CITY COUNCIL AGENDA ITEM NO. F.7
04/14/2026
SUBJECT: Approve the recommendation of the Parks and Recreation Commission to assign the name “Hope Park” to Parcel ‘Z’ of Subdivision 9597
DEPARTMENT: Parks and Recreation
STAFF: Harith E. Aleem, Director of Parks and Recreation Aaron Wanden, Park Maintenance Manager
Janice Ellis, Park Planner

TITLE/RECOMMENDATION
Adopt a Resolution approving the recommendation of the Parks and Recreation Commission to assign the name “Hope Park” to the park to be constructed on Parcel ‘Z’ of Seecon Financial and Construction Company, Inc. at 7590/7650 Lone Tree Way, Subdivision 9597.

FISCAL IMPACT
There is no fiscal impact associated with this staff report.

BACKGROUND
City of Brentwood Policy No. 50-1 addressing the Naming/Dedication of Public Facilities allows the Park and Recreation Commission to make recommendations to the City Council for the naming of City facilities (parks, open space, trails, recreation facilities, buildings, amenities, etc.). The City Council provides final approval.

Per the policy, facility names should be considered in a manner that provides easy and recognizable references for the City’s residents and customers. Preference should be given to geographical locations such as a specific place, major street, neighborhood or regional area of the City whenever possible, especially for major facilities. References to local topographical or geological features, local flora or fauna, and local historically or culturally significant names may be considered where appropriate or where a theme can be meaningful.

CITY COUNCIL AGENDA ITEM NO. F.7
04/14/2026
The project site located at 7590/7650 Lone Tree Way (Subdivision No. 9597) does not have any identified historical, cultural, or geographical naming features that would guide the naming of the proposed park.

The parcels at 7590 and 7650 Lone Tree Way, Brentwood, CA, were previously a residential home on approximately 5.5 acres. Furthermore, the subdivision has not been given a name by the developer.

There is a park in Antioch on Lone Tree Way named Lone Tree Park. Additionally, there are more than a dozen businesses whose names begin with ‘Lone Tree’. The Ad-Hoc Committee considered the context and character of the surrounding neighborhood. Hope Park will be the only park within a quarter mile radius with a play structure. The name refers to the positive expectations for this neighborhood to enjoy recreational activities close to home.

The Ad-Hoc Committee considered several park names for this park including Lone Tree Park, Lone Park, and Lone Star Park, among others. Ultimately, the Committee chose to recommend the name “Hope Park” to the City Council for approval. The name Hope Park reflects the hope of providing residents with opportunities to find joy while visiting the park.

NOW, THEREFORE, BE IT RESOLVED that the City Council of the City of Brentwood:

A. Hereby finds that with respect to Brentwood Municipal Code Section

16. 050. 040. B and Government Code section 66474:

1. That the proposed map is consistent with the community development plan and any applicable specific plans.

The City' s 2014 General Plan and 2023 Housing Element include goals and policies to ensure that adequate housing needs are met and that adequate housing opportunities are available and affordable to all residents of Brentwood. The proposed project meets the intent of the goals and polices established by the General Plan and Housing Element as follows:

a. Goal LU 1. (" Establish a land use pattern in Brentwood that provides for a diverse, self- sufficient community that offers a broad spectrum of job opportunities, housing types, community facilities, and commercial services.") The project would provide a land use pattern that would provide for a diverse and self- sufficient community that would offer a total of 36 detached market rate single- family residences. In addition, the project would provide two sets of duet units ( four total units), which would provide two very -low income units, and one low- income unit and one moderate income unit. b. Goal H- 1. (" Provide a diversity of housing opportunities to enhance the City' s living environment and to satisfy the shelter needs of all Brentwood residents.") The project would provide a diversity of housing opportunities by including 36 single- family market rate homes, and two sets of affordable duet units. The single- family homes would range in size from 2, 924 sf to 23, 834 sf. c. Goal H- 2 (" Encourage housing that is affordable to all socio- economic segments of Brentwood' s population.") The project includes four affordable units for very -low, low-, and moderate - income families for the Brentwood population, consistent with the City' s Affordable Housing Ordinance.
d. Action H 2a (' Compliance with Affordable Housing Ordinance: All new residential projects shall provide affordable housing units in accordance with the City' s adopted Affordable Housing Ordinance Chapter 17. 725. The City will continue to review and monitor the ongoing effectiveness of the City' s affordable housing ordinance to ensure developers provide a certain percentage of new homes to qualifying households at an affordable cost for the longest feasible time. The ordinance shall also continue to include a list of automatically available development incentives to encourage the construction of the inclusionary units, as well as provide the details for available alternatives to satisfy inclusionary housing obligations.") The project would comply with the Affordable Housing Ordinance by providing affordable units in accordance with the City' s adopted ordinance that was in effect at the time the project was deemed complete in April 2022 and is subject to the 10 percent affordability requirement. The project would provide four affordable units ( 10 percent) for very -low, low-, and moderate - income households. In addition the applicant is proposing to meet the density bonus requirements. The project developer would be required to enter into an Affordable Housing Agreement with the City prior to final map approval.

The project site is within the General Plan R- VLD land use designation, which provides for a density range from 1. 1 to 3. 0 dwelling units per acre. The 40 proposed units would result in an

overall density of 2. 45 dwelling units per acre, which is consistent with the density range of 1. 1 to 3. 0 dwelling units per acre. e. Action H 2h (" Density Bonus: Grant density bonuses for the provision of affordable housing as required by State law. Monitor statutory requirements for municipal density bonus requirements and make necessary changes in the Municipal Code to reflect State law.") The State Density Bonus law allows a housing development consistent with that law to develop at a density in excess of the density established for that General Plan land use without rezoning the site or requiring a General Plan amendment. The project site' s General Plan land use designation is R- VLD which allows for 1. 1 to 3. 0 units per acre, with a mid- range of 2. 0 units per acre. Therefore, the proposed 16. 32 -acre project is allowed to build up to the base density of 50 dwelling units ( Government Code § 65915 ( o)( 4)). The applicant is invoking the State Density Bonus law, a state mandate that allows for a ' density bonus", an amount over and above the allowable residential density when a project includes a qualifying affordability component. The project' s proposed density ( 2. 45 du/ a) is within the allowed range under the City' s current General Plan ( 3. 0 du/ a) and as a result is not proposing to utilize any of the allowed bonus units. The project is proposing to utilize certain waivers allowed under the Law with respect to some of the zoning criteria. f. Goal H 4 (" HOUSING OPPORTUNITIES GOAL: Provide equal housing opportunities for all residents of Brentwood.") The project provides 36 market rate homes and 4 affordable homes for the City of Brentwood, thus providing housing opportunities for all residents of the city.

2. That the design or improvement of the proposed subdivision is consistent with the community development plan and any applicable specific plans.

The Project Site is not currently within any adopted or proposed specific plan area. The design and improvements of the proposed subdivision are consistent with the General Plan, including with those goals and actions set forth above, as well as the following:
a. Policy CIR 1- 2. (" Ensure that the City' s circulation network is a wellconnected system of streets, roads, highways, sidewalks, and paths that effectively accommodates vehicular and non -vehicular traffic in a manner that considers the context of surrounding land uses and the needs of all roadway users.") Site access would be provided by Lone Tree Way, which ( at this location) is an arterial street leading to retail and dining. Lone Tree Way will be widened by the project.

In addition, two roadway connections would be constructed along Lone Tree Way to provide access to the proposed roadway network that would be constructed as part of the project. Sidewalks would be

included on both sides of the streets to allow for pedestrian circulation throughout the project site. A new sidewalk would also be constructed along the northern side of Lone Tree Way outside of the project boundary. Full right -of way improvements would be constructed within the street, including utilities, curb gutter, and a separated sidewalk.
b. Policy LU 1- 4 (" Require new development to occur in a logical and orderly manner, focusing growth on infill locations and areas designated for urbanization on the Land Use Map and be subject to the ability to provide urban services, including paying for any needed extension of services.") The proposed project is located within a developed area and will connect to adjacent existing infrastructure.

The project involves the construction of the necessary infrastructure to serve the proposed neighborhood and would include plans to connect to existing City infrastructure to provide water and sewer to the site. Storm water quality for the site will be achieved through self -treating areas on each lot and the private road network and include pervious pavers on each driveway, pursuant to Contra Costa County and State Water Control Resource Board regulations. A condition of approval requires the establishment of a Home Owner' s Association in order to maintain these water treatment facilities. c. Policy LU 1- 5 (" Encourage new development to be contiguous to existing development, whenever possible.") The proposed project is contiguous to existing development. Full right- of-way improvements would be constructed within the street, including utilities, curb gutter, and a separated sidewalk. The subdivision would be oriented in a similar pattern as typical single- family subdivision, thus creating a fabric of viable and interrelated neighborhoods.
d. Action LU 2a. Density Transition Policy Action. Action LU 2a of the General Plan requires a density transition for proposed lots facing or abutting existing residential lots zoned Ranchette Estate or of one acre or more, such that the proposed lots have a minimum area of 20, 000 square feet. The subject site is surrounded on three sides north, east and west) by six lots that are larger than one acre ( and one that is half of one acre) and therefore subject to the density transition policy. The applicant seeks a waiver of this requirement per the provisions of the State Density Bonus Law. Providing 20, 000 sf transition lots would physically preclude construction of 18 of the proposed units. This would reduce the overall density of the project as proposed. The City Council has reviewed the project' s eligibility for the requested waivers and finds that the Project qualifies for such waivers as set forth below.
e. Finally, the project complies with other applicable elements of the General Plan as described in finding A( 1) above.

3. That the site is physically suitable for the type of development.

The site is physically suitable for the type of development proposed by VTSM 9597 insomuch as the discharge of waste from the proposed subdivision will not result in violation of existing requirements prescribed by the California Regional Water Quality Control Board because the Permittee will be required to make the necessary improvements to tie in to the City' s stormwater and sewer facilities, as well as treat all stormwater runoff, and the design of the subdivision and the associated improvements is not likely to cause serious public health problems due to the fact that this project will be required to construct all of the necessary improvements needed to ensure a safe and healthy development, including all Federal, State, and local regulations.

4. That the site is physically suitable for the proposed density of development.

The site is physically suitable for the density of development proposed, in that it complies with the density allowed per the City' s General Plan and the State Density Bonus law. The project site is zoned R- 1- 12, which allows for

3. 0 units per acre and the General Plan land use designation is R- VLD which allows for 1. 1 to 3. 0 units per acre, with a mid- range of 2. 0 units per acre.

Therefore, the proposed 16. 32 -acre project is allowed to build up to the base density of 50 dwelling units ( Government Code § 65915 ( o)( 4)). The applicant is invoking the State Density Bonus law, a state mandate that allows for a " density bonus", an amount over and above the allowable residential density when a project includes a qualifying affordability component. Pursuant to the State Density Bonus law, 40 units are proposed, which will result in a density of 2. 45 dwelling units per acre, which is within the density determined to be suitable for development of this site by the General Plan.

5. That the design of the subdivision or the proposed improvements is not likely to cause substantial environmental damage or substantially and unavoidably injure fish or wildlife or their habitat unless an Environmental Impact Report was prepared with respect to the project and a finding was made pursuant to subdivision ( c) of Section 21081 of the Public Resources Code that specific economic, social, or other considerations make infeasible the mitigation measures or project alternatives identified in the Environmental Impact Report.

The design of the subdivision and the associated improvements have been analyzed for their impacts on the environment through the preparation of an initial study/ mitigated negative declaration ( IS/ MND) and, a Mitigation Monitoring and Reporting Program which includes feasible mitigation measures to ensure that any impacts identified as potentially significant in the IS/ MND will be reduced to a less than significant level.

6. That the design of the subdivision or type of improvements is not likely to cause serious public health problems.

The design of the subdivision and the type of improvements proposed are not likely to cause serious public health problems due to the fact that this Project includes proposed improvements necessary to ensure a safe and healthy development, including adequate wastewater and potable water infrastructure, streets that meet the City' s specifications, street lighting, and compliance with Federal, State, and local regulations designed to protect public health.

7. That the design of the subdivision or the type of improvements will not conflict with easements, acquired by the public at large, for access through or use of, property within the proposed subdivision.

The design of the subdivision and the associated improvements will not conflict with any easements acquired by the public at large for access through or use of property within the proposed subdivision as alternative access, utility, and irrigation facilities will be constructed, enabling continued service to properties serviced by existing easements.

B. Hereby finds that with respect to the density bonus requested by the Permittee pursuant to Brentwood Municipal Code Chapter 17. 720 and Government Code 65915- 65918 ( the " Density Bonus law"):

1. Qualification. The proposed project is proposing to provide at least five percent ( 5%) of the units for very -low income households, which meets the State' s Density Bonus Law threshold for a base density bonus ( Government Code § 65915 ( f)( 2)( B)( 1)( b)). The project qualifies for a density bonus, but is not seeking to develop above the density allowed by the City. The project is, however, requesting to utilize the waivers allowed under the Law with respect to some of the zoning criteria. The City Council has reviewed the project' s eligibility for the requested waivers and finds that the Project qualifies for such waivers.

2. Satisfaction of requirements. The Project shall, by incorporation of the conditions set forth herein, comply with all requirements of Brentwood Municipal Code Chapter 17. 720 and the Density Bonus law.

3. Requested concession. The provision of five percent ( 5%) of the units for very -low income households, meets the State' s Density Bonus Law threshold for a base density bonus ( Government Code § 65915 f)( 2)( B)( 1)( b)). The applicant is not requesting a concession.

4. Requested waivers. The Permittee has requested the following waivers.

Having determined that there are no grounds under the law for denying these requested waivers, the City Council grant the following requested waivers for the reasons stated below:

Michael Thompson, Police Lieutenant

TITLE/RECOMMENDATION
A Resolution (1) accepting the 2025 Military Equipment Annual Report; (2) determining that the Brentwood Police Department’s (BPD or Department) use of Military Equipment in 2025 complied with the Departments’ funding, acquisition and use policy (BPD Policy 708 (Policy 708)) and applicable State Laws; (3) renewing Ordinance No. 1037, thereby determining that Policy 708 shall be continued without change; and (4) approving the BPD’s purchase of military equipment to preserve life and enhance the safety of citizens and officers.

The ongoing annual operating cost of the Military Equipment outlined in Policy 708 and the projected military equipment acquisition for 2026 is included in the FY 2025/26 General Fund Operating Budget and will be included in the draft 2026/27- 2027/28 General Fund Operating Budget which will be presented to City Council for consideration at the Operating Budget Workshop in May 2026.

BACKGROUND
Assembly Bill 481 (AB 481), approved on September 30, 2021, by Governor Gavin Newsom (codified as Chapter 12.8 of the California Government Code and commencing with section 7070, et seq.), requires all California law enforcement agencies, including the Brentwood Police Department, to have a military equipment use policy approved by the agency’s governing body prior to requesting, seeking funding for, acquiring, collaborating with other jurisdictions about the deployment of military equipment, or using military equipment. The law requires this policy to be approved through the adoption of a local ordinance.

On May 10, 2022, the City Council adopted Ordinance 1037, https://ecode360.com/43627760?highlight=1037&searchId=16146133656965143

CITY COUNCIL AGENDA ITEM NO. F.8
04/14/2026
#43627760 approving the Brentwood Police Department’s Policy 708: Military Equipment Funding, Acquisition, and Use. Policy 708 adheres to California Government section 7070, et seq. with respect to the funding, acquisition, and use of military equipment.

Annual Military Equipment Report
Policy 708, Ordinance 1037, and Government Code section 7072 require the Police Department to do both of the following:
 Publish annually a military equipment report for the prior calendar year (1) summarizing the use of each type of military equipment approved by Policy 708, (2) summarizing any complaints or concerns received about the military equipment, (3) providing the results of any internal audits and information about violations of Policy 708, and any actions taken in response, (4) providing the total annual cost for each type of approved military equipment and the source of funds for military equipment in the upcoming year, and (5) inventorying the quantity of each type of military equipment possessed and listing the quantity to be acquired in the upcoming year.
 Hold annually at least one well-publicized and conveniently located community engagement meeting within 30 days of submitting and publicly releasing the military equipment annual report.

The Police Department complied with both of the forgoing requirements. On March 25, 2026, from 5:30-7:00 pm, the Department hosted a community engagement meeting at the Brentwood Community Center in person and over Zoom. The meeting was well-advertised and offered the opportunity for members of the public to receive information and ask questions regarding the Department’s military equipment. On April 6, 2026, the Police Department published its 2025 Military Equipment Annual Report to its website at the following link:
https://www.brentwoodca.gov/government/police/military-equipmentpolicy-reports Council Annual Review of the Military Equipment Annual Report and Policy 708
Under Government Code section 7071(e)(1-2), the City Council must annually review Policy 708 and the Department’s Military Equipment Annual Report and

CITY COUNCIL AGENDA ITEM NO. F.8
04/14/2026
determine whether each type of military equipment identified in the report has complied with all of the following standards:
 The military equipment identified in Policy 708 is necessary because there is no reasonable alternative that can achieve the same objective of officer and civilian safety.
 Policy 708 will safeguard the public’s welfare, safety, civil rights, and civil liberties.
 If purchasing the equipment identified in Policy 708, the equipment is reasonably cost effective compared to available alternatives that can achieve the same objective of officer and civilian safety.  The Police Department’s prior military equipment use complied with the military equipment policy that was in effect at the time, or if prior uses did not comply with the accompanying military equipment policy, corrective action has been taken to remedy nonconforming uses and ensure future compliance.

Additionally, after reviewing military equipment annual report and Policy 708, under Government Code section 7071(e)(1), the City Council must vote annually whether to continue Policy 708 without change or direct staff to return at a future City Council meeting with a proposed ordinance to amend or repeal Policy 708 and Ordinance 2022-1037 for the Council’s consideration.

Staff recommends that Council determine that Policy 708 be continued without change for the following reasons:
 The Department retains and employs limited military equipment to safeguard the safety of the public and staff. There are no tools or resources that are reasonable alternatives to achieve the same safety objectives than use of the military equipment listed in Policy 708 and the 2025 Military Equipment Annual Report.
 Policy 708 safeguards the public’s welfare, safety, civil rights and civil liberties.
 The Department adheres to the City’s purchasing policies when military equipment is purchased.
 During the month of December 2025, the Department’s Administrative Lieutenant, Range Staff Supervisor, Drone Supervisor and SWAT Team Leader completed an audit of the Department’s use of military equipment in 2025 and determined that the use of military equipment fully complied with Policy 708.

Staff recommends that Council adopt the proposed resolution (1) accepting the 2025 Military Equipment Annual Report, (2) determining that the Police Department’s use of military equipment in 2025 complied with Policy 708 and

CITY COUNCIL AGENDA ITEM NO. F.8
04/14/2026
applicable State law, (3) renewing Ordinance No. 1037, thereby determining that Policy 708 should be continued without change, and (4) approving the BPD’s purchase of military equipment to preserve life and enhance the safety of citizens and officers. The Department’s continued use of military equipment in the manner set forth in Policy 708 safeguards public and staff safety, and the public’s welfare, civil rights and civil liberties.

6 Introduction
On September 30, 2021, the Governor of the State of California approved Assembly Bill 481 (codified as Chapter

12.8 of the California Government Code) requiring law enforcement agencies such as the Brentwood Police Department to have a military use policy approved by the City Council prior to requesting, seeking funding, acquiring or using military equipment. Assembly Bill 481 allows the governing body to approve the policy within its jurisdiction only if it determines that the military equipment meets Specified Standards.

On May 10, 2022, the City of Brentwood City Council approved Ordinance 2022-1037 approving Brentwood Police Department Policy 708: Military Equipment. As required by Assembly Bill 481 and the Ordinance, annually the Brentwood Police Department must prepare a report on the use of each type of military equipment approved in the Policy over the previous year. Subsequently, the City Council must then review the Ordinance, Policy and Annual Report, and determine whether the Department’s use of military equipment in the previous year complied with the Policy, and whether to continue the Ordinance and Policy, take action (by ordinance) to modify the Policy or repeal the Ordinance.

As set forth in the Policy, the Brentwood Police Department retains and employs limited military equipment to safeguard its community. BPD officers, certified instructional staff, and specialized units receive training on the use of military equipment approved under the Policy.

This Annual Report outlines the Brentwood Police Department’s military equipment inventory and usage, community complaints over use of military equipment, and internal audits from January 1, 2025 through December 31, 2025. The Department will submit its Military Equipment Annual Report to City Council after December 31st of every year in compliance with Assembly Bill 481.

In compliance with Government Code section 7072, the Department conducted a public community engagement meeting regarding military equipment on March 25, 2026, from 5:30 p.m. to 7:00 p.m. The meeting was held in person at the Brentwood Community Center and was also made available via Zoom to facilitate public participation.

9 Summary of Military Equipment
The inventory of military equipment, particularly consumable material (ammunition, diversionary devices, Extended Range Impact Weapon –ERIW munitions, etc.) fluctuates regularly. This is based on a variety of factors including but not limited to operational usage, operational deterioration, training, maintenance, and expiration and replenishment guidelines. The Brentwood Police Department is committed to transparency in disclosing its military equipment inventory and related information to our community and elected officials in compliance with the law. The Department strives to provide the most accurate military equipment inventory and information.

Department Inventory of Military Equipment – Calendar Year 2025 (Jan 2025 – Dec 2025) The inventory of certain items of consumable military equipment (i.e. ammunition, diversionary devices, chemical agents, etc.) can fluctuate throughout the year. This can be due to operational usage, training usage, operational wear, and/or manufacturer recommended replacement guidelines. While the Department strives to provide accuracy in its inventory reporting as prescribed by law, certain consumable items are approximate and all totals reflected are the result of an annual count conducted during the month of December 2025.

Due to the age of many items (many of which were purchased before the implementation of Assembly Bill 481), the purchase prices listed are approximate and might vary from today’s prices compared to when the equipment was originally purchased. Additionally, prices of individual items might vary depending if the item was purchased as part of a bundle package or bulk quantity.

33 Chemical Agents and Chemical Agent Delivery Devices
Chemical Agents and Chemical Agent Delivery Devices: Chemical agent munitions, which are commonly referred to as “tear gas,” are used by the Department as a non-lethal tool to disburse rioting subjects and/or barricaded subjects. CS (2-Chlorobenzylidenemalonoitrile) and OC (Oleoresin Capsicum) are commonly used by law enforcement agencies across the United States.

CS is an irritating agent and lachrymator (irritates the eyes and causes tears to flow). CS has been medically tested in the UK and US, specifically by the U.S. Army. There are no known allergic reactions to CS. OC was de-regulated in California in 1996, is endorsed by the FBI, and is available to civilians to legally possess (2.5oz or less). OC is an inflammatory agent which causes involuntary closure of eyes (open 2-5 minutes) and respiratory inflammation (subsides in approximately 2 minutes).

Capability: Depending on the delivery method, chemical agents are capable of being introduced in close proximity or from a distance. Depending on the type of delivery system and/or quantity, chemical agents can be used to saturate individual suspects, violent crowds, or areas of varied size.

 Self-destructive, dangerous and/or combative individuals.  Riot/crowd control and civil unrest incidents.
 Circumstances where a tactical advantage can be obtained.  Potentially vicious animals.
 Training exercises or approved demonstrations.

Usage: Generally, during high-risk tactical incidents chemical agents can be used to dislodge a suspect from a stronghold location with the least possible danger to citizens, police, and the suspect. Chemical agents can also be used to prevent an armed suspect from accurately firing at citizens and/or officers. They can also be used in limited instances during civil unrest when objectively reasonable to defend against a threat to life or serious bodily injury to any individual, including the officer, or to bring an objectively dangerous and unlawful situation safely and effectively under control.

FISCAL IMPACT
The total contract amount for the work performed by Park Associates Inc., dba Park Planet for Stonehaven Park Playground Replacement, CIP Project No. 352-52456 (“Project”) is as follows:

Contractor Final Amount Council Approved
Amount (contract plus
10% contingency)
Park Associates Inc., dba

$253,081.39 $278,389.53
The final amount spent on the work performed was $253,081.39, which equals the base contract amount without the 10% contingency. This Project was funded by the Parks and Landscape and Lighting Assessment District (LLAD) Replacement Fund.

BACKGROUND
Stonehaven Park had two play equipment sites that were constructed in 2004. The playground footprint consisted of toddler swings and a climbing structure for the 2-5 year age group. The replacement was based on the industry standard 15-20 year warranty period and life expectancy for play structures of this type. The structures showed signs of excessive wear and tear on the features, as well as color fade due

CITY COUNCIL AGENDA ITEM NO. G.1

CITY COUNCIL AGENDA ITEM NO. G.2
04/14/2026
SUBJECT: Informational Report and discussion regarding the Administration, Qualification, and Selection Processes of the City’s Affordable Housing Program
DEPARTMENT: Community Development Department
STAFF: Alexis Morris, Director of Community Development Sylvia Elias, Housing Program Manager

TITLE/RECOMMENDATION
An Informational Report and discussion regarding the Administration, Qualification, and Selection Processes of the City’s Affordable Housing Program.

FISCAL IMPACT
There is no fiscal impact associated with this agenda item. Funding for the Affordable Housing Program is provided primarily from Affordable Housing In-Lieu fees collected in prior fiscal years. The current ordinance requires construction of affordable units and allows for in-lieu fees to be collected only in limited circumstances on smaller ownership developments. In approximately five years, when the in-lieu fee balance is exhausted, the General Fund will become the source of funding for this program.

Funding of about $675,000 per fiscal year has been incorporated into the City’s tenyear General Fund Fiscal Model since the ordinance was updated to require construction of affordable units.

BACKGROUND
On September 9, 2003, the City Council adopted Ordinance No. 756 amending the Municipal Code to add Chapter 17.725, which establishes an Affordable Housing Program.

On December 9, 2025, at its regular meeting, the City Council waived the first reading of Ordinance No. 1091 repealing and replacing Chapter 17.725 of the City of Brentwood Municipal Code relating to the Affordable Housing Program.

At the same meeting, a future item request was made by Vice Mayor Pierson and Council Member Mendoza requesting the City Council consider, discuss, and review

CITY COUNCIL AGENDA ITEM NO. G.2
04/14/2026
the goals of the program, the process of buyer notification and selection, and a potential update of the Municipal Code specific to the affordable housing program.

The City Manager suggested that staff bring forth the requested information in two parts: (1) provide an informational report to the City Council regarding the administration, qualification, and selection processes for the City’s Affordable Housing Program; and (2) provide an informational report regarding the review of Municipal Code Chapter 17.725, the Affordable Housing Program, as it pertains to equity, accessibility, anti-discrimination, and specific populations (such as seniors, disabled individuals, veterans, teachers, and first responders).

On January 13, 2026, at its regular meeting, City Council waived the second reading and adopted an ordinance repealing and replacing Chapter 17.725 of the City of Brentwood Municipal Code.

Since its inception, the Affordable Housing Program has been updated several times to align with current economic conditions and housing laws. The latest update now mandates an increased affordability requirement of 18%.

BRENTWOOD’S AFFORDABLE HOUSING PROGRAM
The purpose of the City’s Affordable Housing Program is to enhance the public welfare and ensure that further housing development contributes to the attainment of the City’s housing goals as described in the Housing Element of the General Plan, by creating, preserving, maintaining, and protecting housing affordable for households of very low, low, and moderate income, and to ensure that the remaining developable land in the City’s Planning Area is utilized in a manner consistent with the City’s housing policies and needs.

When the Affordable Housing Ordinance was originally adopted, the City Council approved it as a “living” document which would need to be amended from time to time. As staff implemented the direction of the ordinance, it was apparent that over time, market conditions change. Policy decisions and strategies regarding the City’s Affordable Housing Ordinance balance the need to meet State and regional housing mandates while addressing the community needs to ensure all income levels are provided affordable housing opportunities, as provided for in the City’s General Plan and Housing Element goals and policies.

CITY COUNCIL AGENDA ITEM NO. G.2
04/14/2026
Ordinance No. 1091
The current Affordable Housing Ordinance (Ordinance No. 1091) requires that developments of five or more lots or dwelling units designed and intended for residential occupancy in the City shall construct or make possible the construction of a minimum of eighteen percent (18%) of the total number of dwelling units within a residential development as affordable units.

The units are allocated to the following income levels for ownership and rental development:

Affordable Income Level for Ownership
and Rental Development
18% Requirement
Moderate Income Households 9%
Low Income Households 5%
Very Low-Income Households 4%
The current ordinance also provides an alternative equivalent proposal to building affordable units. An alternative equivalent proposal may include, but is not limited to, payment of an in-lieu fee for smaller ownership developments (consisting of five to eight dwelling units), dedication of vacant developable land, dedication of constructed units to the city’s affordable rental program, construction of affordable units on another site, or conversation of existing market rate units (either for sale or for rent) within the city to affordable units.

Establishing Sales Prices
Sales prices for ownership units and rents for affordable rental units are updated annually every July 1
st and posted on the City’s website. Updated affordable sales prices and rents are based on information from the State Department of Housing and Community Development (HCD), U.S. Department of Housing and Urban Development (HUD), and the affordable housing model prepared by the City’s housing division. The sales prices and rents for July 1, 2025 – June 30, 2026 are as follows:

CITY COUNCIL AGENDA ITEM NO. G.2
04/14/2026
Ensuring Affordability
Ownership units sold to income qualifying households remain affordable for a period of forty-five (45) years from the date of original occupancy and each subsequent ownership. The affordable unit may be sold at any time within the 45-year timeline at a price determined by the City to the next qualified buyer; the 45-year agreement renews with each new homeowner. Initial eligibility is determined by household size and annual income, followed by a standard lending process for mortgage approval.

Rental units dedicated into the City’s program are required to remain affordable for a period of fifty-five (55) years from the date of the initial rental or leasing period, or longer periods as may be required by state housing law. Rental program units include units dedicated as an alternative equivalent prior to Ordinance No. 1091, which are owned by the City and managed by a contracted property manager. All such units are rented to income-eligible tenants, subject to a standard application process involving a background check and a credit check and certified by the City’s housing division. Future rental units dedicated under Ordinance No. 1091 will most likely not be owned by the City, but by third-party ownership and management; all such units must be rented to income-eligible tenants certified by the City’s housing division.

Initial qualification is based on income and household size, and subject to a standard application process involving background and credit check.

CITY COUNCIL AGENDA ITEM NO. G.2
04/14/2026
Affordable Housing Agreement
After project approval, Affordable Housing Program units are implemented through an affordable housing agreement between the developer and the City that is approved by the City Council. The agreement defines the number of affordable units built for that particular development and estimated construction schedule. Per the Affordable Housing Ordinance, affordable units cannot be segregated or grouped into one area of a development. The ordinance requires that affordable units are distributed throughout the development. Buyers are selected for affordable units in each phase of the development as indicated in the agreement.

ADMINISTRATION OF THE AFFORDABLE HOUSING PROGRAM
The City’s Affordable Housing Program includes three main elements, which are discussed in more detail below:

1. Affordable Housing Purchase Program;

2. Gap Loan Program (down payment assistance for Affordable Housing Program buyers); and the

3. Affordable Rental Program.

To be eligible for the program, households must qualify under the Very Low-, Low-, or Moderate-Income guidelines above. Initial eligibility for the City’s purchase and rental programs is determined by household size and annual income. Final approval is subject to additional underwriting criteria, including credit checks, financial history, and background screening.

The City’s Affordable Housing Program currently consists of 84 owner occupied units (soon to be 86 units in program; two units are currently pending the completion of sale/close of escrow) sold to income qualifying households, and 22 affordable rental units, for a total of 106 affordable units in the City’s program.

CITY COUNCIL AGENDA ITEM NO. G.2
04/14/2026
It is anticipated that approximately 144 additional affordable units could be built in the next 2-10 years; 67 affordable for-sale units (approved/in approval process) could be built and sold to income-qualifying households, and 77 affordable rental units (multi-household/in approval process) could be built and accepted in the City’s affordable rental program.

1. Affordable Housing Purchase Program
The main components of the Purchase Program are as follows:
 Applicant selection: Income-eligible applicants are selected randomly (via lottery) from the corresponding income-restricted wait list when an affordable unit becomes available (i.e., a random draw from the Very Low-income wait list has the opportunity to purchase an available Very Low-income unit). A separate wait list is maintained for households qualifying under the Very Low- , Low-, or Moderate-income guidelines. Staff meets with the selected applicant to review the program guidelines. When the applicant agrees to continue the process of purchasing the available unit, the applicant will:

1. meet with the City’s preferred lender to obtain a mortgage loan;

2. view the available unit and sign the purchase contract; and

3. enter into an agreement with the City prior to close of escrow.  Purchase Agreement and Equity: The Resale and Refinance and Option to Purchase Agreement (“Resale and Refinance Agreement” (Deed Restriction)), is the agreement between the City and affordable buyers for 45 years, where the affordable units cannot be sold as market rate homes for the term of the agreement. Homeowners are allowed to sell anytime within the 45-year term to income-qualifying households only. Throughout the term of the agreement, the City determines the home’s value and sales price. The deed restriction applies to each new homeowner; the new owner will sign a Refinance and Resale Agreement before the close of escrow, and the 45-year term will renew.

The principal occupant must be the homeowner. The affordable unit cannot be rented or leased throughout the term of the agreement.

The affordable homes gain equity through a calculation made from the percentage of median income change (gained) for Contra Costa County.

Median income information is obtained from the California Department of Housing and Community Development (HCD) each June. No cash out of equity is allowed. When an affordable homeowner is ready to sell their unit within the term of the agreement, a calculation of the amount of increase of the median income is made for the homeowner’s maximum sales price. The affordable homeowner will sell to the selected wait list applicant. The seller will receive all proceeds from the sale of the unit, the City has no financial interest in the sale of affordable homes.

Wait list(s) and Selection Process for Affordable Purchase Program Currently there are 444 total households on the wait lists for the Program – there are 182 on the Very Low-Income list, 182 on the Low-Income list, and 80 on the Moderate Income list. The administration of the wait list has evolved during the 20+ years of the program based on past learning experiences, the needs of applicants and efforts to make the process more efficient for applicants and staff, as described below.  Initial wait list approach: Shortly after the Affordable Housing Program was established in 2003, the City announced the opening of wait lists for income qualifying, first-time homebuyers interested in purchasing an affordable unit.

The Affordable Housing Purchase Program wait list application stated the three income categories that would be accepted (very low, low, and moderate income), explained the guidelines of the program, included a future seminar with staff (upon selection from the wait list), and other pertinent information, including the deadline date to turn in the application. There was only one wait list for the three income categories. As instructed on the application,

CITY COUNCIL AGENDA ITEM NO. G.2
04/14/2026
applicants were required to ensure the application was thoroughly complete and accurate, and were required to sign a disclosure attesting to the veracity of the information provided.

The initial application did not clearly state that applicants accepted to the wait list would be randomly selected (lottery) when an affordable unit was available for purchase; therefore, approximately 200 persons waited overnight in line at City Park to turn in their wait list application.

During the initial intake process, applicants were selected through a random drawing without regard to the income category of the available unit. As a result, individuals who did not meet the income requirements for a particular unit (e.g., very low-income applicants selected when a moderate-income unit was available), were still contacted and invited to meet with staff alongside the eligible applicant.

During these meetings, applicants who did not meet the income criteria for the available unit were informed that they would need to wait until a unit within their income category became available. Applicants were also advised that no specific timeline could be provided for when such a unit would be offered.

This process resulted in several challenges. Applicants experienced frustration due to the uncertainty and delay in securing a unit within their income category, and in some cases, loan rate locks expired during the waiting period.

Several applicants expressed concerns that the process created unrealistic expectations, and some elevated these concerns to City and Congressional officials.
 Current waitlist approach: To address the issues discussed above, staff implemented separate waitlists for Moderate-, Low-, and Very Low-Income categories. This approach has resulted in a more efficient, transparent, and streamlined selection process. Separating waitlists by income category provides applicants with a clear understanding of their eligibility, reduces confusion during the selection process, and minimizes the risk of selecting an unqualified applicant when a unit becomes available. Maintaining a single combined waitlist would create the potential for selecting applicants who do not meet the income requirements for an available unit (e.g., selecting a very low-income applicant for a moderate-income unit available for purchase.)

CITY COUNCIL AGENDA ITEM NO. G.2
04/14/2026
o Notification process: The opening of waitlists is announced via social media and the City’s website. Applications may be downloaded online or picked up at the City Hall Information Booth. When waitlists reopen, existing applicants receive instructions by mail from the Housing Division to update their information and reapply for the appropriate income category.
o Application materials: Waitlist applications include an informational cover page outlining program guidelines, income eligibility requirements, submission deadlines, and submission instructions. (See Exhibit A) The materials also describe the random selection (lottery) procedures and provide staff contact information.
o Application submission: Applications must be submitted by mail or inperson by the stated deadline. The waitlist opens for a 30-day period every two years, from September 1st through September 30th. Income guidelines—set by HCD and HUD—may change significantly over this two-year cycle. The biennial opening allows applicants to update their information and apply for a different income category, if applicable.

Loan Qualification Process
Shortly after the City’s Affordable Housing Program was established, local lenders were solicited for a “Preferred Lenders” list. Lenders are trained by housing staff on the City’s program guidelines and contracted to work with selected wait list applicants. Prior to the engagement of preferred lenders, the market was characterized by predatory lending and unsustainable loan products (risky loans with high interest and high costs, setting up future affordable homeowners for failure).

After meeting with staff regarding the City’s affordable housing guidelines and information regarding the available unit, applicants proceed to the next step, qualifying for a loan through the preferred lender.

The only loan product available in the City’s program is a fixed rate interest loan; which can be either a fixed rate conventional loan through the lender, a CalHFA fixed rate loan (State loan), or an FHA Fixed rate loan (Federal Government loan).

However, the lending process is like any other, credit scores and other financial history are the main factors in obtaining a mortgage loan.

CITY COUNCIL AGENDA ITEM NO. G.2
04/14/2026
Consistent with standard underwriting, mortgage approval is jeopardized by low credit scores, outstanding tax liens, and significant derogatory marks such as delinquent, late or unpaid accounts.

Additionally, preferred lender will perform a final verification of the applicant’s employment and income to re-verify qualifications meet the program’s income guidelines. If the income does not meet the minimum income qualifications or goes above the maximum income for the income category (applied to) and affordable unit available, the applicant does not qualify, and will not be able to continue the process to purchase the available home. Applicants who cannot continue with the purchasing process will be allowed to return to the wait list or apply at a later date (when wait list opens) with updated information. Another applicant will be randomly selected from the waitlist for the available unit.

Preferred lenders will offer applicants that did not qualify for a mortgage loan the opportunity to work with credit counselors approved by their financial agency.

Preferred lenders make themselves available to affordable applicants to answer any questions to aid in the repair of credit or other financial issues. This provides the applicants the knowledge and understanding of their financial status and what is required for future success in home purchasing (and other) opportunities.

2. First Time Homebuyer Gap Loan
The City’s gap loan is currently available for affordable program homebuyers. The gap loan is a deferred loan, with no monthly payments, with an interest rate of 3% throughout the term of the loan. The gap loan may provide down payment assistance up to a maximum of $35,000. The loan is due and payable upon sale of the home, refinance of the principal mortgage (only allowed to lower interest only), or may be paid in full at any time without penalty. The gap loan is available on a first-come, first-served basis. The gap loan has aided 35 affordable buyers in obtaining their dream of homeownership. To date, the gap loan has funded approximately $700,000 to affordable program buyers. The gap loan program is replenished as outstanding loans are repaid.

3. Affordable Rental Program
Per the current ordinance, affordable rental units may be owned by the City in perpetuity. The City has the option to sell the deed-restricted units after a term of 55

years as a market rate unit1, or keep the properties in the affordable rental program and continue to provide homes with significantly reduced rents to Brentwood’s most vulnerable residents. The affordable rental program offers month-to-month leases to income qualifying tenants under the Very Low-, Low-, and Moderate-income guidelines. A credit and/or background check will apply. Housing staff works with the property manager to review all rental applications before approving new tenants and conducts verification of qualifications on an annual basis. Rentals are provided in “turnkey” condition to qualifying tenants (i.e., appliances including refrigerator and clothes washer and dryer are included in rental unit). Applications for the rental program are continuously accepted via the property manager; a short wait list may apply.

Housing staff ensures that properties are well maintained by conducting quarterly “drive-by” inspections. The property manager conducts annual internal inspections of the rental units. The property manager, along with housing staff reviews work orders submitted by the tenant regarding maintenance of the property or any repairs or replacement needed (i.e, appliances, plumbing issues, landscape issues, etc.)

1 Before converting affordable units into market rates units (after 55-year term), owner must provide notice to qualified entities (i.e., non-profits) that may purchase the property to maintain its affordability, a process outlined by the California. Department of Housing and Community Development (HCD).

Application Process for the Affordable Rental Program
Rental units are available to households that qualify under the Very Low-, Low-, or Moderate-income guidelines.

Interested persons are directed to the City’s contracted property manager to apply for an available affordable rental unit. Applicants meeting the rental program’s criteria (affordable income qualifications and financial history/background check) will be offered an available unit to rent. Rents are established based on information received from HUD for Contra Costa County. The applicant will enter into a lease agreement with the contracted property manager. Leases are on a month-to-month basis; which allows a more flexible term for the tenant, with no penalty of ending the lease prior to one year.

Currently, the City’s affordable rental program owns and maintains 22 affordable rental units, which were dedicated to the City as part of past development projects.

CITY COUNCIL AGENDA ITEM NO. G.2
04/14/2026
The last dedicated unit accepted into the City’s rental program was in 2015. In the future, multi-family projects will likely be large projects that will have multiple affordable units distributed throughout the project and not in separate buildings that can be dedicated to the City. This would make ownership and management by the City infeasible. Therefore, although the current affordable housing ordinance allows new developments to dedicate units to the City’s affordable rental program, units will likely be owned and managed by another party.

ONGOING UPDATES TO THE PROGRAM/PROCESS
The Program has Administrative Guidelines that were created in January 2006 and has only undergone minor updates since. Therefore, staff initiated an update of the Guidelines mid-2025 with several goals in mind, as described below. Based on the City Council future agenda item request on December 9th, this project is on hold in the event the Council provides direction that impacts the Administrative Guidelines for the program. Ideally, the updated Administrative Guidelines would be complete by the end of 2026.
 Update the guidelines to reflect the latest version of the Ordinance: Updating the program guidelines to reflect the latest ordinance version ensures legal compliance, improves consistency, and enhances transparency. Aligned guidelines streamline the approval process, reduce ambiguous, conflicting, or obsolete regulations, and help implement community-driven goals, such as new housing or zoning standards.
 Update the rental program administration to include processes for rental units that will not be owned by the City: Updating rental program administration to include non-City owned units is crucial to ensure consistent enforcement of local ordinances (renting to appropriate income levels, rent stabilization, justcause eviction), collect accurate data for housing policy decisions, and provide a central registry for tracking rent increases and tenancy changes in the City’s rental program. This creates standardized regulations for landlords and tenants, improves compliance with state laws, and allows the City to manage renter protections uniformly, regardless of ownership.
 Add one of the following requirements for homebuyer counseling before applying for the wait list:

1. Provide a video on the City’s website on the wait list process and program’s guidelines. Staff is exploring if we can require households to view this before allowing the submittal of the wait list application:

CITY COUNCIL AGENDA ITEM NO. G.2
04/14/2026
Creating a mandatory video tutorial on the city’s website is an effective, accessible way to ensure applicants understand the wait list process, income guidelines, and selection procedures. Implementing a "watchto-submit" requirement via an acknowledgment checkbox ensures compliance and reduces incomplete applications.

2. Mandate completion of a HUD-approved education course, ensuring applicants are mortgage ready. Requirements often include a 6-8-hour in-person workshop, providing a valid completion certificate and the end of the course.

3. Mandate a CalHFA-approved, eight-hour online first-time homebuyer course (could be a cost of up to $100) through eHome or in-person sessions via NeighborWorks America.

In addition to the update to the Administrative Guidelines, staff is working on the following minor projects related to the Program:
 Providing application information in Spanish;
 Updating the application with additional information/disclaimers regarding homebuyer counseling, how affordable mortgages work, credit requirements, etc.; and
 Creating a reformatted and dedicated web page for applicants with information regarding the waitlists, application process and the Program’s Guidelines. This information is already on the City’s website, but this would make it more accessible.

CITY COUNCIL AGENDA ITEM NO. G.3
04/14/2026
SUBJECT: Approve the Engineering and Traffic Survey and adopt the updated speed limits for various streets within the City of Brentwood
DEPARTMENT: Engineering
STAFF: Allen Baquilar, Director of Engineering/City Engineer Anju Pillai, Engineering Manager

TITLE/RECOMMENDATION
Adopt a Resolution (1) approving the Engineering and Traffic Survey and (2) establishing and adopting the updated speed limits for specified streets within the City of Brentwood.

FISCAL IMPACT
The Engineering and Traffic Survey was performed by TJKM Transportation Consultants, the on-call traffic consultant to the City, for a total cost not to exceed $28,000. Funding for the survey is provided by the General Fund, which has sufficient FY 2025/26 Operating Budget for this expenditure.

If the survey is approved, the cost to install the recommended new speed limit signs is estimated to be about $5,000. Funding for the new signs would be provided by the General Fund, which has sufficient FY 2025/26 Operating Budget for this expenditure.

BACKGROUND
Speed limits in California are set according to state law and must follow a specific process before they can be enforced using radar technology. This process requires an Engineering and Traffic Survey (E&TS), which is a study performed by a licensed engineer to determine how fast drivers are actually traveling on a road. The study looks at the “85th percentile speed,” meaning the speed that 85% of drivers are traveling at or below under normal conditions. The survey also reviews collision history, road conditions, visibility, and other safety factors. This process helps ensure that speed limits are set at safe and reasonable levels and that radar enforcement can be used consistent with the California Vehicle Code.

CITY COUNCIL AGENDA ITEM NO. G.3
04/14/2026
In 2021, California passed Assembly Bill 43 (AB 43), which gave cities more flexibility to lower speed limits to improve safety. Instead of relying only on how fast most drivers are traveling, cities can now also consider factors like pedestrian and bicycle activity, crash history, and the surrounding environment (such as whether the street is near schools, parks, or busy commercial areas), as specified in the California Vehicle Code. This allows speed limits to better reflect real-world safety conditions.

In 2022, Assembly Bill 1938 (AB 1938) built on these changes by allowing cities to reduce speed limits even further—by up to an additional 5 mph below the typical threshold based on driver speeds. However, there is still a cap on how much the speed limit can be reduced overall. The law also clarified that these lower speed limits can still be enforced using radar, as long as they are supported by a proper engineering and traffic survey conducted in accordance with the California Vehicle Code.

Together, these statutes relaxed the strict 85th-percentile rule and provide cities with additional flexibility to establish safety-based speed limits, provided such limits are supported by a valid engineering and traffic survey and comply with the California Vehicle Code.

Prior to approval of AB 43, E&TS were generally considered valid for up to 10 years for radar enforcement purposes. Following the approval of AB 43, an E&TS may now remain valid for up to 14 years provided the survey was conducted in accordance with current statutory requirements and roadway, traffic, and safety conditions have not materially changed. Under California Vehicle Code §40802, a roadway may be deemed a speed trap if radar enforcement is conducted without a valid and current E&TS.

The City has 51 street segments where an E&TS is required to establish radar enforceable speed limits. Of these, four street segments have speed limits that have expired due to exceeding the 14-year validity threshold, one street segment was recently constructed, and the remaining have speed limits that are scheduled to expire in 2027, 2028 and 2029.

Engineering staff has selected 19 street segments for inclusion in the current survey effort. These segments include the four with expired speed limits, the recently constructed segment, and 14 additional segments whose surveys will expire within the next couple of years. Approval of the E&TS will establish updated speed limits for these segments and maintain radar enforceability for up to 14 years, provided

CITY COUNCIL AGENDA ITEM NO. G.3
04/14/2026
roadway, traffic and safety conditions do not materially change. Conducting the surveys in phases allows the City to maintain radar-enforceable speed limits while efficiently managing staff and consultant resources.

ANALYSIS
TJKM Transportation Consultants completed the E&TS for 19 street segments in the City in March 2026 (Attachment 3). A summary of the recommended speed limits (as well as existing speed limits and 85th percentile limits) is provided in Attachment 2.

Engineering staff, in collaboration with the Police Department, have reviewed the findings and concur with the recommended speed limits as set forth in the proposed Resolution.

NEXT STEPS
If the Engineering and Traffic Survey is approved, Engineering will coordinate with Public Works staff to update speed limit signage as necessary to match the newly approved speed limits.
