TO: Arvin City Council
FROM: Oscar Fuentes, P.E.; City Engineer
SUBJECT: Consideration and Approval of a Resolution of the City Council of the City of Arvin Ordering the City Engineer to File A Report With Regard to the Landscape and Lighting Maintenance District No. 1 for the 2024-2025 Fiscal Year.

BACKGROUND:

The City of Arvin maintains various landscapes, lighting and drainage improvements within the boundaries of Landscape and Lighting Maintenance District #1. Pursuant with the Landscaping and Lighting Act of 1972, a report of the improvements and the proposed special assessments must be prepared annually for review by the Council and the public so that annual assessments can be made. The first step in the process is for the City Council to initiate proceedings and to direct the City Engineer to prepare an updated report.

Currently, there are no substantial changes to the limits of the district, and no annexations are proposed.

FINANCIAL IMPACT:

The funds from the Maintenance District will be collected by the Kern County Assessor’s Office and disbursed to the City as a special assessment. When collected, these assessments will go into a fund that shall be used to pay for the maintenance and operation of the lighting, landscaping, walls, drainage, and administration of the district. As provided by the Landscaping and Lighting Act of 1972, a reassessment may provide for additional funds to be collected based on the Consumer Price Index of Los Angeles / Anaheim / Riverside for 2023. Said assessment may be for an amount of up to a 3.4% increase from the previous fiscal year assessment.

RECOMMENDATION:

Staff recommend that the City Council approve a resolution which initiates the above-described actions.

Staff Report re Amend No. 1 to Agmt No. 2024-07 – Harbor Plumbing – DiGiorgio Park Restroom Project.

CITY OF ARVIN
Staff Report
Meeting Date: April 23, 2024
TO: Arvin City Council
FROM: Jeff Jones, City Manager / Finance Director
SUBJECT: Consideration and Approval of Amendment No. 1 to Agreement No. 2024-07 Public Works Agreement by and between City of Arvin and Harbor Plumbing Company – DiGiorgio Park Restroom Restoration Project.

BACKGROUND:

The City Council previously approved a public works agreement with Harbor Plumbing Company (Contractor) for restoration of the DiGiorgio Park restrooms at their meeting of January 23, 2024. The project involves restoration of the park restrooms including replumbing water and sewage lines above ground, placing restroom fixtures such as toilets, urinals, sinks, and lavatory fixtures.

The plumber’s (contractor’s) insurance agency has made a request to the City to waive the builders risk insurance and the pollution liability insurance because although they may be required of a general contractor, they are not typically required for plumbers. The insurance agent indicates that the insurance industry does not see the builder’s risk requirement applicable to a C-36 plumbing contractor, as they are not a general contractor that perform services as such.

The general liability insurance policy insures the plumbing company and the City of Arvin is placed as an additional insured for bodily injury, property damage, and product liability. This satisfies items 1, 2, 3 & 4 of Section 5.1 (e) of the Agreement (if the plumber’s actions cause property damage); Items 5 & 7 is for property in possession of the plumber and this responsibility falls on the plumber and his insurance until the items are installed at the City’s locations. Builder’s risk policy only covers the uninstalled parts while they are at the construction site. The regular general liability policy covers the plumber’s work; Item 6 is called Inland Marine, not Ocean Marine coverage and it provides coverage for the plumber’s tools and equipment on site, not the City’s tools and equipment.

The insurance agent’s underwriters also confirmed that the insureds general liability policy suffice the requirements of the City and have indicated that anymore would be stacking limits and limits with no insurable interest. Builder’s risk insurance is a type of specialized property insurance that provides temporary coverage and protects buildings and structures under construction or undergoing renovation from physical loss or damage.

The insurance requirements of the City’s Public Works Agreement template are tailored to general contractors and for larger type of construction projects such as road or building

The Honorable Pete Buttigieg, Secretary
U.S. Department of Transportation
1200 New Jersey Avenue, SE
Washington, DC 20590
RE: Kern Council of Governments’ Completing the Southbound (SB) State Route 99 to Westbound (WB) State Route 58 National Freight Network Interchange to Protect Local Neighborhoods (Project)
Honorable Secretary Buttigieg:

The City of Arvin supports the application of Kern Council of Governments (Kern COG) to the United States Department of Transportation’s Multimodal Project Discretionary Grant (MPDG) Program Opportunity for Fiscal Year 2025-2026.

This Project completes the interchange by adding the missing freeway-to-freeway ramp allowing over-the-road freight to transition from southbound SR 99 to westbound SR 58, connecting them to western Kern County and Interstate 5. Trucks traveling through these two corridors make up 22% of total vehicles. Route 58 is the busiest east-west truck route in the San Joaquin Valley. Regionally, this interchange serves multi-modal transportation facilities (air and rail), and distribution centers. The Project is critical to the safety and efficiency of the system, benefits the region’s economic strength, and increases the region’s global competitiveness.

Kern COG continues to diligently work to improve air quality and to reduce greenhouse gas emissions from transportation in Kern County on an interchange that serves goods movement in central California. The Project is in a historically disadvantaged community whose residents and businesses will benefit from improving air quality, safety, and traffic flow.

Funding this project at this time capitalizes on work already underway at the interchange.

Kern COG and Caltrans recently received a California Trade Corridor Enhancement Program grant to complete engineering and design work and right-of-way acquisitions.

Construction will start in 2026. An INFRA grant will fund 60% of the construction of this interchange, significant to the national freight movement.

I assure you that this Project in Kern County is valued by our community. I request that you fund this Project with 2025 INFRA funding. Thank you for your consideration.

BACKGROUND:

The City Council Introduced by title only on April 9, 2024 Ordinance of the City of Arvin, California, Adding Chapter 16.06 Urban Lot Splits; Amending Chapter 16.04 General Provision, Section 16.04.090 Tentative Map – Expiration and Extension; Section 16.04.095 Tentative Parcel Map-Expiration and Extension; and acknowledge that the code amendment is statutorily exempt from the California Environmental Quality Act (CEQA). The City Council report and information is on file at the City Clerk's office.

Summary of Title 16 Subdivision Addition and Amendments as required by Senate Bill SB9:

The proposed code amendments will focus on the amendments to the City of Arvin Title 16 Subdivision by adding Chapter 16.06 Urban Lot Splits; amending Chapter 16.04 General Provision; Sections 16.04.090 and 16.04.095 Expirations and Extensions of time to record final or parcel maps.

The proposed ordinance amending Title 16 Subdivision will add Chapter 16.06 Urban Lot Splits; amend Chapter 16.04 General Provision; Section 16.04.090 Tentative Map -Expiration and Extension; Section 16.04.095 Tentative Parcel Map-Expiration and Extension and will acknowledge that the code amendment is statutorily exempt from the California Environmental Quality Act (CEQA). The ordinance amendments will do the following:
• Add Chapter 16.06 Urban Lot Split to Title 16 Subdivision:

The ordinance addition will implement the requirements of SB 9, Government Code 66411.7.

This government code section, GC 66411.7, establishes the statutory requirements that will permit the ministerial approval of urban lot split of a single-family residential zoned property. This chapter includes Sections 16.06.010 – Intent which explains the purpose of SB9 in providing

opportunity for additional residential development, Section 16.06.020 Definition for an Urban Lot Split, Section 16.06.030 General Provisions that will apply to all Urban Lot Splits, and Section

16.06.040 Development Standards that implement SB 9.
• Amend Chapter 16.04 General Provision; Sections 16.04.090 and 16.04.095 Time Extensions:

Amending Title 16- Subdivision, Chapter 16.04 General Provisions, Section 16.04.090 Tentative Map – Expiration and Extension and Section 16.04.095 Tentative Parcel Map- Expiration and Extension; will provide additional time for a tentative map that has been either approved or conditionally approved to be recorded and will implement the requirements of the SB 9, Government Code 66452.6. The additional time to record the final map or parcel map is extended from 12 months to 24 months. The code amendments will implement the requirements of SB9, Government Code 66452.6 which extended the time from 12 months to 24 months. Previously, a tentative map period was twelve (12) months in which to record the final map, unless time extensions were either permitted by State Law or by City Approval. The new law now provides a twenty-four (24) month period to file a final map unless time extensions are permitted by State Law or approved by the City. These two sections have been expanded to reflect the Subdivision Map Act permitting time extensions under certain circumstances.

PUBLIC HEARING NOTICE:

The public hearing Notice of Intent to adopt code amendment to Title 16 Subdivisions, Amending Chapter 16.04 general Provision, Section 16.04.090 Tentative Map – Expiration and Extension; Section 16.04.095 Tentative Parcel Map – Expiration and Extension; adding chapter

16.06 Urban Lot Splits; and Acknowledge that the code amendment is statutorily exempt from the California Environmental Quality Act (CEQA) was posted five (5) days prior to the April 27, 2024 hearing as required by Government Code Section 36933.

ENVIRONMENTAL REVIEW AND DETERMINATION:

The preparation and adoption of the ordinance is not considered a project under CEQA. In other words, the preparation and adoption of the ordinance is statutorily exempt from CEQA.

CEQA Does Not Apply: California Environmental Quality Act (CEQA); Reference: Gov. Code, §§ 65852.21, subd. (j); 66411.7, subd. (n)) Because the approval of a qualifying project under SB 9 is deemed a ministerial action, CEQA does not apply to the decision to grant an application for a housing development or a lot split, or both. (Pub. Resources Code, § 21080, subd. (b)(1) [CEQA does not apply to ministerial actions]; CEQA Guidelines, § 15268.) For this reason, a local agency must not require an applicant to perform environmental impact analysis under CEQA for applications made under SB 9. Additionally, if a local agency chooses to adopt a local ordinance to implement SB 9 (instead of implementing the law directly from statute), the preparation and adoption of the ordinance is not considered a project under CEQA. In other words, the preparation and adoption of the ordinance is statutorily exempt from CEQA.

FISCAL CONSIDERATIONS:

Revenue Reduction: Minor reduction in revenues due to the state's ordinance preventing a local agency from assessing discretionary processing fees. Cost of staff in the preparation of the proposed ordinance and public hearing notices.

It is recommended that the City Council approve the 2nd Reading and Adoption of the attached ordinance: An Ordinance Amendments Adding Chapter 16.06 Urban Lot Splits; Amending Chapter

PROJECT ANALYSIS AND ENVIRONMENTAL REVIEW:

The Initial Study and supporting documentation is on file at the City Clerk’s Office located at 200 Campus Drive, Arvin, CA 93203. Based upon the conclusions of the Initial Study, results from consultation and public noticing, Planning Commission recommend that the City Council adopt the resolution accepting the Mitigated Negative Declaration as the appropriate CEQA action and adopt a Mitigation Monitoring Program.

Precision Civil Engineering, Inc. (PCE) has prepared this Initial Study/Mitigated Negative Declaration (IS/MND) on behalf of the City of Arvin (City) to address the environmental effects of the proposed City of Arvin General Plan Amendment No. 2024-01 and Rezone No. 2024-01 for Comanche Drive and Varsity Avenue (Project). This document has been prepared in accordance with the California Environmental Quality Act (CEQA), Public Resources Code Section 21000 et. seq. The City of Arvin is the Lead Agency for this proposed Project.

No physical development is proposed by the Project, the Initial Study analyzes the potential buildout of the Project site at a programmatic level, using reasonable assumptions so that future development of the site can tier from this Initial Study pursuant to CEQA Guidelines Section 15168(c)(1) and 15168(d) for evaluations of environmental issues associated with later activities/subsequent projects. However, depending on the final design of future physical development, additional project specific CEQA review may be required as determined by the City through the entitlement review and approval process.

For the purposes of the analysis contained in the Initial Study, the vision for the Project site is high density residential development containing multiple-family dwellings, whereby “multiple-family dwelling” is defined as “a building or portion thereof, designed for or occupied by three (3) or more families living independently of each other” pursuant to AMC Section 17.02.210. Therefore, the assumed “project” to be analyzed in this Initial Study is a multiple-family dwelling that is developed in accordance with the General Plan and AMC. Specifically, the assumed maximum density of the proposed Project is 30 dwelling units per acre, which is consistent with the modifications to the High-Density Residential land use designation under the proposed General Plan Amendment and the modifications to the R-4 zone district under the proposed Development Code Text Amendment. With this assumed maximum density, buildout of the Project site could yield a maximum of 85 multi-family residential units (calculation: 30 dwelling units per acre multiplied by 2.84 acres equals 85.2 units).

The Precision Civil Engineering, Inc. (PCE), under contract with the City of Arvin, has prepared a series of analysis that have analyzed the potential infrastructure and service needs and has completed an appropriate environmental study which is applicable to proposed project. Various analysis include traffic, water, and sewer that address the infrastructure needs to serve the project.

Other analyses completed were air quality, aesthetics, biological resources, greenhouse gas emissions, population and housing, agricultural resources, cultural resources, hazards and hazardous materials, mineral resources, public services, tribal cultural resources, geology and soils, hydrology and water, noise, recreation and utilities and service systems.

Conclusions of these studies and the completion of the Initial Study for the project have resulted in the preparation of a Mitigated Negative Declaration and a Mitigation Monitoring and Reporting Program. The filing and public notice has been submitted for public review and comment as required by the California Environmental Quality Act.

EXISTING GENERAL PLAN LAND USE DESIGNATION AND ZONING:

Currently, the 2018 Arvin General Plan Land Use Designation is Low Density Residential “the Low-Density Residential land use designation allows traditional single-family and two-family homes in the City of Arvin with one to ten dwelling units per acre. Residences in this category consist generally of single-family detached houses with private yards.

The maximum density range of the Low-Density Residential land use designation is 6 to 10 units per acre. The project site is currently zoned R-1-PUD – Single Family Dwelling with Planned Urban Development overlay as shown below.

Existing General Plan Land Use Designation- LD Existing Zoning Classification – R-1 PUD PROPOSED GENERAL PLAN LAND USE DESIGNATION AND ZONING:

The City of Arvin proposes General Plan Amendment (GPA) 2024-01 to change the land use designation from Low Density Residential to High Density Residential in order to facilitate higher density, multi-family residential development. According to the General Plan, “the High-Density Residential developments consist typically of multi-family housing projects such as apartments and condominiums. Areas designated High Density Residential are to be integrated thorough the community adjacent to transportation, community services, and commercial developments. A minimum residential density development shall be 21 units per acre. Should development be proposed at a lower than minimum density, it shall be the responsibility of the developer to add additional lands to the High-Density Residential Land Use Designation and rezone alternative sites to offset the loss of housing opportunities for affordable housing. The replacement of the site(s) for housing opportunity shall occur prior to or concurrent with the development of lower density residential or alternative land use development. Typical zoning designation is R-4.” The current residential density range of the High-Density Residential land use designation is 16 to 24 dwelling units per acre.

With this assumed maximum density, buildout of the Project site could yield a maximum of 85 multi-family residential units (calculation: 30 dwelling units per acre multiplied by 2.84 acres equals 85.2). The proposed zone changes of the 2.84 +/- Acres to R-4 – Multiple Family Dwelling zone district will permit a residential density range of up to 68 to 85 residential units.
