CITY OF GROVER BEACH

POLICIES AND PROCEDURES FOR CONDUCT AND DECORUM AT COUNCIL MEETINGS (Pursuant to Resolution No. 07-44, adopted 04-16-07, revised 02-18-2020) The City Council and staff welcomes and encourages civic participation and debate on issues. The Council values the public’s opinion and in every Council meeting invite and encourage the public to address the Council on any matter of interest. The Council adopted these policies and procedures for appropriate conduct and decorum at Council meetings and establish guidance for public participation during Council meetings.

These policies will foster and provide greater clarity to preserve the intent of open government and maintain a positive environment for public input and City Council decision-making.

1.0 DECORUM AND ORDER – IN GENERAL

1.1 The presiding officer is responsible for the maintenance of order and decorum at all times.

1.2 The presiding officer shall determine all points of order subject to the right of any Council member to appeal to the City Council by majority vote. If any appeal is taken, the question shall be “Shall the decision of the presiding officer be sustained” in which event a majority vote of the Council shall govern and conclusively determine such question of order.

1.3 All Council members, staff members and members of the public should speak respectfully and avoid the use of profanity, vulgarity and slanderous comments. Recognizing that the First Amendment precludes the City Council from prohibiting speakers from speaking based upon the content of their speech, the presiding officer shall use their best efforts, short of enforcement action, to remind and encourage all participating in the meeting to keep their speech respectful towards others and within bounds appropriate for children and persons of sensitivity toward course language as a courtesy to others present or otherwise viewing Council meetings.

2.0 DECORUM AND ORDER – COUNCIL MEMBERS

2.1 Manner of Speaking.

Any Council member desiring to speak shall first address the presiding officer. Upon recognition by the presiding officer, the Council member shall speak only to the question under debate.

U2.1(a) Questioning Staff.

A Council member desiring to question the staff should address his question to the City Manager, or, in appropriate cases, the City Clerk or City Attorney, who shall be entitled either to answer the inquiry or to designate some staff member for that purpose. Such a designation may be made at the time of any staff presentation or on the agenda listing for the item.

U2.1(b) Interruptions.

Once recognized, a Council member shall not be interrupted while speaking unless called to order by the presiding officer; unless a point of order is raised by another Council member, or unless the speaker chooses to yield to questions from another Council member.

3.0 DECORUM AND ORDER – STAFF

3.1 City Manager Responsibilities
The City Manager is responsible for ensuring that members of the administrative staff observe the rules of decorum and order set forth in this Policy.

3.2 AAddressing the City Council
Any administrative staff member desiring to address the City Council or members of the public shall first be recognized by the presiding officer. All remarks shall be addressed to the presiding officer and not to any individual Council Member or member of the public. Administrative staff members shall accord the utmost courtesy to the City Council, other administrative staff members and the public.

4.0 DECORUM AND ORDER – MEMBERS OF THE PUBLIC

4.1 AAddressing the City Council
Any member of the public desiring to address the City Council or members of the public shall first be recognized by the presiding officer at the appropriate place on the agenda. All remarks shall be addressed to the presiding officer and not to any individual Council Member, City Manager, City Attorney or member of the administrative staff or member of the public.

4.2 Time Limitation for Addressing the City Council
Public comment when addressing the City Council shall be generally limited to three (3) minutes per speaker. Depending on the extent of the agenda and the number of persons desiring to speak on an issue, the presiding officer may, at the beginning of the hearing, set a different time limit for each speaker. Any person may speak for a longer period of time upon approval from the presiding officer, when deemed necessary, for instance when a person is speaking on behalf of a group or has a graphic or slide presentation requiring more time.

4.3 Failure to Yield, Disruptions
Any person who refuses to relinquish the floor after their allotted time or while attending the City Council meeting engages in conduct or speech which disrupts the business of the meeting shall be brought to order and/or removed from the room if the sergeant-at-arms is so directed by the presiding officer.

Disruptive remarks from the audience, stamping of feet, clapping, whistles, yells and similar demonstrations shall not be permitted by the presiding officer who may direct the sergeant-at-arms to remove such offenders from the room.

4.4 Prosecution
Aggravated cases shall be prosecuted on appropriate complaint signed by the presiding officer.

5.0 ENFORCEMENT OF DECORUM

5.1 The Chief of Police or his designee shall be the ex-officio sergeant-at-arms of the City Council. The sergeant-at-arms shall carry out all legal and valid orders and instructions given by the presiding officer for the purpose of maintaining order and decorum in the Council Chamber. Upon instructions from the presiding officer, it shall be the duty of the sergeant-at-arms to remove any disorderly person from the Council Chambers or place the disorderly person under arrest or both.

5.2 As set forth in Government Code Section 54957.9, in the event that any meeting is willfully interrupted by a person or group of persons so as to render the orderly conduct of such meeting unfeasible or impedes the ability of the Council to hold the meeting, and order cannot be restored by the removal of individuals who are willfully interrupting the meeting, the presiding officer may order the meeting room cleared and continue in session. Only matters appearing on the agenda may be considered in such a session. Duly accredited representatives of the press or other news media, except those participating in the disturbance, shall be allowed to attend any session held pursuant to this Section. Nothing in this Section shall prohibit the City Council from establishing a procedure for readmitting an individual or individuals not responsible for willfully disturbing the orderly conduct of the meeting.

CITY COUNCIL STAFF REPORT
Agenda Item No. 5
Placement: Consent
Meeting Date: October 27, 2025
TO: Honorable Mayor and City Council
FROM: Matthew Bronson, City Manager
PREPARED BY: Megan Martin, Community Development Director SUBJECT: Second Reading and Adoption of an Ordinance to Amend Municipal Code Title XV, Chapter 150 (Building Regulations), to Adopt by Reference the 2025 California Building Standards Codes (California Code of Regulations, Title 24) with Local Amendments, and the 2024 International Property Maintenance Code with Local Amendments; and Resolution Setting Forth Related Findings.

RECOMMENDATION
Conduct the second reading and adopt an Ordinance to amend the Grover Beach Municipal Code Title XV, Chapter 150 (Building Regulations), to adopt by reference the 2025 California Building Standards Codes with local amendments and the 2024 International Property Maintenance Code with local amendments; and adopt a Resolution setting forth the pertinent findings and substantial evidence required by the California Health and Safety Code to support local amendments.

BACKGROUND
Overview
The State of California, through the California Building Standards Commission (CBSC), mandates that all cities and counties update the building and construction codes every three years, a process known as the “tri-annual update”. The CBSC publishes the California Building Standards Code, commonly referred to as the “Building Code”, on July 1, which then becomes effective statewide on January 1 of the following year. The City is responsible for adopting the California Building Standards Code by amending Title XV (formerly Title VIII), Chapter 150 – Building Regulations of the Grover Beach Municipal Code (GBMC).

On October 14, 2025, the City Council (Council) held a public hearing to introduce the ordinance for first reading to amend Chapter 150 of Title XV of the GBMC and adopt by reference the 2025 California Building Standards Code with local amendments and the 2024 International Property Maintenance Code by reference with local amendments (Attachment 1); and consider a Resolution setting forth the pertinent findings and substantial evidence required by the California Health and Safety Code to support those local amendments (Attachment 2).

Local Amendments
The local amendments (shown in Attachment 1) have been reviewed for consistency with State Housing Law and the California Building Standards Code and are summarized as follows:

Staff Report: 2nd Reading and Adoption 2025 Building Code Update Page 2 October 27, 2025
General Updates
• Adopts by reference the California Building Standards Code with local amendments • Adopts by reference the 2024 International Property Maintenance Code with local amendments
• Establishes authority, duties, and appointment of the Building Official under the Community Development Director.
• Clarifies permit expiration dates for permits issued to correct code violations.

Local Amendments to Building and Residential Code
• Expands Fire Sprinkler requirements for consistency with existing City amendments and State standards.
• Clarifies thresholds and timelines for determining when fire sprinklers are required for consistent application.
• Incorporates updated definitions and administrative provisions for clarity and alignment with State codes.

Fire Code Local Amendments
• Designates the Five Cities Fire Authority (FCFA) as the Fire Code enforcement agency. • Provides additional clarifying language for fire lane standards, hydrant types, cost recovery, and emergency access.
• Enhances consistency to support FCFA with emergency operations and response, and enforcement of regulations.

Property Maintenance Amendments
• Clarifies maintenance standards and enforcement provisions for improved code compliance.
• Includes minor administrative revisions with no substantive change to requirements.

During the October 14th public hearing, staff conveyed that Assembly Bill 130 (AB 130) restricts local agencies from adopting new “reach codes” or local amendments through 2031 to code sections that impact the construction of residential units. Council subsequently requested that staff research voluntary measures outside of the Building Code that could enhance water conservation in development of residential buildings.

Upon further review, staff determined that it is possible for a local agency to pursue adoption of ordinances during the mid-year code cycle, provided that the provisions and/or programs are voluntary in nature. For example, the CALGreen Code includes Tier 1 and Tier 2 water and energy efficiency standards that developers may choose to implement. The City could consider developing an incentive-based program that encourages developers to incorporate one of these tiers as part of their projects. Given existing workload, staff anticipates this research could be brought to the Council by mid-2026. The water resiliency study that will begin in early 2026 may also inform this work.

Next Steps
Once the Council adopts the 2025 California Building Standards Code with local amendments and 2024 California Property Maintenance Code with local amendments, the ordinance must be Staff Report: 2nd Reading and Adoption 2025 Building Code Update Page 3 October 27, 2025
filed with the CBSC within 15 days of adoption. The submittal includes the adopting ordinance (Attachment 1), and a statement of findings that justify each local amendment (typically based on local climatic, geological, or topographical conditions) (Attachment 2). The CBSC reviews the submittal for compliance and maintains it as part of the public record. The code then becomes effective locally on the same date as the statewide code cycle (January 1, 2026).

ENVIRONMENTAL REVIEW
This action is not a project within the meaning of the California Environmental Quality Act (California Public Resources Code §§ 21000, et seq., “CEQA”) and CEQA Guidelines (Title 14 California Code of Regulations §§ 15000, et seq.) Section 15378(b)(5) and is therefore exempt from CEQA because adoption of the building code is an organizational and administrative activity that will not result in any direct or indirect physical changes in the environment.

FISCAL IMPACT
Adoption of the Ordinance and Resolution will not have a fiscal impact. The cost to administer the code is recovered through permit fees.

ALTERNATIVES
The Council has the following alternatives to consider:

1. Conduct the second reading and adopt an Ordinance to amend the Grover Beach Municipal Code TItle XV, Chapter 150 – Building Regulations, to adopt by reference the 2025 California Building Standards Codes with local amendments and adopt by reference the 2024 International Property Maintenance Code with local amendments; and adopt a Resolution setting forth the pertinent findings and substantial evidence required by the California Health and Safety Code to support local amendments; or

2. Provide alternative direction to staff.

PUBLIC NOTIFICATION
The agenda was posted in accordance with the Brown Act.

RESOLUTION NO. 25-

A RESOLUTION OF THE CITY COUNCIL OF THE CITY OF GROVER BEACH,

CALIFORNIA, ADOPTING LEGISLATIVE FINDINGS SUPPORTING

AMENDMENTS AND CHANGES TO THE CALIFORNIA BUILDING

STANDARDS CODES PURSUANT TO HEALTH AND SAFETY CODE
SECTIONS 17958.5, 17958.7 AND 18941.5
WHEREAS, the Grover Beach City Council intends to pass an ordinance adopting the 2022 California Building Standards Codes and making modifications; and WHEREAS, the California Health and Safety Code Sections 17958.5, 17958.7 and 18941.5 require the governing body of a city, before making any modifications or changes to the California Building Standards Code to make expressed findings that such modifications or changes are reasonably necessary because of local climatic, geographic, or topographic conditions; and
WHEREAS, the Grover Beach City Council finds that a departure from the California Building Standards Codes is reasonably necessary because of local climatic, geographic, or topographic conditions.

NOW, THERFORE, BE IT RESOLVED that the City Council of the City of Grover Beach, California, does hereby :

The City Council has determined that local amendments to the 2025 California Building and Fire Codes are reasonably necessary because of local climatic, geographical, or topographical conditions in the City of Grover Beach and the following legislative findings support the local necessity for the amendments:

1. Climate – The City of Grover Beach is located in a semi-arid Mediterranean type climate.

It annually experiences extended periods of high temperatures with little or no precipitation.

Hot, dry winds, are also common to the area. These climatic conditions cause extreme drying of vegetation and common building materials. In addition, the high winds generated often cause road obstructions such as fallen trees, similar to that experienced during the Category 1 event from February 7, 2024. Frequent periods of drought and low humidity add to the fire danger. This predisposes the area to destructive fires. There are approximately 2980 properties in the Grover Beach area that are subject to some exposure from wildfires. This represents approximately 61% of the properties in Grover Beach. In addition to directly damaging or destroying buildings, these fires also disrupt utility services throughout the area. Nearby areas in the county have a history of such fires, including the Avila Fire, Camp Indonico Fire, and the Las Pilitas Fire.

2. Climate – Water demand in this area challenges the quantity supplied by natural precipitation and, although the population continues to grow, the already-taxed water supply does not. The estimated population of California in 2006 was more than 36 million people. The state is projected to increase in population by nearly 10 million by the year 2030, with 50 percent of that growth centered in Central and Southern California. Due to storage capacities and consumption, and a limited amount of rainfall, future water allocation may not be fully dependable in many areas of the state. Additional alternatives would further reduce the amount of water required for housing units created within an infill Attachment 2
Resolution No. 25- Page 2
community such as Grover Beach. The City's core area continues to become more concentrated, with new mixed-use structures whose occupants, along with the structures themselves, could be vulnerable to uncontrolled fires due to lack of available water. This necessitates the need for additional on-site fire protection features, and alternatives that do not consume as much water.

3. Climate - These dry climatic conditions and winds contribute to the rapid spread of even small fires originating in high-density housing or vegetation. These fires spread very quickly and create a need for increased levels of fire protection. The added protection of fire sprinkler systems and other fire protection features will supplement normal fire department response by providing immediate protection for the building occupants and by containing and controlling the fire spread to the area of origin. Fire sprinkler systems also reduce the use of water for firefighting by extinguishing fires at an early stage. A typical on-site fire sprinkler system will use less than 10% of the water used by a fire department by the time a fire engine unit is dispatched and has the ability to extinguish the fire.

According to the Scottsdale Report, which was a 15-year study of fire sprinkler effectiveness, a fire sprinkler uses an average of 341 gallons of water to control a fire.

Firefighters utilize an average of 2,935 gallons of water when compared to the use of sprinklers.

4. Topographical - Geographic, land use and recent state legislation, such as but not limited to SB 35, SB 330, State ADU Law, SB 684, SB 9 have imposed greater impacts on the City’s limited available land and have resulted in greater density along with a large number of mixed-use projects, combining residential with commercial occupancies, therefore causing a need for on-site suppression systems that utilize both water and other materials to reduce fire hazards.

5. Topographical - Traffic and circulation congestion is an ongoing problem throughout the region. Traffic flow in and through Grover Beach is limited by the transverse by the Grover Heights Hills, which provide limited passage to the north, and the Pacific Ocean to the south. The narrow corridor that Highway 101 occupies is subject to traffic delays under normal conditions and emergency events can render the highway impassable. This has the double effect of preventing traffic from leaving the City and potentially preventing emergency workers, who often live out of town, from entering. At various times, Highway 101 has also been closed north or south of the City due to significant traffic congestion, accidents, and vegetation fires. In addition, roads in the foothills are narrow, and vulnerable to emergency conditions. Some of the older roadways are below current access standards and pose challenges to responding emergency vehicles, especially fire engines. These challenges are exacerbated in the event of an evacuation.

6. Topographical – These topographical conditions combine to create a situation which places fire department response time to fire occurrences at risk, and makes it necessary to provide automatic on-site fire-extinguishing systems and other protection measures to protect occupants and property.

7. Geological – These topographical conditions as stated in findings 4 through 6 combine to create a situation which places fire department response time to fire occurrences at risk and makes it necessary to provide automatic on-site fire-extinguishing systems and other protection measures to protect occupants and property. Previous earthquakes have been accompanied by disruption of traffic flow and fires. A severe seismic event has the potential to negatively impact any rescue or fire suppression activities because it is likely Resolution No. 25- Page 3
to create obstacles similar to those indicated under the high wind section above. With the probability of strong aftershocks there exists a need to provide increased protection for anyone on upper floors of buildings. In addition to gas mains, individual gas and electric service connections to residences may provide both fuel and ignition sources during a seismic event. This situation creates the need for both additional fire protection and automatic on-site fire protection for building occupants.

8. Geographical – The climatic, topographical, and geological conditions described above make it prudent to rely upon automatic fire sprinkler systems and other fire protection measures to mitigate extended fire department response times. Automatic sprinklers and other measures specified in this Ordinance are intended to lessen life safety hazards and keep fires manageable with potentially reduced fire flow (water) requirements for a given structure. How long does it take for a single fire sprinkler to extinguish a fire? According to the Home Fire Sprinkler Coalition, sprinklers can extinguish small fires in as little as 90 seconds using less than one tenth as much water as a fire hose, greatly limiting water damage. Additional fire protection is also justified to match the current resources of firefighting equipment and personnel within the Five Cities Fire Authority which is the fire department for the City of Grover Beach. As California is subjected to the ongoing effects of climate change, local changes to climatic, topographic and geological conditions will likely pose a greater threat to disruption of services and loss of life and property in the event of a disaster.

1. PROBLEM STATEMENT
Describe the city, county, or jurisdiction this grant will impact.

The City of Grover Beach has a population of approximately 13,000 residents and covers 2.3 square miles.

The city experiences significant increases in daily population and traffic due to commercial activities related to the tourism service industry, retail businesses, and the only occupied industrial area in the region.

Additionally, our service population is augmented by the nearby regional communities that make up the "Five Cities" area, which has a combined population of around 45,000 residents. The total population also swells daily due to the influx of over 2 million tourists annually. Located halfway between Los Angeles and San Francisco, directly west of Bakersfield, Grover Beach experiences notable increases in traffic, pedestrians, and alcohol-related incidents, especially as it serves as the gateway to the Oceano Dunes Vehicular Recreation Area. With both resident and tourist populations contributing to our total service population, we have witnessed an uptick in drug and alcohol-related traffic crashes involving vehicles, bicyclists, and pedestrians over the past few years.

The Grover Beach business community offers a range of services, including gasoline sales, hotels, and restaurants. Highway 101 is the main thoroughfare, providing access to the city’s services, while Highway 1 runs along the west side of the city, traversing the tourist areas of the Oceano Dunes. The city traditionally hosts several special events throughout the year, such as Summer Concerts in the Park, the Stone Soup Festival, the Dune Run 5K, Movie Night in the Park, Trunk or Treat, and the Holiday Parade. These events increase the number of drivers, bicyclists, and pedestrians on city roadways. With the combined presence of residents, students, and transient tourists, traffic crashes and incidents have risen in recent years.

In Grover Beach, both driving under the influence (DUI) and speed-related traffic incidents pose the biggest threat to the community. These incidents affect everyone regardless of age or economic status, highlighting the need for law enforcement efforts to target all drivers. The City of Grover Beach and the surrounding beach communities are desirable destinations for tourists and residents alike, drawing large crowds of both vehicles and pedestrians. Reducing the number of DUI drivers and speed violators on city streets is essential for community safety. An review of crashes indicate the incidents typically increase during the late summer vacation and Labor Day period, as well as on Memorial Day, Independence Day weekends, and throughout the holiday season from Thanksgiving to New Year’s. Other times associated with increased DUI crimes and crashes include Halloween, Super Bowl Sunday, Cinco de Mayo, and various local festivals and events.

Describe the problem(s) to be addressed, supported by current and relevant crash data. (most recent calendar year data/stats).

In 2022, the Grover Beach Police Department made 48 DUI arrests for DUI offenses, with the numbers rising to 33 in 2023 and 37 in 2024. These figures indicate progress in reducing DUI incidents and related crashes, which can be attributed to effective awareness campaigns and enforcement efforts.

During 2024, the City of Grover Beach experienced 37 injuries from traffic crashes, affecting 40 victims, and recorded one fatal traffic crash, resulting in one death. Of the crashes, one was alcohol-related, leading to an injury for one victim. While fatal crashes remain rare—averaging less than one per year in recent years— the number of victims injured in traffic incidents has generally increased over time, except for a decline in the last two years.

To address these challenges, the Grover Beach Police Department is implementing a focused enforcement strategy under the Selective Traffic Enforcement Program (STEP). This initiative targets various issues, including intoxicated driving, speeding, right-of-way violations, aggressive driving, distracted driving, and auto theft. The program also includes improved safety measures for pedestrians and cyclists. 10/6/2025 8:58:54 AM Page 4 of 19
The department has prioritized the reduction of alcohol- and speed-related crashes while enhancing the safety of pedestrians and cyclists. With this strategic approach, the department aims to mitigate trafficrelated issues and create a safer community. The department faces unique challenges due to increased traffic from tourism and alcohol-related incidents. Addressing these issues necessitates a comprehensive traffic safety plan, which includes targeted DUI enforcement, the establishment of DUI checkpoints, enhanced public awareness campaigns, and collaboration with neighboring jurisdictions. By adopting a data-driven and proactive enforcement strategy, focusing on high-risk times and locations, the department can significantly improve traffic safety.

These measures will not only reduce DUI incidents and traffic crashes but also foster a safer environment for both residents and visitors in Grover Beach. Through enhanced enforcement provided by the grant, the department can optimize enforcement hours for increased visibility, productivity, and effectiveness by targeting times and locations based on data. Furthermore, an increase in traffic enforcement operations and DUI enforcement details will help address the ongoing concerns reflected in the data.

Define the target population the grant intends to serve and how they are affected by the problem(s).

The target population in Grover Beach that this grant will serve includes both the 13,000 residents and those who travel to Grover Beach for the employment. They depend of d the public who depend on effective traffic enforcement for safety and efficiency on the roads. The current issues arise from a lack of funding for traffic enforcement, as insufficient financial resources hinder law enforcement's ability to conduct proactive measures. This leads to increased risks of speeding, reckless driving, and other traffic violations. Reduced enforcement can contribute to higher crash rates and decreased public safety.

The partnership and support from the Office of Traffic Safety, will assist the Grover Beach PD in its mission to reduce incidences of fatal and injury crashes, to include pedestrians, bicyclists, DUI, sped, motorcycle, and distracted driving. Grant funding allows Grover Beach PD to provide enhanced and focused enforcement, education with consistent awareness messaging, ongoing educational programs, the use of specialized equipment, and steadfast enforcement—all aimed at promoting a culture of responsible driving behavior, as well as improving safety for everyone in the city of Grover Beach.

A. Phase 1 – Program Preparation (1st Quarter of Grant Year)  The department will develop operational plans to implement the “best practice” strategies outlined in the objectives section.
 Conduct all training needed to implement the program, in the first quarter.  Purchase all grant related supplies and materials to implement the program, in the first quarter.  Items with a unit cost of $5,000 more (including tax and shipping) must comply with Buy America.  In order to develop/maintain the “DUI BOLOs,” research will be conducted to identify the “worst of the worst” repeat DUI offenders with a suspended or revoked license as a result of DUI convictions. The DUI BOLO may include the driver’s name, last known address, DOB, 10/6/2025 8:58:54 AM Page 6 of 19
description, current license status, and the number of times suspended or revoked for DUI. DUI BOLOs should be updated and distributed to traffic and patrol officers at least monthly.  Implementation of the STEP grant activities will be accomplished by deploying personnel at high crash locations.

Media Requirements
Issue a news release approved by the OTS PIO announcing the kick-off of the grant by December 31 and after the grant is signed and executed, but no sooner than October 1, the start of the grant year. The kick-off release must be approved by the OTS PIO. If you are unable to meet the December 31 deadline to issue a kick-off press release, communicate reasons to your OTS grant coordinator and OTS PIO.

B. Phase 2 – Program Operations (Throughout Grant Year) Media Requirements
The following requirements are for all grant-related activities:
 Send all media advisories, alerts, videos, graphics, artwork, posters, radio/PSA/video scripts, storyboards, digital and/or print educational materials for grant-related activities to the OTS PIO at [email protected] for approval and copy your OTS grant coordinator. Optimum lead time would be 7 days before the scheduled release but at least 3 business days prior to the scheduled release date for review and approval is appreciated.
 Send all PowerPoint presentations, online presentations and trainings for grant-related activities to the OTS PIO at [email protected] for approval and copy your OTS grant coordinator. Certified training courses are EXEMPT from the approval process.
 The OTS PIO is responsible for the approval of the design and content of materials. The agency understands OTS PIO approval is not authorizing approval of budget expenditure or cost. Any cost approvals must come from the OTS grant coordinator.  Pre-approval is not required when using any OTS-supplied template for media advisories, news releases, social media graphics, videos or posts, or any other OTS-supplied educational material.

However, copy the OTS PIO at [email protected] and your OTS grant coordinator when any material is distributed to the media and public, such as a news release, educational material, or link to social media post.
 If an OTS-supplied template, educational material, social media graphic, post or video is substantially changed, the changes shall be sent to the OTS PIO at [email protected] for approval and copy your OTS grant coordinator.
 News releases, social media posts and alerts on platforms such as NextDoor and Nixle reporting immediate and time-sensitive grant activities (e.g. enforcement operations, day of event highlights or announcements, event invites) are EXEMPT from the OTS PIO approval process.

The OTS PIO and your OTS grant coordinator should still be notified when the grant-related activity is happening (e.g. car seat checks, bicycle rodeos, community presentations, DUI checkpoints, etc.).
 Enforcement activities such as warrant and probation sweeps, court stings, etc. that are embargoed or could impact operations by publicizing in advance are EXEMPT from the PIO approval process. However, announcements and results of activities should still be copied to the OTS PIO at [email protected] and your OTS grant coordinator with the embargoed date and time or with “INTERNAL ONLY: DO NOT RELEASE” message in subject line of email.  Any earned or paid media campaigns for TV, radio, digital or social media that are part of a specific grant objective, using OTS grant funds, or designed and developed using contractual services by a subgrantee, requires prior approval.
 Social media posts highlighting state or national traffic safety campaigns (Distracted Driving Month, Motorcycle Safety Awareness Month, etc.), enforcement operations (DUI checkpoints, etc.), or any other grant-related activity such as Bicycle rodeos, presentations, or events, are highly encouraged but do not require prior approval.
 Submit a draft or rough-cut of all digital, printed, recorded or video material (brochures, posters, scripts, artwork, trailer graphics, digital graphics, social posts connected to an earned or paid media campaign grant objective) to the OTS PIO at [email protected] and copy your OTS grant coordinator for approval prior to the production or duplication. 10/6/2025 8:58:54 AM Page 7 of 19
 Use the following standard language in all press, media, and printed materials, space permitting:

Funding for this program was provided by a grant from the California Office of Traffic Safety, through the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration.  Space permitting, include the OTS logo on all grant-funded print materials, graphics and paid or earned social media campaign grant objective; consult the OTS PIO and copy your OTS grant coordinator for specifics, format-appropriate logos, or if space does not permit the use of the OTS logo.
 Email the OTS PIO at [email protected] and copy your OTS grant coordinator at least 21 days in advance, or when first confirmed, a short description of any significant grant-related traffic safety event or program, particularly events that are highly publicized beforehand with anticipated media coverage so OTS has sufficient notice to arrange for attendance and/or participation in the event.

If unable to attend, email the OTS PIO and coordinator brief highlights and/or results, including any media coverage (broadcast, digital, print) of event within 7 days following significant grantrelated event or program. Media and program highlights are to be reflected in QPRs.  Any news releases, work plans, scripts, storyboards, artwork, graphics, videos or any educational or informational materials that received OTS PIO approval in a prior grant year needs to be resubmitted for approval in the current grant year.
 For additional guidance, refer to the OTS Grants Materials Approval Process Guidelines and OTS Grants Media Approval Process FAQs on the OTS website.  Contact the OTS PIO or your OTS grant coordinator for consultation when changes from any of the above requirements might be warranted.

C. Phase 3 – Data Collection & Reporting (Throughout Grant Year)

1. Prepare and submit grant claim invoices (due January 30, April 30, July 30, and October 30)

2. Prepare and submit Quarterly Performance Reports (QPR) (due January 30, April 30, July 30, and October 30)
 Collect and report quarterly, appropriate data that supports the progress of goals and objectives.  Provide a brief list of activity conducted, procurement of grant-funded items, and significant media activities. Include status of grant-funded personnel, status of contracts, challenges, or special accomplishments.
 Provide a brief summary of quarterly accomplishments and explanations for objectives not completed or plans for upcoming activities.
 Collect, analyze and report statistical data relating to the grant goals and objectives.

4. METHOD OF EVALUATION

The Final Evaluation should provide a brief summary of the grant’s accomplishments, challenges and significant activities. This narrative should also include whether goals and objectives were met, exceeded, or an explanation of why objectives were not completed.

5. ADMINISTRATIVE SUPPORT
This program has full administrative support, and every effort will be made to continue the grant activities after grant conclusion.

b. the period during which the Recipient retains ownership or possession of the property.

9. The Recipient will provide for such methods of administration for the program as are found by the Secretary of Transportation or the official to whom he/she delegates specific authority to give reasonable guarantee that it, other recipients, sub-recipients, sub- grantees, contractors, subcontractors, consultants, transferees, successors in interest, and other participants of Federal financial assistance under such program will comply with all requirements imposed or pursuant to the Acts, the Regulations, and this Assurance.

FROM: Matthew Bronson, City Manager
PREPARED BY: Greg Ray, Public Works Director/City Engineer Megan Martin, Community Development Director
SUBJECT: Request for Approval of Final Subdivision Map for Tract 3230 (1232 Long Branch Avenue)

RECOMMENDATION
Approve the Final Subdivision Map Tract 3230 (1232 Long Branch Avenue), accept on behalf of the public utility easements delineated on the map, authorize the City Clerk to sign and record the map and direct the City Manager to enter into a Subdivision Improvement Agreement with the owner (O’Sullivan Family Revocable Trust u/t/d September 28, 2012).

BACKGROUND
On December 3, 2024, the Planning Commission approved a Tentative Subdivision Map for Development Application 24-24, a two to three-story residential townhome project that includes 10 new townhomes with 2 attached Accessory Dwelling Units located at the southeast corner of the intersection of Long Branch Avenue and South 12th Street. The approval included requirements to complete frontage improvements along Long Branch Avenue and South 12th Street and extend the City’s sewer main in 12th Street. Public improvement plans, including construction of frontage improvements, sewer service, and water services were reviewed and approved by staff. Following that, staff approved a grading permit and associated encroachment permits for construction of offsite improvements. Recordation of the Final Map and bonds backed by the developer are required to construct the townhomes proposed in the subdivision.

Consistent with Development Code Section 8.30.010.Q, the Council must approve a Final Map if it conforms with the approved Vesting Tentative Subdivision Map and the California Subdivision Map Act. The applicant has submitted a Final Subdivision Map for Tract Map 3230 for Council action and final acceptance. Staff has reviewed the submittal and found it to be complete and accurate. Additionally, as part of the review process, staff has reviewed the Covenants, Conditions, and Restrictions (CC&Rs), and deed notifications restricting use of fractional density units for short term rental purposes, consistent with project approvals.

The Final Map includes reciprocal access easements for public utilities, parking, and private access and a shared access and maintenance agreement will be recorded concurrently with the map. There are a number of public utility easements delineated on the map and offered to the public. Staff is recommending the Council accept them on behalf of the public utilities serving the subdivision. The proposed new onsite drive lane within the development is private and will be maintained by the homeowners.

GRANT OF EASEMENT DISCLOSURE STATEMENT
This Disclosure Statement will assist you in evaluating the request for granting an easement to Pacific Gas and Electric Company (PG&E) to accommodate a utility service extension to PG&E’s applicant.

Please read this disclosure carefully before signing the Grant of Easement.  You are under no obligation or threat of condemnation by PG&E to grant this easement.  The granting of this easement is an accommodation to PG&E’s applicant requesting the extension of PG&E utility facilities to the applicant’s property or project. Because this easement is an accommodation for a service extension to a single customer or group of customers, PG&E is not authorized to purchase any such easement.  By granting this easement to PG&E, the easement area may be used to serve additional customers in the area and may be used to install additional utility facilities. Installation of any proposed facilities outside of this easement area will require an additional easement.  Removal and/or pruning of trees or other vegetation on your property may be necessary for the installation of PG&E facilities. You have the option of having PG&E’s contractors perform this work on your property, if available, or granting permission to PG&E’s applicant or the applicant’s contractor to perform this work. Additionally, in order to comply with California fire laws and safety orders, PG&E or its contractors will periodically perform vegetation maintenance activities on your property as provided for in this grant of easement in order to maintain proper clearances from energized electric lines or other facilities.
 The description of the easement location where PG&E utility facilities are to be installed across your property must be satisfactory to you.
 The California Public Utilities Commission has authorized PG&E’s applicant to perform the installation of certain utility facilities for utility service. In addition to granting this easement to PG&E, your consent may be requested by the applicant, or applicant’s contractor, to work on your property. Upon completion of the applicant’s installation, the utility facilities will be inspected by PG&E. When the facility installation is determined to be acceptable the facilities will be conveyed to PG&E by its applicant.

By signing the Grant of Easement, you are acknowledging that you have read this disclosure and understand that you are voluntarily granting the easement to PG&E. Please return the signed and notarized Grant of Easement with this Disclosure Statement attached to PG&E. The duplicate copy of the Grant of Easement and this Disclosure Statement is for your records.

CITY OF GROVER BEACH

CITY COUNCIL STAFF REPORT
Agenda Item No. 10
Placement: Public Hearing
Meeting Date: October 27, 2025
TO: Honorable Mayor and City Council
FROM: Matthew Bronson, City Manager
PREPARED BY: Jim Munro, Chief of Police
SUBJECT: Second Reading and Adoption of an Ordinance to Amend Grover Beach Municipal Code sections 93.35, 93.52, and 93.54 of Chapter 93 (Parks and Recreation) of Title IX (General Regulations) Pertaining to Noticing Requirements for Camping, Recreation; Homelessness and use of Public Rights of Way or City Property for Camping

RECOMMENDATION
Conduct a public hearing and second reading to adopt an Ordinance Amending Chapter 93 of Title IX (General Regulations); amending sections 93.35, 93.52, and 93.54 pertaining to noticing requirements for camping, recreation; homelessness and use of public rights of way or city property for camping.

BACKGROUND
Homelessness has been a long-standing issue for the City given the complexity and challenge of this issue not only in Grover Beach but throughout the county and state. To help address this issue, the City Council adopted the City’s camping ordinance in March 2023 that regulated camping on public property. One of the provisions of the camping ordinance was providing 72- hour notice to campers who camped longer than 24 hours on permitted public property before removal of the campsite. On August 25, 2025, staff provided an update to the Council on the City’s response to homelessness and during this update recommended a change in the noticing time period for camp removal from 72 hours to 48 hours to enhance the City’s ability to reduce camping activity in the city while still providing reasonable notice to campers.

The 72-hour period was consistent with federal case law at the time of ordinance adoption though this case law has since changed with the U.S. Supreme Court’s City of Grants Pass v. Johnson decision which gives public agencies more latitude for removing encampments on public property.

Requiring removal of a tagged campsite with a 48-hour period would enable the Police and Public Works departments to have a faster response to encampments and further the City’s goal of reducing the number and impacts of encampments within the city, while being consistent with current case law. This time period aligns with guidance from the California Interagency Council on Homelessness which recommends a minimum of 48 hours notice before encampments are removed.

This Ordinance was introduced for a first reading at the October 14th Council meeting for a public hearing and second reading at the October 27th Council. Pending Council adoption, the Ordinance will go into effect 30 days after adoption on November 28 to guide encampment enforcement and response efforts by the Police and Public Works departments.

CITY COUNCIL STAFF REPORT
Agenda Item No. 11
Placement: Business
Meeting Date: October 27, 2025
TO: Honorable Mayor and City Council
FROM: Matthew Bronson, City Manager
PREPARED BY: Erin Wiggin, CIP Manager
Kristin Eriksson, Assistant City Manager
SUBJECT: CIP 1259 Ramona Garden Park Improvement Project Update

RECOMMENDATION
Receive an update on the Ramona Garden Park Improvement Project Phases 1 and 2; and provide input and direction to staff.

BACKGROUND
Overview
Ramona Garden Park (“Park”) is a multi-use park, bounded by North 9th and North 10th Streets on the west and east, and Ramona Avenue and Brighton Avenue on the south and north, respectively. The Park is the focal point for activities in Grover Beach and the South County, in general. Many public and private functions are held at the park such as the Stone Soup Music Festival and Street Fair and the City’s Summer Concert Series.

After a community outreach effort beginning in 2019, the Council adopted the Ramona Garden Park Master Plan (“Master Plan”) in November 2020, which provides a “road map” for the City to guide future park improvements over a multi-year period along with implementation and construction of these improvements. The Master Plan was refined with a consultant-led effort on the design and construction phasing of this project. The Master Plan is divided into four phases with Phase 1 being the playground and restroom while Phase 2 features the amphitheater and bandshell. Attachment 1 shows the project plan with Phases 1 and 2 outlined in red.

The City was able to secure a 2023 Community Development Block Grant (CDBG) in the amount of $3,150,000 to fund Phases 1 and 2 of the project. On April 14, 2025, the Council approved a construction contract for this project and construction started in June. Construction activities to date include site mobilization, construction survey and staking, demolition, clearing and grubbing, utility trenching, earthwork activities, grading and concrete work. Over the next couple of months grading and concrete work will continue and equipment installation will begin. Weather permitting, construction is expected to be complete by mid-2026 for the return of the Summer Concert Series to Ramona Garden Park. Project updates are provided on the City’s website.

Community Donation Program
Along with the CDBG funding, the City is using funding from the Parks Construction Fund, Parks Development Impact Fee Fund, and Recreation Development Impact Fee Fund for a total of $3.6 Staff Report: CIP 1259 Ramona Garden Park Improvement Project Update Page 2 October 27, 2025
million in available project funding. Given that the total cost of the project is approximately $4 million, there is a gap of approximately $450,000 to fully fund construction. The Council had previously authorized use of General Fund reserves to close this funding gap which would be carried when closing out project accounting by the end of FY 2025-26. However, the Council also authorized development of a community donation program with the Grover Beach Community Foundation (Foundation) to help offset the cost not covered by the project funding. This program is guided by the Ramona Garden Park Community Donation Policy adopted by the Council in December 2024 and shown in Attachment 2.

Over the past year, the Foundation has promoted this donation program through creating a dedicated website, tabling at numerous community events, and sending out a mailer to households and businesses in the city. This promotional work was funded by a $5,000 mid-year appropriation approved by the Council on March 10. The donation program included commemorative pavers to be installed near the playground along with benches, tables, and other items such as bike racks and drinking fountains.

In total, the Foundation sold 170 commemorative pavers along with two benches which generated $64,000 in funding. While the time period to purchase commemorative pavers has ended, the Foundation will continue to accept donations for tables and benches. The Foundation and the City are also continuing to work with prospective donors on naming rights for the bandshell at the new amphitheater in the park for 25 years pursuant to the Community Donation Policy. Such naming rights would involve a significant donation and staff will bring a naming rights agreement to the Council for approval when this donation is secured. The Council may wish to direct staff to pursue other donation efforts during the remainder of the project construction.

Memorial Plaques, Benches, and Trees
Lastly, staff wished to address the removal of memorial plaques and benches at the park during project construction. Numerous plaques and benches were installed at Ramona Garden Park over many years by community members to recognize loved ones who passed. In addition, community members planted numerous trees at the park in various locations often as part of this recognition. These installations were typically done outside of direct City involvement or authorization even though the park is a City facility. As a result, the City’s records about these installations over time are very limited including locations and contact information.

During the project design process from 2020 to 2024, the placement of these memorial plaques, benches, and trees at the park was raised with the Council and Parks, Recreation, and Beautification Commission (Commission) as the Phases 1 and 2 improvements unfortunately conflicted with the location of many of these memorial items. The design consultant and staff recommended with Council and Commission concurrence that transitioning these memorials to commemorative pavers in a walkway or a future memorial wall was better suited for the revised configuration and amenities of the park.

When the construction for Phases 1 and 2 began in June, the previously placed plaques and benches were removed along with most of the trees planted by community members. The City regrettably was not able to contact families given the limited records prior to construction. The City recognizes the deep personal significance these memorials hold and retained the plaques and benches with the intent of returning them to the families or organizations that placed them.

Staff has had numerous conversations with affected families and organizations since June and has returned several plaques and benches to date. Staff also offered these families a commemorative paver at no cost in honor of their loved one and several families have done this.

Staff Report: CIP 1259 Ramona Garden Park Improvement Project Update Page 3 October 27, 2025
In addition, staff would seek further direction from the Council if there are other items the City could offer to these families such as installing a plaque at a specific location and/or dedicating one of the new trees the City is planting with this project. Such an action could balance the historic significance of the prior memorials with the current and future needs of this City park. This recognition if directed would be subsequently documented and approved by the Council with subsequent City record-keeping to prevent future uncertainty about such actions.

FISCAL IMPACT
The CDBG program award provides $3,150,000 for construction with additional funding from the Parks Construction Fund, Parks Development Impact Fee Fund, and Recreation Development Impact Fee Fund for a total of $3.6 million in available project funding. Given that the total cost of the project is approximately $4 million, there is a gap of approximately $450,000 to fully fund construction. The Council had previously authorized use of General Fund reserves to close this funding gap though also authorized a Community Donation Program with the Grover Beach Community Foundation to help offset this gap.

ALTERNATIVES
The Council has the following alternatives to consider:

1. Receive an update on the Ramona Garden Park Improvement Project Phases 1 and 2 and provide input and direction to staff; or

2. Provide alternative direction to staff.

PUBLIC NOTIFICATION
The agenda was posted in accordance with the Brown Act.
