STAFF REPORT
TO: MAYOR AND COUNCIL MEMBERS DATE: FEBRUARY 28, 2022
FROM: CITY CLERK DISTRICT(S): CITYWIDE
SUBJECT: ADOPT A RESOLUTION RE-AUTHORIZING REMOTE TELECONFERENCE MEETINGS OF THE LEGISLATIVE BODIES FOR THE CITY OF GLENDORA FOR THE 30-DAY PERIOD BEGINNING MARCH 1, 2022 THROUGH MARCH 31, 2022 PURSUANT TO THE RALPH M. BROWN ACT AND AB 361

RECOMMENDATION
That the City Council:

1. Adopt a City Council Resolution entitled, “A RESOLUTION OF THE CITY COUNCIL RERATIFYING THE PROCLAMATION OF A STATE OF EMERGENCY BY GOVERNOR NEWSOM ON MARCH 4, 2020, AND RE-AUTHORIZING REMOTE TELECONFERENCE MEETINGS OF THE LEGISLATIVE BODIES OF THE CITY OF GLENDORA FOR THE 30-DAY PERIOD BEGINNING MARCH 1, 2022 THROUGH MARCH 31, 2022 PURSUANT TO THE RALPH M.

BROWN ACT AND AB 361.”

EXECUTIVE SUMMARY
On June 11, 2021, the Governor issued Executive Order (EO) N-08-21 to begin winding down some of the prior measures that were adopted to respond to COVID-19. Notably, EO N-08-21 rescinds the Brown Act Orders, effective September 30, 2021. On September 16, 2021, Governor Newsom signed Assembly Bill (AB) 361 (Rivas, 2021), which allows cities to continue to meet remotely during proclaimed states of emergency under modified Brown Act requirements that are similar but not identical to the rules and procedures established by the Brown Act Orders. The pending expiration of the Brown Act Orders and the enactment of AB 361 created some ambiguity. To provide clarification, the Governor issued Executive Order N-15-21 (Attachment A), explaining that cities may continue to hold meetings in accordance with the Brown Act Orders until September 30, or they may hold meetings in accordance with the requirements of AB 361.

Starting at the September 28, 2021 City Council meeting, and at a monthly meeting thereafter the Glendora City Council has considered and adopted Resolutions ratifying the State of Emergency by Governor Newsom and reauthorize remote teleconference meetings of the legislative bodies of the City of Glendora for an additional 30-day period in accordance with the requirements of AB 361. In order to continue online meetings pursuant to AB 361 (Attachment B), the City Council would need to adopt the attached resolution (Attachment C) every 30-days and make specific findings in support of continuing remote meetings.

LEGISLATIVE HISTORY / PREVIOUS ACTIONS
During early March 2020, in response to the COVID-19 pandemic, Governor Newsom issued Executive Orders N-25-20, N-29-20, N-35-20 (collectively, the Brown Act Orders), which, among other things, suspended the provisions of the Brown Act expressly or impliedly requiring the physical presence of Council Members, staff, or the public at local agency meetings (Numbered 1 through 6, above) and specifically allowed for Legislative Bodies (City Council, Commissions, Committees, etc.) to hold meetings entirely virtually with no physical meeting place. These changes made it feasible and safer for Brown Act bodies to meet remotely, with meeting participants joining virtual platforms such as Zoom or WebEx, for Item #8. Page 1
Meeting Date: 2/22/2022 / Packet Page #: 15
Staff Report Page 2 of 3
the continued conduct of the government’s business during the pandemic in order to comply with public health orders.

In the interest of health and safety, on March 24, 2020, the City Council ratified and continued an Emergency Proclamation of the Existence of a Local Emergency Issued by the Director of Emergency Services/City Manager (which remains in effect today) and began conducting public meetings virtually with no central physical location where members of the body, staff and the public can gather; this has been the sole means for conducting meetings of all public bodies subject to the Brown Act. To ensure public access, the meetings are being broadcasted live on Spectrum Cable TV Channel 3 and Verizon Channel 31, the City Website www.cityofglendora.org/citymeetings, YouTube at https://www.youtube.com/cityofglendoraca, and on the Media Center at https://www.cityofglendora.org/departments-services/television-and-media. The various ways for members of the public to participate are outlined on the first page of every agenda (in person, virtually, email, phone call, mail and etc).

On June 11, 2021, Governor Newsom issued Executive Order N-08-21 which states that the provisions in Executive Order N-29-20 suspending certain elements of the Brown Act will continue to apply through September 30, 2021 which means that the City would no longer be able to hold entirely virtual meetings starting October 1, 2021.

On September 16, 2021 Governor Newsom signed AB 361, which allows cities to continue to meet remotely during proclaimed states of emergency under modified Brown Act requirements that are similar but not identical to the rules and procedures established by the Brown Act Orders. This pending expiration of the Brown Act Orders and the enactment of AB 361 created ambiguity as to whether cities are required to comply with the requirements of the Brown Act Orders or the requirements of AB 361. To provide clarification, the Governor issued Executive Order N-15-21 (Attachment A) on September 20, 2021, explaining that cities may continue to hold meetings in accordance with the Brown Act Orders until September 30, or they may hold meetings in accordance with the requirements of AB 361 (Attachment B).

Pursuant to Assembly Bill 361, starting at the September 28, 2021 City Council meeting, and again at its October 26, 2021, November 9, 2021, and January 25, 2022 City Council meetings the City Council has considered and unanimously adopted resolutions ratifying the State of Emergency by Governor Newsom and reauthorize remote teleconference meetings of the legislative bodies for a 30-day period or until such time as the City Council adopts a subsequent resolution in accordance with Government Code § 54953(e)(3) to extend the time during which the legislative bodies of the City may continue to teleconference without compliance with paragraph (3) of subdivision (b) of section 54953.

On November 10, 2021 Governor Newsom issued Executive Order N-21-21 which extended the State of Emergency in California due to the COVID-19 pandemic through March 31, 2022.

DISCUSSION
In order to continue to conduct virtual meetings, the City Council is required to make specific findings in support of continuing remote meetings every 30-days by adopting a Resolution, the legislative body must make findings by majority vote on the circumstances of the applicable state of emergency and find either:

1. The state of emergency continues to directly impact the ability of its members to safely meet in person; or

2. That state or local officials continue to impose or recommend COVID-19 infection protocols that impact the quality of Brown Act meetings.

A resolution (Attachment C) that will allow for the City of Glendora to continue online meetings from March 1, 2022 through March 31, 2022 is being presented to the City Council for consideration and action tonight and will be in effect for 30-days, or such time as the City Council adopts a subsequent resolution in accordance with Government Code § 54953(e)(3) to extend the time during which the legislative bodies of the City may continue to teleconference without compliance with paragraph (3) of subdivision (b) of Item #8.

section 54953.

Safety Measures at Public Meetings
All Brown Act meetings are subject to COVID-19 infection protocols set forth by the Federal Government, State of California, County of Los Angeles, and any local rules put in place. Essentially, the Federal Government and State of California set the ceiling for allowance activities, the County sets the floor, and the City can set the basement. To date, the City of Glendora has not implemented any further COVID-19 restrictions and/or infection protocols above and beyond those implemented in the County of Los Angles.

As of this report, the in-person Brown Act meetings conducted in the State of California require that all non-vaccinated individuals wear a face covering while indoors; both visitors and participants. However, in Los Angeles County, the Department of Public Health has issued a more restrictive Health Officer Order, which would require all participants and visitors of Brown Act meetings to wear face coverings, regardless of vaccination status. According to the Los Angeles County Department of Public Heath, indoor masking will be revisited over the next month.

These and other recommended and/or required infection protocols create five main areas of concern with transitioning to any of the module that has an in-person component:

1. Wearing Masks During Meetings. Detrimental to the quality, clarity and the volume of speech and can make it difficult to be understand and to tell who is speaking.

2. Quality of Recording

3. Public Access

4. Room Capacity Limits. The Council Chamber capacity is 89, pre-covid Chamber layout utilized 63 chairs for audience. While additional capacity limits remain unknown, to allow for some additional distancing between rows and/or chairs staff is anticipating that a reduction of chairs by more than 25% (removal of 16 chairs) would be implemented when public meeting return to the Council Chamber.

5. Vaccination/Non-Vaccination protocols.

CHAPTER 165
An act to add and repeal Section 89305.6 of the Education Code, and to amend, repeal, and add Section 54953 of, and to add and repeal Section 11133 of, the Government Code, relating to open meetings, and declaring the urgency thereof, to take effect immediately.

Secretary of State September 16, 2021.]
legislative counsel’s digest
AB 361, Robert Rivas. Open meetings: state and local agencies:
teleconferences.
(1)  Existing law, the Ralph M. Brown Act requires, with specified exceptions, that all meetings of a legislative body of a local agency, as those terms are defined, be open and public and that all persons be permitted to attend and participate. The act contains specified provisions regarding the timelines for posting an agenda and providing for the ability of the public to directly address the legislative body on any item of interest to the public.

The act generally requires all regular and special meetings of the legislative body be held within the boundaries of the territory over which the local agency exercises jurisdiction, subject to certain exceptions. The act allows for meetings to occur via teleconferencing subject to certain requirements, particularly that the legislative body notice each teleconference location of each member that will be participating in the public meeting, that each teleconference location be accessible to the public, that members of the public be allowed to address the legislative body at each teleconference location, that the legislative body post an agenda at each teleconference location, and that at least a quorum of the legislative body participate from locations within the boundaries of the local agency’s jurisdiction. The act provides an exemption to the jurisdictional requirement for health authorities, as defined. The act authorizes the district attorney or any interested person, subject to certain provisions, to commence an action by mandamus or injunction for the purpose of obtaining a judicial determination that specified actions taken by a legislative body are null and void.

Existing law, the California Emergency Services Act, authorizes the Governor, or the Director of Emergency Services when the governor is inaccessible, to proclaim a state of emergency under specified circumstances.

Executive Order No. N-29-20 suspends the Ralph M. Brown Act’s requirements for teleconferencing during the COVID-19 pandemic provided that notice and accessibility requirements are met, the public members are allowed to observe and address the legislative body at the meeting, and that a legislative body of a local agency has a procedure for receiving and swiftly

92 Item #8. Page 6
Meeting Date: 2/22/2022 / Packet Page #: 20
resolving requests for reasonable accommodation for individuals with disabilities, as specified.

This bill, until January 1, 2024, would authorize a local agency to use teleconferencing without complying with the teleconferencing requirements imposed by the Ralph M. Brown Act when a legislative body of a local agency holds a meeting during a declared state of emergency, as that term is defined, when state or local health officials have imposed or recommended measures to promote social distancing, during a proclaimed state of emergency held for the purpose of determining, by majority vote, whether meeting in person would present imminent risks to the health or safety of attendees, and during a proclaimed state of emergency when the legislative body has determined that meeting in person would present imminent risks to the health or safety of attendees, as provided.

This bill would require legislative bodies that hold teleconferenced meetings under these abbreviated teleconferencing procedures to give notice of the meeting and post agendas, as described, to allow members of the public to access the meeting and address the legislative body, to give notice of the means by which members of the public may access the meeting and offer public comment, including an opportunity for all persons to attend via a call-in option or an internet-based service option, and to conduct the meeting in a manner that protects the statutory and constitutional rights of the parties and the public appearing before the legislative body. The bill would require the legislative body to take no further action on agenda items when there is a disruption which prevents the public agency from broadcasting the meeting, or in the event of a disruption within the local agency’s control which prevents members of the public from offering public comments, until public access is restored. The bill would specify that actions taken during the disruption are subject to challenge proceedings, as specified.

This bill would prohibit the legislative body from requiring public comments to be submitted in advance of the meeting and would specify that the legislative body must provide an opportunity for the public to address the legislative body and offer comment in real time. The bill would prohibit the legislative body from closing the public comment period and the opportunity to register to provide public comment, until the public comment period has elapsed or until a reasonable amount of time has elapsed, as specified. When there is a continuing state of emergency, or when state or local officials have imposed or recommended measures to promote social distancing, the bill would require a legislative body to make specified findings not later than 30 days after the first teleconferenced meeting pursuant to these provisions, and to make those findings every 30 days thereafter, in order to continue to meet under these abbreviated teleconferencing procedures.

Existing law prohibits a legislative body from requiring, as a condition to attend a meeting, a person to register the person’s name, or to provide other information, or to fulfill any condition precedent to the person’s attendance.
92 Ch. 165 — 2 —
Item #8. Page 7
Meeting Date: 2/22/2022 / Packet Page #: 21
This bill would exclude from that prohibition, a registration requirement imposed by a third-party internet website or other online platform not under the control of the legislative body.
(2)  Existing law, the Bagley-Keene Open Meeting Act, requires, with specified exceptions, that all meetings of a state body be open and public and all persons be permitted to attend any meeting of a state body. The act requires at least one member of the state body to be physically present at the location specified in the notice of the meeting.

The Governor’s Executive Order No. N-29-20 suspends the requirements of the Bagley-Keene Open Meeting Act for teleconferencing during the COVID-19 pandemic, provided that notice and accessibility requirements are met, the public members are allowed to observe and address the state body at the meeting, and that a state body has a procedure for receiving and swiftly resolving requests for reasonable accommodation for individuals with disabilities, as specified.

This bill, until January 31, 2022, would authorize, subject to specified notice and accessibility requirements, a state body to hold public meetings through teleconferencing and to make public meetings accessible telephonically, or otherwise electronically, to all members of the public seeking to observe and to address the state body. With respect to a state body holding a public meeting pursuant to these provisions, the bill would suspend certain requirements of existing law, including the requirements that each teleconference location be accessible to the public and that members of the public be able to address the state body at each teleconference location. Under the bill, a state body that holds a meeting through teleconferencing and allows members of the public to observe and address the meeting telephonically or otherwise electronically would satisfy any requirement that the state body allow members of the public to attend the meeting and offer public comment. The bill would require that each state body that holds a meeting through teleconferencing provide notice of the meeting, and post the agenda, as provided. The bill would urge state bodies utilizing these teleconferencing procedures in the bill to use sound discretion and to make reasonable efforts to adhere as closely as reasonably possible to existing law, as provided.
(3)  Existing law establishes the various campuses of the California State University under the administration of the Trustees of the California State University, and authorizes the establishment of student body organizations in connection with the operations of California State University campuses.

The Gloria Romero Open Meetings Act of 2000 generally requires a legislative body, as defined, of a student body organization to conduct its business in a meeting that is open and public. The act authorizes the legislative body to use teleconferencing, as defined, for the benefit of the public and the legislative body in connection with any meeting or proceeding authorized by law.

This bill, until January 31, 2022, would authorize, subject to specified notice and accessibility requirements, a legislative body, as defined for purposes of the act, to hold public meetings through teleconferencing and 92 — 3 — Ch. 165
Item #8. Page 8
Meeting Date: 2/22/2022 / Packet Page #: 22
to make public meetings accessible telephonically, or otherwise electronically, to all members of the public seeking to observe and to address the legislative body. With respect to a legislative body holding a public meeting pursuant to these provisions, the bill would suspend certain requirements of existing law, including the requirements that each teleconference location be accessible to the public and that members of the public be able to address the legislative body at each teleconference location.

Under the bill, a legislative body that holds a meeting through teleconferencing and allows members of the public to observe and address the meeting telephonically or otherwise electronically would satisfy any requirement that the legislative body allow members of the public to attend the meeting and offer public comment. The bill would require that each legislative body that holds a meeting through teleconferencing provide notice of the meeting, and post the agenda, as provided. The bill would urge legislative bodies utilizing these teleconferencing procedures in the bill to use sound discretion and to make reasonable efforts to adhere as closely as reasonably possible to existing law, as provided.
(4)  This bill would declare the Legislature’s intent, consistent with the Governor’s Executive Order No. N-29-20, to improve and enhance public access to state and local agency meetings during the COVID-19 pandemic and future emergencies by allowing broader access through teleconferencing options.
(5)  This bill would incorporate additional changes to Section 54953 of the Government Code proposed by AB 339 to be operative only if this bill and AB 339 are enacted and this bill is enacted last.
(6)  The California Constitution requires local agencies, for the purpose of ensuring public access to the meetings of public bodies and the writings of public officials and agencies, to comply with a statutory enactment that amends or enacts laws relating to public records or open meetings and contains findings demonstrating that the enactment furthers the constitutional requirements relating to this purpose.

This bill would make legislative findings to that effect. (7)  Existing constitutional provisions require that a statute that limits the right of access to the meetings of public bodies or the writings of public officials and agencies be adopted with findings demonstrating the interest protected by the limitation and the need for protecting that interest.

This bill would make legislative findings to that effect. (8)  This bill would declare that it is to take effect immediately as an urgency statute.

The people of the State of California do enact as follows:

SECTION 1. Section 89305.6 is added to the Education Code, to read:
89305.6. (a)  Notwithstanding any other provision of this article, and subject to the notice and accessibility requirements in subdivisions (d) and (e), a legislative body may hold public meetings through teleconferencing 92 Ch. 165 — 4 —

SEC. 6. It is the intent of the Legislature in enacting this act to improve and enhance public access to state and local agency meetings during the COVID-19 pandemic and future applicable emergencies, by allowing broader access through teleconferencing options consistent with the Governor’s Executive Order No. N-29-20 dated March 17, 2020, permitting expanded use of teleconferencing during the COVID-19 pandemic.

SEC. 7. The Legislature finds and declares that Sections 3 and 4 of this act, which amend, repeal, and add Section 54953 of the Government Code, further, within the meaning of paragraph (7) of subdivision (b) of Section 3 of Article I of the California Constitution, the purposes of that constitutional section as it relates to the right of public access to the meetings of local public bodies or the writings of local public officials and local agencies. Pursuant to paragraph (7) of subdivision (b) of Section 3 of Article I of the California Constitution, the Legislature makes the following findings:

This act is necessary to ensure minimum standards for public participation and notice requirements allowing for greater public participation in teleconference meetings during applicable emergencies.

SEC. 8. (a)  The Legislature finds and declares that during the COVID-19 public health emergency, certain requirements of the Bagley-Keene Open Meeting Act (Article 9 (commencing with Section 11120) of Chapter 1 of Part 1 of Division 3 of Title 2 of the Government Code) were suspended by Executive Order N-29-20. Audio and video teleconference were widely used to conduct public meetings in lieu of physical location meetings, and public meetings conducted by teleconference during the COVID-19 public health emergency have been productive, have increased public participation by all members of the public regardless of their location in the state and ability to travel to physical meeting locations, have protected the health and safety of civil servants and the public, and have reduced travel costs incurred by members of state bodies and reduced work hours spent traveling to and from meetings.

(b)  The Legislature finds and declares that Section 1 of this act, which adds and repeals Section 89305.6 of the Education Code, Section 2 of this act, which adds and repeals Section 11133 of the Government Code, and Sections 3 and 4 of this act, which amend, repeal, and add Section 54953 of the Government Code, all increase and potentially limit the public’s right of access to the meetings of public bodies or the writings of public officials and agencies within the meaning of Section 3 of Article I of the California Constitution. Pursuant to that constitutional provision, the Legislature makes the following findings to demonstrate the interest protected by this limitation and the need for protecting that interest:
(1)  By removing the requirement that public meetings be conducted at a primary physical location with a quorum of members present, this act protects the health and safety of civil servants and the public and does not preference the experience of members of the public who might be able to attend a meeting in a physical location over members of the public who cannot travel or attend that meeting in a physical location. (2)  By removing the requirement for agendas to be placed at the location of each public official participating in a public meeting remotely, including from the member’s private home or hotel room, this act protects the personal, private information of public officials and their families while preserving the public’s right to access information concerning the conduct of the people’s business.

SEC. 9. This act is an urgency statute necessary for the immediate preservation of the public peace, health, or safety within the meaning of Article IV of the California Constitution and shall go into immediate effect.

The facts constituting the necessity are:

In order to ensure that state and local agencies can continue holding public meetings while providing essential services like water, power, and fire protection to their constituents during public health, wildfire, or other states of emergencies, it is necessary that this act take effect immediately.

EXECUTIVE DEPARTMENT

STATE OF CALIFORNIA
EXECUTIVE ORDER N-21-21
WHEREAS on March 4, 2020, I proclaimed a State of Emergency to exist in California as a result of the threat of COVID-19; and WHEREAS in response to the ongoing COVID-19 pandemic and increased spread of the Delta variant, on August 16, 2021, I issued Executive Order N-12-21 to ensure the State's health care facilities continue to have the staffing and resources needed to prevent potential strain on the State's health care delivery system; and

STAFF REPORT
TO: MAYOR AND COUNCIL MEMBERS DATE: FEBRUARY 22, 2022
FROM: COMMUNITY DEVELOPMENT DISTRICT(S): 3
SUBJECT: CONSIDERATION OF A LICENSE AGREEMENT FOR A NEW CELLULAR TELECOMMUNICATIONS FACILITY AT 701 S. ELWOOD AVENUE
(APN 8644-027-902).

RECOMMENDATION
That the City Council:
1) Authorize the Mayor to Execute a License Agreement with New Cellular Wireless PCS, LLC for a new Wireless Communication Facility on City Owned Property at 701 S. Elwood Avenue (APN 8644-027-902)

EXECUTIVE SUMMARY
Telecommunication facilities (also often referred to as “cell sites”) are permitted on City-owned property with approval of a Conditional Use Permit (CUP), as prescribed in §21.03.100(D)(1) of the Glendora Municipal Code (GMC) as well as with approval from the City Council of a License Agreement for use of City-owned land.

In 2020, the City received a request for a CUP from New Cellular Wireless PCS, LLC, doing business as AT&T Mobility (AT&T) for a new wireless telecommunications facility at 701 S. Elwood Avenue, the site is adjacent to Big Dalton Wash Trail at the base of South Hills. The CUP was approved by the Planning Commission and a License Agreement, included as Attachments A, which would allow the carrier to utilize the property has been negotiated for City Council consideration. Attachment B includes the zoning drawings for the proposed project. The initial term of the Agreement is for a period of five years, with options for five, five-year extensions for a total possibility of thirty years. The initial license fee is ThirtyThree Thousand Dollars ($33,000) per year, with an annual increase fixed at 3% per year.

LEGISLATIVE HISTORY / PREVIOUS ACTIONS
On September 1, 2020, the Planning Commission held a Public Hearing and adopted Resolution PC 2020-07 (Attachment C) approving a CUP allowing for the use of a new wireless telecommunication facility at 701 S. Elwood Ave. located at the base of South Hills Park.

DISCUSSION
The City of Glendora maintains eleven separate agreements authorizing the use of City-owned property for cellular telecommunications facilities. The locations include public parks, water, and maintenance facilities throughout the community. These agreements are important as they provide for cell phone service to the community and generate revenue in the form of rental payments. In total, nearly $400,000 in revenue is generated annually benefiting the City’s General Fund.

The proposed Agreement is for a new cell site. The Agreement will be between the City of Glendora (Licensor) and New Cellular Wireless PCS, LLC, (AT&T) (Licensee). The subject site location is located at the northeastern portion of South Hills Park, west of Elwood Avenue, south of the flood control channel, Item #9. Page 1
Meeting Date: 2/22/2022 / Packet Page #: 45
Staff Report Page 2 of 3
north of the “South Hills” and north of the Big Dalton Wash Trail (Attachment D). The site will be accessible off Elwood Ave.

If approved, the site will measure approximately 24 feet by 34 feet, or 816 square feet in total and include a 60-foot-tall ground-mounted tower. To camouflage the tower and its antennae, it will be designed to appear as a water tower that includes an upper tank with faux wood textured material and lower metal steal support framing. Photo simulations are included for review (Attachment E).

The License Agreement and Memorandum of License are presented for City Council consideration. Key provisions of the Agreement are as follows:
 Initial term of five years.
 Five, five-year renewal options, for a total (including initial term) of 30 possible years.  Initial License Fee at $2,750 per month ($33,000 per year).  Annual increase to License Fee of 3% as compared to previous year.  If in the future, another carrier (future sublicensee) requests to locate on the tower and City approval is granted, then the license fee will increase by 50% and be subject to the annual 3% increase.
 An administration fee of $5,500 is included to cover staff and legal costs associated with the negotiation and preparation of the Agreement, it will be due within 45 days of fully executed Agreement.
 License may be terminated by either Licensor or Licensee after the first fifteen years (2037) or with circumstances including failure to cure a default.

The improvements will begin once all requirements of building permits have been met and permit issued, however the license fee will commence upon the effective date of the Agreement, which is the date the Agreement is fully executed by both Licensor and Licensee.

FISCAL IMPACT
If approved, the License Agreement will generate $33,000 in the first 12 months. Thereafter, annual revenue will increase by 3%; the first five-year term will generate $175,201 in revenue for the City. Unless otherwise amended or terminated, the lease would expire with revenue continuing through December 2051.

ENVIRONMENTAL DETERMINATION
A Notice of Exemption (NOE) – Categorical Exemption was prepared (Attachment F) pursuant to California Environmental Act (CEQA) Guidelines §15303 (New Construction or Conversion of small structures – Class 3) as part of the CUP process.

to appeal a determination of increased coverage by Licensor to the City Council of Licensor within 30 days of receipt of notice from Licensor.

7. Late Payment.

Licensee hereby acknowledges that late payment by Licensee to Licensor of the License Fee or other sums due hereunder will cause Licensor to incur costs not contemplated by this Agreement, the exact amount of which is extremely difficult to ascertain. Such costs include, but are not limited to, processing and accounting charges. Accordingly, any payment of any sum to be paid by Licensee that is not paid within five (5) days of its due date shall be subject to a five percent (5%) late charge.

Exhibit C
Bond Requirements
No demolition nor construction shall be commenced nor be deemed to have commenced at the Premises until Licensee has provided Licensor with a surety bond in the amount of the total estimated demolition or construction costs of the improvements to be constructed by Licensee.

The surety bond shall be in a form reasonably acceptable to the Licensor’s Engineer and shall state the following:

1. That it is conditioned to secure the completion of the proposed demolition or construction, free from all liens and claims of contractors, subcontractors, mechanics, laborers, and materialmen.

2. That the installation, removal, demolition or construction work shall be fully and faithfully performed by Licensee, the general contractor, or, on their default, the surety.

3. That in default of such completion and payment, such part of the amount of the bond as shall be required to complete the work shall be paid to Licensor as liquidated and agreed damages for the non-performance of the Licensee’s obligation under this Agreement, it being agreed that the amount of Licensor’s damages is extremely difficult to ascertain and determine.

4. That the surety will defend and indemnify Licensor against all loss, costs, damage, expense, claims, and liabilities arising out of or connected with the demolition and construction.

In lieu of a surety bond, Licensee may provide surety bonds supplied by Licensee’s general contractor or contractors, provided such bonds contain the same conditions, are issued jointly to Licensee and Licensor, and are in an amount equal to the total estimated demolition costs and construction cost of the improvements.

Should Licensee act as owner/builder then all subcontractors shall provide demolition and/or construction surety bonds on the same conditions as above stated for surety bonds to be provided by Licensee’s general contractor.

All surety bonds must be issued by a responsible surety company qualified to do business in the State of California, reasonably acceptable to the Licensor’s Engineer, and shall remain in effect until the Antenna Facilities have been removed in accordance with this Agreement.

Upon completion of the improvements and any approved modification thereto, Licensor shall execute and deliver to Licensee a Certificate of Completion which shall recite that Licensor has inspected and approved all of the improvements and that there exists no default in this Agreement with respect to the improvements as of the date of the Certificate, if such is the fact.

In the event a lien is imposed upon the Premises as a result of such demolition, construction, repair, alteration, or installation, Licensee shall procure and record a surety bond, naming Licensor as obligee, which frees the Premises from the claim of the lien and from any action brought to foreclose the lien.

CITY OF GLENDORA
116 East Foothill Boulevard, Glendora, California 91741 California Environmental Quality Act

NOTICE OF EXEMPTION
Project Title: PLN19-0042 – Conditional Use Permit request for a new wireless facility.

Project Location: The proposed wireless telecommunications facility would be placed within a City-owned land parcel that is part of Glendora’s South Hills Park. The facility’s specific placement would be located at the northeastern portion of the park (west of Elwood Avenue, south of the flood control channel, north of the “South Hills” and north of the Big Dalton Wash Trail). Further the facility placement has it behind a secured fenced off area not open to the public for general park use being that it is located between the flood control channel and at the base of the South Hills slope, and generally used for a variety of maintenance type uses. Due to the large size of the South Hills Park and its multiple street access points (main entrance 701 E.

Mauna Loa Ave.), the actual site location within the park for the proposed facility was assigned an address (701 S. Elwood Avenue) based on its access and proximity to Elwood Avenue.

Project Sponsor: Smart Link LLC (for AT&T)
Mailing Address: 8219 Calle Nueva, San Diego, CA 92126
General Plan Land Use Designation: Conservation Open Space Zoning Designation: Open Space Natural (OSN)
Project Description: The project is for a conditional use permit to allow the construction and use of an unmanned telecommunications facility on City owned land. The applicant is proposing to construct an unmanned wireless facility that would include:
• Antenna Tower - A 60-foot-tall ground-mounted tower is proposed and designed to be concealed as a faux water tower that includes an upper tank (with faux wood textured material) and lower metal steal support framing. The upper tank portion would be cylindrical in shape, 22 feet tall, and 24 feet in diameter. Wireless telecommunications equipment will be located inside the tower’s portion of the “tank” and will include: nine (9) panel antennas, arranged in three (3) sectors of four (3) antennas each, surge suppressor’s and remote radio units (RRUs). Additional space area inside that lower portion of the “tank” has been designed to accommodate co-location antennas for different wireless telecommunication carrier (note that any such co-location installation requests are not a part of this proposal and would be a separate future review). • Equipment Enclosure - All the facility’s ground equipment will be partially screened within an enclosure that will be built to enclose the base of the tower and which will serve as the land area for the future City license agreement. The enclosure will be 34 foot by 24 foot in area (816 square feet) and incorporate a 6-foot stone wall along the south side and 6 foot high wrought iron fence with steel mesh along the north, east and Item #9. Page 67
Meeting Date: 2/22/2022 / Packet Page #: 111

west sides. Within the enclosure will be various equipment cabinets (for AC, telecom, ATC, fiber, power), one (1) GPS antenna (mounted to a cabinet), necessary power/telco connection and one (1) 30kw generic diesel generator with a 190-gallon fuel tank (for emergency backup use in operation only during power outages or for testing and maintenance purposes). All utilities from the equipment enclosure to the facility will be concealed with the tower design and or placed underground. Other utility run connections from facility to the public street will also be placed underground. • Landscape - To help partially screen the lower portions of the facility, landscaping will be planted immediately surrounding the site. The new plantings will include approximately 5 trees and approximately 31 shrubs all of which have selected as they are California natives that will complement existing mature vegetation within the surrounding area.
• Entry Adjustments - To accommodate access for the proposal (construction and regular maintenance of facility) minor adjustments to existing infrastructure will be needed and which include: Removal and replacement of existing chain-link fence/gates, low stone wall, and the Big Dalton Wash walking trail marker, all of which are located near the project site access entry (approximately 60 feet from Elwood street frontage). The replacements will be installed approximately 30 feet west (further back into site) and construction details/plans for such shall be reviewed and approved by City and Los Angeles County Flood Control prior to installation. Finally, a 12-foot-wide vehicle access area with decomposed granite surface adjacent to the existing asphalt entry at Elwood Avenue will also be added.

Surrounding Land Uses and Setting: The property and immediate areas around the facility’s location are mostly open space (park or flood control) with some rural estate residential homes located a distance away.

The Community Development Director recommends the following exempt status / findings:

Ministerial (Sec. 15073)
Declared Emergency (Sec. 15071(a))
Emergency Project (Sec. 15071(b) and (c))
Categorical Exemption
Type: New Construction or Conversion of Small Structures Sections: 15303 [New Construction or Conversion of Small Structures] Statutory Exemption. Code Number:

Reasons why project is exempt: The proposed telecommunication project is exempt from environmental review pursuant to Section 15303 [New Construction or Conversion of Small Structures]. Section 15303 exempts the construction and location of a limited number of new small facilities or structures.

The project consists of the construction and use of a new un-manned telecommunications facility that will be constructed to appear as a faux water tower, with grading on slopes of less than 10 percent and minimal trenching/ground disturbance where the surface is restored. The project Item #9. Page 68

does not require the removal of any healthy, mature trees that are protected or scenic. As a result, the project is exempt from CEQA.

There is no substantial evidence that proposed project involves unusual circumstances, including future activities, resulting in or which might reasonably result in significant impacts which threaten the environment.

STAFF REPORT
TO: MAYOR AND COUNCIL MEMBERS DATE: FEBRUARY 22, 2022
FROM: COMMUNITY SERVICES DISTRICT(S): CITYWIDE
SUBJECT: CONSIDER ENTERING INTO AN AGREEMENT FOR PROFESSIONAL SERVICES WITH UNION STATION HOMELESS SERVICES.

RECOMMENDATION
That the City Council:

1. Authorize the City Manager to negotiate and execute the Agreement for Professional Services with Union Station Homeless Services

EXECUTIVE SUMMARY
The City of Glendora is requesting to enter into an agreement with Union Station Homeless Services. This will provide the ongoing outreach that is necessary for our homeless population. Initially, Union Station was being funded through the 3-cities and the 5 cities grants with Measure H funds. However, both grants have ended on December 31, 2021. At this time, it is unsure what SGV-COG will do regarding the gap in services. If approved, the City of Glendora will have a full-time homeless navigator to provide the city with necessary resources.

LEGISLATIVE HISTORY / PREVIOUS ACTIONS
No Legislative History or previous actions to this item.

DISCUSSION
The City of Glendora has diligently collaborated with Union Station Homeless Services since the start of the 3-cities and 5-cities grant. However, both grants ended on December 31, 2021. During that time, the City of Glendora and Union Station Homeless Services worked together to establish a relationship with those homeless individuals that are mostly impacted in our community. The homeless navigator also has had a working relationship with the Glendora Police Department. They have provided outreach one time a week. The homeless navigator along with staff conduct direct street-level outreach to try and connect the homeless to services, distribute hygiene kits with hand sanitizer, clean socks, meals, and even transportation when necessary. The City of Glendora, Glendora PD and Union Station Homeless Services also collaborate with Los Angeles County Department of Mental Health for additional support and guidance. This is the reason for using Union Station as a sole source provider. At this time, we have a great working relationship that can potentially be lost if this agreement is not approved.

FISCAL IMPACT
This contract would not exceed $100,000 for one year. The funds would come out of the AARPA funds allocated for homelessness.

ENVIRONMENTAL DETERMINATION
There is no environmental impact associated with the recommendation in this report.

This Agreement shall be interpreted, construed and governed both as to validity and to performance of the parties in accordance with the laws of the State of California. Legal actions concerning any dispute, claim or matter arising out of or in relation to this Agreement shall be instituted in the Superior Court of the County of Los Angeles, State of California, or any other appropriate court in such county, and Consultant covenants and agrees to submit to the personal jurisdiction of such court in the event of such action. In the event of litigation in a U.S. District Court, venue shall lie exclusively in the Central District of California, in the County of Los Angeles, State of California.

7.2 Disputes; Default.

In the event that Consultant is in default under the terms of this Agreement, the City shall not have any obligation or duty to continue compensating Consultant for any work performed after the date of default. Instead, the City may give notice to Consultant of the default and the reasons for the default. The notice shall include the timeframe in which Consultant may cure the default. This timeframe is presumptively thirty (30) days, but may be extended, though not reduced, if circumstances warrant. During the period of time that Consultant is in default, the City shall hold all invoices and shall, when the default is cured, proceed with payment on the invoices. In the alternative, the City may, in its sole discretion, elect to pay some or all of the outstanding invoices during the period of default. If Consultant does not cure the default, the City may take necessary steps to terminate this Agreement under this Article. Any failure on the part of the City to give notice of the Consultant’s default shall not be deemed to result in a waiver of the City’s legal rights or any rights arising out of any provision of this Agreement.

7.3 Retention of Funds.

Consultant hereby authorizes City to deduct from any amount payable to Consultant (whether or not arising out of this Agreement) (i) any amounts the payment of which may be in dispute hereunder or which are necessary to compensate City for any losses, costs, liabilities, or damages suffered by City, and (ii) all amounts for which City may be liable to third parties, by reason of Consultant’s acts or omissions in performing or failing to perform Consultant’s obligation under this Agreement. In the event that any claim is made by a third party, the amount or validity of which is disputed by Consultant, or any indebtedness shall exist which shall appear to be the basis for a claim of lien, City may withhold from any payment due, without liability for interest because of such withholding, an amount sufficient to cover such claim. The failure of City to exercise such right to deduct or to withhold shall not, however, affect the obligations of the Consultant to insure, indemnify, and protect City as elsewhere provided herein.

7.4 Waiver.

Waiver by any party to this Agreement of any term, condition, or covenant of this Agreement shall not constitute a waiver of any other term, condition, or covenant. Waiver by any party of any breach of the provisions of this Agreement shall not constitute a waiver of any other provision or a waiver of any subsequent breach or violation of any provision of this Agreement.

Acceptance by City of any work or services by Consultant shall not constitute a waiver of any of the provisions of this Agreement. No delay or omission in the exercise of any right or remedy by a non-defaulting party on any default shall impair such right or remedy or be construed as a Item #11. Page 18
Meeting Date: 2/22/2022 / Packet Page #: 139
01240.0001/535308.1 B-16
waiver. Any waiver by either party of any default must be in writing and shall not be a waiver of any other default concerning the same or any other provision of this Agreement.

7.5 Rights and Remedies are Cumulative.

Except with respect to rights and remedies expressly declared to be exclusive in this Agreement, the rights and remedies of the parties are cumulative and the exercise by either party of one or more of such rights or remedies shall not preclude the exercise by it, at the same or different times, of any other rights or remedies for the same default or any other default by the other party.

7.6 Legal Action.

In addition to any other rights or remedies, either party may take legal action, in law or in equity, to cure, correct or remedy any default, to recover damages for any default, to compel specific performance of this Agreement, to obtain declaratory or injunctive relief, or to obtain any other remedy consistent with the purposes of this Agreement. Notwithstanding any contrary provision herein, Consultant shall file a statutory claim pursuant to Government Code Sections 905 et seq. and 910 et seq., in order to pursue a legal action under this Agreement.

7.7 Termination Prior to Expiration of Term.

This Section shall govern any termination of this Contract except as specifically provided in the following Section for termination for cause. The City reserves the right to terminate this Contract at any time, with or without cause, upon thirty (30) days’ written notice to Consultant, except that where termination is due to the fault of the Consultant, the period of notice may be such shorter time as may be determined by the Contract Officer. In addition, the Consultant reserves the right to terminate this Contract at any time, with or without cause, upon sixty (60) days’ written notice to City, except that where termination is due to the fault of the City, the period of notice may be such shorter time as the Consultant may determine. Upon receipt of any notice of termination, Consultant shall immediately cease all services hereunder except such as may be specifically approved by the Contract Officer. Except where the Consultant has initiated termination, the Consultant shall be entitled to compensation for all services rendered prior to the effective date of the notice of termination and for any services authorized by the Contract Officer thereafter in accordance with the Schedule of Compensation or such as may be approved by the Contract Officer, except as provided in Section 7.3. In the event the Consultant has initiated termination, the Consultant shall be entitled to compensation only for the reasonable value of the work product actually produced hereunder. In the event of termination without cause pursuant to this Section, the terminating party need not provide the non-terminating party with the opportunity to cure pursuant to Section 7.2.

7.8 Termination for Default of Consultant.

If termination is due to the failure of the Consultant to fulfill its obligations under this Agreement, City may, after compliance with the provisions of Section 7.2, take over the work and prosecute the same to completion by contract or otherwise, and the Consultant shall be liable to the extent that the total cost for completion of the services required hereunder exceeds the compensation herein stipulated (provided that the City shall use reasonable efforts to mitigate Item #11. Page 19
Meeting Date: 2/22/2022 / Packet Page #: 140
01240.0001/535308.1 B-17
such damages), and City may withhold any payments to the Consultant for the purpose of set-off or partial payment of the amounts owed the City as previously stated.

7.9 Attorneys’ Fees.

If either party to this Agreement is required to initiate or defend or made a party to any action or proceeding in any way connected with this Agreement, the prevailing party in such action or proceeding, in addition to any other relief which may be granted, whether legal or equitable, shall be entitled to reasonable attorney’s fees. Attorney’s fees shall include attorney’s fees on any appeal, and in addition a party entitled to attorney’s fees shall be entitled to all other reasonable costs for investigating such action, taking depositions and discovery and all other necessary costs the court allows which are incurred in such litigation. All such fees shall be deemed to have accrued on commencement of such action and shall be enforceable whether or not such action is prosecuted to judgment.

STAFF REPORT
TO: MAYOR AND COUNCIL MEMBERS DATE: FEBRUARY 22, 2022
FROM: CITY MANAGER DISTRICT(S): CITYWIDE
SUBJECT: CONSIDERATION OF SENATE BILL 843 (GLAZER, 2022) - RENTER'S TAX CREDIT (REQUESTED BY BOYER AND DAVIS)

RECOMMENDATION
That the City Council:

1. Consider Senate Bill 843 (Glazer, 2022); and

2. Provide City staff with direction accordingly.

EXECUTIVE SUMMARY
Mayor Davis and Mayor Pro Tempore Boyer are requesting the City Council consider supporting Senate Bill 843 (Glazer, 2022) which would increase the tax credit for qualified renters up to $1,000 for taxable years beginning on or after January 2, 2022, and before January 1, 2027.

DISCUSSION
Personal Income Tax Law currently authorizes various tax credits, including for qualified renters in the amount of $120 for spouses filing joint returns, heads of household, and surviving spouses if their adjusted gross income is $50,000 (as adjusted annually) or less, and in the amount of $60 for other individuals if adjusted gross income is $25,000 (as adjusted annually), or less. The Franchise Tax Board adjusts the gross income amounts on an annual basis. For 2020, the adjusted gross income limits were $87,066 and $43,533, respectively. The renter’s tax credit was first established in 1972.

If approved, Senate Bill 843 would increase the tax credit for qualified renters up to $1,000 for taxable years beginning on or after January 1, 2022 and before January 1, 2027; eligible households would receive $500 for single residents and $1,000 for single parents and couples. The Franchise Tax Board would also be required to annually adjust the tax credit based on inflation. As noted in the legislation, the specific goals, purposes and objectives for this bill are to:
 Compensate low- and middle-income renters for the increasing rates of rent throughout the State of California;
 Restructure the credit to reflect the disproportionate burden of high rents on single-parent families; and
 Stimulate consumer spending and economic growth by providing more disposable income to reinvest in the economy.

California last increased the renter’s tax credit in 1979, and the proposed increase would account for inflation since that time.

Senate Bill 843 was introduced in the State Senate in January 2022 by Senator Steve Glazer. The bill has been referred to the Rules Committee but has not yet been assigned to any other legislative committee for its review and consideration. The Senate has taken action to waive the required 30-day waiting period for legislation to be heard or acted upon such that if approved, this legislation would take Item #12. Page 1

effect immediately.

FISCAL IMPACT
There is no fiscal impact associated with this report other than the staff time required to prepare it.

ENVIRONMENTAL DETERMINATION
There is no environmental impact associated with this report.

An act to amend Section 17053.5 of the Revenue and Taxation Code, relating to taxation, to take effect immediately, tax levy. legislative counsel’s digest
SB 843, as introduced, Glazer. Taxation: renters’ credit.

The Personal Income Tax Law authorizes various credits against the taxes imposed by that law, including a credit for qualified renters in the amount of $120 for spouses filing joint returns, heads of household, and surviving spouses if adjusted gross income is $50,000, as adjusted, or less, and in the amount of $60 for other individuals if adjusted gross income is $25,000, as adjusted, or less. Existing law requires the Franchise Tax Board to annually adjust for inflation these adjusted gross income amounts. For 2020, the adjusted gross income limit is $87,066 and $43,533, respectively. Existing law requires any bill authorizing a new tax credit to contain, among other things, specific goals, purposes, and objectives that the tax credit will achieve, detailed performance indicators, and data collection requirements.

99 Item #12. Page 3
Meeting Date: 2/22/2022 / Packet Page #: 152
Existing law establishes the continuously appropriated Tax Relief and Refund Account in the General Fund and provides that payments required to be made to taxpayers or other persons from the Personal Income Tax Fund are to be paid from that account.

This bill, for taxable years beginning on or after January 1, 2022, and before January 1, 2027, and only when specified in a bill relating to the Budget Act, would increase the credit amount for a qualified renter to $1,000, as provided. In the event the increased credit amount is not specified in a bill relating to the Budget Act, the existing credit amounts of $120 and $60, as described above, respectively, would be the credit amounts for that taxable year. The bill would require the Franchise Tax Board to annually recompute for inflation the credit amount for taxable years on or after January 1, 2023, and before January 1, 2027, except as provided. The bill would provide findings and declarations relating to the goals, purposes, and objectives of this credit.

The bill, for credits allowable for taxable years beginning on or after January 1, 2022, and before January 1, 2027, would provide that the credit amount in excess of the qualified renter’s liability would be refundable and paid from the Tax Relief and Refund Account to the qualified renter upon appropriation by the Legislature.

This bill would take effect immediately as a tax levy.

STAFF REPORT
TO: MAYOR AND COUNCIL MEMBERS DATE: FEBRUARY 22, 2022
FROM: ADMINISTRATIVE SERVICES – FINANCE DISTRICT(S): CITYWIDE SUBJECT: CONSIDER WAIVING BUSINESS LICENSE TAXES TO MAKE HOUSING MORE

AFFORDABLE (REQUESTED BY BOYER AND ALLAWOS)

RECOMMENDATION
That the City Council:

1. Consider waiving Business License Taxes for multiple-family residential property owners to make housing more affordable; and

2. Provide City staff with direction accordingly.

EXECUTIVE SUMMARY
Mayor Pro Tempore Boyer and Councilmember Allawos are requesting the City Council consider waiving the Business License Tax for multiple-family residential property owners to make housing more affordable in the City.

LEGISLATIVE HISTORY
On May 25, 2021, the City Council directed staff to look at creative ways to reduce the cost of housing locally, without increasing the cost of housing to anyone else, following a motion by Mayor Pro Tempore Boyer and a second by Councilmember Allawos. The motion stemmed from the City Council’s study session on inclusionary housing and the resulting discussion which included consideration for who bares the cost of affordable housing, local control of zoning and design elements, the factors used to establish the value of homes (income, replacement cost, and comparable sales cost), the pros and cons of inclusionary housing programs, the lack of affordable housing, the need for a multi-pronged approach to housing, a desire to find creative incentives to decrease rent and/or housing costs, the cost of development, local government tax impacts on renters, the use of density bonuses to add more housing in smaller spaces, the need to address the mandates that the state legislature has imposed on housing development, and incentives to keep rent rates stable by waiving business license fees or waiving development fees as an incentive to keep rents and housing costs low.

BACKGROUND
In December 2021, Mayor Pro Tempore Boyer and Councilmember Allawos met with City staff to discuss ways in which the City can help make housing more affordable in Glendora. In the context of the various housing-related mandates imposed by the State, and recognizing the increasing cost of housing, the discussion focused on actions the City can take in the near- and mid-term to help address affordability for renters and homeowners. The discussion was wide ranging and included consideration for evaluating the fees associated with residential development, streamlining internal processes, and waiving local fees, among other concepts. To provide some immediate relief and start a much broader conversation on this topic, City staff was asked to evaluate the possibility of waiving Business License Taxes for multiple-family residential property owners to help offset or mitigate future rent increases.

Item #13. Page 1
Meeting Date: 2/22/2022 / Packet Page #: 159
Staff Report Page 2 of 3

DISCUSSION
As outlined in Title 5 (Business Licenses and Regulations) of the Glendora Municipal Code, every business operating in the City is required to obtain a business license, and to renew it annually.

Specifically, multiple-family residential properties are governed by Section 5.08.130 (Apartment Houses, Mobile Home Parks, Trailer Parks and Industrial and Commercial Rentals):

Apartment houses, duplexes, mobile home parks, trailer parks and industrial and commercial rentals shall pay the following license taxes: four or more units, spaces or rooms shall pay thirty-five dollars plus two dollars and fifty cents for each unit, space or room over four.

According to business license data, there are currently 124 multiple-family residential property (business) owners in the City representing 2,491 total units. This figure includes apartments, mobile home parks, and trailer parks. Each business owner pays an annual business license tax between $35 to $545 depending on the number of units on the property. The table below provides examples of the business license fees dependent on the number of units on the property.
*Per Unit Fee is the total number of units, multiplied by $2.50; this charge is only applied when the total number of units is five or more.

NEXT STEPS
The topic of affordability and housing in California and Glendora is both complex and nuanced. Pending discussion by the City Council on this item, staff will return to the City Council for future conversations on the topic.

FISCAL IMPACT
Providing a waiver to all 124 multi-family property owners would reduce annual business license revenue by $9,370 or 2% of total annual business license revenues. If the waiver is approved, the City will need to identify an alternative funding source to offset these funds.

ENVIRONMENTAL DETERMINATION
There is no environmental impact associated with this report.

STAFF REPORT
TO: MAYOR AND COUNCIL MEMBERS DATE: FEBRUARY 22, 2022
FROM: CITY MANAGER DISTRICT(S): CITYWIDE
SUBJECT: QUARTERLY STRATEGIC PLAN UPDATE (ALL STRATEGIC PLAN ITEMS)

RECOMMENDATION
That the City Council:

1. Receive the February 2022 Quarterly Update of the 2020-2023 Three-Year Strategic Plan and provide input on future strategic planning sessions and updates.

EXECUTIVE SUMMARY
Over the past several years, the City of Glendora has held more than 20 strategic planning sessions to set goals, objectives, and tasks. These sessions would typically occur every six months and had been utilized to periodically update the City’s Vision/Mission Statements and Core Values. In March 2020, the COVID19 pandemic caused many organizations around the world to revisit their operations, including the City of Glendora. In July 2020, the City Council, City Staff, and members of the City’s boards/commissions met to discuss future operations moving forward. As a result of that meeting and subsequent reviews where more than 200 objectives/tasks were discussed, the City Council approved a revamped, three-year strategic plan in October 2020 that focuses on recovery from COVID-19 and key capital, staffing, homelessness and financial objects/tasks over the next three years. The 2020-2023 Strategic Plan (Strategic Plan) has been subsequently incorporated into the FY 2021-2023 Two-Year Budget adopted in June 2021 and throughout the work plans of City staff. This agenda item provides a status update on the Strategic Plan and requests the City Council discuss possible changes to the strategic planning process.

LEGISLATIVE HISTORY / PREVIOUS ACTIONS
In July 2020, the City Council met to discuss a new Strategic Plan and review its Mission Statement, Vision Statement, and Core Values. In October 2020, the City Council adopted the Strategic Plan for Fiscal Years 2020-21 through FY 2022-23 (2020-2023 Three Year Strategic Plan). Since adoption, periodic updates of the Strategic Plan were provided to the City Council in March 2021, June 2021 and November 2021.

DISCUSSION
The July 2020 strategic planning session included a robust conversation on the current state of affairs in the City related to COVID-19 and discussion on more than 200 potential action items. Following direction from that meeting, staff prepared a comprehensive Strategic Plan that was reviewed in August 2020 approved in October 2020. Overall, the Strategic Plan is ambitious, as many of the items have significant impacts from a staff perspective (e.g. Housing Element/General Plan, software implementations), public engagement perspective (e.g. water rates, use of City property, future development), and employee engagement perspective (e.g. retention measures and personnel policies).

The adoption of the Strategic Plan, also marked a significant change from past strategic planning sessions, which had the tendency to change goals, objectives, and tasks every six months. The current Strategic Plan is for three years, which has allowed for two very important linkages – City finances and staffing assignments. Specifically, the goals, objectives, and tasks associated with the Strategic Plan were Item #14. Page 1
Meeting Date: 2/22/2022 / Packet Page #: 163
Staff Report Page 2 of 3
incorporated in the Adopted FY 2021-2023 Two-Year Budget and to employees through staff workplans.

Additionally, the multi-year plan allowed for clarity on timelines for multi-year projects (e.g. Gold Line) and linkages between each strategic plan objectives/tasks, should they exist. Finally, the quarterly reporting to the City Council is more robust, including both detailed and summary information on progress of each object/task under each of the six goals.

Goals
In late 2019, the City Council adopted five strategic plan goals, which were utilized as the starting point when drafting the post COVID-19 Strategic Plan, which was based on the July 2020 strategic planning session:

1. Increase financial stability and sustainability

2. Enhance and modernize the organization

3. Improve and maintain the City’s infrastructure and facilities

4. Implement strategic economic development

5. Enhance employee development and retention
Additionally, the City Council added a sixth goal during the July 2020 strategic planning session related to the significant efforts surrounding homelessness activities (e.g. community survey, hotel/motel housing, sub-regional housing efforts, etc.):

6. Implement Strategic Homelessness Solutions
Based on these six goals, the City Council adopted a Strategic Plan that outlined 57 objectives/tasks to be completed over three years, 2020-2023. Since that time five additional objective/goals were approved by the City Council to address City and community needs. The Strategic Plan Update (Attachment A), provides the status each task/object from inception of the plan. New for the February 2022 Strategic Plan Quarterly Update, for each object/task, is a summary page that provides a high-level overview of progress to date and how that compares to progress from the prior quarterly update.

Of the 62 objectives/tasks listed on the summary page (Attachment A):
 15 are completed;
 42 made progress over the last three months; and
 5 have no progress over the last three months
Other Strategic Planning Actions
No changes were proposed to the Mission Statement, Vision Statement or Core Values during the July 2020 strategic planning session:
 Mission Statement: The City of Glendora’s mission is to provide its citizens and business community effective municipal services while maintaining our historical sense of community values.
 Vision Statement: Glendora will be an inclusive, charming, and vibrant community.  Core Values: Fiscal Responsibility, Honesty and Integrity, Exemplary Customer Service, Open and Accessible Government, Accountability, Community Involvement, and A Friendly Environment Future Considerations
Like with any plan, unanticipated future events or community needs (e.g. short-term rentals), and newly identified funding opportunities (e.g. People Movement) may require significant time and resources and might require changes/amendments to the Strategic Plan. Currently, the City does not have an Administrative Policy that outlines the strategic planning process or how items are added or removed.

The current practice is for staff to work with the City Council to identify these items as they arise and amend the Strategic Plan and staff’s work priorities as needed.

As the strategic planning process continues to evolve to ensure the City is meeting the needs of the community, the City Council may want to consider changes to the current practice, including, but not limited to:
 Formal process for adding/removing items
Item #14. Page 2
Meeting Date: 2/22/2022 / Packet Page #: 164
Staff Report Page 3 of 3
 Form process to re-evaluate goals/objectives
 Significant individual Councilmember requests outside of the Strategic Plan  Frequency of goal/objective review
 Frequency of Mission Statement, Vision Statement, and Core Values review

FISCAL IMPACT
There is no fiscal impacts associated with the February 2022 Quarterly Update of the Strategic Plan. As noted in the update, there are unique fiscal impacts associated with each objective/task. More specifically, the Strategic Plan has been incorporated into the FY 2021-2023 Two-Year Budget and any changes in funding will come before the City Council for approval.

STAFF REPORT
TO: MAYOR AND COUNCIL MEMBERS DATE: FEBRUARY 22, 2022
FROM: PUBLIC WORKS DISTRICTS: CITYWIDE
SUBJECT: UPDATE ON LANDSCAPE MAINTENANCE DISTRICT NO.1 POTENTIAL BALLOT PROCEEDING (STRATEGIC PLAN ITEM 7-IFSS)

RECOMMENDATION
That the City Council:

1. Provide direction on which zones to conduct a Proposition 218 assessment district ballot proceeding:
and

2. Authorize the Administrative Services Director to make the necessary budget appropriations.

EXECUTIVE SUMMARY
Each fiscal year, the City establishes Landscape Maintenance District No. 1 (District) assessments based on an estimate of the cost to maintain, operate and service the improvements needed within the various zones of the District. The City provides landscaping services such as grounds maintenance, tree service, irrigation repairs, plant/shrub maintenance and replacement, as well as litter removal.

The District is not a separate entity of the City. It is a financing vehicle utilized when the development of a neighborhood in the community is identified to specifically benefit from certain improvements. Due to this special benefit, property owners within the District are assessed the costs of ongoing maintenance in these common areas. Following an unsuccessful ballot proceeding within the District in Fiscal Year (FY) 2018/19, four zones were removed from the District. Properties within these zones ceased to have an assessment levied, and assessment-funded services ceased.

In advance of considering the placement of a measure on the ballot to have the zones rejoin the District, surveys were mailed to residents in an attempt to evaluate likely interest. Based on the results of this survey, staff is requesting direction on which zones to conduct a Proposition 218 assessment district ballot proceeding and authorize the Administrative Services Director to make the necessary budget appropriations to implement the City Council’s direction.

LEGISLATIVE HISTORY / PREVIOUS ACTIONS
The City of Glendora annually levies and collects special assessments for the City’s maintenance assessment district designated as Landscape Maintenance District No. 1 (District). The purpose of this District is to provide thorough annual assessments, and funding for the ongoing operations, maintenance and servicing of landscape improvements and services in various zones throughout the City. These improvements provide special benefits to the levied property owners in the respective zones, and every zone is assessed at a different rate depending on the level of service it receives.

In FY 2018/19, the District was comprised of 11 distinct zones. The majority of these zones were not funded sufficiently for ongoing operations, maintenance and servicing of landscape improvements. In order to fully fund these services, it was necessary to increase assessment revenues, which under Proposition 218, requires the support of affected property owners within each zone through a ballot proceeding conducted under the provisions of the State of California Constitution, Article XIII D.

Item #15. Page 1
Meeting Date: 2/22/2022 / Packet Page #: 197
Ballot measure proceedings for a rate increase were conducted, and majority protests were received for the four zones below.

Zone # Location / Name
2 TR. 30556 / W. Sierra Madre
3 TR. 32314 / Banna/Arrow Hwy
11 TR. 43558 / Kregmont
15 TR. 45271 / Greenfield Court
As a result of the majority protest, assessment levies in these four zones ceased, and services formerly provided were discontinued due to insufficient funding.

Since this action, there have been inquiries about conducting a new ballot proceeding to reincorporate these four zones into the District. At the December 14, 2021, City Council meeting, staff presented initial information regarding a potential ballot proceeding. The City Council subsequently directed staff to conduct additional historical research on these zones and return with this information.

DISCUSSION
Survey Results
In advance of considering the placement of a measure on the ballot to have the zones rejoin the District, staff contracted Willdan Financial Services to conduct a by mail survey of the property owners in the four zones to gauge interest in reincorporating these areas to the District. The results of these surveys are noted in the tables below by zone.

The City Council requested additional information on the inception of the zones, ownership of the parcels formerly maintained, estimated costs to renovate these areas, and estimated costs to fund ongoing maintenance. All areas are City owned parcels except Zone 2 - TR. 30556 / W. Sierra Madre, which is a strip along the back of the private parcels where they abut the ROW.

The estimates provided include both direct and administrative costs. The cost estimates for renovation were generated assuming the improvements would be similar to what existed before the zones were removed from the District, with the exception of Zone 11 TR. 43558 / Kregmont, where estimates are provided for both re-landscaping, as well as replacing with hardscape cobbles similar to other medians on the street.

Estimates for total zone costs if restored are based on adjusting the costs on the most recent Engineer’s Report data for these areas by the most recent available Consumer Price Index (CPI) inflation data, rounded up to the nearest $100 to avoid an illusion of greater precision than currently exists. Please note that this estimate does not include the funding required to complete the initial renovation (a decision would need to be made on whether the City would absorb these costs or seek to recover these costs through the assessment, and if so, under what sort of structure/timeline).

Any new assessment would also need to include future annual Consumer Price Index (CPI) increases to offset inflation costs and remain sustainable.

Estimated levy rates per Equivalent Benefit Unit (EBU) calculation is comprised of the estimated total zone cost divided by the total number of EBUs (properties) formerly in each zone.

General Balloting Process Information
Should the City Council provide direction to move forward, staff would engage Willdan Financial Services to conduct the Proposition 218 ballot proceeding; Willdan Financial Services is currently contracted to conduct the annual levy process for the zones currently in the District.

To increase an assessment under Proposition 218, the agency must:
 Give written notice to all affected property owners along with a ballot no less than 45 days in advance of a public hearing.
 Hold a public hearing and an assessment ballot vote; and  Declare results of balloting at the hearing or at an extended public hearing depending on the number of ballots returned.

As a majority protest ballot, only those ballots received are tabulated and the ballots are weighted by assessment per Zone. Accordingly, the weighted average of the “yes” ballots must surpass the “no” ballots in order for the measure to pass. “Weighted by assessment” means that the value of each vote is weighted based on the property owners’ maximum assessment. For example, a vote from a parcel owner with a maximum levy of $40.00 would be weighted accordingly compared to one from a property owner with a maximum assessment of $20.00 in the same Zone. A majority protest means that if the vote is 50/50, the ballot would pass since there was no majority protest. If a majority vote is not received, the increase cannot legally be applied.

As proposed, this process would start in March 2021 (tentative) and end in August 2021 (tentative). Any zones where a majority of property owners voted affirmatively would then be included in the subsequent Engineer’s Report and levy.

FISCAL IMPACT
Anticipated costs associated with a Proposition 218 ballot proceeding would need to be appropriated from the 001 General Fund reserves and are based upon Willdan’s balloting proposal.

Item Cost
Engineering services $8,500
Ballot & notice mailings $600
Two public outreach meetings $4,500
Total $13,600

STAFF REPORT
TO: MAYOR AND COUNCIL MEMBERS DATE: FEBRUARY 22, 2022
FROM: CITY MANAGER DISTRICT(S): CITYWIDE
SUBJECT: CONSIDERATION OF A RESOLUTION OPPOSITING THE TAXPAYER PROTECTION AND GOVERNMENT ACCOUNTABILITY ACT (AG# 21-0042A1) INITIATIVE

RECOMMENDATION
That the City Council:

1. Consider a Resolution opposing the Taxpayer Protection and Government Accountability Act or AG# 21-0042A1; and

2. Provide City staff with direction accordingly.

EXECUTIVE SUMMARY
The League of California Cities (Cal Cities) is requesting that cities adopt a resolution in opposition to the Taxpayer Protection and Government Accountability Act or AG# 21-0042A1 to demonstrate how harmful this measure would be to the Glendora community and the people of California.

LEGISLATIVE HISTORY / PREVIOUS ACTIONS
In 2018, the “Tax Fairness, Transparency and Accountability Act” or AG# 17-0050 Amendment #1, was being circulated to qualify for the November 2018 ballot. This initiative would have drastically limited local revenue authority. Through the successful work and advocacy of Cal Cities and its coalition partners, the measure’s proponents withdrew the initiative from the ballot in June 2018.

On January 4, 2022, the California Business Roundtable filed the Taxpayer Protection and Government Accountability Act or AG# 21-0042A1. This measure is far more detrimental to cities than the measure filed in 2018, because it could decimate vital local and state services to the benefit of wealthy corporations.

During its December 2-3, 2021 meeting, the Cal Cities Board of Directors voted unanimously to oppose Initiative 21-0026A1. Following the Board’s unanimous decision, a coalition of public safety, labor, local government and infrastructure advocates have joined together to fight against this measure. With the Attorney General release of the Title and Summary, the coalition announced their opposition in a media release that was sent out on February 2, 2022 (Attachment B). The proponents will need to submit nearly one million signatures by April 29, 2022 in order to qualify for the November 2022 ballot, as recommended by the Secretary of State.

DISCUSSION
The California Business Roundtable (CBRT) sponsored AG# 21-0042A1 (Initiative) which was filed in January 2022. If placed on the ballot and passed by voters, the proposed Initiative would create constitutional loopholes, limit voter input, adopt new and stricter rules for raising taxes and fees, and makes it more difficult to hold state and local law violators accountable.

The Initiative as currently written would allow corporations to pay far less than their fair share for the impacts they have on our communities, including local infrastructure, environment, water and air quality, and natural resources which could force local residents to pay more.

Item #16. Page 1
Meeting Date: 2/22/2022 / Packet Page #: 213
Staff Report Page 2 of 2
The Initiative would make it much more difficult to issue fines and levies on corporations that violate laws intended to protect our environment, public health and safety, and our neighborhoods; make it more difficult for local voters to pass measures needed to fund local services and infrastructure and would limit voter input by prohibiting local advisory measures where voters provide direction on how they want their local tax dollars spent; it would also retroactively cancel measures that were passed by local voters. The Initiative would also place billions of local government fee/charge revenues and the associated services at heightened legal peril and could force cuts and drastically impact services and critical investments in infrastructure.

In the wake of this concern, Cal Cities is requesting that cities adopt a resolution to demonstrate how harmful this measure would be to the Glendora community and the people of the State. Attached is a sample resolution (Attachment F) and additional fact sheets and analysis for your information (Attachments C–E). Proponents of the Initiative have until April 29, 2022 to submit enough signatures to the Secretary of State to qualify for the ballot.

Legislative Platform
The City of Glendora has adopted a formal legislative advocacy position through its Legislative Platform.

The Resolution recommended for consideration by Cal Cities, is in line with several principles and initiatives included in the City’s Legislative Platform, including but not limited to, preserving local control, financial sustainability, public safety, and to fund critical infrastructure needs and maintain and enhance the quality-of-life Glendora residents have come to enjoy.

FISCAL IMPACT
The longer-term impact of this Initiative which weakens local control, jeopardizes the City’s ability to provide services and critical infrastructure to residents. Fees such as nuisance abatement charges, franchise fees, document processing fees, and facility use fees would be subject to new standards and the threat of legal action. Some fees and tax changes would require voter approval. For example, if the City were to annex additional land, Measure E would be added to the ballot again in order to approve collection in the new territory. Additionally, even though the state now requires the analysis of new development for vehicle miles traveled (VMT), the City would not be allowed to charge development fees as a condition that regulates VMT.

ENVIRONMENTAL DETERMINATION
There is no environmental impact associated with this report.

Dear Initiative Coordinator:

Pursuant to subdivision (b) of Section 9002 of the Elections Code, enclosed please find Amendment #1 to Initiative No. 21-0042 "The Taxpayer Protection and Government Accountability Act." The amendments are reasonably germane to the theme, purpose or subject of the initiative measure as originally proposed.

I am the proponent of the measure and request that the Attorney General prepare a circulating title and summary of the measure as provided by law, using the amended language.

Thank you for your time and attention processing my request.

Sincerely,

The Taxpayer Protection and Government Accountability Act [Deleted codified text is denoted in strikeout. Added codified text is denoted by italics and underline.] Section 1. Title
This Act shall be known, and may be cited as, the Taxpayer Protection and Government Accountability Act.

Section 2. Findings and Declarations
(a) Californians are overtaxed. We pay the nation's highest state income tax, sales tax, and gasoline tax. According to the U.S. Census Bureau, California's combined state and local tax burden is the highest in the nation. Despite this, and despite two consecutive years of obscene revenue surpluses, state politicians in 2021 alone introduced legislation to raise more than $234 billion in new and higher taxes and fees.
(b) Taxes are only part of the reason for California's rising cost-of-living crisis. Californians pay billions more in hidden "fees" passed through to consumers in the price they pay for products, services, food, fuel, utilities and housing. Since 2010, government revenue from state and local "fees" has more than doubled.
(c) California's high cost of living not only contributes to the state's skyrocketing rates of poverty and homelessness, they are the pushing working families and job-providing businesses out of the state. The most recent Census showed that California's population dropped for the first time in history, costing us a seat in Congress. In the past four years, nearly 300 major corporations relocated to other states, not counting thousands more small businesses that were forced to move, sell or close. (d) California voters have tried repeatedly, at great expense, to assert control over whether and how taxes and fees are raised. We have enacted a series of measures to make taxes more predictable, to limit what passes as a "fee," to require voter approval, and to guarantee transparency and accountability. These measures include Proposition 13 (1978), Proposition 62 (1986), Proposition 218 (1996), and Proposition 26 (2010).
(e) Contrary to the voters' intent, these measures that were designed to control taxes, spending and accountability, have been weakened and hamstrung by the Legislature, government lawyers, and the courts, making it necessary to pass yet another initiative to close loopholes and reverse hostile court decisions.

Section 3. Statement of Purpose
(a) In enacting this measure, the voters reassert their right to a voice and a vote on new and higher taxes by requiring any new or higher tax to be put before voters for approval. Voters also intend that all fees and other charges are passed or rejected by the voters themselves or a governing body elected by voters and not unelected and unaccountable bureaucrats.
(b) Furthermore, the purpose and intent of the voters in enacting this measure is to increase transparency and accountability over higher taxes and charges by requiring any tax measure placed on the ballot1 Item #16. Page 4
Meeting Date: 2/22/2022 / Packet Page #: 216
either at the state or local level-to clearly state the type and rate of any tax, how long it will be in effect, and the use of the revenue generated by the tax.
(c) Furthermore, the purpose and intent of the voters in enacting this measure is to clarify that any new or increased form of state government revenue, by any name or manner of extraction paid directly or indirectly by Californians, shall be authorized only by a vote of the Legislature and signature of the Governor to ensure that the purposes for such charges are broadly supported and transparently debated. (d) Furthermore, the purpose and intent of the voters in enacting this measure is also to ensure that taxpayers have the right and ability to effectively balance new or increased taxes and other charges with the rapidly increasing costs Californians are already paying for housing, food, childcare, gasoline, energy, healthcare, education, and other basic costs of living, and to further protect the existing constitutional limit on property taxes and ensure that the revenue from such taxes remains local, without changing or superseding existing constitutional provisions contained in Section 1{c) of Article XIII A. (e) In enacting this measure, the voters also additionally intend to reverse loopholes in the legislative twothirds vote and voter approval requirements for government revenue increases created by the courts including, but not limited to, Cannabis Coalition v. City of Upland, Chamber of Commerce v. Air Resources Board, Schmeer v. Los Angeles County, Johnson v. County of Mendocino, Citizens Assn. of Sunset Beach v.

Orange County Local Agency Formation Commission, and Wilde v. City of Dunsmuir.

(BJ A specific and legally binding and enforceable limitation on how the revenue from the tax can be spent.

If the revenue from the tax can be spent for unrestricted general revenue purposes. then a statement that the tax revenue can be spent for "unrestricted general revenue purposes" shall be included in a separate, stand-alone section. Any proposed change to the use of the revenue from the tax shall be adopted by a separate act that is passed by not less than two-thirds of all members elected to each of the two houses of the Legislature and submitted to the electorate and approved by a maiority vote. (2) The title and summary and ballot label or question required for a measure pursuant to the Elections Code shall. for each measure providing for the imposition of a tax, including a measure proposed by an elector pursuant to Article II, include:

B. (1) In the event that this initiative measure and another initiative measure or measures relating to state or local requirements for the imposition, adoption, creation, or establishment of taxes, charges, and other revenue measures shall appear on the same statewide election ballot, the other initiative measure or measures shall be deemed to be in conflict with this measure.

(2) In furtherance of this provision, the voters hereby declare that this measure conflicts with the provisions of the "Housing Affordability and Tax Cut Act of 2022" and "The Tax Cut and Housing Affordability Act," both of which would impose a new state property tax (called a "surcharge") on certain real property, and where the revenue derived from the tax is provided to the State, rather than retained in the county in which the property is situated and for the use of the county and cities and districts within the county, in direct violation of the provisions of this initiative. (3) If this initiative measure is approved by the voters, but superseded in whole or in part by any other conflicting initiative measure approved by the voters at the same election, and such conflicting initiative is later held invalid, this measure shall be self-executing and given full force and effect.

C. The provisions of this Act are severable. If any portion, section, subdivision, paragraph, clause, sentence, phrase, word, or application of this Act is for any reason held to be invalid by a decision of any court of competent jurisdiction, that decision shall not affect the validity of the remaining portions of this Act. The People of the State of California hereby declare that they would have adopted this Act and each and every portion, section, subdivision, paragraph, clause, sentence, phrase, word, and application not 8 Item #16. Page 11
Meeting Date: 2/22/2022 / Packet Page #: 223
declared invalid or unconstitutional without regard to whether any portion of this Act or application thereof would be subsequently declared invalid.

D. If this Act is approved by the voters of the State of California and thereafter subjected to a legal challenge alleging a violation of state or federal law, and both the Governor and Attorney General refuse to defend this Act, then the following actions shall be taken:
(1) Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in Chapter 6 of Part 2 of Division 3 ofTitle 2 of the Government Code or any other law, the Attorney General shall appoint independent counsel to faithfully and vigorously defend this Act on behalf of the State of California. (2) Before appointing or thereafter substituting independent counsel, the Attorney General shall exercise due diligence in determining the qualifications of independent counsel and shall obtain written affirmation from independent counsel that independent counsel will faithfully and vigorously defend this Act. The written affirmation shall be made publicly available upon request. (3) A continuous appropriation is hereby made from the General Fund to the Controller, without regard to fiscal years, in an amount necessary to cover the costs of retaining independent counsel to faithfully and vigorously defend this Act on behalf of the State of California. (4) Nothing in this section shall prohibit the proponents of this Act, or a bona fide taxpayers association, from intervening to defend this Act.

Fiscal and Program Effects of
Initiative 21-0042A1 on Local Governments
If Initiative 21-0042A1 is placed on the ballot and passed by voters, it will result in:
 Billions of local government fee and charge revenues placed at heightened legal peril. Related public service reductions across virtually every aspect of city, county, special district, and school services especially for transportation, and public facility use.  Hundreds of millions of dollars of annual revenues from dozens of tax and bond measures approved by voters between January 1, 2022 and November 9, 2022 subject to additional voter approval if not in compliance with the initiative.
 Indeterminable legal and administrative burdens and costs on local government from new and more empowered legal challenges, and bureaucratic cost tracking requirements.  The delay and deterrence of municipal annexations and associated impacts on housing and commercial development.
 Service and infrastructure impacts including in fire and emergency response, law enforcement, public health, drinking water, sewer sanitation, parks, libraries, public schools, affordable housing, homelessness prevention and mental health services.

1. Local Government Taxes and Services Threatened
With regard to taxes, Initiative 21-0042A1:
 Prohibits advisory, non-binding measures as to use of tax proceeds on the same ballot. o Voters may be less informed and more likely to vote against measures.  Eliminates the ability of special tax measures proposed by citizen initiative to be enacted by majority voter approval (Upland).
o Because the case law regarding citizen initiative special taxes approved by majority vote (Upland) is so recent, it is unknown how common these sorts of measures might be in the future. This initiative would prohibit such measures after the effective date of the initiative. Any such measures adopted after January 1, 2022 through November 8, 2022 would be void after November 9, 2023.
 Requires that tax measures include a specific duration of time that the tax will be imposed. This seems to require that all tax increases or extensions contain a sunset (end date). o This would require additional tax measures to extend previously approved taxes at additional cost to taxpayers.
 Requires that a tax or bond measure adopted after January 1, 2022 and before the effective date of the initiative (November 9, 2022) that was not adopted in accordance with the measure be readopted in compliance with the measure or will be void twelve months after the effective date of the initiative (November 9, 2023).
o If past election patterns are an indication, dozens of tax and bond measures approving hundreds of millions of annual revenues may not be in compliance and would be subject to reenactment.

Most will be taxes without a specific end date. Because there is no regularly scheduled election within the 12 months following the effective date of the initiative, measures not in compliance would need to be placed on a special election ballot for approval before November 9, 2023 or the tax will be void after that date. General tax measures would require declaration of emergency and unanimous vote of the governing board.

 Requires voter approval to expand an existing tax to new territory (annexations). This would require additional tax measures and would deter annexations and land development in cities. o If a tax is "extended" to an annexed area without a vote after January 1, 2022, it will be void 12 months later until brought into compliance. Because there is no regularly scheduled election within the 12 months following the effective date of the initiative, such extensions for general taxes would, under current law, each require unanimous vote of the agency board to be placed on a special election ballot or would be void after November 9, 2023.

1.a. Number of Measures and Value of Local Taxes at Risk1 In 2020, voters in California approved 293 local tax and bond measures for cities, counties, special districts and schools (95 in March and 198 in November). The approved measures enacted $3.85 billion in new annual taxes including $1.3 billion for cities, $302 million for counties, $208 million for special districts (fire, wastewater, open space and transit districts), and $2.037 billion for schools (including for school bonds).

Most tax measures go to the ballot during a presidential or gubernatorial primary or general election in an even year. However, some tax measures are decided at other times. During 2019, there were 45 approved tax and bond measures (24 city, 14 special district, 7 school) adopting $154.0 million in new annual taxes ($124.0 million city, $10.5 million special district and $19.2 million school).

Most tax and bond measures comply with the new rules in Initiative 21-0042Amdt#1 except:
 Dozens of taxes would require end dates. This would require additional measures in future years to extend the taxes further. Very few extensions of existing local taxes fail.  Majority vote general tax measures could not be accompanied on the same ballot with an advisory, non-binding measure as to use of tax proceeds.  Special taxes placed on the ballot via citizen initiative would require two-thirds voter approval.

Bond measures have fixed terms. Historically, about 20 percent of other tax measures have included specific durations (i.e. sunsets). Advisory measures as to use of revenues are uncommon. I do not expect the provisions of 21-0042A1 to have any substantial effect on passage rates. However, some 2022 approved measures would likely have to put back on the ballot.

Based on history, a reasonable estimate of the annualized tax revenues estimated to be approved by 1 Source: Compilation and summary of data from County elections offices.

voters in 2022 and placed at risk by this initiative is at least $1.5 billion, including $1.0 billion from cities and $500 million from counties and special districts. 2 1.b. Additional Costs and Public Service Effects of the Tax Provisions In addition to service delays and disruption due to new tax revenues placed at greater legal risk, there will be substantial additional costs for legal defense. The deterrence of taxes for annexations will delay and deter municipal annexations.

2. “Exempt Charges” (fees and charges that are not taxes) and Services Threatened With regard to fees and charges adopted after January 1, 2022, Initiative 21-0042A1:
 Subjects new fees and charges for a product or service to a new "actual cost” test defined as “(i) the minimum amount necessary to reimburse the government for the cost of providing the service to the payor, and (ii) where the amount charged is not used by the government for any purpose other than reimbursing that cost. In addition, subjects these same charges to a new, undefined, “reasonable” standard.
 Subjects fees and charges for entrance to local government property; and rental and sale of local government property to a new, undefined, “reasonable” test.  Subjects a challenged fee or charge to new, higher burdens of proof if legally challenged.  Prohibits a levy, charge or exaction regulating or related to vehicle miles traveled, imposed as a condition of property development or occupancy.

2.a. Value on New Local Government Fees and Charges at Risk3 Virtually every city, county, and special district must regularly (e.g., annually) adopt increases to fee rates and charges and revise rate schedules to accommodate new users and activities. Most of these would be subject to new standards and limitations under threat of legal challenge. Based on the current volume of fees and charges imposed by local agencies and increases in those fees simply to accommodate inflation, the amount of local government fee and charge revenue placed at risk is about $1 billion per year including those adopted since January 1, 2022. Of this $1 billion, about $570 million is for special districts, $450 million is cities, and $260 million is counties.4
Major examples of affected fees and charges are:

1. Nuisance abatement charges - such as for weed, rubbish and general nuisance abatement to fund community safety, code enforcement, and neighborhood cleanup programs.

2. Commercial franchise fees.

3. Emergency response fees - such as in connection with DUI.

4. Advanced Life Support (ALS) transport charges.

5. Document processing and duplication fees.

6. Transit fees, tolls, parking fees, public airport and harbor use fees.

7. Facility use charges, fees for parks and recreation services, garbage disposal tipping fees.

In addition to fees and charges, the measure puts fines and penalties assessed for the violation of state and 2 This does not include citizen initiative special tax approved by majority but not two-thirds. Because this approach is new, the number of these measures and amount of revenue involved cannot be estimated. 3 Source: California State Controller Annual Reports of Financial Transactions concerning cities, counties and special districts, summarized with an assumed growth due to fee rate increases (not population) of 2 percent annually. 4 School fees are also affected but the amount is negligible by comparison.

local law at risk, making them taxes subject to voter approval under certain circumstances.

2.b. Additional Costs and Public Service Effects of the Fee/Charge Provisions In addition to service delays and disruptions due to fee and charge revenues placed at greater legal risk, there would be substantial additional costs for legal defense. The risk to fees and charges will make infrastructure financing more difficult and will deter new residential and commercial development. ***********

The Taxpayer Protection and Government Accountability Act Initiative No. 21-0042A1
January 21, 2022
Summary: The measure limits the voters’ input, adopts new and stricter rules for raising taxes and fees, and makes it more difficult to hold state and local law violators accountable.

Limiting Voter Authority and Accountability
• Limits voter input. Prohibits local voters from providing direction on how local tax dollars should be spent by prohibiting local advisory measures. • Invalidates Upland decision that allows majority of local voters to pass special taxes. Taxes proposed by the Initiative are subject to the same rules as taxes placed on the ballot by a city council. All measures passed between January 2022 and November 2022 would be invalidated unless reenacted within 12 months.

Restricting Local Fee Authority to Provide Local Services • Franchise fees. Sets new standard for fees and charges paid for the use of local and state government property. The standard may significantly restrict the amount oil companies, utilities, gas companies, railroads, garbage companies, cable companies, and other corporations pay for the use of local public property. Rental and sale of local government property must be “reasonable” which must be proved by “clear and convincing evidence.”
• Except for licensing and other regulatory fees, fees and charges may not exceed the “actual cost” of providing the product or service for which the fee is charged. “Actual cost” is the “minimum amount necessary.” The burden to prove the fee or charge does not exceed “actual cost” is changed to “clear and convincing” evidence.

Restricting Authority of State and Local Governments to Issue Fines and Penalties for Violations of Law.
• Requires voter approval of fines, penalties, and levies for corporations and property owners that violate state and local laws unless a new, undefined adjudicatory process is used to impose the fines and penalties.

Item #16. Page 23
Meeting Date: 2/22/2022 / Packet Page #: 235
Restricting Local Tax Authority to Provide Local Services • Expanding existing taxes (e.g., UUT, use tax, TOT) to new territory (e.g., annexation) or expanding the base (e.g., new utility service) requires voter approval.
• City charters may not be amended to include a tax or fee. • New taxes can be imposed only for a specific time period. • Taxes adopted after January 1, 2022, that do not comply with the new rules, are void unless reenacted.
• All state taxes require majority voter approval.
• Prohibits any surcharge on property tax rate and allocation of property tax to state.

Other Changes
• No fee or charge or exaction regulating vehicle miles traveled can be imposed as a condition of property development or occupancy.

A RESOLUTION OF THE CITY COUNCIL OPPOSING THE TAXPAYER

PROTECTION AND GOVERNMENT ACCOUNTABILITY ACT
INITIATIVE 21-0042A1

THE CITY COUNCIL
City of Glendora, California
WHEREAS, an association representing California’s wealthiest corporations is behind a deceptive proposition aimed for the November 2022 statewide ballot; and WHEREAS, the measure creates new constitutional loopholes that that allow corporations to pay for less than their fair share for the impacts they have on our communities, including local infrastructure, our environment, water quality, air quality, and natural resources; and
WHEREAS, the measure includes undemocratic provisions that would make it more difficult for local voters to pass measures needed to fund local services and infrastructure, and would limit voter input by prohibiting local advisory measures where voters provide direction on how they want their local tax dollars spent; and
WHEREAS, the measure makes it much more difficult for state and local regulators to issue fines and levies on corporations that violate laws intended to protect our environment, public health and safety, and our neighborhoods; and
WHEREAS, the measure puts billions of dollars currently dedicated to state and local services at risk, and could force cuts to public schools, fire and emergency response, law enforcement, public health, parks, libraries, affordable housing, services to support homeless residents, mental health services, and more; and
WHEREAS, the measure would also reduce funding for critical infrastructure like streets and roads, public transportation, drinking water, new schools, sanitation, and utilities.

NOW, THEREFORE, THE CITY COUNCIL OF THE CITY OF GLENDORA, CALIFORNIA, DOES HEREBY RESOLVE AS FOLLOWS:

SECTION 1. The City, opposes Initiative 21-0042A1.

Hon. Rob Bonta
Attorney General
1300 I Street, 17th Floor
Sacramento, California 95814
Attention: Ms. Anabel Renteria
Initiative Coordinator
Dear Attorney General Bonta:

Pursuant to Elections Code Section 9005, we have reviewed the proposed constitutional Taxpayer Protection and Government Accountability Act initiative (A.G. File No. 21-0042, Amendment #1).

Background
State Government
Taxes and Fees. This year’s state budget spends over $255 billion in state funds. Over 90 percent of the state budget is funded with revenues from taxes. These include, for example, sales taxes paid on goods and income taxes paid on wages and other sources of income. Much of the rest of the state budget is funded by fees and other charges. Examples include: (1) charges relating to regulatory activities; (2) charges for specific government services or products, like fees charged to drivers to improve roads; (3) charges for entering state property, such as a state park; and (4) judicial fines, penalties, and other charges. The State Constitution requires the state to set fees at a reasonable level, generally reflecting the costs of the services or benefits provided.

The state uses revenue from taxes and fees to fund a variety of programs and services, including education, health care, transportation, and housing and homelessness services.

Current Requirements to Approve Taxes and Fees. Under the State Constitution, state tax increases require approval by two-thirds of each house of the Legislature or a majority vote of the statewide electorate. The Legislature can reduce taxes with a majority vote of each house, provided the change does not result in an increase in taxes paid by any single taxpayer. In many cases, the Legislature has enacted statutes that delegate its authority to adjust fees and other Item #16. Page 27
Meeting Date: 2/22/2022 / Packet Page #: 239
Hon. Rob Bonta 2 January 19, 2022
charges to administrative entities, like state departments. In these cases, these charges can be increased or changed by the department within certain limits.

Local Government
Taxes and Fees. The largest local government tax is the property tax, which raises roughly $75 billion annually. Other local taxes include sales taxes, utility taxes, and hotel taxes. In addition to these taxes, local governments levy a variety of fees and other charges. Examples include parking meter fees, building permit fees, regulatory fees, and judicial fines and penalties.

In order to be considered a fee, the charge cannot exceed the reasonable costs to the local government of providing the associated product or service. Local governments use revenues from taxes and fees to fund a variety of services, like fire and police, public works, and parks.

Current Requirements to Approve Taxes and Fees. State law requires increases in local taxes to receive approval of the local governing body—for example, a city council or county board of supervisors—as well as approval of voters in that local jurisdiction. Most proposed taxes require a two-thirds vote of the local governing board before being presented to the voters.

Special taxes (those used for a specific purpose) require a two-thirds vote of the electorate while other types of taxes require a majority vote of the electorate. The majority-vote general taxes can be used for any purpose. Recent case law suggests that citizen initiative special taxes may be approved by majority vote, rather than a two-thirds vote. Currently, local governing bodies have the ability to delegate their authority to adjust fees and other charges to administrative entities, like city departments. In these cases, these charges can be increased or changed by the department within certain limits.

Proposal
This measure amends the State Constitution to change the rules for how the state and local governments can impose taxes, fees, and other charges.

State and Local Government Taxes
Expands Definition of Tax. The measure amends the State Constitution to expand the definition of taxes to include some charges that state and local governments currently treat as fees and other charges. For example, certain charges imposed for a benefit or privilege granted to a payer but not granted to those not charged would no longer be considered fees. As a result, the measure could increase the number of revenue proposals subject to the higher state and local vote requirements for taxes discussed below.

Requires Voter Approval for State Taxes. The measure increases the vote requirements for increasing state taxes. Specifically, the measure requires that legislatively proposed tax increases receive approval by two-thirds of each house and a majority vote of the statewide electorate.

Voters would still be able to increase taxes by majority vote of the electorate without legislative action, however. Any state tax approved between January 1, 2022 and the effective date of this measure would be nullified unless it fulfills the requirements of the measure.

Requirements for Approving Local Taxes. Whether sought by the local governing body or the electorate, the measure establishes the same approval requirements for increasing local Item #16. Page 28
Meeting Date: 2/22/2022 / Packet Page #: 240
Hon. Rob Bonta 3 January 19, 2022
special taxes. Any local tax approved between January 1, 2022 and the effective date of this measure would be nullified unless it fulfills the requirements of the measure.

Allowable Uses and Duration of State and Local Tax Revenues Must Be Specified. The measure requires state and local tax measures to identify the type and amount (or rate) of the tax and the duration of the tax. State and local government general tax measures must state that the revenue can be used for general purposes.

State and Local Government Fees
Requires the Legislature and Local Government Bodies to Impose State and Local Fees.

Fees would have to be imposed by a majority vote of both houses of the Legislature or local governing bodies. The measure would restrict the ability of state and local governments to delegate fee changes to administrative entities. The extent of these restrictions would depend on future court decisions. Any fee approved between January 1, 2022 and the effective date of this measure would be nullified unless it fulfills the requirements of the measure.

Some New State and Local Fees Could Not Exceed Actual Costs. For some categories of fees, if the Legislature or a local governing body wished to impose a new fee or make changes to an existing fee, the measure generally would require that the charge be both reasonable and reflect the actual costs to the state or local government of providing the service. The measure also specifies that actual cost should not exceed “the minimum amount necessary.” In many cases, existing fees already reflect the government’s actual costs. In other cases, some fees would have to more closely approximate the payer’s actual costs in order to remain fees. If a fee payer challenged the charge, the state or local government would need to provide clear and convincing evidence that the fee meets this threshold. State and local governments also would bear the burden of providing clear and convincing evidence that the levy is a fee—which is not subject to a vote by the electorate—and not a tax under the new definition.

Fiscal Effects
Lower State Tax and Fee Revenue. By expanding the definition of a tax, increasing the vote requirements for approving taxes, and restricting administrative changes to fees, the measure makes it harder for the Legislature to increase nearly all types of state revenues. The extent to which revenues would be lower under the measure would depend on various factors, most notably future decisions made by the Legislature and voters. For example, requirements for legislative approval of fee increases currently set administratively could result in lower fee revenues, depending on future votes of the Legislature. That lower revenue could be particularly notable for some state programs largely funded by fees. Due to the uncertainty of these factors, we cannot estimate the amount of reduced state revenue, but it could be substantial.

Lower Local Government Tax and Fee Revenue. Compared to the state, local governments generally face greater restrictions to raising revenue. By expanding the definition of taxes and restricting administrative changes to fees, the measure would make it somewhat harder for local governments to raise revenue. Consequently, future local tax and fee revenue could be lower than they would be otherwise. The extent to which revenues would be lower is unknown, but Item #16. Page 29
Meeting Date: 2/22/2022 / Packet Page #: 241
Hon. Rob Bonta 4 January 19, 2022
fees could be more impacted. The actual impact on local government revenue would depend on various factors, including future decisions by the courts, local governing bodies, and voters.

Possible Increased State and Local Administrative Costs to Change Some Fee Levels. In some cases, state and local departments would need to develop methods for setting fees to reflect actual costs if the Legislature or local governing bodies wanted to change those fees in the future. Estimating actual costs by program and fee source could involve some added workload for those state and local departments, which likely would be supported by fee revenue. The extent of these administrative costs would depend on (1) whether the state and local governments determine a fee increase is needed in order to maintain their current level of programs and services funded through fee revenue and (2) future court decisions.

Summary of Fiscal Effects. We estimate that this measure would have the following major fiscal effects:
• Lower annual state and local revenues, potentially substantially lower, depending on future actions of the Legislature, local governing bodies, voters, and the courts.

Sincerely,

STAFF REPORT
TO: CHAIR AND AUTHORITY MEMBERS DATE: FEBRUARY 22, 2022 FROM: COMMUNITY DEVELOPMENT DISTRICT(S): CITYWIDE
SUBJECT: GLENDORA HOUSING AUTHORITY ANNUAL REPORT FOR FISCAL YEAR 2020-2021.

RECOMMENDATION
That the Housing Authority:

1. Receive and file the annual report;

2. Direct staff to forward report to the California Department of Housing and Community Development; and

3. Direct staff on programming excess surplus funds (alternatives included in body of staff report).

EXECUTIVE SUMMARY
The information contained in this report includes a discussion of Housing Authority activities conducted during the reporting period meeting the requirements pursuant to Section 34328 of the Health and Safety Code which requires that the Housing Authority prepare and submit an annual report to the California Department of Housing and Community Development (HCD) each year. The annual report is included as Attachment A.

The report also includes financial information which shows that the Housing Authority has an “excess surplus,” which is defined as an unencumbered amount in the fund that exceeds the greater of one million dollars ($1,000,000) or the aggregate amount deposited into the account during the housing successor's preceding four fiscal years, whichever is greater. City Council should discuss the options available and provide staff with direction regarding how to spend/encumber the excess surplus.

LEGISLATIVE HISTORY / PREVIOUS ACTIONS
In 2011, the State of California took steps to eliminate all redevelopment agencies. Pursuant to these actions, including a legal challenge opposing the elimination of redevelopment agencies, the Glendora Redevelopment Agency was dissolved effective February 1, 2012. To retain and administer the former agency’s low and moderate-income housing assets, the dissolution act allowed the City of Glendora to form a Housing Authority to retain and administer the Redevelopment Agency’s affordable housing assets.

Consequently, the City adopted Resolution No. 2012-04 on January 10, 2012 declaring the need and creating the Housing Authority of the City of Glendora (the “Housing Authority”).

Pursuant to Section 34176, added by ABx1 26 and amended by AB 1484, the State Department of Finance issued a letter in August 2012 confirming that the Housing Authority holds all affordable assets listed in the housing asset transfer schedule submitted to the Department of Finance in July 2012.

DISCUSSION
Pursuant to Section 34328 of the Health and Safety Code, Housing authorities are required to prepare an annual report to the California Department of Housing and Community Development (HCD) each year.

The information contained in this report includes a discussion of Housing Authority activities during the reporting period. Additionally, SB 341 requires successors to redevelopment housing assets to prepare an annual report for each fiscal year of the housing successor.

Annual expenditures of the Housing Authority are primarily for the administration of overseeing Housing Authority activity. Activity includes annual monitoring of affordable units at the Heritage Oaks Apartments and Elwood Apartments. The Housing Authority also administers a portfolio of loans made to low-income households for home improvements. While the Housing Authority is not currently providing home improvement loans or undertaking construction of low-income housing, efforts are focused on the preservation of existing affordability restrictions.

The attached report, prepared by Keyser Marston Associates, Inc. for the Housing Authority, is intended to satisfy annual and fiscal year reporting requirements under Section 34328 and 34176.1. The report covers fiscal year 2020-2021. Once the Housing Authority accepts the report, staff will submit the combined report to HCD.

The Housing Authority will also need to discuss excess surplus, another component to the annual housing report. In addition to reporting on activities, the report includes the Housing Authority financials as listed in the City’s Annual Comprehensive Financial Report (ACFR) as well as deposits made into the fund over the past four fiscal years. Excess surplus is defined as an amount in the fund that exceeds the greater of one million dollars ($1,000,000) or the total amount deposited into the fund during the housing successor's preceding four fiscal years, whichever is greater.

A summary of the fund balance, the deposits and the excess surplus for the last three years is in the table below. Additional detail is found on Table 4 of the report. In summary, the Authority must spend, or at least encumber $550,503 before July 1, 2022 if it wishes to avoid transferring the funds to the state for certain state housing programs. An additional $573,150, however, will need to be spent or encumbered by July 1, 2024 (for a total of $1,123,653 excess surplus). Pursuant to the statute, any excess surplus in the LMIHAF must be spent or at least encumbered on eligible expenditures specified for excess surplus within three years or be subject to transfer to the state.

Excess Surplus Calculation July 1, 2019 July 1, 2020 July 1, 2021 Available Housing Authority Balance: $2,195,772 $2,241,861 $2,292,283 Aggregate Deposits - Prior 4 Years: $1,645,269 $2,097,400 $1,168,630 Excess Surplus: $550,503 $144,461 $1,123,653
Must be spent (or encumbered) by: 6/30/2022 06/30/2023 06/30/2024 Annual deposits are not a regular recurring amount. On average, the Housing Authority’s annual revenue averages about $150,000 if certain one-time revenues are excluded. There are a few outlying deposits which skew the average and create the excess surplus. In 2016-2017, $1,015,230 was received as additional rent from the Heritage Oaks property as part of their refinance. Per the terms of the Leasehold Agreement with the owner of Heritage Oaks, the Authority is due 20% of any proceeds realized from a refinance. In 2019-20, $405,007 was both received and spent by the Authority as part of its proportionate share of the City’s Pension Obligation Bonds which were issued to pay for unfunded pension liabilities.

This year, in addition to the normal deposits, the Successor Agency received a nonregular payment from the City/Agency loans under H&SC Section 34191.4 which resulted in a required payment to the Housing Authority of 20% or $67,559.

Staff recommends that Housing Authority discuss the different eligible options available for spending excess surplus. While $550,593 must be encumbered this fiscal year, it may be beneficial to look ahead and encumber the $1,123,653 that will be required to be spent/encumbered by 2024. In addition, the Housing Authority should keep in mind, they are not limited to encumbering $1.12M, as the Housing Authority has a cash balance of $2,031,034 as of the writing of this report.

The options available under Health and Safety Code (HSC) 34176.1 subdivision (d) are as follows:

Development of affordable housing. Housing developed must be affordable to and occupied by households earning 80% or less of the area median income. The breakdown of households (HH) that must be assisted is further broken down as follows:
 Extremely Low Income HH (30% AMI) - minimum 30% of funding  Low Income HH (30.01 – 60% AMI) – maximum of 70% of funding  Low Income HH (60.01 - 80% AMI) – maximum of 20% of funding  In addition, assistance to rental housing restricted to seniors is limited to 50% of the units assisted.

For purposes of this section, development includes new construction, acquisition and rehabilitation. The affordable units would be deed restricted as affordable housing for a period of 55 years.

Development of affordable housing may include one of the following:
 Option 1 – Land Acquisition:

Acquire property and designate it for affordable housing as noted above. Acquisition costs would include the purchase price, any relocation of occupants needed and demolition of any existing improvements. City staff would then need to solicit affordable housing developers to develop and operate the property.
 Option 2 – Purchase One to Two Housing Units:

The Housing Authority can opt to purchase one or two condominiums ($550,593 to $1,123,653+) and then contract with a non-profit to operate the unit(s) for 55 years renting one or both to extremely low-income households, or one to an extremely low- and one to a low- (30-60% AMI) income household.
 Option 3 – Financing
The Housing Authority could provide construction financing for an affordable project to secure longterm (55-year) covenants. Without an existing project that immediately needs financing, being able to spend or commit the funds in a timely manner would be difficult.

In addition to funding available through the Housing Authority (Fund 290), it should be noted that there are other resources available to help fund an affordable housing project. The Affordable Housing Fund (Fund 285) has $1,137,309 available to contribute to a project. The City is also eligible to apply for Permanent Local Housing Allocation (PLHA) funds made available through SB2 and awarded through HCD. PLHA funds have similar goals in providing affordable housing. The City has up to four years after the appropriation amount has been published to apply for the PLHA funds to put towards a project. A cumulative total of $332,719 from 2019/20 and 2020/21 was appropriated to the City of Glendora, however without a project we have yet to apply. The amount appropriated for 2021/22 has not yet been released, but it is a realistic expectation to assume at least an additional $125,000 based on their five year projection. In total, Fund 285, Fund 290 and PLHA funds would yield approximately $3.6 million dollars for an affordable housing project. In addition, there are other grant programs available for affordable housing projects that staff can pursue.

Affordable Housing Resources
Housing Authority (Fund 290) $2,031,034
Affordable Housing (Fund 285) $1,137,309
PLHA Funds $457,719
Total: $3,626,062
Transfer funds to another housing successor: Should the Housing Authority not be agreeable to the options provided beforehand, the alternative would be to enter into an agreement with a separate housing successor (authority) within the county, transferring up to one million dollars per year into their respective Low and Moderate Income Housing Asset Fund for the sole purpose of developing transit priority projects.

The following conditions must be met:
 Each housing successor must make a finding based on substantial evidence, after a public hearing that the agreement to transfer funds will not cause of exacerbate racial, ethnic, or economic segregation;
 The development to be funded shall not be located in a census tract where more than 50 percent of its population is very low income, unless the development is within one-half a mile of a major transit stop or high quality transit corridor; and  The completed development shall not result in a reduction in the number of housing units or a reduction in the affordability of housing units on the site where the development is to be built.  Each housing successor must have an adopted housing element that the Department of Housing and Community Development has found to be in substantial compliance with requirements.

Take no action: According to the Health and Safety Code, if the excessive surplus remains in the fund unencumbered beyond the three fiscal years, then within 90 days of the end of the third fiscal year, the housing authority shall transfer the excess surplus to the Department of Housing and Community Development.

At this time, staff requests that the Housing Authority discuss the eligible ways to spend or encumber the excess surplus funds and direct staff on how to proceed. Staff will return to Council with a defined plan according to the Housing Authority’s instruction. The Housing Authority needs to encumber $550,503 before the end of this fiscal year, but may choose to address $1,123,653 of excess surplus that needs to be spent or encumbered by June 30, 2024. The Housing Successor has more than $2 million to commit to a project should they choose to address more than just the excess surplus.

FISCAL IMPACT
The cost to prepare this report for the Housing Authority with assistance from Keyser Marston Associates, Inc. is not to exceed $4,500. It is funded under the 2021-2022 Housing Authority Fund budget for contract services.

ENVIRONMENTAL DETERMINATION
This activity is not a “project” as defined by Section 21065 of the Public Resources Code or Sections 15060(c)(2), 15060(c)(3), and 15378 of the CEQA Guidelines.
