Prepared by: Casey Wichert, Assistant Director of Public Works, Operations James Wolfe, Water Manager
Submitted by: Miki Tsubota, Director of Public Works/City Engineer
PURPOSE AND RECOMMENDATION
Every three years, the City must prepare a Public Health Goal Report (Report) that provides consumers with information on levels of contaminants within the City’s water and provides consumers information about the public health risks posed by the contaminates. In summary, the Report states the City’s drinking water quality meets all drinking water standards to protect public health. Staff recommends the adoption of the 2022 Public Health Goal Report on drinking water to satisfy the requirements of California Health and Safety Code Section 116470(b).

Not Applicable.
PREVIOUS ACTION
On June 22, 2010, by City Council Resolution No. 2010-97, City Council adopted a resolution approving the 2010 Public Health Goal Report.
On July 23, 2013, by City Council Resolution No. 2013-97, City Council adopted a resolution approving the 2013 Public Health Goal Report.
On September 27, 2016, by City Council Resolution No. 2016-132, City Council adopted a resolution approving the 2016 Public Health Goal Report.
On August 13, 2019, by City Council Resolution No. 2019-97, City Council adopted a resolution approving the 2019 Public Health Goal Report.
BACKGROUND
Public water systems serving more than 10,000 service connections must prepare a written report every three years that gives information on the detection of any contaminants above the Public Health Goals (“PHGs”) published by the state Office of Environmental Health Hazard Assessment (“OEHHA”). The report must also list the detection of any contaminant above the Maximum Contaminant Level Goals (“MCLGs”) set by United States Environmental Protection Agency (“USEPA”) for all other contaminants that the OEHHA does not yet have published PHGs.
The City of Brentwood (“City”) has not exceeded any Maximum Contaminant Levels (“MCLs”).
The USEPA and the California State Water Resources Control Board (“SWRCB”) Division of Drinking Water (“DDW”) establish MCLs at very conservative levels to provide protection to C.1
Packet Pg. 161
consumers. In other words, MCLs are the regulatory definition of what is safe. Adopted MCLs are the criteria for being in compliance, not MCLGs or PHGs (MCLGs and PHGs are not enforceable and are for informational purposes).
The City has and continues to meet all water quality requirements, and the water is safe and complies with all state and federal regulations. The preparation of the Public Health Goal Report (“Report”) is unique to California, and is required in addition to the extensive public reporting of water quality the City completes monthly, quarterly and annually, as well as the federally mandated Consumer Confidence Report (Annual Water Quality Report).
In conformance with State law, the attached Report has been prepared. The Report provides consumers with information about the law and public health risks posed by the contaminants and discusses the best available treatment technology and associated costs to remove or reduce contaminants.
The Report summary states the drinking water provided by the City meets 100 percent of all enforceable SWRCB DDW and OEHHA primary drinking water standards. Overall, arsenic, gross alpha particles and gross beta particles were detected in the City water system at concentrations above PHGs or MCLGs. However, at no time did the City serve water containing contaminants above recognized and enforceable MCLs. The drinking water quality of the City meets all drinking water standards to protect public health.
The levels of constituents identified in the report are already significantly below the health-based MCLs established to provide safe drinking water. Further reductions in these levels would require additional costly treatment processes and the ability of these processes to provide significant additional reductions in constituent levels is uncertain. In addition, the health protection benefits of these possible reductions are not at all clear and may not be quantifiable.
For these reasons, no action is proposed at his time.
FISCAL IMPACT
There are no costs associated with the Report. The preparation of the Report ensures compliance with the State’s requirements.

TRIENNIAL PUBLIC HEALTH GOAL REPORT 2022
Background
The California Health and Safety Code Section 116470(b) specifies water utilities serving more than 10,000 connections prepare a brief written report every three years that documents detections of any constituents that exceed a Public Health Goal (“PHG”) in the preceding three years. PHGs are non-enforceable goals established by the California Office of Environmental Health Hazard Assessment (“OEHHA”). The law also requires where OEHHA has not adopted a PHG for a constituent, water suppliers are to use the Maximum Contaminant Level Goal (“MCLG”) adopted by the United States Environmental Protection Agency (“USEPA”). MCLGs are also non-enforceable goals. Only constituents having both a California primary drinking water standard and a PHG or MCLG as of December 31, 2021 are to be addressed in the report.
This 2022 Triennial PHG Report covers constituents detected in the City’s water supply during calendar years 2019 through 2021 at a level exceeding an applicable PHG or MCLG and provides the required information for each constituent. Included is the numerical public health risk associated with the Maximum Contaminant Level (“MCL”) and the PHG or MCLG, the category or type of risk to health which could be associated with each constituent, the best technology available which could be used to reduce the constituent level, and an estimate of the cost to install the treatment if it is appropriate and feasible. In addition to this required report, the City will continue reporting annually in great depth on the quality of the water it serves.
What are PHGs?
PHGs are set by the OEHHA which is part of the California Environmental Protection Agency (“CalEPA”) and are based solely on public health risk considerations. None of the practical risk-management factors considered by the USEPA or the California State Water Resources Control Board (“SWRCB”) Division of Drinking Water (“DDW”) in setting drinking water standards (MCLs) are considered when setting the PHGs.
These factors include analytical detection capability, treatment technology available, benefits and costs.
PHGs are not enforceable and are not required to be met by any public water system. MCLGs are the federal equivalent to PHGs.
How Does OEHHA Establish a Public Health Goal?
The process for establishing a PHG for a chemical contaminant in drinking water is very rigorous. OEHHA scientists first compile all relevant scientific information available, which includes studies of the chemical's effects on laboratory animals and studies of humans who have been exposed to the chemical. Scientists use data from these studies to perform a health risk assessment, in which they determine the levels of the contaminant in drinking water that could be associated with various adverse health effects. When calculating a PHG, OEHHA uses all the information it has compiled to identify the level of the chemical in drinking water that would not cause significant adverse health effects in people who drink that water every day for 70 years. OEHHA must also consider any evidence of immediate and severe health effects when setting the PHG.
For cancer‐causing chemicals, OEHHA typically establishes the PHG at the “one‐in‐one million” risk level.
At that level, not more than one person in a population of one million people drinking the water daily for 70 years would be expected to develop cancer as a result of exposure to that chemical.
Water Quality Data Considered
All of the water quality data collected from the City’s water system during calendar years 2019 through 2021 for purposes of determining compliance with drinking water standards was reviewed. The data was C.1.b
Packet Pg. 165 Attachment: Public Health Goal Report (2785 : 2022 Public Health Goal Report) City of Brentwood Public Works/Operations Division
2022 Triennial Public Health Goal Report Page 2
summarized in the 2019, 2020, and 2021 Annual Water Quality Reports (“AWQRs”) that are available on City’s website and emailed to all of our customers each year.
Guidelines Followed
The Association of California Water Agencies (“ACWA”) formed a workgroup which prepared guidelines for water utilities to use in preparing these reports. The ACWA guidelines were updated in 2022 and were utilized in the preparation of this report. No formal guidance was available from state regulatory agencies.
Best Available Treatment Technology and Cost Estimates
Both the USEPA and SWRCB DDW adopt what are known as Best Available Technologies which are the best known methods of reducing contaminant levels to the MCL. Costs can be estimated for such technologies; however, since many PHGs and all MCLGs are set much lower than the MCL, it is not always possible or feasible to determine what treatment is needed to further reduce a constituent downward to or near the PHG or MCLG, many of which are set at zero. Estimating the costs to reduce a constituent to zero is difficult because it is not possible to verify by analytical means that the level has been lowered to zero.
In some cases, installing treatment to further reduce very low levels of one constituent may have adverse effects on other aspects of water quality.
Constituents Detected that Exceed a PHG or MCLG
The following is a discussion of constituents detected in the City’s drinking water at levels above the PHG, or if no PHG, above the MCLG.
Arsenic
Arsenic is a naturally occurring element in the earth's crust and is very widely distributed in the environment.
All humans are exposed to small quantities of arsenic (inorganic and organic) largely from food and to a lesser degree from drinking water and air. Some edible seafood may contain higher concentrations of arsenic which are predominantly found in the less acutely toxic organic forms. City wells have an average level of 1.4 parts per billion (ppb) of arsenic, which is well below the current “not-to-exceed” or MCL limit of 10 ppb of arsenic. Arsenic has not been detected in the surface water. The OEHHA has established a PHG of 0.004 ppb. OEHHA has determined arsenic as a carcinogen. OEHHA has a numerical cancer risk of one additional cancer case per million people for the 0.004 micrograms per liter PHG, and 1 in four hundred for the MCL of 10 ug/L.
Reverse osmosis, and GFO/Adsorption are the water treatment technologies available for achieving compliance with the MCL for arsenic.
Gross Alpha Particle Activity
Radionuclides such as gross alpha in water supplies are from erosion of natural deposits. The term radionuclide refers to naturally occurring elemental radium, radon, uranium, and thorium. Each of those elements has an unstable atomic nucleus which spontaneously decays producing ionizing radiation. Gross alpha is defined as the sum total of these radionuclides. Exposure to ionizing radiation in concentrations exceeding the MCL may have carcinogenic (cancer causing), mutagenic (causing mutation of cells) or teratogenicity (causing abnormalities in offspring) effects. The USEPA's MCLG for gross alpha particle is zero picocuries per liter (pCi/L), and the California MCL is 15 pCi/L. Gross Alpha was detected in City wells and surface water with ranges between not detected to 13 with a weighted average below the detectable level of 4 pCi/L. Health risk category based on experimental animal testing data evaluated in the USEPA C.1.b
Packet Pg. 166 Attachment: Public Health Goal Report (2785 : 2022 Public Health Goal Report) City of Brentwood Public Works/Operations Division
2022 Triennial Public Health Goal Report Page 3
MCLG document and California MCL has determined gross alpha particle as a carcinogen. The USEPA’s MCLG for gross alpha is zero and a cancer risk of 1 additional case per million people for the DDW MCL of 15 pCi/L. Note: Cancer Risk = Theoretical 70-year lifetime excess cancer risk at a statistical confidence limit. Actual cancer risk may be lower or zero.
Reverse osmosis is the water treatment technology available for achieving compliance with the MCL for gross alpha particle activity.
Gross Beta Particle Activity
Certain minerals are radioactive and may emit a form of radiation known as photons and beta radiation.
Gross Beta was detected in City wells and surface water with ranges between not detected to 9.2 with a weighted average below the detectable level of 3 pCi/L. There is no PHG for gross beta particle activity.
The MCLG is zero picocuries per liter (pCi/L), and the MCL is 50 pCi/L. The levels detected in the City system were below the MCL at all times, but were over the level identified by the USEPA as the MCLG.
DDW and USEPA, which set drinking water standards, have determined gross beta particle activity is a health concern at certain levels of exposure. This radiological constituent is a naturally occurring contaminant in some ground water and surface water supplies. The category of health risk associated with gross beta particle activity, and the reason a drinking water standard was adopted for it, is some people who drink water containing beta and photon emitters in excess of the MCL over many years may have an increased risk of getting cancer. The numerical health risk for the MCLG of zero pCi/L is zero. DDW and USEPA set the drinking water standard for gross beta particle activity at 50 pCi/L to reduce the risk of cancer or other adverse health effects.
The Best Available Treatment Technologies identified to treat gross beta particle activity are ion exchange and reverse osmosis. The most effective method to consistently remove beta and photon emitters to the MCLG is to install reverse osmosis treatment at select ground water and surface water connection sites where water exceeds the MCLG. The cost to install and operate reverse osmosis removal systems to remove beta and photon emitters to the MCLG in the City water system would be over $20 million which includes construction and annual operational costs. This could be accomplished concurrently with Gross Alpha.
Recommendations for Further Action
The City’s drinking water quality meets all DDW and USEPA drinking water standards set to protect public health. The levels of constituents identified in this report are already significantly below the health-based MCLs established to provide safe drinking water. Further reductions in these levels would require additional costly treatment processes and the ability of these processes to provide significant additional reductions in constituent levels is uncertain. In addition, the health protection benefits of these possible reductions are not at all clear and may not be quantifiable. For these reasons, no action is proposed at his time.

C.2.a
Packet Pg. 172 Attachment: Resolution - 2022 (2779 : PA-1 Public Hearing Innovation Center Master Plan) 3 A. Make the following findings:
1. The foregoing recitals are true and correct and are hereby incorporated by this reference.
2. With respect to the California Environmental Quality Act (‘CEQA,’ codified at California Public Resources Code §§ 21000, et seq., and as further governed by the State CEQA Guidelines, found at 14 CCR §§ 15000, et seq.), the City Council has reviewed the Addendum and finds that none of the circumstances that would require the preparation of a subsequent EIR exist:
a. There are no substantial changes proposed by the Project which will require major revisions of the previous EIR due to the involvement of new significant environmental effects or a substantial increase in the severity of previously identified significant effects;
b. There are no substantial changes that have occurred with respect to the circumstances under which the Project is undertaken, which will require major revisions of the previous EIR due to the involvement of new significant environmental effects or a substantial increase in the severity of previously identified significant effects; and
c. There is no new information of substantial importance, which was not known and could not have been known with the exercise of reasonable diligence at the time the previous EIR was certified as complete, that shows any of the following:
1. The Project will have one or more significant effects not discussed in the previous EIR or negative declaration;
2. Significant effects previously examined will be substantially more severe than shown in the previous EIR;
3. Mitigation measures or alternatives previously found not to be feasible would in fact be feasible, and would substantially reduce one or more significant effects of the project, but the City declined to adopt the mitigation measure or alternative; or
4. Mitigation measures or alternatives which are considerably different from those analyzed in the previous EIR would substantially reduce one or more significant effects on the environment, but the City declined to adopt the mitigation measure or alternative.
d. The City Council thus finds that it is appropriate to prepare and adopt an Addendum to the PA-1 EIR, per CEQA Guidelines § 15164(a), and further finds that the Addendum was completed in compliance with CEQA and the CEQA Guidelines, and that (based on evidence submitted and as demonstrated by the analysis and findings included in the Addendum), none of the conditions set forth in CEQA Guidelines § 15162 exist such as to require the preparation of a subsequent EIR. The Addendum reflects the City Council’s independent judgment and analysis.
e. Pursuant to Public Resources Code § 21081.6(a)(2) and CEQA Guidelines Section 15074(c), the location and custodian of the documents and other materials which constitute the record on which this Resolution is based is the C.2.a

WHEREAS, on July 22, 2014, the City Council of the City of Brentwood adopted an update to the City’s General Plan (the “General Plan”) that included, among other things, policy language prioritizing the development of a roughly 430-acre portion of the City generally bounded by Heidorn Ranch Road, Lone Tree Way, Shady Willow Lane, and Sand Creek and identified as “Priority Area 1” (sometimes referred to herein as the “Specific Plan Area”); and WHEREAS, per the direction of the General Plan, the Specific Plan Area was envisioned to include a mixture of employment-generating uses, and make possible the potential future construction of a transit facility for a future eBART station and/or park-and-ride facility, and associated transit-oriented development supporting ridership, including a variety of residential forms and densities; and
WHEREAS, in order to develop the Priority Area 1 Specific Plan, the City undertook an extensive community planning process, hiring the De Novo Planning Group as its multidisciplinary consultant (“Consultant”) to work with City staff; and
WHEREAS, the City Council appointed twelve individuals to serve on a Specific Plan Working Group, which was charged with providing input to the development of the Specific Plan, and serving as ambassadors for the Specific Plan to the greater community. The Working Group met approximately ten times during the development of the Specific Plan; and WHEREAS, the Consultant and Staff facilitated various public events and hosted online surveys as part of the Specific Plan outreach process to gather input from the greater community.
These efforts included:
An April 17, 2017 workshop to seek input on key priorities for the Specific Plan.
Approximately 30 participants attended the workshop;
An initial online survey (available from April 13, 2017 - June 9, 2017) to glean participant preferences as to future Specific Plan Area development, possible eBART service, and desired job opportunities. Over 260 survey responses were received; A second online survey (available from October 4, 2017 - October 25, 2017) to gauge community support for proposed Specific Plan land use alternatives. Approximately 60 individuals responded to this second survey; and
A December 11, 2017 open house to present the preferred land use map to the community. Approximately 10 members of the public attended the open house.
WHEREAS, the City Council held duly-noticed public meetings concerning the development of the Specific Plan on three separate occasions:

The establishment of the employment center would, in turn, assist the City in achieving its goal of a healthy jobs-to-housing balance, reducing commute times for residents, and establishing new opportunities for economic growth and employment within the city. In addition, the City saw PA-1’s development as a vibrant, compact, mixed-use district, focused around a transit station that will provide linkages to other eastern Contra Costa County communities and the wider Bay Area region beyond. The Specific Plan provided the vision and strategy to facilitate PA-1’s emergence as the city’s transit-oriented employment center; and

C.2.b
Packet Pg. 181 Attachment: Ordinance (2779 : PA-1 Public Hearing Innovation Center Master Plan) CHAPTER 4: LAND USE PLAN
This chapter describes the land use plan, which is the guide for developing and using land within the PA-1 Specific Plan area (Specific Plan area or planning area). The land use plan provides the framework necessary to achieve the mixture of uses that will fulfill the City of Brentwood’s vision and priorities for the Specific Plan area. The framework identifies the project area’s land use designations and allowed uses. The land use plan comprises the text in this chapter and the land use diagram, which is a map that illustrates the locations of the land use designations in the planning area. This chapter also includes goals and policies necessary to achieve and implement the land use vision for the Specific Plan area.
This chapter is organized into the following sections:
4.1. Land Use Plan
4.2. Land Use Designations
4.3. Allowed Uses
4.4. Land Use Plan Goals and Policies

4.1: LAND USE PLAN
The land use plan implements the Specific Plan’s vision and goals through the application of specified land use designations to all properties in the Specific Plan area. The locations of these designations are illustrated in Figure 4.1, Land Use Plan. The land use designations form the basis of the Specific Plan’s land use framework. The designations are described in Section 4.2, Land Use Designations. The corresponding allowed use provisions for each designation are listed in Section 4.3, Allowed Uses.
Development standards for each land use designation are included in Chapter 6, Private Realm Development.
4.2: LAND USE DESIGNATIONS
Table 4.1, Land Use Designations, establishes the seven land use designations and one overlay designation that apply within the Specific Plan area. These designations implement both the PA-1 Specific Plan and the City’s General Plan vision, policies, and land use classifications for the planning area. The designations replace the application of the City’s conventional zoning districts and planned developments in the planning area. See Figure 4.1, Land Use Plan, for specific parcel designations within the project area.
Densities specified in this Specific Plan are expressed in units per gross acre. Gross acreage shall include land dedicated for any public use (including but not limited to streets, schools, parks, fire stations and detention basins). Land set aside for public facilities and for which reimbursement will be received is not to be included in density calculations (i.e. schools and detention basins). The extent to which facilities are provided will help determine the actual number of units per acre that will be allowed.

4.3: ALLOWED USES
Table 4.2, Allowed Uses, establishes land use and corresponding entitlement requirements for the Specific Plan’s seven land use designations and one overlay designation. Allowed use provisions herein are generally consistent with and implement corresponding land use designations in the City’s General Plan. Within the Specific Plan area, all land area and structures/facilities therein may only be developed, divided, and/or used for those activities listed in Table 4.2. The table also includes references to Brentwood Municipal Code (BMC) sections and other ordinances that the City uses to regulate development that may impact certain sensitive uses.
Land uses in the table are grouped into general categories on the basis of common function, product, or compatibility characteristics. These allowed use categories are called “use classifications.” Use classifications describe one or more uses having similar characteristics but do not list every use or activity that may appropriately be within the classification. For more information on the purpose, applicability, and the City’s definition of use descriptions, refer to Appendix A: Glossary. The following rules apply to use classifications:
⊲ Similar Uses. When a use is not specifically listed in Table 4.2, it shall be understood that the use may be permitted or
conditionally permitted if the City of Brentwood Community Development Director determines that the use is substantially similar to a use listed in Table 4.2. Residential uses are not similar to and will not be permitted in any designation where such uses are not explicitly permitted in Table 4.2 below. It is further recognized that every conceivable use cannot be identified in Table 4.2. Anticipating that new uses will evolve over time, the Community Development Director may make a formal similar use determination (in writing) based on the proposed use’s impacts and its compatibility with uses allowed in the given district. ⊲ Illegal Uses. No use that is illegal under local, state, or federal law shall be allowed in any land use designation within the planning area.
Use regulations in Table 4.2 are shown using the following symbols:
⊲ P – land use permitted by right
⊲ C – land use allowed with the approval of a conditional use permit.
For the City’s conditional use permit requirements and process, refer to BMC Chapter 17.830.
⊲ - – land use not allowed

4.4: LEGAL NONCONFORMING STATUS
The following requirements apply to legal nonconforming land uses, buildings, and structures.
Land Uses
1. A legal nonconforming land use is one that was permitted within the zone in which it was located at the time it was established, but became disallowed upon the adoption of the PA-1 Specific Plan.
Notwithstanding any other language in the Municipal Code to the contrary, such use may continue as long as it does so in accordance with these provisions and without any interruption lasting more than one year. It shall be the responsibility of the respective property owner to provide documentation to the satisfaction of the Community Development Director that confirms both the legal nonconforming status of a land use and the duration of any interruption in that land use. Legal nonconforming uses include development projects that were approved prior to adoption of the PA-1 Specific Plan, have not yet been constructed, have been subject to substantial investment, and retain their approval status.
2. Except as provided herein, a legal nonconforming land use shall not be changed to or replaced by any other use except a conforming one.
A legal nonconforming land use may, however, be changed to or replaced by another similar use when all of the following criteria are met:
⊲ The change or replacement does not increase the extent or intensity of the nonconformity within the site area occupied by the nonconforming use on the site.
⊲ The building or portion of a building, presently occupied by the legal nonconforming land use, is not reasonably capable of conversion to accommodate use and occupancy by a conforming use, without substantial reconstruction or remodeling as determined by the Chief Building Official.
⊲ All proper building permits are obtained.
A subsequent purchaser cannot replace a nonconforming use established or operated by a prior owner with a new nonconforming use similar in nature.
3. Any legal nonconforming use of a site that is vacant for a period of one year or longer, or is discontinued or otherwise ceases operation and use of the site for a period of one year or longer, shall not be resumed, reestablished, continued or substituted, and all subsequent use of such site shall conform to the requirements of the PA-1 Specific Plan.
C.2.c
Packet Pg. 193 Attachment: PA-1 Chapter 4 Land Use and Appendix A Definitions - August 9 2022 Revisions (2779 : PA-1 Public Hearing Innovation Center PA-1 SPECIFIC PLAN | LAND USE PLAN 4-11
A one-time six-month extension to the one-year use period may be granted by the Community Development Director if requested in writing. It shall be the responsibility of the respective property owner to provide documentation to the satisfaction of the Community Development Director that confirms the period of vacancy or discontinuance of a legal nonconforming land use.
4. A legal nonconforming land use that occupies a portion of a building may be expanded to include additional floor area within the same building provided that all proper building permits are obtained. Prior to any expansion within the same building, however, the property owner shall demonstrate to the satisfaction of the Chief Building Official that without substantial remodeling or reconstruction, the portion of the building into which expansion is proposed may not reasonably be used or occupied by a conforming use. The Chief Building Official shall consider whether any required remodeling or reconstruction would involve structural alterations prior to allowing expansion of a legal nonconforming land use. A legal nonconforming use can also be expanded in accordance with Buildings and Structures section below.
5. A legal nonconforming land use that is changed to or replaced by a conforming use shall not be reestablished.
Buildings and Structures
1. Normal and routine maintenance of any existing building or structure for the purpose of preserving its existing condition, retarding or eliminating wear and tear or physical depreciation, or complying with health and safety requirements, shall be permitted and encouraged.
2. Exterior improvements and renovations and/or structural additions to legal nonconforming buildings or structures that increase the size or scale of nonconforming conditions are not permitted, except as specified below:
⊲ One-time minor additions involving a maximum of 25% of the gross floor area or 500 total square feet, whichever is less. ⊲ Significant exterior alterations or changes in the exterior façade or architectural design consistent with the applicable Cityadopted design guidelines. ⊲ Owner-occupied residential buildings used for residential purposes shall be permitted to add accessory structures and outdoor amenities consistent with the applicable development standards for the property.

This chapter describes the land use plan, which is the guide for developing and using land within the PA-1 Specific Plan area (Specific Plan area or planning area). The land use plan provides the framework necessary to achieve the mixture of uses that will fulfill the City of Brentwood’s vision and priorities for the Specific Plan area. The framework identifies the project area’s land use designations and allowed uses. The land use plan comprises the text in this chapter and the land use diagram, which is a map that illustrates the locations of the land use designations in the planning area. This chapter also includes goals and policies necessary to achieve and implement the land use vision for the Specific Plan area.
This chapter is organized into the following sections:
4.1. Land Use Plan
4.2. Land Use ClassificationsDesignations
4.3. Allowed Uses
4.4. Land Use Plan Goals and Policies

4.1: LAND USE PLAN
The land use plan implements the Specific Plan’s vision and goals through the application of the project’s six specified land use designations to all properties in the Specific Plan area. The locations of these designations are illustrated in Figure 4.1, Land Use Plan. The land use designations form the basis of the Specific Plan’s land use framework. The designations are described in Section 4.2, Land Use ClassificationsDesignations. The corresponding allowed use provisions for each designation are listed in Section 4.3, Allowed Uses. Development standards for each land use designation are included in Chapter 6, Private Realm Development.
4.2: LAND USE CLASSIFICATIONSDESIGNATIONS
Table 4.1, Land Use Designations, establishes the six seven land use designations and one overlay designation that apply within the Specific Plan area. These designations implement both the PA-1 Specific Plan and the City’s General Plan vision, policies, and land use classifications for the planning area. The designations replace the application of the City’s conventional zoning districts and planned developments in the planning area. See Figure 4.1, Land Use Plan, for specific parcel designations within the project area.
Densities specified in this Specific Plan are expressed in units per gross acre. Gross acreage shall include land dedicated for any public use (including but not limited to streets, schools, parks, fire stations and detention basins). Land set aside for public facilities and for which reimbursement will be received is not to be included in density calculations (i.e. schools and detention basins). The extent to which facilities are provided will help determine the actual number of units per acre that will be allowed.

4.3: ALLOWED USES
Table 4.2, Allowed Uses, establishes land use and corresponding entitlement requirements for the Specific Plan’s six seven land use designations and one overlay designation. Allowed use provisions herein are generally consistent with and implement corresponding land use designations in the City’s General Plan. Within the Specific Plan area, all land area and structures/facilities therein may only be developed, divided, and/or used for those activities listed in Table 4.2. The table also includes references to Brentwood Municipal Code (BMC) sections and other ordinances that the City uses to regulate development that may impact certain sensitive uses.
Land uses in the table are grouped into general categories on the basis of common function, product, or compatibility characteristics. These allowed use categories are called “use classifications.” Use classifications describe one or more uses having similar characteristics but do not list every use or activity that may appropriately be within the classification. For more information on the purpose, applicability, and the City’s definition of use descriptions, refer to Appendix A: Glossary. The following rules apply to use classifications:
⊲ Similar Uses. When a use is not specifically listed in Table 4.2, it shall be understood that the use may be permitted or
conditionally permitted if the City of Brentwood Community Development Director determines that the use is substantially similar to a use listed in Table 4.2. Residential uses are not similar to and will not be permitted in any designation where such uses are not explicitly permitted in Table 4.2 below. It is further recognized that every conceivable use cannot be identified in Table 4.2. Anticipating that new uses will evolve over time, the Community Development Director may make a formal similar use determination (in writing) based on the proposed use’s impacts and its compatibility with uses allowed in the given district. ⊲ Illegal Uses. No use that is illegal under local, state, or federal law shall be allowed in any land use designation within the planning area.
Use regulations in Table 4.2 are shown using the following symbols:
⊲ P – land use permitted by right
⊲ C – land use allowed with the approval of a conditional use permit.
For the City’s conditional use permit requirements and process, refer to BMC Chapter 17.830.

1. A legal nonconforming land use is one that was permitted within the zone in which it was located at the time it was established, but became disallowed upon the adoption of the PA-1 Specific Plan.
Notwithstanding any other language in the Municipal Code to the contrary, sSuch use may continue as long as it does so in accordance with these provisions and without any interruption lasting more than one year. It shall be the responsibility of the respective property owner to provide documentation to the satisfaction of the Community Development Director that confirms both the legal nonconforming status of a land use and the duration of any interruption in that land use. Legal nonconforming uses include development projects that were approved prior to adoption of the PA-1 Specific Plan, have not yet been constructed, have been subject to substantial investment, and retain their approval status.
2. Except as provided herein, a legal nonconforming land use shall not be changed to or replaced by any other use except a conforming one.
A legal nonconforming land use may, however, be changed to or replaced by another similar use when all of the following criteria are met:
⊲ The change or replacement does not increase the extent or intensity of the nonconformity within the site area occupied by the nonconforming use on the site.
⊲ The building or portion of a building, presently occupied by the legal nonconforming land use, is not reasonably capable of conversion to accommodate use and occupancy by a conforming use, without substantial reconstruction or remodeling as determined by the Chief Building Official.
⊲ All proper building permits are obtained.
A subsequent purchaser cannot replace a nonconforming use established or operated by a prior owner with a new nonconforming use similar in nature.
3. Any legal nonconforming use of a site that is vacant for a period of one year or longer, or is discontinued or otherwise ceases operation and use of the site for a period of one year or longer, shall not be resumed, reestablished, continued or substituted, and all subsequent use of such site shall conform to the requirements of the PA-1 Specific Plan.

GENERAL DEFINITIONS
Bike Box refers to a designated area at the head of a traffic lane at a signalized intersection that provides bicyclists with a safe and visible way to get ahead of queuing traffic during the red signal phase.
Bike Share Program refers to a service that provides users with the ability to pick up a bicycle at any selfserve bike-station, typically for a rental fee, and return it to any other bike station located within the system's service area. Bike share programs differ from traditional bicycle rental services in that they are typically used for short, spontaneous trips that are often combined with other transportation modes (e.g. transit).
Bollard refers to a sturdy, short, vertical post that is installed, typically in combination with other bollards, to define pedestrian spaces and control road traffic.
Bulbout refers to a raised curb extension that narrow the travel lane at intersections or midblock locations and reduces the curb radii at intersections. The device increases pedestrian safety and comfort by reducing the street crossing distance and vehicle speeds, and by making pedestrians approaching street crossing more visible to drivers.
Building Frontage refers to the requirement that some portion of a project’s primary building’s (or buildings’) front and street side yard facades be placed along the corresponding property lines to ensure that the building(s) frame the adjoining street and/or pedestrian spaces, creating a pedestrian-scaled urban form.
Building Separation refers to the separation of multiple buildings on a single parcel to achieve pedestrianscaled streets (paseos) and public spaces on larger parcels that feature consolidated development.
Building Height is measured as the vertical distance from the natural grade of the site to an imaginary plane located at the allowed number of feet above and parallel to the grade. Building heights convey the intensity and scale of structures and impact the feeling of enclosure within the streetscape.
Chicanes refers to a series of curb extensions, typically landscaped, that alternate from one side of the street to the other, forming S-shaped curves that require vehicles to slow down.
Circulation System, Conceptual refers to the roadways that will be constructed by private development to provide motorists, bicyclists, and pedestrians with access from the primary circulation system’s roadways and the existing roadways that boarder the Specific Plan area to individual parcels and sites. It is anticipated that the system will be constructed incrementally overtime as development occurs.
Circulation System, Primary refers to the arterial- and collector-level roadways that will be constructed by the City to provide motorists, bicyclists, and pedestrians with access into greenfield portions of the Specific Plan area.
Dark Sky is the practice of limiting night-time lighting, or light pollution, to make stars more visible at night, reduce the effects of unnatural lighting on the environment, and cut down on energy usage.
Density refers to the intensity of residential development. It is obtained by dividing the number of dwelling units on a parcel or within a project by the gross acreage.
Encroachment is where a portion of a building extends beyond the required setbacks. Encroachments can occur within and in some cases in the public right-of-way beyond a parcel’s property lines.

Energy Dissipater refers to a device that is designed to protect downstream areas from erosion by reducing the velocity of flow to acceptable limits.
Fenestration refers to the arrangement of openings, comprising of doors and windows, on the walls of a building.
Floor Area Ratio (FAR)refers to the intensity of non-residential development. FAR expresses the relationship between the amount of useable floor area permitted in a building (or buildings) and the area of the lot on which the building stands. It is obtained by dividing the gross floor area of a building by the total area of the lot. FAR is usually expressed as a decimal fraction (for example, 0.5 or 2.0).
Ground Floor Façade Transparency refers to the arrangement of fenestration on ground floor building elevations facing streets and public spaces, expressed as a percentage of the elevation’s area, to achieve a “storefront” design that provides visual access through the building and activates the surrounding streetscape.
Ground Floor Tenant Depth refers to the tenant space depth required to achieve desirable retail, restaurant, and commercial spaces that support vertical mixed-use development. The standard is measured as the horizontal distance from the front of the space, usually coinciding with an elevation that faces a street or public space, to the rear of the space.
Infrastructure System, Conceptual refers to the utility infrastructure, including water and wastewater pipes, stormwater facilities, and gas lines, that will be installed within the conceptual circulation system’s roadway rights-of-way.
Infrastructure System, Primary refers to the utility infrastructure, including water and wastewater pipes, stormwater facilities, and gas lines, that will be installed within the primary circulation system’s roadway rights-of-way.
Intelligent Transportation System (ITS) refers to an advanced application which, without embodying intelligence as such, aims to provide innovative services relating to different modes of transport and traffic management and enable various users to be better informed and make safer, more coordinated, and 'smarter' use of transport networks.
Low Impact Development refers to site planning and design that manages stormwater runoff as part of green infrastructure.
Modified Grid System: A layout of streets that are curved slightly to produce the illusion of varied setbacks while maintaining the integrated grid pattern. This form of street layout also narrows the line-of-sight for drivers and encourages them to slow down.
Parklet refers to a sidewalk extension that provides more space and amenities for people using the street.
Usually parklets are installed on parking lanes and use several parking spaces. Parklets typically extend out from the sidewalk at the level of the sidewalk to the width of the adjacent parking space.
Passive Ventilation is a natural ventilation system that makes use of natural forces, such as wind and thermal buoyancy, to circulate air to and from indoor spaces
Pedestrian Scale refers to the use of human proportioned architectural features and site design elements clearly oriented to pedestrian activity. Such elements are typically smaller in scale and more proportional C.2.c
Packet Pg. 228 Attachment: PA-1 Chapter 4 Land Use and Appendix A Definitions - August 9 2022 Revisions (2779 : PA-1 Public Hearing Innovation Center PA-1 SPECIFIC PLAN | APPENDIX A - GLOSSARY A-17
to the human body, rather than monumental or large scale, and include surface texture and patterns, lighting, colors, materials, and architectural details.
Projections refer to portion of a building that may extend above the maximum building height.
Setback refer to the mandatory distance from the property line that the wall of a building must be constructed. Setbacks directly impact the character and activity along the adjacent sidewalk. A consistent front setback is desirable in pedestrian-oriented environments. Rear and side setbacks vary according to land use district.
Solar Orientation refers to siting and orientation of a building and the positioning of its windows, rooflines, and other architectural elements to take advantage of passive and active solar strategies. Passive solar strategies use energy from the sun to heat and illuminate buildings. Building orientation and building materials also facilitate temperature moderation and natural daylighting. Active solar systems use solar collectors and additional electricity to power pumps or fans to distribute the sun's energy.
Stepback refers to the receding of a building’s upper story facades from its lower story facades. The concept reduces the perceived height of multiple story buildings, creating a more intimate, pedestrian-scaled development pattern, provides opportunities for balconies, and limits the presence of wind corridors.

Bollard refers to a sturdy, short, vertical post that is installed, typically in combination with other bollards, to define pedestrian spaces and control road traffic.
Bulbout refers to a raised curb extension that narrow the travel lane at intersections or midblock locations and reduces the curb radii at intersections. The device increases pedestrian safety and comfort by reducing the street crossing distance and vehicle speeds, and by making pedestrians approaching street crossing more visible to drivers.
Building Frontage refers to the requirement that some portion of a project’s primary building’s (or buildings’) front and street side yard facades be placed along the corresponding property lines to ensure that the building(s) frame the adjoining street and/or pedestrian spaces, creating a pedestrian-scaled urban form.
Building Separation refers to the separation of multiple buildings on a single parcel to achieve pedestrianscaled streets (paseos) and public spaces on larger parcels that feature consolidated development.
Building Height is measured as the vertical distance from the natural grade of the site to an imaginary plane located at the allowed number of feet above and parallel to the grade. Building heights convey the intensity and scale of structures and impact the feeling of enclosure within the streetscape.
Chicanes refers to a series of curb extensions, typically landscaped, that alternate from one side of the street to the other, forming S-shaped curves that require vehicles to slow down.

Stepback refers to the receding of a building’s upper story facades from its lower story facades. The concept reduces the perceived height of multiple story buildings, creating a more intimate, pedestrian-scaled development pattern, provides opportunities for balconies, and limits the presence of wind corridors.

PURPOSE AND RECOMMENDATION
The Police Department is requesting approval per City of Brentwood Ordinance 1037, Brentwood Police Department Policy 708 – Military Equipment, to purchase an Armored Rescue Vehicle (ARV), the MedEvac G2, from Lenco Industries, Inc. to preserve life and enhance the safety of citizens and Officers.

CITY COUNCIL STRATEGIC INITIATIVE
N/A
PREVIOUS ACTION
On April 26, 2022, the City Council introduced and waived first reading of an Ordinance adopting a Military Use Policy per AB 481 (Ordinance 1037).
On May 10, 2022, the City Council approved the second reading of Ordinance 1037, approving Brentwood Police Department Policy 708, Military Equipment Funding Acquisition, and Use, as required by AB 481 (2021).
BACKGROUND
Active shooter events are increasing nationwide, and the City of Brentwood is not immune to the potential of this type of incident occurring within our jurisdiction. The City of Brentwood and the Brentwood Police Department take the potential of such an event extremely seriously. The Brentwood Police Department conducts active shooter training annually. In addition, the Department’s SWAT Team trains monthly on the response to critical incidents. The Brentwood Police Department has trained all City staff in the active shooter response and preparedness with the use of ALICE Training (Alert, Lockdown, Inform, Counter, Evacuate). The Brentwood D.1
Packet Pg. 247
Police Department has also partnered with Brentwood Union School District and the Liberty Union School District to train their staff in the ALICE Training.
Although Brentwood Police Department trains for active shooters and critical incidents, the Department feels that the addition of an Armored Rescue Vehicle (ARV) would better prepare officers to respond to these types of incidents. The Lenco Industries, Inc., MedEvac G2 is the ARV that will provide the protection to our citizens and officers. Lenco Industries, Inc. (d/b/a Lenco Armored Vehicles) is the only designer and US manufacturer and distributor of the Lenco MedCat/MedEvac G2, making it a sole source provider. A search was conducted, and no other companies were found that provided the capabilities that the Lenco MedEvac G2 offers.
On the tactical side, this vehicle is ballistic rated at the highest level (NIJ IV), which is capable of withstanding multiple .50 caliber rounds to the body and glass. Additionally, Lenco is the only manufacturer that offers level IIIA Kevlar-based ballistic skip round shields that are capable of being hung from the vehicle running boards to the ground, end to end. The skip round shields provide ballistic protection to police officers and injured citizens from gunfire and skip rounds directed at and under the vehicle. Also, the MedEvac is the only armored vehicle that offers a two-piece hydraulic adjustable ram with a gas injector system that incorporates a triple valve over pressure relief system in order to increase operator safety. This hydraulic ram is capable of breaching barricaded structures and deploying less lethal chemical agents into a structure while being safely controlled by a police officer from inside the protection of the vehicle.
On the medical side, the vehicle contains two full-size medical stretchers mounted to the inside walls that can be quickly disconnected and deployed in the field to rescue and evacuate injured individuals. There are built-in medical supply cabinets with a workstation and onboard oxygen supply tanks. No other company offers this combination of tactical prowess with medical lifesaving capabilities.
This ARV is a four-wheeled vehicle used to enhance and sustain the safety of individuals and emergency responders when answering the call to active shooter incidents or hazardous situations. When an active shooting event occurs, the area where the incident is occurring is divided into three categories:
1. Hot Zone: active shooter not contained and in the area, a direct threat for injury exists, imminent threat/danger, and law enforcement only.
2. Warm Zone: active shooter not believed to be in the area, indirect threats remain, lifesaving interventions only, rapid initial triage, and rapid evacuation of survivors.
3. Cold Zone: minimal to no threats, ambulance staging, fire staging, incoming law enforcement units staging, and command post.
Over the last two years, the Brentwood Police Department has needed an ARV on at least four different occasions. In all but one of these situations, the Department had to rely on mutual aid to ensure the safety of our citizens and officers. In the fourth incident, mutual aid was not able to respond. These incidents included high-risk arrest warrants of potentially armed individuals, a possible armed subject wanted for felony crimes threatening to kill himself, and two citizens experiencing a mental health crisis and armed with weapons.
Having an ARV ready to deploy from Brentwood’s police facility will ensure an increase in officers’ capabilities during a critical incident. An ARV owned by the City will decrease Brentwood’s reliance on mutual aid in these types of situations and minimize response times.
Time is extremely important when responding to critical incidents, and having the ability to get D.1
Packet Pg. 248
officers and medically trained personnel to wounded citizens and officers as quickly as possible will save lives. This ARV allows trained personnel to enter unsecured, unstable areas (warm/hot zones), to deliver immediate assistance to individuals in need, and/or protect life and property.
The Lenco Industries, Inc., MedEvac G2 is designed to provide officers with critical equipment needed to enhance our ability to better serve and protect the community.
The ARV can be deployed for a variety of critical incidents such as violent felonies; incidents where the suspect has used, intends to use or is likely to use extreme violence against citizens or Brentwood Police Officers; and de-escalation of armed suspects having mental health episodes. Additionally, the ARV will be utilized to perform rescue operations for injured citizens and officers. The ARV is equipped with life-saving equipment and can safely deliver specially trained personnel and equipment to the scene. The equipment and specially trained personnel will ensure that the victims receive life-saving efforts faster, providing a higher probability of survival. The ARV can also be used for evacuating those who are physically unable to safely escape an active situation.
Aside from critical incidents involving life-saving measures, the ARV will be used for natural disasters, emergency rescue operations, community events, and public relations such as parades, educational events, and law enforcement demonstrations.
The ARV is designed for tactical emergency operations. Adequate staff will be trained in the operations of the ARV so it can be deployed quickly to the scene of a hazardous situation or emergency rescue. The MedEvac G2 is equipped with two tactical stretchers (litters), onboard oxygen tanks, light work stations, and compartments for medical supplies. The MedEvac G2 was purpose-built for rescuing, treating, and evacuating injured people. The MedEvac G2 is capable of evacuating four individuals, whether injured or not. The injured will receive lifesaving measures while they are being transported from the hot or warm zone to waiting Emergency Medical Staff (EMS), which will increase their survival rate. Without an ARV, injured individuals could be stranded at their location until the suspect is neutralized and the scene is rendered safe, thus reducing their chances for survival.
The Lenco Industries, Inc., MedEvac G2 is built using the Ford F550 chassis and only requires a class C driver's license to operate. Any personnel trained in the operations of the ARV can drive this vehicle without a need for additional licenses or endorsements by the DMV. In the event the ARV needs service or repairs, a local vendor will be able to provide those services.
FISCAL IMPACT
The total one-time cost for the purchase of the ARV is $367,907.05, including sales tax and shipping. The cost is proposed to be funded from two sources: $193,908 from the Police Grant Fund and $174,000 from the Asset Seizure Fund.
The Police Grants Fund has the requisite funds available from accumulated COPS/Supplemental Law Enforcement Services Funds (SLESF) allocations. These allocations are restricted for supplementing front-line law enforcement services and equipment. After this expenditure, there will be approximately $235,500 remaining in accumulated funds, along with projected FY 2022/23 revenue of $150,000. A budget amendment of $193,908 to the Police Grants Fund is proposed to allow for this expenditure.
The second source of funding for the one-time acquisition costs would be $174,000 of available balance in the Asset Seizure Fund. The Asset Seizure Fund accounts for amounts forfeited in D.1
Packet Pg. 249
certain criminal cases and funds are available to be used for allowable law enforcement expenditures. This proposed expenditure would utilize all of the available balance in the Asset Seizure Fund. There are no ongoing Police Services funded by the Asset Seizure Fund and a budget amendment of $174,000 is proposed to allow for this expenditure.
In addition to the one-time cost of the purchase, the annual ongoing cost to maintain the ARV is estimated to be $1,500 and an annual replacement cost of $35,000 is expected to be incurred.
These ongoing costs will be funded by the General Fund and the costs will be incorporated into future Operating Budgets.
