To: City Council/Successor Agency to the Former Cotati Community Redevelopment Agency
Subject: Resolution Approving a Disposition and Development Agreement Between David McDonald and Brion Wise of B Wise Inc, and the City of Cotati/Cotati Community Redevelopment Successor Agency Regarding Real Property Commonly Known as 950 E. Cotati Avenue (APN 144-320-026) and Authorizing the Executive Director to Execute all Documents Necessary to Complete the Sale.
Date: June 28, 2022
Written by: Angela Courter, Director of Administrative Services Recommendation
It is recommended that the City Council, acting on behalf of the City of Cotati and the Successor Agency, adopt a Resolution approving the Disposition and Development Agreement Between David McDonald and Brion Wise of B Wise Inc and the City of Cotati and Cotati Community Redevelopment Successor Agency Regarding real at 950 E. Cotati Avenue (APN 144-320-026) and authorize the City Manager/Executive Director to execute all documents necessary to complete the sale.
Background
The Cotati Successor Agency is required to sell a 0.42-acre parcel located on E. Cotati Avenue (See Attachment 1) as part of the dissolution of the former Cotati Community Development Commission. The parcel is adjacent to the Cotati SMART Station and is part of the Santero Way Specific Plan which allows mixed use residential and commercial development.
The property was listed for sale based on equivalent properties zoned for mixed use development, as identified in the City of Cotati Long Range Property Management Plan (LRPMP) for an estimated price of between $287,000 and $350,000. This price is supported by the appraisal completed for the LRPMP, which is dated December 2015.
After procuring the services of a local real estate broker, the property was listed for sale and received no offers or bids. A second real estate broker was selected, and the property re-listed in August 2020. A final offer to purchase the property for $350,000 was submitted to the City
9.A
Packet Pg. 7
of Cotati, for a proposed mixed-use development. On June 1, 2021, a Surplus Land Act, notification was sent out for the required 60-day notification period to allow affordable housing developers to make an offer on the property. No such offers were received.
On June 17, 2022, the Consolidated Oversight Board adopted their resolution to approve the contract for the sale of the property.
Analysis/Discussion
The City of Cotati/Successor Agency directed staff to move forward with negotiations with the offering party, and the City/Agency received Oversight Board approval to sell the property for three hundred fifty thousand dollars ($350,000) on June 17, 2022, as previously mentioned.
This offer is within the appraised value and within the estimated range of value of two hundred fourteen thousand nine hundred and sixty-six dollars and three hundred fifty-nine thousand one hundred and thirty dollars ($214,966 - $359,130) per the Long-Range Property Management Plan.
The agreement requires development of the property with the mixed-use project inclusive of a minimum of six multi-family housing units and a similar amount of commercial square footage in keeping with the direction and requirements of the Cotati LRPMP. The offering party is a general contractor as provided information regarding their participation in several successful development projects. The final purchase agreement requires the buyer provide a down payment deposit and obtain all necessary City entitlements and CEQA approvals prior to the property being transferred upon demonstration of a viable construction financing plans. Given the limited number and schedule of Oversight Board meetings, and the complexity of development financing and entitlement approval timing, staff brought the conceptual purchase agreement and there were no significant comments at that time outside of the requirement of the sales price to meet or exceed the valuation. One item of note is that the agreement includes dual Exhibit B sections which describe the easement requirements.
At the request of the Rancho Adobe Fire Protection District (RAFPD), the City has recorded a 20- foot emergency evacuation easement across the eastern boundary of the property. Supplementing this 20-foot evacuation easement (also at the request of the RAFPD), the City also recorded a 5- foot “no build” easement adjacent to the evacuation easement. This supplemental easement is intended to ensure adequate access and circulation remain in place as the property develops. Both easements are labeled Exhibit B to the sales agreement given that they function together and total a 25-foot easement limiting development across the property.
9.A
Packet Pg. 8
Staff recommends the City Council, acting on behalf of the City of Cotati and Successor Agency, and consistent with the Consolidated Oversight Board, authorizes the City to transfer the property to allow the development of the site with a mixed-use project in keeping with the direction of the LRPMP, for a sales price of $350,000. The proposed mixed-use project would be consistent with the Santero Way Specific Plan however, the site is a challenge to develop given the constrains of the adjacent SMART parking lot, existing City infrastructure and access easements and municipal site ownership as well as the requirement for Site Plan and Architectural Review by the Planning Commission and potentially the City Council before any project could move forward to construction.
Financial Considerations
The sale of the property would provide funds for each of the taxing agencies based on their share of property tax. The development of the commercial piece of the property, in line with the longrange property management plan, would serve to potentially increase the future sales tax revenues. Currently, there is no known significant expenditure of resources other than staff time.
Environmental Issues
This action is exempt from the California Environmental Quality Act (CEQA) because it is not a project which has a potential for resulting in either a direct physical change in the environment, or a foreseeable indirect physical change in the environment, pursuant to CEQA Guideline section 15378.

Property Management Plan December 2015
I. BACKGROUND
Pursuant to Health and Safety Code sections 34177(e) and 34181(a) a successor agency is required to dispose of all assets and properties of a former redevelopment agency that were purchased with tax increment revenues. This document addresses Section 34191.4(a) and 34191.5 (a) of Assembly Bill 1484 (AB 1484) and Section 34181 (a) (1 and 2) of Senate Bill 107 and related requirements for preparation of a Long Range Property Management Plan (“Plan”) related to the real property assets of the former Redevelopment Agency of the City of Cotati (“Former Agency”), which have been transferred to the Successor Agency to the Cotati Community Redevelopment Agency (“Agency” or “Successor Agency”). The Plan identifies existing Agency real property assets (e.g. land, buildings, etc.) and sets forth a strategy for the appropriate retention and disposition of such assets in accordance with the provisions of AB 1484 and SB 107, including recommended actions to be undertaken by the Oversight Board to position the subject assets for disposition in a logical and systematic manner so as to enhance the disposition value of the subject assets.
II. SUMMARY OF PROPOSED REAL PROPERTY ASSET RETENTION
AND DISPOSITION ACTIONS
This Long Range Property Management Plan (Plan) sets forth a proposed strategy and plan for retention and disposition of certain identified Agency-owned real property assets within the City of Cotati, California and identified in Table 1 below.
A. Transfer of Real Property for Government Use
The proposed disposition plan objective for fifteen of the properties listed in Table 1 below is to transfer those to the City of Cotati for continued Government Use. Such a transfer is consistent with the current use of the properties and will continue to serve the facility needs of the City and further upgrade the quality of services provided by the City.
Such a transfer is also consistent with Section 34181(a) of AB 1484 as amended by SB 107. These properties were constructed for use as parks and park facilities, police or fire stations, and administrative buildings and shall be transferred by the Successor Agency to the City, which will retain the property and assets for ongoing governmental use. These are identified as properties 1-14 and 16 in Table 1 below.

B. Disposition (Sale) and Private Development
This Plan proposes that property 15 be positioned for disposition (sale) for private development pursuant to Section 34191.5(c) (2) and (2) (b) of AB 1484. This property is one of five parcels that resulted from re-mapping of a parcel acquired for the purposes of blight removal, accommodation of commuter and spillover parking needs and facilitation of infrastructure and services related to the light rail system currently under construction and associated intermodal transit facility. The remaining parcel will be disposed of through traditional marketing practices. It will be sold at fair market value and proceeds will be distributed as property tax to the local taxing agencies.
III. DESCRIPTION REAL PROPERTY ASSETS
Health & Safety Code sections 34177(e) and 34181(a) require that the Successor Agency designate each of the Former Agency-owned real property assets by one of the following categories: 1) Retention for government use; 2) Sale of the property; 3)Retention for future use; 4) Use of Property to fulfill an enforceable obligation. Included as Attachment A is a property data table describing the real property assets held by the Successor Agency. Attachment B consists of parcel maps of the Properties.

These properties are all located adjacent to Cotati City Hall (Figure 1) and the properties are currently operated and maintained by the City of Cotati. Cotati City Hall was originally the Cotati School, built in 1921. When the school moved next door in 1971, the former school building became City Hall and the Cotati Police Department. The school ultimately moved again and the property was acquired by the former Agency in 1996.
The Cotati School became the Ray Miller Community Center and in 2003, a new police facility was built next door to City Hall on property identified as Site #3 and Site #4. The new Police facility provided much needed holding and evidence facilities when it opened in October 2003. The land adjacent to the Police Station was vacant property that was acquired at the same time and developed into Civic Center Park. The park consists of open space configured into a baseball field (Cator Field), basketball courts, barbeque and picnic tables, and parking. The facilities are open to the public and the ballfields are used by the Rancho Cotati Little League. The Community Center consists of several classrooms and a multi-purpose room which serve as the basis for the City’s recreation activities, including a teen center and a computer lab for seniors. The classrooms are used by a number of nonprofit organizations including Alcoholics and Narcotics Anonymous and can be rented for events. It is currently estimated that expenses and property maintenance exceed the annual revenue generated. The proposed disposition plan objective for these properties is to transfer the ownership to the City of Cotati for continued government use, consistent with the properties’ current use.

These properties were acquired in 2001 as part of a larger project relating to the adjacent creek and the construction of a neighboring housing project. The remaining parcels next to the creek were not large enough for additional housing units so were developed as park and open space uses. They provide needed open space for the surrounding neighborhoods which have relatively small private yards. They are maintained by the City. Falletti Park (Figure 2) contains a small playground, barbeque area and picnic tables and walking path.
The proposed disposition plan objective for these properties is to transfer the ownership to the City of Cotati for continued Government Use and is consistent with the current use of the properties.

Sites 7 through 11 constitute the City’s historic landmarked hexagonal square.
What is now the City of Cotati was originally laid out as a town site by Dr. Thomas Page in 1897. Page was the fourth owner of the 17,000 acre Rancho Cotate land grant, purchasing it in 1849. Page hired Newton Smyth to lay out a new town on Rancho lands in order to sell lots to settlers. Smyth designed the town site around a six-sided hexagonal square. The outer ring streets are named for each of Page’s six sons -- William, George, Arthur, Charles, Henry and Olof and cross streets radiate from the center akin to spokes of a wheel. At the center of the square is La Plaza Park. Cotati’s unique hexagonal town square is one of only two in the United States and was granted California Historical Landmark No. 879 in March 1975. The Plaza is also eligible for federal historic designation. The landmark plaque is located in the southeast plaza section adjacent to Old Redwood Highway, next to the memorial rose garden and flag pole.
Sites 7 through 11 are the four quadrants of the hexagonal town square and are, therefore, an integral part of the City’s history and identity. (See Figure 3.) The properties host a variety of community events throughout the year and contain numerous monuments and markers important to the City’s traditions and history. The town’s name is taken from a fictional chief of the local band of Coast Miwok. A statue of “Chief Kotate” (Figure 3)

was designed and sculpted in 1980 by the late artist Vito Paulekas. It sits in the southwest section of La Plaza Park adjacent to West Sierra Avenue. The statue was officially dedicated by the Cotati City Council in 1990. In 1991, the City Council voted to adopt the La Plaza Specific Plan which kicked-off a series of enhancements to the City's downtown including new bus shelters, sidewalks and seating benches. During this period, La Plaza Park was remodeled extensively with a new bandstand and a new playground structure.
Then, in 2009, the City adopted the Downtown Specific Plan to further refine the downtown vision and identify needed updates of land use regulations, financing and implementation tools. The Downtown Specific Plan established regulations to assist in the creation of a vibrant downtown commercial core to provide both community members and visitors with goods, services and entertainment. Much denser development of housing and retail uses is envisioned in the Plan, with three-story mixed use buildings being the predominant form. With the increased intensity of new development, minimal area will be available for visitor parking. Site 12 was acquired and was intended to provide needed parking for the downtown business district. This site will allow for public parking close to activity areas without changing the vision or traffic flow of the six-sided Plaza site. The vision of the adopted Downtown Specific Plan is a reunified La Plaza Park/town plaza with vehicle traffic circulating around the center of the “hub” on La Plaza Avenue. (See Figure 4.) Site 9 includes a small community building currently leased to the local Lions Club for $1 per year and the adjacent Site 10 is the Rancho Adobe Fire Protection District station. Site 9 was originally leased to the Lion’s Club in 1969, stipulated to be used only for youth and senior activities. The original lease term was one year with year to year extensions unless terminated. Either party may terminate the lease with 180 days’ notice.
The facilities consist of a small building with three minimalist meeting/activity rooms and associated parking. The building is in disrepair, with a need for significant upgrades.
Should the lease terminate, the property would not be leased to another party due to the vision of a reunified open space detailed in the adopted Downtown Specific Plan. Site 11 is the memorial rose garden and surrounding open space.
The proposed disposition plan objective for these properties is to transfer the ownership to the City of Cotati for continued government use, consistent with their current and proposed uses. Sites 7 through 11 have continually been held in public ownership

since the original plat which formed the town site. The sites have no development potential due to their Park and Open Space zoning within the Downtown Specific Plan and the restrictions of the historic landmark status.

The properties were acquired to assist in implementation as part of the Intermodal Transit Center anchored by Sonoma Marin Area Rail Transit or SMART. The City and the Former Agency partnered with Sonoma County Transit, and SMART) to build a station next to the service tracks, a Park & Ride facility and associated bus and train infrastructure. The facilities serve City residents and visitors, along with students, faculty and staff of Sonoma State University. The Cotati station is one of several stops on the Sonoma County portion of the SMART service area. The properties were purchased in 2001 and housed an abandoned warehouse that was demolished to make way for the construction of a new depot, parking and retail space. The train depot opened April 7, 2015. Sonoma County Transit purchased part of the original development site to construct a Park and Ride facility which is also complete. The original parcels that were purchased were re-mapped to facilitate the intermodal plans and a new map approved (see Attachment B page 5). The proposed disposition for Site 13 (the train station) and Site 14 (the remnant parcel developed as a bus turnout in front of the train station) is to transfer the ownership to the City of Cotati for continued government use.
Site 16 was originally intended to be a development site, however, construction of the intermodal facilities and partial implementation of the Santero Way Specific Plan which governs zoning and development of the privately owned, adjacent parcels to the west and south, have resulted in the property being unusable for development. The parcel was mapped as 27,443 square feet, but emergency vehicle access (fire) requirements for an access road secondary to Santero Way, have resulted in the need for a 34-foot wide

roadway across the parcel. This emergency access road results in a loss of approximately 7,295 square feet and bifurcation of the property. The resulting developable area of the property is approximately 12,540 square feet and unusable for future development. (See Figure 5.) In addition, parking standards of the governing Santero Way Specific Plan were greatly reduced over a typical residential neighborhood standard in order to fulfil the Plan’s vision for transit oriented development. Unfortunately, a parking and emergency access problem on Santero Way has resulted from the neighborhood to the south which was built in 2005/6. The City intends to remedy these conditions by constructing additional parking adjacent to the future secondary access roadway which, unlike the transit district’s park and ride facility, will be available for neighborhood parking.
The remaining property, Site 15, will be positioned for future development as commercial or mixed-use residential/commercial development associated with future commuter rail travel consistent with the Santero Way Specific Plan. The specific plan area designated as a Priority Development Area (PDA) in the Sustainable Communities Strategy adopted by the Association of Bay Area Governments. The Successor Agency will market the site for disposition and development consistent with the Plan’s goals.

IV. RETENTION AND DISPOSITION STRATEGY AND PLAN
A. Categories of Property and Asset Disposition
1. Retention of Real Property Asset for Government (Public) Use The plan proposes that Properties Sites 1-14 and 16 (identified in Table 1 above) be transferred to the City of Cotati. The sites were acquired by the Former Agency, and have been continually dedicated to government uses.
2. Disposition (Sale) of Real Property
The Plan proposes that Property 15 be positioned for future disposition by the Successor Agency and Oversight Board. The LRPMP disposition plan objective is to market the property and ensure that future development takes place based on adopted City Plans and regulations.
B. Estimated Value and Disposition of Proceeds for Identified Real Property Assets
1. Estimated Value of Property and Distribution of Proceeds The Agency has estimated a range of potential market value of the subject Property based on a preliminary review of real estate market conditions in the City. The estimated range of value (low and high) is based on preliminary information obtained from discussions with commercial real estate brokers with a working knowledge of the City and Sonoma County real estate market. The value estimate is only intended to provide an “order-ofmagnitude” estimate of potential value and is not intended to present appraised market value or broker’s opinion of market value. Based on this, each of the Property’s market value is estimated to be in the range of $11.75 to $19.63 per square foot, with the high range for properties with no development impediments. Table 2 summarizes the range of values for the Property. The Agency will negotiate the best price that is obtainable and consistent with its adopted Plans. The proceeds generated from the disposition will be distributed to Sonoma County for allocation to the applicable taxing entities in accordance with the provisions of AB 1484.

Approach and Process for Disposition of Real Property Assets Property No. 15 is planned to be offered for sale through a Request for Proposals and Offer (RFPO) process. The Successor Agency and Oversight Board will prepare and implement a RFPO process for selection of a private developer to acquire and develop the Property consistent with the adopted regulations of the City. The intent of the RFPO process would be to select the most qualified business and development partner related to disposition and development of the Property and respective business offers which provide the highest and most certain economic value and return from the disposition. Subsequent to selection of a private developer the Agency will work cooperatively with the private developer to negotiate the terms and conditions for disposition. These provisions would be negotiated during an exclusive negotiation period, and would be embodied in a purchase and sale agreement between the Successor Agency and the selected private developer.
1. Marketing and Outreach
The goal of a proposed marketing effort is to attract high-quality development which will add to the existing neighborhood quality and increase surrounding property values.
Written marketing information for the preliminary outreach effort would include a description of the Property and the City, general land use provisions, and information available from applicable studies.
The primary focus of the marketing efforts should be to attract local and regional real estate development companies that have qualifications, experience and successful track records in development and operation of high-quality commercial / mixed use development. The Agency contact local developers or local property owners who may have an interest in developing the Property. A preliminary outreach effort related to marketing of the site will include: 1) meeting with various real estate trade and business

organizations; 2) distributing the subject RFPO to identified real estate development; companies, architects, engineers, other consultants; 3) posting the RFPO on the City web page; and 3) placing advertisements related to the RFPO in the appropriate local and / or regional newspapers.
In accordance with SB 107, it is anticipated that compensation agreements will be a condition of Oversight Board approval of this Long Range Property Management Plan. If agreements are required, they will be developed and executed prior to the transfer of Property #15 for future development.

Attachment: Purchase and Sale Agreement- 950 E. Cotati Ave. (Land Purchase Agreement 950 E. Cotati) 3 THIS DISPOSITION AND DEVELOPMENT AGREEMENT (this “Agreement” or “DDA”) is entered into effective as of ____TBD___________, 2022 (“Effective Date”) by and between the City of Cotati, a California municipal corporation (“City”), and David McDonald and Brion Wise of B Wise Inc., an Nevada Corporation 50-50 partnership (“Developer”). City and Developer are hereinafter individually referred to as “Party” and collectively referred to as the “Parties.”
RECITALS
A. The City owns a parcel located at 950 E. Cotati Avenue in Cotati, California, known as Sonoma County Assessor’s Parcel No. 144-320-026 and more particularly described in Exhibit A attached hereto and incorporated herein by reference (the “Property”). The Property was formerly owned by an agency of the State of California (“Caltrans”) and is currently undeveloped and is underutilized.
B. City desires to convey Property to Developer for the purpose of development of a mixed-use residential and commercial project (the “Project”) consisting of approximately 6 units of multi-family residential development with associated amenities and 7,000 square footage of commercial space, all subject to final plans and City regulatory approval, on the Property.
Property and Project are more particularly described in Sections 5.1 and 5.2 herein, respectively.
C. City, prior to commencing discussions with Developer, issued notices pursuant to the Surplus Land Act, and it received no requests from negotiate.
D. The Parties desire to enter into an agreement setting forth the terms under which the City would convey Property to Developer and Developer would construct the Project.
Title to the Property would transfer to Developer upon completion and approval of Project’s design through City’s entitlement and environmental review process. Developer explicitly acknowledges that this Agreement is intended to allow for the development of a mixed-use project, explicitly requires compliance with all applicable City regulations and does not allow it to rely on provisions of state law, such as the Housing Accountability Act or SB 35, to avoid those requirements or to construct a purely residential development on the site.
E. On August 10, 2001, the City adopted Ordinance No.721 formally amending the past approval and establishing the current Santero Way Specific Plan (“SWSP”), amending the Land Use Code, and amending zoning map designations for the properties within the SWSP area. The City earlier had approved and certified the Environmental Impact Report (“EIR”) prepared for the SWSP on May 1, 2000. Subsequently, an amendment to the SWSP was analyzed under an Addendum to the EIR and a Notice of Determination was filed for the Addendum.
F. The City has determined that development of the Property with the Project can act as a catalyst for subsequent development projects, further the State and City’s housing goals by adding to the City’s supply of market rate and affordable housing units, and will be of benefit to the SWSP Specific Plan Area and the City as a whole. The purpose of this Agreement is to facilitate development of the Project.

A material inducement to the City to enter into this Agreement is the agreement by Developer to develop the Project within the time periods specified herein and in accordance with the provisions hereof, and the City would be unwilling to enter into this Agreement in the absence of an enforceable commitment by Developer to complete the Project in accordance with such provisions and within such time periods, subject to the terms and conditions set forth herein.
H. In connection with this Agreement, Developer shall provide such documentation as City shall reasonably require in connection with the Project and its financing. This Agreement, and all City financing or sale documents are collectively hereinafter referred to as the “City Documents.”
I. The Parties acknowledge that the effectiveness of any City Documents and related documents requiring City participation will be contingent upon the approval of the City Council. The Parties recognize that the participation and cooperation of Sonoma County Transit may be essential to the implementation of the Project and continuing operation of adjacent parking spaces. Accordingly, the Parties are committed to engaging in ongoing communications and participation with Sonoma County Transit.

The Project will consist of an upscale, two to three story mixed use development project consisting of approximately 16 residential units, and 7,000 square feet of commercial land use with associated and appropriate amenities on an approximately 0.42-acre site consisting of Sonoma County Assessor Parcel Numbers 144-320-026, located at the southeast corner of East Cotati Avenue and Santero Way. To the maximum extent reasonably and fiscally feasible, as determined in the reasonable discretion of Developer consistent with approved plans, the Project will be of high-quality design and materials within an environmentally and pedestrian friendly site utilizing low impact development techniques, energy efficient buildings, all necessary utility infrastructure, and clear connections to the adjacent public realm. The building façades and site materials will reflect a Sonoma County aesthetic with a focus on natural and traditional materials, energy and water efficiency and ease of use and access for pedestrians and bicyclists.
The Project will be constructed to meet CalGreen Tier 1 code requirements and Developer will use best reasonable efforts to achieve a net-zero energy building; use of solar energy production where feasible, energy efficient fixtures and appliances; and maximum utilization of LED lighting technology. Site design shall include all required and feasible low impact development techniques and practices. All of the foregoing are collectively hereinafter referred to as the “Improvements”.
City acknowledges that the successful completion of the Project is, for its own purposes, to the benefit of and in interest of the City as well as Developer. Without limiting City’s ordinary authority processes, Developer and City will use best reasonable efforts and cooperate as reasonably beneficial to the Project in obtaining or acquiring any such available related public or development related incentives including, without limitation, any grants, tax benefits and/or rebates concerning any such design and/or construction aspects as the case may be in the interest of the Project.
Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained herein, the construction of the Project is expressly conditioned upon compliance with California Environmental Quality Act (“CEQA”), as necessary and appropriate. Necessary studies and reports will be completed, necessary notices will be filed. No physical construction work, not otherwise exempt from CEQA, shall commence on the Property without such compliance. Provided, however, if environmental review determines remediation or mitigation in excess of Two Hundred Fifty Thousand Dollars ($250,000) shall be required by any governmental agency concerning the Project, then:
a. The Developer may, at its option, and only after a good faith consultation with the City to resolve the issue, cancel this Agreement and receive refund of the Good Faith Deposit in accordance with section 4.3; or

Subject: Adoption of the City Wide Salary Schedule for Fiscal Year 2022/23 Date: June 28, 2022
Written by: Neil Tomlinson,
Recommendation
It is recommended that the City Council adopt the fiscal year 2022/23 salary schedule, as updated per the current City labor agreements.
Background
The City Council and staff believe that our citizens have a right to full transparency with respect to public information, including the wages and benefits received by City employees and elected officials. To that end, salary schedules as well as labor agreements are available on the City’s website.
For transparency as well as effective and efficient financial reporting, City staff have prepared the annual salary schedule for fiscal year 2022/23, using the adopted labor agreements in effect as of July 1, 2022.
Analysis/Discussion
The City of Cotati has three separate bargaining units; the CEA, the Cotati Police Officers Association (CPOA), and the Cotati Police Management Association (CPMA), as well as the Non-Represented group and a single employment agreement with the City manager. The salary schedule implements the existing approved memorandum of understandings with each group or contract.
The State of California has implemented an annual increase to the minimum wage so that as of January 1, 2023, the minimum wage will be increased by 50 cents to $15.50 per hour. To meet this requirement the City staff is recommending early adoption of the minimum wage in effect for Intern and Recreation Staff positions as of the first full pay period of the fiscal year.
Financial Considerations
There is no fiscal impact associated with the approval and publishing of the salary schedule.

Subject: Adoption of a Resolution Approving the Annual Appropriations (Gann) Limit for Fiscal Year 2022/23.
Date: June 28, 2022
Written by: Neil Tomlinson,
Recommendation
It is recommended that the City Council Adopt a Resolution Approving the annual appropriations limit for the City of Cotati Fiscal Year 2022/23.
Background
On November 6, 1979, California voters approved the Gann Spending Limitation Initiative (Proposition 4) establishing Article XIIIB of the State Constitution. Subsequently, on June 5, 1990, California voters approved the Traffic Congestion Relief and Spending Limitation Act (Proposition 111), which made various amendments to Article XIIIB of the State Constitution.
Article XIIIB sets limits on the amount of tax revenues that the State and most local governments can appropriate within a given fiscal year.
The Appropriation Limit is based on actual appropriations during the 1978/79 fiscal year, as increased each year using specified population and inflationary growth factors. The original legislation implementing the provisions of Article XIIIB became effective January 1, 1981. In accordance with that legislation, the governing body of each government jurisdiction must, by resolution, establish its annual Appropriation Limit for the coming year (prior to July 1) at a regularly scheduled meeting or noticed special meeting. Based on Article XIIIB, the City of Cotati can use the larger of two measurements of population growth, (county or city population growth) in the Appropriations Limit calculation. For Fiscal Year 2022/23, the City is using the City of Cotati population factor, as this is lower than the rate for the County of Sonoma as a whole.
Analysis/Discussion
Section 7910 of the State Government Code requires a governing body to annually adopt by resolution, an Appropriations (Gann) Limit for the upcoming fiscal year when the budget is adopted. The Appropriations Limit is adjusted annually based on population and per capita income changes. This updated information is received from the California Department of
9.C
Packet Pg. 94
Finance in May and is included within the final Appropriations Limit calculation.
Staff has calculated the Gann limit to be $18,355,175. The City’s tax proceeds subject to the FY 2022/23 Gann Limit are estimated at $8,834,095. Therefore, the City is deemed to be under the Gann limitation, by $9,521,080, and in compliance with state law. Adoption of the attached Resolution will formalize the Gann limit calculation for FY 2022/23.
Financial Considerations
The adoption of the Fiscal Year 2022/23 Appropriations Limit has no impact on City resources.

RESOLUTION NO.
A RESOLUTION OF THE CITY COUNCIL OF THE CITY OF COTATI
ESTABLISHING THE “GANN” APPROPRIATIONS LIMIT FOR FISCAL YEAR 2022/23.
WHEREAS, in November of 1979, the California electorate did adopt Proposition 4, commonly called the Gann Amendment, which added Article XIII-B to the California Constitution; and

Proposition 4, approved by the voters in November 1979, added California Constitution, Article XIIIB. This article limits the level of most appropriations from tax sources that the state and most local government entities are permitted to make in any given year. The limit for each year is equal to the limit for the prior year, adjusted for changes in the cost‐of‐living and population plus other various adjustments as required.
The first year in which appropriations limits applied to state and local governments in California was fiscal year (FY) 1980/81.
It should be noted that Appropriations Limit applies only to proceeds of taxes, as defined by the law and statewide reporting guidelines.

The City's limitation is calculated every year and is established by resolution of the City Council as part of the Annual Operating Budget.
A City Resolution was approved June 28, 2022 establishing the City of Cotati's appropriations limit.
The City's appropriations subject to the Gann Limit totals $8,834,095, which is well below the authorized spending limit of $18,355,175. Additional appropriations to the budget funded by non‐tax sources such as beginning fund balances, grants or service charges are unaffected by the appropriations limit. Historically, the City's Annual Appropriations Limit has exceeded annual appropriations and the City projects the trend to continue.

Subject: Consider approval of a Professional Design agreement with Harris and Associates for the Design of the 2023 Street Preservation Project
Date: June 28, 2022
Written by: Craig Scott, Director of Public Works/City Engineer Recommendation
It is recommended the City Council of the City of Cotati approve by motion a professional services agreement with Harris and Associates for the design of the 2023 Street Rehabilitation Project and authorize the City Manager to execute the professional services agreement and any needed amendments up to the project's design budget amount.
Background
This item is to seek Council approval of a design contract for completion of a street rehabilitation construction project spring of 2023. The Project follows the recommendations of the City’s Pavement Management Program and is consistent with its recently adopted Annual and MultiYear Capital Plans. The City is committed to investing in its roadway infrastructure and the investment includes both higher cost rebuilding streets in poor condition as well as lower cost paving (i.e. street preservation) of streets in good condition. Every summer for the past several years, the City has completed street pavement preservation and rehabilitation projects and has significantly improved the overall condition of its streets.
Analysis/Discussion
In April 2022, the City Engineering Division issued a request for qualifications and received proposals from sixteen engineering firms. After evaluating the proposals, City Staff determined Harris and Associates to be the most qualified for the 2023 Street Rehabilitation Project. The City requested and Harris and Associates has provided a proposal to prepare construction plans and specifications and bidding services for the City to contract with a construction company for construction in the spring of 2023. City Staff have reviewed the proposal and find it to be fair and reasonable. The streets identified for rehabilitation treatments this summer are informed by the recently completed Pavement Management Plan (PMP). Note that the final list of streets may change slightly during design due to budget or other considerations.
The PMP presents four scenarios of street investment from zero funding to the current level of funding. If the City is able to sustain an average annual street funding of approximately $3.4 million, the City’s Pavement Condition Index (from zero to 100) is projected to increase to 84 by
9.D
Packet Pg. 99
2026. With an overall PCI of 84, the City will have achieved its goal and have significantly reduced its annual street maintenance costs as primarily low cost treatments would be required.
Financial Considerations
The City’s proposed FY22/23 Annual Budget includes $320,000 for design. The proposal from Harris and Associates is $303,628 which is within this budgeted amount and, therefore, no budget amendment is needed for the action of approving the design contract. The funding is to come from the City’s General Fund.
Environmental Issues
The 2023 Street Rehabilitation Project is Categorically Exempt under Section 15301 of the California Environmental Quality Act (CEQA) Guidelines as it consists of the repair and maintenance of an existing facility.

Subject: Consider approving an Amendment to the GHD, Inc. agreement for the preparation of the Quick Strike Design and providing additional services for completion of additional environmental technical studies Date: June 28, 2022
Written by: Craig Scott, Director of Public Works/City Engineer Recommendation
It is recommended the City Council of the City of Cotati approve by motion Amendment Number 3 to the Quick Strike Project Professional Services Contract with GHD, Inc. for preparing an Extended Phase I study of Native American archaeological resource, and authorize City Manger to execute said amendment
Background
The City’s Design Contract for the Downtown and Civic Center Connectivity and Safety Project (Project) needs to be amended to complete additional environmental technical studies requested by Caltrans. In early 2021, the City was awarded Federal street grant funding for the Project as part of the Safe and Seamless Mobility Quick-Strike Program. The grant funds are from two sources: the Federal Coronavirus Response and Relief Supplemental Appropriations Act of 2021 (CRRSAA) and the One Bay Area Grant program (OBAG2). The Project consists of repaving West Sierra Avenue and La Plaza Street and providing enhanced bicycle and pedestrian safety features connecting Downtown to the Civic Center.
Analysis/Discussion
As a project to receive Federal transportation grant funds for construction, the Project is subject to the Federal Highway Administration requirements and Caltrans project delivery requirements.
Despite Caltrans having created a streamlined process for roadway paving rehabilitation projects, the City’s repaving project was found to be near sensitive cultural and historically significant areas and certain studies are not eligible for the streamlined process. Special technical studies are required which were unforeseen in the original scoping of the Project design as maps showing the delineation of these areas are not available to the public or City and, therefore, the Project’s vicinity to these sensitive areas was not known until recent Caltrans review. In any event, the repaving work is within the existing roadway section (i.e. does not disturb areas below the existing road base), so no actual impacts of any kind are expected. Upon completion of the technical studies (authorized by City Approval of Amendment 2 to GHD’s Design contract), Caltrans informed the City in late May of this year that an Extended Phase I (XPI) study is to be

conducted. The XPI will consist of 4 to 6 shallow hand augered test units as close to the road as feasible. The auger holes are to be dug within City Right-Of-Way (ROW). If the site is determined to not be present within the APE, the City has completed it’s environmental review and NEPA can be finalized. If the site is determined to be present within the APE then an Environmentally Sensitive Area-Action Plan (ESA-AP) would be developed and submitted to Caltrans for review and approval.
In addition to the added costs to complete the XPI and extended Caltrans review and approval process, these studies have added two to three months to the Project’s schedule and pushes Project construction from the late summer or fall of 2022 to the spring of 2023. With this second major delay (first being the requirement for technical environmental studies), the City has worked out an extremely aggressive schedule with Caltrans to submit the approval to construct package (“E-76”) to Caltrans by then end of July so that Caltrans can begin processing the application no later than August 12, for final authorization to construct issuance on or before the September 30, 2022 funding deadline.
Other Caltrans process issues are cropping up and include ROW Certification and Encroachment Permit issuance. These are routine processes but due to inexplicable delays by Caltrans in reviewing the submittals, obtaining approval of these documents are now of concern to the Project’s schedule. Each of these issues have been escalated to upper management in Caltrans and SCTA.
Financial Considerations
The City’s adopted FY 21/22 budget includes $200,000 for the Project. On July 27, 2021, City Council approved a Professional Service Agreement with GHD, Inc. in the amount of $114,581 for design and environmental services, which included the original scope and the cost of the first amendment (which together totaled $114,358).
The cost for the additional technical studies, authorized by City Council on January 11, 2022, was $16,272. The additional costs to complete the XPI and the extended Caltrans review process are extra work items with an added design cost of $24,727. The total revised, authorized Project budget amount is therefore $155,357, which is within the Project’s authorized budget amount.
The Project’s construction and construction management costs will be included within the proposed FY22/23 City budget.
Environmental Issues
The Downtown and Civic Center Connectivity and Safety Project is Categorically Exempt under Section 15301 of the California Environmental Quality Act (CEQA) Guidelines as it consists of the repair and maintenance of an existing facility.

Cotati, CA 94931
RE: Downtown and Civic Center Connectivity and Safety Project Design and Environmental Services – Amendment No. 3
Dear Craig:
GHD is pleased to provide this proposed scope of work amendment to our existing agreement for the Downtown and Civic Center Connectivity and Safety Project (aka “Quick Strike Project”) (Project).
Project Understanding
GHD will work with our subconsultant, Anthropological Studies Center (ASC) of Sonoma State University, to complete the work outlined in this project understanding, including project management, document review, coordination and assistance with completing the NEPA documentation.
Caltrans Local Assistance has requested that the project team complete an Extended Phase I study of Native American archaeological resource P-49-000952 to determine the presence or absence of the site within the project APE. The archaeological study is being conducted to satisfy National Environmental Policy Act (NEPA) requirements for the project federal funding.
Caltrans’ programmatic Section 106 agreement requires an Extended Phase I (XPI) study be conducted at the location of P-49-000952, based on the results of the archaeological survey conducted in April 2022. This process requires a XPI proposal be approved by Caltrans prior to fieldwork. The XPI will consist of 4 to 6 auger test units within the site as close to the road prism as feasible. Augers will be collected using a 4-inch diameter auger to a depth 20 cm below vertical impact. Soil will be screened through a ¼-inch mesh screen to separate any cultural material. All auger units will be backfilled. No cultural material will be collected; any identifiable cultural material will be redeposited in the unit from which it was excavated. Following the XPI testing, a report (XPIR) will be completed detailing the methods and findings of the study.
If the site is determined to be present within the APE, further consultation with Caltrans will be required. If, in consultation with Caltrans, it is determined that the proposed project activities will require an Environmentally Sensitive Area-Action Plan (ESA-AP), then such a plan will be developed by ASC and approved by Caltrans for use during construction activities. The in-progress HPSR will be finalized following the XPIR review, as well as the Finding of No Adverse Effect (FONEA) letter for this project.
Please note that the XPI study will not evaluate either the National Register of Historic Places (NRHP) nor the California Register of Historic Places (CPHR) eligibility of significance for any cultural resources that may be identified.
If the site is determined to be present within the APE and will likely be affected by proposed project activities, Caltrans may require additional work outside of this scope.

Agenda Staff Report
Item type: CONSENT CALENDAR (ACTION)
To: City Council/Successor Agency to the Former Cotati Community Redevelopment Agency
Subject: Update of the City of Cotati’s Conflict of Interest Code Date: June 28, 2022
Written by: Kevin Patterson, Deputy City Clerk
Recommendation
It is recommended that the City Council adopt a resolution amending the City of Cotati’s Conflict of Interest Code.
Background
The Political Reform Act, California Government Code §81000-91014, declares in part that “Public officials, whether elected or appointed, should perform their duties in an impartial manner, free from bias caused by their own financial interests or the financial interests of persons who have supported them”§81001(b). To this end the Political Reform Act (“Act”) requires many state and local public officials and employees to disclose certain personal financial holdings so that they and members of the public are made aware of potential areas of conflict in relation to their official duties. This information is disclosed on the Fair Political Practices Commission’s (FPPC) Form 700 (sometimes informally referred to as “SEIs” “Form 700s” or “conflict of interest statements”).
The Act also requires every government agency to establish and subsequently conduct a biennial review of its conflict of interest code to revise it as necessary to adapt to changed circumstances.
At its regular meeting of November 12, 2019, the Council adopted Resolution No. 2019-69, rescinding previous code amendments and approving the biennial code amendment for 2019.
Analysis/Discussion
Accurate disclosure is essential to monitor whether officials have conflicts of interest and to help ensure public trust in government. The City’s present conflict of interest code has been reviewed and it has been determined that the Code should be amended to reflect current employee job classifications, more accurate disclosure categories, and a definitions provision for a better understanding of classifications.
Our disclosure categories have been updated with numerical options that will best fit the filer’s requirements. A disclosure category is a description of the types of financial interests officials in
9.F
Packet Pg. 115
one or more job classifications must disclose on their Form 700s. The categories must be tailored to the financial interests affected and must not require public officials to disclose private financial information that does not relate to their public employment.
Defining classifications will help to determine the corresponding category(ies) in which a filer must disclose. Definitions of such classifications will now be listed in the appendices for clearer application while filing Form 700’s.
Financial Considerations
None.
Environmental Issues
The action of updating the City’s Conflict of Interest Code does not constitute a project as defined by California Environmental Quality Act Guidelines Section 15378; therefore, no further environmental review is required.

WHEREAS, the City Council now wishes in conformance with state law to amend its Conflict of Interest Code to reclassify the categories of employees with disclosure responsibilities under the Political Reform Act and to reclassify the types of financial interests which give rise to these responsibilities under the Act; and WHEREAS, the Fair Political Practices Commission has adopted a regulation, at 2 California Code of Regulations §18730, which contains a model conflict of interest code for the use of local agencies and which requires each local agency to incorporate by reference its own appendix which specifies the categories of positions within the agency that have disclosure responsibilities under the Act and the financial interests which must be disclosed by the position; and
WHEREAS, Title 2 of the California Code of Regulations §18730 may be amended from time to time by the Fair Political Practices Commission to conform to the Political Reform Act after public notices and hearings conducted by the Fair Political Practices Commission pursuant to the Administrative Procedure Act, Government Code §11370 et seq.; and Packet Pg. 117
WHEREAS, the City Council intends that amendments made to Title 2 of the California Code of Regulations §18730 apply to the City's Conflict of Interest Code as adopted by this resolution and replaces any Conflict of Interest Code of the City of Cotati previously in effect.

Subject: Award of Mosaic Wall Bench Seat Construction
Date: June 28, 2022
Written by: Craig Scott, Director of Public Works/City Engineer Recommendation
It is recommended that the City of Cotati City Council approve a resolution awarding a construction contract to Coastside Concrete and Construction, Inc. to construct the Mosaic Wall Benches, including related actions.
Background
In 2016, the City constructed the pedestrian plaza located at Old Redwood Highway and Highway 116. The plaza has curved walls covered with decorative tile and were designed to have three benches attached to them. However, the benches were not completed due to complications with closing out the project, including constructability of the benches and federal funding issues.
Despite several bidding efforts, the City has been unsuccessful in securing a contractor to install the benches.
Analysis/Discussion
The City advertised for informal bids and received no bids on the prescribed bid opening day.
Several days later, the City received a bid from Coastside Concrete and Construction, Inc. The City follows UCCA rules which provide that, if no bids are received, the City can negotiate a contract without further bidding (PCC, Sections 20166, 22038(b)). The following is the section language:
(c) If no bids are received through the formal or informal procedure, the project may be performed by the employees of the public agency by force account, or negotiated contract without further complying with this article.
City Staff has reviewed the bid proposal and has determined it is responsive and recommends award of the construction contract.
Financial Considerations
9.G
Packet Pg. 122
The proposed FY22/23 City annual budget has $46,000 allocated for the Mosaic Wall Benches Project and has carried this over from the prior year’s budget. The Construction bid is for an amount of $46,500. City staff requests a contingency of $6,500 for a total project budget of $53,000.
Environmental Issues
This Project is Categorically Exempt in accordance with the California Environmental Quality Act Guidelines Section 15301 Existing Facilities as the Mosaic Wall Benches Project is a minor alteration of an existing structure, therefore, no further environmental review is required.
