SUBJECT: Ratifying Purchase and Installation of a Variable Frequency Drive (VFD) for Well 20-A (Public Works Director Vinson)
RECOMMENDED COUNCIL ACTION
Adoption of Resolution No. 3639-26 Ratifying a Purchase Order to Pump Pros Inc. of Ceres, California for the purchase and installation of a VFD for Well 20-A in an amount of $161,328.53; and authorizes and directs the City Manager to execute the purchase order on behalf of the City
I. BACKGROUND/ANALYSIS:
On Sunday night, July 12, 2026, and Monday morning, July 13, 2026, there were two PG&E power outages in the area of Fairway Dr and Green Sands Ave, where Well 20-A is located. During the first power outage, the well switched over to generator power and was working as normal. This power outage lasted around 3 hours, from 8:00 P.M. to 11:00 P.M. During the second power outage at 4:12 A.M on July 13, 2026, Monday morning, the well did not switch over to the generator power. The outage lasted around 15 minutes, but when the power came back on, the well was still off.
City staff showed up to the well site, and noticed that the well would not turn on in hand or in auto. After troubleshooting, staff noticed that the Allen and Bradley Variable Frequency Drive (VFD), the equipment that starts and determines the speed of the pump, was not powered on and the cover was partially off. After removing the cover, staff could see that the VFD had burnt components inside. Staff scheduled Pump Pros Inc. to go to Well 20-A the following day. Pump Pros Inc. is an authorized vendor for Allen and Bradley and has the most knowledge locally of these VFD's.
On Tuesday, July 14, 2026, Pump Pros showed up to Well 20-A to see if there was anything they could do to get the well to at least run or if there was anything they could do to get the VFD to work. They were unsuccessful, so they contacted the Allen and Bradley support team. After discussions with the support team, Allen and Bradley determined the VFD was no longer functional, and the city had two options: send the VFD in for repairs, which is an estimated 8-10 week turnaround time, or purchase their

last exact replacement VFD that they have in Indiana and have it shipped immediately to the city. Staff also had Pump Pros Inc reach out to other vendors, but none of them would fit in the cabinet like the Allen Bradley, so additional work would be needed to move equipment and wires around in the cabinet to get them to fit, and there was no guarantee that we could install, and they would work correctly right away.
Due to being in the heat of summer, and Well 13 being down due to the pump being shipped out for repairs, the city could not wait 8–10 weeks for the repair and still deliver an adequate pounds per square inch (psi) of water to the residents. To ensure adequate psi, staff instructed Pump Pros Inc to immediately purchase the VFD and have it shipped as soon as possible. This was an emergency purchase, so that the city stayed complaint with delivering sufficient psi to its residents and customers.
During the week that staff was waiting for the VFD to be delivered, staff was going out to the prison around 8:00 p.m. every night to open up a valve to send water from the well at the prison to the city to help increase the water psi. City staff also shut off the water to all the parks from Shaffer to Buhach to help with water demand.
The VFD arrived on Tuesday, July 21, 2026, and was installed that day by Pump Pros Inc. They were able to get Well 20-A to run in hand and worked with Tesco Controls to get the well to run in auto. City staff is going to send the old VFD to Allen and Bradley to see how much it would be to repair, so that the city would have a working backup in case the city runs into the same issue in the future.

SRO daily hours shall be no less than eight (8) hours a day with the daily hourly schedule determined by a collaboration between District and Department leadership.
7. Program Criteria. The Parties will work collaboratively to be responsive to evolving school and law enforcement requirements.
8. Employment. The SRO will be an employee of the City. The SRO’s salary and benefits will be paid by the City and reimbursed by the District, as provided in Section 10.
9. Training and Supervision. The SRO shall receive SRO’s work assignments from the City and shall be supervised in the performance of SRO’s duties by the Chief of the Department or his or her designee. The City and Department shall be responsible for training the SRO according to applicable law enforcement standards. The Superintendent of the District or designee will provide the Chief of the Department with information to assist in evaluating the SRO. Any disciplinary problems or alleged improprieties involving the SRO shall be brought to the attention of the Chief of the Department or designee.
10. Costs. Notwithstanding the additional expenses to be paid by the District as referenced in Section 12, and in consideration for regular services of the SRO Program provided by the City and the Department, the District agrees to pay the City in four quarterly payments pursuant to an Addendum (attached exemplar Addendum estimate for FY 26/27 for reference). The Addendum shall represent approximately 75% of the salary and benefits of the SRO. In consideration of incidental expenses such as cell phone stipend, maintenance, fuel, and cellular charges for the marked police vehicle assigned to the SRO, an additional 3% shall be included in the cost of the Program and shall be included in the Addendum. Each invoice provided to the District shall include a 1.5% contract administration fee of the itemized costs invoiced. The District will be responsible for payment of services directly related to the SRO Program to include services performed outside of the normal work schedule (overtime), and the additional expenses contained in Section 12. If the District determines, in its reasonable discretion, that absences or reassignments of the SRO are of a chronically unreasonable nature, the City shall deduct a pro rata portion from the amount payable by the District at the next billing for such absences.
11. Supplies and Equipment. The City agrees to provide the SRO with a laptop, cell phone, standard issued uniforms and equipment, firearm and rounds of ammunition, and vehicle as needed to perform duties. The District agrees to provide an office (when practicable), desk, desk chair, internet access, and the usual and customary office supplies to the SRO.
12. Additional Expenses. The following additional expenses shall only be paid by the District: actual cost of SRO’s overtime related to services performed outside of the normal work schedule (e.g., parent meetings, athletic events, dances, graduations, SRO specific training etc.).
13. Student Records.
a. The Parties agree that the SRO shall be deemed to be a “school official” for the performance of SRO’s duties on behalf of District. The SRO shall therefore be allowed access to student records but the District is in direct control of the use, maintenance, and disclosure of student records in accordance with Education Code section 49076 and other applicable provisions of law. School officials shall allow the SRO to inspect and copy any student records maintained by the school for which the SRO has a “legitimate educational interest” within the scope of the
SRO’s service under this Agreement. This includes access to student directory information to the extent permitted by District policy, classroom assignments, attendance records, and discipline files. However, the SRO may not inspect or copy confidential student records outside the scope of the SRO’s service, except as allowed by law.
b. If confidential student record information is needed in an emergency to protect the health or safety of a student or others, the District may disclose to the SRO information that is needed to respond to the emergency situation based on the seriousness of the threat to someone’s health or safety, the need of the information to meet the emergency situation, and the extent to which time is of the essence c. If confidential student record information is needed by the SRO, but no emergency situation exists, unless section 13(d) applies, the information may be released only upon the issuance of a subpoena, a court order or written authorization of the parent/guardian.
d. Pursuant to Education Code section 48902, the principal or designee shall notify the SRO of any acts of a student that may violate specified provisions of the Penal Code and Education Code. This may require the disclosure of the student’s name or other identifying information to the SRO, along with information related to the underlying offense.
14. Law Enforcement Records. Pursuant to Welfare and Institutions Code sections 827, 828.1 and 828.3, certain law enforcement records, probation reports and juvenile case file information may be provided to the District Superintendent or his/her designee. In addition to providing such information directly to the District Superintendent, the SRO may provide such information to the principal of the school in which a minor student is enrolled and the principal shall be a designee of the Superintendent for the receipt of such information.
15. Feedback and Evaluation. The Parties agree on the importance of evaluating the SRO program. The Parties will work together to develop and implement procedures including an agreed upon evaluation/assessment form on the performance of the SRO and SRO program to provide periodic feedback and evaluation data for the purpose of measuring the program’s effectiveness.
16. Discrimination. The Parties shall not discriminate because of race, religion, color, national origin, disability, marital status, age, or sex against any person by refusing any person or privilege offered to or engaged by the general public.
17. Indemnification.
a. The City shall indemnify, defend, and hold harmless the District, its officers, officials, employees, and volunteers (collectively “District Agents”) from and
against any and all liability, claims, damage, cost, expenses, awards, fines, judgments, and expenses of litigation (including, without limitation, costs, reasonable attorney fees, expert witness fees and prevailing party fees and cost) of every nature arising out of the active negligence by the City and City’s Agents or the gross negligence or willful misconduct of the SRO during the performance of this Agreement.
b. The District shall indemnify, defend, and hold harmless the City, its officers, officials, employees, and volunteers (collectively, “City Agents”) from and against any and all liability, claims, damage, cost, expenses, awards, fines, judgments, and expenses of litigation (including, without limitation, costs, reasonable attorney fees, expert witness fees and prevailing party fees and cost) of every nature arising out of or in connection with the District or SRO’s performance under this Agreement, except to the extent such loss or damage which was caused by the active negligence by the City and City Agents, or the gross negligence or willful misconduct of the SRO.
c. Each Party shall notify the other Party within ten (10) days of any claims or legal actions with respect to any of the matters described in this indemnification section. d. If a Party rejects a tender of defense by the other Party, and it is later determined that the other Party breached no duty of care and/or was immune from liability, that Party shall reimburse the other Party for any and all litigation expenses (including, without limitation, costs, attorney fees, expert witness fees and prevailing party fees and cost). A duty of care or immunity determination may be made by a jury or a court, including a declaratory relief determination by a court after the other Party settles a liability claim, with or without participation by that Party.
e. The Parties acknowledge that it is not the intent of the Agreement to create a duty of care by the City, Department or the SRO that they would not owe in the absence of the Agreement, unless expressly provided herein. Except as provided in Section 4, the Agreement does not create an affirmative duty of care (including, without limitation, a duty to protect, a duty to deter and/or a duty to intervene) by the Department or the SRO and the absence of the SRO and/or the patrol vehicle is not a material breach of this Agreement. The Parties further acknowledge that by entering into this Agreement neither the City, Department, SRO, nor the District intends to waive any immunities to which they would be entitled in the absence of the Agreement.
18. Applicable Law. The City and Department shall provide the services specified in this Agreement in accordance with any applicable federal and state statutes, regulation and directives.
19. Entire Agreement. This Agreement, including all recitals, constitutes the entire agreement of the Parties regarding the subject matter of this Agreement and supersedes all previous SRO agreements between the Parties.
20. Assignment. Neither Party shall assign or transfer any right or duty in this Agreement.
21. Integration of Prior Terms and Conditions and Authorized Agent. This Agreement, including all recitals and Exhibits constitutes the entire Agreement of the Parties. This Agreement may be amended or modified only by the mutual written agreement of the Parties.
This Agreement is invalid unless approved by the legislative body of each Party, although it may be executed by an authorized agent of each Party. An authorized agent of the Department shall be a person specifically authorized by the legislative body of the City to execute this Agreement, at the level of City Manager or City Attorney or equivalent.
22. Severability. If any term or provision of this Agreement is determined to be unlawful or in conflict with any law of the State of California, the validity of the remaining portions or provisions shall not be affected. Each term or provision of the Agreement shall be valid and enforced as written to the fullest extent permitted by law.

Fund (Interim City Manager Martin)
RECOMMENDED COUNCIL ACTION
Adoption of Resolution No. 3640-26, authorizing and directing the City Manager to execute and file the Regional Surface Transportation Program (RSTP) Exchange Funds Claim for Fiscal Year 2025/2026; and Adoption of Resolution No. 3641-26, approving Budget Amendment No. 15 amending Fiscal Year 26-27 to establish budget in the Regional Surface Transportation Program (RSTP) Fund, for the RSTP Exchange Funds Claim.
I. BACKGROUND/ANALYSIS:
I. BACKGROUND:
Annually, Merced County Association of Governments (MCAG) provides the City of Atwater (“City”) the opportunity to participate in the exchange of unobligated federal transportation funds for state funds under the Regional Surface Transportation Program (RSTP) Exchange Funds Program. Exchanging federal funds for state funds allows the City greater flexibility in the use of transportation revenues.
The claim form requires the City to designate project(s) that are defined under Sections 133(b) and 133(c) of Title 23, United States Code and Article XIX of the California State Constitution, implemented in accordance with the requirements of Section 182.6(d)(1) of the Streets and Highway Code. At the direction of the City Council during its August 10, 2026 meeting, the City is not committing the funds to a single, specific project at this time and will instead identify eligible transportation purposes that meet program requirements.

Housing Element
CA Government Code Title 7, Division 1, Chapter 3, Article 10.6 [65580 – 65589.11] regulates the use and requirements of housing elements in California. State law requires each jurisdiction to adopt a Housing Element every eight years. The Housing Element is a mandatory chapter of the City's General Plan and must be updated in accordance with state law. It evaluates the effectiveness of previous housing goals and programs and assesses the City's existing and future housing needs. It also identifies suitable sites for housing development and sets forth goals and programs to address these housing needs.
The Department of Housing and Community Development (HCD) assigns a regional housing needs determination number to the local Council of Governments (COG). In this case, the Merced County Association of Governments (MCAG) received the regional number from HCD and allocated a portion to each jurisdiction within the region based on an adopted methodology. For the Sixth Cycle, the City of Atwater was assigned a RHNA number of 3,017 total housing units, as shown in Table 1.

As part of the Atwater General Plan, the Housing Element serves as a citywide policy document. The primary goal of the Housing Element is to identify capacity to meet the RHNA goal of 3,017 units and develop strategies to facilitate the development of these units during the eight-year cycle.
Components of the Housing Element
The Atwater Housing Element is a part of the Merced County Multi-Jurisdictional Housing Element (MJHE), identified as Appendix B of the larger document and organized into seven sections as summarized below:
1. B1: Review of Past Accomplishments
Pursuant to Government Code Section 65588, each jurisdiction's Housing Element must be reviewed to evaluate the appropriateness of housing goals, the effectiveness of the element, and progress made in meeting the community's housing needs. Programs deemed effective in the Fifth Cycle are being carried forward, while ineffective or infeasible ones are removed.
For the Fifth Cycle (2015-2023), Atwater had a RHNA goal of 1,760 units. During this period, 427 building permits for new construction were issued, achieving 24 percent of the RHNA goal.
2. B2: Public Participation
As part of the Housing Element, cities must make a diligent effort to engage all economic segments of the community. This goes beyond routine public notices and requires proactive outreach to encourage meaningful public input.
Agenda Report - Waiving the First Reading, by Title Only, and Introducing an Ordinance Adopting Zoning Ordinance Text Amendment Amending Chapter 17.12 Entitled Administration and General Conditions of the Atwater Municipal Code and Adopting Zoning Map Amendment to the Official Atwater Zoning Map and Adopting a Resolution Approving Addendum to the EIR, Adopting General Plan Amendments to Update the General Plan Land Use Element and Adopting the State Approved Housing Element to Implement State Law Requirements (Community Development Director Hanson Lan) Page 4
3. B3: Housing Needs Assessment
Within the Housing Element, Atwater is required to analyze the existing and projected housing needs of the City, including its fair share of RHNA requirements.
The City’s analysis of housing needs is required to include an assessment of detailed demographic data including population, age, size, and ethnicity; household characteristics; overpayment trends; housing stock conditions; units in need of replacement or rehabilitation; and needs of special needs populations including the elderly, persons with disabilities, unhoused persons, extremely low-income households, and farmworkers.
4. B4: Housing Constraints Analysis
The constraints section of the Housing Element is intended to identify potential and actual governmental restraints as they pertain to housing development in Atwater.
Governmental constraints can include land use controls such as infeasible development standards contained in the Zoning Ordinance, land use policies that do not comply with fair housing laws, and lengthy, expensive, and daunting permitting and processing procedures. Non-governmental constraints include factors outside of the local government's control and primarily market-driven, such as land costs, construction costs, and the availability of financing.
5. B5: Affirmatively Furthering Fair Housing (AFFH)
Pursuant to Assembly Bill (AB) 686, all housing elements due on or after January 1, 2021, are required to contain an assessment of fair housing consistent with the federal AFFH rule. AFFH is defined as "taking meaningful actions, in addition to combating discrimination, that overcome patterns of segregation and foster inclusive communities free from barriers that restrict access to opportunity based on protected characteristics." The Housing Element further identifies contributing factors for housing issues and defines the meaningful actions to overcome and address these issues. These meaningful actions have been incorporated into the Housing Plan.
6. B6: Housing Resources and Site Inventory
Government Code Section 65583(a)(3) requires local governments to prepare an inventory of land suitable for residential development, including vacant sites and sites with the potential for redevelopment, and an analysis of the relationship between zoning and public facilities and services for these sites. The inventory of land suitable for residential development is used to identify sites that can be developed for housing within the planning period. The Site Inventory provides details on the land required to meet the City's RHNA goal of 3,017 housing units and assesses realistic development potential. The Site Inventory included in Atwater’s Housing Element demonstrates capacity for 3,822 housing units, a surplus of 805 units above the RHNA. This provides an adequate buffer if each site does not develop in the Sixth Cycle period.
7. B7 Housing Plan
The City must include programs in the Housing Element to implement its policies and achieve its goals. These programs, action steps, responsible departments,

timelines, and measurable outcomes form the Housing Plan.
Site Inventory
The Housing Element must demonstrate through the Site Inventory that the City has the capacity to meet its share of the RHNA. To meet the RHNA, the City identified planned and approved projects (projects already in the development process) that can be credited towards the City’s RHNA requirement. With anticipated pipeline projects, a total of 61 units can be credited.
Since the City did not identify enough units through the credits. The remaining 2,956 units would be accommodated through adequate sites planning on vacant lots. The City identified 121 opportunity sites to include in the Site Inventory to accommodate 1,315 lower-income units, 605 moderate-income units, and 1,295 above moderate-income units. The summary of the residential Site Inventory is presented in Table 2.
Housing Opportunity Sites refer to specific parcels of land identified by a city or county as suitable for residential development to accommodate projected housing needs, particularly for different income levels. These sites are included in the Site Inventory, a key component of the Housing Element required by California State law (Government Code Section 65583.2). The Site Inventory focuses residential development within or near existing communities with fewer infrastructure and services constraints to support higher-density multi-family development.

The Housing Element Update’s Site Inventory includes a Rezoning Program that would rezone 20 sites to facilitate additional residential development. These sites have been identified for rezoning in the Housing Element Site Inventory to allow for higher densities of multiple-family residential development and accommodate a portion of the RHNA.
The sites will be rezoned from low density residential, planned development, general commercial and business park zones to high-density residential with a maximum density of 43.56 dwelling units per acre. These sites encompass approximately 117 acres and can accommodate a total of 1,165 lower-income units, 551 moderate-income units, and 273 above moderate-income units. The Rezone Sites are listed in Table 3.

The proposed zoning map is included as Attachment 6. With rezoning, the Site Inventory includes a surplus of 21 lower-income units, allowing a two percent buffer for this income category above the RHNA requirement as well as a surplus of 97 moderate-income for a 19 percent buffer, and a surplus of 141 above moderate-income for 12 percent buffer. In total, the Site Inventory has identified sites to accommodate the development of 3,215 units, which is sufficient to meet the City’s RHNA and accommodate a buffer of units in the event development does not occur at the assumed densities by the end of the planning period. In order to rezone these sites, they will also need a General Plan Amendment to redesignate the land use from their current designation to High Density Residential. This will make the rezoning effort consistent with the General Plan.
By Right Ordinance
HCD requires adoption of a By Right Approval Ordinance to achieve Housing Element

certification. State housing element law requires that local jurisdictions adopt zoning and regulatory provisions that remove barriers to housing development on those sites.
As part of this statutory framework, Government Code Section 65583.2(c) requires jurisdictions to demonstrate that housing development on previously identified Housing Element sites can proceed without discretionary actions that would constrain or delay development. State law defines “by right approval” as a ministerial approval process under which qualifying housing developments are not subject to discretionary review or public hearings, provided the project complies with applicable objective development standards and required affordability criteria. This means that the following approvals and discretionary actions are not required for eligible projects:
1. Conditional Use Permit;
2. A Planned Unit Development Permit;
3. Design Review, except for review limited to compliance with Objective Development Design Standards; or
4. Any other discretionary review or approval that would constitute a “project” as defined in Section 21065 of the Public Resources Code (California Environmental Quality Act, “CEQA”).
The proposed Zoning Ordinance Text Amendment adds a new Section 17.12.250 (By-Right Approvals) to Title 17 of the Municipal Code. Under Section 17.12.250, the City shall implement by right development on sites identified in the City’s Fourth and Fifth Housing Element cycles when a developer proposes a housing project that includes at least 20 percent affordable units, deed-restricted for low-income and very low-income households.
The By Right Approval Ordinance is included as Attachment 5. The sites eligible for by-right approval are listed in Table 4:

Failure to adopt required by-right zoning provisions may result in a finding that the Housing Element is out of compliance with state law. Housing Element Certification affects the City’s eligibility for state housing and infrastructure funding.
Notice of Violation
The City’s 6th Cycle Housing Element was due on January 31, 2024. Staffing shortages and capacity constraints led to a delay in submitting a revised Housing Element Draft.
On March 24, 2026, HCD issued a Notice of Violation (Attachment 9) to the City. HCD determined that the City has not met the requirements of California Housing Element Law because it failed to adopt a compliant Housing Element by the required due date; and failed to submit a subsequent revised draft to HCD by the timelines provided by the City. HCD concluded the City is currently in violation of Housing Element Law under Government Code Section 65585. Since the letter was issued, the City submitted a revised draft on April 9, 2026.
Housing Element HCD Review History:
1. July 2, 2024: Initial draft submitted by the City.
2. September 30, 2024: HCD issued findings identifying multiple deficiencies.
3. March 14, 2025: Revised draft submitted.
4. May 8, 2025: HCD issued a second findings letter stating further revisions were required.
5. September–December 2025: Multiple requests by HCD for a revised timeline and draft, with City responses citing staffing and consultant challenges.
6. January 22, 2026: Proposed draft submittal date was missed.
7. April 9, 2026: Revised draft submittal
8. May 20, 2026: HCD issued preliminary findings
9. June 8, 2026: Revised draft submittal
10. June 9, 2026: HCD provided a letter of conditional substantial compliance
11. July 20, 2026: Revised draft submittal (City updated Site Inventory)

12. August 7, 2026: HCD provided a letter of conditional substantial compliance The City met with HCD on April 10, 2026, to discuss the notice. The notice identified significant consequences if noncompliance continues, including the loss or delay of eligibility for certain state housing and infrastructure funding programs, exposure to the Builder’s Remedy, and potential court-imposed penalties. These penalties may begin at $10,000 per month and increase up to $100,000 per month, with possible escalation and appointment of a court-ordered receiver for prolonged noncompliance. HCD has authority under state law to make formal findings that the City is out of compliance with Housing Element Law, to refer the matter to the California Office of the Attorney General, and to pursue enforcement actions if the City does not take timely steps toward compliance. To cure the violation, HCD emphasized that the City must address prior findings, release a revised Housing Element for public review, formally adopt the document, and submit it to HCD for certification, which the City did on April 9, 2026. A subsequent draft in response to HCD preliminary findings was submitted on June 8, 2026, and HCD sent a letter of conditional substantial compliance on June 9, 2026.
Subsequently, the City identified a mismatch between the City’s economic goals and the Site Inventory, so the City elected to revise the Housing Element Site Inventory. The City resubmitted the draft Housing Element on July 20, 2026. HCD sent a letter of conditional substantial compliance on August 7, 2026. This letter is Attachment 10.
Adoption of the Housing Element, Zoning Map Amendment, and Zoning Text Amendment will put the City in compliance with Housing Element Law and eliminate the risk of significant consequences.
II. FISCAL IMPACTS:
The Housing Element includes programs that must be implemented over the coming years related to housing production and monitoring. Many of these programs will be implemented through use of departmental budget (i.e., staff resources), while others will require other funding sources (grants, bonds, etc.). Due to the nature of a long-range planning program such as the Housing Element, actual funding needs have not been specifically identified at this time. However, staff will ensure that all available external funding sources are pursued. Approval of the General Plan Amendment to the Housing Element has no immediate fiscal impact on the City budget.

City of Atwater General Plan
The City of Atwater General Plan provides the policy framework for land use, housing, circulation, conservation, and community development within the City. State law requires each jurisdiction to update its Housing Element on an eight-year cycle and obtain certification from HCD. The City’s current Housing Element was adopted in 2017 and covers the 2014–2023 planning period. The Housing Element for the 2024–2032 planning period has been prepared to ensure compliance with State housing law and the City’s RHNA.
The proposed Zoning Map Amendment and Zoning Text Amendment implements Goal LU-8 of the General Plan Land Use Element, which supports the provision of housing, including affordable housing opportunities within the City.
Atwater Municipal Code
Title 17 of the Atwater Municipal Code establishes the City’s zoning regulations, including zoning districts, permitted land uses, development standards, and procedures for development. The City’s existing zoning map designates parcels for residential use at varying densities and intensities.
Pursuant to Government Code Sections 65860 and 65583, zoning regulations and zoning designations must be consistent with the adopted General Plan, including the Housing Element. Adoption of the proposed Zoning Map Amendment is intended to maintain internal consistency with the General Plan and the 2024–2032 Housing Element by aligning zoning designations with planned residential densities.
The proposed Zoning Text Amendment to Chapter 17.12, Administration and General Conditions, would establish a By-Right Approval Ordinance. The amendment is intended to implement Housing Element programs, comply with State housing law, and would not conflict with existing provisions of the Municipal Code or adopted General Plan policies.

community members to review and provide feedback on 2024-2032 Housing Element, including a community workshop, a community survey, and interviews with stakeholders and interested parties.
Community Survey: The City conducted a community survey to support the development of the Sixth Cycle Housing Element update. The survey was available online from March 27 through December 22, 2023, and was also distributed during various community outreach events. Comprising 16 questions, the survey featured a mix of formats, including checkboxes, ranking scales, and open-ended responses.
Popup Event: City staff set up a tabling event at the Atwater Town Hall at the Atwater Community Center on May 30, 2023. City staff handed out flyers with links to project website and survey to increase community awareness of the Housing Element process and encourage participation.
Community Workshops: There was one community workshop held regarding the Housing Element process, on the evening of August 28, 2023. The purpose of the workshop was to introduce the housing element process, discuss potential rezoning sites for the Site Inventory, and solicit feedback from the community and residents.
Stakeholder Interviews: Interviews were held between August 8, 2023, and August 23, 2023, with various groups including residents, non-profit organizations, and housing developers to receive more targeted input on the challenges and constraints of developing housing in Atwater. Additionally, the City held a virtual stakeholder interview on December 18, 2024, jointly with the cities of Dos Palos, Gustine, Livingston, and Los Banos.
In addition, the City developed a dedicated project website to publish project updates, document drafts, and public engagement opportunities (https://mercedmjhe.com/).
Drafts of the 2024-2032 Housing Element were publicized throughout the entire housing element update process, with public reviews occurring in May and September 2024, February 2025, and August 2025, June 2026, and July 2026. Community members were invited to submit comments on all drafts and comments received were reviewed and addressed within revised versions of the Housing Element.
On August 5, 2026, the City held a public hearing. A notice for that hearing was posted 20 days prior to the date of the hearing. The community was invited to comment on the actions. There were no negative responses from the public at that meeting. At that meeting the Planning Commission voted unanimously, with one Commissioner absent, to recommend the City Council approve all actions and adopt the Zoning Text Amendment, Zoning Map Amendment, General Plan Amendments, Addendum to the General Plan EIR and ultimately adopt the 6th Cycle Housing Element as reviewed and

approved by the State of California Department of Housing and Community Development.
VIII. ENVIRONMENTAL REVIEW:
An Addendum to the 2000 General Plan EIR was prepared to analyze potential changes in environmental effects associated with the Housing Element 2024-2032, Zoning Text Amendments, and Zoning Map Amendments and compares the potential environmental impacts to the environmental impacts analyzed in the 2000 General Plan EIR. The Addendum is provided as Attachment 8.
The focus of the analysis in the Addendum is changes in residential units and associated population that could occur as a result of the Housing Element 2024-2032, Zoning Text Amendments, and Zoning Map Amendments. As noted in the Addendum, the population growth resulting from the amendments would be within the assumed population buildout of 68,528 people analyzed in the 2000 General Plan EIR. The Addendum concludes that there are no substantial changes that will require major revisions to General Plan EIR due to the involvement of significant new environmental effects or a substantial increase in the severity of previously identified significant effects.
IX. STEPS FOLLOWING APPROVAL:
Submit approved housing element and Council approval documentation to the state of California HCD in accordance with state law for certification.

4 1.5 Project Description
The project consists of a comprehensive update to the City of Atwater’s Housing Element, Zoning Code Text Amendments, and Rezoning (hereinafter referred to as the “project” or “proposed project”) (herein referred to as “proposed project” or “project”) of the City’s General Plan.
Housing Element Update
The Housing Element is one of the seven General Plan elements required by State law (Government Code Section 65302). Unlike other General Plan elements, it is required by State law to be updated every eight years (California Government Code Section 65588). Each eight-year period is referred to as a “cycle.” For Atwater, the current (6th) cycle planning period runs from December 2024 through December 2032.
Regional Housing Needs Allocation (RHNA) and Site Inventory The RHNA reflects the California Department of Housing and Community Development’s determination of the projected housing needs in a region by household income level as a percent of the Area Median Income (AMI). The Merced County Association of Governments (MCAG) was tasked with allocating this regional housing need among the jurisdictions in the MCAG region, which includes the City of Atwater. Table 1 shows the breakdown of the RHNA for Atwater during the 2024-2032 planning period.

Above Moderate (>120% AMI) 1,215 40.3% 9,394 41.5%
Total 3,017 100% 22,620 100%
AMI = Area Median Income (established annually by the Department of Housing and Urban Development) *The RHNA does not project the need for extremely low-income units, but pursuant to Government Code (GC) Section 65583(a), the City must project its extremely low-income housing needs based on Census income distribution or assume 50 percent of the very lowincome units required by the RHNA as extremely low-income units. The City’s very low-income requirement is 768 units. The number of extremely low-income units that the City must plan for shown here was projected using Census data. According to the Comprehensive Housing Affordability Strategy (CHAS), data developed by HUD, 28.8 percent of households in the city earned less than 50 percent of the AMI. Among these households, 55.1 percent earned incomes below 30 percent (extremely low). Therefore, the City’s RHNA allocation of 768 very low-income units was distributed as 423 extremely low (55.1 percent of the 768 very low-income units required by the RHNA) and 345 very low-income units. However, for purposes of identifying adequate sites for the RHNA allocation, state law does not mandate the separate accounting for the extremely low-income category.

Introduction and Project Summary
State Clearinghouse Number 1999061027 5
Site Inventory
The Housing Element must demonstrate through the Site Inventory that the City has capacity to meet its share of the RHNA. Atwater’s share of the RHNA for the current planning period is 3,017 units, consisting of 1,294 lower-income housing units, 508 moderate-income housing units, and 1,215 above moderate-income housing units. The City must demonstrate the availability of sites with appropriate zoning and development standards that can facilitate and encourage the development of such units. The Housing Element Update includes a Site Inventory that accommodates Atwater’s share of the RHNA plus a buffer of additional housing units as recommended by the HCD. The Site Inventory identifies opportunity sites, which refer to parcels of land identified in a jurisdiction’s Housing Element site inventory as having realistic potential for residential development within the planning period.
The City would meet its RHNA through planned, approved, and pending projects projected to develop during the planning period and adequate sites identified in the Site Inventory, including opportunity sites.
PLANNED, APPROVED, AND PENDING PROJECTS
Jurisdictions may count planned, approved, and pending residential units as credits towards their RHNA. These units can be counted toward each income level according to demonstrated affordability, provided it can be demonstrated that the units can be built within the planning period.
As shown in Table 4, the City currently has two buildings that are pending construction, which may be credited towards the City’s RHNA.
ADUS
Jurisdictions may count the potential for ADU development as credits towards their RHNA.
Legislation in California has recently facilitated the increased permitting and production of ADUs in many communities. Since no ADU permits were recorded in Atwater during the previous planning period, ADUs are not assumed to contribute to the overall share of RHNA.

The City has not identified enough units through the credits described above (ADU development and pending, approved, or permitted projects) to meet the 6th Cycle RHNA for all categories.
Table 5 shows the City’s RHNA and housing unit yield per site category. Therefore, the City identified 101 opportunity sites and 20 rezone sites to include in the Site Inventory to accommodate 1,315 lower-income units, 605 moderate-income units, and 1,295 above moderate-income units. The summary of the residential Site Inventory is presented in Table 5 and shown in Figure 3.

Site Rezoning
As described above, the City identified 20 sites for rezoning to accommodate the shortfall of capacity once credits and opportunity sites were counted against the City’s share of the RHNA.
Rezone sites are located throughout the city, as shown in Figure 3. These sites encompass 135 acres and can accommodate a total of 1,989 units (1,165 low-income units, 551 moderate-income units, and 273 above moderate-income units). The sites would be rezoned from institutional, business park, general commercial, and planned development to low-density, medium-density, and highdensity residential. Site Rezoning requires General Plan Land Use Map Amendments and Zoning Map amendments to rezone the 20 sites as described in Table 4, below.

10 Zoning Text Amendment
The City of Atwater is updating its Zoning Code to establish a By-Right Approval Ordinance (new Section 17.12.250, By-Right Approvals). The ordinance will require ministerial approval for eligible affordable housing projects, and per State law, exempts those projects from CEQA. Codified under Government Code Sections 65583.2 and 65913.4, this applies to projects that include at least 20 percent of units affordable to low-income households on Housing Element inventory sites assumed to accommodate lower-income development and that are vacant and used in two prior Housing Element site inventories, or nonvacant and listed in one prior Housing Element site inventory. The ordinance brings the Zoning Code into compliance with State law, allowing projects to proceed without discretionary review and making them exempt from CEQA. Sites that are subject to by-right approval requirements are listed in Table 6, below. These sites are listed in the City’s 6th Cycle Housing Element Site Inventory and meet the criteria for reuse sites described above.

1.6 Discretionary Action
Implementation of the Project would require the following discretionary actions by the City of Atwater Planning Commission/City Council:
Approval of a General Plan Amendment to incorporate the 2024-2032 Housing Element Update Approval of a Zoning Code text amendment
Approval of a Zoning Map amendment
Consideration of this Addendum
The California Department of Housing and Community Development (HCD) reviews and certifies that the proposed Housing Element complies with State law. Aside from HCD, no other approvals by outside public agencies are required.

2 Project Context
The California Legislature has identified the attainment of a decent home and suitable living environment for every resident as the State’s major housing goal. Recognizing the important role of local planning programs in pursuing this goal, the legislature mandated that all cities and counties prepare a housing element as part of their comprehensive general plans. Government Code Sections 65580 to 65589.8 set forth the specific components to be contained in a community’s housing element.
2.1 Purpose of the Housing Element
The Housing Element is designed to provide the city with a coordinated and comprehensive strategy for promoting the production of safe, decent, and affordable housing within the community. A priority of both State and local governments, Government Code Section 65580 states that “the availability of housing is of vital statewide importance, and the early attainment of decent housing and a suitable living environment for every Californian family is a priority of the highest order.” Pursuant to State law, the Housing Element has two main purposes:
To provide an assessment of both current and future housing needs and constraints in meeting these needs, and
To provide a strategy that establishes housing goals, policies, and programs.
The Housing Element is one of eight General Plan elements the State mandates in Government Code Section 65302. The Housing Element serves as an integrated part of the General Plan but is updated more frequently to ensure its relevancy and accuracy. The Housing Element identifies strategies and programs that focus on:
Conserving and improving existing affordable housing;
Maximizing housing opportunities throughout the community; Assisting in the provision of affordable housing;
Removing governmental and other constraints to housing investment; and Promoting fair and equal housing opportunities.
The residential character of Atwater is largely determined by the variety, location, and maintenance of its housing. The Housing Element is an official response to the need to provide housing for all economic segments of the population, establishing goals, policies, and programs that will guide City decision making and set forth an action plan to implement these housing programs through the established planning period.
The Housing Element must identify residential sites adequate to accommodate a variety of housing types for all income levels and to meet the needs of special population groups as defined under State law (California Government Code Section 65583). The Housing Element analyzes market and governmental constraints to housing maintenance, improvement, and development; addresses conservation and improvement of the condition of existing affordable housing stock; and outlines policies that promote housing opportunities for all persons.

12 2.2 Changes in State Law
The following items represent substantive changes to State housing law since the City’s last Housing Element was adopted in May 2017. The Housing Element Update and Zoning Code Update has incorporated and addressed all pertinent housing law changes. Affordable Housing Streamlined Approval Process: Senate Bill (SB) 35 (2017) Additional Housing Element Sites Analysis Requirements: Assembly Bill (AB) 1397 (2017) Affirmatively Furthering Fair Housing: AB 686 (2017)

2.3 City of Atwater General Plan
State law mandates that each city and county in California adopt "a comprehensive, long-term general plan,” the purpose of which is to plan for important community issues such as new growth, housing needs, and environmental protection. Furthermore, the General Plan is used to project future demand for services such as sewer, water, roadways, parks, and emergency services.
The Atwater General Plan, adopted on July 24, 2000, is a long-term document with text and diagrams that express the goals, objectives, and policies necessary to guide the community toward achieving its vision over a 20-year period (2000 to 2020). The General Plan reflects the priorities and values of the community.
City decision-makers (e.g., City Council and Planning Commission), rely on the General Plan as the basis for making decisions on matters such as land use, and the provision of public facilities (e.g., roads, parks, fire stations). It is also a policy document that guides decisions related to protecting, enhancing, and providing open space, habitat conservation, arts and recreation programming, and community character.
State law requires that every General Plan, at a minimum, address certain subject categories (called "elements"), which include land use, circulation, housing, conservation of natural resources, environmental justice, open space, noise, and safety. A General Plan may also address other subjects that are of importance to the community" future, such as sustainability, community design, and public art. The 2000 General Plan includes the following elements (City of Atwater 2000a):
Land Use, Public Facilities, and Community Infrastructure Circulation
Open Space and Conservation
Seismic and Public Safety
Noise
Economic Development

2000 General Plan Buildout Assumptions
The 2000 General Plan has a planning horizon year of 2020, but it does not specify or anticipate exactly when buildout would occur, as long-range demographic and economic trends are difficult to predict. The designation of a site in the 2000 General Plan for a certain use does not necessarily mean that the site will be developed or redeveloped with that use during the planning period, as most development depends on property owner initiative.
The 2000 General Plan assumed a potential buildout of 22,842 new residential units. During the 20- year time frame, this new growth would increase the City’s population by 68,528 new residents (City of Atwater 2000b).
2.5 Buildout of Proposed Project and Comparison to
the 2000 General Plan EIR
The total buildout for the Project would be 3,215 units. As discussed above, new development under the General Plan was anticipated to result in an increase in the city’s population to 68,528 residents (City of Atwater 2000).
CEQA Baseline and Comparison to the General Plan EIR
The CEQA baseline for this analysis is the maximum allowable development for residential uses under the City’s General Plan EIR. The General Plan EIR assumed a buildout of 22,842 new residential units and 68,528 new residents (City of Atwater 2000). Table 4 compares the potential buildout under the Housing Element Update to the buildout contemplated in the General Plan EIR.
As described in the 2000 General Plan EIR and as shown in Table 4, Atwater had a population of 21,922 in 1998. As of 2024, Atwater currently has a population of 31,397 (DOF 2024). Therefore, actual population growth since certification of the 2000 General Plan EIR is 9,475 residents. The growth in Atwater occurred at a slower rate than was anticipated by the 2000 General Plan, and there is a remaining capacity of 12,365 housing units, or 37,131 persons, before the full anticipated General Plan buildout is reached.
The construction of new residential units anticipated by the proposed Project would increase the population by up to 9,808 residents based on a residential unit increase of 3,215 units multiplied by
3.09 persons per household (DOF 2024). Therefore, the proposed Project could increase the City’s population to 41,204 residents. The proposed Project, which anticipates the development of approximately 3,215 units and 9,834 residents, would not exceed the projected growth anticipated in the General Plan (68,528 new residents and 22,842 new residential units). As shown in Table 4, this increase is well within growth projections anticipated in the City of Atwater’s General Plan EIR.
The projected growth aligns with RHNA requirements and is consistent with regional housing expectation. Additionally, the Housing Element Update does not directly drive population growth, but rather aims to prepare for anticipated development within the region. The proposed Project is intended to assist the City in achieving the vision of the existing 2000 General Plan and provide the
Project Context
State Clearinghouse Number 1999061027 15
necessary housing units to accommodate the anticipated growth and assist the City in meeting its RHNA for the 6th Cycle Housing Element period.
Because the project would not exceed 2000 General Plan buildout projections, and because the 2000 General Plan EIR analyzed impacts associated with full General Plan buildout, the project would not be expected to result in new significant environmental effects or a substantial increase in the severity of previously identified significant effects. A full analysis of the potential for new or substantially more severe environmental effects is provided in Section 6 of this addendum.

16 3 Overview of CEQA Guidelines Sections
15162 and 15164
CEQA Guidelines Sections 15162 and 15164 set forth the criteria for determining the appropriate additional environmental documentation, if any, to be completed when a project has a previously certified EIR.
CEQA Guidelines Section 15164 states that a lead agency shall prepare an addendum to a previously certified EIR if some changes or additions are necessary, but none of the conditions described in Section 15162 calling for preparation of a subsequent EIR have occurred. CEQA Guidelines Section 15162(a) states that no Subsequent or Supplemental EIR shall be prepared for a project with a certified EIR unless the lead agency determines, based on substantial evidence in the light of the whole record, one or more of the following:
Substantial changes are proposed in the project that will require major revisions of the previous EIR due to the involvement of new significant environmental effects or a substantial increase in the severity of previously identified significant effects.
Substantial changes occur with respect to the circumstances under which the project is undertaken which will require major revisions of the previous EIR due to the involvement of new significant environmental effects or a substantial increase in the severity of previously identified significant effects.
New information of substantial importance, which was not known and could not have been known with the exercise of reasonable diligence at the time the previous EIR was certified as complete, shows any of the following:
A. The project will have one or more significant effects not discussed in the previous EIR.
B. Significant effects previously examined will be substantially more severe than shown in the previous EIR.
C. Mitigation measures or alternatives previously found not to be feasible would in fact be feasible and would substantially reduce one or more significant effects of the project, but the project proponents decline to adopt the mitigation measure or alternative.
D. Mitigation measures or alternatives that are considerably different from those analyzed in the previous EIR would substantially reduce one or more significant effects on the environment, but the project proponents decline to adopt the mitigation measure or alternative.
The analysis pursuant to Section 15162 demonstrates whether the lead agency can approve the activity as being within the scope of the existing certified EIR, that an addendum to the existing EIR would be appropriate, and no new environmental document, such as a new EIR, would be required.
The addendum need not be circulated for public review but can be included in or attached to the final EIR, and the decision-making body shall consider the addendum with the final EIR prior to deciding on the project.
According to CEQA Guidelines Section 15164, an addendum to a previously certified EIR is the appropriate environmental document in instances when “only minor technical changes or additions are necessary” and when the new information does not involve new significant environmental
Overview of CEQA Guidelines Sections 15162 and 15164
State Clearinghouse Number 1999061027 17
effects or a substantial increase in the severity of a significant effect beyond those identified in the previous EIR. CEQA Guidelines Section 15164 states that:
a. The lead agency or responsible agency shall prepare an addendum to a previously certified EIR if some changes or additions are necessary but none of the conditions described in Section 15162 calling for preparation of a subsequent EIR have occurred. b. An addendum to an adopted negative declaration may be prepared if only minor technical changes or additions are necessary or none of the conditions described in Section 15162 calling for the preparation of a subsequent EIR have occurred.
c. An addendum need not be circulated for public review but can be included in or attached to the final EIR.
d. The decision-making body shall consider the addendum with the final EIR prior to making a decision on the project.
e. A brief explanation of the decision not to prepare a subsequent EIR pursuant to Section 15162 should be included in an addendum to an EIR, the lead agency’s findings on the project, or elsewhere in the record.
The City has prepared this Addendum, pursuant to CEQA Guidelines Sections 15162 and 15164, to evaluate whether the project’s environmental impacts are covered by and within the scope of the 2000 General Plan EIR (July 2000, State Clearinghouse No. 1999061027). This Addendum details any changes in the project, changes in circumstances under which the project is undertaken, and/or "new information of substantial importance" that may cause one or more effects to environmental resources.
The analysis herein substantiates and supports the City’s determination that development facilitated by the project is within the scope of the 2000 General Plan EIR, does not require subsequent action under CEQA Guidelines Section 15162 and, in conjunction with the EIR, this Addendum adequately analyzes potential environmental impacts.

5 Addendum Evaluation Methodology
5.1 General Plan Consistency
The Project is a component of the 2000 General Plan and is periodically updated pursuant to state law. Therefore, the Housing Element Update is consistent with the vision of the General Plan and is supported by goals and policies of the other General Plan Elements. The General Plan Elements and policies that correspond with the goals and policies of the Housing Element are summarized below:
The Land Use, Public Facilities, and Community Infrastructure Element includes goals, objectives, policies, and standards for residential, commercial, industrial, recreational, and public and institutional development within Atwater; and goals, objectives, policies, and standards for public facilities and utilities. Additionally, it includes the General Plan Holding Capacity tables which provides estimates for buildout of residential and non-residential development under the 2000 General Plan.
The Circulation Element includes goals, objectives, policies, and standards for establishing a safe and efficient transportation system that provides adequate access throughout the city. The Open Space and Conservation Element includes goals, objectives, policies, and standards for preserving open space and protecting natural resources. The Seismic and Public Safety Element includes goals, objectives, policies, and standards for ensuring public health and safety and minimizing loss of life, injuries, and property damage due to hazards.
The Noise Element includes goals, objectives, policies, and standards for protecting residents from exposure to excessive noise. It also includes tables showing acceptable noise exposure levels and maximum noise levels not to be exceeded for transportation sources and stationary sources.
The Economic Development Element includes goals, objectives, policies, and standards for fostering economic stability and promoting economic growth. The Housing Element includes goals, objectives, policies, and standards for facilitating housing within the city and ensuring the city satisfies its RHNA numbers.
Adoption of the Housing Element Update will require the City to amend the Housing Element of the 2000 General Plan.
Accommodation of the RHNA
Atwater’s RHNA for the current planning period is 3,017 units, consisting of 1,294 very low- and lowincome housing units, 508 moderate-income housing units, and 1,215 above moderate-income housing units. The City must demonstrate the availability of sites with appropriate zoning and development standards that can facilitate and encourage the development of such units. The Housing Element Update includes a housing plan that accommodates the RHNA plus a buffer of additional housing units as recommended by the HCD. The City can satisfy 25 units of its RHNA requirement with planned and approved units. Since no ADU permits were recorded during the previous planning period, ADUs are not assumed to contribute to the overall share of RHNA. To achieve the remaining RHNA, the City has identified sites with appropriate zoning and development
City of Atwater
City of Atwater 2024-2032 Housing Element Update
22 standards that allow and encourage the development of the remaining 2,992 units required by the City’s RHNA assignment.
5.2 Preliminary Environmental Constraints
State housing law requires the city to review both governmental and non-governmental constraints to the maintenance and production of housing for all income levels. Since local governmental actions can restrict the development and increase the cost of housing, State law requires the Housing Element to “address and, where appropriate and legally possible, remove governmental constraints to the maintenance, improvement, and development of housing” (Government Code Section 65583[c][3]). Several factors can constrain residential development. These include market constraints, such as development costs and interest rates, and governmental constraints, which include land use controls, fees, processing times, and development standards, among others. In addition, environmental and infrastructure constraints can also impede residential development.
For purposes of the Addendum, only the potential environmental constraints, as they relate to CEQA, were evaluated.
Environmental constraints to residential development typically relate to the presence of sensitive habitat, flooding, topography, and other natural and physical characteristics that can limit the amount of development in an area or increase the cost of development. The Housing Element Update, in and of itself, does not propose specific development projects, but rather puts forth goals, policies, and programs that support housing efforts in Atwater. Future housing development projects would be subject to developmental review to determine potential impacts specific to that project site.

6 Addendum Evaluation
6.1 Aesthetics
General Plan EIR Findings
Aesthetics are addressed in Appendix A of the General Plan EIR. The General Plan EIR determined that implementation of the General Plan would have less than significant impacts related to scenic vistas, scenic resources, visual character or quality, and light and glare.
Addendum Analysis
The Housing Element Update would accommodate anticipated population growth associated with the City’s RHNA allocation. As discussed in Section 2.7, Buildout of Proposed Project and Comparison to the 2000 General Plan EIR, buildout of the proposed project is within the buildout projections analyzed in the General Plan EIR. The Zoning Code Update and Zoning Map Amendment would not involve result in any physical development.
The City of Atwater does not identify any officially designated scenic vistas within its boundaries.
The nearest officially designated state scenic highway is Interstate 5 (I-5), located approximately 27 miles west of the city.
Because it is a policy document, the Housing Element Update would not, in and of itself, result in impacts to aesthetics or visual resources. Development of housing consistent with the Housing Element Update could result in the construction of denser and taller development which could potentially result in impacts to aesthetics. However, future development facilitated by the proposed project would undergo project-specific developmental review, including design review, and would be subject to adopted development regulations, including standards that govern visual quality and community design. Future projects would also be required to comply with State and local regulations such as the California Scenic Highway Program, Title 17 of the City of Atwater Municipal Code detailing the height requirements of zoning districts, and Goal CO-10 of the General Plan’s Open Space and Conservation Element, which encourages the enhancement and protection of the City’s scenic resources.
The Housing Element Update anticipates the development of residential buildings within city limits, which was previously considered in the General Plan EIR. The Zoning Code Update would exempt certain housing projects from further CEQA review, and would prohibit any discretionary review, which could result in some of the City’s discretionary development standards or guidelines not being applied to a qualifying project. However, these limitations are already required under state law, so the Zoning Code Update does not result in any new impacts to aesthetics. The proposed project does not introduce development in areas inconsistent with these prior assumptions, with the exception of annexation sites located outside city limits and currently planned for agricultural use, which would be subject to additional review and compliance with applicable local, state, and federal regulations at the time when annexation is proposed. With compliance with existing regulations, impacts related to aesthetics would be less than significant.
Conclusion
The Project would not result in aesthetics impacts beyond those addressed or analyzed in the General Plan EIR, nor present new information that shows impacts would be more significant than
City of Atwater
City of Atwater 2024-2032 Housing Element Update
24 those described in the General Plan EIR. Therefore, the General Plan EIR applies to the Project and no additional environmental assessment of aesthetics is required.
6.2 Agriculture and Forestry Services
General Plan EIR Findings
Agriculture and forestry resources are discussed in Section 4.1, Land Use (pages 4.1-37 through 4.1- 39) and Appendix A of the General Plan EIR. As discussed therein, it was determined that the proposed project’s impact on agricultural operations would be less than significant with the implementation of Mitigation Measures 4.1-3a and 4.1-3b, which require disclosures to potential new property owners of land adjacent to agricultural land and the consideration of natural or manmade buffers between agricultural and residential land. The General Plan EIR determined that the proposed project would have a significant and unavoidable impact on the conversion of agricultural land to non-agricultural uses, despite implementation of policies in the General Plan. The General Plan EIR found no impact related to conflicts with Williamson Act contracts.
Addendum Analysis
The Housing Element Update would accommodate anticipated population growth associated with the City’s RHNA allocation. As discussed in Section 2.7, Buildout of Proposed Project and Comparison to the 2000 General Plan EIR, buildout of the proposed project is within the buildout projections analyzed in the General Plan EIR. The Zoning Code Update and Zoning Map Amendment would not result in any physical development.
While the General Plan EIR identified potentially significant agricultural and forestry impacts, the proposed project would not facilitate housing development on any lands currently designated as farmland, forestland, or timberland within the city (California Department of Conservation 2024).
The annexation sites located outside city limits are currently designated for agricultural use, and future development and annexation of these sites would be subject to additional review and compliance with applicable local, state, and federal regulations to ensure the preservation of important agricultural resources at the time when annexation is proposed. Additionally, the project would be consistent with goals and policies included in the General Plan intended to reduce impacts to agricultural lands, such as goals LU-6, LU-9, LU-10, LU-12, LU-13, LU-16, and CO-4; policies LU-6.1, LU-6.2, LU-9.1, LU-9.2, LU-10.2, LU-10.3, LU-12.1, LU-13.1, LU-14.1, LU-14.2, LU-15.3, LU-16.1, and CO-4.1; and programs LU-6.a, LU-9.a, LU-10.a, LU-12.a, LU-13.a, LU-14.a, and CO-4.a. Future development would also be subject to the requirements of Mitigation Measures 4.1-3a and 4.1-3b.
The Project would increase residential densities on identified sites, thereby reducing the need for conversion of agricultural land to accommodate additional housing units.
Because the Project would not facilitate development beyond what was considered in the General Plan EIR, the project would not result in new significant environmental effects or a substantial increase in the severity of previously identified significant effects.
Conclusion
The proposed Project would not result in agricultural and forestry impacts beyond those addressed or analyzed in the General Plan EIR nor present new information that shows impacts would be more significant than those described in the General Plan EIR. Therefore, the General Plan EIR applies to
Addendum Evaluation
State Clearinghouse Number 1999061027 25
the proposed Project and no additional environmental assessment of agriculture and forestry is required.
6.3 Air Quality
General Plan EIR Findings
Air quality is addressed in Section 4.5 of the General Plan EIR. The General Plan EIR determined that construction of future development under the General Plan would potentially result in PM10 emissions above the identified significance threshold; however, with the implementation of Mitigation Measure 4.5-1a, which requires the implementation of best practices during grading and construction activities, this impact would be reduced to less than significant. The General Plan EIR determined that operation would increase total criteria air pollutant emissions in the region, resulting in a significant and unavoidable impact, despite the implementation of Mitigation Measure
4.5-2a, which requires operational air quality emission reductions.
Addendum Analysis
The Housing Element Update would accommodate anticipated population growth associated with the City’s RHNA allocation. As discussed in Section 2.7, Buildout of Proposed Project and Comparison to the 2000 General Plan EIR, buildout of the proposed project is within the buildout projections analyzed in the General Plan EIR. The Zoning Code Update does not involve any physical development. The Zoning Map amendment does not change the development potential of the rezoned sites and does not result in any new impacts to air quality.
Because the Housing Element Update would not facilitate development beyond what was considered in the General Plan EIR, the project would not result in new significant environmental effects or a substantial increase in the severity of previously identified significant effects. Future development facilitated by the proposed project would undergo project-specific developmental review and would be required to comply with existing policies and regulations, including General Plan goals CO-3 and SF-7; policies CO-3.1, CO-3.3, SF-7.1, and SF-7.2; and programs CO-3.a, CO-3.b, CO-3.c, and SF-7.a. Future development would also be subject to the requirements of Mitigation Measure 4.5-1a and Mitigation Measure 4.5-2a.
Because the Project would not facilitate development beyond what was considered in the General Plan EIR, the Project would not result in new significant environmental effects or a substantial increase in the severity of previously identified significant effects.
Conclusion
The Project would not result in air quality impacts beyond those addressed or analyzed in the General Plan EIR, nor present new information that shows impacts would be more significant than those described in the General Plan EIR. Therefore, the General Plan EIR applies to the Project, and no additional environmental assessment of air quality is required.
City of Atwater
City of Atwater 2024-2032 Housing Element Update
26 6.4 Biological Resources
General Plan EIR Findings
Biological resources are addressed in Section 4.8 and Appendix A of the General Plan EIR. The General Plan EIR determined that future development facilitated by the General Plan would result in less than significant impacts to sensitive plant and animal species through implementation of objectives, policies, and standards, included in the General Plan. The General Plan EIR also determined that future development facilitated by the General Plan would result in less than significant impacts to wetlands and other sensitive habitats with the implementation of General Plan goals and policies and Mitigation Measures 4.8-2a and 4.8-2b, which require a wetlands delineation study and rehabilitation and/or replacement of wetlands on a “no net loss” basis. The General Plan EIR determined less than significant impacts to migration corridors. The General Plan EIR determined that there would be no impacts related to conflicts with local policies or ordinances and conflicts with adopted habitat conservation plans.
Addendum Analysis
The Housing Element Update would accommodate anticipated population growth associated with the City’s RHNA allocation. As discussed in Section 2.7, Buildout of Proposed Project and Comparison to the 2000 General Plan EIR, buildout of the proposed Project is within the buildout projections analyzed in the General Plan EIR. The Zoning Code Update and Zoning Map Amendment would not result in any physical development.
Future development proposed as a result of the Housing Element Update would be subject to project-specific environmental review and would be required to adhere to policies in the General Plan, including goals CO-5 and CO-6; policies CO-5.1, CO-6.1, and CO-6.2; and programs CO-5.a and CO-6.2a. Furthermore, future development would be required to comply with adopted federal, state, and local regulations protecting biological resources, including Mitigation Measures 4.8-2a and 4.8-2b. The areas identified for potential development under the Housing Element Update align with the land area previously considered under the General Plan, with the exception of the annexation sites located outside city limits. These annexation sites, while not within the original General Plan boundaries, have been identified for potential development and would similarly be subject to environmental review to ensure consistency with applicable regulations and the General Plan's buildout at the time when annexation is proposed.
Because the Housing Element would not facilitate development beyond what was considered in the General Plan EIR, the project would not result in new significant environmental effects or a substantial increase in the severity of previously identified significant effects.
Conclusion
The Project would not result in biological resource impacts beyond those addressed or analyzed in the General Plan EIR nor present new information that shows impacts would be more significant than those described in the General Plan EIR. Therefore, the General Plan EIR applies to the project and no additional environmental assessment of biological resources is required.
Addendum Evaluation
State Clearinghouse Number 1999061027 27
6.5 Cultural Resources
General Plan EIR Findings
Cultural resources are addressed in Section 4.9 of the General Plan EIR. The General Plan EIR determined that future development facilitated by the General Plan would result in less than significant impacts to cultural and archaeological resources with implementation of the General Plan’s goals and policies along with Mitigation Measures 4.9-1a and 4.9-1b, which require retaining a qualified archaeologist, stopping work and notifying the County Coroner if human remains are discovered.
Addendum Analysis
The Housing Element Update would accommodate anticipated population growth associated with the City’s RHNA allocation. As discussed in Section 2.7, Buildout of Proposed Project and Comparison to the 2000 General Plan EIR, buildout of the proposed project is within the buildout projections analyzed in the General Plan EIR. The Zoning Code Update and Zoning Map Amendment would not result in any physical development.
Future development facilitated by the Housing Element Update would undergo project-specific developmental review and be required to adhere to all state and federal regulations to reduce impacts to cultural resources, including Mitigation Measures 4.9-1a and 4.9-1b. The Housing Element Update anticipates the development of residential buildings within the city limits, which was previously considered in the General Plan EIR. The proposed project does not introduce development in areas inconsistent with these prior assumptions, except for annexation sites located outside city limits and currently planned for agricultural use, which would be subject to additional review and compliance with applicable local, state, and federal regulations at the time when annexation is proposed.
Because the Housing Element would not facilitate development beyond what was considered in the General Plan EIR, the project would not result in new significant environmental effects or a substantial increase in the severity of previously identified significant effects.
Conclusion
The proposed Project would not result in cultural resource impacts beyond those addressed or analyzed in the General Plan EIR nor present new information that shows impacts would be more significant than those described in the General Plan EIR. Therefore, the General Plan EIR applies to the proposed Project and no additional environmental assessment of cultural resources is required.
6.6 Energy
General Plan EIR Findings
The General Plan EIR does not include a discussion of energy impacts, and such a discussion was not required under the CEQA Guidelines Appendix G checklist at the time the report was prepared.
Though not technically required as part of an addendum, a discussion of energy impacts is provided herein to ensure completeness of the environmental analysis for the Housing Element Update project.
City of Atwater
City of Atwater 2024-2032 Housing Element Update
28 Addendum Analysis
The Housing Element Update would accommodate anticipated population growth associated with the City’s RHNA allocation. As discussed in Section 2.7, Buildout of Proposed Project and Comparison to the 2000 General Plan EIR, buildout of the proposed Project is within the buildout projections analyzed in the General Plan EIR. The Zoning Code Update and Zoning Map Amendment would not result in any physical development.
Future development facilitated by the Housing Element Update would involve the consumption of non-renewable energy resources such as electricity, natural gas, propane, gasoline, and diesel.
Future projects would be required to adhere to applicable regulations and General Plan policies and actions related to energy resources, including Goal CO-7 and Policies CO-7.1 and 7.2, which encourage efficient energy usage. Additional regulations that future development would be subject to include California Code of Regulations (CCR) Title 20, Division 2, Chapter 4, Energy Conservation; CCR Title 24, Part 6, California Energy Code; and CCR Title 24, Part 11, California Green Building Standards Code, Tier 1. These regulations include requirements for the use of more energy-efficient design and technologies as well as the incorporation of more renewable energy resources into building design.
Because the Housing Element would not facilitate development beyond what was considered in the General Plan EIR, the project would not result in new significant environmental effects or a substantial increase in the severity of significant effects. The Housing Element Update, in and of itself, does not propose specific projects but puts forth goals and policies that regulate various aspects of new housing development in Atwater. Because it is a policy document, the Housing Element update would not, in and of itself, result in impacts to energy resources. With compliance with existing regulations, impacts related to wasteful, inefficient, or unnecessary consumption of energy resources would be less than significant.
Conclusion
The proposed project would not result in energy impacts compared to the buildout analyzed in the General Plan EIR nor present new information that shows impacts would be more significant.
Therefore, the General Plan EIR applies to the proposed project and no additional environmental assessment of energy is required.
6.7 Geology and Soils
General Plan EIR Findings
Geology and soils are addressed in Section 4.7 and Appendix A of the General Plan EIR. The General Plan EIR determined that impacts associated with seismic events and subsidence would be less than significant with the implementation of General Plan policies. The General Plan EIR determined less than significant impacts related to ground shaking and expansive soils. The General Plan EIR determined that impacts associated with erosion would be less than significant with the implementation of General Plan goals and policies and Mitigation Measures 4.5.1a, 4.5-2a, and 4.6- 3a, which require implementing dust control practices, utilizing energy-efficient and low-emission equipment, promoting alternative transportation and energy efficiency, adhering to NPDES permit requirements, and employing best management practices to manage stormwater and reduce water quality degradation. The General Plan EIR found less than significant impacts associated with
Addendum Evaluation
State Clearinghouse Number 1999061027 29
rupture of a known fault and landslides. The General Plan EIR determined there would be no impact related to soils incompatible with the use of septic tanks.
The General Plan EIR discussed paleontological resources in Section 4.9, Cultural Resources (page
4.9-7 of the EIR). The General Plan EIR determined impacts to paleontological resources would be less than significant.
Addendum Analysis
The Housing Element Update would accommodate anticipated population growth associated with the City’s RHNA allocation. As discussed in Section 2.7, Buildout of Proposed Project and Comparison to the 2000 General Plan EIR, buildout of the proposed project is within the buildout projections analyzed in the General Plan EIR. The Zoning Code Update and Zoning Map Amendment would not result in any physical development.
Individual projects under the Housing Element Update would undergo project-specific developmental review, including design review, and would be subject to adopted development regulations such as the California Building Code, International Building Code’s regulations, the City of Atwater Municipal Code Chapter 15.08, the goals and policies in the General Plan’s Seismic and Public Safety Element, and standards regarding seismic safety of buildings and structures. Future development would also be required to adhere to policies in the General Plan, including goals SF-1, SF-2, and SF-3; policies SF-1.1, SF-2.1, and SF-3.1; and program SF-3.a. Additionally, development facilitated by the proposed Project would be subject to compliance with Mitigation Measures 4.5.1a,
4.5-2a, and 4.6-3a included in the General Plan EIR. Adherence to applicable regulations would ensure that the Project would not result in increased impacts related to geology and soils.
Because the Project would not facilitate development beyond what was considered in the General Plan EIR, the project would not result in new significant environmental effects or a substantial increase in the severity of previously identified significant effects.
Conclusion
The proposed Project would not result in geology and soils impacts beyond those addressed or analyzed in the General Plan EIR nor present new information that shows impacts would be more significant than those described in the General Plan EIR. Therefore, the General Plan EIR applies to the proposed project and no additional environmental assessment of geology and soils is required.
6.8 Greenhouse Gas Emissions
General Plan EIR Findings
The General Plan EIR does not include a discussion of greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions, and such a discussion was not required under the CEQA Guidelines Appendix G checklist at the time the report was prepared. Though not technically required as part of an addendum, a discussion of GHG emission impacts is provided herein to ensure completeness of the environmental analysis for the Project.
Addendum Analysis
The Housing Element Update is a policy document consistent with the General Plan. Because it is a policy document, the Housing Element Update would not, in and of itself, result in impacts to GHG
City of Atwater
City of Atwater 2024-2032 Housing Element Update
30 emissions or adopted plans for the purpose of reducing GHGs. The Zoning Code Update and Zoning Map Amendment would not result in any physical development. Future development consistent with the Housing Element Update would be required to adhere to applicable climate and GHG emissions policies and regulations, including consistency with GHG reduction targets established by SB 32, AB 32, SB 97, and SB 375. Furthermore, the proposed Project would increase density within the city to accommodate planned growth, which would reduce vehicle miles travelled (VMT) and therefore reduce GHG emissions by promoting the creation of housing in areas near transit and other necessary services. With compliance with existing regulations, impacts related to GHG emissions would be less than significant. Future development facilitated by the Project would undergo project-specific developmental review and would be required to adhere to building standards and policies designed to reduce GHG emissions with new residential construction, such as CCR Title 20, Division 2, State Energy Resources Conservation and Development Commission; and CCR Title 24, Part 11, California Green Building Standards Code, Tier 1.
Conclusion
The Project would not result in GHG emission impacts beyond those addressed or analyzed in the General Plan EIR nor present new information that shows impacts would be more significant than those described in the General Plan EIR. Therefore, the General Plan EIR applies to the proposed Project and no additional environmental assessment of GHG emissions is required.
6.9 Hazards and Hazardous Materials
General Plan EIR Findings
Hazards and hazardous materials are addressed in Section 4.2 and Appendix A of the General Plan EIR. The General Plan EIR determined that implementation of the General Plan would result in less than significant impacts to potentially exposing people or property to existing hazardous materials with the implementation of General Plan goals and policies and Mitigation Measure 4.2-1a, which requires an inspection by a qualified environmental professional for all development applications which may be associated with hazardous materials or known to have site contamination. The General Plan EIR also determined that the proposed General Plan would result in less than significant impacts to land uses that involve the generation, transportation, or storage of hazardous materials through the implementation of General Plan goals and policies. The General Plan EIR determined that there would be less than significant impacts related to emissions near schools, and found no impacts related to listed Government Code 65962.5 sites, safety hazards near airports, impairment of an emergency operations plan, and wildland fires.
Addendum Analysis
The Housing Element Update would accommodate anticipated population growth associated with the City’s RHNA allocation. As discussed in Section 2.7, Buildout of Proposed Project and Comparison to the 2000 General Plan EIR, buildout of the proposed Project is within the buildout projections analyzed in the General Plan EIR. The Zoning Code Update and Zoning Map Amendment would not result in any physical development.
Individual projects under the Housing Element Update would undergo project-specific developmental review, including design review, and would be subject to adopted federal, state, and local regulations, including Mitigation Measure 4.2-1a from the General Plan EIR. Future development would also be required to adhere to policies in the General Plan, including goal SF-9;

policies SF-9.1, SF-9.2, and SF-9.3; and programs SF-9.a and SF-9.b. Furthermore, because the Project would not facilitate development beyond what was considered in the General Plan EIR, the project would not result in new significant environmental effects or a substantial increase in the severity of previously identified significant effects.
Conclusion
The Project would not result in hazards and hazardous materials impacts beyond those addressed or analyzed in the General Plan EIR nor present new information that shows impacts would be more significant than those described in the General Plan EIR. Therefore, the General Plan EIR applies to the proposed Project and no additional environmental assessment of hazards and hazardous materials is required.
6.10 Hydrology and Water Quality
General Plan EIR Findings
Hydrology and water quality is addressed in Section 4.6 and Appendix A of the General Plan EIR. The General Plan EIR determined that drainage and surface water runoff impacts would be less than significant with implementation of General Plan goals and policies in addition to Mitigation Measure
4.6-1a, which requires individual project applicants to demonstrate that storm drainage infrastructure is available to serve the project. The General Plan EIR determined that impacts related to exposing people to flood hazards would be less than significant with the implementation of the General Plan goals and policies. The General Plan EIR also determined that impacts to surface and groundwater quality would be less than significant with implementation of General Plan goals and policies in addition to Mitigation Measure 4.6-3a, which requires erosion control plans. The General Plan EIR determined less than significant impacts related to 100-year flood hazards and no impact related to inundation by seiche, tsunami, or mudflow.
Addendum Analysis
The Housing Element Update would accommodate anticipated population growth associated with the City’s RHNA allocation. As discussed in Section 2.7, Buildout of Proposed Project and Comparison to the 2000 General Plan EIR, buildout of the proposed project is within the buildout projections analyzed in the General Plan EIR. The Zoning Code Update and Zoning Map Amendment would not result in any physical development.
Individual projects under the Housing Element Update would undergo project-specific developmental review, including design review, and would be subject to adopted regulations.
Future development would also be required to adhere to policies in the General Plan, including goals LU-24, LU-25, SF-4, CO-1, and CO-2; policies LU-24.1, LU-25.1, SF-4.1, CO-1.1, CO-1.2, CO-2.1, and CO-2.2; and programs LU-24.a, LU-25.a, SF-4.a, SF-4.b, SF-4.c, CO-1.a, and CO-2.a. Additionally, development facilitated by the proposed Project would be required to comply with Mitigation Measures 4.6-1a and 4.6-3a included in the General Plan EIR.
Because the Project would not facilitate development beyond what was considered in the General Plan EIR, the Project would not result in new significant environmental effects or a substantial increase in the severity of previously identified significant effects.
