STAFF REPORT – CITY COUNCIL MEETING
TO: Honorable Mayor and City Council Members
FROM: Keira A. Vink, Human Resources and Administrative Services Director PREPARER: Keira A. Vink, Human Resources and Administrative Services Director DATE: June 4, 2025
TITLE: Approve a Revised Hiring and Recruitment Incentive Program Administrative Policy to Include Out of State Lateral Police Officers and the Classifications of Sergeant, Lieutenant, and Police Chief.

RECOMMENDATION:

It is recommended that the Council approve a revised Hiring and Recruitment Incentive Program Administrative Policy, allowing out of state lateral police officers and the classifications of Sergeant, Lieutenant, and Police Chief to be eligible for the lateral Police Officer hiring incentive.

INTRODUCTION:

Arcata Police Department needs a continuous infusion of sworn personnel to maintain patrol and specialty positions, which include police officers assigned to Valley West, Downtown, Parks, Forests, and the Marsh; and to provide the necessary backfill for retirements, promotions, and resignations. Like many Public Safety Departments throughout the state and nationwide, the Arcata Police Department (APD) has a shortage of sworn police officers.

Hiring bonus programs have become part of the current market conditions for Police Departments.

The current cost of supporting a Police Cadet Candidate through the Academy and field training is estimated at $65,000. The City currently offers a $50,000 hiring bonus for lateral police officers. The overall cost of paying a $50,000 hiring bonus versus sponsoring a Police Cadet is a savings of at least $15,000 to the City and provides independently working officers much sooner for the community. The City would like to expand the opportunity to out of state qualifying laterals and include the classifications of Sergeant, Lieutenant, and Chief of Police.

BACKGROUND:

Since 2023, the Hiring and Recruitment Incentive Program has assisted the Arcata Police Department in recruiting six (6) lateral Police Officers which have been vital to maintaining the core service of public safety to the community on a 24/7 basis.

DISCUSSION:

Each State has their own set of standards and training for peace officers which all officers must meet to work as a law enforcement officer in that State. Many of the requirements mirror or are

substantially similar to the California Peace Officer’s Standards and Training (POST) requirements for sworn peace officers. Although the requirements in each State may vary, an officer who is experienced working in another State as a peace officer has many transferable skills, and when they pass the California POST Requalification Course or possess a California Post Basic Course Waiver, can very quickly work autonomously as a sworn officer.

With the upcoming key retirements at the Arcata Police Department, there will be limited experienced officers to take available positions to lead the department. Due to this experience shortage, the City would like to expand the lateral police hiring incentive to the classifications of Sergeant, Lieutenant, and Police Chief in order to garner a wider candidate pool. The City will continue to support, train, and grow internal candidates to make them ready for current and future promotional opportunities.

BUDGET/FISCAL IMPACT:

Salary savings for vacant positions in the Police Department will continue to be used to fund the bonuses.

RECOMMENDED COUNCIL ACTION:

Motion to approve a revised Hiring and Recruitment Incentive Program Administrative Policy, allowing out of state lateral police officers and the classifications of Sergeant, Lieutenant, and Police Chief to be eligible for the lateral Police Officer hiring incentive. Consent Calendar vote.

Administrative Policies and Procedures
Subject: Hiring and Recruitment Incentive Program
Effective Date: June 18, 2025 (Revised)
Originating Department: City Manager's Office/Police Department I. PURPOSE

The purpose of the Hiring and Recruitment Incentive Program is to provide the City Manager with additional recruitment tools to allow the City to be more competitive in attracting qualified, performance-oriented candidates for specific classifications that are deemed “difficult to recruit”. These classes are primarily in areas of Police Officer and Dispatcher, and may be added or deleted from the list, upon approval by the City Manager based on organization need. “Difficult to recruit” classes are further defined as those that are highly competitive in the labor market due to specialized skills and/or certifications, and/or those classes in which there is a high turnover which significantly impacts the City’s efforts to recruit staff to provide public services.

II. ADMINISTRATIVE AUTHORITY
The City Manager is authorized to approve hiring and recruitment incentives during active recruitments, and to approve the classifications eligible to receive such incentives.

Recruitment incentives defined in this policy are provided by the City of Arcata outside the negotiation process and may be modified or discontinued at any time at the City’s discretion.

The City Manager shall exercise final authority regarding interpretation of program policies and eligibility for incentive payments consistent with the intent of this program.

Revised 06/2025

STAFF REPORT – CITY COUNCIL MEETING
TO: Honorable Mayor and City Council Members
FROM: David Loya, Community Development Director
PREPARER: David Loya, Community Development Director
DATE: June 18, 2025
TITLE: Reassign Planning Commission Chair, Scott Davies, to a Resident Member; and Reappoint Commissioner Amanda Hickey to the Planning Commission as an At Large Member for a Term Expiring March 31, 2027, Pursuant to Arcata Municipal Code Sec. 2202.B.

RECOMMENDATION:

Staff recommends that the Council reassign Planning Commission Chair, Scott Davies, from live/work in the planning area to a resident member and reappoint Commissioner Amanda Hickey to the Planning Commission as an at large member effective July 1, 2025, for a term ending March 31, 2027.

INTRODUCTION:

Pursuant to Arcata Municipal Code Sec. 2202.B, the Planning Commission shall comprise minimally five residents. The two remaining members may live or work in the planning area. Chair Davies will be an Arcata resident starting July 1, 2025. This opens an at large member position.

Commissioner Hickey recently moved out of Arcata and resigned her appointment. Commissioner Hickey still works in Arcata and wishes to continue serving on the Planning Commission. This action would reassign Chair Davies and reappoint Commissioner Hickey effective July 1, 2025.

DISCUSSION:

Commissioner Hickey has contributed to Commission discussions during her short tenure. She filled one of the five resident appointments established in the Municipal Code. She recently moved out of the City and was forced to resign her Planning Commission appointment.

Serendipitously, Chair Davies secured housing inside the City shortly after Commissioner Hickey resigned. His residency frees up the at large position. Since Ms. Hickey works in the City, she may be reappointed as an at large member. Staff strongly encourages the Council to do so.

ENVIRONMENTAL REVIEW (CEQA):

The action is not a project as defined by the California Environmental Quality Act (CEQA). As such, the decision to reappoint is not subject to CEQA.

BUDGET/FISCAL IMPACT:

None.

RECOMMENDED COUNCIL ACTION:

Motion to reassign Planning Commission Chair, Scott Davies, from live/work in the planning area to a resident member and reappoint Commissioner Amanda Hickey to the Planning Commission as an at large member effective July 1, 2025, for a term ending March 31, 2027. Consent Calendar vote.

STAFF REPORT – CITY COUNCIL MEETING
TO: Honorable Mayor and City Council Members
FROM: Emily Sinkhorn, Director of Environmental Services PREPARER: Emily Sinkhorn, Director of Environmental Services DATE: June 18, 2025
TITLE: Approve Purchase of Water Meter Boxes from PACE Supply Corp. in the Amount of $143,907.12; and Approve Necessary and Associated Related Actions.

RECOMMENDATION:

It is recommended that the Council approve the purchase of water meter boxes from PACE Supply Corp. in the amount of $143,907.12; authorize the City Engineer to increase the purchasing amount by up to 10% to allow for any unforeseen contingencies; and authorize the City Manager to execute all applicable documents.

BACKGROUND:

The City is about to start construction on the Steel Waterline Replacement Project with the purpose of replacing old and unreliable steel and asbestos cement waterlines with new pipes in order to decrease the annual costs and effort associated with repairing defective waterlines and extend the life of the City’s water distribution system. The project scope also includes replacement of older water meters within the project area with remote-read water meters in order to modernize the City’s water distribution system, enhance efficiency for water meter reading and reduce water loss. Remote-read water meters require a polymer water meter box in order to be read, as concrete boxes block connection. To expedite the project and reduce overall costs, staff recommends to pre-purchase ahead of construction priority equipment that has longer lead times for delivery. Last September the City Council approved the pre-purchase of three Cla-Val valve/vault systems and in January approved the pre-purchase of water meters which will be installed as part of the Waterline Replacement Project.

DISCUSSION:

The Waterline Replacement Project is a high priority project under the City’s Capital Improvement Program. On April 2, 2025, the City Council authorized an interfund loan to support funding for the Waterline Replacement Project, and on April 16 approved a construction bid award to implement the project. The City pre-purchasing equipment for the contractor to install provides a cost savings as well as expedites delivery.

The City is moving towards standardizing water meter infrastructure by planned retrofitting and purchasing one brand (Badger, available through PACE Supply) of remote read water meters. The City has installed Badger remote read water meters in other areas of the water distribution system.

These meters have been reliable, save time and cost to read, enable real-time data review to detect potential water leaks early, and staff are content with the performance and service support provided.

The purpose of purchasing water meters from the same manufacturer is to ensure operating equipment that will save time and operational costs by creating a consistent system which can be maintained with minimal like parts and similar maintenance/repair requirements. This purchase of meter boxes and lids are compatible with the Badger remote read water meters the City is installing throughout the City.

ENVIRONMENTAL REVIEW (CEQA):

The California Environment Quality Act (CEQA) determination for the project is a categorical exemption pursuant to CEQA Guidelines:
 Section 15301 (b) existing facilities of both investor and publicly-owned utilities used to provide electric power, natural gas, sewerage, or other public utility services and  15302 (c) replacement or reconstruction of existing utility systems and/or facilities involving negligible or no expansion of capacity.

BUDGET/FISCAL IMPACT:

The budget for this equipment purchase is within the project budget for the Steel Waterline Replacement Project and is allocated within the draft 2025/26 Fiscal Year budget to implement the Waterline Replacement Project. The payment for these purchases will not be made until the materials are delivered which will be after July 1, 2025.

The budget for purchase of this equipment needed for the Waterline Replacement Project is as follows:

Account Number Amount Account Name
661-70-63-57500 $143,907.12 Water Fund, Capital-Underground Facilities RECOMMENDED COUNCIL ACTION:

Consent Calendar vote.

Motion to:

1. Approve purchase of water meter boxes from PACE Supply Corp. in the amount of $143,907.12;

2. Authorize the City Engineer to increase the purchasing amount by up to 10% to allow for any unforeseen contingencies; and

3. Authorize the City Manager to execute all applicable documents.

STAFF REPORT – CITY COUNCIL MEETING
TO: Honorable Mayor and City Council Members
FROM: David Loya, Director of Community Development
PREPARER: David Loya, Director of Community Development DATE: June 18, 2025
TITLE: Public Hearing to Receive Public Comment on the Roger’s Garage Affordable Housing Project.

RECOMMENDATION:

Staff recommends that the Council:
1) Receive a staff report, open the public hearing, and take public comment; and 2) Close the public hearing.

INTRODUCTION:

The City has been working with Danco Communities over the past year to assist the development of the Roger’s Garage site for affordable housing. The Council previously approved two separate funding rounds for predevelopment and development for the project. Affordable housing projects require several finance sources. After noticing the public hearing, staff learned that the Roger’s Garage site is listed on the Cortese List. projects that are on the Cortese List CEQA Guidelines, Sec. 15300.2(e), are ineligible to use a Categorical Exemption. Staff will reassess the level of environmental review for the project and will notice a future hearing when that process is complete.

No action is needed at this time.

BACKGROUND:

The City holds approximately $1,500,000.00 in CDBG PI due to a relatively large business loan repayment in FY 24/25. The City also has two open CDBG grants for Business Assistance and the Valley West Neighborhood Center study. Grant funds cannot be drawn when the City holds PI. In addition to losing access to grant funds, the City may not be eligible for the upcoming 2025 CDBG grant cycle. Allocating local PI to these activities resolves the grant expenditure concerns and facilitates the City’s affordable housing and economic development policy goals.

The City held a CDBG scoping hearing on February 19, 2025, which identified the Roger’s Garage Project, the Mad River Community Hospital campus Behavioral Health Center, and the Economic Development activities as likely for CDBG PI funding. From that scoping list, the Roger’s Garage and Economic Development activities are being considered for PI application because these activities are both ready to fund and have the highest eligibility. Staff is continuing to assess the Behavioral Health Center for CDBG eligibility. If eligible, that project will be noticed separately for a PI application hearing. If it is not eligible, staff recommends allocating the Center’s allocation to the Roger’s Garage project to fully disburse the PI balance by adopting Resolution No. 245-46.

The Business Assistance and Microenterprise program application, which was noticed along with the Roger’s Garage application, will be heard separately. The City has an open grant it may allocate PI funds to. The City’s BA and ME programs have been in high demand, and the additional funding will support 2-5 additional businesses. The BA/ME program, however, cannot expend much more than the proposed $200K in the remaining time on the ‘22 grant. For this reason, committing the bulk of the funding to a project that can use the full amount sets the City’s CDBG program up for best success.

DISCUSSION:

The Project
The Roger’s Garage Project is a proposed 45-unit multi-family affordable housing development targeting households with incomes at 30, 40, 50, and 60 percent of the area median income (AMI).

The project site is located at 1622 Old Arcata Road. Currently, the project has secured $5M funding through the Competitive Permanent Local Housing Allocation (CPLHA) program and will be applying for the California Tax Credit Allocation Committee (CTCAC) funds and, perhaps, other grants. City Council previously awarded $180,000 in Permanent Local Housing Allocation Program (PLHA) funds for predevelopment work. This project will address the need for housing for lowerincome households.

The project is currently seeking land use permits with the City of Arcata. Danco Communities is working to complete the application, but preliminary plans have been submitted (May 21, 2025, City Council agenda item, Attachment B). The design is consistent with the City’s Land Use Code and compliant with the General Plan 2045. The project requires a Design Review permit, which will be considered by the Planning Commission at a separately noticed hearing. The City’s authority must be consistent with the Housing Accountability Act in reviewing the project based on objective design standards.

There are several neighbors that have expressed concern about the project (Attachment A). While this hearing is not the appropriate venue for reviewing the land use entitlements, the Council’s action should consider the broader implications. The concerns that have been raised include contamination on the site, which used to be an auto repair shop. Uses also included car crushing.

The City is working closely with the North Coast Regional Water Quality Control Board, which is the responsible agency for clearing contaminated sites for development. The project has an approved clean-up plan, which the Water Board staff have preliminarily indicated is adequate to clear the site for development.

Other concerns expressed include the building height, concerns over traffic on Old Arcata Road as a result of the project, and concerns about compatibility of uses. The site has been zoned for the proposed use since at least 2008. Except for maximum allowed height, the project conforms with all design standards in the code. The buildings meet the height standard, but he photovoltaic array, which is roof mounted, extends five feet above the height standard. Such projections are allowed three feet. So the project requires a site design standard exception to accommodate an additional two feet beyond the maximum for the solar panels.

Since the project is a State Density Bonus law project, it also qualifies for exceptions and concessions from the standards and fees. State law allows density bonus projects to eliminate local requirements that impact the cost of the project. Density bonus law provides a very low bar for developers to show that there is a cost impact to the project when requesting concessions or exceptions. Such exceptions to the standards include the height exception. To date, Danco has not requested any concessions or additional exceptions from the standard.

Financing
To be competitive for the TCAC financing, the project requires local funding as a soft loan. All affordable housing projects require subsidy layering to bring them to market. The City’s prior commitments count towards the local financing. The PI will be a part of the funding package. The City and Danco Communities will likely seek additional state funding for the project as well. This commitment is also critical to supporting the Competitive PLHA $5M award for the project that the City was awarded recently.

CDBG-eligible activities include acquisition, predevelopment, and construction-related costs for affordable housing projects. Staff recommends allocating a total of $758,000 to $1M, depending on the Health Center eligibility, in CDBG program income to support the eligible activity for the acquisition of property for a multi-family affordable housing development project, activity delivery, and administrative costs.

The City commitment of CDBG PI would be contingent on Danco Communities securing the remaining funding needed to complete the project. The project total cost is estimated at $31M. The City has committed $5M in CPLHA funding. The CDBG PI would be an additional ~$1M. If the remaining funding to complete the project is not secured, the CDBG PI funding would not be disbursed.

If the funds are disbursed, they would be loaned to Danco Communities, or to the LLC developed to own and operate the project, for acquisition of the property. The City is not purchasing the property and will not be an owner of the property or the project. The City is acting similar to a bank, lending funds to the LLC to acquire the property to develop the project.

The loan terms would include a low interest, residual receipts note and a regulatory agreement restricting tenancy to lower-income households. Residual receipts are paid to the City from cashflow after all hard debt and operations funding requirements are met. Generally, the City receives 75% of residual receipts and the developer receives 25%. This loan structure and the process of securing grant funds to loan to affordable housing developers is the same as affordable housing developments the City has been involved in (e.g., Sorrel Place, Plaza Point, Arcata Gardens, Bayview Apartments).

Revenue from payments on the loan funds over time will be deposited in the City’s CDBG PI Fund (255). This revenue can then be loaned in the future to other eligible CDBG projects or programs.

Timeline and Public Participation
Approving an application for use of CDBG PI is a very early step in the process for considering project approval. In addition, the financing is one of two City processes; there will be a Planning Commission Design Review, as well. The financing component will likely take a year or more to secure all of the financing for the project. There may be additional grant opportunities the City is involved in. Ultimately, the project will have to secure competitive tax credit financing through the Tax Credit Allocation Committee.

The land use entitlement is a Design Review permit. The application is incomplete for the Design Review permit, so an estimate on when the project will be before the Commission is premature. This process will happen later in 2025. The Commission would be reviewing the project for conformance with the City’s objective design standards. The Housing Accountability Act (the “Act”) prevents the City from denying a housing project that is in conformance with its standards. The Act also prevents the City from modifying, reducing the density, or otherwise conditioning the project in ways that are not consistent with the objective design standards.

The public are encouraged to be involved in each of these decisions. The financing components are noticed through the newspapers. The Planning Commission hearing will be noticed both by a legal notice in the newspaper and a mailer to all residents and property owners within 500 feet of the project. In addition, City staff have been corresponding with individuals that have expressed an interest in the project to ensure they are aware of any City meetings or actions. Lastly, the City added the project to its Major Development Projects page (https://www.cityofarcata.org/705/MajorDevelopment-Projects).

Program Income General Administration
The CDBG program updated its software interface in FY 21/22. As a result of this update, they could no longer receive information about CDBG PI Expenditures unless they were associated with a grant. Despite the CDBG program’s software challenges, the City continued to incur General Admin (GA) expenses. The City has tracked those expenses and revenues in its General Ledger but has been unable to report these expenditures. This PI application includes the PI GA revenues since FY 21/22 so the City can report the expenditures. The total GA revenue is approximately $331,773.

There is currently a PI GA balance of approximately $135,414 the City can use for future expenditures. The balance of expenditures will be reported in previous Fiscal Years.

POLICY IMPLICATIONS:

This project is consistent with the City’s affordable housing, infill, alternative transportation, and mixed-use policies in the Arcata General Plan 2045.

COMMITTEE/COMMISSION REVIEW:

The Planning Commission will consider land use entitlements at a separately noticed hearing.

ENVIRONMENTAL REVIEW (CEQA):

CEQA-The project is listed on the Department of Toxic Substances Control EnviroStore website.

This is a list developed pursuant to Government Code Sec. 65962.5 et seq (Cortese List). Sites on lists developed under this Government Code do not qualify for Categorical Exemptions. The property was voluntarily added to the Cortese list when a previous project proposal to develop a preschool on the site was being considered.

Despite the fact that the project would otherwise qualify for the Class 30, small hazardous waste cleanup, and Class 32, infill projects, because it is on this list, the exemptions cannot be used. Staff will evaluate the environmental review process and report back to Council in the coming months.

NEPA- Projects funded by CDBG are subject to the National Environmental Policy Act (NEPA).

The acquisition is categorically excluded subject to 24 CFR § 58.35(a) as it meets requirements for multifamily residential buildings 3(iii)(B). However, the project may require an Environmental Assessment (“EA”) because it proposes new construction of more than five units.

The Council does not take action on the Environmental Assessment. The Director of Community Development is the City’s Environmental Coordinator for the purposes of NEPA. The EA will be certified by the Environmental Coordinator. A notice of no significant impact and notice of intent to release funds will be published thereafter. The City Council’s commitment will be contingent on receiving the authority to use grant funds from HCD.

BUDGET/FISCAL IMPACT:

The action would authorize $1,331,773 in expenditures of local PI currently held in the 255 Fund.

This action would only be effective after the CDBG program issues an Authority to Use Grant Funds. This action cannot be taken until CEQA is complete.

RECOMMENDED COUNCIL ACTION:
1) Receive a staff report, open the public hearing, and take public comment; and 2) Close the public hearing.

( :nY M/\NAGER'S OFFICE:

As a nearby resident of the proposed housing project-just one block away-I'm writing to share my concerns, as I'm unable to attend the upcoming council meeting. I respectfully ask that this letter be submitted for consideration as part of the public record.

I understand the need for growth, but I urge the Council to vote no on this development due to several issues that directly affect the Bayside neighborhood and its homeowners. Here are the concerns I'd like you to take into account:

1. loss of Parking and Road Conditions:

Recent road work on Old Arcata Road (near the school garden section) has significantly reduced parking availability. This has already impacted nearby streets like Highland and Golf Course Road, both of which are in poor condition and in need of resurfacing and clear striping. Traffic is becoming more congested and less safe.

2. lack of Public Transportation:

There is currently no city bus service into Bayside. The closest stop is in Sunny Brae.

Without cars, future residents of the proposed development will have limited access to essential services unless they walk or bike on already unsafe roads.

3. Traffic Speed and Safety:

There's a serious lack of traffic enforcement in our neighborhood. Cars often exceed 50 mph on Old Arcata Road, which is marked as a 25 mph zone. There are no stoplights or speed controls for long stretches-from Highland to the Post Office-making it hazardous for drivers, cyclists, and pedestrians alike.

4. Increased Congestion Near the School:

Highland and the city portion of Golf Course Road are already overwhelmed during school pick-up and drop-off times, especially during events at Jacoby Creek School.

Parked cars often narrow the road to a single lane, creating dangerous bottlenecks.

5. Impact on Property Values and Environmental Quality:

Construction will bring noise, dust, and heavy traffic to our quiet, semi-rural neighborhood. This not only disrupts daily life but may also decrease property values and hurt the area's environmental quality.

6. loss of Rural Character:

Bayside is valued for its open views and agricultural surroundings. Adding dense housing will increase traffic, strain local infrastructure (especially at Jacoby Creek

School), and create a visual mismatch with the existing neighborhood.

7. Environmental and Health Concerns:

The development site may be affected by contamination from the old Roger's Garage.

Disturbing this land could release harmful pollutants into the air or groundwater. This raises serious questions about long-term health and liability, including the potential for rising homeowner insurance costs.

8. Quality of Life and <;:ommunity Identity:

Increased density brings more cars, more noise, and more stress on schools, emergency services, and utilities. Bayside risks losing its unique identity as a semi-rural, quiet, family-oriented community if this development moves forward without proper planning and infrastructure.

I care deeply about this neighborhood, as do many of my neighbors. We're not opposed to all development, but we believe that any project should reflect the existing character, infrastructure capacity, and environmental realities of Bayside.

Thank you for considering my concerns, and please vote no on this project.

Dear Council members and fellow residents,
Many constituents and voters, ourselves included, applaud the City of Arcata and Danco for developing infill housing in Arcata. We look forward to a time when the neglected Roger's Garage site is a source of community pride, not a source of contamination and controversy.

As you review plans for developing the former Roger’s Garage site, please keep in mind the 50+ years of vehicle repair, dismantling, and car crushing, from 1945 to 1998.

At the site (and currently visible) are corroding auto parts, car bodies, and car tires. Many were recently exposed by a Danco crew moving brush and soil.

For many years Pete Demassa (who sold to Danco) allowed his friends and associates to dump construction debris, appliances, sheet rock, solvents, asphalt, mattresses, paint, auto parts and batteries, brake pads, lumber, wiring, windshields etc. onto nearby parcels.

This activity directly impacts APNs 509-191-20, 500-191-34, 500-191-27 and marginally parcels 500-191-38 and 500-191-41.The most egregious dumping took place at a huge, wet depression now hidden under blackberries and alders, behind parcel #500-191-41. We witnessed this dumping on repeated occasions in the 1990's.

At the time the City of Arcata enforced against Roger's Garage to end this practice. To our knowledge the City implemented no follow-up or clean-up. In our view this de facto dump site (extending well beyond the Danco property) must be considered when evaluating contamination of surface and ground waters. The waters arrive ineluctably at the drainage inlet (low point) on Danco property.

As described in Terry Clark's letter to Kelsey Fletterick (May 9, 2024) this neighborhood is permeated by prolific groundwaters. Once they cross underneath Old Arcata Road via the storm water system they arrive into the Coastal Zone, finally transiting Jacoby Creek Elementary School, and ending up in the bottomlands and Humboldt Bay.

During the process of remediating site contamination, we believe Danco and therefore the City of Arcata, should be required to discover and clear away the entire plume of surface wreckage. This would involve the parcels named above. Our understanding is that the City of Arcata (public) is entwined with Danco (privately held) utilizing public funds. To reach the

very best outcome the City of Arcata must partner in a full clean-up. All for one and one for all.

Before approving more loans or promoting this project, you owe it to yourselves to ‘tour’ this long ignored environmental wound and to investigate the scope of dumping.

Thank you for your consideration.

CouncilmembersI was much surprised and disappointed to read of the Roger's Garage project.

My major concern is that it would have too great a negative impact on the Jacoby Creek School in terms of crime and traffic. This would be an unacceptable consequence for JCS or any school. I live in Sunnybrae, so while I don't see it impacting me directly, my spouse teaches there and my 2 children have attended there. I am sympathetic to Bayside residents' concerns and would like to see other kids have the same opportunity my kids had.

I also have grave concerns about liability City of Arcata may be unwittingly assuming given the toxicity of the site. There are bound to

be surprises. Anyone remember the Marsh Commons project? This could be worse, a lot worse, given its history.

While I've always seen government subsidized housing as a vastly imperfect solution, given the problem I have always supported it as being far better than doing nothing at all. That support included voting for more of it in Arcata when it was on the ballot recently. The City's backing of this badly-flawed project will leave me regretting this vote.

Arcata has done a lot of low-income housing. While we've done our share, I could support more, but not this horrible project in this location.

On a broader note, I've seen better plans for this site. I do recall a plan that included a mixed use of offices, retail, residential, and open space.

WONDERFUL!! For this site and the community! We do need housing for the rest of us. A recent report showed Arcata deficient in providing housing for those who can afford it. Let us remember that we do need a tax base to fund government functions, such as providing low income housing.

Thank you for your consideration of my thoughts and your service to the City.

STAFF REPORT – CITY COUNCIL MEETING
TO: Honorable Mayor and City Council Members
FROM: Emily Sinkhorn, Director of Environmental Services PREPARER: Emily Benvie, Deputy Director of Environmental Services DATE: June 18, 2025
TITLE: Public Hearing to Consider Adopting Resolution No. 245-56 Confirming the Report of 2024 Lien Letter Recipients of Delinquent Garbage Account Fees.

RECOMMENDATION:

It is recommended that the Council:

1. Conduct a Public Hearing to hear objections or protests from landowners listed on the report of 2024 Lien Letter Recipients of Delinquent Garbage Account Fees;

2. Make revisions or corrections to the Report as the Council deems just; and

3. Adopt Resolution No. 245-56 Confirming the Report of 2024 Delinquent Garbage Account Fees for Lien.

INTRODUCTION:

The City of Arcata requires all occupied premises to subscribe to and pay for garbage and recycling services. Tenants may obtain and pay for collection service; however, the owner of each parcel is ultimately responsible for payment of such service. Recology Arcata serves as the City’s franchise garbage and recycling hauler. The Arcata Municipal Code, Title V—Sanitation and Health, Chapter 3—Solid Waste Management, Section 5430 defines solid waste disposal bills not paid within 60 days after the billing date to be late and deemed delinquent. Section 5430 allows the City to collect payment for delinquent accounts pursuant to the authority granted in Government Code section 38790.1, and in the manner described in Government Code section 25831. Pursuant to this process, the City Council reviews and confirms a report of the delinquent accounts during a public hearing at which time affected property owners may present objections or protests. The Council may revise or correct the report, as it deems appropriate prior to taking action to confirm it. A certified copy of a confirmed report of delinquent accounts is then filed with the County Auditor. Upon recordation of the report, the liens are created and attached to the property.

DISCUSSION:

Consistent with the process the City has done to collect Stormwater Drainage Maintenance Fees, and consistent with state law and the Municipal Code, staff has determined that the most efficient and cost-effective method to collect delinquent garbage and recycling bills is to consolidate these billings with the County of Humboldt’s Secured Property Tax Bill for those parcels which are not tax exempt. Recology Arcata, the City’s franchise hauler, and Finance Department staff will continue to

bill and seek collection through other methods from those property owners who are tax exempt should any of those entities have delinquent accounts.

Recology sends delinquent account letters to all past-due account holders bimonthly for commercial accounts and monthly for residential accounts and to the respective property owners. In accordance with the City of Arcata Municipal Code, Section 5410 A, delinquent charges for the collection of refuse are the ultimate responsibility of the property owner regardless of who the account holder is, unless the property has changed hands since the delinquency.

The City, through Recology, sent a lien letter to affected delinquent garbage account property owners on May 27, 2025, notifying property owners that unless outstanding payments are made to Recology Arcata, delinquent collection charges will be reported to the City Council for confirmation at a public hearing on June 18, 2025. A generic copy of the lien notice letter is attached.

Recology provided the City with a list of 2024 delinquent garbage accounts on April 30, 2025, as well as an updated list on June 6, 2025, following payment on several accounts. This updated list is attached to Resolution No. 245-56 as the Report of 2024 Delinquent Garbage Accounts for Lien.

These are the accounts that will have liens placed on their property if the account is not paid prior to July 31, 2025. Accounts that are paid prior to July 31, 2025, will be removed from the delinquent accounts list to be filed with the County Auditor. The delinquent fees in the confirmed Report constitute special assessments against the respective parcels, which are collected in the same manner as property taxes and subject to the same late fees and sale procedure as for real property taxes POLICY IMPLICATIONS:

This process is consistent with the City’s Municipal Code Title V—Sanitation and Health, Chapter 3—Solid Waste Management, Section 5430—Rates and Charges.

STAFF REPORT – CITY COUNCIL MEETING
TO: Honorable Mayor and City Council Members
FROM: David Loya, Community Development Director
PREPARER: David Loya, Community Development Director
DATE: June 18, 2025
TITLE: Public Hearing to Consider Adopting Resolution No. 245-55 Authorizing Application for Community Development Block Grant Program Income for Business Assistance and Microenterprise Programs (Not Subject to the California Environmental Quality Act [CEQA]).

RECOMMENDATION:

It is recommended that the Council conduct a public hearing and then adopt Resolution No. 245-55 authorizing the application for and allocation of up to $200,000 in Community Development Block Grant (CDBG) Program Income (PI) to continue and expand the City’s Business Assistance (BA) and Microenterprise (ME) program.

INTRODUCTION:

Through the City’s Business Assistance and Microenterprise programs, operated under Grant No. 22-CDBG-ED-30042, Arcata has the opportunity to apply for and use Program Income (PI) to support local economic development. This action would authorize the City to apply for and allocate up to $200,000 in PI funds to expand the Business Assistance and Microenterprise programs. These programs have been in high demand and provide critical financial support to small businesses and entrepreneurs who often don’t qualify for traditional financing. With this additional funding, the City could support an estimated two to five more businesses, helping to promote job creation, business growth, and economic resilience.

BACKGROUND:

The Business Assistance Program is a loan program designed to support small businesses and job growth or retention through affordable financing to eligible businesses that may not satisfy underwriting standards for conventional financing. The Program may provide fund loans up to $300,000. (Larger loans may be funded through a separate application to the state.) The Microenterprise Financial Assistance Program is designed to stimulate economic growth by assisting with expansion for startup and existing businesses that may not satisfy underwriting standards for conventional financing. A microenterprise is a for-profit business with five or fewer employees, one of which is the owner. This Program funds grants up to $10,000 and affordable loans up to $50,000.

The City held a CDBG scoping hearing on February 19, 2025, and identified several eligible activities. This report proposes prioritizing $200,000 in PI for BA and ME programs due to demonstrated community interest and program impact.

DISCUSSION:

Adopting Resolution No. 245-55 (Attachment A) will enable the City to apply and allocate $200,000 in CDBG Program Income to support an estimated two to five additional businesses.

POLICY IMPLICATIONS:

This action will support the City’s economic development goals.

COMMITTEE/COMMISSION REVIEW:

None.

ENVIRONMENTAL REVIEW (CEQA):

Applying for a grant is not a project pursuant to CEQA. No specific projects have been identified at the application stage. Any business loans funded through the program are independently evaluated for environmental review.

The program is subject to NEPA and was determined to be Categorically Excluded per 24 CFR

58.35(b)(4), Economic Development activities by the Certifying Officer on July 13, 2022. If awarded, the Environmental Review Record will be updated to reflect the PI added to the program.

BUDGET/FISCAL IMPACT:

The action would authorize $200,000 in expenditures of local PI currently held in the 255 fund. This action would only be effective after the CDBG program issues an authority to use grant funds. This action would authorize the City to continue to operate and expand its Business Assistance and Microenterprise Financial Assistance Programs. Repayment on loans funded through these Programs generate Program Income, which can in turn be used to fund other CDBG activities.

RECOMMENDED COUNCIL ACTION:

1. Receive a staff report and open the Public Hearing.

2. Receive public comment.

3. Close the Public Hearing.

4. Motion to adopt Resolution No. 245-55 authorizing the application for and allocation of up to $200,000 in Community Development Block Grant (CDBG) Program Income (PI) to continue and expand the City’s Business Assistance (BA) and Microenterprise (ME) program.

STAFF REPORT – CITY COUNCIL MEETING
TO: Honorable Mayor and City Council Members
FROM: Tabatha Miller, Finance Director/Assistant City Manager PREPARER: Tabatha Miller, Finance Director/Assistant City Manager DATE: June 18, 2025
TITLE: Public Hearing to Consider Establishing the Fiscal Year (FY) 2025/2026 Appropriations Limit (“Gann Limit”) and Revising the FY 2024/2025 Appropriations Limit.

RECOMMENDATION:

It is recommended that the Council:
1) Open the Public Hearing regarding the establishment of the Fiscal Year (FY) 2025/2026 Appropriations Limit (“Gann Limit”) and revision of the FY 2024/2025 Gann Limit; 2) Receive a Staff Report;
3) Invite public comment;
4) Adopt Resolution No. 245-52 Establishing the FY 2025/26 Appropriations Limit; and Adopt Resolution No. 245-54 Revising the FY 2024/2025 Appropriations Limit; and 5) Close the public hearing.

INTRODUCTION:

Each year, the governing body of the state and each local governmental agency must establish and is subject to an Appropriations Limit, also referred to as the “Gann Limit”.

BACKGROUND:

The Appropriations Limit for any year is the Appropriations Limit from the previous year adjusted by inflation and population changes. Government Code §7910 requires that 15 days prior to adopting its annual Appropriations Limit, the documentation used to determine the Appropriations Limit is made available to the public. The documentation was available in the Finance Department for review on May 16th and is published as part of this agenda item as Attachment B and D.

Public notice of the public hearing was published in the Mad River Union on May 28, 2025, to ensure that interested members of the public were notified of the opportunity to review the Appropriations Limit documentation and to provide public comment. That same code section sets forth the requirements and time limit for contesting the adopted Appropriation Limit. A judicial action to attack, review, set aside, void or annul the action of the government must be commenced within 45 days of the resolution effective date.

DISCUSSION:

Not all City revenues are subject to the annual Appropriations Limit. Proceeds from taxes subject to the limitation include:
 All taxes levied by or for a public agency
 Any revenue received from regulatory licenses, user charges, and user fees only to the extent that the proceeds exceed the cost of providing the regulation, product or service  State subventions for general purposes
 Any interest earned from the investment of tax proceeds The Appropriations Limit for FY 2024/2025 is being revised from what was originally adopted on June 12, 2024, to correct a typographical error in the original Resolution which was discovered when the prior year Appropriations Limit was applied as the base amount for the FY 2025/2026 Limit.

BUDGET/FISCAL IMPACT:

There is no direct financial impact of establishing the Appropriations Limits or the total annual appropriations subject to the limit because the City’s budgets have been and will likely continue to be well below the annual Appropriations Limits.

RECOMMENDED COUNCIL ACTION:

1. Open the Public Hearing.

2. Receive a staff report presentation and review questions with staff.

3. Invite public comment.

4. Close public comment.

5. Motion to adopt Resolution No. 245-52 establishing the FY 2025/2026 Appropriations Limit; and adopt Resolution No. 245-54 Revising the FY 2024/2025 Appropriations Limit.

6. Close the Public Hearing.

A RESOLUTION OF THE CITY COUNCIL OF THE CITY OF ARCATA
ESTABLISHING THE FISCAL YEAR 2025-2026 APPROPRIATIONS LIMIT UNDER

ARTICLE XIII B OF THE CALIFORNIA CONSTITUTION, AND ESTABLISHING THE

PERIOD FOR CONTESTING SUCH LIMIT
WHEREAS, Article XIII B of the California Constitution, added by Proposition 4 (November 1979) and subsequently amended by Proposition 98 (November 1988) and Proposition 111 (June 1990) provides that the state and each local government shall establish an annual Appropriation Limit; and
WHEREAS, Article XIII B § 8(e)(2) requires the Governing Body to select the Change in Cost-ofLiving methodology each year by recorded vote of the governing body; and WHEREAS, the City published notice on May 28, 2024, of the location where the applicable statements were available for public inspection; and
WHEREAS, the Finance Director prepared the calculation and made the same available for public review during business hours for more than fifteen days prior to the June 18, 2025, Arcata City Council meeting in compliance with California Government Code § 7910(a); and WHEREAS, said total annual appropriations subject to the limitation were computed in accordance with the provisions in Article XIIB and Government Code Sections 7910; NOW, THEREFORE, BE IT RESOLVED by the City Council of Arcata as follows:

That, as required by the Government Code section 7910 the Appropriations Limit for the FY 2025- 26 is $22,019,469, the appropriations subject to the appropriations limit for FY 2025-26, totals $17,309,866 which does not exceed the appropriations limit for FY 2025-26. The annual adjustment factors that were selected to calculate the FY 2025-26 limit were: 1) California Per Capital Personnel Income; and 2) City of Arcata Population Growth.

BE IT FURTHER RESOLVED that any judicial action or proceeding to attack, review, set aside, void or annul the Appropriations Limit established by this resolution shall be commenced within 45 days from the date of this resolution in accordance with Division 9 of Title 1 of the California Government Code.

REPORT: 108,000 MORE CALIFORNIANS IN 2024;
TOTAL STATE POPULATION TOPS 39.5 MILLION
FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE: CONTACT: H.D. Palmer (916) 323-0648 May 1, 2025 Walter Schwarm (916) 323-4086
SACRAMENTO--- California’s population grew by 108,000 persons in calendar year 2024 to reach 39,529,000 people as of January 1st, 2025, according to new data reported today by the California Department of Finance.

The 0.28-percent increase marks the second consecutive year of population growth since the COVID-19 Pandemic and reflects the combination of several principal factors:
• Higher 2024 K-8 enrollment of 13,890 compared to 2023. • An increase in the 65-and-older population of 25,298 people in 2024, up from 6,622,031 people reported last year.
• Natural increase—the net result of births minus deaths—contributed 114,805 to overall population growth in 2024, largely in line with the growth of 105,550 in 2023. • More data sources to better estimate California’s share of recent increases in legal immigration to the U.S. from 2021 to 2024, showing 277,468 more immigrants to the state during this period than in the 2023 estimate.
• The report also reflects an upward revision of California’s 2023 population to a growth rate of 0.49 percent, up from its previously estimated 0.2-percent growth rate.

The report contains preliminary year-over-year January 2025 and revised January 2021 through January 2024 population data for California cities, counties, and the state. These estimates are based on information as of January 1, 2025, and therefore do not include data for the Los Angeles County wildfires later that month.

Other highlights of the January 1, 2025 city and county population report include:
• California’s 58 counties range in size from Alpine County, with just over 1,170 residents, to Los Angeles County with 9.9 million residents. The population increased in 35 counties, with most growth in the Central Valley, the Inland Empire, and coastal counties. Population gains reflect natural increase exceeding losses in net total migration. • The state’s ten largest counties remain Los Angeles, San Diego, Orange, Riverside, San Bernardino, Santa Clara, Alameda, Sacramento, Contra Costa, and Fresno, with each having more than one million residents. These ten counties represent 72 percent of California’s population. Nine of the ten counties with one million or more people have positive population growth, leaving Contra Costa as the only county with a very small population loss of 24 people. Los Angeles led with an increase of 28,000 persons. • Population growth rates ranged from a high of 2.88 percent in Lassen County to a low of -1.58 percent in Mono County. The next five largest in percentage growth were Glenn (1.35 percent), Fresno (0.87 percent), Sutter (0.83 percent), Imperial (0.81 percent), and Tulare (0.73 percent).

Dear Fiscal Officer:

Subject: Price Factor and Population Information
Appropriations Limit
California Revenue and Taxation Code Section 2227 requires the Department of Finance to transmit an estimate of the percentage change in population to local governments. Each local jurisdiction must use their percentage change in population factor for January 1, 2025, in conjunction with a change in the cost of living, or price factor, to calculate their appropriations limit for fiscal year 2025-26. Attachment A provides the change in California’s per capita personal income and an example for utilizing the price factor and population percentage change factor to calculate the 2025-26 appropriations limit. Attachment B provides the city and unincorporated county population percentage change along with the population percentage change for counties and their summed incorporated areas. The population percentage change data excludes federal and state institutionalized populations and military populations.

Population Percent Change for Special Districts
Some special districts must establish an annual appropriations limit. California Revenue and Taxation Code Section 2228 provides additional information regarding the appropriations limit.

Article XIII B, Section 9(C) of the California Constitution exempts certain special districts from the appropriations limit calculation mandate. The code section and the California Constitution can be accessed at the following website: http://leginfo.legislature.ca.gov/faces/codes.xhtml.

Special districts required by law to calculate their appropriations limit must present the calculation as part of their annual audit. Any questions special districts have on this requirement should be directed to their county, district legal counsel, or the law itself. No state agency reviews the local appropriations limits.

Population Certification
The population certification program applies only to cities and counties. California Revenue and Taxation Code Section 11005.6 mandates Finance to automatically certify any population estimate that exceeds the current certified population with the State Controller’s Office. Finance will certify the higher estimate to the State Controller by June 1, 2025.

Please Note: The prior year’s city population estimates may be revised. The per capita personal income change is based on historical data.

If you have any questions regarding this data, please contact the Demographic Research Unit at (916) 323-4086.

Attachment A
A. Price Factor: Article XIII B specifies that local jurisdictions select their cost of living factor to compute their appropriation limit by a vote of their governing body. The cost of living factor provided here is per capita personal income. If the percentage change in per capita personal income is selected, the percentage change to be used in setting the fiscal year 2025-26 appropriation limit is:

Per Capita Personal Income
Fiscal Year Percentage change
(FY) over prior year
2025-26 6.44
B. Following is an example using sample population change and the change in California per capita personal income as growth factors in computing a 2025-26 appropriation limit.
2025-26:

Per Capita Cost of Living Change = 6.44 percent
Population Change = 0.28 percent
Per Capita Cost of Living converted to a ratio: 6.44 + 100 = 1.0644 100
Population converted to a ratio: 0.28 + 100 = 1.0028
100
Calculation of factor for FY 2025-26: 1.0644 x 1.0028 = 1.0674

RESOLUTION NO. 245-54

A RESOLUTION OF THE CITY COUNCIL OF THE CITY OF ARCATA
REVISING THE FISCAL YEAR 2024-2025 APPROPRIATIONS LIMIT UNDER ARTICLE

XIII B OF THE CALIFORNIA CONSTITUTION, AND ESTABLISHING THE PERIOD

FOR CONTESTING SUCH LIMIT
WHEREAS, Article XIII B of the California Constitution, added by Proposition 4 (November 1979) and subsequently amended by Proposition 98 (November 1988) and Proposition 111 (June 1990) provides that the state and each local government shall establish an annual Appropriation Limit; and
WHEREAS, Article XIII B § 8(e)(2) requires the Governing Body to select the Change in Cost of Living methodology each year by recorded vote of the governing body; and WHEREAS, the City originally published notice on or before May 29, 2024 of the location where the applicable statements were available for public inspection; and WHEREAS, while preparing the Appropriation Limit for Fiscal Year (FY) 2025-26, a typographic error was identified in Resolution No. 234-61, originally adopting the FY 2024-25 Appropriation Limit on June 12, 2024 and it was determined that it needed to be corrected; and WHEREAS, said total annual appropriations subject to the limitation were computed in accordance with the provisions in Article XIIB and Government Code Sections 7910; NOW, THEREFORE, BE IT RESOLVED by the City Council of Arcata as follows:

That, as required by the Government Code section 7910 the revised Appropriations Limit for the FY 2024-25 is $20,349,412, the appropriations subject to the appropriations limit for FY 2024-25, totals $14,477,106 which does not exceed the appropriations limit for FY 2024-25. The annual adjustment factors that were selected to calculate the FY 2024-25 limit were: 1) California Per Capital Personnel Income; and 2) City of Arcata Population Growth.

BE IT FURTHER RESOLVED that any judicial action or proceeding to attack, review, set aside, void or annul the Appropriations Limit established by this resolution shall be commenced within 45 days from the date of this resolution in accordance with Division 9 of Title 1 of the California Government Code.

Dear Fiscal Officer:

Price Factor and Population Information
Appropriations Limit
California Revenue and Taxation Code section 2227 requires the Department of Finance to transmit an estimate of the percentage change in population to local governments.

Each local jurisdiction must use their percentage change in population factor for January 1, 2024, in conjunction with a change in the cost of living, or price factor, to calculate their appropriations limit for fiscal year 2024-25. Attachment A provides the change in California’s per capita personal income and an example for utilizing the factors to calculate the 2024-25 appropriations limit. Attachment B provides the city and unincorporated county population percentage change. Attachment C provides the population percentage change for counties and their summed incorporated areas. The population percentage change data excludes federal and state institutionalized populations and military populations.

Population Percent Change for Special Districts
Some special districts must establish an annual appropriations limit. California Revenue and Taxation Code section 2228 provides additional information regarding the appropriations limit. Article XIII B, section 9(C) of the California Constitution exempts certain special districts from the appropriations limit calculation mandate. Special districts required by law to calculate their appropriations limit must present the calculation as part of their annual audit. Any questions special districts have on this requirement should be directed to their county, district legal counsel, or the law itself. No state agency reviews the local appropriations limits.

Population Certification
The population certification program applies only to cities and counties. California Revenue and Taxation Code section 11005.6 mandates Finance to automatically certify any population estimate that exceeds the current certified population with the State Controller’s Office. Finance will certify the higher estimate to the State Controller by June 1, 2024. Please note: The prior year’s city population estimates may be revised. The per capita personal income change is based on historical data.

If you have any questions regarding this data, please contact the Demographic Research Unit at (916) 323-4086.

Attachment A
A. Price Factor: Article XIII B specifies that local jurisdictions select their cost of living factor to compute their appropriation limit by a vote of their governing body. The cost of living factor provided here is per capita personal income. If the percentage change in per capita personal income is selected, the percentage change to be used in setting the fiscal year 2024-25 appropriation limit is:

Per Capita Personal Income
Fiscal Year Percentage change
(FY) over prior year
2024-25 3.62
B. Following is an example using sample population change and the change in California per capita personal income as growth factors in computing a 2024-25 appropriation limit.
2024-25:

Per Capita Cost of Living Change = 3.62 percent
Population Change = 0.17 percent
Per Capita Cost of Living converted to a ratio: 3.62 + 100 = 1.0362 100
Population converted to a ratio: 0.17 + 100 = 1.0017
100
Calculation of factor for FY 2024-25: 1.0362 x 1.0017 = 1.0379

STAFF REPORT – CITY COUNCIL MEETING
TO: Honorable Mayor and City Council Members
FROM: Emily Sinkhorn, Director of Environmental Services PREPARER: Brigitte Price, Administrative Specialist
DATE: June 18, 2025
TITLE: Introduce Ordinance No. 1580, An Ordinance of the City Council of the City of Arcata Adding Section 3200 to Designate Fire Hazard Severity Zones to Chapter 1, Fire Prevention and Fire Protection, of Title III, Public Safety, of the Arcata Municipal Code.

RECOMMENDATION:

It is recommended that the Council introduce Ordinance No. 1580, An Ordinance of the City Council of the City of Arcata Adding Section 3200 to Designate Fire Hazard Severity Zones to Chapter 1, Fire Prevention and Fire Protection, of Title III, Public Safety, of the Arcata Municipal Code; waive reading of the text and consent to ready by title only.

INTRODUCTION:

CalFire is legislatively required to evaluate fire hazard severity in local responsibility areas (e.g. incorporated cities, urban regions and agricultural lands where a local government is responsible for wildfire protection). CalFire regularly updates fire hazard severity zone (FHSZ) maps for local responsibility areas, but in 2025 it became a requirement for local agencies with Moderate and/or High FHSZs to adopt CalFire’s FHSZ maps for their jurisdiction via an ordinance.

City staff have reviewed both the information from CalFire and the California Building Code to ensure that adoption of a FHSZ map for Arcata with a significant portion of the city mapped as a Moderate FHSZ would not have any unintended consequences for property owners. The City will continue to encourage property owners in the Moderate FHSZ to utilize best practices for new construction for fire hardening the exterior of homes and properties.

BACKGROUND:

The latest mapping by CalFire of FHSZs within Humboldt County was released on in late February 2025. CalFire’s FHSZ map for Arcata designates much of Arcata east of Highway 101 as a Moderate FHSZ including much of the Sunny Brae neighborhood and Cal Poly Humboldt campus as well as the Arcata Community Forest Tract and Sunny Brae Forest Tract. The majority of the City’s Jacoby Creek Forest Tract is mapped as a Moderate FHSZ though a sliver is designated as High FHSZ. FHSZs maps evaluate “hazard” not “risk,” and hazard is mapped from physical conditions on the ground that may create expected fire behavior over a 50-year period.

The current Arcata Municipal Code Title III Public Safety Chapter 1 Fire Prevention and Fire Protection details that all fire protection and prevention duties within the City of Arcata are the responsibility of the Arcata Fire Protection District. Adoption of Ordinance No. 1580 would amend this chapter to add a new section which designates FHSZs in Arcata as mapped by CalFire.

DISCUSSION:

The requirement for a local responsibility area (i.e. fire services provided by a local district/agency, such as Arcata Fire, and not provided by CalFire) with moderate fire severity is to adopt CalFire’s FHSZ maps so community members are informed of the hazard. There are additional requirements for local responsibility areas mapped as high fire severity (such as hazard disclosures and additional requirements in the California Building Code); however, the small portion of the Jacoby Creek Forest Tract mapped as high severity is public property zoned “Nature Resource” for which required hazard disclosures and building code requirements are not relevant.

City staff have reviewed both the information from CalFire and the California Building Code to ensure that adoption of a FHSZ map for Arcata with a significant portion of the city mapped as a moderate FHSZ would not have any unintended consequences for property owners.

The adoption of this FHSZ map will not impact insurance availability or rates as insurance companies use risk models which differ from hazard models. Additionally, FHSZ maps for local responsibility areas such as Arcata have been published by CalFire for decades; however, this is the first year that CalFire is requiring local jurisdictions to formally adopt CalFire’s mapping if a Moderate or High FHSZ is mapped within the jurisdiction. (Previously only Very High FHSZs were required for adoption within Local Responsibility Areas.) The City made the Fire Hazard Severity Zone (FHSZ) map available for public review and comment in March 2025 (https://www.cityofarcata.org/322/MapsGIS). This topic was also agendized by the Forest Management Committee at its March 13, 2025 meeting. At this meeting the Forest Management Committee did not make any further recommendation to the City Council.

While members of the public can comment on the maps, per CalFire “a local agency may only increase the level of fire hazard severity…Fire hazard severity cannot be decreased.” As stated in the City’s General Plan policies, the City will continue to encourage property owners in the Moderate FHSZ to utilize best practices for fire hardening the exterior of homes and properties.

Staff recommends taking public comment and adopting the FHSZ map for Arcata as designated by CalFire.

POLICY IMPLICATIONS:

The ordinance, if adopted, will bring the City into compliance with state regulations that local jurisdictions with Moderate, High and/or Very High FHSZs adopt the designation via local ordinance and submit the adopted ordinance to state.

The City’s General Plan Public Safety Element has two policies relevant to this ordinance – PS-5d Management of wildland fire hazards and PS-5e Wildland fire risk reduction and defensible space around homes. The adoption of the FHSZ map is in line with these policies and is another tool to encourage property owners in the Moderate FHSZ to follow best practices for fire hardening the exterior of homes and properties.

ENVIRONMENTAL REVIEW (CEQA):

The adoption of the Fire Hazard Severity Zone Map is not considered a “Project” under CEQA.

Pursuant to Public Resources Code Section 21065, a “project” is defined as a “whole action” subject to a public agency’s discretionary funding or approval that has the potential to either (1) cause a direct physical change in the environment or (2) cause a reasonably foreseeable indirect physical change in the environment. The adoption of the Fire Hazard Severity Zone Map is therefore not subject to CEQA.

BUDGET/FISCAL IMPACT:

This ordinance will have minimal impact on the City’s budget. City GIS staff can ensure the FHSZ map on the City website and GIS portal remain up to date if updated by CalFire.

RECOMMENDED COUNCIL ACTION:

1. Open the Public Hearing.

2. Receive a staff report and review questions with staff.

3. Open public comment.

4. Close public comment.

5. Motion to introduce Ordinance No. 1580, An Ordinance of the City Council of the City of Arcata Adding Section 3200 to Designate Fire Hazard Severity Zones to Chapter 1, Fire Prevention and Fire Protection, of Title III, Public Safety, of the Arcata Municipal Code; waive reading of the text, and consent to read by title only.

6. Close the Public Hearing.

ORDINANCE NO. 1580

AN ORDINANCE OF THE CITY COUNCIL OF THE CITY OF ARCATA, ADDING SECTION 3200 TO DESIGNATE FIRE HAZARD SEVERITY ZONES TO CHAPTER 1,

FIRE PREVENTION AND FIRE PROTECTION, OF TITLE III, PUBLIC SAFETY, OF

THE ARCATA MUNICIPAL CODE
WHEREAS, California Government Code 51178 states the State Fire Marshal shall identify areas in the state as moderate, high and very high fire hazard severity zones based on consistent statewide criteria and based on the severity of fire hazard that is expected to prevail in those areas; and WHEREAS, the Fire Hazard Severity Zone (FHSZ) maps developed by the California Department of Forestry and Fire Protection (CalFire) evaluate hazard based on physical conditions of landscapes that create expected fire behavior over a 50-year period; and WHEREAS, a significant portion of eastern Arcata has been designated as a Moderate Fire Hazard Severity Zone and a small portion of the City’s Jacoby Creek Forest Tract of the Arcata Community Forest has been designated as a High Fire Hazard Severity Zone; and WHEREAS, adoption of an ordinance designating moderate and high fire hazard severity zones is necessary for the City of Arcata to comply with Senate Bill 63 (Stern, 2011), which requires the adoption of all three Fire Hazard Severity Zones classes within Local Responsibility Areas (LRAs), when previously only Very High Fire Hazard Severity Zones were required for adoption in LRAs; and
WHEREAS, the City of Arcata seeks to increase resiliency and preparedness of the community for a range of natural disasters and climate driven emergencies; and WHEREAS, adopting the Fire Hazard Severity Zone map for Arcata with areas of Moderate FHSZ within a LRA also provides an opportunity to encourage property owners to follow best management practices for home and business fire hardening, including encouraging Arcata property owners to consider utilizing elements of the California Building Code Chapter 7A focused on exterior improvements around homes/structures to decrease fire spread potential; and WHEREAS, the map, included as Exhibit A, is hereby incorporated by reference, and entitled “City of Arcata Local Responsibility Area Fire Hazard Severity Zones,” dated April 14, 2025. The map is also located electronically on the following website:
https://www.cityofarcata.org/322/MapsGIS. NOW, THEREFORE, THE CITY COUNCIL OF THE CITY OF ARCATA DOES ORDAIN AS FOLLOWS:

SECTION 1. Section 3200 is hereby added to Chapter 1 (Fire Prevention and Fire Protection), Title III (Public Safety) of the Arcata Municipal Code as shown below by double underscore. (unchanged text is omitted and is shown by “* * *”):

* * *
SEC. 3200. Designation of Fire Hazard Severity Zones.

The City of Arcata hereby designates the Fire Hazard Severity Zones as recommended by the California Department of Forestry and Fire Protection pursuant to Government Code Section 51178. The map is hereby incorporated by reference and entitled “City of Arcata Local Responsibility Area Fire Hazard Severity Zones,” dated April 14, 2025.

SECTION 2. SEVERABILITY. If any section, subsection, sentence, clause, or phrase of this ordinance is for any reason held to be invalid, such decision shall not affect the validity of the remaining portions of the ordinance. The City Council hereby declares that it would have adopted the ordinance, and each section, subsection, sentence, clause, or phrase thereof, irrespective of the fact that one or more sections, subsections, sentences, clauses, or phrases be declared invalid.

SECTION 3. California Environmental Quality Act (CEQA). The adoption of the Fire Hazard Severity Zone Map is not considered a “Project” under CEQA. Pursuant to Public Resources Code Section 21065, a “project” is defined as a “whole action” subject to a public agency’s discretionary funding or approval that has the potential to either (1) cause a direct physical change in the environment or (2) cause a reasonably foreseeable indirect physical change in the environment.

The adoption of the Fire Hazard Severity Zone Map is therefore not subject to CEQA.

SECTION 4. LIMITATION OF ACTIONS. Any action to challenge the validity or legality of any provision of this ordinance on any grounds shall be brought by court action commenced within thirty (30) days of the date of adoption of this ordinance.

SECTION 5. EFFECTIVE DATE. This ordinance shall become effective thirty (30) days from and after its final passage, provided it is published pursuant to Government Code section 36933 in a newspaper of general circulation within fifteen (15) days after its adoption.
