AUTHORITY
Subject: Authorize City Manager to Proceed with Preliminary Study and Scope Development for SMART Sunset Corridor Project
Meeting Date: Thursday, April 2, 2026
From: Sean Brewer, City Manager
Prepared by: Jesse Barron, Assistant City Manager
I. RECOMMENDATION:

Authorize staff to initiate Traffic Data Collection (TDC) and analysis for the SMART Sunset Corridor Project to develop a comprehensive Traffic Operation, Safety, and MultimodalAccess Plan for the Sunset Avenue schoolcorridor, and authorize staff to implement near-term operational improvements, as appropriate, based on stakeholder consensus.

II. BACKGROUND:

The SMART Sunset Corridor Project is a targeted initiative to improve traffic operations, pedestrian safety, and multimodalaccess along the Sunset Avenue / Van Ness Street / Cambridge Avenue corridor.

This corridor serves multiple school sites, including elementary, middle, and high school facilities, and experiences high pedestrian volumes and concentrated drop-off/pick-up activity during peak school hours.

As a result, it represents one of the City’s highest priority areas for operationaland safety improvements.

Alta Planning + Design Inc. developed the City’s Active Transportation Plan (ATP) and is recommended for this effort based on their familiarity with localconditions, prior analysis, and established working relationship with City staff.

Initialcosts will be associated with consultant services for the corridor study scoping, concept planning and pre-design, staff is requesting an authorization not to exceed $50k.

The project is being structured to:

Maximize eligibility for external grant funding
Prioritize low-cost, high-impact near-term improvements Phase capitalexpenditures over time
III. DISCUSSION:

In coordination with Alta Planning + Design Inc., the proposed scope includes an evaluation of existing corridor conditions, including traffic circulation, curb management, pedestrian and bicycle access, and safety.

The study will provide a data driven analysis of traffic conflicts and operational deficiencies.

A phased approach is recommended, subject to Council direction, the planning phase will identify near-term operationalchanges, longer-term modifications, and potentialcapital improvements with concepts. The effort will help position the City to pursue external funding by developing grant-ready materials for programs such as ATP and SS4A.

The study area includes the Sunset Avenue corridor and adjacent school frontages and intersections, reflecting current traffic patterns and school related activity. Implementation will require coordination with the Coalinga-Huron Unified School District and City departments to ensure solutions are practical, supported, and effective.

Current conditions indicate:

Congested and inefficient traffic flow during peak periods Conflicts between vehicles, pedestrians, and bicyclists Inconsistent curbside management and loading/unloading practices Limited alignment with best practices for schoolaccess and safety The project is proposed to be delivered in two phases:

Phase 1 – Existing Conditions & Engagement
Analysis of traffic operations, multimodalconditions, curb use, and safety, combined with stakeholder outreach. Findings will inform recommended actions. Development and evaluation of improvement concepts, refinement of preferred strategies, and coordination and outreach with the community, stakeholders and City staff.

Phase 2 – Comprehensive Corridor Plan
Preparation of a unified implementation framework, including a Traffic Operations Plan, Safety Plan, and MultimodalAccess Plan, with identified capital projects, policy recommendations, and implementation priorities.

IV. ALTERNATIVES:

Authorize Project (Recommended)
Modify Scope or Study Area- Direct staff to revise project parameters prior to proceeding Do Not Proceed- Maintain current conditions without a coordinated improvement strategy V. FISCAL IMPACT:

Phase 1 for the TDC and analysis is expected to be an amount not to exceed $50K, funded from Measure C Flexible Funding - Profe4ssional Services.

The project is being structured to:

Maximize eligibility for external grant funding
Prioritize low-cost, high-impact near-term improvements Phase capitalexpenditures over time
Attached is Alta's proposal however this includes a menu of items that can be undertaken however staff is focused on initial planning and developing tangible concepts that can be developed for consideration and future planning and implementation.

Coalinga, CA 93210
Re: SMART Sunset Educational Corridor Traffic Operations and Safety Study Dear Jesse,
We appreciate the opportunity to support the City of Coalinga in advancing the SMART Sunset project. Based on our conversations and site visit, Sunset Street presents a complex set of operational, safety and access challenges that will require a corridor-level response that integrates outreach, engineering, policy and behavior.

We have assembled a team of experts in complete streets design, safe routes to schools, parking & curb management, and traffic engineering that we believe is well suited to delivering the project. We approach school planning through a safety first framework, seeking to align city priorities with grant funding criteria. Following are our proposed staff for this project:
 Sam Corbett, Principal - Planning, Principal-in-Charge  Magnus Barber, Senior Associate - Planning, Project Manager  Siqing Yi, Associate I - Planning, traffic analysis and operations  Eric Purcell, Planner II, Safe-Routes-to-Schools & pick-up/drop-off specialist  Hal Williams, Senior Associate Engineer, engineering oversight and quality assurance  Amanda Zucker, Engineering Associate II, concept design lead  Austin Osburn, Engineering Designer I, concept design We have developed the following proposed scope, schedule and budget to address your requested outcomes. Please let us know if you have any questions or suggested changes.

Project Understanding
Sunset Street serves four schools clustered together on the northern end of Coalinga. The current condition is characterized by traffic congestion, disorganized and inefficient pick-up and drop-off, and a concern for pedestrian and bicyclist safety. The city therefore wishes to conduct a corridor-level study in order to develop a set of recommendations to reduce traffic conflict, improve safety for all users whether they are driving, walking or rolling to school, and to establish more efficient and predictable pick-up and drop-off operations.

Following our meeting with you, we understand the project area to be bounded to the west by California St, Cambridge Ave to the north, Sunset Ave to the east, and E Birch Ave to the south, as shown in Figure 1. 304 12th Street, Suite 2A

Figure 1: Project Area
Proposed Scope
Task 1: Project Management
We will begin the project with an in-person kickoff meeting, including city staff and stakeholders the City may wish to invite such as school district staff or a representative from the parents-teachers association. During the meeting the group will review the proposed scope and schedule and confirm any changes. Either before or after the kickoff meeting, we will also conduct a walk audit with stakeholders (see Task 3) along with site visit of the study area.

We propose half hour biweekly coordination calls between Alta’s project manager and the city project manager.

Alta will invoice monthly on a time and materials basis, including a progress report covering tasks undertaken during the preceding month.

For all deliverables: Alta will respond to a single set of consolidated, non-conflicting, comments on the draft in order to produce the final deliverable.

Deliverables:
 In-person kickoff meeting
 Finalized scope and schedule
 Site visit
 Biweekly coordination calls
Task 2: Existing Conditions
During the kickoff meeting and following site visit/walk audit, Alta will observe pick-up and drop-off operations at the schools. Alta will also observe circulation within the study area of parents driving and any children walking or bicycling. We will document bicycle amenities and parking facilities at the schools, as well as auto parking and bus stops.

We will review collision history in the study area using data from the Statewide Integrated Traffic Records Systems (SWITRS), to identify any potential collision hot spots in the study area or on major routes between the study area and residential areas. We will also request streetscape improvement plans in the area such as the current Caltrans Complete Streets project on SH 33 (Polk St) and SH 198 (Elm St).

Deliverables:
 Existing conditions memorandum
Task 3: Stakeholder Engagement
It will be important to engage with stakeholders to capture and understand their issues, concerns and priorities. We would suggest involving the representatives from the school district, potentially someone from each school, representatives from the parents-teachers association, and any other stakeholders that city staff feel should be invited.

We propose two meetings with stakeholders. The first meeting would be held the same day (or at least during the same trip to Coalinga) as the kickoff meeting, and would involve an introduction of the project to stakeholders and a walk audit of the main routes to the school and key intersections of concern. The second meeting would be held after the completion of the existing conditions, operational analysis, needs assessment, and development of draft alternatives – with the purpose of gathering stakeholder feedback on the draft alternatives for incorporation in the final recommendations.

Deliverables:
 Introductory meeting and walk audit with stakeholders  Second stakeholder meeting to review concepts and draft alternatives  Memorandum summarizing stakeholder input

Task 4: Operational Analysis
We will develop a memorandum detailing current traffic operations in the study area, including the main routes taken by people driving, walking or bicycling, and potential conflict points between the different modes. The memorandum will be based on observations from the site visit and walk audit, a review of current operations and historical collision data, combined with testimony from City staff and stakeholders. The memo will take the form of a needs assessment, detailing observed operational and safety issues that will be addressed in Task 5 Alternatives Development.

Deliverables:
 Operational analysis memorandum
Task 5: Alternatives Development
Based on the data collection, observations, analysis, and outreach in tasks 2-4, we will develop three alternatives to address the loading, circulation and safety issues. The plan views will cover the streets with proposed changes within the project area and will take the form of CAD over aerial. Cross sections will be generated in StreetMix, providing images that quickly communicate planned changes and can be used for outreach. The changes may include a variety of measures such as street design changes to make the streets calmer, more predictable and safer; or curb management and loading zone changes to improve pick-up and drop-off. Specific recommendations will vary depending on observations and city/stakeholder preferences, but could include striping and signage changes, crosswalk enhancements (markings, signage, beacons, etc), curb extensions (bulbouts), striped or protected bicycle lanes, and traffic calming measures such as speed tables, raised crosswalks, roundabouts, traffic circles, chicanes or diverters.

We will develop a set of draft concepts for review with City staff, followed by a refined set of draft concepts that can be presented to stakeholders and City Council. Based on feedback from stakeholders and City Council, a final set of concepts will be produced. We have allowed for two rounds of review and revisions to the concept designs.

Deliverables:
 Up to two review meetings with City staff
 3 conceptual improvement alternatives
o CAD plan view drawings for the corridor
o Cross-sections

Task 6: Cost Estimates
Alta will develop order-of-magnitude cost estimates based on recent local projects (if available), recent Alta projects, and California precedents, for the purposes of aiding city staff and elected officials to make informed decisions about the recommended alternatives and to support upcoming grant applications.

Deliverables:
 Order-of-magnitude cost estimates
Task 7: Grant Readiness
Our team includes several staff with experience assisting clients apply for active transportation, safety, and safe routes to schools grants. As we develop the recommendations and design alternatives, we will favor solutions that are both effective and also implementation focused and grant-ready. We will submit a memorandum with an overview of the relevant grants and which parts of the recommendations may be relevant for each grant.

Deliverables:
 Grant-readiness memorandum
Task 8: Phasing Strategy
We will develop a phasing memorandum that categorizes the projects by implementation timeline. Typically, phasing aligns with project readiness, cost and coordination requirements.  Near Term (within 1 year): improvements that can be implemented quickly due to low cost, minimal materials, or urgent safety needs. Examples might include signage, or educational materials.  Mid-Term (1-3 years): improvements requiring more coordination, higher costs, or specialized materials, but can still be delivered quickly. Examples might include striping for crosswalks or bike lanes, pick-up and dropoff zones.  Long-Term (3+ years): improvements that require significant changes, higher cost, or additional feasibility analysis. Examples might include intersection design changes, physically protected bike lanes, or larger traffic calming measures.

Deliverables:
 Phasing strategy memorandum
Task 9: Report
We will consolidate the memorandums from tasks 1-8 into a draft project report. Alta will respond to a single set of consolidated, non-conflicting, comments on the draft report to produce the final report. 304 12th Street, Suite 2A
Oakland, CA 94607
(510) 788-6878 | altago.com
altago.com
We will participate in up to two presentations for the City Council. We will follow your recommendation on the best approach and timing, but potentially the first meeting would present the draft recommendations and respond to any questions from councilors, and the second would present the final recommendations.

Deliverables:
 Draft and Final Report
 Up to two presentations to City Council
Proposed Schedule
We share the City’s desire to move this project forward as rapidly as possible. It will be crucial to engage with the school district in order to get buy-in on proposed changes and create an actionable plan, which sets some parameters around our proposed stakeholder engagement. The last day of school for the Coalinga Huron Unified School District is June 4th, which may not leave enough time for engagement until the beginning of the fall 2026-27 school year in August. We have built a draft schedule (see below for details) around the assumption that the school district is able to engage prior to the summer break, but we will work with City staff and the school district to determine realistic timing and will adjust the schedule with stakeholder engagement after the summer break if needed.

Budget
The time and materials budget provided on the following page reflects the scope outlined in the Alta team’s proposal.

Funding allocations are informed by our experience delivering similar work products and will provide the most efficient resources and staffing to deliver the scope efficiently while ensuring excellent quality. The total proposed budget is $167,420. Many of the tasks within our proposal can be scalable to meet the specific needs and constraints of the City of Coalinga. We are committed to closely collaborating with you to refine and adjust the project scope, ensuring it aligns perfectly with your goals and expectations. Our team is ready to work with you to tailor the scope to your satisfaction.

AUTHORITY
Subject: Authorize Assistant City Manager to Execute a Task Order with AM Consulting Engineers to Prepare the 2025 Urban Water Management Plan Meeting Date: Thursday, April 16, 2026
From: Sean Brewer, Interim City Manager
Prepared by: Jesse Barron, Assistant City Manager
I. RECOMMENDATION:

CouncilAuthorization for the Assistant City Manager to Execute a Task Order with AM Consulting Engineers (AMCE) to prepare the 2025 Urban Water Management Plan.

II. BACKGROUND:

In January of 2020, the City of Coalinga completed and approved the 2015 Urban Water Management Plan.

These plans are required by the State of California to be drafted and reviewed every five years. The document that was completed was for the years of 2015-2020.

III. DISCUSSION:

The Urban Water Management Planning Act requires urban water suppliers to update their UWMPs every five years and submit the adopted plan to DWR by July 1, 2026. While there have been no substantive statutory changes to the Water Code since the 2020 UWMP cycle, DWR has issued updated guidance, revised standardized submittal tables, and new reporting expectations that materially affect the scope and level of documentation required for the 2025 UWMP. In particular, the 2025 UWMP places increased emphasis on standardized table reporting, consistency with WUEdata, water loss standard compliance, and clarified accounting for stored water.

This proposal reflects those updates and provides a comprehensive scope of services to prepare a complete, defensible, and DWR-ready 2025 UWMP for the City of Coalinga.

IV. ALTERNATIVES:

The Council may choose to not proceed with updating the City’s Urban Water Management Plan and risk being ineligible for grants and other state and federal water infrastructure funding. Staff does not recommend.

Direct staff to an alternative to get the report completed by the due date of July 1, 2026.

V. FISCAL IMPACT:

This agreement will have no impact to the General Fund as it is funded by Water Enterprise funds. Sufficient funds exist in the Water Enterprise (Plant Operations Professional Services) fund to fulfill this totalagreement n

Re: Proposal for Engineering Services – 2025 Urban Water Management Plan Dear Michael,
AM Consulting Engineers (AMCE) is pleased to submit this proposal to assist the City of Coalinga (City) with preparation of its 2025 Urban Water Management Plan (UWMP). AMCE previously prepared the City’s 2015 UWMPs, in addition to the annual validated water audits and annual water supply and demand assessments, and is thoroughly familiar with the City’s water system, service area, water supply portfolio, and demand characteristics. This allows AMCE to efficiently build upon prior adopted plans while ensuring the 2025 UWMP fully complies with current Department of Water Resources (DWR) guidance and reporting expectations.

The Urban Water Management Planning Act requires urban water suppliers to update their UWMPs every five years and submit the adopted plan to DWR by July 1, 2026. While there have been no substantive statutory changes to the Water Code since the 2020 UWMP cycle, DWR has issued updated guidance, revised standardized submittal tables, and new reporting expectations that materially affect the scope and level of documentation required for the 2025 UWMP. In particular, the 2025 UWMP places increased emphasis on standardized table reporting, consistency with WUEdata, water loss standard compliance, and clarified accounting for stored water.

This proposal reflects those updates and provides a comprehensive scope of services to prepare a complete, defensible, and DWR-ready 2025 UWMP for the City of Coalinga.

Task 1 – Data Collection
AMCE will prepare a comprehensive list of data needs required for preparation of the 2025 UWMP and will coordinate with City staff to obtain available information. AMCE will develop a detailed UWMP outline identifying all required chapters, sections, and DWR standardized submittal tables consistent with the 2025 UWMP Guidebook. The outline will be based on the City’s adopted 2020 UWMP and will identify updates and refinements necessary to comply with current guidance, including standardized table reporting, water loss documentation, and stored water accounting. This outline will serve as the framework for preparation of the 2025 UWMP to ensure that all required analyses and documentation are included.

AMCE will coordinate with relevant agencies and include correspondence in an appendix (e.g., adjacent suppliers, Fresno County, groundwater agencies), include administrative items (i.e. Public Water System ID(s), number of connections, reporting basis (fiscal/calendar), and units of measure).

Task 2 – Water Demand Analysis
AMCE will prepare the Service Area Description, Water Use Characterization, SB X7-7, and Normal-Year Water Supply Characterization related demand chapters of the 2025 UWMP. The City’s system description will be updated to reflect current and projected population, climate conditions, housing density, development

Page 2 ends

patterns, and other relevant demographic and socioeconomic factors. AMCE will work with City staff to update population projections using planned land use, growth rates, and available planning documents.

Past, current, and projected water demands will be developed for five-year increments for residential, commercial, industrial, institutional, and landscape and recreational uses. Demand projections will incorporate seasonal variations and monthly demand patterns consistent with DWR standardized reporting tables. AMCE will quantify distribution system water loss using the City’s AWWA Water Loss Audit data and will document progress toward compliance with the State Water Resources Control Board’s water loss standard, as required for the 2025 UWMP.

This chapter will provide a reconciliation memo demonstrating consistency with prior WUE data submittals (e.g., past UWMP tables, AWWA audits), clearly state units (AF/MG) and whether data are reported on a fiscal or calendar-year basis, and Include a brief discussion of the Urban Water Use Objective (UWUO).

AMCE will also evaluate historical water use reductions associated with conservation programs and drought response actions and incorporate anticipated future conservation into demand projections. SB X7-7 compliance reporting will be updated to reflect the City’s 2020 target and actual 2020 water use, consistent with current DWR guidance for the 2025 UWMP cycle. A summary of current and future water demands will be prepared and provided to the City for review prior to finalization.

Task 3 – Water Supply Analysis
AMCE will prepare the System Supplies and Water Supply Reliability chapters of the 2025 UWMP. Existing descriptions and analyses from the 2020 UWMP and other recent planning efforts will be reviewed and updated as necessary. AMCE will evaluate the City’s water supply portfolio and quantify available supplies over a 25-year planning horizon under normal-year, single dry-year, and five consecutive dry-year conditions.

This chapter will include a statement of consistency with applicable Groundwater Sustainability Plan(s) under SGMA, and a short methods appendix documenting hydrologic sequences, climate variability assumptions, and selection of the driest five-year period.

This task will include updated accounting for groundwater recharge, conjunctive use, and stored water consistent with DWR’s clarified methodology to avoid double counting. Recycled water supplies and potential future uses will be evaluated and documented as applicable. Required DWR standardized water supply and reliability tables will be completed as part of this task.

Task 4 – Demand Management Measures
AMCE will review the Demand Management Measures chapter from the 2020 UWMP and update the section to reflect current programs and reporting expectations under the Final 2025 UWMP Guidebook.

The updated chapter will document measures implemented during the previous five years, as well as ongoing and planned measures intended to manage water demand and improve water use efficiency. The DMM Chapter will document progress toward 2020 SB X7-7 targets, provide rationale for any variances and summarize assumptions and estimated future savings for planned measures, with citations. Reporting will be structured to align with DWR’s streamlined demand management requirements.

Task 5 – Water Conservation and Shortage Contingency Plan AMCE will update the City’s water conservation programs and Water Shortage Contingency Plan (WSCP) to reflect current practices, regulatory requirements, and lessons learned from recent drought conditions.

This task will include review and refinement of shortage levels, demand reduction actions, enforcement measures, and implementation timing. AMCE will work with City staff to update descriptions of potential

Page 3 ends

revenue impacts during water shortage periods and identify potential rate adjustment considerations, consistent with UWMP guidance. The WSCP will includes the six standard shortage levels, communication protocols, compliance/enforcement, and evaluation procedures.

As part of this task, AMCE will prepare a Drought Risk Assessment based on the driest five-year historic sequence. The assessment will evaluate supply reliability under drought conditions and compare projected supplies and demands over a five-year drought period, considering climate variability and anticipated regulatory changes. Required DWR standardized tables related to the Water Shortage Contingency Plan and Drought Risk Assessment will be completed.

The WSCP will include a concise seismic risk assessment and mitigation summary and catastrophic interruption procedures. The WSCP will also include an Annual Water Supply and Demand Assessment (AWSDA) methodology section (decision logic, indicators, data sources) and include a one-page flowchart/SOP.

Task 6 – Prepare Draft 2025 UWMP
AMCE will prepare a complete Draft 2025 UWMP for City review. The draft will incorporate all required chapters, analyses, and standardized submittal tables identified in the 2025 UWMP Guidebook. The Draft UWMP will be provided in ADA -accessible PDF and Word formats for staff review, and DWR standardized tables will be provided in Excel format. AMCE will meet with City staff to review comments on the draft and will revise the document accordingly to prepare a Public Draft UWMP. AMCE will provide a completed Appendix F Checklist with page references. AMCE will assist the City with the public hearing notice and prepare presentation materials to support City Council review of the Public Draft UWMP.

Task 7 – Final 2025 UWMP
Following the public review period, AMCE will incorporate comments and prepare the Final 2025 UWMP.

The final document will be provided in ADA- accessible PDF and Word formats and prepared for formal adoption by the City Council. AMCE will assist with preparation of adoption materials and will support the City during the public hearing. Following adoption, AMCE will upload the Final UWMP and associated standardized table data to DWR’s WUE data portal and submit the required copy to the California State Library. AMCE will also assist the City in responding to any comments received from DWR during its review of the UWMP.

FEE
AMCE proposes to prepare the 2025 UWMP for a not to exceed fee of $39,000. Monthly progress invoices will be submitted based on work completed during the previous month.

We are ready to proceed immediately upon Notice to Proceed. We thank you in advance for considering our firm for these tasks and if you have any questions do not hesitate to call me at (559) 288-9172.

STAFF REPORT - CITY COUNCIL/SUCCESSOR AGENCY/PUBLIC FINANCE

AUTHORITY
Subject: Adopt Resolution No. 4317 Authorizing the City Manager to Execute Agreements for Water Conveyance Services for Pleasant Valley Water Conveyance Partners and for Gladstone California Water LP
Meeting Date: Thursday, April 16,2026
From: Sean Brewer, City Manager
Prepared by: Jesse Barron, Assistant City Manager
I. RECOMMENDATION:

City Council is recommended to approve a resolution and agreements for conveyance of water owned by Pleasant Valley Water Conveyance Partners (Farmers) and Gladstone California Water (LP) during the 2026/27 water year.

II. BACKGROUND:

The City has a history of providing untreated water services to both PVWCP and Gladstone. These wholesale activities benefit the city’s water ratepayers.

III. DISCUSSION:

These agreements are for transportation-only of farmer-owned water, not for the sale of excess City water. (Any proposed agreement(s) for sale of excess water will follow, depending on water availability.) Each year, the farmers request services from the city to move surface water they own through the Coalinga Canal, using the city’s conveyance agreement with Westlands Water District. The effort required by the City to provide this service is administrative and financial only. The agreements must be prepared and executed. Westlands personnel read the meters each month, then city staff prepare and issue the billing statements and collect the amounts due. For conveyance only, the proposed cost is unchanged at $25 /AF. Dan Bergmann of IGS continues to support this effort to ensure water volumes are tracked accurately, and billed and collected timely.

The attached agreements are proposed to be effective retroactively to March 1, 2026, which was the beginning of the 2026/2027 water year.

IV. ALTERNATIVES:

Approve the agreement (recommended)
Deny the agreement and not provide water conveyance. (not recommended) V. FISCAL IMPACT:

The projected net benefit to water enterprise rate payers is approximately $57,000, based on 2,300 AF of transfer water last year.

STAFF REPORT - CITY COUNCIL/SUCCESSOR AGENCY/PUBLIC FINANCE

AUTHORITY
Subject: Waive Second Reading and Adopt Ordinance No. 878 Amending Chapter 6 of Title 7 of the Coalinga Municipal Code related to Summary Abatement of Public Nuisances
Meeting Date: Thursday, April 16, 2026
From: Sean Brewer, City Manager
Prepared by: Jesse Barron, Assistant City Manager
I. RECOMMENDATION:

Waive Second Reading and Adopt Ordinance No. 878 Amending Chapter 6 of Title 7 of the Coalinga Municipal Code Relating to Summary Abatement of Public Nuisances.

II. BACKGROUND:

Fire incidents within the City of Coalinga have raised questions about the City’s authority to immediately abate and place liens on fire-damages or burned properties within the City limits. Under Chapter 6 of Title 7 of the Coalinga Municipal Code, the City has an established property maintenance and nuisance abatement process. This process requires: (a) notice to the property owner describing the nuisance and required corrective action; (b) an opportunity for the owner to request an abatement hearing before the City Manager and appeal to the City Council; (c) City-performed abatement if the nuisance is not corrected; and (d) Councilapproval of abatement costs prior to placement of a lien, specialassessment, or personal obligation.

On February 5, 2026, the City Council reviewed a sample summary abatement ordinance from the City of Carlsbad, which outlined streamlined emergency authority, required documentation, post-abatement notice, and a path for confirmation of costs and lien placement.

III. DISCUSSION:

The attached ordinance provides for a summary abatement process. The abatement provides that a nuisance may be summarily abated without notice, hearing, or a warrant when immediate action is necessary to preserve or protect the public health and safety. The City Manager or designee shall make a determination that a public nuisance exists, posing an immediate risk to the health, safety, or welfare of the public, persons in the city, or the environment. The City Manager or designee shallattempt to contact the responsible party and property owner to request abatement of the nuisance prior to the City proceeding with summary abatement.

Upon such notice, the City Manager board, fence, or secure the building or site, raze and grade that portion of the building or site to prevent collapse or remove any hazard to the general public, and take any other action as reasonably appropriate under the circumstances of an immediate hazard.

The City Manager or designee shall prepare a report of summary abatement that contains a description of the time, duration, type, and extent of the nuisance; an evaluation of the risks to the health, safety, and welfare caused by allowing the nuisance to continue; steps taken to contact the responsible party or property owner; and allcosts associated with the summary abatement. Within ten (10) business days after the determination is made by the City Manager or designee to summarily abate the nuisance, a notice of determination and a copy of the report of summary abatement shall be served on the responsible party, the owner of record of the parcel of land where the nuisance originated, and all persons known to have any legal interest in the property.

Subsequently, a hearing to assess abatement costs and affirm whether immediate action was necessary to preserve or protect the health, safety, and/or welfare of the public, persons in the city and/or the environment shall be conducted before the City Councilat the request of the responsible party and/or the property owner.

The City Council shall determine whether the nuisance posed an immediate risk to the health, safety, or welfare of the public, persons in the City, and/or the environment; whether the responsible party and/or property owner was unavailable, incapable, and/or unwilling to abate the nuisance; the correct abatement cost; and confirm the report of summary abatement as presented or modified, among other things. The decision of the City Council shall be final.

In addition to any other applicable procedures, the cost of summary abatement may be collected or become a lien or specialassessment against the real property.

IV. ALTERNATIVES:

Do not waive the second reading and adopt Ordinance 878.

V. FISCAL IMPACT:

Fiscal impact is realized at the time of nuisance determination and subsequent abatement activities. All associated costs incurred by the City are recoverable through direct billing, property liens, or special assessments. Accordingly, while there may be short-term cash flow impacts, the long-term fiscaleffect to the City is minimal.

SECTION 6.01. WORK SCH EDULES.

The City will make every effort to avoid five (5) day back-to- back work schedules except under extenuating circumstances.

A. Officers and Police Technicians will receive work schedules at least three weeks prior to implementation.

B. Any change to the posted work schedule that affects an employee requires at least three weeks' prior notice to the affected employee except in situations where such a change is necessitated by event(s) beyond the City's control. If the City changes an employee's schedule without giving three weeks' notice, the City shall pay each affected employee a stipend of $25. This stipend is paid per occurrence, not per shift. For example, if a scheduled change is required that is in t h e City's control and such change affects multiple shifts the City will pay the employee $25 because the schedule was changed without notice on one (1) occasion.

SECTION 6.03. OVERTIME
A. DEFINITION. Overtime is defined as assigned and authorized, or otherwise permitted time actually worked beyond the established 40 hours for non-sworn personnel and 84 hours in a 14-day period for sworn personnel. All hours worked up to 84 hours in a 14-day period for sworn personnel are pensionable through the California Public Employees' Retirement System (PERS). Sick leave, vacation, holidays and compensatory time will not count as hours worked for the purposes of computing overtime.

B. OVERTIME CONTROL POLICIES. The City and the Association will meet and confer in good faith regarding overtime control policy language to be implemented. Policies will be finalized in a side letter to be approved by May 31, 2026.

C. BASIC RATE. Except as otherwise provided in this Memorandum of Understanding, at the Police Chiefs discretion, compensation for overtime shall be either one and one half (1 1/2) times the regular rate of pay or one and one half (1 1/2) hours compensatory time for each hour worked.

D. COMPENSATORY TIME. Employees may accumulate up to 400 hours of compensatory time. Employees with 400 hours of compensatory time will receive overtime pay and not be eligible to earn additional compensatory time. Employees may cash out compensatory time in excess of 200 hours once each calendar year. Employees wishing to cash out these hours must submit a written request to payroll by December 1 to receive payment through regular payroll on or about December 15.

E. CONVERSION OF COMPENSATORY TIME. Employees may convert compensatory time accruals

MOU BETWEEN CITY OF COALINGA & COALINGA POA

Page 7 of 19 ends

With respect to a deferred compensation conversion, employees who qualify must notify the Financial Services Department of their decision to convert compensatory time by December 1 and conversion shall take place by December 15.

SECTION 6.04. CALLBACK PAY.

Employees called back to work by the Police Chief or a designated representative shall be paid a minimum of four (4) hours straight-time pay or one and one half (1 1/2) times regular rate of pay or one and one half (1 1/2) hours compensatory time for each hour worked if the employee works in excess of 40 hours for nonshift personnel or 80 hours for shift personnel in a pay period. The Police Chief may elect to fill station staffing needs personally or by the Commander when, in the Chief's judgment, the best interest of the department would be served.

SECTION 6.05. COURT PAY.

Employees subpoenaed to appear in court in connection with their official duties on a regularly scheduled day off, and who are called to report to court, shall receive a minimum of four (4) hours straight-time pay or one and one half (1 1/2) times regular rate of pay or one and one half (1 1/2) hours compensatory time for each hour worked if employee works in excess of 40 hours for non-shift personnel and 80 hours for shift personnel in a pay period.

SECTION 6.06. STANDBY PAY.

Employees ordered by the Chief or authorized designee to stand by for court time or for other operational functions and restricted as to their movement while off duty shall be entitled to standby pay. Standby pay shall be calculated as follows: One and one half times the employee's regular hourly rate times twenty-five percent (1.5 x regular hourly rate x 25% = standby pay rate). Standby pay shall be paid for fifty-percent (50%) of the time the employee is required to stand by but in no event shall the pay be less than the pay for a one-hour minimum, calculated in accordance with the standby pay formula herein described. For example: Assume an employee was asked to stand by for a four (4) hour period. If the employee's regular hourly rate is $20.00 per hour, the calculation for the Standby Pay would be $20.00 x 1.5 x .25 = $7.50 per hour. Four (4) hours x $7.50 = $30.00. If the employee were on standby for 1/2 hour, the employee should be paid the minimum (1 hour's pay).

SECTION 6.07. ANNUAL TRAINING.

The City will make every effort to provide each officer 40 hours and each dispatcher 24 hours of annual training. However, both the City and the Association recognize that staff size and availability may make this training goal difficult to achieve.

Prepared by: Sean Brewer, City Manager
I. RECOMMENDATION:

Receive an overview of the City’s adopted strategic priorities and provide direction to staff regarding Council priorities to guide development of the FiscalYear 2026–2027 budget.

II. BACKGROUND:

On March 29, 2025, the City Council participated in a facilitated goal-setting session to establish strategic priorities for the City. The purpose of that session was to align the Counciland executive leadership on key focus areas, strengthen working relationships, and identify priority initiatives intended to enhance quality of life, public safety, infrastructure, and economic development within the community.

The outcome of the session was the identification of six primary strategic priority areas:

Infrastructure and City Improvements
Community Engagement and Events
Public Safety and Emergency Preparedness
Technology and Administrative Modernization
Employee and Organizational Development
Housing and Economic Development
Since that time, staff has been actively working to implement projects and initiatives aligned with these priorities and has incorporated them into ongoing operations, capital planning, and policy development efforts.

Additionally, since the adoption of these priorities, the composition of the City Council has changed, and newly appointed Councilmembers were not part of the original strategic planning session. As such, it is appropriate to provide a summary of the adopted framework and confirm alignment moving forward.

III. DISCUSSION:

This agenda item is intended to serve as a high-level review of the City’s current strategic direction and to facilitate Council discussion as staff begins preparation of the FiscalYear 2026–2027 budget.

The discussion will focus on the following key areas:

Confirmation that the existing strategic priority areas continue to reflect Council’s direction Identification of any adjustments or areas of increased emphasis Consideration of whether the City should focus on completing existing initiatives or expanding into new efforts
Opportunity for Councilmembers to introduce new ideas or initiatives for consideration The City currently has a significant number of projects and initiatives underway across multiple departments.

As part of this discussion, staff is seeking policy-level direction to ensure that available resources, including funding and staffing capacity, are aligned with Council’s highest priorities.

This discussion is not intended to revisit or recreate the entire strategic plan, but rather to reaffirm and refine the City’s direction to ensure continued progress and alignment with Councilexpectations.

IV. ALTERNATIVES:

Provide direction as recommended
Provide alternative direction regarding priorities for FY 2026–2027 Continue the item to a future meeting for additional discussion V. FISCAL IMPACT:

Project Name: Credit Card Payments for all Services (Completed 2/4/2026) Reporting Period: January 2026

1. Project Overview:

Scope: To accept credit card payment for all services
Timeline: Expected Date of Completion: February 2026

2. Executive Summary
The City currently accepts credit card payments only for utility billing. Payments for other services— such as business licenses, permits, and administrative transactions—must still be made via cash, check, or money order.

In accordance with SB 379, most California cities and counties are required to implement an online, automated permitting platform for solar-related permits by September 30, 2024. This transition highlights the City’s ongoing challenges with its current merchant payment processor.

At present, the City uses OpenEdge for credit card processing. However, the provider imposes substantial service fees and lacks the capability to distinguish payments made for services beyond utility billing. Despite efforts to address this—such as requesting a rate analysis and reviewing alternative proposals. The projected annual processing cost remains high, exceeding $300,000.

City staff have also engaged Tyler Technologies, the provider of the City’s financial system, to explore a more cost-effective payment solution.

3. Timeline:

July – Obtain service and rate comparison from TylerTechnologies for the service August – Decide on a solution and implement

1. Continuing service with Open Edge

2. Start merchant service and implement solution with TylerTechnologies October – Select merchant service company
November – Begin application implementation
February – Go Live with new application

4. Budget:

Project Name: Chart of Accounts
Reporting Period: January 2026

1. Project Overview:

Scope: Revamp the Chart of Accounts to meet GAAP and GASB requirements for financial statement reporting
Timeline: Expected Date of Completion: June 2026

2. Executive Summary:

In 2017/2018, the City of Coalinga implemented ERP Pro 10, which included a redesign of the Chart of Accounts. However, over time, the structure has become noncompliant with GASB standards.

When new budget lines were created, the intended purpose of accounts—such as the proper use of revenue and expenditure categories and subcategories—was not consistently considered. This has led to the commingling of expenditures; for example, capital expenses have been recorded as operating expenses and vice versa. As a result, preparing accurate financial statements has become a cumbersome and time-consuming process.

3. Timeline:

September – Obtain project scope and quote from Tylertechnologies October – Begin the project
July 2026 – Go Live with the new chart of accounts

4. Budget:

Project Name: Decentralize Finance Functions
Reporting Period: January 2026

1. Project Overview:

Scope: Decentralize finance functions through process automation using workflow. Finance functions include Accounts Payable, Accounts Receivable, Purchase Orders, Journal Entries, Miscellaneous Revenue receipts, Travel Requests, and Budget Amendments.

Timeline: Expected Date of Completion: June 30, 3027

2. Executive Summary:

The Financial Services Department is undertaking a strategic initiative to decentralize its finance function in response to persistent inefficiencies in the current centralized model. This project is driven by the need to enhance operational responsiveness, improve accountability at all levels, and streamline financial workflows across the organization.

Recent internal assessments have highlighted critical delays in budget execution, lack of transparency in financial reporting, and bottlenecks in procurement and expenditure approvals.

Additionally, the existing financial system is not utilized to its full extent to ensure control and compliance. As a result, the current centralized structure has become a constraint on timely decisionmaking and departmental autonomy.

Decentralization is being pursued as a solution to distribute financial responsibilities more evenly, empower departments with direct control over their budgets, and foster a more agile and responsive finance ecosystem.

Project Name: Revise Fund Balance and Reserve Policy
Reporting Period: January 2026

1. Project Overview:

Scope: Revise Fund Balance and Reserve policy by leveraging the Golden Cone of Prosperity model Timeline: Expected date of completion: June 2026

2. Executive Summary:

The City of Coalinga’s Fund Balance and Reserve Policy is not just a fiscal management tool—it is a foundational element of the City’s long-term financial resilience and prosperity. In alignment with the Government Finance Officers Association (GFOA)’s Golden Cone of Prosperity, this policy reinforces the importance of strong financial foundations to support higher-level community outcomes such as economic stability, service reliability, equity, and sustainable growth.

The GFOA’s Golden Cone of Prosperity is a nationally recognized framework that illustrates how municipalities can build toward community prosperity by focusing first on essential financial disciplines. The cone begins with core practices like maintaining adequate reserves and liquidity and ascends toward more ambitious goals like equity-based budgeting and long-term community wellbeing.

This policy directly supports the base layer of the Golden Cone—Reserves and Liquidity—by ensuring that the City:
• Maintains sufficient reserves in the General Fund to manage revenue volatility, emergencies, and economic downturns.
• Sets strategic reserve levels for Enterprise Funds to cover operational continuity, infrastructure reinvestment, and utility rate stability.
• Commits to annual review and adjustment of reserve targets based on updated forecasts and evolving community needs.

By strengthening the City’s reserve practices, Coalinga will build the fiscal foundation necessary for sound budgetary planning, responsible capital investment, risk management, and ultimately, community prosperity.
