REQUEST:  
9.  
County Counsel requests that the following item be continued to  
August 4, 2026:  
County Code, Title 5 - Personnel Ordinance Amendment  
Ordinance for introduction amending County Code, Title 5 - Personnel,  
to temporarily amend Civil Service Rules 2, 4, 12, 18, and 26 for the  
duration of the Probation Department emergency to assist Probation in  
adequately managing its employees in Probation sworn classifications  
to maintain a safe environment for youth during the staffing shortage;

READING AND PLACE ON THE AGENDA FOR ADOPTION (Relates to  
Agenda No. 7) (Continued from the meeting of 4-28-26) (26-1873)  
SUPPLEMENTAL AGENDA  
January 2025 Windstorm and Critical Fire Events Bi-Weekly  
Emergency Contracts Report  
11-A.  
Recommendation: Review the emergency actions ordered and taken by  
the Director of Internal Services, under delegated authority by the  
Board, acting as both the County and the Governing Body of various  
Districts, under Board Order No. 13-C of January 28, 2025, to respond  
to and recover from the January 2025 Windstorm and Critical Fire  
Events, including the Palisades Fire, Eaton Fire, Hurst Fire, Kenneth  
Fire, and multiple other fires (LA County Fires) (1, 3 and 5) and  
actions enumerated in the aforementioned authorities (Actions), without  
giving notice for bids to let contracts, and determine that there is a  
need to continue the emergency Actions. Find that there is substantial  
evidence that the January 2025 Windstorm and Critical Fire Events  
continue to constitute an emergency pursuant to Public Contract Code  
Section 22050, which requires that immediate action be taken to  
cleanup and reconstruct public property, buildings, facilities, and  
infrastructure because the emergency does not permit the delay  
resulting from a formal competitive solicitation of bids and/or proposals  
to procure construction, materials, equipment and services for projects  
and initiatives necessary to respond to and recover from the LA County  
Fires. Find that authority should, therefore, continue to be delegated to  
the Director of Internal Services to amend or extend and supplement  
existing as-needed or on-call contracts without giving notice for bids to  
let contracts related to facilities and related support services, and to  
award new contracts for response to and recovery from the LA County  
Fires, and such contracts should be issued because they are  
necessary to respond to the emergency. (Internal Services  
Department) APPROVE 4-VOTES (25-1148)
