City Council Agenda Item #2
Staff Report
Date: October 21, 2024
To: Mayor and City Council
From: Elisa Arteaga, City Administrator
Subject: Review and Approval of Resolution No. 2024-R-039: A Resolution of The City Council of The City of Gridley Approving the Attestation of Veracity of the 2023 Power Source Disclosure Report, the 2023 Power Content Label and Submission of The Report to The California Energy Commission
Recommendation
City staff respectfully recommends that the City Council adopt a Resolution approving the attestation of veracity for the 2023 Power Source Disclosure Report and submission of the report to the California Energy Commission.

Background
Under State law (Public Utilities Code Sections 398.4 and 398.5), retail suppliers of electricity must annually (1) disclose the type of generation resources (e.g., hydroelectric, solar, natural gas etc.) provided to their customers in the form of a Power Content Label (“PCL”), and (2) report this same information, together with supporting documentation in verified form, to the California Energy Commission (“CEC”), in the form of a Power Source Disclosure Report (“PSD”). The intent of the report is to educate customers through the disclosure of accurate, reliable, and simple to understand information regarding the generation attributes of the energy being provided by their service provider. Gridley City staff annually collects generation and energy procurement data necessary to prepare the annual PSD Report. This report is filed with the CEC each year. In May 2024, staff compiled the annual PSD report.

The CEC recently updated regulations for the power source disclosure report and changed the prior procedures. Primarily, the changes added a provision that the governing board of publicly owned utilities approve, at a public meeting, the attestation of the veracity of the annual power disclosure report.

The City’s Power Content Label is attached. The Label lists the percentages for the City’s energy mix.

The energy mix includes both renewable, carbon free, and some carbon-based energy. The City’s renewable and carbon free generation is better than the State average.

The City and Northern California Power Agency (“NCPA”) staff worked collaboratively to compile and present the numbers shown in the PSD and to confirm the accuracy and consistency of the data. This effort included cross checking numbers from the California Independent System Operator, NCPA generation metering, validations of market purchases from unspecified sources, and customer sales records. Through the process of cross checking by City staff, the City is assured that the PSD and PCL contain the most accurate information for the public.

A RESOLUTION OF THE CITY COUNCIL OF THE CITY OF GRIDLEY APPROVING THE ATTESTATION OF VERACITY FOR THE 2023 POWER SOURCE DISCLOSURE REPORT, 2023 POWER CONTENT

LABEL AND SUBMISSION OF THE REPORT TO THE CALIFORNIA ENERGY COMMISSION WHEREAS, the City of Gridley owns and operates a publicly owned utility subject to certain laws and requirements of the State Legislature; and WHEREAS, Public Utility Code 398.4 and 398.5 establish a Power Source Disclosure (“PSD”) program that requires retail sellers of electricity to annually submit a power source disclosure report to the California Energy Commission; and WHEREAS, the Gridley Electric Utility is a retail seller of electricity as defined by the PSD Program and is therefore required to file a PSD report and post a Power Content Label; and WHEREAS, the governing body of a publicly owned utility must review and approve the PSD and veracity of an associated attestation submitted to the California Energy Commission; and
WHEREAS, Gridley staff prepared and submitted the 2023 Annual Power Source Disclosure Report to the Energy Commission in accordance with the timelines of the regulation; and
WHEREAS, the continued administrative action to review and submit the power source disclosure and related reports does not constitute a project under California Environmental Quality Act (“CEQA”) guidelines and is therefore exempt from further environmental review.

NOW, THEREFORE, BE IT RESOLVED, that the City Council of the City of Gridley does hereby;

1. Find that continue administrative actions are exempt from CEQA and no further environmental review is needed.

2. Approve the attestation of veracity for the 2023 Power Source Disclosure Report, the Power Content Label and submission of the report to the California Energy Commission.

I HEREBY CERTIFY that the foregoing resolution was introduced, passed, and adopted by the City Council of the City of Gridley at a regular meeting held on the 21st, day of October, 2024, by the following vote:

City Council Agenda Item #3
Staff Report
Date: October 21, 2024
To: Mayor and City Council
From: Chip Fowler, Fire Chief
Subject: Approval of Resolution No 2024-R-040: A Resolution of the City Council of the City of Gridley Authorizing the Gridley Fire Department to receive a Rural Fire Capacity Grant
Recommendation
Staff respectfully requests the City Council approve Resolution 2024-R-0XX to allow the Gridley Fire Department to receive a Rural Fire Capacity Grant
Background
For several years the City of Gridley has been successful in receiving Rural Fire Capacity (RFC, previously known as Volunteer Fire Assistance, or VFA) Grants that are used to purchase Personal Protective Equipment (PPE) for its volunteer firefighters who assist career firefighters to protect and serve the City of Gridley. The funding of the grant is vital for replacement of aging and worn PPE. The grant is a cost-effective mode for replacement. The cost of outfitting a single volunteer exceeds $5,000.00. PPE has a shelf life of 10 years and due to the nature of the profession, is subject to extreme use. There are approximately 15 volunteer firefighters that protect the Gridley area and replacement of PPE is ongoing as funding comes available.

Financial Impact
This year’s Grant is in the amount of $9756.00, which is a 50% match with the State of California. The City of Gridley’s match of this grant is $4878.00.

Compliance with City Council Strategic Plan or Budget Goals This effort complies with the City of Gridley’s Budget Goals to reduce taxpayer’s expenses by finding grant funding to offset budget impacts.

City Council Agenda Item #5
Staff Report
Date: October 21, 2024
To: Mayor and City Council
From: Elisa Arteaga, City Administrator
Subject: State Route 99 Waterline Relocation Project – Construction Management and Inspection Services Task Order
Recommendation
City staff respectfully recommend that the City Council authorize the City Administrator to execute a Task Order with 4Leaf, Inc. in the amount of $113,867 and a budget of $125,000. Task Order CM-01 for Construction Management Services will include construction management, inspection services and materials testing for SR-99 Waterline Relocation Project. The contract is based on Time and Material rates and is subject to change based on actual time of construction.

Background
The City has been partnered with BCAG and Caltrans for the Complete Streets Improvement Project on State Route 99 that runs all the way through the City of Gridley. The project started as a Caltrans pavement maintenance effort but thought years of community outreach and coordination between the local agencies, millions of dollars of additional funding have been secured to improve safety and beautify the City. The improvements proposed in the Complete Streets Project include new ADA compliant 8-foot sidewalks separated from traffic and accessible for bicycles, landscaping, uniform lighting, and a storm drain system.

As a result of the improvements, sections of the City’s watermain in the State right of way conflict with the proposed drainage system and require relocation. The sections of the waterline that need relocation to avoid conflicts are located at the intersection of Sheldon Ave and a section from Obermeyer Ave. to Archer Ave. The relocation will lower the section of pipe at Sheldon Ave and will shift the pipe west into the northbound travel lane form Obermeyer Ave to Acher Ave to provide the minimum separation requirements between the future storm drain and watermain. In total, approximately 1,400 feet of pipe will be replaced, and upsized, most of which are over 50 years old and made of Asbestos Concrete.

To meet the current schedule for the construction of the Complete Streets Improvements, the relocation of the waterline needs to be completed by March 1, 2025.

On September 3rd, 2024, the City Council authorized the City Administrator to execute professional service agreement contracts with four firms for the On-call construction management and inspection services for the City. Staff requested proposals for construction management and inspection from all four firms on the on-call list. 4 Leaf, Inc. provided the lowest cost estimate for the proposed work. The table below lists cost received from each firm.

X Regular
Special
Closed
Emergency
Firm CM/RE Materials Testing Total
4Leaf, Inc. $81,242 $32,625 $113,867
Ghirardelli $92,955 $61,093.00 $154,048
Gannett Fleming $109,161 $53,315 $162,476
UNICO $74,350 $42,042 $116,392
Financial Impact
The portion of the project is budgeted in the City’s FY-24/25 CIP Budget for the water line project.

However, if the use of the construction contingency is required later in construction, this contract could put the project over the original budget amount. Staff is working on budget adjustments and will report on any recommended budget adjustments during the mid-year budget review.

Compliance with City Council Strategic Plan or Budget Goals The City Council and City staff are committed to providing effective leadership while providing quality cost-effective local government services.

City Council Agenda Item #6
Staff Report
Date: October 21, 2024
To: Mayor and City Council
From: Elisa Arteaga, City Administrator
Subject: City of Gridley Cash Investment Policy
Recommended Action
Staff respectfully requests the City Council approve and adopt the City of Gridley Cash Investment Policy.

Purpose
The purpose of this report is to recommend the approval of the City’s proposed Cash Investment Policy, which is designed to optimize the management and investment of the City’s available funds while ensuring safety, liquidity, and yield. Municipalities often have significant amounts of public funds that are not immediately required for operational expenses. In order to maximize the value of these funds for the benefit of the City and its residents, it is crucial to establish a well-defined Cash Investment Policy. The proposed policy outlines the guidelines for investing the City’s idle cash in various short-term and long-term financial instruments, ensuring that public funds are managed with a balance of safety, liquidity, and yield. The approval of the City’s Cash Investment Policy will allow the City to manage its financial resources more effectively and efficiently, ensuring that public funds are invested safely and productively.

Background
On October 7th, 2024 Council approved the Agreement with Meeder Investment Group, an agency that specializes in delivering personalized, hands-on investment portfolios for public agencies. In order to establish this process and move forward with investments as outlined in the agreement, the City should have a cash investment policy. Furthermore, the investment policy was previously reviewed by the city auditors and there were no concerns with the policy and to ensure proper oversight, routine reporting on investment performance will be provided to City Council.

Financial Impact
The adoption of this policy is expected to result in increased investment income, though specific estimates will vary based on market conditions and investment strategies. The City will benefit from additional revenue with minimal operational costs associated with policy implementation.

Compliance with City Council Strategic Plan or Budget Goals The policy provides clear guidelines for investment activities, improving transparency and accountability in the management of public funds. This recommendation is consistent with our ongoing effort to be responsive and transparent regarding all business transactions and financial matters.

Attachment: 1. City of Gridley Cash Investment Policy Draft X Regular
Special
Closed
Emergency
City of Gridley, CA Investment Policy
It is the Policy of the City of Gridley, to invest public funds in a manner that will provide in priority order, maximum security, adequate liquidity, and sufficient yield while meeting the daily cash flow demands of the City and conforming to California Government Code Section 53600, and related statutes and regulations governing the investment of public funds.

Purpose
This statement is intended to provide guidelines for prudent investment of the City of Gridley’stemporary inactive cash and outline the policies for maximizing the efficiency of the City’s cash management system.

The City’s ultimate investment goal is to invest public funds in a manner that will provide the highest investment return with the maximum security while meeting the short and long-term cash flow demands and conforming to all state statutes governing the investment of public funds.

Scope
The Investment Policy covers all City funds.

Prudence
The standard of prudence to be used by the investment official shall be the “prudent investor standard” as outlined in California Government Code Section 53600.3. It shall be applied in the context of managing the overall portfolio.

The City’s Finance Director will maintain and update investment policies and procedures. The procedures intend to ensure that the investment objectives and safeguards stated in this Policy are effectively communicated to all officials involved in the investment of public funds and adequately reflect the intent of the “Prudent Investor” rule. The procedures will be maintained on file with the City Treasurer and the Finance Director.

Objectives
The primary objectives, in order of priority, of the City’s investment activities shall be:
a. Safety. It shall be the primary duty and responsibility of those authorized to invest the City’s funds to protect, preserve, and maintain cash and investments placed in trust on behalf of the citizens of the City. Diversification is allowed within the guidelines of California Government Code Section 53601
b. Liquidity. An adequate amount of funds shall be maintained in liquid short-term securities, which can be converted to cash to meet disbursement requirements. Since all cash requirements cannot be anticipated, investments in securities with active secondary or resale markets will be used. Emphasis will be on marketable securities with low sensitivity to market risk.
c. Yield. The investment pools and funds shall be managed to attain the maximum rate of return given the constraints of the safety guidelines and liquidity objectives as mentioned above.

Delegation of Authority and Responsibilities:

In accordance with the State of California Government Code section 53607, the City Council has delegated the authority to invest with the City’s Finance Director.

Within the constraints set forth in the Policy, the Finance Director can direct investment strategy and approve investment transactions for the City's investment portfolio. The Finance Director who oversees treasurer functions for the city is responsible for the following:
• Developing projections of the City's cash requirements for operating needs. • Reviewing the liquidity position of the investment portfolio. • Ensuring that the City's cash position is consistent with operating requirements. • Preparing appropriate investment reports.
• Developing, implementing, and monitoring controls over investments. • Record keeping for investment transactions.

Investment Manager: The City may engage the services of an external investment management adviser to assist in managing the City’s investment portfolio in a manner consistent with the City’s objectives. Such advisers may be granted discretion to purchase and sell investment securities in accordance with the Policy. Such advisers must be registered with the Security and Exchange Commission and possess experience in public funds investment management. All broker/dealers selected by an external adviser must comply with the requirements of California Government Code Section 53601.5.

Ethics and Conflicts of Interest
Officers and employees involved in the investment process shall refrain from personal business activity that could conflict with the proper execution of the investment program or impair their ability to make impartial investment decisions. Employees and investment officials shall comply with the disclosure and disqualification requirements required by state law and any applicable regulations, including those adopted by the Fair Political Practices Commission or FPPC. In addition, the FPPC’s Statement of Economic Interests (Form 700) shall be completed annually and submitted to the City Clerk for all individuals involved in the investment of public funds.

Internal Controls
Internal controls shall be established and maintained to prevent losses of public funds arising from fraud, employee error, misrepresentation by third parties, or imprudent actions by employees and officers of the City.

Controls deemed most significant include segregation of duties, separation of transaction authority from accounting and record keeping, custodial safekeeping, clear delegation of authority, specific limitations regarding securities losses and remedial action, control over wire transfers, minimizing the number of authorized investment officials, and documentation of transactions and strategies.

The Finance Director shall establish an annual independent review process by an external auditor. This review will provide internal control by assuring compliance with the policies and procedures outlined in this document.?

City Council Agenda Item #7
Staff Report
Date: October 21, 2024
To: Mayor and City Council
From: Elisa Arteaga, City Administrator
Subject: Taxing Agency Compensation Agreements for Former Redevelopment Agency Property Sales
Recommendation
Staff recommends that the Gridley City Council approve the attached “form of” templates for Taxing Agency Compensation Agreements (“Agreements”) and authorize staff to negotiate with taxing agencies that receive a share of sales proceeds from former City of Gridley Redevelopment Agency (“Redevelopment Agency”) property sales based on the terms in the Agreements.

Background
The City of Gridley Redevelopment Agency (“Redevelopment Agency”) dissolved in 2012 following the statewide dissolution of redevelopment. In 2015, the Successor Agency to the City of Gridley Redevelopment Agency (“Successor Agency”) prepared a Long-Range Property Management Plan (““LRPMP”) describing its plan to use or dispose of five properties owned by the Redevelopment Agency. The California Department of Finance (“DOF”) approved the proposed use or disposition of all properties in the LRPMP on December 31, 2015.

Figure 1 displays a map of each LRPMP property, which were subdivided into ten Industrial Park parcels. Table 1 summarizes the proposed use and sales status of each parcel.

Taxing Agency Compensation Agreements
DOF approved LRPMP Parcel 2B, now known as Industrial Park Parcels 6-9, to be retained by the City for future development as a corporation yard, community park for organized sports, and transit facility. The LRPMP stated, “no other properties within the city are available for purchase, nor is the city in a position to purchase due to budget shortfalls.” The LRPMP notes that Gridley is a Disadvantaged Community whose population is underserved with respect to park space. The LRPMP stated the City will pursue and execute a compensation agreement with taxing entities.

The City will record a Quit Claim Deed to transfer ownership of Parcels 6-9 from the Redevelopment Agency to the City.

Industrial Park Parcels 6, 7 and 9
The City plans to retain Parcels 6, 7, and 9 as governmental uses as intended by the LRPMP:
• Parcel 6 will serve as a City sports complex as approved in the LRPMP. The City has executed a Grant Deed and Deed Restriction dated March 12, 2024 transferring ownership to the City and restricting use as a sports complex to comply with grant funding from the California Department of Parks and Recreation.
• Parcel 7 will serve as a City Corporation Yard as approved in the LRPMP. • Parcel 9 will serve as a City Corporation Yard. The City and County of Butte had previously negotiated a land swap for Parcel 9 to serve as a County Corporation Yard, however, the County cancelled the agreement. The City now plans to retain the property as a City Corporation Yard, which is a public use as intended by the LRPMP.

The City will need to negotiate taxing agency compensation agreements with each affected taxing entity that receives a share of property tax from the properties. The City will propose retaining Parcels 6, 7, and 9 for $0 to carry out the governmental uses intended by the LRPMP. Each taxing agency will need to agree to the proposed $0 transfer. Compensation agreements do not require Oversight Board approval however they need to be approved by each taxing agency’s governing board.

If taxing agencies do not agree to transferring the properties to the City for $0, the City will need to negotiate a new sales price or plan to dispose of the properties.

Industrial Park Parcel 8
The LRPMP approved retaining Industrial Park Parcel 8 for future development, which was originally intended to be a transit facility park and ride. The City now proposes selling Parcel 8 for fair market value.

The City will need to negotiate taxing agency compensation agreements to sell Parcel 8 for $307,620.72 pursuant to a Purchase and Sale Agreement dated September 6, 2023. The proposed Agreement distributes net sales proceeds based on each affected taxing agency’s Assembly Bill 8 property tax share. See Table 2 for each taxing agency’s share for 2023-24.

Table 2: Taxing Agency Shares of Net Sales Proceeds
Note: If implementing a taxing agency compensation agreement, Net Sales Proceeds (after deducting sales costs such as escrow fees) are distributed to taxing agencies directly by the City. If implementing a PSA for LRPMP properties approved for sale, Net Sales Proceeds are remitted to the County Auditor-Controller to distribute to taxing agencies.

Source: Butte County Auditor-Controller, RSG
The prospective buyer has extended escrow to wait for taxing agency approval. They also have the option to cancel the sale and reclaim their $10,000 deposit. The City Attorney has advised the PSA does not hold the City liable for costs of canceling the sale other than returning the deposit.

Fiscal Impact
Approval of the recommended action will allow City staff to negotiate retaining three parcels for $0 as a governmental use and receive $39,033 for the sale of Industrial Park Parcel 8. This is subject to approval by all taxing agencies and their governing boards.

Compliance with City Council Strategic LRPMP or Budget Goals This recommendation is consistent with the Long Range Property Management Plan and our ongoing effort to be responsive and transparent regarding all business transactions and financial matters.

G. Pursuant to Health and Safety Code section 34191.5, added by AB 1484, the Successor Agency prepared a Long-Range Property Management Plan (“LRPMP”) addressing the disposition and use of the real property owned by the Redevelopment Agency. The Redevelopment Agency had purchased property located near the southeast boarder of the City along the Southern Pacific Railway to create an industrial park to strengthen industrial opportunities and job expansion in the City (“Industrial Park”). The LRPMP properties include Parcel A retained for government use, Parcel 1 designated for Gridley/Taxing Agency Compensation Agreement Page 2

The LRPMP was approved by the Oversight Board on December 29, 2015 by Resolution No. 2015-OC-004 and duly submitted to the California Department of Finance (“DOF”) in accordance with Section 34191.5. A map of the LRPMP properties can be found in Exhibit A, Figure 1.

H. DOF, by letter dated December 31, 2015, approved the LRPMP, inclusive of the request to transfer the Agency Property to the City for future development provided it reaches compensation agreements with all the affected taxing entities pursuant to Health and Safety Code Section 34180(f)(1).

The Sales Agreement is provided as Exhibit B.

L. According to the City, the sale of the underutilized Agency Property is critical to creation of the Industrial park.

M. The City believes that the sale of the Agency Property directly to the Developer will, if approved through compensation agreements with all of the affected taxing entities, satisfy the recommendations of DOF.

N. The taxing entities that receive “residual distributions” through the redevelopment agency dissolution process under Dissolution Law and that would receive a portion of the sale proceeds if the Agency Property were to be sold at fair market value (hereinafter the "affected taxing entities") are listed, together with their respective pro rata shares of such distribution(s), in Exhibit C, attached hereto and incorporated herein by this reference; the [District]’s share is identified as "[Label in Attachment]”.

NOW, THEREFORE, in consideration of the foregoing recitals, which are incorporated herein by this reference, and the mutual promises in this Agreement, the parties agree as follows:

Gridley/Taxing Agency Compensation Agreement Page 3
Section 1. The City asserts and represents that each of the foregoing recitals, and each of the following, are true and accurate statements:
a. Exhibit C lists the affected taxing entities and their respective pro rata shares of property tax revenues from property within the boundaries of the Gridley Redevelopment Project Area, as provided by the AuditorController of the County of Butte (“Auditor-Controller”). b. The estimated incremental increase in the distribution to be derived by the [District] as an affected taxing entity as a result of the sale of the Agency Property at fair market value is $XXX, as set forth in the column of Exhibit C titled “Parcel 8,” which Exhibit is attached hereto and incorporated herein by this reference.
c. The estimated fair market value of the Agency Property, Parcel 8, as of the effective date of this Agreement is $307,620.72.

Section 2. a. The [District] approves the sale of the Agency Property to the Developer for development for the sum of $307,620.72 ("disposition price"), provided that the Agency Property is developed as part of the Industrial Park as contemplated by the City and the Developer. The [District] understands that the compensation to the [District] from the contribution of the Agency Property will consist of increased property tax revenues to be derived from development of the Industrial Park (as estimated in Exhibit C).

FORM OF

COMPENSATION AGREEMENT
GRIDLEY INDUSTRIAL PARK PARCELS 6, 7 & 9
This COMPENSATION AGREEMENT (this “Agreement”) is entered into as of _______________________, 2024 (the “Effective Date”), by and between CITY OF GRIDLEY, a California municipal corporation (“City”) and the [DISTRICT], a political subdivision of the State of California (“[District]”).

ABx1 26 added a new Part 1.85 to Division 24 of the California Health and Safety Code (Health and Safety Code Section 34170 et seq.; the “Dissolution Law”).

On February 1, 2012, the Redevelopment Agency was dissolved.

D. On June 27, 2012, the California Legislature enacted, and the Governor signed, Assembly Bill 1484 (“AB 1484”), which, among other things, made certain revisions to the Dissolution Law.

E. The Successor Agency is a separate public entity and is responsible for taking certain actions pursuant to the Dissolution Law.

G. Pursuant to Health and Safety Code section 34191.5, added by AB 1484, the Successor Agency prepared a Long-Range Property Management Plan (“LRPMP”) addressing the disposition and use of the real property owned by the Redevelopment Agency. The Redevelopment Agency had purchased property located near the southeast boarder of the City along the Southern Pacific Railway to create an industrial park to strengthen industrial opportunities and job expansion in the City (“Industrial Park”). The Gridley/Taxing Agency Compensation Agreement Page 2
LRPMP properties include Parcel A retained for government use, Parcel 1 designated for sale, Parcel 2A designated for sale, and Parcel 2B retained for future development. The LRPMP was approved by the Oversight Board on December 29, 2015 by Resolution No. 2015-OC-004 and duly submitted to the California Department of Finance (“DOF”) in accordance with Section 34191.5. A map of the LRPMP properties can be found in Exhibit A, Figure 1.

H. DOF, by letter dated December 31, 2015, approved the LRPMP, inclusive of the request to transfer the Agency Properties to the City for future development provided it reaches compensation agreements with all the affected taxing entities pursuant to Health and Safety Code Section 34180(f)(1).

I. The LRPMP stated a parcel map would be created, further subdividing the parcels. A map of the subdivided parcels can be found in Exhibit A, Figure 2. The parcels make up the Industrial Park.

J. LRPMP Parcel 2B (Industrial Park Parcels 6-9) was approved to be retained by the City for future development as a corporation yard, community park for organized sports, and transit facility. The LRPMP states, “no other properties within the City are available for purchase, nor is the city in a position to purchase due to budget shortfalls.” It further notes that Gridley is a Disadvantaged Community whose population is underserved with respect to park space.

K. Parcels retained by the City for future development require a compensation agreement to be executed with all affected taxing agencies who receive a share of property tax from the property pursuant to Health and Safety Code Section 34191.5(c)(2)(A)(iii).

L. The City seeks to rejuvenate the Industrial Park area and intend to develop Parcel 6 (APN 021-240-032) as a City-owned recreational sports complex and Parcels 7 (APN 021-270-047) and 9 (APN 021-270-049) as a City corporate yard (the “Agency Properties”) as described in the LRPMP.

M. The City has executed a Grant Deed and Deed Restriction dated March 12, 2024 transferring ownership to Parcel 6 to the City and restricting use as a sports complex to comply with grant funding from the California Department of Parks and Recreation.

Such documents are provided as Exhibit B.

N. According to the City, the development of the Agency Properties are proposed is critical to creation of the Industrial Park and carry out the intent of the LRPMP.
