He stated he has been in contact with our financial consultant, KNN Public Finance and was told they have never seen anything like this and that there is no market for pension obligation bonds at this time; he advised that it is not the County’s best interest to move forward at this time. He spoke of other options and informed the Board of what was involved in getting to this point financially. He has been in contact with CSAC who has a pool of other counties that are in their validation process, if it makes financial sense to Mariposa County we can at that time join the pool. No Board action is necessary at this time. He recommended that in the next fiscal year we look into joining the Fresh Step Program with CALPERS.

Dave Solomon stated the Board did not pay attention to their County Administrative Officer and should be more diligent and pay more into PERS. Supervisor Bibby asked about the $2 million allocated for this purpose. Rick Benson advised that the $2 million is still set aside. He also advised that accounting procedures will include a calculation in the near future for health benefits for retirees, the Board will then be faced with another challenge. If we take the $2 million and pay our unfunded liability we will not be able to go to the Federal Government. He recommended we keep the $2 million for consideration of Other Post Employee Benefits (OPEB) liability. Discussion was held regarding beginning with Fresh Start and that PERS will probably want to start July 1st. Rick Benson advised that we will pay a higher percentage rate to PERS and that we could pay it or accrue more interest. Further discussion was held regarding the budget. Rick Benson advised that he isn’t sure that we have to stay with PERS but because of the size of our county, we are not big enough to do this on our own. He is not aware of any other small county going outside of PERS.

Putting the mid-year budget together is a big job and many other counties have as many as six staff members working on the budget and he wants to recognize Mary Hodson for her efforts and hard work of performing this task single handedly. The budget is on schedule but there are some issues that need to be brought to the Board’s attention, including sales tax revenues going down. Discussion was held relative to SB 90 funds and how these have worked with the State in the past, now the State has changed its process and this leaves a $70,000 deficit until the following year.

Supervisor Bibby cautioned the departments to stay within their budget expressing concern relative to the remaining balance. Chair Turpin asked about the marijuana revenue. Brian Muller responded that the cap from the Forest Service is $20,000 and we far exceed this amount during the summer. Discussion was held relative to new personnel in the Forest Service to assist with the marijuana eradication and the over time cost to the Sheriff. Supervisor Aborn requested Bob Brown, the District Attorney address the issue of the requested increase of funds. Bob Brown expressed concerns regarding losing staff recently and the increased case load. Discussion was held regarding funds that Bob Brown could contribute in salary savings to help cover the expense of the requested positions of Deputy District Attorney I/II and Legal Secretary I/II for the remainder of this fiscal year at a cost to the County of $20,000. Next fiscal year Bob Brown will request the Board to commit to $150,000 for these two positions. Further discussion was held regarding the positions relative to funding availability in the final budget and grants with worse case scenario of a 10% cut on victim witness grants. Discussion was held with Supervisor Bibby and Rick Benson relative to the reclassifications that will be on the Board agenda in approximately 2 weeks, in which Rick Benson anticipates recommending with minimal salary increase.

Input from the public was made by the following: Paul Chapman suggested closing the airport. Witt Hawkins spoke in favor of the District Attorney and expressed concern relative to criminals being put on the street or not charging them and matters getting worse.

Brian Muller stated the Sheriff’s Department has been down five positions and they are almost filled at this time, he supports Bob Brown’s request as he has dealt with similar issues being understaffed. ---PAGE BREAK--- - 7 - 3-11-08 M)Aborn, (S)Bibby, Res. 08-92 was adopted as amended with adding the District Attorney’s request of a full time Deputy District Attorney and a Legal Secretary and decreasing general contingency by $20,000.
