FAIRFAX TOWN COUNCIL MEETING

STAFF REPORT
AGENDA ITEM #4F
MEETING DATE April 15, 2026
PREPARED FOR Mayor and Town Council
PREPARED BY Kristin Arnold, PE – Public Works Director
SUBJECT Adopt a Resolution Authorizing the Town Manager to Execute a Professional Services Agreement Between the Town of Fairfax and WRA for Environmental Services for Fuel Reduction on the Wall Property in an Amount Not to Exceed $68,031.

RECOMMENDATION
Adopt a Resolution Authorizing the Town Manager to Execute a Professional Services Agreement Between the Town of Fairfax and WRA for Environmental Services for Fuel Reduction on the Wall Property in an Amount Not to Exceed $68,031.

BACKGROUND
The Wall Property Open Space is a Town-owned property located within a designated High Fire Hazard Severity Zone. Dense vegetation and accumulated fuels on the site increase the risk of wildfire spreading to nearby residential neighborhoods and adjacent open space. Recent wildfire activity throughout the region and updated fire hazard mapping have underscored the need for proactive vegetation management to reduce community wildfire risk. As a result, the Town has identified fuel reduction on the Wall Property as a priority.

The proposed fuel reduction plan is to use prescribed herbivory (goat grazing), manual thinning with hand tools, chainsaws, weed wrenches and the potential use of a masticator or other heavy machinery to maintain the Marinda Fire Road. Because these activities involve vegetation removal and ground disturbance, the project is subject to review under the California Environmental Quality Act (CEQA), which requires public agencies to evaluate potential environmental impacts and identify measures to avoid or reduce significant effects. The Town requires professional environmental services to complete this review and ensure the project proceeds in a legally defensible and environmentally responsible manner.

DISCUSSION
On February 2, 2026, the Town issued a Request for Proposals (RFP) for environmental services to support CEQA compliance for fuel reduction activities on the Wall Property Open Space. The Town requested proposals to prepare a Project-Specific Analysis (PSA) and Addendum to the California Vegetation Treatment Program (CalVTP) Program Environmental Impact Report (PEIR), which is intended to streamline environmental review for hazardous fuel reduction projects while maintaining strong environmental protections. The Wall Property consists of approximately 100 acres of open space located near residential neighborhoods and public trails and includes sensitive biological resources; therefore, careful technical review and documentation are required. The Town’s goal is to complete a

2 legally defensible environmental analysis that supports timely fuel reduction while protecting natural and cultural resources.

The RFP was publicly posted on the Town’s website. Four qualified firms submitted proposals:

1. Panorama Environmental

2. Soar Environmental Consulting

3. WRA Environmental Consultants

4. Sequoia Ecological Consulting
A review panel consisting of Town staff and representatives from the Ross Valley Fire Department (RVFD) evaluated the proposals using a ranked scoring system that considered qualifications, relevant experience, project approach, and cost. Professional services are not selected on cost alone; experience with similar projects, familiarity with local conditions, and ability to deliver clear and defensible CEQA documentation are critical factors.

Based on the evaluation, staff determined that WRA Incorporated (WRA) is the most qualified firm to complete this work. WRA demonstrated extensive experience preparing CEQA documentation for fuel reduction and vegetation management projects throughout Marin County, including work for the Marin County Fire Department, Novato Fire Protection District, San Rafael Fire Department, and Ross Valley Fire Department. Their proposal reflects direct experience applying the CalVTP framework and preparing Project-Specific Analyses and Addenda for wildfire resilience projects.

WRA also brings strong in-house biological, arborist, and Geographic Information Systems (GIS) capabilities, as well as a qualified cultural resources subconsultant, Alta Archaeological Consulting. Their team includes senior biologists with decades of experience in Marin County ecosystems and an archaeologist with extensive local expertise. This integrated approach reduces coordination delays and ensures that biological and cultural resource evaluations are completed efficiently and to a high professional standard.

In addition, WRA has a longstanding working relationship with the Town of Fairfax, having prepared CEQA documentation for multiple Town infrastructure projects since 2013. Their familiarity with the Town’s regulatory framework, community expectations, and local environmental conditions will support an efficient review process.

WRA’s proposed cost of $68,031 reflects a detailed, task-based scope of work that includes biological surveys, preparation of a Biological Resources Technical Report, cultural resource surveys and tribal coordination, preparation of the PSA/PEIR Addendum, public meeting support, and filing of the Notice of Determination. The firm estimates a four- to six-month timeline to complete the CEQA process, allowing fuel reduction activities to begin by spring 2027.

Staff concludes that WRA provides the best overall value to the Town based on qualifications, demonstrated experience with similar wildfire fuel reduction projects, familiarity with Marin County 3 environmental conditions, and a clear, defensible approach to CEQA compliance. For these reasons, staff recommends authorizing the Town Manager to execute a Professional Services Agreement with WRA in an amount not to exceed $68,031.

FISCAL IMPACT
The cost of this Professional Services Agreement with WRA is for an amount not exceed $68,031. This work will be funded by the Town’s Marin Wildfire Prevention Authority Revenue and can be fully funded by the current Fiscal Year budget.

SCOPE OF WORK
Scope of Work
Task 1. Technical Environmental Studies
Task 1.1: Cultural Resources Study
ALTA Archaeological Consulting (ALTA) will conduct
a Cultural Resources Survey for the proposed Project
that will include 1) a project kick-off meeting, 2)
background research and literature review, 3) Native
American outreach, 4) field survey of the Project
site, and 5) preparation of an Archaeological Survey
Report.

ALTA will conduct a Project kick-off meeting to
formally initiate the Project and ensure alignment
between all key stakeholders on the Project scope,
objectives, timelines, and roles. The meeting will
serve as a platform to address any initial questions
or concerns and ensure that all parties have a
clear understanding of their responsibilities moving
forward. Following the kick-off meeting, ALTA will
conduct a records search at the California Historical
Resources Information System, Northwest Information
Center (NWIC), the primary repository for cultural
resources information for Marin County. The purpose
of archival research is to identify previously conducted archaeological surveys or known archaeological sites
located on the subject properties and within a onequarter-mile radius of the Project site. In addition, ethnographic and historic literature will be reviewed to create background contextual information relevant to
the Project site.

ALTA will submit a letter to the Native American
Heritage Commission requesting a review of the
Sacred Lands File. ALTA will engage with the
Federated Indians of Graton Rancheria to solicit their
input regarding cultural or tribal resources present
on the property.1
A tribal representative will be
invited to participate in the field survey. Comments
and information provided by the Native American
community and government agencies will be provided
in the draft and final reports.
1 T ribal consultation pursuant to PRC Section
21080.3.1 (commonly referred to as “AB 52”) has been
satisfied for treatment projects using a within-the-scope finding with a PSA or project approval with a PSA/Addendum because the consultation process was carried out for the PEIR.

Project Approach & Understanding
WRA is pleased to submit the following proposal
for the Wall Property Open Space Fuel Reduction
Project (Project). The Project will involve wildfire fuel reduction treatment activities within the 100-acre
Wall Property owned by the Town of Fairfax. Given
the property’s proximity to residences, frequent public trail use, and adjacency to other open space lands,
the Town and the Ross Valley Fire Department (RVFD)
have identified the property as a high-priority area
for wildfire fuel reduction. Based on the proposed fuel reduction treatments, including prescribed herbivory
(goat grazing), manual thinning via chainsaws and
hand tools, and potential masticator operation
along the Marinda fire road, we understand that the
Project is intended to reduce hazardous fuel loads,
improve defensible space, and enhance long-term fire
resiliency while maintaining the ecological integrity
of native coast live oak woodland, grassland, and
chaparral communities.

The Town intends to rely on the CalVTP PEIR to
complete the CEQA process for the Project. WRA
will provide the necessary technical studies to
document the Project’s consistency with the CalVTP
PEIR, including biological and cultural resources field surveys and written technical reports of findings.

WRA understands that while a small portion of the
Project site is within the modeled CalVTP Treatable
Landscape, a majority of the site is outside of the
Treatable Landscape. Therefore, WRA will prepare
a PSA and PEIR Addendum to demonstrate that
the site-specific impacts would not result in new or
substantially more severe significant effects than
those analyzed in the CalVTP PEIR. Our approach will
ensure early identification of biological and cultural
resource constraints, compliance with applicable
Standard Project Requirements (SPR) identified in
the CalVTP PEIR, and preparation of clear, defensible
CEQA documents to support timely Project approval
and implementation.

WRA, INC. | WRA-CA.COM 10
PROPOSAL FOR THE TOWN OF FAIRFAX | CEQA SERVICES FOR THE WALL PROPERTY OPEN SPACE FUEL REDUCTION ALTA staff will conduct an on-site field reconnaissance of the 100-acre Project site through systematic
pedestrian examination of the ground surface.

In accordance with established standards, field
reconnaissance will be conducted using transects
spaced no more than 20 meters apart, and a shovel
will be used to expose mineral soil and examine
sediments for evidence of cultural materials. Any
artifacts or cultural materials identified will be
logged in the field. All resources identified within the Project site will be recorded using the standard State
of California Department of Parks and Recreation
Archaeological Site Forms. As cultural resources are
located during the survey, approximate boundaries will
be delineated and the location of the resource plotted
on topographic maps. A Global Positioning System
(GPS) capable of map grade accuracy will be used to
record cultural resources. Site recordation will include site and feature mapping, completion of site record
forms, and photography. As appropriate, a limited
narrative will be provided to further describe the
nature, extent, and location of resources. This scope
of work includes enough time to document one small
cultural resource, if present within the Project site. If additional cultural resources are found, a change order would be required.

ALTA will prepare an Archaeological Survey Report
(ASR) in accordance with the standard guidelines
in Archaeological Resource Management Reports.
2 The ASR will include a summary of the identification
efforts undertaken in the study, consultation with
relevant agencies, tribes, and local governments, a
summary of archaeological methods and findings,
and make preliminary recommendations for the
appropriate treatment and/or evaluation of resources.

The ASR will be sufficient to satisfy the requirements
defined in CEQA. One draft copy will be submitted to
the Town in a digital format for review and comment.

Deliverables
• Archaeological Survey Report
• This task covers Additional Task 3 listed in the RFP
2 California Office of Historic Preservation, “Archaeological Resource Management Reports (ARMR): Recommended Contents and Format,” California Office of Historic Preservation, 1990.

Task 1.2: Biological Resources Field Surveys
WRA staff will conduct a thorough review of existing
biological information and perform site-specific
surveys of the Project site sufficient to support the
analysis in the PSA/PEIR Addendum pertaining to
biological resources. WRA biologists will conduct
field surveys pursuant to CalVTP SPR BIO-1 and also
follow guidelines in the Statewide Fuels Reduction
Environmental Protection Plan to identify special-status species and sensitive habitats within the treatment
area.

A review of the physical environment is necessary to
understand if wetlands, streams, sensitive vegetation
communities or other sensitive land cover types
have the potential to be present within the Project
site. Background resources for the literature review
include, but are not limited to, climate data from the
National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration
(NOAA), the Soil Survey of Marin County, U.S.

Geological Survey (USGS) 7.5-minute quadrangle(s),
USGS National Hydrography Dataset (NHD), USFWS
National Wetlands Inventory (NWI), California Aquatic
Resources Inventory (CARI), Marin Map Database, and
aerial photography.

Additionally, WRA biologists will review the CalVTP
PEIR appendices and conduct search of the CDFW
California Natural Diversity Database (CNDDB), the
California Native Plant Society (CNPS) Electronic Rare
Plant Inventory, and U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service
(USFWS) Information for Planning and Conservation
(IPaC) database to determine which special-status
species and designated Critical Habitat occur in
the vicinity of the Project site. Other supporting
documentation may include CDFW Wildlife Habitat
Relations database, eBird online databases, the
Consortium of California Herbaria (CCH), Calflora, and
other published literature on the flora and fauna of
Marin County and environs. Based on this background
research, WRA will compile a list of species with the
potential to occur on the Project site.

Following the literature review, WRA biologists will
conduct site visits throughout the entire Project site to map land cover types and suitable habitat for specialstatus plant and wildlife species. Land cover types will include developed or disturbed areas, natural
communities (i.e., vegetation), and aquatic resources
(e.g., wetlands, streams). Land cover types will be
characterized following the Marin County Fine Scale
WRA, INC. | WRA-CA.COM 11
PROPOSAL FOR THE TOWN OF FAIRFAX | CEQA SERVICES FOR THE WALL PROPERTY OPEN SPACE FUEL REDUCTION Vegetation Map, Manual of California Vegetation v.

2.0, CDFW VegCAMP, and other relevant literature
where land cover types do not fit within the natural
community classification. Likewise, WRA biologists
will note areas with pronounced infestations of highly
flammable plants (e.g., acacia, eucalyptus); however,
fine-scale invasive species mapping will not be
included as part of this assessment.

As noted, aquatic resources will be included in
the land cover mapping. The mapping will be
sufficient for planning purposes; however, a formal
aquatic resources delineation is not necessary for
the Project. As with all land cover types, WRA will
characterize aquatic features and make a preliminary
determination as to their jurisdiction (e.g., Clean
Water Act, California Fish and Game Code). Total land
cover mapping will be a mix of aerial photograph
interpretation (e.g., woodland canopy), topographic
modeling/interpretation (e.g., stream corridors), and
sub-meter GPS (e.g., seasonal wetland boundaries).

All plant and wildlife species will be identified to
taxonomic level sufficient to determine regulatory
status; however, WRA is not proposing protocol-level
special-status plant or wildlife surveys at this time.

Rather, WRA proposes to conduct such surveys based
on the findings of this assessment and the final fuels
treatment methods and locations. If special-status
species are observed during this assessment, WRA
will note the location and extent of such species in the assessment.

Collectively, WRA biologists conducting the site visit
will have ISA certification(s), 40-hour USACE wetland
delineation training, and extensive familiarity with the flora and fauna of Marin County.

Task 1.3: Biological Resources Technical Report
Following completion of the biological resources field
surveys, WRA will prepare a Biological Resources
Technical Report (BRTR) that summarizes the results
of the literature review and field surveys. The BRTR
will be consistent with the CalVTP PEIR requirements
for biological documentation. Inclusive in the report
will be sections regarding the purpose of the study,
project description, the regulatory background,
assessment methodology, assessment results, and
recommendations for avoidance or mitigation for
potential impacts to sensitive biological resources.

Likewise, WRA will provide recommendations for
additional studies or in-depth analysis for sensitive
natural resources should they be warranted.

The BRTR will include a regulatory background
section which will contain relevant information
regarding CalVTP as well as state, regional, and
local policies pertaining to biological resources. The
Project description included in the BRTR will focus
on the treatment methods and locations that could
compromise sensitive biological resources.

The assessment methods and results will detail
the extent of the site visits, provide the surveyor
credentials, and document the total field hours spent.

All spatial data collected during the site visit will be entered in ArcGIS and attributed in a GeoDatabase.

Such data will be used to draft report maps and will
be shared digitally with the Town and the RVFD. All
land cover descriptions will include dominant and
characteristic plant species, membership rule for
delineating between types, total area and location,
fire characteristics, and regulatory or sensitivity
designation. All observed plants and wildlife will
be included as a separate appendix. All specialstatus species documented in the greater vicinity of the Project site will be included in a separate
appendix. The potential for occurrence, potential
project impacts, and a brief description of avoidance/
mitigation measures will be determined and included
in this appendix.

The recommendations section of the BRTR will provide
recommendations for implementing the proposed
Project in accordance with SPRs identified in the
CalVTP PEIR. Recommendations for future surveys, if
such are warranted (e.g., special-status plant survey), and detailed resource-specific avoidance/mitigation
measures will be provided.

PROPOSAL FOR THE TOWN OF FAIRFAX | CEQA SERVICES FOR THE WALL PROPERTY OPEN SPACE FUEL REDUCTION Task 2. Prepare CalVTP Addendum
Task 2.1: CEQA Initiation and Coordination
WRA proposes to initiate the environmental review
process by holding a kick-off meeting with the Town
to discuss project objectives, schedule, and applicable regulatory requirements. Under this task, WRA will
review all background information provided by the
Town including prior environmental documents,
GIS data, and project design information, and will
prepare a Request for Information for any additional
data needs. WRA will also use this task for project
management activities including coordinating with
subconsultants, communication with the Town to
manage the production and submittal of work
products and providing updates on the project
schedule.

Task 2.2: Develop CEQA Project Description
Using relevant background information and Project
plans provided by the Town, WRA will prepare a draft
Project Description for the PSA which will include
discussions of the following: 1) Project site regional
and local location; 2) Project objectives and goals; 3) Project elements and characteristics; 4) a summary
of the Project’s relationship to the CalVTP PEIR, and
5) a list of approvals and regulatory permits that
may be required for the Project. WRA will prepare a
draft CEQA Project Description to be submitted to the
Town within two weeks of receiving all background
information needed from the Town. WRA will revise
the Project Description based on one round of
comments from the Town.

Task 2.3: Preparation of Project-Specific Analysis and
PEIR Addendum
WRA will prepare a PSA pursuant to the CalVTP
PEIR and CEQA Guidelines §15183 and related
provisions. Based on a preliminary review of the
proposed treatment area and understanding of the
proposed treatment methods, WRA anticipates that
this Project will not result in any new substantially or more severe significant impacts than those analyzed
in the CalVTP PEIR; therefore, a combined PSA and
PEIR Addendum is the appropriate CEQA pathway.

WRA will prepare a PSA/PEIR Addendum which will
include 1) the Project Description developed under
Task 2.2, 2) a discussion of environmental impacts by
resource area and evaluation of whether these impacts
are consistent with those analyzed in the CalVTP
PEIR, and 3) identification of applicable mitigation
measures and monitoring requirements. WRA will use
the Archaeological Survey Report and BRTR described
above to support the analysis of impacts to biological
and cultural resources in the PSA/PEIR Addendum.

As noted above under Task 1.1, AB 52 has already
been completed for projects using a PSA/PEIR
Addendum. However, in accordance with CalVTP PEIR
Mitigation Measure SPR CUL-2, the Project proponent
is required to notify geographically affiliated Native
American tribes of the proposed Project. As part of
this task, WRA will prepare notification letters for
the Town to send to local tribes that will include 1) a description of the treatment location and boundaries,
2) a narrative of the treatment objectives, 3) a
description of the treatment methods and associated
acreages, 4) a map of the treatment area, and 5) a
request for information regarding potential impacts to
cultural resources from the proposed treatment.

WRA will submit the draft PSA/PEIR Addendum to
the Town and will revise the draft based on up to two
rounds of review. Once the Town has approved the PSA/
PEIR addendum, WRA will prepare the final PSA/PEIR
Addendum and Mitigation Monitoring and Reporting
Program (MMRP) which will contain all mitigation
measures included in the PSA/PEIR Addendum. WRA
will also prepare the project-specific CEQA Findings,
as required by CEQA Guidelines §15091, using the
PSA CEQA Findings and Statement of Overriding
Considerations template.

WRA will also prepare the Notice of Determination
(NOD) for review and signature by the lead agency.

WRA will file the NOD with the Marin County Clerk
and State Clearinghouse via CEQAsubmit within five
working days of Project approval.

Deliverables
• Project Notification letters addressed to Native
American contacts
• Draft and Final PSA/PEIR Addendum
• This task covers Additional Tasks 9 and 10 listed in
the RFP
Task 2.4: Public Meetings
WRA’s Principal and Project Manager will attend up
to two in-person public meetings for the project.

Additional meeting attendance can be added under a
separate contract upon request.
