Why electrify?
Transportation accounts for 41% of CA
emissions. Gas appliances account for 12%.

Reduce GHG Emissions
Gas appliances impact indoor air quality and
public health. Diesel exhaust is linked to
multiple serious conditions.

Better Health Outcomes
Every CCCE customer is on a pathway to
carbon-free energy by 2030. Switching from
gas to electric vehicles and appliances helps
our region finish the job.

LIBRARY BOARD OF TRUSTEES AGENDA STAFF REPORT
May 8, 2023

ITEM FOR LIBRARY BOARD OF TRUSTEES CONSIDERATION
May 2023 Community Library Update.

STAFF RECOMMENDATION
Receive and file the report.

Sample Motion: I move to receive and file the Community Library report.

BACKGROUND
The Carpinteria Community Library, established by Ordinance 747 June 14, 2021, and added to the Municipal Code, Chapter 2.38, also established a Library Board of Trustees (section 2.38.030) to meet at least once a month. (Attachment B)

DISCUSSION
We have hired our fourth part time Library Tech, who started May 1. The Library is now fully staffed. He is fluent in Spanish, will begin his Master's program in Library Science in the Fall, and has previous library experience. With Holden on board, 50% of the Library staff is fluent in Spanish.

In April, we had 39 program sessions, and five Outreach events, reaching more than 600 individuals.

Our Outreach Librarian has begun teaching the Spanish language computer literacy course, again and is using the new laptops paid for by the Friends of the Carpinteria Library. They are lightning fast and fun to use.

Our 12 Adult Literacy tutors have a full roster of learners (15) and it is a beautiful thing to see the library filled with learners and tutors working together. There are always many smiles and much laughter, lots of hard work and progress being made.

We are making plans for our next Tutor training, which is planned for June. We are LBOT Agenda
May 8, 2023
Page2
learning about the need and desire for literacy tutors for children and we are in the discovery phase of how many students need and want tutors.

The City Librarian and the Middle School Librarian have discussed ideas about summer outreach for students. We have a number of teachers from both Cana lino and Aliso Schools bringing in their classes of first through third grade students to the Library in order to become familiar with the library and staff, get a library card, and be encouraged to participate in the summer reading program.

The City Librarian was the Black Gold representative on the planning committee for the state-wide public library directors' forum, which took place in April via Zoom over three days. Library directors from all over California came together to discuss book challenges and censorship, strategic planning, and an equity assessment of State Library offerings to public libraries.

The City Librarian was part of the three day train the trainer course on racial equity.

Working with City colleagues from every department, the course was valuable regarding many aspects of conducting business as the City and in the Community Library.

Our circulation numbers more than doubled from April 2022.

In the library, on week day afternoons, many high school seniors can be found putting in their community service hours that are required to graduate. They are shelving books, relabeling DVDs, cleaning books, and organizing the shelves. What will we do without them when their community service hours have been completed? Library Advisory Commission meets monthly on the second Thursday of each month.

Monthly statistics are included in this report (Attachment A).

POLICY CONSISTENCY
The Library programs and resources are consistent with the 2022 Annual Work Plan and the actions of the City Council concerning the establishment of a municipal library.

FINANCIAL CONSIDERATIONS
There are no financial considerations at this time.

He noted that the second reading and adoption of the Ordinance was scheduled for April 24th; however, on April 17th the Ninth Circuit Court of Appeals issued a decision in the ruling of California Restaurant Association vs. City of Berkely, related to the City of Berkely’s prohibition on new natural gas connections in construction as being preempted by the Federal Energy Policy and Conservation Act of 1975. He stated in light of this decision and to let the court process unfold, staff recommends deferral of the second reading of this ordinance until the reach code working group can coordinate on whether revisions to the City’s, County’s, and City of Goleta’s City Council Regular Meeting Minutes
April 24, 2023

potential proposed ordinances are required in response to this decision or alternative language that could be proposed, or whether they can move forward with the ordinance as approved.

• Include a review process for the private sector outdoor space permits. • Cost recovery of 0% - City covers all costs.

City Council Regular Meeting Minutes
April 24, 2023

• City would be the owner of parklets and lease to the businesses. • Power could be supplied via overhead to the parklets. • Roof element should be looked at to include something that appears clear, even though it may be a solid roof type, include trellises and things like that. • Not grandfather in the existing parklets and at the end of the calendar year take a look at those to decide if the Council will go with a City-approved design; existing parklets would be able to stay in place until the Council makes an effective date which would be the end of this calendar year.

City Manager Durflinger requested clarification on the lease rate. Councilmember Nomura said he did not mention a lease rate though it would include overhead and any expenses the City would incur. City Manager Durflinger specified that staff has not done much work on the lease rate because that was not a recommendation of the Finance Committee. He stated that staff could come back with scenarios of payback under a lease program, such as two years, five years, or ten years which would establish a lease rate and the cost recovery on an upfront purchase cost of say $16,000.

The Council briefly discussed the financial aspects of the parklets.

Councilmember Nomura modified the motion to:
• Extend the temporary program time to the end of this calendar year (December 2023).
• Include a review process for the private sector outdoor space permits. • Cost recovery of 0% - City covers all costs.
• City would be the owner of parklets and lease to the businesses. • Power could be supplied via overhead to the parklets. • Roof element should be looked at to include something that appears clear, even though it may be a solid roof type, include trellises and things like that. • Not grandfather in the existing parklets and at the end of the calendar year take a look at those to decide if the Council will go with a City-approved design; existing parklets would be able to stay in place until the Council makes an effective date which would be the end of this calendar year.
• Direct staff to come back with recommendations.

Councilmember Lee seconded the modified motion.

The Council briefly discussed the parklet roof element and whether it was a part of the design guidelines.

City Manager Durflinger summarized the modified motion with Councilmember Nomura’s assistance as follows:

City Council Regular Meeting Minutes
April 24, 2023

• Extend the temporary program through the end of the year (involves staff bringing back an ordinance for the Council to approve for both public parklet and private outdoor area program).
• Staff will come back with scoping for guidelines and what a private sector program would look like.
• Staff will return to the City Council after studying the financial component of the parklets (i.e. cost recovery and subsidy); the Council will wait for the cost recovery study and the consultant’s recommendation and the Council will decide at that time what the appropriate cost recovery would be.
• Staff will amend the language for the roofing material and how to provide electrical power to the parklets and let the Council consider the amended language at a future meeting.
• There will be no grandfathering of existing parklets and closer to the end of the year staff will bring back to Council for reconsideration based on where the City is at and assuming by that time the Council will have approved a parklet program. • Staff will bring back information on the pros and cons of leasing, renting or selling the parklets to the private business owners for the Council to consider. It will include how liability metes out, what a lease agreement could do to protect the City or not, and the practical aspects of the City owning the parklets versus letting the businesses own the parklets.

COUNCIL AGENDA STAFF REPORT
May 8, 2023

ITEM FOR COUNCIL CONSIDERATION
Second reading of Ordinance No. 765, an Ordinance of the City Council of the City of Carpinteria, amending Carpinteria Municipal Code Sections 8.20 and 12.24 pertaining to public sleeping and camping.

STAFF RECOMMENDATION

1. Adopt Ordinance No. 765 (second reading), amending CMC Sections 8.20 and

12.24; and

2. Find that approval and adoption of Ordinance No. 765 is exempt from CEQA pursuant to Sections 15060(c)(2), 15060(c)(3), and 15061 (b)(3) of the CEQA Guidelines.

Sample Motion: I move to (1) adopt Ordinance No. 765 (second reading); and (2) find that approval and adoption of Ordinance No. 765 is exempt from CEQA pursuant to Sections 15060(c)(2), 15060(c)(3), and 15061 (b)(3) of the CEQA Guidelines.

BACKGROUND
The City of Carpinteria ("City") currently prohibits persons from sleeping, camping, or lodging on public and private property in the City, subject to exceptions for designated places or where the owner of the property has granted permission. This prohibition is set forth in Carpinteria Municipal Code ("CMC") Sections 8.20 and 12.24 (collectively, the "No Camping Regulations").

Recent case law, including Martin v. City of Boise ("Martin") and Johnson v. City of Grants Pass ("Grants Pass'), has addressed what constitutes permissible enforcement of local agencies' prohibitions on camping and has constrained local agencies' ability to regulate and prohibit camping within their jurisdictions. Specifically, these judicial decisions largely prohibit enforcement of no camping regulations against homeless persons when there is not available shelter.
25608954.2
No Camping Regulations
May 8, 2023

The City has not updated the No Camping Regulations since these recent judicial decisions were published, and the current version of the No Camping Regulations does not include the carve-outs and caveats to enforceability that were created in the recent case law. The amendments proposed in Ordinance No. 765 are intended to bring the CMC into better alignment with these decisions and to increase the City's ability to legally enforce the No Camping Regulations.

DISCUSSION
The purpose of this agenda matter is for the City Council to adopt Ordinance No. 765, which is attached as Attachment A and is identical to the version approved by City Council on April 24, 2023 at its first reading.

Ordinance No. 765 amends CMC Section 8.20 such that (i) the prohibition on camping shall not be enforceable against homeless persons when there is no available shelter, subject to limited exceptions, and (ii) the penalty for a violation of CMC Section 8.20 is only a misdemeanor or an infraction, and violators receive a warning and referral to services prior to citation. The exceptions where CMC Section 8.20 is enforceable against a homeless person without access to shelter are where there is a substantial danger to any person, where there is an immediate threat and/or an unreasonable risk of harm to public health or safety, and where there is a disruption to vital government services. Ordinance No. 765 also amends CMC Section 12.24 so that the prohibition on camping therein is subject to the limitations in CMC Section 8.20.

The proposed amendments to the No Camping Regulations are necessary to bring the CMC into alignment with recent case law. The proposed exceptions that would allow the No Camping Regulations to be enforceable against homeless persons without shelter access in limited situations are necessary for the City to promote and protect public health, safety, and general welfare of its citizenry.

POLICY CONSIDERATIONS
The proposed ordinance amending the No Camping Regulations is consistent with the City aligning the CMC and City policies and procedures with changes in the law. Further, updating the No Camping Regulations is part of the City's response to homelessness and is thus consistent with the City's interest in promoting public health and safety and with Resolution No. 6038, concerning the Community Action Plan to Address Homelessness in Santa Barbara County.

FINANCIAL CONSIDERATIONS
There are no direct financial considerations related to this item. 25608954.2
No Camping Regulations
May 8, 2023

ENVIRONMENTAL CONSIDERATIONS
Ordinance No. 765 is exempt from review under CEQA in accordance with CEQA Guidelines section 15060(c)(2), which applies where an activity will not result in a direct or reasonably foreseeable indirect physical change in the environment; section 15060(c)(3), which applies where an activity is not a "project" as defined in section 15378 of the CEQA Guidelines; and section 15061(b)(3), which applies where it can be seen with certainty that there is no possibility that the activity in question may have a significant effect on the environment.

LEGAL AND RISK MANAGEMENT CONSIDERATIONS
The enforcement of ordinances and regulations like the City's No Camping Regulations is an evolving area of law. Given the evolving nature, there is some risk that the law could be further refined or modified by the courts such that the City's No Camping Regulations, as amended by Ordinance No. 765, become outdated. Regardless, the proposed amendments are necessary to better align the CMC with the current law in this area. There may be a need for additional amendments in the future as this area of law continues to progress.

OPTIONS

1. Adopt Ordinance No. 765 (second reading).

2. Direct staff to make changes to Ordinance No. 765.

3. Reject Ordinance No. 765.

PRINCIPAL PARTIES EXPECTED AT MEETINGS
There are no principal parties expected at the meeting.

ATTACHMENT A
ORDINANCE NO. 765

AN ORDINANCE OF THE CITY COUNCIL OF THE CITY OF CARPINTERIA, CALIFORNIA, AMENDING CHAPTERS 8.20 AND 12.24 OF THE CARPINTERIA

MUNICIPAL CODE
WHEREAS, within the City of Carpinteria ("City") and other cities in the surrounding region, and throughout the State of California, there is a significant number of people experiencing homelessness;
WHEREAS, homeless persons sometimes camp, sleep, or lodge on public or private property, particularly if they have no other place to sleep; WHEREAS, camping in undesignated places can create unsanitary, unhealthy, disorderly, and dangerous conditions that may affect both the campers and the general public; WHEREAS, the Legislature of the State of California has, in Government Code sections 65302, 65560, and 65800, conferred upon local governments the authority to adopt regulations designed to promote the public health, safety, and general welfare of its citizenry; WHEREAS, in accordance with Government Code sections 65302, 65560, and 65800, the City currently prohibits sleeping and camping except in designated places pursuant to Carpinteria Municipal Code ("CMC") Chapter 8.20 and camping or lodging within parks and beaches except in designated areas pursuant to CMC Chapter 12.24;
WHEREAS, recently, various courts have analyzed enforcement of local agency regulations similar to those codified in CMC Chapters 8.20 and 12.24 and have held that enforcement of such regulations against homeless persons who do not have access to shelter may constitute a violation of the Eighth Amendment to the U.S. Constitution's prohibition on cruel and unusual punishment;
WHEREAS, notwithstanding the recent case law, there are camping situations that create a substantial danger or risk of harm that requires immediate removal of the camper and personal property in order to prevent substantial harm to individuals, the health and/or safety of the public, and/or the City's vital government services. For example, persons camping, sleeping, or lodging in, on, or adjacent to critical infrastructure can result in damage or destruction of the infrastructure, which in tum can result in substantial adverse public health and safety impacts, including delayed emergency response times, interrupted utility services, and injuries to persons and property; WHEREAS, the City, in consultation with legal counsel, has determined that CMC Chapters 8.20 and 12.24 require updates in order to better align with recent case law. However, it is critical that the City still be able to remove encampments and campers that endanger human lives, public health and safety, and vital government services; WHEREAS, this Ordinance intends to prohibit unconstitutional enforcement of CMC Chapters 8.20 and 12.24 against homeless persons without access to shelter, but expressly acknowledges that enforcement may be needed in some situations in order to promote public health, safety, and welfare;
25610434.1
Ordinance No. 765

WHEREAS, it has been determined that amending the CMC as provided for in this Ordinance is within the City's best interest; and
WHEREAS, the City acknowledges that homelessness continues to remain a dynamic and evolving issue within the City and the surrounding region that requires coordinated efforts by the City, the County of Santa Barbara, the State of California, the Federal Government, and regional partners.

NOW THEREFORE, THE CITY COUNCIL OF THE CITY OF CARPINTERIA DOES ORDAIN AS FOLLOWS:

SECTION 1. Recitals Incorporated.

The above recitals are incorporated herein and are each relied upon independently by the City Council in its adoption of this Ordinance.

COUNCIL AGENDA STAFF REPORT
May 8, 2023

ITEM FOR COUNCIL CONSIDERATION
Selection of an Executive Search firm for the City Manager position and formation of an ad hoc committee of the City Council to work with the consultant.

STAFF RECOMMENDATION

1. Take one of the following actions concerning acquiring the services of an Executive Search firm:

A. Select a consultant from the remaining list, i.e., CPS or Raftelis; or B. Form an ad hoc committee to review the remaining consultant proposals/conduct interviews, etc., and make a recommendation; or C. Direct staff to solicit new consultant proposals.

2. Form an ad hoc committee of the City Council to work with the Executive Search firm consultant in drafting key recommendations for Council consideration.

Sample Motion: I move to:

1. Choose one:

A. Select a consultant from the remaining list, i.e., CPS or Raftelis; or B. Form an ad hoc committee to review the remaining consultant proposals/conduct interviews, etc., and make a recommendation; or C. Direct staff to solicit new consultant proposals.

2. Form an ad hoc committee of the City Council consisting of Councilmember _____ and , to work with the selected Executive Search firm in drafting an ideal candidate profile and other key recommendations for Council consideration.

BACKGROUND
The City Council initiated a process to hire its next City Manager. On March 13 the City Council formed the City Manager Succession Process Ad Hoc Committee (Committee), comprised of Vice Mayor Alarcon and Councilmember Nomura. On March 27, the City Council approved the Committee's recommendation to retain an executive search firm to assist it in seeking proposals from various executive search firms. The action of the Council included approval of a short list of executive search firms to be contacted. The Executive Search Consultant Selection
May 8, 2023

City received proposals from RGS, Raftelis, Peckham & McKenney, and CPS HR Consulting.

The City Council on April 24th selected RGS as the recruitment firm to find a successor city manager. However, since then, RGS has decided to decline the City Manager recruitment project and Peckham & McKenney has informed the City that it no longer has the capacity to take on the work.

The purpose of this agenda matter is for the Council to receive and act on the recommendations of staff regarding the process to select a recruitment consultant.

DISCUSSION
Considering the Council's stated interest in participating in the selection of the recruitment consultant, the City Council may at this meeting evaluate the proposals received from Raftelis and CPS HR Consulting, included in Attachment A and summarized in Attachment B and select a consultant.

Alternately, the City Council may consider forming an ad hoc committee to review the remaining consultant proposals, conduct interviews and bring a recommendation to the City Council for a recruitment consultant. In this context, the Council could also elect to solicit additional proposals. Soliciting additional proposals could provide the benefit of allowing consultants to participate that have (in the case of Peckham & McKenney), or may have (in the case of other consultants that did not submit proposals) not participated in the City's process due to having a full plate at this time.

In any case, should the Council elect to form an ad hoc committee, for process efficiency, the committee could work with the recruiter going forward to draft a candidate profile and other core tasks for Council consideration. This would provide greater efficiency than doing this work at regular Council meeting(s).

Finally, given the current City Manager's early December retirement date and the necessary steps/work identified in the schedule (Attachment C), soliciting additional proposals raises the prospect of the need for Council to consider an interim appointment or hire to fill the City Manager position while the recruitmenUhiring process is completed.

POLICY CONSISTENCY
The recommendations may be found consistent with the City's 2023 Annual Work Plan under the General Government Program: Staff Recruitment & Retention.

FINANCIAL CONSIDERATIONS
The Fiscal Year 2022/23 Budget includes a line-item allocation of $25,000 that would be sufficient for work conducted through June 30. An additional allocation will be included G:\Olivia\Workplan\Successor Committee\Carp Staff Report - Consultant Recommendation ll_fin.docx Executive Search Consultant Selection
May 8, 2023

in the Fiscal Year 2024/24, sufficient to address any remaining costs related to the recruitment.

LEGAL AND RISK MANAGEMENT CONSIDERATIONS
The City attorney has been consulted on this course of action and has confirmed no legal or risk management considerations.

OPTIONS
A. Select a consultant from the remaining list, i.e., CPS and Raftelis, or B. Form an ad hoc committee to review the remaining consultant proposals/conduct interviews, etc., and make a recommendation; or
C. Direct staff to solicit new consultant proposals
D. Decline to act at this time and direct staff as determined appropriate.

EXECUTIVE SEARCH STRATEGY Ri\FTEUS
Executive Search Strategy
When organizations need to fill key positions, they turn to Raftelis and benefit from this guiding principle: meaningful hiring involves finding the right employee and preparing them for ongoing success. Our approach to executive search services comprises three key phases.

Inquiring, Understanding, and Defining
Each of our clients has a unique culture and set of objectives. Because selecting the right individual is critical to success, we begin our relationship by conducting a needs assessment to identify the specific benchmarks the search must accomplish. We will identify qualifications and requirements as well as map out the new hire's first-year goals, so both our client and the employee remain on the same track for success. We will build an accurate position profile, thus ensuring we attract the right people for the position.

Candidate Search and Evaluation
To reach the right candidates, Raftelis customizes each search process to fit the client's needs. Often, the professionals who best fit an open position are already employed and not searching for a traditional job posting. So, we leverage our extensive, diverse professional network to attract the best talent nationwide. We have been successful in identifying a candidate pool that is racially, ethnically, and gender diverse. We are committed to helping local government leadership positions reflect the communities they serve. We work closely with several organizations that support this goal, and we advertise in national publications that target people of color and women, including the National Forum of Black Public Administrators (NFBP A), Local Government Hispanic Network, and the League of Women in Government. We intentionally seek well-qualified women and people of color, so our clients have excellent choices. Once the right candidates are found, we help manage the hiring process from interviews to background checks. Our in-depth service empowers clients to achieve their goals at every step.

Supporting Success
We support the top candidate's long-term success by creating a goals-driven work plan actionable from day one. Many firms focus solely on finding qualified applicants, leaving the client on their own once the position is filled. Our team, however, uses the objectives gathered during the inquiry stage to prepare new hires for their first year. We follow up to ensure continued progress, productivity, and satisfaction for the employee and our client.

We take a tailored, goals-based approach to each recruitment. By looking beyond the hiring process, our holistic view ensures that each candidate will fit the role as well as the organization. In the end, we are not just looking for a successful professional; we are finding the right employee to be successful in their new position long after they are hired.

WORK PLAN RAFTELIS 5
Work Plan

THE FOLLOWING PROVIDES A DETAILED DESCRIPTION OF OUR WORK PLAN FOR THE CITY MANAGER RECRUITMENT.

Activity 1 - Develop Candidate Profile
We will begin this engagement by developing a clear picture of the ideal candidate for this position. We will first meet with members of the City Council individually and as a group to discuss the recruitment timeline and process. We will also facilitate a meeting with the City Manager and the department head/leadership team group, as well as facilitate an online key stakeholder focus group. If desired, for an additional fee, we can conduct community engagement through an online survey. We will discuss not just the technical skills needed for the position, but what makes for the right organizational fit in terms of traits and experiences.

Based on the information learned from our meetings, we will develop a recruitment plan that includes California and the nation. We will prepare a position profile that is unique to the City of Carpinteria. The profile will identify the organization's needs, the strategic challenges of the position, and the personal and professional characteristics of the ideal candidate. This document drives the recruitment. It focuses our efforts on the most capable candidates, and it helps us to persuade candidates to pursue the position. We will develop a recruitment brochure for advertising the position which includes the position profile, as well as information on the organization, the City, and the community. We will work with the City to eliminate barriers to underrepresented groups, including years of service, levels of education, and other strict requirements that might eliminate someone who can do the job.

We will also develop first-year organizational goals for the successful candidate. These goals will ensure that the applicants know what will be expected of them should they be hired, the City has thought about what it wants the person to accomplish in the first year, and the successful candidate can hit the ground running with a work plan. Once drafted, we will review the recruitment plan, position profile, and first-year goals with the hiring manager. Modifications will be made as necessary before recruitment begins.

DELIVERABLES:
• Detailed recruitment process documents, including recruitment plan, position profile, recruitment brochure, and first-year goals
Activity 2 - Conduct Outreach and Initial Screening
As part of the recruitment plan, we will identify key states and metro areas to focus our targeted recruitment. We will prepare and place advertisements in state and national publications and websites to attract candidates from throughout the United States. While this will be a national search, we will target our efforts to those key areas identified in the recruitment plan. We understand the importance of having a diverse applicant pool, so our recruitment strategy includes a robust outreach strategy to identify and attract well qualified individuals from underrepresented groups and encouraging them to apply. In our outreach, we ensure we place job postings in places that target women, minorities, and other underrepresented groups. We also utilize our networks across the country to find and attract well qualified candidates from a variety of backgrounds to apply and be considered. In addition, our recruiters have participated in conferences like NFBPA and Engaging Local Government Leaders (ELGL) for networking, a Diversity, Equity, and Inclusion cohort RAF"rl:LiS 6
through International City/County Management Association (ICMA), and several leadership academies for women in local government in different states.

We will place job postings with ICMA, Western City, California League of Cities, and other places as identified in the recruitment plan. We also recommend national organizations such as ELGL, NFBPA, and Local Government Hispanic Network to attract underrepresented groups and provide a more diverse applicant pool. We will also reach out to historically black colleges and universities and other targeted alumni networks that have graduates from diverse backgrounds and ask them to share our postings.

As soon as the advertisements are completed, we will begin the process of actively and aggressively marketing the position and identifying qualified candidates for assessment. We will pinpoint individuals and jurisdictions to reach out to directly through phone and email. We will also utilize social media (Linkedln, Twitter, and Face book) to broaden our reach. We have found that this combination of outreach is an effective way to reach top applicants, especially those who are not currently in the job market but may be willing to consider a move to an excellent organization like the City of Carpinteria.

We will reach out to the applicants in our extensive database as well as the prospective candidates we have targeted in previous recruitments for similar jurisdictions. We will also develop a list of additional candidates to pursue based on the City's unique needs. Our outreach includes seeking well-qualified women, people of color, and individuals from other underrepresented groups and encouraging them to apply.

As applications are received, we will acknowledge each one and keep applicants aware of the status of the process. We will screen each applicant against the position profile and first-year goals. We will conduct interviews via phone or videoconference with those who most closely meet the profile to learn more about their interest, qualifications, and experience for this position. A written summary of these candidates will be prepared and shared with the City. We will then meet with the City to review the entire list (if desired) as well as the most qualified candidates who have the requisite skills, experiences, and traits needed for success in the position. Based on the City's direction, we will finalize a list of candidates to invite for in-person interviews.

DELIVERABLES
• Placement of ads and job postings
• Targeted outreach to passive candidates
• Candidate review materials including screening results and internet search Activity 3 - Support Interviews and Selection
Each person you wish to interview will then be contacted again by our recruitment team. We will plan and facilitate a multi-step interview process specific to the position. The process could include writing exercises, presentations, panel interviews, tours, and a department director or key staff meet-and-greet. A book that contains customized interview questions and information about each of the candidates invited to interview will be provided to those involved in the interview process. We will also facilitate pre- and post-interview briefings.

We will coordinate the logistics of the process and provide the candidates with the details along with any travel policy requirements or other information. We will also work with a City contact to ensure a suitable venue is arranged for the interviews. Expenses for the candidates will be borne and reimbursed directly by the City.

The City will select the top candidate. We can help make a well-informed choice by framing what we have learned about the candidates in the context of the position and its requirements. We will speak with candidates' references to confirm RA.FTELIS 7
the strength of their credentials. We will also conduct a media check to review published information found in search engines, online publications, and social media. Reference and background checks will be performed on the top candidates, including but not limited to education, credentials, employment history, criminal background check, civil litigation check, and credit history.

We also can assist in negotiating the employment offer. We will provide information about best practices in salary and total compensation, and we will have obtained information on the candidate's salary. We will keep candidates apprised of their status and release them at the appropriate time.

DELIVERABLES
• Interview book materials including references and background checks Recruitment Timeline

Proposal to the City of Carpinteria
Executive Recruitment for City Manager
Our Approach and Methodology
Our Project Approach
Key Stakeholder Involvement
The City Council (Council) on behalf of the City of Carpinteria must be intimately involved in the search for a new City Manager. Our approach assumes their direct participation in key phases of the search process. At the discretion of the City Council, other key stakeholders may also be invited to provide input for the development of the candidate profile.

City's Needs
A critical first step in a successful executive search is for the City Council to define the professional and personal qualities required of the City Manager. CPS HR has developed a very effective process that will permit the City Council to clarify the preferred future direction for the City; the specific challenges the City is likely to face in achieving this future direction; the working style and organizational climate the City Council wishes to establish with the City Manager; and ultimately, the professional and personal qualities required of the City Manager.

Commitment to Communication
Throughout the recruitment process, we are committed to keeping you fully informed of our progress. We will collaborate with you to provide updates on the status of the recruitment via your preferred method of communication (phone conference, email, etc.). We place the highest level of importance on customer service and responding in a timely manner to all client and candidate inquiries. Our previous clients and candidates have expressed a sincere appreciation for our level of service and responsiveness to the management of the recruitment process. As a result, we have many long-term relationships with clients that have led to opportunities to assist them with multiple recruitments. CPS HR's communication continues once you have selected the new City Manager. We will contact the City Council and the newly appointed City Manager within six months of appointment to ensure an effective transition has occurred.

Aggressive, Proactive, and Robust Recruitment
We take an aggressive approach in identifying and recruiting the best available candidates. There are those candidates who would gladly rise to the professional challenge and apply for this position; however, some of the best candidates are often not actively seeking a new position and may only consider a change once we present them with your opportunity. Evoking the sense of vision and opportunity in qualified persons is among the responsibilities of CPS HR, and we pride ourselves in our efforts to reach the best available potential candidates. We use advertisements, directly email the outreach brochure, post messages and connect with potential candidates on business media such as Linkedln, and of course, pick up the phone and call qualified individuals and referral sources.

Phase I: Our consultant will meet with the City Council to ascertain the City's needs and ideal candidate attributes, to target our search efforts, and maximize candidate fit with the City.

Phase II: The recruitment process is tailored to fit the City's specific wants and needs, with targeted advertising, combined with contacts with qualified individuals from our extensive database.

Phase I - Develop Candidate Profile and Recruitment

Task 1 - Review and Finalize Executive Search Process and Schedule Task 2 - Key Stakeholder Meetings
Task 3 - Candidate Profile and Recruitment Strategy Development Task 4- Develop Recruitment Brochure
The first step in this engagement is a thorough review of the City's needs, culture and goals; the executive search process; and the schedule. CPS HR is prepared to meet with key stakeholders to obtain input in developing the ideal candidate profile and to assist us in understanding key issues and challenges that will face a new City Manager. Activities will include:
■ Identifying key priorities for the new City Manager and the conditions and challenges likely to be encountered in achieving these priorities. ■ Describing the type of working relationship the City Council wishes to establish with the City Manager.

CPS HR ..... - CONSULTING
Page I 8
Proposal to the City of Carpinteria
Executive Recruitment for City Manager
■ Generating lists of specific competencies, experiences, and personal attributes needed by the new City Manager in light of the discussions above. ■ Discussing recruitment and selection strategies for the City Council's consideration to best produce the intended results.

CPS HR will provide a summary to the City stemming from these activities as an additional source of information for developing the candidate profile and selection criteria.

Following the completion of the workshop session, CPS HR will work with a professional graphic artist to design a recruitment brochure and present it to the City for review. Please refer to Appendix A for a sample brochure. Additional brochure examples are available on our website at www .cpsh r. us/recruitment-solutions/ executive-search.

Phase II - Aggressive, Proactive, and Robust
Recruitment
Task 1- Place Advertisements
Task 2 - Identify and Contact Potential Candidates
Task 3- Resume Review and Screening Interviews
Task 4 - City Council Selects Finalists
The recruitment process is tailored to fit the City's specific wants and needs, with targeted advertising, combined with personal contacts with qualified individuals from our extensive database.

CPS HR will prepare, submit for your approval, and publish advertisements on professional and affiliate websites to attract candidates on a nationwide, regional, local or targeted basis based on the recruitment strategy.

As a consulting firm that interacts with hundreds of public sector executives during engagements, we have a cadre of individuals who we inform of recruitments, both to increase the visibility of the opening and to attract appropriate individuals who fit the special needs of our client.

Communication with these professionals ensures that an accurate picture of the requirements of the job is apparent and proliferated throughout their professional networks.

CPS HR is focused on reaching a diverse candidate pool and would recommend publications/websites that are targeted to minority and female candidates. In addition to placing ads on websites aimed at minority candidates, we will contact leaders within appropriate associations to gain their insight and referrals of possible candidates.

CPS HR .,... CONSULTING
Proposal to the City of Carpinteria
Executive Recruitment for City Manager
Within the past three years, more than 57% of our executive level placements have been minority and/or female candidates.

CPS HR will prepare an email distribution list containing prospective candidates and referral sources. These individuals will receive a link to the City Manager brochure along with a personal invitation to contact CPS HR should they have any questions about the position.

CPS HR maintains a comprehensive, up-to-date database of industry leaders and experienced professionals; however, we do not rely solely upon our current database. We also conduct research to target individuals relevant to your specific needs and expectations to ensure that we are thorough in our efforts to market this position to the appropriate audience and to garner a diverse and quality pool of candidates. We will:
■ Convey a strong sense of the purpose and strategy of the City. For many talented individuals, understanding these aspects is one of the key motivators to compete in such an environment.
■ Provide guidance and resources to candidates regarding the area's cost of living, mean and median housing prices, higher education opportunities, K-12 education information, and other aspects of interest to those who are considering relocating to the area. ■ Actively seek highly qualified candidates who may be attracted by the prospect of collaboration with other departments, providing exceptional leadership to the City or continuing to ensure the public confidence in the integrity of the City.

CPS HR will directly receive and initially screen all resumes. This screening process is specifically designed to assess the personal and professional attributes the City is seeking and will include a thorough review of each candidate's resume, and if applicable, supplemental questionnaire responses and other supporting materials. CPS HR will personally speak to selected candidates during a preliminary screening interview and will spend extensive time ascertaining each candidate's long-term career goals and reasons why the candidate is seeking this opportunity, as well as gaining a solid understanding of the candidate's technical competence and management philosophy. We will gather data on any other unique aspects specific to this recruitment based upon the candidate profile, as well as conduct internet research on each candidate interviewed.

CPS HR will prepare a written report that summarizes the results of the recruitment process and recommends candidates for further consideration by the City Council. Typically, the report will recommend five to eight highly qualified candidates and will include resumes and a profile on each interviewee's background. CPS HR will meet with the City Council to review this report and to assist them in selecting a group of finalists for further evaluation.

Executive Recruitment for City Manager
Phase Ill - Selection
Task 1 - Design Selection Process
Task 2 - Administer Selection Process
Task 3 - Final Preparation for Appointment
Task 4 - Contract Negotiation (if requested)
CPS HR will design a draft selection process based on information gathered in Phase I. We will meet with the City to review this process and discuss the City's preferred approach in assessing the final candidates. The selection process will typically include an in-depth interview with each candidate but may also include other selection assessments such as an oral presentation, preparation of written materials, and/or problem-solving exercises.

We will coordinate all aspects of the selection process for the City. This includes preparing appropriate materials such as interview questions, evaluation manuals, and other assessment exercises; facilitating the interviews; assisting the City with deliberation of the results; and contacting both successful and unsuccessful candidates.

Following the completion of the selection process, CPS HR will be available to complete the following components:
■ Arrange Follow-up Interviews/Final Assessment Process: Should the City wish to arrange follow-up interviews and/or conduct a final assessment in order to make a selection, CPS HR will coordinate this effort.
■ Conduct In-Depth Reference Checks: The in-depth reference checks are a comprehensive 360-degree evaluation process whereby we speak with current and previous supervisors, peers, and direct reports. (It is our policy to not contact current supervisors until a job offer is made, contingent upon that reference being successfully completed, so as not to jeopardize the candidates' current employment situation.) Candidates are requested to provide a minimum of six references. CPS HR is able to ascertain significant, detailed information from reference sources due to our commitment to each individual of confidentiality, which leads to a willingness to have an open and candid discussion and results in the best appointment for the City. A written (anonymous) summary of the reference checks is provided to the City.
■ Conduct Background Checks: Upon a conditional job offer, we will arrange for a background check of a candidate's records on driving, criminal and civil court, credit history, education, published news, and other sensitive items. Should any negative or questionable content appear during these checks, CPS HR will have a thorough discussion with the finalist(s) and will present a full picture of the situation to the City for further review.

This included preparing recruitment profiles and brochures, screening candidates and creating a list of top candidates for the elected officials, developing interview questions, managing assessment centers, conducting background checks, and negotiating employment offers. His most recent large recruitment was for the police chief of Tinley Park which included a day long assessment center.

City Manager Succession Process Committee

Revised City Manager Recruitment Proposals
The City of Carpinteria received four proposals from consulting groups, namely Regional Government Services (RGS), Raftelis, Peckham & McKenney, and CPS HR Consulting (CPS), to conduct or assist in the City Manager Recruitment. Since the last Council meeting, RGS has withdrawn their proposal and Peckham & McKenney has informed the City that it no longer has the capacity to take on the work.

The proposed timeline for recruitment by all remaining groups is between 10-14 weeks, with the average timeframe being 13 weeks from contract execution. All proposals outlined a similar recruitment process, which involves meeting with the city, understanding the city's needs, developing candidate profiles and recruitment strategies, carrying out the recruitment, interviewing candidates, selecting a candidate, and helping with negotiating and developing a contract. All proposals emphasized the importance of casting a wide net and including diverse candidates.

Details of each phase of the, Raftelis, and CPS processes are provided on pages 5-7, and 8-11, respectively. While all proposals are similar, there are a few notable differences. Raftelis includes Jim Armstrong, a former Santa Barbara City Manager with knowledge of Carpinteria and the region, among its group of recruiters. Additionally, Raftelis is the only group that offers a community engagement option at an additional cost. CPS notes in its proposal that its project team is prepared to begin work 60 days after executing the contract.

The cost of a full recruitment ranges from $30,000 to $37,500, excluding any travel costs associated with the candidates, which may be incurred by the City. For a detailed comparison of the proposals, refer to the chart and the full proposals.

COUNCIL AGENDA STAFF REPORT
May 8, 2023

ITEM FOR COUNCIL CONSIDERATION
2023 Annual Report on efforts to assist people experiencing homelessness in Carpinteria and address issues related to homelessness in the community.

STAFF RECOMMENDATION
Receive the annual report concerning ongoing efforts to assist people experiencing homelessness and to address issues related to homelessness in the community.

BACKGROUND
Local response to the ongoing national crisis of homelessness continues to be a service area priority in Santa Barbara County, including Carpinteria.

The County of Santa Barbara Community Services Department, Housing and Community Development Division, has preliminary results of the 2023 Point in Time (PIT) Count of persons experiencing homelessness, conducted on February 23, 2022 by the Santa Maria/Santa Barbara County Continuum of Care (CoC). The PIT Count is mandated by the federal Department of Housing and Urban Development and serves as a snapshot of homelessness in the county on a single night. County staff in the Housing and Community Development Division and CoC Board Members provided oversight of the PIT Count working with Simtech Solutions 1and more than 400 volunteers. The County of Santa Barbara serves as the lead agency and Administrative Entity for the Coe.

Countywide, 1,887 persons were counted representing a decrease of 3.7% in the number of persons experiencing homelessness. The count includes 1,202 persons experiencing unsheltered homelessness and 685 persons living in emergency shelters or transitional housing. In Carpinteria, 23 persons experiencing homelessness were counted.
1 Simtech Solutions Inc. is a cause-driven technology services provider with a passion for developing innovative technologies to help people experiencing homelessness. Simtech Solutions is a pioneer in the usage of data analysis to guide the process of allocating limited housing resources. [Homelessness Annual Report_2023

DISCUSSION
The City provides services to people experiencing homelessness via collaboration with the County of Santa Barbara, non-government organizations providing homeless services in the region, and local community-based volunteers and organizations. City staff routinely evaluates information to determine trends and issues related to homeless services as well as to evaluate the effectiveness and efficiency of those services.

Information is gathered from daily logs of City program divisions, including inspections of parks and open spaces and public facilities such as the Veterans Hall and public restroom buildings, public right-of-way maintenance, code compliance contacts for issues such as smoking in public, and citations and arrests by law enforcement (includes both Sheriff's and State Parks). The Carpinteria-Summerland Fire Protection District also monitors number and type of contacts with people that are believed to be homeless, including number of transports by ambulance.

Local data and issues concerning people experiencing homelessness in Carpinteria is reviewed and discussed at weekly and monthly meetings of City, County Department and service agency staffs. Acute and chronic issues are discussed along with strategies for providing assistance to service resistant individuals.

The lunch program was formed as a means to gather local homeless persons to one area at a specific day and time where services could be offered. Currently, the lunch program offers services from a County Drug and Alcohol Specialist, County Behavior Wellness, Good Samaritan (the regional homeless services entity), City Net, New Beginnings, local business and entities, and community volunteers that provide weekly lunches and provisions.

Tens of millions of dollars of federal COVID-19 relief bill funding, state funding, and local funding have been spent to address homelessness in Santa Barbara County in the last several years. This funding has been used to provide myriad services benefitting the region, including Carpinteria's population of people experiencing homelessness. Over the past year, an estimated 11 people experiencing homelessness in Carpinteria received assistance, including 2 people that exited to permanent destinations.

Projects, programs and services developed or under development in the region over the last two years include but are not limited to:
• Emergency shelters, temporary housing, and permanent supportive housing projects have been developed countywide, including through the state's Project Roomkey (temporary housing in participating hotels for people who are homeless) and Project Homekey (creating more supportive and permanent housing for formerly homeless individuals).
• Funding allocated for rental assistance and housing voucher programs.

N:\Code Compliance\Homelessness Annual Reports\2023
[Homelessness Annual Report_2023
May 8, 2023

• Santa Barbara County received about $46 million from the state in Coronavirus Aid, Relief and Economic Security (CARES) Act funding, allocating about $5.5 million to care for unsheltered people. Specific funding was allocated for increased emergency shelter costs, pallet house projects, and pandemic-related outreach at homeless encampments.
• The county budgeted more than $13 million of its American Rescue Plan COVID19 relief funding on addressing housing and homelessness. • The county received $10 million in funding last January, including $7 million for the Isla Vista emergency shelter. Santa Barbara County purchased the building for $6.3 million and the shelter is being operated by Good Samaritan Shelter. • The Housing Authority of Santa Barbara County converted office buildings into permanent supportive housing in Lompoc.
• The City of Santa Barbara housed 58 people temporarily at the Rose Garden Inn on Upper State Street.
• The New Beginnings Counseling Center's Safe Parking Program expanded to Carpinteria on October 24, 2022 when the City Council adopted Resolution No. 6171, establishing administrative procedures for a Safe Parking Pilot Program, and authorized the City Manager, on behalf of the City, to enter into an operating agreement with New Beginnings Counseling Center. The program is expected to being operating in May, 2023.
• Dignity Moves 2established pallet house interim housing in Isla Vista, Lompoc, and now downtown Santa Barbara. City of Carpinteria members of the Elected Leaders Forum met with Dignity Moves in an effort to begin exploring opportunities for a local project.
• The county and Goleta are collaborating on a proposal to purchase the Super 8 motel at 6021 Hollister Avenue and convert it into housing for formerly homeless residents.
• A Santa Maria proposal to buy a local Motel 6 for a permanent supportive housing program was initiated but has been delayed.
2 DignityMoves and the County of Santa Barbara have partnered to bring a new interim housing community to downtown Santa Barbara. Covid-19 has increased the urgency of building non-congregate housing for the unsheltered in our community. While more permanent housing is the ultimate long-term goal, our streets cannot be the waiting room. DignityMoves is building "interim supportive housing" as a stop-over between tents and permanent housing- where clients can be safe and receive the critical support services necessary to rebuild their lives and exit homelessness.

N:\Code Compliance\Homelessness Annual Reports\2023
[Homelessness Annual Report_2023
May 8, 2023

POLICY CONSISTENCY
The City's collaborative approach to providing homeless services, as described above, is intended to be a cost effective and efficient means for the City to address an important community service need. People living on the streets of Carpinteria require services that result in increased public costs for law enforcement, emergency medical, and hospital services, and present health and safety issues for the individual experiencing homelessness and the general public. Providing emergency services to people experiencing homelessness, although important, generally does not result in lasting changes for the homeless person or address public health & safety and quality of life issues caused by homelessness that are of concern to the community.

The response model being followed by the City through its partnership with Good Samaritan and other partnering agencies is intended to reduce reliance on first responders, which often results in arrest, transportation, jail and/or hospitalization, and to prioritize housing and related support services that can lead people that have been chronically homeless to reunification with family and/or getting established in permanent housing. This cost-effective approach to addressing homelessness was first discussed in detail in 2006 as a part of the Santa Barbara County Ten Year Plan to End Chronic Homelessness, which referenced various national studies on the subject.

The City Housing Element includes a number of policies aimed at addressing special needs housing, which includes transitional
3 and supportive 4housing that can meet the
needs of individuals and families that are homeless. The City's zoning regulations treat transitional and supportive housing as a residential use subject to those restrictions that apply to other residential uses of the same type in the same zone district. This regulatory approach ensures that development proposals for transitional and supportive housing will be treated the same as other residential proposals. 3 Transitional housing may be designated for a homeless individual or family transitioning to permanent housing. This housing can take several forms, including group housing or multi-family units, and may include supportive services to gain necessary life skills in support of independent living. The length of stay is predetermined with a six-month minimum.
4 Supportive housing is a place for permanent residence unlike temporary emergency shelters and transitional housing where services are provided to the occupants either at the residence or off-site. The types of support services that may be provided include mental health care, vocational and employment services, substance abuse treatment, child care and independent living skills training. The residents of supportive housing are disabled or include populations such as families with children, elderly persons, and young adults aging out of the foster care system, individuals exiting from institutional settings, veterans or homeless people. There is no limit on the length of stay.

FINANCIAL CONSIDERATIONS
The City of Carpinteria currently expends hundreds of thousands of dollars annually responding to issues related to homelessness and to address health and safety needs of people experiencing homelessness. Law enforcement, public works street maintenance, parks maintenance, code compliance, and management programs of the City are all impacted by demands for service created by homelessness. These expenses are difficult to track but, ultimately, result in increased public costs for services.

LEGAL AND RISK MANAGEMENT CONSIDERATIONS
In California, a growing body of case law is influencing how cities and counties manage competing interests of public health and safety and providing assistance to people living on streets and in other public places, often with severe mental and physical health issues. The City Attorney's office monitors these cases and advises City staff accordingly.

COUNCIL AGENDA STAFF REPORT
May 8, 2023

ITEM FOR COUNCIL CONSIDERATION
Approval of a budget appropriation for the City's portion of emergency repair costs of the Highway 101 Fire Incident Emergency Repair.

STAFF RECOMMENDATION
Approve a not-to-exceed budget appropriation of $335,000 to the Capital Improvement Projects Fund from the General Reserve - Special Projects Fund and the associated transfer for the City's portion of emergency repair costs of the Highway 101 Fire Incident Emergency Repair.

Sample Motion: I move to approve a not-to-exceed budget appropriation of $335,000 to the Capital Improvement Projects Fund from the General Reserve - Special Projects Fund and the associated transfer for the City's portion of emergency repair costs of the Highway 101 Fire Incident Emergency Repair. (This motion requires a roll call vote)

BACKGROUND
On February 19 and 20, 2022, a fire damaged the storm drains under the northbound side of Highway 101 near the east side of Carpinteria Creek. Part of the affected storm drain system includes a culvert that traverses under Via Real. As a part of the emergency response and due to potential damage to the Via Real roadway, the City temporarily closed Via Real to through vehicle traffic between Bailard Avenue and the northbound Highway 101 off-ramp (Highway 101 Exit 86). The Santa Barbara County Sheriff's Department conducted an investigation and determined the cause of the fire incident was by arson. On February 21, a suspect was arrested.

Following the fire incident, the California Department of Transportation (Caltrans) conducted a damage assessment. On March 2, 2022, staff met with Caltrans to discuss the findings of the damage assessment. In brief, the damage assessment found that some of the storm drains involved in the fire had been damaged beyond repair and would require replacement. The portions of the damaged storm drains, which were constructed from a plastic pipe material, are located within Highway 101 and under the Via Real roadway. The storm drain under the Via Real roadway was a 60" diameter pipe Approval of Budget Appropriation for the Highway 101 Fire Incident Emergency Repair May 8, 2023

that outlets to Carpinteria Creek and conveys storm water collected from Highway 101 and other tributaries (e.g. public and private streets) in the Carpinteria Creek watershed.

During the meeting on March 2, 2022, Caltrans also shared with the City its proposed emergency repair plan. The City and Caltrans also exchanged written communications and met on two more occasions in order to discuss maintenance responsibilities for the emergency repair work.

The emergency repair work began on Monday, March 7, 2022. Caltrans' contractor, Granite Construction, has performed the emergency repair work for both the Highway 101 storm drains and the replacement of the culvert under Via Real. The emergency repair work includes the removal of the damaged plastic pipes and replacement with reinforced concrete pipe.

On March 14, 2022, the City Council initially authorized a budget appropriation in the amount of $400,000 for Fiscal Year 2021/22. Caltrans provided a final cost amount, and it is less than the initially authorized budget appropriation. A revised budget appropriation is required for the current fiscal year.

The purpose of this agenda matter is for the City Council to appropriate funds necessary to pay for the City's portion of the emergency repair costs.

DISCUSSION
As a part of its due diligence concerning maintenance responsibilities, the City had:
a. Reviewed construction plans to confirm damaged improvements were constructed per plan.
b. Reviewed the Freeway Agreement, Freeway Maintenance Agreement, project Conditions of Approval, and Caltrans' Relief of Maintenance notice. c. Reviewed and requested property ownership information. d. Reviewed the City's Property Insurance policy and initiated the process to file a claim with California Joint Powers Insurance Authority (CJPIA). e. Consulted with legal counsel and CJPIA.
f. Met and corresponded with Caltrans representatives.

Caltrans had agreed to proceed with the emergency repair work at its cost subject to reimbursement by the City for any portion for which the City is ultimately found to be responsible.

The responsibility for the emergency repair costs was divided between Caltrans and the City because the improvements damaged by the fire include both the freeway and the City's street (i.e. Via Real). The section of Via Real affected by the fire related to the emergency repair, which includes the drainage culvert, is an extension of and is to be included in the City's street system. The Freeway Agreement (2013), Freeway Maintenance Agreement (2016), and Relief of Maintenance notice (2021) outline the plan for the transfer of maintenance responsibilities associated with the City's street Approval of Budget Appropriation for the Highway 101 Fire Incident Emergency Repair May 8, 2023
