MEETING DATE: 9/15/2026 AGENDA SECTION: STUDY SESSION AND
ACTION ITEMS
SUBJECT:
Receive a presentation from the Mid-Kings River Groundwater Sustainability Agency and consider a motion supporting the proposed land-based assessment and groundwater extraction fee to retain local control.
RECOMMENDATION:
Recommendation: Receive a presentation from the Mid-Kings River Groundwater Sustainability Agency and approve a motion supporting the proposed land-based assessment and groundwater extraction fee to retain local control.
Recommended Motion: I move to support the Mid-Kings River Groundwater Sustainability Agency's proposed land-based assessment and groundwater extraction fee to retain local control.
BACKGROUND:
The Mid-Kings River Groundwater Sustainability Agency is proposing a two-part funding package to support implementation of the Sustainable Groundwater Management Act and the agency’s Groundwater Sustainability Plan. The package consists of:
• A land-based assessment of up to $26.84 per acre, subject to approval through a Proposition 218 landowner election; and
• A groundwater extraction fee ranging from $7.41 to $19.24 per acre-foot between 2027 and 2031, subject to consideration by the GSA Board under Proposition 26.
The proposed revenues would support groundwater planning, monitoring, reporting, program administration, and mitigation activities. The funding would also assist the GSA in responding to the State’s probationary designation of the Tulare Lake Subbasin and maintaining local control over groundwater-management decisions. Many residents would pay less than $4 annually, according to the GSA.
If the proposed funding package is not approved, the GSA would continue to lack a stable funding source needed to fully implement its Groundwater Sustainability Plan. The absence of sufficient local funding and progress could result in continued or increased State oversight and, ultimately, development of a State-managed groundwater plan. Under a State-managed plan, decisions such as groundwater pumping limits would be made by the State, reducing local flexibility and potentially resulting in additional requirements and costs over which local agencies and landowners would have
limited control.
In consideration of potential fees, there are two options for property owners and groundwater users in the GSA to consider for the future:
- Adopt a fee and retain local control of the revenues
OR
- Do not adopt a fee, and risk having a State-managed plan and fee imposed in which local control would be limited
Table 1: Comparison of options
GSA representatives will provide an overview of the proposed rates, public process, and anticipated use of the revenues. Staff recommends that the City Council support the proposed funding package.
The GSA Board is scheduled to conduct a public hearing on September 29, 2026.
FISCAL IMPACT:
There is no direct fiscal impact associated with receiving the presentation or expressing support for the proposed rates. If approved, assessable properties within the GSA, would be subject to the land- based assessment and, where applicable, the groundwater extraction fee. The exact annual cost to individual property owners and the City would depend on assessable acreage and, where applicable, the volume of groundwater pumped.

many households and helps sustain the agricultural
economy that supports local jobs and businesses
throughout the region.
Funding Local Groundwater
Management
The Mid-Kings River GSA is proposing a two-part
funding package to meet SGMA requirements and
regain local control over groundwater management.
Who Is Affected?
The funding package includes two separate
components: a land-based assessment and a
groundwater pumping fee.
Land-based assessment: Applies to assessable
acres within the Mid-Kings River GSA. Most property
owners are included in the proposed assessment,
with the exception of parks, schools, and cemeteries.
Groundwater pumping fee: This fee applies to
groundwater pumpers extracting more than 2 acre-
feet annually. If you are a rural resident pumping
less than 2 acre-feet for household use, you are
excluded from this fee. Public water systems will pay
the extraction fee for the groundwater used to serve
their businesses and residents.
The Mid-Kings River GSA serves:
Hanford
Armona
Home Garden
Hardwick
Surrounding rural and agricultural lands
MANY RESIDENTIAL PARCELS WOULD PAY
LESS THAN $4 ANNUALLY TO SUPPORT
LOCAL GROUNDWATER MANAGEMENT.
Calculations are based on the proposed maximum
assessment of $26.84.

Frequently Asked Questions
1. Why is this funding package needed?
The Sustainable Groundwater Management Act (SGMA)
requires local agencies to achieve groundwater
sustainability by 2040. While SGMA established this
responsibility, it is an unfunded mandate that requires agencies to fund its implementation. A reliable funding source is needed to support the planning, monitoring,
reporting, and groundwater management activities
necessary to achieve sustainability.
The GSA is currently reliant on financial assistance
from primarily Kings County for its operations, which
is not a sustainable long-term solution. Without stable funding, the GSA cannot fully implement its Groundwater Sustainability Plan or effectively plan for the future.
This need has become more immediate because the
Tulare Lake Subbasin is on State probation, resulting in increased State oversight and additional fees. To move
beyond probation, the State must see that the basin has the funding to implement SGMA. Establishing a reliable
funding source is a critical step toward reducing further State oversight.
2. What am I being asked to do?
As a property owner, you are being asked to participate in the decision-making process. You can vote on the
proposed land-based assessment via ballot mailed
to property owners, and are invited to provide public
comment on the groundwater pumping fee.
3. Why does this funding package apply to
residential properties?
Groundwater is a shared resource that supports homes,
businesses and agriculture throughout the region.
Residential households rely on groundwater every
day. The Mid-Kings River GSA was formed to comply
with SGMA, which requires local agencies to manage
groundwater sustainably for the long-term benefit
of all groundwater users. The proposed assessment
revenue would help fund groundwater monitoring,
planning, reporting, and other efforts needed to ensure groundwater is available long into the future.
Both the proposed assessment and pumping fee are
proportional to the benefit or service received. The
assessment is charged on a per-acre basis, so smaller
residential parcels would generally pay less than larger agricultural properties.
4. What authority does the GSA have to
propose this funding package?
SGMA authorizes local agencies like the Mid-Kings
River GSA to establish assessments and fees to
fund groundwater sustainability activities. The GSA
is committed to public transparency throughout the
process of adopting new assessments and fees.
5. How do I participate in the funding
package decision-making process?
Land-based assessment (Proposition 218): Property
owners can participate by voting on the assessment using the ballot mailed in August. Ballots must be returned prior to the close of the Public Hearing scheduled for September 29th at 1:00 p.m.
Pumping fee (Proposition 26): Landowners may submit
a public comment by mail, in person, or online. Visit
midkingsrivergsa.org/localfunding or review the instructions provided in the mailed Public Notice.
6. What happens if the proposed funding
package is not approved?
If the proposed funding package fails, the GSA will lack the funding required to continue managing groundwater
on local stakeholders’ behalf. SGMA was designed to
keep groundwater management in local hands, but the
State steps in if local agencies do not demonstrate
sufficient progress. The Tulare Lake Subbasin is currently on State probation, meaning the State has already
increased its oversight over our groundwater. Without
a stable funding source, the risk of continued State
involvement in groundwater management increases.
7. How was the budget developed?
Budget priorities, expenditures, and programs are
discussed openly and are subject to public review.
The 5-year annual budget included in the Engineer’s
Report and Cost-of-Service Study as part of this funding proposal were developed in close consultation with the
Stakeholder Advisory Committee, who have gathered
around the table for over a year to discuss SGMA’s
urgent priorities and build forward momentum for local
implementation.
8. Why does the proposed assessment
indicate a “maximum” rate?
If approved, the assessment establishes a maximum
annual rate the Mid-Kings River GSA Board may adopt.
Each year, the Board will review the agency’s budget
and set the rates based on funding needs, not to exceed the proposed $26.84 per acre maximum. The Board may
adopt lower rates, but it cannot exceed the approved
maximum rates without going back to the landowners
for approval through a Proposition 218 election.
9. I am a homeowner in a community or
city. How does this apply to me?
If you own property within the Mid-Kings River GSA,
the proposed land-based assessment applies to
your property. If approved, property owners would be
responsible for paying the assessment. For homes
served by a community or municipal water system, the
groundwater used will be subject to the groundwater
pumping fee.

2014: SGMA BECOMES CALIFORNIA LAW
SGMA was designed to give local communities like
ours the opportunity to design their own path to
sustainability. But SGMA is an unfunded mandate
and requires local investments in groundwater
management.
2024: Basin Put On Probation
The State serves as the regulatory backstop and
intervenes if local agencies fail to meet SGMA’s
requirements. The State voted to put the Tulare
Lake Subbasin on probation after our Groundwater
Sustainability Plan did not provide sufficient evidence that the basin would achieve sustainability by the
2040 deadline.
How Did We Get Here?
Sustainable Groundwater Management Act
2026: At Risk
If probation continues, the State will take further
action and advance its own groundwater plan.
Under a full State-managed plan, local flexibility
would be greatly reduced. Decisions like how much
groundwater landowners can pump would be made by
State regulators with no tailoring to local conditions.

SUBJECT:
Flock Safety Overview
RECOMMENDATION:
Recommendation: Receive and discuss a presentation from staff regarding an overview of the Flock Safety public safety technology platform, including its Automated License Plate Reader (ALPR) system, camera network capabilities, privacy safeguards, authorized uses, and benefits to our law enforcement operations as well as public safety.
Recommended Motion: This is an informational item and no action is required.
BACKGROUND:
The Hanford Police Department implemented the Flock Safety Automated License Plate Reader (ALPR) camera system in early 2023, after approval by Council in February of 2022. Flock was implemented as a tool to enhance public safety and support criminal investigations. Since its implementation, the system has proven to be a valuable investigative resource by assisting officers in locating stolen vehicles, identifying suspect vehicles associated with criminal activity, and generating investigative leads in cases involving violent crimes, property crimes, and missing persons.
While the program has been successful in supporting law enforcement operations, some community members have expressed concerns regarding privacy and the use of ALPR technology. In response to those concerns and at the request of City Council, staff is providing this presentation as an overview of the Flock Safety system, explaining how the technology is used, discussing the policies and safeguards governing its operation, and answering questions from the City Council and the public.
The Hanford Police Department utilizes the system solely for legitimate law enforcement purposes and in accordance with applicable federal and state laws, department policy, and established privacy and data security standards. Access to the system is restricted to authorized personnel, all searches are subject to audit, and data is retained only for the period authorized by law and department policy.
The purpose of this study session is to provide transparency regarding the use of the ALPR system, review its operational benefits and privacy protections, and allow for an discussion regarding the Department's use of the technology.
FISCAL IMPACT:
There is no additional fiscal impact associated with this agenda item. This is an informational study session only, and no action is being requested of the City Council.

OFFICE OF THE DISTRICT ATTORNEY
SARAH M. HACKER
1400 West Lacey Boulevard Hanford, California 93230 | 559.582.0326
August 27, 2026
To the Hanford City Council,
As the Kings County District Attorney, I am writing to express support for the City of Hanford’s continued use of Flock Safety Automated License Plate Readers or FLOCK system . This technology is indispensable to modern criminal investigation. Discontinuing the FLOCK system would strip law enforcement of a vital tool, thus compromising public safety.
The practical value of this system is demonstrated daily across the full spectrum of criminal justice operations. In routine property crimes, real -time automated alerts enable officers to locate stolen vehicles, return property to victims, and prevent thos e cars from being utilized in secondary offenses.
In violent incidents such as drive- by shootings, where eyewitness accounts are often limited and suspects are difficult to identify, F LOCK data provides the critical leads necessary to solve cases .
Furthermore, our office relies on this technology in nearly every homicide investigation to establish precise timelines, track suspect vehicles, and corroborate evidence for trial. In the most urgent emergencies—including child abductions and kidnapping cases—these cameras provide an immediate grid that allows law enforcement to track fleeing vehicles and save lives when seconds matter most.
While our office respects community concerns regarding civil liberties, the perception that F LOCK cameras unreasonably intrude into personal privacy is simply untrue. These cameras capture objective vehicle data in public spaces where citizens already interact with commercial security systems, residential doorbell cameras, and dashcams every single day. F LOCK does not utilize facial recognition, track personal identities, or peer into private lives; it merely documents vehicles traveling on public roadways to aid legitimate law enforcement investigations under strict access protocols.
Removing this system would remove an essential shield protecting Hanford’s residents. I urge the City Council to maintain the Flock camera program, and thus ensure our officers and prosecutors retain the resources needed to keep our community safe.
Sincerely,
Sarah M. Hacker
Kings County District Attorney

As organizations representing state and local law enforcement across the country, we recognize and take seriously the concerns being raised about ALPR technology.
We are listening. We want to work with policymakers and the communities we serve to address these concerns and ensure this technology continues to be used responsibly. At the same time, we believe it is important that this conversation fully consider how ALPR technology is being used every day in communities across the country - to locate missing children, find victims, solve serious crimes, and keep our communities safe.
ALPRs help save lives.
When a child is missing, a trafficking victim is being moved across jurisdictions, or a violent offender is on the road, every minute matters. ALPR technology gives investigators a critical lead in seconds - helping law enforcement find someone in danger, identify a dangerous suspect, or connect a vehicle to a serious crime before that opportunity is lost.
That happens every day across the country. Law enforcement agencies responsibly use ALPRs to locate missing and endangered children, find trafficking and kidnapping victims, identify vehicles connected to homicides, shootings, and other violent crimes, locate dangerous suspects
and fugitives, and recover stolen vehicles. ALPRs also help investigators connect criminal activity across jurisdictions and provide critical leads in complex investigations involving drug trafficking, organized crime, and transnational criminal organizations.
For agencies large and small, in many cases ALPR technology helps dramatically reduce the time it takes to identify a vehicle connected to a crime or other public safety incident that can not be accomplished with any other investigative resource. ALPRs do not photograph or identify people; they only photograph (not video) cars and license plates on roadways. ALPR does not replace an investigator. It does not establish guilt. It must be verified before enforcement action is taken. But it provides an investigative lead - often at the moment that lead matters most.
We welcome meaningful safeguards and accountability.
State and local law enforcement agencies responsibly use ALPR technology under policies, controls, and oversight designed to ensure it is used for legitimate law enforcement purposes and to protect against misuse. In most places, access is restricted to authorized personnel through individual user credentials and other access controls, while audit logs create a record of queries and allow agencies to identify and investigate potential misuse. Policies also establish requirements for data retention and sharing, security, training, and supervisory oversight.
Responsible data sharing is critical to the effectiveness of ALPR technology. Missing and endangered persons, trafficking victims, dangerous offenders, and criminal activity do not stop at jurisdictional boundaries. The ability of law enforcement agencies to appropriately share and query ALPR information across jurisdictions can help investigators connect cases, locate people in danger, and identify suspects who have moved from one community or state to another. That capability can be particularly important in time-sensitive investigations, and it should be governed by clear policies, appropriate access controls, auditing, and accountability.
These safeguards are fundamental to the responsible use of ALPR technology. They protect against misuse and help ensure this important tool is used for legitimate public safety purposes.
And when someone abuses that access, there should be consequences. Misuse of ALPR technology - like misuse of any law enforcement investigative tool - should not be tolerated.
As technology evolves, law enforcement is committed to evaluating and strengthening the safeguards that govern the use of ALPR technology. We stand ready to work with policymakers at the federal, state, and local levels to hear concerns, examine where additional protections may be appropriate, and develop a path forward that reinforces accountability while preserving legitimate public safety use of ALPR.
We can protect against abuse while ensuring law enforcement continues to have access to a tool that helps find missing children and trafficking victims, locate violent offenders, solve serious crimes, and save lives.

The proposed ordinance was presented to the City of Hanford Planning Commission on August 11, 2026. The item was recommended for approval to the City Council by the Planning Commission on a 5, 0 vote by adoption of Resolution No. 2026-14.
In taking action on a Zone Text Amendment, the City Council must make the appropriate findings in accordance with the Hanford Municipal Code:
A zone text amendment may be approved if all of the following findings shall be made by the reviewing authority:
1. That the amendment is internally consistent with the goals, objectives, and policies of the General Plan and Zoning Ordinance;
ANALYSIS: That according to General Plan Policy T95, the City of Hanford shall promote and encourage the installation and use of electric vehicle (EV) charging stations and remove obstacles to their use as well as minimizing costs of permitting. The adoption of Section 15.57 of the Hanford Municipal Code is consistent with the policies of the General Plan, as it promotes and encourages the installation of EV charging stations and streamlines the permitting process.
2. That the amendment would not be detrimental to the public health, safety, or welfare of the community;
ANALYSIS: That the adoption of Section 15.57 of the Hanford Municipal Code is not detrimental to the public health, safety, or welfare of the community. Specifically, Section 15.57 identifies the intent of the ordinance to encourage the installation of electric vehicle charging stations by removing obstacles to permitting for charging stations, so long as the action does not supersede the Building Official’s authority to address higher priority life-safety situations. If the Building Official makes a finding based on substantial evidence that the electric vehicle charging station could have a specific adverse impact upon the public health or safety, as defined in Government Code 65850.7, the City may require the applicant to apply for a use permit. The language ensures the amendment would not be detrimental to the public health, safety, or welfare of the community.
3. That the amendment would maintain the appropriate balance of land uses within the City; and
ANALYSIS: That the amendment will not affect the balance of land uses within the City of Hanford.
The zone text amendment pertains to EV permitting processes, only.
4. That the anticipated land uses on the subject site would be compatible with existing and future surrounding uses.
ANALYSIS: That the zone text amendment applies to EV permitting processes in all zone districts.
EV charging stations are allowed in all zone districts, in accordance with AB1236 and 970. The adoption of the ordinance ensures that the use will not create a significant adverse impact on public health and safety. Public health and safety impacts, as defined in Government Code 65850.7,will be considered when addressing land use compatibility.

STAFF REPORT
MEETING DATE: 9/15/2026 AGENDA SECTION: CONSENT CALENDAR
SUBJECT:
Adopt Resolution 26-64-R, causing the incomplete sewer improvements that are obligation of Enclave 66, LLC (Developer) for Tract 915-Unit I and Tract 915-Unit II, to be completed by allowing the City Manager and his designees to undertake all necessary and appropriate action to complete the sewer improvements.
RECOMMENDATION:
Recommendation:
That the City Council adopt Resolution 26-64-R, causing the incomplete sewer improvements that are obligation of Enclave 66, LLC (Developer) for Tract 915-Unit I and Tract 915-Unit II, to be completed by allowing the City Manager and his designees to undertake all necessary and appropriate action to complete the sewer improvements.
Recommended Motion:
I move to adopt Resolution 26-64-R, causing the incomplete sewer improvements that are obligation of Enclave 66, LLC for Tract 915-Unit I and Tract 915-Unit II, to be completed by allowing the City Manager and his designees to undertake all necessary and appropriate action to complete the sewer improvements.
BACKGROUND:
Enclave 66 LLC. (Developer), failed to meet the requirements of Section §16.24.110 of the Hanford Municipal Code, which stipulates that the subdivision improvements must be completed within twenty- four (24) months after the July 21, 2023 recording of the final map, unless an extension is granted by Council. The Developer failed to complete the improvements for Tract 915-1 and 915-2 within the stipulated timeframe and did not request an extension within the required minimum thirty (30) days prior to the expiration of the Subdivision Improvement Agreements (Agreements). The Agreements have expired.
Multiple attempts were made by City staff to work with the Developer to rectify the issue and extend the Agreement terms to allow the Developer to complete the outstanding improvements; however, the Developer neglected to perform, and the tracts remain incomplete. Therefore, the Developer is in breach of the Agreements, leaving both phases of development with a substantial number of outstanding improvements.
In the interest of avoiding delay of other developments in the area that are reliant on the sanitary sewer lift station and conveyance piping (sewer improvements) conditioned to be completed with Tract 915-1, ordering the uncompleted sewer improvements to be completed will allow city staff to
seek construction by other developments and potentially collect from the Developer’s performance bonds to cover the Developer's fair-share costs. This action is consistent with Hanford Municipal Code § 16.24.110 Completion of improvements A: Subdivisions of Five or More Parcels. The subdivision improvements shall be completed by the subdivider within 24 months, or such time as approved by the city engineer, not to exceed a period of 36 months, after the recording of the final map, unless an extension is granted by the council. The improvements shall be completed prior to the final building inspection or occupancy of any unit within the subdivision. "Should the subdivider fail to complete the improvements within the specified time, the city, by resolution of the council and at its option, may cause any or all uncompleted improvements to be completed, and the parties executing the improvement security shall be firmly bound for the payment of all necessary costs."
This action will not relieve the Developer of any other required outstanding improvements including, but not limited to, collector street paving, frontage landscaping, and storm basin outfall structure installation, nor allow occupancy of any existing residential structures until a Notice of Completion is filed. The location of the Tract 915-1 and 915-2 subdivisions are provided on the attached aerial maps.
On June 26, 2018, the Planning Commission adopted Resolution 2018-16 to allow Vesting Tentative Tract 915, a request by the Developer to subdivide a 14.29-acre parcel into 66 residential lots in the R-L-5 Low-Density Residential zone district, with a planned unit development overlay.
By adoption of Resolution 2020-06 on June 9, 2020, the Planning Commission granted a 24-month extension of Tentative Tract 915 and Planned Unit Development No. 2018-01 (Amendment #1). The extension set a new expiration date of June 26, 2022 for Tentative Tract 915.
A Tentative Subdivision Agreement was executed between the Developer and City on June 6, 2022, allowing the Developer to install improvements within the boundary of the developments prior to recording a final map or providing security bonds.
On July 18, 2023, final Subdivision Improvement Agreements for Tract 915-1 and Tract 915-2 were executed. The final maps for both Tract 915-1 and Tract 915-2 subdivisions are attached for reference, consisting of a 26-lot subdivision and a 40-lot subdivision respectively, and recorded with Kings County Recorder’s Office on July 21, 2023. Due to a portion of the improvements being completed under the Tentative Subdivision Improvement Agreement, the Developer provided reduced bonds for the final Subdivision Improvement Agreements reflecting the cost for remaining improvements to be installed.
The Developer has completed the majority of the residential home construction for Tract 915-1 but has failed to provide, among other required improvements, the sanitary sewer lift station and conveyance piping (sewer improvements) within the abutting arterial and collector streets to provide sewer service to the development, resulting in the City of Hanford’s Building Department being unable to issue certificates of occupancy.
Currently, there are no residential homes constructed for Tract 915-2. The Developer has only installed underground utilities and a portion of required right-of-way improvements.
On June 12, 2026, the City, in a good faith effort, provided an unsolicited offer to extend the expired Subdivision Improvement Agreements (SIA) for both Tract 915-1 and Tract 915-2 as described in Section §16.24.110 of the Hanford Municipal Code, with amendments to the SIA’s (Amendments) that included a path forward to allow for completion of the developments.
On July 8, 2026, City staff held an in-person meeting at the Developer’s request to discuss the
contents of the Amendments associated with the extension. City staff left this meeting with the understanding that both parties could move forward with mutually agreed-upon modifications to the Amendments. Modifications to the Amendments were made accordingly and mailed via Certified Mail to the Developer for signature on July 21, 2026. Attempts for certified delivery by the United States Postal Service (USPS) were unsuccessful and, ultimately, the documents were returned to City staff after the Developer failed to pick up the parcel at the USPS facility.
On August 3, 2026, a voicemail was received from the Developer with what City staff determined to be unsubstantiated concerns and responded accordingly via email on August 3, 2026. A response from the Developer was subsequently received on August 5, 2026, stating a response to the Agreements would be provided later in the day, however a response was never received.
On August 17, 2026, City staff provided a letter to the Developer by Certified Mail notifying it of the breach of the Subdivision Improvement Agreements for Tract 915-1 and Tract 915-2. After receiving no response from the Developer or a receipt of delivery from USPS and in an effort to keep the Developer informed, City staff emailed the Developer a copy of the letter on August 26, 2026. Again, City staff did not receive a response. The letter is attached for Council's reference.
In addition to the continued efforts to amend and extend the Developer's Agreements, City staff spent additional time and resources determining an alternate route for the sewer system as the initial design required an off-site easement over and across an adjacent parcel not owned by the Developer. This was an attempt to relieve the Developer of the easement acquisition process by providing a less impactful and fast-tracked improvement design for the sewer improvements to be completed on time.
It is imperative that the sewer improvements be completed as other developments in the area are dependent upon these improvements. The alternate sewer improvement plans were accepted for construction by the City on August 20, 2026.
ENVIRONMENTAL REVIEW:
Initial Study, Mitigated Negative Declaration No. 2018-06, and all notices related thereto were prepared in compliance with the California Environmental Quality Act (CEQA) and the City of Hanford Municipal Code Policies.
PRIOR COUNCIL ACTION:
City Council approved the Final Maps for Tract 915-1 and Tract 915-2 on July 18, 2023.
PRIOR PLANNING COMMISSION ACTION:
Planning Commission approved Vesting Tentative Tract 915 on June 26, 2018.
Planning Commission approved Resolution No. 2019-20, regarding Amendment #1 to Planned Unit Development No. 2018-01 on September 10, 2019.
FISCAL IMPACT:
The City will retain the right to submit a claim under the Developer’s performance bond and/or pursue any other remedy available under law for potential reimbursement costs incurred for completion of the sewer improvements installed by others.

Re: Breach of Subdivision Improvement Agreements- Tract 915-1 and Tract 915-2
Mr. Bailey,
On June 12, 2026, the City of Hanford (City), in a good faith effort provided an unsolicited offer to extend the already expired Subdivision Improvement Agreements (SIA) for both Tract 915-1 and Tract 915-2 as described in Section §16.24.110 of the Hanford Municipal Code, with amendments to the SIA’s (Amendments) that included a path forward to allow for compleƟon of the developments.
On July 8, 2026, City staff held an in-person meeƟng with you at your request to discuss the contents of the Amendments associated with the extension. City staff leŌ this meeƟng with the understanding that both parƟes could move forward with mutually agreed upon modificaƟons to the Amendments.
On July 21, 2026, the City modified the Amendments that were conforming with your requests made at the July 8, 2026 meeƟng, and sent an email copy to you for your review. In that email you were also noƟfied that a hard copy was being mailed to you for your signature and that the signed Amendments were to be submiƩed to the City no later than August 4, 2026, so that the City could maintain an August 18, 2026 City Council meeƟng for the approval of the Amendments. An aƩempt on July 27, 2026, by the United States Postal Service (USPS) to deliver the documents via CerƟfied Mail was unsuccessful as nobody was available to receive the delivery. The USPS has since been holding the documents for your in-person pickup and receipt at their facility.
During the Ɵme following our in-person meeƟng, and with your knowledge, the City, in a good faith effort, has been spending addiƟonal Ɵme reviewing sanitary sewer force main improvement plans for your development.
The plans are being produced by an engineering firm with interest in developing an adjacent subdivision; which is also reliant on the sanitary sewer improvements aƩributed to your development improvement plans. The adjacent development cannot proceed due to the incomplete improvements of Tract 915-1.
On August 3, 2026, City staff received a phone call from you with concerns regarding the sanitary sewer force main plans. City staff found that your concerns were unsubstanƟated and staff responded accordingly via email on August 3, 2026. Again, staff requested you sign and return the Amendments to the City by the August 4, 2026, deadline so staff can move forward with the August 18, 2026 City Council date for approval.
As of the date of this leƩer, beyond the August 4th deadline, the City has not received the signed Amendments.
Therefore, the City deems your company in breach of the Subdivision Improvement Agreements (SIAs) for Tract 915-1 and 915-2 and withdraws the Amendments for Tract 915-1 and Tract 915-2 that were previously mailed to you. The agenda item for the August 18, 2026, City Council date has been removed.

Since your company failed to Ɵmely complete the li Ō staƟon and force main, a resolu Ɵon will, in accordance with Hanford Municipal Code SecƟon 16.24.110.A., be considered by the Hanford City Council at its September 15, 2026 meeƟng. The City will cause the uncompleted liŌ staƟon and force main to be constructed should the Council adopt the resolu Ɵon. During the public comment por Ɵon of the Council mee Ɵng, you will have an opportunity to address the Council before it considers and acts upon the proposed resoluƟon.
As a path forward, and as a condiƟon of the issuance of a NoƟce of CompleƟon for Tract 915-1 and for Tract 915- 2, the following requirements must be saƟsfied.
New SIA Amendments will be required for both Tract 915-1 and Tract 915-2, as the construction deadline for the remaining subdivision improvements have lapsed and your company is in breach. The new Amendments will be submitted to you and must be executed and returned by the deadline specified by the City.
Proportionate share of costs associated with the city’s installation of the sanitary sewer lift station and force main will be enforced and due in full at the time of your execution of the new SIA Amendments. Your surety company will need to provide documentation to the City confirming that the existing bonds remain in effect with respect to remaining subdivision improvements, which must be completed under the to-be-amended SIA’s, or that they will issue new bonds. The City will also require you to provide updated insurance documents.
With your company’s failure to complete the required improvements, city staff have determined that creaƟng an avenue for surrounding projects to proceed with their development is a priority. Should the City Council determined that the City will cause the liŌ staƟon and force main to be constructed, the City, will retain the right to submit a claim under your performance bond and/or pursue any other remedy available under law should your company fail to pay its proporƟonate share of construcƟon costs as described above.
The compleƟon of the sanitary sewer improvements by the city will not allow occupancy for Tract 915-1 or Tract 915-2. Occupancy of Tract 915-1 and 915-2 will be withheld u nƟl such Ɵme that new SIA Amendments are executed, your company’s share of costs for the li Ō sta Ɵon and force main are paid in full, all remaining subdivision improvements are completed and accepted by the city, and you have been issued a No Ɵce of CompleƟon.
Sincerely,
Frank Senteno, Director
UƟliƟes and Engineering Division

AGENDA
STAFF REPORT
MEETING DATE: 9/15/2026 AGENDA SECTION: CONSENT CALENDAR
SUBJECT:
Adopt a Resolution authorizing the City Manager or his or her designee to accept property dedications for public purposes.
Recommendation:
Staff recommends that the City Council adopt a Resolution authorizing the City Manager or his or her designee to accept property dedications for public purposes.
Recommended Motion:
I move to adopt a Resolution authorizing the City Manager or his or her designee to accept property dedications for public purposes.
Summary:
From time to time, dedications to the City are necessary as a condition of development or part of a Capital Improvements Project (CIP) and are required for street rights-of-way, easements, or other property interests for public use when necessary for purposes, including, but not limited to, establishing public access rights, accommodating additional travel lanes, and supporting public improvements and utilities. These dedications are sometimes separate and not associated with a parcel or subdivision map process and therefore must be subsequently presented to the City Council as separate instruments for acceptance. The current practice is for the City Council to accept each dedication on a project-by-project basis.
Hanford Municipal Code § 2.08.060. K. allows the City Manager to perform such other duties and exercise such other powers as may be delegated to the City Manager from time to time by ordinance or resolution of the City Council. In addition, Government Code Section 27281 provides that a political corporation or governmental agency may authorize one or more officers or agents to accept and consent to deeds or grants conveying any interest in or easement upon real estate to a political corporation or governmental agency for public purposes. With this authority in mind, staff recommends that the City Council adopt a Resolution authorizing the City Manager, or his or her designee, to accept dedications (both in fee and easements) for public purposes.
Background:
Government Code Section 66447(a) allows required dedications or offers of dedication via separate instrument. The proposed resolution would eliminate the need for staff to seek separate City Council authorization for dedications by providing the City Manager, or his or her designee, the ability to accept dedications for public use upon final determination by City staff, and acceptance by the City Surveyor, that such dedications are ready for approval. This change would reduce staff time spent preparing staff reports and reduce delays in overall project scheduling and deliverables.
The City Council or Planning Commission, as applicable, will retain approval authority for development projects as currently identified in the City’s Municipal Code. Additionally, dedications on any final map or parcel map will continue to be approved by the City Council in accordance with the Subdivision Map Act.
This procedural change is proposed as an effort to streamline the separate instrument dedication acceptance process within the City of Hanford. The primary objectives are to improve operational efficiency, reduce project turnaround times, and optimize the use of staff time and resources.
While this resolution will allow the City Manager to accept dedications, both in fee and as easements, it will not give the City Manager the authority to accept dedications into the City Street System. In order for the City Manager to accept such dedications into the City Street System, an ordinance (proposed at this same Council meeting) will also need to be adopted.
Environmental Review:
This action is not a project within the meaning of the California Environmental Quality Act (CEQA) Guidelines §§ 15378 and 15061(b)(3) as it proposes an organizational structure change that will not result in any direct or indirect physical change in the environment.

SUBJECT:
Approval of the three-year renewal of Microsoft software licensing through Dell Computer Corporation in the amount of $449,522.40, funded by the IT Services Fund (0415), an internal service fund allocated to all operational departments
RECOMMENDATION:
Recommendation: Approve the three-year renewal of Microsoft software licensing through Dell Computer Corporation in the amount of $449,522.40, funded by the IT Services Fund (0415) an internal service fund allocated to all operational departments
Recommended Motion: I move to approve the three-year renewal of Microsoft software licenses through Dell Computer Corporation in the amount of $449,522.40, funded by the IT Services Fund (0415) an internal service fund allocated to all operational departments BACKGROUND:
Each year, the City pays annual fees for Microsoft volume licensing, software assurance, and subscriptions. These licenses support server operating systems, user access, workstation software, and Microsoft 365 productivity applications. The renewal also includes the EMS G5 Government add- on, which provides enhanced identity management, endpoint protection, and cybersecurity capabilities. The proposed renewal will begin a new three-year licensing term.
Microsoft licensing is essential to the City’s technology infrastructure and supports email, productivity applications, user access, server operations, security updates, and technical support across City departments. Failure to renew the licenses could interrupt access to critical systems and applications and may result in the City operating without the required software licensing.
Dell Computer Corporation provides Microsoft licensing at government pricing through a cooperative purchasing agreement based on Riverside County’s contract. The City’s purchasing procedures allow the use of contracts competitively awarded by other public agencies, commonly referred to as “piggybacking.” This process allows the City to reduce procurement time and obtain favorable pricing and contract terms.
The total cost of the three-year renewal is $449,522.40 payable in annual installments of $149,840.80. The new licensing term will run from October 1, 2026, through September 30, 2029.
FISCAL IMPACT:
This is a budgeted expense within the IT Services Fund an internal service fund. Costs are allocated across all departments with licensed hardware, as reflected in the approved Fiscal Year 2026–2027 Budget. No budget adjustment is required as a result of this action.

The Reseller and Enrolled Affiliate determine pricing and payment terms as between them, and Microsoft will invoice the Reseller based on those terms. Throughout this Agreement the term “price” refers to reference price. Resellers and other third parties do not have authority to bind or impose any obligation or liability on Microsoft.
f. Adding Products.
(i) Adding new Products not previously ordered . New Enterprise Products or Enterprise Online Services may be added at any time by contacting a Microsoft Account Manager or Reseller. New Additional Products, other than Online Services, may be used if an order is placed in the month the Product is first used. For Additional Products that are Online Services, an initial order for the Online Service is required prior to use.
EA20261EnrGov(US)SLG(ENG)(Aug2025) Page 4 of 10
Document X20-10637
(ii) Adding Licenses for previously ordered Products. Additional Licenses for previously ordered Products other than Online Service s may be added at any time but must be included in the next true-up order. Additional Licenses for Online Services must be ordered prior to use, unless the Online Services are (1) identified as eligible for true -up in the Product Terms or (2) included as part of other Licenses. g. True-up requirements. Enrolled Affiliate must submit an annual true -up order that accounts for any changes since the initial order or last order. If there are no changes, then an update statement must be submitted instead of a true-up order. (i) Enterprise Products. For Enterprise Products, Enrolled Affiliate must determine the number of Qualified Devices and Qualified Users (if ordering user -based Licenses) at the time the true-up order is placed and must order additional Licenses for all Qualified Devices and Qualified Users that are not already covered by existing Licenses, including any Enterprise Online Services.
(ii) Additional Products. For Additional Products that have been previously ordered under this Enrollment , Enrolled Affilia te must determine the maximum number of Additional Products used since the latter of the initial order, the last true -up order, or the prior anniversary date and submit a true-up order that accounts for any increase. (iii) Online Services. For Online Services i dentified as eligible for true -up in the Product Terms, Enrolled Affiliate may place a reservation order for the additional Licenses prior to use and payment may be deferred until the next true -up order. Microsoft will provide a report of Reserved License s ordered but not yet invoiced to Enrolled Affiliate and its Reseller. Reserved Licenses will be invoiced retrospectively to the month in which they were ordered.
(iv) Subscription License reductions. Enrolled Affiliate may reduce the quantity of Subscription Licenses at the Enrollment anniversary date on a prospective basis if permitted in the Product Terms, as follows:
1) For Subscription Licenses that are part of an Enterprise-wide purchase, Licenses may be reduced as long as (a) the initial order minimum requirements are maintained and (b) the total quantity of Licenses and Software Assurance for an applicable group meets or exceeds the quantity of Qualified Devices and Qualified Users (if ordering user-based Licenses) identified on the Product Sel ection Form, and includes any additional Qualified Devices and Qualified Users added in any prior true -up orders.
Step-up Licenses do not count towards this total count. 2) For Enterprise Online Services in a given Product pool that are not a part of an Enterprise-wide purchase, Licenses can be reduced as long as (a) the initial order minimum requirements are maintained and (b) all then -active users of each Online Service are included the total quantity of Licenses remaining after the reduction. An Enrolled Affiliate may reduce Licenses for Online Services on or before the Enrollment anniversary date and place a reservation order for such licenses within 90 days after the anniversary date; however, any licenses ordered as described in this section will be invo iced to the Enrolled Affiliate for the time period the licenses were made available. Subscription Licenses ordered upfront may not be reduced. 3) For Additional Products available as Subscription Licenses, Enrolled Affiliate may reduce the Licenses. If the L icense count is reduced to zero, then Enrolled Affiliate’s use of the applicable Subscription License will be cancelled.
Invoices will be adjusted to reflect any reductions in Subscription Licenses at the true -up order Enrollment anniversary date and effective as of such date. (v) Update statement. An update statement must be submitted instead of a true -up order if, since the initial order or last true -up order, Enrolled Affiliate’s Enterprise: (1) has not changed the number of Qualified Devices and Quali fied Users licensed with Enterprise Products or Enterprise Online Services; and (2) has not increased its usage of Additional
EA20261EnrGov(US)SLG(ENG)(Aug2025) Page 5 of 10
Document X20-10637
Products. This update statement must be signed by Enrolled Affiliat e’s authorized representative.
(vi) True-up order period. The true -up order or update statement must be received by Microsoft between 60 and 30 days prior to each Enrollment anniversary date. The last true-up order or update statement during an Enrollment term is due within 30 days prior to the Expiration Date, and any license reservations within this 30 -day period will not be accepted. Enrolled Affiliate may submit true-up orders more often to account for increases in Product usage, but an annual true-up order or update statement must still be submitted during the annual order period.
(vii) Late true-up order. If the true -up order or update statement is not received when due , Microsoft may invoice Reseller for all Reserved L icenses not previously invoiced and Subscription License reductions cannot be reported until the following Enrollment anniversary date (or at Enrollment renewal, as applicable). h. Step-up Licenses. For Licenses eligible for a step-up under this Enrollment, Enrolled Affiliate may step-up to a higher edition or suite as follows:
(i) For step-up Licenses included on an initial order, Enrolled Affiliate may order according to the true-up process.
(ii) If step -up Licenses are not included on an initial order, Enrolled Affiliate may step -up initially by following the process described in the Section title d “Adding new Products not previously ordered,” then for additional step -up Licenses, by following the true -up order process.
i. Clerical errors. Microsoft may correct clerical errors in this Enrollment, and any documents submitted with or under this Enrollm ent, by providing notice by email and a reasonable opportunity for Enrolled Affiliate to object to the correction. Clerical errors include minor mistakes, unintentional additions and omissions. This provision does not apply to material terms, such as the identity, quantity or price of a Product ordered. j. Verifying compliance. Microsoft may, in its discretion and at its expense, verify compliance with this Enrollment as set forth in the Enterprise Agreement.
3. Pricing.
a. Price Levels. For both the initial and any renewal term Enrolled Affiliate’s Price Level for all Products ordered under this Enrollment will be Level “D” throughout the term of the Enrollment. b. Setting Prices. Unless otherwise expressly agreed to by the parties and except for Online Services d esignated in the Product Terms as being exempt from fixed pricing, Enrolled Affiliate’s prices for each Product or Service will be established by its Reseller. As long as Enrolled Affiliate continues to qualify for the same price level, Microsoft’s prices for Resellers for each Product or Service ordered will be fixed throughout the applicable initial or renewal Enrollment term. Microsoft’s prices to Resellers are reestablished at the beginning of the renewal term.
4. Payment terms.
For the initial or renewal order, Microsoft will invoice Enrolled Affiliate’s Reseller in three equal annual installments. The first installment will be invoiced upon Microsoft’s acceptance of this Enrollment and remaining installments will be invoiced on each subsequent Enrollment anniversary date. Subsequent orders are invoiced upon acceptance of the order and Enrolled Affiliate may elect to pay annually or upfront for Online Services and upfront for all other Licenses.

b. Renewal option. At the Expir ation Date of the initial term, Enrolled Affiliate may request to renew Products and Services under this Enrollment for one additional 36 -month term.
Microsoft may make changes to this program that will make it necessary for Customer and its Enrolled Affiliates to enter into new agreements or Enrollments in order to renew. In order for a renewal request to be considered, Microsoft must receive a Renewal Form, Product Selection Form, and renewal request prior to or at the Expiration Date. Microsoft will re view a renewal request made under this section in good faith and may accept or reject such request in its sole discretion.
c. If Enrolled Affiliate elects not to renew.
(i) Software Assurance. If Enrolled Affiliate elects not to renew Software Assurance for any Product under its Enrollment, then Enrolled Affiliate will not be permitted to order Software Assurance later without first acquiring a new License with Software Assurance. (ii) Online Services eligible for an Extended Term. For Online Services identified as eligible for an Extended Term in the Product Terms, the following options are available at the end of the Enrollment initial or renewal term.
1) Extended Term. Licenses for Online Services will automatically expire in accordance with the terms of the Enrollment. An extended term option that allows Online Services to continue month -to-month (“Extended Term”) is available. During the Extended Term, Online Services will be invoiced monthly at the then -current published price as of the Expiration Date plus a 3% administrative fee for up to one year . If Enrolled Affiliate wants an Extended Term, Enrolled Affiliate must submit a request to Microsoft at least 30 days prior to the Expiration Date.
2) Cancellation during Extended Term. At any time during the first twelv e months of the Extended Term, Enrolled Affiliate may terminate the Extended Term by submitting a notice of cancellation to Microsoft for each Online Service. Thereafter, Microsoft may condition the continued use of each Online Service on the acceptance of new terms by the Enrolled Affiliate. Enrolled Affiliate will be notified in writing of any new terms at least 60 days before any such changes take effect. Enrolled Affiliate acknowledges and agrees that after the notice described in this section , its cont inued use of each Online Service after the effective date provided in the notice will constitute its acceptance of the new terms. If Enrolled Affiliate does not agree to the new terms, it must stop using the Online Services and terminate the Extended Term as provided in this section. Enrolled Affiliate’s termination under this section will be effective at the end of the month following 30 days after Microsoft has received the notice. (iii) Subscription Licenses and Online Services not eligible for an Extended Ter m. If Enrolled Affiliate elects not to renew, the Licenses will be cancelled and will terminate as of the Expiration Date.

d. Termination for cause. Any termination for cause of this Enrollment will be subject to the “Termination for cause” section of the Agreement. In addition, it shall be a breach of this Enrollment if Enrolled Affiliate or any Affiliate in the Enterprise that uses Government Community Cloud Services fails to meet and maintain the conditions of membership in the definition of Community.
e. Early termination. Any early termination of this Enrollment will be subject to the “Early Termination” Section of the Enterprise Agreement.

STAFF REPORT
MEETING DATE: 9/15/2026 AGENDA SECTION: PUBLIC HEARING
SUBJECT:
Community Development Block Grant (CDBG) Consolidated Annual Performance Report (CAPER) PY25-26
RECOMMENDATION:
Recommendation:
Open the public hearing and accept comments regarding the Program Year 2025 Community Development Block Grant (CDBG) Consolidated Annual Performance and Evaluation Report (CAPER) and adopt Resolution No. 26-55-R authorizing and approving the Program Year 2025 CAPER.
Recommended Motion:
I move to adopt Resolution No. 26-55-R approving the Program Year 2025 Community Development Block Grant Consolidated Annual Performance and Evaluation Report (CAPER) and authorizing its submission to the U.S. Department of Housing and Urban Development.
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 implementing activities funded through the CDBG Program during Program Year (PY) 2025, which spans from July 1, 2025, through June 30, 2026. During this period, the City expended approximately $961,071 in eligible CDBG funds across all open grant years. The report also highlights accomplishments, program outcomes, and progress toward meeting the goals and objectives identified in the City’s Consolidated Plan and Annual Action Plan.
REPORT COMPONENTS:
The CAPER includes the following key components:
1. Narrative Summary
This section details the activities carried out during Program Year 2025, from July 1, 2025, through June 30, 2026. It evaluates the activities’ alignment with the objectives and priorities established in the City’s Annual Action Plan and 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.
3. Financial Summary
This section summarizes the financial performance of the CDBG Program for the City of Hanford for the program year. The CAPER incorporates financial and performance information maintained in HUD’s Integrated Disbursement and Information System (IDIS), along with narrative information prepared by City staff.
Throughout the program year, City staff entered 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 Annual Action Plan. In accordance with HUD regulations and the City’s Citizen Participation Plan, staff facilitated public engagement by publishing a bilingual public notice announcing both the public review and comment period and the public hearing.Draft copies of the proposed CAPER were made available for public review and comment from September 1 through September 16, 2026. The City Council public hearing is scheduled for September 15, 2026. Written comments will continue to be accepted through the close of the public comment period on September 16, 2026.
As of the preparation of this staff report, no public comments have been received. Any comments received through the close of the public comment period will be incorporated into the final CAPER, as applicable.
The final CAPER must be submitted to HUD by September 30, 2026, which is 90 days after the end of the program year on June 30, 2026.
FISCAL IMPACT:
Submitting the CAPER in compliance with HUD requirements helps ensure that the City remains eligible to receive future CDBG entitlement funding. There is no direct fiscal impact associated with the approval and submission of this report.

3 Introduction
The Consolidated Annual Performance and Evaluation Report (CAPER) for the City of Hanford covers the period from July 1, 2025, through June 30, 2026.
The City's Five-Year Consolidated Plan outlines housing, homelessness, community, and economic development needs and resources . This plan creates a Strategic Plan to meet those needs. The Strategic Plan has three parts: a needs assessment, 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 whether the City has met the objectives and goals established in the Five -Year Consolidated Plan and Annual Action Plan. PY 2025–2026 is the second year of the City's five -year Consolidated Plan (Program Years 2024–2028).
4 CR-05 - Goals and Outcomes
Progress has been made in the jurisdiction's strategic plan and action plan. 91.520(a)
This section addresses activities undertaken during the program year to meet pertinent 2024 – 2028 Consolidated Plan and FY 2025/26 Annual Action Plan objectives and high-priority areas.
To meet the City of Hanford’s goals and objectives for FY 2025/26, CDBG funds were primarily administered to the following activities:
• Planning and Administration
• Kings/Tulare Homeless Alliance – Continuum of Care, Point-in-Time Count, and LINC services
• Kings Commission on Aging – Public services
• Fair Housing – Fair housing services and education
• Kings Community Action Organization – Overnight shelter services • City of Hanford Emergency/Minor Home Repair Program – Affordable housing assistance • Kings Community Action Organization Food Bank Service Center – Public facility improvements
• City of Hanford Parks and Community Services – Community Recreation Program – Recreational programs and services for youth and seniors
These activities supported affordable housing, public services, homelessness services, fair housing, public facility improvements, and recreational opportunities for low- and moderate-income Hanford residents.
Programs designed to address the priority needs identified in the City’s 2024 –2028 Consolidated Plan continue to guide the use of CDBG funds. In keeping with this focus, the following Consolidated Plan goals were addressed during the program year:
• Goal 1 – Housing: Increase and preserve affordable housing opportunities, including housing rehabilitation and home improvement assistance.
• Goal 2 – Program Administration: Support the administration and oversight of the City’s CDBG program and community development activities.
• Goal 3 – Public Services: Support public service activities benefiting low - and moderate - income residents, including homeless services, senior services, youth services, and other community services.
• Goal 4 – Community Development/Enhancement: Support neighborhood preservation, public facilities, infrastructure, and other community development improvements.
The accomplishments reported for the program year represent the City of Hanford’s progress toward meeting the goals established in its 2024 –2028 Consolidated Plan and FY 2025/26 Annual Action Plan. The applicable CAPER tables and IDIS report further detail actual accomplishments and program outcomes.
5 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.
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 on progress toward the overall five-year Consolidated Plan goals and priorities (July 1, 2024 –June 30, 2028). It identifies areas for improvement resulting from annual self - evaluations 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 implement programs to improve the supply of lower-income housing further. Below are the programmed activities for PY 2025, along with the accomplishments associated with each activity.
During the second year of the five -year Consolidated Plan, the City of Hanford continued its commitment to providing housing opportunities for low - and moderate -income households while preserving the existing housing stock.

8 ➢ Kings/Tulare Homeless Alliance (Continuum of Care)
Regional Homelessness Coordination & Supportive Services Program
Project Name: Regional Homelessness Coordination & Supportive Services Program • Lead Agency: City of Hanford
• Partner Agency: Kings/Tulare Homeless Alliance (Continuum of Care - CoC) • Target Facility: Hanford LINC (Located at the Episcopal Church Soup Kitchen) • National Objective: LMC — Low-and-Moderate-Income Limited Clientele • Key Housing Outcomes: 4 individuals successfully transitioned into permanent housing • Annual PIT Count: 261 unhoused individuals documented
During the reporting period, the City of Hanford partnered with the Kings/Tulare Homeless Alliance (CoC) to address regional homelessness through coordinated, multi -agency strategic efforts.
Community Development Block Grant (CDBG) funds supported critical tracking, administrative compliance, and field outreach activities. Specifically, funding supported the CoC as they executed the annual Point-in-Time (PIT) census, a comprehensive street and shelter count required to capture accurate demographic data, track emerging local trends, and secure regional resource allocations for the unhoused population.
A core component of this partnership's direct public service delivery was funding and operating the Hanford LINC (Local Initiative Navigation Center) hub. Operating out of the Episcopal Church Soup Kitchen, Hanford LINC served as a centralized, low -barrier drop -in resource providing vital wraparound services to 157 individuals. These essential services included:
• Mental health assessments and program enrollments
• Mainstream benefit and Social Security advocacy
• Substance abuse referrals and treatment connections
• Veteran services and housing counseling
• Document readiness support (free birth certificates and California ID vouchers) • Immediate basic needs assistance (food and hygiene item distributions)
By integrating dedicated housing navigators stationed directly at LINC, the program provided an effective pathway out of homelessness, successfully securing permanent housing connections for 4 individuals who actively participated in case management.

9 successfully provided immediate, secure emergency housing to 67 unhoused individuals, consisting of 37 adults and 30 children, generating a total of 4,153 bed nights. Operational metrics show an average utilization rate of about 346 bed nights per month, with an average nightly occupancy of 11 beds.
To foster stabilization and self -sufficiency, the shelter paired temporary residency with comprehensive, low -barrier support services. All clients received direct case management, three nutritious meals and two snacks daily, free laundry amenities, and complimentary Wi -Fi access, along with structured referrals to partner networks for external specialized assistance. Furthermore, integrated housing navigation services effectively transitioned eligible clients into stable, permanent environments by cross-enrolling them into long-term residential assistance initiatives, including the CalAIM (California Advancing and Innovating Medi-Cal) systems.
Youth Recreation Program
Lead Agency: City of Hanford Parks and Community Services Department National Objective: LMC — Low- and Moderate-Income Limited Clientele Target Demographic: Youth ages 5 to 12 (Seasonal Day Camps) and ages 5 to 17 (Recreational Activities)

10 27 preschool-aged children. Hosted at the Plunge Pool facility, this initiative successfully removed economic and logistical barriers for families by combining municipal facility space with KCAO's outreach networks. The project met HUD metrics by providing target demographic groups with basic swimming skills, water confidence, and drowning-prevention education.
➢ Senior Meal Program – Kings County Commission on Aging Home-Delivered Meals Program
• Lead Agency: City of Hanford
• Partner Agency: Kings County Commission on Aging
• National Objective: LMC — Low-and-Moderate-Income Limited Clientele (Elderly/Disabled) • Total Beneficiaries: 140 unduplicated seniors served
• Service Scope: 7 meals per week delivered once weekly (including fresh fruits and vegetables) over 5 days of service coverage throughout the year (excluding holidays).
Narrative Summary
During the 2025 program year, the City of Hanford partnered with the Kings County Commission on Aging to administer the Home-Delivered Meals Program and provide essential nutritional support to vulnerable populations. The initiative targeted homebound seniors and individuals with disabilities residing within both the City limits and surrounding unincorporated areas who are functionally unable to leave their homes or independently prepare adequate food. The program delivered 4,332 meals.
To combat food insecurity and support independent living, the program successfully delivered seven nutritious, balanced meals, along with fresh fruits and vegetables, once per week to qualified participants. Over the reporting period, the program served 140 unduplicated seniors, providing consistent nutritional baselines 5 days per week throughout the year (exclud ing holidays). By removing access barriers for individuals facing severe physical or geographical isolation, this CDBG- supported program successfully fulfilled HUD national objectives for elderly and disabled limited clientele.
➢ Emergency Assistance Payments Program
Senior Emergency Assistance Program
11 • Lead Agency: City of Hanford Community Development Department • National Objective: LMC — Low-and-Moderate-Income Limited Clientele (Elderly Presumed Benefit)
• Total Beneficiaries: 31 senior assisted
• Activity Classification: HUD Matrix Code 05Q — Subsistence Payments (Rent/Utilities) Narrative Summary
During the reporting period, the City of Hanford utilized designated grant funding to administer an emergency Subsistence Payments Program specifically targeting vulnerable elderly residents. The program provided direct short -term financial assistance to p revent displacement and utility disconnections, successfully supporting 31 low - and moderate -income senior households with critical rent and utility payments.
The administration identified a severe, disproportionate trend of financial hardship among Hanford’s senior population. Rising fixed living costs, coupled with stagnant retirement incomes, have created significant, ongoing demand for emergency housing stabilization resources. By directly mitigating these essential housing and utility deficits, the City protected at-risk seniors from housing instability and met HUD compliance metrics for low- and moderate-income limited clientele support.
➢ Food Bank Service Center Project
Project Title: KCAO Food Bank Service Center
• Implementing Agency: Kings Community Action Organization (KCAO). • Completed Progress: Expended $200,000 in CDBG funds exclusively on pre-development soft costs (planning, architectural designs, and environmental assessments). • Current Status / Evaluation: KCAO staff is evaluating a formal change in project activity from planning to physical construction (hard costs).

18 CR-25 - Homeless and Other Special Needs 91.220(d, e); 91.320(d, 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, faith -based partners, governmental agencies, and other key stakeholders. KTHA hosts multiple monthly meetings, such as the Case Management Roundtable, Membership Meetings (E xecutive, 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 ongo ing outreach to connect people who are least likely to access resources. Since July 2020, 1625, people experiencing homelessness have been assessed for housing. During fiscal year 25/26, 375 individuals and families experiencing homelessness enrolled in Coordinated Entry and 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 Coordinated Entry System referred 22 individuals and families experiencing homelessness to housing at Northstar Courts, an affordable housing complex. In 2025, KTHA referred 22 individ uals 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 the Every Door Open approach, people experiencing homelessness can have an assessment completed by contacting 2-1-1.
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:

The emergency shelters established in response to COVID-19 through Project Roomkey have closed.
Operations at the Stardust Hotel ended in January 2023 to allow for its conversion to Sunrise Apartments, and the Holiday Lodge, the remaining Project Roomkey site in Kings County, closed on July 31, 2023. During its three-year operation, Project Roomkey provided temporary housing to 386 individuals and helped 95 individuals transition to permanent housing. The former Stardust Hotel has since been converted into Sunrise Apartments, providing 22 units of permanent supportive housing for individuals experiencing homelessness. Sunrise Apartments was completed and officially opened in July 2025.
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 peri od 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 criter ia 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, the Alliance can build strong relationships 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 provide 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 in 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. Providing public housing is a function of county government; therefore, the City will not fund 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 poli cies affecting the return on residential investment. 91.220 (j); 91.320 (i)
The City of Hanford adopted the 2035 General Plan on April 24, 2017. During the update process, the City made zoning ordinance changes and reviewed all policies and procedures to determine whether to update, remove, or otherwise amend them.
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 Council adopted the 2024 – 2032 Housing Element on May 19, 2026.
The City has instituted several policies and programs that encourage the development and preservation of affordable housing, including developing new affordable housing, clearing blighted properties for reuse as new housing, and rehabilitating existing houses.
Actions taken to address obstacles to meeting underserved needs. 91.220(k); 91.320(j) 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, an d 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.
Achievements in the fiscal year to provide affordable housing include, but are not limited to, the following:
• The City maintained its First -Time Homebuyer Program during Program Year 2025 –2026; however, no households received mortgage assistance because the California Department of Housing and Community Development (HCD) placed the HOME Program Income -funded program on hold. Approximately $1.9 million in HOME Program Income remained unavailable for use during the reporting period.
• Administered the Housing Rehabilitation Program, with $293,975 allocated to provide grants for essential health and safety repairs to eligible low- and moderate-income homeowners.
23 • Continued collaboration with and support for the Kings/Tulare Continuum of Care by allocating $10,000 in CDBG funds to support homelessness prevention, coordination, and services for individuals and families experiencing or at risk of homelessness.
Actions taken to reduce lead-based paint hazards. 91.220(k); 91.320(j) Lead is a highly toxic metal that may cause various health problems, especially in young children.
When the body absorbs lead, it can damage 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.

25 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 (AI) 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, fair housing system and implement similar fair housing procedures. In addition, the City will continue to work with regional public transit providers to identify opportunities to improve service to low - income households and special -needs populations (including older adults and peop le 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. The City has partnered with the City of Porterville and jointly solicited proposals from qualified organizations to develop, imple ment, 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 receive information on 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 into before the new HUD mandate. The foreclosure education and referral process has positively impacted homeowners facing foreclosure by helping them identify options that could prevent foreclosure and by providing the public with important housing information.
Affirmative Outreach to Applicants and Participants
To affirmatively further fair housing, CSET's Housing team will continue implementing strategies that expand access to fair housing education, increase awareness of housing rights, and reduce barriers to equal housing opportunity throughout the City of Hanford.
The program will conduct targeted outreach by distributing Fair Housing and tenant rights educational materials through community agencies, schools, affordable housing communities, partner organizations, and community events, with an emphasis on reaching u nderserved populations and members of protected classes. Housing staff will continue providing education on federal, state, and local fair housing laws; tenant and landlord rights and responsibilities; and available housing resources and referral services.
Participant demographic information will continue to be collected to evaluate the effectiveness of outreach activities, identify underserved populations, and guide future outreach efforts. CSET will also strengthen partnerships with community -based organiz ations, housing providers, and other
26 stakeholders to improve referrals, coordinate services, and expand access to Fair Housing resources.
Through these activities, CSET will continue to affirmatively further fair housing by increasing public awareness, improving access to housing information and services, reducing barriers to housing choice, and promoting equal housing opportunities for all residents, particularly those who have historically experienced housing discrimination.
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 th e 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 homelessness 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 i n meeting the approach developed in the AI over the year.
27 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 subrecipient 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 proactively 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, the City publishes a notice in English and Spanish in the Hanford Sentinel soliciting public comment. The public comment period runs from September 1, 2026, through September 1 6, 2026. Copies of the CAPER are available for public review at the Community Development Department counter in City Hall and on the City’s website.
The CAPER requires a public hearing before the City Council to approve the document before submission 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 15, 2026, 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.
Public Comments: Comments received will be included in the final document at the end of the public review period and the public hearing.
28 CR-45 - CDBG 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 2025–2026 program year represents the second year of the City's five -year Consolidated Plan (2024–2028). During this reporting period, the City continued implementing the priorities and objectives identified in the Consolidated Plan while evaluating progress toward its five-year goals.
The City continues to proactively evaluate programs, projects, policies, and activities to meet targeted goals and align with current funding levels. Based on experience, the City Council provides challenging, strategic recommendations. For example, the City Council recommends an alternative priority project or program when funding moves slowly.

AGENDA
STAFF REPORT
MEETING DATE: 9/15/2026 AGENDA SECTION: PUBLIC HEARING
SUBJECT:
First reading of Ordinance 26-06 to grant the City Manager authorization to accept, on behalf of the governing body, streets and roads or portions thereof, into the city street system and to record conveyances to the city of real property interests for street and road uses and purposes.
Recommendation:
Staff recommends that City Council waive the first reading of Ordinance 26-06 to grant the City Manager authorization to accept, on behalf of the governing body, streets and roads or portions thereof, into the city street system and to record conveyances to the city of real property interests for street and road uses and purposes.
Recommended Motion:
I move to waive the first reading of Ordinance 26-06 to grant the City Manager authorization to accept, on behalf of the governing body, streets and roads or portions thereof, into the city street system and to record conveyances to the city of real property interests for street and road uses and purposes.
Summary:
At present, the City Council must accept roads into the city street system by adoption of resolutions as needed, based on project-specific conditions. California Street and Highways Code Section 1806(c) states that the governing body of a city may, by ordinance, designate a city officer to accept, on behalf of the governing body, streets and roads or portions thereof, into the city street system and to record conveyances to the city of real property interests for street and road uses and purposes.
City staff recommends that the City Council authorize the City Manager to exercise acceptance authority per California Street and Highways Code Section 1806(c) since Hanford Municipal Code Section 2.08.060.K. allows the City Manager to perform such duties and exercise such powers as may be delegated to the City Manager from time to time by ordinance or resolution of the City Council.
City staff is scheduled to return to City Council for the second reading and adoption of Ordinance 26- 06 on October 6, 2026.
Background:
The proposed Ordinance would eliminate the need for staff to seek separate City Council actions to accept streets and roads or portions thereof, into the city street system and to record conveyances to the City of real property interests for street and road uses and purposes. This change would reduce the amount of staff time involved in preparing staff reports, thereby reducing delays in overall project deliverables.
The City Council and Planning Commission will retain approval authority for development projects as currently identified in the City’s Municipal Code. Additionally, dedications on any final map or parcel map will continue to be approved by the City Council in accordance with the Subdivision Map Act.
This procedural change is proposed as an effort to streamline the City of Hanford's process of acceptance of streets and roads or portions thereof into the city street system and to record conveyances of real property interests for street and road purposes ministerially. The primary objectives are to improve operational efficiency, reduce project turnaround times, and optimize the use of staff time and resources.
While this ordinance will allow the City Manager to accept dedications into the City Street System, in order for the City Manager to accept other types of dedications, both in fee and as easements, a resolution (proposed at this same Council meeting) will also need to be adopted.
Environmental Review:
This action is not a project within the meaning of the California Environmental Quality Act (CEQA) Guidelines §§ 15378 and 15061(b)(3) as it proposes an organizational structure change that will not result in any direct or indirect physical change in the environment.

AGENDA
STAFF REPORT
MEETING DATE: 9/15/2026 AGENDA SECTION: GENERAL BUSINESS
SUBJECT:
Staff presentation regarding the preliminary draft Objective Design Standards and Council input on the proposed standards and next steps
RECOMMENDATION:
Recommendation: Receive a staff presentation regarding the preliminary draft Objective Design Standards and provide input on the proposed standards and next steps.
BACKGROUND:
The City is preparing Objective Design Standards as part of a broader planning effort funded through the Regional Early Action Planning Grants Program (REAP 2.0) administered by the Kings County Association of Governments. The project also includes preparation of an Environmental Justice Element and an update to the City's Subdivision Ordinance. The City retained Mintier Harnish to assist with this work.
Objective Design Standards establish clear and measurable design requirements that can be applied without relying on personal or subjective judgment. The standards are intended to provide greater predictability for applicants, staff, Council, and the public while helping new residential development reflect the City's design expectations.
Discussion
Staff and the consultant have reviewed the City's existing requirements, evaluated standards used by other jurisdictions, and prepared an initial working draft for discussion. Staff has also focused on concerns previously raised regarding the appearance and livability of compact and small-lot residential development, including privacy, building massing, parking, garage prominence, pedestrian access, and streetscape design.
The draft standards presented with this item are preliminary. They are being provided at this stage so that the City Council can review the general direction of the work and identify concerns before the document is fully refined, reformatted, and prepared for formal review and adoption. The draft should not be viewed as a final policy document, and staff is not requesting line-by-line approval of the proposed language.
The preliminary draft addresses several categories, including:
• Applicability of the standards and their relationship to the Hanford Municipal Code;
• Site planning, neighborhood compatibility, pedestrian circulation, streetscape design, walls, fencing, and common areas;
• Building orientation, architectural articulation, upper-floor massing, and privacy considerations; • Parking layout, guest parking where on-street parking is restricted, garage frontage, and the treatment of porte cochère; and
• Additional standards for small-lot single-family development, including front-yard paving, building separation, upper-story design, and pedestrian improvements.
Several provisions remain under review and will likely be revised after the Council discussion.
Graphics will also be restored or updated in the next draft to illustrate the standards where an image will make the requirement easier to understand and administer. The consultant will continue reviewing the draft to ensure that the requirements are written as objective, measurable standards.
Implementation of the Objective Design Standards will also require corresponding amendments to the City’s Zoning Ordinance. Certain existing development requirements, including setbacks and other dimensional standards, will need to be modified to accommodate the proposed standards and intended small-lot residential development patterns. Staff is still developing these amendments, and no Zoning Ordinance changes are proposed for approval as part of this informational item. The necessary amendments will be presented through the formal review and adoption process following the final Objective Design Standards.
Council Input
Staff seeks input from Council input on the following:
• Whether the overall level of design regulation is appropriate for new residential development in Hanford;
• Whether the small-lot standards adequately address privacy, building separation, upper-floor massing, and neighborhood appearance;
• Whether the proposed parking, garage, guest parking, sidewalk, and streetscape standards strike an appropriate balance between design quality and feasibility; • Whether any proposed standards appear unnecessary; and • Whether there are additional design issues or outcomes the Council would like staff and the consultant to address in the next draft.
Council comments will be treated as input for further drafting. Because no adoption is proposed, the Council is not being asked to approve the preliminary standards or commit the City to any particular provision.
Next Steps
Following this presentation, staff and the consultant will revise the draft based on Council input, complete additional technical review, refine the organization and graphics, and prepare a more complete version for review. The current anticipated process is:
• Revise the preliminary standards based on Council input and continued staff and consultant review;
• Prepare a clean, more complete draft for Planning Commission review, anticipated for October 27, 2026;
• Make any additional revisions following the Planning Commission meeting; and • Return to the City Council at a later meeting for formal consideration of the final Objective Design Standards
FISCAL IMPACT:
There is no direct fiscal impact associated with receiving the presentation and providing input.
Preparation of the Objective Design Standards is funded through the City's REAP 2.0 planning grant.

CITY OF HANFORD
Objective Design Standards
TABLE OF CONTENTS
3 1. INTRODUCTION
1.1 Purpose and Goals
The City of Hanford Objective Design Standards provide objective requirements for the design of single-family residential development. These Objective Design Standards will ensure that new development creates buildings and landscapes that are in keeping with the physical and architectural character of Hanford. Unlike design guidelines, objective design standards are written to have no personal or subjective judgment. In other words, the goal of these objective design standards is to provide a clear and straight forward application and approval process for single family housing construction in the city.
1.2 User Guide
This document contains objective design standards for five topic areas. These areas, and the developments to which they apply, include:
1. Site Design
The standards in this section apply to all single-family residential development projects.
2. Building Design
The standards in this section apply to all single-family residential development projects.
3. Landscaping and Lighting
The standards in this section apply to all single-family residential development projects.
4. Neighborhood Design
The standards in this section apply to single-family residential subdivisions and neighborhoods.
While standards in the first three sections apply to individual houses within subdivisions, these standards govern larger circulation, landscaping, open spaces and other features of entire neighborhoods. They do not apply to the development of single sites.
5. Small Lot Design
The standards in this section apply to lots from 3,200 sqft. to 4,999 sqft.
4 All individual topics or subtopics begin with a design intent statement, followed by specific standards. The intent statements are provided to help the reader understand the overarching principle behind the standard requirements and do not serve as review criteria.
A checklist listing the objective design standard requirements is provided in the appendix of this document. This checklist should be filled out by the applicant and reviewed by staff to indicate whether the applicant’s project meets the requirements for non-discretionary staff review.
1.3 Relationship to State and City Regulations
The following describes how these objective design standards relate to and comply with State and City regulations:
General Plan. The Hanford General Plan includes the goal of providing opportunities for achieving quality design and improving “quality of life through use of practical design principles and standards.”
“The visual aesthetics of places, both natural and manmade, contribute to the identity of a community. Through community design, Hanford can build and sustain an urban fabric that strengthens its assets and strives to bring coherence and an ongoing identity to this growing community. High-quality design contributes to memorable, vibrant places where people enjoy spending time.”
Hanford General Plan, 3.10 Community Design
Zoning Ordinance. All development must comply with the regulations within the City of Hanford’s Zoning Ordinance. These objective design standards are applicable to new SFR housing built on parcels in Districts in which single-family development is permitted, each of which is identified and described further in the City’s Zoning Ordinance.
Applicability to Accessory Structures. Accessory structures, including accessory dwelling units, garages, workshops, and storage structures, shall comply with the applicable provisions of these Objective Design Standards. Where these standards conflict with state law or the City’s adopted accessory dwelling unit regulations, state law and the applicable provisions of the Hanford Municipal Code shall control.
5 Historic Resources Permits. Buildings and structures listed on a local, State, or national historic register shall be subject to the City’s applicable historic preservation requirements. Where those requirements conflict with these Objective Design Standards, the historic-preservation requirements shall control.
Building and Fire Code Applicability. Compliance with these Objective Design Standards does not supersede or waive any requirement of the California Building Standards Code, California Fire Code, or any local amendments adopted by the City. All projects shall comply with applicable building, residential, fire, accessibility, energy, and green building requirements. Approval under these standards does not constitute approval of a building permit, fire permit, or related construction permit. If an irreconcilable conflict exists, the applicable building or fire code requirement shall control.
1.4 Review Process
Only applicants with projects on sites on the Hanford Zoning Map where SFR is permitted by-right can apply for ministerial design review. As demonstrated by the following summaries, the SFR project review process depends on the type of project, the property status and associated subdivision actions.
• Single Family Residential on already subdivided parcel. Applicants for projects that do not require map processing shall submit plans directly to the Community Development Department. Concurrent with the Community Development Department’s review, the application will be routed to other City departments for review of compliance with these objective design standards and the city’s Zoning Ordinance. Such projects are ministerial and exempt from CEQA.
• Residential Subdivision. Applicants for residential subdivisions shall submit plans to the city, which will be routed to various departments for entitlements and subdivision map processing.
Individual units of such projects shall be reviewed for compliance with these objective design standards during entitlements phase, alongside evaluation for conformance with the General Plan, Zoning Ordinance and Subdivision Ordinance. Such projects require CEQA review, possibly in the form of Initial Study/Mitigated Negative Declaration or Environmental Impact Report (EIR).
6 Exceptions from Objective Design Standards. A project that complies with all applicable objective standards shall be processed ministerially when required by state law. A request to deviate from one or more Objective Design Standards shall be processed as a Variance or Planned Unit Development in accordance with the procedures applicable to variances established by the Hanford Municipal Code.
An application for minor deviation shall identify each standard from which an exception is requested and shall include plans, elevations, photographs, and other information demonstrating the proposed alternative design.
If a project does not meet one or more of the objective design standards, the applicant can amend their application to comply, or when appropriate, the City of Hanford’s Community Development Director can administratively approve minor deviations (e.g., when the applicant can demonstrate that site design/layout would be improved or that there is a constraint that would make complying with a standard infeasible given site layout, etc.) from the objective design standards.
The Community Development Director may approve an exception only when it finds that:
1. The alternative design provides an architectural or site-design feature that serves the purpose of the standard from which the exception is requested;
2. The exception is necessary because of the dimensions, configuration, existing improvements, easements, or physical conditions of the property; and
3. The exception will not create a greater impact on adjoining properties than would result from strict compliance with the standard.
Decisions on exceptions may be appealed in accordance with the appeal procedures established by the Hanford Municipal Code. The expiration, extension, and revocation of an approved exception shall be governed by the provisions applicable to variances.
For deviations not deemed minor, the applicant can choose to proceed with a variance or Planned Unit Development (PUD), as applicable. The project will still be reviewed for conformance with the Objective Design Standards by the Planning Commission while taking into consideration whether the deviation(s) from the standards is appropriate.
7 2. DEVELOPMENT STANDARDS
All residential development shall comply with the applicable development standards of the Hanford Municipal Code, including requirements for lot dimensions, setbacks, building height, parking, and accessory structures. Applicants shall refer to the standards for the applicable zoning district.
