AN ORDINANCE REPEALING COLMA MUNICIPAL CODE SUBCHAPTER 4.13 AND ADOPTING A NEW SUBCHAPTER 4.13 REGULATING THE USE OF DISPOSABLE FOOD SERVICE WARE BY FOOD FACILITIES PURSUANT TO CEQA GUIDELINE 15061(b)(3) AND 15308 TO ALIGN WITH NEW STATE MANDATES
The City Council of the Town of Colma does ordain as follows:

ARTICLE 1. SUBCHAPTER 4.13 REPEALED AND REPLACED.

Subchapter 4.13 is hereby repealed in its entirety and replaced as follows (additions are shown in underline, deletions are shown in strikethrough):

Subchapter 4.13: Sustainable Food Service Ware Ordinance

4.13.010 Findings and Purpose.
(a) The use of single-use plastic disposable food service ware has been determined to have significant impacts on the environment, including environmental contamination, litter on streets, and plastic pollution in waterways and oceans; and
(b) Polystyrene, also known as Styrofoam, has also become a problematic environmental pollutant given its non-compostable and nearly non-reusable nature; and (c) M any new compostable plastic alternatives contain fluorinated chemicals that have been linked to serious health issues including some cancers and thyroid disruption. These compostable plastics do not fully degrade in a marine environment and break down into microplastics, which are consumed by microorganisms and end up in the fish that we eat; and (d) On February 11, 2020 the San Mateo County Board of Supervisors introduced an ordinance
regulating all disposable food service ware from food vendors within the un-incorporated County and has encouraged all the Cities and Towns within the County to adopt the County ordinance by reference; and
(e) On February 23, 2021 the County ordinance was updated with a new timeline to extend the enforcement date to March 25, 2022 due to the impacts of COVID-19; and (f) On October 5, 2021, AB 1276 was signed into law by Governor Gavin Newsom. AB 1276 restricts the distribution of single -use foodware accessories (e.g., utensils, straws, stirrers, condiment packets, etc.) by restaurants and other food facilities. (g) On October 5, 2021, AB 1200 was also signed into law by the Governor. AB 1200 mandates that no person shall distribute, sell, or offer for sale in the state any food packaging (including single-use foodware) that contains regulated perfluoroalkyl and polyfluoroalkyl substances (PFAS).

4.13.070 Case-by-Case Consideration of Requests for Hardship Exemption. (a) Grounds for an exemption. An exemption from any of the provisions of this Subchapter may be granted by the Office of Sustainability or designee upon demonstration by a Food Facility to the satisfaction of the County that strict application of the requirements would cause undue hardship. An “undue hardship” includes, but is not limited to the following:
(1) A situation unique to the Food Facility where a suitable alternative that conforms with the requirements detailed in Section 4.13.040 (a), (b), (d), and (e) does not exist for a specific application.
(2) I mposing the provisions of this Subchapter would cause significant economic hardship. “Significant economic hardship” may be based on, but not limited to, demonstrating that suitable Disposable Food Service Ware is not available at a commercially reasonable price and the additional cost associated with providing the Disposable Food Service Ware is particularly burdensome to the Food Facility based on the type of operation(s) affected, the overall size of the business/operation, the number, type and location of its facilities, the impact on the overall financial resources of the Food Facility, and other factors. Reasonable added cost for a suitable item as compared to a similar item that the Food Facility can no longer use shall not by itself constitute adequate grounds to support an exemption for such item. In determining whether a significant economic hardship has been established, the County Manager or designee shall consider the following information: ability of the Food Facility to recover the additional expense by increasing its prices; the availability of tax credits and deductions; outside funding; and other options.
(b) Request for an exemption. A request for an exemption from the requirements of this Subchapter shall include all information deemed necessary by the County to render a decision, including but not limited to documentation showing the factual support for the requested exemption. A request for an exemption may be approved by the County Manager or designee, in whole or in part, with or without conditions. The duration of the exemption, if granted, shall also be determined by the County Manager or designee. Information about the application process for requesting an exemption will be available on the Office of Sustainability’s website and in the Office.

4.13.080 Enforcement.
(a) The County Manager or designee may enforce this Subchapter on the Town’s behalf. (b) A violation of this Subchapter is an infraction and is also punishable by County administrative fines as set forth in San Mateo County Municipal Code Chapter 1.40. (c) Compliance plan.

The County of San Mateo, its officers, employees and agents are hereby authorized to enforce, on behalf of the Town of Colma, this Subchapter of the Colma Municipal Code, and any amendments thereto, within the jurisdictional boundaries of the Town of Colma. Such enforcement authority includes, without limitation, the authority to hold hearings, issue citations, or assess administrative fines for violations of this Subchapter within the geographical limits of the Town of Colma.

Ord ______ Sustainable Food Service Ware Ordinance (Introduced 07.13.22) Page 9 of 10 (1) If requested by the County Manager or designee, a Food Facility that is in violation of any of the provisions detailed in this Subchapter shall create and submit to the Office of Sustainability or designee a compliance plan, which will include information on corrective action(s) that the Food Facility shall undertake to come into compliance. Other requested information may include, and are not limited to proposed timeline for corrective action(s), and identification of individuals responsible for ensuring compliance. (2) The Food Facility shall create and submit its completed compliance plan within fourteen calendar days (14) from the time of request by the County Manager or designee. (d) This Section shall not be interpreted to limit any otherwise available civil or administrative remedies under law.

ARTICLE 2
. SEVERABILITY
If any section, subsection, subdivision, paragraph, sentence, clause or phrase added by this ordinance, or any part thereof, is for any reason held to be unconstitutional or invalid or ineffective by any court of competent jurisdiction, such decision shall not affect the validity or effectiveness of the remaining portions of this ordinance or any part thereof. The City Council hereby declares that it would have passed each section, subsection, subdivision, paragraph, sentence, clause or phrase thereof irrespective of the fact that any one or more subsections, subdivisions, paragraphs, sentences, clauses or phrases are declared unconstitutional, invalid or ineffective.

ARTICLE 3. CEQA COMPLIANCE
The City Council finds that the changes made to the Codes are exempt from environmental review requirements pursuant to Section 15061(b)(3) of the California Environmental Quality Act ("CEQA") on the grounds that it can be seen with certainty that there is no possibility that the provisions contained within the ordinance may have a significant effect on the environment.

Further, the changes made to the Codes are also exempt from the requirements of CEQA pursuant to CEQA Guidelines Section s 15307 and 15308, as an action taken by regulatory agencies to assure the maintenance, restoration, enhancement of natural resources, or protection of the environment.

ECOMMENDATION
Staff recommends that the City Council adopt:

MOTION TO DESIGNATE COUNCIL MEMBER JOHN GOODWIN AS THE VOTING

DELEGATE AND CITY MANAGER BRIAN DOSSEY AS THE ALTERNATE VOTING

DELEGATE FOR THE ANNUAL LEAGUE OF CALIFORNIA CITIES CONFERENCE IN SEPTEMBER 2022.

EXECUTIVE SUMMARY
This year’s League of California Cities Annual Conference will be held September 7 - September 9, 2022 in Long Beach, CA. The final day of the conference includes the annual business meeting, where League membership considers and takes action on resolutions that establish League policy. The Council should designate a voting delegate to take part in the business meeting.

FISCAL IMPACT
There is no direct fiscal impact associated with this action. Attendance at various conferences is budgeted annually.

BACKGROUND
The Town of Colma is a longstanding member of the League of California Cities. In order to participate in voting at the Annual Business Meeting on Friday, September 9, 2022, the Town must officially designate a voting delegate. This delegate can be a member of City Council or a Town official, such as the City Manager. Designating a voting delegate will ensure Colma’s interests are represented on key policy-related issues that may be considered at the Annual Business Meeting.

Council Member John Goodwin will be participating in the conference this year. Council may choose to designate him as the Voting Delegate so that the Town is represented and able to participate in the Annual Business Meeting.

Item #3
Staff Report re: League of CA Cities Voting Delegate 2022 Page 2 of 2 City Manager Brian Dossey will also be participating in the conference. Council may choose to designate him as the Alternate Voting Delegate so he may vote in the event that Council Member Goodwin is unable to attend.

Once Council has designated a delegate and alternate by motion, the City Clerk will complete and submit the Voting Delegate Form (Attachment A).

Council Adopted Values
Participating in the Annual Business meeting furthers the Council’s adopted values of Responsibility and Vision because providing input on important local, regional and state policy issues protects the Town’s long-term financial stability and other interests.

Alternatives
The Council could opt to designate someone other than Council Member Goodwin as the Voting Delegate and City Manager Brian Dossey as the Alternate Voting Delegate. The Council could opt to not designate a voting delegate for the business meeting, however doing so would preclude the Town from having a voice in setting the League’s policy initiatives for the upcoming year.

CONCLUSION
Staff recommends Council designate Council Member John Goodwin Voting Delegate and City Manager Brian Dossey Alternate Voting Delegate for the League Conference.

EXECUTIVE SUMMARY
Staff recommends that the City Council consider adopting a resolution calling on Sutter Health to reopen the Mack E. Mickelson Therapy Pool and to maintain the same open access hours that were in place prior to January 2020.

FISCAL IMPACT
None.

BACKGROUND
The Mack E. Mickelson Arthritis and Rehabilitation Center Therapy Pool is an Americans with Disabilities Act-accessible warm water therapy pool operated by Sutter Health and located at the Mills Health Center in San Mateo, California. The Mickelson Therapy Pool was constructed over 25 years ago using charitable contributions from residents of San Mateo County to serve as a centerpiece of an arthritis center created by Mills Peninsula. The pool has been used for over 25 years by thousands of residents of San Mateo County who suffer from a broad range of health issues, including permanent disabilities, debilitating injuries, autoimmune disorders, and mobility impairments, to rehabilitate those health issues and mitigate physical decline.

Despite the critical need for the facility, in June 2021, Sutter Health announced that it would permanently close the Mickelson Therapy Pool to independent use by patrons. Closing Item #4
Staff Report re Resolution in Support for Mickelson Therapy Pool Page 2 of 2 Mickelson removes a valuable healthcare resource for people to assist them in daily activities.

Members of the community have requested that the Council adopt a resolution of support for reopening the pool to public access.

The City Council of the Town of Colma does hereby resolve as follows:

1. Background
(a) The Mack E. Mickelson Arthritis and Rehabilitation Center Therapy Pool is an Americans With Disabilities Act-accessible warm water therapy pool operated by Sutter Health and located at the Mills Health Center, in San Mateo, California; and (b) the Mickelson Therapy Pool was constructed over 25 years ago using charitable contributions from residents of San Mateo County to serve as a centerpiece of an arthritis center created by Mills Peninsula; and
(c) the Mickelson Therapy Pool has been used for over 25 years by thousands of residents of San Mateo County who suffer from a broad range of health issues, including permanent disabilities, debilitating injuries, autoimmune disorders, and mobility impairments, to rehabilitate those health issues and mitigate physical decline; and (d) Mickelson Therapy Pool has historically provided both preventative and interventionist therapies to residents of San Mateo County suffering from health issues; and (e) there is also an apparent and growing need for the services provided by the Mickelson Therapy Pool, due to San Mateo County’s rapidly increasing number of elderly residents who are highly likely to suffer from health issues requiring a warm water therapy pool; and (f) Mickelson Therapy Pool is the only pool of its kind in San Mateo County, and there are no comparable warm water therapy pools that can adequately accommodate the residents of San Mateo County who previously relied upon Mickelson Therapy Pool and who are now suffering from acute and chronic physical pain and mental anguish without it; and (g) in spite of the critical need for the facility, in June 2021, Sutter Health announced that it would permanently close the Mickelson Therapy Pool to independent use by patrons and closing Mickelson removes a valuable healthcare resource for people to assist them in daily activities; and
(h) 4,300 patients, caregivers, and community members have signed a petition to reopen the Mickelson Therapy Pool in order to increase the health, independence, and dignity of residents who rely upon it; and
(i) Sutter Health, its subsidiaries and affiliated entities receive significant financial benefits from their operations in San Mateo County and warm water therapy pools in the Attachment A
Res. 2022-__, Resolution in Support of Mickelson Therapy Pool Page 2 of 2 region are able to operate profitably and safely, including under COVID-19 protocols; and

2. Order
(a) In light of the foregoing, the City Council believes that Sutter Health should be called upon to reopen the Mickelson Therapy Pool and to maintain the same open access hours that were in place prior to January 2020.
(b) The City Council does hereby resolve that promptly reopening the Mack E. Mickelson Arthritis and Rehabilitation Center Therapy Pool for community use with the same open access hours that it had prior to January of 2020 would preserve and improve the health of residents in San Mateo County who have historically relied upon it or who could benefit from warm water therapy to maintain their health, independence, and dignity.

RECOMMENDATION
Staff recommends that the City Council adopt:

RESOLUTION APPROVING AND AUTHORIZING THE CITY MANAGER TO EXECUTE A

THREE-YEAR FINANCIAL PROJECTION AND GASB REPORTING SERVICE CONTRACT WITH GOVINVEST FOR A TOTAL CONTRACT VALUE OF $104,000.

EXECUTIVE SUMMARY
The Town has utilized GovInvest for our required GASB reporting, pension and OPEB projection, and consulting services since 2016. Over the years, the Town added the labor projection module and plans to add the financial projection module in the coming fiscal year. The Town plans to utilize GovInvest’s consultants to prepare a presentation on pension liabilities in the coming months to discuss and assess the impact of the recent market fluctuation. To continue the services into FY 2022-23, the total contract value with GovInvest will exceed the City Manager’s signing authority. To date, the Town spent a total of $62,300 in total annual subscription fees.

The attached renewal is for three additional years and totals $104,000. Staff plans to utilize GovInvest for the 2022-23 pension liabilities assessment and funding strategy.

Item #5
Staff Report re GovInvest Contract Renewal Page 2 of 3

FISCAL IMPACT
The Finance annual budget includes the yearly renewal fee for GovInvest. The total contract value is $104,000 with the annual payment as follows:

Total - annual 32,500.00 34,000.00 37,500.00
Total Contract Value 104,000.00

CKGROUND AND ANALYSIS
The Governmental Accounting Standard Board (GASB) is the governing authority on financial reporting requirement. With the issuance of GASB 64 in 2012 and GASB 75 in 2015, the Town was required to engage with an actuary to complete the annual GASB 64 and GASB 75 valuation reports. These reports summarize pension and OPEB liabilities, respectively.

Since 2016, the Town has engaged GovInvest to complete the annual GASB 64 and GASB 75 reports. Their cost was the most competitive and their services included online projection models and consulting services. The online projection model for pension and OPEB were used in the development of the 2018 and 2021 Unfunded Liabilities Funding Strategies. On March 10, 2021, Dan Matusiewicz, pension expert from GovInvest, presented to the City Council and the public on the current health of the Town’s pension liabilities and potential funding strategies to stabilize future obligations. Additionally, for the 2021 labor negotiations and the 2022- 23 budget development, staff utilized GovInvest’s labor projection module and reduced staff time by 2 weeks.

Since the Town has partnered with GovInvest for many years, the total contract value will exceed the City Manager’s signing authority with this upcoming renewal. The proposed renewal fee for GovInvest reporting, modeling, and consulting services totals $104,000, with an annual commitment of $32,500 to $37,500 as shown above. The attached includes pension, OPEB, and labor modules, the required GASB valuation reports, and two years of the financial modeling module. The financial modeling module is a new system and will further reduce staff time needed during budget development.

The attached contract (Attachment B) has been reviewed and approved by GovInvest’s legal counsel and the Town’s City Attorney’s office.

Reasons for the Recommended Action/Findings
GovInvest modeling, reporting, and consulting services help the Town meet its annual financial reporting requirements and increase efficiency.

Staff Report re GovInvest Contract Renewal Page 3 of 3 Council Adopted Values
The Town’s partnership with OpenGov showcases the Town’s commitment to financial transparency (part of the Honesty and Integrity Value) and its ability to be innovative in its effort to communicate with the public (part of the Vision Value).

A
lternatives
The City Council may direct staff to shorten the terms in the agreement or remove the Financial Modeling Module or Labor Module.

CONCLUSION
The City Council should adopt the resolution approving and authorizing the City Manager to execute a three-year GASB reporting, projection modeling, and consulting services with GovInvest for a total contract value of $104,000.

he City Council of the Town of Colma does resolve as follows:

1. Background
(a) The Town has utilized GovInvest’s GASB reporting, projection, and consulting services since 2016; and

(e) Based on the above, staff is recommending the Town enter into a three year contract with OpenGov to continue the existing relationship so that the Town can continue to utilize their tools and resources.

2. Findings
(a) The City Council finds that this purchase is consistent with Colma Municipal Code Subchapter 1.06, Purchasing and Contracting, as this agreement is an extension of an existing arrangement which can be entered into without competitive bidding pursuant to Section 1.06.180(n). Further, the City Council finds that pursuant to Colma Municipal Code Section 1.06.180(o) that this GovInvest contract should not be subject to competitive bidding as it would not be in the best interest of the Town based on the high level of satisfaction with their past services and a desire to avoid any unnecessary disruption in services.

(a) The contract between the Town of Colma and GovInvest, a copy of which is attached to the Staff Report for this matter, shall be and hereby is approved by the City Council of the Town of Colma.

 Data Request: Support the customer in retrieving appropriate census file reports from retirement system/ actuary in most recent valuation.

 Validation: Actuaries and Developers to stress-test and validate results against actuarial standards of practice and acceptable level of deviation within results to liabilities and costs.  Support: answer customer questions as they come up about modelling or validation

Onboarding and implementation for the pension module of the GovInvest Total Liability Calculator includes a detailed data request outlining specific reports the City needs to receive from the pension plan. The City will be asked to remove any and all sensitive information. Actuarial calculations need to run on standard assumptions for life expectancy by gender, mortality tables, and salaries. Other benefit formulas and calculations surrounding actuarial standards of practice and agreed upon for the pension plan benefits are the baseline for the software. Our team will request this data securely in a manner set by the City’s standard practice. The City will also match employees to either bargaining level and/or department level if analysis is desired to split out the impact of liabilities and costs further. The City will NOT upload data into the system, the GovInvest team will handle all data input and validation of results; if GovInvest has questions we will communicate in writing with the City lead point of contact. Once results have been validated with our actuaries and developers, logins will be provided to the City. Standard validation and delivery of logins for implementation after data has been successfully retrieved from the customer will take about 4-8 weeks depending on the complexity of the build, the size of the plan as well as timely delivery of Data requested from the City. These details will be communicated further, and timelines established.

Exhibit B
Service Level Terms

The Services shall be available 99% of the time, measured monthly, excluding holidays and weekends and scheduled maintenance. If Customer requests maintenance during these hours, any uptime or downtime calculation will exclude periods affected by such maintenance. Further, any downtime resulting from outages of third-party connections or utilities or other reasons beyond Company’s control will also be excluded from any such calculation, although Company agrees to use all reasonable best efforts to abate or minimize such third-party interruptions. Customer's sole and exclusive remedy, and Company's entire liability, in connection with Service availability shall be that for each period of downtime lasting longer than 12 hours, Company will credit Customer 1% of Service Fees for each period of 30 or more consecutive minutes of downtime (one “Credit” encompasses all periods of downtime in a given day); provided that no more than one such credit will accrue per day. Downtime shall begin to accrue as soon as Customer (with notice to Company) recognizes that downtime is taking place, and continues until the availability of the Services is restored. In order to receive downtime credit, Customer must notify Company in writing within 3 business days from the time of downtime, and failure to provide such notice will forfeit the right to receive downtime credit. Such credits may not be redeemed for cash and shall not be cumulative beyond a total of credits for one (1) week of Service Fees in any one (1) calendar month in any event. Company will only apply a credit to the month in which the incident occurred. Company’s blocking of data communications or other Service in accordance with its policies shall not be deemed to be a failure of Company to provide adequate service levels under this Agreement.

STAFF REPORT
T
O: Mayor and Members of the City Council
FROM: Brian Dossey, City Manager
MEETING DATE: July 27, 2022
SUBJECT: Sale of 1365 Mission Road

RECOMMENDATION
Staff recommends that the City Council make the following motion:

MOTION FINDING THAT THE TOWN OWNED PROPERTY AT 1365 MISSION ROAD IS

EXEMPT SURPLUS PROPERTY AND DIRECTING THE CITY MANAGER TO PREPARE, LIST AND SELL THE TOWN OWNED PROPERTY AT 1365 MISSION ROAD FOR SALE

BACKGROUND AND ANALYSIS
As part of the 2020-2022 Strategic Plan, staff was directed to look for strategies that would help generate revenue for the Town of Colma. This strategy is also in alignment with the 2017-2019 Strategic Plan previous goal of Securing the Town’s Long Term Financial Health. As part of both of these goals, and during Strategic Plan workshops over the past few years, staff had proposed the sale of the property at 1365 Mission Road as a one -time injection of revenue increasing the Town reserves for future projects or emergencies.

Staff is recommending that the City Council direct the City Manager to prepare the property for sale and then contract with a local real estate agent to list and sell the property. After conducting a walk through with the Department of Public Works and Hildebrand (Property Manager), staff directed Hildebrand to install new carpet, paint, replace small fixtures and make minor repairs.

Surplus Land Act Compliance
As the City Council may be aware, any disposal or sale of public property is subject to the Surplus Land Act contained at Government Code Section 54220 et seq. (the “Act”). In general, the Act requires that prior to disposing of land, the local agency must determine if the land is considered “surplus land” or “exempt surplus land.” Surplus land must be sold pursuant to the provisions of the Act. Exempt surplus land does not need to comply with the noticing and timing provisions of the Act.

If the land is deemed “surplus land” then prior to disposing of the land, the local agency would be required to send a “Notice of Avai lability” of surplus land to various housing and other government entities within whose jurisdiction the surplus land is located . Once the notice is received, any entity interested in the surplus land must notify the local agency in writing of its Item #6
Staff Report – Sale of 1365 Mission Road Page 2 of 3
interest in purchasing or leasing the land within 60 days . The local agency and the interested entity must then enter into good faith negotiations to determine a mutual ly satisfactory sales price and terms or lease terms. If the price or terms cannot be agreed upon after a good faith negotiation period of not less than 90 days, the land may be disposed of without further regard to surplus land procedures, with the exception of reporting to the State Department of Housing and Community Development, otherwise known as “HCD.”
With regard to 1365 Mission Road, the Town believes the property is “exempt surplus land” as the square footage of the unit is 1,290 sq ft. Under Government Code Section 54221(f)(1)(B)(1) of the Act, surplus land less than 5,000 square feet in area is exempt surplus land. See also Govt C. § 54222.3 (“This article shall not apply to the disposal of exempt surplus land as defined in Section 54221 by an agency of the state or any local agency.”).

As such, after the City Council declares the property to be “exempt surplus” property, the Town can dispose of the property without complying with the Act.

Town Purchasing Ordinance Compliance
Staff plans to contract with Hildebrand Real Estate for the listing and sale of the property. As the selling agent Hildebrand would receive the industry standard commission of 2.5% of the sale price of the unit. For this 2.5% commission, Hildebrand will list the property, market and show the property , and oversee the sale of the property. Per recent comparables in the area, Hildebrand is recommending listing the property at $999,999.00 Per the Town’s Purchasing Ordinance, the City Manager is authorized to contract for services with any vendor without competitive bidding where the total payment by the Town is not more than $75,000. See, Colma Municipal Code Section 1.06.060. Assuming the property sells between $900,000 to $ 1,100,000, the total commission at 2.5% would total $22,500 – 27,500 which is well under the $75,000 threshold to trigger competitive bidding under the Town’s Purchasing Ordinance. As such, the City Manager can directly contract with Hildebrand for the sale of the property.

Once offers are received, staff will schedule a closed session with the City Council to discuss and negotiate any offer.

Alternatives
The City Council could choose not to sell the property at 1365 Mission Road and direct staff to rent the unit. However, this is not the recommended action and not in alignment with the goals identified in the Strategic Plan.FISCAL IMPACT
The City Council’s decision to sell the property at 1365 Mission Road will increase the Town’s reserves by an estimated amount of $900,000 - $1,100,000. Staff recommends dedicating a portion of the revenues received to the General Fund (11) as well as the Capital Fund (31).

ENVIRONMENTAL
The City Council’s action to sell the property at 1365 Mission Road is not a project subject to the California Environmental Quality Act as it can be seen with certainty that the action will not have Staff Report – Sale of 1365 Mission Road Page 3 of 3
a significant effect on the environment pursuant to CEQA Guideline 15061(b)(3). This is especially true as any sale would maintain the status quo and cause no change in the environment.

CONCLUSION
Staff recommends that the City Council by motion, find that the Town owned property at 1365 Mission Road is “exempt surplus” property under the Act, and direct the City Manager to prepare, list and sell the Town owned property at 1365 Mission Road.
