City of Escalon
Storm Drainage System
September 21, 2026
Escalon City Council
Item No. 2

Storm Drainage System at a Glance
City of Escalon • Storm Drainage System Overview
Escalon includes:
• 12 drainage areas (Each area collecting and moving rainwater from a different part of the City) • 7 drainage areas discharge to South San Joaquin Irrigation District (SSJID). • Drainage through Bellota, Mitchell, Walnut and Crossroads pumpstations • 3 drainage areas discharge to the City of Escalon Wastewater Treatment Plant. • Drainage through McHenry pumpstation
• 1 drainage area uses an on-site basin
• Water is held in the basin and does not discharge off-site • 1 drainage area that is undeveloped
• There is currently no stormwater discharge from this area

How Stormwater Moves Through the City
City of Escalon • Storm Drainage System Overview
Rainfall / Runoff
(Rainfalls on the streets, side walks,
yards, roof and other surfaces.

Runoff is when water flows aways
instead of soaking into the ground.)
Storm Drain System
(This is the network of inlets, pipes
and other structures that collects
rainwater and moves it through the
City.)
Drainage Area
(This is a specific part of the City
where the rainwater drains toward
the same part of the stormwater
system.)
Pump Station / Basin
(The facility with pumps that moves
stormwater from one location to
another with the Basin designed to
temporarily hold the water until it
can safely move through the system)
Final Discharge
(the point where the stormwater
leaves the City’s storm drainage
system and is sent to its final
destination)
Most storm flows ultimately leave the City through either SSJID facilities or the City wastewater treatment plant.

Drainage Area 2: Mitchell Pump Station
A key system constraint during major storm events
City of Escalon • Storm Drainage System Overview
Large drainage area, including part of
downtown.

About 2.5 feet of elevation change from
beginning to end.

Limited slope slows natural drainage.

Stormwater flows to Mitchell Pump Station.

Mitchell also receives flow from other drainage
areas.

Limited pumping capacity can affect drainage
during major storms

Drainage Area 7: Sanchez → Walnut → Shadowood
City of Escalon • Storm Drainage System Overview
Sanchez
Pump Station
Walnut
Pump Station
Shadowood
Pump Station SSJID
Drainage Area 7 relies on multiple pump stations operating in sequence.

An inhibitor (control or safety feature in the pump system that prevents one pump station from operating under certain conditions) prevents Sanchez from pumping to Walnut while Walnut is running.

Walnut has limited pumping capacity.

During major storms, water may arrive faster than Walnut can move it.

Sanchez basin provides temporary storage until Walnut has capacity.

Drainage Area 8: Brentwood & Mitchell
City of Escalon • Storm Drainage System Overview
Brentwood
Storm Basin
Brentwood
Pump Station
Mitchell
Pump Station SSJID
Brentwood basin provides temporary storage.

Waterman valve controls water flow to Mitchell.

A valve that can stop or allow water to flow.

Valve can be closed when Mitchell is handling high flows.

Water is temporarily held in Brentwood until Mitchell has capacity.

Valve is then opened to continue flow to SSJID
.

Drainage Area 6A: Managing Flow to Mitchell
City of Escalon • Storm Drainage System Overview
Selma
Pump Station
Gill
Pump Station
Mitchell
Pump Station SSJID
Drainage Area 6A flows from Selma
Pump Station to Gill Pump Station, then
to Mitchell Pump Station and ultimately
SSJID.

During significant storm events, Selma
may be turned off so stormwater can be
temporarily stored in the basin.

This operating strategy helps prevent
Mitchell Pump Station from becoming
overwhelmed.

Drainage Areas Discharging to the Wastewater Treatment Plant City of Escalon • Storm Drainage System Overview
Area 4

McHenry
Storm Station Main Trunk Line WastewaterTreatment Plant Area 6 McHenry Storm Station
Area 11 McHenry Avenue
Main Trunk Line
Areas 4, 6 and 11 ultimately route
stormwater toward the City of Escalon
Wastewater Treatment Plant.

The plant then receives and manages the
water as part of the City's overall water and
wastewater system.

During a major storm, large amounts of
water could potentially affect how much
flow the plant must handle.

Areas Without an Off-Site Discharge
City of Escalon • Storm Drainage System Overview
On-Site Basin Area Undeveloped Area
These areas do not currently discharge through the City's pump-station network.

These areas currently do not have infrastructure to move stormwater off-site.

There are no stormwater pipes, pump stations, or other connections in these areas to move the water to another part of the City's drainage system.

There also are no basins available to temporarily hold and manage the water.

Because there is no way to move the water off-site or hold it in a basin, the stormwater stays within the area.

The water is allowed to soak into the ground (percolate).

How the System Is Managed During Storm Events
City of Escalon • Storm Drainage System Overview
• Monitor conditions
• SCADA
• On-site inspections
• Monitor water levels and system capacity
• Coordinate pumps and valves
• Determine what to turn on or off, and when
• Use storage when needed
• Goal: Move as much stormwater as possible without overwhelming the system The goal is to maximize stormwater discharge while keeping the entire system operating safely and efficiently.

Primary System Challenges for Major Storm Events
City of Escalon • Storm Drainage System Overview
Limited Elevation
• Some areas of Escalon are very flat.
• Limited slope means water may need pumps or temporary storage.

Mitchell Capacity
• Pump stations can move only a limited amount of water at a time. • During major storms, water may arrive faster than it can be moved Interconnected Stations
• Some pump stations send water to other pump stations. • Staff coordinate pumps to prevent overloading downstream stations Temporary Storage
• Brentwood and Selma flows may need to be held temporarily. • Storage allows time for downstream capacity to become available

Key Takeaways
City of Escalon • Storm Drainage System Overview
• 12 drainage areas work together through gravity, pumps, and storage. • Most stormwater discharges to SSJID or the City's wastewater treatment plant. • Flat areas and limited pump capacity can slow drainage during major storms. • Pump stations are connected — one can affect another. • Staff coordinate pumps and valves to manage flow.
• Future improvements require looking at the whole system.

ITEM NO. 3

COUNCIL AGENDA ITEM
FOR SEPTEMBER 21, 2026
Prepared By: Sara Swift, Deputy City Clerk
Date: September 10, 2026
Subject: Conduct Interview of Measure P Advisory Committee Applicant, and if Council Agrees, Make Appointment for a Seat on the Measure P Advisory Committee
Recommendation:

Conduct interview of Measure P Advisory Committee applicant, and if Council agrees, make an appointment for a seat on the Measure P Advisory Committee.

Strategic Plan Priority:

This item is consistent with the Escalon 2025-2026 Strategic Plan Priority #2, Fiscal Stability, in that it proposes to continue an advisory Committee which would make recommendations to the Council on matters pertaining to community desires and priorities for use of Measure P funds.

Background and Discussion:

On November 5, 2024, the City of Escalon electorate approved “Measure P”, a one (1) percent sales tax measure.

On March 3, 2025, pursuant to an Agenda Item Request from Councilmember Engle and Mayor Hagan, the Escalon City Council discussed and considered various elements of a Measure P Advisory Committee.

On April 7, 2025, the City Council provided direction to City staff to form a Measure P Advisory Committee.

The Measure P Advisory Committee (“Committee”) is intended to advise the City Council—the governing body of the City charged with approving the annual budget—on the use of funds generated from ”Measure P”, a 1 percent sales tax measure approved by the Escalon voters in November 2024 and is established to seek input and feedback from the community in order to develop and prepare recommendations to the Escalon City Council on community desires and prioritized use of Measure P funds.

The Council intends that the Committee should meet no less than four times per year and the members shall otherwise be present in the community to solicit input and feedback on community desires and priorities for Measure P use, and that the Committee provide two presentations to the Council each year—prior to mid-year budget approval and fiscal year budget approval.

The adopted policy indicates that all Committee members must be registered voters in San Joaquin County and that the committee members shall be appointed by the City Council.

On July 21, 2025, City Council gave direction to staff to revise the Policy to reduce the membership of the Committee from five (5) persons to three (3) persons.

The current status of the committee is as follows:

Member Position Date Appointed Term Expires
Gabriella Vargas Committee Member 08/04/2025 08/31/2028 Vacant Committee Member 08/31/2027
Vacant Committee Member 08/31/2027
The application period for this vacancy commenced on July 29, 2026 and closed on September 9, 2026.

The advertisement was posted on City’s website and City’s Facebook page weekly during the application period. It was also advertised in the Escalon Times. The City received one (1) application.

The applicant’s voters’ registration has been verified and their application package is attached.

Registered voter in San Joaquin County:

1. Direct involvement in the Escalon community
Eligibility confirmation: I am a current resident of the City of Escalon and a registered voter in San Joaquin County. (Confirm before signing.)
Escalon is my hometown. I grew up here, attended local schools from elementary school through high school, and later returned to raise my own family in the community that helped shape me. My connection to Escalon is lifelong, and I have a deep personal interest in preserving the qualities that make it such a special place to live.

I am also a local entrepreneur and have started a family business with my children. Building a business together has given me the opportunity to teach them the value of hard work, responsibility, and contributing to the community.

As a parent and business owner, I care deeply about ensuring Escalon remains a place where young people can grow, families can thrive, and future generations have opportunities to succeed.

My involvement in the broader Central Valley includes serving on the Board of Directors of JP Sousa Farms, Inc., and working with local businesses, agricultural operations, public agencies, and community stakeholders throughout my professional career. I would welcome the opportunity to bring that experience and my lifelong connection to Escalon into a formal community service role.

2. Meeting availability
Mornings: [ x] Afternoons: [ x] Evenings: [x ] Weekends: [x ] I am willing to coordinate my schedule to attend committee meetings and participate in community outreach. [Confirm availability before submitting.]

3. Current occupation and employment history
I am currently an entrepreneur and business consultant, operating an independent consulting practice that helps customers navigate utility processes, strategic planning, and complex business challenges. I am also Managing Partner of All Clean Convenience LLC, DBA Snack Ninjas, and Gustine Land Holdings, and serve as a Board Member of JP Sousa Farms, Inc.

Ruben Manuel Ramirez | Measure P Advisory Committee
Prior to my entrepreneurial and consulting work, I spent more than 13 years with Pacific Gas and Electric Company in a progression of leadership roles involving strategy, policy, public safety, capital project coordination, innovation, and customer operations.

Most recently, as Principal, Strategy & Policy Alignment, I led strategic planning and policy implementation for initiatives involving clean energy vehicles, decarbonization, and innovation. My responsibilities included aligning enterprise priorities, financial forecasts, staffing, and long-term planning with regulatory and operational objectives.

In previous leadership roles, I worked closely with state and local agencies, municipalities, first responders, and critical facilities on wildfire preparedness, emergency response, and public safety initiatives. As a Critical Facilities Principal, I helped coordinate policies and programs intended to protect essential services and improve readiness during wildfire and other emergency events.

I also served as a leader in public works and permitting, coordinating large capital projects and working with municipalities and other agencies to resolve permitting challenges, improve project delivery, and support infrastructure development. My additional experience includes managing emerging products and marketplaces, customer outreach, corporate accounts, and enterprise-wide strategic initiatives.

These roles have given me extensive experience in public-sector collaboration, financial and operational planning, stakeholder engagement, and translating complex policy into practical, measurable results.

4. Educational / Business Background
I hold Bachelor of Science degrees in Corporate Finance and Financial Services from San Francisco State University.

My professional training includes Lean Six Sigma, Lean Leadership, certified problem-solving, and consultative sales.

My professional background combines financial stewardship, executive leadership, public policy, infrastructure planning, and hands-on entrepreneurship. During more than 13 years at PG&E, I led initiatives requiring coordination among state and local agencies, municipalities, first responders, regulators, and community stakeholders.

As a Critical Facilities Principal, I worked on wildfire preparedness and public safety initiatives involving essential facilities and emergency response partners. In public works and permitting leadership, I supported large capital projects by coordinating with municipalities and agencies, resolving permitting challenges, and improving project delivery. As Principal, Strategy & Policy Alignment, I led policy planning and implementation for clean energy vehicles, decarbonization, and innovation, connecting long-term strategy with financial forecasts, operational priorities, and regulatory requirements.

I also managed a $40 million revenue pipeline, helped develop new business opportunities and intellectual property, and established accountability systems to improve organizational performance.

Today, through my consulting practice, I help customers navigate complex utility processes and business challenges.

As a business owner, I am responsible for budgets, profit and loss, investment decisions, and operational performance. My service as a corporate board member and trustee of two family trusts has further strengthened my experience in governance, asset stewardship, and long-term financial oversight.

I would bring this combination of financial discipline, public-sector experience, and practical implementation expertise to the responsible prioritization and oversight of Measure P funds.

5. Public agency, nonprofit boards, committees, or community involvement I understand that this is an active advisory role requiring participation beyond formal committee meetings. I am prepared to attend scheduled meetings, including at least four meetings annually when feasible and practicable,

Ruben Manuel Ramirez | Measure P Advisory Committee
seek input from a wide and diverse range of community stakeholders outside of committee meetings, and work with City staff to understand the City’s budget, financial condition, obligations, limitations, and technical considerations. I would welcome the responsibility of helping prepare clear, evidence-based reports to the City Council, including recommendations before midyear budget approval and before adoption of the annual fiscal year budget. My experience in executive reporting, financial planning, and interagency coordination would allow me to contribute effectively while remaining open-minded and focused on the greater good of Escalon rather than the interests of any individual or organization.

I currently serve as a Board Member of JP Sousa Farms, Inc., a position I have held since January 2017. In this capacity, I advise on strategic direction, business diversification, financial performance, and long-term sustainability.

I also serve as trustee of two family trusts, with responsibilities involving asset stewardship, distributions, and longterm financial governance. While these are private fiduciary roles rather than public or nonprofit appointments, they have strengthened my understanding of responsible oversight and accountability.

Through my professional career, I have worked extensively with public agencies, regulators, local governments, first responders, and community stakeholders, including multi-agency public works coordination, emergency response planning, wildfire preparedness, and public safety initiatives. I would welcome the opportunity to apply that experience in a formal volunteer capacity serving the Escalon community.

6. Interest in the Committee and qualifications
Escalon is more than where I live—it is my hometown. I grew up here, attended elementary school through high school here, and returned to raise my own family. I love this town and the sense of community that makes it such a special place. Serving on the Measure P Advisory Committee would be an opportunity to give back to the community that helped shape me and to help preserve and strengthen it for future generations.

I have also started a business with my children, which has made me even more invested in Escalon’s future. I want them to grow up understanding the importance of hard work, community involvement, and responsible leadership.

I want to help ensure that Measure P funds benefit not only my children, but all of Escalon’s children, families, seniors, and residents. The decisions made today should create a community that future generations will be proud to call home.

My professional experience would allow me to contribute meaningfully to that responsibility. During more than 13 years at PG&E, I led complex initiatives involving public safety, infrastructure, financial planning, policy implementation, and coordination with government agencies. As a Critical Facilities Principal, I worked with state and local agencies, municipalities, first responders, and essential facilities on wildfire preparedness and safety initiatives. I also led public works and permitting efforts supporting large capital projects, and as Principal, Strategy & Policy Alignment, I led policy planning and implementation for clean energy vehicles, decarbonization, and innovation.

These experiences have taught me that effective public investments require careful prioritization, realistic budgets, collaboration, and accountability. My finance education, business ownership, consulting practice, and board experience would help me evaluate competing needs and develop recommendations that balance immediate priorities with long-term sustainability.

Most importantly, I would approach this role with humility and an open mind. I would listen to residents, seek out different perspectives, and work collaboratively with fellow committee members and City staff. I am not seeking this position to advance a personal agenda. I want to help ensure Measure P funds are used responsibly, transparently, and in ways that deliver meaningful benefits to the entire community.

Ruben Manuel Ramirez | Measure P Advisory Committee
I would be honored to serve Escalon and contribute to a future that preserves our small-town character while providing the safety, infrastructure, services, and opportunities our residents deserve.

7. Vision for the use of Measure P funds
My vision is for Measure P funds to strengthen Escalon today while protecting the opportunities and quality of life of future generations. Having grown up in Escalon and returned to raise my family, I understand the importance of preserving our small-town character while ensuring the City has the resources to meet the needs of a growing and changing community.

I believe the funds should be prioritized through a transparent, community-driven process that balances essential services, public safety, infrastructure, and investments that improve the lives of residents. My initial priorities would include maintaining reliable public safety services, addressing critical infrastructure and deferred maintenance, improving streets and public spaces, and supporting parks and programs that benefit youth, families, and seniors.

As a parent who has started a business with my children, I am particularly interested in ensuring that Escalon remains a community where young people have opportunities to learn, grow, and build a future. I would support thoughtful investments that strengthen our local economy, encourage responsible business development, and provide opportunities for the next generation, while ensuring that all spending is consistent with Measure P’s authorized purposes and the City’s financial priorities.

I would not approach the Committee with a predetermined spending agenda. I would first seek to understand the City’s financial position, existing commitments, infrastructure needs, and the priorities expressed by residents. I would encourage clear evaluation criteria, including urgency, community impact, cost, long-term maintenance obligations, and measurable outcomes.

Residents should also be able to understand how Measure P dollars are being used and what results those investments are producing. Regular, accessible reporting and meaningful opportunities for community feedback would help maintain public trust.

Ultimately, I want Escalon to remain the kind of town where families choose to put down roots, where children can grow up safely, where local businesses can succeed, and where residents of every generation feel proud to belong.

Measure P should be managed with that long-term responsibility in mind.

Statement of interest in volunteering
Escalon has been a part of my life since childhood. I grew up here, attended local schools from elementary school through high school, and returned to raise my family in the community I love. I have experienced firsthand the value of Escalon’s small-town character, its people, and the opportunities it provides to families. I want to help ensure those qualities are preserved and strengthened for my children and for future generations.

Starting a business with my children has reinforced my belief in the importance of community, responsibility, and creating opportunities for young people. I want them to see that giving back is just as important as building personal success. Serving on the Measure P Advisory Committee would allow me to demonstrate that commitment through meaningful public service.

Throughout my career, I have led complex organizations, managed financial and operational priorities, worked with state and local agencies, municipalities, and first responders, and helped implement initiatives involving public safety, infrastructure, and long-term policy. I would welcome the opportunity to apply those skills in service of Escalon.

Ruben Manuel Ramirez | Measure P Advisory Committee
I would approach this appointment with integrity, humility, and a willingness to listen. My commitment would be to represent the interests of the entire community, evaluate priorities objectively, and help recommend responsible investments that deliver lasting value.

I love Escalon, and I would be honored to give back to the town that helped raise me and is now helping raise my family.

PRESENTATIONS

1. Major Infrastructure Quarterly Report
CM French provided status updates on the surface water conveyance project and the wastewater treatment plant upgrade project—the City’s two major infrastructure projects. The water project remains paused while staff seeks funding to close an approximately $10 million funding gap. Staff is discussing leasing the City’s unused surface water allocation to a partner City to generate revenue toward the project and will return to Council when a funding proposal is available.

CM French reported improved compliance at the wastewater treatment plant, and therefore staff has proposed completing the approximately $40 million improvement program in phases. Initial work would focus on the industrial system. Project costs and timing are currently being discussed with the two industrial users. Phase one conceptual design is substantially complete, and a request for proposals using a design build process could be released as early as October, subject to funding arrangements.

STAFF COMMUNICATIONS & UPDATES

PWS Collins reported that the City paused AT&T’s fiber installation permit and project due to concerns regarding infrastructure damage, site conditions, and communication with residents. City staff is now working with AT&T to address restoration, reimbursement of City costs, advance notice to residents, and use of hydro excavation to locate utilities before the permit is to be reissued. Residents should be aware that temporary asphalt patches in sidewalks will be replaced with concrete and other repairs will be made upon AT&T re-starting work. Staff also replaced trees and improved the dry condition of a spot of turf after concerns were raised at the prior Council meeting regarding Farinelli Parkway.

Chief Hardgraves reported that DUI saturation patrols began over the weekend, per the City’s recently acquired grant, that a decoy vehicle was placed on McHenry Avenue to help discourage speeding, and that a new officer, William Teague, would be sworn in at the next Council meeting.

CM French reported that staff reviewed the proposal for a caretaker at the City’s Escalon-Bellota Road property, but that the residence is occupied by tenants, and the outbuildings raise habitability concerns. CM French then announced that HCD had officially certified the City’s 6th Cycle Housing Element.

MATTERS PRESENTED FROM THE AUDIENCE
Sherry Hill thanked City staff for supporting her granddaughter’s lemonade stand and expressed appreciation for their involvement in the community.

PUBLIC HEARINGS
None

ADMINISTRATIVE MATTERS

4. Consider Options Regarding Temporary and/or Permanent Prohibitions on Data Center Development in the City
Based on prior Council direction, CM French presented five options for regulating data centers, including:
1) an interim/temporary moratorium, 2) a Council adopted prohibition, 3) a ballot measure on the 2028 regular election, 4) holding a special election prior to 2028, or 5) an ordinance requiring voter approval of individual applications. Staff explained the differences in the options are the length of time it takes to approve, the cost, and the permanence of the action, i.e. whether a future Council could reverse the action.

Council discussed concerns regarding water and electricity demand, noise, air quality, regional groundwater impacts, and protection of the City’s quality of life. Councilmembers supported carrying forward options 1, 2 and 3, directing staff to bring forward an immediate restriction followed by a permanent ordinance and an opportunity for voters to decide the issue in 2028.

MOTION – it was m/s by Kay/Strohman to direct staff to pursue options 1, 2, and 3 by returning with a temporary moratorium, a Council adopted prohibition, and a measure for voter consideration in 2028.

Motion carried 5-0. MINUTE ORDER 59-26.

5. Consider Providing Direction to Staff Regarding the Use of FY 25-26 Budget Surplus and FY 26-27 Unassigned Funds
CM French restated that the City has a one-time budget surplus, including approximately $400,000 in FY 25-26 surplus and $327,000 in FY 26-27 unassigned funds resulting from higher than anticipated Measure P revenue. As part of the conversation to determine if and on what to spend the funds to address community needs, it was shared that approximately $300,000 was received from the school district following the pool closure, and a separate $180,000 bequest was provided and restricted to recreation purposes.

A community survey received 28 completed responses, with business attraction and retention ranked highest. Staff presented options including accelerated loan repayment, additional reserves or CalPERS payments, police retention and homeownership assistance, Liberty Business Park infrastructure planning, business assistance, a dog park and walking path at St. John, park restrooms, and railroad corridor beautification.

Resident, Sherry Hill commented that recreation funds should be discussed separately from the Measure P surplus. She then supported reducing the Civic Center loan to ensure the city is as fiscally responsible as possible, and also reserving funds for Liberty Business Park, so the city can generate new revenues.

Council debated the benefits of debt repayment, investment returns, economic development, and visible community improvements. Councilmember Kay suggested that police retention costs are an ongoing matter and therefore should be addressed through the annual budget process rather than relying on one-time funds.

Discussion of Liberty Business Park focused on infrastructure costs, coordination with Caltrans improvements at Brennan Avenue and State Route 120, existing developer obligations, and the risk of preparing designs without construction funding. Staff explained that some engineering analysis would be needed to develop reliable estimates. Council also discussed seeking additional community input, discussed St. John Park amenities and restrooms at Brentwood and Sanchez parks using the recreation funding.

MOTION – it was m/s by Engle/Kay to table the discussion for two meetings, with staff to provide, before the next meeting, confirmation of the Measure P Committee’s recommendations, staff recommendations for use of the $727,000 based on the information presented, and a rough estimate for an engineering report on extending utilities to Liberty Business Park. Motion carried 5-0. MINUTE ORDER 60-26.

6. Consider License Agreement (Reciprocal Agreement) between DeRuosi Nut and the City of Escalon for the Purposes of Harvest-Season Parking and Related Staging (DeRuosi Nut), and Recreation Parking and Related Municipal Purposes (City of Escalon) Based on prior Council direction, CM French presented a proposed ten-year reciprocal parking agreement with DeRuosi Nut. The City would have year-round use of DeRuosi Nut’s existing parking area at EscalonBellota and Arthur, and use of a new parking lot to be developed by DeRuosi Nut on the City-owned area north of Hogan Park except during the period between September 15 and November 15. DeRuosi Nut would use the City area during harvest and in non-recreation times outside of the period. DeRuosi would fund the temporary parking lot improvements including grading and installation of base rock estimated at $130,000.

One provision of note is that if the City terminates the agreement early, the City is responsible to fund a prorated share of the improvement costs.

MOTION – it was m/s by Strohman/Kay to approve the license agreement with DeRuosi Nut for harvest season parking and related staging, recreation parking, and related municipal purposes, with staff to explore the pedestrian path recommended by Mayor Pro Tem Walker. Motion carried 5-0. MINUTE ORDER 61-

26. 7. Proposed 2027 Gilton Solid Waste Management Rate Increase, and Proposition 218 Ballot Initiation DCSM Barber introduced the item, which is a required step per California Proposition 218 to allow the rate payers to weigh-in on the scheduled rate increase per the long-term agreement with the City. A 2.5% rate adjustment effective January 2027 is proposed. The franchise agreement permits an annual adjustment based on the Consumer Price Index or 2.5%, whichever is lower. This is the first step, and initiating the Proposition 218 process does not implement the rates, but requires public notice and an opportunity for a majority protest.

Resident Sherry Hill suggested that Measure P funds cover the first year of the Gilton increase.

Council discussed the effect of the franchise agreement, the approximately $24,000 proposed increase, and how the proposed adjustment should be explained to customers. Council requested that the notice clearly show the dollar impact on each billing cycle.

MOTION – it was m/s by Engle/Kay to accept the proposed Gilton monthly refuse rates for calendar year 2027 and direct staff to proceed with the Proposition 218 ballot process. Motion carried 5-0. MINUTE ORDER 62-26.

8. Consider Approving the Recreation Coordinator Job Description, Confirming the Classification and Compensation Plan to re-add the Recreation Coordinator Position, and Affirming the Salary Range DCSM Barber presented the updated Recreation Coordinator job description and salary range. The position, which was removed from the City’s Position Control List sometime after 2022 when the long time Recreation Coordinator left the position. At that time, the position was handled by committee. Recently, City staff seeing the value in the dedicated position, would like to reinstate the Recreation Coordinator position. Staff stated that the FY 2026-27 budget covers the salary increase.

Council discussed restoring the classification, whether the position should be recruited competitively, the duties currently performed by the employee assigned to recreation, and Council's role in classification and personnel decisions. Legal Counsel clarified that the resolution before Council approved the job description, classification, compensation plan, and salary range, but did not direct the appointment of a particular employee.

MOTION – it was m/s by Kay/Strohman to adopt Resolution No. 41-26 approving the Recreation Coordinator job description, confirming the classification and compensation plan to add the Recreation Coordinator position, and affirming the salary range. Motion carried 5-0. MINUTE ORDER 63-26.

9. Consider Adopting the Second Amendment to City Manager’s Employment Agreement and Approving Update to City Salary Schedule
Legal Counsel presented the Second Amendment of the City Manager’s Employment Agreement following the City Manager's positive annual performance review. The amendment extends the agreement by two years through November 2032, increases the City Manager's salary by 4 percent, increases severance from seven to eight months, and extends the post-election termination period from 120 to 150 days. All other terms remain unchanged.

Councilmembers and members of the public thanked CM French for his leadership, professionalism, accessibility, and service to the City.

MOTION – it was m/s by Engle/Strohman to approve the Second Amendment to the City Manager's Employment Agreement and the revised City salary schedule. Motion carried 5-0. MINUTE ORDER 64-

26. COUNCIL COMMUNICATIONS
Councilmember Kay thanked staff for responding to recent concerns and requested, with Council support, that staff investigate available properties and grant funding for public parking, solar canopies, and electric vehicle charging stations.

Councilmembers Kay, Strohman, Walker, and Hagan reflected on the 25th anniversary of the September 11 attacks, encouraged attendance at the Fire Department's memorial remembrance, and emphasized community involvement, unity, and support for first responders and service members.

Councilmember Engle encouraged the public to attend the Lions Club Car Show on September 12 and announced an October 10 bingo fundraiser benefiting the Hogan Park Expansion Project.

ADJOURNMENT
There being no further business, Mayor Hagan adjourned the meeting at approximately 9:56 PM.

Respectfully submitted,

COUNCIL AGENDA ITEM
FOR SEPTEMBER 21, 2026
Prepared By: Trevin W. Barber, Development & Community Services Manager Prepared Date: August 14, 2026
Subject: Award of RFP 2026‑05 – On‑Call Planning Services Recommendation:

Award RFP 2026‑05 – Planning Services to Provost & Pritchard Consulting Group (P&P) as the highest‑ranked and most qualified firm and Authorize the City Manager to execute a Professional Services Agreement with P&P.

Strategic Plan Priority:

Not directly related.

Background:

On June 20, 2026, the City released RFP 2026‑05 – Planning Services seeking qualified firms to provide on‑call planning support for current planning, long‑range planning, Housing Element implementation, CEQA review, permit streamlining, and special projects. The City received nine proposals:
· BAE Urban Economics
· Interwest Consulting Group (SAFEbuilt)
· J.B. Anderson Land Use Planning (JBAP)
· Michael Baker International (MBI)
· Provost & Pritchard Consulting Group (P&P)
· Raney Planning & Management, Inc.
· RFM Land Use Consulting, LLC
· Sagecrest Planning + Environmental
· Sanbell
Proposals were evaluated by two staff reviewers using the scoring rubric included in the RFP. Scores were averaged to produce a final ranking.

Discussion:

All proposals were initially evaluated strictly on the written materials submitted and scored

according to the rubric established in the RFP. Reviewers assessed each firm’s qualifications, understanding of Escalon’s planning needs, proposed work approach, staffing capacity, cost schedule, and overall quality of the written proposal.

Firms that clearly articulated relevant small‑city planning experience, demonstrated familiarity with Escalon’s growth‑management and Housing Element obligations, and provided a well‑structured approach to on‑call service delivery received higher scores. Proposals that were less detailed, more generic, or did not directly address Escalon’s planning context scored lower.

Capacity and availability were evaluated based on the staffing plans and organizational structures described in the proposals. Firms that presented a clear day‑to‑day point of contact, senior oversight, and multidisciplinary support scored higher than firms with limited staffing depth or less defined coordination plans.

Cost schedules were reviewed for reasonableness but were not heavily weighted. Because this is an RFQ for on‑call services without a defined scope of work, and because most hourly rates fell within similar ranges, cost did not materially influence rankings.

The final averaged scores reflect the relative strength of each written proposal. Interwest and Provost & Pritchard submitted the most complete and Escalon‑specific proposals, demonstrating strong alignment with the City’s planning needs. Mid‑range firms showed solid qualifications but did not present the same level of specificity or depth. Lower‑ranked firms provided less detailed proposals or demonstrated limited capacity for the breadth of services required. Scores from both reviewers were averaged and combined for a final ranking.

Final Ranking

1. Interwest – 97

2. P&P – 94

3. Sanbell – 82

4. MBI – 78

5. JBAP – 77

6. Sagecrest – 77

7. BAE – 74

8. Raney – 58

9. RFM – 44
After completing the initial scoring based solely on the written proposals, the City scheduled interviews with the two highest-ranked firms, Interwest and Provost & Pritchard. These interviews were conducted during the first two weeks of August and followed a structured format focused on Escalon’s planning needs, communication expectations, and the City’s growth-management priorities. The interviews were used only to clarify the information already presented in the written proposals and did not introduce new scoring criteria.

Through these discussions, the City gained greater clarity regarding each firm’s fit for Escalon’s operating environment, staffing needs, and long-range planning objectives. While both firms demonstrated strong qualifications, Provost & Pritchard showed a clearer alignment with Escalon’s small-city planning context, day-to-day workflow needs, and the City’s ongoing efforts to modernize its growth-management framework. Based on the written proposal scores and the additional insight

gained through interviews, the City determined that Provost & Pritchard is the best overall fit and recommends moving forward with award of the contract.

Fiscal Impact:

The Professional Services Agreement with Provost & Pritchard establishes an annual not‑to‑exceed amount of $30,000 per fiscal year for on‑call planning services. Costs will be charged to Account 100‑6400‑4300 (Professional Services – Development Services) and to project‑specific accounts as individual task orders are authorized. The agreement does not create any unbudgeted General Fund obligation, and all expenditures will remain within approved departmental appropriations.

RE: Request for Qualifications – Planning Services
Mr. Barber:

Provost & Pritchard Consulting Group (P&P/Provost & Pritchard) is pleased to submit our qualifications to provide on-call planning services for the City of Escalon (City/Escalon). We understand the City is seeking a responsive, knowledgeable, and service-oriented planning team to support day-to-day planning functions, long-range planning initiatives, Housing Element implementation, environmental review, permit streamlining, and special projects on an as-needed basis.

Escalon’s priorities are clear: modernize its growth management framework in a way that respects the community’s character, support incremental and appropriate housing growth, reduce ambiguity in development standards, and make the permit process more predictable for residents, businesses, and applicants. To meet these priorities, the City needs a consultant team that can step into City workflows, communicate clearly with staff and applicants, prepare defensible staff reports and conditions, and provide senior-level guidance when policy, California Environmental Quality Act (CEQA), housing, zoning, or interagency issues become more complex.

Provost & Pritchard is well suited for this role because we already provide contract planning and on-call planning support to Central Valley communities with similar staffing, workload, and growth-management challenges. Our planners currently support Central Valley cities including Fowler, Madera, Porterville, Kingsburg, Manteca, Tulare, Mendota, and Parlier, where we assist with entitlement processing, development review, staff reports, zoning and subdivision ordinance updates, Housing Element implementation, annual reporting, CEQA documentation, Planning Commission and City Council support, day-to-day coordination with applicants and agency staff, and special projects.

Our proposed team is led by Wyatt Czeshinski as Project Manager and primary point of contact for day-to-day coordination and task order delivery. Josh Bridegroom will serve as Principal-in-Charge, providing senior oversight and strategic guidance throughout the contract.

Technical leads for current planning, long-range planning initiatives, environmental review, and special projects have also been identified, demonstrating the depth and breadth of the Provost & Pritchard team. This structure gives the City a clear day-to-day contact, senior-level accessibility, and access to a broader multidisciplinary team when assignments require specialized technical expertise.

P&P’s approach to on-call planning services is to scale the level of effort to each task order, confirm expectations up front, communicate early when issues arise, and deliver clear work products that City staff can rely on.

All conditions contained in this proposal are valid for a period of at least 90 days from the submittal deadline.

Wyatt Czeshinski will serve as Project Manager and primary point of contact. He can be reached at (559) 449-2700 or [email protected]. Sara Allinder is authorized to negotiate on behalf of and contractually bind Provost & Pritchard. 455 W Fir Ave • Clovis, CA 93611 • (559) 449-2700

Founded in 1968, P&P has nearly six decades of experience supporting cities, counties, special districts, and public agencies with practical, locally grounded consulting services.

P&P is organized to support municipal clients with both day-to-day staff augmentation services and specialized technical assignments. Our planning and environmental staff work closely with in-house engineers, GIS specialists, biologists, surveyors, public outreach professionals, and graphic design staff, allowing the City access to a broad range of capabilities through a single consultant team. This structure is especially useful for on-call planning assignments, where the level of support may vary from routine entitlement processing and staff reports to zoning and subdivision ordinance updates, policy work, Housing Element implementation, environmental review, mapping, and special projects.

FIRM ORGANIZATION & OWNERSHIP
As an employee-owned corporation, P&P is a closely held company. Only employees may be owners of the corporation. Company stock is owned by individual employee shareholders and the Employee Stock Ownership Plan. The firm is led by chief officers, a board of directors, and directors of operations who provide corporate governance, operational oversight, and quality management across the firm’s offices and service areas.

OFFICE RESPONSIBLE FOR THE CONTRACT
The principal office responsible for implementation of this contract will be P&P’s Clovis office, where P&P’s core planning team is based, including Wyatt Czeshinski and Sara Allinder. Josh Bridegroom, Principal-in-Charge, is based in the Modesto area and additional support would be provided from P&P’s Visalia office. This structure allows our team to provide responsive remote coordination, in-person attendance when needed, and flexible staffing based on the City’s task-specific needs.

ADDITIONAL INFORMATION

HOW WE WILL SUPPORT ESCALON
P&P understands that Escalon’s on-call planning contract must be practical, responsive, and right-sized to the City’s workload and budget.

The City is not seeking unnecessary process or staff. It needs dependable planning support that can help staff keep applications, policy updates, environmental review, and customer service expectations moving forward within the limits of authorized task orders.

RIGHT-SIZED SUPPORT FOR A TARGETED BUDGET
The City’s requested services are broad, but the contract amount is limited. P&P will manage each assignment with a clear understanding of the authorized scope, schedule, and budget before work begins. For each task order, we will confirm the objective, available information, expected deliverables, level of City staff involvement, review periods, and budget limitations. This allows our team to match the level of effort to the actual assignment and avoid unnecessary staffing layers.

FASTER, CLEARER PERMIT PROCESSING
One of Escalon’s stated priorities is to streamline the permitting experience for residents, businesses, and applicants. P&P can support this effort through application completeness review, zoning consistency analysis, entitlement processing, preparation of findings and conditions of approval, staff reports, public notices, and Planning Commission or City Council hearing materials. We can also help evaluate application forms, checklists, standard comments, and review procedures to improve clarity and reduce avoidable delays.

GROWTH MANAGEMENT AND HOUSING IMPLEMENTATION
Escalon’s growth management priorities require a balance between State housing obligations, infrastructure realities, and the community’s desired pace and character of growth. P&P has successfully navigated this balance in our long-range policy work and can provide guidance to the City in drafting or administering their own growth management initiatives. P&P has also drafted Housing Element programs and implemented Housing Elements through annual progress reporting, rezoning programs, objective design standards, zoning and subdivision ordinance updates, annexation policy development, Local Agency Formation Commission (LAFCo) coordination, and focused planning studies. Our goal is to help the City develop tools that are legally defensible, clear to applicants, and practical for staff to administer.

ENVIRONMENTAL REVIEW INTEGRATED WITH PLANNING
P&P’s planning and environmental staff work closely together to evaluate CEQA and NEPA requirements early in the planning process. Our team can prepare and review exemptions, Initial Studies, Negative Declarations, Mitigated Negative Declarations, addenda, notices, and related technical information. Integrating environmental review with entitlement and policy work helps reduce surprises, improve schedule predictability, and support defensible decision-making.

MULTIDISCIPLINARY DEPTH WITHOUT OVERCOMPLICATION
P&P’s in-house team includes planners, environmental specialists, GIS analysts, engineers, surveyors, public outreach staff, graphic designers, and other technical professionals. This gives Escalon access to specialized support for mapping, infrastructure coordination, environmental review, grant-support graphics, public-facing materials, and technical review without requiring a large consultant team for every task. Staff will be assigned only when their expertise is needed and authorized by the City.

June 2026
1 INTRODUCTION
The City of Escalon (“City”) is soliciting proposals from qualified and experienced planning firms to provide On‑Call Planning Services to support the City’s Development and Community Services Department. The City seeks a responsive, knowledgeable, and service‑oriented consultant team capable of assisting with day‑to‑day planning functions, specialized technical analysis, long‑range planning initiatives, and project‑specific assignments on an as‑needed basis.

PURPOSE
The purpose of this Request for Proposals is to establish a professional services agreement with a qualified planning firm to provide on‑call, as‑needed planning support to the City of Escalon. The City seeks to supplement its internal capacity with a consultant team capable of delivering timely, high‑quality planning services across a range of current and long‑range planning functions.

The City is seeking assistance in the areas of: Current and Long-Range Planning Services, Housing Element Implementation, Environmental Review, Permit Streamlining & Customer Service, and Special Projects. Two key strategic priorities for the City are: 1) to establish a modern growth management framework that recognizes the size and desires of the community while encouraging incremental-scale growth that assists families locate in town and assists in meeting state housing goals to ensure the community is able to grow as they prefer; and 2) to streamline the permitting experience for residents, businesses, and applicants. The selected firm will support this effort by helping the City modernize processes, reduce delays, improve clarity in development standards, and enhance customer service.

This includes preparing clear staff reports and conditions of approval, assisting with zoning and policy updates that remove ambiguity, supporting Housing Element implementation, and providing technical expertise that enables faster, more predictable permit processing.

The consultant will assist the City Manager and the Development and Community Services Department in managing fluctuating workloads, meeting statutory deadlines, advancing priority planning initiatives, and supporting customer service expectations for residents, applicants, and the development community. Services may include entitlement processing, zoning and policy updates, housing‑related compliance, environmental review, special studies, and other planning tasks assigned through individual task orders.

The total value of all work performed under this contract shall not exceed $30,000 per fiscal year. The City intends to enter into a Professional Services Agreement with the selected firm for an initial one‑year term, with up to two one-year extensions.

BACKGROUND
The City of Escalon is a quaint community located in the breadbasket of the world in California’s Central Valley (San Joaquin County) and is surrounded on all sides by agricultural land and open spaces. The City, originally founded in the 1850’s and laid out in the 1890’s, was incorporated in 1957. The City’s current population is approximately 7,500 people.

Planning Services
June 2026
2 The City is located between larger cities—Stockton to the northwest and Modesto to the south—and smaller communities like Riverbank and Oakdale to the southeast, Ripon to the southwest and Manteca and Lathrop to the west.

URBAN PLANNING IN ESCALON
The City of Escalon’s General Plan serves as the community’s long-range policy document guiding land use, development, infrastructure, and community character. The current General Plan was last comprehensively updated in 2005, with subsequent amendments adopted over time to address specific policy areas, zoning consistency updates, and State law requirements. While the General Plan continues to provide the foundational framework for growth and development, several elements now require modernization to reflect updated State mandates, regional conditions, and the City’s evolving priorities.

The City’s Housing Element is part of the 6th Cycle (2023–2031) and is currently in the final stages of certification with the California Department of Housing and Community Development (HCD). The City recently submitted its Third Adoption Draft, addressing all remaining comments from HCD’s review letter. The City anticipates receiving a “substantial compliance” determination from HCD in June 2026, enabling the City Council to adopt the Housing Element and maintain compliance with State housing law. Once certified, the Housing Element will guide rezoning, objective design standards, housing programs, and annual reporting obligations throughout the cycle.

Together, the General Plan and Housing Element establish the policy foundation for land use decision-making, housing production, and long-range planning in Escalon. The City’s on-call planning consultant may be asked to support implementation tasks, zoning consistency updates, and related policy work that ensures alignment with State requirements and local priorities.

CONSULTING SERVICES
The City of Escalon is seeking proposals from qualified firms or individuals to provide on-call planning services to support the City Manager, the Development and Community Services Department, and other City departments as needed. The City intends to establish agreements with a firm to provide professional planning support on an as-needed, task-order basis, depending on expertise, availability, and cost.

Consultants may be requested at various professional levels—including Principal Planner, Senior Planner, Associate Planner, Assistant Planner, Planning Technician, or other classifications appropriate to the assigned work. Services may be required on a part-time or full-time basis, depending on workflow demands, project deadlines, and staffing needs.

Consultants will primarily support the Current Planning and Long-Range Planning functions of the Development and Community Services Department, including entitlement processing, zoning and policy updates, housing-related compliance, environmental review, and customer-service-oriented permit streamlining. Consultants may also be assigned to support other City departments when planning-related expertise is required.

Work will generally occur during regular business hours, with occasional evening assignments for Planning Commission or City Council meetings, community workshops, or project-specific needs.

COUNCIL AGENDA ITEM
FOR SEPTEMBER 21, 2026
Prepared By: John Andoh, Transit Manager
Date: September 14, 2026
Subject: Approve Surplus of City Owned Equipment and Authorize Disposal of Equipment According to the adopted City of Escalon Surplus Policy Recommendation:

Approve surplus of City owned equipment and authorize the disposal of the equipment according to the adopted City of Escalon Surplus Policy.

Strategic Plan Priority:

This item is not directly consistent with the Escalon 2025-2026 Strategic Plan.

Background:

The Escalon City Council, in October 2013, adopted Resolution No. 35-13 which established the policy for disposition of surplus property or equipment. As indicated in the Policy, the City Manager is to present a list of desired surplus property or equipment which is valued at over $500 to the City Council at a scheduled meeting for review and consideration of next steps. If approved, items will be disposed of through one of four methods: 1) Trade in, 2) Donation, 3) Sold through appropriate methods or 4) Disposal.

The appropriate methods of sale are as follows:
a) Public Auction – Surplus property may be sold at public auction. The City may contract with a professional auctioneer.
b) Sealed Bids – Sealed bids may be solicited for the sale of surplus property. Surplus property disposed of in this manner shall be sold to the highest responsible bidder. c) Selling for Scrap – Surplus property may be sold as scrap if it is deemed that the value of the raw materials exceeds the value of the property as a whole. d) Negotiated Sale – Surplus property may be sold outright if it is determined that only one known buyer is available or interested in acquiring the property.

All surplus property for sale is sold “as is” and “where is,” with no warranty guarantee, or representation of any kind, expressed or implied, as to the condition, utility or usability of the property offered for sale.

State law prohibits public employees from purchasing surplus property from their employer (Government Code §1090)
After equipment has been disposed of, the City Manager is to report back to Council on all revenues generated from surplus equipment.

Discussion:

Subsequent to the discontinuance of the Miocar Carshare Program, the vehicle acquired through this contract was assigned to City Hall administration, resulting in the 2006 Ford Five Hundred Sedan, VIN: 1FAFP231X6110727 and License Plate Number: 1134714, purchased in September 2005 becoming redundant, and therefore due to its age, the City desires to surplus the vehicle and sell it per the adopted the Policy. The vehicle has 73,162 miles on it as of the writing of the report. The vehicle is operable.

This item is to recommend that Council surplus the vehicle, and authorize staff to dispose (sell, per option #3) of the adopted Escalon Surplus Policy.

Fiscal Impact:

The City expects a neutral fiscal impact from the surplus and disposal of the aforementioned property. This equipment has been used efficiently as intended at original purchase and has exceeded its useful life. Equipment will be sold via on-line public auction by PublicSurplus.com and any costs associated with the sale will be covered by the purchaser.

Attachments:

None.

The person claiming to be the representative had extensive knowledge of her account and asked for authentication codes that were sent to her cell phone, which she provided. Her cell phone stopped working shortly after that. She went to the cell carrier’s store and learned that her phone number had been ported to an Ultra Mobile pre-paid cell phone account. The scammers then were able to access her bank account to transfer funds and made several credit purchases using her identity.

COUNCIL AGENDA ITEM FOR
SEPTEMBER 21, 2026
Prepared By: Ivette Arevalo, Recreation Coordinator
Date: August 25, 2026
Subject: Recreation Sport Program Update- August 2026
Below is a summary of the August 2026 Recreation Department activities:

Program Updates
Flag Football
Flag Football registration closed with a record 411 players and 51 teams, making 2026 the largest season in program history.

Of the 411 players, 263 are boys and 148 are girls. Female participation also reached an all-time high, with 148 girls registered. The new 6U Girls division was successfully formed, giving the program separate boys and girls divisions at every age level for the first time.

Year Boys Girls Total
2022 204 9 204
2023 239 24 263
2024 267 74 341
2025 278 102 380
2026 263 148 411
The 8U+ evaluations and drafts are scheduled for September 3 at Hogan Park. The season will run October 10–November 21, with eight games planned per team. Weekday games and occasional doubleheaders may be used as needed to complete the schedule before Thanksgiving.

Playoffs are unlikely this season due to the limited timeframe but remain a goal for future seasons.

Adult Soccer
The Recreation Department’s new Adult Coed Soccer League will begin its inaugural season on Sunday, August 30. The pilot league has three teams and 59 registered players.

The league will play 7v7 coed soccer, with each team scheduled for eight games. Based on player feedback, games will primarily be played on Sunday mornings, with select Friday evening games and doubleheaders incorporated into the schedule.

The first season will provide staff an opportunity to evaluate participation, scheduling, field use, and overall interest to determine opportunities for future growth and expansion of the program.

Recreation Sport Program Update- August 2026

Youth Soccer
The 2026 Youth Soccer season is currently underway with a record 941 players, making it the largest season in program history. Games began August 1 and will continue through September 26.

This season also included several program improvements, including expanded field capacity and new equipment supported through grant funding. Staff continue to monitor scheduling, officiating, and field needs as participation grows.

For the first time, the Recreation Department plans to hold playoff/championship games for the older divisions following the regular season. Games are scheduled for September 28–29, providing an opportunity to evaluate the format for future seasons.

Administrative Updates:

The Recreation Department is investing an additional $300 per year in TeamSideline to add the referee module. The addition of this module will improve the administration and management of the Junior Referee Program. The module allows staff to assign games, manage schedules, monitor referee availability, and track assignments within a single system. Junior Referees will also be able to view their schedules directly through the mobile app. Separately, Celinda has transitioned all referees into Paychex, further streamlining the payroll process.

Currently, Recreation Department staff spend approximately 3–5 hours each week coordinating referee schedules, confirming availability, and making adjustments. The referee module is expected to reduce this workload by approximately 12 staff hours per month. At an estimated fully burdened staff rate of $95 per hour, this represents approximately $1,140 in staff time savings per month, or $13,680 annually.

The time saved can be redirected toward higher-value Recreation Department functions, including assisting coaches and parents, strengthening sponsorship outreach, and supporting increased Community Center rentals.

ITEM NO. 11

COUNCIL AGENDA ITEM
FOR SEPTEMBER 21, 2026
Prepared By: John Andoh, Transit Manager
Date: September 14, 2026
Subject: Consider the Use of Federal Transit Administration Section 5311 Funding for Various Capital Purchases, and Authorize the Transit Manager to Execute an Agreement with Pacific Gas and Electric Company for Construction of Infrastructure Related to Electric Charging of Vehicles Located at 2060 McHenry Avenue
Recommendation:

Consider the use of Federal Transit Administration (FTA) Section 5311 funding for various capital purchases, and authorize the Transit Manager to execute an Agreement with Pacific Gas and Electric Company for construction of infrastructure related to electric charging of vehicles at 2060 McHenry Avenue.

Background and Discussion:

The California Air Resources Board (CARB) enacted the Innovative Clean Transit (ICT) rule. The ICT rule was adopted in December 2018 and requires all public transit agencies to gradually transition to a 100 percent zero-emission bus (ZEB) fleet. Beginning in 2029, 100% of new purchases by transit agencies must be ZEBs, with a goal for full transition by 2040. It applies to all transit agencies that own, operate, or lease buses with a gross vehicle weight rating greater than 14,000 lbs. The City operates two transit cutaways that are gasoline powered that weigh 14,500 lbs. that were purchased in 2019 and 2022.

In June 2023, the City Council adopted the eTrans ZEB Rollout Plan to show how it is planning to achieve a full transition to zero-emission technologies by 2040. The plan recommended transitioning to ZEB vans.

In 2024, the San Joaquin Council of Governments (SJCOG) awarded Escalon two (2) grants to assist in the funding toward the ZEB transition. The first grant, in the amount of $640,000, and for which this public hearing is for, is from the Congestion Mitigation Air Quality (CMAQ) program which will be flexed to the FTA Section 5311 program. The second grant is Regional Transportation Impact Fee (RTIF), which the City was allocated $800,000. Collectively, $1,440,000 will cover the cost to purchase two ZEB compliant vans as well as associated charging infrastructure.

To help the City fully transition to ZEB, the Pacific Gas and Electric Company (PG&E) has an EV (Electric Vehicle) Fleet Program, which helps fleets easily and cost-effectively install charging infrastructure. The EV Fleet program is a comprehensive program that encompasses incentives and rebates, site design, permitting, construction and activation. To be eligible for the EV Fleet program, a participant has to be a PG&E electric customer, own or lease the property, have authority to install

charging infrastructure on the site, allow for an easement for the EV Fleet projects, acquire at least 2 EVs, acquire and deploy a minimum of two medium- or heavy-duty EV vehicles by 2028, agree to all requirements and review and agree to the EV Fleet program terms and conditions.

Furthermore, the City would be required to provide data related to EV usage for at least 5 years after the chargers are installed and operational and make a commitment to operate and maintain the EV charging equipment for at least 10 years.

It should be noted that:

1. PG&E is responsible for the EV Service Connection to the meter, and the City is responsible for the behind-the-meter infrastructure and the chargers, including construction, ownership, operation, maintenance, and related costs. (Ownership; Customer-Owned Infrastructure.)

2. The agreement runs for 10 years from the date the chargers become operational. If the City terminates early, it is responsible for removal costs and PG&E’s prorated equipment, design, and installation costs. (Term; Customer Termination.)

3. Requested changes to the project scope may result in redesign costs of up to $15,000 per request.

If the City withdraws after execution, PG&E may also recover fees and costs already incurred. (Preliminary Design; Project Scope.)

4. PG&E may require an easement and has ongoing access rights related to electric service and its facilities. If an easement is required, the City must return it within 30 days or PG&E may cancel participation and recover costs. (Easement Requirement.)

5. PG&E may terminate or suspend the City’s participation, with or without cause and for any reason, with reasonable advance notice. PG&E may also modify the program as necessary to comply with California Public Utilities Code directives. (Changes; PG&E Termination.)

6. The agreement contains broad indemnification and insurance obligations in PG&E’s favor, including additional insured and primary coverage requirements.

The City Attorney reviewed the Agreement and has agreed it is legally sufficient to implement.

It is anticipated that the vehicles will be ordered in early 2027 and delivered by late 2027, and the infrastructure will be in place by 2028 using the two above-mentioned funding sources.

The Public Hearing was advertised in the Escalon Times prior to the hearing, and on the transit buses consistent with the City’s Public Participation Plan.

Fiscal Impact:

There is no impact to the general fund associated with the approval of this item. The project is funded using CMAQ flexed to FTA Section 5311 funding and RTIF funding in the amount not to exceed $1,440,000. Staff will return to City Council at a future date to purchase the vehicles, also under these funding sources, as well as the associated charging infrastructure once Caltrans has approved the grant and issued a Standard Agreement to the City.
