8 AGENDA ITEM NO. 2.
TO: Mayor and City Council
FROM: Administration
DATE: July 1, 2024
SUBJECT: Administration - Approval – Authorize the City Manager to enter into an agreement with the Jamison Family Community Property Trust for the lease of 1625 Shaw Ave., Suites 101 & 103, for approximately $205,000 per year.
ATTACHMENTS: 1. Proposed Lease Agreement
CONFLICT OF INTEREST
Councilmembers should consider recusal if a campaign contribution exceeding $250 has been received from the project proponent (developer, applicant, agent, and/or participants) within the preceding 12 months (Government Code 84308).
RECOMMENDATION
For the City Council to authorize the City Manager to enter into an agreement with Jamison Family Community Property Trust for the lease of 1625 Shaw Ave., Suites 101 & 103.
EXECUTIVE SUMMARY
In June of 2023 , City Council authorized a lease for 1625 Shaw, Suite 101 for the Information Technology Division. This initial term of the lease expires in June of 2025 with extensions available. The adjacent 3,370 square foot suite has become available and has been id entified as an ideal space for the Personnel and Risk Management Division. Leasing this space would mean the City is the sole lessor of 1625 Shaw Ave for a total of 8,448 square feet. A very competitive lease has been negotiated for the entirety of the b uilding for a five-year period with options for an extension for approximately $205,000 per year plus common area charges. The base rent will increase approximately 2.5% per year over the five -year lease. Staff is recommending that Council authorize the City Manager to enter in the lease agreement for this office space.
BACKGROUND
In June of 2023 City Council authorized a lease for 1625 Shaw, Suite 101 for the Information Technology Division, staff occupied the space in July of 2023. The current lease expires in June of 2025 with extensions available. The space has been ideal for the Information Technology 9 AGENDA ITEM NO. 3.
Division and has been a cost-effective means of providing high-quality and necessary office space. In addition the Information Technology Division staff have had a good experience in the leased space for the past year.
The adjacent 3,370 square foot suite has become available and has been identified as an ideal space for the Personnel and Risk Management Division. City Hall is beyond capacity at this time.
The Personnel and Risk Management Division is an ideal fit for the space and would allow the Economic Development, Housing, and Communications team to move from the Administration office into the current Personnel and Risk Management office. This wo uld also create several new meeting and/or break rooms and provide a small amount of extra room for future staff. Being adjacent to the Information Technology Division is also ideal as the City has infrastructure in place at the 1625 Shaw building as this leverages that infrastructure.
Leasing this space would mean the City is the sole lessor of 1625 Shaw Ave for a total of 8,448 square feet. A very competitive lease has been negotiated for the entirety of the building for a five-year period with options for an extension. Staff is recommending that Council authorize the City Manager to enter in the lease agreement for this office space.
The office location at 1625 Shaw Avenue, Suites 101 & 103, meets the City’s needs. The initial lease agreement is for five years with five optional one -year renewals. That should provide sufficient time to develop a plan for a more suitable and permanent space for both Divisions here on the City Hall campus area. Staff is recommending that Council authorize the City Manager to enter into the lease agreement for the office space at 1625 Shaw Ave., Suites 101 & 103.
FISCAL IMPACT
The cost for leasing both suites for office space is $205,000 per year plus an annual increase of
2.5% and common area charges starting on August 1, 2024. It is included in the FY24-25 budget.
REASON FOR RECOMMENDATION
The new leased building will provide the City an interim office space until a permanent facility becomes available on or near the City Hall campus area and address current space i ssues at City Hall.
ACTIONS FOLLOWING APPROVAL
The lease agreement with Jamison Family Community Property Trust will be executed and staff will begin moving on or after August 1, 2024.

ADDENDUM “A”
NOTICE TO OWNERS, BUYERS AND BUYERS
REGARDING HAZARDOUS WASTES OR
SUBSTANCES
AND UNDERGROUND STORAGE TANKS
Comprehensive federal and state laws and regulations have been enacted in the last few years in an effort to develop controls over the use, storage, handling, clean -up, removal and disposal of hazardous wastes or substances. Some of these laws and regulations, such as, for example, the so called "Superfund Act", provide for broad liability schemes wherein an owner, Buyer or other user of the property may be liable for clean -up costs and damages regardless of fault. Other laws and regulations set standards for the handling of asbestos or establish requirements for the use, modification, abandonment, or closing of underground storage tanks.
It is not practical or possible to list all such laws and regulations in this Notice. Therefore, owners, buyers and Buyers are urged to consult legal counsel to determine their respective rights and liabilities with respect to the issues described in this Notice as well as all other aspects of the proposed transaction. If hazardous wastes or substances have been, or are going to be used, stored, handled or disposed of on the property, or if the property has or may have underground storage tanks, it is essential that legal and technical advise be obtained to determine, among other things, what permits and approvals have been or may be required, if any, the estimated costs and expenses associated with the use, storage, handling, clean-up, removal or disposal of the hazardous wastes or substances and what contractual provisions and protections are necessary or desirable. It may also be important to obtain expert assistance for site Investigations and building Inspections. The past uses of the property may provide valuable information as to the likelihood of hazardous wastes or substances, or underground storage tanks being on the property.
Although Colliers Tingey International will disclose any knowledge it actually possesses with respect to the existence of hazardous wastes or substances, or underground storage tanks on the property, Colliers Tingey International has not made investigations or obtained reports regarding the subject matter of this Notice, except as may be described in a separate written document signed by Colliers Tingey International. Colliers Tingey International makes no representations regarding the existence or nonexistence of hazardous wastes or substances, or underground storage tanks on the property.
You should contact a professional, such as a civil engineer, geologist, industrial hygienist or other persons with experience in these matters to advise you concerning the property.
The term hazardous wastes or substances" is used in this Notice in its very broadest sense and includes, but is not limited to, petroleum base products, paints and solvents, lead, cyanide, DDT, printing inks, acids, pesticides, ammonium compounds, asbestos, PCBs and other chemical products.
Hazardous wastes or substances and underground storage tanks may be present on all types of real property. This Notice is therefore meant to apply to any transaction involving any type of real property, whether improved or unimproved.
Notwithstanding any other provision of this Lease, Lessee shall be permitted to use, handle, generate, treat, store or dispose of, or permit the use, handling, generation, treatment, storage or disposal of Hazardous Materials in, on, under, around or above the Premises or Property in connection with the operation of a professional office.

Providing that Lessee is not in default of this Lease, Lessor shall provide Lessee with an Option to Extend the term of the lease for two (2) periods of five (5) years each for the total space then under lease by Tenant in the Building. If Lessee elects to exercise such Option(s) to Renew, then Lessee will provide Lessor with written notice at least six (6) months prior to the expiration of the initial Lease Term or First Option Period. The rental rate for extension option shall be renegotiated between the parties and mutually agreed upon, based on the current Fair Market Rental Rates for professional office space, in the Clovis area submarket, at that time.

54. HVAC Unit Replacement Agreement:
It is hereby understood and agreed between the parties that Lessee shall remain responsible for all on- going repair and regular servicing of the Building’s HVAC equipment during the lease term. However, should replacement of any HVAC unit become necessary during the lease term, then Lessor shall pay for the cost of replacing any unit at that time. If Lessor fails to pay for all HVAC replacement costs and Lessee does so in connection with any replaced HVAC unit, Lessee shall be entitled to offset the replacement costs paid against any lease payments due and owing to Lessor under the lease agreement. If Lessor pays the costs for replacement of any HVAC units on the premises during the term of the lease, such costs shall be divided by one hundred twenty (120) and Lessee then shall be responsible to make monthly replacement cost payments to Lessor for that replacement/installation cost over a one hundred twenty (120) month period or until the Lease ends and Lessee vacates, whichever occurs first. (Example - $20,000 unit cost divided by 120 months equals $166.67 per month that Lessee shall repay to Lessor.
If the lease term is not extended beyond July 31, 2029, and Lessee vacates the Leased Premises, then the monthly replacement costs payments shall cease on the date the lease agreement officially expires.

It is understood and agreed, between the parties, that Lessee already leases and occupies 5078 rentable square feet within the subject building, on a sublease agreement, until May 31, 2025. As of June 1, 2025, that Lease will be automatically extended to coincide with this Lease for Suite 103. All terms and conditions of this Lease will apply to Lessee for the entire building with these clarifications:

36 AGENDA ITEM NO. 3.
TO: Mayor and City Council
FROM: Administration
DATE: July 1, 2024
SUBJECT: Administration - Approval – Waive Normal Purchasing Process and approve the purchase of replacement desktop computers and servers using competitively bid contracts with purchasing provisions for California State and Local government agencies.
ATTACHMENTS: 1. None
CONFLICT OF INTEREST
Councilmembers should consider recusal if a campaign contribution exceeding $250 has been received from the project proponent (developer, applicant, agent, and/or participants) within the preceding 12 months (Government Code 84308).
RECOMMENDATION
For the City Council to waive the normal purchasing process and approve the purchase of desktop computers and servers through the use of competitively bid contracts with purchasing provisions for California State and Local government agencies.
EXECUTIVE SUMMARY
Included in the 2024 -2025 Budget are funds to purchase computers for all departments and servers for applications. The computers and servers are to provide upgrades and replacement of obsolete, worn-out equipment and to equip new employees with computers. The computers are allocated to the various departments based on need. Upgrades are necessary to improve the work performance of clerical and technical positions. A portion of the computers to be purchased are to replace units that have high failure and repair rates or are unable to run upgraded software. Staff is recommending purchasing the replacement computers using previously competitively bid contracts with purchasing provisions for California State and Local government agencies.
BACKGROUND
The Information Services Division is requesting approval to purchase computers and servers through other competitively bid contracts by other agencies, such as the California Multiple Award Schedule (CMAS). With the proliferation of competitively bid contracts with “piggy-back” 37 AGENDA ITEM NO. 4.
provisions, the need to purchase in large quantities at one time is no longer necessary. These current contracts base their pricing on the ability of multiple State and Local government agencies to purchase equipment on an “as needed” bas is, while still passing along quantity discounts. Other examples of these contracts are the Western States Contracting Alliance (WSCA) and the California Communities Purchasing Program (CCPP) sponsored by the League of California Cities.
When purchasing computers on an as needed basis, the City will be able to set up and install the computers more efficiently when staffing is available, eliminating the need to have a large storage area for the computers and risk of potential loss due to theft or disaster. By purchasing when the computer is required, the City can still take advantage of price reductions.
As in the past, the City will continue to use the same evaluation criteria for selecting equipment.
This will include certification of the preloaded ope rating system and software, quality of components, software upgrade policy, price, compliance with the City’s standard specifications, product reliability, vendor reputation, and financial stability of the supplier and the computer manufacturer.
FISCAL IMPACT
There is $350,000 budgeted to fund the purchase of replacement computers, servers, related software, licensing and peripherals.
REASON FOR RECOMMENDATION
The computers and servers are needed to increase the stability of the computing environment, increase productivity and to replace worn-out equipment. Purchasing through current contracts will allow the City the flexibility to install computers and servers on an as needed basis, purchase the most recent configurations offered by the manufacturers, an d receive the latest price reductions offered.
ACTIONS FOLLOWING APPROVAL
The City will purchase the budgeted desktop computers and servers from current competitively bid contracts as they are required. As the units arrive, they will be set up and instal led to the department users that were designated to receive new computers during the budget process.

TO: Mayor and City Council
FROM: Administration
DATE: July 1, 2024
SUBJECT: Administration - Approval - Authorize the renewal of the next generation antivirus software subscription from the Center for Internet Security (CIS) in the amount of $72,105.00 per year for three years.
ATTACHMENTS: None
CONFLICT OF INTEREST
Councilmembers should consider recusal if a campaign contribution exceeding $250 has been received from the project proponent (developer, applicant, agent, and/or participants) within the preceding 12 months (Government Code 84308).
RECOMMENDATION
For the Council authorize the City Manager to execute a three (3) year agreement with the Center for Internet Security for the Next -Gen Antivirus software subscription for $216,315, payable at $72,105 each year.
EXECUTIVE SUMMARY
The cybersecurity lands cape continues to evolve, and new threats and vulnerabilities are introduced every day. The city’s current Next Generation Antivirus platform has proven very effective in keeping up with these challenges. The initial software subscription/agreement was for one year and it expires in August. To remain in compliance with the licensing, provide some cost certainty and reliability, it is recommended that the subscription be renewed for a three (3) year term.
BACKGROUND
To keep up with today’s cybersecurity challenges an updated, next-generation antivirus system is needed. These next-gen platforms, called Managed Endpoint Detection and Response (MDR) systems, provide more comprehensive security protection, they provide a dditional insight on vulnerabilities and detections, and they also use advanced algorithms and heuristics (instead of the traditional/static virus definition files) to detect both known and unknown (zero-day) malware.
Additionally, in 2022 the City signed up for cybersecurity insurance and one of the requirements for maintaining our coverage was to implement an MDR system. 39 AGENDA ITEM NO. 5.
Over the last year the City has been using the product and services from the Center for Internet Security (CIS). CIS is a non -profit organization that was specifically set up to bring both public agencies (Federal/State/Local) and private companies together to better mitigate and prevent cyber threats. Their MDR system and security operations center work jointly with the Cybersecurity and Infrastructure Agency (CISA), an agency of the US Department of Homeland Security. Also, as part of the City’s membership, additional services are available such as Cybersecurity Best Practices, Cyber Threats and Advisories, Incident Detection, Response, and Prevention, and Information Sharing.
The initial software subscription/agreement from CIS was for one year and it expires in August.
To provide some consistency, reliability and cost certainty with the system, and to remain in compliance with the licensing terms, staff recommends renewing the subscription from CIS for a three-year term for a total amount of $216,315 (payable annually at $72,105 per year).
FISCAL IMPACT
The cost of purchasing the upgraded licenses and maintenance is included in the I.T. Division budget for Fiscal Year 2024-2025.
REASON FOR RECOMMENDATION
To meet today’s cybersecurity challenges, address the requirements of the City’s cybersecurity insurance program and to remain in compliance, we must renew our licensing agreement. The MDR system from CIS has proven very effective as a next generation antivirus platform and the subscription / agreement will provide some stability and cost certainty for the next three years.
ACTIONS FOLLOWING APPROVAL
After Council approval, Staff will renew the MDR subscription agreement with the Center for Internet Security.

RECOMMENDATION
For the City Council to approve a resolution approving a side letter agreement with the Transit Employees Bargaining Unit to include part-time/extra-help bus drivers and part-time/extra-help van drivers and authorize the City Manager to execute the agreement.
EXECUTIVE SUMMARY
A new state law allows bargaining units to include in their MOU part-time, extra-help, temporary, and contract employees and requires engaging in the meet and confer process. The side letter agreement allows TEBU to represent extra-help bus drivers and extra -help van drivers an d defines those items in the MOU which apply to the new group of employees.
BACKGROUND
Assembly Bill 1484, which became effective January 1, 2024, requires temporary, part -time, contract, and extra-help employees who have been hired to perform the same or similar type of work that is performed by permanent employees represented by a recognized employee organization, to be automatically included in the same bargaining unit as the permanent full-time employees. The law requires the City to promptly participate in collective bargaining to establish certain employment conditions for the newly added temporary, part -time, extra -help, and contract employees.
43 AGENDA ITEM NO. 7.
The Transit Employees Bargaining Unit (TEBU) has requested the inclusion of part -time/extra help Bus Drivers and part-time/extra-help Van Drivers. Following the request, City management met with TEBU representatives to discuss revisions to the current MOU in relation to adding part-time employees and to specify which items pertain to only part -time employees, only full - time employees, or both part-time and full-time. The attached side letter has been agreed upon by TEBU and City management. When the current MOU expires in June 2025, the changes in the side letter will be incorporated into the successor MOU.
In addition, AB1484 requires , upon hire, the City to provide part-time, extra-help, contract, or temporary workers with their job description, wage rates, eligibility for benefits, anticipated length of employment, and procedures to apply for open, permanent positions.

59 AGENDA ITEM NO. 7.
TO: Mayor and City Council
FROM: General Services Department
DATE: July 1, 2024
SUBJECT: General Services – Approval - Reallocation of Capital Improvement Program Funds for Senior Center Tenant Improvements.
ATTACHMENTS: None
CONFLICT OF INTEREST
Councilmembers should consider recusal if a campaign contribution exceeding $250 has been received from the project proponent (developer, applicant, agent, and/or participants) within the preceding 12 months (Government Code 84308).
RECOMMENDATION
For City Council to approve the reallocation of Community Investment Program (CIP) funds to be used for the Clovis Senior Center tenant space improvements for the purpose of expanding usable senior center space.
EXECUTIVE SUMMARY
Within seven months of open ing, the new senior center is already at capacity, has added over 2,300 new members, and is providing services to approximately 600 seniors daily. A recent generous gift of $501,000 from the Carl and Lulu Mitchell Family Foundation has provided us with the opportunity to build out the additional 4,000 square feet of shell tenant space within the senior center, thereby providing additional programming space for the senior center. Council previously approved $1,500,000 in General Government Funds to the space for the purpose of City office space, however staff is requesting shifting those funds to allow the space to be used for senior center programming. Offsite office space will be leased to provide the needed additional office space.
BACKGROUND
On November 6, 2023, City Council approved expenditures in the amount of $1,500,000 to complete tenant improvements on the 4,000 square feet of incomplete space within the Clovis Senior Activity Center at Landmark Square. At that time, the plan was to build-out the shell tenant space to house the Personnel division, thereby solving overcrowding issues at City Hall.
Recently, however, 3,370 square feet of commercial office space located at 1625 Shaw Avenue 60 AGENDA ITEM NO. 8.
has become available in the same building as the Cit y’s Information Technology Division (IT).
Moving Personnel into the space adjacent to IT provides an excellent opportunity to negotiate a five-year lease for both office suites and allows for other uses for the 4,000 square feet of space within the senior center.
The newly constructed senior center has already reached capacity since opening in November 2023. By shifting Personnel to the Shaw Avenue space, the previously allocated tenant improvement funds can be utilized to expand senior center operations into the 4,000 square feet former tenant space. A recent generous gift of $501,000 from the Carl and Lulu Mitchell Family Foundation provides for funding to expand the usable senior center space while freeing funds for furniture and improvements at the Shaw Avenue location for Personnel, and cosmetic improvements at City Hall at the former Personnel space which will be repurposed for the Community Development, Housing and Communication Department.
When the senior center was designed, two kitchen storage areas and the custodian’s office were engineered to become a hallway into the additional space, with the storage and office space shifted into the newly annexed space. The additional 4,000 square feet will allow for a large room with a dividing wall, two res trooms, a lobby area with tables and chairs for cards or socializing, and storage space. This will allow for additional programming space within the busy center to further meet the needs of area senior citizens. Signage acknowledging the generous gift of t he Mitchell Family Foundation will be located on the exterior door of the new space, and within the interior.
FISCAL IMPACT
The Community Investment Program budget has already been allocated $1,500,000 of general government services funding for the purpos e of tenant improvements within the senior center.
The recent $501,000 gift allows for the ability to expand senior center operations into the former tenant space while allowing flexibility with general government services funds to prepare and furnish the new Personnel offices, and the Community Development, Housing and Communication Department space at City Hall (old Personnel offices).
REASON FOR RECOMMENDATION
Shifting the purpose of the 4,000 square feet vacant space within the senior center from Cit y offices to senior center programing space provides additional opportunities to provide services to area seniors and the community as a whole.
ACTIONS FOLLOWING APPROVAL
An architect will be selected and planning for the new space will begin. The project is expected to be completed in 18-24 months.

FROM: General Services Department
DATE: July 1, 2024
SUBJECT: General Services – Approval - Claim Rejection of the General Liability Claim on behalf of Natilidawn Gonzales.
ATTACHMENTS: None
CONFLICT OF INTEREST
Councilmembers should consider recusal if a campaign contribution exceeding $250 has been received from the project proponent (developer, applicant, agent, and/or participants) within the preceding 12 months (Government Code 84308).
RECOMMENDATION
Reject the General Liability Claim filed on behalf of Natilidawn Gonzales.
EXECUTIVE SUMMARY
On behalf of Natilidawn Gonzales (claimant), the City received a claim form on June 24, 2024, alleging the City of Clovis failed to train and supervise employees, and failed to provide a safe environment for students . It is recommended that the City reject the claim, send notice of rejection, and refer the matter to the City’s third-party administrator for liability claims for further investigation and handling.
BACKGROUND
On June 24, 2024, a revised General Liability Claim was received by the City of Clovis on behalf of Natilidawn Gonzales, by Downtown LA Law Group located in Los Angeles, CA. The claim was considered legally sufficient and timely. The c laim alleges the City of Clovis failed to properly train and supervis e their employees, failed to provide a safe and secure environment for students, and failed to properly and accurately inform Ms. Gonzales’ mother of a situation that occurred on the property of Clovis High School, 1055 Fowler Avenue, Clovis, CA.
The claimant seeks damages for pain and suffering and bodily injury. The claim has been filed as a “civil unlimited case”.
62 AGENDA ITEM NO. 9.
FISCAL IMPACT
Rejection of the claim does not result in any fiscal impact.
REASON FOR RECOMMENDATION
The incident occurred outside of the City’s jurisdiction, and the City has no involvement in this matter. It is recommended that the claim be rejected. The City’s liability is disputed, and although the claim is legally sufficient, the amount of the alleged damages sustained by the claimant may also be disputed. Rejecting the claim and sending notice of rejection in accordance with the Government Claims Act will commence the time in which the claimant may file a lawsuit against the City based on the claim.
ACTIONS FOLLOWING APPROVAL
A rejection notice letter will be sent to the claimant informing her that the claim has been rejected.

EXECUTIVE SUMMARY
The current collection contract with Republic Services is set to expire in August 2025. Prior to this date, the City needs to issue a Request for Proposals (RFP) for single -family, multifamily, and commercial recycling and organics collection services and select a provider from the respondents. To give potential proposers adequate time to procure equipment , staff is recommending beginning the RFP process at this early stage with HF&H. Staff is recommending that City Council authorize the City Manager to execute a Consultant Services Agreement with HF&H Consultants, LLC. HF&H has provided consultant services for over 30 years and assisted City staff in 1997, 2005, and 2015 with procuring waste collection contracts.

The use of an experienced consultant with broad knowledge of the solid waste industry would positively augment the decision -making process and streamline the selection of a service provider. HF&H has shown in their proposal and past performance a complete and comprehensive understanding of the City’s needs and that they are well-qualified to do this work.
ACTIONS FOLLOWING APPROVAL

(ii) General Liability Insurance (including operations, products and completed operations coverages) in an amount not less than $2,000,000 per occurrence for bodily injury, personal injury and property damage.

(iv) Consultant grants to the City a waiver of any right to subrogation which any insurer of said Consultant may acquire against the City by virtue of the payment of any loss under such insurance.

(v) Any deductibles or self-insured retentions must be declared to and approved by the City of Clovis Risk Services. The City may require the Consultant to purchase coverage with a lower deductible or retention or provide proof of ability to pay losses and related investigations, claim administration, and defense expenses within the retention.

City's failure, at any time, to object to Consultant's failure to provide the specified insurance or written evidence thereof (either as to the type or amount of such insurance), shall not be deemed a waiver of City's right to insist upon such insurance later. d. Maintenance of Insurance. If Consultant fails to furnish and maintain the insurance required by this section, City may (but is not required to) purchase such insurance on behalf of Consultant, and the Consultant shall pay the cost thereof to City upon demand, and City shall furnish Consultant with any information needed to obtain such insurance. Moreover, at its discretion, City may pay for such insurance with funds otherwise due Consultant under this Agreement. e. Subcontractors. If the Consultant should subcontract all or any portion of the work to be performed in this Agreement, the Consultant shall cover the subcontractor, and/or require each subcontractor to adhere to all the requirements contained herein. Similarly, any cancellation, lapse, reduction or change of subcontractor’s insurance shall have the same impact as described above. f. Special Risks or Circumstances. The City reserves the right to modify these requirements, including limits, based on the nature of the risk, prior experience, insurer, coverage, or other special circumstances.
g. Indemnity and Defense. Except as otherwise expressly provided, the insurance requirements in this section shall not in any way limit, in either scope or amount, the indemnity and defense obligations separately owed by Consultant to City under this Agreement. 89 AGENDA ITEM NO. 12.

2. Draft Ordinance of the City Council of the City of Clovis adding Chapter
9.81 of Title 9 of the Clovis Municipal Code Creating a Historic Preservation Committee
CONFLICT OF INTEREST
Councilmembers should consider recusal if a campaign contribution exceeding $250 has been received from the project proponent (developer, applicant, agent, and/or participants) within the preceding 12 months (Government Code 84308).
RECOMMENDATION
For the City Council to consider an update on the Historic Preservation Committee (HPC) and provide policy direction going forward.
EXECUTIVE SUMMARY
The origin of the creation of a City of Clovis Historic Preservation Committee began with a May 16, 2022, letter from Sayre Miller, representing the Clovis -Big Dry Creek Historic Society requesting the City Council create a Historic Preservation Committee. The letter indicated that the Clovis-Big Dry Creek Historic Society created a committee approximately three years prior to advocate for the preservation of the Carnegie Library building in Old Town Clovis ( 325 Pollasky Ave, Clovis, CA 93612 ). The Carnegie Library is owned by the Clovis Chamber of Commerce and the City of Clovis has limited to no control over how that building is used. The issue was before council on three different occasions in 2022. On February 13, 2023, the Clovis City Council directed staff to seek the nominations from City Council for appointment to the Clovis Historic Preservation Committee.
96 AGENDA ITEM NO. 14.
Motion from February 13, 2023 – “Motion for each Councilmember to appoint 1-2 members who live, work, own property, or can articulate their Historic ties to Clovis to the ad hoc committee by the February 21, 2023, Council Meeting. Motion for approval by Councilmember Bessinger, seconded by Councilmember Mouanoutoua. Motion carried by unanimous vote.”
Appointed:
- Mayor Ashbeck - Sayre Miller / Adam Holt
- Mayor Pro Tem Mouanoutoua - John Wright / Tom Wright
- Councilmember Basgall - Desiree Haus / Rachael Orlando
- Councilmember Bessinger - Ron Silva / Greg Newman (Mr. Silva dropped out for personal reasons before the first meeting)
- Councilmember Pearce - Cora Shipley / Mark Wall
The Committee was charged with:
a. Identifying criteria they would use to assess historic resources in the City of Clovis.
b. Assessing historic resources in the City of Clovis – this would consist of surveying historic resources within the city limits of the City of Clovis. The historic survey would not designate a property as historic. Instead, the survey would identify properties that could be a historic resource.
c. Provide recommendations to the City Council on the preservation of those identified resources.
The Committee is now prepared to report back to City Council.
BACKGROUND
The origin of the creation of a Historic Preservation Committee began with a May 16, 2022, letter from Sayre Miller, representing the Clovis -Big Dry Creek Historic Society requesting the City Council create a Historic Preservation Committee.

The Carnegie Library is owned by the Clovis Chamber of Commerce and the City of Clovis has limited control over how that building is used.
On May 2, 2022, the City Council received an update on 325 Pollasky Avenue, Clovis Chamber of Commerce building. On May 16, 2022, the Clovis-Big Dry Creek Historic Society submit ted a letter to the City Manager requesting that the City form a Historic Preservation Commission.
From the May 2, 2022, meeting, it was the consensus of the Council to pursue the formation of a Historic Preservation Committee to assist the effort in updating and preserving the building.
97 AGENDA ITEM NO. 14.
On June 6, 2022, the City Council considered the request from Clovis -Big Dry Creek Historic Society for the Council to create a Historic Preservation Commission. From the June 6, 2022, meeting Council directed staff to es tablish the Advisory Board as described in the Clovis Municipal Code 9.120.020 - Historic Preservation Board. A City review board designated to promote the cultural, economic, educational, and general welfare of the City through the preservation and protec tion of buildings, sites, structures, areas, and districts of historic significance and interest.
On September 12, 2022, staff presented a two options for Council to consider: Option A - Establish a temporary committee that would assess historic resources in the City of Clovis and provide recommendations to City Council on the protection of those identified resources; or Option B - Consider Introduction – Ord. 22-___, an Ordinance of the City Council of the City of Clovis adding Ch apter 9.81 of Title 9 of the Clovis Municipal Code creating a Historic Preservation Board.
City Council chose Option A with the following motion: to establish an ad hoc committee that would assess historic resources in the City of Clovis and provide rec ommendations to the City Council on the protection of those identified resources. Over the past year staff has met with the HPC monthly and is now reporting back to council.
Committee approved the following recommendations to City Council:
a. Final criteria to be used to assess properties in Clovis with the goal of promoting and preserving historic resources:
i. Age (75 years plus).
ii. An event that made a significant contribution to the broad patterns of local, regional history, or the cultural heritage of Clovis.
iii. Is associated with the lives of persons important to local, California, or national history.
iv. Embodies the distinctive characteristics of a type, period, region or method of construction or represents the work of a master or possesses high artistic values. v. Is associated with information, items, artifacts or is important to the prehistory or history of the City of Clovis, California, or the nation. vi. Is the resource within the Central Clovis Specific Plan (CCSP) area.
b. Designate the original one (1) square mile of Clovis as a historic district to prevent unregulated and insensitive change (Barstow to the South, Minnewawa to the east, Sierra to the north, and Sunnyside to the east) See image below.
c. Direct staff to bring back before City Council for r econsideration the 2022 Draft Ordinance of the City Council of the City of Clovis adding Chapter 9.81 of Title 9 of the Clovis Municipal Code Creating a Historic Preservation Committee (Attachment 2).
d. As part of the General Plan Update, create a specific stand-alone element addressing historic resources with goals, policies, and actions.
98 AGENDA ITEM NO. 14.
One Square Mile - Source: Central Clovis Specific Plan
FISCAL IMPACT
Depending on the final recommendation of the council, there will likely be a cost incurred to implement. There is currently no money budgeted to support the implementation and enforcement of supporting a Historic Preservation Committee and associated actions necessary to identify and preserve historic resources as well as enforcing the ordinance s hould council approve.
99 AGENDA ITEM NO. 14.
REASON FOR RECOMMENDATION
City Council directed the creation of a Historic Preservation Committee to:
a. Identifying criteria they would use to assess historic resources in the City of Clovis.
b. Assessing historic resources in the Ci ty of Clovis – this would consist of surveying historic resources within the city limits of the City of Clovis. The historic survey would not designate a property as historic. Instead, the survey would identify properties that could be a historic resource.

the City form a Historical Preservation Commission. From the May 2, 2022, meeting, it was the consensus of the Council to pursue the formation of a historical preservation committee to assist the effort in updating and preserving the building.
On June 6, 2022, the City Council considered the request from Clovis-Big Dry Creek Historical Society for the Council to create a Historical Preservation Commission. From the June 6, 2022, meeting Council directed staff to establish the Advisory Board as described in the Clovis Municipal Code 9.120.020 - Historic Preservation Board.

City Council chose Option A with the following motion: to establish an ad hoc committee that would assess historic resources in the C ity of Clovis and provide recommendations to the City Council on the protection of those identified resources. Membership of the committee will consist of ten (10) members and each member shall be appointed by the City Council following a recommendation by the Mayor and members must be a resident of the City of Clovis.
In October 2022 City Council provided additional direction to table the creation of the Committee until after the November 8, 2022, election. Staff is now returning to City Council to confirm the actions taken on September 12, 2022.
On February 13, 2023, staff returned to council seeking direction on path forward.
FISCAL IMPACT
There is currently no funding to support the establishment of a Historic Preservation Committee.

A 4.10% across-the-board increase is recommended, based on the 5- year average change in the consumer price index (CPI). This methodology is consistent with the strategy used in conjunction with the 2022 and 2023 annual fee updates, following a comprehensive update in 2021. The 5 -year average was used because it accounts for the changes in costs that have occurred while softening the effects of single-year CPI changes that have occurred over the last few years. The revised fee schedule will provide the funding necessary for the Planning Division to maintain a functional level of service to the public. The revised rates will take effect beginning September 3, 2024, 60 days after approval.
PROPOSAL AND ANALYSIS
Plan Check, Inspection Services, Encroachment Permits, and Community Investment Program Rates
The Engineering Division last updated the hourly rates in 2023 by Resolution 23-34. The cost of employee benefits has been increasing and is expected to continue to rise for the foreseeable future. Staff is recommending an hourly rate of $1 50 to follow the overhead increases of 2023.
Hourly Billing Rate
In accordance with the Clovis Municipal Code, the Council establishes, by resolution, a schedule of fees for inspection, staking, and other services to be rendered by the City in connection with work performed by Engineering staff. The $14 5 per hour billing rate was last updated in May 2023 by Resolution 23-34. Going forward, staff will review the hourly rate and adjust according to the CPI as part of the annual, or biannual review of the Development Impact Fees.
Stakeholder Outreach
An email was provided to a group of over 130 stakeholders d escribing the proposed increase and all were offered the ability to meet in person or virtually. The stakeholders included the Building Industry Association (BIA), Fresno Metropolitan Flood Control District (FMFCD), the Clovis Unified School District, and several local residential and non -residential developers. 149
AGENDA ITEM NO. 18.
None of the contacted stakeholders have provided opposition to the hourly rate increase. The revised rate will take effect beginning September 3, 2024, 60 days following the approval of the resolution by Council.
Planning Division Fee Schedule
Based on the evaluation completed in May 2024, staff is recommending an update to the 2023 Planning Division Fee Schedule utilizing the Consumer Price Index (CPI) for All Urban Consumers. The CPI has been identified as the most applicable index for an adjustment to the Planning fees, which are based primarily on personnel costs. The recommended methodology utilizes the average of the last five (5) years of the CPI percentage changes to arrive at a total increase of 4.10%. While it is relatively common to use the single year change in CPI to make these routine annual adjustments, a five -year average is recommended for the 202 4 update.
The five-year average of the CPI percentage change has been consistently recommended by staff since the comprehensive fee analysis was completed in 2021. Generally speaking, recommending the five-year average helps avoid the “spiking effect” that may occur if only the most recent year’s CPI was utilized. The following entitlement types are excepted from th e recommended CPI increase:
Small Home Occupation Permits, Staff Research & Document Preparation, and the Redistribution Fee for applications during the commenting period are proposed to be increased from the current hourly rat e of $145 per hour to $150 per hour as proposed by the Engineering Division.
The “per acre, per building permit, per sign, per unit, and per lot” fees are also not being proposed to change.
The current fee for the “Conditional Use Permit, Extension” is proposed to be modified to add “Minor Amendments” to the description to better accommodate the type of applications that are routinely processed in the Planning Division. A workflow analysis indicates that this fee should be increased from $2,602 to $3,494.
The three environmental assessment fees (Categorical Exemption, Negative Declaration, and Mitigated Negative Declaration) now include the $50 County Clerk filing fee for each entitlement type.
A new fee has been added to the Planning fee schedu le, titled “Willow Corridor Annexation Fair Share Cost Recovery - Site Specific Development,” in the amount of $174 per acre. This fee will be applied to all developments within the Willow Corridor Annexation boundaries (north of Shepherd, between N. Willow and N. Peach Avenues), encompassing approximately 550 acres recently annexed to the City. The recommended fee will allow the City to recoup a portion of its expenses for processing the Willow Corridor Annexation by collecting the “per -acre” portion of th e fees from projects as they develop. These fees would otherwise have been paid by these projects in conjunction with prezoning and annexation applications.
150
AGENDA ITEM NO. 18.
The new rates within the Planning Division Fee schedule will take effect September 3, 2024, 60 days following the approval of the resolution by Council.
Stakeholder Outreach
An email was provided to a group of over 130 stakeholders describing the proposed changes to the 202 4 Planning Division Fee Schedule on June 13, 2024. The stakeholders were the same as the Plan Check, Inspection Services, Encroachment Permits, and Community Investment Program Rates , which included the Building Industry Association (BIA), Fresno Metropolitan Flood Control District (FMFCD), the Clovis Unified School District, and sev eral local residential and non -residential developers. No comments had been received as of the completion of this staff report.
California Environmental Quality Act (CEQA)
The proposed fee adjustments have been reviewed in compliance with the provisions of the California Environmental Quality Act (CEQA) and based upon the Public Resources Code Section 15061 (b)(3), there is no substantial evidence that the project will have a significant effect on the environment, therefore, is exempt from CEQA . A Notice of Exemption has been completed during the preliminary review and is kept for public review with the project file during the processing of the project application. Staff will file the notice with the County Clerk if the fee adjustments are approved.
FISCAL IMPACT
Engineering Department revenue increases will offset increased staff costs and allow City staff to maintain the current level of plan check and inspection services. The increase in the hourly rate will cover the increased costs of CIP staff and will not exceed the estimated amount required to provide the service for which the applicable fee is charged.
Planning Division revenue increases will offset increased staff costs and allow City staff to maintain the current level of service for entitleme nt applications. The fee increases will not exceed the estimated amount required to provide the service for which the applicable fee is charged.
REASON FOR RECOMMENDATION
Staff is recommending an increase in the hourly billing rate to $150 per hour to cover the cost of staff services provided on Plan Checks, Inspection Services, Encroachment Permits, and Community Investment Program projects.
Staff is recommending a revision to the Planning Division fee schedule to cover the cost of staff services provided on entitlement applications. The recommended adjustments are consistent with the discussion presented to stakeholders and the Council in 202 3, during which staff outlined its intent to proceed with routine or annual adjustments to the fees.

AGENDA ITEM NO. 18.
ACTIONS FOLLOWING APPROVAL
