Attachment: Public Requests for Safe Gun Storage Ordinance (Safe Gun Storage Ordinance Petition)
Pass Local Responsible Firearm Storage Laws in California People legally prohibited from having guns, people at risk of firearm suicide and children routinely gain access to firearms because those firearms are not stored in a secure and responsible manner. Whether the guns are taken from family or friends or stolen from strangers, much of the violence caused by unauthorized access to firearms can be prevented.
California has taken steps to address this by requiring people to responsibly store their firearms to prevent access by children and to keep guns out of the hands of prohibited persons. Localities can further encourage a culture of responsible gun storage by passing local responsible storage laws.
INTRODUCTION
Whether a result of children or other family members or friends getting access to firearms or others stealing them, unauthorized access to firearms is a major source of today’s gun violence.
An estimated 4.6 million American children live in households with at least one loaded, unlocked firearm.1 Every year, hundreds of American children gain access to firearms and unintentionally shoot themselves or someone else.2
Estimates suggest that between 200,000 and 500,000 guns are stolen from individuals each year.3 Access to a firearm also increases the risk of death by suicide. This elevated suicide risk applies not only to gun owners, but to all people in the household.4 In the case of children dying by firearm suicide, over 80 percent use a gun belonging to a family member.5
In up to 80 percent of incidents of gun violence on school grounds, shooters obtain their guns from their own home, a relative’s home or from friends.6
In all of these cases, these risks could be averted through simple steps by gun owners to secure their firearms in order to prevent unauthorized access.
KEY FINDINGS
States that enacted responsible firearm storage laws have seen reductions in firearm suicide rates and unintentional firearm death rates in children.7
Responsible firearm storage practices are associated with reductions in the risk of self-inflicted and unintentional firearm injuries among children and teens—up to 85 percent depending on the type of storage practice.8 Gun owners are significantly less likely to have a gun stolen if they store all of their guns locked and unloaded,9 yet more than half of gun owners do not store all of their guns responsibly.10 Nineteen states – including California - have some form of responsible firearm storage law.11 Over a dozen California cities, including San Francisco, Los Angeles, Oakland, and San Jose have also adopted responsible firearm storage ordinances.12
California’s statewide responsible storage law generally requires persons to store firearms responsibly in order to prevent access by persons legally prohibited from having guns and by children.13
RECOMMENDATIONS
Municipalities in California can pass local responsible storage ordinances that build upon current state law. These laws will give local officials another important tool to help prevent unauthorized access to firearms. Localities should also seek ways to build public awareness about responsible firearm storage.

Attachment: Public Requests for Safe Gun Storage Ordinance (Safe Gun Storage Ordinance Petition) Dear City Manager Brian Loventhal and Campbell City Council Members,
Thank you for everything you do to keep Campbell safe for everyone. We are volunteer members of the Silicon Valley Alliance for Gun Safety, a non-partisan, grassroots organization of both gun owners and non-gun owners, who share the goal of reducing gun violence and promoting gun safety for everyone. We believe the 2nd Amendment can be respected, while simultaneously better protecting people through common sense gun legislation. Our members represent the Brady Campaign, Community Interfaith Voice, Everytown’s Moms Demand Action, Indivisible, Safe Cities Coalition, and Scrubs Addressing the Firearm Epidemic.
We respectfully request that Campbell adopt a Safe Storage Ordinance that requires all firearms in a residence to be securely stored in a locked container or disabled with a trigger lock. The majority of all the towns and cities in Santa Clara County have now adopted safe storage and we hope Campbell will do the same. We would be happy to produce a list of local communities that have passed safe storage ordinances as well as a copy of the ordinance passed by Santa Clara County which includes a civil penalty rather than a criminal penalty.
.
Here are the facts:
• One small child dies every day in this country after finding an unsecured firearm in their own home or in a relative’s home or while playing at a friend’s house. • Two older children, particularly teens, die every day in this country by suicide from an unsecured firearm they obtain from their home or another family member’s home.
• In addition, 80% of school mass shootings are done by current or former students, using an unsecured firearm obtained from their own home or a relative’s home.
• Research shows that keeping guns securely stored does NOT hinder self- protection- a gun can be accessed within seconds- but it DOES prevent unintentional deaths of children and teen suicides, by as much as 85% depending on the type of storage.
• Storing firearms in a securely locked container can also prevent guns from being easily stolen in a home robbery. A DOJ- approved safe can be obtained for as little as $40 so the cost is not prohibitive, and trigger locks are often given out free at police stations.
While The California Penal Code (25100) addresses child access to firearms, it doesn’t go far enough. It does not define how to safely store a firearm and it doesn’t apply to all homes. For example, parents often hide their guns rather than locking them up, but studies show 70% of children know the location of these hidden guns in their own home and many have even handled them. In addition, gun owners who do not safely store their guns are significantly more likely to have their guns stolen. Data suggests that
1.a
Packet Pg. 19
Attachment: Public Requests for Safe Gun Storage Ordinance (Safe Gun Storage Ordinance Petition) approximately 380,000 guns are stolen from individual gun owners each year. Finally, those who store their guns safely were less likely to die by suicide.
We are happy to provide you with any additional information or answer any questions you may have. Please refer this communication to staff, so a secure storage ordinance can be placed on a future agenda as soon as possible.
Sincerely,
Sharon Genkin (former principal of Lynhaven School, CUSD) Kelly Traver (retired physician)

1. Campbell's Plan for Housing - Housing Opportunity Sites Selection (PLN - 2021-12)
Recommended Action: That the City Council review the Tier 1 Housing Opportunity Sites and provide direction to staff on which sites should be included in Campbell’s Plan for Housing and the City’s Envision Campbell General Plan Update and provide feedback on key p rincipals to guide which Housing Opportunity Sites should be designated for mixed-use development.
Community Development Director Rob Eastwood introduced the Staff Re port dated January 25, 2022 noting that tonight’s session is for Council to provide feedback on key principles relating to mixed -use sites, and for any final comments prior to Staff moving into the Environmental Impact Report (EIR) phase of the Housing Ele ment. Director Eastwood noted the goal is to start as broad as possible with the number of sites studied as part of the EIR process and there will be sites that are not ultimately qualified to be included as part of the Housing Element, and so by starting with the broadest number possible will provide the City a buffer as sites are ultimately eliminated from the list. In order to 2 Packet Pg. 28

Minutes of January 25, 2022 City Council Meeting Page 2 complete the Housing Element on time, it is not possible to add sites during the EIR process.
David Hogan, M -Group Representati ve, reviewed the feedback received from both the Planning Commission and the City Council, reviewed the public outreach completed to date, and the site selection ranking utilized by Staff. Mr.
Hogan noted that those sites indicated as Tier 1 sites are incl uded in the maps presented to Council and will be included in the EIR process for review. These sites total over 5,000 to begin the EIR review. Mr. Hogan reviewed the draft maps, noting the Tier 2 sites and those remaining from the 5 th Regional Housing Needs Assessment (RHNA) Cycle that are not being included in the 6th Cycle.
Director Eastwood noted that the Campbell Technology Park has some unique challenges relating to ingress/egress and may have development limitations through 2030 as this site was originally a Redevelopment Agency project, however the property owners have shown a strong interest in developing housing on this site or doing a land swap with the City for the Corporation Yard location.
Staff is recommending including the Campbell Technology Park in the EIR. Staff is also recommending studying the current Corporation Yard as a ho using site noting the need to move t he facility should that be deemed a feasible site. This site provides a unique opportunity to provide higher density housing and a more affordable housing project given it is on City land, and it is in close proximity to other higher density housing. Staff is also recommending keeping the First Street Parking Garage site on the list, noting the parking challenges and the existing parking agreements that would need to be investigated on this site. Director Eastwood noted t hat the City of Campbell’s RHNA targ et is 3,300 including a 30% buffer, and by utilizing the ranking system identified, Staff has identified over 5,000 sites that are planned to be studied in the EIR. This will allow the City flexibility to drop some sites that are deemed infeasible, or thro ugh other factors during the eight-year RHNA cycle, and still meet the required number of housing units.
Director Eastwood noted that since City Council’s last meeting in December 2021, Staff has received requests from p roperty owners to drop 283 sites fro m consideration and add 112 sites to the list. Staff is recommending that all Tier 1 sites requested to be dropped remain on the site list to study and that all Tier 1 sites asked to be added to the list be added for stu dy. This again will provide the City the greatest flexibility during the EIR process and for the best outcomes throughout the RHNA Cycle.
In response to inquiries, Director Eastwood noted that these maps do not provide for any additional open space and tha t Staff would need to return at a la ter date for Council to consider adjusting the park to unit ratio across the City. Director Eastwood clarified that the 3,300 target number already takes into account any projects currently in the pipeline and projection s of potential Accessory Dwelling Unit (ADU) production.

Minutes Acceptance: Minutes of Jan 25, 2022 6:30 PM (CONSENT CALENDAR)
Minutes of January 25, 2022 City Council Meeting Page 3 Director Eastwood clarified that following the completion of the EIR, Council will formally identify the 3,300 sites to be certified with Housing & Community Development (HCD) and when each project comes forward, the site will again be required to go through an individual analysis.
In response to inquiries, Director Eastwood noted that Staff is recommending removing Tier 2 sites from study because they have been in previous RHNA cycles without ever be ing developed, the parcel is too sma ll, there is very little common ownership, or they didn’t meet the other criteria developed to identify the most potentially fruitful sites. Director Eastwood clarified that this evening is about site selection, and that additional conversations will be ha d with Council throughout 2022 in relation to the tools and strategies the City can use to meet affordability targets.
Senior Planner Stephen Rose presented the four key principles for Council to consider for mixed -use d evelopment and noted that mixed -use can pose challenges for development. Staff is recommending they be used in higher density parcels, on larger sites, for pedestrian oriented projects, and in places where it could help offset other services. Staff feels a mixed-use project could be most hel pful in the Pruneyard area, the Fry’s Electronic site, and the walkable area between Campbell Avenue and the Pruneyard. The Planning Commission has requested this to include the major arterial corridors and the Milk Farm Dairy site in the southwest area of the City. Staff is seeking feedback from Council on whether mixed-use should be deemed mandatory in some areas or if having an option for mixed-use is preferable.
Senior Planner Rose presented a chart depicting the pote ntial height of a building/development among other factors and spoke of the methods and tools available to help keep the height of a building to the 75 ft. limit for the City of Campbell but noted that there may be instances where the building is taller th an 75 ft. as allowed by State law. S taff has tools to assist with this concern through development standards and the like but cannot guarantee it. Director Eastwood noted that Staff would return to Council throughout 2022 with additional methods and tools for addressing affordability and building height considerations.
Mayor Resnikoff opened the floor for public comment.

UNFINISHED BUSINESS - CONTINUED
Councilmember Gibbons noted that mixe d-use can include office/retail/commercial uses and can be included on the first and second floor of a development project. Councilmember Gibbons expressed a desire for transitional building heights and for open spaces along the Winchester corridor, and for including the First Street Parking Garage and Corporation Yard for EIR analysis but noted the extensive challenges with both locations. Councilmember Gibbons could support the Technology Park if it included a nearby pedestrian bridge. Councilmember Gibbo ns req uested Tier 2 sites around the Downtown Campbell light rail station to be included in the EIR analysis as it is an ideal location which just needs some creative development projects. Councilmember Gibbons requested large single -family parcels on Rinc on Avenue to be included, supports higher densities on the corner of Bascom and Hamilton but lower densities on the east side of Bascom to be respectful of the historic nearby neighborhoods, supports higher density at the culinary school site, and supports inclusion of the entire San Tomas Plaza site. Councilmember Gibbons expressed concern that the Southwest area of Campbell is a food desert and is supportive of mixed-use at the Milk Dairy Farm site and for encouraging open space in this area of the City.
Councilmember Lopez noted that he is not supportive of removing sites from the EIR process at this stage, noting the increased penalties of not meeting the RHNA numbers, the most significant being loss of local control. Councilmember Lopez is supportive of adding the sites identified by Councilmember Gibbons.
Councilmember Lopez noted that he would like to see a point system developed for identifying the best sites for mixed -use projects and is supportive of adding the Planning Commissions recommendation to provide mixed-use opportunities along the commercial corridors, adding incentives or even mandating for some higher density projects.
Councilwoman Landry displayed a chart depicting the various ways a development project could exceed the City’s 75 ft. bui lding height limit and expressed concerns that this may happen more than Council intends it to with higher density projects. Councilwoman Landry stated that she did not want to include more than 4,000 units in the EIR process for analysis.

Councilwoman Landry noted her support for including the sites noted by Councilmember Gibbons. Councilwoman Landry noted her support for investigating establishing impact fees to support the nee ded Ci ty services with the increase in population.
Mayor Resnikoff stated that he is not supportive of all the sites identified thus far but would like them all included in the EIR process to continue to identify those sites most feasible for inclusion in the fi nal Housing Element. Mayor Resnikoff stressed his concern about losing services that are going to be needed by residents, such as auto repair shops, and would like to keep these sites as they are if possible. Mayor Resnikoff noted his concerns relati ng to mandating mixed- use for some developments, stating that some sites it could be best suited for it, however mandating it in the Pruneyard where other retail is already located could be problematic. He would like to see more information relating to bui lding heights, tools to limit the height, and specific areas where going taller may be more acceptable.
Councilmember Gibbons requested the Finance Director issue a one -page informational memorandum on the property tax implications of this Housing Element process.
Director Eastwood summarized Council consensus as including all Tier 1 sites, adding in the late property owner requested sites, evaluating higher density on Bascom and Hamilton, adding in the Tier 2 sites near the Downtown Campbell light rail st ation, adding in larger parcels on Rincon Avenue, including the entire San Tomas Plaza site, including the Corporation Yard, First Street Parking Garage, and the Technology Park, and removing the auto repair shop sites along Winchester from the EIR process.

Councilmember Lopez expressed agreement with Councilmember Gibbons noting that the current district boundary map is population balanced and he feels there is a high bar that would need to be met in order to justify changing boundary lines.
Councilmember Bybee agreed with not disenfranchising any voters and stated that she is supportive of the current district boundary map as there was an extensive pro cess completed in 2019, it is still population balanced, and she would like to see the current map in place for a longer period before any changes are made.

Councilmember Lopez stated that he is viewing these personnel requests as staff reprioritizing their departmental needs noting that several the personnel costs are offset in other areas, and he is uncomfortable pushin g some of these requests to the budget cycle if they satisfy an urgent need in the departments.
Mayor Resnikoff noted that he is supportive of making personnel changes at the point in which a position is vacant, as this is often the best time to make the change but did state that additional information could be very helpful on some of these requests.
City Manager Loventhal noted a correction to the needs -based request list, there is an offset relating to the conversion o f a Senior Engineering Technician t o an Administrative Analyst position. This line item should be reflected as a -$10,000 bringing the total needs based requested to $440,000.

Report
TITLE: Resolution Reviewing and Accepting the Annual Developer Fee Disclosure Information for the Environmental Services Fee, Parkland Dedication Fee, and Vehicle Impact Fee and Making Five -Year Findings for the Parkland Dedication Fee and Vehicle Impact Fee for the Fiscal Year Ended June 30, 2021 Pursuant to California Government Code (GC) Section 66001 (Resolution/Roll Call Vote)
RECOMMENDED ACTION
That the Cit y Council adopt a resolution consistent with the Mitigation Fee Act (AB - 1600) to review and accept the annual developer fee disclosure information for the Environmental Services Fee, Parkland Dedication Fee, and Vehicle Impact Fee and make five-year findings for the Parkland Dedication Fee and Vehicle Impact Fee for the Fiscal Year ended June 30, 2021 pursuant to California Government Code (GC) Section 66001.
BACKGROUND
California Government Code Section 66000 et seq. (“Mitigation Fee Act”) requires local agencies to provide an accounting of fees charged for development projects. Effective January 1, 1989, AB -1600 required new accounting guidelines for the imposition and use of such fees. Effective January 1, 1997, SB -1693 further amended and expanded the provisions of the Code with respect to the accounting and reporting requirements.
The City has two basic accounting and reporting responsibilities under the Government Code. Section 66001(d) requires that, five years after collecting a development fee subject to this Code section and every five years thereafter, the local agency shall make findings with respect to any portion of the fee remaining unexpended, whether committed or uncommitted. If the required findings are not made, the unexpended funds shall be refunded to the current property owners.
These five-year findings must:
1. Identify the purpose of the fee;

When sufficient funds have been collected to complete financi ng on incomplete public improvements, the local agency has 180 days to identify an approximate date by which the construction of the public improvement will begin or else is required to refund the unexpended fees, including accrued interest, to the current owner of lots or units of the development project.
For the Fiscal Year ended June 30, 2021 (FY 2021), the City needs to make five -year findings for the remaining unexpended fee proceeds for the Parkland Dedication Fee and the Vehicle Impact Fee. Five -year findings are not required under the Government Code for the Environmental Services Fee. The second requirement set forth under Government Code Section 66006(b)(1) provides that each local agency is required on an annual basis, for each separate account, to make available to the public the following information:
1. Brief description of the type of fee in the account;
2. The amount of the fee;
3. The account’s beginning and ending balance;
4. The amount of fees collected and the interest earned;
5. A description of the improvements on which the funds were expended and the amount expended on each improvement including the percentage of the improvement funded with development fees;
6. An approximate date by which the construction of a public improvement will begin if the loca l agency determines that sufficient funds have been collected to complete financing on the incomplete improvement;
7. A description of each inter-fund transfer or loan made from the account;
8. The amount of any refunds made pursuant to Code Section 66001.
The City deposits impact fees subject to the above disclosure in the Environmental Services Fund (209), the Parkland Dedication Fund (295), and the Vehicle Impact Fund (202) to track these development related fees. Interest income is allocated to each fund based on their respective monthly cash balances. Expenditures from these funds were in the form of capital improvement projects to either renovate existing facilities or maintain the existing level of service, consistent with the General Plan and approved Capital Improvement Plan, due to increased demand related to development projects.
DISCUSSION
Annual reports, which are shown as Exhibits to the resolution accompanying this staff report (Attachment A) , summarize the FY 2021 fund activity for the Environmen tal Services Fee (Exhibit 1) , the Parkland Dedication Fee (Exhibit 2) , and the Vehicle Impact Fee (Exhibit 3) . The reports show the amount of fees collected in FY 2021, interest income, a brief description of the projects funded, the percentage of the projects funded by the development fees, and the beginning and ending balance of the funds.

Five-Year Report of City of Campbell Parkland Dedication Fee for the Fiscal Year ended June 30, 2021
Summary: This Five -Year Report provides information and findings on unexpended funds in the Parkland Dedication Fee account as of June 30, 20 21 pursuant to Government Code section 66001(d).
Fund Information : The Parkland Dedication Fund (295) currently contains Four Million Four Hundred Eighty-Five Thousand Seven Hundred Fifty -Four Dollars ($4,485,754) in unexpended Parkland Dedication Fees for acquisition, development and improvements to community and neighborhood parks in accordance with the Open Space Element (“Unexpended Fee”).
Pursuant to Government Code section 66001(d)(1):
A. Purpose. The Unexpended Parkland Dedication Fees will be used to fund acquisition, development and improvements to community and neighborhood parks in accordance with the Open Space Element as identified in the City of Campbell Parks and Recreation Qui mby Act Fee Update dated December 9, 2019 and the City’s Capital Improvement Program 20 21-2025. The projects include:
a. 15NN - San Tomas Aquino Creek Trail
b. 17DD - Campbell Park Improvements Design

d. 20AA - Auxiliary Gym Upgrades
e. 21KK - Campbell Park Bicycle Pathway

i. 24EE - JDM Rincon Recreational Building Assessment
j. 25AA - JDM Improvements – Rincon
B. Relationship between the fee and the purpose for which it is charged.
There exists a reasonable relationship between the Unexpended Fee described above and the purpose for which it was charged because the improvements will acquire, develop and improve community and neighborhood parks in accordance with the Open S pace Element and as set forth in the City of Campbell Parks and Recreation Qui mby Act Fee Update dated December 9, 2019 . The Fee is a means of ensuring that new development s construct their own parks or provide the City a means for acquisition, development and improvements to community and neighborhood parks in accordance with the Open Space Element.
C. Sources of funding anticipated to complete financing of incomplete

Packet Pg. 64
Attachment: Resolution AB-1600 FY 2021 (Annual Status Report on Project Development Fees (AB-1600)) Resolution - Development Impact Fees (AB-1600)
improvements. Based on the City of Campbell Parks and Recreation Quimby Act Fee Update dated December 9, 2019 , the weighted average of fair market value for parkland acquisition is Three Million Seven Hundred Twenty -One Thousand Eight Hundred Seventy -Three Dollars ($3,721,873) per a cre. On November 5, 2019, the City Council approved a reduced valuation of Three Million ($3,000,000) per acre for calculating in -lieu fees for parkland acquisition. According to Section 66477(a)(2) of the Government Code, the amount of land to be dedica ted or in-lieu fees to be imposed shall not exceed the amount necessary to provide three (3) acres of parkland per 1,000 residents, unless certain criteria is met. The City General Plan Policy to use the Quimby Act to provide three (3) acres of community, neighborhood, and passive parks per 1,000 residents is consistent with this statutory requirement.
Since the City currently provides fewer than three (3) acres per 1,000 residents, the City cannot impose a higher standard through the Quimby Program. All o ther costs that cannot be funded by the Parkland Dedication Fee are expected to be funded by outside grants.
D. Approximate dates on which the funding will be deposited. Parkland Dedication Fees are required to be deposited as developers obtain building permits; the dates on which future Fees will be collected is unknown.

Five-Year Report of City of Campbell Vehicle Impact Fee for the Fiscal Year ended June 30, 2021
Summary: This Five -Year Report provides information and findings on unexpended funds in the Vehicle Impact Fee account as of June 30, 20 21 pursuant to Government Code section 66001(d).
Fund Information: The Vehicle Impact Fund (202) currently contains Five Hundred Forty-Eight Thousand Two Hundred Seventy-Nine Dollars ($548,279) in unexpended Vehicle Impact Fees to fund the cost of street replacement and maintenance due to the cumulative impact of construction and other commercial vehicles at development sites (“Unexpended Fee”).
Pursuant to Government Code section 66001(d)(1):
A. Purpose. The Unexpended Vehicle Impact Fees will be used to fund the cost of street replacement and maintenance due to the cumulative impact of construction and other commercial vehicles at development sites as identified in the City of Campbell Road Maintenance Fees Analysis, dated June 2007 and the City’s Capital Improvement Program 2021-2025. The projects include:
a. 20JJ – Bascom/City Pavement Seal
b. 21BB – Annual Street Maintenance
c. 21SS – Camden Avenue Resurfacing
d. 22BB – Annual Street Maintenance
B. Relationship between the fee and the purpose for which it is charged.
There exists a reasonable relationship between the Unexpended Fee described above and the purpose for which it was charged because the improvements will fund the cost of street replacement and maintenance due to the cumulative impact of construction and other commercial vehicles at development sites as set forth in the City of Campbell Road Maintenance Fees Analysis, dated June 2007 . The Fee is a means of ensuring that new developments mitigate the impacts of vehicles to streets and roadways as a result of their developments.
C. Sources of funding anticipated to complete financing of incomplete improvements. Based on the City of Campbell Road Maintenance Fees Analysis, dated June 2007 , the rate of 0.32% of building permit valuation was established due to related estimated annual street maintenance costs of $244,292 caused by construction vehicles . All other costs that cannot be funded by the Vehicle Impact Fee are expected to be funded by state, county, and federal transportation allocations to the City as well as garage and permit fees.

In recent years Campbell parks have seen an increase in visitors in the first-come first- serve areas specifically at John D. Morgan park . The increase in use in these areas has led to a variety of challenges and has created disruption in the park for other users and for surrounding neighbors.
In 2019, staff worked to update the Campbell Municipal Code regarding park regulations and established a pilot program which included Par k Ambassadors. These efforts were established to help mitigate overuse at John D. Morgan Park and help resolve concerns from neighbors. The Park Ambassador Program took an educational approach to address the situation and temporary staff worked with park p atrons to educate them on park rules and the reservation process. While the program did help to mitigate large parties gathering in the first-come first-serve area it lacked the ability to provide proper enforcement when situations escalated. The seasonal position also presented challenges for consistency and recruitment.
With the onset of Covid -19 in March 2020 the Park Ambassador program was removed from the budget. In 2021, with the community utilizing outdoor spaces to their fullest extent, park usage increased dramatically bringing with it the issues in the first-come first- serve area from previous years.

INTRODUCTION OF

Modifications to Picnic Reservation Policy with Changes to FY22 Fee Schedule and Budget Adjustment
The first-come first-serve picnic areas located on the Rincon Avenue side of John D.
Morgan Park have generated a lot of use in recent years. Often groups that gather in these spaces far exceed the capacity of the picnic benches available. It has been noted on numerous occasions additional tables and chairs are being brought into this space to host upwards of 100 people. The park was not designed to accommodate this many people in the first-come first-serve area and the bringing in of additional tables and chairs is a violation of CMC 13.04.164.
Enforcement is extremely challenging when onsite staff is not present. While most instances violate the municipal code it is not the intent of any City staff member to have to shut down a family gathering, birthday party or other celebration. By the time the violation is reported, the gathering is usually well underway. Staff continue to take an educational approach when dealing with park users violating rules but feel that on site enforcement will be needed moving forward to prevent over usage of the park and prohibit additional tables, chairs and BBQ’s being brought into the park.
The first step in addressing the overuse of the first-come first-serve area is to convert the tables directly around the playground on the Rincon Ave. side of John D. Morgan Park to all be reservable picnic spaces. Staff has identified six different areas that can a ll be converted. One that is a bit further away from the playground will have a maximum capacity of 50 people while the remaining 5 areas directly surrounding the playground will range in capacity of 10 to 30 people per picnic space. When reserving City picnic spaces, the Recreation software does not allow patrons to reserve multiple picnic sites.
This will prevent a single patron from reserving all the picnic tables around the playground and allow for maximum usage from members of our community. When a res ervation is not made at least 72 hours prior, the space is then available as a first-come first-serve picnic site. These changes are reflected in the attached red -line version of the Picnic Reservation Policy and were reviewed and approved by the Parks and Recreation Commission on February 2, 2022.
Changes were also made to maximum occupancy for each proposed picnic site along with changes to the fee schedule. When modifying capacities at each picnic site staff took into consideration the number of tables and accessible open space away from other sites. The proposed fee changes align with capacities for each space and a standard non -resident increase was proposed for all non-resident fees. The policy also includes minor changes throughout and will also have formatting updates once approved.
The second step in addressing this issue is the onsite enforcement. Staff has learned through the Pilot Park Ambassador Program that having staff present is key to upholding rules and regulations in our parks, howeve r, having the right type of staff is critical. Staff has worked collaboratively with the Police Department and will be recommending a temporary position as a Public Safety Assistant to fulfill this need. The position would then be directly connected to Police support when additional enforcement is needed. Staff is recommending that while this position would need close to 600 hours to fulfill the needs at our parks that it be funded at 1,000 hours to encourage retention with the temporary position. This po sition can also provide support to Special Events held in the parks, 8 Packet Pg. 72
Modifications to Picnic Reservation Policy with Changes to FY22 Fee Schedule and Budget Adjustment
Community Center weekend rentals, and Downtown events. Staff projects that revenue received from picnic rentals will cover the cost of the temporary position on an annual basis.
The bud get changes being recommended were intended to be part of the mid -year budget adjustments to temporary personnel and supplies. Due to vacancies with the Parks and Recreation Commission a quorum to conduct a meeting was not feasible in January and the repor t was postponed to the February meeting. Consequently, this did not allow the requested budget changes to be incorporated into the mid -year budget report. Staff recommends these changes so that temporary personnel can be hired prior to the start of increas ed picnic usage in the parks which typically starts in March and April. Customers are currently able to book reservations through August 2022 and the postponement of the budget request to FY23 budget development will postpone the ability to enforce the proposed policy changes until mid to late summer.
FISCAL IMPACT
Prior to Covid -19, picnic revenue generated approximately $25,000 annually. If no changes are made it is anticipated that picnic revenue will be approximately $20,000 by the end of FY22. If the proposed changes are accepted along with changes to the fee schedule, staff is projecting conservatively with a moderate level of reservations and anticipates an additional $15,000 by the end of the fiscal year bringing the picnic revenue close to $35,000 for FY22. If the proposed changes are approved, it is projected that picnic revenue would generate close to $50,000 annually moving forward.
Additional expenses will also be needed for new signage (a one -time cost) and for the temporary staffing position. For FY22 signage is estimated at $2,500 and temporary staffing at $14,000.

In the event that the HOTLINE has not been updated, or is unavailable, groups are expected to make educated and responsible decisions regarding field conditions and playability, keeping in mind the current and future quality of turf facilities. In general, if you can see standing water, hear a “squishy” sound when walking on the turf, or have mud on th e bottom of your shoes after walking on the turf, the field is too wet to allow play. Scheduled activities on the turf should be canceled to avoid damage to the turf and potential injuries to the players.
3. GROUPS FAILING TO FOLLOW THE GUIDELINES OF THIS POLICY WILL SUBJECT THEIR RESERVATION TO CANCELLATION AND LOSS OF FUTURE USE. FIELDS
WILL BE CHECKED FOR MISUSE DURING TIMES WHEN FIELDS ARE CONSIDERED TOO WET AND/OR MUDDY BY DESIGNATED CITY STAFF.
4. Groups witnessing misuse of fields by other scheduled or unscheduled users are advised to contact Campbell Police Department (408-866-2101) to report misuse.
5. It is the reserving customer’s responsibility to be sure that all guests and participants understand and enforce this policy, however inconvenient it may be.

Report
TITLE: Extension of Temporary Downtown Parklet Program (Resolution/Roll Call Vote)
RECOMMENDED ACTION
Adopt a resolution extending the temporary parklet prog ram through October 31, 2022 for outdoor restaurant dining and business operations in parklets.
BACKGROUND
During its regular meeting of January 18, 2022, City Council provided favorable feedback on the creation of a permanent parklet program and directe d staff to draft a resolution (Attachment A) extending the temporary program beyond March 31, 2022 to allow time for development of a permanent program.
Council extended the temporary program to March 31 by adopting Resolution 12788 during a special meeting on December 21, 2021, due to increasing COVID case counts associated with the Omicron variant. The temporary parklet program was established via Council Resolution 12634 on September 1, 2020. The program was extended three additional times by Council R esolutions 12663, 12721 and 12758 while State and County Health Orders were in effect.
DISCUSSION
The proposed extension date of the temporary parklet program through October 31 , 2022 will allow sufficient time for the City to prepare a replacement perma nent program and provides the following benefits:
• Enable parklet operators to continue outdoor dining while the City considers, develops and implements a potential permanent program
• Businesses retain employees
• Offer a mix of dining options for patr ons amid the uncertainty regarding the future of the COVID-19 pandemic
• Establish a transition period from the temporary program to a permanent program should a permanent program be authorized by Council

Extension of Temporary Downtown Parklet Program Page 2 of 5
Currently, 17 Downtown businesse s operate parklets, occupying 40 public parking spaces including 30 on -street parking spaces and 10 off -street parking spaces. All parklets are occupied by restaurants and bars, including fourteen restaurants that occupy 28 on -street parking stalls on East Campbell Avenue and one restaurant that occupies two parking spaces on Central Avenue at Campbell Avenue. one additional establishment operate s a parklet in the City -owned parking lot at 201 Orchard City Drive. The typical size of an on-street parklet is two parallel parking stalls while the size of a parking lot parklet is five perpendicular stalls.
Parklet designs vary among businesses as some restaurants have built platforms and installed overhead structures within their parklets while other restauran ts simply place tables and chairs on the street surface within their parklets.
Local Emergency Declaration
On January 18, City Council adopted Resolution 12796 extending the Local Emergency Declaration until March 29, 2022, due to the ongoing COVID -19 pandemic. Extension of this declaration enables temporary parklets to remain in place due to relaxation of code enforcement priorities during the declaration’s existence. City Council reviews extension of the declaration every 60 days until conditions warran t termination per Government Code 8630(c). Extending the declaration enables temporary parklet operations to continue while a permanent program is considered.
Council feedback regarding a Permanent Parklet Program
At the January 18 th Council meeting, the Council reviewed program and policy options regarding a permanent parklet program and provided the following feedback:
Number, location and size of parklets
Council requested standards regarding the allocation, location and size of parklets for current and future businesses, as well as preserving parking stalls fronting non - restaurant businesses. Council expressed support for a two -parking stall parklet footprint and directed staff to continue working with community partners on parklet compatibility duri ng downtown events and provide a timeline for developing the program.
Design Options, Funding, and Parklet Use Fees
Council expressed support for pre -approved design-and-build options, ARPA funds to subsidize program costs/grants, and a parklet use fee. Council expressed support requiring applicants contributing to their permanent parklet costs.
Transition from Temporary to Permanent Parklets
Council support ed establishing a transition period from temporary parklets to permanent parklets. A three -month transition period would include a deadline for restaurants to apply for a parklet permit or vacate their temporary parklet. 9 Packet Pg. 113
Extension of Temporary Downtown Parklet Program Page 3 of 5
Storage of Restaurant Furniture and Equipment
Applicants should cover the full cost of storage of furniture and equipment as the construction period is not anticipated to be a long duration and is a cost of doing business.
Preparation of a Permanent Parklet Program
Creation of a permanent program will require the approval of text amendments to the municipal code allowing parklets to be established, and the creation of a permitting process similar to the City’s current Outdoor Dining Permit process, including the issuance of encroachment permits for establishing parklets.
Staff anticipates presenting a draft permanent parklet prog ram at Council’s April 5 th meeting, and based on Council direction, will plan to return with implementing ordinances for adoption at the May 17th Council meeting.
Staff will initiate a procurement process to secure consultant services to create, review and approve parklet designs for the program at an estimated cost of $20,000. In summary, six months are needed to develop and launch the program by August 2022.
An additional three -month transition period from temporary parklets to permanent parklets is n eeded following program launch. A projected timeline is included in the following table.
Permanent Parklet Program Timeline
Task / Description Estimated Date / Time Period
Return to Council with draft program April 5
Return to Council with ordinance adoption May 17

Completion of parklet designs and program
launch August
Transition Period – Application for Permanent
Parklet Permits and k-rail removal August to October 31, 2022 Permanent Parklet Installation
K-rail removal completed Winter / Spring 2023
FISCAL ANALYSIS
From the temporary program’s implementation in September 2020 through March 2022, the City will have spent $55,500 on k -rail rental and $74,980 in total on all related parklet expenses. The following table summarizes the costs. If the temporary program extends beyond March 31, k -rail rental costs would continue to be $2,750 per month.
The same k-rails could be purchased for approximately $30,000; however, the ongoing storage would present a challenge f or City staff to consider as storage space is very limited, and a crane is needed each time barriers are installed/removed. 9 Packet Pg. 114

Total $74,980 $25,000
Grand Total Through October 31, 2022 $99,980
*One-time cost
Along with rental costs of $22,000 to extend the temporary parklet program through October 2022, it is also estimated that it will cost $20,000 for the development of a permanent parklet program; thereby totaling $42,000 in additional unexpected costs beyond the current extension to March 31. K-rail removal costs of $3,000 were already expected at whatever point the temporary parklet program ends. The City currently has sufficient appropriations for these costs programmed into the FY 2022 Adopted Budget for program 101.539 (COVID 19 Response). Thus, no further budgetary appropriations are being requested at this time. If additional funding is needed, it may be programmed into the FY 2023 Proposed Budget ; using allocated and allowable ARPA funds if Council desired.
ALTERNATIVES
1. Do not extend the temporary program keeping current expiration date of March 31, 2022 in effect
2. Extend the temporary program to another date
3. Provide alternate direction to staff

WARNING: This email originated from an external sender! Please do not open attachments or click on links unless you are certain it is legitimate.
Dear Campbell Mayor and City Council Members,
I am a volunteer with the Moms Demand Action for Gun Sense in America group and a resident of Campbell.I am writing to you today to request your support of a future Safe Storage Firearms Ordinance in Campbell which would require all firearms in a residence be securely stored in a locked container or disabled with a trigger lock.
It concerns me greatly that nearly every day in this country one small child unintentionally kills himself or another child after finding an unsecured firearm typically in their home.
Additionally,
every day on average, two teens commit suicide using an unsecured firearm from their home or a relative’s home.
Please direct City staff to draft a secure storage ordinance to be brought back for a future vote.
Let's protect the children in our community.
Sincerely,
Andrea Freeman
