FARMERSVILLE
Staff Report 7C
TO: Honorable Mayor and Members of the Farmersville City Council FROM: Jeff Dowlen, Director of Public Works
DATE: September 12, 2022
RE: Well Generator Purchase - 87% Grant Funded
RECOMMENDED ACTION:

It is respectfully requested that the City Council approve the purchase of three Industrial Power Generac propane powered backup generators for city water wells 5, 6 and 7 which will cost $295,900.00.

BACKGROUND and DISCUSSION:

Presently, water wells 5, 6 and 7 do not have backup generators to help maintain water supply to Farmersville customers. Should there be a power outage only well 8 would be able to supply water to the community. This has been a critical issue and a goal of the Public Works Department to have backup power provided at all rehabilitated well sites.

In 2021, staff obtained a Community Power Resiliency grant from Cal OES for $256,000.00 to help fund the installation of backup generators for these well sites. Unfortunately, the grant will not fund the entire purchase and installation of the three generators, therefore the city must provide $39,900.00 in additional funding to complete the project Backup generators require specialized contractors to install, perform the proper setup and startup Therefore, pursuant to our procurement policy, I sought a proposal from a licensed contractor to provide and install the generators.

FISCAL IMPACT:

The city will be required to provide $39,900.00 in additional funding for the purchase and installation of the generators.

Not all codes and standards apply to all configurations. Contact factory for details. Generac ensures superior quality by designing and manufacturing most of its generator components, such
UL2200, UL6200, UL1236, UL489 as alternators, enclosures, control systems and us communications software. Generac also makes its own
spark-ignited engines, and you'll find them on every
CSA C22.2
Generac gaseous-fueled generator. We engineer and
DIN manufacture them from the block up - all at our
BS5514 and DIN 6271 facilities throughout Wisconsin. Applying natural gas and LP-fueled engines to generators requires advanced
SA SAE J1349 engineering expertise to ensure reliability, durability and necessary performance. By designing specifically for
these dry, hotter-burning fuels, the engines last longer NFPA 37, 70, 99, 110 and require less maintenance. Building our own NFPA
engines also means we control every step of the supply

SUBJECT: Task Order with • Collins & Schoettler for Comprehensive Update of the Farmersville General Plan in an amount not to exceed $318,520 RECOMMENDED ACTION:

It is recommended that the City Council approve the Task Order with Collins & Schoettler for Comprehensive Update of the Farmersville General Plan in an amount not to exceed $318,520.

BACKGROUND and DISCUSSION:

The current General Plan was adopted in 2002 and is intended to guide the City's growth through the year 2025. Therefore, the General Plan needs to be updated, and it will take approximately 24 months to complete this project. Once completed, it will be the guide for the next twenty years.

The General Plan addresses the following elements and issues:
• Land Use Element
• Circulation Element
• Open Space Element
• Conservation Element
• Noise Element
• Safety Element
• Environmental Justice Element
The proposal also includes an Environmental Impact Report which will be prepared by Crawford & Bowen.

This proposal does not include the Housing Element as the City will be participating in a Multi- Jurisdictional Housing Element with other Tulare County cities.

Staff recommends contracting this project with the City Planner due to the firm's familiarity and knowledge of the City of Farmersville and for their preparation of the General Plan done in 2002. Competitive bidding is not required when relying upon contracted professional staff to act under their existing contract, therefore the attached Task Order has been prepared for Council's review and approval.

FISCAL IMPACT:

The General Plan Update was previously approved and budgeted as part of the Capital Improvement Plan. The original estimate was $252,000 when first added to the CIP a few years ago. A budget amendment will be forthcoming to update the cost of the project to $318,520.

The General Fund, Sewer Fund, and Water Fund will split the costs equally.

APPENDICES
A Scope of Work for Environmental Impact Report
Executive Summary
The City of Farmersville has requested a proposal for a comprehensive update of the Farmersville General Plan. CITY OF The existing General Plan was adopted in 2002 and is
intended to guide the City's growth through the year
2025. Therefore, the General Plan needs to be updated in the near future. FARMERSVILLE
This proposal to update the General Plan addresses the
following elements and issues:

General Plan Elements
• Land Use Element
• Circulation Element
• Open Space Element
• Conservation Element
Noise Element
Safety Element
• Environmental Justice Element
It should be noted that the Housing Element is not included in this proposal; the City of Farmersville will be participating in Tulare County's Multi-Jurisdictional Housing Element - a coordinated effort of most of the cities in the County. However, the General Plan elements will be synchronized with population projections and other data contained within the Housing Element, as appropriate.

Environmental Impact Report
As required by CEQA (California Environmental Quality Act) the proposal also includes the preparation of an Environmental Impact Report - to determine potential impacts to the environment that will result from implementation of the General Plan.

The EIR will be prepared by the consulting firm of Crawford & Bowen supported by a team of subconsultants. The scope for the EIR pis attached as Appendix "A" and proposes several key technical studies, including:
• Traffic/circulation
• Hydrogeology
Noise
• Biology

:

Proposal - Farmersville General Plan
Time Frame
The General Plan will likely pertain to a 20 year period (which can be rounded up or down to correspond with an even sunset date (suchi as 2045 or 2050, for instance).

The General Plan is proposed to be prepared over a two year period (see schedule on page 9).

This time frame could be lengthened to spread the cost out over a greater time, if that is beneficial to the City.

The Team
Collins & Schoettler will serve as the lead for the Farmersville General Plan update.

Subconsultants will include
Crawford & Bowen, will prepare the Environmental Impact Report for the General Plan; Ruettgers & Schuler Civil Engineers will prepare a citywide traffic analysis (and assist with the Circulation Element);
Kenneth Schmidt & Associates will prepare an analysis of water supply; Colibri Ecological Consulting will prepare an analysis of potential impacts on biotic resources (rare and endangered species) for use in the Environmental Impact Report; and WJV Acoustical Consultants will assist with preparation of the Noise Element and provide noise-related information for use within the Environmental Impact Report. 2 Proposal - Farmersville General Plan
Preparation of General Plan Elements
The following is a brief description of the work plan and components for each element of the General Plan:

Land Use Element

1. Population projections must be revised and updated as per the 2020 Census and California Department of Finance data.

2. Land demand projections must be revised and updated to take into account the updated population projections.

3. A Planning Area boundary will be established around the City. This may include areas outside the existing Sphere of Influence (in anticipation of the potential expansion of the SOI)

4. Goals, objectives and action plans will be reviewed and revised that reflect Farmersville's values regarding growth and development (while also adhering to State requirements and policies pertaining to planning).

5. The Land Use Map will be revised, to designate specific land use categories within the current Sphere of Influence (SOI) area. Depending on land demand projections, the SOI may need to be expanded. This would be recommended as a policy statement in the General Plan.

Circulation Element

1. Working with circulation consultant Ruettgers & Schuler, traffic Level of Service projections will be determined for major roadways and intersections in the current SOl area.

Projections of Vehicle Miles Traveled will also be established, as is now required by CEQA '2. Goals, objectives and action plans will be reviewed, revised and updated as necessary.

3. The Future Circulation Map will be updated.

Conservation, Open Space, Parks and Recreation Element

1. Open space and conservation resource features will be inventoried, particularly within the expanded SOI.

2. Population projections will be used to determine future park and open space demands. 3 Proposal - Farmersville General Plan

3. Goals, objectives and action plans will be reviewed and updated as necessary.

4. A Parks and Open Space Space map will be created to designate future park and recreation facilities in the community, based on population projections.

Noise Element

1. Traffic projections will be utilized to update and designate noise contours on major roadways in the planning area.

2. Goals, objectives and action plans will be reviewed and updated as necessary:

Safety Element

1.. Hazard and safety issues (including flood zones) will be inventoried.

2. Goals, objectives and action plans will be reviewed and updated as necessary.

Air Quality Element
Since 2009, cities in the San Joaquin Valley have been required to prepare an Air Quality Element. This element profiles existing conditions as they relate to air quality, and establish policies, goals and action plans the City will take to improve local and regional air quality, as urban growth occurs.

Environmental Justice Element
As of 2018, cities are required to incorporate an Environmental Justice Element into the General Plan. Environmental Justice means the fair treatment of people of all races, cultures, and incomes with respect to the development, adoption, implementation, and enforcement of environmental laws, regulations and policies.

This element will inventory existing conditions related to environmental justice and prescribe goals, objectives and action plans that the City can use to ensure low income and minority neighborhoods are not exposed to undue environmental pollutants. 4 Proposal - Farmersville General Plan
Public Involvement
Having the public involved in the preparation of the General Plan helps to ensure the plan is supported by the public over time. From this perspective a vigorous public involvement •
program is proposed for the General Plan update:

General Plan Committee
It is proposed that a committee of interested residents be assembled to meet with and work with the consultant team during preparation of the plan. At least 8 meetings would be conducted, with a general outline of meetings as follows:

Introduction
The kickoff meeting will be intended to excite and motivate participants and include a fascinating and exciting video presentation on the components of city planning and what makes for great cities.
"Great Planning" Bus Tour
From a planning and community development perspective, sometimes it is beneficial to get out and see how other communities approach development issues. This optional one-day tour will be conducted by Karl Schoettler and Tristan Suire. It will involve an all- day bus tour of several cities that have implemented cutting-edge design standards, including Reedley, Clovis, Davis, Turlock and Sacramento, California.

The purpose of the tour is to examine first-hand what these cities are doing to put strong planning mechanisms into practice. Lunch and refreshments will be provided.

Land Use Element
Two meetings will be scheduled for this critical General Plan element. Components of land use planning will be reviewed, including population projections and the amount of land that will be needed to accommodate growth of Farmersville through the planning period. The meeting will include goal-setting and mapping for a wide variety of topics including residential neighborhoods, commercial areas, downtown Farmersville and industrial development, among others
Circulation Element
A review of existing and proposed circulation features will be conducted, including streets, bike routes, trails, sidewalks and transit. Ideas regarding future circulation features will be solicited from participants.
5 •
Proposal - Farmersville General Plan
Conservation, Open Space, Parks and Recreation and Air Quality Elements This session will touch on a variety of subjects including the size and location of future park and recreation facilities (and programs), conservation of natural resources (water, soil, air, etc.) and also a specific focus on the issue of air quality, as it relates to growth and development.

Noise, Safety and Environmental Justice
This workshop will focus on issues relating to noise and safety as it relates to future growth and development of the community. Topics related to environmental justice will also be reviewed for ideas and input.

Project Website
The consultant team will work with the City to establish a website for the General Plan update. Information will be posted and continually updated including workshop dates, maps, surveys and proposed policies and action plans, among others.

Community Workshops
While a strong technical base is important in the General Plan process, another key is the articulation of community preferences for the future. To obtain this input, Collins & Schoettler will conduct a community "visioning" workshop. The first step in the workshop is to review the General Plan process and purpose, and then show a presentation highlighting existing features of the community. This exercise helps remind people of what is in their community; it also helps them see the town with a fresh perspective.

The next exercise in the workshop is to break into small groups; each with a facilitator.

Three questions are asked: "What do you like about Farmersville?" "What do you dislike about Farmersville?" and "What would you change if you could (setting aside concerns about money and politics for now)?" These likes, dislikes, and changes are reviewed with the entire group. This exercise highlights the community's strengths and weaknesses, as well as begins the articulation of the ideas for achieving a preferred future.

In the next exercise, small groups are again formed and asked to create a picture of the future of the City. Groups will be provided with large sheets of paper, as well as colored markers, magazines with scissors, tape, glue sticks, etc. Groups are encouraged to use whatever technique they prefer to get across their ideas. Sometimes, the vision tends to be literal, looking like a map of the future showing roads, land uses, parks, etc. Other times, the group's vision is more impressionistic-sometimes a montage of images. 6 Proposal - Farmersville General Plan
The visions created by each of the small groups are shared with everyone. People are also given cards or other forms so they can record their individual ideas as well.

Based on this input, Collins & Schoettler will prepare "planning principles" to act as guidelines for the preparation of the General Plan update.

Joint Planning Commission/City Council Study Session(s) Based on the results from the General Plan Committee meetings and the Community Visioning Workshops, the Consultant will present the preferred General Plan to the Commission and City Council along with alternatives. It is the intention of Collins & Schoettler that the preferred General Plan would be "fine-tuned" at these sessions and that the Environmental Impact Report be prepared on the preferred General Plan.

Public Hearings before Planning Commission and City Council Collins & Schoettler will attend all public hearings to present the General Plan and Environmental Impact Report to the Planning Commission and City Council. :

Air Quality
Crawford & Bowen will provide the air quality analysis in the ADEIR. In 2015, the SJVAPCD updated its Guidance for Assessing and Mitigating Air Quality Impacts (GAMAQI). The following guidance is provided specifically for long-range planning documents, such as General Plans. "CEQA applies to a wide variety of projects. Complete general plan updates covering thousands of acres are discretionary projects and so are parcel maps and even site plans in some jurisdictions. The general plan often only identifies the eventual use of a parcel of land in vague terms. The site plan review may occur too late in the process and affect too small of an area to allow effective mitigation measures to be identified. In addition, differences in conditions at a site greatly influence the effectiveness of mitigation measures. The overall approach recommended by the District is to use policy statements, design standards, and community-wide programs at the general plan/specific plan level, and site-specific measures when the site-specific uses are proposed." Based on this approach, Crawford & Bowen will provide a qualitative air emission analysis for the Farmerville General Plan Update based on the SJVAPCD's GAMAQI.

FARMERSVILLE
City Council
Staff Report 8A
TO: Honorable Mayor and City Council
FROM: Jennifer Gomez, City Manager
DATE: September 12, 2022
SUBJECT: Road Diet for Downtown Corridor
RECOMMENDED ACTION:

It is recommended that the City Council provide direction to staff on a "road diet" for the downtown corridor and authorize staff to proceed with developing a capital improvement project.

BACKGROUND and DISCUSSION:

For many years, Council Members have wanted to see improvements in the downtown area which is Farmersville Blvd. between Front Street and Visalia Road. To achieve a more traditional streetscape feel for a downtown area, the elements the Council should consider are ways to slow traffic and to make the area more pedestrian friendly. Narrowing Farmersville Blvd. to two lanes of traffic and widening the sidewalks can achieve this goal. A traffic analysis was prepared by the City Engineer in October 2020 noting roadway maximum capacity and concluding the reduction of lanes would still handle future growth projections. This concept of a "road diet" was first introduced to Council in early 2021, and a redesign of Farmersville Blvd was then included in the Strategic Plan by Council.

At this time, staff would like to present this concept to Council once again to receive official direction and authorization to move forward in developing a capital improvement project.

FISCAL IMPACT:

If Council authorizes staff to develop this concept into a project, then City staff will work with TCAG to identify potential funding for this project.

Background
With the completion of S. Farmersville Boulevard and in anticipation of the construction of N.

Farmersville Boulevard, north of Walnut Avenue, N. Farmersville Boulevard within the Downtown area (see Figure 1) needs to be analyzed for more efficient traffic operations and better mobility of various modes of transportation to promote walkability. The existing street segment of N. Farmersville Boulevard between Visalia Road and Front Street is an undivided 4-lane arterial street, with a mix of parallel and diagonal on-street parking and 7-foot wide sidewalks but no bike lanes.

The following analysis will provide recommendations and conclusions of the existing traffic volume in relation to the need for improvements.

Traffic Analysis
The 2025 General Plan Circulation Element, adopted in 2002, provides allowable Levels. of Service (LOS) thresholds for roadways in the City (see Table 1). These thresholds are used to acmpare current and projected traffic volumes and determine if an acceptable LOS can be Table 1
Level of Service (LOS) Descriptions
LOS : Description Volume/Capacity
A Free flow, low volume, high operating speed, high 0.00-0.59 maneuverability.

B Stable flow, moderate volume, speed somewhat restricted by 0.60-0.69 traffic conditions, high maneuverability.

C Stable flow, high volume; speed and maneuverability 0.70-0.79 determined by traffic conditions.

D Unstable flow, high volumes, tolerable but fluctuating operating 0:80-0.89 speed and maneuverability.

E Unstable flow, high volumes approaching roadway capacity, 0.90-0.99 limited speed,
intermittent vehicle queuing.

F Forced flow, volumes lower than capacity due to very low above 1.0 speeds; heavy queuing of vehicles, frequent stoppage.

Source: Farmersville General Plan Circulation Element
Furthermore, the Circulation Element provides daily capacity thresholds for various road section types, such as 4-Lane Divided Arterial, and what would be the maximum capacity of such a roadway, refered to as LOS E (see Table 2).

MEMO
PAGE 3 OF 4
Under the General Plan Circlation Element, a roadway or intersection within the City of Farmersville should operate at a LOS C. Based on the existing conditions at the time of the General Plan (2002), the proposed segment, N. Farmersville Boulevard north of Visalia Road, carries an average of approximately 8,000 vehicles per day. As shown in Table 2, the ultimate capacity of the 4-Lane Undivided Arterial is 24,000 vehicles per day. The'LOS can be calculated by dividing volume (8,000) by capacity (24,000) resulting in a ratio of 0.33. As shown in Table 1, a volume to capacity ratio of 0.33 is a LOS A. For comparitive purposes, an LOS C of the same roadway would be a maximum of 18,960 daily trips according to the General Plan Circulation Element.

QK retained Metro Traffic Data to perform 24-hour average daily traffic counts on a typical weekday, Wednesday, August 21, 2019 on Farmersville Boulevard, south of Ash Street. The counts collected included vehicles, bicycles, and pedestrians. The daily total traffic volume count is 9,939 vehicles and the total traffic volume count during the peak hour, from 3:00 PM to 4:00 PM, is 833 vehicles. The traffic counts show that this segment appears to be operating at LOS A (9,939 trips divided by 24,000 maximum trips equals a 0.41 volume to capacity ratio) in accordance with the thresholds established within the General Plan Circulation Element, as shown in Table 1.

The Walnut Avenue and Freedom Drive Roundabout Feasibility Study (Feasbility Study) utilized an annual growth rate of 0.52 percent. This rate was established by doubling the annual growth rate of 0.26 percent between the years of 2010 and 2017. Doubling the rate creates a more conservative estimate of projected growth for planning purposes. By utilizing the Feasibility Study growth rate, the segment estimates to have approximately 10,253 average daily trips by 2025. The General Plan Circulation Element also projected that this segment would have a volume of 11,000 by 2025. These projections appear to be a fairly accurate estimate of future traffic to be generated for this roadway, as the current traffic count estimates a daily volume of 9,939 trips.

If the estimated annual rate established by the Feasability Study for future City growth is 0.52 percent, the trips anticipated, totaling 11,082 average daily trips, would still operate at a LOS C in 2040 if trips rise at a rate identical with growth. The use of a higher growth rate than the historic average (0.26 percent from 2010 to 2017) of the City would be a more conservative approach as it would ensure that the infrastructure could accommodate unanticipated growth and not be underbuilt for the capacity needed.

The traffic volume count data is attached.

One way to improve mobility for all roadway users is to provide a multi-modal transportation facility with a complete street concept that safely and efficiently accommodates bicyclists and pedestrians as well as vehicular traffic. Exclusive bicycle lanes and ADA-compliant pedestrian facilities are typically required improvements. For N. Farmersville Boulevard, these improvements could be obtained by reducing the number of travel lanes from four to two with a center turn lane. This would allow room to add exclusive bicycle lanes and maintain some on- street parking.

By changing the roadway to two travel lanes with a center turn lane, it is assumed to be classified as a 2-Lane Divided Arterial. The maximum daily capacity of the roadway would be reduced from 601 Pollasky Avenue, Suite 301 • Clovis, California 93612 • Tel (559) 449-2400 • Fax (559) 733-7821 www.qkinc.com
MEMO
PAGE 4 OF 4
24,000 to 15,000 according to Table 2. The new volume to capacity ratio of N. Farmersville Boulevard would be 0.66, a LOS B (9,939 trips divided by 15,000 trip capacity).

If the projected traffic volume of 11,000 trips is utilized for the 2025 buildout anticipated by the General Plan Circulation Element, the proposed improvements and conversion to a 2-Lane , Divided Arterial would maintain a LOS C according to Table 2 (11,000 trips divided by 15,000 trip capacity equals a 0.73 volume to capacity ratio).

Finding and Conclusion
Based on actual traffic counts performed by Metro Traffic Data and QK's traffic analysis in accordance with the General Plan Circulation Element, the reduction of travel lanes on N.

Farmersville Boulevard will still allow a current LOS B to be maintained exceeding the goals set forth in the General Plan. Furthermore, future 2040 growth projections established in the Feasibility Study do not exceed the LOS C threshold required by the City's General Plan Circulation Element. Current and projected volumes with Levels of Service are shown in Table 3.

FARMERSVILLE
City Council
Staff Report 8B
TO: Honorable Mayor and Members of the Farmersville City Council FROM: Karl Schoettler, City Planning Consultant
DATE: September 12, 2022
RE: Appeal of denial of building permit for addition to an existing dwelling at 348 N Farmersville Boulevard
RECOMMENDED ACTION:

It is respectfully recommended that the City Council conduct a hearing and vote to deny the appeal of the building permit that was denied (at 348 N. Farmersville Boulevard), by adopting Resolution 2022-036.

BACKGROUND:

The applicant applied for a building permit to add a room and a porch to an existing residential dwelling located at 348 N. Farmersville Blvd. The site is zoned Central Commercial (CC) and additions to dwellings are not permitted. Accordingly, the permit was denied.

ANALYSIS
On August 3, 2022, Mr. Armando Banuelos submitted a building permit to construct a 131-square foot building addition and a 90 square foot rear porch, on the rear of the existing residential dwelling located at 348 N. Farmersville Boulevard. Attachment "A" shows the site location and Attachment "B" is an aerial photo. Attachment "C" is a site plan for the project. Attachment "D" shows proposed architectural elevation drawings. Attachment "E" shows site photos of the existing dwelling.

To staff's knowledge no inquiry was made as to whether such an addition was permitted by the Farmersville Municipal Code, prior to submittal of the building permit. Had that been done the applicant would have been advised that their request was not allowed.

The subject parcel is zoned "CC" (Central Commercial). Single family homes are not a permitted use in this zone (Farmersville Municipal Code Section No 17.56.020 (Commercial Land Use 1 Table) However, a legally established home may continue to exist indefinitely, but may not be expanded. This is provided for in Section 17.68.080 (Nonconforming Uses).

The purpose of this provision is to facilitate a gradual transition of these older residential properties to commercial uses (like stores, restaurants; offices, etc.) - that are permitted (and encouraged) in the CC zone.

It should be noted that basic maintenance of non-conforming houses is permitted - such as roofing repairs, electrical, plumbing, window replacement, painting, etc.

Upon reviewing the permit, the City Planner issued a denial of the application.

The applicant has filed an appeal of the decision (see Attachment "F"). The letter makes several points that are addressed as follows:

1. The letter states the existing house would make a poor storefront. RESPONSE: The City does not expect the house to be converted to a store. The preferrable approach would be for a new commercial building to be constructed on this site that meets current zoning and building code standards (an example is the Family Health Clinic on Farmersville Blvd and Pepper Street). However, that would likely be delayed many years if the house is expanded, further delaying the City's goals for revitalizing downtown.

2. The letter states there is a vacant storefront across the street. RESPONSE: The building across the street is old and not built to code, which makes it difficult to market to commercial uses. As long as these older commercial (and residential) buildings continue to éxist, it will be very difficult to revitalize the downtown.

3. The letter states there is an abundance of vacant lots and space in the downtown for someone who wants to open a business. RESPONSE: Staff believes the revitalization of downtown continues to be hindered due to the presence of substandard and non- conforming properties (such as the subject house) resulting in vacant lots and storefronts.

The revitalization of downtown will not be served by the entrenchment of existing single family homes that are allowed to expand

4. The applicant indicates they don't want another unoccupied property (if the home cannot be expanded). RESPONSE: The City is not preventing the existing home from being occupied. The home can continue to exist indefinitely and can be improved for health and safety purposes (such as electrical, plumbing, roofing and similar repairs). It just cannot be expanded.

Previous Actions
In 2009 the City Council denied an application for the addition of a porch on a house at 463 N.

Farmersville Boulevard (also located within the CC zone).

Precedent-Setting Concern
If the City Council allows this expansion, it would set a poor precedent for the downtown and the City as a whole. It would signal that non-conforming uses can be expanded virtually any time and anywhere, and that zoning standards really do not matter. 2 -
For this reason and the purpose of the City's long-term goal of revitalizing downtown (currently underway with preparation of the Downtown Specific Plan) it is recommend the City Council deny the appeal.

COORDINATION & REVIEW: (OR PUBLIC OUTREACH AND REVIEW)
The report has been reviewed by the City Manager who concurred with the permit denial.

FISCAL IMPACT:

The applicant has paid the required fee to appeal the decision.

CONCLUSION:

It is recommended the City Council concur with staff and vote to deny the appeal Respectfully submitted, Approved as to form:

BEFORE THE CITY COUNCIL

CITY OF FARMERSVILLE, COUNTY OF TULARE

STATE OF CALIFORNIA

A RESOLUTION OF THE CITY COUNCIL OF THE CITY OF FARMERSVILLE

DENYING AN APPEAL OF STAFF'S DECISION TO DENY BUILDING PERMIT #22-000456 (BANUELOS) AT 348 N. FARMERSVILLE BOULEVARD
WHEREAS, on August 3, 2022, a Building Permit application (Permit No. 22-000456) was submitted by Armando Banuelos (A&C Funding, Inc.) PO Box 1109, Visalia, CA 93279 for construction of an addition to an existing dwelling located at 348 N. Farmersville Boulevard (Assessor Parcel Number 129-111-003). The proposed addition includes a room and patio containing approximately 131 square feet, and
WHEREAS, the subject site is zoned CC (Central Commercial) and the existing use of the site as a residential dwelling is classified as a "Legal, Non-Conforming Use" according to the Non-Conforming Uses section of the Farmersville Zoning Ordinance (Section 17.68.080).

Further, this section prohibits the expansion or addition to legal non-conforming uses in Farmersville.

WHEREAS, staff determined that the proposed expansion would violate provisions of the Farmersville Zoning Ordinance (Title 17 of the Farmersville Municipal Code) including Section

17.56.020 (Permitted Uses in Commercial Zones) and Section 17.68.080 (Nonconforming Uses) and accordingly, staff denied the building permit on August 4, 2022, and WHEREAS, on August 31, 2022 the applicant filed an appeal of the denial by submitting a letter and paying the required appeal fee, and
WHEREAS, the Planning Department has analyzed this request and prepared a staff report to the City Council, and
WHEREAS, the City Council held a meeting on this Appeal and accepted testimony.

NOW, THEREFORE, BE IT RESOLVED that the City Council, after considering all the evidence presented, determined the following findings were relevant in evaluating this amendment:

1. The site is zoned "CC" (Central Commercial) by the official zoning map of the City of Farmersville.

2. The permit is requesting approval to construct a 131-square foot addition to an existing single family dwelling located at 348 N. Farmersville Boulevard.

Farmersville City Council
Resolution 2022-036
Appeal of Permit 22-000456 (348 N. Farmersville Blvd.)

3. The dwelling is considered a "legal non-conforming use" under provisions of Section

17.68.080 of the Farmersville Zoning Ordinance. This means the use can continue to exist indefinitely but cannot be expanded.

4. The project would be a violation of Section 17.68.080 in that it would constitute the expansion of an existing non-conforming use.

5. The project would be a violation of Section 17.56.020 in that single family dwellings are not a permitted use in the CC (Central Commercial) zone.

6. Approval of the appeal would hinder the City's long-adopted goals of revitalizing the downtown, by allowing the entrenchment of a use that is not permitted in the downtown.

7. Approval of the appeal would set a poor precedence and signal that the City's code is not administered consistently.

8. Denial of the appeal does not prevent the property owner from making basic improvements to the structure related to health and safety, such as improvements to electrical and plumbing systems, roofing, heating, air conditioning and similar systems.

BE IT FURTHER RESOLVED that the City Council hereby denies the appeal filed by Armando Banuelos (A&C Funding) filed on August 31, 2022. The foregoing resolution was adopted upon a motion of Councilmember _, second by
at a regular meeting of the Farmersville City Council on the 12th day of September, 2022, by the following roll call vote:

RE: 348 N. Farmersville Blvd., Farmersville, CA
Permit #22-000456 Appeal
- To Whom It May Concern,
We are asking that you reconsider your decision to deny a permit for a 120 S.F. addition and new patio to the residential property located at 348 N. Farmersville Blvd: that sits along the border of the Central Commercial Zone (C-C). I have outlined below some reasons why it would be beneficial for this one-bedroom, one-bath (1+1) home to become a two-bedroom, one-bath home (2+1) and not a commercial property.

The primarily reason is because of the ongoing housing shortage. We need more residential properties, and an updated 2+1 home could house a small family. If we were to leave the floor pian as a 463 S.F. (1+1), it would barely house a single person comfortably. Our plan is to add a larger kitchen and a back patio with washer and dryer hookups making this house a fully contained home for a small family to enjoy (see existing floor plan and proposed new floor plan below). - -

Existing Floor Plan Now Floor Plan
Even though this house is in a commercial zone, this house will not be the only residence in the zone. The property next door is an occupied residential property. Plus, there are over ten (10) occupied residential properties located within the Central Commercial zone.
-
g
Attachments for Appeal of Building Permit 22-000456
Attachment "f": Letter of Appeal (continued)
We also feel that this property in its current state is commercial space would require a huge amount of
financial investment and a tenant willing to put in
the money and work. In fact, across the street from
our lot is an available commercial space that also
sits far back from the street, and it sits vacant (See Pict 1: Available commercial property located across the street from our lot.

Pict 1).

Furthermore, there are at least two other vacant
commercial properties and multiple vacant lots
available in our zone. At this time there is no
shortage of available commercial space if
someone wanted to open a business on
Farmersville Bivd.

The last thing we want is to have another
unoccupied property along Farmersville Blvd. An
occupied residential property along the outskirts of
this zone is substantially better than having a Pict 2: Vacant house on Farmersville Bivd. vacant property like this house pictured to the right
(Pict 2) located on the same block as ours.

We ask that you reconsider your decision and allow us to do a small addition to this house to make it a more suitable place for someone to live. Please do not allow this house to be another vacant property for people to vandalize when it could be someone's home.

Respectfully,
aers

Staff Report 8C
TO: Honorable Mayor and City Council
FROM: Jennifer Gomez, City Manager
DATE: September 12, 2022
SUBJECT: Public Hearing: Final Grant Expenditures and Accomplishments for 20-CDBG- CV1-000013 COVID-19 Utility Subsistence Payment Program RECOMMENDED ACTION:

It is recommended that the City Council conduct a public hearing concerning closeout of the Community Development Block Grant (CDBG) 20-CDBG-CV1-000013; and authorize the City Manager to finalize and submit grant closeout documents to California's Department of Housing and Community Development (HCD).

BACKGROUND and DISCUSSION:

The purpose of the hearing is to allow Farmersville citizens the opportunity to review and comment on the following subject associated with the 20-CDBG-CV1-000013 grant including • Final Grant Expenditures and Accomplishments of COVID-19 Utility Subsistence Payment Program
A Public Hearing notice was published in the Visalia Times Delta newspaper on August 30. 2020 CDBG GRANT ACTIVITIES (20-CDBG-CV1-000013)
The City received a grant award of $82,268.00 from the Department of Housing and Community Development (HCD) CDBG-CV1 Program to operate a COVID-19 Utility Subsistence Payment Program. Due to the pandemic, many local residents were impacted financially and struggled to make payments for their utility services. To assist local residents, the City applied for this grant and partnered with CSET to manage the program.

The final grant budget included $74,892.10 for Utility Assistance and $7,375.90 for SET's administration of the program. In total the grant assisted 102 households with an original goal of only 65. Data collected regarding income levels showed that 68 households were identified as Extremely Low, 19 households were Low, and 15 households were Moderate.

The City is now at grant closeout and will submit a package of required documents to HCD.

Residents are encouraged to comment in-person and/or submit written comments to the City, regarding any aspect of this CDBG grant. Residents may contact Rochelle Giovani, City Clerk, at City Hall located at 909 W. Visalia Road, Farmersville, CA 93223 for additional information or to submit written comments.

FISCAL IMPACT:

FROM: Jennifer Gomez, City Manager
DATE: September 12, 2022
SUBJECT: Engineering Consulting Services Agreement with QK for Clean California Hwy 198 Gateway Project in the amount of $550,610
RECOMMENDED ACTION:

It is recommended that the City Council approve the agreement with QK to provide engineering consulting services for the Clean California Hwy 198 Gateway Project in the amount of $550,610.

BACKGROUND and DISCUSSION:

The City of Farmersville requested the assistance of Tulare County Resource Management Agency to seek proposals for consulting engineering services for this project. The Request for Proposals were issued on June 8'h and submittals due on July 13"h. After the 5 weeks had assed, no proposals were received. The lack of responses to bids has become a growin roblem for other cities as well. The County conducted follow-ups with consultants to gai insight into the reasons behind the RFP procurement outcome. Those responses are included in the attached letter from the County of Tulare. Many responses involved the lack of staff at firms to submit a proposal, or they were too busy with other projects.

The project was competitively bid to multiple sources and provided inadequate results and is unlikely to receive a different outcome if advertised again, therefore, sole sourcing this project is warranted and in line with the City's procurement policy. Staff also contacted Caltrans and confirmed that we may proceed with this option
Staff recommends contracting with the City Engineer, QK, to provide engineering consulting services. As a general rule, the City asks QK to not submit proposals that are being competitively bid so they can act as a neutral party as City Engineer during the project.

However, as no other options are available, it would be prudent to contract with QK at this point in order to keep the project moving forward so it may be completed on schedule.

The proposal submitted by QK was reviewed by the City Manager and services will include overall project management, survey services, environmental compliance services, civil designs including grading, and structural design for retaining walls, Caltrans coordination and encroachment permit submittals. QK is partnering with subconsultants Sierra Designs, Inc. for Landscape and irrigation design; Rose Sing Eastham & Associates for Electrical and lighting design; and Soils Engineering, Inc for Geotechnical services.

FISCAL IMPACT:

This agreement is within budget and will be paid by the Clean California Local Grant Program.

Subject: Engineering Consulting Services for Clean California Farmersville 198 Gateway and Downtown Improvements - City of Farmersville, CA
Dear Jennifer:

Thank you for the opportunity to provide services for the proposed Clean California Farmersville 198 Gateway and Downtown Improvements project located at the State Route 198/Farmersville Boulevard interchange of Farmersville, California. This proposal contains the following sections including a Background, Project Understanding, Scope of Services, Schedule, Fee Estimate, Exclusions and Assumptions, and Authorization of Services.

BACKGROUND
The City of Farmersville (City; Client) has recently been awarded the Clean California Local Grant for the Farmersville 198 Gateway and Downtown Improvements. Services include but are not limited to, preliminary engineering, design reviews, final design plans, specifications and estimates, and coordination with the City. This project will be funded through the Clean California Local Grant Program. The City has requested a proposal from OK and teaming partner, Sierra Designs, Inc. to provide professional services for the project.

PROJECT UNDERSTANDING
The City of Farmersville is located in Tulare County, California. The Farmersville Boulevard corridor is an arterial roadway that links State Route 198 to the City of Farmersville's downtown and surrounding communities. This project is intended to enhance the beautification and functionality of the State Route 198/Farmersville Bld interchange and the Citys downtown area through implementing art, landscape, and other aesthetic improvements.

QK has teamed with Sierra Designs, Inc., Rose Sing Eastham & Associates, and Soils Engineering, Inc. to provide the City with a team that understands the vision and goals of the City of Farmersville as well as the project specific requirements as described in the RFP and Clean California Local Grant application.

State Route 198 Gateway Improvements
The RFP provides a detailed description of the improvements to be constructed with the State Route 198 Gateway Improvement Project as shown below:

The proposed improvements at the State Route 198 City gateway will celebrate Farmersville's rich tarming heritage. Designed by local landscape architects, the agricultural theme will transform the State Route 198/Farmersville Boulevard interchanges within Caltrans right-of-way areas (see Figure 1). These areas are highly visible to vehicular traffic traveling along State Route 198 and exiting State Route 198 at Farmersville Boulevard (Exit 111). Pedestrians and bicyclists on the recently improved North Farmersville Boulevard will have enhanced vistas of the interchange as they commute to and from work destinations.

September 2, 2022
The design concept represents Farmersville's unique geographic location at the base of the Sierra Mountains where the foothills meet the rich alluvial plain (See Figure 1). The design incorporates three zones:
• Low-lying fertile fields of row crops and nut and fruit orchards represented by alternating rows of distinctive plantings and rock
Groves of deep-rooted trees at the base of the foothills represented by plum trees • Mountain forests represented by conifers
The focal point of the south area design is a two-level gabion wall where blue glass rocks contained within the framework represent the natural waterways that traverse the region. The City name will be displayed on the top section of the wall and the City's motto, "Strong Roots... Growing Possibilities" will be featured on the lower wall. Each wall will be 4 to 6 feet tall, with 3-foot lettering. From the signage fulcrum, the landscape will feature rows of alternating colors of gravel and drought tolerant plantings to mimic row crops. Blue gravel in the deep furrows between rows will symbolize the valuable waters that sustain the crops that feed the world. The rows and furrows are arranged in a one-point radial perspective toward infinity to represent the vastness of agriculture in the San Joaquin Valley. Other specific design elements include:
• Planting 48 low-water and drought-tolerant trees including 6 Canary Island Pine and 42 Purple Pony Red Leaf Plum trees that will provide valuable carbon sequestration and shade. • Planting 914 native and drought-tolerant shrubs in distinctive alternative. rows of Manzanita, Sage and Chrysactinia Mexicana (Damianita). The plantings require minimal water after establishment and will be colorful and dramatic during their bloom season. The plant palette has been transmitted to Caltrans District 6 Landscape Architect Brad Cole for review and to provide recommendations or approval of the selections.

Installing approximately 4,650 linear feet of irrigation lines in a state-of-the-art bubbler and drip irrigation system will use significantly less water (50-75%) than allowed by the Water • Installing approximately 254,620 square feet of permeable landscape design. The "smart" irrigation system will not overwater and any runoff from rain events is expected to be minimal because the design features all permeable surfaces atop highly absorbent native sandy loam soils. The grading will be designed to keep all rainwater on site. • Two metal art installations featuring agricultural themes on each of the triangular gabion walls (west facing). They will be backlit to showcase the design at night. • Installation of LED solar powered rope lighting that illuminate the blue glass rock wall and showcase the Farmersville letter with back lighting.
• Installation of LED solar powered rope lighting that will back light the Farmersville motto lettering.

The gateway improvements will be constructed in Caltrans' right-of-way in previously disturbed open spaces that were recently graded when dual roundabouts were installed in 2016. Farmersville has been in communications with Caltrans District 6 staff and does not anticipate any delays in implementing the project during the permitting phase to formalize roles and responsibilities during the three-year plant establishment period. The project will preserve all existing Caltrans access points, shoulders, and surface areas. The project complements existing roundabout improvements, crosswalks, sidewalk installations included with the North Farmersville Boulevard widening project which will be complete this summer.

Signage will be installed in the north area mounted on a triangular gabion wall with the City's name The sign will be 6-feet high, and lettering will be 3-feet high. The embankment in this area will be covered with tan decomposed granite (DG) with bluish grey DG stripes that mirror the furrow design of the south area.

Notice to Proceed October 2022
Questions were received by consultants and responses were provided by the County/City per the schedule oted above. After 5 weeks of bidding, no proposals were received. The County conducted follow-ups wit he consultants via telephone and email to gain insight on the reasons behind the RFP procurement outcom The City reviewed its procurement policy and reached out to the District Local Assistance Engineer and concluded that the City will sole-source the project since the competitive solicitation resulted in no and/or inadequate results. Based on the feedback provided by prospective consultants, the County believes that the City's determination to sole-source the project is warranted since the City is not likely to receive any bids if the County/City were to re-bid the project. The consultants' responses are attached for your reference.

Name of Firm: Lane Engineers (Spoke with John)

1. Question: Did your firm receive the email notification for the Request for Proposal (RFP) for the Clean California Farmersville 198 Gateway and Downtown Improvements Project? Answer: Yes

2. Question: Is there a reason(s) your firm did not submit a proposal? Answer: They don't do proposals with the County of Tulare because they know their company's prices aren't what the county is looking for and they're usually not chosen. They know they're on the more expensive side because they do their best to provide quality work. For that reason, they choose to not submit proposals.

3. Question: Can you provide feedback/suggestions for what the County of Tulare/City of Farmersville can do to promote better participation from consultants and/or achieve a better outcome for future RFPs?
Answer: Some methods they've seen that they've liked are using a general "on call list". This is a general on call list for engineers that lasts 3 years. After they are chosen to go on this list the company goes with their first choice, then for the next project the next consultant on that list.

This gives everybody an opportunity.

2. Question: Is there a reason(s) your firm did not submit a proposal? Answer: Farmersville has mainly been working with 2K. They feel they can't win and work from the County. So, since they feel the consultant is already chosen, they don't send proposals because it requires a lot of time and work on their part.

Subject: Engineering Consulting Services for Clean California Farmersville 198 Gateway and Downtown Improvements - City of Farmersville, CA
:

Dear Jennifer:

Thank you for the opportunity to provide services for the proposed Clean California Farmersville 198 Gateway and Downtown Improvements project located at the State Route 198/Farmersville Boulevard interchange of Farmersville California. This proposal contains the following sections including a Background, Project Understanding, Scope of Services, Schedule, Fee Estimate, Exclusions and Assumptions, and Authorization of Services.

BACKGROUND
The City of Farmersville (City; Client) has recently been awarded the Clean California Local Grant for the Farmersville 198 Gateway and Downtown Improvements. Services include but are not limited to, preliminary, engineering, design reviews, final design plans, specifications and estimates, and coordination with the City. This project will be funded through the Clean California Local Grant Program. The City has requested a proposal from QK and teaming partner, Sierra Designs, Inc. to provide professional services for the project.

PROJECT UNDERSTANDING
The City of Farmersville is located in Tulare County, California. The Farmersville Boulevard corridor is an arterial roadway that links State Route 198 to the City of Farmersville's downtown and surrounding communities. This project is intended to enhance the beautification and functionality of the State Route 198/Farmersville Blvd interchange and the City's downtown area through implementing art, landscape, and other aesthetic improvements.

OK has teamed with Sierra Designs, Inc., Rose Sing Eastham & Associates, and Soils Engineering, Inc. to provide the City with a team that understands the vision and goals of the City of Farmersville as well as the project specific requirements as described in the RFP and Clean California Local Grant application.

State Route 198 Gateway Improvements
The RFP provides a detailed description of the improvements to be constructed with the State Route 198 Gateway Improvement Project as shown below:

The proposed improvements at the State Route 198 City gateway will celebrate Farmersville's rich farming heritage. Designed by local landscape architects, the agricultural theme will transform the State Route 198/Farmersville Boulevard interchanges within Caltrans right-of-way areas (see Figure 1). These areas are highly visible to vehicular traffic traveling along State Route 198 and exiting State Route 198 at Farmersville Boulevard (Exit 111). Pedestrians and bicyclists on the recently improved North Farmersville Boulevard will have enhanced vistas of the interchange as they commute to and from work destinations.

The design concept represents Farmersville's unique geographic location at the base of the Sierra Mountains where the foothills meet the rich alluvial plain (See Figure 1). The design incorporates three zones:
• Low-lying fertile fields of row crops and nut and fruit orchards represented by alternating rows of distinctive plantings and rock
Groves of deep-rooted trees at the base of the foothills represented by plum trees : Mountain forests represented by conifers
The focal point of the south area design is a two-level gabion wall where blue glass rocks contained fulcrum, the landscape will feature rows of alternating colors of gravel and drought tolerant plantings to mimic row crops. Blue gravel in the deep furrows between rows will symbolize the valuable waters that sustain the crops that feed the world. The rows and furrows are arranged in a one point radial perspective toward infinity to represent the vastness of agriculture in the San Joaquin Valley. Other specific design elements include:
• Planting 48 low-water and drought-tolerant trees including 6 Canary Island Pine and 42 Purple Pony Red Leaf Plum trees that will provide valuable carbon sequestration and shade. • Planting 914 native and drought-tolerant shrubs in distinctive alternative rows of Manzanita, Sage and Chrysactinia Mexicana (Damianita). The plantings require minimal water after • establishment and will be colorful and dramatic during their bloom season. The plant palette has been transmitted to Caltrans District 6 Landscape Architect Brad Cole for review and to provide recommendations or approval of the selections.
• Installing approximately 4,650 linear feet of irrigation lines in a state-of-the-art bubbler and drip irrigation system will use significantly less water (50-75%) than allowed by the Water Efficient Landscape Ordinance (WELO).
• Installing approximately 254,620 square feet of permeable landscape design. The "smart" irrigation system will not overwater and any runoff from rain events is expected to be minimal because the design features all permeable surfaces atop highly absorbent native sandy loam soils. The grading will be designed to keep all rainwater on site. • Two metal art installations featuring agricultural themes on each of the triangular gabion walls (west facing). They will be backlit to showcase the design at night. • Installation of LED solar powered rope lighting that illuminate the blue glass rock wall and showcase the Farmersville letter with back lighting.
• Installation of LED solar powered rope lighting that will back light the Farmersville motto lettering.

The gateway improvements will be constructed in Caltrans' right-of-way in previously disturbed open spaces that were recently graded when dual roundabouts were installed in 2016. Farmersville has beer in communications with Caltrans District 6 staff and does not anticipate any delays in implementing the project during the permitting phase to formalize roles and responsibilities during the three-year plant establishment period. The project will preserve all existing Caltrans access points, shoulders, and surface areas. The project complements existing roundabout improvements, crosswalks, sidewalk installations included with the North Farmersville Boulevard widening project which will be complete this summer.

Signage will be installed in the north area mounted on a triangular gabion wall with the City's name.

The consultant shall consider inclusion of these sustainable techniques and drought tolerant landscaping benefits:
• This project is to be designed in compliance with the State's Model Water Efficient Landscape Ordinance.
• The irrigation control systems will incorporate soil moisture sensors and rain sensors linked to automatic control system which will enable the system to match the water use to actual need for irrigation.
• The landscape planting palette is to be based in a xeriscape approach. The palette is to will exclude invasive plants and include minimal maintenance plantings consisting of native and climate appropriate plants which will reduce the need for extensive water, toxic pesticides and inorganic fertilizers.

Energy efficient LED light fixtures will be used for site lighting. • The irrigation will be controlled by a control system that is connected to an evapotranspiration sensor.
• The irrigation contro/ system will incorporate a flow sensor which will shut down irrigation water when unexpected flows occur.
• Continuously attractive landscaping throughout the community regardless of the season and yearly rainfall totals.
• Reduced maintenance labor and water consumption expenses during years with normal rainfall.
• Reduce cost to recover from future droughts."
