CHAPTER 2.38 PUBLIC PROJECTS—UNIFORM COST ACCOUNTING AND ALTERNATE

PROCEDURES ADOPTED

2.38.010 Public projects—Uniform Cost Accounting adopted.

State law governs public works bidding for construction projects. Public Contract Code Section 20160 et seq., generally provide for the procedure for competitive bids. Pursuant to Public Contract Code Section 22000 et seq., the city has adopted the uniform cost accounting procedure and the alternate procedure for bidding public works projects. This chapter governs all public works contracts of the city, whether or not a given contract meets the definition of a “public project” under Public Contract Code Section 22002; for public works contracts that are not “public projects” as so defined, the thresholds and procedures in this chapter shall apply by analogy unless a specific state law provision requires otherwise. Pursuant to those procedures, the following may apply:
(a) Public projects of $75,000 (seventy-five thousand dollars) or less may be performed by the employees of the city by force account, negotiated contract or purchase order. (b) Public projects of $220,000 (two hundred twenty thousand dollars) or less may be let by contract by informal procedures as set forth in state law. (c) Public projects of more than $220,000 (two hundred twenty thousand dollars) shall be let by contract using formal bidding procedures as provided in Section 2.38.040 of this code.
(d) The city council does hereby delegate the authority to award and execute contracts to the city manager for public projects of $50,000 (fifty thousand dollars) or less.

2.38.020 Informal procedures.

Page 125 of 241 ends

(c) If there is no list of qualified contractors maintained by the city for the particular category of work to be performed, the notice shall be sent only to the construction trade journals specified by the Commission.
(d) If the product or service can be obtained only from a certain contractor, the notice inviting bids can be sent exclusively to that contractor. (e) All mailing of notices to contractors and construction trade journals pursuant to subsection (b) shall be completed not less than ten calendar days before bids are due. (f) The notice inviting informal bids shall describe the project in general terms and how to obtain more detailed information about the project, and state the time and place for the submission of bids.
(g) If all bids received are in excess of $220,000 (two hundred twenty thousand dollars), the city council may, by adoption of a resolution by a four-fifths vote, award the contract at $235,000 (two hundred thirty-five thousand dollars) or less to the lowest responsible bidder, if it determines the cost estimate of the public agency was reasonable.

2.38.030 Emergencies; emergency exception to competitive bidding. (a) Council Authority. In cases of emergency when repair or replacements are necessary, the city council may, by a four-fifths vote, proceed at once to replace or repair any public facility without adopting plans, specifications, or working details or giving notice for bids to let contracts. The work shall be done by day labor under the direction of the city council, by contractor, or by a combination of the two.
(b) Delegated Authority. In an emergency, the procedures of Public Contract Code Sections 20168 and 22050, or any successor statute, shall apply. The City Manager is authorized to order emergency work pursuant to Public Contract Code Section 22050 and if such action is ordered, the City Manager shall report to the council at successive regular meetings stating the justification for continuing with the emergency work. In the absence or inability of the City Manager to so act, the Director of Public Works shall be authorized to exercise these powers.

2.38.040 Formal bidding procedures.

Public works contracts requiring formal bidding under this chapter require formal, competitive sealed bidding pursuant to state law, including the following procedures:
(a) Public Notice. Public notice of the request for bids shall be published in accordance with Public Contract Code Section 22037.
(b) Bid Opening. Sealed bids shall be opened by the city clerk or designee publicly in the presence of at least one witness at the time and place designated in the request for bids. (c) Bid Acceptance and Bid Evaluation. Bids shall be unconditionally accepted without alteration or correction. The city retains the right to waive minor irregularities in the bid, but will reject nonresponsive bids in accordance with law.
(d) Tie Bids. If two or more bids received are for the same total amount or unit price, quality and service being equal, if the public interest will not be served by re-advertising for bids, the city council may accept the one it chooses or accept the lowest bid made by negotiation with the tie bidders.
(e) Rejection of Bids. In its sole discretion the city may reject any and all bids presented and re-advertise for bids, consistent with Section 2.38.050. (f) Award. The contract shall be awarded to the lowest responsible and responsive bidder. (g) Storage of Sealed Bids. All opened bid materials, after the award, are to be retained for the time prescribed by the records management program.

Page 126 of 241 ends

2.38.050 Rejection of bids.

The procedure for rejecting bids shall be as described in Public Contract Code Section 22038.

2.38.060 Adoption of plans, specifications and working details.

The city council shall adopt plans, specifications and working details for all projects exceeding the amounts provided in Section 2.38.010(c) and any persons shall have the right to inspect the same. The approval of the contract by the city council shall constitute approval of the plans, specifications and working details incorporated in that contract.

2.38.070 Bidder's security.

All public works bids under this chapter shall be accompanied by security when deemed necessary by the city manager or the city manager's designated representative, as prescribed in the notice inviting bids. Bidders shall be entitled to return of bid security; provided, that a successful bidder shall forfeit his or her bid security upon refusal or failure to execute the contract within ten days after the notice of award of contract has been mailed, unless the city is responsible for the delay. The city council may, on refusal or failure to execute the contract, award it to the next lowest responsible, responsive bidder. If the city council awards the contract to the next lowest bidder, the amount of the lowest bidder's security shall be applied by the city to the difference between the low bid and the second lowest bid, and the surplus, if any, shall be returned to the lowest bidder.

Section 3. If any section, subsection, sentence, clause or phrase of this ordinance is for any reason held to be invalid or unconstitutional by a decision of any court of competent jurisdiction, such decision shall not affect the validity of the remaining portions of the ordinance. The City Council declares that it would have passed this ordinance and each and every section, subsection, sentence, clause or phrase not declared invalid or unconstitutional without regard to whether any portion of the ordinance would be subsequently declared invalid or unconstitutional.

Section 4. The City Clerk shall certify to the adoption of this Ordinance and cause it to be published as required by law.

WHEREAS, the City Council intends that the authority previously granted under Resolution No. 9900 continue without interruption, and accordingly intends that the repeal of Resolution No. 9900 take effect concurrently with the operative date of Ordinance No. ____, so that no gap in the City Manager's information technology contracting authority results;
NOW, THEREFORE, the City Council of the City of Fountain Valley does hereby resolve as follows:

Section 1. Resolution No. 9900, adopted September 19, 2023, is hereby repealed in its entirety.

Section 2. The authority previously granted to the City Manager under Resolution No. 9900 is continued without interruption under Fountain Valley Municipal Code Section

2.36.115, as adopted by Ordinance No. ____.

Section 3. Notwithstanding that resolutions of the City Council generally take effect immediately upon adoption, this resolution, and the repeal of Resolution No. 9900 effected hereby, shall take effect on October 15, 2026, the same date on which Ordinance No. ____ becomes operative, so that Resolution No. 9900 remains in effect until Municipal Code Section 2.36.115 becomes operative and no gap in authority occurs. If for any reason Ordinance No. ____ does not become operative, this resolution shall not take effect and Resolution No. 9900 shall remain in full force and effect.

Section 4. That the City Clerk shall certify the passage and adoption of this Resolution and enter it into the book of original Resolutions.

Notwithstanding any other provision of this chapter, procurements funded in whole or in part by federal financial assistance shall comply with the federal procurement standards set forth in 2 CFR Part 200, Subpart D (§§ 200.317–200.327), as amended, in addition to the requirements of this chapter.

(d) Consideration for small and minority businesses.

CITY COUNCIL

COUNCIL ACTION REQUEST
To: Honorable Mayor and Agenda Date: September 15, 2026 Members of the City Council
SUBJECT: Adopt a Resolution amending Resolution No. 9996, effecting certain changes to the City’s Master Salary Schedule in conformance with Title 2 of the California Code of Regulations Section 570.5 and the California Public Employees’ Retirement System
Three-Year Strategic Goals
☐ Cultivate a welcoming culture and safe environment that makes our community “A Nice Place to Live.”
☐ Ensure long-term 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, plan for, and modernize infrastructure to support the growth and future needs of the City.
☐ Not applicable.

EXECUTIVE SUMMARY
Adopt a Resolution to effect certain changes to the City’s Master Salary Schedule by adding one (1) represented employee classification of the City of Fountain Valley, covered by the City’s Classification and Compensation Plan, to conform with Title 2 of the California Code of Regulations Section 570.5, listing all employee pay rates on a publicly available master salary schedule approved and adopted by City Council and superseding all provisions contained in Resolution No. 9996, and all subsequent salary schedule resolutions, which pertain to the Classification and Compensation of city employees. The requested addition was presented at the City Council meeting on July 14, 2026, as part of the City Council's adopted amendment to the 2025-2027 Biennial Budget.

DISCUSSION
On July 14, 2026, the City Council considered and approved the addition of the Permit Technician/Building Inspector position to support the operational and organizational needs of the Community Development Department. The classification is intended to provide the City with a position capable of performing a combination of permit processing, customer service, building inspection, and related technical duties associated with the City's Building Division.

Following July 14, 2026, Council action, staff completed the necessary administrative steps to implement the approved classification. As part of that process, the City’s Master Salary Schedule must be updated to formally reflect the newly approved Permit Technician/Building Inspector (G91) classification and salary range in the Fountain Valley General Employees Association.

Adoption of this Resolution (Exhibit 1) will comply with CalPERS’ interpretation of the requirements of Title 2 of the California Code of Regulations, section 570.5, by affirming the City’s Master Salary Schedule already on the City’s website and publicly available, and representing all previously approved actions on individual employee classifications set forth as part of the salary schedule.

FISCAL REVIEW

COUNCIL ACTION REQUEST
To: Honorable Mayor and Agenda Date: September 15, 2026 Members of the City Council
SUBJECT: Public Hearing – FY 2025-26 Community Development Block Grant Consolidated Annual Performance and Evaluation Report
Three-Year Strategic Goals
☒ Cultivate a welcoming culture and safe environment that makes our community “A Nice Place to Live.”
☐ Ensure long-term 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, plan for, and modernize infrastructure to support the growth and future needs of the City.

EXECUTIVE SUMMARY
Title I of the National Affordable Housing Act of 1990, as amended, requires the City of Fountain Valley (City) to prepare and submit a Consolidated Annual Performance and Evaluation Report (CAPER) to the U.S. Department of Housing and Urban Development (HUD), summarizing the annual accomplishments of the City’s Community Development Block Grant (CDBG) program, and specifying how the CDBG funding was utilized. The City has completed its CAPER in the format prescribed by HUD, which describes the programs implemented by the City in an effort to address the housing and community development goals and objectives outlined in its Consolidated Plan.

Staff is recommending that the City Council conduct a public hearing to obtain public input regarding the CAPER (Attachment 1), and, at its conclusion, approve the CAPER and authorize staff to submit the report to HUD for review and approval.

DISCUSSION
One of the requirements for receiving CDBG funding from HUD is that recipients prepare a Consolidated Plan to govern the use of all federal funds. The Consolidated Plan is a five-year planning document that coordinates all elements of community development, including housing, neighborhood improvement, economic development, and human services, into a single plan, and serves to provide a unified vision of a community and its goals regarding the

use of CDBG funding to assist low-income members of the community. The City of Fountain Valley’s FY 2025-29 Consolidated Plan covers the period of July 1, 2025, to June 30, 2030.

At the end of each fiscal year, HUD grantees are required to submit a report, in the format prescribed by HUD, which reviews and reports the programs implemented by the City that address the community development needs and priorities outlined in its Consolidated Plan.

This year-end annual report is known as the CAPER.

The FY 2025-29 Consolidated Plan outlines the following priorities:

1. Improve and preserve existing residential neighborhoods by implementing home, infrastructure, and public facility improvements, and code enforcement programs.

2. Address the needs of persons with special needs through the provision of financial assistance to public service agencies, and the removal of architectural barriers to the physically challenged.

3. Provide affordable housing opportunities for renter households through an on-going partnership with the Orange County Housing Authority.

4. Administer available federal, state, and locally funded housing and community development grant programs, including providing fair housing services, and ensuring compliance with applicable state and federal regulations.

Highlights of the City’s accomplishments in implementing its FY 2025-26 housing and community development grant programs include:

1. 43 grants, rebates, loans, and lead based paint hazard testing grants were completed under the City’s Home Improvement Program, for a total cost of $445,987 in CDBG funds. This includes the cost of program administration.

2. 123 properties located within the City’s low-income CDBG target areas had code violations identified and abated at a cost of $30,975 in CDBG funds.

3. Five non-profit organizations funded by the Public Service Agency (PSA) Grant Program provided services to 322 persons/households. The five programs included childcare scholarships, youth diversion services, congregate and home delivered meals for elderly, and emergency and transitional shelter and services for domestic violence victims. $45,177 in CDBG funds were used for these services.

4. The Fair Housing Council of Orange County assisted 131 unduplicated households and resolved 402 issues between renters and landlords. Issues included security deposits, discrimination, substandard conditions, harassment, unlawful detainers, etc. All issues were resolved in-house at a cost of $5,000.00 in CDBG funds.

5. Orange County Housing Authority (OCHA) administers the federally funded Housing Choice Vouchers (Section 8) for the City. 437 low-income renter households in Fountain Valley currently have HUD vouchers. This program is provided at no cost to the City.

4 EXECUTIVE SUMMARY
The City of Fountain Valley (City) is an entitlement jurisdiction, receiving an annual allocation of Community Development Block Grant (CDBG) funds from the U.S. Department of Housing and Urban Development (HUD). As a recipient of CDBG funds, the City is required to prepare a five-year strategic plan that identifies housing and community needs, prioritizes these needs, identifies resources to address the needs, and establishes annual goals and objectives to meet the identified needs. This five-year plan is known as the Consolidated Plan. The purpose of the Consolidated Plan is to outline a strategy for the city to follow in using CDBG funding to achieve the goals of the CDBG program, “to develop viable urban communities by providing decent housing and a suitable living environment and expanding economic opportunities principally for low- and moderate-income persons.” The Consolidated Plan is created as a work plan that is divided into five separate planning and reporting cycles. Since factors such as decreases in funding are not usually known from year to year, the five-year goals must remain fluid and are adjusted on an annual basis.

At the end of each fiscal year, the city is required to provide the public and HUD with an assessment of its accomplishments toward meeting the priority goals outlined in the Consolidated Plan. This annual assessment is known as the Consolidated Annual Performance and Evaluation Report (CAPER). This document provides a review and evaluation of the City of Fountain Valley’s progress toward meeting the FY 2025-26 annual goals as outlined in the FY 2025-26 Action Plan, as well as the larger five-year goals of the FY 2025-29 Consolidated Plan. This report summarizes the City’s accomplishments for the period of July 1, 2025, to June 30, 2026.

The CAPER contains the following basic elements:
• Information necessary to assess the City of Fountain Valley’s ability to carry out the CDBG Program in compliance with all applicable rules and regulations; • Required information for HUD’s Annual Report to the U.S. Congress; • Details on programs, projects, and activities that the City of Fountain Valley has undertaken to address priority needs and local objectives during Fiscal Year 2025- 26;
• Planned activities utilizing other funds including Fountain Valley Housing Authority funds; and
• Provides the City of Fountain Valley an opportunity to describe and disseminate information to its citizens regarding the success of the program in meeting the goals stated in the FY 2025-29 Consolidated Plan.

5 CR-05 - Goals and Outcomes
Progress the jurisdiction has made in carrying out its strategic plan and its action plan.

91.520(a)
This CAPER has been prepared to provide information to the residents of the City of Fountain Valley, interested persons, and HUD regarding the City’s use of federal grant funds to meet the priority needs identified in the City’s FY 2025-29 Consolidated Plan. The CAPER focuses on annual goals and accomplishments for the period of July 1, 2025, through June 30, 2026.

• Home Improvement Program – 38 grants, rebates, low-interest, and deferred payment loans were completed for income eligible , owner -occupied properties • Lead Paint Hazard Testing Grant – 5 completed for participants of the Home Improvement Program
• Fair Housing Services - 131 individuals assisted
• Code Enforcement – 128 violations abated in CDBG eligible areas • Emergency Shelter and Services for Battered Women –59 individuals/families assisted • Senior Services – 142 individuals assisted

8 Assess how the jurisdiction’s use of funds, particularly CDBG, addresses the priorities and specific objectives identified in the plan, giving special attention to the highest priority activities identified.

The following priorities are outlined in the five–year Consolidated Plan:
• Improve and preserve existing residential neighborhoods by implementing home, infrastructure, and public facility improvements, and code enforcement programs. • Address the needs of persons with special needs through the provision of financial assistance to PSAs, and the removal of architectural barriers to the physically challenged. • Provide affordable housing opportunities for renter households through an on-going partnership with the Orange County Housing Authority.
• Administer available federal, state and locally funded housing and community development grant programs, including providing fair housing services and ensuring compliance with applicable state and federal regulations.

Funding priorities for FY 2025-26 were established based on the extent of the need, the availability of other funding sources to address those needs, and whether a similar program was offered by other entities. The City has determined the most effective use of funds is to fund PSAs at the maximum 15% cap and to utilize the majority of remaining CDBG funds toward offering rehabilitation grants, rebates, and loans to income-qualified residents to provide decent and sanitary housing and to provide code enforcement in CDBG eligible areas to ensure a suitable living environment.

The City of Fountain Valley provides grants to a diverse group of PSAs who offer a variety of programs to assist low- and moderate-income households with services that they may not otherwise be able to afford. Services provided through the grant program included childcare scholarships, youth diversion services, congregate and home delivered meals for elderly, and emergency and transitional shelter and educational services for domestic violence victims.

During the reporting period, 308 low- and moderate-income residents received services from the PSA’s participating in the City’s PSA grant program. The projected target was for a total of 305 persons to be assisted over the fiscal year. All participating PSAs met or came close to their stated goals for the year. The total expenditure for all PSA services was $45,177.

The City of Fountain Valley administered several programs to assist low- and moderate-income households with affordable housing concerns. The total expenditures for Housing Programs were $444,237 and included the following programs:
• Neighborhood Revitalization Program/Home Improvement Program - This program completed 38 single-family home and mobile home grants, loans, and rebates. The expenditures for this activity, including program administration, was $444,237. • Lead Based Paint Hazard Grant Program - This program grants funds necessary for the testing and remediation of lead-based paint hazards in the home. In 2025-26, five homes were tested for lead-based paint hazards. The expenditure for the activity was $1,750.00. • Code Enforcement Program - This program helps preserve the housing stock by addressing municipal code violations in the designated low-mod census tracts that show signs of

Page 167 of 241 ends

9 deterioration. In 2025-26, Code Enforcement abated 129 municipal code violation cases. $30,975 was expended on this activity.

CDBG regulations allow grantees to spend no more than 20% of the total annual grant for Administration of the CDBG entitlement grant. This amount includes the cost of providing fair housing services to city residents. For the fiscal year, a total of $41,882 was expended on administrative costs with an additional $5,000 spent to provide fair housing services to city residents through an agreement with Fair Housing Council of Orange County (FHCOC). The total cost of Administration of the FY 2025-26 entitlement allocation was $46,882, 15.5% of the annual allocation.

FHCOC provides fair housing services to city residents that includes community education regarding issues such as fair lending practices, tenants’ rights, and housing discrimination. The FHCOC also investigates cases of home mortgage discrimination and other fair lending practices. Since the pandemic, FHCOC hosts virtual workshops regarding fair housing, for both landlords and tenants.

They continue to be available via phone and email to assist residents as well as in-office appointments.

During FY 2025-26, FHCOC assisted 131 households, 87% higher than the 70 clients projected to serve during the year. The FHCOC annual update is Appendix 1 to this report.

Table 1 – Identify the geographic distribution and location of investments Narrative
As reflected in Table 3, the majority of CDBG funds were distributed city-wide. Both the PSA program and the Home Improvement Program services are not limited to the CDBG eligible areas. This is because any resident that meets the income requirement can benefit from most programs. Eligibility is established by household income and household size. City staff reviews income and household data when determining eligibility for the Home Improvement Program and PSA’s collect the same data from their clients. Most the City’s PSA grant recipients serve groups that are presumed low-income by HUD definitions, so clients do not need to provide proof of income. Program administration is also used on a citywide basis.

Code enforcement numbers in CDBG eligible areas remain consistent. Staff is finding that many cases are becoming more complex, particularly building code, illegal land use, and

Page 170 of 241 ends

12 building permit violations, and are taking more of staff time to bring properties into compliance. A map of CDBG-eligible areas is provided in Appendix 3 at the end of the report.

Leveraging
Explain how federal funds leveraged additional resources (private, state, and local funds), including a description of how matching requirements were satisfied, as well as how any publicly owned land or property located within the jurisdiction that were used to address the needs identified in the plan.

The CDBG Program is leveraged by various funding sources. The highest ratio of leveraging CDBG funds is the PSA Program. Many of the non-profit organizations receive funds from a variety of federal, state, local and private sources. The CDBG funds they receive from the city are generally a very small portion of their overall funding. PSA organizations provide the greatest return for the amount of CDBG funds spent due to their ability to leverage the CDBG grant they receive from the City with their overall funding. This leveraging allows low-income Fountain Valley residents access to services, at no cost, that they may not have an opportunity to receive otherwise. The services include programs for battered women and children, youth criminal diversion programs, youth services, and senior services.

To help offset PSA program costs for grant recipients, the city provides use of the Senior Center for the senior meal program and provides office space at the police department for the youth criminal diversion program. This is an example of how the city used publicly owned facilities to assist in addressing the needs identified in the plan.

Examples of other leveraged funds come from the Home Improvement Program. Eligible lowincome homeowners can use their personal funds to pay for a rehabilitation project and will receive 50% of their costs back, per program policy, in the form of a rebate. Code Enforcement CDBG funds are also leveraged by general funds.

The city does not participate in any programs that have matching requirements.

Discuss the difference between goals and outcomes and problems encountered in meeting these goals.

The City works in partnership with Orange County Housing Authority who administers the voucher assistance program for the city. This ensures that rental assistance is made available to the most disadvantaged households in the city and helps provide rental assistance to special needs populations to ensure they have affordable housing. As Table 5 shows, the number of vouchers issued was three vouchers less, or less than 1%, of the one–year goal.

As noted on Table 5, the city produced 225% more than the projected annual goal for the number of Rehab of Existing Units projects expected to be completed. The new full-time Housing Technician who was hired in June 2025 had an extremely successful year Prior to his hiring; the program was administered by a part-time consultant. With his substantial knowledge and organizational skills, he was able to get the substantial backlog of projects successfully completed in a timely manner.

Discuss how these outcomes will impact future annual action plans.

Page 172 of 241 ends

14 The FY 2025-26 CDBG program outcomes show that the activities funded were successful in assisting low-income households in the city. In future plans, the city will continue to focus on providing grants to a wide variety of PSAs to assist the underserved, and to offer grants, rebates, and loans to lowincome homeowners for rehabilitation of their homes, as the city has had measured success with these programs.

Code enforcement in eligible areas will also be utilized, as it continues to be an effective tool to address issues of deteriorated or deteriorating properties, and ensuring that all properties obtain building permits when required, which supports the safety of all residents. Code enforcement also helps in the marketing of the Home Improvement Program as code enforcement officers provide information of the availability of the program to residents who are oftentimes unaware of the funding opportunities for home improvement that the City provides.

While CDBG funds can be used to assist with renovations and creation of new public facilities and capital projects in targeted neighborhoods, the city has determined that other community needs like housing and human services are a higher priority and can be more successfully addressed with the limited amount of CDBG funds that are available.

Include the number of extremely low-income, low-income, and moderate-income persons served by each activity where information on income by family size is required to determine the eligibility of the activity.

Narrative Information
City of Fountain Valley funds programs and projects through the PSA Grant Program, Home Improvement Program, and by contracting with Fair Housing Council of Orange County to provide services to households with income levels that are 80% or less of the median County income.

Of the 38 projects funded through the Home Improvement Program, 26% had incomes at between 31-50% of the Orange County median income and the remaining 63% were between 51% and 80% of the Orange County median income. 42% of the households were disabled, 58% were elderly, and 37% were female head of households. All households assisted in the Home Improvement Program were owner-occupied households as required by program policy. The households assisted by the City’s Neighborhood Revitalization Program/Home Improvement Program and Lead Based Paint Hazard Grant Program are reflected in Table 6.

Page 173 of 241 ends

15 437 vouchers for rental assistance were provided by OCHA in Fountain Valley. This includes regular Housing Choice Vouchers, Veterans Affairs Supportive Housing Vouchers, Non-Elderly Disabled Vouchers, Family Unification Vouchers, Family Self-Sufficient Vouchers and Port-in Vouchers from other Housing Authorities. Of this amount, 322 vouchers were for elderly households and 52 were for disabled households. All OCHA voucher recipients qualify, at a minimum, as very low-income households.

Interval House Domestic Violence Shelter assisted 59 domestic households, which is 107% of the number of clients they projected to assist. Per HUD regulations, domestic violence victims in need of emergency shelter are counted in public service agency accomplishments and do not fit the definition of homeless that are accounted for in Table 4.

Through the Fountain Valley Housing Authority, the City also monitors 54 affordable for-purchase owner occupied units, 156 senior affordable apartments, and 64 all-age affordable rental apartments to ensure they continue to comply with affordability restrictions.

91.520(c)
Evaluate the jurisdiction’s progress in meeting its specific objectives for reducing and ending homelessness through:

Reaching out to homeless persons (especially unsheltered persons) and assessing their individual needs
In the 2026 Point in Time (PIT) count, Fountain Valley had 44 unsheltered, unhoused individuals and 12 unhoused, sheltered persons. The City continues to contract with City Net to address the need for specialized homeless outreach. City Net provides homeless housing navigation services to persons experiencing homelessness in Fountain Valley and assists them in connecting to shelter and housing.

City Net is one of the largest and most effective providers of street outreach and engagement services in southern California and has successfully provided services to many neighboring communities. City Net offers several programs to assist persons experiencing homelessness such as:
• Street Outreach
• Engagement Services
• Housing Navigation
• Case Management
• Transportation
• Emergency Health/Mental Health
• Services for Special Populations
• Food and Emergency Services
• Housing First
• Trauma-Informed Care
The partnership with City Net began in 2022, and from the start through May 2026, they have successfully transitioned 199 clients from the streets to housing. 158 of the exits have been to shelters, 25 have been to institutions (recuperative care, hospitals, detox center) and 16 permanent exits , either housed, or reunited with family or friends. City Net services are funded outside of the CDBG program.

The Fountain Valley Police Department continues to fund a Community Resources Team (CRT) that consists of one Sergeant and two Police Officers who are dedicated to homeless intervention and education and work alongside City Net. City Net services and the CRT are funded outside of the CDBG program.

The city also supports the County of Orange in its Continuum of Care Program (CoC) that administers the homelessness strategy with a countywide approach. The CoC has restructured its governance so that functions are performed by either the Continuum of Care Board or the Commission to End Homelessness. They have also done extensive updating of their data initiatives to better assess the information collected to assist in implementing programs in the most efficient and cost-effective manner.

Page 175 of 241 ends

17 Addressing the emergency shelter and transitional housing needs of homeless persons In 2022, the city entered a partnership with the neighboring cities of Garden Grove and Westminster, and the County of Orange, to develop and operate the Central Cities Navigation Center (CCNC). The CCNC opened in June of 2024 and provides an 85-bed emergency shelter with wrap-around social services to individuals experiencing homelessness. The city has 13 dedicated beds available for the unhoused in the city with the flexibility to have more if needed. The CCNC has been an unmitigated success and the 13 beds dedicated to the city are generally full as are the partner cities allotted beds.

Along with the availability of the CCNC, City Net continues to provide housing search and placement services for eligible clients, and they have the resources to locate, and place clients in emergency and transitional housing, throughout the county. City Net and FVPD are also able to refer individuals to the Yale Navigation Center in Santa Ana that is one-half mile outside of Fountain Valley. Yale Navigation Center is a 425-bed interim housing site that provides shelter and supportive services for individuals experiencing homelessness in Orange County.

City Net’s programs are aligned with Housing First principals which means they place persons experiencing homelessness into decent, safe housing, before addressing other issues like stabilizing health, reducing harmful behaviors, or increasing income. City Net believes that by using this approach, ensuring that housing is addressed first, allows clients to focus on other pressing issues in order to get stabilized and back to becoming contributing members of society.

In addition to City Net’s services and FVPD efforts, the City allocated CDBG funds to Interval House through the PSA grant. Interval House offers emergency and transitional housing to domestic violence victims who would otherwise be homeless. Last year Interval House assisted 59 women with emergency shelter and support. They also provide the city with 24-hour crisis counseling and community outreach and education.

Helping low-income individuals and families avoid becoming homeless, especially extremely low-income individuals and families and those who are: likely to become homeless after being discharged from publicly funded institutions and systems of care (such as health care facilities, mental health facilities, foster care and other youth facilities, and corrections programs and institutions); and, receiving assistance from public or private agencies that address housing, health, social services, employment, education, or youth needs
The City, via City Net, makes referrals to the County of Orange Continuum of Care Coordinated Entry System (CES) that has established a coordinated system that paves the way for more efficient homeless assistance. Their program helps people move through the system faster by quickly matching them with the appropriate assistance program, and by providing prevention and diversion resources upfront that can oftentimes prevent homelessness. Coordinated Entry is one essential piece of a broader housing crisis resolution system that rapidly returns people who experience homelessness to stable housing. Other elements include shifting investments towards interventions that achieve the

Page 176 of 241 ends

18 best housing results and removing barriers such that there is an appropriate and effective housing intervention for everyone who needs one.

To further assist connecting people experiencing homelessness with additional supportive services offered in Orange County, 2-1-1 Orange County or www.211oc.org has created a “Comprehensive Resource Guide for Orange County”. This virtual one-stop resource guide puts clients in contact with organizations offering supportive services such as substance abuse treatment, mental health services, veterans services, health care, employment services, legal services, disability services, senior services, transportation, and shower facilities. Staff routinely makes referrals to 2-1-1 Orange County for those clients seeking information.

During the 2025-26 reporting period, Fountain Valley allocated the maximum allowable amount of CDBG funds to public service programs. While some of the organizations funded do not directly serve the homeless, many of their activities help prevent homelessness. These activities include shelter and counseling programs for victims of domestic violence and at-risk youth, youth services, and senior services. The City’s Home Improvement Program also prevents potential homelessness by offering grants, rebates, and loans to low-income, owner-occupied households, to pay for repairs to their property that allow them to stay in their homes longer.

Helping homeless persons (especially chronically homeless individuals and families, families with children, veterans and their families, and unaccompanied youth) make the transition to permanent housing and independent living, including shortening the period of time that individuals and families experience homelessness, facilitating access for homeless individuals and families to affordable housing units, and preventing individuals and families who were recently homeless from becoming homeless again
The 2026 Point in Time Count was conducted in January of 2026, and Fountain Valley had 44 unsheltered homeless and 12 in shelters for a total of 56 homeless. Unsheltered homeless are classified as “worst-case housing needs” in the community. As previously discussed, the city provides homeless services via the homeless service provider, City Net, to assist the FVPD CRT in trying to move these clients off the street, and into the CCNC or other transitional or permanent housing. One issue that they often encounter in offering assistance is the fact the homeless population in the City is somewhat transient. Many homeless people, including those living in vehicles, may be in the city one day, and gone the next. City Net and/or the CRT may initiate contact with homeless individuals to offer services, and later they cannot be located for follow-up.

As previously discussed, outside of the CDBG program, the Fountain Valley Housing Authority has provided funding for the 50-unit affordable housing apartment complex, Prado, that has eight units set aside for permanent supportive housing for Veterans Affairs Supportive Housing (VASH) recipients.

This new affordable housing complex is available to extremely low and very low-income households and address “worst case needs” for low-income households in the community.

Additionally, the OCHA provided nine Emergency Housing Vouchers, 14 Continuum of Care Permanent Supportive Program Vouchers, and 20 VASH certificates to Fountain Valley households to assist individuals that are experiencing homelessness or at risk of becoming homeless.

Page 177 of 241 ends

19 The FVPD also refers victims of domestic violence that have become unexpectedly homeless, to emergency shelters. Interval House is funded through the CDBG program to provide emergency and transitional housing for city residents affected by domestic violence, and they assisted 59 households during this reporting period.

20 CR-30 - Public Housing 91.220(h); 91.320(j)
Actions taken to address the needs of public housing
There are no public housing units located in the City of Fountain Valley.

The City collaborates with OCHA to provide affordable housing opportunities through the provision of HUD’s Housing Choice Voucher (formerly Section 8 Rental Assistance) to extremely low and very low-income persons/households including seniors, disabled persons, and persons with special needs. In 2011, the City’s Housing Authority passed a resolution to authorize the Orange County Housing Authority to continue to provide Housing Choice Vouchers in its Areas of Operation within the City of Fountain Valley. In FY 2025-26, 437 vouchers were issued to Fountain Valley households.

The OCHA waitlist is currently closed.

Actions taken to encourage public housing residents to become more involved in management and participate in homeownership
There are no public housing units located in the City of Fountain Valley; therefore, no actions are being taken.

Actions taken to provide assistance to troubled PHAs
There are no public housing units located in the City of Fountain Valley; therefore, no actions are being taken.

Page 179 of 241 ends

21 CR-35 - Other Actions 91.220(j)-(k); 91.320(i)-(j)
Actions taken to remove or ameliorate the negative effects of public policies that serve as barriers to affordable housing such as land use controls, tax policies affecting land, zoning ordinances, building codes, fees and charges, growth limitations, and policies affecting the return on residential investment. 91.220 (j); 91.320 (i) The major barrier the city has to achieving affordable housing goals is the exorbitant cost of existing housing and the increasingly high cost of housing construction and land costs. Another major factor is the lack of available land that would produce an economically viable option for production of housing for low- and moderate-income households.

In the 2021-29 Housing Element, some areas of the city were rezoned to allow for higher density developments which is expected to result in the addition of affordable housing units. In addition to the rezoned land, the City Council passed an Inclusionary Ordinance in 2024,requiring all new housing developments with 10 or more units to provide 15% of the units to low-income households to provide more affordable housing in the community. There are currently five apartment developments in some stage of construction, pre-application or the entitlement process that are expected to yield approximately 1,500 new additional rental units. Of those, approximately 243 will be affordable for low-income households.

In 2017, in an effort to identify land readily available for affordable housing, the City modified the Harbor Boulevard South Island Specific Plan to allow affordable housing units to be developed by right. An affordable housing developer purchased vacant land in the specific plan area, built a 50-unit affordable housing apartment complex, which was fully leased up in 2022. This is the Prado project mentioned earlier in this report. The complex has eight units dedicated to Permanent Support Housing for VASH recipients and the remainder to primarily extremely low and very low-income households. The VA provides social services on site for the veterans and Lifesteps Social Service Agency provides services for the remaining units. Lifesteps services are targeted to the tenant population to ensure that the services provided serve the best interests of the tenants.

To further remove barriers to transitional and supportive housing, the City Council previously passed an ordinance in 2016 permitting transitional and supportive housing by right in all residential zones in an attempt to dissolve barriers to their operation in the city.

Actions taken to address obstacles to meeting underserved needs. 91.220(k); 91.320(j) The City utilizes its entire PSA budget to fund services for underserved individuals in our community.

The PSA Grants provide CDBG funds to agencies that have programs for many of the underserved communities including the low and moderate-income elderly, domestic violence victims and youth.

To assist the underserved elderly frail/elderly population, the City monitored 154 units of senior rental housing for very low and low-income seniors and collaborated with the Orange County Housing Authority who provided Housing Choice Vouchers to 437 very low-income seniors. The City provided CDBG funds through the PSA Program to: Meals on Wheels that delivered meals to 31 homebound seniors and provided congregate meals at the senior center for 111 low-income city residents.

Page 180 of 241 ends

22 The city also provides referrals to County programs that are designed to provide a level of care that allows persons with low incomes to receive assistance such as food, shelter, medical needs. There are also private efforts that the city collaborates with such as low-income utility discount programs.

Outside of CDBG, the city funds a senior Referral and Resource program and peer support groups that connect seniors to much needed resources and assistance.

Through the partnership with Orange County Housing Authority, 437 Housing Choice Vouchers were provided to low-income individuals, including many with physical and mental disabilities. Additionally, the city continued to ensure all accessibility features are installed during construction of new housing units in compliance with Fair Housing requirements.

Actions taken to reduce lead-based paint hazards. 91.220(k); 91.320(j) The City provides lead-based paint hazard testing and/or risk assessment for home rehabilitation applicants whose homes were built pre-1978 utilizing CDBG funds.

The city will continue to provide Lead Based Paint Hazard Grants to approved rehabilitation program recipients as part of home improvement program, in compliance with HUD requirements. If a home tests positive for lead in a project area, the grant will also provide funds for abatement. In FY 2025-26, five homes were tested for lead-based paint hazards with negative results. Some properties receiving assistance were tested for lead in the previous fiscal year or were exempt from the lead testing requirement due to being built after 1978.

The city also provides Lead Awareness flyers for contractors at the building department.

Actions taken to reduce the number of poverty-level families. 91.220(k); 91.320(j) According to 2024 American Community Survey estimates, the percentage of the population with income beneath the poverty level in the State of California was 8.5% and the whole USA was also 8.5%.

In comparison, the estimated percentage of residents in Fountain Valley with income below the poverty line was 5.1%.

The city utilizes its entire public service budget to supply grants that assist underserved individuals, which includes residents living below poverty level. The Public Service Program provides programs for low and moderate-income elderly, domestic violence victims, and youth and their families that they might not otherwise be able to afford. The City additionally provides grants, rebates and low interest deferred payment loans to low-income homeowners to assist with any necessary repairs on their owner-occupied property, to keep their properties safe and sanitary.

The city also supports many County programs that are designed to provide a level of care that allows persons with extremely low incomes and below to receive assistance such as food, shelter, and medical needs. This includes collaborating with private companies to support programs such as lowincome utility discount programs. The city continues its partnership with OCHA to provide rental assistance to low-income households.

23 Actions taken to develop institutional structure. 91.220(k); 91.320(j) The City of Fountain Valley’s Community Development Department serves as the lead agency for the implementation of all programs/projects/activities outlined within the Consolidated Plan and subsequent Annual Action Plans. The department is comprised of the Housing and Community Development (HCD) Division, Building Division, Code Enforcement, and the Planning Division.

Additionally, the city continued to participate in efforts to work collectively and cooperatively with other Orange County jurisdictions by participating in countywide efforts for all housing programs.

Actions taken to enhance coordination between public and private housing and social service agencies. 91.220(k); 91.320(j)
The City of Fountain Valley does not operate any public housing; however, relationships with both private for-profit developers and non-profit public service providers remain active as the city continues to implement its community development programs. To maintain and enhance existing relationships between public, private and non-profit organizations, the City of Fountain Valley will continue to participate in all local and regional information and referral meetings between agencies. As discussed earlier, the city provides funding to several non-profit social service agencies through the Public Service Agency Grant program.

The city continues to support and encourage efforts of the OCHA to coordinate private housing resources and social service agencies’ programs.

Identify actions taken to overcome the effects of any impediments identified in the jurisdictions analysis of impediments to fair housing choice. 91.520(a) Per the interim final rule effective May 2, 2025, the city did not conduct a jurisdictional Analysis of Impediments to fair housing however we continue to take active steps to promote fair housing in the city.

In 2024, the City of Fountain Valley passed an Inclusionary Ordinance requiring all new 10-unit or more housing developments to make 15% of the units available for low-income households. As discussed earlier, the city anticipates having approximately 225 new affordable units over the next several years.

To ensure Fountain Valley residents have no-cost access to expert advice regarding fair housing, the City funds Fair Housing Council of Orange County (FHCOC) who provides Fair Housing services to the community. During FY 2025-26, FHCOC handled a total of 131 general housing and discrimination complaints and inquiries from City residents and property owners. 402 possible violations were received from the 131 inquiries. The most common complaints were regarding rental agreements (119), household repairs (40), and 30-day and 60-day notice questions (43). FHCOC was able to assist all residents with their issues without making any outside referrals.

FHCOC provides an annual report detailing the City’s and FHCOC significant accomplishments addressing Fair Housing. The Fair Housing Council of Orange County Analysis of Impediments FY 2025-26 Accomplishments report is attached.

30 During the 2025-2026 report period, the City of Fountain Valley took the following actions (on its own or in cooperation with regional partners and the Fair Housing Council of Orange County (FHCOC) to overcome impediments to fair housing choice identified in the regional AI:
 Fair Housing Community Education – During 2025-2026, the FHCOC regionally conducted or participated in 10 virtual and 36 in-person education and/or outreach activities, reaching a culturally and ethnically diverse audience, in which they made participants aware of fair housing laws and counseling services (including services to help households improve their readiness for a home purchase). As a result of practices that became commonplace and accepted due to the COVID-19 pandemic, the use of virtual education remained a major component during the 2025-2026 period, especially for workshop presentations. All of the 10 virtual activities were not specific to only residents of Fountain Valley, but they were all available to those residents.

Regionally, about 2,917 people were contacted or served by these activities. Through its various regional outreach efforts FHCOC distributed over 8,150 information pieces on fair housing, its services and other housing-related topics, in either English, Spanish or Vietnamese. Most of these items were distributed either directly or via mail or bulk delivery, while some were delivered electronically. Additionally, throughout the Southern California region FHCOC held 14 virtual training sessions for rental property owners/managers, with another 5 presented in person, with most involving managers and owners with properties in Orange County. FHCOC also presented 2 virtual fair housing seminars for housing providers in cooperation with the Apartment Association of Orange County (AAOC). Nine general fair housing workshops intended for participation by either housing consumers or providers, or both, were provided throughout Orange County. Because 7 of these were virtual, they were not specific to residents of Fountain Valley, but they were largely available to those residents.  Fair Housing Enforcement – On a regional basis, FHCOC staff performed 152 intakes regarding fair housing issues, which resulted in the receipt of 123 allegations of housing discrimination and the opening of 33 case files where the allegations seemed sufficiently meritorious to warrant further investigation and/or action. We also counseled or informed another 119 clients regarding fair housing law and/or rights. Four allegations arose from Fountain Valley; however, no cases were opened as a result. On a regional basis, FHCOC also conducted 59 paired telephonic, systemic tests for discriminatory rental housing practices. Four systemic rental tests involved locations in Fountain Valley.
 Housing Dispute Evaluation & Resolution – On a regional basis, activities provided by FHCOC included assisting 2,737 unduplicated households addressing 8,272 issues, disputes and/or inquires.

Of these, 131 unduplicated households, involving 402 issues, disputes and/or inquiries, were from Fountain Valley.
 Reasonable Accommodations – On a regional basis, 19 inquiries regarding reasonable accommodations and modifications were received by FHCOC that resulted in casework beyond basic

Page 189 of 241 ends

31 counseling. No inquiries arose from Fountain Valley. Overall, 8 of the 19 clients requested and received a reasonable accommodation/or reasonable modification. 2 clients did not follow through in the process, 8 clients’ requests were deemed not implementable, in addition, one reasonable accommodation request was denied by the housing provider, although FHCOC determined that the request had sufficient merit to warrant approval. As a result, the client was referred to the California Civil Rights Department (CRD) for further assistance.
 Web-based Outreach – FHCOC’s website currently has an on-line housing discrimination complaintreporting tool that generates an email to FHCOC. It is also used for other, non-discrimination, housing-related issues. The City of Fountain Valley has a website link to the FHCOC website where residents can access this information.
 Monitoring On-line Advertising – Orange County rentals listed on Craigslist were monitored by FHCOC for discriminatory content (as permitted by staffing limitations). Any discriminatory advertisements were flagged as prohibited and FHCOC responded to these ads through Craigslist’s reply mechanism in order to inform the poster of possible discriminatory content.

In most instances it was not possible to identify the property address and the identity of the individual making the posting. When possible FHCOC also brought these ads to the attention of Craigslist to hasten their removal, although the Craigslist reporting mechanism is no longer simple. When investigation was found to be feasible, the ad was referred to FHCOC’s investigators for possible enforcement action. Other on-line rental advertising sites (e.g., OC Register, LA Times, Westside Rentals, Zillow, etc.) were sporadically monitored; however, the lack of an efficient text search function on these sites made monitoring them less practical.

Without exception, among the ‘apt / housing’ Craigslist rental listings, the identified problematic postings indicated restrictions with regard to children under the age of 18 or improper preference for seniors or ‘older adults’ for housing opportunities that did not appear to qualify as housing for older persons (age 55 and over). Overt racial or national origin discrimination in postings was not observed. Advertising in the “rooms/shared’ area of Craigslist was observed to have a higher incidence of stated preferences that violated fair housing law.

However, due to the practical aspects of resource limitations and case law considerations of shared housing situations, most were not acted upon.

With the change in California law effective January 1, 2020, that expanded ‘source of income’ protections to individuals who use forms of housing rent assistance, such as the Housing Choice Voucher (often called ‘Section 8’), FHCOC had previously identified numerous Craigslist postings that contained discriminatory language regarding the use of housing rental assistance during 2020. In the 2025-2026 program year, FHCOC did not find any Craigslist postings for Orange County rentals that discriminated against users of a Housing Choice Voucher, even though this continued to be an issue in other parts of Southern California.

However, several callers brought to our attention a few ads for Orange County rentals on other platforms that had stated an illegal refusal to accept housing assistance. When possible, we reached out to the individuals offering the housing to demand a change in their ad.

Page 190 of 241 ends

32  Monitor Home Mortgage Disclosure Act Data - Ongoing monitoring of Home Mortgage Disclosure Act (HMDA) data continues to be infeasible due to limited resources at FHCOC. FHCOC last was able to conduct such analysis using 2008 data (then the latest available) in conjunction with the preparation of the 2010-2015 Regional AI. Analysis of updated HMDA data from 2013, as well as other mortgage lending practices, was included as part of the City of Fountain Valley’s FY 2015-2020 Regional Analysis of Impediments to Fair Housing Choice (AI), which was submitted as part of its Five-Year Consolidated Plan FY 2015 - 2020. Similarly, the recently completed Regional Orange County Analysis of Impediments to Fair Housing Choice for the 2020-2024 Consolidated Plan cycle, contained some basic analysis of regional HMDA data for the period of 2014-2017. That analysis showed disparities in the access to loans on the basis of race, with minority applicants having less access than white applicants.

Further HMDA analysis to assess possible mortgage lending disparities on the basis of race and ethnicity in Orange County will require the provision of funding specific for that purpose.  Other Actions to Affirmatively Further Fair Housing - During 2025-2026, FHCOC continued efforts to promote housing affordability within Orange County. It provided services and outreach to organizations involved in the creation and preservation of affordable housing. These groups included the Kennedy Commission, Mental Health Association of Orange County, Radiant Health (formerly Aids Services Foundation), Affordable Housing Clearinghouse, Jamboree Housing Corporation, Mercy House, South County Outreach, Families Forward, Orange County Congregations Community Organizations, and Orange County Community Housing Corporation.

During the 2025-2026 reporting period, FHCOC continued to offer fair housing training sessions, and these were open to all local government staff. As has become the norm since COVID-19 imposed restrictions first appeared, more than half of all trainings were conducted virtually. Training activity included providing in-person training to staff of the Orange County Housing Authority (OCHA), which serves Fountain Valley. Any City of Fountain Valley staff attending our offered training could receive certification of their attendance.

The FHCOC produced and provided written fair housing-related materials in English, Spanish and Vietnamese to the persons in Fountain Valley. Some materials were distributed by mail or email to persons contacting our agency or participating in virtual outreach activities. FHCOC also undertook specific virtual outreach efforts to immigrant populations in low-income neighborhoods. On a regional basis, an estimated 526 limited English proficiency (LEP) households were served during the 12-month program period, through either telephonic contact, or a combination of virtual and inperson education and outreach activities. FHCOC also continued to implement activities under HUD Fair Housing Initiatives Program grants, for both education and outreach and fair housing enforcement. These program efforts specifically targeted fair housing services to persons with disabilities, minority groups and immigrant communities, especially immigrants with limited English proficiency. Program efforts included a fair housing testing program that sought to involve members of immigrant populations with limited English proficiency, both for the purpose of enforcing fair housing laws as testers and as a vehicle to increase outreach to these populations.

Through its status as a HUD-approved Housing Counseling agency, FHCOC assisted individuals, including those with limited English proficiency (LEP), with various housing related problems. This

Page 191 of 241 ends

33 included being available to counsel and assist those who had received loans with documents, all prepared in English, which had terms that may have been different from what they believed or were informed they were obtaining, or of which they had less than a full understanding. Many of the other counseling activities under its HUD-approved Housing Counseling also assisted individuals with LEP.

DISCUSSION
During the September 25, 2025, City Council meeting, the City Council approved a transition to the proposed city-operated Ambulance Program, whereby emergency medical service (EMS) ambulance operations will be fully integrated into the Fire Department’s operations. In addition, at this meeting, the City Council directed the Fire Department to coordinate a detailed transition plan with a target implementation date of December 2026. One critical component of implementing the city-operated Ambulance Program is completing modifications to the Fire Stations Nos. 1 and 2 facilities, located at 17737 Bushard Street and 16767 Newhope Street, respectively.

The City’s Ambulance Program will provide modifications to Fire Stations Nos. 1 and 2, including improvements to the living spaces, and provide gender-neutral restroom facilities to adequately accommodate future ambulance personnel. Work at the Fire Station No. 1 facility consists of interior improvements to the dormitories, restrooms, apparatus room, and parking lot. Work at the Fire Station No. 2 facility consists of interior improvements to the reception area, Captain’s dormitory, front walkway, and Captain’s office. Specifically, the work includes demolition, plumbing, mechanical, and electrical modifications, new finishes, and all other miscellaneous improvements required to deliver complete, operational turnkey facilities.

PROCUREMENT
On July 30, 2026, the City publicly advertised Request for Bid (RFB) No. 26-012 for Project No. 26020 - Fire Station 1 & 2 Improvements for the Ambulance Program. On August 24, 2026, the City received nine (9) bids for the Project. A2Z Construct Inc. was determined to be the lowest responsive and responsible bidder, submitting a bid in the amount of $165,000.

Santa Ana. Additionally, all referenced agencies recommended the contractor, noting A2Z Construct Inc. demonstrated good workmanship and reliability during construction.

As such, Staff recommends the City Council award a contract to A2Z Construct Inc. for Project No. 26020 – Fire Station 1 & 2 Improvements for the Ambulance Program as the firm is the lowest responsible and responsive bidder.

FISCAL REVIEW
The Ambulance Program improvements for Fire Station 1 & 2 have a total cost of $197,450, which is not currently included in the FY 2026/27 adopted budget. Staff requests an additional appropriation of $116,450 within the Capital Improvement Fund, with offsetting transfers to the General Fund.

^Note that, as in all of the City’s Public Works contracts, the contract itself provides the Director of Public Works authority to issue change orders of up to 10% of the original contract amount. When the Council approves the contract, it approves this authority. Ten percent is generally considered within the normal range of changed conditions on a Public Works construction project and, by providing change order authority upfront, Council helps to reduce the possibility of delay damages that could be incurred when a contractor must stop work and wait for authorization to proceed. However, due to the unpredictable nature of building facility work and a timesensitive schedule, City staff recommends that Council authorize the Director of Public Works a change order authority of 15% of the original contract amount for this project.

ALTERNATIVES
Staff is recommending that the City Council:

Alternative No. 1:

1. Accept the bids and award a construction contract to A2Z Construct Inc. for Project No. 26020 - Fire Station 1 & 2 Improvements for the Ambulance Program, in the amount not-toexceed $165,000.

2. Approve a FY2026/2027 Budget Amendment in the amount of $116,450 for Project No. 26020 - Fire Station 1 & 2 Improvements for the Ambulance Program.

3. Approve the Director of Public Works to have a one-time 15% Change Order authority for this Project.

Alternative No. 2:

Reject all bids and direct staff to re-advertise for new bids. This is not the recommended action, as this has a high potential to result in higher-priced construction bids, and the project’s modifications are needed for the Ambulance Program’s December 2026 start date.

City of Fountain Valley
Memorandum
TO: Honorable Mayor and City Council
FROM: Rob Frizzelle, Community Services Director/Deputy City Manager DATE: 8/21/2026
SUBJECT: Appointments to the Cultural, Arts, Recreation, Sports and Seniors (CARSS) Advisory Committee
______________________________________________________________________________ EXECUTIVE SUMMARY:

At the Augst 18, 2026, City Council Study session, staff received direction on the creation of a Cultural, Arts, Recreation, Sports and Seniors Advisory Committee (CARSS Committee). This advisory committee will work to improve integration, communication, and culturally responsive programming for the Vietnamese community in conjunction with other identified demographics within our community.

Appointments to the CARSS Advisory Committee is scheduled for the September 15, 2026, City Council Meeting.

DISCUSSION:

The CARSS Advisory Committee shall consist of seven (7) members, five city residents directly appointed by each City Council Member and two city staff. Staff shall be appointed by the City Manager, and it is recommended to have a staff member from the Community Services Department and the Police Department.

Direct Appointments: Each City Council Member shall directly appoint (no interviews) one City of Fountain Valley resident at the September 15, 2026, City Council Meeting. The initial term of the CARSS Committee members will remain in effect until December 31, 2028. Thereafter, it will be a two-year team, running from January 1 through December 31.

The CARSS Advisory Committee shall convene quarterly with the first meeting scheduled for October 2026.

RECOMMENDATIONS:

Staff recommends thoughtful consideration for the direct appointments as the committee looks to represent the diverse population and demographics which make up our community. As the city looks toward implementing the Parks and Community Services Master Plan, it is imperative that these spaces, programs, and community events are tailored to our current and future community demographics. The implementation of a Cultural, Arts, Recreation, Sports and Seniors Advisory Committee will provide needed input into the decision making process to support these identified demographics.
