RECOMMENDATION(S):

ADOPT California Tradewinds GHAD Resolution No. 2017/01 adopting the GHAD budget for 2017/2018 fiscal year and updating GHAD Manager payment limit under Consulting Services Agreement, as recommended by the GHAD Attorney and General Manager; ADOPT California Tradewinds GHAD Resolution No. 2017/02 increasing the GHAD budget through the 2016/2017 fiscal year to $14,800; and RECEIVE the GHAD Statement of Investment Policy prepared by the GHAD Treasurer.

FISCAL IMPACT:

The GHAD is funded 100% through assessments levied on properties within the GHAD. The increase in the 201612017 fiscal year will result in an increase in the 201612017 budget from $6,000 to $8,800. However, there are sufficient funds in the budget to accommodate such requested increase since the GHAD has collected monies to fund the transfer of maintenance responsibilities from the developer.

BACKGROUND:

On May 19, 2009, the Contra Costa County Board of Supervisors adopted Resolution No. 2009/02 approving the formation of the California Tradewinds Geologic Hazard Abatement District (GHAD) and appointed itself to serve as the GHAD Board of Directors. The GHAD Board is requested to adopt budgets for the GHAD operations each fiscal year. The GHAD Board is being requested to adopt the fiscal year budget for 2017/2018 as prepared by the GHAD General Manager, Sands Construction Co. which is attached to Resolution No. 20l7/0l.

In addition, the GHAD Board is being requested to update the GHAD General Manager payment limits under the existing Consulting Services Agreement as required by that Agreement. The budget attached to Resolution No. 2017/0l as Exhibit A identifies that limit at $6,000.

The GHAD Board is also being requested to increase the amount of budgeted funds in the 2016/2017 fiscal year from $6,000 by $8,800 which reflects a total amended 2016/2017 budget through June 30, 2017, The reason for this increased budget is the California Tradewinds GHAD is in the process of accepting a transfer of maintenance responsibilities from the developer DeNova Homes. The GHAD has collected $8,800.00 from DeNova Homes to fund the transfer of maintenance responsibility process. To date, the GHAD Manager has accrued, but not yet billed, these costs against the GHAD Manager's Consulting Services Agreement since this transfer was not contemplated in the 2016/2017 budget submitted to the Board in June of 2016.

CONSEQUENCE OF NEGATIVE ACTION:

The GHAD will not be able to continue transfer of maintenance responsibilities if the 2016/2017 amended budget is not approved. Further, the GHAD will not be able to continue operation starting July 1, 2017 if the 2017/2018 budget is not adopted.
