Lucy Vincent acknowledged that cannabis is legal and people can choose to use it.

Mark Vincent wrote an article titled, "Bishop Stinks" and appreciated his meeting with Police Derr to discuss the issues he faced living in close quarters to those who did smoke cannabis and the effects it had on his daughter and to his family. Mark Vincent spoke in favor of this ordinance and shared some topics and resources for Council to consider in making some modifications to the proposed ordinance as currently written.

No further public comments were made and the Mayor closed the public hearing.

After a lengthy discussion by Council on several changes they would like to see made to the proposed ordinance, the Council directed staff to make the modifications discussed and to bring it back for Council's consideration to approve for its second reading and adoption.

87 Agenda Item: 14.E
Date of Meeting: October 28, 2024
Department: Finance
To: City Council
From: Ethan Aukee
Subject: C.O.P.S. Fund Budget Adjustment
Prepared On: September 25, 2024

STAFF REPORT
Background/History:

The FY 2024-25 C.O.P.S. Fund (Fund 033) budget was programmed based on assumed FY 2023-24 revenue and expense amounts. During the FY 2023-24 accrual period, Fund 033 earned an unexpected $69,296.84 in revenue. Additionally, during the accrual period, Fund 033 earned $52,420.27 pertaining to the prior year (FY 2022-23).

This unexpected revenue resulted in an increased 2024-25 starting fund balance, and therefore, dictates a need to spend more money within the fund than initially budgeted. The reason why the increased fund balance necessitates increased spending is that this fund is unique based on the concepts that the funding is restricted to specific purposes, and year over year fund balance should be maintained within a specific spectrum.

Analysis/Discussion:

The Finance Director and Police Chief met to discuss Fund 033, mainly focused on a Police Department priority spending list that qualifies for spending within the fund.

Following discussion, the below items were identified:

1. CLEAR Suspect ID and Investigation Software. This software would cost $600/month and $7,200/year. The software was not included in the Police Department's RAN budget for FY 2024-25, but the intention would be to include in future years. Inclusion and approval in RAN would result in reimbursement for this expense in future years. If not approved by RAN, our intention would be to continue to pay for the software in Fund 033.

2. SWAT Gear. Bishop Police Department staff that serve on the area's SWAT Team are in need of gear upfitting. The gear upfitting would cost roughly $5,000/officer and the total cost would be roughly $16,000.

3. License Plate Readers. The Police Department recommends the purchase of two license plate readers. The total cost for installation is $1,300 and each reader would cost $3,000 per year. This item was not included in the Police Department's RAN budget for FY 2024-25, but the intention would be to include in future years. Inclusion 88 and approval in RAN would result in reimbursement for this expense in future years. If not approved by RAN, our intention would be to continue to pay for this item in Fund 033.

If all three proposed items are approved, FY 2024-25 Fund 033 spending would increase by:

1. CLEAR: 8 months, $4,800

2. SWAT Gear: $16,000

3. License Plate Readers: $7,300
If we assume inclusion in future RAN budgets where applicable, there would be no recurring costs in Fund 033 budgets for subsequent years.

Economic Impacts:

No significant economic impacts.

Budget Impacts:

FY 2024-25 budget impacts are as follows:

Expense account 033-033-52018 (Special Department Supplies) increase in the amount of $16,000
Expense account 033-033-52045 (IT) increase in the amount of $12,100 Total increased spending within Fund 033 in the amount of $28,100.

Legal Review:

Legal review is not required.

Recommended Action:

City Council to review and approve the proposed budget adjustment.

The new mural honors the lives of two fallen heroes of the PD, Richard Perkins and Mike Mairs. (Pictures attached of the old mural.)
B. PROJECT GOALS:
1 - To replace an outdated and damaged mural
2 - To create a new mural which offers a more positive narrative of community service Both goals were achieved with great success! The wall has been repaired and the new mural, created by local artist Dave Titus, is a vibrant mural in a contemporary style that honors and celebrates Officers Richard Perkins and Michael Mairs. During the recent mural dedication event held by Bishop PD the new mural was celebrated with community members and friends and families of the officers honored through the piece. The new mural, which expresses a narrative focused on community service, care and kindness was welcomed by Bishop PD Chief Derr in its reflection and honoring of two officers who, according to all who knew them, were exemplary police officers whose commitment to their community came across through their words and actions in all situations. (Pictures attached of the new mural.)
The mural has been received well by the community and many members of the community have shared their appreciation for this new piece of vibrant art in the downtown area of Bishop.

2023/24 Grant In Support

FINAL REPORT
Name of Organization: Eastern Sierra Artists dba C5 Studios Community Arts Center
Project Title: Art in Storefronts 2024
A. SERVICES PROVIDED - Describe the project/program of services and how it benefited the community. From the evaluation method used to measure the success of the project/program implemented, describe the outcome and its impact on the community.

C5 Studios Community Arts Center requested funding to support the project, Art in Storefronts, to bring art to vacant or neglected buildings in downtown Bishop and the appearance and aesthetics of these empty storefronts.

Our goal was to provide opportunities for artists to display their work and share it with the community, utilize and transform unused spaces, and to create an art walk in downtown, including a brochure/map of the participating artist’s work. We also wanted to give opportunity to the storefront owners to describe their business to the community which was included in the brochure.

This project launched on May 18th, 2024 with an Art in Storefronts opening art walk.

This event brought the community together to celebrate the installations as well as the artists and storefronts. The opening art walk was guided by our directors with two opportunities to take groups down Main St.
187
Our method of evaluation was to have an open public call for artists to calculate how many proposals we received, create tours to see how many people wanted to participate in the art walk, and provide a comment box. We received a lot of positive verbal feedback from the storefront owners, artists, and the public during our opening event.

We have impacted the public to walk Main St. and enjoy the local art. This project brings more foot traffic to Bishop and enlightens the observers with not only visual art but written word. The viewers that participated in the art tours were moved by the artists work, the artists stories and descriptions creating a connection in the community between art and the public.

B. PROJECT GOALS - Describe how the project/program achieved the goals and objectives identified in the submitted funding application.

Our objectives and how they were achieved are outlined below:

1. Provide opportunities for artists to display their work and share it with the community.

This objective was achieved by having an open public call for artists. We received 11 artist proposals. We then determined what proposals worked well with the storefronts we were able to work with. Stipends for the artists covered their materials and time and let the artists create for this project.

2. To utilize and transform unused spaces.

This objective was achieved by getting in contact with storefront owners.

We were able to work with 6 storefronts and had 8 windows for installations. Organizing which art proposal would work for each storefront, as well as communicating with the storefronts to plan when and how long the installations would be displayed for. This gave the opportunity to transform the storefronts into interesting and whimsical art pieces.
188

3. To create an art walk in downtown, including a brochure/map of the participating artist’s work.

This objective was achieved by designing a brochure that not only includes the participating artist’s work but included the storefront’s description and a map. This brochure was designed and printed for the Art in Storefronts opening event on May 18th, 2024. We printed 100 brochures for the event and to have at C5 Studios afterwards for anyone that missed out or wanted to enjoy the art walk at a later time.

We also put more information of the artist’s work on our website if it was provided, as well as providing the brochure on our website.

C. NUMBER SERVED BY GRANT - Describe the target population served by the project/program, and the number of city residents as well as the toal number of people served by the grant funds during the reporting period.

The target population served by the project was storefront owners, artists, and the public of locals and tourists of Bishop.

Total number of city residents served (participants: storefronts and artists) - 17 Total number of people served (people who came to the opening or went on a tour) - 150

Project Title
Eastside Student Center — Grant-in-Support Final Report 2023-24 195

SERVICES PROVIDED
Describe the project/program or services provided and how it benefitted the community.

From the evaluation method used to measure the success of the project/program implemented, describe the outcome and its impact on the community.

Funds from the City of Bishop Grant-in-Support provided to Eastside Student Center were used to create, from start to finish, an outdoor patio space for student use during Eastside’s hours of operation. Funds were also allocated to support a kitchen revitalization project at Eastside, with additional funds coming from the Rotary Community Foundation. Thanks to funds from the City of Bishop the patio space and kitchen now provide comfortable spaces for community youth to engage in fun, healthy, and educational activities during critical out-of-school hours.

Since the patio project completion, students are now able to spend time outside in a comfortable space. The added space allows students to complete homework in the fresh air, engage in different activities and games, and take space when necessary. The patio is also equipped with small garden beds, which students have planted and cared for throughout the spring and summer months. The patio has also increased our space, which allows for a more comfortable environment for students to gather, as there are more space options and areas to spread out.

The kitchen update has tripled the amount of counter space for students to engage in cooking and baking clubs and classes. Updated countertop appliances, cook and bakeware, and a larger sink have allowed for more diverse baking and cooking projects, and has increased engagement and enjoyment of the kitchen space. Students also worked together to create a cabinet mural, and a mural on the north kitchen wall.

Evaluation Method from Grant Application Narrative:

Eastside Student Center will evaluate the success of this project using two measures: increase in space to allow for more students, and an increase in the diversity of programming offered to the youth in attendance.

The extra patio space will allow for us to host more students on a daily basis and move students off of our waitlist. With the extra space, we will be able to offer more programming specific to being outside, along with creating an additional gathering space for clubs and other organizations to use our space. The revitalized kitchen space will allow us to offer and host cooking and baking classes on a daily/weekly basis and draw different students to the center.

Eastside Student Center — Grant-in-Support Final Report 2023-24 196 Describe how the project/program achieved the goals and objectives identified in the submitted funding application:

This project achieved the goals outlined in the funding application in the following ways:

Created a welcoming, comfortable outdoor patio space for youth to use during ESC hours-of-operation.

Expanded and diversified usable space for Eastside Student Center programs.

Created a much more usable kitchen space for students to engage in cooking and baking classes.

Expanded community reach by creating more space for more students, and diversified program offerings for a wider range of students.

Project Goals Outlined in Grant Application Narrative:

The Eastside Student Center Patio Project and Kitchen Update will create an outdoor patio space for students to enjoy while attending the center, as well as an updated kitchen space where students can engage in cooking and baking classes. The patio will be attached to the building at 162 W Line St., and will provide much needed outdoor space for the students and staff. The patio will extend between 6 and 8 feet into the alley, and run the length of the building (approximately 54 feet). The patio will be fenced in, and will have garden beds, seating, games, and areas for students to complete homework and activities. The asphalt will be covered in artificial turf to create a clean and comfortable ground surface. The kitchen will be located at the back of the building, and will include updated cabinets and storage, along with updated cooking/baking appliances, flooring, and cookware/bakeware for student use.

By providing this outdoor space, students will have access to fresh air, opportunities to learn about gardening and food production, as well as engage in fun activities and games that can not take place indoors. The kitchen will provide a space for students to learn about cooking and baking, and provide opportunities for expanded programming at the center.

The patio space will incorporate a privacy fence, and unique and innovative seating for students, including colorful benches, planter boxes, and interesting geometric patterns. The kitchen will have upgraded cabinets and countertops, provide more storage and prep space, and upgrade countertop appliances for baking and cooking.

STAFF REPORT
Background/History:

The job descriptions for two leadership positions in the Public Works Department need to be updated and brought to current city standards. The Superintendent position has been vacant since February 2020 and the job description has not been revised since 2012. The Supervisor position is currently encumbered, but the job description has not been updated since 2001.

In 2020, while the department’s leadership staff was transitioning, a new supervisory position, Lead Maintenance Worker, was created. Since the lead position was created, the Superintendent position has remained vacant. As such, the Supervisor has been performing the job duties of the Superintendent and the Lead Maintenance Worker has been performing the job duties of the Supervisor, both without additional compensation.

Analysis/Discussion:

Updates to the Superintendent position include a categorization of types of duties performed, elaboration of the professional work duties and requirements, and inclusion of new standardized language. Updates to the Supervisor position include clarification of responsibilities regarding the role in the operation of the wastewater treatment plant and water system, elaboration of the supervisory duties, and inclusion of new standardized language.

Economic Impacts:

N/A
Budget Impacts:

To accommodate a change in personnel to fill the Superintendent position, a budget adjustment is necessary. Based on promotions of the current staff into these positions, there will be a total Fiscal Year 2024 – 2025 budget adjustment increase of $36,796.02 divided as follows: General Fund: $8,279.10; Sewer Fund: $12,878.61; Gas Tax Fund: $4,599.50; Water Fund: $11,038.80.
263
Legal Review:

City Attorney Pucci has reviewed this item and finds that the recommended action complies with the law.

Recommended Action:

Council consideration to approve the revised Public Works job descriptions for the Superintendent and Supervisor positions and approve a corresponding budget adjustment as proposed.

From: Nate Derr
Subject: First Reading and Introduction of a Proposed Ordinance Relating to Regulating Encampments and Sleeping on Public Property
Prepared On: October 18, 2024
Attachments: Ordinance - Relating to Encampments and Sleeping on Public Property

STAFF REPORT
Background/History:

On June 28th 2024 the US Supreme court ruled on Grants Pass v. Johnson concerning the enforcement of anti-camping laws and their implications for homelessness. Specifically, it involves a legal challenge to ordinances that criminalize the act of sleeping in public spaces.

The case centers around whether such laws violate the Eighth Amendment's prohibition on cruel and unusual punishment, especially in the context of a person who is homeless and has no viable alternative to sleeping in public.

In response to growing concerns about public health and safety, California Governor Gavin Newsom issued an executive order that impacts how cities handle anti-camping laws. The order allows and encourages cities to enforce such laws more strictly but emphasizes the need for balancing enforcement with providing sufficient shelter and services for homeless individuals.

The Grants Pass v. Johnson case and Governor Newsom's executive order are connected through their focus on balancing enforcement of anti-camping laws with the rights and needs of homeless individuals. The case addresses constitutional concerns about criminalizing homelessness, while the executive order provides a framework for cities to enforce these laws responsibly.

Analysis/Discussion:

Currently the City of Bishop does not have a camping ordinance. This leaves Officers little to 298
no direction when addressing camping or sleeping on public property within the City limits. The proposed Ordinance with attached response procedure and abatement form including a resource guide for individuals experiencing homelessness, will put the City of Bishop in line with State and Federal standards and into compliance with State and Federal law regarding camping on public property.

Additionally this will align with the City of Bishop's strategic plan Mission 1: Build and create community and support a vibrant, pedestrian-friendly city by investing in public spaces and supporting downtown events and activities.

Economic Impacts:

This item would provide for a more family friendly downtown, which can increase overall business revenue.

Budget Impacts:

There are no budget impacts.

Legal Review:

City Attorney Pucci has reviewed this item and finds it complies with the law.

Recommended Action:

Council consideration to approve the first reading and introduction of the proposed ordinance by title only.

An Ordinance of the City Council of the City of Bishop, State of California, Amending Title 8 of the Bishop Municipal Code by Adding Chapter 8.05 Relating to the Regulating of Encampments and Sleeping on Public Property and Determining Such Ordinance to be Exempt From Environmental Review Under the California Environmental Quality Act.

ENVIRONMENTAL QUALITY ACT.

WHEREAS, the City of Bishop is committed to protecting the life, health, and safety of its residents and all the people within the geographical boundaries of the City; and WHEREAS, on June 28, 2024, the U.S. Supreme Court issued its decision in Johnson v. City of Grants Pass, Oregon. Among other things, the Supreme Court held that the Eighth Amendment does not prohibit cities from enforcing laws regulating camping on public property (144 S.Ct. 2202); and
WHEREAS, the Council finds that certain public lands within the City’s geographical boundaries pose significant health and safety hazards to people who make shelters and stay overnight in these areas; and
WHEREAS, the Council finds that some of these public lands are environmentally sensitive and may be significantly damaged by unregulated human activity; and WHEREAS, all legal prerequisites to the adoption of this Ordinance have occurred.

From: Nate Derr
Subject: First Reading and Introduction of a Proposed Ordinance Relating to Prohibiting Public Urination and Defecation
Prepared On: October 18, 2024
Attachments: Ordinance - Relating to Prohibiting Public Urination and Defecation

STAFF REPORT
Background/History:

In California, public urination and defecation are generally not classified as distinct crimes but can be addressed under Penal Code 372, which deals with public nuisances. Here's how it works:

1. Public Nuisance Definition: PC 372 defines a public nuisance as an act that disrupts the public's right to enjoy their property or public spaces. While public urination and defecation can be seen as nuisances, they often need to meet certain criteria to be prosecuted under this code.

2. Multiple Incidents Requirement: To successfully enforce PC 372, law enforcement may need to demonstrate that the behavior has occurred repeatedly by the same individual, or that it is part of a broader pattern affecting the community. This can complicate enforcement, as officers may have to document numerous instances before they can take action.

3. Challenges in Enforcement: The requirement for repeated offenses makes it challenging for officers to address these issues promptly. If individuals are only committing the act once or sporadically, law enforcement is not always able to take immediate action. This has lead to frustrations in the city as we experience rising incidents of public urination and defecation. An alternative solution many Cities have adopted is a Local Ordinance to provide clearer paths for enforcement, allowing officers to address public urination and defecation more directly without having to rely solely on state penal codes.

Analysis/Discussion:

This ordinance will align with the City of Bishop's strategic plan Mission 1: Build and create community and support a vibrant, pedestrian-friendly city by investing in public spaces and 303
supporting downtown events and activities.

This ordinance will also align with Inyo County Code 9.36.

Economic Impacts:

There are no economic impacts.

Budget Impacts:

There are no budget impacts.

Legal Review:

City Attorney Pucci has reviewed this item and finds it complies with the law.

Recommended Action:

Council consideration to approve the first reading and introduction of the proposed ordinance by title only.

Date of Meeting: October 28, 2024
Department: Community Services
To: City Council
From: Dan McElroy
Subject: Award Construction Bid for the Community Garden Enhancement Project
Prepared On: October 21, 2024

STAFF REPORT
Background/History:

On October 23rd, 2023, the City of Bishop in partnership with the Friends of the Eastern Sierra Community Gardens applied for the California Urban Greening Grant through CNRA. The City of Bishop was awarded this grant in the amount of $138,920.80. The Community Garden Enhancement Project will provide for Irrigation amendments, ADA concrete accessibility, and a Pergola construction at the Bishop City Park Community Garden location. The Community Services Department released the Community Garden Enhancement Project for Bidders on August 16th, 2024, and was advertised for 30 days. On September 16th there were no current bidders. The Community Services Department then extended the deadline to October 18th, 2024, at 2pm.

Analysis/Discussion:

The City of Bishop and the Friends of the Eastern Sierra Community Gardens developed construction plans for the Community Garden Enhancement Project. The estimated cost of construction is for $75,00.00 to $85,000.00. On October 18th, 2024, at 2pm sealed bids were opened and recorded for the Community Garden Enhancement Project. The Community Services Department received 1 bid, from Clair Concrete Inc. The low bid was from Clair Concrete Inc. in the amount of $88,324,00.

Economic Impacts:

There are economic impacts for this project. The Community Garden Enhancement Project will create necessary upgrades to the existing Community Garden location at the Bishop City Park. These upgrades will provide for a more welcoming environment at this location. The Bishop City Park is centrally located in the downtown corridor. Due to this location and its access to local businesses, we believe there will be economic impacts by increased visitation to local businesses.

Budget Impacts:

The budget impacts are as follows: This item was a budgeted for in the Parks and Recreation 2024-2025 budget. The total budgeted amount is $138,920.80. The total cost of construction is 307
$75,000.00 to $85,000.00. The awarded Clair Concrete Inc. bid is for $88,324.00. This Project is grant funded through the CNRA Urban Greening Grant and will be reimbursable amount for the Community Garden Enhancement Project.

Legal Review:

City Attorney Pucci has reviewed this item and finds that the recommended action complies with the law.

Recommended Action:

Council consideration to:

Award the Community Garden Enhancement Project contract to Clair Concrete Inc. in the amount of $88,324.00
Authorize the execution of the construction contract with Clair Concrete Inc.

Authorize the expenditure in a not-to-exceed amount of $88,324.00 including 10% contingency.
