CITY COUNCIL MEETING
REPORT TO THE CITY COUNCIL
DATE: January 20, 2026
FROM: MATT FLOOD, Community & Economic Development Director SUBJECT: ACTIONS PERTAINING TO: Abatement of 318 S. 8th Street i. CONSIDER, Resolution No. 2822, Approving a proposal for MAG Engineering, Inc. for the abatement of 318 S. 8th
Street. Staff Recommendation: Approve Resolution No.
2822; and
ii. AUTHORIZE the City Manager to execute the proposal
EXECUTIVE SUMMARY
Staff is seeking Council approval of a proposal for $63,755.05 from MAG Engineering, Inc. for the abatement of 318 S. 8th Street, allowing the City Manager to execute the proposal.
BACKGROUND
Code Enforcement staff began the process to abate a dilapidated and vacant building at 318 S. 8th Street. After no action on the part of the registered owners to address the problem, staff set about procuring a warrant from the court and a contractor to perform the work.
Having acquired both, staff was finalizing details of the work when, on January 6th, a fire happened in the building. In the process of putting out the fire, a necessary mixing of materials happened, converting what was previously an identified and contained area of asbestos into an undetermined area and spread of the contaminated material.
Staff had two options: do a new asbestos survey to determine what parts are and are not contaminated, or simply assume the whole of the material is contaminated and do the work accordingly. Staff opted for the latter, as that would save time and likely result in a similar cost as the first option.
This change increased the cost of the agreement to an amount above the authority of the City Manager to approve. Therefore, the modified proposal (titled “Change Order #1” by the contractor but containing the entire cost of the project) is attached to the accompanying resolution and is for a total of $63,755.05

A RESOLUTION OF THE CITY COUNCIL OF THE CITY OF FOWLER
APPROVING A PROPOSAL WITH MAG ENGINEERING, INC. FOR THE ABATEMENT OF 318 S. 8TH STREET
WHEREAS, the City Council is empowered to take all action necessary to preserve the health and safety of the community of Fowler; and
WHEREAS, the Code Enforcement division performed all needful and diligent processes to perform the forced abatement of a nuisance structure located at 318 S. 8th Street in Fowler, CA, including asbestos assessments, legal notices, court-petitioned warrant for encroachment and removal, and the commitment of a contractor to perform the abatement work; and WHEREAS, a fire on January 6, 2026 caused unexpected mixing of asbestos-containing materials, creating a site-wide contamination, where contamination was previously identified and contained to a minor part of the structure; and
WHEREAS, staff concurred with the third-party contractor that, due to the mixing of building materials during extinguishment of the fire, it is prudent and safe to assume the entirety of the structure contains contaminated material;
WHEREAS, a modified estimate of the costs related to the abatement of said contaminated materials caused the total cost of the project to exceed the City Manager’s authority in executing an agreement for the services.

II. PROGRAM DESCRIPTION
Name of the youth program or project for which you are requesting Amt. of Funding Requested:
funding: Fowler Youth Football $ 2,000
Is this a new or existing program? (circle one) New I l Existing) Number of clients this program is currently serving in the current fiscal year: 124 Number of clients this youth program is expected to serve in the next fiscal year: 140 Provide a description of your organization and a detailed description of the proposed project explaining precisely what is to be accomplished with the funds requested. What is the primary project goal? Include details on the nature and scope of the situation to be addressed.
The main goal for the use of these funds is helmet certification. Every season we send off half of our helmets to be certified by Riddell in San Diego (every helmet needs to be certified every two years). They are inspecting our helmets for any defective helmets that would jeopardize the safety of our kids. Every helmet runs around $50-70 to be certified and this could be anywhere from looking for cracks on helmets to replacing screws or jaw pads. This becomes costly over time, but it is a cost we take very seriously. We usually send our helmets at the end of the season ( end of November early December) and we won't get them back until February. These funds will cover and help pay for solely the certification of our helmets.
Identify and describe the target population. Our Program targets any youth 7-14 years old here in Fowler and Malaga. It can also be male or female
How will this program be promoted among the target population? This program mostly promotes itself though references of families from previous years. We also do some fundraising for the community and our home games are a huge part as well.
Identify the facility at which the proposed project services will be provided, including hours and days. As for the certification of helmets we work with Riddell. They collect all the helmets we are sending out and then it takes about 4-5 months to get them back. This usually takes place in the off season.

CITY COUNCIL MEETING
REPORT TO THE CITY COUNCIL
DATE: Tuesday, January 20, 2026
FROM: NANCY BANDA, Finance Director/Treasurer
SUBJECT: CONSIDER, Resolution No. 2821, Approving and Adopting Budget Amendments for Various Funds for Fiscal Year 2025-2026. Staff Recommendation: Approve Resolution No. 2821
EXECUTIVE SUMMARY
This item proposes amendments to the City’s previously adopted budget to accurately reflect current operational needs and ensure the budget remains balanced. Since adoption of the original budget, changes in service demands, expenditure timing, and operational requirements have occurred that were not fully anticipated during the initial budget development process. These amendments are necessary to align appropriation with actual and projected cost while maintaining fiscal responsibility. In addition, this action authorizes the City Manager to make administrative adjustments between line items within the same fund, department, or functional category, as necessary to support ongoing operations, provided that such adjustments do not increase total appropriations or alter the adopted bottom-line budget.
This delegated authority allows for timely and efficient management of day-to-day operations while preserving City Council’s policy-level control over total spending.
BACKGROUND
Staff recommends several budget amendments based on operational changes during the first half of the Fiscal Year. Below is a summary of amendments:
GENERAL FUND
The General Fund supports essential services including Police, Fire, Public Works, Community Development, Parks, Recreation, and the Senior Center. The proposed appropriation increases are driven by costs associated with a police vehicle lease, implementation of new building permit software, engineering and planning consultant services, the addition of two part-time positions to support recreation activities and animal services in our community, and adjustments to salaries and benefits. The following are the proposed amendments to the General Fund:
City Administration – Tax & Allow $106,000.00

The purchase of street sweeper is the proposed amendments to Measure C:

CDBG
The Community Development Block Grant (CDBG) is a federal funding program created under the Housing and Community Development Act of 1974 and is overseen by the U.S.

The transfer of program income to the County of Fresno Public Works Department to administer the City’s CDBG program is the proposed amendment to CDBG:
CDBG – Professional Services $724,103.00
70 Section 10, Item B
STATE GRANT AB178
The State Grant AB178 Fund is an appropriation from the State of California that is restricted for public safety purposes. The construction of the Police Department Headquarters is the use for this fund.
