PROJECT UNDERSTANDING
The City would like to retain NCE to develop plans, specifications, and engineer’s estimate (PS&E) for the 2026 Rancho Solano Pavement Maintenance Project. We recently completed the 100% draft PS&E for the 2025 Rancho Solano Pavement Maintenance Project for the resurfacing of about 5 centerline miles of rubberized cape seal (RCS) west of the Rancho Solano Parkway. This project will include a second phase of RCS application to approximately 11 centerline miles of streets in the Rancho Solano neighborhood east of Rancho Solano Parkway and a microsurfacing treatment on all of Rancho Solano Parkway from Mankas Corner Road to the end, as shown on the attached street list. It is assumed that plans will be prepared in a similar fashion to the 2025 Rancho Solano Pavement Maintenance Project. Improvement plan and striping sheets will be combined for the neighborhood streets given the simplicity of information being presented including RCS treatment limits, utility cover protections and adjustments, limited residential type striping, and base repair table quantities. Improvement and striping plans will be separate sheets and be drawn at a larger scale (typically 1:20) for Rancho Solano Parkway. Striping updates for Rancho Solano Parkway include striping for Class II bike lanes. We understand from the City that base repair quantities should be limited based on the condition of the pavement.

The City has also indicated that all streets within the neighborhood are private and that the City is responsible for maintenance of the street pavements only and not sidewalk, curb and gutter, or curb ramps. Therefore, ADA compliant curb ramps are not included in the neighborhood improvements and concrete repairs for curb and gutter and sidewalk are generally not included in the neighborhood improvements except for limited areas where the condition impacts the pavement rehabilitation or drainage based on visual observations.

Rancho Solano Parkway will be evaluated for ADA compliance including new, reconstructed or retrofitted curb ramps.

The City would like to begin design in August 2025, bidding in Winter 2025, and construction in Spring 2026. This project is anticipated to be bid in a package that includes the 2025 Rancho Solano Pavement Maintenance Project, which will require coordination to finalize and package together for bidding.

Key Assumptions
To deliver the most cost-effective design strategy, NCE has made the following key assumptions:

City’s Responsibilities
NCE has assumed that the City will be able to provide the following to the extent available:

1. Information regarding utilities (i.e., water, sanitary sewer, electrical, and storm drain), boundary, right-ofway, and property limits, and existing construction as available.

2. Aerial maps for base-mapping information.

3. Project requirements, including design objectives, budget, constraints, and criteria.

4. Existing technical specifications in Caltrans format as a Word Document as the basis for developing new technical specifications.

5. City Standard Provisions and Standard Design Criteria.

6. Electronic files of the City’s cover sheet template, if preferred.

7. Front End specifications.

Pavement Testing and Design
No pavement deflection testing, coring, or pavement design is included. Within the private neighborhood, the City would like to use RCS on all street sections with isolated base repairs. On Rancho Solano Parkway, the City would like to use microsurfacing with isolated base repairs.

Topographic Surveying, Base Maps, and Right‐of‐Way

1. To provide a cost-effective design, RCS street sections will only include simple improvement and striping sheets on vicinity maps showing limits of RCS, striping types and quantities, utility cover locations for protection and/or adjustment, limited concrete repairs, and base repair quantity tables. Base repairs will be marked in the field on the pavement in white paint and numbered and verified prior to construction by the City’s CM and NCE.

2. Rancho Solano Parkway has been identified for microsurfacing treatment, striping including Class II bike lanes, and ADA curb ramp improvements. The improvements will be shown on City aerial base maps for street layout plans showing the alignment and stationing of the roadway, striping, curb ramps, etc. Plan sheets will include curb ramps, striping, and base repair locations and schedules. Base repairs will be marked in the field on the pavement in white paint and numbered and verified prior to construction.

3. A critical assumption is that all improvement work will be within City right-of-way or maintenance districts as this impacts the level of effort required for the completion of design.

4. Design sheet information will be based on field inventories and approximate field measurements to verify items such as utility covers, striping, and street widths and lengths.

5. Again, to provide cost-effective design, our scope does not include any topographic surveys with the assumption that the project will not include significant drainage improvements, complex changes in street geometry or intersection improvements, or full pavement section reconstruction. Should we determine that aerial base maps are not sufficient and topographic information is required for developing improvements such as more complex pavement geometries and/or streets that may need to be reconstructed, we can provide topographic survey work at an additional cost.

Utility Coordination and Location

1. Assumes no lowering or relocation of utilities.

2. No utility coordination is included.

3. No utility alignments will be shown on plans.

4. Utility covers will be field located approximately and inventoried for the purposes of placing onto plan sheets and developing bid quantities for protection and/or adjustment of utility covers.

Traffic Striping

1. Given the generally residential nature of this paving project, individual traffic striping plans will not be developed for the private neighborhood improvement sheets, and vicinity maps will only include striping tables with types and quantities. If necessary, we will include additional striping details for schematic purposes or to show how custom applications of striping are to be completed.

2. Traffic striping plans will only be developed for Rancho Solano Parkway, which is identified for striping improvements including Class II bike lanes. It is assumed that the addition of Class II bike lanes will be achieved with striping and delineators. This scope currently does not include design of road diet, changes

Page 396 of 1141 ends

City of Fairfield
2026 Rancho Solano Pavement Maintenance Project
Scope of Work
August 19, 2025
Page | 3
in lane configurations, or substantial changes to the roadway geometries. It is understood that the City wishes to maintain 11’ lanes for vehicular traffic.

3. Traffic striping will generally be a combination of matching existing striping and updates to striping based on City policies and CA MUTCD.

4. The fee includes an allocation ($8,000) for a traffic engineer to review striping on Rancho Solano Parkway throughout each stage of design.

Traffic Control Plans
Traffic control plans are not included in this scope of work. We have assumed, as is typical, to have the contractor prepare traffic control plans in accordance with project technical specifications and requirements and submit them to the City traffic engineering group for review.

Curb Ramps
Curb ramp replacement is not included in the private neighborhood improvements.

Curb ramps will be evaluated and either constructed, replaced or retrofitted along Rancho Solano Parkway.

It is assumed that all non-compliant curb ramps will be constructed, replaced, or retrofitted (e.g., detectable warning surface embedded in concrete) in accordance with Caltrans and/or City standards. Curb ramps will be replaced or retrofitted based on guidance from the Department of Justice/Department of Transportation Joint Technical Assistance on the Title II of the Americans with Disabilities Act Requirements to Provide Curb Ramps when Streets, Roads, or Highways are altered through Resurfacing dated July 8, 2013. Further clarification on curb ramp replacement included in this scope of work is as follows:
 Replaced/retrofitted/added curb ramps are assumed to be readily constructed with only minor grade adjustments.
 Utility relocations (e.g. utility poles, utility boxes, and drainage inlets, for example) required to construct curb ramps are not included in this scope of work.
 All ramp construction shall be within the City ROW.
 Curb ramps will be field-verified to determine the appropriate standard case ramp; NCE will develop a curb ramp detail for those that will require a custom curb ramp. Curb ramp details will not be to survey accuracy and not contain elevations; therefore, some adjustments may be required during construction.

Crosswalks and implied walkways between curb ramps on Rancho Solano Parkway will be checked with a smart level and compared with the latest PROWAG and Caltrans Design Information Bulletin (DIB) 82-06 accessibility guidance for both running slope and cross-slope. If the City elects to make slope corrections to crosswalks and walkways requiring regrading/reprofiling of intersections, topographic surveys will be needed and this and the required design work would be completed for additional scope and fee.

Drainage
No drainage improvements are included in this project, except as described below.

Curb and Gutter and Sidewalk
Per City direction, no curb and gutter or sidewalk replacement is included in this project. Curb and gutter sections will only be replaced to the extent that it affects pavement treatment (e.g., tree root uplift or settlement) or drainage. Sidewalk replacement is not included in this scope of work.

Encroachment Permit
No encroachment permits are included.

The purpose of our services will be to provide civil engineering design in support of the planned project by the City.

To accomplish the stated purpose, we propose the following scope of services.

Project Scope
Task 1 – Project Management & Meetings
1A) Project Kick‐off Meeting/Progress Meetings:

NCE’s Project Manager will arrange a Kick-Off Meeting with the City to initiate work on the project. The objectives of the Kick-Off Meeting will be:

Review of the Scope of Work
Establish Lines of Communication
Confirm Deadlines
Establish Project Schedule and Milestones
Define Design and Operation Criteria
Whether a simple preventive maintenance project or a complex reconstruction project, it is critical to establish effective lines of communication with, and coordination amongst, the various stakeholders from the start to ensure delivery of a high-quality project within budget and on schedule.

Throughout the project, NCE staff will be available to attend regularly scheduled progress meetings with the City to maintain good communications for this project, improve efficiency, and reduce the number of design review and coordination meetings. Therefore, we have assumed up to three (3) progress meetings to be included in our scope.

The purpose of the progress meetings will be to identify and resolve any design or funding issues that may surface in a timely manner, present design alternatives and recommendations to City staff, and continue coordination with project stakeholders as necessary.

Deliverables: Kick-off/Progress Meeting Agendas and Summaries Task 2 – Plans, Specifications & Estimates
The work that will be performed developing the PS&E are outlined in the subsequent Tasks. 2A) Design Data Gathering:

NCE will review relevant available data and records from the City as listed in the previous section, public and private utility providers, and other sources that may be appropriate to support the preparation of project contract documents. These may include, but are not limited to, the City drainage structure inventory maps, aerial photographs of the City, as-built street improvement and infrastructure plans, and striping and markings. The gathered information will be compiled and included in the base map used for design if relevant. Based on our review, we will identify any data gaps or missing information and provide this information to the City for review and discussion. This task will also include field review time necessary to locate utility covers, mark base repairs and limited curb and gutter repairs in white paint and obtain measurements, confirm street widths and lengths, review curb ramps or proposed curb ramp locations, and inventory striping.

2B) 60% PS&E:

NCE will prepare the 60% PS&E for the planned street sections. The 60% plans for the neighborhood street sections will include combined improvement and striping plan sheets showing limits of RCS and microsurfacing treatment, striping, location of existing utility covers, limited curb and gutter repairs, and base repairs. Additionally, a table summarizing major work items (e.g. treatment area, base repair area, etc.) and their estimated quantities will be developed and included on the respective plan sheets. We find that this information is particularly useful to contractors when assembling construction bids and schedules, thus resulting in more competitive bids, and to the City for verifying pay quantities during construction.

The 60% plans for Rancho Solano Parkway will incorporate typical design elements including improvement and striping plans for showing the limits the microsurfacing treatment, base repairs, curb ramps, limited curb and gutter repairs, and striping and markings including the addition of Class II bike lanes.

The plans will be prepared in AutoCAD format on 22” x 34” sheets, drawn at a scale of 1” = 40’ and 1” = 20’ for the neighborhood street sections and Rancho Solano Parkway, respectively.

Base repairs will be marked in the field on the pavement in white paint and numbered and verified prior to construction.

NCE understands that the City will provide the “Front End” documents and Special Provisions. The technical specifications will be prepared in Microsoft Word format and will follow the City’s formatting conventions. The technical specifications and details will reference the City’s standard provisions and Caltrans 2024 Standards (including subsequent updates or other edition as preferred by the City). NCE will, however, recommend deviating from Caltrans Standards where, from our experience, such changes will improve the likelihood of achieving a successful construction project without compromising the integrity of the design. NCE recognizes the value of incorporating Caltrans Standard Specifications in projects such as these, both because these specifications have been developed by an agency that designs and builds a vast amount of highway work, and because most contractors performing public works construction in Northern California are familiar with them. Caltrans, however, has the resources to administer projects quite differently than most local agencies, so NCE advocates modifying the Caltrans Standard Specifications to better fit the abilities, needs, and budgets of municipal agencies.

NCE also believes that an efficient, yet thorough Quality Control/Quality Assurance program is essential for getting the maximum value out of every dollar spent on construction. Projects designed by NCE therefore contain technical specifications that attempt to optimize the balance between using rigid, but time-tested, specifications and meeting local agency needs, with the ultimate goal of obtaining the very best value for its clients.

The Engineer’s Cost Estimate will be prepared in Microsoft Excel format and will be based on the most recent construction cost data available to NCE for projects of this type. Because of NCE’s involvement in the design and construction of numerous similar projects throughout California, we are confident in our ability to estimate the construction cost of the City’s project. This initial estimate will then be updated and refined as the design effort progresses.

It is assumed that the City will require a 5- to 10-day review and comment period once the 60% PS&E package is submitted.

Deliverables: One electronic copy of 60% plans, technical specifications, and engineer’s estimate. 2C) 90% PS&E:

The 60% PS&E will be revised to incorporate comments received from the City. NCE will meet with the City to review these comments, from which the 90% PS&E will be prepared. NCE will provide a response to each comment that is

Page 399 of 1141 ends

City of Fairfield
2026 Rancho Solano Pavement Maintenance Project
Scope of Work
August 19, 2025
Page | 6
included in a comment table provided by the City. The 90% PS&E will include additional design information and details typically expected at this stage of completion. The 90% PS&E will then be packaged and submitted in a similar manner to the 60% PS&E unless directed otherwise.

The technical specifications will be further refined at this stage of the design. We will review and comment on the City’s Front-End documents (bid and contract forms, General Provisions, Special Provisions, etc.), which the City will prepare and provide. The Engineer’s Cost Estimate will also be updated to reflect the revised quantities of work depicted on the plans.

It is assumed that the City will require a 5-day review and comment period once the 90% PS&E package is submitted.

Deliverables: One electronic copy of 90% plans, technical specifications, and engineer’s estimate. 2D) Final (100%) PS&E:

The 90% PS&E will be revised to incorporate comments received from the City. NCE will again meet with the City to review these comments, from which the final (100%) PS&E for both the 2025 and 2026 Projects will be prepared.

NCE will provide a response to each comment that is included in a comment table provided by the City. The final (100%) PS&E will include all notes and details necessary for construction. A final (100%) PS&E will then be packaged and submitted in a similar manner to the 90% PS&E unless directed otherwise. It is assumed that the City will require a 5-day review and comment period once the final (100%) PS&E package is submitted.

Upon receipt of the City’s final review comments, the project documents will be finalized for bidding purposes.

A final quantity calculation will be tabulated, and this will be entered into the final Engineer’s Cost Estimate for the project. All final documents will be reviewed, stamped and signed by NCE’s registered civil engineer, and the final PS&E will be delivered to the City in electronic formats.

Deliverables: Electronic files of the final plans for the 2025 and 2026 Projects, one combined technical specifications for both projects, and engineer’s estimate for each project. The electronic files for the final construction plans, specifications, and engineer’s estimate will be in PDF, Microsoft Word, and Microsoft Excel, respectively. AutoCAD files (2024) can be provided upon request.

Task 3 – Bidding and Construction Support
3A) Bidding Support Services:

NCE will provide the City with assistance during the advertisement and bidding periods for this bid package. This includes responding to questions received about the project design and preparation of up to one addendum and/or clarifications to the PS&E that are deemed necessary. We have included up to 18 hours of staff time for bidding support, and any effort beyond that will be on a time and materials basis at an additional cost. This does not include attendance at any pre-bid meetings or checking or tabulating bid results.

Deliverables: Prepare responses to questions received regarding project design; prepare up to one addendum.

Note: This does not include attendance at any pre-bid meetings or checking or tabulating bid results. 3B) Construction Support Services:

NCE will provide support services to the City during construction of the project for this bid package. At a minimum, these services are anticipated to include reviewing contractor submittals and responding to contractor requests for information (RFIs). If effort beyond the estimated 20 hours is necessary, NCE staff time will be delivered on a time

AGENDA REPORT
DATE: September 16, 2025
TO: Mayor and Council
FROM: David Gassaway, City Manager
SUBJECT: Resolution 2025-187 PW Zanjero Water Supply Portfolio and Water Legal Services Authorizing the City Manager to Execute a Professional Services Agreement Between the City of Fairfield and Zanjero, LLC. for Water Supply Portfolio Management Services and Water Related Legal Services
Funding Source: $250,000; Water Enterprise Fund
Contact: Michael J. Hether, (707) 428-7485

RECOMMENDED ACTION
Adopt resolution.

STATEMENT OF ISSUE
The Fairfield Municipal Utilities (FMU) provides water to the City on a continuous basis and is responsible for ensuring that the City’s water supply portfolio is adequate to meet future growth.

The proposed professional services agreement builds upon urban water management planning efforts and includes specialized water resource planning support services to ensure that the City’s water supply portfolio can meet the needs of the City’s general plan and identify opportunities to expand and secure new water supplies for the City of Fairfield. Staff recommend the City Council authorize the city manager to execute a professional services agreement with Zanjero LLC (Zanjero).

DISCUSSION
The City of Fairfield relies on two surface water sources: Lake Berryessa and the Delta. The water from Lake Berryessa, also referred to as the Solano Project (SP), is derived from the Upper Putah Creek watershed and captured by Monticello Dam to form Lake Berryessa. The water from the Delta, also referred to as State Water Project (SWP), is derived from the Northern Sacramento River Valley watershed and captured by Oroville Dam to form Lake Oroville. All water supplies are delivered through contracts with the Solano County Water Agency (SCWA), which acts as the

Page 408 of 1141 ends

wholesaler of raw water for both SP and SWP. FMU is the retail agency that is responsible for delivering potable water to Municipal and Industrial (M&I) customers.

Some of the responsibilities required of retail agencies who provide M&I water are to conduct urban water management planning. An Urban Water Management Plan (UWMP) is a document that supports long-term water resource planning to ensure the availability of adequate water supplies for demands imposed by future growth. An UWMP plan generally describes and evaluates existing water supply sources with projected population and future water demands.

The City’s UWMP, which is routinely updated every five years, seeks to ensure an appropriate level of reliability of existing water supplies in the City’s water supply portfolio.

Long term water resource planning also includes identifying opportunities to enhance the City’s water supply portfolio – such as acquiring additional water rights or securing long-term supply contracts for dry and critically dry years. Equally important is optimizing and maximizing the use of existing water resources. In order to achieve this, the planning process must include the development of a comprehensive strategy that balances cost, reliability, risk, and sustainability across multiple water sources. Upon completion, this scope of work will result in the development of a water supply portfolio management tool to support informed decision-making.

This tool will guide actions such as determining, in wet years, the quantity and type of water that could be made available for one-time transfer agreements.

This scope of work is a continuation of previous efforts to develop strategies to guard the City’s water supply against implementation of the Bay-Delta Plan. The Bay-Delta Plan seeks to increase water quantity and quality into the Sacramento-San Joaquin Delta Watershed and San Francisco Bay in compliance with the Federal and California Endangered Species Acts to protect a variety of different aquatic species of concern, particularly the Chinook Salmon, the Steelhead/Rainbow Trout, the Longfin Smelt, and the Delta Smelt.

Zanjero has worked with the City to support both its current and future water needs, including assisting FMU staff with water resource planning and regulatory analysis relating to the Bay-Delta Plan. Currently, FMU does not have staff dedicated to water resource planning. Given Zanjero’s comprehensive knowledge of the City’s water system and ongoing involvement in water system projects, Zanjero is the most qualified subject matter expert for this scope of work.

FINANCIAL IMPACT
The professional service agreement with Zanjero for Water Supply Portfolio Management Services and Water Related Legal Services will authorize a not-to-exceed contract for $250,000.

Funding for the agreement will be provided from the Water Enterprise Fund (Fund 461)

TO: Mayor and Council
FROM: David Gassaway, City Manager
SUBJECT: Resolution 2025-188 PW Updated Federal Transit Administration Drug and Alcohol Testing Policy
Authorizing the Adoption of the City of Fairfield’s Updated Federal Transit Administration Drug and Alcohol Policy
Funding Source: N/A
Contact: Melissa Minton, (707) 434-3804

RECOMMENDED ACTION
Adopt resolution.

STATEMENT OF ISSUE
All recipients of Federal Transit Administration (FTA) funds and contractors of those recipients are required to implement and maintain an FTA compliant drug and alcohol policy for all safetysensitive employees. The City of Fairfield receives funding directly from FTA and as a subrecipient from other agencies, such as the California Department of Transportation. The proposed resolution adopts the City of Fairfield’s updated FTA Drug and Alcohol Policy (Policy) in accordance with recent changes to FTA drug and alcohol testing regulations.

DISCUSSION
The Omnibus Transportation Employee Testing Act of 1991 mandates that the Secretary of Transportation issue regulatory requirements that prohibit the misuse of drug and alcohol within the transportation industry. The FTA is delegated the authority to implement these rules within the transit agency to prevent accidents, injuries, of fatalities related to the misuse of alcohol and use of prohibited drugs by employees who perform safety-sensitive functions, as defined in 49 Code of Federal Regulations (CFR) Part 655.

As the City receives operational and capital funding from the FTA to support the operation of FAST services and various transit-related capital projects, the City is required to maintain an

Page 423 of 1141 ends

updated drug and alcohol policy that is compliant with the most up-to-date FTA drug and alcohol testing regulations. The proposed Policy provides updates in accordance with the most recent requirements adopted by FTA.

The proposed Policy update removes language that identifies urine testing as the sole drug testing collection method, which enables use of the temporary oral fluid testing option in accordance with changes adopted by the FTA. The update also modifies the format of the Policy utilizing an FTA-approved policy builder to ensure the City’s Policy remains compliant with all other FTA drug and alcohol testing requirements.

1. Purpose of Policy
The City of Fairfield provides public transit and paratransit services for residents of Fairfield. Part of the City of Fairfield’s mission is to ensure that this service is delivered safely, efficiently, and effectively by establishing a drug and alcohol-free work environment, and to ensure that the workplace remains free from the effects of drugs and alcohol in order to promote the health and safety of employees and the general public. In keeping with this mission, the City of Fairfield declares that unlawful manufacture, distribution, dispense, possession, or use of controlled substances or misuse of alcohol is prohibited for all covered employees.

This policy complies with 49 CFR Part 655, as amended, and 49 CFR Part 40, as amended. Copies of Parts 655 and 40 are available in the drug and alcohol program manager’s office and can be found on the internet at the Federal Transit Administration (FTA) Drug and Alcohol Program website http://transit-safety.fta.dot.gov/DrugAndAlcohol/.

All covered employees are required to submit to drug and alcohol tests as a condition of employment in accordance with 49 CFR Part 655.

Portions of this policy are not FTA-mandated but reflect the City of Fairfield’s policy. These additional provisions are identified by bold text.

In addition, the Department of Transportation (DOT) has published 49 CFR Part 32, implementing the Drug-Free Workplace Act of 1988, which requires the establishment of drug-free workplace policies and the reporting of certain drug-related offenses to the FTA.

The unlawful manufacture, distribution, dispensation, possession or use of controlled substances and/or misuse of alcohol is prohibited in the covered workplace. An employee who is convicted of any criminal drug statute for a violation occurring in the workplace shall notify the City of Fairfield’s Human Resources Department no later than five calendar days after such conviction.

The City of Fairfield is dedicated to assuring fair and equitable application of this substance abuse policy. Therefore, supervisors and managers are required to use and apply all aspects of this policy in an unbiased and impartial manner. Any supervisor or manager who knowingly disregards the requirements of this policy or who is found to deliberately misuse the policy in regard to subordinates shall be subject to disciplinary action, which may include termination.

2. Covered Employees
This policy applies to every person, including an applicant or transferee, who performs or will perform a “safety-sensitive function” as defined in Part 655, section 655.4. The City of Fairfield employees that do not perform safety-sensitive functions as defined in Part 655, section 655.4 are not covered under this policy.

You are a covered employee if you perform any of the following:

FTA Drug and Alcohol Policy – City of Fairfield

Page 4 of 12 ends

• Operating a revenue service vehicle, in or out of revenue service • Operating a non-revenue vehicle requiring a commercial driver’s license • Controlling movement or dispatch of a revenue service vehicle • Maintaining (including repairs, overhaul and rebuilding) of a revenue service vehicle or equipment used in revenue service
• Carrying a firearm for security purposes
See Attachment A for a list of covered positions by job title.

3. Prohibited Behavior
Use of illegal drugs is prohibited at all times. Prohibited drugs include:
• marijuana
• cocaine
• phencyclidine (PCP)
• opioids
• amphetamines
All City of Fairfield employees may be tested for these same substances.

All covered employees are prohibited from performing or continuing to perform safety-sensitive functions while having an alcohol concentration of 0.04 or greater.

All covered employees are prohibited from consuming alcohol while performing safety-sensitive job functions or while on-call to perform safety-sensitive job functions. If an on-call employee has consumed alcohol, they must acknowledge the use of alcohol at the time that they are called to report for duty. The covered employee will subsequently be relieved of their responsibilities and may be subject to discipline. If the on-call employee claims the ability to perform his or her safety-sensitive function, they must take an alcohol test with a result of less than 0.02 prior to performance.

The City of Fairfield, under its own authority, prohibits the consumption of alcohol while the employee is on duty or anytime the employee is in a City of Fairfield uniform.

Under the City of Fairfield’s authority, a non-DOT alcohol test can be performed at any time an employee is on duty.

All covered employees are prohibited from consuming alcohol within four hours prior to the performance of safety-sensitive job functions.

Page 429 of 1141 ends

FTA Drug and Alcohol Policy – City of Fairfield

Page 5 of 12 ends

4. Consequences for Violations
Following a positive drug or alcohol (BAC at or above 0.04) test result or test refusal, the employee will be immediately removed from safety-sensitive duty and provided with contact information for Substance Abuse Professionals (SAPs).

Following a BAC of 0.02 or greater, but less than 0.04, the employee will be immediately removed from safety-sensitive duties until the start of their next regularly scheduled duty period (but for not less than eight hours) unless a retest results in the employee’s alcohol concentration being less than 0.02.

Treatment/Discipline
Per the City of Fairfield policy, the first time a City of Fairfield employee tests positive for drugs or alcohol (BAC at or above 0.04) will result in mandatory referral to an SAP for assessment formulation or a treatment plan and execution of a return-to-duty agreement.

The cost of any treatment or rehabilitation services will be paid directly by the employee or their insurance provider. The employee will be permitted to take accrued sick leave or administrative leave to participate in the prescribed treatment program. If the employee has insufficient accrued leave, the employee shall be placed on leave-without-pay until the employee has successfully completed the required treatment program and has been released to return to duty. Any leave taken, either paid or unpaid, shall be considered leave taken under the Family and Medical Leave Act and/or California Family Rights Act.

Failure to execute or remain compliant with the return-to-duty agreement may result in the termination of employment with the City of Fairfield.

The second instance of a verified positive drug or alcohol (BAC at or above 0.04) test result, including a sample submitted under the random, reasonable suspicion, return-to-duty, or follow-up drug and/or alcohol test provisions herein, may result in the termination of employment with the City of Fairfield.

A verified positive post-accident or reasonable suspicion drug and/or alcohol (BAC at or above

0.04) may result in the termination of employment with the City of Fairfield.

An alcohol test result of BAC of 0.02 to 0.039 shall result in the removal of the employee from duty for eight hours or the remainder of the day, whichever is longer. The employee will not be allowed to return to safety-sensitive duty until they submit to an alcohol test with a result of less than 0.02 BAC.

Refusal to submit to a drug or alcohol test shall be considered a positive test result and may result in the termination of employment with the City of Fairfield and referral to a substance abuse professional.

Refusal to submit to periodic unannounced follow-up drug and/or alcohol test shall be considered a direct act of insubordination and may result in the termination of employment with the City of Fairfield.

Page 430 of 1141 ends

FTA Drug and Alcohol Policy – City of Fairfield

Page 6 of 12 ends

A periodic unannounced follow-up drug and/or alcohol test that results in a verified positive may result in termination of employment with the City of Fairfield.

Failure of an employee to report a criminal drug statute conviction for a violation occurring in the workplace within five calendar days may result in termination of employment with the City of Fairfield.

5. Circumstances for Testing
Pre-Employment Testing
A negative pre-employment drug test result is required before an employee can first perform safetysensitive functions. If a pre-employment test is cancelled, the individual will be required to undergo another test and successfully pass with a verified negative result before performing safety-sensitive functions. Failure of a pre-employment drug test will disqualify an applicant from employment with the City of Fairfield for a period of at least one year.

If a covered employee has not performed a safety-sensitive function for 90 or more consecutive calendar days and has not been in the random testing pool during that time, the employee must take and pass a preemployment test before they can return to a safety-sensitive function.

A covered employee or applicant who has previously failed or refused a DOT drug and/or alcohol test must provide proof of having successfully completed a referral, evaluation, and treatment plan meeting DOT requirements.

Reasonable Suspicion Testing
All employees shall be subject to a drug and/or alcohol test when the City of Fairfield has reasonable suspicion to believe that the covered employee has used a prohibited drug and/or engaged in alcohol misuse. A reasonable suspicion referral for testing will be made by a trained supervisor or other trained company official on the basis of specific, contemporaneous, articulable observations concerning the appearance, behavior, speech, or body odors of the covered employee.

Covered employees may be subject to reasonable suspicion drug testing any time while on duty. Covered employees may be subject to reasonable suspicion alcohol testing while the employee is performing safety-sensitive functions, just before the employee is to perform safety-sensitive functions, or just after the employee has ceased performing such functions. Under the City of Fairfield’s authority, a nonDOT reasonable suspicion alcohol test may be performed any time the covered employee is on duty.

All employees covered under the sole authority of the City of Fairfield will be subject to non-DOT reasonable suspicion testing procedures.

The City of Fairfield shall be responsible for transporting the employee to the testing site.

Supervisors should avoid placing themselves and/or others into a situation which might endanger the physical safety of those present. The employee shall be placed on administrative leave pending disciplinary action described in Section 4 of this policy. An employee who refuses to submit to a

Page 431 of 1141 ends

FTA Drug and Alcohol Policy – City of Fairfield

Page 7 of 12 ends

drug/alcohol test shall not be permitted to finish their shift and shall immediately be placed on administrative leave pending the applicable disciplinary action specified in Section 4 of this policy.

When there are no specific, contemporaneous, articulable objective facts that indicate current drug and/or alcohol use, but the employee (who is not already a participant in a treatment program) admits to the abuse of alcohol or other substances to a supervisor in their chain of command, the employee shall be referred for assessment and treatment consistent with Section 4 and Section 8 of this policy. The City of Fairfield shall place the employee on administrative leave in accordance with the provisions set forth under Section 4 and Section 8 of this policy. Testing in this circumstance would be performed under the direct authority of the City of Fairfield. Since the employee self-referred to management, testing under this circumstance would not be considered a violation of this policy or a positive test result under Federal authority. However, self-referral does not exempt the covered employee from testing under Federal authority specified in Section 5 of this policy or the associated consequences specified in Section 4 of this policy.

Post-Accident Testing
Covered employees shall be subject to post-accident drug and alcohol testing under the following circumstances:

Fatal Accidents
As soon as practicable following an accident involving the loss of a human life, drug and alcohol tests will be conducted on each surviving covered employee operating the public transportation vehicle at the time of the accident. In addition, any other covered employee whose performance could have contributed to the accident, as determined by City of Fairfield using the best information available at the time of the decision, will be tested.

Non-fatal Accidents
As soon as practicable following an accident not involving the loss of a human life, drug and alcohol tests will be conducted on each covered employee operating the public transportation vehicle at the time of the accident if at least one of the following conditions is met:
(1) The accident results in injuries requiring immediate medical treatment away from the scene, unless the covered employee can be completely discounted as a contributing factor to the accident
(2) One or more vehicles incurs disabling damage and must be towed away from the scene, unless the covered employee can be completely discounted as a contributing factor to the accident
In addition, any other covered employee whose performance could have contributed to the accident, as determined by the City of Fairfield using the best information available at the time of the decision, will be tested.

A covered employee subject to post-accident testing must remain readily available, or it is considered a refusal to test. Nothing in this section shall be construed to require the delay of necessary medical attention for the injured following an accident or to prohibit a covered employee from leaving the

Page 432 of 1141 ends

FTA Drug and Alcohol Policy – City of Fairfield

Page 8 of 12 ends

scene of an accident for the period necessary to obtain assistance in responding to the accident or to obtain necessary emergency medical care.

Random Testing
Random drug and alcohol tests are unannounced and unpredictable, and the dates for administering random tests are spread reasonably throughout the calendar year. Random testing will be conducted at all times of the day when safety-sensitive functions are performed.

Testing rates will meet or exceed the minimum annual percentage rate set each year by the FTA administrator. The current year testing rates can be viewed online at www.transportation.gov/odapc/random-testing-rates.

The selection of employees for random drug and alcohol testing will be made by a scientifically valid method, such as a random number table or a computer-based random number generator. Under the selection process used, each covered employee will have an equal chance of being tested each time selections are made.

A covered employee may only be randomly tested for alcohol misuse while the employee is performing safety-sensitive functions, just before the employee is to perform safety-sensitive functions, or just after the employee has ceased performing such functions. A covered employee may be randomly tested for prohibited drug use anytime while on duty.

Each covered employee who is notified of selection for random drug or random alcohol testing must immediately proceed to the designated testing site.

Return to Duty Testing
Any employee who is allowed to return to safety-sensitive duty after failing or refusing to submit to a DOT drug and/or alcohol test must first be evaluated by a substance abuse professional (SAP), complete a SAP-required program of education and/or treatment, and provide a negative return-to-duty drug test result and/or an alcohol test result of less than 0.02. Any return-to-duty drug testing will be directly observed. All tests will be conducted in accordance with 49 CFR Part 40, Subpart O.

Follow-up Testing
Employees returning to safety-sensitive duty following a return-to-duty test will be required to undergo unannounced follow-up alcohol and/or drug testing for a period of one to five years, as directed by the SAP. The duration of testing will be extended to account for any subsequent leaves of absence, as necessary. The type (drug and/or alcohol), number, and frequency of such follow-up testing shall be directed by the SAP.

A covered employee may only be subject to follow-up alcohol testing while the employee is performing safety-sensitive functions, just before the employee is to perform safety-sensitive functions, or just after the employee has ceased performing such functions. A covered employee may be subject to follow-up drug testing anytime while on duty. All follow-up drug tests will be directly observed.

(1) Fail to appear for any test (except a pre-employment test) within a reasonable time, as determined by the City of Fairfield.
(2) Fail to remain at the testing site until the testing process is complete. An employee who leaves the testing site before the testing process commences for a pre-employment test has not refused to test. (3) Fail to provide a specimen for a drug or alcohol test.

(9) Fail to follow an observer’s instructions to raise and lower clothing and turn around during a directly-observed urine drug test.
(10) Possess or wear a prosthetic or other device used to tamper with the collection process. (11) Admit to the adulteration or substitution of a specimen to the collector or MRO. (12) Refuse to sign the certification at Step 2 of the Alcohol Testing Form (ATF). (13) Fail to remain readily available following an accident.

As a covered employee, if the MRO reports that you have a verified adulterated or substituted test result, you have refused to take a drug test.

As a covered employee, if you refuse to take a drug and/or alcohol test, you incur the same consequences as testing positive and will be immediately removed from performing safety-sensitive functions and provided with contact information for SAPs. Refusal to take a drug and/or alcohol test may result in termination.

8. Voluntary Self-Referral
Any employee who has a drug and/or alcohol use disorder and has not been notified of the requirement to submit to reasonable suspicion, random or post-accident testing or has not refused a drug or alcohol test may voluntarily refer themself to their City of Fairfield supervisor or the City of Fairfield’s Human Resources Department. In the instance of a self-referral or management referral, the individual will be referred to a substance abuse counselor.

The substance abuse counselor will evaluate the employee and make a specific recommendation regarding the appropriate treatment. Employees shall execute a return-to-work agreement in accordance with the treatment plan recommended by the substance abuse counselor. Employees are encouraged to voluntarily seek professional substance abuse assistance before any substance use or dependence affects job performance.

Failure to execute or remain compliant with the return-to-work agreement may result in the termination of employment with the City of Fairfield. Compliance with the return-to-work agreement means that the employee has submitted to a drug and/or alcohol test immediately prior to returning to work, the result of that test is negative, the employee is cooperating with their recommended treatment program, and the employee has agreed to periodic unannounced follow-up testing described in Section 5 of this policy. All tests performed as part of a return-to-work agreement are under the sole authority of City of Fairfield and will be performed using non-DOT testing forms.

A self-referral or management referral to the employer's approved counseling professional that was not precipitated by a positive test result does not constitute a violation of the Federal regulations and will not be considered as a positive test result in relation to the progressive discipline defined in Section 4 of this policy.

Page 435 of 1141 ends

FTA Drug and Alcohol Policy – City of Fairfield

Page 11 of 12 ends

Periodic unannounced follow-up drug and/or alcohol test conducted as a result of a self-referral or management referral which results in a verified positive shall be considered a positive test result in relation to the progressive discipline defined in Section 4 of this policy.

A voluntary referral does not shield an employee from the requirement to comply with drug and alcohol testing, nor does it shield an employee from disciplinary action or guarantee employment with the City of Fairfield.

Any safety-sensitive employee who admits to a drug and/or alcohol use disorder will immediately be removed from their safety-sensitive function and will not be allowed to perform such function until successful completion of a prescribed rehabilitation program.

9. Prescription Drug Use
The appropriate use of legally prescribed drugs and non-prescription medications is not prohibited.

However, the use of any substance which carries a warning label that indicates that mental functioning, motor skills, or judgment may be adversely affected must be reported to a City of Fairfield supervisor or the City of Fairfield’s Human Resources Department. Medical advice should be sought, as appropriate, while taking such medication and before performing safetysensitive duties. The employee shall be required to provide a written release statement from their doctor or pharmacist indicating that the employe can perform their safety-sensitive functions.

TO: Mayor and Council
FROM: David Gassaway, City Manager
SUBJECT: Resolution 2025-189 PW Energy Conservation Project – Phase 1 Project Budget Adjustment
Authorizing an Update to the Fiscal Year 2025-2026 Budget for the Energy Conservation Project – Phase 1 Project
Funding Source: $287,400; Intergovernmental Services Fund Contact: Marisa Cumpian, (707) 428-7494

RECOMMENDED ACTION
Adopt resolution.

STATEMENT OF ISSUE
The City of Fairfield has undertaken a comprehensive energy efficiency initiative (Project) in partnership with Willdan Energy Solutions (Willdan). The total cost of the energy savings performance contract with Willdan is expected to total $29,998,064. The City will fund $8.6 million of the costs with available City funds and will finance the remainder of the improvements.

The City has opted to not finance project contingency costs estimated at $1,581,723.

DISCUSSION
On December 3, 2024, the City Council adopted Resolution No. 2024-279, which authorized the City Manager to enter into an energy savings performance contract with Willdan for implementation of the Energy Conservation Project - Phase 1. The Project includes solar installations, lighting retrofits, Heating, Ventilation, and Air Conditioning (HVAC) upgrades, and other conservation measures across multiple City facilities.

Since the commencement of the Project, two change orders have been authorized. The first encompassed to asbestos testing and remediation, and the second addresses modifications to the HVAC ducting and lighting components. Additionally, several miscellaneous expenses have

Page 438 of 1141 ends

been incurred related to the temporary relocation of City staff during energy conservation upgrades to the City Hall.

The total cost of these changes are $287,400. A budget adjustment in the amount of $287,400 from the Intergovernmental Services is required.

FINANCIAL IMPACT
The Project was approved for an increase in appropriations of $31,579,787 to the Public Buildings Capital Fund (Fund 254) for fiscal year (FY) 2024-2025.This appropriation included $8,688,308 in available funding including $2,519,000 from Bedroom Tax (Fund 165), $2,401,308 from AB1600 Government Facilities (Fund 262), $2,140,000 from Construction License (Fund 164), $1,318,000 from Civic Center Improvements (Fund 532), $310,000 from Transit (Fund 451 and 452). The balance of the base project funding will be financed. The contingency for this Project will be funded using the Intergovernmental Services Fund (Fund 551).

Staff have identified $287,400 in unanticipated work fees that need to be completed in support of the Project that was not budgeted for in the FY 2025-2026 approved budget. An increase in appropriations for the additional costs for the Project will require a budget adjustment of $287,400 from the Intergovernmental Services Fund to the Public Buildings Fund. The revised appropriation constitutes an update to the FY 2025-2026 budget approved pursuant to Resolution No. 2025-103. The overall Project budget supports the additional expenses, and staff anticipate reconciling the Project at the conclusion and reimbursing the Intergovernmental Services Fund.

RECITALS
A. RESOLUTION NO. PC 2023-01 - Master Planned Unit Development Application PUD2022-001. An application for a Master Planned Unit Development Application (PUD2022-001) for a proposed Master Planned Unit Development Permit for Planning Area 1 of the Fairfield Train Station Specific Plan, along with related applications for Development Review - Community Design Plan (DR2022-003), and Environmental Review - Mitigation Monitoring (ER2022-001) (collectively Development Project) was properly filed with the Community Development Department on January 18, 2022 in accordance with the rules and regulations governing the official filing of such applications.

I. On January 11, 2023, the Planning Commission held a duly noticed public hearing and adopted City of Fairfield Planning Commission Resolution PC2023-0l, a Resolution of the Fairfield Planning Commission Approving a Master Planned Unit Development Permit (PUD2022-001) (Master PUD) for "Planning Area l" of the Fairfield Train Station Specific Plan and Development Review (DR2022-003) for a Community Design Plan for an Approximately 13 I-Acre Site at the Northwest Corner of Cement Hill Road and Peabody Road (APNS: 0166- 110-150;-l 90;-280;-200;-2 l 0;-130;-3 l 0;-230;-300;-120;-240;-250;-410;-260;-1270;-390;-l 00; - 140). The approximate 131-acre site is referred to below as the MPUD Property.

3. In approving RESOLUTION NO. PC2023-0l, the Planning Commission adopted several findings in support of the Master PUD Permit. It found that the Master PUD Permit is consistent with the General Plan goals, objectives and policies. It also found that the Master PUD Permit is consistent with Specific Plan goals, policies, standards and design criteria.

In addition, it found that the Master PUD Permit is consistent with the Train Station Specific Plan PUD Overlay Zone.

4. In approving RESOLUTION NO. PC2023-0l, the Planning Commission found that an Environmental Impact Report (EIR) and Mitigation Monitoring and Reporting Program were previously adopted for the Train Station Specific Plan, which includes all land covered by the Master PUD Permit. Any potentially significant impacts of the Development Project are identified in the EIR, and compliance with mitigations from the EIR is a requirement of the Master PUD Permit, as outlined in Section B of the Permit. It also found that any potentially significant negative impacts on environmental quality and natural resources have been properly mitigated. For this reason, the Master PUD Permit complies with the California Environmental Quality Act (CEQA). An Environmental Impact Report (EIR) and Mitigation Monitoring and Reporting Program were previously adopted for the Train Station Specific Plan, which includes all land subject to this Development Review request. The Development Project is conditioned to comply with a Master Planned Unit Development Permit for Planning Area 1 of the Train Station Specific Plan, the terms of which require the Master PUD Permit to comply with all applicable mitigation measures in the EIR.

B. RESOLUTION NO. PC2023-02 - TENTATIVE SUBDIVISION MAP (TS2021-005) AND DEVELOPMENT REVIEW (DR2021-020). On January 25, 2023, the Fairfield Planning Commission held a duly noticed public hearing to consider the development application for Tentative Subdivision Map (TS2021-005) and Development Review (DR2021- 020) to subdivide a 25.80-acre site off Peabody Road (APNs: 0166-110-120 and 0166-110-410) into 123 lots for development of 346 townhomes (DR 2021-020) (referred to below, collectively, as the Developer Project). The Planning Commission considered the City staff presentation, the substantial factual information regarding the proposed Developer Project in staff reports, and the oral presentations before the Planning Commission, and the Planning Commission considered all public testimony and information presented during the public hearing regarding DR2021-020. The Planning Commission approved Resolution No. PC2023-02, Resolution of the Fairfield Planning Commission Granting Tentative Subdivision Map (TS202 l-005) and Development Review (DR2021-020) Approval to Subdivision of a± 25.80 Acre Site off Peabody Road (APNS: 0166- 110-120 and O 166-110-410) into 123 lots for development of 346 townhome units and associate site improvements.

I. The Planning Commission adopted several findings in support of TS2021- 005. Specifically, it found that the proposed subdivision, together with the provision for its design and improvement, is consistent with the City's General Plan in that the General Plan designates the area for Train Station Specific Plan Area 1 (TSSP-PAI) development. It also found that the site is physically suitable for the type and proposed density of development and, with proper development techniques, may be developed into its intended use; the design of the subdivision or proposed improvements are not likely to cause substantial environmental damage, and will not substantially and avoidably injure fish or wildlife of their habitat; the design of the subdivision or the type of improvements is not likely to cause serious public health problems in that the 11245-014413 ! 16997vl0.doc -2-

Page 447 of 1141 ends

community water and sewer systems are available to the site. The Planning Commission further found that the design of the subdivision or the type of improvements will not conflict with easement acquired by the public for access through, or use of the property within the proposed subdivision, in that there are not access easements for use by the public at large existing on the subject site and that the discharge of waste from the proposed subdivision into the community sewer serving said proposed subdivision will not result in or add to a violation of the waste discharge requirements applicable to said sewer system which were prescribed by the California Regional Water Quality Control Board, San Francisco Bay Region, in that the existing Fairfield Suisun Sewer District treatment plant has adequate capacity.

2. The Planning Commission also adopted several findings in support of DR2021-020. Specifically, it found that DR2021-020 is consistent with the General Plan and Zoning Ordinance, and any applicable Area wide or Specific Plan. It also found that the exterior design and appearance of said Developer will not cause the nature of the neighborhood to economically, physically, or visually decline; DR202 l-020 is of high quality design consistent with applicable design policies and standards of the City; and any potentially significant negative impacts to environmental quality and natural resources have been properly mitigated and DR202 l020 complies with CEQA.

3. The Planning Commission adopted RESOLUTION PC2023-02, subject to conditions contained in EXHIBIT A to said Resolution.

C. RESOLUTION NO. PC2024-01 (DR2024-001). On March 27, 2024, the Planning Commission held a duly noticed public hearing and adopted City of Fairfield Planning Commission Resolution PC2024-0l, a Resolution of the Fairfield Planning Commission Granting Development Review (DR2024-001) Approval for On-Site Improvement Revisions for 346-Unit Aviatrix Project Located on a ±25.80 Acre Site Off Peabody Road (APNS: 0166-110-120 and 0166-110-410) into 123 lots for development of 346 townhome units and associate site improvements on the Development. The revisions involved reconfiguring certain on-site drive aisles and building locations to support the Development's construction sequencing and enable the separate development of APN: 0166-110-120 from APN: 0166-110-410. The Planning Commission considered the City staff presentation, the substantial factual information regarding the proposed Modified Developer Project (defined below) in staff reports, and the oral presentations before the Planning Commission, and the Planning Commission considered all public testimony and information presented during the public hearing regarding DR2024-001.

Republic Urban Properties (Developer) is the developer ofDR2021-020 as modified by DR2024- 001 (referred to as the Modified Developer Project).

I. The Planning Commission adopted several findings in support of DR2024- 001. Specifically, it found that the Modified Developer Project is consistent with the City's General Plan and Zoning Ordinance. It also found that the proposed project is consistent with the TSSP-PAI General Plan land use designation and the TS-PD Zoning classification. Furthermore, the Modified Developer Project is compatible with multiple General Plan objectives and policies, including the objectives and policies described below: (i) Policy HO 1.1: Encourage multifamily housing at appropriate locations and densities, focusing where possible such new housing near employment, transportation, services, and recreational amenities; (ii) Objective LU 8: Develop and maintain a pattern of residential land uses which provides for a variety and balance of densities 11245-0144\3 I I 6997vl0.doc -3-

Page 448 of 1141 ends

and opportunities for a mixture of different dwelling and tenure types. (See Policy HO 1. I); (iii) Objective LU 11: Provide multi-family ownership and rental units in a variety of cost ranges dispersed throughout the City; (iv) Policy LU 11.1: Encourage the development of a wide variety of higher density multi-family residential uses. (See Policy HO 1.3); (v) Policy LU 11.2: Multifamily residential land uses shall be developed with a balance of open space, landscaping and recreational amenities and shall be accessible to commercial and recreational areas, and public transportation facilities. (See Objective LU 6); (vi) Policy OS 11.1: Secure public access to open space to the maximum extent feasible; (vii) Policy OS 11.2: Promote trail systems through the open spaces, and pedestrian/bicycle links throughout the City, per the adopted Master Trails Plan and the Circulation Element Bicycle Routes Map. (See Objective Cl 9, Policies Cl 9.1 and Cl 9.2, and Program Cl 9.2 A); (viii) Policy OS 11.3: Require all development projects to incorporate recreation and trails elements into project design; (ix) Policy OS 11.4: Where appropriate, projects should provide access to trail heads located on adjacent public or nonprofit-owned open space lands; (x) Objective PF 2: New development shall pay such fees and taxes as necessary to meet all identified costs associated with that development; (xi) Policy PF 2.1: New development shall be responsible for the public costs attached to each development project, which include, but are not limited to, the acquisition of permanent open space, the provision ofadequate school facilities, and the provision of streets, street lighting, sidewalks, landscaping, storm drains, and other infrastructure needs; (xii) Policy PF 2.2: New development shall be responsible for paying a . financial contribution to mitigate the effect of the development on the provision of such public services as police and fire protection, public education, water, and sewer; (xiii) Policy UD 3.3:

Require new development to respect the scale and character of nearby structures and minimize or mitigate abrupt and excessive differences; and (xiv) Objective UD 4: Ensure high standards of quality in development.

2. The Planning Commission also adopted several findings in support of DR2024-00 I. Specifically, it found that DR2024-00 I will not cause the nature of the neighborhood to economically, physically, or visually decline. The Modified Developer Project will be developed to meet specific Zoning Ordinance development requirements and the City's Design & Development Guidelines. City standard conditions and special conditions of approval have been placed on the Modified Developer Project to ensure that the site improvements, landscaping, and lighting are compatible with developments in the vicinity of the subject site and greater surrounding area. The Modified Developer Project's design and conditions, including conditions for stormwater quality treatment enhancements, landscaping, public access easements, and emergency vehicle access. Furthermore, previously approved development entitlements for the project's architecture ensure the residential buildings are designed consistent with the TSSP Design Guidelines policies and the PAI MPUD Permit.

3. The Planning Commission also found that the Modified Developer Project is of high quality design consistent with applicable design policies and standards of the City.

Page 456 of 1141 ends

and related improvements required for the Street A improvements; (iii) an approximate 18,941 square foot area in fee from APN 0 166-110-410 more particularly described on EXHIBIT A-2 and depicted on EXHIBIT B-2 for proposed public street and related improvements in connection with Peabody Road; (iv) and an approximate 29,898 square foot area in fee from APN 0166-110-410 more particularly described on EXHIBIT A-3 and depicted on EXHIBIT B-3 for proposed public street and related improvements in connection with Peabody Road. Drafts of EXHIBIT A, EXHIBIT B, EXHIBIT A-1, EXHIBIT B-1, EXHIBIT A-2, EXHIBIT B-2, EXHIBIT A-3, and EXHIBIT B-3 are attached hereto and incorporated herein by this reference. Developer will cause its surveyor to finalize the legal descriptions and sign them after said final legal descriptions and plat maps are reviewed and approved by the City. The Off-Site Property is required for public street purposes, including public access purposes, sidewalk, public utility, drainage, public service easement purposes, traffic signal purposes, and all uses necessary or convenient thereto. The City maintains the discretion to review and approve any conveyance documents that grant to the City the Off-site Property interests prior to recordation of such documents.

E. Pursuant to California Government Code Section 66462.5, when a condition of a subdivision map approval or a development agreement requires the installation or construction of improvements on Off-site Property not owned or controlled by a developer, and title cannot be obtained by negotiated purchase, a city is required to commence proceedings to acquire Off-site Property by eminent domain or such conditions for the Off-site improvements will be waived.

Pursuant to said Section 66462.5, a city and a developer may enter into an agreement to allocate the costs and responsibilities for acquisition of such Off-site Property.

F. Developer has requested that City acquire the Off-site Property pursuant to Government Code Section 66462.5.

G. Developer has provided credible evidence that Developer has made a good faith effort to acquire the Off-site Property to construct the Subject Off-site Improvements but has been unable to do so by negotiated purchase.

H. City is authorized to acquire property by eminent domain for public use, namely for public street purposes, drainage, public utility purposes, and all uses necessary or convenient thereto, pursuant to Section 19 of Article 1 of the California Constitution, Government Code Sections 37350, 37350.5, 37351, 37353, 40401, 40404, and 66462.5, Code of Civil Procedure Section 1230.010 et seq., and other provisions of law. Code of Civil Procedure, Section 1240.010 provides that "[t]he power of eminent domain may be exercised to acquire property only for a public use. Where the Legislature provides by statute that a use, purpose, object, or function is one for which the power of eminent domain may be exercised, such action is deemed to be a declaration by the Legislature that such use, purpose, object, or function is a public use." Government Code Section 66462.5(c) authorizes the City and the developer of a project for which the construction of off-site improvements are required to enter into an agreement requiring the developer to complete the improvements pursuant to Government Code Section 66462 at such time as the City acquires an interest in the land that will permit such improvements to be constructed. Government Code Section 66462.5(a) provides that a city or county may "acquire by negotiation or commence eminent domain proceedings pursuant to Title 7 (commencing with Section 1230.010) of Part 3 of the Code of Civil Procedure to acquire an interest in the land which 11245-0144\J I 16997vl0.doc -12-

Page 457 of 1141 ends

will permit the improvements to be made, including proceedings for immediate possession of the property under Article (commencing with Section 1255.410) of Chapter 6 of that title." I. City must comply with the Relocation Assistance Act, Government Code Section 7260 et seq., and the Eminent Domain Law (Code of Civil Procedure Section 1230.010 et seq.), and their implementing regulations, in acquiring property for public improvements ("Public Land Acquisition Statutes").

J. To facilitate the satisfaction of the condition of approval, City and Developer now mutually desire to enter into this Agreement under Government Code Section 66462.5 concerning acquisition of the Off-site Property for the proposed construction of the Subject Off-site Improvements and to allocate responsibility between the respective Parties.

4. Limitations on City's Ability to Acquire Off-site Property; Time Waiver.
a. The Parties hereto recognize that if the City Council, in its discretion, adopts any resolution(s) of necessity and authorizes the filing of eminent domain proceeding(s) in connection with the Off-site Property, the City may not be able to obtain title to the Off-site Property within the time set forth in Government Code Section 66462.5 and in recognition of this potential circumstance the Parties hereby waive the time requirements for action by City as set forth in Government Code Section 66462.5. b. The timing of the City's acquisition of the portion of the Off-site Property for Developer's construction of the public street, sidewalk and related improvements along the north side of Street A will not delay the development of "Phase I" of the Developer Project. Additionally, the City's acquisition of the portion of the Off-site Property for Developer's construction of the public street, sidewalk and related improvements along the north side of Street A shall not delay construction of the Street A roadway altogether.

5. Deposit of Costs. Concurrently with the execution of this Agreement, Developer will deliver to City the sum of$50,000 (Fifty Thousand Dollars). City agrees to deposit said sum in a separate City account ("Separate Fund") and to use the principal sum, and any interest earned thereon, in furtherance of satisfying the costs specified in this Agreement. a. City will, on a monthly basis, or as often as City deems necessary, provide Developer with an accounting of disbursements from the Separate Fund established pursuant to this Section. In the event disbursements reduce the balance of the fund to $5,000 (Five Thousand Dollars) or less, Developer, within five (5) business days following a written request by City, will deliver to City such additional monies as are necessary to maintain the balance in the separate fund at $20,000 (Twenty Thousand Dollars).
b. Developer agrees to deliver to City, promptly upon demand by City, the entire amount City determines is required by the Eminent Domain Law ("Deposit Amount"), which amount City will deposit with the State Condemnation Fund under Code of Civil Procedure Section 1255.010 et seq. if City and Developer agree that City should seek prejudgment possession of the Off-site Property. The Deposit Amount may be paid from the Separate Fund, subject to the terms of 5.a above. If during the course of any eminent domain proceeding(s), City's expert valuation witness or the court determines that the fair market value of the Off-site Property is higher than the Deposit Amount, Developer will deliver this additional amount to City for deposit in the Separate Fund upon five (5) business days following a written request by City or as ordered by any court of competent jurisdiction. City will promptly deposit this additional amount with the State Condemnation Fund or as ordered by the court.
c. If for any reason Developer fails to maintain the Separate Fund balance referenced in this Section, or fails to provide the monies as required herein, City may take the following action(s):

6. Developer Acquisition of Off-site Property. If Developer should independently acquire all or any portion of the Off-site Property by negotiated purchase after an eminent domain proceeding is filed by City, Developer will immediately notify City of the acquisition. In such case, City will move to abandon all or any unnecessary part of the eminent domain proceeding(s) relating to any portion of the Off-site Property acquired by Developer by negotiation when title to said property is vested in Developer.

AGENDA REPORT
DATE: September 16, 2025
TO: Mayor and Council
FROM: David Gassaway, City Manager
SUBJECT: Ordinance 2025-08 CD to Redesignate Project Area in the Villages of Fairfield Amending Chapter 25, Article I, Section 25.12.3 of the Fairfield City Code (Also Known as the City of Fairfield Zoning Map) to Rezone the Lago Vista Site, a Vacant 37.3-Acre North of Air Base Parkway, East of Stanton Correction Facility, West of Mccoy Basin (Assessor’s Parcel Numbers 0170-050-540 and 0170-050-550 or Portions Thereof) from Residential Medium, Industrial & Business Park and Open Space Conservation to Residential Low-Medium and Residential High Funding Source: N/A
Contact: Meily M Sheehan, (707) 428-7474
Consultant Contact: Damian Arnaiz, (714) 406-0562

RECOMMENDED ACTION
Provide second reading and adopt Ordinance 2025-08.

STATEMENT OF ISSUE
Rob White of Rancho Tolenas Corporation requests a Zone Change from Residential Medium (RM), Industrial & Business Park (IBP) and Open Space Conservation (OSC) to Residential LowMedium (RLM) and Residential High (RH) to support the development of 375 residential units (151 single-family units, 224 multi-family units) east of High Line Drive and Golden Way (APNS:
0170-050-540 and 0170-050-550 or portions thereof).

DISCUSSION
On August 13, 2025, the Planning Commission adopted Resolution PC2025-5 approving Development Review (DR2025-001), Development Review (DR2025-002), and Tentative Subdivision Map (TS2025-001) for the subdivision of two legal lots to three numbered Lots and eight lettered lots to allow the development of 151 single-family residential units and 224 multifamily residential units and supporting parklets, open space, and trail. Additionally, the Planning Commission approved Rancho Tolenas Corporation's update to the Villages at Fairfield

Page 489 of 1141 ends

Master Plan’s Design Guidelines. The project site is currently undeveloped. The Planning Commission recommended City Council approval of the proposed General Plan Amendment and Zone Change and Environmental Impact Report (EIR) Addendums.

On September 2, 2025, the City Council passed Resolution No. 2025-174 approving the addendum to the Villages at Fairfield and Hawthorne Mill EIRs and approving the General Plan Amendment to redesignate the Project site from RM to RH.

The proposed Zone Change will adjust the land use designations and zoning classifications to accommodate the Project’s residential densities, specifically zoning for RH for the multifamily community and maintaining RLM for the single-family neighborhoods. The Zone Change will remove the current IBP and OSC designations and replace them with RLM and RH designations.

A detailed description of the project can be found in the Planning Commission Staff Report included as Attachment 8. The project is consistent with the following General Plan objectives:
 General Plan Policy LU-2: Promote a variety of housing types to serve the diverse needs of the community and stimulate investment.
 General Plan Policy LU-16: Ensure that new development is designed to optimize Fairfield’s Linear Park, making the park a central feature that enhances quality of life, connectivity, and recreational opportunities for residents.  General Plan Policy TP-1: Ensure that future land uses are compatible with the continued operation and military readiness of Travis Air Force Base, as well as the health and safety of Fairfield residents in its vicinity.
 Objective OSCR-3.2: Open Space Management. Manage natural open space lands and embrace public access, where feasible, in a manner consistent with wildlife protection, habitat preservation, and fire prevention.
 General Plan Objective OSCR-3.5: Protection of Biological Resources with New Development.

Environmental Review: An Addendum to previously certified EIRs has been prepared for the Project, as allowed under the California Environmental Quality Act. Since all potential environmental impacts were already studied in earlier EIRs for the Villages at Fairfield and Hawthorne Mill projects, and no new significant impacts have been identified, a new EIR is not required. The Addendum is attached as Exhibit A of Resolution 2025-174.

FINANCIAL IMPACT
N/A

PUBLIC CONTACT/ADVISORY BODY RECOMMENDATION
The Planning Division published a public hearing notice in the Daily Republic newspaper on August 10, 2025, and mailed it to all property owners within 500 feet of the project for the City Council meeting on September 2, 2025. The council held a public hearing for the item on September 2, 2025, and moved to approve Resolution 2025-174 and introduce Ordinance 2025-

Page 490 of 1141 ends

08 for a first reading. As of the writing of this staff report, the staff has not received any subsequent correspondence on the project.

ALTERNATIVE ACTION
Council may choose not to adopt the proposed ordinance. In this case, the Zone Change would not occur, and the Lago Vista residential project would not be able to proceed.

COORDINATED WITH
Fire Department, Public Works Department, Solano County Airport Land Use Commission, Fairfield-Suisun Sewer District, Solano Irrigation District, Solano County Water Agency, Solano County, and Pacific Gas & Electric Company.

CITY OF FAIRFIELD
ORDINANCE NO. 2025-08
AMENDING CHAPTER 25, ARTICLE I, SECTION 25.12.3 OF THE FAIRFIELD CITY CODE (ALSO KNOWN AS THE CITY OF FAIRFIELD ZONING MAP) TO REZONE THE LAGO VISTA SITE, A VACANT 37.3-ACRE NORTH OF AIR BASE PARKWAY, EAST OF STANTON CORRECTION FACILITY, WEST OF MCCOY BASIN (ASSESSOR’S PARCEL NUMBERS 0170- 050-540 AND 0170-050-550 OR PORTIONS THEREOF) FROM RESIDENTIAL MEDIUM,

INDUSTRIAL & BUSINESS PARK AND OPEN SPACE CONSERVATION TO RESIDENTIAL

LOW-MEDIUM AND RESIDENTIAL HIGH
THE CITY COUNCIL OF THE CITY OF FAIRFIELD DOES ORDAIN AS FOLLOWS:

SECTION 1. Chapter 25 is hereby modified to the Fairfield City Code, also known as the City of Fairfield Zoning Map, is hereby amended as shown on Sectional Zoning Map (ZC2025-001) attached hereto as Exhibit A.

Pursuant to Section 25.47.5 Findings of the Fairfield Zoning Ordinance, the City Council finds as follows:

A. The proposed Zoning Map Amendment is consistent with the goals, policies and actions of the General Plan. The proposed General Plan amendment would redesignate a portion of the Project site from Residential-Low Medium density to Residential-High density to accommodate the Project's target densities. The proposed Zone Change will remove the current Industrial Business Park (IBP) and Open Space-Conservation (OSC) designations and replace them with Residential Low Medium (RLM) and Residential High (RH) designations. The proposed residential designations will allow for both a singlefamily and a multifamily development that complements uses in the vicinity. As proposed and conditioned, the project aligns with the City's General Plan objectives, promoting orderly growth, a variety of housing types, pedestrian-oriented connections, and infrastructure improvements that blend into the area’s natural setting while adhering to fire protection standards and including traffic calming and safe routes to schools initiatives. Furthermore, the Project is consistent with the following General Plan Objectives and Policies: Policy LU-2: Promote a variety of housing types to serve the diverse needs of the community and stimulate investment. Objective LU-2.2: Variety of Housing Types. Promote the development of a greater variety of housing types and sizes in existing neighborhoods and new focus areas, including single-unit homes on small lots, accessory dwelling units, alley-facing units, town-homes, lofts, live-work spaces, duplexes, triplexes, fourplexes, bungalow courts, senior housing, and student housing to meet the needs of future demographics and changing household sizes. Objective LU-6.5:

Environmental Constraints in Site Design. Ensure that development is reflective of the area’s environmental constraints—including localized presence of geologic faults, slopes

Page 492 of 1141 ends

ORD. NO. 2025-08

Page 2 ends

and unstable soils, fire risks, flood hazards—as well as natural resources. Consider incorporating geologic faults and Alquist Priolo Zones as part of the open space or trails system. Objective LU-7.6: Pedestrian-Oriented Connections. Provide a network of safe, well-maintained, interconnected streets, paseos, pathways, and bicycle routes onsite that facilitates travel through the site for pedestrians, cyclists, and other non-motorized modes of transportation. Link these connections to amenities such as commercial corridors, parks, schools, and public transportation hubs. Policy LU-16: Ensure that new development is designed to optimize Fairfield’s Linear Park, making the park a central feature that enhances quality of life, connectivity, and recreational opportunities for residents. Objective LU-20.6: Fire Protection. Require all development to comply with standards established by the City’s Fire Marshal to ensure fire protection, emergency vehicle accessibility, defensible space, fire-resistant construction, water supply, premises identification, and similar protective purposes. Site plans are required to identify evacuation routes acceptable to the City’s Fire Chief and Traffic Engineer. Policy TP-1:

Ensure that future land uses are compatible with the continued operation and military readiness of TAFB, as well as the health and safety of Fairfield residents in its vicinity.

Policy CIR-3: Manage the City’s transportation system to minimize congestion, improve the flow of traffic, improve air quality, and reduce vehicle miles traveled. Objective CIR7.15: Traffic Calming. Require new development implement traffic calming for new development to improve livability. The traffic calming shall consider only passive or horizontal types like roundabouts, bulbouts, and other similar tools used for best practices.

Prohibit vertical traffic calming to support adequate emergency response times for health and safety. Objective PFS-7.7: New Development. Require all new development located within City limits connect to the public water system, construct all potable water lines serving such development, and provide adequate funding for the development’s use of all potable water infrastructure and facilities. Objective PFS-8.4: New Development. Require that all new developments located within City limits connect to the public wastewater collection system, construct all sanitary sewer lines serving such development (including oversizing of sewers if requested by the Fairfield-Suisun Sewer District or the City, and provide adequate funding for the development’s use of all wastewater infrastructure and facilities. The costs of oversizing shall be borne by the beneficiary of the oversizing.

Objective PFS-10.2: Collection and Recycling Services. Ensure the continued provision of adequate solid waste collection and recycling services in Fairfield. Implement programs within the Source Reduction and Recycling Element (not a General Plan element) which promote source reduction, recycling, and composting as ways of reducing waste and increasing landfill capacity. Objective OSCR-3.2: Open Space Management. Manage natural open space lands and embrace public access, where feasible, in a manner consistent with wildlife protection, habitat preservation, and fire prevention. Objective OSCR-3.5: Protection of Biological Resources with New Development. Objective OSCR6.12: Other Needed Parks. Prioritize the development of other community and neighborhood park facilities to ensure that adequate open space is available to serve the needs of new residents with each phase of residential construction. Explore potential locations for a new community park in Fairfield as part of the next update of the Parks, Recreation, and Open Space Master Plan update. Objective HS-4.2: Flood Plain

Page 493 of 1141 ends

ORD. NO. 2025-08

Page 3 ends

Regulations. Require development within flood plain areas as shown in Figure 8-5 to comply with Federal Emergency Management Agency (FEMA) regulations by providing adequate flood mitigation and financial protection in the event of flooding. Continue to update FEMA flood control studies based upon development and ongoing improvements.

B. The proposed amendment would not be detrimental to the public interest, health, safety, convenience, or welfare of the City. The proposed amendments would redesignate

37.3 of vacant land for 151 single-family and 224 multifamily residential units, expanding the existing Villages at the Fairfield master plan. The addition of more residential land will not jeopardize public interest, health, safety, convenience, or the welfare of the City in that the planned development will be subject to a collection of conditions of approval to ensure its safe and orderly development and operation. Future access to the site is provided via High Line Drive and Golden Way. Additionally, there are two proposed emergency vehicle access (EVA) points connecting to Portland Drive and Airbase Parkway on the north and south portions of the site, respectively.

C. The site is physically suitable (including, but not limited to access, provision of utilities, compatibility with adjoining land uses, and absence of physical constraints) for the requested zoning designations and anticipated land uses/developments. The Project site is physically suitable for residential development in that it is sited adjacent to and surrounded by residential development. Furthermore, the site has been thoroughly evaluated and found to have a topography conducive to residential development. The relatively level terrain requires minimal grading, thereby reducing the impact on the natural landscape, making it ideal for both single-family and multi-family residential units.

The site is well-served by existing infrastructure and utilities, including water, sewer, electricity, and road networks, which can support the increased demand generated by the new development, ensuring that residents will have access to essential services.

D. The proposed amendment is in compliance with the provisions of the California Environmental Quality Act (CEQA). An Addendum to the previously certified Villages at Fairfield Environmental Impact Report (EIR) and Hawthorne Mill EIR has been prepared for the Project, as permitted under CEQA. The Addendum determined that all potential environmental impacts associated with the Project were previously analyzed in the certified EIRs. No new significant impacts have been identified; therefore, no further environmental review is required.

SECTION 2. This Ordinance shall be effective 30 days following its adoption by the City Council. A summary of this Ordinance shall, within 15 days after passage, be published in accordance with Section 36933 of the Government Code of the State of California with the names of the City Councilmembers voting for and against it.

August 2025

1. 0 BACKGROUND
The Lago Vista project ( herein, " Project" or " proposed Project") would be removed from the Hawthorne Mill project and added into the Villages at Fairfield project. The evaluation of the proposed Project is therefore subject to both underlying approvals and their respective CEQA certification. See Exhibit X, Project Location and Boundary. This 2025 Addendum has been prepared pursuant to the CEQA Guidelines Section 15164 for the Project, as described below.

The Hawthorne Mill project Environmental Impact Report (EIR) was certified in November 2015 ( City Council Resolution No. 2015- 246). The Hawthorne Mill EIR analyzed the development of 172 residential units on Hawthorne Mill West ( location ofthe proposed Project) with 825 units planned for Hawthorne Mill East. The approvals proposed for the Hawthorne Mill project and analyzed in the Hawthorne Mill EIR included a General Plan Amendment ( GPA 2014- 4) changing the land use designations for the Project site from Industrial & Business Park IBP) to Residential Low -Medium ( RLM) and Open Space Conservation ( OSC) for the remainder of the site. Also considered and not finalized were a corresponding Zoning Ordinance Amendment, Tentative Subdivision Maps, a Development Review and Community Design Plan, and a Development Agreement.

The Villages at Fairfield EIR was certified in 2005 ( City Council Resolution No. 2005- 296), and subsequently modified in 2011 and 2015, in consideration ofthe following actions:

On September 20, 2005, the Fairfield City Council adopted Resolution No. 2005- 296 certifying an EIR for the Villages at Fairfield ( the " VAF EIR"). As also recommended by the Planning Commission, the City Council approved the following actions:
o General Plan Amendment ( Resolution No. 2005- 297);
o Zoning Code Amendment ( Ordinance 2005- 15);
o Tentative Subdivision Map ( Resolution 2005- 33); and o Development Agreement for the Villages of Fairfield (Ordinance No. 2005- 14).

On May 3, 2011, the City adopted an Addendum to the EIR in conjunction with its approval of the Amended and Restated Development Agreement (" First Amended DA," Ordinance 2011- 09).

On August 10, 2015, the City adopted an Addendum to the EIR in conjunction with its approval of the Second Amended and Restated Development Agreement (" Second Amended DA," Ordinance 2015- 19). The 2011 and 2015 Addenda analyzed shifts in residential densities and minor land use revisions, all in substantial conformance with the previously approved tentative tract maps ( General Plan Amendment, Resolution 2015- 245).
0 On January 15, 2019, the City adopted an Addendum to the EIR ( Resolution No. 2019-

Page 499 of 1141 ends

14) in conjunction with its approval of the First Amendment to Second Amended and Restated Development Agreement (" First Amendment to Second Amended DA," Ordinance 2019- 01), which adjusted the timing of certain infrastructure improvements described in Exhibit H of the Second Amended and Restated DA.

2. 0 PROJECT MODIFICATIONS
Rancho Tolenas Corporation, a subsidiary of Lewis Group of Companies ( herein, " Project Applicant") has filed applications with the City of Fairfield ( herein, " City") for the Villages at Fairfield (" VAF") Lago Vista project ( herein, " Project" or " Lago Vista"). VAF encompasses approximately 431 acres in the northeastern area ofthe City of Fairfield, located to the south of Cement Hill and the Putah South Canal, north ofAir Base Parkway, east ofthe Woodlake Estates residential development, and west of the Gold Ridge residential development. VAF is divided into five separate development projects, including four residential projects: Village I, Village II, Village III, and Village IV, and the Laurel Creek Plaza commercial center. The Project would add an additional development area adjacent to Village II referenced as Lago Vista. The Project requires a reallocation of 295 residential units from Villages I and II, which have been developed with fewer units ( 806) than previously analyzed and approved ( 1, 101), and an additional 80 residential units for a total of 375 units within Lago Vista. The original VAF approval included 2, 327 total residential units, and the VAF EIR originally analyzed 1, 101 units for Villages I and II and an additional 1, 226 units for Villages III and IV. The Hawthorne Mill West project planned to develop 172 residential units on the Lago Vista site. The Project would not amend VAF total units but reallocate the additional 80 units to Lago Vista from the previously analyzed Hawthorne Mill West units that have not yet been developed on the Lago Vista site.

Moreover, as discussed in Transportation below, the traffic generated from development ofthe 375 units is less than generated from the 1, 101 units considered in the VAF EIR for Villages I and II. The impacts for Lago Vista that vary based on intensity of unit count are determined by traffic trips for impacts to transportation, air quality, greenhouse gas, energy and noise. All of these impacts will be less significant since the traffic impacts will be less. The impacts to land are the same as considered in the Hawthorne Mill EIR. The other unit -based impacts such as utilities, recreation and population and housing are addressed by fees, which the Lago Vista will pay more according to having more units contributing. As such, the impacts will be the same or less for Lago Vista compared to what was studied in the VAF EIR.

The Project is comprised of 154. 7 acres and planned for 151 single family units designated as Residential Low -Medium, 224 multifamily units designated as Residential High, and 42.2 acres ofPublic Facility and 75. 2 acres ofOpen Space Conservation. The Project accommodates public and private improvements to support the planned development. See Exhibit X, Lago Vista Illustrative. The Project requires the following modifications and as further described herein:

General Plan Amendment
Zone Change
Vesting Tentative Subdivision/ Condominium Mapl
Development Agreement ( DA) Second Amendment to the Second Amended DA The proposed Vesting Tentative Subdivision Map includes a Vesting Tentative Map for Condominium Purposes for Lot 3, the proposed multifamily parcel.
2

Page 500 of 1141 ends

Development Review and Community Design Plan, Amended
Land Use and Zoning
The Project requires a General Plan Amendment to redesignate approximately 15. 8 acres ofthe site as Residential High, reducing the amount of Residential Low -Medium designated area by

9.4 acres and reducing the Open Space Conservation designated area by 6. 3 acres. See Exhibit X, General Plan Amendment.

The Project requires a Zone Change to redesignate 154. 7 acres comprised of Industrial Business Park, Residential Medium, Public Facility and Open Space Conservation to 21. 5 acres of Residential Low -Medium, 15. 8 acres of Residential High, 42.2 acres of public facility and 75. 2 acres of Open Space Conservation. See Exhibit X, Rezone - Exhibit.

Circulation
The Project will connect to Village II via Horizon Drive. An Emergency Vehicle Access (EVA) point, providing access to Air Base Parkway is proposed in the southwest corner of Lago Vista.

The Project will also include an active transportation link from the northern edge of the residential development and connecting via a multi -use trail and associated open space to the existing Portland Drive. This active use transportation route encompasses approximately 3. 8 acres of the Residential Low -Medium and would support pedestrian and bicycle connectivity to Portland Drive that ultimately connects with the Linear Park system.

Infrastructure
Lago Vista will utilize the now -built Village II sewage infrastructure and route sewage to the west to the sewer lift station installed as part of the Villages at Fairfield infrastructure. Other utility connections will be routed to the infrastructure that has already been built or is under construction to serve Village II, with capacity to meet the demands of Lago Vista.

Drainage from the Project would be treated and detained onsite, with the discharge not to exceed 90 percent ofthe pre -project levels. Stormwater infrastructure, including a stormwater basin, would be located within the southeast corner ofthe Project site ( Lot G). This water quality basin is anticipated to be dedicated to the City and included in the existing lighting and landscaping maintenance district for on -going maintenance. Storm drain connections from the proposed single-family lots (Lot 1 to the west and a portion of Lot 2 to the north) to the Lot G water quality basin will require an easement through the proposed multifamily lot (Lot 3) for access* and maintenance. The City ( and related agencies) will also have on -going vehicularrand maintenance access rights to Lot G and the open space to the east of the Project through Lot 3.

The existing water quality basin next to Lot 3 in Village 2 would also serve the northern third of the Project.

Grading & Construction
Mass grading of the entire Project site is anticipated to commence by the end of 2025, with backbone infrastructure and site improvements commencing in 2026. The single family and multifamily lots ( Lots 1, 2, and 3) are proposed to be constructed at the same time.

Regulatory
The Hawthorne Mill Project was also analyzed in an Environmental Impact Statement under the 3

Page 501 of 1141 ends

National Environmental Policy Act (" NEPA") in conjunction with the U.S. Army Corps of Engineers' ( USACE) issuance of an individual Clean Water Act Section 404 permit (" 404 Permit") for the project. Accordingly, the original Hawthorne Mill Project was analyzed in a joint EIS/ EIR. No 404 Permit is required for the Lago Vista project, so no further review under NEPA is required. The NEPA analysis in, the Hawthorne Mill EIR/ EIS is not relevant for this Addendum, which is only required to analyze the Lago Vista project under CEQA' s subsequent review provisions.

Development Agreement
The Lago Vista Project will also involve amendments to the Development Agreement, including to add the Lago Vista site to the Project area, modify the parkland dedication requirements, and accelerate the timeline of certain roadway improvements.

3. 0 DETERMINATION TO PREPARE AN ADDENDUM
Pursuant to Section 15164 ofthe CEQA Guidelines, a lead agency shall prepare an Addendum to a previously certified EIR if changes or additions are necessary and when none of the conditions described in Section 15162 ofthe CEQA Guidelines ( which calls for the preparation of a Subsequent EIR) have occurred. Section 15162 requires preparation of a Subsequent EIR when:
1) Substantial changes are proposed in the project which will require major revisions of the previous EIR or Negative Declaration due to the involvement of new significant environmental effects or a substantial increase in the severity of previously identified significant effects;
2) Substantial changes occur with respect to the circumstances under which the project is undertaken which will require major revisions to the previous EIR or Negative Declaration due to the involvement of new significant environmental effects or a substantial increase in the severity of previously identified significant effects; or 3) New information of substantial importance, which was not known and could not have been known with the exercise of reasonable diligence at the time the previous EIR was certified as complete or the Negative Declaration was adopted, shows any of the following:

A) The project will have one or more significant effects not discussed in the previous EIR or Negative Declaration; Significant effects previously examined will be substantially more severe than shown in the previous EIR; B) Mitigation measures or alternatives previously found not to be feasible would in fact be feasible, and would substantially reduce one or more significant effects of the project, but the project proponents decline to adopt the mitigation measure or alternative; or
C) Mitigation measures or alternatives which are considerably different from those analyzed in the previous EIR would substantially reduce one or more significant effects on the environment, but the project proponents decline to adopt the mitigation measure or alternative."
Where none ofthe above -referenced conditions requiring the preparation of a Subsequent EIR exist, the 4

Page 502 of 1141 ends

CEQA Guidelines require a lead agency to prepare an Addendum to the previously certified EIR, including a brief explanation, supported by substantial evidence, ofthe decision to not prepare a Subsequent EIR CEQA Guidelines Sections 15162 and 15164( a)).

The " project" at issue for purposes of CEQA' s subsequent review provisions is the residential development of Lago Vista. In this case, all of the environmental impacts associated with Lago Vista have effectively already been analyzed under a certified EIR as either ( a) impacts already accounted for in the VAF EIR or b) site -specific impacts ofresidential development analyzed under the Hawthorne Mill EIR.

4. 0 MITIGATION MEASURES
All mitigation measures identified as part ofthe VAF EIR and HM EIR would continue to apply to the proposed Project, although many of the mitigation requirements would apply to future implementing developments not specifically applicable to the Project. Where applicable and appropriate, mitigation measures from the Hawthorne Mill EIR are incorporated into this Addendum, ensuring that there are no new or substantially more severe impacts associated with the modifications to the Project. A copy ofthe combined Mitigation Monitoring and Reporting Program for the Project is provided herein as Exhibit X.

5. 0 SUMMARY OF FINDINGS
The Project' s modifications to the previously approved development described above result in volume - based impacts such as traffic, air quality, roadway noise, utilities, water supply, and public services that are consistent with the those addressed by the VAF EIR. The footprint ofthe developed area remains the same or smaller than the development already analyzed in the Hawthorne Mill EIR, so all land -based impacts, such as those related to agriculture, biology, cultural, geology, hydrology, and hazards. remain the same or less significant than those analyzed in the Hawthorne Mill EIR.

Each impact area summarized below analyzes whether the proposed Project will result in new significant impacts or a substantial increase in the severity of significant impacts previously identified in the VAF EIR or Hawthorne Mill EIR, as applicable. On the basis of the evaluation below, the City determines that the potentially significant effects that could result from the proposed Lago Vista Project have been addressed in either the certified VAF EIR (and subsequent addenda) or the certified Hawthorne Mill EIR, and that none ofthe conditions for preparation of a subsequent EIR set forth in the Public Resources Code Section 21166 and CEQA Guidelines Section 15162 have been triggered. Accordingly, an Addendum to the VAF EIR and Hawthorne Mill EIR shall be prepared pursuant to CEQA Guidelines Section 15164, as set forth below2.

The Project modifications do not cause new or substantially more severe significant impacts than previously analyzed because all ofthe impacts ofthe Project have already been analyzed under either the VAF EIR or the Hawthorne Mill EIR with respect to impacts that are specific to the Project area. Therefore, this Addendum is an addendum to both the VAF EIR and the Hawthorne Mill EIR. As documented in this Addendum, ( a) the impacts ofthe Project related to Transportation, Air Quality and Greenhouse Gas, Public Facilities & Services, Population & Housing, Recreation, Utilities & Service Systems, and Energy have been sufficiently analyzed by the VAF EIR such that no major revisions to the VAF EIR are required; and b) the impacts of the Project related to Biological Resources, Aesthetics, Cultural Resources & Tribal 2 Note that the VAF EIR and previous addenda to the VAF EIR followed the organizational structure of the Peabody Walters EIR, which combined certain impact discussions into larger chapters, while the Hawthorne Mill EIR analyzed each CEQA impact area in individual chapters. For clarity, this Addendum is organized by individual impact area but references the previous VAF EIR analysis by its heading in the VAF EIR where applicable. 5

Page 503 of 1141 ends

Cultural Resources, Hydrology & Water Quality, Noise, Geology & Soils, Agriculture & Forestry Resources, Hazards & Hazardous Materials, Land Use & Planning, Mineral Resources, Population & Housing, and Wildfire, have been sufficiently analyzed by the Hawthorne Mill EIR such that no major revisions to the Hawthorne Mill EIR are required. Where applicable, mitigation measures from each previously certified EIR are referenced and incorporated into this Addendum.

A. Aesthetics
The Hawthorne Mill EIR evaluated the potential aesthetics impacts of the development of residential uses and concluded that all impacts associated with development on the Lago Vista site related to aesthetics would be less than significant with the exception of potential impacts related to light and glare that could affect day and nighttime views in the project vicinity. The Hawthorne Mill EIR analyzed residential use on the site, and the Project is proposing,residential use with similar standards and massing. As such, there are no meaningful differences between the potential aesthetic impacts ofthe Project and the previously analyzed Hawthorne Mill West project. Views ofthe proposed Project development from the surrounding area would be similar to those analyzed in the Hawthorne Mill EIR, and the site itself contains no visual resources.

To address the potential impacts of the Hawthorne Mill West project related to light and glare, the Hawthorne Mill EIR included MM AES- 2, which is incorporated into this Addendum, as adapted to the Project ( modifications in str-ikeeut and underline):

MM AES- 2: Prior to issuance ofthe first building permit for each phase ofHaulier-ne Mill East and u.,•..«h,.me Mill WestLa o Vista, the applicant shall prepare and submit an outdoor lighting plan ( which includes a photometric analysis) to the City of Fairfield that includes a footcandle map illustrating the amount of light from the project site at adjacent light- sensitive receptors. The lighting plan shall provide directional shielding for all exterior lighting; automatic shutoff or motion sensors; and include minimal levels of street lighting.

B. Air Quality & Greenhouse Gases
Since most ofthe units in the Project are being re -allocated from already approved Village I- 11 units, this Addendum considers them Village 1- 11 units for the purposes of analyzing Air Quality impacts, and the Air Quality analysis in the VAF EIR would apply ( see VAF EIR Chapter 7).

The VAF EIR concluded that the VAF project would contribute to an exceedance of Bay Area Air Quality Management District (` BAAQMD") significance thresholds for certain conventional pollutants and that this impact would be significant and unavoidable. By re- allocating Village I11 units and adding additional units to the adjoining Lago Vista site, there is no change in this conclusion. This impact will remain significant and unavoidable as in the VAF EIR, but the VAF EIR included mitigation measures to reduce air quality impacts to the extent feasible. The Project would be required to comply with all VAF EIR mitigation measures relevant and applicable to Village I-11, ensuring that any air quality impacts would be mitigated to the extent feasible and would be consistent with those analyzed in the VAF EIR. Accordingly, the air quality impacts associated with the Project would not represent new significant impacts or a substantial increase in the severity of previously identified significant impacts and would remain below the Section 15162 thresholds.

With respect to GHG impacts associated with the Project, the VAF GHG analysis would also apply. In the 2010 and 2015 Addenda to the VAF EIR, the City concluded that although the 2005 EIR did not evaluate the VAF project' s GHG emissions, the later adoption of AB 32 and BAAQMD GHG thresholds did not constitute new information requiring a subsequent or supplemental EIR since those regulatory developments did not reveal new site- specific impacts, and GHG impacts were known or knowable in 2005. As detailed in the Transportation Impact Analysis Memorandum prepared by Wood Rodgers and attached as Appendix B to this Addendum, the as -built Villages I and II plus the Project would result in substantially fewer daily trips than the trip generation for Villages I and II analyzed in the VAF EIR. Since traffic is the primary driver associated with volume -based operational impacts such as greenhouse gas emissions, and the proposed Project units can be accounted for in the VAF trip generation budget, the GHG analysis does not change. No GHG mitigation would be required under the VAF EIR. Nevertheless, as a matter of regulatory compliance, the Project is required to comply with current Title 24 energy efficiency standards, therefore, the Project units will be more energy- and GHG- efficient than the units originally analyzed in the VAF EIR. The Project units will also be solar -ready. Accordingly, the GHG impacts associated with the Project would not represent new significant impacts or a substantial increase in the severity of previously identified significant impacts and would remain below the Section 15162 thresholds.

C. Biological Resources
Potential impacts to biological resources related to development on the Project site were thoroughly analyzed in the Hawthorne Mill EIR. Existing conditions on the Lago Vista site have not materially changed since the Hawthorne Mill EIR was certified. The proposed Project development footprint has been designed to avoid potentially jurisdictional features in the areas near McCoy Basin, and, as such, will entirely avoid wetland impacts. As a result, the Project will greatly reduce impacts to biological resources compared to Hawthorne Mill West, which

Page 506 of 1141 ends

assumed fill of 0. 30 acres of wetlands, with indirect impacts to 0. 82 acres of wetlands.

Hawthorne Mill West also assumed indirectly impacted 0. 66 acres of Contra Costa Goldfields habitat, as well as direct and indirect impacts to 1. 21 acres of pappose tarplant, due to the extension of Portland Drive. The proposed Project would indirectly impact 0. 06 acres of Contra Costa goldfields and result in direct and indirect impacts to 0. 43 acres of pappose tarplant. The proposed Project would also affect approximately 759 square feet ( 0. 01 acre) of bearded popcornflower. The Hawthorne Mill EIR incorrectly assumed the bearded popcornflower was absent. Recent plant surveys confirmed that 0. 01 acre of bearded popcornflower is located within the Hawthorne Mill West area. The bearded popcornflower occupies similar habitat as the pappose tarplant. As a result, the total amount of impacted special - status plant habitat is

0. 50 acres, which is less than the 1. 21 acres that would have been impacted by Hawthorne Mill West ( See EIR Addendum Biological Summary Memorandum prepared by WRA, Inc., attached as Appendix A).

Based on these findings, the proposed Project will substantially reduce impacts to sensitive plant species as compared to Hawthorne Mill West, and impacts to these resources will be less than what was proposed for Hawthorne Mill West. This Addendum incorporates the relevant mitigation measures for special -status plant species from the Hawthorne Mill EIR. The Hawthorne Mill EIR concluded that all impacts to biological resources associated with the Hawthorne Mill West project would be less than significant with mitigation. Since all biological impacts ofthe proposed Project are less than those proposed for Hawthorne Mill West, there is no change to this conclusion, and in fact less mitigation is required with reduced impacts., For some biological resources, principally including raptor foraging habitat, impacts will be similar between Hawthorne Mill West and the Project since they would both develop approximately the same amount of vacant land that currently provides foraging habitat. For those impacts, this Addendum incorporates the relevant mitigation measures from the Hawthorne Mill EIR, ensuring that those impacts remain less than significant, consistent with the Hawthorne Mill EIR. While the VAF EIR includes a project -wide mitigation measure for impacts to Swainson' s hawk foraging habitat requiring compensatory mitigation at a ratio of

0. 5: 1, the Project will implement the more conservative ratios ( 0. 75: 1 to 1: 1) consistentwith the Hawthorne Mill EIR. On
October 15, 2024, burrowing owl was listed as a state candidate species by the California Fish and Game Commission. During thelisting review process, burrowing owl will be temporarily afforded the same protections as state - listed species throughout theentirety of California.

Impacts toburrowing owl were evaluated inthe Hawthorne Mill EIR, and, as discussed ingreater detail below, mitigation was included that requires protocol -level wintering and nesting season surveys prior tothe initiation of construction, pre -construction burrowing owl survey no more than 30 days prior tothe first ground - disturbing activity, and avoidance measures pursuant to CDFW guidelines inthe event owls are found on -site or within 600 meters of a development area. To
address the potential impacts ofthe Hawthorne Mill West project related tobiological resources, the Hawthorne Mill EIR included various mitigation measures.3 As noted above, the Note that numerous mitigation measures in the Hawthorne Mill EIR applied solely to the Hawthorne Mill East site and are not relevant tothis Addendum.

Page 507 of 1141 ends

proposed Project will avoid most ofthe biological impacts analyzed and mitigated in the Hawthorne Mill EIR, so only certain biological resource mitigation measures from the Hawthorne Mill EIR remain relevant and applicable to the Project. The following Hawthorne Mill EIR mitigation measures remain applicable and are incorporated into this Addendum, as adapted to the Project ( modifications in stfikee and underline):

MM BIO- lb: To mitigate indirect effects to 0.606 acre of occupied Contra Costa goldfields ( CCG) habitat within the 14N4W Lago Vista Ddevelopment Aarea, 0.606 acre of CCG preservation credits shall be purchased from an approved, off -site mitigation bank. To compensate for direct and indirect impacts to pappose tarplant 0.43 acre& 34- aere and 0. 88 ae-re, res eetively) and bearded popcornflower ( 0. 01 acre), 0. 441. 21 acres of pappose tarplant and bearded popcornflower preservation credits shall be purchased from an approved, off -site mitigation bank. Proof of purchase of preservation credits or suitable land protection mechanism shall be provided prior to issuance ofmass grading permits for Lago- HA4W.

MM 13I0- 1 e: If an active Swainson' s hawk nest tree occurs within 1 mile of HMW-Lago Vista development area, 1. 0 acre of habitat management land shall be provided for each acre offoraging habitat developed or removed within 1 mile ofthe active nest ( 1: 1 ratio).

If an active Swainson' s hawk nest tree located within 5 miles but greater than 1 mile of the P1N43AI-La o
Vista development, 0..75 acre of habitat management lands shall be provided for each acre developed ( 0.75: 1 ratio) through fee title acquisition or conservation easement on agricultural lands, or other suitable lands that provide foraging habitat for Swainson' s hawk.

Currently, aAlI lands within the Lago VistaHMW development area occur greater than -I mile and less than 2. 5 miles from a recently active ( within the last 5 years) Swainson' s hawk nest ( WRA 2025 CPF,' 2013 . To mitigate for the loss of 31. 1 acres of suitable foraging habitat within the Lago Vista 14M-3AI development area, 24—. 3-523. 33 acres shall be purchased at an approved off -site mitigation bank or permanently preserved. Since the mitigation bank or permanent preservation will involve lie existing habitats, there will be no temporal loss or uncertainty regarding successful compensation. Therefore, purchase ofmitigation bank credits or permanent preservation at a 0. 75: 1 compensation - to -impact ratio should meet agency objectives.

In addition, prior to the onset of activities, pre -construction surveys shall be performed in suitable habitats located within 0. 5 mile of the 14N4W Lago Vista development area during the nesting season ( April 1 through September 30). If Swainson' s hawks are found nesting within this limit, activities shall be postponed until young have fledged or a reduced, no -disturbance setback is approved through consultation with CDFW or determined by a qualified biologist.

MM BIO- If: Protocol - level wintering and nesting season surveys for burrowing owl will be conducted prior to the initiation of construction. Additionally, no more than 30 days prior to the first ground -disturbing activity within HME and LTLago Vista development areas, pre -construction burrowing owl surveys shall be performed forthe Project area. If owls are found on -site in or within 600 meters of adevelopment area, mitigation guidelines adopted inthe 2012 Staff Report on Burrowing Owl Mitigation shall be followed ( CDFG 2012) or updated guidance inaccordance with applicable 10

Page 508 of 1141 ends

regulations at the time of project construction. Measures may include the implementation of appropriate nest buffer areas that shall be avoided during construction, as well as establishment of alternate burrow for any burrows directly impacted and conservation of foraging habitat in the Conservation Area, which shall be restored and conserved via conservation easement or fee title acquisition.

MM BIO-lh: When feasible, construction activities and vegetation removal for 14 Lago Vista development areas shall be done outside ofthe raptor breeding season January 1through August 31). If work must beconducted during the breeding season, apre - construction survey for nesting raptors with potential tooccur inthe Project Area shall be performed by a qualified biologist within 14 days ofthe onset of activities inand within 500 feet of the Project Area. If an active nest is found, a 500- foot buffer shall be placed around the active nest until all young have fledged, or the nest has been naturally predated or abandoned. The buffer size may be -reduced by aqualified biologist with approval from CDFW based onproximity andnature ofthe activity tothe nest. To mitigate forthe loss of 31.1 acres of suitable raptor foraging habitat within the HA4W Lago Vista development area, 31.1 acres shall be purchased at anapproved off -site mitigation bank or permanently preserved resulting ina1:1 ratio of mitigated - to - impacted habitat forforaging raptors. MM-BIOIi: When feasible, construction activities andvegetation removal for- dwill be done outside ofthe bird breeding season ( January 1through August 15). If work must be conducted during thebreeding season, then apre -construction survey for nesting birds, including grasshopper sparrow, loggerhead shrike, and other migratory bird species with potential tooccur in the Project Area, shall be performed byaqualified biologist within 14 days of the onset of activities in and within 250 feet of the Project Area. If an active nest is found, a 250- foot buffer shall be established around the nest. The buffer size may be reduced by aqualified biologist with approval from CDFW, based on site conditions and thenature of the activity. The buffer shall be maintained until all young have fledged, or the nest has been naturally predated and abandoned. Environmental Issues New No No No Impact Significant Substantial

D. Cultural Resources ( including Tribal Cultural Resources) The Hawthorne Mill EIR concluded that potential impacts of the Hawthorne Mill West project related to cultural resources would be less -than -significant with mitigation. Existing conditions on the Project site have not materially changed since the Hawthorne Mill EIR was certified, and the potential cultural resources impacts of the Project development area are substantially similar to those analyzed and mitigated in the Hawthorne Mill EIR. The following Hawthorne Mill EIR mitigation measures remain applicable and are incorporated into this Addendum, as adapted to the Project ( modifications in strikeout and underline):

MM CUL- 1: If potentially significant historic resources are encountered during subsurface excavation activities, all construction activities within a 100- foot radius of the resource shall cease until a qualified archaeologist determines whether the resource requires further study. The City and/ or the United States Arm), Ger-ps of Engineers USAGE)- 2 shall require that the applicant include a standard inadvertent discovery clause in every construction contract to inform contractors of this requirement. Any previously undiscovered resources found during construction shall be recorded on appropriate Department of Parks and Recreation ( DPR) forms and evaluated for significance in terms of Section 106 of the National Historic Preservation Act and/ or California Environmental Quality Act criteria by a qualified archaeologist. Potentially significant cultural resources consist of but are not limited to glass, cans, brick, stone, bone, and wood, or features including hearths, structural remains, or historic dumpsites.

Ifthe resource is determined to be significant under Section 106 or CEQA, the City and/ or- the USAGE and a qualified archaeologist shall determine whether preservation in place is feasible. Such preservation in place is the preferred mitigation, iffeasible. If such preservation is not feasible, the archaeologist shall prepare and implement a research design and archaeological data recovery plan for the resource. The archaeologist shall also conduct appropriate technical analyses, prepare a comprehensive written report and file it with the appropriate information center ( California Historical Resources Regional Information Center), and provide for the permanent curation ofthe recovered materials.

MM CUL- 2: Ifpotentially significant archaeological resources are encountered during subsurface excavation activities, all construction activities within a 100- foot radius of the resource shall cease until a qualified archaeologist determines whether the resource requires further study. The City and/ or the United States Army Corps of Engineefs USAGE) shall require that the applicant include a standard inadvertent discovery clause in every construction contract to inform contractors of this requirement. Any previously undiscovered resources found during construction shall be recorded on appropriate Department of Parks and Recreation forms and evaluated for significance in terms of California Environmental Quality Act criteria by a qualified archaeologist. Potentially significant cultural resources consist of but are not limited to stone, bone, fossils, wood, or shell artifacts, or features including hearths, structural remains, or historic dumpsites.

Ifthe resource is determined to be significant under CEQA, the City and/ or- the USAGE 2 As noted above, the City is preparing this Addendum under CEQA' s subsequent review provisions, and the previous NEPA EIS prepared for the Hawthorne Mill Project is not relevant since the Project does not require a 404 Permit. Accordingly, references to USACE in Hawthorne Mill mitigation measures are deleted for purposes of their incorporation into this Addendum.
13

and a qualified archaeologist shall determine whether preservation in place is feasible.

Such preservation in place is the preferred mitigation. If such preservation is infeasible, the qualified archaeologist shall prepare and implement a research design and archaeological data recovery plan for the resource. The archaeologist shall also conduct appropriate technical analyses, prepare a comprehensive written report and file it with the appropriate information center ( California Historical Resources Information System), and provide for the permanent curation ofthe recovered materials.

MM CUL- 3: In the event that plant or animal fossils are discovered during subsurface excavation activities for the proposed project, all excavation within 100 feet ofthe fossil shall cease until a qualified paleontologist has determined the significance ofthe find and provides recommendations in accordance with Society of Vertebrate Paleontology standards. The paleontologist shall notify the City of Fairfield *" pe Tr~: toa States Army Ger-ps efEfigineeFs ( USAGE) to determine procedures to be followed before construction is allowed to resume at the location of the find. If the find is determined to be significant and the City determines that avoidance is not feasible, the paleontologist shall design and implement a data recovery plan consistent with the Society of Vertebrate Paleontology standards. The plan shall be submitted to the City and/ or the USAGE A nE for review and approval. Upon approval, the plan shall be incorporated into the project.

MM CUL- 4: If human remains are encountered during earth- disturbing activities for the project, all work in the adjacent area shall stop immediately and the Solano County Coroner' s office shall be notified. Ifthe coroner determines the remains are Native American, the coroner shall contact the NAHC within 24 hours, and the NAHC shall identify the person or persons it believes to be the most likely descendant ( MDL) ofthe deceased Native American. The MDL may make recommendations to the landowner or the person responsible for the excavation work, for means oftreating or disposing of, with appropriate dignity, the human remains and any associated grave goods as provided in Public Resources Code Section 5097. 98.

Specifically, regarding Tribal Cultural Resources, the Hawthorne Mill EIR analyzed potential impacts to Tribal Cultural Resources under the Cultural Resources impact category. Since the certification ofthe Hawthorne Mill EIR, Assembly Bill 52 ( AB 52) added various provisions to the California Public Resources Code ( PRC) that concern Tribal Cultural Resources, including § 21080. 3. 1( d). The adoption ofAB 52 established the tribal cultural resources environmental factor and related thresholds for Appendix G ofthe CEQA Guidelines. On July 30, 2016, the California Natural Resources Agency adopted the final text for the tribal cultural resources update to Appendix G ofthe CEQA Guidelines, which was approved by the Office of Administrative Law on September 27, 2016. The addition of Tribal Cultural Resources as a separate category from Cultural Resources does not constitute new information requiring a revision to the Hawthorne Mill EIR. Moreover, the requirements of PRC Section 21080. 3. 1 only apply to the preparation of a negative declaration, mitigated negative declaration, or EIR; they do not apply to project revisions that do not trigger subsequent environmental review pursuant to Section 21084 and CEQA Guidelines Section 15162 and require only an addendum under CEQA Guidelines Section 15164. See PRC § 21080. 3. 1( b).

E. Geology & Soils
The Hawthorne Mill EIR concluded that potential impacts ofthe Hawthorne Mill West project related to geology and soils would be less -than -significant with mitigation. Existing conditions on the Project development area have not materially changed since the Hawthorne Mill EIR was certified, and the potential geology and soils -related impacts ofthe Project are substantially similar to those analyzed and mitigated in the Hawthorne Mill EIR. The following Hawthorne Mill EIR mitigation measure remains applicable and is incorporated into this Addendum:

MM GEO- 1: Prior to issuance of building permits, the project applicant shall submit a design -level geotechnical study and building plans to the City of Fairfield for review and approval. The building plans shall incorporate all applicable recommendations ofthe design -level geotechnical study and comply with all applicable requirements ofthe most recent version of the California Building Standards Code. A licensed professional engineer shall prepare the plans, including those that pertain to soil engineering, structural foundations, pipeline excavation, and installation. The approved plans shall be incorporated into the proposed project. All onsite soil engineering activities shall be conducted under the supervision of a licensed Geotechnical Engineer or Certified Engineering Geologist.

G. Hydrology & Water Quality
Potential impacts to hydrology and water quality related to development on the Project site were thoroughly analyzed in the Hawthorne Mill EIR. Existing conditions on the Project development area have not materially changed since the Hawthorne Mill EIR was certified. The Hawthorne Mill EIR concluded that all impacts to hydrology and water quality associated with the Hawthorne Mill West project would be less than significant with mitigation.

Hydrology and water quality impacts will be similar between Hawthorne Mill West and the Project. For example, potential stormwater impacts ofthe Lago Vista project will be substantially similar to those analyzed in the Hawthorne Mill EIR since the amount of impervious surface area created by the project will be substantially similar to what was proposed and analyzed in the Hawthorne Mill EIR. Potential flood risks are identical between the proposed Project and the previously proposed Hawthorne Mill West project. For those impacts, this Addendum incorporates the relevant mitigation measures from the Hawthorne Mill EIR, ensuring that those impacts remain less than significant, consistent with the Hawthorne Mill EIR. 18

Page 516 of 1141 ends

To address the potential impacts ofthe Hawthorne Mill West project related to hydrology and water quality resources, the Hawthorne Mill EIR included various mitigation measures.' The following Hawthorne Mill EIR mitigation measures remain applicable and are incorporated into this Addendum, as adapted to the Project ( modifications in strikeout and underline):

MM HYD- la: Prior to the issuance of a grading permit for either- the HavAherne Mill East Pfejeet of HavAherne Mill West the Lago Vista project, the project applicant shall retain a Qualified SWPPP Developer to prepare and submit a Stormwater Pollution Prevention Plan ( SWPPP) to the City of Fairfield that identifies specific actions and maps Best Management Practices ( BMPs) to prevent stormwater pollution during construction activities for the relevant project.

The SWPPP shall identify a practical sequence for BMP implementation and maintenance, site restoration, monitoring locations and plan, contingency measures, responsible parties, and agency contacts. The SWPPP may include but not be limited to the following elements:

H. Land Use & Planning
The Hawthorne Mill EIR concluded that potential impacts of the Hawthorne Mill West project related to land use and planning would be less -than -significant. Existing conditions on the Project site, and neighboring land uses have not materially changed since the Hawthorne Mill EIR was certified, and the potential impacts ofthe Project related to land use and planning are substantially similar to those analyzed in the Hawthorne Mill EIR. The proposed Project includes a General Plan Amendment to redesignate approximately 15. 8 acres ofthe site as Residential High, which would reduce the area designated Residential Low Medium by approximately 9.4 acres and the area designated Open Space Conservation (OSC) by approximately 6.2 acres. The proposed Project also includes a Zoning Amendment to rezone the

37. 2- acre Project area consistent with the area' s General Plan land use designations. Because the Project involves a zone change, it will be reviewed by the Solano County Airport Land Use Commission.

I. Noise
The Hawthorne Mill EIR concluded that potential impacts of the Hawthorne Mill West project related to noise would be less -than -significant with mitigation. Existing conditions on the Project development area and neighboring land uses have not materially changed since the Hawthorne Mill EIR was certified. The same conclusions in the Hawthorne Mill EIR related to construction noise, vibration, and exposure of future residents to sources of noise apply to the proposed Lago Vista project as the proposed land uses and location ofthose land uses is substantially similar to what was proposed for Hawthorne Mill West. The primary source of noise exposure for Lago Vista is Air Base Parkway, and the Hawthorne Mill EIR included mitigation measures to address potential impacts of Air Base Parkway noise on future residents. The Hawthorne Mill EIR also included standard mitigation measures to address the potential impacts of construction noise on nearby receptors. The following Hawthorne Mill EIR mitigation measures remain applicable to the Project4 and are incorporated into this Addendum, as adapted to the Lago Vista project modifications in str-ikeeu and underline):

MM N01- 1: The project applicant shall require construction contractors to adhere to the following noise attenuation requirements:
o Construction activities shall be limited to between the hours of 7: 00 a.m. and 10: 00 p.m. o All construction equipment shall use noise -reduction features ( e. g., mufflers and engine shrouds) that are no less effective than those originally installed by the manufacturer. o Construction staging and heavy equipment maintenance activities shall be performed a minimum distance of 300 feet from the nearest offsite residential building, unless safety or technical factors take precedence.
o Stationary combustion equipment such as pumps or generators operating within 300 feet of any offsite residential building shall be shielded with a noise protection barrier.

MM N014a: The project applicant shall construct a 7- foot- high sound wall along the 14a,A4t,,, me Mill West Lago Vista residential lot inspection lines contiguous with Air Base Parkway. To control flanking noise, the sound wall shall extend the length ofthe first lot at each driveway. The sound wall shall be constructed free of any decorative cutouts or openings. Exhibit 3. 10 2 provides the proposed locations ofthe sound walls.

MM N014c: The project applicant shall provide a " windows closed" condition for all 14&,mt,,,me Mill East and 14aA+ i.,.me Mill West. Lao Vista residential units. A " windows closed" condition requires a means of mechanical ventilation pursuant to California Building Code standards. This shall be achieved with standard air conditioning or a fresh air intake 4 Note that numerous mitigation measures in the Hawthorne Mill EIR applied solely to the Hawthorne Mill East site and are not relevant to this Addendum.
23

Page 521 of 1141 ends

system.

MM N01- 4d: The project applicant shall require that all 14ayAh, me Taal East and 14ayAh, fne Mill West Lago Vista residential windows and glass doors that are located within 200 feet of the centerline ofCement 144" Read e Air Base Parkway shall have a minimum Sound Transmission Class ( STC) rating of 28.

MM N0I-4e: The project applicant shall require that all L7ay. 4herne ", rill East and uawth., me Mill Wes i Lago residential windows and glass doors that are located within 1, 500 feet of the centerline of the UPRR tracks shall have a minimum Sound Transmission Class ( STC) rating of 28.

The only project source of potentially increased ambient noise in the vicinity ofthe Lago Vista Project ( impact threshold ( c)) is noise generated by vehicle trips. The number of vehicle trips generated by the project is driven by the number of residential units. The Project trips would not exceed the trips generated by Villages I and II as studied in the VAF EIR. The combined Villages I and II and Lago Vista would generate 2, 682 fewer daily trips, 32 fewer AM peak hour trips, and 239 fewer PM peak hour trips than the VAF EIR trip generation budget, and all of those vehicle trips will be routed through Village II, so it is appropriate to analyze noise impacts associated with Project trip generation as VAF impacts under the VAF EIR. The daily trips generated internal to Villages I and II under the VAF EIR are greater than now proposed, just as the noise generated by daily trips under the VAF EIR are greater than now proposed. The VAF EIR analyzed traffic noise associated with the Project, including Village I -II, and concluded that those impacts would be less -than -significant with mitigation. Also, those mitigation measures include the construction of barrier walls along Cement Hill Road and Clay Bank Road and apply to the entire VAF Project. Those mitigation measures will continue to apply to the entire VAF Project, including Lago Vista, and are incorporated herein by reference.

J. Population & Housing
The potential impacts ofthe Project related to population and housing are driven by the number of residential units and associated population. As discussed in the project description above, most ofthe residential units in the Project are being re -allocated from already- entitled units in Villages I -II, so it is appropriate to analyze impacts associated with the Project with respect to population and housing as VAF impacts under the VAF EIR. These impacts were analyzed in VAF EIR Chapter 3 ( Land Use and Housing and Population), and determined to be less than significant. s As concluded in the VAF EIR, the total future housing and residential population are consistent with the housing and population growth allocated to the VAF project area and considered in the PWMP and the City' s General Plan. The re -allocation of 295 units from Village I -II and the addition of 80 units previously analyzed for the Lago Vista site in the Hawthorne Mill EIR will not change the VAF- wide total number of units originally studied in the VAF EIR (2, 327 units), so there are no changes to impact conclusions related to Housing and Population.

In addition, the Hawthorne Mill EIR evaluated the potential impacts associated with up to 1, 000 residential units, including 172 units on the Hawthorne Mill West site. The Hawthorne Mill EIR determined that new housing associated with the project would contribute to the City' s regional housing supply and help fulfill the City' s Regional Housing Needs Allocation obligations. The Hawthorne Mill EIR also found that the extension of urban infrastructure to the project site would not represent the removal of a physical barrier to urban growth, because areas on all four sides of the project site currently support or are planned to support urban development and are served or would be served by infrastructure. Accordingly, the Hawthorne Mill EIR determined the proposed project would not induce substantial population growth, either directly or indirectly, and impacts would be less than significant. 5 Potential Project impacts related to Land Use and Planning are addressed above and are compared to Hawthorne Mill West impacts since they are specific to the Project site. 25

Page 523 of 1141 ends

Accordingly, the Project remains consistent with the conclusions in the VAF EIR and Hawthorne Mill EIR and no revisions are required.

K. Public Facilities & Services
The potential impacts ofthe Project related to public services and facilities are driven by the number of residential units and associated population. As discussed in the project description above, most ofthe residential units in the Project are being re -allocated from already -entitled units in Villages I -II, so it is appropriate to analyze impacts associated with the Project with respect to public facilities and services as VAF impacts under the .VAF EIR. These impacts were analyzed in VAF EIR Chapter 5 ( Public Facilities and Services). The VAF EIR concluded that impacts associated with the originally -entitled 2,327 units would be less -than -significant with mitigation. Since the Project units will not change the VAF-wide total of 2, 327 units originally analyzed in the VAF EIR, the impacts conclusions in the VAF EIR remain unchanged with the addition of the Project. VAF mitigation measures related to Public Facilities and Services would continue to apply to the entire VAF Project, including Lago Vista. Mitigation measures include the payment of public facilities impact fees that new development within the City must pay before issuance of a building permit. Payment of fees would offset potential increases in service requests and impacts associated with public services would remain less than significant with mitigation.

L. Recreation
With respect to the Recreation impact threshold ( a), the increase in demand for neighborhood and regional parks associated with the Project is driven by the number of residential units and associated population. As discussed in the project description above, most of the residential units in the Project are being re -allocated from already -entitled units in Villages I -II, so it is appropriate to analyze this impact as a VAF impact under the VAF EIR. The VAF EIR did not specifically address Recreation, but it analyzed the Project' s potential impacts related to Park Facilities in Chapter 5 ( Public Utilities and Services). The VAF EIR concluded that the Project would result in less -than -significant impacts related to Park Facilities with the implementation of Mitigation Measures PF- 20, 21, 22, and 23, which will apply to the Project and which require improvement ofthe Linear Park adjacent to Villages I, II and III and neighborhood -serving parks in Villages I, II and III, along with payment of development impact fees to fund park improvements.

VAF, including Lago Vista, will be served by the existing Laurel Creek Community Park, and the continued development ofthe Linear Park system which runs along and adjacent to the entire VAF master planned community, allowing for pedestrian and bicycle mobility from Clay Bank Road to Peabody Road. The Project will have access to an additional 14. 2 acres of parkland within the VAF master planned community ( including 5. 5 acres in Village I, 0. 7 acre in Village II, and 8. 0 acres planned for Village III) and 11. 1 acres of nearby linear parkway.

The Project includes an active transportation link from the northern edge of the residential development and connecting via a multi -use trail to the existing Portland Drive, creating connectivity between Lago Vista and the Linear Park. The total amount of active use trail and open space in Lago Vista will be 6. 1 acres.

With respect to Recreation impact threshold ( b), the potential impacts ofthe Project would be specific to the Project development area and therefore should be compared to the impacts of the 27

Page 525 of 1141 ends

Hawthorne Mill West project analyzed in the Hawthorne Mill EIR. The Hawthorne Mill EIR concluded that recreation facilities to be constructed as part ofthe project, such as trails and neighborhood open space, would not result in any impacts not already addressed elsewhere in the EIR. (e. g., noise impacts or air quality impacts of construction) and that no further mitigation was required. The Lago Vista project would involve substantially similar development of recreation facilities such as trails and parklets and is consistent with the conclusions in the Hawthorne Mill EIR for Recreation impact threshold ( b).

M. Transportation
As discussed in the project description above, most ofthe residential units in the Project are being re -allocated from already - entitled units in Villages I- Il, which have been developed with fewer units than previously analyzed and approved, so it is appropriate to analyze potential Transportation impacts of the Project as VAF impacts under the VAF EIR. Also, Project trips would be routed through Village II. As discussed in the Transportation Impact Analysis Memorandum prepared by Wood Rodgers and attached to this Addendum as Appendix B, the Project would gain access to the existing roadway network via new local roadway connections to Golden Way and High Line Drive. The Project would eliminate the Portland Drive extension that the Hawthorne Mill Project had proposed and solely connect via Village II, which reduces the wetland and biological resource impacts that would have been caused by the Portland Drive roadway connection. Accordingly, any traffic that was assumed to go north from Hawthorne Mill West to Manuel Campos Parkway via Portland Drive would now be routed west to Clay Bank Road via Village II' s internal streets, so all trips generated by the Project would be indistinguishable from other VAF trips.

As discussed in the Transportation Impact Analysis Memorandum, the new residential streets would typically be 40 to 46 feet wide, including 5- foot sidewalks on both sides ofthe street, 8- foot parking lanes on one or both sides ofthe street, and 10-to- 12- foot travel lanes ( one lane in each direction). Private Street connections for the condominiums would be gated. The private 28

Page 526 of 1141 ends

streets would typically be approximately 26 to 40 feet wide, including one travel lane in each direction, and in some cases, parking and/ or a sidewalk on one side ofthe street.

The Transportation Impact Analysis Memorandum attached as Appendix B compares the trip generation of the proposed Project with the trip generation analyzed in the VAF EIR to confirm that the Project will not result in new or substantially more severe impacts than those analyzed and mitigated in the VAF EIR. Table I shows the approved trip generation for Villages I -II from the VAF EIR.

As noted in the project description, the final maps ultimately approved for Villages I and II included 432 single- family units in Village I and 374 single- family units in Village II, a total of 806 units, 295 less than the originally approved Village I -II total, and no mixed -use area.

As detailed in Appendix B and the tables above, the addition of Project daily trips to the built -out conditions of Villages I -II including Lago Vista results in a total of 10, 404 trips, 2, 689 fewer than the 13, 093 originally studied and approved in the VAF EIR. Accordingly, the trips generated by the Project site would not exceed the trips generated by Villages I and II and mitigated in the VAF EIR, which included significant improvements to Clay Bank Road and other intersections in the area. The Transportation & Circulation mitigation measures in the VAF EIR would apply to the Project, and the Project units would count towards any of the unit count - based triggers in the VAF EIR. For example, VAF MM- TC- 4 provides: " Improve the A.M. peak hour performance ofthe Clay Bank Road/ Cement Hill Road ( S) intersection ( study intersection 11) ... prior to the issuance ofthe building permit for the 1, 948th unit constructed by Lewis Planned Communities." MM-TC- 5 provides: " Improve the A. M. and P. M. peak hour performance.ofthe Clay Bank Road/Air Base Parkway intersection ( study intersection 12) ... prior to the issuance ofthe building permit for the 1, 330th unit constructed by Lewis Planned Communities." Since Project units would be treated as Village 11 units, these mitigation measures would be triggered just as the VAF EIR contemplated. Appendix B includes an analysis of intersection operations with the addition of Project units. All of the mitigation measures from the VAF EIR and subsequent addenda would continue to apply to the entire Project, including the Project.

While the CEQA Guidelines now consider VMT, addenda do not need to consider new impact areas added after the EIR was concluded. See Concerned Dublin Citizens v. City ofDublin 2013) 214 Cal. AppAth 1301, 1320 ( adoption of new guidelines for GHG evaluation was no significant new information requiring further CEQA review because GHG emissions were known information and could have been addressed in the original EIR); Fort Mojave Indian Tribe v. Dept. ofHealth Servs. ( 1995) 38 Cal. AppAth 1574, 1605 ( new critical habitat regulation was not significant new information because impacts to the species had already been addressed 30

in original EIR.) Since the trip distribution and generation of the combined current VAF Village I, Village II, and the Project would be similar to and less than the values in the approved VAF EIR, the Project would not be projected to result in any new transportation impacts beyond those studied in the VAF EIR. From a VMT perspective, there may be a nominal difference between the HMW project that would have routed trips via Portland Drive and Manuel Campos Parkway and the Project configuration that would route trips via Village II to Clay Bank Road. Routing trips to the west may in fact reduce VMT as it shortens the distance to I- 80.

N. PUBLIC FACILITIES
The potential impacts of the Project related to public facilities are driven by the number of residential units and associated population. As discussed in the project description above, most of the residential units in the Project are being re -allocated from already- entitled units in Villages III, so it is appropriate to analyze impacts associated with the Project public facilities as VAF impacts under the VAF EIR. These impacts were analyzed in VAF EIR Chapter 5 ( Public Facilities and Services). The VAF EIR concluded that all impacts of the Project related to Public Utilities would be less than significant with mitigation. All of the mitigation measures adopted in the VAF EIR and its addenda would continue to apply to the Project, including the Project.

The Hawthorne Mill West project contemplated wastewater collection via the sanitary sewer lift station to be constructed as part of Village II, with a backup alternative of connecting to the existing sanitary sewer system at Portland Drive via a temporary lift station and sewer line under the proposed Portland Drive extension. The Project can utilize the now -built Village II sewage infrastructure and route sewage to the west to the sewer lift station. Other utility connections that were assumed to be routed under the proposed Portland Drive extension would be routed to the infrastructure that has already been built or is under construction to serve Village II. Because the Project does not affect the VAF-wide total number of units that was originally studied in the VAF EIR (2,327 total units), demand for all utility services will be similar to what was originally studied and approved in the VAF EIR, so the Project will not result in any new significant or substantially more severe impacts related to utilities.

O. WILDFIRE
The Hawthorne Mill EIR included an analysis of risks related to wildfire in the Hazards section, consistent with the version ofthe CEQA Guidelines in place at the time the Hawthorne Mill EIR was certified. The Hawthorne Mill EIR concluded that potential impacts of the Hawthorne Mill West project related to wildfire would be less -than -significant as the project site is not located in a high or extreme wildfire hazard zone, and is relatively flat, surrounded by industrial and residential uses, and regularly grazed. Existing conditions on the Project site have not materially changed since the Hawthorne Mill EIR was certified, and the potential impacts ofthe Project related to wildfire are substantially similar to those analyzed in the Hawthorne Mill EIR. No mitigation was required in the Hawthorne Mill EIR.

11 P. ENERGY
Since most of the units in the Project are being re -allocated from already approved Village I -II units, this Addendum considers them Village I -II units for the purposes of analyzing Energy impacts. The VAF EIR did not formally analyze potential energy impacts. State CEQA Guidelines Appendix G checklist thresholds were updated by the State Office of Planning and Research after publication of the VAF EIR. The current State CEQA Appendix G checklist contains separate thresholds for Energy, which are incorporated into this Addendum, and shown in the checklist below. However, the total number of units in VAF with the addition of the Project will remaini,the same as the number of units originally analyzed in the VAF EIR, so any Energy- related impacts associated with Project would be consistent with or less than those of the VAF Project. Additionally, the units in the Project will implement Title 24 energy efficiency standards, ensuring„that it is more energy -efficient than those originally analyzed in the VAF EIR.

Q. EFFECTS FOUND NOT TO BE SIGNIFICANT
A. Agricultural and Forest Resources: The Hawthorne Mill EIR concluded that residential development on the Project development area would have no impacts related to agricultural and forest resources. There is no change to this conclusion with the Project.

B. Mineral Resources: The Hawthorne Mill EIR concluded that residential development on the Project development area would have no impacts related to mineral resources. There is no change to this conclusion with the Project.

CONCLUSION
This Addendum is adopted pursuant to CEQA Guidelines section 15164. The Addendum reviews the proposed development activities and project changes discussed above. Through the adoption ofthis Addendum, the City determines that the proposed Project does not require a subsequent EIR or negative declaration under Guidelines Section 15162. The City further determines that the Hawthorne Mill EIR; the VAF EIR; the 2011, 2015 and 2018 Addenda to the VAF EIR; and this Addendum to the Hawthorne Mill EIR and the VAF EIR, adequately address the potential environmental impacts of the proposed Project.

As provided in Section 15164 of Guidelines, this Addendum need not be circulated for public review, but shall be considered along with the prior environmental documents before making a decision to adopt the Project approvals.

The above referenced resolutions, ordinance, EIRs, and the 2011, 2015 and 2018 Addenda and this 2022 Addendum are all available for public review in the Community Development Department ( 1000 Webster Street, 2nd Floor Fairfield, CA) during regular business hours and are all incorporated herein by reference.

1 CEQA Addendum for the Villages at Fairfield Project
(VAF EIR: E.R. 2003-29; 2011 Addendum; 2015 Addendum; 2018 Addendum) (Hawthorne Mill EIR: E.R. 2014-23)
August 2025

1.0 BACKGROUND
The Lago Vista project (herein, “Project” or “proposed Project”) would be removed from the Hawthorne Mill project and added into the Villages at Fairfield project. The evaluation of the proposed Project is therefore subject to both underlying approvals and their respective CEQA certification. See Exhibit X, Project Location and Boundary. This 2025 Addendum has been prepared pursuant to the CEQA Guidelines Section 15164 for the Project, as described below.

The Hawthorne Mill project Environmental Impact Report (EIR) was certified in November 2015 (City Council Resolution No. 2015-246). The Hawthorne Mill EIR analyzed the development of 172 residential units on Hawthorne Mill West (location of the proposed Project) with 825 units planned for Hawthorne Mill East. The approvals proposed for the Hawthorne Mill project and analyzed in the Hawthorne Mill EIR included a General Plan Amendment (GPA 2014-4) changing the land use designations for the Project site from Industrial & Business Park (IBP) to Residential Low-Medium (RLM) and Open Space Conservation (OSC) for the remainder of the site. Also considered and not finalized were a corresponding Zoning Ordinance Amendment, Tentative Subdivision Maps, a Development Review and Community Design Plan, and a Development Agreement.

The Villages at Fairfield EIR was certified in 2005 (City Council Resolution No. 2005-296), and subsequently modified in 2011 and 2015, in consideration of the following actions:
 On September 20, 2005, the Fairfield City Council adopted Resolution No. 2005-296 certifying an EIR for the Villages at Fairfield (the “VAF EIR”). As also recommended by the Planning Commission, the City Council approved the following actions:
o General Plan Amendment (Resolution No. 2005-297);
o Zoning Code Amendment (Ordinance 2005-15);
o Tentative Subdivision Map (Resolution 2005-33); and
o Development Agreement for the Villages of Fairfield (Ordinance No. 2005-14).  On May 3, 2011, the City adopted an Addendum to the EIR in conjunction with its approval of the Amended and Restated Development Agreement (“First Amended DA,” Ordinance 2011-09).
 On August 10, 2015, the City adopted an Addendum to the EIR in conjunction with its approval of the Second Amended and Restated Development Agreement (“Second Amended DA,” Ordinance 2015-19). The 2011 and 2015 Addenda analyzed shifts in residential densities and minor land use revisions, all in substantial conformance with the previously approved tentative tract maps (General Plan Amendment, Resolution 2015- 245).
 On January 15, 2019, the City adopted an Addendum to the EIR (Resolution No. 2019-

Page 535 of 1141 ends

2 14) in conjunction with its approval of the First Amendment to Second Amended and Restated Development Agreement (“First Amendment to Second Amended DA,” Ordinance 2019-01), which adjusted the timing of certain infrastructure improvements described in Exhibit H of the Second Amended and Restated DA.

2.0 PROJECT MODIFICATIONS
Rancho Tolenas Corporation, a subsidiary of Lewis Group of Companies (herein, “Project Applicant”) has filed applications with the City of Fairfield (herein, “City”) for the Villages at Fairfield (“VAF”) Lago Vista project (herein, “Project” or “Lago Vista”). VAF encompasses approximately 431 acres in the northeastern area of the City of Fairfield, located to the south of Cement Hill and the Putah South Canal, north of Air Base Parkway, east of the Woodlake Estates residential development, and west of the Gold Ridge residential development. VAF is divided into five separate development projects, including four residential projects: Village I, Village II, Village III, and Village IV, and the Laurel Creek Plaza commercial center. The Project would add an additional development area adjacent to Village II referenced as Lago Vista. The Project requires a reallocation of 295 residential units from Villages I and II, which have been developed with fewer units (806) than previously analyzed and approved (1,101), and an additional 80 residential units for a total of 375 units within Lago Vista. The original VAF approval included 2,327 total residential units, and the VAF EIR originally analyzed 1,101 units for Villages I and II and an additional 1,226 units for Villages III and IV. The Hawthorne Mill West project planned to develop 172 residential units on the Lago Vista site. The Project would not amend VAF total units but reallocate the additional 80 units to Lago Vista from the previously analyzed Hawthorne Mill West units that have not yet been developed on the Lago Vista site.

Moreover, as discussed in Transportation below, the traffic generated from development of the 375 units is less than generated from the 1,101 units considered in the VAF EIR for Villages I and II. The impacts for Lago Vista that vary based on intensity of unit count are determined by traffic trips for impacts to transportation, air quality, greenhouse gas, energy and noise. All of these impacts will be less significant since the traffic impacts will be less. The impacts to land are the same as considered in the Hawthorne Mill EIR. The other unit-based impacts such as utilities, recreation and population and housing are addressed by fees, which the Lago Vista will pay more according to having more units contributing. As such, the impacts will be the same or less for Lago Vista compared to what was studied in the VAF EIR.

The Project is comprised of 154.7 acres and planned for 151 single family units designated as Residential Low-Medium, 224 multifamily units designated as Residential High, and 42.2 acres of Public Facility and 75.2 acres of Open Space Conservation. The Project accommodates public and private improvements to support the planned development. See Exhibit X, Lago Vista Illustrative. The Project requires the following modifications and as further described herein:
 General Plan Amendment
 Zone Change
 Vesting Tentative Subdivision/Condominium Map1
 Development Agreement (DA) Second Amendment to the Second Amended DA 1 The proposed Vesting Tentative Subdivision Map includes a Vesting Tentative Map for Condominium Purposes for Lot 3, the proposed multifamily parcel.

Page 536 of 1141 ends

3  Development Review and Community Design Plan, Amended Land Use and Zoning
The Project requires a General Plan Amendment to redesignate approximately 15.8 acres of the site as Residential High, reducing the amount of Residential Low-Medium designated area by

9.4 acres and reducing the Open Space Conservation designated area by 6.3 acres. See Exhibit X, General Plan Amendment.

The Project requires a Zone Change to redesignate 154.7 acres comprised of Industrial Business Park, Residential Medium, Public Facility and Open Space Conservation to 21.5 acres of Residential Low-Medium, 15.8 acres of Residential High, 42.2 acres of public facility and 75.2 acres of Open Space Conservation. See Exhibit X, Rezone Exhibit.

Circulation
The Project will connect to Village II via Horizon Drive. An Emergency Vehicle Access (EVA) point, providing access to Air Base Parkway is proposed in the southwest corner of Lago Vista.

The Project will also include an active transportation link from the northern edge of the residential development and connecting via a multi-use trail and associated open space to the existing Portland Drive. This active use transportation route encompasses approximately 3.8 acres of the Residential Low-Medium and would support pedestrian and bicycle connectivity to Portland Drive that ultimately connects with the Linear Park system.

Infrastructure
Lago Vista will utilize the now-built Village II sewage infrastructure and route sewage to the west to the sewer lift station installed as part of the Villages at Fairfield infrastructure. Other utility connections will be routed to the infrastructure that has already been built or is under construction to serve Village II, with capacity to meet the demands of Lago Vista.

Drainage from the Project would be treated and detained onsite, with the discharge not to exceed 90 percent of the pre-project levels. Stormwater infrastructure, including a stormwater basin, would be located within the southeast corner of the Project site (Lot G). This water quality basin is anticipated to be dedicated to the City and included in the existing lighting and landscaping maintenance district for on-going maintenance. Storm drain connections from the proposed single-family lots (Lot 1 to the west and a portion of Lot 2 to the north) to the Lot G water quality basin will require an easement through the proposed multifamily lot (Lot 3) for access and maintenance. The City (and related agencies) will also have on-going vehicular and maintenance access rights to Lot G and the open space to the east of the Project through Lot 3.

The existing water quality basin next to Lot 3 in Village 2 would also serve the northern third of the Project.

Grading & Construction
Mass grading of the entire Project site is anticipated to commence by the end of 2025, with backbone infrastructure and site improvements commencing in 2026. The single family and multifamily lots (Lots 1, 2, and 3) are proposed to be constructed at the same time.

Regulatory
The Hawthorne Mill Project was also analyzed in an Environmental Impact Statement under the

Page 537 of 1141 ends

4 National Environmental Policy Act (“NEPA”) in conjunction with the U.S. Army Corps of Engineers’ (USACE) issuance of an individual Clean Water Act Section 404 permit (“404 Permit”) for the project. Accordingly, the original Hawthorne Mill Project was analyzed in a joint EIS/EIR. No 404 Permit is required for the Lago Vista project, so no further review under NEPA is required. The NEPA analysis in the Hawthorne Mill EIR/EIS is not relevant for this Addendum, which is only required to analyze the Lago Vista project under CEQA’s subsequent review provisions.

Development Agreement
The Lago Vista Project will also involve amendments to the Development Agreement, including to add the Lago Vista site to the Project area, modify the parkland dedication requirements, and accelerate the timeline of certain roadway improvements.

3.0 DETERMINATION TO PREPARE AN ADDENDUM
Pursuant to Section 15164 of the CEQA Guidelines, a lead agency shall prepare an Addendum to a previously certified EIR if changes or additions are necessary and when none of the conditions described in Section 15162 of the CEQA Guidelines (which calls for the preparation of a Subsequent EIR) have occurred. Section 15162 requires preparation of a Subsequent EIR when:
“(1) Substantial changes are proposed in the project which will require major revisions of the previous EIR or Negative Declaration due to the involvement of new significant environmental effects or a substantial increase in the severity of previously identified significant effects;
(2) Substantial changes occur with respect to the circumstances under which the project is undertaken which will require major revisions to the previous EIR or Negative Declaration due to the involvement of new significant environmental effects or a substantial increase in the severity of previously identified significant effects; or (3) New information of substantial importance, which was not known and could not have been known with the exercise of reasonable diligence at the time the previous EIR was certified as complete or the Negative Declaration was adopted, shows any of the following:
(A) The project will have one or more significant effects not discussed in the previous EIR or Negative Declaration; Significant effects previously examined will be substantially more severe than shown in the previous EIR; (B) Mitigation measures or alternatives previously found not to be feasible would in fact be feasible, and would substantially reduce one or more significant effects of the project, but the project proponents decline to adopt the mitigation measure or alternative; or
(C) Mitigation measures or alternatives which are considerably different from those analyzed in the previous EIR would substantially reduce one or more significant effects on the environment, but the project proponents decline to adopt the mitigation measure or alternative.”
Where none of the above-referenced conditions requiring the preparation of a Subsequent EIR exist, the
