DESCRIPTION Vector Control Services have been provided in prior
years by the Alameda County Health Care Services Agency, Division of
Environmental Health. The City Council voted at its regular meeting on
-January 9 , 1984 to decline the offer to be included in the County Service
`Area and Benefit Assessment for Vector Control . The County was notified of
this decision--A-nd—j-t was requested that the County continue to provide the
current level of service- to—the_City of Dublin.
Staff has been notified that effective July 1 , 1984 , the Alameda County
Vector Control Staff and its budget were transferred to the newly created
Vector Control District . The County Counsel has ruled that funds cannot be
expended outside the District . Recognizing the need to have some level of
service, Staff has received a list of potential options:
( 1) Not provide vector control services
( 2 ) Have existing staff provide the services
( 3 ) Hire additional staff to provide the services
( 4 ) Contract the services to another agency or private firm
Given Dublin ' s organizational structure, Staff has proceeded with
investigating contracting with the County.
In preliminary discussions with the Director of the Environmental Health
Division, he has expressed an interest in providing services . This will
facilitate a coordinated effort in the area of vector control in this area
of the County. On a conceptual basis, Staff has proposed that the City pay
$28 .50 for each hour of service provided and that the annual cost would not
exceed $5 ,000 . If the City of Dublin was a part of the District and had
5 ,000 assessment units , each of which is charged $3 . 15 , the cost to
taxpayers would be approximately $15 , 750 .
