Mr. Brent Cooper
Community Development Director
City of American Canyon
4381 Broadway Avenue, Suite 201
American Canyon, CA 94503
Re: Inclusionary Housing Proposal
Dear Mr. Cooper:

We are writing to provide a preliminary proposal intended to meet the City of American Canyon’s Inclusionary Housing (“IH”) requirements as detailed in Chapter 19.28 of the Municipal Code. Chapter

19.28.050 provides for Inclusionary Alternatives, which we are proposing with the project.

The Development Application includes 216 single family detached market rate lots, which under the IH’s requirement for 10% lower-income units will require 22 units of affordable housing. To meet those requirements, we are proposing an alternative consisting of 54 Deed Restricted Accessory Dwelling Units (“ADUs”) interspersed throughout the market rate development at the following affordable levels:

Income Level Proposed
Very low 26 units (50%)
Low 26 units (50%)
The ADU units will each include deed restrictions limiting prospective tenant’s income based on this distribution, ensuring additional new housing stock that is available in the marketplace for low- and very low-income residents based on the area median income.

The applicant has identified a number of benefits of providing the affordable housing to American Canyon in this manner, as follows:

1. Increased Supply: This ADU program increases American Canyon’s housing supply with 54 new additional residential units. The ADU units will help reduce demand on other housing opportunities, including other affordable programs and apartment communities.

2. Flexibility The ADU product offers flexibility to residents that typical inclusionary units lack. Residents may utilize the ADU unit for additional income, while concurrently providing new housing stock to those in need of affordable housing. In addition, the flexibility with this plan allows for multi-generational living opportunities. We view this flexibility as a benefit that helps add supply to the housing market while providing optionality to residents.

3. Down payment: The ADU program is particularly useful to first time homebuyers.

Buyers often use rental income from an ADU to help qualify for their mortgages. This rental income may help reduce the downpayment required as well as the total monthly housing cost.

Lastly, it is important to note that pursuant to Government Code sections 65852.2 subdivision (m) and section 65583.1, ADU’s may be utilized towards meeting the Regional Housing Need Allocation (RHNA) and Annual Progress Report pursuant to Government Code section 65400.

The definition of ADU’s includes both attached and detached product. In this case, the proposal conforms to the definition of an attached ADU under Government Code section 65852.22.

Following approval of the development, the applicant will work with staff to develop a “Declaration of Restrictive Covenant for Accessory Dwelling Units,” which would be recorded on title against each unit that includes an ADU unit (please see enclosed sample).

We look forward to working with staff to create exciting new housing opportunities at a wide range of income levels. Please do not hesitate to contact us should you have any questions.

Sincerely,
Steve Reilly

Hi Debra,
Thank you for your interest in the Promontory Subdivision. The Promontory project consists of 216 new single-family homes, of which 54 will include a junior accessory dwelling unit (JADU). Each JADU will be limited to lower income residents.

Other homes restricted to lower income residents at this time are limited to rental options in American Canyon and elsewhere in Napa County.

A list of current income-restricted rental
properties is available on the City of Napa Housing Authority website at this address:
https://rb.gy/x4qer.

Also, a new affordable apartment project, Lemos Pointe Apartments, is under construction close to the NVRG site. The apartment includes a picnic area, playground, and a half basketball court. To be placed on the interest list, please call (707)927-0809 or visit their website at https://www.lemospointeapts.com/.

I have copied the developer’s project manager on this email, who may share additional information on this matter.

Kind regards,

Hi Al,
Thank you for your comments regarding the Promontory Subdivision in Watson Ranch.

You mentioned that you are concerned with losing views of hills in American Canyon. You will be pleased to know the Promontory homes are limited to two-stories. The Promontory neighborhood is located in the eastern side of Watson Ranch. So, these homes should not be visible from Highway 29/Broadway.

With regard to building heights, in 2006 the City Council approved a Community Commercial zoning code amendment that allows residential or mixed-use buildings to be 3-stories west of Broadway and 4-stories east of Broadway (Ordinance 2006-07). According to the applicant, the hotel requires 4 stories to be financially feasible. In response to the Home2Suites applicant’s building height request, the City Council added hotels (i.e.: lodging) to the list of uses that may be 4 stories east of Broadway in 2018.

Since 2018, the Home2 Suites hotel site now has a Local Serving Mixed Use (LSMU) zoning district, but the 4-story height limit remains. The Home2 Suites hotel project is not part of the Promontory Subdivision.

Kind regards,

Hi Cindy,
Thank you for your comment on the Promontory Subdivision.

You mentioned that you were opposed to this new housing development. The Promontory project includes 216 new single-family homes, of which 54 will include a junior accessory dwelling unit (JADU). Each JADU will be limited to lower income residents.

As discussed in a previous e-mail, the Watson Ranch Specific Plan (WRSP) was approved in 2018.

The Promontory Subdivision is a privately-financed development on private land. Because this project has zoning to allow single family homes, and was contemplated in the WRSP, extraordinary conditions would need to exist to prevent the property owner(s) from exercising their property rights to develop the project.

Kind regards,

Hi Maria,
Thank you for your interest in the new Promontory Subdivision homes.

The Promontory project includes 216 new single-family homes, of which 54 of them will include a junior accessory dwelling unit (JADU). The JADUs will be limited to lower income residents. At this time, construction is one year or longer from now.

Elsewhere in American Canyon and in Napa County Homes, there are rental homes restricted to lower income residents.

A list of current income-restricted rental properties is available on the City of Napa Housing Authority website at this address: https://rb.gy/x4qer Also, a new affordable apartment project, Lemos Pointe Apartments, is under construction close to the NVRG site.

Hi Margaret,
Thank you for expressing a concern that there are no single level homes in Watson Ranch. Whether homes have one, two, or three stories is a private business decision by the applicant and property owner. We have copied the Promontory applicant to provide them with an opportunity to explain the reason all homes in the Promontory project have two stories.

If you’re interested in a new single-story custom home, the Canyon Estates subdivision contains 35 lots with amazing views. You can find out more about Canyon Estates at this link. You can also contact the project manager, Dick Loewke, at this phone number 925-679-4850.

TO: Mayors, Council Members, City Clerks, and City Managers RE: DESIGNATION OF VOTING DELEGATES AND ALTERNATES
League of California Cities Annual Conference and Expo, Sept. 20-22, 2023, Sacramento SAFE Credit Union Convention Center
Every year, the League of California Cities convenes a member-driven General Assembly at the Cal Cities Annual Conference and Expo. The General Assembly is an important opportunity where city officials can directly participate in the development of Cal Cities policy.

Taking place on Sept. 22, the General Assembly is comprised of voting delegates appointed by each member city; every city has one voting delegate. Your appointed voting delegate plays an important role during the General Assembly by representing your city and voting on resolutions.

To cast a vote during the General Assembly, your city must designate a voting delegate and up to two alternate voting delegates, one of whom may vote if the designated voting delegate is unable to serve in that capacity. Voting delegates may either be an elected or appointed official.

Please complete the attached voting delegate form and email it to Cal Cities office no later than Monday, August 28.

New this year, we will host a pre-conference information session for voting delegates to explain their role. Submitting your voting delegate form by the deadline will allow us time to establish voting delegate/alternate records prior to the conference and provide preconference communications with voting delegates.

Please view Cal Cities’ event and meeting policy in advance of the conference.

Action by Council Required. Consistent with Cal Cities bylaws, a city’s voting delegate and up to two alternates must be designated by the city council. When completing the attached Voting Delegate form, please attach either a copy of the council resolution that reflects the council action taken or have your city clerk or mayor sign the form affirming that the names provided are those selected by the city council.

Please note that designating the voting delegate and alternates must be done by city council action and cannot be accomplished by individual action of the mayor or city manager alone.

Council Action Advised by August 28, 2023
597
Conference Registration Required. The voting delegate and alternates must be registered to attend the conference. They need not register for the entire conference; they may register for Friday only. Conference registration is open on the Cal Cities website.

For a city to cast a vote, one voter must be present at the General Assembly and in possession of the voting delegate card and voting tool. Voting delegates and alternates need to pick up their conference badges before signing in and picking up the voting delegate card at the voting delegate desk. This will enable them to receive the special sticker on their name badges that will admit the voting delegate into the voting area during the General Assembly.

Transferring Voting Card to Non-Designated Individuals Not Allowed. The voting delegate card may be transferred freely between the voting delegate and alternates, but only between the voting delegate and alternates. If the voting delegate and alternates find themselves unable to attend the General Assembly, they may not transfer the voting card to another city official.

Seating Protocol during General Assembly. At the General Assembly, individuals with a voting card will sit in a designated area. Admission to the voting area will be limited to the individual in possession of the voting card and with a special sticker on their name badge identifying them as a voting delegate.

The voting delegate desk, located in the conference registration area of the SAFE Credit Union Convention Center in Sacramento, will be open at the following times:

Wednesday, Sept. 20, 8:00 a.m.- 6:00 p.m. and Thursday, Sept. 21, 7:30 a.m.- 4:00 p.m. On Friday, Sept. 22, the voting delegate desk will be open at the General Assembly, starting at 7:30 a.m., but will be closed during roll calls and voting.

The voting procedures that will be used at the conference are attached to this memo.

Please share these procedures and this memo with your council and especially with the individuals that your council designates as your city’s voting delegate and alternates.

Once again, thank you for completing the voting delegate and alternate form and returning it to Cal Cities office by Monday, Aug. 28. If you have questions, please contact Zach Seals at [email protected].

Sixty days before the
Annual Conference and
Expo, Cal Cities members
may submit policy
proposals on issues of
importance to cities. The
resolution must have the concurrence
of at least five additional member cities
or individual members.

How it works: Cal Cities
Resolutions and the General Assembly
General Assembly
General Resolutions
Policy Committees
Developing League of California Cities policy is a dynamic process that engages a wide range of members to ensure that we are representing California cities with one voice. These policies directly guide Cal Cities advocacy to promote local decision-making, and lobby against statewide policy that erodes local control.

The resolutions process and General Assembly is one way that city officials can directly participate in the development of Cal Cities policy. If a resolution is approved at the General Assembly, it becomes official Cal Cities policy. Here’s how Resolutions and the General Assembly works.

The petitioned resolution
is an alternate method
to introduce policy
proposals during the
annual conference. The
petition must be signed by
voting delegates from 10% of member
cities, and submitted to the Cal Cities
President at least 24 hours before the
beginning of the General Assembly.

Petitioned Resolutions
The Cal Cities President
assigns general resolutions
to policy committees where
members review, debate,
and recommend positions for
each policy proposal. Recommendations are
forwarded to the Resolutions Committee.

Who’s who
The Resolutions
Committee includes
representatives from
each Cal Cities diversity
caucus, regional
division, municipal
department, policy
committee, as well as
individuals appointed by
the Cal Cities president.

Voting delegates
are appointed by each
member city; every city
has one voting delegate.

The General Assembly
is a meeting of the
collective body of
all voting delegates —
one from every
member city.

Seven Policy
Committees meet
throughout the year to
review and recommend
positions to take on
bills and regulatory
proposals. Policy
committees include
members from each Cal
Cities diversity caucus,
regional division,
municipal department,
as well as individuals
appointed by the Cal
Cities president.

During the General Assembly, voting delegates
debate and consider general and petitioned
resolutions forwarded by the Resolutions Committee.

Potential Cal Cities bylaws amendments are also
considered at this meeting.

Cal Cities policy
development is a
member-informed
process, grounded
in the voices and
experiences of city
officials throughout
the state.

For more information visit www.calcities.org/general-assembly Prior to the Annual Conference and Expo
Resolutions Committee
The Resolutions Committee
considers all resolutions.

General Resolutions approved1
by either a policy committee
or the Resolutions Committee
are next considered by the General
Assembly. General resolutions not approved,
or referred for further study by both a policy
committee and the Resolutions Committee
do not go the General Assembly. All
Petitioned Resolutions are considered by the
General Assembly, unless disqualified.2
• Voting delegates will receive increased communications to prepare them for their role during the General Assembly.
• The General Assembly will take place earlier to allow more time for debate and discussion.
• Improvements to the General Assembly process will make it easier for voting delegates to discuss and debate resolutions.

What’s new in 2023?
During the Annual Conference and Expo
1 The Resolution Committee can amend a general resolution prior to sending it to the General Assembly. 2 Petitioned Resolutions may be disqualified by the Resolutions Committee according to Cal Cities Bylaws Article VI. Sec. 5(f). 601

Wastewater Operations Quarterly Update

RECOMMENDATION
Receive an update on Wastewater Operations.

CONTACT
Erica Ahmann Smithies, P.E., Public Works Director
Jay Atkinson, Wastewater Operations Manager

BACKGROUND & ANALYSIS
The Maintenance and U2li2es Department is responsible for the treatment and distribu2on of drinking water; sewer collec2ons, wastewater treatment; compliance with all environmental regula2ons related to water, wastewater, stormwater, and solid waste; and management of the City’s facili2es and fleet. The City operates a Water Treatment Facility, Water Reclama2on Facility (WRF) and Corporation Yard. The WRF processes wastewater for either discharge to receiving waters or for recycled water production and distribution.

The City’s WRF was the first commissioned in 2002 as one of the first Membrane Bio-Reactor (MBR) Treatment Facilities in the state of California. Its design allows for an average dry weather flow of 2.5 million gallons per day (MGD), and a peak wet weather flow of 5 MGD. Currently, serving approximately 25,000 residents, along with businesses, including large food processors and other industrial discharges. There are four MBR process trains, each consis2ng of an anoxic zone and an aerobic zone. The WRF is both a secondary and ter2ary treatment facility; secondary water is UV disinfected and discharged to the Napa River, while tertiary water is chlorinated for irrigation.

The sewer collec2ons division, which is now located at the WRF, maintains 54 miles of underground pipe, 5 pump sta2ons, lateral cleaning and sewer repairs, CCTV or video underground pipe, respond to any and every sanitary sewer overflow (SSO). The sewer collec2ons division staff assists all other divisions as needed.

Event Type Committee Report
Event Title:* Napa Valley Transportation Authority (NVTA) Event Report: The NVTA Board met and addressed the following:

Updates from MTC, ABAG and the Executive Director (Tesla and Chargepoint want to work with us to install charging stations; there is some fiscal relief for the Transit Fiscal Cliff, but not much; and we're building up interest in our VCommute program--trying to shift drivers to carpools, bikes and transit) Project Updates--Soscol Junction is moving along and may be ready by the end of this calendar year!!; Vine Trail is moving and may also be done by the end of the year; our 29 project will solicit proposals for the Environmental Review this Fall.

We need to start thinking about bike lanes and sidewalk projects--the next funding cycle starts in 2024! We also met as the Tax Authority for Measure T.  In that regard, we heard the polling results relating to changes in Measure T.  Basically, the goal is to leave the tax rate alone, extend the tax for another five years, and allow for bonding; that is, proceeds from Measure T could be used to pay the debt service on bonds to be used to make capital improvements now, rather than wait years.

The good news is, the voters are generally very supportive of changing the tax as long as we're not increasing the tax!  The bad news is, it is relatively easy to dissuade them with standard criticisms (taxes are too high already; why let politicians spend more of our money, etc.)  So, we're actually in a good position to start and we'll need to work hard explaining the merits of the measure to our residents.  Tentatively, this is scheduled to go to the voters in November 2024.

Event Report: Met with Supervisor Belia Ramos:  we talked about the upcoming LACO issue on annexing Green Island Vineyards into the Fire District; possible partnerships between the City and the County; and other issues.

Attended the annual Key Club Senior Sendoff party at Silver Oak Park.  As the only adult, I didn't stay long, but it was fun to wish everyone a successful life!  And I came with pizzas! Attended the Kiwanis Board Meeting, and prepared for the General Membership Meeting Helped with food distribution at the Aquatics Center, as part of the Kiwanis Food Pantry.

Watched a Risk Management webinar relating to volunteer programs--a good refresher course on minimizing risks.

Attended the Farm Bureau's Love of the Land event--thank you, Council member Aboudamous for the ticket!!  It was a great event--the food was incredible (a lobster feed, similar to what we had at the St. Helena Fire Station), and it was fun to see St. Senator Bill Dodd and others get recognition.  Also handy--had a chance to chat with Senate Candidate/Vallejo Vice Mayor ROZZANA VERDER-ALIGA.

Walked the picket line at Vallejo Kaiser on behalf of the Health Workers--this is becoming a regular event, and I wish Kaiser and the Union would work things out!
