RECOMMENDATION / CITY COUNCIL ACTION
The Environmental and Water Resources Department recommends that the City Council pass and adopt Resolution No. 10991 - A Resolution Authorizing Appropriation of Funds in the Water Impact Fee Fund for the Folsom Reservoir Raw Water Delivery Reliability Project.
BACKGROUND / ISSUE
Presently, San Juan Water District (SJWD), the City of Roseville (Roseville), and the City of Folsom (Folsom), through an existing 84-inch intake pipeline and associated pumping plant, can take raw water from Folsom Lake near the main concrete dam at Folsom Reservoir. This intake also provides raw water to Folsom State Prison. The existing raw water system has been operating without major intemrption or outages. Since there is not a current backup system in place for raw water supply, the three water agencies, the Bureau of Reclamation (Reclamation), and the United States Army Corps of Engineers (USACE) completed a Project Alternatives Solutions Study (PASS) in2006 to identiff potential redundant systems that could bring raw water to the agencies if unplanned outages were to occur again.
On January ll ,2022, the Folsom City Council approved Resolution No. 1 0784 authorizing the City Manager to enter into an agreement with Stantec Consulting Services for the Folsom Reservoir Raw Water Delivery Reliability Project. During the initial phases of the feasibility study, Stantec identified an option for a pipeline alignment that could utilize Folsom Lake Crossing to physically support araw water pipeline across the American River to deliver raw water to the City. Additional analysis is necessary to determine if the existing bridge crossing can support the raw water pipeline.

SUBJECT: Resolution No. 10991 - A Resolution Authorizing Appropriation of Funds in the Water Impact Fee Fund for the Folsom Reservoir Raw Water Delivery Reliability Project
FROM: Environmental and Water Resources Department
02/28/2023 Item No.7.
This resolution will authorize an appropriation of funds in the Water Impact Fee Fund for the Folsom Reservoir Raw Water Delivery Reliability Project.
POLICY / RULE
In accordance with Chapter 3.02.030H of the Folsom Municipal Code, supplemental appropriations may be made by the City Council.
ANALYSIS
The budget for fiscal year 2022-23 was developed in early 2022. At that time, it was anticipated that a total of $155,000 would be sufficient to cover the Folsom Raw Water Delivery Reliability Project and the Non-Potable Water Master Plan. The additional analysis for the Raw Water Delivery Reliability Project exceeded initial budget expectations. Initial funding in Fund 456 (Water Impact Fee Fund) is not sufficient to cover the costs of the additional analysis needed for Fiscal Year 2022-23.
During the development of alternatives to deliver raw water to the City of Folsom, Stantec Consulting Services identified several raw water pipeline alignments to deliver raw water from Folsom Reservoir or the American River to the City. Two of these alternatives included the potential to use the Folsom Lake Crossing bridge to carry the raw water pipes. In order to determine if this is feasible, Stantec recommended that a feasibility study be completed by the bridge designer to determine the feasibility of attaching the raw water pipeline to the bridge.
The feasibility study should include:
o Evaluation of the bridge design capacity to carry the loads of the raw water pipeline. o Evaluation of two potential locations to attach the pipeline, one being the bridge deck overhangs, and the other being the exterior girders of the bridge. o Evaluate the potential impacts to the bridge if the bridge is used to carry the raw water pipeline.
o Develop preliminary concept-level raw water line support details. o Develop a technical memorandum summarizingthe results of the feasibility study.
The EWR Department is requesting to appropriate $65,000 from the Water Impact Fee Fund balance (Fund 456)to cover the increased anticipated costs for the remainder of the fiscal year to conduct the feasibility study.
FINANCIAL IMPACT
The Water Impact Fee Fund (Fund 456) budget of $ 155,000 has covered costs through the first half of Fiscal Year 2022-23 for the Folsom Raw Water Delivery Reliability Project and the Non-Potable Water Master Plan, but funding for the remainder will require an additional appropriation of $65,000. There are sufficient funds available in the Water Impact Fee Fund (Fund 456) for this appropriation from fund balance.

SUBJECT: Resolution No. 10992 - A Resolution Authorizing the City Manager to Execute an Agreement with Iconix Waterworks Inc. for the Purchase of Gravity Sewer Pipe for the Folsom Boulevard 27-InchTrunk Sewer Project (SECAP Project)
FROM: Environmental and Water Resources Department
RECOMMENDATION / COUNCIL ACTION
The Environmental and Water Resources Departments recommends that the City Council pass and adopt Resolution No. 10992 - A Resolution Authorizingthe City Manager to Execute an Agreement with Iconix Waterworks Inc. for the Purchase of Gravity Sewer Pipe for the Folsom Boulevard Z7-lnchTrunk Sewer Project (SECAP).
BACKGROUND / ISSUE
The Environmental and Water Resources (EWR) Department identifies sewer infrastructure rehabilitation and replacement projects through sewer master plans and ongoing sewer condition assessment programs. As part of the City's Sewer System Management Plan for its wastewater collection system, the EWR Department performs ongoing condition assessments on the wastewater system and corrects any defects/deficiencies identified through this process.
Through these efforts, City staff identified the Folsom Boulevard 27-inc,hTrunk Sewer Project as needing improvements.
In December 2021, through Resolution No. 10752, City Council authorized design services with Water Works Engineers, LLC to complete 700% design level plans and specifications.
The proposed project involves the construction and operation of a parallel 2l-inch sewer line adjacent to the Crty's existing 27-inch Folsom Boulevard Trunk Sewer. The existing sewer line has potential near-term capacity concems due to rain derived inflow and infiltration conditions, and in the long-term, requires additional capacity to provide General Plan and 1
02/28/2023 Item No.8.
ultimate build-out growth capacrty. The purpose of the parallel 2l-inchgravrty sewer line is to provide wet weather flow capacitylrcdundancy.
City staff determined it would be best to procure the approximately 5,000 lineal feet of the 21- Inch Gravity Sewer Pipe prior to construction through the competitive sealed bid public process. Procuring the 2l-Inch Gravity Sewer Pipe prior to construction will help alleviate concems related to supply chain issues and long lead times that could impact and delay construction, which is anticipated to begin in the Summer of 2023.
This resolution authorizes the City Manager to execute an agreement with Iconix Waterworks Inc. for the purchase of Gravity Sewer Pipe for the Folsom Boulevard 27-Inch Trunk Sewer Project (SECAP) for a total amount of $431,262.
POLICY / RULE
Section 2.36.120 of the Folsom Municipal Code states, in part, that contacts for supplies, equipment, services, and construction with an estimated value of $70,952 or greater shall be awarded by the City Council.
ANALYSIS
The City completed the Request for Bids for the 2l-Inch Gravity Sewer Pipe and publicly advertised for bids in the January 26fi,2023 edition of the Sacramento Bee. In addition, the City provided these documents to www.ciplist.com which is picked up by several area builders' exchanges. The documents were also posted to the Crty's website. The EWR Department received the bids on February 13,2023 for the purchase of 2l-Inch Gravrty Sewer Pipe for the Folsom Blvd. 27-InchTrunk Sewer Project (SECAP).
Staff reviewed the bids submitted and found a discrepancy between the unit price bid and the total bid price for both Iconix Waterworks and Ferguson Waterworks for bid item 1. The Crty's General Provisions Section 2.01.4 states,
"In case of a discrepancy between the total bid price for an item of work and the unit price for that item of work, the unit price will control." Since the unit price governs, a revised bid tab sheet was established documenting both the original and the revised total project bids.

02/28/2023 Item No.8.
City staff in conjunction with the City Attorney's Office reviewed all three bids for responsibleness and responsiveness. It was determined that Pace Supply was non-responsive because the Sealed Proposal required the bidder to provide a 2-year warranty. Pace Supply only supplied a 1-year warrantY.
Additionally, both Iconix Waterworks Inc. and Ferguson Waterworks submitted on 2O-foot pipe lengths as part of their bid instead of l4-foot pipe lengths as identified in the Sealed Froposaland technical specifications. City staff in conjunction with the City Attorney's Office revLwed the bids and determined to proceed with the lowest bid of the two bidders since both bidders submitted on 20-foot pipe lengths. City staff also confirmed with the design engineer that the 20-foot pipe lengths would be acceptable for the project.
FINANCIAL IMPACT
The Folsom Boulevard 27-lnch Trunk Sewer Project (SECAP) is included in the Capital Improvement Plan with a Fiscal Year 2022-23 project budget of $7,471,945. The EWR Department recommends that the contract be awarded to the lowest responsible, responsive bidder, Iconix Waterworks for $431,262. Sufficient funds are budgeted and available in the Sewer Operating (Fund 530) and the Sewer Capital Fund (Fund 531) in Fiscal Year 2022'23.
ENVIRONMENTAL REVIEW
The Folsom Boulevard 27-lnch Trunk Sewer Project (SECAP) was designed to avoid direct and indirect impacts to the environment. Pursuant to California Environmental Quality Act (CEQA) Guidelines Section 15303 (d), the proposed project consists of construction and installation of a sewer line of reasonable length to serve the needs of the City of Folsom.
Pursuant to CEQA Guidelines Section 15301 (b), the project will accommodate current flow conditions and provide redundancy to the existing sewer system in the City of Folsom. Each segment of the proposed project will be designed and constructed to avoid environmentally sensitive areas. The project design will place the pipeline mainly within roadways and as far away as possible from environmentally sensitive areas. The proposed new pipeline will be located on the same site as the existing public utilities pipeline. The overall design of the project has no significant impacts to the environment and will be exempt from CEQA review.

SUBJECT: Resolution No. 10993 - A Resolution Authorizing the Public Works Department to Install All-Way Stop Sign Control at the Intersection of Parkshore Drive and PlazaDrive
FROM: Public Works Department
RECOMMENDATION / CITY COUNCIL ACTION
The Public Works Department recommends that the City Council pass and adopt Resolution No. 10993 - A Resolution Authorizingthe Public Works Department to Install All-Way Stop Sign Control at the Intersection of Parkshore Drive andPlaza Drive.
BACKG / ISSIIE
The Public Works Department received a request to install all-way stop sign control at the intersection of Parkshore Drive andPlaza Drive. Parkshore Drive between Plaza Drive and Folsom Boulevard has experienced an increase in vehicle traffic after the completion of the Farmhouse Development at Van Dyke Way/Silo Street. An evaluation of the intersection of Parkshore Drive andPlazaDrive was completed, and the analysis determined that all-way stop control was not warranted on a traffic volume, safety, or right-of-way basis. Parking on the north side of PlazaDrive was restricted in 2017 to provide for a greater line of sight.
During the December 8, 2022Traffrc Safety Committee discussion on this item, it was brought up that there are no convenient crosswalk locations for residents of the Farmhouse Community to access the shopping center to the south. The conclusion was that adding an all-way stop control to the intersection of Parkshore Drive andPlazaDrive would allow for the installation of new crosswalks on either side of Parkshore Drive and for the removal of "No Parking" restrictions that currently exist 100 feet in both directions along the north side of Plaza Drive.
The Traffic Safety Committee unanimously recommended an all-way stop at the intersection of Parkshore Drive andPlazaDrive.
1
02/28/2023 Item No.9.
POLICY / RULE

ANALYSIS
The item was considered by the Traffic Safety Committee at its December 8, 2022 meeting and the Committee voted unanimously to recommend all-way stop control; a copy of the Action Summary from that meeting is attached to this report.
FINANCIAL IMPACT
Installation of new signs and markings should not exceed $1,000 and will be paid out of the Traffic Safety Project, Project No. 8023, which is funded through Measure A (Fund 276).

SUBJECT: Resolution No. 10994 - A Resolution Authorizingthe City Manager to Execute Amendment No. 2 to the Agreement
(Contract No. 173-21 22-032) with HydroScience Engineers, Inc. for Design Services for the Ashland Water Rehabilitation Project No. 2 and Appropriation of Funds
F'ROM: Environmental and Water Resources Department
RECOMMENDATION / CITY COUNCIL AETIqN
The Environmental and Water Resources Department recommends the City Council pass and adopt Resolution No. 10994 - A Resolution Authorizing the City Manager to Execute Amendment No. 2 to the Agreement (Contract No. 173-21 22-032) with HydroScience Engineers, Inc. for Design Services for the Ashland Water Rehabilitation Project No. 2 and Appropriation of Funds.
BACKGROUND / ISSUE
The Environmental and Water Resources (EUIR) Department identifies water infrastructure rehabilitation and replacement projects through water master plans, ongoing water condition assessment programs, and regulatory changes. Through these efforts, portions of the water system have been identified as needing rehabilitation or replacement in order to improve the water distribution system reliability. EWR staff identified the Ashland Water Rehabilitation Project No. 2 as a priority project.
This project involves the abandonment of an existing water main in Baldwin Dam Road that has reached the end of its serviceable life and transfening all existing water services from the older water main to a newer parallel water main also located in Baldwin Dam Road. The project also involves re-connecting all branch waterlines, water services, and fire hydrants to the parallel active water main, and demolition of an existing decommissioned booster pump station.
I
02/28/2023 Item No.10.
This resolution will authorize the City Manager to execute Amendment No. 2 to the Agreement (Contract No. 173-21 22-032) with HydroScience Engineers, Inc. for Design Services for the Ashland Water Rehabilitation Project No. 2 for a not-to-exceed amount of $31,944 and appropriation of funds.
POLICY / RULE
In accordance with Chapter 236 of the Folsom Municipal Code. supplies, equipment, services, and construction with a value of $70,952 or greater shall be awarded by City Council.
ANALYSIS
In October 2018, the EWR Department completed a pre-qualification process for consultants for design and construction administration services for water and wastewater projects. The consulting firm HydroScience Engineers, Inc. was one of the firms selected to provide these services for this type of project through this pre-qualification process. HydroScience Engineers, Inc. was determined to provide the best value to the City based on their knowledge and familiarity with the project, understanding of the background and requirements of the project, and qualifications and experience of the project team. HydroScience Engineets, Inc. is currently providing engineering design and construction administration services for this project.
Services recofllmended to be provided by HydroScience Engineers, Inc. include additional engineering design services and construction administration services for the Ashland Water Rehabilitation Project No. 2. Unknown existing and abandoned underground facilities require additional engineering and construction support to develop solutions to work around these facilities. The following describes the additional engineering design services ahd construction administration services that HydroScience Engineers, Inc. will be performing:
o Construction Coordination - extended contract duration and additional contractor coordination.
o Additional responses to future Requests-for-Information (RFIs) and Field Directives.
o Additional responses to unanticipated Resubmittals and additional future Submittals.
o Future Design Modifications.
o Future Change Order Request Reviews.
This resolution will authorize the City Manager to execute AmendmentNo. 2 to the Agreement (Contract No. 173-21 22-032) with HydroScience Engineers, Inc. for Design Services for the Ashland Water Rehabilitation Project No. 2 for a not-to-exceed amount of $31,944. 2 Page 56

FINANCIAL IMPACT
The Environmental and Water Resources Department recommends that the amendment be executed with HydroScience Engineers, Inc. for $31,944, for a total contract amount of 8335,273. The Ashland Water Rehabilitation Project No. 2 is included in the Capital Improvement Plan with a Fiscal Year 2022-23 project budget of 51,742,299, and the project budget was also increased in June 2022 per Resolution No. 10881 in the amount $500,878.
The project budget will require an additional appropriation in the amount of $31,944 in order to accommodate this amendment. This will bring the total project budget up to $2,275,121.
Suffrcient funds are available in the Water Operating Fund (Fund 520) from fund balance for the appropriation to be added in Fiscal Year 2022-23.
ENVIRONMENTAL REVIEW
A review previously performed by HydroScience Engineers, Inc. found that this project is replacement and/or reconstruction of existing infrastructure with negligible or no expansion of use and therefore is categorically exempt from environmental review under the California Environmental Quality Act as noted in Title 14 - California Code of Regulations, Chapter 3 - Guidelines for Implementation of the California Environmental Quality Act, Article 19 - Categorical Exemptions, I 5302(c) (Replacement or Reconstruction).

Folsom City Council
Staff Re rt
ON / CITY COUN CIL ACTION
Staff recommends that the City Council pass and adopt Resolution No. 10995 - A Resolution Authorizing the City Manager to Execute an Agreement with Flock Safety for Traffi c/Automated License Plate Reader Cameras'
BACKGROUND / ISSUE
The City of Folsom strives to leverage technology in innovative ways to combat crime.
Automated license plate reader (ALPR) cameras can quickly locate vehicles that are reported stolen or when the vehicle is associated with a missing person or reported crime. This system can also monitor locations in real time for collision and crime response.
The City currently has 20 Vigilant cameras, which capture traffic entering and leaving the City. The system has proven instrumental in alerting us to in-progress crimes and is an investigative tool used after a report of a crime.
POLICY / RULE
Section 2.36.080 of the Folsom Municipal Code requires that contracts above $70,952be awarded by the City Council.
Flock Safety requires local government approval to retain captured data longer than 30 days. 1 MEETING DATE: 2t2812023
AGENDA SECTION: Consent Calendar
SUBJECT: Resolution No. 10995 - A Resolution Authorizingthe City Manager to Execute an Agreement with Flock Safety for Traffic/Automated License Plate Reader Cameras
FROM: Police Department
02/28/2023 Item No.11.
The 120-day retention will prevent the expiration of captured data during the time when financial crimes such as credit card fraud or identity theft are committed and when they are reported to the police.
ANALYSIS
The area south of highway 50 is an area under continuous development. Construction thefts have occurred, and the presence of ALPR systems is a deterrent to those who would enter the City to steal. We have developed a system of ALPR cameras in the area north of Highway 50 in the past five years, and it has proven to be a valuable tool in addressing crime.
Staff has evaluated the efficacy of our existing system, which cost approximately $27,000 per intersection (consisting of 3-4 cameras and a communications module.) This system has an expected service life of 8 years, which means the cost of the Flock lease at $2,500 per camera per year is equivalent to purchasing camera systems, with the added benefit that cameras that break are replaced by Flock as part of the lease agreement. The proposal will add 12 Flock cameras to the area South of Highway 50.
Flock Safety offers a proprietary system that captures license plates better than other systems Further, this system can interface with our in-car camera vendor's system, and the Flock system is in use in Elk Grove, Lincoln, Roseville, and Placer County. It is also used in numerous HOAs and private businesses in the region. Using the same system allows for interoperability and a more extensive reach in searching for wanted vehicles.
Images captured by the Flock system are deleted by default in 30 days. They can be held longer with the approval of the local governing body. The Vigilant system has no restriction on data retention.
Our investigative staff have routinely used data older than 30 days to solve crimes.
Particularly financial crimes that are not discovered for several weeks after they are committed. Staff recommends adopting a 120-day retention policy on Flock images to balance privacy interests with the need to retain data for criminal investigations.
Flock's standard contract is a two-year term. The total price, including installation and data processing and storage is $76,400, with an ongoing cost of $36,100 in years thereafter.
FIN IMPACT
Folsom received $202,061as the allocation for the 2021-22 Citizens' Option for Public Safety (COPS) funds. These funds each year can only be used for frontJine law enforcement and the funds are non-supplanting. The Police Department chose to allocate these funds to supplies and technology. There are suffrcient COPS funds currently available for this purchase which was not included in the Fiscal Yeat 2021'22budget. 2 Page 62

RECOMMENDATION / CITY COUNCIL ACTION
This item is submitted, without recommendation, for City Council determination.
BACKGROUND / ISSUE
At the January 24,2023, City Council meeting, the Finance Director gave a mid-year budget review. As part of the review, the projections from the first quarter financial report were revisited. With expenditures expected to exceed total revenues at the end of the fiscal year, a year-end deficit of $165,000 is projected.
As part of the mid-year budget review, the City Council had the opportunity to discuss any proposed mid-year budget adjustments, and because the General Fund is projected to end the nr.ut year with a deficit, the only opportunity for an addition to the budget is to use the unassigned fund balance, or the "emergency reserve."
A motion was made by a councilmember to add two Community Service Officer positions to the FY 2022-23 budget and to appropriate funds from the unassigned fund balance to pay for these positions. The motion passed with a three-two vote. Per the City of Folsom Municipal Code, this action needs to be approved by resolution.
1 MEETING DATE: 2t2812023
AGENDA SECTION: Old Business
SUBJECT: ResolutionNo. 10998 - A Resolution Directing the Finance Director to Add Two Community Service Officer Positions to the Police Department Budget in the General Fund and
Appropriation of Funds
FROM: Finance Department
02/28/2023 Item No.12.
POLICY / RULE
Section 3.02.030, Subsection H of the Folsom Municipal Code states, in part, that "prior to the City Council making any supplemental appropriation the City Manager shall certifu that monies in excess of those estimated in the budget are available for appropriation. Any such supplemental appropriation shall be made for the fiscal year by resolution, up to the amount of any excess."
Section VI. Undesignated Fund Balances (Reserves), Subsection A. General Fund Reserve of the City's Financial Policies states that "the City shall maintain an Undesignated Fund Balance (reserve) for the General Fund of no less than 15% of the annual operating expenditures. The Undesignated Fund Balance will be used to provide for temporary financing for unanticipated extraordinary needs of an emergency nature; for example, costs related to a natural disaster or calamity, economic recession, or an unexpected liability created by Federal or State legislative action. Funds shall be appropriated from the Undesignated Fund Balance only after the Finance Director and the City Manager have prepared an analysis and presented to City Council. The analysis shall provide sufficient evidence to establish that the remaining Undesignated Fund Balance is adequate to offset potential downturns in revenue sources and provide a sufficient cash balance for daily financial needs. The analysis shall address the nature of the proposed expenditure and the revenue requirement in subsequent budget years.
Prior to allocating funds from the Undesignated Fund Balance, the City Council shall find that an emergency or extraordinary need exists to justi$ the use of these funds."
ANALYSIS
The initial cost of adding two Community Service Officers is $216,539 in salary, benefits and equipment. These are ongoing costs that will increase over time.
In order to amend the budget, the Council will need to:
1. Find that an emergency or extraordinary need exists to justifr the use of the unassigned fund balance
2. Authorize the additional positions
3. Appropriate revenue of equal value, and
4. Make appropriations to various salary, benefit and equipment accounts In deliberating such an amendment, the Council should consider the following:
1. You are doing so in isolation of considerations to other programs or capital projects.
2. There are known factors that will impact theFY2023-24budget. For example, (A) we know that the upcoming FY2023-24 budget must accommodate increases approved in collective bargaining agreements this year, (B) we knowthat departmental operating and maintenance costs have increased significantly in recent years due to inflation but the constrained budget has not allowed for standard CPI increases to be added to operating line items, (C) we were notified by Sacramento County that they are replacing their 2 Page 66
02/28/2023 Item No.12.
property tax software system and during the next two years the property tax administration fees the City pays to the County will increase, adding up to $375,000 a year in additional expenses and (D) we know that the Fire Department overtime budget is significantly underfunded and does not reflect the reality of department overtime costs.
3. Prudent budgeting would suggest that on-going costs should be funded by on-going revenue streams.
FINANCIAL IMPACT
During the January 24,2023 meeting the unassigned fund balance in the General Fund was suggested as a means of covering the costs of these positions. This is a one-time use of fund balance to pay for an on-going expense. This is not a good budget practice.
This action would be a planned use of fund balance and would reduce the unassigned fund balance by $216,539 or 0.94Yo.

RECOMMENDATION / CITY COUNCIL ACTION
Adopt Resolution No. 10996 - A Resolution Establishing a Landmark Tree Designation for a Valley Oak Tree in the Front Yard of 710 Sibley Street; and Adopt Resolution No. 10997 - A Resolution Establishing aLandmark Tree Designation for an Interior Live Oak Tree in Front of the Dermatology Center of Northem California at 192 Blue Ravine Road.
BACKGROUND / ISSUE
Trees are both community and environmental assets, unique in their ability to provide a multitude of benefits that appreciate over time. Longstanding trees contribute to the City of Folsom's character and "Distinctive by Nature" adage. One of the ways in which the City of Folsom shows recognition for particularly noteworthy specimens is through a landmark tree Registry. Landmark trees are trees that have been designated by the City Council as exceptional due to outstanding characteristics, special ecological contributions, or historical importance. 1 MEETING DATE: 212812023

SUBJECT: Landmark Tree Designation - City Arborist Recommendation to Establish Two New Landmark Tree Designations
i. Resolution No. 10996 - A Resolution Establishing a Landmark Tree Designation for a Valley Oak Tree in the Front Yard of 710 Sibley Street; and
ii. Resolution No. 10997 - A Resolution Establishing a Landmark Tree Designation for an Interior Live Oak Tree in Front of the Dermatology Center of Northern California at 192 Blue Ravine Road
FROM: Community Development Department
02/28/2023 Item No.13.
Prior to 2022, the City of Folsom landmark tree program had not added a new tree to the registry since 1999. However, at the urging of staff, last year the California Independent System Operator Corporation (California ISO) became the first applicant in 23 years to submit an application to the City for the establishment of a landmark tree. The subject tree was an impressive interior live oak located on the property, estimated to be at least 150 years old. The application was well received at the February 22"d,2022 City Council meeting; during which, council expressed great interest in revitalizing the landmark tree program and requested staff to look into bringing additional landmark tree proposals forward in the future.
In response to council's request, the City Arborist presented three individual trees and two gtorr.r of trees as potentiai candidates for landmark status at the October nth,2022 City Council meeting and asked for direction from council on whether staff should pursue designating landmarks on behalf of the tree owners. Council answered in favor of moving forward on the three individual trees, which included a 4l.5" valley oak (Quercus lobata) at 710 Sibley Street, a 53" interior live oak (Quercus wislizeni) at I92 Blue Ravine Road, and a
44.5" blue oak (Quercus douglasii) at785 Hana Way.
Following council direction, staff reached out to the owners of the abovementioned trees and have received authorization from the owners of 71 0 Sibley Street and 192 Blue Ravine Road to allow the City to move forward on landmark trees designations. As of the writing of this report, authorization has not been provided to move forward on the blue oak at785 Hana Way, but staff will continue making efforts to make contact with the owner on this matter.
The two proposed landmark trees are a heritage valley oak located in at 7 I 0 Sibley St, and a heritage interior live oak in a large parking lot the front yard of a single family residence
planter infront of 192 Blue Rovine Rd.

02/28/2023 Item No.13.
POLICY / RULE
Section 12.16.170 of the Folsom Municipal Code gives a private property owner or interested party the right to submit an application to the Community Development Department, requesting that the City Council establish by Resolution a tree or group of trees as a landmark tree(s). In order to designate a tree as a landmark tree, the City Council must find that the tree is a significant community benefit because it possesses one or more of the following attributes:
1) historical value,
2) outstanding habitat value,
3) unusual species, or
4) superior beauty.
The City Council, on its own motion and without the payment of the application fee, may also conunence the process of designating a landmark tree. If the owner of the proposed landmark tree is not the applicant, the Community Development Department shall notifu, by first-class mail, the owner of the proposed landmark tree thirty days before the hearing of the application.
The owner must provide written confirmation to the city that they support the application.
Section 12.16.170 of the Folsom Municipal Code (FMC) further specifies that, upon the request of a property owner, the city arborist may affange for a landmark tree to be inspected and a report prepared which assesses the tree's health and provides recommendations for maintenance. Section 12.16.160 grants utilization of the Tree Planting and Replacement Fund for maintenance of landmark trees at the recommendation of the city arborist.
ANALYSIS
In previous years staff had engaged with the owners of 710 Sibley Street and I92 Blue Ravine Road to bring attention to the particularly outstanding trees on their properties and to inform them of the city's landmark tree registry, the benefits of owning a landmark tree, and the process for garnering formal approval for a landmark tree designation. Although the owners had expressed interest in the process during these past interactions with staff, neither had followed through on bringing an application forward. However, both owners were very enthused at the prospect of the City acting as the applicant for landmark tree status on their behalf and forgoing the $280.00 application fee.
Native oaks over six inches in diameter at standard height (54" above grade) are protected but are not required to receive regular inspections or care in Folsom. However, Section
12.16.170(8) of the FMC allows for landmark trees to receive annual evaluations by the City Arborist upon the request of the property owner as well as maintenance services if the City Arborist deems such actions appropriate. The City Arborist has determined that three of the four findings in Section 12.16.170(AX2) apply to the valley oak at 710 Sibley Street and interior live oak at 192 Blue Ravine Road. The tree's applicability for each attribute is summarized below:
J Page 73
02/28/2023 Item No.13.
Historical Value
'Historical value' is a clear factor to consider for mature native oaks. With trunk diameters well beyond the qualiffing measurement required to achieve Heritage Tree status, the subject oak trees are both likely in excess of 150 years old, existing long before the establishment of the City of Folsom. The interior live oak tree at I92 Blue Ravine Road has a particularly noteworthy history as it was originally slated for removalin2002 with the development of the parcel. Fortunately, the developer ultimately agreed to redesign the site to accommodate the tree following cofirmunity advocacy for preservation. In recent years, the tree has had a bracing and cabling support system installed to manage a codominant stem crack and alleviate weight loads in the outer extensions of the canopy.
With encouragement from staff, the owners of both trees are in favor of selebrating these arboricultural monuments through the designation of Landmark Tree Status.
Outstanding Habitat Value
The design of the Dermatology Center parking lot includes an undisturbed natural area immediately surrounding the subject oak, allowing for many of Folsom's wildlife residents to take refuge in this tree. Interior live oak is a great food source, nesting site, and shelter for wildlife year-round. Additionally, this species is a host to several beneficial butterfly species such as California Sister (Adelpha bredowii califurnica), Dusky-Wing species (Erynnis), and Gold-Hunter's Hairstreak (Satyrium auretorum), which play key roles as pollinators in the greater Sacramento region.
Likewise, the impressive valley oak located in the front yard of the 710 Sibley Street single- family residence sports a similar host of beneficial pollinating insects and also serves as a potential stopover foraging habitat to neotropical migrant bird species like the black-throated gray warbler (Setophaga nigrescens) and the yellow warbler (Setophaga petechia).
Unusual Species
Interior live oak and valley oak are common species in Folsom.
Superior Beauty
The heritage valley oak at 710 Sibley Street has a unique and instantly recognizable form that sets it apart from others of its species. Many a photograph has been taken beneath its undulating and meandering limbs, which have been carefully manicured over the years to achieve its open, ornate branching structure.
The subject interior live oak at 192 Blue Ravine Road sports an open, picturesque crowrl when viewed from under the shade of its multiple large codominant stems. Higher up in the canopy, scaffold limbs extend out and divide into intricate branchlets that contribute to the trees rounded, dense silhouette. This form is typical of interior live oak; however, the exceptional size of this tree makes it a striking specimen in comparison to others of its species. 4 Page 74

02/28/2023 Item No.13.
CONCLUSION
Given the attributes summarized herein of the two subject trees, the City Arborist has determined that the findings for Landmark Tree designations have been met. As such, staff recommends that the City Council adopt Resolution 10996 - A Resolution Establishing a Landmark Tree Designation for a Valley Oak Tree in the Front Yard of 710 Sibley Street and Resolution No. 10997 - A Resolution Establishing a Landmark Tree Designation for an Interior Live Oak Tree in Front of the Dermatology Center of Northern Califomia at 192 Blue Ravine Road.
FINANCIA I,IMPACT
The current application fee for establishing a landmark tree designation is $280.00. By initiating the process for establishing landmark tree designations on behalf of private property owners, the city would waive this application fee.
Upon the request of the property owner, the City Arborist may inspect a landmark tree and prepare a report on the health and recommendations for necessary maintenance. Maintenance activities for landmark trees are funded by the City's Tree Planting and Replacement fund in accordance with FMC 12.16.160.
ENVIRONMENTAL REVIEW
Landmark tree Classification is an administrative action and not considered a project under the Califomia Environment Quality Act (CEQA) in accordance with CEQA Guidelines Section 15061(bX3). As a result, the action is exempt from environmental review

Valley Oak (qu"""u. tob"r") grows into the largest of North American oaks. It ranges over the hot interior valleys of California where there is a water table within reach of the roots. Valley Oaks grow quickly, reaching 20 feet in 5 years, and 40 feet in l0 years, and up to 60 feet in 20 years.
Mature specimens may attain an age of up to 600 years. Its thick, ridged bark is characteristic and evokes alligator hide. The sturdy trunk of the Valley oak may exceed two to three meters in diameter and its stature may approach 100 feet in height.
The branches have an irregular, spreading and arching appearance that produce a profound leafless silhoueffe in the clear winter sky. During Autumn leaves turn a yellow to light orange color but become brown during mid to late fall. In advancing age the branches assume a drooping characteristic. Its pewter-colored rippled bark adds to the attractive aesthetic of this species. Typically, leaves are five to ten centimeters in length and are roundly and deeply lobed.
The leaf width is approximately one half its length. Each leaf is matte green with an underneath pale green appearance; moreover, the leaf is covered with abundant softfuzz, yielding an almost velvety feeling. When a fresh leaf is rubbed or broken, an aromatic scent is exuded, evoking a forest odor. The wood is a dull brown approaching yellow. Over most of the range, acoms fall in October. A variety of mammals and birds eat them, including the Acorn Woodpecker, Western Scrub Jay, Yellow-billed Magpie, and California ground squinel. Like many oaks, Valley Oaks can tolerate wild fires. Although smaller individuals may be top-killed, most resprout from the root crown. Valley oak tolerates cool wet winters and hot dry summers, but requires abundant water. It is most abundant in rich deep soils of valley floors below 600 meters in elevation but can also be found at elevations up to 5,600 ft.. Valley oak is found in dense riparian forests, open foothill woodlands and valley savannas. Commonly associated trees are Coast live oak, Interior live oak, Blue oak, Black walnut, Califomia Sycamore and Ghost pine. Valley oak is distributed in the Califomia Central Valley and many smaller valleys such as the San Fernando Valley.

Interior Live Oak (qcr*'.*trtrrlt is a native tree or shrub in the Fagaceae (Beech) family.
Despite the common name it grows near the coast as well as in the Coast Ranges, central valley, and Sierra foothills. It tends to grow at elevations from sea level to 5,000 feet and is a major component of foothill woodland. This is a tall, broad tree with evergreen leaves. The leaves are thick, leathery, and may have either toothed or smooth margins. The long, nalrow, pointed acoms sit deep in the cap; the take two years to mature. There are two recognized Varieties: Var frutescens is a shrub form and is more common in the southern portion of the species'range, while var. wislizeni is the tree form. Due to its ultimate size, it requires a large garden but is a very rewarding tree to grow.

MEETING DATE: 2t2812023
AGENDA SECTION: New Business
SUBJECT: Introduction of the City of Folsom Water Vision and Direction to Staff on the Water Vision Contents and Community
Engagement Process
FROM: Environmental and Water Resources Department
RECOMMENDATION / CITY COUNCIT, ACTION
Staff recommends the City Council provide input and direction to the Environmental and Water Resources Director regarding the City of Folsom's Water Vision and community engagement process.
BACKGROUND / ISSUE
The Environmental and Water Resources (EWR) Department develops the City's Urban Water Management Plan, and this plan is updated every five years. On June 8,2021,the Folsom City Council approved Resolution No. 10643 adopting the City's 2020 Urban Water Management Plan (UWMP) and Water Shortage Contingency Plan. All urban water suppliers, either publicly or privately owned, serving municipal water to 3,000 customers or supplying more than 3,000 acre-feet annually, are required to prepare an UWMP. The UWMP is required for an urban water supplier to be eligible for California Department of Water Resources (DSfR) state grants, loans, and drought assistance.
The UWMP has been used as the primary water supply planning document for the City. The 2020 UWMP identifies the City's water supplies and demands in five-year increments to the year 2045.In an effort to develop more reliable, resilient, and sustainable water supplies for the City, EWR staff is recommending a Water Vision planning process to evaluate water supply alternatives to meet customer demands during drought or infrastructure outages, and to consider water supply impacts due to climate change. The goal is to evaluate the adequacy and reliability of the City's water supplies and to develop City Council policy to provide long-term guidance for managing these supplies.
I
02/28/2023 Item No.14.
The EWR Director is requesting feedback from City Council to provide input and direction regarding the City of Folsom's Water Vision contents and community engagement process.
POLICY / RULE
The 2035 General Plan outlines the necessary public facilities and services (PFS) to serve the needs of existing and future residents and businesses. The policies within Section 7 of the General Plan seek to ensure that PFS are provided and maintained, so that Folsom can continue to grow and thrive to2023 and beyond.
Folsom General Plan 2035, Goal PFS 3.l/Objective 3.1 .5 - Coordinate with regional and sub- regional agencies to ensure the reliability of an adequate water supply.
Folsom General Plan 2035, Goal PFS 3.l/Objective 3.I.7 - Provide an adequate supply of water for all users in Folsom now and in the future.
Folsom General Plan 2035, Goal PFS 3.l/Objective 3.1.8 - Require water resources be developed in coordination with local flood management, water conservation, and groundwater agencies.
Folsom General Plan 2035, Goal PFS 3.I/Objective 3.1.11 - Ensure a resilient water storage and distribution system that can rapidly recover in the event ofa disaster.
ANALYSIS
The intent of the Water Vision is to initiate a City-wide discussion and an opportunity for public participation in the planning of Folsom's future water supply. This effort will also include regular discussions with the Utility Commission and City Council as needed. EWR is ,"co--"nding the development of a focused stakeholder group consisting of 15-20 members of the community. EWR proposes the program contents below that would be presented to the stakeholder group and the public in various workshops for public comment, feedback, and discussion.
. City water supplies and contracts.
o City's current and future water use.
r Statewide landscape regarding water usage.
o Potential threats to the Crty's water supplies.
. Opportunities for water supply reliability, resiliency, and redundancy The following identifies the objectives of Folsom Water Vision. o Develop reliable, resilient, and sustainable water supply opportunities. o Provide the opportunity for public participation and education related to the Crty's water supplies.
2 Page 94
02/28/2023 Item No.14.
Develop a targeted stakeholder group to provide feedback on the development of goals, objectives, and water supply opportunities.
Update the Utility Commission and City Council during the process of developing the City's Water Vision.
Develop a City-wide Water Vision based on City Council policy and direction.
Below is a potential list of participants for the stakeholder group. Staff recommends that no more than 20 participants be included.
o UtilityCommissioner.
o PlanningCommissioner.
o Parks and Recreation Commissioner.
o Folsom Cordova Unified School District representative. . Folsom Lake College representative.
o Medical field representative.
o Choose Folsom representative.
o Environmental interest representative (Siena Club, ECOS, Friends of the River). o Citizen groups.
o Aerojet/Rocketdyne representative.
o Development Community representative.
o Large water user representative (Intel, Kikkoman, Gekkeikan). . Landscape community.
Staff is specifically seeking direction on the following questions l. Are the listed contents appropriate for the Folsom Water Vision process?
2. Does the City Council desire to include a stakeholder group in the Water Vision process?
3. If so, what make-up of community stakeholder group is desired?
4. Is there a cap City Council would like to apply on the amount of participants for a stakeholder group?
5. Does the City Council desire councilmember (up to two) participation on the stakeholder group?
6. Would City Council like to bring this item back to a future City Council meeting for further discussion to confirm Council's water supply goals prior to developing the stakeholder group?
Staff anticipates that the City will issue a Request for Proposals to facilitate stakeholder involvement, to evaluate current and future water supplies and demands from the City's2020 UWMP, to develop water supply planning objectives, analyze the City's water supplies and demands under climate change conditions to identifu water shortages, if any, to develop and analyze future water supply portfolios, and to develop an implementation strategy based on policy direction from City Council.
