Summary/Background
The monthly financial report includes General Fund Reserved Cash Analysis Graphs and the City of Colfax Cash Summary Report (with supporting documentation).

All allocations will be funded by the end of the fiscal year. o Fund 300 – Capital Projects. This is the new project for the installation of a metal storage building at the City Corporation Yard.

19 City of Colfax Lift Station #2 Pump Motor Rebuild – Flo-Line Technology Inc.

Staff Report May 24, 2023
Staff Report to City Council
FOR THE MAY 24, 2023 REGULAR CITY COUNCIL MEETING
From: Wes Heathcock, City Manager
Prepared by: Wes Heathcock, City Manager
Subject: Lift Station #2 Pump Motor Rebuild – Flo-Line Technology Inc.

Budget Impact Overview:

N/A: Funded: √ Un-funded: Amount: $11,376 Fund(s): 561
Summary/Background
The City owns and maintains four sewer lift stations. Lift Station #2 has four pump motors with two motors in series that are designed to alternate usage to reduce the wear on just one pump. The pump redundancy is intended to create a back-up system should one of the pump motors fail. One of the two pumps in the series has failed, therefore, the lift station operation redundancy is not currently possible.

Staff believe it is prudent to rebuild the motor for the Lift Station. Flo-Line Technology Inc provided the attached proposal to rebuild the motor at $11,376, which includes a 10% contingency. In addition, Commercial Pump will install the motor under a separate agreement within the City Manager’s signatory limit.

Fiscal Impacts
The motor rebuild is funded with Fund 561 in the amount not to exceed $11,376.

Attachments:

1. Resolution __-2023

2. Proposals Flo-Line Technology Inc
RECOMMENDED ACTION: Approve Resolution __- 2023 authorizing the City Manager to enter into agreement with Flo-Line Technology Inc. to rebuild Lift Station #2 pump in the amount not to exceed $11,376.

From: Wes Heathcock, City Manager
Prepared by: Laurie Van Groningen, Finance Director
Subject: Annual Appropriation Limits
Budget Impact Overview:

N/A: √ Funded: Un-funded: Amount: Fund(s):

Summary/Background
In 1979, California voters approved Proposition 4, an initiative that added Article XIII B to the California Constitution. This constitutional amendment, known as the Gann Initiative, placed limits on the growth of expenditures for publicly funded programs. Division 9 of Title 1, beginning with Section 7900 of the Government Code, was then added to law to specify the process for calculating state and local government appropriation limits and appropriations subject to limitation under Article XII B of the Constitution. These constitutional and statutory sections explain and define the appropriations limit and appropriations subject to limitation as they apply to state and local government, and require that each entity of government formally "adopt" its appropriations limit for a given fiscal year and certify actual appropriations limit for the preceding year.

The data required to complete the calculation is provided by the State of California, Department of Finance.

The appropriation limit is calculated based on two factors: a percentage change in population in conjunction with a change in the cost of living or price. Under Proposition 111, there are options available for each of the calculation factors:
 Population Factor – The City can elect to utilize the percent growth in City population or the percent growth in County population.
 Price Factor – The City can elect to use the percent growth in State per capita personal income or the percent change in assessed valuation in new non-residential construction.

The population and price factors are multiplied together to calculate the Growth factor. The Growth factor is applied to the previous year calculated appropriated limit to determine the current fiscal year appropriation limit.

The Appropriations Limitation (Limit) imposed by the Propositions creates a restriction on the amount of revenue which can be appropriated in any fiscal year. Not all revenues are restricted by the Limit, only those which are referred to as “proceeds of taxes”. During any fiscal year, a city may not appropriate any proceeds of taxes they receive in excess of their Limit. In fact, any excess funds remaining after two years must be returned to the taxpayers.

RECOMMENDED ACTION: Adopt Resolution XX-2023 certifying compliance with the Fiscal Year 2022-2023 Appropriation Limitation and establishing the Appropriation Limitation for the Fiscal Year 2023- 2024
Item 3F
27 City of Colfax Annual Appropriation Limits
Staff Report May 24, 2023
For the 2023-2024 Appropriation Limit calculation, the growth in Placer County population of .21% is more favorable than the City of Colfax percent decline of -1.08 % and has therefore been utilized in the calculation.

For the price factor, the percentage change in State per capita income of 4.44% is used to calculate the Limitation. The population and price factors are multiplied together for a combined factor of 1.047. The combined growth factor is applied to the fiscal year 2022-2023 Appropriation limit of $7,015,627 to determine the fiscal year 2023-2024 limit of $7,342,508.

Based on the estimated actuals for fiscal year 2022-2023 and the proposed fiscal year 2023-2024 budget the City will be well under its Appropriation Limit for both years.

Subject: Fiscal Year 2023-2024 Rate Adjustments
Budget Impact Overview:

N/A: √ Funded: Un-funded: Amount: Fund(s):

Summary/Background
Effective July 1, 2023, the City will be implementing annual rate adjustments for the following categories:

1. Sewer Impact Fees

2. CalPERS retirement Employer and Employee contribution rates

3. City employee salary adjustments
Sewer Impact Fees
New connections to the City of Colfax sewer system are assessed a sewer impact fee (connection fee) in accordance with Municipal Code Chapter 13.08. The Code stipulates that the sewer impact fee shall be adjusted on July 1st of each year by the City Engineer by a percentage equal to the annual percentage of increase or decrease in the San Francisco Bay Area construction cost index, as published in the May Engineering NewsRecord (ENR) or equivalent ENR data.

The City has received the May 2023 ENR data from GHD and the construction cost index is reported at a

1.75% increase. The City is applying the increase to calculate the fiscal year 2023-2024 sewer impact fee as reflected in the chart below. Effective July 1, 2023, the sewer impact fee will be adjusted to $11,310 per Equivalent Dwelling Unit (EDU).

Fiscal Year Previous ENR% New Rate*
2021-2022 $9,300 4.70% $9,740
2022-2023 $9,740 14.2% $11,120

Salary Schedules
In accordance with the Memorandum of Understanding between the City of Colfax and I.U.O.E Stationary Engineers, Local 39 (Union), a cost-of-living adjustment (COLA) is due effective July 1, 2023. The COLA is based on an average of the Consumer Price Index (CPI) for San Francisco- Oakland-San Jose Urban Wage Earners and Clerical Workers and United States City Average Urban Wage Earners and Clerical Workers.

The average CPI for the fiscal year 2022-2023 COLA calculation is 4.70%. The contracted maximum increase of 4% will be applied. Consistent with previous years and the adopted operating budget, the City will apply this increase to both represented and non-represented employees’ salary schedules. The salary schedules for fiscal year 2023-2024 are attached to this report.

Monthly Sewer Rates
In June of 2018, the City Council, after due notice, public hearing, and protests heard and received in an open and public meeting adopted and approved the City of Colfax Wastewater Rate Study prepared by Rural Community Assistance Corporation (RCAC) relating to the Sewer Service Charges for Fiscal Years 2018- 2019 through 2022-2023. The Sewer Service Charges adopted by Resolution 42-2018 are reflected below.

The City has initiated a new five-year Rate Study that is not anticipated to be completed until later this calendar year. We anticipate reporting results and recommending any rate adjustments by January 2024. In the meantime, we recommend that the monthly sewer rate be held at the current rate of $143.07 ($286.14 bimonthly billing) that was effective July 1, 2023.

Staff Report to City Council
FOR THE MAY 24, 2023 REGULAR CITY COUNCIL MEETING
From: Wes Heathcock, City Manager
Prepared by: Wes Heathcock, City Manager
Subject: Construction Support Contract Amendment – Wood Rodgers Budget Impact Overview:

N/A: Funded: √ Un-funded: Amount: $35,600 Fund(s): 575
Summary/Background
On June 23, 2021, the City of Colfax and Wood Rodgers, Inc. entered into a professional services agreement for $555,560 to complete improvement plans and manage construction for the Solar, Algae Reduction and I&I Mitigation projects funded with State Water Resource Control Board (SWRCB) Clean Water State Revolving Funds (CWSRF). The agreement was subsequently amended by Resolution on October 29, 2022 raising the agreement amount to $662,520 to enhance design components of the Algae Reduction and I&I Mitigation projects.

Algae Reduction Project – Solicitation for SCADA Professional The Algae Reduction Project requires a professional firm to develop programming to control the new Supervisory Control and Data Acquisition system that will be provided to the City by the contractor constructing the Algae Reduction Project. Wood Rodgers provided the attached proposal for $23,600 to manage the solicitation and proposal selection process. City staff believes that Wood Rodgers is uniquely suited to manage this process since they are intimately familiar with these Projects, and they have managed similar professional solicitation in the past.

The City has been working with Wood Rodgers over the past four years to develop, implement and manage the CWSRF grant project. As shown in their attached proposal, this amendment to their agreement increases the budget by $35,600 to $698,120. As explained in the proposal, the amendment includes $12,000 to augment the time and material budget out-of-scope work performed over the past year.

Staff recommends that City Council authorize amendment of Wood Rodgers’ agreement as outlined in their attached proposal.

Fiscal Impacts
The additional $35,600 cost will be reimbursed by the State through the existing CWSRF funding Agreement No. D2101007 executed between the City and SWRCB on January 6, 2022.

Staff Report to City Council
FOR THE MAY 24, 2023 REGULAR CITY COUNCIL MEETING
From: Wes Heathcock, City Manager
Prepared by: Carl Moore, City Engineer
Subject: Community Development Block Grant – Road Rehabilitation Projects Engineering Design with GHD Inc.

Budget Impact Overview:

N/A: Funded: √ Un-funded: Amount: $333,838 Fund(s): 358 Summary/Background
Council approved Resolution 25-2021 authorizing the City Manager to enter into agreement with GHD for Engineering Design Services for the Community Development Block Grant (CDBG) Road Rehabilitation in an amount not to exceed $333,838. The roadway segments included portions of Church Street, Culver Street, School Street, Pleasant Street, and Forest Hill Street, and the total grant request was $2,954,035. Since the City was authorized to request up to $3,500,000, a second application was submitted on July 10, 2020 for portions of Pine Street and the intersection of Culver Street with W. Oak Avenue.

CDBG funding has not been released and is expected to be released by June 2023. Due to the 2-year delay in CDBG funding, GHD has requested a budget amendment to address cost escalation and inflation.

The $65,550 budget amendment is for GHD’s potholing and plans, specifications, and estimate (PS&E) preparation ($59,590) and includes a 10% contingency ($5,960).

Staff recommends that the City Council authorize the City Manager to execute a budget amendment with GHD for final design and bid documents for both CDBG Road Rehabilitation projects in the amount of $65,550.

If the City Council approves this Resolution, staff will not authorize GHD to begin their work until such time as complete authorization from HCD to proceed is received.

Fiscal Impacts
The CDBG Road Rehabilitation Project design costs are assigned to Fund 358 and reimbursable from the CDBG Over the Counter (OTC) grant funding in the amount of $65,550.00 Attachments:

Subject: 143 Whitcomb Ave. (APN 006-072-001) – Design Review Budget Impact Overview:

N/A: √ Funded: Un-funded: Amount: Fund(s):

Summary/Background
A design review application to develop a self-storage facility on the subject site was submitted by Walter White and Jim Marconi. In response to staff comments, the design of the proposal was revised and resubmitted. The revised plans include a modicum of architectural interest with variation in building roof forms of the street facing buildings, a mix of exterior materials, sidewalks on the project frontage along both Whitcomb Ave. and Railroad St., and additional landscaping, among other revisions.

During the review process, an adjoining property owner reviewed the plans and informed staff that grading of the site by a prior property owner rendered his access easement over the project site and an existing public utilities easement unusable, and the proposed project included buildings over public and private utility and drainage easements.

In cooperation with the adjoining property owner and City staff, the applicant made further modifications to the project to address the conflicts with the easements on the site. A detailed description of the existing and proposed modifications to the private and public easements is provided in the Discussion section below.

Scope of Review
Land development is subject to the goals, policies, and objectives of the Colfax General Plan and to the quantitative and qualitative standards of the Colfax Municipal Code (CMC). Per CMC section 17.32.010(C) design review is required for new construction. If the City Council approves the design review application for the subject project, before building permits may be issued, City Council approval of changes to the public easements on the site will be required.

Discussion
Project Site and Context
The project site is on the north side of Whitcomb Ave. approximately 1,000 feet west of S. Auburn St. at the northwest corner of the “T” intersection of Railroad St. and Whitcomb Ave., as delineated with red lines in Figure 1. Along the project frontage, Railroad St. is unimproved with no curb, gutter, or sidewalk and is unpaved, except for approximately the first 40 feet at the Whitcomb Ave. intersection. Whitcomb Ave. has curbs and gutters on both sides and is paved.

There are no sidewalks along the project frontage. Water and sewer service are available from a 12-inch water line and an 8-inch sewer line that run under Whitcomb Ave. along the full length of RECOMMENDED ACTION: Approve a Design Review application to allow the construction of a 332-unit self-storage facility, subject to conditions.

the project frontage and beyond.

An intermittent stream drains south from the northeast corner of the property along the long segment of the east property line before it is piped in a 48-inch storm drainpipe at the jog in the east side property line approximately 150 north of Whitcomb Ave. The storm drainpipe extends under Whitcomb Ave. and onto properties to the south.

The site is 2.56 acres and has an irregular shape with almost 450 feet of frontage along Whitcomb Ave. and 150 feet of frontage along Railroad St. Previous grading of the site created two pads separated by an approximately 2:1 slope that runs perpendicular to Whitcomb Ave. The westerly pad is approximately five feet to eight feet higher in elevation than the easterly pad. The site drains to the south toward Whitcomb Ave. and is devoid of trees.

Properties to the east are zoned RM-2 and properties on all other sides of the project site are in the Light Industrial zoning district. Properties adjacent to the project site on the north side of Whitcomb Ave. are vacant and there are two one-story commercial/light industrial buildings across the street on the south side of Whitcomb Ave. The vacant site in the RM-2 zone to the east of the rear portion of the property is currently on the market for sale.

Primary access to the facility is from Whitcomb Ave. through a gate near the westerly side of the site. Four parking spaces, including one handicapped accessible space, are located on the street side of the gate and a bicycle rack is provided just inside the gate near the entrance to the office.

Long rectangular buildings that are one unit deep are located around the perimeter of the site and three buildings are in the interior of the site. Buildings A, K, and J are along the Whitcomb Ave. frontage and Building H is along the Railroad St. frontage. Gated emergency vehicle access (EVA) is located between Buildings J and K. The project site plan is shown in Figure 2.

City of Colfax 143 Whitcomb Ave. (APN 006-072-001) – Design Review
Except for Building C, all the buildings are one-story. Building C traverses the transition slope on the site and has a two-story element on the lower level where the grade steps down. Architectural interest is provided on the street-facing elevation of buildings with street frontage (Buildings A, K, J, and H) through varied roof forms, windows, metal awnings over windows, vegetation screen grates, and varied exterior finish materials. The remaining buildings have shallow shed roofs and little architectural detail. Building heights vary from approximately 13 feet to 22 feet and galvanized metal roofing is proposed. As a condition of approval, the roofing material shall be non-reflective. Six-foot wrought iron fencing and gates are proposed between the buildings along Whitcomb Ave and Railroad St. Elsewhere, 6-foot cyclone security fencing with slats is proposed between the buildings around the perimeter of the site.

Figures 3, 4, and 5 illustrate the typical building elevations for a street-facing building (Figure 3), the typical perimeter building without a street-facing façade (Figure 4), and the two-story building (Figure 5). Exterior materials and colors are shown in Figure 6. \

Figure 5: South Elevation of the two-story building on the interior of the site (Building C) Landscaping consists of trees, shrubs, and ground cover vegetation. As a condition of project approval, a riparian vegetation plan shall be required, and the plant palette shall be revised to consist of locally native vegetation. Furthermore, the tree spacing around the perimeter of the project site shall not be greater than the mature canopy spread of the selected tree species, and in no case greater than 20 feet.

Easements
Public utility easements (P.U.E.), multi-purpose easements (M.P.E.), access easements, and drainage easements (D.E.) traverse the site as shown on Sheet C2 of the project plans. The purpose of the easements is to provide public utilities, drainage, and access to private property located behind (north) of the project site, and along much of the perimeter of the property.

Easement #3 (in Table 2) straddles a property line that has been moved and is replaced with other easements that serve the same purposes.

The applicant proposes to modify and abandon several of the easements as described and illustrated in Table 2. Staff recommends accepting the applicant’s proposed modifications, except the reduction in the width of easement #4.c, as identified in Table 2. Easement 4.c is a 10-foot drainage and public utility easement along the side property line of a vacant residential property.

The applicant proposes reducing the width of the easement to 5 feet. As a condition of approval, Building G is to be setback 10 feet to allow adequate vegetative screening between the project and the adjacent vacant residential property, to allow compliance with the screening requirements of CMC section 17.176.040(E). Furthermore, this area may be necessary for future drainage purposes as vacant property uphill of the project site is developed. Therefore, staff recommends Easement #4.c remain unchanged.

The owner of adjacent properties to the west and north, Mr. Theodore Back, contacted the City to express concern with the proposed easement changes included in a prior iteration of the project. In Figure 6: Exterior materials and colors
Item 6A
53 7
City of Colfax 143 Whitcomb Ave. (APN 006-072-001) – Design Review
response to the neighbor’s concerns, the applicant agreed to restore the grade on the access easement along the west property line. A steep cross-slope was cut into the access easement by a prior property owner and the applicant has agreed to restore the grade to enable vehicular access over the easement, as shown in Figure 7 and in Site Section 2 on Sheet 4 of 4. Building B was also shifted a few feet farther from the edge of the access easement as a part of this change.

Figure 7: Grade restoration at Access Easement along west Property Line The applicant also agreed to provide a P.U.E. to allow utilities to connect from the lowest portions of Mr. Back’s property located north of the project site to Whitcomb Ave. and thereby allow gravity flow for sanitary sewer service to the main located under Whitcomb Ave. The new P.U.E. is 20 feet wide, except for a small segment between Buildings E and F where it narrows to 10 feet (see Easement #6 in Table 2)

property but generally runs
in a meandering path from
the rear property line to the

However, grading done by
the previous property owner
created a defined drainage
channel along the east
property line and diminished
the feasibility of using the
existing P.U.E along the

setbacks, height, lot coverage, and parking, and an analysis of the project’s compliance with the supplemental standards, design guidelines and design review criteria are provided below in italics.

Supplemental Standards for Self-service Storage Facilities – CMC section 17.176.040 In approving the design review permit for a self-service storage facility, the following criteria may be applied at the discretion of the City Council to protect public health, safety, and welfare and to ensure design compatibility, and are in addition to the general development standards set forth in Articles III and IV of the Zoning Code.

A. Architecture. The facility, including the caretakers/managers residence, the storage units and the office shall be designed using roof and building materials and colors compatible with adjacent developments.

B. Site Design. To minimize visual impact on the adjacent residences, self-service storage facilities shall be designed to:
i. Locate the project entry/exit as far as possible from the residential land use.

The project entry/exit is near the west side property line which is opposite the residentially zoned property abutting the easterly side of the project site.
ii. Locate the caretakers/managers residence and office as close as possible to the project entrance.

A manager’s residence is not provided, and the manager’s office is next to the project entrance.
iii. Setback the outdoor storage of materials a minimum of twenty (20) feet from the property lines adjacent to residential land uses.

No outdoor storage areas are included in the project.
iv. Setback all self-service storage buildings over one story in height a minimum of thirty (30) feet from the property lines adjacent to residential land uses.

Except for the easterly side of Building C, all buildings proposed are onestory. The two-story portion of Building C is approximately 35 feet from the property line adjacent to the residentially zoned site to the east.

Item 6A
64 18
City of Colfax 143 Whitcomb Ave. (APN 006-072-001) – Design Review
C. Security. In addition to the requirements of the building security ordinance, to ensure security when self-service storage facilities are adjacent to residential land uses the police department may require security measures, such as controlled access, alarms or video cameras.

Access to the site is controlled with a security gate and fencing. Furthermore, as a condition of project approval, during the Building permit plan check process, the project will be routed to the County Sheriff for review and any additional reasonable security measures required by the Sheriff’s office will be added.

D. Lighting. To minimize visual impacts to adjacent properties, self-service storage facilities shall provide the following:
i. No off-site glare through the use of cut-off lenses.

As a condition of project approval, the manufacturer’s detailed specifications shall be provided for all outdoor lighting to ensure compliance with this criterion.
ii. Wall-mounted lights shall be located on the building below the roofline of the storage facility and shall be directed downward.

Wall-mounted lights are below the roofline.
iii. Parking lot lighting, in conjunction with vehicle storage, shall not exceed sixteen (16) feet in height, and shall be setback a minimum of fifty (50) feet from the property line adjacent to the residential land use and directed toward the parking lot.

No vehicle storage is included in the project.

E. Screening. To protect the views from adjacent residential land uses, the self-service storage facility shall provide adequate screening which may include:
i. A minimum six-foot high masonry screen wall shall be provided along the property line adjacent to any residential land use. The height of the wall shall be measured from the highest grade (either on site or the adjacent site); and/or
ii. Within the storage facility, a minimum ten-foot wide landscape planter with shrubs (minimum five gallon size) and evergreen trees (minimum fifteen-gallon size placed a minimum twenty (20) feet on center) shall be provided along the property line adjacent to any residential land use.

As a condition of approval, additional landscaping shall be provided around the perimeter of the site consisting of locally native shrubs and evergreen trees consistent with the size and spacing requirements of this standard.

Item 6A
65 19
City of Colfax 143 Whitcomb Ave. (APN 006-072-001) – Design Review
F. Caretakers/Managers Residence. A caretakers/managers residence will only be approved as part of the storage facility where the owner provides assurances to the city that on-site management will acknowledge in writing that the facility is located within a commercial or industrial zone and therefore subject to the levels of noise and night-time lights which are ordinary and expected in those zones.

The project does not include a manager’s residence.

Design Guidelines – CMC Chapter 17.116
A. All new or remodeled structures should reflect the early railroad and/or a mountain/western style of architecture.

The project includes some design elements reminiscent of early railroad architecture with the use of corrugated metal roofing, brick, and red exterior siding.

B. Traditional building materials such as simulated wood shingles, lap siding, board and batten, brick, and indigenous rock should be used.

The project makes extensive use of metal siding oriented both vertically and horizontally with brick accents and metal roofing.

C. Utilize varied materials, textures, or colors to create horizontal and vertical articulation.

Buildings with street frontage are articulated with varied roof forms, windows, metal awnings over windows, vegetation screen grates, and varied exterior finish materials that add architectural interest. Buildings without street frontage have little articulation or architectural interest. As a condition of project approval, all buildings around the perimeter of the project shall be revised to incorporate architectural details like Buildings A, K, J, and H, subject to review and approval by the Planning Director.

D. Commercial/business design characteristics should reflect architectural features common during 1875 to the early 1930s.

Building materials such as the brick accents and metal roofing and the varied roof forms reflect architectural design features common to industrial development of the early 20th century.

E. Utilize established historic design features i.e. cornices, window types and sizes, recessed double doorways, etc.

Gabled accent roof features, with shallow main roofs without eaves are common historic features of industrial buildings.

F. Maintain the existing building/pedestrian scale.

The proposed project enhances the pedestrian experience by adding sidewalks and landscaping along the project’s street frontages. While the use itself does not lend to an Item 6A
66 20
City of Colfax 143 Whitcomb Ave. (APN 006-072-001) – Design Review
interactive pedestrian experience, visual architectural interest is included in the buildings with street-facing facades.

G. Differentiate building facades through the use of color, facade elements, or a change in materials.

Street-facing facades employ a variety of materials, roof forms, and window awnings. As a condition of project approval, similar architectural features will be added to all the buildings around the perimeter of the site.

H. Use appropriate window and awning styles, sizes, and spacing.

Windows and metal awnings are used on the street-facing facades.

I. Height and building mass should be in proportion to the surrounding buildings, trees, and terrain.

Buildings are low-lying with minimal massing.

J. Two stories or stepped hillside/split level construction is preferred, rather than long ware house buildings with no articulation.

Buildings along the street are split to break up the long warehouse effect and articulated with varied roof forms, brick and CMU accents, windows, and window awnings. As a condition of approval, similar treatments shall be added to all the buildings around the perimeter of the site.

K. Avoid a lack of architectural detail, which creates a plain appearance.

Street-facing buildings have adequate architectural detail as described above and as a condition of project approval, architectural detail shall be added to all the buildings around the site’s perimeter.

L. Stucco, concrete slab, and metal exteriors generally detract from the community character and are discouraged.

No stucco is used in the project. The project makes extensive use of metal siding and roofing which is appropriate for the industrial location and its function.

M. Landscaping should enhance the aesthetic appearance of the project. Innovative techniques or uses of alternative plants and planting schemes will be considered; a minimum of five percent of the gross area of the total parcel or lot should be landscaped; a minimum of two percent in conjunction with parking lot landscaping.

As a condition of project approval, additional trees and shrubs shall be planted. Over 10% of the site is available for landscaping and landscaping is included around the front and one side of the parking area.

Item 6A
67 21
City of Colfax 143 Whitcomb Ave. (APN 006-072-001) – Design Review
N. Landscaping should consider conservation of water resources through the efficient use of irrigation, appropriate plant materials (i.e. appropriate plant zones), and regular maintenance of landscaped areas.

As a condition of project approval, locally native landscape material shall be used.

Furthermore, compliance with state law mandates water-efficient landscape plantings.

O. A recommended list of trees, shrubs, and groundcovers is in Appendix 3 of this title. A mix of trees, shrubs, groundcovers, and surfacing materials is preferred, rather than planting the same species throughout the project in public areas.

As a condition of project approval, a variety of locally native plantings shall be installed.

P. Recommended surfacing materials: rocks, gravel, ornamental mulch materials, chips, or any other materials acceptable to the planning director. Not more than thirty (30) percent of the landscape area should be covered by surface materials.

Design Review (CMC section 17.40.070(B)(1)
a. The project as approved allows beneficial use to be made of the site for development, preserves and accentuates the natural features of the property, such as open space, topography, trees, wetlands and water courses, and provides adequate drainage for the project.

The project allows the use of the site for a self-service storage facility, which is a use permitted by right in the Light Industrial zoning district. Currently, there are no trees on the site and the project includes landscaping with trees, shrubs, and ground cover plantings. The existing drainage course on the property will be retained and a condition of approval, riparian vegetation will be planted along the drainage course. Storm water will be treated on-site prior to being discharged into the drainage course.

Environmental Review
The proposed project qualifies for categorical exemption from the provisions of CEQA as it falls within the following exempt classes of projects:

Environmental Review
We have initiated preliminary review of the project per the California Environmental Quality Act (CEQA) and to inform our decision of whether the project qualifies for an exemption from CEQA review, a biological assessment and preliminary cultural resources assessment are required. There appear to be wetland plant species with areas of elevated moisture in the soil on portions of the site near the base of the slope between the upper and lower pads, especially near the front of the site.

Cultural resources have been discovered on several sites in the vicinity and therefore a preliminary cultural assessment is required. after the application is deemed complete, the CEQA review process can proceed in earnest. An early step in the environmental review process is to determine if the project is exempt from CEQA (CEQA Guidelines Section 15061(a).

The project qualifies for the following exemption from CEQA:

Item 6A
69 23
City of Colfax 143 Whitcomb Ave. (APN 006-072-001) – Design Review
• Class 32 – In-fill Development Project exemption (CEQA Guidelines Section 15332) in that:
(a) The project is consistent with the applicable general plan designation and all applicable general plan policies as well as with applicable zoning designation and regulations.

As described in detail in this staff report, the project is consistent with the general plan land use designation, and subject to conditions of approval, it is consistent with the applicable zoning and regulations of the CMC.
(b) The proposed development occurs within city limits on a project site of no more than five acres substantially surrounded by urban uses.

The project is within the city limits of Colfax on a 2.56-acre site surrounded by urban uses.
(c) The project site has no value as habitat for endangered, rare or threatened species.

As documented in the August 2022 Biological Assessment prepared by Greg Matuzak Environmental Consulting, LLC the project site has low potential for special-status wildlife species to occur. Furthermore, the project is subject to standard preconstruction surveys that are broadly applied. (d) Approval of the project would not result in any significant effects relating to traffic, noise, air quality, or water quality.

Self-service storage facilities have very low traffic generation rates, are not a source of noise, and are not known to be a significant source of air pollutants, therefore the project will have no significant effects related to traffic, noise, or air quality. Storm water will be treated prior to being discharged from the site and therefore the project will not have a significant effect on water quality.
(e) The site can be adequately served by all required utilities and public services.

The site has access to all required utilities and public services which can be provided without expansion.

Report Summary
The Biological Resources Assessment Report includes the biological results of the background research, biological resources field surveys, data analysis, and impact assessment for the Project area. The key findings of this report include the following:
• Seasonal drainage within the eastern section of the Project area includes an intermittent stream and riparian vegetation. The stream does not contain suitable habitat for the foothill yellow-legged frog (Rana boylii), a species listed as Endangered under CESA. This species has never been observed within the Project area or adjacent to it given the lack of suitable habitat for the species. • No California Native Plant Society (CNPS) List 1, 2, 3, or 4 species have been documented and mapped within the Project area based on background research and the results of the special-status plant surveys conducted within the entirety of the Project area during the blooming period for each of the specialstatus plant species previously identified within 3 miles of the Project area. • The disturbed central areas within the Project area contain marginal suitable habitat for the coast horned lizard (Phrynosoma blainvillii), a California Species of Concern. The coast horned lizard has not been observed within the Project area; however, a pre-construction survey to avoid impacting the species is recommended.
• No fill or dredge material will be placed in a “waters of the U.S.”, including wetlands, or “waters of the State of California” from the implementation of the proposed Project. Therefore, a Clean Water Act permit and compensatory mitigation for wetland or drainage impacts will not be required. • The central section of the Project area along Whitcomb Avenue contains some wetland associated plants; however, on closer inspection (including two shovel pits to evaluate the presence of hydric soils) indicators of hydric soils and wetland hydrology were not present. Therefore, the small area was not mapped as a jurisdictional federal or state wetland and no permitting is required to fill the area.

1 INTRODUCTION
At the request of SCO Planning & Engineering, Inc. (“SCO”), Mr. Greg Matuzak was retained to prepare a Biological Resources Assessment Report (“Biological Report”) for the Whitcomb Avenue Commercial Project (“Project”) located in the City of Colfax, Placer County, California (see Appendix A). The Biological Report includes an evaluation of sensitive biological resources within the Project area, including sensitive biological resources under the jurisdiction of the California Department of Fish and Wildlife (“CDFW”), United States Fish and Wildlife Service (“USFWS”), United States Army Corps of Engineers (“Corps”), and the City of Colfax Planning Department. Preparation of the Biological Report included background research, field biological resources surveys, and reporting as detailed herein.

Mr. Greg Matuzak, Principal and owner of Greg Matuzak Environmental Consulting LLC is a wetlands ecologist and wildlife biologist with 20 years of experience conducting aquatic resources delineations and biological resources assessments in Northern California. Mr. Matuzak is 40-hour Wetland Delineation Certified (Wetland Training Institute) and has conducted aquatic resources delineations for 100’s of linear miles of projects and 1000s of acres of site development projects. Additionally, Mr. Matuzak has conducted special-status biological resources surveys and developed biological resources assessments for dozens of projects in Nevada and Placer Counties, including within the City of Colfax. Mr. Matuzak was responsible for the field data collection and assessment developed as part of the development of this Biological Report. Mr. Matuzak is on the Nevada County Planning Department’s list of Qualified Biological Resources Consultants and is a Qualified Biologist per the CDFW’s definition.

1.1 Project Location
The proposed Project is located in the City of Colfax and the proposed Project would be located along the northern side of Whitcomb Avenue in the City of Colfax, California (APN 100-230-061). The subject parcel fronts Whitcomb Avenue, which is located along the southern border of the subject parcel. The subject parcel is 2.56 acres in size and is bordered to the west by a vacant parcel and commercial development to the west and south of the subject parcel.

Access to the Project area is located to the west of Interstate Highway 80 (I-80) and Whitcomb Avenue can be accessed off of South Auburn Street, Railroad Street, or Glendale Road. Whitcomb Avenue ends just west of the Project area in a cul-de-sac. See the attached appendices for a Site Plan.

Item 6A
86 Whitcomb Avenue Storage Project Biological Resources Assessment August 2022 1-2

1.2 Project Understanding
The Project involves construction of approximately 318 mini storage units (ranging between 5’x5’ and up to 12’x30’). Additionally, the Project will include a total of six (6) parking spots. The Project would access directly off of Whitcomb Avenue. See attached appendices for a Site Plan identifying the location of the proposed Project components within the subject parcel.

The proposed Project would involve the development of a vacant, vegetated, and partially graded and sloped parcel. The subject parcel hosts non-native vegetation, including annual grassland species and invasive shrub species. An intermittent drainage runs north-south along the eastern border of the subject parcel before entering into an underground, buried pipe that crosses Whitcomb Avenue and daylights again on the southern side of Whitcomb Avenue before continuing south. Due to previous site grading and topography, the western section of the subject parcel is approximately 2,345 feet above mean sea level (MSL) and the eastern section of the subject parcel is approximately 2,335 feet above MSL. The subject parcel is cut in half from north to south with a grade cut of approximately 8 to 10 feet between the western and eastern sections of the subject parcel. Grading would be required on the site and would be equalized so no fill would need to be imported or exported.

1.3 Biological Resources Assessment Purpose
The purpose of the Biological Report is to identify the location and extent of sensitive biological resources within the Project Area, including special-status plant and wildlife species. Additionally, this Biological Report includes an impact assessment to such sensitive biological resources based on the Project Understanding outlined in Section 1.2 above. Section 6 includes avoidance, minimization, and mitigation measures to ensure that the Project Area disturbance, based on the Project Understanding, would not have a significant impact on such sensitive biological resources. This Biological Report also satisfies the City of Colfax Code of Ordinances requirements for the protection of trees (Ordinance Code 12.16), the City of Colfax General Plan related to the protection of sensitive biological resources, and for the development of such biological resource assessments as they pertain to projects undertaken within the City of Colfax and subject to the California Environmental Quality Act (CEQA).

2 REGULATORY OVERVIEW

2.1 Federal Regulations

2.1.1 Section 404 of the Clean Water Act
The U.S. Army Corps of Engineers (“Corps”) and the Environmental Protection Agency (“EPA”) regulate the discharge of dredge or fill material into “waters of the U.S.” under Section 404 of the Clean Water Act. “Waters of the U.S.” include wetlands and lakes, rivers, streams, and their tributaries. Wetlands are defined for regulatory purposes as areas “…inundated or saturated by surface or ground water at a frequency and duration sufficient to support, and that under normal circumstances do support, a prevalence of vegetation typically adapted for life in saturated solid conditions” as specified in 33 Code of Federal Regulations [CFR] 328.3, 40 CFR 230.3.

Generally, wetlands include swamps, marshes, bogs, and similar areas. Lakes, rivers, and streams are defined as “other waters of the U.S.” Jurisdictional limits of these features are typically noted by the Ordinary High Water Mark (“OHWM”). The OHWM is the line on the shore established by the fluctuations of water and indicated by physical characteristics such as mark a clear, natural line impressed on the bank, shelving, changes in the character of soil, destruction of terrestrial vegetation, the presence of litter and debris, or other appropriate means that consider the characteristics of the surrounding areas (33 CFR 328 and 33 CFR 329).

Isolated ponds or seasonal depressions had been previously regulated as waters of the U.S. However, in Solid Waste Agency of Northwestern Cook County (SWANCC) v.

USACE et al. (January 8, 2001), the U.S. Supreme Court ruled that certain “isolated” wetlands (e.g., non- navigable, isolated, and intrastate) do not fall under the jurisdiction of the CWA and are no longer under the jurisdiction of the Corps. Some circuit courts (e.g., U.S. v. Deaton, 2003; U.S. Rapanos, 2003; Northern California River Watch v. City of Healdsburg, 2006), though, have ruled that SWANCC does not prevent CWA jurisdiction if a “significant nexus” such as a hydrologic connection exists, whether it be man-made (e.g., roadside ditch) or natural tributary to navigable waters, or direct seepage from the wetland to the navigable water, a surface or underground hydraulic connection, an ecological connection (e.g., the same bird, mammal, and fish populations are supported by both the wetland and the navigable water), and changes to chemical concentrations in the navigable water is present due to water from the wetland.

Areas considered to be non-jurisdictional waters include non-tidal drainage and irrigation ditches excavated on dry land, artificially-irrigated areas, artificial lakes or ponds used for irrigation or stock watering, small artificial water bodies such as swimming pools, and water-filled depressions with no outlet for drainage (33 CFR, Part 328).

Item 6A
88 Whitcomb Avenue Storage Project Biological Resources Assessment August 2022 2-2
The Clean Water Rule is a 2015 regulation published by the EPA and Corps to clarify water resources management in the United States under a provision of the CWA. The regulation defined the scope of federal water protection in a more consistent manner, particularly over streams and wetlands, which have a significant hydrological and ecological connection to traditional navigable waters, interstate waters, and territorial seas. It is also referred to as the Waters of the United States rule, which defines all bodies of water that fall under U.S. federal jurisdiction. The rule has been contested in litigation and in 2017 the Trump administration announced its intent to review and rescind or revise the rule. Following a Supreme Court ruling on January 22, 2018 that lifted a nationwide stay on the rule, the Trump administration formally suspended the rule until February 6, 2020, thereby giving the EPA time to issue a draft proposal of replacement water regulatory requirements.

On October 22, 2019, the EPA and the Corps published a final rule to repeal the 2015 Clean Water Rule: Definition of “Waters of the United States” (“2015 Rule”), which amended portions of the Code of Federal Regulations (CFR), and to restore the regulatory text that existed prior to the 2015 Rule. The final rule will become effective on December 23, 2019. The EPA and the Corps will implement the pre-2015 Rule regulations informed by applicable agency guidance documents and consistent with Supreme Court decisions and longstanding agency practice.

2.1.2 Section 401 of the Clean Water Act
Section 401 of the CWA requires an applicant, for any federal permit which may result in a discharge into waters of the U.S., to obtain a certification from the state that the discharge will comply with provisions of the CWA. The nine regions of the State Water Quality Control Board administer this program. Any condition of water quality certification would be incorporated into the Corps permit. California has a policy of no-net-loss of wetlands and typically requires mitigation for impacts to wetlands before it will issue a water quality certification. This Project is located under the jurisdiction of Region 5, the Central Valley Regional Water Quality Control Board (“RWQCB”).

2.1.3 Endangered Species Act of 1973
For the Project area, consultation with the USFWS would be necessary if a proposed action may affect a federally listed species or occupied habitat. This consultation would proceed under Section 7 of the Endangered Species Act (ESA) if a federal action is part of the proposed action or through Section 10 of the ESA if no such nexus were available (USFWS, 1973). There is a single federally protected plant species listed under the ESA that has previously been documented within the Colfax USFS Topographic Quadrangle (CDFW 2022), which is the valley elderberry longhorn beetle (Desmocerus californicus dimorphus), an ESA listed species as Threatened. The species is Item 6A
89 Whitcomb Avenue Storage Project Biological Resources Assessment August 2022 2-3
not known to occur within the Project area and has a very low likelihood of occurring within the Project area given the lack of the species host plant, the elderberry shrub (Sambucus cerulea) within the Project area that the species requires.

2.1.4 Bald and Golden Eagle Protection Act
The Bald and Golden Eagle Protection Act (BAGEPA) (16 USC Section 668) protects bald and golden eagles and their nests from direct “take” (i.e. harm or harassment as described above). BAGEPA prohibits the take or commerce of any part of the bald or golden eagles (USFWS, 1940). The USFWS administers the Act and reviews actions that may affect species protected under the Act.

2.2 State Regulations

2.2.1 California Endangered Species Act
The California Department of Fish and Wildlife (CDFW) has jurisdiction over plant and wildlife species listed as threatened or endangered under section 2080 of the CDFW Code. The California Endangered Species Act (CESA) prohibits take of state-listed threatened and endangered species. The state Act differs from the federal Act in that it does not include habitat destruction in its definition of take. The CDFW defines take as “hunt, pursue, catch, capture, or kill, or attempt to hunt, pursue, catch, capture, or kill.” The CDFW may authorize take under the CESA through Section 2081 agreements. If the results of a biological survey indicate that a state-listed species would be affected by the project, the CDFW would issue an Agreement under Section 2081 of the CDFW Code and would establish a Memorandum of Understanding for the protection of state-listed species.

CDFW maintains lists for Candidate-Endangered Species and CandidateThreatened Species. The foothill yellow-legged frog (Rana boylii) is listed as an Endangered species under the State ESA and is discussed in this Biological Report given the species is known to occur within the Colfax USGS Topographic Quadrangle (CDFW 2022). The foothill yellow-legged frog would not occur within the subject parcel given the lack of suitable habitat such as the required shade and rocky substrate that are lacking within the intermittent drainage located along the eastern border of the subject parcel.

2.2.2 Streambed Alteration Agreements: CDFG Code Section 1600 et seq.

CDFW has jurisdictional authority over substantial alterations to the bed or bank of rivers, streams, and lakes under Sections 1600–1616. CDFW has the authority to regulate all work under the jurisdiction of the State of California that would substantially divert, Item 6A
90 Whitcomb Avenue Storage Project Biological Resources Assessment August 2022 2-4
obstruct, or change the natural flow of a river, stream, or lake; substantially change the bed, channel, or bank of a river, stream, or lake; or use material from a streambed.

An apparent intermittent drainage is located within the eastern border of the Project area would most likely be regulated by CDFW. Therefore, a CDFW Streambed Alteration Agreement may be required for encroachment into the bed and bank of the intermittent stream located within the eastern section of the Project area. However, no encroachment into the intermittent stream is proposed as part of the Project.

2.2.3 Porter-Cologne Water Quality Control Act & Section 1601 and Section 1607 of CDFG Code
These acts and codes pertain to projects with potential impacts to water quality or waterways. The Project area does contain an intermittent drainage along the eastern border of the subject parcel, which is a waters of the State as defined by the State Water Resources Board (State Board 2014).

2.2.4 State Water Resources Control Board Wetland Policy (April 2019) On April 2, 2019, the State Water Resources Control Board (State Water Board) adopted rules to protect wetlands and other environmentally sensitive waterways throughout the state. More than 90 percent of California’s historic wetlands have been lost to development and other human activity. Wetlands are a critical natural resource that protect and improve water quality, provide habitat for fish and wildlife, and buffer developed areas from flooding and sea-level rise. The newly adopted rules provide a common, statewide definition of what constitutes a wetland. They also provide consistency in the way the State Water Board and nine regional water boards regulate activities to protect wetlands and other waterways, such as rivers and streams, and bays and estuaries. The State of California waters of the state are, by definition, broader than “waters of the United States” covered by federal regulation. The newly adopted rules do not change that and will ensure that waters of the state will continue to be protected even if protections for federal waters are narrowed by administrative actions or the courts.

The new definition clarifies what is considered a wetland – and what is not – for the entire state, provides a common framework for monitoring and reporting the quality of California’s remaining wetlands, helps ensure no overall net loss, and promote an increase, in the quantity, quality, and sustainability of waters of the state, including wetlands, improves transparency and consistency across the State Water Board and the nine Regional Water Quality Control Boards in how discharges of dredged or fill material in sensitive waterways are monitored and regulated, and avoids duplicative work and streamline requirements to cover all waters of the state, so both state and federal Item 6A
91 Whitcomb Avenue Storage Project Biological Resources Assessment August 2022 2-5
environmental concerns are addressed at once.

2.2.5 California Department of Fish and Game Code Sections 3503, 3503.5, and 3800:

Nesting Migratory Bird and Raptors
Sections 3503, 3503.5, and 3800 of the CDFG Code prohibit the take, possession, or destruction of birds, their nests or eggs. Implementation of the take provisions requires that project-related disturbance within active nesting territories be reduced or eliminated during critical phases of the nesting cycle (approximately March 1 – August 31).

Disturbance that causes nest abandonment and/or loss of reproductive effort (e.g. killing or abandonment of eggs or young), or the loss of habitat upon which birds are dependent, is considered "taking", and is potentially punishable by fines and/or imprisonment (LCC 2013).

2.2.6 California Special Species of Concern, Fully Protected, and Special Status Species California designates Species of Special Concern (SSC) as species of limited distribution, declining populations, diminishing habitat, or unusual scientific, recreational or educational values. These species do not have the same legal protection as listed species but may be added to official lists in the future (CDFW 2014). For example, the coast horned lizard (Phrynosoma blainvillii) is designated as SSC and the species is evaluated as part of this Biological Report since it has been identified within the Colfax USGS Topographic Quadrangle where the proposed Project is located.

In the 1960’s California created a designation to provide additional protection to rare species. This designation remains today and is referred to as “Fully Protected” species, and those listed “may not be taken or possessed at any time” (CDFW 2014).

There are no species designated as a Fully Protected species known to occur within or adjacent to the Project area.

California special status species are identified by the California Natural Diversity Database (CNDDB) and includes those species considered to be of greatest conservation need by the CDFW.

2.2.7 California Environmental Quality Act Guidelines Section 15380 California Environmental Quality Act (CEQA) Guidelines section 15380(b) provides that a species not listed on the federal or state list of protected species may be considered rare or endangered if the species can be shown to meet certain specific criteria. This section was included in the guidelines to deal primarily with situations in which a public agency is reviewing a project that may have a significant effect on, for example a “candidate species” that has not yet been listed by the USFWS or CDFW. CEQA, Item 6A
92 Whitcomb Avenue Storage Project Biological Resources Assessment August 2022 2-6
therefore, enables an agency to protect a species from significant project impacts until the respective government agencies have had an opportunity to list the species as protected, if warranted (CNRA 2012).

Plants appearing on the California Native Plant Society (CNPS) California Rare Plant Rank (CRPR) are considered to meet CEQA’s Section 15380 criteria. Ranks include:
1A) plants presumed extirpated in California and either rare or extinct elsewhere, 1B) plant rare, threatened, or endangered in California and elsewhere, 2A) plants presumed extirpated in California, but more common elsewhere, and 2B) plants rare, threatened, or endangered in California, but more common elsewhere. Impacts to these species would therefore be considered “significant” requiring mitigation.

2.2.8 State Oak Woodland Regulations
State laws that regulate protection of oak woodlands include Professional Forester’s Law (PFL) and CEQA according to Public Resources Code Section 21083.4. Oak woodlands are defined as areas having 10% oak canopy cover or greater. “Oaks” are defined in Public Resources Code Section 21083.4 as a native tree species in the genus Quercus, that is 5 inches diameter at breast height (DBH) or greater. The Oak Woodlands Conservation Act (SB 1334) provides funding for the conservation and protection of oak woodlands in California. Oak trees and oak woodland habitats are protected under both the State and the Nevada County landmark groves and landmark oak tree regulations as discussed below.

2.3 Local Regulations

2.3.1 City of Colfax Tree Removal Regulations (Code of Ordinances 12.16) Article II - Tree Preservation Guidelines

12.16.080 - Purpose and intent.

The purpose of establishing tree preservation guidelines is to maintain natural scenic beauty, improve air quality, water quality, reduce soil erosion, preserve significant natural heritage values, preserve wildlife habitat and help to reduce energy consumption for air cooling by providing shade. As development of vacant land occurs, loss of some tree cover may be unavoidable. The city's intent is to reduce the loss of tree to reasonably acceptable levels while encouraging cooperation between the development community, citizens and the city in attempting to retain tree cover within the city to the maximum extent possible. In the spirit of reasonableness these guidelines shall not categorically prohibit tree removal. It is Item 6A
93 Whitcomb Avenue Storage Project Biological Resources Assessment August 2022 2-7
recognized that development of foothill topography and project-specific terrain may dictate tree removal. It shall be the policy of the city to preserve trees whenever feasible through the review of all proposed development activities where trees are present, while recognizing individual rights to develop property in a reasonable manner. (Ord. 472 § 1, 2000)

12.16.090 - Authority.

The city has an established planning application review process. The planning commission shall oversee enforcement of the tree preservation guidelines through project conditions of approval in conjunction with granting planning application approval. In the event planning commission approval is not required of the application the city manager or his or her designee shall oversee enforcement of the tree preservation guidelines. (Ord. 472 § 2, 2000)

12.16.100 – Tree identification.

Planning applications submitted to the city shall identify all trees on the property in excess of six inches in diameter, measured four and one-half feet from ground level.

Trees to be saved and removed shall be clearly designated on the plan. Clearing of trees over six inches in diameter measured four and one-half feet from the ground is prohibited prior to issuance of a grading permit. (Ord. 472 § 3, 2000)

12.16.110 – Tree preservation requirements.

Innovative techniques or alternative project design shall be considered to preserve trees to the maximum extent feasible to retain conifers, oaks, maples and cedars. Preserving trees shall require installing bright colored mesh fencing, flagged stakes or some visible means of physical demarcation around the drip line of the tree(s) in the field prior to issuance of a grading permit. The drip line of a tree is the outermost edge of a tree’s canopy. No movement of soil or earth material shall take place within the drip line of trees designated for preservation. (Ord. 472 § 4, 2000)

12.16.120 – Tree replacement requirements.

Trees enhance the aesthetic appearance of any project. When tree removal is unavoidable:

A. The applicant/developer shall replace and replant removed trees with an equal number of trees.

B. Minimum/maximum replacement trees shall range from one gallon to forty-eight (48) inch box container sizes mixed to create a natural horizon line.

Item 6A
94 Whitcomb Avenue Storage Project Biological Resources Assessment August 2022 2-8
C. A mix of tree species is preferred (rather than planting the same species throughout the project) to achieve a more natural, native appearance.

D. Hillside development shall preserve trees when feasible or be replanted immediately to prevent erosion. "Immediate" means prior to the issuance of a certificate of occupancy or final inspection.

E. Trees shall be irrigated and maintained by any and all subsequent owners for a minimum period of five years after installation in accordance with the Colfax design guidelines maintenance requirements:

1. Deposit with the city a maintenance bond, cash, letter of credit or its equivalent, in an amount equal to one-half the market value of landscaping and irrigation guaranteeing the proper care, treatment and maintenance of landscaping for a period of three years; or

2. Execute an agreement and equitable lien in an amount equal to the full market value of the landscaping and irrigation with the city, guaranteeing the lien shall cause a written letter of notification by the city to the owner of the real property within ten (10) days that the city will perform or have performed by a reputable landscaper any and all maintenance work it deems necessary and bring legal action against the owner for the frill cost of such maintenance work or foreclose such equitable lien as provided by law.

3 METHODOLOGY
In order to evaluate the Project area for the presence of any sensitive biological resources, baseline information from databases and reporting for similar projects in the City of Colfax and Placer County was collected and reviewed prior to conducting reconnaissance-level field biological surveys. The database searches, background research, and habitat level field surveys characterized the baseline conditions of the Project area. Based on the baseline conditions of the Project area, an assessment was implemented to determine if any special-status plant or wildlife species use the Project area at any time during their life cycle. The baseline conditions also identified the presence of any sensitive habitat or communities, including “waters of the U.S.,” including wetlands, that have been identified and mapped within the Project area.

3.1 Sensitive Biological Resources Background Review
The following information was used to identify potential sensitive biological resources, including the presence of special-status plant and wildlife species, within the Project area region that could be found to use the Project area:
• California Department of Fish and Wildlife’s California Natural Diversity Database records search of the Colfax USGS Topographic Quadrangle where the Project area is located (CDFW, 2022);
• The California Native Plant Society’s online Inventory of Rare and Endangered Plants of California for the Project area and Placer County (CNPS, 2022); • The U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service Information, Planning, and Consultation System (IPaC) for endangered, threatened, and proposed listed species for the Project area (USFWS, 2022);
• National Wetland Inventory map of the Project area (NWI, 2022); • United States Department of Agriculture (USDA) Soils Mapper of the Project area (USDA, 2022);
• Natural Resources Conservation Service (NRCS) Hydric Soils List for Placer County (NRCS, 2022); and
• City of Colfax Municipal Code, Ordinances, and General Plan.

3.2 Reconnaissance Level Biological Resources Field Surveys Reconnaissance-level biological resources field surveys were conducted on foot for the entirety of the Project area (2.56 acres) by Greg Matuzak, Principal Biologist and owner of Greg Matuzak Environmental Consulting LLC. An initial field meeting with the owner of the subject parcel and the Project applicant was conducted on July 9th, 2022.

Item 6A
96 Whitcomb Avenue Storage Project Biological Resources Assessment August 2022 3-2
Habitat level and biological resources surveys were not conducted on July 9th, 2022.

However, a reconnaissance-level biological resources survey was conducted by Mr.

Matuzak of the entirety of the subject parcel on August 6th, 2022. The purpose of the surveys completed in August 2022 was to identify habitat and vegetation types and to determine the potential for any special-status plant and wildlife species identified in the desktop analysis and background research to occur within the Project area. Additionally, the presence of an intermittent drainage and associated riparian habitat was evaluated as part of the site survey in August 2022.

Further evaluation of the Project area conducted on August 6th, 2022 included a focal evaluation of an area along the toe of slope of the graded slope that divides the western and eastern sections of the Project area. The focal survey conducted along the toe of slope was to determine the presence of hydrophytic vegetation and indicators of hydric soils and wetland hydrology, if they were present. Some wetland associated plants, including rushes (Juncus sp.) and sedges (Carex sp.), were identified within a small, narrow area within the toe of slope of the graded slope and continued to the curb associated with the subject parcel at Whitcomb Avenue. Upon closer evaluation, the toe of slope and area along the frontage with Whitcomb Avenue do not contain indicators of hydric soils or wetland hydrology and therefore, would not be mapped as wetlands regulated by state or federal agencies/regulators.

3.3 Project Area Characterization
The Project area has been disturbed by historic cut and fill practices, public access, and ongoing management for many years which is the baseline condition for the Project area. Within the Project area, the dumping of soils, landscape materials, and other miscellaneous items has also occurred for many years and the current circumstances are the baseline conditions. Areas not subject to this regular type of previous disturbance are dominated by mostly native habitat and, therefore, are also the baseline condition within and mostly adjacent to the Project area.

All vascular plant species identified at the time of the surveys were recorded using keys and descriptions in The Jepson Manual (Baldwin et al., 2012). Additionally, vegetation types have been classified by wildlife habitats/vegetation types using the California Department of Fish and Game’s (CDFG) A Guide to Wildlife Habitats (Mayer and Laudenslayer, 1988). A list of plant and wildlife species identified within the Project area as part of the development of this Biological Report is located in the attached appendices.

4 ENVIRONMENTAL SETTING

4.1 Environmental Setting
The Project area is located in Placer County, CA in the northern-central Sierra Nevada foothills. The Sierra Nevada foothills lie between the western edge of the Sierra Nevada and the eastern border of the Central Valley. The foothills form a belt 10 to 30 miles wide that ranges from 500 to 5,000 feet in elevation in a series of northwest to northnorthwest aligned ridges that decline in elevation from northeast to southwest. Many rapidly flowing rivers and streams run westerly in deeply incised canyons with bedrock channels to the Central Valley and eventually to the Pacific Ocean. Alluvial fans, floodplains, and terraces are not extensive; and all but the largest streams are generally dry during the summer. Dominant vegetation communities include non-native annual grasslands and riparian vegetation associated with the intermittent drainage along the eastern parcel boundary.

Vegetation communities within the Project area are typical of the lower Sierra Nevada foothills. However, the terrain within the central section of the Project area is not typical of the lower Sierra Nevada foothills that normally vary between flat ridges and valleys to gently and moderately sloping hillsides given the high level of disturbance within the central section of the Project area where cut and fill, and potentially grading impacts have occurred historically. The Project area elevation ranges from approximately 2,350 to 2,335 feet above mean sea level (MSL). The general topography slopes north to south and west to east within the subject parcel.

Natural hydrological sources for the Project area include precipitation and surface run-off from adjacent lands. Mean annual rainfall in the area is 47.06 inches (NRCS, 2022).

There were no documented rain events over the previous month prior to the field surveys and as such, no surface water was documented within the intermittent drainage. The intermittent drainage runs along the eastern parcel boundary from north to south within the eastern section of the Project area. The intermittent drainage is not shown as a blue line feature or stream on any USGS or NWI maps that include the Project area. However, there is a line feature within the NWI mapping of the Project area that may represent a previous/historical drainage cutting north to south within the central portion of the subject parcel or it may represent an offset from the existing intermittent drainage along the eastern parcel boundary and may not accurately reflect the geographic position of the drainage within the subject parcel.

4.2 Project Area Soil Types
The USDA Soil Survey Mapper (USDA, 2022) identifies two soil types within the Project area. USDA soil mapping for the Project area is included in Appendix C and indicates that Item 6A
98 Whitcomb Avenue Storage Project Biological Resources Assessment August 2022 4-2
the Project area contains the following soil types: Josephine loam, 2 to 9 percent slopes and Josephine loam, 9 to 15 percent slopes. These soil types are described in detail below and are shown in Appendix C and neither of these soils types are listed under the NRDC List of Hydric Soils for western Placer County where the Project is located:
• Josephine Loam, 2 to 9 percent slopes (157). The Josephine series consists of deep, well drained soils that formed in colluvium and residuum weathered from altered sedimentary and extrusive igneous rocks. Josephine soils are on broad ridgetops, toeslopes, footslopes, and side slopes of mountains. Slopes are 2 to 75 percent.

The mean annual precipitation is about 45 inches and the mean annual temperature is about 50 degrees F.
• Josephine Loam, 9 to 15 percent slopes (158). mountains. Slopes are 2 to 75 percent. The mean annual precipitation is about 45 inches and the mean annual temperature is about 50 degrees F.

4.3 Project Area Vegetation Communities
Vegetation community types within the Project area are described below.

Disturbed
The Project area is considered a disturbed habitat type. The Project area contains a mix of fill material, asphalt, and gravel that have created a mix of non-native ruderal grassland vegetation and areas of barren ground. The disturbed area encroaches towards the eastern edge of the subject parcel. The riparian within the intermittent drainage is all invasive and non-native species and the vegetation ends at the top of the bank where a dense area dominated mostly by invasive Himalayan blackberry shrubs (Rubus armenicus) is located at the top of the drainage’s bank. Himalayan blackberry and scotch broom (Cytisus scoparius) dominate the central cut and sloped area that runs north to south within the central portion of the subject parcel. There is additional scotch broom located along the frontage with Whitcomb Avenue and to the west and north of the Project area along the borders of the subject parcel. Common to the environmental setting of this habitat type are yellow star thistle (Centaurea solstitalis), garden burnett (Poterium sanguisorba), soft chess (Bromus hordeaceous), bisnaga (Ammi visnaga), and patches of Himalayan blackberry occur within the entirety of the subject parcel.

Wetland Associated Plants
Further evaluation of the Project area conducted on August 6th, 2022 included a focal evaluation of an area along the toe of slope of the graded slope that divides the western and eastern sections of the Project area and runs north to south within the subject parcel. The focal survey conducted along the toe of slope was to determine the Item 6A
99 Whitcomb Avenue Storage Project Biological Resources Assessment August 2022 4-3
presence of hydrophytic vegetation and indicators of hydric soils and wetland hydrology, if they were present. Based on the initial site visit in July 2022, some wetland associated plants were identified along the toe of slope of the graded slope and runs all the way to Whitcomb Avenue where the vegetation spreads out a little wider due to the curb along Whitcomb Avenue being a barrier to any water flowing further south.

Some wetland associated plants, including rushes (Juncus sp.) and sedges (Carex sp.), were identified within a small, narrow area within the toe of slope of the graded slope and continued to the curb associated with the subject parcel at Whitcomb Avenue. Upon closer evaluation, the toe of slope and area along the frontage with Whitcomb Avenue do not contain indicators of hydric soils or wetland hydrology and therefore, would not be mapped as wetlands regulated by state or federal agencies/regulators. Two (2) shovel pits were taken, one in the central location of the subject parcel at the toe of slope of the cut slope, and the other at the southern end near Whitcomb Avenue where the vegetation becomes wider. The soils were identified as the following per the Munsell Soil Color Chart:
• 7.5YR 3/2 within the central section of the subject parcel at the toe of slope with no indicators of wetland hydrology present except for the drainage pattern artificially created by the cut slope. This soil color is not indicative of a hydric soil and indicators of wetland hydrology are not present at this location, which is representative of the toe of slope from approximately 50 feet north of Whitcomb Avenue to the northern end of the cut slope. • 5YR 3/2 within the southern section of the subject parcel at the toe of slope where the area widens. This soil pit also showed no indicators of wetland hydrology present except for the drainage pattern artificially created by the cut slope and the curb along the frontage with Whitcomb Avenue that cuts off drainage within the subject parcel. This soil color is not indicative of a hydric soil and indicators of wetland hydrology are not present at this location, which is representative of the toe of slope from the southern edge of the subject parcel where the curb is located along Whitcomb Avenue to approximately 50 feet north along the cut slope.

The USDA Soil Survey shows the entirety of the subject parcel to be mapped as the Josephine Soil Series being mapped as Josephine loam, 9 to 15 percent slopes. The Josephine Soil Series is not identified within the NRCS Hydric Soils List for western Placer County where the subject parcel is located (see attached appendices for a USDA soils map of the subject parcel and the NRCS Hydric Soils List). Given the soil series is not included in the NRCS Hydric Soils List covering the subject parcel and given the clear lack of indicators for hydric soils and wetland hydrology to be present within the area surveyed, the toe of slope along the eastern edge of the cut slope does not represent Item 6A
100
Whitcomb Avenue Storage Project Biological Resources Assessment August 2022 4-4
the required parameters to meet the definition of a wetland and regulated under the Clean Water Act. Therefore, this area within the subject parcel was not mapped as a regulated wetland and this area can be filled without notification to state and federal agencies given the lack of required wetland characteristics to be mapped as a regulated wetland.

5 RESULTS
Special-status species were considered for the Project area based on a current review of the CNDDB and database information provided by the United States Fish and Wildlife Service and California Native Plant Society as well as the reconnaissance-level biological resources surveys.

5.1 Special-Status Plant Species
Based on the results of the database searches, two (2) special-status plant species were identified as previously occurring within 3 miles of the Project area. Several other additional special-status plant species have been previously documented within the Colfax USGS Topographic Quadrangle that are not mapped within 3 miles of the Project area. A description of the special-status plant species previously known to occur within 3 miles of the Project area (CNDDB, 2022) are discussed below as well as a list of additional species previously identified within the Colfax USGS Topographic Quadrangle (see below and attached in the appendices). No special-status plant species were identified within the Project area during reconnaissance-level surveys and given the disturbed nature of the site and lack of suitable habitat for such species, special-status plant species have a very low potential to occur within the Project area. In addition, no USFWS Designated Critical Habitat (DCH) has been mapped by USFWS for any federally listed species within the vicinity of the Project area.

The following are the previously identified special-status plant species identified in the CNDDB within 3 miles of the Project area:

Scadden Flat checkerbloom (Sidalcea stipularis) – Federally and CA State Endangered and California Native Plant Society List 1B.1
Scadden Flat checkerbloom inhabits marshes and swamps between July and August. It is found in wet montane marshes fed by springs, normally between 2,295 and 2,395 feet above MSL. The species has been documented within 3 miles to the north of the Project area. Suitable habitat for this species does not occur within the Project area.

Additionally, this species was not documented during the August 2022 surveys that included the Project area. Therefore, the potential for this species to occur within the Project area is considered nil to very low.

Brandegee’s Clarkia (Clarkia biloba ssp. brandegeeae) – California Native Plant Society List 4.2
Brandegee’s clarkia inhabits chaparral, cismontane woodland, and lower montane coniferous/mixed conifer forest habitats. It is most often found in road cuts between 75 and 915 meters above MSL. The species has been documented in several Item 6A
102
Whitcomb Avenue Storage Project Biological Resources Assessment August 2022 5-2
locations within 3 miles of the Project area. During field surveys this species was not identified within the Project area and suitable habitat for this species is considered to be lacking within the Project area for this species. Given that this species is most likely found on or near road cuts on north facing slopes, the likelihood of this species occurring within the Project area is considered very low given the Project area does not include any road cuts on north facing slopes.

The following are the previously identified special-status plant species identified within Colfax Quad and not mapped within the CNDDB within 3 miles of the Project area:

Sierra blue grass (Poa sierra) – California Native Plant Society List 1B.3 Sierra blue grass is found in openings in lower montane coniferous forest, between 1,195 and 4,920 feet above MSL and blooms between April and July. There is no suitable habitat for this species in the Project area given the lack of montane hardwood-conifer forests within the Project area. The species has not been documented within 3 miles of the Project area (CNDDB 2022) and the species was not observed during the August 2022 field surveys. Therefore, the potential for the species to occur within the Project area is considered very low to nil given the lack of suitable habitat for this species within the Project area.

Red Hills soaproot (Chlorogalum grandiflorum) – California Native Plant Society List 1B.2 Red Hills soaproot is found in chaparral, cismontane woodland, lower montane coniferous forests on serpentinite and gabbroic substrates, between 800 and 5,545 feet above MSL and blooms between May and June. The species has not been documented previously within 3 miles of the Project area (CNDDB 2022). The species was not observed during the August 2022 field surveys. Potential for occurrence of this species is considered very low and not expected to occur within the Project area given the lack of mixed chaparral vegetation in gabbroic soils within the Project area.

Additional special-status plant species with no potential to occur within the Project area that have been previously documented within the Colfax Quadrangle, but have not previously been mapped within the CNDDB within 3 miles of the Project area:
• Humboldt lily (CNPS List 4.2)
• Congdon’s onion (CNPS List 4.3)
• Sanborn’s onion (CNPS List 4.2)
• Serpentine bluecup (CNPS List 4.3)
• Giant checkerbloom (CNPS List 4.3)
• Streambank spring beauty (CNPS List 4.2)
• Tripod buckwheat (CNPS List 4.2)

5.2 Special-Status Wildlife Species
Based on the results of the database searches, three (3) special-status wildlife species were identified as previously occurring within 3 miles of the Project area.

Additionally, several other special-status wildlife species have been previously identified within the Colfax USGS Topographic Quadrangle and are listed below and in the attached appendices. A description of the special-status wildlife species previously identified within 3 miles of the Project area (CNDDB, 2022) are discussed below with a list of the other special-status species also documented within the Colfax USGS Topographic Quadrangle. No special-status wildlife species were identified within the Project area during reconnaissance-level surveys and given the disturbed nature of the site and lack of suitable habitat for such species, special-status wildlife species have a very low potential to occur within the Project area. In addition, no USFWS Designated Critical Habitat (DCH) has been mapped by USFWS for any federally listed species within the vicinity of the Project area.

The following are the previously identified special-status wildlife species identified in the CNDDB within 3 miles of the Project area:

Coast horned lizard (Phrynosoma blainvillii) – CA State Species of Concern The coast horned lizard occurs in open sandy areas, scattered low bushes, chaparral, manzanita, and oak woodland habitats. It is found in the Sierra Nevada foothills from Butte County to Kern County and throughout the central and southern California coast. Coast horned lizards forage on the ground in open areas, usually between shrubs and often near ant nests. The species relies on camouflage for protections. Predators and extreme heat are avoided by burrowing into loose soil.

Periods of inactivity and winter hibernation are spent burrowed in the soil under surface objects such as logs or rocks, in mammal burrows, or in crevices (Zeiner et al., 2000). They inhabit mostly open country, especially sandy areas, washes, flood plains and windblown deposits in a wide variety of habitats and can be found at elevations up to 8,000 feet (2,438 meters) (CaliforniaHerps, 2014).

This species has been documented within 3 miles of the Project area. There is marginal suitable habitat within the open disturbed areas within the Project area. As the central portion of the Project area contains the required open areas of exposed, sandy soils for this species, this species would be considered to have at least a very low potential to occur within the Project area. However, given the disturbed and developed nature of the Project area and surrounding parcels and given that no coast horned lizards were observed during the August 2022 reconnaissance-level biological surveys conducted within the Project area, it is very unlikely that this species would occur within the Project area.

Item 6A

Whitcomb Avenue Storage Project Biological Resources Assessment August 2022 5-4
Foothill yellow-legged frog (Rana boylii) – Candidate as Threatened under CESA Foothill yellow-legged frogs inhabit partly shaded, shallow streams and riffles with a rocky substrate in a variety of habitats. The species requires at least some cobble-sized substrate for egg laying. The species requires at least 15 weeks to attain metamorphosis.

These frogs are ectothermic, so ambient temperature affects the likelihood of detection of this species. Whether the life form is larval or subadult, both stages will shelter in place under substrate and emerge and become active with warmth (i.e., detection probability increases with temperature).

This species has been identified in several locations within 3 miles of the Project area. However, the species was not identified during reconnaissance-level biological surveys conducted within the Project area. Additionally, given the lack of a perennial stream with rocky substrate within the Project area, this species is considered absent from the Project area.

Obscure bumble bee (Bombus caliginosus) – CDFW S1
Obscure bumble bee was last documented within the vicinity of the City of Colfax in 1949, over half a century ago. It is only known from a collection of five individuals on June 1st of that year. Given the species has only been documented a single time within 3 miles of the Project area in 1949, there is an extremely low potential of the species occurring within the Project area.

Additional special-status wildlife species with no potential to occur within the Project area that have been previously documented within the Colfax Quadrangle, but have not previously been mapped within the CNDDB within 3 miles of the Project area:
• Fisher (State Species of Special Concern)
• Valley elderberry longhorn beetle (Federally threatened) • Western pond turtle (State Species of Special Concern) • Loggerhead shrike (State Species of Special Concern)
• Western pearshell (None)
• Western bumble bee (None)
Nesting raptors and other migratory bird species - Protected under CA State DFG Code Sections 3503, 3503.5, and 3800
There is a low potential for nesting raptors and other nesting migratory bird species to occur within and directly adjacent to the Project area. The Project area contains suitable nesting habitat for bird species, such as tree nesting species (in trees directly Item 6A
105
Whitcomb Avenue Storage Project Biological Resources Assessment August 2022 5-5
adjacent to the subject parcel) and ground nesting species like the spotted towhee (Pipilo maculatus) and dark-eyed junco (Junco hyemalis). Additional species that are known to nest in shrub and tree habitat have the potential to nest within the Project area though the likelihood is considered low given the level of disturbance within and adjacent to the Project area. The nesting season for raptors and other protected nesting birds within the Project area occurs between March 1st and August 31st.

6 CONCLUSIONS AND RECOMMENDATIONS:

These conclusions and recommendations are based on the findings of this Biological Report and the impact assessment based on the Project Understanding outlined in Section 1.2 above. The impact assessment and recommendations below are based on the proposed Project components that would require disturbance within the Project area. These project components area included in the Site Plan attached in Appendix B and are outlined in Section 1 above. A total of 318 storage units are planned within an area of approximately 56,640 square feet within the subject parcel.

Additionally, six (6) individual parking spaces are proposed. A new access drive into the Project area off of Whitcomb Avenue is also proposed. There will be a minimum buffer from the eastern parcel boundary where the intermittent drainage is located and therefore, the proposed Project would be set off of the drainage and outside of any riparian vegetation associated with the intermittent drainage.

For sensitive biological resources that have the potential to be impacted by such disturbance, avoidance, minimization, and mitigation measures are proposed to ensure that such disturbance does not cause a significant impact on any sensitive biological resources within the Project area.

Proposed Avoidance, Minimization, and Mitigation Measures

6.1 Potential Impacts to Special-Status Plant Species
Special-status plantsurveys were conducted within the Project area during August 2022, which coincides with the blooming period of several of the specialstatus plant species that have been previously identified within 3 miles of the Project area and within the Colfax USGS Topographic Quadrangle. No specialstatus plants were documented within the Project area during the site visits and surveys conducted as part of the development of this Biological Report.

Therefore, there is a very low likelihood that the Project area would contain a protected special-status plant species listed by CNPS and per CEQA requirements based on the results of the August 2022 surveys of the Project area.

Disturbance related impacts to CNPS list 3 and list 4 species would not be considered a “significant” impact requiring additional mitigation under CEQA Guidelines Section 15380. Therefore, the proposed Project would have a less than significant impact on special-status plant species, if present during such disturbance given the CNPS 1B.1, 1B.2, and 1B.3 species previously documented within 3 miles of the Project area and within the Colfax USGS Topographic Quadrangle have a very low likelihood to occur within the Project area and would not be impacted by the proposed Project.

6.2 Potential Impacts to Special-Status Wildlife Species The coast horned lizard is the terrestrial special-status wildlife species with at least some potential to occur within the Project area, even though the species has not been observed within the Project area. Therefore, this species is in addition to potential nesting raptors that have some potential to occur within the Project area as discussed in detail below.

Coast horned lizard
Occurrence: There is potential suitable habitat within the open disturbed and disturbed sections of the Project area. In addition, the Project area includes the required open areas of exposed, sandy soils for this species within those habitat types. Therefore, this species has a low potential to occur within the Project area.

Mitigation: Prior to disturbance within the areas of the Project area that contain suitable habitat for the species, a pre-construction survey for the species shall be conducted prior to any disturbance within those disturbed and developed areas of the Project area in order to avoid direct impacts to the species. If the species is documented during preconstruction surveys, a qualified wildlife biologist would have the authority to move individual coast horned lizards outside of the proposed disturbance area(s) in order to avoid an impact to this species. Once the coast horned lizard(s) have been removed from the disturbance area(s) and out of harms way, the proposed work would no longer pose a risk to individuals of the species.

Therefore, the proposed Project would have a less than significant impact on the coast horned lizard with the implementation of the mitigation measures outlined above.

6.3 Potential Impacts to Nesting Raptors and other Protected Bird Species
Given the Project area is located adjacent to many larger trees and the Project area is dominated by non-native annual grassland and shrub species that may contain suitable habitat for nesting raptors and other protected bird species, removal of such trees and shrubs should be done outside the breeding season, if possible, to avoid potential impacts to such protected nesting bird species. The breeding season for raptors and MBTA protected bird species in the vicinity of the Project area is generally from March 1 to August 31. Vegetation clearing or tree removal outside of the breeding season for such bird species would not require the implementation of any avoidance, minimization, or mitigation measures. However, construction or development activities during the breeding season could disturb or remove occupied nests of raptors and would require the implementation of a pre-construction survey within 250 feet of the any Item 6A
108
Whitcomb Avenue Storage Project Biological Resources Assessment August 2022 6-3
disturbance area within the Project area for nesting raptors and other protected bird species within 14 days prior to disturbance.

Avoidance: Vegetation clearing or tree removal outside of the breeding season for such bird species and/or avoidance of such potential nesting habitat would not require the implementation of any avoidance, minimization, or mitigation measures.

Mitigation: Construction or disturbance activities during the breeding season could disturb or remove occupied nests of raptors and/or protected bird species and would require the implementation of a pre-construction survey within and adjacent to any proposed disturbance area within the Project area for nesting raptors and other protected bird species within 14 days prior to disturbance. The nesting survey radius around the proposed disturbance would be identified prior to the implementation of the protected bird nesting surveys by a CDFW qualified biologist and would be based on the habitat type, habitat quality, and type of disturbance proposed within or adjacent to nesting habitat.

If any nesting raptors or protected birds are identified during such pre-construction surveys, trees or shrubs or grasslands with active nests should be not be removed or disturbed and a no-disturbance buffer should be established around the nesting site to avoid disturbance or destruction of the nest site until after the breeding season or after a qualified wildlife biologist determines that the young have fledged. The extent of these buffers would be determined by a CDFW qualified wildlife biologist and would depend on the special-status species present, the level of noise or construction disturbance, line of sight between the nest and the disturbance, ambient levels of noise and other disturbances, and other topographical or artificial barriers. These factors should be analyzed by a qualified wildlife biologist to make an appropriate decision on buffer distances based on the species and level of disturbance proposed in the vicinity of an active nest.

Therefore, the proposed Project would have a less than significant impact on nesting raptors and other protected bird species with the implementation of the mitigation measures outlined above.

6.4 Potential Impacts to Clean Water Act Regulated “Waters of the U.S.,” Including Wetlands
A single intermittent drainage is the only wetland or stream feature identified within the Project area and it is assumed to fall under Corps jurisdiction pursuant to Section 404 of the CWA. The RWQCB pursuant to Section 401 of the CWA also has jurisdiction over areas subject to regulation by the Corps under Section 404 of the CWA. As detailed in the CWA, any proposed action that would place fill or dredge material within areas identified as Corps jurisdictional wetlands or waters would require a Department of the Item 6A
109
Whitcomb Avenue Storage Project Biological Resources Assessment August 2022 6-4
Army Section 404 permit and a RWQCB Section 401 Water Quality Certification, or waiver thereof, prior to the placement of fill or dredge material within such features. Fill or dredge impacts to any features regulated under Sections 404 and 401 of the CWA would be required to be mitigated at a minimum of a 1:1 ratio. Compensatory mitigation would be included as a Section 404 and Section 401 permit condition to be implemented prior to the placement of such dredge and fill material within a “waters of the U.S.,” including wetlands, and would ensure the no net loss of such features within the Project area.

Given that no fill or dredge material is proposed to be placed within the intermittent drainage as part of the proposed Project, the proposed Project would have a less than significant impact on CWA regulated “waters of the U.S.” including wetlands.

6.5 Potential Impacts to Stream and Riparian Zones Under CDFW Jurisdiction
Any substantial alteration to the intermittent drainage within the Project area would likely fall under CDFW jurisdiction as the drainage contains a bed and bank and riparian vegetation along its banks. Any proposed alteration of any stream would most likely require a Streambed Alteration Agreement from the CDFW pursuant to Section 1600 et. seq. of the California Fish and Wildlife Code prior to construction, including any disturbance within the intermittent drainage within the Project area.

Given that there will be a minimum proposed 20-foot setback from the eastern parcel boundary where the intermittent drainage flows north to south, no impacts to the bed and bank of the intermittent drainage will occur, nor will any impact to associated riparian vegetation within the intermitted drainage occur. Therefore, the proposed Project would have a less than significant impact on CDFW regulated streams and any associated riparian habitat. A Streambed Alteration Agreement with CDFW for such impacts would not be required as the Project is presently proposed.

6.6 City of Colfax Tree Removal Regulations (Code of Ordinances 12.16) The Project applicant will comply with the City of Colfax tree removal regulations (Code of Ordinances 12.16). Trees that will be preserved within the Project area that are located directly adjacent to proposed disturbance shall require the installation of bright colored mesh fencing, flagged stakes or some visible means of physical demarcation around the drip line of the tree(s) in the field prior to issuance of a grading permit. No movement of soil or earth material shall take place within the drip line of trees designated for preservation.

Item 6A
110
Whitcomb Avenue Storage Project Biological Resources Assessment August 2022 6-5
Trees that will be removed within the subject parcel will comply with the City’s ordinance by implementing the following to mitigate for trees to be removed:

A. The applicant/developer shall replace and replant removed trees with an equal number of trees.

B. Minimum/maximum replacement trees shall range from one gallon to forty-eight (48) inch box container sizes mixed to create a natural horizon line.

C. A mix of tree species is preferred (rather than planting the same species throughout the project) to achieve a more natural, native appearance.

D. Hillside development shall preserve trees when feasible or be replanted immediately to prevent erosion. "Immediate" means prior to the issuance of a certificate of occupancy or final inspection.

The proposed Project would have a less than significant impact on trees within the subject parcel with the implementation of the mitigation measures outlined above, if any trees are to be removed within the subject parcel.

Web Soil Survey URL:

Coordinate System: Web Mercator (EPSG:3857)
Maps from the Web Soil Survey are based on the Web Mercator projection, which preserves direction and shape but distorts distance and area. A projection that preserves area, such as the Albers equal-area conic projection, should be used if more accurate calculations of distance or area are required.

This product is generated from the USDA-NRCS certified data as of the version date(s) listed below.

Soil Survey Area: Placer County, California, Western Part Survey Area Data: Version 13, Sep 3, 2021
Soil map units are labeled (as space allows) for map scales 1:50,000 or larger.

https://ipac.ecosphere.fws.gov/location/KVZ5VK5KDFDI3IVRB2CNAICUSA/resources 1/15 IPaC resource list
This report is an automatically generated list of species and other resources such as critical habitat (collectively referred to as trust resources) under the U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service's (USFWS) jurisdiction that are known or expected to be on or near the project area referenced below. The list may also include trust resources that occur outside of the project area, but that could potentially be directly or indirectly affected by activities in the project area. However, determining the likelihood and extent of effects a project may have on trust resources typically requires gathering additional site-specific (e.g., vegetation/species surveys) and project-specific (e.g., magnitude and timing of proposed activities) information.

Below is a summary of the project information you provided and contact information for the USFWS office(s) with jurisdiction in the defined project area. Please read the introduction to each section that follows (Endangered Species, Migratory Birds, USFWS Facilities, and NWI Wetlands) for additional information applicable to the trust resources addressed in that section.

This resource list is for informational purposes only and does not constitute an analysis of project level impacts.

The primary information used to generate this list is the known or expected range of each species. Additional areas of influence (AOI) for species are also considered. An AOI includes areas outside of the species range if the species could be indirectly affected by activities in that area (e.g., placing a dam upstream of a fish population even if that fish does not occur at the dam site, may indirectly impact the species by reducing or eliminating water flow downstream). Because species can move, and site conditions can change, the species on this list are not guaranteed to be found on or near the project area. To fully determine any potential effects to species, additional site-specific and project-specific information is often required.

Section 7 of the Endangered Species Act requires Federal agencies to "request of the Secretary information whether any species which is listed or proposed to be listed may be present in the area of such proposed action" for any project that is conducted, permitted, funded, or licensed by any Federal agency. A letter from the local office and a species list which fulfills this requirement can only be obtained by requesting an official species list from either the Regulatory Review section in IPaC (see directions below) or from the local field office directly.

For project evaluations that require USFWS concurrence/review, please return to the IPaC website and request an official species list by doing the following:

1. Draw the project location and click CONTINUE.

2. Click DEFINE PROJECT.

3. Log in (if directed to do so).

4. Provide a name and description for your project.

5. Click REQUEST SPECIES LIST.

Listed species and their critical habitats are managed by the Ecological Services Program of the U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service (USFWS) and the fisheries division of the National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration (NOAA Fisheries ).

Species and critical habitats under the sole responsibility of NOAA Fisheries are not shown on this list. Please contact NOAA Fisheries for species under their jurisdiction.

(A year is represented as 12 4-week months.) A taller bar indicates a higher probability of species presence. The survey effort (see below) can be used to establish a level of confidence in the presence score. One can have higher confidence in the presence score if the corresponding survey effort is also high.

How is the probability of presence score calculated? The calculation is done in three steps:

1. The probability of presence for each week is calculated as the number of survey events in the week where the species was detected divided by the total number of survey events for that week. For example, if in week 12 there were 20 survey events and the Spotted Towhee was found in 5 of them, the probability of presence of the Spotted Towhee in week 12 is

0.25. 2. To properly present the pattern of presence across the year, the relative probability of presence is calculated. This is the probability of presence divided by the maximum probability of presence across all weeks. For example, imagine the probability of presence in week 20 for the Spotted Towhee is 0.05, and that the probability of presence at week 12 (0.25) is the maximum of any week of the year. The relative probability of presence on week 12 is 0.25/0.25 = 1; at week 20 it is

0.05/0.25 = 0.2.

3. The relative probability of presence calculated in the previous step undergoes a statistical conversion so that all possible values fall between 0 and 10, inclusive. This is the probability of presence score.

To see a bar's probability of presence score, simply hover your mouse cursor over the bar.

Breeding Season ( )
Yellow bars denote a very liberal estimate of the time-frame inside which the bird breeds across its entire range. If there are no yellow bars shown for a bird, it does not breed in your project area.

Survey Effort ( )
Vertical black lines superimposed on probability of presence bars indicate the number of surveys performed for that species in the 10km grid cell(s) your project area overlaps. The number of surveys is expressed as a range, for example, 33 to 64 surveys.

To see a bar's survey effort range, simply hover your mouse cursor over the bar.

No Data ( )
A week is marked as having no data if there were no survey events for that week.

Tell me more about conservation measures I can implement to avoid or minimize impacts to migratory birds.

Nationwide Conservation Measures describes measures that can help avoid and minimize impacts to all birds at any location year round.

Implementation of these measures is particularly important when birds are most likely to occur in the project area. When birds may be breeding in the area, identifying the locations of any active nests and avoiding their destruction is a very helpful impact minimization measure.

https://ipac.ecosphere.fws.gov/location/KVZ5VK5KDFDI3IVRB2CNAICUSA/resources 11/15 To see when birds are most likely to occur and be breeding in your project area, view the Probability of Presence Summary. Additional measures or permits may be advisable depending on the type of activity you are conducting and the type of infrastructure or bird species present on your project site.

What does IPaC use to generate the migratory birds potentially occurring in my specified location? The Migratory Bird Resource List is comprised of USFWS Birds of Conservation Concern (BCC) and other species that may warrant special attention in your project location.

The migratory bird list generated for your project is derived from data provided by the Avian Knowledge Network (AKN). The AKN data is based on a growing collection of survey, banding, and citizen science datasets and is queried and filtered to return a list of those birds reported as occurring in the 10km grid cell(s) which your project intersects, and that have been identified as warranting special attention because they are a BCC species in that area, an eagle (Eagle Act requirements may apply), or a species that has a particular vulnerability to offshore activities or development.

Again, the Migratory Bird Resource list includes only a subset of birds that may occur in your project area. It is not representative of all birds that may occur in your project area. To get a list of all birds potentially present in your project area, please visit the AKN Phenology Tool.

What does IPaC use to generate the probability of presence graphs for the migratory birds potentially occurring in my specified location? The probability of presence graphs associated with your migratory bird list are based on data provided by the Avian Knowledge Network (AKN).

This data is derived from a growing collection of survey, banding, and citizen science datasets .

Probability of presence data is continuously being updated as new and better information becomes available. To learn more about how the probability of presence graphs are produced and how to interpret them, go the Probability of Presence Summary and then click on the "Tell me about these graphs" link.

How do I know if a bird is breeding, wintering, migrating or present year-round in my project area? To see what part of a particular bird's range your project area falls within (i.e. breeding, wintering, migrating or year-round), you may refer to the following resources: The Cornell Lab of Ornithology All About Birds Bird Guide, or (if you are unsuccessful in locating the bird of interest there), the Cornell Lab of Ornithology Neotropical Birds guide. If a bird on your migratory bird species list has a breeding season associated with it, if that bird does occur in your project area, there may be nests present at some point within the timeframe specified. If "Breeds elsewhere" is indicated, then the bird likely does not breed in your project area.

What are the levels of concern for migratory birds?
Migratory birds delivered through IPaC fall into the following distinct categories of concern:

1. "BCC Rangewide" birds are Birds of Conservation Concern (BCC) that are of concern throughout their range anywhere within the USA (including Hawaii, the Pacific Islands, Puerto Rico, and the Virgin Islands);

2. "BCC - BCR" birds are BCCs that are of concern only in particular Bird Conservation Regions (BCRs) in the continental USA; and

3. "Non-BCC - Vulnerable" birds are not BCC species in your project area, but appear on your list either because of the Eagle Act requirements (for eagles) or (for non-eagles) potential susceptibilities in offshore areas from certain types of development or activities (e.g. offshore energy development or longline fishing).

Although it is important to try to avoid and minimize impacts to all birds, efforts should be made, in particular, to avoid and minimize impacts to the birds on this list, especially eagles and BCC species of rangewide concern. For more information on conservation measures you can implement to help avoid and minimize migratory bird impacts and requirements for eagles, please see the FAQs for these topics.

Details about birds that are potentially affected by offshore projects For additional details about the relative occurrence and abundance of both individual bird species and groups of bird species within your project area off the Atlantic Coast, please visit the Northeast Ocean Data Portal. The Portal also offers data and information about other taxa besides birds that may be helpful to you in your project review. Alternately, you may download the bird model results files underlying the portal maps through the NOAA NCCOS Integrative Statistical Modeling and Predictive Mapping of Marine Bird Distributions and Abundance on the Atlantic Outer Continental Shelf project webpage.

Bird tracking data can also provide additional details about occurrence and habitat use throughout the year, including migration. Models relying on survey data may not include this information. For additional information on marine bird tracking data, see the Diving Bird Study and the nanotag studies or contact Caleb Spiegel or Pam Loring.

What if I have eagles on my list?
If your project has the potential to disturb or kill eagles, you may need to obtain a permit to avoid violating the Eagle Act should such impacts occur.

Proper Interpretation and Use of Your Migratory Bird Report The migratory bird list generated is not a list of all birds in your project area, only a subset of birds of priority concern. To learn more about how your list is generated, and see options for identifying what other birds may be in your project area, please see the FAQ "What does IPaC use to generate the migratory birds potentially occurring in my specified location". Please be aware this report provides the "probability of presence" of birds within the 10 km grid cell(s) that overlap your project; not your exact project footprint. On the graphs provided, please also look carefully at the survey effort (indicated by the black vertical bar) and for the existence of the "no data" indicator (a red horizontal bar). A high survey effort is the key component. If the survey effort is high, then the probability of presence score can be viewed as more dependable. In contrast, a low survey effort bar or no data bar means a lack of data and, therefore, a lack of certainty about presence of the species. This list is not perfect; it is simply a starting point for identifying what birds of concern have the potential to be in your project area, when they might be Item 6A

The list helps you know what to look for to confirm presence, and helps guide you in knowing when to implement conservation measures to avoid or minimize potential impacts from your project activities, should presence be confirmed.

Coastal Barrier Resources System
Projects within the John H. Chafee Coastal Barrier Resources System (CBRS) may be subject to the restrictions on federal expenditures and financial assistance and the consultation requirements of the Coastal Barrier Resources Act (CBRA) (16 U.S.C. 3501 et seq.). For more information, please contact the local Ecological Services Field Office or visit the CBRA Consultations website. The CBRA website provides tools such as a flow chart to help determine whether consultation is required and a template to facilitate the consultation process.

THERE ARE NO KNOWN COASTAL BARRIERS AT THIS LOCATION.

Data limitations
The CBRS boundaries used in IPaC are representations of the controlling boundaries, which are depicted on the official CBRS maps. The boundaries depicted in this layer are not to be considered authoritative for in/out determinations close to a CBRS boundary (i.e., within the "CBRS Buffer Zone" that appears as a hatched area on either side of the boundary). For projects that are very close to a CBRS boundary but do not clearly intersect a unit, you may contact the Service for an official determination by following the instructions here:
https://www.fws.gov/service/coastal-barrier-resources-system-property-documentation Data exclusions
CBRS units extend seaward out to either the 20- or 30-foot bathymetric contour (depending on the location of the unit). The true seaward extent of the units is not shown in the CBRS data, therefore projects in the offshore areas of units (e.g., dredging, breakwaters, offshore wind energy or oil and gas projects) may be subject to CBRA even if they do not intersect the CBRS data.

https://ipac.ecosphere.fws.gov/location/KVZ5VK5KDFDI3IVRB2CNAICUSA/resources 15/15 The Service's objective of mapping wetlands and deepwater habitats is to produce reconnaissance level information on the location, type and size of these resources. The maps are prepared from the analysis of high altitude imagery. Wetlands are identified based on vegetation, visible hydrology and geography. A margin of error is inherent in the use of imagery; thus, detailed on-the-ground inspection of any particular site may result in revision of the wetland boundaries or classification established through image analysis.

The accuracy of image interpretation depends on the quality of the imagery, the experience of the image analysts, the amount and quality of the collateral data and the amount of ground truth verification work conducted. Metadata should be consulted to determine the date of the source imagery used and any mapping problems.

Wetlands or other mapped features may have changed since the date of the imagery or field work. There may be occasional differences in polygon boundaries or classifications between the information depicted on the map and the actual conditions on site.

Data exclusions
Certain wetland habitats are excluded from the National mapping program because of the limitations of aerial imagery as the primary data source used to detect wetlands. These habitats include seagrasses or submerged aquatic vegetation that are found in the intertidal and subtidal zones of estuaries and nearshore coastal waters. Some deepwater reef communities (coral or tuberficid worm reefs) have also been excluded from the inventory. These habitats, because of their depth, go undetected by aerial imagery.

Data precautions
Federal, state, and local regulatory agencies with jurisdiction over wetlands may define and describe wetlands in a different manner than that used in this inventory. There is no attempt, in either the design or products of this inventory, to define the limits of proprietary jurisdiction of any Federal, state, or local government or to establish the geographical scope of the regulatory programs of government agencies. Persons intending to engage in activities involving modifications within or adjacent to wetland areas should seek the advice of appropriate federal, state, or local agencies concerning specified agency regulatory programs and proprietary jurisdictions that may affect such activities.

City of Colfax Project AwardStaff Report April 12, 2023 Algae Control and I&I Mitigation Staff Report to City Council
FOR THE May 24, 2023 REGULAR CITY COUNCIL MEETING
From: Wes Heathcock, City Manager
Prepared by: Wes Heathcock, City Manager
Subject: Authorization to Award – Algae Reduction Project and I&I Mitigation Project Budget Impact Overview:

N/A: Funded: √ Un-funded: Amount: $8,189,857 Fund(s): 575 Summary/Background
The proposed resolution, if adopted, will award and authorize the City Manager to execute contracts for two contracts that will improve the City’s sewer collection system and treatment plant. The City will not have sufficient funds to complete either project unless the SWRCB approves an increase in grant funds for these projects, so both can be terminated early if the additional grant funds do not become available.

On November 29, 2021, the City received a construction grant totaling nearly $5.6 million from the State Water Resources Control Board’s (SWRCB) Clean Water State Revolving Funds (CWSRF). The grant is intended to fund three sewer-related projects, including a solar system at the wastewater treatment plant (WWTP), an algae reduction system at the WWTP, and citywide stormwater inflow and groundwater infiltration (I&I) mitigation.

Solar system construction began in early 2022 and was substantially completed at the end of March 2023. The solar system construction will cost approximately $2 million which leaves about $3.6 million for the algae reduction and I&I mitigation projects.

The Algae Reduction and the I&I Mitigation Projects were advertised for bid in January 2023 with bids opened on March 9, 2023. The City has 120 days from bid opening (until July 7, 2023) to award either or both contracts, or reject all bids. Staff propose to award both contracts, and give McGuire & Hester notice to proceed. If the SRF grant is increased as SWRCB staff indicated it will be, McGuire & Hester will pursue the project to completion. If the SRF grant is not increased, both projects will be terminated once the grant funds run out. McGuire & Hester agreed to accept $60,000 plus the compensation due it through the date of early termination if its contract is terminated early. W.M. Lyles agreed to delay start of construction until after the SRF grant is increased with an estimated project cost increase due to labor and material cost increase of $154,000. If the City terminates the contract then W.M. Lyles will be eligible, with justification, for reimbursement of their out-of-pocket costs plus markup, in accordance with the contract terms.

Algae Reduction Conditional Award Authorization
The Algae Reduction Project was developed by City staff because treated and partially treated wastewater stored in WWTP ponds must be removed by sending it to through the WWTP’s treatment process. During warmer months the ponds grow algae that inhibits the process. The Algae Reduction Project will add a RECOMMENDED ACTION: Adopt Resolution __-2023 authorizing the City Manager to execute agreements for the following projects, subject to early termination if the State Water Resources Control Board (SWRCB) does not adequately increase the grant funds for these projects:

1. The Algae Reduction Project to W.M. Lyles Company for a construction cost of $3,964,224.

2. The I&I Mitigation Project to McGuire and Hester for a construction cost of $4,225,633.

Item 9A
195
City of Colfax Project AwardStaff Report April 12, 2023 Algae Control and I&I Mitigation specialized pre-treatment process called Suspended Air Floatation (SAF). A SAF system can separate the algae from the rest of the pond water to mitigate the inhibiting effect that the algae has on the WWTP’s treatment process.

Six bids were received on March 9th with costs ranging from $3,964,224 to $4,587,576. W.M. Lyles was determined to be responsible with the lowest responsive bid.

Staff recommends that City Council conditionally award the project to W.M. Lyles for $3,964,224 and authorize construction expenditures up to $4,564,224 (a $600,000 contingency). The condition for the award is described below.

I&I Mitigation Conditional Award Authorization
I&I is caused by groundwater and street-level stormwater entering the sewer collection system. Once in the system, the City must treat this water at its WWTP at a significant cost. The goal of the I&I Mitigation project is to reduce, to the greatest extent possible, I&I. Along with treatment cost reductions, benefits include increased sewer capacity to support new development without costly upgrades to the sewer system and less wear and tear on the pipes and manholes.

The improvements for the I&I Mitigation Project include the following key components. • Rehabilitation, replacement, and new construction of 6,070 feet of sewer main • Replacement and new construction of 49 sewer manholes • Replacement of 78 sewer services
Two bids were received on March 9th with costs totaling $4,225,633 and $5,238,228. McGuire and Hester was determined to be responsible with the lowest responsive bid.

Staff recommends that City Council conditionally award the project to McGuire and Hester for $4,225,633 and authorize construction expenditures up to $5,225,633 (a $1,000,000 contingency). The condition for the award is described below.

CWSRF Grant and Condition for Award
The City has an existing agreement with SWRCB for a $5.6 million grant for the projects, including the nearly completed Solar System. It is expected that the Solar System will cost $2.0 million which leaves $3.6 for the I&I Mitigation and Algae Reduction projects. Combined, the Algae Reduction and I&I Mitigation Projects are expected to cost $9.6 million, before contingency; therefore, the project has a grant shortfall of $5.8 million.

City staff has been talking with SWRCB staff regarding this shortfall since August 2022. SWRCB staff have stated several times that the grant funds allocated to Colfax can be increased to as much as $21 million based on the City’s median household income. Based on these verbal statements by SWRCB staff, City Council authorized bidding of the two projects in January.

At this time, it is the City staff’s understanding that the CWSRF grant will be increased to $13.3 million (which includes enough funding for the substantially completed Solar Project and for the I&I Mitigation and Algae Reduction projects with $1.9 million in construction contingency) in August 2023 when SWRCB completes statewide programming of the CWSRF funds. However, the existing remaining grant funds of $3.6 million should be available to spend on either or both the I&I Mitigation and Algae Reduction project the City by the end of May 2023.

Item 9A
196
City of Colfax Project AwardStaff Report April 12, 2023 Algae Control and I&I Mitigation If the City Council authorizes the award of the Algae Reduction and I&I Mitigation Projects, then it should be conditioned on the allocation of the $3.6 million balance of the existing $5.6 million SRF grant. SWRCB staff will not provide written confirmation that the additional $7.7 million will be programmed to Colfax in August 2023. The City’s bid documents allow 120 days between bid opening and award which must occur by July 7, before SWRCB staff’s anticipated August grant increase is approved. If City Council does not award the project within that time period, then there are two possible outcomes. 1) The contractors will agree to enter into a construction contract but at rates higher than their bid amounts due to increasing labor and materials costs; and, 2) The City must reject all bids and decide whether to rebid the projects.

On May 12th, SWRCB staff, through email, notified City staff “that there are sufficient funds in the project’s funding source to cover the increase and that the project schedule is within the appropriation date range for the funding source.“ While this statement is not a guarantee that the additional fund will be provided, it is SWRCB staffs method of providing reassurance.

The City has a $5.6 million construction grant with SWRCB. Of the three projects, the Solar System Project is fully funded. There are insufficient grant funds to complete the other two projects without a $5.8 million grant increase. Along with the additional $5.8 million grant fund, City staff has requested $1.9 million construction contingency, increasing the total grant to $13.3 million. SWRBC staff has verbally stated that those additional funds will be granted to the City in August 2023.

Staff recommends that City Council authorize the award of the Algae Reduction and I&I Mitigation Projects under the condition that SWRCB allocates the $3.6 million remaining in the existing $5.6 million construction grant funds. Contracts are available at City Hall for review. These initial funds will be used to start construction, but the additional $5.8 million will be required to complete construction and the additional $1.9 million construction contingency will ensure unforeseen eligible costs are also covered by the CWSRF grant. If the grant is not increased as anticipated, both projects will be terminated early and the contractors will be compensated accordingly.

Fiscal Impacts
The total fiscal impact for the construction of both the Algae Reduction and I&I Mitigation Project is $8,189,857. If the proposed contingency is used then construction will cost $9,789,857.

The initial construction cost of the projects will be reimbursed by the State through the existing CWSRF funding Agreement No. D2101007 executed between the City and SWRCB on January 6, 2022. The agreement is expected to be amended in August 2023 to fund the remaining construction with 100% CWSRF grant funds.

1 City of Colfax Draft Short-term Rental Regulations
Staff Report to City Council
FOR THE May 24, 2023 REGULAR CITY COUNCIL MEETING
From: Wes Heathcock, City Manager
Prepared by: Emmanuel Ursu, Planning Director
Subject: Draft Short-Term Rental Regulations
Budget Impact Overview:

N/A: √ Funded: Un-funded: Amount: Fund(s):

Summary/Background
At its January 25, 2023 meeting, the City Council directed staff to draft regulations to allow ShortTerm Rentals (STRs). A STR unit is a residential unit occupied for no more than 30 days. The Colfax Municipal Code allows lodging (in hotels, motels, and bed and breakfast inns) in commercial zones and is silent on STRs.

Staff drafted an outline of proposed regulations for the City Council’s consideration. Before preparing the outline of proposed regulations, staff solicited public input via an online survey and reviewed the STR regulations of Placer County and Nevada County and the cities in the two counties. A summary of the public input, the regulations of the nearby jurisdictions, and draft regulations for Council consideration are provided in the Discussion section below and in the attachments.

After the Council provides direction on the regulations to include in a STR ordinance, staff will prepare an ordinance for City Council introduction and adoption at a future meeting.

Discussion
Online Survey Responses
Public input was provided via an online survey with nine questions (Attachment A). A link to the survey was posted on the City of Colfax Facebook page and flyers with a QR code link to the online survey were posted at City Hall and Post Office (Attachment B). Sixty-five (65) people responded to the survey between March 23 and March 29, 2023 and comments from eight people were posted on the City’s Facebook page.

Most responders to the survey (65%) support allowing STRs in Colfax. Fifty-four percent (54%) support allowing a mixture of both hosted and non-hosted rentals with a preference for more hosted rentals than non-hosted rentals. When asked what the maximum number of STRs is appropriate for Colfax, the median response for non-hosted rentals was five and the median response for hosted rentals was ten. The responses ranged from zero to no limit on the number of STRs that should be allowed. Impacts on quality of life (such as noise, parking, and litter) were the primary issues responders indicated should be addressed in a STR ordinance with regulations that correspond to the quality-of-life issues (such as quiet hours, prohibition on amplified music outdoors, on-site parking, occupancy limits, and a requirement for local management).

RECOMMENDED ACTION: Provide direction on the preparation of a draft ordinance to allow shortterm rentals.

STR Regulations in Surrounding Jurisdictions
Staff reviewed the STR regulations of ten jurisdictions: Placer County, Nevada County, and all the incorporated cities and towns in both counties and summarized them in Attachment D. The Town of Loomis and City of Lincoln do not have regulations addressing STRs and Nevada County only regulates the collection of transient occupancy tax (TOT) and STRs associated with agritourism.

According to Town of Loomis Planning Department staff, they will be considering the adoption of a STR ordinance soon.

Placer County and the Town of Truckee have caps on the number of STRs (3,900 and 1,255, respectively). In all the jurisdictions in which STRs are allowed, an administrative permit is required and in Grass Valley a minor use permit is required for non-hosted STRs. In Auburn, a STR may be approved administratively unless a neighbor objects, in which case the permit is considered by the Planning Commission at a public hearing. Common themes of the STR regulations include parking requirements, limits on the number of guests, a local manager, posting of guest rules, and no special events (weddings, parties, etc.) Some jurisdictions also limit the number of days per year that may be rented on a short-term basis.

Will this raise the price of rentals and homes for sale? Will this ordinance stimulate new construction of housing to be used for short-term rentals?

Other jurisdictions have residency requirements and Colfax could incorporate similar language to their ordinance.

Staff Report May 24, 2023
Interim City Manager
Staff Report to City Council
FOR THE May 24, 2023 REGULAR CITY COUNCIL MEETING
From: Wes Heathcock, City Manager
Alfred A. “Mick” Cabral, City Attorney
Prepared by: Alfred A. “Mick” Cabral, City Attorney
Subject: Discussion, Consideration And Possible Action To Adopt A Resolution Approving An Agreement With MNJ Advisors, Inc., And Appointing Michael J. Luken As Interim City Manager Effective June 28, 2023
Budget Impact Overview:

N/A: √ Funded: Un-funded: Amount: Fund(s):

Summary/Background
City Manager Wes Heathcock announced he has accepted a position with the Town of Loomis, and that his final day with the City is June 9, 2023. The city will be opening an executive recruitment for the search process for the permanent City Manager; however, this process can take up to six months from the time it is initiated. Based upon this timing, there is a need for the City Council to hire an Interim City Manager.

The City Manager is hired by and serves at the pleasure of the elected City Council. The City Council is the policy body, and the City Manager is the individual responsible for implementing Council policy direction. The City Manager manages the organization on a daily basis, hires staff, oversees the budget and drives forward the City Council’s projects and initiatives.

The appointment of an Interim City Manager is important to ensure the organization has the leadership it needs during the recruitment for a new, permanent City Manager, and a competent Interim City Manager can give the City Council the time it needs to conduct a thorough recruitment.

The City Council held discussions for the Interim City Manager position in a closed session over the past month. The City was fortunate to have a highly qualified candidate available to assume this position.

The City Council decided to bring forward Michael Luken for formal consideration as the Interim City Manager. Mr. Luken has 35 years in land use planning, economic development, city/county management and recently retired as the Executive Director of Placer County Transportation Planning Agency and is uniquely familiar with many projects in progress in Colfax. Mr. Luken has an MA in Rural and Town Planning from Chico State University and a BA in Geography and Planning from California Polytechnic University, Humboldt. Mr. Luken brings a wealth of city management experience to the City of Colfax.

RECOMMENDED ACTION: DISCUSS, CONSIDER AND ADOPT RESOLUTION No. ___-2023

APPROVING AN AGREEMENT WITH MNJ ADVISORS, INC, AND APPOINTING MICHAEL LUKEN AS INTERIM CITY MANAGER EFFECTIVE JUNE 28, 2023
Item 9C
221
2 City of Colfax
Staff Report May 24, 2023
Interim City Manager
If approved, Mr. Luken will take the reins on June 28, 2023. Mr. Luken will serve until a permanent City Manager is hired by the City Council or his term expires pursuant to the contract with his consulting firm, MNJ Advisors Inc., whichever is earlier.

Because Mr. Luken is a CalPERS retiree, the City Council is required to approve a formal PERS resolution appointing Mr. Luken for the limited time the recruitment is in process. A resolution identifying some of the key requirements accompanies this staff report for action by the City Council.

These requirements include, among other things:
• Limited Duration Work: The retiree can be hired only as an interim or acting appointment during the period of recruitment.
• Single Appointment: The retiree can be appointed only once to the vacant position. In other words, the City Council cannot extend the date of service or make a change to the agreement in the future.
• Compensation: The hourly rate to be paid to the retiree cannot be less than the minimum or exceed the maximum for the vacant position as listed on the employer’s publicly available pay schedule. The retiree cannot receive any benefits, incentive, compensation in lieu of benefits, or other form of compensation in addition to the hourly pay rate. The retiree may be reimbursed for reasonable expenses.

For all of the above reasons, staff recommends the City Council discuss, consider and take action to adopt the proposed resolution, approve an agreement with MNJ Advisors Inc., and appoint Michael Luken as Interim City Manager effective June 28, 2023.

Fiscal Impact
A budget amendment is not needed to support this proposed action. The contract can be funded for the remaining FY 2022/2023 and for the FY 2023/2024 fiscal year.
