On March 18, 1997, our Committee met with Belinda Smith, Program Manager for the CDBG Programs in the Community Development Department, and Manny Ungson, Economic Development Program Manager for the County. We discussed the attached report from Ms. Smith which outlines the proposed charge, vision statement and mission statement for the Economic Development Committee. We have explored other alternatives for accomplishing the work of the Economic Development Committee without having to have an additional advisory committee and have been convinced that the use of the Economic Development Committee is the best and most effective method of accomplishing the County's economic development goals. There continue to be three vacant seats on the Committee, for a banking representative, a small business representative, and a non-profit agency representative. Staff are continuing to recruit for these vacancies. To date, the Board of Supervisors has restricted the activities of the Economic Development Committee to the economic development activities of the CDBG until more of the Committee members were in place. We believe that since six of the nine seats are now filled, it is appropriate to open the role of the Economic Development Committee to all aspects of economic development which are consistent with the attached charge, vision statement and mission statement for the Committee. -2- CONTRA COSTA COUNTY COMMUNITY DEVELOPMENT DEPARTMENT HOUSING AND REDEVELOPMENT DIVISION Date: March 18, 1997 TO: Internal Operations Committee Supervisors Rogers and Gerber FROM: Economic Development Committee By: Belinda Smith, CDBG Program-Mariager SUBJECT: Mission and Vision Statement of the Economic Development Committee BACKGROUND The Economic Development Committee (Committee) was created pursuant to the Board Order of June 27, 1995. The charge of the Committee is to work with the County Community Development Department to develop recommendations regarding the use of Community Development Block Grant (CDBG) funds and to act as a policy advisory body to the Board of Supervisors economic development matters referred to it by the Board. The nine member committee is composed of representatives of education, small business, public utility, labor, banking, training, and non-profit organization. Up until October of 1996, due to limited membership, the Committee has focused on CDBG related matters. With an increase of Committee membership to six and the hiring by the Community Development Department of an Economic Development Program Manager, in October 1996, the Committee began work to develop a Mission Statement and establish goals for the Committee in their capacity as an advisory body to the Board of Supervisors. At the November 18, 1996 Internal Operations Committee, staff was directed to continue to recruit members for the Committee, establish communication between the Committee and other advisory bodies dealing with economic development, and work with the Committee to finalize the mission statement. Staff was requested to return to the Internal Operations Committee for their review of the Mission statement. CHARGE OF THE ECONOMIC DEVELOPMENT COMMITTEE The Committee has been very diligent in its efforts to develop its role as an advisory Committee that can effectively assist the unincorporated county in achieving economic development objectives as directed by the Board of Supervisors. The Committee also felt it was necessary to make some distinction between their responsibilities in economic development to the unincorporated county and their role as an advisory body for CDBG and its service to the Urban County'. The charge of the Committee, and the vision and mission statement (attached) were approved and referred to the 'The Urban County is comprised of the unincorporated area of the County and the cities of Brentwood, Clayton, Danville, EI Cerrito, Hercules, Lafayette, Martinez, Moraga, Orinda, Pinole, Pleasant Hill, San Pablo, and San Ramon. Internal Operations Committee by the Committee on February 5, 1997. Dependent on approval of the Statement the Committee will be developing a work plan for FY 1997/98. MEMBERSHIP Staff is currently seeking qualified applicants to fill vacant seats for the banking, non-profit, and small business (1) representatives. Staff, through a variety of methods including, published newspaper notices, announcements at commerce and industry group meetings, and solicitation recommendations from cities, has attempted to fill the last three vacancies on the Committee. At the same time staff has been sensitive to maintaining gender, ethnicity and geographic balance to the Committee. The adoption of a charge and mission statement is expected will generate new interest in Committee membership and result in the remaining positions will be filled. A roster of the current membership is attached. COMMUNICATION WITH OTHER ADVISORY BODIES The Internal Operation Committee raised issues of communication between the Committee and other advisory bodies dealing with economic development such as the Private Industry Council and the Economic Partnership. The Committee mailing list has been expanded to include several other advisory bodies, including the Private Industry Council, the Economic Partnership, Urban County cities, and non-profit organizations. In addition, Manny Ungson, the County Economic Development Program Manager, regularly attends meetings of the Economic Partnership and other professional business organizations and therefore maintains a vital communication link with those bodies. Further, the County Administrator is on the Board of Directors of the Contra Costa Economic Partnership. RECOMMENDATIONS ♦ Adopt the charge, vision and mission statement as submitted by the Economic Development Committee. ♦ Direct staff to continue to solicit membership that reflects diversity with respect to ethnicity, gender, and geographic balance.

The Community Development Department estimates a shortfall of administrative funds for FY 1997/98 in the amount of 75,700. Administrative costs are increasing due to inflation and cost-of- living adjustment, and due to the evolving and complex federal oversight responsibilities the County must adhere to. In addition, the total amount has been decreasing in an absolute sense, therefore the amount derived by the Board's adopted percentage allocation (see below) has been dropping. The number of funded projects, and therefore the number of contracts to administer, has not been dropping. The transfer of funds as recommended will permit the Board to adhere to its adopted CDBG program allocation formula for FY 1997/98 as follows : Housing 50% Economic Development 15% OPEN 5% Public Service 15% Administration 138 BOS Contingency 2% The remaining $35,000 in recovered funds are to be added to the Board contingency for allocation with the FY 1997/98 CDBG grant. hs bs/c:data/wp60/refv ds.BO G CJDI Attachment A Project # 18-40* Early Childhood Mental Health $ 6 ,500 18-38 Phoenix Programs $ 25, 000 Acquire Facility 19-30 Amerson Corporation $ 10, 000 Recreation Center Renovation 20-63 United Concillo West $ 6, 000 Information and Referral 20-54 Neighborhood House of N.R. $ 1, 237 Senior Citizens Center 20-32 UCSSO $ 20, 000 Delta Youth Center 21-2069 Catholic Charities English Action $ 556 Asian Literacy 21-1963 Marsh Creek Vista Homeowner Assn. $ 10 Sweat Equity 21-55 City of San Ramon $ 6, 780 Villa San Ramon 21-57 Pacific Community Services $ 2,088 Housing Counseling 21-66 Family and Community Services $ 739 Senior Escort 21-67 UCSSO $ 1,484 Brentwood Martinez Referral 21-70 Catholic Charities English Action $ 9,500 Family Literacy Program 21-72 Hospice $ 5, 378 AIDS Patient Care 21-84 United Concillo West $ 4, 000 21-95 Program Income $ 11, 388 $110, 668 * Year 18 - FY 1992/93 Year 19 - FY 1993/94 Year 20 - FY 1994/95 Year 21 - FY 1995/96 /021 TO: TO: BOARD OF SUPERVISORS FROM: J.

This ordinance has been amended several times to bring it into conformance with the Contra Costa Transportation Authority's (CCTA) policy on TDM and to serve as the local implementation device for the Bay Area Air Quality Management District's Employer- based Trip Reduction Rule. This rule was invalidated by state law in 1996, and the Transportation Authority has revamped its TDM policy to require an ordinance that is based on voluntary compliance with trip reduction efforts. Each local jurisdiction in the County must amend its ordinance during this year to be in compliance with CCTA policy. c.M/0 TO: BOARD OF SUPERVISORS Contra ,.

First, it was decided that the current County requirement for patrol and investigation facilities was defined to narrowly, and left out essential support services such as dispatch and records. Second, the Committee felt a long term plan should be developed by the Sheriff and County Administrator. 0./oho CONTRA COSTA COUNTY GROWTH MANAGEMENT AND ECONOMIC DEVELOPMENT AGENCY DATE: March 11, 1997 TO: Finance Committee FROM: Community Development Staff SUBJECT: SHERIFF'S FACILITIES There is no current plan for long-term or mid-term Sheriff's Facilities. The Sheriff's Office has responded to immediate need or funding opportunity. Most of the budgetary emphasis in the Sheriff's Department has been placed on maintaining personnel and responding to hot spot crime areas. Adequate Sheriff s Facilities are a requirement for Measure C - 1988 sales tax dollars. There is a need to identify additional Sheriff facilities to accommodate approved and planned population growth. Failure to resolve this issue will jeopardize the County's 1.5 million dollar annual allocation in measure C-1988 sales tax dollars used for transportation purposes. The Board standard for police facilities, 155 sq. ft. per thousand, was adopted in 1991. Since 1991 a total of 211,687 square feet of new facilities have been added including the Richmond Detention facility, addition to the crime lab and addition to coroners office. These facilities do not count by the County standard because the County includes only patrol and investigation facilities in their standard. The County operation is viewed similar to a city and does not reflect the broader responsibility and function. The current top need is a new dispatch facility. The County may spend as much as 2 million dollars but receive no credit toward the Measure C goal. Current Problem 1996 totals for Measure C. Appropriate facilities need to be expanded by 858 square feet to meet the County's growth management standard for 1996. The Sheriffs Office does not wish to count temporary facilities as annexed because they may disappear quickly or they do not provide substation needs such as changing rooms, evidence lockers and temporary incarceration. They have been included in the count. Near-Term Conditions 1997 - 2001 There is a near term need of another 4,219 square feet in patrol investigation facilities if projected growth occurs by 2001. ivy No program of sheriff facility expansion is provided that will address existing or near-term needs by 2001. Opportunities available to expand sheriff facilities in the near term include: Dougherty Valley has a condition of approval to pay$61 per unit for construction of sheriff station facilities. (These facilities have to benefit the immediate area.) Discovery Bay West has a condition of approval to fund 50%of a community center which could include sheriff facilities. Pending development applications with sheriff facilities include, the Oakley Downtown Specific Plan,North Richmond Senior Housing Project, and the Junction project at Pleasant Hill Bart. Long-Term Conditions 2001 - 2010 Long-term development allowed by the General Plan requires approximately 3623 square feet of sheriff facilities for patrol and investigative services. Opportunities to expand sheriff facilities in the long-term include: - Land dedication in the Cypress Corridor development agreement for public facilities. - County-owned land at Lindsay flood control basin for public facilities. - County-owned land at West County Justice Center for expanded facilities. - County-owned land at Muir Road for expanded facilities. Sheriffs Office Concerns Growth Management Standard In reviewing the County's Capital Improvement Program for Provision of Parks and Sheriff's Facilities, we find the program does not adequately address the needs of the Sheriff's Office or the citizens who rely on this Office for public safety. We understand the Growth Management Standard of 155 square feet per 1000 population is intended to include only patrol and investigation space. Not only is this standard not an accurate reflection of the actual space devoted to patrol and investigation activities when the standard was developed, it does not include those essential functions necessary to deliver police services to the public such as dispatch and records. Although these functions are centrally located,they work interactively with patrol and investigation and should be considered in any facility needs. Another concern relates to the inclusion of the square footage from the storefront patrol annexes in the growth management standards. Multiples of these little storefronts do not to reduce the need for space in regional substations. The storefronts are intended primarily as a point of presence statement to the public. Merchants like them because they reduce minor crimes in the shopping center. They give the citizens the sense that police assistance is close at hand. But these annexes do not have enough space to function as patrol substations. They should not be used to mitigate the County's growth management standard. Likewise, space occupied by patrol staff in special district should not be included in satisfying the growth management standards because that space has been provided to offer enhanced services to the residents of the district at their expense. Patrol Substations We have included a prototype of a functional patrol facility. The facility must include such things as a locker room, a line up room, storage for evidence and equipment, administrative space, interview rooms, a temporary detention space, report writing space and secure space for vehicles. Operationally, the number of patrol facilities we can operate is limited because of the need for unified supervision and management, because of the need for our swom staff to share vehicles, equipment and information, and because of our limited staffing relative to the geographical areas served. We currently have four patrol substations in the west, east, central and south areas of the County. We do not foresee the number of substations changing. The Bay Station was temporarily moved to space in the West County Detention Facility when the latter opened and the old substation was closed. Although the location is suitable, the space is inadequate. Should the West County Detention Facility open its booking operation, the Bay Station will lose its space and need to be relocated in the same general area. The Central Station has been located in the Field Operations building in Martinez since 1989. The location is good,but the space is crowded. The Valley Station is located in leased space in an Alamo shopping center. Again, the location meets our operational needs, but the space is barely adequate. The Delta Station is located in an extremely old and inadequate building in Oakley. The general location meets our operational needs but much more space is needed. Future Needs We anticipate that we will not want to add more patrol substations in the foreseeable future. Rather our need is to expand and improve the existing substations. Using the prototype patrol station at about 9500 square feet,cost for site improvement,construction and project management is estimated to be about $3 million for each station. (The cost estimate was provided by the General Services Department Architectural Division and includes $100 per square foot for project design and management, $25 per square foot for site improvements and $175 per square foot for construction of an essential facility. D. Bell indicates the overhead can be reduced for new construction.) In addition,the Sheriff s Office needs to expand the existing Communications Center where dispatch services are provided. The Sheriff's Office has received a 2.4 million dollar grant to replace equipment in dispatch. Approximately 4000 more square feet of space is needed to house the equipment at an estimated cost of$2.2 million. It should be noted that design studies have been conducted for building a facility to house Sheriff's Administration and Records on the corner of Glacier Drive and Muir Road in Martinez. There is inadequate space in the County's Administration building for these functions (at 10,300 square feet). Approximately 40% of the administrative unit supports the Patrol and Investigation operations and the Records unit operates in direct support of Patrol and Investigations. Any long range facility planning should include the construction of a new Administration and Records facility. Additional operations that provide support to patrol and investigation have been provided to you in the inventory of Sheriff's Facilities. In the immediate term the Board has several options: 1. The Board can seek to rent, purchase or build an additional 858 square feet in the West County, East County, Martinez or Alamo facilities within 6 months. 2. The Board can seek to rent, purchase or build new facilities in any of the four (4) areas within 6 months. 3. The Board can modify the standard to include support facilities within the patrol and investigation definition such as dispatch 4. The Board can allocate available county buildings to house patrol and investigation activities. 5. The Board can adopt a capital improvement program that includes additional facilities to be developed within the next 5 years. 6. The Board can request the Sheriff,in cooperation with the CAO, to prepare a master plan that addresses the long term needs for patrol and investigation activities in the unincorporated area and evaluates potential revenue sources to fund implementation of the master plan. In the near term the Board should encourage a master plan for Sheriffs Facilities to be prepared. Preliminary information and concepts have been developed between Community Development and Sheriff's departments. The plan must be incorporated into a 5 year CIP.

ISIDORES CHURCH, DANVILLE Project No.: 7520-6B9L74-97 SPECIFIC REQUEST(S)OR RECOMMENDATION(S)&BACKGROUND AND JUSTIFICATION I. Recommended Action: 1. FIND, based on the evidence set forth below and as contained in the minutes of the Board meeting, pursuant to Public Contract Code Sections 22035 and 22050, that an emergency exists, commencing early January 1997, that the emergency will not permit a delay resulting from a competitive solicitation for bids, and that the action described in this order is necessary to respond to the emergency. 2. DELEGATE to the Chief Engineer the authority to proceed in the most expeditious manner to repair the area subject to bank failure to prevent further slippage in the area adjacent to the St. Isidores Church. 3. DIRECT the Chief Engineer to make reports to the Board of Supervisors, as required by Public Contract Code 22050, stating the reasons justifying why the emergency will not permit a delay resulting from competitive solicitation for bids and why the action is necessary to respond to the emergency, in order to enable the Board of Supervisors to review the emergency action and to determine that there is a need to continue the action. 4. DECLARE that the project, as an emergency, is exempt from the provisions of the California Environmental Quality Act under Resources Code Section 15269 of the State CEQA Guidelines.

DIRECT the Chief Engineer to file a Notice of Exemption with the County Clerk and to arrange for payment of the $25 filing fee. 6. RATIFY the actions of the County Administrator and the Chief Engineer taken to date in response to the creek bank failure. 7. WAIVE the County Minority Business Enterprise and Women Enterprise Program requirements for construction contracts, purchasing and professional service contracts. 8. DIRECT the Chief Engineer to take appropriate actions to provide opportunities for minority and women-owned businesses to participate in bidding on any contract work and/or materials, and in the selection of any consultants associated with the repair. 9. AUTHORIZE the Chief Engineer, or his designee, to sign on behalf of the Board of Supervisors any, and all, real property-related documents, including but not limited to right of entries, slope and drainage easements, and temporary construction easements, as required to allow repair of failing creek bank. H. Financial Impact: There will be no impact to the General Fund. The project will be funded from Flood Control District's Zone 3B. The total cost of repairs cannot be fully determined at this time, but staff is developing estimates to complete expeditious stabilization of the slide. Staff will seek to recover costs from the Federal Emergency Management Agency (FEMA). M. Reasons for Recommendations and Background: A section of the east bank of San Ramon Creek within the Flood Control District's right of way has begun to fail. The bank failure is downstream from the La Gonda Way bridge crossing in the Town of Danville. The slide was first noticed after the January storms of this past year. The banks have continued to move during this past winter. The failure plain has extended beyond the top of the creek bank, and is threatening adjoining private property. In order to stabilize this slide, geotechnical investigations must be performed (immediately). This analysis will better define the problem and assist our Engineers in developing a solution. If we were to follow our standard design and construction contract advertisement and approval process, the repair could not be made prior to the rainy season. This repair must occur during this summer. If the work was delayed to 1998, the failure would encroach onto the adjacent property and could jeopardize existing structures. Pursuant to provisions of Sections 22035 and 22050 of the Public Contract Code, when the appropriate findings of an emergency are made by the Board of Supervisors, the normal bidding procedures are waived and repairs can begin immediately. We are, therefore, recommending that the Board make such findings and direct the Chief Engineer to proceed with the project and enter into any necessary contracts. IV. Consequences of Negative Action: Non-concurrence of the above recommendations will significantly and adversely, delay stabilization of the area.
