CITY OF BARSTOW

INVESTMENT POLICY
June 17, 2024

3.a
Packet Pg. 10
Attachment: FY25 Investment Policy with Cover (5965 : Treasurer's Report) 1 STATEMENT OF INVESTMENT POLICY
FY 2024-25
I. GENERAL INTRODUCTION
Under the laws of the State of California, it is the responsibility of the City Treasurer, at the direction of the City Council, to secure and protect the public funds of the City, and to establish proper safeguards, controls, and procedures to maintain these funds in a lawful, rational and auspicious manner. Said maintenance shall include the prudent and secure investment of those funds that are deemed temporarily excess, in a manner anticipated to provide additional benefit to the people of the City of Barstow.

This Statement of Investment Policy will be provided annually for the review and approval of the City Council in an open public meeting. It will be provided to securities dealers, banks, and brokers currently approved for conducting investment transactions with the City Treasurer’s office in the ongoing effort to manage the excess cash portfolio; to other affected persons or entities; and to any member of the electorate wishing to review this document upon request. The Treasurer reserves the right to provide these documents on a cost basis.

II. SCOPE
This Statement of Investment Policy pertains to those temporarily surplus funds under the control of the Treasurer, designated for the daily ongoing operations of the City; and concerns the deposit, maintenance, safekeeping, and preservation of all such funds, and the investments made with these funds. This Policy does not apply to pension trust funds, deferred compensation funds, and certain other trust or non-operating funds.

III. PURPOSE
The purpose of this Statement of Investment Policy is to provide the City Council, and those involved in servicing the investment requirements of the City, and any other interested party, a clear understanding of the regulations and internal guidelines that will be observed in maintaining and investing those pooled funds deemed temporarily excess. This statement is intended to provide guidelines for the prudent investment of the City's temporary idle cash, and outline the procedures for maximizing the efficiency of the City's cash management system. The ultimate goal is to enhance the economic status of the City while safeguarding its assets.

IV. OBJECTIVE
The City's cash management system is designed to accurately monitor and forecast revenues and expenditures, thus enabling the City to invest funds to the fullest extent possible. The City attempts to obtain the highest yield possible only after the criteria established for safety and liquidity have been met. The City of Barstow operates its pooled idle cash investments with judgment and care, under circumstances then prevailing, which persons of prudence, discretion and intelligence exercise in the management of their own affairs, not for speculation, but for

3.a
Packet Pg. 11
Attachment: FY25 Investment Policy with Cover (5965 : Treasurer's Report) 2 investment, considering the probable safety of their capital as well as the probable income to be derived.

This affords the City a broad spectrum of investment opportunities as long as the investment is deemed prudent and is allowable under current legislation of the State of California Government Code Section 53600 et seq. and the general laws of the City of Barstow. Further, the City Treasurer shall comply with all laws governing the deposit and securing of public funds and the handling of trust funds in his or her possession. In addition, if the City has issued bonds, the Treasurer shall use a system of accounting and auditing that adheres to generally accepted accounting principles.

The City of Barstow strives to maintain the level of investment of all idle funds as near 100% as possible, through daily and projected cash flow determinations. Idle cash management and investment transactions are the responsibility of the Treasurer or his/her designee.

Criteria for selecting investments and the order of priority are:

1. Safety: The safety and risk associated with an investment refers to the potential loss of principal, interest, or a combination of these amounts. The City only operates in those investments that are considered very safe.

2. Liquidity: This refers to the ability to "cash in" at any moment in time with a minimal chance of losing some portion of principal or interest.

3. Yield: Yield is the potential dollar earnings an investment can provide, and sometimes is referred to as the rate of return.

4. Safekeeping: Securities purchased shall be held in third party safekeeping in the Trust Department of a financial institution, in the City's name and control. The account established shall be protected from seizure by creditors should the financial institution holding the City's securities file for bankruptcy protection. The basic premise underlying the City's investment philosophy is and continues to be, to insure that surplus funds are always safe and available when needed.

V. DELEGATION OF INVESTMENT AUTHORITY
Authority to manage the City of Barstow's investment program is derived from City of Barstow Council Resolution No. ______-2024. Management responsibility for the investment program is hereby delegated for Fiscal Year 2024-25 to the City Treasurer or his/her designee, who shall establish written procedures for the operation of the investment program consistent with this Investment Policy. Procedures should include references to: safekeeping, repurchase agreements, wire transfer agreements, banking service contracts, and collateral/ depository agreements. Such procedures shall include explicit delegation of authority to persons responsible for investment transactions. No person may engage in an investment transaction except as provided under the terms of this policy and the procedures established by the City Treasurer or his/her designee. The City Treasurer or his/ her designee shall be responsible for all transactions undertaken and shall establish a system of controls to regulate the activities of subordinate officials.

3.a
Packet Pg. 12
Attachment: FY25 Investment Policy with Cover (5965 : Treasurer's Report) 3 VI. STANDARD OF PRUDENCE
The Treasurer shall perform the investment function in conjunction with the “Prudent Man Rule.” This rule states, in principle that whenever investing property for the benefit of others, a trustee shall exercise the judgment and care, under circumstances then prevailing that persons of prudence, discretion, and intelligence, would exercise in the management of their own affairs not in regard to speculation, but in regard to the permanent disposition of their funds, considering the probability of safety of, as well as the probable income from their capital. The Treasurer and his designees are considered to have a fiduciary, trustee, relationship with the public for the public funds and all investment decisions will be made in a manner sustaining this responsibility.

VII. AUTHORIZED INVESTMENTS
The California Government Code allows the City to invest in the following media:

Securities of the U.S. Government, or its government sponsored agencies Small Business Administration loans
Certificates of deposit, placed with commercial banks and savings and loan companies Negotiable certificates of deposit
Bankers’ acceptances
Commercial paper
Corporate notes and bonds, including medium term notes
State of California Local Agency Investment Fund
Repurchase agreements
Reverse repurchase agreements
Passbook savings account demand deposits
County Treasurer demand deposits
Asset-backed and mortgage-backed securities
Money market mutual funds
As a matter of practice, however, the City of Barstow generally limits its investments to the following vehicles:

U.S. Treasury Bills - Issued weekly with maturity dates up to one year. They are issued and traded on a discount basis with interest figured on a 360-day basis, actual number of days. They are issued in amounts of $10,000 and up, in multiples of $5,000. They are a highly liquid security.

3.a
Packet Pg. 13
Attachment: FY25 Investment Policy with Cover (5965 : Treasurer's Report) 4 U.S. Treasury Notes - Initially issued with two- to ten-year maturities. They are actively traded in a large secondary market and are very liquid. The Treasury may issue Note issues with a minimum of $1,000; however, the average minimum is $5,000.

Agency/Government Sponsored Enterprise Issues - Guaranteed directly or indirectly by the United States Government. All agency/GSE obligations qualify as legal investments and are acceptable as security for public deposits.

These securities usually provide higher yields than U.S. Treasury securities with generally all of the same advantages in terms of safety and liquidity. Examples include:

FICBs (Federal Intermediate Credit Bank Debentures) - Loans to lending institutions used to finance the short-term and intermediate needs of farmers, such as seasonal production. These securities are usually issued monthly in minimum denominations of $3,000 with a nine-month maturity. Interest is payable at maturity and is calculated on a 360-day, 30-day month basis.

FFCBs (Federal Farm Credit Bank) - Debt instruments used to finance the short and intermediate term needs of farmers and the national agricultural industry. They are issued monthly with threeand six-month maturities. The FFCB issues larger issues (one to ten year) on a periodic basis.

These issues are highly liquid.

FLBs (Federal Land Bank Bonds) - Long-term mortgage credit provided to farmers by Federal Land Banks. These bonds are issued at irregular times for various maturities ranging from a few months to ten years. The minimum denomination is $1,000. They carry semi-annual coupons.

Interest is calculated on a 360-day, 30-day month basis.

FHLBs (Federal Home Loan Bank Notes and Bonds) - Issued by the Federal Home Loan Bank System to help finance the housing industry. The notes and bonds provide liquidity and home mortgage credit to savings and loan associations, mutual savings banks, cooperative banks, insurance companies, and mortgage-lending institutions. They are issued irregularly for various maturities. The minimum denomination is $5,000. The notes are issued with maturities of less than one year and interest is paid at maturity. The bonds are issued with various maturities and carry semi-annual coupons. Interest is calculated on a 360-day, 30-day month basis.

FNMAs (Federal National Mortgage Association) - Used to assist the home mortgage market by purchasing mortgages insured by the Federal Housing Administration and the Farmers Home Administration, as well as those guaranteed by the Veterans Administration. They are issued about four times a year for maturities ranging from a few months to eight years. They are issued in minimum denominations of $10,000. They carry semi-annual coupons. Interest is computed on a 360-day, 30-day month basis.

FHLMCs (Federal Home Loan Mortgage Corporation) - A government-sponsored enterprise established to develop the secondary market for conventional home mortgages. Mortgages are purchased solely from the Federal Home Loan Bank System member lending institutions whose deposits are insured by agencies of the United States Government. They are issued for various maturities and in minimum denominations of $10,000. Interest is paid semi-annually and is calculated on a 360-day, 30-day month basis.

Other federal agency issues are Small Business Administration notes (SBAs), Government National Mortgage Association notes (GNMAs), and Tennessee Valley Authority notes (TVAs).

3.a
Packet Pg. 14
Attachment: FY25 Investment Policy with Cover (5965 : Treasurer's Report) 5 As a matter of practice, the City does not invest in these issues as they do not suit our purposes as well as other investment opportunities available.

The City limits its investments to no more than 60% of its surplus funds in any one Federal Agency.

Bankers’ Acceptances - Short-term credit arrangements to enable businesses to obtain funds to finance commercial transactions. They are time drafts drawn on a bank by an exporter or importer to obtain funds to pay for specific merchandise. By its acceptance, the bank becomes primarily liable for the payment of the draft at its maturity. An acceptance is a high-grade negotiable instrument. Bankers Acceptances can be purchased in various denominations for 30, 60, or 90 days, but no longer than -180 days. The interest is calculated on a 360-day discount basis similar to Treasury Bills. Local agencies may not invest more than 40% of their surplus funds in bankers’ acceptances or more than 10% of the agency’s surplus funds in bankers’ acceptances of any one commercial bank.

Certificates of Deposit - Time deposits of a bank or savings and loan. They are purchased in various denominations with maturities ranging from 30 to 360 days. The interest is calculated on a 360-day, actual-day month basis and is payable monthly.

Negotiable Certificates of Deposit - Unsecured obligations of the financial institution, bank or savings and loan, bought at par value with the promise to pay face value plus accrued interest at maturity. They are high-grade negotiable instruments, paying a higher interest rate than regular certificates of deposit. The primary market issuance is in multiples of $1,000,000; the secondary market usually trades in denominations of $500,000, although smaller lots are occasionally available. As a matter of practice, only the ten largest U.S. banks where there is a secondary market established for continued liquidity are considered for investment. The City’s total investment in negotiable certificates of deposit may not exceed 30% of surplus funds.

Commercial Paper - Short-term unsecured promissory notes issued by a corporation to raise working capital. These negotiable instruments are purchased at a discount to par value or at par value with interest bearing.

The City is permitted by State law to invest in commercial paper of "prime" quality of the highest ranking or of the highest letter and numerical rating as provided for by a nationally recognized statistical-rating organization (NRSRO).

Eligible paper is further limited to issuing corporations that are organized and operating within the United States and having total assets in excess of five hundred million dollars ($500,000,000) and having an “A” or higher rating for the issuer’s debt other than commercial paper as rated by an NRSRO. Commercial Paper issued by an Issuer that has a rating of “A” on their debt other than commercial paper but are on credit watch for a possible downgrade by an NRSRO shall not be considered for investment purposes.

Purchases of eligible commercial paper may not exceed 270 days maturity nor represent more than 10% of the outstanding paper of an issuing corporation. Purchases of commercial paper may not exceed 25 percent of the portfolio.

Medium Term Corporate Notes - Unsecured promissory notes issued by a corporation organized and operating in the United States. These are negotiable instruments and are traded in the

3.a
Packet Pg. 15
Attachment: FY25 Investment Policy with Cover (5965 : Treasurer's Report) 6 secondary market. Medium term corporate notes can be defined as extended maturity commercial paper.

Local agencies are restricted by the Government Code to investments in corporations rated in the top three note categories by Moody's Investors Service, Inc., and/or Standard and Poor's Corporation. For medium-term notes, eligible purchases consist of instruments that have a rating of "A" or better by both Moody's Investors Service, Inc., and Standard and Poor's Corporation.

Corporate Notes issued by an issuer that has a rating of “A” but are on credit watch for a possible downgrade by a nationally recognized rating agency shall not be considered for investment purposes. If the security's credit rating falls below an "A" rating by one of these agencies, then awareness is heightened and the security monitored closely to determine if credit risk has been significantly increased. If a security falls below an "A" rating by both rating agencies, then the City Treasurer and his/her designee will evaluate the need to sell the security prior to maturity. Further restrictions on the purchase of medium term corporate notes are a maximum term of five years to maturity and total investments in medium term corporate notes may not exceed 30% of the local agency's surplus funds or 5% in any one issuer name.

Repurchase Agreements - A repurchase agreement is a short-term investment transaction. Banks buy temporarily idle funds from a customer by selling U.S. Government or other securities with a contractual agreement to repurchase the same securities on a future date. Repurchase agreements are typically for one to ten days in maturity. The customer receives interest from the bank. The interest rate reflects both the prevailing demand for Federal funds and the maturity of the repurchase agreement. Some banks will execute repurchase agreements for a minimum of $100,000 to $500,000, but most banks have a minimum of $1,000,000. The term of a repurchase agreement may not exceed one year. The market value of securities that underlay a repurchase agreement shall be valued at 102 percent or greater of the funds borrowed against those securities and the value shall be adjusted no less than quarterly. Repurchase Agreements can only be executed with financial institutions or broker/dealers that have signed a Master Repurchase Agreement with the City.

Reverse Repurchase Agreements - A reverse repurchase agreement is the opposite of a repurchase agreement. The City loans a security to a bank in exchange for cash. The City agrees to pay off the loan with interest on a future date. As this type of investment actually involves a loan arrangement, the City may not invest more than 10% of its surplus funds in reverse repurchase agreements, and must always match its maturities to the reinvestment. Reverse repurchase agreements may be utilized only when either of the following conditions are met:

1. The security was owned or specifically committed to purchase, by the local agency, prior to December 31, 1994, and was sold using a reverse repurchase agreement on December 31, 1994.

2. The security:
a) to be sold has been owned and fully paid for a minimum of 30 days prior to sale; and
b) total of all reverse repurchase agreements owned does not exceed 10 percent of the base value of the portfolio; and
c) agreement does not exceed a term of 92 days, unless the agreement includes a written codicil guaranteeing a minimum earning or spread for the entire period between the sale of a security using a reverse repurchase agreement and the final maturity date of the same security.

LAIF (Local Agency Investment Fund) - A special fund in the State Treasury which local agencies may use to deposit funds for investment. There is no minimum investment period and the

3.a
Packet Pg. 16
Attachment: FY25 Investment Policy with Cover (5965 : Treasurer's Report) 7 minimum transaction is $5,000, in multiples of $1,000 above that, with a maximum balance of $40,000,000 for any agency. The City is restricted to a maximum of fifteen transactions per month.

It offers high liquidity because deposits can be converted to cash in 24 hours and no interest is lost. All interest is distributed to those agencies participating on a proportionate share basis determined by the amounts deposited and the length of time they are deposited. Interest is paid quarterly. The State retains an amount for reasonable costs of making the investments, not to exceed one-quarter of one percent of the earnings. California Government Code §16429.3 states, in part:
"money placed with the State Treasurer for deposit in the Local Agency Investment Fund by cities, counties, or special districts shall not be subject to impoundment or seizure by any state official or state agency."
Money Market Mutual Funds - Shares of beneficial interest issued by diversified management companies. To be eligible for investment, shares must:

1. attain the highest rating provided by Moody's Investors Service, Inc., which is currently "Aaa," and/or Standard and Poor's Corporation, which is currently "AAA;" and,

2. the investment adviser managing the shares must be registered with the Securities and Exchange Commission with not less than five years’ experience investing in instruments authorized under California Government Code §53601subdivisions (a) to (m) inclusive, and with assets under management in excess of five hundred million dollars ($500,000,000); and,

3. the purchase price of shares shall not include any commission that these companies may charge; and,

4. investment in shares shall not exceed 20 percent of surplus funds.

However, no more than 10 percent of the City’s surplus funds may be invested in shares of beneficial interest of any one mutual fund. Furthermore, any investment in a money market mutual fund must comply with other self-imposed restrictions as specified in this Investment Policy.

Asset-Backed and Mortgage-Backed Security - Bonds backed by payments from receivables/mortgages having a maximum of five years maturity. These securities must have an "AA" or better rating by Moody's Investors Services, Inc., and/or Standard and Poor's Corporation.

No more than 20% of the City's surplus money may be invested in these securities.

VIII. INVESTMENT OF BOND PROCEEDS
When investing proceeds from the issuance of bonds, the City of Barstow will follow this Investment Policy when determining allowable investments. Should the trust agreement of a particular bond issue be more restrictive than the City's policy on permitted investments, then the trust agreement will take precedence.

IX. CITY CONSTRAINTS
The City Treasurer or his/her designee will evaluate local banks and savings institutions and may invest idle cash funds with such institutions when the criteria for prudent investment previously stated are met. The City operates its investment pool according to State and self-imposed constraints. It does not buy stocks; it does not speculate; it does not deal in futures or options.

Any investment extending beyond a five-year period requires prior City Council approval.

Additionally, a minimum of 20% of the outstanding investments must mature within a one-year period.

3.a
Packet Pg. 17
Attachment: FY25 Investment Policy with Cover (5965 : Treasurer's Report) 8 X. SAFEKEEPING AND COLLATERALIZATION
All security transactions, including collateral for repurchase agreements, entered into by the City shall be conducted on a delivery-versus-payment (DVP) basis. Securities will be held by a third party custodian designated by the City Treasurer or his/her designee.

Collateralization will be required on two types of investments: certificates of deposit and repurchase (and reverse repurchase) agreements. In order to anticipate market changes and provide a level of security for all funds, a minimum collateralization level is required.

Surplus funds must be deposited in State or national banks, State or Federal savings and loan associations, or State or Federal credit unions within the State of California. The deposits cannot exceed the amount of the bank's or savings and loan's paid-up capital and surplus.

The bank or savings and loan must secure public funds deposits with eligible securities having a market value of 110% of the total amount of the deposits. State law also allows as an eligible security, first trust deeds having a value of 150% of the total amount of the deposits. A third class of collateral is 105% in the form of a letter of credit drawn on the Federal Home Loan Bank.

The City Treasurer or his/her designee may waive security for that portion of a deposit, which is insured pursuant to Federal law. Currently, the first $100,000 of a deposit is federally insured.

Deposits in excess of $100,000 are collateralized as previously indicated.

XI. DERIVATIVE INVESTMENTS
A derivative is a generic term often used to categorize a wide variety of financial instruments whose value "depends on" or is "derived from" the value of an underlying asset, reference rate, or index.

Investments in derivative instruments are limited to debt securities that have periodic increases, or step-up interest rate adjustments that provide upward mobility in yield return. Investments in debt securities, which contain a callable feature are also allowable, but must comply with other restrictions as specified in this Investment Policy.

Investments purchased after June 19, 1995, in derivative instruments known as "inverse floaters," "dual index," or "stepped inverse" securities that produce higher than market yields at purchase date (when interest rates are low), but have the possibility of producing low or no coupon rates as market interest rates rise through the life of the instrument are not allowable. Furthermore, investments in range notes or interest-only strips that are derived from a pool of mortgages are not allowable. However, debt securities that have a floor or a built-in feature that prevents the instrument from potentially returning no yield are allowable.

XII. POLICY COMPLIANCE REGULATIONS
Should the portfolio, for any reason, fall out of compliance with this Investment Policy, immediate liquidation of securities in order to bring the portfolio back into compliance is not required.

However, the Treasurer must take action to bring the portfolio into compliance within 12 months from the date the portfolio was determined to be in non-compliance with the provisions of this Investment Policy. Additionally, adequate disclosure as to all instances of noncompliance, and the efforts undertaken to bring the portfolio into compliance, must be made on the monthly Treasurer’s Report.

However, as a matter of practice, a monthly report shall be submitted listing the type of investments, institution, date of maturity, par value, amount of deposit, rate of interest, current market value for all securities, and such other data as may be required by the City Council on a monthly basis.

XIV. QUALIFIED DEALERS
The City of Barstow shall transact business only with banks, savings and loans, and registered investment securities dealers. The City will limit the number of broker/dealers authorized to do business with the City to no more than one (1) broker/dealer for every $10,000,000 of portfolio size. Each authorized broker/dealer shall be required to annually file a signed certification with the City Treasurer certifying that they have read and understand the City’s most recently adopted investment policy.

The City Treasurer or his/her designee will maintain a list of financial institutions authorized to provide investment services. In addition, a list will also be maintained of approved broker/dealers who are authorized to provide investment services in the State of California. These may include "primary" and "regional" broker/dealers with offices located in the State of California. All financial institutions and broker/dealers who desire to become qualified bidders for investment transactions must be approved by and supply the City Treasurer or his/her designee with a completed broker/dealer questionnaire.

XV. POLICY REVIEW
This Statement of Investment Policy shall be reviewed at least annually to ensure its consistency with the overall objectives of preservation of principal, liquidity and return, and its relevance to current law, financial and economic trends. Should conditions change or legislation become effective that behooves subsequent changes or a liberalization of terms within the policy during the next fiscal year, the revised policy will be submitted to Council for adoption of the recommended action.

INVESTMENT PROCEDURES
INTERNAL CONTROL – GUIDELINES

OBJECTIVES OF INTERNAL CONTROL
Internal control is the plan of organization and all the related systems established by the management's objective of ensuring, as far as practicable:

1. The orderly and efficient conduct of its business, including adherence to management policies.

2. The safeguarding of assets.

3. The prevention or detection of errors and fraud.

4. The accuracy and completeness of the accounting records.

5. The timely preparation of reliable financial information.

LIMITATIONS OF INTERNAL CONTROL
No internal control system, however elaborate, can by itself guarantee the achievement of management's objectives. Internal control can provide only reasonable assurance that the objectives are met, because of its inherent limitations, including:

1. Management's usual requirement that a control be cost-effective.

2. The direction of most controls at recurring, rather than unusual, types of transactions.

3. Human error due to misunderstanding, carelessness, fatigue, or distraction.

4. Potential for collusion that circumvents controls dependent on the segregation of functions.

5. Potential for a person responsible for exercising control abusing that responsibility; a responsible staff member could be in a position to override controls which management has set up.

ELEMENTS OF INTERNAL CONTROL
Elements of a system of internal control are the means by which an organization can satisfy the objectives of internal control. These elements are:

1. ORGANIZATION
Specific responsibility for the performance of duties should be assigned and lines of authority and reporting clearly identified and understood.

2. PERSONNEL
Personnel should have capabilities commensurate with their responsibilities. Personnel selection and training policies together with the quality and quantity of supervision are thus important.

3. SEGREGATION OF FUNCTIONS
Segregation of incompatible functions reduces the risk that a person is in a position both to perpetrate and conceal errors or fraud in the normal course of duty. If two parts of a transaction are handled by different people, collusion is necessary to conceal errors or fraud. In particular, the functions that should be considered when evaluating

3.a
Packet Pg. 22
Attachment: FY25 Investment Policy with Cover (5965 : Treasurer's Report) 13 CITY OF BARSTOW INVESTMENT PROCEDURES INTERNAL CONTROL - GUIDELINES (Continued)
segregation of functions are authorization, execution, recording, custody of assets, and performing reconciliations.

4. AUTHORIZATION
All transactions should be authorized by an appropriate responsible individual. The responsibilities and limits of authorization should be clearly delineated. The individual or group authorizing a specific transaction or granting general authority for transactions should be in a position commensurate with the nature and significance of the transactions.

Delegation of authority to authorize transactions should be handled very carefully.

5. CONTROLS OVER AN ACCOUNTING SYSTEM
Controls over an accounting system include the procedures, both manual and computerized, carried out independently to ascertain that transactions are complete, valid, authorized, and properly recorded.

3.a
Packet Pg. 23
Attachment: FY25 Investment Policy with Cover (5965 : Treasurer's Report) 14 CITY OF BARSTOW CASH CONTROLS

4. All bank accounts are authorized by resolution.

5. Cash counts are done by two or more individuals.

6. Bank reconciliations are reviewed.

7. Prompt posting of cash receipt entries in books.

8. Receipt forms are pre-numbered, accounted for, and physically secured.

9. Proper approval required for write-offs of customer accounts.

10. Checks are restrictively endorsed upon receipt or when run through cash register.

11. Adequate physical security over cash.

12. Individuals that handle cash do not post to customer account records or process billing statements.

13. Adequate supervision of Finance Department operations.

B. Significant revenues are confirmed directly with payer and compared with City accounting records to make sure amounts are recorded properly.

C. Cash balances are substantiated by confirming all account balances recorded in the accounting records. Bank reconciliations are reviewed for propriety and recalculated by the auditor. All significant reconciling items on bank reconciliations are verified as valid reconciling items by proving to subsequent bank statements.

1. Resolution No. 5198-2025 Revised Rules for the Conduct of City Council Meetings, Proceedings and Business.

AGENDA MATTER:

AWARD OF CONTRACT FOR PUBLIC FACILITY VENTILATION UPGRADES AT THE CORA HARPER COMMUNITY CENTER PROJECT TO ALLISON MECHANICAL INC. PROJECT #2024-1000 EXECUTIVE SUMMARY:

After conducting the competitive bid process for the ventilation upgrades at the Cora Harper Community Center (“the Project”), three bids were received. The lowest bid from California Energy Builders was incomplete and non-responsive. The second-lowest bid, and lowest qualifying bid, was supplied by Allison Mechanical Inc. in the amount of $1,696,200. Staff recommends awarding the bid to Allison Mechanical Inc in the amount of $1,781,010, inclusive of a 5% contingency.

The City of Barstow received $316,344 in CDBG funds for COVID-19-related public facility ventilation upgrades. Staff is requesting approval to use these funds for HVAC improvements at the Cora Harper Community Center (“Cora Harper”).

Additionally, the City was awarded $213,809 on July 1, 2024, for improvements to the Cora Harper. Staff is now requesting:
 $140,281 in unallocated CDBG funds to support the project, and  Reallocation of $222,739 from a separate ADA curb ramps and infrastructure project to the Cora Harper.

DISCUSSION:

The Cora Harper requires critical HVAC upgrades to improve ventilation, air quality, and overall facility efficiency. With summer around the corner and temperatures that regularly reach over 100 degrees, it is strongly recommended the City replaces the HVAC system at Cora Harper.

Staff solicited bid proposals and specifications for the Project. The City first advertised the Project for bids on November 5, 2024, but received only one non-qualifying bid by the December 4, 2024 deadline.

As a result, the City was required to re-advertise the Project, which it did on February 18, 2025.

The Project consists of demolition of: existing Air Handlers Units, and Ductwork, Existing Chillers, Chiller Pumps and Piping, MCC & Wiring. The Project consists of construction of: Air Handler Units, Energy Recovery Ventilators, HVAC Ductwork, Refrigerant piping, Heat Pumps, HVAC Controls, FB HEPA Filters Boxes, Gravity Intake and Exhaust Vents, Plumbing Condensate Drains, Electrical-Panel H1, H2, 11 Packet Pg. 117

AGENDA ITEM
L1, L2 Conduit & Wiring.

There were 6 qualified bidders that attended the mandatory bid meeting and site walk. The City received 3 Bid Proposals for the Project. Two addenda were issued. The Bid Proposals for the Project included the following:
 ATELIER 21 INTERNATIONAL: $1,857,500
 CALIFORNIA ENERGY BUILDERS: $1,160,000
 ALLISON MECHANICAL INC.: $1,696,200
California Energy Builders (“C.E.B.”) provided the lowest Bid amount of $1,600,000, however, they did not include a bid bond or provide any subcontractors in the subcontractor’s list, nor do they exhibit the experience in the past five years to qualify for this project. The omissions in C.E.B.’s Bid Proposal are material and substantial such that the City cannot waive them, so C.E.B. was rendered a nonresponsive bidder.

Allison Mechanical Inc. (“Allison”) provided the second-lowest bid price of $1,696,200 and included the required documentation. Allison demonstrated they are a responsible and responsive low bidder for this project. Therefore, out of the 3 Bid Proposals received, Allison is the lowest qualified bidder.

The City’s consultant, Merrell Johnson Companies, reviewed the bids and recommended the City proceed forward with Allison Mechanical Inc. as the contractor for the project for the reasons outlined above. City staff agrees with this recommendation to award the contract to Allison.

FUNDING ALLOCATION FOR PROJECT
The City allocated $316,344 in CDBG-CV funding for public facility ventilation improvements. City staff proposes directing these funds toward the Cora Harper HVAC project. Additionally, to fully fund the project, staff proposes using:
 $213,809 from an existing CDBG allocation for Cora Harper improvements  $140,281 from unprogrammed CDBG funds
 $222,739 reallocated from a previously approved ADA/infrastructure CDBG project 11 Packet Pg. 118

AGENDA ITEM
This provides a total of $893,173 in available CDBG funding. Project cost from Allison Mechanical Inc.’s bid totals $1,781,010 (a bid pf $1,696,200 with a recommended 5% contingency of 84,810).

This leaves a funding gap of $887,837, for which an additional funding source will need to be identified.

Staff will continue to explore other funding options to close this gap.

Summary of funding available and needed:
 Total available CDBG funding: $893,173
 Total project cost (including 5% contingency): $1,781,010  Remaining balance to be funded: $887,837

ADOPT CITY COUNCIL POLICY MEMORANDUM #2025-___, CANNABIS COMMUNITY BENEFIT

PROGRAM POLICY
EXECUTIVE SUMMARY:

This policy establishes guidelines for the manner in which Community Benefit Program funds are expended to fund city projects, city-sponsored community events, and repairs, maintenance, and/or upgrades to equipment or structures that were purchased using Community Benefit Program funds.

Community Benefit Program funds are received annually by cannabis business operators .

DISCUSSION:

The Cannabis Community Benefit Program Policy (Attachment A) recently completed the review process by the Rules and Policy Committee and was directed to be brought forth before the City Council for review and consideration. Approval of the Community Benefit Program Policy would establish eligible uses and provides guidance as to the process by which the City can appropriate usage of Community Benefit Funds.

The Cannabis Community Benefit Program is funded through the Development Agreement that was approved by the City Council for each cannabis business operator. Currently, Community Benefit Program funds are paid by two (2) cannabis retailers and seven (7) cannabis manufacturers/cultivators.

The City estimates receiving an estimated $320K each year. As per the proposed policy, Community Benefit Program funds can be utilized to fund city project, city-sponsored community events, repairs, maintenance and/or upgrades to equipment and structures that are purchased or constructed using Community Benefit Program funds, or other expenditures that are recommended by the City Manager and approved by the City Council. The Rules & Policy Committee recommended bringing this policy before the City Council to determine the percentages which will be allocated to the three (3) categories:

City Project, City-Sponsored Events, and Repairs, Maintenance, and/or Upgrades. Examples of these percentages are included for reference by the City Council (Attachment B).

The Cannabis Community Benefit Program Policy will define eligible expenditures of Program funds, creates a Community Benefit Committee, establishes the appointment process for committee members, and identifies the process and timeline as to how the Community Benefit Committee will propose eligible Community Benefit funded expenses to the City Council for consideration and approval. Each budget cycle, the City Council may approve expenditures up to the amount that was collected in the prior fiscal year. Additionally, unappropriated funds, or funds collected in prior fiscal years or those which remain unspent, may be considered by the City Council for appropriation.

FISCAL IMPACT:

None. Expenditures related to the Cannabis Community Benefit Program will never exceed the total amount of funds collected in previous fiscal year(s).

AGENDA MATTER:

ASSESSMENT AND FUNDING NEEDS FOR SPORTS PARK FIELD IMPROVEMENTS EXECUTIVE SUMMARY:

At the request of Council Member Williams, with a second from Mayor Silva, staff was asked to assess the current conditions of the two remaining infields at the Sports Park and explore potential funding options for their improvement.

DISCUSSION:

Staff conducted an on-site evaluation of the two remaining fields at the Sports Park. Two infields were found to be in deteriorating condition and in need of repair to meet appropriate usability and safety standards. Preliminary estimates indicate that the cost to complete the necessary improvements for both infields is approximately $125,000. Currently, the FY 2024-25 budget does not include funding for this project, and there are no unallocated funds available in the current fiscal year. As a result, staff is unable to move forward without further direction from the Council or the identification of alternative funding sources.

Councilman Williams requested this item to evaluate the use of public safety funds generated by cannabis sales to upgrade athletic facilities, including the field renovations, to ensure the safety of student athletes.

FISCAL IMPACT:

The fiscal impact is currently unknown, as staff is awaiting direction from the City Council before identifying potential funding sources or reallocations.

RECOMMENDED ACTION:

Staff is requesting direction from the City Council on the following:

1. Should staff explore the possibility of pausing or reprioritizing other planned repairs in order to reallocate approximately $125,000 for the Sports Park field improvements within the current fiscal year?

2. If immediate funding is not available, should the Sports Park field improvements be prioritized for consideration during the FY 2025-26 budget planning process? 13 Packet Pg. 152

COUNCIL AGENDA ITEM
AGENDA MATTER:

UPDATE TO THE CLASSIFICATION AND COMPENSATION PLAN TO AMEND UNREPRESENTED

POSITIONS, WITH NO BUDGET IMPACT
EXECUTIVE SUMMARY:

After evaluating the positions in the City Manager’s office and department needs, staff is recommending the addition of an unrepresented position to the City’s salary schedule as well as the reduction of one position in the City Manager’s office. This will reduce the department personnel budget and allow flexibility to add or reclassify other much-needed positions in other departments. The proposed updates to the department will result in better oversight and internal control in a cost-effective manner and will result in the improvement to city services.

The proposed update to the Classification and Compensation plan will add the new unrepresented and at-will position of Administrative Services Director and restore the Police Chief position.

ATTACHMENTS:

1. Resolution to update the Classification and Compensation Plan (Salary Schedule)

2. Administrative Services Director Job Description
DISCUSSION:

The City Manager Department is charged with oversight of City-wide operations and information.

Currently the department is staffed with five (5) positions, including City Manager, Assistant City Manager, Economic Development Director, Public Information Officer and Executive Assistant. Based on the current city needs and staffing levels, the city can benefit from the addition of an Administrative Services Director to oversee the departments/divisions that do not have an assigned Director position. This position would replace the Economic Development Director position with the same salary range and no budget impact.

Other proposed changes to the City Manager’s office include the reduction of the budgeted Public Information Officer position to allow the transfer of budget savings to other positions in order to reclassify or restructure and improve city services. Public information is of vital importance to the community and public at-large, so rather than eliminate that function, it is recommended to transfer the budget from the Executive Assistant position and incorporate the Public Information needs to the position of Assistant to the City Manager, as well as other vital functions such as Governmental and Legislative Affairs and special projects.

The total impact of the proposed changes would be the reduction in staffing levels to the City Manager’s Department, to four (4) positions, rather than five (5), and overall budget savings.

In addition to the City Manager’s department update, the Police Chief position was eliminated from the Salary Schedule while the previous incumbent was serving as Interim City Manager. The City is currently recruiting a Police Chief so the position must be added back into the Salary Schedule.

COUNCIL AGENDA ITEM
There is no fiscal impact associated with this item. The budget for the Economic Development Director position will be transferred to the Administrative Services Director and the budget for Public Information Officer position will be transferred to other position needs and potential reclassifications in other departments.

The Police Chief position will remain at its former salary range within the Salary Schedule with no impact on the budget.

RECOMMENDED ACTION:

1. Approve Resolution No. ____-2025 to update the Classification and Compensation Plan to include the positions of Administrative Services Director and Police Chief; and

COUNCIL ORDINANCE
AGENDA MATTER:

PROVIDE FEEDBACK ON DRAFT ORDINANCE REGARDING SMOKE SHOPS AND TOBACCO

STORES PRIOR TO PLANNING COMMISSION REVIEW
EXECUTIVE SUMMARY:

The proposed ordinance limits smoke shop and tobacco store property uses within the City of Barstow to the Commercial (c) and Diverse Use (DU) land use districts, subjects such uses to the issuance of a conditional use permit, limits the number of conditional use permits that may be issued for smoke shop and tobacco store uses, and allows the continued operation of lawfully existing smoke shop and tobacco stores.

Staff requests City Council feedback prior to consideration of the proposed ordinance by the Planning Commission. If directed by the City Council, staff will add this ordinance to the agenda for the May 17, 2025 Planning Commission for a noticed public hearing. After Planning Commission consideration, the proposed ordinance would be return to City Council for a first reading.

DISCUSSION:

Background
At the October 7, 2024, the City Council referred a proposed ordinance regarding the creation of a tobacco retailer registration system (Tobacco Retailer Registration Ordinance) to the Rules and Policy Committee for consideration and to provide recommendations to the City Council.

At the January 28, 2025 meeting, the Committee requested several substantive and non- substantive changes to the draft ordinance
On February 25, 2025, the Rules and Policy Committee finalized their feedback for the City Council on Tobacco Retailer Registration Ordinance for consideration. The proposed ordinance required an amendment to the Master Fees Resolution to add the regulatory permit fee. A fee study for this permit and amendment to the Master Fees Resolution were prepared and provided to the Committee.

On March 17, 2025, the City Council received public comment and continued this ordinance to the May 20, 2025 City Council meeting. The City Council also directed the Rules and Policy Committee to consider the proposed ordinance further, in light of City Council questions and community and business owner feedback.

On March 27, 2025 and April 29, 2025, the Rules and Policy Committee received public comment, considered the proposed ordinance, and provided the enclosed feedback to the City Council. 15 Packet Pg. 169

COUNCIL ORDINANCE
Pivot to Smoke Shop and Tobacco Store Ordinance
Following further review by the Rules and Policy Committee on March 27, 2025 and on April 29, 2025, the Rules and Policy Committee recommends pivoting from the previously proposed Tobacco Retailer Registration Ordinance to a land use-based approach instead of a business regulation: the Smoke Shop and Tobacco Store Ordinance.

The original ordinance focused on enforcing underage tobacco sales regulations, the sale of drug paraphernalia marketed as tobacco products, and aesthetic impacts on neighborhoods. The proposed Smoke Shop and Tobacco Store Ordinance seeks to address broader community concerns by limiting the proliferation of smoke shops and tobacco stores.

Key features of the proposed Smoke Shop and Tobacco Store Ordinance include:
 Adds Chapter 9.74 to the Barstow Municipal Code and aligns zoning regulations accordingly.
 Limits smoke shops and tobacco stores to the Commercial (C) and Diverse Use (DU) zoning districts.
 Removes these uses from the Human Services (HS) district entirely.  Requires CUPs for such uses in both the C and DU districts (no longer permitted by right).
 Requires a conditional use permit (CUP) for new operations in these districts.  Establishes land use standards and CUP conditions for such businesses.  Defines a narrower class of regulated smoke shops and tobacco stores.  Prohibits the issuance of a conditional use permit if there are ten or more smoke shops and tobacco stores (including existing ones) operating within the City.  Allows current businesses to operate as nonconforming “legacy” uses without being subject to the conditional use permit and distance requirements, including upon sale if the business is relicensed within 180 days.
 Prohibits new smoke shops and tobacco stores from operating within 1,000 feet of an existing smoke shop and tobacco store, as well as schools, parks, and other locations where children regularly gather.

COUNCIL ORDINANCE
 Measures distance requirements from business front doors rather than property lines.  Requires CUPs to expire six months after operations cease.

At the April 29, 2025 Rules and Policy Committee meeting, the Committee was satisfied with the revised version of the proposed Smoke Shops and Tobacco Stores ordinance and recommended that it be brought before the City Council for additional feedback before being brought before the Planning Commission for consideration.

The current version of the Smoke Shop and Tobacco Store Ordinance is attached as Attachment 1.

The most recent version of the Tobacco Retailer Registration Ordinance is attached as Attachment 2.

Attachment 1 - Ordinance adding Chapter 9.74 to Title 9 and amended Zoning Code (Smoke Shops and Tobacco Stores)
Attachment 2 - Tobacco Retailer Registration Ordinance
FISCAL IMPACT:

The implementation of the proposed Smoke Shop and Tobacco Store ordinance will involve some costs to the City associated with subjecting smoke shop and tobacco store uses to the issuance of conditional use permits, but these costs can be largely, if not wholly, offset by conditional use permit fees.

RECOMMENDED ACTION:

That the City Council provide direction to staff regarding potential changes to the proposed draft ordinance regulating smoke shops and tobacco stores as land uses and amending the Barstow Municipal Code to add a new chapter 9.74 and amending sections 19.14.030, 19.16.020, and

19.030 for further consideration by the Planning Commission. 15 Packet Pg. 171

AN ORDINANCE OF THE CITY COUNCIL OF THE CITY OF BARSTOW ADDING CHAPTER 9.74 TO TITLE 9 OF THE BARSTOW MUNICIPAL CODE AND AMENDING SECTIONS 19.14.030, 19.16.020, AND 19.16.030 OF THE

BARSTOW MUNICIPAL CODE REGARDING

SMOKE SHOPS AND TOBACCO STORES
WHEREAS, the State Planning and Zoning Law (Government Code Sections 65000, et seq.) broadly empowers the City to plan for and regulate the use of land in order to provide for orderly development, the public health, safety, and welfare, and a balancing of property rights and the desires of the community and how its citizens envision their city; and
WHEREAS, the City adopted Ordinance No. 969-2021 – City of Barstow Smoking Pollution Control Ordinance – to prohibit smoking and consumption of any and all kinds of cigarettes, cigars, pipes, all forms of vapes (including water based), water pipes, electronic cigarettes, and any other form of smoking in the places specified therein based upon its grave concerns about use of tobacco products; and WHEREAS, California voters approved Proposition 31 at the November 2022 election, which banned most sales of flavored tobacco products and tobacco product flavor enhancers. The ban went into effect on January 1, 2023; and WHEREAS, Proposition 31 does not preempt or otherwise prohibit the adoption of a local ordinance that imposes greater restrictions on the access to tobacco products than the restrictions imposed by Proposition 31; and
WHEREAS, approximately 480,000 people die in the United States from tobacco-related diseases every year, making it the nation’s leading cause of preventable death; and WHEREAS, there are currently 11 smoke shops and tobacco stores lawfully operating within the City of Barstow, but the City has no law expressly limiting the proliferation of smoke shops and tobacco stores with the City, which said proliferation would lead to the increased potential for tobacco sales to minors, greater opportunity for the sale of illegal drug paraphernalia that is marketed as tobacco paraphernalia, and heightened risk of negative aesthetic impacts, blight, and loss of property values of residential neighborhoods and businesses in close proximity to such uses; and WHEREAS, pursuant to the City of Barstow’s police power, as granted under Article XI, section 7 of the California Constitution, the City Council of the City has the authority to enact and enforce ordinances and regulations for public health, safety, and welfare; and 5 15.a
Packet Pg. 173 Attachment: Attachment 1 (5978 : Provide Feedback on Draft Ordinance Regarding Smoke Shops And) WHEREAS, pursuant to its police powers, the City has the authority to regulate the sale of tobacco products in the City; and
WHEREAS, in order to protect public health, safety, and welfare, the City Council desires to adopt an ordinance that will regulate smoke shops and tobacco stores; NOW THEREFORE, the City Council of the City of Barstow does ordain as follows:

SECTION 1. Municipal Code Amendment. A new Chapter 9.74 titled “Smoke Shops and Tobacco Stores” is added to Title 9 of the Barstow Municipal Code to read as follows:

CHAPTER 9.74. - SMOKE SHOPS AND TOBACCO STORES
Sec. 9.74.010. - Purpose and intent.

The regulation of smoke shops and tobacco stores is necessary and in the interests of the public health, safety, and general welfare because there is the substantial likelihood of the proliferation of the establishment and operation of smoke shops and tobacco stores in the City of Barstow. The expansion of smoke shops and tobacco stores in the City would result in undesirable impacts to the community. Among these impacts are increased potential for underage tobacco sales, greater opportunity for the sale of illegal drug paraphernalia that is marketed as tobacco paraphernalia, and heightened risk of negative aesthetic impacts, blight, and loss of property values of residential neighborhoods and businesses in close proximity to such uses. This chapter is intended to be consistent with good zoning and planning practices to address such negative impacts of smoke shops and tobacco stores while providing a reasonable number of locations and zones for such shops/stores to locate within the City of Barstow.

Sec. 9.74.020. - Definitions.

The following words, terms, and phrases, whenever used in this chapter, shall have the meanings ascribed to them in this section, except where the context clearly indicates a different meaning:
“Ancillary sale” means where a grocery store, supermarket, convenience store, or similar market uses no more than 2 percent of its gross floor area, or 500 square feet, whichever is less, for the display, sale, distribution, delivery, offering, furnishing, or marketing of conventional cigars, cigarettes, or tobacco. For any grocery store, convenience market, retail kiosk, or similar use consisting of 300 square feet or less, “ancillary sale” shall mean where no more than 5 square feet are used for the display, sale, distribution, delivery, offering, furnishing, or marketing of conventional cigars, cigarettes, or tobacco. The display, sale, distribution, delivery, offering, furnishing, or marketing of e-cigarettes or any other tobacco products or tobacco paraphernalia, regardless of square footage used, is subject to the restrictions of this chapter and shall not constitute “ancillary sale” under any circumstances. 6 15.a
Packet Pg. 174 Attachment: Attachment 1 (5978 : Provide Feedback on Draft Ordinance Regarding Smoke Shops And) “E-cigarette” means any electronically actuated device or inhaler meant to simulate cigarette smoking that uses a heating element to vaporize a liquid solution, popularly referred to as “juice,” and that causes the user to exhale any smoke, vapor, or substance other than that produced by unenhanced human exhalation. The juice used in e-cigarettes typically contains nicotine, and for this reason e-cigarettes and their juice can be classified as both tobacco products and tobacco paraphernalia.
"Legacy smoke shop and tobacco store” means a smoke shop and tobacco store lawfully existing and operating within the City of Barstow as of the effective date of the ordinance adding this chapter to the Barstow Municipal Code. “Legacy smoke shop and tobacco store” includes a smoke shop and tobacco store lawfully existing and operating within the City of Barstow as of the effective date of the ordinance adding this chapter to the Barstow Municipal Code that lawfully changes ownership after the effective date of the ordinance adding this chapter to the Barstow Municipal Code so long as the new owner obtains a business license for the smoke shop and tobacco store within 180 days of acquiring the business.
“Smoke shop and tobacco store” means any premises dedicated to the display, sale, distribution, delivery, offering, furnishing, or marketing of tobacco, tobacco products, or tobacco paraphernalia; provided, however, that any grocery store, supermarket, convenience store or similar retail use that only sells conventional cigars, cigarettes, or tobacco as an ancillary sale shall not be defined as a “smoke shop and tobacco store” and shall not be subject to the restrictions in this chapter. “Tobacco” shall mean any preparation of the nicotine-rich leaves of the tobacco plant, which are cured by a process of drying and fermentation for use in smoking, chewing, absorbing, dissolving, inhaling, snorting, sniffing, or ingesting by any other means into the body.
“Tobacco paraphernalia” shall mean any paraphernalia, equipment, device, or instrument that is primarily designed or manufactured for the smoking, chewing, absorbing, dissolving, inhaling, snorting, sniffing, or ingesting by any other means into the body of tobacco, tobacco products, or other controlled substances as defined in California Health and Safety Code Section 11007. Items or devices classified as tobacco paraphernalia include but are not limited to the following: pipes, punctured metal bowls, bongs, water bongs, electric pipes, e-cigarettes, e-cigarette juice, buzz bombs, vaporizers, hookahs, and devices for holding burning material so it can be ingested. Lighters and matches shall be excluded from the definition of tobacco paraphernalia. “Tobacco product” shall mean any product in leaf, flake, plug, liquid, or any other form, containing nicotine derived from the tobacco plant, or otherwise derived, which is intended to enable human consumption of the tobacco or nicotine in the product, whether smoked, chewed, absorbed, dissolved, inhaled, snorted, sniffed, or ingested by any other means.

For the purposes of this chapter, the term “tobacco product” excludes any product that has been specifically approved by the United States Food and Drug Administration (FDA) for sale as a tobacco/smoking cessation product or for other medical purposes, where such product is marketed and sold solely for such an approved purpose. 7 15.a

AN ORDINANCE OF THE CITY COUNCIL OF THE CITY OF BARSTOW ADDING CHAPTER 5.55 TO TITLE 5 OF THE BARSTOW MUNICIPAL CODE

REGARDING TOBACCO RETAILER REGISTRATION
WHEREAS, the State Planning and Zoning Law (Government Code Sections 65000, et seq.) broadly empowers the City to plan for and regulate the use of land in order to provide for orderly development, the public health, safety, and welfare, and a balancing of property rights and the desires of the community and how its citizens envision their city; and
WHEREAS, the City adopted Ordinance No. 969-2021 – City of Barstow Smoking Pollution Control Ordinance - to prohibit smoking and consumption of any and all kinds of cigarettes, cigars, pipes, all forms of vapes (including water based), water pipes, electronic cigarettes, and any other form of smoking in the places specified therein based upon its grave concerns about use of tobacco products; and WHEREAS, California voters approved Proposition 31 at the November 2022 election, which banned most sales of flavored tobacco products and tobacco product flavor enhancers. The ban went into effect on January 1, 2023; and WHEREAS, Proposition 31 does not preempt or otherwise prohibit the adoption of a local ordinance that imposes greater restrictions on the access to tobacco products than the restrictions imposed by Proposition 31; and
WHEREAS, approximately 480,000 people die in the United States from tobaccorelated diseases every year, making it the nation’s leading cause of preventable death; and
WHEREAS, pursuant to the City of Barstow’s police power, as granted under Article XI, section 7 of the California Constitution, the City Council of the City has the authority to enact and enforce ordinances and regulations for public health, safety, and welfare; and WHEREAS, pursuant to its police powers, the City has the authority to regulate the sale of tobacco products in the City; and
WHEREAS, in order to protect public health, safety, and welfare, the City Council desires to adopt an ordinance that will regulate tobacco retailers and tobacco products.

NOW THEREFORE, the City Council of the City of Barstow does ordain as follows:

Packet Pg. 185 Attachment: Attachment 2 (5978 : Provide Feedback on Draft Ordinance Regarding Smoke Shops And) to read as follows:

CHAPTER 5.55. TOBACCO RETAILER REGISTRATION ORDINANCE
Sec. 5.55.010. Title.

This chapter is known and may be cited as the “Tobacco Retailer Registration Ordinance” of the City of Barstow.

Sec. 5.55.020. Purpose and intent.

The purpose of this chapter is to regulate the retail sale of tobacco, tobacco products, and tobacco paraphernalia in the City so as to promote the public health, safety, and welfare of the city’s citizens. Nothing in this chapter shall preempt or make inapplicable any provision of state or federal law.

Sec. 5.55.030. Definitions.

The following words, terms, and phrases, whenever used in this chapter, shall have the meanings ascribed to them in this section, except where the context clearly indicates a different meaning:
“Arm's length transaction” means a sale in good faith and for valuable consideration that reflects the fair market value in the open market between two informed and willing parties, neither of which is under any compulsion to participate in the transaction. A sale between relatives, related companies or partners, or a sale for which a significant purpose is avoiding the effect of the violations of this chapter is not an arm's length transaction. "City manager” means the City Manager of Barstow or their designee. “Department” means community development department, and any other agency or person tasked by the city manager of the city with enforcement of this chapter. “Director” and “community development director” mean the community development director of the city and any other person tasked by the city manager of the city with enforcement of this chapter.
“Electronic cigarette” means any of the following products:
(1) Any device or delivery system that can be used to deliver nicotine or flavored or unflavored tobacco products in aerosolized or vaporized form, including, but not limited to, an e-cigarette, e-cigar, e-pipe, vape pen, or e-hookah. (2) Any component, part, or accessory of such a device or delivery system that is used during its operation.
(3) Any flavored or unflavored liquid or substance containing nicotine, whether sold separately or sold in combination with any device or delivery system that could be used to deliver nicotine in aerosolized or vaporized form.
23 15.b
Packet Pg. 186 Attachment: Attachment 2 (5978 : Provide Feedback on Draft Ordinance Regarding Smoke Shops And) (4) Any product for use in an electronic nicotine device or delivery system whether or not it contains nicotine or tobacco or is derived from nicotine or tobacco. (5) “Electronic cigarette” does not include any battery, battery charger, carrying case, or other accessory not used in the operation of the device if sold separately. “Electronic cigarette” does not include any product that has been approved by the United States Food and Drug Administration for sale as a tobacco cessation product or for other therapeutic purposes where that product is marketed and sold solely for such approved use. As used in this subsection, “nicotine” does not include any food products as that term is defined pursuant to Section 6359 of the California Revenue and Taxation Code. “Flavored tobacco product” means any tobacco product that contains a constituent that imparts a characterizing flavor.
“Person” includes an individual, a corporation, limited liability company, government, governmental subdivision or agency, business trust, estate, trust, partnership or association, and all other legal or commercial entities. “Proprietor” means a person with an ownership or managerial interest in a business. An ownership interest shall be deemed to exist when a person has a ten (10) percent or greater interest in the stock, assets, or income of a business other than the sole interest of security for debt. A managerial interest shall be deemed to exist when a person can or does have or shares ultimate control over the day-to-day operations of a business. “Self-service display” means the open display or storage of tobacco products or tobacco paraphernalia in a manner that is physically accessible in any way to the general public without the assistance of the retailer or employee of the retailer and a direct person-toperson transfer between the purchaser and the retailer or employee of the retailer. A vending machine is a form of self-service display.
“Smoking” means possessing a lighted tobacco product, lighted tobacco paraphernalia, or any other lighted weed or plant (including a lighted pipe, cigar, hookah pipe, or cigarette of any kind) and also means the lighting of a tobacco product, tobacco paraphernalia, or any other weed or plant (including a pipe, cigar, hookah pipe, or cigarette of any kind). “Tobacco paraphernalia” means cigarette papers or wrappers, pipes, holders of smoking materials of all types, cigarette rolling machines, and any other item designed for the smoking, preparation, storing, or consumption of tobacco products. “Tobacco paraphernalia” does not include lighters, matches, or ashtrays. “Tobacco product” means any substance containing tobacco leaf, including, but not limited to, cigarettes, cigars, pipe tobacco, hookah tobacco, shisha tobacco, snuff, chewing tobacco, dipping tobacco, snus, bidis, or any other preparation of tobacco; any electronic device that delivers nicotine or other substances to the person inhaling from the device, including, but not limited to, an electronic cigarette, electronic cigar, electronic pipe, or electronic hookah; and any product or formulation of matter containing biologically active amounts of nicotine that is manufactured, sold, offered for sale, or otherwise 24 15.b
Packet Pg. 187 Attachment: Attachment 2 (5978 : Provide Feedback on Draft Ordinance Regarding Smoke Shops And) distributed with the expectation that the product or matter will be introduced into the human body, but does not include any cessation product specifically approved by the United States Food and Drug Administration for use in treating nicotine or tobacco dependence.
“Tobacco retailer” means any person who sells, offers for sale, or does or offers to exchange for any form of consideration, tobacco, tobacco products, or tobacco paraphernalia. “Tobacco retailing” shall mean the doing of any of these things. This definition is without regard to the quantity of tobacco, tobacco products, or tobacco paraphernalia sold, offered for sale, exchanged, or offered for exchange.

(c) Display of Registration. Each tobacco retailer registration shall be prominently displayed in a publicly visible location at the registered location. (d) Positive Identification Required.

The public display of tobacco products or tobacco paraphernalia in violation of 25 15.b
Packet Pg. 188 Attachment: Attachment 2 (5978 : Provide Feedback on Draft Ordinance Regarding Smoke Shops And) this provision shall constitute tobacco retailing without a registration under Section 5.55.130. This subsection does not prohibit an individual’s personal consumption of tobacco or tobacco products or personal use of tobacco paraphernalia in accordance with local, state, and federal laws; and (2) Shall not display any advertisement relating to tobacco products or tobacco paraphernalia that promotes the sale or distribution of such products from the tobacco retailer's location or that could lead a reasonable consumer to believe that such products can be obtained at that location.
(h) Sales of Electronic Cigarette Products Prohibited. No tobacco retailer shall sell or distribute any electronic cigarette in retail establishments located within the city, including any non-flavored, mint, menthol, or flavored electronic cigarette product.

Sec. 5.55.050. Limits on eligibility for a tobacco retailer registration. (a) No registration may be issued to authorize tobacco retailing at other than a fixed location. For example, tobacco retailing by persons on foot or from vehicles is prohibited.

(e) Tobacco retailers in existence as of the effective date of this chapter may apply for a tobacco retailer registration without regard for the location requirements in this section for one-hundred and eighty (180) days from the effective date of this chapter if the tobacco retailer holds an active business license and all taxes and fees are current as of the effective date of this chapter.

Sec. 5.55.060. Application Procedure.
(a) Application for a tobacco retailer's registration shall be submitted in the name of each proprietor proposing to conduct retail tobacco sales and shall be signed by each proprietor or an authorized agent thereof.
26 15.b
Packet Pg. 189 Attachment: Attachment 2 (5978 : Provide Feedback on Draft Ordinance Regarding Smoke Shops And) It is the responsibility of each proprietor to be informed of all laws applicable to tobacco retailing, including those laws affecting the issuance of a tobacco retailer's registration. No person may rely on the issuance of a registration as a determination by the city that the proprietor has complied with all laws applicable to tobacco retailing. A registration issued contrary to this chapter, contrary to any other law, or on the basis of false or misleading information supplied by a proprietor shall be revoked pursuant to Section 5.55.120(D) of this chapter. Nothing in this chapter shall be construed to vest in any person obtaining and maintaining a tobacco retailer's registration any status or right to act as a tobacco retailer in contravention of any provision of law.

All applications shall be submitted on a form supplied by the Department and shall contain the following information:
(1) The name, address, and telephone number of each proprietor of the business seeking a registration.
(2) The business name, physical address, and telephone number of the single, fixed location for which a registration is sought.
(3) A single name and mailing address authorized by each proprietor to receive all communications and notices (the "Authorized Address") required by, authorized by, or convenient to the enforcement of this chapter. If an authorized address is not supplied, each proprietor shall be understood to consent to the provision of notice at the business address specified in subparagraph 2 above. (4) Proof that the location for which a tobacco retailer's registration is sought has been issued a valid state tobacco retailer's license by the California State Board of Equalization.
(5) Whether or not any proprietor or any agent or employee of the proprietor has admitted violating, or has been found to have violated, this chapter and, if so, the dates and locations of all such violations within the previous five years. (6) Such other information as the Department deems necessary for the administration or enforcement of this chapter as specified on the application form required by this section.
(b) A registered tobacco retailer shall inform the Department in writing of any change in the information submitted on an application for a tobacco retailer's registration within ten (10) business days of a change.
(c) All information specified in an application pursuant to this section shall be subject to disclosure under the California Public Records Act (California Government Code section 7920.000, et seq.) or any other applicable law, subject to the laws' 27 15.b
Packet Pg. 190 Attachment: Attachment 2 (5978 : Provide Feedback on Draft Ordinance Regarding Smoke Shops And) exemptions.
(d) Applications for a tobacco retailer permit shall include a non-refundable application fee in an amount established by resolution of the city council to reimburse the city for staff time required to evaluate the application, establish conditions of approval, and to monitor the permitted activity.

Sec. 5.55.070. Issuance of registration.

Upon the receipt of a complete application for a tobacco retailer's registration and any application fee set by a resolution of the city council, the Department shall issue a registration unless substantial evidence demonstrates that one or more of the following bases for denial exists:
(a) The information presented in the application is inaccurate, false, or misleading.

Intentionally supplying inaccurate, false, or misleading information shall be a violation of this chapter.
(b) The application seeks authorization for tobacco retailing at a location for which this chapter prohibits issuance of tobacco retailer registrations. (c) The application seeks authorization for tobacco retailing for a proprietor to whom this chapter prohibits a registration to be issued.
(d) The application seeks authorization for tobacco retailing that is prohibited pursuant to this chapter (e.g., mobile vending)], that is unlawful pursuant to this code, or that is unlawful pursuant to any other law.

Sec. 5.55.080. Registration renewal and expiration.
(a) Renewal of Registration. A tobacco retailer's registration is invalid if its term has expired. The term of a tobacco retailer registration is one year. Each tobacco retailer shall apply for the renewal of his or her tobacco retailer's registration no earlier than ninety (90) days and no later than thirty (30) days prior to expiration of the term. Except as otherwise provided in this section, the application process set forth in Section 5.55.060 and the registration issuance process set forth in Section

5.55.070 apply to renewal registration applications.
(b) Expiration of Registration. A tobacco retailer's registration that is not timely renewed shall expire at the end of its term. To renew a registration not timely renewed pursuant to subparagraph A, the proprietor must:
(1) Submit the registration application renewal form and any associated renewal application fees; and
(2) Submit a signed affidavit affirming that the proprietor:
28 15.b
Packet Pg. 191 Attachment: Attachment 2 (5978 : Provide Feedback on Draft Ordinance Regarding Smoke Shops And) (i) Has not sold and will not sell any tobacco product or tobacco paraphernalia after the registration expiration date and before the registration is renewed; or
(ii) Has waited the appropriate ineligibility period established for tobacco retailing without a registration, as set forth in Section 5.55.130(A) of this chapter, before seeking renewal of the registration.

Sec. 5.55.090. Registration nontransferable.
(a) A tobacco retailer's registration may not be assigned or otherwise transferred from one person to another or from one location to another. A new tobacco retailer's registration is required to accomplish either change.
(b) Notwithstanding any other provision of this chapter, prior violations of this chapter at a location shall continue to be counted against a location and registration ineligibility periods shall continue to apply to a location unless:
(1) The location has been fully transferred to a new proprietor or fully transferred to entirely new proprietors; and
(2) The new proprietor(s) provide the city with clear and convincing evidence that the new proprietor(s) have acquired or is acquiring the location in an arm's length transaction.

Sec. 5.55.100. Registration conveys a limited, conditional privilege.

Nothing in this chapter shall be construed to grant any person obtaining and maintaining a tobacco retailer's registration any status or right other than the limited conditional privilege to act as a tobacco retailer at the location in the city identified on the face of the registration. For example, nothing in this chapter shall be construed to render inapplicable, supersede, or apply in lieu of, any other provision of applicable law, including but not limited to, any provision of this code, including without limitation chapter 6.40 and title 19, and any condition or limitation on smoking in an enclosed place of employment pursuant to California Labor Code section 6404.5. For example, obtaining a tobacco retailer registration does not make the retailer a "retail or wholesale tobacco shop" for the purposes of California Labor Code section 6404.5.

Sec. 5.55.110. Compliance monitoring.
(a) Compliance with this chapter shall be monitored by the Department. In addition, any peace officer may enforce the penal provisions of this chapter. The city may designate any number of additional persons to monitor compliance with this chapter.
(b) Compliance checks shall be conducted so as to allow the Department to determine, at a minimum, if a tobacco retailer is complying with laws regulating youth access to tobacco. When the Department deems appropriate, the 29 15.b
Packet Pg. 192 Attachment: Attachment 2 (5978 : Provide Feedback on Draft Ordinance Regarding Smoke Shops And) compliance checks shall determine compliance with other laws applicable to tobacco retailing.
(c) The city shall not enforce any law establishing a minimum age for tobacco purchases or possession against a person who otherwise might be in violation of such law because of the person's age (hereinafter "Youth Decoy") if the potential violation occurs when:
(a) The youth decoy is participating in a compliance check supervised by a peace officer or a code enforcement official of the city;
(b) The youth decoy is acting as an agent of a person designated by the city to monitor compliance with this chapter; or
(c) The youth decoy is participating in a compliance check funded in part, either directly or indirectly through subcontracting, by the city or the California Department of Health Care Services.

Sec. 5.55.120. Revocation of registration.
(a) Revocation of Registration for Violation.
(1) All registrations issued hereunder, shall operate in compliance with Chapter

5.55, this Code, and all the laws of the state and of the United States of America relating to tobacco retailing. Upon failure to comply, any and all registrations issued hereunder may be revoked by the city manager, subject to the provisions of subsection (a)(2) of this section.

Any license obtained by fraud or misrepresentation will automatically be null and void, with forfeiture of any and all monies paid to the city for the registration.
(2) Any registration issued for a tobacco retailer may be revoked by the city manager at any time for:
a. operating in a manner adverse to the public health, welfare and safety; or
b. conducting retail sales in a manner adverse to the public health, welfare and safety; or
c. operating in violation of this chapter, this Code, or state or federal law. (3) Prior to any revocation of a registration, the city manager shall, by their order, give the retailer 15-days’ notice of intent to revoke such registration. Within 15 days after any such order, the licensee may request to appeal and show cause before the city council why such license should not be revoked. Such hearing shall be scheduled at the next regular council meeting, or with five or more days’ notice to appellant at a special council meeting. Upon the failure of the retailer to appear at such meeting, or, if after appearance and hearing 30 15.b
Packet Pg. 193 Attachment: Attachment 2 (5978 : Provide Feedback on Draft Ordinance Regarding Smoke Shops And) before the council, the council shall find good and sufficient cause for revocation, the registration shall be revoked.
(4) If such an appeal is made, it shall stay enforcement of the appealed action.

Upon conclusion of an appeal hearing, the city council shall do one (1) of the following:
(i.) Terminate the proceeding and dismiss the matter, thereby reinstating the registration;
(ii.) Affirm the revocation; or
(iii.) Modify the revocation based upon evidence adduced at the hearing on the appeal.
(5) The decision by the city council shall be the final decision of the city and not subject to further administrative appeal. The decision of the city council shall be served on the appellant and shall be subject to judicial review in the manner specified in Code of Civil Procedure Section 1094.5. The timely filing and diligent prosecution of an appeal to the city council is an administrative remedy which must be exhausted before judicial review may be sought. An appeal to the city council is not available for a revocation made pursuant to subsection C. below for registrations wrongly issued.
(6) Upon any revocation of a registration, no refund of any registration fee shall be made and the fee shall be forfeited to the city.
(7) No tobacco retailing shall be conducted or operated in any manner at that location during any period of registration revocation.
(b) New Registration at a Location After Revocation.
(1) After revocation for a first violation of this chapter at a location, no new registration may be issued for that location until three (3) months have passed from the date of revocation.
(2) After revocation for a second violation of this chapter at a location within any sixty-month period, no new registration may be issued for that location until six (6) months have passed from the date of second revocation. (3) After revocation for a third violation of this chapter at a location within any sixty-month period, no new registration may be issued for that location until one (1) year has passed from the date of third revocation. (4) After revocation for four (4) or more violations of this chapter at a location within any sixty-month period, no new registration may be issued for the 31 15.b
Packet Pg. 194 Attachment: Attachment 2 (5978 : Provide Feedback on Draft Ordinance Regarding Smoke Shops And) location until five (5) years have passed from the date of fourth or subsequent revocation.
(c) Revocation of Registration Wrongly Issued. A tobacco retailer's registration shall be revoked if the Department finds, after the registered tobacco retailer is afforded notice and an opportunity to be heard, that one (1) or more of the bases for denial of a registration under Section 5.55.070 existed at the time application was made or at any time before the registration issued. The decision by the Department shall be the final decision of the city and not subject to administrative appeal. Such a revocation shall be without prejudice to the filing of a new registration application.

COUNCIL AGENDA ITEM
AGENDA MATTER:
860 WEST MAIN STREET - GENERAL PLAN AMENDMENT (PGPA-25-0001) AND ZONING DISTRICT CHANGE (PZCA-25-0001) ORDINANCE INTRODUCTION AND FIRST READING EXECUTIVE SUMMARY:

EXECUTIVE SUMMARY: At the request of Ouhnar, LLC, staff brings forward for consideration a General Plan amendment request in conjunction with a Zoning District Change request involving the parcel located at 860 West Main Street Barstow, CA 92311 (APN #0182-101-01-0000). The current zoning for the parcel is classified as C (Commercial) under the City’s Zoning and General Plan Land Use maps. The request for approval of a General Plan Amendment (PGPA-25-0001) and Zoning District Change (PZCA25-0001) seeks to change the land use designation and zoning district to DU (Diverse Use).

DISCUSSION:

SITE INFORMATION:

Property Owner/Applicant:

OUHNAR LLC (owner), and Narbik Babakhanian (applicant).

Location:

Surrounding Zoning and Uses:

North: C (Commercial) / Studio 841 Salon; Desert Ambulance East: C (Commercial Use) /Topper Motel
South: SFR (Single Family Residential) / Existing Residences West: C (Commercial)/ Medical Office
CEQA FINDING:

This project qualifies as categorically exempt from the provisions of the California Environmental Quality Act (CEQA), as amended pursuant to California Administrative Code CEQA Guidelines Section 15301 (Existing Facilities), Section 15302 (Replacement or Reconstruction), Section 15332 (In-Fill Development Projects) (In-Fill Development Projects), and Section 15061 (Common Sense).

DISCUSSION:

The parcel at 860 West Main Street has long been utilized for a commercial motel, similar to uses surrounding the property. Applicant, Ouhnar LLC recently purchased the property and seeks to convert the existing 17-unit motel into studio, one-bedroom, and two-bedroom units for long term tenants.

Improvements include recessed lighting, stand-up showers, individual AC & heating units, water heaters, 16 Packet Pg. 199

COUNCIL AGENDA ITEM
kitchens with tile flooring, and separate gas and electric meters. In addition to the renovations, re-piping of water, gas, and sewer lines is proposed as well as the replacement of electrical panels to comply with current building codes.

The site’s current zoning and land use designation of C (Commercial) does not permit residential uses in accordance with Barstow Municipal Chapter 19.16 regulations. To address this, the applicant has submitted a General Plan Amendment application (PGPA-25-0001) and a Zoning District Change application (PZCA-25-0001) to request a change in designation to DU (Diverse Use). This general plan designation and zoning district allows for various uses, including either residential, commercial, or the intermingling of both. The DU (Diverse Use) land use designation and zoning district, if applied to this parcel would allow for the applicant’s proposal.

Per Barstow Municipal Code Chapter 19.34 General Plan Amendments, Sec. 19.34.010 (a) “an amendment to any element of the General Plan may, in accordance with the procedures set forth in this chapter, be made whenever the public necessity, general welfare, changing urban socio-economic development, or good planning practice justifies such action.” Consistent with Chapter 19.32 Zoning and Zoning Ordinance Amendments which states, “A zoning ordinance amendment to this title or zoned district classification change on the zoning ordinance map may, in accordance with the procedures set forth in this chapter, be made whenever the public necessity, general welfare, consistency with the General Plan, or good planning practice justifies such action.”.

Prior to the filing of a formal application for an amendment to any element of the General Plan, applicants are required to submit a letter providing details behind the request. Attached is a copy of Mr.

Babakhanian’s initial request letter, which was brought forward to the regularly scheduled Planning Commission meeting held on January 27, 2025. Following review of the initial request and associated letter, the Planning Commission voted to approve the request in principle. Approval in principal does not constitute approval of a General Plan amendment, but determines that further action can be taken on the request.

It should be noted, if an applicant has received an approval, in principle, by the Planning Commission on a General Plan amendment, they may within 40 days file an application for a General Plan amendment.

The Formal General Plan amendment application and associated fees for this proposal were received on February 18, 2025 along with the Zoning District Change application and fees.

The Planning Commission completed its final review of the proposed General Plan amendment and Zoning District Change at the regularly scheduled meeting on March 24, 2025, recommending approval to the City Council.

Staff supports the efforts of property owners looking to aid in our City’s housing supply and contribute to the City’s Regional Housing Needs Allocation (RHNA) and requests City Council review, evaluation, and vote.

RECOMMENDATION:

A RESOLUTION OF THE PLANNING COMMISSION OF THE CITY OF BARSTOW RECOMMENDING CITY COUNCIL (1) ADOPT A RESOLUTION APPROVING A GENERAL

PLAN AMENDMENT TO ALLOW FOR A GENERAL LAND USE DESIGNATION CHANGE TO 860 WEST MAIN STREET, BARSTOW, CA (APN 0182-101-01-0000) FROM

COMMERCIAL (C) TO DIVERSE USE (DU) AND FINDING THAT THE GENERAL PLAN AMENDMENT IS EXEMPT FROM CEQA; AND (2) ADOPT AN ORDINANCE APPROVING

A ZONING TEXT AMENDMENT TO ALLOW FOR A ZONING DISTRICT CHANGE TO 860 WEST MAIN STREET, BARSTOW, CA (APN 0182-101-01-0000) FROM

COMMERCIAL (C) TO DIVERSE USE (DU) AND FINDING THAT THE

ORDINANCE IS EXEMPT FROM CEQA
WHEREAS, the City of Barstow has received an application to amend the General Plan designation and allow a Zone District Change of approximately 0.36 acres located at 860 West Main Street, Barstow, CA 92311 (APN 0182-101-01-0000) (Site) so that the Site’s existing motel can be renovated and converted to residential multifamily housing units of naturally occurring affordable housing (Project); and
WHEREAS, the Project proponent is Narbik Babakhanian as Manager of Ouhnar LLC, 1401 21st Street, Suite R, Sacramento, CA 95811 (Applicant); and WHEREAS, the property owner of the Site is Ouhnar LLC, 1401 21st Street, Suite R, Sacramento, CA 95811 (Owner); and
WHEREAS, the Site has General Plan and Zoning District designations of Commercial (C); and WHEREAS, on or about December 11, 2024, Applicant made an initial request to amend the General Plan to designate the Site as Diverse Use (DU) in accordance with Barstow Municipal Code (BMC) Section 19.34.020(a); and
WHEREAS, on or about January 27, 2025, the Planning Commission of the City of Barstow (Planning Commission) approved in principle Applicant’s request to amend the General Plan pursuant to BMC 19.34.020(b); and
WHEREAS, on or about February 18, 2025, Applicant filed an application for the City to amend approximately 0.36 acres of the General Plan to designate the Site as Diverse Use (DU) (“General Plan Amendment”) and to allow a Zoning District Change to designate the Site as Diverse Use (DU) (“Rezone”) in accordance with BMC Sections 19.32.020 and 19.34.030; and WHEREAS, on March 24, 2025, the Planning Commission commenced a duly noticed public hearing and received and considered all public testimony, documentary evidence and staff recommendations submitted at such public hearing regarding the General Plan Amendment and Rezone; and
WHEREAS, all legal prerequisites to the adoption of this Resolution have occurred; NOW, THEREFORE, BE IT RESOLVED, that the Planning Commission of the City of Barstow does hereby recommend that the City Council of the City of Barstow adopt a resolution approving the the General Plan Amendment, pass an ordinance allowing the Rezone, and find that the

adoption of said resolution and passage of said ordinance are exempt from CEQA, based on the following findings:

1. The Site has one existing structure, a motel, and if approved, Applicant proposes renovations and upgrades to the building. More specifically, Applicant intends to convert the motel into multifamily residential units of naturally occurring affordable housing.

2. The public necessity, general welfare, changing urban socio-economics developments, and good planning practices justify the General Plan Amendment and Rezone because they will allow for the creation of naturally occurring affordable housing from an existing structure without the need for new construction.

3. Adoption of the General Plan Amendment and Rezone are in the public interest because they will increase the City’s affordable housing stock.

4. The General Plan Amendment is not a substantial amendment to the City’s General Plan because it only changes the general land use designation for one parcel of real property within the City.

5. The Rezone is to create conformance with the land use designations, policies, and standards of the General Plan. The requested Zoning District Change is required in order to allow for Applicant’s proposal to convert the existing motel into residential units. Under Commercial zoning, residential uses are not permitted. Under the Barstow Municipal Code, the purpose of Diverse Use zoning “is to implement the policies of the general plan, to encourage a harmonious intermingling of business and residential structures, to provide for an increased variety and intermixture of residential, commercial, and office activities, and to enhance the pedestrian usage and character of this district.” Approval of the Rezone would allow for this cohesion.

Additionally, several General Plan policies and goals would be served, including, without limitation: Policy 2.C of the City of Barstow’s General Plan, Land Use Element provides that the City “shall encourage the enhancement of existing developed properties;” and Goal HE-2 of the General Plan’s Housing Element is to conserve and improve the condition of the City’s existing housing stock.

6. Applicant has filed both a General Plan Amendment and Rezone request, should both be approved, the Site land use designation and zoning district will be consistent with the City of Barstow General Plan.

7. The General Plan Amendment and Rezone are exempt from the California Environmental Quality Act (CEQA) under the following sections of Title 14 of the California Code of Regulations: (a) Sections 15301 (Existing Facilities) of the CEQA Guidelines, which exempts the repair, maintenance, and minor alteration of existing private structures and facilities involving negligible or no expansion of existing or former use; (b) Section 15302 (Replacement or Reconstruction) which exempts the reconstruction of existing structures and facilities where the new structure will be located on the same site as the structure replaced and will have substantially the same purpose and capacity as the structure replaced; (c) Section 15332 (In-Fill Development Projects) which exempts proposed development that occurs within city limits on a project site of no more than five acres substantially surrounded by urban uses; and (d) Section 15061(b)(3) (Common Sense) which exempts projects where there is no possibility that the activity may have a significant effect on the environment.

Having made these findings, the Planning Commission hereby recommends that the City Council:

1. Adopt a resolution approving the General Plan Amendment;

2. Adopt an ordinance allowing the Rezone;

3. Find that the adoption of a resolution approving the General Plan Amendment is exempt from CEQA; and

4. Find that the adoption of an ordinance allowing the Rezone is exempt from CEQA.

Finally, Section 15061(b)(3) (Common Sense) which exempts projects where there is no possibility that the activity may have a significant effect on the environment, as the proposed General Plan land use designation change is for an existing commercial site less than five acres within an urban uses area.

The Site has one existing structure, a motel, and if approved, Applicant proposes renovations and upgrades to the building. More specifically, Applicant intends to convert the motel into multifamily residential units of naturally occurring affordable housing.

Proposal associated with the Zoning District Change and General Plan Amendment meets the referenced findings; and
WHEREAS, the City Council orders the Community Development Department staff file the Notice of Exemption for CEQA under Article 14 California Code of Regulations Section 15062, citing the exemptions under Guidelines Sections 15301, 15302, 15332, and 15061(b)(3) within the required timing post City Council approval of the requested Zone District Change and proposed General Plan Amendment; and WHEREAS, on May 6, 2025, the City Council commenced a duly noticed public hearing and received and considered all public testimony, documentary evidence and staff recommendations submitted at such public hearing regarding the proposed Zoning District Change and General Plan Amendment as recommended by the Planning Commission at hearings on January 27, 2025 and March 24, 2025 and continued the matter; and
WHEREAS, per Barstow Municipal Code Chapter 19.34 (General Plan Amendments), an amendment to the General Plan land use map may be approved only if the following findings are made, as applicable to the type of amendment in compliance with State law (Government Code Section 65800, et. seq.). The City Council hereby determines as follows:

1. Section 19.34.080 of the Barstow Municipal Code requires that all General Plan Amendments be processed in accordance with the Government Code.

The City Council finds that the proposed General Plan Amendment is necessary and desirable for the future development of Barstow as mandated pursuant to State Law, specifically Government Code Section 65300 et seq. and is further justified by good planning practice. The City Council also finds that the proposed change in General Plan land use designation for the project site from Commercial (C) to Diverse Use (DU) is beneficial to the public’s welfare because it will allow economically productive use of the project site by a variety of potential future land uses, including commercial enterprises which would generate tax revenue to pay for City services to the community and potential residential development which would create additional opportunities for community members to live and work in the City of Barstow. The City Council also finds that the proposed land use designation amendment is not internally inconsistent with the other provisions of the General Plan, as no section prohibits a diverse use land use designation at the project site and the list of land uses allowed under the diverse use land use designation are compatible with the surrounding land use designations.

NOW, THERFORE, the City Council of the City of Barstow does hereby resolve as follows:

16.c
Packet Pg. 207 Attachment: CC Reso - 860 W. Main St. (5962 : 860 W. Main St. - Gen. Plan Amendment - Zone Change Request) 331421.1 3
SECTION 1. Recitals. The City Council finds that all the facts, findings, and conclusions set forth above in this Resolution are true and correct.

SECTION 2. Approval of General Plan Amendment. The City Council hereby approves PGPA-25-0001 changing the General Plan land use designation from Commercial (C) to Diverse Use (DU) for the parcel located at 860 West Main Street Barstow, CA.

The City Council adopts the General Plan Amendment subject to the final conditions of approval attached as Exhibit 1. The City Council hereby directs the City Manager or his designee to prepare and make publicly available the updated General Plan land use designation map reflecting this change.

SECTION 3. Severability Clause. Should any section, clause, or provision of this Resolution be declared by the Courts to be invalid, the same shall not affect the validity of the Resolution as a whole, or parts thereof, other than the part so declared to be invalid.

SECTION 4. CEQA. The City Council finds the adoption of this resolution is exempt from review under the California Environmental Quality Act pursuant to Section 15301 (Existing Facilities) of the CEQA Guidelines, which exempts the restoration or rehabilitation of deteriorated or damaged structures, facilities, or mechanical equipment to meet current standards of public health and safety; and Section 15302 (Replacement or Reconstruction) which exempts proposals where the new structure will be located on the same site as the structure replaced and will have substantially the same purpose and capacity as the structure replaced; and Section 15332 (In-Fill Development Projects) which exempts proposed development that occurs within city limits on a project site of no more than five acres substantially surrounded by urban uses, as the proposed General Plan land use designation change is for an existing commercial site less than five acres within an urban uses area. Finally, Section 15061(b)(3) (Common Sense) which exempts projects where there is no possibility that the activity may have a significant effect on the environment as the proposed General Plan land use designation change is for an existing commercial site less than five acres within an urban uses area.

The Site has one existing structure, a motel, and if approved, Applicant proposes renovations and upgrades to the building. More specifically, Applicant intends to convert the motel into multifamily residential units of naturally occurring affordable housing.

Proposal associated with the Zoning District Change and General Plan Amendment meets the referenced findings; and
The City Council finds that the Notice of Exemption prepared for the Zone District Change and General Plan Amendment demonstrates there is no potential for significant environmental impacts associated with the project, which changes the General Plan Land Use Designation and applicable zone for an existing site and is exempt from review under the California Environmental Quality Act Guidelines, sections 15301, 15302, 15332, and 15061(b)(3).

WHEREAS, per Barstow Municipal Code Chapter 19.32 (Zoning and Zoning Ordinance Amendments), a Zoning District Change may be approved only if the following findings are made, as applicable to the type of amendment in compliance with State law (Government Code Section 65800, et. seq.). The City Council hereby determines as follows:

FINDINGS
Chapter 19.32 (Zoning and Zoning Ordinance Amendments) of the Barstow Municipal Code (BMC) allows the Planning Commission to recommend approval of a proposed Zoning Text Amendment provided that the following findings are made:

1. The commission shall make a finding and determine if the proposed zoning ordinance or zoned district classification change is in conformance with the land use designation, policies, and standards of the General Plan; The requested Zoning District Change is required in order to allow for applicant’s proposal to convert the existing motel in to residential units. Under Commercial zoning, residential uses are not permitted. Diverse Use zoning defined in the Barstow Municipal Code as The purpose of the DU diverse use district is to implement the policies of the general plan, to encourage a harmonious intermingling of business and residential structures, to provide for an increased variety and intermixture of residential, commercial, and office activities, and to enhance the pedestrian usage and character of this district. Approval of PZCA-25-0001 would allow for this cohesion. The City Council also finds that the proposed zone change for the project site from Commercial (C) to Diverse Use (DU) is beneficial to the public’s welfare because it will allow economically productive use of the project site by a variety of potential future land uses, including commercial enterprises which would generate tax revenue to pay for City services to the community and potential residential development which would create additional opportunities for community members to live and work in the City of Barstow. The City Council also finds that the proposed zone change is not internally inconsistent with the other provisions of the General Plan or Barstow Municipal Code, as no section prohibits a diverse use land use designation at the project site and the list of land uses allowed under the diverse use zone are compatible with the surrounding land use designations and zones.

2. No zoning ordinance amendments or zoned district change shall be heard by the commission, nor any application filed unless such change is consistent with the adopted land use element of the General Plan. If an application for a zoning ordinance amendment or zoned district change is not consistent with the General Plan as determined by the director of community development, the applicant shall first file an application for a General Plan amendment, subject to the provisions of chapter 19.34 in order that such consistency would be achieved if the zoning ordinance amendment or zoned district change were to be approved by commission action.

Applicant has filed both a General Plan Amendment and Zone Change request, should both be approved 860 West Main Street land use designation and zoning district will be consistent with City of Barstow General Plan as amended.

NOW THEREFORE, the City Council of the City of Barstow hereby ordains as follows:

SECTION 1. Recitals. The City Council finds that all the facts, findings, and conclusions set forth above in this Resolution are true and correct.

Barstow, CA from Commercial (C) to Diverse Use (DU).

The City Council adopts the Zoning Text Amendment subject to the final conditions of approval attached as Exhibit 1. The City Council hereby directs the City Manager or his designee to prepare and make publicly available the updated General Plan land use designation map reflecting this change.

SECTION 3. Severability Clause. Should any section, clause, or provision of this Resolution be declared by the Courts to be invalid, the same shall not affect the validity of the Resolution as a whole, or parts thereof, other than the part so declared to be invalid.

Finally, Section 15061(b)(3) (Common Sense) which exempts projects where there is no possibility that the activity may have a significant effect on the environment as the proposed General Plan land use designation change is for an existing commercial site less than five acres within an urban uses area.

The Site has one existing structure, a motel, and if approved, Applicant proposes renovations and upgrades to the building. More specifically, Applicant intends to convert the motel into multifamily residential units of naturally occurring affordable housing.

The City Council finds that the Notice of Exemption prepared for the Zoning Text Amendment and General Plan Amendment demonstrates there is no potential for significant environmental impacts associated with the project, which changes the General Plan Land Use Designation and applicable zone for an existing site and is exempt from review under the California Environmental Quality Act Guidelines, sections 15301, 15302, 15332, and 15061(b)(3).
