City of Colfax Quarterly Sales Tax Analysis QE 12.31.24 Staff Report March 26, 2025
Staff Report to City Council
FOR THE MARCH 26, 2025 REGULAR CITY COUNCIL MEETING
From: Ron Walker, City Manager
Prepared by: Shanna Stahl, Administrative Services Officer Subject: Quarterly Sales Tax Analysis – Quarter Ended December 31, 2024 Budget Impact Overview:
N/A: √ Funded: Un-funded: Amount: Fund(s):
Summary/Background
City staff provides a quarterly report on Sales and Use Tax revenues as quarterly information is available. We have received the final Accounting for Sales and Use Tax revenues for the quarter ended December 31, 2024, which is the second quarter of fiscal year 2024-2025.
As reported in the chart below, sales tax revenues for the quarter ended December 31, 2024 increased 126% as compared to the same quarter last year, and was 5% lower as compared to the previous quarter (09/31/2024).
Fiscal and Budget Impacts
The budget for the current fiscal year was forecasted at a conservative 1% growth over the 2023-2024 fiscal year budget and equates to 50% of the actual revenues received in the fiscal year.
Sales tax revenues are very difficult to predict. While we did experience a strong opening quarter for fiscal year 2024-2025 sales tax revenue, the increase was not projected to continue. The mid-year budget review will reflect the necessary adjustments to this revenue source.
Staff will continue to monitor and provide updates as additional information is available.

Item 2D24
Staff Report to City Council
FOR THE MARCH 26, 2025, REGULAR CITY COUNCIL MEETING
From: Ron Walker, City Manager
Prepared by: Kathy Pease, AICP, Planning Consultant
Subject: Housing and General Plan Annual Progress Report Budget Impact Overview:
N/A: Funded: Un-funded: √ Amount: Fund(s):
RECOMMENDED ACTION
Pass a Motion to 1) accept the 2024 General Plan and Housing Element Annual Progress Reports by adopting a Resolution and 2) direct staff to transmit the report to the Governor’s Office of Land Use and Climate Innovation (formerly the State’s Office of Planning and Research (OPR)) and Department of Housing and Community Development (HCD).
BACKGROUND
Pursuant to California Government Code Section 65400, every local government jurisdiction is required to submit its General Plan and Housing Element Annual Progress Report to HCD and OPR by April 1 of each year covering the previous calendar year. The reports are required to be submitted to the City Council and adopted by resolution.
Discussion & Analysis:
The attached General Plan and Housing Element Annual Progress Report covers calendar year 2024 (January 1, to December 31st). The reports require reporting on the construction of new residential units and document the City’s progress in meeting its Regional Housing Needs Assessment (RHNA) requirement. Additionally, the report provides a summary of policies found within the City’s Housing Element and the City’s progress in meeting requirements. Both of which are mandatory reporting requirements for the Housing Element portion of the Annual Progress Report. For the City, a major accomplishment included the approval of General Plan update including the certification of the Environmental Impact Report and adoption of a comprehensive Zoning Code update.
For 2024, there were only two accessory dwelling units built which results in two new residential structures built. Therefore, there is only minor change to the City’s Regional Housing Needs Allocation (RHNA). In order to meet the allocation, approximately 95 (17-very low, 11- Low-, 21-moderate and 48-above moderate affordability) new units would need to be constructed by the end of this Housing Element cycle (2029).
Environmental Review:
The General Plan and Housing Element Annual Progress Reports are informational in nature and are not considered a project under Section 15378 of the California Environmental Quality Act (CEQA) guidelines. Therefore, no further environmental analysis is required.
Fiscal Impact:
The cost of preparing the Annual Progress Report comes from the City’s General Fund, therefore, there is a minor impact to the City in preparing the annual progress report. Many funding programs require up-to-date submissions of Housing Elements and Annual General Plan Progress Reports. Failure to submit the Housing Element Annual Progress Report will negatively impact the City of Colfax’s ability to apply for and receive grants such as CDBG and SB2 (Building Homes and Jobs Act) funds.
RECOMMENDED ACTION: Adopt Resolution __-2025 accepting the 2024 Annual Housing Progress Report and General Plan Progress Report and Direct Staff to submit to the State.

I. Introduction
This report has been prepared pursuant to the requirements of Government Code Section 65400. Guidance for preparation of the report is provided by the Governor’s Office of Planning and Research (OPR).
The purpose of the document is to report on the City of Colfax’s progress in implementing its General Plan. Therefore, staff will submit the Housing Element and General Plan Annual Progress Report to the state to meet the April 1, 2025, deadline.
The General Plan and Housing Element Annual Progress Report will be presented to the City Council on March 26, 2025. If the City Council has comments or revisions the revisions will be made before submission to the state.
Background
The City adopted a comprehensive update to the General Plan in December 2023.
Informational Document
This document is a reporting document and does not create or alter policy. The content is provided for informational purposes only and is exempt from the requirements of the California Environmental Quality Act (CEQA) per Guidelines Section 15306 (Information Collection).
Organization
After this Introduction, a summary of projects over last year is provided, and then each General Plan element is addressed.
II. Plans and Projects
During 2024 the city completed the following programs. This list is not intended to be exhaustive.
Zoning Code Update to address implementation measures identified in the City’s Housing Element to streamline housing entitlements. Edits included revisions to the Zoning Code to:
• Ordinance amendment to be less restrictive for uses that could occur on ground floor retail.
• streamline accessory dwelling units (ADU) by adding a link to the city’s website with pre-approved plans, using Placer County’s approved building plans on their website.
• Add definitions for:
Item 2E29
o “Employee Housing is privately-owned housing that provides living quarters in connection with any work, whether or not rent is involved.” o “A Low-Barrier Navigation Center (LBNC) is a "Housing First," low barrier, temporary, service-enriched shelter that helps homeless individuals and families to quickly obtain permanent housing. It differs from homeless shelters in that it provides onsite services intended to provide long term housing solutions.
o “Single Room Occupancy (SROs). A SRO is a single furnished room that can be rented month-to-month or for a more extended period. SROs usually provide common-area kitchens and bathrooms in lieu of separate facilities for each unit; however, a few units may have individual kitchens and bathrooms”. Because they are small in size they often provide low income housing options.
• The Ordinance amendment added Low-barrier navigation centers (LNBCs) to the allowed uses in the residential and mixed-use zoning district consistent with California Government Code 65662.
• Finally, the proposed ordinance amendments add the provision of SROs to the residential zone as a conditional use in the RM zone.
For new housing production, the City processed two applications ministerially (building permits) for two accessory dwelling units (ADUs). One of the ADUs has secured an occupancy permit. The other unit is still in progress.
III. General Plan Elements
The General Plan details the City’s guiding principles for a variety of planning topics and is the constitution for future development. California Government Code Section 65300 et seq. provides direction and specifications for the content of the General Plan.
The following seven elements are required:
• Land Use
• Circulation
• Conservation
• Open Space
• Noise
• Safety
• Housing
The elements may be combined or renamed, but basic requirements must be included.
An agency may adopt any type of optional element, such as an Economic Element, at its discretion. Only the Housing Element must be certified by another agency (i.e., HCD).
The City of Colfax General Plan consists of the following Elements:
• Land Use
Item 2E30
• Conservation and Open Space
• Circulation
• Community Design
• Safety
• Noise
• Housing
• Economic Development
The following sections address implementation for each of the City’s General Plan Elements.
Land Use Element
The Land Use Element guides the City’s land use policy and ensures that appropriate development takes place, with adequate provision of public services and utilities. Land use designations are specified, defined, and mapped in the Land Use Diagrams. The land use designations roughly correspond to the City’s zoning districts. Summary City Goals found within the Land Use Element are as follows:
• To designate, protect, and provide land to ensure sufficient residential development to meet community needs.
• To retain and renew existing commercial land uses and designate sufficient new commercial areas to meet future city needs.
• To provide sufficient land designated for industrial uses that are compatible with the existing community.
Potential impacts from new development are assessed under CEQA. Additional conditions of approval and mitigation may be required for individual specific projects if deemed necessary to provide for issues such as screening, parking, and noisereduction, or otherwise address issues per the General Plan’s direction.
Community Design
Although not a required element, the Community Design Element is intended to address the built character, design and relationship to the natural environment. • Foster good design, provide a feeling of civic pride, encourage investment and to improve the area’s economic vitality.
Conservation and Open Space
The Conservation and Open Space Element works to provide a description of the land and waters that are unimproved and are to be devoted to natural uses through land use designation; a description of conservation efforts that will protect and maintain natural resources; and a description of existing and planning recreation sites and facilities. The summary City Goal found within the Open Space, Conservation, and Recreation Item 2E31
Element is as follows:
• To designate, protect, and conserve natural resources, open space, and recreation lands in the City; and provide opportunities for recreation activities to meet citizen needs.
Circulation
The general well-being of a modern-day City is dependent upon its ability to efficiently and safely transport people and goods within, and through the area. The Circulation element provides a plan of how the City will coordinate transportation and circulation activities, promote efficient travel, and make efficient use of existing and proposed facilities and public utilities transporting goods and people. The summary of City Goals found within the Circulation is as follows:
• To provide and maintain a safe and efficient system of streets, highways, and public transportation to service residents’ needs, promote sound land use, and protect and enhance scenic highways.
Safety
The Community Safety and Seismic Safety Element provide a description of activities and services which provide protection from natural and manmade hazards. The summary City Goal found within the Community Safety and Seismic Safety Element is as follows:
• To minimize the danger of natural and manmade hazards and to protect residents and visitors from the dangers of earthquake, fire, flood, or other disaster.
The state requires the Safety Element be updated at the time the Housing Element is updated.
Noise
The Noise Element provides an analysis of community noise and the exposure to noise by its citizens. The purpose of the Noise Element is to protect citizens from noise that could jeopardize their health and welfare. The summary City Goal found within the Noise Element is as follows:
• To protect residents from health hazards and annoyance associated with excessive noise levels.
Housing Element
The Housing Element works to provide housing for all of the community and addresses Item 2E32
the needs of specified populations. The current Housing Element covers the period 2021 to 2029.
The City continues to work with service providers to provide for the needs of lowerincome households, the disabled, and other special needs populations, per the direction provided by the Housing Element. Summary City Goals found within the Housing Element are as follows:
• Accommodate the City’s share of Regional Housing Needs for all income groups.
• Encourage the provision of affordable housing.
• Improve/Conserve the existing supply of housing.
• To conserve existing affordable housing.
• Ensure equal housing opportunity.
• To promote energy conservation.
• Promote the preservation of Historic Resources.
Economic Development
Although not a required element, the Economic Development Element is intended to provide a framework to encourage a year-round economy and economic growth. • Provide a broad range of economic opportunities for all Colfax residents and reflect the City’s commitment to maintaining a balance mix of economic sectors, encourage high-wage jobs, and support businesses and commercial activities.
IV. Involvement/Participation
To achieve the summary goals listed above, the city has continued dialogue with local, regional, State, and federal agencies on a variety of projects, thereby continuing previous coordination efforts with other agencies and facilitating new opportunities.
V. Conclusion
The General Plan is the City’s roadmap and guiding vision. Due to the world’s everchanging nature, upkeep and maintenance of the General Plan should be a continuous process. The City implements the General Plan’s vision on a day-to-day basis in its planning projects and strives to include the public in the decision-making process.

1 Draft Historic Resources Inventory
City of Colfax
Staff Report March 26, 2025
Staff Report to City Council
FOR THE MARCH 26, 2025, REGULAR CITY COUNCIL MEETING
From: Ron Walker, City Manager
Prepared by: Kathy Pease, AICP, Planning Consultant
Subject: Historic Resource Inventory.
Budget Impact Overview:
N/A: Funded: Un-funded: √ Amount: Fund(s):
Summary/Background
The City of Colfax updated its General Plan (2040) in December 2023. A General Plan Policy (5.16.1) states that the City shall conduct research and/or maintain a visual inventory (i.e. pictures/illustrations) that illustrate the original appearance and significance of historic structures. Further, Implementation Measure 5.1G states that the City shall “Create and maintain an inventory of all historic structures and areas in Colfax.
The Zoning Code Chapter 17.116.020 Design Guidelines recognizes that most of the Downtown core area contains historic structures. However, staff cannot find an official Historic Resources List. Therefore, it is recommended that the City Council consider adopting an Historic Resources Inventory. This would implement the General Plan and assist staff in evaluating projects when improvements or projects are proposed.
Discussion
The City has numerous commercial and residential properties that appear to have historic significance based on their unique representation of the history of Colfax as examples of early Western architecture and association with the railroad and the gold rush era. However, the information is not easily accessible and is found in several different documents (Zoning Code, General Plan, Historic Plaques, and Historic District Design Master Plan etc.). In addition, information regarding historic resources is not complete.
The Zoning Code establishes the Downtown Historic District with a zoning overlay designation.
The Historic District overlay zone requires a Design Review Permit for improvements or alterations.
Historic Significance
An historic resource is considered significant (building, structure, object, site, landscape or a related grouping or collection of these (district)) if it is significant in American history or locally significant as an example of architecture, archeology, engineering, historic event, or culture.
Two buildings located in the Downtown area are listed on both the federal National Register of Historic Places and the California Historic Resources List: The Depot at 7 Main Street and the RECOMMENDED ACTION: Adopt Resolution __-2025 accepting and adopting the Historic Resources Inventory for the City of Colfax
Item 5A41
2 Draft Historic Resources Inventory
City of Colfax
Staff Report March 26, 2025
Colfax Passenger Depot at 99 Railroad Avenue. There may be other buildings that would qualify as historic landmarks, but it doesn’t appear that there has been a comprehensive inventory and analysis, recently.
On the City’s website a poor-quality copy of the Historic District Design Master Plan dated October 2009 was prepared by Foothill Associates, Environmental Consulting. It includes a property inventory, but the inventory is incomplete. The Master Plan was intended to identify three core improvements that could support the Historic District. These included Gateways and connections, a conceptual Master Plan, and a Phasing Plan. It does not appear that these improvements were ever implemented.
Analysis
Maintaining and preserving historic resources is a valuable way to celebrate and continue Colfax’s unique identity, cultural and architectural heritage. Colfax is home to many commercial and residential structures that are well-preserved examples of its early time-period.
This inventory is limited in scope. Staff reviewed existing information from the Historic District Design Master Plan, information on the City, State Office of Historic Preservation (SHPO) and National Register of Historic Resources websites, field surveys, and research to compile the Draft Historic Resources Inventory. This effort is concentrated on the Downtown Core Historic District (Main Street, Grass Valley Street and North Auburn Street) because information is readily available. There may be other resources outside that Downtown that would qualify as an historic resource which have not been analyzed. It is expected that the Historic Resources Inventory will need to be updated and amended on an ongoing basis as additional information becomes available and grants or other funding mechanisms are explored. It would be great to hire an historical consultant to do a comprehensive citywide survey, but resources are not available at this time.
Planning consultant staff has a background in historical analysis and was able to pull together some information. Primary Record forms have been completed (Attachment 3) on the state of California Department of Parks and Recreation forms for the individual buildings. These forms are what jurisdictions usually use to document and inventory resources. The forms include address, age of building, known historical information, architectural style, and photographs.
Historic Resource Advantages
Advantages to property owners for buildings listed on an adopted Historic Resources Inventory include the following:
Mills Act
Enacted in 1972 the Mills Act Program is an economic incentive program in California which allows local governments to grant tax abatements for the restoration and preservation of qualified historic buildings by private property owners. Local governments can grant property tax relief to property owners who are actively restoring or maintaining their historic property. In order to qualify, applicants must first demonstrate their property would be eligible for listing on the California State Resources Registry. Then they would provide a 10-year schedule and Item 5A42

Staff Report March 26, 2025
anticipated cost of work to be done to restore the property. The City Council could then enter into a contract and the applicant must show performance on a yearly basis.
California Historical Building Code (CHBC)
The CHBC provides alternative building regulations for repairs, alterations and additions necessary for the preservation, rehabilitation, relocation, related construction, change of use or continued use of a “qualified historical building or structure.” The CHBC recognizes that historic structures have unique construction issues when maintaining and adaptively reusing historic buildings. It is intended to allow flexibility in preserving structures.
General Plan Consistency Findings:
As noted, the City of Colfax General Plan includes the polices related to Historic Design Guidelines. Adoption of a City of Colfax Historic Resources Inventory is consistent with the goals of the General Plan.
Fiscal
This action has minimal impact on the City’s General Fund as a result of this action but has the potential to assist property owners with tax credits and the ability to use the Historic Building Code when considering repairs. As time and resources allows, staff should explore grant opportunities for historic preservation.
Environmental Review
Under the California Environmental Quality Act (CEQA) historic resources are considered part of the environment and are subject to review under CEQA. Therefore, projects that have the potential to impact an historic resource would require environmental review and potential mitigation to reduce impacts. It should be noted that CEQA applies to projects with discretionary review; therefore, CEQA does not apply to projects applying only for building permits, since these are considered non-discretionary or ministerial actions.
When planning applications are submitted for buildings that are potentially significant historic resources, staff would require consistency with the Secretary of Interior’s Standards for the Treatment of Historic Properties for commercial properties. Residential properties would not require review. These standards, produced by the National Park Service, include recommendations for preservation, rehabilitation, restoration and reconstruction of historic properties to maintain their historic integrity. These standards can be found on the following website; https://www.nps.gov/orgs/1739/secretary-standards-treatment-historic-properties.htm There may be times when it is appropriate for applicants to hire historic architectural consultants.
The proposed Historic Resources Inventory qualifies under the “common sense” CEQA exemption pursuant to CEQA Guidelines Section 15060(c)(2) and 15061(b)(3), which provides that, where it can be seen with certainty that there is no possibility that a project may have a significant effect on the environment, the project is not subject to CEQA. CEQA only applies to projects that have the potential for causing a significant effect on the environment – either through direct impact or reasonably foreseeable indirect impact. Adopting an Historic Inventory does not have that possibility. It is not expected to prompt any new development or direct physical effects.
Accordingly, the City believes the “common sense” exemption is most appropriate for this project.

Item 5A46
Introduction
The City of Colfax updated its General Plan (2040) in December 2023. A General Plan Policy (5.16.1) states that the City shall conduct research and/or maintain a visual inventory (i.e. pictures/illustrations) that illustrate the original appearance and significance of historic structures. Further, Implementation Measure 5.1 G states that the City shall "Create and maintain an inventory of all historic structures and areas in Colfax.
An Historic Resources Inventory is a list of historic resources that merit conservation but are not legally protected. An Historic Resources List is a tool the City can use to identify properties of potential Historic significance. When reviewing land use entitlements The document is intended to be updated from time to time as additional information becomes available.
A table is provided which includes the address, assessor parcel number, identifying features, significant attributes, and age constructed.
The Zoning Code Chapter 17.116.020 Design Guidelines recognizes that most of the Downtown core area contains historic structures.
The Downtown Historic District contains structures that exhibit early western commercial architecture and convey a sense of the time period when the city was established. An historic district typically includes:
A. A concentration, linkage, or continuity of cultural resources, where at least 50 percent of the structures or elements retain significant historic integrity, (a "geographic Historic District") or
B. A thematically-related grouping of cultural resources which contribute to each other and are unified aesthetically by plan or physical development, and which have been designated or determined eligible for designation or is listed in the National Register of Historic Places or the California Register of Historical Resources, or is a California Historical Landmark or a California Point of Historical Interest (a "thematic Historic District").
In addition to either A. or B. above, the area also:
1. Exemplifies or reflects special elements of the City's cultural, social, economic, political, aesthetic, engineering, architectural, or natural history;
2. Is identified with persons or events significant in local, State, or national history;
a. Embodies distinctive characteristics of a style, type, period, or method of construction, or is a valuable example of the use of indigenous materials or craftsmanship;
2 Item 5A47
b. Represents the work of notable builders, designers, or architects; c. Embodies a collection of elements of architectural design, detail, materials or craftsmanship that represent a significant structural or architectural achievement or innovation;
d. Reflects significant geographical patterns, including those associated with different er�s of settlement and growth, particular transportation modes, or distinctive examples of park or community planning; and
3. Conveys a sense of historic and architectural cohesiveness through its design, setting, materials, workmanship or association; or as yielded or may be likely to yield, information important in history or prehistory.
Buildings outside the Downtown area may qualify as historic resources based on:
A. Provides a contextual understanding of the broader patterns of Riverside's cultural, social, economic, political, aesthetic. engineering, architectural, or natural history;
B. Represents established and familiar visual features of a neighborhood, community, or of the City;
C. Reflects significant development or geographical patterns, including those associated with different eras of settlement and growth; or D .. Conveys a sense of historic or architectural cohesiveness through its design, setting, materials, workmanship or association.
Brief historic overview:
The first occupants in this region were California Indian tribes, the Miwok and the Nisenan Maidu. The City contains areas of potential sensitivity for subsurface prehistoric resources due to past settlements in the area.
During the 1800s the area supported gold miners. Small trading posts were established to serve the miners who swarmed the Bear and American Rivers. The ore-rich Rising Sun gold mine was located on Ben Taylor Road and Hubley House stands on part of its acreage.
The settlement that is Colfax was known as Alder Grove in 1849, then later, as development increased, Alder Grove was re-named lllinoistown. By 1852, lllinoistown was known as a major supply hub for gold mining camps.
3 Item 5A48
In April 1852, the Reelfoot Williams Gang robbed a Nevada City stagecoach of $7,000 in gold bullion near lllinoistown. This was the first recorded stagecoach robbery in the gold country.
The Central Pacific Railroad was surveyed by Chief Engineer Theodore Judah during the early 1860's. Judah's plan called for some 690 miles of track to be constructed through some of the most difficult terrain ever encountered by a railroad, before it-could complete its goal of meeting the railroad in Promontory Summit, Utah. The first train arrived in Colfax in 1865-it was the terminus for two years while construction over the summit progressed.
California Governor Leland Stanford re-named the town Colfax in honor of Speaker of the House Schuyler Colfax who was instrumental in the creation of the first Wellness industry
Early in the 1900s Colfax was a center for tuberculosis recovery during a time when the disease was more deadly than heart disease or cancer. Long-time Colfax mayor Dr. Robert Peers started a tuberculosis hospital in Colfax in 1901, and many Colfax residents entered into the business of health care as well. They put beds on their screened porches and rented them to patients, who then could sleep surrounded by fresh air.
That early treatment facility would soon expand to five TB sanatoria with beds for 180 patients, at that time the largest private TB treatment group of sanatoria in the country. (Colfax Record, Sept. 2, 1921) By the 1920's there were numerous TB treatment facilities in the Colfax area. Dr. Peers was medical director of 6 such facilities, many of them established and operated by former patients of his. Several of these facilities were active in the treatment of TB into the 1930's. Gradually the number of patients decreased as alternative treatments became available. Some of the treatment facilities closed down completely, while others were redefined for other purposes such as senior care homes, recreational lodges, or apartments. In 1938 F. Lynn Smith, a young doctor with local roots, joined Dr. Peers and Dr. Atkinson in their medical practice in Colfax.
News articles and ads from the early 1940's indicate that Dr. Smith's focus was on general medical practice and surgery, not TB treatment.
The Colfax Hospital remained under Dr. Peers' supervision until 1946, when he sold it to Mrs. Elva Hafelfinger. In 1950 Dr. Vernon Padgett took over the hospital, still offering TB treatment part-time until at least 1955. (Colfax Record, Aug. 16, 1946; Mar. 3, 1950; Jul. 1, 1955). According to Dick Wayland, the hospital building was deemed a public nuisance and had to be torn down. The hospital was gone by 1967.
Produce shipment
Fruit was the main crop in the region and the fruit and wine industry thrived here for over a century. During the 1940's and 50's, the area was the leader of agriculture production in the western United States and Colfax was known as the fruit shipping capital of America. Historic fruit packing sheds still line the railway in downtown Colfax, some now housing restaurants and shops.
4 Item 5A49
Colfax had three agricultural advantages: (1) the Transcontinental Railroad gave access to distant markets; (2) Sierra snow provided icehouses and refrigeration ror shipping; and (3) gold-rush era water canals provided excellent irrigation.
The area's three main industries were devastated during the 1950's. The pear trees were attacked by a disease. A cure for TB was found. And the railroad replaced its nostalgic steam engines - which had been maintained in a roundhouse here - with diesel engines, maintained in Roseville.

Colfax Library is believed to have been started by a group of volunteer women in 1938. The first-known library was housed in a small building next to the home of Mrs. Viscia located on Grass Valley Street. In 1943, the library was moved to the old bakery building at the North end of Main Street.
The library moved again in 1946 to a small building next door to Kaufmann's Gas Station and Garage. The library remained there until 1951 when it moved next door into the former telephone company building. The library stayed in this building for twenty years, and then in 1971 it moved to the Justice Building on the comer of Culver Street. Finally in 1976, the library made its final move to the old Colfax Post Office building (opened in 1855) at the corner of Church and Main.
With much help from the Friends of the Colfax Library, an expansion project was completed in 2010. The building encompasses 3600 square feet and features historic embellishments such as the library's two staff closets made out of the old walk-in safes used by the post office.

Osswald Marson opened a little barbershop on Main Street (where Colfax Theater is now located). Later, he opened a second barbershop at the other end of the.street so he could grab the business of the patrons of the many saloons at that end of the street. He saw another opportunity when he realized the railroad employees, farmers, ranchers and miners working in the community needed heavy-duty work clothes. So he began selling Levis in his barbershop. In 1937 Ozzie Marson opened "Marson's Haberdashery and Barbershop.� In addition to Levis, Ozzie Marson expanded the clothing inventory to include work books and caps. *P3b.

The Freight Depot served as the transfer point and terminus for the Nevada County Narrow Gauge Railroad.
This line transported passengers, mining supplies, gold and fruit from April 20 1876 to July 1942 and Southern Pacific passengers until 1971. when AMTRAK assumed passenger operations. AMTRAK renewed passenger service to Colfax in 1976. Today, AMTRAK's eastbound and westbound California Zephyr trains stop in Colfax, and AMTRAK buses connect Colfax with Capitol Corridor trains in Sacramento.
The depot was retired from use in 1943. This structure replaced the original Central Pacific Depot, constructed in 1865. It included the Western Union Telegraph Office, Wells Fargo Express Office and a restaurant. It was destroyed by fire Tuesday morning, 26 September 1_905.
This structure replaced the original Central Pacific Depot, constructed in 1865. It included the Western Union Telegraph Office� Wells Fargo Express Office and a restaurant. It was destroyed by fire Tuesday morning, 26 September 1905.
The Freight Depot was moved first in 1905 and then moved again in the 1920s due to a track realignment and addition of a second main line.
Begun in earnest in the late l 900's, the depot renovation project included temporarily moving the entire building so that a new cement foundation could be constructed. In the early 1990's, new owner Union Pacific deeded the depot to the City of Colfax. A new roof and foundation were completed in 2000, and exterior repairs and painting were completed in 2002. PSRHS provided research on original SP paint colors, and on signage. In 2005 the completed preservation and conversion includes a museum, visitor center and waiting room for Amtrak. On Nov. 16, 2006, California State Parks' Ollice of Historic Preservation awarded the DPR 523A (9/20131 *Required information

The Colfax Hotel, formerly the Gillen Hotel, was built by an ex-Southern Pacific conductor to serve the rails and other travelers. For its 1903 grand opening, San Francisco dignitaries came by special train to tour its 56 rooms and restaurant. The hotel is currently undergoing restoration.
At one point, the Marvins leased the Gillen Hotel, and put the Marvin Hotel name on it. The date of this lease is not widely reported, but a June 30, 1922 Colfax Record article describes the Grand Opening of the "Marvin Inn" to be celebrated with "a dance in the Marvin Pavilion." This reference to the Pavilion points to the possibility that this was the Gillen Hotel. since the Gillen had a dance pavilion.
The Marvins continued to operate the original Marvin Hotel as a lunch counter and annex, although it was most likely Mary Belle that mainly oversaw the business at this point, since Fred Marvin was in poor health for the last 5 years of his life. (He died in August of 1923.) In March of 1923 a Colfax Record article announced that the Marvin Hotel business and lease was sold to Fred C. Dill and A. A. McKee. The Marvin Annex and Lunch Counter were not included in the sale. The new owners declared that they were changing the name of their hotel from the Marvin Inn to the Colfax Hotel.

[n September of 1924. Mary Belle Marvin sold her interest in the Marvin Annex and Lunch Counter to Mr. and Mrs. Howard Garrison. They, along with Charles McCormack carried on the business.
And so the Colfax Hotel and the Marvin existed across from each other for several more years. An ad for the Marvin Inn in a July 1939 issue of the Colfax Record announced that the future of the Marvin Inn would be "a home to parties seeking climate and real health and happiness" with "board and room ranging from $30.00 to $50.00 per month," a connected convalescent home, and a nurse in attendance. The Greyhound Bus depot was also located in the Marvin building.
But this new focus • a home for health and happiness • was not destined to last. One month later, on August
21. I 939. a fire broke out in the Marvin Hotel just before five o'clock in the afternoon. By the time the smoke was noticed and the fire alarm was sounded, the fire had "too big a start", and the fire department was unable to save the Marvin. They concentrated their efforts to prevent the fire from spreading to adjoining properties, especially the Colfax Hotel across the street. The fear was that if the Colfax Hotel caught on fire, the entire east side of the city would have been at risk. Although the firefighters were able to prevent the fire from spreading to the Colfax Hotel, the heat was so intense that smoke started pouring from parts of the Hotel. "A thermometer on the front porch of the hotel went up to 120 degrees and burst," and paint on the hotel was blistered. No one was in the rooms of the Marvin Hotel at the time of the fire, but "six or seven regular roomers lost all of their belongings." The Marvin Hotel was gone in less than a half hour after the fire had been detected.
Luck played a part in sparing the Colfax Hotel from a fiery demise, and owing in part to this quirk of fate, the Colfax Hotel stands today, ready to be restored to its original purpose.

City of Colfax Outdoor Dining Area on North Main St.
Staff Report March 26, 2025
Staff Report to City Council
FOR THE MARCH 26, 2025 REGULAR CITY COUNCIL MEETING
From: Ron Walker, City Manager
Prepared by: Ron Walker, City Manager
Subject: Discuss the temporary improvements for final consideration prior to beginning installation of long-term equipment - Outdoor Dining Area – North Main St.
Budget Impact Overview:
N/A: Funded: Un-funded: Amount: Fund(s):
Summary/Background
During the Covid pandemic two outdoor dining areas were put in place because indoor dining had been prohibited. One was located outside the Railhead and the other was located in front of Grandma Cs. The area in front of the Railhead has been removed, but the outdoor dining area in front of the business formally known as Grandma Cs, now the location of Snapdragon Provisions & Bloomin’ Mountain Flower shop remains and is in need of a complete makeover.
During the 2024 City budget meetings, the city council allocated $25,000 for new fencing with the understanding that the remaining outdoor dining area is temporary until the city can find funding for the Downtown Connectivity Plan which calls for shifting parking and the road center line of North Main Steet to provide gathering space along business frontage, adding a roundabout on the North end of the historic downtown area, and relocating the Caboose to the grass area next to the museum.
Caroline McCully, President Railroad Days non-profit was successful in obtaining a $10,000 grant from Union Pacific to help rehabilitate the remaining outdoor dining area.
On March 8th, the City held a workshop to discuss the Outdoor Dining Area configuration, fencing, tables. At tonight’s meeting the City Council will take additional input from community members and give directions to staff for completion of the temporary outdoor dining area.
At the March 12, 2025 City Council meeting, the City Engineer was given direction to put together a high-level cost estimate of the two proposed design (raised and street level) and drawings for the next Council Meeting.
The City Council directed the City Manager to get quotes and order fencing, and to work with Caroline McCully, President of Railroad Days for the purchasing of tables.
Attachments:
1. High-level cost estimate
2. Design Renderings
RECOMMENDED ACTION: Discuss and give direction.

City of Colfax Request to Rename Colfax Ballpark
Staff Report March 26, 2025
Staff Report to City Council
FOR THE MARCH 26, 2025 REGULAR CITY COUNCIL MEETING
From: Conor Harkins, City Attorney
Prepared by: Conor Harkins, City Attorney
Subject: Signage for the Colfax Ballpark
Budget Impact Overview:
N/A: Funded: Unfunded: √ Amount: $500-$1000 Fund(s):
Summary/Background
On October 23, 2024, Connie Marson, on behalf of the Colfax VFW, presented a history of the Colfax Ballpark and asked the City Council to consider changing signage at the park’s entrance to reflect the original dedication.
According to Ms. Marson’s history, the park was originally dedicated as the “Colfax Area Living War Memorial Park.” Ms. Marson requests the City Council rename the park the “Colfax Area Living Veterans War Memorial Park.” According to Ms. Marson, the Colfax VFW has raised $2,765.00 to replace the sign at the park’s entrance. A copy of Ms. Marson’s presentation is attached.
The Colfax General Plan and the Colfax Area Parks and Recreation Master Plan refer to the park as the “Colfax Ball Park Complex (Al Meyers Sports Field and Lions Club Community Park).” The sign at the park’s entrance reads “Colfax Ball Park.” This sign has been in place since at least 2007. There is also a plaque in memory of Al Meyers attached to the entrance sign’s plinth. Google Maps refers to the park as “Lions Children’s Park.” The cost of replacing the sign is currently unknown, but staff estimates designing a new sign would cost between $500 and $1,000.
Conclusions, Findings, and Recommendation
The City Council may:
1. Rename the ballpark by adopting the resolution presented by staff;
2. Revise the resolution presented by staff;
3. Give other direction to staff; or
4. Take no action.
Fiscal Impacts
$500–$1000 to design new sign. Labor and materials will cost more.
Attachments:
1. Draft Resolution
2. Entrance Sign

City of Colfax Shady Glen Sewer Consolidation Planning Application Staff Report March 26, 2025
Staff Report to City Council
FOR THE MARCH 26, 2025 REGULAR CITY COUNCIL MEETING
From: Ron Walker, City Manager
Prepared by: Ron Walker, City Manager
Subject: Wood Rodgers Contract Amendment to Continue Supporting Planning Application for the Shady Glen Community Sewer Consolidation Project Budget Impact Overview:
N/A: √ Funded: Un-funded: Amount: $10,000 Fund(s): 560, 561 Summary/Background
On June 14, 2023, through Resolution 23-2023, City Council authorized the City Manager to execute an agreement with Wood Rodgers to prepare two Planning Grant Applications to the State Water Resources Control Board (Water Board) for the Shady Glen Sewer Consolidation Project. One application addressed planning needed for construction of sewer improvements within the Shady Glen Community (Shady Glen Application), and the other application addressed planning for improvements to the City’s wastewater treatment plant and other facilities in exceedance of those needed for Shady Glen Consolidation (City Application). The contract was further amended on March 27, 2024 with the addition of annexation planning and coordination for the Shady Glen Application. The current agreement amount is $57,069 and includes preparation of two Plan of Studies, annexation workshops, and coordination with Water Board staff. Amended planning applications were submitted to the Water Board in May 2024. In January 2025, the Water Board authorized funding of the Shady Glen Application, but not the City Application.
At this time, Wood Rodgers, under the oversight of the City Manager, is coordinating the funding agreement with Water Board staff. The funding process was originally expected to conclude around August 2024; however, due to delays at the Water Board, the likely earliest date for completion of the funding agreement is August 2025.
The overall cost incurred by the City for both the Shady Glen and City Applications is $62,373. The City Application represents $8,477 of that cost, and the Shady Glen Application represents $53,896.
Recommendation
As currently drafted, the planning grant will reimburse the City for application preparation and oversight of the Shady Glen Application up to $65,000. The City will not be reimbursed for the City Application until that application is approved for funding; and, that approval is not expected until August 2025 or later.
To support the funding agreement process for the Shady Glen Application through August 2025, staff recommends that City Council amend, through the attached Resolution, the current contract with Wood Rodgers by $10,000. Wood Rodgers anticipates that the remaining effort will include providing Water Board staff with additional information, responding to questions, coordinating and attending meetings, and reviewing the Planning Grant Application agreement between the City and the Water Board through execution. Any unused funds for this aspect of the project can typically be reallocated to other aspects of the project.
RECOMMENDED ACTION: Discuss and consider adopting Resolution __-2025 amending the City’s agreement with Wood Rodgers by $10,000 for continued support with the Clean Water State Revolving Fund Planning Application for the Shady Glen Community Sewer Consolidation Project.
Item 8C 166
City of Colfax Shady Glen Sewer Consolidation Planning Application Staff Report March 26, 2025
Fiscal Impact
The City is currently funding the Application process through its Wastewater Funds, 560 and 561. If and when the City obtains the Water Board grant funds, the Water Board will reimburse the City the actual cost of preparing and processing the Shady Glen Application, including the cost allocated to the Shady Glen Application for this agreement with Wood Rodgers. No additional cost is being incurred for the City Application, and the City cannot request reimbursement for that application until a separate grant agreement is executed.
Based on current accounting and projections, the Shady Glen Application will cost $65,000, including those from staff and Wood Rodgers. It is uncertain the final cost of the City Application, but those costs are currently $8,477.
