ANNUAL WORKSHOP ON CITY COUNCIL PRIORITIES
Mayor Nakamura opened the meeting and introduced City Manager Valerie Barone who provided introductions. Director of Public Works Kit Jory and Director of Information Technology Greg Taylor led an ice breaker, then City Manager Barone reviewed the Mission Statement, workshop ground rules, meeting agenda, and Council Norms.

It was the consensus of Council to add clarifying language to the Council Norms encouraging Councilmembers who know about an upcoming event in a district of another Councilmember or who are contacted by a resident or business from another district to notify the Councilmember representing that district.

Department Heads presented briefings on significant assignments and challenges for FY 2026-

27. Following questions and comments from the City Council, City Manager Barone reviewed the Council’s Priority Areas of Focus and the FY 2026-27 Work Program.

Mayor Nakamura recessed the meeting at 11:56 a.m. The meeting resumed at 12:17 p.m.

City Council Minutes March 21, 2026
2 Following questions and comments from the City Council, Mayor Nakamura opened a public comment period, and upon receiving no public comment, closed the public comment period.

Following discussion, the Council confirmed the following Tier I priorities for the organization for Fiscal Year 2026-27: These are the Council’s top priority goals. The organization must stay focused on these, and the Council expects them to be accomplished. • New City Manager: Council and the organization will provide effective support and onboarding to the new City Manager, enabling a successful first year in the role. • Economic Development Strategic Plan: Implement Year 1 Economic Development Strategic Plan activities, which include: exploring/adopting a Property & Business Improvement District for the downtown; creating an economic advisory group that will meet at least twice a year to advise staff on how City efforts can support improvements in the local economy; proactively seek the location or expansion of target industries in the City; and coordinate efforts to market Concord with the private sector to establish a “brand” using events, Visit Concord, and enhanced appearance, safety, and other quality of life efforts.
• Unfunded Infrastructure Needs Funding: Continue to make progress identifying funding to address the annual infrastructure investment shortfall, currently estimated at $25 million annually. • Implement Various Housing Element Mandates: To ensure continued compliance with the City’s state certified housing element, complete implementation of four major housing element policies already underway, begin implementation of nine major additional housing element policies.
• Concord Naval Weapons Station Development: Make significant progress on negotiations with the US Navy and Master Developer on the Economic Development Conveyance Memorandum of Agreement (MOA) and work with the Master Developer and significantly advance the specific plan, infrastructure planning, and environmental permits.

The City Council confirmed the following Tier II priority, noting that this is an important goal for the Council; however, the Council recognizes that it will only be addressed if staff has sufficient time, and if doing so does not detract from the Tier I priorities or the City’s established work program. • Working with a Mayor-appointed ad-hoc committee, evaluate the feasibility of expanding, relocating, or replacing the City’s library. The assessment will include, at a minimum, costs to build and operate, potential locations (including CNWS and other sites), funding opportunities (including grants), project timelines, and required steps. The report prepared by staff with the ad- hoc committee’s involvement will be shared with the full Council for review at a public meeting and determination if any action is appropriate.

The City Council was briefed on the organization’s work program for Fiscal Year 2026-27 and added the following tasks assigned to the Council Committee on Housing and Economic Development, with the understanding that they will not take priority over existing work program assignments:
• An evaluation of the impacts and process for obtaining the State designation of Pro-Housing for Concord.
• An evaluation of why affordable senior housing is not occurring in Concord and what steps the City could take to encourage it.

Subject: Considering adoption of a Resolution authorizing execution of Cal OES Form 130, Designation of Applicant’s Agent
Resolution for Non-State Agencies, designating three
authorized agents to act on behalf of the City of Concord for the purpose of obtaining federal and/or state financial disaster assistance and related existing or future grant programs.

Report in Brief
The State of California Governor’s Office of Emergency Services (Cal OES) requires designation of specific staff to act on behalf of the City of Concord to request federal and/or state financial disaster assistance and related existing or future grant programs.

Adoption of Cal OES Form 130, Designation of Applicant’s Agent Resolution for Non- State Agencies (Cal OES Form 130), designating the City Manager, Assistant City Manager, and Finance Director meets this requirement. Designations are in effect for three years following the date of approval. The City of Concord’s current Designation of Applicant’s Agent Resolution expired on April 11, 2026.

Recommended Action
Adopt a Resolution authorizing execution of Cal OES Form 130, Designation of Applicant’s Agent Resolution for Non-State Agencies, designating three authorized

Agenda Item No. 5.b
April 14, 2026
agents to act on behalf of the City of Concord for the purpose of obtaining federal and/or state financial disaster assistance and related existing or future grant programs to file with Cal OES.

Background
The Disaster Relief Act of 1974, PL 93-28, as amended by the Robert T. Stafford Disaster Relief and Emergency Assistance Act, PL 100-707, creates the official authority for Federal disaster response activities, especially as they relate to Federal Emergency Management Agency (FEMA) programs and services. The Act defines what constitutes an “emergency” and a “major disaster” and authorizes the President to issue disaster declarations, which trigger federal assistance programs, including financial aid for individuals and local governments affected by disasters. The Act also authorizes the President to administer grants to states for the mitigation, preparation and revitalization of emergency plans.

Analysis
Cal OES Form 130, authorizes the positions listed to provide assurances and execute agreements for and on behalf of the City of Concord for the purpose of obtaining federal disaster assistance and related grant programs.

Adopting and filing Cal OES Form 130 will allow the City of Concord to process federal and/or state financial assistance in the form of disaster reimbursement and/or related grants for a period of three years. After that date, a new resolution will need to be adopted, reconfirming or changing the designations, and refiled with the State of California.

Should the City Council not make the designations, the City of Concord would still be able to apply for federal financial assistance and grants in the case of a disaster; however, the funds would not be awarded until a Cal OES Form 130 is executed and filed with Cal OES.

Financial Impact
The State requires this documentation for the City to receive federal financial disaster assistance and related grants.

Environmental Determination
Pursuant to the California Environmental Quality Act of 1970, Public Resources Code Section 21000, et. seq., as amended and implementing State CEQA Guidelines, Title 14, Chapter 3 of the California Code of Regulations (collectively “CEQA”), the Council finds this action does not constitute a “project” within the meaning of Public Resources Code Section 21065, 14 Cal. Code Regs. Section 15060(c)(2) and/or 15378 because it has no potential for resulting in either a direct physical change in the environment, or a reasonably foreseeable indirect physical change in the environment. Even if this action did constitute a “project” under CEQA, it is exempt under 14 Cal. Code Regs. Section

Section 15061(b)(3), excluding projects where “it can be seen with certainty that there is no possibility that the activity in question may have a significant effect on the environment….” Accordingly, no further environmental review is warranted.

Cal OES Form 130 Instructions
A Designation of Applicant’s Agent Resolution for Non-State Agencies is required of all Applicants to be eligible to receive funding. A new resolution must be submitted if a previously submitted resolution is older than three (3) years from the last date of approval, is invalid, or has not been submitted.

When completing the Cal OES Form 130, Applicants should fill in the blanks on page s 1
and 2. The blanks are to be filled in as follows:

Resolution Section:

Governing Body: This is the group responsible for appointing and approving the Authorized Agents.

Examples include: Board of Directors, City Council, Board of Supervisors, Board of Education, etc.

Name of Applicant: The public entity established under the laws of the State of California.

Examples include: School District, Office of Education, City, County or Non -profit
agency that has applied for the grant, such as: City of San Diego, Sacramento County, Burbank Unified School District, Napa County Office of Education, University Southern California.

Authorized Agent: These are the individuals that are authorized by the Governing Body to engage with the Federal Emergency Management Agency and the California Governor’s Office of Emergency Services regarding grants for which they have applied.

There are two ways of completing this section:

1. Titles Only: The titles of the Authorized Agents should be entered here, not their names. This allows the document to remain valid if an Authorized Agent leaves the position and is replaced by another individual. If “Titles Only” is the chosen method, this document must be accompanied by either a cover letter naming the Authorized Agents by name and title, or the Cal OES AA Names document. The supporting document can be completed by any authorized person within the Agency (e.g., administrative assistant, the Authorized Agent, secretary to the Director). It does not require the Governing Body’s signature.

2. Names and Titles: If the Governing Body so chooses, the names and titles of the Authorized Agents would be listed. A new Cal OES Form 130 will be required if any of the Authorized Agents are replaced, leave the position listed on the document, or their title changes.

Checking Universal or Disaster-Specific Box: A Universal resolution is effective for all past disasters and for those declared up to three (3) years following the date of approval. Upon expiration it is no longer effective for new disasters, but it remains in effect for disasters declared prior to expiration. It remains effective until the disaster goes through closeout unless it is superseded by a newer resolution.

Governing Body Representative: These are the names and titles of the approving Board Members.

Examples include: Chairman of the Board, Director, Superintendent, etc. The names and titles cannot be one of the designated Authorized Agents. A minimum of three (3) approving board members must be listed. If less than three are present, meeting minutes must be attached in order to verify a quorum was met.

Certification Section:

Name and Title: This is the individual in attendance who recorded the creation and approval of this resolution.

If a person holds two positions (such as City Manager and Secretary to the Board) and the City Manager is to be listed as an Authorized Agent, then that person could sign the document as Secretary to the Board (not City Manager) to eliminate “Self-Certification.”

Report in Brief
The City Council adopts its regular meeting schedule annually by resolution, and the schedule does not include meetings in July. Staff identified the potential need to present an item to the City Council in late July, when no regular meetings are currently scheduled.

Background
On December 2, 2025, the City Council adopted Resolution No. 25-47, which amended Policy and Procedure No. 2 and established both the regular meeting day and the number of Council meetings per month for 2026.

MCK successfully completed paving rehabilitation recently on the Residential Pavement Maintenance Phase C (Concord Boulevard, Project Nos. 2606 & 2618), and Galindo Street paving (Project No. 2452).

Construction Management Task Order
In October 2025, in conformance with the City’s purchasing policies, staff issued a Request for Proposal (RFP) to Avila Project Management (APM) under the Master Service Agreement (MSA) to provide a proposal for construction management and inspection services for the Project.

APM has extensive experience in managing construction of similar pavement rehabilitation projects in the Bay Area. They provided construction management and inspection services on City of Concord and City of Walnut Creek projects and have already performed a constructability review of this Project.

Staff and APM negotiated the scope of work and cost for the services and agreed upon a base fee amount of $260,565 as fair and reasonable compensation for the services needed to provide construction management for the Project. As this Task Order with is over $200,000, Council approval is required (See Attachment 4 for Task Order).

City Council Agenda Report
Agenda Item No. 5.d
April 14, 2026
Project Stabilization Agreement
On September 13, 2016, Council approved a Citywide Project Stabilization Agreement with the Contra Costa Building & Construction Trades Council for City projects with a construction contract valued at over $750,000. This Project will be subject to the requirements of the Project Stabilization Agreement as the estimated construction costs exceeded $750,000. The prospective bidders for the Project were made aware of this requirement as part of the construction contract. MCK and their subcontractors have submitted the required forms and agreement to be bound.

Financial Impact/Budget Transfer
The current total budget for the Project is $1,500,000, funded primarily by Gas Tax (Fund 266). There are insufficient funds currently to award the construction contract with MCK plus a 10% contingency for contract change orders, as well as the Task Order with APM. A budget transfer of $1,150,000 from the completed Residential Pavement Maintenance Phase E Project is recommended to fully fund the Project (Fund 475 – Measure J Local Funds, Project No. 2621).

Environmental Determination
Pursuant to the California Environmental Quality Act (CEQA) of 1970, Public Resources Code Section 21000, et. seq., as amended and implementing State CEQA Guidelines, Title 14, Chapter 3 of the California Code of Regulations (collectively “CEQA”), the award of the contract, a budget transfer, and approval of Task Order do not constitute a “project” within the meaning of Public Resources Code Section 21065, 14 Cal Code Regs. Sections 15060(c), 15273, 15378, as it has no potential for resulting in a direct or reasonably foreseeable indirect physical change in the environment and/or the activities consist of creation of government funding mechanisms or other government fiscal activities which do not constitute a “project”. Even if Council action on this item did constitute a project under CEQA, it falls within the “common sense” exemption set forth in 14 Cal. Code Regs. Section 15061(b)(3), excluding projects where “it can be seen with certainty that there is no possibility that the activity in question may have a significant effect on the environment.”
In the alternative, Council action on this item is exempt under CEQA Guidelines Sections 15301 – Existing Facilities, 15302 – Replacement and Reconstruction, 15303 – New Construction or Conversion of Small Structures, and/or 15304 – Minor Alterations to Land, as it involves pavement rehabilitation of an existing roadway, installation of curb ramps to meet accessibility standards, minor curb and gutter repairs, striping improvements, and traffic signal push button work. No unusual circumstances exist and none of the exceptions under CEQA Guidelines Section 15300.2 applies. This determination reflects the City’s independent judgement and analysis. The Notice of Exemption will be filed with the County Clerk’s office following the Council action on this item.

City Council Agenda Report
Agenda Item No. 5.d
April 14, 2026
Public Contact
The City Council Agenda was posted. Additionally, staff conducted outreach to property management at both the Veranda and Willows Shopping Centers indicating that notification letters would be distributed close to start of construction and discussed the most appropriate hours for nighttime paving (10:00 p.m. to 6:00 a.m.) to minimize impacts on businesses. Staff also coordinated planned detours with CalTrans due to the Interstate 680 off- and on-ramps at Burnett Avenue being impacted by the project.

Report in Brief
The Residential Pavement Maintenance Phase F Project (Project Nos. 2611 & 2624) (Project) will perform pavement maintenance in the Monte Gardens and Dana Estates neighborhoods (generally north of Clayton Way and west of Lindero Drive), and the East Concord neighborhood bounded by Concord Boulevard, West Street, and Clayton Way. See descriptions and attached maps (Attachment 1) for location and limits.

This is the second of two phases of work for the Residential Pavement Maintenance Project Phase F. Phase 1, the concrete improvement work, is currently under construction and expected to finish by end of May 2026. Phase 2, the subject of this report, is pavement maintenance work in the same area. The Project was previously divided into concrete work and pavement work to improve efficiency and obtain more competitive pricing.

The pavement maintenance work (Phase 2) portion of the Project has been designed, competitively bid (Attachment 2 for Bid Summary), and is now ready for construction contract award. Construction is expected to begin early June 2026, with completion by October 2026, weather permitting. The construction contract with Goodfellow Bros, California LLC (Goodfellow) is attached (Attachment 3).

Recommended Action

1. Award a construction contract in the amount $4,607,533.60 to Goodfellow Bros, California, LLC for the Residential Pavement Maintenance Phase F Project located in the Monte Gardens, Dana Estates, and East Concord neighborhoods (City Project Nos. 2611 & 2624); authorizing staff to utilize the available project contingency for contract change orders up to 10% of the contract amount; and authorizing the Mayor to execute the contract in a form acceptable to the City Attorney; and

2. Approval of a budget transfer and appropriation totaling $2,625,000 from the Residential Phase E Project (Project Nos. 2613 & 2621) and Pavement Rehabilitation Project No. 9 (Project No. 2528) (Funds 263, 400, 407, 475, and 490); and

3. Authorizing the City Engineer to accept improvements upon completion of the Residential Pavement Maintenance Phase F Project and directing the City Clerk to file a Notice of Completion; and

4. Make the CEQA determinations as reflected in this report.

Background
On June 25, 2024, the City Council adopted the Two-Year CIP Budget for Fiscal Years (FY) 2024/2025 and FY 2025/2026, which approved and appropriated $6,500,000 in funding for the construction of the Project.

On March 25, 2025, the City Council approved a $1,980,000 budget transfer and appropriation from Residential Pavement Maintenance Phase F Project (Project No. 2624) to the Residential Phase E Project (Project Nos. 2613 & 2621) due a delay as a result of Contra Costa Water District (CCWD) performing work in the roadway and to meet Measure V expenditure deadlines. Now that the Phase E project is complete, staff is requesting to allocate the remaining funds from the Phase E Project back to Phase F.

Additionally, Pavement Rehabilitation Project No. 9 (Project No. 2528), originally included work on Granada Drive and surrounding streets; however, this project was also delayed due to ongoing work by CCWD. The area impacted by CCWD has now been moved to this project, Phase F, and also needs a corresponding budget transfer and appropriation to cover the paving costs for that area.

On September 10, 2025, staff presented at a Bicycle Pedestrian Advisory Committee meeting on Phase F project’s improvements for bicyclists and pedestrians. On September 3, 2025, a community meeting was held, informing residents of the Project’s upcoming construction and its impacts, the notification of work processes, and to obtain feedback from residents. Residents (total of five attended) were primarily concerned about driveway access during construction, and requested the existing valley gutters with steep slopes be replaced to prevent the “bottoming out” of vehicles. After analyzing the vehicular scraping issues, additional concrete valley gutter replacements were added to the project scope, which are being performed as part of the concrete work contract.

On January 27, 2026, the City Council awarded a construction contract in the amount of $1,256,805 to Spencon Construction, Inc. for the concrete improvement work, and approved a Task Order No. 6 with UNICO Engineering in the not-to-exceed amount of $732,145.03 to provide construction management, inspection, materials testing, and related services for both phases of the Project.

Analysis/Procurement Process
The Project was advertised for construction bids as required by state law and City policy. The Engineer’s Estimate for the Total Bid was $5,800,000. Bids were opened on March 5, 2026. Eight (8) bids were received in the amount ranging from $4,607,533.60 to $5,424,979.20. The lowest bid was received from Goodfellow Bros., California LLC (Goodfellow) of Livermore, CA. who submitted a responsive and responsible bid.

Goodfellow has an appropriate and valid contractor’s license and satisfactory work references. Most recently, Goodfellow successfully completed the Monument Blvd Pavement Rehabilitation Project (Project No. 2581).

Project Stabilization Agreement
On September 13, 2016, Council approved a Citywide Project Stabilization Agreement with the Contra Costa Building & Construction Trades Council for City projects with a construction contract valued at over $750,000. The Project will be

Agenda Item No. 5.e
April 14, 2026
subject to the requirements of the Project Stabilization Agreement as the estimated construction costs exceeded $750,000. The prospective bidders for the Project were made aware of this requirement as part of the construction contract. Goodfellow and their subcontractors have submitted the required agreement to be bound to the terms of the Citywide Project Stabilization Agreement.

Financial Impact/Budget Transfer Required
The current remaining budget for the Residential Pavement Maintenance Phase F Project is $2,657,000 (Fund 490 – Measure V funds). There are insufficient funds in the Phase F project (Project Nos. 2611 & 2624) to award the construction contract with Goodfellow and cover 10% contingency for contract change orders. A budget transfer in the total amount of $2,625,000 is needed from the completed Residential Phase E Project (Project No. 2613 & 2621) and Pavement Rehabilitation Project No. 9 (Project No. 2528); as follows:
• $250,000 from Project No. 2528 (Fund 407, Measure V)
• $1,235,000 from Project No. 2613 ($340,000 of Fund 263 – Gas Tax, $470,000 of Fund 475 – Measure J, $425,000 of Fund 490 – Measure V); and
• $1,140,000 from Project No. 2621 ($740,000 of Fund 400 - General Fund, $400,000 of Fund 490 - Measure V).

Now that the Residential Pavement Maintenance Phase E Project are complete, all remaining funds that were previously transferred from Phase F are being returned to the Project. Additionally, the portion of Pavement Rehabilitation Project No. 9 that was deferred and moved to Phase F due to work being performed by CCWD in the roadway also requires a budget transfer and appropriation.

Approval of the above budget transfers will fully fund the construction contract with Goodfellow and cover the 10% contingency needed for contract change orders.

Environmental Determination
Pursuant to the California Environmental Quality Act (CEQA) of 1970, Public Resources Code Section 21000, et. seq., as amended and implementing State CEQA Guidelines, Title 14, Chapter 3 of the California Code of Regulations (collectively “CEQA”), the award of the contract along with the approval of a budget transfer and appropriation of funds do not constitute a “project” within the meaning of Public Resources Code Section 21065, 14 Cal Code Regs. Sections 15060(c) and 15378, as it has no potential for resulting in a direct or reasonably foreseeable indirect physical change in the environment and/or the activities consist of creation of government funding mechanisms or other government fiscal activities which do not constitute a “project”. Even if Council action on this item did constitute a project under CEQA, it falls within the “common sense” exemption set forth in 14 Cal. Code Regs. Section 15061(b)(3), excluding

projects where “it can be seen with certainty that there is no possibility that the activity in question may have a significant effect on the environment” and is statutorily exempt pursuant to 14 Cal. Code Regs. Section 15273 as the activity consists of the creation of government funding mechanisms or other government fiscal activities which to not constitute a “project”.

In the alternative, Council action on this item is exempt under CEQA Guidelines Sections 15301 – Existing Facilities, 15302 – Replacement and Reconstruction, 15303 – New Construction or Conversion of Small Structures, and/or 15304 – Minor Alterations to Land, as it involves pavement maintenance of an existing roadway, and striping improvements. No unusual circumstances exist and none of the exceptions under CEQA Guidelines Section 15300.2 applies. Accordingly, no further environmental review is necessary. This determination reflects the City’s independent judgement and analysis. The Notice of Exemption will be filed with the County Clerk’s office following the Council action on this item.

Subject: Considering adoption of a Resolution supporting the issuance of multifamily housing revenue bonds by the County of Contra Costa to finance the rehabilitation of Lakeside Apartments, an existing 124-unit affordable housing complex located at 1897 Oakmead Drive in Concord, California.

CEQA: Not a project/exempt pursuant to CEQA Guidelines
Sections 15060(c), 15061(b)(3), 15273, 15378 and/or Public Resources Code Section 21065.

Report in Brief
Lakeside Apartments, located at 1897 Oakmead Drive in Concord, is an existing 124- unit affordable multifamily rental property. It is owned and operated by Resources for Community Development (RCD) (“Developer”). The Lakeside Apartments provides rental housing opportunities to extremely low-, very low-, and low-income households (20 – 55% Area Median Income (AMI)) (Attachment 2), and includes a mix of one-, two-, and three-bedroom units.

In 2025, RCD1, successfully applied to refinance and resyndicate its tax credit financing through the State’s tax-exempt bond and Low-Income Housing Tax Credit (LIHTC) programs to rehabilitate the property. The state bonds may be issued by a conduit municipal bond issuer, such as the County.
1 Lakeside Recap L.P. is an affiliate of RCD and is listed as the applicant on state financing application.

City Council Agenda Report
Agenda Item No. 5.f
April 14, 2026
The Developer has requested that the County issue multifamily housing revenue bonds in an amount not to exceed $30 million to rehabilitate the Lakeside Apartments (“Project”). Before the bonds can be issued by the County, the Board of Supervisors must take action to specifically authorize the sale of the bonds, which is anticipated to occur in May 2026. While the County will be issuing the bonds, the City is required to confirm via resolution that it consents to the County fulfilling the role of bond issuer for this project since it is located in Concord.

Recommended Action
Adopt a Resolution supporting the issuance of multifamily housing revenue bonds by the County of Contra Costa to finance the rehabilitation of Lakeside Apartments, an existing 124-unit affordable housing complex located at 1897 Oakmead Drive in Concord, California (Attachment 1).

Background
Lakeside Apartments, located at 1897 Oakmead Drive, is an existing affordable residential rental community that provides rental housing opportunities to households with incomes that range from 20% to 55% of AMI (Attachment 2). The complex consists of 124 units comprised of 59 one-bedroom units, 53 two-bedroom units, and 12 three- bedroom units within eight two-story buildings on 8.81 acres, including part of the private Keller Lake. The Lakeside Apartments is located within ½ mile of BART and other amenities near Downtown Concord. Common area amenities include twelve laundry rooms, a large rental office, a recreation room, two gated pool areas, and the private lake.

In July 2005, the City loaned $3,716,945 of local affordable housing funds to RCD for the acquisition and rehabilitation of Lakeside Apartments. The City’s loan agreement requires that the property be affordable to households earning 30- 60% of AMI (although Lakeside’s State funding sources cap the maximum allowable household income to 55% AMI). These restrictions are in place for the 55-year loan term and are currently set to expire in 2060.

In June 2025, the City Council (“Council”) approved an amendment to the Loan Agreement between the City and RCD for the Lakeside Apartments to re-subordinate the City’s financing, allowing RCD and its affiliates to resyndicate tax credits and apply for bond financing to facilitate a comprehensive rehabilitation and ensure its continued long-term affordability. The State approved the financing in December 2025. Before the bonds can be issued, the Board of Supervisors must take action to specifically authorize the sale of the bonds, which is anticipated to occur in May 2026. Prior to this action by the County, the City must adopt a resolution consenting to the County’s role as the bond issuer.

In February 2026, as a conduit municipal bonds issuer, the County requested that the City support the issuance of the County bonds in an amount not to exceed $30 million

City Council Agenda Report
Agenda Item No. 5.f
April 14, 2026
for the Project. Pursuant to California Health and Safety Code Section 52075, the City of Concord also has authority to issue these bonds; however, the City does not currently issue its own multifamily affordable housing bonds nor have the financing structure in place to do so.

If Council approves the recommended action, the County will have the necessary City approvals for the Board of Supervisors hearing to consider the bond issuance.

Following the Board of Supervisors’ approval, which is anticipated in May 2026, RCD will be able to move forward with financing the comprehensive rehabilitation of Lakeside Apartments. Council’s action is essential to complete the financing needed for this rehabilitation and to maintain the long-term affordability of Lakeside Apartments.

Analysis
Resyndication of Tax Credits
Resyndication allows a developer to secure a new allocation of LIHTCs, which extends the property's commitment to affordable housing and facilitates comprehensive property rehabilitation. The resyndication process leads to a new 55-year extended-use agreement, whereby the affordability restrictions and the loan repayment period for Lakeside Apartments would be extended. Resyndication would ensure continued affordable housing for the property for another 21 years beyond the current agreement, or until 2081.

California Tax-Exempt Bond Financing
The California Debt Limit Allocation Committee (CDLAC) administers the State’s tax- exempt bond financing program which allows developers to compete for a bond allocation to help support both new construction and the rehabilitation of affordable housing. Federal law provides that the tax-exempt bonds can be used in conjunction with receiving 4% in affordable housing tax credits. The bond program is extremely competitive, and a bond allocation is difficult to secure.

Multifamily Housing Revenue Bonds
The County, through its Department of Conservation and Development, serves as a conduit municipal bonds issuer and operates a multifamily mortgage revenue bond financing program to increase or preserve the supply of affordable rental housing available to low- and very low-income households. This program may be implemented within the unincorporated areas of the County, as well as in cities that have agreed to allow the County to operate the program within their jurisdiction. The County is authorized to issue multifamily housing revenue notes and bonds pursuant to Section 52075 of the California Health and Safety Code.

Expected Rehabilitation of the Property
The County has been requested by the Developer to issue multifamily housing revenue bonds in an amount not to exceed $30 million for the Project. The County bonds will help provide funding for a comprehensive rehabilitation of the Lakeside Apartments.

City Council Agenda Report
Agenda Item No. 5.f
April 14, 2026
This will enable RCD to address all major building systems and electrify unit heating systems, amongst other items.

The property’s rehabilitation is anticipated to include (but is not limited to):
• upgrading units to current accessibility codes
• roof reinforcement and/or replacement
• installation of solar panels
• upgrading the electrical infrastructure
• converting unit gas wall furnaces to unit electric and energy efficient heat pumps • replacing waste lines
• installing new laundry facilities
• increased security measures
• new paint throughout the property
Alternatives
Council could choose not to issue a resolution in support of the County’s issuance of multifamily housing revenue bonds. However, the operation of Lakeside Apartments as an affordable housing project could be jeopardized, as the City’s support is required for the County to issue the bonds and to ensure the long-term affordability of Lakeside Apartments.

Financial Impact
This action has no fiscal impact to the City. The bonds, to be issued by the County for the Project, will be the sole responsibility of the Borrower, and the City will have no financial, legal, moral obligation, liability, or responsibility for the repayment of the bonds. All financing documents with respect to the issuance of the bonds will contain clear disclaimers that the bonds are not obligations of the City or the State of California but are to be paid for solely from funds provided by the Borrower.

As an existing affordable housing development, Lakeside Apartments is already exempted from paying property taxes by the State Board of Equalization and the Contra Costa County Assessor’s Office. The approval of this bond issuance does not affect the tax-exemption status.

Environmental Determination
Pursuant to the California Environmental Quality Act (CEQA) of 1970, Public Resources Code Section 21000, et. seq., as amended and implementing State CEQA Guidelines, Title 14, Chapter 3 of the California Code of Regulations (collectively “CEQA”), Council’s support of the County bond issuance does not constitute a “project” within the

meaning of Public Resources Code Section 21065, 14 Cal Code Regs. Sections 15060(c) and 15378, as it has no potential for resulting in a direct or reasonably foreseeable indirect physical change in the environment. Even if Council action on this item did constitute a project under CEQA, it falls within the “common sense” exemption set forth in 14 Cal. Code Regs.

Code Regs. Section 15273 as the activity consists of the creation of government funding mechanisms or other government fiscal activities which to not constitute a “project”.

In the alternative, the rehabilitation of the building is categorically exempt pursuant to CEQA Guidelines Sections 15301 (Existing Facilities), 15302 (Replacement and Reconstruction), 15303 (New Construction or Conversion of Small Structures), and/or 15304 (Minor Alterations to Land) because among other things, it involves the rehabilitation of existing buildings upgrading of existing systems. No unusual circumstances are present and none of the exceptions under CEQA Guidelines Section 15300.2 applies. Accordingly, no further environmental review is warranted. This determination reflects the City’s independent judgement and analysis.

Background
On June 28, 2022, the City Council (Council) adopted the Capital Improvement Program (CIP) Budget for Fiscal Years (FY) 2023 and 2024, that provided for the design and construction of the Project.

The transportation offices were initially to be constructed in an unused portion of the existing carpenter shop and sewer offices in the Public Works Administration building in the Corporation Yard. Preliminary design of the site was completed in May 2023, when the project was advertised for bids. Bids were received on June 1, 2023, ranging from $1,098,700 to $1,280,000, well above the original budget of $575,000. Several factors contributed to the increased construction cost including the age of the existing building, changes to the use of the existing space, and additional requirements needed to meet current building codes. On June 27, 2023, the City Council rejected all bids and directed staff to evaluate alternatives such as a modular building.

After reviewing available options, Public Works and Engineering determined the best solution was to construct a new facility to house both the transportation offices for staff and a TMC. It was also determined that modular construction was not a viable delivery method for several reasons including restrictions in the Concord Municipal Code on design build procurement and requirements related to off-site construction in the City’s Project Stabilization Agreement.

This new solution involves co-locating the TMC, staff offices, and signal Shop with testing bay will improve the communication and overall efficiency of the Transportation Division. On May 28, 2024, the City Council awarded a Professional Services Agreement with Lowney Architecture for the design of the new building which began in June 2024 and completed in September 2025.

The Project was initially advertised on October 2, 2025, and bids were opened on November 6, 2025. One (1) bid was received in the amount of $1,714,000 and there were several concerns related to the sole bid, including but not limited to, the lack of demonstrated relevant experience, omission of major subcontractors and potential scope of work, and ability to agree to be bound by the City’s Project Stabilization

City Council Agenda Report
Agenda Item No. 5.g
April 14, 2026
Agreement. On December 2, 2025, the City Council rejected the bid and directed staff to re-advertise the Project.

Analysis/Procurement Process
Construction Contract
The Project was readvertised for construction bids as required by state law and City policy. Bids were opened on February 26, 2026, at 2:00 p.m. Four (4) bids were received in the amount ranging from $3,135,000.00 to $3,923,905.00. The Engineer’s Estimate for the Basis of Award was $1,750,000. The significant cost increase from the Engineer’s estimate to the lowest responsive bidder was due to several factors including continued material and labor cost escalations, higher contractor and market risk pricing, and associated building system details and materials.

At bid opening, CWS Construction Group, Inc. of Novato, CA was the apparent low bidder. A summary of the bids is as follows:

Engineers Estimate $1,750,000.00
Bid Schedule Base Bid Total
CWS Construction Group, Inc $3,135,000.00
Giant Construction, Inc. $3,449,000.00
Rubicon Builders $3,637,900.00
Mar Con Builder, Inc. $3,923,905.00
On March 3, 2026, CWS Construction Group Inc. (CWS), the apparent low bidder, submitted a letter requesting to have their bid withdrawn. CWS provided written notice within five working days after opening of bids, indicating a mistake on the bid form--and not due to carelessness or an error in judgment in inspecting the site of the work or in reading the plans or specifications--was discovered that caused their bid to be materially different than what was intended for their proposal. Staff recommends providing relief for CWS and accepting their withdrawal as it is in the best interest of the City.

Giant Construction, Inc., the second lowest bidder, submitted a responsible and responsive bid. Staff completed an analysis of Giant Construction Inc’s bid, determining that this Contractor, along with its subcontractors, possesses appropriate and valid licenses, and are not on any debarred lists. Giant Construction, Inc. is registered with the Department of Industrial Relations as required by Senate Bill 854.

Project Stabilization Agreement
On September 13, 2016, the City Council approved a Citywide Project Stabilization Agreement with the Contra Costa Building & Construction Trades Council for City projects with a construction contract valued at over $750,000. The Project is subject to the requirements of the Project Stabilization Agreement as the estimated construction costs exceeded $750,000. The prospective bidders for this Project were made aware of this construction contract requirement. Giant Construction, Inc. and their subcontractors have submitted the required agreement to be bound to the Citywide Project Stabilization Agreement.

Financial Impact
The project budget is currently $2,325,000.00, consisting of Fund 630 – Building Maintenance Fund and Fund 490 – Measure V Projects. There are insufficient funds to award the construction contract, provide for a 10% construction contingency, provide for construction management, inspection and testing services, and staff oversight; therefore, $2,700,000.00 in budget transfers and new appropriations are required to fully fund the project.

Staff recommends transferring and appropriating funds from the following projects:

Fund Project
Number
Project Name Budget
Transfer
Amount
490 PJ2562 Pavement Maintenance Zone 4Q $200,000.00
630 PJ2592 Building Maintenance $500,000.00
407 PJ2581 Monument Blvd Pavement Rehab $500,000.00
407 PJ2607 Pavement Maintenance Zone 4O $350,000.00
407 PJ2582 Meadow Lane – Market St. Paving $250,000.00
All the projects shown in the table above are either complete and their remaining fund balances are no longer needed or have balances available for transfers. All budget transfers will go into the Project.

In addition, Transportation Division staff recommend programming $900,000 of the OSIP funds for the Project. This amount falls within the $1.5 million OSIP allocation established for the "Citywide Traffic Signal Systems Upgrade" project which was identified to upgrade the City’s central traffic management system, field hardware, and signal timing techniques. The Project includes office construction for the City’s TMC including expanding and improving the traffic signal and testing bay that supports field hardware (controller and communications upgrades) and connecting the fiber-optic back bone for the central traffic management system to the new TMC location. These

improvements will directly serve traffic generated by new developments and in maintaining the City's level of service benchmarks as growth occurs.

Fund Fund Description Budget
Appropriation
420 Off-Street Improvement Program (OSIP) $900,000.00
Environmental Determination
On May 28, 2024, the City Council determined the Project was exempt pursuant to CEQA Guidelines sections 15301 – Existing Facilities, 15302 – Replacement and Reconstruction, 15303 – New Construction or Conversion of Small Structures, 15304 – Minor Alterations to Land, and/or 15305 – Minor Alterations in Land Use Limitation. The Project was determined to be exempt from CEQA review as it consists of the replacement of existing office space and storage. There have been no material changes to the Project and the Council reaffirms the Project is still exempt from CEQA; therefore, no further environmental review is warranted. This determination reflected the City’s independent judgement and analysis.

Re: Transportation Offices and Transportation Management Center Project (PJ2648) CM Services Proposal
Dear William,
On behalf of Wilsey Ham, I am delighted to submit this proposal to provide Construction Management Services for the Transportation Offices and Transportation Management Center Project (PJ2648). We are excited about the potential of assisting the City with this project.

Background
The City of Concord has identified a project that consists of removing and replacing an existing structure in the Corporation Yard. The project consists of construction of an office building for the Transportation Division, which includes the equipment storage/testing facilities and Traffic Management Center (TMC). The Project also includes demolition of the existing storage building and construction of the foundation slab and all utility connections prior to building installation. The new building will be approximately 3,000 SF.

Wilsey Ham is currently assisting the City with the preconstruction phase of this project. It is anticipated that this project will be advertised, and bids opened in November 2025. Construction is expected to start in winter 2026. The current schedule indicates that it will take one hundred ninety-two (192) working days to complete construction.

There are multiple permits required for this project including City and Fire.

We also understand that there are hazardous materials on site that require abatement, and the City has engaged a third party to assist in inspection and monitoring of this activity. Wilsey Ham will assist the City in coordination of this work in addition to other consultants the City has contracted with to support the construction activity including geotechnical observation, special testing, and inspection firms and utility agencies.

Approach
Our Project Manager (PM) will be responsible for all interaction with the contractor and City. The PM will review the Contractor’s site safety plan and provide written recommendations to the City for improvement or approval. The PM will receive, record, and distribute RFI’s and submittals to the appropriate parties in a timely manner and hold recipients accountable for responses and resubmittals, as necessary. The PM will monitor work in the field, performing two weekly site visits, which are expected to last approximately two hours each, for quality control on removals and installations, identifying areas of potential conflict or risk, and assisting the Contractor to quickly resolve any field issues or unforeseen conditions.

Weekly progress meetings will be held virtually. The PM will be responsible for developing the agenda for all progress meetings, facilitating the meeting, updating meeting minutes, and distributing the minutes within 72 hours. The PM will review the Contractor’s payment Exhibit A

November 3, 2025
William Wahbeh, PE

recommendations schedule updates and provide written recommendation to the City for approval or adjustments. We are anticipating nine progress payments and a final payment for the work.

Based on the foregoing, we have divided the project into the following Scope of Services.

Subject: Considering approval of the purchase of two ExeLoo prefabricated restroom structures and related services, including a 5% contingency, in the not-to-exceed amount of $547,608.60 for the Meadow Homes Restroom Replacement
Project (Project No. 2635) (Parkland Dedication & Measure V Funds).

CEQA: Not a project/exempt pursuant to Public Resources Code 21065, CEQA and Guidelines Sections 15060(c)(2),
15273, 15301, 15302, 15303, 15304, 15378 and/or 15061(b)(3).

Report in Brief
The Meadow Homes Restroom Replacement Project (Project No. 2635) involves replacing the aging restroom building in Meadow Homes Park that was originally constructed in 1991. Due to ongoing issues with the existing restroom (vandalism, damaged locks and doors, sanitation challenges, and other issues related to heavy usage), a replacement building designed to meet current conditions and demand at Meadow Homes Park is needed.

Engineering and Parks Maintenance Division staff evaluated various outdoor restroom models and their associated costs, and selected ExeLoo due to unique features that will benefit the public while reducing long term maintenance costs. Each ExeLoo

5.h5.h5.h5.h

City Council Agenda Report
Agenda Item No. 5.h
April 14, 2026
prefabricated restroom structure has two stalls that are ADA compliant with touchless entry and other features that collect usage data. The ExeLoo also incorporates an auto cleaning program that reduces maintenance needs. The lead time for delivery is between three to six months from order placement; installation is expected to begin in September 2026 under a separate contract.

Recommended Action
Approve the purchase of two ExeLoo prefabricated restroom structures and related services in the not-to-exceed amount of $547,608.60, including a 5% contingency, for the Meadow Homes Restroom Replacement Project, and make the CEQA determinations as provided in this staff report (Project No. 2635) (Parkland Dedication Funds & Measure V Funds).

Background
Meadow Homes Park has two restroom locations. The original four-stall restroom situated near the sports field was installed in 1991 and is the one being replaced. These restrooms experience regular vandalism including broken door locks and damage to exterior electrical conduits, making the building extremely difficult to maintain and keep clean. The second restroom building, which is not being replaced, was constructed along with the Meadow Homes Spray Park in 2011. This building also experiences routine vandalism so it is only kept open when the spray park is in use during warmer months.

On June 28, 2022, Council adopted the City’s Two-Year Capital Budget for Fiscal Years (FY) 2022-2023 and 2023-2024, and the Five-Year Capital Improvement Plan (CIP) for Fiscal Years 2022-2027. This budget included creation of the Meadow Homes Restroom Replacement Project (Project No. 2635), appropriating an initial $155,000 towards design and implementation.

On June 25, 2024, Council adopted the Two-Year Capital Budget for FYs 2024-2025 and 2025-2026, and Five-Year Capital Improvement Plan FY 2025-2029, which included appropriation of an additional $700,000 to fund installation of the Meadow Homes Restroom Project (Project No. 2635).

Analysis/Procurement Process
Vandalism, heavy use, and other factors have contributed to the current poor condition of the restroom building originally installed in 1991 (see Attachment 3 for picture of existing building). External electrical conduits have been damaged requiring replacement, and the doors to the restrooms are frequently broken with locks no longer functioning. Keeping the restrooms in proper working condition is difficult and costly due to these ongoing issues.

City Council Agenda Report
Agenda Item No. 5.h
April 14, 2026
City of Concord Municipal Code Section 3.10.080 allows the waiver of bidding regulations for sole source purchases. The procurement process for the prefabricated restrooms occurred as follows:

When evaluating restroom replacement options, Engineering staff consulted with the Parks Maintenance Division for input and recommendations. Staff contacted multiple vendors and received lists of features, exhibits, and other information from them. Other vendors that staff contacted for information (such as Throne) are equipped with their own storage tanks for water and sewage, which is not appropriate for the existing Meadow Homes Park site because of existing utilities connections, and would require additional maintenance.

After reviewing manufacturer options, Staff pursued a sole source purchase of the ExeLoo ADA compliant prefabricated restroom structures, as they have several unique key advantages over other manufacturers, including an interior maintenance area that is inaccessible to the public where all utility connections are secured (deters vandalism), touchless doors, touchless toilet paper dispensers, interior alarms to deter loitering, remote capabilities to program opening and closing (locked) times each day, collection of usage data (to assist staff in scheduling cleanings and restocking), and a customizable auto cleaning feature that cleans each stall nightly or after a programmable number of flushes.

ExeLoo’s quote for the two restroom buildings is provided in Attachment 2.

Other cities in the Bay Area and Northern California are using ExeLoo’s prefabricated restrooms, including Pittsburg, Richmond, Hayward, Sacramento, and Napa. Staff has reached out to a few of these local cities for feedback on their ExeLoo restrooms and received positive reviews. Most notably, the cities of Pittsburg and Napa, who have used these restrooms for several years, have written letters of recommendation, highlighting their ability to handle heavy usage, being user friendly, and easy to clean/maintain.

ExLoo restrooms will result in upgraded facilities, improved public access, and reduced maintenance and cost. The purchase will have a lead time between three to six months from order placement to delivery, so it is necessary to purchase the structure in advance of installation. The purchase does not include installation; however, delivery is included in the quote, and ExeLoo has included free on-site support and consultation during both delivery and installation. The installation and site improvement portion of the project, including connection to existing water and sewer utilities, will be completed under a separate contract, for which staff is currently preparing the bid documents, with estimated construction to begin in September 2026.

Financial Impact
The current project budget is $855,000, which consists of $700,000 from Parkland Dedication (Fund 450) and $155,000 from Measure V (Fund 407). Staff estimates that there is sufficient budget to fully fund design, this purchase, and installation based on

City Council Agenda Report
Agenda Item No. 5.h
April 14, 2026
the latest cost estimates. However, a budget transfer may be required depending on future bids received to install the prefabricated restrooms and site improvements due to uncertainties in those costs at this time.

Environmental Determination
Pursuant to the California Environmental Quality Act (CEQA) of 1970, Public Resources Code Section 21000, et. seq., as amended and implementing State CEQA Guidelines, Title 14, Chapter 3 of the California Code of Regulations (collectively “CEQA”), this procurement activity does not constitute a “project” within the meaning of Public Resources Code Section 21065, 14 Cal Code Regs. Sections 15060(c)(2) and 15378 because there is no potential that it will result in a direct or reasonable foreseeable indirect physical change in the environment. In the alternative, this procurement is exempt under CEQA Guidelines Sections 15301 – Existing Facilities, 15302 – Replacement and Reconstruction, 15303 – New Construction or Conversion of Small Structures, and 15304 – Minor Alterations to Land. Moreover, even if this procurement activity does comprise a project for CEQA analysis, it falls within the “common sense” exemption set forth in 14 Cal. Code Regs. Section 15061(b)(3), excluding projects where “it can be seen with certainty that there is no possibility that the activity in question may have a significant effect on the environment” and is statutorily exempt pursuant to 14 Cal. Code Regs. Section 15273 as the activity consists of the creation of government funding mechanisms or other government fiscal activities which do not constitute a “project”. Therefore, no further environmental review is warranted. This determination reflects the City’s independent judgment and analysis. Individual projects will undergo CEQA analysis as necessary.

Subject: Considering authorizing an increase in purchasing authority with Bel Air Mechanical for repairs and replacements of building HVAC components and equipment in a not-to-exceed amount of $150,000 for FY2025-2026; and authorizing the City Manager to execute a new contract amendment in a form
acceptable to the City Attorney.

CEQA: Not a project/exempt pursuant to Public Resources Code Section 21065, CEQA Guidelines Sections 15060(c),
15061(b)(2), 15061(b)(3), 15378, 15323, and/or 15301.

Report in Brief
The City has experienced unplanned HVAC equipment failure at the Willow Pass Community Center, Concord Community Pool, the Police Department building, and HVAC-related vandalism and theft of materials at the Kidango Childcare Center. The current expenditures on HVAC repairs exceed the maximum contractual thresholds within staff authority. The City currently does not have the specialized staff to perform this work and so relies on contracted services to make these repairs.

Recommended Action
Authorize an increase in purchasing authority with Bel Air Mechanical for repairs and replacements of building HVAC components and equipment in a not-to-exceed amount of $150,000 for FY2025-2026; authorize the City Manager to execute a new contract

5.i5.i5.i

City Council Agenda Report
Agenda Item No. 5.i
April 28, 2026
amendment in a form acceptable to the City Attorney, and make the CEQA determinations as provided in this staff report.

Background
In May 2025, in accordance with the City’s Purchasing Ordinance, the Public Works Department informally solicited bids for supplying building HVAC equipment on-call repair and maintenance services. On July 1, 2025, the City determined that Bel Air Mechanical was the lowest and responsive bidder; and the City and Bel Air Mechanical entered into a three-year maintenance services agreement (Agreement No. 3562) with two one-year extension options with the initial three-year term expiring on June 30, 2028. This maintenance service agreement allows a not-to-exceed amount of $70,000 per fiscal year.

Between July 14, 2025, and February 28, 2026, the City fully utilized the approved $70,000 on repairs to various HVAC systems throughout the City and to provide other maintenance to HVAC systems to keep them operational.

Between March 1, 2026, and March 20, 2026, the City experienced unexpected equipment failure at the Willow Pass Community Center which required repairs to the HVAC system in an amount above the original $70,000 approved in Agreement No. 3562. On March 23, 2026, the City amended the Agreement (First Amendment - Amendment No. 3562-A) and increased the contracted maximum to $95,000 for FY2026.

Between March 23, 2026, and April 1, 2026, the City experienced vandalism to the HVAC unit at the Kidango Childcare Center and HVAC equipment failure at the Police Department Building.

Analysis
Deferring repairs to these critical HVAC systems is not an option for the City. Beyond maintaining a comfortable workplace, the City has a legal obligation to ensure a safe and healthy environment for its employees. The Occupational Safety and Health Administration (OSHA) establishes and enforces workplace safety standards, including requirements for adequate ventilation and air quality. Proper HVAC operation is essential to maintaining sufficient airflow, reducing the buildup of contaminants, and protecting occupant health and safety in compliance with OSHA regulations.

Bel Air Mechanical provided repair quotes totaling $44,640 for the HVAC system repairs. Given the urgent need to restore reliable heating and cooling, these repairs are considered an emergency to ensure occupant comfort and to meet the City’s legal obligations under OSHA. Accordingly, it is necessary to increase spending authority and amend the contract with Bel Air Mechanical in the amount of $150,000 to promptly address these issues and maintain compliance.

City Council Agenda Report
Agenda Item No. 5.i
April 28, 2026
Concord Municipal Code (CMC) defines an “Emergency”, as “A sudden, unforeseen occurrence that poses a clear and imminent danger, requiring immediate action to prevent or mitigate the loss of impairment of life, health property, or essential public services.” Because these repairs need to be made immediately to provide a safe working environment for the occupants, the City can waive bidding under 3.10.080(1) “Where an emergency situation exists and the public health, welfare, and safety of the city requires that an order be immediately placed with a source of supply”.

Per CMC 3.10.080(1) staff recommends waiving bidding requirements in order for the contractor to immediately make repairs to these systems so that the buildings can remain safe and usable by occupants per OSHA safety standards that require HVAC systems to provide free air flow to ensure occupants safety and health.

Financial Impact
Funding for this second contract amendment is available in the adopted FY2026 Public Works Department Facilities Maintenance Division’s operating budget.

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, award of this contract is considered categorically exempt from further environmental review pursuant to the California Environmental Quality Act (“CEQA”) per CEQA Guidelines Section 15301 – Existing Facilities, and/or 15323 – Normal Operations of Facilities for Public Gatherings.

No unusual circumstances exist and none of the exceptions under CEQA Guidelines Section 1530.2 apply.

Robert Ring
Cross Country Mortgage Mortgage Advisor Mortgage Banker Robert Ring

Question applies to multiple boards
Considering your experience and activities in business, labor, professional, social, or other organizations, indicate the experience, technical training, and/or skills which qualify you for an appointment:

My qualifications for this appointment stem from over a decade of hands-on experience at the intersection of real estate finance, business operations, and municipal processes. As a licensed real estate broker, I regularly work with financial statements, investment analyses, and capital allocation strategies — giving me the technical foundation to meaningfully review audit reports and evaluate how Measure V revenues are being collected and spent. In my development and consulting work, I advise clients on complex financial decisions, assess risk, and interpret data to make sound recommendations — the same core skills this committee requires when providing guidance to the City Council. I am comfortable reading and analyzing government financial documents, budgets, and expenditure reports, and I understand how local tax revenue flows through municipal systems. Beyond my professional background, I have been an active civic participant in Concord. Running for City Council gave me firsthand exposure to city governance, budget priorities, and the concerns of residents and business owners across our community. That experience sharpened my understanding of how policy and public spending decisions impact real people. I also represent a perspective that is sometimes underrepresented on oversight bodies — that of a younger business professional who is deeply rooted in this community, raising a family here, and personally invested in how Concord manages its public resources. I bring both the technical skills to perform meaningful financial oversight and the civic motivation to ensure Measure V continues to deliver on its promise to Concord voters.

Question applies to Measure V Oversight Committee
Why do you believe the Council should appoint you to the Measure V Oversight Committee?
The Council should appoint me because I bring a rare combination of financial expertise, civic commitment, and genuine community stake to this role. I'm not looking for a resume line — I'm a Concord resident raising a family here, and I have a personal interest in making sure every dollar of Measure V revenue is spent the way voters intended. Professionally, I work in real estate finance and investment, which means analyzing financial statements, scrutinizing budgets, and advising on how capital should be deployed is something I do every day. I can walk into an audit review and ask the right questions. I understand how money moves through complex systems and where oversight matters most. What also sets me apart is my broader civic context. Running for City Council gave me a ground-level understanding of Concord's priorities, its challenges, and the expectations residents have for their local government. That experience, combined with my business background, means I can evaluate Measure V expenditures not just as numbers on a page, but through the lens of whether they're actually moving the needle for the people of this city. Oversight committees are most effective when their members are independent, informed, and genuinely engaged. I offer all three. I have no political agenda beyond accountability and good governance. I'm committed to showing up, doing the work, and producing a report the Council and the community can trust. Concord's residents voted for Measure V in good faith — I want to be part of the team that honors that trust. I would lastly add, that I think I am eligible for the resident or business position, so please kindly consider me for the one deemed most appropriate.

Which Boards would you like to apply for?
Measure V Oversight Committee: Submitted
Rhythm Krishna Mohan
Grocery Outlet Sr Logistics Analyst Sr Logistics Analyst Rhythm Krishna Mohan

Question applies to multiple boards
Considering your experience and activities in business, labor, professional, social, or other organizations, indicate the experience, technical training, and/or skills which qualify you for an appointment:

Throughout my career, I’ve consistently been in roles that require collaboration, accountability, and strong financial judgment — qualities I believe are essential for Measure V oversight. As a Senior Logistics Analyst, I work cross-functionally with finance, procurement, operations, and executive leadership to identify inefficiencies, review expenditures, and implement cost-saving measures. I’m often the connector between technical data, business strategy, and decision-making, ensuring that projects don’t just move forward — they move forward responsibly and with a measurable return. I’ve helped lead large-scale initiatives such as RFP negotiations, warehouse onboarding, internal audits, and budget validation reviews, many of which resulted in hundreds of thousands of dollars in savings or efficiency improvements. Whether I’m working with engineers, accountants, executives, or warehouse leads, I’m skilled at bringing diverse perspectives together, aligning goals, and steering projects toward fair and practical resolutions. My commitment to accountability and community involvement began long before my professional career. All throughout high school, I volunteered with programs under First 5 San Mateo County, supporting early childhood development initiatives and local nonprofit campaigns focused on education and family resources. Those experiences grounded me in public service and taught me the importance of listening, patience, and showing up for your community. Across both my personal and professional life, I’ve built a reputation for being detail-oriented, fair- minded, and results-focused. I don’t just review numbers — I ask what they mean, what impact they have, and how we can do better. I believe that mindset would serve the Committee, the Council, and the residents of Concord well.

Question applies to Measure V Oversight Committee
Why do you believe the Council should appoint you to the Measure V Oversight Committee?
I believe I bring the right combination of financial discipline, cross-functional leadership, and grounded community perspective. Professionally, I’ve been trusted to review budgets, validate expenditures, identify inefficiencies, and lead cost-saving initiatives — all while ensuring transparency and accountability across teams. That same mindset is essential for responsible oversight of Measure V funds. Personally, I represent a modern Concord household — a multicultural, dual-working family with strong educational backgrounds who chose to build our lives here. My husband and I strongly believe that if you want to see meaningful change in your community, you have to be actively involved in it. Serving on this committee is one way I can give back and ensure that tax dollars are managed with fairness, clarity, and long-term benefit in mind. Appointing me would bring both technical competence and lived civic commitment — someone who not only understands how to read the numbers, but also how those numbers affect real residents across different walks of life.

Question applies to Measure V Oversight Committee
Why do you believe the Council should appoint you to the Measure V Oversight Committee?
I believe I would be a strong addition to the Measure V Oversight Committee because I bring experience evaluating complex programs, tracking implementation against stated goals, and asking clear, practical questions about outcomes, accountability, and use of public funds. My professional background has required me to work across government systems, labor- represented workforces, and community partners, which has sharpened my ability to balance fiscal responsibility with real-world operational constraints.
