STAFF REPORT
City Council Consent Item
DATE: May 1, 2023
TO: Honorable Mayor and Councilmembers
FROM: Bob Natt, General Services Superintendent
THROUGH: Merritt Perry, City Manager
SUBJECT: Approve United States Department of Agriculture (USDA) Rural Development Loan and Grant Assistance Program Applications for Purchase of a Tiger Boom Mower
STAFF RECOMMENDATION:

Approve grant application for submittal to the USDA’s Rural Development Loan and Grant Assistance program for the purchase of a Tiger Boom Mower.

EXECUTIVE SUMMARY:

The City’s General Services Division currently operates a year-2000 John Deere Tiger Mower.

The mower is used for various mowing and brush cutting operations along city rights-of way including drainage ditches, the treatment plant ponds, water storage facilities, and large fields. The mower is key in helping maintain sight distances and pedestrian safety along roadways, especially at residential intersections. Additionally, the mower also provides fire prevention near critical infrastructure and neighborhoods. The mower is used heavily during the Spring and Fall months depending on weather forecast and precipitation.

The 2000 Tiger Mower is currently on the list of equipment that will be replaced due to emissions standards from California Air Resource Board (CARB). The current mower’s diesel engine is a tier 0, which means that it does not meet emissions standards for the state of California. As such, the tractor will soon have to be placed in a category where it can only be operated for a limited number of hours per year. In addition to the pending limited hours, the age of the mower is starting to show, requiring expanded maintenance effort and cost each year.

As the current mower will soon require replacement, staff propose to submit a grant to the USDA Rural Development Loan and Grant Assistance program to assist in funding a replacement mower.

An example of a new John Deer mower is included as Attachment B. The USDA program has been used in the past to provide grant funding for other public works equipment, including the mini excavator and a vacuum truck. The grant typically provides up to 55% funding for the ‘project’, which in this case could mean that the City could replace the existing mower and Consent Item 4c

potentially fund only 45% of the total cost. One of the requirements for applying to the program is that the City’s governing body consent to the application and local fund expenditure, and therefore it is staff’s recommendation that the council consent to the submittal of a grant for the Tiger Mower.

FISCAL IMPACT:

The total anticipated cost of the new Tiger Mower is $250,000, based on a quote received from Municipal Maintenance Equipment (MME, Attachment 1). The proposed funding plan, which would be included in the 2023-24 budget, is shown below:

1. Measure E: $37,500

2. Waste Water Reserves: $37,500

3. Water Reserves: $37,500

4. USDA Grant: $137,500
If the grant is awarded to the City by the USDA, the local cost responsibility is projected to be 45% of total cost. Staff recommends the City’s contributions come from Measure E (fund 101), Waste Water (fund 560), and Water Distribution (fund 510). Staff have already gained concurrence from the Measure E committee for this project, and the Measure E funding allocation request for this project will be presented to the Council during the budget development process.

RECOMMENDED ACTION:

Approve grant application for submittal to the USDA’s Rural Development Loan and Grant Assistance program for the purchase of a John Deer Tiger Mower. Consent agenda vote.

TO: Honorable Mayor and Council Members
FROM: Aaron Felmlee, Finance Director
THROUGH: Merritt Perry, City Manager
SUBJECT: Road Maintenance and Rehabilitation Account Project List; Resolution 2023-11 STAFF RECOMMENDATION:

Adopt a Resolution of the City Council of the City of Fortuna designating projects to be funded by the Road Maintenance and Rehabilitation Account (RMRA) during Fiscal Year 2023-24.

EXECUTIVE SUMMARY:

To be eligible for funding from the passage of SB1, the City must formally adopt a list of projects to be completed and forward that list to the California Transportation Commission (CTC) by July 1 st each year. Staff has prepared a list of projects in a format acceptable to the CTC and included it as an attachment.

In order to ensure that RMRA funds are spent appropriately, the City must also report after the fact on which projects were ultimately completed. It is important to note that there is no requirement that the annual list of anticipated projects match the list of projects completed. In the event that additional funding becomes available or if emergency projects arise, the two lists may differ.

Additionally, if during the Cities budget process different projects are identified by the Council as a higher priority than the ones adopted with this resolution the City can change the projects with no repercussions.

FINANCIAL IMPACT:

The projects included on the attached list are identified in the draft 2023-24 fiscal year budget through the Capital Improvement Program. If not funded through RMRA these projects will either not be completed or will have to be funded through other funds and other projects will not be completed.

RECOMMENDED COUNCIL ACTION:

Adopt Resolution 2023-11. Consent agenda vote.

STAFF REPORT
City Council Business Item
DATE: May 1, 2023
TO: Honorable Mayor and Council Members
FROM: Bob Natt, General Services Superintendent
THROUGH: Merritt Perry, City Manager
SUBJECT: Cleanup and Outreach Services Contract with New Directions STAFF RECOMMENDATION:

Staff is recommending the Council authorize the City Manager to negotiate and execute a contract with People of New Directions (New Directions) not to exceed $5,000.

EXECUTIVE SUMMARY:

The City of Fortuna contracted with River Life Foundation to conduct outreach and cleanup services for the past four years. The primary focus of the contract was to clean up illegal camps, and to provide information and assistance to people in need to find housing or recovery from substance abuse. Over the past year, there were billing issues with River Life Foundation, and no work was completed between November and March of this year. On March 13, 2023, Sean Swanson, the founder and manager of the work with the City passed away.

Currently there are few if any organizations that perform this type of work. The only other organization that staff were able to identify, People of New Directions, owned and operated by John Shelter. He currently works with non-profit and local jurisdictions between McKinleyville and Garberville. We received favorable references from some of the agencies with which they work.

On April 4th, the Chief of Police, General Services Superintendent and City Manager, met with John Shelter to discuss the services they provide, and to get a sense if the organization would be good at serving the needs of the City. Mr. Shelter shared his approach, which includes employing unhoused people to provide them a means to improve their situation, and also his approach to directing people to services. Mr. Shelter is very passionate about his mission to clean up the environment and help people that need assistance. Staff had a positive impression of the organization following the meeting, and felt that working with New Directions would meet the city’s needs. One difference from the past contract with River Life, is that the City would take on more responsibility to scout and identify areas needed for cleanup or outreach, and New Directions would respond specifically to those site. River Life was more self-directed and typically identified site independently.

Business Item 5a

The fiscal year 2022-2023 budget included an initial allocation of $10,000 and a subsequent budget adjustment of $5,000 to bring the total funding amount for cleanup and outreach services to $15,000. Approximately $8,500 has been spent to date, leaving approximately $6,500 this fiscal year. Staff expects to need up to $5,000 between now and the end of the fiscal year, to conduct necessary cleanup activities.

Staff is recommending that the council approve a contract with New Directions to provide cleanup and outreach services between now and the end of the fiscal year with a not-to-exceed amount of $5,000. A draft contract is attached to this staff report.

FISCAL IMPACT
Approval of a contract with New Dimensions for $5,000 is within the approved budget for this fiscal year, and will not require additions funding.

RECOMMENDED ACTION:

1. Receive staff report and answer Council questions

2. Open public comment

3. Close public comment

4. Authorize the City Manager to negotiate and execute a contract with New Directions not to exceed $5,000. Voice vote.

STAFF REPORT
City Council Business Item
DATE: May 1, 2023
TO: Honorable Mayor and Council Members
FROM: Merritt Perry, City Manager
SUBJECT: Declare Council’s Intent to Levy the Fortuna Business Improvement District’s Assessment for Fiscal Year 2023-24, Resolution 2023-12
STAFF RECOMMENDATION:

Staff recommends that the Council discuss and consider adopting Resolution 2023- 12 declaring the Council’s intention to levy the Fortuna Business Improvement District (FBID) assessment for the 2023-2024 fiscal year and setting a public hearing thereon for June 5, 2023.

EXECUTIVE SUMMARY
The Fortuna Business Improvement District was established in 1990 under the Parking and Business Improvement Area Law of 1989 (California Streets and Highways Code §§ 36500 et seq.) Under this law, the Council is required to adopt an annual resolution of intent for each fiscal year in which it levies the assessment.

The resolution of intent must be adopted after the Council reviews and approves the FBID Annual Report, which the Council will consider and approve during this meeting.

The resolution of intent is the first procedural step required to levy the annual assessment. The resolution of intent provides notice of a public hearing to occur on June 5, 2023, at which time business owners may submit written protests, as more particularly set forth in the resolution.

Pursuant to Section 36534 of the Streets and Highways Code, the annual resolution of intention must do all of the following:
(1) Declare the intention of the city council to change the boundaries of the parking and business improvement area, or in any benefit zone within the area, if the annual report proposes a change.
(No such change was proposed and, therefore, the resolution does not propose any boundary modification for this fiscal year.)
(2) Declare the intention of the city council to levy and collect assessments within the parking and business improvement area for the fiscal year stated in the resolution. (No modification to the existing assessment amount is proposed for this fiscal year.)
Business Item 5c

(3) Generally, describe the proposed improvements and activities authorized by the ordinance enacted pursuant to Section 36527 and any substantial changes proposed to be made to the improvements and activities.
(4) Refer to the parking and business improvement area by name and indicate the location of the area.
(5) Refer to the report on file with the clerk for a full and detailed description of the improvements and activities to be provided for that fiscal year, the boundaries of the area and any benefit zones within the area, and the proposed assessments to be levied upon the businesses within the area for that fiscal year. (6) Fix a time and place for a public hearing to be held by the city council on the levy of the proposed assessment for that fiscal year. The public hearing shall be held not less than 10 days after the adoption of the resolution of intention. (The public hearing is noticed for June 5, 2023, which is the date of the first regular meeting in June.)
(7) State that at the public hearing written and oral protests may be made.

Staff recommends that the Council adopt the Resolution to declare its intention to levy the assessment for the 2023-2024 fiscal year and setting a public hearing thereon.

FINANCIAL IMPACT:

FBID collects approximately $63,000 in assessments annually and the city is expected to contribute approximate $50,000 this year for an approximate total $113,000 annually. Of that amount, the core areas receive approximately the following amounts:

Core Area Assessment Distribution to Core
Area (62%)
Citywide Share
(38%)
Citywide $35,000 $0 $35,000
Downtown $13,000 $8,060 $4,940
Redwood Village $10,000 $6,200 $3,800
Strongs Creek $5,000 $3,100 $1,900
Total $63,000 $17,360 $45,640
If the Council adopts the resolution and a majority protest is not submitted by the public hearing, there would be no fiscal impact from the prior years, as the assessment would be maintained at existing rates.

If the Council does not adopt the resolution, the annual assessment would not be authorized, resulting in the loss of the assessment revenue in the estimated amount of $63,000.

Business Item 5c

RECOMMENDED COUNCIL ACTION:

1. Receive staff presentation and review Council questions with staff

2. Open Public Comment

3. Close Public Comment

4. Motion to adopt Resolution 2023-12, and read by title only. Roll Call vote.

STAFF REPORT
City Council Business Item
DATE: May 1, 2023
TO: Honorable Mayor and Council Members
FROM: Brendan Byrd, Public Works Director/City Engineer THROUGH: Merritt Perry, City Manager
SUBJECT: Authorization to Award a Construction Contract for the 12th Street Integrated Stormwater Project (CIP 9101) to RAO Construction and Establish a Maximum Contract Amount of $1,030,000
STAFF RECOMMENDATION:

Authorize the City Manager to award the 12th Street Integrated Stormwater Project (CIP 9969) and establish a maximum contract amount of $1,030,000.

EXECUTIVE SUMMARY:

Over the past several years staff have been working on the 12th Street Integrated Stormwater Project (Project). The project initially came into existence when the City was contacted by representatives from the state regarding the City’s interest in receiving a technical assistance grant to develop a full grant application for a stormwater project under California Water Bond Proposition 1 (Prop 1). As the City had a demonstrated need to extend the underground stormdrain system north along 12th Street and plan for future MS-4 compliance measures in the area, staff accepted the grant opportunity and proceeded to develop a project focused on 12th Street drainage improvements. Ultimately, the technical assistance grant was successful, and in 2021 the City was notified that full Prop 1 funding for engineering design construction was awarded to the project.

The final design and project bid package was completed in early 2023. The final project includes installing new storm drain pipe 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, and staff have been working collaboratively with FUHS staff to plan for its construction and maintenance. Within each raingarden would be a new overflow drainage inlet, allowing each features to fill to capacity and then overflow excess runoff into the underground system. Raingardens would be vegetated with an assortment of native grasses, shrubs, and trees. Raingardens located at intersections would also serve as ‘bulb-out’ crosswalks near the high school, shortening pedestrian crossing distances and enhancing the overall safety of the area.

The 12th Street bid package was released and publically advertised on February 16, 2023. The bid period ended on March 16th, at which time the City received four bids. The bid totals including base and alternate bid items are shown in the table below, and the total bid amount (including alternates) was the basis for awarding the project.

The apparent low bid was submitted by RAO construction with a total bid price of $1,114,545 (including the bid alternates). City staff have confirmed that the bid received from RAO Construction was responsive and that they and their sub-contractors have the necessary licenses and registrations. RAO has successfully completed a number of projects throughout the City in recent years, including the Walker Elementary Sate Routes to School project, and portions of the Jameson Creek and Rohnerville Road project, and staff are confident that they can successfully complete all portions of this project.

Although staff felt that the City received competitive bids, due to the excessive inflation over the past several years, all bids came in over the established construction budget. After the bid opening, staff reached out to the Prop 1 grant manager to inform them of the funding shortfall, and they indicated that additional funding was available for request. Any additional funding could only cover the cost to award the project as bid (no construction contingencies), therefore, staff immediately made a formal funding request to add budget to the project which would allow the City to award the project base bid, in addition to bid alternate 1. Bid alternate 2, which would have included additional stormdrain pipe on the west side of 12th Street, was determined during the bid period to be infeasible, and therefore was removed from consideration in the funding augmentation request. In early April, the City was informed that the additional funding request was approved (see Attachment 1), and staff recommends awarding the contract to RAO Construction.

If the project is awarded, staff anticipate being under contract by mid-May. Mobilization and construction is anticipated to begin in late May or early June, and staff are hopeful that a significant portion of the project can be completed during high school summer break. The draft Notice of Potential Award is included as Attachment A.

FINANCIAL IMPACT:

As noted above, the project is principally funded by a Prop 1 grant through the State Water Resources Control Board, awarded in 2021. The overall grant required a 10% local match, which staff budgeted using successive years of Measure E requests. The total available construction budget, including the supplemental funding and local match for the construction phase, is shown in the table below.

Business Item 5d

Fund Budget Amount
Fund 352 – Original Prop 1 Grant $854,700
Fund 101- Measure E Local Match $7,959
Fund 352 – Supplemental Prop 1 Funding $71,636
Total Construction Budget $934,295
As shown above, the project construction funding matches the bid totals for the Base Bid and Bid Alternate 1. Recognizing that most projects do require a construction contingency beyond the contract bid amount, staff propose to use $95,000 of city stormdrain funds for a construction contingency if needed. The stormdrain maintenance fund currently has a fund balance of approximately $265,000. Regarding the use of contingency funds, the state has indicated that if excess funds are still available during construction and contingency funds are required, the City could make an additional funding request to recover local funds, which if awarded would be reimbursed at 90%.

April 11, 2023
SUBJECT: APPROVAL OF ADDITIONAL FUNDS FOR CITY OF FORTUNA (RECIPIENT) 12th STREET INTEGRATED STORMWATER PROJECT
(PROJECT) GRANT AGREEMENT NO. D2112158

BACKGROUND
The Water Quality, Supply, and Infrastructure Improvement Act of 2014 (Prop 1) was approved by California voters in the general election on November 4, 2014. Among other funds, Prop 1 provided $200 million for matching grants to public agencies, nonprofit organizations, public utilities, state and federally recognized Indian tribes, and mutual water companies for multi-benefit storm water management projects (Water Code section 79747).

The State Water Board adopted Proposition 1 Stormwater Grant Program (SWGP) Guidelines (Guidelines) on December 15, 2015 for Round 1 and on October 16, 2019 for Round 2. The SWGP Round 2 Guidelines authorizes the Deputy Director of the Division of Financial Assistance (Division) to utilize available funds to augment the scope of work and budget of projects previously awarded, consistent with the Guidelines.

The Project is for the purpose of constructing a low impact development storm water runoff management system along 12th Street and Fortuna High School in the City of Fortuna to reduce flooding, augment groundwater, provide urban greening and reduce pollutant loads to Rohner Creek and the Eel River (303(d) listed water body).

In March 2023, the City bid out the Project and the lowest bid came in at $934,295. The estimated construction budget was $854,700. The total increase in construction cost is $79,595. The cost increase is due to escalated construction costs resulting from the persisting effects of the COVID-19 pandemic. Overall, the City requested a net increase of $71,636 in grant funds, with a match of $7,959.

Joe Karkoski - 2 -
The City serves a disadvantaged community and is eligible for 10% match to meet the Prop 1 match requirement. The City indicated that, even with the increased total project cost, they can still meet the 10% required match.

The Prop 1 SWGP has approximately $7.1 million in remaining funds that could be utilized to address cost increases in previously funded projects. If the requested cost increase for this project is approved, the remaining available amount for Prop 1 SWGP cost increases will be approximately $7.0 million.

The table below summarizes the current and proposed budgets:

Table 1:

Current Proposed Addition Proposed Total
Grant Award (Prop 1) $945,850 $71,636 $1,017,486
Match (10%) $105,150 $7,959 $113,110
Total $1,051,000 $79,595 $1,130,595
If approved, an amendment to the Grant Agreement (No. D2112158) will be prepared to reflect the changes to the budget.

STAFF RECOMMENDATION
Staff recommends approval of an additional $71,636 in Prop 1 grant funds for the Project.

APPROVAL
I, Joe Karkoski, Deputy Director of the State Water Board’s Division, approve staff’s recommendation described above.

STAFF REPORT
City Council Business Item

DATE: May 1, 2023
TO: Honorable Mayor and Council Members
FROM: Merritt Perry, City Manager
SUBJECT: Public Hearing: Second Reading and Adoption to Amend the Fortuna Municipal Code Regarding Public Hearing to Consider Amendment of Title 15—Buildings and Construction of the Fortuna Municipal Code by Adding Chapter 15.49—Model Water Efficient Landscape Ordinance. Ordinance 2023-759
STAFF RECOMMENDATION:

Adopt the proposed amendments of Title 15—Buildings and Construction of the Fortuna Municipal Code by Adding Chapter 15.49, which adopts the State Model Water Efficient Landscape Ordinance by reference, by adopting Ordinance 2023-759.

DISCUSSION:

The Model Water Efficient Landscape Ordinance (MWELO) is a California state regulation which has become part of the Building Code, and is designed to prevent water from being wasted on irrigated landscapes. The MWELO establishes a structure for planning, designing, installing, maintaining, and managing water efficient landscapes in new construction and rehabilitated landscaping. Overall, the MWELO seeks to ensure that landscapes promote water efficiency, soil health, storm water management, and erosion control. MWELO applies to any landscaping project greater than 500 square feet that requires a building permit, plan check or design review. It also applies to existing landscape rehabilitation projects with a total landscaped area greater than 2,500 square feet.

The MWELO was enacted in 1993 from the 1990 Water Conservation and Landscaping Act and was updated in 2015 at the height of the drought. Under Government Code section 65596.5, the Department is required to update the MWELO every three years, or else make a finding that an update is not useful or effective. Cities and counties are required to adopt the State MWELO, or a locally modified ordinance at least as effective in conserving water as the MWELO. For those local agencies that did not adopt the MWELO or a local equivalent by January 1, 2010, the state MWELO applied by default, until April 1, 2015, when standards were added to apply the rules to single family residential projects, reduce the exemption from 2,500 square feet to 500 feet of irrigated area, and required reporting on the implementation and enforcement activities of local jurisdictions. The Fortuna Planning and Building Divisions have been implementing and reporting on the MWELO since 2015 under the authority of the State code.

Business Item 5e

In addition, the California Department of Resources Recycling and Recovery are implementing SB 1383, with require adoption of local ordinances, and added regulations relating to soil amendments, mulch, and compost, beginning January 1, 2022.

Proposed Ordinance:

The attached ordinance amends section 15.49, Buildings and Construction, of the Fortuna Municipal Code by adopting the MWELO by reference, which will incorporate the State’s MWELO in its entirety, as required by State law, and which specify enforcement codes. The Ordinance ensures ongoing compliance with State standards and will automatically incorporate any future changes when changes are made by the State. The Ordinance would also comply with the SB 1383 regulations that require jurisdictions to adopt the MWELO ordinance.

MWELO Implementation:

The following sections provide further information on how projects will comply with MWELO requirements and required documentation to be provided during the building permit process. These required sections are directly from the State’s MWELO, including the forms. Staff will provide informational material on the website and at City Hall to assist residents, property owners and developers with complying with these regulations.

Residential projects with less than 500 square feet of landscaping are exempt from MWELO requirements. For anything larger than this, the landscaping project would be required to go through the MWELO review and compliance. For projects with landscaping between 500 and 2,500 square feet, the prescriptive standards apply. The prescriptive approach is intended for small scale, single-family and light commercial projects, and typically they are able to conform to requirements by limiting the use of irrigation, and using native or drought tolerant plants. For projects with landscaping 2,500 square feet and greater, the performance standards are applied, with more detailed requirements for planting, irrigation, and grading, as well as calculations for estimated total water use, irrigation efficiency, maximum water allowance, and design measures that reduce evapotranspiration rates to a specific standard.

When projects are complete, have been inspected by staff, and ready for a final certificate of occupancy from the building department, they would be issued an MWELO Certification of Completion.

The MWELO Ordinance does not apply to:
 Registered local, state or federal historical sites;
 Ecological restoration projects that do not require a permanent irrigation system;  Mined-land reclamation projects that do not require a permanent irrigation system; or  Existing plant collections, as part of botanical gardens and arboretums open to the public.

ENVIRONMENTAL ASSESSMENT:

The Ordinance is exempt from CEQA pursuant to Government Code section 15061(b)(3), where it can be seen with certainty that there is no possibility that the approval of a project under CEQA will have a significant effect on the environment. The MWELO Ordinance does not impose any physical changes to any development projects, and will monitor and potentially result in a decrease in the amount of water usage, and is therefore exempt from CEQA.

Business Item 5e

FISCAL IMPACT:

There is no immediate fiscal impact as a result of adopting the MWELO ordinance. Additional staff time to review landscape plans are expected as part of building permit application or land use entitlement review, but not to a level that would require additional staffing.

RECOMMENDED COUNCIL ACTION:

1. Receive staff presentation and review questions with staff

2. Open public comment

3. Close public comment

4. Motion to hold the second reading, read by title only, and adopt Ordinance 2023-759. Roll call vote.

Chapter 2.7. Model Water Efficient
Landscape Ordinance
§ 490. Purpose.
(a) The State Legislature has found:
(I) that the waters of the state are of limited supply and are subject to ever increasing demands;
(2) that the continuation of California's economic prosperity is dependent on the availability of adequate supplies of water for future uses; (3) that it is the policy of the State to promote the conservation and efficient use of water and to prevent the waste of this valuable resource; (4) that landscapes are essential to the quality of life in California by providing areas for active and passive recreation and as an enhancement to the environment by cleaning air and water, preventing erosion, offering fire protection, and replacing ecosystems lost to development; (5) that landscape design, installation, maintenance and management can and should be water efficient;
(6) that Section 2 of Article X of the California Constitution specifies that the right to use water is limited to the amount reasonably required for the beneficial use to be served and the right does not and shall not extend to waste or unreasonable method of use.
(b) Consistent with the legislative findings, the purpose of this model ordinance is to:
(I) promote the values and benefits of landscaping practices that integrate and go beyond the conservation and efficient use of water; (2) establish a structure for planning, designing, installing, maintaining and managing water efficient landscapes in new construction and rehabilitated projects by encouraging the use of a watershed approach that requires cross-sector collaboration of industry, government and property owners to achieve the many benefits possible; (3) establish provisions for water management practices and water waste prevention for existing landscapes;
( 4) use water efficiently without waste by sett
ing a Maximum Applied
Water Allowance as an upper limit for water use and reduce water use to the lowest practical amount;
(5) promote the benefits of consistent landscape ordinances with neighboring local and regional agencies;
(6) encourage local agencies and water purveyors to use economic incentives that promote the efficient use of water, such as implementing a tiered-rate structure; and
(7) encourage local agencies to designate the necessary authority that implements and enforces the provisions of the Model Water Efficient Landscape Ordinance or its local landscape ordinance.
(c) Landscapes that are planned, designed, installed, managed and maintained with the watershed based approach can improve California's environmental conditions and provide benefits and realize sustainability goals. Such landscapes will make the urban environment resilient in the face of climatic extremes. Consistent with the legislative findings and purpose of the Ordinance, conditions in the urban setting will be improved by:
(I) Creating the conditions to support life in the soil by reducing compaction, incorporating organic matter that increases water retention, and promoting productive plant growth that leads to more carbon storage, oxygen production, shade, habitat and esthetic benefits. (2) Minimizing energy use by reducing irrigation water requirements, reducing reliance on petroleum based fertilizers and pesticides, and planting climate appropriate shade trees in urban areas. (3) Conserving water by capturing and reusing rainwater and graywater wherever possible and selecting climate appropriate plants that need minimal supplemental water after establishment.
( 4) Protecting air and water quality by reducing power equipment use and landfill disposal trips, selecting recycled and locally sourced materiPage 37 Register 2015, No. 38; 9-18-2015 § 490.1 BARCLAYS CALIFORNIA CODE OF REGULATIONS Title 23 als, and using compost, mulch and efficient irrigation equipment to prevent erosion. (5) Protecting existing habitat and creating new habitat by choosing local native plants, climate adapted non-natives and avoiding invasive plants. Utilizing integrated pest management with least toxic methods as the first course of action.

(N) It is highly recommended that the project applicant or local agency inquire with the local water purveyor about peak water operating demands ( on the water supply system) or water restrictions that may impact the effectiveness of the irrigation system.
(0) In mulched planting areas, the use of low volume irrigation is required to maximize water infiltration into the root zone. (P) Sprinkler heads and other emission devices shall have matched precipitation rates, unless otherwise directed by the manufacturer's recommendations. (Q) Head to head coverage is recommended. However, sprinkler spacing shall be designed to achieve the highest possible distribution uniformity using the manufacturer's recommendations. (R) Swing j oints or other riser- protection components are required on all risers subject to damage that are adjacent to hardscapes or in high traffic areas of turfgrass.

Page38.S Register 2015, No. 38; 9-18-2015

(T) Areas less than ten ( I 0) feet in width in any direction shall be irrigated with subsurface irrigation or other means that produces no runoff or overspray.
(U) Overhead irrigation shall not be permitted within 24 inches of any non-permeable surface. Allowable irrigation within the setback from non-permeable surfaces may include drip, drip line, or other low flow non-spray technology. The setback area may be planted or unplanted.

The surfacing of the setback may be mulch, gravel, or other porous material. These restrictions may be modified if:

I. the landscape area is adjacent to permeable surfacing and no runoff occurs; or

2. the adjacent non- permeable surfaces are designed and constructed to drain entirely to landscaping; or

3. the irrigation designer specifies an alternative design or technology, as part of the Landscape Documentation Package and clearly demonstrates strict adherence to irrigation system design criteria in Section 492.7 (a)(l)(I). Prevention ofoverspray and runoff must be confirmed during the irrigation audit.
(V) Slopes greater than 25% shall not be irrigated with an irrigation system with a application rate exceeding 0.75 inches per hour. This restriction may be modified if the landscape designer specifies an alternative design or technology, as part of the Landscape Documentation Package, and clearly demonstrates no runoff or erosion will occur. Prevention of runoff and erosion must be confirmed during the irrigation audit. (2) Hydroz.one
(A) Each valve shall irrigate a hydrozone with similar site, slope, sun exposure, soil conditions, and plant materials with similar water use. (B) Sprinkler heads and other emission devices shall be selected based on what is appropriate for the plant type within that hydrozone.
