PROCLAMATION RECOGNIZING
NATIONAL VIETNAM WAR VETERANS DAY - MARCH 29, 2026
WHEREAS, the Vietnam War was a long, costly, and divisive conflict that pitted the communist government of North Vietnam against South Vietnam and its principal ally, the United States; and
WHEREAS, for almost two decades during the conflict, Americans raised their right hands and committed to serve and defend our Constitution as uniformed members of the United States Armed Forces during a time when opposition to the Vietnam War created a bitter division among Americans; and
WHEREAS, throughout the years of the Vietnam War, more than 3 million people were killed, including over 58,000 Americans, while 9 million Americans returned home with the title of United States Veteran. At the time of their return many of these veterans were not welcomed home or thanked for their service due to opposition to the war. That's why today and every day, we honor their bravery and commitment and give thanks to a generation of Americans who valiantly fought in service of their country; and
WHEREAS, the City of Buellton honors all those who served in the Vietnam War and recognizes the continued impact the conflict has on so many veterans and their families, caregivers, and survivors; and
NOW, THEREFORE, I, Mayor David Silva, do hereby recognize March 29, 2026, as NATIONAL VIETNAM WAR VETERANS DAY in the CITY OF BUELLTON and commemorate the hardships and sacrifices of those who served and their families who supported them before, during, and after the war.
PRESENTED this 26th day of March 2026.

Monthly Treasurer’s Report
For the month ending in February 28, 2026
March 26, 2026
This report presents the City’s cash activity and investment portfolio as of February 28, 2026. The report includes:
1) Cash and investments at February 28, 2026 compared to the prior month;
2) A reconciliation of cash and investments to City ledger balances; 3) All investments managed by the City on its own behalf; 4) Beginning of year fund balance, revenues, expenditures and ending fund balance for each fund at February 28, 2026
The following schedule is a summary of the City’s cash and investments based on recorded value as of February 28, 2026, compared with the prior month.
January 31, 2025 February 28, 2026 $ Change
Cash - Pooled $ 1,450,529.77 $ 2,040,375.68 $ 589,845.91 Investments held by the City 20,139,334.35 20,187,841.47 $ 48,507.12 TOTAL CASH AND INVESTMENTS $ 21,589,864.12 $ 22,228,217.15 $ 638,353.03 Summary of activity for the Month and Future Liquidity: The majority of the variance in the City's reported cash and investment balances from the prior month is attributable the receipt of January 2025 Transient Occupancy Tax (TOT) revenue and December 2025 sales tax revenues, partly offset with monthly operating costs.
Additionally, investment values also increased due to changes in interest earnings from money market accounts, the Local Agency Investment Fund (LAIF), Certificates of Deposit (CDs), U.S.
Treasuries, and corporate bonds. The portfolio remains sufficiently liquid to meet expected expenditures over the coming six months.

As of February 28, 2026
Page | 4
Currently, short-term excess cash is primarily invested in the Local Agency Investment Fund (LAIF) administered by the State Treasurer. This is a high-quality investment available in terms of safety, liquidity, and yield. Due to fluctuations in the marketplace, the City may have some investments with a current market value that is greater or less than the recorded value. This difference has no effect on investment yield as the City intends to hold the securities to maturity. However, generally accepted accounting principles require that market gains and losses be reported as interest earnings or losses at year-end.

Quarterly Financial Report – FY 2025-26 Second Quarter
Unaudited Financial Data Second Quarter Ending December 31, 2025 1 Overview
The purpose of this financial report is to provide
financial information for the City of Buellton.
This report focuses on the Second Quarter of
fiscal year 2025-26 and covers the period July 1,
2025, through December 31, 2025. The report is
presented quarterly and concentrates on the
General Fund and Enterprise Funds. The
quarterly financial report presents the City’s
financial position, considers economic factors
and highlights trends based on the City’s budget
versus what actually occurred during the period.
A discussion of other economic factors provides
a means of comparing the local economy against
larger economic events that may affect the City
of Buellton. This quarterly financial report is a
valuable tool for the Council, staff, and general
public.
U.S Economy
The U.S. economy was characterized by a
substantial government shutdown, broad new
tariff measures, and steady but declining growth
by the end of 2025. Despite gains earlier in the
year, 2025 Q4 experienced a significant
acceleration due to fiscal constraints and traderelated challenges.
The Bureau of Economic Analysis (BEA) reported
that the real gross domestic product (GDP) grew
at an annualized rate of 0.7% in Q4 2025
(October through December), a decline from the
4.4% growth in Q3. On an annual basis, GPD rose
2.1%. The slowdown at the end 2025 largely
reflected the impact of a six-week federal
government shutdown and the early market
disruptions triggered by the new “Liberation
Day” tariffs, which outweighed earlier gains in
consumer spending and business investments.
As of December 2025, the U.S. Consumer Price
Index (CPI) increased 3.1% over the previous 12
months, indicating a modest upward trend in
consumer prices. Shelter costs remained the
largest contributor, reflecting constant pressure
from limited housing inventory. Energy prices
fluctuated in Q4 due to supply chain
realignments following new trade policies. Food
prices continued to experience a steady increase
of 0.4% in December. Excluding food and
energy, the core CPI remained high due to
higher personal care and medical service costs,
partially offset by ongoing price normalization in
the used-vehicle market that had been inflated
due to car shortages and supply chain
disruptions.
The labor market showed signs of cooling. The
Bureau of Labor Statistics (BLS) reported the
national unemployment rate rose to 4.3% in
December 2025. Total non-farm payroll
employment increased by 181,000 over the
course of the year, the weakest annual
performance since 2020. While healthcare and
social assistance remained the strongest sources
of job creation, the federal government sector
experienced greater employment losses,
reflecting the prolonged shutdown and ensuing
budget realignments. Hiring in manufacturing
and retail also weakened as companies adapted
to the newly imposed 10% minimum reciprocal
tariff framework.
As of December 2025, the U.S. housing market
remained constrained. According to the
National Association of Realtors (NAR) the
national median price for a single-family home
was $432,100 at the end of the year. Mortgage
rates remained elevated, holding in the 6.7%–

State Economy
By the end of 2025, California’s economy was
characterized by a persistent structural
slowdown, a cooling labor market and housing
market with limited inventory and persistent
high borrowing costs. Despite retaining its
position as a leading global economy, the state
faced notable year-end pressures from a
six-week federal shutdown and the rollout of
new national emergency tariffs.
California’s GDP growth slowed sharply at yearend. The BEA reports that California’s real GDP grew by 0.6% in Q4, following a strong 4.3%
annual growth rate in Q2 2025. For the full year
2025, the state’s economy expanded by 1.9%,
trailing the national average of 2.1%. While
early-year growth was supported by AI and
software investment, Q4 was slowed down by
reduced venture capital activity and a slowdown
in the logistics sector due to new trade policies.
According to the BLS, as of December 2025,
California’s Consumer Price Index (CPI) rose by
3.2% over the previous 12 months. Excluding
food and energy, the “core” CPI increased 3.1%
over the same period. Food prices rose 3.4%,
while energy prices experienced a volatile Q4.
Gasoline prices rose to 4.2% by December, while
electricity rose 6.8%, and natural gas increased
12.4%. Among services, shelter costs increased
3.9% annually, continuing to exert pressure on
household budgets.
According to the Employment Development
Department (EDD), California's unemployment
rate increased to 5.5% in December 2025. This
rise reflects modest softening in hiring that
began in the summer. Total non-farm payroll
employment declined by 11,200 jobs from the
prior month, bringing the state’s total to roughly
18.0 million jobs.
Five of California's 11 industry sectors gained
jobs in December with Private Education and
Health Services (+5,000) posting a gain for the
47th straight month, driven by continued
strength in Healthcare and Social Assistance.
Leisure and Hospitality (+3,700) saw modest
gains but slowed as consumers discretionary
spending tightened. Government (+4,500)
recorded the second largest growth, led by
hiring at the Local Government level (+3,900).
The construction sector (-5,000) saw the
sharpest monthly drop as persistent rain stalled
projects. These losses were most concentrated
in utility system construction and building
finishing contractors, both of which reported
higher-than-normal declines for the period.
California's housing market continues to
struggle with affordability issues. According to
the California Association of Realtors, the
statewide median sales price of a single-family
home fell slightly to $850,680 in December.
Elevated mortgage rates, holding between 6.7%
and 7.1%, continued to suppress buyer demand.
Affordability remained severely limited, with
only 18% of households able to purchase a
median-priced home amid rising consumer debt
and weak wage growth.

Quarterly Financial Report – FY 2025-26 Second Quarter
Unaudited Financial Data Second Quarter Ending December 31, 2025 3 City of Buellton Economy
The City’s General Fund ended the Second Quarter of 2025-26 with about $12.74 Million in Cash Balance.
The City’s General Fund Reserve Policy states the reserve level must be maintained at 35 percent of budgeted operating expenditure. The current operating expenditure budget is about $13.03 million, which makes the target reserve level approximately $4.56 million. Of the current cash balance, about $8.18 million is available for current and future capital improvement projects, or any other use as stated in the City’s Reserve Policy. Current revenue through December 31, 2025, is 33.76 percent of budget projections while current expenditures are at 44.19 percent of budget.
The City of Buellton’s economy was characterized by a resilient fiscal position, steady performance in core tax revenues, and a cautious outlook due to softening consumer spending. While the City maintained strong cash reserves, it faced localized headwinds from high interest rates and fluctuating demand in the tourism and construction sectors.
Sales tax revenues are significantly concentrated among several key business sectors, specifically Autos and Transportation, Fuel and Service Stations, Restaurants and Hotels, and Business and Industry. These sectors collectively represent a significant share of taxable sales and play a critical role in supporting local revenue. Their economic impact is substantial, driven by high-value transactions, consistent consumer demand, tourism activity, and business investment. As a result, changes in these sectors can have a direct and meaningful effect on overall sales tax performance and fiscal stability, underscoring the importance of a balanced and resilient local economy.
The City’s TOT revenue has been supported by a 69% occupancy rate for FY 2024-25. For the period July 2025 and December 31, 2025, the average occupancy rate is 67%. Furthermore, the recent voterapproved measure increasing the City’s TOT rate from 12% to 14% is anticipated to provide additional revenue growth beginning in the upcoming fiscal year and may help offset potential revenue losses from any future decline in occupancy. While sales tax and TOT revenues may fluctuate with tourism and broader economic trends, property tax revenue is projected to grow at a moderate and stable rate. Key factors to monitor include mortgage rates, inflation, and tourism demand, all of which will influence the City’s overall revenue stability.
The City has two Enterprise Funds: Water and Sewer Funds. The goal of these funds is to finance or recover the cost of providing services to the public through user charges. These funds are supported by charging water and sewer services. The Wastewater Fund and Wastewater Capital Fund ended the Second Quarter with a combined Fund Balance of about $1.98 Million and about $579,756 in cash.
Wastewater operating revenue ended the Second Quarter at 45.86 percent while operating expenses were at 55.11 percent. The Water and Water Capital Fund ended the Second Quarter with a combined Fund Balance of about $11.01 Million and $5.65 Million in cash. Water Fund Operating revenues ended the Second Quarter at 53.71 percent while operating expenses were at 47.07 percent. 35 of 161

Total revenues through the Second Quarter are $237,434 (4.03%) higher than the previous fiscal year.
The revenue category with the largest dollar growth is “Taxes” with an increase of $280,751 (5.33%).
The increase is mainly due to additional revenue collected from the Transient Occupancy Tax (TOT), 36 of 161
Quarterly Financial Report – FY 2025-26 Second Quarter
Unaudited Financial Data Second Quarter Ending December 31, 2025 5 following the TOT rate increase from 12% to 14%, which took effect on February 1, 2025. The second largest dollar increase category, “Revenue from Other Agencies” increased by $65,030 primarily due to a grant received from the Office of Transportation Safety (OTS) and recognition of a grant received from CalRecyle for SB1383 compliance. Revenue growth in Charges for Current services is due to the increased participation in Buellton Recreation Programs. Increase in the Fines and Penalties category is due to code enforcement fines.
The revenue category with the largest dollar decrease is “Use of Monies and Properties” with a decrease of $132,249 primarily due to declining interest rates resulting from changes in market interest rates and corresponding decrease in the fair market value of the City’s investment, which are required to be recorded at fair market value.
Total expenditures are about $1 million (14.33%) higher than the previous fiscal year, with the increase attributable to several key expenditure categories. Employee Services rose by $257,303 (20.61%), primarily due to the 5.0% cost-of-living adjustment granted to all full-time City employees effective July 1, 2025, along with merit-based pay increases and additional benefits, including a monthly housing allowance. The increase also reflects the addition of the newly approved Administrative Analyst position.
The Operating and Maintenance expenditure category increased by $762,340 (19.09%) compared to the same period last year. The primary driver of this increase was a $500,000 contribution to the Children’s Museum to support its startup costs, which is expected to benefit the community once the facility opens.
To further meet community needs, the City also increased grant funding for local organizations by approximately $50,000. Additional significant expenditures included a $175,000 Additional Discretionary Payment (ADP) toward the City’s unfunded accrued liability (UAL). Finally, the contract for Santa Barbara County Sheriff services rose by nearly $150,000 (5.2%) for the fiscal year, or $37,500 per quarter, contributing notably to the overall expenditure growth.
Capital improvement projects (CIP) expenditures currently in progressthrough December 31, 2025, total about $1.73 Million ($3,917, or 0.23%, less than last year) and are as follows:
• Project #092-220 Willemsen Parking Lot - $1,154,432
• Project #092-307 McMurray Road Widening/TS - $90,966
• Project #092-309 West Highway 246 Safety Improvements - $5,633 • Project #092-322 FY 2023-24 and FY 2024-25 Road Maintenance Project - $472,417 • Project #092-324 FY 2025-26 Road Maintenance Project - $5,488 The minor capital expenditure category compared to last year decreased by $9,809 (22.01%) due to the purchase of a traffic speed trailer the prior year.

Quarterly Financial Report – FY 2025-26 Second Quarter
Unaudited Financial Data Second Quarter Ending December 31, 2025 6 Top Five General Fund Revenues
Sales Tax
At the end of the Second Quarter, the City received 50.65 percent of the total projected Sales Tax revenue. Payments are recorded when received and applied to the corresponding month of sales; usually payment is received from the State of California two months after the sales tax is collected. Revenue from sales tax has been received through December 2025. Sales tax revenue fluctuates each month in conjunction with seasonal flows.
Transient Occupancy Tax (TOT)
TOT revenue is a major component of the City’s General Fund. Effective February 1, 2025, the TOT rate increased to 14 percent of the total taxable rent collected from each hotel within the City. Prior to this adjustment, the rate remained at 12 percent since February 1, 2013. TOT payments for the reporting period are due on the 20th of the following month and cause revenue streams to lag one month. The City has received 52.05 percent of anticipated revenue through December 2025.
Property Tax
The City’s property tax revenues are at intervals set by the Santa Barbara County Auditor-Controller, usually in December and April. As of the end of the Second Quarter, the City has received 58.08 percent of projected property tax revenue. The City’s ongoing share of property tax is projected to grow at a steady pace as the current housing market conditions remain stable. This category is expected to conclude the fiscal year within budget.
Property Tax in Lieu of Motor Vehicle License Fee (MVLF Swap) Payments from the Santa Barbara County Auditor-Controller are received throughout the year, usually January and June. This revenue is trending upwards based on historic receipts.
Top Five Revenues for the City of Buellton’s General Fund are Sales Tax, Property Tax, Transient Occupancy Tax (TOT), Motor Vehicle License Fee (MVLF) and Franchise Fees. These revenues account for about 90% of total General Fund Revenues.

Quarterly Financial Report – FY 2025-26 Second Quarter
Unaudited Financial Data Second Quarter Ending December 31, 2025 8 Figure 1: YTD Percentage of Expenditures by Department
The City Council department is expected to remain within budget at the end of the fiscal year. Year-todate expenditures exceed 50% of the department’s budget, primarily due to $36,441 (20.95%) in special election-related expenditures. The City Attorney Department experienced a slight budget overage due to expenditures related beyond the retainer amount such as services for code enforcement cases. The overage was offset by revenue generated from code enforcement fines.
The Non-Departmental budgetary unit includes one-time annual payments early in the fiscal year. Those annual payments include: Property and liability insurance, Worker’s Compensation Insurance, CalPERS Unfunded Accrued Liability (UAL), support for community organizations and support for the Buellton Senior Center. Other notable expenditures within the Non-Departmental budget include a contribution to the Children's Museum and monthly payments for contract services with the Buellton Visitors Bureau.
The Non-Departmental budget is projected to remain within budget by year-end.
The City of Buellton contracts with the City of Goleta for library services. The annual cost of providing library services is paid as a lumpsum in July causing the Library Department to nearly meet its budget early in the fiscal year. The Library Department is expected to remain within budget at the end of the fiscal year.

This cost category also includes expenditures incurred for Buellton Recreation programs and Art and Culture Programs. There is currently a budget overage due to the timing of one-time annual payments at the beginning of the fiscal year. However, this category is expected to remain within budget by yearend.
The overage in the Supplies and Materials category is primarily due to the purchase of supplies for miscellaneous repairs throughout the year. These expenditures, while contributing to the current overage, were necessary to support ongoing maintenance needs and ensure timely repairs.
General Fund Trend
Figure 3 illustrates the Quarterly General Fund Revenue versus Expenditure Trend over the last five years. As illustrated in the figure, the City has demonstrated steady financial growth over the past five fiscal years. Both revenue and expenditures have shown upward trends, consistent with the expansion of municipal services and community investments. Revenue has exceeded expenditures in most quarters, maintaining the City’s strong financial position. The figure also indicates that while revenue cash flows often trail expenditures by one to two quarters, they typically surpass them by year-end, underscoring a sustained pattern of fiscal growth.

Revenue and Expenses
Table 8 summarizes Revenue and Expenses for the Wastewater and Wastewater Capital Funds. On the Financial Statements, both funds are combined as one fund. The Wastewater Capital Fund is structured to record capital contributions and is used to record capital improvements that enhance capacity. The change in Fund Balance is due to planned operating and CIP expenses exceeding estimated revenue from charges for wastewater service and connection fee revenue and offset by any existing Fund Balance. The Wastewater Funds ended the Second Quarter with approximately $579,756 in combined cash and combined Fund Balance of approximately $1.98 Million (Table 7).
Table 9 illustrates the Wastewater Fund budget to actuals. Wastewater Fund operating expenses exceeded operating revenues by $317,053 at the end of the Second Quarter (excluding Capital Improvement expenses). In accordance with Generally Accepted Accounting Principles (GAAP), capital expenses are not recorded as expenditures; rather, depreciation expense is recorded over each asset’s useful life. The amount spent on capital projects are capitalized and shown on the Balance Sheet at the end of the fiscal year.

CITY OF BUELLTON
City Council Agenda Staff Report
City Manager Review: SW
Council Agenda Item No.: 8
To: The Honorable Mayor and City Council
From: Cara Miralles, Associate Planner
Meeting Date: March 26, 2026
Subject: Receive and File the 2025 Annual Report on the Status of the General Plan
______________________________________________________________________________
BACKGROUND
Section 65400(a) of the California Government Code requires that an annual report be furnished to the City Council regarding the status of General Plan implementation. Annual reports are due on April 1st of each year and must be submitted to the State Office of Planning and Research (“OPR”) and Department of Housing and Community Development (“HCD”). The 2025 Annual Report on the Status of the Buellton General Plan is provided in (Attachment 1).
The Annual Report heavily focuses on progress made towards meeting the Regional Housing Needs Allocation (“RHNA”) in the Housing Element, which is the number of residential units and the percentage of affordable housing required to be accommodated every eight-year cycle. The current cycle spans from 2023-2031. This accommodation is accomplished through State mandate that the City’s General Plan Housing Element must identify enough sites adequate for future development to meet this allocation. The number assigned to Buellton for 2023-2031 is 165 units, of which 122 units are to be affordable to moderate, low, and very low-income households, and the remaining 43 units to be at market-rate. The City focuses on four primary means to accommodate RHNA goals:
Accessory Dwelling Units (ADUs), Multifamily Infill, Mixed Use Development, and the Affordable Housing Overlay Zone (“AHOZ”).
As of the 2025 reporting year, the City has exceeded its’ RHNA allocation for units affordable to very-low and low-income households. It is anticipated that ADUs and pipeline residential projects within the 2023-2031 cycle will meet or exceed the City’s allocation of units needed for moderate income and above-moderate income / market-rate units.

CITY OF BUELLTON
Annual Report on Status of the General Plan and Programs in Support of Affordable Housing
Reporting Period 1/1/2025 through 12/31/2025
______________________________________________________________________________
BACKGROUND
By law, every community in California is required to adopt a General Plan as the policy framework by which to guide future growth and development. At a minimum, each such Plan must contain seven mandatory elements (Land Use, Circulation, Housing, Conservation, Open-Space, Noise and Safety). Once adopted, zoning and development regulations that follow must be consistent with the policies of the General Plan.
Section 65400(a) of the California Government Code requires that an annual report be furnished to the City Council regarding the status of General Plan implementation.
Annual reports are due on April 1st of each year and must be submitted to the State Office of Planning and Research (“OPR”), the Department of Housing and Community Development (“HCD”), and the Buellton City Council.
For Buellton, the annual report is also used as barometer in evaluating progress in meeting the City’s fair share of regional housing needs.
ANALYSIS
General Plan Overview: The Land Use Element was last revised in 2008. The Circulation, Conservation and Open Space, Economic Development, Noise, Parks and Recreation, Public Facilities and Services elements were revised in 2007. The Safety Element was last revised in 2017. The City updated its Housing Element in 2023, which was certified by the State Housing and Community Development Department (HCD) on August 1st of that year. This report is based on the 2023-2031 Housing Element Update.
The complete Buellton 2025 General Plan is available for review on the City’s website at https://cityofbuellton.com/departments/planning.php.
A focused update of the Land Use and Circulation Elements was started in 2021 and has lent to the comprehensive 2050 General Plan update which is underway and anticipated to be complete by Winter 2026/2027. General Plan Update progress can be viewed on the City’s Engage webpage at https://buellton.civilspace.io/en/projects/general-plan-2050.
Housing Element Overview: The Regional Housing Needs Allocation (“RHNA”) process is part of a statewide mandate to address housing needs related to future growth in the State. The needs assessment process sets numeric targets every eight years for each jurisdiction with the overriding goal of assuring an equitable geographic distribution of affordable housing needs and responsibilities. The number assigned to the City of Buellton for 2023-2031 is 165 units, of which 74% are allocated to be affordable units 56 of 161
2025 General Plan Annual Progress Report Page 2 March 26, 2026 (55 units for very-low income households, 37 low income, and 30 moderate income) and 43 above-moderate income units.
The 2023 Housing Element relies upon four basic means by which to address the City’s RHNA goals: the Affordable Housing Overlay Zone (“AHOZ”), Accessory Dwelling Units (“ADUs”), Multi-Family Infill, and Mixed Use Development. Of these, the AHOZ is viewed as the principal means for accommodating the City’s RHNA goals.
Ordinance No. 05-05 was adopted by the City Council in 2005 and established the AHOZ sites and development standards in Buellton Municipal Code Section 19.16.013. The 2023-2031 Housing Element has kept the AHOZ program in place and is the basis for the “Adequate Sites” requirement, which are properties identified in a jurisdiction’s housing element that accommodate the number of units and affordability levels prescribed by the RHNA. In summary, the AHOZ allows “stand alone” residential projects irrespective of the underlying zone designation with a minimum base density of 25 units/acre, and imposes an inclusionary requirement, mandating that at least 20% of the base density be affordable to very low, low and/or moderate income households, based on RHNA needs.
The AHOZ ordinance also institutes a bifurcated land use entitlement process that allows for streamlined processing for projects that meet specified criteria. AHOZ Sites are shown below, with the current status reflected.
57 of 161
2025 General Plan Annual Progress Report Page 3 March 26, 2026 To date, of the nine AHOZ sites, three have been fully developed as residential (Juliette Walk, Avenue Heights, and Polo Village) and one site is under construction with the Buellton Garden Apartments project. Juliette Walk on Site V was completed in 2009, with 44 to-own condominium units, of which four are affordable to very-low income households and three affordable to low income. Avenue Heights Apartments on Site X, was completed in 2017 with 62 rental apartment units, of which five are affordable to very-low income households, four to low income, and three to moderate income. Polo Village on Site IV was completed in April 2025 and includes 49 rental apartments, of which 15 units are affordable to extremely-low income households, 18 units for very-low income, and 15 units for low income households.
A Preliminary Review of the “Highway 246 Commercial Center” project on Site VII was held in 2024 and the application is pending. Site XI has been developed with the Hampton Inn. The remaining four sites, Sites I, II, III are undeveloped or underdeveloped and are available for development. Based on the historical performance of the AHOZ, the location of each site, and developer interest to date, Site II is expected to be developed with either mixed-use or 100% residential and could accommodate around 375 units. The potential for residential development on AHOZ Sites I and III is more speculative and thus no residential development has been assumed for those sites within the 2023-2031 planning period.
Housing Performance Assessment: In compliance with State reporting requirements, a general accounting of applications submitted, project entitlements, building permits issued, and construction completed during the current Housing Element cycle is set forth in Tables A and A2. During this third year of reporting under the 2023 Housing Element, three ADU applications submitted complete applications with two of those receiving entitlements (land use and grading permits), one ADU application submitted in 2024 received entitlements, two ADUs received building permits, and one ADU completed construction and received final occupancy clearance. The project at 430 & 440 Central Avenue which includes four duplex units and two ADUs received building permits and the Polo Village and Village Senior Apartments projects both completed construction and received final occupancy clearance.
Table B shows progress made towards meeting the City’s RHNA, which includes all units that have been issued building permits in the 2023-2031 cycle. To date, the City has exceeded the allocation of units for very-low and low income households. 55 units are allocated to be affordable to very-low income households and 140 very-low income units to date have received building permits or completed construction; 37 units are allocated to be affordable to low income households and to date, 45 low income units have received building permits or completed construction. 30 units are allocated to be affordable to moderate income households, and 9 moderate units have received building permits or have been constructed, all from ADU development. The City’s Housing Element has determined ADUs to be affordable to moderate income households, and ADUs are therefore counted as moderate income units for RHNA purposes. ADUs have seen a large increase in interest and development since 2020 and are expected to help meet a significant portion of the moderate income allocation. The City’s inclusionary housing requirement is also adjusted annually to reflect the RHNA needs, so that because very58 of 161 2025 General Plan Annual Progress Report Page 4 March 26, 2026 low and low income allocations have been met, future residential development projects would be required to provide more moderate income units. For above-moderate income households, 43 above-moderate/market-rate units were allocated for this cycle. 7 abovemoderate units have been issued building permits or completed construction to date, and pipeline projects, including Creekside Village and The 518, are anticipated to exceed the above-moderate income allocation.
Table C is not applicable this reporting year, and regards Senate Bill 166, the “No Net Loss Law” which became effective January 1, 2019. The bill requires that any action resulting in a parcel being developed with fewer residential units than identified in the current Housing Element would not result in a shortage of adequate sites to accommodate RHNA, or if it would, that additional adequate sites must be identified to make up for that shortfall. This is not expected to occur however, as the City has identified enough adequate sites to accommodate a surplus of 596 units over and above the 2023-2031 RHNA.
The City is in the process of implementing the programs in the adopted 2023 Housing Element, shown in Table D. All programs have either been completed or are in progress.
Tables E through J were not applicable during the 2025 reporting year. Table K reports on local Tenant Preference Policy, which Buellton currently does not have.
Table L on Historical Resources is a new requirement for this reporting year, and the City’s local historic resources have been identified. There are no state or federally designated historic resources in Buellton.
LEAP Reporting: The Annual Progress Report is also required to report on the Local Early Action Planning (LEAP) Grant (see the last table, titled “LEAP Reporting”). The City was awarded $65,000 in funding through this grant on December 17, 2020. Funding has been fully expended and all tasks completed as of 2024 for three tasks: 1) the implementation of a Pre-Designed ADU Plans Program; 2) increasing the City’s capacity to store and share electronic development plan files, and; 3) completion and adoption of the 2023 Housing Element. The Pre-Designed ADU Plans were made publically available in July 2024 and are up on the City’s Engage webpage at https://buellton.civilspace.io/en/projects/buellton-pre-designed-adu-plans. The Planning Department has been utilizing Microsoft OneDrive for storage and sharing capacity of electronic plans and documents and will continue to do so under General Funds as LEAP funds allocated to this line item were spent. Lastly, the 2023 Housing Element Update was adopted and certified in 2023, with the Element’s Housing Plan currently being implemented.

The City will periodically (at least quarterly)
examine available data sources to obtain
current market rents for rental properties
within the region that are reasonably
comparable to typical ADUs within the City.
Based upon this and other available data, an
“average rental price” per square foot in the
community would be determined. This price
would be applied to anticipated average
sizes of ADUs and JADUs built within the
community in order to estimate the
anticipated affordability of these units. The
City has a monitoring program to annually
track ADU and JADU creation, which
provides source data to determine average
unit sizes.
Quarterly 6th Cycle Continuous
Quarterly tracking reports continue to be done on
current market rates with comparable sqaure footage
to ADU/JADUs built in the City. The four reports done
in 2025 showed average monthly rental rates to be

City Council Agenda Staff Report
City Manager Review: SW
Council Agenda Item No.: 9
To: The Honorable Mayor and City Council
From: Shannel Zamora, Finance Director
Meeting Date: March 26, 2026
Subject: Resolution No. 26-06 - “A Resolution of the City Council of the City of Buellton, California, Authorizing the Filing of a Claim with the Santa Barbara County Association of Governments for Allocation of Transportation Development Act Funds for Fiscal Year 2026-27”
BACKGROUND
Resolution No. 26-06 authorizes the filing of a claim with the Santa Barbara County Association of Governments (SBCAG) for the City’s allocation of Transportation Development Act (TDA) funds for Fiscal Year 2026-27. Two funds have been created by the TDA, the Local Transportation Fund (LTF) and the State Transit Assistance Fund (STA). LTF money received by each local government must first be used to fund public transit needs that can be reasonably met. These needs are determined through a public hearing. Buellton’s public hearing was held earlier this year as part of a single meeting of the combined North County Agencies (Attachment 2). At that hearing, it was determined that Buellton’s need for public transit was being met by the Santa Ynez Valley Transit, which is administered by the City of Solvang. In accordance with the Act, we must continue to fund our share of its operation and must also provide funding for regional planning and pedestrian bikeway facilities.
STA funds are generated from the statewide sales tax on motor vehicle fuel.
Funding can only be used for mass transportation and transportation planning purposes. SBCAG advises claimants of FY 2026-27 STA apportionment in the Fall and requests that claimants file a revised TDA claim.
Buellton’s maximum LTF apportionment for Fiscal Year 2026-27 is $283,207.
Amounts for Regional Transportation Planning of $8,326 and for Pedestrian and Bikeway Facilities of $5,564 have been determined by the Santa Barbara County Association of Governments. Therefore, Buellton’s share of TDA funds available for transit for the Fiscal Year is $269,217.
86 of 161
Resolution No. 26-06 Page 2 March 26, 2026
The projected budget for the Santa Ynez Valley Transit system is prepared by the City of Solvang, the administrator of transit operations, and includes the City’s portion of transit service cost based on Buellton’s 32.00 percent share of the ridership (Attachment 3). The amount budgeted as Buellton’s portion for fiscal year 2026-27 is $269,217 which will be released to the City of Solvang.
The TDA claim is as follows:
Regional Transportation Planning: $8,326
Pedestrian and Bikeway Facilities: 5,664
TOTAL TDA CLAIM $13,990
The Local Transportation Fund apportionment will be distributed as follows:
Maximum Apportionment for 2026-27 $283,207
Less Total TDA Claim 13,990
Amount to be released to City of Solvang $269,217
FISCAL IMPACT
The City will receive $283,207 as its maximum apportionment for Fiscal Year 2026-27, $269,217 of which will be paid directly to the City of Solvang for operation of the transit system.
RECOMMENDATION
That the City Council consider adoption of Resolution No. 26-06, “A Resolution of the City Council of the City of Buellton, California, Authorizing the Filing of a Claim with the Santa Barbara County Association of Governments for Allocation of Transportation Development Act Funds for Fiscal Year 2026-27”

STAFF REPORT
Technical Transportation Advisory Committee (TTAC)
MEETING DATE: March 5, 2026
STAFF CONTACT: Maya Kulkarni, SBCAG
SUBJECT: TRANSPORTATION DEVELOPMENT ACT - LOCAL TRANSPORTATION FUND
ATTACHMENTS: Attachment 1: FY 26-27 LTF Initial Apportionment Attachment 2: Summary of Important Dates
RECOMMENDATION:
Recommend that the SBCAG Board approve the Local Transportation Fund apportionments and prepare the required forms to claim the apportionments for fiscal year 2026-27.
DISCUSSION:
Attachment 1 includes the proposed apportionments for the Transportation Development Act Local Transportation Fund (LTF) for the upcoming fiscal year (FY 2026/27). LTF revenues are generated from ¼ cent of the state sales tax collected in our region and are apportioned among local agencies based on population. The recommended apportionments for individual claimants are based on the Department of Finance's population estimates as of January 2025.
Under the California Code of Regulations, Title 21, Section 6620, the County Auditor-Controller is tasked with providing us with an estimate of the ¼ cent sales tax to be generated in a given fiscal year. SBCAG uses the estimate provided by the County Auditor-Controller to apportion these funds each year. For FY 2026/27, the County Auditor has estimated that $25,319,716 in LTF funds will be available for allocation.
LTF revenues can be used for public transit, paratransit, pedestrian and bikeway projects, transportation planning, and, under certain circumstances, for street and road purposes. The estimated apportionments to each jurisdiction and their uses are detailed in Attachment 1. Local agencies must submit claims for these funds using the attached apportionments. A summary of important dates for LTF claimants is also included in Attachment 2.
The TDA manual and associated forms, which you can reference when completing your LTF claim, are on the SBCAG website at Policies & Budget - SBCAG under Other Resources.
Claims must be submitted to Maya Kulkarni at SBCAG no later than April 10, 2026. 102 of 161

CITY OF BUELLTON
City Council Agenda Staff Report
City Manager Review: SW
Council Agenda Item No.: 11
To: The Honorable Mayor and City Council
From: Scott Wolfe, City Manager
Meeting Date: March 26, 2026
Subject: Discussion of City Position on Assembly Bill 1708 ______________________________________________________________________________
BACKGROUND
At the March 12, 2026, meeting, the City Council directed staff to return with an agenda item for the City Council to consider taking a position on Assembly Bill (AB) 1708. AB 1708 would require that our county Continuum of Care allocate Homeless Housing, Assistance, and Prevention (HHAP) funds to smaller jurisdictions (less than 300,000 population). In order to be eligible for such funding, a jurisdiction would need to adopt a resolution, have a compliant Housing Element, and have an adopted local encampment policy. While there is currently no identified need for such funding by the City of Buellton, should a need be identified in the future, the requirement to allocate to smaller jurisdictions as outlined in AB 1708 would enable Buellton to vie for available funds, which absent AB 1708 would likely be allocated to larger jurisdictions.
The League of California Cities is a sponsor of this bill and urges member cities to support it.
Staff seeks direction and – if appropriate – authorization to prepare letters of support to members of the legislature for AB 1708.
RECOMMENDATION
That the City Council discuss this matter and direct staff as appropriate.

February 4, 2026
An act to add Section 50246 to the Health and Safety Code, relating to housing.
legislative counsel’s digest
AB 1708, as introduced, Solache. Homeless Housing, Assistance, and Prevention program: round 7.
Existing law establishes the Homeless Housing, Assistance, and Prevention (HHAP) program for the purpose of providing jurisdictions with grant funds to support regional coordination and expand or develop local capacity to address their immediate homelessness challenges, as specified. Existing law provides for the allocation of funding under the program among continuums of care, cities, counties, and tribes in 6 rounds, with rounds 1 to 5, inclusive, administered by the Interagency Council on Homelessness and round 6 administered by the Department of Housing and Community Development, as provided. Existing law establishes round 7 of the program and states the intent of the Legislature to enact future legislation that specifies the parameters, as specified.
Existing law, effective July 1, 2026, appropriates $500,000,000, as specified, provided that these funds be disbursed in accordance with specified requirements, including that funds from this appropriation be disbursed to a city, county, tribe, or continuum of care for round 7 of the program after a declaration by the director of the department, in consultation with the Director of Finance, that the department has substantially completed its initial disbursement of round 6 funds to the city, county, tribe, or continuum of care and that the city, county, tribe,
99 112 of 161
or continuum of care has obligated at least 50% of its total round 6 award. Existing law requires the department, during the 2025–26 fiscal year, to prepare to administer round 7 of the program with the goal that initial round 7 disbursements will be available to grantees meeting the statutory provisions for disbursement beginning September 1, 2026, as specified.
This bill would require a continuum of care receiving funding pursuant to round 7, as described above, to allocate funds to a smaller jurisdiction, defined as a city with a population under 300,000. The bill would require a smaller jurisdiction, in order to be eligible for funding, to, among other things, adopt a resolution, as specified, have a compliant housing element, and have adopted a local encampment policy, as described.
The bill would require a continuum of care to accept applications for funding in accordance with specified procedures.
Vote: majority. Appropriation: no. Fiscal committee: yes.
State-mandated local program: no.
The people of the State of California do enact as follows:
line 1 SECTION 1. Section 50246 is added to the Health and Safety line 2 Code, to read:
line 3 50246. (a) A continuum of care receiving funding pursuant to line 4 paragraph (2) of subdivision (b) of Section 50245 shall allocate line 5 funds to smaller jurisdictions pursuant to this section. line 6 (b) In order to be eligible to receive funding pursuant to this line 7 section, the smaller jurisdiction shall comply with each of the line 8 following:

line 3 (4) Demonstrate how its past actions, programs, and line 4 appropriation of funds have served the objectives and goals of the line 5 adopted regionally coordinated homelessness action plan and the line 6 intent of the Homeless Housing, Assistance, and Prevention line 7 program to prevent and expeditiously reduce unsheltered line 8 homelessness through homelessness prevention activities. line 9 (c) A continuum of care shall accept applications for funding line 10 in accordance with the following procedure:
line 11 (1) During an initial period of 30 days, for round 7 funding, a line 12 continuum of care shall accept only applications from smaller line 13 jurisdictions determined to be eligible pursuant to subdivision (b). line 14 (2) (A) The continuum of care shall evaluate the applications line 15 submitted pursuant to paragraph (1) and award funds in compliance line 16 with all round 7 rules and regulations.
line 17 (B) The continuum of care shall prioritize applications in which line 18 a smaller jurisdiction agrees to utilize round 7 funding in line 19 partnership with a nonprofit, another smaller jurisdiction, or other line 20 private organization eligible for round 7 funding. line 21 (3) If funding remains after the awards made pursuant to line 22 paragraph (2), the continuum of care shall accept and evaluate line 23 applications from other eligible applicants.

Council Agenda Item No.: 12
To: The Honorable Mayor and City Council
From: Shannel Zamora, Finance Director
Meeting Date: March 26, 2026
Subject: Resolution No. 26-07 – “A Resolution of the City Council of the City of Buellton, California, Regarding Mid-Year Budget Amendments for FY 2025-26”
______________________________________________________________________________
BACKGROUND
The City’s Budget and Fiscal Policies call for a formal financial status report to the Council for every six-month period. The Mid-Year Review meets this requirement and allows the Council to develop an understanding of the City’s financial status at the middle of the fiscal year. Attachment 1 includes a Budget Report for all funds through December 31, 2025.
Staff reviews all budget line items on a monthly basis and compares actual results against budgeted expectations. At Mid-Year, staff conducts an analysis to determine if the original budget is still viable, or if adjustments will be necessary.
This report identifies budget adjustments that have been previously authorized by City Council, or require Council action, and recommendation for supplemental budget adjustments.
General Fund Overview:
The FY 2025-26 General Fund Budget estimates revenues and expenditures at $18,162,265. At the end of the second quarter, actual expenditures exceed revenue by $1,893,603. The City has received 49.29% of its projected operating revenue, while General Fund expenditures, including capital improvement projects, account for 44.19% of the budgeted amount. Tables 1 and 2 on the following pages provide a summary of actual revenues and expenditures compared to budgeted amounts. These figures are preliminary and may be adjusted following the year-end audit.

Table 1 indicates that many General Fund revenue sources have reached or exceeded 50 percent of their projected totals by Mid-Year. The City’s three primary revenue streams, transient occupancy tax (TOT), sales tax, and property tax, have each slightly exceeded their revenue projections.
Franchise Fees are expected to meet budget projections by the end of the year. The City receives annual Franchise Fees from SoCal Gas and PG&E annually during the month of April rather than monthly or quarterly such as Marborg Industries and Comcast.
Charges for Current Services is currently below budget projections. A significant portion of this revenue is generated by the Buellton Recreation Center. Recreation program revenue tends to pick up after the spring when spring and summer camp begins registration.
Revenue is this category is expected to meet budget projections by the end of the fiscal year.
The Revenue from Other Agencies category is also expected to meet budget projections by the end of the fiscal year. There is an outstanding receivable of $673,106 related to property tax in lieu of motor vehicle license fee (MVLF).
Typically, transfers or the use of reserves are allocated for capital improvement projects and one-time expenditures. The proposed budget amendment includes $69,800 from reserves for one-time expenditures and operating and maintenance coara. A draw from reserves will be necessary to fund the increase in appropriations, while ongoing expenditures will be supported in future years through operating surpluses.
Table 2 shows most Departmental expenditures are within 50% of projected expenditures at Mid-Year, with the exception of City Council, City Attorney, Non-Departmental, and the Library.

The City Council department is expected to remain within budget at the end of the fiscal year. Year-to-date (YTD) expenditures exceed 50% of the department’s budget, primarily due to $36,441 in special election-related expenditures which accounts for 20.95% of the expenditures in that department. The City Attorney Department experienced a budget overage due to expenditures related beyond the retainer amount such as services for code enforcement cases. The overage was offset by revenue generated from code enforcement fines.
The Non-Departmental budgetary unit YTD expenditures exceed 50% of the department’s budget, primarily due to one-time annual payments early in the fiscal year. Those annual payments include: Property and liability insurance, Worker’s Compensation Insurance, CalPERS Unfunded Accrued Liability (UAL), support for community organizations and support for the Buellton Senior Center. Other notable expenditures within the NonDepartmental budget include a contribution to the Children's Museum and monthly payments for contract services with the Buellton Visitors Bureau. The Non-Departmental budget is projected to remain within budget by year-end.
The Library Department’s YTD expenditures are nearing budget appropriations. The City of Buellton contracts with the City of Goleta for library services. The annual cost of providing library services is paid as a lump-sum in July causing the Library Department to nearly meet its budget early in the fiscal year. The Library Department is expected to remain within budget at the end of the fiscal year.

Budget Impact: Increase of $10,000 in appropriations.
One-time annual Computer Maintenance and Software costs total approximately $43,300 with monthly recurring costs total approximately $27,100. The increase is primarily due to expanded software licensing, including SentinelOne (from 33 to 47 users) and additional Adobe users, as well as higher-than-anticipated vendor costs.

The proposed amendment to the Internet Access and Website Maintenance budget reflects increased service costs and necessary website-related expenditures. One-time annual costs total approximately $800, and monthly recurring costs total approximately $9,700. The increase is primarily due to higher internet service rates at City Hall and Chambers, resulting in a combined annual increase of approximately $1,400, as well as ongoing website maintenance costs. The revised total of approximately $10,400 exceeds the approved budget by approximately $4,900. This amendment is necessary to maintain reliable internet connectivity and continued website functionality.
Budget Impact: Increase of $4,900 in appropriations.
The proposed amendment to the Non-Departmental electric charges reflects higher-thananticipated utility costs driven by increased usage and recent rate increases from Pacific Gas and Electric Company (PG&E), which have risen approximately 10–20% over the 2024–2026 period.

CITY OF BUELLTON
City Council Agenda Staff Report
City Manager Review: SW
City Council Agenda Item No: 13
To: The Honorable Mayor and City Council
From: Cara Miralles, Associate Planner
Rose Hess, Public Works Director
Meeting Date: March 26, 2026
Subject: Contract for Environmental Permitting for the Willemsen Property Phase II Road Crossing Improvements Project
BACKGROUND
An Initial Study/Mitigated Negative Declaration (IS/MND) was conducted for the Willemsen Property in 2024, which analyzed improvements to the site, including the newly constructed City-owned parking lot on the lower portion in Phase I. Temporary access to the parking lot is via an existing network of interior dirt/gravel driveways from the River View Park east parking lot, which currently serves the existing horseback ride facility.
Phase II anticipated permanent access to the lower parking lot via a new, paved interior driveway from the River View Park east parking lot, which would cross over a small wetland area and drainage stream.
Kevin Merk Associates (KMA) prepared the Biological Resources section of the IS/MND, which anticipated permitting from the Regional Water Quality Control Board (RWQCB) and California Department of Fish & Wildlife (CDFW) for the road crossing. KMA prepared a Preliminary Delineation of Waters of the U.S. and State of California per the CEQA mitigation measures, which made a preliminary determination that the area which would be altered by the road crossing would be under State regulatory authority (RWQCB and CDFW) and meets the criteria for a federally protected wetland in which the U.S. Army Corps of Engineers (USACE) would also have jurisdiction.
To assist Staff with the complex permitting process, KMA has prepared a proposal and draft contract (Attachment 1) to prepare permit applications through the three regulatory agencies along with a Compensatory Mitigation and Monitoring Plan which is a required component for these permits.

KMA Contract Page 2 March 26, 2026
FISCAL IMPACT
The estimated cost is $21,940 for KMA to prepare the Compensatory Mitigation and Monitoring Plan, and prepare permit applications through RWQCB, CDFW, and USACE This includes coordination with Staff and the City’s Contract Engineer. Permit application fees are not included in the KMA proposal and would be paid separately by the City. It does not appear this cost has been budgeted for and a budget adjustment in the amount of $21,940 will need to be prepared.
RECOMMENDATION
That the City Council direct the City Manager to execute the attached contract with Kevin Merk Associates, not to exceed $21,940, and prepare a budget adjustment for this cost.

Subject: Environmental Permitting Proposal for the Willemsen Property Road Improvements Project, Buellton, California
Dear Ms. Miralles:
Kevin Merk Associates, LLC (KMA) is pleased to submit this scope of work and cost estimate to interact with regulatory agencies and work with your team to prepare permit applications for proposed road improvements over an intermittent drainage on the Willemsen Property in Buellton, California. KMA has prepared a jurisdictional delineation report detailing the extent of each regulatory agency’s jurisdiction over the creek corridor that will be used as the basis for the impact assessment and permitting process. We will now initiate preparation of a compensatory mitigation and monitoring plan (CMMP) in support of permit acquisition from the U.S. Army Corps of Engineers (Corps), Regional Water Quality Control Board (RWQCB) and California Department of Fish and Wildlife (CDFW). During preparation of the permit applications, we will work with your engineering and planning team to ensure all required information is provided for agency review and approval. A more detailed description of our work program is outlined below.
SCOPE OF WORK
Task 1 – Prepare Compensatory Mitigation and Monitoring Plan. As a component of the regulatory agencies permitting requirements, impacts to jurisdictional areas must be mitigated to ensure a no net loss of waters of the U.S. and state of California, which will include CDFW jurisdictional areas. We will prepare a stand-alone CMMP that identifies the extent of impacts to jurisdictional areas resulting from the road crossing of the drainage feature and where mitigation will occur. The CMMP will provide the methods and techniques to mitigate these impacts, which are anticipated to include onsite habitat restoration to be approved by each agency. We will work with you and the project team to identify a suitable location for habitat mitigation and finalize engineering plans along the creek corridor, including any design modifications needed to reduce impacts and gain agency approvals.
Task 2 - Clean Water Act Section 404 Nationwide Permit. It is anticipated that the project will qualify for a Corps Section 404 Nationwide Permit (NWP) for impacts to onsite waters of the United States. This scope assumes the project will impact less than 0.5 acre of waters of the U.S. including wetlands, which is the threshold of the Corps’ Nationwide Permitting process. KMA will prepare the application package, including the CMMP detailed above. We will work with your engineering 149 of 161
