11.	SUBJECT:	Veterans’ Internship Program (District: 5)
	OVERVIEW:
	The County of San Diego’s core values mandate that a skilled, competent, diverse workforce be developed and managed. In view of that, departments within the County of San Diego are always looking for the best candidates to fill entry-level and journey-level positions in a variety of occupations. A significant pool of potential candidates is the Veterans’ community of San Diego County, which has one of the largest concentrations of veterans in the State. In addition, Veterans continue to return to our region after service in Iraq and Afghanistan and thousands more will follow.
	FISCAL IMPACT:
	No operational cost since interns would be training for existing available positions.
	RECOMMENDATION:
	SUPERVISOR HORN Direct the Chief Administrative Office to (1) identify targeted job classes appropriate for Veterans, modify classifications, where needed, to recognize life skills which could include military experience, and develop protocols for departments to follow when implementing the Veterans’ Internship Program consistent with and meeting all County Human Resources and Civil Rights rules; and (2) work with County departments, other government agencies, and Veterans’ organizations to assist in recruiting viable candidates, and to report back in 180 days with a fully developed Veterans’ Internship Program and the necessary protocols.

13.	SUBJECT:	RESOLUTION TO INCREASE FISH AND GAME FEES AS MANDATED BY STATE STATUTE AND TO DECREASE/REMOVE ASSESSOR/RECORDER/COUNTY CLERK (ARCC) VHS MARRIAGE VIDEO FEES (DistrictS: ALL)
	OVERVIEW:
	Effective January 1, 2008, State law mandated an increase in fees for four Fish and Game filings collected by the Assessor/Recorder/County Clerk (ARCC). The fee for a Negative Declaration increased from $1,800 to $1,876.75, the fee for a Mitigated Negative Declaration increased from $1,800 to $1,876.75, the fee for an Environmental Impact Report increased from $2,500 to $2,606.75 and the fee for an Environmental Document pursuant to a Certified Regulatory Program increased from $850 to $886.25. ARCC is proposing the adoption of the attached resolution to set these four fees at the 2008 level. Additionally, the Assessor/Recorder/County Clerk proposes to decrease the VHS wedding video tape fee from $10.00 to $5.00. The VHS technology has become outdated and has been replaced by DVDs, which ARCC currently sells for $10.00. The fee reduction will help reduce and phase out the VHS inventory. Once the inventory has been sold, it is proposed that the fee for VHS tapes be removed from the County fee schedule.
	FISCAL IMPACT:
	There is no impact to the FY 07-08 Operational Plan from the increase in revenue for Fish and Game fees, as all revenue generated by these fees is transferred to the State. The VHS fee decrease will result in no change for FY 07-08 Operational Plan because of off-setting over-realized revenue from DVD sales. No additional staff years are required.
