General Plan Advisory Committee Information
This memo provides information for persons interested in being appointed to the Antioch General Plan Advisory Committee (GPAC).
Introduction
The City of Antioch has embarked on a multi-year process to update its General Plan. The Antioch General Plan is the City’s overarching policy guidance document and provides direction on a myriad of topics such as land use, housing, transportation, economic development, resource conservation, community health, parks, and open space.
The City of Antioch has hired a professional planning consulting firm, De Novo Planning Group, to assist the City with its General Plan Update. The City Council will also form a General Plan Advisory Committee (GPAC) to assist with preparation of the General Plan Update.
The GPAC will serve as one of the primary channels for the community to provide input and make recommendations on the General Plan Update. Participation by members appointed to the GPAC is temporary; the roles and responsibilities of its members will terminate with City Council adoption of the General Plan.
The charge of the GPAC is to:
1. Ensure City staff and the consultant team are aware of and understand community concerns, values and expectations.
2. Assist City staff and the consultant team in identifying critical issues that should be addressed in the planning process.
3. Identify areas of existing or potential conflicts and find ways to constructively resolve them.
4. Capitalize on the creative ideas and insights within the Antioch community for input into the General Plan.
5. Keep community organizations and interested citizens informed about the status of the planning process.
6. Provide recommendations to the Planning Commission and City Council supporting the General Plan.
The City Council intends to form a GPAC that represents a cross -section of the community, including residents and neighborhood groups, the business community, civic organizations, community-based organizations, development interests, and resource conservation interests. By City of Antioch
General Plan Advisory Committee Information
2 ensuring that these groups are represented on the GPAC, the City of Antioch can be confident that a diverse range of viewpoints and interest areas will be considered as part of the General Plan Update process, ultimately resulting in a contemporary General Plan that best represents the community’s vision for the future.
GPAC Formation and Expectations
• Seven GPAC members from the general public (5 regular and 2 alternate) will be appointed by the City Council, with appointments anticipated to occur in March 2026. The committee will also include two City Council members and two Planning Commissioners. • The GPAC will meet up to a maximum of 12 times over the course of approximately 18 months. Meetings will generally occur once per month, but there may be months when no meetings are held.
• The first GPAC meeting is anticipated to be held in April 2026, and meetings will run through late 2027. At the first meeting staff will recommend a regular meeting date for the GPAC which will likely be either the first Tuesday or first Thursday of the month. • GPAC meetings will primarily be in-person evening meetings at City Hall, and will likely last 2-3 hours.
• GPAC members will be provided with agendas and reading materials prior to each meeting, and will be expected to attend all meetings prepared to discuss the topics identified on the agenda. Reading materials for each meeting may be 50 pages or more (including maps, tables, and graphics) and will include materials from the General Plan Existing Conditions Report, the General Plan community outreach results, and portions of the City’s existing General Plan.
• Meetings will be facilitated by City staff and the consultant team, and the GPAC will operate in the spirit of consensus. There will not be roll-call votes, and differing points of view will be recorded and presented to the City Council. The meetings wil l be structured as roundtable discussions, with defined opportunities for members of the public to provide comments.
• Regardless of the individual background or professional affiliation of a GPAC member, all members will be expected to participate in all meetings and provide input and feedback on all topics presented to the GPAC for discussion. The City is looking for full participants, not just individuals advocating for, or interested in, a single issue or topic. • GPAC meetings are generally anticipated to follow the following structure and address the following topics:
City of Antioch
General Plan Advisory Committee Information
3 o The first meeting will provide an overview of the GPAC’s role, information on requirements for General Plans, a summary of feedback received to date from the community, and a discussion of high-level goals, priorities, and challenges for the Antioch community.
o The following 3-4 meetings will focus primarily on the topic of land use. The GPAC will discuss and provide input on growth patterns, development type, density, land use map changes, and other similar land use-related topics. The intent will be to develop a working draft of the updated Land Use Map with correspondin g d
esignations and densities.
o T
he subsequent 5-6 meetings will focus on other topics and issues covered under the General Plan, such as traffic/mobility, economic development, community health and wellness, utilities and public services, etc. Many of these topics overlap with land use, and with each other.
o The final two meetings will provide GPAC members with an opportunity to revie w
a
nd provide input on the entire Draft General Plan document prior to it being released for public review and comment.
• There will be several community workshops and public meetings held throughout the General Plan Update process, and GPAC members are encouraged to attend as many of these as possible.

8 Statements and opinions expressed about the next 6-12 months were developed based on our independent research with information obtained from Bloomberg Finance L.P. and FactSet. The views expressed within this material constitute the perspective and judgment of PFM Asset Management at the time of distribution (12/31/2025) and are subject to change. Information is obtained from sources generally believed to be reliable and available to the public; however, PFM Asset Management cannot guarantee its accuracy, completeness, or suitability.
Monetary Policy (Global):
• The Fed cut rates by 50 bps in Q4 but noted
continuing challenges to achieving its dual mandate
of maximum employment and stable prices.
• The “dot plot” indicates 25 bps of projected cuts in
both 2026 and 2027, but the wide dispersion
underscores growing differences of opinion.
• Markets view policy risks as skewed towards
additional easing assuming a more dovish Chair
takes office in mid-2026 as expected.
• Most major central banks have continued easing
with the BOJ being the notable exception.
Economic Growth (Global):
• Strong consumer and business spending and
steadier trade dynamics continue to fuel economic
growth.
• The effects of U.S. government shutdown are
expected to be temporary and fully recouped in
1Q26.
• Benefits from the tax and reconciliation bill and
increases in anticipated AI capex are expected to
support growth in 2026.
Inflation (U.S.):
• While headline inflation moved lower in Q4,
significant gaps in data collection due to the U.S.
government shutdown likely biased the data lower.
• Lower shelter inflation continues to support
disinflation going forward although goods prices
continue to experience tariff passthroughs.
• Fed Chair Powell noted inflation excluding tariffs is near 2%, suggesting the Fed is looking through
these effects.
Financial Conditions (U.S.):
• Financial conditions eased further as corporate
earnings exceeded expectations and tariff concerns
abated.
• Equities reached new all-time highs, credit spreads
remain tight, and volatility remains low.
• Fiscal uncertainty and geopolitical risks could
reintroduce tighter financial conditions over the next
6-12 months.
Consumer Spending (U.S.):
• Consumer confidence sank given a more
pessimistic views of the labor market, particularly
among lower-income cohorts.
• Consumer activity remained resilient through the
holiday shopping season, highlighting the
disconnect between sentiment and actual activity.
• Consumer spending is dominated by higher-income
cohorts who benefit from elevated wage growth,
strong equity markets, and home price appreciation.
• A significant correction in the equity market or a
material slowdown in the labor market are the
largest threats to consumer spending.
Labor Markets (U.S.):
• Labor market conditions continued to cool with net
new job creation close to zero with gains
concentrated in the healthcare sector.
• The breakeven employment level to keep pace with
labor force growth has fallen. Initial jobless claims
and layoff rates remains low, easing some concerns
over labor weakness.
• The unemployment rate continued to tick higher,
while job openings declined and the quits rate
remain subdued, signaling reduced worker
leverage.
• Wage growth continues to exceed inflation,
supporting consumer spending.

Glossary
Accrued Interest: Interest that is due on a bond or other fixed income security since the last interest payment was made.
Agencies: Federal agency securities and/or Government-sponsored enterprises.
Amortized Cost: The original cost of the principal of the security is adjusted for the amount of the periodic reduction of any discount or premium from the purchase date until the date of the report. Discount or premium with respect to short-term securities (those with less than one year to maturity at time of issuance) is amortized on a straight line basis. Such discount or premium with respect to longer-term securities is amortized using the constant yield basis.
Asset-Backed Security: A financial instrument collateralized by an underlying pool of assets – usually ones that generate a cash flow from debt, such as loans, leases, credit card balances, and receivables.
Bankers’ Acceptance: A draft or bill or exchange accepted by a bank or trust company. The accepting institution guarantees payment of the bill as well as the insurer.
Commercial Paper: An unsecured obligation issued by a corporation or bank to finance its short-term credit needs, such as accounts receivable and inventory.
Contribution to Total Return: The weight of each individual security multiplied by its return, then summed for each sector to determine how much each sector added or subtracted from the overall portfolio performance.
Effective Duration: A measure of the sensitivity of a security’s price to a change in interest rates, stated in years.
Effective Yield: The total yield an investor receives in relation to the nominal yield or coupon of a bond. Effective yield takes into account the power of compounding on investment returns, while nominal yield does not.
FDIC: Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation. A federal agency that insures bank deposits to a specified amount.
Interest Rate: Interest per year divided by principal amount and expressed as a percentage.
Market Value: The value that would be received or paid for an investment in an orderly transaction between market participants at the measurement date.
Maturity: The date upon which the principal or stated value of an investment becomes due and payable.
Negotiable Certificates of Deposit: A CD with a very large denomination, usually $1 million or more, that can be traded in secondary markets.
Par Value: The nominal dollar face amount of a security.
Pass-through Security: A security representing pooled debt obligations that passes income from debtors to its shareholders. The most common type is the mortgage-backed security.

It is recommended that the City Council adopt a resolution awarding a contract for professional auditing services to LSL, LLP Certified Public Accountants for an amount not to exceed $345,210 for a term of four fiscal years, with an option to extend an additional two years for a cost not to exceed $179,920, and authorizing the City Manager to execute the agreement in a form approved by the City Attorney.
FISCAL IMPACT
The contract will begin for the current fiscal year ending June 30, 2026, and extend through the fiscal year ending June 30, 2029, with an option to extend for an additional two years for the fiscal years ending June 30, 2030 and June 30, 2031. The four-year total not to exceed cost of the contract is $345,210, with the additional two years not to exceed cost of $179,920. This would be a total of $525,130 for a six-year term if the extension is exercised. Fiscal year 2026 audit costs are included in the Finance Department General Fund budget. The annual cost for fiscal years 2027 through 2029, and the option to extend an additional two years if exercised, will be included within future budget proposals. The not to exceed costs include the assumption that a Board of State and Community Corrections (“BSCC”) Audit for the CalVIP Grant and Transportation Development Act (“TDA”) Audit are needed for each fiscal year, however, the costs are outlined as “Optional or As-Needed Component Services” in the attached dollar cost bid (Attachment B). The City will not incur a cost if the audit (s) are not required in any such fiscal year. A 5% discount will be applied to the annual audit fee should the City pay the annual cost up front each fiscal year. Should the City choose this manner of payment, up to $16,946 in savings could be recognized during the four-year term, inclusive of the additional audits each fiscal year.
DISCUSSION
State law requires that all general purpose local governments have financial statements prepared at the close of each fiscal year by a firm of licensed certified public accountants.
Antioch City Council Report
February 24, 2026 Agenda Item #E 2
The City’s prior contract for professional auditing services was completed with the audit for the fiscal year ending June 30, 2025 and as such, Request for Proposal (RFP) 946- 1105-25F for Professional Auditing Services was released on November 5, 2025.
Six firms responded to the RFP: LSL, LLP Certified Public Accountants; Vasquez and Company LLP; Moore Business Management Group Inc.; The Pun Group Accountants and Advisors, Forvis Mazars, LLP and Clifton Larson Allen LLP. The City Manager and Finance Department staff reviewed each technical and cost proposal submitted first for adherence with proposal guidelines, and then assigned a score based upon each firm’s expertise, experience, audit approach and cost. Interviews were conducted with three finalists based upon this review.
The selection criterion was not solely cost based. Experience with public sector clients with engagements similar in size and scope to the City, technical and accounting knowledge, quality and expertise of firm personnel assigned to the contract, and breadth of services and support the audit firm is available to provide to the City were all considered.
It is the City Manager’s and Finance Staff’s recommendation to enter into a contract with LSL, LLP Certified Public Accountants for a four-year term, with the option to extend an additional two years.

STAFF REPORT TO THE CITY COUNCIL
DATE: Regular Meeting of February 24, 2026
TO: Honorable Mayor and Members of the City Council
SUBMITTED BY: Frank B Appiah, Consultant Traffic Engineer
APPROVED BY: Scott Buenting, Public Works Director/City Engineer
SUBJECT: Resolution of Support for a Transportation Development Act Article 3 Grant for School Pedestrian Safety Improvements at Black Diamond Middle School and Carmen Dragon Elementary;
P.W. 124-3
RECOMMENDED ACTION
It is recommended that the City Council adopt the attached Resolution of Support and authorize the filing of a grant application to Metropolitan Transportation Commission requesting an allocation of Transportation Development Act Article 3 Pedestrian/Bicycle project funds in the amount of $100,000 for pedestrian safety improvements near Black Diamond Middle School and Carmen Dragon Elementary School.
FISCAL IMPACT
Adoption of this resolution will allow the City to receive up to $100,000 in Transportation Development Act funding for Antioch School Pedestrian Safety Improvements. A $40,000 in-kind local match is noted on the grant application (see Exhibit “2” to the Resolution).
The local match will include funding for project design, grant application preparation, administration and installation of improvements . The Fiscal Year 2025/26 Capital Improvements Budget includes $100,000 in Gas Tax Funds for school pedestrian safety improvements such as these, and as such the General Fund will not be impacted.
DISCUSSION
Staff recommends that the City Council approve the submission of an application for Transportation Development Act (“TDA”) Article 3 Pedestrian/Bicycle Program funds to implement pedestrian safety improvements. The proposed pedestrian and bicycle safety enhancements are recommended near Black Diamond Middle School and Carmen Dragon Elementary School. Both schools were chosen based on discussions with Antioch Unified School District as the priorities and coincides with the City’s budget. The work includes new signage and striping, as well as upgraded high-visibility crosswalks within the school zones . These improvements positively impact student safety, especially during pickup and drop-off times. The work is expected to begin in the summer of 2026 and is expected to be completed by the fall of 2026.

The Safe Route to School Program identified two of the twenty -five schools in the Antioch School district to receive improvements through this grant. After completing a school safety assessment with all 25 schools at the end of the school year ending 2025, the city prioritized the schools based on a combination of need, effectiveness of proposed benefits, and frequency of public requests. Black Diamond Middle School and Carmen Dragon Elementary were both at the top of the prioritization list and the two schools we would like to implement the improvements first.
Antioch staff prepared SR2S Safety Assessment memos to share with each of the 25 schools and superintendent. The memos were well received and supported by the schools, school district and the student guardians. All are eager to get the improvements implemented. Improvements include but not limited to striping, signage, enhanced crosswalks, rapid flashing beacons, and various traffic calming measures.
The grant will be used for Construction. Antioch will also fund an in -kind match of $ 20,000 towards its consultant and maintenance staff for installation, construction management and inspection, coordination with the schools and school district, and traffic control services. Additionally, thermoplastic striping equipment will be needed and purchased with City funds at approximately $20,000.

UBJECT: Resolution Annexing Certain Parcels into CFD No. 2018-02 (Police Protection)
RECOMMENDED ACTION
It is recommended that the City Council adopt a resolution Annexing Certain Parcels into Community Facilities Districts CFD No. 2018-02 (Police Protection).
F
ISCAL IMPACT
There is no immediately projected financial impact. Long term, the property owners in this subdivision will contribute to police services through CFD No. 2018- 02 (Police Protection). Unlike an Assessment District for which a “general benefit” is contributed by the City, a Community Facilities District (“CFD”) does not require a contribution from the City. Instead, the CFD generates revenues for the City that may be used to fund additional eligible public services, above and beyond those already provided to the project site. The actual use of the funds on an annual basis is at the discretion of the city based on the funds generated by the CFD (constrained by the tax per unit) and the required services for the year. The CFD simply provides an additional funding source to offset the cost of the new public services demanded by new development. The Fiscal Year 2025/26 tax rate is $585.33 per unit which, at the build out of the project (220 units) would generate approximately $128,773 per year to fund additional public services.
DI
SCUSSION
A CFD is a special taxing district established by a local government agency to finance public infrastructure, facilities, and, in some cases, ongoing public services needed to support new development. CFDs are commonly used to fund improvements such as streets, utilities, public safety facilities, parks, schools, and other community -serving infrastructure. A services CFD is typically established to ensure that the City recovers the incremental costs associated with providing public safety and other municipal services required by the new development. This approach helps maintain balanced, long- term service levels without placing additional financial strain on the General Fund.

TANK ASSESSMENTS
The goal is to complete potable water tank assessments to determine sound maintenance strategies and plans for maintaining the structures. Surveys of both the internal and external surfaces of the potable water tanks shall be completed. Underwater surveys will be performed while the potable water tanks are full of water using special underwater techniques and American Water Works Association (AWWA) C652 sanitary procedures for potable water tanks.
The focus of the inspections will be to evaluate the current condition of the interior and exterior coating systems and the level of corrosion on the tanks. The evaluation will include visual observations, dry film thickness (OFT) measurements, adhesion testing, and potentially corrosion pit depth and/or ultrasonic (UT) testing, if applicable.
During the evaluations, particular attention will be paid to the condition of the following critical areas:
• Roof
• Roof Structure Shell
• Tank Bottom
• Overflow Pipe/Weir
• Drains/Sumps Inlets/Outlets
• Piping
• Vents/Screens
• Shell and Roof Chine/Joints
• Weld or Bolt Connections
• Ladders/Safety Climbs
• Vandal Deterrents
• Platforms/Railings
• Manways Hatches Gaskets
• Ringwall/Anchor Bolts
• Grade/Tank Crevices
• Water Level Indicators
• Cathodic Protection (CP) Equipment/Components
ASSESSMENT REPORT/ RECOMMENDATIONS
The deliverable will be a written narrative and color pictorial description of the condition of each potable water tank, along with specific recommendations for coatings, cathodic protection (CP), and structural considerations, where applicable.
Recommendations for maintenance work will be based on the level of corrosion and the condition of potable water tank coatings and cathodic protection (CP) systems. Corrosion assessments will be based on the amount of change from the original tank design.
The life expectancy of existing coating systems, as well as projected corrosion rates on the structures, will be used to determine future maintenance strategies. Recommendations for coatings work will be based on paint or lining percentage of failure, ability to be recoated, film heavy metal content, estimated remaining life of the system(s), and/or concerns with any impressed current cathodic protection (CP) systems.
