Purpose of this Document
Section 65400(b) of the State of California Government Code requires planning agencies to provide an annual report to their legislative body, the Governor's Office of Planning and Research (OPR), and the State Department of Housing and Community Development (HCD) on the status of the General Plan and progress in its implementation. The four basic purposes of the annual report are as follows:

• To provide information to assess progress on implementation of the General Plan in accordance with the stated goals, policies and implementation measures.

• Provide information to identify necessary course adjustments or modifications to the General Plan as a means to improve implementation.

• To provide a clear correlation between land use decisions made during the reporting period, and the goals, policies and implementation measures in the General Plan.

• To provide information regarding local agency progress in meeting its share of regional housing needs and local efforts to remove governmental constraints to the development of housing.

State law requires that the General Plan Annual Progress Report (APR) be completed and submitted to the state each year for the previous calendar year. This APR looks at the City of Citrus Heights’s progress toward implementing its General Plan during the 2022 planning year.

General Plan Background
Upon incorporation in January 1997, the City adopted the Sacramento County General Plan. Soon thereafter, the City embarked on an intensive process of crafting the first General Plan. The resulting plan was adopted on November 15, 2000. Citizen participation played an important role in preparing the City’s General Plan. Because a General Plan needs to reflect community goals and aspirations, citizens were involved with issue identification and goal formulation. The public as well as various civic and professional organizations were consulted during the General Plan preparation stage whenever possible.

Numerous public meetings were held to discuss the General Plan. In 2011, a focused update to the General Plan was completed that addressed the areas of mobility/complete streets, water quality, climate change/sustainability. The Housing Element of the General Plan was updated in 2013 and again in 2021 to reflect the planning periods 2013-2021 and 2021-2029.

The General Plan addresses State General Plan requirements. California law requires that every city and county adopt a long-term General Plan that addresses seven specific topics or “elements,” organized in any format or structure preferred by the community. The General Plan may also address other topics the community feels are relevant. Regardless of the format or issues addressed, the Plan must be internally consistent. The City’s Plan is organized into three elements that meet the State requirements, as shown in Table 1: General Plan Content.

City’s Responsibility
The effectiveness of the General Plan ultimately depends on how it is implemented and maintained over time. State law requires that most actions of local governments affecting the physical environment be consistent with the General Plan. The implementation of the Plan is the responsibility of numerous departments and divisions including:

 City Manager’s Office (City Clerk, Economic Development and Communications Divisions)  City Attorney
 Community Development Department (Planning, Building and Housing Divisions)  Police Department (Includes Code Enforcement, Animal Control, Fleet, and Rental Housing Inspection Divisions)
 General Services Department (Public Works and Engineering, Community Services and Facilities, Grounds Divisions)
 Administrative Services Department (Finance, Information Technology, and Human Resources Divisions)

Additionally, several other governmental agencies provide services within the City’s boundary. While these agencies are neither part of the City’s operational structure nor directly responsible for implementation of the General Plan, the City does coordinate its activities with these other agencies and relies upon their assistance for full implementation of the General Plan. These agencies include, but are not limited to the following:

 Water Districts (3)  Sunrise Recreation and Park District  Sacramento Metropolitan Fire District  Sacramento Area Sewer District  San Juan Unified School District

Amendments to the General Plan
State law allows the City to amend its General Plan no more than four times per year. Amendments may be proposed and acted upon at any time during the year and one action may include multiple amendments. Any changes to the General Plan require public hearing by the City Council and evaluation of the environmental impacts as require by the California Environmental Quality Act.

In 2022 the City amended the General Plan one time(s), which included changes to the Community Health chapter to remain in compliance with state requirements for the City’s Local Hazard Mitigation Plan (LHMP).

Major Project Developments
Construction was approved, initiated or completed within Citrus Heights for the following major projects during the 2022 planning year:

Mitchell Farms – In 2022 the Mitchell Farms subdivision was issued building permits to begin construction on 68 of the projected 260 total single-family residential dwelling units located on approximately 32 acres, with 54 units being issued certificates of occupancy.

Community Character and Identity
Goal 2: Preserve the unique character of Citrus Heights, and create a distinctive community identity Goal/Action # Policy/Action Status/Implementation

2.3 Maintain a high level of services for all citizens, including high standards of public safety.

At the May 26, 2022 City Council meeting, City Council adopted a Focus Area Work Plan that outlined and clarified strategic objectives for the City to accomplish by March of 2024. Part of those objectives included the creation of a Beautification Crew. The crew began working in November of 2022, and provides expeditious cleanup and response, active enforcement of encampments and nuisance situations that impede public right-of-ways and other public areas that are detrimental to public enjoyment and safety.

Additionally, at the October 27, 2022 City Council meeting, Council adopted a Shopping Cart ordinance to aid businesses in the retention of carts and reduce long- term costs for businesses relative to shopping cart replacement and addressing the public nuisance created by stolen shopping carts that become community blight and litter.

Housing
Goal 25: Provide adequate sites for a variety of housing opportunities to serve all residents Goal/Action # Policy/Action Status/Implementation

25.1 Promote development of a variety of housing types in terms of location, cost, design, style, type, and tenure, while ensuring compatibility with adjacent uses of land.

25.1A Support development of secondary dwelling
units, cluster housing, work/live units, co-op
housing, and other innovative housing types
as allowed by the Zoning Code
In the 2022 year alone, the City
issued 32 building permits for the
construction of Accessory Dwelling
Units (ADUs). Six of these permits
were from the City’s Permit-Ready
Accessory Dwelling Unit Program
(PRADU), providing 18 different ADU
plans to prospective applicants free
of charge. This is all part of the City’s
efforts to create more housing
opportunities within single-family
zoned neighborhoods.

25.2 Strive to meet the City’s fair share housing allocation based on the Regional Housing Needs Assessment.

25.2A Develop an inventory of land suitable within
the City for the development of housing for
all segments of the community.

In 2022, a development proposal for
the 11.34-acre property near Sylvan
Corners was received. The plan
includes 95 single-family, detached
for-sale homes. The development
concept will provide walkability to
nearby retail and schools, and
attract new families to the

established corridor. Attracting new
families will help support the
existing commercial nodes in the
area and provide an economic
impact and ensure neighborhood
vitality. The project is under review
and will go through the City’s
normal development review
process, including public hearings at
the Planning Commission and City
Council. Woodside Homes will work
with the City on project review and
approval, including obtaining all
necessary entitlements and ongoing
communication with the
community.

Goal 26: Develop, conserve, and improve the housing stock to ensure decent accommodations for all segments of the community
Goal/Action # Policy/Action Status/Implementation

26.1 Encourage the conservation and improvement of existing housing.

26.1.A Promote the use of administrative remedies

Program officially launched in 2019.

Since then, the team has been in the
field conducting inspections and
working with rental property
owners and property managers to
resolve code violations that are
negatively impacting the quality of
the City’s housing stock. In 2022, the
RHIP team identified 583 individual
housing units with violations and
identified a total of 3,431 total
violations, of which 2,119 violations
were cleared. In most cases, each
one of these violations has the
potential to cause a hazard that
could result in great bodily harm or
death. These impressive results
highlight and underscore the need
and importance of having a program
dedicated to improving the City’s
rental housing.

26.1.F Continue and expand the City's Owner
Occupied Rehabilitation Program where

Public Safety
Goal 58: Ensure excellent public safety services and rapid and effective emergency response Goal/Action # Policy/Action Status/Implementation

58.1 Provide police staffing as necessary to meet community needs IMPACT Detectives and the SWAT Team, in conjunction with Code Enforcement and the City’s Building Division, were successful in shutting down an illegal gambling operation within the City limits. The neighboring businesses and landlord were extremely appreciative for the police department’s assistance.

The IMPACT Unit and the Homeless Outreach Navigators proactively partnered with other City government departments and the City Attorney's Office to look for strategies and best practices to tackle issues concerning blight and chronic nuisances that have negatively affected the quality of life in Citrus Heights. This collaboration led to forming a Community Prosecutor position through the City Attorney's Office.

A chronic nuisance offender (CNO) is any person who negatively affects the quality of life in our city through repeated violations of the City Municipal Codes and Ordinances and is a drain on City resources. This program aims to have an efficient way for the City of Citrus Heights and the Police Department to work with our Community Prosecutor to hold those accountable who are chronic nuisance offenders.

Housing Element Annual Progress Report
Overview
Preserving and enhancing the range and affordability of housing in an important goal of the General Plan. A goal of the Plan is to continue to address the housing needs for all, including move-up homeowners, low-income renters, seniors, disabled persons, and other with special needs. The Plan includes a variety of goals, policies and actions primality directed toward the following objective:

 Increase the level of home ownership in the community  Preserve the existing housing supply and assure its continuing quality.

This annual report includes a review of the Plan’s goals as they relate to housing. Table D, included within this report, provides the status/progress of the programs within the housing element section of the General Plan.

Regional Housing Needs Plan
In an effort to address statewide housing needs, the state of California requires regions to address housing issues and needs based on future growth projections for the area. Housing and Community Development (HCD) allocates regional housing needs to councils of government throughout the state.

The Regional Housing Needs Plan (RHNP) then allocates to each city and unincorporated county their “fair share” of the region’s projected housing needs by household income level. This distribution is commonly referred to as the Regional Housing Needs Allocation (RHNA).

The intent of the RHNP is to ensure that local jurisdictions address not only the needs of their immediate areas but also fill the housing needs for the entire region. Additionally, a major goal of the RHNP is to ensure that every community provides an opportunity for a mix of affordable housing to all economic segments of its population.

For the City, the RHNP is developed by the Sacramento Area Council of Governments (SACOG). State law requires the City to identify its progress in meeting its share of the RHNA as well as local efforts to remove governmental constraints to housing. The City’s General Plan Housing Element includes programs and actions to be taken to meet these objectives, and reflects the RHNP and RHNA for the Sacramento region.

SACOG, along with the City and the other jurisdictions in the region, prepared the Regional Housing Needs Plan (RHNP) and the Regional Housing Needs Assessment (RHNA) for the 2021–2029 planning period. The RHNP identified a total of 697 dwelling units as the City’s fair share of the regional needs total. Table 2 identifies the breakdown of this number for each of the income categories covered by the RHNP for the City.

to remediate substandard rental units
Ongoing The city’s Rental Housing Inspection Program officially launched in 2019. Since then, the team has been in the field conducting inspections and working with rental property owners and property managers to resolve code violations that are negatively impacting the quality of the city’s housing stock. In 2022, the RHIP team identified 583 individual housing units with violations and identified a total of 3,431 total violations, of which 2,119 violations were cleared. In most cases, each one of these violations has the potential to cause a hazard that could result in great bodily harm or death. These impressive results highlight and underscore the need and importance of having a program dedicated to improving the city’s rental housing.

Ryan Jones, City Attorney
SU
BJECT: Second Reading – Proposed Ordinance Prohibiting Commercial Vehicle Parking on Public Streets in the City; and Resolution to Approve Fine
Summary and Recommendation
On F
ebruary 23, 2023, the City Council introduced, read by title only and waived the first full reading of an ordinance adopting an Ordinance of the City Council of the City of Citrus Heights adding Section 94-281 to Article IV Division I of the Citrus Heights Municipal Code Prohibiting Commercial Vehicle Parking on Public Streets in the City. Background materials associated with this item are contained in the February 23, 2023 City Council Meeting Staff Report

available on the City’s website
Citr
us Heights Municipal Code Section 94-267(f) currently prohibits commercial vehicle parking in residential districts. This amendment would extend this prohibition to non-residential districts.

Commercial vehicles (tractor trailers, semi-trucks, etc.) have been utilizing City streets for overnight or longer-term parking causing a variety of concerns ranging from traffic safety, visibility and blight. In particular, the roadways on or around Sunrise Vista Drive, near Sunrise Rollerland, and Desimone Lane near Judi’s Cleaners have been impacted by repeated commercial vehicle parking. These locations, like elsewhere in the City, have the potential to create public safety concerns as well as negative business impacts due to reduced visibility and limited on-street parking for customers.

At
the February 23, 2023, City Council meeting, the Council made a motion to amend the draft ordinance to insert language that provides better clarity as to the parking prohibition.

Accordingly, the following modification was incorporated into the proposed ordinance:

No person shall park any commercial vehicle for more than one hour on any public street or move and repark such vehicle on any public street within 300 feet of the original Item 11
Agenda Packet Page 283
Subject: Second Reading – Ordinance to Prohibit Commercial Vehicle Parking on City Streets; and Resolution to Approve Fine
Date: March 9, 2023

Printed on Recycled Paper
parking site within any 24-hour period except while loading or unloading property or in connection with and in the aid of the performance of a service to or on a property adjacent to the block in which such vehicle is parked and only for such time in addition to one hour that is reasonably necessary to complete such loading, unloading or service.

As discussed during the staff presentation at the February 23rd City Council meeting, a Resolution setting the fine amount for violating this ordinance is also being brought forward for action. The attached Resolution would set the fine amount at $112.50, which is consistent with the fine amount for unlawfully parking a commercial vehicle on a public street in a residential district.

In order to address this ongoing concern, staff recommends the following motion:

Motion 1 : Move adopt Ordinance No. 2023-001, as shown in Attachment 1, an Ordinance of the City Council of the City of Citrus Heights adding Section 94-281 to Article IV Division I of the Citrus Heights Municipal Code Prohibiting Commercial Vehicle Parking on Public Streets in the City.

Motion 2 : Move adopt Resolution No. 2023-___, a Resolution of the City Council of the City of Citrus Heights, California, establishing a fine for of $112.50, which is consistent with the fine amount for unlawfully parking a commercial vehicle on a public street in a residential district.

If Council approves this second reading this proposed ordinance amendment will take effect on or around April 9, 2023. The Resolution would take effect immediately, but could not be enforced until the Ordinance is effective on or around April 9 th.

Nothing within the ordinance will prohibit the use of public streets while rendering service; however, parking for extended periods of time will no longer be permissible.

City Council Strategic Goal/Objective

This staff report aligns with the following Citrus Heights City Council Strategic Plan Objectives:

Goal: Preserve and Enhance Public Safety
Objective: Present to City Council for discussion and direction on issues related to commercial vehicle parking on city streets.

Fiscal Impact
There is no direct fiscal impact associated with this action. The Police Department will be responsible for the enforcement of the ordinance as with all other established on-street parking violations throughout the City.

As part of the consideration of this ordinance, the Police Department created an outreach flyer to notify commercial vehicle owners and drivers of the proposed ordinance to prohibit commercial vehicle parking. The Police Department began distributing the flyers throughout the City on January 23, 2023, and has not received any feedback from the community to date. The Police Department also reviewed the draft ordinance with the Sunrise MarketPlace and the Citrus Heights Chamber of Commerce, each expressing support for the Amendment.

BJECT: Fiscal Year 2022-23 Mid-Year Budget Adjustment and Financial Forecast Update
Summary and Recommendation
St
aff recommends the City Council review the General Fund revenues and expenditures for the first seven months of Fiscal Year 2022-23 and the updated Ten-Year Financial Forecast, and adopt Resolution No. 2023-___ approving amendments to the Fiscal Year 2022-23 Budget.

The
Budget and Financial Forecast is typically reviewed quarterly. The last review was for the first quarter of FY22-23 at the October 27, 2022 Council Meeting. There were no amendments recommended at that time as there was not enough data to accurately forecast any needed revenue amendments, and expenditure projections were on target.

The
proposed amendments to revenues and expenditures result in a projected net increase to General Fund reserves of $ 8 million. The allocation of budget funds in city service areas will be discussed as part of the upcoming two-year budget preparation cycle.

Fiscal Impact
The
proposed budget amendments will increase General Fund revenue appropriations by $1,584,035 with $200,000 adjustments to General Fund expenditure appropriations to reflect updated projections for the 2022-23 fiscal year.

Background and Analysis
FISCAL YEAR 2022-23 MID-YEAR BUDGET REVIEW
The City’s budget for Fiscal Years 2021-22 and 2022-23 was adopted by the City Council on April 22, 2021. The Fiscal Year 2022-23 amended budget (excluding ARPA fund 101) for all City funds anticipated revenue of $73.1 million and expenditures of $67.5 million. As of Item 13
Agenda Packet Page 292
Subject: Fiscal Year 2022-23 Mid-Year Budget Adjustment and Financial Forecast Update Date: March 9, 2023

Printed on Recycled Paper
January 31, 2023, $32.3 million (40.7 percent) of the budgeted revenue have been received and $31.6 million (42.8 percent) of the budgeted expenditures have been incurred.

The City’s main operating fund is the General Fund. The amended General Fund budget for Fiscal Year 2022-23 anticipated revenue of $42.1 million to fund expenditures of $35.3 million (excluding American Rescue Plan Act funds). As of January 31, 2023 General Fund revenues totaled $20.0 million (48 percent of the budgeted amount). General Fund expenditures totaled $20.3 million (57.4 percent of the annual budgeted amount). General Fund expenditures exceeded General Fund revenues by $240,000 at the end of the first seven months of the fiscal year. As the City Council has previously discussed, the General Fund operates in a deficit cash flow position during the first portion of the fiscal year due to the timing of the receipt of major sources of revenue including property tax, motor vehicle-in-lieu fees and sales tax. During this period, the General Fund relies on the available fund balance and in recent years has also utilized available cash in other funds to temporarily bridge the cash shortage.

Based upon fiscal activities during the first seven months of the fiscal year and information currently available, staff is proposing adjustments to the Fiscal Year 2022-23 General Fund Budget to more closely align the budget with anticipated revenues and expenditures.

GENERAL FUND REVENUE
The Fiscal Year 2022-23 General Fund amended budget projected revenue of $42.1 million. This projection was based upon information available at the time the budget was developed in June 2022. Based upon actual revenue received as of January 31st and projected revenue for the remaining five months of the fiscal year, staff is recommending adjustments to the General Fund revenue budget which will increase the budgeted revenues by $1.1 million.

The proposed adjustments to General Fund budgeted revenue include:

Taxes and Franchises
The largest source of revenue to the General Fund is sales tax. Sales tax revenue was amended at $14.3 million. Based upon a combination of increased gas prices and gas consumption, auto sales and the opening of new retail businesses, the City’s sales tax consultant has increased the projected sales tax revenue by $282,000 to $14.6 million.

After 25 years, the City received its first property tax payment on Feb 1 st. Property tax revenue
was amended at $6.9 million (66 percent of annual budget amount) mainly attributable to one- time payments and the real estate market conditions. Budgeted revenue, including the next payment in May, is forecasted an increase of $400,000 to $7.3 million.

Revenue from the transient occupancy tax is also coming in higher than anticipated by $77,000 due to the additional tax being collected for short-term rentals.

Intergovernmental Revenue
The State of California is responsible for reimbursing public agencies for certain state-mandated activities. The State is very slow in processing these payments which can take years to receive.

In Fiscal Year 2022-23, the City received $153,714 for the Great Plates program reimbursable in Fiscal Year 2021-22.

Item 13
Agenda Packet Page 293
Subject: Fiscal Year 2022-23 Mid-Year Budget Adjustment and Financial Forecast Update Date: March 9, 2023

Printed on Recycled Paper
The second largest source of General Fund revenue is motor vehicle-in-lieu fees which is paid by Sacramento County in two installments – 50 percent in January and the remaining 50 percent in May of each year. The City has been notified that the Fiscal Year 2022-23 vehicle-in-lieu fee revenue will total $11,026,823 which is $707,823 more than the budgeted amount.

Investment Revenue
Continued high interest rates have resulted in an increase of $80,000 in projected interest earnings. Interest revenue will still be higher than last fiscal year due to the earned interest on unexpended American Rescue Plan Act funds.

A summary of General Fund revenues through January 31, 2023 and the recommended budget adjustments is provided below:
