At that time, the councilmembers voted 6-1 with Councilmember Sandhu voting "no" to set the assessment rates for the upcoming 2026 -2027 years for eight LLMDs to the 1996 levels.

The council discussed how much if any refunds for those eight districts which are LLMDs 1, 3, 6, 7, 8, 11, 12, and 13. The council deadlocked at that meeting 3-2-2 whether to pay a refund of the difference of the four years from the 1996 levels, a difference of the one year from the 1996 levels, or to issue a full refund. At 11:30 p.m., the council voted 7 -0 unanimously to continue the item to the May 5, 2026, City Council meeting, but also instructed the city attorney to set the matter for close session on May 5, 2026, at 5 p.m.

They will receive the difference for the four years of the current rates for those years

3 minus the 1996 assessment levels.

5 Approve appointments.

O. NEW BUSINESS
O.1 Resolution 2026-87 CM Addition of Property Assessor’s Parcel Number 0037- 160-040 to City Council Election District 5
In an abundance of caution, City Attorney David Lim requested Councilmembers Tonnesen and Panduro to recuse themselves, since the item pertains to Districts 2 and 5 and they are the elected representatives for those districts. Councilmembers Tonnesen and Panduro left the dais. Attorney Lim further stated that he is asking the council to approve Resolution 2026-87, adding a parcel of property to District

5. The property sits in between the two districts; however, City Elections Official/City Clerk Rees stated that more of the property abuts District 5. City Manager Gassaway concurs. There are currently no registered voters on the property in question. Under the California Elections Code 21603.A:
(a) If the boundaries of a city expand by the addition of new territory, including through annexation of unincorporated territory or consolidation with another city, the council shall add that new territory to the nearest existing council district without changing the boundaries of other council district boundaries.

Lisa Murphy spoke online on Item O.1.

Councilmember Carr made a motion to approve Resolution 2026 -87.

Councilmember Sandhu seconded the motion. The motion carried 4-1, with Mayor Moy voting no.

Councilmembers Tonnesen and Panduro returned to the dais.

Moved by: Councilmember Carr
Seconded by: Councilmember Sandhu
Adopt resolution.

O.4 FN Budget Update
Director of Finance John Furtado gave a presentation.

6 Michael Rudolph spoke on Item O.4.

City Manager Gassaway stated that Finance staff still needs to bring back a budget document for council to adopt, an expenditure plan starting July 1, 2026, for the next fiscal year as staff is making adjustments to the approved two-year budget in the mid-cycle of 2025-2026.

Councilmember Williams asked for a presentation on the condition of Neitzel Road and surrounding area. She visited the area with the HEART and HIT teams last year and she saw a lot of debris being pulled out of the creek, which is an environmental health concern. City Manager Gassaway stated that it is not currently a project for Public Works, and therefore, it is not budgeted. However, if council determines it needs to be, staff can then decide to prioritize it as there is a current list of projects that need to be completed.

No action taken. Information item only.

O.5 HD Presentation and Direction for Homeless Priorities Item O.5 was continued to the June 2, 2026, council meeting.

AGENDA REPORT
DATE: July 7, 2026

TO: Mayor and Council

FROM: David Gassaway, City Manager

SUBJECT: Resolution 2026 -149 CM Reasonable Accommodation Policy for Remote Participation at Meetings Subject to the Brown Act

Adopting the Reasonable Accommodation Policy for Public Participation at Meetings Subject to the Brown Act and the Legislative Body Reasonable Accommodation Policy for Remote Participation at Meetings Subject to the Brown Act

Funding Source: N/A

Contact: David Lim, (415) 421-8484

RECOMMENDED ACTION
Adopt resolution.

STATEMENT OF ISSUE
The purpose of this resolution is to adopt this reasonable accommodation policy for public participation is to ensure compliance with the Brown Act and codify the procedure for receiving and swiftly resolving reasonable accommodation requests for individuals with disabilities.

DISCUSSION
On October 3, 2025, Governor Newsom signed into law Senate Bill 707 (SB 707), which amends the Brown Act with the intent to diversify and increase public engagement during local government meetings of legislative bodies. Among the various new requirements of SB 7 07, all qualified legislative bodies must provide two -way remote public access to meetings (through a two-way phone or video platform).

SB 707 updates Section 54953 of the Brown Act to allow members of legislative bodies with disabilities to participate in meetings remotely as a reasonable accommodation. (See Government Code Section 54953(c)). If such an accommodation is granted under this new provision, remote participation due to a disability will be treated as in-person attendance at the physical meeting location for all purposes, including for the purpose of reaching a quorum. The

traditional teleconference requirements of posting the address of the teleconference location and allowing public participation from the teleconference location do not apply if the member of the legislative body has a disability for which remote participation is allowed.

The purpose of the Legislative Body Reasonable Accommodation Policy for Remote Participation is to ensure compliance with the Brown Act and to provide a written procedure for receiving and swiftly resolving reasonable accommodation requests for members of the City of Fairfield legislative bodies, consistent with the Brown Act and federal Americans with Disabilities Act of 1990 (42 U.S.C. Sec. 12132). This policy will enable participation in legislative body meetings through remote participation for a qualifying individual whose disability precludes their in-person attendance at a meeting of their legislative body.

REASONABLE ACCOMMODATION POLICY FOR PUBLIC PARTICIPATION AT

MEETINGS SUBJECT TO THE BROWN ACT

Background and Purpose
Government Code Section 54953.8(b)(8) of the Ralph M. Brown Act, commonly known as the “Brown Act,” requires that all public agencies have and implement a written procedure for receiving and swiftly resolving reasonable accommodation requests for individuals with disabilities, consistent with the federal Americans with Disabilities Act (“ADA”) of 1990 (42 U.S.C. Sec. 12132), and resolving any doubt in favor of accessibility.

Requests may be made by any individual that participates in or conducts the meeting, such as members of the public, staff, and m embers of the legislative body. Requests, however, for members of the legislative body for remote participation at meetings subject to the Brown Act should refer to the separate policy adopted by the City of Fairfield (the “City”).

The purpose of this p olicy is to ensure compliance with the Brown Act and to provide a written procedure for receiving and swiftly resolving reasonable accommodation requests for public participation at City of Fairfield meetings subject to the Brown Act , consistent with the ADA, and resolving any doubt in favor of accessibility.

Readily Available Accommodations
Any of the following accommodations can be provided for a publicly -noticed City meeting or meetings open to the public pursuant to the Brown Act, upon request:
 Agendas and staff reports : Upon request, any agendas or staff reports can be made available in appropriate alternative formats to persons with a disability, including hyperlinks where appropriate so that the user can access the linked information.

 For individuals with hearing loss: Qualified interpreters on-site; assistive listening devices; or voice and video-based telecommunications products and systems.

 For individuals with visual impairments : Qualified readers; audio recordings; or large print materi als. Electronic agendas should be compatible with the screen readers that are commonly used by those who are visually impaired.

 For individuals with mobility impairments : ADA accessible facilities, including ramps to access council chambers; Zoom/telephone access.

Additional Accommodations (Upon Request)

Individuals who are deaf or hard of hearing, who are blind or have low vision, have mobility impairments, or have any other disability, may also request accommodations other than those readily available using the process outlined below. Accommodations should be requested as early as possible as additional time may be required in order to provide the requested accommodation. Note that an accommodation will be considered

to be unreasonable and will not be provided if it imposes undue financial or administrative burdens on the City, or requires a fundamental alteration in the nature of a program. If a particular accommodation is unreasonable, the City will of fer an alternative accommodation that is reasonable.

Process to request an additional accommodation:

1. If you have an additional accommodation that is not identified above, please submit a request for such accommodation as soon practicable and at least 48 hours prior to the meeting or time when services are needed. The sooner the request is made, the more likely it is that the City can provide the accommodation or an alternative. You can make this request yourself, or someone can make it on your behalf with your permission.

2. Your request can be made orally or in writing, and you should submit it to the City Clerk’s Office so as to avoid delay in reviewing and processing the request.

Requests can be made by contacting City Hall at (707) 428 -7384, via email to [email protected], or by mailing such a request to the City Clerk’s Office at 1000 Webster Street, 4 th Floor, Fairfield, CA 94533 . Note that if you contact the City Clerk’s Office via mail, you need to make the request early enough that a response can be timely provided.

3. Your request for an accommodation must provide the following information:

(a) What accommodation are you seeking? The City needs to know the type of accommodation you are seeking, and/or how the accommodation will allow you to access and participate in the meeting. You are not required to disclose the particu lar disability; a general statement of explanation will suffice. You may, but are not requi red to, submit a letter from a physician to the effect that the requested accommodation is required for you to access and participate in the meeting.

(b) What is your contact information? You must give staff current contact information so they can res pond in a timely manner. This can be a mailing address, an email address, or telephone number, for example. Note that if only a mailing address is provided, you need to make the request early enough that a mailed response can be timely provided.

(c) Which meeting or meetings? Please specify if the accommodation is requested for a specific meeting, or for all or a series of meetings before a particular body. Please provide the name of the legislative body (for example, the City Council, the Planning C ommission), and the dates of the meeting or meetings for which you are requesting an accommodation.

Procedures for City Staff:

1. Any staff member who receives, or believes they may have received, an accommodation request, will promptly relay the request and the requestor’s contac t information to the City Clerk’s Office.

2. The City Attorney’s Office may be requested to a ssist in the review of requests and assist staff in providing a response to the requestor as soon as practicable.

3. All rea sonable accommodation request responses shall be provided in writing, when such written response can be transmitted in a timely manner prior to the start of the specific meeting. Otherwise, the response will be provided orally. Responses will identify whether the accommodation is granted or granted in the alternative, and any instructions necessary to access the accommodation. If denied, the response will identify the grounds for denial. City staff will document requests and responses provided orally.

4. The law requires that all doubt be resolved in favor of accommodations.

Staff will make reasonable efforts to communicate with requestors to obtain clarifications or to discuss whether alternative accommodations will be viable.

LEGISLATIVE BODY REASONABLE ACCOMMODATION POLICY FOR REMOTE

PARTICIPATION AT MEETINGS SUBJECT TO THE BROWN ACT

Background and Purpose
The Ralph M. Brown Act , commonly known as the “Brown Act,” is California’s “sunshine” law for local government. The Brown Act is found in the California Government Code commencing with Section 54950. In 2025, the California Legislature passed Senate Bill 707 (“SB 707”), which was signed into law on October 3, 2025 and is effective January 1, 2026. SB 707 enacted an extensive modernization of the Brown Act.

SB 707 updates Section 54953 of the Brown Act to allow for members of legislative bodies with disabilities to particip ate in meetings remotely as a reasonable accommodation. (See Government Code Section 54953(c).) If such an accommodation is granted under this new provision, remote participation due to a disability will be treated as in -person attendance at the physical meeting location for all purposes, including reaching a quorum. The traditional teleconference requirements of posting the address of the teleconference location and allowing public participation from the teleconference location will not apply.

The purp ose of this policy is to ensure compliance with the Brown Act and to provide a written procedure for receiving and swiftly resolving reasonable accommodation requests for members of the City of Fairfield (the “City”) legislative bodies, consistent with the federal Americans with Disabilities Act (“ADA”) of 1990 (42 U.S.C. Sec. 12132), and resolving any doubt in favor of accessibility. This Policy aims to enable participation in legislative body meetings through remote participation for a qualifying individual whose disability precludes their in-person attendance at a meeting of their legislative body.

Requests for Reasonable Accommodation
Definitions. As used in this policy, “Member” means any individual who is a member of the Fairfield City Council or a member of any commission of the City of Fairfield, whose meetings are subject to the Brown Act.

Procedure. A Member who desires to attend meetings remotely because of a qualified disability shall make an accommodation request in writing to the City’s Director of Human Resources (“Director”). The request should include a written statement that the Member requires remote participation under this this Policy because of their disability . The Member is not required to disclose the particular disability. The request shall be made at least three weeks before the meeting for which the Member first seeks accommodation.

If the City maintains a “Reasonable Accommodation Form,” the request shall be made on such form.

Interactive Process. The Director is authorized to make reasonable inquiries about the Member’s need for accommodation, to conduct the necessary case-by-case inquiry into the request and to accom modate a qualifying disability, c onsistent with applicable law.

The City may require additional information, such as a medical provider’s certification of the existence of a qualifying disability and the need for the accommodation to attend remotely. The City may not ask the Member or their medical provider to disclos e a

specific diagnosis. The Director will inform the Member, the City Manager, and the City Clerk of the decision on the request for reasonable accommodation in writing.

An approved reasonable accommodation for remote access attendance at public meetings shall be in effect for the period of time that the Member’s disabling condition continues, and the decision of the Director shall reflect this determination.

Confidentiality. All information regarding a Member’s claimed disability or medical information must be kept confidential and maintained in a separate medical file by t he Director. Such information may be disclosed in limited circumstances, such as to first aid and safety personnel, when appropriate, to government officials investigating compliance with the ADA , or to City staff trained on and entrusted with the handling of confidential medical information, if such disclosure is necessary to effectuate the reasonable accommodation.

Member’s Responsibilities Under the Brown Act:

If the accommodation for remote participation is granted, the Member is required to comply with the applicable provisions of Government Code Section 54953(c) as follows:

1. The M ember shall participate through both audio and visu al technology, except that any M ember with a disability, as defined by California Government Code Section 12926 and used in Section 12926.1, or by Section 12102 of Title 42 of the United States Code, may participate only through audio technology if a physical condition related to their disability results in a need to participate off camera.

2. The M ember shall disclose at the meeting before any action is taken, whether any other individuals 18 years of age or older a re present in the room at the remote location with the member, and the general nature of the M ember’s relationship with any of those individuals.

Suspending Competitive Bidding and Authorizing the City Manager to Purchase a Replacement Mixer Gear from Veolia Water Technologies

Funding Source: $259,359; Capital Water Fund

Contact: Michael Hether, (707) 428-7493

RECOMMENDED ACTION
Approve resolution.

STATEMENT OF ISSUE
Fairfield Municipal Utility (FMU) provides water to city residents on a continuous basis and is responsible for maintaining the existing water system, as well as ensuring that it is designed to meet future growth . On May 6, 2025, the City Council adopted the Public Utility Master Plan (PUMP) through Resolution No. 2025 -70 to upgrade and manage the City’s aging water infrastructure. Actiflo is a critical step in the production of water at Waterman Water Treatment Plant (WTP) and used to purify drinking water and manage wastewater. The proposed purchase is necessary to ensure continued operation of the plant.

DISCUSSION
Actiflo is a high rate, water treatment process developed by Veolia Water Technologies to remove solids and other contaminants from water. It works by adding fine material that helps small particles clump together and settle out quickly, allowing the treatment process to operate efficiently.

The maturation mixer for the West Train of the Actiflo unit at WTP has experienced a catastrophic failure and must be replaced to continue operation. While the West Train is inoperable, the Actiflo process operates without re dundancy. Due to the Actiflo being a custom designed unit,

the replacement mixer must also be custom fabricated to meet the unit’s specific design requirements.

The City’s purchasing policy generally requires procurements of this value to be obtained through a formal competitive bidding process. However, the Fairfield Municipal Code (FMC) authorizes the council to suspend competitive bidding and approve a sole -source purchase when doing so is in the City’s best interest (FMC Sections 28.60 and 28.63). A sole -source procurement is necessary in this case due to the specialized and custom nature of the equipment.

Staff recommend the council adopt the attached resolution to suspend competitive bidding and authorize the purchase of the Actiflo micro-ballasted flocculation maturation mixer.

FINANCIAL IMPACT
The total authorization for the Actiflo maturation mixer is $259,358.65, which is the contract amount plus a 15% management reserve ($225,529.25 total purchase amount + $33,829. 39 management reserve). Funds are budgeted in the Capital Improvement Program through the Capital Water Fund (Fund 462; CPW090029).

WHEREAS, Section 28.63 of the Fairfield Municipal Code provides that purchase of materials, supplies, and equipment may be made without adhering to the required procurements methods if they can only be obtained from one vendor, either because the desired materials, suppl ies or equipment is proprietary in nature, or because a sole sourced purchase of such items is in the best interest of the City; and

WHEREAS, the City would like to purchase the maturation mixer as it is necessary to ensure continued operation of the WTP.

NOW, THEREFORE, THE COUNCIL OF THE CITY OF FAIRFIELD HEREBY RESOLVES:

Approving the Conveyance of Easements to Fairfield -Suisun Sewer District Within Accessor’s Parcel Numbers (APNs) 0166 -102-080, 0170-020-140, & 0170-020-170 and Authorizing the City Manager to Execute two Easement Deeds

Funding Source: N/A

Contact: Ryan Panganiban, (707) 428-7017

RECOMMENDED ACTION
Adopt resolution.

STATEMENT OF ISSUE
The Fairfield-Suisun Sewer District (FSSD) is requesting that the City of Fairfield grant a 40 -foot- wide easement on City -owned properties within Assessor’s Parcel Numbers (APNs) 0166-102- 080, 0170-020-170, & 0170-020-140. This easement is sought to accommodate the relocation of FSSD’s 15-inch sewer line on APN 0166-102-080, as well as the 12-inch sewer line on APNs 0170- 020-140 & 0170 -020-170. The proposed resolution authorizes th e city manager to execute the two necessary easement deeds.

DISCUSSION
On May 7, 2013, the City Council adopted Resolution No. 2013 -84, approving the plans and specifications for the Peabody Road Water and Sewer Relocation Project (Project). Construction began to relocate water and sewer utilities along Peabody Road, prompting the relocation of a 12-inch and 15 -inch FSSD sewer line on City -owned properties located within APN’s 0166-102- 080, 0170-020-170, & 0170-020-140 (Properties). Since then, constructio n for the relocation of the sewer lines and subsequent on -site improvements within the Properties have been completed. As a result, FSSD requested easements from the City to allow for their continued

operation and maintenance of the 12-inch and 15-inch sewer line on the Properties. The 40-foot- wide easement will be centered on the relocated sewer lines.

The resolution will authorize the city manager to execute both easement deeds granting the easements to FSSD.

Authorizing the City Manager to Execute Amendment No. 1 to the Agreement for Sharing of State Highway Electrical Facilities in the City of Fairfield

Funding Source: N/A

Contact: Andrea Flores, (707) 434-3811

RECOMMENDED ACTION
Adopt resolution.

STATEMENT OF ISSUE
The City is proposing to install Rectangular Rapid Flashing Beacons (RRFB) for pedestrian crossings at three pedestrian crossings that are located at Linear Park Trail & 2nd Street, Linear Park Trail & 5th Street, and Travis Boulevard & East Bound Interstate 80 On -Ramp. The Travis Boulevard and Interstate 80 On-Ramp pedestrian crossing is located within the State of California Department of Transportation (Caltrans) right -of-way. Since the RRFB improvements will be owned, operated, and m aintained by the City, an amendment to the existing Agreement for Sharing of State Highway Electrical Facilities in the City of Fairfield (Agreement) is required.

DISCUSSION
On August 19, 1986, the City of Fairfield adopted Resolution No. 86 -247, which approved a superseding freeway maintenance agreement with Caltrans. Previously, Caltrans had identified that the existing Cost Sharing Agreement (CSA) for shared traffic signals and electrical facilities between the City and Caltrans was outdated. Additionally, Caltrans noted that the City was not sharing costs related to several other Caltrans intersections within the City. On December 6, 2022, the City Council adopted Resolution No. 2022-320, authorizing the city manager to enter

into a new CSA that supersedes the previous agreement. However, the new CSA did not include provisions regarding maintenance responsibilities for the proposed RRFB pedestrian crossings.

Subsequently, in January 2026, the City submitted a Caltrans encroachment permit appli cation to install the improvements at the pedestrian crossings. Caltrans conducted a full review and confirmed that the RRFB pedestrian crossing improvements would be under the full maintenance responsibility of the City. As a condition of issuing the encroachment permit, the City is required to execute Amendment No. 1 to the Agreement to include the Travis Boulevard & East Bound Interstate 80 On-Ramp crossing, which is fully owned and maintained by the City. After review and in consultation with the city attorney, staff recommends that the council approve and execute Amendment No. 1 to the CSA.

FINANCIAL IMPACT
Amendment No.1 will obligate the City to maintain city owned RRFB Pedestrian Crossing improvements within the State right -of-way, Amendment No. 1 to the Agreement has no financial impact on the City.

PUBLIC CONTACT/ADVISORY BODY RECOMMENDATION
N/A

ALTERNATIVE ACTION
If the council has any questions, this request may be delayed so that staff can provide necessary information. Staff does not recommend delaying entering into the agreement because it would delay the delivery schedule for the federally funded RRFB Pedestrian Crossing Project and potentially lose grant funding.

On February 21, 2023, t he council adopted Resolution No. 2023 -26 (Exhibit B), establishing the LOC and the initial Committee Guidelines and Duties.

At the September 17, 2024, council meeting, staff presented a recommendation from LOC Chair Rick Johnson to establish an attendance policy due to the lack of quorum at two of the first five

Committee meetings. The LOC Ch air made further verbal recommendations to expand the Committee’s responsibilities to include community education regarding Proposition 218 processes in the Landscaping and Lighting Maintenance Districts (LLMDs), convert LOC membership from district representation to at-large appointments, and increase the number of regular Committee meetings from 4 to 6 meetings per year.

The council discussed the quorum issues , the LOC Chair recommendations, and the purpose of the Committee. S taff reported that there is confusion among Committee Members regarding their specific objectives and goals and that there are competing desires for areas of focus among Members. The council appointed a Subcommittee to the Landscape Oversight Committee, consisting of Vice Mayor Bertani and Councilmember Williams, to clarify and further refine the Committee Guidelines and Duties.

At the December 10, 2024, LOC meeting, the Subcommittee explained that the Committee has two primary goals: educating residents and p roviding oversight. The Subcommittee provided 5 key areas of focus, outlined their expectations for the contents of future LOC quarterly reports , and provided recommendations on how to run effective and efficient meetings.

Staff worked with the LOC to develop proposed amendments to the Guidelines and Duties during the February 27, 2025, and March 20, 2025, Committee meetings, and the Committee moved to approve the proposed modifications on April 17, 2025.

The council adopted the updated Guidelines and Duties on June 3, 2025, by Resolution No. 2025- 78 (Exhibit C). The new guidelines e xpanded and clarified the Committee’s responsibilities and incorporated an attendance policy.

Second Update to the LOC Guidelines and Duties
On April 7, 2026, the LOC made a recommendation to council to modify the LOC residency requirements to allow at -large appointments for all members . The Council discussed the recommendation and directed staff to return with a second update to LOC Guidelines and Duties that narrow the scope of duties and responsibilities to oversight functions only, citing concerns with the current broad scope and the Committee’s level of progress since its formation.

The council instructed that the new LOC duties and responsibilities should be comparable to those of a standard oversight committee , closely modeled after the City of Fairfield Measure P Oversight Committee , and should not include duties related to Proposition 218 processes or community engagement.

Staff prepared proposed updates to the LOC Guidelines and Duties ( Exhibit A) which define the LOC oversight responsibilities as:

 Reviewing quarterly financial reports and annual budgets related to landscape services paid for by LLMDs and the General Fund.

 Reviewing maintenance service contracts and quarterly performance reports to ensure compliance with agreed-upon standards and deliverable.
 Examining the use of LLMD and General Fund revenues specifically allocated for landscape maintenance services to ensure transparency and effectiveness.

Several administrative updates are proposed, including:

 The requirement that Committee Members complete orientation and training, including Brown Act and AB1234 Ethics training , prior to attending any Committee meeting (currently stated as prior to attending the first regular meeting).  An adjustment to the timing of Chair and Vice Chair elections from the first meeting of each calendar year to prior to the conclusion of the last meeting of each calendar year.  Clarification that the one-year term for Chair and Vice Chair begins January 1 and ends December 31.
 Allowing Committee Members to provide notification of tardiness to the Chair or staff liaison (current protocol is for notifications to staff liaison only).

Requested Council Action
Staff requests for approval of the proposed second update to the LOC Guidelines and Duties.

The Agreement will allow the City of Fairfield to perform vegetation management, homeless encampment abatement, debris removal, and related maintenance activities on fourteen Sacramento and San Joaquin Drainag e District properties within the city limits and receive reimbursement for eligible services.

DISCUSSION
The CVFPB is responsible for managing and controlling the SSJDD and enforcing standards for flood control facilities that are part of California's State Plan of Flood Control. These responsibilities include maintaining flood control properties, remediating damage, and removing debris and other hazards that may impair flood control operations or impact public safety.

The SSJDD owns fourteen parcels throughout the City of Fairfield that support regional flood management infrastructure and provide access to drainage channels, floodways, and other flood control facilities . Maintaining these properties is essential to protecting public safety, water quality, and the long-term effectiveness of the regional flood control system.

In response to the increasing activity of encampments on State -owned properties and in alignment with Governor Newsom's Executive Order N -7-24 issued in March 2022, the CVFPB adopted the SSJDD Property Abatement Policy on March 27, 2026. This policy established the SSJDD Property Abatement Program, which provides a structured framework for local agenc ies to collaborate with the State in removing debris, hazardous waste, and encampments from SSJDD-owned properties, while also enabling reimbursement for eligible abatement activities.

The SSJDD properties within Fairfield have experienced recurring homeless encampment activity, illegal dumping, vegetation growth, and accumulation of debris. These activities create public safety concerns and increase demand for City resources.

The Fairfield Police Department, Fairfield Fire Department, and Public Works Operations Department routinely respond to issues occurring on these parcels. Typical responses involve Police Department enforcement actions and posting of notices, notification of outreach services, and subsequent Public Works Operations cleanup activities to remove encampments, debris, and hazardous materials.

Police and Fire personnel have also coordinated with the Sacramento and San Joaquin Drainage District regarding enforcement concerns related to illegal encampments, fires, and criminal activity occurring on District-owned properties.

While Fairfield has not experienced significant impacts on flood control operations or drainage maintenance resulting from these activities, the continued presence of encampments and illegal dumping presents several concerns, including:

 Increased risk of vegetation and debris fires
 Accumulation of trash and pollutants within drainage corridors  Potential damage to flood control and drainage infrastructure  Increased demand for Police, Fire, and Public Works resources  Degradation of natural resources and public spaces
 Public health and safety concerns associated with illegal dumping and encampment activity

In the absence of this Agreement, the City would continue to respond to emergency public safety incidents on SSJDD properties; however, the City would not conduct cleanup or abatement activities. Consequently, debris, hazardous waste, and encampment -related materials may remain on -site, potentially leading to increased risks of pollution, fire hazards, and adverse effects on waterways and flood control infrastructure.

The SSJDD Property Abatement Program was established to assist local agencies in addressing unauthorized encampments, vegetation overgrowth, illegal dumping, and related public safety issues occurring on State-owned flood control properties.

The proposed Agreement would authorize the City of Fairfield to perform eligible abatement services on SSJDD properties located within the city limits. Work would be performed on an as - needed basis and may include:

 Vegetation management and weed abatement
 Homeless encampment cleanup and debris removal
 Removal of illegally dumped materials.
 Hazard mitigation activities necessary to protect public safety and flood control infrastructure
 Related maintenance activities approved under the program

All work would be subject to authorization and reimbursement procedures established by the CVFPB. Specific abatement activities would be coordinated through a work order approval process to ensure eligibility and compliance with program requirements.

The primary goal of the Agreement is to improve public safety, reduce fire hazards, and protect flood control and drainage infrastructure. Under the Agreement, the City would submit documentation of completed work and associated costs to the C VFPB for reimbursement in accordance with program requirements and available funding.

By entering into this Agreement, the City will be better positioned to proactively remove debris, hazardous waste, and encampments before they can impact waterways, contribute to flooding hazards, or create additional public safety concerns, while recovering eligible costs incurred for these activities.

Upon approval of the resol ution, the city manager will negotiate and agree to any minor modification, finalize, and execute the agreement. Public Works Operations Division will submit the completed application package to the CVFPB for consideration and approval.

If approved by the CVFPB, the Agreement will remain in effect for a three -year term unless terminated in accordance with the Agreement provisions. City staff will coordinate with the CVFPB to identify eligible projects, obtain required work authorizations, perform approved abatement activities, and seek reimbursement for eligible costs.

FINANCIAL IMPACT
There is no fiscal impact associated with approval of the Agreement. The Agreement establishes a reimbursement mechanism through which the City may recover eligible costs associated with abatement activities performed on SSJDD properties.

Participation in the program may reduce the City's unreimbursed costs associated with responding to encampments, illegal dumping, vegetation management, and related public safety concerns on State-owned properties.

PUBLIC CONTACT/ADVISORY BODY RECOMMENDATION
N/A

ALTERNATIVE ACTION
The City Council may choose not to approve the attached resolution, and the city would continue responding to public safety concerns and cleanup activities on an as -needed basis without a formal agreement or reimbursement.

A. EXECUTIVE PROGRAM SUMMARY

The Central Valley Flood Protection Board (Board) is the State agency that establishes, maintains, and enforces standards for the construction, maintenance, and operation of the flood control system to protect life, property, and habitat in California’s Central Valley.

The Board owns and manages, through the Sacramento and San Joaquin Drainage District (SSJDD), more than 9,441 parcels, constituting approximately 27,000 acres of land within the Central Valley. As a result of impacts from the unhoused and encampment establishment, some properties under the Board’s jurisdiction require abatement from damage and debris accumulation.

On January 8, 2020, Governor Newsom issued Executive Order N-23-20 for State agencies to work with local government agencies to identify and assist with the unhoused crisis.

The Board is committed to working with local government agencies to perform abatement work for activities outside of the duties and responsibilities of the local flood maintainer (i.e., illegal dumping, debris accumulation) from human activity on levees and in waterways where flood maintenance may be severely impeded. In this effort, the Board secured limited funding to assist local government agencies with property abatement and related cleanup for SSJDD levee and waterway properties.

A-1. Proposal

a. The local government agency (LGA) will contract with qualified subcontractors through a competitive bidding process or perform property abatement services on SSJDD property should the work not be able to be performed by the LGA themselves.

b. Prior to performing any property abatement services, the LGA will coordinate scheduling, property access, and any other concern with the local maintaining agency (LMA), as to not hinder the on-going operations and maintenance of adjacent flood facilities, if there is overlapping jurisdiction of the proposed worksite.

c. The Board will provide financial reimbursement to LGAs via an executed contract for property abatement; removal and legal disposal of trash, debris, and hazardous waste; vegetation maintenance; and installation of approved barriers on SSJDD properties.

d. Specific work and timelines will be outlined in each contract with a detailed Scope of Work (SOW) in compliance with the Board’s Property Abatement Program.

SCOPE OF WORK

If needed, please edit the Scope of Work in this document. All changes will be tracked changes. Text in red is to be modified by the LGA. Changes made in a different document will not be recorded in the contract.

1. Background

The purpose of this agreement is to address the abatement of illegal dumping and hauling away of materials and debris located on fee-owned property by the Sacramento and San Joaquin Drainage District (SSJDD), which is managed and controlled by the Central Valley Flood Protection Board (Board).

The Local Government Agency (LGA) will follow local requirements to coordinate and provide outreach services for unhoused individuals at the LGA’s expense,

The LGA will contract with a specially trained, independent contractor who is experienced, and competent to remediate any threats to public health, safety, and welfare present at the clean-up site. The Board will reimburse the LGA for approved services upon satisfactory completion, see Exhibit A, Attachment 4, Work Order.

2. Introduction

In January 2020, Governor Newsom issued Executive Order N-23-20 requiring all State agencies to work together with local governments to identify and assist with the ongoing unhoused crisis in the State.

Some of the State’s unhoused individuals live adjacent to rivers and waterways. Throughout SSJJDD properties there are several areas where flood maintenance has been severely impeded by the illegal dumping of materials and debris placed on SSJDD property.

It is critical to the operational safety of the levees, waterways, flood control structures, and the natural environment to address the need for abatement to prevent damage to the SSJDD properties, surrounding areas, and the environment.

3. Location of Services

SSJDD fee-owned property, managed by the Board, in County / City / Entity. Property abatement activities conducted by the LGA or subcontractors, are only for SSJDD fee-owned property managed by the Board.

SSJDD PROPERTY ABATEMENT PROGRAM POLICY

1.0 Directive

The Central Valley Flood Protection Board (Board) is responsible for property, held and owned by the Sacramento and San Joaquin Drainage District (SSJDD) within the Central Valley per CA Water Code Section 8502, which includes maintenance, damage remediation, and debris accumulation disposal, resulting from human occupation as part of the State Plan of Flood Control. Human occupation of these lands may result in the establishment of encampments, illegal dumping, potential public safety hazards such as fires, water quality impacts, sharps or drugs paraphernalia, and direct encounters with unhoused individuals. Removal of encampments and illegal dumping promotes health, safety, and access for flood maintenance inspections and protects the flood control system, wildlife habitat, and water quality. To be compliant with Governor Newsom’s Executive Order, EO-7-24, the Board has developed and adopted this policy to address encampments and impacts of unhoused individuals.

Participants enrolled in the Board’s reimbursable program will adhere to this policy or their local county ordinances/policies, whichever is the most stringent.
