SUBMITTED BY: Julie Haas-Wajdowicz, Administrative Analyst Ill ,JfltJ APPROVED BY: Tasha Johnson, Public Safety & Community Resources Director-ro SUBJECT: Resolution Approving Climate Action and Resilience Plan (CARP) 2025 Update

RECOMMENDED ACTION
It is recommended that the City Council adopt a resolution approving the Climate Action and Resilience Plan ("CARP", Attachment A, Exhibit A).

FISCAL IMPACT
Approving the CARP at this time allows the City to link it to the United States' Department of Housing and Urban Development Five-year Consolidated Plan, giving some programs identified in the CARP a possible funding source for the next 5 years.

DISCUSSION
Background
Climate Change and Resilience
The City of Antioch began its climate work in 2007 when we joined ICLEI - Local Governments for Sustainability and conducted o"t.1r first Greenhouse Gas Emissions ("GHG") inventory for 2005. In 2009, the City Council adopted Resolution 2009/57 (Attachment B) setting GHG emission reduction goals for Antioch. In 2010, the City adopted its first Climate Action Plans (CAPs). These CAPs, and subsequent CARP's, included greenhouse gas (GHG) emission reports from 2005-2022. GHG emissions have fallen since 2018, according to inventories conducted as a part of this CARP update (Fig.

A). This document is the second edition of the CARP, which incorporates resiliency into climate work. By incorporating resilience into the climate plan, implementation work is eligible for federal Community Block Development Grant ("CDBG") funding.

Since 2007, the City has made progress towards climate goals. Much of this has been driven by State actions. In 2022 the State of California passed AB 1279, mandating that J

TO: Honorable Mayor and Members of the City Council
SUBMITTED BY: Jazmin Ridley, Unhoused Resident Coordinator APPROVED BY: Tasha Johnson, Public Safety and Community Resources Director SUBJECT: Approval of a Budget Reallocation of $75,000 for a City Funded Coordinated Outreach Referral Engagement (C.O.R.E.) Team

RECOMMENDED ACTION
It is recommended that the City Council adopt a resolution authorizing the budget reallocation of $75,000 to support 50% of a City funded C.O.R.E. Team through the end of FY25 from January 1, 2025 through June 30, 2025 using salary savings.

FISCAL IMPACT
The estimated cost of establishing a City C.O.R.E. Team is $150,000, with 50% to be funded with ERF funds the City was recently awarded and 50% City match required. It is recommended to reallocate vacancy savings from four unfilled Community Resource Specialists positions that will not be filled by end of fiscal year to the City portion, requiring a budget amendment for the re-allocation.

DISCUSSION
The City of Antioch recognizes homelessness as a substantial challenge affecting its diverse resident population. According to the 2024 Point in Time count, there has been a 24% increase in the City's homeless population since 2023, with a total of 413 individuals either utilizing shelter beds or living outdoors. This year, Antioch accounts for the highest rate of homelessness in the county, surpassing Richmond, which has a Point in Time count of 388.

The Coordinated Outreach Referral and Engagement (C.O.R.E.) program, operated by Contra Costa County, is the primary outreach initiative for individuals experiencing homelessness. C.O.R.E. teams provide persistent engagement, offering essential health services, basic needs support, and pathways to permanent housing. These teams are critical to the County's coordinated entry system, assessing housing and service needs, connecting individuals to shelter, and facilitating access to supportive services.

Antioch City Council Reporl
November 26, 2024 Agenda ltem#K 2
Currently, Antioch does not have its own City funded C.O.R.E. team. Residents must rely on limited resources, such as calling 2-1-1 or visiting CARE centers in Richmond or Walnut Creek. While county teams provide coverage from 7:00 AM to midnight, seven days a week, the absence of a dedicated City-funded team in Antioch limits its ability to address homelessness locally and comprehensively.

From January 1, 2024 to November 17, 2024, the following statistics were recorded for the City of Antioch:
• 5,393 engagements
• 1,675 unduplicated contacts
• 133 individuals placed into housing with a subsidy
• 51 individuals placed into housing without a subsidy
• 138 individuals placed into long-term shelter
• 27 individuals relocated to housing outside of the county • 22 individuals were referred to substance abuse treatment With a City funded team, Antioch will achieve even greater outcomes by concentrating efforts solely on its residents and enhancing service delivery.

In April 2024, the City of Antioch successfully applied for the Encampment Resolution Funding (ERF) Round 3 and was awarded the full requested amount of $6,812,686 on September 27, 2024. This funding will significantly enhance the City's capacity to address challenges associated with the encampment near Sunset Drive and Devpar Court, benefiting approximately 30-40 unsheltered residents. Currently, under ERF grant guidelines, the City funded team is authorized to serve only the encampment at Sunset Drive and Devpar Court. A portion of the grant will cover 50% of the costs for a C.O.R.E.

Outreach team dedicated to supporting those individuals living in the encampment. This resolution seeks to secure the remaining 50%-$75,000-to fund a full-time City supported C.O.R.E. team from January 1, 2025 to June 30, 2025. Additional funding for FY26/27 will be addressed in the upcoming two-year budget cycle.

In addition to outreach and engagement, a dedicated City of Antioch C.O.R.E. team will collaborate directly with the Police Department to handle welfare checks on unhoused individuals minimizing the need for police involvement and optimizing the use of City resources. Furthermore, the C.O.R.E. team will partner with the Angelo Quinto Community Response Team (AQCRT), which addresses non-violent and non-medical calls through the 911 system. The $75,000 provided by resolution will fund the remaining 50% of services, enabling the dedicated C.O.R.E. team to address critical areas throughout the city.

STAFF REPORT TO THE CITY COUNCIL
DATE: Regular Meeting of November 26, 2024
TO: Honorable Mayor and Members of the City Council
SUBMITTED BY: Nathan Tinclair, Associate Planner - NST
APPROVED BY: Kevin Scudero, Acting Community Development Director -KS SUBJECT: Tentative Map Approval Procedure Ordinance (LA2024-0002)

RECOMMENDED ACTION
It is recommended that the City Council introduce by title only and waive the further reading of the ordinance to adopt text amendments to Title 9, Chapter 4, Article 1 (Title, Purpose, Scope, and Advisory Agency) and Article 3 (Tentative Maps) of the Antioch Municipal Code to allow the Antioch Planning Commission to approve Tentative Maps.

FISCAL IMPACT
There is no anticipated direct or indirect fiscal impact because of this action.

DISCUSSION
Title 9, Chapter 4 (Subdivisions) of the Antioch Municipal Code (“AMC”) contains regulations implementing the State of California’s Subdivision Map Act, including establishing the Antioch Planning Commission (“Planning Commission”) as the Advisory Agency, but also requiring that the City Council approve all Tentative Maps that are not considered minor.

In order to streamline Antioch’s development review process and make it more consistent with neighboring jurisdictions and the goals of the Housing Element, this proposed ordinance (“Ordinance”) amends AMC Title 9, Chapter 4, Articles 1 and 3 to assign the Planning Commission the sole authority to approve Tentative Maps as the Advisory Agency in compliance with the Subdivision Map Act, while designating the City Council to act as the Appeals Board for Tentative Map decisions and to continue approving Final Maps.

BACKGROUND
The Subdivision Map Act establishes local agency responsibilities for the design and division of improved and unimproved land. The Act requires that projects submit a Tentative and Final Map for all subdivisions containing five or more parcels, except under certain limited circumstances. Tentative Maps are reviewed by City Engineering and Community Development staff for compliance with development standards, general plan and/or specific plan guidelines, zoning provisions and other state and local regulations.

Antioch City Council Report
November 26, 2024 Agenda Item# 7 2
Processing also includes completing necessary environmental review in compliance with the California Environmental Quality Act (“CEQA”). Once staff has evaluated a Tentative Map application, the map is forwarded to the approving body (here, the Planning Commission) with a recommendation to approve, conditionally approve, or deny the map, depending on whether it complies with the above areas of evaluation, or otherwise poses a threat to health and safety. When a local agency approves or conditionally approves a Tentative Map, that approval confers the right to proceed with development in substantial compliance with the approved map. In order to complete the subdivision of land, the developer is required to submit a Final Map which shows substantial compliance with the Tentative Map.

The Subdivision Map Act authorizes the City to delegate the approval, conditional approval, or disapproval of Tentative Maps to the Planning Commission. The City of Antioch is an outlier among nearby jurisdictions in that it requires the City Council to approve both Tentative Maps and Final Maps. Nearby jurisdictions that allow their Planning Commissions to approve Tentative Maps include:
 Pittsburg
 Brentwood
 Oakley
 Walnut Creek
 Concord
 Contra Costa County (for unincorporated areas)

ANALYSIS
Antioch’s 2023-2031 General Plan Housing Element outlined a number of implementing programs to facilitate the production of housing in the City, including Implementing Program 4.1.1 “Maintain a Streamlined, Affordable Application Process.” As part of this program, the City committed to reviewing its development review procedures and modifying procedures and requirements that unduly impact the cost or supply of housing.

Requiring City Council approval for Tentative Maps adds weeks or months on to the timeline for entitlement approval. Additionally, including this additional level of discretionary review adds a layer of uncertainty to developments, which may not be experienced in other nearby jurisdictions.

Eliminating the necessity of an additional hearing also saves the project applicant hundreds of dollars in permitting costs for staff time preparing reports and presentations and attending the actual hearing, as well as the costs to prepare, distribute and publish an additional public hearing notice.

Adoption of this Ordinance will not change staff’s current duty of evaluating projects for compliance with local and state laws, plans and regulations. Furthermore, this Ordinance does not exempt projects from following the CEQA environmental review process.

In the event that a project requires entitlements that must be approved by the City Council, such as would be the case for a Planned Development or other rezoning or General Plan Amendment, the City Council would continue to be the final approving body for all of the project entitlements. This ordinance makes the approval of Tentative Maps consistent with the City Council’s role as the as the body that establishes citywide plans, guidelines Antioch City Council Report
November 26, 2024 Agenda Item# 7 3
and policy, and the Planning Commission as the body that evaluates individual projects.

The City Council will also serve as the sole body hearing appeals of any Tentative Map approvals. Therefore, in the event that a decision of the Planning Commission is controversial, and an appeal is filed in accordance with section 9-5.2509 of the Antioch Municipal Code, the City Council would make the ultimate determination as to whether the map meets the city’s adopted standards, and other relevant local, state and federal laws.

For these reasons, staff feels that this Ordinance will streamline development without sacrificing the City Council’s ability to be the ultimate arbiter of the discretionary approvals required for a development project.

PLANNING COMMISSION ACTION
On November 6, 2024, the Antioch Planning Commission held a public hearing regarding the proposed ordinance. There were no comments from the public. The Commission asked staff about the staff report, and process for reviewing tentative maps. Upon close of the public hearing, the Antioch Planning Commission voted 5-0, with one Commissioner absent, to recommend City Council approval of the proposed ordinance.

ENVIRONMENTAL REVIEW
The proposed Ordinance is not a project under CEQA, pursuant to CEQA Guidelines section 15378(b)(5) and Public Resources Code section 21065, because it constitutes organizational or administrative activities of the City that will not result in direct or reasonably foreseeable indirect physical changes in the environment. Specifically, the proposed Ordinance would only establish and clarify administrative processes required by state law and would not approve new construction or other groundbreaking activities.

Thus, there is no potential to result in either a direct physical change to the environment or a reasonably foreseeable indirect physical change to the environment. Accordingly, this Ordinance is not a project under CEQA and no further environmental review is required. This determination reflects the City’s independent judgment and analysis.

SECTION 9: CEQA
The City Council finds that the adoption of this Ordinance is not a project under CEQA, pursuant to CEQA Guidelines section 15378(b)(5) and Public Resources Code section 21065, because it constitutes organizational or administrative activities of the City that will not result in direct or reasonably foreseeable indirect physical changes in the environment. Specifically, the proposed Ordinance would only establish and clarify administrative processes required by state law and would not approve new construction or other groundbreaking activities. Thus, there is no potential to result in either a direct physical change to the environment or a reasonably foreseeable indirect physical change to the environment. Accordingly, this Ordinance is not a project under CEQA and no further environmental review is required. This determination reflects the City’s independent judgment and analysis.

SECTION 10: Severability

STAFF REPORT TO THE CITY COUNCIL
DATE: Regular Meeting of November 26, 2024
TO: Honorable Mayor and Members of the City Council
SUBMITTED BY: Nathan Tinclair, Associate Planner - NST
APPROVED BY: Kevin Scudero, Acting Community Development Director -KS SUBJECT: Housing-Related Zoning Code Updates Ordinance (LA2024- 0003)

RECOMMENDED ACTION
It is recommended that the City Council introduce by title only and waive the further reading of the ordinance to adopt text amendments to Title 9, Chapter 5, Articles 2 (Definitions) and 38 (Land Use Regulations) of the Antioch Municipal Code, to reflect updated requirements for emergency shelters, major transit stops, supportive housing, transitional housing, employee housing, and replacement units required as part of development projects.

FISCAL IMPACT
There is no anticipated direct or indirect fiscal impact because of this action.

DISCUSSION
This item proposes that the City Council adopt an ordinance amending the Zoning Code to meet new state law requirements and fulfill Housing Element implementation programs.

Specifically – the ordinance would make the following changes:

1. Update the definitions of Emergency Shelters and Major Transit Stops.

2. Add a section that creates Employee Housing as a land use category and provides guidelines for its development including that housing for six or fewer employees be considered a single-family structure, and that housing for agricultural employees be considered an agricultural use.

3. Clarify that both supportive and transitional housing projects are considered a residential use of property, subject to the same restrictions that apply to other dwellings of the same type in the same zone.

4. Add a section that establishes requirements for the replacement of dwelling units.

5. Update footnotes to Table of Land Use Regulations to reflect updates in State law.

BACKGROUND
The City of Antioch’s 2023-2031 Housing Element, which was adopted on January 24,

Antioch City Council Report
November 26, 2024 Agenda Item# 8 2

2023, and certified by the California Department of Housing and Community Development on October 12, 2023, outlines 67 implementing programs to support the production of housing for all income levels, household types, and needs, and deliver the 3,016 units assigned as part of Antioch’s Regional Housing Needs Allocation (RHNA).

Concurrently with the adoption of the Housing Element in January 2023, staff brought forward an ordinance, approved by City Council, amending several sections of the zoning code to comply with Housing Element policies and state laws, including changes to the design review process for multi-family projects, rezoning of parcels identified in the Housing Element, and updates to the allowed uses in residential and mixed-use zones.

On November 28, 2023, the City Council adopted two additional ordinances related to updating the zoning code in furtherance of the Housing Element and compliance with state laws, including establishing new requirements for accessory dwelling units (ADU’s).

Since development and adoption of the Housing Element, the State of California has continued to implement legislation regulating the ways in which cities evaluate housing project applications, including AB 2553, discussed further below.

This proposed ordinance is in furtherance of the following Housing Element programs and state laws:

Housing Element Programs

3.1.5 Emergency Shelters, Supportive, and Transitional Housing – this program requires updates to the zoning code to accommodate emergency shelters, supportive and transitional housing. The zoning code was previously amended to update requirements for emergency shelters, to allow supportive housing in multi-family zoning districts, as well as allow transitional housing subject to the same standards and procedures of residential uses in the same zone.

3.1.6 Zoning for Employee Housing— this program requires updates to the zoning code to accommodate employee housing – including defining housing for six or fewer employees as a single-family structure, as well as treating agricultural employee housing for 36 beds or less in group setting, or 12 individual units or less, as an agricultural use.

5.1.18 Replacement Housing—this program requires that replacement of units affordable to the same or lower income level be included as a condition of development on any nonvacant site identified in the Housing Element.

State Laws
AB 2553 – passed in 2023. This legislation updates the definition of “Major Transit Stop” – which includes rail or bus rapid transit stations, ferry terminals served by bus or rail transit, and the intersection of two or more major bus routes with a frequency of service interval of 20 minutes or less (was previously 15 minutes or less). In Antioch, the only locations currently meeting the definition of a Major Transit Stop are the Antioch BART station and Antioch-Pittsburg Amtrak station.

SB 330/AB 1218 – SB 330, the Housing Crisis Act of 2019, added replacement unit requirements applicable to housing developments proposing to demolish existing Antioch City Council Report
November 26, 2024 Agenda Item# 8 3

dwelling units. AB 1218, passed in 2023, expanded these replacement unit requirements to all development projects demolishing protected units.

ANALYSIS
The proposed ordinance implements Housing Element programs, codifies state law, and provides clarification and upkeep for the Antioch Municipal Code.

Antioch’s zoning regulations only allow for the continuation of the small amounts of existing agricultural uses, not expansion of agriculture, so staff does not anticipate that the employee housing amendments will result in significant development of agricultural workforce housing in Antioch. Small employee housing for six or fewer residents would be treated as a single-family house and could be developed in neighborhoods throughout the city.

The requirement for replacement dwelling units comes from state housing element law and the Housing Crisis Act of 2019. Projects that replace protected dwelling units would be required to provide comparable replacement units affordable to the same income level.

Government Code section 66300.5 defines protected units as:
1) Residential dwelling units that are or were subject to a recorded covenant, ordinance, or law that restricts rents to levels affordable to persons and families of lower or very low income in the past five years;
2) Residential dwelling units that are or were subject to any form of rent or price control through a public entity’s valid exercise of its police power within the past five years;
3) Residential dwelling units that are or were rented by lower or very low-income households within the past five years;
4) Residential dwelling units that were withdrawn from rent or lease in accordance with Chapter 12.75… of Division 7 of Title 1 within the past 10 years.

There is an additional requirement that housing development projects must create at least as many units as they will demolish, as well as replacement unit requirements for non- vacant sites listed within the Housing Element inventory of available sites.

The proposed ordinance clarifies that per Government Code section 65583(c)(3), supportive housing (i.e. transitional housing) is also allowed subject to the same standards and procedures of residential uses in the same zone, and it adds a footnote better defining transitional housing.

The table below summarizes the proposed text amendments and the reason for requesting them:

PLANNING COMMISSION ACTION
On November 6, 2024, the Antioch Planning Commission held a public hearing regarding the proposed ordinance. There were no comments from the public. The Commission asked staff about the staff report, and for clarification regarding replacement unit requirements and the definition of protected units. Upon close of the public hearing, the Antioch Planning Commission voted 5-0, with one Commissioner absent, to recommend City Council approval of the proposed ordinance.

Thus, there is no potential to result in either a direct physical change to the environment or a reasonably foreseeable indirect physical change to the environment. Accordingly, this Ordinance is not a project under CEQA, and no further environmental review is required. This determination reflects the City’s independent judgment and analysis.

dwellings of the same type in the same zone. Transitional housing developments must meet the definition of Government Code Section 65582 (j). Developments which do not meet such

SECTION 7: Amendment to Section 9-5.3809
Section 9-5.3809 of the Antioch Municipal Code is hereby amended to read as follows, with additions shown in underline and deletions indicated by strikethrough:

§ 9-5.3809 AGRICULTURAL USES.

Pre-existing agricultural uses can be continued and not expanded. Employee housing for agricultural uses is also permitted in zones where pre-existing agricultural uses are allowed subject to § 9-5.3851, Employee Housing, of this article.

SECTION 8: Addition of Section 9-5.3851
Section 9-5.3851 is hereby added to Title 9, Chapter 5, Article 38 of the Antioch Municipal Code, to read as follows:

§ 9-5.3851 EMPLOYEE HOUSING.
(A) Pursuant to California Health and Safety Code § 17021.5, employee housing providing accommodations for six or fewer employees shall be deemed a single-family structure with a residential land use designation. No conditional use permit, zoning variance, or other zoning clearance shall be required of employee housing that serves six or fewer employees that is not required of a family dwelling of the same type in the same zone. Employee housing, as defined in California Health and Safety Code § 17008, shall not be included within the definition of a boarding house, rooming house, hotel, dormitory, or other similar term that implies that the employee housing is a business run for profit or differs in any other way from a family dwelling. The provisions of this subdivision shall be interpreted to fulfill the requirements of Cal. Health and Safety Code § 17021.5. Any changes to that Cal. Health and Safety Code § 17021.5 shall be deemed to supersede and govern any conflicting provisions contained herein.

(B) Pursuant to California Health and Safety Code § 17021.6, any employee housing consisting of no more than 36 beds in group quarters, or 12 units or spaces designed for use by a single family or household, working for an agricultural use, shall be deemed an agricultural use. No conditional use permit, zoning variance or other discretionary approval shall be required of this employee housing for up to 12 units or 36 beds that is not required of any other agricultural activity in the same A26

Ordinance No. XXXX-C-S Page 27 of 28 [Adoption Date]

zone. Pursuant to California Health and Safety Code § 17021.8, a new agricultural employee housing development that meets certain criteria is eligible for a streamlined, ministerial approval process and is not subject to a conditional use permit. The provisions of this subdivision shall be interpreted to fulfill the requirements of Cal. Health and Safety Code §§ 17021.6 and 17021.8. Any changes to Cal. Health and Safety Code § 17021.6 and § 17021.8 shall be deemed to supersede and govern any conflicting provisions contained herein.

SECTION 9: Addition of Section 9-5.3852
Section 9-5.3852 is hereby added to Title 9, Chapter 5, Article 38 of the Antioch Municipal Code, to read as follows:

§ 9-5.3852 REPLACEMENT OF DWELLING UNITS.
(A) No project shall be approved that will require the demolition of occupied or vacant protected units, unless the project complies with the applicable replacement requirements of Government Code § 66300.6(b). (B) A housing development project shall not be approved if it requires demolition of one or more residential dwelling units unless the project will create at least as many units as will be demolished.
(C) For any project on a nonvacant site identified in the General Plan Housing Element inventory of adequate sites, dwelling units shall also be replaced consistent with Government Code § 65915(c)(3). (D) The terms used in this section are as defined in Government Code § 66300.5, and Antioch Municipal Code § 9-5.203.

SECTION 10: CEQA
The City Council finds that the adoption of this Ordinance is not a project under CEQA pursuant to CEQA Guidelines section 15378(b)(5) and Public Resources Code section 21065, because it constitutes organizational or administrative activities of the City that will not result in direct or reasonably foreseeable indirect physical changes in the environment. Specifically, the proposed Ordinance would only establish and clarify administrative processes required by state law and the City’s adopted Housing Element and would not approve new construction or other groundbreaking activities. Thus, there is no potential to result in either a direct physical change to the environment or a reasonably foreseeable indirect physical change to the environment. This determination reflects the City’s independent judgment and analysis.

SECTION 11: Severability
Should any provision of this Ordinance, or its application to any person or circumstance, be determined by a court of competent jurisdiction to be unlawful, unreasonable, or A27

Ordinance No. XXXX-C-S Page 28 of 28 [Adoption Date]

otherwise void, that determination shall have no effect on any other provision of this Ordinance or the application of this Ordinance to any other person or circumstance and, to that end, the provisions hereof are severable.

SECTION 12: Publication; Effective Date
This Ordinance shall take effect and be enforced within thirty (30) days from and after the date of its adoption by the City Council at a second reading and shall be posted and published in accordance with the California Government Code.

* * * * * * * I HEREBY CERTIFY that the foregoing ordinance was introduced at a regular meeting of the City Council of the City of Antioch, held on the 26th day of November 2024, and passed and adopted at a regular meeting thereof, held on the ____day of ____ 2024, by the following vote:
