Because the forms require an understanding of the instructions used to complete them, information on housing production is summarized herein.
Purpose of the General Plan
Etna's 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 and its planning area at that time. 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 the General Plan 2025 General Plan Annual Progress Report Page 2
when dealing with matters affecting the physical, economic, and social development of the community, the document is also referred to by individuals and businesses contemplating potential development activity in 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
General plans are policy documents that address seven topics of community importance prescribed by state law. As specified in Government Code Section 65302, the seven topics that must be addressed are:
land use, housing, circulation, open space, conservation, noise, and safety. Cities and counties that have "disadvantaged communities," as defined in Government Code Section 65302(h)(4)(a), are also required to address environmental justice concerns in their general plans.' Each topic is typically treated to its own chapter, or element, of the general plan, though general plans may be "adopted in any format deemed appropriate or convenient by the legislative body, including the combining of elements" (Gov. Code Sec. 65301). There are no "disadvantaged communities" within Etna's planning area that require preparation of an environmental justice element, and Etna's General Plan is comprised of an Introduction, Land Use Element, Housing Element, Circulation Element, Open Space & Conservation Element, Noise Element, and Safety Element.
Because general plans affect current and future generations, state law requires that general plans take a long-term perspective, typically 10 to 20 years into the future. Housing elements are updated separately according to statutory timelines every eight years, and Safety Elements are reviewed, and updated if necessary, following revisions to the Housing Element and Local Hazard Mitigation Plan (i.e., every 5-8 years). The City of Etna General Plan was most recently updated over a 20-month period from March 2024 to November 2025 (see Table 1). As noted in the Introduction to the City's General Plan, the City of Etna General Plan "addresses planning for Etna through the year 2045." The update was prepared to ensure the General Plan continues to (1) meet state requirements,23 (2) represent the community's vision for itself, and (3) provide the guidance necessary to accomplish this vision.

' Government Code Section 65302(h)(4)(a) defines "disadvantaged communities" as an area identified by the California Environmental Protection Agency pursuant to Health and Safety Code Section 39711 or an area that is a low-income area that is disproportionately affected by environmental pollution and other hazards that can lead to 2 HCD reviewed the City's 6th Cycle Housing Element update and found it to be "in substantial compliance with state Housing Element Law (Gov. Code § 65580 et seq)." Additionally, the draft Safety Element was submitted for review to the State Board of Forestry and Fire Protection (BOF) and to the California Geological Survey of the Department of Conservation (CGS) in accordance with Gov. Code § 65302.5. BOF found that it meets the requirements of planning law relative to fire safety. No response was received from CGS. 3 Each element of the General Plan was prepared consistent with the State's General Plan Guidelines and Technical Advisories.

Implementation of the General Plan
It is neither the purpose nor intent of this annual progress report to provide an in-depth analysis of the City's progress toward achieving or implementing every goal, policy, and program contained in the City's General Plan. Nevertheless, it is useful to periodically 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, an excerpt of the General Plan's goals, policies, and programs is attached hereto as Attachment B, and the General Plan is available in its entirety on City's website at: https://etnaca.com/general-plan-and-zoning-code-update/.
It has been almost two years since the Housing Element was adopted, 15 months since adoption of the Circulation Element, Noise Element, and Open Space & Conservation Element, and four months since adoption of the Introduction, Land Use Element, and Safety Element. During this period, the City has implemented or begun to implement a variety of General Plan programs. Much of the progress so far can be attributed to the City's 2025 Zoning Code update, which implemented or partially implemented several programs in the Housing Element. While other policies and programs will be implemented through the regular administration of city business, on a project-by-project basis, and in the decisions of the City Council, there is still much do, and progress toward the General Plan's implementation has just begun.
Progress toward implementing each Housing Element program is detailed separately in Attachment C.
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 RHNP was developed, HCD identified a need to accommodate two new residential units in the City of Etna over an eight-year planning period (February 15, 2023, to February 15, 2031). One unit was allocated as being affordable to Extremely Low Income households and the other unit affordable to Low Income households. As shown in Table 2 below, the City established as additional goals the construction of one unit affordable to Very Low Income households, the rehabilitation of three units, and the conservation of four units.
Table 2
Summary of the City's Regional Housing Needs & Goals: 2023-2031 Economic Group New Construction Rehabilitation Conservation Extremely Low Income 1 1 1
Very Low Income 1
Low Income 1
Moderate Income 0
Above Moderate Income 0
TOTAL: 3 3 4
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.
Conservation as used herein means weatherization, code enforcement, energy conservation, and mobile home park preservation activities.
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 2025 General Plan Annual Progress Report Page 4
adequate vacant land to meet its regional housing needs, was not required to adopt such a program and, therefore, no parcels must be rezoned to accommodate regional housing needs.
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 in Table 3 below.
Table 3
2025 State Income Limits and Home Affordability for the Various Economic Groups Maximum Annual Maximum Monthly Maximum Affordable
Economic Group Income 1,2 Housing Affordability 34 Purchase Price 5 Extremely Low Income $32,150 $241 $44,000
Very Low Income $46,950 $586 $98,450
Low Income $75,100 $1,314 $152,850
Moderate Income $112,700 $3,615 $311,500
• Median Income = $93,900 per HCD • Adjusted per HUD's FY 2025 income limits briefing materials Extremely Low Income = 30% of Median Income * Extremely Low Income = $32,150 X 0.30 X 0.30/12 Very Low Income = 50% of Median Income Very Low Income = $46,950 X 0.3 X 0.50/12 Low Income = 80% of Median Income Low Income = $75,100 X 0.3 X 0.7/12 Moderate Income = 120% of Median Income Moderate Income = $112,700 X 0.35 X 1.1/12 4 The formulas used to ascertain the maximum monthly housing affordability were determined using the criteria outlined in Sections 50052.5 and 50053 of the California Health and Safety Code. 5 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, 7.04 percent fixed-rate Federal Housing Administration mortgage with a 3.5% down payment in 2025.
New Construction
During the current planning period (i.e., since February 15, 2023), there have been no applications for new dwelling units received, approved, or disapproved. Further, no new dwellings have been issued a completed entitlement, building permit, or a certificate of occupancy.
Rehabilitation, Conservation, and Demolition
No housing units have been demolished or rehabilitated during the current planning period. In 2025, two dwellings were conserved through Great Northern Services' Home Weatherization Program. The weatherization assistance benefited low income households.
SB 2 and Local Early Action Planning (LEAP) Grants
The City of Etna utilized its SB 2 and LEAP grants to develop a water system assessment and update the City's General Plan, Zoning Code, and planning application fees. The SB 2 planning grant was fully utilized and there was an unexpended LEAP grant balance of $26,008.75 at the completion of the project.
Although the City has not yet experienced an increase in housing development as a result of the planning grants, legally compliant planning documents establish the necessary framework for development to occur.
2025 General Plan Annual Progress Report Page 5
Affordable Housing and High Road Jobs Act of 2022
No residential development applications have been submitted pursuant to the Affordable Housing and High Road Jobs Act of 2022.
Consultation with California Native American Tribes
In accordance with Government Code Section 65352.3, the City notified Tribes prior to the recent General Plan update for the purpose of inviting consultation and avoiding impacts to places, features, and objects described in Public Resources Code Sec. 5097.9 and 5097.993. None of the tribal representatives identified by the Native American Heritage Commission and contacted by the City requested consultation.
Historic Resources
No resources in Etna are listed on the National Register of Historic Places, the California Register of Historic Resources, or a local register of historic places.
Affordable Housing on Faith and Higher Education Lands Act of 2023 No residential development applications have been submitted pursuant to the Affordable Housing on Faith and Higher Education Lands Act of 2023.
Conclusion
The City of Etna implements the General Plan in the regular administration of city business, on a project- by-project basis, and in the decisions of the City Council. All elements of the General Plan were recently updated using a combination of SB 2 and LEAP planning grants. The General Plan meets current State requirements, represents the community's vision for itself, and provides the guidance necessary to accomplish this vision. Details regarding the City's progress toward implementing the Housing Element are included on HCD-issued forms included as Attachment C. 2025 General Plan Annual Progress Report Page 6

Noise Element (2024)
GOAL 1: To protect the existing and future citizens of Etna from the harmful effects of exposure to excessive noise.
GOAL 2: To protect existing noise-sensitive land uses from encroachment by new uses that would generate noise levels which are incompatible with those uses, and to discourage new noise-sensitive land uses from being developed near sources of high noise levels.
GOAL 3: To recognize that noise is an inherent by-product of many land uses and to protect the economic base of Etna by preventing the encroachment of noise-sensitive land uses into areas affected by existing noise-producing uses.
GOAL 4: To provide sufficient information regarding the community noise environment so that existing and potential future noise impacts may be effectively addressed in the land use planning and project review processes.
GOAL 5: To develop strategies for abating excessive noise exposure through appropriate mitigation measures in combination with appropriate zoning to avoid incompatible land uses.
Attachment B - General Plan Goals, Policies & Programs Page 23 POLICY 1: The noise level standards for noise-sensitive areas of new uses affected by traffic noise sources in Etna are shown by Table 4.
POLICY 2: Where the noise level standards of Table 4 are predicted to be exceeded at new uses proposed within Etna which are affected by traffic noise, appropriate noise mitigation measures shall be included in the project design to reduce projected noise levels to a state of compliance with the Table 4 standards at the noise-sensitive areas of the proposed uses.
POLICY 3: The City shall encourage local law-enforcement agencies to enforce the vehicle noise level limits specified within the California Motor Vehicle Code.
POLICY 4: The interior and exterior noise level standards for noise-sensitive areas of new uses affected by existing fixed noise sources in Etna are shown by Table 5. Where the noise level standards of Table 5 are predicted to be exceeded at a proposed noise-sensitive areas due to existing fixed noise sources, appropriate noise mitigation measures shall be included in the project design to reduce projected noise levels to a state of compliance with the Table 5 standards within the identified noise- sensitive areas of the proposed new development.
POLICY 5: Where a project would result in the introduction of new fixed noise sources where such sources do not currently exist, the noise generation of those sources shall be mitigated so as not exceed the interior and exterior noise level standards of Table 5 at existing noise-sensitive areas in the project vicinity
POLICY 6: If a noise-generating use is proposed adjacent to vacant lands currently zoned for uses which may be developed with exterior noise sensitivity, the noise generating use shall be responsible for mitigating its noise generation to a state of compliance with the Table 5 standards using reasonable assumptions pertaining to both the likely sensitivity of the receiving land use and the noise generation of the project. At such time as that noise-sensitivity is introduced on the nearby vacant parcel(s), the proposed noise-generating use will be responsible for complying with the City's Noise Ordinance standards.
POLICY 7: Due to variations in types of both noise-generating and noise-sensitive land uses, as well as variations in ambient conditions in the City, the City shall have the ability to set noise standards which are up to 5 dB higher or lower than the Table 5 standards if determined appropriate by the City Council and/or City Planning department staff.
POLICY 8: For capacity enhancing roadway projects, the construction of new roadways, or projects which will substantially increase traffic on the local roadway network, a noise analysis shall be prepared. If pre-project traffic noise levels already exceed the noise standards of Table 4 and the increase is significant as defined below, noise mitigation measures should be considered to reduce traffic noise levels to a state of compliance with the Table 4 standards. A significant increase is defined as follows:
Pre-Project Noise Significant Increase

Subject: Request to Add Evening Farmers Market to March Agenda Hi Pam,
I hope you're doing well!
I'm writing on behalf of the Etna Farmers Market Board to request that our proposed Evening Farmers Market be added to the agenda for the upcoming March City Council meeting.
We are planning four evening markets this summer in partnership with Denny Bar, to be held at their garage location across from the restaurant. For safety reasons, we are seeking City Council approval for a temporary street closure and detour during market hours and set up (5pm-9pm).
We anticipate this event to benefit the community and all our local businesses.
I will stop by City Hall this afternoon to pick up an event packet and plan to submit the completed application tomorrow (Thursday) in order to meet the deadline.
We would greatly appreciate any feedback or guidance you may have as we move through the process.
Thank you very much for your help and support,

As such, the use of Regional Cost Modifiers is subject to the authority The BVD table provides the "average" construction costs having jurisdiction. per square foot, which can be used in determining permit fees for a jurisdiction. Permit fee schedules are addressed in Section 109.2 of the 2024 International Building Code (IBC) whereas Section 109.3 addresses building permit Permit Fee Multiplier valuations. The permit fees can be established by using the BVD table and a Permit Fee Multiplier, which is based Determine the Permit Fee Multiplier:

Permit Fee = Gross Area x Square Foot Construction Cost X Permit Fee Multiplier
Example
Type of Construction: IB

2nd story = 8,000 sq. ft.
Height: 2 stories
Permit Fee Multiplier = 0.0075
Use Group: B
1. Gross area:Business = 2 stories x 8,000 sq. ft. = 16,000 sq. ft.
Square Foot Construction Cost:
B/IB = $268.41/sq. ft.
3. Permit Fee:
Business = 16,000 sq. ft. x $268.41/sq. ft x 0.0075
= $32,209.20
Important Points
The BVD is not intended to apply to alterations or
repairs to existing buildings. Because the scope of
alterations or repairs to an existing building varies
so greatly, the Square Foot Construction Costs
table does not reflect accurate values for that
purpose. However, the Square Foot Construction
Costs table can be used to determine the cost of
an addition that is basically a stand-alone building
which happens to be attached to an existing
building. In the case of such additions, the only
alterations to the existing building would involve
the attachment of the addition to the existing
building and the openings between the addition
and the existing building.
• For purposes of establishing the Permit Fee
Multiplier, the estimated total annual construction
value for a given time period (1 year) is the sum of
each building's value (Gross Area x Square Foot
Construction Cost) for that time period (e.g.,
• The Square Foot Construction Cost does not
include the price of the land on which the
building is built. The Square Foot

This approach ensures reliable communication in both covered and uncovered areas, maintains access during major incidents, and supports long-term scalability. Starlink is also required to operate the computer aided dispatch and records management system (RIMS) recently deployed in law enforcement vehicles. Starlink will also provide a communications platform for the Fire Department and Ambulance while operating in areas with no cellular service.
Motion to approve the Etna Police Department, Public Works, Ambulance, and Fire Department to transition from Verizon to AT&T FirstNet and Starlink Mini.
DISCUSSION:
Purpose
This proposal recommends transitioning the Etna Police Department and other public safety departments within the city, from Verizon Wireless to AT&T FirstNet to improve mission-critical communications, enhance reliability, and modernize departmental capabilities.
Current Verizon Service (Baseline)
• Total monthly charges: ~$405.83
• Approximately 10-11 active lines
• Individual line costs range from $36.99 to $49.09 per month • No dedicated public safety priority network
• Subject to network congestion during emergencies
Key Issue: Verizon operates on a commercial network with no guaranteed priority during critical incidents.
Proposed AT&T FirstNet Solution
• Estimated monthly cost: ~$40-$44.99 per line (unlimited + hotspot) • Estimated total monthly cost: ~$440-$495 (11 lines)
• Device costs (one-time): approximately $0.99 per device under current promotional pricing • Based on FirstNet public safety rate plan (2-year agreement) 429602.1
Operational Benefits of FirstNet
• Priority and Preemption: First responders maintain network access during congestion • Dedicated Public Safety Core: Separate from commercial traffic • Interoperability: Improved coordination with other FirstNet agencies • Unlimited Data: No throttling concerns during extended incidents • Mobile Hotspot Capability: Supports field operations and mobile data use • Continued rural network expansion focused on underserved areas FINANCIAL IMPACT:
Cost Analysis
Verizon: ~$405/month
AT&T FirstNet: ~$440-$495/month
Summary:
• Slight increase of approximately $35-$90 per month
• Offset by significant operational and safety improvements Supplemental Connectivity: Starlink Mini (Vehicle-Based Redundancy) To further enhance communication reliability-especially in rural and mountainous terrain surrounding Etna and Fort Jones-this proposal includes deployment of Starlink Mini units in patrol vehicles and key response units.
One-Time Equipment Cost (Per Vehicle):
• Starlink Mini Kit: $199.00
• Mini Car Adapter: $45.00
• Shipping & Handling: $20.00
• Tax: $19.14
• Total Per Unit: $283.14
Monthly Service Cost:
• $50.00 per vehicle/user
Purpose and Operational Value:
• Provides independent satellite-based internet not reliant on cellular networks • Ensures connectivity in dead zones where LTE/5G coverage is limited or unavailable • Enables CAD/RMS access, report writing, real-time video, mapping, and intelligence tools 429602.1
Etna Police Department Monthly Report
February 2026
As we enter the month of March, when winter is holding back and spring is pulling forward it also seems to transition over into something holds and something pulls inside of us too. The past couple of months seem to be pulling and pushing us in all different directions with new sometimes exiting calls for service taking place. Many new laws and ways of doing business take place after the first of the year and often take a little time to understand or apply to our communities in a way that is most suitable to our way of life. We will be bringing these new adaptations to council and our communities over the next few months, however, if you have questions regarding any new changes please let us know so we can help educate each other and constituents.
Traffic- Placement of the message board and speed sign on Main Street has shown to be very effective in slowing traffic as they approach downtown. Recently the sign was relocated to track vehicles approaching downtown from the Hwy 3. We hope to continue strategically moving the sign in areas needing traffic to be monitored and slowed. Detailed traffic reports generated from the message board will also be available to help us determine when traffic is most problematic. Please let us know if you are observing an area that would benefit the sign being placed to help monitor traffic. We hope to utilize the sign within the Callahan Way area soon as well as erect two new speed signs on Main Street and Callahan way to help drivers be aware of speed limits within constricted areas.
Schools- Our partnership with the district is continually being tested as we have had numerous calls for service within our schools as well as follow up to all the hard work that has been accomplished throughout the school year. We are very blessed to have such a close-knit group of staff to work through often difficult situations to provide not only a superior education system but also provide safer environments for young people within their homes. While spring approaches, many athletic programs begin and add new events to school inside and out of normal hours. We often work with school sites that are hosting events to ensure a safe, fun time is had for all.
Animal Control- Both towns had a significant rise in animal control cases, mostly having to do with animals at large. While several of these calls were closed out successfully, we are still working on other cases that have not yet resulted in voluntary compliance. New donations recently received have helped us continue the availability of kennels and all associated costs that come with housing animals. We will continue to educate owners regarding registering their pets as the new fiscal year approaches requiring action on their part.
Reports/Cases- Cases continue to rise as we approach March in each town, however, they are on a much lower spectrum in regard to the rest of the County and state. This has always been our goal and reassures us and our community we are on the right path. We often measure our success on our constituents' thoughts, feelings, and willingness to share their opinions on what they observe throughout town. While we are not immune to criminal activity, we have shown that the continued partnership with our local government and community is special and the main benefactor of our success. It is our continued mission we provide the very best in public safety and will always be the voice of our community.
Calls for Service- As the weather continues to warm and community events begin to take place our calls for service continue to rise. As always mentioned, most of our calls for service are good contacts with community members and are in assistance rather than direction.
The stats attached reflect that in an abbreviated way, however if additional interpretation is needed please ask during my verbal report or give me a call so I can better inform others of what is going on in our towns.
Ordinance Enforcement- We continue to follow up on many ordinance issues within town including cases that originated years prior. Most are abandoned properties remaining vacant and a nuisance to our community. While we have exhausted many of our options to conclude these issues, many are met with an obstacle needing a different solution.
Working with other town staff we will hopefully be able to obtain unconventional resolutions in order to remedy obstacles that have frustrated us in many ways. We are excited to work with new City Management in Fort Jones and coordinate meetings in resolving issues and hearing additional ways we may be able to accomplish our goals with a consolidated approach.
PAL- The PAL program is beginning to ramp up our spring programs including basketball, wrestling, and swim team. A big thank you to the town of Ft. Jones for their continued support of our Scott Valley Pool and helping partnership with Etna in another cost sharing opportunity.
Having this asset within our community is unheard of everywhere else but comes at a cost.
Without everyone pitching in there would be no practical way of keeping our community pool open. The skate park fundraising continues to be on the forefront and has seen an amazing response from supporters. While this is a multi-year project, the fire in those helping seems to be behind us keeping the project from stalling.
Here in the near future, you will begin to see new faces within the PD as we bring new officers to the department. This is an exciting time, and we look forward to introducing them to the council and our community. As always you have a continued invitation to a ride along and we hope to see you out there.
I wanted to take a quick minute to recognize Dick Short, "The great Auk" who we recently lost.
Dick was a staple of our communities, and he will be sorely missed by all. Words cannot describe what he meant to us however he will live on in all our memories and stories we will continue to tell.

Public Works Department Report
Dear Etna City Council and Community members,
Please find an update regarding our recent activities and primary objectives for the upcoming month.
Over the past month, we prioritized improvements to city parks. Key achievements include the automation of the irrigation system at the Little League Park and the installation of a new electrical run for the scoreboard control in the bleacher area. Additionally, we completed essential annual maintenance, with further improvements planned, and have reopened the restrooms at both park locations.
Streets received 4 additional new bright shiny and elusive speed limit signs 2 on the lower end of main Street and 2 down the Callahan way area. Some pothole patch could also be seen thrown about the streets in random locations.
Sewer main maintenance also remains a priority. We are actively addressing ongoing issues with tree roots. I would like to extend our thanks to the City of Yreka for providing the equipment and staff necessary for a camera inspection of a problem area on Scott Street.
We are also collaborating with 1884 Line Co to maintain city infrastructure during their power pole replacement project. Regarding the water plant filtration upgrades, Timberworks of Mt. Shasta has been awarded the contract and has commenced work. Public Works staff will coordinate with the contractor and City engineer to ensure all project requirements are met. We will be sampling water system to meet regulatory requirements for new PFAS testing quarterly this year it has extensive sampling procedures that go with it and look forward to getting that behind us.
Next month, our focus will shift toward interior improvements at City Hall and preparations for the pool season. Furthermore, we intend to proceed with the disposal/sale of surplus vehicles and begin evaluating the re-implementation of the noon whistle.
Please let me know if you have any questions regarding these updates.
Best regards,
Daniel Burbank
