CITY OF COALINGA
SEWER COLLECTION SYSTEM AND WASTEWATER TREATMENT PLANT
IMPROVEMENTS PROJECT
SWRCB PROJECT NO. C-06-8572-110
SCOPE OF WORK AND FEE
May 16, 2022
BACKGROUND
The City of Coalinga (City) is located in Pleasant Valley at the base of the coastal mountain range on the western side of California’s Central Valley within Fresno County. The City is a public agency that provides water and sewer service to residential, commercial, and industrial customers and for fire protection uses.
According to U.S. Census Bureau 2019 population estimates, the City serves a total approximately 17,179 people.
Coalinga is situated approximately 60 miles southwest from the City of Fresno, the Central Valley’s largest city and the state’s fifth largest city. Interstate 5 runs north to south approximately ten miles east of Coalinga. The County of Monterey lies to the west and Kings County sits to the east.
The City owns and operates a citywide sewer collection system and a wastewater treatment plant. The wastewater collection system currently services approximately 3,474 sewer connections. The City’s wastewater treatment plant (WWTP) is located at the confluence of Los Gatos Creek and Warthan Creek, approximately one mile east of the City. The treatment process at the City’s WWTP consists of screening, primary clarification, and secondary treatment (aerated facultative lagoons followed by stabilization lagoons). Undisinfected secondary treated effluent is pumped to adjacent land for percolation.
The overall condition of the sewer collection system is unknown. The older areas are believed to be in poor condition and in need of substantial repairs. The City’s maintenance staff regularly respond to problems with the collection system as back‐ups and overflows/spills and spends a great deal of their time locating and/or repairing the system in response to emergency calls from the City’s residents.
The City is considered a Disadvantaged Community (DAC). According to the August 2019 Income Survey Report prepared by Self-Help Enterprises, the City’s Median Household Income (MHI) is $ 47,570, which is less than 80 percent of the State’s MHI of $75,277. The current residential sewer rate consists of a fixed monthly service charge of $21.95 per month for residential and non-residential customers. Nonresidential and educational institution customers are also charged a volumetric charge of $4.86 based on the meter potable water volume per thousand gallons.
The City owns and operates a WWTP under the Waste Discharge Requirements (WDRs) Order No. 94-184.
The WWTP consists of a bar screen, a primary clarifier an aerobic sludge digester, sludge drying beds, two aerated facultative lagoons each with a surface area of three acres, and three stabilization ponds having a total surface area of 11 acres. The City owns approximately 470 acres on the southwest corner of Jayne Avenue and Alpine Avenue. Currently, treated effluent is pumped form one of the stabilization ponds to adjacent land, where percolates into the soil and is used to recharge the groundwater table. The existing WWTP has a capacity to dispose up to 1.34 MGD.
The City would like to conduct a CCTV inspection of manholes, and sewer pipes, and assess the condition of sewer pipes that are at risk of collapse or prone to more frequent blockages due to pipe defects. The City’s very limited resources make it very difficult to address the deficiencies in the sewer collection system.
The City has received funding to conduct a comprehensive sewer collection system that will assess the condition of the sewer collection system pipelines, correct existing deficiencies and prioritize the replacement of sewer lines based on their estimated remaining useful life. In addition, the City’s funding will provide an evaluation of the City’s WWTP and a feasibility analysis of recycled water alternatives.

Subject: Consideration of Bid Award for Total Trihalomethane (TTHM) Reduction Facilities at the Water Treatment Plant
Meeting Date: June 16, 2022
From: Marissa Trejo, City Manager
Prepared by: Sean Brewer, Assistant City Manager
I. RECOMMENDATION:
It is recommended that the Coalinga City Council:
Award a Contract in the amount of $1,328,600.00 to GSE Construction Company, Inc., 7633 Southfront Road, Suite 160, Livermore, CA 94551 for the TTHM Reduction Facilities at the WTP.
Authorize a contingency of 10% $132,860.00 to cover any unforeseen incidentals for an authorization amount of $1,461,460.00.
Approval of a construction management/engineering task order with the City Engineer for $199,290.00.
II. BACKGROUND:
On January 4, 2017, the Coalinga City Council directed staff to prepare engineering plans and specifications and authorized a call for bids for the TTHM Reduction Facilities at the WTP.
This project consists of implementing permanent pH adjustment and pre-oxidation injection facilities. Due to concerns regarding the health, safety, and difficulties associated with WTP staff handling muriatic acid, the City prefers that the full-scale pH adjustment facilities use liquid carbon dioxide.
Sodium permanganate willcontinue to be used for pre-oxidation of organic matter at the WTP influent. To minimize additionalcapitalcosts and difficulties of integrating new and existing facilities, the sodium permanganate storage and injection equipment will use severalexisting pieces of infrastructure that are not currently used by the WTP.
The project generally consists of furnishing labor and materials, furnish and install sodium permanganate and carbon dioxide storage and injection facilities as specified for, but not limited to:
Mobilization/Demobilization
Perform Subsurface Utility Locating (Potholing)
Furnish and Install Carbon Dioxide Equipment Foundations and Flatwork Furnish and Install Precast Concrete Vaults
Furnish and Install Sodium Permanganate Storage and Injection Equipment Furnish and Install Carbon Dioxide Storage and Injection Equipment Furnish and Install Piping and Appurtenances
Furnish and Install Site Improvements
Furnish and Install Electricaland Instrumentation
This also includes construction management for this project which will be provided by Tri City Engineering, and Contract Sub-Consultants, MKN Associates & Frisch Engineering.
Tri City Engineering, Inc. $ 44,120.00
MKN Associates, Inc. $ 63,780.00
Frisch Engineering, Inc. $ 91,390.00
Total CM $199,290.00
III. DISCUSSION:
City Staff received and opened four bids for this project on June 7, 2022, at 2:00 p.m. GSE Construction Company, Inc., was the apparent low bidder with a total bid proposal of $1,328,600.00. The Engineer’s Estimate was $1,150,000.00. The entire bid summary is included as Attachment “A”. GSE Construction Company, Inc., has furnished the required bid bond. If the City Council decides to award the project to GSE Construction Company, Inc., and the “Notice to Proceed” is issued, the contractor will have 340 working days to complete the work. The following is a tentative schedule:
Award of Contract: June 16, 2022
Start of Construction: July 11, 2022
Substantial Completion October 20, 2023
Completion of Construction: November 20, 2023
IV. ALTERNATIVES:
The alternative to this councilaction would be to reject all bids. If all bids are rejected, the City would have to re-advertise or cancel the project. Staff believes that re-advertising the project will not result in lower bids.
V. FISCAL IMPACT:
Authorization request for this contract is Contractor $1,461,460.00 and Construction Management $199,290.00, for a totalauthorization of $1,660,750.00. This project is funded by $1,200,000 in ARPA funds and the remaining to be funded through water bond proceeds.

Subject: Discussion, Direction and PotentialAction regarding Authorizing Annual Stipend of $15,000 Payable to Coalinga Area Chamber of Commerce for FY 22 and Adopt Resolution No. 4096 Authorizing FY 22 Stipend to Coalinga Area Chamber of Commerce
Meeting Date: Thursday, June 16, 2022
From: Marissa Trejo, City Manager
Prepared by: Marissa Trejo, City Manager
I. RECOMMENDATION:
City Manager recommends authorizing payment of $15,000 annual stipend to Coalinga Area Chamber of Commerce for FY 22
II. BACKGROUND:
On July 1, 2021, Council discussed a stipend of $15,000 payable to the Coalinga Area Chamber of Commerce for FiscalYear 2022.
The vote of the Council was to approve the stipend with the following conditions:
1. Contract with an independent auditor to perform an Assurance Audit to confirm the Coalinga Area Chamber of Commerce organization is free of fraud and misuse of funds prior to the stipend being paid out.
III. DISCUSSION:
The Coalinga Area Chamber of Commerce provided copies of its 2019, 2020 and 2021 tax returns to the City of Coalinga on May 19, 2022.
On June 6, 2022, the City of Coalinga received copies of the bank statements for the Coalinga Area Chamber of Commerce for the periods of January 2019 through December 2021.
The City has reached out to the City's Auditor regarding an Assurance Audit and has the following concerns:
1. There is not enough time to have the audit completed to pay the stipend for FY 22;
2. The audit would be costly;
3. The auditors may or may not be able to detect any sort of fraud.
The City Auditor recommended the City review the bank statements and tax returns to make its own determination.
City Manager Trejo has reviewed the tax returns and bank statements and did not detect any reasons to withhold the stipend for FY 22.
The tax returns and bank statements are also attached to this agenda item for Council review.
At this time, the Council needs to make a determination on whether or not the City will pay the $15,000 stipend to the Coalinga Area Chamber of Commerce for FY 22.
If so, the Resolution must be approved.
IV. ALTERNATIVES:
Do not authorize payment.
V. FISCAL IMPACT:
$15,000 from ARPA funds (previously allocated).

Subject: Discussion and Direction regarding the Development of a Food Truck Regulatory Ordinance
Meeting Date: June 16, 2022
From: Marissa Trejo, City Manager
Prepared by: Sean Brewer, Community Development Director I. RECOMMENDATION:
Staff is requesting direction from the City Council regarding the possibility of developing regulations for food trucks.
II. BACKGROUND:
The current policy in place allows food trucks to operate at the City parking lot located at 6 th Street and Elm
Avenue on particular dates and times. Food trucks are also allowed to operate on properties zoned commercial or industrial within the City where there is an existing business present. The food truck shall not take up more than 3 parking stalls. Planning Commission and City Council have reviewed food truck regulations in the past however the discussions led to the food truck policy currently in place. Resolution No. 3772-B set a sunset date for a permanent ordinance to be drafted to establish land use regulations for mobile vendors within the City of Coalinga.
III. DISCUSSION:
In an effort to solicit discussion, the Community Development Department has provided some information that has been discussed in the past with both the Planning Commission and City Council.
With the street vendor ordinance in place the new definitions for a mobile vendor and mobile vendor vehicle will read as follows:
Mobile vendor. Any person that sells, or causes or allows another, whether as an employee or as an independent contractor leasing or renting equipment, to sellany food, drinks or merchandise on any street, or alley, by means of automobile, truck or any other registered vehicle or vessel. This does not include vendors vending from a public sidewalk (See Sidewalk Vendors Section 9-5.130). Mobile vendors must obtain a business license from the City of Coalinga prior to the start of business operations. Mobile Vendor shall not mean any person operating under a concession agreement or other agreement with the city as a party to the agreement. A mobile vendor is different from a peddler, who visits private residences to sell goods, as defined and regulated in Title 5, Chapter 9 of the Coalinga Municipal Code.
Mobile vendor vehicle. An automobile, truck or any other registered vehicle or vessel used by mobile vendors to sell their food, drinks or merchandise. Mobile vendor vehicle shall not include delivery vehicles used to transport food or drink from a store having a valid food permit to a customer's home or a vehicle transporting food or drink from a wholesale establishment to a retail outlet.
NOTE: The term Food Truck could be worked within the definition of mobile vendor or create a separate section for Food Trucks (temporary food facility) since the current definition only addresses public rights of way and mobility of vehicles not stationary placement.
Attached is a copy of regulations that are applicable to mobile vendors and how they are implemented today.
In addition to the City’s existing regulation, staff has attached several different ordinances that have been adopted by different cities and counties regulating food trucks and mobile vendors.
Within the attached and linked ordinances, there are few things that may want to be considered during an ordinance development:
Approval Process and/or Permit Type if any (Administrative, Planning Commission Approval, Conditional Use Permit or Temporary Use Permit)
Location/Zones Permitted (industrial, commercial, residential zones, vacant lots, existing businesses, on the street, parking lots, ect.)
Time Limitations
Distance from existing brick and mortar restaurants and residences Utilities (self-sufficient, can then hook up?)
Parking Standards (surface type, length of time, vacant lots or existing business, ADA Accessibility) Shallalcohol be permitted?
Hours of Operation
Noise Standards (music, loud speakers, sound from vehicle while driving) Signage (on site signage, free standing and vehicle signage) Type of Vehicle (self-propelled)
Concentration of Vendors
Ability to use tables, chairs, and canopy’s
License and Insurance Requirements (County Health Department, State, Local, General Liability) Toilet and Handwashing Station Requirements (if stationary for more than 1 hour or provides open air BBQ)
Trash and Site Cleanliness
Maintenance of Vehicles

REQUEST
The Planning Division requests the Planning Commission review the attached Ordinance Text Amendments in regards to the regulation of temporary uses and forward a recommendation to the City Council.
File Name: Zoning Ordinance Amendment – Temporary Uses
File Number: File # OTA-16-01
SUMMARY RECOMMENDATION
Staff recommends approval of the following motions:
A. Recommend the City Council determine that the proposed project is exempt from CEQA under Section 15061(b)(3); and
B. Recommend that the City Council approve the Ordinance Text Amendments as shown in Exhibits A through D in regards to temporary uses based on the findings contained in the staff report.
Background
Temporary uses are activities such as farmer’s markets, food trucks/mobile food vending, produce stands, special events (Spooktacular, Safety Fair, Car Shows, etc.), and other similar activities. These uses are currently regulated through various sections of the Zoning Code including the Itinerant Vending Section (for uses that “sell” goods) and the Temporary Use Section for other short-term activities.
Over the past year, the number of inquiries regarding temporary uses has increased. One request in particular has been in regards to mobile food vendors and food truck “round-ups”. Mobile food vending, also referred to as “food trucks”, was ranked by Forbes Magazine as the number one small business in 2011. With the increase in popularity, operators are always interested in new locations to park a food truck. Areas lacking in restaurants and seeking to create synergy are prime areas for this type of user.
Unfortunately, the City’s current regulations including the restrictions on vending time limits have not supported the growth in this industry. Therefore, in September 2015, staff held a study session with the City Council to seek direction to update the City’s zoning regulations to be more in-line with today’s trends not only on food trucks but other short-term activities including special events, reoccurring community events, and construction staging areas. At this study session, the City Council supported the staff’s request to amend the regulations and directed staff to include the business community in any outreach. A copy of staff’s presentation at the Study Session is provided as Attachment 1.
Proposed Changes
The proposal revises various sections of the Zoning Code to amend the standards for certain activities and expand the uses that are allowed through the Temporary Use Permit process. There are several sections of the Zoning Code that currently regulate these types of temporary uses including Section 106.42.106 (Itinerant Vending) and the permitting processes regulated through two sections, 106.62.030 and 106.62.070. The proposal is to classify all short-term activities as a “temporary use”

and eliminate the independent section for itinerant vendors. In addition, other related sections of the Zoning Code will be updated including the definitions and the land use table. Combining all temporary uses into one section and updating the definitions will provide a more user-friendly Zoning Code.
Staff proposes a variety of changes in regards to the temporary use regulations. Exhibits A through D provide the complete list of the changes with the text shown in “red underlined” indicating new regulations and text shown in “purple underline” indicating modified regulations. The table below provides a recap and discussion of the most notable changes.
Topic Current
Regulations
Proposed Change Discussion
Special
Event/Sale
(Exemptions)
(106.42.250.B.10)
Currently certain
types of special
events are exempt
from a Temporary
Use Permit. The
criterion for
exemption includes
events held indoors
or will not occur after
9 pm and is not
attended by more
than 100 persons.
Special events that
are held within an
enclosed building
will remain exempt.
The criterion that
exempts events of
less than 100
persons and not
occurring after 9 pm
has been removed.
The proposal clarifies the
language and continues to exempt
special events or sales held
indoors. The proposal does
remove the exemptions in regards
to attendance and time. These
exemptions were rarely used and
requiring a permit for each event
allows staff the ability to review the
proposed site plan and proposed
activities based upon the individual
event.
Vending on
Demand
(106.42.250.B.12)
Currently itinerant
vendors require
issuance of an
Itinerant Vendor
Permit including
mobile food vendors
that travel routes
(ice cream trucks,
etc.)
Delete the code
section that is
specific to itinerant
vendors and
categorize under
Temporary Uses.
Create a new
category “Vending
on Demand” for
vendors that only
stop/park at the
request of a
customer and
exempt these types
of vendors from
obtaining a
Temporary Use
Permit
The current permitting process
requires that sellers that travel
routes and only stop at the request
of a customer (i.e. ice cream
trucks) obtain an Itinerant Vending
Permit. This permit structure has
been difficult to enforce due to the
influx of vendors during peak
times. Staff proposes to classify
these types of vendors as
“Vending on Demand” and exempt
them from a Temporary Use
Permit. Regulations that require
business license, including
background check of the vendor,
will remain a requirement through
the City’s Business License
process. Vendors that stop in a
location and vend from a
stationary spot would require a
Temporary Use Permit.

Proposed Change Discussion
Auto Sales
(Temporary Sale
Events)
106.42.250.C.1
New regulation Over time staff has received phone calls from various auto dealers interested in hosting short-term auto sales events within the City’s commercial shopping centers.
Currently, the regulations prohibit this type of temporary use. The proposed update would allow auto sales
(including RV’s, trailers, and other similar vehicles) within certain commercial zones (GC and SC) for a period of up to three consecutive days every three months not to
exceed 12 days per calendar year. The intent is that auto sales events could generate customer traffic without
diminishing sales from competing businesses since the
City has limited locations where autos are currently sold.
Construction
Staging Areas –
Off-Site
106.42.250.C.2
New regulation Off-site construction staging areas are temporary yards used by contractors for the storage of goods and
equipment for construction projects that are occurring at a location other than where the yard is located. The use of a storage area allows the contractor to store the goods in close proximity to the job site, preventing excessive trips to far away locations. This practice is most commonly
used for utility work (water, sewer, etc) and road work.
The Zoning Code currently has provisions for storage
areas “on-site” but silent in the regulation for “off-site” yards therefore the project includes the addition of
regulations for this use to the Temporary Uses section of the code.
The regulations will require contractors proposing to use off-site properties for the storage of goods and equipment to obtain a Temporary Use Permit. The issuance of the
permit will provide staff the opportunity to review the proposed location to ensure the activities at the site are compatible with the surroundings including operating
hours, dust control, and noise. Additionally, the
contractor will be required to notify surrounding properties within 500 feet of the site of the intended use. All
contractors/agencies would be subject to obtaining the
Temporary Use Permit (City, County, SMUD, PGE,
Sewer, etc.).
Reoccurring
Community
Events
106.42.250.C.9
New regulation This new category would include events such as a farmer’s market (currently one at Sunrise Mall), and
possible future events such as a food truck round-up
(multiple food trucks in one location). These events are typically held on a regular basis and generally include multiple vendors operating/functioning as one event. In the case of these types of events, only the “event” would require the permit, not each individual vendor.
Attachment 2 provides information on a recent proposal
for a type of reoccurring community event.

Regulations
Proposed Change Discussion
Special Events
106.42.250.C.12
(Allowed Uses by
Issuance of a
Temporary Use
Permit)
Current regulations
allow for a special
event for no more
than 10 days in a
calendar year.
Allow a special
event (carnivals,
safety fairs, etc.) to
occur up to 10
consecutive days
and remove the
yearly limit.
Special events bring activity to
commercial areas and utilize
outdoor space within the
commercial centers (such as
Sunrise Mall parking lot). These
events rarely last more than a
weekend but the code was unclear
if the 10 day per year limit was per
event or an allowance for all
events. Staff proposal will clarify
that a single event would be
limited to no more than 10
consecutive days and would
remove the yearly limit.
Vending
106.42.250.C.14
Currently classified
as Itinerant Vending
Rename and
combine under the
Temporary Uses
Section
Removing the Itinerant Vending
and reclassify this as a Temporary
Use will make the Zoning Code
more user friendly by having the
regulations all in one section.
• Daily Removal Currently the Zoning
Code requires that
all evidence of
vending must be
removed on a daily
basis.
Proposal to allow
discretion that for
the length of the
permit, vending may
remain in place
without daily
removal.
The City has received interest from
a vendor that would like to set-up
seasonally (See Attachment 3)
and the type of mobile unit does
not allow its removal on daily
basis. Staff has proposed
language that would allow
flexibility in the daily removal
requirement.
• Vending within
the Rights of
Way
Currently there is no
vending allowed
within the public
rights of way
Changed from
“prohibited” to
allowed with an
encroachment
permit issued by the
City
The intent is to not encourage
vending in the rights-of-way but
remove the prohibition and allow it
through an encroachment permit
in certain situations such as a
parade.
• Signage Currently only one
sign up to 10 sf is
allowed.
Remove the limit on
the number and size
of signs.
The size limit of 10 sf was
appropriate when regulating a
single-vendor but with groups of
vendors (food truck round-ups)
additional signage may be
needed. The proposal is to not
limit the number of or the size of
signage but all portable signs
would have to be removed at the
conclusion of each day.

adequate space is
available. If
tables/chairs are
provided, restrooms
for customer use
must also be
provided.
Tables/chairs would help
contribute to the atmosphere for
food truck round-ups or other
community events. These types of
events would be held in areas that
could accommodate the placement
of the furniture. For example, large
parking lots such as Grand Oaks
Shopping Center could
accommodate the use of
tables/chairs for a food truck
round-up.
• Toilet and
Handwashing
Currently restrooms
must be available for
use by the vendor
when the vendor is
stopped more than
four hours in a
single location
Vendors stopped for
more than one hour
in a single location
must have access to
a restroom.
Vendors in one
location for more
than four hours will
be required to
provide restrooms
for customer use.
Revised for consistency to CA
Retail Codes that require mobile
food vendors conducting business
for more than one hour in a
location provide employees
restroom facilities within 200 feet
(this will be required by both food
and non-food vendors). In
addition, any vendor utilizing
tables/chairs or remaining
stationary four hours or more, will
be required to require restrooms
for customer use.
• Daily Vending
Time Limits
Current regulations
have a one hour
time limit for food
vendors and no time
limit for vendors of
other goods
Remove the one
hour time limit for
food vendors and
limit hours on all
vendors on a caseby-case basis.
The time limit of one hour has
proven to be restrictive and has
not supported the growth of food
trucks or other mobile food
vendors. Staff is proposing to
eliminate the time limit and
address the selling hours on a
case by case basis depending on
the surrounding businesses,
proposed activity, and location.
• Vending Area
Limit
Vending activity
generally limited to
200 sq ft.
Remove the vending
area size limit and
review by site plan
on a case-by-case
basis.
The vending area limit of 200 sf
was appropriate when regulating a
single vendor but does not allow
adequate space for community
events where there may be
multiple vendors in one location
i.e. food truck round-ups.

Proposed Change Discussion
Fundraisers nonprofit

106.62.030.E
Temporary
fundraising sales by
non-profit
organizations are
exempt from the
Itinerant Vendors
Permit.
Reclassify
fundraising events
into one category
“Special Events”
and require a
permit. Non-profit
organizations would
require a permit but
no fee would be
charged.
Currently, most outdoor
fundraising activities obtain a
permit even though they are not
technically required. Typically the
property owner of where the
activity is proposed to take place
prefers the group to obtain a
permit. The City does not
currently charge non-profits for this
permit and the revised regulations
would continue to exempt the
group from the permit fee.
In conjunction with the combining of the land use regulation of temporary uses and itinerant vending, Chapter 106.62 (Permit Application Filing and Processing) requires updating to be consistent. It’s important to note that this proposal does not change the existing permit procedures; the application review process, or change any of the existing permit fees associated with obtaining a Temporary Use Permit.
Conclusion
The proposed updates to the Zoning Code will revise the regulations for temporary uses including expanding the time permitted for mobile vendors, allowing short term auto sales events, and adding standards for off-site storage areas. Staff believes the City’s regulations and processes should support and attract businesses. Based upon the analysis provided within this report, staff believes the following findings can be made.
• The proposed amendments to update and add regulations for temporary uses including food trucks, mobile vending, and off-site construction staging area is consistent with the General Plan including Policy 5.2 that discusses the review and amendment to the Zoning Code to help facilitate economic opportunities;
• The proposed amendments associated with temporary uses will not be detrimental to the public, interest, health, safety, convenience, or welfare of the City.
ENVIRONMENTAL DETERMINATION
This project is exempt from environmental review pursuant to CEQA Guidelines Section 15061(b)(3).
PUBLIC OUTREACH
The proposed changes were provided to the City’s neighborhood associations and business groups including Sunrise MarketPlace, Antelope Crossings, Auburn Boulevard Business Association, and the Chamber of Commerce. Representatives from some of these groups attended the Study Session and expressed support for the changes. In addition, information including a copy of the draft regulations has been available on the City’s website for several weeks.
A public hearing notice for the proposed project was published in a general circulating newspaper as required and staff has not received any comments at the time this report was written.
RECOMMENDATIONS
The Planning Division recommends that the Planning Commission:
File # OTA-16-01
May 25, 2016 Page 7
A. Recommend the City Council determine that the proposed project is exempt from CEQA under Section 15061(b)(3); and
B. Recommend that the City Council approve the Ordinance Text Amendments as shown in Exhibit A in regards to temporary uses based on the findings contained in the staff report.

AND REPLACE AS SHOWN BELOW
106.62.030 – TEMPORARY USE PERMIT (PLANNING PERMIT PROCEDURES) A. Purpose. This Section establishes procedures for the granting of Temporary Use Permits for short-term activities.
This use is a special privilege, not a matter of right; it is subject to a revocable permit in compliance with Section 106.64.090 (Permit Revocation and Modification).
B. Applicability. A Temporary Use Permit is required to authorize activities or events as described in Section 106.42.250.
C. Review Authority. Temporary Use Permits may be approved or disapproved by the Director, in compliance with this section.
D. Application filing and processing. An application for a Temporary Use Permit shall be filed and processed in compliance with Chapter 106.60 (Permit Application Filing and Processing). It is the responsibility of the applicant to provide evidence in support of the findings required. Only one Temporary Use Permit is required for special events; each individual participant is not required to obtain a Temporary Use Permit. All vendors participating in the event must obtain an individual City Business License.
E. Fee Exemptions. A recognized 501(c)(3) organization shall not be required to pay a fee for the Temporary Use Permit, provided that the organization requests no more than one permit per year.
F. Health Permit. The vending of food, produce, or other edible items requires a valid health or other permit issued by the appropriate agency.
G. Project review, notice and hearing. Each application shall be reviewed by the Director to ensure that the proposal complies with all applicable requirements of this Zoning Code.

In the event that a hearing is required, notice shall be provided and the hearing shall be conducted by the Director in compliance with Chapter 106.76 (Public Hearings).
H. Findings and decision. A Temporary Use Permit may be approved by the Director only after the Director first finds that the requested activity complies with applicable standards, and therefore, that the establishment, maintenance, or operation of the temporary activity would not be detrimental to the public health, safety, or welfare of persons residing or working in the neighborhood of the proposed activity. In the authorizing of a permit for vending, the Director may consider the location of nearby businesses, other high traffic generators, or proximity to other vendors to prevent the proliferation of vendors in an area thus negatively impacting traffic and pedestrian safety.
I. Post approval procedures. The procedures and requirements in Chapter 106.64 (Permit Implementation, Time Limits, and Extensions), and those related to appeals and revocation in Article 7 (Zoning Code Administration), shall apply following the decision on a Temporary Use Permit application.
J. Condition of the site following temporary activity. Each site occupied by a temporary activity shall be cleaned of debris, litter, or other evidence of the temporary activity on completion or removal of the activity, and shall thereafter be used in compliance with the provisions of this Zoning Code. A bond may be required before initiation of the activity to ensure cleanup after the activity is finished.
