The total 2009 OPSG award for 13 states and Puerto Rico was $60 million, in which California was awarded more than $11.9 million. The objective of the OPSG grant program is to increase coordination and enhance local law enforcement presence along the border. On January 6, 2009 (3), your Board approved the submission of the 2009 OPSG grant application. The OPSG grant program is intended to enhance law enforcement preparedness and operational readiness along the land borders of the United States.

The CSA made funding available to Probation Departments to contract for services with approved providers of anger management and violence prevention training programs who were selected by CSA through a separate application process.

It is anticipated this project will have a two-year timeline; however funding will be allocated year to year. The initial grant period will cover July 1, 2009 through June 30, 2010. The second year will be available as long as Congress appropriates the funds. If funds are appropriated CSA will assist the participating Probation Departments with the reapplication process in the Spring of 2010.

On August 18, 2008, CSA notified the Probation Department that the application was approved. Additionally, CSA notified the Probation Department that an error was made in the amount of funds available to the department and the actual award would be $43,470, not $42,470 as stated in the August 4, 2009 (5) Board letter. This is a request to accept and appropriate $43,740 for the period July 1, 2009 through June 30, 2010. FISCAL IMPACT:

9/22/09 8 Funds for this request are not included in the Fiscal Year 2009-11 Probation Department Operational Plan. If approved, this request will result in costs and revenue of $43,740 for the period July 1, 2009 through June 30, 2010. The funding source is the Corrections Standards Authority. This grant requires a match of 10% of the requested funds in the amount of $4,374, which will be met through the application of the Probation Department approved indirect cost rate, which is a permissible method of addressing the match requirement. There will be no change in net General Fund cost and no additional staff years. BUSINESS IMPACT STATEMENT: N/A RECOMMENDATION: CHIEF ADMINISTRATIVE OFFICER 1.

ACTION: ON MOTION of Supervisor Slater-Price, seconded by Supervisor Horn, the Board took action as recommended, on Consent.

AYES: Cox, Jacob, Slater-Price, Roberts, Horn SUBJECT:7. MEDICAL EXAMINER’S SOLE SOURCE PROCUREMENT OF TOXICOLOGY LABORATORY AND DIGITAL X-RAY EQUIPMENT (DISTRICTS: ALL) OVERVIEW: On March 1, 2005 (13) and in a series of subsequent actions, your Board authorized the design and construction of a new Medical Examiner and Forensic Center on the site of Building 11 at the County Operations Center. The construction of the building is set to be complete in December 2009. The project is funded through Capital Project 1006566 and contains funds earmarked for laboratory equipment. The new laboratory equipment will replace, or augment, existing laboratory equipment at the Medical Examiner’s current facility.

9/22/09 9 Digital X-Ray Equipment The Medical Examiner’s Office examines all unexpected and suspicious deaths in the county. As part of the examination process, a digital X-ray system will greatly enhance the diagnostic capability of the Medical Examiner’s Office by providing 3D images of decedents. This functionality will prove beneficial in the forensic investigation by identifying or characterizing injuries, identifying certain disease states, or locating foreign objects prior to autopsy. High quality digital images provide more detail then the older X-ray film method, and allows for those images to be archived within a computerized medical record and be readily available for review or court presentation. The Medical Examiner’s Office currently uses a conventional X-ray system that is cumbersome and time consuming. This is a request to authorize the Director, Purchasing and Contracting to procure digital X-ray equipment items from Philips Medical Systems N.A.

Toxicology Laboratory Equipment Additionally, as an integral component and compliment to the physical body examination, routine toxicology screenings are conducted. These screenings test for drugs of abuse and an innumerable number of therapeutic agents. Identifying trends in drugs of abuse or newer and more potent drugs necessitates that the Medical Examiner’s Office stay abreast of new drug screening methods and utilize new instrumentation to conduct the tests. Many testing methods have been developed and refined over the last several years, and cannot be replaced with similar toxicology equipment without extensive trials, method redevelopment, downtime and expense. This request will augment the current equipment in the forensic toxicology laboratory, provide new and enhanced toxicology instruments and allow the forensic toxicology laboratory to continue with its routine work. The equipment included in this request will play a vital role in toxicology screenings. This is a request to authorize the Director of Purchasing and Contracting to procure the following laboratory equipment items from Agilent Technologies, Applied Biosystems and Immunalysis Corporation. FISCAL IMPACT: Funds for this request are included in the CAO’s Fiscal Year 2009-11 Adopted Operational Plan in the Capital Program. The funding source is Capital Project 1006566 Medical Examiner and Forensic Center. If approved, this request will result in estimated current year costs of $2,253,000 ($980,000 for X-ray equipment and $1,273,000 for toxicology equipment) and will require the addition of no staff years. BUSINESS IMPACT STATEMENT: N/A RECOMMENDATION: CHIEF ADMINISTRATIVE OFFICER 1. In accordance with Board Policy A-87, Competitive Procurement, approve and authorize the Director, Department of Purchasing and Contracting to enter into negotiations with Agilent Technologies, and subject to successful negotiations and a determination of a fair and reasonable price, award a

9/22/09 10 contract for the procurement of laboratory equipment, including extended warranty, accessories and maintenance. Waive the advertising and competitive procurement requirements of Board Policy A-87.

NOTICED PUBLIC HEARING: PROPOSED SUBSTANTIAL AMENDMENT TO THE FISCAL YEAR 2009-10 ANNUAL FUNDING PLAN FOR CDBG, HOME, ESG, AND HOPWA AND REALLOCATION OF CDBG, HOME, AND HOPWA FUNDS (DISTRICTS: ALL) OVERVIEW: The County of San Diego Consortium Consolidated Annual Funding Plan describes the projects and programs to be funded with the County’s annual allocation of Community Development Block Grant, HOME Investment Partnerships, Emergency Shelter Grant, and Housing Opportunities for Persons with AIDS entitlement funds disbursed by the U.S. Department of Housing and Urban Development. On May 5, 2009 (9), the Board of Supervisors approved the Fiscal Year 2009-10 Consortium Consolidated Annual Funding Plan.

9/22/09 11 As a result of a decline in revenue due to fewer fuel sales associated with the recent economic downtown and recent actions by the State of California legislature to defer payment of a substantial portion of Highway Users Tax Account and Proposition 42 funds to the County Road Fund, a number of Fiscal Year 2009-10 Community Development Block Grant construction projects cannot move forward in a timely fashion and must be cancelled due to the loss of matching funds. Therefore, it is recommended that up to $1,650,067 in Community Development Block Grant funds be reallocated to fully fund three priority sidewalk construction projects that have previously received Community Development Block Grant funding to ensure that those projects are completed within a reasonable period of time as required by the Community Development Block Grant Program.

The City of Imperial Beach has requested that a facilities improvement project not previously identified be funded. It is recommended that this project be funded with a portion of the City of Imperial Beach’s Fiscal Year 2009-10 Community Block Grant allocation. Current funding for its approved crosswalk project will be decreased.

It is also recommended that up to $1,467,978 in Fiscal Year 2009-10 and prior year HOME Investment Partnerships Program funds be reallocated to two HOME Consortium cities projects, two tenant-based rental assistance programs, a rehabilitation loan for the Pine View Apartments affordable rental housing project if approved by the U.S. Department of Housing and Urban Development, Notices of Funding Availability for qualified Community Housing Development Organizations to carry out eligible HOME Program activities; and, that up to $790,000 in Housing Opportunities for Persons with AIDS funds be reallocated to eligible program activities to be determined through a competitive selection process. FISCAL IMPACT: If approved, this request will result in the reallocation of up to $936,567 in Fiscal Year 2009-10 Community Development Block Grant funds and up to $713,500 in prior year Community Development Block Grant funds for sidewalk construction projects. These funds will be reallocated from current year cancelled Community Development Block Grant projects and the Community Development Block Grant Housing Development Fund, which is a reserve account comprised of funds from cancelled and completed Community Development Block Grant projects and a portion of current and prior year Community Development Block Grant allocations set aside to develop affordable housing or fund eligible projects not yet identified. In addition, if approved, this request will result in the reallocation of up to $660,000 in Fiscal Year 2009-10 HOME Investment Partnerships Program funds for tenant-based rental assistance programs; the allocation of up to $214,276 in Fiscal Year 2009-10 HOME Housing Development funds, subject to U.S. Department of Housing and Urban Development approval, for an affordable housing rehabilitation loan or for eligible HOME activities carried out by Community Housing Development

AYES: Cox, Jacob, Slater-Price, Roberts, Horn SUBJECT:9. ACCEPTANCE OF DONATIONS FOR THE RAMONA BRANCH LIBRARY AND AUTHORITY TO APPROVE CONTRACT CHANGE ORDERS FOR RAMONA AND FALLBROOK BRANCH LIBRARY CONSTRUCTION (DISTRICTS: 2 & 5) OVERVIEW: County of San Diego Administrative Code, Section 66, permits the acceptance of gifts by the administrative head of each department of the County, subject to ratification by the Board of Supervisors. The County Library is poised to receive cash donations by the Friends of the Ramona Library in support of the new Ramona Branch Library. The Friends of the Ramona Library will donate up to $1,750,000 for the library project. This action will ratify and accept the Friends of the Ramona Library donation.

As a condition for acceptance of this donation, the Friends of the Ramona Library stipulates the funds be used to procure furnishings, fixtures, equipment, and enhancements for the new library. Enhancements may include construction to structurally support installation of furnishings, fixtures, and equipment. This action will ratify and authorize the appropriation of donations to the County Library to be used for procuring furnishings, fixtures, and equipment for the new Ramona Branch Library.

The Board previously approved the Library accepting donations from the Friends of the Fallbrook Library (May 5, 2009, #13). If approved, this action will also allow the Director, Purchasing and Contracting to approve contract change orders up to the full available donation amounts to enhance the Ramona and Fallbrook Branch Library construction projects.

9/22/09 15 FISCAL IMPACT: Funds for this request are not budgeted and are not included in the Library Fund. If approved, these recommendations will result in expenditures for furnishings, fixtures, equipment, and library enhancements for the Ramona Branch Library in an amount up to $1,750,000, depending on actual donations received. No change is anticipated for the Fallbrook Branch Library construction project. No additional staff years are required. BUSINESS IMPACT STATEMENT: N/A RECOMMENDATION: CHIEF ADMINISTRATIVE OFFICER 1.

ACTION: ON MOTION of Supervisor Slater-Price, seconded by Supervisor Horn, the Board took action as recommended, on Consent.

AYES: Cox, Jacob, Slater-Price, Roberts, Horn SUBJECT:10. APPROVE STRATEGIC ENERGY PLAN 2009–2012; AMEND BOARD POLICY G-15; DELETE BOARD POLICY F-50; AUTHORIZE EXTENSION OF ENERGY INITIATIVE PARTNERSHIP AGREEMENT; AUTHORIZE ENERGY SERVICES CONTRACTS; AND ESTABLISH APPROPRIATIONS CONTINGENT UPON AWARD OF THE AMERICAN RECOVERY AND REINVESTMENT ACT (ARRA) ENERGY EFFICIENCY AND CONSERVATION BLOCK GRANT (DISTRICTS: ALL) OVERVIEW: On July 10, 2001 (7), the Board of Supervisors adopted a Strategic Energy

9/22/09 16 Master Plan that established goals, standards, and programs for energy conservation at County facilities. The Plan is periodically reviewed as technology and energy markets change and funding opportunities for energy projects become available. In response to such changes, staff has updated the Plan to renew and guide the County’s commitment to sustainability, renewable energy, and regional leadership in energy use, and expanded the plan to include peak demand response and vehicle fleet goals. The Plan also incorporates planning and outreach programs by the Departments of Planning and Land Use, Environmental Health, and Parks and Recreation to County residents, contractors, and developers.

On March 3, 2009 (12), the Board of Supervisors authorized County departments to apply for and accept American Recovery and Reinvestment Act of 2009 (ARRA) grant funds. On June 23, 2009, the County submitted to the U.S. Department of Energy an application for approximately $5.1 million in ARRA energy grants. Many of the ARRA grant projects will require specific expertise in energy conservation and energy efficient technologies. In order to meet the short timeframes required under ARRA regulations, staff proposes to award an energy service contract(s) to execute ARRA, utility incentives projects, and California Energy Commission loan projects, as funds are awarded.

On April 4, 2006 (10), the Board approved the 2006-2008 County of San Diego and San Diego Gas & Electric Energy Initiative Partnership Agreement, including future agreement extensions and amendments. This Partnership has provided financial reimbursement of staff time, staff training, community outreach and consulting services to improve energy efficiency and conservation in our facilities and promote energy efficiency and conservation throughout the region. The County is currently under bridge funding for 2009, anticipating California Public Utilities Commission approval of our 2010-2012 County of San Diego and San Diego Gas & Electric Energy Initiative Partnership Agreement by the end of calendar year 2009. The new Agreement will increase three-year funding from $989,000 (2006-2008) to $2,900,000 (2010-2012). The recommended action includes authority to enter the new Agreement.

The recommended action includes authority to contract for retrocommissioning engineering/investigation services. This is a program funded by the California Public Utilities Commission and offered through San Diego Gas & Electric to insure that building systems are operating with optimal efficiencies.

In addition, the proposed action will update and consolidate Board Policy G-15, Design Standards for County Facilities, with Board Policy F-50, Voluntary Resource – Efficient Guidelines on New Construction and Building Renovation Projects. FISCAL IMPACT: Funds for this request are not included in the Fiscal Year 2009-11 Operational Plan. If approved, this request will result in additional $5,140,000 costs and

9/22/09 17 revenue in Fiscal Year 2009-10, which includes $1,960,000 in the Department of Planning and Land Use, $750,000 in the Department of Parks and Recreation, $260,000 in the Department of Environmental Health and $2,170,000 in the General Services Facilities Management Internal Services Fund. The funding source for the additional $5,140,000 is unanticipated revenue from the American Recovery and Reinvestment Act Energy Efficiency and Conservation Block Grant. Additional funding sources for the retrocommissioning and energy services contract(s) will include energy grants, utility rebate programs, and utility incentives programs, as funds are awarded, and a California Energy Commission loan approved on September 28, 2004 (4) Resolution No. 04-219. No additional staff years are required. BUSINESS IMPACT STATEMENT: Expenditures for energy-efficiency projects will create private sector jobs and economic opportunities in San Diego County. RECOMMENDATION: CHIEF ADMINISTRATIVE OFFICER 1. Find that updating the San Diego County Strategic Energy Plan 2009–2012 is categorically exempt from the California Environmental Quality Act (CEQA) under Article 18, Section 15262 of the State CEQA Guidelines because it is a project involving only planning studies for possible future actions which the Board has not approved, adopted, or funded.

2. Find in accordance with Section 15301 of the CEQA Guidelines that the award of a contract for retrocommissioning services is categorically exempt from CEQA because it involves the operation, repair, maintenance and minor alteration of existing structures, facilities or mechanical equipment and negligible or no expansion of use of existing facilities.

3. Find in accordance with Sections 15301, 15308, and 15322 of the CEQA Guidelines that the award of an energy services contract and the extension of the County of San Diego and San Diego Gas & Electric Energy Initiative Partnership Agreement for the 2010-2012 program cycle are categorically exempt from CEQA because they include projects that involve the operation, repair, maintenance and minor alteration of existing structures, facilities or mechanical equipment with negligible or no expansion of use; regulatory programs to assure the maintenance, restoration, enhancement or protection of the environment; or education or training programs involving no physical alteration in the area affected.

FISCAL YEAR 2009-10 APPROPRIATION LIMIT FOR THE COUNTY FAMILY OF FUNDS (DISTRICTS: ALL) OVERVIEW: The Board of Supervisors annually adopts the Appropriation Limit for the County of San Diego Family of Funds, pursuant to Article XIII B of the California Constitution. This action requests approval of the County’s Appropriation Limit for Fiscal Year 2009-10, calculated to be approximately $3.9 billion. Only revenues from Proceeds of Taxes (essentially property tax and other in-lieu taxes) are subject to this limit.

AYES: Cox, Jacob, Slater-Price, Roberts, Horn SUBJECT:13. 2009 JUSTICE FACILITY REFUNDING CERTIFICATES OF PARTICIPATION DOCUMENTS (DISTRICTS: ALL) OVERVIEW: On June 16, 2009 (18) the Board referred the approval of the refunding of the 1997 Central Jail Certificates of Participation (COPs) and 1998 Downtown Courthouse COPs (the “2009 Justice Facilities Refunding”) to the San Diego Capital Asset Leasing Corporation (“SANCAL”) Board for approval, and directed the Chief Financial Officer to proceed with the 2009 Justice Facilities Refunding upon approval by the SANCAL Board. On June 16, 2009, the SANCAL Board voted to move forward with the 2009 Justice Facilities Refunding. Today’s recommendation approves the documents related to the 2009 Justice Facility Refunding and the related execution and delivery of the 2009 Justice Facilities Refunding COPs so long as market conditions continue to result in: 1) a minimum present value savings target of 3% of the outstanding principal to be refunded; 2) a minimum of $1 million of net present value savings; and 3) annual

9/22/09 21 cash flow savings of $100,000. Pending the approval of today’s recommendation, the SANCAL Board will be reviewing and considering the 2009 Justice Facilities Refunding. FISCAL IMPACT: 1997 Central Jail (Inmate Reception Center) If approved, this current refunding will result in budgetary savings to benefit the General Fund. Based on current market conditions, it is anticipated that over the life of the refunding, approximately $4.3 million of net present value savings will be generated, which is 7.8% of the outstanding principal to be refunded. Net debt service annual cash flow savings would range from $380,000 to $450,000. The final maturity would remain October 1, 2025.

1998 Downtown Courthouse (Hall of Justice) If approved, this current refunding will result in budgetary savings to benefit the General Fund. Based on current market conditions, it is anticipated that over the life of the refunding, approximately $2.1 million of net present value savings will be generated, which is 5.0% of the outstanding principal to be refunded. Net debt service annual cash flow savings would range from $440,000 to $525,000. The final maturity would be shortened by seven months to October 1, 2022. Actual savings for both refundings will be based on rates at the time of the sale of the 2009 Justice Facilities Refunding COPs. The maximum par of the 2009 Justice Facilities Refunding COPs will be $100 million, but is currently estimated to be $82.5 million, which includes the costs of delivering the refunding COPs. Total costs of delivery are estimated to be $932,000 and include underwriter’s discount, special counsel, financial advisory services, as well as other costs associated with the financing. If approved, the County will only complete the transaction if it meets the requirements of the County’s Refunding Policy at the time of closing. BUSINESS IMPACT STATEMENT: N/A RECOMMENDATION: CHIEF ADMINISTRATIVE OFFICER Adopt a resolution entitled:

RESOLUTION OF THE BOARD OF SUPERVISORS OF THE COUNTY OF SAN DIEGO PROVIDING FOR THE EXECUTION AND DELIVERY OF A SITE LEASE (HALL OF JUSTICE), FACILITY LEASE (HALL OF JUSTICE), SITE LEASE (INMATE RECEPTION CENTER), FACILITY LEASE (INMATE RECEPTION CENTER) AND TRUST AGREEMENT AND THE EXECUTION AND DELIVERY OF COUNTY OF SAN DIEGO CERTIFICATES OF PARTICIPATION (JUSTICE FACILITIES REFUNDING) AND CERTAIN ADDITIONAL DOCUMENTS RELATING THERETO

9/22/09 22 ACTION: ON MOTION of Supervisor Roberts, seconded by Supervisor Cox, the Board took action as recommended, adopting Resolution No. 09-187, entitled: RESOLUTION OF THE BOARD OF SUPERVISORS OF THE COUNTY OF SAN DIEGO PROVIDING FOR THE EXECUTION AND DELIVERY OF A SITE LEASE (HALL OF JUSTICE), FACILITY LEASE (HALL OF JUSTICE), SITE LEASE (INMATE RECEPTION CENTER), FACILITY LEASE (INMATE RECEPTION CENTER) AND TRUST AGREEMENT AND THE EXECUTION AND DELIVERY OF COUNTY OF SAN DIEGO CERTIFICATES OF PARTICIPATION (JUSTICE FACILITIES REFUNDING) AND CERTAIN ADDITIONAL DOCUMENTS RELATING THERETO.

AYES: Cox, Jacob, Slater-Price, Roberts ABSENT: Horn SUBJECT:14. BUDGET ADJUSTMENTS PURSUANT TO STATE’S AMENDED BUDGET (DISTRICTS: ALL) OVERVIEW: On July 28, 2009, the Governor signed a series of bills that amended the State’s Fiscal Year 2009-10 Budget that was originally enacted on February 20, 2009. The amended budget addressed a $24.0 billion gap by a combination of cutting spending, borrowing property tax revenue from local governments, shifting redevelopment funds to meet the State’s Proposition 98 obligations to schools, deferring certain payments to local governments, accelerating certain revenues and reforms to various State agencies and boards. We have assessed the impact of the State’s amended budget on the County and find that it is necessary, due to lack of State revenues, to recommend that your Board make adjustments to the County’s Fiscal Year 2009-10 Adopted Budget. These reductions affect services provided by the Probation Department under the Substance Abuse Treatment and Crime Prevention Act – Proposition 36 (SACPA - Prop 36), court security services provided by the Sheriff’s Department, five program areas in the Health and Human Services Agency: Child Welfare Services, Public Health Services, Regional Operations, Alcohol and Drug Services, and Aging and Independence Services, and the Solid Waste Planning and Recycling program in the Department of Public Works. Partially mitigating the State reductions to Child Welfare Services is a recently approved grant from the First Five Commission.

These budget adjustments will result in a reduction of 83 staff years including the staff years associated with 20 of the 24 positions in the Probation Department and Alcohol and Drug Services that were subject to the workforce reduction Board action on July 21, 2009 (16). Four (4) of the 24 deleted positions are recommended to be restored to the Probation Department because a portion of the anticipated State funding reductions did not occur. The positions associated with the remaining 63 of these staff years are in the Health and Human Services Agency and will be eliminated without layoffs through attrition and freezing vacant positions. In addition, sixteen positions in the Sheriff’s Department will be frozen.

9/22/09 23 Further adjustments may be necessary as the state provides information regarding the County’s funding allocations for social services programs. In addition, upon completing the evaluation of options, staff will return to the Board with the recommended means for financing the County’s obligation to loan the State an estimated $71.0 million in property taxes under the suspension provisions of Proposition 1A (2004) - Protection of Local Government Revenues. FISCAL IMPACT: If approved, these actions will cancel budgeted appropriations and related sources of funding in the amount of $11,542,135 in the General Fund (Probation Department, $1,717,048, Sheriff’s Department, $1,538,275 and Health and Human Services Agency, $8,286,812) and will establish appropriations of $3,000,000 in the Health and Human Services Agency, resulting in a net decrease in appropriations of $8,542,135 in the General Fund. The funding source for the additional appropriations in the Health and Human Services Agency is unanticipated revenue from the First Five Commission. The net reduction in appropriations includes $4,174,902 million in salaries and benefits and reflects a reduction of 83.0 staff years (17.0 staff years in the Probation Department and 66.0 staff years in the Health and Human Services Agency) from the Adopted Operational Plan for Fiscal Year 2009-10. Sixteen positions in the Sheriff’s Department will be frozen.

In addition to the General Fund amendments, these actions will cancel budgeted appropriations in the Department of Public Work’s Solid Waste Planning and Recycling program and related funding from the Department of Conservation Competitive Multifamily Complex Recycling Program in the amount of $223,226, resulting in a net decrease in appropriations and related revenue of $8,765,361 in all the funds combined. BUSINESS IMPACT STATEMENT: N/A RECOMMENDATION: CHIEF ADMINISTRATIVE OFFICER 1. Cancel appropriations of $1,717,048 in salaries and benefits and related State revenue in the Probation Department for Substance Abuse Treatment and Crime Prevention Act – Proposition 36 (SACPA - Prop 36) due to the elimination of funds in the Fiscal Year 2009-10 State Budget.

7.

REQUEST FOR INVESTIGATION OF ALLEGATIONS OF VOTING IRREGULARITIES AND OTHER ALLEGATIONS OF MISCONDUCT BY ASSOCIATION OF COMMUNITY ORGANIZATIONS FOR REFORM NOW (ACORN) EMPLOYEES (DISTRICTS: ALL) OVERVIEW: The Association of Community Organizations for Reform Now (ACORN) is a community-based organization that advocates for low and moderate income families by working on neighborhood safety, voter registration, health care, affordable housing, and other social issues. ACORN pursues their goals through demonstration, negotiation, lobbying for legislation, and increasing voter participation. ACORN has over 400,000 members and more than 1,200 neighborhood chapters across the United States including a San Diego County Chapter based in the City of San Diego.

ACORN has been at the center of recent public controversy over allegations of voter registration fraud and other allegations of misconduct committed by workers. In response to these controversies, the Census Bureau cut ties with ACORN, which had been tapped to participate in the 2010 census. In order to maintain the integrity of San Diego County elections and to protect the public from potentially criminal conduct, an investigation of ACORN activities and practices in San Diego County is necessary. FISCAL IMPACT: To be determined. BUSINESS IMPACT STATEMENT: N/A RECOMMENDATION: SUPERVISOR HORN & VICE CHAIRWOMAN SLATER-PRICE 1. Direct the Chief Administrative Officer to conduct an audit of 2008 elections held in San Diego County to fully investigate any voter irregularities pertaining to ACORN and report back to Board of Supervisors upon completion of the audit and investigation.
