CITY COUNCIL AGENDA STAFF REPORT
MEETING DATE: March 20, 2023
SUBJECT: Public Utility Easement across 1115 Vine Street, APN 002-820-003 PREPARED BY: Randy Long, Senior Electric Engineering Technician STRATEGIC INITIATIVE(S):

Maintain and Improve Infrastructure and Facilities
RECOMMENDED ACTION(S):

Adopt a Resolution accepting a Public Utility Easement from RM Healdsburg LTD ("Safeway") at 1115 Vine Street, APN 002-820-003.

COMMUNITY ENGAGEMENT/OUTREACH:

Not applicable.

BACKGROUND:

In order to own, inspect, maintain, and repair utility equipment sited on private property, public utilities require the dedication of public utility easements. These public utility easements preserve the City’s right to continue to provide utility service to the property and/or neighboring properties. Public utility easements also grant the utility the right of entry to the property as needed to maintain utility service.

DISCUSSION/ANALYSIS:

R/M Healdsburg, LTD has offered an easement to the City of Healdsburg for public utilities to be installed at the property commonly known as 1115 VINE ST., APN 002-820-003 (portion).

The public utility easement will protect the rights of the City to perform such functions as maintaining, inspecting, operating, repairing, and replacing public utilities within the easements.

The proposed work will install electric utility equipment (high-voltage switches, transformers, and underground cable) on private property. This equipment is necessary to serve the increased energy demand required of the direct-current (DC) fast charging stations to be installed and paid for by Electrify America.

The recommended resolution accepts the dedication of these public utility easements over a portion of the property named above, authorizes the City Manager to certify the acceptance of

6.B
Packet Pg. 40
the easement, and directs staff to record the public utility easements with the Sonoma County Recorder’s office.

ENVIRONMENTAL STEWARDSHIP:

This PUE will allow the City to place and maintain electric utility equipment necessary to serve Electrify America’s DC fast chargers. The installation of additional EV charging station helps support climate goals and the transition away from fossil fuels.

ALTERNATIVES:

The City could reject the offer of dedication and provide further direction to staff. Without the acceptance of dedication of the easement the City may not be able to provide utility services to the property, therefore hindering the development of this site. Additionally, should staff be directed to not record the easement with the County the easement would not appear on title reports leaving subsequent buyers unaware of the public utility easement and encumbrances upon the property.

FISCAL IMPACT:

There is no fiscal impact for the City related to the proposed action. The work performed by the City will be reimbursed by the contractor and the PUE across private lands is at no cost to the City.

ENVIRONMENTAL ANALYSIS:

The acceptance of public utility easements is not subject to the provisions of the California Environmental Quality Act (CEQA) because the acceptance is administrative and not a project, since it is not a discretionary action by a governmental agency and will not have a direct or reasonably foreseeable indirect impact on the environment.

CITY COUNCIL AGENDA STAFF REPORT
MEETING DATE: March 20, 2023
SUBJECT: 2023 Amendment to the Biosolids hauling and Disposing Agreement PREPARED BY: Patrick Fuss, Water/Wastewater Engineer
STRATEGIC INITIATIVE(S):

Pursue Initiatives that Promote Environmental Stewardship Maintain and Improve Infrastructure and Facilities
Maintain and Enhance Public Health and Safety
RECOMMENDED ACTION(S):

Adopt a Resolution amending the hauling and disposal of biosolids purchase order with Recology Inc. by increasing the not-to-exceed amount to $328,893.

COMMUNITY ENGAGEMENT/OUTREACH:

Not applicable.

BACKGROUND:

The City owns and operates the Water Reclamation Facility (WRF) that provides tertiary treatment to the City sanitary sewage. The WRF uses a biological process to remove pollutants from the sewage by feeding the sewage to bacteria. During the process, the bacteria biomass increases and periodically a portion of the bacteria biomass needs to be removed. The removed bacteria biomass is referred to as “biosolids.” Once the biosolids are removed from the process, they are dewatered to recover as much water from the biomass as possible, then the biosolids are hauled away and disposed of properly.

In 2021, the City advertised bids for the hauling and disposal of biosolids. The lowest responsible bidder was Recology with a bid of $1,701.74 per load for an estimated 84 load per year over a two-year period, for a total cost of $285,893. The resolution and purchase order were prepared indicating a total two-year cost of $258,893, sufficient for 76 loads per year or 152 loads over the two-year agreement period. The value entered in the resolution and the purchase order is a transposition error of the numbers in the calculated cost.

DISCUSSION/ANALYSIS:

Prior to the hauling and disposal contract, biosolids filled a 9 cubic yard roll-off bin, were hauled

6.C
Packet Pg. 45
away for disposal under the City’s solid waste franchise agreement, and not tracked in detail.

When biosolids were removed from the solid waste franchise agreement, and funded directly through the wastewater enterprise, the number of loads needed to be estimated. This estimation was based on the best information at the time at about 84 loads per year, based on approximately 1 to 2 load per week.

However, actual practice of filling the trucks while not overloading the trailers resulted in approximately 97 loads per year, equal to approximately 42 more trips than the purchase order agreement has funding. The agreement to haul and dispose of the biosolids is based on the City staff filling the trailer. Staff have been using trailer scales to maximize each load while still having the loads leave with legal wheel weights.

Additional funding of the existing purchase order agreement is necessary to continue to have the biosolids hauled and disposed of under the low-bid agreement. The existing purchase order agreement expires on April 21, 2023. Staff have advertised a request for proposals to replace the existing purchase order agreement when it expires. Staff recommends that the existing purchase order agreement for biosolids hauling and disposing be funded to address the number of loads anticipated through the purchase order term, until the new purchase order agreement for biosolids hauling and disposing is in place. This would entail funding for approximately additional 41 loads for a total increase to the purchase order agreement of $70,000.

ENVIRONMENTAL STEWARDSHIP:

Modification to the biosolids hauling and disposing from the WRF consists of eliminating the use of multiple trips per week with a with 9-cubic yard bin (the practice prior to November 2020), and replaced it with two trips per week with a 40-foot trailer. This reduces truck traffic and the potential environmental impacts that accompany a higher number of trips per week.

ALTERNATIVES:

City Council could decline to amend the agreement with Recology, Inc. Should City Council elect to not amend this agreement, Council should provide direction to staff on how to proceed with the biosolids hauling and disposing.

FISCAL IMPACT:

The wastewater treatment operations account for the Wastewater Fund has $163,023.96 charged to date against a budget of $430,300. Staff believes the wastewater treatment budget of the Wastewater Fund is sufficient to fund the $70,000 cost increase due to greater than estimated biosolids hauling and disposing quantity. No additional appropriations are necessary for the recommended action.

ENVIRONMENTAL ANALYSIS:

Biosolids hauling and disposing was evaluated in the 2005 environmental impact report prepared for the WRF which found impacts for this process to be less than significant. The recommended action is ministerial in nature and is therefore not subject to review under the California Environmental Quality Act.

CITY COUNCIL AGENDA STAFF REPORT
MEETING DATE: March 20, 2023
SUBJECT: Fitch Mountain Public Access Improvement Pedestrian Footbridges PREPARED BY: Jaime Licea, Parks Superintendent
STRATEGIC INITIATIVE(S):

Maintain and Improve Infrastructure and Facilities
RECOMMENDED ACTION(S):

Adopt a Resolution amending the Purchase Order for the Fitch Mountain Public Access Improvement Pedestrian Footbridges with Excel Bridge Manufacturing CO and increasing the not-to-exceed amount by $4,491 for a total of $54,391 and authorizing the City Manager to execute the contract amendment on the City's behalf.

COMMUNITY ENGAGEMENT/OUTREACH:

In 2016 City staff conducted several public meetings with community members and local stakeholder groups to help identify key topics to be addressed in the Fitch Mountain Park and Open Space Preserve Management Plan. One of the outcomes from the community meetings was for the City to develop a formal entrance to (“public access improvements”) Fitch Mountain Park and Open Space Preserve (“Preserve”), and the requested action will help fulfill this work.

BACKGROUND:

The Fitch Mountain Park and Open Space Preserve Management Plan identified public access improvements to access the Preserve from the Villa Chanticleer lower parking lot. A component of the public access improvements is to install pedestrian footbridges to cross a seasonal creek and access the fire road.

Consequently, staff enlisted the services of Excel Bridge Manufacturing CO to design and build two pedestrian footbridges in August of last year to ensure the project would meet the construction timeline of summer 2023.

DISCUSSION/ANALYSIS:

The current purchase order with Excel Bridge Manufacturing CO did not include taxes for the pedestrian footbridges; therefore, the purchase order needs to be amended to include taxes ($4,491) for the project. The additional $4,491 to cover the costs necessary for the pedestrian

6.D
Packet Pg. 49
footbridges will bring the total cost to $54,391.

Staff are requesting that the original purchase order with Excel Bridge Manufacturing CO be amended by an additional $4,491 to cover the costs necessary for the pedestrian footbridges. The additional budget request will bring the total costs to $54,391.

ENVIRONMENTAL STEWARDSHIP:

Not applicable.

ALTERNATIVES:

City Council may choose not to approve the contract amendment and provide direction to staff.

This alternative is not recommended since developing the public access improvements is a condition of the City Council approved Fitch Mountain Park and Open Space Preserve Management Plan
FISCAL IMPACT:

The proposed amendment to the Excel Bridge Manufacturing CO purchase order will cost $4,491, bringing the total contract value to $54,391. The Fiscal Year 2022-23 Adopted Budget for the Fitch Mountain Park and Open Space Preserve project is $2,777,099.

ENVIRONMENTAL ANALYSIS:

Amending the current purchase order with Excel Bridge Manufacturing CO is not subject to the provisions of the California Environmental Quality Act (CEQA) because approving an amendment to the purchase order is not a project since it will not result in direct or indirect physical changes to the environment.

CITY COUNCIL AGENDA STAFF REPORT
MEETING DATE: March 20, 2023
SUBJECT: Application for the Prohousing Incentive Pilot (PIP) Program PREPARED BY: Griselda Villarreal, Administrative Analyst II STRATEGIC INITIATIVE(S):

Expand Affordable Housing Opportunities
Provide Effective Governance
RECOMMENDED ACTION(S):

Adopt a Resolution authorizing the City Manager to submit an application for the Prohousing Incentive Pilot (PIP) Program and authorizing the City Manager to execute the agreement and any other documents necessary to complete the transaction.

COMMUNITY ENGAGEMENT/OUTREACH
This item will be heard at a public meeting in which the public will be provided with an opportunity to provide comment on the adoption of this resolution and staff’s recommendation to participate in the Prohousing Incentive Program.

BACKGROUND:

In 2019, AB 101 established the Prohousing Designation Program (PDP) administered by the California Department of Housing and Community Development (HCD). The PDP creates incentives for jurisdictions that are compliant with housing laws, housing element requirements, and have enacted Prohousing local policies that go beyond existing law.

On June 7, 2021, HCD released the PDP Emergency Regulations and Jurisdictions were able to begin applying for the Prohousing Designation starting July 1, 2021. Applications are reviewed on a rolling basis.

On December 15, 2022, HCD released a notice of funding availability and final guidelines for the Prohousing Incentive Pilot Program (PIP) funded through Chapter 364, Statutes of 2017 (SB 2, Atkins), which established the Building Homes and Jobs Trust Fund. The PIP program awards funds based on jurisdiction size and Prohousing Designation Program score based upon their PDP application.

6.E
Packet Pg. 53
On September 6, 2022, the City Council adopted Resolution NO. 135-2022 authorizing the City Manager to submit a PDP application to HCD.

On December 19, 2023, the City of Healdsburg submitted its PDP application to HCD and on March 6, 2023, the City received comments from HCD on the City’s PDP application.

DISCUSSION/ANALYSIS:

Staff recommends the City Council adopt a resolution authorizing the City Manager to submit an application for the Prohousing Incentive Pilot Program and authorizing the City Manager to execute the agreement and any other documents necessary to complete the transaction. The proposed resolution for Council consideration is an application threshold requirement needed for the PIP program and provided by the State.

While the City has submitted its PDP application to HCD, the City is still in the process of receiving the designation and responding to comments. The submittal of this application was done in conjunction with the development of the City’s 6th Cycle Housing Element update, as many of the programs proposed in the 6th Cycle Housing Element are used for scoring criteria in the PDP and PIP application.

Based upon PIP guidelines, the certification of the City’s Housing Element and the award of a “Prohousing Designation” are two of the threshold requirements necessary to be awarded funding through the PIP program. The City does not currently have either of these designations but is in the process of receiving both. Based on conversations with HCD representatives, we have been encouraged to apply in advance of these designations.

Should the Council approve this resolution, staff will submit the application to the PIP program and will work with HCD to determine the total amount the City is eligible to apply for once the scoring of the City’s Prohousing application is finalized.

ENVIRONMENTAL STEWARDSHIP:

Not applicable.

ALTERNATIVES:

The Council may choose not to approve the resolution to submit a Prohousing Incentive Pilot Program Application to HCD for funding. Should the Council choose not to approve the resolution, staff would seek further direction.

FISCAL IMPACT:

The final score of the City’s pending Prohousing Designation Program application will determine the City’s ranking for funding priority as well as the total eligible award amount for the Prohousing Incentive Pilot Program. The PIP program allocated over $3.8 million in funding for the Bay Area and $6.4 million as a residual set-aside. If awarded the City’s total amount will consist of a base award determined by population and bonus award determined by the final score of the PDP. The City will be eligible for a $75,000 base award, and $10,000 for each point the City receives on the Prohousing Designation Score.

ENVIRONMENTAL ANALYSIS:

Pursuant to Title 14, the California Code of Regulations, Section 15378(b)(5) of the California Environmental Quality Act (“CEQA”) guidelines, approval of this resolution is an administrative activity of the City that will not result in direct or indirect physical impacts to the environment.

CITY COUNCIL AGENDA STAFF REPORT
MEETING DATE: March 20, 2023
SUBJECT: Review and renew City of Healdsburg Military Equipment Use Ordinance and Policy and review and approve annual Military Equipment Report PREPARED BY: Matt Jenkins, Police Chief
STRATEGIC INITIATIVE(S):

Provide Effective Governance
Maintain and Enhance Public Health and Safety
RECOMMENDED ACTION(S):

Adopt a Resolution renewing Chapter 2.60 of the Healdsburg Municipal Code entitled Military Equipment Use Ordinance, Healdsburg Military Equipment Use Policy 707, and finding that the annual Military Equipment Report complies with the standards of approval set forth in Government Code Section 7071(d).

COMMUNITY ENGAGEMENT/OUTREACH:

The California Government Code and Healdsburg Municipal Code require that, within 30 days of submitting and publicly releasing an annual military equipment report pursuant to this section, the Police Department hold at least one well-publicized and conveniently located community engagement meeting, at which the general public may discuss and ask questions regarding the annual military equipment report and the law enforcement agency’s funding, acquisition, or use of military equipment. This community meeting will be held withing the prescribed timeframe at the Healdsburg Police Department.

BACKGROUND:

Effective January 1, 2022, Assembly Bill 481 (codified in Government Code §§7070, et seq.) required legislative bodies to adopt ordinances approving military equipment use policies.

Adopting such policies was required before law enforcement agencies could continue to engage in activities related to the use of “military equipment” as defined in the Government Code. The Healdsburg Police Department has “military equipment” in its inventory and engages in critical public safety activities in coordination with other local jurisdictions. Pursuant to AB 481, on April 18, 2022, the City Council adopted Ordinance No. 1215, adding Chapter 2.60 to the HMC, which approved a military equipment use policy for police services, and included an inventory (report) of the City’s military equipment. The Government Code and HMC require the City

6.F
Packet Pg. 58
Council to conduct an annual review of the Military Equipment Use Ordinance and Policy and vote on whether to renew the Ordinance and Policy. As explained in more detail below, the Government Code also requires an annual review of the military equipment report.

DISCUSSION/ANALYSIS:

The proposed resolution (Attachment 1) would confirm that the City Council has reviewed the Healdsburg Military Equipment Use Ordinance (Attachment 2), the Healdsburg Military Equipment Use Policy 707 (Attachment 3) and the annual military equipment report (attachment 4).

As required by Government Code §7071(e)(1) and HMC 2.60.030(F):

The [City Council] shall review any ordinance that it has adopted pursuant to this section approving the funding, acquisition, or use of military equipment at least annually and…vote on whether to renew the ordinance at a regular meeting held pursuant to the Brown Act.

On April 18, 2022, the City Council adopted Ordinance No. 1215 implementing HMC Chapter

2.60 as well as the Healdsburg Military Equipment Use Policy 707 (Policy 707) which are attached hereto as attachments 2 and 3, respectively.

The Police Department is responsible for ensuring that all provisions of Government Code §§7071 and 7072 and HMC Chapter 2.60 are met. The Council will continue to be required by law to review at least annually the ordinance and policy and will have the opportunity to renew it or make any necessary changes.

Policy 707 approves the continued use by authorized and trained personnel of equipment currently in the Police Department’s inventory when the use is necessary to maintain safety.

Policy 707 also allows the continued collaboration with other law enforcement agencies in the deployment or other use of military equipment within the City when exigent circumstances require a swift response. The Department works closely with other local, county, state and federal law enforcement agencies on police-related matters, including safeguarding the public’s welfare and safety, working on regional task forces, conducting training exercises, providing mutual aid and responding to emergencies. In exigent circumstances, there is sometimes the need to deploy military equipment from or lend military equipment to outside entities to promote the safety and security of the community. When military equipment is used under exigent circumstances, the proposed ordinance requires prompt reporting on the use to the City Council.

In addition, pursuant to Government Code § 7071(e)(2) and HMC 2.60.050, the City Council shall determine, based on the annual military equipment report (attachment 4), whether each type of military equipment identified in that report has complied with the standards of approval set forth in §7071(d) and HMC 2.60.030(D). The standards for approval are set forth below. Staff believes that Council can make the required findings because:

1. Authorizing the use of military equipment is necessary because there is no reasonable

6.F
Packet Pg. 59
alternative that can achieve the same objective of officer and civilian safety. The acquisition and use of this equipment is part of the Healdsburg Police Department’s overall approach to Critical Incident Management, Use of Force, De-Escalation and public safety. The equipment will enable department members to properly respond to both planned and unplanned events efficiently and effectively.

2. The proposed Military Equipment Use Policy will safeguard the public’s welfare, safety, civil rights, and civil liberties by ensuring required reporting out, the opportunity for community engagement and feedback, and transparency and oversight regarding the acquisition and use of the specified military equipment in the City of Healdsburg.

3. If purchasing the equipment, the equipment is reasonably cost effective compared to available alternatives that can achieve the same objective of officer and civilian safety.

4. Prior military equipment use complied with the military equipment use policy that was in effect at the time of the use.

ALTERNATIVES:

Council could make changes to the Military Equipment Use Policy and/or ordinance or choose to discontinue the policy.

FISCAL IMPACT:

There would not be any new, unplanned direct fiscal impacts to continuing the use of equipment already in the Department’s inventory or continuing to collaborate with other law enforcement agencies, including in mutual aid circumstances. Maintenance costs of existing equipment is within the Department’s budget. Additional equipment sought, as identified in the annual military equipment report (attachment 4), is accounted for within the Department’s adopted budget.

There will be staff time associated with compliance, annual review, reporting and community engagement meetings, all of which are required pursuant to applicable provisions of the Government Code.

ENVIRONMENTAL ANALYSIS:

Pursuant to California Public Resources Code § 21065 and the California Environmental Quality Act (“CEQA”) Guidelines § 15378, there is no possibility that this ordinance will have a significant impact on the physical environment and is not a project as defined under CEQA.

CITY OF HEALDSBURG

CITY COUNCIL AGENDA STAFF REPORT
MEETING DATE: March 20, 2023
SUBJECT: 2022 Housing Element Annual Progress Report
PREPARED BY: Griselda Villarreal, Administrative Analyst II STRATEGIC INITIATIVE(S):

Provide Effective Governance
RECOMMENDED ACTION(S):

By motion, accept the Housing Element Annual Progress Report for the 2022 calendar year and direct Staff to submit the report to the State of California Department of Housing and Community Development and the State Office of Planning and Research.

COMMUNITY ENGAGEMENT/OUTREACH:

This report is a State of California requirement as part of the City’s General Plan Housing Element, which is a product of community engagement and input. This item will be heard during a public meeting in which an opportunity for public comment is provided.

BACKGROUND:

The Healdsburg 2030 General Plan provides a comprehensive long-range plan used to inform and guide decision-making by residents, property owners, business interests, and elected and appointed City officials principally regarding the public and private land use and development that shapes Healdsburg’s physical environment.

In 2009, the City of Healdsburg completed a comprehensive revision of its General Plan, which was adopted by the City Council on July 6, 2009. One of the State-mandated elements of the General Plan is the Housing Element. State law requires that the Housing Element of the General Plan be updated every 8 years. A comprehensive revision of the General Plan Housing Element was adopted by the City Council on November 17, 2014, and certified by the State on January 8, 2015. This report provides an update on progress made on implementing the General Plan Housing Element through 2022.

State law also requires that the City submit an Annual Progress Report (“APR”) on the progress towards implementation of the Housing Element to the Governor’s Office of Planning and Research and the California Department of Housing and Community Development (HCD)

6.G
Packet Pg. 86
(Government Code §65400). A major area of focus of the APR is a description of the City’s progress in meeting the City’s share of regional housing needs as set forth in the City’s adopted Housing Element. Submittal of an APR to HCD qualifies the City for certain grant funds.

Moreover, on September 29, 2017, California Senate Bill 35 (SB-35) was signed by Governor Jerry Brown and became effective January 1, 2018. SB-35 applies in cities that are not meeting their Regional Housing Need Allocation (“RHNA”) goal for construction of above-moderate income housing and/or housing for households below 80% area median income (“AMI”). SB-35 amends Government Code Section 65913.4 to require local entities to streamline the approval of certain housing projects by providing a ministerial approval process. Streamlining includes the removal of the requirement for CEQA analysis, conditional use permits, design review, or any other similar discretionary entitlements granted by the Planning Commission. A project electing to pursue streamlining must meet certain eligibility criteria as well as providing a percentage of the proposed residential units as affordable.

The City of Healdsburg is currently in the process of updating its General Plan Housing Element for the 6th Cycle Housing Element as the City’s current Housing Element expired this year. The City has submitted a draft 6th Cycle Housing Element to HCD and is currently responding to comments received from HCD. Staff is scheduled to seek City Council adoption of the 6th Cycle Housing Element on May 1, 2023.

DISCUSSION/ANALYSIS:

The City of Healdsburg has been successful in meeting the RHNA goals for the construction of low, moderate, and above-moderate income housing for the current RHNA Cycle which extends through the end of 2022. This annual progress report will delineate the close-out of the 5th Cycle and the beginning of the 6th Cycle Housing Element Planning Period.

During the past 5th Cycle planning period, the City of Healdsburg made significant progress in providing affordable housing opportunities. The City not only facilitated the planning, permitting, and production of units in excess of its RHNA, but has also laid a solid foundation to continue with this success. A partial listing of the accomplishments of the 5th Cycle including:
• Passing Measure S, which provides 2% of Transient Occupancy Tax dedicated to affordable housing, now with annual revenues of more than $1M. • Passing Measure P and Measure H, which allow for middle-income deed restricted housing, either for sale or for rent, to be built outside of the City’s voter-initiated Growth Management Ordinance.
• Leveraging development projects to negotiate for the inclusion of affordable housing to house the City’s workforce including:
1) Montage Healdsburg
2) Hotel Trio
3) The Mill District
4) The North Village

6.G
Packet Pg. 87
• Protecting our naturally occurring affordable housing stock from market rate conversion by purchasing and rehabilitating 39 units across three properties and further leveraging them by master leasing 10 units for Permanent Supportive Housing. • Leveraging two City-owned properties for affordable housing which currently are in the planning process for approximately 176 affordable housing units. • Building a navigation center at the City-owned Victory Studios and Apartments that house 11 families and/or individuals that were formerly experiencing homelessness. • Receiving over $7M in State Project Homekey funding to open the first interim housing program in Northern Sonoma County to house those experiencing chronic homelessness and creating 22 units of extremely-low-income units.
• Achieving functional zero in housing displaced families and investing in prevention programs to offset evictions, including expanding upon rental relocation assistance programs beyond the provisions of AB 1482.
• Updating City ordinances to provide more favorable development processes and conditions for the development of Accessory Dwelling Units (ADUs) and updating our Inclusionary Housing Ordinance.

The accomplishments of the 5th Cycle have provided the City with a solid foundation in addressing the challenges of the 6th Cycle Housing Element and the City’s 203% increase in RHNA. This can be further evidenced in the draft Housing Element submitted for the 6th Cycle which already demonstrates the capacity of the City to meet its 6th Cycle RHNA by 2031.

APR Considerations for the End of the 5th Cycle of RHNA Because this APR will be the final report on the 5th Cycle Housing Element and the City is in the process of certifying its 6th Cycle Housing Element, some of the affordable housing units that started in the 5th Cycle will be applied to the 6th Cycle of RHNA. While the 5th Cycle of RHNA will end on January 31, 2023, the projection period, or the period in which units in the planning phase or in production may be counted towards the 6th Cycle RHNA began on June 30, 2022.

Therefore, units still in progress after June 30, 2022 will be counted towards the 6th Cycle of RHNA.

The projection period between the 5th and 6th Cycles of RHNA provides the City with an advantage moving forward in meeting its 6th Cycle RHNA, but it comes at the expense of falling 18 units short in the 5th Cycle for our Very-Low-Income units as these were still in progress after June 30, 2022.

As a result of this, the City will continue to be subject to streamlining provisions of SB 35 that require jurisdictions with insufficient progress towards the lower income RHNA to streamline development projects that propose over 50% affordability as a part of their project. To date, this

6.G
Packet Pg. 88
designation under SB 35 has not resulted in requests for streamlining, nor is it anticipated that this would be likely to occur.

The units projected to be counted towards the 6th Cycle of RHNA place the City in an exceptional position when it comes to meeting our State mandated RHNA over the next 8-year planning period. Because the City has a head-start on production, it will allow the City to focus on more local housing needs through the continued work of the Housing Element Work Group.

Should the City Council’s approve this Annual Progress Report, Staff will submit the City’s APR to the State by the April 1, 2023, deadline. The submission of this report will keep the City in compliance with Housing Element law.

ENVIRONMENTAL STEWARDSHIP:

Not applicable.

ALTERNATIVES:

The City Council may choose not to approve the submission of the City’s Annual Progress Report or make changes to the information in the report. Should the Council choose this course of action, staff would seek additional Council direction.

FISCAL IMPACT:

ENVIRONMENTAL ANALYSIS:

The Annual Progress Report is an informational item required to comply with State reporting requirements on mandated plans and policies, which does not qualify as a project pursuant to the

6.G
Packet Pg. 89
California Environmental Quality Act (“CEQA”) Guidelines Section 15378(b)(5) that states that organizational or administrative activities of governments that will not result in direct or indirect physical changes in the environment are not projects.

COMMUNITY ENGAGEMENT/OUTREACH:

No specific outreach has occurred for the preparation of this General Plan Annual Report since it is an informational report. Implementation of General Plan goals and policies typically involves engagement of the community.

BACKGROUND:

The Healdsburg 2030 General Plan helps to guide decision making by residents, property owners, business interests, and elected and appointed officials about public and private land use and development that shape Healdsburg’s physical environment.

DISCUSSION/ANALYSIS:

State law requires the City submit an annual report to the City Council, the Governor’s Office of Planning and Research (OPR) and the California Department of Housing and Community Development (HCD) on the status of the General Plan and progress made in its implementation.

6.H
Packet Pg. 92
previous year to carry out General Plan implementation measures, outlining actions planned for the coming year and identifying necessary revisions to the policy document.

In 2022, the City Council took numerous actions which forwarded goals and policies included in the General Plan. Attachment 1 to this report provides summaries of those actions by element of the General Plan.

ENVIRONMENTAL STEWARDSHIP:

Implementation of many General Plan goals and policies as outlined in the attached report reflects ongoing environmental stewardship.

ALTERNATIVES:

The report is a presentation of information only.

FISCAL IMPACT:

There are no fiscal impact associated with acceptance of the General Plan Annual Report.

ENVIRONMENTAL ANALYSIS:

The General Plan Annual Report is exempt from the provisions of the California Environmental Quality Act (CEQA) pursuant to CEQA Guidelines Section 15061(b)(3) (the “common sense exemption”) because it can be seen with certainty that there is no possibility that the General Plan Annual Report will have a significant effect on the environment.

INTRODUCTION
The 2030 General Plan, adopted July 6, 2009, provides a strategic program for addressing and planning for the quality of life and needs of the Healdsburg community through 2030. It includes all the state required elements as well as additional optional elements important to the Healdsburg community. The document consists of guiding principles and goals, policies and implementation programs, and it guides the physical development of the City. It has been prepared in accordance with the State Office of Planning and Research’s General Plan Guidelines.

California state law requires an annual report be prepared and presented to the City Council, along with delivery to the Office of Planning and Research and the Department of Housing and Community Development by April 1. Local policy also addresses annual reporting, providing additional direction.

General Plan policy AI-1 directs preparation of an annual report to the Planning Commission and City Council which focuses on actions undertaken in the previous year to carry out General Plan implementation measures, outlines actions planned for the coming year and identifies any necessary revisions.

This report addresses these requirements and outlines how key General Plan goals have been implemented over the last calendar year. The complete General Plan is available on the City’s website at https://www.ci.healdsburg.ca.us/354/General-Plan.

GENERAL PLAN IMPLEMENTATION ACTIONS IN 2022
State law allows amendment of the General Plan up to four times per year. During 2022, no General Plan amendments were considered by the Planning Commission and City Council.

Progress was made in forwarding key implementation actions during 2022. Below is a summary of implementation actions completed or underway by General Plan element.

LAND USE/COMMUNITY DESIGN
The Land Use Element sets forth the density and intensity of land uses and addresses development and redevelopment of land within the Urban Growth Boundary. It includes the Land Use Plan (map) and goals, policies, and implementation measures. The Community Design Element addresses the visual quality and character of Healdsburg’s built environment. The following summarizes new development in the City.

North Village
In February 2020, the Planning Commission approved a Master Conditional Use Permit for the North Village Project, a 32-acre mixed-use development in north Healdsburg. The project includes a senior community (Enso Village) with 221 independent living units (30 affordable) and 54 assisted living/memory care units; 75 multifamily apartments and 5 live-work units (54 affordable and 26 middleincome); 12,000 square feet of retail/commercial; and a 108-key hotel with restaurant, bar, and event space.

Attachment: General Plan Annual Report 2022 (3965 : General Plan Annual Progress Report) 2 City of Healdsburg General Plan Annual Report Calendar Year 2022 In 2020, the City Council approved the Development Agreement, which includes benefits to the City such as affordable housing units, construction of a fire department substation, and connectivity improvements including a shuttle from the site to downtown. In May 2021, the Planning Commission approved Conditional Use Permits and Design Review applications for the for the mixed-use and hotel components of the project. Building Permits for the senior community component (Enso Village) were issued in 2021 and construction began in 2022.

The North Village project helps implement Housing Element Goal H-A which calls for the City to “maximize opportunities for the development of a variety of housing types to accommodate anticipated growth, facilitate mobility within both the ownership and rental markets, and encourage a diverse community.”
Healdsburg Lumber Company Relocation
In December 2020, the Planning Commission approved a Major Design Review application for expansion of an existing lumber storage yard on Healdsburg Avenue to accommodate the relocation of Healdsburg Lumber Company’s existing lumber retail, office, door shop, and storage from its current location on Hudson Street. The 3.85-acre site has an existing 29,456 square foot building and includes a 41,646 square foot addition, 15,400 square feet of covered lumber storage, and improved access, circulation, parking, and landscaping. The project helps implement Economic Development Element Goal ED-A which calls for the City to “expand the commercial and industrial sectors of Healdsburg’s economy to increase jobs, meet the needs of residents and visitors, and generate revenues that support City services.” In 2021, Building Permits were issued, and in 2022 the project was under construction and nearing completion.

Mill District
In 2019, the City Council and the Planning Commission approved the Mill District mixed-use project to redevelop the 9.59-acre site located at 146 and 164 Healdsburg Avenue with 146 market-rate residential units, 30 middle-income residential units, 16 low-income residential units 24 very low-income residential units, 15,000 square feet of commercial space, 53 hotel rooms, and a 0.78-acre park. The building permits for the affordable housing component of the project were issued in 2021 and construction continued through 2022 and is nearing completion. On June 28, 2022, the Planning Commission approved a Major Design Review for the amenities building for the Mill District Project.

The Mill District project helps implement Housing Element Goal H-A, which calls for the City to “maximize opportunities for the development of a variety of housing types to accommodate anticipated growth, facilitate mobility within both the ownership and rental markets, and encourage a diverse community.”
Saggio Hills
In 2022, the City advanced multiple projects associated with the overall Saggio Hills development including approving the affordable housing component of the Saggio Hills project. The approval of the Saggio Hills affordable housing project advances General Plan Program H-14 which calls for the City to “develop the Saggio Hills affordable housing site with a range of housing types and target income groups.” The development has continued to pull permits throughout 2022 to continue the construction of the previously approved projects.

PUBLIC SERVICES
The Public Services Element focuses on providing facilities and services that are important to residents’ safety and quality of life. These facilities and services include drainage facilities, sewer and water lines, wastewater treatment plants, electrical utility infrastructure, passive and active recreation, police, fire, education, and health care. The following summarizes the public services projects approved in 2022. 3 North Street – Foley Family Pavilion
The City owns 3 North Street, across from City Hall, and in 2017 approved a schematic design for a Community Pavilion and Farmer’s Market at this location, directing staff to commence design work and to seek funding. In January 2020, the City received a funding pledge of $7 million for the plan from the Foley Family Foundation.

On April 19, 2021, The Council approved a memorandum of understanding with the Foley Family Foundation for funding the final design phase of the Community Pavilion Project and the Council agreed the Foundation will have the right to name the Community Pavilion Project. Once the design and the other project approvals have been approved by Planning Commission and City Council, the City and the Foundation will commence discussion and negotiation regarding the construction agreements for the project. The Council also approved a professional service agreement with TLCD Architects to provide the final design for the project.

The project submitted for Major Design Review on January 31, 2022, and continued the design review and environmental review processes throughout 2022. The project will be heard by the Planning Commission in early 2023.

This action helps the City implement Land Use Element policy LU-D-2 which directs the City to “seek to provide a diversity of uses within the downtown that serve both residents and visitors and shall avoid an over-concentration of a single type of use” as well as Public Services Element Goal PS-H which calls for “a park and recreation system that is suited to the needs and interests of Healdsburg residents and visitors.” Recycled Water Program Expansion Project, Phase II
On December 19, 2022, The City Council adopted a resolution accepting the Recycled Water Program Expansion Project Phase II. The project will add approximately 64 million gallons to the recycled water program and aid the City in reliably complying with the seasonal discharge prohibition requirement. The project helps to offset the use of surface water and groundwater to meet irrigation needs which helps maintain our environment, increase the local supply of water, and helps to build regional drought resiliency. The project implements Public Services Element Goal PS-B to provide an adequate level of service to the City’s sewage collection and disposal system to meet the needs of existing and projected developments.

Infrastructure Improvements
The City Council accepted and authorized numerous infrastructure improvements during 2022, consistent with General Plan policies directing adequate levels of service for the City’s water, wastewater, and storm drain systems.

NATURAL RESOURCES
The Natural Resources Element seeks to protect and improve Healdsburg’s water, agricultural, mineral, air, plant, wildlife, and scenic resources.

The City Council took several actions in 2022 consistent with Natural Resources Goal NR-E, “Reduce greenhouse gas emissions and increase energy efficiency communitywide” and Natural Resources Implementation Measure NR-16, “Implement greenhouse gas emissions reduction measures adopted by the City Council.”
Energy Efficiency and Zero Emission Building Programs
Healdsburg’s Electric Department continues to operate numerous energy efficiency and rebate programs for residential and commercial customers.

Climate Mobilization Strategy
In 2022 the City began the process of developing a Climate Mobilization Strategy to pursue greenhouse gas emission reductions for the City in support of RCPA’s goal for carbon neutrality by 2030.

SAFETY
The Safety Element seeks to prevent the loss of lives, injuries, and property damage due to geologic hazards, flooding, fire, crime, hazardous materials, and noise.

Verizon Wireless
On May 17, 2021, City Council authorized a land lease agreement for a portion of City-owned property adjacent to Tayman Park Golf Course to allow the installation of a Verizon, wireless communication facility. Wireless communication facilities are used by first responders and emergency personnel such as police, fire, emergency medical, homeland security, and disaster response agencies to respond to incidents or situations that pose a threat to people or property. The Conditional Use Permit and associated applications were approved on April 12, 2022.
2022 Building Code Update
On December 19, 2022, the City Council adopted an Ordinance adopting the 2022 California Building Standards Code. The amended code includes updates from the previously adopted code and ensures the health and safety of Healdsburg’s residents.

Fire Substation Project
On August 24, 2021, The Planning Commission re-approved a previously expired Major Design Review Application for the construction of a Fire Substation located at 1804 Healdsburg Avenue near the northern city boundary. The Fire Substation project is being developed in accordance with the Saggio Hills and North Village Development Agreements and the project continued to advance in 2022. The proposed Fire Substation helps to implement fire safety objectives of the Saggio Hills Area Plan.

In 2022, the City added a new ladder fire truck that offers a tighter turn radius, and the ability to reach higher locations than the vehicle it replaced. The new truck improves the City’s ability to respond to emergencies.

HISTORIC AND CULTURAL RESOURCES
The Historic and Cultural Resources Element seeks to preserve significant historic and Native American cultural resources. Such resources include buildings and neighborhoods of historic architectural significance, places of special historic or archaeological value, and other features that have special value to the community. Staff implements policies in this element throughout the year in its review of development proposals.
607 Johnson Street
On November 1, 2022, the Planning Commission approved a Major Design Review to allow for the restoration of the original residence, demolition of later additions and the existing carriage house. A Historic Resource Evaluation (HRE) was prepared to evaluate the changes to the structure and additions to determine compatibility with the Johnson Street Historic District. The HRE found that the changes were compatible with the intent of the HD overlay, which intends to preserve, maintain and enhance for historic integrity of designated areas within the City that are of historic significance or contain significant structures intended to protect. This project will help the City achieve Historic and Cultural Resources Goal HCR-A-1 to provide “promote the protection and enhancement of Healdsburg’s historically significant districts, buildings and landscape features”
Diversity Equity Inclusion
On March 21, 2022 the City Council adopted a Resolution allowing the City Manager to execute a contract with Acosta Latino Learning Partnership (ALLP) for specific services related to diversity, equity and inclusion services.

CITY OF HEALDSBURG

CITY COUNCIL AGENDA STAFF REPORT
MEETING DATE: March 20, 2023
SUBJECT: Growth Management Program Annual Report
PREPARED BY: Ellen McDowell, Senior Planner
STRATEGIC INITIATIVE(S):

Establish Proactive Policies/Programs to Continue to Promote Economic Diversity & Sustainable Growth
RECOMMENDED ACTION(S):

By motion, accept the annual Growth Management Ordinance annual report.

COMMUNITY ENGAGEMENT/OUTREACH:

No community outreach has occurred for the preparation of the Growth Management Annual Report given that it is an informational report.

BACKGROUND:

Measure M, a residential growth management initiative, was approved by Healdsburg voters on November 7, 2000. This measure limited residential building permits to an average of 30 units per year and no more than 90 over a 3-year period, with affordable units and accessory dwelling units exempt. Measure P, approved by voters on November 6, 2018, amended the City’s Growth Management Ordinance to allow an average of 50 additional multifamily rental units per year, not to exceed 150 units in a 3-year period, restricted to households earning no more than 160% of the Sonoma County Area Median Income, adjusted for household size for the unit. Measure H, approved by voters on March 3, 2020, amended Measure P’s additional unit allowance to permit these units to be for sale as well as for rent.

The Policies and Procedures for the Healdsburg Residential Growth Management Program were revised twice in 2019, first in January to recognize and implement passage of Measure P and secondly in May to incorporate recommendations made in 2018 by the Community Housing Committee, which had considered Growth Management policies at the direction of the Council.

The second revision of the Policies and Procedures in May 2019 also initiated a slightly new way of administering Healdsburg’s Growth Management program along with slightly increased flexibility. Several large projects had been approved, making growth management allocations difficult to secure for projects seeking the 30 units allowed under Measure M, and the City

6.I
Packet Pg. 101
Council was interested in adding flexibility within the parameters of the Growth Management Ordinance.

The Policies and Procedures allow 90 Category A (projects of four or fewer units) and B (projects of five or more units) allocations to be available in year one of a three-year period, rather than 30 units at the beginning of each year in the three-year period, which enables projects to receive allocations while fulfilling the Measure M provision of no more than an average of 30 units per year. The Policies and Procedures also allow 150 Category C allocations to be available in year one of a three-year period rather than 50 units at the beginning of each year in the three-year period. Changes to the definitions of Category A and B to allow more crossallocation also increases flexibility. Category C projects are those with 50 or fewer multifamily rental or for sale units restricted to households earning no more than 160% of the Sonoma County Area Median Income, adjusted for household size for the unit.

DISCUSSION/ANALYSIS:

The Policies and Procedures, Section 6. Administration requires the Community Development Director to prepare an annual report and sets forth the specific content of the report. Responses are shown in italics below each item.
(1) The number of dwelling allocations issued during the three-year period and in future periods.

The year 2022 was year 1 of a 3-year period under the Growth Management Program (Cycle 8). At the end of 2022, there were 54 allocations (4 Category A and 50 Category B) reserved for the 3-year period. The Category A allocations were reserved to construct 4 new single-family dwellings. The Category B allocations were reserved by the Mill District project. There were no Category C allocations reserved in Cycle 8.

In accordance with the Development Agreement between the City of Healdsburg and Replay Healdsburg LLC unused GMO allocations that would expire or be forfeited at the end of a calendar year shall, if requested, be issued to the Mill District project. At the end of 2022, fourteen (14) Saggio Hill’s allocations were set to expire or be forfeited. On December 21, 2022 Replay Healdsburg LLC requested that any expiring allocations be assigned to the Mill District project. The 14 expiring allocations have been reassigned to the Mill District and will expire December 31, 2025.
(2) The number of building permits issued for dwelling units during the prior year, including the Category of dwelling allocation and whether the permitted unit was exempt from the Growth Management Ordinance.

The City of Healdsburg issued permits for 68 new residential dwelling units in 2022. Of these, 18 were exempt from the Growth Management Ordinance, and 46 GMO allocations had been issued in previous years. The exempt units included 14 accessory dwelling units and 4 replacement units. Three Saggio Hills permits, and 43 Mill District permits had received GMO allocations in prior years.

The 4 units subject to the GMO included 4 Category A allocations and no Category B allocations.

6.I
Packet Pg. 102
(3) The status of any waiting list.

A waiting list was not established for Cycle 8 during 2022. (4) A description of any significant problems that arose during the prior year in administering the Growth Management Program.

No significant problems arose in administering the Growth Management Program during 2022. However, scarcity of Category B allocations will remain an issue, with only 10 Category B allocations available through the end of the 3-year period ending in 2024 (Cycle 8).
(5) Recommendations with regard to changes or revisions to these Policies and Procedures to improve its effectiveness and/or administration.

Revised Growth Management Ordinance Policies and Procedures were adopted by the City Council in May 2020; no revisions are recommended at this time.

ENVIRONMENTAL STEWARDSHIP:

The Healdsburg Growth Management Ordinance limits the number of residential units annually, which helps the City plan for, accommodate, and meter growth, which in turn may have environmental benefits such as reduced greenhouse gas emissions.

ALTERNATIVES:

No alternative has been identified since the report is required in accordance with the Policies and Procedures for the Healdsburg Residential Growth Management Program, Section 6.

Administration.

FISCAL IMPACT:

There is no fiscal impact related to the proposed action. The administration of the Growth Management Program is supported by the processing fee assessed for growth management allocations. According to the current fee schedule, the fee is $700.83 per growth management allocation permit.

ENVIRONMENTAL ANALYSIS:

The annual report is exempt from the provisions of the California Environmental Quality Act (CEQA) pursuant to CEQA Guidelines Section 15061(b)(3)(“the common sense exemption”) because it can be seen with certainty that there is no possibility that the annual report will have a significant effect on the environment.

CITY OF HEALDSBURG

CITY COUNCIL AGENDA STAFF REPORT
MEETING DATE: March 20, 2023
SUBJECT: Resolution authorizing City Manager to execute amended grant deeds relating to the transfer of title of the Saggio Hills Community Park property to the City
PREPARED BY: Linda Ruffing, Planning Consultant
STRATEGIC INITIATIVE(S):

Maintain and Improve Infrastructure and Facilities
RECOMMENDED ACTION(S):

Adopt a Resolution authorizing City Manager to execute a grant deed for Parcel 8 and amended grant deeds for Parcels 5, 6, 9, and 10 of the Saggio Hills Subdivision, as well as related certificates of acceptance attached to said grant deeds in connection with the transfer of title of the Saggio Hills Community Park property to the City.

COMMUNITY ENGAGEMENT/OUTREACH:

The City has conducted extensive community engagement and outreach related to the Master Planning process for the Community Park within the Saggio Hills Project site including community workshops, surveys, site walks, and hearings by the Parks and Recreation Commission, Planning Commission and City Council.

BACKGROUND:

The City and the Saggio Hills Project developer (Sonoma Luxury Resort, LLC or "SLR") entered into a Development Agreement ("DA") for the Saggio Hills Project on April 11, 2011.

Among many other matters, the DA obligates SLR to convey approximately 36 acres (Parcel 8) to the City for a public park.

The City and SLR are in the final stages of completing various obligations under the DA. As reported to the City Council several months ago, the City, SLR, and the current owner of the Montage Healdsburg resort properties (Oaks & Olives, LLC or "O&O") are pursuing an amendment to the DA that facilitates a property swap whereby SLR will transfer a portion of Parcel 8, which is subject to a Landscape Maintenance and Repair Easement ("Vineyard Easement"), to O&O in exchange for Parcel 7, which is adjacent to Parcel 8 (Public Park), and shown on Sheet 3 of 10 in the Final Map (Attachment 2). The Vineyard Easement is depicted on

6.J
Packet Pg. 104
Attachment 3. The process by which the property boundaries will be modified involves a lot line adjustment as between existing Parcels 7 and 8, which is set forth in a DA amendment ("Fourth DA Amendment") that will be approved administratively and that adjustment of lot lines will occur as between SLR and O&O prior to SLR transferring title to the new Parcel 8 to the City.

DISCUSSION/ANALYSIS:

Pursuant to California Government Code Section 27281, a conveyance of real property to a city/public agency requires the city to attach a certificate of acceptance to the deed executed by an authorized representative. In order to complete the transfer of new Parcel 8 to the City, the City Manager must be authorized to not only execute the deed on behalf of the City, but also execute the certificate of acceptance to be attached to the grant deed from SLR for new Parcel 8.

Furthermore, as a result of the aforementioned lot line adjustment, previous grant deeds recorded in connection with the conveyance of Parcels 5 and 6 (Affordable Housing Land), Parcel 9 (Pump Station), and Parcel 10 (Fire Substation) from SLR to the City need to be amended because those previously recorded deeds contain references to existing Parcel 7, which will become part of new Parcel 8 as part of the lot line adjustments. Accordingly, the City Manager must also be authorized to execute the amended grant deed and a certificate of acceptance to the amendments to the deeds for Parcels 5 and 6 (Affordable Housing Land), Parcel 9 (Pump Station), and Parcel 10 (Fire Substation) from SLR to the City. A proposed resolution is presented in Attachment 1.

ENVIRONMENTAL STEWARDSHIP:

Not applicable.

ALTERNATIVES:

None.

FISCAL IMPACT:

None.

ENVIRONMENTAL ANALYSIS:

Any environmental impacts related to the Saggio Hills Development Agreement have been reviewed and considered in accordance with the provisions of the California Environmental Quality Act. On January 31, 2011, the City Council certified the Final Environmental Impact Report ("EIR") for the Saggio Hills Planned Development Project (State Clearinghouse No. 2003062025) and adopted related findings, a Mitigation Monitoring and Reporting Program, and a Statement of Overriding Considerations. In accordance with the California Environment Quality Act (CEQA) Guidelines Section 15162, no further environmental review would be required for the Fourth DA Amendment because (i) there are no changes involving new significant environmental effects or a substantial increase in the severity of previously identified significant effects/impacts, (ii) there are no changes with respect to the circumstances under which the project is taken which will require major revisions to the EIR due to the involvement of new significant environmental effects or a substantial increase in the severity of previously identified significant effects/impacts, and (iii) there is no new information of substantial importance that was not known at the time the EIR was certified which shows (a) the project will have one or more significant effects not discussed in the EIR, (b) significant

6.J
Packet Pg. 105
impacts/effects will be substantially more severe than shown in the EIR, (c) mitigation measures or alternatives previously found not to be feasible would in fact be feasible and would substantially reduce one or more significant effects/impacts, or (d) mitigation measures or alternatives which are considerably different from those analyzed in the EIR would substantially reduce one or more significant effects/impacts on the environment.

Further, this action is exempt from CEQA in accordance with CEQA Guidelines Section 15061 (b) (3) because it can be seen with certainty that there is no possibility that the activity in question may have a significant effect on the environment.

CITY OF HEALDSBURG

CITY COUNCIL AGENDA STAFF REPORT
MEETING DATE: March 20, 2023
SUBJECT: Introduction of ordinance approving Fourth Amendment to the Development Agreement between City of Healdsburg and CCS Healdsburg, LLC
PREPARED BY: Linda Ruffing, Planning Consultant
STRATEGIC INITIATIVE(S):

Expand Affordable Housing Opportunities
RECOMMENDED ACTION(S):

By motion, introduce for first reading, by title only and waiving the full reading of the text, an ordinance amending the Development Agreement by and between the City of Healdsburg and CCS Healdsburg, LLC, for the North Village Project to modify the affordability levels for the affordable housing component of the North Village Project and to authorize a three-unit reduction in the overall number of affordable units in reliance on the certified NEAP EIR and with adoption of a CEQA exemption pursuant to Public Resources Code section 21083.3 and CEQA Guidelines section 15183.

COMMUNITY ENGAGEMENT/OUTREACH:

Planning for the North Village Project site began in 2018 with the initiation of the North Entry Area Plan planning process. Over the course of the past five years, the Planning Commission has held numerous workshops and the Planning Commission and City Council have conducted public hearings relating to entitlements for various components of the North Village Project.

Community engagement related to affordable housing within the North Village Project occurred in connection with the processing of master entitlements in 2019 and 2020, culminating in approval of a Development Agreement ("DA") with CCS Healdsburg, LLC ("Comstock") for the North Village Project (DA 2020-01).

The Planning Commission and City Council subsequently considered an amendment to the DA (DA 2020-01.01) to modify the affordability levels for 10 of the 30 units of affordable housing at the Enso Village Senior Housing community at public hearings conducted in February, March and June of 2022.

7.A
Packet Pg. 110
The Planning Commission conducted a public hearing on February 28, 2023 to receive public input and take action on an amendment to the DA proposed by Comstock and Burbank Housing Development Corporation ("Burbank") to adjust the affordability levels and number of affordable units within the non-senior housing portion of the North Village Project.

BACKGROUND:

The North Village Project site comprises the North Entry Area Plan ("NEAP") planning area. In May 2019, the Healdsburg City Council certified an Environmental Impact Report ("NEAP EIR") and adopted the NEAP and an ordinance amending the Healdsburg Municipal Code to establish implementing regulations for the NEAP. The NEAP establishes a vision concept, land use guidelines, development standards and design guidelines for a new mixed-use neighborhood on the 32-acre North Village site.

In April 2020, the City Council entered into a Development Agreement ("DA") with CCS Healdsburg, LLC ("Comstock") for the North Village Project (DA 2020-01). The DA allows for development of up to 301 residential units, approximately 12,000 square feet of commercial space, and a 108-key hotel with a restaurant, bar and other amenities. The DA required the developer to construct a minimum of 15 low- and very low-income units, 39 moderate-income units and 26 middle-income units, plus 20 senior living units affordable to households with very low-income and 10 units to households with moderate-incomes. The DA was amended in June 2022 at the request of the Enso Village developer (Kendal at Sonoma, a Zen Inspired Community) to change the affordability levels for 10 of the 20 very low-income senior living units that are reserved for the "Zen Teachers" to 5 low-income and 5 moderate-income units with 10 remaining as very low-income units (DA 2020-01.01). Two other amendments to the DA have been approved. One amendment modifies Comstock and City obligations with regard to construction of a Fire Substation (DA 2020-01.02); the other modifies the timing for recordation of the affordable/workforce housing regulatory agreement and middle-income housing regulatory agreement (DA 2020-01.03). The DA and its three amendments are available for review on the City's website at: https://www.ci.healdsburg.ca.us/842/North-Entry-Area-Plan.

A Master Conditional Use Permit (CUP 2020-04; "Master CUP") was approved by the Planning Commission in February 2020. It established allowable uses and densities for each of the four parcels on the North Village site, defined required backbone infrastructure improvements to serve the development, and authorized a Shared Parking Plan. The Master CUP was amended by the Planning Commission in February 2022 to modify the affordability requirements for Enso Village (CUP 2020-04.01) to conform to DA 2020-01.01 as discussed above.

In November 2020, the Planning Commission approved Design Review and a Conditional Use Permit (DR 2020-09, CUP 2020-02) authorizing development of a senior living community on Parcel 1 with 221 senior independent living units, 54 assisted living/memory care beds, and associated amenities. These permits were amended in February 2022 to authorize a reduction parking spaces and modifications to the floor plan and facades of the car barn.

In May 2021, the Planning Commission approved Design Review and a Conditional Use Permit (DR 2021-06, CUP 2021-03) for a 108-key hotel with fitness facility, spa, restaurant, rooftop bar and meeting spaces on Parcel 3 and Design Review and a Conditional Use Permit (DR 2021-07,

7.A
Packet Pg. 111
CUP 2021-04) for a mixed-use project on Parcel 4 with 12,000 square feet of commercial/retail space, 45 multi-family units, and 5 live-work units. Of these units, 24 would be targeted to moderate-income households and 26 would be targeted to middle-income households.

DISCUSSION/ANALYSIS:

Project Overview
The 32-acre North Village Project site is located at the northern end of Healdsburg between US 101 and Healdsburg Avenue (Attachment 2, Site Vicinity Map). The site is bisected by an inactive rail corridor which runs parallel to Healdsburg Avenue upon which the Sonoma-Marin Area Rail Transit has plans for future passenger rail service. Access to the site is provided via a public, at-grade rail crossing and a private street (Boxheart Drive) with a secondary emergency vehicle access from Healdsburg Avenue located near the north property boundary. While the site is approximately 32 acres, the developable area is roughly 18 acres in size due to constraints imposed by topography, drainage easements, a seismic fault zone and setbacks for the railroad corridor.

Fourth Amendment to the Development Agreement (DA 2020-01.04) The 4th DA Amendment would modify the affordability levels for Affordable/Workforce housing and Middle Income housing that is planned on Parcels 2 and 4 of the North Village Project. Attachment 1 presents the ordinance for adoption of the 4th DA Amendment with the text of the DA Amendment presented in Exhibit 1. As shown, Sections 5.1 and 5.2 of the DA are deleted in their entirety and replaced by modified language. Specific changes that are proposed are shown below with strike-through text denoting words to be deleted and underlined text denoting words to be added.

5.1 Affordable/Workforce Housing Units.

(b) Notwithstanding the foregoing, the final mix of
Affordable/Workforce Housing units in any given affordability category may vary, but in no event shall less than three (3) units be occupied by Very Low Income Households, and

7.A
Packet Pg. 112
no greater than thirteen (13) units be occupied by Moderate Income Households, nor shall more than fifteen (15) units be occupied by households between 80% and 120% of AMI. (c) Developer shall provide approximately five (5) eighteen (18) one-bedroom dwelling units, nine (9) twenty-four (24) two-bedroom dwelling units, and sixteen (16) eleven (11) three-bedroom dwelling units within the Affordable/Workforce Housing. Notwithstanding the foregoing, Developer shall have the right to construct at least eight (8) three-bedroom dwelling units within the Affordable/Workforce Housing. (d) Developer or developer's successor in interest with respect to the parcel or parcels on which the Affordable/Workforce Housing is to be located shall enter into an “Affordable Housing Agreement” with City setting forth its obligations to provide and maintain the Affordable/Workforce Housing units for a term of 55 years. The Affordable Housing Agreement shall be executed by Developer or developer's successor in interest with respect to the portion of the Property containing the Affordable/Workforce Housing units and be recorded against such portion of the Property containing the Affordable/Workforce Housing units prior to City issuance of a final certificate of occupancy for the hotel. The Affordable Housing Agreement shall be assignable to and assumable by the owner and operator of the Affordable/Workforce Housing units, and all portions of the Property except for the parcel containing the Affordable/Workforce Housing units shall be released from the City shall release the Affordable Housing Agreement from the Property except for the parcel containing the Affordable/Workforce Housing units upon the first to occur of (i) issuance of a final certificate of occupancy for the Affordable/Workforce Housing units or (ii) delivery to City of a completion issuance of a completion guaranty pursuant to Section 5.5(a) of this Agreement, whichever is earlier. After satisfaction of the earliest to occur of such conditions, and upon request of Developer or its successor, City will provide a release in recordable form from the obligations of the Affordable Housing Agreement with respect to those portions of the Property no longer subject to such obligations and authorize recordation thereof in the Official Records.

5.2 Middle Income Housing Units.
(a) Developer shall cause construction of a minimum of fifty (50) twenty-four (24) units of Middle Income Housing within the Project, which shall be made available at an affordable rent to households with moderate and middle incomes Middle Income Households, as follows:
(i) Twenty-four (24) dwelling units shall be made available for occupancy at an affordable rent, adjusted for household size, to Moderate Middle Income Households.
(i) Twenty one (21) dwelling units shall be made available for occupancy at an affordable rent, adjusted for household size, to Middle Income Households.
(ii) Five (5) live-work units shall be made available for occupancy at an affordable rent, adjusted for household size, to Middle Income Households.

7.A
Packet Pg. 113
(b) Developer shall provide fifteen (15) studio dwelling units, sixteen (16) one-bedroom dwelling units, fourteen (14) two-bedroom dwelling units, and five (5) livework dwelling units of approximately 1,000 square feet per unit within the Middle Income Housing.
(cb) The Middle Income Housing will require Growth Management Ordinance (“GMO”) Category C allocations. If the GMO is modified in the future to allow units sold at an affordable sales price to Middle Income Households to qualify for Category C allocations, Developer may, in its sole discretion, develop the Middle Income Housing for sale rather than for rent at an affordable sales price to Middle Income Households. (c) Developer or its successor in interest shall enter into a “Middle Income Housing Agreement” with City setting forth its obligations to provide and maintain the Middle Income Housing units for a term of 55 years. The regulatory agreement shall meet any applicable requirements of the GMO Policies and Procedures as may be amended, or applicable new GMO policies and procedures that may be adopted, by the City Council specifically for Middle Income Housing units that do not otherwise conflict with the terms of this Agreement. The Middle Income Housing Agreement shall be executed by Developer or its successor in interest with respect to the portion of the Property containing the Middle Income Housing units and be recorded against such portion of the Property containing the Middle Income Housing units prior to City issuance of a final certificate of occupancy for the hotel. The Middle Income Housing Agreement shall be assignable to and assumable by the owner and operator of the Middle Income Housing units, and City shall release the Middle Income Housing Agreement from all portions of the Property except for the parcel containing the Middle Income Housing units shall be released from the Middle Income Housing Agreement upon the first to occur of (i) issuance of a final certificate of occupancy for the last Middle Income Housing units to be constructed or (ii) delivery to City of a completion issuance of a guaranty pursuant to Section 5.5(a) of this Agreement, whichever is earlier. After satisfaction of the earliest to occur of such conditions, upon request of Developer or its successor, City will provide a release in recordable form from the obligations of the Middle Income Housing Agreement with respect to those portions of the Property no longer subject to such obligations, and authorize recordation thereof in the Official Records.

In addition to the modifications noted above, the 4th DA Amendment includes the following minor changes:
▪ Recital E in the DA is modified to reflect the changes to the mix and affordability levels for the Affordable/Workforce and Middle Income housing. ▪ Section 5.4(c) is updated to clarify that the obligations of the Senior Living Community Affordable Housing Agreement have been assigned to Kendal at Sonoma as the owner and operator of the Senior Living Community.
▪ Section 5.5(a) is modified to refer to the form of the completion guaranty attached to the 4th DA Amendment and to cross-reference other sections that reference the guaranty.

Summary of Changes to Unit Count and Affordability Levels

7.A
Packet Pg. 114
As shown on the following tables, the 4th DA Amendment would deepen the affordability levels for the North Village project by increasing the number of Low- and Very Low-Income units and decreasing the number of Moderate- and Middle-Income Units. The number of Middle-Income units (i.e., the Category C units) would be decreased from 26 to 24 units and, overall, the sitewide number of units would decrease by 3 units.

Context for Proposed 4th DA Amendment
The original plans for the North Village Project as embodied in the Master CUP and DA envisioned 30 multi-family apartment units on Parcel 2 and 50 multi-family apartment units in a mixed use development on Parcel 4. In 2020, Comstock and Burbank teamed up to develop an affordable housing project on Parcel 2. Burbank applied for tax credit financing for a 36-unit affordable housing project and the application was unsuccessful. In 2021, Burbank applied for tax credit financing for a 53-unit affordable housing project on Parcel 4. That application was also unsuccessful. Burbank and Comstock are now planning to fund a proposed affordable housing project on Parcel 4 through the issuance of tax-exempt revenue bonds through the California Municipal Finance Authority (CFMA) Joint Powers Authority. This funding source requires that 75% of the units be affordable to very low- and low-income households. The remaining 25% of the units may be targeted to moderate-income households.

Comstock and Burbank are seeking flexibility in the number of units in each affordability category in order for the mix to be tailored to revenue requirements and market conditions. As set forth in the proposed 4th DA Amendment, the proposed affordability mix for the 53-unit project on Parcel 4 would include:

7.A
Packet Pg. 115
▪ approximately 10 units to be restricted to Very Low-Income households (at or below 50% AMI)
▪ approximately 42 units to be restricted to Low- and Moderate-Income households (50-120% AMI).
▪ 1 unit (the manager's unit) to be restricted as Moderate-Income (80-120% AMI)
▪ Of the total 53 units - at least 3 units must be Very Low-Income and no more than 13 units may be Moderate-Income.

The DA Amendment would require that 24 Middle-Income housing units (120-160% AMI) be developed within the Project. Comstock proposes to construct the Middle-Income units on Parcel

2. Plans for the Parcel 2 project are currently in the City's development review process. The proposed plans include 24 "for sale" townhome units in three buildings with attached two-car garages for each unit.

The DA Amendment would result in a net reduction of 3 units in the total amount of housing on the North Village site. The DA currently requires a total of 301 units and the 4th DA Amendment would result in 298 units.

The following table from the City of Healdsburg's draft Housing Element Update (6th Cycle) presents a strategy for addressing the City's Regional Housing Needs Allocation (RHNA), which incorporates North Village Project development at the approved affordability levels. As shown, the RHNA identifies the greatest unmet housing needs as in the Very Low, Low-, and Above Moderate-Income categories, all of which would be addressed by proposed housing on Parcels 2 and 4 of the North Village Project and the modifications included in the 4th DA Amendment.

The modifications to the affordability mix as proposed in the 4th DA Amendment have a minimal effect on the City's ability to meet its 6th Cycle Regional Housing Needs Allocation as demonstrated by the chart above. However, the North Village affordable housing project, as a whole, is critical in meeting our State mandated housing goals. While RHNA may not be a true

7.A
Packet Pg. 116
reflection of the City's total housing needs, it plays an important role in ensuring the City can access funding, and accommodating the RHNA is required for the City to remain in compliance with housing element law. The increase in the Very-Low to Low Income units will provide rents affordable to a family of four making between $59,400 to $95,050 a year and for individuals making between $41,600 and $66,500 a year. With the average salary for a hotel worker in Healdsburg currently at $48,036, these units will be in high demand and fit a market need.

Planning Commission Recommendation:

On February 28, 2023, the Planning Commission conducted a public hearing on the 4th DA Amendment and related entitlements. The Planning Commission adopted a resolution recommending that the City Council approve the 4th DA Amendment. They also approved the other requested entitlements subject to the City Council's approval of the 4th DA Amendment.

Attachment 3 presents the Planning Commission staff report for the February 28, 2023 hearing on the 4th DA Amendment and Attachment 4 presents the draft minutes of the Planning Commission meeting. Attachment 5 presents Planning Commission Resolution No. 2023-04 recommending that the City Council adopt an ordinance approving the 4th DA Amendment (DA 2020-01.04) based on the following findings:

A. The Development Agreement and its Fourth Amendment are consistent with the Healdsburg 2030 General Plan, the North Entry Area Plan, and the Land Use Code. The City Council made findings of consistency in its action to adopt Ordinance No. 1202, approving the Development Agreement, and the Fourth Amendment does not modify the Development Agreement in any way that would conflict with the goals and policies of the Healdsburg 2030 General Plan and the North Entry Area Plan, and requirements of the City's Land Use Code.

B. The Development Agreement and its Fourth Amendment will provide Healdsburg with tangible benefits including: 107 units of Affordable and Middle Income Housing; a $2,000,000 contribution for construction of a Fire Substation; contribution of $250,000 to the City for connectivity improvements; annual payments to the City of approximately $334,000 per year from the Senior Living Community for lost tax revenue and increased demands for services; remittance of a 1/2% Hotel Add-On Fee (beginning 10 years after issuance of a certificate of occupancy for the hotel); and other improvements.

C. Any environmental impacts related to the Development Agreement have been reviewed and considered in accordance with the provisions of the California Environmental Quality Act.

On May 20, 2019, the City Council certified the Final Environmental Impact Report ("EIR") for the North Entry Area Plan (State Clearinghouse No. 2018062041) and adopted related findings, a Mitigation Monitoring and Reporting Program, and a Statement of Overriding Considerations. An Addendum to the NEAP EIR ("Addendum") was prepared pursuant to Public Resources Code section 21166 and CEQA Guidelines section 15164, to document the City’s review of subsequent entitlements for the North Village project. As explained in the Addendum, the City determined that the North Village Project did not warrant preparation of a subsequent or supplemental EIR as the Project involved no new significant environmental effects and would not result in a substantial increase in the severity of previously identified significant effects. The EIR and Addendum can be found in the Planning Department’s files for the North Village Project at 401 Grove Street, Healdsburg, CA 95448. In accordance with the California Environment Quality Act (CEQA) Guidelines Section 15162, no further environmental review is required for the

7.A
Packet Pg. 117
Fourth Amendment because (i) there are no changes involving new significant environmental effects or a substantial increase in the severity of previously identified significant effects/impacts, (ii) there are no changes with respect to the circumstances under which the project is taken which will require major revisions to the EIR due to the involvement of new significant environmental effects or a substantial increase in the severity of previously identified significant effects/impacts, and (iii) there is no new information of substantial importance that was not known at the time the EIR was certified which shows (a) the project will have one or more significant effects not discussed in the EIR, (b) significant impacts/effects will be substantially more severe than shown in the EIR, (c) mitigation measures or alternatives previously found not to be feasible would in fact be feasible and would substantially reduce one or more significant effects/impacts, or (d) mitigation measures or alternatives which are considerably different from those analyzed in the EIR would substantially reduce one or more significant effects/impacts on the environment.

ENVIRONMENTAL STEWARDSHIP:

The environmental effects of the North Village Project were evaluated at a programmatic level in the NEAP EIR and at a project-specific level in an Addendum to the EIR. All development on the North Village site is subject to a Mitigation Monitoring and Reporting Program ("MMRP") that was prepared for the NEAP EIR.

ALTERNATIVES:

1. Recommended actions: introduce for first reading and waive full reading of text of ordinance approving Fourth Amendment to the Development Agreement for the North Village Project (DA 2020-01.04).

2. Incorporate specific modifications into the ordinance prior to taking Council action. Note:
depending on the substance of such changes, the ordinance may need to be sent back to the Planning Commission for review prior to Council action.

3. Defer action on the ordinance and direct staff to provide additional information and/or analysis to help inform City Council action(s).

FISCAL IMPACT:

The North Village Project is a privately funded development. The project will generate property and sales tax revenues which will help to offset the City's costs of providing services to the project.

ENVIRONMENTAL ANALYSIS:

During the NEAP planning process, an Environmental Impact Report ("NEAP EIR") was prepared to analyze the potential project and cumulative environmental impacts associated with future development under the NEAP (State Clearinghouse No. 2018062041). The NEAP EIR found that, with the implementation of mitigation measures identified in the EIR, all significant impacts could be reduced to a less than significant level except for the traffic impacts and safety hazards at the U.S. 101/Dry Creek Road intersection and the Dry Creek Road/Grove Street intersection. These impacts were identified as significant unavoidable adverse impacts and pursuant to CEQA Guidelines section 15083, a Statement of Overriding Considerations was adopted as part of the City Council resolution certifying the NEAP EIR. On May 20, 2019, the

7.A
Packet Pg. 118
City Council certified the NEAP EIR and adopted a Mitigation Monitoring and Reporting Program ("NEAP MMRP") to ensure implementation of mitigation measures identified in the EIR.

An Addendum to the NEAP EIR was prepared pursuant to Public Resources Code section 21166 and CEQA Guidelines section 15164, to document the City’s review of subsequent entitlements for the North Village project. As explained in the Addendum, the City determined that the North Village Project did not warrant preparation of a new subsequent or supplemental EIR as the Project involved no new significant environmental effects and would not result in a substantial increase in the severity of previously identified significant effects.

For the 4th DA Amendment, the City has identified the following applicable CEQA streamlining and/or tiering code sections, each of which, separately and independently, provides a basis for the project’s CEQA compliance:

A. A Community Plan Exemption, pursuant to Public Resources Code section 21083.3 and CEQA Guidelines section 15183;
B. Reliance on the NEAP EIR as a Program EIR, pursuant to CEQA Guidelines section 15168.

Based on an examination of the analysis, findings, and conclusions of the NEAP EIR and Addendum, the potential impacts of the proposed North Village Project with adoption of the 4th DA Amendment remain within the impacts previously analyzed and disclosed in the NEAP EIR and its Addendum. Moreover, none of the circumstances described in CEQA Guidelines section 15162 that require subsequent or supplemental environmental review have occurred. Therefore, per CEQA Guidelines sections 15162, 15164, 15168 and 15183 no further analysis is required under CEQA before taking action on the 4th DA Amendment for the North Village Project.
