● The degree to which the General Plan complies with the State of California General Plan Guidelines and the date of the last revision to the General Plan; ● A listing of sites rezoned to accommodate that portion of the City's share of the regional housing need for each income level that could not be accommodated in the City’s Vacant Land Inventory; ● The number of net new units of housing, including both rental housing and for-sale housing, that have been issued a completed entitlement, a building permit, or a certificate of occupancy, thus far in the housing element cycle, and the income category, by area median income category, that each unit of housing satisfies; and
● The number of applications submitted pursuant to Government Code Sec. 65913.4(a), the location and the total number of developments approved pursuant to Government Code Sec. 65913.4(b), the total number of building permits issued pursuant to Government Code Sec. 65913.4(b), and the total number of units including both rental housing and for sale housing by area median income category constructed using the process provided for in subdivision (b) of Section 65913.4.
Please note that the Housing Element component of this report consists of specific forms prescribed by HCD. Because the forms require an understanding of the instructions used to complete them, a summary of the results is provided herein, while Attachment B provides the City’s analysis of its Housing Element program implementation.
Purpose of the General Plan
The City of Etna General Plan, simply described, is the City's "constitution" for development. It represents the efforts the City has undertaken to consider and address the needs and expectations of its residents relative to development in the City and to enshrine these needs and expectations in a guiding document.
This "constitution" is formatted within the legal framework established by the State at the time of adoption and is based on knowledge of existing potentials and limitations concerning the City of Etna at that time. 2022 General Plan Annual Progress Report Page 1
The General Plan was developed through establishing basic goals, policies, and programs to resolve and/or direct significant community issues.
In addition to the City referring to this document when dealing with matters affecting the physical, economic, and social development of the community, the General Plan is also referred to by individuals or businesses contemplating potential development activity within the City. Goals in the General Plan also assist the City in seeking grants and other funding to address local issues and needs.
Status of the General Plan
The City of Etna General Plan is comprised of seven state-mandated elements and one optional element that individually address specific topics of community importance. The seven required elements are Land Use, Circulation, Open Space, Conservation, Noise, Safety, and Housing, with the City opting to include a Public Facilities element as well. Aside from the Housing Element, which was most recently updated In August 2016, the City of Etna General Plan was adopted in September 2005. At the time seven of the eight elements were adopted in 2005 and at the time the Housing Element was updated in 2016, the General Plan was found to be consistent with State General Plan Guidelines. However, since that time, the State has continued to pass new laws governing general plans and has updated its General Plan Guidelines, which now offers over 400 pages of guidance to cities and counties. As a result, a number of revisions to the General Plan have been Identified as being needed to comply with the new Guidelines, particularly as it relates to needed changes to the Safety Element to address potential flood, fire, and climate change hazards. In general, the amendments needed to comply are relatively minor and when implemented will better safeguard the community from natural hazards. (See Attachment A for a list of required revisions.) Additionally, the Housing Element needs to be updated to incorporate federal Affirmatively Furthering Fair Housing requirements and changes in state law, and it was due February 15, 2023. Although the City did not meet its adoption deadline due to an initial lack of consultant interest and delays in working with the State to rescope the project, the project promptly got underway in October 2022 after the City selected Planwest Partners to prepare the update. The Housing Element update is currently undenway and scheduled for adoption by the City and certification by the State prior to the end of October 2023.
It is worth noting that there have been no significant changes in the City since adoption of the various elements of the General Plan that would make a comprehensive revision to the Plan necessary.
Nevertheless, the City may periodically receive development requests that require a minor amendment to the General Plan to move forward. During the current planning period (i.e., since January 1,2014), no new development or proposed development has required a general plan amendment. Rather, the only general plan amendment to occur during the current planning period was a minor amendment to the Safety Element in 2020 to incorporate the Local Hazard Mitigation Plan by reference.
Since the General Plan affects current and future generations. State law requires the Plan to take a long term perspective, typically 10 to 20 years into the future. According to the General Plan, it “addresses planning for Etna through the year 2024.” Because 2024 Is fast approaching, and because the City is aware that a general plan update is needed to address several changes in state law and to meet the City’s adoption schedule for the Housing Element, the City applied for and received approval of a SB 2 planning grant from the Department of Housing and Community Development (HCD) to update the Housing Element prior to October 31, 2023, and a LEAP grant to update the other elements of the General Plan prior to the end of 2024.
Implementation of the General Plan
It is neither the purpose nor intent of this annual progress report to provide an in-depth analysis of every goal, policy, and program contained in the City’s General Plan. Nevertheless, it is useful to periodically 2022 General Plan Annual Progress Report Page 2
reflect upon the goals, policies, and programs contained in the General Plan to better assess where the City has been successful in meeting its objectives, where it could possibly do better, and if applicable, where changes to either the General Plan or direction of the City should occur. As such, the following table identifies the various goals, objectives, policies, and programs (i.e., implementation measures) contained in each element of the City of Etna General Plan and is followed by a summary of City’s successes in implementing these measures. (Housing Element policies and programs are detailed separately in Attachment B.)
Table 1
General Plan Goals, Objectives, Policies, and Programs
Program 2-A: Guidelines should be established
which will retain historic structures, and guide
development of new structures in the area, helping
their design to compliment a historic theme. A
historic overlay district may be formed to aid in the
implementation of the guidelines.
Program 2-B: Historic residential and commercial
structures located outside of any designated
historic district should also be protected when
reviewing projects adjacent to or on the same site
as the historic structure, making certain the design
is compatible with the historic structure.
Program 2-C: All new development or exterior
remodeling in the commercial area of the historic
district shall conform to adopted historic standards
and guidelines.
GOAL LU-3 - Existing neighborhoods should be
protected, and the sense of community
enhanced.
Land Use Element
GOAL LU-1 - Provide for a mix and quantity of
land uses to serve the future needs of the
community.
Objective: It is the objective of this goal to ensure
that a sufficient variety of land uses are available to meet the housing, employment, service and social
needs of the existing and future population.
Program 1-A: As vacant land in the City becomes
limited, encourage the development and
annexation of suitable land adjacent to the City in
the Sphere of Influence, which can be readily
served with water and sewer services.
Program 1-B: Provide for the development of
commercial and industrial areas where suitable
land exists with good access, and where such uses
will have a minimum of conflict with adjacent land
uses.
Program 1-C: Maintain flexibility in the Zoning
Ordinance by allowing opportunities through the
Conditional Use Permit process, for approval of
similar uses that are otherwise not permitted.
Program 1-D: Lands within the Sphere of Influence
should be zoned upon annexation consistent with
those designations noted on the General Plan Land
Use Plan.
GOAL LU-2 Protect and enhance the historic
qualities of the community.
Objective: There are numerous residential and
commercial structures within the City that add to its
desirability as a place of residence as well as aiding
increased tourism. It is the objective of this goal to
protect and enhance this historic resource.
Objective: New development should be compatible
with adjacent land uses as a means to protect the
neighborhood from added noise, traffic, light, and
other characteristics, which may negatively affect
the neighborhood.
Program 3-A: Standards shall be provided in the
Zoning Ordinance to provide necessary separation,
buffering, landscaping or other provisions as
needed to ensure compatibility between land uses.
Program 3-B: Land use designations and zoning
districts shall be applied in a manner that is
consistent with the prominent existing
development, taking care not to encroach upon an
established neighborhood with potentially
incompatible uses.
Program 3-C: During project reviews, significant

Because it has been almost 18 years since adoption of the General Plan, the City has made good progress addressing many of the programs listed above. A few examples include: remodeling City Hall to make the building handicapped accessible (Program 10-F); working with the Siskiyou Local Transportation Commission to incorporate planned roadway Improvements into the Regional Transportation Plan and working with Caltrans to identify needed improvements to SR 3 (Program 16-A); constructing an additional 200,000-gallon water tank (Program 9-B): and participating with the County in development of the current emergency sen/ices plan (Program 8-A). Further, many of the General Plan programs are implemented on an ongoing basis In the daily operations of the City, such as Program 16- B which provides for roads to be maintained at a level where the roads are safe, efficient, and economical, and Program 6-A, which requires that all proposed developments be reviewed for fire safety standards by the Fire Chief.
In addition, with this being an annual report, it is worth noting at least a few of the activities undertaken in 2022 in furtherance of the General Plan. In 2022, the City of Etna: adopted Ordinance 223 to facilitate mixed-use developments and allow residential uses by right in the Central Commercial zoning district when residential use occurs above or below street level (Policy HE.1.1); represented its interests on the Scott Valley Sustainable Ground Water Advisory Committee (Goal CO-12); approved a use permit for construction of a new office building on Commercial Street (Programs 1-B and 1-C); applied for Permanent Local Housing Allocation Program funds, which would be combined with allocations for other jurisdictions to construct a homeless shelter in Yreka (HE.1.2.4); banned fireworks during the summer months (Goal SF-6); was awarded grant funds to purchase a pool cover and install an additional shade structure with roof-mounted solar at the Dottie Olsen Community Pool (Program 5-B); the City updated its Water Conservation and Outreach Plan (Goal PF-10 objective); and the City began Its update of the General Plan Housing Element.
Regional Housing Needs Summary
Pursuant to Government Code Section 65584, HCD developed a Regional Housing Needs Plan (RHNP) for Siskiyou County. At the time the last RHNP was developed, HCD identified a need to accommodate 10 new residential units in the City of Etna over a 5-year period (January 1, 2014 to June 30, 2019), or two new residential units per year. Since that time, however, the City's planning period has been extended from five years to eight, and then further extended, and the next Housing Element is now due in 2023.
To ensure sufficient housing opportunities for all income levels in the City, HCD further divided these six units amongst the various economic groups identified in Table 2 below. 2022 General Plan Annual Progress Report Page 9

Notes: The City has not established an objective for the preservation of affordable housing, as there are no units at risk of conversion during the current planning period.
While the City has little control over the physical construction of dwelling units to satisfy the City’s share of regional housing needs, the City must ensure that it has sufficient properly zoned land to accommodate its share of housing needs should development be proposed. If the City did not have sufficient vacant land to accommodate its share of regional housing needs at the time the Housing Element was most recently updated, the City would likely have been required to adopt a program to rezone sufficient land to meet the projected shortfall in order to have a state-certified housing element. The City, having adequate vacant land to meet its regional housing needs, was not required to adopt such a program and, therefore, no parcels have been rezoned to accommodate regional housing needs as a result.
For the purpose of assessing the progress that has been made to satisfy projected housing needs for each economic group identified in Table 2, new housing opportunities are evaluated annually based upon an analysis of entitlements or building permits issued during the prior year. In addition, in order to determine which economic groups potentially benefit from new housing opportunities, it is necessary to define the various groups based upon State Income Limits and to establish a maximum housing affordability for each group based upon these limits (see Table 3 below). To determine the number of new housing units that are affordable to each income level, the estimated rent or property value, as determined by building permit and assessor data (if owner occupied) or sale price (if sold), Is compared with the maximum monthly housing affordability or maximum affordable purchase price shown in Table 3 below.

The formulas used to ascertain the maximum monthly housing affordability were determined using the criteria outlined in Sections 50052.5 and 50093 of the California Health and Safety Code. ®The maximum affordable purchase price was determined using the affordability calculator published by the Department of Housing and Community Development, which assumes that buyers could qualify for a 30-year, 6.94 percent fixed-rale mortgage with a 3.5% down payment in 2022.

Moderate Income = 120% of Median Income
During the current planning period (i.e., since January 1, 2014), there have been three new housing units added to the City’s housing stock. One was issued a building permit in 2014, another in 2017. and one in 2019. The City Council approved a use permit for a dwelling in 2021 (allowed by right, but use permit 2022 General Plan Annual Progress Report Page 10
needed to address building height) and the building permit was issued in 2022, however, the unit has not yet been relocated into the City. Additionally, a building permit was issued in 2022 for an accessory dwelling unit, but the unit has not yet been constructed. Based on the data and formulas in Table 3 above, two of the three new housing units would be considered affordable to individuals with moderate household incomes and one unit would be considered affordable to individuals with low household incomes. There were no other applications for housing development received In the prior year, nor have there been any other units that have been issued a completed entitlement, building permit, or a certificate of occupancy during the current housing element cycle. In addition, no dwelling units have been conserved through the City's housing rehabilitation program during the current planning period.
Conclusion
The City of Etna implements the General Plan in the regular administration of City business, on a projectby-project basis, and in the decisions of the City Council. Further, on an ongoing basis since August 2016 when the Housing Element was updated, the City has implemented a number of Housing Element programs and the City has seen the addition of three new dwelling units. The three dwelling units added represent 100 percent of the City's goal for moderate-income housing and 50 percent of the City’s goal for low-income housing for the current planning period. Details of needed updates to the General Plan are provided in Attachment A and the City’s progress towards implementing the Housing Element programs are provided in Attachment B.
Lastly, due to the time that has elapsed since the City’s General Plan was last updated and the need to amend the General Plan consistent with state law. the City Council applied for and received SB 2 and LEAP grant funding from the California Department of Housing and Community Development to update the General Plan.
Suggested Motion
I move that we adopt Resolution 2023-003 accepting the 2022 General Plan Annual Progress Report with attachments and approving transmittal of the report to the Governor’s Office of Planning and Research and the Department of Housing and Community Development.

Attachment A - General Plan Update Needs
Attachment A - General Plan Update Needs
Task 1: Amend Conservation and Safety Elements to Address Flooding Pursuant to Government Code § 65302(d)(3) and 65302(g)(2)
To comply with state law, the Conservation Element must be reviewed and updated as needed to identify rivers, creeks, streams, flood corridors, riparian habitats, and land that can accommodate floodwater for purposes of groundwater recharge and stormwater management. In addition, the Safety Element must be updated pursuant to Government Code Sec. 65302(g)(2) to Identify information regarding flood hazards, including:
● Flood hazard zones;
● NFIP maps published by FEMA;
● Information about flood hazards available from USACE; ● Designated floodway maps;
● Dam failure inundation maps;
● Floodplain Mapping Program maps and 200-year flood plain maps from DWR, if available; ● Maps of levee protection zones;
● Areas subject to inundation in the event of the failure of levees or floodwalls; ● Historical data on flooding, including locally prepared maps of areas that are subject to flooding, areas that are vulnerable to flooding after wildfires, and sites that have been repeatedly damaged by flooding;
● Existing and planned development in flood hazard zones, including structures, roads, utilities, and essential public facilities; and
● Local, state, and federal agencies with responsibility for flood protection, including special districts and local offices of emergency services.
Based on the information identified above, the goals, policies, objectives, and implementation measures of the Safety Element will need to be updated to protect the community from unreasonable risks of flooding and accomplish the following:
Avoid or minimize the risks of flooding to new development; Evaluate whether new development should be located in flood hazard zones and identify construction methods or other methods to minimize damage if new development is located in flood hazard zones;
Maintain the structural and operational integrity of essential public facilities during flooding; Locate, when feasible, new essential public facilities outside of flood hazard zones; and Establish cooperative working relationships among public agencies with responsibility for flood protection.
1. 2.
3. 4.
5. While some of these items are presently included in the Safety Element, most are not and will need to be incorporated into the General Plan accordingly.
Task 2: Amend Safety Element to Address Fire Hazards Pursuant to Government Code § 65302(g)(3)
To comply with state law, the Safety Element will need to be reviewed and updated as necessary A-1
Attachment A - General Plan Update Needs
to address fire risks associated with lands designated as State Responsibility Areas and Very High Fire Hazard Severity Zones. As required by state law, this review will need to consider advice included in the Office of Planning and Research’s “Fire Hazard Planning, General Plan Technical Advice Series” as well as the following information:
● Fire hazard severity zone maps available from Cal Fire; ● Historical data on wildfires available from local agencies or a reference to where the data can be found;
● Information about wildfire hazard areas from the United States Geological Survey; ● General location and distribution of existing and planned uses of land in very high fire hazard severity zones and in state responsibility areas, including structures, roads, utilities, and essential public facilities; and
● Local, state, and federal agencies with responsibility for fire protection, including special districts and local offices of emergency services.
Based on the information identified above, the Safety Element will need to be reviewed and updated as appropriate with goals, policies, objectives, and implementation measures for the protection of the community from the unreasonable risks of wildfire and to accomplish the following:
1. Avoid or minimize the wildfire hazards associated with new uses of land; Locate, when feasible, new essential public facilities outside of high fire risk areas or identify construction methods or other methods to minimize damage if these facilities are located in a state responsibility area or very high fire hazard severity zone;
2. Design adequate infrastructure if a new development is located in a state responsibility area or in a very high fire hazard severity zone, including safe access for emergency response vehicles, visible street signs, and water supplies for structural fire suppression;
3. and
4. Work cooperatively with public agencies with responsibility for fire protection.
Similar to flooding, some of these items are presently included in the Safety Element; however, most are not and will need to be incorporated accordingly.
Task 3: Amend Safety Element to Address Fire Hazards Pursuant to Government Code § 65302(g)(1)
To comply with state law, the Safety Element will also need to be reviewed and updated as necessary to address:
● Evacuation routes;
● Peak load water supply requirements; and
● Minimum road widths and clearances around structures as those items relate to identified fire and geological hazards.
All of these items are currently lacking from the Safety Element and will need to be incorporated accordingly.
A-2
Attachment A - General Plan Update Needs
Task 4: Amend Land Use Element to Address Disadvantaged Unincorporated Communities Pursuant to Government Code § 65302.1
To comply with state law, the Land Use Element must be reviewed and updated as necessary to address any disadvantaged unincorporated communities (DUCs) located within or adjacent to city limits, including an analysis of water, wastewater, stormwater drainage, and structural fire protection needs or deficiencies for any such communities. DUCs are defined as “an area of inhabited territory located within an unincorporated area of a County in which the annual median household income is less than 80 percent of the statewide median household income.” State law considers an area with 12 or more registered voters to be an inhabited territory. The effect of DUCs on the City is of importance when amending the Sphere of Influence and when annexing territory into the City.
Task 5: Amend Safety Element to Address Climate Adaptation and Resiliency Pursuant to Government Code § 65302(g)(4)
State law requires that upon the next revision of the local hazard mitigation plan, which the City recently incorporated into the General Plan Safety Element, the City is required to review and update the Safety Element as necessary to address climate adaptation and resiliency strategies applicable to the City. This includes developing a vulnerability assessment that identifies the risks that climate change poses to the city and the geographic areas at risk from climate change impacts. This work will be completed over the next year as part of a Local Early Action Planning (LEAP) grant obtained by the City.
Task 6: Amend Various Elements of the General Plan to Address Environmental Justice Considerations Pursuant to Government Code § 65302(h)(2) Because the City will be amending multiple elements of the General Plan concurrently In order to bring the General Plan into conformity with state law, state law requires that the City adopt an environmental Justice element or integrate environmental Justice goals, policies, objectives, and implementation measures in other elements of the General Plan to accomplish the following:
● Reduce the unique or compounded health risks in disadvantaged communities by means that include the reduction of pollution exposure and improvement of air quality and that promote public facilities, food access, safe and sanitary homes, and physical activity:
● Promote civil engagement in the public decision-making process; and ● Prioritize improvements and programs that address the needs of disadvantaged communities.
Similar to integration of climate change information, environmental Justice concerns will be integrated into the General Plan over the next year as part of a LEAP grant obtained by the City.

which include lower income housing in
areas appropriate to the needs and

The City supports the development of affordable housing, however. It Is difficult to attract houslirg developers to Siskiyou County and there has not been any housing proposed in the city during the current planning period other than three Ringls4amily dwellings, aB of which were approved. Because of this, the City has not had an opportunity to encourage and support the development of affordable housing durirtg the current planning period as much as it would prefer.

HE.1.1/1 1/1/2017
The City te Interested In engaging with a developer of affordable housirrg, however, there are no nonprofit housirrg sponsors that regubrly operate in Siskiyou County. The nearest is the Community Housing Improvement Program out of Chico, but projects are limited to Butte, Gtann, Tehama, Shasta. Sutter, Tuba, and Colusa counties. Recently the DANCO Group out of HumbokH County approached the City of Mt. Shasta about developing an affordabte housing project, so as more housing providers become engaged in Siskiyou County's housing needs, it is hoped that the City will be abb to work with one to create rrew housirrg opportunities in Etna.

ELECTRIC VEHICLE CHARGING STATIONS - SECOND READING OF ORDINANCE 225 The project is a second reading of Ordinance 225 adding Chapter 15.14, Electric Vehicle Charging Stations, to Title 15, Buildings and Construction, of the Etna Municipal Code to create an expedited, streamlined permitting process for electric vehicle charging stations (EVCS).

RECOMMENDATION:
ATTACHMENTS:
OVERVIEW
During the City Council’s regularly scheduled meeting on December 12, 2022, the Council discussed the proposed adoption of Ordinance 225 to add Chapter 15.14, Electric Vehicle Charging Stations, to the Etna Municipal Code. Ordinance 225 was subsequently introduced for adoption upon a motion by Council Member Gilmore and a second by Council Member Deppen, with the Council voting unanimously to approve a first reading of Ordinance 225 by title only. With the introduction of Ordinance 225 now complete, the ordinance requires a second reading for adoption (see Attachment A). Once passed, Ordinance 225 becomes effective 30 days later.
At the December 12*^ City Council meeting, the future adoption of an electric vehicle charging stations (EVCS) checklist pursuant to AB 1236 and Ordinance 225 was discussed, and a draft EVCS checklist was included as an attachment to the December 12^^ staff report. Because the City contracts with the County for building services, staff has continued to coordinate with the County to either get the building department to authorize use of the City’s draft EVCS checklist or to get the County to prepare and adopt its own EVCS checklist, which could then also be adopted by the City. At present, the County is developing its AB 1236 and AB 970 ordinance and other compliance materials. Once the final checklist has been determined, staff will bring the checklist back to the City Council for adoption in accordance with Ordinance 225 and state law.
ENVIRONMENTAL RECOMMENDATION
As discussed in the December 12‘'^ staff report and at the City Council meeting, the project is exempt from the California Environmental Quality Act (CEQA) pursuant to CEQA Guidelines Section 15061(b)(3).
A finding to this effect was made by the City Council on December 12, 2022, prior to the introduction of Ordinance 225.
SUGGESTED MOTION
I move that we adopt Ordinance 225, An Ordinance of the City Council of the City of Etna Adding Chapter
15.14, Electric Vehicle Charging Stations, to Title 15, Buildings and Construction, of the Etna Municipal Code.

These shall be considered their "primary duties," as set forth in section 830.37 of the California Penal Code.
Pursuant to section 830.37 of the California Penal Code, the fire chief and his designees are peace officers when carrying out their above tasked primary duties and/or when making arrests pursuant to section 836 of the California Penal Code when there exists an immediate danger to persons or property with respect to any public offense, or there exists an escape of a perpetrator thereof Under section 830.37 PC, the fire chief, and his designees, are only permitted to carry firearms if authorized to do so by their employing agency.

Letter of Support for the California Health Collaborative - Adaptation Planning Grant Program
SUBJECT:
Dear Mr. Ramirez,
On behalf of Etna City Council, it is our pleasure to provide a letter of reference in support of the California Health Collaborative’s (CHC) application to the Governor’s Office of Planning and Research - Adaptation Planning Grant Program.
CHC has been a key community stakeholder, dedicated to reducing health inequities in Siskiyou County. Guided by its mission of “changing lives by improving health and wellness”, CHC has proven to be sensitive to the needs of the target population identified in the proposal; tribal and rural residents at risk for severe impacts of climate change especially those caused by wildfires.
Etna City Council serves the Community of Etna located in Scott Valley. Etna City Council provides various services including fire prevention and mitigation support. The Siskiyou Wildfire Resiliency Program (SWRP) will work with Etna City and Scott Valley Community organizations to identify gaps in education and mitigation of wildfires. The SWRP values inclusion and diversity in planning and preventing wildfires. Etna City Council supports CHC’s plans to develop and improve the community’s wildfire resiliency priorities. CHC’s plan to engage diverse partners for community visioning and expanding education will improve our health and prevent wildfires while protecting our natural resources.
Etna City Council strongly supports your proposed application and your continued commitment to protect and promote the safety and wellbeing our communities. If you have any questions, please feel free to contact us by phone at 530-467-5256 or e-mail at [email protected].
Sincerely,
Clifford Munson
