RECOMMENDATION / CITY COUNCIL ACTION
Adopt Resolution No. 11218- A Resolution to Declassiff Five Landmark Trees within the Joint Powers Authority Landmark Grove to Allow for Removal as Part of the Sacramento Regional Transit Light Rail Modemization 15 Minutes to Folsom Project.

BACKGROUND / ISSUE
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.

On March 9 , 1999 , the City Council adopted Resolution No. 591 | - A Resolution Establishing Landmark Tree Designation at the JPA Right-of-Way on Folsom Boulevard Between Bidwell Street and Blue Ravine Road to underscore the historical and ecological value of the native trees along the Folsom Boulevard scenic corridor. The associated staff report called attention to the possibility that the Joint Powers Authority (JPA), as the property owner, may potentially need to declassifr one or more Landmark Trees for light rail improvements in the future. By designating the trees along the Folsom Blvd JPA corridor as Landmark Trees, the City Council became the decision-making body for any future requests for declassification for the purposes of any tree removals that might be necessary for light rail improvements.

JPA Landmark Grove
Aerial image illustrating the location and span of the Joint Powers Authority (JPA) Landmark Grove, which trqverses along the east edge of Folsom Blvd between Blue Ravine Rd and Bihuell St.

On January 23,2024, City Council adopted ResolutionNo. I ll59 - A Resolution to Declassify Five LandmarkTreeswithinthe Joint Powers Authority LandmsrkGrove to Allowfor Removal as Part of the Sacramento Regional Transit Light Rail Modernization I5 Minutes to Folsom Proj ect to allow for construction of a passing track, an additional loading platform at the Glenn station, and the adaptation of the existing platform at this station to accommodate modernized rail vehicles. Collectively, the improvements are anticipated to increase the operation of light rail trains from the Sunrise Station (Rancho Cordova) to the Historic Folsom Station reducing train headway capacity from every 30 minutes to 15 minutes.

Unfortunately, as the light rail improvements progressed, Sacramento Regional Transit (SacRT) discovered additional tree removals needed to occur as a result of their project.

Consequently, a second application to declassifu thirteen more Landmark Trees within the Folsom Blvd JPA Grove was submitted to the Community Development Department to bring forward for Council consideration. On February 13,2024, City Council adopted Resolution No. I 1164 - A Resolution to Declassify Thirteen Landmark Trees within the Joint Powers 2 Page 18
07/09/2024 Item No.4.

Authority Landmark Grove to Allow for Removal as Part of the Sacramento Regional Transit Light Rail Modernization 15 Minutes to Folsom Proiect.

The initial Landmark Tree declassification application submitted by SacRT (and subsequent adopted resolution) identified five trees requiring removal. However, because SacRT did not have the trees within the Folsom Blvd JPA Grove surveyed and mapped in conformance with requirements set forth in Folsom Municipal Code 12.16.140 as part of their project design, additional tree impacts continue to emerge as their project progresses.

A third application to declassi$'trees within the Landmark Grove has now been submitted to the Community Development Department. This application identifies four additional native oak trees that will require removal and eight others that will need to be pruned to accommodate the lightrail overhead powerlines, which were not accurately accounted for in previous reports.

A June 24,2024 update to SacRT's current application also identifies a fifth tree (tag #4879) for removal due to the recent redesign of a segment of slope adjacent to the track, which requires the relocation of the existing bike path. Information of this redesign can be found within the RFI from Aldridge Electric, Inc for the Relocation of the Existing Bike Path, included herein as Attachment#6.

POLICY / RULE

07/09/2024 Item No.4.

Native oak species measuring six inches in diameter at standard height (54" above grade) and greater are protected under Chapter 12.16 as Native Oak Trees, requiring a staff level discretionary tree permit prior to removal. In accordance with Section 12.16.170 of the Folsom Municipal Code, the Landmark Tree designation established under Resolution No. 5911 adds protections to all trees within the JPA corridor, inclusive of oak trees smaller than six inches in diameter at standard height and non-oak species that would not otherwise be protected.

Additionally, the Landmark Tree status escalates the review body for declassification/removal from City staff to the City Council.

Section 12.16.170(D) of the Folsom Municipal Code allows a property owner to submit an application to the Community Development Department, requesting that the City Council declassiS by resolution a tree or group of trees previously designated as a Landmark Tree(s).

In order to remove the landmark designation of a tree, the City Council must find that the tree is no longer a significant community benefit because it meets one or more of the following factors:
l) The tree(s) has significantly deteriorated in health or appearance. 2)The tree(s) no longer possesses habitat value.
3) The tree(s) prevents reasonable use ofthe property.

If the City Council declassifies a tree or group of trees previously designated as a Landmark Tree, a copy of the resolution is provided to the property owner and the ctty's Urban Forester will remove the tree(s) from the Landmark Tree Registry. Subsequently, the owner/applicant may submit a tree removal permit application to the Community Development Department and mitigate for the removals in accordance with Folsom Municipal Code 12.16.150.

ANALYSIS
The species distribution of tree resources within the project area of the JPA Landmark Grove is comprised primarily of interior live oak (Quercus wislizeni), with a small number of blue (Q. douglasii) and valley (Q. lobata) oaks interspersed throughout; along with a handful of California black walnut (Juglans hindsii). An updated survey of all the trees located in proximity to the project area aan be found within the arborist report, included herein as Attachment 3. Of the Landmark Trees surveyed, 39 will require pruning to accommodate the proposed permanent features of the project or the necessary clearance for access during construction. Said pruning will require a tree work permit from the Community Development Department, must be performed by an arborist certified with the International Society of Arboriculture, and must conform with all applicable City standards and policies.

During the ongoing construction, the project proponent has established a tree protection zone (TPZ) by enclosing all Landmark Trees to be retained in high-visibility exclusionary fencing affixed with weatherproof warning signs. Said fencing encompasses as much of the critical 4 Page 20
07/09/2024 Item No.4.
root zone as possible in order to allow for the work and shall remain in place for the duration of the project.

Twenty-three (23) trees total (including the trees listed in the current application) within the project area are located within the footprint of the proposed project improvements or are -other*ir" in such close proximity that the necessary pruning for required clearances would constitute a critical impact resulting in the likely death of the tree. If the SacRT Light Rail Modernization Double Track Project is to move forward, five additional Landmark Trees will need to be removed . All23 trees are delineated in Table 1 below with the five newest additions emphasized in bold text. Following the table is staff s assessment of applicability for each of the three findings in Section 12.16.170(DX2) in consideration for declassification from Landmark status.

07/09/2024 Item No.4.

Based on the information provided in the arborist report, which has been verified by the Urban Forester, the subject trees are in good condition. Therefore, this finding would not apply in consideration for declassification of the Landmark Tree designation.

The trees no longer have habitat value
Native oaks (genus Quercus) are keystone species, supporting more life-forms than any other tree genus in Norttr America. Additionally, the California black walnut tree furnishes a substantial food source for many small mammals and birds. As such, this finding would not apply in consideration for declassification of the Landmark Tree designation.

The trees prevent reasonable use ofthe property
As described in the paragraphs above and illustrated in the supplemental documents attached to this report, SacRT contends that the additional four subject trees cannot feasibly be retained concurrently with their project as presently designed. Staff have reviewed the application documents and confirmed that the Light Rail Modemization project as designed is not compatible with the retention of the trees enumerated above in Table I ' CON
The Urban Forester has confirmed the SacRT Light Rail Modernization endeavor cannot proceed congruently with retention of the Landmark Trees listed within this report as the project is currently designed. Thus, staff agree thata finding may reasonably be made for declassification under Folsom Municipal Code 12.16.170(D)(2)(3): The tree(s) prevents reasonable use ofthe propertY.

As such, staff forwards for City Council consideration Resolution No. 1 I2l8 - A Resolution to Declassify Five Landmark Trees within the Joint Powers Authority Landmark Grove to Allow for Removal as Part of the Sacramento Regional Transit Light Rail Modernization 15 Minutes to Folsom Project with the expectation that the project proponent will remove and mitigate the subject trees in accordance with the Chapter 12.16 of the Folsom Municipal Code.

FIN IMPACT
The applicant has supplied the $287 application fee for declassiffing a Landmark Tree designation. If approved by City Council, the resolution to declassiff the subject trees will allow the applicant to submit atree removal permit and mitigate for the five subject trees in conformanCe with Folsom Municipal Code 12.16.150. If payment of in-lieu fees is the chosen mitigation option, the estimated fee total would be $10,750' Pursuant to Section 12.16.160 of the Folsom Municipal Code, the anticipated mitigation fees will be deposited into the City's Tree Planting and Replacement Fund, which is utilized for tree planting projects, administration of supplemental tree programs, and maintenance of Landmark Trees.

ENVIRONMENTAL REVIEW
In consideration of environmental impacts, SacRT prepared an Initial Study and Mitigated Negative Declaration (ISA{ND) for the project in January of 2020 in accordance with the Califomia Environmental Quality Act (CEQA). The study found that a less-than significant impact on air quality and biological resources is expected from the project as a result of tree removals contingent upon the preparation of an arborist survey and mitigation for the tree removals through either a tree replacement plan or payment of in-lieu fees in conformance with local j urisdictional policies.

In keeping with the findings of the IS/MND, SacRT has acquired an arborist survey and is currently exploring potential mitigation strategies involving the planting of replacement trees elsewhere in the city. As detailed under Folsom Municipal Code 12.16.150(A)(l)(a), the mitigation planting equivalent for this third round of tree removals by SacRT will be either 43 oaktrees from a 15-ga11on container, or 21 oak trees from a24" box container and a single oak from a 15-gallon container. Staff will work with SacRT on a reasonable timeline for developing their mitigation plan and vetting potential planting locations. If SacRT is unable to produce a viable mitigation planting plan, they will mitigate for the removal of the five subject trees through payment of the associated in-lieu fees as outlined in Section 12.16.150 of the Folsom Municipal Code.

Re: Rail Modernization - 15 Minute Service to Folsom Project Subject: Tree Removal Justification Memo
There are four trees that require removal to construct Track Work as part of the SacRT 15 Minute Service to Folsom Project as shown on the attached plan sheet C- 011. The Mitigation Monitoring and Reporting Plan approved 1111312021requires a tree removal permit from the City of Folsom.

The Folsom City Arborist has informed us that these trees are part of a Landmark Grove that was designated by the City Council approximately 30 years ago; and that these trees cannot be removed from a Landmark Grove without first having them "declassified" by the City Council. ln order for the Councilto make this declassification, they need to determine one of the following:

1. The tree is dead or dying with no reasonable alternative measures available to improve tree condition (i.e., mulching, irrigating, pruning, cabling, etc.); or

2. The tree no longer has habitat value; or

3. The tree prevents reasonable use of the property, and no feasible alternative measures exist to retain the subject tree concurrently with a specified reasonable use.

Unfortunately, per ltem 3 above, there are no feasible alternatives that exist to retain the trees and deliver the project as planned due to the site constraints of adjacent roadways, dynamic train envelope, overhead catenary system, and sight distance.

Please accept this letter as justification to remove the trees shown on Plans sheet C- 011. Your timely consideration is appreciated as our contractor, Aldridge Electric lnc., did coordinate with the City well in advance, but we understand that our contractor was not provided the above requirements.

07/09/2024 Item No.4.

Ghapter {. lntroduction
The Sacramento Regional Transit District (SacRT) proposes to construct the SacRT Folsom Light Rail Modernization Double Track Project (Project) along Folsom Boulevard at the Glenn Station between Glenn Drive and Parkshore Drive within the City of Folsom. An arborist survey was completed in the fall of 2023 to inventory the trees within the project footprint. An Arborist Report was prepared in January 2024 to quantify tree impacts and SacRT subsequently obtained the necessary tree permits and landmark tree declassifications to complete the tree work as described in the arborist report.

Tree trimming and removals described in the Arborist Report were completed on May 21, 2024i however, additional tree work is required to meet minimum clearance requirements for the light rail overhead powerlines. The purpose of this addendum is to document the additional trees that will either need to be trimmed for the first time, trimmed again, or removed to meet the minimum clearance requirements.

1.1. Survey MethodologY
After tree trimming and removals were completed in accordance with the Arborist Report on May 21, 2024, the project area was inspected by lnternational Society of Arboriculture (lSA) certified arborist Scott Salembier (WE-12418A) and Katelynn Mosier, the Project Manager for the contractor completing the double track project on May 22,2024- Using field survey stakes and project plan sheets, it was determined which of the remaining trees would still conflict with the new overhead lines and need additional trimming. The percentage of the canopy that must still be removed was visually estimated. lf the required trimming would remove too much of the canopy, disfigure the tree, or otherwise significantly damage the tree, it was recommended for removal.

SacRT Folsom Light Rail Modernization Double Track Project Arborist Report (v4) - Addendum L

07/09/2024 Item No.4.

Ghapter 2. Additional Tree lmpacts
A total of 13 trees must still be either trimmed, trimmed again, or removed. These trees are summarized in Table 1 below and impacts are discussed in greater detail in the following section.

Table 1. AdditionalTree lmpacts Summary Table

2.1. Description & Justification for Additional Tree Work

2.1.1. Tree 4829, 24-inch lnterior Live Oak (Removal)
Lower branches of this tree were previously trimmed as described in the arborist report; however, ln order to meet the increased vertical clearance for the light rail overhead power lines, approximately 50% of the remaining canopy would need be removed including one of the tree's main leaders. Trimming to this level would have a similar effect as topping and would leave a disfigured tree more prone to eriatic growth and premature failure. ln addition, the remaining canopy would closely overhang the new high-voltage lines and pose a potential fire and public safety risk. lt is therefore recommended for removal.

2.1.2. Tree 4830, 11-inch Valley Oak (Removal)
Lower branches of this tree were previously trimmed as described in the arborist report. The entire tree canopy is leaning out over the planned power lines and in order to meet the increased vertical clearance for the light rail overhead power lines, more than 80% of the canopy would need to be removed including all of the main leaders. This would effectively top the tree and leave a disfigured trunk with almost no canopy to support it. The tree is therefore recommended for removal.

2.1.3. Tree 4835A, f -inch lnterior Live Oak (Removal)
This smalltree was not picked up during the previous arborist surveys and was only noticed after surrounding underbrush was cleared out. The tree is within the footprint of compacted fill for the new track and must be removed.

Chapter 2. AdditionalTree lmpacts

2.1.4. Tree 4836, 31-inch Valley Oak (2nd Round of Trimming) Low hanging branches of this tree were previously trimmed as described in the Arborist Report.

Two additional branches making up about 10 percent of the remaining canopy must now be removed to meet the increased clearance requirements.

2.1.5. Tree 4841, 28-inch lnterior Live Oak (1"t Round of Trimming) This tree has not been pruned; however, with the increased vertical clearance minor trimming of outer branches will be necessary to keep the branches out of the power lines. Heading cuts may be necessary to slow the rate of future growth towards the lines. Less than 5 percent of the canopy will need to be removed.

2.1.6. Tree 4849, 61-inch lnterior Live Oak (2nd Round of Trimming) Low hanging branches of this tree were previously trimmed as described in the Arborist Report.

Two additional limbs must either be removed or reduced with heading cuts to maintain clearance from the power lines. Less than 5% of the remaining canopy must be removed.

2.1.7. Tree 4850, 121-inch lnterior Live Oak (1st Round of Trimming) The tree was not trimmed during previous tree work. Reducing cuts are required on two outer branches to maintain clearance from the power lines. Less than 5% of the canopy must be removed.

2.1.8. Tree 4872A. S-inch Grepe Myrtle (Removal)
This tree is not part of the Landmark Grove along Folsom Boulevard but is a protected street tree in the center median of Glenn Road. Relocated crossing guards on Glenn Road require the removal of the tree.

2.1.9. Tree 4873, 37-inch lnterior Live Oak (2nd Round of Trimming) Low hanging branches of this tree were previously trimmed as described in the Arborist Report.

Minor/incidental additional trimming is needed for clearance from the power lines. Less than 5% of the canopy must be removed.

2.'1.10. Tree 4876, 23-inch Interior Live Oak (2nd Round of Trimming) Low hanging branches of this tree were previously trimmed as described in the Arborist Report.

With the increased vertical clearance requirement, more of the canopy is now in conflict with the power lines and approximately 30% of the remaining canopy would need to be removed which exceeds ANSI standards. The tree is in good health and while removing this much of the canopy is not ideal, the main leaders will not be removed and the tree has a good chance of recovering.

2.'1.11. Tree 4881, 19-inch lnterior Live Oak (2nd Round of Trimming) Low hanging branches of this tree were previously trimmed as described in the Arborist Report.

One additional reduction cut must be made on a large branch to maintain clearance to the power lines. This will remove approximately 10% of the remaining canopy.

2.1.12. Tree 4888, 38-inch lnterior Live Oak (2nd Round of Trimming) Low hanging branches of this tree were previously trimmed as described in the Arborist Report.

Additional trimming is required to maintain clearance between the tree and power lines. This would remove approximately 5% of the remaining canopy'

Chapter 2. AdditionalTree lmpacts

2.1.13. Tree 4940A, 3-inch Valley Oak (Removal)
This small tree was not picked up during the previous arborist surveys and was only noticed after surrounding underbrush was cleared out. The tree is within the footprint of compacted fill for the new track and must be removed.

2.2. Tree Declassification & Mitigation
Five additional trees need to be removed to complete the project. These trees are either rooted within the grading limits of the project or so much of the tree canopy would need to be trimmed that the tree is unlikely to survive or thrive after construction. Four of these trees are part of the Designated Landmark Grove and must first be declassified before they can be removed. The Sth tree is not part of the Landmark Grove and does not need to be declassified but does need to be permitted and mitigated as a City Street Tree.

Compensatory mitigation for the 5 additional trees that must be removed will be required on an inch per inch basis before construction may proceed. Per the City ordinance, the extrapolated DSH is used to determine the mitigation needed for each tree. Table 6 below lists the trees that must be removed and the DSH replacement mitigation requirement.

Under the City's tree ordinance, mitigation may take the form of on-site planting, payment of in- lieu fees, or preservation of existing protected trees measuring one-inch DSH or greater.

SacRT is electing to mitigate for the removal of 40 additional DSH inches by paying the in-lieu fee. Current in-lieu fees are $250/inch. ln-lieu fee payment is estimated to be $'10,000.

Ghapter 1. Introduction
The Sacramento Regional Transit District (SacRT) proposes to construct the SacRT Folsom Light Rail Modernization Double Track Project (Project) along Folsom Boulevard at the Glenn/Robert G. Holderness Station between Glenn Drive and Parkshore Drive within the City of Folsom, California. This report presents the results of an arborist survey conducted to quantify tree resources present within the project footprint. ln addition to relaying current size and health of each tree within the project area, this report also presents an assessment of the effects of the proposed project on each tree.

1.1. Project DescriPtion
SacRT proposes to improve its light rail service to Folsom along its Gold Line. The improvements would allow light rail trains to operate every 15 minutes from the Sunrise Station to the Historic Folsom Station, rather than the current 30 minutes. The improvements are part of the "Folsom Light Rail Modernization Project" that collectively includes new low-floor light rail vehicles, modification to station platforms to accommodate the new vehicles, and addition of new passing tracks and signalization. Current service between the Sunrise Station and the eastern terminus of the Gold Line at the Historic Folsom Station (at Leidesdorff Street and Folsom Boulevard) is impeded because only a single trabk provides service between these stations. To remedy this operational constraint, the proposed project includes "double tracking" (or installing a passing track) in two locations; updating the signal system that controls train movements so that trains will be able to operate inbound and outbound between the Sunrise and Historic Folsom Stations with little or no delay; adding a second loading platform at the Glenn and Hazel Stations; and modifying the existing platforms at these stations to accommodate the new low-floor light rail vehicles. 1,2. Gity of Folsom Tree Ordinance
The City regulates the removal, pruning, and impacts to Protected Trees under the Tree Preservation and Protection Ordinance (Chapter 12.16 of the Municipal Code). The ordinance defines Protected Trees as including Native Oak Trees, Heritage Trees, Landmark Trees, and Regulated Trees.

Native oak rrees include: valley oak (Quercus lobata), blue oak (Quercus douglasii'f interior live oak (Quercus wislizenr), and coast live oak (Quercus agrifolia) with a single trunk diameter at standard height (DSH) of 6 inches or greater or a combined DSH of 20 inches or greater for multi- stem trees.

Heritage trees include any tree on the City's Master Tree List with a DSH over 30 for single stemmed trees or over 50 for multi-stemmed trees.

Landmark trees include any tree or group of trees that have been determined by the City Council to confer a significant community benefit to the general public' Regulated trees include trees required by City zoning code such as parking lot shade, street trees, or trees required as conditions of a development project.

Chapter 2. Tree Survey Results
Mitigation ratios for Protected Trees varies depending on the ASCA Tree Rating System and the size of replacement trees. Protected trees rated 3,4 or 5 in the ASCA Tree Rating System (Table

1. ASCA Tree Rating System) shall be replaced at a ratio of one-inch equivalent for every one- inch of DSH removed as shown in Table 2 (Table 2. Tree Replacement Equivalency Table).

Protected Trees rated 2 shall be replaced at a ratio of O.S-inch equivalent for every one-inch removed. Protected Trees rated 0 or 1 require no replacement or any other mitigation unless a Parking Lot Shading Tree or Street Tree replacement is required under the Zoning Code.

Mitigation may take the form of on-site planting, payment of in-lieu fees, or preservation of existing protected trees measuring one-inch DSH or greater. A combination of on-site replacement planting and payment of in-lieu fees may be used where the number of replacement trees cannot be accommodated on-site. The in-lieu payment shall be reduced based on the number of DSH inches of the replacement trees planted onsite. Mitigation may be waived if the City Arborist determines a tree proposed for removal poses a significant risk to health and safety.

Chapter 2. Tree Survey Results

1.3. Survey MethodologY
The project area was surveyed by lnternational Society of Arboriculture (lSA) certified arborist Scott Salembier (WE-12418A) on November 28,2023 and December 22,2023. Following clarification of project description. the surveyed trees were revisited on January 3,2024 and January 19,2024 in order to evaluate potential effects to each tree. The results included in this report include alltrees that meet the definition of a Protected Tree under the City Tree Ordinance that may be affected by the proposed project. The species of each tree was identified, and the location of each tree was mapped with GPS. The DSH of each stem was then measured with a diameter tape and recorded.
ln accordance with the City tree ordinance, the DSH of multi-stem trees each stem was calculated by adding together the DSH of each stem. This combined DSH is used for determining if a tree qualifies as a heritage tree. ln addition, for the purpose of calculating compensatory mitigation the extrapolated DSH was calculated by measuring the DSH of each stem and then taking the square root of the sum of each individual stem's DSH squared. Both combined and extrapolated DSH values are provided in the survey results. Each tree was briefly inspected then rated according to the ASCA Tree Rating System for consistency with the City's tree ordinance. Dead trees were not recorded. Table 3 below includes the ASCA Tree Health Ratings.

All trees found within the project area were in either good or fair health at the time of the survey except for three lnterior Live Oaks (#4853, #4863 and #4992). The locations of all trees found within the project area are shown on Figure 3.

2.1. Protected Tree Status
Native Oak Trees
The survey area included 1 Blue oak, 47 interior live oaks, and 7 valley oaks that meet the minimum 6-inch DSH size criteria to be Protected Native Oak Trees under the City Ordinance.

Heritage Trees
The survey area included 2 valley oak and 13 interior live oaks that meetthe minimum size criteria to Protected Heritage Trees under the City Ordinance.

Landmark Trees
Per conversations with the City Arborist, it was discovered that all trees within the JPA right-of- way along Folsom Boulevard between Bidwell Street and Blue Ravine were designated as a Landmark Grove by the City Council. Landmark trees may not be removed without prior declassification by the City Council. This designation includes every tree in the survey: 6 Black Walnuts, 1 Blue Oak, 65 lnterior Live Oaks, and 13 Valley Oaks (85 trees total).

Ghapter 3, Project lmpacts & Discussion

3.1. Tree lmpact Summary
ldentification of the extent of project activities and footprint that will affect project area trees were gained through direction of the SacRT with additional clarification provided by the project contractor. On January 19,2024 the City's Urban Forester and representatives from SacRT, the Contractor, and the Contractor supplied arborist walked the project alignment to review impacts to each tree. To aid in this effort, the Contractor's surveyor had marked the limits of trimming and ground disturbance. These are as follows:
. Trimming of all branches that overhang within 10 feet of the easternmost rail of the future tracks for the train envelope. lf this action would remove most of a tree's canopy, the tree will need to be removed.
. Removal of all trees rooted within the limits of future fill slopes and drainage ditches.

Of the 85 trees found within the Project Area, 1B must be removed and 39 must be trimmed. All 57 affected trees are in conflict with either permanent project features or access requirements during construction. The location of trees that will be impacted by the project are shown on Figure

4. Tree lmpacts. The remaining trees are located far enough away from proposed improvements that they can be protected in place for the duration of construction and will not need to be trimmed or removed.

3.2. Tree Trimming
As discussed above, 39 trees will need to be trimmed to complete the project to provide the legally required minimum clearances around the train envelope. During the January 19th site walk, the City Urban Forester reviewed each tree that will be trimmed and worked with the contractor tree company to determine which limbs were to be cut to preserve the natural form of the tree, minimize the amount of canopy lost to meet the project requirements. To the extent feasible, trimming will follow the City of Folsom Tree Care and Maintenance Standards with two notable exceptions. For trees 4844 and 4841, there is no way to preserve major limbs and non-standard stub cuts will be made. Trees that will be pruned are listed on the following table and included in Figure 3.

Chapter 3. Project lmpacts and Discussion

3.3. Tree Removal & Mitigation
A total of 1B trees need to be removed to complete the project. These trees are either rooted within the grading limits of the project or so much of the tree canopy would need to be trimmed that the tree is unlikely to survive or thrive after construction. During the January 19th sidewalk with the City Urban Forester, each of these trees was reviewed and found that they could not be saved. As part of a Designated Landmark Grove, each of these trees must first be declassified before it can be removed.

Compensatory mitigation for the 18 trees that must be removed will be required on an inch per inch basis before construction may proceed. Per the City ordinance, the extrapolated DSH is used to determine the mitigation needed for each tree. Table 6 below lists the trees that must be removed and the DSH replacement mitigation requirement.

Table 6. Mitigation Requirement
Under the City's tree ordinance, mitigation may take the form of on-site planting, payment of in- lieu fees, or preservation of existing protected trees measuring one-inch DSH or greater.

SacRT is electing to mitigate for the removal of 115 DSH inches by paying the in-lieu fee. Current in-lieu fees are $250/inch. ln-lieu fee payment is estimated to be $28,750.

RECOMMENDATION / CITY COUNCIL ACTION
The Environmental and Water Resources Department recommends the City Council pass and adopt Resolution No. 11220 - A Resolution Authorizing the City Manager to Execute Amendment No. 7 to the Memorandum of Agreement (Contract No. 174-21 18-087) Regarding Sharing of Costs for Legislative Advocacy Services Between San Juan Water District and the City of Folsom.

BACKGROUND / ISSUE
The City has been working with San Juan Water District (SJWD) pertaining to federal water- related advocacy services. Our agencies continue to work together as direct diverters from Folsom Dam and Reservoir on federal legislative advocacy related to funding and water supply. As direct diverters from Folsom Dam and Reservoir, our agencies share many cofllmon federal legislative advocacy interests that can impact federal funding and local water supplies.

InNovember2}IS,the City of Folsom entered into amemorandum of agreement (MOA) with San Juan Water District to engage The Ferguson Group (TFG) to continue lobbying efforts on behalf of the two partner agencies for a not to exceed fee of $30,000. In August 2020,the City executed Amendment No. 3 to the MOA, bringing the total contract amount to $36,000. The terms of the MOA have expired; however legislative advocacy is still necessary to address unforeseen Federal issues related to the Delta Plan, proposed Central Valley Project (CVP) re- 1 MEETING DATE: 719/2024
AGENDA SECTION: Consent Calendar
SUBJECT: Resolution No. 11220 - A Resolution Authoizing the City Manager to Execute Amendment No. 7 to the Memorandum of Agreement (Contract No. 174-21 l8-087) Regarding Sharing of Costs for Legislative Advocacy Services Between San Juan Water District and the City of Folsom
FROM: Environmental and Water Resources Department

07/09/2024 Item No.5.
operational plans, and policy renewal processes with the U.S. Bureau of Reclamation Municipal and Industrial allocations. All these issues may impact the operations and water system allocations at Folsom Dam and Reservoir.

In May 2016, the partner agencies began a Request for Proposal (RFP) process for federal lobbying services for Fiscal Year 2017 through 2019. Three proposals were received and reviewed. Through the RFP process, the Water Purveyors selected The Ferguson Group, LLC as the most qualified and experienced federal lobbying group to perform these services. The Ferguson Groups remains the most qualified and experienced federal lobbying group to represent the City's federal water related interests. Amendment No. 7 to the MOA will allow the partner agencies to continue to share financial and staff resources in Fiscal Year 2024-25 for federal advocacy water issues important to Folsom and San Juan Water District.

POLICY / RULE
In accordance with Chapter 2.36 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
During the past decade, City Council and staff have been continually involved in working with Federal elected officials and agencies on a number of issues of significant importance to the cities of Folsom and Roseville and the region. The Ferguson Group (TFG) has been under contract since 2002 with SJWD and the City of Folsom to represent issues related to water reliability projects atthe Folsom Reservoir. This effort has been very successful in having our concerns heard atthe Federal level. This amendment to the Memorandum of Agreement will provide water-related federal advocacy services through Fiscal Year 2024-25.

In January 20l6,the City of Folsom and San Juan Water District began a Request for Proposal (RFP) process for federal lobbying services for Fiscal Year 2017. The RFP allowed the agencies to continue to share financial and staff resources for federal advocacy issues important to Folsom and its partners. As agencies who share a common interest in water supply from Folsom Reservoir, federal advocacy remains a critical component to having the City's issues related to water supply reliability heard at the federal level. Through the RFP process, the partner agencies selected The Ferguson Group, LLC as the most qualified and experienced federal lobbying group to perform these services.

The Ferguson Group interacts regularly with the U.S. Bureau of Reclamation, the U.S. Army Corps of Engineers, and a myriad of other federal departments, bureaus, and agencies on behalf of the City
-
both in Washington, D.C. and locally. The Ferguson Group's strong relationships with key officials and staff members in these agencies are critical to the success of the City's federal lobbying program.

The Environmental and Water Resources Department recommends that the City Council authorize the City Manager to execute Amendment No. 7 to the Memorandum of Agreement 2 Page 78
07/09/2024 Item No.5.
(ContractNo. 174-21 18-087) Regarding Sharing of Costs for Legislative Advocacy Services Between San Juan Water District and the City of Folsom.

F'INANCIAL IMPACT
The City's cost share for continuing support of the lobbying effort is for an amount not to exceed $36,000 for Fiscal Year 2024-25. Funding for this work is budgeted and available in the 45 budget in the Water Operating Fund (Fund 520). Amendment No. 7 to the MOA will cover the City's share of services through June 30, 2025.

ENVIRONMENTAL REVIEW
The California Environmental Quality Act (CEQA) does not apply to activities that will not result in a direct or reasonably foreseeable indirect physical change in the environment (CEQA Guidelines $15061(b)(3). The Ferguson Group's contract work scope does not include the potential for a significant environmental effect, and therefore is not subject to CEQA.

07/09/2024 Item No.6.

In Decemb er 2022,through Resolution No. 10953, the City Council authorized renewal of the service agreement through June 2024.

More than 4,600 City of Folsom water customers are registered to use the Dropcountr platform and they have achieved an average 7%o rcduction in water use. The participation rate continues to increase as the City grows and State regulations for water use associated with drought mitigation and increased water use efficiency continue to be enforced.

Digital systems that support water management are part of a growing market, and new smart *ui"t applications offering more flexibility and different features are being developed. The Environmental and Water Resources Department wishes to continue providing the valuable services of the Dropcountr platform to Folsom water customers, but also wants the flexibility to take advantage of n"* technology in the future. The Department therefore recommends renewing the service agreement with Dropcountf, Inc. for two years.

POLICY / RULE
In accordance with Chapter 2.36 of theFolsom Municipal Code. supplies, equipment, services, and construction with a value of $73,209 or greater shall be awarded by City Council.

ANALYSIS

Dropcountr users are no longer limited to viewing monthly water usage on bills, but instead can view their daily and hourly use data. Information provided by Dropcountr enables customers to better understand data, monitor consumption and take action to save water and reduce their monthly bills. In addition to rebate information and water saving tips, users can receive notifications of sporadic or continuous flow leaks, enabling much faster leak identification and resolution. This product supports the customer service role of the Water Conservation division in its endeavors to assist customers conserye water.

The current service agreement with Dropcountr, Inc. expired on June 30,2024. To continue providing service to the City of Folsom, Dropcountr, Inc. requires that a subscription ugr."*"nt is signed. The proposed service agreement will support ongoing initiatives of the City of fotsom,-Environmental and Water Resources Department during a period of increasing need for water management due to drought conditions and on-going State regulation. Two payments of $66,000, one for Fiscal Yearr 2024-2025 and one for Fiscal Year 2025'2026) will "nr.t "
Folsom citizens have access to water use data, with enhanced features, for the remainder of this fiscal year.

F'INANCIA I,IMPACT
Renewal of the current service agreement with Dropcountr, Inc. costs $66,000 per year for the next two years, for a total of $132,000. Sufficient funds have been budgeted in the Water 2 Page 86

SUBJECT Resolution No. 1 1226 - A Resolution Authorizing the City Manager to Execute an Agreement with NTU Technologies, Inc. for the Purchase of Chemicals for the Water Treatment Plant FROM: Environmental and Water Resources Department

RECOMMENDATION / CITY COUNCIL ACTION
The Environmental and Water Resources Department recommends the City Council pass and adopt Resolution No. 11226 - A Resolution Authorizing the City Manager to Execute an Agreement with NTU Technologies, Inc. for the Purchase of Chemicals for the Water Treatment Plant.

BACKGROUND / ISSUE
The City of Folsom's Water Treatment Plant (WTP) utilizes surface water from Folsom Lake for water supply. The WTP is designed to produce 50 million gallon per day (mgd) of potable water.

The treatment processes include rapid mix, pretreatment with a conventional flocculation and sedimentation basin, and an Actiflo system for high rate clarification, a conventional sand/anthracite dual media filter, and solids handling facilities. In order to be consistent with State regulatory requirements and industry best management practices, the City uses a variety of chemicals to aid in the treatment process listed above. These chemicals are vital to these treatment processes.

Several of the chemicals used at the WTP have specific and proprietary properties that necessitate the City to contract directly with a company that can provide these chemicals to meet the City's water treatment requirements. These chemicals include:
1

07/09/2024 Item No.8.

This resolution will authorize the City Manager to execute an agreement with NTU Technologies, Inc. for the purchase of chemicals for use at the Water Treatment Plant.

B9LICY / RULE ,
In accordance with Chapter 2.36 of theFolsom Municipal Code. supplies, equipment, services, and construction with a value of $73,209 or greater shall be awarded by City Council.

ANALYSIS
When using coagulants, raw water properties can have a significant effect on the type of coagulant to use in the treatment process. These properties include alkalinity, water temperature, turbidity and filterability. These raw water quality properties are very different depending on the time of year, weather events such as storms and snow melt, and Folsom Lake turnover. Changes in the incoming raw water quality will affect settling rates in filters, sludge production, required chemical dosages, and pretreatment turbidity which can all impact the water quality of the treated water' In addition, City staff operates a conventional flocculation and sedimentation basin, a high rate Actiflo flocculation system, and a solids handling system that require specific chemical additions to properly treat the water. Using a polymer that can handle the wide range of these water properties eniering the WTP is important to the treatment operators to maintain consistent water quality.

The current chemicals used by the City in the treatment process are very successful in providing high water qualrty for the City's water customers. In order to maintain current water quality standards, att.y new chemicpls must also meet these standards. In order to ensure any new chemicals would be able to meet these standards, the City would have to perform various analytical tests to confirm the new polymer's ability to perform in a variety of conditions. The process for testing in all seasons of the year, after storm events, during snow melt, and high alkalinity water would be at least a year long process.

In addition to the analytical testing, the City operators would need to inform and follow the State Water Resources Control Board, Division of Drinking Water (DDW) requirements to confirm that changing chemicals would not adversely affect the water quality produced. A year long trial period to confirm the polymer performance, as well as a contingency plan, would be required by DDW.

Furthermore, the City uses specific proprietary chemicals from NTU Technologies at the WTP and receives quality product and good customer service. During calendar year 2018, operators optimized the treatment process, which led to reduced polymer usage throughout the system' Part oithir reduction was due to service and testing provided by NTU Technologies. NTU has a location in Davis, CA which allows for very quick response to any City problems and requests' EWR staff contacted five water providers in the area, including San Juan Water District, Placer County Water Agency, El Dorado Irrigation District, City of Roseville and City of West Sacramento to discuss chemical purchasing and usage. Through these discussions with other water providers in the area, it became clear that treatment process, water supply, quantity of chemicals purchased, chemical equipment, storage available, and chemical dose all affected which polymer was used at a specific plant. There was no correlation to directly compare polymer usage and pricing.

FROM: Parks and Recreation Department

07/09/2024 Item No.9.

In March 2017,the City Council awarded a contract to Kimley-Horn and Associates to prepare the environmental analysis and design/engineering plans (up to 30%o complete) for the Folsom Placerville Rail Trail project.

In December 2015, the project received a federal grant funding as part of Sacramento Area Council of Govemment (SACOG) Regional Active Transportation Funding Program. Using federal funds requires the project to comply with the National Environmental Policy Act (NEPA).

In June 2019, Caltrans approved the Preliminary Environmental Study (PES) for the project listing the various studies needed to comply with NEPA. Over the last four months, Caltrans has approved all the studies except the biological resources and cultural resources studies.

For the biological resources study, Caltrans' format and requirements have changed since work first started in20l9. Much of the original work must be redone and updated to reflect the Phase 2 water pipeline alignment, meet new requirements, and address new listed species.

The Rail Trail project follows the Phase 2water pipeline alignment from Oak Avenue to Iron Point Road. Most of the work for the cultural resources study has been completed, but the reports need to be resubmitted and meet current formatting requirements.

This contract amendment would fund Kimley-Horn and Associates to complete the biological and cultural resources studies and navigate the required consultation periods with U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service and State Historic Preservation Officer.

POLICY / RULE
In accordance with Chapter 2.36 of the Folsom Municipal Code, public works projects or purchases costing $73,209 or greater shall be awarded by the City Council.

ANALYSIS
On December 3,2015, the SACOG Board approved the City's grant application to the Regional Active Transportation Funding Program, awarding $1,048,036 to provide partial funding for environmental, preliminary design, and construction of the Folsom Placerville Rail Trail. The original scope of work for Kimley-Hom and Associates included environmental and preliminary engineering design services to develop plans up to 30o/o complete. Staff is now seeking to fully fund the project for design/engineering and construction through the Active Transportation Program (ATP) Cycle 6 Medium Infrastructure grant application.

The Folsom-Placerville Rail Trail Contract Amendment No. 1 authorized Kimley-Horn and Associates to prepare additional environmental studies requested by Caltrans during the environmental review phase of the project. The Folsom-Placerville Rail Trail Contract AmendmentNo. 2 authorized additional services from Kimley-Horn and Associates to prepare the Initial StudyAvlitigated Negative Declaration. Contract Amendment No. 3 authorized Kimley-Horn and Associates to assist the City with the preparation of a grant application for the ATP Cycle 6 Medium Infrastructure grant. Contract Amendment No. 4 authorizes 2Page 100
07/09/2024 Item No.9.
additional services to prepare the NEPA biological and cultural resources studies and consultations for the proposed project.

The cost for the extra work associated with the proposed grant assistance services is $71,600 for an updated total contract amount not-to-exceed $384,167.

FINANCIAL IMPACT
The City Council approved Resolution No. 9895 at the March 28,2017 City Council meeting authorizing the City Manager to execute an agreement with Kimley-Horn for design services for the Folsom Placerville Rail Trail Project (Project PKl604) for a total amount not to exceed $262,765.

RECOMMENDATION / CITY COUNCIL ACTION
Stuff r"ro*-ends the City Council approve Resolution No. 1 1229 - A Resolution Authorizing the City Manager to Execute AmendmentNo. 1 to the Contract with Kimley- Horn and Associates, Inc. for Mangini Ranch Trails Project Design and Engineering (Contract No. 173-21 17 -054).

BACKGROUND / ISSUE
Th" M""gtrt Ra""h Trails Project is located within the Folsom Plan Area Specific Plan (FPASP), specifically in the Mangini Ranch area bounded by Alder Creek Parkway to the north, Oid placerville Road to the east, East Bidwell Street to the west, and White Rock Road to the south. The FPASP includes over 30 miles of planned trails. Currently, there are approximately 5 miles of trails already constructed in the FPA. With the recent construction oii*o phases of the Mangini Ranch development and future phases underway, staff has commenced with process to design and engineer additional trail segments within the Mangini Ranch development to connect to parks, schools, and other FPA neighborhoods. It is anticipated that approximately 3 miles of trails will be designed and engineered at this time.

The trail alignments through this new residential development were approved as part of the FPASP and the Mangini Ranch development project approvals.

In Septemb er 202l,the City Council awarded a contract to Kimley-Horn and Associates to prepare the desigrVengineering plans for the Folsom Plan Area Mangini Ranch Trails project. ihe original contract was to procure specialized professional services to design and engineer the proposed trails. After completing the design of the trails, a separate process will be 1 MEETING DATE: 71912024

07/09/2024 Item No.10.
initiated to solicit bids from licensed contractors to construct the Mangini Ranch Trails Project.

Contract Amendment No. I would include two additional Class I trail improvement areas to the Mangini Ranch Trails project that were outside of the original contract scope of services with Kimley-Horn and Associates. One of the new areas will continue the Class I trail constructed by a developer north of the SMUD substation to connect to the existing Class I trail to the east, crossing the former Old Placerville Road and existing Sacramento Placerville Transportation Corridor (SPTC) Joint Powers Authority (JPA) railroad tracks. The other area will continue the Class I trail on the east side parallel to the railroad tracks from the existing Class I trail south of Grand Prairie to White Rock Road (approximately 2,400 feet in length).

POLICY / RIII,E
In accordance with Sections 2.36.090(A)(1) and 2.36.120 of the Folsom Municipal Code, professional services are not subject to competitive sealed bidding requirements, and those costing 573,209 or greater shall be awarded by the City Council.

ANALYSIS
A topographic survey is necessary to complete the design of the class I trail crossing of the railroad tracks, while the extension of the Class I trail south to White Rock Road will be completed using scaled aerial imagery. The developer provided horizontal and vertical as- built plans were incomplete when the project topographic survey was conducted in 2022, therefore, requiring additional topographic survey for the two Class I trail segment areas.

Due to changes in design direction and work completed by developers that was not fully known at the time of the original contract, the project did not require nor complete the structural and geotechnical scope of services in the original contract. This contract amendment is intended to document these scope reductions. The budget for these tasks in the original contract (Task 2.2 and Subtask 2.2.1, respectively) was agreed to be reallocated to other design tasks and has been expanded.

The original contract with Kimley-Horn and Associates was $180,240, and this amount is included within the FY 2024-25 Capital lmprovement Plan budget. The contract amendment for the two new Class I trail segments is $31,734, for an updated total contract amount not- to-exceed $211,974

FINANCIAL IMPACT
ftte City Council approved Resolution No. 10681 at the September 14,202I City Council meeting authorizing the City Manager to execute an agreement with Kimley-Horn and Associates for planning and design services for the Folsom Plan Area Mangini Ranch Trails Project (Project Pl<2201). The project is included in the Capital Improvement Plan with a Fiscal Year 2024-25 total project budget of $3,380,240.

The Parks and Recreation Department recommends that Contract Amendment No. 1, which provides project design and engineering services, be executed with Kimley-Horn for $31,734 2Page 104

for a new contract total amount not-to-exceed $211,974. Sufficient funds are budgeted and available in the Folsom Plan Area Mangini Ranch Trails Project (Project PK220l) budget for the cost of the amendment.

ENVIRONMENTAL REVIEW
ftt" City, as lead agency, previously certified an EIR/EIS for the Folsom Plan Area Specific Plan (FPASP). Subsequently, the City determined that the Mangini Ranch Subdivision project, including the future Mangini Ranch Trails, was entirely consistent with the FPASP.

In reviewing this project, staff has determined that none of the events specified in Public Resources Code section2ll66 has occurred. Therefore, the proposed project is exempt from CEQA as previously determined per Government Code section65457 and CEQA Guidelines section 15182.

RECOMMENDATION / CITY COUNCIL ACTION
Staff recommends that the City Council receive the annual report for use of 'military' type equipment and approve ResolutionNo. ll23l - A Resolution Renewing Ordinance No. 1326 and Determining That Specified "Military Equipment" IJsed by the Folsom Police Department has Complied with Standards for Approval Set Forth in State Law.

BACKGROUND / ISSUE
On May 24th,2022, City Council first approved the use of certain 'military' type equipment to be in compliance with Assembly Bill 481, which as of 2022, 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. Ordinance 1326 was renewed by the Council on June 27,2023.

MEETING DATE: 71912024

SUBJECT: Receive Annual Report regarding Police Use of Military Type Equipment and Approve Resolution No. ll23l - 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
I

07/09/2024 Item No.12.

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.

POLICY / RULE
Annual Report
In accordance with Folsom Police Policy 707 andAssembly Bill 481 an annual report must be submitted to City Council. The requirements for the annual report are (in summary):
o Annual report submitted to City Council, summarizing how the equipment was used. o The annual report must be made public.
. The results of any intemal 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 year, 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 altemative 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, the 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. 2 Page 112
07/09/2024 Item No.12.

ANALYSIS
Annual Report
The Police Department utilized several of the items listed in City of Folsom Ordinance 1326 as well as Folsom Police Policy 707 over the last year. These items were used in a variety of incidents including but not limited to: barricaded subjects, high risk incidents, critical incidents, high risk buitding entries, felony vehicle stops, suspect searches, missing person searches, outside agency assistance, training, etc.

Number of operational uses per applicable items:

1. Armored Vehicle (Bearcat)- 13

2. Drone (all)- 13

3. Tactical Robot (Robotex Avatar)- 1

J Page 113
07/09/2024 Item No.12.

The Police Department received one community complaint related to the use of drones and the display of SWAT Rifles during a search warrant. The complaint was investigated and determined to be unfounded.

Once submitted, a copy of this report will be placed on the Police Department's website.

In June 2024,the Police Department replaced the current Less Lethal Munition Launchers with Defense Technology 40 mm launchers and required munitions. The Launcher is slated for deployment by the Patrol Division and the SWAT Team. This device boasts several features that render it superior and safer compared to the current launcher in deployment. Equipped with a rifled barrel, it facilitates more precise shot placement and ensures consistent velocities.

Notably, it is lighter and more compact than its predecessor, allowing for direct deployment from patrol vehicles. Moreover, it offers the flexibility of both standard range (5-40 meters) and extended range (10-70 meters), thereby expanding the safe distance for engaging aggressive, non-compliant individuals without direct contact. These items have not been authorized for use pending the required training and approval of this report. The current less lethal munition launcher will be taken out of service pending approval of this report and the required training for our personnel.

The Police Department does intend on acquiring a new tacticalrobot within the next reporting period. The current robot is outdated and in need of replacement. The Police Department was awarded a Homeland Security grant which will cover the entire cost of the robot but is currently awaiting delivery of the award letter. 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 equipment" 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 1326, all swom 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 4 Page 114
07/09/2024 Item No.12.
application of any military type equipment. These policies, procedures, and training requirements are all reflected in Police Policy 707 and no 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 seatches, 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.

ENVIRONMENTAL REVIEW
The California Environmental Quality 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 arc not otherwise considered a 'oproject" as defined by Public Resources Code $ 21065. (CEQA Guidelines $ 15061(c)(3) and $ 15378.) The Council's decision regarding renewal of Ordinance 1326 meets the above criteria and is not subject to CEQA. No environmental review is required.

F'INANCIAL IMPACT
The estimated yearly financial impact of listed items (training and operational), including maintenance costs during this reporting period was approximately $15,165'

for a2.14-acre parcel (Lot2) from A-1-A to R-I-ML for the 1000 East Natoma Rezone to Residential project
(Introduction and First Reading)
FROM: Community Development Department

RECOMMENDATION / CITY COUNCIL ACTION
Move to Introduce and Conduct First Reading of Ordinance No. 1346 - An Uncodified Ordinance to amend the zoning district for a2.47-acre parcel (Lot 1, Assessor Parcel Number 071-1970-003) from R-I-ML (Residential, Single-Family Dwelling, Medium Lot pistrict) and A-1-A (Agricultural-Reserve District) to R-l-ML and to amend the zoning district for a2.14-acre parcel (Lot2, Assessor Parcel Number 071-1970-004) from A-l-A to R-I-ML for the 1000 East Natoma Rezone to Residential project (Introduction and First Reading).

BACKGROUND / ISSUE
The subjectparcels are located at 1000 and 1010 EastNatoma Street, onthe north side of East Natoma Street, east of the intersection of Briggs Ranch Road/Folsom Point Road and EastNatoma Street. Single-family residential development is located to the south and east, with a church use to the west across Folsom Point Road, and the Folsom Lake State Recreation Area abuts the parcels to the north. The parcels have rolling topography, with driveways from both Folsom Point Road and East Natoma Street serving the parcels. 1000 East Natoma is developed with a3,870 square foot single-family residence built in 1980 and 1010 East Natoma with a 1,200 square foot garage with an unknown build date.

07/09/2024 Item No.13.

In2003, a Director-level Design Review for minor improvements to the residence at 1000 East Natoma was approved (Project Number AR03-00236). Minor building permits have been approved over the ensuing 20 years for general residential maintenance. The parcels were sold to the current owners in 201S and used as rental property. In2020, City staff were made aware that the residence at 1000 East Natoma was being used as a short-term rental and event venue, though their business license for that location was only for a property rental. Multiple violation notices were issued over the next few years for noise and use complaints. In 2023, the owners were informed by staff that continued use of the property as a vacation rental andlor event center would require rezoning the property and approval of a Conditional Use Permit.

Rather than pursue entitlements to legitimize current uses, the owners decided to place the parcels up for sale. City staff were approached by representatives of a religious congregation (Foundation Lutheran) in early 2024to discuss whether a church could be established onthe site. Staff informed the representatives that the current zoning of A-1-A that covers most of the site does not allow church use. However, a rezoning to a residential zone, such as R-l-ML, which does permit churches with a use permit, would be supported as it would make the zoning consistent with the site's General Plan land use designation of SF (Single Family). The representatives moved forward with submitting a request to rezone the parcels to R-I-ML and are undergoing pre-application review for a proposed church facility on the site.

On May 15,2024, the Planning Commission held a public hearing to consider the 1000 East Natoma Rezone to Residential project. The Commission asked if this rezoning would impact any active agricultural uses or require a rezoning of other properties to make up for the loss of agriculturally zonedland. Staff confirmed that the properties are not used for agricultural purposes, and that there is no requirement to rezone other properties to make up for the reduction of agriculturally zoned land. Staff further clarified that the intent of the A-1-A zoning district is to provide areas for interim agricultural or livestock grazing uses until services are available to support urban development, which is the case in this situation. There were no public comments on the proposal, and the Planning Commission voted 6-0-1 (one Commissioner absent) to recommend approval of the request, based on the findings included in the Planning Commission report.

POLICY / RULE
Per the requirements of Government Code Section 65860, a city's zoning ordinance must be consistent with its general plan. If a zoning ordinance is inconsistent with a general plan, the zoning ordinance should be amended within a reasonable time so that it is consistent with the general plan.

Folsom Municipal Code (EMO Sections 17.68.040 and 17.68.050 require that applications for rezones be forwarded to the City Council for final action with a recommendation from the Planning Commission.

ANALYSIS
Conformance with Relevant General Plan Goals and Policies 2 Page 166
07/09/2024 Item No.13.

The City of Folsom General Plan (2035) outlines a number of goals, policies, and implementation programs designed to guide the physical, economic, and environmental growth of the City. Staff has determined that the proposed project is consistent with the General Plan goals and policies as outlined and discussed below:

GP POUCY LU LI.I (Zoning Ordinance)
Ensure that the Folsom Zoning Ordinance is consistent with the policies and programs of the General Plan.

Analysis: The proposed project is consistent with this policy in that it includes rezoning the project site from R-l-ML and A-1-A to R-l-ML. The General Plan designation of SF allows for 2 to 4 dwelling units per acre. The A-1-A zoning district requires a minimum lot size of 50 acres and restricts urban development. The R-I-ML zoning district, in contrast, requires a minimum lot size of 10,000 square feet, which would allow up to four dwelling units per acre. Changing the zoning on the project site to R-l-ML both cleans up the error of two zoning districts on one lot and allows for the type of development density contemplated by the SF designation.

GP POUCY LU 6.1.1 (Complete Neighborhoods)
Encourage the establishment of "complete neighborhoods" that integrate schools, childcare centers, parks, shopping and employment centers, and other amenities.

Analysis: The proposed project is consistent with this policy in that the project includes rczoning the project site from R-l-ML and A-1-A to R-l-ML. The uses permitted in the A-1-A zoning district are limited to agricultural and livestock grazing and accessory residential. The R-I-ML zoning district, in contrast, allows single-family residential uses by rigtrt and conditionally permits uses such as schools, golf courses, and churches that can serye as amenities to the surrounding residential neighborhoods. Changing the zoning on the project site to R-1-ML allows for the potential for a more "complete neighborhood" as encouraged by this General Plan policy.

General Plan and ins Consistencv
The General Plan land use designation for the two parcels is SF (Single Family) and the zoning districts are R-l-ML and A-1-A for 1000 East Natoma Street, and A-1-A for 1010 East Natoma Street. The existing General Plan land use designation (SF) and the existing zoning district of A- 1-A are not consistent with each other as the SF General Plan land use designation is intended to provide opportunities for development of single-family detached homes and single-family attached homes, while the A-1-A zoning district was established to provide areas for interim agricultural and livestock grazing uses until such time as community services are available for urban development. As described in the background section of this staff report, the project site is developed with one single family residence on APN 071-1970-003 and an outbuilding on APN 071-1970-004. The two parcels have been sold and used together, despite parcelization in 1981.

Adjacent parcels along East Natoma Street have General Plan land use (SF to the west and SFHD fSingle Family High Density] to the east) and zoning (R-I-ML to the west and R-l-M (PD) [Single Family Residential - Small Lot/Planned Development]) districts to the west that are consistent with aJ Page 167
07/09/2024 Item No.13.
each other. Images of the site and the zoning districts of the surrounding parcels are provided as attachments to the Planning Commission staff report (Attachmerrt2 6 this report). The proposed tezone to change the zoning for the subject parcels from R-1-ML/A-1-A and A-1-A would result in the General Plan land use and the zoning districts being consistent with each other in the same manner as adjacent properties to the west.

Further, residential development was contemplated for this site as demonstrated by the SF General Plan land use designation The proposed rezone is warranted to remove the split zoning on the project site and allow for the urban development called for inthe parcel's existing SF General Plan designation. Staff determined that development allowed by the proposed R-I-ML zoning, either by right or with a Conditional Use Permit, would be compatible with existing land uses in the project arca and that the request is consistent with all relevant General Plan goals and policies.

Finally, urban services (water and sewer) are available to the property, which negates the need to retain the A- I -A zoning district. As a result, staff is supportive of the rezone.

F'INANCIAL IMPACT
No financial impact is anticipated with approval of the tezorte

ENVIRONMENTAL REVIEW
An Environmental Impact Report was previously approved for the City of Folsom General Plan on August 28,2018,in accordance with the requirements of the California Environmental Quality Act (CEQA). Staff has determined that no new impacts will result from the proposed project that were not akeady considered with the previous approval because the General Plan land use designation for both parcels is already SF. The project therefore does not require additional environmental review under Section 15183 (Projects Consistent with a Community Plan, General Plan, or Zoning) of the CEQA Guidelines. Further, per the requirements of Government Code Section 65860, residential development is already allowed as permitted by the SF General Plan land use designation even though the current agricultural zoning conflicts with the SF designation.

This eliminates the need to analyze potential impacts from a possible increase in density due to the proposed rezone. Finally, any new site development is discretionary and would require subsequent project-specific CEQA review.
