Memorandum
Date: August 25, 2020
To: The Honorable Moke Simon, Chair, Lake County Board of Supervisors
From: Carol J. Huchingson, County Administrative Officer
Subject: Consideration of Response to the 2019-20 Grand Jury Final Report
Executive Summary: (include fiscal and staffing impact narrative):
As your Board is aware, the Lake County Civil Grand Jury is an examining and investigative body that makes recommendations to improve systems, procedures, and methods of operations. A Final Report is created on an annual basis, documenting their Findings and Recommendations.
Guidelines for responses are provided in the California Penal Code, sections 933 and 933.05. Appointed Department Heads are invited to respond, whereas elected officials, including your Board, are required to respond.
In continuation of recent practice, the Grand Jury's Report noted your Board was required to respond to specifically annotated Recommendations, as opposed to all Findings and Recommendations for a selection of reports.
The attached response to the 2019-20 Grand Jury Final Report has been drafted for your consideration. It includes information provided by Elected and Appointed Department Heads, and reflects both the form requested by the Grand Jury and the requirements of the Penal Code.
Your final response must be submitted to Judge Lunas no later than Friday, September 18.
