AGENDA

STAFF REPORT
MEETING DATE: 9/16/2025 AGENDA SECTION: STUDY SESSION
SUBJECT:

Hanford Fire Department Annual Report for calendar year 2024 RECOMMENDATION:

Recommendation: Staff recommends the City Council receive and file the Hanford Fire Department Annual Report.

BACKGROUND:

Fire Chief Executive Summary
The dedicated staff of the Fire Department have accomplished a great number of seemingly insurmountable tasks within this past short years’ time. Collectively, we have embraced a new leadership style and cultivated a true sense of family within our ranks to embark on our next decade of service to the community.

As the department nears its 135th anniversary of service in 2026, it was with a great sense of community that the city received support for a 1% Tax Measure known as Measure H. This transformative civic support will enable the department to address many issues from staffing, equipment and facilities that allow the members of our traditional, value-based organization to serve with great ‘community’ pride.

From improvements in technology-based equipment (Radios, Thermal Imagers and Geographical Information Systems (GIS) to advances in tried-and-true firefighting tools such as lighter, better and more durable fire-hoses, the resilient members of this fire department are constantly looking for ways to meet their core mission: to “… seek methods to decrease preventable tragedies…”.

Although the funds captured in Measure H are significant, the work that remains to be done to bring the Fire Department to nationally recognized and recommended staffing levels as well as provide the ability to mitigate risks throughout the community remains. These risks are known and the key to their successful mitigation is planning, training and successful execution of that plan.

The Hanford Fire Department in 2022, in coordination with industry experts and consultants as well as community stakeholders, developed a comprehensive plan through consensus, known as the Community Risk Assessment and Standards of Response Coverage (CRA/ SORC). Within these documents lie the basis of best practices, nationally aligned standards of professional fire service agencies and the knowledge that each City Council will also develop their plan for the city itself.

This annual report reflects the awareness that the identified areas of improvement for the department must be aligned with the objectives of the City Council. These plans must work in conjunction with each other so that the resultant objectives formulate a cohesive and cogent plan that addresses the wishes of the representatives of the people we serve. This plan has been enacted using specific measurable items in the 5 key Council result areas.

Considering that there are 4 main areas of concentration for the improvement of the Fire Department from the CRA /SORC – the department has taken all 9 items and identified a means to enact both plans through direct action. Therefore, we present our actions and how they align to the wishes of the council and the identified needs of the department.

Thus, it is with great pride that I present the activities as well as the associated plans that caused those actions to be placed into motion in the form of this Hanford Fire Department Annual Report to my fellow citizens of Hanford.

SUPPRESSION / ADMINISTRATION
The Hanford Fire Department is an all-risk fire service organization providing fire suppression, rescue, and non-transport, engine-based Basic Life Support (BLS) Emergency Medical Services (EMS). The department responded to 6,532 emergency calls and 8,250 total service calls, with nearly 55% being EMS-related. Despite increasing medical calls, fire-related incidents remain significant, with 330 fire calls causing $1.56 million in damages. However, the department's effectiveness is reflected in an 86% property saved rate, with a goal of reaching 90%.

Hanford's consistent annual growth of 1–3% has led to a disproportionate increase in emergency calls, with a 6.1% rise in the past year alone. This demand underscores the urgent need for department expansion, prioritized in Measure H sales tax funding. Planned additions include increased staffing and a fourth fire station to address disparities in meeting the industry standard of 17 personnel per fire incident. Currently, with only 10 firefighters per shift, the department operates at 59% of the required staffing level.

Response times remain a critical issue, with the current average at 7 minutes 30 seconds— significantly above the national metropolitan standard of 4 minutes. The addition of a fourth fire station in Northwest Hanford will help reduce response times. Additionally, eliminating CCEMSA as an intermediary dispatcher will streamline emergency call handling, cutting delays and saving $260K annually. Technology enhancements such as GIS-based ESRI mapping, Automatic Vehicle Location (AVL) integration via Tablet Command, and Image Trend data software will optimize resource deployment and statistical analysis. To improve communication reliability, the department will upgrade from a VHF radio system to a UHF cross-band-linked system through the Measure H communications initiative.

To enhance service quality, recruitment, and fiscal sustainability, the department will expand training opportunities for both new and tenured personnel. Establishing a dedicated training site within Hanford will allow targeted skills development, enhance fire suppression capabilities, and increase training revenue through partnerships with local community colleges, which have already yielded a 400% increase in returns.

Hosting regional training courses will further strengthen firefighter proficiency and operational efficiency, benefiting both personnel and the public.

These strategic improvements will position the Hanford Fire Department as a premier, mission-driven

fire service organization committed to excellence, efficiency, and community safety.

To best articulate all the initiatives into addressing the identified goals in 2025/ 2026 of the Hanford City Council, the Hanford Fire Department will implement the following actionable items in relation to the identified goals:
• Quality of Life

COMMUNITY RISK REDUCTION: PLANS CHECK, FIRE PREVENTION, AND OUTREACH The Community Risk Reduction (CRR) Division of the Hanford Fire Department consists of one fulltime Fire Marshal, two part-time Fire Inspectors, and a shared Office Technician. The division’s primary focus areas include plan checks, inspections, and community outreach.

Plans Check
The Fire Marshal oversees site plan reviews, new construction (four phases), and tenant improvements (three phases). In 2024, the division completed over 900 billable hours on 473 plan reviews, averaging 1.9 hours per plan, with a two-week turnaround—33% faster than previous years.

Fire Life Safety Inspections
Fire Life Safety Inspections are conducted at all businesses, schools, churches, hospitals, jails, and manufacturing facilities, in compliance with California AB 1203. Key areas of focus include exits, electrical hazards, and fire extinguishers. Mandated annual inspections include:
• State-Mandated: 230 total (Schools: 22, Churches: 40, Apartments: 160 complexes with 22,000 units)
• General Inspections: 1,610 total (jointly conducted by Fire Prevention and Suppression personnel)
Despite improvements, nearly 800 inspections remain incomplete each year, resulting in lost revenue of approximately $116,000—funds that could support a full-time Fire Prevention Coordinator.

Cost Recovery & Efficiency Efforts
Recent improvements in billing processes now allow for tracking and fee collection for inspections.

Future goals include optimizing revenue collection from special hazard use permits ($515 per permit) and hiring additional staff to increase efficiency.

Weed Abatement
Managing 120 lots requires an average of 75–110 days annually, primarily handled by one part-time inspector. The process involves multiple inspections, paperwork, and contractor coordination, consuming 360 personnel hours. Implementing drones in the upcoming period aims to reduce staff

time required for site inspections.

Fire Investigations & Enforcement
The Fire Marshal leads a Fire Investigation Unit in coordination with regional agencies. In 2024, the unit investigated two suspected arson cases and played a key role in removing 5,200 lbs. of illegal fireworks, issuing 27 citations. Future efforts will expand fireworks enforcement using night-vision drones and additional trained personnel.

Alignment of Departmental Goals to Goals of City Council:

The established goals of the City Council for 2023:
• Quality of Life
• Fiscal Sustainability
• Outreach and Open Governance
• Customer Service

AGENDA

STAFF REPORT
MEETING DATE: 9/16/2025 AGENDA SECTION: STUDY SESSION
SUBJECT:

The Hanford Plunge - Facility evaluation, repairs, improvements, and ongoing maintenance and appropriation from the General Fund Reserve to pay for the needed Plunge repairs for $237,600.

RECOMMENDATION:

Recommendation: Staff recommends an appropriation from the General Fund to pay for the needed Plunge repairs for $237,600. In addition, the Plunge Capital Reserve Fund of $187,414 would be exhausted.

Recommended Motion: I move to make an appropriation from the General Fund to pay for the needed Plunge repairs for $237,600. In addition, the Plunge Capital Reserve Fund of $187,414 would be exhausted.

BACKGROUND:

Since 1938, the Plunge has been a cherished fixture within the community and the only public pool within Hanford. During the Summer of 2025, the Plunge witnessed over 12,400 visits, 53.9% of which were Hanford residents. While the popularity continues, the mechanical and physical components have become aged and in need of repairs, improvements, and long-range planning.

The purpose of this study session is to provide the Council with information and cost estimates and to receive direction on the path forward.

Critical and Urgent Repairs
On August 3rd, the unexpected sudden closure of the Plunge occurred due to leaks in the circulation pump of the main competition pool, which required the shutdown of the main circulation pump. Knorr Systems International (KSI) was called to assess the needed repairs. Operations of the pool could not continue, and failure to address this incident would cause measurable damage to the circulation system, which is vital for the chemical balance of the water and safe operation of the facility.

KSI provided a cost estimate of $21,186 for labor and parts to fix this issue. The repairs include removal of pool decking, dismantling of the 8” main drains and pit suction manifold, and replacement of defective parts. The Purchase Order for the critical and urgent repairs has been approved, and we are awaiting KSI to schedule their crew to complete the repairs. The repairs are expected to start within 30-45 days and will take several weeks to complete.

The Slide and Slide Pool Repairs
The Plunge water slide has been a popular attraction for many years. It is classified as an

amusement ride by the California Department of Industrial Relations, Division of Occupational Safety and Health, Amusement Ride Section. As such, it is inspected annually. In May 2024, the slide was inspected, and several repairs were identified. Such as:
• Circulation pump issues are causing a decrease in water flow • Splash pool filtration motor wiring
• Skimmer and main drain renovation needed
• Corrosion on the sand filters
• Damaged non-skid coating on the entry stairs
• Damaged gel coating
• Need for improved training documentation
As a result, the slide has remained closed to the public for the 2024 and 2025 operating seasons.

Staff were hesitant to expend the Plunge capital reserves on the slide repairs as a precaution against the possibility of unforeseen emergency repairs needed, which would force the closure of the main pool.

Whitewater is the manufacturer of the slide. In March 2024, USA Construction provided a quote for materials and repairs. The cost to repair the slide pool is $140,967. The cost to repair the slide is $83,861.

Assessment of the mechanical room, competitive pool, and ongoing maintenance Unless it is the Council’s direction to close the Plunge permanently, additional repairs are required.

In August 2024, KSI assessed the existing mechanical room and competitive pool. At that time, they identified the need to replace:
• The pump control system at a rough estimate of $15,000 • The Heating system $25,000
• 8” valves $4,000
• Variable Frequency Drive (VFD) $12,000
• Pool covers (ThermalGard) $18,000
• Re-plastering of the competition pool $105,000
Total for mechanical and competitive pool - $179,000
The above repairs are expected to increase the efficiency and the lifespan of the Plunge. However, other unforeseen maintenance may be needed.

Ongoing Maintenance
Over the past several years, the routine maintenance and systems monitoring of the Plunge has been the responsibility of the Parks Division. The city currently has one staff person certified as an Aquatic Facility Operator (AFO) and one certified as a Certified Pool Operator (CPO). At this point, the staff recommends contracting this service to a professional pool maintenance company. This would free up park staff and provide a consistent and dedicated service. The estimated annual cost of contracted pool maintenance is $40,000. It is staff recommendation that professional ongoing maintenance be included within the operational budget during the mid-cycle budget review.

Long Range Planning
As Hanford continues to grow in population and recreational demand, it is imperative to take a critical look at the future and ask ourselves the hard questions.

QUESTION:
1) REPAIR: Do we continue to repair the Plunge and hope for the best? 2) REHAB: Do we take a serious look at feasibility and funding strategies for a fully rehabilitated Plunge?
3) REPLACE: Do we take a look at what a new aquatics center may take to plan and fund? In 2009, the City of Bakersfield constructed the McMutrey Aquatic Center, featuring a 50-meter competitive pool, double water slide, and interactive wet play equipment for $6.2 million. If this type of project is of interest, feasibility and funding strategies must be explored. This feasibility and outlook with take more time and possible funding to explore and staff will bring back more information in the future.

Financial Summary
Expenses
Critical and Urgent Repairs $21,186
Slide Pool Repairs $140,967
Slide Repairs $83,861
Mechanical & Comp Pool $179,000
TOTAL EXPENSE $425,014
Capital Reserve Account -$187,414
TOTAL REQUEST $237,600
Ongoing Maintenance $40,000 (FUTURE CONSIDERATION)
A delay in performing the needed repairs will cause operational uncertainty and future increased costs. Staff recommends beginning repairs totaling $425,014 as soon as possible contingent on City Council appropriation.

FISCAL IMPACT:
$187,414 from the Plunge Capital Reserve Fund will be allocated to the needed repairs. The balance of $237,600 is requested from the General Fund Reserve to complete the needed repairs.

AGENDA

STAFF REPORT
MEETING DATE: 9/16/2025 AGENDA SECTION: STUDY SESSION
SUBJECT:

Civic Park Hardscaping Project — Provide direction on the feasibility of the project, proposed community engagement, project timeline and budget
RECOMMENDATION:

Recommendation: Council provide direction on the feasibility of this project, proposed community engagement, project timeline and budget.

Recommended Motion: Provide direction to staff on whether to proceed and budget consideration.

BACKGROUND:

Civic Park is undoubtedly the cultural and historical heart of Hanford. It is also the City's busiest outdoor event venue. Significant events, including the Thursday Night Market Place, Winter Wonderland, concerts, and other various community gatherings, attracted over 526,200 visits (Placer.ai data) within the past 12 months. These popular events promote economic development, social cohesion, community pride, and a higher quality of life for all who visit. In essence, this project would create the classical town square, and is an opportunity to make a timeless statement and an everlasting tribute to Hanford's storied past by fostering a distinct sense of place, strengthening the identity, and preserving the cultural heritage for future generations.

The Winter Wonderland event has become a successful regional holiday destination. Last year, the City purchased a 60' x 100' portable ice rink that solidifies the financial stability of the event. Placing the ice rink on the natural turf center rectangle completely kills the grass and requires re-sodding at approximately $8,000 annually. The proposed Civic Park hardscape project will eliminate the need for re-sodding, reduce water consumption (saving 124,640 gallons of water annually), lower maintenance expenses, and provide 4,000 square feet of new, flexible event space. In essence, this project creates a town square where people can gather, enjoy an ice cream, and enjoy Hanford's historic buildings and charm.

The three primary requirements of this project are that the selected surface must be able to withstand heavy vehicles, freezing temperatures, and be universally accessible.

Project Location
The project location is the 40' x 100' center rectangle directly in front of the Civic Auditorium (see attached photos). The area is 4,000 square feet and is currently natural turfgrass.

Project Timeline
A potential project timeline for delivery before next May 2026 is very tight. The Winter Wonderland

event concludes on January 11, 2026, and the event breakdown will take an additional two weeks.

The construction of the project would be scheduled to begin in early February and must be completed before the opening of the Thursday Night Marketplace in early May.

September Community Online survey and in-person engagement Sole source design/construction contractor
October: Finalize the design concepts
City Council Selection
November Develop the project specifications

December Close RFB
January Award bid to selected contractor
February Construction begins
May Project complete, ribbon cutting ceremony
The project may need to be constructed in 2026 should this schedule not be achieved, in order not to displace events such as Thursday Night Marketplace.

Community Engagement
Due to the location and importance of this project, community engagement will be a key component of project planning and design. This will provide insights into what matters to the community. The engagement process will include both online and in-person gatherings. Design parameters will be explained, and the public will have the opportunity to choose from various pictures/images and/or draw their preferred design and submit it through the online portal. In addition, one on-site meeting will take place where community members can choose from the same online survey pictures/images and submit their design drawing.

Once the survey concludes, the results will be recorded, and a group of local artists will be chosen to collaborate with the contractor to refine their renderings. The final 2–3 renderings will be presented to the City Council for final approval.

Community Engagement Timeline
September 16th Council study session to receive direction on the project's feasibility and possible engagement process.

September 22nd Open the online survey
September 27th On-site meeting
October 3rd Survey closes
October 7th Return to the Council to present final concept designs Cost Estimates
The cost estimates for this project are dependent on the type of surface selected. As an example:

A. Pavers $270,576
B. Concrete $443,714
C. Lithocrete $700,934
Each of the above surfaces meets the minimum requirements to withstand heavy vehicles and freezing. Each also offers different design options. The final selection is dependent on the level of artistic detail of this treasured project location.

Concepts to be considered for community outreach are welcome at this City Council meeting and will be sought during the community outreach.

FISCAL IMPACT:

The cost estimates for the Civic Park Hardscaping Project are dependent on the type of surface chosen. Rough estimates range from $270,576 to $700,934. Potential funding sources are the General Fund Reserve, Measure H, and the Winter Wonderland net revenue, solely or in combination. The City could also consider paying for this over the next few years from Winter Wonderland new revenue.

CMTA Investment Policy Certification
Phone: 209-712-0428
Email: [email protected]
(Sacramento, California) – The California Municipal Treasurers Association (CMTA) Investment Policy Certification has been granted to the City of Hanford.

This Investment Policy Certification recognizes that CMTA has validated that the City of Hanford’s Investment Policy adheres with the State of California Government Code and meets the program requirements within 18 different topics areas deemed to be best practices for investment policies. Those topics include: Scope, Prudence, Objective, Delegation of Authority, Ethics and Conflicts of Interest, Authorized Financial Dealers and Institutions, Authorized and Suitable Investments, Review of Investment Portfolio, Investment Pools/Mutual Funds, Collateralization, Safekeeping and Custody, Diversification, Maximum Maturities, Internal Controls, Performance Standards, Reporting, Investment Policy Adoption and Glossary. Once a policy is received by CMTA, it is independently evaluated using a scoring matrix by three separate CMTA professionals. When the agency receives a passing score, the Investment Policy earns the ‘Certified’ distinction.

To enhance the municipal treasurer’s role, CMTA has developed a number of certification programs to reflect best practices and increase an individual’s knowledge of fixed income instruments. The Investment Policy Certification program began in 2012 with the support from the California Debt and Investment Advisory Commission. It is open to all government agencies within the State of California including special districts, cities and counties.

CMTA was founded in 1958 by a handful of Municipal Treasurers from both Northern and Southern California whose primary interest was to improve their function in local Government. CMTA is a professional organization governed by active public officials who are representatives of their own local governmental units.

STAFF REPORT
MEETING DATE: 9/16/2025 AGENDA SECTION: CONSENT CALENDAR SUBJECT:

Approval of the Reappointment of Planning Commissioners Dennis Ham and Jim Nelson and Parks and Rec Commissioners Sheldon Blackwell and Judy Scott to serve new full terms.

RECOMMENDATION:

Recommendation: Approve the appointment of Dennis Ham and Jim Nelson to the Planning Commission, and Sheldon Blackwell and Judy Scott to the Parks and Rec Commission, to serve new full terms ending December 31, 2028.

Recommended Motion:I move to approve the appointment of Dennis Ham and Jim Nelson to the Planning Commission, and Sheldon Blackwell and Judy Scott to the Parks and Rec Commission to serve a new full terms ending December 31, 2028.

BACKGROUND:

Section 2.20.030 of the City of Hanford Municipal Code states:
“At the first City Council meeting in January of each year, the Mayor shall endeavor to appoint members to commissions and committees to fill vacancies caused by the regular expiration of terms of membership. All such appointments shall be approved by a majority of the members of the City Council."
Section 2.20.040 of the City of Hanford Municipal Code states:
"Upon expiration of a member's term, the member shall, however, continue to serve until his or her replacement is appointed in accordance with Section 2.20.030." Historically, when commissioner terms expired, the City Council considered staff recommendations to reappoint eligible commissioners who had not yet served two full terms.

At the time the most recent reappointment process was scheduled to occur, staff did not receive clear direction from the City Manager, Mayor, or Vice Mayor regarding whether to:

1. Proceed with the reappointment of eligible commissioners; or

2. Open the process to new applicants
During this period, the former Vice Mayor and former City Manager discussed potential revisions to the reappointment process. Specifically, their conversations focused on whether the City Council

should continue the practice of automatically reappointing eligible commissioners, as well as issues related to commissioner attendance and participation conflicts.

Because no final direction was established at that time, staff delayed presenting the reappointment recommendations to the City Council pending further guidance. Recently, the City Manager and staff reviewed the commissioners’ attendance and participation and authorized the City Clerk to bring the recommendations to the Council for approval.

*Appointed to fill an unexpired term.

Additionally, several commission vacancies are anticipated at the end of the year. If the Council wishes to revise the current practice of recommending the reappointment of eligible commissioners, the Council may consider adopting a new appointment process before year-end.

Recommended Alternative actions:

A. Council may consider opening up applications and conducting an interview process with the City Council or a portion of the City Council/Staff for the current expired terms for the Planning Commission and/or Parks and Rec Commission.

B. Council may waive this reappointment process and continue the existing appointments until other member terms are expired and consider a) reappointment at that time or b) an interview process with City Council or a portion of City Council/Staff for the current expired terms for the Planning Commission and/or Parks and Rec Commission.

Authorization for City Manager to execute Supplemental Services Agreement #3 with Brandley Engineering for general engineering and consulting services for $50,000 and agreement #4 for construction management services for the closure of the underground fuel tank for $46,000 and an appropriation of $83,200 from the Airport Operation Fund.

RECOMMENDATION:

Recommendation:

That the City Council, by motion authorize City Manager to execute Supplemental Services Agreement #3 with Brandley Engineering for general engineering and consulting services for $50,000 and agreement #4 for construction management services for the closure of the underground fuel tank for $46,000 and an appropriation of $83,200 from the Airport Operation Fund.

Recommended Motion:

I move to authorize City Manager to execute Supplemental Services Agreement #3 with Brandley Engineering for general engineering and consulting services for $50,000 and agreement #4 for construction management services for the closure of the underground fuel tank for $46,000 and an appropriation of $83,200 from the Airport Operation Fund.

BACKGROUND:

On September 19, 2023, the City of Hanford awarded a 5-year Professional Services Contract to Brandley Engineering, the on-call engineering consultant, to perform a variety of airport-related projects. This contract allows the City to efficiently engage specialized airport engineering services on an as-needed basis.

SSA #3 was for engineering services that do not relate to specific contracts for the Hanford Municipal Airport.

Scope includes general engineering and consulting services, preparation of annual Airport Capital Improvement Program (ACIP), federal grant applications, etc. The agreement was executed June 27th 2024 but was inadvertently not presented to Council for approval. The amount was for $50,000 in which $12,800 was already spent in 2024 for preparation of Categorical Exclusions (Cat Ex) and other environmental documents. Therefore, only a remaining balance of $37,200 is being requested for appropriation in FY26.

SSA #4 is necessary to address regulatory and environmental compliance associated with the closure of an underground fuel tank located at the airport. Federal and state laws require closure and abandonment of unused underground storage tanks to be performed under engineering oversight to ensure environmental safety and must be completed by December 31, 2025.

These agreements are considered vital to maintain requirements and long-term operations.

FISCAL IMPACT:

Total cost and appropriation from Airport Operation Fund is $83,200.

Recommended Motion:

I move to authorize the City Manager to:

1. Award the construction contract to Archer Civil Construction, LLC of Tulare, CA, for the 12th Avenue at Hume Avenue Traffic Signal Project, in the amount of $1,129,567.05;

2. Establish a construction contingency of $169,435;

4. Authorization for a reallocation of appropriation in the amount of $796,738 from the Transportation Impact Fees fund (TIF) 0181 to CMAQ 0055.

BACKGROUND:

As part of the FY 2019/20 Council Adopted Budget, the Council approved the installation of a traffic signal at the intersection of 12th Avenue at Hume Avenue project. With development in this area of our community increasing, there are additional demands on our transportation system. This project will increase traffic flow efficiency, provide safety for vehicles at the intersection, and reduce intersection congestion by allowing more free flow traffic movements through the intersection. The project will also provide air quality benefits by reducing vehicle idling times. The existing intersection

is a two-way stop on Hume Avenue. This project is funded majority by federal grant funds with the remainder from city transportation impact fees.

Bids were opened on June 24, 2025, for the 12thAvenue at Hume Avenue Traffic Signal Installation project. A total of (5) bids were received, ranging from the low bid of $1,129,567.05 from Archer Civil Construction LLC to a high bid of $1,428,343 per the following bids received:

Contractor Location Bid Amount
Archer Civil Construction, LLC Tulare, CA $1,129,567.05 Dawson-Mauldin, LLC Selma, CA $1,190,623
Terra West Construction, inc. Clovis, CA $1,263,320
Cal VAlley Construction Fresno, CA $1,366,176
Granite Construction Company Fresno, CA $1,428,943
Staff examined the bids and determined that Archer Civil Construction, LLC of Tulare, CA, was the lowest responsive and responsible bidder, with relevant experience in signalization projects. Staff validated the lowest bidder's contractor's license status and verified the contractor is in good standing. Therefore, staff is recommending that Council authorize the City Manager to award and execute the contract with the low bidder, Archer Civil Construction, LLC in the amount of $1,129,567.05. Attached for Council review is the Bid Schedule showing all proposers’ bids.

PROJECT SCHEDULE:

If approved, the contractor, in coordination with City staff, will submit a project schedule within 15 calendar days after contract award, with work to be completed within 90 consecutive calendar days (excluding holidays) from the notice to proceed date. Construction is estimated to begin in November 2025, with work hours between 7:00 AM–5:00 PM, Monday–Friday, and the estimated completion will be January 2025.

FISCAL IMPACT:

A portion of the construction, staff management, inspection, and materials testing for this project will be funded through the Congestion Mitigated Air Quality (CMAQ) Federal funding, with additional funding from City Transportation Impact Fees fund. The initial CMAQ construction funding provided $357,000.00 for the project construction. After bid opening, staff was able to obtain an additional $789,080.00 of federal CMAQ grant funding to maximize the funding for the project. Staff is requesting authorization for a reallocation of appropriation in the amount of $796,738 from the Transportation Impact Fees fund (TIF) 0181 to CMAQ 0055 for the project budget.

Stonehaven Tract 940-Intention to Annex Territory to Community Facilities District No. 2025-1 (Public Safety Services)
RECOMMENDATION:

Recommendation: Adopt Resolution No. 2025-50-R Declaring its Intention to Annex Territory (Stonehaven Subdivision) to Community Facilities District No. 2025-1 (Public Safety Services) and Authorizing the Levy of Special Taxes Therein for Annexation No. 1.

Recommended Motion:I motion to adopt Resolution No. 2025-50-R Declaring its Intention to Annex Territory (Stonehaven Subdivision) to Community Facilities District No. 2025-1 (Public Safety Services) and Authorizing the Levy of Special Taxes Therein for Annexation No. 1.

BACKGROUND:

The attached resolution will begin the proceedings for the annexation of certain property, known as the Stonehaven Subdivision, to Community Facilities District 2025-1 (Public Safety Services) (“CFD 2025-1”). CFD 2025-1 was established as an annexable district to provide funding to offset the increased cost of public safety services created due to new development for police and fire protection services.

The property proposed for annexation is currently owned by D.R. Horton Ca3 Inc. and is located south of Hanford-Armona Road between 12th and 13th Avenues within the boundary of assessor’s parcel number (APN) 011-040-030-000, as depicted on Exhibit A. The development on the property will be 82 single-family lots. Development of this property will change the property’s characteristics and manner in which the property will be used, thereby creating a need for more services funded by CFD 2025-1.

The City contracts with Willdan Financial Services for the preparation of the necessary resolutions and balloting procedures for the annexation process.

The Resolution of Intention is the first step to annex this property to CFD 2025-1. This will be the 1st annexation to CFD 2025-1. The resolution also establishes October 21, 2025 as the public hearing date for the final consideration of the annexation of the property to CFD 2025-1. Once the annexation is complete, the property owners will be required to pay annual special taxes for CFD 2025-1, beginning the fiscal year after they are issued a building permit, as itemized on their property tax bill,

in accordance with the rate set forth in the Rate and Method of Apportionment of Special Tax (RMA).

FISCAL IMPACT:

The estimated annual revenue received by the City for this development will be $13,448 which is based on the maximum special tax rate of $164 per unit for Fiscal Year 2025/26 for an estimated 82 detached single family residential parcels. The special tax for CFD 2025-1 includes an annual escalation factor as defined in the RMA. The process for the annexation is funded by the developer and no General Fund monies are used for this effort.

BACKGROUND:

The attached resolution will begin the proceedings for the annexation of certain property, known as the Stonehaven Subdivision, to Community Facilities District 2025-2 (Public Maintenance Services) (“CFD 2025-2”). CFD 2025-2 was established as an annexable district to provide funding to offset the increased cost of public maintenance services created due to new development for landscaping and lighting maintenance, park maintenance, drainage maintenance, and street maintenance.

The property proposed for annexation is currently owned by D.R. Horton Ca3 Inc. and is located south of Hanford-Armona Road between 12th and 13th Avenues within the boundary of assessor’s parcel number (APN) 011-040-030-000, as depicted on Exhibit A. The development on the property will be 82 single-family lots. Development of this property will change the property’s characteristics and manner in which the property will be used, thereby creating a need for more services funded by CFD 2025-2.

The City contracts with Willdan Financial Services for the preparation of the necessary resolutions and balloting procedures for the annexation process.

The Resolution of Intention is the first step to annex this property to CFD 2025-2. This will be the 1st annexation to CFD 2025-2. The resolution also establishes October 21, 2025 as the public hearing date for the final consideration of the annexation of the property to CFD 2025-2. Once the annexation is complete, the property owners will be required to pay annual special taxes for CFD 2025-2, beginning the fiscal year after they are issued a building permit, as itemized on their property tax bill, in accordance with the rate set forth in the Rate and Method of Apportionment of Special Tax (RMA).

FISCAL IMPACT:

The estimated annual revenuereceived by the City for this development will be $44,362.00 which is based on the maximum special tax rate of $541.00 per unit for Fiscal Year 2025/26 for an estimated 82 detached single family residential parcels. The special tax for CFD 2025-2 includes an annual escalation factor as defined in the RMA. The process for the annexation is funded by the developer and no General Fund monies are used for this effort.

AGENDA

STAFF REPORT
MEETING DATE: 9/16/2025 AGENDA SECTION: CONSENT CALENDAR SUBJECT:

Approval of the Appropriation of $93,316.09 from the General Fund for the Purchase of Firearms for the Police Department
RECOMMENDATION:

Recommendation: That the Council, by motion to appropriate $93,316.09 from the General Fund for the purchase of 90 Glock 45 duty firearms with all necessary sights, magazines, and holsters for immediate replacement of duty Sig Sauer P320 firearms.

Recommended Motion: I move to appropriate $93,316.09 from the General Fund for the purchase of 90 Glock 45 duty firearms with all necessary sights, magazines, and holsters to immediately replace duty Sig Sauer P320 firearms.

BACKGROUND:

Officers of the Hanford Police Department are currently issued the Sig Sauer P320 firearm for duty carry. There is an immediate need to replace these department-issued firearms, which have recently been prohibited in the Kings County Superior Court, Kings County Jail (KCJ) booking area, and Kings County Sheriff’s Office facilities.

This prohibition stems from documented negligent discharge incidents involving this firearm model in other jurisdictions. HPD personnel's inability to enter these critical facilities while armed with the current duty weapon directly impacts officer safety, operational readiness, and the ability to perform required duties. At present, officers must check out loaner weapons while on Kings County premises.

Transitioning to a firearm with a proven record of reliability, enhanced safety features, and full approval within all Kings County law enforcement facilities is necessary.

After evaluating suitable alternatives, the Glock Model 45, 9mm handgun, equipped with upgraded sights, has been determined to be the most appropriate replacement for the department. This firearm is already in use, or scheduled for issuance, by every other law enforcement agency in Kings County, ensuring compatibility, interoperability, and consistency in training and equipment.

The City obtained pricing from the two authorized Glock law enforcement vendors in California: LC Action Police Supply and ProForce Police Supply. LC Action Police Supply submitted the lowest bid, which is reflected in the purchase amount of $93,316.09. Vendor quotes include the firearms, upgraded sights, four magazines per weapon, and compatible holsters. The total cost reflects a

trade-in credit of $3,750 for the current P320 pistols, calculated at $50.00 per firearm.

On August 13th, the City Manager authorized an emergency purchase of $93,316.09, as outlined in the attached vendor quote. This emergency purchase was determined to be necessary to safeguard life, health, and property. The acquisition will eliminate existing safety and liability risks, restore full operational access to all necessary facilities, and uphold the highest standards of safety, readiness, and professionalism within the Hanford Police Department.

FISCAL IMPACT:

This purchase was authorized as an emergency and is not currently offset in the budget. To maintain balance at fiscal year-end, General Fund revenues would need to exceed budget or expenditures under budget.

RECOMMENDATION:

Recommendation:

That the Hanford City Council:

1. Open the public hearing and accept comments regarding the Program Year 2024 Community Development Block Grant (CDBG) Consolidated Annual Performance and Evaluation Report (CAPER).

2. Adopt Resolution 25-55- R Authorizing and Approving the 2024-2025 CAPER.

Recommended Motion:

I move to approve submitting the Program Year 2024 Community Development Block Grant CAPER and adopt Resolution 25-55- R Authorizing and Approving the 2024-2025 CAPER.

BACKGROUND:

The Consolidated Annual Performance and Evaluation Report (CAPER) is required of all jurisdictions that receive Community Development Block Grant (CDBG) entitlement funds from the U.S.

Department of Housing and Urban Development (HUD).

This report outlines the City’s progress in utilizing Community Development Block Grant (CDBG) funds during Program Year (PY) 2024, which spans from July 1, 2024, to June 30, 2025. During this period, the City expended an estimated $531,855 in CDBG entitlement funds and an additional $384,769 in CDBG program income, primarily generated from the repayment of prior loans. Expenditure amounts will be finalized before submission to HUD.

Report Components
The CAPER includes the following key components:

1. Narrative Summary

This section details the activities carried out during the 2024–2025 fiscal year. It evaluates their alignment with the objectives and priorities established in the City’s Annual Action Plan and the five-year Consolidated Plan.

2. Summary of Specific Annual Goals and Objectives
This section provides a breakdown of each program activity, including budgeted amounts, expenditures, and program outcomes.
(Refer to Attachment A-1, Table 1 – Accomplishments)

3. Financial Summary
This section summarizes the financial performance of the CDBG program for the fiscal year.

Most sections of the CAPER—except the narrative—are generated through HUD’s Integrated Disbursement and Information System (IDIS). Throughout the program year, City staff input data into IDIS to monitor expenditures and track progress toward program goals. HUD requires all CDBG entitlement communities to annually assess and publicly report on their performance in implementing the Action Plan.

In accordance with HUD regulations and the City’s Citizen Participation Plan (CPP), staff facilitated public engagement by publishing a bilingual public notice announcing both the public review period and the public hearing.

Public Review and Comment Period:

Draft copies of the proposed CAPER were made available for public review and comment for 15 days, from August 29 to September 15, 2025. As of the date of this report, no public comments have been received.

The final CAPER must be submitted to HUD by September 30, 2025, which is 90 days after the end of the program year (June 30, 2025).

FISCAL IMPACT:

Submitting this report in compliance with HUD requirements ensures the City remains eligible to receive continued CDBG grant funding.

INTRODUCTION
The Consolidated Annual Performance and Evaluation Report (CAPER) for the City of Hanford covers the period from July 1, 2024, to June 30, 2025 The City's Five-Year Consolidated Plan outlines housing, homelessness, community, and economic development needs and resources. This plan creates a Strategic Plan for the City to meet those needs. The Strategic Plan consists of three parts: needs assessment, a housing market analysis, and long-term strategies to address priority needs. The Annual Action Plan describes the projects and activities the City will undertake in the coming year using its CDBG funds. The Action Plan also includes certifications that the City will meet requirements, such as furthering fair housing.

The CAPER assesses the City's performance for all HUD formula grant programs, specifically the Community Development Block Grant (CDBG).

It evaluates if the City has met the objectives and goals established in the Five-Year Consolidated and Annual Action Plan.

PY 2024-2025 is the first year of the Five-Year Consolidated Planning Period (Program Years 2024-2028).

CR-OS - CiOALS AND OUTCOMES
Progress has been made in the jurisdiction's strategic plan and action plan. 91.520(a) This overview could include major initiatives and highlights proposed and executed throughout the program year.

The Consolidated Annual Performance Evaluation Report (CAPER) reports the City's success in meeting the goals contained in the Consolidated Plan and assesses the City's progress in conducting priorities of assistance identified in the 2024-2025 Annual Action Plan (Annual Plan)
As a Community Development Block Grant (CDBG) entitlement community, the City of Hanford is required to submit an annual CAPER. While not directly receiving HOME funds, the City had active HOME program income funds. During this reporting period, the HOME grant provided mortgage assistance to one first-time homebuyer.

In 2024-25, the City was allocated $544,484 in CDBG entitlement funds and received an additional $582,753 in Program Income CDBG funds, totaling $1,127,237.

The first year's Annual Action Plan prioritized goals and projects, including creating a sustainable living environment and providing decent housing and services to low- and moderate-income residents.

A comparison of the proposed versus actual outcomes for each outcome measure is submitted with the consolidated plan, and, if applicable, the reasons for not making progress toward meeting goals and objectives are explained. 91.520(g) The required information for each grantee's program year goals includes categories, priority levels, funding sources and amounts, outcomes, goal outcome indicators, units of measure, targets, actual results, and percentage completion. 4

Assess how the jurisdiction's use of funds, particularly CDBG, aligns with the priorities and specific objectives identified in the plan, with special attention to the highest-priority activities.

The City's goal is to continue addressing the priority needs and specific objectives of the Consolidated Plan. Through community input, the city has identified the following as "High" priority needs in the community:
• Affordable Housing
• Public Facilities
• Public Services
• Public Improvements
• Economic Development
As an entitlement grantee for the U.S. Department of Housing and Urban Development (HUD) formula CDBG program, the City of Hanford must prepare a CAPER to analyze and summarize program accomplishments of the preceding program year.

The CAPER reports meeting overall five-year Consolidated Plan goals and priorities (July 1, 2024-June 30, 2028). It identifies areas for improvement resulting from annual selfevaluations and HUD performance reviews.

The City of Hanford was consistent with its goal of providing housing opportunities for Hanford's low- to moderate-income families and preserving the existing housing stock.

The city remains committed to providing a full range of housing opportunities throughout the community and intends to support the development of housing opportunities in the town. As such, the city will engage in programs that further improve the supply of lowerincome housing. Below are the programmed activities for PY 2024, along with the accomplishments associated with each activity.

During the fifth year of the Consolidated Plan, the City of Hanford was consistent with its goal of providing housing opportunities for Hanford's low- to moderate-income families and preserving the existing housing stock.

Housing Rehabilitation-Emergency Repair Program:

The Emergency Repair Program (ERP) in Hanford provides prompt financial assistance to homeowners facing urgent repair needs that pose health and safety risks. The program offers grant funding to low- and moderate-income households to address these critical issues.

In the most recent fiscal year, ERP supported 18 households. During the 2024 program year, staff coordinated:
• 8 roof replacements
• 2 HVAC system replacements
• 1 plumbing repair
• Exterior repainting for seven homes
• Lead-based paint remediation in 2 homes
These repairs help ensure that residents in need have safe and livable conditions. • Public Facility Improvements- Rehabilitation of Motel for Housing Conversion Project:
• Stardust Kings Tulare Homeless Alliance (KTHA) LLC
• 22 Unit - Sunrise Apartments Project, formerly the Stardust Motel - On December 1, 2020, the Council allocated $238,702 in CDBG CARES Act funding. In May 2022, an additional $188,000 was allocated through the 2023 Action Plan, bringing the total to $426,702. These funds were designated for Kings County Human Services to support the rehabilitation and conversion of the Stardust Motel. To help expedite the project and ensure timely use of the funds, Kings County Human Services later requested that the City redirect the funding to Stardust KTHA, LLC, for completion of the Sunrise project. 6

7 The bulk of the conversion to permanent housing was completed in 2024. Unit upgrades include installing kitchens, removing and replacing existing drywall and flooring, upgrading MEP systems throughout each unit and the building, and making ADA upgrades throughout the units and property. A backorder on the switchgear required to electrify the apartment complex put the project on hold for months.

Kings Community Action Organization (KCAO) will take over the operations and the ownership of the complex as it begins to fill with tenants. Not all the units have a resident, and the requirements for individuals to reside in the Sunrise Apartments include having been homeless for a year or more and being afflicted with a disability. Sunrise Apartments, which will house up to 22 individuals struggling with homelessness. As of the date of this report 17 units have been occupied.

Fair Housing:

CSET continued to promote and implement its Fair Housing education program through social media outreach and partnerships with community agencies. Activities included two public presentations and the distribution of comprehensive Fair Housing information at events such as the Kings County Fair and the Senior Health Fair. The program met its goal of assisting 478 individuals through one-on-one interactions, educational presentations, and outreach events.

Kings/Tulare Homeless Alliance, aka the (COC):

Leveraging:

Explain how federal funds leveraged additional resources (private, state, and local funds), including how matching requirements were satisfied and how any publicly owned land or property located within the jurisdiction was used to address the needs identified in the plan.

Private resources, combined with Federal resources, consist of first mortgages issued to qualifying first-time homebuyers from lenders participating in the City's First Time Home Buyer Program. The City also continues to leverage its First-Time Home Buyer Program and other housing programs with Revolving Loan Program Income Funds derived from the repayment of CDBG and State grants, such as HOME and CalHome loans.

CDBG and HOME allocations are leveraged through the City's partnerships. For example, CDBG public service dollars leverage state and other federal funding for homeless grant funding obtained by local nonprofit agencies through the State of California and HUD, including the Continuum of Care.

Additionally, they will seek to leverage other sources, including, but not limited to, those listed below.
• State Low-Income Housing Tax Credit Program
• Permanent Local Housing Allocation (PLHA)
• CDBG-CV2
• HOME Key
• Roomkey/CARES
• Private Contributions
• City Housing Funds

CR-25 - HOMELESS AND OTHER SPECIAL NEEDS 91.220(0, E); 91.320(0, E); 91.520(C)
Evaluate the jurisdiction's progress in meeting its specific objectives for reducing and ending homelessness through:

Reaching out to homeless people (especially unsheltered people) and assessing their individual needs
The City of Hanford, in partnership with the Kings/Tulare Homeless Alliance (KTHA), diligently addresses homelessness within the city.

KTHA, the local Continuum of Care, coordinates efforts amongst service providers, faithbased partners, governmental agencies, and other key stakeholders. KTHA hosts multiple monthly meetings, such as the Case Management Roundtable, Membership Meetings (Executive, Community/Stakeholder, and Training), and the Kings County Homeless Services Partnership Meeting.

Outreach efforts have been a critical focus. The Kings View PATH team, Hanford Police Department HART (Homeless Assistance Resource Team), Champions Outreach team, Kings Community Action Organization outreach team, and KTHA Housing Navigators conduct ongoing outreach to connect people who are least likely to access resources.

Since July 2020, 1625, people experiencing homelessness have been assessed for housing. During this fiscal year 24/25, a total of 375 individuals and families experiencing homelessness enrolled in Coordinated Entry were referred to permanent housing, and 79 families were placed into housing.

In 2024, with the help of outreach teams and service providers, KTHA's Coordinate Entry Systems referred 22 individuals and families experiencing homelessness to housing at Northstar Courts, an affordable housing complex. In 2025, KTHA referred 22 individuals experiencing homelessness to the new Sunrise Homekey project that is currently operated and owned by KCAO.

In 2023, Champions was awarded HHAP 4 funds to establish an outreach team and purchase a shower unit, providing showers to individuals experiencing homelessness.

Champions has started parking the shower unit at different locations. The project was expanded in 2024 through HHAP 5 to include rapid rehousing rental assistance for individuals experiencing homelessness in Kings County. All Champions Rapid Rehousing program referrals will go through the Coordinated Entry System.

The Coordinated Entry System, operated by KTHA, includes virtually all homeless service providers within the City of Hanford. In addition to Every Door Open approach, people experiencing homelessness can have an assessment completed by contacting 2-1-1. 19

Addressing the emergency shelter and transitional housing needs of homeless people Within the City of Hanford, the following programs provide emergency shelter and transitional housing for people experiencing homelessness:
.:·
.,,. Year- Program Organization Name Program Name Round Type Beds Kings Community Action

The emergency shelters that opened because of COVI D-19's Project Room key program have shut down, resulting in the closure of the temporary shelters Sunrise (22 beds) and Holiday Lodge (59 beds). Both facilities are currently undergoing conversion to affordable permanent housing.

Helping low-income individuals and families avoid becoming homeless, especially highly low-income individuals and families and those who are likely to become homeless after being discharged from publicly funded institutions and systems of care (such as health care facilities, mental health facilities, foster care, and other youth facilities, and corrections programs and institutions): and, receiving assistance from public or private agencies that address housing, health, social services, employment, education, or youth needs. 20

Helping homeless persons (especially chronically homeless individuals and families, families with children, veterans and their families, and unaccompanied youth) make the transition to permanent housing and independent living, including shortening the period that individuals and families experience homelessness, facilitating access for homeless individuals and families to affordable housing units. and preventing individuals and families who were recently homeless from becoming homeless again.

The Alliance continues to utilize the Landlord Mitigation Fund to increase the inventory of landlords and property managers willing to lease units to people experiencing homelessness. The fund is designed to incentivize Landlords to relax screening criteria for people who are experiencing homelessness and who may have barriers that prevent them from securing housing on their own, such as poor credit and past evictions. By offering a Fund to mitigate Landlord exposure to the increased costs of renting to individuals experiencing homelessness, including excess damage and unpaid rent, a strong relationship can be established with Landlords who may otherwise be hesitant to lease to these individuals and families.

The Alliance works closely on CalAIM's integration into the homeless response system.

CalAIM services include housing tenancy and housing support, which provides funds to help people secure housing (such as arrears, security deposits, etc.), as well as case management and support once someone is housed. This can decrease the length of time someone experiences homelessness and the rate at which people return to homelessness once housed.

The Coordinated Entry System collaborates with the top five households of each intervention type on the Housing Priority List to ensure they are document-ready. This focus has reduced the time people spend on the streets waiting to be placed once a unit becomes available.
21

CR-30 - PUBLIC HOUSING 91.220(H); 91.320(J)
Actions taken to address the needs of public housing
Kings County Housing Authority provides public housing. The provision of public housing is a function of county government; therefore, the City will not supply funding for this segment. The Housing Authority provides low-income families with decent, safe, sanitary, affordable rental housing. Additionally, the Housing Authority offers rental assistance to individuals and families through Section 8 Housing Choice Vouchers and affordable housing programs.
22

CR-35 - OTHER ACTIONS 91.220(J)-(K); 91.320(I)-(J)
Actions taken to remove or lessen the negative effects of public policies that serve as barriers to affordable housing include land use controls, tax policies affecting land, zoning ordinances, building codes, fees and charges, growth limitations, and policies affecting the return on residential investment. 91.220 O); 91.320 (i) The City of Hanford adopted the 2035 General Plan on April 24, 2017. Zoning ordinance changes were made during the updating process, and all policies and procedures were reviewed to determine whether they should be updated, removed, or otherwise amended.

The City's Housing Element requires each city and county to identify existing and projected housing needs within the jurisdiction and prepare goals and policies.

The City has instituted several policies and programs that encourage the development and preservation of affordable housing, including the development of new affordable housing, the clearance of blighted properties for reuse as new housing, and the rehabilitation of existing houses.

Actions taken to address obstacles to meeting underserved needs. 91.220(k); 91.3200) The City of Hanford will continue to support the efforts of local agencies that serve special populations, such as the elderly, frail elderly, homeless persons, female heads of households, persons with disabilities, drug/alcohol addiction, farm workers, and persons with HIV/ AIDS. These agencies have an established support system in Kings County to serve these populations. Programs that the city offers that assist special populations and people experiencing homelessness in transition to permanent housing include:
• First-time homebuyer programs.
• Housing rehabilitation.
• Habitat for Humanity.
• A multi-family low-income complex funded through HOME and low-income Housing Tax Credits.
23

Achievements in the fiscal year to provide affordable housing include, but are not limited to, the following:

Here's a revised and professionally polished version of your bullet points to improve clarity, consistency, and tone:
• Administered a first-time homebuyer program designed to provide mortgage assistance to two eligible buyers to support housing affordability. Although approximately $2,000,000 in HOME Program Income (Pl) was allocated for Program Year 2024-2025, no assistance was provided due to the program being placed on hold by the California Department of Housing and Community Development. • Managed a housing rehabilitation program offering grants for essential health and safety repairs, with a total allocation of $270,616 for this activity. • Provided abatement services through the Code Compliance Program, enhancing the quality of life for low- to moderate-income homeowners through the correction of code violations and property maintenance issues.
• Continued collaboration and funding support for the Kings/Tulare Continuum of Care, allocating $10,000 toward homelessness prevention efforts.

Actions taken to reduce lead-based paint hazards. 91.220(k); 91.3200) Lead is a highly toxic metal that may cause various health problems, especially in young children. When lead is absorbed into the body, it can cause damage to the brain and other vital organs, such as the kidneys, nerves, and blood. Lead-based paint was banned for residential use in 1978; therefore, housing built before 1978 is considered at risk of having lead-based paint. In Hanford, twenty-three percent (23%) of the City's housing stock is 30 years old or more. The City implemented the following strategies to reduce the presence of lead-based paint
• Implemented the lead-based paint regulations of 24 CFR Part 92 in all federally assisted City housing programs, ensuring the safety of our residents. • Enforced federal laws through the permit process and code enforcement services by requiring contractors to be certified, ensuring the highest safety standards in our housing programs.
• Provided 'Renovate Right' pamphlets to homeowners, homebuyers, and contractors, equipping them with the necessary knowledge to tackle lead-based paint Hazards.
• For PY 2024-25, the City assisted two homeowners with lead abatement. 24

Actions were taken to reduce the number of families living in poverty. 91.220(k); 91.3200) In cooperative efforts, the city continues to work with Continuum of Care, its partnering towns, and non-profit agencies to identify resources available to reduce the number of persons living below the poverty level and address the community's needs.

The city has also engaged with housing, service, and faith-based organizations to encourage partnerships and collaborate on addressing high-priority needs identified in the 10-year Homeless Plan. Subgroup committees were formed to improve the 2-1-1 program, housing opportunities, and services.

Actions taken to develop institutional structure. 91.220(k); 91.3200) There is still much work to be done in achieving ADA compliance. Still, staff will continue to work diligently to address any monitoring and transition plan findings and recommendations to ensure that our programs comply with the applicable HUD regulations.

The Community Development Department oversees the City's CDBG Program. This staff has worked diligently to improve policies, procedures, and practices, ensuring the City's program complies with CDBG regulations. While much more work is still needed, the City's program has shown improvement. The staff is confident about the recent activities selected and how funding has been expended.

Certification of Consistency:

The city assisted three agencies with the certification of consistency.

Actions taken to enhance coordination between public and private housing and social service agencies. 91.220(k); 91.3200)
The city continues to coordinate regional services through the Kings Tulare Homeless Alliance, Habitat for Humanity, Self-Help Enterprises, Kings County Health Services, and other networking opportunities.
❖ Stardust Kings Tulare Homeless Alliance (KTHA) LLC
❖ Sunrise Apartments Project, formerly the Stardust Motel 25

On December 1, 2020, the Council allocated $238,702 in May 2022 and an additional $188,000 in the 2023 Action Plan to Kings County Human Services for the Stardust Motel rehab conversion project. Since then, to oblige the funding and expedite the project, Kings County Human Services has requested that the City redirect the funds to Stardust KTHA, LLC, to complete the Sunrise project.

Northstar Apartments
On October 3, 2024, we celebrated the grand opening of Northstar Courts, a vital addition to our community, which provides 72 units of permanent, affordable housing in Hanford.

The event drew over 100 community members who gathered in the property's community room for a celebration that included guest speakers, a ribbon-cutting ceremony, and familyfriendly activities.

Northstar Courts features one-, two-, and three-bedroom apartments designed for individuals and families, with some units reserved for households including farm workers, individuals with disabilities, and those transitioning out of homelessness. The units are income-restricted based on household size, ensuring that families in need can access this critical resource. The development is not only about providing shelter but fostering a supportive community, equipped with amenities such as onsite management, a large community room, a playground, outdoor seating, and access to behavioral health resources.
"This beautiful complex offers more than a safe home; it is a life change," wrote Northstar resident Sylvia Moreno in a letter that was read during the ceremony. "It is the foundation of a new and positive life. Northstar also offers behavioral health resources that are available on-site. It is truly a blessing to be living here." This project would not have been possible without the support of key funding partners, including the California Debt Limit Allocation Committee, the California Tax Credit Allocation Committee, the California Department of Housing and Community Development, the City of Hanford, Kings County, Walker Dunlop, and Key Bank. 26

The project is funded through 4% Low-Income Housing Tax Credits, soft funding from the Department of Housing and Community Development through competitive No Place Like Home funds, City of Hanford PLHA funds, Kings County Whole Person Care pilot, King County Human Services Agency's HHAP funds, private investment, and private financing.

Identify actions taken to overcome the effects of any impediments identified in the jurisdiction's analysis of impediments to fair housing choice. 91.520(a) An Analysis of Impediments (Al) to Fair Housing Choice, 2024-2028, was updated.

The local government can play a crucial role in providing a diverse range of housing types and ensuring housing availability that meets the needs of all sectors of the public. The City of Hanford offers affordable housing assistance programs and implements several fair housing-related policies. The city does not have a formally established fair housing policy.

Still, it is committed to collaborating with community stakeholders and local advocacy partners to create a comprehensive and fair housing system and to implement similar fair housing procedures. In addition, the city will continue to work with regional public transit providers to identify any opportunities to improve public transit serving low-income households and special-needs populations (including older people and persons with disabilities). The city will pay particular attention to the transit needs of areas where housing is affordable for low-income households and individuals with special needs.

As an entitlement grantee, the City of Hanford is required to ensure that its programs affirmatively further access to fair housing and that its policies and procedures do not discriminate against individuals based on any protected class, which would deny the opportunity to participate in access or benefit from the programs and activities carried out as part of the CDBG Program. As an entitlement grantee, the City of Hanford is required to ensure that its programs affirmatively further access to fair housing and that its policies and procedures do not discriminate against individuals based on any protected class, which would deny the opportunity to participate in access or benefit from the programs and activities carried out as part of the CDBG Program. The City has partnered with the City of Porterville and jointly solicited proposals from qualified organizations to develop, implement, and administer a Fair Housing Program, which has been implemented. The agency has been offering workshops in our community.

In cases of alleged discrimination, residents are provided with information regarding fair housing law, a HUD discrimination complaint form, and referrals to legal services, the State Department of Fair Housing and Employment, and other relevant agencies.

The City has partnered with a HUD-approved housing counseling agency (Community Services Employment Training, Inc.) to provide homebuyer education; this agreement was entered before the new HUD mandate. The foreclosure education and referral process has had a positive impact on helping homeowners facing foreclosure with options that could prevent foreclosure and provide the public with important housing information. 28

Affirmative Outreach to Applicants and Participants
The City will continue collecting data on race, ethnicity, national origin, disability, and the gender of the head of household for applicants, participants, and beneficiaries of funded programs to identify any underrepresented protected class groups. Staff will analyze the data annually and adjust outreach strategies as needed. Additionally, the City will continue to conduct outreach at community events and via community partners who serve low- to moderate-income households and LEP clients, providing materials in both English and Spanish.
29

Fair Housing Services
Hanford collaborates with federal, state, and regional agencies to promote open housing choices and equal housing opportunity. Depending on the nature of the complaints, the City of Hanford currently refers complaints regarding housing discrimination to the CSET, the Fair Housing Council of Central California, Legal Aid of Central California, California Rural Legal Aid, the Fresno County Housing Authority (Fair Housing Unit), and the State Department of Fair Employment and Housing. The City has an agreement with CSET to provide Fair Housing education for Hanford residents.

Additionally, service agencies were available to provide free legal advice on renter and homeowner rights, Housing Counseling, Section 8 program information, Employment Services, Domestic violence, and Homeless programs.

Whenever the City has a booth at community events promoting housing programs, fair housing information is provided in English and Spanish.

As previously discussed in CR-05, the City also allocates entitlement funds to provide Fair Housing education services. The City believes that the review of strategies used to overcome or eliminate impediments to fair housing choice demonstrates progress in meeting the approach developed in the Al over the year. 30

CR-40 - MONITORING 91.220 AND 91.230
Describe the standards and procedures used to monitor activities conducted in furtherance of the plan and used to ensure long-term compliance with requirements of the programs involved, including minority business outreach and the comprehensive planning requirements.

The City of Hanford's staff provides ongoing technical assistance and monitors each subrecipient. City staff conducted desktop monitoring for all sub-recipient sub-grantee agencies to ensure compliance.

Staff monitors other programs daily and as needed for capital projects. This review will include, but is not limited to, environmental assessment, contract supervision, prevailing wage compliance, reporting, reimbursement request review, and processing.

The city takes an initiative-taking approach and continually evaluates programs and activities to ensure they meet targeted goals and align with current funding levels. When funds are moving slowly, it is recommended to consider another project or program.

Citizen Participation Plan 91.105(d); 91.115(d) Describe the efforts to provide citizens with reasonable notice and an opportunity to comment on performance reports.

Before submitting the CAPER to HUD, a notice soliciting public comment is published in English and Spanish in the Hanford Sentinel Publication of the information allows for a 15- day comment period (August 29, 2025, through September 15, 2025) and time to prepare a summary of comments. In addition, copies of the CAPER are available for public review at the City Hall Community Development Department's counter and on the City's website.

The CAPER requires a public hearing before the City Council for approval of the document before submitting it to HUD. Community hearings are held in a community space, considering the convenience to beneficiaries of the entitlement program resources. A Public Hearing is scheduled for September 16, 2025, at 7:00 p.m., located in the Council Chambers, 400 N. Douty Street, Hanford, CA 93230.

Copies of the report are available at the City of Hanford Community Development Department and on the City of Hanford website.

A copy was also placed at the Hanford Branch Library located at 401 N Douty St, Hanford, CA 93230.

Public Comments: The comments received will be included in the final document at the end of the public review period and public hearing.

CR-45 - CDBC 91.520(C)
Please specify the nature and reasons for any changes in the jurisdiction's program objectives and indicate how the jurisdiction would change its programs based on its experiences.

The 2024-25 program year was the first year of implementation in the City of Hanford's 2024-28 five-year Consolidated Plan. The Consolidated Plan outlines the priority needs and goals for the CDBG program over five years, from July 1, 2024, to June 30, 2028, encompassing five program years.

The city continues to take an initiative-taking approach. It continually evaluates programs, projects, policies, and activities to meet targeted goals and align with current funding levels. Based on experience, challenging and strategic recommendations are made to the City Council. For example, an alternate priority project or program is recommended when funding is moving slowly.

Self-Help Enterprises San Joaquin
Valley Infill Homeownership Project
Hanford and Fresno, CA (2024)
A - nationally recognized California community development organization, SelfHelp Enterprises (SHE), works with low-income families, often in rural areas to build and sustain healthy homes and communities. Since 1965, SHE has served over 65,000 families, many of whom are the Latino farmworkers who provide our food but are unable to find decent affordable housing, including lack of water and sewer services, for their families. There is a critical housing shortage in the area and affordable for-sale housing stock, in particular.

NMTC enables 19 low- and very low-income BIPOC
families attain the dream of homeownership
"The New Markets Tax Credits
closed a critical gap in funding for
the project, which in fact made
the endeavor feasible. The result is
both an aUordable housing success
and wealth building opportunity
for buyers of color who have
traditionally been left out of the
homeownership market."
-Torn Collishaw, President/CEO,
Self-Help Enterprises
The Fresno sites are part of a previous redevelopment area and are also complementary to SH E's nearby mutual self-help housing program development. Both sites are located near grocery stores, jobs, and public transport. SHE focused on providing homeownership opportunities for low-income families because homeownership is the single most powerful economic tool to break the cycle of poverty, create wealth and equitable opportunity in formerly marginalized communities who have not previously had access to homeownership and financial counseling, homebuyer services including realtors, and mortgages.

In addition to quality new affordable homes, SHE provides all of its buyers with wraparound services such as multiple types and levels of homebuyer education, financial counseling and budget management courses. SHE also provides secondary loans through numerous homeownership programs and loans for water well drilling or replacement.

The NMTC financing will enable additional low-income families who cannot qualify for the self-help housing program to purchase a home. SHE used NMTC financing to subsidize the difference between the cost to construct and the affordable $290,000 purchase price. Without the financing, SHE would have had to delay the project.

Nonprofit affordable homeownership developers lack access to affordable capital due to misconceptions about the risk of developing homes and selling to low- to moderate- income homebuyers in underserved communities.

NMTCs are the only federal tax credit available to help fill that gap.

This project resulted in 19 low-income families purchasing a home in which they already have substantiale equity. This is an investment in the community, families, and their descendants for generations to come. Page 24 Attachment A-2: Infill Homeownership Project Accomplishment

Acknowledgements
The considerable efforts and talents of many individuals helped to ensure the success of the Point in Time count in Kings and Tulare Counties. The Kings/Tulare Homeless Alliance would like to thank the U.S. Department of Housing and Urban Development and the Cities of Hanford, Porterville, Tulare, and Visalia for their ongoing support. The Kings/Tulare Homeless Alliance would like to thank jurisdiction staff, community members, and service providers, who facilitated the process of outreach and distributing surveys. Finally, the Kings/Tulare Homeless Alliance would like to express gratitude to the survey respondents and recognize the significance of their contribution to understanding the state of homelessness in the community.

Summary
Each year, the Kings/Tulare Homeless Alliance conducts a Point in Time (PIT) count of the number of people experiencing sheltered and unsheltered homelessness within Kings and Tulare Counties. Information and data gathered through the PIT count are used by the Alliance and partner agencies to better understand the issues associated with homelessness including causes, service gaps, unmet housing needs, and homeless trends.

The Kings/Tulare Homeless Alliance is the local Continuum of Care on Homelessness and reports the findings of the Point in Time Count annually to the U.S Department of Housing and Urban Development (HUD). HUD requires all Continuum of Care on Homelessness (CoCs) to conduct a Point in Time Count.
2025 Point-in-Time Report for Kings and Tulare Counties 01

Methodology
Kings and Tulare Counties conducted their 2025 Point in Time (PIT) count on the night of January 26-27. Volunteers from local jurisdictions, law enforcement, the faith-based community, nonprofit partners, and community stakeholders came together to conduct short surveys with people who meet the United States Department of Housing and Urban Development's (HUD) definition of homeless.

Volunteers canvassed locations where people experiencing homelessness tend to congregate including encampments, libraries, food distribution sites, etc. The PIT Report provides a snapshot of the people experiencing homelessness in Kings and Tulare Counties.

There were over 100 volunteers who participated in conducting surveys with people experiencing homeless in the 2025 PIT count. Some communities (Hanford, Porterville, and Visalia) did utilize regularly scheduled drop-in navigation centers to facilitate the count.

The Kings/Tulare Homeless Alliance led multiple meetings and trainings to plan the PIT count beginning in November of 2024. The Cities of Porterville, Tulare, and Visalia, as well as Kings County, each had their own PIT subcommittee led by two or three people knowledgeable about homelessness in the region. Decisions on canvassing/mapping, incentives, and overall approach were made by each subcommittee and supported by the Kings/Tulare Homeless Alliance. 2025 Point-in-Time Report for Kings and Tulare Counties 02

Overview of Results
The 2025 PIT count saw a decrease of 200 individuals (1,672 people in 2024 vs. 1,472 people in 2025) or a 12% decrease in the number of people experiencing sheltered and unsheltered homelessness in Kings and Tulare Counties.

The number of people experiencing chronic homelessness increased by 48 individuals (468 people in 2024 vs. 516 in 2025), or a 10% increase.

Chronic homelessness is defined by HUD as an individual with one or more disabling conditions, or a family with a head of household with a disabling condition, who:
• Has been continuously homeless for one year or more and/or, • Has experienced four or more episodes totaling 12 months or more of homelessness within the past three years.

There were 14 more people accessing emergency shelter beds in 2025 (237 individuals) than in 2024 (223 individuals), which is a 6% increase.

In the 2024 Point-in-Time (PIT) count, the City of Hanford recorded 371 individuals, compared to 280 in 2025, showing a decrease of 25%. The City of Porterville also saw a decline, from 309 individuals in 2024 to 267 in 2025, down 14% from the previous year. The City of Tulare experienced an increase of 7%, with 302 individuals in 2024 rising to 324 in 2025. The City of Visalia recorded 587 individuals in 2024 and 513 in 2025, reflecting a decrease of 13%.

All efforts were made to uniformly support each community to conduct the PIT count and each was completed as accurately as possible
