MEMORANDUM
TO: City Council
FROM: Nicole Valentine, Director of Administrative Services BY: Megan Schotborgh, Accounting Manager
SUBJECT: Statement of Investment Deposits for April 2025 DATE: June 10, 2025
RECOMMENDATION:
Receive and file the attached report listing investment deposits of the City of Arroyo Grande as of April 30, 2025, as required by Government Code Section 53646(b).
IMPACT ON FINANCIAL AND PERSONNEL RESOURCES:
There is no funding impact on the City related to these reports. However, the City does receive interest revenue based on the interest rate of the investments. Little to no future staff time is projected.
BACKGROUND:
The Administrative Services department has historically submitted to the City Council a monthly report providing the following information:
1. Type of investment.
2. Financial institution (bank, savings and loan, broker, etc.).
3. Date of maturity.
4. Principal amount.
5. Rate of interest.
6. Current market value for all securities having a maturity of more than 12 months.
7. Relationship of the monthly report to the annual statement of investment policy.
ANALYSIS OF ISSUES:
This report represents the City’s investments as of April 30, 2025, and includes all investments managed by the City. As of April 30, 2025, the investment portfolio complied with all State laws and the City’s investment policy.
Item 9.b.
City Council
Statement of Investment Deposits for April 2025
June 10, 2025
ALTERNATIVES:
The following alternatives are provided for the Council’s consideration:
1. Approve staff’s recommendation to receive and file the attached report listing the investment deposits;
2. Do not approve staff’s recommendation; or
3. Provide other direction to staff.
ADVANTAGES:
Safety of principal is the foremost objective of the City. Investments are undertaken in a manner that seeks to ensure the preservation of capital in the overall portfolio.
DISADVANTAGES:
Some level of risk is present in any investment transaction. Losses could be incurred due to market price changes, technical cash flow complications such as the need to withdraw a non-negotiable Time Certificate of Deposit early, or even the default of an issuer. To minimize such risks, diversification of the investment portfolio by institution and by investment instruments are being used as much as is practical and prudent.

MEMORANDUM
TO: City Council
FROM: Ashley Garcia, Human Resources Officer
Nicole Valentine, Director of Administrative Services
SUBJECT: Resolutions Establishing Salaries and Benefits for Management and Part-Time Employees, Approval of the Updated Citywide Combined Salary Schedule, and Job Descriptions for Newly Budgeted Positions DATE: June 10, 2025
RECOMMENDATION:
1) Adopt a Resolution updating compensation for designated unrepresented management and executive employee classifications for Fiscal Years 2025-26 and 2026- 27;
2) Adopt a Resolution modifying pay rates for unrepresented part-time employees; 3) Approve the updated Citywide Combined Salary Schedule; 4) Approve job descriptions for newly budgeted positions; and 5) Find that approval of the Resolutions are not a project subject to the California Environmental Quality Act (“CEQA”) because it has no potential to result in either a direct, or reasonably foreseeable indirect, physical change in the environment. (State CEQA Guidelines, §§ 15060, subd. (b)(2)-(3), 15378).
IMPACT ON FINANCIAL AND PERSONNEL RESOURCES:
The recommended adjustments to salaries and benefits for Management and nonrepresented full-time employees are incorporated in Exhibit A of the Management Resolution (Attachment 1) and are projected to cost $216,300 in FY 2025-26 and $223,100 in FY 2026-27. The preliminary budget includes appropriations to address these adjustments.
Minimal future staff time is projected to implement cost-of-living adjustments and other modifications contained in the proposed resolution.
BACKGROUND:
The City of Arroyo Grande has 80 budgeted full-time positions and 8.3 budgeted full-time equivalent part-time positions. Most full-time employees are represented by a bargaining unit (union) or are non-represented Management employees. Part-time employees are also unrepresented. Adjustments to wages and benefits for non-represented
Item 9.d.
City Council
Resolutions Establishing Salaries and Benefits for Management and Part-Time Employees, Approval of the Updated Citywide Combined Salary Schedule, and Job Descriptions for Newly Budgeted Positions
June 10, 2025
Unrepresented management employees do not negotiate in the same manner as employees represented by a bargaining unit.
The City’s management and non-represented full-time employees’ salaries and benefits are defined by Resolution. The current Resolution covers FY 2023-25, ending June 30, 2025. The proposed Resolution, provided as Attachment 1, will reflect the salary and benefits for the management and non-represented full-time employees through June 30, 2027 (FY 2025-27). The salary adjustments as proposed are consistent with those approved for other employee groups. The Resolution impacts 23 currently funded positions in the Management group.
The City is required to post a Citywide combined salary schedule for compliance with CalPERs regulations.
ANALYSIS OF ISSUES:
The City’s current salary and classification system strives to accomplish the following goals:
Ensure that the City has the ability to attract and retain well-qualified personnel for all job classifications;
Ensure that the City’s compensation practices are competitive with those of comparable employers;
Provide defensibility to City salary ranges based on the pay practices of similar employers; and
Ensure pay consistency and equity among related classes based on the duties and responsibilities assumed.
The major components of the proposed Resolution and clean-up language are detailed below:
1. Term: a two-year term from July 1, 2025, through June 30, 2027.
2. Salary Increase: Effective July 4, 2025, classifications covered by this Resolution shall receive a cost-of-living salary range adjustment of 3.5%; effective July 3, 2026, a 3.5% cost-of-living salary range adjustment, equivalent to the negotiated increases for the City’s other bargaining units.
3. Cafeteria Plan Contribution: The City’s flex dollar allowance for employees covered by this Resolution will align with the greatest amount provided to the City’s other bargaining units. In the event a subordinate bargaining unit negotiates a higher flex dollar allowance, employees covered by this Resolution shall receive at least that amount. A cap was also added to the opt-out amount for employees who decline health benefits.
4. Deferred Compensation: The City will provide an annual contribution of $3,000 annually for executive team classifications and $1,500 annually for nonrepresented management classifications, with a match requirement. Upon
Item 9.d.

June 10, 2025
successful completion of 10 years of service to the City, members of the management group are eligible for an additional $500 annual employer contribution.
5. Remove front-load of the annual leave bank and start accruing day 1 for easier payroll implementation.
6. Change salary schedule to five steps rather than low-medium-high for clarity upon hire and movement within the range for merit increases.
7. Clarify that employees who are promoted or reclassified into a management position will not carry over a balance of compensatory time hours earned.
8. Add clarifying language about retiree health contribution for retirees who continue to participate in CalPERS health insurance upon retirement.
9. Update bereavement leave section to include reproductive loss to comply with state law.
10.Update outdated position titles, specifically titles containing the term “secretary” (Administrative Secretary, Executive Secretary) to Administrative Assistant and Executive Assistant and Accounting Manager to Finance Manager to modernize and adequately represent the professional and collaborative roles.
11.Designate Fair Labor Standards Act status for affected classifications.
The most current Citywide Combined Salary Schedule was adopted June 25, 20241. For updates to the Citywide Combined Salary Schedule for FY 2025-26, salary ranges reflect agreed-upon cost-of-living adjustments with the Service Employees International Union (SEIU) and Police Officers’ Association (POA). Pursuant to the terms of the Joint Exercise of Powers Agreement that created the FCFA, all FCFA employees are employees of the City of Arroyo Grande, so it also includes agreed-upon adjustments for the International Association of Firefighters (IAFF) and FCFA Management.
Staff recommends increasing part-time pay rates by the same percentage as full-time pay rates for FY 2025-26 in order to minimize compaction and keep salaries for part-time positions competitive. Salary and other compensation adjustments will become effective on July 4, 2025, which is the first day of the first pay period of the new fiscal year.
As part of the preliminary budget, reclassifications were proposed for the Police Department Support Services Division and Public Works Engineering Division. Job descriptions for Records and Property Supervisor and Engineering Technician are provided for approval.
ALTERNATIVES:
The following alternatives are provided for the Council’s consideration:
1. Adopt the Resolutions and Job Descriptions as proposed;

Item 9.d.
City Council
Resolutions Establishing Salaries and Benefits for Management and Part-Time Employees, Approval of the Updated Citywide Combined Salary Schedule, and Job Descriptions for Newly Budgeted Positions
June 10, 2025
2. Amend and adopt the Resolutions and Job Descriptions;
3. Do not adopt the Resolutions; or
4. Provide other direction to staff.
ADVANTAGES:
Adopting the proposed Resolutions will provide employee salaries and benefits that are compliant with current laws and contracts, ensure consistent and fair compensation, and achieve the City’s goals as outlined above. Adjusting employee salaries and benefits for the management group proportionally with the City’s other bargaining units addresses internal compaction challenges and keeps salaries competitive in the local market compared with similar cities for retention purposes. Posting a citywide combined salary schedule is a CalPERS requirement. Adopting job descriptions for proposed reclassifications clarifies expectations when selecting individuals to fill the roles. In total, this item allows for the City to sustain its workforce, meet community needs, and uphold service standards.
DISADVANTAGES:
The recommendation will increase costs to future budgets.
ENVIRONMENTAL REVIEW:

MEMORANDUM
TO: City Council
FROM: Bill Robeson, Assistant City Manager/Director of Public Works BY: Shannon Sweeney, City Engineer
SUBJECT: License Agreement with Papich Construction
DATE: June 10, 2025
RECOMMENDATION:
1) Authorize the City Manager to execute a license agreement for the use of City property at 400 W. Branch for construction staging with Papich Construction Company, Inc. (“Papich”), subject to any minor, technical, or non-substantive changes as approved by the City Manager in consultation with the City Attorney; and 2) Find the action exempt from CEQA under the Class 4 exemption which applies to minor public or private alterations in the condition of land.
IMPACT ON FINANCIAL AND PERSONNEL RESOURCES:
Papich has requested that the City enter into a license agreement to allow Papich to utilize the staging area - a portion of the City’s property identified by approximately 1 acre of APN 007-011-056, west of the Woman’s Club, as shown in Figure 1, at a rental rate of $1,500.00/month, pro-rated.
Item 9.e.
City Council
License Agreement with Papich Construction
June 10, 2025
Figure 1: 400 West Branch Street Staging Area
BACKGROUND:
On October 22, 20241, City Council approved the award of a contract to Papich for the construction of the 2024 Streets Repairs Project. During construction, the City authorized the use of a portion of 400 W. Branch for construction staging, which allowed greater efficiency in project completion due to the proximity of the staging site to the location of construction. Caltrans separately hired Papich to construct improvements on and adjacent to Highway 101, from Los Berros Road in Nipomo to Hinds Road in Pismo Beach. Papich has requested to license the use of a portion of Assessor’s Parcel Number 007-011-056 for staging of this upcoming project for approximately one year (through April, 2026).
ANALYSIS OF ISSUES:
The Contractor was selected by Caltrans to construct improvements on and adjacent to Highway 101, from Los Berros Road in Nipomo to Hinds Road in Pismo Beach; and has requested to continue utilizing the staging area by renting a portion of it because its size and location are ideal for their needs. The proposed license agreement has an expiration date of April 30, 2026, or earlier upon 21-day written notice by either party. The rental rate to the City is $1,500.00 per month, prorated.
The current Traffic Way Bridge Replacement Project will not use this location for staging or storage. This license agreement with Papich would not impact upcoming projects because the next projects, 2025 Street Repairs and Halcyon Complete Streets, will not start construction until 2026. There is also additional acreage/area for staging, and if more staging area is needed for either City project, this agreement can be terminated with 21 days’ notice.

Item 9.e.
City Council
License Agreement with Papich Construction
June 10, 2025
The City has leased this property in the past. In 2007, PG&E leased the property as a park and ride lot for up to 400 cars including shuttlebus and night lighting for two years.
PG&E paid a monthly rent of $5,000. The staff report associated with approval of the lease agreement stated that justification of this rental fee was to “offset leasing and related traffic impacts that the City may incur during the temporary park and ride peak use.” The recommended monthly rent of $1,500.00 per month for use of this area for construction staging was negotiated with the contractor based, in part, on the previous rental rate and usage, and considering the cost that Papich is paying to rent a staging area in an adjacent jurisdiction.
Staff have determined that this request to authorize a license agreement to extend Papich’s ability to continue staging is reasonable:
There is a defined time frame/expiration of April 30, 2026, for the license agreement.
A 21-day written notice by either party can terminate the license. The size of the staging area is defined at approximately 1 acre of the overall 4.25- acre site.
There are no anticipated impacts to other City construction projects during this time.
ALTERNATIVES:
The following alternatives are provided for the Council's consideration:
1. Approve the license agreement;
2. Do not approve the license agreement; or
3. Provide other direction to staff.
ADVANTAGES:
Approving this license agreement provides a mechanism to fill a need of Papich, a local contractor, and for the City to receive license revenue for the property that would otherwise be unused during this time. The license has no impact on future construction projects.
DISADVANTAGES:
None identified.
ENVIRONMENTAL REVIEW:
Approving this license agreement is categorically exempt from the California Environmental Quality Act (“CEQA”) under the Class 4 exemption, which applies to minor public or private alterations in the condition of land, water, and/or vegetation where the project does not involve removal of healthy, mature, scenic trees except for forestry and agricultural purposes, and where none of the exceptions to the Class 4 exemption set forth in State CEQA Guidelines section 15300.2 apply. (State CEQA Guidelines, § 15304.)

MEMORANDUM
TO: City Council
FROM: Brian Pedrotti, Director of Community Development Scott Hallett, Chief, Five Cities Fire Authority
SUBJECT: Amendments to Title 15 of the Arroyo Grande Municipal Code Regarding the Updated State Fire Hazard Severity Zone Maps DATE: June 10, 2025
RECOMMENDATION:
1) Adopt an Ordinance adding Chapter 15.15 to Title 15 of the Arroyo Grande Municipal Code designating City of Arroyo Grande Local Responsibility Area Refined Fire Hazard Severity Zone; and
2) Find that the Ordinance is exempt from the California Environmental Quality Act (CEQA) because it will not result in a direct or reasonably foreseeable indirect physical change in the environment. (State CEQA Guidelines section 15060, subd. (c)(2); 15061(b)(3)).
IMPACT ON FINANCIAL AND PERSONNEL RESOURCES:
There is no direct fiscal impact associated with the adoption of this ordinance to adopt the Fire Hazard Severity Zone (FHSZ) maps.
BACKGROUND AND ANALYSIS:
The Ordinance adopts the Local Responsibility Area (LRA) Refined Fire Hazard Severity Zone Maps consistent with State Law, which requires that local governments are required to formally adopt these maps by ordinance within 120 days of receipt of the map (Government Code Section 51179(a)). The purpose of these maps is to identify areas at greater wildfire risk and ensure local jurisdictions implement appropriate building standards, defensible space requirements, and fire mitigation measures.
Pursuant to Government Code sections 36934 and 36937, ordinances are “introduced” by first reading at a City Council meeting, “passed” (i.e., approved) at a later City Council meeting by conducting a second reading, and then take effect 30 days after passage.
At a public hearing on May 27, 20251, the City Council introduced the Ordinance as proposed. The Ordinance amendments are now ready for adoption. The Ordinance amendments will become effective thirty (30) days after adoption.

2. Modify the Ordinance with amendments and direct staff to return at a future public hearing to introduce the modified amendments; or
3. Provide other direction to staff.
ADVANTAGES:
Adopting the LRA Refined FHSZ Maps will bring the City of Arroyo Grande’s Municipal Code into compliance with Government Code Section 51178, which mandates Cal Fire to periodically review and revise FHSZ maps to maintain accuracy and relevance.
Because the LRA Maps default each parcel to the higher severity zone designation, this will provide additional fire protection over time by hardening more City structures against future urban wildfires. Future construction permits in certain zones may require additional fire safety standards, which would add a public benefit for future wildfire events and protection for property owners.
DISADVANTAGES:
Adopting the LRA Refined FHSZ Maps will default each parcel in the City to the higher severity designation, which would have the effect of requiring future construction permits in certain zones to have additional fire safety standards, which would result in additional construction costs to property owners.
ENVIRONMENTAL REVIEW:
The proposed Ordinance is exempt from the California Environmental Quality Act (“CEQA”) pursuant to State CEQA Guidelines sections 15060(c)(2) and 15061(b)(3) because it will not result in a direct or reasonably foreseeable physical change in the environment; and the activity is covered by the general rule that CEQA applies only to projects which have the potential for causing a significant effect on the environment. The code amendments would only adopt the State’s FHSZ maps, which is not an authorization for any development or construction. Thus, it can be seen with certainty that there is no possibility that the activity may have a significant effect on the environment, the activity is not subject to CEQA.

OF ARROYO GRANDE ADDING CHAPTER 15.15 TO
TITLE 15 OF THE ARROYO GRANDE MUNICIPAL CODE
DESIGNATING CITY OF ARROYO GRANDE LOCAL

SEVERITY ZONES
WHEREAS, the Legislature has declared in Government Code section 51175, subdivision (a), that: fires are extremely costly, not only to property owners and residents, but also to local agencies; fires pose a serious threat to preservation of public peace, health and safety; it is necessary for cities, counties, special districts, state agencies and federal agencies to work together to bring raging fires under control; and preventative measures are needed to ensure preservation of the public peace, health and safety; and
WHEREAS, the Legislature has declared in Government Code section 51175, subdivision (b), that prevention of fires is not a municipal affair, but instead is a matter of statewide concern; and
WHEREAS, Government Code section 51175 et seq. authorizes the California Department of Forestry and Fire Protection (“CAL FIRE”) to recommend Fire Hazard Severity Zones in the City of Arroyo Grande (“City”); and WHEREAS, pursuant to Government Code section 51179, on March 24, 2025, the State Fire Marshal has published maps depicting areas designated as Moderate, High, and Very High Fire Hazard Severity Zones, has recommended that local agencies adopt these zones through local ordinance and Government Code section 51179, subdivision (a) requires the City to designate by ordinance Moderate, High, and Very High Fire Hazard Severity Zones in its jurisdiction within 120 days after receiving recommendations from CAL FIRE; and
WHEREAS, pursuant to Government Code section 51178.5, within 30 days of receiving the State Fire Marshal’s transmittal identifying Fire Hazard Severity Zones, the City of Arroyo Grande made the information, including the CAL FIRE map specific to the City of Arroyo Grande, available for public review and comment online.
WHEREAS, on May 27, 2025, the City Council held a duly noticed public hearing and introduced the Ordinance; and
WHEREAS, all legal prerequisites to the adoption of this Ordinance have occurred.

SECTION 1. Recitals. The recitals above are true and correct and are incorporated herein by reference and adopted as findings by the City Council.
ORDINANCE NO.
PAGE 2
SECTION 2. CEQA. Based on the whole record before it, pursuant to Section 15060(c)(2) of the California Environmental Quality Act (“CEQA”) Guidelines, the City Council finds that this Ordinance will not result in a direct or reasonably foreseeable indirect physical change in the environment and therefore is not subject to the CEQA.
Additionally, the Ordinance does not authorize construction, and in fact imposes greater restrictions on certain development in order to protect the public health, safety and general welfare, and therefore pursuant to CEQA Guidelines Section 15060(c)(3) the activity is not a “project” as defined in CEQA Guidelines Section 15378 because it has no potential for resulting in physical change to the environment, directly or indirectly.
SECTION 3. Designation of Fire Hazard Severity Zones. The City hereby designates the Fire Hazard Severity Zones as recommended by the California Department of Forestry and Fire Protection pursuant to Government Code section 51178. The map, entitled “City of Arroyo Grande LRA Refined FHSZ Maps” dated April 30, 2025, is hereby adopted, approved, and provided in Exhibit “A,” attached hereto and incorporated herein by reference.

SECTION 7. Severability. If any section, subsection, subdivision, sentence, clause, phrase, or portion of this Ordinance is, for any reason, held to be invalid or unconstitutional by the decision of any court of competent jurisdiction, such decision shall not affect the validity of the remaining portions of this Ordinance. The City Council hereby declares that it would have adopted this Ordinance and each section, subsection, subdivision, sentence, clause, phrase, or portion thereof irrespective of the fact that any one or more sections, subsections, subdivisions, sentences, clauses, phrases, or portions thereof be declared invalid or unconstitutional.
SECTION 8. Effective Date. This Ordinance shall take effect and be in full force and operation thirty (30) days after its final passage and adoption.

MEMORANDUM
TO: City Council
FROM: Matthew Downing, City Manager
Bill Robeson, Assistant City Manager/Public Works Director BY: Nicole Valentine, Director of Administrative Services SUBJECT: Fiscal Year 2025-27 Biennial Budget
DATE: June 10, 2025
RECOMMENDATION:
1) Adopt a Resolution adopting the Fiscal Year (FY) 2025-27 Biennial Budget and making appropriations for the amount budgeted; and
2) Determine that adopting of the Budget is not a project subject to the California Environmental Quality Act (“CEQA”) because it has no potential to result in either a direct, or reasonably foreseeable indirect, physical change in the environment. (State CEQA Guidelines, §§ 15060, subd. (c)(2)-(3), 15378.) Individual projects within the Budget may be subject to CEQA and environmental review will be conducted at the appropriate time during implementation of those projects.
IMPACT ON FINANCIAL AND PERSONNEL RESOURCES:
The proposed 2025-27 Biennial Budget recommends approximately $111.1 million in expenditures, including operating costs such as salaries, benefits, services, supplies, maintenance, debt service, and capital related items, over the next two fiscal years. The Consolidated General Fund FY 2025-26 budget recommends approximately $55.7 million and the Consolidated General Fund FY 2026-27 budget recommends approximately $55.4 million.
The budget as presented is balanced in both years using reserves, maintains adequate reserves at or above policy levels, goal of 20% with a minimum of 15%, and addresses several goals and priorities discussed previously with the City Council.
BACKGROUND:
Every two years, staff and Council prepare a Biennial Budget document, 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. Work is

now underway to finalize the upcoming biennial budget for Fiscal Years 2025-27. The anticipated 5-step process and timeline for this budget cycle are depicted in Figure 1:
Figure 1: Overview of Biennial Budget Process
On January 28, 20251, Council received an update on the General Fund Five-Year Financial Forecast. The City’s Forecast is a long-range fiscal planning tool that has served as the framework for the development of the FY 2025-27 General Fund Biennial Budget.
On December 9, 2024, an Arroyo Grande Community Priorities Survey was published.
This 4-question online survey was posted on the City website and promoted on social media channels. The survey was open for one month and closed on January 15, 2025.
The survey allowed community members to provide input regarding their thoughts on what the top priorities should be for the City over the next 2-3 years. The survey included a combination of multiple-choice and short-response questions. A summary of the

responses was presented in the February 10, 20252, Special City Council Meeting staff report.
On February 10, 2025, the City Council held a Goal Setting Workshop focused on priorities for the FY 2025-27 Budget. The Results of this Goal Setting Workshop were provided to City Council on March 11, 20253. The City Council established five (5) major City goals for staff to prioritize for the upcoming biennial budget cycle. The goals were established considering the results of the community survey and input from the public and staff. This set of priorities has been used by staff to create work plans and a proposed biennial budget. The five major goals are identified in Figure 2.
Figure 2: City Council Goals for FY 2025-27 Biennial Budget On May 13, 20254, the City Council provided direction on the 10-year Capital Improvement Program (CIP) budget, Measure E-24 Local Sales Tax Fund Expenditure Program, and Measure O-06 Local Sales Tax Fund Expenditure Program. The

prioritization and direction provided by the City Council at these previous meetings have been incorporated into the FY 2025-27 Biennial Budget.
The prioritization and direction provided by the City Council at these previous meetings have been incorporated into the FY 2025-27 Biennial Budget. The FY 2025-27 Biennial Budget was also developed with input from all City departments in a collaborative effort to provide staff’s best professional judgment regarding current and future needs of the City. On May 27, 20255, Council reviewed the Preliminary FY 2025-27 Biennial Operating Budget and provided feedback to staff in preparation for the public hearing. The presentation included discussion regarding:
Proposed Staffing Requests;
Proposed Services and Supplies Requests; and
Vehicle Replacement Requests.
The FY 2025-27 Biennial Budget, described in more detail below, will provide funding for all City services performed during the next two fiscal years. Each fund summary is provided as Attachment 1.
ANALYSIS OF ISSUES:
The FY 2025-26 and FY 2026-27 proposed budget is a balanced budget, with excess revenues and fund balance sufficient to cover recommended work plan and capital project budget expenditures.
The FY 2025-26 proposed budget includes a total of $32.1 million in revenues and $35.6 million in operating and capital budget for a net of $3.5 million more in expenditures than revenues. The operating budget is balanced, with a $2 million net operating surplus. Fund balances accumulated over time offset the additional expenditures.
The FY 2026-27 proposed budget includes a total of $33.2 million in revenues and $35.3 million in operating and capital expenditures for a net of $2 million more expenditures than revenues. The operating budget is balanced, with a $65,000 net operating surplus.
Consolidated General Fund Revenues
As shown in Chart 1, Sales and Property Taxes comprise the largest source of revenue in the General Fund, together accounting for approximately 73% of revenue in that fund.
Given this dependence on just two revenue sources, fluctuations in the amount of taxes received can have profound impacts on the City’s ability to provide services. As long as the real estate market stays reasonably strong, property taxes are a relatively stable revenue source.

Item 10.a.
City Council
Fiscal Year 2025-27 Biennial Budget
June 10, 2025
Chart 1: FY 2025-26 Consolidated General Fund Revenues - $32.1 million Overall, General Fund tax revenues have been trending upward over the past several years and are expected to increase in both years of the Biennial Budget. Based on the latest information provided by the County Auditor-Controller’s Office, property taxes are expected to increase by 4.25% in both fiscal years. This is the result of an increase in the assessed valuation of properties in Arroyo Grande and a housing market that has remained robust throughout the past year.
Sales tax receipts have remained consistent throughout the past year. As discussed during the Fiscal Outlook presentation in January, the City’s sales tax consultant projected a reduction in sales tax revenues of 0.4% in FY 2024-25 due to an anticipated minor economic slowdown. These projections reflect expected declines in categories like automobiles and transportation, building and construction, and food & drug consumer goods. The lower projections in these categories are the result of lower expected consumer demand in the short term. This budget is projecting an increase in sales tax revenues of 1% in FY 2025-26 and 2.6% in FY 2026-27, as the economy is only anticipating a minor slowdown.

The following two charts show the proposed $35.6 million Consolidated General Fund expenditure budget for FY 2025-26, both in terms of the relative size of each department as well as the total dollars budgeted for each department. As the charts show, the Capital Improvement Program is the City’s largest function, with 25% of the budget. The Police Department represents 22% of the General Fund budget. Fire services for FCFA will receive 12% of the Consolidated General Fund and Measure O-06 budget. Public Works receives 10% and Community Development will receive 6% of FY 2025-26 budget resources, respectively. The “Non-Departmental” category represents 9% of the General Fund budget and includes items that affect all departments, such as the annual payment on the City’s Unfunded Actuarial Liability (UAL), property and general liability insurance, and transfers to the Street fund.

City Council
Fiscal Year 2025-27 Biennial Budget
June 10, 2025
Adoption of the FY 2025-27 Biennial Budget is the beginning of a continuous financial management process. Ongoing monitoring efforts include:
1. Quarterly Financial Status Reports: Concise and comprehensive reports are issued by Staff to the Council and public on a quarterly basis.
2. Goal Status Reports: Staff will provide quarterly Goal Status Reports to the Council that includes progress towards completing Major City Goals and Capital Improvement Plan. These reports present updates and communications about the status of City projects, goals, and performance measures.
ALTERNATIVES:
The following alternatives are provided for the Council’s consideration:
1. Adopt a Resolution approving the FY 2025-27 Biennial Budget;
2. Amend and adopt a Resolution approving the FY 2025-27 Biennial Budget; or
3. Provide other direction to staff.
ADVANTAGES:
The recommendations in the Budget reflect revenue and expenditure strategies that will accomplish the following:
Maintain and, in certain cases, increase key service levels; Maintain a substantial investment in improvements to the City’s infrastructure and facilities;
Address operational sustainability concerns; and
Maintain reserves at or above the City’s policy levels.
DISADVANTAGES:
The recommendations do not fully address the long-term replacement needs of all City equipment and infrastructure. Limited staffing levels continue to be a challenge in regard to accomplishing all desired City priorities in a timely manner. Significant cost increases related to pensions and insurance are still threats that will require close monitoring. The performance of the economy in general, and the impacts of specific economic development activities will also affect the financial condition and sustainability of City operations.
ENVIRONMENTAL REVIEW:
The FY 2025-27 Biennial Budget plan is not a project subject to the California Environmental Quality Act (“CEQA”) because it has no potential to result in either a direct, or reasonably foreseeable indirect, physical change in the environment. (State CEQA Guidelines, §§ 15060, subd. (c)(2)-(3), 15378.) Individual projects within the Budget may be subject to CEQA and environmental review will be conducted at the appropriate time during implementation of those projects.

MEMORANDUM
TO: City Council
FROM: David Culver, Interim Chief of Police
BY: Jason Castillo, Administrative Sergeant
SUBJECT: Amendments to Arroyo Grande Municipal Code Sections 8.36.020 and
8.36.050 Regarding Sales to Minors and Sales and Distribution of Electronic Tobacco Products
DATE: June 10, 2025
RECOMMENDATION:
1) Introduce an Ordinance amending Section 8.36.020 and Section 8.36.050 of Title 8 of the Arroyo Grande Municipal Code relating to the sale of electronic tobacco products in Arroyo Grande; and
2) Find that the proposed ordinance is exempt from the California Environmental Quality Act (CEQA) because it will not result in a direct, or reasonably foreseeable, indirect, physical change in the environment (State CEQA Guidelines, §§ 15060, subd. (c)(2)-(3), 15378).
IMPACT ON FINANCIAL AND PERSONNEL RESOURCES:
No financial impact is projected.
BACKGROUND:
On November 26, 20191, the City Council adopted Ordinance No. 702, prohibiting all retail sales of electronic cigarette products and paraphernalia, known as “vape” products, that have not received premarket review by the Federal Drug Administration ("FDA"). The Council also adopted Ordinance No. 701 on August 27, 20192, prohibiting businesses from selling tobacco products and paraphernalia to persons under twenty-one. The Ordinances became effective thirty (30) days following adoption.
ANALYSIS OF ISSUES:
Sale of FDA Approved Products Only
The FDA requires all new tobacco products, including vapes, to undergo a process called Premarket Tobacco Product Application (PMTA) before they can be legally sold in the

Item 11.a.

June 10, 2025
United States. This process is intended to determine whether a product is appropriate for the protection of public health. However, a PMTA is not an approval or endorsement of the product’s safety. Instead, it is a regulatory hurdle that allows the FDA to evaluate whether a product should be allowed on the market under the current federal standards, which are often more lenient than what many local communities consider appropriate for the public health. Many vape products that appear on store shelves today are either still under review, have not received marketing authorization, or are being sold in violation of federal law. The PMTA process is backlogged, and enforcement is inconsistent. This creates a loophole where unapproved and potentially harmful vape products continue to be widely accessible, including to minors. Local regulation is a critical enforcement tool, because the long-term safety of these products remains unclear.
Arroyo Grande Municipal Code (AGMC) Subsection 8.36.050(b) currently allows vape products to be sold if the following criteria are met:
it is a new tobacco product;
it requires a premarket review order under 21 U.S.C. 387j, as may be amended from time to time; and
it does not have a premarket review order under 21 U.S.C. 387j(c)(1)(A)(i), as may be amended from time to time.
The removal of the above language will prevent any sale of vape or other electronic tobacco products or paraphernalia within the City limits. Staff believes completely prohibiting the sale is necessary because of the inconsistent enforcement of safety standards for these devices and products. By adopting the proposed ordinance, Arroyo Grande can take proactive steps where federal regulations have not been able to regulate effectively, and better protect our residents' health and safety, especially minors. The City’s proposed ordinance retains an existing carve-out for FDA-endorsed tobacco cessation products, or when used for other medical purposes.
Sales to Minors
California Senate Bill 1230 (SB 1230), enacted in 2024, repealed the exemption that previously allowed active-duty military personnel aged 18 to 20 to purchase tobacco products. This change aligns California law with the federal Tobacco 21 law, which has set the minimum legal age to buy tobacco at 21, without exception for military members.
Prior to SB 1230, California law permitted active-duty military members aged 18–20 to purchase tobacco. The federal Tobacco 21 law, effective since 2019, applies to all individuals regardless of military status. SB 1230 ensures consistency between state and federal laws, eliminating confusion for retailers and enforcement agencies.
AGMC Section 8.36.020 currently allows active duty military personnel aged 18-20 to purchase tobacco products. To comply with state law and protect the health of our community's youth, it is recommended that the Ordinance be amended to remove the

exemption allowing military personnel aged 18–20 to purchase tobacco products. This change will simplify enforcement within the City.
ALTERNATIVES:
The following alternatives are provided for the Council’s consideration:
1. Introduce an Ordinance amending Title 8, Chapter 36.020 Sales to Minors and Title 8, Chapter 36.050 Sale and distribution of electronic cigarettes and vaping products that require, but have not received, a Food and Drug Administration order approving their marketing;
2. Modify the Ordinance amendments and direct staff to return at a future public hearing to introduce the modified amendments; or
3. Provide other direction to staff.
ADVANTAGES:
Revisions to the AGMC will align the City with State and federal law, protect the public health, including the health of minors, and provide clarity for law enforcement.
DISADVANTAGES:
A prohibition on the retail sale of electronic cigarettes and vaping products could lead to a referendum to overturn some of the City’s local regulations. However, the City would join a number of other agencies that have taken similar action. Additionally, the Arroyo Grande Police Department has been in touch with the California Department of Justice regarding its plan to update its existing ordinance.
ENVIRONMENTAL REVIEW:
The California Environmental Quality Act (“CEQA”) does not apply to the recommended action in this report. This proposed Ordinance is not a “project” subject to the California Environmental Quality Act (“CEQA”) because it has no potential to result in a direct or indirect physical change in the environment (State CEQA Guidelines, §§ 15060 (c)(2) and (3), 15378.) The sole effect of the proposed Ordinance is to amend the Arroyo Grande Municipal Code to limit distribution of electronic cigarettes and vaping products and protect the public health.

RE: Support for Ordinance Amending AGMC 8.36.020 and 8.36.050 Regarding Sales to Minors and Electronic Smoking Devices
Dear Arroyo Grande Mayor Ray Russom and Council Members, On behalf of the San Luis Obispo County Tobacco Control Coalition, we write to express our strong support for the proposed ordinance amending Arroyo Grande Municipal Code Sections 8.36.020 and 8.36.050. We commend the Arroyo Grande Police Department and City staff for their leadership in advancing a policy that prioritizes youth health, closes enforcement loopholes, and aligns with California and federal tobacco control laws.
The proposed ordinance takes several bold and necessary steps to address ongoing gaps in the regulation of tobacco products, particularly electronic smoking devices (ESDs). These include:
• Prohibiting the sale of all ESDs, regardless of their FDA pre-market authorization status. • Raising the minimum legal sales age to 21 for all individuals, including military personnel, consistent with federal and state law.
These actions are vital. According to the 2023–2024 California Healthy Kids Survey, 21% of 11th graders in San Luis Obispo County reported having used an ESD at least once. The Coalition continues to be concerned about the addiction potential and health risks posed by these products, risks which are compounded by inconsistent FDA enforcement and aggressive industry marketing. Data from Cal Poly students indicates that some are transitioning to combustible cigarettes after likely initiating on EDSs or other flavored tobacco products.
Additionally, there is little evidence that ESDs are a safe or effective method for quitting tobacco. Instead, many users become dual users, increasing the risk of cardiovascular disease and undermining public health progress.
To further strengthen the proposed ordinance, we respectfully recommend the following:
1. Amend the ordinance to explicitly prohibit “delivery sales” of tobacco products, using language consistent with the Public Health Law Center's model ordinance: “Delivery sale” means the sale of any tobacco product... by telephone, mail, the internet, or app-based service, including delivery by licensees or third parties.
2. Rescind the provision in Section 8.36.060 that penalizes minors for possession or use of tobacco products.
Criminalizing youth for tobacco use raises serious equity concerns and may disproportionately harm those in need of support, not punishment. Tobacco control strategies are most effective when focused on retailer accountability, prevention, and treatment, not criminalization of young people.
By adopting and strengthening this ordinance, Arroyo Grande will join a growing number of jurisdictions across California leading the way to protect youth and communities from the harmful effects of tobacco.
Thank you for your commitment to public health and your continued leadership.
Sincerely,
Julia Alber & Trent Johnson
Chair and Co-Chair, San Luis Obispo County Tobacco Control Coalition
