MEMORANDUM
DATE: June 10, 2026
TO: Mayor and City Council Members
Ashley J. Feeney, City Manager
FROM: Amy Van, City Clerk
SUBJECT: Calling the November 3, 2026 General Municipal Election and Requesting Consolidation with the Statewide General Election
Recommendation
In accordance with the provisions of the City’s Municipal Code, a General Municipal Election shall be held on November 3, 2026, for the election of three members of the City Council, representing Districts 2, 4 and 5 for a term of four years. Pursuant to Elections Code §10403, the City Council must adopt a resolution in order to consolidate the City of Citrus Heights General Municipal Election with the statewide election conducted by the County of Sacramento.

Staff recommends the following:

Adopt Resolution No. 2026-___ A Resolution Calling a General Municipal Election and Requesting the Board of Supervisors of Sacramento County to Consolidate the General Municipal Election with the Statewide General Election to be held on November 3, 2026 Pursuant to Section §10403 of the Elections Code.

Strategic Plan Alignment
This item is in alignment with the following City Council priority:

Goal: Enhance Community Vibrancy and Engagement
Fiscal Impact
Based on the County of Sacramento’s estimate provided to the City, $76,200 was budgeted in the Fiscal Year 2026/2027 General Fund (Fund 100) budget for all election activities.

Subject: Calling the November 3, 2026 General Municipal Election and Requesting Consolidation with the Statewide General Election
Date: June 10, 2026

Page 2 of 2 ends

Background and Analysis
The 2026 November Election will include Council Districts 2, 4 and 5 electing a council member for a term of four years. By-district elections mean that registered voters of a district will elect a council member from their district, rather than on a citywide basis. Only those registered voters residing in Districts 2, 4 and 5 will receive ballots for this city council member election.

Individuals desiring to run for City Council must reside in the eligible districts and be a registered voter of that district during the nomination period. If elected, they must continue to reside in that district during their term of office.

To determine which District a resident currently resides in, an interactive map is on the City’s website for review (http://www.citrusheights.net/156/Elections). Residents can type in their address to determine in which district they reside.

The nomination period for the November 3, 2026 General Municipal Election will be July 13 through August 7, 2026. If an eligible incumbent does not file nomination papers by 5:00 p.m. on August 7, any qualified person other than the incumbent shall have until 5:00 p.m. on August 12, 2026 to file nomination papers. A Candidate Manual will be provided to all candidates, with required forms and deadlines.

The City’s Elections webpage (http://www.citrusheights.net/156/Elections) will be updated throughout the election process. From this page, residents can access the Interactive District Map, view campaign disclosure statements, and view other important election information.

DATE: June 10, 2026
TO: Mayor and City Council Members
Ashley J. Feeney, City Manager
FROM: Alexander A. Turcotte, Chief of Police
Kris Frey, Police Commander
William Dunning, Police Lieutenant
Debra Miller, Police Services Supervisor
Casey Kempenaar, Community Development Director
Alison Bermudez, Senior Planner

SUBJECT: Second Reading: Ordinance Amending Citrus Heights Municipal Code Chapter 22 – Businesses, Article VIII. – Massage Establishments

Recommendation
On May 27, 2026, staff provided Council with proposed amendments to Citrus Heights Municipal Code Chapter 22 – Businesses, Article VIII. – Massage Establishments. The proposal was introduced, read by title only and waived the first full reading of the Ordinance.

Staff recommends the City Council move to adopt Ordinance No. 2026-003, amending Citrus Heights Municipal Code Chapter 22 – Businesses, Article VIII. – Massage Establishments.

If Council passes this motion, the proposed ordinance will be effective thirty (30) days thereafter.

Strategic Plan Alignment
This item is in alignment with the following City Council priority from 2025:

Goal: Preserve and Enhance Public Safey
Objective: To maintain consistency with regional and adjacent jurisdictions, present Zoning and Municipal Code updates. Consider regulations for high visibility or high impact uses including massage establishments, vending/food trucks, and similar challenges facing the region.

Fiscal Impact
There is no direct impact to the City’s general fund.

Background and Analysis
In March 2025, City Council adopted a strategic goal to maintain consistency with regional and adjacent jurisdictions, to present zoning and municipal code updates, by considering regulations for high visibility or high impact uses to include massage establishments. Staff completed a comprehensive review of Chapter 22, Article VIII of the Citrus Heights Municipal Code, which regulates massage establishments and was last updated in 2018. While the existing ordinance provides foundational licensing and operational requirements, staff identified the need for clearer standards, enhanced application requirements, and more effective enforcement mechanisms to deter illegal conduct while supporting legitimate massage establishments within the city.

During the review process, staff completed a comprehensive review and comparison of massage establishment ordinances within the region to include, the City of Sacramento, County of Sacramento, City of Rancho Cordova, and the City of Roseville. Based on staff’s review, it was determined the County of Sacramento and City of Roseville’s ordinances, both updated in 2025, provided staff with up-to-date ordinances to model for proposed amendments to the existing massage establishment ordinance.

As part of the ordinance review, staff created a dedicated webpage on the City’s website for massage establishments, providing the community with access to information related to the proposed updates. In addition, staff from the police department and the community development department participated in a community workshop held on January 22, 2026, which was attended by approximately 20 participants. The purpose of the workshop was to provide massage establishment owners, managers, and employees with an opportunity to ask questions directly to staff regarding the proposed ordinance changes.

On February 25, 2026, staff presented nineteen proposed updates to the existing massage establishment ordinance to City Council. The proposed updates were consistent with the County of Sacramento and the City of Roseville, and there are no requirements being considered that are more restrictive than these two neighboring jurisdictions. At the conclusion of the presentation, City Council provided staff with direction to move forward with 18 of the 19 proposed updates.

Following the February 25, 2026, City Council meeting, staff updated the dedicated webpage on the City’s website with the direction from council. Staff also updated the website to provide massage establishment owners, managers, and employees information for the May 27, 2026, City Council meeting and anticipated effective date of the new ordinance if approved by City Council.

Proposed Amendments
Purpose and Intent: Amend Section 22-602 to explicitly frame massage therapy as a valid health service while emphasizing ethics, crime deterrence, blight reduction, and neighborhood protection. Owners and managers bear full responsibility for all on-site conduct, a common accountability measure to combat illicit operations disguised as legitimate businesses.

Definitions: This amendment to Section 22-604 would remove “approved national massage organization or association” and the $2,000,000 liability insurance, which would be added to Section 22-613(d). This amendment would also add the term “Independent Contractor”, which aligns with the amendment to Section 22-613(6).

Licensing and Application Enhancements: These strengthen vetting and transparency:
• Amend Section 22-613(5) to require the property owner or landlord contact information to allow notifications to property owners regarding violations. • Amend Section 22-613(6) to require applicants to provide documentation if they are proposing to retain a massage therapist as an independent contractor. This update would result in an amendment to Section 22-604- Definitions.
• Amend Section 22-613(a)(7)(f) to broaden criminal history disclosures to include prior criminal charges and convictions.
• Amend Section 22-613(b) to establish clear timelines for application review and completion for incomplete applications.
• Add Section 22-613(d) to require a current and valid policy of liability insurance providing minimum coverage of $1,000,000.
• Amend Section 22-619(3) for further clarify grounds for denial of a massage establishment license for non-compliance with safety requirements and standards imposed by laws of the state and the ordinances of the city, to include this article.

License Renewal Requirements: Add Section 22-630(f) to require all unpaid citations or uncorrected violations must be corrected prior to the renewal of a business license.

Revocation or Suspension of Massage Establishment License:
• Amend Section 22-640 to add subsections 4-8 to further clarify the actions of a licensee which can cause the revocation or suspension of a massage establishment license. This amendment would align with staff recommendation to strengthen enforcement efforts, which was a direction from Council.
• Add Section 22-644 to allow one-time continuance during the appeal hearing process. • Add Section 22-645 to establish guidelines if the appealing party fails to attend the scheduled appeal hearing.

Operational and Facility Standards: These amendments would establish and clarify current standards within the existing ordinance language.
• Amend section 22-280 to establish the owner and manager of the massage establishment is responsible for the conduct of all persons on the premise. • Amend Section 22-682 to prohibit any person from entering a massage establishment under the influence of alcohol or drug.
• Amend Section 22-683 to prohibit the residential use (living facilities) of a commercial massage establishment, pursuant to California Health and Safety Code 17920.3(n). • Amend Section 22-684(e) to restrict therapist attire to prohibit transparent, see-through, or garments which substantially expose the anatomical areas. • Amend Section 22-685(a) to expand prohibited conduct to prohibit the touching of anatomical areas of a female customer without their written consent. • Amend Section 22-687 to allow security cameras at the reception desk and rear entry/exit of the business.
• Amend Section 22-692(b) to create advertising restrictions, to include sexually suggestive content and add section 22-693(c) to prohibit advertising on websites known to promote illicit activity.
• Add Section 22-695 to define window covering requirements to allow visibility into a massage establishment during the hours of operation.
• Add Section 22-696 to prohibit the installation or use of table showers. • Add Section 22-697 to mandate the posting of notices which include victim and human trafficking information pursuant to California Civil Code Section 52.6.

Enforcement:
• Amend Section 22-701 to establish violations of this article deemed non-correctable may be subject to immediate issuance of administrative notice of violation. • Add Section 22-702(b) to establish failing to comply with a final administrative order or to pay any administrative fines or late fees may result in misdemeanor charges. Pursuing criminal action does not limit the City’s ability to use other legal remedies to enforce compliance or collect unpaid fines and fees.
• Add Section 22-704 to clarify a conviction or penalty for violating this article does not excuse a person from paying any unpaid taxes, fees, penalties, or interest that remain due.

By providing clear standards for murals, the City fosters artistic expression while ensuring that such installations are compatible with the scale and character of the surrounding built environment. • SB 9 (Two-Unit Developments): The revisions to regulations for two-unit developments are necessary to maintain consistency with Senate Bill 9 (SB 9) and Government Code Section 65852.21. These changes ensure that the City’s local code remains legally enforceable and provides clear objective standards for urban lot splits and two-unit projects as mandated by State law. • Public Welfare & Clean-up: The proposed minor "clean-up" amendments and the ordinance as a whole will not be detrimental to the public interest, health, safety, convenience, or welfare. These changes collectively improve the functionality of the Citrus Heights Municipal Code and ensure it remains a modern, legally compliant, and user-friendly document.

A. Purpose. This Section is to encourage and allow accessory dwelling units (ADU) and junior accessory dwelling units (JADU) and establish standards in conformance with the State law provisions set forth in California Government Code Sections 66310 through 66342 (“State ADU law”).

1. Applicability. The lot on which an ADU is located must have an existing or proposed primary unit, duplex or multi-unit dwelling, or such a dwelling may be constructed concurrently with the accessory dwelling unit. Both options are pursuant to the common development standards set forth in Section 106.42.015(E).

2. Development Options. An applicant may choose to proceed under subsection B, which sets forth the city's local development option or the applicant may choose to proceed under subsection C, which sets forth an alternative development option, consistent with California Government Code section 66323. The two options may not be combined. Nothing in this Chapter shall provide an exception to the requirements of the Building Code.

B. City’s local development option. The following standards apply under the City’s local development option.

1. Number of units
a. A lot developed with a single-unit dwelling may have a maximum of one ADU and one JADU pursuant to Section 106.42.015 (D). Neither the ADU nor the JADU are included when calculating the density of a parcel.
b. A lot developed with a multi-unit dwelling will follow California Government Code Section 66323 as listed in subsection C.

2. Location. ADUs are prohibited within the front yard, except as permitted under Section 106.42.015(E)(1)(c).

3. Allowed floor area
a. Attached ADU: The floor area of an attached ADU shall not exceed sixty (60) percent of the floor area of the existing primary dwelling, up to a maximum of 1,200 square feet.

Notwithstanding this limit, an attached ADU shall be permitted a minimum floor area of at least:
(1) 850 square feet for an ADU with zero to one bedroom; or (2) 1,000 square feet for an ADU with 2 or more bedrooms, whichever is less.

In no case shall local development standards (such as floor area ratio or lot coverage) be applied to prohibit at least one attached ADU of at least 800 square feet. b. Detached ADU: The floor area of a detached ADU shall not exceed 1,200 square feet, regardless of the size of the primary dwelling.
c. Efficiency Unit: Nothing in this section shall be construed to prohibit an "efficiency unit" as defined in Section 17958.1 of the Health and Safety Code, with a minimum floor area of 150 square feet.
d. Calculation of Floor Area: The floor area is calculated pursuant to Section 106.42.015(E)(4).

C. State of California Government Code Section 66323 ADU option. The following standards apply under the State of California’s Government Code Section 66323 ADU option.

1. Number of units
a. For lots with a single-family dwelling, each of the following:

Attachment 1- Exhibit A ITEM 8 Agenda Packet Page 59
(1) One interior ADU per lot created through the conversion of space entirely with an existing structure, including accessory structure is allowed. This may include the construction of up to a 150 square foot expansion beyond the same physical dimensions as the existing accessory dwelling structure to accommodate ingress and egress only. An interior accessory dwelling unit must have exterior access and side and rear setbacks sufficient for fire safety.
(2) One JADU per lot pursuant to Section 106.42.015 (D). (3) One new construction detached ADU with a minimum four-foot side and rear setbacks.

The ADU may not exceed a floor area of up to 800 square feet and shall not exceed a maximum height of 18 feet, plus an additional two feet to accommodate roof pitch to align with roof pitch of the primary dwelling unit.
b. For lots with a multi-unit dwelling, the allowed number of allowed ADUs are listed below.

For the purpose of this subsection, a structure with two or more attached dwellings on a single lot is considered a multi-unit dwelling. Multiple detached single-unit dwellings on the same lot are not considered a multi-unit lot.
(1) Existing multi-unit dwellings may create ADUs from existing areas that are not used as livable space within an existing multi-unit dwelling structure (i.e., storage rooms, boiler rooms, passageways, attics, basements, or garages), provided the spaces meet state building standards for dwellings. The number of ADUs shall not exceed one or 25% of the existing multi-unit dwellings, whichever is greater.
(2) Existing multi-unit dwellings may construct one (1) detached ADU for each existing dwelling unit on the lot, up to a maximum of eight (8) detached ADUs. (3) Proposed multi-family units may construct up to two detached ADUs. (4) All detached ADUs must comply with the height requirements of Section 106.42.015(B)(2)(b).
(5) No maximum floor area limitation shall apply to detached ADUs constructed on a lot with a multi-unit dwelling pursuant to Government Code Section 66323, subdivision (a)(4). Lot coverage requirements pursuant to Section 106.42.015(E)(3) are applicable.

D. Junior accessory dwelling unit. A JADU is allowed on any lot zoned for single-family dwellings where the primary dwelling is a single-family dwelling on the lot.

1. Requirements. A unit is considered a JADU provided each of the following standards are met:
a. The unit is created within the walls of the proposed or existing single-family residence, including attached garages.
b. The unit does not exceed 500 square feet of interior livable space as defined in Section 106.42.015 (E)(4)(a).
c. The unit has at least an efficiency kitchen. The efficiency kitchen shall be removed if the JADU ceases.
d. The unit has bathroom facilities that are either separate from or shared with the residence in which the unit is contained.
e. The unit has exterior access separate from the entrance to the dwelling in which it is contained.

2. Owner-occupancy. Owner-occupancy is not required for a JADU if the owner is a governmental agency, land trust, or housing organization or if the JADU has separate sanitation facilities from the primary dwelling. However, if the JADU shares sanitation facilities with the primary dwelling, either the JADU or the primary dwelling shall be occupied by the owner.

Attachment 1- Exhibit A ITEM 8 Agenda Packet Page 60

3. Deed Restriction. Prior to the issuance of the building permit, the owner shall show proof of a recorded deed restriction. The deed restriction, which shall run with the land, including the transfer of ownership, will prohibit the following:
a. The JADU shall not be sold separately from the single dwelling. b. The JADU shall be restricted in size and attributes as described in Government Code § 66310-66342.

E. Common Development Standards
The following development standards apply to all ADUS and JADUs, whether approved under Subsection C (City’s local option) or Subsection D (State law), except where State law expressly precludes application of a local standard.

1. Setback requirements. An ADU shall comply with the setback requirements of the applicable zoning district except that the interior side and rear yard setbacks may be four feet. a. Notwithstanding subsection B.1. above, no setback is required for the conversion of an existing living area or accessory structure to an ADU, including a structure reconstructed in the same location and to the same dimensions as the existing structure. b. An ADU may not encroach into or be constructed in any public or private easement such as a utility easement unless the easement holder has provided written permission to construct the ADU in the manner proposed. To establish a rebuttable presumption of compliance with this requirement, the applicant may provide a written declaration under penalty of perjury affirming compliance with this requirement. The declaration shall be in a form acceptable to the city attorney.
c. Front yard setbacks shall not be applied to an attached or detached ADU if it would prohibit the construction of an ADU that does not exceed 800 square feet with four-foot side and rear yard setbacks.

2. Height limit. An ADU shall comply with the following height limits. a. An attached ADU shall comply with the height limits of the applicable zoning district except where State law allows greater height.
b. A detached ADU shall not exceed a maximum height of 18 feet, plus an additional two feet to accommodate roof pitch to align with roof pitch of the primary dwelling unit. c. Where the accessory dwelling unit is above a detached residential accessory structure, it shall not exceed 25 feet in height.

As part of the City’s 2026/2027 Road Resurfacing Project, staff has identified twelve signalized intersections where existing in-pavement inductive loop detection will be compromised by necessary pavement dig-outs. To preserve detection reliability and to prevent future impacts to the roadway pavement, these locations require conversion to above-ground detection systems.

Following a multi-year evaluation of available technologies, staff has determined that the MioVision camera-based detection platform is the only system that meets the City’s operational needs, compatibility requirements, and long-term reliability standards for the affected intersections.

Staff recommends the City Council adopt Resolution No. 2026-___, A Resolution of the City Council of the City of Citrus Heights, California, Authorizing a Sole-Source Purchase of Traffic Signal Detection Material.

Strategic Plan Alignment
This item is in alignment with the following City Council priority:

Goal: Maintain Public Infrastructure and Enhance All Modes of Transportation Fiscal Impact
The estimated total cost of the signal detection material is $336,575.27.

The recommended action will result in no impact to the Fiscal Year (FY) 2025/26 budget, the 2026/27 budget, nor the current Capital Improvement Program (CIP). The anticipated material purchase costs will be covered utilizing already budgeted Gas Tax funds (Fund 205).

Background and Analysis
On December 14, 2023, City Council approved a Three-Year Pavement Preservation Plan (PPP).

Construction of the 2025 Road Resurfacing Project is currently underway, and staff is advancing design for the 2026 and 2027 roadway segments.

Field investigations for the 2026/2027 road resurfacing limits identified multiple locations where pavement dig-outs are necessary at locations where existing in-pavement inductive loop detection is installed. Completion of the required pavement repairs will compromise the existing in-pavement loop systems at twelve signalized intersections, necessitating replacement of the detection material at each of the identified intersections.

To maintain operational continuity and avoid repeated pavement intrusion, all affected intersections must be upgraded to non-intrusive, above-ground detection systems.

Over the past two years, the City’s traffic engineering and signal maintenance teams have procured, installed, and evaluated several above ground detection technologies. Evaluation criteria included:

1. Detection accuracy and reliability under varying traffic and environmental conditions

2. Installation complexity and cost

3. Long-term maintenance requirements and cost

4. System integration with existing signal controllers and communications infrastructure

5. Manufacturer responsiveness, technical support, and product lifecycle stability

6. Long-term service costs
Based on this evaluation, one detection platform has demonstrated superior performance and compatibility with the City’s signal system architecture:
• MioVision – Camera-Based Detection and Data Analytics Platform Provides high-resolution video detection, advanced object classification, cloud-based analytics, and seamless integration with ATC-compliant controllers. Particularly effective at complex intersections with high turning movement volumes and multimodal activity.

Staff has also tested the following platforms. However; due to concerns regarding detection accuracy, long-term system costs and customer service concerns, these platforms are not currently recommended for installation:
• NoTraffic – AI-Driven Signal Detection System
• Iteris Radius – Radar Detection System
• Econolite EVO – Radar Detection System
• GridSmart – Video Detection System
Staff will continue to work with all signal detection manufacturers and when the items of concern are resolved and reliability of detection increases, staff will consider re-testing alternate platforms at sample intersections for potential future installs.

Subject: Authorize Sole Source Purchase for Traffic Signal Detection Material Date: June 10, 2026

Page 3 of 4 ends

Related to the 2026/2027 PPP, upgraded traffic signal detection is required at the following twelve intersections prior to pavement repairs:

Signalized Intersection
1 Auburn Blvd & Greenback Lane
2 Greenback Ln & Binet Dr
3 Greenback Lane & Fountain Square Dr
4 Greenback Ln & San Juan Ave
5 Greenback Ln & San Juan HS Ped Xing
6 Greenback Ln & Burich Pedestrian Xing
7 Greenback Ln & Birdcage Dr
8 Auburn Blvd & San Tomas Dr
9 Auburn Blvd & Halifax St
10 Auburn Blvd & Van Maren Ln
11 Auburn Blvd & Carriage Dr
12 Antelope Rd & Tupelo Dr
The combined estimated total cost for the required detection material is $336,575.27.

Purchasing Requirements and Sole Source Determination
The purchase of detection material constitutes procurement of materials and does not meet the definition of a “public work” project under Public Contracting Code §1101. Therefore, the Public Contract Code’s formal bidding requirements do not apply.

Under the City of Citrus Heights Purchasing Policy, purchases exceeding $100,000 typically require a formal competitive bid. However, the policy expressly allows Sole Source Purchasing when:

A contract may be awarded without competition when the City determines in writing, after conducting a good faith review of available sources, that there is only one source for the required supply, service or construction item.

Following a comprehensive technical evaluation, staff has determined that there is only one detection platform that meets the city’s requirements based on the following criteria:

1. Detection accuracy and reliability under varying traffic and environmental conditions

2. Installation complexity and cost

3. Long-term maintenance requirements and cost

4. System integration with existing signal controllers and communications infrastructure

5. Manufacturer responsiveness, technical support, and product lifecycle stability

6. Long-term service costs
ITEM 9 Agenda Packet Page 76
Subject: Authorize Sole Source Purchase for Traffic Signal Detection Material Date: June 10, 2026

Page 4 of 4 ends

As a result:
• There is only one recommended detection platform at this time. • Equivalent or interchangeable products are not recommended. • Competitive bidding would not yield functionally acceptable alternatives.

Therefore, it is recommended to waive the requirements for a formal bid process per the City’s purchasing policy, as procurement of the detection systems qualifies as a sole source purchase under the City’s purchasing policy. In addition, staff will discuss with the manufacturer options for economy of scale discounts, if applicable.

TO: Mayor and City Council Members
Ashley J. Feeney, City Manager
FROM: Regina Cave, General Services Director
Mary Poole, Operations Manager
SUBJECT: Award of 2026 Street Maintenance Services Agreements City Project Number GS 26-03
Recommendation
The City’s roadway network requires continuous maintenance to preserve pavement conditions, enhance public safety, and respond promptly to service requests. Routine and preventive maintenance—such as pothole repair, mill and fill, patch paving, concrete replacement, and related right-of-way work—is essential to extending pavement life and reducing significantly higher, long-term rehabilitation costs.

To ensure adequate capacity and operational flexibility, the City issued a competitive Request for Proposals (RFP), seeking qualified contractors to provide on-call street maintenance services.

After completing a comprehensive evaluation of all proposals and conducting interviews, staff determined that two firms demonstrated the strongest qualifications, experience, and ability to meet the City’s needs. Awarding contracts to both contractors will ensure continuity of operations, improve responsiveness, and provide flexibility in assigning work based on expertise and workload.

Staff recommends the City Council adopt Resolution No. 2026-___, A Resolution of the City Council of the City of Citrus Heights, California, Awarding Agreements for the 2026 Street Maintenance Services Contract (GS 26-03) to Arrow Drillers Inc. DBA Arrow Construction; and Central Valley Engineering and Asphalt, Inc.

Strategic Plan Alignment
This item is in alignment with the following City Council priority:

Goal: Maintain Public Infrastructure and Enhance all Modes of Transportation Objective: Issue Request for Proposal (RFP) and award new contracts for multi-year Pavement and Concrete Maintenance Services.

ITEM 11 Agenda Packet Page 85
Subject: 2026 Street Maintenance Services Agreements
Date: June 10, 2026

Page 2 of 3 ends

Fiscal Impact
Funding for on-call Street Maintenance Services is included in the adopted annual operating budget within the General Services Department, funded with Measure A Maintenance Funds and Gas Tax Funds. Work will be authorized through individual work orders, and expenditures will remain within approved budget appropriations.

The number of work orders varies significantly from year to year. Staff estimates 200–300 work orders annually, with associated costs ranging from approximately $800,000 to $1,000,000 per year, based on prior years’ activity. Final expenditure will be determined by actual work completed at the unit prices established in the contract documents.

Any expenditures beyond the amounts approved in the adopted General Services budget will be subject to the City’s purchasing policy and may require City Council authorization.

Background and Analysis
The City maintains an extensive roadway network that requires ongoing maintenance to ensure safe and reliable travel for residents, businesses, and visitors. Preventive maintenance is a critical component of the City’s pavement management strategy, reducing long-term costs by addressing issues before they deteriorate into more expensive repairs.

Historically, the City has procured on-call contract services to meet maintenance demands. The previous on-call contracts expire on June 30, 2026, necessitating the issuance of a new RFP to secure qualified contractors.

On April 7, 2026, the City issued a Request for Proposals (RFP) for the 2026 Street Maintenance Services contract, which includes on-call and emergency repair services for pavement, sidewalk, curb and gutter, ADA access, and related roadway infrastructure.

A mandatory pre-proposal meeting was held on April 15, 2026. Six proposals were received by the May 7, 2026, due date, from the following contractors:
• Action Asphalt Maintenance Inc.
• Arrow Drillers Inc. DBA Arrow Construction

Goal: Enhance Community Vibrancy and Engagement
ITEM 13 Agenda Packet Page 92
Subject: Consideration of renaming of Sayonara Drive
Date: June 10, 2026

Page 2 of 5 ends

Background
At the December 10, 2025, City Council meeting, during Items Requested by Council Members, two members of the City Council expressed interest in exploring the potential renaming of Sayonara Drive in recognition of the significant neighborhood reinvestment and revitalization currently occurring within the area. The street is undergoing a notable transition marked by the development of new owner-occupied housing and broader community improvement efforts.

Prior to the City’s incorporation in 1997, Sayonara Drive was widely known locally and regionally for longstanding social and physical challenges, including crime, overcrowding, traffic safety concerns, deferred building maintenance, and absentee property ownership.

Following incorporation, the City initiated focused revitalization efforts within the corridor.

These efforts included development of a Strategic Plan that guided public investments and improvements such as installation of street lighting, traffic and pedestrian safety enhancements, and the acquisition and demolition of uninhabitable structures.

The Strategic Plan established a framework for long-term neighborhood revitalization, including the development of replacement housing intended to promote stable, owner-occupied residences.

Through a partnership with Habitat for Humanity of Greater Sacramento, construction is currently underway to deliver 26 new single-family homes on parcels previously occupied by substandard housing units.

As this new residential community continues to take shape, the City has the opportunity to consider actions that reflect and support the neighborhood’s ongoing transformation. Renaming the street represents one potential step toward establishing a renewed identity distinct from historical conditions.

At the March 11, 2026, City Council meeting, staff presented information regarding the potential street renaming process. Following discussion, the City Council directed staff to conduct outreach and solicit input from property owners and tenants located along Sayonara Drive.

In response to that direction, staff initiated a mailed survey requesting feedback regarding whether property owners and tenants supported a potential street name change and, if so, soliciting possible street name suggestions and additional comments for Council consideration.

Government Code Section 34091.1 authorizes the City Council to change the name of any city street through adoption of a resolution. A copy of the Resolution must be forwarded to the Board of Supervisors of the County of Sacramento as required by Government Code Section 34092.

Fiscal Impact
Should the renaming of Sayonara Drive proceed, costs would be incurred for staff time to administer the naming process, along with minor public outreach expenses (e.g., advertising, social media promotion, informational materials, or similar efforts). In addition, direct costs would be associated with the replacement of street signage. The estimated cost for replacement ITEM 13 Agenda Packet Page 93
Subject: Consideration of renaming of Sayonara Drive
Date: June 10, 2026

Page 3 of 5 ends

of all Sayonara street name signs is approximately $10,700 total including installation. A total of eight signs would require replacement, including two large mast arm signs over Sunrise Boulevard, requiring traffic control.

Discussion
On March 12, 2026, surveys were mailed to all property owners and tenants along Sayonara Drive (Attachment 1) requesting input regarding the potential renaming of the street. While the overall response rate was relatively low, the results indicate that support for the name change was concentrated primarily among future homeowners associated with the Habitat for Humanity (HFH) project, while a majority of the remaining respondents expressed opposition to the change. Additional participation details and survey feedback are summarized below.

Community Feedback Highlights
The survey responses reflected differing perspectives regarding the identity and future of Sayonara Drive.

Support for Revitalization:

Respondents opposed to the name change generally viewed the proposal as symbolic and questioned whether it would result in meaningful neighborhood improvements. Several comments suggested that City efforts and resources would be better focused on infrastructure upgrades, maintenance, enforcement, and additional neighborhood improvements. Others noted that the street’s historical reputation is not widely known today and expressed concern regarding the potential inconvenience or costs associated with a street name change.

Opposition & Practical Concerns:

Some respondents are hesitant about the name change, with many viewing it as more symbolic than impactful. Residents suggested prioritizing infrastructure, enforcement, and street improvements. Some noted the community’s positive character and that the name’s history isn’t ITEM 13 Agenda Packet Page 94

widely known. Others raised questions about using public funds for a change they’re unsure would make a meaningful difference.

Community Outreach
The City conducted public outreach through a mailed survey and direct notifications. The survey packet included an invitation to an informational community meeting held on April 15, 2026, at City Hall. This meeting offered residents and property owners a venue to ask questions, share feedback, and discuss the proposal. No members of the public attended the session. Additionally, the City mailed a subsequent notice to all stakeholder parties regarding tonight's public meeting.

Street Name Considerations
Survey respondents were also invited to provide potential replacement street names should the City Council choose to move forward with renaming Sayonara Drive. The submitted name suggestions are included in Attachment 2 for reference and consideration.

Summary
The survey results and community feedback reflect a range of perspectives regarding the proposed street name change. While many respondents associated with the Habitat for Humanity project expressed support for the proposal as part of the neighborhood’s revitalization, other respondents expressed a preference for focusing City efforts on tangible neighborhood and infrastructure improvements rather than a symbolic change.

Direction Requested
Staff requests that the City Council review the information presented in this report and provide direction regarding the following options:

Option 1: Select a street name and adopt a resolution renaming Sayonara Drive and direct staff to proceed with necessary actions to implement the change.

Option 2: Maintain the existing street name and take no further action.

If Option 1 is selected, staff will proceed with implementation of the street name change, including ordering and installing new signage and notifying affected property owners and tenants of the upcoming change. The anticipated implementation timeline is approximately 8–12 weeks, depending on signage fabrication and coordination with relevant agencies. Staff notes that the names listed in Table 1 have been reviewed and meet the initial criteria for consideration. The City Council is requested to select a preferred street name for adoption. If the Council selects a name not included in the survey responses, the proposed name will be reviewed by staff for consistency with applicable street naming standards prior to implementation.

CITY COUNCIL STAFF REPORT

MEMORANDUM
DATE: June 10, 2026
TO: Mayor and City Council Members
Ashley J. Feeney, City Manager
FROM: Regina Cave, General Services Director
Meghan Huber, Economic Development & Community Engagement Director SUBJECT: America’s 250 Year Anniversary Mural Installation at City Hall Recommendation
On May 13, 2026, staff requested City Council authorization to allow Citrus Heights Arts (CH Arts) to install a mural on an exterior wall of City Hall in support and celebration of America’s 250 Year Anniversary, and further authorizing an allocation of $6,000 in Community Support Grant funds to help fund the mural efforts. Council approved the resolution with staff’s recommendations and further directed staff and Citrus Heights Arts to return to Council for approval of the proposed mural.

Staff recommends the City Council adopt the following:

1. Resolution No. 2026-____, A Resolution of the City Council of the City of Citrus Heights, California, Approving the Recommended Mural as Voted on by the Public for Installation at City Hall.

Strategic Plan Alignment
This item is in alignment with the following City Council priority:

Goal: Enhance Community Vibrancy and Engagement
Objective: Identify and pursue partnership opportunities that will continue to foster vibrant, accessible, and community-inspired public-facing art installations to engage, connect, and celebrate local creativity together.

Fiscal Impact
This requested action has no fiscal impact as Council previously authorized an allocation of $6,000 from the 2025/2026 Community Support Grant program to support these efforts. The allocation will be assigned to CH Arts as the grant recipient specifically to support the mural installation.

ITEM 14 Agenda Packet Page 103
Subject: America 250 Year Anniversary Mural Installation at City Hall Date: June 10, 2026

Page 2 of 2 ends

Background and Analysis
In February 2026, CH Arts requested consideration for collaboration on a mural to be installed on the exterior of City Hall. The proposal was to install a timeless piece that would reflect the identity, history and character of Citrus Heights, while celebrating America’s 250 Year Anniversary. On May 13, 2026, staff requested City Council authorize CH Arts to plan and install a mural on City Hall in advance of July 4th and ahead of the city’s Stars & Stripes Celebration. Council was presented with several conceptual renderings of what the mural could look like. The proposal by CH Arts included public engagement through social media. Council authorized funding support and approval to plan for a mural, however, directed that CH Arts provide concepts to the public to vote on and return to Council for final approval.

Beginning May 20, 2026, CH Arts began releasing email notifications and social media efforts to engage the public to vote on their top design out of four concepts released. Of the four concepts provided to the public for consideration (attached), 834 votes were tallied. The following are the results of the voting:
• Option 2 received the most support at 276 votes
• Option 3 received 240 votes
• Option 1 received 171 votes
• Option 4 received 147 votes
Although the conceptual designs were created using AI technology given the condensed schedule, the outcome will be a hand painted mural, completed by a mural artist. The artist will have reasonable flexibility to adjust the mural’s placement and positioning within the approved project area as needed to achieve the best artistic and site-specific outcome. The mural is intended to be a celebration of America’s 250 Year Anniversary as well as a celebration of the Citrus Heights community. While the mural’s design does not lend towards an expiration date, it is at the discretion of the City Council and city management to remove the mural in the future to support other Council or community priorities, or to allow for rotating art displays consistent with the intentions around the art alcove when incorporated into the City Hall building design.

Following final mural selection and any direction provided by the City Council, staff will work with CH Arts to execute a grant agreement memorializing the approved funding allocation, project scope, and implementation details. The agreement may address items such as the duration of the mural exhibition, any requested modifications to the artwork, future rotation opportunities, and other project considerations. Consistent with other City grant programs, the agreement will also include standard funding requirements, including documentation of eligible expenses, receipts, and a post-project report summarizing project outcomes and use of funds.

CITY COUNCIL STAFF REPORT

MEMORANDUM
DATE: June 10, 2026
TO: Mayor and City Council Members
Ashley J. Feeney, City Manager
FROM: Meghan Huber, Economic Development & Community Engagement Director SUBJECT: Citrus Heights Arts Grant Reallocation Request Recommendation
Receive a request from Citrus Heights Arts to amend the approved use of a Fiscal Year 2025/26 Non-Profit Community Support Fund award and provide direction.

Strategic Plan Alignment
This item is in alignment with the following City Council priority:

Fiscal Impact
There would be no fiscal impact associated with the reallocation of the awarded $12,000 grant funding for alternative or rescheduled use.

Background and Analysis
The Non-Profit Community Support Fund (NCSF) provides limited one-time funding to nonprofit organizations that deliver programs and services benefiting Citrus Heights residents.

On September 10, 2025, the City Council approved Fiscal Year 2025/26 Non-Profit Community Support Fund awards following recommendations from the City Council Quality of Life Committee. As part of that action, Citrus Heights Arts received a $12,000 grant award to support ArtBeat, a planned community arts event intended to provide arts programming, cultural experiences, and community engagement opportunities for Citrus Heights residents.

On June 1, 2026, Citrus Heights Arts submitted a request seeking authorization to modify the approved use of the grant funds. In its request, the organization indicated that due to shifting ITEM 15 Agenda Packet Page 108
Subject: Citrus Heights Arts Grant Reallocation Request Date: June 10, 2026

Page 2 of 2 ends

conditions and lower-than-anticipated vendor commitments, it could not deliver ArtBeat at the quality level envisioned and determined it was prudent to pause the event rather than move forward with a reduced experience.

As an alternative, Citrus Heights Arts requests authorization to use the previously awarded funds to support the Art in City Hall exhibition program scheduled for July 2026 as well as a mural project. The funding request and itemized budgets are provided as exhibits to this agenda item.

Because the grant award was approved by the City Council for a specific purpose, staff is bringing the request forward for Council consideration and direction.

GRANT REALLOCATION REQUEST
Citrus Heights Arts
June 1, 2026
Mayor Taft, Vice Mayor Middleton, and Council Members,
Citrus Heights Arts formally requests approval to reallocate the grant funds awarded for ArtBeat to support two vital community initiatives: the Art in City Hall exhibition scheduled for July 9, 2026, and our upcoming Mural Project.

Our primary goal for ArtBeat has always been to deliver the high-quality, vibrant experience our community deserves. Due to shifting economic conditions and lower than anticipated vendor commitments, we determined that we could not meet the operational standards necessary to produce the event at the level expected by our organization, our partners, and the community. An event of this scale requires strong alignment among municipal partners, vendors, sponsors, and supporting infrastructure. When those critical elements are not fully in place, the most responsible course of action is to pause, reassess, and protect the integrity of the event’s vision rather than deliver a diminished experience.

Reallocating these funds will ensure the City’s investment continues to directly support local artists, public engagement, and robust arts programming while preserving the community benefit intended by the original grant award.

As detailed in our project proposals, the funds will be utilized to fully fund and execute the following two programs:

Art in City Hall
TOTAL PROJECT BUDGET: $7,250
A public gallery exhibition showcasing the work of local and regional artists within City Hall. Funding supports promotion, banners, opening and closing receptions, live entertainment, decorations, photography, signage, and printed exhibition guides necessary to present a high-quality public art exhibition.

The Mural Project
TOTAL PROJECT BUDGET: $8,000 • TOTAL AREA: 1,248 SQ. FT.

A community beautification initiative comprising 52 individual mural squares (4' x 6' each). Funding directly provides $2,000 in artist stipends distributed among 4 local artists ($500 each), paint supplies, surface preparation, professional cleanup, and active community volunteer support.

Together, these projects maximize public impact by transforming civic spaces with both indoor gallery curation and large-scale outdoor public art.

ITEM 15 Agenda Packet Page 110
If the Council does not approve this requested reallocation, Citrus Heights Arts requests authorization to reschedule ArtBeat and utilize the awarded funds for that event at a future date.

Thank you for your consideration and continued partnership.
