17 <br />land is deemed important for resource acquisition. Attachment A <br />summarizes the options for short-term land/easement acquisition on a <br />temporary basis while the Comprehensive Resource Acquisition Program <br />is developed. <br />5. Comments from the Orange County Board of Health were received on <br />Thursday, October 1. Because of this, staff has not had an opportunity to <br />review the comments. The Board of Health comments are attached as <br />Appendix F. <br />V. Proposed Effective Date and Cost <br />If the Board agrees with the recommendations herein, the Manager recommends <br />an effective date of November 23, 1998 for the new department to take effect. <br />Due to the fact that no physical change in location is required and that most of <br />the initial duties will involve workplan items already underway, this timeframe for <br />startup should be feasible. <br />Since the majority of the department's work will use existing resources, most of <br />the funding needs for FY 99 can be transferred from the Planning budget. An <br />additional estimated $52,000 would be needed as start-up costs for the new <br />department. It is recommended that this funding be appropriated from the <br />Board's $250,000 contingency for FY 99. <br />Erc10-1.doc <br />14 <br />
