SPECIFIC REQUESTS OR RECOMMENDAT#ON(S)&BACKGROUND AND JUSTIFICATION
I. RECOMMENDATION
DETERMINE that there is a need to continue the emergency action taken by the Board on April 27,
1999 pursuant to Public Contract Code Sections 20134 and 22050, to expand the computer room. at 595
Center Avenue, Suite 210,Martinez for Health Services.
II. FINANCIAL IMPACT
Funding for this project has been budgeted.
III. BACKGROUND
A. The computer room expansion involves remodeling a portion of an existing building for Health
Service's two primary patient health care computer systems: the Contra Costa Health Plan
Management Information System ("CCHP MIS"), and the Primary Patient Care Delivery and
Billing System. After remodeling is complete, Health Services will install, test, and make
operational these two computer systems.
B. The Health Services Department has determined that the current estimated remodeling completion

C. In addition, an October 1999 remodeling completion date will not meet the September 1999
deadline established by the State Department of Health Services (DHS) for a Y2K. compliant
CCHP MIS system.
D. The continuous operation of these two systems is vital to Health Services' ability to deliver health
care and treatment services to their patients, and is therefore necessary for the life, health, welfare,
and safety of the citizens who rely on Health Services for critical health care services, medical
treatment, and emergency medical services.
E. Consequently, on April 27, 1999 (Agenda Item C.72), the Board 1) found that an emergency
exists, 2) delegated authority to the General Services Director to proceed in the most expeditious
manner with the Computer Room Expansion, 595 Center Avenue, Suite 210, Martinez for health
Services, 3) directed the General Services Director to make reports to enable the Board to review
the emergency actions and to determine that there is a need to continue the action and 4) declared
that the project, as an emergency, is exempt from the provisions of the California Environmental
Quality Act.
F. The condition that the Board found to be an emergency on April 27 continues to exist. Therefore,
it is necessary to continue the emergency action previously taken by the Board so that the work can
be completed in the shortest time possible.
G. On April 27, 1999 the Board approved a consulting services agreement with Marcy Li Wong
Architects for architectural and engineering services for the Computer Doom Expansion. On April
22, 1999 a First Amendment was issued to amend Appendix B, Paragraph A of the consulting
services agreement to include Classifications and rates specified in Marcy Li Wong Architect's
1999 Hourly Billing Rates and Reimbursables Schedule. There was no increase in the payment
limit. On July 8, 1999 a Second Amendment was issued for additional engineering design services
due to increased project scope and construction administration services. The revised agreement
payment limit is $97,900.00.
H. Contracts for the emergency work have been negotiated. A contract was issued to the Contractor,
RGM and Associates, Inc., on :tune 17, 1999, with an effective date of May 10, 1999 and a
payment limit of$837,982.40. On June 25, 1999, a formal notice to proceed was issued to confirm
the contract starting date of March 10, 1999 and a project completion date of September 15, 1999.
1. Change order No. 1 for $1,011.63 was issued August 26, 1999, to make window changes and
revise the generator enclosure. The revised payment limit is $838,993.63. The completion time
was increased by seven days. Additional change order items are pending.
J. Pre-testing of new emergency generator and electrical systems occurred on October 5, 1999.
Activation of new generator and deactivation of old generator occurred on October 10, 1999.
Inspection by Consultants and County was done on October 14, 1999. "Punch List" corrections
are underway. Construction is proceeding satisfactorily and was approximately 98% complete as
of October 19, 1999. Substantial completion is expected by the end of October.

RECOMMENDATIONS
Authorize proposed transfers of land and related residential
improvements for augmentation to residential lots and related
improvements for specified lots within the Blackhawk development
pursuant to an approved amendment to the Blackhawk Final
Development Plan, File #DP983022, in accord with development plans
on file4with the Community Development Department .
FISCAL IMPACT
None.
BACKGROUND/REASQNS FOR-`M?ECt NA QNS
This matter concerns a request by the Blackhawk Homeowners
Association to allow the transfer of portions of common open space
parcels for attachment to several existing private (residential
lots) within the Blackhawk development . The Blackhawk development
was originally approved by the County in the mid-1.970s under the
Planned Unit (P®1) zoning district and approved Final Development
Plan. Blackhawk is a guarded access, clustered residential
development community. Virtually all of the lots adjoin either
common open space area owned by the HOA, or a commercial golf
course within the development .
As a condition of approval for the project, the development was
required to convey development rights over the common area to the
County. This action was intended to protect the common open space
area and assure that planning concerns in the development process
were adequately addressed.

Several Blackhawk residents wish to acquire additional land from
the common open space to augment their lot areas, and in some
instances provide for related residential improvements . The
proposals are seeking lot line adjustments affecting 9 residential
lots . The proposals involve a marginal increase in the lot sizes
(none exceeding 10, 000 square feet in area. The owner of the
common area, the Blackhawk Homeowners Association, is supportive of
these proposed transfers of land and improvements. Last year,
several affected residents and the Blackhawk HOA filed an
application with the County to amend the Final Development Plan,
County File ##DP983022 to allow for these project modifications .
Staff has viewed the proposed changes and is satisfied that they
will not result in substantial impacts to the community, and
determined that for purposes of compliance with the California
Environmental Quality Act, the proposal is Categorically Exempt
(Class 5; minor alterations in land use limitations) . Last summer,
the County distributed notices of the proposed changes to the
owners of nearby properties that the County was considering
rendering a decision on this matter, and providing ten days in
which to request that the matter be heard. No requests for hearing
were received from that notice.
The request also pertains to proposed landscape and fencing
improvements relative to proposed landscape easements for two
parcels .
Zoning &dmi n strator _Decision
On October 21, 1999, after determining that the proposed changes do
not constitute a substantial modification to the Final Development
Plan, pursuant to Section 84-66 . 1604 (a) of the Ordinance Code, the
Zoning Administrator conditionally approved the proposed amendment
to the Final Development Plan. The approval will become final on
Monday, November 1, 1999 unless an appeal is filed by that time.
Board Authorization fQr Use of Dee!d-Reutricted AKea
To address the existing encumbrance held by the County over the
affected land, the approval was made subject to a requirement that
the Board of Supervisors first approve the proposed transfer of
land and related proposed improvements .
Disclosure fQr Processing of Future SimilaK 2roposals
The approval also informs the HOA that County staff wishes to
change the manner in which future similar requests are to be
processed. The approval requires that the HOA notify prospective
applicants that the Community Development Department will
discourage similar incremental requests to acquire and use the
common open space for private lot area, and that instead any future
proposals to the County should lead with a comprehensive analysis
of planning and environmental considerations by the HOA and the
County for the entire project .
The Blackhawk HOA has accepted the terms of the Zoning
Administrator approval as reflected in a letter dated April 26,
1999 . No appeal of the Zoning Administrator approval is
anticipated, but should one be timely filed, then staff would
inform the Board before the Board considers this matter.
Consequence of Inaction or Denial- of PrQposal by- the Board
In the event that the request were to be denied, then the proposed
transfers of land would not satisfy a requirement of the amended
Final Development Plan, and the County would not be authorized to
approve any related lot line adjustment applications. The existing
dimension of lots would remain unaltered.

FINDINGS AND CONDITIONS OF APPROVAL FOR MODIFICATION
TO THE IILACKHAWK FINAL DEVELOPMENT PLAN AUTHORIZING
SPECIFIED EXPANSION OF RESIDENTIAL LOTS INTO OPEN SPACE
PARCELS, COUNTY FILE #DP983022 (Hanson/Chan/Blackhawk HOA)
FINDINGS
A. wired Finding - The proposed modification is consistent with the intent and purpose
of the P--1 district.
Project Ei iU - The proposed modifications allow relatively small reductions in the
common open space area that are not disruptive to a cohesive development including
the relationship between open space and residential area, provided that future open
space encroachment proposals consider the broader implications of the cumulative
effect of the erosion of the open space areas within the project.
B. Required Finding - The proposed modification is compatible with uses in the vicinity,
both inside and outside the district.
Project Fia&U - Each of the lot line adjustments authorized by this approval involve
relatively small adjustments in the exterior boundaries of these projects. Prior to this
approval, notices of the proposed changes were distributed to the owners of nearby
property, none of which resulted in a request for hearing.
[Ref. § 84-66.1804(b) of the Ordinance Code]

ACKNOWLEDGEMENT TO ACCOMPANY PROPOSALS
TO THE COUNTY
TO EXPAND PRIVATE LOTS INTO COMMON OPEN AREA
WITHIN THE BLACKHAWK RESIDENTIAL PROJECT
Community Development Department
Contra Costa County
This document is to be used where the Blackhawk Homeowners Association (HOA) and the owner of a
private residential lot within Blackhawk are proposing to transfer a portion of a common open space
parcel within Blackhawk to the residential lot. When such a lot line adjustment (LLA) is proposed to
the County, it shall be accompanied by this statement after it has been filled out by both a duly
authorized representative of the HOA and the affected residential lot owner.
When parties initially inquire to the HOA on a proposed LLA, the Association will provide this
document to them. If the HOA agrees to the LLA, then a representative of the HOA shall complete this
form and provide it to the affected lot owner to fill out and submit to the Countywith the appropriate
development permit application.
Blackhawk Planning Back round
A. In the mid-1970's, the County approved the Blackhawk residential project Final Development
Plan under the Planned Unit(P-1)District. Prior to its approval, the County undertook an
extensive analysis of various environmental impacts of the proposed project in an Environmental
Impact Report which assessed such factors as geotechnical, biologic, land use, aesthetic, and
archaeological impacts.
B. As a result of that environmental review and review of the project, the approved Final
Development Plan provided that a major portion of the Blackhawk project would be retained in
open space parcels. To further assure appropriate protection of the project open space in an
undeveloped condition, the County approval provided that the development rights for the open
space parcels would be grant deeded to the County.
C. Unless otherwise authorized, proposed improvements to, or transfer of land from, the open
space parcels requires that the interested parties file with and obtain from the County:
1) an application to amend the Final Development Plan; and
2) Board of Supervisors authorization for the proposed changes within the deed restricted
open space parcels.
Where a transfer of land is involved, an application for a lot line adjustment must also be
approved by the Community Development Department, and properly executed.
Moreover, pursuant to the requirements of the California Environmental Quality Act, it is the
County responsibility to fully assess potential environmental impacts of any such proposal
including cumulative as well as project-level, indirect as well as direct.
County Planning Agency Position on Lot Line Adjustment Proposals
A. Ai2pr ach Preferred by the County - It is the County Planning Agency position that no new
LLA's should be authorized until the HOA has processed an amendment to the Final
Development Plan that provides for an overall plan that considers potential expansion of all
private lots adjoining open space areas. Such a plan would consider soil stability conditions,
grading restrictions, drainage, structure placement, privacy considerations, fence design, and
appropriate protection of wildlife and mature trees. Before hearing such a proposal, the County
would conduct appropriate environmental review and provide notice to all residents within
Blackhawk, and other potentially interested parties.
B. Processing of Individual LLA's in Absence of an Overall Approved Plan In the absence of an
overall plan proposal from the HOA for accommodating LLA's throughout the project that has
been approved by the County, the County Community Development Department will discourage
but still accept individual LLA proposals. Due to the cumulative effect of such proposals, they
will be treated as a substantial modification to the Final Development Plait which will require a
noticed public hearing. The full cost of processing an application with the County must be borne
by the applicant, even if the application is denied.
Any proposal will initially require application to amend the Final Development Plan. The
submittal shall include the following:
1) Completion and submittal of this acknowledgement form.
2) A written statement from the HOA on why it would not be reasonable for the County to
require processing of an overall plan proposal before considering the current application.
3) Other standard application submittals(site plans, application forms, fees, notification
materials, etc.)which the applicant can secure after consulting with the Community
Development Department.
In signing the below form, the interested parties are acknowledging that they have read and understand
the above information.
