2. General Services-East County Beautification $145,000
This is a continuation of a program that has been provided in East County for several
years. In conjunction with workfare crews, the General Services department provides
assistance with community clean-ups, roadside clean up throughout the unincorporated
areas of East County, and tree planting programs. This program provides for the
removal of abandoned garbage, appliances, and in some cases, vehicles from the
roadsides.
3. East County Municipal Advisory Councils $25,000
There are currently four Municipal Advisory Councils (Bay Point, Bethel Island, Byron
and Knightsen) in East Contra Costa County. In addition, the Town of Discovery Bay
Community Services District fulfills the responsibilities of a MAC for the Discovery Bay
Community. Each of the members of the various MACs serves on a voluntary basis.
These funds provide funding for expenses resulting from the East County quarterly All-
MAC meetings. This also provides funding for rent in some cases, secretarial services,
as well as assistance in conducting community activities and services such as copying
charges, map preparation and other miscellaneous costs.
4. Bay Point Resident Deputy Program $201,055
This funding provides for two resident deputies dedicated to the Bay Point area. This
funding pays salary and benefits attributed to the deputies and does not include any
operational expenses such as vehicle costs, uniform allowances, etc.
5. Community Code Enforcement Pilot Program $100,000
These funds will provide the necessary match with the Division of Codes and Standards
of the Department of Housing and Community Development (HCD) to establish a
program that would substantially reduce the incidence of substandard housing through
the use of creative and coordinated techniques of code enforcement involving an
interdepartmental approach. This program will be monitored and administered by the
County Administrator's Office.
6. Code Enforcement Program $250,000
Funding for this program provides dedicated personnel to the code enforcement
program focusing on the unincorporated areas of East County. These funds will be
used to support two dedicated code enforcement inspectors, part-time clerk and
abatement funds.
The planning process for future allocations is proposed as follows:
1. An evaluation of the six programs currently funded will. be initiated in January to
determine whether they should receive support in 2002-2003;
2. A solicitation of proposals will be initiated in March for the priority categories established
and proposals will be evaluated in April and May; and
3. A financial plan will be presented to the Finance Committee and Board in June, for
implementation on July 1, 2002.
On October 15, the Finance Committee reviewed and approved the funding program as reflected
above. The Committee agreed that the six programs should continue to provide services in the
type and manner as provided in the past. The Committee requested staff to identify the time and
cost of services provided by the six programs in the East County areas realigned into District III.
Finally, the Committee agreed that each program will undergo on evaluation in early 2002 to
determine continuation funding in 2002-2003, and may receive adjustments to their allocation or
may not receive funding.
