11. SUBJECT: Public Hearing #1 on the Redistricting Process STAFF: A. Van
RECOMMENDATION: The following is recommended;
a. Conduct a Public Hearing to receive public input on the composition of districts for the purpose of redrawing election district boundaries;
b. Receive a Presentation from the City’s Demographic Consulting Firm, National Demographics Corporation (NDC);
c. Set the Next Public Hearing for March 3, 2022
City Clerk Van introduced the item and the City’s demographer consultant, National Demographics Corporation (NDC). City Clerk Van informed Council that while the City established voting districts in 2019, the City must re-establish districts to reflect recent federal census updates. This is the first of four public hearings that will engage residents and community members in the redistricting process.

Robert McEntire with NDC introduced the process of re-districting. After the publication of recent census data, each city with district-based elections must take in to account any changes to the population. McEntire requested feedback from Council regarding a proposed redistricting schedule. Council reviewed two proposed schedules, which included future public hearing dates and deadlines for maps from the public. McEntire discussed the goal of laying the foundation for the redistricting process, which includes following guidelines Agenda Packet Page 7
Citrus Heights City Council Minutes Thursday, February 10, 2022

Page 4 ends

from federal laws, state criteria for cities, and other traditional redistricting principles. McEntire explained that given the updated census data, current district boundaries are legally compliant and could be selected if the Council wishes. The goal of the first public hearing is to establish notable areas in Citrus Heights.

City Clerk Van clarified that the proposed alternative hearing schedule would also include a public workshop on March 3, 2022.

Mayor Middleton opened the public hearing at 7:49 p.m.

PUBLIC COMMENT
City Clerk Van read a public comment from Kathy Morris, “CHASEN is a Neighborhood Association of Citrus Heights Areas Seven, Eight, and Nine. Our boundaries correspond exactly with the current District 2 boundaries. Our group is very active with a good participation from all areas – therefore involving the entire District. We believe the current district structure works and encourage retaining the District 2 as currently configured.”
Hearing no other public comments, Mayor Middleton closed the public hearing at 7:51 p.m.

Council Member Miller inquired about a public mapping toolkit. City Clerk Van informed him that we have blank maps available for the public but currently do not have an online mapping toolkit.

Council Member Bruins expressed support for the second proposed scheduling, holding the second Public Hearing on February 24, 2022 and keep all hearings aligned with current City Council meetings.

Mayor Middleton voiced her support with keeping the schedule of Public Hearings in line with currently scheduled City Council meetings and holding a separate workshop for the public.

Vice Mayor Schaefer supports the second schedule for the public hearings, keeping them on current City Council meetings. He also stated his support of adopting the current district boundaries. Vice Mayor Schafer stated that as he has been out and around his Council district there were many people that didn’t understand what districts were and he expressed concern with changing the existing district boundaries may further confuse residents. He felt it would be better to have residents get better acclimated with the existing districts.

Council Member Bruins also shared her support in adopting the current district boundaries.

Council Member Daniels inquired about the mapping toolkit and associated costs. City Manager Feeney informed Council Member Daniels that staff would monitor public participation, and then decide if purchasing the mapping toolkit is necessary.

Council Member Miller asked about any possibility of returning to at-large elections.

City Attorney Jones responded there are some cities that have tried to battle this, he believes it is a difficult battle and an expensive one that other cities have incurred. Returning to back to at-large voting is probably not something you want to entertain and we would likely get challenged and it would be an expensive process that in the end would probably not be successful.

All Council Members stated their consensus and support for the second proposed redistricting schedule.

MEMORANDUM
DATE: February 24, 2022
TO: Mayor and City Council Members
Ashley J. Feeney, City Manager
FROM: Alexander A. Turcotte, Chief of Police
Cassandra Burnett, Senior Management Analyst
SUBJECT: Renewal of Sacramento Abandoned Vehicle Services Authority (SAVSA) Program
Summary and Recommendation
Staff recommends the City Council adopt Resolution No. 2022-___ A Resolution of the City Council of the City of Citrus Heights, California, Renewing the Sacramento County Abandoned Vehicle Abatement Program and Approve the Proposed Abandoned Vehicle Abatement Tax Measure Ballot Language.

Fiscal Impact
The cost to the City of Citrus Heights for its portion of placing the Abandoned Vehicle Abatement (AVA) tax on the June 2022 ballot is not to exceed $8,500 and will be paid from the police department’s general fund (100-21-190-53401).

Background and Analysis
The City of Citrus Heights receives funding from the Sacramento Abandoned Vehicle Service Authority (SAVSA) to combat city problems with abandoned vehicles on private and public property. The SAVSA program is administered by the Sacramento Transportation Authority (STA) and funds are collected from a $1 fee that is paid by Sacramento County residents when they register their vehicle. The amount of funds each city and the county receive is based on population and the number of vehicles abated in the jurisdiction.

The City of Citrus Heights uses this funding to pay portions (approximately 20%) of two code enforcement officer salaries. Funding is around $50,000 to $60,000. For FY 21/22 the City budgeted $57,680 in SAVSA revenue.

Item 5 Agenda Packet Page 10
Renewal of Sacramento Abandoned Vehicle Services Authority (SAVSA) Program February 24, 2022

Page 2 of 2 ends

Printed on Recycled Paper
The current SAVSA fee program will expire on April 30, 2022. STA/SAVSA legal counsel has advised that the SAVSA fee qualifies as a tax under California Proposition 26 and, therefore, its renewal requires a public vote with a supermajority (2/3) adoption threshold.

Initial estimates of costs associated with placing this item on the ballot were approximately $63,000. This was brought to Council in June 2021 for direction as to whether or not the city should participate and pay the anticipated fees. At that time, due to associated costs, Council directed staff not to commit the City to participation unless there was a significant cost reduction.

In August 2021, the STA reached out after determining costs for placing the AVA tax on the ballot would be significantly lower than originally anticipated. Due to the reduced costs, in December 2021 the police department informed Council of the decision to move forward with placing the item on the ballot.

At this time, the police department is requesting Council to approve the ballot language in order for the city to continue to participate in the program in the event the tax measure passes.

BALLOT LANGUAGE

Exhibit
A. Abandoned Vehicle Authority (AVA) Tax Measure language Agenda Packet Page 12
MEASURE “___”
(County Elections Office assigns letter to Measure when it’s submitted) County of Sacramento
Renewal of the Abandoned Vehicle Abatement Program
Should the Sacramento County Vehicle Abatement Program and associated vehicle registration and renewal fees ($1.00 dollar per vehicle and an additional $2.00 dollars for certain commercial vehicles) be extended for a ten-year term under California Vehicle Code Sections 9250.7 and 22710, or any successor statutes thereto, for the purposes of removal and disposal of abandoned, wrecked, dismantled, or inoperative vehicles?
COUNTY COUNSEL’S IMPARTIAL ANALYSIS OF MEASURE “___”
This analysis of the renewal of the abandoned vehicle abatement program fee, Measure “___”, is prepared and submitted in accordance with Elections Code Section 9160. This measure was placed on the ballot by a vote of the Sacramento County Board of Supervisors.

Sections 22710 and 9250.7 of the California Vehicle Code authorize an Abandoned Vehicle Service Authority (AVSA) to impose a service fee (“AVA Fee”) of one dollar ($1.00) on all vehicles at the time of registration or renewal of registration, except for those vehicles which are exempt from the payment of registration fees. The fee is charged at a rate of one ($1.00) dollar for every vehicle registered to an owner with an address in the County, and an additional two ($2.00) dollars on commercial vehicles weighing 10,001 pounds or more.

AVA Fees are approved for ten-year periods. The most recent AVA Fee authorization in Sacramento County expired during Spring, 2022.

The AVA Fees are collected by the California Department of Motor Vehicles (DMV) and then dispersed to the Sacramento Abandoned Vehicle Service Authority (SAVSA). The fees may only be used for the abatement, removal, and disposal of any abandoned, wrecked, dismantled, or inoperative vehicles, or vehicle parts located on public or private property within Sacramento County including the Cities of Citrus Heights, Elk Grove, Folsom, Galt, Rancho Cordova, and Sacramento.

A YES vote would authorize the DMV to continue collecting the AVA Fee in the amount of one ($1.00) dollar for every vehicle registered in Sacramento County, and an additional two ($2.00) dollars for certain commercial vehicles registered in Sacramento County for a term of ten (10) years for the purpose of removal and disposal of abandoned and wrecked vehicles. The authorization of the AVA fee granted by this Measure would end on June 30, 2032
A NO vote would mean that the DMV would not collect the AVA Fee.

The AVA Fee will be renewed only upon approval by two-thirds (2/3) of the registered voters voting on Measure “___”.

Tentative maps are required for either process, but may be waived in certain instances.

In Citrus Heights, the Planning Commission is the hearing body that reviews and approves tentative maps and on October 28, 2020, the Planning Commission approved the Auburn Heights tentative map. The staff report and information presented to the Planning Commission can be found on the city’s website at http://www.citrusheights.net/AgendaCenter/ViewFile/Item/5554?fileID=32234.

After the tentative map is approved, the Developer must construct subdivision improvements and prepare a final map in accordance with the conditions of approval. Once the improvements have been completed and field accepted, and the final map is determined to be technically correct and in substantial compliance to the approved tentative map, the legislative body of the local agency must accept the subdivision improvements and approve/accept the final map prior to recordation of the final map.

For the Auburn Heights Development, the Developer is proposing to record the map prior to completing the construction of the subdivision improvements. To accomplish this, the Developer proposes to execute a subdivision improvement agreement (SIA). Under the proposed SIA, the Developer will bond for the public improvements and complete construction of the improvements prior to December 31, 2022.

The Developer submitted the subdivision improvement agreement, prepared engineering plans, and bonded for said improvements. Additionally, the final map and supporting documents necessary to comply with the approved tentative map and associated conditions of approval submitted by the Developer have been approved.

13. Inspection and Other Fees. Subdivider shall pay City all fees imposed in connection with the construction and inspection of the Required Improvements.

The fees referred to above are not the only City fees, charges or other costs that have been, or will be, imposed on the Subdivision and its development, and this Agreement shall in no way exonerate or relieve the Subdivider from paying such other applicable fees, charges, and/or costs.

14. Defense, Indemnification and Hold Harmless. Subdivider shall defend, indemnify, and hold harmless City, its officers, officials, employees, agents, and volunteers from any and all Agenda Packet Page 23

This defense, indemnification and hold harmless provision shall extend to claims, losses, damage, injury, costs, including attorneys’ fees, and liability for injuries occurring after completion of the construction of the Required Improvements as well as during construction, and shall apply regardless of whether or not City has prepared, supplied or approved the plans and/or specifications for the Required Improvements or has inspected or accepted the Required Improvements. Acceptance of insurance required under this Agreement shall not relieve Subdivider from liability under this defense, indemnification and hold harmless provision.

The parties intend that this provision shall be broadly construed to effectuate its purpose.

15. Environmental Warranty.
a. Warranties. Prior to City’s acceptance of dedications or improvements, Subdivider shall certify and warrant that:

f. Material Element. The maintenance of insurance as required by this section is a material element of the Agreement. The failure of Subdivider, its contractor(s) or subcontractor(s) to maintain or renew insurance coverage, or to provide evidence of renewal shall be a material breach of this Agreement.

Until such time as the Required Improvements are accepted by City, Subdivider shall retain title and shall be responsible for, and bear the risk of loss to, any of the improvements constructed or installed.

Agenda Packet Page 27
10 Title to and ownership of any real property to be dedicated and the Required Improvements constructed under this Agreement by Subdivider shall vest absolutely in City upon completion and acceptance in writing of such Required Improvements by City. City shall not accept the Required Improvements unless title to the Required Improvements is entirely free from lien(s). Prior to acceptance, Subdivider shall supply City with appropriate lien releases, at no cost to and in a form acceptable to City.

20. Repair or Reconstruction of Defective Work. If, within a period of one year after final acceptance by the City Council of the Required Improvements, any improvement or part of any improvement furnished and/or installed or constructed, or caused to be installed or constructed by Subdivider, or any of the work done under this Agreement materially fails to fulfill any of the requirements of this Agreement or the specifications referred to herein, Subdivider shall without delay and without any cost to City, repair, replace or reconstruct any defective or otherwise unsatisfactory part or parts of the improvements. If the Subdivider fails to act promptly or in accordance with this requirement, or if the exigencies of the situation require repairs or replacements to be made before the Subdivider can be notified, then City may, at its option, make the necessary repairs or replacements or perform the necessary work, and Subdivider shall pay to City the actual cost of such repairs plus fifteen percent (15%) within thirty (30) days of the date of billing for such work by City.

21. Subdivider Not Agent of City. Neither Subdivider nor any of Subdivider’s agents, contractors, or subcontractors are or shall be considered to be agents of City in connection with the performance of this Agreement.

22. Notice of Breach and Default. The following shall constitute a default under this Agreement: If Subdivider refuses or fails to perform the work on the Required Improvements, or any part thereof, with such diligence as will ensure its completion within the time specified in this Agreement, or any extension thereof, or fails to complete the Required Improvements within such time; if Subdivider should be adjudged bankrupt, or Subdivider should make a general assignment for the benefit of Subdivider’s creditors, or if a receiver should be appointed in the event of Subdivider’s insolvency; or if Subdivider or any of Subdivider’s contractors, subcontractors, agents or employees should violate any of the provisions of this Agreement. In the event of Subdivider’s default, Subdivider shall be deemed to be in breach of this Agreement and City may serve written notice upon Subdivider and Subdivider’s surety, if any, of the breach of this Agreement. Subdivider shall have fifteen (15) days from receipt of written notice by City to cure any default.
a. City reserves all remedies available at law or in equity, for breach of Subdivider’s obligations under this Agreement. City shall have the right, subject to this section, to draw upon or utilize the appropriate security to mitigate City damages in event of default by Subdivider. The right of City to draw upon or utilize the security is additional to, and not in lieu of, any other remedy available to City. It is specifically recognized that the estimated costs and security amounts may not reflect the actual cost of construction or installation of the Required Improvements and therefore, City’s damages for Subdivider’s default shall be measured by the cost of completing the Required Improvements. The sums provided by the Improvement Security may be used by City for the completion of the Required Improvements in accordance with the improvement plans and specifications contained herein. The Improvement Security Agenda Packet Page 28
11 includes the Payment Security, Faithful Performance Security, guarantee and Warranty Security, Monument Security and any other improvement security required by Section 11 of this Agreement.
b. In the event of Subdivider’s default under this Agreement, Subdivider authorizes City to perform Subdivider’s obligations under this Agreement, after twenty (20) days from City’s written notice of default to Subdivider and Subdivider’s Surety. Subdivider agrees to pay the entire cost of such performance by City. City may take over the work and prosecute the same to completion, by contract or by any other method City may deem advisable, for the account and at the expense of Subdivider, and Subdivider’s Surety shall be liable to City for any excess cost or damages; and, in such event, City, without liability for so doing, may take possession of, and utilize in completing the work, such materials, appliances, plant and other property belonging to Subdivider as may be on the site of the work and necessary for performance of the work.
c. Failure of Subdivider to comply with the terms of this Agreement shall constitute Subdivider’s consent to the filing by City of a “notice of violation” against all the lots in the Subdivision, or to rescind the written approval of the Subdivision or otherwise revert the Subdivision to acreage. The remedy provided by this section is in addition to, and not in lieu of, other remedies available to City. Subdivider agrees that the choice of remedy or remedies for Subdivider’s breach shall be at the discretion of City. d. If Subdivider fails to perform any obligation hereunder, Subdivider agrees to pay all costs and expenses incurred by City in securing performance of such obligations, including costs of suit and reasonable attorneys’ fees. e. The failure of City to take an enforcement action with respect to a default, or to declare a breach, shall not be construed as a waiver of that default or breach or subsequent default or breach of Subdivider.

Subdivider recognizes that by approval of the final map for Subdivision, City has conferred substantial rights upon Subdivider, including the right to sell, lease, or finance lots within the Subdivision, and has taken the final act necessary to subdivide the property within the Subdivision. As a result, City will be damaged to the extent of the cost of installation of the improvements by Subdivider’s failure to perform its obligations under this Agreement, including, but not limited to, Subdivider’s obligation to complete construction of the Required Improvements by the time established in this Agreement. City shall be entitled to all remedies available to it pursuant to this Agreement and by law, in the event of a default by Subdivider. It is specifically recognized that the determination of whether a reversion to acreage or rescission of the Subdivision constitutes an adequate remedy for default by the Subdivider shall be within the sole discretion of City.

23. Building Permit Sign-Off or Issuance of Certificate of Occupancy. Until City accepts the Required Improvements, City will not finalize or sign off as complete any building permit or issue any certificate of occupancy for the Subdivision.

CITY COUNCIL STAFF REPORT

MEMORANDUM
DATE: February 24, 2022
TO: Mayor and City Council Members
Ashley J. Feeney, City Manager
FROM: Regina Cave, General Services Director
Leslie Blomquist, City Engineer
SUBJECT: Adopt 2021 Local Hazard Mitigation Plan Update Summary and Recommendation
The Disaster Mitigation Act of 2000 requires communities to develop a local hazard mitigation plan (LHMP) to remain eligible for federal hazard mitigation funding, with updates required approximately every five years. This LHMP updates the revised Sacramento County Plan dated December 6, 2016 and previously adopted by the Citrus Heights City Council on October 12, 2017. Final acceptance of the Plan by the Federal Emergency Management Agency (FEMA) is contingent upon adoption of the attached Resolution.

Staff recommends the City Council adopt Resolution No. 2022-____, a Resolution of the City Council of the City of Citrus Heights, California, adopting the 2021 Sacramento County Local Hazard Mitigation Plan Update.

Fiscal Impact
There are no direct fiscal impacts from approval of this Plan; however, if pursued several of the mitigation measures may need future funding. Maintaining an approved hazard mitigation plan allows participating jurisdictions to apply for state and federal grant funding.

Background and Analysis
Sacramento County and 28 other jurisdictions, including the City of Citrus Heights, prepared the Plan update to the 2016 Sacramento County Local Hazard Mitigation Plan approved by FEMA.

On July 14, 2020, the Sacramento County Board of Supervisors approved a consultant agreement with Foster Morrison Consulting to coordinate the planning effort. The contract was managed by the Floodplain Management Section of the County of Sacramento Department of Water Resources through use of a FEMA grant and local cost sharing from the participating agencies including Sacramento County and the City of Citrus Heights.

Item 7 Agenda Packet Page 34
Subject: Adopt 2021 Local Hazard Mitigation Plan Update Date: February 24, 2022

Page 2 of 3 ends

Printed on Recycled Paper
The purpose of the Plan is to guide hazard mitigation planning to protect people and property from the effects of hazard events. Examples of the hazard events covered in the plan include flood, fire, earthquake, climate change, drought and extreme wind events.

The federal Disaster Mitigation Act of the year 2000 requires communities develop a local hazard mitigation plan to remain eligible for federal hazard mitigation funding, with updates required every five years. The LHMP is a tool to guide land use planning, and it is required for continued standing in the FEMA Community Rating System (CRS). In addition, maintaining a Plan allows participating jurisdictions to apply for grant funds from FEMA.

A planning committee, using the FEMA prescribed planning process, included active participation by staff from various County departments, from all seven cities, and from numerous special districts. This update also included several opportunities for local participation and there were public attendees from throughout the County and the seven cities.

The planning committee agreed on the following major goals for this plan:

1. Minimize risk and vulnerability of the Sacramento County community to the impacts of natural hazards, including consideration of the exacerbation of natural hazards and unique hazards due to climate change; and protect lives and reduce damages and losses to property, public health, economy, and the environment.

2. Provide protection for critical facilities, infrastructure, utilities, and services from hazard impacts, to include hardening and other efforts to establish redundancy and reliability, to prevent or minimize loss, and to facilitate recovery.

3. Enhance public outreach, education, awareness, and preparedness for all hazards to minimize hazard related losses and to include effective strategies for reaching underserved communities and vulnerable populations.

4. Increase community capabilities and leverage interagency and public-private coordination and resources to mitigate losses and to be prepared for, respond to, and recover from a disaster event.

5. Assure conformance to federal and state hazard mitigation initiatives and maximize potential for mitigation implementation.

The planning committee reviewed the hazards and assessed the risk, reviewed the progress on past mitigation measures and updated the list of proposed mitigation measures. The LHMP is presented in seven sections and there is an annex for each participating city and district. The appendices include the planning process, references, mitigation strategy, adoption resolution, threatened and endangered species, critical facilities, survey, the County’s repetitive loss area analysis, and the watershed management plan. Adoption by each jurisdiction is relevant to the portion of the LHMP that pertains to that jurisdiction.

The California Office of Emergency Services and FEMA Region IX officials have reviewed the Sacramento County Local Hazard Mitigation plan and approve it contingent upon the official adoption of the participating governing body. This is a countywide plan and each of the 28 participating jurisdictions may also adopt the Plan.

Sacramento County i
Local Hazard Mitigation Plan Update
September 2021
Executive Summary
This 2021 Local Hazard Mitigation Plan (LHMP) Update serves to update the 2016 Federal Emergency Management Agency (FEMA) approved Sacramento County LHMP. The purpose of hazard mitigation is to reduce or eliminate long-term risk to people and property from hazards. Sacramento County, 7 incorporated communities, and 24 special districts prepared this LHMP Update to the FEMA approved 2016 Sacramento County LHMP, in order to make the County and its residents less vulnerable to future hazard events.

This LHMP Update demonstrates the community’s commitment to reducing risks from hazards and serves as a tool to help decision makers direct mitigation activities and resources. This LHMP Update was also developed, among other things, to ensure Sacramento County and participating jurisdictions’ continued eligibility for certain federal disaster assistance: specifically, the FEMA Hazard Mitigation Grant Program (HMGP), Pre-Disaster Mitigation Program (PDM), and the Flood Mitigation Assistance Program (FMA).

Each year in the United States, natural disasters take the lives of hundreds of people and injure thousands more. Nationwide, taxpayers pay billions of dollars annually to help communities, organizations, businesses, and individuals recover from disasters. These monies only partially reflect the true cost of disasters, because additional expenses to insurance companies and nongovernmental organizations are not reimbursed by tax dollars. Many natural disasters are predictable, and much of the damage caused by these events can be alleviated or even eliminated. The purpose of hazard mitigation is to reduce or eliminate longterm risk to people and property from hazards.

LHMP Plan Development Process
Hazard mitigation planning is the process through which hazards that threaten communities are identified, likely impacts determined, mitigation goals set, and appropriate mitigation strategies determined, prioritized, and implemented. This LHMP Update documents the hazard mitigation planning process and identifies relevant hazards and vulnerabilities and strategies the County will use to decrease vulnerability and increase resiliency and sustainability in the community.

This is a multi-jurisdictional plan with the following seeking approval of the plan by FEMA:

Local Hazard Mitigation Plan Update
September 2021
The planning process began with the organizational phase to establish the Hazard Mitigation Planning Committee (HMPC) comprised of key County representatives, and other local and regional stakeholders; to involve the public; and to coordinate with other departments and agencies. A detailed risk assessment was then conducted followed by the development of a focused mitigation strategy by all participating jurisdictions or the Sacramento County Planning Area. Once approved by Cal OES and FEMA, this LHMP Update will be adopted and implemented by the County and all participating jurisdictions over the next five years.

Risk Assessment
The HMPC conducted a risk assessment that identified and profiled hazards that pose a risk to the County and participating jurisdictions, assessed the vulnerability of the Sacramento County Planning Area to these hazards, and examined the existing capabilities to mitigate them.

The Sacramento County Planning Area is vulnerable to numerous hazards that are identified, profiled, and analyzed in this Plan. Floods, earthquakes, drought, levee failures, landslides, wildfires, and other severe weather events are among the hazards that can have a significant impact on the County. Table ES-2 details the hazards identified for this Sacramento County LHMP Update.

Local Hazard Mitigation Plan Update
September 2021
Mitigation Strategy
Based on the results of the risk assessment, the participating jurisdictions and the HMPC developed a mitigation strategy for reducing the County’s and all participating jurisdictions’ risk and vulnerability to hazards. The resulting Mitigation Strategy for the Sacramento County Planning Area is comprised of LHMP goals and objectives and a mitigation action plan which includes a series of mitigation action projects and implementation measures. Based on the risk assessment, the HMPC identified goals and objectives for reducing the Sacramento County Planning Area’s vulnerability to hazards. The goals and objectives of this multi-hazard mitigation plan are:

GOAL 1: Minimize risk and vulnerability of the Sacramento County community to the impacts of natural hazards, including consideration of the exacerbation of natural hazards and unique hazards due to climate change; and protect lives and reduce damages and losses to property, public health, economy, and the environment.

Goal 2: Provide protection for critical facilities, infrastructure, utilities, and services from hazard impacts, to include hardening and other efforts to establish redundancy and reliability, to prevent or minimize loss, and to facilitate recovery.

GOAL 3: Enhance public outreach, education, awareness, and preparedness for all hazards to minimize hazard related losses and to include effective strategies for reaching underserved communities and vulnerable populations.

GOAL 4: Increase community capabilities and leverage interagency and public-private coordination and resources to mitigate losses and to be prepared for, respond to, and recover from a disaster event.

GOAL 5: Assure conformance to federal and state hazard mitigation initiatives and maximize potential for mitigation implementation.

Actions to support these goals are shown on Table ES-3.

Background and Analysis
On occasion, refinements to the Zoning Code are necessary to clarify existing standards, implement new ones, reflect changes in law, and address changing business types and their activities. Staff proposes to modify various sections of the Zoning Code to implement necessary refinements. The approval of these amendments does not approve any development project. Rather, they amend and clarify certain sections of the Zoning Code. Exhibit A includes a complete list of the proposed amendments with underline/strikeout text. While many of the proposed changes are minor, special attention should be given to the key areas discussed below where the changes are more significant. • Paving Standards Due to the large number of public inquiries regarding paving front yards, staff has found it necessary to include specific provisions within the Zoning Code to limit the area allowed to be impervious (paved) surface.

As it is currently written, the Zoning Code does not specify the amount of total lot area that shall remain pervious surface, and states that no more than 50% of the front yard area (measured along the front property line) shall be impervious surface. After consulting Zoning Codes of surrounding jurisdictions, staff has found that the majority of cities strive for greater pervious surface totals. Therefore, the proposed changes are as follows:
• A minimum of 25% of the entire lot area shall be pervious surface; • No more than 40% of the front yard area shall be impervious surface (e.g. sidewalks, driveway, or parking surfaces);
• Deviations from these standards may be allowed with a staff-level Design Review Permit.
• Tree Mitigation The proposed amendments include modifications related to tree mitigation. Currently, the Zoning Code allows for mitigation to be achieved via either an inch-for-inch replacement of the trees removed from the site, or payment into a tree mitigation fund.

Currently, there is no requirement or incentive for developers to retain existing trees that are below the minimum size to be considered protected. In order to offer additional incentive to preserve existing trees, staff is recommending to also allow on-site preservation of native oak trees under 6” in diameter at breast height (dbh) within the buildable areas of the lot to be counted toward mitigation totals.

For example, if a 4” Valley oak is preserved within the buildable area of the site, it would count as 4” toward the total mitigation requirement. This standard is currently in place in other agencies including Sacramento County:
o On-site preservation of native oak trees that are less than 6 inches dbh and within the buildable area of the site may also be used to meet the tree mitigation requirement
Another change that was originally proposed was to remove language about a property being exempt from tree permit and mitigation requirements if the property cannot be Agenda Packet Page 80

subdivided further based on minimum lot area requirements as seen in Article 3, Section 106.39.020(C). One Commissioner voiced concern about this change, stating that it would unfairly prevent these lots from creating further housing by preventing ADU construction if a tree was being removed and had to be mitigated. The Commission eventually voted 5- 2 to adopt all amendments to the Zoning Code except this change. Therefore, the language of this section remains unchanged from the current Zoning Code per the Commission’s recommendation for the Council’s consideration.
• Fences and Walls Currently, fences and walls have two triggers for when staff-level Design Review is required. The first is if the proposed fence or wall is visible from the public right-of-way and has a height greater than six feet and a length greater than 100 feet.

The second trigger is if the length of the fence is 200 feet or more, regardless of height.

Over the past few years, staff has received multiple inquiries regarding fencing along commercial corridors like Auburn Boulevard, Greenback Lane and Sunrise Boulevard. On occasion, some of the proposed fencing projects fell below the requirements for Design Review and have thus been allowed to be constructed without staff review or approval.

Fences and walls can be a significant visual component of a site, especially on commercial corridors that act as gateways into the city. After reviewing the Zoning Codes from surrounding jurisdictions, as well as the city’s own previous planning documents, staff is proposing the following changes to the Zoning Code as it pertains to fences in commercial zones:
• Design Review required for all fences proposed within commercial zones and visible from the public right-of-way;
• Eliminating the “six feet and length greater than 100 feet” requirement and instead requiring Design Review for any fence over eight feet tall and/or visible from a public right-of-way;
• Creating objective Design Review criteria for commercial fencing, including the following elements:
o Maximum height of eight feet, with fences and walls not visible from a public right-of-way allowed to go up to ten feet tall;
o Fences and walls should be treated as architectural extensions of the building and incorporate features that create visual interest; o When fronting pedestrian routes, fences and walls should be set back at least three feet to allow for landscaping to soften the impact of walls and fencing.

These changes allow for greater discretion and reduce the aesthetic impact of fencing along commercial corridors.
• Permits to Run with the Land Currently, if a use on a property that was originally approved via Use Permit discontinues and remains inactive for more than a year, the Zoning Code states that a public hearing must be held to revoke the Use Permit from the Agenda Packet Page 81
Subject: Zoning Code Updates
Date: February 24, 2022

property. In order to eliminate duplicative processes and streamline efficiency, staff is proposing the following changes:
• If the use is discontinued for more than twelve months, the Use Permit shall expire without requiring a public hearing as long as the following criteria have been met:
o No appurtenant structure is required and the use has been discontinued for twelve months; or
o If an appurtenant structure is required for the Use Permit but it is removed from the site for more than twelve consecutive months.
• If an appurtenant structure required for the Use Permit that has been issued a certificate of occupancy, and all other criteria of the Use Permit have been met, the Use Permit will continue even if the structure remains vacant for more than twelve consecutive months. However, no use may be re-established in the structure unless it has been determined by the Director to be substantially the same as the original conditionally permitted use.
• Wireless Telecommunications Facilities Staff is adding a section discussing the criteria for the installation of emergency standby generators meeting the definition of a Minor Modification pursuant to Section 6409(a) of the Federal Statute.

January 26 Planning Commission Meeting
The proposed amendments to the Zoning Code were presented to the Planning Commission at the January 26th Planning Commission meeting. The Planning Commission reviewed the proposed changes discussed above as well as the complete list of changes presented as Exhibit A.

The Planning Commission included a more robust discussion on a few components of the proposed amendments including regulations related to front yard pervious surface and Tree Preservation requirements. Ultimately, the Planning Commission supported the bulk of the proposed revisions; however, two commissioners supported the staff recommendation related to Tree Preservation.

The Planning Commission voted 5-2 to accept the amendments including the retention of existing Tree Preservation requirements for lots that are not splittable.

Although the Planning Commission recommended approval of Section 106.30.025 (Special Landscape Provisions), after internal discussions staff found that this section should be further clarified. Therefore, the staff recommended motion includes the changes as recommended by the Planning Commission but omits Section 106.30.025 (Special Landscape Provisions).

Environmental Review
This project is categorically exempt from the California Environmental Quality Act (CEQA Guidelines Section 15061(b) (3)) in that adoption of the proposed Ordinance will not result in any impacts on the physical environment; and under the general rule that the proposed amendments to the Municipal Code do not have the potential to have a significant effect on the environment.

After the January 26th Planning Commission meeting, staff received an e-mail that echoed the concerns regarding changes to the parking and pervious surface requirements (seen as Attachment 3).

As discussed previously, the Planning Commission had a discussion on the points raised in the letter and ultimately recommended approval of the Zoning Code Update as presented by staff. After internal review, staff finds that these concerns could be addressed by clarifying the section further.

As mentioned above, staff recommends approving the changes as approved by the Planning Commission but omitting Section 106.30.025 at this time.

A. Native oak trees;
B. The habitat values of oak woodlands;
C. Trees of historic or cultural significance;
D. Groves and stands of mature trees; and
E. Mature trees in general that are associated with proposals for development. 106.39.020 - Applicability 106.39.020
A. Applicability to protected trees. The provisions of this Chapter shall apply in all zoning districts to the removal or relocation of any protected tree, and to any encroachment (for example, grading) within the protected zone of a protected tree. A protected tree is any of the following:

1. A native oak tree with a diameter of six or more inches as measured 54 inches above the ground, or a multi-trunked oak tree having an aggregate diameter of 10 inches or more measured 54 inches above ground. A native oak tree is defined as any of the following species: blue oak (Quercus douglasii), interior live oak (Quercus wislizenii), coastal live oak (Quercus agrifolia), and valley oak (Quercus lobata);

2. A heritage, or landmark tree or grove identified by Council resolution;

3. Significant groves or stands of trees identified by Council resolution;

4. A mature tree other than those listed in Subsections A.1 through A.3, that is 19 inches or more in diameter as measured at 54 inches above the ground, and located on a commercial parcel, or on a residential parcel that can be further subdivided, or on a parcel in the RD-1, RD-2, or RD-3 zones, provided that the tree is not a willow (Salix spp.), fruit tree, eucalyptus (Eucalyptus spp.), alder (Alnus spp.), cottonwood (Populus spp.), pine (Pinus spp.), catalpa (Catalpa spp.), fruitless mulberry (Morus spp.), privet (Ligustrum spp.), tree of heaven (Ailanthus altissima), or palm (Acoelorrphe spp.);

recommendations for any additional care or treatment. Inspection frequency may be specified in the Tree Permit Conditions of Approval.
106.39.060 - Tree Planting and ReplacementMitigation 106.39.060 The City's principal objective for the Tree Permit process is the preservation of protected trees. The review authority may condition any Tree Permit involving removal of a protected tree upon the replacement of trees in kind. The replacement requirement shall be calculated based upon an inch for an inch replacement of the DBH of the removed trees where a 15 gallon tree (i.e., nursery stock in a #15 container) will replace one inch DBH of the removed tree; a 24 inch box tree will replace two inches, and a 36 inch box tree will replace three inches. The replacement trees shall have a combined diameter equivalent not less than the total diameter of the trees removed. A minimum of 50 percent of the replacement requirement shall be met by native oaks. Up to 50 percent may be met by non-native species. The review authority may approve a replacement program using one of the following four five methods or any combination of the four five methods. The preferred alternative is on-site replacement.

A. Replacement trees. Replacement trees may be planted on-site or in other areas where maintenance and irrigation are provided to ensure survival of the trees. The replacement trees shall have a combined diameter equivalent not less than the total diameter of the trees removed. A minimum of 50 percent of the replacement requirement shall be met by native oaks. Up to 50 percent may be met by non-native species. The replacement requirement shall be calculated based upon an inch for an inch replacement of the DBH of the removed trees using the following formula:

1. One 15 gallon tree (i.e., nursery stock in a #15 container) will replace one inch DBH of the removed tree;

2. One 24 inch box tree will replace two inches DBH of the removed tree; and

3. One 36 inch box tree will replace three inches DBH of the removed tree.

B. Relocation of trees. In certain cases, the City may consider the relocation of native oak trees from one area in a project to another. Credit shall be given for relocation on the same basis as replacement. The guidelines and limitations for relocation are as follows:

1. The trees being recommended for relocation must be approved by the review authority whose decision will be based upon factors relating to health, type, size, time of year and proposed location.

2. The relocation of a tree shall be conditioned to require a secured five-year replacement agreement for the tree with security provided by the developer in a form satisfactory to the City Attorney. If at the end of five years the tree is deemed by an arborist to be in a substantially similar condition to that prior to the transplanting, the agreement will be terminated. If the tree dies during the five-year period, it shall be replaced as required by this Section.

C. Revegetation requirements. The review authority may, instead of requiring replacement trees, require implementation of a revegetation plan. The applicant shall enter into a written agreement with the City obligating the applicant to comply with the requirements of the revegetation plan. A performance security or bond for 150 percent of the cost of the revegetation plan shall be required to insure that the agreement is fulfilled. The review authority shall approve the proposed plan. The revegetation program shall propagate native oak trees from seed using currently accepted methods. A revegetation program shall identify the seed source of the trees to be propagated, the location of the plots, the methods to be used to ensure success of the revegetation program, an annual reporting requirement, and the criteria to be used to measure the success of the plan. A revegetation program shall not be considered complete until the trees to be propagated have reached one-half inch in diameter or the revegetation plan demonstrates the need for alternative success criteria and achieves mitigation on an inch for inch basis as approved by the Commission.

Article 3 - Site Planning & Project Design Standards
3-135
D. In-lieu mitigation fee. The review authority may determine that the remedies described above are not feasible or desirable and may require instead payment of a cash contribution based upon the cost of purchasing, planting, irrigating and maintaining the required number of 15 gallon trees. The cost of purchasing, planting, irrigating and maintaining a 15 gallon oak tree shall be set by Council resolution. The cash contribution shall be deposited into the Tree Mitigation Fund.

Tree Mitigation Funds can be used as determined by the Director:

1. Tree Mitigation Fund. This fund shall be used to propagate, purchase, plant, protect and maintain trees, including purchasing property to plant or protect trees, propagating trees from seed or container stock and maintaining existing and replacement trees.

2. To fund special projects that enhance urban forestry programming, build on existing information, and/or to develop outreach or educational materials in support of the community urban forest and tree canopy.

E. On-site tree preservation. On-site preservation of native oak trees that are less than 6 inches (<6 inches) dbh, as described in Section 106.39.020, and within the buildable area of the site may also be used to meet the tree mitigation requirement pursuant to the formula described in Section 106.39.060(A). 106.39.070 - Tree Permit Approval or Denial 106.39.070
Each Tree Permit application shall be reviewed, and approved or denied in compliance with this Section.

A. Review authority. A Tree Permit shall be reviewed, and approved or denied by the Director, except that the Commission shall decide upon a Tree Permit application where tree removal is part of a project that otherwise requires approval by the Commission.

B. Application evaluation criteria. The following criteria shall be used to support the findings required by Subsection C. for the approval of a Tree Permit.

1. General criteria.
a. The gross floor area of proposed buildings in relation to the "usable" size of the site and the amount of usable space on the site that does not require the removal of protected trees; b. Design features in comparison with other existing or approved projects in the vicinity and in the same zone that have or had protected trees on their sites; c. Factors that are unique to the site, such as topographic constraints, lot configuration and other physical limitations;
d. The overall health and structural condition of the potentially impacted protected trees; e. The approximate age of the each protected tree compared with the average life span for each species;
f. The number of healthy protected trees that the site will support, with and without the proposed development;
g. The effect of tree removal on soil stability/erosion, particularly near watercourses or on steep slopes;
h. Whether there are any alternatives that would allow for the preservation of the protected tree; and Agenda Packet Page 107

REQUEST
The Planning Division requests the Planning Commission review the attached proposed Zoning Code Amendments. The proposed amendments include fences and walls, parking, landscaping, trees, and other various sections of the Zoning Code as shown in Exhibit A. The Planning Commission’s decision will be forwarded to the City Council for final action.

SUMMARY RECOMMENDATION
The Planning Division recommends the Planning Commission make the following motions:

Motion 1: Recommend the City Council adopt a Resolution to find the proposed amendments are exempt from the California Environmental Quality Act (CEQA) under Section 15061(b)(3) of the Guidelines in that adoption of the proposed Ordinance will not result in any impacts on the physical environment; and
Motion 2: Recommend the City Council adopt an Ordinance amending various sections of Chapter 106 of the City of Citrus Heights Municipal Code (Zoning Code Section) as shown in Exhibit A.

BACKGROUND
The city’s land use and zoning regulations are contained in Title 106 (Zoning) of the city’s Municipal Code (hereinafter referred to as the Zoning Code). The Zoning Code carries out the policies of the General Plan by providing standards and guidelines for the continuing orderly development of the city.

On occasion, refinements to the Zoning Code are necessary to clarify existing standards, implement new ones, reflect changes in law, and address changing business types and their activities. Staff proposes to modify various sections of the Zoning Code to implement necessary refinements. The approval of these amendments does not approve any development project. Rather, they amend and clarify the certain sections of the Zoning Code.

PROJECT DESCRIPTION
This staff report includes a table of the proposed changes. The table lists the code section number, the topic and a brief discussion of the change. Exhibit A includes a complete list of the zoning amendments in underline/strikeout text format.

While many of the proposed changes are minor, special attention should be given to the key areas discussed below where the changes are more significant. • Paving Standards Due to the large number of public inquiries regarding paving front yards, staff has found it necessary to include specific provisions within the Zoning Code to limit the area allowed to be impervious (paved) surface.

As it is currently written, the Zoning Code does not specify the amount of total lot area that shall remain pervious surface, and states that no more than 50% of the front yard area shall be impervious surface. After consulting Zoning Codes of surrounding jurisdictions, staff has found that the majority of cities strive for greater pervious surface totals. Therefore, the proposed changes are as follows:
• A minimum of 25% of the lot area shall be pervious surface; Agenda Packet Page 124
Zoning Code Update
January 26, 2022 Page 3 of 7
3 • No more than 40% of the front yard are shall be impervious surface (e.g. sidewalks, driveway, or parking surfaces);
• Deviations from these standards may be allowed with a staff-level Design Review Permit. • Tree Mitigation The proposed amendments include modification related to tree mitigation.

Currently the Zoning Code allows for mitigation to be achieved via either an inch-for-inch replacement of the trees removed from the site, or payment of $298-per-inch into a tree mitigation fund. Currently, there is no requirement or incentive for developers to retain existing trees that are below the minimum size to be considered protected. In order to offer additional incentive to preserve existing trees, staff is recommending to also allow on-site preservation of native oak trees under 6” in diameter at breast height (dbh) within the buildable areas of the lot to be counted toward mitigation totals. For example, if a 4” Valley oak is preserved within the buildable area of the site, it would count as 4” toward the total mitigation requirement. This standard is currently in place in other agencies including Sacramento County:
• On-site preservation of native oak trees that are less than 6 inches dbh and within the buildable area of the site may also be used to meet the tree mitigation requirement • Fences and Walls Currently, fences and walls have two triggers for when staff-level Design Review is required. The first is if the proposed fence or wall is visible from the public right-of-way and has a height greater than six feet and a length greater than 100 feet. The second trigger is if the length of the fence is 200 feet or more, regardless of height. Over the past few years, staff has received multiple inquiries regarding fencing along commercial corridors like Auburn Boulevard, Greenback Lane and Sunrise Boulevard. On occasion, some of the proposed fencing projects fell below the requirements for Design Review and have thus been allowed to be constructed without staff review or approval.

Fences and walls can be a significant visual component of a site, especially on commercial corridors that act as gateways into the city. After reviewing the Zoning Codes from surrounding jurisdictions, as well as the city’s own previous planning documents, staff is proposing the following changes to the Zoning Code as it pertains to fences in commercial zones:
• Requiring Design Review for all fences proposed within commercial zones and visible from the public right-of-way;
• Eliminating the “six feet and length greater than 100 feet” requirement and instead requiring Design Review for any fence over eight feet tall and/or visible from a public rightof-way; • Creating objective Design Review criteria for commercial fencing, including the following elements:
o Maximum height of eight feet, with fences and walls not visible from a public rightof-way allowed to go up to ten feet tall; o Fences and walls should be treated as architectural extensions of the building and incorporate features that create visual interest;
o When fronting pedestrian routes, fences and walls should be set back at least three feet to allow for landscaping.

These changes allow for greater discretion and reduce the aesthetic impact of fencing along commercial corridors.

4 • Permits to Run with the Land If a use on a property that was originally approved via Use Permit discontinues and remains inactive for more than a year, the Zoning Code currently states that a public hearing must be held to revoke the Use Permit from the property. In order to eliminate duplicative processes and streamline efficiency, staff is proposing the following changes:
• If the use is discontinued for more than twelve months, the Use Permit shall expire as long as the following criteria have been met:
o No appurtenant structure is required and the use has been discontinued for twelve months; or
o If an appurtenant structure is required for the Use Permit but it is removed from the site for more than twelve consecutive months
• If an appurtenant structure required for the Use Permit that has been issued a certificate of occupancy, and all other criteria of the Use Permit have been met, the Use Permit will continue even if the structure remains vacant for more than twelve consecutive months.

However, no use may be re-established in the structure unless it has been determined by the Director to be substantially the same as the original conditionally permitted use.

CONCLUSION
The proposed Zoning Code amendment is consistent with the General Plan and will not be detrimental to the public interest, health, safety, convenience, or welfare of the city. The proposed modifications are intended to update the Zoning Code based on changing trends, new legal requirements or best practices; therefore, staff recommends approval of the amendments.

ENVIRONMENTAL DETERMINATION
This project is categorically exempt from the California Environmental Quality Act (CEQA Guidelines Section 15061(b) (3)) in that adoption of the proposed Ordinance will not result in any impacts on the physical environment; and under the general rule that the proposed amendments to the Municipal Code do not have the potential to have a significant effect on the environment.

RECOMMENDATION
The Planning Division recommends the Planning Commission make the following motions:

Motion 1: Recommend the City Council adopt a Resolution to find the proposed amendments are exempt from the California Environmental Quality Act (CEQA) under Section 15061(b)(3) of the CEQA Guidelines; and
Motion 2: Recommend the City Council adopt an Ordinance amending Chapter 106 of the City of Citrus Heights Municipal Code (Zoning Code Section) as shown in Exhibit A.

Dear City Council Members.

I write to ask you to please consider voting NO on the proposed change to Zoning Code Section 106.34.025 . The section of the change I am opposed to is:
“No more than 40% of the front yard shall be impervious surface … Paragraph 2 under Paving Standards indicates the reduction down to 40% was a result of “consulting Zoning Codes of surrounding jurisdictions” (A highlighted screenshot of this section is below).  This comparison and a follow‐the‐leader type of decision makes no practical sense to me.

Why? Because Citrus Heights is not like Elk Grove nor Rancho Cordova which was mentioned in the Planning Commission meeting. We do not have as multiple new developments nor excess vacant land where developers are building subdivisions using postage‐stamp‐sized lots (which already require little irrigation).  Citrus Heights is well established with many larger‐than‐average front yards.  Therefore, in my view, it is not unreasonable to retain the 50% limit on impervious area as it stands. In fact, it is environmentally conscientious to do so.

On the next page I am attaching a couple of pictures from just around my own neighborhood. Many of the homeowners have made improvements to their property which entailed covering OVER 40% of their front yards with flatwork.  Doing so has accomplished the following positive things for the community:

1. Lowered water usage. Our large pervious front yards require a lot of this precious natural resource.

2. Safety – More automobiles are off the streets. These are large‐family homes with multiple drivers. Our neighborhood has benefited substantially by these homeowners providing more parking on their front yard lots rather than cluttering the street vehicles. This has resulted in a safer, more enjoyable neighborhood for the residents and their children to walk, ride and play.

3. Increased property values (opinion as a consumer). The curb appeal in our neighborhood has only increased by homeowners using more than 40% of their front yards for impervious flatwork.  We have much cleaner looking streets after owners provide their vehicles a place to be off the street. Yards are better kept with less maintenance required. Less weeds and more actual landscape design than prior to flatwork.

Article 3 – Site Planning and Project Design Standards Code Section 106.34.025 Special Landscape Provisions.

I would like to share that I also drove around other neighborhoods and it becomes clear that Grand Oaks, Twin Oaks, Rusch Park areas also have sufficiently large lots to cover 50% with impervious materials and still have plenty of pervious front yards left (just to name a few).

One last note regarding our residents with front yards facing busy streets.  It is beneficial and much safer for these people to be allowed to pour L‐shaped or Circular driveways allowing them to navigate entrance to and exit from their homes more safely. (Even if it took up more than the 40% recommended by this zoning change.) Agenda Packet Page 131
I hope you are moved to take a short drive to view for yourselves how 40% restriction would be too little for some of these homes:

My hope is that it will help you agree that:
 The 50% amount currently in the Zoning code need NOT be reduced.

Thank you,

CITY OF CITRUS HEIGHTS

CITY COUNCIL STAFF REPORT

MEMORANDUM
DATE: February 24, 2022
TO: Mayor and City Council Members
Ashley J. Feeney, City Manager
FROM: Amy Van, City Clerk
SUBJECT: Public Hearing #2 on the Redistricting Process Summary and Recommendation
Staff recommends the City Council:

1. Receive a presentation from the City’s demographic consulting firm, National Demographics Corporation (NDC); and

2. Hold a public hearing to review draft maps and receive public input regarding the composition of district boundaries.

Fiscal Impact
There is no fiscal impact associated with this public hearing.

Background and Analysis
Each city with district-based elections is required to update (“redistrict”) the district boundaries every ten years, following the receipt of updated population data from each federal decennial census. The City is required to redistrict the district boundaries prior to the next election in November 2022. Although the City recently transitioned to district-based elections in 2019, the boundaries are based on the 2010 federal census, which means the City must now update the boundaries through the redistricting process based on the 2020 federal census.

On February 10, 2022, the City Council held its first of four Public Hearings without maps to receive input from the public regarding district boundaries for Council Members. At the February 20, 2022 hearing the City’s demographer, NCD, provided a presentation on the overall population changes within the City according to the 2020 federal census data, and an overview of the legal requirements under the FAIR MAPS Act that must be considered when drawing district boundaries. Following the first public hearing, the public was given the opportunity to submit Item 9 Agenda Packet Page 134
