Fiscal Impact/Change to Net County Cost:
This agreement will increase revenue for the Transportation Department's (Department) Tahoe Engineering Division Erosion Control Program. There is no Net County Cost.
Reason for Recommendation:
The subject Agreement provides for the transfer to El Dorado County of 25% of the gross income from California Tahoe Conservancy (CTC) leases to private individuals or groups on lands owned by the CTC in El Dorado County (County). Pursuant to Government Code Section 66908.3, the CTC is authorized to lease acquired lands. When such lands are within the County and are leased to private individuals or groups, the CTC must transfer twenty-five percent (25%) of the gross income of the leases to the County each year. The subject Agreement is the mechanism that accomplishes this transfer. Pursuant to the Budget Act of 2006, Chapter 47-06, the Legislature has appropriated $4,150 to the CTC for transfer to the County as private lease revenue for this fiscal year. At least fifty percent (50%) of this amount $2,075 is to be used for soil erosion control projects in the Lake Tahoe region, as defined in Section 66905.5 of the Government Code. All the funding provided by the previous Lease Revenue Agreement was used for soil erosion control projects, and the intention is to again allocate the entire $4,150 to soil erosion control projects.
The Agreement includes the requirement that the County sign the Contractor Certification regarding non-discrimination, drug-free workplace requirements, and other provisions for which certification is required when doing business with the State of California. The County's current practices are consistent with these requisites.
The term of this Agreement is retroactive from December 31, 2007 through June 30, 2008. The Department did not receive the subject Agreement from the CTC until April 28, 2008 and is now seeking the Board's approval to execute said Agreement.
Action to be taken following Board approval:
1. The Board Chairman will sign the five (5) originals of the subject Agreement and Exhibit B, Contractor Certification.
2. The Board Clerk will return all five (5) signed originals to the Department for further processing to the CTC.
3. The Board Clerk will forward a certified copy of the Minute Order to the Department.
4. Upon receiving the fully-executed Agreement from the CTC, the Department will forward an original to the Board Clerk's office and retain a copy for its files.
