MEETING DATE: 612712023
AGENDA SECTION: Consent Calendar
SUBJECT: Resolution No. 11058 - A Resolution Authorizing the City Manager to Execute an Agreement with Loggers Unlimited Inc. for Shaded Fuel Break Creation and Ladder Fuel Removal
F'ROM: Parks and Recreation Department

RECOMMENDATION / COUNCIL ACTION
Staff recommends the City Council approve Resolution No. 11058 - A Resolution Authorizingthe City Manager to Execute an Agreement with Loggers Unlimited for Shaded Fuel Break Creation and Ladder Fuel Removal.

BACKGROUND / ISSUE
The City of Folsom is responsible for the maintenance and servicing of approximately 1,100 acres of City owned open space across 70 different sites. Of that 1,100 acres, 335 acres have been identified to contain ladder fuel (low growth in trees) which should be removed to establish the necessary fire breaks. Traditionally, the City has completed annual weed abatement to address seasonal grasses but has yet to implement a program to address other combustible vegetation that exist from low growth in trees to establish defensible space to adjacent structures. This project is a continuation of the first phase of a proposed 3-year program to systematically address the City owned open spaces and establish tolerances so in subsequent years less work will be required to address ladder fuel and thus the annual, more routine work, will be more focused on the abatement of annual grasses and the maintenance of established fuel breaks. Once completed there will be a defined separation between our developed and wildland areas.

POLICY / RULE
In accordance with Chapter 2.36.090 (AXl) and 2.36.120 of the Folsom Municipal Code, professional services are not subject to competitive sealed bidding requirements, and those costing $70,952 or greater shall be awarded by the City Council. ,1

06/27/2023 Item No.8.

ANALYSIS
On May 1,2023, the Parks and Recreation Department advertised a Request for Proposal (RFP) for the creation of shaded fuel breaks and ladder fuel removal. The RFP was posted on ClPlist.com as well as the City of Folsom website with responses due back to the City by 4:00 pm May 19, 2023. An internal reviewteam was assembled of Parks and Recreation Staff. The criteria for ranking the proposals were based on the following areas: relevant experience and staffing, project understanding, price, and the ability to complete the work in the allocated time frame. In total four responses were received (Loggers Unlimited Inc., Terra West, Bella Wildfire & Forestry, and Tailored Tree) and after reviewing their responses, and compiling scores, staff concluded that Loggers Unlimited Inc. demonstrated they were the most qualified based on the advertised scoring criteria. The total 3-year cost of the proposed services for Loggers Unlimited was $610,134.43, the average cost of the four proposals was $2,377,567.07.

FINANCIAL IMPACT
Funds for this project are currently budgeted in the Fiscal Year 2023-24 across several Funds including Lighting and Landscaping Districts, Community Facilities Districts, and the General Fund (see Fiscal Year (FY) 2023-24 cost breakdown below). The term of the contract will be for three years and funding for subsequent years beyond Fiscal Year 2023-24 willbe addressed during the annual budget process. The Fiscal Year 2023-24 corftract amount is approximately $250,000 with 75Yo of that being paid through a grant we were recently awarded through the Federal Emergency Management Agency (FEMA) and California Office of Emergency Services (CalOES). The breakdown for all three years (phases) is included below as well, lastly all future phases will have the same 75Yo grant match. The scope of services for this RFP read: "This agreement will commence on the start date July 1,2023 and will be worked continuously until all sites have been completed or all funding for that portion of work has been expended." Additional funding is being sought through grants and there is some ongoing funding in the general fund for this project. Future year costs may be less than listed below if additional grant funding is not secured.

On March 28,2023 ,the City Council approved Resolution No. 1 1 014 - A Resolution Directing the Preparation of Engineer's Report for the Following Landscaping and Lighting Districts for Fiscal Year 2023-2024 American River Canyon North, American River Canyon North No. 2, American River Canyon North No. 3, Blue Ravine Oaks, Blue Ravine Oaks No. 2, Briggs Ranch, Broadstone, Broadstone No. 4, Broadstone Unit No. 3, Cobble Ridge, Cobble Hills Ridge IllReflections II, Folsom Heights, Folsom Heights No. 2, Hannaford Cross, Lake Natoma Shores, Los Cerros, Natoma Station, Natoma Valley, Prairie Oaks Ranch, Prairie Oaks Ranch No. 2, Prospect Ridge, Sierra Estates, Silverbrook, Steeplechase, The Residences at American River Canyon, The Residences at American River Canyon II, Willow Creek Estates East, Willow Creek Estates East No. 2, Willow Creek Estates South, and Willow Springs Landscaping and Lighting Assessment Districts within the City of Folsom for FY 2023-24.

The attached resolution approves the Preliminary Engineer's Report for the thirty districts, declares the continued assessment for each district and sets the date of the public hearing for final approval of the Engineer's Report. The attached Preliminary Engineer's Report for FY 2023-24 addresses all thirfy districts in one report and is submitted for City Council review and approval. Included within the report are the following for each district:

A. Plans and specifications for the maintenance of the improvements (on file in the Parks and Recreation Department).

B. Cost estimates of maintaining the improvements.

C. Diagram of the assessment districts.

D. Estimated costs for maintaining the improvements.

Under the provision of Section 54954.6 of the Government Code, each year a public meeting and public hearing are to be held on the levy of assessments. The attached resolution sets the public hearing for the July 25,2023 Cily Council meeting.

POLICY / RULE
The City Council is required to adopt a resolution approving the Preliminary Engineer's Report as part of the annual assessment process pursuant to Article 4 of Chapter 1 of Part 2 of Division 15 of the Streets and Highways Code (Landscaping and Lighting Act of 1972). The City Council is also required to adopt a resolution declaring intention to levy and collect 2 Page 176
06/27/2023 Item No.9.
assessments pursuant to Section 54954.6 of the Government Code and Section 22624 of the Streets and Highways Code.

ANALYSIS
The attached Preliminary Engineer's Report (Attachment 2) prepared by the Engineer of Record, NBS Government Financing Group, is for all thirty Landscaping and Lighting Districts for FY 2023-24. This report (one for each district and combined into one document) is submitted for City Council review and has been prepared in accordance with the Streets and Highways Code and includes the following: plans and specifications, estimated costs and budgets, method of apportionment, the proposed assessment for FY 2023-24, and the assessment diagram.

Assessment to Properties
The rate of assessment to properties within each district is shown in the table provided under the financial impact section of this staff report. The provided table also shows the maximum authorized rate of assessment, and the CPI or inflator if applicable on a district-by-district basis. We also provided the not to exceed CPI percentage for this fiscal year for reference.

Installment Summarv
The installment summaries describe short-term installments collected pursuant to Section 22660 of the Streets and Highways Code to meet the districts' future repair and replacement needs anticipated to occur within an approximate five-year time frame, as well as long-term installments collected to meet those future needs anticipated to occur within 5 to 30-year time frames.

Comparison to Last Year
District budgets for this upcoming year will continue focusing on improvements and restorations that enhance each district's commitment to water conservation, prolonging assets life, drought tolerant landscaping improvements, fire safety, and tree stewardship. As such, some districts will be retrofitting and centralizing inigation controllers, inventorying street trees, changing out plant materials to water wise varietals, and converting over to LED Streetlights. Many of the City's districts are over 20 years old and do not have escalators built into their rates to track with cost-of-living increases and economic changes. As such, districts being monitored for future outreach regarding a new assessment overlay district are Briggs Ranch (32 years old), and Hannaford Cross (32 years old), and Cobble Ridge II / Reflections Il (29 years old). Lastly the City will be continuing outreach for an increase in Natoma Station in the 2023-2024 Fiscal Years.

2 INTRODUCTION

2.1 Background
The City has previously formed 30 Landscaping and Lighting Districts to provide funding for the installation, maintenance and servicing of landscaping, sidewalks, fences, walls, parks, open space, signage, soundwalls, street lighting, and other public improvements in the City. The 30 Landscape and Lighting Districts are as follows:
. American River Canyon North o Los Cerros

. American River Canyon North No. 3 . Natoma Valley
r Blue Ravine Oaks . Prairie Oaks Ranch

r Folsom Heights No. 2 . Willow Creek Estates East No' 2 . Hannaford Cross o Willow Creek Estates South
o Lake Natoma Shores o Willow Springs

2.2 Process for Annual Assessment
The Districts were formed and assessments were established in previous fiscal years. As required by the procedures specified in the Act, an Engineer's Report must be prepared on an annual basis which contains a full and detailed description of the improvements, the boundaries of the assessment district and any zones therein, and the proposed assessments upon assessable lots and parcels of land within the assessment district. The Engineer's Report may also identify future planned projects.

The City Council must also annually adopt a resolution of intention which:
o Declares the intention of the City Council to levy and collect assessments within the assessment district for the fiscal year stated therein'
. Generally describes the existing and proposed improvements and any substantial changes proposed to be made in existing improvements.

City of Folsom
Landscaping and Lighting Districts - Fiscal Year 2023/24 Enginee/s ReportGINBS

06/27/2023 Item No.9.
. Refers to the assessment district by its distinctive designation and indicates the general location of the assessment district.
. Refers to the report ofthe engineer, on file with the City Clerk, for a full and detailed description of the improvements, the boundaries ofthe assessment district and any zones therein, and the proposed assessments upon assessable lots and parcels of land within the assessment district. o Gives notice of the time and place for public hearing by the City Council on the levy of the proposed assessment.
. States whether the assessment is proposed to increase from the previous year' lf the assessments are to be levied in the same or lesser amounts than the maximum assessment allowed, the City Clerk shall give notice of the public hearing by causing the resolution of intention to be published at least 10 days prior to the date of the public hearing. Any interested person may, prior to the conclusion of the public hearing, file a written protest which shall state all grounds of objection. The protest shall contain a description sufficient to identify the property owned by the property owner filing the protest.

During the course or upon conclusion of the hearing, the City Council may order changes in any of the matters provided in the report, including changes in the improvements, any zones within the assessment district, and the proposed diagram or the proposed assessment. lf the assessment to be levied exceeds the maximum assessment allowed, the City must comply with the procedures specified in Article Xlll D and Proposition 218.

The City Council, upon conclusion of the public hearing, must then adopt a resolution confirming the diagram and assessment, either as originally proposed or as changed by it. The adoption ofthe resolution shall constitute the levy of an assessment for the fiscal year referred to in the assessment. lf confirmed, the assessments would be submitted to the County Auditor Controller for inclusion on the property tax roll.

2.3 LegislativeContext
ln 1996, California voters adopted Proposition 218, known as the "Right to Vote on Taxes Act," which added Articles Xlll C and Xlll D to the California Constitution. Article Xlll D established new substantive and procedural requirements on agencies for levying assessments, being levies on real property by an agency for a special benefit conferred upon the real property. "special benefit" is defined in Article Xlll D as "a particular and distinct benefit over and above general benefits conferred on a real property located in the district or to the public at large."
Article Xlll D imposes five basic substantive requirements on assessments:
o All parcels that will have a special benefit conferred upon them and upon which an assessment will be imposed must be identified;
. The general benefits must be distinguished from the special benefits conferred on the parcels; . The proportionate special benefit derived by each identified parcel must be determined in relationship to the entirety of the capital cost of a public improvement, the maintenance and operation expenses of a public improvement, or the cost of the property related service being provided;
City of Folsom
Landscaping and Lighting Districts - Fiscal ye{ 2023/24 Enginee/s ReportQNBS

06/27/2023 Item No.9.
. The amount assessed to a parcel must not exceed the reasonable cost ofthe proportional special benefit conferred on that parcel and must not include any costs attributable to the general benefit; and
r parcels within a district that are owned or used by any agency, the State of California or the United States shall not be exempt from assessment unless the agency can demonstrate by clear and convincing evidence that those publicly owned parcels in fact receive no special benefit.

Since the initial passage of Proposition 218, several court rulings have helped provide context and direction with respect to the procedures and requirements of Article Xlll D for levying assessments. Several of the key concepts from these rulings are summarized below.

GENERAL BENEFIT
Article Xlll D requires an agency to separate the general benefits from the special benefits conferred on the identified parcels because only special benefits are assessable.

The Court of Appeal in Golden Hills Neighborhood Assn., lnc. v. City of Son Diego (2O771, ("Golden Hills"l clarified this concept by stating, "separotion and quontification of generol and special benefits must be accomplished by apportioning the cost of a service or improvement between the two and assessing property owners onty for the portion of the cost representing special benefits." The Court of Appeal in Beutz v. County of Riverside (2O!O) (" Beutz"l noted that the trial court took judicial notice of the Legislative Analyst's Office pamphlet titled "Understanding Proposition 218" which states an agency must, "estimate the omount of special benelit landowners would receive from the proiect or service, as well as the amount of 'generol benefit.'This step is needed becouse Proposition 278 allows local government to recoup from ossessments only tfie proportionate shore of cost to provide the speciol benefit."
The Court in Eeutz furthered this idea staling, "separating the general t'rom the special benefits of a public improvement project and estimoting the quantity of each in relation to the other is essential if an assessment is to be limited to the special benefits."
The Court of Appeal in Siticon Valley Taxpayers' Association lncorporated v. Santa Claro County Open Space Authority (20O8) ("SWA"Iclarified that general benefits are not restricted to benefits conferred only on persons and property outside the assessment district but can include benefits both conferred on real property located in the district or to the public at large. The "public at large" includes all members of the public, including those who Iive, work, and shop within the district, and not simply transient visitors.

The Court of Appeal again reiterated the need to separate, quantify and apportion costs to general benefits from the improvements in Brood Beach Geologic Hozard Abatement Disttict v 31506 Victoria Point LLC (2022\, statini, "The District cites no authority, and we are oware of none, suggesting thot on agency's subjective intent determines the need to occount t'or general benefits." BENEFIT.BASED NOT COST.BASED
ln Town of Tiburon v. Bonander (2009) ("Tiburon"), the Court of Appeal clarified the idea that assessments must be apportioned based upon benefit ratherthan cost. The Court stated, "Proportionate special benefit is the basis upon which a project's total ossessable costs ore opportioned omong parcels within an assessment district."
City of Folsom
Landscaping and Lighting Districts - Fisc alYear 2023/24 EnEinee/s Report 4(DNBS

06/27/2023 Item No.9.

The assessment of a particular property cannot be based on the relative cost of the improvements to the property, but rather on the special benefit conferred on such property. The Courtin Tiburon also stated, "an assessment represents the entirety ol the cost of the improvement or property-related service, Iess ony omount qttributabte to general benefits (which moy not be ossessed), allocated to individuol properties in propottion to the relative special benefit conferred on the property."

MEASURING AND APPORTIONING SPECIAL BENEFIT
The Court inTiburon acknowledged the difficulty oftrying to precisely assign and measure special benefit, stating, "Any attempt to clossify special benefits conJerred on particular properties and to assign relotive weights to those benefits will necessarily involve some degree of imprecision'" The Court in Tiburon went on to say that a formula assigning equal weight to different special benefits "may be a legally justifiable approach to meosuring ond apportioning special benefits, [but] lt is not necessarily the only volid approach. Whichever approoch is taken to measuring and apportioning special benefits; however, it must be both defensible ond consistently applied." city of Folsom

3. PLANS AND SPECIFICATIONS
The work and improvements proposed to be undertaken by the City and the cost thereof paid from the continuation ofthe annual assessment provide special benefit to parcels within the Districts as defined in the Method of Assessment herein. Consistent with the Act, the Districts' work and improvements are generally described as follows:

The installation, maintenance and servicing of turf, ground cover, shrubs and trees, irrigation systems, drainage systems, street lighting, fencing, soundwalls, sidewalks, monuments, statuary, fountains, water quality ponds, park facilities, open space, bike trails, walkways, drainage swales, other ornamental structures and facilities, entry signage, street pavers, art work, and monuments, as well as all necessary appurtenances, labor, materials, supplies, utilities, and equipment, as applicable, for property owned or maintained by the city. Any plans and specifications for these improvements have been filed with the City and are incorporated herein by reference.
"Maintain" or "maintenance" means the furnishing of services and materials for theordinaryand usual maintenance, operation, and servicing of any improvement, including:
a) Repair, removal, or replacement of all or any part of any improvement. b) providing for the life, growth, health, and beauty of landscaping, including cultivation, irrigation, trimming, spraying, fertilizing, or treating for disease or injury. c) The removal of trimmings, rubbish, debris, and other solid waste. d) Thecleaning,sandblasting,andpaintingofwallsandotherimprovementstoremoveorcover graffiti.
"Service" or "servicing" means the furnishing of:
a) Electric current or energy, gas, or other illuminating agent for any public lighting facilities or for the lighting or operation of any other improvements.
b) Waterfortheirrigationofanylandscaping,theoperationofanyfountains,orthemaintenanceof any other imProvements.
plans and Specifications for the improvements are incorporated by reference and made a part ofthis Engineer's Report. The Plans and Specifications for each District are on file with the City and are available for public inspection.
lncluded is a separate but integral tool: the City of Folsom Landscaping and Lighting District lmprovement Plan ("lmprovement Plan"). lt is a separate planning document that identifies the type of upcoming improvements (e.g., re-landscaping a corridor or painting a wall); the estimated cosU any installments required for short-term (less than five years) and/or long term (not greater than 30 years) improvements, and the approximate schedule for completion of the improvements. The City intends to continually update and revise the lmprovement Plan throughout each year to reflect the current status of improvement projects, budget updates and/or changes in priorities.
city of Folsom
Landscaping and Lighting Districts - Fiscal \ear 2023/24 Enginee/s ReportCINBS

06/27/2023 Item No.9.

The concept of the lmprovement Plan arose from the City's commitment to comply with the requirements of the Act as well as produce a valuable instrument that enables the City to schedule, prioritize, and plan for needed maintenance and servicing improvements in the districts. lt also serves as a user-friendly means for members ofthe public to review and understand the use of the assessment revenues generated from each District.

The assessment proceeds from each District will be exclusively used for improvements within that District plus incidental expenses. Reference is made to Section 4 - Estimate of Costs and Budgets, Section 7 - Budgets, and the additional plans and specifications, including District specific expenditure and improvement plans, which are on file with the City.

5. METHOD OF APPORTIONMENT
The following section of the Engineer's Report includes an explanation of the benefits to be derived from the installation, maintenance, and servicing of the improvements throughout the Districts, as well as a description ofthe assessment methodology used to apportion the total assessment to properties within each District.

The previous annua! Engineer's Reports were prepared by a different engineer oI rccord ond specific Ionguoge from the prior yeor's Engineefs Report has been referenced to describe the Method ol Apportionment within the following section of this report' The Districts consist of all assessor parcels within the boundaries as defined by the Assessment Diagram included with this report. Further, all assessor parcels, including all privately and publicly owned parcels, are identified by Assessor Parcel Numbers listed within the included assessment levy roll. The method used for apportioning the assessment is based on the proportional special benefits to be derived bythe properties in the Districts over and above general benefits conferred on real property orto the public at large.

The apportionment of special benefit is a two-step process: the first step is to identify the types of special benefit arising from the improvements, and the second step is to allocate the assessments to property based on the estimated relative special benefit for each type of property.

5.1 Discussion of Benefit
ln summary, the assessments can only be levied based on the special benefit to property. This benefit is received by property over and above any general benefits. With reference to the requirements for assessments, Section 22573 of the Act states:
"The net amount to be assessed upon lands within an ossessment district may be apportioned by ony formulo or method which foirly distributes the net omount omong all assessable lots or porcels in proportion to the estimoted benefits to be received by each such lot or parcel from the improvements."
Proposition 218, as codified in Article Xlll D ofthe California Constitution, has confirmed that assessments must be based on the special benefit to property and the assessment must not exceed the reasonable cost ofthe proportional benefit upon the assessed parcel:
"No ossessment shall be imposed on any parcel which exceeds the reasonoble cost of the proportional special benelit conferred on that parcel." The following benefit categories summarize the types of special benefit to residential, commercial, industrial, and other lots and parcels resulting from the improvements to be provided with the assessment proceeds. These categories of special benefits are supported by various California legislation and supporting studies which describe the types of special benefit received by property from improvements such as those proposed by the Districts. These types of special benefit are summarized as follows:
. Proximity to improved landscaped areas within each District.

I Access to improved landscaped areas within each District.

City of Folsom
Landscaping and Lighting Districts - Fiscal Yeat 2023/24 Enginee/s Report\-)NBS 19

06/27/2023 Item No.9.
. lmproved views within each District.
. Extension of property's outdoor areas and green spaces for properties within close proximity to the improvements.
. Creation of individual lots for residential and commercial use that, in absence of the District and the services provided by the District, would not have been created.

The SWA decision provides enhanced clarity to the definitions of special benefits to properties in three distinct areas: proximity, expanded or improved access, and views. The SVTA decision also clarifies that a special benefit is a service or improvement that provides a direct advantage to a parcel, and that indirect or derivative advantages resulting from the overall public benefits from a service or improvement are general benefits. The SWA decision also provides specific guidance that park improvements are a direct advantage and special benefit to property that is proximate to a park improved by an assessment:

The characterization of o benefit may depend on whether the parcel receives o direct advontage from the improvement (e.g., proximity to a park) or receives an indirect, derivative advantage resulting from the overall public benelits of the improvement (e.g., general enhancement of the district's Noperty volues).
proximity, improved access and views, in addition to the other special benefits listed above, further strengthen the basis of these assessments.

The special benefits from the improvements are further detailed below.

PROXIMITY TO IMPROVED LANDSCAPED AREAS WITHIN THE DISTRIC'T Only the specific properties within close proximity to the improvements are included in each District.

Therefore, property in each District enjoys unique and valuable proximity and access to the improvements that the public at large and property outside of each District do not share. ln absence of the assessments, the improvements would not be provided and the landscaping areas within each District would be degraded due to insufficient funding for maintenance, upkeep and repair.

Therefore, the assessments provide improvements that are over and above what otherwise would be provided. lmprovements that are over and above what otherwise would be provided do not by themselves translate into special benefits but when combined with the unique proximity and access enjoyed by parcels in the Districts, they provide a direct advantage and special benefit to property within each District.

ACCESS TO IMPROVED TANDSCAPED AREAS WITHIN THE DISTRICT Since the parcels in each District are the only parcels that enjoy close access to the improvements, they directly benefit from the unique close access to improved landscaping areas that are provided by the assessments. This is a direct advantage and special benefit to property in that District.

IMPROVED VIEWS WITHIN THE DISTRICT
The District, by maintaining these landscaped areas, provides improved views to properties in each District.

The properties in a District enjoy close and unique proximity, access and views of the improvements.

Therefore, the improved and protected views provided by the assessments are another direct and tangible advantage that is uniquely conferred upon the property within each District.

City of Folsom
Landscaping and Lighting Districts - Fisc al \eat 2023/24 Enginee/s ReportC)NBS 20

06/27/2023 Item No.9.

EXTENSION OF A PROPERTY'S OUTDOOR AREAS AND GREEN SPACES FOR PROPERTIES WITHIN CLOSE

PROXIMITY TO THE IMPROVEMENTS
ln large part, because it is generally cost prohibitive to provide large open land areas in development projects, the residential, commercial, and other benefiting properties in each District do not have large outdoor areas and green spaces. The landscaped areas within each District provide additional outdoor areas that serve as an effective extension of the land area for properties that are in close proximity to the improvements. The improvements, therefore, provide an important, valuable, and desirable extension of usable land area, which confers a direct advantage and special benefit to properties in close proximity to the improvements.

CREATION OF INDIVIDUAT IOTS FOR RESIDENTIAL AND COMMERCIAL USE THAT, IN ABSENCE OF THE

ASSESSMENTS, WOULD NOT HAVE BEEN CREATED
Typically, the original owner/developer of the property within the Districts can petition the City to establish the assessment districts. As parcels were sold, new owners were informed of the assessments through the title reports, and in some cases, through the Department of Real Estate "White Paper" reports that the parcels were subject to assessment. The purchase of property was also an "agreement" to pay the assessment. ln absence ofthe assessments, the lots within the Districts would probably not have been subdivided and created. These lots, and the improvements they support, are a special benefit to the property owners.

5.2 General versus Special Benefit
The assessments from the Districts are used to fund improvements and increased levels of maintenance to the grounds adjoining the properties in the Districts. ln absence of those Districts, such improvements would not be provided, and the properties would not have been subdivided and improved to the same extent. The Districts were specifically proposed for formation to provide additional and improved improvements, and services in the Districts. ln absence ofthe assessments, these public resources could not be created, and revenues would not be available for their continued maintenance and improvement.

Therefore, the assessments solely provide special benefit to property in the Districts over and above the general benefits conferred by the general facilities ofthe City.

Although these improvements may be available to the general public at large because the Districts are accessible by members of the public, the improvements within each District were specifically designed, located, and created to provide additionat and improved public resources for property inside the Districts, and not the public at large. Other properties that are either outside the Districts or within the Districts and not assessed, do not enjoy the unique proximity, access, views, and other special benefit factors described previously. These improvements are of special benefit to properties located within the Districts because they provide a direct advantage to properties in the Districts that would not be provided in absence of the assessments.

5.3 Quantification of General Benefit
Although the analysis used to support these assessments concludes thatthe benefits are solely special, as described above, consideration is made for the suggestion that a portion of the benefits are general.

General benefits cannot be funded by District assessments and the funding must come from other sources.

The maintenance and servicing of the improvements is also partially funded, directly and indirectly from other sources including the City, the County of Sacramento, and the State of California. This funding comes in the form of grants, development fees, special programs, and general funds, as well as direct maintenance and servicing offacilities (e.g., curbs, gutters, streets, drainage systems, and other infrastructure maintenance items such as pond clean outs and street sweeping, etc.)' This funding from other sources more than compensates for general benefits, if any, received by the properties within the Districts.

STEP 1: CALCULATION OF THE GENERAT BENEFIT
The general benefits from the assessment may be quantified as illustrated in the following table Calculation of General Benefit{11

(1) Per the prior Enginee/s Report.

As a result, the City will contribute at least 1.5% of the total budget from sources other than the assessment. The contribution offsets any general benefits from the assessment services.

STEP 2: CALCUIATION OF CURRENT GENERAL BENEFIT CONTRIBUTION FROM CITY pursuant to the prior Engineer's Report, the overall general benefit contribution is the sum of the following components:

The City owns, maintains, rehabilitates, and replaces curb and gutter along the border of the Districts improvements. This curb and gutter maintenance serves to support, contain, retain, manage irrigation flow and growth, and provide a boundary for the improvements. The contribution from the City toward general benefit from the maintenance, rehabititation and replacement of the curb gutter is conservatively estimated to be 1%.

The City owns and maintains storm drainage systems along the border of the Districts improvements. This system serves to prevent flooding and associated damage to the improvements, and manage urban runoff, including local pollutants loading from the improvements. The contribution from the City towards Seneral benefit from the maintenance and operation ofthe local storm drainage systems is conservatively estimated to be 1%.
city of Folsom
Landscaping and Lighting Districts - Fiscal\eat 2023/24 Enginee/s ReportS)NBS 22

06/27/2023 Item No.9.

The City owns and maintains local public streets along the border of the Districts improvements. These public streets provide access to the improvements for its enjoyment as well as efficient maintenance' The contribution from the City towards general benefit from the maintenance of local public streets is conservatively estimated to contribute 1%.

The improvements were constructed by the original owner/developer(s) as a condition of development.

The value ofthe construction ofthe improvements can be quantified and monetized as an annuity. Since this construction was performed and paid by non-assessment funds, this "annuity'' can be used to offset general benefit costs and is conservatively estimated to contribute 25%.

Therefore, the total general benefit that is conservatively quantified at 1.5% is more than offset by the total non-assessment contribution towards general benefit of 28%.

5.4 Method of Apportionment
The second step in apportioning assessments is to determine the relative special benefit for each property.

This process involves determining the relative benefit received by each property in relation to a single- family home, or, in other words, on the basis of Single-Family Equivalents (SFE). This SFE methodology is commonly used to distribute assessments in proportion to estimated special benefit and is generally recognized as providing the basis for a fair and appropriate distribution of assessments. For the purposes ofthis Engineer's Report, all properties are assigned a SFE value, which is each property's relative benefit in relation to a single-family home on one parcel. ln this case, the "benchmark" property is the single family detached dwelling which is assigned one SFE.

5.5 AssessmentApportionment
The improved properties within the Districts consist primarily of single family, multi-family, commercial and non-assessed parcels, with the vast majority being single family parcels. Since all single-family parcels in the Districts are deemed to have good proximity to the improvements, such single-family properties receive similar benefit from the proposed improvements and are assigned 1.0 SFE unit. The special benefit assignment for other types of properties is further defined as follows' Many ofthe Districts contain only single-family residences and non-assessed properties such as parks and green spaces. These districts are:

AMERICAN RIVER CANYON NORTH NO. 3
There are 1,022 residential lots in American River Canyon North No. 3. Each assessable parcel receives a special and direct benefit from the improvements in the District. Since the District is comprised of residential single family improved properties and all properties have good proximity to the improvements, all assessable parcels are estimated to benefit equally from the improvements associated with the District, and the costs associated with the improvements are apportioned equally to all parcels on the basis of current or proposed dwelling units. Each parcel is assigned sFE units relative to the number of current or proposed dwelling units on the parcel.

There are three Zones of Benefit within American River Canyon North District No. 3. ln Zone A each single family parcel is assigned 1.OO SFE, in Zone B, each single-family parcel is assigned 0.83 SFE, and in Zone C each single-family parcel is assigned 0.50 SFE. Properties in Zone B and Zone C receive lower benefit units because they currently pay for common open space areas within their zone. ln 2007, when the American River Canyon North District No. 3 was formed, an analysis of the associated landscaping improvements was performed to determine the relative benefit to each zone from this new assessment. lt was estimated that Zone B receives !7% of the special benefit, and Zone C receives 50% of the special benefit.

The population density factors for the area in Sacramento County encompassing Broadstone No. 4, as depicted in the following table, provide the basis for determining the SFE factors for residential properties.

Using the total population in a certain property type in the area from the 2010 Census and dividing it by the total number of such househotds, finds that approximately 2.91 persons occupy each single-family residence, whereas an average of 2.12 persons occupy each condominium. The ratio of 2.91 people on average for a single-family residence and2.72 people per dwelling unit in a condominium unit results in a population density equivalent of 0.73 for condominiums. Next, the relative building areas are factored into the analysis because special benefits are related to the average size of a property, in addition to average population densities. For a condominium, this calculation results in an SFE factor of 0.40 per dwelling unit.

A similar calculation is used for the SFE assignments for other residential property types. Broadstone No. 4 residential properties are assessed per the original formation documents, per the table below:

Broadstone No' 4 Residential Density and Assessment Factors (1) Propertiesinexcessof20unitsareassessed0.22SFEsperunitforthefirst20unitsand0.l0 SFES per each additional unit in excess of 20 units.

Commercial/lndustrial
SFE values for commercial and industrial land uses are based on the equivalence of special benefit on a land area basis between single family residential property and the average commercial/industrial property.

The SFE values for various commercial and industrial land uses are further defined by using average employee densities because the special benefit factors described previously can be measured by the average number of people who work at commerciaUindustrial properties. ln order to determine employee density factors, the findings from the San Diego Association of Governments Traffic Generators Study (SANDAG Study) are used because these findings were approved by the State Legislature as being a good representation of the average number of employees per acre of land area for commercial and industrial properties. As determined by the SANDAG Study, the average number of employees per acre for commercial and industrial property is 24. ln comparison, the average number of people residing in a single-family home in the area is 2.91. Since the average lot size for a single-family home in Broadstone No. 4 is approximately 0.20 acres, the average number of residents per acre of residential property is 14.55.

The employee density per acre is generally 1.65 times the population density of single-family residential property per acre (24 employees per acre / 14.55 residents per acre). Therefore, the average employee density can be used as the basis for allocating benefit to commercial/ industrial property since a commercial/industrial property with 4.8 employees receives generally similar special benefit to a residential property with 1 resident. This factor of equivalence of benefit between 1 resident to 4.8 City of Folsom

employees is the basis for allocating commercial/industrial benefit. The table below shows the average employees per acre of land area or portion thereof for commercial and industrial properties and lists the relative SFE factors per quarter acre for properties in each land use category' Commercial and industrial properties in excess of 5 acres generally involve uses that are more land intensive relative to building areas and number of employees (lower coverage ratios). As a result, the benefit factors for commercial and industrial property land area in excess of 5 acres is determined to be the SFE rate per quarter acre for the first 5 acres and the relevant SFE rate per each additional acre over 5 acres. lnstitutional properties that are used for residential, commercial, or industrial purposes are also assessed at the appropriate residential, commercial, or industrial rate. Broadstone No. 4 non-residential properties are assessed per the original formation documents, per the table below:

Broadstone No. 4 Commercial/lndustrial Density and Assessment Factors (1) The SFE factors are applied by the quarter acre of land area or portion thereof. Therefore, the minimum assessment for any assessable parcel in these categories is the SFE units listed above.

Undeveloped/Vacant
The benefit to vacant properties is determined to be proportional to the corresponding benefits for similar type developed properties; however, at a lower rate due to the lack of improvements on the property. A measure of the benefits accruing to the underlying land is the average value of land in relation to improvements for developed property. The SFE factor for vacant/undeveloped parcels is 0.25 per parcel.

The benefit to undeveloped properties is determined to be proportional to the corresponding benefits for similar type developed properties, but at a lower rate due to the lack of improvements on the property. A measure of the benefits accruing to the underlying land is the average value of land in relation to lmprovements for developed property. An analysis of the assessed valuation data from the County of Sacramento found that approximately 25% of lhe assessed value of improved properties is classified as the land value. lt is reasonable to assume, therefore, that approximately 25% of the benefits are related to the underlying land and 75yo are related to the improvements and the day-to-day use of the property' Using this ratio, the SFE factor for vacant/undeveloped parcels is 0.25 per parcel. city of Folsom

Article XlllD stipulates that publicly owned properties must be assessed unless there is clear and convincing evidence that those properties receive no special benefit from the assessment. All properties that are specially benefited are assessed. Other publicly owned property that is used for purposes similar to private residential, commercial, industrial, or institutional uses is benefited and assessed at the same rate as such privately owned property.

Miscellaneous, public right-of-way parcels, welt, reservoir or other water rights parcels, limited access open space parcels, watershed parcels and common area parcels typically do not generate employees, residents, customers, or guests. Moreover, many of these parcels have limited economic value and, therefore, do not benefit from specific enhancement of property value. Such parcels are, therefore, not specially benefited and are not assessed.

ln 2015, when Broadstone No. 4 was formed, an analysis was performed of the associated lighting and landscaping improvements to determine the relative benefit to each zone from this new assessment. As a result, four Zones of Benefit were created within Broadstone No, 4. Parcels in Zone B are determined to receive 95.25% of the level of special benefit of those within Zone A, parcels in Zone C are determined to receive 93.87% of the level of special benefit of those within Zone A, and parcels in Zone D are determined to receive 92.23% ot the level of special benefit of those within Zone A.

Residential
Certain residential properties in Prairie Oaks Ranch No. 2 that contain a single residential dwelling unit are assigned 1.0 SFE. Detached or attached houses, zero-lot line houses and town homes are included in this category of single-family residential property. lf there is more than one single-family detached dwelling on a parcel, it will be charged 1.0 SFE per single-family detached dwelling.

Properties with more than one residential unit (other than parcels with more than one detached single- family dwelling as described above) are designated as multi-family residential properties. These properties benefit from the improvements in proportion to the number of dwelling units that occupy each property, the average number of people who reside in multi-family residential units versus the average number of people who reside in a single-family home and the relative size of each type of residential dwelling unit.

The population density factors for the area in Sacramento County encompassing Prairie Oaks Ranch No. 2, as depicted in the following table, provide the basis for determining the SFE factors for residential properties. Using the total population in a certain property type in the area from the 2019 ACS sYear estimate and dividing it by the total number of such households, finds that approximately 2.65 persons occupy each single-family residence, whereas an average of 1.94 persons occupy each condominium.

As determined bythe SANDAG Study, the average number of employees per acre for commercial and industrial property is 24. ln comparison, Census data shows that the average number of people residing in a single-family home in the area is 2.65. Since the average lot size for a single-family home in Prairie Oaks Ranch No. 2 is approximately 0.20 acres, the average number of residents per acre of residential property is 13.30.

The employee density per acre is generally 1.80 times the population density of single-family residential property per acre (24 employees per acre / 13.30 residents per acre).

The employee density per acre is generally 1.65 times the population density of single-family residential property per acre (24 employees per acre / 14.55 residents per acre). Therefore, the average employee density can be used as the basis for allocating benefit to commercial or industrial property since a commercial/industrial property with 4.8 employees receives generally similar special benefit to a residential property with 1 resident.

As part of the engineering work for this assessment, an analysis was conducted on the relationship (including proximity, level of service, etc.), between properties and the primary improvements located throughout Willow Creek Estates East No. 2. Parcels in Zone A (on Garrett Drive, Ferrera Drive and Whitmer Drive) receive direct special benefit from the proximate landscaping and trees adjacent to the properties as well as less proximate streetlighting. Parcels in Zone B receive direct special benefit from the proximate streetlighting as well as landscaping particularly along the street entrances into the neighborhood. Parcels in Zone C receive direct special benefit from the proximate streetlighting but less benefit from the landscaping because they are less proximate to the landscaped areas' Thus, three zones (A, B, and C) were created. Parcels in Zone A are determined to receive the same level of the level of special benefit of those within Zone B and parcels in Zone C are determined to receive 92.08% of the level of special benefit of those within Zone A and Zone B.

Each year, prior to the assessments being placed on the tax roll, the City will review the cost estimate and determine the amount needed to maintain the improvements for the upcoming fiscal year. The actual assessment per benefit point will be based on the estimated costs, available fund balance and maximum allowable assessment with the goal of maintaining the improvements in a satisfactory and operational condition. The actual assessment amount may be equal to or lower than the maximum allowable assessmenu however, it may not exceed the maximum unless the increase is approved by the property owners in accordance with Proposition 218.

8. ASSESSMENT ROLL
Assessor's parcel identification, for each lot or parcel subject to the assessment, shall be based on the County Assessor's secured roll data for the applicable year in which this report is prepared. A listing of assessor's parcels subject to the assessments for Fiscal Yeat 2023/24, along with the assessment amounts, is on file in the office of the City Clerk and incorporated herein by reference.

Based on County Assessor's secured roll data, current assessor's parcels, including corrected and/or new assessor's parcels, will be submitted and/or resubmitted to the County Auditor/Controller. The annual assessmentamountto be levied and collected forthe resubmitted parcel(s) shall be determined in accordance with the method of apportionment and assessment rate approved in this Engineer's Report.

Therefore, ifa single assessor's parcel has a status change in development, other land use change, or subdivides into multiple assessor's parcels, the assessment amounts applied to each ofthe new assessor's parcels shall be recalculated and applied according to the approved method of apportionment and assessment rate rather than a proportionate share of the original assessment amount.

The following table summarizes the Fiscal Year 2O23124 assessments for the Districts.

SUBJECT: Resolution No. I 1060 - A Resolution Authorizing the City Manager to Execute a Certification Form for the Folsom Fire Department to Participate in a Medi-Cal Intergovernmental Transfer (IGT) Program with the California Department of Health Services (DHCS) for Reimbursement of PP-GEMT IGT services for the Service Period of January 1,2023, Through December 31, 2023 and Make Transfers not to Exceed $300,738
F'ROM: Fire Department

MMENDA CIL
The Fire Department recommends that the City Council pass and approve Resolution No. 11060 - A Resolution authorizingthe City Manager to execute a certification form for the Folsom Fire Department to participate in a Medi-Cal Intergovemmental Transfer (IGT) program with the California Department of Health Services (DHCS) for reimbursement of PP-GEMT IGT services for the service period of January 1,2023, through December 31,2023 and make transfers not to exceed $300,738

BACKGROUND / ISSUE
In accordance with CaliforniaAssembly Bill 1705 (Chapter 544, Statutes of 2019), the Department of Health Care Services developed the Public Provider Ground Emergency Medical Transportation Intergovernmental Transfer Program (PP-GEMT IGT) to provide reimbursements, by application of an add-on increase, to emergency medical transports provided by eligible public PP-GEMT IGT providers. This program started on January 1,2023, and replaces the Ground Emergency Medical Transportation Program (GEMT), which ended on December 31, 2022. The City of Folsom previously participated in the GEMT annually since 2009.

Both the former GEMT and the newer PP-GEMT IGT are programs to assist the City of Folsom in recovering costs associated with the provision of Emergency Medical Services (EMS) to individuals who are covered by Medi-Cal. While PP-GEMT IGT and the former GEMT share a 1

06/27/2023 Item No.10.
nzrne, the funding sources that support each program are not the same. GEMT relied on State revenue, while PP:GEMT relies on Federal revenues. This change in funding structure allows PP- GEMT to increase revenues, potentially resulting in additional annual funding for the City of Folsom.

POLICY / RULE
Section 2.36.080, Award of Contracts of the Folsom Munisipal Code states, in part, that contracts for supplies, equipment, services, and construction with an estimated value of $70,952 or greater shall be awarded by City Council.

Provider Participation Agreement with the Califomia Department of Health Care Services (DHCS) requires approval by the City Council.

ANALYSIS
Participation in the PP-GEMT IGT program is mandatory for public provider agencies and provides an important opportunity for the City of Folsom to collect additional ambulance transport fees that would otherwise be unavailable. Mandatory participation requires the City of Folsom to collect and receive these additional ambulance transport fees for each Medi-Cal transport the Folsom Fire Department provides.

While the PP-GEMT IGT program is mandatory, cities, counties, and other public providers in the State may optionally transfer funds to the State to support the program. This optional transfer, also referred to as an Intergovernmental Transfer (IGT), allows the PP-GEMT IGT program to secure Federal matching funds thalarethe basis for providing additional add-on revenues for each Medi-Cal patient transported. Without these matching funds from public providers, the State would not have adequate funds to receive the Federal match. While the IGT is optional, staff recommends the City of Folsom provide the IGT to ensure ongoing revenues associated with PP- GEMT IGT continue.

FINAN IMPACT
Yearly costs and benefits from the program to the City of Folsom are dependent on Medi-Cal transports the Fire Department provides in a calendar year. Using previous year Medi-Cal transport data, it is estimated that the City of Folsom' s 2023 IGT to the State will be $273,397 .95.

Participating in the PP-GEMT IGT program preserves an estimated $900,000 annually that would not be available should the City decide not to provide the IGT to DHCS. Revenue from the program is directly related to the number of Medi-Cal transports that the Fire Department provides each year.

The PP-GEMT IGT Certification Form lists an initial transfer of $91,132.65, which is the first of three transfers this calendar year totaling an estimated$273,398. Staff recommends the Council authorize total transfers not to exceed $300,738 which would account for a l|Yo contingency in 2 Page 232
06/27/2023 Item No.10.
the event that fewer agencies participate or the Fire Department transports additional Medi-Cal patients, both of which could lead to higher transfers than expected.

Funding for the prior GEMT program is included in the Fiscal Year 2023-24 Operuting Budget.

There are sufficient funds for this contract in the Fire Department in the General Fund (Fund 010).

1. As a public administrator, a public officer, or other public individual, I am duly au- thorized to make this certification.

2. The Public Entity elects to make this intergovernmental transfer (lGT) to the De- partment of Health Care Service (DHCS) as a voluntary contribution to the non- iederal share of Medi-Cal expenditures for purposes of Assembly Bill 1705 (2019) pursuant to Section s 14105.94, 14105.945,14129,14129.3, and 14164 of the Wel- fare and lnstitutions (W&l) Code. All funds transferred pursuant to this certification qualify for federal financial participation (FFP) pursuant to Section 1903(w) of the Sociai Security Act and Title 42 of the Code of Federal Regulations, Section 433 Subpart B, and are not derived from impermissible sources such as recycled Med- icaid payments, federal money excluded from use as the non-federal share, im- permissible health care-related taxes, or non-bona fide provider-related donations.

3. Voluntary contributions attributable to the period of January 1, 2023, through De- cember i1,2023, will be made via recurring transfers as indicated on the invoices provided to the Public Entity by DHCS. The Public Entity acknowledges that any iransfers made pursuant to this certification during this time period are considered an elective IGT made pursuant to W&l Code sections 14105.945 and 14164, to be used by DHCS, subject to paragraph four herein, exclusively as the source for the non-federal share of ground emergency medical transport public provider supple- mental payments in Obtn Medi-Calfee-for-service payments and the portion of the risk-based capitation rate to Medi-Cal managed care health plans associated with reimbursement made in accordance with Section 14105.945, subdivision (h)(1) (hereafter, the AB 1705 Public Provider (PP) Ground Emergency Medical Trans- portation (GEMT) lntergovernmental Transfer (lGT) Program, or the PP-GEMT ict erogram), and DHdS costs associated with administering the PP-GEMT IGT Program.

5. The Public Entity acknowledges that, in accordance with W&l Code section 14105.945, subdivision (h)(2), upon CMS approval, DHCS shall assess a ten per- cent (10%) fee on each transfer of public funds to the state to pay for health care

SUBJECT: Resolution No. 11061 - A Resolution Authorizing the City Manager to Execute a Construction Agreement with Midstate Barrier, Inc. for the Folsom Lake Crossing and East Natoma Street Safety Improvements Project
FROM: Public Works Department

RECOMMENDATION / CITY COUNCIL ACTIQII
The Public Works Department recommends that the City Council pass and adopt Resolution No. 1 1 061 * A Resolution Authorizing the City Manager to Execute a Construction Agreement with Midstate Barrier, Inc. for the Folsom Lake Crossing and East Natoma Street Safety Improvements Project.

BACKGROUND / ISSUE
The Public Works Department is responsible for the operation, safety, and maintenance of roadways throughout Folsom. In June 2021,a Local Road Safety Plan (LRSP) was developed, which is a data-driven report that systematically identifies and analyzes roadway safety issues and recommends improvements. The LRSP utilized accident data between 2015 and2019 to determine locations and causes of traffic accidents, allowing engineers to implement specific countermeasures to address the causes of accidents, leading to a safer roadway network for vehicles, bicycles, and pedestrians.

The LRSP identified three specific locations, one on Folsom Lake Crossing between Folsom Dam Road and the Johnny Cash Trail entrance, one on East Natoma Street between Folsom Lake Crossing and Gionata Way, and one on Folsom Auburn Road between Pinebrook Drive and Folsom Dam Road, that would benefit from the installation of median baniers and dynamic radar speed feedback signs. Utilizing the data and recommendations from the LRSP, the ctty was successful in receiving Highway Safety Improvement Program (HSIP) funds for those 1

06/27/2023 Item No.11.
improvements.

In December 202l,the City contracted with TJKM to perform the project design and produce the plans, specifications, and estimate. The project components consist of the installation of metal thrie-beam median barriers at all three project locations, the installation of dynamic radar speed feedback signs prior to roadway curves, and updated roadway signage and striping.

The project is expected to begin in July 2023 andbe completed by September 2023.

POLICY / RULE

AGENDA SECTION: Consent Calendar
SUBJECT: Receive Annual Report regarding Police Use of Military Type Equipment and approve Resolution No. 11063 - A Resolution Renewing Ordinance No. 1326 and Determining that Specified "Military Equipment" Used by the Folsom Police Department has Complied with Standards for Approval Set Forth in State Law FROM: Police Department

RECOMMENDATION / COIINCII, ACTION
Staff recommends that the City Council receive the annual report for use of 'military' type equipment and approve Resolution No. 11063 - A Resolution Renewing Ordinance No. 1326 and Determining that Specified "Military Equipmenf'Used by the Folsom Police Department has Complied with Standards for Approval Set Forth in State Law

BACKGROUND / ISSUE
On May 24th,2022 City Council approved the use of certain 'military' type equipment to be in compliance with Assembly Bill 481 which required a law enforcement agency (LEA) to obtain approval from the applicable governing body, via adoption of an ordinance approving a "military equipment" use policy, prior to the LEA, acquiring, using, or seeking funds for military equipment. AB 481 defines "military equipment" broadly and creates explicit parameters for the military equipment use policy it requires.

As a result of City Council approval, City of Folsom Ordinance 1326 was enacted along with Folsom Police Policy 707.

AB 481 requires an annual report for each type of approved equipment. The law also requires City Council to review and vote on whether to renew the military equipment use ordinance at least annually.

I

06/27/2023 Item No.12.

POLICY / RULE

o Annual report submitted to City Council, summarizing how the equipment was used. . The annual report must be made public.
o The results of any internal audits or complaints and actions taken. o The total annual cost of applicable items.
o An inventory of how many applicable items are possessed. o If the department intends to acquire additional applicable equipment in the next yeat, the type and quantity of equipment sought.

Ordinance Renewal
AB 481 also requires the Council to review Ordinance 1326 at least annually and to vote on whether to renew the ordinance. As apart of this review, the Council must determine, based on the annual military equipment report described above, whether each type of military equipment identified in that report has complied with the following standards for approval:

A. The military equipment is necessary because there is no reasonable alternative that can achieve the same objective of officer and civilian safety.

B. The proposed military equipment use policy will safeguard the public's welfare, safety, civil rights, and civil liberties.

C. If purchasing equipment, the equipment is reasonably cost effective compared to available alternatives that can achieve the same objective of officer and civilian safety.

D. Prior military equipment use complied with the military equipment use policy that was in effect at the time.

If the Council determines that each type of military equipment identified in the report has complied with the standards for approval, it may vote to renew the ordinance. If the Council determines that atype of military equipment identified in the annual report has not complied with the standards for approval, lhe Council must either disapprove a renewal of the authorization for that type of military equipment or require modifications to the military equipment use policy in a manner that will resolve the lack of compliance.

06/27/2023 Item No.12.

The Police Department does intend on acquiring a new tactical robot within the next reporting period. The current robot is outdated and in need of replacement. A future staff report will be submitted for approval.

Ordinance Renewal
As shown in the annual report, each type of equipment used has complied with the standards for approval referenced in the Policy/Rule section of this report.

Over the past year, there have been no changes to the necessity for any of the listed equipment. It remains the case that no reasonable alternatives exist to achieve the same objectives of officer and civilian safety gained by use of the listed equipment. As stated to the Council in our initial presentation on this issue, items deemed to be "military equipment" by AB 481 are used as a component of overall best practices for law enforcement agencies throughout the country. These tools have been tested in the field and are used by law enforcement to enhance citizen safety and officer safety. Loss of these items would jeopardize the welfare of citizens and peace officers within the City of Folsom. For example, the rifles deemed to be "military equipmenf' allow peace officers to address lethal threats from a greater distance, with greater precision. These statements remain true today.

Police Policy 707 has and will continue to safeguard the public's welfare, safety, civil rights, and civil liberties. As explained in association with adoption of Ordinance 1326last year, all swern officers with the Folsom Police Department are bound by a stringent set of laws, policies, and procedures which are in line with the public's welfare, safety, civil rights, and civil liberties. Similarly, all officers are trained in a variety of strategies and tactics which are in line with the laws, policies, and procedures by which we are bound, prior to the use or application of any military type equipment. These polices, procedures, and training requirements are all reflected in Police Policy 707 and no substantive changes to that Policy are proposed.

The Police Department's use of military type equipment over the past year complied with Police Policy 707. As explained above, the equipment was used in a variety of incidents including but not limited to: barricaded subjects, high risk incidents, critical incidents, high risk building entries, felony vehicle stops, suspect searches, missing person searches, outside agency assistance, training, etc. The equipment used in each incident was authorized for such uses, as documented in Police Policy 707. In addition, the officers using the equipment were properly trained before each deployment, as required.

While the Department is considering the purchase of a new tactical robot, that equipment is not being requested or approved as a part of this report. A future staff report will analyze the standard for approval of new equipment in association with that proposed purchase.

Replacement of Existine Military Equipment
The Department is authorized to replace previously approved quantities of any approved military equipment without amending Police Policy 707 or Ordinance 1326 if the military 4

06/27/2023 Item No.12.
equipment is destroyed or rendered inoperable as a result of authorized use. An updated inventory list reflecting such replacements over the last fiscal year is attached to this report.

ENVIRONMENTAL REVIEW
The California Environmental Qualrty Act (CEQA) does not apply to activities that will not result in a direct or reasonably foreseeable indirect physical change in the environment or ot activities that are not otherwise considered a "project" as defined by Public Resources Code $ 21065. (CEQA Guidelines $ 15061(c)(3) and $ 15373.) The Council's decision regarding renewal of Ordinance 1326 meets the above criteria and is not subject to CEQA. No environmental review is required.

FINANCIAL IMPACT
The estimated yearly financial impact of listed items (training and operational), including maintenance costs during this reporting period was approximately 510,137.32'

Folsom City Council
Staff ort
MEETING DATE: 6t2712023
AGENDA SECTION: New Business
SUBJECT: Consideration of Economic Development Consultant (Scope of Work and Goals) and Direction to Staff
F'ROM City Manager's Office

RECOMMENDATION / COUNCIL ACTION
The City Manager recommends that the City Council provide direction to the City Manager as to the scope of work and goals sought for the economic development consultant contract included as part of the approved FY2023-24 Budget.

BACKGROUND / ISSUE
The City Council unanimously approved the City Manager's Proposed FY2023-24 Budget at its regular meeting on May 23,2023.

The only change made by the City Council to the City Manager's Budget proposal upon adoption was to not transfer $50,000 from the General Fund to help replenish the Risk Management Internal Service Fund (diminished during the COVID-19 pandemic) nor transfer $50,000 from the General Fund to create an Information Technology Capital Fund (information technology needs are widespread throughout the City organization).

A consensus of the City Council instead requested that up to $100,000 be dedicated to an economic development consultant contract. The City Council further requested that the City Manager place an item on a future City Council agenda to allow the City Council to provide specificity as to the scope and work and goals for this consultant.

POLICY / RULE
All powers of the City shall be vested in the City Council except as otherwise provided by the City Charter. Section 2.02 of the City Charter.
1

06/27/2023 Item No.13.

ANALYSIS
Successful economic development calls for continuing to cultivate a high quality of life within Folsom that supports and strengthens existing businesses, attracts new businesses, and creates employment opportunities in the community while also, ideally, enhancing City revenues.

Since it is unknown at this time whether dollars set aside for this purpose will be ongoing in future budget years, staff recommends that the scope of work for the economic development consultant include specific, measurable, achievable, relevant, and time-bound deliverables that are meaningful and helpful to City leadership. The scope of work could include any combination of the following possibilities, and staff also welcomes input from the City Council as to other possibilities:

1. Dovetailing with and building on the three-year strategic plan the City Council recently adopted, prepare a three-year economic development action plan. The economic development action plan would provide recommendations for business retention and attraction programs specific to Folsom, including special focus on means and methods to help spark and support Folsom's start-up business community; ideas for "place-making" special events; a SWOT (Strengths, Weaknesses, Opportunities, and Threats) analysis; an assessment of key City properties (following through on the work of the Council ad hoc committee); an assessment of major shopping centers and strategic retail areas within Folsom to understand future opportunities for retail development and redevelopment possibilities; and suggestions as to how the City could best move forward at the conclusion of the contract in terms of ensuring there is sufficient in-house andlor third- party staffing capabilities to help carry the plan forward.

2. Assess development projects presented to the City through an economic development lens, providing analysis for inclusion in correlating City Council reports as to projected sales tax revenue and other benefits helpful to the City's financial position, as well as demographic, employment, consumer habits, consumer demand, and market supply profiles and assessments as needed and appropriate. This would include participating in the master planning processes already or soon to be underway for the River District and the Central Business District.

3. Conduct a regional comparison of the City's fees, taxes, rates, incentives, and processes that most impact the business community to assess the City's competitiveness in terms of attracting and retaining quality businesses.

4. Conduct a void analysis to highlight possible businesses to target to attract to Folsom.

These businesses would ideally complement and grow Folsom's existing and emerging industry sectors (including health care and technology). A void analysis would include possible businesses and their retail class along with the nearest location, approximate size needed, and estimated sales tax revenue.

06/27/2023 Item No.13.

5. Develop an e-gift card program to encourage residents to shop locally during the upcoming holiday ssason, including identiffing interested businesses for participation, setting up an online account, creating associated branding and community outreach materials, monitoring sales and usage, and serving as the point of contact for business owners. (Staff understands through recent conversations that Choose Folsom may already be planning a program like this; if Choose Folsom does decide to move forward, the City would help supportthatprogram rather than lead it.)

6. Provide third-party economic development staffing services to support the City of Folsom in this critical area, including serving as a primary point of contact for the City on these issues; providing 'oconcierge" services for new businesses, business expansion, reuse possibilities, andlor development opportunities; creating customized marketing materials; and facilitating the completion of key tasks identified in the economic development action plan.

Any final scope of work would, of course, be implemented in communication, coordination, and partnership with Choose Folsom.

FINANCIAL IMPACT
There are sufficient funds available in the General Fund (Fund 010) for the approved FY2023-24 Budget for an economic development consultant contract not to exceed $100,000.

ENVIRONMENTAL REVIEW
The recommended action of the City Council is not a project as defined by the California Environmental Quality Act (CEQA) and therefore does not require environmental review.
