AGENDA

STAFF REPORT

MEETING DATE: 3/3/2026 AGENDA SECTION: CONSENT CALENDAR

SUBJECT:

Approval of the purchase of two (2) 2026 Chevrolet EV trucks from Keller Chevrolet of Hanford, CA and required upfitting from Cooks Communication for a total cost of $166,765 and an appropriation of $36,765 from Measure H Capital Projects fund to fully cover the cost.

RECOMMENDATION:

Recommendation:

That the City Council authorize the purchase of two (2) 2026 Chevy Silverado EV trucks from Keller Chevrolet of Hanford, CA in the amount of $124,120.36 and related upfitting from Cooks Communications in the amount of $42,643.74 for a total cost of $166,765 and appropriate $36,765 from the Measure H Capital Projects fund to fully cover the cost.

Recommended Motion:

That by motion, the City Council authorize the purchase of two (2) 2026 Chevy Silverado EV trucks from Keller Chevrolet of Hanford, CA in the amount of $124,120.36 and related upfitting from Cooks Communications in the amount of $42,643.74 for a total cost of $166,765 and appropriate $36,765 from the Measure H Capital Projects fund to fully cover the cost.

BACKGROUND:

In 2024, the citizens of Hanford approved Measure H. A portion of Measure H calls out a specific expenditure plan that was overwhelmingly approved by the Measure H Citizen Committee. Within the expenditure plan, it calls for the hiring of two Community Service Officers within the police department. The purchase of these vehicles will provide the support needed for the daily activities of the newly hired officers.

At the June 17, 2025, the Council approved the purchase and upfitting of two (2) Ford F150 Lightning EV truck. A purchase order was issued, and the order was placed with National Auto Fleet Group of Watsonville, CA.

Before production commenced, the City received notice that Ford was canceling all production of the Ford Lightning line of vehicles and the order would not be fulfilled.

The City of Hanford Fleet Services and Hanford Police Department have worked closely in an effort to balance the needs of the Hanford Police Department, while meeting State-mandated vehicle emissions. Due to emission requirements, it was determined that the purchase of two (2) Chevrolet

Page 195 of 361 ends

Silverado EV WT with extended battery would meet both Hanford Police Department's needs and align the City Fleet Services with State mandates.

FISCAL IMPACT:

The Measure H Capital Projects Fund allocated $130,000 for the purchase of Community Service Officer vehicles. However, an additional appropriation of $36,765 is required to fully cover the cost.

This additional amount will be fully offset by cost savings realized from other Police Department vehicle purchases within the Measure H Capital Projects Fund. Therefore, there is no net fiscal impact to the fund.

AGENDA

STAFF REPORT

MEETING DATE: 3/3/2026 AGENDA SECTION: CONSENT CALENDAR

SUBJECT:

Award of a contract in the amount of $248,808.80 for the replacement of the Bayoxide Media Filter at Well 50 located at the corner of Hanford-Armona and 9th Avenue

RECOMMENDATION:

Recommendation:

Staff recommends that the City Council Authorize the City Manager to execute a contract with Layne Christensen Company, in the amount of $248,808.80 for the removal, replacement and disposal of the arsenic filter media at Well 50, located at the southwest corner of Hanford-Armona Rd and 9th Ave.

Recommended Motion:

I motion to authorize the City Manager to execute the media filtration removal, replacement and disposal contract with Layne Christensen Company in the amount of $248,808.80.

BACKGROUND:

Well 50 is located on the southeast corner of Hanford-Armona Rd. and 9th Ave and was drilled in 2015 and put into city service in 2016. In October 2019, an arsenic treatment plant was installed at Well 50, at a cost of $1.2 million. The Bayoxide media filtration for the treatment plant has a life expectancy of 2 to 4 years, depending on the level of treatment and the time the well is in service.

The Bayoxide media filter is manufactured in Germany and used exclusively at Well 50.

The Well 50 treatment plant's filter is nearing the end of its projected life cycle. As of the last water test, the site was reported at 7.0 parts per million, still below the State of California standard of 8.0 parts per million. The well must be shutoff once the level reaches 8.0. Therefore, with the test results close to meeting the state's threshold, staff took a proactive approach to request quotes in an effort to expedite the removal, disposal and replacement of the filter in advance of potential arsenic spikes and prior to the high summer demand.

City staff requested quotes from various vendors following an informal bid process, and received the following three quotes (copies included in this report):

Vendor Bid Amount

Page 214 of 361 ends

Layne Christensen Company $248,808.80
AdEdge $252,572.53
Telstar Instruments $355,823.00

Layne Christensen Company is the apparent low bidder based on the lowest quote of $248,808.80.

The quote price includes all applicable tax, shipping, material, and labor at the current prevailing wage rate. It should be noted that AdEdge's quote was slightly lower than what appears in the quote due to a re-calculation of taxable items. AdEdge's quote also does not include shipping; regardless the quote came in higher than Layne Christensen Company.

FISCAL IMPACT:

The budget for the filter has previously been appropriated using 0391 Water Funds and included in CIP No. 825608 (Well Media Filtration) and. There are sufficient funds in the project budget.

Therefore, no additional appropriations are needed at this time.

In no event shall Contractor be liable for any delays or special, indirect, incidental or consequential damages. Purchaser agrees that the total limit of Contractor’s liability (whether based on negligence, warranty, strict liability or otherwise) hereunder, shall not exceed the aggregate amount due Contractor for services rendered under this contract. All claims, including claims for negligence or any other cause whatsoever, shall be deemed waived unless made in writing and received by Contractor within one (1) year after Contractor’s completion of work hereunder.

INSURANCE: Contractor shall provide workers’ compensation insurance, public liability and property damage insurance covering its employees and operation. Purchaser, at its option, may maintain such insurance as will protect it against claims arising out of the work.

REIMBURSABLE COST: In addition to the hourly charge provided on the face of this contract, Purchaser will reimburse Contractor for travel and living expenses necessarily incurred by the Contractor in the performance of the work, minor incidental expenses such as overnight mail, telephone and petty cash expenditures necessarily incurred, cost of removal of all debris if so directed by Purchaser, sales, consumer, use and similar taxes required by law and the cost of permits and all licenses necessary for the execution of the work. The foregoing costs shall be billed at actual cost plus fifteen percent (15%) unless otherwise agreed upon.

PRICE ADJUSTMENT: Any cost estimates or time frames stated herein are subject to equitable adjustment in the event of differing or unforeseeable conditions, changes in applicable laws after the date of this contract, unforeseeable delays or difficulties caused by acts of God, Purchaser or any third parties. Prices of goods acquired by Contractor from others shall be adjusted to reflect Contractor’s price in effect at time of shipment. The price of Contractor’s goods will be adjusted to the price in effect at time of shipment in accordance with Contractor’s current escalation policies or as specifically covered in this contract.

TERMS: Thirty (30) days net from date of invoice. For extended projects, Contractor shall submit invoices on a monthly basis for any and all work completed and materials or equipment provided during the previous month. Past due invoices shall be subject to a delinquency charge of one and one-half percent (1-1/2%) per month (eighteen percent (18%) per annum) unless a lower charge is required under applicable law, in which case the lower rate shall apply. Purchaser agrees to pay all collection fees, attorneys’ fees and costs incurred in the collection of any past due amounts arising out of this contract. Contractor shall have the right to immediately terminate this contract without further liability if Purchaser fails to make timely payment or otherwise materially breaches this contract.

MATERIAL SHORTAGES AND COST INCREASES: If any portion of materials or equipment which Contractor is required to furnish becomes unavailable, either temporarily or permanently, through causes beyond the control and without the fault of Contractor, then in the case of temporary unavailability any completion time frames shall be extended for such period of time as Contractor shall be delayed by such above-described unavailability, and in the case of permanent unavailability Contractor shall be excused from the requirement of furnishing such materials or equipment. Purchaser agrees to pay Contractor any increase in cost between the cost of the materials or equipment which have become permanently unavailable and the cost of the closest substitute which is then reasonably available.

DELAYS: If Contractor is delayed at any time in the progress of work by labor disputes, fire, unusual delays in transportation, unavoidable casualties, weather, or any cause beyond Contractor’s reasonable control, then any completion time frames shall be extended by a reasonable period of time, at least equal to the period of delay.

CHANGED CONDITIONS: The discovery of any hazardous waste, substances, pollutants, contaminants, underground obstructions or utilities on or in the job site which were not brought to the attention of Contractor prior to the date of this contract will constitute a materially different site condition entitling Contractor, at its sole discretion to immediately terminate this contract without further liability.

ESCALATION: This contract is made with the understanding that Contractor will be able to begin and continuously proceed with its work on or before the proposed start date on the reverse side hereof. In the event Contractor is unable to commence its work on or before said date because the project is not ready for Contractor's work, Contractor will charge Purchaser the amount of increase in Contractor's cost attributable to such delay, plus Contractor's normal overhead percentage.

GUARANTEE AND LIABILITY: Contractor warrants that its labor supplied hereunder shall be free from defect and shall conform to the standard of care in effect in its industry at the time of performance of such labor for a period of twelve (12) months after substantial completion of Contractor's work.

AGENDA

STAFF REPORT

MEETING DATE: 3/3/2026 AGENDA SECTION: CONSENT CALENDAR

SUBJECT:

Authorization for the City Manager to award a construction contract for The Plunge Mechanical Repairs to Oasis Pool and Spa, of Visalia, CA, in the amount of $161,815.00.

RECOMMENDATION:

Recommendation: It is recommended that the City Council authorize the City Manager to award a construction contract for the replacement of the slide pool filtration, backwash, and chemical monitoring systems, and installation of a new circulation pump to Oasis Pool and Spa, of Visalia, CA, in the amount of $161,815, per specifications of RFB 2026-13 Plunge Mechanical Repairs.

Recommended Motion: I move to authorize the City Manager to award a contract for the replacement of the slide pool filtration, backwash, and chemical monitoring systems, and installation of a new circulation pump to Oasis Pool and Spa, of Visalia, CA, in the amount of $161,815, per specifications of RFB 2026-13 Plunge Mechanical Repairs.

BACKGROUND:

The Plunge slide pool and slide structure were constructed in 1992 and since then the City of Hanford has completed several renovation and repair projects to keep the amenity in compliance with the California Department of Industrial Relations (DIR), Amusement Ride and Tramway (ART) Unit and the Virginia Graeme Baker Act pertaining to the pool drains and skimmers. Some of these renovations have included repairing the concrete support piers in 2013, the replacement of the stairway in 2016, a new water booster pump, with water meter, to ensure proper water flow in the slide in 2017, and replacement of the pool main drains.

The pool filtration system is now 30 plus years old. The filtration tank is showing signs of advanced corrosion to the steel tank, and the backwash system is now obsolete. The pool circulation pump is also ten (10) plus years old and will be replaced with a new variable frequency drive (VFD) motor that will be more efficient and conserve energy. Staff will also address other aging infrastructure while these renovations are being completed, such as the installation of a new chemical automation system, sensors, and monitoring probes. This will ensure the chemical levels are maintained at safe level for users.

With the more extensive work required to reach compliance with the slide pool, staff created a Request for Bids (RFB 2026-13). On December 23, 2025, the City solicited bids by posting the RFB on Bid-Net. Contractors can receive all related documents, addendum, plan holder lists, and award information. All bid documents were required to be included in Bidnet Direct’s California Purchasing Group website submission to be valid at the time of bid opening.

Page 224 of 361 ends

On January 8, 2026, a non-mandatory pre-bid meeting was held at The Plunge. Staff were present to review the bid specifications, review the mandatory requirements imposed by the State of California Department of Industrial Relations, and answer any questions. One (1) contractor attended the pre- bid meeting.

Unfortunately, On January 22, 2026, the City received no bids for The Plunge Mechanical Repairs Project. Staff then reached out to the contractor that attended the pre-bid meeting to inquire why no bid was submitted. He responded that his office staff had missed the submission date for the project and that they were still interested in bidding. Staff also reached out to other contractors that could perform the work. One local contractor, Oasis Pool and Spa, was interested in the project and was given the project specifications. Staff continued to reach out to the original contractor from the pre-bid meeting hoping to receive a proposal and still have not received any costs. Oasis Pool and Spa maintains large public pools for the Lemoore Naval Base and the Tachi Palace Casino Resort. They were able to submit an estimate that met the RFB specifications and are qualified to complete the project. Because of the time constraints on having the project completed for the pool season, staff are recommending the award of the repair project to Oasis Pool and Spa, of Visalia, CA.

This project requires a Public Works maintenance contract and, therefore, is subject to State of California prevailing wages, registration with the Department of Industrial Relations and submission of certified payroll to the Labor Commissioner as well as other requirements outlined in the City’s Labor Compliance Manual which was a part of the specifications.

FISCAL IMPACT:

The Plunge Remodel project is multi-funded using the Aquatics Capital/Equipment Replacement Reserve Fund and General Fund with a total appropriation of $425,014. The remaining available funds of this project are sufficient to cover the cost of the slide pool mechanical repairs for $161,815.

RFB 2026-11 has been previously awarded (12/16/25) in the amount of $75,764, and RFB 2026-12 Plunge Slide Pool Repairs awarded (2/03/26) in the amount of $58,152.

Contractors shall furnish the City with original certificates and amendatory endorsements or copies of the applicable policy language affecting coverage required by this clause. All certificates and endorsements are to be received and approved by the City before work commences.

However, failure to obtain the required documents prior to the work beginning shall not waive the Contractor’s obligation to provide them. The City reserves the right to require complete, certified copies of all required insurance policies, including endorsements required by these specifications, at any time.

All forms and endorsements are to list the City of Hanford as additional insured’s. The City reserves the right to require complete, certified copies of all required insurance policies, including endorsements required by these specifications, at any time.

Contractor hereby grants to City and its officers, officials, employees, and volunteers a waiver of any right to subrogation which any insurer of Contractor may acquire against the City and/or its officers, officials, employees, and volunteers by virtue of the payment of any loss under such insurance. Contractor agrees to obtain endorsements necessary to affect this waiver of subrogation, but this provision applies regardless of whether or not the City has received a waiver of subrogation endorsement from the insurer.

The Contractor shall cause a copy of the Director’s determination of the prevailing rate of per diem wages to be posted at a prominent place at the site of the Work. The possibility of wage increases is one of the elements to be considered by the Contractor in determining his bid and will not under any circumstances be considered as the basis of claim against the City. The Contractor shall comply with Labor Code section 1774 and 1775. In accordance with Labor Code section 1775, the Contractor shall forfeit as a penalty to the City not more than $50 for each Day or portion thereof for each worker paid less than the prevailing rates as determined by the director for the Work or craft in which the worker is employed for any Work or by any subcontractor under the Contractor.

The name and address of the contractor awarded the contract or the subcontractor performing the contract shall not be marked or obliterated. Any copy of records made available for inspection by, or furnished to, a joint labor -management committee established pursuant to the federal Labor Management Cooperation Act of 1978 (29 U.S.C. Sec. 175a) shall be marked or obliterated only to prevent disclosure of an individual's name and social security number.

PART 3 LABOR CODE SECTION 1777.5 - EMPLOYMENT OF PROPERLY REGISTERED

APPRENTICES

A. Nothing in this chapter shall prevent the employment of properly registered apprentices upon public works.

B. Every apprentice employed upon public works shall be paid the prevailing rate of per diem wages for apprentices in the trade to which he or she is registered and shall be employed only at the work of the craft or trade to which he or she is registered.

C. Only apprentices, as defined in Section 3077, who are in training under apprenticeship standards that have been approved by the Chief of the Division of Apprenticeship Standards and who are parties to written apprentice agreements under Chapter 4 (commencing with Section 3070) of Division 3 are eligible to be employed at the apprentice wage rate on public works. The employment and training of each apprentice shall be in accordance with either of the following:

(1) The apprenticeship standards and apprentice agreements under which he or she is training.
(2) The rules and regulations of the California Apprenticeship Council.

D. When the contractor to whom the contract is awarded by the state or any political subdivision, in performing any of the work under the contract, employs workers in any apprenticeable craft or trade, the contractor shall employ apprentices in at least the ratio set forth in this section and

Page 264 of 361 ends

RFB 2026-13
Plunge Mechanical Repairs
40 may apply to any apprenticeship program in the craft or trade that can provide apprentices to the site of the public work for a certificate approving the contractor under the apprenticeship standards for the employment and training of apprentices in the area or industry affected.

However, the decision of the apprenticeship program to approve or deny a certificate shall be subject to review by the Administrator of Apprenticeship. The apprenticeship program or programs, upon approving the contractor, shall arrange for the dispatch of apprentices to the contractor. A contractor covered by an apprenticeship program's standards shall not be required to submit any additional application in order to include additional public works contracts under that program. "Apprenticeable cr aft or trade," as used in this section, means a craft or trade determined as an apprenticeable occupation in accordance with rules and regulations prescribed by the California Apprenticeship Council. As used in this section, "contractor" includes any subcontractor under a contractor who performs any public works not excluded by subdivision (o).

E. Prior to commencing work on a contract for public works, every contractor shall submit contract award information to an applicable apprenticeship program that can supply apprentices to the site of the public work. The information submitted shall include an estimate of journeyman hours to be performed under the contract, the number of apprentices proposed to be employed, and the approximate dates the apprentices would be employed. A copy of this information shall also be submitted to the awarding body if requested by the awarding body.

Within 60 days after concluding work on the contract, each contractor and subcontractor shall submit to the awarding body, if requ ested, and to the apprenticeship program a verified statement of the journeyman and apprentice hours performed on the contract. The information under this subdivision shall be public. The apprenticeship programs shall retain this information for 12 months.

F. The apprenticeship program that can supply apprentices to the area of the site of the public work shall ensure equal employment and affirmative action in apprenticeship for women and minorities.

G. The ratio of work performed by apprentices to journeymen employed in a particular craft or trade on the public work may be no higher than the ratio stipulated in the apprenticeship standards under which the apprenticeship program operates where the contractor agrees to be bound by those standards, but, except as otherwise provided in this section, in no case shall the ratio be less than one hour of apprentice work for every five hours of journeyman work.

H. This ratio of apprentice work to journeyman work shall apply during any day or portion of a day when any journeyman is employed at the jobsite and shall be computed on the basis of the hours worked during the day by journeymen so employed. Any work performed by a journeyman in excess of eight hours per day or 40 hours per week shall not be used to calculate the ratio.

The contractor shall employ apprentices for the number of hours computed as above before the end of the contract or, in the case of a subcontractor, before the end of the subcontract.

However, the contractor shall endeavor, to the greatest extent possible, to employ apprentices during the same time period that the journeymen in the same craft or trade are employed at the jobsite. Where an hourly apprenticeship ratio is not feasible for a particular craft or trade, the Chief of the Division of Apprenticeship Standards, upon app lication of an apprenticeship program, may order a minimum ratio of not less than one apprentice for each five journeymen in a craft or trade classification.

Page 265 of 361 ends

RFB 2026-13
Plunge Mechanical Repairs
41 I. A contractor covered by this section that has agreed to be covered by an apprenticeship program's standards upon the issuance of the approval certificate, or that has been previously approved for an apprenticeship program in the craft or trade, shall emplo y the number of apprentices or the ratio of apprentices to journeymen stipulated in the applicable apprenticeship standards, but in no event less than the 1-to-5 ratio required by subdivision (g).

J. Upon proper showing by a contractor that he or she employs apprentices in a particular craft or trade in the state on all of his or her contracts on an annual average of not less than one hour of apprentice work for every five hours of labor performed by journeymen, the Chief of the Division of Apprenticeship Standards may grant a certificate exempting the contractor from the 1-to-5 hourly ratio, as set forth in this section for that craft or trade.

K. An apprenticeship program has the discretion to grant a certificate to a participating contractor or contractor association , which shall be subject to the approval of the Administrator of Apprenticeship, exempting the contractor from the 1-to-5 ratio set forth in this section when it finds that any one of the following conditions is met:

(1) Unemployment for the previous three-month period in the area exceeds an average of 15 percent.

(2) The number of apprentices in training in the area exceeds a ratio of 1 to 5.

(3) There is a showing that the apprenticeable craft or trade is replacing at least one- thirtieth of its journeymen annually through apprenticeship training, either on a statewide basis or on a local basis.

(1) Assignment of an apprentice to any work performed under a public works contract would create a condition that would jeopardize his or her life or the life, safety, or property of fellow employees or the public at large, or the specific task to which the apprentice is to be assigned is of a nature that training cannot be provided by a journeyman.

L. When an exemption is granted pursuant to subdivision (k) to an organization that represents contractors in a specific trade from the 1-to-5 ratio on a local or statewide basis, the member contractors shall not be required to submit individual applications for approval to local joint apprenticeship committees, if they are already covered by the local apprenticeship standards.

(1) A contractor to whom a contract is awarded, who, in performing any of the work under the contract, employs journeymen or apprentices in any apprenticeable craft or trade shall contribute to the California Apprenticeship Council. The same amount that the director determines is the prevailing amount of apprenticeship training contributions in the area of the public works site. A contractor may take as credit for payments to the council any amounts paid by the contractor to an approved apprenticeship program that can supply apprentices to the site of the public works project. The contractor may add the amount of the contributions in computing his or her bid for the contract.

(2) At the conclusion of the 2002- 03 fiscal year and each fiscal year thereafter, the California Apprenticeship Council shall distribute training contributions received by the

Page 266 of 361 ends

RFB 2026-13
Plunge Mechanical Repairs
42 council under this subdivision, less the expenses of the Division of Apprenticeship Standards for administering this subdivision, by making grants to approved apprenticeship programs for the purpose of training apprentices. The funds shall be distributed as follows:

M. If there is an approved multiemployer apprenticeship program serving the same craft or trade and geographic area for which the training contributions were made to the council, a grant to that program shall be made.

N. If there are two or more approved multiemployer apprenticeship programs serving the same craft or trade and geographic area for which the training contributions were made to the council, the grant shall be divided among those programs based on the number of apprentices registered in each program.

O. All training contributions not distributed under subparagraphs (A) and (B) shall be used to defray the future expenses of the Division of Apprenticeship Standards.

PART 4 LABOR CODE SECTION 1810 - DEFINITION: A LEGAL DAY’S WORK

A. Eight hours labor constitutes a legal day's work in all cases where the same is performed under the authority of any law of this State, or under the direction, or control, or by the authority of any officer of this State acting in his official capacity, or under the direction, or control or by the authority of any municipal corporation, or of any officer thereof. A stipulation to that effect shall be made a part of all contracts to which the State or any municipal corporation therein is a party.

PART 5 LABOR CODE SECTION 1811 - TIME OF SERVICE - CALENDAR WEEK

A. The time of service of any workman employed upon public work is limited and restricted to 8 hours during any one calendar day, and 40 hours during any one calendar week, except as hereinafter provided for under Section 1815.

4. Adopt Ordinance 26-02 to levy special taxes for CFD 2026-3

BACKGROUND:

The project Lunaria Subdivision Development (the “Project”) is a planned residential development within the City of Hanford (the “City”) that includes 457 single-family residential lots, internal roads, a drainage retention basin, and a 5.82-acre park. The areas proposed for inclusion in CFD 2026-3 currently are Phase 1A and Phase 1B of the Project shown in the attached Exhibit A, owned by D.R.

Horton, and is generally located east of 10½ Avenue between Hanford-Armona Road and Houston Avenue.

Phase 1A and Phase 1B include the development of 107 single-family residential parcels. The boundary of the CFD includes the area within the assessor’s parcel numbers as depicted on Exhibit A of the attached Resolution No. 2026-10-R, (Resolution of Formation). Phase 2 through Phase 6 will be annexed to the CFD as the phases are developed.

On January 20, 2026, the City Council adopted a Resolution of Intention to form a Mello-Roos

Page 310 of 361 ends

community facilities district, CFD 2026-3 (Public Maintenance Services), to finance the impact by new development on landscaping and lighting maintenance, park maintenance, drainage maintenance and street maintenance.

The City Council set March 3, 2026, as the date of the public hearing to receive public testimony and property owner protests, if any, with regard to the formation of the CFD and the levy of a special tax.

After receiving public testimony, the City Council will consider (1) adopting a Resolution of Formation (Resolution 2026-10-R) forming and establishing CFD 2026-3, (2) adopting a Resolution calling a special tax election (Resolution 2026-11-R), (3) adopting a Resolution declaring the results of a special landowner election (Resolution 2026-12-R), and (4) based on the results of the election, introducing an Ordinance authorizing the levy of a special tax within the boundaries of CFD 2026-3 (Ordinance 26-02), all attached hereto.

The City has received consent and waiver forms from the property owners within the proposed CFD waiving the time limits for conducting the election and waiving the analysis and arguments regarding the ballot measure. The City’s consultant, Willdan Financial Services, has determined that fewer than twelve registered voters reside within the CFD boundaries; therefore, only a property owner election is required. The property owners have received a special election ballot for the CFD, which allows them one vote per acre and/or portion thereof. The City Clerk has canvassed the ballots that were returned to the City Clerk, which will be opened and read at the City Council meeting.

A CFD Report prepared by Willdan Financial Services is included as required by the Mello-Roos Community Facilities Act of 1982. This report provides a brief description of the public maintenance services which will be required to adequately meet the needs of the CFD and estimates of costs of providing those public maintenance services. In addition, the report includes a map showing the boundaries of the proposed CFD.

FISCAL IMPACT:

The estimated annual revenue received by the City for CFD 2026-3 will be $409,472 which is based on the maximum special tax rates for Fiscal Year 2026/27 for an estimated 457 single family residential parcels. The annual revenue amount is expected to increase as development of additional property occurs within CFD 2026-3 due to annexations. The special tax for CFD 2026-3 includes an annual CPI adjustment. The process for the formation is funded by the developer, and no General Fund monies are used for this effort.

RESOLUTION OF FORMATION OF THE CITY COUNCIL OF THE CITY OF

HANFORD TO ESTABLISH CITY OF HANFORD COMMUNITY FACILITIES DISTRICT NO. 2026-3 (PUBLIC MAINTENANCE SERVICES), TO ESTABLISH AN

APPROPRIATIONS LIMIT THEREFOR, TO AUTHORIZE THE LEVY OF A SPECIAL

TAX THEREIN, AND TO SUBMIT THE ESTABLISHMENT OF AN APPROPRIATIONS

LIMIT AND THE LEVY OF SPECIAL TAXES TO THE QUALIFIED ELECTORS

THEREOF

WHEREAS, on January 20, 2026, the City Council adopted a resolution entitled “A Resolution of the City Council of the City of Hanford Declaring Its Intention to Establish City of Hanford Community Facilities District No. 2026-3 (Public Maintenance Services) and to authorize the levy of a special tax therein to finance certain maintenance services” (the “Resolution of Intention”), stating its intention to form Community Facilities District No. 2026-3 (Public Maintenance Services) (the “CFD”), of the City pursuant to Chapter 2.5 of Part 1 of Division 2 of Title 5, commencing with Section 53311, of the California Government Code (the “Act”) to finance certain services to serve the CFD (the “Services”);

WHEREAS, the Resolution of Intention, setting forth a description of the proposed boundaries of the CFD, Services to be financed by the CFD, including incidental expenses, and the rate and method of apportionment (the “Rate and Method”) of the special tax (the “Special Tax”) to be levied within the CFD to pay for the Services, is on file with the City Clerk and the provisions thereof are incorporated herein by this reference as if fully set forth herein;

WHEREAS, the Resolution of Intention set March 3, 2026, or as soon thereafter as practical, as the date for a public hearing on the establishment of the CFD, the extent of the CFD, the furnishing of the Services within the CFD, and the proposed Rate and Method;

WHEREAS, a notice of the public hearing to be held on March 3, 2026 was published in accordance with the Act;

WHEREAS, on this date, this Council held a noticed public hearing as required by the Act and the Resolution of Intention relative to the proposed formation of the CFD;

WHEREAS, at the hearing all interested persons desiring to be heard for or against the establishment of the CFD, the extent of the CFD, the furnishing of the Services and the Rate and Method were heard and a full and fair hearing was held;

WHEREAS, at the hearing evidence was presented to this Council on such matters before it, including a special report (the “CFD Report”) as to the Services to be provided through the CFD and the costs thereof, a copy of which is on file with the City Clerk, and this Council, at the conclusion of said hearing, is fully advised in the premises;

WHEREAS, written protests with respect to the formation of the CFD, the furnishing of specified types of services and the Rate and Method have not been filed with the City Clerk by

Page 319 of 361 ends

fifty percent (50%) or more of the registered voters residing within the territory of the CFD or property owners of one-half (1/2) or more of the area of land within the CFD and not exempt from the proposed special taxes; and

WHEREAS, the Special Tax proposed to be levied in the CFD to pay for the proposed services has not been eliminated by protest by fifty percent (50%) or more of the registered voters residing within the territory of the CFD or the owners of one-half (1/2) or more of the area of land within the CFD and not exempt from the special taxes.

WHEREAS, City Staff reviewed the proposed CFD formation and determined that forming the CFD and financing the Services, as described in Section 7 of this Resolution, does not constitute a project for purposes of the California Environmental Quality Act, commencing with Section 21000 of the California Public Resources Code and the California Environmental Quality Act Guidelines, Article 5 of Chapter 3 of Division 6 of Title 14 of the California Code of Regulations, (collectively “CEQA”). CEQA Guidelines Section 15378 specifically state that the term “project” for CEQA purposes does not include “continuing administrative or maintenance activities” or “[t]he creation of government funding mechanisms or other government fiscal activities which do not involve any commitment to any specific project which may result in a potentially significant physical impact on the environment.” (CEQA Guidelines §§ 15378 (b)(2) and (b)(4).)

WHEREAS, the CFD is intended to fund landscaping and lighting maintenance, park maintenance, drainage maintenance and street maintenance attributable to new growth within the City.

WHEREAS, in addition to the foregoing, because the project is a financing mechanism to fund ongoing administrative and maintenance operations, it can be seen with certainty that there is no possibility that the activity in question may have a significant effect on the environment, and therefore is exempt from CEQA’s provisions. (CEQA Guidelines §15061(b)(3).)

NOW, THEREFORE, BE IT RESOLVED by the City Council of the City of Hanford as follows:

Section 1. Recitals Correct. The foregoing recitals are true and correct.
