Public Scoping Meeting: The City will hold a virtual scoping meeting to provide an opportunity for agency staff and interested members of the public to submit written and oral comments on the scope of the environmental issues to be addressed in the EIR. The scoping meeting will be held on July 28, 2022 at 6:30 p.m. To attend the scoping meeting, go to https://zoom.us/join.

Webinar ID: 884 4514 1942
Passcode: 038881
Dial: (408) 638 0968
The scoping presentation will be available to view after July 28, 2022 on https://www.cityofamericancanyon.org/government/city-hall/city-clerk/meetings-agendas.

Project Background: The City must undertake a technical update to its General Plan to ensure the General Plan is internally consistent and maintains a balance of land uses; maintains and supports quality-of-life, community satisfaction, and safety for all residents; and meets new State requirements. A Regional Location map is included as Figure 1.

Project Location: The General Plan Update will encompass the City of American Canyon city limits, the Sphere of Influence, Urban Limit Line, and historic water service area (Figure 2).

Proposed Project: The American Canyon General Plan update will serve as a long-term framework for future growth and development. The General Plan represents the community’s view of its future and contains the goals and polices upon which the City Council, Planning Commission, staff, and the entire community will base land use and resource decisions. To provide a contemporary plan that will guide the community through the next 20 years, the General Plan update will reflect recent development decisions and changes in State law. Major components of the comprehensive technical General Plan Update include:
• Land Use Element. This element will resolve inconsistencies between existing and General Plan land uses, expand the Urban Limit Line to include the “Hess/Laird Property,” and accommodate land use amendments for certain properties owned by the Napa Valley Unified School District. Proposed land use amendments are depicted in Figure 3. The proposed Urban Limit Line is shown in Figure 4. • Circulation Element. This element will incorporate Vehicle Miles Travelled policies consistent with Senate Bill 743 (SB 743); update street standards for all modes, including pedestrians, bicyclists, and transit consistent with the California Complete Streets Act; include two new Industrial Collector roadways: 1) a new “West Side Connector” roadway segment and 2) a Newell Drive roadway segment between Paoli Loop and S. Kelly Drive and delete former planned connection between Commerce Court and Eucalyptus Drive. See Figure 5.
• Community Services Element. This element will focus on goals and policies related to public services, including police, fire, and emergency services.

Notice of Preparation
City of American Canyon General Plan Update

• Open Space and Recreation Element. This element will address the wide variety of parks, trails, and open spaces serving the diverse recreation needs of American Canyon residents, particularly youth, and emphasize the unique features of the City’s natural environment – from the Newell Open Space to the east to the wetlands and trails to the west.
• Conservation Element. This element will consider the effects of existing and planned development on natural resources located on public lands, including military installations, consistent with Government Code Section 65302(d). This Element will address State law requirements, including air quality, greenhouse gas emissions, and climate change adaptation. • Safety Element. This element will cover seismic activity, other geologic hazards, fire hazards, hazardous materials, flooding, and other potential hazards, consistent with Government Code Section 65302(g). It will also address resiliency and risks from natural hazards in American Canyon, pursuant to Senate Bill (SB) 379. This element update will require a vulnerability analysis to comply with State law. • Noise Element. This element will require, consistent with Government Code Section 65302(f), the inclusion of new existing noise contours as well as projected noise contours based on future traffic volumes projected to arise from improvements planned for in the Circulation Element. • Housing Element. This element will be an update for the 2023-2031 RHNA cycle to adequately plan to meet the housing needs of everyone in the community, consistent with Government Code Section 65583.

Due to State-Mandated deadlines, the Housing Element update is anticipated to be completed earlier than the rest of the comprehensive technical General Plan update. • Implementation. This chapter will be a comprehensive implementation strategy with discrete, tangible actions that the City will undertake to carry out all the Plan’s goals, policies, and objectives. It will also highlight goals, policies, and programs related to administration of the General Plan. The chapter will detail timing, potential funding sources, and the responsible parties for each implementation measure.

Project Alternatives: The EIR will evaluate a reasonable range of proposed project alternatives that, consistent with CEQA, meet most of the proposed project objectives and reduce or avoid potential environmental effects, including a required No Project Alternative.

Potential Environmental Effect Areas: The EIR will describe the reasonably foreseeable and potentially significant adverse effects of the proposed project (both direct and indirect). The EIR also will evaluate the cumulative impacts of the proposed project when considered in conjunction with other related past, present, and reasonably foreseeable future projects. The City preliminarily anticipates that the proposed project could result in potentially significant environmental impacts in the following topic areas, which will be further evaluated in the EIR. 1419

Subject: Napa County Bicycle Coalition Crawford Way Apartment and General Plan Comments Hello Kara,
I would like to thank you for your thoughtful comments on the 2040 General Plan update. We greatly value our partnership with the Napa County Bicycle Coalition.

We agree with nearly all your proposed changes and have notated your comment letter to identify the changes that have been incorporated into the General Plan.

One area of your comment letter that staff is unable to accommodate involves the Bike Coalition's recommendations for service standards. Examples include committing to a specific percentage VMT reduction by 2045, completing 50% of our active transportation network by 2040, street sweeping schedules, and similar suggestions.

While staff does not necessarily disagree with the intent and benefits of these standards, they require City Council policy direction related to general plan implementation. Your letter will be included in the agenda packet for all three Commissions (Planning, OSATS, and PCS) as well as the City Council packet, which ensures that your ideas will reach our Commissioners and Council members.

We appreciate your interest in the General Plan Update and look forward to continuing to discuss ideas for improved active transportation in American Canyon.

Best regards,
Brent Cooper, AICP

4381 Broadway Street, Suite 201,
American Canyon, CA 94503
RE: 2040 General Plan Update
Dear Mr. Holley,
The Napa County Bicycle Coalition—which works to make biking in Napa County safe, accessible, and convenient—appreciates many of the goals and guiding principles of the draft 2040 General Plan (“the Plan”), including the intention to “Include funding for the City's Bicycle Plan updates and bikeway improvements consistent with the Bicycle Plan in the City's transportation financing program and TIF, recognizing the multi-modal travel needs of the City.” We appreciate the attention throughout the Plan to active transportation and to how it is recognized as a key strategy to meet climate goals.

We also noticed several opportunities where we believe new or updated language would make the plan stronger and better set it up for success. Those changes are detailed in the table below, but we also wanted to note the following to give context to our requests and recommendations:
• We would like to see the Open Space, Active Transportation, and Sustainability Commission (OSATS) explicitly included in decision-making on active transportation facilities, especially when the City of American Canyon is considering deviating from its Active Transportation Plan, on which, presumably, the OSATS will have provided input.

This will help leverage the unique perspective and expertise the OSATS can provide and to increase the return on investment the City has made in convening this advisory body. • We urge the City to be as specific and measurable as possible in setting goals and policies. If including specific targets, such as those related to reducing Vehicle Miles Traveled or implementing the Active Transportation Plan, comes with concerns, then inserting “strive to meet…”, or a similar phrase is an option, too. Setting and including specific targets helps all staff and community members to be on the same page, it signals true commitment, and it aids in setting appropriate timelines. • We request that the City consider including policies related to Safe Routes to School, a partnership that is integral to increasing safety and educating and encouraging active transportation users. Funding for Safe Routes programming is tenuous each year and will need the ongoing collaboration of all jurisdictions to ensure its sustainability.

Currently, the American Canyon Police Department supports Safe Routes programming in American Canyon by sharing the quarterly data that is required to secure funding, and a representative will begin participating in the Safe Routes to School Advisory Committee in 2025. As well, a policy related to securing and maintaining a Bicycle Friendly Communities designation would help build on current momentum toward this goal and would help maintain the effort into the future. 1429

BACKGROUND & ANALYSIS
This item for Council’s considera,on regarding the American Canyon Landscaping and Ligh,ng Assessment District (LLAD). Harris & Associates is the Assessment Engineer for the American Canyon LLAD. In that role, they have prepared the FY2025/26 Annual Engineer’s Report.

The annual filing of an Engineer’s Report is required by the Landscaping & Ligh,ng Act of 1972.

Proposed adjustments to the annual assessments are described below. The complete FY2025/26 Engineer’s Report is shown in ACachment 1, Exhibit A. In addi,on to the report, City staff mailed no,ces to all residents in Zones 1 and 2 regarding two informa,onal in-person park pop-ups held in April 2025.

Staff is reques,ng City Council to ini,ate proceedings, preliminarily approve the FY2025/26 Annual Engineer’s Report, declare the inten,on to levy and collect assessments, and set the Public Hearing for considera,on of the American Canyon Landscaping and Ligh,ng Assessment District assessments for FY2025/26 for June 3, 2025, at 6:30 p.m. in the Council Chambers.

The American Canyon LLAD is divided into three (3) zones:

Zone 1: In January 2001, the City Council approved the forma,on of the LLAD. At the ,me, the purpose of the LLAD was to operate and maintain facilities constructed within the La Vigne subdivision. This area of the LLAD is known as Zone 1. The annual work associated with 1434
maintaining the facili,es within Zone 1 includes opera,on and maintenance of landscaping in public areas, pedestrian paths, the streetscape of Via Bellagio, and the park areas. Also included are the operation and maintenance of the streetlights within the neighborhood.

Zone 2: Zone 2 encompasses the Vintage Ranch subdivision and includes opera,on and maintenance of parks, environmentally sensi,ve areas, bike trails, streetscape, water basins, fencing, walls, street lighting, and a portion of traffic signals within the subdivision.

Zone 3: Zone 3 encompasses the Napa Junc,on mixed-use development consis,ng of phases I, II & III which includes the opera,on and maintenance of landscaping, streetscape, bikeways, water basins, park areas, fencing, street ligh,ng and a por,on of traffic signals serving the development. It also includes mowing the frontage along Highway 29 between Rio Del Mar and Napa Junction Road.

Assessment Methodology:

The Report includes a descrip,on of each zone in the LLAD, any proposed changes to the zones, the opposed costs to operate and maintain the improvements, the method of appor,onment (spread) of the assessments, the assessment roll for all parcels, and the assessment diagrams (maps). As mentioned above, there will be no annexations to the LLAD this fiscal year.

Assessment Calculation:

The ac,vi,es described in the report are paid for by assessments on parcels that derive special benefit from the ameni,es located within the LLAD. The assessments are updated annually in order account for changes in maintenance budgets and changes in development paCerns. Staff has verified the proposed FY 2025/26 assessments do not exceed the maximum assessment allowed.

The table below illustrates all of the proposed FY 2025/26 assessments:

Zone
Actual 23/24
Assessment
Actual 24/25
Assessment
Proposed 25/26
Assessment
Maximum 25/26
Assessment
1 $422.40 $447.44 $459.78 $727.06
2 $319.36 $338.52 $358.82 $1,114.41
3 $1,079.22/acre
($219.18/unit)
$1,079.92/acre
($219.18/unit)
$1,109/acre
($225.22/unit)
$2,458.60/acre
($407.58/unit)
Zone 1
The total proposed Zone 1 budget (Total Expenses) for FY 2025/26 is $359,933. This budget is based on current landscaping contracts, expected increases in landscaping contracts based on preliminary bids, historical cost review, and professional es,mates of labor efforts required to maintain the facilities.

The proposed Zone 1 annual assessment rate to levy and collect is proposed to be $ 459.78 per ESD.

This represents an increase of 2.76% but s,ll below the allowable maximum. The new maximum annual assessment for Zone 1 is $727.06 per ESD which includes the 2.76% CPI increase. 1435
Zone 2
The total proposed Zone 2 budget (Total Expenses) for FY 2025/26 is $550,748. This budget is based on current landscaping contracts and expected increases based on preliminary bids, historical cost review, and professional estimates of labor efforts required to maintain the facilities.

The proposed funding will be $308,729 from FY 2024-25 assessments, and $519,326 from available reserves. This includes a $32,300 contribu,on from the general fund to account for general benefit for the use of Shenandoah and Silver Oak parks. Funds have been included in the in the FY 2025-26 budget for a capital improvement project to include a permanent restroom at Silver Oak Park. The proposed budget includes the full year maintenance funding for all facili,es including the Environmentally Sensitive Areas.

The proposed Zone 2 annual assessment rate to levy and collect is proposed to be $358.82. This represents an increase of 6% but s,ll below the allowable maximum assessment. The new maximum annual assessment for Zone 2 is $1114.47 per ESD which includes the 2.76% annual CPI increase.

Zone 3
The total proposed Zone 3 expenses for FY 2025-26 is $285,500. This budget is based on current landscaping contracts, expected increases in landscaping contracts based on preliminary bids, historical cost review, and professional es,mates of labor efforts required to maintain the facili,es.

The proposed funding will be $179,640 from FY 2025-26 assessments and $105,860 to reserves. No general fund contributions are proposed.

The proposed annual assessment to levy and collect for each parcel within Zone 3 is $1,109.00 per acre or por,on thereof plus $225.22 per ESD. There is no proposed increase in the assessment rate for FY 2025-26. The new maximum assessment is $2,458.60 per acre or por,on thereof and $407.58 per ESD. The new maximum assessments include the allowed 2.76% CPI increase.

FISCAL IMPACT
There is a General Fund impact by this ac,on in the amount of $30,473 for contribu,ons to Zone 2 for general public benefit use of Shenandoah and Silver Oak parks. The General Fund contribu,on is included in the proposed FY 2025/26 Opera,ng Budget. All other costs associated with the annual proceedings and the opera,on, maintenance, and administra,on of the Assessment District improvements are recovered from the assessments levied and collected on the parcels within each zone.

The total proposed Assessment District budget for FY 2025/26 for all three Zones is as follows:

Proposed Budget
Zone 1 Budget $359,933
Zone 2 Budget $550,748
1436
Zone 3 Budget $285,500
Operating Reserve Contributions ($202,806)
Capital Reserve Contributions ($290,748)
Balance to Assessment $702,627
A more detailed budget for each zone showing the prior year's expenses and projections for the next two fiscal years is shown in the aCached Engineer’s Report for FY 2025/26. This is done to provide each zone’s property owners with informa,on on trends and poten,al upcoming expenses, including planned capital expenditures.

ENVIRONMENTAL REVIEW
The use or change of property assessments as a funding mechanism for the opera,ons and maintenance of landscaping and ligh,ng systems is not a project as defined in Sec,on 15378(b)(4) of the California Environmental Quality Act guidelines.

3 PART I – PLANS AND SPECIFICATION
Plans and Specifications

PURPOSE
The purpose of this report is to set forth findings and the engineering analysis for the American Canyon Landscaping & Lighting District, City of American Canyon (City), for the subject year as directed by the City Council of the City of American Canyon (City Council), pursuant to Section 22620 of the Streets & Highways Code (Landscaping & Lighting Act of 1972) and Articles XIII C and D of the California State Constitution (Proposition 218).

BACKGROUND
The American Canyon Landscaping & Lighting Assessment District (Assessment District) was formed in January 2001 to provide a dedicated source of funds to cover the costs associated with the operation and maintenance of landscaping and lighting improvements which provide a special benefit to the parcels within the La Vigne Subdivision (Zone 1). Both Proposition 218 and the Landscape and Lighting Act of 1972 require that the Engineer’s Report approved at the time of formation for the District establish a method of assessment, a maximum assessment amount, and any escalation factors that will be used to allow the annual assessments to keep pace with inflation. In order to take inflation into account, the 2001 formation proceedings allowed assessments to be escalated in accordance with the All Urban Consumers (San Francisco Area) CPI from the U. S. Department of Labor, Bureau of Labor Statistics. Maximum Assessments may be increased annually by the approved inflation factor without the need to provide notices and assessment ballots to property owners within the Assessment District. However, if the City proposes increasing maximum assessments in an amount above the approved inflation factor, it must conduct an assessment balloting process in accordance with Proposition 218.

Once an Assessment District is created, it is possible to annex new zones or areas into existing zones as new subdivisions are developed and new facilities require maintenance. Since 2001, the Vintage Ranch Subdivision (Zone 2) and the Napa Junction Mixed Use Development (Zone 3) have been annexed into the Assessment District. In July of 2020, the Villages at Vintage Ranch, a 159 unit apartment complex was annexed into Zone 2. The same CPI escalator provision was also approved for these projects at the time they were annexed to the Assessment District.

The Landscaping & Lighting Act of 1972 requires that an Engineer's Report be prepared and adopted by the City Council each year in order to levy and collect assessments in any following fiscal year. The City Council has appointed Harris & Associates as the Engineer of Work and directed the preparation and filing of this Annual Engineer's Report.

This Engineer's Report outlines the facilities to be maintained, the budgets proposed for this maintenance, and the assessments necessary to support these budgets. This Engineer’s Report documents any land use changes in the zones (i.e., new subdivisions) and any proposed annexations. This Engineer’s Report calculates the maximum allowable assessment for each zone based on the annual CPI escalator percentage (2.76% for 2025) and provides clear confirmation that the proposed assessments do not exceed the approved maximum including adjustments for inflation for each zone. 1445

4 The table below summarizes the maximum annual assessments allowed in Zones 1, 2 and 3, including the CPI increases, and compares the prior year assessments to the assessments proposed to be levied and collected in Fiscal Year (FY) 2025-

26. As shown, the proposed assessment within each Zone is less than the Maximum Assessment allowed, thus Proposition 218 balloting is not required in any zone.

Notes:
1 Refer to “FY 2024-25 Annual Engineer’s Report” for details on FY 2024-25. 2 United States Department of Labor, Bureau of Statistics, All Urban Consumers CPI (San Francisco Area), Annual average 2024 to 2025 = 2.76 % (348.417/339.050 = 1.027627194).

The total proposed Assessments for FY 2025-26 for all three Zones is $702,627. Expenses include $1,473,488, with $202,806 contributed to operating reserves and $568,055 taken from capital reserves. The General Fund will also contribute a total of $32,300 to account for a portion of the general benefit conferred for use in the District parks, to parcels and/or individuals not within the District boundaries but within a one-half mile radius of the parks. This is based on the service radius of neighborhood parks as defined in the City’s Parks Master Plan.

Fiscal Year 2025-26

6 The proposed funding will be $214,257 from FY 2025-26 assessments, and $145,676 from available reserves.

A Capital Reserve and Replacement study was completed during the 2020-21 fiscal year to identify the increased services to be provided and to determine the annual costs to be assessed to the property owners for the eventual replacement of certain improvements. The Capital Reserve and Replacement study will also be used to project future assessments for the Zone, and funds will need to be accumulated to account for those additional costs. Funds were included in the FY 2023-24 budget for several capital improvement projects, including resurfacing the playground at Via Bellagio Park, irrigation controller upgrades and replacement of the playground bark. These projects have all been completed as of Fiscal Year 2024-25.

Proposed Assessments
The proposed Zone 1 annual assessment rate to levy and collect is proposed to be $459.78 per ESD. This represents an increase of 2.76% which is below the allowable maximum assessment. The new maximum annual assessment for Zone 1 is $727.06 per ESD which includes the 2.76% annual CPI increase.

ZONE 2 – VINTAGE RANCH
Improvements Maintained
Zone 2 provides funding for the maintenance of landscaping, public walkways, creeks and their related improvements, creek trails, landscaping related to water quality basins and ponds, streetscapes, Class 1 bikeways, walls and fences, maintenance and electricity of street lighting, a portion of intersection traffic signals, and parks within Vintage Ranch.

Engineer’s Report
Landscape and Lighting Assessment District
City of American Canyon
Fiscal Year 2025-26

7 Property Assessed
The FY 2025-26 assessments are proposed to be levied on 860.40 ESD units, which remain unchanged from the ESD units the previous year, as this zone is fully developed. Part III provides additional discussion and findings related to the benefits provided by the zone and the parcels that receive these benefits.

In Fiscal Year 2020-21, the Villages at Vintage Ranch, a 159-unit apartment complex on the northeast corner of American Canyon Road and Highway 29, was annexed into Zone 2 of the LLAD. This annexation increased the Zone ESD by 95.40, bringing the total Zone ESD to 860.40 beginning in 2020-21 as mentioned above.

Proposed Budgets
The total proposed Zone 2 budget (Total Expenses) for FY 2025-26 is $828,055. This budget is based on current landscaping contracts and expected increases based on preliminary bids, historical cost review, and professional estimates of labor efforts required to maintain the facilities.

The proposed funding will be $308,729 from FY 2025-26 assessments, and $519,326 from available reserves. This includes a $32,300 contribution from the general fund to account for general benefit for the use of Shenandoah and Silver Oak parks. Funds have been included in the FY 2025-26 budget for a capital improvement project to include a permanent restroom at Silver Oak Park.

The proposed budget includes the full year maintenance funding for all facilities including the Environmentally Sensitive Areas.

Proposed Assessments
The proposed Zone 2 annual assessment rate to levy and collect is proposed to be $358.82. This represents an increase of 6.00% which is still below the allowable maximum assessment. The new maximum annual assessment for Zone 2 is $1,114.47 per ESD which includes the 2.76% annual CPI increase.

ZONE 3 – NAPA JUNCTION MIXED USE PROJECT
Improvements Maintained
Zone 3 maintains landscaping, streetscape, bikeways, landscaping related to water basins, park areas, fencing, street lighting and traffic signals within the Napa Junction Mixed Use Project. The Assessment Diagram in Appendix A illustrates the location of these improvements specifically:
• Streetscapes
• Class 1 Bikeways
• Highway 29 Ditch (Water Quality Basin 1)
• Small Park (Water Quality Basin 3)
• Street Lighting
• 25% of the traffic signal at Eucalyptus and Highway 29 • Caltrans right-of-way maintenance along the westerly border of the zone adjacent to the Napa Junction Phase I & II commercial development
1449
Engineer’s Report
Landscape and Lighting Assessment District
City of American Canyon
Fiscal Year 2025-26

8 • Improvements along the north and south sides of Napa Junction Road as part of the Napa Junction III development
• Multi-Use path/utility access road along the western property line of the Napa Junction III development • Parcel 4 – Open space and wetlands parcel
The assessments collected may also fund any and all incidental expenses in connection therewith, all as more particularly authorized pursuant to the Landscaping and Lighting Act of 1972.

Property Assessed
During the annexation proceedings for Zone 3, it was determined the benefits received from certain improvements would be more equitably spread by the acreage, or portion thereof, of each parcel while the benefits received from certain other improvements would be more equitably spread by Equivalent Single-Family Dwelling (ESD) units.

Zone 3 therefore has a two-part assessment formula that includes both ESD units and Acres. The Method of Apportionment of Assessment (Part C) includes a complete description of the methodology used to calculate assessments.

The FY 2025-26 assessments are proposed to be levied on 570.92 ESD units which is the same number of units from the previous year. The FY 2025-26 assessments are proposed to be levied on 46.04 acres which is also the same number of acres from the previous year. No annexations are proposed for FY 2025-26.

A mixed use (multi-family residential/commercial) development (commonly referred to as Napa Junction III), Assessor Parcel Number (APN) 059-020-001-000 was annexed into Zone 3 during the FY 2015-16 annual assessment process. It will be a phased development with street lighting and landscaping improvements to be serviced as a part of the overall Zone 3 budget. Because there were improvements in place to maintain during FY 2016-17, these new parcels were assessed at the same rate as those within Napa Junction I & II beginning in FY 2016-17.

Proposed Budgets
The total proposed Zone 3 expenses for FY 2025-26 are $285,500. This budget is based on current landscaping contracts, expected increases in landscaping contracts based on preliminary bids, historical cost review, and professional estimates of labor efforts required to maintain the facilities. The proposed funding will be $179,640 from FY 2025-26 assessments and $105,860 from available reserves. No general fund contributions are proposed.

Proposed Assessments
The proposed annual assessment to levy and collect for each parcel within Zone 3 is $1,109.00 per acre or portion thereof and $225.22 per ESD. This represents an increase of 2.76%, which is below the allowable maximum assessment per ESD/Acre. The new maximum assessment is $2,458.60 per acre or portion thereof and $407.58 per ESD. The new maximum assessments include the allowed 2.76% CPI increase. 1450

Fiscal Year 2025-26

14 Reserve Funds
Un-Restricted/Operating Reserve Collection: This item includes the amount to be collected to maintain reserves to enable the City to pay for the maintenance and servicing of the improvements prior to December 10 of the fiscal year, or whenever the City expects to receive its apportionment of special assessments and tax collections from the County, whichever is later. The Reserve Fund contribution will continue until such a time the Reserve Fund balance is approximately one half of the annual costs.

Repair/Replacement – Restricted/Capital Reserve: This item includes funds for the repair/replacement of improvements or the installation of new improvements to further enhance the level and quality of service provided within the boundaries of the District. The fund may be allowed to accumulate in anticipation of any unforeseen expenses not included in the yearly maintenance costs. This may include but is not limited to the repair/replacement of improvements at the end of their useful life, upgrading or enhancement of improvements within the District, repair of damaged equipment due to vandalism, storms, and other similar events where the costs cannot be covered by the annual assessment levy.

General Fund Contribution for Parks: This item accounts for the general benefit portion of the maintenance costs for parks and the special benefit to parcels outside the district boundary.

Neighborhood Park Service Area: The City of American Canyon’s Parks Master Plan establishes a standard service radius of one-half mile for neighborhood parks. This means any parcels located within a half-mile radius of a neighborhood park could potentially receive benefit from that park because all residents can access and use the park amenities.

The parks were installed as a condition of development and as a part of the specific developments surrounding the parks.

Those parks confer a special benefit to the parcels within the Neighborhood Park Service Area, of which those developments are located and can be assessed. There are also parcels outside the District boundary that receive special benefit from the park improvements. The parcels within the District may only be assessed for their share of special benefit from the park improvements. The share of special benefit received by parcels outside the District must be funded by sources other than District assessments, they cannot be assessed to the parcels within the District.

The General Fund Contribution for Parks, shown on the District budget pages, accounts for the portion of special benefit conferred to parcels outside the District but inside a one-half mile radius of the parks, as well as the general benefit portion. A portion of this contribution is also from rental revenue received from individuals renting the park for personal activities.

15 PART III – METHOD OF APPORTIONMENT
Method of Apportionment
Initial apportionment information relating to all zones and made a part of this report by reference here, can be found in the City of American Canyon Maintenance District No. 2001-02- (A.P.N. 059-100-006) Engineer's Report, Establishment of District and Assessments for FY 2001-02, Part D, City of American Canyon Maintenance District No. 2001-02- (A.P.N. 059- 100-006) Method of Assessment. The following is a brief description of the manner the annual assessment has been apportioned to each parcel in Zones 1, 2 and 3 within the Assessment District consistent with the approved method.

GENERAL
Part 2 of Division 15 of the Streets and Highways Code, the Landscaping and Lighting Act of 1972, permits the establishment of assessment districts by cities for the purpose of providing certain public improvements which include operation, maintenance, rehabilitation, and servicing of streetlights, traffic signals, parks and landscaping.

The 1972 Act requires that maintenance assessments be levied according to benefit rather than according to assessed value. Section 22573 provides that:
"The net amount to be assessed upon lands within an assessment district may be apportioned by any formula or method which fairly distributes the net amount among all assessable lots or parcels in proportion to the estimated benefit to be received by each such lot or parcel from the improvements." The Act permits the designation of zones of benefit within any individual assessment district if "by reasons or variations in the nature, location, and extent of the improvements, the various areas will receive different degrees of benefit from the improvement" (Sec. 22547). Thus, the 1972 Act requires the levy of a true "assessment" rather than a "special tax." In addition, Prop. 218 requires that a parcel's assessment may not exceed the reasonable cost of the proportional special benefit conferred on that parcel. Prop. 218 provides that only special benefits are assessable, and the City must separate the general benefits from the special benefits.

SPECIAL BENEFIT ANALYSIS
The Assessment District provides for the maintenance and repair of public parks and landscaping, landscaping related to water quality basins, environmentally sensitive areas, trails, bikeways, streetlights, and traffic signals. As determined at the time of formation, when these facilities are well maintained and in good working order, they provide benefits that are unique and special to the property within the district including:

Fiscal Year 2025-26

16 • Satisfaction of project design and mitigation requirements included within the CEQA documents for the development included in each zone. Satisfying these requirements uniquely benefits the property in the zone because it allows the various land uses being developed. • Satisfaction of Conditions of Approval for the development included in each zone. Satisfying these requirements uniquely benefits the property in the zone because it allows the various land uses being developed. • Provision of public safety benefits resulting from well-lit streets. Street lighting uniquely benefits the property within the zones that are adjacent to the lighting provided. • Provision of public safety benefits resulting from functioning traffic signals. Traffic signals benefit property within the zone by providing for safe ingress and egress from the property. Traffic signals also provide general benefits to all motorists that are able to travel safely on the roadway system. Twenty-five percent of the traffic signal maintenance costs are allocated to the benefiting zones reflecting the approximate amount of trips associated with development in the zones.
• Provision of public safety benefits resulting from the maintenance of water quality detention basins. The water quality detention basins are part of the storm water management system which allows for adequate drainage and prevents flooding and destruction of landscape amenities within the zones. Adequate drainage and protection from flooding is a unique and special benefit to the properties within the zones. • Provision of public recreation benefits resulting from the parks and open spaces. The parks and open spaces within each zone are designed as local features that are integrated within the development and easily accessible to neighboring properties. These features are part of the overall park system, which also includes community facilities, which provide more regionally appropriate facilities (ball fields etc.). The local parks and open spaces uniquely benefit the property within each zone because they have been designed to be accessible and useful for the developed property in each zone.
• Provision of aesthetic benefits resulting from parks, open space, and other landscaping features. The parks, open space and landscaping features are internal or directly adjacent to the properties in the zone, hence the aesthetic benefits provided from well-maintained landscaping features are experienced by the properties in the zone.
• Provision of public safety benefits resulting from the maintenance of parks and open spaces. Unmaintained parks and open spaces can attract litter, vectors and other undesirable features that create health and safety problems for adjoining properties. Adequate maintenance uniquely benefits the property in each zone because these potentially adverse effects do not occur.

17 GENERAL BENFIT ANALYSIS
Although the improvements may be visible to passersby or to the public at large, the improvements were installed as a requirement for the development of the zones and are designed for the benefit of properties within the zones. As mentioned above, the City contributes funds from the general fund to account for park usage by residents living outside the zones. This contribution was determined by identifying and separating the special and general benefit portions of the costs to maintain the parks. The City also makes contributions to landscaping improvements, upgrades, and replacements, acknowledging that there is some general benefit from the landscaping conferred to all residents of the City.

METHOD OF APPORTIONMENT
ZONES 1 AND 2 METHOD OF ASSESSMENT
The method of apportionment (spread) equates all parcels in Zones 1 and 2 to an Equivalent Single-Family Dwelling (ESD) unit, or portion thereof. The following ESD units were established for the American Canyon Landscaping and Lighting Assessment District, at its formation, and reflect the relative benefit accruing to parcels of land, in various stages of development, from the landscape and lighting facilities:

1. Vacant parcel in undeveloped area; 1/10 unit per parcel

2. Vacant parcel in developed area; 1/2 unit per parcel

3. Single dwelling parcel; 1 per unit

4. Multi-Family dwelling; 0.60 per unit
Vacant parcels in undeveloped areas experience the benefits provided from satisfying approval conditions but not the full benefits experienced when the facilities maintained by the zone are operational hence, they are assigned 1/10 of an ESD unit. Vacant parcels in developed areas experience the benefits provided from satisfying approval conditions and the public safety benefits associated with sound drainage systems. These parcels also experience some fraction of the benefits associated with safe lighting and ingress and egress but not at the same level as a fully developed parcel, hence they are assigned 1/2 of an ESD unit. Fully developed parcels experience all benefits provided by the zone. Because the land uses on both Zone 1 and 2 are relatively uniform single-family dwelling units, benefits are experienced equally. This relative equality of benefits results in an assessment methodology that spreads costs equally at full build out.

ESD units for each zone are determined annually based on the development pattern. Each zone's operation and maintenance expenses for the upcoming fiscal year is then divided by the total number of ESD units in order to calculate the annual cost per ESD unit (assessment rate) for the upcoming fiscal year. The annual assessment for each parcel is calculated by multiplying the annual cost per ESD unit (assessment rate) by the total number ESD units on the parcel in the upcoming fiscal year.
1459
Engineer’s Report
Landscape and Lighting Assessment District
City of American Canyon
Fiscal Year 2025-26

18 The method of apportionment for Zones 1 and 2 can be expressed mathematically as:

Cost per ESD Unit (Rate) = Fiscal Year Budget for Zone / Total Number of ESD Units in Zone Assessment per Parcel = Cost per ESD Unit (Rate) x No. of ESD Units on Parcel Although Section 22663 of the Streets and Highways Code typically requires that public property not be assessed, Article XIII, Section 4(a) of Proposition 218 requires that public property shall not be exempt from assessment if the property benefits from the facilities being maintained.

Zones 1 and 2 include publicly owned property which is utilized for parks, creeks, open spaces, public right-of-way, and easements. These properties serve to provide landscape, open space, drainage, and recreational benefits to the adjoining residential property. Because these properties provide special benefits rather than receive special benefits they do not receive an annual assessment.

Likewise, school sites, which provide for open space and recreational opportunities, enhance the special benefits received by residential property. In addition, school locations are required by the approval documents for the development and therefore help provide the special benefits associated with compliance with project CEQA documents and conditions of approval. Therefore, because these properties provide benefits rather than receive benefits, they are also not assessed.

Civic properties including public safety facilities and utility facilities which were constructed as a condition of approval for the residential development serve to support the special benefits received by residential properties. Because these properties support the provision of special benefits rather than receiving special benefits, they are also not assessed.

ZONE 3 METHOD OF ASSESSMENT
Unlike Zones 1 and 2, Zone 3 contains a mix of residential, commercial, industrial, and retail land uses. In order to apportion costs proportional to benefit, the method of apportionment (spread) for Zone 3 utilizes both an ESD unit component and an acreage component.

The benefits provided by the Class I bike path, three-rail fencing, streetlights, traffic signal, and the detention pond and right of way maintenance along Highway 29 are apportioned by acreage because the size of the property provides a reasonable measure of the number trips (vehicular and bicycle), length of fencing and runoff detained. Therefore, the cost of operating and maintaining these facilities is apportioned to the benefiting property based on its acreage.

The benefits provided by the streetscape, large and small parks are apportioned by ESD unit, as is done in the other two zones. These items provide benefit to and are accessible to resident families and employees of local businesses to enjoy during lunch breaks or after work hours. Non-residential land uses are converted to residential land uses, using squarefootage in order to maintain equality between the average size residential unit in the zone and the non-residential units.

The following benefit units were established for the American Canyon Landscaping and Lighting Assessment Zone 3 (Napa Junction) at the time it was annexed to the Assessment District and these reflect the relative benefit accruing the various parcels of land within the zone:
1460
Engineer’s Report
Landscape and Lighting Assessment District
City of American Canyon
Fiscal Year 2025-26

19 ESD units for Zone 3 are determined annually based on the development pattern. The operational and maintenance expenses for the upcoming fiscal year for the streetscape, large park and small park facilities are then divided by the total number of ESD units in order to calculate the annual cost per ESD unit for the upcoming fiscal year.

Acreage units within Zone 3 are also determined annually based on development. The operational and maintenance expenses for the upcoming fiscal year for Class I bike path, three-rail fencing, streetlights, traffic signal, and the detention pond and right of way maintenance along Highway 29 are then divided by the total acreage units in order to calculate the annual cost per acreage unit for the upcoming fiscal year. The annual assessment for each parcel is calculated by:

1. Multiplying the number of ESD units on the parcel by the annual cost per ESD unit to arrive at the ESD assessment for the parcel

2. Multiplying the acreage of the parcel by the annual cost per acreage unit to arrive at the acreage assessment; and

3. Adding the ESD assessment to the acreage assessment to arrive at the total assessment for the parcel.

The allocation formula for Zone 3 can be expressed mathematically as:

Cost per ESD Unit = Fiscal Year Budget for ESD Unit Items in Zone / Total ESD Units in Zone Cost per Acre = Fiscal Year Budget for Acreage Items in Zone / Total Acreage in Zone Assessment per Parcel = (Cost per ESD x No. of ESD Units on Parcel) + (Cost per Acre x No. of Acres on Parcel) Although Section 22663 of the Streets and Highways Code typically requires that public property not be assessed, Article XIII, Section 4(a) of Proposition 218 requires that public property shall not be exempt from assessment if the property benefits from the facilities being maintained.

Zone 3 includes publicly owned property which is utilized for parks, creeks, open spaces, public rights-of-way, and easements. These properties serve to provide landscape, open space, and recreational benefits to the adjoining property.

Because these properties provide special benefits rather than receive special benefits they do not receive an annual assessment.

RECOMMENDATION
Adopt a Resolu1on: 1) amending the FY2024-25 Capital Budget and increasing the FY24-25 Budget from $13,791,725 to $16,353,725; 2) awarding a construc1on contract to O.C. Jones & Sons, Inc. in the amount of $12,116,149; 3) authorizing the City Manager to enter into an agreement with Consor North America, Inc. for Construc1on Management Services in an amount not to exceed $1,102,000; and 4) authorizing the Public Works Director to approve Contract Change Orders in an aggregate amount not to exceed the Construc1on Budget in conjunc1on with the Green Island Road Reconstruction and Widening Project (TR16-0700).

CONTACT
Erica Ahmann Smithies, P.E., Public Works Director/City Engineer Ron Ranada, P.E., Senior Civil Engineer

BACKGROUND & ANALYSIS
The Green Island Road Reconstruc1on and Widening Project (TR16-0700) (“Project”) consists of reconstruc1ng 1.9 miles of exis1ng roads, including Green Island Road (from Paoli Loop to Jim Oswalt Way), Jim Oswalt Way, MezzeEa Court, Commerce Boulevard (north of North Slough), and Hanna Drive. As part of the road project, the sec1on of Green Island Road from Commerce Boulevard to Paoli Loop will be widened to improve exis1ng, and provide new transporta1on facili1es, including three traffic lanes (two travel lanes and one center turn lane), and a dedicated Class I trail from Commerce Boulevard to Paoli Loop. The Project also includes replacement of approximately 1,800 linear feet of ten-inch diameter domes1c water main in Hanna Drive, along with associated services and appurtenances, which have aged beyond their service life.

The City solicited compe11ve bids for the Project on February 19, 2025. However, the adver1sed Project was modified to omit the Class I trail work because required Caltrans authoriza1ons for OBAG 3 funding for the trail were delayed. Hence, in order to not jeopardize EDA funding and not impact the Project's delivery schedule further, the trail work was omiEed. That said, staff is con1nuing to pursue the required OBAG 3 authoriza1ons with the intent of delivering the trail improvements either via change order to the proposed contract at hand, or separate bid and contract to follow as soon as possible aMer the comple1on of the road project. Thus, the current 1495
construc1on package at hand includes a Base Bid Schedule that encompasses the road reconstruc1on work and water main improvements (Engineer's Es1mate: $10,572,184), an Addi1ve Alterna1ve 1 Schedule that would provide for sidewalk on Commerce Boulevard (Engineer's Es1mate: $107,017)), and an Addi1ve Alterna1ve 2 Schedule that would provide for sidewalk on Hanna Drive (Engineer's Es1mate: $281,900). Selec1on of the low bid is to be based upon the Base Bid value only. The Addi1ve Alterna1ve items are op1onal for inclusion. On May 6, 2025, the following Base Bids were received and publicly read aloud:

Bidder Total Base Bid Amount
O.C. Jones & Sons, Inc. $11,456,224.00
Ghilotti Construction Company, Inc. $12,374,696.00
Bay Cities Paving and Grading, Inc. $12,395,721.53
Ghilotti Bros., Inc. $12,399,543.00
Argonaut Constructors $12,595,609.70
Granite Rock Company $13,500,338.30
McGuire and Hester $13,773,010.00
DeSilva Gates Construction, LLC $13,853,003.00
Granite Construction Company $14,216,079.60
Goodfellow Bros. California, LLC $14,450,952.00
Patriot Contracting, Inc. $15,746,480.00
The bid submiEed by O.C. Jones & Sons, Inc. (O.C. Jones) in the amount of $11,456,224.00 was the apparent low bid. Furthermore, O.C. Jones' total bid of $12,116,149.00, including Addi1ve Alterna1ves 1 & 2, was likewise the lowest amongst all corresponding bid totals. Staff has reviewed the apparent low bid and found it to be both responsive and responsible. Staff has verified the contractor's qualifica1ons including valid Class A license, DIR registra1on, and references, and found them to be sa1sfactory and acceptable. While the prices of the bid Items reflect reasonable and customary costs of comple1ng the work as compared to other recent bids, unit costs appear to be continuing to trend upwards. Hence, staff recommends the Council award a construc1on contract to O.C. Jones & Sons, Inc. in the amount of $12,116,149 in conjunc1on with the Green Island Road Reconstruc1on and Widening Project (TR16-0700). If approved, construc1on is likely to begin no sooner than early July due to the need to complete on-going required biological assessments prior to starting groundbreaking operations.

Addi1onally, at the start of Project design, the City had solicited proposals for Design and Construc1on Management Services for the Project, for which Consor North America, Inc. (Consor; formerly Quincy Engineering, Inc.) was ul1mately selected. However, the City elected to enter into an agreement for the Design services component only because of the an1cipated 1me that would elapse un1l the Construc1on Management services were needed, which would have likely rendered Consor’s proposal outdated. The City’s inten1on was to execute the agreement with Consor for construc1on phase services at a future date. Hence, staff recently requested an updated proposal for Construc1on Management services from Consor, and has received a scope of services and fee 1496
that staff has reviewed and found to be acceptable. Consor has previously provided the same services on the Project during the Rule 20 U1lity Undergrounding Project, and served the City well in delivering that work in a coopera1ve and responsive manner. Hence, staff recommends the Council authorize the City Manager to enter into an agreement with Consor North America, Inc. for construc1on management services in an amount not to exceed $1,102,000 in conjunc1on with the Green Island Road Reconstruction and Widening Project (TR16-0700).

COUNCIL PRIORITY PROGRAMS AND PROJECTS
Infrastructure: "Develop and maintain infrastructure resources to support sustainable growth."

FISCAL IMPACT
The total construc1on cost for the road and water system improvements (Base Bid), as well as the sidewalk improvements along Commerce Boulevard (Addi1ve Alternate 1) and Hanna Drive (Additive Alternate 2) which are optional for award, is estimated as follows:

Expense Items Amount
Construction $12,116,149
Construction Management & Inspection $1,102,000
Material Testing Services $90,000
Contingency (15%) $1,820,000
Total Construction Budget $15,128,149
The total Project Budget is currently $18,202,933. The FY24-25 Capital Budget provides for funding in the amount of $13,791,725. Current fund sources include TIF (Fund 320), Water Opera1ons (Fund 510), the Green Island CFD Special Tax (Fund 381), Department of Commerce - Economic Development Administration grant funds (Fund 240), and OBAG 3 grant funds (Fund 240).

Due to the higher than es1mated costs, the following Capital and Project Budget amendments are recommended to meet the funding shorSall, mainly via inclusion of qualifying u1lity funds which have thus far been excluded, or partially tapped as in the case of Water Ops:

Fund Number (Name) Current Amount Proposed Increase New Amount Fund 381 (CFD Tax) $6,655,369 $0 $6,655,369
Fund 240 (EDA Grant) $5,500,000 $0 $5,500,000
Fund 320 (TIF) $86,356 $0 $86,356
Fund 211 (Measure U) $0 $300,000 $300,000
Fund 510 (Water Ops) $550,000 $1,005,000 $1,555,000
Fund 540 (Wastewater
Ops)
$0 $72,000 $72,000
Fund 210 (Measure A) $0 $1,185,000 $1,185,000
1497
Fund 240 (OBAG 3
Grant)
$1,000,000 $0 $1,000,000
Total $13,791,725 $2,562,000 $16,353,725
Fund 211 (Measure U) has approximately $6.7 million in unrestricted net posi1on, sufficient to fund the needed increase.

Fund 510 (Water Opera1ons) has approximately $14.0 million in unrestricted net posi1on, sufficient to fund the needed increase.

Fund 540 (Wastewater Opera1ons) has approximately $5.5 million in unrestricted net posi1on, sufficient to fund the needed increase.

Fund 210 (Measure A) has approximately $5.5 million in unrestricted net posi1on, sufficient to fund the needed increase.

With the recommended Capital and Project Budget amendments in place, the Project will have sufficient funding for the current road construc1on scope. Hence, staff recommends the Council approve the recommended FY24-25 Capital and Project Budget Amendments.

As noted above regarding the deferral of the trail improvements, Fund 240 (OBAG 3 Grant) must be 'reserved' and are restricted to the Class I trail scope. The upcoming FY25-26 Capital Improvement Program will reflect the breaking out of the trail project.

ENVIRONMENTAL REVIEW
Pursuant to the California Environmental Quality Act (“CEQA”), an Ini1al Study/Mi1gated Nega1ve Declara1on (“IS/MND”), that includes a “Mi1ga1on Monitoring and Repor1ng Plan (“MMRP”), was prepared for the Project and circulated for 30 days star1ng on August 27, 2019. A No1ce of Intent ("NOI") to adopt a Mi1gated Nega1ve Declara1on (“MND”) was posted at the County Clerk in accordance with the CEQA requirements on August 27, 2019.

A public hearing for considera1on of the Project and its IS/MND was no1ced and held on October 1, 2019, before the City Council, which at that mee1ng determined 1) based upon the record that the Project will not have a significant effect upon the environment if the mi1ga1on measures listed in the MND and MMRP are implemented; 2) adopted the IS/MND for the Project; 3) adopted the MMRP for the Project, and 4) directed staff to file a No1ce of Determina1on for the Project consistent with the CEQA Guidelines. The IS/MND evaluated the separate ac1ons the City will take to complete the Project including the road work currently proposed.

ITEM NUMBER: 21.

TITLE
Fiscal Year 2025-26 Proposed Budget

RECOMMENDATION
Review and Discuss the Fiscal Year 2025-26 Proposed Budget.

BACKGROUND & ANALYSIS
The Fiscal Year (FY) 2025-26 Budget process kicked off in February. Finance Department staff is ac3vely developing the new budget in collabora3on with other City departments, the Assistant City Manager and the City Manager. The "Proposed Budget" was presented to the Finance Subcommi5ee on May 8, 2025. The "Final Budget" will be brought to Council on June 3, 2025 for adoption.

All Funds
The FY 2025-26 Proposed Budget for All Funds is approximately $144.1M. This amount represents an increase of approximately $8.8M (or 6%) from the FY 2024-25 Adopted Mid-Year Budget.

General Fund
The FY 2025-26 General Fund (GF) Proposed Budget is a balanced budget.

General Fund appropria3ons are approximately $32.7M. This amount represents an increase of $0.8M (or 3%) from the FY 2024-25 Adopted GF Budget.

Overall budget categories at their aggregate levels are shown in A5achment 1. Es3mated revenues and expenses (by fund) and projected ending fund balances are shown in Attachment 2.

General Fund Revenue
The FY 2024-25 Proposed GF Revenues total approximately $32.7M. Of that amount, property taxes are expected to increase 1.12% (to $15.3M). This increase reflects con3nued development ac3vity and the sale of new homes in 2024. There is lag between a home sale and realiza3on of new property tax. For example, home sales in 2024 are placed on the "January 2025 Property Tax Roll", and then become property tax revenue in FY 2025-26.
1503
Sales tax revenues are es3mated to decrease by $400k to $3.4M. This reduc3on reflects the closure of a top sales tax producer in February 2025. Other sales tax generated from exis3ng taxpayers are expected to remain flat, however new businesses opening later this year will add to these revenues.

Transient Occupancy Taxes (TOT) revenues are projected to increase by $279k to $1.9M. This increase reflects the opening of a new hotel (Home to Suites) in Fall 2025. TOT revenues from the exis3ng three proper3es are projected to remain flat. Addi3onal hotels (Hampton Inn and Watson Ranch Hotel) are expected to increase TOT revenues in outlying fiscal years.

Other taxes, such Franchise Fees ($1.2M), will con3nue to increase as American Canyon grows.

Most of these estimates are based on consultant analysis of economic performance.

Transfers-in for support services are projected to increase by $134k to $3.6M.

The remainder of the opera3onal revenues are budgeted conserva3vely but con3nue to grow moderately. Most of these es3mates are based on consultant analysis of economic performance and will be reassessed as more information becomes available.

General Fund Expenditures
The FY 2025-26 Proposed GF Expenditures total approximately $32.7M. Of that amount, personnel expenditures - including cost-of-living-adjustments for employees, step increases and reclassifica3ons for eligible employees, costs for employee re3rement benefits, and Other PostEmployment Benefits - are proposed to increase by $671,000 (or 7%) to $10.7M.

Of note, investment returns of the CalPERS pension system fell short of expecta3ons, resul3ng in increased retirement costs in FY2025-26.

The Proposed Budget includes the addi3on of (1) Administra3ve Clerk in the Public Works Department, (1) Accoun3ng Assistant in the Finance Department, and (1) Recrea3on Supervisor in the Parks and Recrea3on Department. The Public Works Department has recognized the need for an Administra3ve Clerk to manage du3es beyond the 3me and effort a part-3me office assistant can a5end to such as scanning, filing, preparing budget reports and assis3ng with the implementa3on of their asset management system. The Accoun3ng Assistant will help provide a consistent level of service in U3lity Billing as well as assist in the management of compliance with current laws. The Recrea3on Supervisor was iden3fied in an organiza3onal study as a 3er needed between the Recrea3on Coordinators and Recrea3on Manager to assist with day-to-day opera3ons so the Recrea3on Manager can focus on high level department needs and assist the Director more effectively.

The Proposed Budget also includes and addi3onal Maintenance Worker in Wastewater Collec3ons to aide in maintenance of our aging system and meet State requirements. This posi3on will replace 1504
part-time seasonal workers previously budgeted in this division.

Non-personnel expenditures include a $0.3M increase (or 3.61%) to the Sheriff Contract for Police Services, totaling $9.8M. The increase reflects costs salaries, benefits and insurance, but does not include any increased staffing.

Contribu3ons to the Internal Service Fund (ISF) for Building, Fleet, and Informa3on Technology (IT) are proposed to decrease 4.93%.

Fund Balance
GF Fund Balance is proposed to be $11.4M. Fund Balance will be comprised of $1.1M in restricted funds, with $8.2M reserved for con3ngency, and $2.1M Unassigned. The GF Con3ngency Reserve represents 25% of the proposed FY25-26 expenditures and will remain fully funded under the proposed budget.

Capital Improvement Program
The Capital Improvement Program (CIP) is primarily funded from restricted sources (such as Gas Tax, etc.), as well as Enterprise Funds, where appropriate.

Proposed CIP expenses total $43.2M. $37.0M of which for Civic Facility, Transporta3on, and Park Improvements, $3M for Water Projects, $3M for Wastewater Projects, and $0.2M for Recycled Water Projects. Notable expenses include $16.4M for Green Island Rd Reconstruc3on/Class I Trail Project and $8.1M for Rancho Del Mar Paving and Utility Improvements.

The CIP includes prior appropria3ons of $4.7M American Rescue Plan Act (ARPA) funding that will also be combined with other sources to provide previously approved improvements.

Water Fund
The FY 2025-26 Water Fund Proposed Budget has a projected deficit of $4M, with $5.7M a5ributed to one-time capital improvement costs.

Water Fund revenues are projected to be $18.7, with opera3ons revenues projected to increase by $3.7M to $15.7M as a result of increases to service rates in January 2026.

Water Fund expenditures are projected to be $22.7M. Expenses are projected to increase $7.8M to $22.7M primarily due to increased contribu3ons to capital improvement projects, Rancho Del Mar Paving Project and Green Island Road Reconstruc3on. There is also a new water improvement project of $2M for the Zone 5 Water Pump Station.

Capacity fee revenues are projected at $4.6M. Of note, many of the revenues projected in the Midyear 2024-25 Budget are not yet received and are now projected to be collected in FY2025-26. 1505
These revenues are collected from development projects and funds will be u3lized as the water system is expanded.

Wastewater Fund
The FY 2025-26 Wastewater Fund Proposed Budget is projected to have a deficit of $2.0M.

Wastewater Fund revenues are projected to increase by $6.6M to $11.3M, with operations revenues projected to increase $1.4M to $6.8M.

Wastewater Fund expenditures are projected to be $14.6M, an increase of $5.5M, primarily to fund capital projects, as the contribu3on to the CIP is $1.6M, and Wastewater capital improvements total $3.1M.

Also, as intended in the recently completed rate study, rates were not increased as much as needed in anticipation of drawing down reserves to the minimum target.

Capacity Fee revenues are projected at $2.6M, expenses are projected at $2.0M and include a $1.8M transfer to the CIP for the Broadway Sewer Rehabilitation-Crawford to Donaldson Project.

Recycled Water Fund
This newly created fund is now reported as a separate enterprise in our financial statements.

Recycled Water is a key aspect of our water supply system – and as such – it was appropriate to create a separate enterprise fund separate from the Water and Wastewater Enterprise Funds. The proposed fund revenue totals $0.6M and proposed expenditures total $1.4M.

FY 2023-24 was the first year that employees will be par3ally allocated to this fund which is reflected in the opera3onal costs for the fund. A rate study was recently completed, increasing the rates for recycled water to fund opera3onal costs, and as more customers join the system, more revenue will be available to help this enterprise become self-sufficient.

Internal Services Funds
The City has historically maintained four (4) internal service funds (ISF) to support city services:

Building Maintenance, Fleet, Informa3on Technology, and Legal Services. The FY 2023-24 Budget created four (4) new "Renova3on and Replacement Funds", as well as a new Pension Stabiliza3on Fund, bringing the total internal service funds to nine (9).

The goal of any ISF is to breakeven over 3me. Fund balances are allowable if there is a plan to use those resources to fulfill the objec3ve of the fund, such as informa3on technology replacement, fleet replacements or other asset replacements such as playground equipment, streets, or civic facilities.

Total ISF revenues are projected to decrease $0.6M to $4.1M. Total ISF expenditures are projected 1506
to increase by $1.0M to $5.2M.

Fund Balance in the Fleet ISF has been built to pay for the ouMiNng of two (2) police interceptor vehicles. The Building Maintenance ISF Fund Balance will also be drawn down to fund the City Hall Roof Improvement project. Fund Balance in the Parks Renova3on and Repair ISF is to be drawn down for the Veteran's Park Playground replacement.

Debt Service
The City maintains total debt of $9.1M as of June 30, 2024. This amount represents 6% of the City's All Funds amount. Annual debt service payments total $0.9M in FY 2025-26 across a number of funding sources, excluding non-financed long-term liabili3es such as compensated absences, claims and judgments, net pension liability, and other post-employment benefits.

Looking Towards the Future
Projected growth in American Canyon will increase our property tax base, which accounts for over half of the City’s discre3onary income. New residen3al, industrial and commercial development will also likely increase sales tax revenues to help pay for City services as more residents shop and dine in town and more businesses open up. There are also three (3) proposed new hotels, with one currently under construc3on, that would supplement TOT revenues and a new fast casual restaurant, which is expected to open in Summer 2025.

The City has fully recovered from the pandemic lows and with new developments underway the city has a mix of healthy future revenue growth projec3ons. Our projec3ons for Fiscal Year 2025-26 con3nue to evolve with con3nued infla3onary pressures in mind, we have begun to see minimal to no growth in many sales tax categories and a slowdown in exis3ng home sales as inventory con3nues to be limited. New homes con3nue to sell and add to the City's property tax base, although persistently high interest rates have tempered demand somewhat as American Canyon continues to be a desirable place to live and remains the most affordable area in the County.

Staff has also developed a 5-Year forecast providing analysis on projected revenues, employee benefits, pension costs and non-personnel expense trends.

Next Steps
The Fiscal Year 2025-26 Final Budget will incorporate any changes from Council tonight and brought forward on June 4, 2024 for adoption.
