RECOMMENDATION(S): (CONT'D)
5. DIRECT the County Administrator, or designee, to send Resolution No. 2022/267 to the County Auditor to notify the County Auditor of
the approved transfer.
FISCAL IMPACT:
No net impact to the County. If approved, Resolution 2022/267 will transfer from the County to CCCFPD the revenue previously assigned
to ECCFPD for fiscal year 2022/23 and will transfer the ad valorem property tax base and increment from the County to CCCFPD
beginning with fiscal year 2023/24. The property tax base and increment are associated with six tax rate areas: 60043, 60047, 60048, 60050,
60055, and 60056, excepting two small parcels within these tax rates areas (APNs 011-190-044/-045). Although it is not possible to predict
future property tax revenues with certainty, the property tax revenues for fiscal year 2021/22 for the six tax rate areas at issue totaled
$952,380.52. Because these property revenues were previously transferred to ECCFPD, transfer of the funds to CCCFPD will not impact
County fees or services.
BACKGROUND:
On August 10, 2016, the Contra Costa Local Agency Formation Commission (the “LAFCO”) approved the detachment of the Subject
Property, which comprises approximately 480 acres, from the Byron-Bethany Irrigation District (the “BBID”) and approved the reallocation
of the associated property tax base and increment to the County. On October 12, 2016, LAFCO’s order of detachment became final.
On October 18, 2016, the Board of Supervisors approved the transfer of the portion of the County’s property tax base and increment that
had previously been allocated to BBID to the ECCFPD. (Resolution No. 2016/332.) The transfer was authorized under a law which permits
a local agency to transfer a portion of its property tax revenues to another local agency. (Rev. & Tax. Code, § 99.02.) The Board determined
the contribution would help to bolster ECCFPD, which, due to “a lack of sufficient funding resulting from low property tax rates,” had been
forced to reduce its fire and medical services.
Resolution No. 2016/506, which authorized the property tax transfer, states that if ECCFPD is dissolved by order of LAFCO, the property
tax transfer will automatically terminate and, the Board of Supervisor’s intent is to reallocate the property tax revenues for fire and
emergency medical services for the residents of Discovery Bay. An associated agreement between the County and ECCFPD, concerning
the annual transfer of the property tax base and increment to ECCFPD, similarly provides that any transfers cease at the end of any fiscal
year in which LAFCO approves the dissolution of ECCFPD.
On March 9, 2022, LAFCO approved the dissolution of ECCFPD, effective at the end of June 30, 2022. On July 1, 2022, CCCFPD
assumed most of the duties and obligations of ECCFPD as its successor agency. Under the statutes governing the allocation and
apportionment of property tax revenues, the property tax revenues that were being transferred to ECCFPD revert to the County. As
ECCFPD was dissolved at the end of the day on June 30, 2022, the transfer of the property tax revenues from the Subject Territory
terminated on July 1, 2022.
By adopting the attached Resolution No. 2022/267, the Board of Supervisors will determine to transfer to CCCFPD that portion of the
County’s property tax base and increment that was previously transferred to ECCFPD from the Subject Territory. This resolution would
permanently transfer, beginning with fiscal year 2023/24, the base tax and increment allocation factor described in Resolution No.
2016/332.
The transferred property tax revenues will be used to help CCCFPD provide fire and emergency medical services to those in its service
area, which now includes the Discovery Bay Community Services District. As the successor agency to ECCFPD, CCCFPD has newly
assumed responsibilities to serve an additional 143,000 residents, spread over 249 square miles. The recommended transfer of the property
tax base and increment from the Subject Territory will provide crucial funding that will help CCCFPD provide fire and emergency medical
services throughout its service area, including the area encompassing the Discovery Bay Community Services District.
CONSEQUENCE OF NEGATIVE ACTION:
If the resolution is not adopted and approved, the County’s property tax base and increment share and annual revenue will be increased, and
CCCFPD will not receive additional funding for providing fire and emergency medical services, including in the areas recently annexed to
CCCFPD.

Resolution No. 2022/267
IN THE MATTER OF APPROVING THE TRANSFER OF PROPERTY TAX REVENUES TO THE CONTRA COSTA COUNTY FIRE
PROTECTION DISTRICT
WHEREAS, Section 99.02 of the Revenue and Taxation Code provides that any local agency may, by the adoption of a
resolution of its governing body or governing board, determine to transfer any portion of its property tax revenues that is
allocatable to one or more tax rate areas within the local agency to one or more other local agencies have the same tax rate area or
tax rate areas; and
WHEREAS, on October 18, 2016, the Contra Costa County Board of Supervisors approved the transfer to the East Contra Costa
Fire Protection District (the “ECCFPD”) of property tax revenues associated with six tax rate areas: 60043, 60047, 60048, 60050,
60055, and 60056, excepting two small parcels within these tax rate areas (APNs 011-190-044/-045); and
WHEREAS, the County and ECCFPD entered into the Agreement for Property Tax Transfer from Contra Costa County to East
Contra Costa Fire Protection District (the “Agreement”), which concerns the transfer of the County’s property tax base and
increment to ECCFPD and provides that upon LAFCO’s approval of the dissolution of ECCFPD, the Agreement is terminated
and any transfers under the Agreement cease at the end of the fiscal year in which LAFCO approves the dissolution; and
WHEREAS, Resolution No. 2016/506, which authorized the property tax transfer, states that if ECCFPD is dissolved by order
of LAFCO, the property tax transfer will automatically terminate and further states that in such an event, it is the Board of
Supervisor’s intent to reallocate the property tax revenues for fire and emergency medical services for the residents of Discovery
Bay; and
WHEREAS, o n March 9, 2022, LAFCO approved the dissolution of ECCFPD, effective at the end of June 30, 2022; and
WHEREAS, on July 1, 2022, the Contra Costa County Fire Protection District (“CCCFPD”) assumed the duties and obligations
of ECCFPD as its successor agency, except that CCCFPD did not assume any of ECCFPD’s collective bargaining agreements, its
express or implied contracts for retiree health/OPEB for its active employees, or any other employment agreements with its active
employees ; and
WHEREAS, under the statutes governing the allocation and apportionment of property tax revenues and the Agreement, the
property tax revenues that were being transferred to ECCFPD revert to the County.
NOW, THEREFORE, IT IS RESOLVED by the Board of Supervisors of Contra Costa County:
1.FINDS that lack of sufficient funding resulting from low property tax rates in the area recently annexed to CCCFPD
following the dissolution of ECCFPD required ECCFPD to reduce fire and medical response services despite increasing
call volumes and required emergency financial contributions from the County and the cities of Oakley and Brentwood; and
2.FINDS that County revenues previously transferred to ECCFPD are available for transfer to CCCFPD, beginning with
fiscal year 2022/23;
3.FINDS that the transfer will not result in any increase in the ratio between the amount of revenues of the County that are
generated by regulatory licenses, use charges, user fees, or assessments and the amount of County revenues used to finance
services provided by the County.
4.FINDS that the transfer will not impair the County’s ability to provide existing services.
5.FINDS that the transfer will not result in a reduction of property tax to school entities.
6.HEREBY DETERMINES to transfer to CCCFPD that portion of the County’s property tax base and increment that was
previously allocated to the ECCFPD from tax rate areas 60043, 60047, 60048, 60050, 60055, and 60056.

approved by the LAFCO, the property tax transfer will automatically terminate.

Contra
Costa
County
Subject:Contract #74-639-2 with Shelter, Inc.
FISCAL IMPACT:
Approval of the contract will result in budgeted expenditures of up to $335,152 and will be funded by 78% Substance Abuse Prevention and
Treatment Block Grant ($261,500) and 22% Substance Abuse Prevention and Treatment Block Perinatal Grant ($73,652) revenues. (Rate
increase)
BACKGROUND:
The County has been contracting with Shelter, Inc., since October 2021 to provide specialty housing for adults participating in substance
use disorder treatment. In December 2021, the County executed Contract #74-639 with the contractor for specialty housing services for
adults participating in substance use disorder treatment in an amount not to exceed $166,861 during the period October 1, 2021 through
June 30, 2022.
On May 1, 2022, the Alcohol and Other Drugs Program Chief requested Department Head approval to amend Contract #74-639 to increase
the payment limit by $49,751 due to the prior invoices reaching the contract payment limit. On June 17, 2022, a contract amendment was
sent to Shelter, Inc. for signature. The June 21, 2022 Board of Supervisor agenda included a contract amendment request from the Health
Services Department. The Board of Supervisors approved Amendment Agreement #74-639-1 to increase the payment limit from $166,861
to $216,612, effective May 1, 2022, for Shelter, Inc. to provide additional specialty housing for adults participating in substance use
disorder treatment with no change in the term October 1, 2021 through June 30, 2022.
On July 26, 2022, the department requested Board approval to execute Contract #74-639-2 with Shelter, Inc. for the continuation of their
speciality housing services for adults participating in substance use disorder treatment through June 30, 2023. The item was removed from
the consent calendar and instead heard as a discussion item. At the conclusion of the discussion, the item was continued for further
discussion at the August 2, 2022 meeting. In preparation for the continued discussion, the Board directed the Health Services Department to
prepare a status report inclusive of a list of the sober living environments (SLE) housing providers subcontracted with Shelter, Inc., payment
status of invoices received by Shelter, Inc. from all the subcontractors, payment status of invoices received by the County from Shelter, Inc.
Additionally, the Board referred to the Finance Committee a report on the Health Services Department's contract management and invoice
payment oversight processes. The report is expected by the September Finance Committee.
Please see the attached report from the Behavioral Health Services Division of the Health Services Department for the information
requested.
CONSEQUENCE OF NEGATIVE ACTION:
If this contract is not approved, County clients will not have access to this contractor’s services and the County will not have a contract in
place to provide these critical services.

Shelter, Inc. Payment Status Report and Attachments
To: Contra Costa Board of Supervisors
From: Suzanne Tavano, PhD-Director of Behavioral Health Services
Re: Staff Report related to Contract #74-639 for approval of renewal Contract #74-639 2
Date: August 2, 2022
On July 26, 2020, Contract #74-639-2 was removed from the Consent Calendar at the request of
Chair Mitchoff and placed as a Discussion Item. This contract with Shelter, Inc includes obligations to
provide and administer specialty housing services for adult residents of Contra Costa County who are
participating in substance use disorder treatment.
During the Discussion period, several community members and one known owner of recovery
housing expressed concern about contract management by Shelter, Inc. involving delayed or denied
payments to owners/operators of the recovery housing.
This report seeks to provide responses to statements made regarding payments not being timely or
forthcoming and to provide to the Board of Supervisors a list of recovery homes whose rental
payments are the responsibility of Shelter, Inc., as well as an accounting of when payment demands
were submitted by house owners and paid by Shelter, Inc, an explanation of a statement made by
Behavioral Health Services in a letter to Support4Recovery following a meeting in which concerns
about Shelter, Inc were expressed and the request made to return this contract to
Support4Recovery, and an accounting of when payment demands submitted by Shelter, Inc were
received and paid by Health Services.
BACKGROUND:
Support4Recovery first was awarded a contract in FY 18-19 with a payment limit of $43,000 to
provide the above referenced specialty housing. During the last full year contract (FY 20-21) the
payment limit was $251,000. This contractor provided these services over a four-year period as
specified in the table below:
On March 23, 2021, Support4Recovery notified Contra Costa Health Services- Behavioral Health of
its decision to relinquish the contract services. Consequently, Shelter, Inc was contacted and agreed
to assume the contract. Every effort was made to transition the contract as quickly as possible, with
the support of Support4Recovery, to Shelter, Inc to avoid disruption in services.
The initial contract with Shelter, Inc to manage payments for specialized housing, with a contract
payment limit of $166,861, was approved in December 2021 by the Board of Supervisors, with the
assumption of services commencing January 1, 2022.
On June 21, 2022, the Board of Supervisors approved Amendment Agreement #74-639-1 to
increase the Shelter, Inc. contract payment limit to $216,612. The amendment need was the result
of additional funding secured by Health Services.
During a meeting on June 9, 2022 with Support4Recovery, return of the contract was requested. The
response provided to them was that the contract had just been awarded to Shelter, Inc. but
Support4Recovery could pursue future contracts with Health Services if additional funding became
available. Support4Recover also expressed additional concerns about Shelter, Inc. This meeting was
followed by a letter from Support4Recovery on June 15, 2022 again requesting the County to return
contracting with them.
On June 27, 2022, Support4Recovery submitted a letter to Lavonna Martin, Health Services Deputy
Director, regarding their concerns and preparedness to resume the contract. In response to the
letter, Behavioral Health Services met with Mr. Aswad and other Support4Recovery representatives
on June 30, 2022 to hear more about concerns of late and missing payments to providers,
On July 8, 2022, Behavioral Health Services met with Shelter, Inc. management to review the
complaints and concerns made by Support4Recovery and the operators who directly contacted
Behavioral Health Services. Shelter, Inc. stated that all payments for services rendered had been
paid to house operators who submitted adequate substantiation of residence by the clients for the
time period charged. It was stated there remained some disputed claims with one provider, East Bay
Recovery Homes, but attempts actively were being made to resolve this and justified payments
would be made when requested information was provided.
On July 20, 2022, Behavioral Health Services invited all Sober Living Environment (SLE) providers to
attend a meeting to discuss any outstanding concerns. Shelter, Inc. and all providers, with the
exception of East Bay Recovery Homes, Restore, and Peace House, were in attendance and engaged
in collaboration building. A Grievance Form was distributed to inform providers of a formal
mechanism to report concerns and grievances, and advisement was given. Behavioral Health
Services also informed the providers of visiting the homes to provide technical assistance, answer
questions and hear of any outstanding concerns.
In a letter dated July 25, 2022 from Behavioral Health Services to Support4Recovery, it was stated
that all outstanding issues were addressed and resolved. To clarify, the statement meant to confirm
that outstanding claims that were adequately documented had been paid and resolved. The
statement was not intended to signify that disputed claims related to duplicate billing, services
rendered prior to Shelter, Inc becoming the contractor, or missing documentation of services had
been paid.
In response to Behavioral Health Services’ inquiry to Shelter, Inc. regarding outstanding provider
payments, Shelter, Inc. reached out to Peace House, Restore.Hope.Dignity.Life, and East Bay
Recovery Homes regarding any payment disputes and the information needed to issue payment.
Additionally, on July 28, 2022, they provided a timeline of the communications with Lela Johnson
from East Bay Recovery Homes, and included as Attachment D.

INFORMATION NOTICE NO: 802-IN AODS
TO: All Contra Costa County AODS Subcontracted Providers
SUBJECT: AODS Monitoring of Over and Underutilization of
Services Procedure
This information notice was generated to inform all county-operated and contracted provider
Substance Use Services (SUD) staff on procedures for monitoring the underutilization and
overutilization of services and compliance with all Federal, State and local regulations and
policies.
Contra Costa County Alcohol and Other Drugs Services (AODS) regularly monitor county-
operated and contracted substance use providers to monitor over/underutilization of services. This
ensures the proper allocation of funds to meet the needs of those residing in Contra Costa County
and manage resources in the most efficient way. The allocation of funds is subject to availability
and review by the AODS Chief.
The following outlines the procedures utilized by Contra Costa County AODS to ensure the proper
utilization of services throughout the county through the monthly demand process and spreadsheet,
review of weekly referrals and contract amendments:
Monthly Demand Process and Spreadsheet
A.At the beginning of each Fiscal year, the AODS Account Clerk creates an Internal
Demand Tracking Spreadsheet for each contract provider that tracks the total
budget allocation by facility and by funding source reflecting the information of the
AODS Master Budget List. The Master Budget is developed by the AODS program
chief along with the Finance Department and used by the AODS Program Manager
responsible for preparing contracts to initiate renewal of current contracts that have
been approved for all contracted facilities. The initial Internal Demand Tracking
Spreadsheet for each Fiscal year must be updated and finalized within ten business
days of the start of the new Fiscal year.
1.When contracts are amended or new contracts are generated for additional
services, the additional funds or line items are added to the Internal Demand
Tracking Spreadsheet within 72 hours of receipt of the confirmation of the
Attachment E
802-IN AODS Monitoring of Over and Underutilization of Services Procedure 2
approved contract. All units of service, costs per unit and/or funds
allocations are updated as necessary to reflect the current AODS contracts.
2. As soon as contract amounts and units of service confirmed, the Account
Clerk prepares a Monthly Activity Report form for each provider which is
locked to prevent changes to the formulas.
B. All contracted providers are required to submit monthly demands requesting
reimbursement for services on or before the 10th of the month for all services
rendered during the previous month. The submission must include a signed copy of
the original D-15 Demand, a Monthly Activity Report (MAR) form, DATAR
report, Management Information Systems (MIS) Reports and any other required
backup documentation showing proof of the services rendered. For SUD
Prevention Services, providers must include along with the D-15, MAR, a
Prevention Services Data System (PSDS) report, Narrative Report, Prevention
Monthly Activity, sign-in sheets, agendas, minutes and any other required
documentation.
1. Contracted providers that fail to submit demands in a timely manner are
notified, in writing via email, by the AODS Account Clerk of the late
demands within 5 business days from the due date.
2. If the late demands are not received within 48 hours of the initial contact,
the AODS Program Manager contacts the Executive Director or designee
of the provider overseeing the submission of demand packet. The late
demands shall be submitted within 3-5 business days of the contact.
a. If a provider still fails to submit the late demands, the AODS Chief
contacts the Executive Director of the contracted provider. The
demands are to be submitted within 24 hours of the contact.
b. Demands that are not received after notification by the AODS Chief
will be delayed and processed as received along with all other
demands.
C. Upon receipt of the demands, the AODS Account Clerk reviews the MIS reports
for accuracy and cross-references against the units of service listed on the MAR
form along with the amount posted on the demand, The AODS Account Clerk also
ensures for completeness of the packet of the required backup documentation
submitted by the contracted provider.
1. If the demands do not match the submitted units of service provided in the
documents, the Account Clerk will generate the necessary reports from the
County MIS system to confirm the services. If a correction is needed the
Account Clerk will call the provider and request a revision or any additional
information.
D. After a demand has been processed and checked for accuracy, the total number of
units of service rendered and the reimbursable costs are entered into the Internal
Demand Tracking Spreadsheet for the appropriate Fiscal year by the AODS
Account Clerk.
802-IN AODS Monitoring of Over and Underutilization of Services Procedure 3
E. Upon completion of entry, the AODS Account Clerk reviews the Internal Demand
Tracking Spreadsheet to ensure that there are sufficient funds are available for
reimbursement of services. Every month, the clerk checks and documents the
percentage of utilization of funds. All processed demands are forwarded to the
AODS Program Manager for confirmation along with a copy of the Internal
Demand Tracking Spreadsheet referenced in the demands. The AODS Program
Manager monitors service under or over utilization and contract performance to
prevent shortages of funds in a timely manner. Completed Demands are forwarded
to the AODS Chief for final review and signature. At any point in the review
process where discrepancies are found, the process is stopped to rectify, clarify, etc.
Signed demands are forwarded to the Finance Department for further processing.
Assuming no significant issues are found during the reconciliation process, all
Demands shall be processed and forwarded to the Finance Department within five
business days of receipt from the contracted provider.
1. Generally, shortages of funds will be prevented through monitoring of
expenditures; however, occasionally there might be an unanticipated high
fluctuation of services if the allocation of funds does not allow for full
reimbursement of services, the AODS Account Clerk will notify the AODS
Program Manager or AODS Chief of the particular line item of concern.
a. For Drug Medi-Cal contracts, the contract shall be amended based
on the projected continued need of the services being rendered at the
particular facility and the availability of funds.
b. For SAPT-BG contracts, the provider is responsible to ensure that
funding and services are spread through the end of the fiscal year.
F. At the end of each quarter of the Fiscal year, the AODS Account Clerk utilizes the
Internal Demand Tracking Spreadsheet to generate a trend analysis for each line
item of every contract. Those results are forwarded to the AODS Program Manager
for review. Twice per year, the AODS Program Manager shares a summary with
the AOD Program Chief to address any issues that may have arisen during the trend
analysis.

RECOMMENDATION(S):
1. RECEIVE report on language interpretation services and FY21-22 related expenditures.
2. DETERMINE if any changes should be made to the current practice of the Board of Supervisors or the Measure X Community Advisory
Board at their meetings with the interpretation services provided.
FISCAL IMPACT:
This is an informational report only.
This report includes the FY 2021/22 total costs of $80,370, related to interpreter services for the Board of Supervisors and Measure X meetings.
BACKGROUND:
History of Interpretation Services
On March 26, 2019, the Board of Supervisors (BOS) requested that the Internal Operations Committee (IOC) develop a policy on language
interpretation services at Board of Supervisors meetings. The IOC considered this matter on September 9, 2019 and decided that the services
could not practically be rolled out until staff relocated to the new Administration Building at 1025 Escobar Street in Martinez.
On January 21, 2020, staff presented, at IOC direction, a report to the Board of Supervisors with options for implementing language translation
services at BOS meetings upon 72 hours’ prior notice once the Board began using its new meeting chambers, estimated to be in June 2020. The
Board’s direction in January was for the Clerk of the Board Division to secure its own contract for hiring interpreters, which would enable BOS
meetings to feature additional requested services for the public. This roll-out would include adding a language interpretation policy to the
County website and working with the Office of Communications and Media on how to communicate the new policy and procedures to the
public.
Efforts to plan and implement language interpretation and translation were stymied by the COVID-19 pandemic. At the beginning of the
pandemic, the Board had still been meeting at 651 Pine Street. State and County health orders necessitated converting Board of Supervisors
meetings to a virtual model.

Subject:Language Interpretation Services at Board of Supervisors and Measure X Meetings
BACKGROUND: (CONT'D)
Ensuring effective virtual meetings with public participation was the focus for both Clerk of the Board and DoIT (Department of Information Technology) for the
second and third quarters of 2020. These divisions worked collaboratively to convert meetings to an entirely new format, while preserving the ability of the public
to participate. As the logistics for managing the BOS meetings were refined, the use of interpretation services for public comment was quickly added. A board
room interpreter was introduced at the September 8, 2020 Board of Supervisors meeting. The current process for interpretation services is to have an interpreter in
the Board Chambers who provides consecutive interpretation for Spanish-speakers during public comment periods of the meetings. The County currently
contracts with Continental Interpreting for interpretation services.
Based on direction from the February 2021 Internal Operations Committee meeting, the Clerk of the Board completed the following:
Added language to the Board of Supervisors agenda template regarding the availability of Spanish interpretation and
closed-captioning;
Worked with the Office of Communications and Media on a news release for the Supervisors to share with constituents
about the availability of Spanish interpretation and closed-captioning;
Worked with the current vendor, Continental Interpreting, to create a list of other potential languages, including Mandarin,
Cantonese, Tagalog, Vietnamese, and Farsi. The average cost per interpreter is $1,100 per full day (up to 4 hours) and
$1,800 per extended full day (up to 9 hours). Two to three business days is required, with one week being the ideal amount
of notice, to request either an on-site or remote interpreter;
Researched costs to translate board materials to other languages. Costs start at 16 cents per word for Spanish translation and
24 cents per word for most European, Middle Eastern and Asian Languages. An average 22 page/ 8,092 word agenda would
cost $1,294.72 to translate into Spanish. A vendor needs approximately a 72-hour notice to translate an agenda, which
would also entail editing to the timeline for publication. The entire agenda process would increase by the 72 hours plus
editing time in order to have the Spanish version of the agenda ready for publishing 96 hours before the meeting.
Counties comparisonThe Clerk of the Board surveyed the California Clerk of the Boards in June 2022 and received feedback from three of the four counties
surveyed in 2019 plus five other counties that currently provide some level of interpretation services:
Alameda County - Clerk of the Board has contracts with two vendors and provides services in both American Sign
Language and Spanish upon a 72-hour advance request;
Santa Clara - has two language interpreters who provide Spanish and Vietnamese services at each Board of Supervisors
meeting and the interpreters attend the meetings from before roll call through adjournment. Agenda information is
translated upon request only, yet there have been very few requests for this service;
Marin County – Uses a real-time Spanish language interpreter on a concurrent Zoom feed;
Los Angeles County has a Spanish interpreter available by phone for each meeting regardless of if it has been requested;
San Bernadino County has a Spanish interpreter at each board meeting regardless of if it has been requested by a member
of the public;
San Diego County has a Spanish interpreter at each Board meeting, regardless of if it has been requested. Additional
languages identified as having a Substantial Number of Limited English-Speaking Persons in the County, including Arabic,
Chinese (Mandarin), Korean, Persian (Farsi, Dari), Somali, Tagalog, and Vietnamese may be made available upon request
to the Clerk of the Board at least 72 hours prior to the meeting;
Sonoma County provides simultaneous Spanish interpretation in Zoom for every meeting. They have a note to ask for
additional language accommodation with the Clerk’s Office as needed; and
Kern County offers simultaneous Spanish interpretation for the TRUTH Act Forum and at Budget Hearing meetings.
Current Practices at Board of Supervisors and Measure X Community Advisory Board Meetings
The Board currently offers closed-captioning and Spanish language interpretation at all Board meetings. No advance notice is required by the public since the
interpreter is present during the entirety of the Board of Supervisors meeting. In addition, the Measure X Community Advisory Board meetings also offer
closed-captioning, American Sign Language, and simultaneous Spanish interpretation at its meetings.
Fiscal Year 2021/22 Costs Associated with Interpretation Services & Usage of Services
Interpretation Services Procured FY 2021-22
Spanish ASL Total Costs Number of Meetings
Board of Supervisors $42,300 n/a $42,300 32
Measure X Community Advisory Board $12,720 $32,250 $35,970 20
Truth Forum $2,100 n/a $2,100 1
$57,120 $23,250 $80,370 53
For FY 2021/22, the County has used an interpreter at all the Board of Supervisors, Fire Protection District, and the Housing Authority meetings. The County
also used simultaneous interpretation for the annual Truth Act forum and for 20 Measure X meetings.
Interpretation costs associated with these meetings are as follows:
Board of Supervisors meetings = $42,300 ($2,820 per comment interpreted)
Truth Act forum = $2,100
Measure X meetings = $35,970 ($4,496 per comment interpreted)
Approximately 15 public comments were interpreted at the Board of Supervisors meetings during FY 2021/22. The interpreter announces in Spanish the option for
the public to comment to the Board of Supervisors on average of ten times per meeting: for consent items, for each of the discussion items, and the opportunity to
speak under general public comment. For the Measure X Community Advisory Board, comments were made in Spanish and American Sign Language at eight of
the 20 meetings during the fiscal year.
Conclusion
Contra Costa County has made significant efforts to increase accessibility and engagement for its constituency. Compared to other counties, Contra Costa County
is one of the few California Counties to have a full-time board room interpreter at all its Board of Supervisor, Fire Protection District and Housing Authority
meetings. For FY 2021-22, interpretation services were provided in Spanish and American Sign Language at 53 public meetings, for a total cost of $80,370, and
public comments in either language totaled 23. To balance public access with cost and demand for services, County administration seeks direction on the policies
for language interpretation services moving forward. Two major options are provided for consideration.
1. Maintain existing practices – Provide a Spanish interpreter at each Board of Supervisors and Truth Act Forum meeting, and simultaneous Spanish interpretation
and American Sign Language at each Measure X meeting.
2. Shift to providing American Sign Language and Spanish interpreter services upon a 72-hour advance request for Measure X meetings and a 72-hour advance
request for Spanish interpreter services at the Board of Supervisors meetings. Simultaneous Spanish interpretation will continue to be standard at the annual Truth
Act Forum.
CLERK'S ADDENDUM
Speakers: Caller 6770; Gigi Crowder, Executive Director NAMI (National Alliance on Mental Illness); Elizabeth Ortega; Dr. Kirby Lynch; Amber;
Erica Yanez; Chelsea; Phillip; Debbie Toth.
RECEIVED the report; ACKNOWLEDGED that the contract for the fiscal year 2022--2023 is already approved; REFERRED the matter to the
Internal Operations Committe to gather additional information on the practices of other counties and issues surrounding equal access; STATED an
interest in simultaneous broadcast in Spanish.
RECOMMENDATION(S):
RECEIVE status report on the proposed utilization of Measure X funds in the amount of $50,000 for the establishment of a countywide library
foundation and CONSIDER providing input on foundation formation.
FISCAL IMPACT:
No additional fiscal impact. The seed funding to support establishment of the Library Foundation of Contra Costa was previously allocated by
the Board of Supervisors from Measure X local sales tax funds.
BACKGROUND:
Contra Costa County Library is currently supported by 29 different Friends of the Library and Library Foundation groups (See Attachment 1).
All but two of them are registered 501(c)(3) nonprofit organizations. The Library’s adult literacy program, Project Second Chance, also has a
501(c)(3) nonprofit support group called Project Second Chance, Inc.
In general, the Friends of the Library groups raise funds by reselling donated used books. They use the proceeds from those sales to fund books
and programs at their associated local libraries. (N.B. The Clayton and San Ramon Library Foundation function as Friends groups.) Library
Foundations, on the other hand, raise funds from corporate or individual gifts and may also apply for grants and host fundraising events. All
library foundations associated with Contra Costa County Library came into existence to raise funds for new capital projects. Once new library
construction is completed, the foundations either dissolve or continue to raise funds that go towards facility and/or service improvements and
sometimes extra open hours.
Since these existing support groups are dedicated to fundraising for their local libraries, the funds they bring in are restricted for use at their
associated library. However, the amount of funds generated by each group varies dramatically. The support groups in the wealthier communities
bring in significantly more funds than the support groups in less wealthy communities. For example, the Friends of the San Pablo Library
typically bring in approximately $2,000 each year compared to the Friends of the Danville Library who typically bring in approximately
$44,000 each year. It is also worth noting that none of the libraries in low-income communities have an existing library foundation, which
means there is limited support for fundraising for the upcoming library capital projects in Bay Point and Oakley.

From:Alison McKee, County Librarian

County
Subject:PROCESS TO CREATE COUNTY LIBRARY FOUNDATION
BACKGROUND: (CONT'D)
This disparity enables the libraries in wealthier communities to offer more services, and in some cases open hours, than those libraries in
low-income communities. Additionally, there is currently no group that is focused on fundraising for the resources and services offered on a
countywide basis, such as online databases, countywide collections, or library marketing campaigns.
In the 2016 report, Promoting Excellence in Library Service in Contra Costa County, the Contra Costa County Library
Commission identified severe funding shortages in the Library’s ability to serve county residents. One of the recommendations from the
report is:
implementation of a centrally organized fundraising effort to secure private gifts and bequests
in support of countywide services.
At the 2017 Friends, Foundation and Commission Forum at the Walnut Creek Library, Commissioner Don McCormick (District 3), who at
the time also served on the Board of the Alameda County Library Foundation, discussed with then County Librarian Melinda Cervantes the
possibility of starting a library foundation dedicated to raising funds for the libraries in East Contra Costa County, to which she responded
positively. Commissioner McCormick then approached District 3 Supervisor Burgis about the idea, to which she also responded positively.
On Feb. 18, 2018, Supervisor Burgis hosted a meeting with Library staff, certain Library Commissioners, and District III and District V
staff to explore the possibility of creating a Library Foundation dedicated to raising funds for East County Libraries. The proposed mission
of the Contra Costa County “Delta Library Foundation” was to be:
provide critical support to local libraries resulting in all people in our communities
having access to knowledge in all its forms.
We accomplish this mission by raising revenue in support of library programs,
facilities and services that promote traditional and digital literacy,
encourage educational achievement and lifelong learning, and address opportunity gaps
in the communities we serve.
All attendees agreed that a library foundation would be a positive entity, however, soon thereafter it was determined that all the
communities in the county would benefit from a library foundation, and thus it was preferable for its focus to be countywide.
As a result, former County Librarian Melinda Cervantes formed a small task force of volunteers to consider the idea, seek input from local
library foundations and friends groups, and develop a conceptual plan. On June 4, 2018, Commissioner McCormick presented a status
report on this effort to the Library Commission. During the presentation, he emphasized the disparities among the various libraries in Contra
Costa County that could be alleviated with funds raised by a countywide library foundation. He also mentioned the positive feedback that
was received from local library foundations during meetings he had with them to introduce the concept. The commissioners present at this
meeting were very supportive and excited about the potential of a countywide library foundation.
Due to difficulties in obtaining start-up funds, the effort to create the countywide library foundation was stalled until 2021, when the new
County Librarian, Alison McKee, determined one of her priorities would be to move forward with its creation. She encouraged the
formation of a new committee to work with her in developing plans for its implementation. The group of individuals who volunteered are
made up of members of the Library Commission as well as other interested community members. In the Summer of 2021, members of this
organizing committee met with each of the County Supervisors to inform them of the group’s activities and ask for their input and support.
Measure X
In December of 2021, the foundation organizing committee submitted a proposal to the Board of Supervisors requesting $300,000 in
one-time Measure X funds to establish the Library Foundation of Contra Costa. On February 22, 2022, the Board of Supervisors allocated
$50,000 of Measure X funds (see Attachment 2, BOS approval) as ‘seed money’ to help establish the Library Foundation of Contra Costa.
This one-time allocation will enable the foundation organizing committee to:
Enlist professional legal and financial expertise to assist with creating the Foundation’s fiscal and organizational structure and
registration as a CA 501(c)(3) nonprofit organization
Create a website presence and fund online hosting costs associated with a website
Library Foundation of Contra Costa
The Library Foundation of Contra Costa (“Foundation”) is being formed to assist the Contra Costa County Library in its mission to provide
library services to county residents that “spark imagination, fuel potential, and connect people with ideas and each other.”
As the County Library’s fundraising arm, the Foundation will seek private support for projects that are not or cannot be funded through
existing Library funding sources. In so doing, the Foundation will support the Library's goals and objectives to:
Provide equitable access to services, programs, and facilities throughout the county;
Promote literacy, educational achievement, and lifelong learning; and
Address gaps in facilities and library service in impacted communities.
The Foundation will work closely with the County Librarian to identify funding priorities. The primary focus will be on collections, capital
projects, and programs and services not funded by the Library’s existing budget or local library foundations and friends groups. The
Foundation will work with local library foundations and friends groups to seek opportunities for coordination, potential collaboration, and
organizational development.
The Foundation will be a non-profit 501(c)(3) organization registered with the IRS and the State of California. It will be operated and
governed by an independent board of directors, and donations will be tax deductible to the full extent of the law. During its organizational
phase, the Foundation will operate under fiscal sponsorship.
Fiscal Sponsorship
Since it can take up to a year to acquire tax-exempt status, many aspiring nonprofits use an already established 501(c)(3) nonprofit
tax-exempt organization as a fiscal sponsor to be able receive contributions prior to becoming a 501(c)(3). Using a fiscal agent will allow
donors to make tax-deductible contributions to the Library Foundation of Contra Costa through the fiscal agent even though the Foundation
does not have tax-exempt status yet. Once tax-exempt status is obtained, the Library Foundation of Contra Costa will dissolve the fiscal
sponsorship relationship since it will be able to receive donations directly.
The foundation organizing committee conducted a comprehensive search and analysis of potential fiscal sponsors. They met with and
assessed nine non-profit organizations and finally determined that the West County Public Education Fund (Ed Fund West) was the best
candidate. In addition to enabling donors to make tax-deductible contributions to the Foundation, Ed Fund West will also provide
significant administrative support including:
accounting services according to generally accepted accounting principles (GAAP)
auditing, including an annual audit of financial records
banking
bill paying
insurance coverage
On April 25, 2022, Nicole Gemmer, chair of the foundation organizing committee, executed a contract and addendum with West County
Public Education Fund (Ed Fund West) to act as fiscal agent on behalf of the foundation organizing committee. Ed Fund West agreed to
serve as fiscal agent in exchange for 10% of all donated and earned revenue received, except for the $50,000 Measure X funds granted to
the group by the Board of Supervisors. Under the terms of its contract with Nicole Gemmer, Ed Fund West will receive and disburse funds
on behalf of the foundation organizing committee in support of the establishment of the Library Foundation of Contra Costa.
To enable members of the organizing committee of the Foundation of Contra Costa to access the Measure X funds granted from the Board
of Supervisors, the County will enter into an agreement with their fiscal sponsor, Ed Fund West. The agreement will outline the activities
for which Ed Fund West will disburse the funds to the organizing committee. The funds will be held and disbursed pro bono by Ed Fund
West to the organizing committee once the County Librarian has verified that the expenses align with the disbursement categories .
Broadly, the major disbursement categories are proposed as:
Preparation for IRS filing not to exceed $2,500 based on actual receipts for out-of-pocket expenses.1.
Filing for nonprofit, tax-exempt status not to exceed $32,500 based on actual invoices for professional Certified Public Accountant
or specialized legal services.
2.
Graphic Art/Website Development, domain name and hosting not to exceed $15,000 based on actual invoices for professional
services.
3.
Unused balance after the three objectives above have been met, to be optimized by the foundation for fundraising, grant leveraging,
and fundraising leadership and capacity development countywide.
4.
Potential Areas for Board of Supervisors Input
The Foundation expects to operate as a private non-profit entity and, as such, will not be under the governance of the County, nor will
money raised by the Foundation belong to the library or the County. This is typical of foundations both in general and in Contra Costa
County. For example, the Contra Costa Regional Health Foundation operates separately from County Government and so does the Alameda
County Library Foundation. However, the foundation organizing committee encourages suggestions from the Board of Supervisors on
formation elements including:
number of directors (usually a range)
criteria for selection of initial and future board members (e.g., geographic, ex-officio, voting/non-voting, stakeholder or
socio-economic designations)
potential initial board members
potential community partners, and
future projects of interest.
On June 16, 2022, the Board's Internal Operations Committee held a public discussion with the County Librarian and members of the
foundation organizing committee and Library Commission regarding the preceding formation elements. A written record of that discussion
and public comment is attached (Attachment 3: IOC DRAFT Record of Action 6/16/22) and available online at this link. In summary, the
Committee preferred an independent foundation board of no more than seven, composed of a diverse group of individuals with strong
financial acumen and having access to or connections with philanthropists and corporate donors. These individuals could come from
anywhere in the community but would likely come from existing charitable foundations and industry. Such a foundation could establish its
own community advisory committee or rely on the County Library Commission for community input. The Committee envisioned such a
own community advisory committee or rely on the County Library Commission for community input. The Committee envisioned such a
foundation would raise funds to address inequities that exist across the library system, support services that can be offered countywide, and
assist branch library foundations.
This matter has been scheduled for discussion today to provide the Board of Supervisors the opportunity to provide input on these formation
elements and receive public comment.

DRAFT Record of Action for Internal Operations Committee,
Item 5, June 16, 2022 Special Meeting
County Librarian Alison McKee presented the staff report, providing background on how the
concept of establishing a county library foundation came about and referencing a 2016 report
called "Promoting Excellence in Library Service in Contra Costa County", which included such a
recommendation. Since 2016, several involved people have come and gone but the current
organizing committee still has members who work ed on the 2016 report.
Alison introduced Nicole Gemmer, Danville Library Commissioner and Foundation Organizing
Committee Chair; Peter Wilson, District V Library Commissioner; Rachel Rosekind, District I
Library Commissioner; Kathy Gilcrest, San Ramon re sident and main author of the 2016 report;
Angela Lowrey, Friends of the Oakley Library; and Michael Fisher, El Cerrito Library
Foundation and El Cerrito Library Commissioner. The Foundation Organizing Committee has
been meeting regularly to plan, meeting with and researching best practices of other library
foundations, meeting with local library foundations, County supervisors, the East Bay
Leadership Council, and the County Hospital Foundation to obtain input and feedback on
foundation formation. The Organizing Committee met with many potential nonprofit fiscal
sponsors and entered into an agreement with Ed Fund West that will allow the Organizing
Committee to operate with the benefits of a nonprofit organization while navigating the process
of becoming a tax-exempt nonprofit foundation. Under fiscal sponsorship, the Organizing
Committee will be able to fundraise.
The County intends to enter into its own financial agreement with Ed Fund West to provide for
disbursement of the Measure X funding allocation for expenses related to the Organizing
Committee's efforts to establish the tax-exempt nonprofit foundation. The County also intends to
enter into a nonfinancial agreement with the Organizing Committee outlining parameters for use
of the Measure X funds, process for accessing the funds, and reporting/documentation
requirements.
Once the Foundation is established, it is envisioned to function as an autonomous, non-County
entity but will work closely with the Board of Supervisors and County Librarian to align
goals. The County Librarian asked for the Internal Operations Committee's and Board's input on
formation elements including:
number of directors (usually a range)
criteria for selection of initial and future board members (e.g., geographic, ex-offic io,
voting/non-voting, stakeholder or socio-economic designations)
potential initial board members
potential community partners, and
future projects of interest.
Vice Chair Andersen acknowledged the challenge of achieving representation across the County,
having so many cities. She is inclined towards a smaller board but with geographic
representation. She suggested that the Organizing Committee consult each County Supervisor to
obtain input on how the foundation board should be constituted both in size a nd
composition. She would like to see the foundation direct its resources to library services that are
provided countywide and would like to see partnerships with other County departments. She
2
believes the library can serve as youth or afterschool centers to provide safe environments for
unsupervised youths.
Chair Burgis explained that she had appointed, early in her County tenure, Don McCormick,
who served on the Alameda County Library Foundation, because she believed a foundation
should be established for East County library services or countywide to help communities that
had less robust library services. Originally, she envisioned such a foundation as addressing
some of the inequities that exist across the library system but also appreciates the oppo rtunity to
address services that are can be offered countywide. She views the $50,000 Measure X
allocation as seed money to grow a foundation that would not necessarily continue to be reliant
on Measure X funds but would become capable of raising its own funds through philanthropy,
grants, grant leveraging and investments. She prefers to see a foundation board of no more than
seven members who can demonstrate what can be done with $50,000, not just in terms of
generating money but also developing leadership. She prefers the foundation board to be
composed of people with expertise in fund building and also by members of those communities
that need to be built up.
Vice Chair Andersen expressed a preference that the foundation not be a County-appointed
entity so that it can operate freely without the constraints that are placed on governmental
bodies. Staff verified that a private nonprofit corporation would not be subject to the Brown
Act. Staff shared that upon review of the library foundations of several other California
counties, most had boards reviewed comprised 8 -10 members and there appeared to be at least
two distinctive models: one weighing heavily on library and community stakeholder
representation and another (Alameda County specifically) weighing heavily on industry
leaders/financiers with connections to wealth and potential endowments.
Chair Burgis would like to see a foundation that can attract new funding and expertise to help
address the needs of library stakeholders, so she is inclined to wards a foundation board that is
business-oriented in terms of generating financing, mentoring leadership and connecting people
to funders. Staff mentioned that the Alameda County Library Foundation has its own advisory
board composed of community stakeholders and that the County Library Commission could
possibly serve in such a capacity.
Vice Chair Andersen is inclined to recommend that the foundation be independent of the County,
be composed primarily of business leaders who can attract funding for libr ary needs and include
representation of other local library foundations. She is not opposed to the Library continuing to
apply for future Measure X dollars independent of the future foundation.
At this point in the meeting, the Committee learned that an unidentified caller was attempting but
being prevented from joining the meeting by telephone, and wished to participate and
comment. Since staff was unable to identify and resolve the source of the technical problem
while the meeting was in progress, staff provided Caller 1 access to the meeting through a
desktop telephone and Caller 1 was then able to listen to and, later, comment on the matter being
discussed.

Chair Burgis invited public comment:
Peter Wilson commented that the objective of the library foundation is to raise funds to
address library needs identified by the County Librarian. He has raised upwards of $30
million in his university work and has found that the most successful fundraising is
designed around major gifts that support specific programs and facilities rather than
operations expenses, which he expects the County to fund. He believes the guideline for
selection of foundation board members should be "can they raise money or do they have
money?" He recognizes the Alameda County model as an appropriate model and
believes such a model can be achieved while still recognizing diversity, but the
foundation's primary mission of fund development should be paramount.
Nicole Gemmer concurred with Mr. Wilson's comments and said that founda tion board
members should be passionate about the mission. She believes that the foundation's
independence and autonomy will help to attract board members and will give donors
confidence that the money will go where it will do the most good. For transparency and
accountability, she said it will be important to seat individuals that do not have conflicts
of interest. She said that there is no money for staff, therefore everyone involved will
have to work, and expectations about what can be accomplished with no staff must be
realistic. She said there is good energy on the Organizing Committee and group synergy
should also be a consideration for seating members on the foundation board.
Michael Fischer thanked the County for the Measure X funding and offered whatever
support he could to the foundation effort.
Kathy Gilcrest commented that she spent most of her 40 -year career as a grant maker for
a large Los Angeles foundation and for grant-seeking organizations such as universities
and small nonprofits. As a grantmaker, she funded public-private partnerships and
witnessed their power to transform. The new foundation hopes to do that same
thing. She did fund startup nonprofits and, so, has an awareness of what is needed to
grow a foundation into a robust and sustainable organization. As a major gifts fundraiser
for universities, she participated in capital campaigns that raised billions of dollars over
the years using a peer-to-peer model that relied on leadership of a private board of
directors and their allies in the private sector to raise funds. She believes the model being
considered is consistent with that, ie., "people give to people". She acknowledged a need
to build a foundation board that is as representative of our community as we can make it
and that has the capacity, given that they will have little or no staff, to do the job that
needs to be done.
Caller 1 explained that she missed much of the discussion because she could not gain
access to the meeting through her telephone and was now being c onnected through staff's
speakerphone. She said that Measure X money is hard-earned money and hopes that the
money is being allocated to the Library with the intention to strengthen the educational
strengths of those communities that need academic interve ntion rather than using public
money to further certain public activists or politicians to move their pet agendas
disguised as charity or literacy. She said it would be wrong to indoctrinate young
children sexually and, as a public and a parent, she does not support use of her tax money
for such purposes. She hopes this money will be used for academic intervention only.
Angela Lowrey commented that she was asked to participate in the countywide library
foundation Organizing Committee a few months ago and observed that the group is
dedicated, focused, and committed to getting this foundation set up in a way that is viable
long-term, that honors hard-earned public funds, and is centered on going the
4
distance. People donate to foundations because of the trust and confidence that is
established. She expressed appreciation for both the Organizing Committee and the
opportunity to participate in it.
Susan Hildreth offered written public comment that is attached to these minutes.
Vice Chair Andersen said the Organizing Committee seems very capable and the Internal
Operations Committee does not want to be an impediment to the Organizing Committee's efforts
if they have a true vision. Chair Burgis concluded that she would like to see reports back to the
County about how the Measure X allocation is being used and suggested the possibility that
additional Measure X funds might be made available.

County
Subject:Community Facilities District No. 2022-1 (Contra Costa Centre Area – Park Maintenance) Ordinance Adoption.
BACKGROUND: (CONT'D)
Condition of Approval #76 for the project includes an obligation of the Developer to work with the County to form a Community Facilities
District ("CFD") to provide annual revenue for the maintenance of parks and trails in the Contra Costa Centre area, particularly the linear
park known as Walden Green and other park facilities. The recommended action is the third step in establishing a CFD that would provide
for the levy of a special tax each year to be paid by the owner of the apartment project following the occupancy of the apartments, the
proceeds of which are to be used for park maintenance services. It would establish a Mello-Roos Special Tax to be paid annually by the
Developer/Owner of the Del Hombre Apartments Project. The special tax would initially be set at a rate of $143.33/residential unit, be
indexed for inflation, and be permanent. It has been determined that the best vehicle for generating the service tax is through a Mello-Roos
Community Facilities District proceeding. Expenditures to be covered by the Special Tax may include payment of staff expenses (including
salary, benefits, and overhead), and expenses related to the administration and collection of the special tax. The proposed CFD which is
recommended to be named Community Facilities District No. 2022-1 (Contra Costa Centre Area-Park Maintenance) ("CFD No. 2022-1"),
has been established to allow the annexation of additional properties if desired by the property owner(s). The proposed boundary of CFD
2022-1 and a proposed annexation area for CFD No. 2022-1 area depicted in Attachment A.
The Board of Supervisors ("Board") meeting of August 2, 2022 is the third meeting of the Board to consider the formation of CFD No.
2022-1. On May 24, 2022 the Board adopted Resolution No. 2022/173, a Resolution of Intention relating to the establishment of a Contra
Costa Centre Area - Park Maintenance Community Facilities District, and set August 2, 2022 as the date for adoption of an ordinance
establishing the proposed CFD, and actions related thereto.
On July 12, 2022, the Board adopted Resolution No. 2022/243, a Resolution of Formation relating to the establishment of a CFD No.
2022-1; conducted a public hearing to take comments, and closed the public hearing; conducted the Special Election at which time the
property owner of the Del Hombre Apartments Project voted to approve the formation of the CFD; adopted Resolution No. 2022/243, a
Resolution of Formation of Contra Costa County Community Facilities District No. 2022-1 (Contra Costa Centre area - Park Maintenance);
adopted Resolution No. 2022/244, a Resolution Calling Special Election Within Community Facilities District No. 2022-1 (Contra Costa
Centre Area – Park Maintenance); and Resolution No. 2022/245, a Resolution Declaring Results of Special Election and Directing
Recording Notice of Special Tax Lien for Community Facilities District No. 2022-1 (Contra Costa Centre Area – Park Maintenance). The
Board also held first reading of Ordinance No. 2022-24 on July 12, 2022.
The action before the Board is to adopt Ordinance No. 2022-24 entitled “Ordinance Levying Special Taxes within the County of Contra
Costa Community Facilities District No. 2022-1 (Contra Costa Centre Area – Park Maintenance)." The Ordinance authorizes the levy of the
Special Taxes and directs the Auditor-Controller and the Public Works Director to annually prepare the special tax levy and administer the
collection of the special tax assessment. This will conclude the public proceedings related to the establishment of the CFD No. 2022-1.
The recommended actions conform to the requirements of the Mello-Roos Community Facilities Act of 1982, as amended (Chapter 2.5 of
Part 1 of Division 2 of Title 5, commencing at Section 53311 of the California Government Code), and the County Debt management
Policy as applicable.
CONSEQUENCE OF NEGATIVE ACTION:
Not approving the recommended action would result in the developer of the Del Hombre Apartments not fully complying with the
Conditions of Approval imposed by the County.

Ordinance Levying Special Taxes Within the County
of Contra Costa Community Facilities District No. 2022-1
(Contra Costa Centre Area – Park Maintenance)
The Contra Costa County Board of Supervisors ordains as follows:
SECTION I. BACKGROUND.
A. On May 24, 2022, this Board of Supervisors (the “Board”) of the County of Contra
Costa (the “County”) adopted Resolution No. 2022/173 (the “Resolution of
Intention”), stating its intention to establish the County of Contra Costa
Community Facilities District No. 2022-1 (Contra Costa Centre Area – Park
Maintenance) (the “CFD”) pursuant to the Mello-Roos Community Facilities Act
of 1982, Section 53311 et seq. of the California Government Code (the “Law”), to
levy a special tax to fund certain services (the “Services”), and identifying territory
to be initially included in the CFD and territory that may be annexed to the CFD
in the future (the “Future Annexation Area”).
B. On July 12, 2022, in accordance with the Resolution of Intention and the Law, the
Board held a noticed public hearing regarding the CFD and the levy of special
taxes on property within the CFD to provide for the costs of the Services, and
with respect to the Future Annexation Area. At the public hearing, all persons
desiring to be heard on all matters pertaining to the formation of the CFD and
the levy of the special taxes were heard, substantial evidence was presented and
considered by this Board, and a full and fair hearing was held.
C. Upon conclusion of the hearing, the Board adopted Resolution No. 2022/243 (the
“Resolution of Formation”), to form the CFD and authorize the levy of a special
tax on property within the CFD (the “Special Tax”), and Resolution No. 2022/244,
calling for an election on the proposition of levying a special tax and establishing
an appropriations limit for the CFD.
D. On July 12, 2022, an election was held for the CFD in which the sole eligible
elector approved the propositions, and the Board adopted Resolution No.
2022/245, to declare the results of the election.
SECTION II. LEVY OF SPECIAL TAX. The Board hereby authorizes and levies the Special Tax
within the CFD, pursuant to the Law, in accordance with the rate and method of
apportionment of the Special Tax as approved by the Resolution of Formation (the “Rate and
Method of Apportionment”) The special taxes are hereby levied commencing in fiscal year
ORDINANCE NO. 2022-24
2022-23 on each parcel of “Developed Property” (as defined in the Rate and Method of
Apportionment), and in each fiscal year thereafter.
SECTION III. DETERMINATION OF SPECIAL TAX RATE. The Auditor-Controller of the County,
working with the Deputy Director of Public Works of the County, is hereby authorized and
directed each fiscal year to determine, or to cause to be determined, the specific special tax
rate and amount to be levied for each parcel of real property within the CFD, in the manner
and as provided in the Rate and Method of Apportionment.
SECTION IV. EXEMPT PROPERTIES. Properties or entities of the State, federal, or local
governments shall be exempt from any levy of the Special Tax to the extent set forth in the
Rate and Method of Apportionment. In no event shall the Special Tax be levied on any parcel
within the CFD in excess of the maximum tax specified in the Rate and Method of
Apportionment.
SECTION V. USE OF SPECIAL TAXES. All of the collections of the Special Tax shall be used as
provided for in the Law and in the Resolution of Formation, including the payment of costs
of providing the Services, and the costs incurred by the County in administering the CFD and
levying and collecting the Special Tax.
SECTION VI. COLLECTION ON TAX ROLL. The Special Tax shall be collected from time to time
as necessary to meet the financial obligations of the CFD on the secured real property tax roll
in the same manner as ordinary ad valorem taxes are collected. The Special Tax shall have
the same lien priority, and be subject to the same penalties and the same procedure and sale
in cases of delinquency as provided for ad valorem taxes. In addition, the provisions of
Section 53356.1 of the California Government Code shall apply to delinquent Special Tax
payments. The Auditor-Controller of the County, working with the Deputy Director of Public
Works of the County, is hereby authorized and directed to take all actions necessary in order
to effect proper billing and collection of the Special Tax, so that the Special Tax shall be levied
and collected in sufficient amounts and at the times necessary to satisfy the financial
obligations of the CFD in each fiscal year. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Auditor-
Controller of the County, working with the Deputy Director of Public Works of the County,
may collect or cause to be collected one or more installments of the Special Tax on any one
or more parcels in the CFD by means of direct billing of the property owners within the CFD
if, in the judgment of the Auditor-Controller of the County, working with the Deputy Director
of Public Works of the County, such means of collection will reduce the administrative burden
in administering the CFD or is otherwise appropriate in the circumstances. In such event, the
Special Tax shall become delinquent if not paid when due as set forth in any such respective
billing to the applicable property owners.
SECTION VII. ACCOUNTABILITY. Under Section 50075.1 of the Government Code, the
following accountability provision shall apply to the Special Tax: (a) the provision of funding
ORDINANCE NO. 2022-24
for the Services, the incidental costs thereof and of the administration of the CFD, all as
described in the Resolution of Formation, shall constitute the specific purposes of the Special
Tax; (b) the proceeds of the Special Tax shall be applied only to the specific purposes identified
in (a) above; (c) the Auditor-Controller of the County shall create or cause to be created a
special account into which the proceeds of the Special Tax shall be deposited; and (d) the
Director of Public Works of the County, or his or her designee, is directed to prepare and
provide an annual report to the Board as required by Section 50075.3 of the Government
Code.
SECTION VIII. SEVERABILITY. If for any reason any portion of this Ordinance is found to be
invalid, or if the Special Tax is found inapplicable to any particular parcel within the CFD, by a
Court of competent jurisdiction, the balance of this Ordinance, and the application of the
Special Tax to the remaining parcels within the CFD, shall not be affected.
ORDINANCE NO. 2022-24
SECTION IX. EFFECTIVE DATE. This ordinance becomes effective 30 days after passage. Within
15 days of passage, this ordinance shall be published once with the names of the supervisors
voting for and against it in the Contra Costa Times, a newspaper published in this County.

RECOMMENDATION(S):
ADOPT Ordinance No. 2022-29, an ordinance adopting and approving a military equipment use policy for the Contra Costa County Sheriff’s
Office.
FISCAL IMPACT:
There is no fiscal impact associated with the adoption of the proposed ordinance.
BACKGROUND:
The Office of the Sheriff is requesting that the Board adopt an ordinance, as required by Assembly Bill 481 (AB 481), related to the use and
acquisition of certain types of equipment. AB 481, enacted in 2021, requires law enforcement agencies to obtain governing body approval of a
“Military Equipment Use Policy” by an ordinance before the agency can use existing qualifying equipment or obtain new qualifying equipment.
“Military equipment” is defined in Government Code 7070(c), and includes equipment such as drones, robots, certain firearms, and mobile
command vehicles. There is some indication that AB 481 was intended to only apply to equipment actually used by the military or purchased as
military surplus items. The Office of the Sheriff has no such equipment. However, many law enforcement agencies have interpreted the law
more broadly to include the types of equipment listed in AB 481, which are not purchased from military sources. In the interest of transparency,
the Office of the Sheriff has created a military equipment use policy that covers the types of equipment listed in AB 481, even if not purchased
from military sources, and is bringing it to the Board for approval.
The policy will ultimately be found within the Contra Costa County Office of the Sheriff General Policy and Procedure Section 1.07.30. The
draft policy and associated appendix of inventory (acquired before January 1, 2022) have been publicly available on the Office of the Sheriff’s
website since May 2, 2022:

BACKGROUND: (CONT'D)
https://www.cocosheriff.org/community-information/government-code-section-7070-defined-equipment.
The Office of the Sheriff is now submitting the policy and ordinance to the Board for approval and adoption pursuant to Government Code
section 7071. Pursuant to Government Code section 7071(c), the Board shall approve the policy only if the Board determines that:
(1) the military equipment is necessary because there is no reasonable alternative that can achieve the same objective of officer and civilian
safety;
(2) the proposed military equipment use policy will safeguard the public’s welfare, safety, civil rights, and civil liberties;
(3) if purchasing the equipment, the equipment is reasonably cost effective compared to available alternatives that can achieve the same
objective of officer and civilian safety; and
(4) prior military equipment use complied with the military equipment use policy that was in effect at the time, or if prior uses did not
comply with the accompanying military equipment use policy, corrective action has been taken to remedy nonconforming uses and ensure
future compliance.
Military Equipment Use Policy and Equipment
The draft policy meets these conditions and complies with all AB 481 requirements, which include:
(1) a description of each type of equipment, the quantity sought, its capabilities, expected lifespan, and manufacturer product descriptions;
(2) the purposes and authorized uses for which the Office of the Sheriff proposes to use each type of equipment;
(3) the fiscal impact of each type of equipment, including the initial costs of obtaining the equipment and estimated annual costs of
maintaining the equipment;
(4) the legal and procedural rules that govern each authorized use;
(5) the training that must be completed before an officer is allowed to use each specific type of equipment to ensure the full protection of
the public’s welfare, safety, civil rights, and civil liberties;
(6) the mechanisms to ensure compliance with the policy; and
(7) the procedure by which members of the public may register complaints or concerns or submit questions about the use of the equipment.
The policy also provides for the preparation and publishing of the annual equipment report, and the hosting of the annual community
engagement meeting.
The appendix reflects that the Office of the Sheriff owns and uses (on occasion) the following items listed in AB 481:
Unmanned, remotely piloted, powered aerial or ground vehicles. This includes small unmanned aircraft
systems (sUAS) and robots.
1.
Wheeled vehicles, commonly referred to as “BearCats,” with entry apparatus attached.2.
A command vehicle used as a mobile office for critical incidents, search and rescue missions, natural
disasters, and other events.
3.
Breaching apparatuses attached to each BearCat and apparatuses that can be explosive in nature.4.
Specialized firearms, including assault weapons as defined in Sections 30510 and 30515 of the Penal Code.5.
Diversionary “flashbang” grenades, “tear gas,” and “pepper balls.”6.
Long Range Acoustic Devices (LRADs).7.
40mm projectile launchers and associated munitions.8.
The sUAS (drones) and robots allow Office of the Sheriff personnel to obtain real-time vital situational awareness in a quick and safe
manner. Drones are used to find missing persons or search for suspects, map crime scenes, respond to major incidents and events, and
gather evidence. Staff utilize robots during dangerous situations to assess the situation before sending in personnel.
BearCats are used to transport personnel to and from hostile situations and assist with the recovery and protection of civilians in harm’s
way. The vehicles have the ability to mount a breaching apparatus to the front of the vehicle to create an entry point into the location, as
well as safely deploy a chemical agent into a location while maintaining the safety of personnel.
The Mobile Command Vehicle (MCV) is essential to coordinate public safety units at large-scale events, frequently involving personnel
from various agencies and disciplines. The MCV serves as a command post that allows for a unity of command during law enforcement
incidents, search and rescue missions, and natural disasters such as fires and flooding. The command vehicle is equipped with mobile
dispatching equipment.
Breaching equipment, including breaching shotguns, nonelectric delay detonators, and detonating cords, are utilized in high-risk operations
to facilitate entry into locations to ensure the safety of innocent persons, suspects, officers, and the public. This equipment is deployed only
by tactical personnel trained in its proper use.
The specialized firearms as defined by Government Code 7070(c)(10) in the Office of the Sheriff’s inventory are used only by tactical
personnel trained in the firearms’ proper use. Two of the models in the inventory, HK G36C and HK MP5, are only used for training
purposes. The .308 rifles are utilized by tactical personnel who attend ongoing specialized training. These firearms protect both law
enforcement and the public with their high degree of accuracy during violent assaults or hostage situations involving heavily armed or
armored suspects.
The pepper ball launchers, chemical (tear gas) munitions and associated launchers, less lethal munitions and launchers, and diversionary
devices are all considered less lethal tools designed to be used in situations where lethal force may be avoided.
The Long Range Acoustical Devices (LRADs) are portable communication systems used to communicate critical announcements safely and
deescalate critical incidents by ensuring communications are clear and effectively delivered. Office of the Sheriff personnel typically use the
LRADs during high-risk operations, but they can also be used for search and rescue missions or other situations as needed for clear
communication of information.
The policy and appendix reference the specific and authorized uses of the equipment. Personnel must be trained on the equipment before
any deployment. The Office of the Sheriff’s use of force policy requires employees to exercise any use of force judiciously and with respect
for human rights, dignity, and life. Deputies may only use a level of force that they reasonably believe is proportional to the seriousness of
the suspected offense or the reasonably perceived level of threat. It is the policy of the Office of the Sheriff not to interfere with, harass,
intimidate, or discriminate against persons engaged in the lawful exercise of their rights. All use of force incidents are also documented and
reviewed to ensure compliance with agency policy and the law. Any use of the sUAS must comply with constitutional and privacy rights
and FAA regulations.
Much of the equipment included in the policy is highly specialized and designed to perform a specific task as described above. Frequently,
there is no cost-effective alternative available. When there are alternatives available, staff members will conduct testing on and research
regarding similar products from different manufacturers to determine the most cost-effective product, while considering performance and
durability.
Prior to the creation of this policy, the use of equipment defined by Government Code section 7070 was regulated by the internal policies of
the Office of the Sheriff and applicable law. Any use of the equipment was reviewed and investigated. If the use was deemed outside of
policy, corrective action would have been taken through retraining or disciplinary action.
Anticipated Equipment Purchases
For this initial ordinance adoption, the Office of the Sheriff is providing a list of projected equipment purchases for the next fiscal year.
Annual Report and Community Engagement Meeting
Pursuant to Government Code section 7072, beginning in 2023, the Office of the Sheriff will prepare an annual military equipment report
and present the ordinance to the Board for annual review and renewal. The Office of the Sheriff will also hold annual community
engagement meetings related to the release of the equipment report. The annual report will address any use of AB 481 equipment during the
prior year and will include information regarding any complaints, the costs associated with the equipment, and the quantity of each type of
equipment. If applicable, the report will address any requests for changes to the inventory.
Ordinance No. 2022-29 was introduced at the July 26, 2022 Board of Supervisors meeting.
CONSEQUENCE OF NEGATIVE ACTION:
The Office of the Sheriff would not be able to perform its requisite public safety duties to safeguard the lives of Contra Costa citizens.

reasonably result in use of a lesser level of force being used against a subject. Less lethal
munitions may also be deployed when other levels of force are not proportional or are
inappropriate because of the surroundings or situation. The goal of less lethal deployment is to
exert control over a subject(s) with increased safety and with a lower potential for injury.
Authorized Use: Personnel trained in its proper use for law enforcement purposes.
Fiscal Impact: Each type of munition will be purchased as needed to replenish existing supply as
they are used during deployments and training. It is anticipated that the Sheriff’s Office will be
spend approximately $2,000 on munitions this year.
Training: All operators will receive training by an instructor who has attended a POST certified
less lethal course.
Legal and Procedural Rules: Use is established under General Policy 1.06.24, 1.06.60, 1.06.61,
and 1.07.32, as well as applicable law.
Additional Information: The Defense Technology 40mm chemical agent rounds are listed in the

Subject:FY 2021/22 APPROPRIATION AND REVENUE ADJUSTMENT - MERIT BOARD (0036)
BACKGROUND: (CONT'D)
to certain County departments.
In fiscal year 2021/22, the Merit Board received $21,062 in reimbursement revenue that was previously unbudgeted and incurred a like
amount of expenditures, which resulted in annual expenditures exceeding appropriations. Because those expenditures were reimbursed by
unbudgeted revenue, it is necessary to process an appropriations and revenue adjustment to ensure that the budget recognizes those
transactions appropriately.
CONSEQUENCE OF NEGATIVE ACTION:
The fiscal year 2021/22 Merit Board (0036) budget will reflect an over expenditure of appropriations even though there is sufficient revenue
to offset those expenditures.

RECOMMENDATION(S):
APPROVE Fiscal Year 2021-22 Appropriation Adjustment No. 5073 authorizing the transfer of appropriations in the amount of $1,359,913
from the Patrol division to the Emergency Services and Coroner divisions.
FISCAL IMPACT:
Zero Net County Cost.
BACKGROUND:
The mission of the Sheriff is to provide the most efficient and effective law enforcement services possible. The department shall provide
administrative, investigative, technical, forensic, coroner, emergency, detention, and court security services.
At the end of every fiscal year, the Sheriff's Office is required to process an appropriation adjustment that will transfer budget to over-expended
budget units in order to have positive balances at budget level. This action adjusts appropriations to various expenditure accounts to align with
the actual expenditure activity for Fiscal Year 2021-22.

RECOMMENDATION(S):
ADOPT Position Adjustment Resolution No. 26007 to cancel one (1) vacant Substance Abuse Program Supervisor (VHHB) position #16844 at
salary plan and grade ZA5-1682 ($7,165 - $8,709), and add one (1) Substance Abuse Counselor (VHVC) position at salary plan and grade
TC5-1436 ($5,616 - $6,826) in the Health Services Department. (Represented)
FISCAL IMPACT:
Upon approval, this action will result in approximate annual cost savings of $34,358 with a $8,761 pension cost included. This position will be
fully funded by Health Resources and Services Administration (HRSA) revenues.
BACKGROUND:
The Public Health and Behavioral Health divisions in the Health Services Department are requesting to cancel one (1) vacant Substance Abuse
Program Supervisor position, and add one (1) Substance Abuse Counselor position. The Substance Abuse Program Supervisor position was
added as part of the Whole Person Care Grant. This program no longer has funding to cover the cost of this position, which has remained vacant
for over two years. Currently, the Choosing Change Program in the Behavioral Health Division has two Substance Abuse Counselors (one
permanent and one contract). The program has enough funding to support two permanent Substance Abuse Counselors and is requesting to add a
permanent position in order to terminate the temporary contracted position. This position will provide counseling and support services for
effective treatment to patients who want to stop using opioids such as heroin, prescription painkillers like oxycodone, and similar drugs.
CONSEQUENCE OF NEGATIVE ACTION:
If this request is not approved, the division will not have the appropriate staff to effectively address the current needs of the Choosing Change
Program.

County
Subject:Add a Chief Deputy Director-Exempt position and cancel an EHS Director of Administration-Exempt in the Employment and
Human Services Department
BACKGROUND:
EHSD is requesting to add a Chief Deputy Director-Exempt. This is an existing classification that will provide executive support to the
EHSD Director and to the administrative services of the department. An internal review of the administrative services needs in the
department resulted in a decision to restore the Chief Deputy Director position and reassign all the responsibilities from the EHS Director of
Administration plus additional responsibilities to the Chief Deputy Director. The Chief Deputy Director will collaborate closely with the
EHSD Director and will be expected to act on behalf of the EHSD Director as needed. This position would have a wide degree of
independence in the supervision and management of the assigned functions, working collaboratively with other executives to ensure that the
needs of our customers and of our workforce are of the highest priority.
The Chief Deputy Director-Exempt will replace the EHS Director of Administration. The Employment and Human Services Director is
requesting that the incumbent in the position of EHS Director of Administration (employee # 81159) be appointed as the Chief Deputy
Director-Exempt effective immediately. Following this action, the Department is requesting that the position of EHS Director of
Administration (position # 11866) be canceled effective immediately.
CONSEQUENCE OF NEGATIVE ACTION:
Failure to add the Chief Deputy Director-Exempt position in the Employment and Human Services Department may negatively impact the
Department’s effectiveness and efficiency in the delivery of human services to the public, and hinder its growth, operations, and leadership
stability.

RECOMMENDATION(S):
APPOINT Dana Trezise Baumann on an interim basis to the position of County Surveyor at Step 5 of the salary range effective August 1, 2022,
as recommended by the Public Works Director.
FISCAL IMPACT:
The funding for the requested Interim County Surveyor is budged for Fiscal Year 2022-23, and there is no increase in funding. The General
Fund contributes $100,000 to the funding of this position.
BACKGROUND:
When a Public Works Director does not have the authority to act as the County Surveyor as described in Section 24-22.004 of the County Code,
the Board of Supervisors must appoint a County Surveyor. With the retirement of the current County Surveyor, at the end of July 2022, it is
necessary to appoint an interim County Surveyor to perform the necessary duties until a permanent County Surveyor is appointed. The
appointment of an Interim County Surveyor will minimize the impact on service delivery in processing land survey maps, subdivision and
parcel maps, surveys, and property descriptions per the requirements of the Subdivision Map Act and the Professional Land Surveyor’s Act of
the Business and Professionals Codes.

OBGYN-Family Medicine Provider position, which will be responsible for providing prenatal services in various Planned Parenthood locations
throughout the County.
CONSEQUENCE OF NEGATIVE ACTION:
The Health Services department will not have sufficient positions to cover vital pediatric services in various Health Centers throughout the

RECOMMENDATION(S):
ADOPT Position Adjustment Resolution No. 26006 to cancel one (1) vacant Public Health Nurse (VVXA) position #17685 at salary plan and
grade LT2-1832 ($12,119 - $15,135), and add one (1) Registered Nurse (VWXG) position at salary plan and grade L32-1880 ($11,542 -
$14,414) in the Health Services Department. (Represented)
FISCAL IMPACT:
Upon approval, this action will result in approximate annual cost savings of $11,853 with a $3,023 pension cost included. This position will be
fully funded by Health Resources and Services Administration (HRSA) revenues.
BACKGROUND:
The Public Health Division in the Health Services Department is requesting to cancel one (1) vacant Public Health Nurse position, and add one
(1) Registered Nurse position. The Public Health Nurse position was added before the pandemic as the Health Care for the Homeless program
had identified the need for additional case management support for their homeless clients. This position became vacant during the pandemic and
has remained vacant for over two years now. During this time, the program has been able to develop effective workflows to address the needs of
their clients using existing Registered Nurses. However, the program continues to remain short staffed. The department is requesting to cancel
the Public Health Nurse position, and add a Registered Nurse position which will be able to address the current needs of the program. This
position will result in cost savings for the program.
CONSEQUENCE OF NEGATIVE ACTION:
If this request is not approved, the division will not have the proper nursing staff to address the current needs of the Health Care for the
Homeless program.

CONSEQUENCE OF NEGATIVE ACTION:
If this award is not accepted, the County will not receive funding to expand the CoC project which will result in fewer supportive services for
homeless individuals and families putting their well-being and safety at risk.
RECOMMENDATION(S):
APPROVE and AUTHORIZE the Health Services Director, or designee, to execute on behalf of the County Grant Agreement #29-822-3
(State# CA1651L9T052104) with United States Department of Housing and Urban Development (HUD) in an amount payable to the County
not to exceed $1,064,712 for the Contra Costa County Continuum of Care Program (CoC) to provide permanent supportive housing and support
services for High Utilizers of Multiple Systems (HUMS) homeless individuals for the period from December 1, 2022 through November 30,
2023.
FISCAL IMPACT:
Approval of this grant agreement will result in an amount not to exceed $1,064,712 in funding from HUD for the CoC Program. An 18%
County match of $58,821 is required and budgeted.
BACKGROUND:
In 2013 and 2014, Cost of Homelessness study looked at Contra Costa Health Services (CCHS) and reported that 12% of our system's
homeless utilizers account for 71% of healthcare costs (over $32 million) at an average cost of $80,000/per person, per year. This translates to
398 unduplicated homeless individuals, with highest costs for inpatient hospital stays and mental health services, many of whom are chronically
homeless. Research shows that costs can be reduced by nearly $50,000 per person when placed in permanent supportive housing.
The CoC builds on the successes of CCHS in permanent supportive housing projects, which spans 20 years and is considerable in every aspect
including outreach and assessment to housing placement and retention. CCHS oversees the referral process, leasing of units, and consumer
services. This includes case management, coordination of supportive services, administering the housing application process, and assistance with
housing information.
On June 8, 2021, the Board of Supervisors approved Grant Agreement #29-822-3 to pay the County in an amount not to exceed $1,064,712 to
provide permanent supportive housing and support services for homeless individuals for the period December 1, 2021 through November 30,

BACKGROUND: (CONT'D)
On May 8, 2018, the Board of Supervisors approved Amendment No. 2 to the MISA (#23-274-14) to include additional Insyst support and
maintenance services and increase the payment limit by $247,500, from $1,900,000 to a new payment limit of $2,147,500, with no change

maintenance services for the ShareCare System and extend the termination date through December 31, 2024. The delay in processing the
renewal is due to administrative delays associated with establishing the final renewal documents. The renewal has been approved by County
Counsel.
CONSEQUENCE OF NEGATIVE ACTION:

could negatively affect billing and services provided by the Behavioral Health Division.

RECOMMENDATION(S):
APPROVE and AUTHORIZE the Health Services Director, or designee, to execute on behalf of the County, Contract Amendment/Extension
Agreement #23-719-1 with Microsoft Corporation, a corporation, effective August 2, 2022, to amend Contract #23-719, to increase the payment
limit by $1,277,657, from $1,140,911 to a new payment limit of $2,418,568, and to extend the term end date from December 31, 2022, to June
30, 2023, for professional services for network security projects, for the Health Services Information Technology Unit.
FISCAL IMPACT:
Approval of this amendment will result in additional expenditures of up to $1,277,657 for the extended 6-month period and will be fully funded
as budgeted by the department in FY 2022-23, by Hospital Enterprise Fund I revenues. (No rate increase)
BACKGROUND:
In 2004, The Contra Costa County Health Services Department (HSD) started using the Active Directory to manage their network. However,
during the building phase, a design/decision flaw occurred; the design team selected to use the domain ccchsd.gov. Unfortunately, this domain is
not owned or controlled by HSD. That was acceptable when the HSD's systems did not connect to other health systems and the state. Not
owning this domain means HSD cannot buy security certificates externally to authenticate users and businesses; identifying whether the
connection is secure is not within HSD's capability. To rectify this, HSD repeatedly inquired with the Federal department responsible for .gov to
no avail.
In 2017, the Contra Costa County Purchasing Department signed the Microsoft Master Services Agreement #U8794987 on behalf of Contra
Costa County for its Health Services Department, effective December 12, 2017. This agreement will remain in effect until terminated.
On June 22, 2021, the Board of Supervisors approved Contract #23-719 with Microsoft for professional services (Active Directory Migration
Service) regarding HSD’s migration from ccchsd.gov to a new domain it controls and owns to modernize HSD’s security infrastructure to
increase its network resilience to cyber intrusion. Microsoft is the software developer; uniquely qualified to support the lengthy and complex
process and was (therefore) granted a sole-source status for the contract.

BACKGROUND: (CONT'D)
Approval of Contract #26-790-5 will allow this contractor to continue providing services through January 31, 2023. The delay with bringing
this contract request to the Board was due to on-going negotiations between the department and the contractor.
CONSEQUENCE OF NEGATIVE ACTION:

RECOMMENDATION(S):
APPROVE and AUTHORIZE the Health Services Director, or designee, to execute on behalf of the County Contract #23-681-2 with Well
Health, Inc., a corporation, in an amount not to exceed $578,094, for the continuance of license and use of Well Health’s patient engagement
application for the period from May 20, 2022, through May 19, 2023.
FISCAL IMPACT:
Approval of this contract will result in annual expenditures of up to $578,094 and will be funded as budgeted by the department in FY 2022-23,
by American Rescue Plan Act allocations. (No rate increase)
BACKGROUND:
Before contracting with Well Health, Inc. in May 2020, the patient engagement system utilized by Contra Costa Health Services (CCHS)
processed batches daily. As such, Contra Costa Health Services (CCHS) was only able to outreach to patients daily. WellApp, a patient
engagement application, solves this by providing built-in real-time integration within Epic. WellApp is a HIPAA-compliant messaging and
patient engagement platform that connects healthcare patient staff and patients on their existing text and messaging applications. Thus, allowing
case managers, providers, and others the ability to directly engage a single patient, a patient cohort, or our entire patient population. The past
tool caused delays in patient outreach during the COVID-19 pandemic. Since using WellApp, CCHS has strived for better communication
which helps to improve patient outcomes.
On April 28, 2020, the Board of Supervisors approved Contract #23-681, with Well Health, Inc. in the amount of $198,400 for the provision of
their WellApp, patient engagement application including, software licensing and support, for the period from May 1, 2020 through April 30,
2021.
On January 18, 2022, the Board of Supervisors approved Contract #23-681-1 with Well Health, Inc. in the amount of $578,094 for the provision
of their WellApp, patient engagement application including, software licensing and support, for the period from May 1, 2021 through May 19,
2022.
Approval of Contract #23-681-2 allows the contractor to continue providing services through May 19, 2023. The delay in bringing this renewal
request to the Board, is due to administrative delays associated with obtaining the final renewal documents from the contractor.

BACKGROUND:
The County has been contracting with Bay Area Community Resources, Inc., since March 2012 to provide SAPT services for offenders referred
through the AB 109 criminal justice realignment program in West Contra Costa County.

RECOMMENDATION(S):
REFER to the Internal Operations Committee the establishment of an Ad Hoc Arts Council Steering Committee to guide an arts and cultural
planning public engagement process and the procurement or establishment of an Arts Council for the county.
FISCAL IMPACT:
There is no fiscal impact.
BACKGROUND:
On March 29, 2022, the County Board of Supervisors dissolved the Arts and Culture Commission of Contra Costa County (also known as
AC5) and directed County Administration staff to procure or establish a public-private partnership Arts Council for the county. (D.5)
The AC5 was established in 1994 to advise the Board of Supervisors in matters and issues relevant to arts and culture; to advance the arts in a
way that promotes communication, education, appreciation, and collaboration throughout Contra Costa County; to preserve, celebrate, and share
the arts and culture of the many diverse ethnic groups who live in Contra Costa County; to create partnerships with business and government;
and to increase communications and understanding between all citizens through art. Most importantly, the mission of the Commission was to
promote arts and culture as a vital element in the quality of life for all citizens of Contra Costa County.
While AC5’s work was instrumental in the development and support of numerous vital programs and initiatives over the years, the
organizational structure was ultimately deemed not as constructive to the mission as a public-private partnership Arts Council could be.
County Administration staff is currently in the process of soliciting a consultant to assist with a robust and inclusive public engagement and
arts/culture planning process. It is recommended that an Ad Hoc Arts Council Steering Committee be formed to help guide the public
engagement process and provide input on efforts to procure or establish an Arts Council.
Specifically, the Ad Hoc Steering Committee’s role is to guide the arts and cultural planning process through an inclusive community
engagement, provide input and collaboration with County staff and consultants on Arts Council procurement or establishment process; ensure
diversity, equity, and inclusion throughout the process and outcomes, and listen to the community.

County
Subject:Referral to the Board of Supervisors’ Internal Operations Committee the Establishment of an Ad Hoc Arts Council Steering
Committee
BACKGROUND: (CONT'D)
Staff recommends that the Ad Hoc Steering Committee be composed of up to 12 members who represent the geographic and demographic
diversity of the county and include:
Former Contra Costa Arts & Culture Commissioners and Managing Directors
Members of local arts and culture commissions/committees/foundations
Artists and representatives of local arts and culture organizations
Municipalities and Chambers of Commerce leaders
School District Representatives and leaders of education
Black, Indigenous and People of Color
After its formation, the Ad Hoc Steering Committee will meet regularly with the consultant and County staff to receive reports on
the public engagement and cultural planning progress and provide input and guidance. The Ad Hoc Steering Committee will be
dissolved once an organization is established as the Arts Council for the county.
CONSEQUENCE OF NEGATIVE ACTION:
The arts and cultural planning public engagement process and the procurement or establishment of an Arts Council for the County will not
receive sufficient input and guidance from community arts leaders and stakeholders.
RECOMMENDATION(S):
RECEIVE notice of adjustment in compensation paid to members of the Board of Supervisors, showing the 1.8 percent salary increase for
Board members effective July 1, 2022, as required by Ordinance 2019-11.
FISCAL IMPACT:
Receipt of the notice has no fiscal impact.
BACKGROUND:
On April 16, 2019, the Board of Supervisors adopted Ordinance No. 2019-11, linking the base salary for members of the Board of Supervisors
to the salary of Superior Court judges. The ordinance provides that from and after January 1, 2021, Supervisors receive 65% of judges’ salary.
This includes the increases, at the same time and in the same percentage, that the judges receive, so that a base salary of 65% of Contra Costa
County Superior Court judges’ salary is maintained. Ordinance No. 2019-11 requires that for all adjustments to base salary occurring after
January 1, 2021, a “notice of adjustment in compensation paid to members of the board of supervisors” shall appear on the agenda of a regular
meeting of the Board of Supervisors at least ten (10) days prior to the date such adjustment is implemented. Each such adjustment will have the
same effective date as the corresponding salary adjustment for the Contra Costa County Superior Court judges.

RECOMMENDATION(S):
APPROVE and AUTHORIZE the Health Services Director, or designee, to execute on behalf of the County Contract #23-703 with
CoverMyMeds LLC, a limited liability company, to provide a hosted formulary platform, for the Contra Costa Regional Medical Center
(CCRMC) and Contra Costa Health Centers at no cost to the County for the period from August 2, 2022 through August 3, 2026.
FISCAL IMPACT:
There is no fiscal impact for this action.
BACKGROUND:
This contract meets the needs of Contra Costa Regional Medical Center (CCRMC) and Contra Costa Health Center patients by providing
contractors CoverMyMeds ePA, a hosted formulary platform that automates the prior authorization (PA) process in Epic, CCRMC’s electronic
health records system. This solution also includes CoverMyMeds RTPB RxBC applications, which help increase the performance of CCRMC’s
current secured messaging platform, Superscripts, and add MyChart functionality, which allows patients to track their PAs. These
improvements align with CCRMC’s quest to improve patient care and satisfaction.
In 2014, after the review of vendors who provide electronic prior authorization solutions, CoverMyMeds was chosen by the Department as
providing the best solution. Further, other than costs paid to other software vendors for setting up interfaces to CoverMyMeds, this is a no-cost
solution negotiated by the State of California on behalf of County Health Plans to streamline the PA process for Medi-Cal Rx members. The
contract obligates the County to indemnify CoverMyMeds against third-party claims arising out of the information provided to CoverMyMeds
by the County or County’s use of information furnished by CoverMyMeds, except to the extent CoverMyMeds’ gross negligence or willful
misconduct caused the claim. This contract limits CoverMyMeds’ liability to $250,000.

per net acre. The units (studio, one-bedroom, and two-bedroom) are proposed within two three-story and two four-story buildings located
toward the site’s interior. The buildings would be U-shaped, with amenities (pool and spa, bocce court, outdoor seating, barbecues, etc.)
provided in the center courtyards. The four-story buildings would also be outfitted with rooftop decks. Covered parking is proposed around
the perimeter and a small private park is proposed at the site’s extreme northern end adjacent to the freeway. The primary access would be
from Pacheco Boulevard, with secondary access from Blum Road.
The subject site is within the Pacheco/North Concord Priority Production Area (PPA) designated by the Board of Supervisors in December
2019 and subsequently adopted by the Association of Bay Area Governments (ABAG) Executive Board. PPAs are a pilot program
developed by the ABAG/Metropolitan Transportation Commission as part of Plan Bay Area 2050 aimed at supporting industrial clusters
and promoting job creation close to affordable housing. Non-industrial uses are allowed within PPAs, but their development should support
the overarching purpose of the PPA and not hinder industrial growth. The subject site is on the boundary of the approximately
seven-square-mile PPA. The proposed project would bring affordable housing opportunities closer to jobs without intruding upon the large
swaths of industrial land that are anticipated as the primary job-generating areas within the PPA.
Staff recommends authorizing the GPA process for the following reasons:
The County’s Regional Housing Needs Allocation (RHNA) for the upcoming 6th Housing Cycle is 7,610 units 58 percent of which
must be in the moderate-, low-, or very-low-income categories. The project proposes 47 deed-restricted low-affordability units,
satisfying approximately 4 percent of the County’s 1,194-unit low-income allocation.
The project is consistent with General Plan policies encouraging development of infill sites where urban services are already
available.
The site is proximate to uses that support residential development. It is within walking distance of a preschool, post office, and the
Pacheco Transit Hub, and a short drive (approximately two miles or less) from Hidden Valley Elementary School and adjacent
parks, Kaiser Hospital Martinez, and several shopping centers in Martinez and Pleasant Hill.
The site has good local and regional accessibility, as it is approximately one-quarter mile from the Interstate 680/State Route 4
interchange and located along two County Connection bus routes that each connect to BAR T and Martinez Amtrak.
Staff notes that the project is extremely close to Interstate 680, with Building A proposed within feet of the freeway right-of-way. Building
A’s height combined with its closeness to the freeway may be visually intrusive, but more importantly, the entire project likely would
expose residents to toxic air contaminants emitted from the freeway. This is anticipated to become less significant over time as electric
vehicles gain in popularity and emissions decline. To address the interim period, staff recommends that this GPA authorization include
direction for the project applicant/owner to:
Provide superior air filtration (MERV 13 equivalent or higher) within the buildings.
Notify future residents of the potential health risks associated with living adjacent to a freeway.
Explore options for providing additional setback for Building A.
Staff notes that the project proposes to line the Pacheco Boulevard frontage with parking, which is generally considered aesthetically
displeasing in terms of urban design. Landscaping and other improvements depicted in Attachment A may not provide adequate mitigation.
Staff recommends that this GPA authorization include direction for the project to provide a visually appealing frontage that enhances the
Pacheco Boulevard streetscape.
Finally, staff emphasizes that a vote by the Board of Supervisors to authorize initiation of the GPA process merely indicates that the matter
is appropriate for further consideration and should not be misconstrued as an approval of the proposed project.
CONSEQUENCE OF NEGATIVE ACTION:
If the Board decides not to authorize initiation of the GPA process, then an application to amend the General Plan cannot be filed and the
subject site will retain its CO land use designation. The proposed residential project would not be able to proceed.

Project Description
The Project, a 305-unit apartment home development in unincorporated Martinez area on 4961 Pacheco
Boulevard. The proposed project consists of the following:
1. General Plan amendment: The applicant requests to amend the Land Use Map of the Land Use
Element by changing the subject property’s existing Commercial (CO) to Multi-Family Very
High Density-Special (MS) designation.
2. Rezoning: The applicant requests to rezone the subject property from Commercial (CO) to a new
Planned Unit District (P-1) zoning district to allow the rezoning of the subject 6.84-acre property.
3. Major subdivision: The applicant requests approval of a vesting tentative map to consolidate the
subject four parcels into one new residential parcel.
4. Final development Plan: The applicant requests approval of a final development plan to allow for
the construction of the Project, consisting of the following primary elements:
• The applicant proposes to construct a 305 apartment homes. The development will also
provide common space areas for the new residents, including four small private parks and
open space encompassing the remainder of the property not utilized for residences,
access, parking or drainage. The apartment homes will be 3 and 4-story, for rent
apartment residential units, and will be developed in 4 buildings encompassing private
recreational courtyards and roof top recreation facilities. The 305 units will be a mix of
studio, one and two-bedroom apartment residences ranging in living area from
approximately 360 square feet (Studio) up to 860 square feet, (2 bedroom) and with
maximum heights of 30 feet for 3 story building and 40 feet for four story buildings. The
buildings will have a mix of smooth plaster and horizontal wood siding, brick accent
areas along with numerous windows for natural lighting, and alternating colors and flat
roofs and overhangs to reduce the bulk of the buildings.
• Off-street parking for the proposed subdivision is provided by a total of 416 spaces of
which 50% are covered covered surface parking spaces for the residences and includes 76
guest parking spaces, 42 EV Charging spaces along with required accessible parking

2
spaces at each of the four buildings. No garage spaces are provided. The site will be
accessed through private driveways from Pacheco Blvd. and Blum Road (Applicant is
abandoning access from Hanson Ct.).
• The project will provide 47 deed-restricted low-affordability units (15% of total projecy)
provided by the proposed project. The proposed breakdown of affordable unit types is 29
- one bedroom units, 15 - studios units and 4 - two bedroom units), in support of the
County’s required Regional Housing Needs Allocation for low-, very low- and moderate-
affordability units.
• The proposed project also includes onsite grading to create a level building site for the
four apartment home buildings and landscaping throughout the project site for site
beautification purposes, common areas, and bioretention areas. The grading is balanced
onsite.
• The applicant has submitted a preliminary Storm Water Control Plan that provides an
underground storm drain system with a bioretention basins and permeable paving
systems. The applicant proposes to tie this bioretention basin to the existing storm drain
system in Blum Road, with the storm water being filtered before it is discharged to the
offsite storm drain system.
Site/Area Description:
The Project site is an approximately 7.6-acre lot located at the county boundary near Arnold Drive and
Pacheco Blvd. in unincorporated Martinez area and is approx. 330 yards from the new Pacheco Transit
Center located to the south on Blum Road. The site is surrounded by a mix of single-family and multi-
family residential of properties, as well as multiple commercial parcels. The property and its surrounding
area slope gently from north to south, with the exception of the hilltop at the northern of the subject
property. Within the local area, there is a post office and a day care/pre-school located across the street on
Pacheco Blvd., Highway 4 is located approximately 1500 feet south of the property, and the eastern side
of the property is directly adjacent to the elevated section of I-680.
General Plan:
The Project site is located within a mixture of land use designations range from M-29, C, CO R-B and R-
7. As part of the proposed project, the applicant requests approval of a General Plan amendment to
change the designation of the Project site to a Multi-Family Very High Density Density-Special (MS)
designation.
Zoning:
The Project site is located within a mixture of land use designations range from M-29, C, CO R-B and R-
7 zoning districts. As part of the proposed project, the applicant requests approval to rezone the Project
site to a project-specific Planned Unit District (P-1).
General Plan Consistency:
The current General Plan land use designation for the subject property is Commercial (CO). The project
involves an amendment to the General Plan designation from CO to Multi-Family Very High Density-
Special (MS). The intent of the MS General Plan land use designation is to promote the orderly
3
establishment of high-density residential development. This designation allows between 45.0 and 99.9
multiple-family units per net.
This designation allows between 45.0 and 99.9 multiple-family units per net acre. Sites can range up to
967 square feet. With an average of 2.0 persons per unit, population densities would normally range from
about 90 to about 200 persons per acre. The proposed 305-unit project of the 6.84-acre property would
result in a density of 45 units per net acre, which falls well within the density range for the proposed MS
designation. Furthermore, the project involves the construction of a new multi-family development
including 305 new apartment residences, which is consistent with the uses allowed in MS.
The project is also consistent with the following Housing Goal and Policy of the County’s Housing
Element.
Goal 6: Provide adequate sites through appropriate land use and zoning designations to accommodate
the County’s share of regional housing needs.
Policy 7.3: Encourage P-1 zoning areas with concentrations of applicants seeking variances.
The County’s General Plan also provides goals and policies that promote and encourage projects, such as
this subdivision project within the Bay Point area. Goal 6 of the County’s Housing Element identifies the
need to provide adequate sites with the appropriate land use and zoning designations to accommodate the
County’s share of regional housing. The project will be providing 305 residences on a property that is
underutilized, adjacent to other properties with residences, and within close proximity to public spaces,
public transit and commercial uses.
Policy 7.3 of the County’s Housing Element encourages P-1 zoning in areas with concentrations of
variances sought. The project includes the rezoning of the property to P-1, which is consistent with the
General Plan Land Use designation of MM. The variance to the lot area for P-1 (where a minimum of five
acres is required) is also consistent with properties within the County that are less than five acres and have
been rezoned to P-1. Overall, the 305 residential apartment units complies with the proposed MS General
Plan land use designation and applicable General Plan policies.

PROJECT NARRATIVE
PROJECT NARRATIVE
The Gateway Apartment Homes have been designed to provide the County and residents of this future development
with a cutting-edge pedestrian/public transit oriented community within a transitional area that is moving towards more
residential use. The Gateway Apartment Homes will provide a housing option that will address the unmet need of high-
quality affordable housing at a variety of income levels and price points in the community. The development will activate
the street frontage of a dormant property, integrating it into with the newer residential uses to the west along Pacheco
Blvd. and directly to the adjacent property on the east and northsides. The development will serve as a transitional
buffer between the commercial area and the adjacent residential neighborhoods. The immediate neighborhood has a post
office, day care and the Pacheco Transit center immediately across the street and one block away.
The building layout and landscape design take a thoughtful approach to the site by gently blending this urban development
with the natural elements of the property while e Corporatio g the new Pacheco Blvd. road alignment and improvement
plan.
The project will incorporate cutting-edge energy efficiency and green design principles. This will include water
conservation methods and compliance with the stringent California Green Energy Code requirements. The development
will offer best practices in storm water management. The project incorporates 15% Afforfable unites into the project,
including ADA-accessible ground-floor living units. All exterior lighting will be ‘Dark Sky’ compliant light fixtures to
mitigate potential light pollution.
The project proposes 305 with the ability to be increased to 321(based on parking) residential units. The unit layouts
within the project are designed to highlight a sense of openness and contemporary elegance. The interior plans have their
own unique architectural elements and materials. Extensive terraces and balconies on all levels have been introduced to
create an indoor-outdoor living feel and use of space. The architectural style and character of the design derive materials
and colors from a local vernacular while acknowledging a transitional role between commercial and residential
neighborhoods. The design uses a variety of materials and light to medium colors to help minimize the scale of the new
residences. The design incorporates varying sizes of windows, doors, façade articulation on all sides, second floor step
backs and well-placed landscaping to appropriately scale the building creating a harmonious transition from commercial to
the existing multi-family residential areas.
GPA REQUEST: P-1 (PUD)
The project property is bounded by M-29 zoning on several adjacent parcels, across Pacheco Blvd. – the Townhomes at
Arnold drive and Pacheco Boulevard. Housing and affordable housing are in critical demand throughout California and
particularly this area of Contra Costa County. This project proposal would provide 305 units. The below-market-rate
(BMR) units would be at least 15%. The variety of the size of units will also provide several units to be affordable by
design. This project approaches incomes and price point because of unit size variation that is uncommon to standard
market rate driven projects. This is a unique approach to make the project a unified community blending all income levels
into natural cohabitation. In other words, this project would not be ‘the low income’ or expensive residential
neighborhood, but a real neighborhood of people from all walks of life creating social equity.
The project proposed to merge all of the parcels into one new parcel. Thus creating a unique opportunity to provide a
substantial supply of for rent housing in an area that needs housing close to transit to help activate the Pacheco Transit
Center closer to its potential role.
Recreation amenities are crucial assets to making a successful neighborhood environment with robust indoor end
outdoors facilities. The rooftop amenities offer vast spectacular views of Mt. Diablo and the surround valley while provide
recreation and social gathering space. The on-site outdoor recreation courts, pool, spa, walking paths and indoor
gymnasium provide much needed assets for this transitional area.

RECOMMENDATION(S):
AUTHORIZE the discharge from accountability for the collection of taxes, penalty, interest, or any other charge pertaining thereto, owing on
various delinquent Secured (Redemption) and Unsecured tax bills, in accordance with California Revenue and Taxation Code Sections 2611.1
and 2923; California Government Code Sections 25257, 25258, 25259; and Administrative Bulletin 207.7 Section VII. Such discharge would
not release the person(s) named herein from the payments of any amounts that are due and owing.
FISCAL IMPACT:
None. Such discharge does not release these persons named from the payment of any amounts, which are due, and owing.
BACKGROUND:
The Treasurer-Tax Collector's office has determined that the charges associated with these tax bills are no longer recoverable due to one or more
of the following reasons: the accounts are being discharged in Bankruptcy; the business is closed according to the Board of Equalization,
Secretary of State or as determined by the County Assessor; the taxes are beyond statute of limitations for seizure and sale; the Tax Sale
Identification Number is greater than 30 years old; all collection attempts have been unsuccessful; the assessee cannot be located or collected
upon due to extenuating circumstances; the likelihood of collection does not warrant the expense involved. Based on the stated facts, the County
Treasurer-Tax Collector requests the discharge of accountability for those accounts and parcels determined to be uncollectible.

County
Subject:Request for and Authorization of Discharge of Accountability for Delinquent Taxes Determined to be Uncollectable
BACKGROUND: (CONT'D)
A listing of those persons having failed to pay their delinquent Secured or Unsecured taxes, penalty, interest and other related charges in
the aggregate sum of $5,122,564.07 is maintained in the Treasurer-Tax Collector's Office. Such discharge does not release these persons
named from the payment of any amounts, which are due, and owing.
CONSEQUENCE OF NEGATIVE ACTION:
Approval of the recommended action will allow the Treasurer-Tax Collector to identify these accounts from our computer system as
discharged of accountability thereby creating: An accurate inventory of recoverable accounts; a more manageable case load for the staff;
elimination of redundant research by the staff; a better work distribution to staff.

RECOMMENDATION(S):
APPROVE and AUTHORIZE the Auditor-Controller to issue a refund of overpayment of documentary transfer tax totaling $990 to Trevor D.
Tapscott.
FISCAL IMPACT:
The recommendation will result in a reduction of $990 to the County General Fund from the 2021-2022 fiscal year.
BACKGROUND:
The County Clerk-Recorder collected payment of documentary transfer tax that the customer erroneously stated in the amount listed below:
Trevor D. Tapscott DOC 2022-0102707
2930 Domingo Ave #117 $990.00
Berkeley, CA 94705
CONSEQUENCE OF NEGATIVE ACTION:
Failure to reimburse the party would cause him to pay more than legally required for documentary transfer tax.

RECOMMENDATION(S):
APPROVE and AUTHORIZE the Sheriff-Coroner, or designee, to execute contracts with the following agencies for County's placement of
participants in the Sheriff's Custody Work Release Program for the term July 1, 2022 through June 30, 2024: City of Antioch, City of
Brentwood, City of Clayton, City of Concord, Town of Danville, East Bay Regional Park District, City of Hercules, Town of Moraga, City of
Pittsburg, City of San Pablo, Contra Costa County Public Works Department and State of California Department of Transportation.
FISCAL IMPACT:
Cost of housing inmates in custody is reduced. Historically, some program fees were collected from individuals, based on their ability to pay.
Program fees are currently suspended due to a moratorium placed on certain fees by the Board of Supervisors.
BACKGROUND:
Since the early 1980s, work alternative or work-for-credit programs have been utilized in county jails to provide work experience, inmate
rehabilitation, and community restitution for the societal costs of criminal activity. Specifically, Penal Code section 4024.2 provides for a work
release program, which our County has operated since 1983.

County
Subject:Work Release Program
BACKGROUND: (CONT'D)
Inmates accepted into the program provide public service labor at no cost to the County while relieving housing costs associated with
incarceration. Assigned inmates report to work sites, perform tasks that might not otherwise be funded, and satisfy court judgments.
CONSEQUENCE OF NEGATIVE ACTION:
The consequence of a negative action on this request would reduce the number of approved work sites by approximately 75 percent.
CHILDREN'S IMPACT STATEMENT:
None.
