To: Birsan, Edi <[email protected]>; City Clerk <[email protected]> Subject: I Am A District 4 Community Member In Support Of Passing Rent Stabilization And Just Cause For Eviction Ordinance!

Hello Vice-Mayor Birsan,

I am Passion Polanco and I am a resident of Concord’s District 4. No matter where you start, success in life begins at home for all ages and all people. When we have safe, secure places to live in Concord, parents earn more, kids learn better, health and well-being improve, our communities are stronger, and our region has the building blocks for a thriving city. This is why I am calling to show my support for the passing of rent stabilization and just cause for eviction.

I support our community’s ask of a rent stabilization policy that will:
• Cap rent increases at 3% or 60% of the Consumer Price Index (CPI), whichever is lower. • Include low income tax credit buildings
• Make the ordinance retroactive to January 2023, so that base rents are set where they were when the City Council expressed its intention to pass rent stabilization.

And a Just Cause for Eviction ordinance that will:
• Ensure protections upon move in.
• Expand protections to renters in single family homes and condominium units. • Guarantee renters the right to return to their unit under the same terms and rent after substantial repairs are completed.
• Protect renters from Ellis Act abuses.

As a family child care provider, I am required to increase my business rates and pass on the cost to my paying clients. Currently if landlords can increase rent up to 20% per year, that means my daycare families receive a 20% increase and my employees are more likely to not see increased wages or be terminated because I can't afford them.

I have known so many providers over the last 10 years who are forced to leave the city because their landlords continue to increase the rent. The ones who should be retiring can't afford to and are eventually forced to move.

10-20% rent increases each year drives small business like licensed daycares away, therefore driving the need for child care sky high and the costs become unaffordable.

Together we can take action to build long-term solutions that will ensure our families and neighbors are able to succeed for generations to come.

Thank you,
Passion Polanco

Subject: City Council meeting 8/8/2023 - General Public Comment

Good evening Concord City Council. My name is Jordon Bluestein. I live in Walnut Creek. I frequently bicycle in and around Concord. I’m a volunteer and member of Bike Concord.

My comment is in regard to recent traffic accidents causing traumatic injuries in June.

Current roadway infrastructure is insufficient, and must be updated to improve safety. In addition, more frequent communication between safety advocates and traffic engineering staff would improve road safety.

I am asking for the following:

• Take steps by adding physical protection separating pedestrians and cars at the intersections where recent pedestrian and cyclist collisions occurred. (Willow Pass at Diamond and Clayton at Treat)

• When repaving, the busiest and most dangerous intersections, add protected intersections for pedestrians and protected bike lanes.

• Study these intersections and make changes to make all road users safer.

• In addition to Concord’s Bicycle and Pedestrian Advisory Committee, (BPAC), advocates (ex:

Bike East Bay, BikeConcord, etc.) need regularly scheduled check-in with city staff to get ahead of design issues, to better understand their constraints so we can advocate for solutions. Bike East Bay and local partners in other East Bay cities have productive coordination meetings with city staff, which go beyond the scope of what BPACs do. More direct coordination between city staff and road safety advocates is needed.

Thank you,

Jordon Bluestein

Investment Portfolio Benefits all Funds
The City’s cash and investment portfolio represents money from all City funds, including the General Fund, Enterprise funds, Capital Projects funds, and other funds, which are restricted to specific purposes.

In general, monies held by the City are allocated by the City Council for spending or are purposefully retained in reserves. For example, the money in the Capital Projects fund has been identified to provide particular capital projects for the community and there is a plan for spending down the cash balance as the projects progress. In the General Fund, approximately $58 million is purposely held in reserve to meet the City’s reserve policy of a minimum of 17% and a goal of 30% of operating expenditures. Due to the schedule of when the City receives revenues throughout the year, cash reserves typically dip in the months of July through December until the first installment of Property Taxes are received in December. Typically, 100% of our General Fund revenues are received as of June 30.

Compliance with Reserve Policy is measured at the end of the City’s fiscal year, June 30.

Below is a chart showing the composition of the cash and investment portfolio included in the June 30, 2023 Treasurer’s Report. It is important to understand that the only money not already allocated (but not yet spent) or restricted for a specific purpose is the General Fund Emergency Reserve, which is shown in the pie chart on the chart below in gray.

Page 10 of 11 ends

Fund Descriptions:

General Fund is the City’s operating fund that accounts for general purpose revenues and expenses and are by definition unrestricted. The Cash and Investments in the General Fund is comprised of the following categories: 1) Assignments and Restrictions for obligations already entered into but not yet paid; 2) Advances to Other funds which primarily re present advances to the Local Reuse Authority for the Naval Weapons Station redevelopment project and to the Golf Course for improvements at that facility; and 3) Emergency Reserve funds that are retained per Council Policy to address financial uncertainties.

Enterprise Funds report operations that are operating in a manner similar to a private business enterprise.

The Sewer Fund is the largest fund in this category and is legally restri cted to be used only for sewer related
activities.

Special Revenue Funds account for funds where the source of revenue is dedicated and restricted to a specific purpose. Housing funds, State Gas Tax funds and Assessment District funds represent exampl es of these types of funds.

Capital Projects Funds are used to track the financial resources set aside to acquire and/or construct major capital assets.

Internal Service Funds (ISF) are established to account for special activities and services performed by a designated department for other departments on a cost ‐reimbursement basis or replacem ent of necessary
equipment. Examples include Worker’s Compensation, Fleet Maintenance/Replacement, Information Technology, and Building Maintenance fund. Funds are restricted by policy through the City Council and spent in accordance with the program/equipment they are designated to support.

Trust Funds are used to account for assets held by the City as a trustee age nt for individuals, private
organizations, and other governments. Examples include the City of Concord Retirement System Pension Fund and the Successor Agency Private Purpose Trust Fund.

Subject: Considering acceptance and appropriation of $80,000 in California Automated Permit Processing (CalAPP) Program grant funds from the California Energy Commission to
implement online automated instant Solar Photovoltaic
building permits.

CEQA: Not a “project” under Public Resources Code Section 21065, CEQA Guidelines Sections 15060(c)(3), 15061(b)(3), and/or 15378.

Report in Brief
The City of Concord (City) applied for and was awarded a total of $80,000 in California Automated Permit Processing (CalAPP) Program grant funds from the California Energy Commission (CEC). The grant funds can be used to implement online automated instant Solar Photovoltaic (PV) building permits.

City Council (Council) action is required to appropriate the approved grant funds. Upon approval by Council, staff may begin working on the implementation of the online automated Solar PV building permits. This implementation is mandated by SB379 to be completed, operational, and available to the public by September 30, 2023.

Recommended Action
Accept and appropriate the $80,000 in California Automated Permit Processing (CalAPP) Program grant funds from the California Energy Commission, and make the CEQA determinations as provided in this staff report.

City Council Agenda Report
Agenda Item No. 5.c
August 8, 2023
Background
SB379 went into effect January 1, 2023, requiring all jurisdictions in California to implement online automated instant Solar PV building permits by September 30, 2023.

In support of this mandate, state funding was made available through the CalAPP Program to cover the costs associated with the implementation.

On December 19, 2022, the City applied for CalAPP grant funding for implementation of online automated instant Solar PV building permits. On February 14th, 2023, the CEC notified the City that the CalAPP grant application was approved.

Analysis
The CalAPP grant funds will be used to cover the costs of implementing the permit platform, including ongoing in-house staff costs associated directly with the adoption and maintenance of the platform, ongoing third-party or consultant time associated directly with the adoption and maintenance of the platform, ongoing staff training and education specific to the platform, and any subscription costs for software in support of the platform. If the CalApp grant funds are not approved and appropriated then the City will bear the full costs of the implementation since the implementation is required by state law.

Financial Impact
The estimated cost for implementation of this project is $80,000. The City was awarded a CalAPP grant in the amount of $80,000 from the CEC, as shown in Attachment 1.

This grant covers the entire cost of the project, including reimbursement for the cost of staff time, therefore there is no financial impact to the City.

Environmental Determination
Authorizing the receipt of CalAPP grants funds is not subject to the California Environmental Quality Act pursuant to Public Resources Code Section 21065 and CEQA Guidelines Section 15060(c)(3), because this activity does not constitute a “project” as defined by Section 15378 of the CEQA Guidelines, California Code of Regulations, Title 14, Chapter 3 and pursuant to CEQA Guidelines Section 15061(b)(3) it can be seen with certainty that this activity will not have a significant effect or physical change to the environment.

The City Council Agenda was posted.

Exhibit B
California Automated Permit Processing (CalAPP) Program Terms and Conditions

1. Background and Authority for this Grant

California Senate Bill 129 (2021) included an appropriation to the California Energy Commission (CEC) to support a grant program for cities, counties, or cities and counties to establish online solar permitting.

2. D ocuments Incorporated by Reference and Priority

Incorporated by reference into this agreement are the following documents:

A. Grant Funding Opportunity (GFO) 21-402.

B. Recipient’s application to CalAPP.

As between the incorporated documents and the remainder of this Agreement, the rest of this Agreement takes priority in case of a conflict.

3. B
udget , Invoices, and Payments

a) The CEC is only obligated to reimburse the Recipient for paid costs that are (1) incurred during the Agreement Term; (2) invoiced within the required timeframes of this Agreement; (3) not more than this Agreement’s budget; and (4) reasonable, actual, and allowable expenses under this Agreement.
b) Recipient acknowledges that the funds under this Agreement have a liquidation date of June 30, 2027, a legal timeframe after which the CEC has no authority to pay the funds. In addition, it takes the CEC administrative time to review, approve, work with the Recipient to correct any errors in, and request the State Controller’s Office to pay invoices. Accordingly, Recipient acknowledges that if it does not submit accurate invoices by March 30, 2027, for all amounts due under the Agreement, it risks not receiving payment, and relinquishes all rights to such payments should the CEC not pay it by the liquidation date. Recipient acknowledges that time is of the essence in invoicing by March 30, 2027, for all amounts due under this Agreement.

The Recipient may request payment from the Energy Commission at any time during the term of this Agreement after successful adoption of a qualifying solar permitting platform as verified by the CEC, but no more frequently than monthly. Recipient must use the CAM provided template invoice spreadsheet.

c) If invoicing for in-house staff time, the template invoice spreadsheet must identify the employee’s name, hours worked, and billing rate to be included as a reimbursable expense.

d) Unallowable costs include:
• Software not related to the adoption of a qualifying online, automated permitting platform. • Any costs incurred or activities conducted prior to entering into a grant agreement with the Energy Commission or incurred after the grant agreement has ended.

Report in Brief
The Police Department Generator and Transfer Switch Replacement Project involves replacement of the emergency back-up generator and associated automatic transfer switch (ATS) at the Police Department building, located at 1350 Galindo Street. The existing generator is reaching the end of its service life. The Project underwent a formal

bid process where no bids were received. As authorized when no bids are received, City staff moved forward with soliciting quotes and negotiating a contract to complete the work to ensure this critical project would be completed timely. Specifically, staff reached out and received quotes from (3) contractors for the procurement and installation of the equipment. The lowest quote was received from Vince Sigal Electric, Inc. (VS Electric). After analyses of all quotes, Staff determined that VS Electric is qualified for the scope of work and is able to procure the equipment within a short lead- time of four (4) weeks.

VS Electric has provided a turnkey quote which includes the equipment costs as well as construction, including startup, testing, freight, and installation. Construction is expected for Fall 2023.

Recommended Action
Award a Construction Contract in the not-to-exceed amount of $400,885.20 (base agreement of $334,071 plus staff authority to spend up to a 20% contingency of $66,814.20) to VS Electric for the Police Department Generator and Transfer Switch Replacement Project (Project No. 2653) for the purchase of equipment and installation of emergency back-up generator and associated automatic transfer switch; and authorize the Mayor to execute the contract in a form acceptable to the City Attorney, and make the CEQA determinations as provided in this staff report.

Background
The Police Department Generator and Transfer Switch Replacement Project (Project No. 2653) will replace the 400-amp capacity emergency back-up generator and associated automatic transfer switch, located at the Police Department building at 1350 Galindo Street. The existing generator is reaching the end of its service life, and the newer generator meets lower emissions standards, supporting the City’s goal of reducing greenhouse gas emissions. The backup generator is critical during emergencies and disasters because it hosts the City’s Emergency Operations Center, has evidence stored in refrigerators which could be compromised if power were lost, and runs a 24-7-365 critical safety operation for the community in dispatch and police response.

On July 10, 2022, the automatic transfer switch (ATS) associated with the existing back- up generator at the Police Department building failed. Temporary repairs were made, and data was gathered for a replacement of the automatic transfer switch. It was determined that damage was extensive. The existing automatic transfer switch needed to be disconnected so that a temporary rental ATS could be hooked up to the generator.

The temporary rental ATS has since been hooked up to the generator with an included monthly rental fee, while the procurement process to acquire and install a new generator and associated ATS has been occurring.

Analysis/Procurement Process
On May 11, 2023, the formal bid opening occurred for the Project for procurement and replacement of the generator and associated automatic transfer switch (ATS), and no bids were received. Pursuant to Public Contract Code sections 20166 and 22038(c), since no bids were received, the project may proceed either by negotiated contract.

In May 2023, City Staff reached out to multiple contractors to provide quotes for the procurement and installation of the generator and associated automatic transfer switch.

Quotes were received from three (3) contractors. The lowest quote was received from Vince Sigal Electric, Inc. (VS Electric). After analyses of all quotes, Staff determined that VS Electric is qualified for the scope of work and possesses an appropriate and valid contractor’s license and is not on any debarred list. VS Electric is registered with the Department of Industrial Relations as required by state law. Staff recommends the construction contract be awarded to VS Electric. VS Electric is able to procure the equipment within a short lead-time of four (4) weeks.

Financial Impact
The current project budget, which consists of $611,000 from Measure V Revenue (Fund 490) and is sufficient to fully fund this purchase, the total costs for construction with contingency, construction management, and staff time.

Environmental Determination
Pursuant to Public Resources Code Section 21065, CEQA Guidelines Sections 15060(c), 15061(b)(2), 15061(b)(3), and/or 15378, award of this contract is not subject to environmental review under the California Environmental Quality Act (CEQA) of 1970, as amended, as it will not result in a direct or reasonably foreseeable indirect physical change in the environment. In the alternative, the purchase and installation of a generator and ATS unit is considered categorically exempt from further environmental review pursuant to the California Environmental Quality Act (CEQA) per CEQA Guidelines Section 15301 - Existing Facilities, 15302 - Replacement of Reconstruction, 15303 – New Construction or Conversion of Small Structures, and/or 15304 – Minor Alterations to Land. No unusual circumstances exist and none of the exceptions under CEQA Guidelines Section 15300.2 apply. This determination reflects the City’s independent judgment and analysis. The Notice of Exemption for the project will be filed with the County Clerk’s office following the City Council award of the Construction Contract.

Interests and Experience
Question applies to multiple boards
Please state your reason for applying, including qualifications for this position:

I've always had an eye for civic engagement, and an interest in serving my community in any capacity. I briefly served on Lafayette's Environmental Task Force, have been involved with their city council, and volunteered with community groups (such as CERT: Community Emergency Response Team) among others. I've been involved in Partisan Political Campaigns, and those outreach efforts. I believe my technology background, my youth, my analytical approach and willingness to listen and learn will contribute to any commission. I feel qualified in that I have a willingness to learn, provide input from my perspective, help with outreach efforts to the community or youth as a technology professional and help in any organizing or infrastructure or outreach needs for the commission/committee. I'm available, approachable and open minded.

Question applies to multiple boards
Describe prior service on a board, commission, or any other community service or public body, indicate agency and explain what significant contributions you made:

Environmental Task Force of Lafayette, CA - I did not bring any knowledge but did help in taking on projects that either fell through or were not picked up. I volunteered with CERT and local political campaigns where my contributions were based on organizing, planning, and executing events. I don't sit idly, I will pick my own takes if none are assigned - that is to say, I will take on whatever is needed to move our commission or city forward.

Cody Keller

Page 47 of 130 ends

Technology Professional with a decade of experience involving delicate or confidential situations and consistent documentation and managing a small team and small budget. Throughout my career, I've been put through difficult scenarios, I've spent years on documentation and much of my work has involved bringing various groups (departments, personnel, or high-level execs) together to complete a project or task. I spent years as a laborer in both masonry and landscaping and have a huge appreciation for the work of trades. I've been involved in numerous political campaigns and organizations whether chairing an organization or knocking out tasks because they had to get done but have always kept an open mind through conversations with peers. I've spent years off and on volunteering with the Contra Costa & Solano Food Bank, CERT (for local Lamorinda Events), and City of Lafayette as well as Young Professionals of Lafayette (sub-organization of Chamber of Commerce) . I bring communication, technology, outreach, and organizational skills.

Question applies to Bicycle and Pedestrian Advisory Committee Please describe your interest and experience in cycling and other alternative modes of transportation.
100% of the reason we chose to live in Concord over Martinez, Pleasant Hill, Walnut Creek and Lafayette... the city is generally walkable and our neighborhood specifically is walkable to BART as well as downtown or by bike. I have a road bike and have been more active riding since the pandemic on trails (not confident enough for streets yet) and walk all around town whether from the Viranda to downtown or our house to BART, etc.

Why would you like to participate in the Concord Community Academy? Yes, seems like a no-brainier to inform the community and be transparent or have the opportunity to learn about other functions.
