None.
3. Items for Committee Recommendation to Board
a. Provide direction regarding Central San new logo design
Ms. Barnett distributed two logo options (see Options A and B
attached) based on Central San's existing logo, as directed by the
Board at the July 20, 2017 Board meeting. Option B contained a
modernized font for the District's name and nickname, a more

elegant "S" in the "CCCSD" appearing at the end of the pipe, and
fewer lines on the pipe.
Chair McGill said Option B was exactly what he had in mind when
he brought up the concept at the July 20 Board meeting.
Member Williams, who reiterated his preference for the new logo
Option A presented at the July 20 Board meeting that was not
adopted by a majority of the Board, said that of the two options
presented at this meeting, he agreed that Option B was preferable.
Ms. Barnett mentioned that there is currently about 1-1/2 years'
worth of letterhead inventory and business card stock with the
existing logo. She asked for feedback as to implementation of an
updated logo. Would the Committee prefer a "lite" rollout (using up
existing paper stock inventory, utilizing the updated logo on any
new publications, such as the Pipeline, etc., and only updating
vehicle logos as they are replaced) ? Alternatively, would the
Committee suggest a more full-fledged and costly implementation
involving all new printed materials and immediate updates to
vehicle logos, etc.?
The Committee expressed preference for the "lite" rollout, which is
the least costly approach.
COMMITTEE ACTION: Recommended (1) that both logo
options be brought to the Board for consideration, noting that
the Committee prefers Option B; and (2) a "lite" rollout.
b. Review proposed new Board Policy No. BP 033 - Public Records,
and discuss "Diligent Search" portion of related draft Administrative
Procedure No. AP 033
Mr. Alm said the draft Board policy included with the agenda packet
was very high level and that staff is in the process of drafting
detailed associated administrative procedures (AP 033) based on a
recent model developed by the League of California Cities
subsequent to the California Supreme Court ruling in City of San
Jose v. Superior Court, which held that public agency officials' or
employees' use of personal accounts or devices to communicate
about public business may now be subject to disclosure under the
California Public Records Act (PRA).
Chair McGill suggested that a more expansive description of the
types of personal accounts or devices affected by the policy be
September 21, 2017 Regular Board Meeting Agenda Packet - Page 77 of 91

Administration Committee Minutes

included in the policy language, similar to that in the "Diligent
Search" section of the draft AP 033.
Member Williams suggested that the term "writings" as used in the
draft policy be defined to clarify that they may be written or verbal
(such as text messages and voicemail) .
Substantial discussion took place about how these procedures and
policy will affect Board Members on their personal devices and
personal accounts and what the law requires in terms of the
retention period for emails, texts and voicemails on personal
devices, given there may be limitations based on individual storage
capacity. Also discussed were the value of retaining emails for
longer periods of time to facilitate work styles and convenient
reference, and the benefits of regularly educating staff and the
Board with regard to the PRA. The Committee was clear on the
importance of maintaining transparency in the conduct of the
District's business. Chair McGill said the District should be
transparent, practical and do the right thing.
Mr. Alm noted that clarifying case law on some of the issues raised
by the Committee will not be available for some time. In the
meantime, it will be helpful to have a policy in place with associated
procedures. He said he would work with staff to revise the draft
policy to incorporate the Committee's suggestions for review at a
future meeting.
COMMITTEE ACTION: Requested that staff (1) bring back a
revised draft policy for review at a future meeting based on the
Committee's feedback, and (2) provide information on
potential retention periods for emails to be incorporated into
the administrative procedure.
4. Other Items
a. Risk Management — Loss Control Report; discuss any outstanding claims
and new claims, if any [Continued from August 21, 2017 meeting]

Subject: Central Contra Costa Sanitary District's Comprehensive Wastewater
Master Plan Executive Summary
Dear XXX:
am proud to share with you Central Contra Costa Sanitary District's (Central San's)
Comprehensive Wastewater Master Plan (CWMP) Executive Summary. Central San is a
special district with 281 employees and a five -member elected Board of Directors. Our
mission is to protect public health and they environment through safe and effective
wastewater collection, treatment and disposal. We also operate a Household Hazardous
Waste Collection Facility, provide recycled water for landscape irrigation, and we promote
pollution prevention through informational and educational programs.
Central San's infrastructure includes a 1,500 -mile collection system and a treatment plant
that have been well maintained, but due their advanced ages, now require upgrades or
replacements.
In order to plan for the future; Central San has developed a CWMP. As you will see in the
enclosed Executive Summary, projects from the CWMP have been separated into four
programs including the recycled water system, treatment plant, collection system and general
improvements.
We take our work very seriously, as we know the community and our customers count on us
to deliver the quality service they have come to expect from Central San. We appreciate your
ongoing support, and we will continue to hold ourselves to the highest levels of accountability,
while improving the value you receive for the money and trust you place with us.
Sincerely,
Paul H. Causey, P.E.
Board President
