The agreement provides grant funding of $180,000 towards the CARES pilot program, which will be included in the FY 2022-23 Recommended Budget. The City previously budgeted $75,000 for this program, and received a match of $75,000 from the County of San Mateo, bringing the total project budget to $330,000.
STRATEGIC ELEMENT:
This recommendation supports the Healthy Communities and Public Safety Element of the Strategic Plan.
BACKGROUND:
On March 16, 2022, the City launched the CARES program pilot, which was funded through City general funds and a matching contribution from the County of San Mateo. The initial pilot is operated through a contract with El Centro de Libertad, and planned to respond 40 hours per week, for seven months from March through October 2022.
In December of 2021, staff submitted an application for the California Department of Health Care Services Behavioral Health Mobile Crisis and Non-Crisis Services Mobile Crisis grant program, which a one-year behavioral health justice intervention services (BHJIS) project intended to support local and statewide efforts to improve first responder, emergency medical services, law enforcement, and community efforts to address behavioral health crises. 11 The application requested $180,000, to be added to the $150,000 already budgeted for the CARES pilot and allow the program to expand to seven days per week and extend to February 14, 2023, which was the end of the BHJIS grant program. The grant funding would also allow the City to hire a third-party firm to assist in data collection and analysis, and complete a program evaluation at the end of the pilot. The BHJIS grant requires monthly participation in coaching calls and quarterly participation in virtual and in-person learning collaboratives with the other recipients of the grant.
On February 28, 2022, the City received notification that the CARES program would be awarded the full $180,000 grant request, and staff began working with Advocates for Human Potential, Inc. (AHP), the State’s third-party non-profit administrator of the grant, on the scope of work and deliverables for the grant. In order to finalize the grant, AHP must enter into a subcontract with the City.
DISCUSSION:
The attached Subcontract Agreement requires the City to implement a crisis response program, and is for a term beginning February 15, 2022, and ending February 14, 2023, for total consideration of $180,000.
The Statements of Work (SOW) (Attachment D) in the agreement continues to current pilot program on a 40 hours-per-week basis through September 15, 2022, and then expands the program to 80 hours-per-week through February 14, 2023. The expanded program will include two shifts with minor overlap, seven days per week of response, and will allow better coverage of peak hours of need based on 911 call data provided by San Mateo County Public Safety Communications.
The funding will allow the City to expand and improve its data collection in the pilot program through a third-party professional program evaluation firm, which will help inform expansion and long-term implementation of mobile crisis response services in Half Moon Bay. The data will also add to the body of research around this growing practice, with unique experience from Half Moon Bay being a smaller, more rural community and our contract with the San Mateo County sheriff’s Office for law enforcement.
The Grant funding is intended to fund direct response and program evaluation and will be reimbursed to the City on a quarterly basis. The City also continues to explore additional grant funding for the long-term implementation of the program following the pilot. Staff will bring an amendment and extension to the El Centro contract for operating the CARES team following approval and execution of this grant agreement.

TITLE: PROFESSIONAL SERVICES AGREEMENT CONTRACT AWARD FOR THE
PILARCITOS AVENUE/KEHOE WATERCOURSE OUTFALL REPAIR PROJECT (CIP NO. 1005)
_____________________________________________________________________________ RECOMMENDATION:
Adopt a Resolution, authorizing the City Manager to award and execute a Professional Services Agreement (PSA) for the Pilarcitos Avenue/Kehoe Watercourse Outfall Repair Project (CIP No. 1005) to the most qualified and responsive proposer, Schaaf and Wheeler Consulting Civil Engineers of Santa Rosa, CA, in the total amount of $217,653.
FISCAL IMPACT:
The FY 21-22 budget has allocated sufficient funds for this contract award, potential contract changes and project management as planned Capital Improvement Project CIP No. 1005.
STRATEGIC ELEMENT:
This action supports the Infrastructure and Environment, Healthy Communities and Public Safety Elements of the Strategic Plan.
BACKGROUND:
The Pilarcitos Avenue storm drain culvert is a 24-inch diameter concrete culvert located at the southerly terminus of Pilarcitos Avenue in the Casa del Mar Subdivision. The 160-foot-long culvert is the final pipe in a network of underground storm drainpipes that collect stormwater runoff from the Subdivision. The culvert discharges the stormwater into the Kehoe watercourse, an intermittent watercourse that runs east to west along the southerly border of the Casa del Mar subdivision.
The Pilarcitos Avenue culvert is in need of repair because its end section—a section about 4 feet long--has detached and fallen into the Kehoe watercourse. There is localized bank and 76
channel erosion in the area of the fallen end section and some concern that the erosion might imminently encroach into private property.
The Kehoe watercourse has been a subject of concern for many years. The channel is incising, and its banks are actively eroding. While the City plans to implement a larger project to stabilize the Kehoe watercourse in upcoming fiscal years, this smaller Pilarcitos Avenue/Kehoe Watercourse Outfall Repair Project (Project) has been programed for the current 2021-2022 Fiscal Year Capital Improvement Program.
For the Pilarcitos Avenue Outfall Repair Project, the City anticipates a design that will: provide protection for a 100-year storm event; retain the natural features of the watercourse; prevent negative local and system-wide hydrologic effects; be minimally invasive to minimize disturbance, permitting and mitigation requirements; minimize hard treatments such as concrete and riprap; and, utilize soft treatments—such as vegetation and plantings--to the greatest extent feasible.
Repair work in the Kehoe watercourse will require a number of environmental assessments and permits. The watercourse may be considered jurisdictional under the US Army Corps, California Department of Fish and Wildlife and the Regional Water Quality Control Board. The Project will also require a California Coastal Commission Coastal Development Permit (CDP). A Biological Resource Evaluation (BRE) for the Project was prepared and distributed in October 2021.
In February 2022, the City solicited a request for qualifications/request for proposals for engineering design services for the Pilarcitos Avenue/Kehoe Watercourse Outfall Repair Project. The general consultant scope of work is: asses the existing condition of the Pilarcitos Avenue outfall culvert; provide design alternatives for the culvert repair; provide plans, specifications and engineer’s cost estimate for the chosen outfall repair design alternative; provide necessary biological assessments; and, obtain required environmental permitting for the repair.
On March 23, 2022, the city received proposals from three well-qualified firms, each with a history of successful partnerships on prior projects with the City. Two of the firms teamed up with environmental sub-consultants to complete the environmental assessments and permitting portions of the work, while one of the firms proposed to complete the environmental assessments and jurisdictional permitting with its in-house professional staff.
On April 26-28, a City selection committee conducted interviews with each of the proposing firms including members of their environmental assessment and permitting teams. The firms were scored according to a selection matrix that included points for: technical qualifications; experience and performance record; understanding of project; work approach; knowledge of agency regulations and local conditions; schedule of deliverables; and, overall “best fit” for this particular project.
After careful consideration, Schaaf and Wheeler Consulting Engineers was determined to be the most qualified and responsive primary consultant for the Project. The Schaaf and Wheeler team 77
includes the environmental consulting firm of SWCA for biological assessments and environmental permitting work, Kier + Wright for survey and Cornerstone Earth Group for geotechnical review.
City staff met with S&W and SWCA project managers on May 3, 2022, to discuss the pending award of the PSA contract. Upon City staff’s request, S&W and SWCA agreed to make minor modifications to their proposal including an additional task to provide support for the Project Coastal Development Permit. City Planning Staff have historically provided the CDP support inhouse but since there is vacant position the bandwidth is not available to do so on this project.
The design and permitting phases of the project are scheduled to be complete by early summer, 2023. Project construction is anticipated in late summer, 2023. City staff will return to Council for award of the construction-related contracts in 2023.
DISCUSSION:
Schaaf and Wheeler (S&W) specializes in water resources and has completed many outfall design and erosion stabilization projects in the greater Bay Area. Schaaf and Wheeler (S&W) has also partnered with the City on several prior projects including the recent Ocean Colony Pump Station Rehabilitation Project, Kehoe Watercourse Hydrology Study (2015), and the Storm Drain Master Plan Phase I (2016).
S&W’s environmental sub-consultant, SWCA, prepared the Biological Resource Evaluation for the Project and has also worked extensively with the City on both public and private development projects. SWCA has assisted the City with CDP applications on past projects and is well-qualified to provide CDP staff support for the Planning Commission.
Schaaf and Wheeler provides a highly skilled multi-disciplinary team with experience working with and within the City. City staff recommends the City Council to adopt a Resolution authorizing the City Manager to award and execute a Professional Services Agreement (PSA) for the Pilarcitos Avenue/Kehoe Watercourse Outfall Repair Project (Project) (CIP No. 1005) to the most qualified and responsive proposer, Schaaf and Wheeler Consulting Civil Engineers of Santa Rosa, CA, in the total amount of $217,653.

79 Project Approach and Scope
Schaaf & Wheeler 1
Project Approach and Scope
Schaaf & Wheeler’s approach and proposed scope for the Pilarcitos Avenue/Kehoe Watercourse Outfall Repair Project is described below.
Management
Efficient and effective project management will be a key factor in completing the project on time.
Schaaf & Wheeler’s project management approach includes:
1. Developing a team of qualified staff that is familiar with the project and associated requirements:
a. Project Manager, Benjamin L. Shick, PE has been working for the City since 2015 and has successfully completed the design of multiple storm drain pipe, channel, and outfall improvement projects. Ben also has extensive experience managing projects that require biological assessments and environmental permitting. b. Schaaf & Wheeler completed the Keho Ditch Hydrology and Hydraulics Study for the City.
c. SWCA completed the Biological Resources Evaluation for the project in 2021 and has extensive experience working with the City.
d. Kier + Wright completed the topographic surveying of the Kehoe Watercourse that was utilized for the Kehoe Ditch Hydrology and Hydraulics Study. Kier + Wright will expand the survey data to include detailed topography near the storm drain outfall.
2. Outlining critical tasks and phases of work that will impact the schedule (data needs, surveying/basemapping, preliminary design, and environmental permitting).
3. Developing detailed and robust construction documents that accurately reflect existing site conditions.
4. Maintaining close coordination with the City during permitting, design, bid, and construction support.
Condition assessment
Schaaf & Wheeler’s staff is NASSCO PACP (Pipeline Assessment Certification Program) certified and has extensive experience evaluating storm drain infrastructure and recommending repairs. Schaaf & Wheeler will visit the site with City staff to evaluate and document the existing conditions. Schaaf & Wheeler’s subconsultant, Subtronic Corporation, will CCTV inspect the existing storm drain culvert to determine the extent of required repairs. 80 Project Approach and Scope
Schaaf & Wheeler 2
Schaaf & Wheeler’s subconsultant,
Kier + Wright, will perform
topographic surveying at the storm
drain outfall location and
surrounding channel. Kier + Wright
previously surveyed cross sections
of the channel upstream and
downstream of the project site to
develop the hydraulic models used
for the Kehoe Ditch Hydrology and
Hydraulics Study.
Schaaf & Wheeler will expand on
the previous hydraulic analysis to
evaluate the conditions at the storm
drain outfall. Erosion within the
channel will be evaluated to
determine the size and extent of the required outfall and surrounding protection measures.
Design Alternatives
Following the condition assessment and discussions with City staff, Schaaf & Wheeler will develop design alternatives to repair the storm drain culvert and outfall.
Schaaf & Wheeler will work with SWCA to develop alternatives that will be minimally invasive, minimize permitting and mitigation requirements, and provide protection from the 100-year storm event. The
goal will be to
develop alternatives
that retain the
natural features of
the watercourse,
minimize hard
treatments such as
concrete and riprap,
and utilize soft
treatments to the
extent feasible.
The proposed
alternatives will
include recommendations for repairing the storm drain pipe, outfall, and surrounding channel/banks. It is understood that the project will not extend upstream or downstream of the storm drain outfall.
81 Project Approach and Scope
Schaaf & Wheeler 3
Environmental & Permitting
Phase 1: Jurisdictional Delineation
SWCA understands that a jurisdictional delineation will be required for the project because the project will include impacts to waters of the U.S., waters of the state, and a stream feature under CDFW’s jurisdiction under Section 1600 of the California Fish and Game Code. For the jurisdictional delineation task, a SWCA biologist, will conduct a background investigation to determine historic and current wetland features of the project and surrounding areas, including delineations performed for previous City infrastructure projects. This will include a review of published soil surveys, historical and current aerial wetland photography, previous biological reports, and records from the National Wetlands Inventory (NWI).
Based on the results of the background investigation and desktop analysis, two SWCA biologists will conduct a formal jurisdictional waters delineation for the purpose of identifying and recording potentially jurisdictional waters within the project area. The delineation will occur concurrently with the BRE field visit. The delineation will follow technical criteria, field indicators, and recommended methods for identifying wetlands and delineating their upland boundaries as established in the 1987 Corps Wetlands Delineation Manual and the Arid West Region supplement to the manual. Jurisdictional areas within the survey areas, including Waters of the U.S. (as defined by the USACE), state jurisdictional areas (as defined by CDFW and the RWQCB), and coastal wetlands (as defined by the California Coastal Commission), will be identified, delineated, and characterized.
SWCA will collect data on plants, hydrology, and soils and record the information on routine wetland data sheets. For non-wetlands or other waters, SWCA will record the width of the feature at the ordinary high water mark (OHWM), the characteristics of the feature that identify the OHWM, plant species in and adjacent to the feature, and other characteristics that would help determine if the feature is jurisdictional. The connectivity of the features in the project area with other Waters of the U.S. will also be assessed to determine the extent of USACE jurisdiction. Sample points and identified jurisdictional boundaries will be mapped and the resulting acreages quantified using a GPS capable of determining positional sub-meter accuracy.
A preliminary jurisdictional wetland delineation (PJD) report will be prepared that will include maps of potentially jurisdictional features and a discussion of temporary and permanent impact acreages. The report will include a discussion of field methods and potential avoidance measures, representative photographs, and GIS maps of potentially jurisdictional wetland features. SWCA will electronically submit the draft PJD report to the City for review.
SWCA will respond to City comments on the PJD report and will prepare a Public Draft of the PJD report for submittal to the USACE. SWCA will prepare a final delineation report for submittal to the USACE based on one round of formal comments received from the USACE or comments made during the USACE field visit.
Assumptions:
SWCA field staff will have full right of entry/access to all survey areas. The formal jurisdictional waters delineation will be conducted by two SWCA biologists. All deliverables will be submitted electronically.
82 Project Approach and Scope
Schaaf & Wheeler 4
One round of consolidated comments from the City will be responded to for the PJD.
Should additional revisions be necessary following review, response to additional comments can be provided under a separate scope and cost estimate. Up to 4 staff hours have been included to respond the comments from the City. One round of consolidated comments from the USACE will be responded to for the PJD.
Should additional revisions be necessary following review, response to additional comments can be provided under a separate scope and cost estimate. Up to 4 staff hours have been included to respond the comments from the USACE. Field meetings with agency personnel are not included in this scope of work. If field meetings are required, SWCA can provide such services under a separate scope of work and cost estimate.
Phase 2: CEQA Notice of Exemption/Initial Study Checklist Based on SWCA’s understanding of the project scope and potential environmental resources we assume that the project will qualify for Class 1 Categorical Exemption (CE) pursuant to CEQA, applicable for maintenance of existing facilities. SWCA assumes that to use a Class 1 exemption the project scope will consist of repair and minor alteration of an existing culvert/stormwater conveyance with no expansion of the existing use. Furthermore, SWCA assumes that the exceptions to using a CE (CEQA Guidelines Section 153200.2) are not triggered by the project (e.g., significant effects to environmental resources would be avoided with implementation of avoidance and minimization measures).
SWCA will prepare a CEQA Notice of Exemption, which will be supported and accompanied by a brief Initial Study (IS) checklist to provide documentation that there would be no potentially significant effects on the environment from the project, either individually or cumulatively. The brief IS checklist will include a project description, identification of the environmental setting, and review of potential environmental effects using the checklist provided in Appendix G of the State CEQA Guidelines.
An SWCA environmental planer will also be available for attendance at one City Planning Commission meeting to provide technical support, as needed.
Assumptions
CE exceptions (CEQA Guidelines Section 153200.2) will not be triggered by the project and there will be no significant impacts to biological or cultural resources The IS checklist will be provided in brief format with references to biological and cultural technical resource studies (i.e., Biological Resources Evaluation [BRE] previously prepared for the project and biological and cultural technical studies described in Phase 3 below) Additional technical studies (e.g., air quality/greenhouse gas assessment, noise study, traffic impact assessment, water supply assessment, etc.) will not be required. A total of 42 staff hours are provided for this task. Should additional support be needed for coordination or technical documentation, such services can be provided under a separate scope of work and cost estimate.
Phase 3, Task 1: Permit Applications
The project will result in impacts/fill to water features identified in the BRE as USACE, RWQCB, and/or CDFW jurisdictional. A such, SWCA will prepare a USACE Pre-Construction Notification 83 Project Approach and Scope
Schaaf & Wheeler 5
for a Nationwide Permit (NWP) 7 (outfall structures), a RWQCB Section 401 Water Quality Certification application, and a CDFW Lake and Streambed Alteration Agreement (LSAA) Notification. SWCA will prepare draft permit applications for City review and will revise the applications to respond to any comments made by the City before preparing final applications for agency submittal.
We suggest a pre-filing meeting with the RWQCB following completion of the jurisdictional delineation as the RWQCB, although no longer requiring such a meeting, strongly recommends project proponents initiate a pre-filing meeting. Once the project reaches 60% engineering for design (i.e., typical minimum design threshold to base permitted impacts on), SWCA will prepare one Administrative Draft of each required permit application for City review. A final draft of each permit application will be prepared and submitted the applicable agencies following one round of City comment review on Administrative Draft permit applications. Permits will be prepared in accordance with agency guidance including maps and drawings as appropriate.
Once permits are submitted, SWCA will follow-up regularly with the regulatory agencies to keep the permitting process on track.
The project is also anticipated to require a Coastal Development Permit (CDP) in compliance with the City’s Local Coastal Program (LCP). In support of CDP issuance, SWCA will prepare the draft Staff Report and Planning Resolution documents for City review. SWCA will also prepare supporting documentation such as technical information, maps, and avoidance and minimization measures to facilitate completion of the CDP permit application. Technical information will be based upon information already prepared in the biological and cultural resource technical tasks and resource permitting outlined in this proposal. Two SWCA representatives will also be available to attend one CDP application kickoff meeting and one City Planning Commission meeting to coordinate needs of the CDP application and outline expectations and roles. SWCA assumes that completion of CDP tasks will be dependent on issuance of agency resource permits (e.g., Clean Water Act [CWA] Section 404/401, CDFW LSAA) and associated permit measures.
Assumptions:
All deliverables to the City will be submitted electronically. One copy of the Streambed Alteration Notification will be submitted to the CDFW, and the USACE PCN and RWQCB WQC application will be submitted electronically. One round of consolidated comments from the City will be responded to for the draft permit applications. Should additional revisions be necessary following review, response to additional comments can be provided under a separate scope and cost estimate. Up to 8 staff hours have been included to respond the comments from the City on the draft CDFW, and the USACE PCN and RWQCB WQC permit applications. Up to 10 staff hours have been included for agency coordination, including the interagency pre-filing meeting. A total of 12 staff hours have been provided to update the previously prepared BRE, required as an attachment to the CDFW Streambed Alteration Notification, to account for changes in project description and project impact calculations. SWCA will not prepare the project diversion/dewatering plan required as part of CDFW LSAA Notification and RWQCB WQC applications.
84 Project Approach and Scope
Schaaf & Wheeler 6
A total of 39 staff hours have been provided to prepare the CDP Staff Report and Planning Resolution documents. Included in these hours is 6 hours to respond to one round of City comments on the CDP Staff Report and Planning Resolution. Technical information prepared to support the CDP application will be populated from the technical tasks described in this proposal.
Two SWCA representative will attend two virtual or in-person meetings for the CDP application kickoff and City Planning Commission meeting. The permit application fees will be paid directly by the City. This scope of work does not include coordination for mitigation, or mitigation fees.
SWCA can provide an amended to scope of work to conduct these services, as needed. Annual reports are not included but can be provided in a separate scope and cost.
Phase 3, Task 2: Biological Assessments
Based on the findings of the BRE and the associated supporting documentation required for USACE NWP compliance, SWCA will prepare two Biological Assessments (BAs) suitable for use in Endangered Species Act (ESA) Section 7 consultation, one for the USFWS and one for the National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration (NOAA) Fisheries, and with sufficient information to support the agencies’ preparation of a Biological Opinion, No Effect Determination, or a concurrence on a Not Likely to Adversely Affect Determination. Based on review of the proposed project and knowledge of the project site we anticipate either a No Effect or Not Likely to Adversely Affect Determination to be the appropriate finding. The BAs will include a physical and biological overview of the project area, identification of any federally listed species that may be present, and a determination of project effects to federally listed species.
SWCA will submit an electronic copy of the Draft BAs for review by the City and respond to the City’s comments and submit the Final Draft BAs electronically within 1 week of receipt of comments. SWCA will submit the BAs as part of the NWP package to the USACE and will respond to one round of review from the USFWS and NOAA Fisheries.
Assumptions:
The BAs will rely upon information collected during the field visit for the BRE (Phase 2, Task 2).
This task does not include field surveys in support of the BA. All deliverables will be submitted electronically.
One round of consolidated comments from the City will be responded to for the BAs.
Should additional revisions be necessary following review, response to additional comments can be provided under a separate scope and cost estimate. Up to 8 staff hours have been included to respond to comments from the City. Up to 8 staff hours have been included to respond to comments from the USFWS and NOAA Fisheries.
Phase 3, Task 3: National Historic Preservation Act Section 106 Compliance National Historic Preservation Act (NHPA) Section 106 compliance will be required for the project as part of the USACE NWP application. SWCA will work with the City and initiate 85 Project Approach and Scope
Schaaf & Wheeler 7
consultation with the State Historic Preservation Officer (SHPO) to develop the Area of Potential Effect (APE) for both direct and indirect effects. SWCA will conduct a records search for the proposed project area at the California Historical Resources Information System’s Northwest Information Center, located at Sonoma State University. Specifically, SWCA will obtain records of cultural resources located within a 0.5-mile radius surrounding the project area, as well as copies of previous studies that intersect the project area. Upon confirmation that the APE is acceptable, the records search and initial Native American consultation efforts will occur prior to initiation of fieldwork, which will maximize efficiency of work efforts and continued consultation with SHPO and tribal representatives.
SWCA will assist the City with Native American consultation, in compliance with Assembly Bill (AB) 52, as applicable. In coordination with the City, SWCA will contact the Native American Heritage Commission (NAHC) to request a Sacred Lands File search and a list of Native American contacts. This list will be supplemented with any tribal representatives who have submitted requests to the City to be included in consultation through AB 52. Upon receipt of the Sacred Lands File search, SWCA will prepare and mail letters to each of the tribal contacts, requesting information, in writing, concerning Native American religious or cultural resources within or immediately adjacent to the project area. Up to two calls will be made to each of the Native American groups on the NAHC list to document good-faith efforts to follow-up.
SWCA will conduct a Cultural Resources Phase I Survey of the area of direct impacts associated with the proposed project. SWCA will survey the APE for evidence of cultural resources. Upon completion of the field survey, SWCA will prepare a Cultural Resources Phase I Survey Report, which will document the results of the records search, Native American consultation up to the date of the report, and field survey. The report will include maps depicting the area surveyed for cultural resources. Locations of sensitive archaeological sites or tribal cultural resources may be depicted or described in the report and will be considered confidential, in which case the report may not be distributed to the public. Following response to one round of City comments, SWCA will finalize the Phase I Survey Report for ultimate submittal to the USACE and SHPO.
SWCA understands that a federal nexus is anticipated, requiring compliance with Section 106 of the NHPA. In addition to requiring identification and evaluation of historical resources that may be affected by a proposed project, compliance with Section 106 entails consultation with interested members of the public, including individuals, organizations, and agencies (such as the California Office of Historic Preservation). SWCA will assist the lead agency with Section 106 compliance by contacting any interested parties, on its behalf, who may have knowledge of cultural resources in the project area. Under this task, SWCA will prepare draft letters to be sent to interested parties and will place one round of follow-up phone calls.
If the project APE is found to contain historic properties, as described under Section 106 of the NHPA, additional cultural studies would be necessary. SWCA can prepare the analysis and facilitate consultation with SHPO and interested parties, and conduct required tasks such as archaeological delineation (Extended Phase I), evaluation (Phase II testing), and data recovery; preparation of a Finding of Effects; and a Memorandum of Agreement. Such support would be provided at additional cost.
Assumptions:
SWCA field staff will have full right of entry/access to all survey areas. 86 Project Approach and Scope
Schaaf & Wheeler 8
SWCA assumes that the area of direct impacts for the survey will be up to 1 acre. One round of consolidated comments from the City will be responded to for the Phase I Survey Report. Should additional revisions be necessary following review, response to additional comments can be provided under a separate scope and cost estimate. Up to 4 staff hours have been included to respond the comments from the City. No more than 6 hours of labor for revisions to the Cultural Resources Technical Report will be necessary following review by USACE and/or SHPO. All reports will be transmitted electronically; no hard copies will be provided.
The CHRIS records search will be conducted at standard rates (no rush request required) and the direct cost will not exceed $750.
The cultural resources survey will be negative. No archaeological or built environment resources will be identified which require recordation or evaluation. SWCA will provide up to 8 hours of Section 106 agency consultation support. One (1) draft and one (1) final version of the report will be required. All reports will be transmitted electronically; no hard copies will be provided.
Phase 3, Task 4: Restoration and Monitoring Plan
The SWCA team has experience in all forms of restoration and mitigation to fulfill the project needs for restoration and revegetation once the outfall repair work is complete. Early restoration planning provides opportunities to dispel many of the public and agency concerns and generate positive stakeholder relations, paving a permitting pathway for environmentally sensitive projects. Our knowledge of local and regional native plant species and strong relationships with the local regulatory agencies help provide our clients with restoration and revegetation plans that are both practical to execute and reliable in efficacy.
SWCA understands that the project will require development of a Restoration and Monitoring Plan (RMP) to satisfy measures to be listed in project permits (e.g., CWA Section 404/401, CDFW LSAA Notification, CDP). SWCA will prepare an RMP that will detail post-construction restoration methods including revegetation of impacted areas, tree replanting methods, restoration of the site to pre-construction contours, any irrigation requirements, fertilization, topsoil preservation, seed mixes, and the success criteria for evaluating restoration efforts. The RMP will also include a preliminary restoration planting figure that identifies the locations of planting zones and associated plant palettes for the project. The RMP will also detail a multiyear (five years or longer) plan to conduct annual monitoring and maintenance of all plantings, including provisions for assessing relative condition of plantings, and for ongoing irrigation, weed management, small mammal/herbivory control, and replacement plantings, as needed.
The revegetation information summarized in the RMP will then be used to develop a final planting plan and specifications for a qualified contractor to implement the revegetation components of the project. This individual plan sheet will be provided by SWCA for incorporation into the overall construction document set by the project engineer. The planting plan will detail the number and size/form (seeds versus seedlings, container sizes, etc.) of each plant species designated for planting; the distribution of plantings by species; notes regarding obtaining and preparing planting materials (on-site collection of seeds or cuttings, nurserygrown stock, plant tubes/cages, etc.); soil preparation and fertilization (only if necessary), planting, and any plant caging requirements.

Due to the unknown extent and type of revegetation that will be required, an irrigation plan is not currently included in this scope of work but can be provided under a separate contract if required for the project (based upon the watering needs of the vegetation that is installed for the project).
The RMP and subsequent planting plan and specifications will each be revised up to two (2) times based upon feedback from the City and regulatory agencies. A base map and titleblock for the construction plans will be provided to SWCA in Autocad format by the project engineer.
Any required revegetation will be located immediately adjacent to the outfall and will be covered by the base map developed by the project engineer, and no other restoration / mitigation locations will need to be identified or developed for the project.
Bid Documents
Once a design alternative is selected by the City and project team, Schaaf & Wheeler will proceed with preparing detailed design documents for the proposed improvements. It is anticipated that design documents will be submitted to the City at the 65%, 95%, and final bid document stages.
The 65% bid documents will be utilized for environmental permitting purposes. Once all permits are received, the final bid documents will be developed. The final bid documents will be adjusted to include permit requirements and constraints. The permits will also be included as attachments to the technical specifications.
Schaaf & Wheeler’s geotechnical subconsultant, Cornerstone Earth Group, will provide geotechnical support services during design. Cornerstone will provide peer review of the design and will be available to review and respond to geotechnical related questions during the permitting process. This scope does not include geotechnical investigations or borings; however, they can be provided for an additional fee if deemed necessary.
Construction Support Services
Construction support services are not included within this scope of services; however, it can be provided for an additional scope and fee upon request.

95 Revenues
Table 2 below shows a year-to-date summary of actual revenues through the second quarter for fiscal years 2021-22 and 2020-21.
Transient Occupancy Tax: The City has received $5.5 million through the third quarter.
This is an increase of $2.9 million from the prior year. The increase in revenue is due to the strong recovery of tourism, a recent increase to the TOT tax rate as approved by voters, and the recent receipt of County funds for the purchase of a hotel. This revenue stream is at 76% of budget compared to the prior year’s 53%. Considering the strong performance, the City is expecting to receive more than the budget.
Property Taxes: Most property tax funds are received in December and April. $2.2 million in revenues have been received thus far. Property taxes are at 66% of budget as compared to the prior year’s 62%.
Sales & Use Taxes: The City received $1.8 million of sales taxes. This is an increase of $284 thousand from the prior year. This category is tracking slightly better than anticipated.
All other revenues: The City received $2.4 million in other revenues. This category generally includes miscellaneous, non-material, or one-time funds. The increase in this category is mostly due to the receipt of $1.5 million in ARPA funds.

TO: Honorable Mayor and City Council
VIA: Bob Nisbet, City Manager
FROM: Jessica Blair, Communications Director / City Clerk TITLE: RECEIPT OF LEGISLATIVE POSITION LETTERS
______________________________________________________________________________ RECOMMENDATION:
Receive and file support letter sent for Assembly Bills 1944 and 2153 and Senate Bill 907.
FISCAL IMPACT:
There is no fiscal impact associated with this item.
STRATEGIC ELEMENT:
This action supports the Inclusive Governance element of the Strategic Plan.
DISCUSSION:
Annually, the City adopts a Legislative Platform to allow staff to send position letters regarding various bills / issues of interest to the City. The 2022 Legislative Platform was adopted by the City Council on March 1, 2022. The platform provides staff direction and allows the City, on the Council’s behalf, to respond in support of or opposition to bills and other legislative and administrative actions. The City Council has delegated its authority to the Mayor and / or City Manager to sign position letters consistent with the legislative platform. Townsend Public Affairs monitors legislation for the City and communicates frequently with staff on bills.
Occasionally, the League of California Cities will send action alerts for bills affecting municipalities. Staff reviews those alerts as well and will take action on any that align with the City’s Legislative Platform.
In the spirit of transparency, when position letters are sent by the City, staff will include them in a City Council agenda packet for viewing by the Council and the community.

Re: AB 1944 (Lee) Local government: open and public meetings (As amended 4.18.22) Letter of Support from the City of Half Moon Bay
Dear Assemblymember Lee,
On behalf of the City of Half Moon Bay, I write to express our support for your bill, AB 1944, which allows members of a local legislative body, upon majority vote, to waive the Brown Act requirements of publishing their private address on the meeting agenda and making addresses open to members of the public. The bill also requires a remote participation option for members of the public to address the body, only during meetings when the legislative body elects to use teleconferencing.
Assembly Bill 1944 builds off of last year’s efforts in AB 361 (R. Rivas) to modify certain Brown Act requirements by providing additional protections and flexibility to local agencies, whether there exists a state of emergency or not. This bill is an important tool for local agencies to be able to utilize in order to preserve their safety, while still ensuring public transparency that is required and deserved by the public.
Thank you for you work on this important policy topic, and I am pleased to support AB 1944.
Sincerely,
Debbie Ruddock

Re: Assembly Bill 2153 (Arambula) California Fruit and Vegetable Supplemental Benefits Expansion Program (As amended 3.22.2022)
Letter of Support from the City of Half Moon Bay
Dear Assemblymember Arambula,
On behalf of the City of Half Moon Bay, I write to express my support for your bill, AB 2153, which would establish the California Fruit and Vegetable Supplemental Benefit Expansion Program.
In establishing the program, the bill would also create the Electronic Benefits Transfer (EBT) Expansion Fund, while also requiring the California Department of Social Services (CDSS) to enroll authorized retailers to enable them to provide supplemental benefits to CalFresh recipients who purchase California-grown fresh fruits and vegetables.
Freshly grown healthy food from California, and access to that food, is something that all people in our State should have. Despite California being at the forefront of food production in the nation, we still have a tremendous amount of food waste – and this program would bring resolve to this issue.
Thank you for your work on this critical bill, and again, I am pleased to support AB 2153.
Sincerely,
Debbie Ruddock

Re: Senate Bill 907: Electronic Benefits Transfer System: Farmers’ Markets Letter of Support from the City of Half Moon Bay
Dear Senator Pan:
On behalf of the City of Half Moon Bay, I write to express my strong support for SB 907, your bill which would expand equitable access to quality food for Californians.
Specifically, this bill would establish a non-competitive grant program at the Department of Social Services and the Department of Food and Agriculture to expand the use of Electronic Benefits Transfer (EBT) at California certified farmers’ markets.
Currently, only a limited number of certified farmers’ markets offer access to fresh fruits and vegetables to recipients of CalFresh. The system currently in place does a disservice to the many Californians who are recipients of CalFresh, and this bill will tangibly change that system for the better. The recipients of CalFresh should have access to the same quality of foods that those with more resources have, especially since they represent some of California’s more vulnerable populations, including low-income families, senior, and students.
Senate Bill 907 provides a solution to the growing issue of food inequity, and as such, I am pleased to support this bill.
Sincerely,
Debbie Ruddock

BUSINESS OF THE COUNCIL OF THE CITY OF HALF MOON BAY
AGENDA REPORT
For meeting of: May 17, 2022
TO: Honorable Mayor and City Council
VIA: Bob Nisbet, City Manager
FROM: Jessica Blair, Communications Director / City Clerk TITLE: RE-RATIFICATION OF RESOLUTION TO CONTINUE HOLDING PUBLIC MEETINGS REMOTELY (AB 361)
______________________________________________________________________________ RECOMMENDATION:
By motion, in accordance with Assembly Bill 361, re-ratify the findings in Resolution No. 2021- 80 to continue conducting the City’s Council, Commission, and Committee meetings remotely due to health and safety concerns to the public due to COVID-19.
FISCAL IMPACT:
There is no fiscal impact associated with this item.
STRATEGIC ELEMENT:
This action supports the Inclusive Governance element of the Strategic Plan.
BACKGROUND:
On March 4, 2020, Governor Newsom declared a State of Emergency to make additional resources available, formalize emergency actions already underway across multiple state agencies and departments, and help the state prepare for a broader spread of COVID-19.
Thereafter, on March 17, 2020, the City Council adopted Resolution 2020-16 declaring a local emergency due to COVID-19. The same day, Governor Newsom issued Executive Order N-29- 20, which suspended certain provisions of the Ralph M. Brown Act to allow local legislative bodies to conduct meetings telephonically or by other means. Additionally, the State implemented a shelter-in-place order, requiring all non-essential personnel to work from home.
Staff quickly worked to set up remote meetings via Zoom for all City Council and Planning Commission meetings. The Zoom meetings have allowed the Council, Commissions, and Committees to continue to conduct City business from the safety of members’ homes. The City has been utilizing Zoom for the past 18 months to conduct nearly all public meetings. The usage of Zoom for public meetings has allowed the City to ensure the public’s continued access to government meetings while also ensuring the public’s safety. 106
On June 11, 2021, Governor Newsom issued Executive Order N-08-21, which extended the ability of agencies to hold remote meetings through September 30, 2021, after which agencies anticipated transitioning back to public meetings held in full compliance with the Brown Act. In preparation for the return to in-person meetings, staff has been working on acquiring audio and visual upgrades for City facilities to conduct hybrid meetings. Although hybrid meetings would help to keep the public safe by allowing them to continue accessing the meetings from their own home, Councilmembers, Commissioners, Committee members, and staff would need to meet in person.
Since the Governor issued Executive Order N-08-21, the Delta variant has emerged, causing a spike in cases throughout the state. As a result, the San Mateo County Health Department issued a Health Order requiring masks indoors in public places, regardless of vaccination status, starting August 3, 2021.
On September 16, 2021, Governor Newson signed Assembly Bill 361 (AB 361), which allows cities to continue to meet remotely during proclaimed states of emergency under modified Brown Act requirements that are similar but not identical to the rules and procedures established by the previous Executive Orders.
AB 361 authorizes local agencies to use teleconferencing without complying with the teleconferencing requirements imposed by the Ralph M. Brown Act during a declared state of emergency, when state or local health officials have imposed or recommended measures to promote social distancing during the proclaimed state of emergency, or when there is an imminent risk to the health or safety of attendees.
On October 5, 2021, the City Council adopted Resolution No. 2021-80 under the requirements of AB 361 to continue conducting meetings remotely. AB 361 requires the City Council to make the findings every 30 days, necessitating the need for this item.
On December 15, 2021, a statewide mask mandate went into effect due to a rise in cases across the state.
On January 10, 2022, in response to the surge of COVID-19 cases, Omicron variant, City Hall closed to the public moving services to remote services.
On March 1, 2022, the statewide requirement that unvaccinated individuals mask in indoor public settings moved to a strong recommendation that all persons, regardless of vaccine status, continue indoor masking. The San Mateo Chief Health Officer has likewise recommended the CDC’s masking guidance.
107
DISCUSSION:
AB 361 will allow local legislative bodies to continue to meet remotely after the September 30, 2021 expiration of the Governor’s executive orders. A local agency will be allowed to continue to meet remotely when:
• The local agency holds a meeting during a declared state of emergency • State or local health officials have imposed or recommended measures to promote social distancing
• Legislative bodies declare the need to meet remotely due to present imminent risks to the health or safety of attendees
The City meets the requirements to continue holding meetings remotely to ensure the health and safety of the public due to the following:
• The City is still under a local state of emergency
• County health orders require that all individuals in public spaces maintain social distancing and wear masks
• The City can’t maintain social distancing requirements for the public, staff, Councilmembers, Commissioners, and Committee Members in their meeting spaces The City cannot ensure social distancing requirements are met inside City facilities where the City Council, Planning Commission, Parks and Recreation Commission, Redistricting Advisory Committee, Bicycle and Pedestrian Advisory Committee, and Main Street Bridge Advisory Committee meet.
Councilmembers, Commissioners, Committee Members, and staff sit well within six feet of each other. Moreover, the County’s indoor mask order is still in effect, making it difficult to hear what Councilmembers, Commissioners, Committee Members, staff, and public speakers are saying. Furthermore, while speaking through masks may be understandable in person, picking up speech on microphones for those attending remotely and those watching any livestreams would be difficult.
Per AB 361, the City Council would need to declare every 30 days that the City’s legislative bodies must continue to meet remotely to ensure the health and safety of the public. Staff recommends that the City Council declare these findings are true so these bodies can continue to meet remotely. Staff will return with this resolution for re-ratification at the Council’s 1st Tuesday meeting each month, at which time the Council can reassess as various health orders and COVID-19 parameters change.

BUSINESS OF THE COUNCIL OF THE CITY OF HALF MOON BAY
AGENDA REPORT
For meeting of: May 17, 2022
TO: Honorable Mayor and City Council
VIA: Bob Nisbet, City Manager
FROM: Lisa Lopez, Administrative Services Director
Carol Kim, Accounting Technician
TITLE: ADJUSTMENTS TO COST OF SERVICES SCHEDULE (USER FEES) FOR FY 2022-23 ______________________________________________________________________________ RECOMMENDATION:
Conduct a public hearing and Adopt a Resolution authorizing adjustments to the Cost of Services Schedule (User Fees) for Fiscal Year 2022-23.
FISCAL IMPACT:
Pursuant to State law, the fee schedule allows the City to receive fees for specific services provided. Additionally, the Schedule includes development impact fees that address the “fair share” cost of public facilities, infrastructure, and utilities. Except as otherwise noted, fees collected by the City help fund the City General Fund.
STRATEGIC ELEMENT:
This action supports the Infrastructure and Environment and Fiscal Sustainability Elements of the Strategic Plan.
BACKGROUND/DISCUSSION:
The City’s current user fees and deposit amounts were established through a fee study in 2017, prepared in accordance with State law, that was approved and accepted by City Council. The purpose of this item is to affirm and update certain Administrative, Building, Public Works, Planning, and Public Safety fees.
Most of the fees were set at or about 100-percent cost recovery. With respect to entitlement review and permits, this update is not proposing a change to the City Council cost recovery goal set in 2017. The intent of this item is to ensure that fee and deposit levels remain consistent with the fee study, as well as with the actual City cost to conduct review and inspections of the various types of permits. This update also brings forth new fees or amended fees to implement new City ordinances.
109
Moving forward, staff is recommending the City consider another fee/nexus study in FY 2022- 23 to determine that City fees and deposit amounts are aligned with the current economy in San Mateo County and throughout the State.
Administration: This past year has provided the City an opportunity to revisit fees that either were established and not used or that needed to be created. • While the Professional Dog Walker permit has been set at $200, a permitting process has not been put into place. The Finance team in collaboration with other City departments will work on developing a process for obtaining permits and enforcement. In addition, the City has created a $75 personal dog walker permit for those non-professionals who walk more than 3 or more dogs at a time, consistent with prior Council action in 2020.
• The City has created a replacement fee of $35 for those who have lost their annual permit. This will cover the cost of staff time and materials.
Public Works and Community Development: In 2020, numerous updates were made to user fees for Public Works and Community Development Department permits and inspections.
These changes have been working well and were updated last each year according to the applicable indexes.
• Hourly Billing Rates: Hourly billing rates for Public Works, Building and Planning staff services were increased by 3%, consistent with the City’s annual cost of living increase which applies to all staff positions that charge time for entitlement review. • Permit Fees and Deposits: Fees were adjusted according to the CPI-W of 6.5%, as described later in this report. Deposits do not need to be updated this year. • Development Impact Fees: Each fiscal year Development Impact Fees (DIF) are increased based on the Average Annual California Construction Cost Index. However, this year, due to unusually high inflation, this index was approximately 26% (April to April) as compared to less than 3% the prior year. Staff believes that this increase was anomalous and should not be reflected in FY 22-23 fees. This adjustment would be an excessive burden on the local development community and could also be a constraint to housing development to increase development impact fees so significantly. Instead, for this fiscal year, staff is recommending a one-time use of the CPI-W increase for development impact fees. As previously noted above in this report, updating the City’s fee/nexus study is planned for this year. This study will provide a new baseline for development impact fees, fully loaded staff billing rates, and other costs related to development review.
• New Fees and Rates - Sidewalk and Parklet Activities: In line with the recently approved coastal development permit for the Downtown Sidewalk and Parklet 110
Activities Program, flat fees for compliance review and fee rates for subsequent license agreements are established.
Public Safety: Most Cities adopt similar codes that are complimentary to the penal code and vehicle code in order to specify certain acts. This creates a safer environment for the community and addresses local safety concerns. Parking, traffic, and general safety ordinances follow San Mateo County Sheriff guidelines.
Other Considerations:
• CPI Adjustment: The annual adjustment based on the Consumer Price Index for Urban and Clerical Workers (CPI-W) is 6.5 percent, which was the annual average for the most recent period. The CPI-W adjustment is incorporated into the updated fee schedule broadly, and for permit fees as previously discussed.
Conclusion:
If Council approves this update, new fees will be in effect sixty days from approval, which would occur on July 16, 2022. Fee increases for Administration, Building, Public Works, Development Impact and Planning Fees solely due to annual index adjustments take effect July 1, 2022.
