STAFF REPORT - CITY COUNCIL/SUCCESSOR AGENCY/PUBLIC FINANCE
AUTHORITY
Subject: Continued Public Hearing for the Introduction and Waiving of the First Reading of Ordinance No. 853 - City Initiated Zoning Text Amendment (No. ZTA 22-01) Amending the Planning and Zoning Code Related to Accessory Dwelling Units (ADU's), Floodplain Regulations and Density Bonus
Meeting Date: Thursday, August 18, 2022
From: Marissa Trejo, City Manager
Prepared by: Sean Brewer, Assistant City Manager
I. RECOMMENDATION:
Introduce and Waive the First Reading of Ordinance No. 853 - Amending the Planning and Zoning Code Related to Accessory Dwelling Units, Floodplain Management and Density Bonus.
II. BACKGROUND:
The State legislature enacted accessory dwelling unit (ADU) legislation in 2017, 2018, and 2020 to reduce regulatory barriers and costs, streamline approval, and expand the potentialcapacity for ADUs in response to California's housing shortage. A summary of the State laws and changes are summarized and attached to this report. The State ADU laws preempt local ordinances and cities must implement these laws with limited exceptions. As a result, the City’s existing ordinance is unenforceable under State law and staff has been applying the State’s requirements to allADU applications.
On July 26, 2022 the Planning Commission conducted a public hearing and - adopted Resolution No. 022P005, recommendation to the City Council for Approval of a City Initiated Zoning Text Amendment (No.
ZTA 22-01).
On August 4, 2022 the City Councilcontinued the public hearing to make changes related to garage conversions and permitted locations for ADU's. Staff has highlights and made some minor changes to the ordinance based on the Councils direction.
III. DISCUSSION:
What are Accessory Dwelling Units and Junior Accessory Dwelling Units? An accessory dwelling unit (ADU) is a smaller, independent residential dwelling unit located on the same lot as a stand-alone single-family home or multi-family development. ADUs are also referred to as accessory apartments, secondary suites, and granny units/flats. ADUs can be converted portions of existing homes (i.e., internalADUs), additions to new or existing homes (i.e., attached ADUs), or new stand-alone structures or converted portions of existing stand-alone accessory structures (i.e., detached ADUs).
ADUs come in a variety of types as illustrated in the graphic below. Existing residences can accommodate ADUs through garage conversions, which is converting an existing garage into living space, attaching a new ADU to an existing home, or retrofitting an existing home by dividing the home either on a second floor, or a portion of an existing floor. Other examples include new detached units, an addition above an existing or new garage, as wellas converting existing detached accessory structures.
Internal, attached, and detached ADUs all have the potential to increase housing availability consistent facilitating better use of the existing housing stock. Along with ADUs, Junior ADUs are another type of dwelling unit that is required by State law. Junior ADUs allow for the repurposing of an existing space in a single-family residence by incorporating a small kitchen, such as a wet-bar, and an exterior entrance to allow its use as a connected, but private living space within a larger residence. There are a few primary distinctions between a Junior ADU and an ADU as follows:
Can only be located within an existing or proposed single family residence such as RMD Zoning Designation with alley access. - Council wishes to change to all residentialzoning districts.
JADU’s must be no greater than 500 square feet in size.
ADU’s must be no greater than 1,200 square feet in size Must have its own separate entrance.
The proposed ADU ordinance amendment would bring the City's ordinance into compliance with State law and includes the following revisions:
Allow for the development of a Junior ADU fully contained within the residence, in addition to, a detached ADU on residentially zoned lots with an existing or proposed single family residence.
Only permitted in residentialzoned properties with alley access. Council wishes to change to all residential districts.
Further reduce parking standards for ADUs and allow required parking in setback areas (e.g., in a driveway).
Reduce side and rear setbacks for ADUs from 5-feet to 4-feet.
Increase building to 16-feet to allow ADUs to be constructed.
No impact fees on ADUs of 750 square feet or less.
Any impact fee that is required for an ADU that is 750 square feet or larger in size will be charged proportionately in relation to the square footage of the primary dwelling unit.
An updated copy of Ordinance No. 853 is attached for the City Council's review and consideration.
General Plan/Zoning Consistency: The proposed zoning text amendment is consistent with the general plan policies and implementation measures including zoning consistency for residential uses. These changes further enhance the general plan and intent of the zoning code.
Public Notification: On July 11, 2022 public hearing notices were posted and emailed to local paper in accordance with localand state regulations.
Environmental Determination: This text amendment has been reviewed in accordance with CEQA and staff has determined that this ordinance change would not have a detrimentaleffect on the health, safety and welfare of the community and fall under Section 15061(b)(3) - General Rule Exemption.
IV. ALTERNATIVES:
None determined at this time.
V. FISCAL IMPACT:
The following standard findings must be made for each Zoning Ordinance amendment:
1. The proposed Zoning Ordinance amendment would not be detrimental to the public interest, health, safety, convenience, or welfare of the City.
2. The proposed Zoning Ordinance amendment is consistent and compatible with the goals, policies, and actions of the General Plan, and the other applicable provisions of the Zoning Ordinance.
3. If applicable, the site is physically suitable (including, but not limited to access, provision of utilities, compatibility with adjoining land uses, and absence of physicalconstraints) for the requested zoning designations and anticipated land uses/developments.
4. The proposed Zoning Ordinance amendment has been processed in accordance with the applicable provisions of the California Government Code and the California Environmental Quality Act.

Such certification and verification shall be provided to the Floodplain Administrator.
b. Nonresidential construction, whether new construction or substantial improvement, shall either be elevated to conform with Section 9-8.501(a)(3)a. of this article or, together with attendant utility and sanitary facilities;
1. Be flood proofed below the elevation recommended under Section 9-8.501(a)(3)a. of this article so that the structure is watertight with walls substantially impermeable to the passage of water;
2. Have structural components capable of resisting hydrostatic and hydrodynamic loads and effects buoyancy; and
3. Be certified by a registered professional engineer or architect that the standards of Section 9-8.501(a)(3)b. of this article are satisfied. Such certification shall be provided to the Floodplain Administrator.
c. All new construction and substantial improvement with fully enclosed areas below the lowest floor (excluding basements) that are usable solely for parking of vehicles, building access or storage, and which are subject to flooding, shall be designed to automatically equalize hydrostatic flood forces on exterior walls by allowing for the entry and exit of floodwater. Designs for meeting this requirement must exceed the following minimum criteria:
1. Have a minimum of two (2) openings having a total net area of not less than one square inch for every square foot of enclosed area subject to flooding. The bottom of all openings shall be no higher than one foot above grade.

Sec. 9-6.1303. - Accessory Dwelling Units allowed incentives or concessions A. Applicant request and City approval.
1. An applicant for a density bonus in compliance with this chapter may submit to the City a proposal for the specific incentives or concessions that the applicant requests in compliance with this section, and may request a meeting with the City Manager or designee. The applicant may file a request either before filing a final application for City approval of a proposed project or concurrently with a final application for project approval. A preliminary application submitted shall include any incentives, concessions, waivers, or parking reductions requested pursuant to this section.
2. The City Manager or designee shall grant an incentive or concession request that complies with this section unless the City Manager or designee makes either of the following findings in writing, based upon substantial evidence:
a. The incentive or concession is not required to provide for affordable housing costs or for rents for the targeted units to be set (Unit cost requirements); or b. The incentive or concession would have a specific adverse impact upon public health and safety or the physical environment, or on any real property listed in the California Register of Historical Resources and for which there is no feasible method to satisfactorily mitigate or avoid the specific adverse impact without rendering the development unaffordable to low- and moderate-income households.
B. Waiver of standards preventing the use of bonuses, incentives, or concessions. An applicant may submit to the City a proposal for the waiver or reduction of development and zoning standards that would otherwise inhibit the utilization of a density bonus on a specific site, including minimum parcel size, side setbacks, and placement of public works improvements. The applicant shall show that a waiver or modification of development standards is necessary to make the housing units economically feasible.
C. Number of incentives. The applicant shall receive the following number of incentives or concessions:
1. One incentive or concession.

STAFF REPORT - CITY COUNCIL/SUCCESSOR AGENCY/PUBLIC FINANCE
AUTHORITY
Subject: Adopt Resolution No. 4111 Postponing the Increase of the Refuse Rate from July 1, 2022 to September 1, 2022
Meeting Date: Thursday, August 18, 2022
From: Marissa Trejo, City Manager
Prepared by: Jasmin Bains, Financial Services Director
I. RECOMMENDATION:
Financial Services Director recommends the City Council adopt Resolution No. 4111 postponing the Increase of the Refuse Rate from July 1, 2022 to September 1, 2022.
II. BACKGROUND:
City council approved Resolution No. 4063, on February 17, 2022. This resolution approved a new Municipal Solid Waste Franchise Agreement with Mid Valley Disposal LLC, and increased allcustomer rates ten percent. The stated date for the rate increase was July 1, 2022.
III. DISCUSSION:
After approval of Resolution No. 4063, the City Attorney recommended following the Proposition 218 procedure for the refuse rate increase. Doing so required sending rate increase notices to all customers providing them the opportunity to protest, specifying a rate hearing date, and waiting 45 days before the hearing. Notices were issued at the end of June such that the rate hearing could be in later August, after the 45 days. As a result, providing there is no majority protest at the hearing, the rates may become effective September 1, 2022. This is two months later than identified in the original resolution, therefore the change needs to be approved by city council.
IV. ALTERNATIVES:
As staff has been aware of the need to comply with the Proposition 218 process, the higher rates have not been implemented. The alternative of not approving this proposed resolution would leave a gap in rates for July and August.
V. FISCAL IMPACT:
The amount of increase refuse rates not collected during July and August is approximately $15,000 each month.

CITY OF COALINGA
NOTICE OF PUBLIC HEARING FOR PROPOSED INCREASED REFUSE RATES PLEASE TAKE NOTICE THAT the Coalinga City Council will hold a public hearing to consider proposed modification and increases to refuse charges for services furnished by the City, and to hear and consider objections and protests to the proposed refuse rate modifications described below. This notice is to comply with California’s Proposition 218 (California Constitution Article XIIID, Section 6).
HEARING DATE: Thursday, August 18, 2022, at or after 6:00 p.m.
HEARING LOCATION: City of Coalinga City Council Chambers, 155 West Durian, Coalinga, CA, 93210.
AMOUNT OF PROPOSED RATE MODIFICATIONS FOR YOU: The amounts of refuse rates (existing and proposed) are included with this notice. For a typical residential customer with three-cart service, the initial monthly cost will increase from $30.30 to $33.33, then increase by the Consumer Price Index (CPI) from the Mid Valley agreement over the next five years. The specific CPI is stated at the bottom of the Exhibit “A”. Customers will be notified of the exact increase each year at least 30 days prior to the CPI adjustment.
REASON FOR THE PROPOSED MODIFICATION OF REFUSE RATES: The proposed modification of Coalinga’s refuse rates is to 1) Compensate Mid Valley Disposal for additional services provided to comply with the requirements of Senate Bill 1383 mandating the reduction of greenhouse gas emissions, and 2) Comply with the agreement with Mid Valley Disposal to increase rates annually according to the CPI postings. The revenue from the modified rates and charges is not more than the funds required for the City to provide adequate refuse service to you and other City customers.
PROCEDURE FOR HEARING AND DETERMINING MAJORITY PROTEST: At the time stated above, the Council will hear and consider all objections and protests, if any, to the proposed refuse rate modifications. The Council may continue the hearing from time to time. Prior to the close of the hearing, if written protests against the proposed modified refuse rates are presented and not withdrawn by a majority of the record owners of the parcels that would be subject to the modified refuse rates, the City may not impose the modified refuse rates; instead, refuse rates would continue at their existing, previously-approved amounts. If, at the close of the protest hearing, there is no majority protest as described above, the Council may approve the refuse rate modifications, as proposed or as changed by the Council, to be effective commencing September 1, 2022.
PRESERVING THE RIGHT TO CHALLENGE: Any person who wants to preserve the opportunity to file a lawsuit challenging the proposed refuse rate modifications, if imposed, or other matters described in the Report must file a written protest with the Council, stating the specific grounds of the protest. Any grounds not stated in a written protest filed with the Council before the close of the protest hearing on August 18, 2022, will be deemed waived and may not be raised in any subsequent lawsuit.
HOW TO PROTEST THE PROPOSED RATE INCREASES: All owners and tenants of property receiving refuse service and other interested persons are invited to attend the Public Hearing noticed above. Written protests must be received (not postmarked) by the City Clerk before or during the public hearing. Council will not count written protests submitted after the conclusion of the public hearing. Any protest submitted by e-mail or other electronic means will not be accepted. The protest must be signed by the property owner(s) or tenant(s) and must include the assessor’s parcel number(s) or street address(es) of all property(ies) serviced, and your statement that you protest the increase in the refuse rates. Only one written protest per identified parcel or property will be counted for purposes of determining whether there is a majority protest.
ADDITIONAL INFORMATION: For additional information and answers to questions about the proposed refuse rate proceeding, contact Jasmin Bains, Finance Director, (559) 935-1533 x129, or [email protected].

FECHA DE AUDIENCIA: jueves 18 de agosto, 2022 a las 6:00 p.m.
SITIO DE AUDIENCIA: Ciudad de Coalinga, Cámaras del Consejo, 155 W. Durian Ave, Coalinga, CA 93210 CANTIDAD DE AUMENTO DE TARIFA PROPUESTA: La tarifa de desperdicios (existente y propuesto) se encuentran en la siguiente página. Para un hogar residencial con servicio de tres botes de desperdicio, el cobro inicial aumentara de $30.30 a $33.33, luego aumentara por el Índice de Precios al Consumidor (IPC) por medio del acuerdo con Mid Valley Disposal en los próximos cinco años. El IPC especifico se establece hacia la parte de abajo de la exposición “A”. Los clientes serán notificados del aumento cada año a lo mínimo 30 días antes del ajuste del IPC.
MOTIVO DE LA PROPUESTA DE MODIFICACIÓN A LAS TARIFAS DE DESPERDICIOS: La propuesta modificación de las tarifas de desperdicios y basura es para 1) Compensar a Mid Valley Disposal por los servicios adicionales proporcionados para cumplir con los requisitos del Proyecto de Ley del Senado 1383 que exige la reducción de las emisiones de gases de efecto invernadero 2) Cumplir con el acuerdo con Mid Valley Disposal de aumentar las tarifas anualmente de acuerdo con la publicación de IPC.

PROCEDIMIENTO PARA ESCUCHAR Y DETERMINAR LA PROTESTA DE LA MAYORÍA: En la hora indicada anteriormente, el Consejo de la ciudad escuchará y considerará todas las objeciones y protestas, si las hubiera, a las modificaciones propuestas de las tarifas de desperdicios y basura. El Consejo puede continuar la audiencia de vez en cuando. Antes del cierre de la audiencia, si se presentan protestas por escrito y no se retiran por la mayoría de los propietarios de los registros de las parcelas que estarían sujetas a las tarifas de desperdicios y basura modificada, la Ciudad no puede imponer las tarifas de basura modificadas; en cambio, las tarifas de desperdicios y basura continuarían en sus montos existentes previamente aprobados.

Cualquier motivo no mencionado en una protesta por escrito presentada ante el consejo antes del cierre de la audiencia el 18 de agosto 2022, se considerará renunciado y no podrá ser presentado en ninguna demanda posterior.
COMO PROTESTAR LA PROPUESTA DE AUMENTO DE TARIFA: Todos los propietarios e inquilinos de la propiedad que reciben servicios de basura y otra persona interesada están invitados a asistir a la audiencia publica notada anteriormente. Las protestas escritas deben ser recibidas (sin matasellos) por la secretaria de la Ciudad antes o durante la audiencia pública. El consejo no contara las protestas escritas presentadas después de la conclusión de la audiencia pública. Cualquier propuesta presentada por correo o cualquier medio electrónico no será aceptada.

6. ORDINANCE PRESENTATION, DISCUSSION AND POTENTIAL ACTION ITEMS
1. Discussion of Semi-Truck Parking within City Limits
Marissa Trejo, City Manager
City Manager Marissa Trejo gave a brief overview of the item.
Councilman Horn, addressing Mr. Robert Burnett, asked if some drivers were still being allowed to park at Terry Johnson’s Trucking, Inc.?
Mr. Robert Burnett - ?
Councilman Ramirez asked of the possibility of CHRPD allowing drivers to park in the undeveloped section of the Sports Complex, suggesting that the drivers use the backway off Monterey instead od Cambridge Avenue.
Mayor Pro-Tem Singleton expressed his concern to find a suitable resolution, stating that drivers cannot continue to park at someone else’s business. He had hoped that someone from the public, that has land, might come forward. It is not the City’s responsibility to locate a spot, however we are trying to assist the drivers. We don’t want them to be displaced.
Mrs. Mary Jones urged the Council to provide a list of properties that had been considered and include a reason why they were each found to be unsuitable.
Councilman Ramirez stated he had previously reached out to Granite Construction Company regarding the possible use of the old airport property. They seemed to be ok with the idea, until potential environmental issues were brought up.
Mr. Burnett agrees that drivers should not continue to park at the old K-Mart property. He listed the following potential sites:
• Terry Johnson – open land near the garlic plant out at the Industrial Park • Johnny Benson’s property off Alcalde
• Sports Complex (CHRPD) – accessing the property by way of Gale to Monetary to avoid schools on Cambridge
• vacant property next to the bridge just north of the Cambridge Inn Hotel located on the east side of Phelps Avenue
Mr. Burnett suggested have the drivers sign a contract and provide a certificate of liability.
Councilman Ramirez suggested the Caballo Club property as possible location.
Mr. Burnett stated that the going rate for semi-truck parking is $100 and drivers are willing pay.
SPECIAL Minutes – August 4, 2022
Councilman Horn suggested the City-owned property that is being leased to Lovelace Farms across from CalFire (old drive-in) as a possible location.
Mr. Burnett stated that patrol would need to be increased if located in that area. With the current prices of fuel, gasoline theft is a big problem.
Mr. Nathan Vosburg stated his belief that all business should have the opportunity to exist. He understands that truck drivers also pay taxes for road maintenance, but it costs $500,000 to 1M to replace a ½ mile of road.
Agreeing that the old K-Mart parking lot looks terrible, the truck drivers cannot take all the blame for the condition for the lot as the circus punched holes in the ground when they erected their tents.
Mr. Vosburg suggested the property off of Merced Street, across from the PG&E plant as a possible suitable location. He believes the road has a higher impact rating than other roads around town. He does not believe the Industrial Park is suitable, stating there is not enough room for all the trucks and the road are already getting bad. Mr. Vosburg suggested an area out at the new airport could be developed with warehouses and include truck parking.
Mr. Burnett stated the airport property would also need to be patrolled if parking was located there. Airports are a usual place for the location of truck parking, it only requires gravel, fencing and lighting. Mr. Burnett agrees with Mrs. Mary Jones that a list of properties that have been considered would be helpful.
Councilman Horn questioned whether the airport could be used since it is surrounded by Habitat Land.
City Manager Marissa Trejo stated that the airport land was purchased and developed with grant funds and the City is prohibited from using the property for anything other than aeronautical activity. Therefore, the City no longer able to allow Shift S3ctor events on the property.
Mayor Ramsey stated that the Council didn’t want to tell the drivers that they cannot park within the City-limits without assisting with locating an alternative place.
City Manager Marissa Trejo stated she had previously reached out to the Cities of Hanford, Lemoore, and Avenal to see how they were handling truck parking. The City of Hanford allows commercial trucks to park in their industrial zones; however, they have begun parking in other parts of the City and they are receiving complaints from nearby businesses. The City of Lemoore does not have enough space in their industrial park to accommodate and drivers are starting to park in other areas of town where they are not permitted. The City of Avenal purchased property and paved it for truck drivers to park. They charge a permit fee of $100 per month, however the funds collected will not cover the costs to repair the ware and tear. They do not recommend this approach.
Councilman Ramirez suggested that if CHRPD or the Caballo Club were willing to unitize their property, perhaps the City could pay for part of the expense.
City Manager Marissa Trejo stated that CHRPD could be a viable option but is concerned that the property was expected to be developed under a grant which may pose an issue. Therefore, the Caballo Club may be a good option.
Mayor Ramsey suggested we also look into Highway 198 and Alcalde property and Terry Johnson Trucking that had been suggested.
SPECIAL Minutes – August 4, 2022
Consensus of the Council for Staff to consider all the suggestions and bring the item back for further discussion.

I don’t stand alone when I say most often I find councils decisions to be very inconsiderate.
I’m certain your minds are made up in regard to truck parking. You will sure show them when you hammer down on them so hard that it makes their jobs nearly impossible or drive them out of business.
This matter has gone unresolved for years.
I remember when Councilwoman Stoltz was in office she worked much harder. This issue was not a exception as she devoted her own personal time and talked someone into allowing the trucks to park on their business property. Unfortunately the city placed a great deal of unreasonable conditions upon him so he backed out. As you all know the city of Coalinga has a reputation for those type of things. That is why many businesses leave Coalinga and far more do not even come at all.
The truck driving goes far beyond the matter of where to park. It’s the “principal”which some of you are too arrogant to consider or just too ignorant to understand. It sickens me when I hear council begin by making their self-serving disclaimer saying how much they understand and respect them then to go on to disrespect and show no consideration.
I would like to see council members get off of their pompous ass and follow Councilwoman Stolz footsteps and find a reasonable parking alternative.
Especially you fellas who are seeking reelection.
Regards, Greg Cody

Subject: Waive Second Reading and Adopt Ordinance No. 854 - City Initiated Zoning Text Amendment (No. ZTA 19-04) Amending the Planning and Zoning Code Related to In-Home Family Daycare Facilities
Meeting Date: Thursday, August 18, 2022
From: Marissa Trejo, City Manager
Prepared by: Sean Brewer, Assistant City Manager
I. RECOMMENDATION:
Waive the Second Reading and Adopt of Ordinance No. 854 approval of a City Initiated Zoning Text Amendment (No. ZTA 19-04) Amending the Planning and Zoning Code Related to In-Home Family Day Care Facilities to align with state law.
II. BACKGROUND:
Under existing law, the California Child Day Care Facilities Act, the State Department of Social Services licenses and regulates family daycare homes. Under existing law, a small family daycare home, which may provide care for up to 8 children, is considered a residential use of property for purposes of all local ordinances. Previous law authorized a city or county to either classify a large family daycare home, which may provide care for up to 14 children, as residential use of the property or to provide a process for applying for a permit to use the property as a large family daycare home. The City of Coalinga currently requires a conditional use permit for a large in-home family day care facility. With the passage of Senate Bill 234, this changed the requirement and now treats large family daycare home as a residential use of property for purposes of all local ordinances.
Due to this change staff has amended the City's existing regulations to reflect state law.
On July 26, 2022 the Planning Commission conducted a public hearing and adopted Resolution No. 022P004, recommending to the City Counciladoption of said ordinance.
On August 4, 2022 the City Council introduced and waived the first reading of said ordinance at a noticed public hearing.
III. DISCUSSION:
The proposed text amendment amends the permitting requirement for large family daycare facilities from a conditional use permit to being permitted by right.
A copy of the ordinance is attached for the Council's review and consideration..
General Plan/Zoning Consistency: The proposed zoning text amendment is consistent with the general plan policies and implementation measures including zoning consistency for residential uses. These ordinance revisions ensure consistency with state law.
Public Notification: On July 11, 2022 public hearing notices were posted and emailed to local paper in accordance with localand state regulations.
Environmental Determination: This text amendment has been reviewed in accordance with CEQA and staff has determined that this ordinance change would not have a detrimentaleffect on the health, safety and welfare of the community and fall under Section 15061(b)(3) - General Rule Exemption.
IV. ALTERNATIVES:
None determined at this time.
V. FISCAL IMPACT:
The following standard findings must be made for each Zoning Ordinance amendment:
1. The proposed Zoning Ordinance amendment would not be detrimental to the public interest, health, safety, convenience, or welfare of the City.
2. The proposed Zoning Ordinance amendment is consistent and compatible with the goals, policies, and actions of the General Plan, and the other applicable provisions of the Zoning Ordinance.
3. If applicable, the site is physically suitable (including, but not limited to access, provision of utilities, compatibility with adjoining land uses, and absence of physicalconstraints) for the requested zoning designations and anticipated land uses/developments.
4. The proposed Zoning Ordinance amendment has been processed in accordance with the applicable provisions of the California Government Code and the California Environmental Quality Act.

STAFF REPORT - CITY COUNCIL/SUCCESSOR AGENCY/PUBLIC FINANCE
AUTHORITY
Subject: Adopt Resolution No. 4113 Increasing Natural Gas Rates by 50 percent effective September 1, 2022 for one year ending September 1, 2023 Meeting Date: Thursday, August 18, 2022
From: Marissa Trejo, City Manager
Prepared by: Jasmin Bains, Financial Services Director
I. RECOMMENDATION:
Financial Services Director recommends City Counciladopt Resolution No. 4113 increasing natural gas rates by 50 percent effective September 1, 2022 for one year. This increase will be for one year only, allowing gas rates to return to their present level September 1, 2023, unless staff and City Council takes further action prior to that date. The Resolution further requires staff to present a long-term gas purchase plan to City Council by April 1, 2023.
II. BACKGROUND:
For ten years into 2021 wholesale gas costs remained low; however, gas costs have continued to escalate dramatically. System operating costs have continued moderate and little capital work has been performed.
The result has been a long period of very low gas rates. On December 1, 2021, rates were increased 45 percent to cover increasing costs, mainly for wholesale gas purchases. The increase last year was also to protect an adequate fund balance for the natural gas enterprise.
III. DISCUSSION:
After the rate increase December 1, 2021, wholesale gas costs increased more than projected and PG&E imposed a pass-through surcharge on the City for the greenhouse gas cap-and-trade program, administered by the California Air Resources Board. Further, wholesale gas costs for this coming winter are projected to be higher than last winter because of uncertainty caused by war in Ukraine, hot summer temperatures in the US, lack of hydro-electric power, and environmental pressure on fossil fuels. Consequently, another increase is needed, especially for this winter. Fortunately, the gas futures market shows prices decreasing after this winter. The strategy for this proposed increase is to make it for 12 months only, then allow rates to come back to the present level. This will require action by staff and City Council in September 2023 to reset rates based on actual conditions at that time. The Resolution further requires a long-term gas purchase plan to avoid extreme gas cost swings in the future. A natural gas study, dated July 26, 2022, has been prepared by Dan Bergmann of IGService and is attached to this staff report.
IV. ALTERNATIVES:
Not approve Resolution No. 4113 Increasing Natural Gas by 50%.
V. FISCAL IMPACT:
The recommended 50 percent increase will maintain the gas fund enterprise cash balance at roughly $1.0 million through this winter, based on current projected wholesale gas prices. The amount of increased revenue through August 2023 will be approximately $1.4 million. The increase in cost to a typical residential customer will be an average of $19 per month compared to the past 12 months.

RESOLUTION NO. 4113
A RESOLUTION OF THE CITY COUNCIL OF THE CITY OF COALINGA INCREASING NATURAL GAS RATES TO SUPPORT THE CITY’S NATURAL GAS ENTERPRISE FUND WHEREAS, over the past few years the gas enterprise fund balance has been decreasing and over the past year wholesale natural gas costs have risen substantially; and WHEREAS, Resolution No. 4048, approved November 4, 2021, increased natural gas rates forty-five percent to cover operating costs fully, and to cover increasing wholesale gas costs; and
WHEREAS, wholesale natural gas costs have continued to increase through 2022 and PG&E has begun passing through to the City greenhouse gas cap-and-trade surcharges from the California Air Resources; and
WHEREAS, an updated rate study has been completed by IGService, dated July 26, 2022, recommending a rate increase of fifty percent effective September 1, 2022, for one year only; and WHEREAS, the recommended rate increase will provide additional revenue to cover anticipated wholesale gas costs this coming winter; and WHEREAS, continued volatility in the wholesale gas market requires a long-term gas purchase plan; and
WHEREAS, the City of Coalinga’s gas system is operated safely, reliably, and provides relatively low-cost natural gas to Coalinga’s residents; and WHEREAS, City Council may set natural gas rate by resolution pursuant to Section 6-5.28 of the City’s Municipal Code; and
WHEREAS, rate increases for natural gas are exempt from the requirements of Proposition 218.
NOW, THEREFORE, BE IT RESOLVED by the City Council of the City of Coalinga as follows:

2 I. Overview: Purpose, Approach, and Proposed Rate Increase The purpose of this rate study is to evaluate the natural gas enterprise fund to assess expenses, especially wholesale natural gas costs, and to reset rates such that revenue is adequate for operations over the next year in preparation for extremely high wholesale gas costs this winter.
Audited financials have been reviewed to observe the history of revenues, expenses, and changing fund balances. Additionally, accounting reports have been examined to bridge the gap between the end of the last audit and the current fiscal year. Operating expense projections have been developed for the next three years through FY24/25. Revenues are adjusted upward to cover rising operating costs for the next 12 months, primarily the increased cost of wholesale natural gas.
This report proposes a 50 percent increase in gas rate effective September 1, 2022. This increase follows the 45 percent increase last December. The upcoming increases are due to the rising PG&E transportation costs and the dramatic escalation in wholesale natural gas costs.
Procedurally, increases in natural gas rates are exempt from the noticing requirements of Proposition 218. This means letters are not required by law to be sent to customers, there is no 45-day waiting period, and no formal protest process. However, in the event a rate increase is approved by City Council, customers should be notified, at a minimum, with a note on their monthly billing statements.
II. Background
Natural gas rates in Coalinga were constant for the past 10 years until they were increased effective last December 1, 2021 (Resolution No. 48, November 4, 2021). However, following the increase last December, wholesale gas costs have continued to increase, and are projected to be even higher this coming winter, up to $10.00 per DTh. Coalinga is a wholesale gas customer on the PG&E gas system. PG&E provides gas transportation for the city, but not gas supply. PG&E has recently imposed an additional pass-through surcharge cost on Coalinga to cover costs for the California Air Resources Board Greenhouse Gas Cap-and-Trade program.
The present surcharge is $1.02 per DTh, which is roughly 10 percent of the proposed total Coalinga rate. The Cap-and-Trade surcharge is not negotiable. (Details of PG&E charges are shown in Attachment A.) Beyond transportation, the city purchases all gas supply through Shell Trading on the wholesale market. This gives the city the option to structure its purchases, which will be proposed to City Council following this period of very high prices. As market prices were low into last summer with little volatility for so long, all gas has been purchased at monthly and daily market prices, taking full advantage of ongoing low rates. 3 III. Wholesale Gas Status
During Covid, wholesale natural gas prices reached historical lows due to very low demand. As a result, producers curtailed production and reduced drilling. Then, in February 2021, “The Great Texas Freeze” hit, creating a huge demand for natural gas and revealing the extent of elasticity in the gas market, which resulted in gas prices skyrocketing, mainly outside California.
Further, in August 2021, an El Paso Natural Gas pipeline explosion occurred near Coolidge, Arizona, removing a 30-inch transmission line from service for months to come. These were the events that caused the rates to increase last December.
Since then, Russia invaded Ukraine driving up world-wide energy prices, beyond the horrific ramifications of the invasion itself. Some natural gas produced in the United States is converted to liquid natural gas and exported overseas. Accordingly, that gas can be valued based on the world market. Further, hot summer temperatures in the US are putting pressure on available gas supply, preventing enough gas from being injected into storage for this winter. As of July 15th, storage reserves are 10 percent below a year ago at this time, and 12 percent below the five-year average. Further, environmental pressures continue to grow against coal and natural gas too. Finally, drought conditions in the West reduce the availability of hydro power. These factors combined are pushing natural gas prices to record highs.
The graph below shows actual historical monthly market prices through July 2022, followed by indicative prices provided by Shell Trading through June 2024. The graph illustrates the peak prices this winter followed by lower prices for Winter 2023/2024. 4 IV. Natural Gas Revenue, Expense, and Fund Balance
The bar chart below illustrates cost trending for the gas enterprise. The bottom section includes all fixed costs for operations such as labor, parts, and equipment. The middle section shows PG&E transportation charges that are now boosted upward by the Greenhouse Gas Cap-andTrade pass-through charge. The top section shows the cost for wholesale natural gas. As illustrated, wholesale gas costs during FY23 are projected to be 2.7 times higher than two years ago in FY21. This is a dramatic escalation in costs.
Finally, the chart shows the average gas rate collected over the past seven years, then increased in FY22. The proposed increase is 50 percent effective September 1, 2022, to balance overall expenses with revenue for FY23. The following two years (FY24 and FY25) show revenue based on the present rates before the 50 percent increase.
Regarding expenses, the gas enterprise fund has no debt. Conversely, it has provided a loan to police and fire for $378,000, which is owed back to natural gas. The gas enterprise has not incurred significant capital costs over the past decade but is expected to incur capital costs in the next several years for replacement of anode beds for cathodic protection for steel gas pipes.
The revenue requirement for the next 12 months is not increased for capital projects but is increased only enough to maintain the fund balance at approximately $1 million. Revenue for capital projects will be collected in subsequent years. 5 Detail of revenue, expense, and fund balances are displayed in Attachment B. Depreciation is shown as an annual expense item such that the presentation reconciles with audited financial statements, but then depreciation is backed out in the bottom of the table since it is not a cash operating expense. Values for all the months of FY22 are based on trial balance reports provided by the city. Projected wholesale gas values for FY23 and FY24 are based on indicative market prices provided by Shell Trading on July 26, 2022. FY25 is an estimate based on prices falling slightly from FY24 (Attachment C). Other operating costs are escalated annually at three percent, with the exception of PG&E and personnel costs, which are escalated at five percent.
V. Existing Natural Gas Rates and Proposed Increase
The existing gas rate structure is straightforward as the cost of service for gas system customers is essentially the same. The gas system serves residential and small commercial customers within the city limit. All customers tend to be winter peaking from heating load.
The proposed rate design is unchanged, such that most customers always pay the lower baseline rates. The summer allocation of 15 Therms per month covers water heating, cooking, and clothes drying needs in a typical home. Similarly, the winter allocation of 50 Therms per month covers the added demand of heating in a typical home.
The following table shows the current gas rates, effective December 1, 2021. Additionaly, the 50 percent rate increase is included in the table. The proposed rates are for one year only, then rates will go back to the present level. This is being done because volatility in the market makes it impossible to predict rates needed for winter 2023/2024, following this coming winter. This is also being done to require staff to come back to City Council and the public to reset rates as needed following this winter.

6 VI. Effect on a Residential Customer and Comparison to PG&E A typical single-family residential customer in Coalinga uses 360 Therms per year, most of which is used in the winter for space heating. Summer gas usage is for water heating, cooking, and cloths drying only. This is illustrated in the bar chart below.
The next bar chart shows a Coalinga typical customer comparison to what would be paid on the PG&E system. This comparison is important because Coalinga’s retail gas costs continue to be significantly lower than PG&E’s. The gas system, owned and operated by the City of Coalinga, is a valuable service asset to city gas customers.
The PG&E-calculated amount is for a Fresno-based customer on the PG&E system using the same 360 Therms as a Coalinga customer. Over the past 12 months, that PG&E customer would have paid $728 for natural gas. The next column is the amount a Coalinga customer actually paid, which was $352; however, this amount was too low to cover the city’s expenses due to cost increases beyond those anticipated for the last rate increase. A fair comparison to PG&E would be what Coalinga customers should have paid to cover expenses, which was $458. Finally, the last value of $585 is the amount a typical residential customer will pay during the next 12 months. It is important to note that, based on current wholesale gas cost projections, PG&E’s costs will also need to be higher in the coming year, higher than the $728 shown. Detail for the bar chart is shown in Attachment D. 7 VII. Recommendation of this report
The 50 percent increase is recommended for the next 12 months, effective September 1, 2022.
This increase accomplishes the following:
• Anticipates high wholesale gas costs this coming winter based on current futures • Covers increased PG&E transportation costs, including the Cap-and-Trade pass though • Maintains the cash balance in the gas enterprise fund at approximately $1 million • Is limited to one-year only to require a reset of rates for September 1, 2023 • Does not provide for capital expenditures, to be deferred until gas costs drop • Continues to provide rates relatively attractive to Coalinga customers 8 VIII. Illustration of Combined Coalinga Utility Services and Charges The chart below shows the one-year increase for natural gas compared to other Coalinga utilities, also showing already-approved increases for other utilities. The natural gas value of $48.74 is the average monthly value. The actual gas charges will be higher in heating months and lower in the summer.

AUTHORITY
Subject: Approve Purchase of Ambulance Power-Load Gurney System from Stryker Equipment
Meeting Date: Thursday, August 18, 2022
From: Marissa Trejo, City Manager
Prepared by: Greg DuPuis, Fire Chief
I. RECOMMENDATION:
The Fire Chief and City Manager recommend approving the purchase of a Power-Load gurney system for the new ambulance. Stryker has been supplying Coalinga Fire Department with ambulance equipment for over 20 years and maintains consistency throughout our fleet.
II. BACKGROUND:
At the December 2, 2021, council meeting, City Councilapproved the purchase of a new ambulance for the fire department. This purchase included the ambulance, gurney, and related equipment. At the time the manufacture had significant delays sourcing the Power-Load system that goes with the gurney and is standard equipment on all Coalinga Fire Department ambulances. Waiting for the Power-Load to be in stock would have delayed taking delivery of the ambulance even further. To prevent the delay of receiving the ambulance it was decided to order the power-load later when Stryker supply was replenished. We have been informed that Stryker has received stock and have some available for purchase. Our sales rep has one in Fresno and can deliver and install within days of Councilapproval rather than the standard 6-8 week delivery time.
III. DISCUSSION:
1 in 4 EMS workers will suffer a career ending back injury within their first four years in the field. The number one cause - Lifting. Use of the Power-Load system has proven to reduce spinal loading, resulting in reduced injuries, lost or modified workdays and Workers’ Compensation costs. The purchase of the Power-Load gurney system is necessary to meet the current service level objectives of the Fire Department by providing a safe and reliable transport system in our ambulance and is standard equipment in all our current ambulances.
Benefits of the Power-Load system include:
1. Helps boost safety by supporting the gurney throughout loading and unloading. The reduction in spinal load helps prevent cumulative trauma injuries to personnel.
2. Eliminates the need to “steer” the gurney into and out of the ambulance placing less strain and movement on personnel.
3. Helps minimize patient drops by supporting the gurney until the wheels are on the ground.
4. Meets dynamic crash test standards for maximized occupancy safety.
IV. ALTERNATIVES:
1. Do not approve the purchase. However, Stryker has advised of a price increase of 10-15% on October 1, 2022. (Not recommended).
V. FISCAL IMPACT:
The cost of purchasing the Power-Load system plus the Pro Care Maintenance plan for 6 years is $32,329.96. $22,884.76 for the Power-Load and $9,445.20 for preventative maintenance and unlimited repairs for 6 years. This purchase can be paid from IGT funds we have available. The purchase would have no impact on the current adopted budget or the General Fund.

ASSISTANT CITY MANAGER
PUBLIC WORKS/UTILITIES
Street Light Acquisition: The process of acquisition of the streetlights is underway. PGE has contested that we did not give proper notice. With coordination from Tanko, we are restarting the noticing requirements to ensure that the proper PGE contacts are notified of the acquisition process.
TTHM: Project has been awarded and currently in pre-construction and awaiting submittals. SCADA: Project is substantially complete. Expected to be complete in Fall 2022. Northwest and Oil king Infrastructure: Staff is currently working with Blackwater Engineering on finalizing a capital improvement plan to present to Aera for consideration. Water Treatment Plant Solar Facility: Johnson controls is currently working on the project development and financial analysis.
Metering Logistics and Streamlining: Staff is currently evaluating the core reasons that “rereads” are flagged through our billing system. It was discovered that many were a result of “encoder errors” which are a result of faulty touch pads at various meters throughout town. These locations have been identified and corrected as the replacement equipment becomes available.
Cathodic Protection Survey: The 2022 Cathodic survey of our natural gas pipeline has been scheduled with Farwest Corrosion.
Public Works Training Program: Work continues to identify the needs of Public Works regarding training. Most of the efforts focuses on natural gas, water distribution, and Sewer distribution. It will also extend to basic skill sets such as basic electrical troubleshooting. The goal is to create regular intervals of standardized training preparing them to qualify and obtain certifications needed to progress in their career. This program includes a well-organized training room and simulation environment. The training room has been completed. Staff is now working to create a well curated regiment of training exercises and materials. Hayes Bench Donation: Benches have been installed and the project is complete. Civic Ready: Staff is presently working to reimplement the system to support our needs and to be more robust. The system was handed off to the Fire Department, and training for the program has been administered.
New Los Gatos Lift Station: Currently under design. Environmental to proceed once design is complete.
La Questa Lift Station Improvements: The construction phase of the project has begun and is expected to be completed in late 2022.
Tyler EAM: Initial planning discussions have been completed. Tyler has finished the initial installation of the required backend systems. Work to coordinate the implementation of EAM should begin shortly.
Water Conservation: Staff has been working with several water suppliers for additional water to be purchased, enforcing the current water restrictions and working diligently to convey the message of conservation.
Storm Readiness Plan: Staff has been working on standardizing and documenting our approach to storm readiness. The intent is to create a plan that can be followed by anyone and yield positive results.
Street Maintenance: Rubberized asphalt overlays have been completed for various streets identified by their PCI. Furthermore, Public Works is identifying actions that can better serve repair activities such as a small-scale paving machine. With the intent being able to efficiently make repairs to larger scale areas in preparation for further overlay projects. Migrating to Beacon Read Systems: Staff has identified a plan to migrate away from the Read Center platform offering from Badger, as it is no longer supported. Talks with both Badger to move to Beacon for our new AMI water meter installations have begun. Also, our current water/gas meters will be migrated to the Sensus software, AutoRead/FlexNet. This will serve a transition to the eventual automation of all meter reading. Rural Water Contracts: Staff has begun to organize a concerted effort to obtain up to date water contracts with rural water users and inform them of the terms of that water use. Initial letters were submitted to each residence.
Water Loss: In an effort to conserve water, staff has put a focus on water loss. Efforts have ranged from looking for water meters not in the system, verifying multipliers for billing, testing large meters for accuracy, and replacing residential meters when required to do so.
LOCAL STREET PROEJCTS
Elm Ave Improvements (in front of the Fire Department) – Bids have been released and expected bid opening in late August 2022 for award in September.
