  1. Acknowledge that the following findings made on May 1, 2007 are still in effect:
    1. That the unexpected failure of a water system booster pump at the Hall of Justice constitutes an emergency as defined by Section 1102 of the Public Contract Code;
    2. That there are only two booster pumps for the facility, and it is suspected that the remaining pump could also fail at any time, including during the time required to solicit competitive bids to replace the pump assembly;
    3. That if the remaining pump fails before the first pump has been replaced, the County Jail portion of the Hall of Justice would no longer be habitable for the inmates;
    4. That there currently is no alternate location to house the inmates in the event the County Jail portion of the Hall of Justice suddenly becomes uninhabitable and remains so during repair;
    5. That the circumstances in (a), (b) and (c) create a need for immediate action to replace the entire pump assembly to prevent impairment of the health and safety of the inmates housed in the County Jail portion of the Hall of Justice and impairment of the essential public service of providing secure detention of inmates; and
    6. That upon the circumstances set forth in 1(a) through (e) and pursuant to Public Contract Code Sections 20134(a) and 22050(a)(2), that the foregoing emergency will not permit the delay that would result from adopting plans, specifications, strain sheets or working details or giving notice for competitive bids to replace the pump assembly.
  2. Per Public Contract Code Section 22050(C), review the emergency actions taken by the Board at the May 1 Board of Supervisors meeting, determine that there is a need to continue the emergency actions, and continue acquisition of all necessary materials, supplies, equipment and labor by direct purchase, force account, or emergency contract awarded without adoption of plans and specifications and solicitation of competitive bids, as appropriate to complete the work (4/5ths vote required); and
