RE: DISCUSSION AND APPROVE RESOLUTION 24-40 SUPPORTING THE HIGHWAY 4
REGIONAL WATER SUPPLY PARTNERSHIP
RECOMMENDATION:
Discussion and direction of the Highway 4 Regional Water Supply Partnership and adopting Resolution 24-40 Supporting the Highway 4 Regional Water Supply Partnership.
STRATEGIC PLAN ALIGNMENT:
Conservation & Open Space Ensure adequate water quality and quantity for the residents of and visitors to the city
Public Safety Facilitate the provision of an adequate supply of water, and essential utilities and communications for city residents during emergency situations.
BACKGROUND:
The Highway 4 Regional Water Supply partnership is a collaborative effort between the Union Public Utility District, City of Angels Camp, Calaveras County Water District, and Utica Water and Power Authority. With a shared commitment to the long-term sustainability of the Highway 4 community's water supply, emergency preparedness and response, and the protection of our existing water rights, these entities work together to prioritize planning and implement solutions. This partnership, which has spanned many decades, underscores the importance of cooperation in addressing the challenges of water management and ensuring the resilience of local water resources.
DISCUSSION:
The City of Angels City Council recognizes the critical importance of ensuring a reliable and sustainable water supply, seamless emergency response, and protection of the limited water rights that each of us holds. A partnership is proposed with neighboring agencies to conduct a comprehensive Regional Water Supply Study. This study aims to evaluate existing water sources, enhance backup water supplies, improve operational efficiency, and strengthen emergency response plans. 17 Section 10, Item A.
CITY HALL
CITY OF ANGELS PO Box 667, 200 Monte Verda St. Suite B, Angels Camp, CA 95222 P: (209) 736-2181 Home of the Jumping Frog - Angelscamp.gov
It has been over twenty years since the Darby Fire, and to this day, all four jurisdictions still have only one water supply. Planning ahead for resiliency would give each of us protection in in the event of an emergency or disruption now and into the future.
This partnership also helps protect the water rights held to ensure that it is clearly documented that the allocations are not just aligned with each of the purveyor’s water customers, but addresses backup water supply to partners, aids in building and supporting the economic heart of Calaveras County and ensures that growth across the entire community is contemplated.
Lastly, with ongoing state regulation, the economic impacts to each of us is becoming more impactful on affordability to our customers. Where backup supply options and emergency response measures can be a shared cost and grant funded, that in turn mitigates the cost increases from hitting the operational budgets.
Proposed Outcomes:
1. Evaluation of Existing Water Sources and Infrastructure:
x Conducting a thorough assessment of current water sources and infrastructure within each service area is essential.
x Identifying potential options to connect to redundant backup water supplies will enhance reliability.
x Determining ways to optimize operations and improve efficiency within the district is crucial for sustainable water management.
x Look for new supply sources.
2. Finding Cost Savings and Providing Services More Efficiently:
x Investigating opportunities to reduce operational costs while maintaining or enhancing water reliability and service is a key objective.
x Exploring and potentially implementing new technologies or practices to streamline water delivery and usage can lead to cost savings and improved service.
3. Identifying Gaps in Emergency Response Plans:
x Reviewing existing emergency response plans to determine gaps or areas for improvement is necessary.
18 Section 10, Item A.
CITY HALL
CITY OF ANGELS PO Box 667, 200 Monte Verda St. Suite B, Angels Camp, CA 95222 P: (209) 736-2181 Home of the Jumping Frog - Angelscamp.gov
x Preparing for potential water supply interruptions due to drought, climate change, or major infrastructure failures is critical.
x Formulating strategic actions to address these gaps ensures rapid and effective response in emergencies, safeguarding the community's water supply.
Conclusion:
It is recommended that the City of Angels City Council support the proposed multi-agency collaboration along Highway 4 to achieve the outlined goals. By working together, sharing resources, and leveraging expertise, the participating agencies can enhance regional water reliability and resilience, ultimately benefiting all stakeholders.
To date, the Calaveras County Water District Board unanimously approved a resolution on April 24th. The Union Public Utility District unanimously approved a resolution on April 24th. The Utica Water and Power Authority has it on their agenda for May 30th.
FINANCIAL IMPACT:
There are currently no budgeted costs associated with this effort. Over the course of future meetings, an estimated cost for a comprehensive plan will be developed, along with funding strategies and recommendations.

TO: City of Angels City Council
FROM: Amy Augustine, AICP – City Planner
RE: Rural Recreation and Tourism Program - Utica Park Lightner Mine Expansion Project Update RECOMMENDATION:
Acknowledge and accept updates.
STRATEGIC PLAN ALIGNMENT:
A4: Economic Development: Promote a wide variety of economic opportunities consistent with the city's social, cultural, environmental, and aesthetic resources. The proposed Rural Recreation and Tourism grant park project is intended to increase tourism through park enhancements including a stage, historical (cultural) interpretation trail, and improved pavilion for outdoor events. A new children’s playground, adult/teen exercise equipment, bocce courts, hardcourts, improved pavilion and stage are intended to encourage social interactions with local theatre productions, local musical performances, movies in the park and enhanced outdoor spaces for other local events.
A5: Economic Development: Maintain and enhance the city's economic vitality while conserving the city's social, cultural, environmental, and aesthetic resources. See above.
B2 Community Identity: Design new development to be compatible with the natural, scenic, and cultural resources and rural character of Angels Camp. The Community Stakeholders Design Committee will assist with park design to ensure compatibility with cultural resources and rural character.
C7: Public Facilities and Services: Maintain or increase the levels of service currently available within Angels Camp for park facilities and infrastructure. The project will increase the size of Utica Park by 3.8± acres, add or improve numerous park amenities, and upgrade and expand infrastructure increasing the level of park facilities available to all age groups and ability levels for residents and visitors.
BACKGROUND:
Consistent with direction from the City Council, attached is an update on the above-captioned project through May 15, 2024.
Design and Build Contract Process
Boyer Construction was selected to design and build the project. A design and build contract is unlike a constructiononly contract. Construction-only contracts generally are used to construct a new road, widen an existing road, construct a new bridge, construct a new building. Construction-only contracts are awarded after construction documents are complete (i.e., detailed construction drawings and building plans) and all necessary permits have been reviewed and are issued (e.g., building permits, grading permits). At that point, a Notice to Proceed “NTP” is normally issued under a construction-only contract. The Utica Park/Lightner Mine Expansion Project is NOT one of those projects. It is a design and build project.
As a design and build contract, the park renovation requires a design phase first, followed by the creation of construction documents, followed by construction. As you know, finalizing a site plan for this project was contingent upon completing geotechnical evaluations. The City approved a site plan April 16, 2024. This was followed by finalizing a survey to ensure the approved site plan could move forward. This was accomplished April 30, 2024. 29 Section 10, Item B.
COMMUNITY AND ECONOMIC DEVELOPMENT
CITY OF ANGELS PO Box 667, 200 Monte Verda St. Suite B, Angels Camp, CA 95222 P: (209) 736-1346 Boyer has now entered the official “Design” phase of the project. Therefore, a notice to proceed was issued and became effective on May 14, 2024, for 307 work days.
Boyer is currently creating construction documents. These construction documents include grading plans, curbing for the playground, underground/utility plans, building plans for the pavilion, building plans for the bocce courts, building plans for the stage, landscaping plans, etc.
As previously described, park construction will be phased. This means park construction will begin before 100% of all park construction documents are completed. Construction will be consecutive. Construction for each element will commence upon completion of plans for that park element.
Because the site plan for the playground was approved months ago, playground construction requires relatively minimal grading, and all park equipment was ordered in April with an expectation of delivery 12 weeks later (i.e., July). Boyer states that ground preparation for the playground will begin in June and be ready to “turn over” to the SPEC Playground contractors to install playground structures upon equipment arrival in July.
While playground construction is being completed, plans for the next targeted park amenity will be completed so that construction on the next park element can begin…and so on and so on and so on until the park is completed. Following playground construction, it is anticipated, subject to change, that underground work for utilities in the existing park will occur followed by installing the new bathrooms.
Activity summary:
x June 4, 2024, at 11 a.m. has been set for a ground-breaking ceremony at Utica Park. In addition to the many people who have been involved in getting the park to this point, it is anticipated that family members associated with memorials in the park also will be invited to the event as well as past elected officials and staff that were involved in park planning and funding.
x Before ground-breaking occurs in earnest, staff and Boyer will hold a pre-construction meeting with those residents bordering the park. The intent is to ensure that Boyer is aware of their needs, neighbors have met the on-site project manager face-to-face and know how to contact him immediately to address their concerns. x Geo-con submitted a task order to design mine shaft closures and to do on-site monitoring while shafts are closed.
x Staff presented the formal site plan for the park at the fair and took input on the proposed location for the Mark Twain Statue.
x The monument restoration firm rehabilitating the Mark Twain Statue is Lanzini and Sons (https://lanziniandsons.com/) . Their final quote has been received by Boyer with a contract pending. Lanzini is ready to begin work immediately upon the relocation of the statue to the museum. Staff is working with Dave Sutton to relocate the statue to the Angels Camp Museum. A date for the temporary move has not yet been set, but it is anticipated near the end of May. Residents and visitors will be able to watch the refurbishing outside the Carriage House at the museum. The statue base will remain in the park during refurbishing. Based on the children’s playground design and location it is expected that the statue will be relocated north of its current location. The City plans to provide a QR scan code at the museum rehabilitation location to gather public input on preference for precisely where Mark Twain will be most visible in the park. 30 Section 10, Item B.
COMMUNITY AND ECONOMIC DEVELOPMENT
CITY OF ANGELS PO Box 667, 200 Monte Verda St. Suite B, Angels Camp, CA 95222 P: (209) 736-1346 x Staff met with PG&E May 3, 2024, and walked the park site to discuss PG&E’s planned donation of trees for landscaping. The local landscape designer was unavailable. An alternate licensed landscape architect is being hired by Boyer.
x The Community Park Planning Committee met 5/15/24 to discuss the ground-breaking ceremony, future uses of the existing cement slab and discuss the tiles on the existing bathroom (the outside of the existing bathrooms are being made to match the new bathroom, the tiles can either be retained in place, or preserved and relocated elsewhere in the park. Tiles will NOT be removed from the park or destroyed). x Refinements to the conceptual site plan approved by the City Council at its April 16, 2024, were refined on April 30, 3024 in response to the final survey completed in April. x Playground equipment has been ordered. A walk-through with the playground consultant to refine playground grading limits occurred on May 2, 2024.
x The park’s Constant Contact e-mail notification database created for persons interested in park updates, newsletters, status reports includes 197 individuals. Please send an e-mail to [email protected] with a subject line “Utica Park” to receive notifications.
x Wood for the park benches from the walnut trees is at the mill, being milled and dried. Upon completion, the milled wood will be converted into benches.
x Parties interested in sponsoring a memorial tree or a memorial bench are encouraged to submit their name to [email protected]. To date, there are six individuals expressing interest. Signing up does not commit individuals to a purchase. Interested persons will be notified once costs are determined. x Staff is requesting that anyone with a brand from a local ranch contact [email protected]. The city would like to incorporate local brands into one or more of the benches being constructed for the park. Staff has three sign-ups for local brands and has reached out to the Cattleman’s Association (Nicolas Valente) and Farm Bureau (Toni Ann Fischer) for additional interest.
x The interpretive sign committee met April 30, 2024. The Committee is editing content and selecting photos for 8 interpretive signs. Committee members are Judith Marvin (historian), Tad Folendorf (historian), James G.
Respess, Ph.D. (graphic design), Amy Augustine, Rebecca Callen. Interpretive sign language for the Mother Lode Belt, Lightner Mine, Utica Mine, persons associated with the mines, and Nationalities represented in the has been drafted. Overview of a working mine, and supplemental information related to Mark Twain is pending. QR codes are also proposed for various locations and on interpretive signs to provide additional information. The concept sign design was presented to the Community Stakeholders Design Committee 3/20/24. Signage will be brought back to the Stakeholders Design Committee in May (tentatively May 28th). x Monuments, Dedications, and Relocations. Staff has met with all individuals or organizations associated with each monument to ensure they are handled properly. Surviving relatives of fallen soldiers on the veteran’s memorial plaque have been contacted individually and their input will be followed for any potential relocation and rededication. Boyer is aware of all restrictions related to moving and conserving park monuments. x The “gateway” monumentation (mining equipment) near Napa was reviewed by the City of Angels Planning Commission. The Planning Commission approved relocating the equipment. Interpretive signage for the equipment will be added at its new location.

DATE: May 21, 2024
TO: City of Angels City Council
FROM: Amy Augustine, AICP – City Planner
RE: Resolution 24-44 Approving Task Order #4 for GeoCon for $29,380 for design and monitoring remediation of mine shafts and mine features at the Utica Park/Lightner Mine and authorizing the City Administrator to execute all applicable documents.
RECOMMENDATION
Adopt Resolution No. 24-44.
STRATEGIC PLAN IMPLEMENTATION
A3 Conservation and Open Space Protect the health and safety of people and property in the city from natural and man-made hazards. The proposed geotechnical investigation will ensure that the new park will be safe for the community relative to man-made (mining) hazards.
C7 Public Facilities & Services Maintain or increase the levels of service currently available within Angels Camp for park facilities and infrastructure. The proposed actions will facilitate new park construction thereby increasing the levels of service for park facilities in the City.
BACKGROUND, ANALYSIS AND FINDINGS
GeoCon was hired to perform a preliminary analysis of the geotechnical conditions of the Lightner Mine (Utica Park expansion). Based on that analysis, focused areas were identified for on-site drilling and geotechnical investigation to determine where and how project foundations can be constructed on site. At the request of the project engineer and design firm, a subsequent evaluation was performed for the existing Utica Park parcel. Based on that analysis, focused areas were identified for on-site drilling and geotechnical investigation to determine where and how project foundations can be constructed on site.
Based on all geotechnical evaluations and testing, the following five tasks are recommended by GeoCon:

COMMUNITY DEVELOPMENT
CITY OF ANGELS PO Box 667, 200 Monte Verda St. Suite B, Angels Camp, CA 95222 P: (209) 736-1346 Resolution 24-44 Geotechnical Study - 2
The City Administrator recommends that the Utica North Shaft Portal, where the existing slab exists in Utica Park, not be included in the remediation efforts as no new structures and only minimal changes to that portion of the park are anticipated. Therefore, only four of these tasks are proposed for completion.
In response to the findings of all studies, GeoCon has proposed the following budget for task order #4 for design work for capping the mine shafts, reviewing slab design by Land and Structure (i.e., Boyer) and to monitor and approve all on-site closures. Additional costs for earth work, materials and equipment from Boyer are forthcoming and will be discussed separately with Council.
To avoid project delays and allow for Boyer to provide the Council with valid cost estimates for the future work, staff has authorized GeoCon to proceed with the physical closure design costs of $2,165.00 The preceding costs are inn addition to the GeoCon costs previously approved by the City Council as follows:
Original Agreement – Preliminary Evaluation of the Expansion Parcel............................... $4,900 CO No. 1 – Design-Level Investigation of the Expansion Parcel......................................... $30,670 CO No. 2 – Preliminary Evaluation of the Park Parcel .......................................................... $4,800 CO No. 3 – Design-Level Investigation of the Park Parcel (current proposal) .................... $20,023 $60,393.
Grand total costs for GeoCon, with approval of Task Order #4 for $29,380 will be: $89,773.00.
As noted, additional costs for mine closure related to earth work, materials, and slab design by Land and Structure will be presented as a separate item to the City Council to allow Council to compare the costs/benefits of fencing versus physical closure of four mine features. Therefore, it is possible that all costs associated with this task order may not occur. Staff is including the entire scope of work at this time for expediency.
FISCAL ANALYSIS
$29,380 funding is from the $3,000,000 Rural Recreation and Tourism Grant awarded to the City.
Alternatively, some of the AARPA supplemental funding could be used.

Subject: PROPOSAL FOR MINE OPENING PHYSICAL CLOSURE DESIGN,
PLAN REVIEW, AND CONSTRUCTION SERVICES
UTICA PARK EXPANSION
ANGELS CAMP, CALIFORNIA
Ms. Augustine and Ms. Callen:
On behalf of the City of Angles Camp (the City), Geocon Consultants, Inc. (Geocon) proposes to provide physical closure design for two abandoned mine openings at the Utica Park Expansion Project. In addition, we propose to review the improvement plans for conformance with our geotechnical recommendations and perform construction observation and materials testing for the park improvements, which are to be performed by Boyer Construction under contract with the City. This proposal serves as Change Order No. 4 to our agreement with the City dated October 3, 2023.
BACKGROUND
The Utica Park Expansion Project includes the existing 2.63-acre Utica Park designated as Calaveras County assessor’s parcel number (APN) 060-006-008 and a 3.82-acre expansion parcel designated as APN 060-006-006 adjoining the park parcel to the northwest. The park parcel and the expansion parcel (collectively, the site) are southwest of State Route 49 and north of Sam’s Way in Angels Camp, California.
We performed a geotechnical investigation for the project and presented the findings and recommendations in our Geotechnical Engineering Report, Utica Park Expansion Project, Angles Camp, California (Geocon, March 27, 2024). The report describes mine openings identified during our investigation. The following table lists the identified mine openings, the proposed mitigation measures, and the approximate dimensions. Feature locations are depicted on Figures 5 and 6 of our report.

39 Section 10, Item C.
Geocon Proposal No. SA-24-0867-C-GT - 2 - May 2, 2024
Based on the findings of our investigation and our previous discussions with you, we understand that the mine openings are to be mitigated as follows:
1. Surface openings will be capped or plugged (except for the New Lightner Shaft, which we understand will be fenced to prevent access).
a. We will design concrete plugs for the raise portal and vertical shaft portal as truncated, inverted cones that are supported by annular bedrock on all sides of the mine opening. b. A structural engineer retained by the City or Boyer Construction will design reinforced concrete slabs to cover the Old Lightner Shaft Portal and the Utica North Shaft Portal. The slabs should be designed to span a minimum circular area of 15 feet in diameter. This will reduce potential physical hazards associated with ground settlement but will not necessarily eliminate the effects of future settlement.
2. A licensed surveyor should be retained by the City or Boyer Construction to survey the locations of the mine openings and the caps and plugs. The surveyed locations should be recorded with the property records along with the physical closure designs and as-built construction documents for future reference.
3. A licensed surveyor should be retained by the City or Boyer Construction to survey the locations of the geotechnical constraints related to deep, backfilled mine excavations, as depicted on Figure 6 of our report. The surveyed locations should be recorded with the property records to identify that these locations may experience future settlement of the ground surface if the deep backfill materials continue to consolidate.
4. Near-surface mine features that are not physically closed (such as the New Lightner Shaft) should be surveyed, recorded, and appropriately protected to restrict public access.
As the Geotechnical Engineer of Record, we should be retained to perform the following construction-phase services:
x review the foundation and grading plans prior to final design submittal; x construction observation and testing during the physical closures, earthwork grading, and foundation construction; and
x observation of subsurface conditions at the locations of ground surface settlement observed in February 2024 as described in Section 3.4 and Figure 5 of our report.
PURPOSE
The purpose of our physical closure design is to provide engineered details for permitting and physical closure of the raise portal and vertical shaft portal. We assume that the reinforced slabs will be designed by a structural engineer and the surveying will be performed by a licensed surveyor under contract with the City or Boyer Construction. The purposes of our construction-phase services are:
x to verify that our geotechnical recommendations have been incorporated into the project plans and evaluate whether additional analysis and/or recommendations are required; x to confirm that field conditions encountered during site development are similar to those anticipated during design and to verify that the work is performed in accordance with our recommendations; and
x to observe subsurface conditions at the locations of ground surface settlement observed in February 2024 and to evaluate wither additional analysis and/or recommendations are required. 40 Section 10, Item C.
Geocon Proposal No. SA-24-0867-C-GT - 3 - May 2, 2024
SCOPE OF SERVICES
Task A – Physical Closure Design
We will provide a design for concrete plugs to be constructed at the raise portal and vertical shaft portal identified during our geotechnical investigation. The plugs will be designed as truncated, inverted cones that are supported by annular bedrock on all sides of the mine opening. We will depict the plugs in plan and cross section with materials specifications, signed and stamped by a licensed professional engineer.
We understand that Boyer Construction will use the plans for permitting and construction.
Task B – Plan Review/Consultation
We will review the foundation and grading plans prepared by the design team prior to final design submittal to assess whether our recommendations have been properly implemented and evaluate whether additional analysis and/or recommendations are required.
Task C – Construction Services
We will perform construction observation and testing during the physical closures, earthwork grading, and foundation construction. We anticipate that the testing and observation will require:
x One day of engineering oversight for excavation of the raise portal and vertical shaft portal; x Two days of testing and observation during placement of the concrete plugs; x Two days of testing and observation during placement of steel reinforcement and concrete for the slabs (to be designed by others);
x One day of engineering oversight during exploratory trenching at the locations of ground settlement observed in February 2024; and
x Six days of testing and observation during earthwork grading and foundation construction.
FEE AND SCHEDULE
We will perform the physical closure design, plan review, and construction services on a time-andmaterials basis according to our 2024 fee schedule. Our fees are estimated below, and details are presented in the attached Fee Estimate Worksheet.

TO: City Council
FROM: Caytlyn Schaner, Deputy City Clerk and Amy Augustine, City Planner RE: Resolution of Intent 24-42 Recommending to the City Council the Proposal to Change the Start Time for Planning Commission Meetings
RECOMMENDATION:
It is recommended that Planning Commission approve Resolution No. 24-42 changing the start time for Planning Commission meetings from 6:00pm to 5:00pm, effective next month.
BACKGROUND AND DISCUSSION:
The current start time of 6:00pm for our Planning Commission meeting has been in place for several years.
The Planning Commission has considered changing start times in the past. Previously, meetings were changed in the fall to an earlier hour to avoid late night traveling during storms and to shorten the workday for those completing full workdays prior to meetings.
Changing the meeting time could help reduce staff costs (staff currently adds 1.5 hours between the end of the workday and start of the meetings) and encourage residents to participate, particularly those with family or work commitments who wish to participate fully in these important civic discussions.
FINANCIAL IMPACT:
None.

RE: 1) RESOLUTION 24-43 TO SUBMIT AN APPLICATION TO THE CALIFORNIA NATURAL
RESOURCES AGENCY ENVIRONMENTAL ENHANCEMENT AND MITIGATION GRANT
PROGRAM (EEM) TO ACQUIRE TWO PARCELS TO COMPLETE THE ANGELS CREEK TRAIL LINKAGE FROM FINNEGAN LANE TO NEW MELONES; AND
2) AUTHORIZING THE CITY ADMINISTRATOR TO COMPLETE AN APPRAISAL OF THE
SUBJECT PARCELS
RECOMMENDATION
1. Adopt Resolution 24-43 authorizing the City Administrator to submit an application to the California Natural Resources Agency Environmental Enhancement and Mitigation Grant Program to acquire two parcels to complete the Angels Creek Trail linkage from Finnegan Lane to New Melones.
2. Authorize the City Administrator to complete an appraisal of the subject parcels: 064-010-049 and 64- 010-050 (totaling 39± acres)
STRATEGIC PLAN CONSISTENCY
A4 Economic Development
Promote a wide variety of economic opportunities consistent with the city's social, cultural, environmental, and aesthetic resources.
Acquisition of the subject parcels would facilitate completion of the Angels Creek Trail linkage from Finnegan Lane to New Melones. The trail is expected to become an economic development generator for the City.
C7 Public Facilities and Services
Maintain or increase the levels of service currently available within Angels Camp for park facilities and infrastructure. Acquisition of the subject parcels would facilitate completion of the Angels Creek Trail linkage from Finnegan Lane to New Melones
BACKGROUND
The EEM Grant Program seeks projects that off-set environmental impacts caused by new or modified public transportation facilities. When a public transportation project is undertaken, it results in certain environmental impacts (e.g., removing native trees, filling wetlands or creeks, converting oak woodlands). The sponsors of the transportation project are required to mitigate these project impacts in full. However, the EEM Grant Program allows local jurisdictions to further reduce these environmental impacts. 56 Section 10, Item E.
COMMUNITY AND ECONOMIC DEVELOPMENT
CITY OF ANGELS PO Box 667, 200 Monte Verda St. Suite B, Angels Camp, CA 95222 P: (209) 736-1346 For example, if a transportation project removes trees, the EEM Grant Program can fund tree planting. If the transportation project impacts a creek; the EEM Grant Program can be used to acquire conservation lands that will preserve a creek.
The Wagon Trail transportation project impacted California red-legged frog dispersal habitat, oak woodlands, riparian habitat and other jurisdictional wetlands. For this grant, staff proposes “using” the Wagon Trail Project as a Related Transportation Facility (RTF) to acquire 39± acres of habitat that includes Angels Creek and oak woodlands. The parcels importantly provide a strategic link between Finnegan Lane and New Melones along the City’s planned Angels Creek Trail (Figures 1 and 2). The parcels are immediately adjacent to the City’s wastewater treatment plant spray fields.
Based on past experience, staff has found that, if a grant is secured, it can fail to be successfully implemented where landowners/sellers are dissatisfied with the sales price identified in the appraisal process. The EEM Program does not allow for purchases above appraised value. Therefore, successful grant implementation is reliant upon establishing and agreeing to a sales price with the landowner as early as possible in the process.
Therefore, staff is recommending that, although the EEM Grant Program would pay appraisal costs if a grant is awarded, that the city proceed with completing an appraisal in advance of submitting the grant application to ensure that the potential seller is in agreement with the sales price.
A match is not required, but increases the competitiveness of the grant. Therefore, staff is recommending that a soft match be included in the form of vegetation management costs on the parcels.
FISCAL IMPACT
The proposed grant funding would cover land acquisition costs, including escrow and title fees, and attorney’s fees. The proposed appraisal cost is $800.

RE: Update on Planning Commission Recommendation Regarding Feather Flags and Inflatable Tube Signs and Requesting Council Direction to Staff
PLANNING COMMISSION RECOMMENDATION
The City of Angels Planning Commission considered allowing feather flags and inflatable tube signs (Figure 1) as permanent signs at its May 9, 2024 meeting. The Planning Commission recommends to the City Council that feather flags and inflatable tube signs should not be allowed as permanent signs and that no code changes should be made to expand the use of these signs. Their recommendations are based on:
1. Aesthetics.
2. Permanent signage is available to all businesses.
3. These signs are allowed on a temporary basis already under the code. Temporary use is adequate for a grand opening or special event.
4. If additional advertising is needed, current technology allows for social media, messaging, texts, and related methods that can achieve the same result without allowing these signs to be permanent signs.
5. Inadequate enforcement staff exists to regulate such signs as “Portable” signs taken in and out at open and close of business
STRATEGIC PLAN CONSISTENCY
A4 Economic Development
Promote a wide variety of economic opportunities consistent with the city's social, cultural, environmental, and aesthetic resources. The signs proposed herein represent both an economic (advertising) issue and an aesthetic issue.
BACKGROUND
One of the primary purposes of the City’s sign code is to:
“Enhance the economic values of the community and avoid wasteful and unsightly competition in signs, as overly ostentatious signs violate the rights of other sign users as well as the public” Temporary signs are defined as: “ …any sign, banner, pennant, valance, political sign or advertising display constructed of cloth, canvas, light fabric, cardboard, wallboard or other light materials, with or without frames, intended to be displayed for a period of not more than thirty calendar days.” Feather Flags and Inflatable tube signs are temporary signs. Currently, they may be permitted as a temporary sign subject to the issuance of a Temporary Sign Permit by the City (Angels Municipal Code Section 15.12.210). However, the city has witnessed a proliferation of feather flags citywide without securing a sign permit (temporary or permanent). 62 Section 10, Item F.
COMMUNITY AND ECONOMIC DEVELOPMENT
CITY OF ANGELS PO Box 667, 200 Monte Verda St. Suite B, Angels Camp, CA 95222 P: (209) 736-1346 Code enforcement has been pursuing removal of all such signs citywide in response to complaints. In response to enforcement actions, some business owners have requested that the city consider allowing these signs permanently. On May 9, 2024, the City of Angels Planning Commission did so.
An overview of multiple jurisdictions relative to permitting feather flags reveals that, for those that allow such signs, common parameters addressed for them include:
x Setbacks from roadways/rights-of-way
x Size allowed
x Total number allowed
x Duration allowed
x Condition of flag, Maintenance, Removal for deteriorated feather flags x Relationship to permanent signage
x Separation between feather flags
x Display only when business is open (take in after close of business) x Anchoring against wind gusts
x Cannot obscure visibility
Based on a review of multiple California jurisdictions, three categories exist:
1. Those prohibiting feather flags (Carlsbad, Grover Beach, Ceres, San Luis Obispo, Anaheim, Santa Maria,
2. Those allowing feather flags, but only as temporary signage (City of Paramount, Escondido)
3. Those allowing feather flags as “Portable” signs taken in and out at open and close of business (e.g., Visalia, Rocklin )
Staff specifically requested that the Planning Commission address the following:
x Appropriateness of feather flags in the Historic District x Concerns about the ability of these flags to “fly” into travel lanes along SR 4/49 during extreme wind events.
x Should such flags be allowed in addition to the total signage permitted under the code
FISCAL IMPACT
Potential financial impacts would be associated with code enforcement activities.

FROM: Rebecca Callen, City Administrator
RE: BEAUTIFICATION UPDATE AND DIRECTION ON POLE BANNERS RECOMMENDATION:
Discuss the city’s progress on various beautification projects and make recommendations on pole banner designs.
STRATEGIC PLAN ALIGNMENT:
Conservation & Open Space Maintain and, where feasible, enhance the city's appearance Economic Development Maintain and enhance the city's economic vitality while conserving the city's social, cultural, environmental, and aesthetic resources BACKGROUND:
The City has been focused on investments in beautification to promote tourism, build city pride, and drive business.
Funding for these initiatives has come from the infusion of Covid Relief funds received.
DISCUSSION:
1. Benches:
a. Background: The Planning Commission engaged in determining a design standard for benches that would not impede accessibility on sidewalks.
b. Order: Benches were ordered from Park Warehouse in October 2023 based on the Planning Commission's recommendations.
c. Installation: Benches are tentatively scheduled to be installed the week of May 20, 2024.
2. Holiday Swags:
a. Approval and Order: Council approved the purchase of new holiday swags to be placed across Highway
49. To secure a significant discount, the order was placed in February 2023. b. Vendor: Ordered from Holiday Outdoor Decor.
c. Arrival and Storage: Slated to arrive by the end of May 2023. Swags will be stored and installed as per normal holiday procedures.
3. Trash Cans:
a. Proposal: In November 2023, staff recommended replacing plastic open-lid trash cans with aesthetically pleasing fixed location split canisters.

b. Research: After thorough research, the design that meets accessibility standards was found through Forms+Surface.
c. Order and Arrival: Orders are being placed, with an expected delivery in 8-10 weeks from the order date.
4. Pole Banners:
a. Request: A request was made to investigate the feasibility of pole banners. b. Research and Coordination: Staff have been researching in coordination with CalTrans. c. Vendor: Gateway Signs can print and install the banners. d. Mock-Ups and Installation: Review mock-ups for ordering e. Considerations: Banners must promote the City only, not for private use. They must have slits to avoid wind damage and need to be installed with ties to avoid removal by wind. Due to limited staff bandwidth, external installation assistance is required.
Budget and Costs:
All expenses are contemplated within the current budget and all costs will be realized within this fiscal year.
Action Items:
5. Council to provide feedback on pole banner designs prior to ordering.
6. Confirmation on the understanding that all beautification efforts are within budget and will be executed as planned.
FINANCIAL IMPACT:
All funding was in the budget and using COVID Relief funds.

RE: SUPPORT LETTERS OPPOSING SB1037 AND AB1886
RECOMMENDATION:
Allow the Mayor to sign the opposing letters
BACKGROUND:
SB 1037 and AB 1886 are the newest addition to the state’s annual barrage of overreaching housing bills that make it harder for cities to help achieve the state’s housing goals.
Instead of pursuing legislation that seeks to punish local jurisdictions — even those working diligently to follow ever-changing housing laws — lawmakers should partner with local officials to provide clear guidance and technical assistance that helps them finalize their housing elements and put those plans to work so that muchneeded housing construction can occur.
What do SB 1037 and AB 1886 specifically do?
SB 1037 (Wiener)
· Allows the Attorney General to take legal action against a city and seek fines up to $50K a month for violating unspecified state housing laws that require ministerial approval of certain housing projects or for failing to adopt a housing element that substantially complies with the law, even if the jurisdiction is acting in good faith.
AB 1886 (Alvarez)
· Subjects cities to builder’s remedy projects unless the California Department of Housing and Community Development or a court determines that the local agency’s housing element substantially complies with the law. The builder’s remedy allows a developer to construct a project that is inconsistent with both the city’s general plan and zoning standards, except for sites that are identified for very low-, low-, or moderate-income housing.
· Eliminates local government’s ability to “self-certify” their housing element.
FINANCIAL IMPACT:

RE: AB 1886 (Alvarez) Housing Element Law: Substantial Compliance Notice of Opposition (As of April 1, 2024)
Dear Assemblyman Patterson,
The City of Angels, regretfully must oppose measure AB 1886 (Alvarez), because it turns its back to a fundamental provision of housing element law: A city may disagree with HCD; explain why its housing element is in substantial compliance with the law; and then adopt that housing element which is thereafter considered “in substantial compliance with housing element law.” For decades, cities have worked with HCD to draft housing plans that accommodate their fair share of housing at all income levels. These extensive and complex plans can take years to develop, include public involvement and engagement, and environmental review. Cities go to great lengths to ensure that their housing element substantially complies with the law, even if HCD disagrees. Current law acknowledges this fact by allowing cities to “self-certify” their housing element or take the issue to court and have a judge make the final determination of substantial compliance.
AB 1886 encourages “builder’s remedy” projects by eliminating self-certification for the purpose of what it means to have a housing element “in substantial compliance with the law.” The “builder’s remedy” allows a developer to choose any site other than a site that is identified for very low-, low-, or moderate-income housing, and construct a project that is inconsistent with both the city’s general plan and zoning. AB 1886 facilitates such projects for those cities that have a good faith disagreement based in substantial evidence.
The City of Angels, believes that AB 1886 is counterproductive. What is really needed is for HCD to partner with cities to provide meaningful direction that helps them finalize their housing elements and put those plans to work so that much needed housing construction can occur. For these reasons, the City of Angels, must oppose AB 1886 (Alvarez). If you have any questions, do not hesitate to contact me at [email protected] or 209-559-4490

RE: SB 1037 (Wiener) Planning and zoning: housing element: enforcement Notice of Opposition (As of April 25, 2024)
Dear Senator Alvarado-Gill
The City of Angels, must oppose measure SB 1037 (Wiener), which would allow the Attorney General to take legal action against a city and seek fines up to $50K a month for failure to adopt a compliant housing element or if the city does not follow state laws that require ministerial approval of certain housing projects.
Under existing law cities can be subject to significant fines and penalties for violating certain housing laws.
However, before fines are imposed, a city has the ability to correct the action. Additionally, enhanced fines are not imposed unless the city fails to follow a court’s order or acts in bad faith.
Unfortunately, as currently drafted, SB 1037 does not provide an opportunity for cities to correct an honest mistake or address a genuine difference in interpreting the law. Even those jurisdictions acting in good faith could be subject to significant fines and be required to pay the Attorney General for all costs investigating and prosecuting the action, including expert witness fees and attorney’s fees.
Instead of creating new fines and penalties, lawmakers and the Department of Housing and Community Development should provide cities with clear guidance and technical assistance to help them finalize their housing elements and put those plans to work so much-needed housing construction can occur.
For these reasons, the City of Angels, must oppose SB 1037. If you have any questions, do not hesitate to contact me at [email protected] or 209-559-4490.

RE: MEASURE A FIRE JPA REPORTING & BUDGET
RECOMMENDATION:
Accept Calaveras Local Fire Protection Tax (CLFPT) Budget and Staffing Baseline reports.
BACKGROUND:
Measure A, known as the Calaveras Local Fire Protection Tax, was approved by voters to provide dedicated funding for fire protection services across Calaveras County. This measure imposes a special tax on properties within the county, with the revenue allocated to enhance fire prevention, firefighting capabilities, and emergency response services.
The Joint Powers Authority (JPA), comprising various fire districts and the City of Angels, is responsible for overseeing the distribution and utilization of these funds. Each fiscal year, participating fire districts and departments are required to submit their plans for the use of Measure A funds to the JPA. These plans detail how the revenue will be allocated to meet local fire protection needs.
DISCUSSION:
By June 1, 2024, the fire districts and City of Angels must submit their plans for the 2024/25 fiscal year to the JPA. These plans are expected to outline specific projects, equipment purchases, personnel hiring, and other initiatives aimed at improving fire safety and emergency response within their respective jurisdictions.
The JPA will review these submissions to ensure they align with the objectives of Measure A and that the proposed uses are fiscally responsible and beneficial to the community. Once the review is completed, the JPA will compile the individual plans into a comprehensive summary report. This report will be made available to the public, providing transparency and accountability regarding the use of Measure A funds.

FINANCIAL IMPACT:
The financial impact of the Measure A funds on the local fire protection services is significant. For the 2024/25 fiscal year, the City of Angels is expected to receive 50% of the annual tax in the amount of $237,150 increasing the General Fund for the Fire Department.
