SUBJECT: Adopt a Resolution of the City Council of the City of Clayton Allowing for Video and Teleconference Meetings as Needed during the COVID-19 State of Emergency Under AB 361
___________________________________________________________________________
RECOMMENDATION
Adopt a Resolution of the City Council allowing for video and teleconference meetings as needed during the COVID-19 state of emergency under AB 361.
BACKGROUND
Last year, the State Legislature passed and Governor Newsom signed AB 361 which continues many of the provisions related to the Brown Act that were in place under Executive Orders, which expired September 30, 2021 that allowed for video and teleconferencing during the state of emergency. Since AB 361 has been signed into law, the City can continue to meet virtually until such time as the Governor declares the State of Emergency due to COVID-19 over and measures to promote social distancing are no longer recommended by the County Health Officer.
On September 20, 2021, February 2, 2022, March 1, 2022, April 15, 2022, June 14, 2022, July 5, 2022 and August 9, 2022 (see attachment), the Contra Costa County Health Officer issued recommendations for safely holding public meetings and continues to encourage on-line meetings over in-person public meetings if feasible. If in-person meetings occur, the County Health Officer recommends physical distancing of six feet of separation between all attendees to the extent possible. The proposed resolution provides that the City Council and all subsidiary City boards and commissions may choose to hold fully virtual video and teleconference meetings while the state of emergency is still in effect and physical distancing is recommended.
In order to continue to be able to hold video and teleconference meetings as needed for COVID/public-health related reasons, the City Council will need to review and make Subject: Resolution Allowing for Video and Teleconference Meetings during the COVID-19 State of Emergency Under AB 361
Date: August 16, 2022
findings every thirty days that the state of emergency continues to directly impact the ability of the members to meet safely in person and that state or local officials continue to impose or recommend measures to promote physical distancing.
FISCAL IMPACT
None.

Recommendations for safely holding public meetings
Each local government agency is authorized to determine whether to hold public meetings in person, on-line (teleconferencing only), or via a combination of methods. The following are recommendations from the Contra Costa County Health Officer to minimize the risk of COVID 19 transmission during a public meeting.
1. Online meetings (i.e. teleconferencing meetings) are encouraged, where practical, as these meetings present the lowest risk of transmission of SARS CoV-2, the virus that causes COVID 19. This is particularly important when community prevalence rates are high. Our current trends as of August 9, 2022 in Covid-19 case rate, test positivity, Covid-19 hospitalizations, and Covid-19 wastewater surveillance are stable, but still remain high at this time. In addition to this, the predominant variant of Covid-19 being identified continues to be the Omicron variant and it’s subvariants the impact of which on the spread of Covid-19 has shown to dramatically increase COVID-19 transmission.
2. If a local agency determines to hold in-person meetings, offering the public the opportunity to attend via a call-in option or an internet-based service option is recommended, when possible, to give those at higher risk of and/or higher concern about COVID-19 an alternative to participating in person.
3. A written safety protocol should be developed and followed. It is recommended that the protocol require social distancing, where feasible – i.e. six feet of separation between attendees; and consider requiring or strongly encouraging face masking of all attendees and encouraging attendees to be up-to-date on their COVID-19 vaccine.
4. Seating arrangements should allow for staff and members of the public to easily maintain at least six-foot distance from one another at all practicable times.
5. Consider holding public meetings outdoors. Increasing scientific consensus is that outdoor airflow reduces the risk of COVID-19 transmission compared to indoor spaces. Hosting events outdoors also may make it easier to space staff and members of the public at least 6 feet apart. If unable to host outdoors, consider ways to increase ventilation and flow of the indoor space to reduce the risk of COVID-19 while indoors.
6. Current evidence is unclear as to the added benefit of temperature checks in addition to symptom checks. We encourage focus on symptom checks as they may screen out individuals with other Covid-19 symptoms besides fever and help reinforce the message to not go out in public if you are not feeling well.
7. Consider a voluntary attendance sheet with names and contact information to assist in contact tracing of any cases linked to a public meeting.

AGENDA REPORT
TO: HONORABLE MAYOR AND COUNCILMEMBERS
FROM: Larry Theis, City Engineer
DATE: August 16, 2022
SUBJECT: A Resolution Authorizing the City Manager and the City Engineer to Execute Caltrans Right of Way Certifications on Behalf of the City of Clayton ___________________________________________________________________________
RECOMMENDATIONS
It is recommended the City Council adopt the proposed Resolution authorizing the City Manager and the City Engineer to execute Caltrans Right of Way Certifications on behalf of the City.
BACKGROUND
In order to obtain state and federal aid assistance in connection with state and federally funded road projects, and for the California Department of Transportation (Caltrans) to approve the projects for advertising, it is necessary that the City certify to Caltrans that the right of way necessary for the proper execution of projects will be or has been acquired.
DISCUSSION
Currently, the City Council will be required to approve the right of way certification for each project. Due to the relative infrequency of the City Council meetings, the current setup may potentially cause delays to project schedules. Caltrans will accept right of way certifications signed by the City Manager or by the City Engineer, or their designees, if the City Council adopts a resolution authorizing him or her to sign the certification.
FISCAL IMPACT:
There is no direct cost to designating that the City Engineer or City Manager may sign right of way certifications, although streamlining the approval process may assist the City in ensuring that it can receive applicable state and federal assistance in a timely fashion.

TO: HONORABLE MAYOR AND COUNCILMEMBERS
FROM: Janet Calderon, City Clerk
DATE: August 16, 2022
SUBJECT: Designation of Voting Delegate and Alternate Delegate for League of California Cities 2022 Annual Conference being held September 7 through 9, in Long Beach and the City’s position on League Conference General Resolutions (documents were not available at the time of publishing, and will be provided as a supplemental document)
RECOMMENDATION
Consider designating a City Council member as the Voting Delegate and one member as the Alternate to represent the City of Clayton during the 2022 League of California Cities Annual Business Meeting.
BACKGROUND
The League of California Cities’ Annual Conference is scheduled for Wednesday, September 7 through Friday, September 9, 2022 in Long Beach. A Business Meeting will take place on Friday, September 9, 2022 at 11:30 am.
League Bylaws provide that each City is entitled to one vote in matters affecting municipal or League policy. Per the attached Annual Conference Voting Procedures, a City official must have in possession the City’s Voting Card and be registered with the Credentials Committee to cast that City’s vote. A voting card will be issued to the City officials designated by the City Council on the attached Voting Delegate Form.
Conference registration is required for voting delegates. The League Conference General Resolutions were not available at the time of publication, and will be provided as a supplemental document when available.
FISCAL IMPACT
During the last 13 fiscal years the vast majority of conference and training budget for all personnel of the City, including the City Council, was eliminated or significantly curtailed, except for League Division and Mayors’ Conference attendance. If the Council wishes to send a delegate, there are funds budgeted to cover the cost of Registration, transportation and lodging for the Voting Delegate. For the Alternate Delegate, all other conference expenses would be paid by the individual member.
Subject: Designation of Voting Delegate for 2022 League Annual Conference Date: August 16, 2022

League of California Cities Annual Conference & Expo – September 7-9, 2022 Cal Cities 2022 Annual Conference & Expo is scheduled for September 7-9, 2022 in Long Beach.

At this meeting, Cal Cities membership considers and acts on resolutions that establish Cal Cities policy.

Please complete the attached Voting Delegate form and return it to Cal Cities office no later than Friday, September 2. This will allow us time to establish voting delegate/alternate records prior to the conference.
Please view Cal Cities’ event and meeting policy in advance of the conference. • Action by Council Required. Consistent with Cal Cities bylaws, a city’s voting delegate and up to two alternates must be designated by the city council.
When completing the attached Voting Delegate form, please attach either a copy of the council resolution that reflects the council action taken, or have your city clerk or mayor sign the form affirming that the names provided are those selected by the city council.

The voting delegate and alternates must be registered to attend the conference. They need not register for the entire conference; they may register for Friday only. Conference registration will open by June 1 on the Cal Cities website. In order to cast a vote, at least one voter must be present at the Business Meeting and in possession of the voting delegate card. Voting delegates and alternates need to pick up their conference badges before signing in and picking up the voting delegate card at the Voting Delegate Desk.

The voting delegate card may be transferred freely between the voting delegate and alternates, but only between the voting delegate and alternates.

At the Business Meeting, individuals with the voting card will sit in a separate area. Admission to this area will be limited to those individuals with a special sticker on their name badge identifying them as a voting delegate or alternate.

AGENDA REPORT
TO: HONORABLE MAYOR AND COUNCILMEMBERS
FROM: Larry Theis, P.E., City Engineer
DATE: August 16, 2022
SUBJECT: Approve the Resolution of Intention to Establish a Community Facilities District related to the Diablo Meadows Project
RECOMMENDATION
Approve the attached Resolution of Intention to Establish a Community Facilities District related to the Diablo Meadows Project.
BACKGROUND
On February 2, 2021, the City of Clayton (the “City”) City Council (the “Council”) approved Resolution No. 05-2021, A Resolution Approving the Development Plan (DP-01-20); The Vesting Tentative Parcel Map (Map-01-2020); and the Tree Removal Permit (TRP-09-2020) for the Diablo Meadows Single Family Residential Project (the “Resolution”). The Resolution also approved the conditions of approval for the Diablo Meadows project (the “Project”), an eighteen (18) single family residential development located west of Mitchell Canyon Road and northwest of Herriman Court.
As a condition of the Project, DeNova Homes (the “Developer”) was conditioned to establish a Homeowner’s Association (“HOA”) for the purpose of funding and maintaining all public and private landscaping and stormwater facilities on or adjacent to the development. In addition, the Developer was conditioned to provide a funding mechanism to offset the Project’s financial impacts on the City’s streetlight system and to fund the stormwater improvements, should the HOA fail to maintain the stormwater improvements at a level that meets City standards.
The Developer has requested the City assist with the formation of Community Facilities District No. 2022-01 (Public Services) (“CFD No. 2022-01”) to satisfy these conditions. CFD No. 2022-01 will fund authorized services as described in the attached Resolution, Exhibit “A” (Authorized Services), which generally includes maintenance of City streetlights, maintenance, inspection, and replacement of stormwater facilities, and any costs associated with administering CFD No. 2022-01.
Subject: Approve the Resolution of Intention to Establish a Community Facilities District related to the Diablo Meadows Project
Date: August 16, 2022
________________________________________________________________________ The boundaries of CFD No. 2022-01 include only the Project area, which encompasses Assessor Parcel Numbers 121-090-023 through 046, as shown on the attached Boundary Map. The Boundary Map also identifies a future annexation area, which is contiguous with City limits. The future annexation area facilitates the annexation of future developments within the City into CFD No. 2022-01, with City Council approval and the unanimous approval of the applicable property owner(s), to offset the financial impact for each respective development.
The formation of CFD No. 2022-01 and approval of the future annexation area does not authorize the CFD to levy a special tax within the future annexation area at this time. The landowners or registered voters within such future annexation area will have the opportunity to review the special taxes applicable to their property, and vote to approve the annexation at some time in the future that the City considers annexing such property into the CFD. Upon completion of such annexation, the special tax will only be authorized to be levied within CFD No. 2022-01, and any portion of the future annexation area that has completed annexation procedures to annex into the CFD.
The City has received a signed petition from the Developer requesting the establishment of CFD No. 2022-01. The City is required to consider the formation of the CFD if a petition is filed with the City Clerk. The petition is attached for Council’s reference.
If the Council adopts the Resolution of Intention to Establish CFD No. 2022-01, the remaining process (Council meetings in bold) for the establishment of CFD No. 2022-01 will be as follows:
August 2022 Election materials are sent to the property owner(s) of the Project August 2022 City Clerk to record Boundary Map (within 15 days of the adoption of the Resolution of Intention)
September 2022 Community Facilities District Report filed with the City Clerk in advance of Public Hearing
September 2022 City Clerk publishes Notice of Public Hearing (at least once a minimum of 7 days prior to the Public Hearing)
September 20, 2022 City Council holds Public Hearing (at least 30, but not more than 60 days after adoption of the Resolution of Intention) and considers the following actions:
1) Adopt Resolution of Formation of CFD;
2) Adopt Resolution Calling Special Landowner Election for CFD;
3) Conduct Election;
Subject: Approve the Resolution of Intention to Establish a Community Facilities District related to the Diablo Meadows Project
Date: August 16, 2022
________________________________________________________________________ 4) Adopt Resolution Declaring Results of Special Landowner Election and Directing Recording of Notice of Special Tax Lien within CFD;
5) Take First Reading of Ordinance Levying Special Tax within CFD.
September 2022 City Clerk files the Notice of Special Tax Lien with the County Recorder’s Office (must be completed within 15 days of the adoption of the Resolution Confirming Results of Election and directing the recordation of the Notice of Special Tax Lien) October 4, 2022 Second Reading of Ordinance Levying Special Tax within CFD
October 2022 Publication of Ordinance (within 15 days after its passage)
FISCAL IMPACT
There will be no financial impact on the City’s General Fund. The Developer for the Project pays all costs associated with the formation of CFD No. 2022-01. The proposed annual maximum special tax rate for CFD No. 2022-01, in Fiscal Year 2022/23 dollars, is $951.71 per home. However, $348.52 of the maximum special tax corresponds to the maintenance of the Project stormwater improvements, and is not anticipated to be levied unless the HOA fails to maintain the improvements to City standards. The eighteen (18) homes within the Project area are the only parcels subject to the special tax upon formation of CFD No. 2022-01. As specified in the Resolution of Intention Exhibit B (Rate and Method of Apportionment), the annual maximum special tax shall be increased annually by applying the greater of the percentage increase, if any, in the Consumer Price Index for the San Francisco-OaklandHayward, CA (All Urban Consumers) for the prior year, or 3%, to the maximum special tax in effect for the prior fiscal year. Each annual adjustment of maximum special tax shall become effective on the subsequent July 1.

A RESOLUTION OF THE CITY COUNCIL OF THE CITY OF CLAYTON, CA STATING
THE INTENTION TO ESTABLISH A COMMUNITY FACILITIES DISTRICT AND
FUTURE ANNEXATION AREA
CITY OF CLAYTON
Community Facilities District No. 2022-01
(Public Services)
WHEREAS, under the Mello-Roos Community Facilities Act of 1982, Chapter 2.5 of Part 1 of Division 2 of Title 5, commencing at Section 53311, of the California Government Code (the “Act”), the City Council (the “Council”) of the City of Clayton (the “City”) is authorized to establish a community facilities district and to act as its legislative body;
WHEREAS, in order to finance the costs of certain public services permitted under the Act, the Council desires to form a new community facilities district; and WHEREAS, under Section 53339.2 of the Act, the Council further desires and hereby determines that it is in the public convenience and necessity to undertake proceedings to provide for future annexation of territory to the proposed community facilities district.
NOW, THEREFORE, the City Council of the City of Clayton resolves as follows:
1. Authority. This Council proposes to conduct proceedings to establish a community facilities district and future annexation area pursuant to the Act.
2. Name of CFD; Name of Future Annexation Area. The name proposed for the community facilities district is “City of Clayton Community Facilities District No. 2022-01 (Public Services)” (the “CFD”).
The name proposed for the territory proposed to be annexed into the CFD in the future is “City of Clayton Community Facilities District No. 2022-01 (Public Services) (Future Annexation Area)” (the “Future Annexation Area”).
3. Boundaries Described. The proposed boundaries of the CFD and the Future Annexation Area are as shown on the map on file with the City Clerk.
Those boundaries are hereby preliminarily approved and reference is hereby made to the boundary map for further particulars. The City Clerk is hereby directed to record, or cause to be recorded, the map of the boundaries of the CFD and the Future Annexation Area in the office of the Contra Costa County Recorder within 15 days after the date of adoption of this Resolution, but in any event no later than 15 days prior to the public hearing date specified below.
Parcels within the Future Annexation Area shall be annexed to the CFD only with
the unanimous approval (each, a “Unanimous Approval”) of the owner or owners of each parcel or parcels at the time that parcel or those parcels are annexed, without any requirement for further public hearings or additional proceedings.
4. Services. The type of services (the “Services”) proposed to be financed by the CFD and the Future Annexation Area pursuant to the Act shall consist of those listed in Exhibit A hereto and hereby incorporated herein. The City intends to provide the Services on an equal basis in the original territory of the CFD and, when it has been annexed to the CFD, the Future Annexation Area.
This Council hereby finds and determines that the public interest will not be served by allowing the property owners in the CFD and the Future Annexation Area to enter a contract in accordance with Section 53329.5(a) of the Act.
5. Special Tax. Except to the extent that funds are otherwise available to the CFD to pay for the Services, a special tax (the “Special Tax”) sufficient to pay the costs thereof, secured by recordation of a continuing lien against all non-exempt real property in the CFD, will be levied annually within the CFD, and collected in the same manner as ordinary ad valorem property taxes, or in such other manner as this Council or its designee may determine, including direct billing of the affected property owners. The proposed rate and method of apportionment of the Special Tax among the parcels of real property within the CFD in sufficient detail to allow each landowner within the proposed CFD to estimate the maximum amount such owner will have to pay, are described in Exhibit B attached hereto and hereby incorporated herein (the “Rate and Method”). This Council hereby finds that the provisions of Section 53313.6, 53313.7 and 53313.9 of the Act (relating to adjustments to ad valorem property taxes and schools financed by a community facilities district) are inapplicable to the proposed CFD.
As required by Section 53339.3(d) of the Act, the Council hereby determines that the special tax proposed to pay for Services to be supplied within the Future Annexation Area shall be equal to any special tax levied to pay for the same Services in the existing CFD, except that a higher or lower tax may be levied within the Future Annexation Area to the extent that the actual cost of providing the Services in the Future Annexation Area is higher or lower than the cost of providing those Services in the existing CFD. In so finding, the Council does not intend to limit its ability to levy a special tax within the Future Annexation Area to provide new or additional services beyond those supplied within the existing CFD.
6. Exempt Property. The Rate and Method describes property exempt from the Special Tax for the CFD. If a portion of the property within the CFD becomes exempt for any reason, wholly or in part, from the levy of the Special Tax, this Council will, on behalf of the CFD, increase the levy to the extent necessary upon the remaining property within the CFD that is not exempt in order to yield the annual expenses of the CFD, if any, subject to the provisions of the Rate and Method and the Act regarding limitations on maximum annual Special Tax rates and annual increases in the annual Special Tax levy.
7. Election and Unanimous Approval. The levy of the Special Tax shall be subject to the approval of the qualified electors within the CFD at a special election. The proposed voting procedure shall be by approval of the qualified
landowner voters within the proposed CFD at a special election.
A special tax shall be levied in the Future Annexation Area only with the Unanimous Approval of the owner or owners of each parcel or parcels at the time that parcel or those parcels are annexed, without any requirement for further public hearings or additional proceedings.
8. CFD Report. The City Manager (or deputy or designee thereof) is hereby directed to study the proposed Services and to make, or cause to be made, and file with the City Clerk a report in writing (the “CFD Report”), which shall be a part of the record of the public hearing hereinafter specified and which shall present the following:
(a) A description of the Services that will be required to adequately meet the needs of the CFD.
(b) An estimate of the fair and reasonable cost of the Services and incidental expenses in connection therewith, and all other related costs.
9. Public Hearing. Tuesday, September 20, 2022, at 7:00 p.m. or as soon as possible thereafter, in the City Council Chamber located at Hoyer Hall, Clayton Community Library, 6125 Clayton Road, Clayton, California, are hereby appointed and fixed as the time and place when and where this Council, as legislative body for the CFD, will conduct a public hearing on the establishment of the CFD and the Future Annexation Area, and consider and finally determine whether the public interest, convenience and necessity require the formation of the CFD and the Future Annexation Area and the levy of the Special Tax. Should the City determine that, due to a state of emergency or public health concerns, the meeting at which the hearing will be held will be held virtually in accordance with AB 361 or other applicable law, information to that effect will be posted on the City’s website as soon as such information is available, and if possible, will be included on the meeting agenda for the public hearing.
10. Notice of Hearing. The City Clerk is hereby directed to cause notice of the public hearing to be given by publication one time in a newspaper published in the area of the CFD and the Future Annexation Area. The publication shall be completed at least 7 days before the date of the public hearing specified above.

The Special Tax consists of two parts, Special Tax A and Special Tax B. “Special Tax A” – means the Special Tax to be levied in each Fiscal Year to fund the Special Tax Requirement for Authorized Services, excluding Contingent Services.
“Special Tax B (Contingent)” – means the Special Tax to be levied in each Fiscal Year to fund the Special Tax Requirement for Contingent Services. “Special Tax Component” means one of the following Special Taxes: Special Tax A or Special Tax B (Contingent).
“Special Tax Requirement” means for each Special Tax Component, the amount necessary in any Fiscal Year to (i) pay for Authorized Services, including Contingent Services if needed, (ii) pay the Administrative Expenses, (iii) cure any delinquencies in the payment of Special Taxes levied in prior Fiscal Years (based on delinquencies in the payment of Special Taxes which have already taken place) or are expected to occur in the current Fiscal Year, and (iv) to create or replenish reserve funds for Administrative Expenses, or future Authorized Services including capital replacements.
“Taxable Property” means all the Assessor’s Parcels within CFD No. 2022-01 which are not exempt from the Special Tax pursuant to law or Section E. “Tax-Exempt Property” means all the Assessor’s Parcels not subject to the CFD Special Tax pursuant to Section E.
“Tax Zone” means a mutually exclusive geographic area within which the Special Tax may be levied pursuant to this RMA. All property within CFD No. 2022-01 at the time of CFD formation is within Tax Zone 1. Additional Tax Zones may be created when property is annexed to CFD No. 2022-01, and a separate Maximum Special Tax and Rate and Method of Apportionment of Special Tax may be identified for property within the new Tax Zone at the time of such annexation.
The Assessor’s Parcels included within a new Tax Zone established when such Parcels are annexed to CFD No. 2022-01 shall be identified by Assessor’s Parcel Number in a Unanimous Approval Form that is to be executed and notarized by the owner(s) of the Parcels at the time of annexation.
“Unanimous Approval Form” means a form provided by the Administrator that is executed by the owner of fee title to a Parcel or Parcels to be annexed into CFD No. 2022-01 that constitutes the Property Owner’s approval and unanimous vote in favor of annexing into CFD No. 2022-01, and the levy of the Special Tax against the Parcel or Parcels being annexed pursuant to the RMA and which identifies any Tax Zone applicable to the Parcel or Parcels that are being annexed. “Undeveloped Property” means, for each Fiscal Year, all Taxable Property not classified as Developed Property.
B. DATA COLLECTION FOR ANNUAL TAX LEVY
Each Fiscal Year, the Administrator shall identify the current Assessor’s Parcel numbers for all Parcels of Developed Property and Undeveloped Property within CFD No. 2022-01 and the applicable Tax Zone for each Parcel of Taxable Property. The Administrator shall also determine: (i) the Land Use of each
Assessor’s Parcel of Developed Property, (ii) the number of Dwelling Units on each Parcel of Residential Property, and (iv) the Special Tax Requirement for each Special Tax Component.
In any Fiscal Year, if it is determined that (i) a parcel map for a portion of property in CFD No. 2022-01 was recorded after January 1 of the prior Fiscal Year, (ii) because of the date the parcel map was recorded, the Assessor does not yet recognize the new Parcels created by the parcel map, and (iii) one or more of the newly-created Parcels meets the definition of Developed Property, the Administrator shall calculate the Special Tax for the property affected by recordation of the parcel map by determining the Special Tax that applies separately to each newly-created Parcel, then applying the sum of the individual Special Taxes to the Parcel that was subdivided by recordation of the parcelmap.
C. MAXIMUM SPECIAL TAXES
1. Maximum Special Taxes
The Maximum Special Taxes for Fiscal Year 2022-23 for a Parcel of Developed Property shall be determined by reference to Table 1 below:
Table 1
Land Use Special Tax Component Maximum Special Tax
Residential Property Special Tax A1 $348.52 per Dwelling Unit Residential Property Special Tax B (Contingent Services) 2 $603.21 per Dwelling Unit Residential Property Subtotal Special Tax A and B $951.73 per Dwelling Unit 1Special Tax A is intended to annually fund Authorized Services, excluding Contingent Services. 2Special Tax B is intended to fund Contingent Services, if needed. Contingent Services are those Authorized Services that the HOA is responsible for maintaining. The City shall not levy Special Tax B to pay for Contingent Services if HOA maintains the Contingent Services to City standards. Should the City determine the HOA has failed to maintain the Contingent Services to City standards, then Special Tax B will be levied to provide funding for the Contingent Services.
No Special Tax shall be levied on Undeveloped Property.
2. Maximum Special Tax Increases
On July 1, 2023, and each July 1 thereafter, the Maximum Special Tax rates shall be increased by a percentage equal to the greater of (a) the percentage increase, if any, in the prior calendar year's annual change in the Consumer Price Index for All Urban Consumers for the Bay Area: San Francisco-Oakland-Hayward, and (b) three percent (3%). In the event the Consumer Price Index for all Urban Consumers for the Bay Area: San Francisco-Oakland-San Jose ceases to be published, the Maximum
Special Tax may be increased based on a comparable index as determined by Administrator at the Administrator’s discretion.
D. METHOD OF LEVY AND COLLECTION OF SPECIAL TAXES
The Special Taxes shall be levied annually each Fiscal Year according to the methodology below.
The Special Tax consists of two components: Special Tax A and Special Tax B (Contingent), and shall be levied commencing with the 2022-23 Fiscal Year, on each Parcel of Developed Property Proportionately as needed to satisfy the Special Tax Requirement for each Special Tax Component for the applicable Fiscal Year at up to the Maximum Special Tax for each Developed Property.
The Special Tax A is intended to be levied annually to fund Authorized Services, excluding Contingent Services. The Special Tax B (Contingent) is not intended to be levied annually but shall be levied in the event the City in its sole discretion determines that the HOA has defaulted in its obligation to provide the Contingent Services. A default of the HOA may be deemed to have occurred under each of the following circumstances, without exclusion of other circumstances in the City’s sole descretion:
• The HOA files for bankruptcy;
• The HOA is dissolved;
• The HOA fails to provide Contingent Services at the same level as the City provides similar services and maintains similar improvements throughout the City. If the HOA fails to provide Contingent Services, the City shall provide written notice to the HOA, and the HOA shall have thirty (30) days after written notice from the City, or such longer period as may be permitted by the City, to remedy the deficiency to the reasonable satisfaction of the City.
The Special Taxes for CFD No. 2022-01 shall be collected in the same manner and at the same time as ordinary ad valorem property taxes, provided, however, that the City may directly bill owners of Taxable Property and may collect Special Taxes at a different time or in a different manner if necessary to meet the financial obligations of the CFD.
E. EXEMPTIONS
Special Taxes shall not be levied on Public Property unless there is a leasehold interest of the character described by Section 53340.1(a). In addition, TaxExempt property shall also include but not be limited to Parcels categorized as Undeveloped Property, Property Owner Association Property, Restricted
Property, Parcels that receive a welfare exemption as described by Section 53340(c) of the Government Code, privately owned Parcels that are nondevelopable, such as common areas, wetlands, open space, remainder Parcels, Parcels with public or utility easements making impractical their utilization for other than the purposes set forth in the easement.
F. INTERPRETATION OF SPECIAL TAX FORMULA
The Council reserves the right to make administrative and technical changes to this document that do not materially affect the rate and method of apportioning Special Taxes. In addition, the interpretation and application of any section of this document shall be left to the Council’s discretion. Interpretations may be made by the Administrator or by resolution of the Council for purposes of clarifying any vagueness or ambiguity in this RMA.
G. TERM OF THE SPECIAL TAX
The Special Tax shall be levied indefinitely as necessary to pay the Special Tax Requirement for each Special Tax Component at up to the Maximum Special Tax for each Developed Property.
H. APPEAL OF SPECIAL TAX LEVY
The Administrator may establish such procedures, as it deems necessary to undertake the review of any such appeal. The Administrator shall interpret this Rate and Method of Apportionment and make determinations relative to the annual administration of the Special Tax and any Property Owner appeals, as herein specified. Any Property Owner who believes that the amount of the Special Tax levied on their Assessor's Parcel is in error shall first consult with the Administrator regarding such error. If following such consultation, the Administrator determines that an error has occurred; the Administrator in consultation with the City Engineer shall take any of the following actions to correct the error:
Amend the Special Tax levy on the Property Owner's property tax bill for the current Fiscal Year, or
Have the CFD reimburse the Property Owner for the amount of overpayment for the current Fiscal Year if CFD funds are available, or Grant a credit against, eliminate, or reduce the future Special Taxes on the Property Owner's Assessor's Parcel(s) for overpayment for the current Fiscal Year.
If following such consultation and action (if any by the Administrator), the Property Owner believes such error still exists, such person may file a written notice with the City Engineer appealing the amount of the Special Tax levied on such Assessor's Parcel. If following such consultation and action (if any by the City Engineer), the Property Owner believes such error still exists, such person may file a written notice with the City Council appealing the amount of the Special Tax levied on such Assessor's Parcel. If the City Council determines an error exists; the Administrator shall take any actions as described above, to correct the error.
The decision of the City Council shall be final and binding to all persons.

[Type here] Agenda Item: 9(c)
STAFF REPORT
TO: HONORABLE MAYOR AND COUNCILMEMBERS
FROM: Reina J. Schwartz, City Manager
DATE: August 16, 2022
SUBJECT: Review and Provide Direction to Staff Regarding City Council Request Items – Open and Completed
RECOMMENDATION
Review and provide direction to staff regarding City Council Request items.
BACKGROUND
Each year, the City Council typically conducts a goal-setting session, identifying priorities for the coming year. When the City Council held their most recent goal-setting session in March 2022, the City Council asked that the City Manager periodically bring back to the City Council the list of outstanding Council Request Items from prior City Council meetings. The purpose for bringing the list back is to review what has been accomplished as well as help set priorities going forward given limited staff and financial resources.
Attached to this report is the list of Council Request items received since December 15, 2020, when the current City Manager began employment for the Council. The first pages identify those items that are still outstanding, with a status update for each. The remaining pages list all of the requests that have been completed with a brief summary status of the outcome.
FISCAL IMPACT
There is no direct financial impact to reviewing the list of requests, although completing the requests does take staff time and can take direct financial resources depending on the item.
It is beneficial for overall organizational performance to ensure that staff is focused on the highest priority items given limited resources.
