CITY OF HEALDSBURG
CITY COUNCIL AGENDA STAFF REPORT
MEETING DATE: January 21, 2025
SUBJECT: Conditionally award the Construction Contract for the Healdsburg Fire Station Reroofing Project
PREPARED BY: Tyler Kettmann, Central Services Manager
STRATEGIC INITIATIVE(S):
Infrastructure & Facilities
Maintain and Improve Infrastructure and Facilities
RECOMMENDED ACTION(S):
Adopt a Resolution conditionally awarding the Healdsburg Fire Station 2024 Reroofing Project to Contract West Roofing, Inc., for an amount not to exceed $147,000; authorizing the City Manager to execute the agreement and related change orders up to 5% of the original agreement amount; and amending the adopted FY 2024-2025 budget.
COMMUNITY ENGAGEMENT/OUTREACH:
The Healdsburg Fire Station 2024 Reroofing Project was advertised to the public in the Santa Rosa Press Democrat on October 17, 2024, and October 22, 2024. It was also posted on the City’s website. Staff conducted a pre-bid meeting on October 29, 2024, followed by a tour of the facility.
BACKGROUND:
The Fire Station was built in 1991, and the current roof consists of a pitched metal roof and a flat built-up roof membrane with a silicone coating. In 2019 staff identified deficiencies with the flat built-up roof membrane and plans and specifications for repairs were drafted and sent out to the public for bids in March 2019. At the project pre-bid meeting, a roofing company suggested that instead of tearing into the entire roof, of which 90% was still in good condition, an alternate repair was feasible. The alternate proposed repairs would include removing any damaged areas, overlapping the repaired areas with the existing metal roof, and applying a silicone coating. The City proceeded with the proposed alternative repairs due to the expectation of a 15-year warranty on the work and the large cost savings of the reduced scope of work. In 2019 the temporary roof repair was made by applying a new silicone coating to the failing flat built-up roof membrane.
6.A
Packet Pg. 7
Staff have identified continued deficiencies with the roof at the Fire Station. The silicone coating has failed in several areas in recent years, causing more leaks to appear inside the building.
Attempts to collect the repair warranty have been unsuccessful due to the original underlying issues with the roof. The cause of the leaks stems from the termination point between the metal pitched roof and the built-up membrane/silicone flat roof. During storms, rainwater intrudes into failures at this termination point. Staff determined there was a need to have an architect review the findings and design a solution.
DISCUSSION/ANALYSIS:
In September 2024, City staff engaged Don Alameida of Alameida Architecture to assist in accomplishing the goal of replacing the membrane flat roof with a more long-term solution, while still maintaining the existing metal pitched roof structure which remains in relatively good condition. The design costs for the plans and specifications totaled $18,600.
The Healdsburg Fire Station Reroofing project includes replacement of built-up roofing with thermoplastic polyolefin (TPO) single ply membrane roofing. The new TPO roof will extend a minimum of 2 ft underneath the pitched metal roof, further bolstering the integrity of the joint where the two roof components meet.
The City advertised the Healdsburg Fire Station Reroofing project for construction consistent with the Healdsburg Municipal Code. Bids were opened on November 19, 2024. At the bid opening, two bids were received: Stronger Building Services with a base bid of $345,000; and Contract West Roofing Inc. with a base bid of $147,700. Staff found both bids to be responsive.
The apparent low bidder is Contract West Roofing Inc. Staff recommend City Council conditionally award the project to Contract West Roofing Inc. and authorize the City Manager to execute the construction contract and related change orders up to 5% of the base bid price on behalf of the City.
The proposed cost is $147,700. Staff is requesting a 5% contingency of $7,385 for unforeseen issues. The design costs are $18,600. Permit and bidding costs are estimated at an additional $5,000, bringing the total projected costs for completion to $178,685.
ALTERNATIVES:
The Council could choose not to adopt the recommended resolution to appropriate additional funding. If that action is taken staff would ask Council to provide additional direction.
FISCAL IMPACT:
The total estimated cost of the proposed project is $178,685 including design, permitting, and construction costs. The adopted fiscal year 2024-25 budget has $125,000 allocated in the Building Maintenance Fund for the fire station reroofing project funded by current year internal service fees paid by the fire department. The Building Maintenance Fund appropriations and the internal service fees paid by the fire department budget in the General Fund for FY 2024-25 are proposed to increase by $53,685 to cover the additional costs of the roof replacement.

ENVIRONMENTAL ANALYSIS:
The scope of work for this project is exempt from the provisions of the California Environmental Quality Act (“CEQA”) pursuant to Title 14, the California Code of Regulations, Section 15301 (e), projects which have been determined not to have a significant effect on the environment.

Attachment: Resolution (4691 : Healdsburg Fire Station 2024 Reroofing Project) Resolution No. -2025
NOW, THEREFORE, BE IT RESOLVED that the City Council of the City of Healdsburg hereby:
1. Finds that the proposed action is exempt from CEQA pursuant to CEQA Guidelines section 15301 (Existing Facilities) because it only involves the repair, maintenance and minor alteration of an existing structure (the Fire Station), involving negligible or no expansion of existing or former use. Further, the action falls squarely within the example provided by Section 15301(d) as the action only comprises the reroofing of the existing Fire Station’s deteriorated and damaged roof to meet current standards of public health and safety.
2. Conditionally award the construction contract for the Healdsburg Fire Station 2024 Reroofing Project to the apparent lowest responsive, responsible bidder Contract West Roofing, Inc., for a not to exceed amount of $147,000.
3. Authorize the City Manager to execute the contract on the City’s behalf and approve project change orders up to 5% of the original not to exceed contract amount equal to $7,385.
4. Approve amending the Fiscal Year 2024-25 budget as depicted on the attached Exhibit A.

CITY COUNCIL AGENDA STAFF REPORT
MEETING DATE: January 21, 2025
SUBJECT: Public Utility Easement across 50 Front Street, APN 002-321-001 PREPARED BY: Terry Crowley, Utilities Director
STRATEGIC INITIATIVE(S):
Maintain and Improve Infrastructure and Facilities
RECOMMENDED ACTION(S):
Adopt a Resolution accepting a Public Utility Easement from Cuneo Soracco Properties LLC, at 50 Front Street, APN 002-321-001.
COMMUNITY ENGAGEMENT/OUTREACH:
Not applicable.
BACKGROUND:
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:
As exists, 50 Front Street is served by a single City owned pad-mounted transformer, a wood utility pole, and underground cables. Each of these facilities currently exists on private property without the benefit of a formal public utility easement. Rather land rights have been established, over time, through what is known as prescriptive rights. An adjacent property, 68 Front Street, would like to expand and needs additional transformer capacity. Rather than place a new transformer on the adjacent property, city staff proposed rearranging the existing transformer closer to the north and western property lines of 50 Front Street. This rearrangement allows better utilization of the existing transformer, removal of one wood utility pole, and removal of one span of overhead wire located at 50 Front Street. To allow for the rearrangement of utility equipment a public utility easement is required from the owners of 50 Front Street.
City staff approached the owners of 50 Front Street (APN 002-321-001) to discuss the proposed
6.B
Packet Pg. 13
work and rearrangement of existing utility equipment. The owners, Cuneo Soracco Properties LLC, are agreeable and willing to provide the City a public utility easement over their lands.
The recommended resolution accepts the dedication of this public utility easement over a portion of the named property, authorizes the City Manager to certify the acceptance of the easement, and directs staff to record the public utility easements with the Sonoma County Recorder’s office.
ENVIRONMENTAL STEWARDSHIP:
The acceptance of a public utility easement does not contain a component of environmental stewardship.
ALTERNATIVES:
The City Council could choose to reject the offer of dedication and provide further direction to staff. Staff does not recommend this alternative as without the dedication of an easement the City may not be able to efficiently and cost effectively provide utility services to adjacent properties.
Additionally, directing staff to record the easement with the County allows the easement to appear on title reports informing subsequent buyers of the public utility easement.
FISCAL IMPACT:
There is no fiscal impact for the City related to the proposed action. The work performed by the City, related to the expansion and development of 68 Front Street, will be reimbursed by the developer and the PUE across private lands is therefore 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 OF HEALDSBURG
CITY COUNCIL AGENDA STAFF REPORT
MEETING DATE: January 21, 2025
SUBJECT: Adoption of the Healdsburg Active Transportation Plan PREPARED BY: Michael Harrigan, Project Manager
STRATEGIC INITIATIVE(S):
Establish Proactive Policies/Programs to Continue to Promote Economic Diversity & Sustainable Growth
Maintain and Improve Infrastructure and Facilities
Maintain and Enhance Public Health and Safety
RECOMMENDED ACTION(S):
Adopt a Resolution of the City Council of the City of Healdsburg adopting the Healdsburg Active Transportation Plan.
COMMUNITY ENGAGEMENT/OUTREACH:
Initial outreach for the Healdsburg Active Transportation Plan (ATP) began in Fall 2023. In collaboration with City staff, participating jurisdictions, and the Sonoma County Transportation Authority (SCTA), the Countywide ATP project team developed Stakeholder Coordination and Community Engagement Plans to guide outreach and milestone presentations. Detailed engagement strategies and outcomes are documented in the 2025 Countywide ATP.
To ensure local input, the City formed the Active Transportation Advisory Committee, bridging the project team, stakeholders, and the community. Selected in June 2023, committee members represented diverse perspectives and actively contributed during two milestone meetings and many other discussions, shaping the draft Healdsburg ATP. The project team also reviewed comments from the City's Local Road Safety Plan to address existing concerns.
Outreach events began with a booth at the Housing Resources Fair in October 2023, followed by a pop-up at CraftWork Healdsburg. An online survey and interactive map launched in October 2023 received 95 comments, with 94 more gathered from in-person events. Feedback emphasized the need for more bike lanes, protected paths, crosswalk improvements, sidewalk gap closures, and traffic-calming measures, particularly near schools. Additional concerns included enhancing pathway safety, improving access to Plaza Park, expanding Safe Routes to School, and integrating active transportation with future development.
8.A
Packet Pg. 55
The draft vision, goals, and project list were presented to the Active Transportation Advisory Committee in April 2024, with additional input collected at the Earth Day Climate Fest. In June 2024, an open house at the Healdsburg Community Center showcased draft projects and recommendations, providing another opportunity for community feedback.
On October 7, 2024, City staff presented the draft ATP to the City Council, inviting input from councilmembers and the public. Following the presentation, staff conducted targeted outreach in October, including meetings with the Hispanic community at three multi-family low-income housing sites (as part of Community Night Out) and hosting a booth at the Día de los Muertos Festival on October 27, 2024. From October 7 through November 30, 2024, the public was encouraged to provide feedback on the draft ATP through the City’s website and SCTA’s online portal. Additionally, staff presented the draft ATP to the Planning Commission on November 12 and the Senior Advisory Commission on November 20 to gather further input.
Feedback from the public, councilmembers, and commissioners highlighted several key themes across project-related, policy-related, and implementation-related areas.
Project-Related Feedback:
There were numerous requests for additional downtown bike parking and improved facilities.
Suggestions focused on enhancing pedestrian and bike safety at key intersections through crossing improvements and green bike lane markings. Some feedback recommended upgrading planned bike boulevards to buffered bike lanes for greater safety. Connectivity improvements around the future planned SMART Train Station were also emphasized, including the addition of a mobility hub. Additionally, there was a request for clarification on responsibility for the northern extension of the Foss Creek Pathway.
Policy-Related Feedback:
Many participants emphasized the importance of accessibility improvements for older adults and residents with disabilities. There was strong support for enhancing Safe Routes to Schools and related infrastructure. Some feedback suggested aligning the Active Transportation Plan the Climate Mobilization Strategy’s greenhouse gas reduction goals and collecting baseline data to track progress over time.
Implementation-Related Feedback:
There were calls for quick-build strategies to expedite project delivery and a desire for clearer project prioritization and measurable goals to evaluate progress. Stakeholders also expressed a preference for SMART (Specific, Measurable, Achievable, Relevant, Time-Bound) goals to track project outcomes. Finally, there were suggestions for greater transparency in project selection and prioritization processes to build trust and accountability.
BACKGROUND:
The Healdsburg ATP is being developed to update and expand the City’s previous 2013 Bicycle and Pedestrian Master Plan. The updated Plan aligns with SCTA’s Comprehensive Transportation Plan, Moving Forward 2050, and aims to create a connected, safe, and accessible network for people of all ages and abilities to walk, bike, and roll for everyday transportation and

Packet Pg. 56
recreation.
The vision and goals for the Healdsburg ATP were developed with input from SCTA’s Countywide Bicycle and Pedestrian Advisory Committee, the Healdsburg Active Transportation Plan Advisory Committee, and other regional stakeholders. The vision statement for the Plan is as follows:
“Our guiding principles are to improve safety, connectivity, equity, and quality of life. The transportation system shall be safe and inviting for people of all ages and abilities to walk, bike, and roll for everyday transportation and recreation, by providing a continuous and interconnected active transportation network linking daily activities and housing, and supported by programs and policies that encourage walking, biking, and rolling.” The Plan’s goals are structured around three key themes:
1. Connected and Reliable – Deliver a continuous active transportation network that enables people of all ages and abilities to use a variety of transportation modes easily, affordably, and dependably.
2. Safe and Well-Maintained – Develop and maintain a high-quality and low-stress active transportation network. Implement Vision Zero and Local Roadway Safety Plan strategies to enhance safety and reduce traffic-related injuries and fatalities.
3. Community Oriented and Place-Based – Tailor projects to the unique needs of urban, suburban, and rural communities, supporting a diversity of users and fostering a sense of community through active transportation infrastructure.
The primary objectives of the Plan Update are:
• All Ages & Abilities: Create low-stress and low-risk spaces for walking, biking, and rolling, expanding opportunities for more people to use active transportation modes. • Regional Connection: Identify and plan for regional routes between jurisdictions as part of the larger Countywide ATP.
• Streamlined Implementation: Prioritize projects and identify funding sources to facilitate focused and efficient implementation.
DISCUSSION/ANALYSIS:
The Healdsburg ATP proposes a comprehensive set of projects and updated policies to improve conditions for walking, biking, and rolling throughout the City. It outlines infrastructure projects and policies aimed at enhancing safety, connectivity, and accessibility for all users.
Proposed Projects:
The ATP uses a prioritization scheme to categorize projects into three tiers based on factors such as safety, equity, proximity to schools and transit, and the potential to close gaps in the lowstress network. This approach helps the city focus on high-priority projects (Tier 1) while considering medium (Tier 2) and lower priority projects (Tier 3) as funding and opportunities arise.
8.A
Packet Pg. 57
The ATP highlights existing conditions through maps, including the Existing Bicycle Network, Existing Sidewalk Gaps, Level of Traffic Stress (LTS), and the 2022 High Injury Network (HIN). LTS evaluates roadways based on factors like lane number, speed limits, and bikeway facilities, aiming to identify opportunities to create lower-stress networks for all users. The HIN identifies road segments with elevated crash risks, guiding safety improvements.
Proposed projects are shown on a Bikeway and Corridor Project Map, categorizing projects by class. For instance, some streets may become Class IIIb bike boulevards with shared bike and car use or reconfigured into Class IIb buffered bike lanes by removing parking on one side, creating designated space for cyclists. Additionally, the Plan features a Proposed Sidewalk and Crossing Improvements Map and overlays planned infrastructure on existing network maps for a comprehensive view.
Updated Policies:
The ATP incorporates policies to support network implementation and maintenance, emphasizing active transportation in future developments, promoting safe design standards, and encouraging community education and engagement.
Prioritization Criteria:
The ATP uses multiple criteria to ensure projects align with community needs and safety goals.
Factors include safety (e.g., proximity to high-injury network segments), equity (improving access for underserved populations), proximity to transit and schools, and low-stress gap closure.
Projects are scored based on these criteria and categorized into tiers, allowing flexibility in project selection as opportunities and circumstances evolve.
Extensive feedback was received through the public engagement process, leading to several revisions and refinements of the ATP. The key revisions below were based on feedback from the City Council presentation on October 7, 2024, the Planning Commission presentation on November 12, 2024, the Senior Advisory Commission presentation on November 20, 2024, and public comments.
Several key revisions have been made to the Healdsburg Active Transportation Plan (ATP) based on recent feedback, encompassing project-related, policy-related, and implementationrelated updates.
Project-Related Revisions:
To enhance the downtown area, three additional bike racks were added, and a downtown bike parking project was included in the ATP. Improvements to key intersections, such as March/Lupine, Matheson/Fitch, and Grant/Healdsburg, were also incorporated to enhance pedestrian and cyclist safety. The use of green paint at intersections has been integrated into the ATP Engineering Toolbox, with specific applications to be addressed during project design phases. Language was added to allow for Grant and Powell Street bike boulevards to be converted into buffered bike lanes if on-street parking is removed. Additionally, a mobility hub project was included to improve transit integration at the SMART Train Station.

Policy updates now emphasize the use of cost-effective temporary materials through quick-build implementation to expedite project delivery. Language addressing accessibility for older adults and residents with disabilities was refined, prioritizing sidewalk improvements near senior residences and high-use areas. Policies related to Safe Routes to Schools were also updated, emphasizing the importance of student safety.
Implementation-Related Revisions:
Additional details related to funding have been provided to offer a clearer path forward. Initial implementation steps that City staff can undertake were identified to ensure progress.
Furthermore, an appendix detailing the project prioritization scheme and scoring process was added to improve transparency and clarity for stakeholders.
These revisions reflect a commitment to creating a more inclusive, accessible, and actionable Active Transportation Plan for Healdsburg.
Upcoming Schedule and next Steps:
Upon adoption, staff will initiate the process to amend the General Plan by replacing references to the Healdsburg Bicycle and Pedestrian Plan with the Healdsburg Active Transportation Plan (ATP), bringing the amendment to the Planning Commission for consideration. Additionally, staff will begin integrating the ATP’s projects and policies into City operations while actively pursuing funding opportunities to support its implementation.
ENVIRONMENTAL STEWARDSHIP:
The Healdsburg Active Transportation Plan supports environmental stewardship by promoting sustainable modes of transportation that reduce greenhouse gas emissions and improve air quality. By encouraging walking, biking, and rolling as viable alternatives to driving, the ATP contributes to reducing the community's carbon footprint. Proposed infrastructure projects, such as expanding the bike network and closing sidewalk gaps, aim to create a safer and more connected environment for non-motorized travel, further supporting the City’s sustainability goals.
Additionally, the ATP aligns with the City’s commitment to climate action and resilience by integrating active transportation into the broader vision of a sustainable urban environment.
Implementing these projects will not only enhance mobility and accessibility for residents of all ages and abilities but also contribute to long-term environmental benefits, such as reduced traffic congestion, lower vehicle emissions, and improved public health outcomes. These efforts are in line with regional sustainability targets set forth in the Sonoma County Climate Action Plan and the Vision Zero initiative.
Through these strategic investments in active transportation infrastructure, the ATP fosters a culture of environmental responsibility and encourages residents and visitors alike to choose more sustainable and active forms of transportation.
ALTERNATIVES:
City Council may choose to provide additional direction to staff on revisions to the Healdsburg
8.A
Packet Pg. 59
Active Transportation Plan to address concerns and defer adoption until a revised draft is presented for consideration.
FISCAL IMPACT:
The Active Transportation Plan was primarily developed through a grant awarded to the SCTA and a $7,000 local match from the City of Healdsburg. The ATP is a planning document that includes high level cost estimates of the identified project types prioritized by tier. However, the estimates do not include soft costs associated with construction projects like design, environmental review, or permitting. The estimated base construction cost of all projects identified in the plan total $70.1 million, with the highest priority Tier 1 projects estimated at $29.1 million. The ATP further identifies potential regional and federal funding sources that may be leveraged to expand the limited available City funding. The ATP will function as a guiding document when applying for grants, preparing the Five-Year Capital Improvement Plan, and prioritizing projects during the biennial budget process.
ENVIRONMENTAL ANALYSIS:
The project is categorically exempt under CEQA Guidelines Section 15262 (Feasibility and Planning Studies). This exemption applies to plans such as the ATP that do not involve binding commitments or approval of physical projects. Future actions or projects implementing the plan will require CEQA review.

The 2025 Healdsburg Active Transportation
Plan (ATP) was developed as a component
of the Sonoma County Transportation
Authority‘s (SCTA’s) 2025 Countywide Active
Transportation Plan (Countywide ATP)
effort. This plan focuses on improving active
transportation connections within the city,
implementing Sonoma County’s Safe
Routes to Schools Program, and creating
low-stress connections to surrounding
jurisdictions. The Healdsburg ATP is also a
stand-alone document the City of
Healdsburg can use to guide
implementation of local projects
and policies.
The primary emphasis of this planning effort
is to increase access to active transportation
modes by planning for infrastructure projects
and identifying supportive policies. Active
transportation refers to “human-powered”
modes of travel like walking, biking, or using
mobility devices. Creating an environment
that encourages a shift from automobile trips
to walking or biking trips also promotes
improvements to mental and physical health,
air quality, reduces noise, and improves
social equity. A safer and more connected
network gives members of the community
flexibility in their travel, so they do not need to
rely on a personal vehicle to travel throughout
the city and larger region.
Projects are prioritized based on the needs
highlighted by the community and city staff.
The City of Healdsburg is committed to
coordinating with SCTA and participating in
relevant countywide active
transportation programs.
The previous Healdsburg Bicycle and
Pedestrian Master Plan (BPMP) adopted in
2013 identified a general expansion of
walking and biking facilities. Since the 2013
BPMP was updated, several changes and
advancements have been made in the state
of active transportation planning practices.
For example, SCTA adopted Vision Zero in
2021, which is a regional commitment to
eliminate traffic fatalities and serious
injuries through engineering, programs,
policies, and education. The City of
Healdsburg subsequently adopted the
Vision Zero Action Plan locally. There have
also been policy changes at the national and
state level acknowledging a greater need for
more robust infrastructure, programs, and
policies to make walking and biking safer.
With those and other similar advancements
in mind, this plan focuses on:
• All Ages and Abilities – Creating
spaces for people to walk, bike, and
roll that are low-stress and lower risk,
with a focus on implementing a Safe
Routes to School Program to
encourage children and families to
walk, bike, and roll.
• Regional Coordination – Identifying
and planning regional routes between
jurisdictions as part of the larger
Countywide ATP.
• Implementation – Prioritizing projects
to assist in identifying funding for
implementation.
Low-stress network analysis was used to
identify opportunities to upgrade or enhance
existing and previously planned projects.
The network analysis considered
community and regional destinations, traffic
safety, and gaps in existing facilities to help
inform recommendations for enhanced or
new active transportation improvements.
Community input was gathered to ground
truth and expand findings from the network
analysis to create a robust project list and
supporting policies.

Community Characteristics and Travel Patterns
The City of Healdsburg has a population of approximately 11,4001 and is roughly bound by the Russian River to the east and US 101 to the west. Healdsburg is known for its many wineries, restaurants, and art galleries. Its downtown area is centered around Healdsburg Town Square which features a number of tasting rooms, boutique hotels, locally owned shops, and retailers. An essential component for the Active Transportation Plan includes fostering a pedestrian and bicycle friendly environment along Healdsburg Avenue—the city’s main arterial that connects downtown and runs parallel to US 101—and providing enhanced walking and biking facilities through residential neighborhoods. These improvements would make it easier for people of all ages to walk and bike to schools, parks, the library, and other community amenities and activity centers.
In the past two decades, Healdsburg has experienced steady growth, both in the development of land uses and in the number of people residing within the city. Healdsburg lies at the intersection of three rich agricultural valleys—Russian River Valley, Dry Creek Valley, and Alexander Valley—and is a city with a size, scale, and climate well-suited for walking and biking. Leveraging these assets and investing in new and safe multimodal connections could encourage more users to consider active transportation modes while traveling through the city and region.
Additionally, Healdsburg plays a critical role in greater Sonoma County’s tourism industry, attracting hundreds of thousands of visitors annually as a haven for artisans and craftspeople, world class wines, lodging, and culinary experiences. It is also a popular destination for weddings and business-related travel and meetings. Efforts in 2012 to establish a Healdsburg Tourism Improvement District paid off: in 2022, Healdsburg generated $23.2 million in local and state tax receipts. 2 Individuals who live in Healdsburg represent a range of age, social demographics, and travel to work behavior. Table 1 summarizes some of those characteristics captured through the most recent census data.

Source: https://censusreporter.org/profiles/16000US0633056-healdsburg-ca/ Notes:
1Age is shown in years.
Approximately 57 percent of the city’s population is between the ages of 18 to 64 years old, and 28 percent are 65 and older.3 Creating an environment that accommodates all ages and abilities and makes the first/last mile connections to transit is crucial toward promoting and enabling more walking, biking, and rolling for daily travel needs. Census data indicate four percent of workers currently walk to work, four percent bike or take transit, 63 percent use single occupancy vehicles, eight percent carpool, 21 percent work from home and one percent take other means of transportation to work. Census data also indicates the mean travel time to work is 17.5 minutes.
As the city continues to grow, there is a need for safer, low-stress, and better-connected walking, biking, and rolling facilities.
Road Safety in Healdsburg
Per the California Office of Traffic Safety, as of 2020, Healdsburg is categorized as one of the 103 cities in Group E, cities with a population between 10,001–25,000 people. The city ranked 50 in the total fatal and injury collision category. 4 This indicates that about half of
similar sized cities in California had more fatal and injury collisions than Healdsburg and about half had less. The city’s 2021 Local Roadway Safety Plan (LRSP) evaluated collision data from 2015 through 2019. There were zero fatal and 16 severe injury traffic collisions during that time. There were eight severe injury collisions involving people walking or biking 3 https://censusreporter.org/profiles/16000US0633056-healdsburg-ca/ 4 California Office of Traffic Safety

Related Local Plans
The successful execution of the Healdsburg Active Transportation Plan will require collaboration and alignment with various local plans and projects within the city. These include the Healdsburg 2030 General Plan, the Climate Mobilization Strategy, and the Central Avenue Healdsburg Plan (CHAP). Additionally, enhancement projects such as the Grove Street Neighborhood Plan and Healdsburg Avenue Complete Streets will be instrumental in improving bicycle and pedestrian infrastructure. The following sections provide brief summaries of these essential plans and projects to ensure consistency and effective integration with the ATP.
Healdsburg 2030 General Plan
The Healdsburg 2030 General Plan is the city’s aspirations for the future. It is a comprehensive, long-term document that guides the physical development of the city and land outside the city limits that is in its sphere of influence. The General Plan also identifies the community’s environmental, social and economic goals. The General Plan consists of the Policy Document, including the Land Use Map and the Background Report. The current General Plan was originally adopted by City Council in 2009. It includes amendments through December 2023. The Policy Document includes six core guiding principles that are each further defined by three to eight supporting elements. The core six guiding principles are: (1) Identity; (2) Balance; (3) Mobility; (4) Sustainability; (5) Vitality; and (6) Livability.
The City of Healdsburg’s ATP aligns specifically with the city’s guiding principles 3A and 3B (within Mobility) as well as 6B (within Livability) which read:
3A Promote safe and convenient transportation alternatives.
Transportation alternatives to motor vehicles benefit the environment and public health, while meeting the needs of those unable to drive. Healdsburg’s circulation system will accommodate and encourage all modes of transportation, including pedestrian, bicycle and bus and rail transit. Streets shall be designed to accommodate all modes of transportation where feasible. 3B Promote connectivity among neighborhoods and throughout the city.
Healdsburg’s historic street system is a traditional interconnected grid of narrow streets, on-street parking, street trees, and sidewalks that promotes pedestrian use.
The city will maintain this pattern in existing neighborhoods and encourage connectivity and inclusiveness in new areas of development, including pedestrian and bicycle linkages.
6B Maximize opportunities for active and passive recreation.
The city will work to provide parks, trails and recreation programs to meet the needs of its residents. Development on the northeast side of the city will provide connections to the Healdsburg Ridge Trail, Healdsburg’s bicycle and pedestrian
8.A.b
Packet Pg. 74
Attachment: Healdsburg ATP (4714 : Adoption of Healdsburg ATP) 6 master plan, and access to vantage points and to the Russian River. Development along Foss Creek will provide connections to and extensions of the Foss Creek Pathway where feasible.
Central Healdsburg Avenue Plan
The Central Healdsburg Avenue Special Study Area Committee was created by the City Council to implement a significant program of the 2030 Healdsburg General Plan: prepare an Area Plan for the unique area of Healdsburg Avenue extending north from the US 101 Central Healdsburg Avenue exit to the 5-way intersection of Healdsburg Avenue, Mill Street and Vine Street.
The Central Healdsburg Avenue Plan was completed in 2013. It established a set of guiding principles and a design framework for developing public infrastructure and private investment in the Central Healdsburg Avenue and depot area. The Central Healdsburg Avenue and depot area is generally south of Mill Street and between Highway 101 and the Russian River. The plan supports robust multimodal access to the SMART station and includes station access opportunities. The City of Healdsburg’s ATP is consistent by continuing to identify ways in which walking and biking access and comfort can be improved to/from and within the area.
Climate Mobilization Strategy
In October 2023, the city completed a Climate Mobilization Strategy (CMS). The CMS describes cost effective and impactful efforts the city can implement to address climate change. It describes the city’s current and projected greenhouse gas emissions (GHG) and prioritizes key measures and actions for the city to take. The measures are organized by sector: Building Energy, Transportation, Waste, Water & Wastewater, Carbon Sequestration, and Administration. Within Transportation, there are three measures – each either directly or indirectly support actions that enhance walking, biking and broader active transportation within the city. The projects and policies in the City of Healdsburg’s ATP are consistent with the measures and actions outlined in the CMS.
Grove Street Neighborhood Plan Implementation – Street Enhancements The Grove Street Neighborhood Plan was originally adopted in 2000 and provides guidelines and standards for development along Grove Street, between Dry Creek Road and West Grant Street. Today, the Grove Street neighborhood contains a mixture of uses including senior housing, single family dwellings, multifamily dwellings, affordable housing units, large and boutique hotels, a skate park, and businesses.
Since 2000, many improvements have been constructed through development projects, including a traffic circle. There also remain opportunities to enhance walking and biking through the neighborhood. The Grove Street Neighborhood Plan Implementation – Street Enhancements is a public infrastructure project to construct continuous curb, gutter, and sidewalk to provide safe pedestrian access to all. The project will also include connections to the two enhanced bus stops within project limits. A community meeting was held in March 2024 to help inform the project as it moves towards implementation. The planned projects in
8.A.b
Packet Pg. 75
Attachment: Healdsburg ATP (4714 : Adoption of Healdsburg ATP) 7 the city’s ATP are consistent with the improvements being discussed and advanced as part of this project.
Other Active Projects
Healdsburg Avenue Complete Streets
The city was awarded an Active Transportation Program grant from the Metropolitan Transportation Commission to help fund the construction of separated bike lanes and pedestrian improvements on Healdsburg Avenue from Powell Avenue to the Parkland Farms subdivision. The project was the result of a detailed community engagement process that informed the overall vision and goals of Healdsburg Avenue as well as the ultimate project elements. Construction of the project is expected to be completed in 2028. The planned projects in the city’s ATP are consistent and complement these improvements to Healdsburg Avenue.
US 101/Dry Creek Interchange
In March 2020, the city completed a Feasibility Study Report for the US 101/Dry Creek Interchange. The purpose of the study was to consider potential opportunities to improve conditions for motorists as well as people walking and biking to and through the interchange.
The feasibility study is an initial step in being able to further advance potential improvements in coordination with Caltrans. The projects discussed in the city’s ATP on Dry Creek Road are consistent with the interchange study in that they aim to improve walking and biking experience to and through interchange. Those projects will need to be coordinated with any future US 101/Dry Creek interchange improvements.
Existing Active Transportation Network Characteristics
in Healdsburg
Today, the Foss Creek Pathway provides a popular north-south low stress walking and biking path through much of Healdsburg. The path passes by City Hall and traverses the downtown area a few blocks west of Healdsburg Plaza. There is also a collection of east-west and north-south designated bike routes on residential streets east and north of Healdsburg Avenue. Some of the wider streets in the city such as March Avenue and Parkland Farms have bike lanes. The city’s sidewalk network is largely complete in the downtown area and established residential neighborhoods. The concentration of sidewalk gaps tend to be located closer to city limits, areas with steeper grades, and/or residential areas more rural in character.
There are opportunities to further enhance the active transportation connections to appeal to a broader range of ages and abilities. As noted above, the city is already underway with a complete streets project for Healdsburg Avenue from Powell Avenue to the Parkland Farms subdivision. Other opportunities include creating lower-stress connections between activity centers like Healdsburg Recreation Park and schools throughout the residential neighborhoods northeast and east of downtown. Adding a bike facility along Fitch Street would provide an additional North-South connector to residential areas north of the plaza, closing an existing gap in the bicycle network. An additional low-stress east-west connection
8.A.b
Packet Pg. 76
Attachment: Healdsburg ATP (4714 : Adoption of Healdsburg ATP) 8 along the Matheson Street/S Fitch Mountain Road corridor would benefit recreational uses along the Russian River and beyond. While many of the residential streets appear as potential low stress today, members of the community expressed the need for additional treatments to further slow vehicle speeds and where possible designate space for people biking and walking to enable more people to walk and bike. The following figures illustrate these opportunities.
Figure 1 illustrates the existing bikeway network. The bikeway network is organized into several distinct facility types, detailed below.
• Multi-Use Paths (Class I) are fully separated bike and pedestrian paths. They follow their own alignment, sometimes parallel to a street, waterway, and/or other configuration through open space or undeveloped areas. Interactions with vehicles are limited to street trail crossings.
• Bike Lanes (Class II) are on-street bike facilities that use a white line or stripe (i.e., longitudinal pavement marking) to designate space on the street for bicyclists that is adjacent to a vehicle lane.
• Buffered Bike Lanes (Class IIB) increase space between the bike lane and vehicle travel lane(s) using a painted buffer. The painted buffer is often made up of two parallel white lines with diagonal white lines painted between them. Green pavement markings can be used at driveways or intersections to draw attention to where vehicle paths cross bicyclists’ paths.
• Bike Routes (Class III) are shared facilities between bicyclists and motor vehicles.
Bicyclists ride in the vehicle lane. Bike routes are sometimes used to provide a connection to another bike facility or designated bike route. “Sharrows” (shared-lane markings) may be used to alert motorists to the presence of on-street bicyclists.
Signs may also be used to mark the route.
• Bike Boulevards (Class IIIB) are streets designed to give priority to people walking and biking. Bicycle boulevards are streets with one vehicle lane in each direction and traffic calming treatments are used to slow vehicle speeds to under 25 mph and discourage non-local vehicle traffic. Treatments can include some combination of speed tables, raised crosswalks, speed humps, traffic diverters, chicanes, curb extensions at crosswalks, and/or neighborhood traffic circles at intersections.
Advisory Bike Lanes could be an alternative facility for existing or planned bike boulevards (or bike routes)5.
• Separated Bike Lanes (Class IV) are on-street bike facilities that include physical separation between bicyclists and vehicle traffic. Ideally, the physical separation provides protection to the bicyclist through use of materials such as concrete medians (with or without landscaping), planters, and/or the bike lane could be separated by a curb to raise the bike lane to either sidewalk height or an intermediate height. Green pavement markings can be used at driveways or intersections to draw 5 fhwa.dot.gov/environment/bicycle_pedestrian/publications/small_towns/fhwahep17024_lg.pdf

Attachment: Healdsburg ATP (4714 : Adoption of Healdsburg ATP) 9 attention to where vehicle paths cross bicyclists’ paths as well as additional intersection treatments to enhance safety.
The existing transit network, as illustrated in Figure 2, includes transit services and amenities within or immediately adjacent to Healdsburg. In Healdsburg, Sonoma County Transit (SCT) provides local bus service via Route 67–Healdsburg Shuttle with weekday and Saturday headways of 70–95 minutes. Route 67 does not operate on Sundays. Healdsburg is also served by SCT Route 60 which provides connections from Healdsburg to Cloverdale, Windsor, and Santa Rosa with headways of 20–90 minutes. SCT buses are equipped with bike racks. Regional and greater Bay Area connections can be made via Sonoma-Marin Area Rail Transit (SMART). The closest SMART station to Healdsburg is the Sonoma County Airport Station. However, a northern extension and station in Windsor is currently under construction and the Healdsburg extension is currently in the design phase.
Transit routes in Healdsburg are provided along major arterials and streets throughout the city, but the need for improved bike connections, upgraded bike facilities, and traffic calming, as shown in Figure 3, are barriers to people walking and biking to transit stops.
As described above, to enable more people to walk, bike and roll, and to use these modes to access transit, the spaces built to support those uses need to be safe and comfortable.
Figure 4 illustrates the results of a Level of Traffic Stress analysis used to gauge level of comfort traveling along a given street. Figure 4 also denotes the streets within Healdsburg that were identified as part of SCTA’s High-Injury Network6 (HIN) developed as part of SCTA’s Vision Zero Action Plan.7
An LTS 1 rating indicates the least stressful (most comfortable) facilities. Low-stress (LTS 1 or 2) facilities in Healdsburg include the Foss Creek Pathway and Passalacqua Road. LTS 4 indicates the most stressful (least comfortable) facilities. A high-stress facility in Healdsburg overlaps with an HIN segment on Healdsburg Avenue between Westside Road and Sherman Street. The city is in the planning stages of addressing challenges along Healdsburg Avenue through the proposed Healdsburg Avenue Improvement Project, which will integrate Complete Streets and Safe System best practices to improve overall safety, as well as walking and biking conditions along the corridor.
6 The High-Injury Network is a compilation of road segments with an elevated risk of crashes resulting in an injury or fatality, identified through an analysis of the frequency, severity, and mode of past crashes. https://scta.ca.gov/wp-content/uploads/2022/03/Sonoma-Vision-Zero-Action-Plan_Final-1.pdf 7 https://scta.ca.gov/wp-content/uploads/2022/03/Sonoma-Vision-Zero-Action-Plan_Final-1.pdf

Attachment: Healdsburg ATP (4714 : Adoption of Healdsburg ATP) 10 Defining Level of Traffic Stress
Level of Traffic Stress (LTS) analysis takes different travel corridor characteristics into consideration, including the number of travel lanes, speed of traffic, number of vehicles, presence of bike lanes, width of bike lanes, and presence of physical barriers providing protection from traffic. Based on these variables, a bike facility can be rated with an LTS ranging from 1 to 4.
The least stressful (most comfortable) facilities are assigned an LTS 1 rating. Facilities with this rating are typically shared-use paths, separated bikeways, low-volume and low-speed bike routes, and bike lanes on calm and narrow streets. The most stressful (least comfortable) facilities are assigned an LTS 4 rating. Facilities with this rating are typically major arterials with multiple lanes of traffic (with or without bike lanes in some cases, depending on speeds) or narrower streets with higher speed limits.

Engagement
Initial outreach for the Healdsburg ATP began in the fall of 2023. In coordination with city staff, staff from other participating jurisdictions, and SCTA, the Countywide ATP project team prepared a Stakeholder Coordination Plan and Community Engagement Plan to guide community engagement and milestone presentations to local and regional advisory bodies and relevant committees. More details on the countywide community and stakeholder engagement approaches and outcomes are detailed in the 2025 Countywide ATP.
To enhance local input, and in the absence of a Healdsburg Bicycle and Pedestrian Committee, the city formed the Active Transportation Advisory Committee. This committee served as a crucial link between the project team, stakeholders, and the broader community, ensuring that the plan reflects the needs and concerns of all residents. Committee members, selected through a call for applications in June 2023, represented diverse backgrounds and varying levels of experience with active transportation. They provided valuable input during two of the three milestone meetings and numerous additional meetings with city staff, significantly shaping the Healdsburg ATP. The advisory committee has collaborated closely with city staff and the project team
throughout the development of the plan,
meeting with both on ten separate
occasions over the past year.
Prior to community events, the project
team also reviewed previous community
comments and input provided during the
city’s LRSP development. Those comments
provided an initial background as to
community concerns and experiences. The
first community outreach event in
Healdsburg was a pop-up hosted by the
project team at the Housing Resources Fair
at the Healdsburg Community Center in
October 2023. This was followed by
another pop-up event at CraftWork
Healdsburg, also in October 2023, led by
the project team. This event gathered input
from the general public on existing
conditions for walking and biking in Healdsburg.
In October 2023, the Countywide ATP project team published a project webpage and online survey and distributed it through the City of Healdsburg website, social media, and November newsletter. SCTA/RCPA also distributed the webpage and survey through its newsletter, mailing list, and social media. Over the course of fall 2023 and spring 2024 online Project Web Map Survey with 95 comments
in Healdsburg
8.A.b
Packet Pg. 84
Attachment: Healdsburg ATP (4714 : Adoption of Healdsburg ATP) 16 engagement, 95 comments were received via the online interactive map. Another, approximately, 94 comments were received through the in-person pop events and community workshop.
In general, public feedback received through the first and second rounds of outreach in 2023 and 2024 revealed the following themes:
• Biking: more bike lanes,
protected facilities (paths,
protected bikeways,
intersection treatments)
• Walking: close sidewalk
gaps, improve existing
crosswalks, and add
new crossings
• Traffic calming:
implement on streets
(especially around
schools) to reduce speed,
provide bicycle boulevards that include more than shared lane markings • Trails: close gaps in the trail network, improve the safety of trail termini • Destinations: increase pedestrian and bicyclist access in and around The Plaza, improve Safe Routes to School options
• Roadways: implement age-friendly considerations when designing roads, consider changes to active transportation systems from future development, provide bicycle education for residents and tourists
City staff and the project team presented the draft vision and goals, and a draft proposed projects list to the Active Transportation Plan Advisory Committee in April 2024. City Staff and the SCTA hosted an additional pop-up engagement event at the Earth Day Climate Fest in April 2024. This event gathered input from the general public on proposed projects to improve conditions for walking and biking in Healdsburg.
In collaboration with SCTA, city staff and the project team also hosted an open house in June 2024 at the Healdsburg Community Center. Feedback was gathered on draft proposed projects and prioritization and draft programmatic recommendations. In October 2024, the Draft Plan was released for public comment and brought to City Council for presentation and comment. Finally, in early 2025, city staff presented the Final Plan to City Council for adoption.

The vision and goals statements were developed to be consistent with SCTA’s Comprehensive Transportation Plan, Moving Forward 2050, and were refined based on input provided by SCTA’s Countywide Bicycle and Pedestrian Advisory Committee, the Healdsburg Active Transportation Plan Advisory Commission, and other regional committees. The City of Healdsburg’s active transportation vision is as follows:
“Our guiding principles are to improve safety, connectivity, equity, and quality of life. Walking, biking, and rolling shall be safe and appealing modes for people of all ages and abilities to use for everyday transportation and recreation.” The city’s active transportation goals are the following:
1. Connected and Reliable – Deliver a continuous active transportation network that links daily activities and housing, and that allows people of all ages and abilities to use a variety of transportation types easily, affordably, and dependably.
2. Safe and Well-Maintained – Create and sustain a high-quality and low-stress active transportation network. Employ Vision Zero and Safety Plan policies and strategies to advance this goal.
3. Community Oriented and Place-Based – Tailor projects to the surrounding community contexts and user profiles. Support a diversity of uses and users and create community through active transportation programs and policies that prioritize walking, biking, and rolling.
Healdsburg also developed a series of Policies and Actions to guide implementation of the ATP, which are aligned with these three goals and presented in Chapter 5’s Policies section.

Attachment: Healdsburg ATP (4714 : Adoption of Healdsburg ATP) 19 5. Advancing Active
Transportation
The following are the planned infrastructure and policies for enhancing active transportation in the City of Healdsburg.
Infrastructure Improvements
Enhancing the safety and comfort of existing facilities as well as expanding the infrastructure and spaces available for active transportation modes are critical to creating opportunities for people of all ages and abilities to walk, bike, and roll. The section below presents locations, extents, and brief descriptions of planned projects followed by a summary of types of treatments and engineering resources the city may use in designing and implementing the planned projects.
As the projects below are developed further, city staff may choose, for a variety of reasons, to implement the project in a manner different than what is described below. Each project included in this section may also undergo additional engineering studies and/or community input and engagement as part of advancing any given project towards design and implementation. For example, projects including traffic calming treatments such as raised crosswalks or neighborhood traffic circles would include coordination and discussion with fire and emergency services. Similarly, projects that could include removing on-street parking would include additional community engagement to discuss and understand trade-offs prior to implementation.
Considerations for Facility Type
As mentioned earlier in this Plan, the bikeway facilities are organized into several distinct facility types (see page 8 for descriptions). The transportation planning and engineering profession is evolving toward using Multi-Use Paths, Buffered Bike Lanes, Bike Boulevards, and Separated Bike Lanes as often as possible to increase safety and comfort for people biking. These facility types provide more separation between bicyclists and moving vehicles and/or slow vehicle speeds to 25 mph or slower.
Table 2 summarizes the conditions under which each bike facility type is ideally applied.

Bike Lanes3 25 to 30 mph 3,000 to 6,500
Buffered Bike Lanes3 25 to 30 mph 3,000 to 6,500
Bike Routes4 25 mph and Slower Less than 3,000
Bike Boulevards4 25 mph and Slower Less than 3,000
Separated Bike Lanes5 30 mph and Higher 6,500 and Above Notes:
(1) Table content summarized based on information in FHWA’s Bikeway Selection Guide.8 (2) Multi-use paths are off-street and follow their own alignment. They can be useful for providing parallel, low-stress routes to existing streets regardless of those streets volumes or speeds. (3) Buffered Bike Lanes are preferred over Bike Lanes.
(4) Bike Boulevards are preferred over Bike Routes.
(5) Separated Bike Lanes physically separate bikes from moving vehicles using treatments that provide protection such as medians, planters, or raising the bike lane to a height similar to a sidewalk.
The planned projects identify a facility type to either enhance existing facilities or close gaps in the network. Generally speaking, facility type selection was informed by the information summarized in Table 2 as well as considerations for feasibility and continuity with existing land use and street context.
Planned Projects
Table 3 presents planned projects for enhancing walking, biking, and rolling conditions in Healdsburg, including bikeway, pedestrian crossing, and ADA improvements.

The City of Healdsburg has a series of Policies and Actions to guide the implementation of the ATP including actions to promote active transportation within Healdsburg. The Policies and Actions support each of the Plan’s goals as shown below.
GOAL 1: Connected and Reliable
Deliver a continuous active transportation network that links daily activities and housing, and that allows people of all ages and abilities to use a variety of transportation types easily, affordably, and dependably.
POLICY 1-1: Prioritize and implement bike and pedestrian projects identified in the ATP, given the amount, and type, of funding available to Healdsburg.
Action 1-1.1: As budget allows, review Healdsburg’s Traffic Impact Fee Study to determine if amendments are needed to include certain projects identified in the updated ATP.
POLICY 1-2: The city’s 5-Year Capital Improvement Program shall incorporate and include funding for bike and pedestrian improvements identified in the ATP, as well as maintenance of active transportation facilities.
POLICY 1-3: Prioritize closure of bicycle and sidewalk gaps that connect people to activity centers, schools, transit, healthcare, parks, and the downtown area, ensuring that streets safely serve seniors, youth, those with disabilities, and all members of the community.
POLICY 1-4: All public streets shall have a sidewalk connecting to the broader network, on a minimum of one side, implemented as city funding and/or opportunities with private development permit. Determining the appropriate side shall be based on the existing sidewalk network, environmental conditions, and impediments to construction.
POLICY 1-5: As part of city or private development projects, enhance pedestrian and bike facilities along or adjacent to roadways. The bike facilities that provide the most protection to people biking should be considered first, depending on existing conditions and site constraints.
POLICY 1-6: Ensure adequate bike parking is available citywide.
POLICY 1-7: Prioritize ADA improvements in high-volume pedestrian areas.
POLICY 1-8: Work cooperatively with responsible agencies to close existing facility gaps and ensure the active transportation network is implemented, constructed, and maintained.

Local Considerations
The following outlines a timeline and potential funding sources the city can use to make consistent, steady progress toward achieving its vision and goals for enhancing walking, biking, and rolling.
Timeline
Policy Actions
Putting the Active Transportation Plan policies and programs into action is a critical initial step in providing a foundation for buildout and utilization of the network. Many of the policies and the broader Active Transportation Program identified in this Plan are ongoing or recurring considerations and activities that, once initiated, will sustain investment in active transportation improvements as well as institutionalize designing streets for safe and comfortable walking, biking, and rolling.
Planned Projects
Prioritization
Opportunities to advance specific projects toward implementation will be dependent on external factors (e.g., land use projects, successful grant applications). With this in mind, the planned projects identified in this Plan have been prioritized into three tiers:
• Tier 1 – High Priority
• Tier 2 – Medium Priority
• Tier 3 – Low Priority
The criteria used to sort the projects into each tier were as follows:
• Safety – Extent to which the project is on a portion of the SCTA Vision Zero HIN and/or if it has been identified in the city’s Local Road Safety Plan as a priority location.
• Equity – Extent to which the project would improve active transportation access or conditions for an equity-focus population as defined at the regional, state, or federal level.
• Proximity to Existing and Future Transit – For a given project, the distance from an existing or future bus stop or transit station.
• Proximity to Schools – For a given project, the distance from an existing school.
8.A.b
Packet Pg. 115 Attachment: Healdsburg ATP (4714 : Adoption of Healdsburg ATP) 47 • Low-Stress Gap Closure – Scored based on whether the project would close a gap in the low-stress network, with extra points for projects on the Sonoma County Regional Routes network.
For each criterion, each project received a score based on the extent to which it fulfilled the criteria. The collective scores were normalized into a single number or index. Tiers 1, 2, and 3 were established to align with the top, middle, and bottom third of the project scores.
Projects are presented by tier in Table 3 and Table 4.
Once sorted into each of the three buckets, projects are not sorted within each tier to give city staff discretion and flexibility to respond to various opportunities that arise and can facilitate implementation. And, while the city will consider ATP prioritization, the city may choose to pursue projects opportunistically. Within the broader Countywide ATP, the project prioritization criteria are aligned with project selection criteria for the Go Sonoma funding program.
Initial Steps Towards Implementation
To advance the projects in the ATP towards implementation, staff can undertake the following types of activities.
(1) Review and incorporate ATP projects into the city’s five-year Capital Improvement Program (see Policy 1-2 above).
(2) Review upcoming maintenance projects/activities to identify where active transportation improvements can be incorporated into things like pavement rehabilitation (e.g., installing high visibility crosswalks or bike lanes when the new pavement is put in place). (3) Review current as well as future development project applications to ensure or require consistency of street frontage with planned ATP projects. (4) Coordinate with SCTA on upcoming potential funding opportunities with particular focus on the SCTA Funding Program as well as support or collaboration on state or federal funds such as HSIP, SS4A, and ATP (those and additional funding sources are highlighted below).
Appendix C contains detailed prioritization results for each project to help aid staff in understanding which of the prioritization criteria a given project met. Such information can aid in determining suitable grant funds and/or where opportunities may overlap with other efforts like Safe Routes to School or supporting access to transit.
Cost Estimates
This section presents the costs estimates for implementing the 2025 Active Transportation Plan. Project cost estimations were developed to provide a general idea of the anticipated cost for each proposed project type. These estimates are based on an engineering review of unit costs and quantities for the project types shown. They are based solely on construction costs of that item and do not include other construction costs or soft costs that may be associated with projects (e.g., design, environmental, permitting, construction management).

Packet Pg. 118 Attachment: Healdsburg ATP (4714 : Adoption of Healdsburg ATP) 50 Funding
This section describes the funding sources available to fund the projects and programs identified in this plan. In addition to local funding sources such as the Capital Improvements Program and developer fees, Table 7 presents a list of competitive grants and formula-based funding programs that have been reviewed for potential consideration to address financial needs of the projects identified in the plan. Further discussion of regional and federal funding options is included in the 2025 Countywide ATP.
Several of the funding sources listed are included in the SCTA Funding Program, which generally covers a four-year period. Recognizing the need for a coordinated approach to match the highest-priority projects with available transportation funding sources, SCTA developed the SCTA Funding Program in 2021. Priorities are identified through a call for projects to help SCTA assess and prepare projects for multiple funding programs as well as pair the best projects with the best fund sources available. Projects are evaluated to assess how they address planning and funding goals both locally and regionally to be competitive for the available funding. Cycle 2 of the SCTA Funding Program is anticipated to launch in Summer 2025, and will include funding from the One Bay Area Grant (OBAG) Cycle 4 (CMAQ and STP funds), 2026 STIP funds, LPP funds, Go Sonoma funds, and other local funding. The majority of the funds in Cycle 2 will be available in Fiscal Year 2027/28 through Fiscal Year 2030/31.

Packet Pg. 121 Attachment: Healdsburg ATP (4714 : Adoption of Healdsburg ATP) 53 Appendix A Additional Project Details
The following expanded project descriptions are for select projects in Table 3. This additional information is intended to aid city staff in the future implementation of these projects. In some instances, the expanded descriptions present options as to how the project could be designed and/or specify treatments that could be included to improve walking or biking conditions. As the projects below are developed further, city staff may choose, for a variety of reasons, to implement the project in a manner different than what is described below. The order below is the same order in which the projects are listed in Table 3.
Project 1: Dry Creek Rd and Grove St
Type: Intersection/Crossing Improvements
Expanded Description: Intersection improvements for active transportation modes. Enhance crosswalk markings to high visibility. Reconstruct curb ramps to directional ramps consistent with ADA requirements (e.g., currently NE corner curb ramp appears to be obstructed by a utility pole). Update the pedestrian crossing phase to allow more time for pedestrians to cross the street. If feasible, install pedestrian push buttons that could be activated passively by detection or by foot in addition to by hand; this recommendation is based on community member input. Further enhancements would be needed under Project
16. See Project 16 for more details.
Project 4: Front St and Mason St
Type: Crossing improvement
Expanded Description: Reconstruct intersection to a conventional four-legged intersection where Front-1st is north-south and Mason Street intersects at 90-degrees. Convert to all-way stop control. Include centerline striping on all approaches and mark crosswalks with high visibility crossings on the north and west leg of the intersection.
Project 5: Grant St (full extent) from Grove St to University St Type: Bicycle Boulevard
Expanded Description: Designate as a bicycle boulevard. Implement the following improvements to clearly mark as a bike boulevard and manage vehicle speeds to provide a lower stress environment. Mark with sharrow pavement markings in each direction.
Install neighborhood traffic circles at the following intersections—some of these intersections may require the center island to be mountable depending upon design vehicle:
Grant/Grove; Grove/Center; Grant/Fitch. Recommendations for neighborhood traffic circles are at existing all-way stop control intersections where there appears to be at least 50 feet of existing pavement measured diagonally across the intersection from face of curb to face of
8.A.b
Packet Pg. 122 Attachment: Healdsburg ATP (4714 : Adoption of Healdsburg ATP) 54 curb. This is consistent with FHWA guidance that notes minimum inscribed circle diameter can be as small as 50 feet.10
If future design determines neighborhood traffic circles are not feasible, curb extensions that shadow the on-street parking lane could be used as an alternative. If curb extensions are used, crosswalks at intersection should be marked with high visibility markings across each approach, directional curb ramps, and, potentially, raised.
If on-street parking is removed or reduced, could be upgraded to a buffered bike lane.
Enhance existing marked crosswalks at Grant/University intersection to be high visibility markings and if feasible, raised crosswalks.
11 Project 6: Powell Ave from University Ave to Healdsburg Ave Type: Bike Boulevard
Expanded Description: Install bike boulevard. Use traffic calming measures to manage vehicle speeds.
Traffic calming measures would include curb extensions at Center Street/Powell and Johnson/Powell intersections with added marked crosswalks across Powell (i.e., across the east and west legs of the intersection). Curb extensions would shadow the parking lane and be designed to help enforce the daylighting requirements in AB 413.
Mark the crosswalks across Powell with high visibility markings as well as advanced yield signs and advance yield markings. To further improve visibility and manage speeds, implement marked crossings as raised crossings, if feasible. 12 Remove on-street parking in eastbound direction on Powell 250 feet east of Healdsburg/Powell intersection. Use that space to mark a bike lane to provide designated space for bikes for the short incline. Bike lane would transition to bike boulevard west of Center Street intersection.
Throughout project extents, implement sharrows in each direction to mark as bike boulevard.
Project 7: Powell Ave from Ridgeview Drive to University Ave Type: Bike Boulevard
Expanded Description: At Powell/Ridgeview, transition from bike lane (Project 46) to bike boulevard extending to Powell/University intersection. At Powell/Ridgeview install a neighborhood traffic circle and convert Powell approaches to stop control so all approaches are stop control at that intersection.13

Packet Pg. 123 Attachment: Healdsburg ATP (4714 : Adoption of Healdsburg ATP) 55 West of Ridgeview for remainder of project extents use sharrows to mark bike boulevard. At Powell-Pardon/Sunnyside, upgrade crosswalk markings to high visibility crosswalks and, if feasible, upgrade crosswalk across Powell to a raised crossing to manage vehicle speeds.14 Construct curb extensions for crosswalks across Powell consistent with AB 413 to daylight the crossing. Use same crosswalk enhancements and curb extension treatments for marked crosswalks at Powell/Maxwell-Florence, Powell/Harold-Rose, Powell/University. Add marked crosswalk across Powell at Gromo Court using same enhancements as above.
Project 10: Fitch Street from Mason Street to Powell Ave Type: Bike Boulevard
Expanded Description: Install bike boulevard for Fitch Street from Mason Street to Powell Ave. Use sharrow pavement markings in each direction to mark as a bike boulevard.
To manage vehicle speeds, install neighborhood traffic circle at Grant/Fitch OR curb extensions with marked crosswalks (consistent with recommendations in Project 65).
Similarly, install neighborhood traffic circle at Fitch/North OR curb extensions with marked crosswalks (consistent with recommendations in Project 30).15 At Powell/Fitch, upgrade crosswalks to high visibility markings, raised crossings (if feasible), and install curb extensions that shadow on-street parking lane and support daylighting per AB 413.
Project 11: University St from Powell Ave to March St
Type: Bike Boulevard
Expanded Description: Install bike boulevard for improved north-south connectivity.
Implement bike sharrow pavement markings in each direction. Bike facility could be upgraded to a buffered bike lane, if on-street parking is removed or reduced.
Incorporate intersection improvements at University/Powell as described in Project 7 and crossing improvements at University/March described in Project 26.
At North/University intersection enhance existing marked crosswalks with high visibility markings, directional curb ramps. If feasible, make crosswalks raised to manage vehicle speeds and improve visibility of pedestrians (also included in Project 30).16 At University/Mason install a neighborhood traffic circle or mini-roundabout to manage vehicle speeds and conflicts.
Project 16: Dry Creek Rd from City Limits to Healdsburg Ave Type: Separated Bike Lane

8.A.b
Packet Pg. 124 Attachment: Healdsburg ATP (4714 : Adoption of Healdsburg ATP) 56 Expanded Description: Evaluate feasibility of installing a separated bike lane. Coordinate considerations with US 101/Dry Creek Road interchange improvements. Project would need to be designed and implemented in coordination with the county and Caltrans. Recommend considering a bidirectional facility along the northern side of Dry Creek Road from Healdsburg Ave extending west to city limits.
To implement, the right-hand westbound receiving lane at Dry Creek Road/Healdsburg Ave intersection would need to be removed and replaced with the bidirectional separated bike lane. The bike facility cross-section would necessitate approximately 4 to 5 feet of width allocated to horizontal and vertical separation elements that would provide the physical protection for the facility, and 10 to 12 feet of width for the bidirectional bike travel way.
At the Dry Creek Road/Healdsburg Ave intersection, signal infrastructure, pavement markings, and phasing/timing would need to be updated to control and clarify bike movements to/from the bidirectional facility.
The changes described here are consistent with the changes planned at the intersection as part of the Healdsburg Avenue Complete Streets Plan.
The bidirectional separated bike lane facility would extend westbound along the north side of Dry Creek Road. It would use up the current hatched pavement marking area on approach and in front of the Foss Creek Pathway crossing. Right of way acquisition and/or roadway widening would be needed west of the Foss Creek Pathway as well as some utility pole relocation.
At the Dry Creek Road/Grove Street intersection, the westbound right-turn only lane would need to be removed and that space reallocated to the bike facility. Similarly, the westbound right-hand receiving lane at that intersection would need to be removed and the space used for the bike facility. At the Dry Creek Road/Grove Street intersection upgrades would also be needed for signal infrastructure, pavement markings, and phasing/timing to control and clarify bike movements to/from the bidirectional facility.
Coordination would be needed with Caltrans on approach to and through the interchange to make enhancements to safely accommodate the bike facility and vehicle turn movements.
Project 29: Terrace Blvd from Healdsburg Ave to University Ave Type: Bike Boulevard
Expanded Description: Implement Bike Boulevard. Use sharrow pavement markings in each direction to mark as bike boulevard.
To manage vehicle speeds, implement neighborhood traffic circles at Terrace/Lupine and Terrace/Prentice intersections. If neighborhood traffic circles are determined infeasible, implement curb extensions that shadow the parking lanes, directional curb ramps, and high visibility crosswalks.17 To further manage vehicle speeds, consider feasibility of raising new crosswalks.18

Packet Pg. 125 Attachment: Healdsburg ATP (4714 : Adoption of Healdsburg ATP) 57 Project 30: North St from the railroad/Foss Creek Pathway to Greens Dr Type: Bike Boulevard
Expanded Description: Implement Bike Boulevard. Use sharrow pavement markings in each direction to mark as bike boulevard.
At North/University intersection enhance existing marked crosswalks with high visibility markings, directional curb ramps. If feasible, make crosswalks raised to manage vehicle speeds and improve visibility of pedestrians (also included in Project 11).
Install a neighborhood traffic circle at Fitch/North OR curb extensions with marked crosswalks and directional curb ramps (also included in Project 10).
Project 32: Piper Street and University St
Type: Crossing Improvement
At Piper/University intersection enhance existing marked crosswalks with high visibility markings, directional curb ramps. If feasible, make crosswalks raised to manage vehicle speeds and improve visibility of pedestrians.
Project 46: Powell Avenue from Borel Road to Ridgeview Drive Type: Bike Lanes
Expanded Description: Powell Avenue from Borel Road to Ridgeview Drive has enough paved width to install bike lanes, 5- foot bike lanes and remove on-street parking. That stretch does not have homes fronting Powell so could use that space for a bike lane in each direction. Onstreet parking would need to be prohibited.
Project 47: Mill Street from US 101 to Healdsburg Avenue Type: Buffered Bike Lanes
Expanded Description: Install buffered bike lanes. The project reallocates cross-section to one vehicle through lane in each direction and adds a buffered bike lane on each side (2-foot painted buffer and 5- to 6-foot-wide bike lane). The buffered bike lanes would lead to bike ramps at the roundabout and appear to be already constructed. On-street perpendicular parking on the south side of Mill Street would remain as-is.
Recommendations based on estimated 40-feet of existing paved right-of-way (excluding space of on-street parking on south side of street).
Project 48: Grove Street from Grant Street to North Street Type: Bike Lanes
Expanded Description: Install bike lanes on Grove between North and Grant. Implement bike lanes to provide access to land uses along this portion of Grove. Based on aerial measurements, bike lanes appear feasible if travel lanes are 11 feet wide and on-street parking is removed. The land uses on this segment appear to have off-street surface parking
8.A.b
Packet Pg. 126 Attachment: Healdsburg ATP (4714 : Adoption of Healdsburg ATP) 58 lots, so on-street parking removal may be feasible. Given the overall existing paved width of the street, a bike route does not appear appropriate and based on city staff comments a bike boulevard is not appropriate for this segment.

CITY OF HEALDSBURG
CITY COUNCIL AGENDA STAFF REPORT
MEETING DATE: January 21, 2025
SUBJECT: Report on City-Owned Land for Potential Housing Production PREPARED BY: Griselda Villarreal, Administrative Analyst II STRATEGIC INITIATIVE(S):
Expand Affordable Housing Opportunities
Provide Effective Governance
RECOMMENDED ACTION(S):
Receive a report on City-owned property with potential for affordable housing.
COMMUNITY ENGAGEMENT/OUTREACH:
This item will be heard in a public meeting where an opportunity for public comment will be provided. The discussion of City-owned land for affordable housing aligns with the policies and programs of the City’s Housing Element, which was developed through an extensive public engagement process. A review of City-owned land with potential for housing production was identified as a goal at the City Council’s public goal-setting session held in March 2024.
BACKGROUND:
On December 16, 2019, the City Council adopted Healdsburg’s Strategic Plan, "Foundation for a Strong Community," covering the period from 2020 to 2025. Following the adoption of the plan, the Council decided to conduct annual evaluations of its goals in conjunction with the fiscal year to better align resources with Council priorities.
On March 25, 2024, the City Council held its annual goal-setting session, facilitated by consultant MRG, with participation from City staff and the public.
During this goal-setting session, the Council proposed several new goals, including the task of identifying all City-owned land that could have potential for housing production in the Fiscal Year 2024-25 work plan.
On May 6, 2024, the Council formally adopted the Fiscal Year 2024-25 City Council Goals.
In line with Council direction, City staff have completed an analysis of City-owned land for
9.A
Packet Pg. 153
consideration of housing possibilities.
DISCUSSION/ANALYSIS:
Healdsburg, like many California cities, has historically advanced affordable housing by leveraging City-owned land through ownership or transfers. In line with the City Council’s adoption of the Fiscal Year 2024-25 Goals, which included identifying City-owned land for housing production, staff conducted an evaluation to assess development potential. This effort aligns with the Council’s direction and is guided by criteria that focus on the following factors:
• Existing Uses: Consideration of a parcel’s use for municipal services, such as parks, parking, and utilities.
• Physical Constraints: Consideration of waterways, wetlands, topography, and other environmental factors.
• General Plan Compatibility: Alignment with current General Plan and zoning regulations and potential for necessary amendments.
• Financial Feasibility: Assessment of viability under traditional affordable housing programs and the ability to achieve economies of scale through unit yield.
General Findings
The evaluation identified several City-owned parcels with varying degrees of potential for housing development. However, the majority of these properties face challenges that limit their near-term feasibility. These challenges include:
• Existing Uses: Many parcels currently serve as parks, municipal facilities, or parking, providing important community services. Should these properties ever be considered for housing in the future, a comprehensive evaluation would be required to assess their current contributions to the community. This would include identifying alternative solutions for displaced uses, ensuring community needs are maintained. • Physical Constraints: Some parcels are affected by environmental limitations, such as waterways, wetlands, or steep topography, reducing their suitability for development. • General Plan Compatibility: Several parcels are not currently designated for residential use under the General Plan. While amendments to these designations may be possible, the process would be complex and time-intensive, requiring significant community input and regulatory approvals.
• Financial Feasibility: Many properties would not meet the minimum unit thresholds (typically 40 units or more) required to achieve economies of scale under traditional affordable housing programs, making such projects challenging to finance without significant subsidies.
The evaluation, as anticipated, confirmed that the majority of City-owned properties have limited potential for near-term housing development. Exhibit A (Site Inventory) provides a comprehensive overview of all evaluated properties, including those excluded from consideration, along with reasons for their exclusion based on the outlined criteria.
A small number of properties demonstrate potential for housing development due to their location, size, or existing land use designation. In some cases, the City Council could consider
9.A
Packet Pg. 154
selling these properties to generate funding that can be reinvested in affordable housing projects at other locations. Such actions would require additional analysis to determine the applicability of the State Surplus Land Act (California Government Code §54220 et seq.)1and compliance with any relevant requirements

Further Analysis of City-Owned Sites
• Vacant Sites Face Challenges with Yield and Affordability.
The vacant sites are smaller in size, offer a low-unit yield, and would require significant financial subsidies to achieve affordability. This is due to the high per-unit development costs associated with smaller projects, which lack the economies of scale needed to reduce overall costs. However, these sites may provide opportunities for infill development through partnerships with community-based development organizations. • Downtown Parking Lots Have Long-Term Potential for Higher-Density Housing.
The West Plaza Parking Lot and 434 Healdsburg Avenue were studied in the Downtown Housing Capacity Study2and modeled at higher densities, with the West Plaza site supporting up to 151 units at 57 dwelling units per acre and 434 Healdsburg Avenue yielding 21 units at 65 dwelling units per acre. However, these sites are currently limited to 16 dwelling units per acre under our existing land use code. These parking lots, transferred to City ownership through the dissolution process for the former Redevelopment Agency under AB 1X 26 (Health and Safety Code §34181)3, face additional challenges, such as easements and their current role supporting downtown businesses and events. While redevelopment presents hurdles, these locations have a potential for housing if zoning updates, General Plan amendments, and community needs are carefully addressed. Any development plans would likely need to include provisions for replacement for some or all of the lost parking.
• The Community Center and Adjacent Properties Offer Housing Potential The Community Center site (APN 003-030-005), including its overflow parking lot (APN 003-030-007) and potentially adjacent parcels, present an opportunity for mixed-use housing and commercial development. This could involve utilizing areas, such as parking lots or adjacent open spaces, in initial phases, while considering the potential integration or redevelopment of the Community Center itself in the long term. Financially, a project of this scale would likely require market-rate units alongside affordable housing to achieve viability.
• 1408 University Street Offers an Opportunity for a Potential Sale.
Originally donated to the City in 1957 by Cecil G. and Claire E. Gauntlett, this parcel was intended for a firehouse or other municipal purposes, as outlined in the Grant Deed 2 Downtown Housing Capacity Study: An analysis of potential high-density residential development in downtown Healdsburg. Available at https://www.ci.healdsburg.ca.us/DocumentCenter/View/12345 3 Properties were transferred to City ownership in accordance with the Oversight Board process under AB 1X 26 (Health and Safety Code §34181), following the dissolution of Redevelopment Agencies (RDAs) in California.
These actions were finalized in 2013 through Resolution No. OB3-2013, detailing the transition of RDA assets to the City.
9.A
Packet Pg. 156
approved by the City Council.4 Following the donors’ passing, enforcement of the deed restriction was transferred to Shriners Hospitals for Children. While geological and topographical studies determined the site unsuitable for a firehouse or other municipal facilities, it could, pending regulatory review, be repurposed under the California Surplus Land Act for affordable housing or other uses. City housing staff have been in contact with the Shriners’ Hospital and have drafted a Deed Restriction Termination and Quitclaim Deed to provide flexibility for future use, including a potential sale. An update on the property’s status and potential disposition will be presented to City Council at a future meeting.
Conclusion:
The analysis of City-owned properties underscores that the City’s existing land-position is insufficient to meet Healdsburg’s housing needs. With the City’s 7 th Cycle Regional Housing
Needs Allocation (RHNA) expected to exceed the current allocation of 476 units and the State measuring RHNA progress annually rather than cumulatively, it will be important to have housing projects underway well before 2030 to avoid potential penalties. 5 To address these challenges, securing additional sites will be critical, given the high cost of land.
Proactive steps such as conducting a land inventory and collaborating with the Housing Element Work Group to explore innovative strategies—such as Housing Land Trusts—will be critical in achieving affordable housing goals, addressing community demands, and meeting state housing mandates.
