plant populations. Working with the non-profit, The Restoration Trust,
typically 5,000 or more grass plugs of native creeping wild rye, Santa Barbara sedge, or Baltic rush are
planted each year by volunteers or a contractor. These species provide natural erosion control, fire
suppression, and are compatible with flood control objectives. They spread from underground rhizomes
that anchor the soil and are all perennial species, meaning they stay green all year. They do not have
woody stems, so during floods, they lay down on the slope, which does not impede the flow of water
during high-flow events. These species also provide carbon sequestration, unlike non-native annuals,
and remove as much as 500,000 gC/acre a year or about ½ ton of carbon per acre per year. The planted
areas are approximately ¾ of an acre. Prior to 2013 and the annual restoration work, the site had less
than 5% native cover. Native cover is now over 50% and is likely to continue to increase as the native
vegetation grows and expands.
Arundo Removal
Since 2019, the Flood Control District partnered with the Contra Costa Resource Conservation District
and the Walnut Creek Watershed Council to support removal of the invasive plant, arundo donax, from
the Walnut Creek Watershed. The member groups of the Council focus on removal within each of their
respective sub-watersheds (e.g. Lafayette, San Ramon Creeks) while the District focused on removing
20
arundo at its Kubicek Basin facility on Pine Creek in Walnut Creek. Multiple visits are necessary to
effectively remove this invasive plant. This aggressive plant can grow four inches a day and up to 30 feet
tall crowding out native plants very quickly. They consume large amounts of water without providing
food or habitat for insects, birds or other wildlife, and are flammable year-round which makes them a
constant fire hazard.

Subject:UPDATED PARTIAL RELEASE OF COMPENSATION AGREEMENT FOR FUTURE DEVELOPMENT
PROPERTIES - CITY OF EL CERRITO
FISCAL IMPACT:
Approximately $46,657 in one-time dissolution revenue to the County, the County Library, the Flood
Control and Water Conservation District and the Contra Costa Water Agency. This is derived from
estimated net proceeds to the City from the sale of the properties, which will be remitted to the County
Auditor Controller for distrobution to the Affected Taxing Entities (ATEs). This figure will likely
change and is based on illustrative Applicable Shares of the Taxing Entities included in Exhibit C to the
Compensation Agreement between the County and the City using property tax shares as of January 1,
2017 as a reference.
BACKGROUND:
As part of the 2011 Budget Act, and in order to protect funding for core public services at the local level,
the Legislature approved the dissolution of the state’s 400 plus Redevelopment Agencies (RDAs). After
a period of litigation, RDAs were officially dissolved as of February 1, 2012. As a result of the
elimination of the RDAs, property tax revenues are now being used to pay required payments on
existing bonds, other obligations, and pass-through payments to local governments. The remaining
property tax revenues that exceed the enforceable obligations are now being allocated to cities, counties,
special districts, and school and community college districts, thereby providing critical resources to
preserve core public services.
To help facilitate the wind-down process at the local level, successor agencies were established to
manage redevelopment projects currently underway, make payments on enforceable obligations, and
dispose of redevelopment assets and properties. Each Successor Agency has an Oversight Board that
supervises its work. The Oversight Board is comprised of representatives of the local agencies that serve
the redevelopment project area: the city, county, special districts, and K-14 educational agencies.
Oversight Board members have a fiduciary responsibility to holders of enforceable obligations, as well
as to the local agencies that would benefit from property tax distributions from the former
redevelopment project area.
FINDING OF COMPLETION
Pursuant to Health and Safety Code (HSC) Section 34179.7, the California Department of Finance
(DOF) was authorized to issue a finding of completion to a Successor Agency, once the following
conditions had been met and verified by December 31, 2015:
The Successor Agency had paid the full amount as determined during the Due
Diligence Reviews and the County Auditor-Controller has reported those payments
to DOF, and
The Successor Agency had paid the full amount as determined during the July
True-Up process, or
The Successor Agency had paid the full amount upon a final judicial determination
of the amounts due and confirmation that those amounts have been paid by the
County Auditor-Controller, or
The Successor Agency had entered into a written installment payment plan with
DOF for the payments owed from above.
Upon receiving the finding of completion, a Successor Agency is allowed to do the following:
Place loan agreements between the former redevelopment agency and sponsoring
entity on the Recognized Obligation Payment Schedule (ROPS), as an enforceable
obligation, provided the oversight board makes a finding that the loan was for
legitimate redevelopment purposes per HSC Section 34191.4 (b) (1) Loan
repayments will be governed by criteria in HSC section 34191.4 9 (a) (2).
Utilize proceeds derived from bonds issued prior to Jan. 1, 2011 in a manner
consistent with the original bond covenants per HSC Section 34191.4 (c)
However, if on a payment plan, and a Successor Agency fails to fully make one or
more payments agreed to in the written installment plan, the benefits above may be
revoked.
LONG RANGE PROPERTY MANAGEMENT PLAN
Pursuant to Health and Safety Code section 34191.5, within six months after receiving a Finding of
Completion from DOF, a Successor Agency is required to submit for approval to it's Oversight Board
and DOF a Long-Range Property Management Plan (LRPMP) that addresses the disposition and use of
the real properties of the former redevelopment agency. If DOF had not approved a plan by January 1,
2016, then the Successor Agency was to have disposed of their property pursuant to 34177 (e).
COMPENSATION AGREEMENTS
Some LRPMPs prepared by successor agencies include a provision providing that certain real property
of the former redevelopment agency would be retained and used for future development purposes
pursuant to HSC 34179.5(c)(5)(C). As part of that, LRPMPs submitted by successor agencies have
contemplated the use of “compensation agreements” between an individual successor agency and
affected taxing entities (ATEs), the terms of which are not subject to approval by DOF, pursuant to HSC
34180(f)(1).
Specifically, HSC 34180(f)(1) states that:
"If a city, county, or city and county wishes to retain any properties or other assets
for future redevelopment activities, funded from its own funds and under its own
auspices, it must reach a compensation agreement with the other taxing entities to
provide payments to them in proportion to their shares of the base property tax, as
determined pursuant to Section 34188, for the value of the property retained."
On March 28, 2017 the Board of Supervisors referred the issue of establishing a policy for the review of
compensation agreements submitted by cities related to redevelopment dissolution to the Finance
Committee for evaluation. The Finance Committee met on April 24, 2017 to discuss the issue and has
forwarded a policy recommendation to the full Board of review and approval. Subsequently, the Board
approved the attached policy framework and direct the County Administrator to commence negotiating
with cities that request compensation agreements with the County on May 2, 2017.
CITY OF EL CERRITO
Following the Board's approval of the compensation agreement policy terms, the County began
negotiating terms and conditions of a compensation agreement with the City of El Cerrito for four (4)
future development properties that were formerly owned by the El Cerrito Redevelopment Agency. In
September 2018, the Board entered into a Compensation Agreement with the City of El Cerrito that
included some minor deviations from the Board's previously approved policy framework:
1. Rather than defer payment of the "gross market value" of properties, the County would agree to
deferral of "net unrestricted proceeds", as defined in the agreement, to account for the City's customary
costs of selling the properties. This includes transactional costs such as real estate brokerage fees, legal
fees, etc.
2. Rather than requiring payment of the highest "gross market value" over the five-year period, the City
would be responsible for remitting the "net unrestricted proceeds" based on the market value of the
properties at the time of sale during the five year period.
3. Rather than requiring a new Grant Deed to be recorded against each future development property
limiting the use of the property solely to those uses outlined in the City's Long Range Property
Management Plan (LRPMP), as approved by the California Department of Finance, the parties will
record a "Notice of Compensation Agreement Related to Real Property" identifying the major terms of
the compensation agreement to protect the County's interest in future disposition proceeds from each
property.
4. Finally, the compensation agreement calls for the remittance of payment to the County for any
properties not part of a Developer Disposition Agreement (DDA) after 60 months (five years), following
the effective date of the agreement, in an amount equal to the fair market value as of the 2011 property
tax lien date. The payment is to be remitted no later than 66 months (5.5 years) following the effective
date of the compensation agreement to allow the City sufficient time to identify eligible funds to remit
payment to the County.
Each of the exceptions above was been made to balance the financial and policy interests of both the
County and the City. Ultimately, the compensation agreement allows the City to move forward in
marketing the properties to future developments consistent with the City's General Plan and guarantees
the County's financial interest in the properties as provided for in the redevelopment dissolution statutes.
PARTIAL SALE OF EASTSHORE PROPERTY
The City has notified the County that certain property subject to the compensation agreement discussed
above is pending sale, specifically 6111 Potrero Ave. El Cerrito, and has requested that a Partial Release
of Notice of Compensation Agreement Related to Real Property (the "Release") be recorded to remove
liens from those properties. Section 5(a) of the Compensation Agreement provides that the City must sell
the property for fair market value, consistent with State statute. Fair market value for properties can be
evidenced in two ways according to the compesation agreement: 1) by an appraisal of the property; or 2)
the proposed sale price of the property in an arm's length transaction put out to the market.
The City has provided the County with an appraisal for the property for which the Release is being
requested and the County has verified that those fair market value estimates are the sales prices included
on Settlement Statements provided by the escrow company to the City.
Since the fair market value estimates by a third party appraiser are the sales prices for each property, the
City has fulfilled its responsibility under the Compensation Agreement. For this reason, we are
recommending that the Partial Release of Notice of Compensation Agreement Related to Real Property
be executed, in substantially the same form as the version attached, and be remitted to the City for
recordation with the County Clerk-Recorder.
CONSEQUENCE OF NEGATIVE ACTION:
The County, including certain entities governed by the Board of Supervisors, will not have authority to
The County, including certain entities governed by the Board of Supervisors, will not have authority to

FISCAL IMPACT:
None at this time. However, the result of the recommendations herein, if implemented, are designed to
maintain the County's fiscal stability in FY 2021/2022 and improve it in subsequent years.
BACKGROUND:
The Board of Supervisors, Department Heads, and our Employees worked and sacrificed to stabilize the
County's finances during the last decade. Now our task will be to preserve this legacy so as to prevent a
return to those years in which we were making painful cuts to programs and to the staff that was necessary
to provide those services.
There are always factors over which the County has little or no control (such as a Pandemic, federal and
State budgets actions, economic changes, and demographics) that will affect the size of the baseline budget
and ultimately challenge the County’s budget. Over the next five years we can expect more fiscal volatility
due to the Federal Tax plan, State legislative action, as well as negotiated wage and benefit increases.
The majority of the County's general purpose revenues are generated through property taxes. Revenue and
Taxation Code section 51 provides that base year values determined under section 110.1 shall be
compounded annually by an inflation factor not to exceed 2 percent. Section 51(a)(1)(C) provides that, for
any assessment year commencing on or after January 1, 1998, the inflation factor shall be the percentage
change, rounded to the nearest one-thousandth of 1 percent, from October of the prior fiscal year to October
of the current fiscal year in the California Consumer Price Index (CCPI) for all items, as determined by the
California Department of Industrial Relations. Information from the Department of Industrial Relations
shows that the CCPI increased from 283.901 in October 2019 to 286.843 in October 2020. Rounded to the
nearest one-thousandth of 1 percent, this is an increase of 1.036 percent. Accordingly, we will prepare our
2021 assessment roll using an inflation factor of 1.04.
The Board of Supervisors has authorized the establishment of an Office of Racial Equity and Social Justice
The Board of Supervisors has authorized the establishment of an Office of Racial Equity and Social Justice
(D. 4, 11/10/20). Although the Office has not yet been established, departments are encouraged to include
the voices of diverse communities in budget development discussions with the goal of advancing racial
equity and/or social justice through County programs.
As per the norm, Department Heads will be expected to work closely with the County Administrator to
design a balanced budget that restricts the growth in net County cost while minimizing service delivery
cuts. Wherever possible, categorical/program revenues will be increased to offset the increased cost of
doing business. Restrictions on increases in net County cost needed to balance the budget may result in the
loss of federal and State program revenues, and this added loss may cause program reductions.
Meet and Confer
Departmental budget requests are due to the County Administrator’s Office on February 5. At that time
Department Heads will know which, if any, positions may be affected by reductions necessary to balance
the budget. Departments, in cooperation with Labor Relations, will if necessary, begin the meet and confer
process with employee representatives regarding the impact of potential program reductions on the terms
and conditions of employment for affected employees. Early planning will allow Departments a reasonable
period of time to meet and confer, and permit them to implement all budgetary required actions prior to July
1, 2021. Per the norm, this progress will allow the County to adopt a budget that is balanced from the first
day of the new fiscal year.
Public Notice
The County Budget Act requires that the Board of Supervisors publish a notice in a newspaper of general
circulation throughout the county, stating when budget documents will be available and the date of Budget
Hearings. The FY 2021/22 Recommended Budget document will be available to the public approximately
April 1, 2021.
Conclusion
The County Administrator will return to the Board on April 20 with a FY 2021/22 Recommended Budget
that meets the requirements listed above. Tuesday, April 20 will be reserved for FY 2021/22 budget
hearings including Bielenson hearings if needed. Additionally, it is recommended that the County
Administrator return to the Board of Supervisors on Tuesday, May 11 for adoption of the FY 2021/22
Recommended County and Special District Budgets, including any changes the Board makes on April 20.
CONSEQUENCE OF NEGATIVE ACTION:
Delayed processing of the FY 2021/22 Recommended Budget and potential impact on the fiscal stability of
the County and Special Districts.
RECOMMENDATION(S):
APPROVE the Third Amendment to the Agency Assistance Agreement dated December 19, 2005, between
the Successor Agency to the Contra Costa County Redevelopment Agency, on one hand, and PHVP I, LP,
and Pleasant Hill Transit Village Associates, LLC, on the other, to reflect that the property was
development with rental units.
FISCAL IMPACT:
No general funds are involved. The amendment to the Agency Assistance Agreement merely updates
language in the agreement to eliminate references to “For Sale Property” and makes other conforming
changes.
BACKGROUND:
On July 2, 2004, the Board of Supervisors and the Governing Board of the Redevelopment Agency
approved a Joint Exercise of Powers Agreement between the Redevelopment Agency and the Bay Area
Rapid Transit District (BART), creating the Pleasant Hill BART Leasing Authority (JPA). The JPA
subsequently leased a portion of the real property located at the Pleasant Hill BART Station from BART.
Most of that property has been subleased to a developer, including the portion known as Block C, for the
construction of a transit village. (The portion that has not been subleased, known as Block D, is subject to a

Subject:Third Amendment to Agency Assistance Agreement
BACKGROUND: (CONT'D)
disposition and development agreement with the developer.) The transit village includes commercial
space and residential rental units adjacent to the BART Station.
The purpose of the Agency Assistance Agreement was to ensure that in exchange for the Redevelopment
Agency providing financing for public improvements to the transit village and the BART Station, a
portion of the residential rental units would remain affordable for at least 55 years.
The development plan for the transit village originally contemplated that Block C would be used for the
development of for-sale townhomes. That plan was abandoned after the recession of 2008. The
amendment to the Agency Assistance Agreement that is the subject of this board order substitutes
“Block C” for “For Sale Property” and makes other conforming changes to reflect that Block C has not
been developed with for-sale housing.
CONSEQUENCE OF NEGATIVE ACTION:
Given the long term of the Agency Assistance Agreement, failing to correct the terminology in the
agreement could lead to confusion in its administration in the future.

THIRD AMENDMENT TO
AGENCY ASSISTANCE AGREEMENT
This Third Amendment to Agency Assistance Agreement (“Amendment”) is dated as of
, 2021, and is by and between the SUCCESSOR AGENCY TO THE CONTRA COSTA COUNTY
REDEVELOPMENT AGENCY (the “Successor Agency”), a separate legal entity, PHVP I LP, a
Delaware limited partnership (“Partnership”), and PLEASANT HILL TRANSIT VILLAGE
ASSOCIATES, LLC, a Delaware limited liability company (“Developer”).
RECITALS
A. The Pleasant Hill BART Station Leasing Authority, a joint powers agency (the
“Authority”) and Developer are parties to a Disposition and Development Agreement dated
December 19, 2005 (as subsequently amended by five amendments, the “DDA”) for the
development of a portion of the BART Station Property. As originally drafted, the DDA
obligated Developer to develop (i) the Apartment Project and the Liner Building Project, both of
which consist of residential rental units, on a portion of the BART Station Property, and (ii)
townhouses for sale to the public on another portion of the BART Station Property. The site on
which the townhouses were to be built was originally referred to as the “For-Sale Property,” or
‘Lot 1.” With the completion of the fourth amendment to the DDA in 2016, the site on which
the townhouses were to be built became known as ‘Block C.”
B. The Successor Agency and Developer are parties to the Agency Assistance
Agreement dated December 19, 2005, (as subsequently amended by two amendments, the
“Agency Assistance Agreement”). The purpose of the Agency Assistance Agreement was to
provide financial assistance to Developer to assure that a portion of the rental units developed as
part of the Apartment Project and the Liner Building Project would remain affordable for at least
fifty-five (55) years.
C. That portion of the Agency Assistance Agreement that relates to the Apartment
Project and the Liner Building Project was assigned by Developer to the Partnership pursuant to
an Assignment and Assumption of Agency Assistance Agreement between Developer and the
Partnership dated as of July 31, 2008.
D. As discussed above, the DDA originally contemplated that a portion of the BART
Station Property, specifically, the “For-Sale Property,” also known as “Lot 1” and “Block C,”
would be used for the development of for-sale townhouses. Following the Great Recession of
2008 and the dissolution of the Contra Costa County Redevelopment Agency on February 1,
2012, Developer and the Authority agreed to abandon efforts to develop Block C with for-sale
housing.
E. In 2016, pursuant to the fourth amendment to DDA, the Authority approved the
development of Block C with 200 units of multifamily rental housing.
F. The parties desire to amend the Agency Assistance Agreement to change the
words “For-Sale” to “Block C,” and make other conforming changes to reflect that Block C has
83203.00001\33120306.3
- 2 -
