Hi, this is Matthew Colter trying to comment on the consent calendar number two Chinese station Does that sound suspicious to anyone? That you guys are approving doing business with Number eight this kid steer they're already been using it for a week So I don't know why you guys are even involved unless it's just a rubber stamp it Because it doesn't say anything about it's already being used and it's already a done deal So I guess they overrode you for purchase of a very expensive piece of equipment. Dependent Street Rehab, number nine, the striping. There's no bicycle lanes. There should have been more striping, but in place with our road rehabilitation projects for bicycles and pedestrians to use to be able to cross the streets, because there's also no crosswalks to get to the other side of the street. Number 10, the landscaping tax should be repealed because it's not really being landscaped. The

4 sprinklers are broken, the trees are dead, I speak particularly of whispering pines. The dust that's being put into the air from the new construction project next to Peaceful Valley Farm Supply is outrageous, but particularly on the landscaping situation, you need to around and look at it. It's at least 50% of the stuff is dead from when you originally planted it and it was originally planned. It's never been replanted or upgraded or even rehabbed at all. Thank you.

6 unacceptable the fires that are happening. Some people are living along the sound walls right between Dorsey and Brunswick Road. There's camp set up in there.

There's lots of camps that you guys are definitely missing on and need to be dealt with, um, for fire hazard, for sure. It needs to be a homeless liaison from the city that works with this subject, particularly because it doesn't seem like it either comes up at any of the meetings, even at all. And so that's for my public comment for tonight.

Thank you.

Transcript:

Okay. I'm going to just go ahead and try this. My address is 634 Brighton. I am involved in ongoing litigation and I am getting really tired of it as it defines insanity, doing the same thing over and over and over again and expecting a different result.

In the meantime, I was notified that you were going to have a public meeting held on this notification that you sent me, which is a finance thing. And I went and tried to do my research and I found the issue for the open meeting. And then I, it seemed vague to me, so on the agenda portion, so I went ahead and looked at the next date, and I was appalled. I mean, frankly, I'm appalled because there's an open session on 6.8 to discuss this issue presented to me in this notice. Then on 6.10, there's a closed meeting. The closed meeting, the agenda is a predetermined outcome, a predetermined meeting that legal counsel, that the discussion, determined that the

Page 20 ends

Item # 1.
11 discussion in the open session will prejudice the position of the local agency in the litigation. I don't know who of you thinks you're suing who, but I mean, I'm objecting, so my opinion is not supposed to count because you could jeopardize, you could prejudice yourself in local agency litigation. The issue is this utility bill that I am not paying under protest because I have not received the services. I've got leaks in my street that I witnessed when they dug it up after they created a leak at my smart meter after they reset the meter. Then they reset it on a root that is growing along the leak that had existed in the street and told me that they would fix that, but they didn't.

They filled it. Now I've got that tree growing right under my meter and nobody from the city willing to come out and actually take the root out like they said they would because I said leave it open so I could remove it. And they go, no, we're going to take it out and we'll fill it. but they didn't because now it's growing not only under my meter, but it is now determined that it's gonna come up between the sidewalk and the block wall, which is a disaster waiting to happen. I've tried to kill it several times, it's not working. It's too dead set on getting to the water leaks. We had, we on a shared sewer line, both of us paying the full cost of the sewer line, and we had, or he had, a backup, and he was blaming it on me. In the meantime, finally after three or four different people, the guy put a camera down and found a leak in the street of the sewer line, with roots and whatever is going on. I came in and I said to the city, look, it's on the city street. When you put in the smart meter, you came around and you told me that everything that you owned the shutoff valve at this point that you were going to charge to come on and off the property to turn off the water, that I had no choice in the matter. It was I could not use the valve. In the meantime, I had a leak at that point that was 13 years ago when they installed the smart meter. Every single one of all of you and every contractor and every homeowner seems to have some kind of mental block. I don't understand it. Impractical thinking. It's just impractical.

You come and you say, well, if the water leak is on your side, it's your problem. If it's on our side of the meter, it's our problem. And then they come on and find a leak, and I said, don't be ridiculous. You installed the whole thing. If it leaks at all, then it's your installation, your problem. You can't foist that charge off on me. And then what? say, you must pay or we will turn off your water, and then notify me how illegal it is for me to live in a house that has no water, no hot and cold running water. You have breached every contract that there is, and when you have issues in the street concerning environmental waste leak in the city street, under the city street, and the city street is cracking and it's sinking in certain places around these cracks. And my house actually slipped and fell, slid, in keeping with the crack in the street. My insurance company tells me at that time that I have to pay to replace all the galvanized pipe. My house was supposed to be plumbed in copper. Meantime they dig up the city street, the city street is all galvanized. And then they send me a new

Page 21 ends

Item # 1.
12 reinsurance bond. I pay $5 a month and eventually they're going to replace my exterior lines for $12 ,000. I am not giving you $12 ,000 for you to determine that you're going to look into the fire risk. You shed off my water. I can't put out a fire, okay? You shut off my water, I lose my right to water, okay? And if you leave me on welfare, instead of actually forcing the insurance company to pay the claim that covered and breach every inch of the contract, it's the insurance manipulating your decisions. That's all it is. So I have plenty of comments on this, And I'm not allowing you to put this back to the treasurer, voice this charge for water usage that I don't owe you if you owe me repairs and an engineer's report to tell me why the city street is cracked in exactly the same places that my house cracked when I filed the homeowners insurance claim. and then you let the insurance company cancel my insurance policy as a known risk that I can't afford anyway if they go into court and get the judge to rule that they are entitled to discovery. They sanction me, sanction me, sanction me, sanction me for being unable to afford to provide discovery. Okay? When all they want to know is who I am, where I was born, when I was born, was I insured, was I injured, did I have a car accident, blah, blah, blah, blah, blah, blah, blah.

It's pathetic. So I can't get an answer from you, and if you're going to be the one that is going to prejudiced in the open session, it's summary. If you're going to be prejudiced because I'm commenting and I've been telling you all, all this for 13 years and more, 26 years on the other hand, okay, then you need to stop and take notice.

You can't put me with risk management and have them go into a closed session and say we're not going to deal with I guess they're going to sue somebody, maybe, or maybe it's just me that sued them. I can't pay the county treasurer the money they want for the taxes for services where you all go into secret litigation and when you win you put it in the public fund and you use it the way you want and you never take care of the issues that allow you to deliver utilities. you're supposed to provide clean fresh water and the public road and transportation whatever you've got to fix the pipes on Brighton you can't you can't abandon your oldest customers that were paying you for years and years and years and just abandon them and just pick and choose who you're gonna fix okay pick and choose who you're going to replace their sewer lines. And then watch my house deteriorate and then say, but we've determined risk management doesn't want to negotiate. Please stop. OK. There's my public comment that isn't going to matter because you can't answer because you will prejudice yourself and the public agency in the litigation. You're appalling. Thanks for watching!

PURPOSE
In 2006, the California Occupational Safety and Health (Cal/OSHA) Standards Board approved a permanent heat stress standard intended to protect outdoor employees from heat-related deaths and illnesses. In 2024, the Board approved a new standard that applies to indoor work areas. Both standards require employers to maintain a written plan and implement procedures that include employee training on the prevention of heat illness, identifying and responding to symptoms of heat illness, providing adequate amounts of water, allowing time to rest, granting access to adequate shade or cooling, and providing emergency medical services as needed.

Employees who work in situations or areas where environmental risk factors for heat illness are present should take adequate precautions to protect themselves. Accordingly, the City will take steps to control, to the extent possible, the risk factors that can lead to heat illness and develop employee and supervisor awareness of heat illness prevention and response. All employees at risk from heat illness are expected to comply with the procedures in this plan and in the Injury and Illness Prevention Program. This plan is based on the California Code of Regulations, Title 8, Sections 3395 and 3396.

Exemptions:
 This plan does not apply to places of employment where employees are teleworking from a location of the employee's choice that is not under the control of the City.  This plan does not apply to incidental heat exposures where an employee is exposed to temperatures at or above 82 degrees Fahrenheit and below 95 degrees Fahrenheit for less than 15 minutes in any 60-minute period. NOTE: This exemption does not apply to vehicles without effective and functioning air conditioning.
 This plan does not apply to emergency operations directly involved in the protection of life or property.

DEFINITIONS
 Acclimatization: Temporary adaptation of the body to work in the heat that occurs gradually when a person is exposed. Acclimatization peaks in most people within 4 to 14 days of regular work for about two hours per day in the heat.
 Clothing that restricts heat removal: Full-body clothing covering the arms, legs, and torso that is any of the following: (A) Waterproof; (B) Designed to protect the wearer from a chemical, biological, physical, radiological, or fire hazard; or (C) Designed to protect the wearer or the work process from contamination.
 Cool-down area: An indoor or outdoor area that is blocked from direct sunlight and shielded from other high radiant heat sources to the extent feasible and is either open to the air or provided with ventilation or cooling.
 Environmental risk factors for heat illness: Working conditions that create the possibility that heat illness could occur, including air temperature, relative humidity, radiant heat from the sun and other sources, conductive heat sources such as the ground, air movement, workload severity and duration, protective clothing, and personnel protective equipment worn by employees.  Heat illness: A serious medical condition resulting from the body’s inability to cope with a particular heat load. This may include heat rash, heat cramps, heat exhaustion, heat syncope, and heat stroke.
o Heat cramps: Painful muscle spasms that usually occur in the legs (hamstrings) and abdomen.

Heat cramps are treatable and are the least severe form of heat-related illness. o Heat exhaustion (heat syncope): An early indicator that the body’s cooling system is becoming overwhelmed. Signs of heat exhaustion include:
 Cool, moist, pale, ashen, or flushed skin.
 Headache, nausea, or dizziness.

400365.1
 Weakness or exhaustion.
 Heavy sweating (a capstone sign).
o Heat stroke: A medical emergency, heat stroke occurs when the body’s systems are overwhelmed by heat and cease functioning. Heat stroke is a life-threatening condition and requires immediate, professional emergency medical intervention. Signs of heat stroke include:
 Red, hot, and/or dry skin.
 Changes in the level of consciousness.
 Vomiting.
 Heat index: A measure of heat stress developed by the National Weather Service (NWS) for outdoor environments that takes into account the dry bulb temperature and the relative humidity.

For purposes of this plan, heat index refers to conditions in indoor work areas. Radiant heat is not included in the heat index. The required NWS heat index chart (2019) is in Appendix A.  Heat wave: For purposes of this plan, any day in which the predicted high outdoor temperature for the day will be at least 95 degrees Fahrenheit and threshold to trigger the implementation of enhanced safety measures.
 Indoor: Refers to a space that is under a ceiling or overhead covering that restricts airflow and is enclosed along its entire perimeter by walls, doors, windows, dividers, or other physical barriers that restrict airflow, whether open or closed. All work areas that are not indoor are considered outdoor.  Personal risk factors for heat illness: Factors such as an individual’s age, degree of acclimatization, health, water consumption, alcohol consumption, caffeine consumption, and use of prescription medications that affect the body’s water retention or other physiological responses to heat.
 Preventative cool-down rest: A rest that is taken in a cool-down area to prevent overheating.  Preventative recovery period: A period of time to recover from exposure to heat in order to prevent developing heat illness.
 Shade: Blockage of direct sunlight. Canopies, umbrellas, and other temporary structures or devices may be used to provide shade. Shade is not adequate when the heat in the area of shade defeats the purpose of shade, which is to allow the body to cool, or if a secondary shadow can be cast under the shade structure. For example, a car sitting in the sun does not provide acceptable shade to a person inside it unless the air conditioning system is operating and effective at reducing temperature.
 Supervisor: Any employee who exercises supervisory functions (e.g., foreman, lead, manager, etc.) and is both capable of identifying existing and predictable lead hazards in the surroundings or working conditions and has authorization to take prompt corrective measures to eliminate them.

RESPONSIBILITY
Administrative EMS Coordinator, or another position appointed by the City Manager, has authority and responsibility for implementing the provisions of this plan in our workplace. In addition, all managers and supervisors are responsible for implementing and maintaining the Heat Illness Prevention Plan in their assigned work areas and ensuring employees receive answers to questions about the procedures in a language they understand.

All employees are responsible for using safe work practices, including following all directives, policies, and procedures and helping to maintain a safe work environment.

This plan is maintained on the City’s webpage . It is available to employees or their representatives upon request.

PROCEDURE
Procedures for the Provision of Water

1. Fresh, pure, suitably cool water will be provided to employees free of charge. a. Staff at fixed indoor locations – water will be provided from water fountains, water dispensers, and/or water bottles.
b. Staff at outdoor spaces – water will be provided from water dispensers (including water coolers) and water bottles. Steps will also be taken to ensure the water is replenished and that at least one quart per employee per hour of drinking water is available for the entire shift.

2. Supervisors will ensure that the water is fresh, pure, and suitably cool. Supervisors will visually examine the water at the start of each shift and throughout the day as needed for purity and quantity. They will also pour a small sample of water on their skin to ensure that the water is suitably cool. During hot weather or high indoor heat working conditions, the water will be cooler than the ambient temperature but not so cool as to cause discomfort.

3. The water will be located in the cool-down areas and as close as possible to the areas where employees are located outdoors.

4. Employees will be reminded and encouraged to frequently consume small quantities (~8 ounces every 15 minutes) of water throughout their shifts. Supervisors will ensure these reminders are provided to employees.

5. All water containers will be kept in a sanitary condition. Water from non-approved or non-tested water sources (e.g., untested wells) is not acceptable. If hoses or connections are used, they must be approved for potable drinking water systems, as shown on the manufacturer’s label.

6. For outdoor work locations in which the temperature equals or exceeds 95 degrees Fahrenheit or during a heat wave, pre-shift meetings will be conducted before the commencement of work to both encourage employees to drink plenty of water and remind them of their right to take cooldown rests when necessary. Supervisors will allow for additional water breaks on such high-heat days, as needed. Additionally, Supervisors will lead by example and remind employees throughout the work shift to drink water.

Procedures for Access to Cool-Down Areas for Indoor Places of Employment

1. This section applies to all indoor work areas where the temperature equals or exceeds 82 degrees Fahrenheit when employees are present.

2. Cool-down areas(s) will be located as close as practicable to work areas. The temperature in the indoor cool-down areas will be maintained at less than 82 degrees Fahrenheit through either air conditioning, evaporative coolers, and/or fans.

3. The cool-down area(s) will be available at the site to accommodate all employees who are on a break at any point in time and will be large enough to allow all employees on break sufficient space to sit in a fully normal posture without engaging in physical contact with each other.

4. Employees will be informed of the location of the cool-down area(s) and will be encouraged and allowed to take cool-down breaks in the cool-down area(s) whenever they feel they need a break.

Employees who take a preventative cool-down rest break will be monitored and asked if they are experiencing symptoms of heat illness. In no case will the employee be ordered back to work until signs or symptoms of heat illness have abated (see the section on Emergency Response for additional information). If an employee exhibits signs or symptoms of heat illness while on a preventative cool-down rest, appropriate first aid or emergency response will be administered.

Preventative cool-down rest periods will be at least 5 minutes, in addition to the time needed to access the cool-down area.

Procedures for Access to Shade for Outdoor Places of Employment

1. Shade will be as close as practicable to employees when the outdoor temperature equals or exceeds 80 degrees Fahrenheit. When the temperature is below 80 degrees Fahrenheit, access to

Page 43 ends

Item # 4.

Heat Illness Prevention Plan for
The City of Grass Valley
Updated on XX/XX/25

Page 5 ends

400365.1
shade will be provided promptly when requested by an employee. Sources of shade may include but are not limited to, trees, pop-up canopies, umbrellas, vehicles, awnings, and pergolas.

Note: The interior of a vehicle will not be used to provide shade unless the vehicle has a working air conditioner and is cooled down before being utilized.

2. Sufficient shade will be made available at the site to accommodate all employees who are on a break at any point in time. During meal periods, there will be enough shade for all employees who choose to remain in the general area of work or in areas designated for recovery and rest periods.

To ensure that the provided shade will be sufficient, we will rotate employees in and out of breaks – including meal periods and recovery and rest periods – if the number of employees in the crew exceeds the number that can fit comfortably under the shade.

3. Employees will be informed of the location of the shade and will be encouraged to take five-minute cool-down rests in the shade, which will remain accessible at all times. An employee who takes a preventative cool-down rest break will be monitored, encouraged to remain in the shade, and asked if they are experiencing symptoms of heat illness. In no case will the employee be ordered back to work until signs and symptoms of heat illness have abated, and in no event will they be ordered to return to work until at least five minutes have elapsed after symptom(s) have abatement. See the section on Emergency Response for additional information.

4. As crews move, shade structures will be relocated to be placed as close as practicable to the employees so that access to shade is provided at all times. The onsite supervisor is responsible for moving the shade structures to ensure swiftness in making such adjustments as well as adequate coverage. All employees on a recovery rest break or a meal period will have full access to shade so they can sit in a normal posture without having to be in physical contact with each other.

5. Before trees or other vegetation are used to provide shade (such as in orchards), the thickness and shape of the shaded area will be evaluated to ensure that sufficient shadow is cast to protect employees throughout the workday as the area of shading moves.

6. In situations where it is not safe or feasible to provide access to shade (e.g., during high winds), the unsafe or unfeasible conditions will be documented, and alternative procedures will be used to provide access to shade that provides equivalent protection. Alternative procedures may include the use of vehicles or the interior of buildings.

Procedures for Temperature Assessment for Indoor Places of Employment

1. Initial measurements shall be taken when it is reasonable to suspect that (A) The temperature equals or exceeds 87 degrees Fahrenheit when employees are present; (B) The heat index equals or exceeds 87 degrees Fahrenheit when employees are present; (C) Employees wear clothing that restricts heat removal and the temperature equals or exceeds 82 degrees Fahrenheit; or (D) Employees work in a high radiant heat area and the temperature equals or exceeds 82 degrees Fahrenheit. Monitoring instruments will be maintained according to the manufacturer's recommendations, and the instruments used to measure the heat index shall be based on the heat index chart in Appendix A. The locations for the temperature measurements will be taken in areas of the indoor environment that best represent the space as a whole (e.g., the middle of the shop or warehouse).

2. The temperature and/or heat index will be measured and recorded by the on-site supervisor.

Employees will be actively involved in the planning, conducting, and recording of measurements of temperature or heat index.

3. Records of the temperature or heat index measurements, whichever value is greater, will be retained for one year or until the next measurements are taken, whichever is later. Measurements will be made available from Managers and Supervisors to employees or designated representatives upon request. The records will include the date, time, and specific location of all measurements.

4. Measurements will be taken again when they are reasonably expected to exceed previous measurements by 10 or more degrees Fahrenheit in areas where employees work and at times

400365.1
when employee exposures are expected to be the greatest.

Employees will be actively involved in identifying and evaluating other environmental risk factors for heat illness that may exist in the workplace. This includes examining such factors as employees' clothing that restricts heat removal, personal protective equipment, and work or tasks that are in high radiant heat areas.

Procedures for Monitoring the Weather for Outdoor Places of Employment

1. Supervisors will be trained and instructed to check the extended weather forecast in advance with aid from internet sources (http://www.nws.noaa.gov/), the OSHA-NIOSH Heat Safety Tool, the local Weather Channel TV Network, or some other reliable source. The work schedule will be planned in advance and will take into consideration the likelihood of high temperatures or a heat wave. This type of advance planning should take place whenever the temperature is expected to reach 70 degrees Fahrenheit or higher.

2. Prior to each workday, the supervisor will monitor the weather at the worksite using the methods described above. This critical weather information will be taken into consideration to evaluate the risk level for heat illness and to determine when it will be necessary to make modifications to the work schedule (e.g., stopping work early, rescheduling the job, working at night or during the cooler hours of the day, increasing the number of water and rest breaks, etc.).

3. The supervisor will use a thermometer, weather station, or weather mobile app at the job site and throughout the work shift to monitor for an increase in outdoor temperature and ensure that once the temperature exceeds 80 degrees Fahrenheit, shade structures will be made available to employees. In addition, when the temperature reaches or exceeds 95 degrees Fahrenheit, additional preventive measures, such as high-heat procedures, will be implemented. See the HighHeat Procedures section for additional information.

Procedures for Control Measures for Indoor Places of Employment Control measures will be implemented when either of the following occurs:
 Indoor temperature/heat index reaches or exceeds 87 degrees Fahrenheit  Indoor temperature reaches or exceeds 82 degrees Fahrenheit, and employees are either:
o Wearing clothing that restricts heat removal; or
o Working in an area with high radiant heat.

1. Feasible engineering controls will be implemented first to reduce the temperature and heat index below 87°F (or temperature below 82°F for those working in clothing that restricts heat removal or in high radiant heat areas). Administrative controls will be added if feasible engineering controls are not sufficient to comply with the standard. If both feasible engineering and administrative controls do not sufficiently decrease the temperature and minimize the risk of heat illness, then personal heat-protective equipment will be provided.

2. The following engineering controls will be implemented to lower the indoor temperature, heat index, or both to the lowest possible level. These controls help make the work environment cooler or create a barrier between the employee and the heat:
 Cooling fans or air conditioning
 Increased natural ventilation, such as open windows and doors when the outdoor temperature or heat index is lower than the indoor temperature and heat index  Local exhaust ventilation at points of high heat production or moisture  Reflective shields to block radiant heat
 Insulating/isolating heat sources from employees or isolating employees from heat source  Evaporative coolers
 Dehumidifiers

Page 45 ends

Item # 4.

Heat Illness Prevention Plan for
The City of Grass Valley
Updated on XX/XX/25

Page 7 ends

400365.1

3. The following administrative controls will be implemented once all feasible engineering controls have been employed. These controls are modified work practices that can reduce heat exposure by adjusting work procedures, practices, or schedules:
 Modify work schedules and activities to times of the day when the temperature is cooler or schedule shorter shifts, especially during heat waves. “Heat wave” refers to any day in which the predicted high temperature for the day will be at least 80 degrees Fahrenheit and at least 10 degrees Fahrenheit higher than the average high daily temperature in the preceding five days. For newly hired employees and unacclimatized existing employees, gradually increase shift length over the first one to two weeks.
 Require mandatory rest breaks in a cooler environment, such as a shady location or an airconditioned building. The duration of the rest breaks should increase as heat stress rises.  Rotate job functions among employees to help minimize exertion and heat exposure. If employees must be in proximity to heat sources, mark such heat sources clearly so they are aware of the hazards.
 Require employees to work in pairs or groups during extreme heat so they can monitor each other for signs of heat illness.

4. The following personal heat-protective equipment will be provided if feasible engineering controls do not decrease the temperature enough, and administrative controls do not minimize the risk of heat illness. This personal heat-protective equipment consists of special cooling devices that can be worn to protect employees in hot environments:
 Water and/or air-cooled garments, cooling vests, jackets, and neck wraps (the cooling source can be reusable ice packs or cooled air connected to an external source)  Supplied air personal cooling systems
 Insulated suits
 Heat-reflective clothing
 Infrared-reflecting face shields

HIGH HEAT PROCEDURES
Procedures for Outdoor Places of Employment
High-heat procedures are additional preventive measures that this organization will follow when the temperature reaches or exceeds 95 degrees Fahrenheit in outdoor places of employment.

1. Effective communication by voice, direct observation (applicable for work crews of 20 or fewer), mandatory buddy system, or other methods will be maintained to allow those at the work site to contact a supervisor when necessary. If the supervisor is unable to be near the employees to observe them or communicate with them, then cell phones, text, or two-way radio will be used for this purpose.

2. Frequent communication will be maintained with employees working by themselves or in smaller groups by cell phone, text, or two-way radio to be on the lookout for possible symptoms of heat illness. The employee(s) will be contacted regularly and as frequently as possible throughout the day since an employee in distress may not be able to summon help on their own.

3. Effective communication and direct observation for alertness and signs and symptoms of heat illness will be conducted frequently. When the supervisor is not available, an alternate responsible person will be designated by the supervisor ahead of time, and the responsible person must be assigned to observe and look for signs and symptoms of heat illness. If a supervisor, designated responsible person, or any employee reports any signs or symptoms of heat illness in any employee, the supervisor or designated person will take immediate action commensurate with the severity of the illness (see Emergency Procedures).

4. Employees will be reminded throughout the work shift to drink plenty of water and take preventative cool-down rest breaks when needed. The supervisor will remind employees to drink water regularly.

400365.1

5. Meetings will be held before the commencement of each shift to review the high-heat procedures, encourage employees to drink plenty of water, and remind employees of their right to take cooldown rests when necessary.

6. When the temperature reaches or exceeds 95 degrees Fahrenheit, employees will be provided one 10-minute preventative cool-down rest period every two hours. During the first eight hours of a shift, the cool-down periods may be provided at the same time as the scheduled rest periods.

7. Employees working longer than eight hours will be provided with an additional 10-minute cooldown rest period every two hours. For example, if the shift extends beyond eight hours, an additional rest period will be taken at the end of the eighth hour of work. If the shift extends beyond 10 hours, another rest period will be taken at the end of the 10th hour, and so on.

8. All employees will be required to take the cool-down rest periods; merely offering the opportunity for a break will not be sufficient to maintain compliance with this plan.

Procedures for Handling a Heat Wave for Outdoor Places of Employment

1. During a heat wave, all employees will be closely observed by a supervisor or designee.

2. During a heat wave or heat spike, the workday may be rescheduled (e.g., conducted at night or during cooler hours).

3. During a heat wave or heat spike and before starting work, “tailgate” or “pre-shift” meetings will be held to review the Heat Illness Prevention Plan, the weather forecast, and emergency response procedures. Additionally, if schedule modifications are not possible, employees will be provided with an increased number of water and rest breaks and observed closely for signs and symptoms of heat illness.

4. Each employee will be assigned a “buddy” to be on the lookout for signs and symptoms of heat illness and to ensure that emergency procedures are initiated when someone displays possible signs or symptoms of heat illness.

ACCLIMATIZATION
Acclimatization is the gradual, temporary adaptation of the body to work in the heat after repeated exposure. The body needs time to adapt when temperatures rise suddenly; therefore, employees may be at heightened risk for heat illness if they overexert themselves when a heat wave or heat spike strikes or if they are newly exposed to heat to which the body hasn’t yet adjusted. Inadequate acclimatization can be significantly more perilous in conditions of high heat and physical stress. The following are additional protective procedures that will be implemented when conditions result in sudden exposure to heat that employees are not accustomed to:

1. The weather will be monitored daily. The supervisor/designee will be on the lookout for heat waves, heat spikes, or temperatures to which employees haven’t been exposed for several weeks or longer.

2. New employees and those who have been newly assigned to a high-heat area will be closely observed by the supervisor or designee for the first 14 days on duty.

3. The intensity of the work will be lessened during a two-week break-in period by using procedures such as scheduling slower-paced, less physically demanding work during the hot parts of the day, with the heaviest work activities scheduled during the cooler parts of the day (early morning or evening). Steps taken to lessen the intensity of the workload for new employees will be documented.

4. For indoor work areas, this 14-day observation period applies when the temperature or heat index reaches or exceeds 87 degrees Fahrenheit, or when the temperature or heat index reaches or exceeds 82 degrees Fahrenheit, when an employee wears clothing that restricts heat removal or when an employee works in a high radiant heat area.

5. Employees and supervisors will be trained in the importance of acclimatization, how it is developed, and how these procedures address it.

EMERGENCY PROCEDURES
Emergency Response

1. The following details the effective means by which this organization will ensure employees receive appropriate emergency services when needed:
 For outdoor places of employment, employees and supervisors assigned to a particular worksite will be provided access to address, or the names of the nearest crossroads for clear and precise directions to the worksite (e.g., street or road names, distinguishing features, and distances to major roads) to avoid potential delays in receiving emergency medical services.  For indoor places of employment, employees and supervisors will be provided a street address to provide clear and precise directions to the worksite (e.g., street or road names, distinguishing features, and distances to major roads) to avoid potential delays in emergency medical services.
 Supervisors will also designate employees to physically travel to the nearest road or highway where emergency responders can be signaled. If daylight is diminished, the designated employee(s) shall be provided reflective vests or flashlights to direct emergency personnel to the sick employee’s location, which may not be visible from the road or highway.

2. Effective communication will be ensured by voice, direct observation, mandatory buddy system, or electronic means such as cell phone, text, or two-way radio and will be maintained so that employees can contact a supervisor when necessary. If the supervisor is unable to be near the employees to observe them or communicate with them, then cell phone, text, or two-way radio may be used for this purpose.

3. To ensure that emergency medical services can be called, all supervisors will have access to or carry communication devices such as a cell phone or landline. These communication devices will be checked prior to each shift to ensure that they are functional.

4. When an employee shows signs or symptoms of severe heat illness, emergency medical services will be called, and steps will be immediately taken to keep the stricken employee cool and comfortable to prevent the progression to a more serious illness. Under no circumstances will the affected employee be left unattended.

5. During a heat wave, heat spike, or hot temperatures, employees will be reminded and encouraged to immediately report to a supervisor any signs or symptoms they are experiencing.

6. Employees and supervisors will be trained in these written procedures for emergency response.

Handling a Sick Employee

1. When an employee displays possible signs or symptoms of heat illness, a trained supervisor will evaluate the sick employee and determine whether resting in the nearby shade or cool-down area and drinking cool water will suffice to alleviate symptoms or if emergency service providers are required. A sick employee will not be left alone in the nearby shade or cool-down area, as their condition could take a turn for the worse.

2. When an employee displays possible signs or symptoms of heat illness and no trained first aid employee or supervisor is available at the site, emergency service providers will be immediately contacted by the designated alternate.

3. Emergency service providers will be contacted immediately if an employee displays signs or symptoms of severe heat illness (e.g., decreased level of consciousness, staggering, vomiting, disorientation, irrational behavior, incoherent speech, convulsions, red and hot face, etc.), appears sickly, or whose symptoms are not alleviated after drinking cool water and resting in the shade.

While the ambulance is in route, first aid will be administered to cool the employee by such means as placing the employee in the shade, removing excess layers of clothing, placing ice packs in the armpits and groin area, or fanning the victim to provide cool airflow. A sick employee should not be sent home – even if they start to feel better – as their condition could worsen, and they may die

before reaching a hospital.

4. If an employee displays signs or symptoms of severe heat illness (e.g., decreased level of consciousness, staggering, vomiting, disorientation, irrational behavior, incoherent speech, convulsions, red and hot face), emergency service providers will be contacted, the signs and symptoms of the victim will be communicated to them, and an ambulance will be requested.

TRAINING
To be effective, employees must understand training. Training records will be maintained and will include the date(s) of the training, who performed the training, who attended the training, and the subject(s) covered. Training records will be maintained and retained as outlined in the City Injury and Illness Prevention Program.

1. It is the City’s responsibility to ensure supervisors and employees are trained on this plan as to the provision of water, access to cool-down areas or shade, preventative cool-down rests, and first aid, as well as each employee’s ability to exercise their rights under this standard without retaliation.

2. Supervisors will be trained prior to assuming supervisory responsibilities over other employees.

Training will additionally include the written procedures outlined in this policy and the steps to follow when employees exhibit symptoms consistent with heat illness.

3. Supervisors and employees will be trained on appropriate first aid and/or emergency response to different types of heat illness. This training will emphasize that heat illness may progress quickly from mild signs and symptoms to a serious, life-threatening illness.

4. Supervisors will be trained on strategies to track the weather at the job site, specifically by monitoring predicted temperature or heat index highs and periodically using a thermometer.

Supervisors will be instructed on the ways in which weather information may be used to modify work schedules, increase the number of water and rest breaks, or cease work early if necessary.

5. All employees and supervisors must receive training prior to commencing field or on-the-job work.

Training will cover all aspects of implementing this organization’s written procedures, including access to sufficient water, shade or cool-down area, rests, high-heat procedures, emergency response procedures, control measures, the importance of frequent consumption of water, different types of heat illness, common signs and symptoms of heat illness, and acclimatization procedures. Employees and supervisors will also be trained on environmental and personal risk factors of heat illness as well as the burden of heat load on the body caused by exertion, clothing, and personal protective equipment. The importance of immediately reporting signs and symptoms of heat illness will be especially emphasized.

6. In addition to initial training, employees will be retrained annually.

7. Employees will be trained on the steps for contacting emergency medical services, including ways to ensure non-English speaking employees receive appropriate and swift aid, tips for providing clear and precise directions to the worksite, instructions for transporting ill employees to a location where they can be reached by emergency responders, and recognizing the importance of making visual contact with emergency responders at the nearest road or landmark to direct them to their worksite, if necessary.

8. When the temperature is expected to exceed 80 degrees Fahrenheit, short “tailgate” or “pre-shift” meetings will be held to review the weather report, reinforce heat illness prevention with all employees, provide reminders to drink water frequently, inform employees of which specific shade or cool-down area(s) will be available, and remind employees to be on the lookout for signs and symptoms of heat illness.

9. New employees will be assigned an experienced co-worker “buddy” to ensure sufficient understanding of the training and encourage employees to follow company procedures.

SAFETY POLICY STATEMENT
It is the intention of the City of Grass Valley to develop, implement, and administer comprehensive risk management, safety, and risk control program. The City maintains that our employees and the general public are our most important assets; therefore, public and employee safety is our greatest responsibility. In all of our assignments, the health and safety of all and the protection of the environment should be of the utmost consideration. Employees at all levels of the workforce are directed to make safety and health a matter of continuing concern, equal in importance to all other operational considerations. This program is established to emphasize that effective risk management, safety, and risk control are integral to management procedures designed to maximize the City’s capital and personnel. Although profit is not the goal of municipal operations, the same efficiency demonstrated in for-profit organizations is desired to ensure that the City can provide services and maximize the use of each available tax dollar.

Within the operational activities of any endeavor, there may be exposure to personal injury, personal illness, or property damage that may be unintentionally hidden. Reviews of operations should consider problems and/or errors that could occur as it relates to the environment, equipment, job procedures, and personnel. Accidents are unplanned events, and most are preventable, and proper planning can control accidents. All employees are directed to initiate such pre-planning as is necessary to minimize unsafe acts, contain environmental hazards, and control unsafe conditions.

Continual emphasis on risk management, risk control techniques, the refinement of work procedures, and safer working conditions has been shown to reduce injuries, property damage, and work interruption significantly. Every employee is charged with the responsibility of supporting and cooperating with the risk management policies and the risk control programs. As a condition of employment, all employees are expected to adopt the concept that the safer way to perform a task is the most efficient and the only acceptable way to accomplish it. Safety adherence and performance will be an important measure of the City’s supervisory and employee performance evaluations.

Employee Recognition

Page 55 ends

Item # 4.

INJURY AND ILLNESS PREVENTION PROGRAM (IIPP) for

CITY OF GRASS VALLEY
400317.1
Updated on XX/XX/25

Page 5 ends

Management should make every effort to recognize employees for following safe work practices.

This recognition may include verbal acknowledgment, recognition at meetings, awards, or other recognition deemed appropriate by management.

Disciplinary Action
Discipline for safety violations should be administered in a manner that is consistent with the City’s progressive disciplinary action. Employees should be disciplined and/or coached for all infractions of safety rules and unsafe work practices that are observed, not just those that result in an injury or illness. Failure to follow safety rules and procedures can result in disciplinary action up to and including termination. The Division Manager/Supervisor should consult with the Department Director/ Department Head and Human Resources when disciplinary action is being considered.

COMMUNICATION
The City recognizes that open, two-way communication between management and staff on health and safety issues is essential to an injury-free, productive workplace. The following system of communication is designed to facilitate a continuous flow of safety and health information between management and staff in a form that is readily understandable and consists of one or more of the following items:
 New employee orientation, including a discussion of safety and health policies and procedures.
 Circulation of the IIPP when it is revised.
 Workplace safety and health training programs.
 Regularly scheduled safety meetings.
 Tailgate meetings at least every ten (10) working days for those employees that have construction-related job duties.
 Effective communication of safety and health concerns between employees and supervisors, including translation where appropriate.
 Posted or distributed safety information on bulletin boards, via email, and on the City’s Network.

Reporting of Safety Concerns
Department Directors/Division Managers should encourage employees to report safety concerns to their supervisor without fear of reprisal or punishment. Under California law, it is illegal for any employer to take an adverse employment action against an employee for reporting unsafe conditions. Department Directors/Department Heads and Division Managers/Supervisors are to encourage employees to report hazards and commend them for their safety awareness.

To encourage employee reporting of unsafe conditions, the City has established a system allowing employees to anonymously notify the City of safety concerns by utilizing suggestion boxes in the break room or anonymous inter-departmental mail. Department Directors/Division Managers are encouraged to develop additional means of anonymous reporting that best meet the needs of their departments.

Safety suggestions will be processed through regular lines of authority (e.g., chain of command).

Those suggestions that cannot be approved or disapproved at the department level will be referred to the Administrative EMS Coordinator.

HAZARD ASSESSMENT
The City shall complete periodic inspections to identify and evaluate workplace hazards. These periodic inspections aim to identify potential hazards so that they can be corrected before an accident occurs. Regular inspections are an essential part of our IIPP. Inspections should include a physical inspection of the premises, as well as identification of unsafe work practices.

Periodic inspections are performed according to the following schedule:

1. Annual audit of all City facilities.

2. When we initially establish our IIP Program.

3. When new substances, processes, procedures, or equipment that present potential new hazards are introduced into our workplace.

4. When new, previously unidentified hazards are recognized.

5. When occupational injuries and illnesses occur.

6. When we hire and/or reassign permanent or intermittent employees to processes, operations, or tasks for which a hazard evaluation has not been previously conducted.

7. Whenever workplace conditions warrant an inspection.

Periodic inspections can be performed by any of the following:
 Department Director/Division Manager
 Supervisor
 Risk Manager
 Consultants
Periodic inspections consist of identifying and evaluating workplace hazards utilizing applicable sections of the attached Hazard Assessment Checklist and other effective methods to identify and evaluate workplace hazards.

Departments engaged in hazardous operations are strongly encouraged to schedule more frequent monthly, weekly, or daily inspections, depending on the operation. A supervisor, risk manager, or consultant inspector shall make hazard findings and/or safety recommendations to the Department Director/Division Manager and the Administrative EMS Coordinator.

The supervisor’s investigation aims to gather information to determine the cause(s) of accidents and near misses to prevent recurrences and future incidents. The Administrative EMS Coordinator may perform a further investigation after the supervisor’s investigation, for any accident or near miss involving City employees or property when additional information is deemed necessary to determine the root cause. Procedures for investigating include:

1. Visiting the accident scene as soon as possible.

2. Interviewing injured or involved employees and witnesses.

3. Examining the workplace for factors associated with the accident/exposure.

4. Determining the root cause of the accident/exposure.

Reports
Accident investigation reports are confidential. The Administrative EMS Coordinator will maintain current accident statistics, which will be available to all department managers. Cal-OSHA 300 Logs are available for review in the Human Resources office. Annual summaries of the Cal-OSHA 300 Log will be distributed to each department for posting as required by state law. The previous year’s Cal-OSHA 300 Log summaries must be posted February 1 through April 30.

HAZARD CONTROL PROCEDURES
Unsafe or unhealthy work conditions, practices, or procedures shall be corrected in a timely manner based on the severity of the hazards. Hazards shall be corrected according to the following procedures:

1. When observed or discovered.

2. When an imminent hazard exists that cannot be immediately abated without endangering employee(s) and/or property, we will remove all exposed employees from the area except those necessary to correct the existing condition. The City shall provide employees required to correct a hazardous situation with the necessary safeguards.

3. All actions taken and the completed dates shall be documented within the City’s corrective action log.

Identified hazardous conditions will be prioritized for correction by considering both the potential consequence (severity) and probability (frequency) of an injury or illness occurring. Corrective action for hazard elimination is the responsibility of the Department Director/Division Manager. The Administrative EMS Coordinator will provide or obtain expert assistance when necessary.

TRAINING AND INSTRUCTION
All employees, including managers and supervisors, shall have training and instruction on general and job-specific safety and health practices. Training and instruction shall be provided as follows:

1. When the IIPP is first established.

2. To all new employees (see attached New Employee Orientation Checklist)

3. To all employees given new job assignments for which training has not been previously provided.

4. Whenever new substances, processes, procedures, or equipment are introduced to the workplace and represent a new hazard.

5. Whenever the employer is made aware of a new or previously unrecognized hazard.

6. To supervisors to familiarize them with the safety and health hazards to which employees under their immediate direction and control may be exposed.

7. To all employees with respect to hazards specific to each employee’s job assignment.

Workplace safety and health practices for all industries include, but are not limited to, the following:

1. Explain the City’s IIPP and measures for reporting unsafe conditions, work practices, injuries, and when additional instruction is needed.

3. Use of appropriate clothing, including gloves, footwear, and personal protective equipment (PPE).

4. Information about chemical hazards to which employees could be exposed and other hazard communication program information.

5. Availability of toilet, handwashing, and drinking water facilities.

6. Provisions for medical services and first aid, including emergency procedures.

In addition, we provide specific instructions to all employees regarding hazards unique to their job assignment, to the extent that such information was not already covered in other training. See attached training matrix for additional training details.

The objective of safety training is to develop employee appreciation for safety and accident prevention as well as the required skills and knowledge to reduce the number and severity of illnesses and injuries. All City employees will be provided training on safe work practices applicable to the performance of their work before assignment. For employees conducting construction-like tasks, tailgates on appropriate topics will be provided at least every ten (10) working days. Tailgate safety topics and refresher training will also be provided as required to maintain regulatory compliance.

Each supervisor receives safety training appropriate to the responsibilities of the supervisory position held. Such training will include the basic techniques of accident prevention, accident investigation, and safety training. If assigned, Department Safety Representatives will receive training in the responsibilities and techniques of their assignments. All training will be documented, and records will be maintained for at least one year.

EMPLOYEE ACCESS to the IIPP
City employees – or their designated representatives - have the right to examine and receive a copy of the City IIPP. This will be accomplished by the City providing unobstructed access through our City’s Website, which allows an employee to review, print, and email the current version of the Program. All City employees have access to the City’s Website during regular work hours.

Any copy provided to an employee or their designated representative will not include any of the records of the steps taken to implement and maintain the written IIP Program. Where we have distinctly different and separate operations with distinctly separate and different IIPPs, we may limit access to the IIPP applicable to the employee requesting it.

An employee must provide written authorization in order to make someone their “designated representative.” A recognized or certified collective bargaining agent will be treated automatically as a designated representative for the purpose of access to the company IIPP. The written authorization must include the following information:
 The name and signature of the employee authorizing the designated representative.  The date of the request.
 The name of the designated representative.
 The date upon which the written authorization will expire (if less than one year).

RECORD KEEPING
We are a local governmental entity and are not required to keep written records of the steps taken to implement and maintain our IIPP.

CODE of SAFE PRACTICE
The City of Grass Valley employees shall follow this general code of safety practices:

1. Any employee may stop City work without fear of retaliation if they believe the task is unsafe and must be evaluated by a supervisor or manager to determine necessary safety precautions.

The employee must immediately report the condition to their immediate supervisor and/or the Administrative EMS Coordinator.

2. Always keep your work area clean and orderly to prevent slips, trips, or falls. When possible, avoid uneven ground and be aware of the walking surface.

3. Do not climb over fences or walls two feet or more in height. When possible, use gates or openings designed for passage. Use steps, stairs, ladders, or ramps to climb up or down work surfaces two feet or more in height or depth.

4. Equipment and Vehicles: Only use equipment for which you have been authorized and trained to operate. Supervisors are to ensure that employees are trained to operate appropriate tools/equipment. Supervisors may request an equipment orientation from the manufacturer, dealer, or rental company for all rented equipment unfamiliar to them. Employees must inspect equipment and vehicles for obvious damage and defects before use. When newly operated, leased, or rented for the first time, check critical safety items such as brakes, locks, guards, etc.

Request and read the owner’s manual and use any inspection guides included with the manual.

5. Bend your knees and use your legs to lift, push, or pull objects. Use tools to help lift and transport heavy objects. When mechanical aids are not available, seek the help of others (twoperson lift) when lifting objects of heavyweight (more than 50 pounds) and/or awkward size (potential exception: jackhammers or other devices designed to be lifted by one person for short periods and distances).

6. When possible, use tools instead of hands to lift and remove lids (i.e., meters, vaults, maintenance holes, etc.). Use tools, the steel-toe of your shoe, or the instep of your foot to slide lids back in place. Avoid pinch points and getting your fingers caught. Ensure that all lids are undamaged, properly seated, and secure before leaving the site.

7. Wear all personal protective equipment (PPE) appropriate for the work area, per warning signs, task-specific procedures, or tool/equipment instructions. Use only tools and equipment that are in good working order, with guards in place and free from damage.

8. Use only those hazardous chemicals that you have been trained on and that have appropriate labeling (name and hazard warning). If a new or unfamiliar chemical or substance, refer to the SDS. Wear all personal protective equipment (PPE) appropriate for the work, per warning signs, SDS, task-specific procedures, etc. Label all secondary containers immediately after hazardous chemicals are placed inside them or when the original container label has been removed or defaced. Properly dispose of waste chemicals and containers in proper containment.

9. For all minor herbicide/pesticide applications and chemical use, follow all precautions and personal protective equipment requirements described on the herbicide/pesticide/chemical label. Check with your supervisor/manager if a Qualified Applicator Certificate or Qualified

Page 63 ends

Item # 4.

INJURY AND ILLNESS PREVENTION PROGRAM (IIPP) for

CITY OF GRASS VALLEY
400317.1
Updated on XX/XX/25

Page 13 ends

Applicator License is required.

10. Wear heavy-duty rubber gloves and boots when working with uncured concrete. Wet Portland cement can cause caustic burns, sometimes referred to as cement burns.

11. Report immediately to your supervisor:
a. On-the-job injuries or illnesses. Report all work-related injuries and illnesses to your supervisor. Supervisors will coordinate a visit to the occupational clinic. For off-hours and weekends, contact Taylor Whittingslow, Deputy City Manager, at 530-470-3140, to report the injury and seek medical advice. If immediate medical attention is needed, call 911 to receive transport to a hospital.
b. Hazards, unsafe practices, close calls, malfunctioning equipment or tools, defective personal protective equipment, or policies and procedures that you believe could create or result in a dangerous situation: immediately STOP WORK to Recognize, Evaluate, and Control/Correct the Hazard(s). Report to your supervisor any situation that cannot be controlled or corrected.

12. When entering private property, request property owners to confine their dogs away from you.

If an unleashed aggressive dog approaches you, do not turn your back, step back from the dog and use a meter stick or similar item to help keep the dog at a safe distance from you.

13. Follow posted speed limits on all public roads. The speed limit inside City facilities, including plants, roads, maintenance yards, and employee parking lots, is 10 MPH. On private easement and access roads, the speed limit is 15 MPH for unpaved roads, and 30 MPH for paved roads.

Report all vehicle accidents and/or damage to your supervisor immediately.

14. Mobile device use while driving is only permitted under state law when used hands-free or paired to the vehicle. No texting is allowed while driving. (Exception: state law does provide exceptions to this restriction for Public Safety Employees. Public Safety Employees will follow their department’s procedures related to the use of mobile devices)

15. If experiencing symptoms of heat illness (fatigue, headache, dizziness, nausea, cramps, hot/dry skin, and rapid pulse), seek shade in an open-air area or an air-conditioned vehicle. If symptoms do not improve immediately or signs of heatstroke are present, call 911. a. Supervisors are required to notify their field employees of forecasted temperatures of 80 °F and above at the start of the work shift and ask them to use caution (drink up to one quart of water per hour and seek shade for at least five minutes when experiencing symptoms of heat illness: fatigue, headache, dizziness, nausea, cramps, hot/dry skin, and rapid pulse). b. Supervisors must ensure that shade and water is available near the work area (as close as practicable) at all times.
c. At temperatures of 95 °F and above, all solitary employees and crew leaders conducting excavations, remote, and grounds maintenance work must check in hourly with their supervisors to ensure employees are alert and not suffering from heat illness. Supervisors are to remind employees to drink plenty of water and give breaks as necessary. d. When forecasted temperatures exceed 105 °F, supervisors must schedule strenuous work activities during cooler times of the day, except for emergency job tasks that are necessary to be completed to avoid major service disruptions or impacts to public safety.

16. If a person(s) identifying themselves from Cal/OSHA shows up at a worksite, ask for identification and the purpose of the visit. Contact your supervisor and assigned City

Title: Letter of Support – Letter of Support for Bear Yuba Land Trust’s Acquisition of Cedar Ridge Preserve
CEQA: Not a Project.

Recommendation: That the City Council authorize the Mayor to sign a letter of support for Bear Yuba Land Trust’s application to the Environmental Enhancement and Mitigation (EEM) Program for the acquisition of the 140-acre Cedar Ridge Preserve.

Prepared by: Timothy M. Kiser, City Manager
Council Meeting Date: July 8, 2025 Date Prepared: July 2, 2025 Agenda: Consent
Background Information: Bear Yuba Land Trust (BYLT) is pursuing a grant through the State of California’s Environmental Enhancement and Mitigation (EEM) Program to acquire and permanently protect the 140-acre Cedar Ridge Preserve, located directly adjacent to the Empire Mine State Historic Park. Empire Mine, located on the eastern edge of Grass Valley, is a popular 853-acre public park offering year-round recreational opportunities for hikers, bikers, equestrians, and runners. It also serves as critical open space and wildlife habitat in close proximity to Grass Valley neighborhoods.

The Cedar Ridge Preserve property provides a rare opportunity to expand this regional recreational and ecological resource. The site includes approximately 0.5 miles of South Wolf Creek, a tributary to the Bear River, and features diverse and sensitive habitats, including riparian corridors, black oak woodlands, and mixed-conifer forest.

BYLT’s proposed acquisition would formalize and enhance existing community trail usage, expand regional trail connectivity, and permanently protect key wildlife corridors and watershed lands. It would also preserve open space that benefits the health and quality of life of local residents. BYLT has a strong record of successful land conservation in Nevada County, and their stewardship ensures both ecological preservation and public access. This acquisition aligns with the City’s values of environmental sustainability, access to outdoor recreation, and regional collaboration.

Supporting BYLT’s efforts through a formal letter of support strengthens their application for EEM Program funding and demonstrates the City’s commitment to enhancing open space and quality of life for residents.

Council Goals/Objectives: The execution of this action attempts to achieve Strategic Goal #5 – High Performance Government and Quality Service.

Fiscal Impact: At this time, there is no budgetary impact on the City’s budget for this item.

RE: Letter of Support for Bear Yuba Land Trust’s Acquisition of Cedar Ridge Preserve Dear EEMP Review Committee,
On behalf of City of Grass Valley, I am writing to express our strong support for Bear Yuba Land Trust’s (BYLT) proposed acquisition of the 140-acre Cedar Ridge Preserve, with funding through the Environmental Enhancement and Mitigation (EEM) Program.

This strategic acquisition represents a rare and critical opportunity to preserve land adjacent to Empire Mine State Historic Park—an 853-acre gem on the edge of Grass Valley that provides year-round public recreation for hikers, bikers, equestrians, and runners. In addition to its significant recreational value, Empire Mine serves as a vital refuge for wildlife and offers important trail connectivity between neighborhoods, open space, and public lands.

The Cedar Ridge Preserve lies directly adjacent to Empire Mine and would add essential habitat and recreational value to the park. The property includes approximately 0.5 miles of South Wolf Creek, a tributary to the Bear River, and protects diverse habitats including riparian corridors, black oak woodlands, and mixed-conifer forest. Securing this land in fee title would not only conserve sensitive ecosystems but also formalize existing community trail use and enhance longterm access for outdoor recreation.

We commend BYLT for their leadership and collaborative approach to land conservation in Nevada County. Their stewardship and commitment to public access make them an ideal organization to carry out this acquisition and manage the property for both ecological and community benefit.

The City of Grass Valley strongly supports this effort and urges full funding of this project through the EEM Program. Protecting Cedar Ridge Preserve is a once-in-a-generation opportunity to expand regional open space, safeguard wildlife habitat, and provide equitable access to nature for present and future generations.

Thank you for your consideration.

Sincerely,
Hilary Hodge

Agenda Action Sheet
Title: Collection of Delinquent Sewer and/or Water Accounts on the Nevada County Tax Roll
CEQA: Not a Project
Recommendation: After holding a public hearing, adopt Resolution 2025-39 requesting that the County of Nevada levy and collect delinquent sewer and water charges on the property tax roll.

Prepared by: Jennifer Styczynski, Deputy Finance Director Council Meeting Date: 7/8/2025 Date Prepared: 7/2/2025
Agenda: Public Hearing
Background Information: Health and Safety Code Section 5473 allows the City to place delinquent sewer and/or water charges on the County property tax roll for collection, with a two-thirds vote of the City Council. This process is used when utility service cannot be discontinued as a means of collecting unpaid charges and follows the same procedures as property tax collection.

Nevada County participates in the Teeter Plan, a property tax distribution method in which the County pays the City the full amount of the delinquent charges up front and assumes responsibility for collecting from the property owner. This ensures timely revenue for the City even if the property owner delays or fails to pay their tax bill. The method has proven to be a reliable and effective tool for recovering unpaid utility charges.

All affected property owners were notified in accordance with state law. Initial notices were mailed on June 12, 2025, with follow-up letters sent on June 30, 2025. Any delinquent accounts paid before the final submittal to the County will be removed from the list.

As of July 2, 2025, the total amount of delinquent charges eligible for placement on the tax roll is $250,835.69. This amount may be reduced if additional payments are received after the publication of this report and before the City Council meeting. An updated list of delinquent accounts will be provided to the Council in advance of the hearing.

Council Goals/Objectives: This action supports Strategic Plan Goal #7 – Water and Wastewater Systems & Underground Infrastructure, by ensuring sustainable cost recovery for utility services.
