TO: Carpinteria City Council Members
FROM: Carp Connect Request for funding the Summer Student Wellness Program for Teens, Summer,2022
Date: May 3,2022
This request to the City of Carpinteria is a collaborative venture initiated by Carp Connect and multiple agencies including the Santa Barbara County Dept. of Public Health, Santa Barbara County Dept. of Behavioral Wellness, HopeNet of Carpinteria, CADA (Council of Alcoholism & Drug Abuse), FSA (Family Service Agency), CCP (Carpinteria Children's Project), Pacific Pride Foundation/REl, YouthWell, Asa Olsson, AtoZ Cooking School, some art and writing instructors living in the community, a professional broadcaster & public affairs director of UCSB radio station, the Parks & Rec Department of the City of Carpinteria and CUSD (Carpinteria Unified School District) partners.
URGENT NEED FOR MENTAL HEALTH & SUPPORT SERVICES FOR TEENS Therehasbeen a600/o increaseinsuicideratesamongteenssince200T.Oneinfive teens report thoughts of suicide (New York Times, April 24, 2022). Read attached pages on Teen Depression.
This program will be an effort of many agencies and individuals to provide much needed services to those students who have been identified by CUSD or FRC (Family Resource Center of Carp Children's Project) as needing additional and supportive services during the summer months. Other CUSD students will also be able to take the enrichment classes based on enrollments.
To provide much needed services for our teens in grades 9 - 12, ages 14 -18, various organizations will work together to provide both a clinical and non-clinical models of help for our teens and their families with mental help support, creative, recreational and outdoor activities and referrals for additional services. The Family Resource Center of the Carpinteria Children's Project will act as the Navigator and coordinate and refer teens and the families for services and activities along with START therapists working at CUSD.*
The students will fill in applications for these enrichment classes with their therapist during May.
Since 2006 the START program has been operating in all the Carpinteria Schools.
Working with the County Behavioral Wellness this program was originally funded with Medi-Cal, since 2010 it is under MHSA/Prop 63 statefunding and an additional $10,000 L
per therapist for the school year, excluding summer vacation. This request would include funding these therapists during the summer months to continue the power of relationships that have been established during the school year. Many of the children who are served through this program require this therapeutic support and other referrals during the summer months. (during the summer months the cost is $8,600 per therapist or $17,200 for two therapists. CUSD would love to hire more than just two therapists so that students on the waitlist can also be served) START Therapists at CUSD
CUSD partnered with Family Service Agency (FSA) and the Council on Alcohol and Drug Abuse (CADA) to staff the Support, Treatment, Advocacy, and Referral Team (START) program which provides therapeutic services to students with mental health, substance abuse, or co-occurring issues. our partnership with CADA and FSA has been instrumental in establishing a comprehensive, multifaceted approach to help ensure schools are caring and supportive places to maximize learning and well-being and strengthen students, families, schools, and the Carpinteria community. Specific services include:
r lntervention, linkage, programs, and services to intervene as early as possible after the onset of learning, behavior, substance abuse, and emotional problems; o Enhancing mental health and addressing substance abuse issues of students and families;
o Referral and linkage to other community services and support to develop comprehensive, mu ltifaceted, a nd cohesive conti nu u m of school -commu n ity interventions to address barriers to learning and promote healthy development.
A variety of classes taught by professionals include cooking classes, a hiking/walking class in collaboration with Pacific Pride/REl, a multi-media journaling class, a podcast class, art & writing classes, a 6-week improv and drama course for 10-12 CHS students would be funded through this venture. We will try to include some job coaching in this summer program as well as internships. lnternships will require additional funding, possibly from Carp Growers, which we will continue to address.
Scholarships from City of Carpinteria Parks & Rec for a variety of classes including swimming, kayaking, tennis and/or other classes & night swims for the whole family, would be helpful. They are not included in our budget.
This collaborative venture will provide those teens most in need of therapeutic and nontherapeutic support a summer of fun activities and the continued, existing relationship with their on-going therapist.
2 CLASSES OFFERED
Cooking Classes through Apples to Zucchini Cooking School:
Our mission is to bring people together over shared meals by teaching children, teens and adults how to prepare delicious, nutritious, affordable meals made from seasonal and local ingredients. We are a non-profit, and we have been serving Santa Barbara since 2016. We teach afterschool classes at schools and various non-profits (Girls lnc. SB, SB School of Squash, Gaucho Underground Scholars, SAFE House, Noah's Anchorage, Casa Serena). We also teach classes for adults -- Food As Medicine classes led by doctors and Just for Fun classes led by our excellent Chef Educators. Meets twice a week for 6 weeks - one class per week is on CHS campus; second class may be off-site & outdoors at a park, the beach or the bluffs or on campus.
Art Making: A workshop-type approach to art-making in a low-pressure, studentoriented atmosphere. Students will complete one take-home project per session.
Principles of design and color theory will be taught in relation to each project. A variety of painting, drawing, and printmaking media will be used. All levels of experience will be accommodated. Students will be asked to examine their personal tastes and responses to works of art, as well as the art-making process, as an opportunity to understand and solidify their core selves. Meets once a week from /-3 pm @ CHS.
Drama Workshop

Classes geared toward teambuilding, empowerment and trust while dealing with provocative & sensitive subjects. Meets on Saturday from 70 am -/2 noon at Carp Connect.
Find Your Voice with Podcasting
Good communication skills are critical to a happy and healthy life. ln this workshop series, students will learn how to present their ideas, views and interviews with others in a podcast.

Multi-Media Journaling Class
Journaling as a practice has been shown to improve mental and emotional health outcomes, especially for those dealing with trauma and PTSD, and promotes optimism, resilience, and gratitude. This class will provide safe spaces, both in the form of a shared classroom space and in the form of a private journal, where students can reflect on their experiences, create without judgment, and express their emotions. Meets once a week for 2 hours at Carp Connect beginning July 3.
Your Magic Pen: Turning Feelings into Letters
Writing a letter is a healthy way to express one's feelings, whether the letter is sent or not. This workshop offers attendees a place to explore the best way to say on paper what they would like someone else to know. For safety and comfort, attendees' work will not be shared, discussed, or "corrected." (This workshop is not concerned with grammar, spelling, etc.) To complement the written word, participants also will create greeting cards and, if time allows, be introduced to cursive penmanship and practice lettering.
Meets once a week on Wednesdays, 3- 4:30 pm at Carp Connect.

SUMMARY
The need to address mental health issues has been exacerbated during the pandemic and this is especially evident among teens who are more isolated than ever, along with normal age-related challenges and social pressures. This enrichment program provides therapeutic, creative and recreational outlets. lt seems like a small price to pay for helping our youth.
There is an abundance of desire to assist our community by the response of multiple public and private agencies, individuals and government agencies to donate a portion of their services, supplies, equipment and venues. Please consider funding this summer program for teens.
6 This ls What Teen Depression Looks Like by Elise Jamison, 18 yrs. old I want you to picture a person with depression, Are you seeing the dark bedroom, filthy sweatpants, empty eyes, poor health and general lack of prosperity?
You know what I see when I picture depression? A blonde, blue-eyed teenage girl, She gets awesome grades, loves to paint, go to football games, drink Starbucks, lnstagram and giggles with her friends, She can quote Harry Potter, obsesses over makeup tutorials and cannot wait for college, She looks back at me every morning in the mirror,
Since I was diagnosed with depression five years ago, I have noticed a lot of stigma surrounding it, Even the image that pops into view when depression is mentioned is an inaccurate generalization, Anyone can have depression
-
from celebrities, to hairstylists, to that guy next to you in algebra. lt isn't just the gloomy kids, This illness is pervasive and the amount of misconception is astounding, So I am going to share some of my experiences to help clear the air,
We live in a time that demands instant gratification, We have Nyquil, cough syrup and various other instant cures for our ailments. Unfortunately, antidepressants are not to depression as ibuprofen is to headaches.
Depression is often a long journey. Medication and therapy help, but do not make it disappear. The only "cure" is to accept depression and try to make positive, healthy choices, The worst part of a depressive episode is when someone asks questions like "Why?" "What happened?" or "Was someone mean to you?" Sometimes, there is an antecedent, but more often than not, depression just hits you. lt feels like riding a bike, and in the blink of an eye, you're trying to pedal through quicksand with no tires. Moreover, it is almost impossible to explain, so trying to answer these questions makes you feel like even more of a failure. lt can be frustrating as a friend or family member to read this -
advice is much
easier to give when there is a definitive issue at hand. The best thing you can do when you are trying to help someone with depression is to simply be there,
I have depression, but I am one of 16 million Americans with the same diagnosis, Depression does not make me unique. What makes me unique is the fact that I talk about it, lt took me four years to find a way to speak about my mental illness. The shame, weakness and hopelessness I feel when I am depressed are debilitating, These are not the kind of feelings I like to admit to having, but I know that I am not alone in my loneliness. There are millions of other people who feeljust like me, I want them to know they are not alone, so I speak up, lt may hurt to start the conversation, but in the end, the dark clouds overhead often lift.
The four things I would like you take away from this piece are the following:
1. There is no face of depression, lt impacts every race, religion, gender, socioeconomic group and geographical area,
2. Depression has no miracle medicine or quick fix.
3. lt is hard to explain depression, so it is best to just be there and not ask question.
4. Depression is painful to discuss, but it's beneficialto talk about it in the end.
The bottom line is that mental illness sucks, lt's not fun to deal with personally, or to watch someone else battle it, The best thing you can do for yourself, or anyone else with a mental illness is to speak. An open 7 dialogue is the only way that the stigma associates with mental illnesses can be eliminated p,s, lf you believe that you are suffering from depression, I encourage you to get help. Find a counselor, pastor, parent or friend and spill your guts. You might cry but talking about it can take away that clenched feeling in your chest that makes it hard to breathe.

ITEM FOR COUNCIL CONSIDERATION
Resolutions calling the November 8, 2022 General Municipal Election, requesting Consolidation of Election with County of Santa Barbara, and adopting regulations for Candidate Statements.
STAFF RECOMMENDATION
Adopt the attached three resolutions relating to the November 8,2022 election
1. Resolution No.6128, calling and giving notice of the November 8,2022 General Municipal Election; and
2. Resolution No.6129, requesting consolidation of the November 8,2022 General Municipal Election with the Statewide General Election; and
3. Resolution No.6130 adopting regulations for Candidate Statements.
Motion: I move to adopt Resolution No. 6128, calling and giving notice of the November 8,2022 election; Resolution No. 6129, requesting consolidation of the November 8, 2022 General Municipal Election with the Statewide General Election; and Resolution No. 6130 adopting regulations for Candidate Statements.
BACKGROUND
The City's General Municipal Election is held on the day of the Statewide General Election in November of each even numbered year. The November 2022 election will be the City's first district-based election and include an initiative measure in addition to the election of three members of the City Council.
ln November 2021, the proponents filed signatures gathered on the initiative petition with the City Clerk. On January 10, 2022, the City Council adopted Resolution No. 6081, accepting the City Clerk's Certificate of Sufficiency of the lnitiative petition. Also at the January 10,2022 Council meeting the City Council adopted Resolution Nos. 6092, 6093, 6094, and 6095, calling regular Municipal Election to be held on November General Municipal Election of City Council Candidates 2022 May 9,2022
8,2022 for the submission of an lnitiative Measure, requesting consolidation from County Elections, setting priorities for filing written arguments regarding the lnitiative Measure, and providing for the filing of rebuttal arguments for an lnitiative Measure, respectively.
ln July 2017, the City received a Notice of Violation of California Voting Rights Act and the City Council adopted Resolution No. 5743, declaring its intention to transition from an at-large election system to a district-based election system by the November 2O2Z regular election. ln addition to adopting Resolution No. 5743, the Council executed a subsequent settlement agreement with the prospective plaintiffs who filed the Notice of Violation. The settlement agreement allowed the City to institute district elections by the November 2022 regular election in order to allow 2020 census data to be taken into account in drawing district boundaries.
The City previously held five required publicly noticed hearings of the City Council as part of the City's process for drawing City Council District Maps. On April 11, 2022 the City Council adopted Ordinance No. 752 which formally established district-based elections for Councilmembers and adopted the Council District Map (see Attachment A) and via adoption of Ordinance No. 753, the Council established the sequence of elections for Councilmember Districts. The adopted Council district map includes five districts with District Nos. 1, 3, and 5 up for election in November 2022 and District Nos. 2 and 4 up for election in November 2024 and alternating each even-numbered year.
The purpose of this agenda matter is for the Council to consider adoption of Resolution Nos. 6128,6129, and 6130, calling the November 8, 2022 General Municipal Election, requesting consolidation with the Statewide General Election, and adopting regulations for Candidate Statements, respectively, to elect three members of the City Council.
DISCUSSION
The November 8,2022 General Municipal Election will include the election of three members of the city Council representing council District Nos. 1, 3, and 5.
The California Elections Code establishes the procedure for consolidation in Sections 10400-1 0418. The procedure allows the City Council to request consolidation at the same time as the resolution calling the election is adopted. These resolutions authorize the agency conducting the election (County of Santa Barbara) to conduct the election on behalf of the City and to canvass the results. The Elections Code also requires the Council to adopt regulations for candidates for elective office pertaining to candidate statements.
POLICY
The City Council actions relating to municipal elections is consistent with the City's policies and procedures as well as state law for general law cities.

FINANCIAL CONSIDERATIONS
The election costs by consolidating with the County are considerably less than they would be if the City held a "stand-alone" election,
The County Elections Department, prior to the November election, provides each consolidating City with the estimated cost for administering their election. The estimate included in the 2022-2023 fiscal year budget will be $25,000.
LEGAL AND RISK MANAGEMENT CONSIDERATIONS
There are no legal or risk management issues identified at this time.
OPTIONS
1. Adopt the Resolutions as submitted;
2. Amend the Resolutions, provided all requirements of the Elections Code are met, and adopt the Resolutions as amended; or

The County of Salta Barbara (County) is currently contracted with the City for maintenance services of all the City-owned traffic signals. Caltrans performs maintenance services for its own traffic signals.
In9 C'tV is also in progress of designing a new traffic signal at the Carpinteria Avenue and Palm Avenue intersection. The estimated date of compbtion of the design is summer 2022.
To date, the City is awaiting the electricaldesign to becompleted by Southern California Edison. This upcoming signalized intersection will be a part of the tramc signal network, ftq.mq signal t1miry is essentially an engineering and traffic study for determining optimization of vehicle green time and pedestrian walk durationsthat are to be allocated to each intersection movement. Traffic signal timing is typically warranted when there is a change in the traffic signal_network, such as an addition of a new traffic signal. The City was waiting for the six newtraffic signals from Caltrans' Highway 101 corridor projects to b6 completed before conducting traffic signaltiming citywide. Although the traffii signal network comprises of both City-owned and Caltrans-owned traffiCsignals, the C-ity is responsible for ensuring the traffic signal timing within City limits is coordinated because it affects City streets.
IPm91O_ryt timing is -also currently recommended by the City's Local Roadway Safety Plan (LRSP) as one of the countermeasures of traffic safety improvement for the following priority intersections, as identified by the LRSp:

Further, the Carpinteria Avenue and Reynolds Avenue/Highway 101 On- and Off-ramps intersection is scheduled to be evaluated on an annual baiis stbrting in 2023 and throirgh 2040. This intersection is not currently a signalized intersection and is not proposed as such. However, Caltrans' traffic impact analysis warrants a 4-way Stop controlled intersection. The trafficwarrant analysis was conducted as a pai of ttie design for the Highway 101 Carpinteria to Santa Barbara Phase 44 Project. Caltrans is obfgated to make a lump sum payment towards the City for conducting the annual evaluations in accordance with the conditions of approval for the conditional use permit and coastal development permit for tf'_"_[ig!ry"y l0l Carpinteria to Santa Barbara Phase 44 Project (Perhit No. 18- 192O-CUPrcDP) The lump sum is yet to be paid, but Caltrans is in prolresi of preparing the cost estimate. Although this intersection is and will not be a signatized intersection, ilie traffic signal timing will take into consideration a 4-way Stop controlled intersection scenario.
The purpose of this agenda matter is for the City Council to authorize the City Manager to execute the Ag,reement with TKM Engineering for traffic signal timing services in an 6mount not-to-exceed $39,300.

SUBJECT: ProposaltoProvideTrafficSignalTimingServices
Dear Mr. llasin,
TKM Engineering is pleased to present this proposal to provide Traffic Signal Timing Services to the City of Carpinteria as requested. The work will be focused on the signalized intersections along Linden Ave, Carpinteria Avenue, and Casitas Pass Rd. The scope will provide options for which intersections the city would like in the project. The lntersections that could be in this project are:
t. Linden Ave at Ogan Rd
2. Linden Ave at US 101SB Ramp (Caltrans)
3. Linden Ave at Carpinteria Ave
4. Carpinteria Ave at Palm Ave (future signal)
5. Carpinteria Ave at Casitas Pass Rd
6. Casitas Pass Rd at US 101 SB Ramps (Caltrans)
7. Casitas Pass Rd at Via Real
8. Via Real at US 101 NB Ramps (Caltrans)
9. Carpinteria Ave at Santa Ynez Ave and 7th St
This proposal includes a scope of work, schedule, and a proposed budget. Since the City has worked with me in the past, I did not include a resume, but it can be provided if requested.
PROJECT SCOPE OF WORK
The proposed scope of work willgenerally include project management, data collection, development of signal timing and coordination plans, preparing timing sheets, and working with Caltrans and the County of Santa Barbara on timing review and field implementation of the new timing.
Project Management
TKM Engineering will provide project management for the project including monthly progress reporting, final project memo with recommendations, and meetings with City staff. 1244 Poli Street

Data Collection
TKM Engineering will hire an outside traffic data collection firm for the collection of traffic data including vehicle and bicycle turning movements and pedestrian counts at the project intersections during the morning, midday, and afternoon peak periods. Data collection will also include the following being provided by the City and/or County:
o Existing traffic signal timing sheets
o Signal design plans
Synchro Traffic Modeling
TKM Engineering will develop a traffic signal timing microsimulation model in Synchro by Trafficware. The development of the model will include:
r Building the network using publicly available ariel photos, signal design plans, existing timing, and collected traffic count data.
o Evaluating and updating clearance timing and pedestrian timing to meet existing standards r Calibrating the network
o Analyzing three time periods (am peak, midday, and pm peak) e Developing three coordination timing plans, including optimizing cycle length and determining offsets
o Determining time of day patterns and changes from one coronation plan to another r Evaluating before-after predicted changes to level of service, stops, and delay at each intersection and the corridor
The Synchro traffic model will be provided to the City at the end of the project for use in future re-timing or optimization efforts.
Preparation of Timing Sheets and lmplementation of Field Timing TKM Engineering will prepare McCain/Bitran timing sheets based on the final output of the Synchro model. The timing sheets will be provided in Exceland pdf formats. The Excel format files can be used as the City held master timing sheets to be updated when timing changes are made in the field. I will coordinate with Siemens for field implementation including field verifying phase timing and coordination timing by reviewing individual intersections and driving the corridor.
Scope of Work Options
we are presenting three options for the city to consider for the project.
Option 1: Prepare SignalTiming Optimization and Coordination Plans for Linden Ave and Carpinteria Ave
The scope of work would include the 5 intersections along Linden Ave and Carpinteria Ave as follows:
1. Linden Ave at Ogan Rd
2. Linden Ave at US 101SB Ramp (Caltrans)
3. Linden Ave at Carpinteria Ave
4. Carpinteria Ave at Palm Ave (future signal)
5. Carpinteria Ave at Casitas Pass Rd
This option would provide for top priority coordination timing needs of the City. 2 1244 PoliStreet

Option 2: Prepare Signal Timing Optimization and Coordination Plans for Option 1 and Casitas Pass Road
ln addition to Option 1- locations, the following locations would be evaluated:
6. Casitas Pass Rd at US 101S8 Ramps (Caltrans)
7. Casitas Pass Rd at Via Real
8. Via Real at US 101 NB Ramps (Caltrans)
This option would add Casitas Pass Rd and the Caltrans signal at Via Real and the NB ramps so timing along the corridor could be evaluated for facilitating traffic from the freeway offramp to Carpinteria Rd. This does include two additional Caltrans intersections, so more coordination will be needed.
Option 3: Prepare Signal Timing Optimization for Option 2 and the lntersection of Carpinteria Ave at Santa Ynez/7th St
ln addition to Option l and Option 2locations, the following location would be evaluated:
9. Carpinteria Ave at Santa Ynez Ave and 7th St
This location can essentially operate independently of the rest of the corridors for now. The analysis would be focused on making the intersection timing safe for school ages and efficient traffic flow through the intersection.
PROJECT STAFFING
The services proposed in this letter will be performed by Thomas Mericle, PE, TE, President/Principal Resume can be provided upon request.
SCHEDULE
Based on availability to collect traffic count data and Caltrans review time frames, the following schedule is anticipated:
April-May 2022: New traffic counts; Data collection; initial discussions with Caltrans and County of Santa Barbara
June2o22: Synchro network development and evaluation of basic signal clearance timing and pedestrian crossing time parameters
July 2O22: Network analysis, development of cycle lengths, intersection phase timing, and coordination timing

Consultant and City agree to the following with respect to insurance provided by Consultant:
l. Consultant agrees to have its insurer endorse the third party general liability coverage required herein to include as additional insureds City, its officials, employees, volunteers and agents, using standard ISO endorsement No. CG 2010-0413. Consultant also agrees to require all contractors and subcontractors to do likewise.
2. No liability insurance coverage provided to comply with this Agreement shall prohibit Consultant, or Consultant's employees or agents, from waiving the right of subrogation prior to a loss. Consultant agrees to waive subrogation rights against City regardless of the applicability of any insurance proceeds, and to require all contractors and subcontractors to do likewise.
3. All insurance coverage and limits provided by Contractor and available or applicable to this agreement are intended to apply to the full extent of the policies. Nothing contained in this Agreement or any other agreement relating to the City or its operations limits the application of such insurance coverage.
4. None of the coverages required herein will be in compliance with these requirements if they include any limiting endorsement of any kind that has not been first submitted to City and approved of in writing.
5. No liability policy shall contain any provision or definition that would serve to eliminate so-called "third party action over" claims, including any exclusion for bodily injury to an employee of the insured or ofany contractor or subcontractor.
6' All coverage types and limits required are subject to approval, modification and additional requirements by the City, as the need arises. Consultant shall not make any reductions in scope of coverage (e.g., elimination of contractual liability or reduction of discovery period) that may affect City's protection without City's prior written consent. 7 ' Proof of compliance with these insurance requirements, consisting of certificates of insurance evidencing all of the coverages required and an additional insured endorsement to Consultant's general liability policy, shall be delivered to City at or prior to the execution of this Agreement. In the event such proof of any insurance is not delivered as required, or in the event such insurance is canceled at any time and no replacement coverage is provided, City has the right, but not the duty, to obtain any insurance it deems necessary to protect its interests under this or any other agreemenl and to pay the premium. Any premium so paid by City shall be charged to and promptly paid by Consultant or deducted from sums due Consultant, atCity option.
8. Certificate(s) are to reflect that the insurer will provide 30 (thirty) days notice to City of any cancellation of coverage. Consultant agrees to require its insurer to modiff such certificates to delete any exculpatory wording stating that failure of the insurer to mail written notice of cancellation imposes no obligation, or that any party will "endeavor" (as opposed to being required) to comply with the requirements of the certificate.
l3
9. It is acknowledged by the parties of this agreement that all insurance coverage required to be provided by Consultant or any subcontractor, is intended to apply first and on a primary, non-contributing basis in relation to any other insurance or self insurance available to City.
10. Consultant agrees to ensure that subcontractors, and any other party involved with the project who is brought onto or involved in the project by Consultant, provide the same minimum insurance coverage required of Consultant. Consultant agrees to monitor and review all such coverage and assumes all responsibility for ensuring that such coverage is provided in conformity with the requirements of this section. Consultant agrees that upon request, all agreements with subcontractors and others engaged in the project will be submitted to City for review.
I 1. Consultant agrees not to self-insure or to use any self-insured retentions or deductibles on any portion ofthe insurance required herein and further agrees that it will not allow any contractor, subcontractor, Architect, Engineer or other entity or person in any way involved in the performance of work on the project contemplated by this agreement to self-insure its obligations to City. If Consultant's existing coverage includes a deductible or self-insured retention, the deductible or self-insured retention must be declared to the City. At that time the City shall review options with the Consultant, which may include reduction or elimination of the deductible or self-insured retention, substitution of other coverage, or other solutions.
12. The City reserves the right at any time during the term of the contract to change the amounts and types of insurance required by giving the Consultant ninety (90) days advance written notice of such change. If such change results in substantial additional cost to the Consultant, the City will negotiate additional compensation proportional to the increased benefit to City.
13. For purposes of applying insurance coverage only, this Agreement will be deemed to have been executed immediately upon any party hereto taking any steps that can be deemed to be in furtherance of or towards performance of this Agreement.
14. Consultant acknowledges and agrees that any actual or alleged failure on the part of City to inform Consultant of non-compliance with any insurance requirement in no way imposes any additional obligations on City nor does it waive any rights hereunder in this or any other regard.
15. Consultant will renew the required coverage annually as long as City or its employees or agents face an exposure from operations of any type pursuant to this Agreement. This obligation applies whether or not the Agteement is canceled or terminated for any reason. Termination of this obligation is not effective until City executes a written statement to that effect.
16. Consultant shall provide proof that policies of insurance required herein expiring during the term of this Agreement have been renewed or replaced with other policies providing at least the same coverage. Proof that such coverage has been ordered shall be submitted prior to expiration. A coverage binder or letter from Consultant's insurance agent to this effect is acceptable. A certificate of insurance and/or additional insured endorsement as required in these specifications applicable to the renewing or new coverage must be provided to City within five days of the expiration of the coverages.
t4
17' The provisions of any workers' compensation or similar act will not limit the obligations of Consultant under this Agreement. Consultant expressly agrees not to use any statutory immunity defenses under such laws with respect to city, its employees, officials and agents.
18. Requirements of specific coverage features or limits contained in this section are not intended as limitations on coverage, limits or other requirements nor as a waiver of any coverage normally provided by any given policy. Specific reference to a given coverage feature is for purposes of clarification only as it pertains to a given issue and is not intended by any party or insured to be limiting or all-inclusive.
19. These insurance requirements are intended to be separate and distinct from any other provision in this agreement and are intended by the parties here to be interpreted as such.
20. The requirements in this Section supersede all other sections and provisions of this Agreement to the extent that any other section or provision conflicts with or impairs the provisions of this Section.
21. Consultant agrees to be responsible for ensuring that no contract used by any party involved in any way with the project reserves the right to charge City or Consultant for the cost of additional insurance coverage required by this agreement. Any such provisions are to be deleted with reference to City. It is not the intent of City to reimburse any third party for the cost of complying with these requirements.
There shall be no recourse against City for payment of premiums or other amounts with respect thereto.
22. The City's failure to comply with reporting requirements should not affect coverage required under the Agreement.
23. The consultant's insurance is primary to that of any insurance claimed by the City.
Consultant agrees to provide immediate notice to City of any claim or loss against Consultant arising out of the work performed under this agreement. City assumes no obligation or liability by such notice, but has the right (but not the duty) to monitor the handling of any such claim or claims if they are likely to involve City.

insurance; or
(71 When You Add Others As An
Additional lnsured To This
lnsurance
That is other insurance available to an
additional insured.
However, the following provisions
apply to other insurance available to
any person or organization who is an
additional insured under this Coverage
Part:
(a) Primary lnsurance When
Required By Contract
This insurance is primary if you
have agreed in a wriften contract,
written agreement or permit that
this insurance be primary. lf other
insurance is also primary, we will
share with all that other insurance
by the method described in c.
below.
(b) Primary And Non.Contributory To Other lnsurance When Required By Contract
lf you have agreed in a written
contract, written agreement or
permit that this insurance is
primary and non-contributory with the additional insured's own insurance, this insurance is
primary and we will not seek
contribution from that other
insurance.
Paragraphs (a) and (b) do not appty to
other insurance to which the additional
insured has been added as an
sTSBWBNF*Etional insured.
Wren this insurance is excess, we will
have no duty under this Coverage Part to
defend the insured against any "suit" if any
other insurer has a duty to defend the
insured against that "suit". lf no other
insurer defends, we will undertake to do
so, but we will be entitled to the insured's
rights against all those other insurers.
BUSINESS UABILITY COVERAGE FORM
When this insurance is excess over other
insurance, we will pay only our share of
the amount of the loss, if any, that
exceeds the sum of:
(1) The total amount that all such other
insurance would pay for the loss in the
absence of this insurance; and
(21 The total of all deductible and selfinsured amounts under all that other insurance.
We will share the remaining loss, if any, with
any other insurance that is not described in
this Excess lnsurance provision and was not
bought specifically to apply in excess of the
Limits of lnsurance shown in the
Declarations of this Coverage Part.
c. Method Of Sharing
lf all the other insurance permits
contribution by equal shares, we will follow
this method also. Under this approach,
each insurer contributes equal amounts
until it has paid its applicable limit of
insurance or none of the loss remains,
whichever comes first.
lf any of the other insurance does not permit
contribution by equal shares, we will
contribute by limits. Under this method, each
insurer's share is based on the ratio of its
applicable limit of insurance to the total
applicable limits of insurance of all insurers.
Transfer Of Rights Of Recovery Against
Others To Us
a. Transfer Of Rights Of Recovery
lf the insured has rights to recover all or part of any payment, including Supplementary Payments, we have made
under this Coverage Part, those rights are
transferred to us. The insured must do
nothing after loss to impair them. At our
request, the insured will bring "suit" or
transfer those rights to us and help us
enforce them. This condition does not
apply to Medical Expenses Coverage.
b. Waiver Of Rights Of Recovery (Waiver
Of Subrogation)
lf the insured has waived any rights of
recovery against any person or
organization for all or part of any payment,
including Supplementary Payments, we
have made under this Coverage Part, we
also waive that right, provided the insured
waived their rights of recovery against
such person or organization in a contract,
agreement or permit that was executed
prior to the injury or damage.

ITEM FOR COUNCIL CONSIDERATION
A report on local regulations that serve to restrict formula businesses
STAFF MENDATION
Receive and file the report and direct staff as determined appropriate Sample Motion: I move to receive and file the report and [direct staff pursuant to the outcome of City Council deliberationsl.
BACKGROUND
At its meeting of February 14,2022, the City Council requested that staff prepare a report on how cities regulate chain stores and restaurants, also known as "formula businesses", that have standardized services, d6cor, methods of operation, and other features that make them virtually identical to businesses elsewhere.l Staff has found that there are many cities in California that have enacted policies that restrict the proliferation of formu la businesses.
Having saturated central downtown districts, malls, and other shopping areas, many formula businesses are increasingly locating in downtowns and neighborhood business districts. Communities have found it common for formula businesses to arrive in an area en masse, squeezing out independent businesses and causing a speculative run-up in rents that results in the wholesale transformation of a business district almost overnight.2
The loss of independent, locally owned/operated stores can have longterm economic consequences for communities. ln addition to causing downtown or neighborhood business districts to lose their distinctive appeal, formula businesses often drive up rents where they locate. Higher rents can have the effect of pushing out independent 1 S.

entrepreneurs and low-margin/service businesses that meet the basic needs of surrounding neighborhoods (such as grocers and beauty/barber shops).
Local economies dominated by formula businesses tend to be solely profit based and disconnected from meeting community needs over time rather than seeking a business model that fills a local niche and/or is complementary to existing businessel in similar categories.3 Perhaps of greatest concern, formula businesses often invest locally generated profits outside of the community and disappear quickly when the economy contracts or their corporate strategy shifts, leaving behind building vacancies with higher rent expectations.a
The potentially deleterious effects of formula businesses on communities and their local economies is not a new issue in land use planning, having been identified at least as far back as the 1970's.5 To prevent and mitigate these problems, some cities and towns have adopted ordinances that prohibit formula businesses, cap their total number, or require that they meet certain conditions to open.
The purpose of this agenda matter is to allow the Council to consider the report, deliberate, and to direct staff accordingly.
DISCUSSION
The following section provides an overview of approaches implemented by various municipalities throughout California to regulate formula businesses, a discussion of the City's primary commercial zone districts (and the development review process associated with development in both of those districts), and a case study of formula business regulations implemented by the City of Ojai.
Overview of Approaches to Requlate Formula Businesses
When drafting and enacting a formula business ordinance, a city should articulate in its discussions, legislative history, and the ordinance itself what public purposes the ordinance will serve and specify how the established restrictions will serve those purposes.6 Common public purposes cited in formula business ordinances include:
maintaining the unique character of the community, specific districts, or neighborhoods; protecting the community's economic vitality by ensuring a diversity of businesses; protecting and encouraging a robust community of small and local businesses; preventing tumultuous or unstable economic/housing markets; and fostering businesses that serve the needs of the residents, rather than tourists.T 3ld.

Cities that elect to establish restrictions on formula businesses have a number of options available for how to approach the regulations, including the following:
Defining Formula Businesses and Types of Businesses Regulated. What types of Formula Businesses should be regulated? Some cities prohibit only certain types of formula businesses (such as restaurants) while other cities have placed restrictions on all types of formula businesses (restaurants and retail stores).
Geographic Scope of Regulations. Willthe ordinance apply only to certain zones or be citywide? Many formula business ordinances apply citywide, but they may also be written to apply only to a specific area within the community.
Other Regulatory Tools to Limit Formula Businesses. Should the regulations prohibit formula businesses altogether, cap their number, or make them a conditional use subject to case-by-case review and approval? a
a
o
The following sections provide additional discussion about each of the above considerations. lt is also important to note that cities may also choose to combine these approaches. Coronado, for example, caps the number of formula businesses that are restaurants (no more than 10 at one time) and treats formula businesses that are retail stores as a conditional use.
Should the City Council direct staff to return with options for initiating an ordinance to establish restrictions on formula businesses, choosing the legislative approach determined by the Council to be appropriate for Carpinteria will be a part of the process.
Definino Formtila Busrnesses and Tvnes of Businesses Reoulated Although definitions for formula businesses differ slightly among the various cities and counties with formula business ordinances in effect, a formula business is generally defined as a business that has at least 5 (or 10, or 20, etc.) other existing locations nationwide (at the time of application) and some or all of the following features: a standardized menu, d6cor, uniforms, fagade, etc. across the locations; standardized merchandise; standardized signage, trademark, or othenruise recognizable appearance.s Ordinances also vary in the types of formula businesses that are prohibited or subject to additional requirements. Several cities, including Carmel-by-the-Sea, Pacific Grove, and Coronado partially or fully prohibit formula fast-food restaurants (definitions for which commonly include restaurants that serve food primarily with disposable containers/utensils, serve food in a manner that allows customers to take and eat the food elsewhere, specialize in quick food service, etc.).e Solvang's ordinance specifically 8 See, e.g. City of Ojai Urgency Ordinance No. 919; San Francisco Planning Code $ 303.1 s /d.; see also Pacific Grove City Code 5 23.64.1!5.

prohibits formula restaurants from its village center1o, while cities like Coronado and Calistoga have separate anti-formula business and anti-formula restaurant ordinances.ll Geographic Scope of Requlations
Cities should also consider the geographic area within their communities that they wish to be subject to restrictions. Cities may establish formula business regulations on a citywide level, or may wish to limit restrictions to certain areas. Many cities focus their formula business restrictions on downtown areas or historic, art, or other special districts to preserve the character of the designated area.12 As an example, San Francisco has limited its formula business restrictions to its neighborhood business districts, allowing formula restaurants and retail stores to populate downtown core and tourist areas.13
Other Iools to Limit Businesses
Additionally, while some cities fully ban at least one type of formula business (most commonly big box stores and formula fast-food restaurants), many cities regulate targeted formula businesses by requiring conditional use permits, which allows for caseby-case review and consideration of proposed formula businesses.la Alternatively, cities may choose to limit the concentration or number of formula businesses that can obtain permits. Arcata, for example, allows no more than g formula restaurants total within the city at any point in time, and only up to 6 in certain neighborhoods.ls Other cities, such as Benicia and Sausalito, regulate by considering the concentration of formula businesses in a given block or district when reviewing the permit application for a proposed formula business.lo As another example, the City of Ojai requires formula businesses to apply for a conditional use permit from the city.iT Following these threshold decisions, an ordinance may be written to consider and weigh several factors, including aesthetics, overall character, economic or cultural benefit it brings to the community, how it impacts traffic, etc.
Existing formula businesses at the time an ordinance is passed may remain permitted as a nonconforming use, often with restrictions on intensification or expansion and requirements that any change to the nonconforming use must conform to the zoning 10 Solvang Municipal Code 5 !!-t2-7.

Other Common Factors to When Draftinq Re,sulations
. Limitations to square footage, or the length of the storefront; o Exernptions for specific types of formula businesses like banks, theaters, gas stations, and pharmacies;
o Exempting stretches of highway or other high traffic areas from the ordinance; o Accessibility to motorists or pedestrians; and
. Number of formula businesses on the same block.
More examples of language and other factors can be found in the table included at Attachment A.
Discussion of Citv's Primarv Commercial Zone Districts
When considering the appropriateness and desirability of formula business regulations within the City of Carpinteria, it is important to understand the City's commercial zone districts. The City has two primary commercial zone districts: Commercial Planned Development (CPD) and Central Business (CB) The City's Zoning Map is included as Attachment B.
The purpose of the CPD district is to provide appropriately located areas for office uses, retail stores, service establishments, and wholesale businesses, offering commodities and services required by residents of the City and its surrounding market area. The intent the CPD district is to promote high standards of site planning, architecture, and landscape design for office and commercial developments within the City.
The purpose of the CB district is to address the special needs of the City's central business district or commercial core. This area is often referred to as the City's "Downtown T". Because of the nature of existing commercial development in this area and the nonstandard configuration of existing lots, special landscaping and parking requirements are needed. The intent of the CB district is to provide flexibility and reasonable minimum requirements that reflect the special characteristics of the area.
While new structures and major renovations in both districts require a development plan, tenant improvements within existing structures require only building permits for interior renovations. Exterior changes would likely require a recommendation from the City's Architectural Review Board prior to any other required permits. Other department or Agency approvals (i.e., Environmental Health Department for food service, Fire Department for sprinklers, Sanitary District for grease traps, etc. may also be required). 18 Discretionary Land Use Controls, 5 8.73., Problems Posed by Formula Business Regulations - Nonconforming Stofus.

Report on Formula Business Restrictions
May 9,2022
Permitted commercial uses for both districts are detailed in the City's zoning code.
Other triggers for a development plan for a new tenant in an existing building include a circumstance where the parking requirement is increased (e.g., a change from general commercial to a restaurant or medical office) or if the new use would result in a concentration of certain uses as specified in Section 14.20.070, Nonconcentration of Certain Uses, in which case (and in accordance with CMC 14.20.070 and 14.62.040), a conditional use permit would be required in lieu of a development plan. ln both districts, adult-oriented businesses are permitted subject to the requirements of Chapter 14.71, Ad u lt-o rie nted B u s i nesses.
Additionally, a single retail store with a total square footage greater than twenty thousand square feet may be permitted in either zone with an approved conditlonal use permit granted by the City Council after a recommendation by the Planning Commission pursuant to chapter 14.20.045, Regulation of size of Retaitsfores.
Chapter 14.62.070 sets forth specialfindings for retail stores over 20,000 square feet that are required to be made in order to approve the conditional use permit:
1. The use and size of the development at the proposed location, enhances the balance of retail and service needs of residents and visitors, and promotes the concentration of use in the downtown area or an existing commercial node;
2. The proposed use will not result in an over-concentration of that type of retail use in a particular area such as a shopping center or commercial district;
3. The proposed use and development provides amenities, services and/or associated on-site or off-site improvements that enhance the unique small beach town character of the community;
4. The proposed use minimizes adverse impacts to traffic such that no existing intersection volume to capacity ratio will decrease by more than five percent, provided however, that no intersection level of service will degrade below a level of service C as defined in the circulation element;
5 Adequate parking is provided on-site by meeting without exceeding the standards set forth in CMC 14.54 and/or other allowed parking programs as provided in the Municipal Code;
6 The proposed development encourages alternative transportation by providing pedestrian and access amenities such as walkways, bus stops and bicycle racks; and
7. The proposed use will not materially adversely affect the economic welfare of the city, its commercial districts, or existing local retail providers based on evidence provided by the applicant and reviewed and accepted by the city.

The findings made during the enactment of CMC 14.20.045, Regulation of Size of Retail Sfores, included that the ordinance would "foster a competitive and diverse mix of retail establishments, promote a more efficient use of land, and facilitate a safe and comfortable pedestrian scale environment." Similar expanded findings could be made for an ordinance restricting formula businesses.
Gase Study: Citv of Oiai's Formula Business Ordinance
The City of Ojai has had a formula business ordinance in place since 2007 (Attachment C).1e Ojai's regulations define a "formula business" as a commercial business establishment, retail sales, or rental activity/establishment (including restaurants and hotels) with ten or more other establishments, and that contains at least two of the six listed features.20 The features include standardized array of merchandise or menu, standardized fagade, d6cor, uniforms/apparel, signage, and trademark or service mark.
The Ojai ordinance, like many others, does not ban formula businesses outright; instead, the regulations require a formula business to obtain a conditional use permit from the city prior to on-site establishment and operation. This allows the city some level of discretion in determining which formula businesses may establish a presence within the city. The ordinance includes additional limitations for certain types of businesses and establishes a complete ban on "fast-food" formula businesses. Ojai's regulations also limit the location, concentration, and size of a permitted formula business and require the city to consider the balance of small, medium, and large-sized businesses in the city and to carry out the ordinance in accordance with its goal - to "preserve and enhance the city's small town character" and ensure aesthetic integration of new businesses.
The City of Ojai recently passed a moratorium in 2021, extended through August, 2022, which added to the limitations set by the original code (Urgency Ordinance No. 920, Attachment D),. The moratorium is slightly more restrictive on formula businesses; namely, the moratorium changes the definition of a formula business to a business that has five or more establishments in total (rather than ten or more); and those establishments meet at least two of seven listed features. The additional feature added to the original six features named in the original ordinance is "standardized or collective marketing of the business including, but not limited to, via digital and online means, in conjunction with the other qualifying establishments."
The flexibility offered by this approach taken by the City of Ojai's regulations allows for increased discretion when reviewing proposed businesses for conditional use permits.
Limitations like those established in Ojai's regulations could be created in a way that could accommodate a business like Trader Joe's, which would likely qualify as a formula business but which many residents may be interested in attracting to their 1s Ojai Municipal Code S 10-2.1713

community. For example, allowing "chain" grocery stores only if they are under a certain square footage that would rule out larger box stores like Walmart or Target.
POLICY ISTENCY
Several Policies speak to providing for a range of business activities that are compatible with the City of Carpinteria's small beach town character.
Objective LU-3: Preserve the small beach town character of the built environment of Carpinteria, encouraging compatible revitalization and avoiding sprawl development at the City's edge.
Policy LU-3d: Establish a commercial sector that balances the retail and service needs of citizens and tourists.
Policy LU-39: Provide for a range of business activities that bring vitality, revenue, and employment to Carpinteria and are compatible with its small town character.
FINANCIAL CONSIDERATIONS
As identified in the Background section of this report, proliferation of formula businesses can have longterm economic consequences for a community. Low-margin businesses that meet the basic needs of surrounding neighborhoods, such as groceis and pharmacies, may be pushed out as rents rise and the area attracts more formula restaurants and other stores. Perhaps of greatest concern, formula businesses tend to be fair-weather friends and can disappear quickly when the economy contracts or their corporate strategy shifts. The risk of formula businesses resulting in a downtown or neighborhood business district losing its distinctive appeal and no longer offering opportunities for independent entrepreneurs could result in loss of customers, fewer business opportunities, and a decline in locally generated tax revenue.
LEGAL AND RISK MANAGEMENT CON DERATIONS
California has a well-established (and judicially upheld) history with formula business restrictions at a city and county level. ln addition to prominent big box store regulations,2l many cities of varying size across the state have enacted prohibitions against "chain" business, including formula retail stores, restaurants, and visitor amenities.
The legal challenges to anti-formula business ordinances have predominantly been constitutional challenges based on the dormant commerce and equal protection clauses.
21 CMC L4'2O.045 - Regulation of size of retail stores: A single retail store with a total square footage greater than twenty thousand square feet may be permitted in the CPD/CB zones if a conditional use permit is approved by the City Council after a recommendation from the planning Commission.

May 9,2022
To adequately pass rational basis review, a city should consider and articulate (in both its rulemaking and comment processes as well as in the final ordinance) the public welfare purpose(s) the ordinance is intended to serve, and specify how the established restrictions will serve those purposes.
These legitimate purposes must then be matched with a rational method of achieving the purposes - for example, limiting the size of businesses or considering their aesthetic appearance are rational means of preserving the character of a historic district within the city, or prohibiting large grocery stores and other retailers is a rational method of protecting local and smaller businesses. Depending on the city's concerns and the ordinance's stated purpose(s), other appropriate approaches may include regulating architectural features, materials, and colors; restricting size and location of signs; regulating the size and location of parking areas; and limiting hours of operation; which may be incorporated as standards stated in the ordinance or applied as conditions for permit approval.
OPTIONS
1. Receive and file the report and provide direction to staff as determined appropriate. For example, the City Council could direct staff to bring back an agenda matter appropriate for it to initiate City legislation concerning restrictions on formula stores.
2. Receive and file the report, The Council may determine to not initiate any action in response the report.

Upcoming Legislative Heari ngs
Home / Advocacy / Take Action / Upcoming Legislative Hearings Bills of rnterest to cities, April 27-May 5
Lawmakers are racing to meet an end-of-April deadline. Legislator must send any bills with fiscal impacts to appropriations committees by April 29 but will have little time to rest. Another important deadline is just around the corner, as committees must hear any non-fiscal bills introduced in their house by May 6.
Dozens of priority bills are up for consideration, including measures related to parking requirements, bridge funding, and an organic waste product database. A full list of upcoming meetings on bills of interest to cities is below this summary of priority bills.
Two similar proposals, SB 1067 (Portantino) and AB 2097 (Friedman), would sig nificantly restrict parking requirements within one half-mile of public transrt. Currently, the bills' authors define public transit as a high-quality transit corridor with a 15-minute interval, or a major transit stop, such as a ferry terminal or rapid transit stop, with 1S-minute intervals. Cal Cities opposes both measures.
Cal Cities supports AB 2120 (Ward), which would direct 55o/o of the bridge funds headed to California from the Infrastructure lnvestment and Jobs Act to local projects through a needs-based allocation. The bill would also require the state to maintain its current commitment of flexible federal highway funding for local bridges. lf enacted, these changes would increase the amount of federal funding available for local bridges from approximately $300 million annually to an estimated $800 million.
Lawmakers will also consider AB 1985 (Rivas, Robert), a Cal Citiessponsored bill that would help cities with their SB 1383 (Lara, 2016) procurement requirements. The measure would create an online database of organic waste products on the market across the state, allowing cities to connect directly with community members seeking organic waste products, such as compost or much.
Cal Cities opposes AB 2328 (Flora). As introduced, the bill would preempt cities from prohibiting or meaningfully regulating "home experience sharing units," private properties such as pools or basketball courts that are rented for short periods of time. AB 2328 creates a broad preemption that poses health, safety, and litigation risks. These types of short-term experience offerings are not yet widespread in California and more information is needed for state and local leaders to craft informed policies.
