Domestic Violence Awareness Month 2023 Proclamation
Whereas, although progress has been made toward preventing and ending domestic violence and providing support to survivors and their families, important work remains to be done; Whereas, domestic violence programs in California provide essential, lifesaving services for survivors, their children, and communities;
Whereas, there is a need to provide education, awareness and understanding of domestic violence and its causes;
Whereas, approximately 40% of California women experience physical intimate partner violence in their lifetimes;
Whereas, domestic violence affects people of all genders, sexual orientations, ages, racial, ethnic, cultural, social, religious, and economic groups in the United States and here in California; Whereas, the marginalization of certain groups in society, including undocumented individuals, transgender individuals, and people living with disabilities, increases their vulnerability to domestic violence;
Whereas, domestic violence is the third leading cause of homelessness among families in the United States
Whereas, children exposed to domestic violence can experience long-term consequences including difficulty at school, substance abuse, behavioral problems in adolescence, and serious adult health problems
NOW, THEREFORE, I, Michael W. Farr, Mayor of the City of Gridley, in recognition of the important work done by domestic violence programs, do hereby proclaim the month of October 2023 as Domestic Violence Awareness Month and urge all citizens to participate in the scheduled activities and programs sponsored by Catalyst Domestic Violence Services to work towards building healthy relationships and eliminating intimate partner violence. __________________________

Subject: Gridley Industrial Park Surplus Lands Declarations Resolution No. 2023-R-032: A Resolution of the City Council Declaring Certain Property as Surplus Land and Directing the City Administrator to Follow the Procedures Set Forth in the Surplus Lands Act for their Disposition Resolution No. 2023-R-033: A Resolution of the City Council Declaring Certain Property as Exempt Surplus Land and Directing the City Administrator to Follow the Procedures Set Forth in the Surplus Lands Act for its Disposition Recommendation
Staff respectfully requests the City Council:
• Adopt Resolution No. 2023-R-032; and,
• Adopt Resolution No. 2023-R-033
Discussion
The City of Gridley (“City”) owns six properties that it intends to sell for non-public agency use and one property that it intends to transfer to the County of Butte (“County”) for the County’s use (see Table 1 and Figure 1). The properties were purchased by the former Redevelopment Agency of the City of Gridley. Their disposition is subject to a Long Range Property Management Plan (“LRPMP”) approved by the California Department of Finance on December 31, 2015 as part of the redevelopment dissolution process.
The Surplus Lands Act (the “Act”) was substantially amended by Assembly Bill 1486 (Ting) in 2019 after the LRPMP’s adoption. The Act requires the City to declare City-owned properties as surplus land or exempt surplus land before they are sold to be developed with something other than a qualified public agency use. If declared surplus land, the City must issue a 60- day Notice of Availability to give housing sponsors registered with the State and certain public agencies priority to make an offer to purchase the site. Alternately, land may be declared exempt surplus land if the proposed use meets certain exemptions defined in the Act. These requirements apply to LRPMP properties whose disposition was not complete by December 31, 2022.

The City must adopt a resolution declaring the properties as surplus land or exempt surplus land before disposing of the properties.
Surplus Land
Properties 1-6 (Industrial Park Parcel Nos. 2-5, 8, and 10) must be declared surplus land because the City proposes selling them on the open market rather than retaining them for a qualified public agency use. City staff recommends approving Resolution No. 2023-R-XXX declaring the properties as surplus land and authorizing the City Administrator to take actions necessary for their disposition.
If approved, City staff will issue a Notice of Availability to housing sponsors registered with the State and other public agencies as required by the Act, such as the County, parks districts, and school districts. These parties have a 60-day period to inform the City in writing if they are interested in the properties. If a written notice is received, the City must enter into a 90- day period of good faith negotiations (begins on the first day after the end of the 60-day notice period). If the price or terms cannot be agreed upon after the 90-day period, the City may sell the properties to other parties.
If the City receives more than one letter of interest during the 60-day period, first priority must be given to entities proposing to develop housing where at least 25 percent of the units will be affordable to lower income households. If more than one such proposal is received, priority will be given to the proposal with the greatest number of affordable units. If more than one proposal specifies the same number of affordable units, priority will be given to the proposal that has the lowest average affordability level. Note the Act also does not impose requirements to alter local land use or zoning that might prohibit a residential use. The properties are zoned M-2 Heavy Industrial, which does not permit residential use even with a conditional use permit.
Even if the Notice of Availability does not result in any offers or successful negotiations, the Act imposes requirements on properties that are subsequently sold on the open market and developed with 10 or more units. At least 15 percent must be sold or rented to lower income households with an affordability period of 55-years for rental and 45-years for ownership housing (Government Code Section 54233).
The Act does not impose any requirements on sale price so land may be sold for fair market or appraised value.
Exempt Surplus Land
Property 7 (Industrial Park Parcel No. 9) may be declared exempt surplus land because the City has negotiated an agreement with the County of Butte (“County”) to transfer the property to the County for their use. In exchange, the County is transferring a property near the City’s corporate yard to the City.
City staff recommends approving Resolution No. 2023-R-XXX declaring the property as exempt surplus land and authorizing the City Administrator to take actions necessary for its disposition. The resolution declaring exempt surplus land will be sent to HCD for its review.
HCD requests a copy of the resolution at least 30 days prior to the disposition of exempt surplus property.
The actions by the City Council to consider the resolutions can be made for each by a motion, second, and a roll call vote to direct city staff to proceed.
Public Notice
A notice was posted at City Hall, made available at the Administration public counter, and placed on the City website for review.
Environmental Review
The recommended actions to be taken by the City Council are not projects and not subject to CEQA.
Financial Impact
There are no direct or indirect costs to the City.
Compliance with City Council Strategic Plan or Budget Goals This recommendation is consistent with the ongoing effort to be responsive and transparent regarding all land use and administrative matters.
