EXECUTIVE SUMMARY:
In December of 2022, the City entered into an agreement with Dr. Lawrence Richman for medical review of the legal case involving the City and Randall Auster.
DISCUSSION:
The City of Fountain Valley executed a retainer agreement with Dr. Richman in order to receive a clearer understanding of the medical issues in the recently settled litigation with Randall Auster. As that case has now been settled, a final invoice for Dr. Richman’s services was received for a total of $7,488.86. The initial contract with Dr. Richman was to not exceed $50,000, of which $48,000 had been encumbered to date. Therefore, staff is requesting a contract amendment to increase Dr. Richman’s agreement by $5,488.86, so that he may be paid in full for his services.
FISCAL REVIEW:
The remaining balance of $5,488.86 that is needed to pay for the services of Dr. Richman will be paid from account Number 114.00.00411.54003, which has sufficient funds to cover the amount requested.

COUNCIL ACTION REQUEST
To: Honorable Mayor and Agenda Date: August 15, 2023
Members of the City Council
SUBJECT: Amendment No. 2 to increase contract amount and extend the term for Consultant Services Agreement with Charles Abbott Associates for as-needed plan review services
Three-Year Strategic Goals
☐ Enhance the culture and environment of “A Nice Place to Live” ☐ Attract and retain revenue producing businesses
☐ Achieve fiscal stability in accordance with the 20-Year Financial Plan ☐ Attract and retain quality staff
☒ Not applicable
EXECUTIVE SUMMARY:
On July 20, 2021, the City Council approved a Consultant Services Agreement with Charles Abbott Associates, Inc. (“CAA”) to provide professional Building Division Services to the City.
This agreement was necessary to help the Building Division transition to in-house staff, backfill the two (2) open vacant positions during recruitment, structural plan review services and to continue use of the permit/code enforcement software system. The Agreement’s term was a “not to exceed” amount of $338,870 for the FY 2021-22. This agreement had a one-year term that expired on July 20, 2022. The City Manager authorized and signed Amendment No. 1 to extend the term of the agreement for one year until July 20, 2023 with no increase to total contract sum.
Staff has issued an RFP to identify the best firm to assist the City with its Building Department related needs. This includes structural plan check, the use of a land management software system and on-call staffing as needed. Staff is recommending a six-month extension to the agreement and an additional $50,000 in funding for on-going structural plan review services and to ensure uninterrupted customer service during this RFP process.
DISCUSSION:
On July 20, 2021, the City Council awarded a total not-to-exceed contract in the amount of $338, 870 to cover full-time staffing (permit technician, building inspection) until positions are filled, permit software, and on-call staffing for plan review services. The two (2) vacant staff

positions were filled by December 2021, the temporary aspects of that part of the contract was no longer necessary. The remaining funds from the “not-to-exceed” total was used to cover the annual cost for the permit/code enforcement software and structural plan review services.
As of July 2023, the balance of the contract is exhausted and contract term is expiring.
In July of 2023 the City of Fountain Valley Community Development Department circulated a Request of Proposal (RFP) to seek bids to provide plan review services and on-call staffing service for the Building Division on an as-needed basis. Proposals are due to the City on August 9, 2023 and staff expects the total evaluation and selection process to be completed by September of this year. As such, Staff is requesting the contract extension to continue with uninterrupted services during this time.
FISCAL REVIEW:
While the total contract amount would be increased by $50,000 to $388,870, the necessary funds for these additional professional services have been budgeted in the FY 2023-24 budget and are available in Account No. 100.30.30301.53003 for this amendment request.

COUNCIL ACTION REQUEST
To: Honorable Mayor and Agenda Date: August 15, 2023
Members of the City Council
SUBJECT: 1) Waive the bidding requirements pursuant to FVMC 2.36.070 Par 4 and authorize staff to issue a purchase order to National Auto Fleet Group for the purchase of two (2) new 2024 Chevrolet Trailblazer SUVs for $64,728.55 through the existing cooperative contract with Sourcewell; and
2) Authorize staff to dispose of the existing vehicles by means that best meet the City’s needs
Three-Year Strategic Goals
☒ Enhance the culture and environment of “A Nice Place to Live” ☐ Achieve fiscal stability by evaluating processes, and attract and retain revenue producing businesses/opportunities
☒ Attract and retain quality staff through best practices and trends ☐ Maintain, build, and modernize infrastructure to support growth and future needs of the City
☐ Not applicable
EXECUTIVE SUMMARY:
Recently, the Police Department reevaluated the fleet of vehicles assigned to the Investigations Unit in FY 2023-24. Two (2) vehicles due for replacement after 15 years of use are Unit 124, a 2008 Ford Fusion, and Unit 126, a 2008 Ford Escape. The FY 2023-24 Fleet Management Capital Program has allocated $80,000 to cover the cost of replacing these vehicles.
After evaluating the needs of the Police Department, Fleet Management staff and Police Management staff recommend purchasing two (2) 2024 Chevrolet Trailblazer SUVs to replace the Ford vehicles. The interior design of the Trailblazer provides better versatility and increased storage space to transport large quantities of property frequently seized at crime scenes.
Utilizing an existing cooperative contract through Sourcewell, the total cost to purchase two (2) new 2024 Chevrolet Trailblazer SUVs to replace Units 124 and 126 is $64,728.55. There is sufficient funding in the account for the purchase.
Purchase of Chevrolet Trailblazer SUVs
August 15, 2023
Staff is requesting that City Council 1) waive the bidding requirements pursuant to FVMC
2.36.070 Par 4 and authorize staff to issue a purchase order to National Auto Fleet Group for the purchase of two (2) new 2024 Chevrolet Trailblazer SUVs for $64,728.55 through the existing cooperative contract with Sourcewell; and 2) authorize staff to dispose of the existing vehicles by means that best meet the City’s needs.
DISCUSSION:
As part of the FY 2023-24 Annual Operating Budget and Ten-Year Capital Replacement Program adopted by City Council, $80,000 was budgeted for the replacement of two (2) vehicles assigned to the Investigations Unit of the Police Department. The vehicles scheduled for replacement are Unit 124, a 2008 Ford Fusion with a total of 57,482 miles, and Unit 126, a 2008 Ford Escape with a total of 58,048 miles.
Based on the condition of the Ford vehicles scheduled for replacement in FY 2023-24 and the needs of the Police Department, staff is recommending that the City use its allocation to replace these vehicles with Chevrolet Trailblazer SUVs. Both of these vehicles are 15 years old and the fleet would benefit from having SUVs, in addition to sedans, in order to support undercover and surveillance officer operations without being identified as law enforcement.
Furthermore, the interior design of the Trailblazer provides better versatility and increased storage space to transport large quantities of bulk property frequently seized at crime scenes and suppression operations. Finally, the Trailblazer provides an elevated seating position that is more efficient in maintaining visibility of vehicles in heavy traffic during surveillance operations.
Staff has identified an existing cooperative contract through Sourcewell, formerly the National Joint Powers Alliance (NJPA), that can be used for the purchase of these vehicles. Sourcewell combines the buying power of 50,000 government, education, and nonprofit organizations through nationally, competitively solicited cooperative contracts. Cooperative purchasing is “Procurement conducted by, or on behalf of, one or more Public Procurement Units” as defined by the American Bar Association Model Procurement Code for State and Local Governments.
Sourcewell’s rigorous process streamlines the procurement process by developing Invitation for Bids and Request for Proposals for national, competitive solicitations that meet or exceed local requirements. Sourcewell issued a Request for Proposal (RFP) in July 2021 for the procurement of automobiles, SUVs, vans, and light trucks with related equipment and accessories. The RFP was publicly advertised. Thirteen proposals were received in September 2021 and were evaluated based on eight criteria with pricing being the most heavily weighted.
Based on that process, National Auto Fleet Group was the highest ranked and awarded a cooperative contract (Contract #091521-NAF) by Sourcewell. The City can utilize the cooperative contract with National Auto Fleet Group through Sourcewell to purchase the vehicles at a competitive price in compliance with the City’s purchasing policy.
Section 2.36.070 Par 4 of the Fountain Valley Municipal Code authorizes the procurement of goods and services without formal bidding under the following circumstance: “When participating in cooperative contracts with another government agency.” Utilizing the existing cooperative contract through Sourcewell, the total cost to purchase two (2) new 2024 Chevrolet Trailblazer SUVs to replace Units 124 and 126 is $64,728.55.
Purchase of Chevrolet Trailblazer SUVs
August 15, 2023
Purchasing the new Chevrolet Trailblazer SUVs will support the City’s strategic goals of enhancing the culture and environment of “A Nice Place to Live” and attracting and retaining quality staff. Purchasing these vehicles as scheduled decreases vehicle downtime, increases fleet diversity and enhances community and officer safety. New SUVs and the modern equipment they are outfitted with provide detectives with the tools needed to continue effectively serving and protecting the community.
FISCAL REVIEW:
The FY 2023-24 Fleet Management Capital Program provides a total of $80,000 for the replacement of two (2) police vehicles in the Investigations Unit.

The total cost to purchase two (2) new 2024 Chevrolet Trailblazer SUVs is $64,728.55. After the purchase of the two (2) SUVs, there will be $15,271.45 remaining in the account which will be used for outfitting both vehicles.
There are sufficient funds to purchase the requested police vehicles.

ENVIRONMENTAL IMPACT REVIEW:
Not applicable.
ATTORNEY REVIEW:
This does not require the Attorneys for the City review or approval. This action will be issued on a City approved purchase order form that provides standard terms and conditions which have been approved by the Attorneys for the City.
ALTERNATIVES:
Alternative No. 1: 1) Waive the bidding requirements pursuant to FVMC 2.36.070 Par 4 and authorize staff to issue a purchase order to National Auto Fleet Group for the purchase of two (2) new 2024 Chevrolet Trailblazer SUVs for $64,728.55 through the existing cooperative contract with Sourcewell; and 2) authorize staff to dispose of the existing vehicles by means that best meet the City’s needs. This is the recommended action.
Purchase of Chevrolet Trailblazer SUVs
August 15, 2023
Alternative No. 2: Do not approve the proposal to purchase the Chevrolet Trailblazer SUVs through the cooperative contract and direct staff to obtain multiple quotes for the vehicles. This is not recommended as the cost under the cooperative contract is competitive and provides the best value to the City.
All Sourcewell contracts have been competitively solicited nationally and also save considerable staff time and effort over individual requests and specifications with various vendors to meet our procurement needs.
Alternative No. 3: Do not authorize the purchase of the Chevrolet Trailblazer SUVs at this time, and defer and direct staff to return at a future date with an update on the condition of the existing vehicles. This is not recommended, as these vehicles should be replaced now due to their age and condition.
RECOMMENDATION:
Staff is requesting City Council approval of Alternative No. 1 to 1) waive the bidding requirements pursuant to FVMC 2.36.070 Par 4 and authorize staff to issue a purchase order to National Auto Fleet Group for the purchase of two (2) new 2024 Chevrolet Trailblazer SUVs for $64,728.55 through the existing cooperative contract with Sourcewell; and 2) authorize staff to dispose of the existing vehicles by means that best meet the City’s needs.

CITY COUNCIL
COUNCIL ACTION REQUEST
To: Honorable Mayor and Agenda Date: August 15, 2023
Members of the City Council
SUBJECT: Approval of Amendment No. 2 to CON-19-54 with DMS Facility Services LLC for Janitorial Services at City Offices & Facilities to extend the contract term two years and increase the annual contract amount by 3.22% in the first year and by an additional 3.25% in the second year of the extension Three-Year Strategic Goals
☒ Enhance the culture and environment of “A Nice Place to Live” ☐ Achieve fiscal stability by evaluating processes, and attract and retain revenue producing businesses/opportunities
☒ Attract and retain quality staff through best practices and trends ☒ Maintain, build, and modernize infrastructure to support growth and future needs of the City
☐ Not applicable
EXECUTIVE SUMMARY:
The City’s current contract (CON-19-54) with DMS Facility Services LLC (DMS) for Janitorial Services at City Offices & Facilities will expire on September 30, 2023.
Per the terms of the contract, the City has the option to renew the contract, with contractor concurrence, for three (3) additional two-year periods on the same terms and conditions.
Amendment No. 1 to CON-19-54 extended the contract for the first two-year period on September 21, 2021.
Public Works staff has managed the work performed by DMS over the past four (4) years of the contract and has been satisfied with their performance. After considering the City’s historical Request for Proposal results, current economic conditions, and the service provided by DMS, Public Works staff thinks that it is in the best interest of the City to renew the existing contract. Therefore, staff wishes to extend the contract for a second two-year period through September 30, 2025.
Per the terms of the contract, DMS has agreed to extend the contract through September 30, 2025, and has requested an annual contract amount increase of 3.22% ($12,805.48) in the
Amendment No. 2 to CON-19-54
August 15, 2023
first year and an additional increase of 3.25% ($13,353.00) in the second year of the extension.
This averages out to a 4.9% increase, which is less than the 11.4% Consumer Price Index for All Urban Consumers (CPI-U) increase from June 2021 to June 2023.
Staff is requesting that the City Council approve Amendment No. to CON-19-54 with DMS Facility Services LLC for Janitorial Services at City Offices & Facilities to extend the contract term two years and increase the annual contract amount by 3.22% in the first year and by an additional 3.25% in the second year of the extension.
DISCUSSION:
The City of Fountain Valley utilizes contract janitorial services to maintain City offices and facilities in a clean, sanitary and aesthetically pleasing condition.
In 2019, Public Works staff developed and issued a comprehensive request for proposal (RFP) that detailed the scope of work for Janitorial Services at City Offices & Facilities. In addition to general janitorial services at 12 City facilities, twice-weekly trash porter service at the Sports Park and regularly scheduled carpet cleaning at five (5) buildings, the scope of work included increased vacuuming and carpet cleaning services to properly maintain and extend the life of the new carpet installed at the Senior Center, City Hall and the Corporation Yard, as well as annual deep cleaning services at Fire Station Nos. 1 and 2.
On August 12, 2019, the City received four (4) proposals in response to the competitive RFP.
After City staff carefully evaluated the proposals to determine which contractor would provide the best value to the City, City Council awarded a contract (CON-19-54) to DMS Facility Services LLC (DMS) in the annual amount of $378,466 on September 17, 2019. The term of the contract commenced on October 1, 2019, and continued through September 30, 2021.
Per the terms of the contract, the City has the option to renew the contract with contractor concurrence, for three (3) additional two-year periods on the same terms and conditions.
On September 21, 2021, City Council approved Amendment No. 1 to CON-19-54 which extended the contract term two (2) years through September 30, 2023, and increased the annual contract amount by 2.29% ($8,652.49) in the first year and by an additional 2.74% ($10,621.03) in the second year of the extension. Amendment No. 1 also adjusted the scope of work for the floor care in Halls A, B and C at the Senior Center and amended the hours during which the twice weekly trash can porter service at the Recreation Center and Sports Park occur.
The current term of the contract will expire on September 30, 2023.
After considering the City’s historical Request for Proposal results, current economic conditions, and the service provided by DMS, Public Works staff thinks that it is in the best interest of the City to renew the existing contract. Public Works staff has managed all of the work performed by DMS over the past four (4) years and has been satisfied with their performance. Therefore, staff wishes to extend the contract for a second two-year period through September 30, 2025.
Amendment No. 2 to CON-19-54
August 15, 2023
DMS has agreed to extend the contract through September 30, 2025, and has requested an annual contract amount increase of 3.22% ($12,805.48) in the first year and an additional increase of 3.25% ($13,353.00) in the second year of the extension. This averages out to a
4.9% increase which is less than the 11.4% Consumer Price Index for All Urban Consumers (CPI-U) increase from June 2021 to June 2023.
Per the terms of the contract, the compensation terms may be adjusted by a mutually agreeable amount based on and no greater than the Consumer Price Index for All Urban Consumers (CPI-U) for Los Angeles-Long Beach-Anaheim, CA changes over the previous contract period. The June CPI data is released mid-July, making it the most recent data available to the Contractor prior to submitting their CPI adjustment request in writing to the City sixty days before the end of the then-current contract period as required by the contract.
The scope of work will remain the same.
Continuing to provide janitorial services supports the City’s strategic goals of enhancing the culture and environment of “A Nice Place to Live”, and attracting and retaining quality staff by maintaining City offices and facilities in a clean, sanitary and aesthetically pleasing condition so they can be utilized and enjoyed by both the community and staff. Ongoing janitorial services also supports the City’s strategic goal of maintaining infrastructure to support growth and future needs by extending the usable life of building fixtures by properly maintaining them.
FISCAL REVIEW:
The annual cost of the amended contract is $410,545.00 in year one and $423,898.00 in year two of the extension. The cost of the contract will be expensed to Government Buildings Service Contract accounts within the General Fund based on the facility being serviced as detailed below.

The full financial impact of the amended contract is $834,443.00 for the two-year term.
FY 2023-24 Financial Impact
The current adopted budget for FY 2023-24 allocates $437,050.00 for janitorial services at City offices and facilities. This budget allocation was an estimate based upon the current janitorial contract and projected increases per the terms of the contract.
After factoring in the cost of janitorial services for July – September 2023 based on the current contract pricing and the cost of janitorial services for October 2023 – June 2024 based on DMS’s requested rate increase as reflected in Amendment No. 2, the total financial impact of CON-19-54 in FY 2023-24 will be $407,404.27. Therefore, there are sufficient funds in the FY 2023-24 budget to accommodate Amendment No. 2 to CON-19-54.

ATTORNEY REVIEW:
The Attorney for the City has reviewed and approved Amendment No. 2 to CON-19-54.
ALTERNATIVES:
Alternative No. 1: Approve Amendment No. 2 to CON-19-54 with DMS Facility Services LLC for Janitorial Services at City Offices & Facilities to extend the contract term two years and increase the annual contract amount by 3.22% in the first year and by an additional
3.25% in the second year of the extension. This is the
recommended action.
Alternative No. 2: Do not approve Amendment No. 2 to CON-19-54 with DMS Facility Services LLC, and direct staff to issue a Request for Proposal (RFP). This is not recommended as staff has been satisfied with the quality, cost-effectiveness and overall efficiency of the janitorial services provided by DMS. The cost increase requested by DMS is modest and staff believes that issuing an RFP would result in higher costs to the City given current economic conditions and the City’s historical RFP results.
RECOMMENDATION:
Staff is requesting City Council approval of Alternative No. 1 to approve Amendment No. 2 to CON-19-54 with DMS Facility Services LLC for Janitorial Services at City Offices & Facilities to extend the contract term two years and increase the annual contract amount by 3.22% in the first year and by an additional 3.25% in the second year of the extension.

SUBJECT: Approval to send a response to the Orange County Grand Jury regarding Historic Rain, Yet Drought Remains
Three-Year Strategic Goals
☐ Enhance the culture and environment of “A Nice Place to Live” ☐ Achieve fiscal stability by evaluating processes, and attract and retain revenue producing businesses/opportunities
☐ Attract and retain quality staff through best practices and trends ☐ Maintain, build, and modernize infrastructure to support growth and future needs of the City
☒ Not applicable
EXECUTIVE SUMMARY:
The Orange County Grand Jury released the 2022-2023 Orange County Grand Jury report, “Historic Rain, Yet Drought Remains”, on June 9, 2023. The report identifies the challenges the County faces with regard to ensuring an adequate water supply to meet the County’s future water needs and makes recommendations on how to address the County’s water supply challenges.
In accordance with California Penal Code Sections 933 and 933.05, the 2022-2023 Grand Jury requires (or, as noted, requests) responses from each agency affected by their findings and recommendations. A response from the City of Fountain Valley has been requested with regards to each of the Findings 1-12 and Recommendations 2-4 by September 5, 2023.
Staff is requesting approval to send a response to the Orange County Grand Jury.
DISCUSSION:
On June 9, 2023, the Orange County Grand Jury released the 2022-2023 Orange County Grand Jury report, “Historic Rain, Yet Drought Remains.” The purpose of the report was to investigate what actions Orange County is taking, or should be taking, to ensure the County’s
Response to Orange County Grand Jury Report – Historic Rain, Yet Drought Remains August 15, 2023
water supply in the face of longer droughts and extreme weather patterns caused by climate change and the increasing demand for water caused by the State’s mandated housing development.
Approximately half of all water used in Southern California is imported from the Colorado River and California Aqueduct, which are severely constrained sources of water. Although North and Central Orange County are served by a well-managed supply of water in underground storage, it cannot meet the needs of the entire County. South County is largely dependent on imported water.
In addition, the State of California has mandated local governments to provide more affordable housing and is promoting higher-density development. These mandates fail to recognize the limitations of the current water supply and do not provide additional sources of water to support the resulting increase in demand.
Climate change and mandated housing development increase the urgency of finding and implementing new methods of obtaining additional water resources. Throughout the County, there are numerous innovative water projects under consideration or development, but they may not be timely enough to avoid people running short of water and having to conserve more, ultimately leading to mandated rationing.
The Orange County Grand Jury’s investigation into this issue included identifying and interviewing key personnel; reviewing information from various water districts and interested parties; reviewing numerous documents pertaining to this report; and touring several water facilities. Based on the results of their investigation, the Grand Jury’s report presents 12 principal findings and four recommendations.
In accordance with California Penal Code Sections 933 and 933.05, the 2022-2023 Grand Jury requires (or, as noted, requests) responses from each agency affected by their findings and recommendations. A response from the City of Fountain Valley has been requested with regard to Findings 1-12 and Recommendations 2-4.

DISCUSSION:
According to the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention and the Kaiser Family Foundation, firearms are now the leading cause of death among children ages one through eighteen. The Center for Homeland Defense and Security, in conjunction with the Federal Emergency Management Agency, maintains a K-12 school shooting database as part of their Homeland Security program. Some of the important statistical findings are as follows:
There were 2,069 school shooting incidents between 1970 and June 2022 For the above time frame, 684 students and staff died in shootings at schools
Grand Jury Report- SCHOOL SHOOTINGS – How Prepared Are Orange County Public Schools? August 15, 2023
1,937 were injured
California was one of the states with the most incidents.
The 2022-2023 Grand Jury, based on its investigation, believes that Orange County public school districts are doing a good job in attempting to maintain a safe and secure campus for their students and school personnel/staff.
During most interviews with members of Orange County law enforcement, the Grand Jury learned that it is not a matter of “IF” an Orange County campus will be a victim of an active shooter but “WHEN” it will be a victim.
The reason for the 2022-2023 Grand Jury study is to use all the information it learned through its method of study and provide recommendations to all the Orange County public schools on how they can make their schools safer for all their students, teachers, and staff while maintaining a quality campus learning environment.
Recommendations for improvement were made in the following areas:
Building and equipment infrastructure
Training and training materials available for all personnel responsible for student safety and welfare
Implementation of tabletop exercises throughout all Orange County school districts The need for more School Resource Officers (SROs)
Increased coordination of responsibility between school staff and law enforcement Increased awareness of and address mental health issues Increased fiscal commitments to implement identified school safety measures The Grand Jury has required the City of Fountain Valley to respond to Findings F1, F8, and Recommendations R1, R3, R4, and R12 by September 18, 2023.

EXECUTIVE SUMMARY:
The Orange County Grand Jury issued a report on June 7, 2023, entitled “’Welcome to the Neighborhood’: Are cities responsibly managing the integration of group homes?”. The report details the benefits and the many negative impacts of group homes/sober living homes and the limitations enacted by the State preventing cities from regulating these businesses.
Recommendations by the Grand Jury include local cities working together to addressing citizen concerns by forming interdisciplinary panels, create a model ordinance for all interested Orange County cities, pooling of resources to defend against lawsuits, improve data collection and the formation of a task force to generate a plan to create awareness of the issue with State legislators/regulators.
DISCUSSION:
On June 7, 2023, the Orange County Grand Jury (OCGJ) issued an investigative report with findings and recommendations to address the impacts of group/sober living homes in the County. The OCGJ studied the State legislative framework, the actions of cities in addressing the issue with the general public, regulatory actions taken by cities to date and legal actions taken against cities for enacting these regulations.
The City of Fountain Valley has, at a minimum, 30 unlicensed operating in the City. These 30 businesses which are run out of the residential properties in the City, represent those that the City is aware of based on complaints to the Police Department and Code Enforcement. Based
Group Homes: Response to Grand Jury Report
August 15, 2023
on these complaints and as evidenced by public testimony at a recent City Council Study Session held on July 18, 2023 regarding group homes, there is substantial evidence that these facilities have had a profound negative impact on the community and residents. In addition, Staff believes that there are many more facilities operating that that the City is not yet aware of and it is possible given the City’s current inability to regulate these facilities based on State Law, that new facilities will continue to open.
To address the issue, the OCGJ has issued their report included in Attachment 1 to this staff report. As a result of the investigation, OCGJ issued produced 11 findings and five (5) recommendations, all of which necessitate a response from the City of Fountain Valley Attachment 2 is the City’s draft response to the OCGJ’s report. Upon authorization by the City Council, the responses in Attachment 2 will be submitted to the Presiding Judge of the Superior Court.

ORANGE COUNTY GRAND JURY 2022 I 2023 Page 3 of 42
SUMMARY
Group homes are an important component in the healthcare and/or recovery of many people. These homes provide, among other things, Substance Recovery, Hospice Care, Residential Care for the Elderly, and Sober Living. When group homes are operated for the well-being of their residents and with respect for their neighbors, they can be an asset to their host community. However, they can occasionally become disruptive and the motivation for nuisance calls to local code enforcement. In extreme cases, the “curbing” of residents can contribute to the homeless population.
Negative interactions with disruptive group homes often lead to neighborhood opposition and anger towards city officials. How cities respond to the anger of their constituents impacts their ability to successfully integrate group homes. Residents are more likely to respond positively when cities offer townhall style meetings with police, fire, code enforcement, legal, and subject matter expert involvement, especially where the subject is discussed objectively, and public input is encouraged and respected.
Issues and concerns neighborhood residents have with group homes stem primarily from an over-concentration of homes in residential areas. Multiple cities in Orange County have attempted to manage integration of group homes into neighborhoods by enacting ordinances that include setting a minimum distance between group homes to avoid the problems associated with over-concentration. Most cities with such ordinances have not enforced them due to the fear of incurring litigation costs.
The Grand Jury reviewed the challenges of successfully integrating group homes into neighborhoods, including pressures exerted on Orange County cities by residents, group home operators, and the State of California.
The State of California has recently joined the group home debate, has altered the conversation, and raised the stakes. The State wields a large club with its power of approval of the required Housing Element. The California Housing and Community Development Department (HCD) is withholding approval for cities that have ordinances attempting to place limits or impose oversight on group homes. Cities are then vulnerable to a loss of control over zoning and permitting, as well as loss of State and regional funding.
Some cities have decided to push back on the pressures put on them from HCD and the fight has been carried out on an individual city basis. The Orange County Grand Jury recommends that the County of Orange and cities join forces to create ordinances, pool resources for defense of lawsuits, and work together to generate awareness among legislators to improve regulations and management standards to ensure health and safety for group home residents.
WELCOME TO THE NEIGHBORHOOD
ORANGE COUNTY GRAND JURY 2022 I 2023 Page 4 of 42
BACKGROUND
Orange County has 42 miles of beautiful coastline, three harbors, and 25 urban and wilderness parks - including 230 miles of riding and hiking trails. Orange County also has the dubious honor of having more than its share of our State’s total number of group recovery and sober living residences. Frequently referred to as “The Rehab Riviera”, several cities in Orange County have been dealing with pockets of overconcentration of these types of group homes. This has posed challenges for the residents in whose neighborhoods they are located, as well as the occupants of the recovery and sober living homes.
Many of the homes in
question are privately
owned, unlicensed,
unsupervised, and a
challenge to monitor and
regulate. When a
neighborhood has multiple
group homes, it becomes
a more institutional
environment; this alters
the character of the
neighborhood and defeats
the purpose of the
“integration” of people who
are recovering.
The Orange County coast is a magnet for sober living homes To address these shortcomings, multiple cities, and the County, on behalf of unincorporated areas, have enacted ordinances that manage the permitting and tracking of group homes.
Several significant pieces of legislation have played a part in the expansion of group homes. These include California’s Lanterman Mental Retardation Act (1988), the Federal Fair Housing Amendments Act of 1988, the California Community Care Facilities Act, and California’s Substance Abuse and Crime Prevention Act of 2000 (Proposition 36). The resulting deinstitutionalization has had a positive effect on the lives of many people but has created a challenge for cities as they work towards the responsible integration of the group living arrangements necessary to accommodate the impacted population.

Since deinstitutionalization, the State of California has resisted appeals from local cities to pass permitting laws, distancing requirements, or any type of regulation at all. There is a misconception that these regulatory ordinances are intended to discriminate against people who are disabled due to alcohol and drug addiction, and the State of California has cited this misconception as the guiding principle for its dogged challenge of most attempts by cities to manage the responsible integration of group homes into residential neighborhoods. Rather, such city ordinances are intended to protect those people who suffer from alcohol and drug addiction, as well as the neighborhoods where group homes are located.
Licensed residential rehab programs are subject to the same local laws as single-family homes, and no more. State law imposes fewer restrictions on licensed rehab programs than other licensed group homes. The Community Care Facilities Act, from which alcohol and drug rehab facilities are exempt, imposes restrictions that protect the character of residential neighborhoods. Under this act, cities receive written notice of a proposed facility, and any city or county may request denial of the license based on overconcentration of residential care facilities. While alcohol and drug programs that provide 24-hour residential non-medical services to adults recovering from drug or alcohol abuse must obtain a State license, they cannot be regulated any differently from a single-family home if they serve six or fewer people.
California Health & Safety Code Sections 1520.5 and 1267.9 state it is a policy of the State to prevent overconcentration of residential facilities that impair the integrity of residential neighborhoods. Section 1520.5 states that the department shall deny an application for a new residential facility license if the department determines the facilities location is proximate to an existing residential facility therefore resulting in overconcentration. The statute recognized the need for a balanced policy to prevent overconcentration of residential care facilities which indicates an awareness and understanding of the impact of overconcentration on the integrity of residential neighborhoods. The statute defines overconcentration as less than 300 feet for some types of group homes and up to 1000 feet for others. At the time the statute was enacted it was specific only to certain types of group homes. However, the recent emphasis on providing more housing in California has eroded the intent of this act.
Federal and State fair housing laws protect people with disabilities from housing discrimination. Recovering alcoholics and drug addicts are disabled for purposes of antidiscrimination laws. When people in recovery live together in a “sober living” home, cities cannot discriminate based on such disabilities, therefore an ordinance cannot treat sober living homes differently than other similar uses in single-family residential zones.
Sober living homes are not required to be licensed and are not limited to six or fewer residents. Because no treatment is provided in these substance-free, mutually supportive living environments, no license is required. The limitation of most other group

homes to six residents is part of the State statute; however, confusion arises because the statute does not apply to sober living homes.
There is only so much a city can do to respond to the complaints of its residents when dealing with an overconcentration of group homes in a neighborhood. It is important for city residents to be educated on the barriers faced by cities, and to work with their city to overcome these barriers.
Current laws do not adequately address the need to manage the integration of group homes into neighborhoods. Courts should not be where the solutions are found.
REASON FOR STUDY
Many cities within Orange County have neighborhoods with a dense concentration of group recovery and sober living residences. In most circumstances, cities do not know where these group homes are located unless the homes generate a backlash from neighbors due to various types of disturbances. The Grand Jury examined how Orange County cities are managing the distancing of all types of group homes, and the impact group homes have on neighborhoods and group home residents when the homes are in close proximity to one another.
Group homes, most often Recovery and Sober Living homes, and the nuisances that are commonly associated with them, are not new to Orange County. Neighborhood complaints, concerns from individuals living in or related to residents of group homes, the litigious nature of the relationship between cities and group home operators, and abuse of the healthcare system have been in play in Orange County for well over a decade.
The Grand Jury began this study by looking at how cities are managing the influx and locations of group homes and identifying best practices where they are found. The working premise was that each city is responsible for the integration of group homes, which would serve to protect the residents of group homes while maintaining the existing neighborhood atmosphere.
Has there been success addressing the issues associated with group homes and what does that look like? Are cities going it alone or are there county-wide efforts? Has there been progress made in this area? The Grand Jury approached the topic of group home integration seeking answers to these questions with the expectation that there were some systems in place resulting in the successful integration of group homes. The investigation took a winding road which revealed that, despite countless attempts at change, many of the problems that surfaced over a decade ago are still present. The Grand Jury found that successfully implemented solutions have become even more impactful in light of the State of California’s heavy-handed entry into the debate.

METHOD OF STUDY
The Grand Jury has evaluated official documents, examined news articles, visited multiple recovery/sober living websites, and assessed secondary sources.
The Grand Jury reviewed
numerous documents, including
the 2022 State of California’s
Group Home Technical Advisory2
and the 1990 State of California
Health and Safety Code.3
To better understand the impact
of density, jurors attended
townhall and city council meetings
virtually, through recordings, and
visited neighborhoods in several
cities where there is a heavy
concentration of group homes.
The Grand Jury interviewed numerous subject matter experts, city managers, County and city officials, legislators, city attorneys, group home operators, and legal and real estate professionals. It also examined local, state, and national media reports and opinion pieces regarding group recovery and sober living residences. The Findings and Recommendations herein are based on this work.
INVESTIGATION AND ANALYSIS
Orange County has some of the heaviest concentrations of group homes and sober living residences in the nation.
4 The densities are more than the local population can
bear and residents believe the influx of the group home residents seriously impacts their neighborhoods. Similarly, group home and sober living industry experts cite negative impacts on the group home residents themselves.
Operators can open a group home where they desire, without having a license or Stateendorsed certification, and they can open as many group homes as they desire regardless of local need. Because regulation is slack, cities are challenged to track and regulate the density without any guidance or support from the State. Adding to these concerns is a recent State of California memorandum titled “Group Home Technical Advisory” that characterizes any attempts to regulate the homes as discriminatory.5 It seems that method of thinking has no positive effect on how the homes are run or on how the vulnerable residents in these homes are treated, and quite possibly has the opposite effect.

OC Group Home Density
Reportedly, Orange County has more than its share of group homes in California, and the country for that matter, specific to housing individuals in need of Recovery/Sober Living Homes.6 There are no existing requirements for sober living homes with six or fewer residents to identify or register themselves as such.
It is estimated that up to 36% of houses required to be licensed (those providing services) by the State of California as group homes for six or fewer residents are located in Orange County. In addition, there are hundreds of group homes not requiring licensing that exist in Orange County neighborhoods. This lack of identification makes it extremely difficult to estimate the total number of sober living homes in our communities.7
As documented in numerous city council and townhall meetings, residents and activists have raised concerns about over-saturation and common nuisances to local community governing bodies (see Common Nuisances section). In many cases, these are neighborhoods in which multiple group homes are in close proximity (for example three in one cul-de-sac) or individual homes are run with little to no on-site supervision.
Neighborhoods are losing their original character and familial aspect, with some becoming increasingly institutional and others experiencing more of a “frat house” feel.
Residents of these homes are moving in and out at an alarming, transitory rate.
Neighbors describe some of these group homes as taking no responsibility for the actions of their inhabitants. Rules and responsibilities are either not imposed or not enforced by the group home operators. The complaints are predominantly related to non-regulated group homes.
Over the last several years, multiple cities in Orange County have sought to find a solution to alleviate these concerns. Several have performed due diligence to ensure that any action taken will provide for neighborhoods to remain neighborhoods, and that both the disabled and the recovering addicts needing to live in these types of group homes are in fact living in a normalized residential environment that provides the best opportunity to be successful in their recovery.
WELCOME TO THE NEIGHBORHOOD
ORANGE COUNTY GRAND JURY 2022 I 2023 Page 9 of 42
This is not simply a “Not In My Backyard” (NIMBY) issue or reaction as evidenced by the large number of homes that receive few or no complaints. The need for well-run Recovery/Sober Living Homes is not in dispute. Concerns arise when these homes are poorly run and/or when multiple homes are in close proximity, contributing to the problem of over-concentration. These two circumstances cause changes in the local neighborhood, and it is questionable whether they are aiding the very residents that they are meant to be assisting and whether residents of these homes are integrating into a normalized environment.
To that end, various cities have introduced ordinances toward resolving the problem.
Some of these include distancing requirements between group homes ranging from 300 to 1000 feet. Some ordinances require group homes to register or self-identify as such.
California Health & Safety Code Section 1267.9 provides specific requirements for distancing of most types of group homes settings.8 These requirements are similar to the local city ordinances in that they provide certain spacing restrictions of between 300 and1000 feet. Sober Living Homes, however, are excluded from any distancing requirement by the State.
The State imposes licensing requirements on most types of group homes and provides for oversight by one or more State or County agency. Sober Living Homes with six or fewer residents are not required to be licensed by the State and have no regulatory
WELCOME TO THE NEIGHBORHOOD
ORANGE COUNTY GRAND JURY 2022 I 2023 Page 10 of 42
oversight. These two factors alone allow anyone to set up, open, and advertise this type of group home anywhere in California. Orange County seems to be the favored location, yet has no say in the siting or quantity of group homes in our residential neighborhoods.
Tracking Challenges
Just where are these sober living homes? All over. How do we know? We actually don’t.
There are few local ordinances requiring the registration, licensing, or declaration of any type of unlicensed sober living or recovery residence that has been established in a neighborhood. There are no widely adopted methods to track or monitor any aspect of such dwellings – their location, number of people residing in them, on-site management, or their ownership.
The Grand Jury’s research found that most sober living homes are not required by law to have any kind of State license. Some cities have enacted ordinances that require a permit or registration. When a sober living establishment is registered and a complaint is received, the complaint may be recorded and could be tracked, at least for the location of that specific home.
Except for the few cities with ordinances regulating sober living homes and the few homes that applied for registration or received ministerial permits, accurate tracking and monitoring remains challenging. Tracking is attainable if cities’ code and law enforcement establish and actively utilize a searchable database that includes
WELCOME TO THE NEIGHBORHOOD
ORANGE COUNTY GRAND JURY 2022 I 2023 Page 11 of 42
information about police and fire calls, nuisance complaints or code infractions, and identification of type of establishment. The use of this information can help identify the location and density of group homes.
Common Nuisances
Residents living in cities with neighborhoods having a significant number of recovery and sober living homes complain that the proliferation of these group homes in recent years has become unmanageable, and that overconcentration is impacting the quality of life for everyone.
For years, many citizens living in neighborhoods with an unrestrained growth of sober living homes have been voicing their concerns and frustrations over the lack of protection their communities are given. While many of these group homes adopt rules and regulations and attempt to be good neighbors, a citizen’s primary method for reporting concerns about a disruptive home is initiating a nuisance complaint to their local law enforcement.
The outcry is that unregulated sober living residences make for bad neighbors. Sober living homes are not always bad neighbors, but when they are concentrated in a small geographic area or neighborhood, the common nuisances can become more visible and disruptive. Ultimately, this raises concerns about the potential or actual diminished character of the neighborhood.

Lead Cities
Although the City of Costa Mesa has been front and center in the legal fights related to group homes, it was Newport Beach that first stepped into the arena in 2008. Three companies sued the City over an ordinance that was approved by the City Council in 2008 that regulated group homes for recovering addicts.9 Pacific Shores Properties, Newport Coast Recovery, and Yellowstone Women’s First Step House sued Newport Beach for a total of $5.24 million. Still in place today, this ordinance was the first of its kind in Orange County and it established quiet hours, parking and smoking areas, and van routes. It also required the City’s approval for new unlicensed homes for recovering addicts in certain neighborhoods. In 2015, the City reached the end of its seven-year legal battle over sober-living homes with a settlement agreement.10 11 According to the Orange County Register, which cites its own archives, Newport Beach spent at least four million dollars in legal costs on the cases. In 2008, there were 81 facilities and 614 total beds identified in Newport Beach. In 2021, there were a known 30 facilities with 210 total beds. Where did all those facilities and beds go?12 Perhaps to the City of Costa Mesa. In 2015, the City of Costa Mesa enacted their own ordinance (amended in 2017) after seeing a sharp increase in the number of sober living homes followed by a steep increase in the number of community complaints. On the heels of the ordinance came the legal challenges, and Costa Mesa prevailed in all challenges until January 2023 when two sober living homes, embroiled in litigation against the city, were handed a legal victory in federal court. The earlier dismissal was reversed and remanded by the Ninth Circuit Court of Appeals which ruled that asking operators of sober living facilities for proof of disability violates federal law barring discrimination against those with disabilities and bars discrimination in housing.
As the legal battle waged on, other local governments explored, advanced, or enacted regulation of sober living homes, including the County of Orange (2015), and Cities of Laguna Hills (2015), San Clemente (2016), Laguna Niguel (2016), San Juan Capistrano (2016), Anaheim (2020), and Huntington Beach (2020). Most of these entities, perhaps all, have chosen not to enforce their ordinances out of concern of potential litigation, and are waiting for Costa Mesa’s litigation to conclude.
Cities Are Standing Alone
Multiple cities in the County have executed ordinances to regulate unlicensed group homes. With the exception of the newly formed South Orange County Sober Living and
WELCOME TO THE NEIGHBORHOOD
ORANGE COUNTY GRAND JURY 2022 I 2023 Page 13 of 42
Recovery Task Force, cities have not collaborated on solutions to shared and common problems. This has been done on an individual basis, with little collaboration among cities. Prior to drafting an ordinance, some cities study the details and effectiveness of other cities’ actions, particularly the City of Costa Mesa’s ordinance, and use that as a template to draft their own.13
Once enacted, few of the ordinances are being enforced. This lack of enforcement is due to a small number of very specific impediments and concerns. These include:
• Fear of litigation costs due to lawsuits filed by group home operators against cities that have enforced ordinances. (The City of Costa Mesa has reportedly incurred over ten million dollars in legal fees in relation to group home litigation.) • Fear of the State of California withholding approval of the Housing Element for cities that have ordinances related to the management of group homes, resulting in the potential loss of state funds and local zoning control. • Lack of enforcement resources. Most cities do not have the staff resources to enforce these ordinances.
While individual cities take a wait-and-see approach to follow the progress of other cities that are standing up to the State, little progress is being made. The cities and County of Orange would benefit by working in partnership with one another to garner resources and create a coalition to promote change. While the newly constituted South Orange County Sober Living and Recovery Task Force is a good start, and the first tangible recognition of the need to work together, the Grand Jury recommends a countywide cooperative taskforce.
Orange County’s cities and unincorporated areas are demographically diverse.The active sharing of ideas, experiences, and information will be valuable to the overall process of developing a worthwhile model ordinance and plan for moving forward in the efforts to protect both the individual characteristics of Orange County neighborhoods, and all individuals living in those neighborhoods.
Fear of Litigation Costs
Cities are concerned about the high cost of litigation and the time required to defend ordinances regulating group homes. Private entities have challenged ordinances and in some cases won, and in other cases continued to pursue lawsuits in spite of opposition.
In one case, the California Department of Housing and Community Development (HCD) requested that the California Department of Justice file a “friend of the court” application to intervene on behalf the litigant in its case against the City. 14
WELCOME TO THE NEIGHBORHOOD
ORANGE COUNTY GRAND JURY 2022 I 2023 Page 14 of 42
Two examples of cities being involved in lengthy and costly lawsuits include Newport Beach and Costa Mesa. In 2007, Newport Beach had numerous sober living homes and was facing increasing pressure by residents to regulate them. In January 2008, Newport Beach passed an ordinance regulating sober living homes. The ordinance was carefully crafted to comply with State and federal law.15
By November 2008, several legal actions occurred. These included:
1. A lawsuit from a residents’ group (the “Concerned Citizens of Newport Beach” or CCNB) arguing that the City did not go far enough in enacting Ordinance 2008-
05. CCNB also sued multiple operators and asked for $250 million in damages from the City;
2. Two group home operators (Pacific Shores Recovery and Sober Living by the Sea) filed complaints with the US Department of Housing and Urban Development (HUD) alleging that the City’s ordinance and its practices have discriminated against disabled persons entitled to fair housing;
3. Multiple lawsuits were filed by Sober Living By the Sea (SLBTS) alleging that the City’s group residential uses ordinance was facially discriminatory against persons in recovery. The City reached an agreement with SLBTS;
4. The City filed lawsuits against Morningside Recovery and Pacific Shores Recovery, alleging that some of their operations opened illegally during a shortterm temporary moratorium against the establishment of new group residential uses. Pacific Shores Recovery has in turn alleged that the City’s group

residential uses ordinance was facially discriminatory against persons in recovery;
5. A cross-complaint by the City against Sober Living By The Sea and other operators that consolidated certain lawsuits in U.S. District Court.

Subsequently, in 2009, three companies sued the City of Newport Beach over the ordinance, claiming it violated anti-discrimination and fair housing laws because individuals recovering from an addiction are a protected group. A federal judge ruled in favor of the City in 2011. The companies appealed the case and it went to the 9th Circuit Court of Appeals, where the Court’s majority sided with the group homes, saying there was enough evidence to argue discrimination. The Court pointed to comments made during the 2008 hearing, which implied that the City Council was targeting recovery group homes.
The City of Newport Beach asked the U.S. Supreme Court to review the case in 2014, but the Court declined. The City settled with the group homes for $5.25 million in 2015.
The City’s estimated legal costs exceeded four million dollars, 16 for a total cost close to
ten million dollars.
The City of Costa Mesa waged a fierce and costly legal battle to regulate sober living homes for over five years. As noted in the section regarding the State’s actions and attitude, Costa Mesa fashioned an ordinance within the limits of State and federal laws
WELCOME TO THE NEIGHBORHOOD
ORANGE COUNTY GRAND JURY 2022 I 2023 Page 16 of 42
in 2014.17 The City ultimately spent over seven million dollars in litigation, and prevailed in State and federal courts; however, in January 2023, a federal appellate court reversed and remanded the district court’s 2020 ruling.
Costa Mesa Ordinance 15-11 sets limited standards for three items that address important societal issues, none of which are discriminatory in nature:
1. Spacing (650 feet apart)
2. Background screening of the house manager
3. Process for evicting residents
Spacing between group homes maintains the purpose of the facility and residential character of the neighborhood. Screening protects the residents of the facility. Through interviewees, the Grand Jury learned of group home managers with criminal backgrounds and who are themselves currently substance abusers. Standards for evictions are needed. Through interviews and newspaper articles, the Grand Jury learned of the practice of “curbing,” putting residents out on the curb when their source of payment runs out or when they are in violation of house rules. This practice is believed to contribute to homelessness in Orange County.
Costa Mesa’s ordinance serves an important purpose, but the ordinance is still in litigation after several years and at an estimated cost of more than ten million dollars.18 Other Cities in California and Orange County are similarly facing lawsuits and costs associated with group home and sober living ordinances. Cities could pool resources to mitigate litigation cost concerns. A coalition of cities to spread costs is highly recommended.
The Grand Jury learned that the lawsuits brought against cities are supported and enabled by an extremely profitable industry. According to John LaRosa at MarketResearch.com on February 5, 2020,
19 the group home market is 42 billion dollars
per year. Mr. LaRosa also noted that the industry needed to be cleaned up as many of the operators engaged in overbilling, patient brokering, and deceptive marketing.
The well-funded operators are supported by industry organizations and associations in their lawsuits. Industry organizations include large groups such as the California Consortium of Addiction Programs and Professionals, Behavioral Health Associates, and National Sober Living Associates. The websites of any of these organizations and several others can be viewed to see the type of support often provided. The organizations not only provide support for lawsuits, but also assist in lobbying State and federal legislators.
Many group home operators do not want any type of regulation, as evidenced by the Costa Mesa and Newport lawsuits, though the Grand Jury found some operators who welcome additional regulation to protect the industry from bad operators. In summary, the industry represents a formidable foe in lawsuits due to funding and industry associations.

State Actions
Zoning ordinances are the primary control local governments have over city land use.
The State of California has challenged the validity of group home ordinances, thereby inhibiting local governments in addressing group homes through zoning ordinances. If challenged, defense of the ordinances is costly and the alternative is to repeal them, a process that can be politically charged.
When Costa Mesa originally prevailed in the lawsuits filed against their 2014 sober living ordinance, the Cities of Encinitas, Huntington Beach, Anaheim and the County of Orange adopted similar ordinances for sober living facilities. In May 2021, the California Department of Housing and Community Development (HCD) sent a letter to the City of Encinitas stating its ordinance was in violation of statutory prohibitions on discrimination in land use. HCD said the city must take immediate steps to repeal the ordinance.
HCD’s letter to the City of Encinitas noted “The City appears to take significant comfort from certain court opinions, several unpublished, appearing to reject specific, largely different and distinguishable challenges to a different group home ordinance in Costa Mesa, which were brought by private parties rather than the State of California. Those decisions are neither on point nor binding here.” This statement is misleading to the general public because it downplays judicial rulings favoring Costa Mesa’s ordinance.
In May of 2021, HCD sent a “Letter of Technical Assistance” to the City of Anaheim in which they discuss Anaheim’s land use regulations. One of the items discussed was a phone call they had with city staff to discuss concerns with the proposed Zoning Code Amendment for group homes. HCD’s concern was that the ordinance “potentially conflict(s) with statutory prohibitions on discrimination in land use”.
Also in May of 2021, HCD sent a “Notice of Violation: City of Anaheim Notice of Violations of Housing Element Law and Anti-Discrimination in Land Use” regarding the denial of a conditional use permit for transitional housing. The California Department of Justice (DOJ) subsequently joined a civil lawsuit regarding the same action. HCD believes the City has failed to implement goals, policies, and program actions included in the housing element and failed to act consistent with Government Code requirements in applying standards to the approval of the Project.
On December 21, 2022, HCD issued a document titled Group Home Technical Advisory.
20 The executive summary includes the following:
“In recent years, some local governments have amended their zoning ordinances to add new regulations for group homes, particularly for recovery residencesgroup homes that provide housing for persons recovering from alcoholism or drug addiction. These amendments have raised concerns that local governments are not complying with their affirmative obligations under state planning and
WELCOME TO THE NEIGHBORHOOD
ORANGE COUNTY GRAND JURY 2022 I 2023 Page 18 of 42
zoning laws to promote more inclusive communities and affirmatively further fair housing (AFFH). These amendments have also generated disputes and confusion over whether local governments are violating fair housing laws by discriminating against persons with disabilities or other protected characteristics.” The document assumes the ordinances are not legally compliant and creates difficulties faced by cities trying to reasonably regulate group homes. The document is labeled a “technical advisory” but reads as a policy statement. There were apparently no public hearings regarding the document.
These actions by HCD and DOJ, as well as litigation, are challenges municipalities face in adopting ordinances regarding group homes when the courts have found these ordinances compliant with State and federal laws. This was made evident through interviews with representatives of cities. Interviewees also expressed concern that HCD interpreted the laws as being overly restrictive on zoning ordinances and failing to protect the inhabitants of group homes.
Housing Element
In the State of California, all cities are required to develop a General Plan. The General Plan serves as a blueprint for the future, prescribing policy goals and objectives to shape and guide the physical development of the city. The General Plan is a comprehensive policy document that informs future land use decisions, and it is comprised of multiple elements.
21 The Housing Element is one important part of a city or county’s General Plan. Every eight years, every city, town, and county must update their Housing Element and have it certified by the California Department of Housing and Community Development (HCD).
The most recent cycle of the new Housing Element has been heavily impacted by the State’s laser focus on housing availability and affordability.
On September 28, 2021, Governor Gavin Newsom signed a suite of bills to boost housing production across California which accompanies the Governor’s $22 billion housing affordability and homelessness package and ongoing work by the State to spur more housing production, tackle barriers to construction, and hold local governments accountable. Taken together, the actions reflect the State’s focus on creating more “The document is labeled a “technical
advisory” but reads as a
policy statement…”
WELCOME TO THE NEIGHBORHOOD
ORANGE COUNTY GRAND JURY 2022 I 2023 Page 19 of 42
affordable housing, faster and cheaper. “The acute affordability crisis we are experiencing in California was decades in the making, and now we’re taking the necessary steps to fix it,” said Governor Newsom.22
Although this is a response to a real need in California, the real-world consequences to the “build-build-build” solution are many. One of those can be seen in the State’s myopic push for housing as it has mistakenly equated group homes with additional housing options. But housing is not increased by allowing the unbridled proliferation of recovery and sober living homes. The industry advertises heavily outside of California and brings many of their residents from out-of-state. It is not uncommon for some of these residents to be “kicked to the curb” (referred to as curbing) for various reasons, and because they are not local to Orange County, they have nowhere to go and ultimately face homelessness.
HCD wields its power to review and approve State housing elements as a threat to deter city and county efforts to regulate group homes. Approval of the Housing Element has a big impact on a city’s ability to enforce its general plan and to control what gets built and where it is built. Without the HCD’s approval of the housing element, a door is opened to developers to bypass local zoning ordinances by utilizing a seldom used loophole known as Builders Remedy. Under that law, a developer may sidestep city approvals to construct a housing development if 20% of the project’s homes are affordable housing.23
State funding programs for transportation, infrastructure, and housing often require or consider a local jurisdiction’s compliance with Housing Element Law. These competitive funds can be used for fixing roads, adding bike lanes, improving transit, or providing much needed affordable housing to communities. In some cases, funding from state/federal housing programs can only be accessed if the jurisdiction has a compliant housing element.24 25
Educating the Public
By the time the public has organized to bring their concerns to city leadership through a letter writing campaign, a joint written complaint, or a petition, their level of frustration has likely been building for quite a while. How city leadership deals with the concerns and frustrations of their constituency is likely to determine whether it will be a collaborative or an adversarial process to find a resolution. Educating the public on the reasons that cities have seemingly been unwilling to address the integration of group homes into Orange County neighborhoods is key to the success of collaborative problem solving.
Cities have been squeezed from above by a combination of intense pressure from group home operators citing federal protections for the disabled, and the State of California’s efforts to eliminate group home ordinances by withholding approval on cities’ mandated Housing Element submission. They are also squeezed from below by

the people in neighborhoods which have been impacted by the over-concentration of group homes, and/or the level of nuisances generated by the group homes.
A lack of understanding of the challenges faced by cities leads to the perception that they are unwilling to step up and regulate the various group home types that are springing up in neighborhoods. Public education will reveal that there is not an unwillingness of cities, or the public, to find resolutions, but rather there are many hurdles promulgated by State and federal agencies that often prevent opportunities for reaching a solution. Cities should work together, and with State legislators and other stakeholders, to look for ways to affect change at the State level as well as provide more focused public education that addresses these issues.
In an effort to inform their citizens, some cities have used the multi-discipline, educational, townhall type response to the public outcry while others have not. The outcome can be quite different.
To illustrate, we need look no further than a tale of three cities: Anaheim, Newport Beach, and Laguna Hills. Anaheim’s group home issue heated up in October 2021 when Grandma’s House of Hope requested a Conditional Use Permit (CUP) to use a large house as a transitional living home for 19 intractably mentally ill women. 26 It was not Grandma’s House of Hope’s first group home in Anaheim; it was the latest in many previously successful CUP requests. Local residents coalesced against this CUP request in a vocal and organized manner. Whether it was the number of residents impacted, the descriptor of the group home residents as intractably mentally ill, or just one group home too many in this neighborhood, this organized effort to prevent the approval of the large group home attracted hundreds of local citizens and activists from both sides of the issue. It seemed that the majority of these people attended the planning commission meeting to voice their opinions during the public comment portion of the agenda and to let the City’s Planning Commission see the strength of their numbers.
WELCOME TO THE NEIGHBORHOOD
ORANGE COUNTY GRAND JURY 2022 I 2023 Page 21 of 42
The Planning Commission was seemingly prepared to accept the staff recommendation for approval. Public comment took over five hours, most of which was overwhelmingly against the approval of the group home. The applicant and the Planning Commission both expressed surprise at the public backlash. Ultimately, the approval recommendation was scrapped, and the Planning Commission voted to deny the CUP.
Grandma’s House filed an appeal and the application for the CUP was heard by the City Council. The public attended that meeting in larger numbers than at the Planning Commission meeting and they were every bit as angry and frustrated as they were at the earlier meeting. In spite of robust response on the issue at the meeting of the Planning Commission just two months earlier, the Anaheim City Council was unprepared for the charged nature of the adversarial clash. Most speakers were passionate but respectful, while some were rude and offensive. It was essentially an angrier repeat of the first meeting and led to the same conclusion, a denial of the CUP.27
The affected public walked away with no better understanding of the reasons why these group homes are hard to regulate due to the pressures put on cities by the State of California. The applicant ultimately filed suit against the city alleging violations of the Housing Element Law, Housing Accountability Act, and statutes governing antidiscrimination in local land use laws.
Nearly 200 people packed the Mission Viejo City Council chamber on March 29 for a Town Hall meeting regarding sober living homes. (Tomoya Shimura, Orange County Register, April 1, 2016) The City of Anaheim has not responded to the public concerns in an organized manner.
It has not provided an opportunity for the public to come together in a townhall-like meeting where the City could address the issues and the challenges they face, have subject matter experts on hand for short presentations, and allow for comments and questions.

In direct contrast to Anaheim’s response, we can look at the steps taken by the Cities of Newport Beach and Laguna Hills. Newport Beach was faced with a petition from its residents in 2007 after a rapid increase in the number of drug rehabilitation homes. The residents reported 103 treatment houses, nearly all on the Balboa Peninsula. There was a town hall hosted by (then) Assemblywoman Mimi Walters, R-Laguna Niguel, and (then) State Senator Tom Harman, R-Huntington Beach, and an estimated 200 people attended. It was an opportunity for dialogue as well as to learn about the constraints placed on cities by the State of California. Newport Beach responded to resident concerns again in late 2021 by organizing a community meeting with speakers from several city departments, a State Assemblywoman, the District Attorney, and a County Supervisor.29 30
Hundreds attend the Sober Living Homes Town Hall meeting at the at the Laguna Hills Community Center on Thursday (Christopher Yee, San Gabriel Valley Tribune, May 13, 2016) We can also look at the steps taken by the City of Laguna Hills. In 2016, the City responded to public outcry regarding group home issues by hosting a Town Hall on the subject. The Town Hall was hosted by (then) State Senator Pat Bates and several other State and local legislators. Also in attendance were attorneys with extensive knowledge of the issue as well as other subject matter experts. More than 600 people attended, and it was an opportunity for the residents in attendance to gain a better understanding of the challenges the City faces in regulating unlicensed group homes, as well as for the City to hear the concerns and frustrations of attendees. Proving that, when cities work to

ORANGE COUNTY GRAND JURY 2022 I 2023 Page 23 of 42
inform their constituents, and allow for a robust but respectful dialogue, they create an opportunity for collaborative problem solving.31
How Has This Issue Evolved?
The timing of this investigation aligned with the required submission of the Housing Element portion of each city’s General Plan. The State’s disapproval of a city’s Housing Element carries heavy consequences, and the State of California has used the withholding of this needed approval to coerce cities to abandon their group home ordinances.
The Grand Jury was previously unaware of the power behind group home lobbyists and the number of proposed legislative bills that never made it to a vote. The State’s policymaking role limits a city’s ability to responsibly manage the integration of group homes and, as a consequence, the trajectory and focus of the study changed and widened with this knowledge. The Grand Jury looked at broader factors influencing the group home industry, its influence, its effect on communities and often its seeming lack of real concern about its clients. The group home industry is immense, requires improved relations with cities, and needs more effective local governmental oversight.

FINDINGS
In accordance with California Penal Code Sections 933 and 933.05, the 2022-2023 Grand Jury requires (or, as noted, requests) responses from each agency affected by the findings presented in this section. The responses are to be submitted to the Presiding Judge of the Superior Court.
Based on its investigation titled “Welcome to the Neighborhood - Are cities responsibly managing the integration of group homes?” the 2022-2023 Orange County Grand Jury has arrived at eleven principal findings, as follows:
F1 Group homes too close to one another contribute to the problems associated with overconcentration.
F2 Common nuisances are more likely and disruptive when sober living homes are concentrated in a small geographic area of a neighborhood.
F3 Some cities have successfully addressed and informed community members about the challenges faced in regulating group homes.
F4 Community satisfaction was minimal when cities took the traditional public comment approach towards addressing community complaints.
F5 Cities are not utilizing police, fire, and code enforcement complaints as a means of locating and tracking Group Homes.
F6 Cities are inhibited from enacting and enforcing ordinances due to fears over the potential cost of litigation.
F7 Several cities have created an ordinance that requires a ministerial permit or registration to operate a group home, however many of these cities do not enforce their ordinances.
F8 City and County officials are deterred from regulating group homes by California Housing and Community Development’s housing element approval process.
F9 Cities have historically strategized and acted independently in addressing group home challenges and solutions.
F10 Well-operated group homes can integrate smoothly into neighborhoods.
F11 There is a lack of regulatory oversight for the health and safety of residents of unlicensed group homes.

General plans serve as a local government’s "blueprint" for how the city and/or county will grow and develop and include eight elements: land use, transportation, conservation, noise, open space, safety, environmental justice, and housing.

CITY OF FOUNTAIN VALLEY
CITY COUNCIL
COUNCIL ACTION REQUEST
To: Honorable Mayor and Agenda Date: August 15, 2023
Members of the City Council
SUBJECT: Amendment to Contract #CON-19-19: Cabco Yellow Inc., dba California Yellow Cab – Senior Transportation Provider
THREE-YEAR STRATEGIC GOAL
☒ Enhance the culture and environment of “A Nice Place to Live” ☐ Achieve fiscal stability by evaluating processes, and attract and retain revenue producing businesses/opportunities
☐ Attract and retain quality staff through best practices and trends ☐ Maintain, build, and modernize infrastructure to support growth and future needs of the City
☐ Not applicable
EXECUTIVE SUMMARY:
The City of Fountain Valley offers the “Hop On” Senior Transportation Program through the Orange County Transportation Authority (OCTA) Senior Mobility Program (SMP). The Community Services Department recently received a letter from Cabco Yellow Inc., dba California Yellow Cab, the City’s current transportation provider for this program, requesting an increase to their current fee from $12.00 to $17.50 per trip per passenger due to inflation. Since that time, staff conducted a survey of other local agencies and confirmed that this increase was consistent with other Orange County cities using Cabco for their senior transportation programs.
The current contract with California Yellow Cab states the fixed fee of $12.00 per trip per passenger, therefore a contract amendment would be necessary to increase the rate.
Staff recommends the requested increase to $17.50 per trip in order to provide timely and efficient transportation services to seniors in our community at no additional impact to the City’s approved FY 2023-24 budget.
DISCUSSION:
The City of Fountain Valley’s “Hop On” Senior Transportation Program provides residents 60 years of age and older with curb-to-curb transportation within the City seven (7) days a week, 8 a.m. to 7 p.m. The program is an essential service that provides seniors with
access to the goods, services, and social contacts that support their day-to-day existence and quality of life. From July 2022 – June 2023, a total of 3,668 one-way rides were provided equating to 8,336 total miles.
Currently, the City of Fountain Valley contracts with Cabco Yellow Inc., dba California Yellow Cab to provide transportation. Our current contract states “City agrees to pay consultant a fixed fee of $12.00 per trip per passenger…” This contract expires on June 30, 2024 so a contract amendment would be necessary to increase the fee to the requested $17.50 per trip per passenger.
In 2019, California Yellow Cab was the only transportation company to submit during the Request for Proposal process for senior transportation. At present, out of the 37 organizations that provide senior transportation, 19 organizations provide transportation through a taxi service, all of which who use California Yellow Cab. Should the City Council not approve the increase, CYC will continue services at the existing rates until the contract is sent out to bid in preparation for its expiration on June 30, 2024 and hope drivers remain servicing the program as usual without the increased rate. However, availability of rides in Fountain Valley may be lessened as drivers choose to be in higher populated areas with more ridership and increased rates.
Throughout the next year, in preparation for the contract expiration, staff will extensively research alternative transportation options to ensure the program continues to provide the seniors with the best service possible also being fiscally responsible.
FINANCIAL ANALYSIS
Funding for the “HOP ON!” Senior Transportation Program is derived from Orange County Transportation Authority (OCTA) Measure M2 funding and a required City of Fountain Valley General Fund match of 20 percent. In 2006, OCTA M2 was approved by local voters and is Orange County’s half-cent sales tax for transportation improvements, including Project U, which provides funding for seniors/disabled persons. One percent of net sales tax revenue is allocated to participating cities based upon the percentage of the senior population of the city as determined by the most current decennial Census information. Measure M2 covers 80% of the cost, and the City’s required match of 20% is covered by a current agreement with MemorialCare Orange Coast Medical Center (MCOCMC) and by co-pay fares paid by the rider.
From July 2022 through June 2023, at the current rate of $12.00 per trip, the total trip cost was $44,016. At the increased rate of $17.50 per trip, for the same amount of trips and time period, the total would be $64,190, an annual program increase of $20,174.
The approved budget for the 2023-24 transportation program is $103,500, but the cost to the City would remain unchanged, as the program costs are covered by Measure M2 and MemorialCare funds. Due to decreased ridership in the “Hop On” Senior Transportation Program since the COVID-19 pandemic, ample funds from these sources are available to accommodate for this increase. As of June 30, 2022, the current balance of SMP funds was $190,155.

CITY COUNCIL
COUNCIL ACTION REQUEST
To: Honorable Mayor and Agenda Date: August 15, 2023
Members of the City Council
SUBJECT: Approve an Agreement with Athens Administrators for Third Party Claims Administration Services Regarding Excess and Tail Workers Compensation Claims Three-Year Strategic Goals
☐ Enhance the culture and environment of “A Nice Place to Live” ☐ Achieve fiscal stability by evaluating processes, and attract and retain revenue producing businesses/opportunities
☐ Attract and retain quality staff through best practices and trends ☐ Maintain, build, and modernize infrastructure to support growth and future needs of the City
☒ Not applicable
EXECUTIVE SUMMARY:
On April 4, 2023, the City Council voted to approve the switch from PRISM to CalJPIA as the city’s insurance carrier, for all programs. However, the Workers Compensation program was with a separate carrier, Brown & Brown Insurance. To keep all insurance programs under one group, the city agreed to enter into the Worker’s Compensation program provided by CalJPIA at the June 20, 2023 meeting.
The move to the CalJPIA Workers Comp Program also included the Third Party Administrator Services with Athens Administrators.
DISCUSSION:
As the City approved the move in Workers Compensation insurance Carrier from Brown and Brown to CalJPIA, the Third party Administrator for Workers Compensation Claims was also going to change.
The switch in Workers Compensation Carrier programs created a necessary change from Adminsure as the city’s current Third party Administrator, to Athens. In order to keep Workers Compensation claims moving, the Human Resources Director requested an extension with Adminsure for 6 months for an amount not to exceed $49,999, which the City Manager approved.
The 6 month extension granted for Adminsure was established to give the Human Resources Department time to establish services with Athens Administrators for all new and old claims. While any new claims received as of July 1, 2023 were automatically assumed by Athens Administrators, any claims prior to July 1, 2023 were still being processed by Adminsure. The Risk Administrator and Human Resources Director have been working with Athens to get all former claims transitioned over from Adminsure, to Athens, so all Workers Compensation claims are being handled by one Third Party Administrator.
The agreement presented for council’s approval would officially begin on September 1st, with Athens assuming all former Workers Compensation claims that Adminsure have been handling. Athens comes highly regarded in their services and the Human Resources Director vetted their services with other agencies that use them. Their quality of service on claims handling is highly regarded and will greatly improve our claims handling process for the Human Resources Department.
FISCAL REVIEW:
The contract for excess and tail claims services with Athens will be for 2 years and 10 months, commencing on September 1, 2023. The table below shows the annual cost for tail claims services.
Pricing Option 1 - FLAT ANNUAL FEE Flat Annual Fee
Program Year 1 9/1/2023 6/30/2024 10 Months $77,690
Program Year 2 7/1/2024 6/30/2025 12 Months $53,200
Program Year 3 7/1/2025 6/30/2026 12 Months $40,296
The current fiscal year 2023-24 adopted budget includes $92,000 for third-party claims administrator services. The City has paid Adminsure $14,230 for the first 2 months of the fiscal year, leaving $77,770 remaining in the budget for the final 10 months of services. Therefore, sufficient funding exists in the current adopted budget for program year 1 with Athens. Program years 2 and 3 will be accounted for in those upcoming annual budgets. The pricing above reflects Athens taking over all historical claims of which 33 are indemnity cases, 22 are future medical and 5 are medical only claims. The total cost of the tail claims services with Athens would be $138,186 after subtracting the already budgeted and not spent money that was approved for Adminsure.
ATTORNEY REVIEW:
Attorney for the City has reviewed this item.
ALTERNATIVES:
Alternative No. 1: Approve the tail claims services with Athens for the 2 years and 10 months agreement
Alternative No. 2: Direct staff to take an alternate action and do not approve the agreement.
RECOMMENDATION:
Staff recommends that the City Council approve Alternative No. 1, Approve the tail claims services with Athens for the 2 years and 10 months agreement.
