PROCLAMATION
Recognizing September 6-12, 2026 as
SUICIDE PREVENTION WEEK
WHEREAS, suicide is a national and statewide public health problem, and suicide prevention is a national and statewide responsibility; and
WHEREAS, suicide is the 10th leading cause of death in the United States, the 2nd leading cause of death among ages 15-34; and

WHEREAS, over 90% of the people who die by suicide have a diagnosable and treatable mental health condition, although often that condition was not recognized or treated; and WHEREAS, organizations such as the American Foundation for Suicide Prevention are dedicated to saving lives and bringing hope to those affected by suicide, through research, education, advocacy, and resources for those who have lost someone to suicide or who struggle, and urge that we:
1. Recognize suicide as a preventable national and state public health problem and declare suicide prevention to be a priority.

5. Encourage initiatives in Arcata based on the goals contained in the bold, 10-year National Strategy for Suicide Prevention and the California Suicide Prevention Plan.

7. Develop and implement strategies to improve and increase access to quality mental health, substance abuse, and suicide prevention services and programs.
8. Continue advocacy to ensure we can reimagine a comprehensive suicide, mental health, and substance use crisis response system that builds on the historic new 988 number for the Suicide and Crisis Lifeline.

6 RECREATION DIVISION
The Recreation Division provides a wide array of public recreational programs and community events throughout the year. In addition, the Recreation staff coordinates the City’s Special Events, Film, and Plaza Vending Permits and the Bayside Park Community Garden applications as well as overseeing the Arcata Marsh Interpretive Center programming and staff.
Recreation Division staff is responsible for all City facility and field rentals including the Arcata Community Center, D Street Neighborhood Center, Redwood Lodge and Lounge, Redwood Park Picnic area, the Arcata Ballpark and Sports Complex, Pacific Union Field, Larson Park tennis courts, bocce ball courts and gazebo, Carlson Park event area and pickleball courts, and Library Conference Room.
The Division also serves as a clearinghouse for information regarding activities and services offered by other City Departments and local service providers. The Recreation Division employs four full-time and numerous part-time staff. Community volunteers support City programs including Youth Basketball, Drop-In Activities, Community Events and Play Center.
Programs, Classes, and Community Events
The Recreation Division offers both seasonal programs such as Summer Camp and Youth Basketball as well as year-round programs including Gymnastics, Ceramics, Play Center, Drop-In Activities, and a variety of contract classes.
The City of Arcata Recreation Division complies with the Americans with Disabilities Act (ADA), which prohibits discrimination based on a disability. The Recreation Division makes reasonable accommodations in recreation programs to enable participation by individuals with a disability who meet essential eligibility requirements.
Recreation programs offered by Arcata Recreation are available in the most integrated setting appropriate for each individual.
Recreation Division programs and classes generated $360,302 in total revenue during 2025. Many children and adults register for classes or programs multiple times throughout the year. Since its inception in 2012, online registration continues to be well utilized.
7 Creating Community
Bayside Park Community Garden
Individuals and families can rent 4x25-foot garden plots to grow organic fruit, vegetables, and flowers for non-commercial use. Each plot rented for $100 per year for Arcata Residents and $113.50 for non-residents. There are 36 garden plots, and they were all rented in 2025.
Kid’s Bike Rodeo and Humboldt Bike Month
In 2025, the Annual Arcata Kid’s Bike Rodeo worked in collaboration with the Engineering Department as well as local bike company Wildtrail Tours. The event took place at Fuente Nueva School near St. Mary’s Church off Janes Rd.
On the day of the event, there were 12 volunteers and about 60 participants with their families participating in various bike safety activities. The Recreation Division distributed 12 new helmets to youth participants and provided helmet checks. Arcata Police Department assisted by doing bike licenses and there was a bike mechanic on site doing bicycle safety inspections.
In addition to Kid’s Bike Rodeo, the Recreation Division also assisted Bike Month Humboldt.
Challenge Course
Located at Redwood Park, the Challenge Course remains a community resource for team building, personal development, and leadership growth. In 2025, the City received two inquiries for Challenge Course use; however, no reservations were finalized. Limited use was due in part to scheduling conflicts with summer camp programming, as requested timeframes overlapped with existing Recreation Division operations. Increased promotion and outreach may help generate future bookings. The course remains available for schools, youth groups, and organizations interested in team building and experiential learning opportunities.
Holiday Craft Market
The 24th Annual Holiday Craft Market was held on Saturday, December 13 and Sunday, December 14. The event included 54 vendors. Entry to the event was $2 per person on a donation basis. All entry fees gave visitors an opportunity to win door prizes graciously donated by the vendors. Items were grouped up into 8 different baskets which increased overall value of the prize for winners. To sell additional raffle tickets, the division would have needed a temporary gaming license, which is recommended next year. Approximately 1,750 community members attended the two-day event. Shoppers enjoyed browsing for jewelry, hand crafted clothing, hand-blown glass, puzzles, pottery and much more. There was 1 food vendor utilizing the facility’s indoor kitchen as well as 2 food vendors outside the facility with food tents set up. Entertainment showcased five volunteer music performances. The proceeds from the event, totaling $8,020, supported the Arcata Recreation Youth Development Scholarship Fund.
Lantern Ceremony
In memory of the victims of the atomic bombing of Hiroshima and Nagasaki, the Floating Lantern Ceremony brings together community members and multiple community organizations on the banks of Klopp Lake to hear musical performances, remembrances and float lanterns on the lake in memory of those passed. This event is made possible by the collaboration of City of Arcata, Humboldt Buddhist Peace Fellowship, GI Rights Hotline, Humboldt Unitarian Universalist Fellowship for Social Action Committee, Shinnyo en, Veterans For
8 Peace, Humboldt Friends Meeting (Quakers), Which Way the Wind and Women’s International League for Peace and Freedom. 2025 marked the event’s 42nd year.
Friday Night Flicks
The Friday Night Flicks program returned in 2025 for the first time since the Covid-19 pandemic offering free movie showings in the outfield at the Arcata Ballpark. Two evening movies were offered, although one was cancelled due to rain. This program is operated in partnership with the Minor Theatre who manage the vending of snacks for patrons.
Repair Café
The City supported the Humboldt Repair Café, a community event held in conjunction with the Humboldt Flea Market that brings together residents interested in repairing a wide range of household items. Volunteer “fixers” with diverse backgrounds and technical skills donate their time to assist community members with mending, troubleshooting, and restoring items that might otherwise be discarded.
The event fosters a strong sense of community by encouraging neighbors to help one another while promoting sustainability and waste reduction. By extending the life of everyday items, the Humboldt Repair Café contributes to a culture of reuse and environmental stewardship within the community.
In 2025, the event drew strong attendance across multiple dates. Overall, there were 497 attendees across five different sessions.
9 PROMOTING HEALTH AND WELLNESS
Drop-In Activities
Drop-In Activities continued to experience strong growth in 2025, serving 5,893 total participants over 389 sessions. This marked an increase from 4,488 participants and 321 sessions in 2024, reflecting rising community demand for affordable indoor recreation opportunities.
Basketball showed the largest growth, increasing from 929 participants in 2024 to 1,503 in 2025, while futsal also increased from 903 to 1,026 participants. Volleyball remained one of the Division’s most popular offerings with 1,340 participants, and pickleball participation grew from 584 to 783 participants. Table tennis also saw notable gains, increasing from 336 to 603 participants.
Regular scheduling and consistent program offerings helped build attendance and establish returning participants throughout the year. Lower-demand activities were reduced, allowing staff time and facility space to better support the most utilized programs.
Drop-In Activities generated $12,757 in gross revenue during 2025, up from $9,741 the previous year. Consistent scheduling, strong returning attendance, and continued interest in indoor recreation opportunities contributed to another successful year.
Contract Classes
The City continued to partner with contracted instructors to provide specialty recreation opportunities, with instructors receiving 60% of class revenue and the remaining 40% supporting program administration, registration, advertising, and facility use.
While no new instructors were added in 2025, established offerings remained strong. Matt Olson continued his monthly Jujitsu classes with a dedicated returning group of participants. Enrique Esparza II expanded pickleball programming by offering six six-week courses for beginner and intermediate players, 11 single-session Tune-Up Clinics, and a week-long Youth Pickleball Academy for ages 10–16. Sandra Nakashima also continued to be a popular instructor, hosting 23 chocolate-making classes and one private party throughout the year. Participants learned a variety of confectionary techniques and created hand-crafted treats during each session.
Gymnastics
The Arcata Recreation Gymnastics program offers an affordable, high-quality program to youth ages 5 and up.
Students are coached through skill progressions developed by USA Gymnastics. The program typically offers six sessions throughout the year with five different levels from Super Springers designed specifically for 5- and 6- year-olds as well as Beginning to Advanced classes. During 2025, we served 350 gymnasts, most enrolled in multiple sessions.
Special Olympics Tournament
In partnership with Arcata High School’s Special Education team, the City again hosted the Special Olympics Bocce Tournament at Larson Park in 2025. Participation remained strong and consistent with the previous year, with athletes, teachers, volunteers, and spectators representing Arcata High School, Eureka High School, Fortuna High School, and McKinleyville High School.
The tournament featured 18 scheduled games with a combination of five four-person teams and 13 twoperson teams competing throughout the day. The annual event continues to provide an inclusive recreational opportunity that promotes teamwork, sportsmanship, and community connection.
10 Sports Tournaments
The City expanded competitive recreation opportunities in 2025 by hosting two Table Tennis Tournaments and the inaugural Pickleball Tournament.
The Table Tennis Tournaments were held in partnership with the Pacific Force Table Tennis Club and attracted 20 and 17 participants respectively. Entry fees generated $320 and $340. Both events began with round robin play, which determined seeding for double-elimination brackets. Competitors included dedicated local players of varying skill levels, along with participants traveling from as far as Crescent City.
The City also hosted its first Pickleball Tournament, featuring 26 teams of two across five divisions over two days of play. Divisions were organized by skill level and gender, with a strong emphasis on beginner participation. The tournament was conceptualized by Enrique Esparza II, who identified a need for accessible tournament-style play in Humboldt County for newer players. Affordable entry fees helped reduce barriers to participation.
Players were provided with coffee and healthy snacks throughout the event. Tournament planning and operations were also supported by four Cal Poly Humboldt students as part of their recreation coursework, assisting with scheduling, marketing, logo design, sponsorship outreach, and event logistics. Commemorative T-shirts and medals produced by local businesses helped mark the successful launch of the event.
Youth Basketball League
The Arcata Youth Basketball League hosted 335 participants in 1st through 6th grades on 30 teams for the 2025 season. While participation was slightly lower than the previous year’s 346 participants, the program continued to serve a large number of youth and remained one of the City’s most popular seasonal offerings.
The league featured six divisions organized by grade and gender.
The program employed 22 part-time staff during the season as referees and scorekeepers, an increase from 15 the previous year, along with four building supervisors to support facility operations. Volunteer support also remained strong, with 51 volunteers consisting of parents and community members coaching teams throughout the season. Many parent volunteers with two children in the league coached both teams.
Registration fees of $85 per player ($98.50 non-resident) and $325 team sponsorships, keeping consistent with 2024’s costs, generated $36,265 in revenue during 2025. The league’s 22 local sponsors were recognized through team shirts, marketing recognition, and commemorative plaques with team photos.
All teams practiced weekly at the Arcata Community Center and played games each Saturday. In addition to the Arcata Community Center, Sunny Brae Middle School was utilized for games for the 5th/6th grade divisions, providing approximately 55 hours of gym use during the season.
11 FOSTERING YOUTH DEVELOPMENT
Adventure Camp
Adventure Camp continued to be a popular summer offering for campers seeking outdoor recreation, skill-building, and handson learning. Operating for all nine weeks of summer break in 2025, the program served 176 campers.
Each themed week focuses on practical outdoor skills through activities such as shelter building, navigation and orienteering, fire safety, and wilderness survival. Camp games, scavenger hunts, and camper-led skits encouraged creativity and
playfulness, rounding out the offering.
In 2025, staff led participants through Challenge Course features with a focus on experiential education learning modalities as an end-of-week routine, helping campers build confidence, communication, and teamwork skills.
Arcata Basketball Crew
The City launched Arcata Basketball Crew in 2025 as a new affordable sports program focused on competitive basketball development. Designed for youth seeking advanced skill-building opportunities, the program emphasized fundamentals, game strategy, conditioning, and team concepts in a structured training environment. Led by dedicated coaches, participants received consistent instruction aimed at helping players grow beyond introductory recreation play and prepare for higher levels of competition. Practices focused on skill repetition, decision-making, and player confidence while maintaining a positive and supportive atmosphere.
Arcata Break Camps
The Division offers camps for youth ages 5-12 during school breaks. In 2025, we offered camps for Thanksgiving Break, two weeks of Winter Break, Presidents Week and Spring Break. Camps take place at the Teen Room in the Arcata Community Center. The camp offers full-day care with extended care starting at 8 a.m. and ending at 5:30 p.m. at no additional charge. This successful camp enables registrants to participate in arts and crafts projects, games and activities. Revenue and participation totals vary year by year as the dates of the second week of Winter Break Camp fluctuate and dictate whether camp takes place before or after the New Year.
Art Camp
Budding artists gain exposure to a wide variety of art mediums including painting, ceramics, upcycling, book making and others as well as art history and theory. Campers bring home a plethora of unique art projects at the end of each week.

12 are particularly popular in the winter months when families are looking for an affordable indoor space to celebrate.
Bucket Builders Basketball Camp
Bucket Builders Basketball Camp provided an affordable youth basketball opportunity in 2025 with a focus on competitive skill development, teamwork, and camaraderie. This camp emphasized fundamentals, shooting, ball handling, defensive concepts, and game play in a supportive learning environment.
Led by dedicated coaches, participants were challenged to improve individually while also learning the value of communication, leadership, and working together as teammates. Team-building activities and group competitions helped create a positive camp culture while reinforcing confidence and sportsmanship.
The addition of Bucket Builders Basketball Camp further expanded the City’s basketball programming and provided another pathway for youth seeking continued development through organized sports.
Explorer Science Camp - Carlson
Explorer Science Camp - Carlson extended the City’s summer science camp programming in the last four weeks of summer, offering full-day care for youth ages 5–9 at the recently completed Carlson Park.
In an effort to support working families in the Valley West community, 10 of the 20 weekly spaces were reserved for participants residing in the area. The park’s location adjacent to the Mad River also allowed campers to utilize nearby walking paths and natural areas throughout the program.
Weekly themes included Mad Scientists, Cosmic Campers, Backyard Birds and Beyond, and S.T.E.A.M. Powered, each featuring hands-on learning, outdoor exploration, and science-based activities.
Explorer & Jr. Explorer Science Camp - Marsh
Explorer Science Camp and Jr. Explorer Science Camps provided science-based summer camp opportunities at the Arcata Marsh for youth ages 5-9 and 4-6 respectively. These were half-day camps held in the mornings. The camps alternated age ranges for the first five weeks of the summer. Enrollment for the older age group remained at or near capacity throughout the summer but was limited for the younger age group.
Based at the Arcata Marsh Interpretive Center, these camps’ themes focused on the Marsh’s ecosystems, flora, and fauna through handson projects, outdoor exploration, and environmental education activities. A program highlight included a guest presentation from Chad Scott, Plant Operations Supervisor for the City’s wastewater treatment facility, who shared information about local water treatment operations and environmental stewardship.

The Recreation Division handles the film permitting process for the City of Arcata. There were no film permits issued in 2025.
Vending Permits
The Recreation Division handles the vending permitting process for the City of Arcata. We have two separate distinctions with vending: Food truck vending and sidewalk vending. Roman’s Kitchen continued to occupy the food truck vending location at the D Street Neighborhood Center generating $7,056 in vending fees. In 2025, Backwood Burritos and Outlaw Ice Pops maintained their sidewalk vending permits accounting for $20 of vending fees.
Bayside Park Farm
The Bayside Park Farm, which was the first CSA (Community Supported Agriculture) in Arcata, has provided the community with local and organic produce for over 30 years.
The Bayside Park Farm demonstrates sustainable farming practices. Over the years, this farm has supported many generations of student farmers who have moved on to become some of our area’s notable farmers.
In 2025, after many successful years of City staff managing the farm, the City partnered with Centro del Pueblo, a nonprofit dedicated to traditional knowledge and food sovereignty. Centro del Pueblo led operation and management of the farm and offered a community supported agriculture program and volunteer opportunities.
20 Collaborations and Community Partners
The success of many recreation and park activities would not be possible without assistance from longstanding community partners. During 2025, the Parks and Recreation Divisions collaborated with the following organizations:
Adopt-A-Park Program
Through the Adopt-A-Park program, community members and service groups volunteer their time and resources to perform weekly clean up, exotic species removal, tree planting, painting, building maintenance, and landscape beautification. All City parks are included in this program.
AMPT Skate Shop
AMPT Skate Shop partners with the City to staff, sponsor, and provide protective gear for youth during Skate Camp sessions at the Arcata Skate Park.
Arcata School District
Arcata Elementary School District is a strong supporter of Recreation Programs. The city renewed its MOU and heavily utilized the Sunny Brae gymnasium for the Youth Basketball League.
Arcata Chamber of Commerce
The Arcata Chamber of Commerce hosted many events this year including the annual Arcata Bay Oyster Festival, the July 4th Jubilee, Arts! Arcata, Sunday Art Markets and Trick or Treat on the Plaza. The Chamber also rents the Arcata Community Center to host their annual awards Dinner Banquet in February.
Arcata Library
The Arcata Library hosts many free community programs including monthly book clubs, books sales, knitting clubs, kids story time and collaborate with College of the Redwoods for an ESL free course to help teach English as a second language.
Cal Poly Humboldt
The Cal Poly Humboldt Sierra Club/Natural Resources Club continued their involvement performing trail renovation, tree planting, and exotic species removal. Our partnership with the Kinesiology and Recreation Administration Departments provides internships and special projects.
California Conservation Corps
The California Conservation Corps assisted with plantings and invasive species removal.
Centro del Pueblo
Centro del Pueblo is a nonprofit known for its work with Indigenous, Immigrant and Latine communities. They are dedicated to traditional knowledge and food sovereignty, and they manage the Sanctuary Garden in Arcata. The City has partnered with Centro del Pueblo and they are now overseeing management and operation of Bayside Park Farm, including a community-supported-agriculture program and offering volunteer opportunities.
21 Changing Tides
Changing Tides Family Services provides training opportunities for childcare providers and those working with families with young children. Changing Tides supplements childcare fees for incoming qualifying families and refers families to city programs, primarily summer camps and break camps. In 2025, there was an increase in the number of families using Changing Tides to pay for summer camps and break camps.
Community Volunteer Supported Activities
To supplement the Arcata Community Center Building Supervisor staff there are numerous approved volunteers that assist with drop-in program activities like pickleball, table tennis, ukulele club and Hula dancing. The youth basketball program would not be a success without the many volunteer parents and community members that step up to help coach the teams throughout our winter program. There are about 6 full time volunteers and about 45 seasonal volunteers for the YBB program.
Community United of North Arcata (CUNA)
CUNA believes that by focusing on community engagement and strategic collaboration, we can collectively work towards building a better represented Valley West. They have officially adopted Carlson Park and regularly host clean up days and other events onsite.
Cumbre Humboldt
Cumbre Humboldt financially supported Play dates in the park at the new Carlson Park playground as well as providing funding to send campers who reside in the Valley West community to attend our full day science camp.
First Five Humboldt
First Five Humboldt provides funding, educational and training resources, parent workshops and program staff support for the Arcata Play Center and First Year Playgroup.
Friends of the Arcata Marsh (FOAM)
FOAM works closely with the City to support educational opportunities at the Arcata Marsh and Wildlife Sanctuary including staffing the Marsh Interpretive Center and leading Marsh tours for community and school groups.
Full Cycle
Full Cycle is a worker-owner bicycling powered community compost collection and processing company. Fully Cycle and the City have partnered to provide use of the Earth Tub Digester at Bayside Park Farm and compost collection
services and processing to selected city programs.
Humboldt County Office of Education
A group from the Humboldt County Office of Education assists with the maintenance of the City Hall parking lot, planters, and roundabouts.
22 Humboldt Crabs
The Humboldt Crabs continued their partnership and held a complete season. The Humboldt Crabs estimate that they have over 30,000 attendees annually.
Humboldt Sponsors
Humboldt Sponsors generously supported the Recreation Division with a $2,000 grant to supplement our Youth Development Scholarship fund for summer camp scholarships.
Jacoby Creek School
Jacoby Creek School provides gymnasium space for recreation basketball between January and March. They are very helpful and flexible in the scheduling of the facility as we each work towards maximizing gym use during peak seasons. The cross country/track teams at Jacoby Creek School use fields at the Arcata Sports Complex for practices throughout the year and for the County Cross Country Championship in October.
Native Plant Society
Californian Native Plant Society volunteers continue to maintain the landscaping along the 7th Street walkway leading to the Arcata Community Center.
North Coast Community Garden Collaborative
The collaborative operates as a support network of and for community gardeners on California’s north coast.
The North Coast Community Garden Collaborative (NCCGC) works to bring community partners, gardens and gardeners together to improve access to affordable, healthy, fresh and culturally appropriate foods. NCCGC develops and delivers a monthly newsletter and provides community gardeners with opportunities for garden gatherings, educational events and sharing of resources.
Pacific Union School District
The Recreation Division is fortunate to receive time in the Pacific Union school gym for our basketball program.
The Pacific Union Field is also utilized for Physical Education classes and PUSD hosts a cross-country race at the Arcata Marsh annually.
PacOut Green Team
The PacOut Green Team is a group of avid outdoors people in Humboldt County, CA that are passionate about keeping our outdoor spaces free of litter and debris. They have hosted numerous clean up events in City Parks and open spaces including Carlson Park, and the Arcata Marsh and Wildlife Sanctuary.
Redwood Coast Mountain Bike Association
The City and Redwood Coast Mountain Bike Association (RCMBA) have an MOU and partner in mutually supporting bike trail development and maintenance. RCMBA played an integral role in the design of the Redwood Park Pump Track.
Senior Resource Center
Humboldt Senior Resource Center served meals to the senior community out of the Senior Room located in the Arcata Community Center. Meals were served 4 times a week and serve as many as 40 individuals each day. Along with dining services, there are also senior activities and assistance programs the organization provides to participants.
23 Volunteer Trail Stewards
The Humboldt Trails Council serves as a unified voice to support development, maintenance, connection to, and use of trails for recreation and transportation throughout Humboldt County, California. Working with Site Coordinators, VTS hosts regular trail workdays in the Arcata Community Forest, Humboldt Bay Trail, and Marsh.

STAFF REPORT – CITY COUNCIL MEETING
TO: Honorable Mayor and City Council Members
FROM: Netra Khatri, City Engineer
PREPARER: Mara Grow, Administrative Specialist
DATE: August 19, 2026
TITLE: Make a Continued Finding that Emergency Procurement to Repair Failed Culverts at 4700 West End Road is Necessary; and Authorize the City Manager to Execute All Applicable Documents.
RECOMMENDATION:
It is recommended that the Council:
1) Continue to find that emergency procurement to repair failed culverts at 4700 West End Road is necessary; and
2) Authorize the City Manager to execute all applicable documents.
BACKGROUND:
City staff recently identified the failure of existing 30-inch and 18-inch culverts located at 4700 West End Road, which is City-owned property that serves as the City’s ancillary corporation yard.
The failure has resulted int the formation of two sinkholes, posing a potential risk to public safety, nearby infrastructure, and aquatic resources within North Fork Janes Creek.
Due to the nature of the failure, immediate action is necessary to prevent further deterioration and to ensure safe conditions at the site.
DISCUSSION:
City staff conducted a site evaluation and confirmed that both culverts have structurally failed and are no longer functioning as intended. The resulting sinkhole indicates subsurface instability that may worsen if not addressed promptly.
These culverts convey a segment of North Fork Janes Creek under the City property and were likely installed many decades ago as part of prior lumber and plywood mill development.
City staff met with the applicable permitting agencies on April 22, 2026, to discuss the proposed emergency repairs. The agencies expressed support for expediting the work under emergency permits given the urgency and potential risks associated with delay.
Due to the emergency nature of the project, a streamlined procurement process is being utilized in accordance with City policies. This staff report serves as the recorded explanation required pursuant to the City’s emergency procurement policy. Staff requests the Council receive this report and make a determination that the proposed emergency repairs are necessary.
Project Update:
To date, crews have completed installation of the 48-inch culvert. The excavated material was stockpiled and tested for potential contaminants. In late June, analytical results confirmed that the material was classified as non-hazardous soil suitable for restricted reuse. Testing verified that the soil was below both the Resource Conservation and Recovery Act (RCRA) hazardous waste and California hazardous waste (Cal-Haz) regulatory thresholds. In addition, contaminant concentrations were below human health screening criteria protective of commercial and industrial land uses or within established California background soil levels.
Based on these results, the soil was approved for restricted reuse and released to the contractor for use on other commercial or industrial projects. The material has since been removed from the site.
Granite Construction poured the bridge footings for the planned bridge along the Annie & Mary Trail on August 3. Excavation for the remaining phases of work is anticipated to begin the week of August 17, allowing approximately two weeks for the footings to cure. Coordination with the City’s consultants and permitting agencies will continue to ensure that any required fish relocation is completed prior to the final phase of work, which includes plugging and grouting the existing culverts.
ENVIRONMENTAL REVIEW (CEQA):
The proposed action qualifies for an exemption under the California Environmental Quality Act (CEQA) under 14 CCR § 15269(c) Emergency Repair: Specific actions to prevent or mitigate an emergency, including those necessary to prevent imminent loss of life or property.
BUDGET/FISCAL IMPACT:
There are currently no funds allocated in the adopted Fiscal Year 2025-26 budget for this repair.
Staff are requesting authorization to utilize reserve funds to cover the cost of the emergency repair.
The final cost will be determined upon receipt of bids; however, staff will make efforts to ensure cost-effective delivery of the project.
Use of reserve funds is justified due to the unforeseen nature of the infrastructure failure and the need for immediate corrective action.
RECOMMENDED COUNCIL ACTION:
Motion to:
1. Make a continued finding that emergency procurement to repair failed culverts at 4700 West End Road is necessary; and
2. Authorize the City Manager to execute all applicable documents. Consent Calendar vote.

STAFF REPORT – CITY COUNCIL MEETING
TO: Honorable Mayor and City Council Members

DATE: August 19, 2026
TITLE: Adopt Ordinance No. 1593, An Ordinance of the City Council of the City of Arcata Amending Chapter 5, Title V of the Arcata Municipal Code to Update the Definition of a “Nuisance,” Change the Nuisance Abatement Hearing Officer to the City Manager, and Allow for the Recovery of Attorneys’ Fees for Nuisance Abatement.
RECOMMENDATION:
It is recommended that the Council adopt Ordinance No. 1593, An Ordinance of the City Council of the City of Arcata Amending Chapter 5, Title V of the Arcata Municipal Code to Update the Definition of a “Nuisance,” Change the Nuisance Abatement Hearing Officer to the City Manager, and Allow for the Recovery of Attorney’s Fees for Nuisance Abatement.
INTRODUCTION:
The proposed Ordinance amends the Abatement of Nuisances chapter of the Arcata Municipal Code (“A.M.C.”) to update the definition of a “nuisance,” change the nuisance abatement hearing officer to the City Manager, and allow for the recovery of attorney’s fees for nuisance abatement. Ordinance No. 1593 was introduced by the Council on August 5, 2026. If adopted on August 19, it will become effective on September 18, 2026.
BACKGROUND:
Chapter 5 (Abatement of Nuisances) of Title V (Sanitation & Health) of the A.M.C. defines nuisances and establishes nuisance abatement procedures for the City of Arcata (“City”). Under the A.M.C. as currently written, nuisance abatement hearings are conducted before the City Council and involve testimony about the conditions constituting the nuisance, the estimated cost of abatement, and other relevant matters. The A.M.C. also authorizes the City to recover certain costs associated with nuisance abatement. However, the recovery of attorneys’ fees is not currently authorized.
Government Code section 38773.5 authorizes a city to recover attorneys' fees in nuisance abatement actions and administrative proceedings when specified procedural requirements are satisfied, but recovery of attorneys' fees in nuisance abatement actions is not automatic. A city may, by ordinance, provide for the recovery of reasonable attorneys' fees in any action, administrative proceeding, or special proceeding to abate a nuisance. Because the A.M.C. does not currently provide for the
recovery of attorneys' fees in nuisance abatement actions, the City cannot recover attorneys' fees incurred in such proceedings.
DISCUSSION:
Concerns have been brought to the City’s attention that are not explicitly covered by the current “nuisance” definition, including concerns about vacant buildings, blighted conditions, and loud or excessive noise. The proposed Ordinance augments the existing definition of a “nuisance” to include vacant buildings that are not reasonably secured, constitute a fire hazard, constitute a blighted condition detrimental to neighborhood property values, or are otherwise detrimental to public health, safety, and welfare. The proposed Ordinance also adds conditions that constitute prohibited visual blight and clarifies what constitutes an “attractive nuisance” posing a risk to infants or children.
Further, the proposed Ordinance prohibits certain loud or excessive noise, explosions, and destruction of property that disturb a neighborhood’s peace or quiet.
The proposed Ordinance designates the City Manager, or the City Manager's designee, as the hearing officer for nuisance abatement proceedings and allows the hearing officer’s decision to be appealed to the City Council. This change is intended to reduce the administrative burden on the City Council while allowing the City Council to hear appeals of hearing officer decisions.
Government Code section 38773.5 requires that any ordinance authorizing recovery of attorneys' fees contain specific provisions. The ordinance must provide: (1) for recovery of attorneys' fees by the prevailing party, rather than limiting recovery of attorneys' fees to the City if it prevails; (2) that the City must elect to recover fees and costs at the initiation of the action or proceeding in order to be entitled to seek recovery of attorneys' fees; and (3) that, in no action or proceeding, shall the award of attorneys' fees to a prevailing party exceed the amount of reasonable attorneys' fees incurred by the City in the action or proceeding.
The proposed ordinance incorporates the requirements of Government Code section 38773.5 and authorizes the recovery of attorneys' fees in nuisance abatement actions, administrative proceedings, and special proceedings.
POLICY IMPLICATIONS:
The proposed amendments further the City's interest in preserving and protecting the public health, safety, and welfare through nuisance abatement and promote efficient and cost-effective procedures for the abatement of public nuisances.
ENVIRONMENTAL REVIEW (CEQA):
The Ordinance does not constitute a project under the California Environmental Quality Act (Pub.
Resources Code §§ 21065, 21080).
BUDGET/FISCAL IMPACT:
No fiscal impacts are anticipated for this action.
RECOMMENDED COUNCIL ACTION:
Motion to adopt Ordinance No. 1593, An Ordinance of the City Council of the City of Arcata Amending Chapter 5, Title V of the Arcata Municipal Code to Update the Definition of a “Nuisance,” Change the Nuisance Abatement Hearing Officer to the City Manager, and Allow for the Recovery of Attorney’s Fees for Nuisance Abatement.

STAFF REPORT – CITY COUNCIL MEETING
TO: Honorable Mayor and City Council Members
FROM: Emily Sinkhorn, Director of Environmental Services PREPARER: Morguine Sefcik, Environmental Programs Manager DATE: August 19, 2026
TITLE: Adopt Resolution No. 267-11 Approving the Award of State Coastal Conservancy Grant Funds for the Jolly Giant Creek and Butcher Slough Coastal Resilience and Restoration Planning Project; Authorize the City Manager to Execute All Applicable Documents.
RECOMMENDATION:
It is recommended that the Council:
1. Adopt Resolution No. 267-11 approving the award of the State Coastal Conservancy (SCC) grant funds for the Jolly Giant Creek and Butcher Slough Coastal Resilience and Restoration Planning Project (Project); and
2. Authorize the City Manager to execute all applicable documents.
INTRODUCTION:
The Environmental Services Department submitted a grant application to the SCC in April of 2026 requesting $597,000 for the Project. At its June 18, 2026, Board Meeting, the SCC authorized a grant award to the City for the Project.
BACKGROUND:
The Arcata Wetlands and Creeks Committee has had a goal for several years to pursue funding for restoration of lower Jolly Giant Creek which traverses through downtown Arcata to Humboldt Bay at Butcher Slough. Environmental Services Department staff researched various grant funding opportunities to pursue restoration planning for Jolly Giant Creek and the SCC Climate Bond (Proposition 4) funding program was identified as a good fit. SCC allocates the Climate Bond funding through a rolling grant application process to support a variety of climate related priorities, including multi-benefit coastal resiliency projects. On its April 1, 2026, meeting, the City Council approved the submission of a grant application to the SCC requesting grant funds for a multi-benefit coastal resilience and habitat restoration planning project for the lower two miles of Jolly Giant Creek and Butcher Slough.
DISCUSSION:
The Environmental Services Department will use the grant funding to identify and prioritize habitat restoration and sea level rise adaptation opportunities in the two-mile study area in Jolly Giant Creek and Butcher Slough. The project area extends from Shay Park to the outlet of the creek in Humboldt Bay at the Arcata Marsh and Wildlife Sanctuary (AMWS), including the Little Lakes property. The
Project will develop a feasibility study report for the entire project area and 30% design plans for a multi-benefit project that provides sea level rise and flood resilience, along with salmonid habitat restoration, on the eastern portion of the Little Lakes property along the lower Butcher Slough reach.
This work will build off the recently completed Arcata Sea Level Rise Vulnerability Assessment and Capital Improvement Project Adaptation Concept Plan project, funded by the California Coastal Commission. In addition, the Project will fit within the Council’s direction at their Study Session on February 26, 2026, to prioritize adaptation and restoration on the eastern edge of the Little Lakes property while continuing to pursue economic development opportunities on the western portion of the property.
The department anticipates commencing grant-funded work this fall with community and stakeholder engagement starting in early 2027.
POLICY IMPLICATIONS:
This action is consistent with the City’s adopted Local Coastal Program (LCP). This project will support developing sea level rise adaptation within the LCP’s Sea Level Rise Adaption Zone 1 where the City plans to continue to protect current development and potential redevelopment endangered from flooding.
COMMITTEE/COMMISSION REVIEW:
The Wetlands and Creeks Committee has expressed support for this grant-funded project.
ENVIRONMENTAL REVIEW (CEQA):
While the Project is for a planning-level study only and exempt from CEQA, the City plans to pursue CEQA documentation for the Butcher Slough/Little Lakes portion of the project area as part of the scope of work.
BUDGET/FISCAL IMPACT:
The grant has been approved for $597,000. These funds (both revenue and expenses) will be added to the 2026/2027 budget once a grant agreement is executed.
RECOMMENDED COUNCIL ACTION:
Motion to:
1. Adopt Resolution No. 267-11 approving the award of State Coastal Conservancy grant funds for the Jolly Giant Creek and Butcher Slough Coastal Resilience and Restoration Planning Project; and
2. Authorize the City Manager to execute all applicable documents. Consent Calendar vote.

Re: Request for City Support — 40th I Block Party
Dear Mr. Perry,
On behalf of Centro del Pueblo Movimiento Indígena Migrante, I am writing to respectfully request financial support from the City of Arcata for the 40th anniversary of the I Block Party. which this year will be celebrated in connection with the Second Annual Sanctuary Day, Sanctuary Day is a day for and with Humboldt County’s immigrant communities, a celebration of welcome, belonging, culture, migration, dignity, and joy. Our vision is to create a public space where immigrant Latine and diverse families can see their cultures not only welcomed, but recognized as an important part of the community we all share.
For 40 years, the I Block Party has brought neighbors together. Through Sanctuary Day, we hope to build upon that history by creating opportunities for people who may live in the same city, walk the same streets, shop at the same businesses, and send their children to the same schools, but who may not often have the opportunity to truly connect, to spend a day together through food, music, dance, art, stories, cultural exchange, and community mutual care.
The event will bring together traditional musicians, Mariachi, Folclórico dancers, local artists, community organizations, small businesses, families, and community members. UC Davis will also participate by providing general educational information about immigration processes and workers’ rights. This growing support demonstrates how much our community believes in this celebration. At the same time, producing a large-scale public event comes with significant costs.
In addition to supporting artists and cultural programming, we must meet the City’s requirements for safely and responsibly hosting an event of this size, including the production, logistical, operational, and technical needs associated with bringing a large community gathering into public space.
For this reason, we are respectfully asking the City of Arcata to consider providing financial support to help us meet these requirements and offset the costs of producing Sanctuary
Day.
We understand that the City must balance many priorities and resources, and we are grateful for any level of financial support the City may be able to provide. Every contribution would make a meaningful difference in our ability to produce a safe, welcoming, professionally supported, and accessible celebration for the Arcata community.
We see Sanctuary Day as more than a single event. It is an opportunity to demonstrate what belonging can look like in practice: children dancing in the street, families sharing food, artists receiving recognition for carrying cultural traditions, neighbors learning from one another, and immigrant families experiencing public space with dignity, pride, safety, and joy.
Migration is part of the human experience, and immigrant communities are part of Arcata’s story.
As the I Block Party celebrates 40 years, we have a special opportunity to honor that history while imagining its future, one in which all of our neighbors can see themselves reflected in the celebrations and public spaces that define our community.
Any financial contribution from the City would be deeply appreciated and would directly help us make this vision possible.
Thank you, Dear Merritt, for considering our request and for the City’s continued work on behalf of the Arcata community. We would be honored to have the City’s support as we celebrate 40 years of community gathering and the Second Annual Sanctuary Day, a day of welcome, cultural pride, connection, and belonging.
With gratitude,
Brenda Perez

STAFF REPORT – CITY COUNCIL MEETING
TO: Honorable Mayor and City Council Members
FROM: Jennifer Dart, Community Development Director
PREPARER: Delores Freitas, Senior Planner
DATE: August 19, 2026
TITLE: Public Hearing to Adopt Project Action; and Introduce Ordinance Nos. 1591 and 1590, for the Whaley House Proposed Rehabilitation and Lot Split at 1395 H Street, Arcata.
RECOMMENDATION:
It is recommended that the Council:
1) Open the public hearing; and
2) Receive a staff report; and
3) Receive public comment; and
4) Close the public hearing; and
a. Adopt the Project Action, approving the proposed subdivision and Tentative Map; b. Introduce Ordinance No. 1591, An Ordinance of the City Council of the City of Arcata Amending the Zoning Map to Add a Planned Development Combining Zone to Assessor Parcel Number 021-093-004; and
c. Introduce Ordinance No. 1590, An Ordinance of the City Council of the City of Arcata Modifying the Whaley House Landmark Historic Property Combining Zone (LHP-80-31) on Assessor Parcel Number 021-093-004; waive reading of the text and consent to read by title only for both ordinances.
INTRODUCTION:
The project entails subdivision of a lot containing an historic property known as “The Whaley House” (both locally landmarked and on the National Register). The landmarked building is a Settlement-era structure built in 1855 that was moved to its current location in 1903. The house was sold to Bill and Sally Thonson in 1979. Their children are the current owners and project applicants.
The house includes three units and needs various structural and aesthetic repairs. The applicants are proposing to subdivide the property for future development and use the proceeds from the sale to rehabilitate the historic structure. A Planned Development process is required as the project site requires a deviation from lot standards.
The project at hand is an excellent example of a proposal that does not meet strict land use code standards but still results in beneficial development that has a strong relationship to stated City, goals, and policies in the general plan, specifically historic resource preservation and development of high-quality infill housing development within the City’s urban core.
The project went to the Planning Commission for approval on May 12, 2026. Staff recommend that the Council review the presentation and discussion at that meeting.
BACKGROUND:
The Planned Development permit allows discretion over site planning and standards that do not apply strict adherence to Land Use Code (Code) standards. The intent is to authorize higher quality and more efficient uses of land that meet the purpose, intent, goals, policies of the General Plan even if the project does not meet every standard of the Code. This project is subject to Planned Development standards not because it is a large or physically unique site, but because Section
9.88.030F.5. (b) of the subdivision chapter of the Land Use Code requires deviation from minimum parcel area standards to be evaluated specifically through a Planned Development permit review process, which provides a structure to authorize code deviations in exchange for significant public benefit. This project is a “Type B” plan development type, which applies to developments that consist of uses permitted outright in the zone district, but involving exceptions to development standards of the zone district.
The request of the Council is to support staff’s recommendation to:
1) Approve the proposed subdivision and Tentative Map; and 2) Approve the addition of a :PD Combining Zone to both resultant lots; and 3) Amend the existing :HL landmark overlay to only apply to the resultant lot that includes the Whaley House and remove reference to the side yard in the “Features to be Preserved” section of the Ordinance.
DISCUSSION:
The property known as the “Whaley House” was listed on the National Register of Historic Places in 1979 and locally in 1980. A noted intent of listing the structure on the National Register was to “aid in its restoration and preservation”. The current request is tied to a similar intent: the owners propose to subdivide the existing 11,577 square foot lot into two lots (Parcel One: 6,039 square feet; Parcel Two: 5,463 square feet), sell the resultant vacant parcel, and use the proceeds as a new revenue stream to undertake necessary structural repairs to the Whaley House as outlined in Attachment A, Exhibit 4.
The property is within the Residential-Low Density (R-L) zone and the site is also subject to the restrictions of the parcel-specific Historic Landmark (:HL) Combining Zone. As the resultant Parcel Two is slightly under the 6,000 square foot minimum parcel size for the zone, the only permitting pathway available involves the creation of a Planned Development (:PD) overlay zone as authorized by the City Council. The approval of the substandard lot size also results in modifications to two other site standards which require flexibility in this case: minimum lot width and allowed site coverage/floor area ratio (FAR). Minimum lot width in the R-L zone is typically 60 feet, but width be reduced to 30 feet where the review authority determines that a lesser proposed width is sufficient to ensure safe and adequate access and parking. In this case, the resultant lots will be 52.5 feet and
47.5 feet, respectively. Findings have been drafted in the draft Action to support this reduction.
Allowed site coverage/FAR are typically limited to 50%/0.5 in the R-L zone, but a 10% increase is proposed to each resultant lot to accommodate the substandard lot size.
Subdividing the lot will also impact the existing local landmark ordinance :HL zone overlay in two ways: the overlay boundary will need to be reduced to only encompass the resultant parcel housing the Whaley House; and the “Features to be Preserved” listed in the Ordinance will need to be modified to remove reference to the “ample side yard”, which is currently identified as being “important to the building’s setting”. To staff’s knowledge, creating a site restriction of this type in a
local Landmark Ordinance is unique; typically, Ordinances limit restrictions to the structure itself, and not environmental features associated with the surrounding context.
The proposed project was presented to the City’s Historic Landmarks Committee at their February 19th regular meeting. The Historic Landmarks Committee agreed that listing the side yard as a feature to be preserved and thereby limiting future development onsite is an overreach, and not in line with current city policy direction as set by the City Council, which necessitates balancing historic preservation with housing development and adaptive reuse. Staff asked the Committee to:
1) Provide a recommendation the Planning Commission and City Council as to whether or not to amend the existing :HL landmark overlay to remove or clarify intent of reference to side yard; 2) Review the Historic Resource Report prepared for the project and provide feedback as necessary; and
3) Provide guidance on proposed rehabilitation workplan. The committee voiced strong support for the project and recommended approval of the project to the Planning Commission.
The committee also expressed support for the project as a creative way to support the ongoing maintenance of the Whaley House. The committee also supported the proposed rehabilitation work as appropriate for the structure and in keeping with the Secretary of the Interior’s Standards for Rehabilitation.
Because the project is relatively minor in scale, the proposed Code amendment is also relatively minor. The project proponents are requesting a deviation of 537 square feet from minimum parcel size and base site coverage and floor area ratio requirements to facilitate uses that are permitted outright in the base zone district. While the design of future development on the resultant parcel is not available at this time, the residential use proposed is consistent with zoning. Future development will require a design review approval based on current regulations. The intent of including the future development as part of this existing :PD review is to avoid bringing the development of a singlefamily residential structure and Accessory Dwelling Unit (ADU) back to the City Council as a :PD amendment.
Per Land Use Code Section 9.72.070(H), Planned Developments proposing exceptions to land use code. Standards are required to provide development, amenities, roughly proportional to the exceptions requested as determined by the review authority. Amenities may include special attention given to open space, landscaping, or special amenities, and include restoration of environmentally sensitive, habitat areas, where feasible. Staff suggest that the proposed restoration of the historic property on site as described in Attachment A constitutes an amenity meeting the requirements of this section.
Staff supports the applicant’s request to approve the proposed subdivision and Tentative Map; approve the addition of a :PD Combining Zone to both resultant lots; and amend the existing :HL landmark overlay to only apply to the resultant lot that includes the Whaley House, and remove or reference to the side yard in the “Features to be Preserved” section of the Ordinance based on the policy guidance described in the attached project Action and as summarized below:
1) General Plan Historic Preservation Element Policies HP-6a and HP-6b (General Incentives for Historic Structures and Sites; Specific Incentives for structures and sites within the :HL District) support development of the resultant lot as an incentive for rehabilitation of the Whaley House, which will be conditioned as part of the approval of the project (Attachment A, Conditions of Approval).
2) General Plan Housing Element Policies HE-2, HE-5, HE-6, HE-7, HE-9, HE-10 (Encourage the maintenance of existing housing; Identify adequate sites to facilitate and encourage the
development of a variety of types of housing for all income levels; Provide opportunities for infill development of vacant and redevelop able properties in a way that allows for gradual, rather than drastic, changes from surrounding development; Encourage a wide range of public and private investment to help meet the City’s Housing Goals; Eliminate unnecessary discretionary review procedures and delays in the housing development process due to complex processing procedures for housing projects; Where appropriate, remove governmental constraints to the maintenance, improvement, and development of housing; Focus housing development in the downtown area) support both the rehabilitation of three existing multifamily housing units and the creation of a new single-family structure on the resultant lot.
POLICY IMPLICATIONS:
The proposed approval would represent the second instance within the past year in which modifications to an adopted Historic Landmark Combining Zone have been considered to revise or clarify the specific historic features required to be preserved. While the request is specific to the subject property and has been evaluated on its individual merits, approval could establish a precedent for future requests to amend preservation requirements associated with designated historic landmark properties.
In addition, approval of the proposed subdivision may create a potential pathway for other historic landmark properties seeking minor subdivisions that may not otherwise qualify for a Senate Bill 9 (SB 9) Urban Lot Split. Although the project has been reviewed for consistency with applicable zoning, subdivision, and historic preservation standards, future applicants may reference this action in support of similar requests involving modifications to historic landmark preservation provisions in order to facilitate additional development potential on historically designated sites.
The City Council may wish to consider whether additional policy direction or amendments to the City’s historic preservation regulations are warranted to clarify the circumstances under which modifications to designated preservation features or lot splits may be appropriate.
COMMITTEE/COMMISSION REVIEW:
The proposed project was presented to the City’s Historic Landmarks Committee at their February 19th regular meeting, and the committee voiced strong support for the project and recommended approval of the project to the Planning Commission and City Council. The Committee expressed support for the project as a creative way to support the ongoing maintenance of the Whaley House and agreed with staff that the inclusion of the side yard as a feature to be preserved was inappropriate for the site. Preserving the side yard was an unnecessary barrier to future development.
The committee also supported the proposed rehabilitation work as appropriate for the structure and in keeping with the Secretary of the Interior’s Standards for Rehabilitation.
The proposed project was presented to the Planning Commission at their May 12th regular meeting.
The Commission also voiced support for the project based on its clear connection to city housing and infill policies, and adopted Resolution Number PC-26-03, recommending project approval to the City Council.
ENVIRONMENTAL REVIEW (CEQA):
The project qualifies for California Environmental Quality Act exemptions pursuant to Section 15331 (Class 31 – Historical Resource Restoration/Rehabilitation) and Section 15061(b)(3) (Common Sense Exemption). Class 31 consists of projects limited to repair and rehabilitation of historical resources in a manner consistent with the Secretary of the Interior’s Standards for the Treatment of Historic Properties with Guidelines for Rehabilitation of Historic Buildings. The applicant has provided a proposed scope of work that includes significant repairs to a significant
historic structure; these repairs are supported by the project’s qualified historian and are supported by the Historic Landmarks Committee.
Typically, minor subdivisions of land would qualify for a Class 15 exemption (minor land divisions); however, as exceptions to site standards are required per the definition of this exemption, it would not apply in this case. However, an evaluation of the whole of the project allows staff to make s common sense finding as the requested exceptions to standards are minor in nature, align with General Plan policy, support infill development and preservation of a significant historic resource, and do not involve any of the unusual circumstances leading to potentially significant effects that may otherwise prohibit the lead agency from making a finding of no significant effect as outlined in section 15300.2 of the CEQA Guidelines (exceptions to Categorical Exemptions).
