Annuitant agrees and acknowledges that he shall not perform any services under this Agreement exceeding a total of nine hundred sixty (960) hours during any fiscal year (July 1 to June 30) inclusive of any hours worked during the same period for other CalPERS employers as a retired annuitant.

Said duty to defend, indemnify and save harmless shall include, without limitation, any tort, professional liability claim or demand or other legal action, whether groundless or otherwise, that is asserted by a third-party other than the City and arises out of an alleged act or omission occurring in the performance of Annuitant’s duties or resulting from his exercise of judgment or discretion in connection with the performance of his duties or responsibilities, unless the act or omission involved Annuitant’s criminal act, or willful or wanton misconduct. Annuitant shall promptly give written notice of any claim, threatened claim or litigation.

Any settlement or compromise of any claim must be made with prior approval of City, which approval shall not be unreasonably withheld or delayed in order for indemnification, as provided in this Section, to be available.

APPEAL ANALYSIS AND REVIEW SUBMITTED BY THE APPLICANT’S REPRESENTATIVE:
The applicant’s representative filed a written appeal, via email, Attachment B, on December 26, 2022, and the appeals fee of $500.00 was paid on December 27, 2022.
STAFF REVIEW AND RESPONSE TO THE BASIS OF APPEAL BY APPLICANT’S REPRESENTATIVE:
Applicant’s Statement: Our appeal is ONLY related to the condition of paying for the “Traffic Impact Fee”. We would like to request for the City of Arvin to waive the traffic impact fee. The reasons for our appeal are as follows:
Staff Review and Response: Acknowledged limit of appeal to the payment of Traffic Impact Fee and requesting City Council to waive the traffic impact fee.
Applicants’ Reason No. 1:
1.a We paid the building permit fee of $29,380.20 (without the traffic impact fee) at the time when the City issued us a building permit # BP21-0293 for our project on 12/2/2021.
4.A.1
Attachment: 1 CC Staff Report Vanguard Appeal PUD-SDP-2022-1100BMB_021423 (Public Hearing - Vanguard Medical Appeal)
Staff Report – Vanguard Medical Appeal 02/14/2023
1.b If there was a mistake with the building permit fee, why it took more than 10 months and after two Senior Planners left, for the City to inform us that we would need to pay for the traffic impact fee?
1.c Our understanding about the City of Arvin’s rules, all the building permit fees MUST be paid at the time when the building permit is issued.
1.d We did abide to the rules by paying the required fees at the time when the building permit was issued to us.
Staff Review and Responses to Applicants’ Reason No. 1.:
1.a: Staff has verified that the building permit fee of $29,380.20 was paid without the payment of the Traffic Impact Fee.
1.b: Staff acknowledges that there was an error in not collecting the Traffic Impact Fee at building permit issuance. Staff’s errors in not collecting or advising the applicant that the Traffic Impact Fee is required, does not waive the requirement to pay the Traffic Impact Fee. It is unknown why the communication failed and why the applicant was not informed of the requirement to pay the Traffic Impact Fee by former Staff. Staff and the Applicant’s representative have had extensive email exchange regarding the payment of the required Traffic Impact Fee.
1.c: Staff concurs and acknowledges that the City’s policy is that the impact fees are to be paid at the time of building permit issuance. Also, State Law provides for the Development Impact Fee may be paid prior to the issuance of the Certificate of Occupancy. However, it is the City’s policy to collect the impact fee at building permit issuance. As noted in response 1.b there was an error in not collecting the Traffic Impact Fee at building permit issuance.
1.d: Staff Acknowledges that the applicant did comply with the payment of fees that they were advised to pay. Also, as noted in response 1.b Staff’s error in not collecting nor advising that the Traffic Impact Fee was due DOES NOT waive the requirement to pay the Traffic Impact Fees.
Applicants’ Reason No. 2: Based on the project’s initial study, our project will not create a significant transportation impact to the area; therefore, the traffic impact fee should not be accessed.
Staff Review and Responses to Applicants’ Reason No. 2.: Staff has reviewed and reverified that the Initial Study, Section 3.4.17 Transportation, did provide a brief traffic analysis, Attachment C. The applicants’ consultants in the preparation of the CEQA Analysis, Initial Study for the project, acknowledges that with the payment of “appropriate developer impact fees” the project is not expected to result in a significant transportation impact. The conclusion in the Initial Study, Section 3.4.17 supports the need for the payment of the City’s Traffic Impact Fee. With the payment of the Traffic Impact Fee, the project would not have a significant traffic impact. Therefore, the project is subject to the payment of the Traffic Impact Fees.
4.A.1
Attachment: 1 CC Staff Report Vanguard Appeal PUD-SDP-2022-1100BMB_021423 (Public Hearing - Vanguard Medical Appeal)
Staff Report – Vanguard Medical Appeal 02/14/2023
“ Attachment C: Excerpt from Initial Study: “Impact #3.4.17a - Would the Project conflict with a program, plan, ordinance, or policy addressing the circulation system, including transit, roadway, bicycle and pedestrian facilities?
The existing roadways providing the main circulation in the vicinity of the Project include the following:
Bear Mountain Boulevard (State Route [SR] 223) is an east-west principal arterial that operates as a four-lane divided roadway through the City of Arvin and narrows to two lanes outside of Arvin. State Route (SR) 223 (Bear Mountain Boulevard) extends east from Interstate 5 (1-5) to SR 58 where it terminates. It provides access to the City of Arvin and is a truck route that connects the three primary corridors in the area, I- 5, SR 58 and SR 99.
Walnut Drive is a north-south collector with curb and gutter that exists from Sycamore Road to Nectarine Court and provides access to residential land uses in northern Arvin.
The Project proposed will construct a medical facility and general commercial businesses that will be used by current residents of Arvin. The Project is conveniently located in the City, and is intended to provide easy, close access to these businesses, which will help reduce the vehicle miles traveled (VMT) for residents to use these services. In addition, to reduce the impacts to the transportation services, the Project is required to pay appropriate developer impact fees. Therefore, the Project is not expected to result in a significant transportation impact.” (NOTE: Highlighted for emphasis by Staff identifies that the Environment Initial Study for the Vanguard Medical Center, Initial Study documents that the ‘appropriate developer impact fees” would be required.)
Applicants’ Reason No. 3: The Uniform Data System (UDS) Mapper is a publicly available mapping tool intended to help users better understand where federally funded health centers currently serve, where gaps in the safety net might exist, and which neighborhoods or regions might hold the highest priorities for health center expansion. According to the recent UDS Mapper data (2016-2020), the City of Arvin has a total population of 22,546, of which 15,605 of them are considered low income according to the federal poverty guidelines. Based on the 2021 data, the Health Center Penetration (services provided by Clinical Sierra Vista and Omni Family Health) of low-income in the City of Arvin was only 55% while the Health Center Penetration of total population only reached 38%. Our primary care (including Chiropractic & walk-ins) and after-hours services are really needed by the community of Arvin to fill the gaps in healthcare services provided by the existing health centers in the proximity area. We will open our services seven days a week: Monday to Friday – 8am to 7pm and Saturday & Sunday – 9am to 3pm. We will be partnering with other companies to bring radiology and laboratory services on site. Our goal is to bring other health services into our property and minimizing or eliminating the need for Arvin community members to travel to Bakersfield to seek for their health care needs. We want to continue maintaining our collaboration with the City of Arvin by serving the healthcare needs of its community members for many years to come.
4.A.1
Attachment: 1 CC Staff Report Vanguard Appeal PUD-SDP-2022-1100BMB_021423 (Public Hearing - Vanguard Medical Appeal)
Staff Report – Vanguard Medical Appeal 02/14/2023
Staff Review and Responses to Applicants’ Reason No. 3.: Staff does welcome the Vanguard Medical Clinic and providing needed services to the community. However, the City of Arvin does not waive impact fees for any development other that those exempted by City Policy.
Exempted from development impact fees generally include governmental facilities.
Summary and Conclusion of Appeal as Submitted by the Applicant: Staff provided a detailed response to the reasoning and justification by the applicant in the appeal requesting waiver of the Traffic Impact Fee imposed as a condition of approval as recommended by Staff and imposed as a condition of approval by the Planning Commission.
It was unfortunate that former staff did not communicate that the traffic impact fee is required per City requirements for any new development and that all the adopted impact fees were not disclosed. It was also unfortunate that the application was not processed in compliance with Title 17 Zoning Code until late in the construction of the buildings. However, these miscommunications do not waive required fees. Staff did advise the applicant’s representative of the City Council’s resolution permitting the City Manager to enter into an agreement for deferment of development impact fees. The applicant did not pursue the potential deferment agreement as disclosed by Staff.
Based upon Staff’s review and responses, Staff is recommending the City Council affirm the Planning Commission’s Conditional Approval and deny the applicant’s appeal to waive the payment of the Traffic Impact Fee.
CITY COUNCIL RECOMMENDED ACTION:
Staff recommends that the City Council open the public hearing, allow for public testimony, close the hearing, and consider adopting the following resolution:
A Resolution of the City Council of the City of Arvin to Affirm the Planning Commission’s Action and Uphold the Imposition of the Condition Requiring the Payment of the Traffic Impact Fee – PUD (SDP) 1100BMB-Vanguard per Resolution No. APC 2022-07 dated December 14, 2022.
FINANCIAL IMPACT:
The City of Arvin has established fees, referred to as Development Impact Fees, that will be imposed upon all new development within the City and imposed on the proposed project and the fee will collected at Building Permit Issuance. The fees currently collected are Police, Sewer Connection, Traffic, and Parks. The amount of fee collected vary dependent upon the type of development. The Vanguard Medical Facility development, 9,800 square feet, is under construction and the payment of the Traffic Impact Fee is calculated to be $77,165.20. The future building as shown on the Site Plan is 2,000 square feet and the Traffic Impact Fee is calculated to be $15,748.00. The waiver of the Traffic Impact Fee for this project would result in a loss of $92,913.20 in revenue to assist in payment of identified circulation and traffic control improvements. In addition, the waiver of the Traffic Impact Fee would have a negative effect to the general fund.

FLOOD PLAIN MANAGEMENT, DRAINAGE and BEST MANAGEMENT
PRACTICES:
FPM-D&BMP-1 Floodplain Management – Chapter 15.32. The project is located within FEMA FLOOD HAZARD which has a 1 percent annual chance flood shallow flooding. The project shall be required to meet the requirements of Section 15.32.170(C) and (D). Prior to the issuance of the Certificate of Occupancy by the Building Official a Flood Certification shall be provided. (Attachment 3 – Chapter 15.32 Floodplain Management)
Property is located within an AO flood zone (BFE=1'; V=2fps). This information should be included on the site plan. It currently shows on the ALTA survey. City has recently coordinated with the Department of Water Resources, and it is now understood that the proper elevation to which structures must be elevated or flood proofed is variable based on the proposed use of the building as prescribed based on the 2016 California Building Code section 1612.4. This building is classified as a being used for "healthcare facilities not having surgery or emergency treatment capabilities" and falls within "Flood Design Class 3". As such, the correct design elevation is 2 feet above the highest adiacent grade. This allows 1 foot of freeboard above the base flood elevation (also written as "BFE +1"). Alternatively, the building may also be

Attachment: Att A - APC 2022-07 Reso PDP(SDP) 2022-1100BMB- Vanguard PC Mtg 121422 (Public Hearing - Vanguard Medical Appeal) Conditions of Approval – PDP(SDP) 2022-110BMB Vanguard Medical
appropriately "floodproofed" up to the same BFE + 1 elevation in lieu of elevating the structure at the option of the developer. A revised site plan showing an appropriate raised elevation must be approved by an engineer, and shall include a statement on the plan indicating that the design complies with local ordinance 15.32 as well as applicable CBC and FEMA requirements with regard to the floodplain. If the developer chooses to floodproof the structure, the same should be included on the building plans. Regardless of the methodology employed by the developer, the applicant shall provide an elevation certificate completed by a licensed land surveyor to show that the building pad elevation is at or above the BFE. Note that the HAG must be a grade along the perimeter of the structure, and cannot be a spot elevation anywhere on the site or along the existing sidewalk or roadway.
FPM-D&BMP-2 Water Drainage - Prior to the issuance of any grading or building permits, a plan for the disposal of drainage waters originating on site and from adjacent road rights of way shall be approved by the City Engineer. Easements or grant deed shall be given to the city for drainage purposes or access thereto, as necessary. Grading and Drainage plans shall be submitted to the City Engineer for review and approval. Site drainage on to or into the public right-of-way is not permitted. On-site retention is required when the City’s storm drainage system is not available.
FPM-D&BMP-3 Dust Control plans must be provided, as required by the San Joaquin Air District.
Best Management Practices are to be implemented during site construction. The applicant shall submit final BMP program for review and approval to the City Engineer prior to site disturbance.
FPM-D&BMP-4 Developer shall comply with applicable construction storm water requirements as required by the California Water Board. A Stormwater Pollution Prevention Plan (SWPPP) may be required. Developer should retain the services of a Qualified SWPPP Developer (QSD) to make such determinations. Developer must provide a Board-approved plan and a Water Discharger Identification (WDID) number (or approved erosivity waver) to the City prior to commencing construction.
FPM-D&BMP-5. Developer must apply for and obtain a grading permit from the City prior to any on-site or off- site grading.
FPM-D&BMP-6. Developer shall comply with Arvin Municipal Code Chapter 15.32 regarding floodplain requirements and shall provide the floodplain administrator for the City all required plans, forms, and information. This may have implications on the building plans, and may require the elevation of existing structures or modifying the existing structure such that it is flood resistant (i.e. “flood proof” or “water tight”). The applicability of this will depend on the amount of work being proposed to existing structures. It is believed that thresholds which trigger such requirements will be passed, and the developer should be prepared to comply with the more stringent FEMA guidelines.

development that are not essential to health, safety, and welfare, but would on the whole enhance the project and its relationship to the neighborhood and environment.
Discretionary conditions of approval may be appealed. All code requirements, however, are mandatory and may only be modified by variance, provided the findings can be made.
All discretionary conditions of approval will ultimately be deemed mandatory unless appealed to the City Council within 15 days after the decision by the Planning Commission or 10 days after the mailing required notices (if any), whichever date is later.
In the event you wish to appeal the Planning Commission's decision or discretionary conditions of approval, you may do so by filing a written appeal and payment of the established fees with the City Clerk. The appeal shall include a statement of your interest in or relationship to the subject property, the decision or action appealed and specific reasons why you believe the decision or action appealed should not be upheld.

a. All existing and proposed improvements including but not limited to buildings and structures, signs and their uses, trees, walls, driveways, outdoor storage, and open land use areas on the subject property and all of the preceding which are located on adjoining property and may encroach on the subject property; and
b. All public and private easements, rights-of-way and any actual or potential prescriptive easements or uses of the subject property; and,
Approval of this site development permit may become null and void in the event that development is not completed in accordance with all the conditions and requirements, the Zoning Ordinance, and all City Standards and Specifications. This site development permit is granted, and the conditions imposed, based upon the application submittal provided by the applicant. The application is material to the issuance of this site development permit.
Failure to operate in accordance with the conditions and requirements imposed may result in revocation of the site development permit or any other enforcement remedy available under the law.

Acknowledgement of and Affidavit of Acceptance Conditions of Approval for PDP (SDP) 2022-1100BMB – APN 190-250-06 –
Vanguard Medical
Acceptance of Conditions Form – May 2022 Page 2 of 2
Our appeal is ONLY related to the condition of paying for the “Traffic Impact Fee”. We would like to request for the City of Arvin to waive the traffic impact fee. The reasons for our appeal are as follows:
1. We paid the building permit fee of $29,380.20 (without the traffic impact fee) at the time when the City issued us a building permit # BP21-0293 for our project on 12/2/2021. If there was a mistake with the building permit fee, why it took more than 10 months and after two Senior Planners left, for the City to inform us that we would need to pay for the traffic impact fee? Our understanding about the City of Arvin’s rules, all the building permit fees MUST be paid at the time when the building permit is issued. We did abide to the rules by paying the required fees at the time when the building permit was issued to us.
2. Based on the project’s initial study, our project will not create a significant transportation impact to the area; therefore, the traffic impact fee should not be accessed.
3. The Uniform Data System (UDS) Mapper is a publicly available mapping tool intended to help users better understand where federally funded health centers currently serve, where gaps in the safety net might exist, and which neighborhoods or regions might hold the highest priorities for health center expansion. According to the recent UDS Mapper data (2016-2020), the City of Arvin has a total population of 22,546, of which 15,605 of them are considered low income according to the federal poverty guidelines. Based on the 2021 data, the Health Center Penetration (services provided by Clinica Sierra Vista and Omni Family Health) of low-income in the City of Arvin was only 55% while the Health Center Penetration of total population only reached 38%. Our primary care (including Chiropractic & walk-ins) and after-hours services are really needed by the community of Arvin to fill the gaps in healthcare services provided by the existing health centers in the proximity area. We will open our services seven days a week: Monday to Friday – 8am to 7pm and Saturday & Sunday – 9am to 3pm. We will be partnering with other companies to bring radiology and laboratory services on site. Our goal is to bring other health services into our property and minimizing or eliminating the need for Arvin community members to travel to Bakersfield to seek for their health care needs. We want to continue maintaining our collaboration with the City of Arvin by serving the healthcare needs of its community members for many years to come.

CITY OF ARVIN
Staff Report
Meeting Date: February 14, 2023
TO: Arvin City Council
FROM: Jake Raper, Planning Consultant
Jeff Jones, City Manager / Finance Director
SUBJECT: A Public Hearing to Consider Adoption of A Resolution of the City Council of the City of Arvin Adopting the Arvin Environmental Justice Element, an Element to the General Plan, and Accepting the CEQA Determination of a Categorical Exemption per Section 15061(b)(3) (General Rule) of the California Environmental Quality Act (CEQA).
BACKGROUND:
On September 24, 2016, Senate Bill 1000 (SB 1000), the Planning for Healthy Communities Act, was signed into law mandating that cities and counties adopt an environmental justice (EJ) element or integrate EJ goals, objectives, and policies into other elements of their General Plans.
Municipalities were to adopt or review the environmental justice element, or the environmental justice goals, policies, and objectives in other elements, upon the adoption or next revision of two or more elements concurrently on or after January 1, 2018.
Cities and Counties are required to adopt an Environmental Justice Element when it is determined that the jurisdiction is a Disadvantaged Community. Utilizing the program identified as the CalEnviroScreen 4.0, it was determined that the City of Arvin and its surrounding area meets one or more of the criteria established by the State of California, refer to the CalEnviroScreen 4.0 Map Results.
The General Plan Environmental Justice Element sets forward goals and policies related to ensuring environmental justice in the City. In adopting the Environmental Justice Element, the City is ensuring that decisions related to land use and development are made in an equitable manner and take into consideration the health and well-being of our most vulnerable populations.
The key environmental justice topic areas and policies contained in the element are:
1.1 Public Input and Capacity Building
1.2 Land Use and the Environment
1.3 Mobility and Active Living
1.4 Healthy and Affordable Housing

General Plan Consistency
The General Plan serves as a blueprint for the physical development of the City. It sets long term physical, economic, social, and environmental goals for a jurisdiction and identifies the types of development needed to achieve those goals. The nine (9) required Elements of the General Plan (Land Use, Housing, Circulation, Conservation, Open Space, Noise, Safety, Air Quality, and Environmental Justice) and the City’s two (2) optional elements, Water Resources Element, and Community Health Element, complement each other and provide a comprehensive plan for the future of the jurisdiction.
PUBLIC OUTREACH/TRIBAL CONSULTATION:
Public Outreach:
The Planning Commission Public Hearing was noticed on January 12, 2023, for its public hearing on January 25, 2023.
The City Council Public Hearing was noticed on February 3, 2023, for its public hearing date of February 14, 2023.
The City Staff, to solicit public input, prepared and distributed flyers, both in English and Spanish, and distributed the flyer throughout the community. In addition, the City advertised the October 18, 2022, Planning Commission workshop, in English and Spanish, in the Bakersfield Californian newspaper. The City Staff also posted the workshop flyers at City Hall and Planning Office. This public outreach was completed prior to the preparation of the proposed Environmental Justice Element.
On January 12, 2023, the City Clerk submitted the Public Hearing Notice advertising the Planning Commissions potential recommendation of adoption by the City Council and advertised the proposed adoption of the CEQA determination of a Categorical Exemption based upon Section 15061 (b) (3).
Tribal Consultation:
The City of Arvin requested consultation pursuant to SB 18, Government Codes Sections 65352.3 and 65352.4. These code sections require local governments to consult with California Native American tribes identified by the Native American Heritage Commission (NAHC) for the purpose of avoiding, protecting, and/or mitigating impacts to cultural places when creating or amending General Plans, Specific Plans, and Community Plans.
Additionally, pursuant to AB 52, Public Resources Codes Sections 21080.3.1 and 21080.3.2, as the lead agency under the California Environmental Quality Act (CEQA), the City of Arvin extended an invitation to consult on the CEQA review of the proposed Implementation – General Plan Amendments/Rezones & Development Code Text Amendment Projects for the purpose of avoiding, protecting, and/or mitigating impacts to tribal resources as defined by Public Resources Codes Section 21074(a).
Resulting responses from the Tribal Consultation concluded that no further consultation was requested from the tribes contacted.

ENVIRONMENTAL REVIEW
The Environmental Justice Element is a policy document. The project is exempt per Section 15061(b)(3) (General Rule) of the California Environmental Quality Act (CEQA) Guidelines because the project is covered by the general rule that CEQA applies only to projects which have the potential for causing a significant effect on the environment.
FISCAL CONSIDERATIONS
The Environmental Justice Element preparation was paid for by the General Fund. The city may pursue reimbursement from the State of California. The estimated cost for the staff and consultant time for the document preparation, advertisement for public workshop, publication and printing is estimated to be $15,000.00.

Description of Nature, Purpose, and Beneficiaries of Project: On September 24, 2016, Senate Bill 1000 (SB 1000), the Planning for Healthy Communities Act, was signed into law mandating that cities and counties adopt an environmental justice (EJ) element or integrate EJ goals, objectives, and policies into other elements of their General Plans. The City of Arvin has adopted a separate element.
Project location: City Wide Assessor Parcel Number(s): N/A Name of public agency approving project: City of Arvin, CA - City Council approved on February 14, 2023 Name and person or agency carrying out the project: City of Arvin, Panning Division, Chris Soriano, City Planner
Exempt status: SECTION 15061(b)(3) General Rule
Reasons why project is exempt: Reasons to support exemption findings: This section applies only to projects which have the potential for causing a significant effect on the environment but where it can be seen with certainty that there is no possibility that the activity in question may have a significant effect on the environment, the activity is not subject to CEQA. The project is the adoption of the mandated Environmental Justice Element to the General Plan, a policy document. There is no substantial evidence that there are unusual circumstances (including future activities) resulting in (or which might reasonably result in) significant impacts which threaten the environment. The exceptions to the categorical exemptions pursuant to Section 15300.2 of the State CEQA Guidelines are:
(a) Location. Classes 3, 4, 5, 6, and 11 are qualified by consideration of where the project is to be located -- a project that is ordinarily insignificant in its impact on the environment may in a particularly sensitive environment be significant. Therefore, these classes are considered to apply all instances, except where the project may impact on an environmental resource of hazardous or critical concern where designated, precisely mapped, and officially adopted pursuant to law by federal, state, or local agencies. (b) Cumulative Impact. All exemptions for these classes are inapplicable when the cumulative impact of successive projects of the same type in the same place, over time is significant. (c) Significant Effect. A categorical exemption shall not be used for an activity where there is a reasonable possibility that the activity will have a significant effect on the environment due to unusual circumstances. (d) Scenic Highways. A categorical exemption shall not be used for a project which may result in damage to scenic resources, including but not limited to, trees, historic buildings, rock outcroppings, or similar resources, within a highway officially designated as a state scenic highway. This does not apply to improvements which are required as mitigation by an adopted negative declaration or certified EIR. (e) Hazardous Waste Sites. A categorical exemption shall not be used for a project located on a site which is included on any list compiled pursuant to Section 65962.5 of the Government Code. (f) Historical Resources. A categorical exemption shall not be used for a project which may cause a substantial adverse change in the significance of a historical resource.

1.0 INTRODUCTION
"Environmental justice" is defined in California law as the fair treatment of people of all races, cultures, and incomes with respect to the development, adoption, implementation, and enforcement of environmental laws, regulations, and policies (Cal. Gov. Code, § 65040.12, (e).) California is a leader in enacting laws specific to environmental justice, including laws directing funding to environmental justice communities (SB 535 and AB 1550), a law creating a community air quality protection program (AB 617), and another that requires environmental justice to be addressed in local government planning (SB 1000). In addition, the California Environmental Protection Agency and its Office of Environmental Health Hazard Assessment have developed an easy-to-use web-based screening tool called CalEnviroScreen that the public and government can use to help identify communities that are disproportionally burdened by multiple sources of pollution. These agencies have also documented the disproportionate impacts of climate change on environmental justice communities.
In an effort to address the inequitable distribution of pollution and associated health effects in lowincome communities and communities of color, the Legislature passed and Governor Brown signed SB 1000 in 2016, requiring local governments to identify environmental justice communities (called “disadvantaged communities”) in their jurisdictions and address environmental justice in their general plans. This new law has several purposes, including to facilitate transparency and public engagement in local governments’ planning and decisionmaking processes, reduce harmful pollutants and the associated health risks in environmental justice communities, and promote equitable access to health-inducing benefits, such as healthy food options, housing, public facilities, and recreation (Office of the Attorney General, California Department of Justice).
In general, environmental justice is a concept that seeks to minimize and equalize the effect of environmental hazards among all people regardless of race, ethnicity or income level.
The City of Arvin is identified as a “disadvantaged community” as per Senate Bill 1000 (2016), it is considered a low-income community as per AB 1550. To facilitate good planning practices and to comply with applicable law, the City is adding the Environmental Justice Element to its General Plan. The Element will be used by the Arvin City Council, other boards, commissions and agencies, developers and the general public in planning for the physical, and socio-economic development of the City.

2.0 GOAL
An open and transparent public process that improves the quality of life relative to a cleaner and healthier environment. Environmental justice policies and laws are established to ensure that all people, regardless of race, color, national origin or income, have equal protection from environmental hazards where they live, work and play. Furthermore, all people should have the equal ability to participate in, and influence, the decision-making process regarding environmental regulations.

3.0 BACKGROUND
The Environmental Justice Element is a component of the City of Arvin General Plan. As outlined in the California General Plan Guidelines, environmental justice is a subject that should be addressed in the General Plan either through integration into the seven mandatory elements of the plan, or as an optional element. The City has elected to adopt a separate Environmental Justice Element. As provided by California General Plan law, the Element has the same weight as the mandatory elements of the general plan and is internally consistent and compatible with the other elements.
In addition to the Environmental Justice Element, other existing elements of the General Plan also address environmental justice objectives.

4.0 SETTING
4.1 Land Use and Transportation:
The arrangement of land use and transportation can affect the healthfulness of an area because it affects exposure to environmental hazards, accessibility to daily needs and the ability to be physically active. Existing land uses in Arvin are primarily residential with commercial, industrial, agricultural, and open space uses. In general, historic land use patterns led to the existing mix of uses.
The Land Use Element outlines the land use plan for the City. The plan was developed based on sound planning practices. The City of Arvin, main business corridor, is located on significant transportation corridor, Hwy 223, Bear Mountain Boulevard. The Zoning Map and Ordinance contains detailed development regulations to implement the policies of the land use plan.
A City’s circulation system, its network of highways, streets, trails and sidewalks, also influences the environmental health of an area. Inadequate circulation can make it difficult for residents to access daily needs that influence their health, such as shopping and access to public facilities. The City of Arvin, a small rural town located in the heart of California, has the building blocks to establish itself as a great community as it grows. However, the city also faces significant social and economic challenges as it looks to the future. The City's population has expanded in the past decades; however the city experienced a population decrease in 2022. The potential growth should be celebrated as a sign of increasing prosperity, as the City and its surrounding area provide employment opportunities and lifestyles that make Arvin a desirable place to live.
At the same time, growth and development bring challenges to the City by requiring additional public services and infrastructure such as parks and schools, police and fire protection, affordable housing, as well as the need to protect the environment and the area’s productive agricultural lands.
A balance must exist between these priorities if the City is to grow in a healthy and sustainable manner, and the Land Use Element seeks to achieve that balance.
The Kern Regional Blueprint Program is designed to help member cities plan for future growth and improve the quality of life through the integration of transportation, housing, land use, economic development, and environmental protection. The following are the guiding principles for the Blueprint Program:
▪ Conserve energy and natural resources and develop alternatives. ▪ Provide adequate and equitable services.
▪ Enhance economic vitality.
▪ Provide a variety of housing choices.
▪ Use and improve existing community assets and infrastructure. ▪ Use compact, efficient development and/or mixed land uses where appropriate. ▪ Provide a variety of transportation choices.
▪ Conserve undeveloped land and spaces.
▪ Increase civic and public engagement.

Arvin Environmental Justice Element 2023 Page 5 of 21
4.2 Environmental Pollution:
Natural or man-made activity could result in environmental pollution. The impact and magnitude of such pollution on residents depends on the number of people most vulnerable to pollution, i.e., “sensitive receptors” (children, pregnant women, the sick and the elderly), and their socioeconomic status, such as poverty level and unemployment status. Social factors that may also contribute to increased environmental vulnerabilities include a lack of access to fresh food, lack of park and recreation opportunities, as well as an overabundance of liquor stores and fast-food facilities.
Pollution burden is measured by the presence of direct environmental threats (for example, the proximity to a toxic cleanup site, as well as exposure to other environmental threats such as air and water pollution). A number of resources are available to help identify environmental pollution, such as the State CalEnviroscreen and the Federal Environmental Justice Screening Model (EJSM). Using multiple environmental ‘indicators’ they scientifically determine what areas of the City face disproportionate environmental burdens. By identifying these areas, the City can work to mitigate existing adverse conditions and ensure that new development does not unduly impact vulnerable populations.
Community Health and Air Quality Elements
An important consideration in developing the land use policies contained in this element is the effect they will have on Arvin’s public health and air quality, two topics that are addressed in detail in the Community Health and Air Quality Elements of the General Plan. Land use policies contribute to improvements in these two areas by shaping the built environment — the physical, human-made surroundings that provide the setting in which we live, work and play. Residents’ ability to choose whether or not to drive a car, to obtain healthy food, and to incorporate physical activity into their daily routines are influenced by three important characteristics of the built environment: development patterns, site and building design, and the design of streets and public spaces.
▪ Development patterns that incorporate a variety of housing types and locate jobs and services close to neighborhoods can contribute to healthier lifestyles and reduce reliance on automobile travel by enabling more residents to live within walking or bicycling distance of neighborhood services.
▪ Good site design --the placement of buildings on their lots and their relationship to the street and sidewalk-- can contribute to the ease of non-automobile travel by offering safe pedestrian access and making public spaces more inviting. ▪ The design of streets and public spaces can make it easier for residents to get around without a car by including safe, pleasant sidewalks, crosswalks and bicycle paths, and can serve as a resource for residents to engage in physical activity and gather with their neighbors.

Public Health and Safety
A sustainable approach also requires that a community develop in a way that is harmonious with its surroundings, takes into account the hazards posed by natural phenomena, and does not expose present or future residents to excessive risks. In Arvin, such risks mainly take the form of flooding during the storm season, as most of the City is situated in areas with moderate probability of significant flooding. The Land Use Element incorporates policies to guide homes and businesses away from the most flood-prone areas, emphasizing instead recreational and other uses that can be evacuated more easily in the event of an emergency.
Snapshot Exposure Maps (Kern County Multi-Jurisdiction Hazard Mitigation Planning-2021)
The included snapshot maps, displayed below in Figure 1-3 through Figure 1-6 illustrates the City of Arvin’s vulnerability to specific hazards. Figures include:
▪ Figure 1-3: City of Arvin – FEMA Flood Zone Vulnerability & Exposure Snapshot ▪ Figure 1-4: City of Arvin – EQ S. San Andreas Mojave N. Vulnerability & Exposure Snapshot ▪ Figure 1-5: City of Arvin – Subsidence Vulnerability & Exposure Snapshot ▪ Figure 1-6: City of Arvin – Drought Severity Timeline – Middle Kern-Upper TehachapiGrapevine Based on the above risk assessment, the snapshot maps focus on those hazards prioritized by the jurisdiction. These maps helped the Planning Team understand the exposure of population, parcels, and critical infrastructure to specific hazards. Each map contains an exposure summary that displays the percent of the population, the improvement and content value of parcels, and the amount of critical infrastructure that is exposed to each respective hazard.

Future Development
City of Arvin is required to update building codes to meet the minimum standards to those required in the California Building Code last updated in 2019. California Building Codes provide some of the safest construction standards in the world and are meant to reduce risk to occupants from high wind, seismic activity, landslides, flood, wildfire, and other natural hazards. In addition to California minimum develop standards, all jurisdictions belong to the NFIP, as such, all development must meet minimum flood protection standards set forth by FEMA. See Section 4.3.5 of Volume 1 for more information about past and future development in Kern County.
As the General Plan is updated and incorporates information from this HMP, City of Arvin staff are continually improving hazard information through these hazard mitigation plan updates. With this 2020 update, improved online mapping about

City of Arvin reviewed its general plans under the capability assessments undertaken for this hazard mitigation plan. See Section 1.5.1. Deficiencies revealed by these reviews are identified as mitigation actions to decrease risks to move beyond past trends.
The City’s municipal codes includes regulations to mitigate the impact of hazards on new and existing development, including:
▪ Drainage and stormwater retention requirements,
▪ Steep slope restrictions for new development,
▪ Waterbody buffer requirements,
▪ Floodplain management regulations,
▪ Zoning that prevents development in hazardous areas of the community such as floodplains, landslide areas, the wildland-urban interface (WUI), or other known hazard areas, and ▪ Building codes that include the most up-to-date California Fire Code, seismic standards, and many other provisions crafted to protect new construction from hazard events.
Even in the event that limited development did occur within a hazard area, the municipal code should ensure impacts from a hazard event are mitigated and losses are minimal. If development does occur in hazard areas, evacuation and emergency planning should take into consideration the anticipated local impacts of the hazard event, including potential interrupted services or the elimination of access.
The anticipated growth in the City will not cause significant change in vulnerability to the City for identified priority hazards.

4.4 Air Quality:
The American Lung Association’s 2020 “State of the Air” report found California cities continue to dominate the rankings of the nation’s most polluted widespread air pollutants (ozone and particle pollution) both of which can be deadly. Bakersfield was the third worst polluted city in the nation for Ozone; second worst for short-term particle pollution; and first among year-round particle pollution. While the statistics for other cities in Kern County are not readily available, all cities in Kern County, including Arvin, are impacted to a greater or lesser degree by environmental pollution.
The Community Air Protection Program – 2020 Community Recommendations Staff Report – California Air Resources Board, November 20, 2020 provided a number of recommended programs for City of Arvin and Lamont Community. For the purposes of this report, the two areas share common circumstances and are treated as one planning area and recommended programs.
In 2018, the CARB Governing Board adopted the Community Air Protection Blueprint that established Program elements to accomplish AB 617 requirements and selected 10 communities for development of a community emissions reduction program, monitoring plan. Staff recommended “The Arvin, Lamont Community in the SJVAPCD be selected to develop both a community Air monitoring and emissions reduction programs. The cities of Arvin and Lamont are small communities are located at the base of the Tehachapi Mountain range, which acts as a trap for air pollution. A high cumulative exposure burden, a significant number of sensitive receptors, and the census tract for the entire community have been designated as disadvantaged communities. Arvin and Lamont areas are highly affected by regional and local air pollution sources, which includes large scale agricultural practices, concentrated warehouse distribution centers, and oil and gas farm development.

4.5 Highways and Oil Fields:
State Highway 223 (Bear Mountain Boulevard), a east-west corridor, run through the City of Arvin. The core of the City’s commercial center runs along this corridor. The corridor currently begins at Comanche Drive on the west and ends a Tejon Highway (Derby Street). The Future City’s Circulation System has identified its planned road network systems that provide for pedestrian and vehicular circulation systems. The Circulation Element provides an overview of the air quality issues and proposes a number of policies and programs that assist in the reduction to the exposure of air quality to residents. The motor vehicle emissions from these roads generate carbon monoxide, nitrogen oxides, particulate matter and hydrocarbons that react in sunlight to form ozone.
According to the California Air Resources Board (ARB), living close to high traffic volume roads can increase the incidence of respiratory diseases and other adverse health effects, especially affecting lung health. This element provides policies to reduce the exposure of residents to traffic-related pollution.

The limited number of oil rigs and operations are limited with the City limits of Arvin. There are several oil rigs and operations within the city’s sphere of influence. As development occurs, the City works closely with the State of California Department of Conservation, Geologic, Energy Management Division, CalGEM, to ensure that residential development does not occur on top of nor adjacent to either existing or abandon oil wells. The City update Title 17 Zoning by the adoption of Chapter 17.46 Oil and Gas Code that provides permitting procedures and oil well abandonment procedures that protect existing and future residents from potential negative effects of oil and gas extraction.

5.0 OBJECTIVES AND POLICIES
Environmental Justice encompasses several inter-related topics. Topics of concern to the City of Arvin are addressed as follows:
1. Public Input and Capacity Building;
2. Land Use and the Environment;
3. Mobility and Active Living; and
4. Healthy and Affordable Housing.
Each topic is presented below with a description, an objective (what the City wishes to achieve), and policies to accomplish the objective. Together, the objectives and policies are expected to resolve the perceived, or real, environmental justice conflicts with regards future proposals for development, public participation and provision of city services.
5.1 Public Input and Capacity Building
Disadvantaged members of a community often do not have a meaningful voice in decisions that affect their environment. The causes of this are many, including cultural and language barriers, the lack of information, inadequate training, lack of exposure to the decision-making process and officials who aren’t informed about issues of concern for those members of the community. The Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) identifies community capacity building as efforts to engage disadvantaged populations to help them better identify and meet the needs of their areas.
It includes building on existing skills, providing education on issues and processes and helping them communicate effectively in the public realm. At the individual level, capacity building focuses on the development of conditions that allow individual participants to build and enhance existing knowledge and skills and engage in public processes. At the City level, capacity building refers to ensuring the municipal organization is responsive and accountable to all stakeholders and that officials are informed about issues of concern for the community.
Objective EJ-1: Meaningful participation in the public process by all members of the community.
Policies:
EJ-1.1: Ensure that affected residents have the opportunity to participate in decisions that impact their health.
EJ-1.2: Facilitate the involvement of residents, businesses and organizations in all aspects of the planning process.
EJ-1.3: Schedule public meetings on key issues affecting the public at times and locations most convenient to community members.
EJ-1.4: Support efforts to raise the public’s awareness of the importance of a healthy environment and physical activity.
4.B.6

EJ-1.6: Consult with Native American Tribes early in the process on issues that could affect culturally significant areas.
EJ-1.7: Collaborate with and among public agencies to leverage resources, avoid duplication of effort and enhance the effectiveness of public participation.
5.2 Land Use and the Environment
This section addresses environmental hazards as well as land use planning to ensure that city residents are not adversely impacted by new development where they live work and play.
Additionally, policies that address how to improve or retrofit existing hazards are included. In addition to air emissions, commercial and industrial development, and their related trucks, can also generate traffic, noise, odors, light and glare which can adversely affect residential populations.
Objective EJ-2: A reduction in disproportionate environmental burdens affecting lowincome and minority populations.
Policies:
EJ-2.1: Require that proposals for new sensitive land uses are located adequate distances from major roadways based on an analysis of physical and meteorological conditions at the project site.
EJ-2.2: Require that proposals for new sensitive land uses incorporate adequate setbacks, barriers, landscaping or other measures as necessary to minimize air quality impacts.
EJ-2.3: Provide adequate buffers between schools and industrial facilities/ transportation corridors.
EJ-2.4: Require that zoning regulations provide adequate separation and buffering of residential and industrial uses.
EJ-2.5: Designate truck routes to avoid residential areas including low-income and minority neighborhoods.
EJ-2.6: Give preference in approving commercial and industrial development to those projects that incorporate the latest technologies to reduce diesel emissions.
EJ-2.7: Build new sensitive land uses with sufficient buffering from industrial facilities and uses that pose a significant hazard to human health and safety. The California Air Resources Board recommends that sensitive land uses be located at least 1,000 feet from hazardous industrial facilities.
EJ-2.8: Ensure that low income and minority populations have equal access and influence in the land use decision-making process.

EJ-2.16: Support programs to promote the use of energy efficiency products and renewable energy systems.
EJ-2.17: Encourage public and private development to incorporate green building techniques such as construction waste management practices, optimization of energy efficiency measures and avoidance of toxic chemicals.
5.3 Mobility and Active Living
Mobility is a critical issue in bringing equity to both low income and disadvantaged communities.
These communities often lack access to needed resources, such as schools, health clinics and healthy food outlets. More likely than other communities to rely on public transportation, they often live-in areas with limited transit service. Increased mobility options will provide critical links and opportunities for active living.
Objective EJ-3: Increased mobility and accessibility for all residents.
Policies:
EJ-3.1: Locate medium and high-density housing near jobs, transit, shopping, schools and other needed facilities.
EJ-3.2: Increase access to shopping, jobs and healthcare facilities for low-income and minority populations.

EJ-3.15: Encourage the private and non-profit sectors to provide recreational opportunities in the City.
EJ-3.16: Ensure that emergency preparedness and disaster response programs serve all parts of the City.
5.4 Healthy and Affordable Housing
A major emphasis of environmental justice is ensuring that people have a healthy home environment. According to the National Human Activity Pattern Survey, Americans spend 70% of the time in their homes. Low-income and minority populations are disproportionately affected by home health hazards as their limited incomes reduce housing choices and their options for maintenance and repairs. Housing-related environmental hazards include exposure to indoor air pollution, lead-based paint, asbestos, mold and mildew. These toxins can cause developmental
