ATTACHMENT 1
ORDINANCE NO. 757

AN ORDINANCE OF THE CITY COUNCIL OF THE CITY OF CALISTOGA REPEALING CALISTOGA MUNICIPAL CODE CHAPTERS 15.01 GENERAL PROVISIONS, 15.04 ADMINISTRATIVE CODE, 15.08 CALIFORNIA BUILDING CODE, 15.12 CALIFORNIA RESIDENTIAL CODE, 15.16 CALIFORNIA ELECTRICAL CODE, 15.20 CALIFORNIA MECHANICAL CODE, 15.24 CALIFORNIA PLUMBING CODE, 15.28 CALIFORNIA ENERGY CODE, 15.32 CALIFORNIA HISTORICAL BUILDING CODE, 15.36 CALIFORNIA FIRE CODE, 15.40 CALIFORNIA EXISTING BUILDING CODE, 15.44 CALIFORNIA GREEN BUILDING STANDARDS AND 15.48 CALIFORNIA REFERENCE STANDARDS OF TITLE 15, BUILDING STANDARDS CODES; AND ADOPTING THE 2022 CALIFORNIA BUILDING STANDARDS CODE, TITLE 24, AS ADOPTED BY THE CALIFORNIA STATE BUILDING STANDARDS

COMMISSION, WITH LOCAL AMENDMENTS
WHEREAS, the International Code Council publishes model codes that provide jurisdictions such as the City of Calistoga with a complete set of model building-related regulations for adoption. These model codes are updated approximately every three years to reflect the development of improved building construction techniques; and WHEREAS, in 2022, the California Building Standards Commission completed the adoption and approval of the California Building Standards Codes, commonly referred to as Title 24 of the California Code of Regulations, which are based on these model codes; and
WHEREAS, use of the most up-to-date codes is necessary and proper to ensure uniformity in the implementation of building regulations for new construction, alterations, repairs, demolition, maintenance, and use of any building or structure in the City of Calistoga; and
WHEREAS, the City’s codes were last updated on November 16, 2019, when the City Council approved Ordinance No. 753 adopting the 2019 California Building Standards Code and related family of codes; and
WHEREAS, pursuant to Section 17958 of the California Health and Safety Code, the governing body of the City of Calistoga, in its ordinance adopting the State Building Standards Code and uniform industry codes, may establish amendments which are more restrictive in nature than those regulations adopted by the State, and the City Council, based on materials presented and recommendations of the Building Official, Fire Chief, Planning and Building Director and the Calistoga Building Standards Advisory and Appeals Board, finds that it is necessary to make modifications to the California Building Standards Code and to adopt or not adopt certain State Code appendices in order to best protect the health, safety and welfare of the citizens of Calistoga, based on local climatic, geographical and/or topographical conditions. As such, the City Council finds that the following local conditions exist:

Climate - The city, on average, experiences an approximate annual rainfall of 38 inches. During the winter months, the city may experience periods of heavy rain, which causes local flooding and erosion, and contributes to slope instability. Winter storms are often accompanied by high winds, which uproot trees and damage Item #7.1.

Page 2 of 31 ends

power lines. The city also experiences periodic days of heavy fog, which can delay the response time for fire-fighting apparatus, and prevent the early discovery of structure fires.

Wind is a factor in the spread of fire in that burning embers are carried to adjacent exposed areas. Calistoga has a characteristic southerly wind, which originates from the San Francisco Bay and becomes a factor in the control of fires. Further, in the dry season, Calistoga experiences an occasional north wind of significant velocity, which is recognized by fire officials to be a significant concern with regard to fire spread.

During the dry period, temperatures can exceed 100 degrees. These temperatures are often accompanied by low humidity, creating an extremely- hazardous fire condition. With development spreading into Calistoga’s brush-covered foothill areas, wind-driven fires can have severe consequences, as has been demonstrated on several occasions throughout the state.

Geographical - The city is susceptible to seismic hazards resulting from movement along several known faults. The most serious direct earthquake hazard threat is from the damage or collapse of buildings and other structures due to ground movement. In addition to damage caused by earthquakes, there is a possibility of earthquake-induced landslides. Fire is often the major form of damage resulting from earthquakes. Most earthquake-induced fires start because of damage to gas lines, power lines or heat producing appliances. Such fires expose residential and other development within the city to an increased risk of conflagration. In addition, unstable slopes have been identified in the city, which present a significant potential for landslides. In the event of a major earthquake or landslide, many areas of the city may not be accessible to emergency equipment and, if bridges or roads are damaged, the city may be isolated from outside assistance. Several areas within the city offer poor access for the delivery of public safety services because of the severity of slopes and the existence of natural barriers such as the Napa River and its tributaries such as Garnett Creek and Cyrus Creek.

Topographical - The city’s borders include hilly terrain adjacent to the southwest portions of the city. The roadways in these hills are designed around the lay of the land and consequently are narrow, winding and steep access ways. The grades of these roadways sometimes exceed 25% and road widths of less than 12 feet are not uncommon. The Napa River and other small waterways run directly through the city and could impact emergency response during disasters. The water supply within the city is directly affected by the topographical layout. The water distribution system consists of pressure zones, which carry water by gravity from various reservoirs. Water flow within the city can vary from less than 100 gallons per minute to flows in excess of 1,000 gallons per minute. This wide variation causes major problems to development as well as to fire suppression efforts. The hilly terrain contributes to drainage, erosion and slope instability problems for some development.

In instances where re-inspection Item #7.1.

An investigation fee, in addition to the permit fee, shall be collected whether or not a permit is then or subsequently issued. The investigation fee shall be at least equal to the minimum investigation fee set forth in any adopted fee schedule and shall not exceed five times the permit fee required by this code.

California Code of Regulations Title 24, Part 3: The California Electrical Code, 2022 Edition, as published by National Fire Protection Agency, otherwise identified as the National Electrical Code, 2020 Edition, referred to as the “National Electrical Code” (NEC) is adopted and made a part of this Title by reference.

15.16.020 Electric vehicle charging stations
A. Purpose. The purpose of this section is to promote and encourage the use of electric vehicles by creating an expedited, streamlined permitting process for electric vehicle charging stations while promoting public health and safety and preventing specific adverse impacts in the installation and use of such charging stations. This section is also intended to comply with California Government Code Section 65850.7.

B. Definitions.

For the purposes of this section, the following words and phrases shall be construed as defined in this section:

1. “Electric vehicle charging station” or “charging station” means any level of electric vehicle supply equipment station that is designed and built in compliance with Article 625 of the California Electrical Code, as it reads on the effective date of this section, and delivers electricity from a source outside an electric vehicle into a plug-in electric vehicle.

2. “Specific, adverse impact” means a significant, quantifiable, direct, and unavoidable impact, based on objective, identified, and written public health or safety standards, policies, or conditions as they existed on the date the application was deemed complete.

3. “Electronic submittal” means the utilization of one or more of the following:
a. Electronic mail or email.
b. The internet.
c. Facsimile.

C. Expedited Plan Check. Consistent with Government Code Section 65850.7, the Building Official shall implement an expedited, streamlined permitting process for electric vehicle charging stations, and adopt a checklist of all requirements with which electric vehicle charging stations shall comply with in order to be eligible for expedited review. The expedited, streamlined permitting process and checklist Item #7.1.

may refer to the recommendations contained in the most current version of the “Plug-In Electric Vehicle Infrastructure Permitting Checklist” of the “Zero-Emission Vehicles in California: Community Readiness Guidebook” as published by the Governor’s Office of Planning and Research. The City’s adopted checklist shall be published on the City’s website.

D. Permit Application Processing.

1. Prior to submitting an application for processing, the applicant shall verify that the installation of an electric vehicle charging station will not have specific, adverse impact to public health and safety and building occupants.

Verification by the applicant includes but is not limited to: electrical system capacity and loads; electrical system wiring, bonding and overcurrent protection; building infrastructure affected by charging station equipment and associated conduits; areas of charging station equipment and vehicle parking.

2. A permit application that satisfies the information requirements in the City’s adopted checklist shall be deemed complete and be promptly processed.

Upon confirmation by the Building Official that the permit application and supporting documents meets the requirements of the City-adopted checklist, and is consistent with all applicable laws and health and safety standards, the Building Official shall, consistent with Government Code Section 65850.7, approve the application and issue all necessary permits.

Such approval does not authorize an applicant to energize or utilize the electric vehicle charging station until the associated building permit is finaled by the City. If the Building Official determines that the permit application is incomplete, they shall issue a written correction notice to the applicant, detailing all deficiencies in the application and any additional information required to be eligible for expedited permit issuance.

3. Consistent with Government Code Section 65850.7, the Building Official shall allow for electronic submittal of permit applications covered by this section and associated supporting documentations. In accepting such permit applications, the Building Official shall also accept electronic signatures on all forms, applications, and other documentation in lieu of a wet signature by any applicant.

E. Technical Review.

1. It is the intent of this section to encourage the installation of electric vehicle charging stations by removing obstacles to permitting for charging stations so long as the action does not supersede the Building Official’s authority to address higher priority life-safety situations. If the Building Official makes a finding based on substantial evidence that the electric vehicle charging station could have a specific adverse impact upon the public health or safety, as defined in this section, the City may require the applicant to obtain approval of a use permit pursuant to Chapter 17.40.

California Code Section 66006(b) requires the local agency for each separate account or fund, within 180 days after the last day of the fiscal year to make available to the public the following information for the fiscal year:
 A brief description of the type of the fee in the account or fund  The amount of the fee
 The beginning and ending balance of the account or fund  The amount of the fees collected, and interest earned  The amount of the expenditures on each improvement
 The amount of any interfund transfers or loans made, and in the case of an interfund loan, the date on which the loan will be repaid, and the rate of interest that the account or fund will receive on the loan.

California Government Code Section 66001(d) requires the local agency to file the report every fifth year with respect to the portion of the account remaining unexpended, whether committed or uncommitted.

If the agency no longer needs the funds for the purposes collected, or if the agency fails to make required findings, or perform certain administrative tasks prescribed by AB 1600, the agency may be required to refund, on a prorated basis to owners of the properties upon which the fees for the improvement were imposed, the monies collected for that project and any interest earned on those funds.

The report must be reviewed by the City Council at a regularly scheduled public meeting not less than 15 days after the information is made available to the public. In addition, notice of the time and place of the meeting shall be mailed at least 15 days prior to the meeting to any interest party who files a written request with the local agency for such a mailed notice. This report was filed with the City Clerk’s office and available for public review on December 6, 2022 and posted on the City’s Web page on December 6, 2022.

1 ANALYSIS:

Development impact fees are charged by a local governmental agency to an applicant in connection with approval of a development project. The purpose of these fees is to defray all or a portion of the cost of public facilities related to the development project.

The legal requirements for enactment of a development impact fee program are set forth in Government Code Section 66000-66025 (the Mitigation Fee Act”), the bulk of which was adopted as 1987’s AB 1600 and thus commonly referred to as “AB 1600 requirements.”
Development fees were adopted 15-20 years ago and were updated to reflect the current costs of public facilities and equipment as well as affordable housing through Ordinance Nos. 704 and 705 in December 2014.

Fees are collected at the time a building permit is issued for the purpose of mitigating the impacts caused by new development on certain public facilities. Facility fees are used to finance the acquisition, construction and improvement of public facilities needed as a result of this new development. A separate fund has been established to account for the impact of new development on each of the following types of public facilities:
administrative facilities, fire, police, transportation, affordable housing, cultural/recreation, traffic signal, northwest drainage, water and wastewater.

As of June 30, 2021, none of the funds have been held beyond the five-year period as described in AB 1600 and their continued collection is necessary to address the impacts associated with new development.

AB 1600 DESCRIPTION OF DEVELOPMENT FEES
The AB 1600 Development Fee is used only for the construction and the expansion of infrastructure to accommodate growth, not for operating or maintenance costs. Revenue will be used to maintain infrastructure standards for nine capital types in no order of importance:
• City Administrative Facilities
• Fire
• Police
• Transportation
• Affordable Housing
• Cultural/Recreational
• Traffic Signal
• Northwest Drainage
• Water Capacity Charge
• Wastewater Capacity Charge
City Administrative Facilities AB 1600 development fees cover new development’s share of the costs associated with a new City Hall and Community Center facility, including land acquisition.

Item #7.2.

Page 43 of 237 ends

2 Fire AB 1600 development fees cover new development’s share of the costs associated with the replacement of capital equipment and vehicles. Capital items will depreciate more quickly as new development occurs and the City’s service population grows.

Police AB 1600 development fees cover new development’s share of the costs associated with the replacement of capital equipment and vehicles. Capital items will depreciate more quickly as new development occurs and the City’s service population grows.

Affordable Housing AB 1600 development fees cover new development’s share of the costs associated with construction and preservation of affordable to very low-, low- and moderate-income households.

Cultural/Recreational AB 1600 development fees are designed to cover the costs associated with new parks and recreation facilities required to serve future growth in Calistoga.

Transportation AB 1600 development fees cover new development’s share of the costs associated with providing infrastructure improvements necessary to accommodate the increase in traffic and bicycle-associated improvements associated with new development.

Traffic Signal AB 1600 development fees will cover future signal and intersection improvements. This fee is no longer collected separately, and the identified signal improvements have been incorporated into the Transportation Fee. Funds collected under this impact fee will be used to facilitate the construction of the traffic signal at the intersection of Foothill Boulevard and Petrified Forest Road. Once the fees collected have been expended this impact fee account will be closed.

Northwest Drainage AB 1600 development fees are used to fund the design and construction of drainage infrastructure improvements to mitigate the impact of new development.

Water Capacity fees are used to fund the design and construction of water supply, water treatment and distribution system infrastructure improvements to cover costs associated with new development.

Wastewater Capacity fees are used to fund the design and construction of wastewater treatment, collection and disposal infrastructure improvements to cover costs associated with new development

City of Calistoga

STAFF REPORT
To: Honorable Mayor and City Council
From: Marc Fox, Acting Administrative Services Director Meeting: City Council - Dec 06 2022
Subject: Approving Amendments to the Temporary Employees Salary Schedule, Unrepresented Management Employees Salary and Benefits Schedule, and Executive Management Employees Salary and Benefits Schedule.

DESCRIPTION:

Consider adopting a Resolution that amends salary and benefits schedules by incorporating January 1, 2023 California minimum wage changes and approving salary and benefit changes to unrepresented employees.

RECOMMENDATION:

Adopt a Resolution approving an amendment to the Temporary Employee Salary Schedule, Unrepresented Management Employees Salary and Benefits Schedule, and Executive Management Employees Salary and Benefits Schedule.

BACKGROUND/SUMMARY:

The City’s temporary employees, management employees and executive management employees are not represented by a recognized labor association and do not negotiate for a collective bargaining agreement. These employees consist of part-time employees in a variety of departments (e.g., summer recreation staff, part-time dispatchers, part-time fire fighters), mid-management and department directors.

The recommended changes are:

Wages
The California minimum wage increases from $15.00 to $15.50 per hour effective January 1, 2023.

Classifications whose entry pay is at the minimum wage will increase to $15.50 per hour with a corresponding increase to the other wage steps.

The Police Officer Trainee is a training classification used when the City sponsors an employee at the police academy. Because the employee has not graduated from a police academy, the individual does not yet meet the minimum qualifications of Police Officer. Similarly, the Operator-in-Training is a training classification used while the City trains an employee to meet the minimum qualifications of Plant Operator I. The proposed wage for both Police Officer Trainee and Operator-in-Training replaces the fixed hourly pay rate with the narrative that the pay is set at 20% below the entry wage of the fully trained classifications, thereby maintaining a consistent differential between the trainee and full-time positions.

Item #7.3.

Page 48 of 237 ends

Local inflation as measured by the San Francisco-Oakland-Hayward Consumer Price Index (CPI) for all urban consumers for the twelve months ending October 2022 is six percent (6%). The January 2023 wage increase for the remaining classifications is six percent (6%). Effective for both January 2024 and January 2025, the wage increase will be based on the same CPI scale, with the minimum City increase of two percent (2%) and the maximum City increase of four percent (4%).

Additionally, based on review of the City’s comparative cities, an adjustment is made for both the Maintenance Superintendent and the Utilities Systems Superintendent.

There is a $1,000 lump sum payment for mid-management and executive management employees.

This lump sum payment, consistent with the authorization provided for collective bargaining with the City’s represented employees, is in recognition of the City’s enactment of salary and benefit changes prior to December 31st. There is also an additional lump sum payment to the Fire Chief.

Benefits
The City’s Share the Savings program provides a financial incentive to an employee who waives participation in the City’s health insurance because the employee documents coverage elsewhere (e.g., coverage through a spouse). As example, the City’s cost for Kaiser health insurance, employee only, is $822.37 per month. The Share the Savings incentive will increase from $300 to $400 per month beginning January 2023.

The City’s automobile allowance, provided in recognition that a department director uses his/her personal vehicle in lieu of a City vehicle, increases by $50 per month in January 2023 and in January 2024.

The City’s mid-management employees presently do not have a technology allowance. This allowance is for use of the employee’s personal internet, laptop and cellphone services to conduct City business. Beginning January 2023, a $100 per month allowance is provided to these employees.

The City provides Administrative Leave to each management employee. Administrative Leave is in recognition that a manager’s responsibilities occasionally require work in excess of the normal forty (40) hour work week and that management employees are exempt from overtime requirements under the Fair Labor Standards Act (FLSA). Receipt of the Administrative Leave is in lieu of any payment or compensatory time off for work performed in excess of forty (40) hours per week. Beginning January 2023, the yearly allotment of eighty (80) hours is provided in January (and no longer half in January and half in July) and clarifies that each mid-management employee receives eighty (80) hours. Department directors are paid out unused Administrative Leave hours at the end of the calendar year.

CEQA STATUS:

None.

FINANCIAL IMPACT:

The fiscal impact of these changes is projected to increase General Fund costs in FY 2022/23 by $122,47976, in FY 2023/24 by $285,800, and in FY 2024/25 by $419,679. Costs for the current fiscal year will be reviewed as part of any mid-year budget adjustments and staff currently anticipates there are sufficient financial resources to cover the fiscal impact. Costs in future fiscal years will be incorporated in the proposed budgets.

2.3 Pay for New or Rehired Employees
An Appointing Authority may appoint a new employee in a Covered Position at any salary step within the employee’s classification; however, any placement above the second salary step requires the City Manager’s approval.

2.4 Pay Upon Promotion
An employee promoted to a Covered Position receives the closest salary step within the employee’s (new) classification which provides at least a five percent (5%) over his/her current (pre-promotion) classification but not exceeding the maximum amount of the promoted classification. The City Manager may, however, grant a promotion salary step that is greater than which is prescribed in this section.

2.5 Pay Upon Demotion
An employee demoted to a Covered Position having a salary range lower than the class or position from which he/she was demoted from shall receive the highest salary step in the new classification which provides a minimum five percent (5%) reduction, but not less than the minimum nor exceeding the maximum of the demoted classification.

2.6 Pay Upon Reclassification
A. If the position is reclassified to a classification with the same salary range, the salary and merit increase eligibility date will not change.

B. If the position is reclassified to a classification with a higher salary range, the reclassification will be considered to be a promotion.

C. If the position is reclassified to a classification with a lower salary range, the reclassification will be considered to be a demotion.

2.7 Merit Increases
A Covered Position shall be considered for a merit increases annually, to be effective, initially, effective the beginning of the pay period closest to the employee’s hire date, and then annually thereafter.

Completion of “x” years of Calistoga Service Percentage of Annualized Base Pay 5 years 1.5%
10 years 2.0%
15 years 2.0%
20 years 2.5%
25 year, and each 5 years thereafter 2.5%
Service Longevity Pay shall be paid by the City to the employee on the paycheck closest to the hire date anniversary with the City.

2.9 Working Out of Class
An employee in a Covered Position working in an out-of-class assignment for more than three (3) consecutive days receives an increase of ten percent (10%) within the employee’s current salary range. Benefits of the higher classification are not available, and the employee will continue to receive the benefits of the employee’s assigned (i.e., not working out of class) classification.

3. Benefits

3.1 Medical Benefits

ATTACHMENT TO GLEAZER 2022 GC APPLICATION
RE: City of Calistoga, Application for City Green Committee State specifically why you wish to serve ....

Having completed one tenn on the Green Committee, I wish to continue to work with the Committee to advance the effort to minimize negative impacts on the environment and promote a positive social impact for our community. Credible environmental agencies and scientific organizations have made clear that we are facing a world-wide change in our climate likely to be detrimental to all of us and future generations if we do not act. No town is too small to do its part. No person, I believe, is exempt from the responsibility to act if they know their actions can help slow this crisis.

I served two years on the City's Active Transportation Committee because I believed that improving the City's infrastructure to promote safe, active activities, such as walking and bicycling, could benefit the overall health of our town's residents, including school age youth, and reduce dependence on the use of cars, major sources of pollution.

I continue to believe that our city has the potential to reduce our dependence on gasoline consuming vehicles and equipment and promote healthier lifestyles. We are fortunate to have an attractive town conducive to active mobility, and a reputation as a destination for relaxing and healthy activities with our spas, massage and mineral baths. A "greener" Calistoga can only enhance the value Calistoga has for its residents and visitors alike.

By serving on the Green Committee it will be my privilege to help promote a cleaner environment and enable the city to do its part, however small, in meeting the challenge of climate change.

I believe in keeping Calistoga a place where All people can afford to live. I am in favor of supporting development projects, be they subdivisions or infill buildings that are more than large single family homes that are unaffordable for the majority of our residents. I believe in encouraging developers to be creative in helping to solve the needs of our local businesses by including work-force housing as part of any large project.

I love the fact that Calistoga is still a blue collar town and I want it kept that way. I have more than 40 years experience running a mid sized manufacturing business along with commercial real estate development and management. I like to think of myself as a pragmatic person who can balance ideals with realty.

To Whom It May Concern:

I wish to continue to serve on the City Housing Advisory Committee because Calistoga is in desperate need of housing. Not only low income housing, but middle income housing as well.

Calistoga is growing - and that is a great thing! Along with the economic growth of introducing new resorts, we need to support the town with housing growth to provide these new businesses, and existing businesses, with places for their staff to live.

I believe I am qualified to continue to serve on the City Housing Advisory Committee because I have seen this town grow from a tiny town at the tip of Napa Valley, to a worldwide destination.

I have spent the past 18 months on the committee working closely with the other committee members and the Planning and Building Director on numerous projects, such as the Housing and Community Development Matrix, Housing Advisory Committee Goals and Objectives, and M Group lot reviews. The numbers of wineries, restaurants and resorts have grown exponentially, but in my 30 years of living here, I have not witnessed a large increase in housing options. I have experienced the housing shortage in Calistoga first hand, alongside many of my friends and coworkers. This Housing Committee needs members who have experienced the challenges of housing in this community, not just heard of them.

If re-appointed to the Housing Committee Board, I will continue to contribute extensive knowledge of Calistoga, unmet dedication to the betterment of this community, and an immeasurable amount of passion and care for the position. I don't want to see Calistoga turn into Napa or Sonoma, I want Calistoga to stay Calistoga, just with a few more housing options. I will continue to work tirelessly to do all that I can to ensure Calistoga gets a fighting chance at fair and affordable housing options.

Thank you for your time,

City of Calistoga

STAFF REPORT
To: Honorable Mayor and City Council
From: Jeff Mitchem, Planning & Building Director
Meeting: City Council - Dec 06 2022
Subject: Uncodified Ordinance: Relinquishing Enforcement Responsibility for Mobile Home Parks and Installations and Special Occupancy Parks DESCRIPTION:

Consideration of proposed uncodified ordinance canceling the City of Calistoga’s enforcement responsibility for mobile home parks (MHP) and installations and special occupancy parks under the California Health and Safety Code.

RECOMMENDATION:

Introduce the attached draft Ordinance and waive its first reading.

BACKGROUND/SUMMARY:

On May 21, 1991, the Calistoga City Council adopted its Resolution No. 91-32 declaring its intention to enforce mobile home park provisions of the California Health and Safety Code. Within recent years, City Staff resources have reduced to below satisfactory levels with respect to technical capacity to meet increasing demand for MHP inspections and enforcement.

California Government Code Section 18865 authorizes the City to relinquish enforcement responsibility for MHP and installations and special occupancy parks and transfer such responsibility back to the California Department of Housing and Community Development (“HCD”). Acknowledging limited City Staff resource and expertise, Calistoga City Council concludes that it is in the best interests of the City and its residents to transfer MHP park enforcement authority back to HCD.

The purpose of the attached Ordinance (Attachment 1) is to repeal the City’s enforcement responsibility for MHPs and installations and special occupancy parks pursuant to Health and Safety Code Section 18865 and Title 25 of the California Code of Regulations Section 2005 and the City Manager is authorized and directed to take additional action as necessary to transfer enforcement responsibility to HCD.

Upon adoption of the attached Ordinance, City will transmit written notification (Attachment 2) transferring City enforcement to the California State Department of Housing and Community Development (HCD). Subsequent to the written notification and prior to the effective date of transference, City will transmit 1) all fees collected for annual permits to operate in an amount equal to the percentage of the year remaining before the permits to operate expire, and 2) all MHP records.

City staff contacted all MHP owners and on-site managers and received unanimous support for City transference of enforcement authority to the State.

Item #7.5.

Page 111 of 237 ends

CONSISTENCY WITH CITY COUNCIL GOALS AND OBJECTIVES:

This action would be broadly consistent with Council Goal 5: Offer excellent professional services to all customers. Specifically, it would be in furtherance of Priority Project 5.1 Research and implement various opportunities for outside service agencies or private companies to provide routine city functions in order to free City staff for higher-level activities and special projects and reduce the need for additional employees.

CEQA STATUS:

This activity is not considered a "project" under CEQA because it will not cause a direct or reasonably foreseeable indirect physical change in the environment.

FINANCIAL IMPACT:

The immediate direct impacts related to this proposed ordinance are the loss of approximately $16,000 in annual fees including operation permits ($4,500), inspection fees ($2,500) and rent stabilization fees ($9,000).

Subject: RE: Mobile Home Park Owners
Hi Lauren,
Douglas Hood
On behalf of Rancho De catistoga and Chateau Calistoga we unanimously support the motion to have HCD ( the state of CA) take back over as the enforcing agency of T-25 Health and Safety Code for MHP's.

Rancho De Calistoga has been required to seek legal counsel time and time again due to the city's confusion regarding how to interpret and enforce T-25.

Our most recent example is a dispute of the parks fictitious lot lines between residents monthly leased spaces within our park. Rancho De Calistoga is 1 parcel per the Napa county assessor's office and the city inspector demanded that Item #7.5.

Page 116 of 237 ends

we have the entire park and all 184 spaces surveyed which is an impossible order being that it is documented as one parcel. Not only was this request found nowhere in the MH code {T-25/or the MH parks Act) but the Inspector then proceeded to threaten us with daily fines if we did not meet these demands. This went·back and forth for several months and we were forced to get our legal team involved to articulate our compliance. For this one single matter we have spent close to $40,000 to help interpret and articulate T-25 MH code and our compliance for the purpose of the City so that they could make a decision as the enforcing agency. This consisted of Attorneys, survey companies, and HCD consultants. After this costly venture and nearly a year long exercise the city's decision was to take "no action." We have spent a year on this and were forced to gather all this information on your behalf so that you could do your job and make a decision and now you decided to make "no decision" This is an abuse of power and a complete disregard for a local community business. California MH park code enforced in Calistoga needs to be performed the same way it is done throughout the state. If you're not going to make decisions in the park then please do your job and make a decisions tonight.

Respectfully.

STAFF REPORT
To: Honorable Mayor and City Council
From: Jeff Mitchem, Planning & Building Director
Meeting: City Council - Dec 06 2022
Subject: Consultant Services Agreement Kortum Ranch – CEQA Environmental Impact Report (EIR)
DESCRIPTION:

Consider adopting a Resolution authorizing the City Manager to execute a Consultant Services Agreement with M-Group to prepare an EIR for the Kortum Ranch project as part of the CEQA analysis.

RECOMMENDATION:

Adopt the attached Resolution.

BACKGROUND/SUMMARY:

M-Group has been selected to provide environmental review consulting services to prepare an Environmental Impact Report for the proposed Kortum Ranch project. The Kortum Ranch proposal is to subdivide an approximately 50-acre site consisting of four (4) legal parcels comprising Assessor’s Parcel Numbers (APNs) 011-290-007, 011-290-038, 011-290-039, and 011-310-023, located at 500 Kortum Canyon Road, south of Foothill Boulevard (SR 128), in the City of Calistoga (Site) into 23 individual lots to be developed with single-family detached residences (“Kortum Ranch Development”).

In December of 2020, the Applicant purchased the Busk Estate, an approximate 50-acre site consisting of 4 legal parcels straddling Kortum Canyon Road south of Foothill Blvd and improvements located within the City of Calistoga. The Busk Estate has since been renamed Kortum Ranch.

Staff and the Applicant recognize that the analysis of the currently proposed project may or may not be consistent with the analysis and findings of the 2003 General Plan EIR. Inconsistencies could arise based on (1) the attributes of the current proposal, (2) changes in the existing project setting, and/or (3) currently accepted criteria of significance. Such matters must be substantiated and reflected in the actual analysis and in the form of the environmental document, in accordance with processes set forth in CEQA. The foregoing notwithstanding, during the Planning and Building Department’s conceptual review of the Kortum Ranch Development proposal, in August of this year, several areas of potentially significant environmental effects were identified, including Transportation/Circulation, including vehicle miles traveled (VMT); and Wildfire. The following supplement information and special studies have been prepared on behalf of the Applicant’s team and consultants, and have been provided to the M-Group for use in preparing the EIR:

Phase I Environmental Site Assessment
• Arborist Report
Item #7.6.

Page 118 of 237 ends

• Visual Analysis
• Wildfire Risk Management and Evacuation Plan
Additionally, the following special studies are to be prepared by the selected consultant or their subconsultant for use in preparing the EIR:
• Water and Wastewater Capacity Study
• Biological Resources Assessment
• Traffic Impact Study
• Air Quality, Greenhouse Gas, and Health Risk Assessment • Noise and Vibration Analysis
On September 16, 2022 City Staff issued a Request for Proposals (RFP) for the EIR and selected MGroup’s proposal. Staff recommends that the City Council authorize the City Manager to execute a contract with M-Group, for an amount not-to-exceed $205,540, to complete the services.

CEQA STATUS:

CEQA compliance through preparation of subject Environmental Impact Report.

FINANCIAL IMPACT:

Compensation shall be $205,540 (Exhibit B of Attachment 2) will be paid for by the developer through an existing Developer Deposit Account.
