SPECIFIC REQUEST(S)OR RECOMMENDATION(S)&BACKGROUND AND JUSTIFICATION
RECOMMENDATION(S)':
APPROVE and AUTHORIZE the Agricultural Commissioner, or his designee, to execute
a contract with the California Department of Food and Agriculture and the County.
Contract No. 08-0567 proposes to reimburse the County in an amount not to exceed
$23,656 for high-risk pest exclusion activities.
FISCAL IMPACT:
This agreement provides revenue and will not result in an increase in net county cost or
negatively impact the Department budget.
BACKGROUND:
Legislation in 1997 encouraged a study to be conducted to evaluate the statutory and
regulatory responsibilities and appropriate funding sources for county agricultural
commissioner programs. The study placed priority upon the pest exclusion program
and identified opportunities for improving and funding mandated activities.
In 1998 legislation was passed as a result of this study. The legislation was geared
toward funding high-risk exclusion activities performed by the county agricultural
commissioners throughout the State.
Contract No. 08-0567 sets activity levels that are designed for Contra Costa County
based on historical workloads, costs and a negotiated work plan to maintain optimal
service levels. The agreement improves the service level of high-risk exclusion
activities in the county.
