MEMORANDUM
TO: City Council
FROM: Nicole Valentine, Director of Administrative Services SUBJECT: Fiscal Year 2024-25 First Quarter Status Report and Budget Adjustment Request Approval
DATE: November 26, 2024
RECOMMENDATION:
Receive and file the Fiscal Year 2024-25 First Quarter Financial Status Report and approve Budget Adjustment Requests.
IMPACT ON FINANCIAL AND PERSONNEL RESOURCES:
Preparation of the Fiscal Year (FY) 2024-25 First Quarter Financial Status Report (the “Q1 Report”) requires staff time within the existing work plan and budget for the Administrative Services Department. At the end of the first quarter, FY 2024-25 revenues for the Consolidated General Fund were $2.7 million, or one percent (1%), lower than the Budget Target (“Target”). Actual Expenditures were $7.7 million and below the Target by approximately $1.5 million, or five percent (5%).
The City Council is being asked to approve 12 budget adjustments. The overall impact to the budget is reflected in the following Table 1:
Item 9.b.
City Council
Fiscal Year 2024-25 First Quarter Status Report and Budget Adjustment Request Approval
November 26, 2024
Table 1: First Quarter Budget Adjustment Request
BACKGROUND:
Each fiscal year the City Council adopts a budget, which commits government resources and services to accomplish the City’s mission of making Arroyo Grande the best place possible for everyone who lives, works, and visits here. The Q1 Report is the first of four financial performance reports that staff will present to Council during the 2024-25 fiscal year. The purpose of the FY 2024-25 Q1 Report is to:
Compare first quarter revenues received and expenditures incurred to the first quarter of the prior year and to the budgeted Target to determine the City’s financial performance;
Provide explanations for key account variances and identify any potential trends that might impact financial planning; and
Provide other key first quarter information including headcount statistics, status of Capital Improvement Projects, and requests for City Council’s approval of Budget Adjustment Requests that have not previously been approved.
The City’s actual first quarter financial results will be compared to both the prior year’s first quarter and the budgeted Target. The Target for expenditures is calculated as one fourth (25%) of the FY 2024-25 Budget and represents the 3-month period from July 2024 Request Revenue Expenditure

through September 2024, except for the Non-Departmental Annual Payments line that has a Target of the full budget. This approach increases the expenditure Target from 25% to 30% for the first quarter. The Target for revenues does not use the 25% Target but a Target of 12.4% that more accurately reflects the anticipated revenues to be received in the first quarter of the fiscal year. Using the Target as a comparator against actual results provides a simplified method to evaluate performance for the quarter.
The Q1 Report also includes a section regarding Budget Adjustments Requests. This section summarizes individual budget adjustments approved by the City Council during the first quarter, as well as administrative adjustments completed by City staff.
Additionally, this section of the report includes new Budget Adjustment Requests not otherwise addressed in past City Council agenda items. Approval will enable the City to complete important work items and meet the needs of the community.
ANALYSIS OF ISSUES:
Year-End Revenue and Expenditures Compared to Prior Year Table 2: Current Year Q1 Actuals Compared to Prior Year Q1 Actuals The Consolidated General Fund shown in Table 2 is the primary operating fund of the City and accounts for resources and services traditionally associated with government.
The Consolidated General Fund provides administrative, financial, police protection, community development, public works, fire, and recreation services to the community and other funds. The Consolidated General Fund accounts for revenues that have unrestricted uses and are not required legally or by contractual agreement to be accounted for in another fund. The City has historically reported on the Consolidated General Fund separately from the Local Sales Tax Fund, although the City’s auditors traditionally combine this information in the Annual Comprehensive Financial Report.
The Measure O 2006 Sales Tax Fund accounts for the revenues derived from Measure O 2006, a local 1/2% sales tax approved by the City's voters in November 2006. Measure O 2006 included advisory measures when passed, providing direction on the uses to which the funding should be allocated. To ensure accountability, the measure included a provision requiring the City to publish and distribute an annual report to each household on the revenues and expenditures from the sales tax proceeds. To aid in the collection and reporting of this information, the City has accounted for this fund in a separate account.

Fiscal Year 2024-25 First Quarter Status Report and Budget Adjustment Request Approval
November 26, 2024
This report presents information for the Consolidated General Fund that includes Measure O 2006 Tax Fund revenues and expenditures. Consolidated General Fund revenues at the first quarter of this year were approximately $168,115 higher than the first quarter of the prior year. Expenditures were approximately $649,565 higher at the end of the first quarter of the current fiscal year versus the first quarter of the prior year. A more thorough explanation of first quarter variances is set forth in the attached financial report (Attachment 1). The following is a summary of the first quarter variances between the two fiscal years.
Q1 Revenue and Expenditures Compared to Target
Table 3: Current Year Q1 Actuals Compared to Target
Table 3 above compares first quarter actual results to the budgeted Target. Q1 actual revenue was short of the Target by $325,720. Q1 actual expenditures were short of the Target by approximately $1.5 million. The following is a summary of the Q1 revenue and expenditure variances compared to the budgeted Target. A more thorough explanation of first quarter variances is set forth in the attached financial report.
Revenue ($325,720 lower)
General Fund revenue for FY 2023-24 is more than the Adjusted Budget by $325,720.
The majority of the variance is related to increased Property Tax, Measure O-2006 Sales Tax, User Fees, and Franchise Fees revenues that exceeded the Adjusted Budget. The Q1 Report includes greater detail regarding the causes for the revenue variances.
Expenditures (approximately $1.5 million lower)
Actual expenditures were $1,551,412 under the Target. Some of the more significant savings occurred in the Police, Administrative Services, Community Development, and Public Works Departments. The Q1 Report includes greater detail regarding the causes for the expenditure variances in these departments.
Budget Adjustments
One of the purposes of the First Quarter Financial Status report is to recommend the reappropriation (carryovers) of prior year budgets for services/products that were begun, but not completed, as of June 30, 2024. These requested carryovers do not include capital improvement projects. Each year, the City Council adopts a budget which commits resources to the Capital Improvement Program (CIP) that addresses infrastructure maintenance and improvements throughout the City. The CIP is funded through a variety of sources, including significant grants and transfers from other funds. CIP funds do not FY 2024-25

have annual appropriated budgets. Control over capital projects is maintained by a project-length CIP budget. This project-length budget authorizes total expenditures over the duration of a construction project, rather than year by year. A detailed accounting by Project is included in Attachment 1 for information purposes.
Staff identified nine projects that were budgeted in FY 2023-24 and were not completed in that fiscal year but are expected to be completed in the current fiscal year. It is requested that the following carryover budget adjustments be approved:
Affordable Housing Trust Fund: Appropriate $448,370.37 from the Affordable Housing Trust Fund Balance to support the development of Housing Authority of San Luis Obispo (HASLO)’s affordable housing project consisting of 63 affordable multi-family units located at 700 Oak Park Blvd. Approved on 07/25/2023 City Council meeting, Item 9.m.
City Council: Reallocate $21,500 from the retraining scholarship program funded using SB 1090 funds. This program was approved at the March 9, 2021, City Council meeting, item 10.a., The original approval was for $40,000. In FY 2021- 22, $15,000 was spent and in FY 2022-23, $3,500 was spent. This program has now ended. The reallocation of $21,500 would support a future “buy local” program for business impacted by the Traffic Way Bridge CIP project that will be brought to the City Council in early 2025.
City Manager’s Office: Carryover $37,500 related to Economic Development Consultant. This work effort was delayed during the recruitment and hiring process of the City Manager and this project is currently underway. Community Development Department: Carryover $243,900 from contractual services related to the General Plan Update. This is an on-going project like a CIP that spans over multiple fiscal years but is budgeted within the Community Development department budget.
Public Works Department: Carryover $52,200 for replacing the pump on Well #3 from the Water Fund. This project was not completed in FY 2034-24, creating the need to carryover these funds while the contractor completes the replacement. Public Works Department: Carryover $25,300 for replacing the galvanized service replacements from the Water Fund. This project is an ongoing work effort within the Water Division to upgrade as many as practical each fiscal year. Public Works Department: Carryover $114,200 for the Cash for Grass program from the Water Availability Special Revenue Fund that has been allocated to residents participating in the program but has not been processed for payment related to completion of work in FY 2023-24.
Police Department: Carryover $44,100 related to the Office of Traffic Safety (OTS) Grant for Traffic/DUI Enforcement Program. This Grant program operates from October 1, 2023, through September 30, 2024. This carryover is due to the misalignment of the program year ending in September but budgeted in FY 2023-
24.

SECTION 1: OVERVIEW OF FINANCIAL POSITION
CITY FUND STRUCTURE
The overall City budget is comprised of many individual funds, which are categorized below. This financial report will focus primarily on the Consolidated General Fund but will also report on all Governmental Funds.
Consolidated General Fund – The Consolidated General Fund is the primary operating fund of the City, which accounts for resources and services traditionally associated with government. The Consolidated General Fund provides administrative, financial, police protection, community development, public works, fire, and recreation services to the community and other funds. The Consolidated General Fund accounts for revenues that have unrestricted uses and are not required legally or by contractual agreement to be accounted for in another fund. The City has historically reported on the Consolidated General Fund separately from the Measure O 2006 Sales Tax Fund, although the City’s auditors traditionally combine this information in the Annual Comprehensive Financial Report (ACFR). The Measure O 2006 Sales Tax Fund accounts for the revenues derived from Measure O 2006, a local 1/2% sales tax approved by the City's voters in November 2006. Measure O 2006 included advisory measures when passed, providing direction on the uses to which the funding should be allocated. To ensure accountability, the measure included a provision requiring the City to publish and distribute an annual report to each household on the revenues and expenditures from the sales tax proceeds. To aid in the collection and reporting of this information, the City has accounted for this fund in a separate account.
This report will present information for the Consolidated General Fund that includes Measure O 2006 Sales Tax Fund revenues and expenditures.
Special Revenue Funds – Special revenue funds are used to account and report the proceeds of specific revenue sources that are restricted or committed to expenditure for specified purposes other than debt service or capital projects.
Debt Service Funds – This fund is used to account for the accumulation of resources and payment of longterm debt principal interest. This includes the USDA loan issued by the City to finance the relocation of City Hall.
Enterprise Funds - An enterprise fund is a separate accounting and financial reporting mechanism for which revenues and expenditures are segregated into a fund with financial statements separate from all other governmental activities. These funds include Water and Sewer services provided to City residents.
Private Purpose Fund – The private-purpose fund was created to hold the assets of the former Redevelopment Agency of the City of Arroyo Grande until they are distributed.
Agency Funds – Agency funds are funds that the City holds on behalf of another entity. Currently, there are three Agency funds. One is the Sanitation District fund, which accounts for the receipt and remittance of wastewater processing fees on behalf of the South San Luis Obispo County Sanitation District. The second is the Downtown Parking Fund, which collects assessments from Arroyo Grande Village merchants within the boundaries of the Parking and Business Improvement Area for maintenance of the Village parking lots. The third is the San Luis Obispo Tourism Marketing District (SLOTMD) Fund, which accounts for the receipt and remittance of assessments collected from lodging operators on behalf of the SLOTMD.

CURRENT YEAR ACTUALS COMPARED TO PRIOR YEAR
Table 1 below reflects revenue and expenditure patterns through the end of the first quarter of FY 2024- 25 and compares the current quarter results against the prior year’s results for all Governmental Funds as well as the City’s Consolidated General Fund. The totals in the table reflect the first quarter actuals for both revenue and expenditures, divided by that fiscal year’s annual budget.
Table 1
The following discussion focuses on both the City’s Governmental Funds and the Consolidated General Fund and provides a comparison between first quarter results for the current and prior year for both revenue and expenditures. Governmental Funds and Consolidated General Fund revenue and expenditures for the first quarter of this year are generally on Target with prior year. The Governmental Funds category includes Special Revenue Funds, Debt Service Funds, as well as the Consolidated General Fund.
Governmental Funds – At the end of the first quarter of FY 2024-25, Governmental Fund revenue was -13.4%, or $815,572 lower than prior year, and expenditures were higher by 8.9% or $661,218.

ATTACHMENT 1
The majority of the revenue and expenditure variances in Governmental Funds were attributed to variances within the Consolidated General Fund and the American Rescue Plan Act (ARPA) Fund, which is separate from the Consolidated General Fund and not otherwise addressed in this report.
The Governmental Funds category includes the Consolidated General Fund as well as other Special Revenue Funds. The Consolidated General Fund and ARPA Fund variances are explained as follows:
Consolidated General Fund - The Consolidated General Fund is the primary operating fund of the City and accounts for resources and services traditionally associated with government. Consolidated General Fund revenue in the first quarter was 6.6%, or $168,115 higher than the first quarter of the prior year. Expenditures increased by 9.2%, or $649,565 higher than the first quarter of the prior year.
The majority of the variance between the two fiscal years is related to increased costs of one-time payments for Liability and Property Insurance, CalPERS Unfunded Accrued Liability, and Workers Compensation.
ARPA Fund – The ARPA Fund was created to help separately track funding provided pursuant to the American Rescue Plan Act. This Act is intended to provide financial aid to families, governments, businesses, schools, non-profits, and others impacted by the COVID-19 public health crisis. To date, the City has received the full amount allocated, totaling $4,300,241. In FY 2021-22, expenditures totaled $604,246. In FY 2022-23, expenditures totaled $745,837. In FY 2023-24, expenditures incurred totaled $1,163,495. The remaining $1,786,663 is currently recognized as revenue in FY 2024-25.
CONSOLIDATED GENERAL FUND IMPACTS
The following discussion focuses on the City’s Consolidated General Fund performance. Chart 1 starts off with a simple overview of Consolidated General Fund performance compared to the Target. Next are expenditures by category (Table 2). This is followed by a summarized look at FY 2024-25 first quarter actual expenditures compared to the Target (Table 3). Lastly, a discussion of Consolidated General Fund revenue is included, which compares first quarter actual results to the Target (Table 4).
Using the Target as a comparator against actual results provides a simplified method to evaluate performance for each quarter. The Target for revenues does not use the 25% Target but a Target of 12.2% that more accurately reflects the anticipated revenues to be received in the first quarter of the fiscal year.
Revenue realization is typically low at the end of the first quarter of the fiscal year due to the timing of receipt of major tax revenues, the time lag involved in billing cycles, and the receipt of reimbursements.
The City’s actual first quarter financial results will be compared to both the prior year’s first quarter and the budgeted Target. The Target for expenditures is calculated as one-fourths (25%) of the FY 2024-25 Budget and represents the 3-month period from July 2024 through September 2024, except for the NonDepartmental Annual Payments line that has a Target of the full budget. This approach increased the Target from 25% to 30% for the first quarter.
ATTACHMENT 1
Chart 1
Chart 1 shows a simple comparison
of actual first quarter revenue and
expenditures to the Target. The
actual first quarter Consolidated
General Fund revenue is less than
the budgeted Target by $325,720,
which is not unusual since revenue
realization is typically lower than
the Target through the first quarter
due to the time lag involved in
billing cycles and the receipt of
reimbursements. Likewise, actual
expenditures through first quarter totaled $7.7 million, or 25% of the full year’s Budget, and are under the Target by $1.5 million. A more detailed discussion on Consolidated General Fund revenue and expenditure variances is included later in this report.
Table 2
Table 2 reflects major expenditure cost
categories within the Consolidated
General Fund. This chart is intended to
explain where the City’s resources were
spent during the first quarter. Within the
total expenditures of $7.7 million, 60% of
the City’s costs are associated with
personnel, 37.7% with operating and
maintenance, 1.2% for the City’s debt
service, 0.0% for Capital Outlay, and 1.1% with transfers to other funds.
Table 3 reflects the first quarter status of all Consolidated General Fund operating departments. Some departments include multiple divisions. The divisions are consolidated under their respective department rather than reflected individually within the table.

Table 3 – Consolidated General Fund Expenditures by Department Overall, first quarter expenditures were $1.5 million under the Target. The majority of City departments were under spent, except for Non-Departmental Annual Payments and Recreation Services. Some of the more significant savings occurred in the Police, Administrative Services, Community Development, and Public Works Departments. A more detailed explanation of key expenditure variances by individual department/division is provided below.
KEY EXPENDITURE VARIANCES FOR INDIVIDUAL DIVISIONS/DEPARTMENTS FOR FISCAL YEAR 2024-25
Police Services includes the functions of Administration, Patrol Services, Support Services and the Office of
Traffic Safety (OTS) Grant for Traffic/DUI Enforcement
Program. For simplicity, Police Services will be analyzed in total rather than by individual divisions. Some of the more significant variances include:
The Police Department currently has three vacancies throughout the first quarter fiscal year, resulting in labor savings of approximately $353,300.
The contract with the County Sheriff Department for dispatch services is paid semiannually in the months of December and June. Payments for these services will not be made until the second and fourth quarters, resulting in a first quarter favorable variance to the Target of $138,200. The variance for Police Administration through the end of the first quarter results from City’s contract with the County for Animal Control Services; the July through September payment was made in the second quarter, resulting in a first quarter favorable variance to the Target of $26,400. The Police Department administers the ABC Grant and OTS Traffic Enforcement program that operate of the federal fiscal year from October 1, 2023, to September 30, 2024, these programs had savings totaling $12,800.

The Administrative Services Department includes the
City’s Fiscal and Information Technology functions, as
well as Non-Departmental expenditures. This budget
included a line item reflecting budgeted Transfers Out
to Capital Improvement Program (CIP) Projects; the July through September allocation toward projects is
completed once a project is finished or at the end of the fiscal year. This represents all of the first quarter favorable variance to the Target.
The Community Development Department includes the
functions of Planning and Building & Safety Divisions.
The majority of the favorable variance in this
department can be attributed to salary savings and
lower spending in contractual services. Some of the
more significant variances include:
The Building Division contractual services has a variance of $140,000 related to the timing of invoices from CSG Consultants, the billing is based on services provided in each month. The July, August, and September invoices were paid in October.
Contractual services for the Planning Division had savings of approximately $114,000 related to the Comprehensive General Plan Update, this is an ongoing update that is anticipated to be carried over in FY 2024-25.
The Building Permit Technician position has been on medical leave and the Intern position has been vacant the first quarter of the fiscal year resulted in a portion of the Division’s overall labor savings totaling approximately $30,000.
The Public Works Department includes the functions of
Government Buildings, Engineering, Auto Shop,
Administration, Park Maintenance, and Soto Sports
Complex Divisions within the Consolidated General
Fund. The majority of the favorable variance in this
department can be attributed to salary savings. For
simplicity. Some of the more significant variances
include:
The Public Works Administration Division has a vacant Capital Projects Manager, Assistant Capital Projects Manager, and Engineering Inspector for the first quarter of the fiscal year resulting in labor savings of approximately $116,500.
The Engineering Division has savings of approximately $30,200 that can be attributed to lower spending in contractual services. Contractual Services in this Division is generally spent towards contract engineering services, including services for State and Federal grant coordination, development review, special assignments, checking of maps and plans, surveying services, traffic engineering, GIS, and other related storm water permits and reports.

KEY REVENUE VARIANCES BY ACCOUNT FOR THE FIRST QUARTER
Table 4 – Consolidated General Fund Revenue
As reflected in Table 4, first quarter revenue is below the Target by $325,720. This table uses a Target of
12.4% that more accurately reflects the anticipated revenues to be received in the first quarter of the fiscal year. Revenue realization is typically low at the end of the first quarter of the fiscal year due to the time lag involved in billing cycles and the receipt of reimbursements. A more detailed discussion is included below to help explain actual revenue variances through the first quarter compared to the Target.
Property Tax – The majority of the City’s property tax revenue comes from Secured Property Taxes. This tax is billed on a fiscal year (July 1- June 30) basis and is payable in two (2) annual installments. Property owners typically receive their first property tax bill at the end of September or early October, with a due date of November 1st. The majority of property tax related to the first installment will be received in December 2024. The second property tax bill installment is received in April 2025 and will be included in the fourth quarter report. Property tax typically represents around 26% of the City’s annual revenue. The Target is based on one month of Property Tax revenue. Actual revenue received in this category was lower than this conservative Target.
Sales Tax and Measure O 2006 Sales Tax Fund – Sales tax and Measure O 2006 Sales Tax Fund realization through first quarter is on track. Actual sales tax revenue received through the first quarter was $391,441, and Measure O 2006 Sales Tax Fund revenue received through the first quarter was $318,348, which represents one month of payments (July). The Target is also based on one month of revenue, taking into account the timing of anticipated payments.

ATTACHMENT 1
Transient Occupancy Tax (TOT) – TOT revenue is reflecting a $77,700 favorable variance to the Target.
The Target and actual TOT revenue represents only two months of TOT receipts due to the timing of payments. Lodging facilities have thirty days after the month’s end to make their TOT payments.
Property Tax in Lieu of Vehicle License Fees (VLF) – Property tax in lieu of VLF is received in two installments during the fiscal year. Typically, the revenue is received in the months of January (3rd quarter) and June (4th quarter). The Target for this revenue is zero in the first quarter.
Franchise Fees – Only two months of Waste Connection franchise fees were received through first quarter. In addition, Charter Communications franchise fees earned in the first quarter will not be paid and received until the second quarter. In light of the timing of payments, the Target is based on 2 months of revenue. Without the Charter communications franchise fee receipts, the actual revenue at the end of the first quarter is lower than the Target by $32,135.
License & Permit Fees, User Fees, and Planning Fees – License and permit revenue is below the Target by $16,742. User fee revenue is above the Target by $76,728. Planning revenue exceeded the Target by $18,727. The Target is based on 25% or 3 months of the fiscal year’s total budget. Revenue in this category is customer driven and fluctuates over the course of a year as well as year over year based on demand.
Recreation Fees – Recreation revenue is above the Target by $1,971. The Target is based on 3 months of the fiscal year’s total budget.
Other Revenues – This revenue category includes business license tax, fines, revenue from other government agencies, charges for services and any other revenues accounts received in the consolidated general fund. The largest variance in this category is related to three revenue accounts. The revenue from other government agencies accounts for the SB 1090 funds earmarked for use of the general plan update.
Once these funds are spent for this project, the revenue will be recognized at that time, resulting in a revenue shortfall to the Target of approximately $90,900. Lucia Mar Reimbursement related to the School Resource Officer payment due in September has not been received, creating a variance of $20,475. The majority of the revenue from Business Licenses is received in December and January of each year, resulting in a revenue shortfall to the Target of approximately $21,200.

The table only includes permanent staff and does not include part-time or temporary staffing. While departments may hire part-time staff on a regular or seasonal basis, they are not included in the analysis below.
EMPLOYEE VACANCY RATE
The City’s employee vacancy rate at the end of the first quarter of FY 2024-25 was 7.7%. This equates to six (6) vacant positions. The vacancy rate tracks the number of permanent vacant positions at the end of the quarter in comparison to the total number of permanent positions available. Unlike a turnover rate, which tracks employees that separated during the period, the vacancy rate only looks at vacancies at the end of period. The costs associated with turnover includes the cost of advertising new positions, training, overtime, lowered productivity, and workload balance.

SECTION 4: APPROPRIATION TRANSFERS AND BUDGET ADJUSTMENTS Administrative and Previously-Approved First Quarter Budget Adjustments The following first quarter budget adjustments were previously approved by the City Council or are classified as administrative and not requiring City Council approval.
Capital Improvement: Administrative Carryover of $6,107,699 for the Capital Projects listed in the table below. Capital Project funds do not have annual appropriated budgets. Control over capital projects is maintained by a project-length capital improvement budget. This project-length budget authorizes total expenditures over the duration of a construction project, rather than year by year.
Police Department: Receive $155,600 of California Highway Patrol Grant funds and appropriated the funding to help address ongoing traffic safety concerns. Approved on August 13, 2024, City Council meeting, Item 9.g.
Police Department: Receive $75,000 of Office of Traffic Safety Grant funds and appropriated the funding to implement driving under the influence enforcement services. Approved on September 9, 2024, City Council meeting, Item 9.d.
Additional Requested First Quarter Budget Adjustments
In addition to the administrative budget adjustments for the CIP and the adjustments previously-approved by the City Council during the first quarter, twelve new budget adjustments are proposed for approval along with the review and receipt of this report.

Nine of the adjustments request to carryover funds for non-CIP projects that were budgeted in FY 2023- 24 and were not completed in that fiscal year but are expected to be completed in the current year. These five requested carryover adjustments include:
Affordable Housing Trust Fund: Appropriate $448,370.37 from the Affordable Housing Trust Fund Balance to support the development of Housing Authority of San Luis Obispo (HASLO)’s affordable housing project consisting of 63 affordable multi-family units located at 700 Oak Park Blvd. Approved on July 25, 2023, City Council meeting, Item 9.m. City Council: Reallocate $21,500 from the retraining scholarship program funded using SB 1090 funds. This program was approved at the March 9, 2021, City Council meeting, Item 10.a., The original approval was for $40,000. In FY 2021-22, $15,000 was spent and in FY 2022-23, $3,500 was spent. This program has now ended. The reallocation of $21,500 would support a “buy local” program for business impacted by the Traffic Way Bridge CIP project. City Manager’s Office: Carryover $37,500 related to Economic Development Consultant. This work effort was delayed during the recruitment and hiring process of the new City Manager and the project is currently underway.
Community Development Department: Carryover $243,900 from contractual services related to the General Plan Update. This is an on-going project like a CIP that spans over multiple fiscal years but is budgeted within the Community Development department budget. Public Works Department: Carryover $52,200 for replacing the pump on Well #3 from the Water Fund. This project was not completed in FY 2034-24, creating the need to carryover these funds while the contractor completes the replacement.
Public Works Department: Carryover $25,300 for replacing the galvanized service replacements from the Water Fund. This project is an ongoing work effort within the Water Division to upgrade as many as practical each fiscal year.
Public Works Department: Carryover $114,200 for the Cash for Grass program from the Water Availability Special Revenue Fund that has been allocated to residents participating in the program but has not been processed for payment related to completion of work in FY 2023-24. Police Department: Carryover $44,100 related to the Office of Traffic Safety (OTS) Grant for Traffic/DUI Enforcement Program. This Grant program operates from October 1, 2023, through September 30, 2024. This carryover is due to the misalignment of the program year ending in September but budgeted in FY 2023-24.
Police Department: Carryover $28,047 related to the Alcoholic Beverage Control (ABC) 4207 Grant for implementing public awareness, minor decoy operations, shoulder tap operations, Informed Merchants preventing Alcohol-Related Crime Tendencies (IMPACT), and generally, implementation of ABC Alcohol Policing Partnership program. This Grant program operates from October 1, 2023, through September 30, 2024. This carryover is due to the misalignment of the program year ending in September but budgeted in FY 2023-24.
Three additional budget adjustments are requested as described in more detail below:
Police Department: The proposed includes an increase in the Police Department’s COPS Grant Fund 271 budget to add 2 line items, reflecting a total increase of $128,900. This increase would include:
o Appropriate $48,900 from the COPS Grant Fund balance to purchase 19 Staccato Firearms new duty pistols.
ATTACHMENT 1
o Appropriate $80,000 from the COPS Grant Fund balance to purchase radio encryption equipment.
Finally, the reallocation of ARPA funds is included as a request. Reallocations of the City’s ARPA funding were approved at the February 8, 2022, May 24, 2022, September 27, 2022, May 9, 2023, April 9, 2024, and April 23, 2024 City Council meetings. As projects are completed and total costs are submitted the following Table was prepared to demonstrate a total overview of the City’s ARPA allocations. The first column in the Table shows the City Council Approved Allocation. The second column in the Table shows the spending through the end of FY 2023-24. The third column in the Table shows the anticipated spending of funds through the allotted ARPA deadline of December 31, 2024, to commit ARPA funds by way of a contract or purchase order and spend these monies no later than December 31, 2026. The final column in the Table shows funds that need to be reallocated, related to project savings.
Staff reviewed the 5-year Capital Improvement Project Plan, accessed any other outstanding projects that have risen as health and safety related issued, and reviewed the US Treasury issued its Final Rule governing eligible expenditures of the ARPA funds. With the timeframe to obligate all ARPA funds before December 31, 2024, staff recommends moving the remaining $267,993 to the revenue loss category. The revenue loss category can be used towards the provision of government services by the City and will be obligated in line with the U.S. Department of Treasury rules of obligation before December 31, 2024 (which requires a contract or agreement to further commit the funds).

MEMORANDUM
TO: City Council
FROM: Bill Robeson, Assistant City Manager/Public Works Director BY: Shannon Sweeney, City Engineer
SUBJECT: Accept the Public Safety Camera System Project, PW 2023-10 DATE: November 26, 2024
RECOMMENDATION:
1) Accept improvements as constructed by ADT Commercial, LLC (ADT), in accordance with the specifications for the Public Safety Camera System (PSCS) Project, PW 2023- 10;
2) Direct staff to file a Notice of Completion; and
3) Authorize release of retention thirty-five (35) days after the Notice of Completion has been recorded if no liens have been filed.
IMPACT ON FINANCIAL AND PERSONNEL RESOURCES:
The original bid price for this project was $430,411. Field change orders (contingency costs) of $81,073.04, or approximately 19%, were expended on this project to address utility deficiencies and additional features that were deemed necessary but were not included in the original project. The final contract and change orders totaled $511,484.04. $546,493 was budgeted for this project using ARPA funds. The project was completed within budget.
BACKGROUND:
Approximately seven years ago, the Police Department initiated a public safety camera system allowing police officers the ability to monitor and retain video footage from twentythree (23) cameras strategically placed throughout the City. This twenty-three-camera system soon failed, proved unreliable, and quickly became outdated at every location. The Police Department developed a plan to revitalize the camera system by entering into a contract with a vendor who could install and service cameras.
On November 28, 20231, City Council approved a contract to ADT to install the new Public Safety Camera System City-wide.

Item 9.d.
City Council
Accept the Public Safety Camera System Project, PW 2023-10 November 26, 2024
ANALYSIS OF ISSUES:
This Project was substantially completed on October 1, 2024. Punch list items remaining at that time included training, documentation, camera tuning, and reported issues on several specific cameras. As of the writing of the staff report, all punch list items have been resolved.
ALTERNATIVES:
The following alternatives are provided for the Council’s consideration:
1. Accept the PSCS Project and authorize release of retention;
2. Do not accept the project; or
3. Provide other direction to staff.
ADVANTAGES:
The project is complete and accepting the improvements allows staff to close out the project.
DISADVANTAGES:
No disadvantages have been identified in accepting this project.
ENVIRONMENTAL REVIEW:
The completed project is categorically exempt from the California Environmental Quality Act (“CEQA”) under the Class 2 exemption, which applies to the replacement or reconstruction of existing structures and facilities where the new structure will be located on the same site as the structure replaced and will have substantially the same purpose and capacity as the structure replaced. (State CEQA Guidelines, § 15302.) PUBLIC NOTIFICATION AND COMMENTS:
The Agenda was posted at City Hall and on the City’s website in accordance with Government Code Section 54954.2.

MEMORANDUM
TO: City Council
FROM: Bill Robeson, Assistant City Manager/Public Works Director BY: Shannon Sweeney, City Engineer
SUBJECT: Notice of Award, Cornwall Avenue Watermain Replacement Project, PW 2024-02
DATE: November 26, 2024
RECOMMENDATION:
1) Authorize the City Manager to execute a construction contract for the Cornwall Waterline Replacement Project to The J.F. Will Company, Inc. (”JF Will”) for $611,654.59 subject to any minor, technical, or non-substantive changes as approved by the City Manager in consultation with the City Attorney;
2) Authorize the City Manager to approve change orders of 10% of the contract amount, $61,165.46, for unanticipated costs during the construction phase of this Project; and 3) Find the action exempt from the California Environmental Quality Act under the Class 1 and Class 2 exemptions.
IMPACT ON FINANCIAL AND PERSONNEL RESOURCES:
The FY 2024-25 budget includes $750,000 for the Cornwall Waterline Replacement Project, consisting of the following funds: $578,700 from the American Rescue Plan Act (ARPA), and $171,300 from the Water Fund. Construction and contingency costs total $672,820.05, which is within the available budget.
BACKGROUND:
The City’s Water System Master Plan (the “Plan”) was adopted on January 22, 20131. In the Plan, it was recommended that several sections of cast iron water mains be replaced due to their condition and age, including a section of 8-inch cast iron pipe in Cornwall Avenue from west of El Camino Real to North Rena Street. This section of water main was installed in 1929, has a useful life of 50-100 years, and will be replaced with an equivalent-sized PVC pipe.

Item 9.e.
City Council
Notice of Award, Cornwall Avenue Watermain Replacement Project, PW 2024-02 November 26, 2024
The project includes replacing 1,350 feet of water main, new service connections (meters to water main), new fire hydrant laterals, and connections to piping on Alpine Street, Bell Street, and Oak Street.
The City advertised this project on October 17, 2024, on its website, in the local paper, and to nine firms capable of performing such work. Three bids were received ranging from $611,655 to $1,349,563 (Attachment 1).
ANALYSIS OF ISSUES:
The lowest bidder for the construction of the project was JF Will, with a bid of $611,655.
Staff reviewed the bid received by the lowest bidder to verify that it was responsive and responsible. Elements that were checked included bid bonding, the contractor’s license, and the math in the bid sheet schedule.
During the bid review, staff identified that the bid total based on the unit prices shown in the bid sheet schedule submitted at the time of bid opening did not equal the bid total written at the end of the bid sheet schedule. Staff contacted the contractor to discuss this discrepancy. The discrepancy is associated with two items: first, the contractor based the line-item prices on unit prices carried to four decimal points but only showed the unit prices to two decimal points on the original bid sheet schedule. Second, line item 24 of the bid sheet schedule listed a unit price of $73.85 for a quantity of 26 items, totaling $1,920.10, but the original bid sheet schedule total is $14,920.10. The contractor explained that a typo on the unit price for line item 24 should reflect $573.95, not $73.85 per item. This is a valid response since $573.95 times 26 equals $14,920.10, and the engineer’s estimate for that line item was $600 per unit, which is close to the $573.95 value.
The contractor submitted a corrected bid sheet schedule showing the line items to four decimal points and the corrected unit price in line item 24. With these corrections, the sum of the work is $611,654.59. The original and corrected bid sheet schedules are included as Exhibit B in the proposed construction agreement, which is attached as Attachment 2. Payment for the project will be based on the unit prices included in the corrected bid sheet schedule.
The bid documents for this project included the line “the City of Arroyo Grande reserves the right to accept or reject any or all bids or waive any informality in a bid.” City staff has determined that the discrepancies constitute informalities since the original total bid ($611,655.00) for the work is in line with the total after applying the corrected unit prices ($611,654.59).
ALTERNATIVES:
The following alternatives are provided for the Council’s consideration:
1. 1) Award a contract for the Cornwall Waterline Replacement Project to JF Will Company in the amount of $611,654.59 subject to any minor, technical, or nonPage 81 of 254 Item 9.e.
City Council
Notice of Award, Cornwall Avenue Watermain Replacement Project, PW 2024-02 November 26, 2024
substantive changes as approved by the City Manager in consultation with the City Attorney; 2) Authorize the City Manager to approve change orders for 10% of the contract amount, $61,165.46, for unanticipated costs during the construction phase of the project; and 3) Find the action exempt from the California Environmental Quality Act under the Class 1 and Class 2 exemptions;
2. Do not approve staff’s recommendations and request further information; or
3. Modify staff’s recommendation.
ADVANTAGES:
Replacing the water main on Cornwall Avenue from west of El Camino Real to North Rena Street will mitigate future issues of loss of water service and cost of repairs, future maintenance costs by utilizing new PVC pipe, and future disruptions to traffic and parking for maintenance and repairs.
DISADVANTAGES:
Replacement of the water main on Cornwall Avenue from west of El Camino Real to North Rena Street will result in a temporary shutdown of water service to customers during construction. Written notice will be provided, in advance, to all affected. The project will also result in temporary disruptions to vehicles and pedestrians, including parking, will occur. Signage and traffic flagging will be used during construction to minimize the impact.
ENVIRONMENTAL REVIEW:
The project is categorically exempt from the California Environmental Quality Act (CEQA) pursuant to the following:
Class 1, Section 15301 Existing Facilities – This project is categorically exempt from the California Environmental Quality Act (“CEQA”) under the Class 1 exemption, which applies to the operation, repair, maintenance, permitting, leasing, licensing, or minor alteration of existing structures, facilities, mechanical equipment, or topographical features where the project involves negligible or no expansion of existing or former use (State CEQA Guidelines, § 15301.), because it involves the minor alteration of an existing watermain and does not substantively change its existing use.
Class 2, Section 15302 Replacement or Reconstruction - This project is categorically exempt from the California Environmental Quality Act (“CEQA”) under the Class 2 exemption, which applies to the replacement or reconstruction of existing structures and facilities where the new structure will be located on the same site as the structure replaced and will have substantially the same purpose and capacity as the structure replaced (State CEQA Guidelines, § 15302.), because it involves replacing an old watermain with a new watermain in generally the same location and providing water service to the same properties.

MEMORANDUM
TO: City Council
FROM: Brian Pedrotti, Director of Community Development BY: Andrew Perez, Planning Manager
SUBJECT: General Plan Update Progress Report – November 2024 DATE: November 26, 2024
RECOMMENDATION:
Receive and file an update on the Comprehensive General Plan Update project.
IMPACT ON FINANCIAL AND PERSONNEL RESOURCES:
The financial and personnel impacts associated with this progress report are included in the budget for the Comprehensive General Plan Update.
BACKGROUND:
The last progress report for this project was presented to the City Council on October 22, 20241. That report described the initial efforts for the land use alternatives phase of the project and summarized the first meeting of the General Plan Citizens Advisory Group.
ANALYSIS OF ISSUES:
Work continues to be done on the current phase of the project, which consists of evaluating and developing land use alternatives for growth and development over the life of the new General Plan. An online mapping exercise was made available on the project website on October 22, 2024. Respondents are asked to identify areas, or specific sites, within the City where land use changes are appropriate and areas where growth should or should not occur. Changes may include increases in residential density, changes in land uses (residential, commercial, institutional, etc.), or development intensity. An analysis of land use alternatives will determine which areas are appropriate for housing, business and economic development, circulation and mobility, recreation, and open space for the life of the general plan. Development of policies and programs will hinge on the outcome of the land use alternatives phase, and therefore, staff is looking to maximize community involvement and input during this phase.

General Plan Update Progress Report – November 2024
November 26, 2024
In an effort to maximize community involvement, a postcard was mailed to every postal customer in the city to publicize and encourage participation in the survey. Community members who are signed up to receive notifications (approximately 320) about the project were also sent an email about the survey. Additionally, staff was present at the Soto Sports Complex on Saturday, November 9, 2024, during the AYSO Tournament to educate residents about the survey and project in general. Finally, the City’s social media accounts also posted about the survey.
At the conclusion of the activities planned for this phase, the land use alternatives will be presented to the Planning Commission in March for a recommendation, then ultimately to City Council to select a preferred land use alternative during a meeting in April. The preferred land use alternative will shape the land use map and guide the preparation of General Plan goals, policies, and implementation programs.
ALTERNATIVES:
The following alternatives are provided for the Council’s consideration:
1. Receive and file the update on the Comprehensive General Plan Update; or
2. Provide other direction to staff.
ADVANTAGES:
Regular updates to the City Council will inform decision-makers and the community on the status of the project.
DISADVANTAGES:
None identified.
ENVIRONMENTAL REVIEW:
No environmental review is required for this General Plan Update. An EIR will be necessary to evaluate the potential impacts of the update, which has been included in the scope of work.

TO: City Council
FROM: Brian Pedrotti, Director of Community Development BY: Shayna Gropen, Assistant Planner
SUBJECT: Citywide Utility Box Painting, Phase Three (Staff Project 24-006); Applicant – Shirley Horacek, Arroyo Grande Public Art
DATE: November 26, 2024
RECOMMENDATION:
1) Adopt a Resolution approving a Public Art Project to paint utility boxes, accepting donations of time and materials, and waiving permit application fees; and 2) Determine that painting of utility boxes is categorically exempt from the California Environmental Quality Act (“CEQA”) pursuant to Section 15301 of the State CEQA Guidelines.
IMPACT ON FINANCIAL AND PERSONNEL RESOURCES:
All time and materials necessary for the preparation and painting of the utility boxes will be donated by the applicant, valued at approximately $6,250. The City will be responsible for ongoing maintenance costs. The applicant has submitted a request for the waiver of fees associated with both the permit application and the minor encroachment. If approved, this waiver would result in the loss of $1,414.75 in revenue.
BACKGROUND:
On May 141, 2024, the City Council adopted Resolution 5358, amending the Public Art Guidelines and Public Art Donation Program2(“the Guidelines”). Under these new guidelines, all public art projects require review by the Architectural Review Committee (ARC), who shall make a recommendation to the City Council. The Guidelines outline information regarding selection criteria, the purpose of the guidelines, and the approval process.

Item 10.a.
City Council
Citywide Utility Box Painting, Phase Three (Staff Project 24-006); Applicant – Shirley Horacek, Arroyo Grande Public Art
November 26, 2024
Project Background:
The City Council formally approved the initial phase of the project in October 2022, which entailed the painting of four (4) utility boxes within the City. In October 2023, the City Council approved the second phase, resulting in the painting of an additional four boxes.
The third and final phase of the “Art Outside the Box” project will encompass the painting of five additional utility boxes.
Staff Advisory Committee (SAC):
On October 2, 2024, the SAC discussed recommendations for five locations of the proposed artwork. The applications and proposed designs are available in Attachment 2, while the preferred locations can be viewed in Attachment 3. The locations of the utility boxes, along with the names of the corresponding proposed designs, are detailed as follows:
1. 1053 East Grand Avenue—Oh So Sweet; Anne B Young
2. Southwest corner of El Camino Real and North Halcyon Road, near cemetery— Joyful Soaring in the Clouds; Deborah Lord
3. Fair Oaks and Traffic Way intersection, in front of the car dealership— Skating the Streets of Arroyo Grande; Bijou Burns
4. Northwest corner of East Grand Avenue and North Elm Street—Magpie Afternoon—Erik Davison
5. Northeast corner of North Oak Park Boulevard and West Branch Street— Sun She Rises; Katriel Ford
The SAC was supportive of the project and recommended approval to the City Council.
Architectural Review Committee (ARC):
The ARC reviewed the proposal on October 7th, 2024 (Attachment 4). The ARC expressed its support for the third round of utility box paintings, as well as for the specific artworks proposed for placement in their recommended locations. The designs were deemed to strike an appropriate balance between artistic expression, reflecting the spirit of the city, and showcasing the diverse backgrounds and perspectives of its residents.
Based on the selection criteria the ARC recommends approval of the project as presented.
ANALYSIS OF ISSUES:
Review Process Under Public Art Guidelines
The purpose of the Guidelines is to establish a framework to facilitate and encourage property owners to provide outdoor public art. For the purposes of these Guidelines, "Public Art" shall mean art located either:
1. On private property with a non-residential land use that is visible from a public right of way or public property;
2. In the adjacent public right of way; or
Item 10.a.
City Council
Citywide Utility Box Painting, Phase Three (Staff Project 24-006); Applicant – Shirley Horacek, Arroyo Grande Public Art
November 26, 2024
3. On property owned or managed by the City of Arroyo Grande (City), that is openly displayed to the public without charge.
These Guidelines establish the City's goals regarding art that is publicly displayed and accessible to the public. The City recognizes that art and artistic expression is a protected activity and these Guidelines are not intended to unduly restrict creative expression or limit the types of public art possible. Rather, they are intended to facilitate and encourage the best possible combination of sites and artwork and help to guide what is essentially a form of communication between the artist and the community.
Following an initial determination on the completeness of the application by the Community Development Department, the ARC reviewed all public art applications and made a recommendation to the City Council. The Selection Criteria, which both ARC and the City Council will use to review applications, is discussed below.
In its review of the application, the City Council will consider any material submitted by the applicant, city staff, the administrative record of the decision on the application, and evidence presented at the hearing. The applicant shall be given a reasonable time to present their case. The City Council shall use the Selection Criteria as the basis for its decision. The City Council may:
1. Request the applicant to clarify its proposal or redesign and resubmit its proposal to ARC or City Council. If the City Council requests that the applicant resubmit the proposal to ARC, the resubmitted proposal shall be reviewed as if a new application; or
2. Approve the proposal, providing a written explanation of the basis for approval through the Selection Criteria; or
3. Deny the proposal, providing a written explanation of the basis for denial through the Selection Criteria. All decisions of the City Council are final and conclusive.
Selection criteria consist of the following:
1. Evaluation of artistic excellence, examining:
a. The artist’s qualifications, including education, training, experience, body of work, recognition of the artist, and the consistency of the artist’s qualifications with the stated goals of the project;
b. The artist’s record of previous collaboration with other agencies, organizations, artists, fabricators, or installers to achieve a successful result in implementing the proposed project;
c. The artist’s experience working in the public realm; d. To the extent applicable, the artist’s previous proven successful experience in creating, producing or otherwise implementing projects similar to the one proposed;
e. The original nature of the proposed concept;
f. The inherent artistic quality and aesthetic merit of the work;
Item 10.a.

November 26, 2024
2. Appropriateness of scale, form, material, content and design relative to the immediate neighborhood and environment; no mural shall be approved if the mural, as proposed, would create an objective risk to public health, safety, or welfare (e.g. a mural near a roadway would be rejected for the use of reflective materials, like mirrors, which could cause a distraction to drivers). Scale is defined as the relative size of a building element in relation to other forms and the human body. Form is the shape or configuration of the artwork;
3. Appropriateness of proposed materials in regard to structural and surface integrity.
Materials should be considered in the context of ability to deter against vandalism, withstand weathering, and maintain the intended design;
4. Ease of maintenance and longevity of the proposed materials;
5. Appropriateness of the proposed method of installation of the artwork with consideration given to the safety and structural factors involved in installation;
6. Location, considering the intended audience for the proposal, whether the public will be a captive audience or whether a person would need to take affirmative steps to view the project. Consideration shall be given to whether the mural would be in an area typically accessed or viewable by minors;
7. A mural shall not be approved if it includes:
a. Copyrighted work without permission of the holder of the copyright. b. Obscene materials.
c. Defamatory content.
d. Fighting words or advocates imminent lawless action. e. Content, including but not limited to, words, symbols, signs, trademarks, or references to products or services provided on the premises. Such content meets the Arroyo Grande Municipal Code (AGMC) definition for signage, as regulated by AGMC Chapter 16.60;
As detailed in the findings in the attached resolution, the proposed utility box painting proposal is consistent with these selection criteria.
Fee Waiver Request
The applicant has requested the application fees associated with the permit be waived. If approved, this waiver would result in the loss of $1,414.75 in revenue. Revenue generated from application fees and encroachment permit fees is utilized to offset the costs associated with processing the respective applications. The City Council has previously approved fee waiver requests for public art, including the prior utility box paintings and the Strother Park basketball court painting. Staff recommends that the proposed fee waiver request of $1,414.75 required for the project be granted by the City Council because the applicant is providing a public art donation, and the project will provide a benefit to the public at large.

ADVANTAGES:
Granting approval for the donation of time and materials, as well as waiving the application and encroachment permit fees for the proposed public art installations, will enhance the appearance of existing utility boxes, thereby benefiting the community.
DISADVANTAGES:
None identified.
ENVIRONMENTAL REVIEW:
The painting of utility boxes is categorically exempt from the California Environmental Quality Act (“CEQA”) under the Class 1 exemption, which applies to the operation, repair, maintenance, permitting, leasing, licensing, or minor alteration of existing structures, facilities, mechanical equipment, or topographical features where the project involves negligible or no expansion of existing or former use. (State CEQA Guidelines, § 15301.) None of the exceptions to the Class 1 exemption apply to the painting of utility boxes because: the locations of the project will not result in any significant environmental impacts; there will not be any cumulative environmental impacts as a result of the project; the project does not impact or damage any scenic resources; the project is not located on a hazardous waste site; and the project does not adversely affect any historic resources.

WHEREAS, the City’s Architectural Review Committee (ARC) reviewed and recommended the City Council approve the proposed painting of utility boxes (“project”) on October 7, 2024 in accordance with the City’s Public Art Guidelines and Public Art Donation Program (the “Guidelines”); and
WHEREAS, on November 26, 2024, the City Council reviewed the project at a duly noticed public hearing; and
WHEREAS, the City Council finds that the project will have a public benefit and therefore the application fee of $1,044.75 can be waived; and WHEREAS, when the City Council approves art on public property, such art becomes the property and speech of the government, and in order to submit an application, the artist waives all rights under the Visual Artists Rights Act, 17 U.S.C. §§106A and 113(d) and the California Art Preservation Act, Cal. Civil Code §§ 987 and 989.
1. Recitals. All recitals above are true and correct and hereby incorporated into reference.
2. CEQA. The painting of utility boxes is categorically exempt from the California Environmental Quality Act (“CEQA”) under the Class 1 exemption, which applies to the operation, repair, maintenance, permitting, leasing, licensing, or minor alteration of existing structures, facilities, mechanical equipment, or topographical features where the project involves negligible or no expansion of existing or former use. (State CEQA Guidelines, § 15301.) None of the exceptions to the Class 1 exemption apply to the painting of utility boxes because: the location of the project will not result in any significant environmental impacts; there will not be any cumulative environmental impacts as a result of the project; the project does not impact or damage any scenic resources; the project is not located on a hazardous waste site; and the project does not adversely affect any historic resources.
3. Public Art Selection Criteria:

PAGE 2
experience in creating, producing or otherwise implementing projects similar to the one proposed;
d. The original nature of the proposed concept;
e. The inherent artistic quality and aesthetic merit of the work; The applicant has engaged skilled and qualified artists with a proven track record in executing similar projects, both in terms of scale, medium, and public placement. The proposed conceptual designs are original, thoughtfully crafted with the Arroyo Grande community in mind. The artwork reflects a high standard of artistic quality, elevating what would otherwise be a utilitarian street fixture into a meaningful work of art.
2. Appropriateness of scale, form, material, content and design relative to the immediate neighborhood and environment; no mural shall be approved if the mural, as proposed, would create an objective risk to public health, safety, or welfare (e.g. a mural near a roadway would be rejected for the use of reflective materials, like mirrors, which could cause a distraction to drivers).
Scale is defined as the relative size of a building element in relation to other forms and the human body. Form is the shape or configuration of the artwork;
The proposed designs are well-suited to their intended locations, both in terms of materials and content, with the scale of the artwork being appropriately sized for utility boxes. The applicant plans to prepare the surfaces by sanding, taping where necessary, and sealing the artwork for durability. The materials, scale, form, content, and overall design have been carefully selected to ensure they do not pose any adverse impact on public safety.
3. Appropriateness of proposed materials in regards to structural and surface integrity. Materials should be considered in the context of ability to deter against vandalism, withstand weathering, and maintain the intended design; The donation of time and materials will support the project, which includes the use of materials commonly employed in public art installations. The selected materials are of high quality, designed to enhance the surface integrity of the utility boxes and to endure natural weathering over time. In the event of vandalism, these materials can be easily repainted. Furthermore, the chosen materials are intended to provide protection against damage from sunlight, moisture, and general wear.
4. Ease of maintenance and longevity of the proposed materials; The proposal was designed to reduce maintenance needs, and the proposed materials are durable and intended for outdoor applications. As stated in prior findings, the sealant prevents damage to the artwork itself. Acrylic paint will be used, which dries quickly and is waterproof once dry. Costs of maintenance are
RESOLUTION NO.
PAGE 3
estimated as minimal by the applicant because of the use of materials that withstand sun, water, and other natural elements.
5. Appropriateness of the proposed method of installation of the artwork with consideration given to the safety and structural factors involved in installation; The artwork is planned to be installed by the artists in a manner that will enhance the durability and longevity of the installation. Additionally, no structural alterations are proposed as part of the project—only cosmetic painting. To preserve the functionality of the utility boxes, keyholes, hinges, and other movable elements will be carefully taped off to prevent any interference with their operation.
6. Location, considering the intended audience for the proposal, whether the public will be a captive audience or whether a person would need to take affirmative steps to view the project. Consideration shall be given to whether the mural would be in an area typically accessed or viewable by minors; The proposed utility box designs have been selected for key public intersections around the city, with locations chosen based on recommendations from the Architectural Review Committee and City Staff. In areas with high foot traffic from minors, the designs have been carefully selected to feature themes and interests that resonate with younger audiences.
7. A mural shall not be approved if it includes:
a. Copyrighted work without permission of the holder of the copyright. b. Obscene materials.
c. Defamatory content.
d. Fighting words or advocates imminent lawless action. e. Content, including but not limited to, words, symbols, signs, trademarks, or references to products or services provided on the premises. Such content meets the Arroyo Grande Municipal Code (AGMC) definition for signage, as regulated by AGMC Chapter 16.60;
The artwork, as proposed, does not contain any of the above prohibited types of speech or content.
4. Waiver of Application Fees Finding
1. The project will be available for the public at-large and the project will be used or will benefit more than the residents of the immediate vicinity; and
2. The project will be of obvious public benefit because it provides beautification of existing public facilities through the application of public artwork.
5. Severability. If any section, division, sentence, clause, phrase or portion of this resolution or the document in the record in support of this resolution is determined by a court of competent jurisdiction to be invalid, unenforceable, unconstitutional or
RESOLUTION NO.

Subject: Fw: TPM 23-001-Meeting Date October 15, 2024
Dear Mr. Pedrotti, Mr. Perez, Mr. Holub, Ms. Gropen, and Ms. Riddering.
I understand that there is another meeting about the proposed development on Lierly in Arroyo Grande. We were hopeful that the development plans had been denied and yet here it is again on the agenda. I am resending my initial email regarding the October 15 meeting date to inform you that my husband and I are still strongly opposed to the development.
Warmly,

dated May 7, 2024, as well as engaging in discussions with representatives from MBS Land Surveys, Andrew Darrell, and Kerry Margason, we have noted several significant deviations from the original proposal that warrant attention.
The initial proposal indicated that the development would follow the historical layout of the Ranchos Corral de Piedra and Balsa de Chemical, as recorded in the 1886 R.R. Harris survey.
However, recent developer maps and parcel suggestions suggest marked revisions, specifically regarding the proposed use of driveways adjacent to Myrtle Drive. This includes the south driveway, which the developers had initially proposed for emergency access, contingent upon the agreement of adjacent families who are responsible for the driveway's maintenance.
Of particular concern is the shift towards using the north driveway for emergency access, which was not part of the original plan. The new proposal suggests replacing an existing fence with a gate restricted to emergency access only, with no through traffic or pedestrian use.
However, as one of the three families responsible for maintaining this north driveway, we have significant concerns about the enforcement of such a restriction.
We strongly believe that, despite the developers' assurances, the emergency access gate could be used improperly by residents of the development and Lierly Lane, turning what is meant to be a restricted access point into a commonly used thoroughfare. This would place an undue burden on us, the adjacent property owners, who are already responsible for maintaining this private driveway.
Given these concerns, we firmly oppose the proposed reassignment of emergency access to the northern driveway adjacent to 307 Myrtle Drive. We request that this matter be reconsidered, and that the original proposal or a more suitable alternative be adhered to to ensure the protection of the interests of all affected property owners.
Considering these concerns, we would like to highlight that the proposed development may not fully comply with the California Subdivision Map Act (Government Code § 66473.5), which requires that subdivision plans, including driveway access, must be consistent with the local zoning ordinance and undergo appropriate public review. Additionally, under California Civil Code § 845, all parties benefitting from the shared private driveway must contribute to its maintenance, and any shift in usage (such as for emergency access) must be agreed upon by those responsible for its upkeep. Furthermore, the proposed change to emergency access may require a new environmental review under the California Environmental Quality Act (Public Resources Code § 21000), as it could have significant effects on traffic, safety, and property use. We therefore request that these legal considerations be addressed before any changes to the development plan are finalized.
Thank you for your attention to this matter. We look forward to a resolution that considers the concerns of those responsible for the maintenance and use of these driveways.
Sincerely,
Mark and Ingrid Kovacs

Subject: Comment on 11/26 meeting agenda item 10.b Appeal Case 24-002; Date: Friday, November 22, 2024 8:04:43 PM
Dear City Council Members,
I live around the corner from the proposed development at 444 Lierly Lane. I am writing to express to you several concerns about this project. While I acknowledge the necessity to increase housing in the city, there are several issues with this particular location:
1. There is no public road access to the proposed development. The existing dirt ‘road’ is completely on the private property of a home on the corner Lierly Lane & E Cherry (dirt Cherry). The public easement is only 8 feet wide and contains several power poles, a fire hydrant and a mailbox right in the middle of it. It basically exists as utility easement, not a road. If the homeowner with the private road on their property installs a fence on the property line (which they have every right to do), no one in the new development or the current existing homes on Lierly Lane, would be able to access their homes.
2. The proposed Emergency Access is on a private driveway on Myrtle Dr. This is a private driveway, not a road. Currently, UPS trucks and delivery trucks don’t enter that driveway due to the narrow access.
3. At the previous Planning Commission meetings, it was pointed out that the home at 795 E Cherry was permitted to be built in appx. 2021-22, without installing the required curbs and gutters and without paving the road in front of the house. Also, I believe there is an 8 foot easement in front of the house which has been landscaped and a fence installed right up to the roadway.
There is no agricultural buffer between the home and the farm across “dirt Cherry.” If at some point, the city could get ‘dirt’ Cherry, as well as Lierly, paved and widened to code, like the adjacent neighborhood (Cherry Creek Estates), the entire area would be more amenable to future development.
I am fully supportive of adding much needed housing to our community. However, I feel strongly that any new development should follow City codes regarding road width, circulation, paved streets, as well as, installing curbs and gutters. It is essential for public safety and long term development. The current proposal does not meet those standards and so I urge you to deny the application.
Sincerely,
Susan Evard
If this Council disagrees with me and votes to approve this subdivision, then the city proposes to install an emergency access gate at the end of our shared driveway, so that the fire department can use an existing emergency easement to access the Lierly properties using our 20-foot-wide, paved shared driveway. I ask that you specify that the access be a solid gate, so that we would not be looking directly into someone’s backyard, and so that we don’t have to deal with aggressively barking dogs in that backyard, barking through open slats in a gate every time we enter our own home. The only access to our house is via our shared driveway. I ask that the gate be inaccessible to pedestrians. The emergency easement on our shared driveway is only a fire department right to pass on our private property in the event of an emergency, not a pedestrian walkway. If the gate has to swing open, it should swing onto the applicant’s lot, not ours. We have landscaped the dirt adjacent to the existing 6’ fence. If our landscaping or its irrigation is damaged, I ask that the developer be required to replace it, and I ask that the burden of maintaining the gate fall on the developers and their buyers, not upon us.
I ask you to affirm the denial of the subdivision on appeal, and to reject the proposed subdivision because it is wholly without minimum safe roadway infrastructure for the added traffic. It is inconsistent with the municipal code and with the existing neighborhood, and inconsistent with the concept that the city had in mind for the eventual development of the neighborhood.
I understand that the applicants are requesting that this appeal be continued into January. My preference is that the council deny the continuance and simply affirm the Planning Commission’s denial of the proposed subdivision, unless the City Council requires more time to prepare.
Sincerely,
David Pomeroy

Subject: 444 Lierly Lane Appeal Case 24-002
To: Caren Ray Russom <[email protected]>,
<[email protected]>, <[email protected]>, <[email protected]>, <[email protected]> I am writing to express to you several concerns about the proposed development at 444 Lierly Lane that was unanimously denied by the Planning Commission last month and now is being appealed to your council. While the city recognizes the need for additional housing, this project does not meet city engineering standards and policies if approved as submitted and is completely unsafe for vehicle travel on both East Cherry and Lierly Lane. City ordinance requires 20' wide roads
unless the city finds that there is no way to get wider access and that approving the narrow road would not detrimentally affect the welfare, health, or safety of the community and would not damage property.
At previous Planning Commission meetings on this request, one of the major issues with the proposal is the lack of safe road access at Lierly Lane and East Cherry. Lierly Lane access is complicated by the fact that there is an 8 foot easement that currently has a fire hydrant, power poles and a community mailbox on the easement, making it impassable. Residents currently must enter and exit Lierly by driving on an individual's private property which is creating unsafe conditions and damaging his property. In fact, this property owner could install a fence to prevent cars from traveling on his property which would restrict residents from even being able to enter and exit their homes.
To complicate it further, a home at 795 East Cherry
was permitted to be built without installing required curbs and gutters and without paving the road, creating a situation where cars cannot pass safely because of the narrow road.
This access is clearly substandard and does not follow city standards and certainly unsafe for 4 additional residences with potential for 5 ADU's and 20+ cars making multiple trips per day. This road wasn't designed for this type of density. The current situation is unsafe and doesn't follow city engineering standards and policies and this additional development would exacerbate this even further.
Emergency access easements were approved in 2007 for two private driveways on Myrtle Drive for the purpose of a multihome development that never occured. This proposed development included city standard wide streets, sidewalks and gutters and cul de sacs. These private driveways are not adequate for large fire trucks or other emergency vehicles. Currently, UPS trucks don't enter these driveways due to
the narrow access and private access for the residents. These driveways are so narrow that two cars are unable to pass each other.
The emergency access easement was approved in 2007 as a second emergency access point for a multihome development, not as a primary access point for a subdivision of one lot.
I hope the City Council will agree with Planning staff recommendations and Planning Commission's decision to deny this project. It clearly does not meet city standards and is unsafe. There is no reason to continue this hearing to a future date, nothing has changed to make the project acceptable.
Respecfully,
Robin Greene

Subtotal $10,646 $8,353 $8,353
Total $64,255
IMPACT ON FINANCIAL AND PERSONNEL RESOURCES:
The County of San Luis Obispo (the “County”) has estimated that $64,255 in CDBG funds will be available to the City in the Fall of 2025. This represents a decrease of $17,634 below last year’s allocation. The County will help administer the CDBG program for the City, which will reduce City staff time involved. County staff will be paid for these administrative services through the CDBG program funds allocated to the City. Pursuant to the Cooperation Agreement between the County and the City (Attachment 1), 13% of the total available CDBG program funds, or $8,353, will be deducted by the County to meet its obligations under the terms of the agreement for administrative costs. The City will absorb any administrative costs associated with administering CDBG funds to provide the greatest program benefits with this funding.
BACKGROUND:
The City Council approved a Cooperation Agreement with the County on June 16, 2023, for the joint participation in the CDBG Program for Fiscal Years 2024 through 2026 (Attachment 1). The City, as a participant in the Housing and Urban Development (HUD) designated Urban County program, receives an annual formula-based allocation of CDBG funds. These funds are available for a variety of Community Development activities as long as the activities meet at least one of three national objectives, including:
1. Benefit low- and moderate-income persons;
2. Aid in the prevention or elimination of slums or blight; or
3. Address urgent community development needs that pose a serious or immediate threat to public health or welfare.
The County released a Notice of Funding Availability on September 3, 2024, and notified the public that the County and participating cities would accept applications for funding until October 6, 2024. 5 Cities Homeless Coalition (5CHC) was the only organization that submitted an application requesting funding from the City’s allocation of CDBG funds (Attachment 2). The request is described in greater detail below.
Item 11.a.
City Council
Preliminary Approval of Community Development Block Grant Projects for Year 2025
November 26, 2024
If the City Council is supportive of staff’s preliminary recommendations, they will be sent to the County for review to ensure eligibility for CDBG program funding. The County’s Homeless Services Oversight Council will review applications requesting funding from the Public Services category in January 2025. The City will be informed of the outcome of that review and it will be incorporated into staff’s final recommendation to the City Council, which is tentatively scheduled for March 2025.
ANALYSIS OF ISSUES:
Public Services
As stated in the Cooperative Agreement, only activities that can either individually or cumulatively receive more than $8,000 in CDBG funding will be considered due to the staff cost of processing such awards in compliance with federal requirements. The combination of strict CDBG regulations and reporting and availability of funding opportunities provided to non-profit organizations serving the Arroyo Grande community through the City’s Community Service Grant Program (CSGP) have resulted in very few applications requesting funding from this category.
Only one application was received requesting funding from this category for this program year. 5CHC’s application seeks funding to bolster its San Luis Obispo County Rapid ReHousing/Homeless Prevention Program. This program provides financial assistance to low-income households and individuals facing homelessness to quickly identify and resolve barriers to gaining or maintaining housing. Financial assistance includes emergency rental assistance to households that would otherwise be facing homelessness, deposit assistance, and case management. The goal of the program is to help families avoid homelessness and remain in their homes while simultaneously identifying options for secure, long-term, and stable housing that they can afford to retain.
The program objectives align with the San Luis Obispo Countywide Plan to Address Homelessness. The total amount of CDBG funds requested by 5CHC from local agencies is provided in Table 2.
Table 2: 5CHC Funding Requests by Agency
Agency Amount Requested
City of Arroyo Grande $9,600
City of Atascadero $3,600
City of Morro Bay $3,000
City of Paso Robles $17,150
City of Pismo Beach $5,000
City of San Luis Obispo $9,920
County of San Luis Obispo $13,000
Total $61,270
In previous years, the City Council has directed staff to prioritize the City’s available public service allocation of CDBG funding to support organizations and programs for homeless

services. The request from 5CHC aligns with the San Luis Obispo Countywide Plan to Address Homelessness, and therefore, staff recommends funding 5CHC’s request of 2025 funds for $9,600 to support its services for individuals facing homelessness.
Public Facilities
As no additional requests for other project categories were received, staff recommends allocating the remaining available funding from CDBG allocation to the Public Facilities category for the Curb Ramp and Sidewalk Improvement project. The total funding recommendation is $46,302, which is the remaining funding available after fulfilling the request from 5CHC and the County Administration required by the Cooperative Agreement. The project will improve curb ramps to ADA standards adjacent to streets being paved in conjunction with the annual Pavement Management Program. The use of CDBG funding furthers the objectives of the federal program, eliminating blight and addressing urgent community needs, while also allowing for the most efficient use of City’s Pavement Management Program budget.
The project manager of the Pavement Management Program will also administer and perform the required reporting for CDBG funds, which allows the City’s portion of the administrative funds to increase the funding for the Public Facilities category. This is consistent with the use of 2024 CDBG funds.
Administration
Administration funds are limited to a 20% cap of the total CDBG funding available.
Pursuant to the Cooperation Agreement between the County and the City, 13% of the total available CDBG funds, or $8,353, will be deducted by the County to meet its obligations under the terms of the agreement for administrative costs. The remaining $4,498 from this category, is recommended to be allocated to the Curb and Ramp and Sidewalk Improvement Project.
ALTERNATIVES:
The following alternatives are provided for the Council’s consideration:
1. Approve preliminary funding for the CDBG programs for the Year 2025, as proposed in Table 1;
2. Modify and approve preliminary funding for the CDBG programs for the Year 2025; or
3. Provide other direction to staff.
ADVANTAGES:
The recommended 2025 CDBG allocations fund important City priorities and are consistent with the Cooperation Agreement between the County and City. The City’s Community Service Grant Program provides an additional funding opportunity, separate from CDBG, for local public service programs that address unmet needs in the community.
Item 11.a.

November 26, 2024
DISADVANTAGES:
There are no disadvantages identified at this time.
ENVIRONMENTAL REVIEW:
The preliminary approval of allocations from the 2025 CDBG program is exempt from CEQA on the basis that it can be seen with certainty that there is no possibility that the activity in question may have a significant effect on the environment. (State CEQA Guidelines, § 15061, subd. (b)(3).) The allocation of funding itself will have no effect on the environment and environmental review will be conducted for each of the projects funding through this program, if necessary.

B. Applicant Capacity
Please provide the following information.
B.1. Describe the organization’s history of receiving and managing grants from County/State/Federal sources.
Currently 5CHC is contracted through 44 local, federal and state grants to provide nearly $7 million in services. Through multiple grant monitoring activities to review 5CHC program and expenditure compliance for all local, state and federal grants, 5CHC has consistently received high praise for program quality and outcomes; reporting; compliance; and timeliness; and has never received a significant finding in an audit. Through CARES Act CV funds, 5CHC expended more than $5 Million in services and facility development since 2021, including subcontracting with multiple other providers and ensuring their compliance. 5CHC is timely in providing required reports and its billing process, meeting all required expenditure deadlines. 5CHC's outcomes consistently exceed agreed upon program metrics.
B.2. Describe how the organization participates in HMIS, Coordinated Entry, and the San Luis Obispo County Continuum of Care.
5CHC has participated in HMIS since 2014 and has staff dedicated to this fulfill this activity in addition to program staff.
In the past year more than 5 of the Coalition’s staff have worked with the County to assess and invest in a new HMIS system, including the on-going HSOC Data Workgroup. 5CHC Executive Director is a member of the HMIS Project Steering Committee. The agency’s Executive Director is currently an active member of HSOC, the Continuum of Care oversite body. 5CHC staff regularly participate in all standing committees and work groups. 5CHC is an engaged HSOC member, far exceeding the meeting attendance threshold of the HSOC bylaws, for both committee and full HSOC meetings. Historically 5CHC’s Executive Director volunteered to serve as chair of both the Data/Finance and Service Coordination committees, and volunteered on the steering committee for the County's Homeless Services Strategic Plan.
Beginning in 2019 5CHC joined with CAPSLO to participate in Coordinated Entry as a key intake partner. Annually 5CHC has far exceeded the number of CE's completed per contract requirements. 5CHC staff are among the most active members of the HSOC Coordinated Entry Advisory Committee, and the various workgroups addressing Coordinated Entry reform efforts. 5Cities Homeless Coalition has been a regional lead in every Point in Time Count conducted in the county since 2013, helping to both plan for the count as well as ensure effective regional volunteer recruitment and implementation. In each count, 5CHC has dedicated 10 or more staff members to assist in the count. Recently 5Cities Homeless Coalition, working with the CoC, has re-initiated a Transitional-Age Youth Advisory Board. The Youth Board held its inaugural meeting, under 5CHC’s leadership, in September. The group is working to define it’s role, processes for YAB participation and membership, work plan topics and calendar, with the intent of presenting some recommendations to HSOC in the Spring of 2025.
B.3. Briefly describe your organization’s auditing requirements, including those for the proposed project.
As outlined in 2 CFR § 200.500 and 24 CFR § 5.801
5CHC complies with all applicable federal laws, statutes, and regulations including the uniform financial reporting standards (24 CFR § 5.801) and the Uniform Administrative Requirements, Cost Principles, and Audit Requirements for Federal Awards (2 CFR Part 200). 5CHC annually engages multiple monitoring reviews for various government contracts. 5CHC has never received a significant finding in any monitoring review. 5CHC also contracts for an independent audit annually. For the past two years, since 2021-22 (due to increased federally sourced income) 5CHC has contracted for a
Printed By: Nathan Lenski on 10/9/2024 5 of 16
more rigorous “Single Audit”. 5CHC's Single Audit for 2022-23 is attached; as in the prior year, there were no significant findings by the auditor. 5CHC has engaged a local accounting firm, Glenn-Burdette, to undertake an audit for our most recent fiscal year 2023-24. This audit is expected to be completed by February 2025.
B.3.a. Please upload the following documentation:
Attachment D - Most Recent Audit *Required

B.4. Describe the organization’s experience delivering related programs/projects.
Through three interim housing navigation centers and one drop-in access service center, 5Cities Homeless Coalition (5CHC) assists people experiencing homelessness and those at risk of homelessness to obtain and retain housing by offering a spectrum of wrap-around supportive services including coordinated entry and diversion (including funding for immediate needs and relocation); street outreach; emergency shelter and interim housing; and housing stabilization services to obtain or retain housing (including application fees, deposit, rent, past rent, utility assistance and case management). 5Cities Homeless Coalition began offering services in 2012, initially at a single office location. Since that time, 5CHC has expanded with a multi-service access center and three navigation centers. 5CHC’s programs have expanded in partnership with our community to include a comprehensive array of services to meet the needs of the continuum. 5CHC has built its program looking at best practices from multiple providers; including a special focus of hiring those with lived experience as homeless and/or incarcerated. 5CHC endeavors to build trust, develop a sense of community, and respect. We serve as a client advocate, reducing barriers to services, follow evidence based-models of care, motivational interviewing. See 5CHC's year-end service report (2023-24), and examples of recently submitted program reports (by funding source) in the supplemental documents.
B.5. How will you document and maintain income status or presumed benefit status of each beneficiary in compliance with regulations?
5CHC has several methods for verifying income. Initial steps include self-certification of income by the client during intake assessment. This is followed by documentation collection, in which clients provide proof of income (e.g. employment pay stubs, Cash-Aid report, child support, SSA Benefits award letter, etc.). If a client is working a cash-only job, we allow them to submit an employment verification form signed by their employer with appropriate contact information. Once documents are collected, case managers complete the Income Calculation sheet which calculates gross income for the household; calculations are then approved by the program supervisor. Annual gross income is used to determine AMI level based on household size. 5CHC understands documentation collection may be a barrier to some households and assists in whatever ways possible to obtain necessary documentation. Those verified to be currently homeless with no income documentation are presumed to be low-income. Re-determination for program eligibility occurs every 3 months for homelessness prevention clients and annualLY for rapid re-housing clients.
B.6. Briefly describe your agency’s record keeping system with relevance to the proposed project.
In keeping with our policies and procedures for this program, all client files are compiled and maintained according to a detailed program activity checklist, utilizing standard forms for all services. Included in this are reference notes for any required periodic updates or re-certifications. All applicable information is entered in HMIS at program entry, exit, and as appropriate for the project. 5CHC has staff dedicated to reviewing all client files regularly for accuracy and completeness. All payment requests include a detail of the client info, activity, funding source, and purpose. These requests for financial assistance become part of the client file and are cross referenced for appropriate documentation in the invoicing process. 5CHC also maintains a client walk-in and call log at our Access Center, noting the purpose of the call/visit. This is updated daily and is maintained by 5CHC’s Coordinated Entry, Resource and Referral Specialists. Data from this log is often used to cross-referenceprior contact with an individual who was not previously entered into a
Printed By: Nathan Lenski on 10/9/2024 6 of 16
project in HMIS by 5CHC. All files are maintained electronically on 5CHC’s secure server, which is securely backed up daily off-site.
B.7. Identify all budgeted funds for project related costs. Include leveraged funding to exhibit financial sustainability of the project beyond the grant term if awarded.
It should be noted that the sustainability of this program is wholly determined by funding levels. As the majority of fund are spent on direct financial assistance, averaging approximately $3,000 per household, the success of the program and its future sustainability, are dependent on funding support for which there are limited sources. Sources: CDBG, HOME, and CalAIM (HHIP 3). Additionally in-kind matching funds will be provided through case management services by Consortium members. The impact of CalAIM’s soon to roll-out “Transitional Rent” Community Support is not yet clear, as eligibility and guidelines are yet to be finalized.
B.8. Does your organization comply with the Generally Accepted Accounting Principles? As outlined in 2 CFR § 200
Yes

5CHC seeks to continue its highly successful Homeless Prevention program to help families at-risk of homeless remain in their home, with an anticipated 165 households receiving assistance. 5CHC's track record has demonstrated that less than 2% of those served in the prior 24 months have fallen into homelessness after receiving assistance.

C.5. What is the level of need for this activity within SLO County? Please include data to support your answer.
Printed By: Nathan Lenski on 10/9/2024 8 of 16
It is abundantly documented that stable housing, health and self-sufficiency are the keys to addressing the challenges of homelessness. 5CHC is a community leader in providing these services to residents of San Luis Obispo County who are experiencing homelessness or who are at-risk; however, we are seeing an alarming spike in requests for assistance. According to a 2022 data analysis by Porch, an online home improvement and home-buying advice website, the San Luis Obispo area is the now second least affordable small metro area in the entire United States. It is estimated that, just since the on-set of COVID, that area rental rates have increased more than 30%. The high cost of housing here in San Luis Obispo County is approximately 53% higher than the national average, according to Zillow with the median rental rate having increased $400 One of the six policy recommendations made in the UCSF study, California Statewide Study of People Experiencing Homelessness, is to “expand targeted homelessness prevention (e.g., financial support, legal assistance) at service settings (e.g., social service agencies, healthcare settings, domestic violence services, community organizations) for both leaseholders and non-lease holders. Expand prevention and transition services at institutional exits (jails, prisons). Expand and strengthen eviction protections.” More than 80% of participants in this study, who were experiencing homelessness, believed receiving a one-time payment of $5,000- $10,000 would have prevented their homelessness. Those experiencing homelessness who lack rental history, have poor credit, lower income, or criminal history are especially challenged in the current housing market. 5CHC has utilized landlord incentives in prior projects and it has proved to be a vital component to secure housing for this population. 5CHC has assisted 77 individuals re-gain housing, who would not have otherwise been able to secure housing, with the landlord incentive program. Beyond assisting with rental assistance to prevent eviction, 5CHC also puts considerable resources towards utility assistance, car repairs, food assistance, etc. that are often symptomatic of growing financial instability. Without early intervention these issues can easily compound and lead to increased housing instability and risk of homelessness. For the current year these requests have skyrockets, as several utility assistance programs were cut (both federally and by the State). In fiscal year 2023-24, 5CHC invested more than $500,000 in direct financial assistance, plus case management services, to help 479 residents (206 households) throughout San Luis Obispo County to keep their home and not fall into homelessness (see 5CHC’s year-end report fy 23-24). The average investment per household is less than $2,800. In tracking the outcomes of this program, less than 2% of those served in the last 24 months have fallen into homelessness. 5CHC attempted to include multiple hyperlinks in this response to provide requested data. These hyperlinks are available upon request.
C.5.a. Please upload the following documentation:
Attachment F – Timeline: Attach a timeline for key steps of project implementation. *Required **No files uploaded
C.6. Is this effort new, continuing, or expanding? Please describe.
While this is a continuing program, 5CHC is seeking increased support. For the current fiscal year (24-25) funding for homeless prevention services was reduced by more than $200,000. This equates to approximately a reduction in 5CHC’s ability to assist approximately 75 families.
C.7. Describe how the project will align with a (or multiple) Line(s) of Effort to support the San Luis Obispo Countywide Plan to Address Homelessness (2022-2027).
The proposed project is directly aligned with Line of Effort 2 and Line of Effort 3 in the plan. Line of Effort 2: Focus efforts to reduce or eliminate the barriers to housing stability for those experiencing homelessness or at risk of homelessness, including prevention, diversion, supportive services, and housing navigation efforts. In particular this program addresses Line of Effort 2.D. which calls for preventing “homelessness through expanded diversion efforts (also known as housing problem solving or family reunification) and homeless prevention capacity.” In order to stem the flow of those falling into homelessness in our county, and reach the County’s goal of reducing homelessness by 50%, additional resources are necessary to ensure fewer people enter the homeless services system. Homeless

prevention is one of the most cost-effective strategies to reduce the incidence of homelessness in a community.
According to the 2023 study by Notre Dame University’s Wilson Sheehan Lab for Economic Opportunities (LEO), in addition to helping individuals and families maintain their housing, the LEO study suggests this community-wide prevention program is cost-effective and yields benefits to the broader community. Researchers estimated that the Homelessness Prevention System produces $2.47 in estimated benefits for every $1 dollar spent on emergency financial assistance. 5CHC attempted to include multiple hyperlinks in this response to provide requested data. These hyperlinks are available upon request.

C.9. How does your program/service complement and collaborate with existing efforts in the County? Describe how the program/project will increase capacity of services/housing for persons experiencing homelessness and at-risk persons in the County.
5CHC Homeless Services program is integrated in the local Continuum of Care (CoC), focusing on collaboration and strategic action. Homeless Prevention strategies are one of the initial efforts provided, throughout the compendium of services. 5CHC receives referrals from agencies across the service continuum, not solely those who provide Coordinated Entry assessments. In an effort to build core competencies of service providers within the CoC, 5CHC collaborates with area partners on evidence-based trainings (Mental Health First Aid, Trauma-Informed Care, Motivational Interviewing, etc.) 5CHC also has a program of providing staff trainings monthly with other service professionals and partner agencies. 5CHC seeks to streamline services through collaborative work with service providers throughout the County. By coordinating efforts and providing consistent services throughout the County, 5CHC ensures the ability to maximize resources and prevent duplication of services and benefits.
C.10. Describe any consultation with local jurisdictions to gain support for the project. Describe any support you have from local jurisdictions.

Please describe your organization’s client application, intake, and preliminary assessment process. 5CHC is a member of the Coordinated Entry collaborative, a system utilized by Homeless Service Providers throughout the County that provides a standardized intake assessment and referrals to ensure a more consistent and streamlined experience for those seeking services. During this initial intake, clients complete a comprehensive needs assessment, identify barriers to employment or housing, and develop an immediate action plan. Additionally, this assessment provides an opportunity to identify what services or resources a client is already connected to in an effort to reduce duplication of services. Clients are screened for homeless status (homeless certification forms) and income eligibility.

Assistance will be provided to benefit a clientele who are generally presumed by HUD to be principally L/M income persons - those who are homeless. This population is among those who are currently presumed by HUD to be made up principally of L/M income persons: Reference: §570.208(a)(2)(i)(A) Additionally, as some assistance will be provided to those of imminent threat of homelessness, 5CHC's program additionally requires information on family size and income so that it is evident that at least 51% of the clientele are persons whose family income does not exceed the L/M income limit. Reference: §570.208(a)(2)(i)(B) and (C) D.3.h. Will the services offered by your organization increase or expand as a result of CDBG assistance? Yes
Explain how your services will increase or expand as a result of CDBG assistance:
While this is a continuing program, 5CHC is seeking increased support. For the current fiscal year (24-25) funding for homeless prevention services was reduced by more than $200,000. This equates to approximately a reduction in 5CHC’s ability to assist approximately 75 families.
D.3.i. Describe how the project will directly benefit the populations identified.
Funding will be used to provide short-term rental assistance, coupled with supportive services, to enable low-income families to remain in their home and not fall into homelessness. 5CHC has documented that less than 2% of those served in the last 24 months in this program have fallen into homelessness.
