Alliant Insurance Services Inc.• 18100 Von Karman Avenue• Irvine, CA• 92612 Introduction:

The City of Anderson aims to provide a working environment that minimizes the potential for workplace violence and other safety/security risks. Violence in the workplace poses a significant threat to the safety and wellbeing of our employees and the general public. It is the responsibility of all employees to help minimize workplace violence. This policy establishes procedures to minimize the threat of violence in the workplace and provides guidelines for responding promptly and effectively to workplace violence.

Note: The following employees are not subiect to this Plan:
• Employees teleworking from a location of the employee's choice, not under the control of The City of Anderson (e.g., employees working from their home). • Employees working from a City of Anderson office that has Jess than 10 other employees.

Purpose:

The purpose of this plan is to:
• Identify the names and job titles of the persons responsible for the implementation and maintenance of the Workplace Violence Prevention Program. • Highlight how employees can report violent incidents, threats, or other workplace violence concerns, and how to respond to reports.
• Reinforce against unlawful retaliation for reporting, in good faith, violent incidents, threats, or other workplace violence concerns, and participating in any related investigations of such reports.
• Outline procedures to respond to actual or potential workplace violence emergencies.
• Detail training requirements about this plan, including the frequency of training. • Outline procedures to identify and evaluate workplace violence hazards. • Communicate post-incident response and investigation processes.

Definitions:

Workplace violence refers to any "act of violence or threat of violence that occurs in a place of employment." It includes, regardless of whether an employee sustains an injury, the threat or use of physical force against an employee that results in or is likely to result in injury, trauma, or stress, as well as incidents involving a threat or use of a firearm or other dangerous weapon.

A "threat of violence" means any verbal or written statement, including, but not limited to, texts, electronic messages, social media messages, or other online posts, or any behavior or physical conduct that conveys an intent, or that is reasonably perceived to convey an intent to cause physical harm or to place someone in fear of physical harm, and that serves no legitimate purpose.

There are four common types of workplace violence:
3 Alliant Insurance Services Inc. • 18100 Von Karman Avenue• Irvine, CA• 92612 • Type 1 Violence: Workplace violence committed by a person who has no legitimate business at the worksite, including violent acts by anyone who enters the workplace or approaches workers with the intent to commit a crime. • Type 2 Violence: Workplace violence directed at employees by customers, clients, patients, students, inmates, or visitors.
• Type 3 Violence: Workplace violence against an employee by a present or former employee, supervisor, or manager.
• Type 4 Violence: Workplace violence committed in the workplace by a person who does not work there but has or is known to have had a personal relationship with an employee.

Workplace violence does not include lawful acts of self-defense or defense of others.

Roles and Responsibilities:

The Safety Committee has the authority and responsibility for implementing and maintaining the provisions of this WVPP program for the City of Anderson.

Note: If there are multiple persons responsible for the plan, their roles should be clearly described.

Honorable Mayor and Members of the Anderson City Council Joey Forseth4 Deshais, City Manager
From: Adam Whelen, Director of Public Works
Date: July 2, 2024
!SUBJECT
Zone Amendment (ZA) 24-02 to update Chapter 17.44 - Comprehensive Sign Ordinance.

I RECOMMENDATION
Enact Ordinance No 860 (second reading) amending Chapter 17.44 of the Anderson Municipal Code regarding Sign Ordinance as introduced on June 18, 2024 (first reading). !FISCAL IMPACT
There is no fiscal impact.

I DISCUSSION and BACKGROUND
The City's Comprehensive Sign Ordinance, last updated in 1987 under Municipal Code Section 17.44, is crucial in regulating the size, height, design, and maintenance of all signs and sign structures. This ordinance, designed to safeguard life, health, property, and public welfare, enhance the character of neighborhoods and business areas, and ensure fair treatment of sign users, is now due for an update to reflect the changing times and technological advancements.

Significant advancements have been made in sign technology, urban design, and city planning principles since 1987. Consequently, the current ordinance needs updating to ITEM 6.8 PAGE1 7/2/2024
reflect modern practices and technological advancements while ensuring clarity in interpretation. The goal is to balance commercial interests with community aesthetics and safety. The proposed ordinance will effectively address these challenges.

The proposed update to Chapter 17.44 of the City of Anderson's Comprehensive Sign Ordinance is essential to address evolving technology and marketing challenges, ensure legal compliance, and promote the well-being and aesthetic quality of the community. The city aims to balance commercial interests, public safety, and community aesthetics by modernizing sign regulations while facilitating effective communication and signage practices. These updates also aim to streamline the sign-permitting process, reducing the need for many businesses to apply for a Use Permit to comply with state regulations. For instance, California state requirements mandate that gas stations have ground-mounted price signs displaying all fuel grades and payment methods (cash/credit), which our current code only allows with a Use Permit. This streamlining process will save businesses money and conserve staff time.

The Planning Commission, after careful consideration and review, has approved and adopted P.C. Resolution No. 24-07. This resolution, which requires the inclusion of a matrix and lighting plan if applicable for sign lighting as specified in AMC 17.44.040(8) (General Provisions, Illumination), is a significant step towards increasing customer awareness of light pollution and establishing building standards that prevent lighting from encroaching onto adjacent properties. This matrix will also serve as a guideline for staff reviewing such projects, ensuring a fair and consistent approach.

ENVIRONMENTAL DETERMINATION:

The City of Anderson finds that this Ordinance is not a "project" according to the definition outlined in the California Environmental Quality Act ("CEQA"), and, pursuant to CEQA Guidelines sections 15060(c)(2) (the activity will not result in a direct or reasonably foreseeable indirect physical change in the environment) and 15061(b)(3) (there is no possibility the activity in question may have a significant effect on the environment), the adoption of this ordinance is therefore not subject to the provisions requiring environmental review.

Staff recommends Council
1) Discuss the letter of support Vice Mayor Hunt wrote commending the Youth Options Shasta Peer Court.
2) Also approve or deny the usage of City letterhead for Vice Mayor Hunt's letter.

I FISCAL IMPACT
None.

I DISCUSSION and BACKGROUND
Vice Mayor Melissa Hunt was approached by the Youth Engagement Coordinator of Youth Options Shasta, Jim Berry. Due to Vice Mayor Hunt's educational background, Mr. Berry requested a letter of support to help assist in securing funding, grants, and interest in Youth Options Shasta and the Peer Court Program.

ITEM 8.1 PAGE1 7/2/2024
On the June 4, 2024, City Council meeting, Vice Mayor Hunt requested the Council add this as a future agenda item to discuss and be granted permission for the letter to be on City letterhead. !ATTACHMENT

ITEM 8.1 PAGE2 7/2/2024
July 2, 2024
Open Letter to the Community, Program Donors, and All involved in Shasta Youth Options Peer Court
I wanted to thank and commend all involved that participate in the Peer Court Program of Shasta County as this is a group effort of the community to bring positive options and restorative justice to the youngest of our citizens.

Judges volunteer their time to preside over the hearings. Fellow students volunteer their time to review the infractions and help peers learn from their lapse in judgement. In turn, these jurors teach their fellow peers how to be better community members in a safe and trusting environment. Local Elected officials, business owners, and law enforcement representatives sit on the Board for Youth Options to help determine their direction and goals. Parents, grandparents, or family representatives/guardians are present in court to promise to support the youth as they follow through on the suggested recompense. The Shasta County Juvenile Probation Department works hand in hand with Shasta Youth Options to feed youth into this valuable diversion program. And, of course, the Youth Options Peer Court Program leaders are there to guide all involved through the process. It really is a group or community effort.

I was able to visit the Peer Court program in the Spring of 2024 and I was so impressed with the program. I was impressed with the group effort that so many were involved in to make this happen. I was impressed by the young people that served on the jury. Their professionalism in dealing with fellow youth, who made decisions within the community that were not beneficial to anyone involved, was awe-inspiring. Also impressive were the jury member's parents that were present in the audience because they had to drive their own child down to the courthouse to participate in the program! City Council

This is a program that needs to be duplicated iri all our counties for the sake of future generations. It requires offenders to take responsibility and be accountable for their actions. Job well done! I so encourage anyone who has not seen the program in action to visit a Peer Court in Shasta County. Thank you for all you do for our youth! Sincerely,

Consider potential allocation of funding for revenue guarantee supporting the Redding to Denver air service.

I RECOMMENDATION
The City Manager recommends the City Council discuss a request from the City of Redding to commit funding to support the creation of an airline route with United Airlines connecting Redding to Denver.

I FISCAL IMPACT
The fiscal impact will be a one-time contribution of the amount determined by the Council. These funds would come from the general fund reserves.

I DISCUSSION and BACKGROUND
This item was brought before the Council on June 4, 2024, to allocate funding. There were two motions made that both ended up being 2-2 votes, with the Council's direction being to bring this agenda item back once we have adopted the 2024-25 Fiscal Year budget.

The Redding Regional Airport (RDD) is a full-service airport offering direct flights to San Francisco (SFO), Los Angeles (LAX), Burbank (BUR), and Seattle (SEA). A recent addition is the Avelo Airlines Burbank Flight, providing direct service starting as low as $158.00 roundtrip, this is considered affordable for flights. Currently, RDD is progressing with its Airport Master Plan and is in the process of securing a $30 million Federal Aviation Administration Airport ITEM 8.3 PAGE1 7/2/2024
Improvement Grant for a runway rehabilitation project anticipated to commence in 2025. The airport has experienced significant growth in services, benefiting the entire region.

United Airlines has long sought an eastbound direct flight to Denver from RDD, and recent talks indicate that a deal is near. United is requesting a $2M revenue guarantee, a standard practice for non-hub airports. The City of Redding is actively engaging with local entities and business partners to bridge this funding gap. So far, the city has secured a $760,000 FAA grant and allocated over $100,000 in additional city funding. The city is aiming to raise $1M from various sources (such as Dignity Health, SPI, Bethel, etc.). It also hopes for contributions from government agencies, similar to the support provided in 2018 when the city offered a $25,000 revenue guarantee for the Los Angeles (LAX) flight, which remains operational today. On May 21, 2024, the Shasta County Board of Supervisors ($100,000) and the City of Shasta Lake ($25,000) both voted to allocate funding towards the revenue guarantee.

The economic impact of RDD on the region is substantial, serving commercial passengers and various aviation sectors including air ambulance services, US Forest Service operations, Cal Fire support, business aviation, and general aviation. The airport's master plan estimates that RDD contributes to over 1,300 jobs and $72 million in annual payroll. Passenger numbers at RDD have grown significantly, with a total of 201,780 passengers (enplanements doubled) in 2022 compared to 61,472 in 2012, reflecting a significant increase in regional visitation.

Email Request from City of Redding
ITEM 8.3 PAGE2 7/2/2024
Air Service Revenue Guarantee Funding
Tippin, Barry <[email protected]>

To:David Rickert <[email protected]> ;Joey Forseth <[email protected]> ;Jessacalugo <[email protected] >
Cc:Bade. Steve <[email protected]>
Good Afternoon Dave/ Jess/ Joey:

You may be aware that we are very close to landing an eastbound flight to Denver via United. As part of the potential deal, United is requesting/requiring a revenue guarantee of $2 million (very common in the industry for non-hub airports}. I am writing to see it your respective entities may be willing to participate in the funding. To date. the City has received a grant from FAA for $750,000 and identified additional City funding just over $100,000. Therefore, we are looking for about $1 million from many entities in the community (Bethel. SPI, Dignity etc.}.

The last time we did this was for the United LA bound flight. For that effort, Shasta County provided $50,000 and Shasta Lake contributed $25,000 and Anderson contributed $25,000.

We are trying to complete this effort (at least with verbal commitment) this month so any information you can provide in May would be very. very helpful. Steve Bade. copied here, can provide you much more info if needed.

Thanks for your consideration.
