October 5-11, 2025
WHEREAS, the City Council of Arcata is committed to ensuring the safety and security of all those living in the City of Arcata and visiting; and
WHEREAS, fire remains a serious public safety concern both locally and nationally, and the presence of lithium-ion batteries in many household devices introduces unique fire risks; and WHEREAS, most of the electronics used in homes daily — including smartphones, tablets, laptops, power tools, e-bikes, e-scooters, and toys — are powered by lithium-ion batteries, which if misused, damaged, or improperly charged, can overheat, start a fire, or explode; and WHEREAS, the National Fire Protection Association and Arcata Fire Protection District reports an increase in battery-related fires, underscoring the need for public education on the safe use of lithium-ion batteries; and
WHEREAS, residents should follow three key calls to action: Buy only listed products, charge batteries safely, and recycle them responsibly to prevent battery-related fires; and WHEREAS, lithium-ion batteries store a large amount of energy in a small space, and improper use such as overcharging, using off-brand chargers without safety certification, or exposing batteries to damage can result in fire or explosion; and WHEREAS, the proper disposal and recycling of lithium-ion batteries help prevent environmental hazards and reduce fire risks in the home and community; and WHEREAS, Arcata City Staff and Arcata Fire District first responders are dedicated to reducing the occurrence of fires through prevention, safety education, and community outreach; and WHEREAS, the 2025 Fire Prevention Week theme, “Charge into Fire Safety: Lithium-Ion Batteries in Your Home,” serves to remind us of the importance of using, charging, and recycling lithium-ion batteries safely to reduce the risk of fires in homes and communities.

NOW, THEREFORE, BE IT PROCLAIMED that the City Council of the City of Arcata hereby recognizes October 5-11, 2025, as FIRE PREVENTION WEEK throughout the City of Arcata.

HDVS enlists a diverse array of allies, agencies, and community members in supporting survivors of domestic and intimate partner violence; and
WHEREAS, only together can we change the health and safety of our community by challenging the societal norms that perpetuate violence.

NOW, THEREFORE, BE IT PROCLAIMED that the City Council of the City of Arcata recognizes the month of October 2025 to be DOMESTIC VIOLENCE AWARENESS MONTH. The Council celebrates HDVS’s 48 years of effort to improve community safety by breaking the cycle of domestic and intimate partner violence.

STAFF REPORT – CITY COUNCIL MEETING
TO: Honorable Mayor and City Council Members
FROM: David Loya, Director of Community Development
PREPARER: Delo Freitas, Senior Planner/Special Projects Program Coordinator DATE: October 1, 2025
TITLE: Award a Contract for Zoning Updates Planning Services to Lisa Wise Consulting, Inc. in the Amount of $549,711; Authorize an Increase up to 10% for Contingencies; and Approve Necessary and Associated Related Actions.

RECOMMENDATION:

It is recommended that the Council:
1) Award a contract for Zoning Updates Planning Services to Lisa Wise Consulting, Inc. in the amount of $549,711;
2) Authorize the City Manager or designee to increase the contract amount by up to 10% ($54,971 for a total not to exceed $604,682) to allow for contingencies; and 3) Authorize the City Manager to execute all applicable documents.

INTRODUCTION:

The City recently adopted its first comprehensive General Plan revisions since 1999, which triggers required updates to the City’s Land Use Code to create internal consistency between the General Plan and its implementing ordinance. City staff released a Request for Proposals (RFP) for Zoning Updates-Planning Services in July of this year. The City received three highly competitive responses to the RFP. Lisa Wise Consulting (LWC) provided the best overall response, and the cost proposal was competitive. Staff recommend authorizing the award with an approximate 10% cost contingency. This action will award the contract to Lisa Wise Consulting, Inc. to conduct the work, which contains multiple tasks and is slated to be completed by early 2028.

BACKGROUND:

The City posted its RFP for Arcata Zoning Updates – Planning Services, on July 23, 2025, (https://www.cityofarcata.org/bids.aspx?bidID=164), with responses due on August 29, 2025. The City received three proposals and chose to interview the two highest-ranked responding teams. The review panel ranked both the written and interview responses of both teams (Attachment A). The proposals were highly competitive, but the review panel ranked Lisa Wise Consulting, Inc. slightly higher, due largely to their demonstrated in-depth project understanding and experience with similar projects across the state.

DISCUSSION:

The City recently completed a comprehensive update to its General Plan, including updates to twelve of the City’s thirteen Elements. The General Plan Update emphasizes permit

streamlining and strategic infill of the City’s core urban area for housing development. While the General Plan sets a vision and policy guidance for future development, the Land Use Code as its implementing ordinance sets specific standards and regulations used in project review. The General Plan Update included areas of policy change that require review and updating of the Land Use Code to ensure internal consistency.

In 2024, the City was awarded a “Prohousing” grant from the U.S. Department of Housing and Community Development (HUD) to complete components of the implementation associated with the passage of Arcata’s updated General Plan that will encourage rapid production of additional housing supply. The RFP’s planning services, proposed to be awarded to Lisa Wise Consulting, Inc., include several components of that work, including updates to the Land Use Code as well as additional regulatory updates necessary to meet the City’s housing commitments as outlined below.
1) Land Use Code updates to create internal consistency between the General Plan (specifically the Land Use Element) and its implementing ordinance; 2) A separate standalone ordinance supporting the development of Accessory Dwelling Units, compliant with state law;
3) A new form-based code to streamline high quality, high-density development in the Valley West Infill Opportunity Zone (as adopted through the 2019 Housing Element); and
4) Environmental review necessary to satisfy the requirements of the California Environmental Quality Act (CEQA), based on the Environmental Impact Report prepared for the Arcata General Plan 2045.

The adaptation strategies produced from this planning effort will help guide the City’s future development and support the City in reaching its aggressive housing goals over the next twenty years.

The recommendation of contract award to Lisa Wise Consulting, Inc. is based on staff’s interest in choosing a firm that can develop high-quality, straightforward regulations that are digestible by the average Arcata resident. Lisa Wise Consulting, Inc. has a proven track record of working with communities on comprehensive code updates and development of form-based codes, and staff is confident that their team will be a good fit for the project.

Staff anticipates bringing work product to the community and decision makers periodically over the next two-year period before bringing final documents for approval in late 2027 or early 2028.

POLICY IMPLICATIONS:

The contract will not result in new policy but will implement the vision of the General Plan 2045.

COMMITTEE/COMMISSION REVIEW:

The work product will be reviewed by the Planning Commission and committees as appropriate, including the Historic Landmarks Committee, before being adopted by the Council. Staff will continue its engagement strategy to ensure the Council has access to the work as it develops.

ENVIRONMENTAL REVIEW (CEQA):

The contract award is not subject to environmental review. It is not a project as defined by CEQA.

Unless unforeseen circumstances arise, the documents produced will be covered by the EIR adopted for the General Plan and zoning updates.

BUDGET/FISCAL IMPACT:

The City has secured grant funding from the U.S. Department of Housing and Urben Development (HUD) to execute this work. In 2024, the City was awarded a “Prohousing” grant from HUD to complete components of the implementation associated with the passage of Arcata’s updated General Plan that will encourage rapid production of additional housing supply. The City has received $550,000 to fund the tasks outlined in the RFP which constitutes the entirety of the award.

Additional Prohousing grant dollars have been allocated for both staff time and admin/overhead costs.

RECOMMENDED COUNCIL ACTION:

Motion to:
1) Award a contract for Zoning Updates-Planning Services to Lisa Wise Consulting, Inc. in the amount of $549,711;
2) Authorize the City Manager or designee to increase the contract amount by up to 10% ($54,971 for a total not to exceed $604,682) to allow for 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, Community Development Director
PREPARER: Sara Channell, Community Development Specialist II DATE: October 1, 2025
TITLE: Adopt Resolution No. 256-12 Approving Guidelines for the HOME Investment Partnership Tenant-Based Rental Assistance (TBRA) Program – Not a Project Pursuant to the California Environmental Quality Act (CEQA).

RECOMMENDATION:

It is recommended that the Council adopt Resolution No. 256-12 Approving Guidelines for the HOME Investment Partnership Tenant-Based Rental Assistance (TBRA) Program – not a project per California Environmental Quality Act (CEQA).

INTRODUCTION:

On May 1, 2024, the City Council, through Resolution No. 234-39, authorized the submission of the 2022-2023 HOME Investment Partnership Program (HOME) grant application to extend the City’s current Tenant-Based Rental Assistance (Rental Assistance) Program for the next three years. On August 7, 2025, the City was awarded the HOME grant for the rental assistance program in the amount of $1,500,000. In addition to securing funds to operate the program, the City will need to adopt program guidelines. Resolution No. 256-12 will approve the TBRA Program Guidelines.

BACKGROUND:

The City of Arcata’s Community Development Department operated a TBRA program starting October 13, 2020, with $1,000,000 from a 2019 HOME grant. The program has provided assistance with rent, utility costs, and security deposits to a total of ninety-five (95) low-income households in Arcata. The program’s waitlist gives preference to seniors and homeless individuals in Arcata as per Council direction.

DISCUSSION:

The proposed Rental Assistance Program is similar to the U.S Department of Housing and Urban Development (HUD) Housing Voucher Program and is designed to assist eligible low-income renters fulfill short-term gaps in their ability to meet basic housing needs. Establishing this Rental Assistance Program will fill a critical gap and provide much-needed support for housing. Unlike the Housing Voucher Program, which is ongoing, the Rental Assistance Program is limited to 24 months of assistance per recipient.

The Rental Assistance Program Guidelines have been drafted in HCD’s general format. Any Arcata rental household with an income less than 60% of the area median, as defined by the U.S.

Department of Housing and Urban Development, is qualified to apply for assistance from the program; however, the program operator will give waitlist priority to seniors over age 55 and homeless people. The decision to give waitlist priority to seniors and homeless people was based on the Council’s direction at the January 18, 2017, council meeting. The program authorizes the funds to be used to:

A. Provide Rental Assistance to help pay monthly rent and utility costs; and B. Provide security deposit assistance, if needed; and
C. Fund utility deposit assistance in conjunction with Rental Assistance subsidy or security deposit assistance.

The City will administer the program, acting as the Program Operator for management and oversight of all aspects of the program.

ENVIRONMENTAL REVIEW (CEQA):

This program is not subject to CEQA because adopting guidelines to operate a program on sites not identified is not a project according to CEQA.

Additionally, under NEPA, the program is Categorically Exempt per 24 CFR58.34(a)(3) (Administration of Program). The program does not involve physical development or construction and does not have the potential to cause significant environmental impacts.

BUDGET/FISCAL IMPACT:

This program will require both activity delivery and administrative funds to administer the program, which will use HOME program income funds that could be spent on other housing programs and projects. Staff has not identified any alternative projects or programs that might effectively utilize HOME program income funds at this time, however the use of Program Income funds has a potential opportunity cost on other projects or programs. Funds spent on the Rental Assistance Program are not recaptured through loan repayment or other means.

RECOMMENDED COUNCIL ACTION:

Motion to adopt Resolution No. 256-12 Approving Guidelines for the HOME Investment Partnership Tenant-Based Rental Assistance (TBRA) Program – not a project per CEQA. Consent Calendar vote.

PROGRAM GUIDELINES
I. INTRODUCTION
These Program Guidelines have been developed by the California Department of Housing and Community Development (HCD) based on the Section 8 Housing Assistance Program (HAP) operated by the U.S. Department of Housing and Urban Development (HUD) and have been adopted for the implementation of the City of Arcata HOME Tenant-Based Rental Assistance Program (hereinafter referred to as “TBRA Program”).

Overview of TBRA Certificate Program
This certificate-based TBRA Program features the following requirements:
• Maximum approvable gross rent (unit rent plus applicable utilities allowance) cannot exceed the applicable Rent Standard in Attachment D. • TBRA monthly assistance is calculated based on the Gross Rent less 30% of the household’s adjusted monthly income or 10% of the households gross monthly income, whichever is higher.
• The term of the TBRA Rental Assistance Contract (Attachment H) must begin on the same date as the term of the lease and ends with the termination of the lease. Tenants assisted in place must receive a renewed lease. • The unit must be documented for rent reasonableness (Section XX below). • The unit must pass a Housing Quality Standards (HQS) inspection (Attachment I).
• The Program shall use the HUD Income and TBRA assistance calculator at CPD Income Eligibility Calculator and Income Limits - HUD Exchange, using the HOME TBRA calculator.

Conflict of Interest Requirements
In accordance with 24 CFR Section 92.356 of the HOME Investment Partnerships (HOME) Final Rule, the following will apply:
(a) Conflicts prohibited. No persons described in paragraph (b) of this section who exercises or has exercised any functions or responsibilities with respect to activities assisted with HOME funds or who are in a position to participate in a decision making process or gain inside information with regard to these activities, may obtain a financial interest or benefit from a HOME-assisted activity, or have a financial interest in any contract, subcontract or agreement with respect to the HOME-assisted activity, or the proceeds from such activity, either for themselves or those with whom they have business or immediate family ties, during their tenure or for one year thereafter. Immediate family ties include (whether by blood, marriage or adoption) the spouse, parent (including stepparent), child (including stepchild), brother, sister (including a stepbrother or stepsister), grandparent, grandchild and in-laws of a covered person.

City of Arcata, CA HOME TBRA Program Guidelines Page 4
(b) Persons covered. The conflict of interest provisions of paragraph (a) of this section apply to any person who is an employee, agent, consultant, officer, or elected official or appointed official of the participating jurisdiction, State recipient, or subrecipient which are receiving HOME funds.
(c) Exceptions: Threshold requirements. Upon the written request of the HOME grantee to HCD, and HCD’s written request to HUD, HUD may grant an exception to the provisions of paragraph (a) of this section on a case-by-case basis when it determines that the exception will serve to further the purposes of the HOME Investment Partnerships Program and the effective and efficient administration of the participating jurisdiction's program or project. See 24 CFR 92.356(e)(1-6) for details on the documentation needed in order to submit an exception request to HCD.

Participating Agencies
The City of Arcata TBRA Program will be administered by the City of Arcata (hereinafter referred to as “Program Operator”). Note: The term “Program Operator” used throughout this document refers to the Program Administrator named above.

Fair Housing
The Fair Housing Lender and Accessibility logos will be placed on all outreach materials. The Program Operator will follow affirmative marketing procedures that provide information, through the implementation of an outreach marketing program to attract all eligible persons without regard to race, color, national origin, sex, sexual orientation, gender identity, age, religion, disability, and familial status. Affirmative marketing plans and procedures shall be approved by HCD. Fair housing marketing actions will be based upon a characteristic analysis comparison (census data may be used) of the TBRA Program’s eligible area compared to the ethnicity of the population served by the TBRA Program (includes, separately, all applications received and those receiving assistance) and an explanation of any underserved segments of the population. This information is used to show that protected classes (age, gender, ethnicity, race, and disability) are not being excluded from the TBRA Program. Flyers or other outreach materials, in English and any other language that is the primary language of a significant portion of the area residents, will be widely distributed in the TBRA Program-eligible area.

II. ELIGIBILITY
The TBRA Program will be available in areas located within the City of Arcata.

Preferences affect only the order of applicants on the wait list. Wait list preference will be given to applicants who are seniors (age 55 and over), and homeless families and individuals. Each household may choose to remain in their eligible unit or may choose to rent any other eligible unit in the service area identified above.

Income Qualification Criteria
Projected gross annual income of the applicant household will be used to determine whether it is above or below the published HCD income limits. 24 CFR Part 5

City of Arcata, CA HOME TBRA Program Guidelines Page 5
income qualification criteria, as shown in the most recent HCD program-specific guidance at https://www.hcd.ca.gov/grants-and-funding/income-limits/incomecalculation-and-determination-guide, will be followed to independently determine and certify the household’s gross annual income. Income will be verified by reviewing and analyzing tax returns, copies of wage receipts or paystubs, subsidy checks, bank statements and third-party verification of employment forms sent to employers. All documentation shall be dated within six (6) months prior to assistance, at a minimum, be recent, cover a consecutive two- (2) month period.

A. HOUSEHOLD INCOME DEFINITION:

Household income is the gross annual income of all adult household members that is projected to be received during the coming 12-month period and will be used to determine TBRA Program eligibility. Refer to Income Inclusions and Exclusions for further guidance to the types of incomes to be included or excluded when calculating gross annual income. For those types of income counted, gross amounts (before any deductions have been taken) are used, and the types of income that are not considered would include income of minors or live-in aides.

Certain other household members living apart from the household also require special consideration. The household’s projected ability to pay must be used, rather than past earnings, when calculating income.

The Part 5 Annual Income Inclusions and Exclusions list is attached to these guidelines as ATTACHMENT A.

B. ASSETS:

There is no asset limitation for participation in the TBRA Program.

Income from assets is, however, recognized as part of annual income under the Part 5 definition. An asset is a cash or non-cash item that can be converted to cash. The value of necessary items such as furniture, clothing and automobiles are not included. (Note: it is the income earned – e.g., interest on a savings account – not the asset value, which is counted in annual income.)
An asset’s cash value is the market value less reasonable expenses required to convert the asset to cash, including penalties or fees for converting financial holdings and costs for selling real property. The cash value (rather than the market value) of an item is counted as an asset. Part 5 Asset Inclusions and Exclusions is attached to these guidelines as ATTACHMENT B.

Eligible Households – Income and Assets
Most applicants must have household incomes at or below sixty percent (60%) of the applicable County’s area median income (AMI), adjusted by household size, as published by HCD each year (see ATTACHMENT C). The link to current HOME

City of Arcata, CA HOME TBRA Program Guidelines Page 6
income limits adjusted by household size is: https://www.hcd.ca.gov/grants-andfunding/income-limits/state-and-federal-income-rent-and-loan-value-limits.

However, the TBRA Program may provide assistance to up to ten percent (10%) of its assisted households with incomes at or below eighty percent (80%) of County’s AMI, under each HOME contract.
“Household” means one or more persons who occupy a housing unit. Subject to the exemptions allowed in the “Income Determination Guide”, all persons, including unborn children, and including non-related individuals, will be considered household members for purposes of determining income eligibility.

All adult applicants must certify that they meet the household income eligibility requirements for the TBRA Program and have their household income documented.

The income limits in place at the time the applicant(s) eligibility is certified will apply when determining applicant income eligibility.

Pursuant to 2 CFR section 92.2 and 24 CFR section 5.612, an individual who meets all of the following criteria is not eligible for TBRA assistance:
(a) Is enrolled as a student at an institution of higher education, as defined under section 102 of the Higher Education Act of 1965 (20 U.S.C. 1002); and (b) Is under 24 years of age; and
(c) Is not a veteran of the United States military; and (d) Is unmarried; and
(e) Does not have a dependent child; and
(f) Is not a person with disabilities, as such term is defined in section 3(b)(3)(E) of the 1937 Act and was not receiving assistance under section 8 of the 1937 Act as of November 30, 2005; and
(g) Is not otherwise individually eligible, or has parents who, individually or jointly, are not eligible on the basis of income to receive assistance under section 8 of the 1937 Act.

The Program Operator will review, confirm and document that the household does not meet these criteria, before entering into a TBRA assistance agreement. All other households meeting the income criteria for the Program may participate.

General TBRA Program Design
The TBRA Program is a rental subsidy program that is designed to assist eligible tenants with the payment of monthly rent and utility costs, security deposits, and utility deposits. TBRA assistance will make up the difference between the amount

City of Arcata, CA HOME TBRA Program Guidelines Page 7
the household can afford to pay for monthly rent and utilities and the actual cost of the housing occupied by the household. All TBRA assistance will be made in the form of a grant and will not have to be repaid.

NOTE: Assistance under the TBRA Program will consist of one 12-month term and is subject to renewal if funding is available. The minimum term of assistance will be 12 months unless a shorter term of as few as 6 months is requested by the household.

Rent Standards
The TBRA Program has adopted a Schedule of Rent Standards (also known as Payment Standards) in accordance with the method identified in HOME Final Rule Section 92.209(h)(3)(ii). Rent Standards will be updated annually and attached hereto as ATTACHMENT D. These Rent Standards will represent the highest gross rent (unit rent plus utility allowance) that can be approved for TBRA assistance.

Utility Allowance
The TBRA Program has elected to utilize the project-specific utility schedule in which the housing unit is located, when available. If none is available for a given unit, the local Public Housing Authority’s Schedule of Utility Allowances will be utilized. The utility allowance for affected tenants will be determined by obtaining a copy of the current utility allowance schedule for the project in which the housing unit is located, or else the published local Public Housing Authority Schedule. Any utilities that are not included in the rent will be factored into the calculation of TBRA assistance, as illustrated in the examples below.

Rental Assistance Subsidy Amounts
The monthly rental subsidy for each household will be the difference between the Gross Rent (approved rent plus the utility allowance, if any) and either thirty percent (30%) of the household’s adjusted monthly income or $1 whichever is more. The amount the tenant must pay monthly is known as the Total Tenant Payment (“TTP”).

Utility Reimbursement
In cases where the TTP is less than the utility allowance, the TBRA Program will pay the full unit rent to the Landlord, and the difference between the utility allowance and the TTP. This is called a “Utility Reimbursement.”
Examples for Calculating Tenant and Program Payment
The Smith household has been income certified and is eligible for assistance. Based on their household composition they are eligible for a two-bedroom unit. Their Gross Annual Income is $22,500 and their Adjusted Gross Annual Income is $18,300.

Thirty percent (30%) of their adjusted Gross Monthly Income is $458. The current TBRA Payment Standard for a two-bedroom unit is $775. The current utility allowance is $100. Since 30% of their Adjusted Gross Annual Income is more than the minimum TTP of $100, the adjusted income is used in these examples.

EXAMPLE 1: Unit Rents for $725 with all utilities included The Smiths must pay $458 monthly TTP Approved Rent: $725 (30% of adjusted gross monthly Less TTP (all for rent) ( 458)

City of Arcata, CA HOME TBRA Program Guidelines Page 8
Income, so $18,300/12 x 0.30 = $458) Program payment for rent $267 Note: In this first example, since all utilities are included, there is no utility allowance, so the whole TTP goes toward rent.

EXAMPLE 2: Unit Rents for $625 with some or no utilities included The Smiths must pay $458 monthly TTP Approved Rent: $625 (30% of adjusted gross monthly Plus utility allowance 100 Income, so $18,300/12 x 0.30 = $458) Equals Total rent/utilities $725 Less TTP ($100 for utilities
and $358 for rent) ( 458)
Program Payment for rent $267
Note: In this second example, the Total Tenant Payment of $458 is split between the utility allowance amount (for non-included utilities, using the applicable utility allowance schedule) and the tenant’s share of the rent.

Utilizing the same rent and utility allowance as in the previous two examples, there are occasionally circumstances in which the Total Tenant Payment is so low that it will not even cover the estimated cost of utilities. Performing the analysis assuming the Smith household’s Gross Annual Income and Adjusted Gross Annual Income are both $3,000 results in the following:

EXAMPLE 3: Unit Rents for $625 with no utilities included (less income) The Smiths must pay $75 monthly TTP Approved Rent: $625 (30% of adjusted gross monthly
Income, so $3,000/12 x 0.30 = $75) Plus utility allowance 100 Equals Total rent/utilities $725
Less TTP ($75 for utilities
and $0 for rent) ( 75)
Equals monthly subsidy $650
Less Program rent pmt. (625)
Equals Program payment
($100 utility allowance less $75 paid by tenant) to tenant for utilities $ 25 Note: In this third example, the Total Tenant Payment of $75 isn’t enough to cover the estimated utility expenses. The TBRA Program therefore pays all of the rent for the unit and a Utility Reimbursement to the tenant to cover the portion of the estimated utilities that exceed 30% of their adjusted income.

City of Arcata, CA HOME TBRA Program Guidelines Page 9
Rental Security Deposits
The TBRA Program may approve the payment of a rental security deposit to the landlord for new rentals where the program recipient has less than six months of gross income in their checking/savings accounts, and where the lease between the landlord and tenant is for at least one year. The amount of the security deposit may not exceed the equivalent of two month’s rent for the unit. Rental security and utility deposits, if any, are grants and not loans, and shall therefore be returned to the tenant at the end of the rental agreement.

III. APPLYING FOR ADMISSION
How to Apply
Households may apply for assistance by completing and submitting an application package to the Program Operator.

Completion of an Application
Upon completion of the application, an interview appointment will be scheduled. The interview appointment may be conducted in person or by telephone.

Applicants are responsible for rescheduling interview appointments when the original appointment is missed. If the Applicant does not reschedule and misses two consecutive interview appointments, the application may be rejected. • At a minimum, the head of household will be required to attend the interview appointment. All adult household members must sign the Applicant/Tenant Certification Form in order for the application to be considered complete. • Information provided by the Applicant to be verified includes information on household composition, income, allowances and deductions, preference status, full-time student status, and other factors relating to eligibility before being issued a TBRA Eligibility Agreement.
• Third-party verifications shall be obtained by telephone. When telephone requests are unsuccessful, the Program Operator will make adequate effort to ensure the third party is a valid source by documenting and including in the tenant’s file the following information: Third-party’s name, attempted contact person and contact information; name of the person who attempted the telephone interview; and date and time of the telephone call.

If additional information is needed to determine eligibility, a request will be sent to the Applicant, detailing the necessary additional information, which must be submitted within 10 working days. If no response is received within 10 days, a second request will be sent, allowing an additional 10 days to respond. If no response is received to the second request for additional information, an ineligibility letter will be sent. After the verification process is completed, the Program Operator will make a final determination of eligibility based on verified data.

City of Arcata, CA HOME TBRA Program Guidelines Page 10 IV. OCCUPANCY STANDARDS
All units occupied by households receiving TBRA assistance must meet the Housing Quality Standards found at 24 CFR 982.401 at the time of initial occupancy and throughout assisted tenancy.

Size of Units
Households meeting the preference criteria may remain in their units and be assisted in place; however, if they elect to select a different unit, the following occupancy standards shall apply.

The occupancy standard for the TBRA Program is two persons per sleeping area.

The standards prescribed will apply to the majority of households. However, in some cases the relationship, age, sex, health, or disability of a household member may warrant the assignment of a larger unit. Exceptions for larger units may be granted within the following guidelines:
• Unborn children shall be included in the size of the household; • Persons with verifiable medical needs;
• Other extenuating circumstances;
• Foster children are included when determining unit size (but not for household size for income limits evaluation);
• Space will not be provided for a household member who is absent more than 90 consecutive days (e.g., member of the military);
The following provides guidance on over-crowding and under-crowding:

Unit Size Min. # of Persons Max. # of Persons
1-BDR. 1 2
2-BDR. 2 4
3-BDR. 3 6
4-BDR. 4 8
Permanently Absent
If any adult member of a household leaves the unit for more than ninety (90) days, that adult member will be considered permanently absent from the unit. A remaining adult member of the household must report, in writing within ten (10) days, the change in household composition to the property manager and the Program Operator, who will then remove the absent adult as a household member.

City of Arcata, CA HOME TBRA Program Guidelines Page 11 Visitors
Any adult not included on the application that is in the unit for thirty (30) consecutive days without the written approval of the Program Operator will be considered to be living in the unit as an unauthorized household member.

Absence of evidence of a verifiable address will be considered verification that the visitor is a member of the household.

Statements from neighbors and/or the landlord will be considered in making a determination.

The burden of proof that an individual is a visitor rests on the household. In the absence of such proof, an individual will be considered an unauthorized member of the household and the Program Operator may terminate assistance if prior approval was not requested for the addition.

In a joint physical custody arrangement, if a minor is in the household less than 183 days per year (50% of the year), the minor will be considered to be an eligible visitor and not a household member.

Change in Household Composition
The Program Operator will verify changes in household composition (either reported or unreported). However, the burden of proof that an individual has moved ultimately rests on the household.

Change in Ownership
A change of ownership will be processed upon receipt of evidence of ownership, and a Letter of Authority Transfer, if applicable. Prior to the change of ownership taking effect, any payments made to the previous Landlord will be the responsibility of the new Landlord to recover.

Participant Relocation
Household relocation shall be limited. A household may move to a new unit during the lease only:
• When a mutual agreement between the Landlord and the tenant has been signed; or
• For good cause (the recipient must provide documentation such as police reports, court order, etc.)
In either case, the recipient must provide proper notice (30-day written notice) to the Program Operator and the Property Manager prior to initiating a move.

City of Arcata, CA HOME TBRA Program Guidelines Page 12 V. TBRA ELIGIBILITY AGREEMENT ISSUANCE AND BRIEFINGS
Purpose of Briefings
The purpose of the briefing is to provide new participants with the information found in the TBRA Eligibility Agreement (ATTACHMENT E). This will ensure that all Participants are aware of their responsibilities and the ramifications if they fail to comply.

Attendance Requirement
The head of household is required to attend a briefing to receive TBRA assistance.

Format
Briefings can either be in a group or held individually.

The TBRA Eligibility Information briefing shall cover the following:
• Procedures for notifying the Program Operator of abuses such as side payments or other overcharges and Housing Quality Standard violations in the unit;
• The HUD brochure on lead-based paint (Protect Your Family From Lead in Your Home) and information about where blood level testing is available, for units built prior to 1978;
• Conditions and procedures for notifying the Program Operator of changes which may occur between annual re-examinations;
• Conditions in the lease addendum under which tenancy may be terminated; and
• Conditions under which TBRA Housing Program assistance may be terminated.

Household Obligations
While the relationship between the tenant and landlord is the same as in the private housing market, the TBRA Housing Program participants have the following additional obligations:

1. The household must supply any information that is determined to be necessary in the administration of the TBRA Program, which may include rental history including any evictions, credit history, and criminal background information. The Program Operator may reject an applicant based on the information provided.

2. Any guest or household member who causes damages beyond normal wear and tear will be the responsibility of the household. If Housing Quality Standards (HQS) failures are determined to be caused by a tenant or guest, it will be the tenant’s responsibility to correct. If the failure is life-threatening, the tenant must correct the defect within 24 hours. For other tenant-caused failures/defects, the tenant must correct the defect within 30 calendar days (or by a Program-approved extension).

City of Arcata, CA HOME TBRA Program Guidelines Page 13

3. The members of the household must not commit fraud, bribery or any other corrupt or criminal act in connection with the TBRA Program.

Discretion to Deny or Terminate Assistance
In deciding whether to deny or terminate assistance because of action or failure to act by members of a household, the Program Operator has the discretion to consider all of the circumstances in each case, including the seriousness of the case and the extent of participation or culpability of individual household members. The Program Operator may also review the household’s more recent history and record of compliance, and the effects of denial or termination of assistance on other household members who were not involved in the action or failure to act.

The Program Operator may impose, as a condition of continued assistance for other household members, a requirement that household members who participated in or were culpable for the action or failure to act will not reside in the unit. The Program Operator may permit the other members of the household to continue in the TBRA Program.

Term of the TBRA Eligibility Agreement
A newly-issued TBRA Eligibility Agreement will be valid for a period of sixty (60) days from the date of issuance.

Joint Custody of Children
Children who are subject to a joint custody agreement will be considered members of the household if the applicant has at least 50% legal and physical custody of the minor as evidenced by legal documentation.

Alimony and Child Support
Regular alimony and child support payments are counted as income. If the amount of child support or alimony received is less than the amount awarded by the court, the Program Operator will use the amount awarded by the court unless the household can document non-receipt or receipt of a lower amount.

TBRA Housing Authorization Determination for Split Households In cases where a household assisted by the TBRA Program becomes divided into two households due to divorce, legal separation, or the division of the household, the TBRA Program will recertify the household members remaining in the assisted unit to determine eligibility and the level of assistance.

Initial, Annual and Interim Examinations
The Program Operator will perform initial, annual, and interim examinations, as required.

Annual Re-examinations
Households will be notified in writing 120 days in advance of the scheduled effective date of the re-examination. The Program Operator will use the same procedures for obtaining and verifying information that were used at admission. The Program Operator will compare the information the household reports against the household’s

City of Arcata, CA HOME TBRA Program Guidelines Page 14 most recent re-examination to identify any discrepancies and ask the household to explain them.

The following procedures will be followed for each re-examination:
• Re-verification of household income and composition;
• Unit inspection;
• Rent reasonableness verified, if the landlord is requesting a rent increase; • The Landlord and household are notified of tenant contribution increase at least 30 days prior to the effective date.

The head of household, and any additional adult living in the unit must have a current Form HUD-9886, Authorization for Release of Information/Privacy Act Notice, on file any time verification of income is to be determined.

Households and Landlords will be notified of the results of the re-examination and effective date of any changes.

Reporting Changes Between Regularly-Scheduled Recertifications:

If any of the following changes occur, the Resident agrees to advise management and the Program Operator within ten (10) days:
• Any household member moves out of the unit;
• The household proposes to move a new member into the unit; • An adult member of the household who was reported as unemployed on the most recent certification (or recertification) obtains employment; • The household’s income cumulatively changes by ten percent (10%) or more a month.

Interim Examinations
If an interim re-examination indicates that the tenant rent will be reduced or increased by ten percent (10%) or more, changes may take effect the first of the month following the determination, allowing for a 30-day notification to the tenant. If the change is less than ten percent (10%), no interim recertification will be processed, but the documentation will become part of the tenant file.

Households and Landlords will be notified of the results of the re-examination and effective date of any changes.

VI. LEASE ADDENDUM AND HOME RENTAL ASSISTANCE CONTRACT (HRA

CONTRACT) EXECUTION
Lease Addendum
Prior to commencement of the TBRA Program assistance, the Program Operator requires that the Program’s Lease Addendum (ATTACHMENT F) and its Additional Lease Addendum (ATTACHMENT G) be executed by the landlord and tenant.

City of Arcata, CA HOME TBRA Program Guidelines Page 15 HOME Rental Assistance Contract (HRA Contract)
The HRA Contract is a contract between the Program Operator and a Landlord\. In the HRA Contract for the TBRA Program, the Landlord agrees to lease a specified dwelling unit to a specified eligible household, and the TBRA Program agrees to make monthly housing assistance payments to the Landlord for the household. The TBRA Program HRA Contract is based on the HAP Contract used for the Section 8 Housing Assistance Program. A copy of the TBRA Program’s HRA Contract is attached as “ATTACHMENT H.” The term of the lease between the Landlord and the tenant must begin the same date as the beginning date of the TBRA assistance, and may not expire before the term of the TBRA assistance.

Prior to HRA Contract execution, the Program Operator will ensure:
• That the income information is not more than 180 days old for participants; • That Landlords provide their current address of residence or business, and proof of ownership of the property;
• That if there is not an existing lease, the Landlord offers the tenant a one-year lease per HOME requirements, or provide evidence of a rejection of that offer in favor of a shorter lease for at least the HOME assistance term; • That a Letter of Transfer of Authority is available if a management agent manages the property; and
• That Rent Reasonableness has been verified per the following procedures.

Rent Reasonableness
The Program Operator will make a determination as to the reasonableness of the rent the Landlord is proposing in relation to comparable units on the private unassisted market. The market area for rent reasonableness comparables shall include the similar areas of the city or county where the proposed rental is located. If proposed rent is determined to not be reasonable, the Program Operator will disapprove the lease and will not provide assistance until the situation is remedied.

Rent reasonableness determinations are made when units are placed under a HOME TBRA Contract for the first time and when Landlords request annual or special contract rent adjustments.

The Program Operator will certify and document in the tenant file that the approved rent:
• Does not exceed rents charged by the Landlord for comparable unassisted units in the private market; and
• Is reasonable in relation to rents charged by other Landlords for comparable units in the private market.

The items used for rent reasonableness documentation include:
• Square footage;
• Number of bedrooms;
• Number of bathrooms;
• Location;
• Unit type;

City of Arcata, CA HOME TBRA Program Guidelines Page 16 • Quality;
• Amenities;
• Facilities;
• Date built; and
• Management and maintenance services.

Documentation of the rent reasonableness study for each unit leased will be maintained by the Program Operator. Documentation must include a checklist, such as HUD’s online at https://www.hudexchange.info/resource/2098/home-rentreasonableness-checklist-and-certification/ The Program Operator will maintain a file(s) that includes comparable data on unassisted units in the private market, and will compare the subject unit against selected units in the same area with similar characteristics. Adjustments will be made for favorable and unfavorable differences between the subject unit and the comparables. The information on unassisted units will be updated on an annual basis.

Lease Approval / Disapproval
After the Program Operator has reviewed the HOME Rental Assistance Program Request for Unit Approval form, the proposed lease agreement, documented rent reasonableness, and conducted an inspection and passed the unit, the Program Operator may approve the lease. If the Program Operator determines that the lease cannot be approved (e.g., fails rent reasonableness), the Landlord and household will be notified, and the reason(s) provided. The Program Operator will explain the problems to the Landlord and suggest how they may be corrected. If the problem can be corrected, the Program Operator will continue processing the HOME Rental Assistance Program Request for Unit Approval.

If the problem cannot be corrected after negotiations with the Landlord, the Program Operator will inform the tenant that the lease is not approved and that the tenant should continue to search for eligible housing.

HOME TBRA Contract Execution Requirement
Prior to HOME TBRA contract execution, the Program Operator will ensure that the income information is not more than 120 days old for participants or not more than 60 days old for new admissions.

VII. HOUSING QUALITY STANDARDS
Policy
No unit will be placed on the TBRA Program unless Housing Quality Standards (HQS) and applicable local building codes are met, in accordance with 24 CFR 982.401. The units must continue to meet these standards as long as the household is on the TBRA Program. Lead-based paint requirements will apply to all units constructed prior to 1978. The TBRA Program adheres to the acceptability criteria in

City of Arcata, CA HOME TBRA Program Guidelines Page 17 HUD Section 8 Housing Assistance program regulations for Housing Quality Standards. Current HQS Inspection Forms are attached as “ATTACHMENT J”.

All Housing Quality Inspections will be performed by the Program Operator (or its designee).

There are four types of inspections:
• Initial
• Annual
• Special
• Move-out: Move-out inspections will be completed within 15 working days when requested by either the tenant or Landlord.

Clearing Deficiencies
At initial and annual inspections, the Landlord will be given not more than 30 days to correct the items noted as “fail”. Extenuating circumstances could, with Program Operator approval, extend the time limit allowed to correct the items. The Landlord may be allowed two re-inspections for repair work to be completed (at inspector’s discretion) depending upon the complexity of work to be done. If, after the inspections, the unit still fails HQS, the household will be required to find another unit if it wishes to remain on the TBRA Program.

Landlord Fails to Correct HQS Items
If the HRA Contract is terminated due to the Landlord’s failure or refusal to correct the failed items, and the current TBRA Program tenant was required to move to another unit to continue receiving TBRA Program assistance, the Program Operator will not approve the vacated unit for a new TBRA Program tenant for a minimum of one year, and only upon receiving a written assurance from the Landlord that they will fulfill the requirements of the minimum HQS in the future.

Request for Special Unit Inspection
A Landlord, tenant, or the Program Operator may request to have the tenant’s unit inspected prior to the re-examination date. The Program Operator or its designee will schedule the inspection within ten (10) working days of the request.

VIII. DENIAL OR TERMINATION OF ASSISTANCE
Tenant Fraud
If the household has knowingly committed fraud in connection with the TBRA Program, the Program Operator may terminate assistance and cancel the HRA contract.

If the household has misrepresented income, assets, or allowances, which would have caused an increase in the tenant portion of the rent, the Program Operator will make every effort to recover any overpayment made because of tenant fraud or abuse.

City of Arcata, CA HOME TBRA Program Guidelines Page 18 If the household intentionally, willingly, and knowingly commits fraud or is involved in any other illegal scheme with the Landlord, the Program Operator may deny or terminate assistance.

Landlord Fraud
If a Landlord has committed fraud or misrepresentation in connection with the TBRA Program, the Program Operator will terminate the HOME Rental Assistance (HRA) Contract and review the circumstances and household’s involvement to determine if the household is eligible to relocate to another unit with continuation of assistance.

The Program Operator may bar the Landlord from participation in the TBRA Program for breach of the HRA Contract.

The Program Operator will make every effort to recover any overpayments made as a result of Landlord fraud or abuse.

Lease Violations
Termination of tenancy will be permitted only if a tenant has serious or repeated violations of the terms and conditions of the lease.

The following criteria will be used to decide if a serious or repeated violation of the lease will result in termination of assistance:
• If the Landlord terminates tenancy through court action for serious or repeated violation of the lease;
• If the Landlord notifies the household of termination of tenancy for serious or repeated lease violations, and the household moves from the unit prior to the completion of court action;
• If there are police reports, neighborhood complaints or other third-party information, that has been verified by the Program Operator; • Other “good cause” exists for termination of the tenancy; • Information that has been verified by the Program Operator; or • Other “good cause” exists for termination of the tenancy.

Dispute Resolution and Appeals Procedure
Any applicant denied assistance from the Program has the right to appeal.

Complaints concerning the Program should be made to the Program Operator first. If unresolved in this manner, the complaint or appeal must be made in writing and filed with the Sponsor. The Sponsor will then schedule a meeting with the Assistance Review Committee. Their written response will be made within thirty (30) working days. If the applicant is not satisfied with the Committee's decision, a request for an appeal may be filed with the Sponsor’s governing body. Final appeal must be filed in writing with HCD within one year after denial.

Asset Inclusions and Exclusions
ASSET INCLUSIONS:

From 24 CFR section 5.603:

Net family assets.
(1) Net family assets is the net cash value of all assets owned by the family, after deducting reasonable costs that would be incurred in disposing real property, savings, stocks, bonds, and other forms of capital investment.
(2) In determining net family assets, PHAs or owners, as applicable, must include the value of any business or family assets disposed of by an applicant or tenant for less than fair market value (including a disposition in trust, but not in a foreclosure or bankruptcy sale) during the two years preceding the date of application for the program or reexamination, as applicable, in excess of the consideration received therefor. In the case of a disposition as part of a separation or divorce settlement, the disposition will not be considered to be for less than fair market value if the applicant or tenant receives consideration not measurable in dollar terms. Negative equity in real property or other investments does not prohibit the owner from selling the property or other investments, so negative equity alone would not justify excluding the property or other investments from family assets.
[88 FR 9656, Feb. 14, 2023; 88 FR 12560, Feb. 28, 2023] ASSET EXCLUSIONS:

From 24 CFR Section 5.603 (continued):
(3) Excluded from the calculation of net family assets are:
(i) The value of necessary items of personal property;
(ii) The combined value of all non-necessary items of personal property if the combined total value does not exceed $50,000 (which amount will be adjusted by HUD in accordance with the Consumer Price Index for Urban Wage Earners and Clerical Workers);
(iii) The value of any account under a retirement plan recognized as such by the Internal Revenue Service, including individual retirement arrangements (IRAs), employer retirement plans, and retirement plans for self-employed individuals; (iv) The value of real property that the family does not have the effective legal authority to sell in the jurisdiction in which the property is located;

City of Arcata, CA HOME TBRA Program Guidelines Page 27 (v) Any amounts recovered in any civil action or settlement based on a claim of malpractice, negligence, or other breach of duty owed to a family member arising out of law, that resulted in a family member being a person with a disability; (vi) The value of any Coverdell education savings account under section 530 of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, the value of any qualified tuition program under section 529 of such Code, the value of any Achieving a Better Life Experience (ABLE) account authorized under Section 529A of such Code, and the value of any “baby bond” account created, authorized, or funded by Federal, State, or local government.
(vii) Interests in Indian trust land;
(viii) Equity in a manufactured home where the family receives assistance under 24 CFR part 982;
(ix) Equity in property under the Homeownership Option for which a family receives assistance under 24 CFR part 982;
(x) Family Self-Sufficiency Accounts; and
(xi) Federal tax refunds or refundable tax credits for a period of 12 months after receipt by the family.
(4) In cases where a trust fund has been established and the trust is not revocable by, or under the control of, any member of the family or household, the trust fund is not a family asset and the value of the trust is not included in the calculation of net family assets, so long as the fund continues to be held in a trust that is not revocable by, or under the control of, any member of the family or household.

Program Eligibility Requirements
This program is designed for households whose monthly rent and utility costs exceed 30% of their adjusted household income. Prior to occupancy, an applicant must qualify under all HOME eligibility criteria.

Income Limits are established by HUD and adjusted annually The household’s annual income may not exceed the applicable HOME income limit for the household size.

However, at least 90% of households served under this Program must be at or below 60% AMI.

Applying the Preferences
At the time of application, the applicant household certifies whether or not it is eligible for a preference. All information supplied in support of the applicant’s eligibility for a preference must be verified. This information will be verified at the time of application.

Wait List

Applicants who apply and do not meet the preference criteria will be informed that they will be assisted on a first-come, first-served basis after all preferences have been assisted.

Applicants claiming a preference which cannot be verified will be considered a nonpreference applicant, and reflected as such on the wait list.

City of Arcata, CA HOME TBRA Program Guidelines Page 49 Occupancy Standards
Occupancy standards are based on the following:

Rental-Assisted Unit Number of Persons
Bedroom Size Minimum Maximum
One Bedroom 1 2
Two Bedroom 2 4
Three Bedroom 3 6
Four Bedroom 4 8
In addition, household composition is taken into account and unit size is also based on the following:

b) Will count all persons under the age of 18 anticipated to reside in a unit (Examples include children expected to be born to pregnant women, children who are in the process of being adopted by an adult, children whose custody is being obtained by an adult, children who are subject to a joint custody agreement but who live in the apartment at least 50% of the time, foster children who will reside in the apartment, children who are temporarily absent due to placement in a foster home);
c) Will count live-in attendants; and
d) Will count children who are away at school, but live with the household during school recesses.

Participant Relocation
A recipient household may move to a new unit during the lease term only:
• When a mutual agreement between the City of Arcata and the recipient has been signed; or
• For good cause (the recipient must provide documentation such as police reports, court orders, etc.); and
• Within the Program service area as described on the cover page of these Program Guidelines
In either case, the recipient must provide proper notice (30-day written notice) to the City of Arcata and the Property Manager prior to initiating a move.

Unit Inspections
Unit(s) will be inspected within 30 days prior to the first assistance payment, and then annually by the Program Operator. However, HCD is authorized to inspect the unit(s) at any time. Residents will be notified in writing 48 hours in advance of unit inspections.

Annual inspections are performed by the Program Operator to determine whether the unit continues to meet minimum HQS standards and to ensure the units are safe, clean and free of damages.

Annual Recertification
Recertification is the process by which all information, income, assets and certain expenses regarding the applicant(s) eligibility for TBRA assistance is reviewed and the amount of that assistance is re-computed. The City of Arcata shall provide reminder notices to residents informing them of their responsibility to provide information about changes in household

City of Arcata, CA HOME TBRA Program Guidelines Page 50 income or composition that are necessary to properly complete an annual recertification.

The notification shall be in writing and shall include a list of information that residents are required to bring with them to their recertification interview. This list shall include documentation needed to support the recipients’ household income as well as documentation to support any deductions they may be eligible to receive.

All recipient households are subject to annual recertification. The City of Arcata shall annually recertify all tenants that receive TBRA assistance. This is not an option but a requirement to receive assistance.

The annual recertification process begins 120 days prior to the recipient household’s effective assistance/move-in date. Recipients will interview with the City of Arcata or its designee to determine continued eligibility on the project. Information reported in the interview will be verified by sending out third-party verification forms. The recertification process is a time-sensitive process. Timely completion includes the issuance of the required 30-day notice of a rent change.

The annual recertification must be completed by the 10th day of the eleventh month following the recipients’ last annual recertification or assistance/move-in certification.

Interim Recertification
To ensure that recipients pay rents commensurate with their ability to pay, recipients must supply information requested by the City of Arcata for use in an interim recertification of household income and composition in accordance with HOME TBRA requirements.

1. Recipients must notify management when:
a. A household member moves out of the unit;
b. The household proposes to move a new member into the unit; c. The household’s income cumulatively increases by ten percent (10%) or more per month.
d. An adult member of the household who becomes unemployed or employed.

2. Recipients may request an interim recertification if circumstances occur since the last recertification that may affect their TBRA assistance payment. Changes a recipient may report include the following:
a. Decreases in income including, but not limited to, loss of employment, reduction in number of hours worked by an employed household member, and loss or reduction of welfare income;
b. Increases in allowances including, but not limited to, increased medical expenses, and higher child care costs; and
c. Other changes affecting the calculation of a household’s annual or adjusted income including, but not limited to, a household member turning 62 years old, becoming a full-time student, or becoming a person with a disability.

If the City of Arcata learns that a recipient household has failed to report a change in income or household composition, the following steps will be taken:
a. Refer the recipient to the lease and/or TBRA Eligibility Agreement clauses that require the interim recertification;
b. Give the recipient ten (10) calendar days to respond to the notice; and c. Inform the recipient that his or her assistance may change.

City of Arcata, CA HOME TBRA Program Guidelines Page 51 Once the recipient household responds to the notice and supplies the required information, or if a recipient household reports a change and initiates an interim recertification, the City of Arcata will process the recertification and will implement changes as follows:
a. TBRA Assistance Increases (tenant share decreases): the City of Arcata will implement any resulting TBRA assistance increase effective the first of the month following the date that the change/action occurred.
b. TBRA Assistance Decreases (tenant share increases): Any resulting TBRA assistance decrease will be implemented effective the first day of the month following a 30-day notice.

If the recipient household fails to respond within ten (10) calendar days, the City of Arcata may terminate assistance with a written 30-day notice.

Violence Against Women Act (VAWA)
Domestic Violence includes felony or misdemeanor crimes of violence committed by a current or former spouse of the victim, by a person with whom the victim shares a child in common, by a person who is cohabitating with or has cohabitated with the victim as a spouse, by a person similarly situated to a spouse of the victim under domestic or family violence laws of the jurisdiction receiving grant monies, or by any other person against an adult or youth victim who is protected from that person’s acts under the domestic or family violence laws of the jurisdiction.

Dating Violence means violence committed by a person:

A) who is or has been in a social relationship of a romantic or intimate nature with the victim; and
B) where the existence of such a relationship shall be determined based on a consideration of the following factors:
(i) the length of the relationship;
(ii) the type of relationship; and
(iii) the frequency of interaction between the persons involved in the relationship.

Stalking means:

A) (i) to follow, pursue, or repeatedly commit acts with the intent to kill, injure, harass or intimidate; or (ii) to place under surveillance with the intent to kill, injure, or intimidate another person; and
B) in the course of, or as a result of, such following, pursuit, surveillance or repeatedly committed acts to a place a person in reasonable fear of the death of, or serious bodily injury to, or to cause substantial emotional harm to (i) that person; (ii) a member of the immediate family of that person; or (iii) the spouse or intimate partner of that person.

Immediate Family Member means, with respect to a person:

A) a spouse, parent, brother or sister, or child of the person, or an individual to whom that person stands in loco parentis (in place of a parent); or B) any other person living in the household of that person and related to that person by blood or marriage.

The VAWA protections apply to families applying for or receiving rental assistance payments under the HOME TBRA Program. An applicant cannot be denied admission because he/she has been a victim of domestic violence, dating violence or stalking.

Domestic violence, dating violence or stalking is not good cause for the eviction of the

City of Arcata, CA HOME TBRA Program Guidelines Page 52 victim of that violence. An incident of actual or threatened domestic violence, dating violence, or stalking does not qualify as a serious or repeated violation of the lease nor does it constitute good cause for terminating the assistance, tenancy or occupancy rights of the victim. Furthermore, criminal activity directly relating to domestic violence, dating violence or stalking is not grounds for terminating the victim’s tenancy. The Lease Addendum must contain language that makes it clear that domestic violence, dating violence or stalking is not good cause for evicting the victim of that violence. Applicants who are or have been victims of domestic violence or stalking or encouraged to complete the HUD approved Certification of Domestic Violence, Dating Violence or Stalking (Form HUD-91066). The Program Operator will allow the landlord to bifurcate or divide the lease as a matter of law so that certain offending tenants can be evicted or removed while the remaining household member’s lease and occupancy rights are allowed to remain intact.

Eligibility Agreement
The City of Arcata will issue an Eligibility Agreement to the recipient which will allow the recipient to remain in their unit and/or locate an acceptable unit, when a recipient’s current unit is not eligible, based on its condition or lack of rent reasonableness.

Special Accommodations and Compliance with Section 504 Requirements The City of Arcata is committed to providing all persons with equal access to its services, activities, education, and employment regardless of race, color, sex, sexual orientation, ethnic origin, gender identity, religion, disability, or age of any member of an applicant household. For a reasonable accommodation, please contact the City of Arcata.

STAFF REPORT – CITY COUNCIL MEETING
October 1, 2025
TO: Honorable Mayor and City Council Members
FROM: Netra Khatri, City Engineer
PREPARER: David Caisse, Assistant City Engineer
DATE: September 23, 2025
TITLE: Approve the Fiscal Year 2025/26 Capital Improvement Program (CIP) Book.

RECOMMENDATION:

Approve the Fiscal Year (FY) 2025/26 Capital Improvement Program (CIP) book, including previously completed projects, current projects, and future projects.

INTRODUCTION:

The City’s Capital Improvement Program (CIP) is a planning and budgeting tool that identifies major infrastructure projects, their funding sources, and anticipated schedules. It provides a roadmap for investing in the City’s long-term needs—such as transportation, utilities, and public facilities— while balancing available resources. In doing so, the CIP helps ensure projects are prioritized, coordinated, and aligned with the community’s goals and future growth.

BACKGROUND:

The City of Arcata’s Capital Improvement Program (CIP) is a five-year planning tool used to forecast and prioritize capital needs across the community. While funding for the first year is formally adopted and allocated, the remaining four years serve as a guide for planning future projects. Because factors such as the tax base, grant opportunities, community priorities, and regulatory requirements can shift over time, the CIP is designed to be flexible and dynamic.

Although the program continually evolves, the document itself is formally updated once every year or two alongside the city budget to align with current goals and available resources.

DISCUSSION:

With the adoption of the City’s Budget on July 1, 2025, staff provided the Council with a brief presentation highlighting recent CIP accomplishments on September 17, 2025. The presentation touched on projects that have been completed, those currently under construction, and several new projects about to begin. Due to minor errors in the CIP document that were located the week of September 17, the Council did not approve the document at the time of the presentation. Staff have now made the needed corrections and are presenting the finalized CIP book for approval by the Council.

BUDGET/FISCAL IMPACT:

There is no direct fiscal impact associated with the CIP document, as it has been developed in alignment with and is fully consistent with the City’s FY 2025/2026 Adopted Budget.

RECOMMENDED COUNCIL ACTION:

Motion to approve the FY 25/26 Capital Improvement Program (CIP) book, including previously completed projects, current projects, and future projects. Consent Calendar vote.

OVERVIEW
The City of Arcata’s Capital Improvement Program (CIP) is a long-term, multi-year planning tool used to identify the construction, repair, and replacement of major city assets. The CIP is both a fiscal and strategic device that allows for the financing, planning, scoping, and prioritization of all capital projects.

The document provides cost estimates, funding sources, phases, and timing of each project. Although the CIP has been developed to forecast capital needs over a five-year term, only the first year has been adopted. Dollars in the first year of the CIP have been allocated for spending, while the remaining four years are provided for planning purposes. Variables such as tax base, grant availability, priorities and sometimes, changes in regulatory requirements/mandates, make it difficult to definitively plan too far into the future. For this reason, the CIP is considered a dynamic program that is continually changing and being edited; however, this document is updated only once annually (concurrently with the Budget) as part of a City-wide planning process based on current goals and available finances.

The primary purpose of the CIP is to assist in the orderly implementation of the broad and comprehensive goals of the City’s Adopted General Plan. Prior to becoming a CIP project, each project is brought to the Planning Commission to verify consistency with policies found within the General Plan.

As the foundation for the City of Arcata, the General Plan provides a vision of how the city will look, function, provide services and manage resources. The mechanism that the city uses to manage those assets and fulfill that vision, is the CIP.

The City of Arcata is constantly growing and developing and as a result, new assets are constructed each year. Over time, those assets begin to degrade resulting in the need for maintenance and/or repair. As one of the earliest cities in California, the city must continually work to replace its aging infrastructure. Although the CIP does not track the smaller day-to-day repairs, the larger repairs (or replacements) often make it into the CIP due to the amount of planning needed to finance larger capital improvement projects. For the purpose of planning and tracking however, projects which total
roughly $100,000 or more in cost, will make it into the CIP.

PROCESS
In general, the CIP is developed using the following process:

PROJECT SUBMISSION: The first step in developing the CIP is project submission. This “call for projects” generally happens early in the calendar year. Some projects arise solely from one department based on frequency of repairs, location, size and function while others are a result of a collaboration with multiple departments. Potential projects may develop based on a need, Council goals, growth, opportunity (such as grants), and sometimes, as a result of a new regulation or

mandate. Projects that make it into the CIP must be consistent with the City of Arcata’s General Plan and have a funding source.

SCORING AND PRIORITIZATION: Once the projects have been added to the CIP, they are scored and evaluated in order to assist with the prioritization of funding. The overall score is based on three primary categories; General Importance; Need; and Timing. The scores are numerical in value with higher scores representing priority projects. And although projects are scored numerically, a higher score does not necessarily determine the level, or potential for funding for each fiscal year.

Below is a list of the General Importance category choices. This category is meant to identify the various reasons why many projects make it into the CIP. Some projects are required for health and safety, some for recreational purposes, and some for other reasons. Oftentimes, multiple reasons are a factor for why projects are created. Below are a list of “General Importance” factors for why projects are listed in the CIP. The factors in this category are listed in order from highest to lowest score with values ranging from 1 to 5. Because many projects make it to the CIP for multiple reasons, multiple factors (as applicable) may be selected. When more than one factor is selected, their combined values become the total score for this category. The factors below are selected if, “The project…”  Is related to health and safety (5);
 Is necessary to maintain (or improve) an existing public service or desired level of standard (5);  Is a regulatory or mandated requirement (4);
 Supports/encourages climate change adaptation (4);
 Has previous funding allocations and/or future grant opportunities (3);  Aligns with adopted plans and policies of the city (3);  Aligns with specific Council and/or Department goals (2);  Has a social, cultural, or aesthetic benefit to the residents and visitors (2);  Has the potential for generate revenue or provide a return on investment (2);  Reduces energy consumption, operational or maintenance costs (1); and  Has a regional benefit (1).

The next category is Need. This category has fewer choices and is intended to capture the need of the project as it relates to City operations. Similar to the previous category, the choices are listed in order from highest to lowest value with scores ranging from 2 to 8. Only one choice may be selected for this category.
 Asset is required for regular operations (8);
 Asset is needed for Emergency Operations (8);
 Operations are limited without asset (4); and
 Asset is optional (2).

The final category is Timing. This category helps to identify the timeframe in which the project needs to be completed. The choices are listed in order from highest to lowest value with scores ranging from 2 to

10. Only one choice can be selected for this category.
 Urgent: Cannot be delayed (10);
 Necessary: Needed within the next 3 years (8);
 Desirable: Needed within the next 4-6 years (6);

 Delayed/Deferrable: Needed within the next 7-10 years (4); and  Developmental: Research or planning level project and/or construction (2).

The scores from each of the three categories are totaled and combined to give a final, overall score.

Final scores with values ranging between 0 and 10 are considered “Low”, from 11 to 20, “Medium”, from 21 to 30 “High” and scores greater than 30, are considered to be a “Very High” priority.

DETERMINE FUNDING SOURCES/OPPORTUNITIES: The third step involves an analysis of possible funding sources. Depending on the size and nature of the proposed project, the funding may need to be combined using multiple revenue sources such as General Funds, taxes, enterprise funds, grants, and other possible funding sources and/or may need to be phased (or split) among multiple funding years.

PLAN PREPARATION: The next step in the process is to develop a project plan. Some projects require multiple phases for planning, public outreach, design, and construction. These phases can sometimes take many years from start to finish. An example of a project like this might be a large scale project that requires extensive planning and coordination with multiple entities, cultural and/or environmental studies, and extensive project costs (which often require allocations from multiple CIP cycles). Adversely, some projects do not require as much planning however, they often still require some level of design and construction. An example of this kind of project might be an annual rehabilitation project such as our annual paving project. In this case, there is usually only a single design/construction phase that is updated annually solely based on the location of the improvements and funds available. Regardless of which type of project involved, the plan preparation step considers the total project phasing needs from start to finish.

REVIEW AND ADOPTION: Once completed, the draft CIP is circulated to staff for review. At this stage, the proposed funding sources and amounts are verified with the proposed Budget and included in the Budget booklet to Council…for review and adopted.

CIP FUNDING SOURCES
Local government resources are by nature, limited and many funding sources are restricted in use and are often subject to discretionary State (or Local) appropriations. For this reason, the City of Arcata uses a combination of internal and external funding mechanisms. Thus far, the City has been successful in seeking out external funding sources which help make up the CIP budget. Below are various internal and external funding sources and amounts, which make up the majority of the CIP budget this fiscal year.

Internal Sources
The following are the City’s major internal sources of funding for capital investment.

FUND 101 - THE GENERAL FUND ($1.66 M): The General Fund is used to account for the general operations of the City such as Police, City Administration, etc. It is used to account for all financial resources, including property tax, sales tax, business license tax, transient occupancy tax, license and General and other
(Internal),

permits, fines and forfeits, except those required to be accounted for in another fund. Notable sources within the General Fund that fund, or supplement funds for various projects are:

MEASURE G ($1.03 M): In November of 2008, Arcata voters approved ballot initiative Measure G–supporting public infrastructure (streets) and public services through a 3/4 cent sales tax increase. Over the past 17 years, Measure G has been instrumental in driving progress. The city has invested approximately $18 million from Measure G into transportationrelated improvements, supporting projects with a combined value of more than $30 million.

MEASURE H ($633 K): In November of 2024, Arcata voters approved ballot initiative Measure H. The revenue generated from this ¾ percent “general” sales tax helps funds programs related to emergency services, climate change, homelessness, mental health, infrastructure, and parks.

FUND 245 – REDEVELOPMENT FUNDS ($750 K): These funds typically come from increases in property taxes within the redevelopment area(s) and are set aside to pay for things like street and sidewalk improvements, building affordable housing, supporting local businesses, and property cleanup. The Successor Agency to the Arcata Community Development Agency gets its funding based on payment schedules (called Recognized Obligation Payment Schedules, or ROPS) that must be approved by both the Successor Agency and the Oversight Board.

FUND 666 – STORMWATER DRAINAGE ($200 K): There is currently no revenue source for this fund. Funds in this account have been subsidized from other accounts (i.e. General Fund) for use on projects related to stormwater conveyance and/or treatment.

FUND 214 – CONSTRUCTION FUND TAX ($75 K): Funds that accumulate from a fee charged to the building permit for construction of multi-family structures. These funds are to be used for the acquisition, development, and/or rehabilitation of public parks.

Enterprise Funds
Enterprise Funds account for the financing of services to the general public where all or a substantial portion of the costs involved are paid in the form of user charges or fees for such services. These funds are used for operational expenses and Capital projects only.

FUND 661 - WATER FUND ($10.67 M): This fund is used to account for all revenue and expenses related to the operation and maintenance of the City’s water system, including water system maintenance, and water treatment and distribution.

FUND 662 - WASTEWATER FUND ($565 K): This fund is used to account for all income and expenses related to the operation and maintenance of the City’s wastewater system, including wastewater collection, and wastewater treatment.

External Sources
The City continues to aggressively seek grants for a wide variety of projects and needs. Although grants are only available for specific purposes and are often competitive or cyclical, they represent a significant portion of the City’s CIP funding. Grants are valuable to fund new improvements allowing internal

funding to remain available for existing assets and often, necessary for matching or leveraging funding requirements for grants. The following are the City’s major external sources of funding for capital investment.

FUND 207 - GAS TAX ($50 K): These funds are used to account for monies received and expended from the State Gas Tax allocations. These monies are specified for work on street projects within the City.

FUND 208 - SB-1 (RMRA) ($347 K): Fund used to account for monies received and expended from the State’s Road Maintenance and Rehabilitation Account for respective street projects.

FUND 210 – STATE AND FEDERAL TRANSPORTATION GRANT FUNDS ($26.76 M): This fund group is made up of multiple state and federal transportation related sources. This year’s CIP includes transportation funds from the State Transportation Improvement Program (STIP), the Sustainable Transportation Planning Grant (STPG), Rebuilding American Infrastructure with Sustainability and Equity (RAISE), the Active Transportation Program (ATP), the State Highway Operation and Protection Program (SHOPP), and the Highway Safety Improvement Program (HSIP).

FUND 219 - RSTP FUND ($135 K): Regional Surface Transportation Program (RSTP) funds originate from the federal excise tax on gasoline. The State of California distributes the funds to regional agencies and counties based on population.

FUND 265 – FEDERAL GRANTS ($200 K): Funds from non-CDBG federal grant programs are accounted for in Fund 265. This includes funds provided by the U.S.Environmental Protection Agency.

FUND 233 - AFFORDABLE HOUSING AND SUSTAINABLE COMMUNITIES PROGRAM (AHSC) ($1.01 M): Grants from the Federal AHSC Program that the City applies for and receives are budgeted and accounted for in this fund.

OTHER PARKS GRANT ($250 K): The funds received from the California State Parks grant for the 2025/26 fiscal year are not tracked in a separate account, as they are directly tied to park improvement projects (the Carlson – Mad River Park Trail Project). While they are shown separately here for transparency, these funds are ultimately deposited into and reported as part of the General Fund (101).

CLEAN WATER STATE REVOLVING FUND (CWSRF - $16.5 M): Clean Water State Revolving Fund (CWSRF) program, through the State Water Resources Control Board, offers grants and low cost financing for a wide variety of water quality projects. The funds received from the CWSRF grant for the 2025/26 fiscal year are not tracked in a separate account, as they are directly tied to sewer improvement projects (the Sewer Inflow & Infiltration Reduction Project and the Wastewater Treatment Plant Reconfiguration Project). While they are shown separately here for transparency, these funds are ultimately deposited into and reported as part of the Wastewater Fund (662).

FEMA HAZARD MITIGATION GRANT PROGRAM (HMGP - $864 K): Hazard Mitigation Grant Program, Administered by CalOES, provides funding to state, local, tribal and territorial governments so they can develop hazard mitigation plans and rebuild in a way that reduces, or mitigates, future disaster losses in their communities. The funds received from the HMPG for the 2025/26 fiscal year are not tracked in a separate account, as they are directly tied to a water improvement project (the Plunkett Waterline Improvement Project). While they are shown separately here for transparency, these funds are ultimately deposited into and reported as part of the Water Fund (661).

Other Financing Sources
Other Financing Sources refer to revenue streams and funding mechanisms that are not derived from traditional taxes or service charges. For the purposes of this CIP document, these sources primarily consist of loans or financial contributions from partnering agencies. While intergovernmental aid— such as grants and other transportation infrastructure funding—would typically be classified under this category, it has been presented separately in order to highlight the City’s success in securing grant funding.

ENERGY CONSERVATION ASSISTANCE ACT (ECAA) LOW-INTEREST LOAN - $518 K): The California Energy Commission’s ECAA offers low-interest loans to finance energy efficiency and energy generation projects, energy storage systems, and electric vehicle charging infrastructure.

CAL POLY HUMBOLDT ($3.00 M): Cal Poly Humboldt contributes financially to the City of Arcata through project partnerships and supporting city revenues. The University is currently providing financial support to two CIP projects (The Annie & Mary Trail, and the Sunset and US 101 Interchange Project).

Rehabilitation and maintenance to prepare the well for emergency use when needed. New Piping/check valve, bushings, VFD, transducer
The well is not producing efficiently and discharges heavy iron and manganese concentrations as well as high tubidity. The well could be a redundant provider of water for the system in an emergency but the casing and screens need to be brushed and Air Lifted as well as a drawdown test perfomed.

The pump will deliver 375–390 gpm—exceeding the target flow of 347 gpm. The recommended solution is a 50 hp pump (running at ~44 hp) priced at $8,000, to be operated with a variable frequency drive (VFD).

This is a citywide sewer main rehabilitation project to reduce stormwater Inflow & Infiltration (I&I) into our sewer system. This project includes, approximately 75,478 linear feet of sewer lining and lateral replacement, 12,313 feet of trench excavation and 253 lower lateral replacements.

Based on WWTP operating costs as compared to inflows, it is estimated that it costs the City approx. $3.42 M to treat the 114 million gallons (MG) of I&I that enters our system each year. According to a similar project completed in 2018, this project has the potential to reduce this number by nearly 50 MG.

Improvements to the intersection of Sunset Avenue and LK Wood Boulevard to improve safety for motorists, bicyclists and pedestrians. Intersection improvement alternatives include a roundabout or raised islands.

Many large housing developments have been constructed or are planned in the Sunset/Alliance neighborhoods and traffic volumes are alre already high, especially when CalPoly is in session. Improvements are needed to improve safety and reduce confusion while manuvering through the intersection.
