Previous Board/Board Committee Actions:
On August 16, 2016, the Board of Supervisors adopted a resolution declaring an emergency due to damage to a County owned facility located at 737 S State St. Ukiah.
Summary of Request:
On August 13, 2016, the Mendocino County Executive Office and the Health and Human Services Agency were notified of a water leak in the County owned Social Services facility at 737 S. State St. A faulty pipe cap on a waterline that was being remodeled cracked and flooded around 9000 sq. ft. of the facility. County staff has been working with contractors to perform remediation work, relocate staff, schedule hazardous materials testing and actively plan for the complete restoration of the facility.
Currently all contents have been removed from the affected area of the facility, carpets and partial wall coverings have been removed and all wet areas have been thoroughly dried. Risk Management staff met with the insurance contract consultant at the site on Wednesday, August 24, 2016 for an initial walkthrough to create a scope of work for restoration construction. Construction work is anticipated to begin as soon as September 6, 2016.
Due to extensive damage and threat to health and safety, the Board of Supervisors declared an emergency pursuant to MCC Sec. 2.32.040 and Public Contract Code Section 22050. The Executive Office/Risk Management Division and the Health and Human Services Agency is recommending that the Board reaffirm the local emergency based on the information provided pursuant to PCC 22050.
Due to the anticipated attendance of only three supervisors at the special meeting, staff requested County Counsel verify the necessary voting threshold. County Counsel has determined that with only three members able to attend this meeting, it will require 4/5ths of the members present (which in this case would be a unanimous vote of the three).
Alternative Action/Motion:
Do not declare a state of emergency.
