STAFF REPORT
City Council Consent Calendar Agenda Item
DATE: May 2, 2022
TO: Honorable Mayor and Council Members
FROM: Cameron Mull, Parks & Recreation Director
THROUGH: Merritt Perry, City Manager
SUBJECT: Approval of MOU between City of Fortuna and Mad River Girls Fastpitch Softball Association for Park Facility Use
STAFF RECOMMENDATION:
Approve the Memorandum of Understanding (MOU) between City of Fortuna and Mad River Girls Fastpitch Softball Association (MRGFSA) for use of softball fields and associated facilities.
EXECUTIVE SUMMARY:
The non-profit youth MRGFSA has been utilizing the City’s softball fields for practices and games for multiple years, however an agreement or MOU has not been established to-date (only annual facility rental applications), though the user group has been previously approved as exempt from park use-fees per the City’s Fee Schedule. The purpose of the MOU (attached) is to clarify and outline the responsibilities of each involved party. This MOU will allow MRGFSA use of the various facilities from March 1 to June 30 each year, however the MOU outlines that the City reserves the right to use said park facilities at the City’s discretion for other uses, if needed.
The majority of facility use by MRGFSA would be at Newburg Park’s two softball fields and the main cook shack for serving concessions during practices and/or games. The Bartow Field in Rohner Park and its associated cook shack would be used once annually for MRGFSA’s jamboree tournament.
Similar to any other user-group for use of all City facilities, MRGFSA is required to provide insurance to the City during the MOU term. The MOU outlines a trade of services for field use, in that MRGFSA would be responsible for an annual deep-cleaning of the Newburg Park cook shack performed by a professional cleaning service, assistance with repairs to the Newburg cook shack (as needed), a minimum of a $500 annual donation for the purchase of infield red-rock, and being responsible for the addition of any field modifications specific to girls Fastpitch (approved by the Parks & Recreation Director).
Consent Calendar Item 4c
FISCAL IMPACT:
There will be multiple Park staff hours spent on field prep prior to and during the term of the agreement, as well as utility costs (water and ballfield lights) associated with field use.
Additionally, there are janitorial costs associated with the added park use, as well as fuel costs to operate equipment for the field prep, and administrative hours spent scheduling field use.
MRGFSA will be supplementing some costs with their own funds, including supporting annual purchases of a minimum of $500 of infield (red rock) material for optimal field conditions, an annual professional cleaning of the Newburg Park cook shack, and paying for any field modifications specific to their use.
RECOMMENDED BOARD ACTION:
Staff recommends that the City Council approve the MOU between City of Fortuna and MRGFSA for park facility use.

STAFF REPORT
City Council Consent Calendar Agenda Item
DATE: May 2, 2022
TO: Honorable Mayor and Council Members
FROM: Brendan Byrd, Public Works Director/City Engineer THROUGH: Merritt Perry, City Manager
SUBJECT: Approval of Professional Services Contract Task Order for the 12th Street Stormwater Enhancement Project (CIP 9101)
STAFF RECOMMENDATION:
Review staff report for approval of a professional services task order for the 12th Street Stormwater Enhancement Project (CIP# 9101).
EXECUTIVE SUMMARY:
The City has an on call contract with GHD Inc. for various professional services, including stormwater design and construction engineering. Staff is requesting the use of this on call contract to award the design and construction phases of work for the City’s 12th Street Stormwater Enhancement Project (Project). The project would include installing new storm drains and raingardens in various locations along 12th Street, in between K Street and Loni Drive. Additionally, a large raingarden feature would be installed along the southern boundary of the High School parking area.
As noted in further detail below, this project will be funded primarily though a Proposition 1 grant that the City received through the State Water Resources Control Board (State Board). The grant application and current 60% design plans were developed by GHD, and therefore their project team is best suited to complete the design and construction engineering portions of the work. Staff have also verified that awarding the professional services contract through the City’s existing on-call contract meets the procurement guidelines of the grant agreement with the State Board.
With approval from Council, staff will work with GHD to finalize the attached scope of work for the project in an amount not to exceed the project-funding limit as written in the grant agreement.
Staff anticipates this project going to construction during the summer of 2023.
FINANCIAL IMPACT:
The project is funded principally by a Proposition 1 grant from the State Board in the amount of $945,850, with an additional $105,150 of City local fund match (the match is 10% of the total project cost). The City matching funds have been budgeted through a mixture of Measure E funds and Wastewater Capital Reserve, the latter of which was a result of a supplemental environmental project with the State Board.
Consent Agenda Item 4d.
The professional services contract with GHD would be charged in varying amounts to all funding sources, dependent on the project phase as outlined in the City’s grant agreement. The total professional services contract amount requested for authorization is $190,000, which is the total amount as outlined in the City’s current grant agreement with the state.

SUBJECT: Memorandum of Understanding - Humboldt County Drug Task Force STAFF RECOMMENDATION:
Staff recommends Council review and approve the updated Humboldt County Drug Task Force Memorandum of Understanding between participating agencies.
EXECUTIVE SUMMARY:
On Wednesday, April 13, 2022, the executive board of the Humboldt County Drug Task Force (HCDTF) voted unanimously to accept all updates to the joint Memorandum of Understanding (MOU). The purpose of the MOU is to set forth the responsibilities of the participating agencies as they relate to the HCDTF. Working in collaboration, participating agencies will enforce the controlled substance laws of the State of California, found in the California Health and Safety Code. Applicable federal laws relating to the trafficking of controlled substances are also enforced.
The task force concept ensures well-coordinated narcotic enforcement regionally, and increase the flow of narcotic related intelligence information between the various law enforcement agencies throughout Humboldt County.
Trafficking and abuse of drugs in the United States affects nearly all aspects of life within the community. The economic cost alone is immense and the damage caused by drug abuse and addiction can be seen in an overburdened justice system, strained healthcare system, lost productivity, and environmental destruction. HCDTF’s ability to reduce the impact of drug crimes through investigation of individuals and organizations involved in narcotics trafficking and organized crime is imperative to the overall safety of the community. The integration of the Fortuna Police Officer with HCDTF provides the resources needed to enhance public safety in the Eel River Valley by reducing drug related crimes and the byproduct of threats to public safety caused by illicit drug trafficking. In addition, the City of Fortuna receives equitable sharing of asset seizure funds through Fortuna Police Department’s participation in HCDTF.
FINANCIAL IMPACT:
No fiscal impact.
RECOMMENDED COUNCIL ACTION:
Approve the Humboldt County Drug Task Force Memorandum of Understanding. Consent Agenda vote.

STAFF REPORT
City Council Business Agenda Item
DATE: May 2, 2022
TO: Honorable Mayor and Council Members
FROM: Casey Day, Chief of Police; and Ryan Plotz, City Attorney THROUGH: Merritt Perry, City Manager
SUBJECT: Military Equipment Use Policy
STAFF RECOMMENDATION:
Staff recommends that the Council hold a public hearing and conduct a second reading and adopt Ordinance No. 2022-753.
EXECUTIVE SUMMARY:
On September 30, 2021, Governor Newsom signed into law Assembly Bill 481 (“AB 481”), which among other things, adds Chapter 12.8 to Division 7 of Title 1 to the California Government Code providing certain requirements for the funding, acquisition, and use of military equipment, as that term is defined in AB 481, by the Fortuna Police Department.
Principally, AB 481 requires the City to adopt a written policy governing the use and acquisition of military equipment (defined below). The policy must address each of the following items:
(1) A description of each type of military equipment, the quantity sought, its capabilities, expected lifespan, and product descriptions from the manufacturer of the military equipment.
(2) The purposes and authorized uses for which the law enforcement agency or the state agency proposes to use each type of military equipment. (3) The fiscal impact of each type of military equipment, including the initial costs of obtaining the equipment and estimated annual costs of maintaining the equipment. (4) The legal and procedural rules that govern each authorized use. (5) The training, including any course required by the Commission on Peace Officer Standards and Training, that must be completed before any officer, agent, or employee of the law enforcement agency or the state agency is allowed to use each specific type of military equipment to ensure the full protection of the public's welfare, safety, civil rights, and civil liberties and full adherence to the military equipment use policy.
Business Agenda Item 5a
(6) The mechanisms to ensure compliance with the military equipment use policy, including which independent persons or entities have oversight authority, and, if applicable, what legally enforceable sanctions are put in place for violations of the policy.
(7) The procedures by which members of the public may register complaints or concerns or submit questions about the use of each specific type of military equipment, and how the law enforcement agency will ensure that each complaint, concern, or question receives a response in a timely manner.
AB 481 outlines a multi-step process for the Council to formally adopt a military equipment use policy. The principle steps (and anticipated completion dates) are as follows:
(1) Submit a proposed Military Equipment Use Policy to the City Council – March 7, 2022, Regular Meeting.

(4) Second reading and adoption of Ordinance approving Policy at continued public hearing/regular – May 2, 2022.
The purpose of this Agenda Item is to complete step “3”, above. Notice of this public hearing was published in the manner required by law.

In order for the Fortuna Police Department to continue the use of any military equipment that was acquired prior to January 1, 2022, the City Council must begin the approval process (explained above) no later than May 1, 2022. Thereafter, the required policy must be adopted and in place prior to engaging in the following activities:
Business Agenda Item 5a
(1) Requesting military equipment made available pursuant to Section 2576a of Title 10 of the United States Code.
(2) Seeking funds for military equipment, including, but not limited to, applying for a grant, soliciting or accepting private, local, state, or federal funds, in-kind donations, or other donations or transfers.

(7) Acquiring military equipment through any means not provided by AB 481.
The military equipment use policy must be a publicly released, written document governing the use of military equipment by the Police Department that addresses, at a at a minimum the items described in the Executive Summary, above. The proposed Policy addresses each of the requirements.
The City Council must make certain determinations before it approves a military equipment use policy per Government Code 7071(d)(1). Those findings are as follows: (i) the military equipment is necessary because there is no reasonable alternative that can achieve the same objective of officer and civilian safety; (ii) the proposed military equipment use policy will safeguard the public's welfare, safety, civil rights, and civil liberties; (iii) if purchasing the equipment, the equipment is reasonably cost effective compared to available alternatives that can achieve the same objective of officer and civilian safety; (iv) prior military equipment use complied with the military equipment use policy that was in effect at the time, or if prior uses did not comply with the accompanying military equipment use policy, corrective action has been taken to remedy nonconforming uses and ensure future compliance.
Staff recommends that Council find that each of the above determinations are met with respect to the military equipment use policy.
Following adoption of the initial Policy, the Council will annually review a report submitted by the Police Chief that contains:
(1) A summary of how the military equipment was used and the purpose of its use. (2) A summary of any complaints or concerns received concerning the military equipment.
Business Agenda Item 5a

Business Agenda Item 5b
STAFF REPORT
City Council Business Agenda Item
DATE: May 2, 2022
TO: Honorable Mayor and Councilmembers
FROM: Liz Shorey, Deputy Director of Community Development THROUGH: Merritt Perry, City Manager
SUBJECT: Public Hearing to Consider Amendments to the General Plan Land Use Map from Residential Low (RL) to Residential Medium (R-M), and the Fortuna Zoning Map from Residential Single Family (R-1-6) to Residential Multifamily (R-M); Location: 809 12th Street and 806 13th Street; APNs: 040-043-021 and 040-043-016; Applicant: Tyler Franklin; Ordinance 2022-754 STAFF RECOMMENDATION:
Staff recommends that the City Council amend the General Plan Land Use Map from Residential Low (RL) to Residential Medium (R-M) and the Fortuna Zoning Map from Residential Single Family (R-1-6) to Residential Multifamily (R-M) by adopting Resolution 2022-13 and Ordinance2022-754.
EXECUTIVE SUMMARY:
The applicant has submitted a request to rezone 806 13th Street from Residential Single Family (R1-6) to Residential Multifamily (R-M) in order to convert the existing residence to a 4-plex. City staff recommends also including in the rezone the neighboring parcel to the west (809 12th Street), as it is an existing non-conforming 4-plex. Both parcels are located on the north side of N Street (between 12th and 13th streets), adjoining the City’s Downtown district. Approval of a rezone would also require a General Plan map amendment from Residential Low (RL) to Residential Medium (RM) in order to maintain general plan consistency.
The area under consideration consists of two parcels, summarized as follows:
Assessor Parcel No.: 040-043-021 040-043-016
Address: 809 12th Street 806 13th Street
Parcel Size: 6,600 square feet 6,600 square feet
Existing General Plan: Residential Low (RL) Residential Low (RL) Proposed General Plan: Residential Multifamily (R-M) Residential Multifamily (R-M) Existing Zoning: Residential Single Family (R-1-6) Residential Single Family (R-1-6) Proposed Zoning: Residential Medium (R-M) Residential Medium (R-M) Business Agenda Item 5b
Existing Land Use: Four units One unit
Proposed Land Use: No change Four units
Proposed Project
The proposed map amendments would change the principal land use activity from single-family residential to multifamily. The residence at 809 12th Street contains four living units, which are allowed as a legal nonconforming use (FMC 17.06.130). The residence at 806 13th Street has operated as a group care home in the past, and has most recently been used as a single-family residence, a principally permitted activity. The applicant/property owner is requesting a rezone to allow the two-story building at 806 13th Street to be remodeled to allow four living units, including two 2-bedroom units and two 3-bedroom units (see attached floor plans). After the rezone, the multifamily units would be a principally permitted activity, with no special permit required except for design review approval for any proposed exterior changes.
Location
Zoning to the north is Residential Single Family (R-1-6) and Retail Commercial (R-C) to the south.
Surrounding activities consist of residential single-family activities to the north of N Street, single family to the east, commercial/office to the west, and mixed use commercial and residential activities to the south in the Downtown Retail Commercial (R-C) zone.
Neighborhood Compatibility
Each parcel is developed with a two-story Craftsman-style structure that complements the period architecture of the Downtown area (see attached street view images). This housing style has the appearance of a medium-sized single-unit house, and is compatible in scale with the single-family zone to the north, creating a seamless transition between the Downtown commercial activities and the single-family neighborhood. These are ideal for conversion to four-plexes as proposed, with simple conversion to two units on the ground floor and two above, with shared or individual entries from the street. They also fill the demand for affordable housing in walkable neighborhoods with dining and shopping amenities, as well as other commercial services and transit options, are responsive to changing demographics, and offer affordable housing to low to moderate income individuals and small families.
Because these lots were built in the early 20th century pre-automobile style, there is reduced opportunities for on-site provision of parking. At this location, there is the ample street frontage along three streets (N, 12th and 13th streets). These 4-plexes would typically not have more than a total of eight cars (two per unit). Each site would have three to four on-site parking spaces accessed by the alley, and street parking will provide up to seven spaces for each building, for a total of 11 spaces per 4-plex building. In addition, households with fewer cars (such as single or retired renters and those with smaller households) are typically attracted to this type of walkable housing style adjacent to the Downtown area where they can enjoy the nearby urban amenities.

RESOLUTION NO. 2022-13
A RESOLUTION OF THE FORTUNA CITY COUNCIL AMENDING THE
GENERAL PLAN LAND USE MAP FROM RESIDENTIAL LOW (RL) TO
RESIDENTIAL MEDIUM (R-M)
WHEREAS, an application has been submitted by Tyler Franklin to rezone 806 13th Street (APN 040-043-021) to Residential Multifamily to allow conversion of the single family residence to a multifamily four-plex and amend the General Plan from Residential Low to Residential Medium; and
WHEREAS, the availability of housing is a substantial concern for individuals of all demographics, ages, and economic backgrounds in communities throughout the State of California; and
WHEREAS, multifamily projects of this type adjacent to the Downtown area offer lower cost housing to meet the needs of the existing and future residents while maintaining compatibility with the existing single-family neighborhoods; and
WHEREAS, the City Council of the City of Fortuna has the authority to approve and amend the land use designations of parcels from one General Plan designation to another in order to address unforeseen circumstances and changing priorities; and
WHEREAS, the Fortuna General Plan 2030 Housing Element includes policies and programs to support and create affordable housing, a diverse range of housing types and provisions for updated accessory dwelling unit zoning standards, including the following:
H-1.1 Continue to encourage the development and provision of a variety of housing choices, including residential types, tenancies, sizes, locations, and prices, for all economic groups.
WHEREAS, amending the Fortuna General Plan Land Use Map from Residential Low Density (RL) to Residential Medium (RM) will be in the public interest and will not be detrimental to the public health, safety, or general welfare pursuant because it will fill the demand for affordable housing in walkable neighborhoods with nearby dining, shopping, commercial, and transit services, are responsive to changing demographics, and will not result in a significant change in development patterns of the neighborhood, and there will be negligible increase in traffic, noise, or other activities that would otherwise create hazards or nuisances, and
1. The land use designations of Residential Low and Central Business District have similar types of allowable residential activities that would result in a similar rate of vehicle trips. The proposed amendment will not result in a significant change in activities, and therefore the change itself will not be detrimental to the public interest, health, safety, convenience, or welfare of the City.
2. Adjoining uses are a mix of residential and commercial in nature, and include retail and office uses on surrounding sides. The proposed use is compatible with the surrounding area. The existing building has historically been used for residential Business Agenda Item 5b
activities, including a group care home, and a single-family residence. The proposed multifamily use will result in traffic volumes or noise levels similar to the existing or previous residential uses.
3. The parcel is located on N Street, designated in the General Plan as a Collector street, suitable for directing traffic from neighboring residential uses and commercial uses on N Street. The facility will generate a level of traffic that is not expected to impair the existing public roadway, affect roadway design, or increase the Level of Service (LOS) above LOS C, considered acceptable by the General Plan.
4. The site is suitable for residential multifamily uses as it is developed with over-sized residential buildings that are ample for multifamily developments, and with sufficient on-site and street parking to serve the uses and avoid impacts to the local circulation system.
WHEREAS, amending the Fortuna General Plan Land Use Map from Residential Low to Residential Medium is consistent with the General Plan, will not create any internal General Plan inconsistencies or otherwise cause the General Plan to be deficient, and supports the following General Plan goals and policies:
The General Plan designation is described in the General Plan as Residential Medium (RM)—“This designation provides for single-family detached and attached homes, secondary residential units, townhomes, condominiums, public and quasi-public uses, limited neighborhood-serving commercial uses, and similar and compatible uses.
LU-1.1 Historic Heritage. The City shall strive to preserve Fortuna’s traditional small town qualities and historic heritage, while expanding its residential, retail, and employment base.
LU-4.1 Residential Growth. The City shall support residential development at a manageable pace to achieve the City’s fair share of regional housing needs and provide for orderly extension of infrastructure and public services.
LU-4.2 Range of Residential Densities. The City shall promote new residential development in a range of residential densities that reflects the positive qualities of Fortuna.
LU-4.3 Multi-Family Housing. The City shall encourage multi-family housing to be located throughout the community, but especially within or near major transportation corridors, Downtown, major commercial areas, neighborhood commercial centers, and employment centers.
LU-11.5 Housing. The City shall actively pursue the creation of significant new housing opportunities within and immediately adjacent to Downtown.
LU-11.4 Nighttime Activities. The City shall strive to create more nighttime pedestrian activity in Downtown.
LU-11.7 Pedestrian Environment. The City shall create a distinctive and active pedestrian environment that supports Downtown as a unique destination.
Business Agenda Item 5b
LU-1.6 Infill Development. The City shall encourage infill development on vacant sites and reuse of underutilized parcels to minimize outward growth and reduce the cost of providing public services and facilities.
WHEREAS, the City has added 809 12th Street (APN 040-043-021) to the proposed general plan and zoning amendments, determining that it meets and fulfills the aforementioned health and safety findings and general plan policies and programs; and WHEREAS, the project is exempt from the California Environmental Quality Act because it meets the provisions of a Class 32 exemption (CEQA Sec. 15332) for in-fill development projects, and a Common Sense Exemption (CEQA 15061(b)(3)), pursuant to the criteria listed in these code sections; and
15332. In-Fill Development Projects: (a) The project is consistent with the applicable general plan designation and all applicable general plan policies as well as with applicable zoning designation and regulations. (b) The proposed development occurs within city limits on a project site of no more than five acres substantially surrounded by urban uses. (c) The project site has no value as habitat for endangered, rare or threatened species. (d) Approval of the project would not result in any significant effects relating to traffic, noise, air quality, or water quality. (e) The site can be adequately served by all required utilities and public services. 15061(b)(3). CEQA Common Sense Exemption: The activity is covered by the common sense exemption that CEQA applies only to projects, which have the potential for causing a significant effect on the environment. Where it can be seen with certainty that there is no possibility that the activity in question may have a significant effect on the environment, the activity is not subject to CEQA.
WHEREAS, the Planning Commission has considered the General Plan amendments at a duly noticed public hearing on April 12, 2022, and after considering the staff report, discussion, and public comment, voted (4-1) to recommend that the City Council amend the General Plan map; NOW THEREFORE, BE IT RESOLVED by the City Council of the City of Fortuna that the General Plan Land Use Map is exempt from the California Environmental Quality Act, and is hereby amended from Residential Low (RL) to Residential Medium (R-M) as shown in Exhibit 1.
