However, at all times, Axon will comply with its obligations pursuant to the Axon Cloud Services Terms of Use Appendix to maintain a comprehensive data security program (including compliance with the CJIS Security Policy for Criminal Justice Information), privacy program, and data governance policy, including high industry standards of de -identifying Personal Data, to enforce its security and privacy obligations for the ACEIP. ACEIP has 2 tiers of participation, Tier 1 and Tier 2. By default, Customer will be a participant in ACEIP Tier 1. If Customer does not want to participate in ACEIP Tier 1, Customer can revoke its consent at any time. If Customer wants to participate in Tier 2, as detailed below, Customer can check the ACEIP Tier 2 box below. If Customer does not want to participate in ACEIP Tier 2, Customer should leave box unchecked. At any time, Customer may revoke its consent to ACEIP Tier 1, Tier 2, or both Tiers.
2. ACEIP Tier 1.
2.1. When Axon uses Customer Content for the ACEIP Purposes, Axon will extract from Customer Content and may store separately copies of certain s egments or elements of the Customer Content (collectively, "ACEIP Content"). When extracting ACEIP Content, Axon will use commercially reasonable efforts to aggregate, transform or de -identify Customer Content so that the extracted ACEIP Content is no longer reasonably capable of being associated with, or could reasonably be linked directly or indirectly to a particular individual ("Privacy Preserving Technique(s)"). For illustrative purposes, some examples are described in footnote 1 1.
For clarity, ACEIP Content will still be linked indirectly, with an attribution, to the Customer from which it was extracted. This attribution will be stored separately from the data itself, but is necessary for and will be solely used to enable Axon to identify and delete all ACEIP Content upon Customer request. Once de -identified, ACEIP Content may then be further modified, analyzed, and used to create derivative works. At any time, Customer may revoke the consent granted herein to Axon to access and use Customer Content for ACEIP Purposes. Within 30 days of receiving the Customer’s request, Axon will no longer access or use Customer Content for ACEIP Purposes and will delete any and all ACEIP Content. Axon will also delete any derivative works which may reasonably be capable of being associated with, or could reasonably be linked directly or indirectly to Customer. In addition, if Axon uses Customer Content for the ACEIP Purposes, upon request, Axon will make available to Customer a list of the specific type of Customer Content being used to generate ACEIP Content, the purpose of such use, and the retention, privacy preserving extraction technique, and relevant data protection practices applicable to the Customer Content or ACEIP Content ( "Use Case"). From time to time, Axon may develop and deploy new Use Cases. At least 30 days prior to authorizing the deployment of any new Use Case, Axon will provid e Customer notice (by updating the list of Use Case at https://www.axon.com/aceip and providing Customer with a mechanism to obtain notice of that update or another commercially reasonable method to Customer designated contact) ("New Use Case").
2.2. Expiration of ACEIP Tier 1. Customer consent granted herein will expire upon termination of the Agreement.
In accordance with section 1.1.1, within 30 days of receiving the Customer’s request, Axon will no longer access or use Customer Content for ACEIP Purposes and will delete ACEIP Content. Axon will also delete any derivative works which may reasonably be capable of being associated with, or could reasonably be linked directly or indirectly to, Customer.
3. ACEIP Tier 2. In addition to ACEIP Tier 1, if Customer wants to help further improve Axon’s services, Customer may choose to participate in Tier 2 of the ACEIP. ACEIP Tier 2 grants Axon certain additional rights to use Customer
1 For example; (a) when extracting specific text to improve automated transcription capabilities, text that could be used to directly identify a particular individual would not be extracted, and extracted text would be disassociated from identifying metadata of any speakers, and the extracted text would be split into individual words and aggregated with other data sources (including publicly available data) to remove any reasonable ability to link any specific text directly or indirectly back to a particular individual; (b) when extracting license plate data to improve Automated License Plate Recognition (ALPR) capabilities, individual license plate characters would be extracted and disassociated from each other so a complete plate could not be reconstituted, and all association to other elements of the source video, such as the vehicle, location, time, and the surrounding environment would also be removed; (c) when extracting audio of potential acoustic events (such as glass breaking or gun shots), very short segments (<1 second) of audio that only contains the likely acoustic events would be extracted and all human utterances would be removed.

Since 2003, new State regulations related to General Plan and Housing Element’s content have been enacted, and the City’s land uses, economics, environmental issues, and population size have changed significantly.
A
t the direction of the City Council, the Planning Division is beginning work on a Comprehensive Update to the General Plan. On April 23, 2025, the City issued a Request for Proposal (RFP) for the preparation of a Comprehensive Update to the General Plan.
The RFP was sent out to fourteen consulting firms and posted on the City’s website. The City received responses from three highly qualified planning firms. City staff reviewed the proposals and conducted interviews with all three firms. Staff also called references for the firms. Based on the submitted proposals, interviews, and reference checks, De Novo Planning Group was selected as the best qualified firm.

The proposal anticipates completing the entire General Plan Update and EIR within a 24- month period. A Zoning Code Update has also been included in the proposal and it will commence once the General Plan Update has been completed. The Zoning Code Update is necessary to implement the General Plan and to ensure consistency between the General Plan and the Zoning Code.

SUBJECT: Proposal to Prepare the Antioch General Plan Update and EIR Dear Mr. Storer:
Speaking on behalf of the entire De Novo Planning Team, we would like to thank you for the opportunity to submit this proposal to comprehensively update the City of Antioch’s General Plan, and prepare the corresponding Program EIR. Based on our past work and knowledge of the unique needs of dynamic cities in Contra Costa County, our review of the existing General Plan , and extensive recent experience preparing a wide range of planning and environmental projects throughout the county and region, we are confident that we have assembled a first-class team to undertake this exciting project and deliver the City with a world-class General Plan and EIR within a very competitively priced budget and schedule.
Our team will provide the C ity with an energetic and dedicated group of professionals with exceptional skills and qualifications. We are 100% committed to this project and will allocate our resources and energy in a way that will exceed all expectations, leaving the City with a useful General Plan that satisfies the community and your elected officials. Our goal is to serve as an extension of your staff in a capacity that will provide the tools, research, and professional knowledge to help craft a General Plan that will implement the vision of the City Council, staff, and the community.
We take tremendous pride in our ability to not only craft exceptional general plans, but to also prepare a useful and legally defensible EIR, which will serve the City well for years to come. We propose to craft the General Plan to be a self-mitigating document, wherein the policies and actions contained in the General Plan will also serve as implementing mitigation measures to be applied at the project level during the processing of subsequent applications and City programs. This proven approach has been very successful in reducing the burdens placed on staff and the development community following general plan adoption.
De Novo Planning Group would serve as the prime consultant for this contract with the C ity. We are joined by our excellent team of subconsultants, including W-Trans (traffic), EPS Economics, Cogstone Resource Management (cultural), and Kearns and West (community outreach). This project team has worked together on numerous recent General Plan Updates and EIRs, including the cities of Brentwood, Martinez, Milpitas, and Lathrop, to name just a few.

Ms. Thompson is an owner/officer with the firm, and is authorized to negotiate on the firm’s behalf. De Novo Principal, Ben Ritchie will serve as the co-Project Manager, and will assist the project team throughout the entire process.
We have structured this scope of work to best meet the City’s needs, as we understand them. However, I would like to emphasize that we are more than happy to work collaboratively with the City to refine this scope of work and approach to best meet the City’s needs and expectations for this very important project.
As described in greater detail in this proposal, we have extensive experience working in growing communities in Contra Costa County, and we are confident that we have the tools and experience to exceed all of the City’s expectations on this project.
We look forward to the opportunity to meet with you either in person or via video call to further discuss our proposal and our approach to the preparation of your General Plan and EIR. If you have any questions regarding this submittal, please do not hesitate to contact me at (916) 949 -3231 or at [email protected].

EXECUTIVE SUMMARY
The City of Antioch is seeking a qualified consulting firm who has demonstrated and relevant General Plan Update experience, to prepare a comprehensive update to the City’s General Plan and prepare an EIR in compliance with CEQA.
The successful consultant team must be familiar with the unique needs of communities in Contra Costa County, and must have demonstrated success implementing a wide range of community outreach and participation tools, in order to maximize meaningful public participation, gain community support, and ensure that the Plan carries forward the vision and values of Antioch residents, businesses, and leadership. As demonstrated throughout this proposal, the De Novo team is uniquely well -qualified to undertake this project. Our project team has completed comprehensive General Plan updates for the cities of Brentwood and Pittsburg, a focused General Plan update for Oakley, and the Housing Element EIR for Martinez.
The City is seeking a firm that will lead and manage all aspects of the General Plan Update, while coordinating with staff, the public, the Planning Commission, and the City Council. The successful firm will be able to complete this comprehensive work eff ort within a reasonable schedule and will maintain strict adherence to the project budget. The General Plan shall be prepared in accordance with State of California General Plan Guidelines and with California Government Code Section 65350 et seq. The EIR shall be completed in accordance with the Public Resources Code and applicable CEQA Guidelines. Since the 2017 update to the California General Plan Guidelines, the De Novo team has completed dozens of General Plan Updates, and we are well versed with all current requirements of State Planning Law and industry best practices.
The City’s General Plan was last comprehensively updated in 2003 with exception of the Housing Element, which has been regularly updated and re-adopted on the cycle prescribed by the State, and the 2023 update to the Safety Element and the addition of the Environmental Justice Element.
This General Plan update will provide the City with the opportunity to review its existing General Plan elements, add elements, revise and update its policies, objectives, and goals, and guide growth in the community through the year 2045. While the current General Plan does a good job of articulating the City’s desires to expand its employment base and transition from being a bedroom community; responsibly manage residential growth; resolve ongoing traffic congestion challenges; and re -establish the River town area and waterfront as a distinctive destination; the General Plan update provides an excellent opportunity to reassess how the City will accomplish these goals in light of changing economic conditions, housing conditions, and new State requirements.
There have been a number of changes to state Planning and Zoning Law in regards to the topics General Plans are required to address. General Plans are still required to cover seven primary elements: land use, housing, circulation, conservation, open space, noise, and safety. However, within the context of these overarching elements the State has provided direction on how to cover specific topics including climate change and resiliency, environmental justice, wildfire risk, urban/wildland interface, flooding, complete streets, and transportation impact metrics. In addition, the California Office of Planning and Research (OPR) updated its General Plan B6
Antioch General Plan Update and EIR Proposal
2 De Novo Planning Group
Guidelines in 2017, which must be considered and followed when undertaking a General Plan Update. Our team has completed numerous comprehensive General Plan updates utilizing OPR’s current Guidelines.
A comprehensive General Plan Update —whereby the City updates the entire General Plan at once and prepares a program -EIR—provides the City with the opportunity to engage the community in a robust discussion regarding the City’s vision and values. This is a chance for the City to create a Vision Statement and clearly articulate the community’s contemporary goals, policies and desired implementation actions. By addressing all topics at once, the City can address critical topics from a broad perspective, realiz e better public involvement due to increased scope and momentum, achieve full CEQA coverage at once, and benefit from a shorter schedule and reduced costs.
A solid General Plan is the bedrock for future growth and development in the City and it supports other critical City plans and programs, including Specific Plans, park planning, fees, and infrastructure master plans.
As noted in our work plan, this proposal would include a comprehensive update to most of the existing General Plan elements, and includes the review and integration of the recently adopted Housing, Safety and Environmental Justice Elements to ensure cohesion and consistency with the rest of the General Plan. We have also included preparation of a comprehensive Economic Development Element as an optional task. Each of these general plan topics will be addressed via a robust set of goals, policies, and implementation actions.
The key components of our proposed work plan are outlined below.

Our Principals, whom are also owners of the firm, are present for all project meetings, draft all sections of all documents pr epared throughout the process, and maintain open and continuous lines of communication with City staff throughout the entire project. We take tremendous pride in our ability to consistently exceed our clients’ expectations and deliver on our commitments. We encourage the City to contact our references to inquire about our recent performance preparing complex projects.
O UR MI SS I O N
Our mission is to provide municipal and private sector clients with world -class professional services, through principal-level attention to every project. We pride ourselves on our ability to work with clients to balance the often conflicting goals of economic, social, environmental, legal, and political forces. Our services result in an integrated planning and environmental solution for every project that is technically sound, cost effective and delivered within the client's schedule.
O UR P H I L O S O P HY

P R O V E N S UC C ES S I N GE NE R A L P L A N U P DA TE S At De Novo, we pride ourselves on delivering unparalleled work quality and ensuring high levels of client satisfaction on all of our projects. Our team of Principals own the firm, and we approach each and every project with exceptional levels of energy, enthusiasm, and accountability. All of the general plan projects that we have undertaken as a firm have been highly successful. We strongly encourage the City to contact all of our general plan references to inquire about the quality of our work, the resp onsiveness of our management team, and our ability to adapt to project changes without altering our budget.
P R O GR E S SI V E P LA NNI NG IDE A S, CO NC E P T S, A ND D E S I GN S KI L LS The De Novo team includes individuals with broad urban planning knowledge and ideologies that will serve to create a General Plan that is progressive and reflects the City's philosophies, beliefs, and values. Our team includes firms with recent local experience and an understanding of pertinent local and regional issues. We have extensive experience preparing General Plans for communities facing growth and economic development pressures, while balancing the desire to retain community charm and character. We have selected a team that is extremely well suited to develop a General Plan that promotes a vibrant and thriving community supported by a land use plan, circulation plan, and policy framework that is based on the values identified by the community.
O NE P R O JE C T TE AM F O R A L L A S P EC T S O F T HE GE NE R A L P L A N U P DA TE We have assembled a focused group of Principal -level planners who will be dedicated to all aspects of this project from start to finish. De Novo’s principal and senior -level staff will serve as the primary authors of each document prepared as part of this work effort (Background Report, General and EIR). By using the same focused team of planners for all stages of this process, we will ensure that each document prepared as part of this process is written in a manner that will maximize its utility later in the process.
B E NE F I T S OF A REL A T IV E L Y S MA L L P LA NNI NG FI R M The De Novo Principals have served as senior project managers with larger consulting firms in California, and through this experience we have gained intimate knowledge of the operational inefficiencies of large firms and the burdens that they can cause pub lic agencies. Larger firms tend to carry cumbersome over -head costs, which results in the need for higher hourly billing rates, frequent contract modifications, and can have high staff turnover, which causes changes in project managers midstream during a project. Because we remain small we are able to offer our clients with significantly lower rates, while still providing our clients with Principal -level attention to each project. We pride ourselves on our ability to deliver on our commitments, exceed expectations, and satisfy our clients with quality work on schedule and on time. Since your project managers are also firm owners, you can rest assured that there will be team continuity throughout the entire General Plan Update process.

W-T RA N S (T RA F F IC A ND C IRC U L A TION )
W-Trans provides traffic engineering and transportation planning services that emphasize mobility within available resources and help transform streets to serve all potential users. We are particularly skilled in retrofitting streets and roads to make walking, bicycling and transit use safer and more convenient while also appropriately managing vehicle traffic.
Our strength and focus are on balancing the technical needs and functionality of traffic with the desire of communities to create more livable streets and sustainable transportation systems.
Our staff have applied their skills to a variety of projects ranging from traffic operation analyses, traffic collision reduction programs, transportation facilities design including traffic signal and roundabout design to downtown revitalization, streetsc ape planning efforts and complete street projects. We take a holistic approach to traffic engineering, realizing that solutions cannot be developed in a vacuum or strictly follow the standards of the past. Traffic analysis and design must be sensitive to the context of the surrounding land use and community goals to be successful.
Our planning studies support the design practice that we also maintain. While the early years focused primarily on vehicle -oriented design services such as traffic signal and signing and striping plans, our design services have evolved with the transpor tation engineering industry and W-Trans has played a crucial role in advocating for, and designing, new state-of-the practice facilities for pedestrians and bicyclists such as enhanced pedestrian crossings and protected and buffered bike lanes.
Through these various types of projects, we have the opportunity of working on diverse issues and concerns, giving us a breadth of potential solutions to any particular problem. We bring this background to our staff services assignments – providing your City with access to solutions that have worked elsewhere as well as understanding why some measures may be better than others for any specific situation. Our staff routinely works as an extension of agency staff – dedicating entire days to be in the office w ith staff if desired – or serving as the staff representative to a traffic committee of some sort. We understand the overwhelming workload assigned to most public agency staff and believe that our role is to help alleviate the crush of that demand by completing tasks that can be spun off to a consulting firm. Our staff services assignments have been as varied as our other types of work. We routinely prepare warrants to determine need for a change in right -of-way controls, evaluate safety concerns, address r esident requests, review traffic studies prepared by others, prepare traffic control plans for special events, and B14

The General Plan was successfully adopted and the EIR was certified in March 2021.
Project Schedule: February 2017 – March 2021.
Project Budget: $1,200,000. No budget changes occurred, and the project was completed under budget.

M I LPI TAS T RAN S I T ARE A S PE CI FI C P LAN – C I TY O F M I LPI TAS The Milpitas BART station and adjacent transit center are strategically located within the Bay Area, accessible to the region’s major job and population centers. However, the site is difficult to reach, and access has traditionally focused on vehicle traffic. The Milpitas Metro Specific Plan reimagined the area within walking distance of the station, envisioning a transit -oriented, mixed-use environment, including approximately 7,000 residential units and three million square feet of office space. W-Trans developed circulation system recommendations to enhance pedestrian and bicycle access and safety as well as a parking and transportation demand management plan that would apply to all incoming development. W -Trans prepared the transportation analysis for th e project EIR and completed an analysis of the plan’s impacts on traffic operations at key intersections.
N O V ATO G E NE RAL P LAN U PD ATE – C I TY O F N O V ATO Through direct work for the City of Novato as well as work on the General Plan EIR as part of the City’s CEQA consulting team, W -Trans completed work on the City of Novato General Plan update and EIR. W -Trans collaborated with City staff to update the pri or General Plan’s circulation policies, including a transition to reflect a more multimodal, “complete streets” focus. W-Trans completed extensive transportation assessments in various parts of the City where the circulation network is constrained, includ ing near the San Marin Avenue -Atherton Avenue interchange, as well as circulation -based sensitivity analyses examining the maximum amount of added health sciences/biotechnology uses that could be added within the Bel Marin Keys industrial park area. W -Trans also prepared the circulation analysis for the General Plan EIR including assessment of consistency with the Marin County Congestion Management Program (CMP) overseen by the Transportation Authority of Marin.
S E B AS TO PO L G E N E RAL P LAN U PD ATE - C I TY O F S EB AS TO PO L As part of a multi -disciplinary team, W-Trans completed an update to the Circulation Element of the City of Sebastopol’s General Plan. W-Trans authored the Circulation Element and associated policies, and conducted evaluations of land use and circulation alternatives as well as preparing an extensive analysis of multimodal circulation. Conversion of the existing one - way street couplet along SR 116 was evaluated to determine the feasibility of conversion to a two-way street network. The update has a stron g focus on maintaining the City’s distinctive downtown and creating pedestrian and bicycle routes. Level of Service exemptions were created in cases where the City found that the infrastructure improvements needed to maintain vehicle LOS (such as roadway or intersection widening or intersection control modifications) would be in conflict with goals of improving multimodal circulation or would adversely impact the character of Sebastopol. The multimodal circulation emphasis reflects the community’s character and meets State of California requirements for Complete Streets.

A transportation and circulation study was prepared that presented the results of an analysis of t he anticipated outcomes of each land use scenario in terms of vehicle miles traveled (VMT), traffic congestion, and use of active transportation modes. W -Trans also prepared the transportation chapter of the EIR to evaluate potential transportation impact s of the preferred land use scenario as defined by CEQA.

C I TY O F DUB LI N ECON O MI C DE VE LO PME N T S TRATE G Y AN D ELE ME N T The City of Dublin selected an EPS -led team to prepare its economic development strategy and element of the General Plan. This project encompassed extensive real estate market analysis, an economic competitiveness assessment, and public outreach. EPS deliv ered a multipronged approach to sustaining and growing the local economy. EPS recommendations included the preservation of incentive programs, improved development services, partnerships, and the suggestion that the City explore the concept of a local economic development corporation.
A notable element of EPS’s work on the Dublin economic development strategy was the study’s comprehensive review of City strengths, weaknesses, opportunities, and threats (SWOT), based on EPS research and interviews with more than 30 members of the public, business groups, planning and development experts, and public officials. EPS considered the City’s competitive position within the regional economy, using the SWOT framework to org anize key findings . A second contribution of EPS’s work in Dublin is the we alth of data and analysis related to the regional economy and real estate market. EPS studied employment trends and projections, evaluating a range of futures for Dublin.
Throughout the study process, EPS led and participated in several public engagements. The project included a public workshop, City Council work session, a final presentation to the City Council, a Planning Commission work session, and a roundtable breakfas t with local business leaders. These public engagements were critical to informing the strategy as well as to building community support for the fundamental direction of the economic development plan.
Most importantly, the City proceeded with the implementation of the EPS Economic Development Strategy. With the adoption of the Plan, the City Council also allocated $125,000 in funding to commence with a marketing and branding strategy engagement, based o n a B28

MANAGEMENT APPROACH
The De Novo team is committed to providing the City with an exceptional General Plan Update process. Our team will write a General Plan that embodies the goals and priorities of the City, and provides a roadmap to achieve the City’s vision of the future, t hrough the land use map, goals, policies, and implementation programs. We will closely coordinate with the City and provide principal-level attention to every step of the process.
In order to ensure that the project remains within budget, on schedule, and the resultant work products are of the highest quality, our team is led by Beth Thompson, a Founding Principal. The following outlines key aspects of our project management approach.
EF F I C I E NT A ND ME A NI NGF UL U S E O F T H E P UBL I C P R O C E SS Gathering public input on the direction and vision for the next 20 years in Antioch is an important part of this General Plan Update. However, the process of working with a group of diverse interests can become challenging and it may be difficult to reach consensus on all issues.
Our work program includes a wide range of measures and techniques intended to maximize and enhance public participation throughout the process. This includes the development of an interactive website dedicated to the General Plan Update, the preparation and dissemination of newsletters throughout the process at key milestones, the use of online surveys and web polls, and hands-on outreach to key community groups (such as the Chamber, Rotary, large regional employers, school districts, local churches, etc.) . The website dedicated to the City’s General Plan Update will provide a central location for all available project information and will also provide a forum for members of the public to track the process and submit comments and input in writing.
Our approach to the management of the public participation and stakeholder process is to meticulously prepare for each Visioning Workshop and City Council, Planning Commission, and community meeting and to ensure that our interest groups understand their roles in the process and are prepared to make the most beneficial use of the time set aside for each meeting.
As professional planners, it is our role to provide the community with the toolkit necessary to implement their vision for Antioch. Our approach to the public and stakeholder process will ensure that the voices of the community are heard and represented in the General Plan, while still providing for a meaningful and streamlined public participation process. Each meeting will be organized to provide adequate time for community input and information will be presented in a manner that is visually interesting and easy for a broad spectrum of participants to understand.
B A LA NC E D FI S CA L A P P R O A C H
As a long -term blueprint to address the community’s vision regarding land use, growth, circulation, conservation, sustainability, and the provision of infrastructure and services, the General Plan will consider and promote Antioch’s fiscal and economic sustainability. De Novo is sensitive to Antioch’s need to balance growth in order to accommodate the City’s housing and economic development needs, while ensuring that the City retains its character, safety, and high level of public services and amenities.
B30
Antioch General Plan Update and EIR Proposal
26 De Novo Planning Group
The General Plan effort includes an optional Economic Development Element. The Economic Development Element will provide a framework for maintaining fiscal and revenue stability for the City. The City already employs many strategies to achieve fiscal sustainability. These approaches will be reviewed and new or modified methods of ensuring that consistent funding is in place to serve existing and new development under the Preferred Land Use Alternative will be developed. The work effort will recognize cha llenges facing the City, such as the potential for reduced revenues from changes in state law and policy effects of the recession and pandemic (development, City investments, etc.), property value reassessments, and other issues that the City may face.
The Economic Development Element will also address the City’s economy from the standpoint of the private sector. Measures to maintain and improve the City’s competitive position in the regional economy, improve diversity of the City’s economy and jobs base, increase opportunities for employment and upward mobility for the local labor force, and encourage redevelopment of underutilized commercial and industrial land will be identified through the goal and policy framework.
S T R I C T A DH E R E NC E T O T H E P R O JE C T SC H E DUL E A ND B UDGE T Our project team is fully committed to delivering the General Plan and Final EIR to the City Council for adoption within a 2-year period. We thrive under tight deadlines and we have a track record of meeting or exceeding our project schedules time and time again. Our use of Principal-level staff throughout all stages of the project allows us to work quickly, efficiently, and produce preliminary draft documents
of superior quality. Our project managers take a very active, hands-on role, and we diligently manage our team and coordinate with City staff to ensure that all parties are continuously aware of pending deadlines, outstanding tasks, and draft work products that will require staff review. The project schedule included in this proposal is aggressive, yet fully achievable. We will implement a range of strategies and techniques to make the most efficient use of staff
time, and our work program includes the preparation of staff reports, meeting summaries, and workshop materials.
We take tremendous pride in our ability to adhere to our project budgets. Our project managers are owners of the firm, and to this end, we have the authority to take any steps necessary to ensure that our projects remain on budget. We strongly encourage the City to call every single one of our
General Plan references and specifically inquire about the extraordinary steps we take to ensure we do not modify or exceed our budgets. This regularly includes the addition of extra meetings and hearings, the inclusion of
additional General Plan Elements, and the
allocation of staff time and resources beyond the levels identified in our proposal, at no extra c
harge to the City. We know that this is a unique way of doing business, but it has proven to yield tremendously successful General Plan projects. All of our General Plan clients have invited us back to do additional planning work following completion of their General Plan Updates. We are in this business for the long-term, and building trust and confidence with our clients is the single greatest thing we can do to build loyalty and repeat business.

TECHNICAL APPROACH
The De Novo team is committed to providing the City with an exceptional General Plan Update process. Our team will write a General Plan that embodies the goals and priorities of the City, and provides a roadmap to achieve the City’s vision of the future, t hrough the land use map, goals, policies, and implementation programs. We will closely coordinate with the City and provide principal-level attention to every step of the process.
Our approach to the Antioch General Plan Update involves the following priorities:
• Streamlined Project Team – A key benefit of the De Novo team is that the project team is composed of principals and senior -level staff that will personally prepare the General Plan and EIR, as well as all supporting documentation, such as the Existing Conditions Report and the Is sues and Opportunities memos. This approach reduces the potential for confusion regarding policy direction (EIR mitigation measures will not conflict with direction received from the Planning Commission, City Council, and City staff during the drafting of the General Plan Update).
• Public Input – Antioch residents, businesspersons, and interest groups will be provided multiple opportunities and venues to identify their vision for Antioch through an extensive series of public workshops, meetings, hearings, online tools, and newsletters. Public input will be documented throughout the process and will be reflected in the Issues and Opportunities memos, Land Use maps, and the General Plan Update. • Extensive Use of Visual Materials – Our documents and reports will be easy to read, easy to understand, and will include numerous graphics and figures to visually represent the concepts and priorities of the General Plan Update.
• Use of Overlapping Planning and Environmental Review Process – De Novo integrates the environmental analysis with the development of the General Plan. This successful and streamlined approach, tested and proven by the De Novo Principals, involves identifying potential environmental impacts at the outset of General Plan policy development in order to ensure that the General Plan is “self-mitigating” and that the EIR does not result in policies and implementation programs that would change the intent of the G eneral Plan. This approach maximizes the use of previously developed information, reduces the overall project budget, and provides consistency between the two documents. • Effective General Plan and EIR - The De Novo project managers have served as contract staff to agencies and have been involved with the implementation and enforcement of mitigation measures and General Plans. This experience gives us the unique perspective and skill of being able to prepare a General Plan policy set and EIR mitigation measures that work within the regulatory processes of a jurisdiction. Our team will work with City staff to ensure that the General Plan and EIR function effectively within th e context of the City’s internal processes (e.g. development project review), ordinances (e.g. Zoning Ordinance) and other requirements (e.g. NPDES permit requirements).
• Close Coordination with Stakeholder, Resource, and Responsible Agencies – Given our experience in preparing General Plans and EIRs, we understand the strong need for early and on -going coordination with stakeholders and resource agencies as well as other agencies that regulate and/or permit activities within the City (e.g., Caltrans, CDFW, LAFCO, B32
Antioch General Plan Update and EIR Proposal
28 De Novo Planning Group
BAAQMD, etc.). Our team will consult all relevant resource and regulatory agencies as part of the General Plan Update, as well as during the Notice of Preparation review and during the preparation of the Draft EIR. Multiple consultations assure that the ag encies have considered the direction of the General Plan Update and have provided input to the analysis and mitigation measures presented in the EIR.
• Utilization of Technical Staff and Sub -Consultants – De Novo has teamed with subconsultants that are leaders in their fields and that have experience working on similar projects and with local issues. Our subconsultants specialize in the areas of multi -modal traffic analysis and policy, fiscal/economic de velopment, cultural and historical resources, and community outreach. De Novo technical team members will provide expertise in the areas of noise, air quality, climate change, and biological resources, as well as aesthetics, land use/planning, population/housing, public services, utilities, and geographic information systems.

SCOPE OF WORK
TASK 1 – PROJECT INITIATION
Within one week of project commencement, the De Novo team will meet with C ity staff to discuss the following:
• Finalize project scope of work, budget, schedule, staff roles and responsibilities, if necessary;
• City preferences for point of contact, method of communication, meeting and workshop responsibilities, project updates, etc.;
• Discuss community outreach approach, including Visioning Workshops, identification of stakeholders, City Council participation, and format for community involvement; and • Collection of relevant background documents and data (adopted documents, reports, and studies, GIS data, etc.).
TASK 2 – COMMUNITY OUTREACH AND PARTICIPATION
At the heart of community planning is
public engagement, where those who will
directly experience the impacts of policy
decisions have a role in shaping their
future. The Public Engagement program for
Antioch will be co -facilitated by De Novo
and Kearns & West; this partnership has
delivered outstanding General Plan
outreach programs for multiple cities,
including Sausalito, Clovis, San Marcos, San
Jacinto, Indian Wells, and Laguna Niguel.
Outreach for this project must involve inviting community members to first learn about community planning and how planning decisions shape a community so that the City can set clear and realistic expectations. This education will be key for Antioch. For the public to see how their input shapes a process, the community outreach program should provide clear timelines for policy decisions, how input informs these decisions, and the eventual decision -point outcomes.
We have designed an effective and strategic public outreach program for this project that will gather valuable feedback right from the beginning that meets the City’s desired timeline and is translated into a General Plan that the community is not only proud of but has ownership over.
To engage the public in the General Plan Update process, the De Novo team will work collaboratively with Kearns & West to design and implement a comprehensive community outreach program that will be creative and impactful, and will utilize a variety of traditional and modern techniques. Our goal is to market the project in such a way as to garner interest and participation early and often, and to achieve notable participation throughout the entire process.
B34
Antioch General Plan Update and EIR Proposal
30 De Novo Planning Group
Antioch has experienced significant growth and change since the last General Plan Update, particularly to accommodate changing land use planning policies and housing trends. Despite these changes, Antioch has and seeks to continue to maintain its historical heritage and community-focused atmosphere. As a such, an important element of the general plan is to develop strategies and policies that balance ensuring sustainable growth with upholding the unique way of life residents value. Our team will focus on de veloping engagement strategies that allow the team to hear questions about development concepts so that the team can respond with policies pertaining to land use, economic development, circulation, and community health, among others, that help to better integrate new development with existing communities and proactively address concerns. Kearns & West ’s extensive experience leading equitable engagement programs in support of general planning and housing projects across California will be valuable in kicking off the Community Outreach Program.
Kearns & West proposes a multi-pronged
approach to outreach that layer
traditional workshops, focus groups and
online engagement that can connect with
multiple population groups. In addition to
linguistic differences, our team
understands that culture and tradition
impact how communities of people like
to participate . Kearns & West uses
specialized outreach techniques that are woven together through the planning phases with an emphasis in engaging stakeholders early and often. At the core of the outreach strategy must be careful assessment of various stakeholder interests, objectives for public involvement, how to best synchronize the public dialogue with the steps in the planning process, special communication needs for disadvantaged communities and non -English speakers, and the types of engagement activities that will be accessible and attract involvement As part of the project initiation process, Kearns & West typically conducts an outreach assessment with City staff. This provides dedicated time for sta ff and the consultant team to discuss past outreach efforts, confirm goals for this program, generally discuss details such as venues and materials, and identify key stakeholders. It also provides an opportunity to identify the depth of the strategy and tailored outreach tasks.
Following the assessment, Kearns & West will prepare a more refined community outreach program for staff review and approval describing the goals, purpose, and desired outcome of the process; providing an outline of each technique to be used; establishing a timeline; and outlining responsibilities for both the outreach team and the City.
C O MMUN I TY O UTRE ACH P RO G RAM
Following the project kick off meeting, the team will prepare a Community Outreach Program in coordination with the City’s Communication Manager and Planning Manager which will serve as a guide to the community and stakeholder engagement process modeled af ter IAP2 values and principles. The Community Outreach Program will be a dynamic living document that is updated and expanded throughout the General Plan Update process. It will include elements necessary for the consultant team and City staff to create p athways for active public engagement in the General Plan Update. It will incorporate goals for participation from all segments of the community, stakeholder analysis, a communications plan, programs & B35

activities, roles and responsibilities, and a calendar. For each outreach activity, a schedule, date, target group, purpose, and public participation goal. In addition to outlining methods for how residents will be engaged in the process through workshops, focus groups and digital engagement, the plan will provide recommendations on how the City should structure the Visioning process and how to engage the public on the current General Plan themes. The Community Outreach Program will also include tools and methodology to meaningfully engage underrepresented and non-English speaking community members. Specifically, that will include the identification of organizations representing these communities and proposed means for engaging them meaningfully throughout the process.
J O IN T P LAN N IN G C O MMI S SI ON/C I TY CO UN CI L K I CKO FF M E E TI N G It is recommended that the first public meeting be held before the City Council and Planning Commission and will serve as an opportunity for City leadership to meet the consultant team.
The meeting will serve as a “General Plan 101” with a brief overview of the General Plan process, including key steps, and opportunities for public involvement. This will also provide an opportunity for the PC and CC to provide input on key issues, challenges, and priorities for the General Plan Update to address. This meeting helps to set a positive tone for the entire update process, and establishes the working partnership between City leadership and the consultant team.
V I S IO NI N G W O RK S HO PS (2)
At the outset of the General Plan process, two public
Visioning Workshops will be held. The Visioning Workshops will introduce the community to the project and will focus on: 1) communicating the intent of the General Plan Update to the public and inviting public input, 2) identifying the overall vision and core values that will guide the General Plan Update, and 3 ) identifying the community priorities, land use and design preferences of City residents and
stakeholders. The workshop content and feedback
questions will be reproduced in digital format and placed on the project website. This will allow for extended
opportunities for feedback and input. Workshop materials will be provided to City staff in order to facilitate additional staff-led outreach efforts in the community. Our
workshops are structed to be fun, educational, and geared towards soliciting impactful feedback from community
members who may not be comfortable with public speaking. We regularly receive excellent feedback on our activities and we clearly articulate how input and feedback is used to shape a customized General Plan.
C I TY CO UN CI L AN D P LAN N IN G CO MMI S S I ON S TATUS U PD ATE S Throughout the process, De Novo will be available to attend City Council and Planning Commission meetings on a periodic basis to provide an update regarding the project status. It is anticipated that issues will arise during the preparation of the General Plan that will warrant Council and/or Planning Commission input prior to completing the draft goals and policies. In B36
Antioch General Plan Update and EIR Proposal
32 De Novo Planning Group
these situations, De Novo recommends that a report be made to the Council and/or Planning Commission updating them on the status of the General Plan preparation, and requesting direction on any key issues identified by the project team. Our budget and schedule anticipate three status update/check-in meetings with the Council during the General Plan Update process, in addition to public hearings identified below.
S TAK E H O LD E R IN TE RV I E W S AND AG E N CY C ON S ULTATI O N S The De Novo team will consult and meet with stakeholders and agencies throughout the General Plan process. We will refine the list of stakeholders and agencies following the project kick -off meeting with staff. We anticipate that we will request input from many local and regional agencies/organizations. We find that one-on-one and small-group discussions allow us to have direct and candid discussions with subject-area experts and stakeholder groups.
C O MMUN I TY WO RK S HO PS AN D O PE N HO US E (2) We propose to conduct additional community -wide workshops (two) following our initial outreach efforts. We recommend conducting a workshop focused on changes to the land use map, prior to completion of the Draft General Plan. We also suggest conducting a community- wide open house once the Draft General Plan is complete and ready for public review.
Workshop materials will be provided to City staff in order to facilitate additional staff -led outreach efforts in the community. These workshops will be dynamic and interactive, and will serve to educate the community on the content and implementation of the General Plan, as well as receive feedback in a casual setting in order to help our team make strategic refinements and improvements to the Plan. All input will be carefully documented and shared with City leadership for their input and direction.
C O MMUN I TY S URV E Y S AN D P O LLS
Community surveys and polls will be made available on the project website to allow the public an opportunity to participate in the process. De Novo anticipates a general survey to ascertain the community’s general concerns and interests, and a survey specific to land use and growth issues. De Novo will provide the City with a link to place on the website and post on social media platforms that will take the visitor directly to an interactive survey that can be completed on - line. De Novo will prepare and maintain the surveys and will tabulate the results. This approach will help expand the reach and breadth of our public participation program. It allows for self - directed input to be received from community members who may not have the time or inclination to participate in traditional in-person workshops, and provides excellent flexibility to increase local participation and input.

Popup events are an effective engagement tool for
bringing information to community members and asking
for their input in an informal setting . They provide the community with the ability to engage and provide
feedback on their own terms rather than participating
within the confines of a formal workshop. Pop-up events provide an excellent opportunity for the City and project team to spread awareness of the General Plan Update,
educate the community on the importance of the
General Plan, and encourage the co mmunity to
participate in the Update process. Our team will support City staff to develop a strategy for implementing popup events that align with key junctures of the project and highly attended community events. Specifically, this will include developing:
• Event-specific materials.
• Interactive processes for collecting and
documenting the public’s feedback.
• A list of proposed events, such as the Holiday Delites Celebration, Dia de Los Muertos, and Food Truck Thursdays.
• A logistics guide for the events.
Prior to the first popup event, Kearns & West will host a training session to brief City staff on the intent of these events, input sought, and roles and responsibilities for staffing the events, among other considerations. This training will allow City st aff to navigate popup events confidently, in an informed manner, and collect needed feedback from the community. We recommend concentrating the pop-up events within the Visioning Phase and the Land Use Alternatives Phase of the project.
C O MMUN I TY O UTRE ACH S UMMA RY RE PO RT
The project team will prepare a detailed summary report that captures and describes the feedback received from the community throughout the visioning stages of the project. This will include a Working Paper for the Community Perspectives on Land Use Alternatives based on the feedback received during community workshops, pop -up events, focus groups, stakeholder interviews, digital engagement, and any other direct input received from the community. The Working Paper will highlight major themes and considerations raised, and then identify how this input applies to and will shape, the development of the various components of the General Plan Update. This Report is an excellent resource for City staff and City leadership, and will serve as a touch-stone guiding document to be referenced throughout preparation of the General Plan.

and serve as a library of General Plan
documents, including staff reports, meeting agendas, technical reports, and public review drafts.
De Novo will place all public documents (public drafts of studies, technical reports, land use maps, meeting materials, General Plan, Draft EIR, and Final EIR) on the website in .pdf format and all documents will be provided to the City in a format appropriate for publication on the City’s website. The website will also provide a forum to receive comments on the General Plan Update process, and will host a variety of polls and surveys in order to foster increased public participation in the process.
The website will be a dynamic and evolving one -stop-shop for all things related to the General Plan Update, and will help the City demonstrate its commitment to transparency and public involvement.
Our firm owns the domain name: generalplan.org. As such, we would propose to utilize:
Antioch.generalplan.org for this project. The City is encouraged to view some of our other general plan websites, including:
Glenncounty.generalplan.org
Milpitas.generalplan.org
SanMarcos.generalplan.org
G E N E RAL P LAN AD V I S O RY CO MMI TTE E (GPAC) – GO AL AN D P O LI CY DE VE LO PME N T It is our understanding that the City is planning to establish a General Plan Advisory Committee, or GPAC, to oversee development of the General Plan. Our work plan assumes that the City will assemble a GPAC that will serve in an advisory role. The GPAC may include key department heads, Planning Commissioners, Councilmembers, representatives from the community, or some combination of these groups. If so requested, our team can advise the City on the make- up and organization of the GPAC, and we will be prepared to work with whichever size and group make-up the City selects. It is assumed that all GPAC meetings will be open to the public. We will tailor our GPAC work plan to best meet the needs and skill sets of the group that is selected.
For example, a GPAC consisting primarily of community members would be pr ovided with different materials and posed different questions than a group that was made up of senior staff members and/or Councilmembers.
A series of General Plan Advisory Committee meetings will be held throughout the General Plan Update process to develop the General Plan goals, policies, land use map, economic development strategies, and discuss priority issues. These meetings will build on input from the Visioning Workshops and any Council and/or Planning Commission direction regarding issues B39

and opportunities. At the outset, the meetings will be focused on identifying potential land use, economic development, infrastructure, circulation, and other considerations in order to develop the Land Use Map. The subsequent meetings will be focused on goal and policy discussions related to each of the elements/topics to be addressed in the General Plan Update. A total of up to 12 GPAC meetings are assumed in this scope of work . It is further assumed that some GPAC meetings may be able to be conducted virtually.
De Novo’s project manager will facilitate each GPAC meeting. The first meeting will be an introduction to the project, an overview of the process to update the General Plan, and the feedback received from the community during the initial visioning phase. Our team will also help to establish roles and responsibilities for the GPAC, meeting rules, and prepare written materials prior to each meeting. Our team will take meeting notes, and provide written summaries of feedback received during each meeting.
P UB LI C HE ARI N G S
The Draft General Plan and Draft EIR will be presented to the Planning Commission and City Council during the public review period to provide the community an opportunity to comment on the documents. Following completion of the Final EIR and revised Draft General Plan, these documents will be brought to the Planning Commission for a recommendation and to the Council for consideration of adoption. Our scope assumes attendance at up to t hree public hearings for adoption of the General Plan and certification of the EIR.

TASK 3 – EXISTING CONDITIONS REPORT
To prepare a meaningful General Plan, existing conditions must be understood and documented. The Existing Conditions Report will identify development patterns, natural resources, socioeconomic conditions, and environmental constraints in the City and will identify the regulatory environment for each topic. This report will be a resource for the Council, Planning Commission, City staff, and the De Novo team for the General Plan Update and Environmental Impact Report. The Existing Conditions Report will make extensive use of maps, graphics, and user-friendly non-technical terms to help make it accessible to the general public.
The Existing Conditions Report will provide background data and serve as a technical framework, while the General Plan will focus on goals, policies, and implementation. The information collected for the Existing Conditions Report will also be used as the basis for the “existing setting” sections of the General Plan EIR.
Relevant background data, including land use, transportation, infrastructure, utility, agriculture, wildfire, safety, flooding, open space and conservation plans, will be collected and reviewed.
The following topic areas will be addressed in the Existing Conditions Report:
L AN D U SE AN D SO CI OE CO NO MI CS
This chapter will address land use and demographics, including issues related to land use patterns, community character, and economic development. The information in this chapter will provide both a historical and current perspective on land use and is int ended to assist the General Plan update process by providing both historical context and a baseline of existing land use information to be used when formulating and considering amendments to the City’s current land use pattern or when considering alternate growth and land use scenarios for the City.
EPS will assess the underlying socioeconomic and market context for the Antioch General Plan Update (GPU). This technical analysis will cover key demographic, economic, real estate , and fiscal factors affecting the city. The goal of this existing conditions analysis is to provide a collective understanding of local and regional growth trends and economic characteristics , including local competitive attributes and opportunities for the GPU. EPS anticipates that the socioeconomic and real estate existing conditions analysis will occur over the first three to four months of the GPU process.
S O CI OE CO NO MI C TRE N D S
EPS will analyze local socioeconomic characteristics, trends, fiscal factors, and growth projections. The analysis will consider demographic and economic data that inform land use opportunities and constraints in Antioch. The work will inform the GPU team’s stakeholder outreach, provide data for the visioning and planning process, and support land use alternatives and policy considerations for the GPU. Relying on publicly available data (e.g., US Census Bureau, California Department of Finance) as well as proprietary, third -party data sources, EPS will assemble and evaluate populati on and jobs data, including employment by industry. The analysis will look backward and forward ten to twenty years and will consider Antioch, nearby jurisdictions, and the region. EPS will synthesize existing growth projections for the region.

EPS will establish and document real estate market conditions in Antioch. As part of this market assessment, EPS will consider broad market trends as well as detailed information concerning high-performing local and regional real estate, including market positioning, architectural formats, tenanting, amenity offerings, and market value. The real estate market assessment will cover residential, office, industrial, hotel, and retail land uses, evaluating sales data and lease rates, leasing activity, occupancy trends, and recently constructed projects.
C I RCULATI O N
W-Trans will document existing transportation elements in a report including roadways, rail facilities, transit service, existing and proposed bicycle and pedestrian facilities. This will also include local and regional planned improvements to transportat ion facilities. W -Trans will review relevant transportation planning documents describing the Antioch area including the current Circulation Element, Antioch’s current Capital Improvement Program, and relevant regional documents from MTC, the Contra Costa County Congestion Management Program, CCTA, and the East County Action Plan.
W-Trans will prepare a chapter of the Existing Conditions Report related to transportation and circulation, providing summaries of the following topics. • Regulatory framework affecting the circulation network • Descriptions of what Level of Service (LOS) and Vehicle Miles Traveled (VMT) are, how they are used, and how they may influence the General Plan update • Antioch’s existing roadway network including functional classifications • Existing commuter mode choice
• Overview of existing bicycle and pedestrian facilities in the City including key findings from the City’s bicycle plan
• Overview of existing transit operations including local and regional bus service • The City’s historical collision experience for different types of users (autos, pedestrians, and bicyclists) as compared to similar-sized jurisdictions within California • Planned major roadway improvements including those identified in the City’s Capital Improvement Program, current General Plan, and CCTA’s Comprehensive Transportation Plan
• Estimates of total and per capita VMT in Antioch and comparison to countywide and regional averages.

in the City. This chapter will describe existing service levels, available resources, and planned expansion of services and infrastructure. This chapter will identify any known issues or constraints associated with the provision of services.
HAZA RD S , S AFE TY , AN D N O I S E
The Hazards, Safety, and Noise Chapter will discuss existing conditions and federal, state and local regulations related to natural and man -made hazards and public safety issues, including noise.
N O I S E
De Novo will provide the background information for the Noise section, which will include descriptions of the characteristics of sound and noise and a description of transportation, stationary, and construction noise sources within the planning area. We will quantify the existing ambient noise environment within the general plan area through continuous and short -term noise level measurements and through application of accepted noise prediction methodologies.
F I R E H A Z A R D S
Pursuant to SB 1241, the Safety Element must be reviewed and updated to address the risk of fire for land classified as state responsibility areas (SRA), as defined in Section 4102 of the Public Resources Code, and land classified as very high fire hazard severity zones (VHFHSV), as defined in Government Code Section 51177. Our review will consider the advice included in the Office of Planning and Research’s most recent publication of “Fire Hazard Planning, General Plan Technical Advice Series” and shall al so include recommended best practices for fire hazard planning. We will make sure to address the following State requirements as applicable:
• Fire hazard severity zone maps available from the Department of Forestry and Fire Protection.
• Any historical data on wildfires available from local agencies or a reference to where the data can be found.
• Information about wildfire hazard areas that may be available from the United States Geological Survey.
• General location and distribution of existing and planned uses of land in very high fire hazard severity zones and in state responsibility areas, including structures, roads, utilities, and essential public facilities. The location and distribution of plan ned uses of land shall not require defensible space compliance measures required by state law or local ordinance to occur on publicly owned lands or open space designations of homeowner associations.
• Local, state, and federal agencies with responsibility for fire protection, including special districts and local offices of emergency services.

A historical resources records check will be run for the City, through the files of the Central California Information Center of the California Historical Resources Information System. This will provide information on numbers and types of recorded resources in the City.
A check of the Sacred Lands files will be conducted for the City to identify any resources listed with the Native American Heritage Commission. The list provided of groups with concerns in the City will also be used for SB 18 and AB 52 consultation. The various groups and individuals will be solicited, first by mail, with follow up phone calls and other communications to elicit the groups concerns about prehistoric period resources, if desired by the City. We will also consult with the local historical g roups in the region . Cogstone will request a records search for paleontological resources from the Natural History Museum of Los Angeles County (NHMLAC) and/or the University of California Museum of Paleontology (UCMP).
EN V I RO N MEN TAL J US TI CE
Per SB 1000, when a City revises two or more General Plan elements concurrently and has areas defined as “Disadvantaged Communities” (DACs), the City must address environmental justice (EJ) in their General Plan. The California Communities Environmental He alth Screening Tool (“CalEnviroScreen”) version 4.0, developed by the California Environmental Protection Agency (CalEPA), is the recommended method to identify DACs. CalEPA defines a DAC as a “low-income area that is disproportionately affected by environ mental pollution and other hazards that can lead to negative health effects, exposure, or environmental degradation.” CalEnviroScreen assigns composite scores to census tracts in California based on aggregate data from 21 indicators including potential exposures to pollutants, adverse environmental conditions, socioeconomic factors, and the prevalence of certain health co nditions. Census tracts with a composite CalEnviroScreen score of 75 or higher are considered DACs. We will utilize information from the City’s recently-prepared Environmental Justice Element.
The De Novo team will prepare an Administrative Draft Existing Conditions Report for review by City staff. Following staff review, the De Novo team will incorporate comments and prepare the final Existing Conditions Report for use during the General Plan Update and EIR processes.
TASK 4- ISSUES , OPPORTUNITIES , AND LAND USE ALTERNATIVES
IS S UE S AN D O PPO RTUN I TI E S
The De Novo team will prepare a series of key issues and opportunities memos and/or white papers, as a means of focusing the community’s attention on key issues and opportunities that have major policy implications as Anticoh considers how it wants to grow in the next 20 years, while balancing the City’s economic development, housing, and natural resource needs.
Environmental and other constraints to be considered in the General Plan Update process will be identified and depicted on maps and figures. The issues and opportunities memos will summarize and proactively utilize information derived from the community visioning workshops, stakeholder interviews, Existing Conditions Report, City staff observations, and input provided by the Planning Commission, and City Council.

The De Novo team will work closely with City staff to identify targeted updates to the Land Use Map. This may include identification of strategic growth areas, areas suitable for increased density or mixed uses, areas for commercial growth and development, areas in need of conservation and preservation, and areas within the urban/wildland interface.
We anticipate conducting one or more study sessions with the City Council to review and discuss potential land use map and/or density changes within the City. We will also address any relevant land use changes that result from the City’s recent efforts to prepare the 6 th Cycle Housing Element.
Once the land use projections associated with the Preferred Plan have been established, W - Trans will collaborate with CCTA to prepare a General Plan buildout model run that is reflective of the Plan. This model run will be used to formulate development of the General Plan Circulation Diagram and circulation network, and will also be used to support the General Plan CEQA an alysis. The traffic -related improvements identified in the 20 03 Circulation Element (including roadway widenings and intersection modific ations) will be reviewed using output from the newly -performed CCTA travel demand model run to assess whether changes are appropriate; this assessment will be completed at a broad level by comparing cumulative roadway segment volumes to those analyzed in the current Circulation Element, rather than through preparation of extensive operational (LOS) analyses. W -Trans will also work with the project team and Staff in identifying roadways that could benefit from reallocation of roadway width from vehicular to non-auto modes.
W-Trans will partner with Kittelson Associates (Kittelson) to assist with the travel forecasting modeling required for the VMT analysis. W -Trans and Kittelson have successfully partnered on several recent General Plan projects in this same manner. There are currently two travel models covering Antioch and Contra Costa County, the older CCTA Decennial trips based model, and the more current CCTA BiCounty activity based model. The BiCounty model is in the final stages of being certified. Depending on the schedule for the EIR, Kittelson will recommend a model to use in the EIR. Kittelson will request the Buildout Year land uses for the CCTA Model (housing units, population, jobs by six categories) to be added to the Baseline for the GP Update in TAZ format from the City or DeNovo for input into the model. Kittelson will provide the team with a C/CAG TAZ map and a data format template.
Kittelson will prepare an existing condition model validation based on the counts provided by the project team. The validation will focus on the immediate study area and CMP routes. The base year and forecast year for the model will be confirmed for consi stency with the Antioch General Plan Update.
Kittelson will extract project (TAZ based) VMT per capita per SB 743 from the model for the relevant TAZs. W-Trans will compare the VMT per capita to the existing VMT and the Buildout Year No Project VMT.

TASK 5 –GENERAL PLAN UPDATE
The De Novo team is committed to providing the City a General Plan of the highest quality and will actively engage the community to develop a vision for the General Plan, prepare a policy document that reflects the desires of the City, and update the Land Use Map to be consistent with the City’s vision for the future. The General Plan will reflect requirements of the California Government Code that have been introduced since preparation of the adopted General Plan, including changes promulgated by SB 5, SB 18, AB 32, SB 32, AB 162, SB 7, AB 1358, and SB 375, and will also address recent best practices.
In order to streamline the process, we propose to maintain the Existing Conditions Report as a separate document that identifies background conditions. The General Plan document will have a minimum amount of background text, which will allow it to have a streamlined goal and policy structure. Where applicable, goals, policies, and actions will be cross -referenced between sections to reduce overlap and redundancy. The intent of this approach is to provide a General Plan that is easy to use and is not quickl y dated. The General Plan will be a concise, technically accurate, and user -friendly document that reflects the values and priorities of the City of Antioch. The General Plan will include a liberal use of graphics and visual depictions of information, including photographs, tables, matrices, drawings, maps, and other graphics to ensure that the document is easy to understand.
This effort will begin via a robust review of the City’s existing General Plan, and discussions and consultations with City staff regarding what is working, and should be retained, as well as areas that should be revised, augmented, or expanded.
A DM I NI S TR A TI V E D RA F T GE NE R A L PL A N
The General Plan Update will address changes to state law, assess the condition of the City, and provide changes or adjustments necessary to realize the current vision of resident s and stakeholders for the City. De Novo will actively engage residents and stakeholders to provide input regarding the topics addressed in the General Plan.
The existing General Plan will be thoroughly reviewed to determine components that should be carried forward and to identify areas where new goals and policies are needed to address the community’s desires as well as changes to state law since the previous update.
In preparing the General Plan Update, the De Novo team will prepare each element to ensure that all goals, policies, and actions:
• Address requirements of state law;
• Avoid or mitigate potential environmental impacts, or are balanced by social, economic, legal, or other relevant considerations;
• Are grounded in recent and sound community planning and resource conservation trends; and
• Are internally consistent.

It is assumed that the General Plan would include the following stand-alone elements:
1. Land Use
2. Community Image and Design
3. Conservation and Open Space
4. Circulation
5. Public Services and Facilities
6. Noise
7. Administration and Implementation
We will also review and incorporate the recently -adopted Environmental Hazards (Safety) Element and the Environmental Justice Element.
We will also address other key community priorities, such public services and infrastructure, throughout these elements through the inclusion of focused goals, policies, and implementing actions.
We will work collaboratively with City staff to determine whether or not certain topics should be combined, embedded within other elements, or be prepared as stand-alone elements.
ECO N O MI C D E V E LO PME N T ELE ME N T
The City of Antioch seeks to attract, retain, and expand local businesses that generate wealth and community benefits. The Economic Development Element would encapsulate the City’s long-range strategy for economic growth, including goals and policies that address a range of economic topics, such as job growth, economic diversity, real estate investment, fiscal sustainability, and community amenities. The element will complement the “Reinvest Antioch” Economic Development Strategic Plan that was adopted in 2022.
Research and Analysis of Economic Drivers and Trends
Building on Socioeconomic and Real Estate Existing Conditions, EPS will prepare an economics assessment that focuses on local economic drivers and business trends. It is anticipated that local business conditions, economic diversification, employment for l ocal residents, and the evolving retail industry may topics. The effort will highlight local economic data (e.g., sales tax trends, business inventory) and will include subject -specific interviews and analysis. A combination of interview insights, data ana lysis, industry -research, and EPS institutional knowledge will yield key findings. As part of this task, EPS will consider current City economic development initiatives and fiscal factors, including the existing economic development strategy, City revenue characteristics, and anticipated future public sector capital improvements.
EPS proposes coordinating with the City to engage a roster of stakeholders representing various perspectives on economic development in the Antioch area. This group will likely include local employers, business leaders, real estate experts, community group representatives, City B48
Antioch General Plan Update and EIR Proposal
44 De Novo Planning Group
commission members, and elected officials. These stakeholders will function as a key resource for the economic development, providing insight into opportunities and constraints and exploring potential economic development strategies with the consultant tea m. EPS will conduct a series of interviews in person during a two-day visit to Antioch (or via video call). The interviews will be one-on-one or in a focus group setting. These interviews will allow participants to opine on current economic conditions, pro vide input on economic development in the City, and help to shape the GPU Economic Development Element.
Economic Development Policy Options
Building Economic development research and analysis will inform potential economic development strategy and policy recommendations. The possible policies and implementation measures will draw upon EPS’s local research, professional experience, best practic es, and the capacity and resources of the City and its economic development partners. Recommendations will strive to capitalize on identified local strengths and will seek to mitigate local and regional economic challenges. EPS strategies also will focus o n the City’s goals for jobs, housing, fiscal health, and other factors.
Based on background information, interview findings, and targeted research, EPS will synthesize the City’s primary economic strengths, weaknesses, opportunities, and threats (i.e., SWOT assessment). This effort will organize the City’s economic context and local stakeholder input in a way that leads to identification of salient economic development considerations. The SWOT review will offer a digestible overview of economic development potential and will guide identification of potential economic development strategy options.
Relying on the SWOT assessment and building on EPS professional experience in economic development, real estate, and public finance in similar jurisdictions, EPS will define a broad set of possible economic development approaches. In consultation with City staff, potential strategies will be revised and/or refined and organized around the main economic development goals of the City. The agreed -upon economic development efforts will comprise the economic development strategies and policies recommended for inclusion in the Economic Development Element.
EPS will present economic development policy options at a formal meeting, including with the GPAC. Up to three informal check-in calls with the consultant team and staff are also anticipated.
EPS will draft the Economic Development Element for the General Plan. This Element will define the key economic goals and objectives as well as associated policies and implementation measures that will guide the City’s long-term economic development efforts.
AD MI N I S TRATI O N AN D IMPLE ME N TATI O N
General Plan implementation is necessary to achieve the vision laid out by the General Plan. The implementation section will provide feasible, practical implementation methods that ensure the General Plan does not “sit on the shelf” but instead achieves th e goals it sets out. This section will help ground the General Plan in reality and assist in ensuring that is produces real results.
The implementation program will identify how each implementation measure will be implemented, including the City department responsible for implementation, the funding source(s), and timing of implementation. The De Novo team will work closely with City staff to prepare this section.

De Novo will be available to present the Draft General Plan and Draft Env ironmental Impact Report in a public workshop and/or Planning Commission and City Council meetings to provide the decision-makers and community with information regarding the intent and structure of the draft documents and to receive comments on the draft documents.
FI NA L GE NE R A L P LA N
We anticipate that a series of public hearings will be held by the Planning Commission and City Council to consider adoption of the General Plan. As changes are requested by these decision - marking bodies, we will prepare modified General Plan text that will be provided as attachments to the staff report for consideration. De Novo will prepare a draft staff report and appropriate attachments prior to each hearing. De Novo will be available to present the General Plan and Final Environmental Impact Report at Planning Commission and City Council public hearings.
Based on Council’s direction at the adoption of the General Plan, De Novo will edit the General Plan to be consistent with any revisions approved by the Council and will prepare the final version of the General Plan.

This analysis will be performed consistent with State CEQA Guidelines and be based on a l ist of known projects in the region as well as development forecasts contained in the City, as well as consideration of General Plan updates in the region. A table summarizing projected regional growth will be provided. A clear cumulative setting for each environmental topic will be described in the Draft EIR.
C H APTE R 5 O TH E R CEQA RE Q UI RE ME N TS
The chapter will address other topics required by CEQA including significant irreversible environmental effects, a summary of significant and unavoidable impacts of the project, identification of environmental areas that would have no or less than significant impact, and an evaluation of the project related to each of the mandatory findings of significance identified at Section 15065 of the CEQA Guidelines.

De Novo will coordinate with City staff in the development of up to three alternatives to the proposed project, including the CEQA-required No Project Alternative. The alternatives analysis in the Draft EIR will focus on alternatives that avoid or minimize environmental effects as compared to the proposed General Plan Update. T hese alternatives will be described qualitatively and quantitatively, and contrasted with the proposed project in terms of the extent that the alternatives can achieve project objecti ves or reduce adverse impacts. It is anticipated that the alternatives analysis will be closely coordinated with General Plan Update planning work and will address issues of concern identified by the community.
F IN A L EIR AND M ITIG A TION M ON ITORIN G A N D R E PORT IN G P ROG RA M At the conclusion of the Draft EIR public review period, the De Novo team will respond to all written comments received by the City. Upon completion, copies of the Administrative Final EIR will be forwarded to the City for review. The Final EIR document will include the comment letters, responses, and revisions to the Draft (text to be revised will be shown as an excerpt demarcated with underline for new text and strikethrough for deleted text) will comprise the Final Environmental Impact Report (Final EIR), which will be a separately bound document.
With respect to the Final EIR and Response to Comments, the De Novo team anticipates 10 comment letters of normal detail (two to three pages in length), based upon our prior experience with projects of similar scope. Excess comments and/or complex comments that require additional technical analysis will be considered outside of this scope o f work and cost estimate. We also assume one round of City review of the Administrative Final EIR prior to public release.

The Final EIR will include a comprehensive Mitigation Monitoring and Reporting Program (MMRP) pursuant to Section 21081.6 of the Public Resources Code. De Novo will draft the MMRP using the information contained within the environmental analysis, including the specific mitigation measures, and how the mitigation measures will be incorporated into the General Plan Update. It is intended that each mitigation measure will be incorporated into the General Plan as a policy or implementation program, and that the re will not be separate measures to monitor and enforce following adoption of the General Plan. As described under Task 3, the General Plan will include an implementation program that identifies how each implementation measure will be implemented, includin g the City department responsible for implementation, the funding source(s), and timing of implementation.
CEQA F IN D IN G S OF F ACT /S TA TE ME N T OF OVE RRID IN G C ON S ID E RA TION S CEQA Findings of Fact/Statement of Overriding Considerations (Findings) will be prepared that identify each potentially significant and significant impact, describe mitigation for the impact, and the resultant level of significance after mitigation. The Findings will identify each alternative and, if the alternative was not selected a s the proposed project, identify why the alternative was not feasible and considerations for not selecting the alternative. For each significant and unavoidable impact, the Findings will identify economic, legal, social, technical, or other defensible reasons why the project should be approved in light of the significant effects of the project.
TASK 7- MEETINGS , HEARINGS , AND PROJECT MANAGEMENT
Our management team will attend all of the workshops and meetings, and will also author the Existing Conditions Report, General Plan, and EIR documents.
Our internal management procedures include: regular check -ins with subconsultant teams, internal weekly conference calls with the management team from De Novo and each subconsultant (as relevant to the timing of the task of each subconsultant), weekly upda tes to the task list, including internal deliverables necessary to meet our deliverables to the City, and establishment of a secure online file sharing site to assure that all background documents, technical reports, updated schedules, and approach memos a re readily available to each team member.
We will closely coordinate with the City through each part of the process. Steps we take to assure timely performance include: regular project calls with the City, monthly status reports, and a project task list that we update each month with the status of each task and deliverable, including subconsultant deliverables. This approach ensures open lines of communication, transparency in our work effort, and accountability. We are committed to completing this project on schedule and within budget and will tak e all appropriate steps to ensure that the project is managed effectively.

TASK 8- ZONING CODE UPDATE
One of the key components of a successful Zoning Code update for the City will be to ensure that the Zoning Code is consistent with and furthers the implementation of the General Plan update. The General Plan update will include action items that require c hanges or additions to the Zoning Code. Additionally, the General Plan Land Use Map may include new and redefined land use designations, which may require changes and updates to the City’s existing zoning designations and allowed uses. We will apply our e xtensive and detailed knowledge of the City developed during the General Plan update to this project, and ensure that the City receives a Zoning Code that furthers the goals and vision developed for the General Plan.
The Zoning Code update will focus on changes to the existing Code identified by staff, input provided by the GPAC, changes in applicable State law since the last Code was prepared, and identification of changes required to ensure the Code is consistent with the General Plan update.
The resulting product will be a Zoning Code that is well organized and provides clear and understandable guidance to City residents, staff, and elected officials. Based on our discussions with City staff, we understand that a full overhaul of the existing Zoning Code may be warranted and desired.
Our work effort for this project will include a comprehensive update to the City’s Zoning Map.
The Zoning Map update will ensure that parcels have consistent designations for both Land Use and Zoning, and that the Zoning Map reflects the land use goals an d priorities identified in the General Plan. The City will be provided with all updated GIS files at the end of this process, which will allow City staff to continue to utilize this data well after our work efforts have been completed.
It is anticipated that the work program for the Zoning Code Update will be further refined once the Draft General Plan is completed. The content and policy direction contained in the General Plan Update will significantly influence the scope and content of the Zoning Code Update.
