FISCAL IMPACT: The $2,000,000 Innovation Fund derives from a second Board allocation of Measure X sales tax revenue. Seven Phase 2 planning grants totaling $1,962,455 were awarded by the Board on March 25, 2025, leaving an unallocated Innovation Fund balance of $166,808. Augmenting the Support4Recovery grant by $65,000 would reduce the unallocated balance to $101,808. BACKGROUND: On March 25, 2025, the Board of Supervisors awarded, among six other Innovation Fund grants, a grant of $335,830 to Support4Recovery (S4R) to implement in FY25/26 a 12-bed Level 3 sober living program for Spanish speaking men and women, expanding on S4R’s Hispanic Outreach Program currently in progress. The sober living program promises to enhance outreach to increase awareness and participation in Spanish-language addiction services among the Hispanic inmate population, particularly focusing on individuals who are completing time in jail and are at risk of homelessness and provide seamless coordination with external clinical providers. The program goals are to increase access to treatment and sober living, promote recovery and life skills, and reduce recidivism among the Hispanic population. On March 25, Tom Aswad of S4R addressed the Board of Supervisors to request a grant augmentation of $65,000 to address a budget shortfall that identified after the grant application was submitted. S4R’s original grant request relied on a mix of paid and volunteer registered counselors. However, the Fair Labor Standards Act (FLSA) stipulates that volunteers cannot displace regular employees or perform work that would otherwise CONTRA COSTA COUNTY Printed on 7/14/2025Page 1 of 2 powered by Legistar™ File #:25-1347,Version:1 be done by paid employees. To comply with the FLSA, S4R cannot use volunteer counselors as originally planned. S4R’s original and revised project budgets are attached for reference, illustrating those spend categories affected by the FLSA rule. CONSEQUENCE OF NEGATIVE ACTION: Should the Board not approve the recommendation, the Hispanic Recovery Initiative reports that it will be unable to provide separate housing for male and female program participants, which may hinder the program’s effectiveness.

B.Designate an Assistant Auditor-Controller to temporarily discharge the duties of Auditor- Controller pursuant to Government Code Section 24105. FISCAL IMPACT: The Auditor-Controller’s annual salary is $277,057. Total compensation including benefits totals approximately $428,325. Some options for organizing the offices of Auditor-Controller and Treasurer-Tax Collector require voter approval. The Elections Division estimates that the cost of a Countywide election on November 4, 2025, would CONTRA COSTA COUNTY Printed on 7/14/2025Page 1 of 6 powered by Legistar™ File #:25-1348,Version:1 be approximately $1 million, if no other local agencies call an election on that date. BACKGROUND: The Office of Auditor-Controller is currently vacant due to the retirement of Robert Campbell, effective March 30, 2025. The term of office ends January 4, 2027. I.Report on Options for Organizing the Offices of the Auditor-Controller and the Treasurer-Tax Collector A.Available Options Several options for organizing the Offices of the Auditor-Controller and the Treasurer-Tax Collector are available. Four of the options described below require voter approval before the change in organization can occur. 1.Status Quo The offices of Auditor-Controller and Treasurer-Tax Collector currently are elective offices. The offices are elective pursuant to Government Code section 24009(a). (All further statutory references in this report are to the Government Code unless otherwise specified.) No action is required by the Board of Supervisors to keep each office a separate elective office. 2.Consolidate the Offices of Auditor-Controller and Treasurer-Tax Collector into a Single Elective Office Section 24300.5 authorizes the Board to consolidate the offices of Auditor-Controller and Treasurer-Tax Collector into a single elective office titled Office of Auditor-Controller-Treasurer-Tax Collector. How to Consolidate: Board of Supervisors adopts an ordinance consolidating the two offices. Eligibility for Office: The Auditor-Controller-Treasurer-Tax Collector must meet the statutory qualifications to hold both offices. Human Resources has confirmed our currently appointed Treasurer-Tax Collector qualifies to hold the position of Auditor-Controller. 3.Convert the Office of Auditor-Controller from an Elective Office into an Appointive Office Section 24009 authorizes the office of Auditor-Controller to be converted from an elective office into an appointive office, with the Auditor-Controller appointed by the Board of Supervisors. How to Convert: The Board adopts a ballot measure asking voters to decide whether the Auditor-Controller should be appointed by the Board. 4.Convert the Office of Treasurer-Tax Collector from an Elective Office into an Appointive Office Section 24009 authorizes the office of Treasurer-Tax Collector to be converted from an elective office into an appointive office, with the Treasurer-Tax Collector appointed by the Board of Supervisors. CONTRA COSTA COUNTY Printed on 7/14/2025Page 2 of 6 powered by Legistar™ File #:25-1348,Version:1 How to Convert: The Board adopts a ballot measure asking voters to decide whether the Treasurer-Tax Collector should be appointed by the Board. 5.Replace the Elective Office of Auditor-Controller with the Appointive Office of Director of Finance Section 26970 authorizes the elective office of Auditor-Controller to be replaced by the appointive office of Director of Finance. How to Replace: The Board adopts a ballot measure asking voters to decide whether the elective office of Auditor-Controller should be replaced by the appointive office of Director of Finance, with the Director of Finance to be appointed by the Board. Eligibility for Office: The Director of Finance would have to meet the statutory requirements to hold the office of Auditor-Controller. 6.Establish the Office of Director of Finance and Consolidate the Offices of Auditor- Controller and Treasurer-Tax Collector into the New Office Section 26980 authorizes the Office of Director of Finance to be established. If the office is established, the offices of Auditor-Controller and Treasurer-Tax Collector are consolidated into the Office of Director of Finance. The office is either elected or appointed. How to Establish: The Board adopts two ballot measures. One measure asks voters to decide whether the Office of Director of Finance should be established. The second ballot measure asks this question: If the Office of Director of Finance is established, is it an elective office? Eligibility for Office: The Director of Finance must meet the statutory qualifications to hold either the office of Auditor-Controller or the office of Treasurer-Tax Collector. The County currently has a position of County Finance Director in the County Administrator Office. The positions minimum qualifications requires both education of a bachelor’s degree and five years of full-time experience in budget analysis or financial management in a large complex public agency including three years in supervision of professional level staff. B.Statutory Qualifications for Office A person who holds an elective County office must be at least 18 years of age, a citizen of the State of California, and a registered voter of Contra Costa County. The specific statutory qualifications to hold the offices of Auditor-Controller and Treasurer-Tax Collector are described below. Auditor-Controller: To hold the office of Auditor-Controller, a person must meet at least one of the following criteria pursuant to Section 26945: ·Holds a certificate issued by the California Board of Accountancy and has a permit authorizing the person to practice as a certified public accountant. ·Has a baccalaureate degree from an accredited university, college or other four-year institution with a major in accounting, or a business-related degree that includes at least 24 semester units, or equivalent CONTRA COSTA COUNTY Printed on 7/14/2025Page 3 of 6 powered by Legistar™ File #:25-1348,Version:1 quarter units, in accounting-related subjects, including, but not limited to accounting, financial reporting, auditing, and taxation, AND has served within the last five years in a senior fiscal management position in a county, city or other public agency or a non-profit organization, dealing with similar fiscal responsibilities, including, but not limited to, public accounting or auditing responsibilities, for a continuous period of not less than three years. ·Has served as County Auditor, Assistant County Auditor, Chief Deputy County Auditor or an equivalent position for a continuous period of not less than three years. Treasurer-Tax Collector: To hold the office of Treasurer-Tax Collector, a person must meet at least one of the following criteria pursuant to Section 27000.7: ·Has served in a senior financial management position in a county, city, or other public agency dealing with similar financial responsibilities for a continuous period of not less than three years, including, but not limited to, Treasurer, Tax Collector, Auditor, Auditor-Controller, or the chief deputy or an assistant in those offices. ·Has a baccalaureate, masters, or doctoral degree from an accredited college or university in any of the following major fields of study: business administration, public administration, economics, finance, accounting, or a related field, with a minimum of 16 college semester units, or their equivalent, in accounting, auditing, or finance. ·Holds a certificate issued by the California Board of Accountancy and has a permit authorizing that person to practice as, a certified public accountant. ·The person possesses a valid charter issued by the Institute of Chartered Financial Analysts showing the person to be designated a Chartered Financial Analyst, with a minimum of 16 college semester units, or their equivalent, in accounting, auditing, or finance. C.Election Timing and Cost In four of the options described above, an election is necessary for a change in organization. If an election is necessary and the change is approved by the voters, the change cannot go into effect during the current term of an incumbent. The current term of the Treasurer-Tax Collector expires January 4, 2027. If the Board chooses to pursue a reorganization option involving an election, the Board would have to place the measure on the ballot on an established election date. The next election date for a Countywide ballot measure is November 4, 2025. The Board would have to approve a resolution calling for an election and transmit it to the Elections Division no later than August 8, 2025. The Elections Division estimates that the cost of a Countywide election on November 4, 2025, would be approximately $1 million, if no other local agencies call an election on that date. II.Board Actions to Fill the Vacant Office of Auditor-Controller Section 25304 requires the Board to appoint someone to fill the Auditor-Controller vacancy. The person appointed to the office must meet the statutory qualifications for Auditor-Controller, which are specified above. If the Board chooses not to appoint a person to fill the vacant office for the remainder of the term today, the Board could designate an Assistant Auditor-Controller to temporarily discharge the duties of Auditor- CONTRA COSTA COUNTY Printed on 7/14/2025Page 4 of 6 powered by Legistar™ File #:25-1348,Version:1 Controller pursuant to Section 24105. There are two Assistant Auditor-Controllers in the office. If the Board were to designate one of the Assistants to temporarily discharge the Auditor-Controller’s duties, the Board would still have to appoint a person to fill the vacant office for the remainder of the unexpired term. The California Attorney General has concluded that a vacant elective County office must be filled within a “reasonable time” after the vacancy occurs but has not specified what length of time is “reasonable.” Currently one of the two Assistant Auditor-Controllers have expressed interest, and they would qualify for the temporary discharge appoint and not qualify to fill the vacant office of the unexpired term. Interviews for appointment were conducted at the April 1 Board of Supervisors meeting. Two candidates were presented, and both are qualified based on the statutory requirements of the position of Auditor -Controller. If the Board chooses to appoint a candidate, both have completed the Form 700 and fulfilled the required background screening processes to begin the appointment process. One candidate currently resides in the County, while the other would be required to relocate to fulfill the required residency requirements, prolonging the appointment process. III.Listing of Counties with a single elected official for Auditor-Controller and Treasurer-Tax Collector and non-elected Department Head called Director of Finance The following counties have consolidated the offices of Auditor/Controller and Treasurer/Tax Collector into one office with one elected official: Fresno Lassen San Bernadino San Luis Obispo Santa Cruz Sierra Sonoma Tulare Mendocino The following counties have created a non-elected department head called Director of Finance which oversees both Auditor/Controller and Treasurer/Tax Collector functions: Glenn Kings Marin Sacramento Yolo Alpine Mono Santa Clara CONSEQUENCE OF NEGATIVE ACTION: If no action is taken, the Office of the Auditor-Controller would remain vacant.

The independent election and separation of these offices are key parts of the checks and balances built into California's county government system. The independent offices enhance public trust by acting in their unique roles as guardians of funds for the County, cities, schools, and special districts, and by providing independent sources of objective ﬁnancial reporting and statutory compliance. Elected officials are more accountable to the public than appointed officials, and consolidation could reduce this accountability. As an elected official, the auditor- controller is independent from the County's organizational structure, allowing for objective reporting of audit results and ﬁnancial information. As an elected official, the Treasurer-Tax Collector is able to avoid the manipulation of investments and tax enforcement for political purposes. Each office is able to hold the other accountable to comply with the laws and statutes that govern them. Finally, combining the roles might mean that the new director has less specialized expertise in either area, potentially leading to weaker ﬁnancial management. The separate duties and responsibilities of each office, and the laws and statutes that govern them, are very complex and critical to fully understand and implement as intended. Failure to remain current with evolving legislation, economic developments and ﬁnancial markets can lead to signiﬁcant loss, disrupted services and delayed projects. My predecessor, the late William J. Pollaceck, would share with me his concern that some day after he had left office the Board of Supervisors would bring up the subject of combining the Auditor-Controller with the Treasurer-Tax Collector and, worse yet, making the new office an appointed one. He saw this as a power grab to the potential detriment of the public, leading to possible political abuse and ﬁnancial corruption. Today, I share that concern as well. As the ninth largest county in the State, the citizens of Contra Costa County should be able to offer qualiﬁed candidates for elected office. I urge you to give the people enough time to consider doing so. In the meantime, let’s keep the status quo! Respectfully, Russell Watts Former Treasurer-Tax Collector (2011-2023) P.S. I hope all of you and your families are well. 1025 ESCOBAR STREET MARTINEZ, CA 94553CONTRA COSTA COUNTY Legislation Details (With Text) File #: Version:125-1349 Name: Status:Type:Discussion Item Agenda Ready File created:In control:1/8/2025 BOARD OF SUPERVISORS On agenda:Final action:4/15/2025 Title:CONSIDER accepting the monthly update on the activities and oversight of the County's Head Start Program, and APPROVE the Head Start and Early Head Start 2025-2026 Admission Priorities and Selection Criteria and Recruitment and Enrollment Plan, and provide guidance.

Key Words: Nutrition Information Memorandum To: All Head Start Recipients Subject: Promoting Healthy Eating and Nutrition for Head Start Children and Families Information: Head Start programs play a vital role in supporting healthy eating and nutrition for enrolled children and families. Access to healthy foods and other nutrition services helps children grow, develop, and learn. Good nutrition is essential for brain development and provides children with the energy needed to stay active and focused throughout the program day. A balanced diet helps strengthen a child’s immune system, reducing the risk of infections and illnesses. It also prevents childhood obesity, which can lead to chronic diseases like heart disease and diabetes. This Information Memorandum (IM) affirms the critical role of Head Start programs in ensuring children and families have access to healthy food and comprehensive nutrition services. It also includes an overview of relevant statutory and regulatory requirements and reminds programs of the resources and partnerships available to support robust nutrition services for children and families. Lastly, this IM provides tips to foster enthusiasm for healthy eating in early learning environments and encourages Head 2 /8 Start programs to use innovative strategies to promote health and nutrition. An appendix of additional resources is included to guide programs in their efforts. BACKGROUND: Head Start programs play an important role in achieving healthy outcomes for children and families. Nutrition services can be particularly impactful for families who experience food insecurity or live in communities where affordable, healthy food is less available. Research indicates that Head Start children are more likely to receive dental checkups and have healthy eating patterns than non-participants. They also have lower Body Mass Index (BMI) scores and are less likely to be overweight compared to children in other non-parental care (Lee et al., 2013). Obese, overweight, or underweight children who participate in Head Start have a significantly healthier BMI by kindergarten (Lumeng, et al., 2015). Additionally, Head Start graduates have better health status as adults than non-graduates; they are 7 percent less likely to be in poor health as adults than their siblings who did not attend Head Start (Johnson, 2010; Deming, 2009). The Head Start Program Performance Standards (the Performance Standards) prioritize nutrition services that are culturally and developmentally appropriate and meet each child’s individual needs, including those with disabilities, allergies, and special dietary needs (45 CFR §1302.44(a)(1)). In doing so, programs help children experience a variety of nutritious foods, provide mealtime opportunities for socialization and enrichment, and support families in learning about the importance of healthy foods at home. Head Start programs promote access to healthy food and nutrition in many ways. This includes, but is not limited to: Increasing access to and availability of healthy foods for children and families in classrooms, during home visits or group socialization activities, and during parent and family engagement activities. Supporting families with pregnancy, post-partum, and breastfeeding, as well as ensuring the nutritional needs of infants and toddlers are fully met. Helping families access affordable, healthy food options at home. Providing families with education on nutrition and the importance of physical activity. Reducing administrative burden and supporting families to get connected with other nutrition-related services for which they might be eligible, such as the Supplemental Nutrition Assistance Program (SNAP) and the Special Supplemental Assistance Program for Women, Infants, and Children (WIC). Using registered dietitians or nutritionists to support the implementation of Head Start requirements for healthy nutrition. Making safe drinking water available to children during the program day. Providing materials and equipment for center-based or home-based learning activities related to healthy eating, such as supplies to create gardens, greenhouses, and Indigenous seed hubs. All Head Start grant recipients and their delegate agencies are required to participate in the Child and Adult Care Food Program (CACFP). The CACFP is a federal United States Department of Agriculture (USDA) program that provides reimbursements for nutritious meals and snacks to eligible children enrolled in participating programs, including Head Start programs. Implementing the CACFP meal patterns helps to ensure children receive a variety of nutrient-dense foods, including whole grains, a variety of fresh fruits, and vegetables, all while reducing intake of ultra-processed foods, added sugar intake, and saturated fats. While CACFP mandates low-fat options, including low-fat and fat-free dairy products for children over the age of 2, emerging evidence (Venn-Watson 2023; Vanderhout, et al., 2020) suggests whole, full-fat dairy supports child development. Head Start programs can explore offering whole dairy where funding allows. We will support implementation of possible updated guidelines while meeting current standards. CACFP also provides resources such as the seasonal buying guide to promote in-season local produce, which is often full of flavor and nutrients, less reliant on chemicals and pesticides, and supports sustainability and local farmers. Additional information on CACFP is provided in more detail below. 3 /8 Head Start programs are also required to actively collaborate with parents and families, including expectant families, on healthy eating practices (45 CFR §1302.46). Programs also engage parents to discuss their child’s nutritional status and provide opportunities for families to learn about preparing healthy food at home. Overview of Relevant Statutory and Regulatory Requirements Nutrition services have been a hallmark of the Head Start program since its inception. This is reflected in the Head Start Act (the Act) and the Performance Standards, which detail program requirements related to food and nutrition. For instance, Section 638 of the Act identifies nutrition as a key activity of the funding provided to Head Start agencies. Section 648 of the Act requires programs to have qualified staff who can promote the importance of healthy, nutritional choices in daily classroom and family routines to prevent childhood obesity. The Act mentions nutrition services in other areas as well, as an essential part of comprehensive Head Start services. The Performance Standards further outline what it means to provide nutrition services in Head Start programs. These requirements generally fall into two categories: those that occur when children are present in the teaching and learning environment, and those that focus on engaging with families. Nutrition Requirements for the Teaching and Learning Environment Subpart D of the Performance Standards focuses on the health and mental health requirements for Head Start programs. It states that programs must provide high-quality health, oral health, mental health, and nutrition services that are developmentally, culturally, and linguistically appropriate and that will support each child’s growth and school readiness (45 CFR §1302.40). This includes serving foods that are familiar to children as well as new foods. There are various requirements within this subpart that elaborate on what is expected of Head Start programs in the area of nutrition services: All Head Start programs must design and implement nutrition services that meet dietary needs of each child, including children with special dietary needs and children with disabilities, to support their growth and school readiness (45 CFR §1302.44(a)(1)). To ensure up-to-date child health status, Head Start programs must identify each child’s nutritional health needs, considering available health information such as special dietary requirements, food allergies, and community nutrition issues (45 CFR §1302.42(b)(4)). The Performance Standards at 45 CFR §1302.44 detail specific child nutrition requirements, which include: Ensuring each child in a program that operates for fewer than six hours per day receives meals and snacks that provide one third to one half of the child’s daily nutritional needs. Ensuring each child in a program that operates for six hours or more per day receives meals and snacks that provide one half to two thirds of the child’s daily nutritional needs. Serving three- to five-year-olds meals and snacks that conform to USDA requirements and are high in nutrients and low in saturated fat, sugar, and salt. Expect possible future updates to nutrition guidelines to reflect the latest science, including providing whole, full-fat dairy for child development. Making sure that all children receive a nourishing breakfast by providing nutrient rich foods for children who did not eat breakfast before they arrived at their Head Start center. Providing appropriate healthy snacks and meals to each child during group socialization activities in the home-based option. Promoting breastfeeding for mothers who wish to breastfeed during program hours. This may include offering facilities to properly store and handle breast milk and making accommodations when needed. 4 /8 Connecting families to community lactation consultants or counselors when they choose breastfeeding but need support to be successful. Subpart C of the Performance Standards focuses on the teaching and learning environment specifically when children are in center-based and family child care programs. The Performance Standards ensure that mealtimes are structured and used as learning opportunities. Language skills are strengthened through social conversations and fine motor abilities are tested in handling utensils or serving aides. The social skills involved in the back and forth of mealtime conversation also help children navigate friendships, turn- taking, and self-regulation. Programs must implement snack and mealtimes in a manner that supports children’s development and learning (45 CFR §1302.31(e)(2)): Family style dining – when children and teachers sit together for a meal or snack – is encouraged when developmentally appropriate to support consistency between home and school by replicating the experience of eating together as a family. Family style dining also offers a chance for staff to model healthy food choices and the importance of nutrition. Head Start programs are encouraged to use family style meals when developmentally appropriate. Family style meals benefit children by: Encouraging healthy food choices as teachers and peers model positive attitudes toward nutrition. Supporting children to learn in developmentally appropriate ways about concepts such as serving sizes, nutritional food groups, and the value of trying new foods. Offering opportunity for children to practice using appropriately sized utensils to serve themselves and helping to set and clear the table. This improves children’s fine motor skills, boosts their self-confidence, and expands their social skills. Support children's understanding of how food and nutrition contribute to growth and overall health, in alignment with the Head Start Early Learning Outcomes Framework (ELOF). For example, a preschooler should be supported to identify a variety of healthy and unhealthy foods, and to make healthy eating choices both independently and with support, and a toddler should show willingness to try nutritious foods when offered on multiple occasions. Make snack and mealtimes a positive experience for children. This means programs provide sufficient time for children to eat, avoid using food as a reward or punishment, and do not force children to finish their food. The Performance Standards help programs make meals enjoyable by creating positive eating environments where children are supported to develop and maintain healthy relationships with food. Promote consistency in mealtime routines between home and school by providing one-on-one time for infants during bottle feeding. For bottle-fed infants, Head Start programs must hold infants during feeding to support socialization. This one-on-one time helps staff build their relationships with infants. In turn, these safe and trusting relationships provide the foundation for learning and development because they help very young children feel secure and confident about exploring the world around them. Nutrition Requirements for Engaging with Families Parent and family engagement is a cornerstone of comprehensive Head Start services. Programs must partner with families to support their wellbeing and their children’s learning and development. As it relates to health and nutrition, programs are required to promote children’s and families’ health by providing nutrition education support services that are understandable to individuals, including individuals with low health literacy (45 CFR §1302.46(a)). Programs must collaborate with parents to discuss their child’s nutritional status, including the importance of healthy eating, the negative health consequences of sugar- sweetened beverages, and the importance of physical activity. They must also help parents understand how to select and prepare nutritious foods that meet the family’s nutrition and food budget needs (45 CFR 5 /8 §1302.46(a)(1)(ii)). Programs are strongly encouraged to provide specific information to families about the importance of eating whole foods and minimizing ultra-processed foods and avoiding added sugars such as those in soda and other sugar-sweetened beverages. Funding and Partnerships to Support Nutrition Services for Head Start Programs, Children, and Families Child and Adult Care Food Program (CACFP) and Head Start Programs Head Start grant recipients and their delegate agencies are required to participate in CACFP (45 CFR §1302.44(b)), a federal program administered by the USDA, Food and Nutrition Services (FNS). Programs are reimbursed by CACFP for all enrolled children at the free rate. CACFP reimburses Head Start programs for up to two meals and one snack, or two snacks and one meal per day. All meals and snacks eligible for reimbursement by CACFP must conform to the requirements in the CACFP Meal Patterns for Children. The amount and type of food that must be offered varies based on the meal or snack, as well as the specific age group being served. USDA provides numerous resources to assist program officials in determining how foods credit toward the meal pattern requirements, including the Food Buying Guide for Child Nutrition Programs (FBG). Head Start programs are encouraged to speak with the state agency that administers the CACFP to determine if a food that is not in the FBG is eligible for reimbursement. Additional videos are available on the Head Start website to support programs with CACFP implementation. Per 45 CFR §1302.44(b), Head Start grant funds may be used to cover any allowable costs for meal services that are not covered by the USDA program. Foods purchased with Head Start grant funds must conform with the nutritional requirements in 45 CFR §1302.44(a)(2)(iii), including being high in nutrients and low in saturated fat, sugar, and salt. Head Start funds may also be used to pay for food that is provided to families for consumption at home, if they have a specific programmatic purpose related to family engagement. For example, Head Start programs can provide supplies for parents to engage in healthy cooking activities or start a family garden with their children at home, and parents can share about these experiences during parent groups or socializations. Other Federal Programs that Support Healthy Eating and Nutrition for Head Start Children and Families The Special Supplemental Nutrition Program for Women, Infants, and Children (WIC) WIC is a public health nutrition program administered by the USDA that provides nutrition education, nutritious foods, breastfeeding support, and health care referrals for income-eligible pregnant or postpartum women, infants, and children up to age 5. Head Start programs can support families to determine if they are eligible for WIC and then help them to enroll. Local WIC and Head Start programs work closely together in many communities to support the healthy development of children and families. This strong collaboration at the local level allows the two programs to coordinate their services and maximize use of resources (e.g., funding, staff, space) for children and families. Head Start programs are encouraged to view suggested strategies and resources to further enhance partnerships with WIC programs at the state and local levels. Supplemental Nutrition Assistance Program (SNAP) 6 /8 SNAP is a federal program administered by the USDA that provides food benefits to low-income families to supplement their grocery budget so they can afford the nutritious food essential to health and well-being. Similar to WIC, Head Start programs can support families to determine if they are eligible for SNAP and then help them to enroll. Families who already receive SNAP are considered categorically eligible for Head Start services. This allows for cross-program recruitment and eliminates duplicative and burdensome paperwork for families who are already eligible for a federal public assistance benefit. It also reinforces access to healthy nutrition services for the children and families Head Start programs serve and provides opportunities to prioritize education about healthy food consumption, including the importance of minimizing ultra-processed and high-sugar foods. Tips to Foster Enthusiasm for Healthy Eating and Nutrition Head Start programs have many options for integrating creative approaches to healthy eating and nutrition services that are aligned with the Performance Standards and developmental progressions in the Head Start Early Learning Outcomes Framework (ELOF). The tips below provide some examples: Make nutrition education activities fun, interactive, hands on, and part of the daily schedule . Connecting nutrition activities with reading, math, or science content makes for a comprehensive approach to learning. Send versions of learning materials home with parents with instructions for how they can share in this learning with their children. Some ideas include: Sensory activities and games: Ask children to describe the tastes or texture of foods. Use fruits and vegetables with different colors, shapes, and textures, such as kiwi, pineapples, or avocados, and let children examine both the inside and outside of fruits and vegetables. Storytelling and pretend play: Turn mealtime into story time. Turning broccoli into a “tree” or carrots into “sticks” makes mealtime fun. Outside of mealtime, use nutrition in imaginative play: Pretend to be different characters making good food choices. Read books with characters making healthy choices. Set up a dramatic play area with healthy food choices in a kitchen, grocery store, or restaurant and talk about selecting nutritious foods. Meal planning: Plan fun learning experiences like “Ingredient of the Week” where children select a healthy ingredient to be included in the daily lunch menu for a week. Host special days focused on nutrition, like “Fruit and Veggie Day,” or have a “Healthy Snack Party”. Reach out to the CACFP state agency contact for approved meal and snack ideas that increase variety. For families, provide take-home materials that encourage variety in meals. Consider easy, fast, and healthy recipes that can be part of a family’s routine menu at home. Growing plants: Have a small garden or indoor plants to show children how food grows. Take a nature walk to find different food and plants or visit local farms and farmers markets. If in-person visits are not possible, use technology for a virtual farm trip. Mealtime: Share materials with families that support making mealtime fun and educational. Help families engage children as part of meal prep. As their skills develop, children can participate in setting the table, washing fruit and vegetables, and mixing ingredients. Families can extend these learning moments by inviting children to count or measure ingredients, identify food colors, and learn new vocabulary. Family style meals: Family style dining encourages learning and development not only at the table but away from mealtime as well. Children learn independence, social skills, and other important habits that will last them through adulthood. Parents who have not experienced family style meals often enjoy these experiences and, with support from program staff, may adopt these practices at home. Use these tips for family style dining. Increase access to fresh foods. Explore opportunities to help children and families learn about and access fresh foods through creative experiential opportunities and connections: 7 /8 Connect with local businesses: Take field trips to farmers markets, local working farms, or grocery stores to teach children about fresh fruits and vegetables. Children may be eager to identify new foods they would like to try. Teachers can use the foods in lesson plans and for healthy snacks. Connect with other Head Start programs. Visit other Head Start programs who are integrating experiential learning opportunities to promote health and wellness. Engage with families. Ask parent volunteers to assist in the creation of an on-site garden, where they can pick fresh food to take home for their families. Share information during parent groups and socializations about balancing nutrients, including calories, proteins, vitamins, and minerals. Staff can share books for parents to read with their children about what foods make up each food group and how much of each food group is needed to fuel the brain and body. Food pantries: Establish relationships with local food pantries, if available in the community. Ensure you have a process for regularly checking in with all families about their food security and connect them to local food pantry resources as needed. Focus on the communities served. Take the time to get to know enrolled families on an individual and community level, and incorporate their traditions and culture into healthy meals at the program and as part of community events. Group events are a great time to serve traditional foods and explore community cultures. For example, offer a rotating, in-person or virtual cooking class drawing on healthy, local or cultural meals for the families in your program. Ingredients can be provided in advance. Breastfeeding and infant nutrition. Breastfeeding is the perfect mix of nutrition for growing babies. The American Academy of Pediatrics (AAP) recommends that infants be exclusively breastfed for the first six months, then breastfed for at least one year while they are introduced to complementary foods. Head Start programs can provide a breastfeeding friendly environment by having a nursing room on-site for either enrolled pregnant women or mothers who want to come to the program and breastfeed their enrolled infants.

Feasibility Study Development Process: Role of the Steering Committee, Feasibility Study Goals, Funding Allocation and Timeline CONTRA COSTA COUNTY Printed on 7/14/2025Page 1 of 7 powered by Legistar™ File #:25-1350,Version:1 At the October 17, 2023 Board of Supervisors meeting, 13 Steering Committee members were appointed to oversee and guide the development and implementation of the African American Holistic Wellness and Resource Hub (AAHWRH) Feasibility Study. At their November 13, 2023 meeting, the Equity Committee directed the Office of Racial Equity and Social Justice (ORESJ) to convene the African American Holistic Wellness and Resource Hub (AAHWRH) Feasibility Study Steering Committee to develop and open a solicitation for an organization or firm to conduct a Feasibility Study for an African American Holistic Wellness and Resource Hub, to be presented to the Board of Supervisors. The successful firm is expected to accomplish the following outcomes: ·Produce a feasibility study that outlines the “what” and the “how” of launching and sustaining an African American Holistic Wellness and Resource Hub in Contra Costa County. The study would outline the most pressing needs faced by the African American community in the County, what services should be housed within the African American Holistic Wellness and Resource Hub, the location(s) of those services to best serve the needs of the most vulnerable members of the African American community, and the initial county investment and total cost to establish the services. ·Facilitate deep engagement with the African American/Black community to ensure that the feasibility study is a reflection of community members’ experiences and responds to their most pressing needs for holistic wellness services and resources. ·Share regular progress report updates with the Co-Directors of the Office of Racial Equity and Social Justice and the Steering Committee for the African American Holistic Wellness and Resource Hub Feasibility Study. ·Report the feasibility study findings to the Board of Supervisors, outlining clear next steps toward establishing an African American Holistic Wellness and Resource Hub in Contra Costa County. At the April 2024 Budget Hearings, the Board of Supervisors allocated $7.5 million in Measure X funding for the establishment of the African American Holistic Wellness and Resource Hub upon completion of the feasibility study. This funding was in addition to $1 million in Measure X funds allocated by the Board of Supervisors in December 2023 to address immediate needs for African American wellness services. At their July 9, 2024 meeting, the Board of Supervisors approved the recommendation from the AAHWRH Feasibility Study Steering Committee to select Ceres Policy Research as the firm to conduct the feasibility study, and authorized the ORESJ to negotiate a $180,000 contract with Ceres Policy Research. From September 2024 to April 2025, Dr. Kerby Lynch (Ceres Policy Research), Ryan Drake-Lee and Dr. Tonia Lediju partnered with the AAHWRH Feasibility Study Steering Committee to conduct a feasibility study that included a community needs assessment, service model development, site identification and economic feasibility analysis. Dr. Kerby Lynch met monthly with the AAHWRH Feasibility Study Steering Committee and provided regular progress updates and reports to the Equity Committee. The following timeline identifies major milestones for the feasibility study: ·September 9, 2024: The AAHWRH Feasibility Study Steering Committee identified seven priority populations for whom services should target: o Families/Parents of K-12 Youth o African American Elders o Justice-Impacted Individuals o African American Women During Child-Bearing Years CONTRA COSTA COUNTY Printed on 7/14/2025Page 2 of 7 powered by Legistar™ File #:25-1350,Version:1 o Unhoused Community Members o African American Males o Mental Health and Substance Use ·October 2024: Launched a survey that yielded 4,047 responses from African American/Black residents across the five districts. ·October - November 2024: Held 16 listening sessions to gather feedback from the seven target populations. ·February - March 2025: Held district town halls with all five members of the Board of Supervisors to share the data and analysis from the community needs assessment, and to gather feedback about the proposed service delivery model for an African American Holistic Wellness and Resource Hub. ·March 10, 2025: The AAHWRH Feasibility Study Steering Committee received and discussed the final draft proposal for an African American Holistic Wellness and Resource Hub and voted to move forward the proposal to the Equity Committee. ·March 17, 2025: The Equity Committee received and discussed the final draft Feasibility Study for the African American Holistic Wellness Hub and directed the ORESJ and Ceres Research to provide an update to the Board of Supervisors. Feasibility Study Findings and Proposal to Establish an African American Holistic Wellness and Resource Hub The Feasibility Study from Ceres Policy Research proposes the African American Holistic Wellness and Resource Hub (AAHWRH) to be implemented through a three-phase, readiness-based approach to meet urgent needs while building the foundation for long-term sustainability, equity, and shared governance. This approach grounds early action in building trust and community voice-beginning with mobile service delivery and evolving toward permanent infrastructure and co-governance through a Joint Powers Authority (JPA) or an alternative long-term structure. Phase 1: Rapid Implementation & Foundational Governance This first phase would prioritize urgent service delivery through mobile wellness teams and satellite activations, while building governance and administrative infrastructure. Proposed Key Actions: ·Deploy mobile wellness teams in partnership with Black-led community-based organizations (CBOs) and county departments to offer trauma-informed care, housing navigation, economic support, and culturally responsive mental health services in high-need areas. ·Appoint a Founding or Interim Executive Director to coordinate startup operations, stakeholder communication, and subregional implementation. ·Transition the Steering Committee into a Transitional Oversight Committee to guide implementation, provide accountability, and produce quarterly public updates on service metrics and equity goals. ·Launch community satellite activations in trusted spaces like churches, cultural centers, and childcare hubs to increase accessibility while permanent infrastructure is developed. ·Develop agreements with municipalities and community partners to clarify shared roles, in-kind contributions, and equity-focused outcomes. ·Create a culturally grounded referral and service navigation directory (“The Green Book”) to facilitate coordinated, accessible care. CONTRA COSTA COUNTY Printed on 7/14/2025Page 3 of 7 powered by Legistar™ File #:25-1350,Version:1 Potential Metrics: o 2-3 mobile wellness units deployed in priority districts. o 500+ Black residents served monthly through mobile/satellite outreach. o 10+ partnership MOUs with Black-led service providers. o Public dashboard and quarterly reports produced by the Oversight Committee. Phase 2: Subregional Activation & Co-Governance Development Phase 2 would deepen services through semi-permanent sites and formalize governance structures to support shared leadership and funding transparency. Proposed Key Actions: ·Activate semi-permanent hubs in libraries, schools, and community centers within each subregion (East, West, Central/South). ·Establish subregional planning groups to define localized service priorities and recommend budget allocations based on community needs. ·Formalize the Advisory & Oversight Committee as a co-governing body with representation from Black CBOs, justice-impacted individuals, youth, elders, and municipal partners. ·Identify a lead fiscal agent through a request for qualifications or other competitive process, such as a Black-led nonprofit or regional foundation, to manage grants, budgets, and compliance. ·Pilot digital outreach and scheduling tools, including an AAHWRH mobile app and Short Message Service (SMS or text messaging) referral system. ·Expand workforce pipelines by launching formal partnerships with colleges and employers to train and hire Black wellness professionals. Potential Metrics: o 3+ semi-permanent wellness hubs operational in high-need subregions. o JPA or hybrid co-governance structure drafted with community input. o Increased access to and retention in culturally affirming care and support services. o Training-to-hire programs initiated in coordination with local institutions. Phase 3: Permanent Infrastructure & Long-Term Governance Phase 3 would formalize long-term governance and launches the first permanent AAHWRH facility, while maintaining mobile and satellite operations. Proposed Key Actions: ·Open the first permanent Hub at 1650 Cavallo Road (or similar site in East County) based on readiness, community need, and accessibility. ·Sustain mobile and semi-permanent services in West and Central/South County through rotating site activations and cross-agency staffing. ·Transition to a Joint Powers Authority (JPA) or permanent fiscal intermediary with embedded community oversight, jurisdictional cost-sharing, and public accountability measures. ·Deliver wraparound services including: o Integrated physical and mental health care o Black maternal health and doula support CONTRA COSTA COUNTY Printed on 7/14/2025Page 4 of 7 powered by Legistar™ File #:25-1350,Version:1 o Housing and legal advocacy o Workforce development and entrepreneurship programming o Cultural healing and restorative justice spaces ·Implement a long-term funding plan leveraging Medi-Cal reimbursements, philanthropic partnerships, and public investments. Potential Metrics: ·JPA or long-term governance entity fully operational with public board representation and oversight powers. ·Permanent East County Hub facility opened and delivering comprehensive services. ·Funding model secured with multi-year commitments. ·Annual public performance reports, community scorecards, and equity impact evaluations released. Proposed Sustainability Plan & Funding Strategy: A Phased, Multi-Source Approach In April 2024, the Board of Supervisors allocated $7.5 million in Measure X funding to establish an African American Holistic Wellness and Resource Hub (AAHWRH). The long-term sustainability proposal for the AAHWRH depends on a phased, community-responsive funding strategy-one that reflects the urgency of present needs while laying the groundwork for lasting public infrastructure rooted in Black wellness, equity, and self-determination. This approach follows a “revenue from everywhere” model, which begins with the $7.5M investment from the Board of Supervisors, seeks additional investments from other public and philanthropic partners, and establishes earned income streams. Phase 1: Immediate Investment & Public Stewardship The Feasibility Study proposes that the initial $7.5 million investment by the Board of Supervisors, managed by the Office of Racial Equity and Social Justice (ORESJ), would fund mobile wellness teams, community contracts, and early-stage coordination. During this phase, ORESJ would serve as the interim fiscal and administrative holder, enabling flexible deployment of services while formal governance is established. Potential key funding sources include: ·Measure X allocation for direct services, outreach, and capital preparation. ·County departmental contributions through existing wellness, housing, and economic development programs. ·Early philanthropic partnerships with equity-focused institutions (e.g., Kaiser Permanente, Blue Shield Foundation). This period would also allow time to support exploration of any alternative fiscal structures, such as a potential future Joint Powers Authority (JPA). Phase 2: Diversification & Capacity Building As services expand across semi-permanent sites, the Feasibility Study proposes implementing a blended funding model that would include: ·Medi-Cal and Medicare/Medi-Cal Dual Eligible Special Needs Plan (D-SNP) reimbursements for eligible health services (e.g., maternal care, behavioral health, substance use recovery). ·Support from County and city governments, potentially through participatory budgeting processes aligned with community priorities. ·Philanthropic funding for capacity-building grants to support Black-led CBOs participating in service CONTRA COSTA COUNTY Printed on 7/14/2025Page 5 of 7 powered by Legistar™ File #:25-1350,Version:1 delivery. A dedicated lead fiscal agent or intermediary may be identified during this phase to steward contracts, track impact and reporting, and manage multi-source compliance until a formal governance structure is operationalized. Phase 3: Revenue Generation & Long-Term Infrastructure Once a permanent facility is established, the Hub is expected to generate earned income that would support reinvestment in local services and operations. Potential sources of earned income include: ·Sliding-scale wellness and workforce services. ·Rental income from entrepreneurship incubators, shared-use space, and pop-up retail. ·Onsite food, vending, and cooperative ventures led by local residents. ·Philanthropic and public-private partnerships for site-based capital improvements. The long-term structure-whether a JPA, an evolved intermediary, or another structure-would manage pooled resources and expand investment pathways through: ·Federal and state grants. ·Municipal contributions tied to population and equity impact. ·Regional public health initiatives and innovation funds. Next Steps The ORESJ will continue to work with Equity Committee to address actionable next steps related to the development of the African American Holistic Wellness and Resource Hub. Potential next steps will be developed and addressed with direction of the Equity Committee. Possible considerations to address may include discussions around: ·Exploration of potential deployment and partnership frameworks for the AAHWRH, including possible partners and related successful models. ·Consideration of community oversight and engagement mechanisms, such as an Oversight Committee. ·Exploration of jurisdictional partnerships and philanthropic partners to support early service delivery (e.g. mobile wellness teams, satellite activations, and coordination infrastructure). The ORESJ will develop next steps under the direction of the Equity Committee and will return to the Board with updates and any proposed actions. CONSEQUENCE OF NEGATIVE ACTION: Without this update, the Board would not be apprised of the progress made towards the establishment of the African American Holistic Wellness and Resource Hub.

These examples serve as potential frameworks for the AAHWRH, focusing on community-driven approaches to health equity, racial justice, and wellness. Drawing from existing models across various sectors and regions, these examples provide a range of strategies for scaling wellness services, from pilot projects to fully integrated and sustainable initiatives. These strategies emphasize flexibility, phased development, and the importance of centering community leadership in wellness delivery. The application of these models to the AAHWRH offers insights into how the Hub can build on local and national best practices while advancing long-term community-driven health and wellness infrastructure. 4 8 C a s e -I n f o r m e d F u n d i n g S t r u c t u r e s Organization Focus Potential Application California Endowment Community-driven health equity and racial justice initiatives Potential funding source for the AAHWRH’s health equity initiatives California Wellness Foundation Health equity and community-based trauma care initiatives Model for securing long-term funding through a Joint Powers Authority (JPA) or similar structure California Department of Public Heal th (CDPH) - Off ice of Heal th Equity Statewide health equity initiatives Model equity strategies for AAHWRH based on CDPH's Health in All Policies (HiAP) approach Keystone Community Center (MN) Wellness, social services, and mental health support Wellness hub model integrating health and economic resilience Bay Area Housing Finance Authority (BAHFA) Affordable housing and economic development Collaborate on integrating housing solutions into wellness services Keystone Community Center (Minnesota) Community wellness, social services, and mental health support Runs wellness hubs focused on holistic health and economic resilience Bay Area Housing Finance Authority (BAHFA) Affordable housing and economic development AAHWRH could collaborate with BAHFA to integrate housing solutions into its wellness framework Youth Uprising Center (Oakland, CA) & Ashland Youth Center (Alameda County, CA) Youth empowerment, trauma- informed care, and workforce development AAHWRH could adopt a similar co- location model for integrating youth services Richmond Heal th Equity Partnership (RHEP) Reducing racial health disparities and increasing access to quality care AAHWRH could align its strategies with RHEP’s initiatives Detroit People’s Food Co-op (MI) Food justice and economic empowerment through cooperative systems AAHWRH could incorporate cooperative food justice models to support health and economic stability Harlem Children’s Zone (HCZ) – New York, NY Comprehensive community support through cradle-to-career programming AAHWRH could start with pilot programs in a specific area before expanding countywide La Clínica de La Raza (California) Primary care, behavioral health, dental care, mobile health units AAHWRH could replicate La Clínica’s mobile health model to reach underser ved populations 4 9 P h a s e d I m p l e m e n t a t i o n M o d e l s f o r C o m m u n i t y W e l l n e s s H u b s Model Focus Phase 1 Phase 2 Phase 3 Harlem Children’s Zone (NY) Education and community wellness Pilot in a select block with workshops Expand to cradle-to- college pipeline Integrated housing, health, and jobs Heal thRight 360 (CA) Mental health, substance use, and primary care Behavioral health services Integrated primary care Mobile clinics for wider reach Sierra Heal th Foundation (CA) Community wellness hubs Identify community needs Launch ser vice hubs Develop permanent hubs for comprehensive care Live Well San Diego (CA) Health equity and community well- being Needs assessment and engagement Pilot health programs County-wide rollout and policy integration Alameda County Af rican American Wellness Hub Black wellness and mental health Outreach and pop-ups Culturally responsive mobile services Expansion to permanent hubs San Francisco Wellness Hubs (CA) Harm reduction and community care Pop-up services for high- need areas Integrate health and behavioral services Develop permanent hubs for long-term service 5 0 I n s t i t u t i o n a l M o d e l s a n d C o l l a b o r a t i v e A p p r o a c h e s Institution/Model Focus Potential Application to AAHWRH Bay Area Housing Finance Authority (BAHFA) Housing and economic development Integrate housing solutions into wellness infrastructure Center for Health Equity Transformation (CHET) Racial health disparities and trauma-informed care Conduct data-driven interventions to reduce disparities Youth Uprising (Oakland, CA) Youth services and trauma- informed care Co-locate youth ser vices with health and wellness programs California Heal th Equity Project Equity-based policy interventions Align AAHWRH's advocacy with statewide health equity initiatives Af rican-Centered Wellness Model (AACWI) Culturally specific mental health services Integrate Afrocentric mental health frameworks for addressing historical trauma California Reducing Disparities Project (CRDP) Community-driven mental health solutions Use CRDP’s model for expanding mental health services and funding 5 1 Key Considerations for AAHWRH Implementation Most models begin with a small-scale pilot or temporary service hubs and expand over time. Early-phase investments should focus on building trust, infrastructure, and relationships with local partners. Effective models incorporate community input at all stages of development, from service design to evaluation. Uphold the leadership of Black-led organizations and embed local stakeholders as core participants in governance and decision-making processes. While initial funding may come from government grants or philanthropic sources, look for models that create long-term sustainability through partnerships, co-investment strategies, and diversified revenue streams. The AAHWRH can draw insights from the case examples and phased implementation models provided. By focusing on flexible, community- rooted strategies, AAHWRH can scale effectively, build long-term sustainability, and advance equitable outcomes for Black residents in Contra Costa County. This appendix offers a guide to structuring the Hub’s development across phases while integrating lessons learned from successful initiatives. 5 2 T h i s f r a m e w o r k i s r o o t e d i n t h e l i v e d e x p e r i e n c e s , a n c e s t r a l k n o w l e d g e , a n d h e a l i n g t r a d i t i o n s o f B l a c k c o m m u n i t i e s i n C o n t r a C o s t a C o u n t y .

Workforce and Hiring Standards Lived experience in carceral systems, homelessness, and racial trauma is recognized as essential expertise. Preference will be given to organizations that recruit, train, and compensate staff with direct experience navigating these systems. Prioritization of Black Providers and Practitioners Organizations should prioritize hiring Black therapists, case managers, social workers, and community health navigators. Preference is given to entities that provide culturally competent training to their staff to better serve Black residents. Fair Compensation and Economic Opportunity for Black Workers Partners must provide competitive wages and workforce development opportunities for Black professionals. Programs should include mentorship, career advancement pathways, and support for certification and licensure for Black providers. Leadership Development and Succession Planning Organizations should demonstrate a commitment to training emerging Black leaders in the wellness sector. Preference will be given to entities that have established pipelines for Black professionals to advance into leadership roles.

X X 1 8 6 X X Feature MOU-Based Intergovernmental Network Hybrid Model: Fiscal Agent + Advisory Committee (AC) Oversight AAHWRH Joint Powers Authority (JPA) Structure MOUs between cities, county depts, and CBOs for shared commitments and metrics Lead fiscal agent (County or CBO) manages funds; AC governs strategy Legal entity created under Gov Code §6500 with formal board Community Governance Advisory committee with rotating city leadership and public reporting Advisory Committee holds co-governance role AC embedded in bylaws; participates in funding & program design Legal/Bureaucratic Complexity Low – flexible, amendable, easier onboarding Moderate – depends on fiscal agent capacity and clarity High – requires legal formation, agency votes, bylaws, formal withdrawal process Flexibility High – roles/responsibilities can evolve via MOUs Moderate – requires agreed structure but adaptable Lower – more rigid but can be amended with structured governance Accountability Tools Public dashboards, shared data, quarterly Advisory committee meetings Operating agreements, biannual equity reports, joint evaluation protocols Annual performance reporting, bylaws, standing committees, formal audits Funding Capacity Relies on agency goodwill, general funds, philanthropy Blended model: public/philanthropic funds via fiscal agent Highest potential – enables pooled public/private funds, grant eligibility, bonding authority City Council Approval Not required for each partner agency beyond initial MOU Not required if a CBO is fiscal agent; recommended for buy-in Required – councils must vote to join the JPA and approve appointees Service Delivery Oversight Through shared evaluation framework and AC reviews AC recommends strategy; fiscal agent manages compliance JPA Board holds full oversight; Executive Director executes implementation Ideal Use Case Early-stage collaboration, pilot hubs, limited-term initiatives Transitional model or bridge during JPA planning phase Long-term sustainability, permanent hub infrastructure, capital projects Transparency Mechanisms Public dashboards, AC summary reports Operating agreements, participatory evaluation tools Public board meetings (Brown Act), budget hearings, community scorecards Perceived Strength Flexibility and speed of implementation without new entity High community trust, balance of oversight and execution Legal clarity, interagency coordination, equitable cost-sharing formula Perceived Weakness No centralized enforcement; risk of misalignment or dropped commitments Requires high trust and strong administrative backbone Risk of rigidity, legal complexity, slower formation timeline S u m m a r y C o m p a r i s o n o f G o v e r n a n c e S t r u c t u r e s f o r t h e A A H W R H 1 8 8 I I I .

This is a roadmap grounded in Black wisdom, collective care, and shared responsibility. DEDICATION & ACKNOWLEDGEMENT •We dedicate this work to Black Contra Costa residents who have endured systemic violence, demanded better, and are building liberation—together. INSPIRED BY ORESJ’S PRINCIPLES •We center: o Community-led solutions o Healing over punishment o Culturally grounded services o Accountability and equity at every level •This initiative reflects ORESJ’s legacy of radical listening, innovation, and repair. BACKGROUND & COMMUNITY MANDATE •BOS authorized ORESJ in 2023 to study a wellness model for Black residents after community demand for healing resources emerge. •4,000+ surveys, 16+ listening sessions, and 12 stakeholder interviews •13-member Steering Committee led the process •District-level analysis and priority setting •Disparities are deepest in Districts 1 (Richmond) and 3 (Antioch)—over 60% of Black residents live here. •This is a solution rooted in Black community wisdom, and designed to build what hasn't existed: coordinated, trusted, culturally grounded care. WHAT WE HEARD •Services feel untrustworthy or unsafe •Systems are hard to navigate or avoidant •Black-led spaces are rare or underfunded •Wellness = health, housing, income, and belonging •“We need preventative care, not just the ER when it’s too late.” •“We don’t need more services—we need coordination and trust.” WHY WE NEED THE HUB •A public space for Black wellness •Not a duplicate—this coordinates what’s missing •Black residents reported harm from existing systems: anti-Black environments, poor service coordination, distrust. •Core gaps: o Culturally rooted mental health services o Housing navigation & rental aid o Economic stability & workforce access o Spaces for healing & belonging •These aren’t “extra” services—they’re survival tools. THE AAHWRH MODEL •Three Core Service Areas: 1.Holistic Health & Healing (mental health, trauma care, maternal support) 2.Housing & Economic Stability (navigation, rental aid, workforce reentry) 3.Cultural & Community Wellness (healing circles, arts, youth/elder care) •Three-Phase Rollout: •Phase 1:Mobile response teams (health, housing, workforce) + site activations •Phase 2:Satellite centers in priority districts •Phase 3:Permanent facility in East County (e.g., 1650 Cavallo Rd, Antioch) GOVERNANCE & ACCOUNTABILITY PLAN Action Item 1:✔Transition Steering →Oversight Committee •13-member, district-representative, Black-led. •Oversees implementation, hiring, equity tracking. •Reports quarterly to ORESJ. Action Item 2:✔Recruit an Executive Director within 90 Days •Will lead: o Onboarding service providers o Partner alignment o Compliance, staffing, and communications GOVERNANCE & ACCOUNTABILITY PLAN Ac#on Item 3:✔Designate ORESJ as Interim Fiscal Holder of $7.5M •Un#l a JPA or hybrid structure is formed •Can contract immediately for: o Mobile wellness teams o Subregional coordina#on o Evalua#on & technical assistance Ac#on Item 4:✔Explore Jurisdic#onal Partnerships •Priori#ze District 3 and 5 for immediate deployment •City of An#och iden#ﬁed as poten#al inaugural partner IMPLEMENTATION TIMELINE LONG -TERM VISION •Year 1: o Transition Steering Committee to Oversight Body o Sign MOU with Partners o Launch mobile services and RFP process •Staffing: o Executive Director, Evaluation Coordinator, Cultural Program Manager, etc. •Governance Structure: o Start with ORESJ + Oversight o Explore JPA or hybrid model based on trust, confirmed investments and outcomes •Sustainability: o Leverage county funds + philanthropy + anchor institutions o Build workforce pipelines (e.g. UCSF, 4CD) and long-term infrastructure •Accountability: o Track progress through community-led evaluation o Public dashboards and reporting BOARD ACTION REQUESTED •Approve governance transition •Authorize ED hiring within 90 days •Allocate $7.5M to ORESJ as fiscal lead •Authorize jurisdictional partnerships and mobile activation •Start service deployment through contracts CLOSING •We believe Black wellness matters. We believe community-led design can work. And we believe now is the time.

MEMORANDUM FOR THE CONTRA COSTA BOARD OF SUPERVISORS From: Dr. Kerby Lynch, Director of Research and Facilitation, Ceres Policy Research Date: April 7, 2025 Subject: Leveraging GIS to Advance Place-Based Planning for Black Wellness in Contra Costa County Overview As part of the African American HolisUc Wellness & Resource Hub (AAHWRH) iniUaUve, Ceres Policy Research partnered with RomoGIS to develop an interacUve map that applies a place- based approach to racial equity, service planning, and wellness infrastructure in Contra Costa County. This tool helps visualize the geographic distribuUon of Black residents alongside key health access indicators, using 2023 ACS 5-Year EsUmates and County Health Center data. View the live map here: TINYURL.COM/ROMOCERESHUBMAP h"ps://romogis.maps.arcgis.com/apps/webappviewer/index.html?id=0811e7388151446fa9212a00313cc0cf Purpose of the Map This tool uses place-based data to support more informed decisions about where and how to invest in Black wellness infrastructure across Contra Costa County. It provides users—whether planners, community members, or County departments—with an interactive way to: • Identify concentrations of Black residents by census tract • View County Health Centers (red dots) and their surrounding one- and three-mile service areas • Explore key indicators related to health equity and economic stress, including: o Percentage of residents without health insurance o Percentage of households spending 30% or more of income on rent or mortgage o Percentage of residents without a high school diploma o Median household income Using the map’s layer toggle feature, users can switch between data sets to understand patterns of disparity and target outreach, mobile services, and funding more effectively. Strategic Use This tool supports efforts to: • Mobile Hub Planning – Identify high-need areas for pop-ups and outreach teams • Phase 1–3 Deployment Strategy – Align services with locations where community needs are most concentrated • Funding Justification – Provide visual data to support grant applications and resource allocation • Community Education – Communicate patterns of disparity in public meetings, town halls, and outreach materials The map is publicly accessible and interactive. Users can toggle between layers using the widget tool, with only one data layer displayed at a time for clarity. The default view highlights the percentage of Black residents without health insurance—aligned with AAHWRH’s focus on health access. Other layers include education levels, rent burden, and income, which offer a deeper look at structural inequities. This mapping tool helps identify where resources are most needed and where investments can make the greatest impact. It supports planning efforts by making visible the geographic distribution of Black residents and the overlapping barriers they face—such as unaffordable housing, lack of coverage, and income inequality. It also provides a clear framework for deploying mobile services, locating satellite hubs, and advocating for place-based policy solutions that respond to real community conditions.

I appreciate your questions, candor, and concerns — and I wanted to follow up with some clarifications and context, particularly around governance, accountability, and the scope of the African American Holistic Wellness & Resource Hub (AAHWRH). Governance Was a Later-Stage Deliverable The question of governance arose at the direction of the Equity Committee in March. Prior to that, our scope focused on assessing need, feasibility, and implementation pathways. Following your guidance, we developed a comparative governance analysis and stakeholder-informed hybrid model that reflects both County structure and community values. The model includes: • Transitional Oversight Committee of community and County reps • County department alignment under ORSJ coordination • Clear accountability tied to performance and equity metrics Annual Service Targets by District During our discussions, several of you raised the important question: What does success look like? Appendix C of the report outlines a full set of Health Equity Indicators, rooted in the levels of systemic disparity currently experienced by Black residents in Contra Costa County. To begin to address that disparity at scale, we calculated the annual service targets needed to reach the most impacted population across each district. These targets reflect the level of response necessary to meet the depth of need — not current service levels. In fact, it's likely that current departmental reach is significantly below these targets. That’s why a baseline assessment of current utilization, enrollment, and staffing capacity will be a critical next step in implementation planning. These numbers are not aspirational — they’re proportional to need. And they offer a way to track whether County investment is matching County data. District % Black Pop.Est. Annual Target District 1 33.6%4,030 residents District % Black Pop. Est. Annual Target District 3 28.3% 3,396 residents District 5 27.1% 3,252 residents District 4 7.0% 840 residents District 2 3.9% 468 residents Service design reflects regional needs: a full-service Hub in West County, mobile/pop-up services in East County, and rotating activations in Central and South. Clarifying Scope: What the Hub Is and Is Not To address recent comparisons, here’s how the AAHWRH differs from other County-aligned service models: Feature Family Justice Center Library Foundation of CA (No information on county foundation, because it was la Raza AAHWRH (Proposed) Core Mission support Library support & innovation Latinx community healing Governance County-led (DA) Independent 501(c)(3) FQHC nonprofit County- enabled, community- ~$1.6M ~$2.3M $183M+ $7.5M Phase 1; scalable Staff ~12 ~8 1,000+ Phase 1: ~20; scaling to 50+ Services Navigation, DV, legal Technical assistance Primary care, mental health, housing, reentry, youth, Community Governance No No Yes Yes — via Steering Committee & Feature Family Justice Center Library Foundation of CA (No information on county foundation, because it was la Raza AAHWRH (Proposed) Service Reach 3 sites Statewide network 250K+ annually 12K+ Black residents across 5 Cultural Lens Survivor- centered Public access Latinx-rooted trauma- Delivery Model Static Grant distribution Fixed facilities Mobile + Satellite + The AAHWRH is not a duplicative nonprofit, nor a standalone County program. It’s a scalable, community-informed infrastructure plan — designed to bring urgency and alignment to longstanding racial disparities, through measurable outcomes and integrated delivery. The Family Justice Center and Contra Costa Library Foundation are standard 501c3, however they still need signingicant management support as well and strategic direction from the Board. I welcome any further questions and am happy to provide language for motions or oversight structures if that would be helpful ahead for today. Thank you again for your time and consideration.

(District IV) FISCAL IMPACT: If the property is leased as a result of the ENRA, the Airport Enterprise Fund will realize lease and other revenues and the County General Fund will receive sales tax and other revenues. BACKGROUND: On November 13, 2018, the Board authorized the Director of Airports to negotiate a long-term ground lease and development terms with a developer for a vacant 17-acre site at the Buchanan Field Airport. The property is located on the west side of the Airport, generally between Marsh Drive and Sally Ride Drive. The Montecito Development Company (Montecito) was the only developer to submit an offer in response to the County’s solicitation for competitive interest in the site. On May 7, 2019, the Board authorized the Director of Airports to enter into an Exclusive Negotiating Rights Agreement (ENRA) with Montecito so they could actively market the property to identify a tenant. Further, it also enabled the County and Montecito to feel confident in proceeding with the requisite entitlement processes, CONTRA COSTA COUNTY Printed on 7/14/2025Page 1 of 2 powered by Legistar™ File #:25-1353,Version:1 including the environmental reviews for the National Environmental Policy Act (NEPA) and California Environmental Quality Act (CEQA). The Developer has been diligently pursuing the development of the property with the intent to obtain land use entitlements. Montecito continues to work with County staff and its consultants to complete the project’s CEQA Environmental Impact Report. As a result of complex engineering associated with the site’s stormwater drainage, along with longer than anticipated Federal Aviation Administration (FAA) timelines, the development process is going beyond the term of the ENRA’s first amendment, set to expire on April 17, 2025. To that end, the County and Developer again desire to amend the ENRA to extend its term, to permit Developer the time to complete the entitlement process and associated environmental reviews. Development of this 17-acre vacant parcel would expand economic development activity at the Buchanan Field Airport and lead to increased revenues to the Airport Enterprise Fund and added local jobs. CONSEQUENCE OF NEGATIVE ACTION: Allowing the ENRA to expire could negatively impact the development and marketing of the property. CONTRA COSTA COUNTY Printed on 7/14/2025Page 2 of 2 powered by Legistar™ 1 SECOND AMENDMENT TO EXCLUSIVE NEGOTIATING RIGHTS AGREEMENT 17-ACRE PARCEL AT BUCHANAN FIELD AIRPORT This first amendment is dated as of April 15, 2025, and is between Contra Costa County, a political subdivision of the State of California (the “County”) and FSRE Industrial Concord, LLC, a Georgia limited liability company (“Developer”). RECITALS A. The County and Developer are parties to an Exclusive Negotiating Rights Agreement dated May 7, 2019 (the “ENRA”). Pursuant to the ENRA, Developer is negotiating a long-term lease and development terms with the County for approximately 17 acres of land at Buchanan Field Airport in Concord, California. B. Developer became the “Developer” under the ENRA as a result of (i) the original developer, Montecito Development Company, LLC (“Montecito”) forming FSRE Industrial Concord, LLC, as a separate limited liability company with an investor, and (ii) the County consenting to the assignment of Montecito’s rights under the ENRA to Developer, pursuant to a consent to assignment dated June 8, 2021. C. Developer has been diligently pursuing the development of the Property by endeavoring to obtain land use entitlements and the preparation of an environmental impact report. As a result of complex engineering associated with the site’s stormwater drainage, along with longer than anticipated Federal Aviation Administration (FAA) timelines, the development process is taking longer than expected. To that end, the County and Developer desire to amend the ENRA to extend its term, to permit Developer the time to complete the entitlement process and associated environmental reviews. The parties therefore agree as follows: AGREEMENT 1. Definitions. All terms used but not defined in this amendment have the meanings ascribed to them in the ENRA, including the definition of the Effective Date, which continues to mean May 7, 2019. 2. Term. Section 2 of the ENRA is deleted in its entirety and replaced with the following: 2. Term. Unless terminated in accordance with this Agreement, the term of this Agreement is comprised of (i) an initial period of 12 months, beginning on the Effective Date, and (ii) if agreed to by the parties in writing, two six-month renewal periods. The County’s Director of Airports (the “Director”) will make the determination for the County with respect to whether the term will be extended through any renewal period. The Director’s decision will be based on his reasonable judgment as to whether sufficient progress has 2 been made toward a mutually acceptable lease to merit further negotiations. Nothing in this Agreement obligates either party to agree to an extension. 3. Notices. Section 12 of the ENRA is deleted in its entirety and replaced with the following: 12. Notices. Any notices required or permitted under this Agreement (other than day to day routine communications) must be in writing and sent by overnight or personal delivery with delivery receipt. Such notices are to be sent to the address listed below: County: Director of Airports Contra Costa County 181 John Glenn Drive, Suite 100 Concord, CA 94520 Developer: FSRE Industrial Concord Attn: Bruce Lake Goodman, President 1180 W.

Notices will be deemed received as follows: on the date shown on the delivery receipt as the date of delivery, the date delivery was refused, or the date the item was returned as undeliverable. If the date on the delivery receipt is not a business day, notice will be deemed received on the following business day. [Remainder of Page Intentionally Left Blank] 3 4. All other terms of the ENRA remain unchanged. The parties are signing this first amendment as of the date set forth in the introductory paragraph.

FISCAL IMPACT: California State Department of Food and Agriculture Agreement #24-0314 provides reimbursement for the Agriculture Department for kenneling and canine expenses. There is no County match of funds. 100% State funds. BACKGROUND: On September 24, 2024, the Board of Supervisors approved the Agricultural Commissioner to execute a contract with the California Department of Food and Agriculture to reimburse the County up to $271,037.23 to expand the County’s Agriculture Dog Team for the period July 1, 2024, through June 30, 2025. The State’s agreement #24-0314 includes reimbursement for canine kenneling and expenses up to $30,000. Celtic Kennels has provided dog kenneling for the Department’s Agriculture Dog Team Program since 2020. This renewal contract provides continuity of services for the Department. The contract contains indemnification and a hold-harmless provision to protect the County against potential liabilities for use of this site, which was approved by County Counsel. The contract development process required extended review between the County and the vendor, which is why Board approval is being sought after the contract effective date. CONTRA COSTA COUNTY Printed on 7/14/2025Page 1 of 2 powered by Legistar™ File #:25-1354,Version:1 CONSEQUENCE OF NEGATIVE ACTION: Failure to approve this contract will result in loss of required kenneling services and potential loss of the canine contract of $271,037.23 for the Agriculture Department and breach of Agreement #24-0314 with the State.

FISCAL IMPACT: There is no fiscal impact for this action. BACKGROUND: During the COVID-19 pandemic, states received increased Medicaid funding on the condition that they would postpone disenrollments as long as the federal COVID-19 public health emergency (PHE) remained in effect. This “continuous coverage” requirement allowed millions of Californians to stay on Medi-Cal during an unprecedented health crisis. The federal Consolidated Appropriations Act of 2023 specified that the Medicaid continuous coverage requirement would no longer be linked to the PHE. The requirement ended on March 31, 2023. Medi-Cal resumed its normal renewal processes on April 1, 2023. At the March 10, 2025 Family and Human Services Committee meeting, the committee accepted the attached report on post-COVID Medi-Cal activities and approved staff forwarding the report to the Board of Supervisors for their information. Slide 5 of the report was updated to include the percentage of all households in each district that are receiving Medi-Cal.

FISCAL IMPACT: There is no General Fund impact. Measure X funds are part of a countywide, 20-year 1/2 cent sales tax approved by Contra Costa County voters on November 30, 2020. BACKGROUND: CONTRA COSTA COUNTY Printed on 7/14/2025Page 1 of 4 powered by Legistar™ File #:25-1455,Version:1 Measure X is a countywide 20-year 1/2 cent sales tax approved by Contra Costa voters on November 3, 2020. The ballot measure language stated the intent of Measure X is "to keep Contra Costa's regional hospital open and staffed; fund community health centers, provide timely fire and emergency response; support crucial safety -net services; invest in early childhood services; protect vulnerable populations; and for other essential County services." On November 16, 2021, the County Board of Supervisors approved allocating a portion of Measure X revenue to establish a new funding source to support the development of affordable housing and housing/homelessness related activities, now known as the Measure X Housing Fund (MX Housing Fund). The Board of Supervisors approved and committed $10 million of Measure X funds for Year One and $12 million on an annual basis thereafter for the MX Housing Fund. On September 20, 2022, the Board of Supervisors approved and authorized the County’s Health Services Department-Health, Housing, and Homelessness Division (H3) and the Department of Conservation and Development (DCD) to administer the MX Housing Fund, with H3 administering 25 percent of the overall MX Housing Fund and DCD administering 75 percent of the MX Housing Fund. On June 13, 2023, the Board of Supervisors approved the first year (Year One) of MX Housing Funds for housing/homelessness related service activities. Available Funding The total amount available for FY 2025/26 in the County’s MX Housing Fund is $12.9 million dollars. The amount of MX Housing Funds available to be allocated for Year Three housing/homelessness related services is $4,096.875.94, which is comprised of H3’s 25 percent portion, minus 10 percent for Administration ($2,902,500), an additional $1 million that comes from DCD’s 75 percent portion, and $194,375.94 that is being recaptured from completed Year One MX Housing Fund activities. The remaining balance of the total MX Housing Fund was dedicated to assist with financing affordable housing development projects, which is being distributed through a separate RFP that was released solely by DCD in October 2024, and recommendations for those funds will be considered separately by the Board of Supervisors in an upcoming meeting in June or July 2025. In addition to the MX Housing Fund, additional funding sources available through H3 for homelessness services/crisis response and intervention were included in the RFP. The additional non-Measure X funding programs include Coordinated Entry funds via the U.S. Department of Housing and Urban Development (HUD), Encampment Resolution funds via the California Department of Housing and Community Development, and AB109 funds via the Contra Costa County Probation Department. These additional non- Measure X funding sources total $2.6 million and are solely administered by H3. The approval of the respective contracts with the respective organizations for these non-Measure X funds will be considered at a later meeting by the Board of Supervisors. Two-Year Funding Cycle On November 7, 2023, the Board of Supervisors approved establishing and implementing a two-year funding cycle for housing/homelessness related services beginning with the Year One and Year Two MX Housing Funds (FY 2023/24 and FY 2024/25). FY 2025/26 is Year 3 of the Measure X Housing Fund and is also the beginning of a new two-year funding cycle. Therefore, except for one-time awards (an award for capacity building projects reflected in Attachment A), the recommended amounts for each respective agency/program for Year 3 (FY 2025/26) are also the recommended amounts for the same agencies/programs for Year 4 (FY 2026/27), contingent on the availability of funds and satisfactory performance of the awarded service providers. Although Year 4 would be considered a renewal year, the Year 4 recommendations will still be presented to the CONTRA COSTA COUNTY Printed on 7/14/2025Page 2 of 4 powered by Legistar™ File #:25-1455,Version:1 Family and Human Services Committee and forwarded to the Board of Supervisors for final consideration in the Spring of 2026. Application Process In an effort to continuously improve RFP processes, H3 and DCD worked during the summer of 2024 to conduct stakeholder engagement for the development of this RFP. Efforts included applicant surveys, one-on- one interviews with previously unfunded capacity building applicants, and public stakeholder feedback sessions. Based on the community feedback, improvements to the RFP included developing a diverse application review panel, changes to the method of submitting applications, and clarifying funding priorities and sources in the writing of the RFP. H3 and DCD released the RFP on October 4, 2024. On October 10, 2024, H3 and DCD hosted an Applicant Information Session (held virtually) to provide prospective applicants an overview of the RFP and MX Housing Fund. In addition, H3 and DCD hosted “office hours” on two separate occasions, once in the month of October 2024 and the other in early November 2024, to offer more in-depth technical assistance to prospective applicants. In total, 20 complete applications (14 service applications and 6 one-time capacity building applications) were submitted by the deadline of November 22, 2024. One application was submitted with minimal information and was unable to be evaluated. An application review panel, comprised of seven individuals, evaluated each application during the months of January and February, which included interviews with applicants that requested an interview (primarily applicants who submitted applications for capacity building). The application review panel further developed funding recommendations and recommended Measure X Housing funds to 14 non-profit, community-based organizations. During the week of March 3, 2025, DCD and H3 notified applicants on the funding recommendations and that the recommendations would be presented to and considered by the Board's Family and Human Services Committee on March 10, 2025. On March 10, 2025, the Board's Family and Human Services (FHS) Committee met to consider the recommendations on the MX Housing funds for housing related services and homelessness response and intervention services. After hearing public comments and after some discussion, the FHS Committee approved the recommendations as presented by staff and directed staff to forward the recommendations to the Board of Supervisors for final consideration. The MX Housing Fund recommendations approved by the FHS Committee are included in Attachment A. CONSEQUENCE OF NEGATIVE ACTION: Negative action will prevent or delay the recommended housing and homelessness services from being provided to residents in the County. The applicants would have to seek other funding sources, which could jeopardize or delay the services from being provided.

(District IV). ☒Recommendation of the County Administrator ☐ Recommendation of Board Committee RECOMMENDATIONS: 1. ADOPT the associated Resolution, initiating proceedings for the formation of a new zone, Zone 1102, within County Service Area P-6, located at 1024-1026 Grayson Road in the unincorporated Pleasant Hill area of the County. 2. FIX a public hearing for May 13, 2025, at 9:00 a.m., on the formation of Zone 1102 within County Service Area P-6. 3. FIX a public hearing for May 13, 2025, at 9:00 a.m., to consider the adoption of Ordinance 2025-06, which would authorize the levy of a special tax to augment funding for police protection services in proposed Zone 1102, and to authorize submission of the ordinance to the voters for approval at the July 15, 2025, election. FISCAL IMPACT: The cost of establishing the proposed Police Services Special Tax District is paid for by the developer of the subdivision. BACKGROUND: CONTRA COSTA COUNTY Printed on 7/14/2025Page 1 of 3 powered by Legistar™ File #:RES 2025-116,Version:1 Per the conditions of approval for Subdivision 9531 (County File #CDSD20-09531), the developer of the property located at 1024-1026 Grayson Road in the unincorporated Pleasant Hill area is required to establish a Special Police Services Tax District for the 10-lot subdivision prior to recording the final map for the subdivision. The proposed special tax district would fund an increase in the level of police protection services that is provided in the unincorporated Pleasant Hill area. Adoption of a resolution of intent to form a new tax district is required by Government Code Section 25217, subdivision (b), as the first step in forming the proposed zone, which will serve as the vehicle to collect special taxes within the proposed zone if the tax measure is approved by the voters on the July 15, 2025, ballot. The resolution includes information regarding the name and boundaries of the zone, the different level of services to be provided, and the method by which the increased level of service is to be funded. The resolution also directs the Clerk of the Board to publish and mail notice of a public hearing regarding the proposed zone formation. It is recommended that the Board set this hearing for 9:00 a.m. on May 13, 2025. If at the conclusion of that public hearing the Board determines that more than 50% of the total number of voters residing within the proposed zone have filed written objections to the formation, Government Code Section 25217.1, subdivision (b)(1), would require the Board to determine that a majority protest exists and to terminate the proceedings. The proposed police service district currently consists of a single 3.02-acre property owned by Calibr Ventures INC, who per the conditions of approval for the subdivision are required to establish the police service district prior to recording the final map. If there is no majority protest and the Board elects to proceed with the formation of the zone, a second public hearing would be required to consider the approval of Ordinance No. 2025-06, pertaining to the proposed levy of a special tax on the subject parcel within Zone 1102 for police protection services and submission of the measure to the voters, pursuant to Government Code Section 50077, subdivision (a). It is recommended that this hearing be set at 9:00 a.m. on May 13, 2025, immediately following the hearing on the zone formation. If the Board thereafter adopts Ordinance No. 2025-06, then the tax measure would be submitted for placement on the July 15, 2025, ballot. CONSEQUENCE OF NEGATIVE ACTION: If not approved, Ordinance No. 2025-06 will not be adopted, formation of Special Tax Zone 1102 will not occur, and the Special Tax District will not be established at the May 13, 2025, hearing. CONTRA COSTA COUNTY Printed on 7/14/2025Page 2 of 3 powered by Legistar™ File #:RES 2025-116,Version:1 THE BOARD OF SUPERVISORS OF CONTRA COSTA COUNTY, CALIFORNIA and for Special Districts, Agencies and Authorities Governed by the Board IN THE MATTER OF RESOLUTION OF INTENTION TO FORM ZONE 1102 OF COUNTY SERVICE AREA P-6 IN THE UNINCORPORATED PLEASANT HILL AREA WHEREAS, the Board of Supervisors of Contra Costa County RESOLVES: 1. The Board of Supervisors of Contra Costa County proposes the formation of new zone in the unincorporated Pleasant Hill area of County Service Area (CSA) P-6, pursuant to Article 8 of Chapter 2.3 of Part 2 of Division 2 of Title 3 of the California Government Code. 2. The boundaries of the territory to be included in the zone area are described in 'Exhibit A' and shown in 'Exhibit B', both of which are attached hereto and incorporated herein by this reference. 3. The formation of Zone 1102 is proposed to provide the County of Contra Costa with a method of financing an increased level of police protection services to the area within the zone. 4. The proposed zone would provide a level of police protection services that exceeds the level of service outside the zone, and if approved by the voters, the proposed zone would generate additional revenue in the form of special taxes to fund the increase in this level of service. 5. The increase in the level of service would be financed through the levy of a voter-approved special tax on all taxable parcels within the zone. 6.

CONTRA COSTA COUNTY Printed on 7/14/2025Page 1 of 4 powered by Legistar™ File #:RES 2025-117,Version:1 FISCAL IMPACT: No impact to the General Fund. The County will be reimbursed for any costs incurred in the process of conducting the TEFRA Hearing and Board of Supervisors’ approval. The issuance authorization is for the sole purpose of satisfying the provisions of the Code. No County funds are pledged to secure the Bonds. BACKGROUND: Contra Costa County, through the Conservation and Development Department, operates a multifamily mortgage revenue bond financing program. The purpose of the program is to increase or preserve the supply of affordable rental housing available to low and very low-income households. The County program may be undertaken within the unincorporated County and within the cities located in the County that have agreed to let the County operate the program in their jurisdiction. The County is authorized to issue multifamily housing revenue notes and bonds pursuant to Section 52075 and following the California Health and Safety Code. The recommended action is the adoption of a Tax Equity and Fiscal Responsibility Act (TEFRA) resolution by the Board, as the legislative body of the County, authorizing the issuance of multifamily housing revenue bonds or notes (the "Bonds") in the maximum principal amount of $50,000,000, and the loan of the proceeds of the Bonds to ECP Parcel A South Housing Partners, L.P., a California limited partnership (the “Borrower”), to provide financing for costs of the acquisition, development, construction, or rehabilitation of a 70-unit multifamily residential rental housing development located at 515 Richmond Street in the City of El Cerrito, known as El Cerrito Plaza - Parcel A South (the "Project"). The main purpose of the proposed resolution is to acknowledge that a public hearing was held by the Department of Conservation and Development on April 4, 2025, where members of the community were given an opportunity to speak on the use of tax-exempt financing for the Project, and to meet other bond issuance requirements which are specified in Section 147(f) of the Internal Revenue Code. No public comments were received. A notice of the hearing was published in the East Bay Times (proof of publication attached) on March 27, 2025. The proposed bonds cannot be issued until a separate, future resolution is adopted by the Board of Supervisors specifically authorizing the sale of the bonds. The separate resolution to authorize the sale of bonds would come before the Board after receipt of an allocation from the State of California for Private Activity Bond Authority. An application for Private Activity Bond Authority has been submitted to the California Debt Limit Allocation Committee. The expected timing for a Bond Sale Resolution is anticipated by the end of October 2025. The proposed resolution would not relieve the Borrower from obtaining other required permits or approvals required by law, nor obligate the County to incur any obligation or provide financial assistance with respect to the Bonds or the Project. Annual expenses of the County related to the monitoring of the Regulatory Agreement are provided for in the bond issue. CONSEQUENCE OF NEGATIVE ACTION: Negative action would prevent the County from meeting the public approval requirement of the Internal Revenue Code for issuing Multifamily Housing Revenue Bonds, and prior actions of officers and agents of the County would not be confirmed and ratified. As a result the Multifamily Housing Revenue Bonds could not be CONTRA COSTA COUNTY Printed on 7/14/2025Page 2 of 4 powered by Legistar™ File #:RES 2025-117,Version:1 issued by the County and the Project will not be built.

BACKGROUND: In May of 1995, the County entered into the Agreement with MDRR to govern collection services provided in unincorporated East County areas. The Agreement has been amended four times and said amendments were approved by both Parties on or about January 8, 2000, January 25, 2011, August 9, 2011, and July 14, 2020. The Agreement grants MDRR the exclusive privilege and duty to collect residential and commercial solid waste and recyclable material (including organics) within the unincorporated service area (Franchise Area). The Franchise Area covers the following unincorporated communities, all but one of which is located in East County: 1. Part of Bay Point (western portion) 2. Bethel Island 3. Brentwood, unincorporated 4. Part of Byron (outside the Byron Sanitary District service area) 5. Discovery Bay 6. Knightsen 7. North Concord, unincorporated 8. Oakley, unincorporated The current Franchise Agreement with MDRR continues through May 8, 2025. The purpose of this Fifth Amendment is to extend the term of the Agreement through August 31, 2025. There are no service or rate changes in this Fifth Amendment to the Franchise Agreement. CONSEQUENCE OF NEGATIVE ACTION: After May 8, 2025, solid waste, recycling, and organics collection services in the unincorporated East County area currently served by MDRR would no longer be regulated under a franchise agreement as required by County Code Chapter 418-7.

The early redemption of the bonds will result in avoidance of future interest costs in the amount of $2,586,444 ($1,965,944 Series A and $620,500 Series B) for the period December 1, 2025 through June 1, 2035. The Net Present Value (NPV) of the June 1, 2025 interest payment plus the future cost avoidance of interest is approximately $984k in 2025 dollars.NPV is a calculation of the present value of future cash flows expressed in current year dollars. Today’s action appropriates $15,635,000 from General Fund Unassigned fund balance to complete the redemption. The balance, $4,739,847 (composed of $4,275,000 in principal and $464,846.88 in interest) is already budgeted in the current year and has been collected through occupancy rates established by the Public Works department. BACKGROUND: CONTRA COSTA COUNTY Printed on 7/14/2025Page 1 of 4 powered by Legistar™ File #:25-1375,Version:1 On July 21, 2015, the Board of Supervisors authorized issuance of up to $90,000,000 of bonds to fund various capital projects and refunded previously issued bonds for cost savings. Ultimately, the County ended up issuing $71,115,000 of lease revenue bonds; $19,055,000 to find new capital projects and $52,060,000 to refund previously issued bonds for cost savings with no change to the final maturity date. Specifically, the 2015 Lease Revenue Bonds included funding for the following: 2015 Series A (Capital Projects) - $19,055,000 Solar Photovoltaic Panels. This project consisted of the acquisition and installation of solar photovoltaic panels that generate an aggregate capacity of approximately 1,742 kilowatts and an estimated 2,952,000 kilowatt- hours per year. The solar photovoltaic panels were installed on canopies located on six sites within the County, including: the Juvenile Hall; the Sheriff Coroner-Forensic Science Center; the Sheriff's Office of Emergency Services; the Sheriff's Field Operations Bureau facility; the Public Works Department Administrative office building; and the West County Health Center. The solar photovoltaic panels had an expected useful life of 25 years at the time of construction Behavioral Health and Medical Clinic Expansion. This project consisted of the construction, acquisition, installation and equipping of an approximately 12,000 square foot behavioral health facility and expansion of a medical clinic on an approximately 0.93 acre parcel located adjacent and connected to the County’s West County Health Center in San Pablo, California. Construction of the Behavioral Health and Medical Expansion was completed in February 2020 and has been in service since that time. 2015 Series B (Refunding) - $52,060,000 The County’s 2015 Series B refunding resulted in a net present value (NPV) cost savings of $4.6 million from a series of outstanding bonds, including the following: 1999 Series A, 2002 Series A, 2002 Series B, 2003 Series A and 2007 Series A. Redemption of the Bonds When the County issued the 2015 Series A and Series B bonds, a “call option” was priced into the sale of the bonds. This is typical of the vast majority of tax exempt bonds sold in the municipal bond market. A “call option” is a financial instrument that allows the issuer of bonds an opportunity to redeem the bonds at a future point in time, in this case 10 years from the date of issuance of the bonds, for refunding or defeasance. This allows the issuer flexibility to capitalize on changes to interest rates, restructure its debt portfolio or defease the bonds in full (i.e. pay the bonds off). As each of the County’s bond issuances approaches its respective call date, staff tracks the economic opportunities to refund or redeem the bonds for cost savings or to defease the bonds. In the case of the 2015 Series A and Series B bonds, staff recommended and the Board approved redemption of the bonds based on three primary reasons: 1.Positive Net Present Value (NPV) Savings: Results in the avoidance of $2,586,444 ($1,965,944 Series A and $620,500 Series B) in future interest costs, which combined with the June 1, 2025 interest payment due at redemption have an approximate, combined NPV savings amount of $984k. 2.Budget Flexibility: The 2015 Series A and Series B bonds have a remaining debt service requirement of $23,426,137 for fiscal years 2024-25 through 2034-35. It is important to note that the debt service CONTRA COSTA COUNTY Printed on 7/14/2025Page 2 of 4 powered by Legistar™ File #:25-1375,Version:1 requirement includes both principal and interest outstanding, which is different from the amount needed to redeem the bonds in that the latter reflects the principal outstanding at the time of the redemption plus the scheduled June 1, 2025 interest payment. Redeeming the bonds early will result in additional budget flexibility from avoiding future debt service payments entirely. This flexibility is most beneficial in the upcoming three budget cycles (FY25-26 through FY27-28) with scheduled debt service payments ranging from $4.5 million to $4.1 million - a period when the County may be facing challenges with changes to federal and state revenue receipts. Below is a table showing the current debt service schedule (principal + interest) for the 2015 Lease Revenue bonds, by series and by fiscal year, for reference: Series A Series B Total FY24-25 1,777,693.763,427,000.005,204,693.76 FY25-26 1,050,193.763,420,750.004,470,943.76 FY26-27 1,050,693.763,007,500.004,058,193.76 FY27-28 1,049,443.761,307,250.002,356,693.76 FY28-29 1,046,443.76 0.00 1,046,443.76 FY29-30 1,046,693.76 0.00 1,046,693.76 FY30-31 1,049,943.76 0.00 1,049,943.76 FY31-32 1,049,143.76 0.00 1,049,143.76 FY32-33 1,047,293.76 0.00 1,047,293.76 FY33-34 1,048,218.76 0.00 1,048,218.76 FY34-35 1,047,875.00 0.00 1,047,875.00 12,263,637.6011,162,500.0023,426,137.60 2015 Lease Revenue Bonds 3.Release of Leased Assets: Lease Revenue Bonds are secured by certain leased assets pledged at the time of issuance of the bonds. The 2015 Series A and Series B bonds currently rely on the following County properties: 2015 SERIES A&B Sheriff's Forensic Services Building/Coroner's Office1960 MUIR ROAD MARTINEZ Department of Information Technology 30 DOUGLAS DRIVE MARTINEZ Contra Costa Health Plan (CCHP) Administration 595 CENTER AVE.MARTINEZ Workforce Services/Aging & Adult Services Building4545 DELTA FAIR BLVD ANTIOCH John A.

This will allow the County additional flexibility as future development decisions are made surrounding the Capital Facilities Master Plan (CFMP), including the disposition of long-standing properties owned by the County without having to take subsequent action by the Board. A Lease Termination Agreement (attached) will be executed at the time of redemption to effectuate this release.

FISCAL IMPACT: This MOE Certification is required by State statute as implemented by guidelines issued by the California State Controller. Failure to submit the required certification form would result in the loss of more than $100 million in State Proposition 172 funds for the current fiscal year. For Fiscal Year 2024/25, the budget includes an estimated Proposition 172 revenue of approximately $107,954,000 to be split between Sheriff Patrol (46.3%), Sheriff Detention (36.3%) and the District Attorney’s Office (17.4%). BACKGROUND: This ½ cent sales tax was authorized in 1994 as a result of the 1993/94 state budget process. Proposition 172 (Senate Bill 509) designated that the ½ cent sales tax be deposited to newly created state and local public safety trust funds and allocated to local agencies to fund public safety activities such as police, sheriff, fire, district attorney, county corrections, and ocean lifeguards. Court operations were explicitly excluded. To prevent supplantation of local revenues that would have otherwise been allocated to public safety functions with Proposition 172 sales tax, the Legislature enacted Assembly Bill 2788 as Chapter 886, Statutes of 1994, which added section 30056 to the Government Code. Government Code section 30056 requires a local agency to commit at least the same resources as were committed in FY 1992/93 (minus certain exclusions), adjusted CONTRA COSTA COUNTY Printed on 7/14/2025Page 1 of 3 powered by Legistar™ File #:25-1367,Version:1 each year by any growth in its Proposition 172 revenue, as maintenance of effort (MOE) in order to qualify to receive Proposition 172 (Public Safety Sales Tax). Government Code section 30056 does not specifically define what is meant by “public safety services” and allows each county to make its own computation. In implementing the MOE on May 16, 1995, as indicated in the Certification Form, the County defined public safety as follows: District Attorney (Department 0242), Probation (Departments 0308, 0309, and 0310), Public Defender (Department 0243), Sheriff-Coroner (Departments 0255, 0277, 0300, and 0359), and Inmate Medical Care (Department 0301). It should be noted that the definition of “public safety services” for computation of the MOE obligation does not in any way detract from the Board’s authority to designate those funds to whatever public safety department or service it chooses. In 1993, the Board of Supervisors directed that all public safety sales tax proceeds be allocated to the District Attorney and Sheriff departments. For the Fiscal Year 2024/25, the budget includes estimated Proposition 172 revenue of $89 million to fund operations in the Sheriff's Office and $18.7 million to fund operations in the District Attorney’s Office.

By authorizing the County Administrator to execute and submit the MOE Certification Form to the County Auditor-Controller, the Board will assure that the County will receive its full allotment of Proposition 172 funds for the current year. CONSEQUENCE OF NEGATIVE ACTION: Failure to file the required certification will jeopardize the County's eligibility to receive public safety sales tax revenue.

FISCAL IMPACT: Approval of this action will result in a one-time expenditure of up to $468,879 and will be funded by the California Department of Health Care Services (DHCS) Crisis Care Mobile Units (CCMU) funds. Cost Centers 5989 and 5912 will be utilized for this purchase. There is no impact to the County General Fund. BACKGROUND: The California Department of Health Care Services (DHCS) Crisis Care Mobile Units (CCMU) program and Measure X provides funding for Contra Costa County Behavioral Health authorities to implement new and enhanced equipment for the A3 (Anyone, Anywhere, Anytime) Behavioral Health Crisis Response program that serves the entire County. This funding includes the use of supporting telecommunication equipment. Our mobile crisis response teams (Mental Health Specialists, Community Support Workers, and Substance Use Counselors) will use the radios and equipment to respond with other first responder agencies throughout the county to enhance safety and provide services to individuals experiencing a behavioral health crisis. The mobile crisis response teams will assess clients onsite, stabilize the situation, or initiate an involuntary hold. Our mobile teams in the field will use these radios to communicate with the County’s CON Fire Dispatch and A3/Miles Hall Call center. A3 intends to purchase 78 handheld radios, 2 base stations radios, 23 car chargers, 11 six-bank radio chargers, and 15 individual desktop chargers. CONTRA COSTA COUNTY Printed on 4/23/2025Page 1 of 2 powered by Legistar™ File #:25-1376,Version:1 Motorola is the current platform for our existing mobile and portable radio equipment as well as the radio consoles in the dispatch center, which operate on the East Bay Regional Communication System (EBRCS). Using this platform allows seamless integration with the current subscriber units and infrastructure being used by Contra Costa County, CON Fire Dispatch and EBRCS. On December 18, 2024 the Purchasing Agent approved the continued use of Motorola Solutions, Inc. CONSEQUENCE OF NEGATIVE ACTION: If radios are not available, Behavioral Health Services will not be meeting the requirements of the funding sources. Additionally, the mobile crisis response teams will not be able to meet the primary goal of the A3 model, which is to decrease response times in the field and provide necessary interventions/services. Another consideration is that the lack of radios and equipment will place staff at risk.

A delay or omission by either Party to exercise any right under this Agreement will not be construed to be a waiver of such right. A waiver by either Party of any of the obligations to be performed by the other, or any breach thereof, will not be construed to be a waiver of any succeeding breach or of any other obligation. All waivers must be in writing and signed by the Party waiving its rights. 13.5. Severability. If any provision of the Agreement is found by a court of competent jurisdiction to be invalid, illegal, or otherwise unenforceable, such provision will be deemed to be modified to reflect as nearly as possible the original intentions of the Parties in accordance with applicable law. The remaining provisions of this Agreement will not be affected, and each such provision will be valid and enforceable to the full extent permitted by applicable law. 13.6. Independent Contractors.

Capitalized terms used in this EPSLA, but not defined herein, will have the meanings set forth in the MCA. 1. Addendum. This EPSLA governs Customer’s purchase of Equipment and license of Licensed Software (and, if set forth in an Ordering Document, related Services) from Motorola, and will form part of the Parties’ Agreement. 2. Delivery of Equipment and Licensed Software. 2.1. Delivery and Risk of Loss. Motorola will provide to Customer the Products (and, if applicable, related Services) set forth in an Ordering Document, in accordance with the terms of the Agreement.

Subscription License Model. If the Parties mutually agree that any Licensed Software purchased under this EPSLA will be replaced with or upgraded to Subscription Software, then upon such time which the Parties execute the applicable Ordering Document, the licenses granted under this EPSLA will automatically terminate, and such Subscription Software will be governed by the terms of the applicable Addendum under this Agreement. 3.3. Customer Restrictions. Customers and Authorized Users will comply with the applicable Documentation in connection with their use of the Products. Customer will not and will not allow others, including the Authorized Users, to: (a) make the Licensed Software available for use by unauthorized third parties, including via a commercial rental or sharing arrangement; (b) reverse engineer, disassemble, or reprogram the Licensed Software or any portion thereof to a human- readable form; (c) modify, create derivative works of, or merge the Licensed Software with other software or equipment; (d) copy, reproduce, distribute, lend, lease, or transfer the Licensed Software or Documentation for or to any third party without the prior express written permission of Motorola; (e) take any action that would cause the Licensed Software or Documentation to be placed in the public domain; (f) use the Licensed Software to compete with Motorola; or (g) remove, alter, or obscure, any copyright or other notice. 3.4.

Temporary transfer of the Licensed Software to another device must be discontinued when the original Designated Product is returned to operation and the Licensed Software must be removed from the other device. Customer must provide prompt written notice to Motorola at the time temporary transfer is discontinued. 3.5. Resale of Equipment. Equipment contains embedded Licensed Software. If Customer desires to sell its used Equipment to a third party, Customer must first receive prior written authorization from Motorola and obtain written acceptance of the applicable Licensed Software license terms, including the obligation to pay relevant license fees, from such third party.

Termination. Notwithstanding the termination provisions of the MCA, Motorola may terminate this EPSLA (and any Ordering Documents hereunder) immediately upon notice to Customer if Customer breaches Section 3 – Licensed Software License and Restrictions of this EPSLA, or any other provision related to Licensed Software license scope or restrictions set forth in an Ordering Document, EULA, or other applicable Addendum. For clarity, upon termination or expiration of the EPSLA Term, all Motorola obligations under this EPSLA (including with respect to Equipment and Licensed Software delivered hereunder) will terminate. If Customer desires to purchase additional Services in connection with such Equipment or Licensed Software, Customer may enter into a separate Addendum with Motorola, governing such Services. Customer acknowledges that Motorola made a considerable investment of resources in the development, marketing, and distribution of the Licensed Software and Documentation, and that Customer’s breach of the Agreement will result in irreparable harm to Motorola for which monetary damages would be inadequate. If Licensee breaches this Agreement, in addition to termination, Motorola will be entitled to all available remedies at law or in equity, including immediate injunctive relief and repossession of all non-embedded Licensed Software and associated Documentation. 4.3. Equipment as a Service. In the event that Customer purchases any Equipment at a price below the MSRP for such Equipment in connection Customer entering into a fixed- or minimum required-term agreement for Subscription Software, and Customer or Motorola terminates the Agreement, this EPSLA, or other applicable Addendum (such as the Addendum governing the purchase of such Subscription Software) prior to the expiration of such fixed- or minimum required-term, then Motorola will have the right to invoice Customer for, and Customer will pay, the amount of the discount to the MSRP for the Equipment or such other amount set forth in the applicable Addendum or Ordering Document. This Section will not limit any other remedies Motorola may have with respect to an early termination. 5. Payment. Customer will pay invoices for the Products and Services provided under this EPSLA in accordance with the invoice payment terms set forth in the MCA. Generally, invoices are issued after shipment of Equipment or upon Motorola’s delivery of Licensed Software (in accordance with Section 2.1 – Delivery and Risk of Loss), as applicable, but if a specific invoicing or payment schedule is set forth in the applicable Ordering Document, EULA or other Addendum, such schedule will control with respect to the applicable Products and Services referenced therein.

Monroe Street, Suite 4400, Chicago, IL 60661 (“Motorola”) and the entity set forth in the signature block below or in the MCA (“Customer”), and will be subject to, and governed by, the terms of the Motorola Solutions Customer Agreement entered into between the Parties, effective as of 2/1/2025 (the “MCA”). Capitalized terms used in this SSA, but not defined herein, will have the meanings set forth in the MCA. 1. Addendum. This SSA governs Customer’s purchase of Subscription Software (and, if set forth in an Ordering Document, related Services) from Motorola, and will form part of the Parties’ Agreement. Additional Subscription Software-specific Addenda or other terms and conditions may apply to certain Subscription Software, where such terms are provided or presented to Customer. 2. Delivery of Subscription Software. 2.1. Delivery. During the applicable Subscription Term (as defined below), Motorola will provide to Customer the Subscription Software set forth in an Ordering Document, in accordance with the terms of the Agreement. Motorola will provide Customer advance notice (which may be provided electronically) of any planned downtime. Delivery will occur upon Customer’s receipt of credentials required for access to the Subscription Software or upon Motorola otherwise providing access to the Subscription Software. If agreed upon in an Ordering Document, Motorola will also provide Services related to such Subscription Software. 2.2. Modifications. In addition to other rights to modify the Products and Services set forth in the MCA, Motorola may modify the Subscription Software, any associated recurring Services and any related systems so long as their functionality (as described in the applicable Ordering Document) is not materially degraded. Documentation for the Subscription Software may be updated to reflect such modifications. For clarity, new features or enhancements that are added to any Subscription Software may be subject to additional Fees. 2.3. User Credentials. If applicable, Motorola will provide Customer with administrative user credentials for the Subscription Software, and Customer will ensure such administrative user credentials are accessed and used only by Customer’s employees with training on their proper use. Customer will protect, and will cause its Authorized Users to protect, the confidentiality and security of all user credentials, including any administrative user credentials, and maintain user credential validity, including by updating passwords. Customer will be liable for any use of the Subscription Software through such user credential (including through any administrative user credentials), including any changes made to the Subscription Software or issues or user impact arising therefrom. To the extent Motorola provides Services to Customer in order to help resolve issues resulting from changes made to the Subscription Software through user credentials, including through any administrative user credentials, or issues otherwise created by Authorized Users, such Services will be billed to Customer on a time and materials basis, and Customer will pay all invoices in accordance with the payment terms of the MCA. 2.4. Beta Services. If Motorola makes any beta version of a software application (“Beta Service”) available to Customer, Customer may choose to use such Beta Service at its own discretion, provided, however, that Customer will use the Beta Service solely for purposes of Customer’s evaluation of such Beta Service, and for no other purpose. Customer acknowledges and agrees that all Beta Services are offered “as-is” and without any representations or warranties or other commitments or protections from Motorola. Motorola will determine the Docusign Envelope ID: C13D8E15-FF21-4049-ADC3-9319D5A45079 Subscription Software Addendum V.2023.02.17 2 duration of the evaluation period for any Beta Service, in its sole discretion, and Motorola may discontinue any Beta Service at any time. Customer acknowledges that Beta Services, by their nature, have not been fully tested and may contain defects or deficiencies. 3. Subscription Software License and Restrictions. 3.1. Subscription Software License. Subject to Customer’s and its Authorized Users’ compliance with the Agreement, including payment terms, Motorola hereby grants Customer and its Authorized Users a limited, non-transferable, non-sublicenseable, and non-exclusive license to use the Subscription Software identified in an Ordering Document, and the associated Documentation, solely for Customer’s internal business purposes. The foregoing license grant will be limited to use in the territory and to the number of licenses set forth in an Ordering Document (if applicable), and will continue for the applicable Subscription Term. Customer may access, and use the Subscription Software only in Customer’s owned or controlled facilities, including any authorized mobile sites; provided, however, that Authorized Users using authorized mobile or handheld devices may also log into and access the Subscription Software remotely from any location. No custom development work will be performed under this Addendum. 3.2. End User Licenses. Motorola may use, engage, resell, or otherwise interface with third- party software, hardware or services providers (such as, for example, third-party end point detection and response providers) and other sub-processors, who in turn may engage additional sub-processors to process personal data and other Customer Data. Customer agrees that such third-party software or services providers, sub-processors or their respective sub-processors may process and use personal and other Customer Data in accordance with and subject to their own respective licenses or terms and in accordance with applicable law. Customer authorizes and will provide and obtain all required notices and consents, if any, and comply with other applicable legal requirements, if any, with respect to such collection and use of personal data and other Customer Data by Motorola, and its subcontractors, sub-processors and/or third-party software, hardware or services providers. Notwithstanding any provision to the contrary, to the extent the use or performance of certain Services is governed by any separate license, data requirement, EULA, privacy statement, or other applicable agreement, including terms governing third-party software, hardware or services, including open source software, Customer will comply, and ensure its Authorized Users comply, with any such agreements or terms, which shall govern any such Services. 3.3. Customer Restrictions. Customers and Authorized Users will comply with the applicable Documentation and the copyright laws of the United States and all other relevant jurisdictions (including the copyright laws where Customer uses the Subscription Software) in connection with their use of the Subscription Software. Customer will not, and will not allow others including the Authorized Users, to make the Subscription Software available for use by unauthorized third parties, including via a commercial rental or sharing arrangement; reverse engineer, disassemble, or reprogram software used to provide the Subscription Software or any portion thereof to a human-readable form; modify, create derivative works of, or merge the Subscription Software or software used to provide the Subscription Software with other software; copy, reproduce, distribute, lend, or lease the Subscription Software or Documentation for or to any third party; take any action that would cause the Subscription Software, software used to provide the Subscription Software, or Documentation to be placed in the public domain; use the Subscription Software to compete with Motorola; remove, alter, or obscure, any copyright or other notice; share user credentials (including among Authorized Users); use the Subscription Software to store or transmit malicious code; or attempt to gain unauthorized access to the Subscription Software or its related systems or networks. Docusign Envelope ID: C13D8E15-FF21-4049-ADC3-9319D5A45079 Subscription Software Addendum V.2023.02.17 3 4. Term. 4.1. Subscription Terms. The duration of Customer’s subscription to the first Subscription Software and any associated recurring Services ordered under this SSA (or the first Subscription Software or recurring Service, if multiple are ordered at once) will commence upon delivery of such Subscription Software (and recurring Services, if applicable) and will continue for a twelve (12) month period or such longer period identified in an Ordering Document (the “Initial Subscription Period”). Following the Initial Subscription Period, Customer’s subscription to the Subscription Software and any recurring Services will automatically renew for additional twelve (12) month periods (each, a “Renewal Subscription Year”), unless either Party notifies the other Party of its intent not to renew at least thirty (30) days before the conclusion of the then -current Subscription Term. (The Initial Subscription Period and each Renewal Subscription Year will each be referred to herein as a “Subscription Term”.) Motorola may increase Fees prior to any Renewal Subscription Year. In such case, Motorola will notify Customer of such proposed increase no later than thirty (30) days prior to commencement of such Renewal Subscription Year. Unless otherwise specified in the applicable Ordering Document, if Customer orders any additional Subscription Software or recurring Services under this SSA during an in-process Subscription Term, the subscription for each new Subscription Software or recurring Service will (a) commence upon delivery of such Subscription Software or recurring Service, and continue until the conclusion of Customer’s then-current Subscription Term (a “Partial Subscription Year”), and (b) automatically renew for Renewal Subscription Years thereafter, unless either Party notifies the other Party of its intent not to renew at least thirty (30) days before the conclusion of the then-current Subscription Term. Thus, unless otherwise specified in the applicable Ordering Document, the Subscription Terms for all Subscription Software and recurring Services hereunder will be synchronized. 4.2. Term. The term of this SSA (the “SSA Term”) will commence upon either (a) the Effective Date of the MCA, if this SSA is attached to the MCA as of such Effective Date, or (b) the SSA Date set forth on the signature page below, if this SSA is executed after the MCA Effective Date, and will continue until the expiration or termination of all Subscription Terms under this SSA, unless this SSA or the Agreement is earlier terminated in accordance with the terms of the Agreement. 4.3. Termination. Notwithstanding the termination provisions of the MCA, Motorola may terminate this SSA (or any Addendum or Ordering Documents hereunder), or suspend delivery of Subscription Software or Services, immediately upon notice to Customer if (a) Customer breaches Section 3 – Subscription Software License and Restrictions of this SSA, or any other provision related to Subscription Software license scope or restrictions set forth in an Addendum or Ordering Document, or (b) it determines that Customer’s use of the Subscription Software poses, or may pose, a security or other risk or adverse impact to any Subscription Software, Motorola, Motorola’s systems, or any third party (including other Motorola customers). Customer acknowledges that Motorola made a considerable investment of resources in the development, marketing, and distribution of the Subscription Software and Documentation, and that Customer’s breach of the Agreement will result in irreparable harm to Motorola for which monetary damages would be inadequate. If Customer breaches this Agreement, in addition to termination, Motorola will be entitled to all available remedies at law or in equity (including immediate injunctive relief). 4.4. Wind Down of Subscription Software. In addition to the termination rights in the MCA, Motorola may terminate any Ordering Document and Subscription Term, in whole or in part, in the event Motorola plans to cease offering the applicable Subscription Software or Service to customers. Docusign Envelope ID: C13D8E15-FF21-4049-ADC3-9319D5A45079 Subscription Software Addendum V.2023.02.17 4 5. Payment. 5.1. Payment. Unless otherwise provided in an Ordering Document (and notwithstanding the provisions of the MCA), Customer will prepay an annual subscription Fee set forth in an Ordering Document for each Subscription Software and associated recurring Service, before the commencement of each Subscription Term. For any Partial Subscription Year, the applicable annual subscription Fee will be prorated based on the number of months in the Partial Subscription Year. The annual subscription Fee for Subscription Software and associated recurring Services may include certain one-time Fees, such as start-up fees, license fees, or other fees set forth in an Ordering Document. Motorola will have the right to suspend the Subscription Software and any recurring Services if Customer fails to make any payments when due. The parties acknowledge that pricing for Cyber Services is dependent on the full term or subscription periods specified in any such Ordering Document. Motorola will have the right to suspend the Services if Customer fails to make any payments when due 5.2. License True-Up. Motorola will have the right to conduct an audit of total user licenses credentialed by Customer for any Subscription Software during a Subscription Term, and Customer will cooperate with such audit. If Motorola determines that Customer’s usage of the Subscription Software during the applicable Subscription Term exceeded the total number of licenses purchased by Customer, Motorola may invoice Customer for the additional licenses used by Customer, pro-rated for each additional license from the date such license was activated, and Customer will pay such invoice in accordance with the payment terms in the MCA. 5.3. Customer Data. For avoidance of doubt, for Cyber Services so long as not specifically identifying the Customer, “Customer Data,” as defined in the MCA, shall not include, and Motorola shall be free to use, share and leverage security threat intelligence and mitigation data generally, including without limitation, third party threat vectors and IP addresses, file hash informat ion, domain names, malware signatures and information, information obtained from third party sources, indicators of compromise, and tactics, techniques, and procedures used, learned or developed in the course of providing Services 5.4. Future Regulatory Requirements. The Parties acknowledge and agree that Cyber Service is an evolving technological area and therefore, laws and regulations regarding Services may change. Changes to existing Services required to achieve regulatory compliance may be available for an additional fee. Any required changes may also impact the price for Services. 6. Liability. 6.1. ADDITIONAL EXCLUSIONS.

Voluntary Remedies. Motorola is not obligated to remedy, repair, replace, or refund the purchase price for the disclaimed or excluded issues in the MCA or Section 6.1 – Additional Exclusions above, but if Motorola agrees to provide Services to help resolve such issues, Customer will reimburse Motorola for its reasonable time and expenses, including by paying Motorola any Fees set forth in an Ordering Document for such Services, if applicable. 7. Motorola as a Controller or Joint Controller. In all instances where Motorola acts as a controller of data, it will comply with the applicable provisions of the Motorola Privacy Statement at https://www.motorolasolutions.com/en_us/about/privacy-policy.html#privacystatement, as may be updated from time to time. Motorola holds all Customer Contact Data as a controller and shall Process such Customer Contact Data in accordance with the Motorola Privacy Statement. In instances where Motorola is acting as a joint controller with Customer, the Parties will enter into a separate Addendum to the Agreement to allocate the respective roles as joint controllers. 8.

FISCAL IMPACT: This Contract will result in contractual service expenditures of up to $405,000 over a 6-year period and will be funded 100% by Hospital Enterprise Fund I revenues. BACKGROUND: Digital Imaging Communication in Medicine (DICOM)is an international,technical standard form of communication that is responsible for acquiring,storing,and transferring medical images (and related information)between medical systems.DICOM defines the formats for medical images that can be exchanged with the data and quality necessary for clinical use.This Contract meets the needs of the County by providing cloud-based,enterprise-wide digital medical image communication system software,maintenance,and support. Ambra Health (formerly Dicom Grid)is a software company that offers solutions (Ambra Suite and Ambra Services)for medical image sharing of DICOM and non-DICOM data between patients,physicians,and hospitals.CCRMC’s Radiology unit will utilize the digital medical image communication platform to share patient medical studies with other medical study partners,such as third-party imaging providers and five regional healthcare organizations.This solution reduces the need to use compact discs.It significantly improves the time it takes for CCRMC's Radiology unit to receive patient medical studies,and via automation,reduces the time to process the medical studies and make them available to health care providers.This Contract CONTRA COSTA COUNTY Printed on 7/14/2025Page 1 of 2 powered by Legistar™ File #:25-1377,Version:1 the time to process the medical studies and make them available to health care providers.This Contract supports CCRMC’s management of its DICOM imaging objects securely and in compliance with Health Insurance Portability and Accountability Act (HIPAA) regulations.

Wright Mechanical Equipment LLC in an amount not to exceed $18,149, and ACCEPT terms and conditions for the purchase of Aaon rooftop unit part replacements and backdraft damper for Contra Costa Regional Medical Center.

Wright Mechanical Equipment LLC ☒Recommendation of the County Administrator ☐ Recommendation of Board Committee RECOMMENDATIONS: APPROVE and AUTHORIZE the Purchasing Agent, or designee, to execute on behalf of the Interim Health Services Director, a one-time purchase order with Norman S. Wright Mechanical Equipment LLC in an amount not to exceed $18,149 and ACCEPT terms and conditions for the purchase of Aaon rooftop unit (RTU) part replacements and Backdraft Damper for Contra Costa Regional Medical Center (CCRMC). FISCAL IMPACT: Approval of this action will result in a one-time expenditure of up to $18,149 and will be funded by Hospital Enterprise Fund I revenues. BACKGROUND: Norman S. Wright Mechanical Equipment Corporation, now Norman S. Wright Mechanical Equipment LLC was established in 1906, is a premier supplier of HVAC (Heating, Ventilation, and Air Conditioning) equipment and services, specializing in high-quality mechanical and air distribution solutions for commercial, industrial, and institutional applications. Aaon RTU parts are replacement components for rooftop HVAC units, including compressors, fan motors, coils, and control boards, ensuring efficient operation. A backdraft damper is a device that prevents air from flowing in the wrong direction, maintaining proper ventilation and air pressure. Both components are essential for the smooth operation and maintenance of HVAC systems in commercial and industrial settings. It is essential to have spare parts readily available on-site to ensure preparedness for any unexpected equipment failure. Given that these parts are for our pharmacy’s hazardous compounding room, it is critical to have them on hand to avoid delays associated with ordering, as it can take up to a month or longer to receive the necessary CONTRA COSTA COUNTY Printed on 7/15/2025Page 1 of 2 powered by Legistar™ File #:25-1385,Version:1 components. In the past, equipment failure in this area rendered the compounding room unusable, forcing the hospital to rely on outside facilities for the preparation of chemotherapy drugs. This situation caused significant delays in patient care, underscoring the importance of having spare parts immediately available to prevent future disruptions. Purchases are subjected to Norman S. Wright Equipment LLC’s terms and conditions, which obligate the County to indemnify, defend, and hold harmless the vendor from claims arising out of the equipment provided by the vendor. The vendor’s terms and conditions permit the vendor to recover attorneys’ fees and costs in the event of collection efforts. In no event will the vendor’s liability exceed 250% of the amount paid to the vendor, and the county waives special and consequential damages. Approval of this request will allow Norman S. Wright Mechanical Equipment LLC to provide the necessary Aaon RTU part replacements and backdraft damper components, ensuring the continued optimal performance and efficiency of the HVAC systems. CONSEQUENCE OF NEGATIVE ACTION: If this action is not approved, CCRMC will fail to maintain the necessary equipment and spare parts required to ensure the continuous operation of critical healthcare services. This could lead to potential delays in patient care, increased reliance on external facilities, and disruptions in key clinical processes, ultimately compromising patient safety and treatment timeline.

FISCAL IMPACT: Approval of this action will result in additional annual expenditures of $307,875, which includes $186,572 in additional benefit and retirement costs, and will be funded 100% by Contra Costa Health Plan Enterprise Fund II. BACKGROUND: Contra Costa Health (CCH) is actively implementing substantial system changes to enhance transparency, modernity, and quality in its operations. The primary motivation is to advance a health department that can effectively navigate the evolving structural, economic, and policy landscape reshaping healthcare in California and across the nation. Recent vacancies and retirement announcements among key CCH leadership have accelerated efforts to address leadership needs promptly. CONTRA COSTA COUNTY Printed on 7/15/2025Page 1 of 3 powered by Legistar™ File #:RES 2025-115,Version:1 CCH hired Alvarez & Marsal (A&M), a top consulting firm, to conduct an organizational review focused on enhancing clarity, integration, accountability, and leadership needs across our health system. A key deliverable of A&M's contract was to complete an executive salary survey report to help CCH better understand competitive compensation across similar public healthcare organizations within California. The findings presented to both the County Administrator and the Human Resources Director reflect that the recommended salary included in this action is appropriate for the current market. This action requests reallocation of the salary range for the Chief Executive Officer, Contra Costa Health Plan- Exempt classification. By nature of their role in the organization all incumbents are expected to stand ready to report to work at any time. The incumbent will be expected to stand ready to report to work outside of their normal work hours and the proposed new salary range takes such work into account instead of continuing to have on call duty pay and call back time pay. Resolution No. 2025-115 amends Section 40.10 of the Unrepresented Management Benefits Resolution to remove classification of Chief Executive Officer, Contra Costa Health Plan-Exempt from the list of designated classifications eligible for on call duty pay and call back time pay. CONSEQUENCE OF NEGATIVE ACTION: If not approved, this classification will not reflect competitive compensation for healthcare and community health industries.

FISCAL IMPACT: This action would result in an approximate annual cost of $24,456. It will be entirely funded by the General Fund. BACKGROUND: The Probation Department has for some time been going through a period of growth, and will continue to do so for the foreseeable future. A significant part of this growth includes the expansion of locations within Probation’s portfolio, and the projects that are attached to such expansions, including the planning, design, bidding, and execution of all phases related to the construction or remodeling of capital projects. As a result of our department’s expansion and its associated projects, it has become apparent that there is a need for a Program and Projects Coordinator. The individual acting as the Program and Projects Coordinator liaises with other County departments and the County’s Administrator’s Office on capital projects to develop project specifications, and direct facilities maintenance staff and private sector technical consultants as needed. At the request of the Probation Department, a classification study was conducted for the position of Materiel Manager position #719, in the Probation Programs unit of the department. Additionally, a comparison of the CONTRA COSTA COUNTY Printed on 7/15/2025Page 1 of 2 powered by Legistar™ File #:25-1410,Version:1 duties and responsibility of the current class specification of Materiel Manager (VCGA) and several other class specifications within the County was performed. After evaluation, it was determined that the current job duties and responsibilities being performed by the incumbent are necessary for the success of the Department, and are outside the scope of the Materiel Manager (VCGA) classification. The Human Resources Department has determined that the position and incumbent be reclassified to the Program and Projects Coordinator (APHA) classification. Significant upcoming projects include the demolition of the old Juvenile Hall, relocation and maintenance of the west county office, construction of a new east county office, development of a community-based step-down program, and significant upgrades to Juvenile Hall. These tasks are critical and essential for maintaining the functionality and upkeep of Probation facilities, ensuring public spaces are safe, operational and effectively meet the evolving needs of the County and Department. CONSEQUENCE OF NEGATIVE ACTION: Without a position and incumbent in the requested classification, many Probation Department projects that significantly benefit the community and clientele will likely encounter roadblocks or delays.

FISCAL IMPACT: This position will be 100% Remote Access Network (RAN) Board funded. BACKGROUND: Currently, the ID unit is managed by Records, and while this has been facilitated satisfactorily, having a manager specific to the ID Unit is preferable. Due to the unique requirements and skillset of the ID Unit, having an ID Manager with that knowledge base would help with day-to-day operations. This will allow for a second manager’s position within Records and ID to help with personnel issues, vacancies, scheduling, etc. The workload and cost associated with the change, is minimal, and this better supports the needs and requirements of the Office of the Sheriff. CONSEQUENCE OF NEGATIVE ACTION: If this action is not approved, it will impede the organizational structure of the Office of the Sheriff.

RESCIND Resolution 23-606 which authorized a Chief Financial Officer differential to the Deputy Director of Health Services classification. FISCAL IMPACT: Approval of this action will result in additional annual expenditures of $212,568, including $79,713 in retirement and benefit costs, and will be funded by Hospital Enterprise Fund I. BACKGROUND: On October 24, 2023, the Board of Supervisors approved the addition of one (1) Deputy Director of Health Services - Exempt (VCB4) position (C.27) to serve as the Chief Financial Officer within the Health Services Department. Position #20078 created in the action has never been filled. Additionally, on November 7, 2023, Resolution 23-606 (C.42) revised Section IV.41. of Management Benefits Resolution No. 23-554, creating a 7.5% Chief Financial Officer differential for a designated employee in the CONTRA COSTA COUNTY Printed on 7/15/2025Page 1 of 2 powered by Legistar™ File #:25-1412,Version:1 Deputy Director of Health Services-Exempt (VCB4) classification. Approval of this action will remove the differential for this classification. Since October 1, 2024, the Department has utilized contracted services through Alvarez & Marsal Healthcare Industry Group, LLC (C. 65 on November 5, 2024) for all day-to-day financial operations through September 30, 2025. Separately, the Department also contracted Alvarez & Marsal Healthcare Industry Group, LLC to conduct an organizational review focused on enhancing clarity, integration, accountability, and leadership needs across our health system. A key deliverable of A&M's contract was to complete an executive salary survey report to help CCH better understand competitive compensation across similar public healthcare organizations within California. The findings presented to both the County Administrator and the Human Resources Director reflect that the recommended salary included in this action is appropriate and representative of the current market. This action requests the addition of one (1) position in the newly established classification of Health Services Chief Financial Officer-Exempt, which will allow the Department to recruit for a permanent county employee to oversee financial operations, including but not limited to: financial planning, fiscal policy, capital project planning, control finance activities, and coordination of the Enterprise, Special Districts, and Health Service Area budgets. This newly established classification will not be entitled to On-call or Call Back Pay. CONSEQUENCE OF NEGATIVE ACTION: If not approved, the Department will not have the proper classification to recruit for a permanent position.

FISCAL IMPACT: The Contract Amendments have an aggregate cost of $834,279 during FY 2024-2025 and are 100% funded with State AB 109 Public Safety Realignment revenue BACKGROUND: In 2011, the California Legislature passed, and the Governor signed into law the Public Safety Realignment Act (Assembly Bill 109), which transfers responsibility for supervising specific low-level inmates and parolees from the California Department of Corrections and Rehabilitation (CDCR) to counties. Assembly Bill 109 (AB 109) took effect on October 1, 2011, and realigns three major areas of the criminal justice system. On a prospective basis, the legislation Transfers the location of incarceration for lower-level offenders (specified non -violent, non-serious, non-sex offenders) from state prison to local county jail and provides for an expanded role for post-release supervision for these offenders; Transfers responsibility for post-release supervision of lower-level offenders (those released from prison after having served a sentence for a non-violent, non-serious, and non-sex offense) from the state to the county level by creating a new category of supervision called Post- Release Community Supervision (PRCS); and Transfers the housing responsibility for parole and PRCS revocations to local jail custody. Criminal Justice Realignment is a paradigm shift for California. Achievement of realignment goals depends on the commitment and collaboration of justice partners and community-based organizations. These contracts provide several realignment services critical to supporting clients in their rehabilitation and reintegration into the community. Some of these services include providing support for employment, housing, peer mentoring, family reunification, legal services, and a network system of services. On December 1, 2023, the Community Corrections Partnership (CCP) adopted a FY 24-25 AB 109 Public Safety Realignment Budget for recommendation to the Board of Supervisors. The recommended budget included allocations for the community programs budget amendments. The Public Protection Committee (PPC) of the Board of Supervisors considered and approved the recommended budget during its February 5, 2024, meeting. In addition to the cost-of-living increase, $210,000 of the $834,279 came from the AB109 reserve fund and was approved as a one-time expenditure by the Board of Supervisors during its June 25, 2024 meeting. CONSEQUENCE OF NEGATIVE ACTION: Negative Action could result in a disruption in services to the County’s reentry population as these community partners have continued to provide services while facing higher costs.

The northerly section of Clark Road was re-aligned (from San Pablo Dam Road to Fable Court)by a grant deed and declared a County road by the Board of Supervisors,April 25,1939 (506 OR 378).The original northerly alignment was abandoned July 7,1949 (1411 OR 121).Subdivisions “Canyon Park”(36 Maps 20)and “Green Acres” (41 Maps 35) were developed on each side of the realigned road. In September 1953 the “Jana Bonds Tract (52 Maps 5)was approved.This map dedicated a 5’widening along the West side of Clark Road (50’wide)even though that portion of Clark Road was not a County maintained road.On January 4,1957,the County Board of Supervisors accepted two sequential 10-foot-wide strips of land along the west side of Clark Road (40’wide)lying south of the southerly line of the “Jana Bond Tract”(2909 OR 55 and 2909 OR 57). Again, that portion of Clark Road was not a County maintained road.

CONSEQUENCE OF NEGATIVE ACTION: The portion of Clark Road beyond the current County road will not be part of the County Maintained Roads system and will not be eligible for State gas tax funds.The County project to pave this road may be delayed, and funding will not be available for the project. c: J.

FISCAL IMPACT: 100% General Fund for all lease expenses BACKGROUND: The Sheriff-Coroner has occupied this location since February 1996 as a substation for its patrol activities in the south-central area of Contra Costa County.Approving a Fourth Amendment to lease will provide for the continued occupancy for the Sheriff-Coroner at this location to support law enforcement activities and services to the residents of this area. CONSEQUENCE OF NEGATIVE ACTION: Not authorizing a Fourth Amendment to lease for the Sheriff-Coroner’s continued occupancy at 150 Alamo Plaza,Suites B and C,Alamo,would require the Sheriff-Coroner to either not have a substation in the south- central area of the county, or to find a new location at an additional expense.

If, notwithstanding the foregoing, liability can be imposed on LN, Customer agrees that LN's aggregate liability for any and all losses or injuries arising out of any act or omission of LN in connection with anything to be done or furnished under these Master Terms, regardless of the cause of the loss or injury, and regardless of the nature of the legal or equitable right claimed to have been violated, shall never exceed the amount of fees actually paid by Customer to LN under this Agreement during the six (6) month period preceding the event that gave rise to such loss or injury.

Upon written notification by LN of such restrictions, Customer agrees to comply with such restrictions. 22. PRIVACY PRINCIPLES. With respect to personally identifiable information regarding consumers, the parties further agree as follows: LN has adopted the "LN Data Privacy Principles" ("Principles"), which may be modified when necessary to address new legal or legislative requirements or to include recent industry best practices recognizing the importance of appropriate privacy protections for consumer data, and Customer agrees that Customer (including its directors, officers, employees or agents) will comply with the Principles or Customer’s own comparable privacy principles, policies, or practices.
