R1: City Council members who vote on issues which might create a strong public concern that a conflict of interest exists, should consider recusing from that vote in order to maintain public confidence and trust in the City Council.
F2: The Biggs City Council currently has a total of four members out of the authorized five members, due to a vacancy which occurred on July 7th of 2007. The Grand Jury finds the lack of action to fill the vacancy disturbing.

F1: in the Grand Jury's opinion, one concern remains - evidence, stored as biological materials in the building's huge freezers, is at risk of being compromised should the freezers fail.
Recomendaciones relacionadas (1)
R1: An automatic alarm system should be installed and activated to report, perhaps at Central Control, a failure of the large freezers in the Evidence Building. This is especially important during the summer months, and would allow duty personnel to respond in a timely manner to system failures in order to preserve biological materials stored there.
F2: The women's section in the "old jail" still does not meet the definition of an adequate humane environment even though staff has done everything reasonable to make it so. The solution lies in acquiring funds for a 25% match to a portion of the 4.1 billion dollars being made available in Assembly Bill 900 for the construction of new local jail space. BUTTE COUNTY JAIL The staffing level of Central Control has been a concern as far back as the 1998 –

R2: While the increase in the Jail Impact Fees approved by the Butte County BOS on July 10, 2007, is a major step forward, the Grand Jury wishes to take this opportunity to recommend that the incorporated towns and cities contribute to this shared, local need by collecting their own impact fees. These additional fees, collected within the incorporated areas, should insure prompt success in achieving AB900 funding to help alleviate the substandard conditions for women inmates in our county. At the least video monitoring and phone answering responsibilities should be
F3: 1999 Grand Jury Report which read "The inmate monitoring station is understaffed. One officer should not be expected to adequately observe the activities of the many inmates." In response a request was made in that year's budget presentation to the BOS. The Grand Jury observed one officer still assigned to observe 2 large monitors containing a total of 25 (16 + 9) smaller screens. Added to this was the responsibility for answering a nearby phone where, according to jail staff, about 85% of the incoming calls to the facility are received. The length, readability, and complexity of the Jail Information Handbook provide

F4: significant difficulties in comprehension, and therefore usability, by many inmates. Grievances are sometimes denied because "You have failed to comply with Section II, Procedure 04 (located on ) of the Jail Information Handbook, in that you have not referenced what constitutional right, state or federal law, Board of Corrections - Title 15 section number, or Departmental policy or rule that has been violated. No further action will be taken on this grievance as you have exhausted your administrative remedy."
Recomendaciones relacionadas (1)
R4: "constitutional right, state or federal law, Board of Corrections - Title 15 section number, or Department policy or rule", assistance should be provided by an intermediary because of the general inability for many inmates to comprehend such a vast array of legal material. Legal Services of Northern California or the Community Legal Information Center at CSU, Chico, for example, might be queried as to availability for such intervention services. Denying grievances on the aforementioned basis raises questions of unfairness. Additionally, the Jail Information Handbook is capable of being simplified and shortened to avoid this perception by ensuring an adequate comprehension level and increased usability in the hands of most inmates. County resources available for accomplishing such a task might be found among the Butte County Office of Education or the District Attorney's office. A Spanish version, as is the current practice, should continue to be made available. The Butte County Sheriff, or designee, should consider how a comprehensive
F5: Deaths in custody might better be prevented if a comprehensive and enforceable policy were in place that required reporting to the Jail Commander when self-threats occur during, for example, preliminary and other judicial hearings while in custody, interrogations/questioning by law enforcement and related agencies prior to as well as during custody, and interviews/consultations by attorneys such as public defenders that also take place during custody. Such a policy might be modeled after the Child Abuse and Neglect Reporting Law first passed in 1963 by the California Attorney General's Office. Originally only physicians were included in this law but later a very comprehensive list of mandated reporters emerged as well as serious penalties for failures to report.

R5: policy of notification to jail personnel, when self-threats are made by detainees outside of the jail facility or environment, might effectively be implemented and enforced to help preserve and enhance the excellent safety record of the BCSO Corrections Division.

R1: BCCS should encourage service providers to include non-English speaking families in their program plans.
F2: Despite the efforts made for effective communication in BCCS, there is some sense of disconnect between NCCS and SCCS. Communication and consistency are hindered by program division and geographic distance. Notifications of court policy changes have sometimes not been communicated to NCCS in a timely manner.

F8: Social Workers spend over two thirds of their time in data entry and report work using the statewide Children's Welfare Service database (CWS). The amount of mandated information has increased dramatically in the last five years. This has made it difficult for Social Workers to keep up with their caseloads.

R8: DESS and BCCS should explore ways to reduce the time demands placed on Social Workers from CWS data entry requirements and facilitate understanding of its process.
F9: Due to the lack of authorized funds for overtime pay unless it is an emergency, some employees are reportedly working overtime without pay in order to meet deadlines.

However, the use of medical marijuana by parents conflicts with the Children's Services policy of a drug-free environment for children. There is abuse of "medical marijuana" prescriptions and it is often found to be one of many drugs in use. There is not a consistent policy in place to respond to this difficult dilemma.

R1: MONTGOMERY STREET AND WASHINGTON AVENUE ROUNDABOUT PROJECT – staff report. The Council considered a resolution to accept the findings of a completed feasibility study for a roundabout to be constructed at the intersection of Montgomery Street and Washington Avenue, and authorize the Department of Public Works to proceed with the development of plans and specifications for construction of the project. (Continued from the January 17, 2006 and January 26, 2006 City Council Meeting) (Eric Teitelman, Director of Community Development and Public Works) Eric Teitelman, Director of Community Development and Public Works, gave a PowerPoint presentation on the proposed Montgomery Street and Washington Avenue roundabout and on the overall success and safety statistics of roundabouts all over the United States. Council Member Simpson expressed concerns regarding access to the Nature Center because it hadn't been included in the initial design concept. Council Member Simpson also stated that, in his opinion, pedestrian safety was still an issue that had not been properly addressed. Council Member Prouty asked if this proposed roundabout was going to be build to CalTrans standards. City Consultant, Scott Ritchie, from Roundabouts & Traffic Engineering, explained that the roundabout to be built at Montgomery Street and Washington Avenue was not a CalTrans intersection but the specifications for its construction would be equal to CalTrans standards. Council Member Jernigan asked if the total cost of constructing this roundabout was known. Oroville City Council ç Eric Teitelman, Director of Community Development and Public Works, stated that the total cost would not be known until after the engineering and actual design were completed. Al Steeple, 4050 Oro Bangor Hwy, stated that on Paige Street in San Francisco, roundabouts had been installed a four intersections and removed two months later due to pedestrian fatalities. Gerardo Cueves, 2319 Via Canela, stated that he felt that the roundabout will not alleviate traffic congestion at this intersection. John Anderson, a member of the audience, stated that he felt the feasibility study should have been done on traffic congestion on Washington Avenue. Clay Castleberry, 13 Moonrich Court, stated that he was in favor of the roundabout. Mr. Castleberry stated that he felt this was an opportunity for the Oroville City Council to do something good for the City of Oroville by improving one of the gateways to the downtown area. After discussion, a motion was made by Council Member Sharkey, seconded by Council Member Corkin, to: Adopt Resolution No. 6627 - A RESOLUTION OF THE OROVILLE CITY COUNCIL ACCEPTING THE FINDINGS OF A FEASIBILITY STUDY FOR THE MONTGOMERY STREET AND WASHINGTON AVENUE ROUNDABOUT PROJECT AND AUTHORIZING THE DEPARTMENT OF PUBLIC WORKS TO PROCEED WITH DEVELOPMENT OF PLANS AND SPECIFICATIONS FOR THE PROJECT.

F1: The DGS is in the process of re-organization. Goals have been set to consolidate space for staff, equipment, and functions into one location. There are indications that they will soon be moving to a building adjacent to the county campus. This should improve efficiency and effectiveness.
Recomendaciones relacionadas (1)
R1: The Butte County Board of Supervisors and the Chief Administration Officer should continue to support the consolidation of staff into one location.
F2: The Director has shown vision and the ability to lead a department in a difficult transition process. He has established methods for input from the internal staff, as well as other departments, and ways to evaluate the effect of the re-organization. His objective is to remain flexible in order to respond to changing circumstances or to adapt to unanticipated needs.
F3: The management style of the Director is reflected down the line in the positive attitudes and morale of all job classifications of staff interviewed.
F4: The CDBG has provided money to improve the VMH by 2009 to meet the ADA requirements.
F5: The staff responsible for the VMH has remarkably improved the relationship and of the Veteran's Committees in each community. enthusiasm
F6: The VSO is providing assistance to veterans in an office that would greatly benefit from renovation to improve wheelchair access and to create privacy for interviews. FAR Form, No, 08- 046 has been prepared for consideration during the budget process.
Recomendaciones relacionadas (1)
R2: We encourage the Director, Chief Administration Officer, and the Board of Supervisors to consider as a priority the Facilities Alteration Request (No, 08-046) from the Veterans Service Office so the office can provide better wheelchair access and privacy for veteran interviews.
F7: The present Veteran Service Representatives do not currently have the level of accreditation needed to directly access the VA's data base and various veteran agencies. Existing methods are time intensive which reduce the efficiency of service to veterans.
Recomendaciones relacionadas (1)
R3: The Director should insure that the issue of the Veteran Service Office's long term staffing, training, and accreditation status be evaluated and resolved.
F8: When a Veteran Service Representative position was left vacant in 2003, it reduced the office coverage that allowed staff to attend the required out of office accreditation courses. In addition, the time needed to complete the required training and passing of examinations is long. For example, just one of the required sessions is for one week once a year in July, and other processes take up to six months. .If there were loss of staff at the present level, it could further jeopardize the future efficiency of providing services.

R3: The Director should insure that the issue of the Veteran Service Office's long term staffing, training, and accreditation status be evaluated and resolved.

F1: The Grand Jury found the method used to convey rules and policy information to wards inadequate. This info is critical to a successful detention experience in Juvenile Hall. A properly prepared rights and policies manual for individual distribution should be considered. This manual would pertain only to the wards and could be written at a grade level more comprehensible to them. The Grievance Procedure should be included in such a manual rather than posted or offered elsewhere.
Recomendaciones relacionadas (1)
R1: A thoughtfully organized manual providing useful, pertinent as well as mandated information at a readable level should be constructed and used, in lieu of the current method of posting, to ensure that all wards have access to critical information during their detention. A Spanish edition should also be written at a proper comprehension level.
F2: The Grand Jury finds great potential in the development of transitioning programs such as the Boys and Girls Clubs' project at Juvenile Hall.

F1: The Grand Jury was satisfied that the internal investigation of the excessive force complaints by the PPD was thorough and complete.
Recomendaciones relacionadas (1)
R1: The PPD should continue to seek DUI grant funding for video and audio recorders from State Office of Traffic Safety. Additional funding for recording equipment should be sought through the budget process from the Town of Paradise.
F2: Regarding the incident of the fatal shooting of a woman in the Paradise Cemetery, a PPD officer asked the woman several times to put down the weapon, but she lifted the pistol and pointed it directly at the officer. The Grand Jury met with the Butte County District Attorney and discussed his investigation into this shooting. He told the Grand Jury that the officer had no choice but to shoot the woman, after she pointed a loaded weapon at him. He ruled the shooting justified.
Recomendaciones relacionadas (1)
R2: The PPD should continue the police-recruiting program, which sponsors cadets enrolled in the police academy.
F3: The new video and audio recorders now in use by the PPD will not only help in convictions but may reduce future complaints. These are very expensive to install and it does not pay to install them in older police cars, which may be retired soon.
F4: The Grand Jury was impressed with the leadership of the PPD. Outside of the image problem created by these excessive force complaints; the department's biggest problem appears to be lack of manpower.

F2: All pesticide technicians at Butte County's three MADs are licensed, certified applicators. In addition to their initial qualifications, they are required by the state to acquire an additional forty hours of continuing education every two years. Classroom training at annual conferences or district meetings, as well as self-directed educational videos, satisfies this requirement.

R2: BCMVCD should expand their use of the internet for educating the public. We recommend a website with links under "Local Resources" at the Butte County website, modeled after that of the Butte County Air Quality Management District. It should include information about but not limited to: Fogging schedules • News releases • Special assessment fees and policies · Information about pesticides used · Balancing health risks of mosquito caused illnesses versus control methods
F3: During the course of the Grand Jury investigation, employee-management relation issues and employee morale came to our attention. We intentionally chose not to describe these issues specifically. We decided, without prejudice, that these issues were best resolved in other forums available. These forums include, but are not limited to, those outlined in the BCMVCD District Policy Manual, those negotiated by the Labor Union representing some employees, the District Trustees and ultimately, the City Councils and County Board of Supervisors that appoint them. The mosquito abatement districts serving Butte County residents use pesticides in very low volumes that are also considered safe, as permitted by law, for controlling the mosquito population and for preventing diseases transmitted from mosquitoes. West Nile Virus and other mosquito borne diseases present a far greater danger to the public than the pesticide control methods used.

R3: The Grand Jury encourages BCMVCD management to take affirmative steps to improve employee-management relations for the sake of improved efficiency that comes with employee morale. We do not believe the Grand Jury can be an effective mediator of such issues.
F5: There are local landowners who, by the nature of their land use, cause extraordinary quantities of mosquitoes to breed, resulting in a public nuisance and a potential health hazard. These typically have large areas with standing water such as wildlife refuges, rice growers, and duck clubs. BCMVCD has a policy to bill these landowners the cost of the pesticides used to control the mosquito populations on their property. During the 2007 calendar year, at least 32 land tracts were billed between $200.00 and $48,000.00 each, a total of approximately $200,000.00. Owners that fail to pay these costs voluntarily are subject to formal abatement proceedings in accordance with the Health and Safety Code. These costs are dependent on several factors, as required to bring the mosquito population under control, as defined by the policy. Some landowners are concerned that they are being singled out or unfairly charged so we are including this policy, a sample invoice, and a recent material cost sheet (Appendix B). All three districts are represented and are actively involved in the West Nile Virus Task Force.

Free mosquito fish are available for the public at each of the district offices. Additional information about mosquito borne diseases can be obtained at Butte County Department of Public Health. The county's MADs do not have their own website but the following websites have information about West Nile Virus: http://www.buttecounty.net/publichealth/cder/wnv.html • http://www.westnile.ca.gov/ •
