Staff Report: City Manager Gil and Finance Director Howard presented the staff report via powerpoint presentation explaining the balanced budget; Community Center and Industrial Wastewawter Treatment Plant operating budget; general fund operating budget; revenues and expenses; capital costs; budget focusing on the Community Center, Industrial Wastewater Treatment Plant, Housing and exploring new revenue sources; future budget opportunities; ongoing challenges; general fund revenues and expenditures; debt service loans; Measure K allocations; Measure X; future items on the horizon; and general fund revenue strategies.

Public Comment: Henry Martinez Jr. commented about the Council overspending last year on a drone for the Police Department, no court cases paying for that, and said it was a waste of money.

He also agreed with the City raising taxes on the properties because they, as landlords, were going to raise the rents.

Henry Martinez Sr. said he was the reporter for Gonzales Real News and he commented about not hearing next year’s plans from the City on payroll freezes; not to fill the Captain’s position; and stop buying military equipment. He also said Council Member Funk was bragging about owning one of the electric vehicles and wanted to put a charging station so he could charge his car.

Council Member Funk said he normally waited at the end of the meeting to comment but since it was a large group here, he wanted to go on record that he does not own an electric vehicle, nor was he in the market for one.

Henry Martinez III, commented he wanted to have a safe Fourth of July this year and he was helping the football team and his family and didn’t want anyone to get hurt.

City Attorney Rodriquez intervened and said we were discussing the agenda for the budget and there was another section for public comment under general public comments where he could address his comments.

Council Discussion: City Manager Gil addressed Council Member Worthy’s question about the Community Engagement Department on the organizational chart, and clarified she was the Director before and she was now the one overseeing that department as a whole, and that position was not currently filled.

Council Member Worthy brought up the issue of $30,000 for the Community Action Grants. She felt it was a want versus need and we needed to consider cutting that although it’s tough, but the community needed to understand that our budget was really tight. She said the City Manager already cut quite a few of the programs and we had to put in the fire truck because that was a necessity for safety. She also shared the afterschool/kid power programs and the day camps were addressed by the City Manager in another area. She asked if the $30,000 could be allocated back into the general fund.

City Manager Gil responded the way to do it was to use them to offset some of the costs that were currently eating up the general fund to pay for recreation programing.

Council Member Silva shared her thoughts which she discussed with the City Manager, about possibly reducing the amount budgeted for the After School/Kid Power Program and maybe the day camps and getting the school district to come to the table and help provide funding for that or increase the cost. She said we had taken money away from our aquatics program, which she thought was necessary for us to have a great aquatics program for our youth and our community in general to learn water safety. She wanted to look at the possibility of reallocating some of the Packet Pg. 24
Minutes Acceptance: Minutes of Jun 16, 2025 5:00 PM (CONSENT AGENDA)

Page 4 of 5 ends

monies from those two programs and maybe including it into the aquatics programming. She also discussed without having any new revenue sources and the increases in expenditures, they could do potential deferment of the City Council stipends and or merit increases that could be due in the next fiscal year. She said they were hard things to consider but if we continued bleeding out the way we were and knowing now that our reserves were going to go down to half a million dollars, it was going to be a challenge.

City Manager Gil indicated in terms of aquatics, when staff made cuts and redefining the budget for this fiscal year, we looked at the year to day activity in our current year to project, and expenses were $90,743. She mentioned that we reduced everything we could such as the number of staff and recreational aides, and had been working on making sure that everyone at the pool was absolutely needed, but there were no extra staff this year. She said for this year, staff allocated $99,885. She added that some of the Measure K dollars helped supplement some of the staff time or programming, in addition to potential grants for all of our programming.

Council Member Funk thanked staff for a great presentation and report.

Council Member Orozco mentioned the school had an after school program but she didn’t know what they offered. In regards to the Community Action Grants, she felt it was hard to reduce those since some of the projects that come from those grants were things that we wouldn't be able to do without the grants, but there were some groups that had formed their 501 C3 and it would enable them to apply for some additional funding.

City Manager Gil clarified that the funding for the After School and Camp programming were kept there, but it was significantly reduced in the budget. She said the intent and reason for keeping some of it was because we also must figure out how to program the Community Center.

Mayor Rios concurred with Council Member Silva’s comment regarding the stipend, if it made a difference, he would be happy to give it up so that staff realized we were feeling the pain as well and the budget was tight, and there was no way around it.

After public comment, City Attorney asked the Council if there was going to be any further Council discussion about any of the items that were raised by the individual Council Members.

He said there were some suggestions made for possible modifications to the budget such as the issue of the stipends and the Council needed to provide staff with direction since it had to be undertaken by a resolution that had to be brought back.

Mayor Rios asked Council Member Silva since she was the one that brought it up.

Council Member Silva felt that in order for her to feel good about asking people to consider not taking a merit increase for the coming year, although the Council’s stipend was minimal, it could be the first step in helping to preserve our budget. She hoped the rest of the Council felt the same way.

Finance Director Howard indicated that if they adopted the budget with the change, staff would make those changes since it would go on the record, but if they rather bring it back, they could do that also.

Council Member Silva asked what about the merit increases.

Finance Director Howard responded that would be a further discussion and suggested brining it back to the Council.

City Manager Gil concurred that would have to be brought back later because staff had to see what that meant and what the numbers would be.

City Attorney Rodriquez pointed out that there have been some issues about possible modifications to the Measure K Budget and the Council would be considering it under the regular meeting following this budget meeting that they can pull so they could discuss it then and mention any changes, and then staff can make those adjustments to the budget after adoption.

Council Member Worthy mentioned to the public that the idea of the Council eliminating their stipend was to show they were willing to do that for our community because we had such a tight budget. She just wanted the community to understand that and even if it didn’t seem like it was a lot of money, there were five members in the Council and everyone was willing to do it because they cared about what was going on. She said we also need the community to help out when we have tax measures come up. And that was part of the reason why we were in such a tight situation when one of those tax measures didn’t pass last year.

PRESENTATIONS

2. Gonzales Little League Sportsmanship Recognitions
Deputy City Clerk Villegas read the certificates of recognition and Mayor Rios presented them to the athletes. He thanked the parents for all the work they put in for their kids.

3. Fourth of July Preparations
City Manager Gil, presented via powerpoint, the preparedness efforts, City messaging by various means, safety measures, prior years calls, drone support, and staff deployment.

Mayor Rios asked for public comment.

Henry Martinez Jr. said he will be sending a letter to the City and the Police Department that his 13 properties will not be on surveillance or flown over without a proper warrant by any of the Police Officers or the City. He commented about not going to the Fourth of July park event to take toys or anything. He announced he will be hosting a party at his house which was open to the public and he will be spending upwards of $4,000 in fireworks out of the City, not within the City, and he will throw the biggest party that this town has ever seen this Fourth of July. He added he will have security to combat the Police Department because they sent 25 Officers last year, and it was going to be glorious and huge, and encouraged the public to go over to his house and party to stand up for freedom, especially on a Friday night for which it made no sense to have a 10:30pm curfew. He also talked about the drone not getting any money back from all the court cases and he was glad they didn’t receive portions of that money back.

Henry Martinez Sr. commented about what happened last year when officers went to his house and they had to call mutual aid because there was a disturbance and was assaulted by the drone officer with a flashlight. He hoped he doesn’t fly the drone this time because those tickets would be invalid; he wanted to charge him with a felony as soon as he was done with his case of being falsely arrested; and he would hand over the video to his lawyer.

Henry Martinez III commented he would be helping the football team and he loved them dearly and the school.

Mayor Rios told Mr. Martinez III this was public comments for the Fourth of July item.

Mr. Martinez III said he wanted to have a safe Fourth of July; and commented about still having complaints about roads needing to be repaired; fireworks popping off next to his house; the need Packet Pg. 28
Minutes Acceptance: Minutes of Jun 16, 2025 6:00 PM (CONSENT AGENDA)

Page 3 of 9 ends

to be on those people for illegal fireworks; and he hated being surveillanced by the drone because it gave him a heartbeat. He also said he respected the firemen going out there and working hard, the fire truck still needed to be repaired and told the Fire Chief to never give up.

BUSINESS FROM THE PUBLIC

4. Business from the Public not on the Agenda; any member of the Public may address the Council for a period not to exceed three minutes on any subject not on the Agenda. The Council will listen to all communications, but may take no action.

Pete Maturino commented about his conversation last February regarding safety on his street when there was a suggestion about signing a petition by the people that lived in the area, it was turned in but he hadn’t seen it on the agenda. He understood the Public Works Director was busy but asked if he could finish what they were requesting since it was a safety issue and elaborated on a recent incident.

Henry Martinez Sr. was surprised to see the officer that charged them in the building and elaborated on the time he was in Salinas on the front line for his rights regarding immigration; City not help with that and three Council Members never voted for a sanctuary City.

City Attorney Rodriquez noted that notwithstanding the fact that the City hadn't adopted anything to designate itself as a sanctuary City, the law in the State of California under its act, essentially did the same exact thing, separating the actions and funding for federal enforcement of the immigration laws from the enforcement actions of individual Police Departments, so there was a law and there was a mandate, notwithstanding what Mr. Martinez just said.

Henry Martinez Jr. told City Attorney Rodriquez that was his interpretation and the law was interpretable but the people themselves needed to hear it from our so called leaders and he would stand with the Hispanic people. He elaborated on the different ICE raids here and in the neighboring towns and said Soledad Police Department was doing a better job than Gonzales because they stood for their people.

City Manager Gil wanted to make a remark that the City of Gonzales did provide a statement regarding everything happening early on, and was also on our social media pages, website, etc.

Mayor Rios reiterated that he knew that for a fact when the City Manager and Chief of Police attended the meeting at the High School and they made that very clear, and he thanked Chief Wise for doing so.

Proceeds Received from the Measure ‘K’ Transaction and Use Tax, During Fiscal Year 2025- 2026, Including Funding Allocations
Council Member Worthy pulled Item 13 for further discussion on the Measure K list relating to the Community Action Grants amount of $30,000.

She mentioned that they’ve all made a decision that we would like to have our stipends pulled for the upcoming fiscal year. So she felt that we needed to pull this amount, and she understood we had a lot of people from our organizations that depended on those community action grants, but many of the people that have received those community action grants have been the same groups that have been receiving them the entire time, and we had always said that it was supposed to be a funding source for them to get started. She said that's how it was always presented when we started this group. She added she spoke to a couple of the groups who had told her that they knew this was coming, and that they had been asking for donations from people.

Mayor Pro Tem Silva asked for more details on this since she couldn’t open the item.

City Manager Gil responded what this motion did was to approve the $30,000, then it would still go back to a Subcommittee of the Measure K Oversight Committee after applications were received.

Council Member Funk asked Council Member Worthy for clarification if she was suggesting we removed the $30,000 from the list.

Council Member Worthy responded yes and if it was possible to put it into the reserves.

Finance Director Howard responded yes and in other jurisdictions with oversight committees had funded the reserve and it meant it couldn't be used for operational expenses, it would actually be earmarked for general fund reserves as these are general fund revenues.

Council Member Orozco mentioned that when we first passed and advocated for Measure K, we told the public that Measure K was going to help support senior programs, recreation and youth programs, and that was one of the biggest pushes for us to pass Measure K, and some of the projects that were done under community grants serviced and met the gap we were not able to provide services for, like the seniors and the youth. She felt it was hard to pull back and say we were not going to be able to serve those programs now. She would like to see what it would be or what it would look like with the financial numbers coming back in terms of doing away with our stipends, and what that amount will look like or how we can maybe tweak.

Council Member Funk didn’t think we should eliminate it completely. He knew we increased it the last few years and he didn’t think there was discussion about removing it with the Measure K Committee, so that would be a surprise to the committee. He mentioned we did discuss the amount for sure and that was what was recommended. He also elaborated on the Measure K funding that wasn’t going to go into aquatics as last year. He didn’t like the idea of putting it into a reserve because reserve was kind of ambiguous.

Council Member Orozco recalled that there were some groups that applied multiple times for funding.

Council Member Worthy most of the groups that had applied had been the same groups.

Summer Camp
• Prior to kicking off Summer Camp, we had two days of cleaning and staff training and then got the rest of the week off for some much-needed rest before heading into the summer. • The first week of summer camp took place June 16th - June 20th and we were excited to see lots of new faces. Every week of Summer Camp focuses on a different theme/topic and the theme for our first week focused on STEAM so the children had the opportunity to build their own remotecontrolled cars from scratch and take them home. The car kits were purchased through the Nancy Buck Ransom Foundation Grant that we received.
• Summer Camp always works to integrate immersions with different City Departments as well as organizations. For the first week of camp, we received a visit from the Fire Department and the children got to ask lots of questions including how to become a firefighter. The children also had AGENDA

the opportunity to learn about the Jaws of Life and other tools they use every day to save lives.

Lastly, the children were able to play a few games with the firefighters, including aiming to spray a little house with a fire hose.
• Week 2 of summer camp took place on June 23rd - June 25th and this week the children were able to receive a visit from the Police Department which included Officer Perez, Officer Correa and Community Service Officer Jasmin Garcia. They got to meet Officer Correa and ask him how he became an Officer after being a Community Service Officer. They also took the kids outside to go over traffic safety rules, including how to safely cross the crosswalk.

City Sports League
• Our Softball Rec Girls 14U division had their last game on June 9th, a scrimmage against some of the softball players from high school. It was a fun and exciting experience. Our rec girls did very well against the JV players that they played against. An official score was not kept, but our rec girls did score more runs than their opponents. It was a fun evening. The girls’ softball rec game kicked off the season for our adult co-ed softball league. • Adult co-ed softball started on June 9th. We have a full schedule this season with a total of 14 teams.

City of Gonzales 2025 Summer REuse, REcycle & Cleanup Day Report
July 1, 2025
Submitted to: Mayor & City Council of the City of Gonzales through the Office of the City Manager On June 28, 2025, the City of Gonzales held its summer REuse, REcycle & Cleanup Day event at Fairview Middle School. Tri-Cities advertised the event to residential customers through social media and direct mail. The eventserviced one hundred twenty-nine (129) vehicle loads.

This event provides landfill disposal vouchers for refrigerators and freezers at the Johnson Canyon Landfill. Bulky items such as mattresses and appliances are routed to the landfill for free recycling.

Moving forward, the event will no longer track items diverted to the landfill. We will, however, continue to promote the diversion of these items in advertisements and provide disposal vouchers for refrigerators and freezers.

The event focuses on preventing illegal dumping, helping residents "clear the clutter," and promoting reuse and donation. It facilitates source separation, recycling, and proper disposal of hazardous wastes, trash, appliances, mattresses, scrap metal, rigid plastics, and electronic waste.

Residents had access to free and safe disposal of ABOP (Antifreeze, Batteries, Oil, and Paint) materials and sharps containers through Salinas Valley Recycles. Monterey County Environmental Health coordinated a CalRecycle grantfunded oil filter exchange (up to two vouchers for free filters) and provided free oil and filter collection kits. Please note the uptick in hazardous materials collections for this event.

The event provided residents with 25 cubic yards of free compost from the City of Gonzales. Although it was advertised prominently, the community did not take full advantage of this offering. We will reduce the amount offered in the upcoming fall event. TCDRS delivered the leftover compost to the Gonzales Community Garden and the Public Works yard.

The "Take it or Leave it" area remains a big hit with the community. As anyone who has participated in these events knows, the reuse area contains many great finds. Our partnerships also enable us to support numerous community groups and non-profits.

Event Highlights:
• Gonzales Community Church Clothing Closet: Fulfilled their request for men's jeans, pants, and shorts. • South County Animal Rescue: Four large bags of towels, linens, and blankets. • Swimsuits were donated to a local pool and recreation program for those who could not afford them. • Volunteers collected formal and prom dresses for delivery to the MC Free Library's prom clothing program. • Save the Whales collected 100 stormwater surveys to support the city's stormwater management plan.

PUBLIC WORKS / CITY ENGINEER DEPARTMENT

STAFF REPORT
TO: Honorable Mayor Rios and City Council
DATE: July 21, 2025
FROM: Patrick Dobbins, Public Works Director/City Engineer THROUGH: Carmen Gil, City Manager
SUBJECT: Resolution No. 2025-48 Industrial Wastewater Pipeline Project Notice of Completion

RECOMMENDATION
Staff recommends that the City Council consider and adopt Resolution No. 2025-48, A Resolution of the City Council of the City of Gonzales accepting the Industrial Wastewater Pipeline Project as complete and directing staff to file a Notice of Completion with the County Recorder.

BACKGROUND
The City is expanding the wastewater system by constructing an Industrial Wastewater (IW) System to treat and dispose of ag-wash water discharged from the three large processing facilities in the Business Park. The IW System is being delivered under two contracts:

1. Construct the IW Pipeline beginning in the Business Park and along Fermin Lane.

2. Construct the IW Treatment Facility on City-owned property abutting the existing WWTP.

The construction documents (plans, technical specifications, and cost estimate) for the IW Pipeline Project were prepared by Dudek Consulting. The IW Pipeline consists of 8,500 feet of 27-inch PVC pipe and 2,300 feet of 24-inch PVC pipe. Lateral connections were installed at Taylor Farms, Del Monte and Braga Fresh, and 21 new manholes were installed to support maintenance and inspections.

REVIEW & ANALYSIS
The project was issued for bid on June 27, 2024. On August 6, 2024 five bids were received and opened, and Sierra Construction & Excavation submitted the lowest responsive and responsible bid and was AGENDA
ITEM
13 Packet Pg. 72
awarded the construction contract at the September 3, 2024 City Council meeting. The contractor began field operations on November 4, 2024 and completed the project on June 30, 2025.

The following consultants provided professional engineering services during construction:
• MNS Engineers provided Construction Management and Inspection services • Dudek Consulting provided Design Support during Construction (reviewed submittals, Requests for Information and prepared the Record Drawings based on the contractor’s red-lined plan set) • Pacific Crest Geotechnical performed the compaction testing for the trench backfill MNS provided close monitoring of construction and modified the contract based on actual conditions and efforts by the contractor. During construction, eight change orders were executed that resulted in a total Project cost below the original awarded bid amount.

The overall contract deduct was achieved via removal of unused bid items such as dewatering, pipe zone backfill, over-excavation, re-alignment of water pipeline, and AC pipe removal, all of which were not required during construction. As well as deduction in price based on the actual unit quantities of pipeline and asphalt installed versus assumed during bid. While unexpected issues did arise on the project, including re-routing pipelines and laterals, demolition of an unknown holding tank, and addition of a lateral connection to Braga Fresh. Additions in scope were negotiated and fairly paid for the effort required.

The project team’s close construction observation, documentation, and management resulted in a quality project completed on-time and under-budget. The following table provides a breakdown of the bid price versus the final project cost.

BACKGROUND:

Trash pumps are used to move wastewater between treatment ponds and disposal beds at the wastewater treatment plant. This is done to fill and empty disposal ponds to maximize percolation of treated wastewater and maintenance of the ponds.

STAFF REPORT
TO: Honorable Mayor Rios and City Council
DATE: July 21, 2025
FROM: Patrick Dobbins, Public Works Director/City Engineer THROUGH: Carmen Gil, City Manager
SUBJECT: Resolution No. 2025-50 Task Order #4 Dudek Contract for WWTP Preliminary Design Report

RECOMMENDATION
It is recommended that the City Council Adopt Resolution No. 2025-50, A Resolution of the City Council of the City of Gonzales Authorizing Task Order No. 4 under a Master Service Agreement with Dudek Consulting for Preparation of a Preliminary Design Report for Rehabilitation of the Wastewater Treatment Plant in the amount of $234,959.

BACKGROUND
Wastewater discharge from residential, commercial, and industrial properties in Gonzales is conveyed to the City-owned municipal wastewater treatment plant (MWWTP). The MWWTP operates under a permit from the Central Coast Regional Water Quality Control Board (RWQCB) and has a permitted capacity of

1.30 million gallons/day (MGD). Currently, the MWWTP treats and disposes of approximately 1.20 MGD, near its permitted capacity and has struggled to meet the 2006 discharge permit requirements as the MWWTP was not designed for the amount of ag-wash water it must treat every day. In April 2023 the Central Coast Regional Water Quality Board issued a new discharge permit that contains requirements that the MWWTP is not capable of meeting.

To address the issue, the City has undertaken a multi-phased approach to upgrade the wastewater system to comply with the new RWQCB permit and expand wastewater capacity to accommodate residential and industrial developments.

AGENDA
ITEM
15 Packet Pg. 86
Phase 1 is to construct a 1.0 MGD Industrial Wastewater System, which will treat and dispose 1.0 MGD of ag-wash water. The City has been working diligently on Phase 1 as the IW Conveyance Pipeline was completed on June 30, 2025 and issuance of the Notice to Proceed on the Industrial Wastewater Treatment Facility (IWTF) occurring on July 1, 2025. Completion of the Industrial Wastewater System is anticipated in the Spring of 2027.

With Phase 1 well underway, the City is kicking off Phase 2 which is rehabilitation of the existing MWWTP. With the IWTF operational and treating 1.0 MGD of flow, the City will remove one treatment train from service at the MWWTP for rehabilitation followed by the second treatment train. Upon completion of Phase 2, the City’s wastewater system will be capable of meeting regulatory requirements.

As a first order of business for Phase 2, a Preliminary Design Report will be prepared to evaluate treatment technology alternatives to identify a preferred alternative to move forward into preliminary and final design. With grant support from MNS Engineers, the City was awarded a $294,000 grant from the State Water Resource Control Board on April 1, 2025 to fund this effort.

Dudek was requested to prepare a scope and fee for the Planning study to be awarded as Task Order No. 4 via the Master Services Agreement for Wastewater Design Services with Dudek, approved at the June 17, 2024 City Council meeting. Dudek was selected for this contract having been engaged to provide Wastewater Design Services through a Request for Qualifications solicitation in Spring of 2024.

REVIEW & ANALYSIS
Dudek’s design services under Task Order 4 are:
• Collect site specific data related to projected wastewater flows at the MWWTP, as well as influent wastewater characteristics and effluent discharge criteria. • Review and evaluate three biological treatment alternatives, and select a preferred alternative using specific, weighted selection criteria and alternative rankings. • Prepare a Preliminary Engineering Repot which will summarize design criteria, and include a preliminary design based on the selected treatment process.

Dudek staff has provided excellent design services on the various elements of the City’s wastewater program and staff recommends that the City Council approve Task Order No. 4 under a Master Service Agreement with Dudek to complete Design Services on the MWWTP in the amount of $234,959.

Subject: Proposal for Engineering Services for Municipal Wastewater Treatment Plant Preliminary Design Dear Patrick Dobbins:

We are pleased to provide this proposal for engineering design services for the rehabilitation and upgrade to the Municipal Wastewater Treatment Facility (MWWTP). This proposal includes the evaluation and comparison of MWWTP process upgrades and evaluation of the interim rehabilitation projects required by the Regional Board.

We will document the results of these analyses and recommendations in a Preliminary Engineering Report (PER) The Dudek team presented within this proposal has the resources to perform all work required for each of the Project Tasks as included in the Project Scope of Work. We are proposing to utilize N2W Engineering to provide process analysis and modeling services as part of the project team. Those tasks to be completed by N2W are identified within the Scope of Services
Scope of Services
TASK 1 PROJECT MANAGEMENT
This task addresses the management responsibilities associated with proper scheduling review, budget control, invoice preparation and coordination with the City, its Program Manager, and the Dudek project team. We propose to submit monhtly progress reports. The task includes a Kick-off meeting (in-person), monthly progress meetings, (8 virtual), and a Draft PER review workshop (in-person).

TASK 2 PROCESS UPGRADE DESIGN DATA
Specific design data are required to support the preliminary design effort. Under Task 1.2, Dudek will collect site specific data related to projected wastewater flow to the MWWTP, as well as the influent wastewater characteristics and effluent discharge criteria. It is noted Dudek has compiled most of the needed information during conduct of previous work for the City, including design of the Industrial Wastewater Treatment Facility (IWTF). As a result, the following design data are projected to be derived.

Task 2.1 Flow & Solids Loading Data
Dudek will request recent flow and pertinent constituent concentration data over the last few years. It will be important to determine contributions of flow and loads from industrial dischargers, as these will be diverted to the Packet Pg. 91
Attachment: Dudek’s May 15, 2025 Proposal Letter (3316 : Resolution No. 2025-50 Task Order #4 Dudek Contract for WWTP Preliminary Design) TO: PATRICK DOBBINS

IWTF and away from the MWWTP. Dudek has compiled several years of data and will utilize the most recent requested information to determine more accurate design criteria for the future MWWTP upgrades project.

An analysis will be completed to determine future flows and loads anticipated by the City that will be treated at the MWWTP. These data can be taken from existing City documents (e.g., recent City Wastewater Master Plan) or can be developed as part of this project. These criteria will help ensure the upgraded MWWTP will serve the City in the short term and for the next several decades.

Task 2.2 Identification of Required Permits
Dudek will document anticipated regulatory agencies involved in the rehabilitation and upgrade of the MWWTP.

The preliminary list includes:

CEQA – Determination/document type will be based on project definition Regional Board/DDW – Updated discharge permit
AQMD – Required if City adds backup generators or large pump stations (> 1 MGD) TASK 3 PROCESS UPGRADE ALTERNATIVES ANALYSIS
Dudek assumes that the main upgrades at the MWWTP will be to the biological treatment process and will be aimed at improving BOD, TSS, and nitrogen removal. Other improvements may include upgrades to the headworks and the addition of flow equalization. Dudek assumes no additional treatment (e.g., tertiary filtration, disinfection, solids handling) will be required as part of this project.

Task 3.1 Biological Treatment Process Upgrade Alternatives (Up to 3 Alternatives) Dudek suggests that up to three (3) biological treatment alternatives will be evaluated. The evaluation will include effluent water quality goals and provide detailed process descriptions for each of the following alternatives. The three proposed alternatives to be considered are:

1. Sequenced lagoon aeration. This process utilizes a series of aerated lagoons to facilitate biological nutrient removal, with alternating cycles of aerobic and anoxic conditions to effectively reduce nitrogen levels. This approach is cost-effective and can handle varying flow rates, but typically requires a larger footprint and longer retention times compared to other methods.

2. Traditional oxidation ditch with anoxic tank. This process utilizes an oxidation ditch combined with an integral anoxic tank to promote biological nutrient removal through both nitrification and denitrification processes. This approach is proposed for its ability to provide consistent treatment efficiency, handle varying loads, and offer a smaller footprint compared to other alternatives. Aeration is provided by surface aerators.

3. Closed loop reactor. This process utilizes a deeper oxidation ditch with fine bubble diffused aeration and blowers that can be sequenced on and off to control nitrification/denitrification. This approach is proposed for its more compact design, higher treatment efficiency and operator control, and ability to effectively manage fluctuating flow rates and load variations.

Process modeling (BioWin/SUMO) Dudek will run process modeling software (e.g., BioWin) to simulate the performance of the three new wastewater treatment system alternatives. A calibrated model of the existing MWWTP will not be created. BioWin is a wastewater treatment process modeling tool designed to analyze and optimize the performance of wastewater treatment systems, ensuring accurate predictions and efficient system Packet Pg. 92

design. This approach allows for the optimization of critical design parameters, such as footprint, hydraulic retention time, aeration requirements, chemical dosing etc., ensuring that each system operates at peak efficiency.

Conceptual layouts and footprint requirements Dudek will develop conceptual layouts for each (up to 3) alternative processesto ensure the design is both efficient and adaptable, aligning with the project’s specific needs.

Lifecycle costs (capital and O&M). Dudek will assess the lifecycle costs, including both capital, and operations & maintenance (O&M) cost estimates, to provide a comprehensive understanding of the long-term financial implications of the project. This assessment will involve evaluating initial capital costs, such as design, construction, and installation, as well as ongoing O&M costs, including labor, maintenance, energy, and other operational expenses.

Non-monetary considerations (ease of operation, level of control, ability to treat peak flow/load, odor potential, reuse potential, etc.). Dudek will assess non-monetary factors, such as ease of operation, level of control, peak flow/load treatment capabilities, odor potential, and reuse potential. This will help identify the most feasible and effective alternative that aligns with the city’s needs and requirements.

Task 3.2 Process Upgrade Preferred Alternative
Through collaborative efforts with the City, Dudek will develop the Process Upgrade Selection Criteria and Ranking, including the creation of ranking parameters and weighting factors. This will be followed by process ranking and selection using a paired comparison analysis to identify efficient and reliable wastewater treatment solutions. The paired analysis facilitates deliberate discussion and evaluation of alternatives, focusing on assigning relative weights for the developed criteria for each alternative. In a workshop format, input from critical City staff will be captured to define scores for each alternative.

For example, if criterion A (applications), as shown in Table 1, is compared to criterion B (constructability) and B is found to be more important, B will be noted in the weighting table. Each alternative was given an absolute score of 1 to 5 per criterion. These scores were multiplied by the relative weight of the respective criterion and then summed for each technology.

TASK 4 CEQA COMPLIANCE
Task 4.1 Notice of Exemption
The City of Gonzales is required to comply with the California Environmental Quality Act (CEQA) when considering approval of a “project.” The PER process will identify and evaluate feasible treatment alternatives to upgrade the MWWTP, identify a preferred alternative, and identify next steps for design, funding, and construction. Acceptance of the PER by the City will not constitute “approval” of the MWWTP Upgrades or commit the City to a particular course of action. Therefore, the PER should be considered a “feasibility and planning” study within the meaning Guidelines Section 15262, and is exempt from CEQA review at this time.

Subsequent planning and design (including 30% design), funding approval, and release of bid documents will be subject to CEQA review. In addition, if Clean Water State Revolving Fund financing is sought for final design and construction of the MWWTP Upgrades, the City must also demonstrate compliance with applicable federal environmental regulations (also known as “federal crosscutters”). Appropriate environmental assessments will be prepared as part of that process.

Deliverables: Notice of Exemption
TASK 4 PRELIMINARY ENGINEERING REPORT PREPARATION (10% DESIGN) Dudek will prepare a preliminary engineering report (PER). The PER will define the selected MWWTP process upgrades and rehabilitation projects. It is anticipated that the Regional Board will collaborate with Dudek and the City of Gonzales to develop the PER.

STAFF REPORT
TO: Honorable Mayor Rios and City Council
DATE: July 21, 2025
FROM: Jason Muscio, Fire Chief
THROUGH: Carmen Gil, City Manager
SUBJECT: Resolution No. 2025-54 Dispensing with Bidding Procedures and Authorizing the Purchase of a Type 1 Fire Engine

RECOMMENDATION
Staff recommends that the City Council consider and adopt Resolution No. 2025-54, A Resolution of the City Council of the City of Gonzales Dispensing With Bidding Procedures Pursuant to Gonzales City Code Section 3.16.050 and Authorizing The Purchase of a New Type 1 Fire Engine From Fire Apparatus Solutions in an Amount Not to Exceed $750,000.

BACKGROUND
The City of Gonzales Fire Department provides all-risk emergency response to the City of Gonzales and the Gonzales Rural Fire Protection District. The Type 1 Fire Engine is the backbone of the Fire Department’s fleet, responding to all types of emergency and non-emergency calls for service, with the exception of wild land fire incidents. The Fire Department currently has two Type 1 fire engines; Engine 8111 is 18 years old and Engine 8112 is 22 years old. Both have been plagued with breakdowns resulting in costly repairs and have left the fire department without a Type 1 engine available several times in the last few years. In 2014 the purchase was intended to be a stop-gap measure to allow the fire department to continue to Fire Chief advised the City Council of the need for an apparatus replacement program to replace the aging fleet, however funding for the program was unavailable. In 2021 a used Type 1 engine was purchased from a neighboring fire department after it was decommissioned due to age. This provided service until funding could be secured for a new engine. This engine is still in service but frequently is in need of costly repairs; totaling more than $28,000 since it was purchased. Staff has submitted multiple applications to the Assistance to Firefighters Grant program funded by the Department of Homeland Security through FEMA every year since 2014, but all grant applications have been denied. Through conversations and requests to County staff the City was encouraged to apply for a portion of the County’s AGENDA
ITEM
16 Packet Pg. 97
Community Development Block Grant (CDBG) funds, and was awarded $630,000 towards the purchase of a new fire engine.

REVIEW AND ANALYSIS
With the $630,000 in funding available, staff began searching for a vendor that could supply a Type 1 engine that meets the needs of the fire department, fits within the budget, and could be delivered in the shortest amount of time possible. Several vendors were contacted but none of them could provide an engine for the amount of funds available. Additionally, all vendors had a projected delivery time of 18-24 months. The Chief learned of a vendor named Fire Apparatus Solutions that builds production Fire Apparatus with a projected delivery time of 3-6 months, and thereafter requested a proposal . The price came in at $750,000, which is $120,000 more than the funding awarded by the County’s CDBG program.

The City Manager requested the remaining funding be provided from Measure K, and that request was approved by the Measure K Committee and by the City Council at the meeting on June 16th.

Section 3.16.050 of the Gonzales City Code (“GCC”) provides that all purchases of supplies and equipment shall be by competitive bid procedures unless an exception applies. In the instant case, Staff believes that two such bidding exceptions apply. First, Section 3.16.050 A.2. provides an exception to the bidding requirements for the purchase of equipment and supplies when an “emergency” (defined in part as a breakdown in machinery or an essential service which requires the immediate purchase of supplies or services to protect the public health, welfare and safety) arises. As was previously noted, the lack of an operable Type 1 Engine represents a serious and significant threat to the Fire Department’s ability to provide services necessary to protect the health, welfare and safety of the City and District’s residents and businesses and as such, Staff believes the condition of the Fire Department’s current Type 1 engines qualifies as such an emergency. Secondly, the engine in question is only available within the City’s price range and need for expedited delivery from a single vendor, and thus falls with Exception 3.16.050 A.3, “when the equipment can be obtained from only one vendor.” In light of the foregoing, the Council is being asked to consider the adoption of a resolution dispensing with formal bidding requirements and authorizing the purchase of a Type I engine from Fire Apparatus Solutions.

Explain: This project supports our vision by providing for safe and effective emergency response by the Fire Department.

Explain: See Vision above.

ALTERNATIVES
Do not adopt the Resolution. This action is not recommended as this will leave the Fire Department without a reliable Type 1 Engine and could compromise the Fire Department’s ability to provide fire suppression services and respond to life and property threatening emergencies.

BUDGET IMPACT
This purchase will be funded with $630,000 in grant funding from the County’s CDBG program and an additional $120,000 in funds from Measure K.

CONCLUSION
Staff recommends that the City Council consider and adopt Resolution No. 2025-54, A Resolution of the City Council of the City of Gonzales Dispensing with Bidding Procedures Pursuant to Gonzales City Code Section 3.16.050 and Authorizing the Purchase of a Type 1 Fire Engine From Fire Apparatus Solutions for an Amount Not to Exceed $750,000.

STAFF REPORT
TO: Honorable Mayor Rios and City Council
DATE: July 21, 2025
FROM: Patrick Dobbins, Public Works Director/City Engineer THROUGH: Carmen Gil, City Manager
SUBJECT: Traffic Calming Policy

RECOMMENDATION
It is recommended that the City Council receive a draft Traffic Calming Policy and provide direction to staff.

BACKGROUND
This report is in follow-up to staff’s presentation on the development of a Traffic Calming Policy at the May 5, 2025 Council meeting.

As an overview, a Traffic Calming Policy will provide the process to review and consider resident’s requests and “tool kit” of physical and other traffic control adjustments. This provides a resource for City staff to address residents’ concerns with unsafe vehicles in a written process and lists the various traffic measures that could be put in place to improve safety for pedestrians and cyclists.

The current approach to handling resident requests regarding unsafe driver behavior is:

1. A resident contacts City Hall to report inappropriate driver behavior they would like addressed.

Concerns include excessive speed, unsafe driving or pedestrian activity (ie, by schools).

2. Staff discusses the request with the Police Chief and request they monitor and perform traffic enforcement.

3. Public Works staff visit the site to determine what, if any, traffic measures could be implemented to address the issue.

AGENDA
ITEM
18 Packet Pg. 161

4. Discuss outcome of the review with the resident including next steps such as increased traffic enforcement and/or installation of traffic control measures.

Having a Traffic Calming Policy will provide City staff and residents with a written procedure for reviewing resident’s requests and list of appropriate traffic calming measures.

REVIEW & ANALYSIS
After the May 2025 Council meeting, staff engaged TL Engineering to develop a Traffic Calming Policy, and their scope of work was:

1. Review traffic calming measures from Caltrans and other public agencies (ie, cities of Salinas and Monterey) that should be incorporated into a “menu” of traffic calming measures relevant to Gonzales.

2. Prepare a draft Traffic Calming Policy for City review (copy attached to this staff report).

3. Prepare a final Traffic Calming Policy based on feedback from other City departments, the City Council and interested residents.

Staff will step through the highlights of the attached draft Traffic Calming Policy at the Council meeting and staff is interested in feedback and direction from the City Council.

Explain Recommendation and How it Supports the Vision
Gonzales will continue to be a safe, clean, family-friendly community, diverse in its heritage, and committed to working collaboratively to preserve and retain its small town charm.

Explain: Establishing a Traffic Calming Program helps residents understand the process to address speeding cars in their neighbor.

Strong fiscal policies allow us to provide appropriate infrastructure for:
• Public Safety X Yes No N/A
• Housing Yes X No N/A
• Recreation Yes X No N/A
• Environment Yes X No N/A
• Education Yes No X N/A
Packet Pg. 162

ALTERNATIVES
The Council could direct staff to develop other alternatives for addressing unsafe driver behavior in residential neighborhoods.

BUDGET IMPACT
Blue Zones has provided full funding for the preparation of the Traffic Calming Policy in an amount not to exceed $11,000.

CONCLUSION
It is recommended that the City Council receive a draft Traffic Calming Policy and provide direction to staff.

CITY OF GONZALES

DRAFT TRAFFIC CALMING POLICY
JUNE 2025
Packet Pg. 164 Attachment: Draft Traffic Calming Policy (3319 : Traffic Calming Policy) 3769.docx

TRAFFIC CALMING POLICY

INTRODUCTION
Traffic calming is a method of employing specific measures to address speeding and other unacceptable driver behavior on local city streets. Requests from residents to address speeding vehicles on residential roadways occur on a regular basis. This policy was developed to establish the following:

1. The procedure to formally evaluate requests. This includes verification of the issue, a site visit to observe the existing conditions, evaluate it against set criteria, rank it against other known locations in the City, provide recommendations to address the issue, and determine the effectiveness of the recommendations that are implemented.

2. Criteria for the review of traffic calming request to determine further analysis and validation of safety problems and potential traffic calming measures.

3. The objectives and general application of traffic calming measures.

PROCESS AND REQUIREMENTS
The city places a high importance on issues related to Traffic Safety. We want residents to have a clear understanding of how to report these issues. If a resident feels that there is a speeding problem on their local residential street, they should start by reporting the problem to the Police Department.

If determined to be a valid complaint, the Police Department may increase traffic patrols and enforcement for a limited period. If this does not provide the satisfaction sought by the resident who submitted the concern, then that resident may begin the process for requesting the installation of appropriate traffic calming measure(s).

The most common types of traffic calming measures that the city will consider are those included in Category A and Category D listed in the Traffic Calming Categories in this document. Simpler and less intrusive measures will be considered first. More complex and involved traffic calming measures may require a traffic engineering analysis to determine a viable option. However, any roadway speed reduction measure or physical modification sought via this process will ultimately require the approval of the Public Works Director.

Packet Pg. 165 Attachment: Draft Traffic Calming Policy (3319 : Traffic Calming Policy) 3769.docx
Step 1 - Speed Limit Reduction Request Submission
Speed Limit Reduction Requests should not be submitted unless the requestor has first advised the Police Department of their concern and police interventions have not alleviated the issue.

A resident interested in requesting that a speed limit reduction be instituted for their local street should meet with the Public Works Director to discuss their concern. To formally consider the request, the resident must do the following:

1. Submit a Request for Traffic Calming Request Form to the Public Works Department

2. Submit a Neighborhood Petition Form to the Public Works Department containing the signatures of 80% of the residents in the affected area.

Eligible signees include:
a. Those residents of the street identified for speed reduction (if the street is of significant length, additional consideration will be given to determine if only a portion of the street is anaffected area), b. Residents on adjoining streets whose sole or primary access is the street identified for calming.

The petition shall identify a resident who will serve as the primary point of contact with the City. If the Petitioner is not able to obtain 80% of the required signatures, the Public Works Department may either cease any further action for lack of interest on the part of the affected residents, or, at its discretion, the city may continue to move the application on to the next step if it is determined that the concern is a significant problem.

After the city verifies that the petition has met the criteria set forth above, pertinent traffic data will be collected to further assess the need for traffic calming measures. The data to be collected and analyzed may include traffic volumes, speed data, traffic patterns, existing conditions in the area such as stopping sight distance, and accident history documents. The findings will then be reviewed and assessed by Public Works staff.

Step 2 - Data Collection, Evaluation, and Recommendation Upon advancement from Step 1 to Step 2, a radar data collection board will be installed on the roadway at issue. This board will be in place for two weeks. During this time, Public Works staff will review and evaluate the traffic data collected.

Packet Pg. 166 Attachment: Draft Traffic Calming Policy (3319 : Traffic Calming Policy) 3769.docx
If the data meets the minimum criteria as set forth below, Public Works staff may recommend Category A traffic calming measures as appropriate. City staff may also conclude that no further intervention is necessary. A letter/email will be sent to the Applicant indicating the City's determination.

Requests must have a point total greater than 0 to be further evaluated for any intervention beyond Category A traffic calming measures. However, Public Works staff may, at its discretion, continue to move the application on to the next step if it is determined that there are other factors involved that indicate the concern is a significant safety hazard to the general public.

Each valid request will be evaluated based on the criteria shown below. If multiple potential projects are being considered, they will be ranked by their score to help prioritize the order in which they are completed in relation to available resources, funds and anticipated benefits.

Traffic Calming Measure Criteria
Criteria 1 - Traffic Speeds
The traffic speed criteria will be measured by the amount the 85% speed is above the posted speed limit. The 85th percentile speed is defined as: the speed at or below which 85 percent of all vehicles are observed to travel under free-flowing conditions past amonitored point. Another way to consider this is the speed at which only 15% of traffic violate on average.

Amount the 85% speed is above the posted limit:
1-5 mph 6-10 mph 11-15 mph 16+ mph
0 points 3 points 5 points 7 points
Example: If the speed limit of a road were 25mph and 85% of drivers were going 33 mph, this application would receive 3 points, because the 85% speed was 8 mph over the speed limit.

Criteria 2 - Traffic Volumes
Average daily traffic (ADT) measured in vehicles per day (VPD) <400 vpd 401-1000 vpd 1001-2000 vpd 2001+ vpd
0 points 2 points 4 points 6 points
Criteria 3 - Additional Considerations
Packet Pg. 167 Attachment: Draft Traffic Calming Policy (3319 : Traffic Calming Policy) 3769.docx
Other Considerations – (Only become a factor when the two categories above exceed a total of 5 points)
➢ School zone – 4 points
➢ Significant Pedestrian Traffic Year-Round – 3 points
➢ More than three (3) accidents per year for each of the past three (3) years - 3 points
➢ Significant Pedestrian Traffic During Summer – 2 points ➢ No sidewalk on either side of the street – 1 point
Step 3 - Follow-up Data Collection
If one or more of the Category A traffic calming measures are implemented, the City will wait approximately six weeks before collecting additional traffic data to determine the effectiveness of the implemented measures.

Step 4 - City Data Review, Evaluation, and Recommendation The City will review the follow-up data. If the measures were successful in addressing the concern, then the traffic calming process will end at this point.

Step 5 - Neighborhood Support for Category D Measures
If the City determines that Category A measures were not successful, the issue may consider the installation of Category D measures. Funding for the design and construction of the proposed improvements will need to be available before proceeding forward with this step of the process.

For Category D measures (i.e. more permanent measures), the Applicant must submit signatures of at least 80% of residents within the subject area to show support for the requested traffic calming measure (Form 2).

Step 6 - Neighborhood Site Meeting and City Review
A neighborhood site meeting will be organized by the City and held to present proposed Category D measures, which will involve physical modifications to the roadway/ intersection. This informational meeting will provide a public forum to solicit comments regarding the proposed project improvements.

The City will review feedback presented at the neighborhood site meeting and determine if design and construction of the proposed recommendations should be pursued.

Packet Pg. 168 Attachment: Draft Traffic Calming Policy (3319 : Traffic Calming Policy) 3769.docx
Step 7 - Design and Construction
Actual implementation of Category D measures will be dependent on a project’s point ranking as determined in Step 2, and as compared to the point ranking from other traffic calming projects and available funding.

Once funding for a specific project is in place, design and construction of the proposed improvements will proceed.

Step 8 - Post-Construction Evaluation
After the Category D measures have been in place for approximately six months, additional data may be collected to determine their effectiveness.

Once they are installed, measures shall remain for at least 3 years. If the residents of a neighborhood collectively decide that the installed traffic calming measures are no longer desired following the first three years after construction is completed, a process similar to that used for implementation of Category D measures will be followed. This includes demonstrating public support for the removal of such measures by completion of a petition signed by 80% of the residents within the defined zone of influence, and evaluation by the Public Works department.

Appeal Process
Owners and/or residents abutting a street within the defined zone of influence may appeal a city traffic calming recommendation by filing a written notice of appeal with the Public Works Director. Written appeals must be received within 30 days of the decision.

Appeals will be heard by the Public Works Director, who has authority to make all final decisions regarding traffic calming policies.

The only issues that may be raised on an appeal are:

1. Whether there is a public justification for the change (public justification defined as meeting the policy’s volume and speed criteria).

2. Whether the method chosen to gauge neighborhood consensus was properly completed as required by thetraffic calming policy.

BACKGROUND
By law, the City is required to schedule annual hearings to set assessments to pay for the costs and expenses of operating, maintaining and servicing public improvements and facilities located within each of the assessment districts that have been previously established by the City. The City’s Designated Engineer of Work, Harris & Associates (“Harris”), has prepared Engineer’s Reports containing information about each of the assessment districts, the improvements to be served through the collection of the assessments, and the actual amount of each assessment on each impacted parcel. Copies of the Preliminary Engineer’s Reports were filed with the City Clerk on or about May 23, 2025 and were and are available for review upon request.

REVIEW & ANALYSIS
On June 2, 2025, the City Council approved Resolutions 2025-33 through 2025-40 providing preliminary approval of the Engineer’s Reports for each of the involved districts and setting the public hearing date for consideration of the assessments for each district as July 21, 2025. Public notice for the hearing for each of the district resolutions was published on July 2, 2025. The attached resolutions, if approved, will provide final approval of the Engineer’s Report for each district, authorize the levy and collection of said assessments, and order the maintenance, operating and/or servicing of the improvements identified in each Engineer’s Report. Labor, overhead and staff costs are also included in the proposed assessments.

The applicable CPI to be applied to all but the California Breeze Districts has been determined to be

1.270% and has been used in finalizing all assessment calculations.

Consideration and action on the eight (8) resolutions should only be taken after the public hearing for each district (or groupings of districts) has been completed. Once the resolutions have been approved, Staff has been directed to forward the documents to the County so that the assessments can be paid through the property tax roll system.

The assessments set forth below have been identified for each of the districts for Fiscal Year 2025-2026.

Details on how the fees were calculated are included in each respective Engineer’s Report. As noted above, Harris is recommending that the City adjust the maximum assessments (the highest assessment that could be levied in any given year during the life of a district) for the Canyon Creek, Cipriani, and Industrial Park Districts by the CPI for the previous year, established at 1.270%. The California Breeze Benefit Assessment Districts were not adopted with provisions that allow for annual CPI adjustments.

Packet Pg. 178
There is no proposed change to the assessments from last year for any of the California Breeze or Canyon Creek assessment districts. In the Cipriani districts, the Parks and Open Spaces assessment will remain the same as the assessment set in FY 2024-2025, while in the Benefit Assessment Districts there will be no change to the assessments for Lots 1-7 and a decrease in the assessment from $750 to $678 for Lots 8- 66 and 70-75. In the Industrial Park districts, assessments in the Parks and Landscape District will increase from $440 to $575 per acre, while in the Benefit Assessment District there will be an increase from $1305 to $1,500 per acre. The new assessments have been set to adequately address maintenance, labor and material costs and project costs in the coming fiscal year. The Industrial districts are impacted by an upcoming sidewalk repair project.

Note is made of the fact that once again, fiscal costs in the California Breeze districts will exceed allowable maximum assessments that cannot be increased.

The fees for 2025-2026 will be as follows:

California Breeze Benefit Assessment District No. 1 - Per House $187.00 No. 1 - Commercial $141.14
No. 2 - Per House $185.34

The budget summary also shows the estimated fund balance and the projected fund reserves that will be available and may be required based upon the estimated expenditures and assessment revenue.

Beginning in Fiscal Year 2021-22, the City combined the budget page to show only the total expenditures, revenues, etc. for the District, rather than showing the expenditures and revenues by individual phases of the development, as had been done in previous years.

11 PART IV – METHOD OF APPORTIONMENT
Method of Apportionment
GENERAL PROVISIONS – SPECIAL BENEFIT
Pursuant to the 1982 Act and Article XIIID, all parcels that receive a special benefit conferred upon them as a result of the maintenance and operation of improvements and services shall be identified, and the proportionate special benefit derived by each identified parcel shall be determined in relationship to the entire costs of the maintenance and operation of improvements. Chapter 6.4, Division 2, Title 5, of the Government Code, the Benefit Assessment Act of 1982, permits the establishment of assessment districts by Cities for the purpose of providing certain public improvements that include street maintenance.

Section 54711 of the Benefit Assessment Act of 1982 requires that maintenance assessments be levied according to benefit rather than according to assessed value. This Section states:
(a) No benefit assessment shall be levied pursuant to this chapter unless it meets all of the following requirements:
(1) The amount of the assessment imposed on any parcel of property shall be related to the benefit to the parcel which will be derived from the provision of the service. Except as provided in subdivision (d) or (e) of Section 54715, in the case of a benefit assessment for flood control services, the benefit must be determined on the basis of the proportionate storm water runoff from each parcel. In the case of an assessment for the maintenance of streets, roads, or highways, the benefit shall be in proportion to the estimated traffic volume to be generated by each parcel assessed, or by any other reasonable basis as determined by the legislative body. (2) The annual aggregate amount of the assessment shall not exceed the estimated annual cost of providing the service.
(3) The revenue derived from the assessment shall not be used to pay the cost of any service other than the service for which the assessment was levied.

The 1982 Act also permits the designation of zones of benefit within any individual assessment district.

Article XIIID, Section 4(a) of the California Constitution limits the amount of any assessment to the proportional special benefit conferred on the property. Article XIIID also provides that publicly owned properties must be assessed unless there is clear and convincing evidence that those properties receive no special benefit from the assessment. Exempted from the assessment would be the areas of public streets, public avenues, public lanes, public roads, public drives, public courts, public alleys, public easements and rights-of-ways, public greenbelts and public parkways.

The net amount to be assessed may be apportioned by any formula or method which fairly distributes the net amount among all assessable lots or parcels. The costs for the operation, maintenance and servicing of the improvements maintained for each zone are apportioned in accordance with the methodology which was established by the City Council upon formation of the Districts.

12 GENERAL PROVISIONS – GENERAL BENEFIT
Although the improvements may include public streets and drainage facilities that connect to similar facilities outside the Districts’ boundaries, the construction, maintenance and operation of these improvements are only necessary for the development of properties within the Districts. As such, these improvements were not required nor necessarily desired by any properties or developments outside the Districts’ boundaries and any public access or use of the improvements by others is incidental. Therefore, it has been determined that the ongoing maintenance, servicing and operation of the District’s improvements provide no measurable general benefit to properties outside the Districts or to the public at large, but clearly provide distinct and special benefits to properties within the Districts.

ASSESSMENT METHODOLOGY
Method of Assessment – BAD Phase 1
All costs associated with the maintenance and operation of BAD Phase 1 improvements including Engineer’s Report, printing and advertising of assessment notices, County collection fees and legal fees shall be spread to all parcels on a pro-rata development unit basis.

One hundred percent (100%) of all costs associated with the maintenance and operation of the BAD 1 improvements including incidentals and appurtenances is of special benefit to parcels within the district and shall be spread to all developed parcels within the District on a pro-rata development unit basis. Developed parcels are those parcels on which final map has been filed. Said parcels are also abutting or obtaining primary access from a public street.

Undeveloped parcels without an approved tentative Map shall be assessed for zero (0) the total of potential development units.

Factored development unit calculations for residential areas are as follows: Low Density residential = 1.0 Equivalent Dwelling Unit (EDU)
Office and commercial use is assessed based on an equivalent basis of 3.8 EDUs per acre using the gross parcel area. The resulting parcel A area, as shown on the assessment diagram, is assessed at 13.6 EDUs.

Monterey County charges 0.25% of the levy amount for collection for administration of the District.

Proposed and existing community or neighborhood park lands are of special benefit to parcels within Phase 1, Phase 2, and Phase 3, and are not assessed (Parcels B and C), as shown on the assessment diagram. The detention pond, Parcel B, which is for the exclusive use of this development, is not assessed.

The neighborhood park, Parcel C, was a development requirement, and was constructed by this development.

The assessment costs for the operation; maintenance and servicing of the improvements are apportioned in accordance with the methodology which was established by the City Council upon formation of the District. It was determined at that time that the most equitable method for spreading the estimated benefit received by each parcel in BAD Phase 1 should be based on the EDU method. One parcel within the boundaries of BAD Phase 1 is designated under a commercial land use. While the residential parcels will be assessed on the basis of one EDU per parcel, the commercial parcel will be assessed four (4) EDU per acre. The formula is as follows:

Items included in this category include salaries, overtime, Workers's Comp, Retirement & Insurance (Life, Health & FICA).

Reserve collections from the Budget page are lower than shown in Appendix D because the current assessment rate cannot support higher collection amounts.

The California Breeze Landscape Maintenance District has 3 separate phases. The assessment amounts for each are as follows:

Beginning in Fiscal Year 2017/18, a Capital Reserve Fund was established for the District. The amounts collected for the current year, if any, are shown in the Budget table above. The Beginning Balances for the Capital Reserve Funds were initially transferred from the Operating Reserve Fund. The amounts in the Operating Reserve Funds should be sufficient to pay for the operations and maintenance costs for the first six months of the fiscal year. Any addition to or (reduction from) the Capital Reserve Fund will be shown and calculated annually in the same manner as the Operating Reserve Fund. Also, any funds collected for Capital Reserve, and not spent, will be included in the ending Capital Reserve fund balance the following year. Currently, the District Assessments do not have the capacity to collect any reserve amounts. Assessments must be increased in order to begin collecting funds for Capital improvement projects.

Expenditures for the percolation pond for Phase I & II & commercial serves only these areas. The percolation pond for Phase III only serves Phase III and thus is assessed separately.

The cost for capital replacement reserve for the items shown in Appendix D, Capital Reserve Replacement Study which was completed in FY 2017/18. Tree replacement and street repair was added to the Budget for 2019/20.

10 PART IV – METHOD OF APPORTIONMENT
Method of Apportionment

GENERAL PROVISIONS
The 1972 Act permits the establishment of assessment districts by agencies for the purpose of providing certain public improvements which include the construction, maintenance and servicing of public lights, landscaping and appurtenant facilities. The 1972 Act further requires that the cost of these improvements be levied according to benefit rather than assessed value:
“The net amount to be assessed upon lands within an assessment district may be apportioned by any formula or method which fairly distributes the net amount among all assessable lots or parcels in proportion to the estimated benefits to be received by each such lot or parcel from the improvements.” The formula used for calculating assessments in the District therefore reflects the composition of the parcels, and the improvements and services provided, to fairly apportion the costs based on estimated benefit to each parcel.

BENEFIT ANALYSIS
Each of the improvements have been carefully reviewed by the City and the corresponding assessments have been proportionately spread to each parcel based on improvements as determined at the time the District was established.

General Benefits
The improvements within this District are a direct result of property development within the District and would otherwise not be required or necessary. Developers typically install landscape improvements to enhance the marketability and value of properties within the development and/or as conditions of development. In either case, the improvements are clearly installed for the benefit of the properties developed and not for the benefit of surrounding properties.

Although many landscape improvements (by virtue of their location), may be visible to surrounding properties or to the public at large, any benefit to surrounding properties is incidental and cannot be considered a direct and special benefit to those properties. Therefore, it has been determined that the improvements within this District and the ongoing operation and maintenance of those improvements are clearly a direct and special benefit to properties within the District.

Unless otherwise noted, these improvements provide no measurable general benefit to properties outside the District or to the public at large.

California Breeze Parks and Open Spaces
City of Gonzales
Fiscal Year 2025-26

11 Special Benefits
The method of apportionment (assessment methodology) approved at the time the District was formed is based on the premise that each of the assessed parcels within the District receives benefit from the improvements maintained and financed by annual assessments. Specifically, the assessments are for the maintenance of local landscape improvements installed as part of the original improvement. The desirability and safety of properties within the District are enhanced by the presence of well-maintained landscaping. The special benefits associated with the local landscaping improvements are specifically:
• Enhanced desirability of properties through association with the improvements. • Improved aesthetic appeal of properties within the District providing a positive representation of the area.
• Enhanced adaptation of the urban environment within the natural environment from adequate green space and landscaping.
• Increased sense of pride in ownership of property within the District resulting from wellmaintained improvements associated with the properties.

All of the preceding special benefits contribute to a specific enhancement and desirability of each of the assessed parcels within the District.

The District is assessed on the basis of total development units generated for the costs of the maintenance and operation of the District including incidentals and appurtenances and shall include all the costs of maintaining and/or operating the improvements described herein.

All costs associated with the maintenance and operation of the District improvements including Engineer’s Report, printing and advertising of assessment notices, County collection fees, and legal fees shall be spread to all parcels on a pro-rata development unit basis.

One hundred percent (100%) of all costs associated with the maintenance and operation of the California Breeze Parks and Open Spaces (Annexation of California Breeze Phase III) improvements including incidentals and appurtenances is of special benefit to parcels within the district and shall be spread to all parcels within the District on a development unit basis. The park was constructed as a requirement of this development to serve the 331- lot subdivision development.

12 Developed parcels are those parcels on which final subdivision map has been filed, and which can obtain building permits as of the Public Hearing date. Said parcels are also abutting or obtaining primary access from a public street.

Factored development unit calculations are as follows: Low Density Residential = 1.0 Equivalent Dwelling Unit (EDU); Office and commercial use is assessed based on an equivalent basis of 3.8 EDUs per acre using the gross parcel area. The resulting parcel “A” area, as shown on the assessment diagram, is assessed at 13.6 EDUs. There is no assessment for park maintenance for the Office and commercial use parcels.

Monterey County charges 0.25% of the levy amount for collection for administration of the District.

Parcels owned by the City of Gonzales are not assessed, which include Parcel “A”, right-of-way reservation, rightof-way for a future grade separation structure, and Parcel “B”, the retention pond site, which was constructed to serve this development. These parcels receive no benefit from the maintenance and servicing of the improvements.

The District assessments have no annual escalation factor, meaning the assessment rates are fixed. In order for the assessments to be increased, the property owners must approve the increase through a Proposition 218 ballot procedure.

The amounts collected for the current year, if any, are shown in the Budget table. The Beginning Balance for the Capital Reserve Fund is transferred from the Operating Reserve Fund. The amounts in the Operating Reserve Fund should be sufficient to pay for the operations and maintenance costs for the first six months of the fiscal year, approximately 50% of the total Reserve Balance. Any additional funds over and above the 50% to the Operating Reserve are shown in the Capital Reserve Fun balance. Any addition to or (reduction from) the Capital Reserve Fund will be shown and calculated annually in the same manner as the Operating Reserve Fund. Also, any funds collected for Capital Reserve and not spent, will be included in the ending Capital Reserve fund balance the following year.

Regularly scheduled street sweeping services are performed by Franchise Waste Hauler. Any services above and beyond said regularly scheduled maintenance will be billed to and paid for by the District.

For Capital Replacement Reserve items shown above, some of the costs are from the original Engineer's Report for the districts prepared in 1995. The costs for these items are shown below in 1995 dollars and escalated to year-end 2016 dollars by the increase in ENR-CCI for San Francisco for the same period. Details regarding capital replacement costs for the other items shown above are provided in Appendix D.

ASSESSMENT METHODOLOGY
Method of Assessment – BAD Phase 1
One hundred percent (100%) of all costs associated with the maintenance and operation of the BAD 1 improvements including incidentals and appurtenances is of special benefit to parcels within the district and shall be spread to all developed parcels within the District on a pro-rata development unit basis. Developed parcels are those parcels on which final map has been filed. Said parcels are also abutting or obtaining primary access from a public street.

Undeveloped parcels without an approved tentative Map shall be assessed for zero (0) the total of potential development units.

Factored development unit calculations for residential areas are as follows: Low Density residential = 1.0 Equivalent Dwelling Unit (EDU)
Monterey County charges 0.25% of the levy amount for collection for administration of the District.

The assessment costs for the operation; maintenance and servicing of the improvements are apportioned in accordance with the methodology which was established by the City Council upon formation of the District. It was determined at that time that the most equitable method for spreading the estimated benefit received by each parcel in BAD 1 should be based on the EDU method. One parcel within the boundaries of BAD 1 is designated under a commercial land use. While the residential parcels will be assessed on the basis of one EDU per parcel, the commercial parcel will be assessed four (4) EDU per acre. The formula is as follows:

11 PART IV – METHOD OF APPORTIONMENT
Method of Apportionment

GENERAL PROVISIONS
The 1972 Act permits the establishment of assessment districts by agencies for the purpose of providing certain public improvements including the construction, maintenance and servicing of public lights, landscaping and appurtenant facilities. The 1972 Act further requires that the cost of these improvements be levied according to benefit rather than assessed value:
“The net amount to be assessed upon lands within an assessment district may be apportioned by any formula or method which fairly distributes the net amount among all assessable lots or parcels in proportion to the estimated benefits to be received by each such lot or parcel from the improvements.” The formula used for calculating assessments in the Districts therefore reflects the composition of the parcels, and the improvements and services provided, to fairly apportion the costs based on estimated benefit to each parcel. In addition, pursuant to Prop 218:
“No assessment shall be imposed on any parcel which exceeds the reasonable cost of the proportional special benefit conferred on that parcel. Only special benefits are assessable and an agency shall separate the general benefits from the special benefits conferred on a parcel.”

General Benefits
The improvements within these Districts are a direct result of property development within the Districts and would otherwise not be required or necessary. Developers typically install landscape improvements to enhance the marketability and value of properties within the development and/or as conditions of development. In either case, the improvements are clearly installed for the benefit of the properties developed and not for the benefit of surrounding properties.

Although many landscape improvements (by virtue of their location), may be visible to surrounding properties or to the public at large, any benefit to surrounding properties is incidental and cannot be considered a direct and special benefit to those properties. Therefore, it has been determined that the improvements within these Districts and the ongoing operation and maintenance of those improvements are clearly a direct and special benefit to properties within the Districts. Unless otherwise noted, these improvements provide no measurable general benefit to properties outside the Districts or to the public at large.

12 Special Benefits
The method of apportionment (assessment methodology) approved at the time the Districts were formed is based on the premise that each of the assessed parcels within the Districts receives benefit from the improvements maintained and financed by annual assessments.

Specifically, the assessments are for the maintenance of local landscape improvements installed as part of the original improvement. The desirability and safety of properties within the Districts are enhanced by the presence of wellmaintained landscaping. The special benefits associated with the local landscaping improvements are specifically:
• Enhanced desirability of properties through association with the improvements. • Improved aesthetic appeal of properties within the District providing a positive representation of the area.
• Enhanced adaptation of the urban environment within the natural environment from adequate green space and landscaping.
• Increased sense of pride in ownership of property within the District resulting from wellmaintained improvements associated with the properties.

All of the preceding special benefits contribute to a specific enhancement and desirability of each of the assessed parcels within the District.

Non-Assessable Parcels
Within the boundaries of the District, there may be properties that are considered to receive no special benefit from the improvements and services provided and are therefore not assessed.

ASSESSMENT METHODOLOGY
The Districts are assessed, on the basis of total development units generated, for the maintenance and operation of the Canyon Creek Parks and Open Spaces Maintenance Assessment Districts 1, 2 & 3 including incidentals and appurtenances and shall include all the costs of maintaining and/or operating the improvements described herein.

All costs associated with the maintenance and operation of the Canyon Creek Parks and Open Spaces Maintenance Assessment District No. 1 improvements including Engineer’s Report, printing and advertising of assessment notices and legal fees shall be spread to all parcels on a pro-rata development unit basis.

Section 22573 of the Lighting and Landscaping Act of 1972 requires that maintenance assessments be levied according to benefit rather than according to assessed value. In addition, Article XIIID, Section 4(a) of the California Constitution limits the amount of any assessment to the proportional special benefit conferred on the property.

13 Article XIIID provides that publicly owned properties must be assessed unless there is clear and convincing evidence that those properties receive no special benefit from the assessment. Excepted from the assessment would be the areas of public streets, public avenues, public lanes, public roads, public drives, public courts, public alleys, public easements and rights-of-way, public greenbelts and public parkways, and that portion of public property that is not developed and used for business purposes similar to private commercial, industrial and institutional activities.

The majority of improvements being maintained and operated as a result of the formation District have been constructed. All of the improvements have been installed within or in areas in close proximity to the developed residential lots.

The residential lots within the Canyon Creek subdivision receive special benefits which include enhanced neighborhood identity and quality of life, generated when park landscaping and lighting are in place, improved, operable, safe, clean and maintained. In short, maintenance and operation of the proposed improvements will provide beautification, shade, and increase the desirability of the immediate surroundings of the residential units within the District.

Because of the location of the improvements, there is no general benefit to properties outside the District or the community as a whole, or a general benefit that is so negligible; it cannot be calculated for purposes of assessment.

As such, all costs associated with the maintenance and operation of the improvements, including incidentals and appurtenances, shall be spread to all parcels within the District on a per unit basis. Developed parcels are those parcels on which a final subdivision map has been filed. Said parcels also abut or obtain primary access from a public street.

In order to determine the appropriate assessment for each developed parcel, a budget for operation and maintenance costs associated with planned improvements in the entire Canyon Creek Subdivision Project was prepared. In some instances, the total cost of operation and maintenance of a given improvement must be collected on an annual basis.

Since the developed parcels in the District are the only parcels that derive special benefit from such activities, they must bear the entire cost of operation and maintenance.

Factored development unit calculations are as follows: Low Density Single Family Residential (SFR) = 1.0 Equivalent Dwelling Unit (EDU); Medium Density Residential (MDR) = 0.8 EDU Monterey County charges 0.25% of the levy amount for collection for administration of the District.

Assessments may be adjusted annually based on the April Consumer Price Index of the San Francisco-Oakland-Hayward Area All Urban Consumers Index (CPI-U). Adjustments are based on the change of the Consumer Price Index prior year/month as compared to the year/month assessments are determined (benchmark month for this district is April). The following table shows the prior year actual and maximum assessment rate per EDU, the annual CPI-U adjustment for the current fiscal year, the current year calculated maximum assessment, the assessment unit of measure, and the current year applied assessment rate.

9 PART IV – METHOD OF APPORTIONMENT
Method of Apportionment
GENERAL PROVISIONS – SPECIAL BENEFIT
Pursuant to the 1982 Act and Article XIIID, all parcels that receive a special benefit conferred upon them as a result of the maintenance and operation of improvements and services shall be identified, and the proportionate special benefit derived by each identified parcel shall be determined in relationship to the entire costs of the maintenance and operation of improvements. Chapter 6.4, Division 2, Title 5, of the Government Code, the Benefit Assessment Act of 1982, permits the establishment of assessment districts by Cities for the purpose of providing certain public improvements that include street maintenance.

The 1982 Act also permits the designation of zones of benefit within any individual assessment district.

Industrial Park Benefit Assessment District

Fiscal Year 2025-26

10 The net amount to be assessed may be apportioned by any formula or method which fairly distributes the net amount among all assessable lots or parcels. The costs for the operation, maintenance and servicing of the improvements maintained for each zone are apportioned in accordance with the methodology which was established by the City Council upon formation of the District.

GENERAL PROVISIONS – GENERAL BENEFIT
Although the improvements may include public streets and drainage facilities that connect to similar facilities outside the District’ boundaries, the construction, maintenance and operation of these improvements are only necessary for the development of properties within the District. As such, these improvements were not required nor necessarily desired by any properties or developments outside the District’ boundaries and any public access or use of the improvements by others is incidental. Therefore, it has been determined that the ongoing maintenance, servicing and operation of the District’s improvements provide no measurable general benefit to properties outside the District or to the public at large, but clearly provide distinct and special benefits to properties within the District.

ASSESSMENT METHODOLOGY
The District is assessed, on the basis of total development units generated, for the maintenance and operation of the Gonzales Industrial Park Benefit Assessment District including incidentals and appurtenances and shall include all the costs of the improvements described herein.

All costs associated with the maintenance and operation of the District improvements including Engineer’s Report, printing and advertising of assessment notices and legal fees shall be spread to all parcels on a pro-rata, net acreage basis.

Chapter 6.4 of Division 2 of the California Government Code, the Benefit Assessment Act of 1982, permits the establishment of assessment districts by agencies for the purpose of financing the operation, maintenance and servicing of drainage, flood control, street lighting, and street improvements, and installation and improvement of drainage and flood improvements. Section 54711 of the Benefit Assessment Act of 1982 requires that assessments be levied according to benefit derived from the provided service. In addition, Article XIIID, Section 4(a) of the California Constitution limits the amount of any assessment to the proportional special benefit conferred on the property.

Article XIIID provides that publicly owned properties must be assessed unless there is clear and convincing evidence that those properties receive no special benefit from the assessment. Excepted from the assessment would be the areas of public streets, public avenues, public lanes, public roads, public drives, public courts, public alleys, public easements and rights-of-ways, public greenbelts and public parkways, and that portion of public property that is not developed and used for business purposes similar to private commercial, industrial and institutional activities.

The improvements to be maintained and operated as a result of the formation of the Gonzales Industrial Park Benefit Assessment District are either in existence or were installed simultaneously with the development of commercial/industrial property units within the District. All such improvements were installed within or in areas in close proximity to the commercial/light industrial property.

Packet Pg. 334 Attachment: Industrial Park Benefit Report (3324 : Resolution No. 2025-59 and Resolution No. 2025-60 Industrial Park Assessment Districts) Engineer’s Report
Industrial Park Benefit Assessment District
City of Gonzales
Fiscal Year 2025-26

11 As a result of the foregoing, the commercial industrial property will receive 100% of the special benefits of the operation, maintenance and servicing of drainage, flood control, street lighting and street improvements. These special benefits include enhanced neighborhood health and safety, and improved quality of life, generated when drainage, flood control and street improvements are in place, improved, operable, safe, clean and maintained. In short, maintenance and operation of the proposed improvements will provide beautification, protection of improved property, enhanced comfort and increase the desirability of the immediate surroundings of the commercial industrial property within the District.

Because of the location of the improvements either within or close to the District itself, there is no general benefit to properties outside the District or the community as a whole, or a general benefit that is so negligible; it cannot be calculated for purposes of assessment.

As such, all costs associated with the maintenance and operation of Gonzales Industrial Park Benefit Assessment District improvements, including incidentals and appurtenances, shall be spread to all property within the District on a net acreage of property basis. Said property also abuts or obtains primary access from a public street.

In order to determine the appropriate assessment for the property, a budget for operation and maintenance costs associated with planned improvements in the entire Gonzales Industrial Park was prepared. In some instances, the total cost of operation and maintenance of a given improvement must be collected on an annual basis. Since the developed property in the District is the only property that derives special benefit from such activities, said property initially must bear its pro-rata share cost of operation and maintenance. The City of Gonzales will bear the additional cost of maintenance until all properties within the District are developed. If additional commercial industrial properties gain access to the improvements constructed as part of Gonzales Industrial Park project, the cost for maintaining the improvements will be re-allocated with the additional net acreage included. It is anticipated that assessments levied in this manner will be decreased as additional properties are added to the District and derive benefit from the operation and maintenance of such improvements.

Assessable acreage in the District is: 76.831 acres
Monterey County charges 0.25% of the levy amount for collection for administration of the District.

9 PART IV – METHOD OF APPORTIONMENT
Method of Apportionment

GENERAL PROVISIONS
The 1972 Act permits the establishment of assessment districts by agencies for the purpose of providing certain public improvements which include the construction, maintenance and servicing of public lights, landscaping and appurtenant facilities. The 1972 Act further requires that the cost of these improvements be levied according to benefit rather than assessed value:
“The net amount to be assessed upon lands within an assessment district may be apportioned by any formula or method which fairly distributes the net amount among all assessable lots or parcels in proportion to the estimated benefits to be received by each such lot or parcel from the improvements.”
The formula used for calculating assessments in the District therefore reflects the composition of the parcels, and the improvements and services provided, to fairly apportion the costs based on estimated benefit to each parcel. In addition, pursuant to Prop 218:
“No assessment shall be imposed on any parcel which exceeds the reasonable cost of the proportional special benefit conferred on that parcel. Only special benefits are assessable and an agency shall separate the general benefits from the special benefits conferred on a parcel.”

Unless otherwise noted, these improvements provide no measurable general benefit to properties outside the District or to the public at large.

Industrial Park Landscape Maintenance Assessment District City of Gonzales
Fiscal Year 2025-26

10 Special Benefits
The method of apportionment (assessment methodology) approved at the time the District was formed is based on the premise that each of the assessed parcels within the District receives benefit from the improvements maintained and financed by annual assessments. Specifically, the assessments are for the maintenance of local landscape and monument sign improvements. The desirability and safety of properties within the District are enhanced by the presence of wellmaintained landscaping and signage.

Non-Assessable Parcels
Within the boundaries of the District, there are properties that are considered to receive no special benefit from the District improvements and are therefore not assessed. Parcels owned by the City of Gonzales and Gonzales Six CA General Partnership are deemed to receive no benefit from the improvements and services and are therefore not assessed.

ASSESSMENT METHODOLOGY
The District is assessed, on the basis of total assessable acreage, for the maintenance and operation of the District improvements, including incidentals and appurtenances, and shall include all the costs of maintaining and/or operating the improvements described herein.

All costs associated with the maintenance and operation of the Gonzales Industrial Park Landscape Maintenance Assessment District improvements including Engineer’s Report, printing and advertising of assessment notices and legal fees shall be spread to all parcels on a pro-rata, net acreage basis.

Part 2 of Division 15 of the Streets and Highways Code, the Landscaping and Lighting Act of 1972, permits the establishment of assessment districts by agencies for the purpose of providing certain public improvements which include the operation, maintenance and servicing of landscaping, street lighting, and park and recreational facilities. Section 22573 of the Lighting and Landscaping Act of 1972 requires that maintenance assessments be levied according to benefit rather than according to assessed value. In addition, Article XIIID, Section 4(a) of the California Constitution limits the amount of any assessment to the proportional special benefit conferred on the property.

Article XIIID provides that publicly owned properties must be assessed unless there is clear and convincing evidence that those properties receive no special benefit from the assessment.

Excepted from the assessment would be the areas of public streets, public avenues, public lanes, public roads, public drives, public courts, public alleys, public easements and rights-of-ways, public greenbelts and public parkways, and that portion of public property that is not developed and used for business purposes similar to private commercial, industrial and institutional activities.

The improvements to be maintained and operated as a result of the formation of the Gonzales Industrial Park Landscape Maintenance Assessment District were installed simultaneously with the development of commercial industrial property within the District. All the improvements were installed within or in areas in close proximity to the commercial industrial property.

Fiscal Year 2025-26

11 As a result of the foregoing, the commercial industrial property, will receive all of the special benefits of the operation and maintenance of public landscaping. These special benefits include enhanced identity and quality of life, generated when landscaping is in place, improved, operable, safe, clean and maintained. In short, maintenance and operation of the proposed improvements will provide beautification and increase the desirability of the immediate surroundings of the industrial/commercial property within the District.

Assessable acreage in the District is: 76.831 acres
Monterey County charges 0.25% of the levy amount for collection for administration of the District.
