Subject: Proposal to Provide Engineering Design Services for Pedestrian Enhancements at Powell Avenue and Johnson Street Intersection
Solicitation #: RFP-26-024
Dear Clay,
The City of Healdsburg has prioritized addressing pedestrian and bicycle safety concerns at the intersection of Powell Avenue and Johnson Street, a critical location with significant foot and bike traffic. Coastland | DCCM recognizes the importance of this project in mitigating safety risks and enhancing accessibility for all users, particularly students traveling to and from the nearby high school and elementary schools, as well as residents accessing the bicycle/pedestrian path on the north leg of Johnson Street connecting to Lupine Road and surrounding neighborhoods. Identified as a priority in the City’s Local Road Safety Plan (LRSP), this intersection experiences high pedestrian and bicyclist activity, making safety improvements essential.

Planned upgrades include ADA-compliant curb ramps, curbline bulb-outs, Rectangular Rapid Flashing Beacons (RRFBs), and enhanced signage and pavement markings to ensure safer crossings and improved visibility. This project is supported by funding from a Highway Safety Improvement Program (HSIP) grant, emphasizing the City's commitment to proactive safety measures.

Coastland | DCCM has extensive experience delivering pedestrian and bicycle safety enhancement projects for public agencies across the North Bay region, including Sonoma County, Marin County, and Napa County, as well as in the East Bay region. These projects have ranged from comprehensive street paving and rehabilitation efforts combined with pedestrian improvements—such as bulb-outs, ADAcompliant curb ramps, and Rectangular Rapid Flashing Beacons (RRFBs)—to standalone pedestrian enhancement work at one or more intersections.

Coastland | DCCM shares the City’s value of providing a consistently high level of service.

RELEVANT PROJECT EXPERIENCE

CITY OF HEALDSBURG

FOSS CREEK PATHWAY
Coastland | DCCM prepared feasibility studies and performed engineering design on several segments of this key bicycle and pedestrian pathway along the Sonoma-Marin Area Rail Transit (SMART) corridor in downtown Healdsburg. The Foss Creek Pathway extends from the southern to northern limits and plays a significant role in growing the community and encouraging transitoriented development in Healdsburg.

The pathway meanders between trees along the railroad tracks from the south to north end of town, tying into the Railroad Depot to allow users to transfer from one mode of transportation to another. For safety and security, a six-foot fence separates the railroad from the pathway and decorative lighting was installed through the length of the project. The 10-foot-wide pathway is located a minimum distance of 15-feet from the railroad centerline, with more clearance where possible. The pathway elevation is established based on the future reconstruction of the SMART tracks and the desired drainage patterns. Where necessary, a v-ditch in accordance with SMART standards was designed between the rail and the pathway to provide improved drainage conditions.

Coastland | DCCM’s role also included preparing hydrology and hydraulic calculations, upgrading storm drain facilities and addressing environmental concerns. The project involved extensive coordination with SMART and received recommendations from the North Coast Railroad Authority (NCRA) and the California Public Utilities Commission (CPUC).

Recently, Coastland | DCCM led a multi-discipline team in the design of Pathway Segments 7 and 8. The project involved preparation of environmental documentation and permitting, preliminary engineering and final engineering documents for the construction of public Class 1 bicycle and pedestrian facilities. These segments of the Foss Creek Pathway feature a 10-foot-wide asphalt concrete paved pathway, decorative LED lighting, two pedestrian bridge creek crossings, multiple culvert crossings, fencing, turnouts for future bench locations and an enhanced pedestrian safety crossing at Dry Creek Road. The pathway runs along the east side of Northwest Pacific Railroad right of way from the north end of Grove Street south to Dry Creek Road, where it crosses over to the west side of the railroad tracks and continues south to a creek crossing at Foss Creek and connects to Segment 6 of the pathway, which was completed in 2015.

CITY OF PIEDMONT

ON-CALL ENGINEERING / CITY ENGINEER SERVICES
Since becoming the City of Piedmont’s contract City Engineer in 2009, Coastland | DCCM has provided a wide range of services to the City. These services include as-needed staff augmentation, program and project management, design, construction
management, and inspection. They also encompass plan and map review, funding assistance, CIP management and studies, development review and conditioning, and Pavement Management Program (PMP) updates. Additionally, Coastland | DCCM oversees traffic studies and design, conducts drainage studies, and provides GIS mapping and management of sewer, storm drain, streets, striping, and infrastructure information. Responsibilities extend to encroachment permit conditioning, issuance, and inspection, floodplain management, and staff report preparation. Our team also makes presentations to the City Council, Planning Commission, and other committees, and coordinates with jurisdictional agencies, and manage public relations. Services also include coordination and approvals through Caltrans Local Assistance, Alameda County Transportation Commission, MTC and other regulatory agencies.

As Piedmont is a bicycle and pedestrian focused community, all the transportation projects that Coastland | DCCM has completed for the City include a “Complete Streets” component. These have included sidewalk upgrades and replacements, pedestrian ramp improvements in accordance with ADA standards, pedestrian safety enhancements at intersections (including bulb-outs, RRFB installation, raised pedestrian crossings and striping), and ADA upgrades in parks.

OAKLAND AVENUE PAVEMENT REHABILITATION PROJECT
Coastland | DCCM provided design services for the rehabilitation of Oakland Avenue from the western City limits to Grand Avenue. The project included installation of three enhanced pedestrian crossing improvements including RRFBs, bulb-outs, reconstruction of eleven curb ramps, grind and overlay of the pavement, Class II bike lanes, and traffic striping and signage. The project was funded by an OBAG2 grant and local agency monies. We were responsible for processing all the required Caltrans forms from the onset of the project to project close out.

OAKLAND AVENUE BULB-OUTS AT JEROME AND EL CERRITO AVENUES Coastland | DCCM recently provided design services for the installation of enhanced pedestrian crossing improvements at the intersections of Oakland Avenue/El Cerrito Avenue and Oakland Avenue/Jerome Avenue, including curbed bulb-out ramps, associated drainage modifications, Rectangular Rapid Flashing Beacon (RRFB’s) and edge lit signs.

LINDA AVENUE BULB-OUTS
Coastland | DCCM provided design services for the Linda Avenue Bulb-out project, which included pedestrian actuated flashing beacons. The City’s Bicycle and Pedestrian Master Plan identified several locations as high-priority locations for installation of enhanced pedestrian crossings to provide better pedestrian safety. Two locations included crosswalks on Linda Avenue in front of Beach Elementary Schools and City tennis courts. Improvements associated with the project included installation of bulbouts at two locations and edge lit flashing pedestrian activated crossing signs at each of the two crossings, as well as striping improvements on Linda Avenue to include bicycle lane/routes that connected to existing bicycle lanes in the City of Oakland. The bulb-outs now provide significantly safer crossings at these locations and bicycle lane striping has promoted traffic calming due to narrower lanes.

CITY OF UKIAH

CLARA AVENUE NEIGHBORHOOD ENHANCEMENT
The primary goal of this project was to provide safe and functional facilities for pedestrians and to extend the roadway life on older streets near the City’s downtown area. To accomplish this, Coastland | DCCM prepared a community-based design plan that improves pedestrian facilities, drainage patterns, and pavement conditions on Clara Avenue, Lorraine Street, and Betty Street in Ukiah. The streets in need of improvement lacked contiguous sidewalks and underground drainage facilities and had poor pavement conditions. Coastland | DCCM’s services included reviewing a variety of traffic calming and pavement rehabilitation measures and recommending the most effective improvement for each street. Traffic calming and pedestrian measures included the use of intersection and midblock bulb-outs, edge striping, alternating parking, hatched crosswalk markings and road narrowing.

Coastland | DCCM addressed the poor pavement conditions and recommended the most cost-effective rehabilitation alternative for each location. Services also involved obtaining community input through public workshops to gather local information about needs, concerns, and recommendations for each street location. Due to lack of funds for construction, the City has only constructed a portion of Clara Avenue. As future funds become available the City can use the completed design plans to advertise for bidding and construction.

MAIN STREET UTILITIES IMPROVEMENT PROJECT
Coastland | DCCM provided design services to the City of Ukiah to replace aged and obsolete sewer and water mains along Main Street between East Gobbi Street and Norton Street. The project also included full roadway pavement reconstruction along the project length (approximately 3,850 linear feet), 23 locations of curb ramp reconstruction and installation, and replacement of existing striping and crosswalks. The improvements also added bike lane striping and markings in accordance with the City of Ukiah’s Bike and Pedestrian Master Plan. Class II bikes are provided along the entire project length.

TOWN OF WINDSOR

BROOKS ROAD AND NATALIE DRIVE CROSSWALK ENHANCEMENT
Coastland | DCCM provided engineering design services and support during construction to the Town of Windsor for the enhanced crosswalk improvements project at Brooks Road and Natalie Drive.

The goal of the project was to improve pedestrian safety and access along Brooks Road. The project involved the installation of a new midblock crosswalk with pedestrian activated RRFBs, pedestrian refuge island, bulb-outs, and protected Class II bike lanes. The crosswalk is near the popular Hiram Lewis Park and Windsor Middle School. This project was funded with HSIP and General Funds.

Other recent and relevant projects for the Town of Windsor include:
• Starr Road Enhanced Pedestrian Crosswalk
• Bell-Market-Windsor River Road Pedestrian Improvements • Windsor Road Pedestrian Improvements

OLD REDWOOD HIGHWAY BICYCLE & PEDESTRIAN ENHANCEMENTS
Coastland | DCCM completed engineering design and management on this project, which addressed the Town of Windsor’s longstanding desire to provide connectivity for pedestrian and bicycle movements through the US 101 interchange with Old Redwood Highway. Coastland | DCCM completed the design and PS&E documents and provided coordination of a team of subconsultants that consisted of a traffic engineering firm, surveyor and landscape architect.

Pedestrian improvements included two new pedestrian signal phases at the intersection of Old Redwood Highway/US 101 NB off-ramp and Lakewood Drive, approximately 400-linear feet of sidewalk, 13 ADA curb ramps, six (6) standard crosswalks, one (1) enhanced/raised crosswalk, and 12 countdown pedestrian signal heads. The new crossings and raised crosswalk provided a more direct route for pedestrians and improve safety at the on-ramp by increasing visibility. New bicycle facilities included approximately 2,500 linear feet of Class II bike lanes enhanced with colored asphalt, bicycle lane detector loops at the southbound and eastbound approaches to the US 101 NB off-ramp and Lakewood Drive signalized intersection and retrofit of four (4) bicycle-friendly drainage grates within the proposed bike lanes. The bicycle facilities on Old Redwood Highway closed the gap between existing facilities on each side of the US 101 interchange.

CITY OF AMERICAN CANYON

MELVIN ROAD SIDEWALK AND DRAINAGE IMPROVEMENTS DESIGN
Coastland | DCCM is currently designing plans, specifications, and construction cost estimates for sidewalk and storm drain improvements along Melvin Road. The engineering design team will be developing a project specific drainage study to further evaluate the hydrology and hydraulics for the project improvements.

The purpose of this project is to provide additional
sidewalk and pedestrian connectivity within the City’s
right-of-way along Melvin Road. Completing the infill
sections of sidewalk along Melvin Road will provide
residents in the area with more access to the adjacent
schools, commerce, and facilities in the surrounding
areas. This project will also provide an opportunity to install additional storm drain infrastructure that can
improve the area’s hydrology and resiliency during
storm events.

WORK PLAN

PROJECT UNDERSTANDING
The intersection of Powell Avenue and Johnson
Street experiences significant pedestrian and
bicycle activity, particularly from students traveling
to and from the nearby high school and elementary
schools located northeast of the intersection.

Additionally, the bicycle/pedestrian path on the
north leg of Johnson Street connects to Lupine
Road and several neighborhoods, further
contributing to the crossing demand. To improve
safety for pedestrians and bicyclists at this
intersection, the project will include bulb-out curb
extensions, ADA-compliant curb ramps, and
Rectangular Rapid Flashing Beacons (RRFBs).

Additional improvements include updated striping,
yield-line pavement markings, and enhanced traffic
signage. This project is supported by a Highway
Safety Improvement Program (HSIP) grant that the
City successfully applied for and received.

The City has developed a concept layout for the
pedestrian crossing improvements, which includes
bulb-out curb extensions at Johnson Street to
shorten crossing distances and enhance
pedestrian visibility. At the southwest corner, a
large tree with exposed roots presents a unique
challenge; the bulb-out design will create the
necessary space for installing an ADA-compliant
ramp while preserving the tree. The crosswalk across Powell Avenue is proposed on the east side of the intersection. To accommodate the new bulb-outs, ramps, and sidewalk, asphalt concrete conforms will be constructed as needed. Additionally, a section of the existing concrete pavement on Johnson Street is anticipated to be removed and replaced with a full-width asphalt concrete paving section.

The City has allocated approximately $250,000 for the design and construction of the project which includes approximately $225,000 of HSIP funds and $25,000 of Measure T Funds. The City would like to have the complete bid documents ready for soliciting bids and constructing the project during the 2025 construction season. Coastland | DCCM recognizes the importance of close coordination with City staff to ensure the project is delivered on time and within budget. Our team will complete the contract specifications, plans, and engineer’s opinion of probable cost, collaborate with City staff to address submittal review comments, and provide bid assistance to help answer questions and issue addenda as required.

We understand the City has prepared and filed a Notice of Exemption with the Office of Planning and Research and the County Clerk. The City doesn’t anticipate any further environmental review and therefore we have not included any environemental support services in our proposal.

Packet Pg. 174 Attachment: Scope (4820 : Professional Services Agreement with Coastland Civil Engineering, LLP) Pedestrian Enhancements at Powell Ave. and Johnson St. Intersection | Page 10 Coastland | DCCM understands the significance of this high priority pedestrian safety project for the City, and desire to go to construction this summer. Given the project's importance, it is essential that the work be completed in a timely manner while keeping the City Council, the public, and key stakeholders informed about its impacts and opportunities.

APPROACH
Coastland | DCCM will begin the project by evaluating project needs and reviewing available background information. Our team will coordinate closely with City staff and other stakeholders as appropriate to gain a comprehensive assessment of the project needs.

After the initial coordination, topographic survey and background work, Coastland | DCCM will begin designing preliminary pedestrian enhancements, which will include curb bulb-outs, curb ramp reconstructions, sidewalk replacements, traffic striping, markings, and RRFB’s. All work will be conducted within the existing right-of-way or public easements. We anticipate following the general layout of the City’s preliminary concept design. Limits of the intersection improvments may differ depending on existing grade information and ability to meet the ADA grading requirements. We will keep the City informed and updated on any design constraints and need for layout changes from the preliminary concept design.

The new curb bulb-outs will provide shortened pedestrian crossing, directional crosswalks, and enhanced visibility with the addition of RRFB’s, signage, and markings. The design of the curb bulb-outs will need to consider impacts to drainage flows as well as turning movements for successful implementation. When modifying curb returns and moving the flowline into the roadway, drainage may not be able to flow as it did previously around the return. We will evaluate the need for any storm drain improvements to provide adequate drainage as part of the 75% design efforts. Turning movements, particularly for larger emergency vehicles, will also be considered. The curb bulb-outs will be designed so emergency vehicles are not prevented from entering or exiting a roadway.

We understand the City prefers to have the RRFB’s hardwired in lieu of stand-alone solar powered units. As part of the design process, we can evaluate the advantages/disadvantages as well as construction costs for hardwired versus solar power RRFB’s and provide the City with recommendations at the 60% design submittal. If hardwired RRFB’s are selected, we are assuming the electrical service will be coordinated with the City’s Electric Department.

For each crosswalk, sight distance analyses will be performed to ensure compliance with Assembly Bill 413, ensuring proper stopping sight distances. Additionally, red curb markings will be applied to designate no-parking zones, keeping these areas at least 20-feet from crosswalks and 15-feet from curb bulb-outs, as required by state guidelines.

The City of Healdsburg has adopted the City of Santa Rosa’s 2017, revised through 2021, Storm Water Low Impact Development Technical Design Manual (Manual), which sets requirements for compliance with the City’s NPDES MS4 Permit. Coastland | DCCM will work with the City to complete the Storm

6.D.b
Packet Pg. 175 Attachment: Scope (4820 : Professional Services Agreement with Coastland Civil Engineering, LLP) Pedestrian Enhancements at Powell Ave. and Johnson St. Intersection | Page 11 Water LID Determination Worksheet to determine if the project will trigger the requirements of the LID Technical Design Manual. Due to the small project size (less than 10,000-SF of new or replaced impervious surface) we do not anticipate it will trigger the post construction stormwater requirements of the Manual.

To maintain a high level of quality and completeness, our team will devote themselves to managing their time wisely, developing innovative solutions, and maintaining clear and consistent communication with the City. During the initial phase, the Coastland | DCCM team will work closely with City staff to evaluate any non-standard design conditions, potential utility conflicts and other key issues that may affect the design of the project. Our construction management team and our in-house Certified Access Specialist (CASp) will review the project plans to ensure constructability and compliance with ADA requirements, as well as look for opportunities to save money by using alternate construction methods.

QUALITY CONTROL
Coastland | DCCM employs a comprehensive set of project management practices and established procedures to
consistently meet the quality, cost, and schedule goals of each project. Key elements of our approach include
maintaining clear communication with clients, coordinating effectively with subconsultants to meet deadlines, and closely tracking project schedules and budgets.

We understand the importance of staying on schedule, as delays can lead to increased costs for both the client and consultant. To prevent this, we proactively inform clients when project scope changes could impact costs or extend timelines, ensuring there are no surprises along the way.

To manage budgets and financials, Coastland | DCCM uses Deltek Vantagepoint software, a widely recognized tool for tracking project budgets, invoicing, and timesheets. This software provides real-time, on-demand reporting of time and expenses for any given period. On a monthly basis, our
project managers review project budgets, invoices, and
charges to ensure accurate financial tracking. We also share budget details with project teams, making sure each member understands their responsibilities and the associated budget.

Our QA/QC program ensures that our work products meet the highest standards and fulfill the scope of each task. During the initial phase, we will collaborate closely with City staff to assess any non-standard design conditions, potential utility conflicts, and other critical issues that could impact the project design.

Our construction management team, along with our in-house Certified Access Specialist (CASp), will review the project plans to confirm constructability and ensure compliance with ADA requirements. Before submitting major deliverables, we conduct comprehensive reviews by the project Principal Engineer or a technical expert to ensure technical accuracy and completeness. The Project Manager also reviews each project deliverable to confirm it meets the City’s expectations and aligns with the project scope.

SCOPE OF SERVICES
TASK 1 – PROJECT MANAGEMENT
Task 1.1 Project Management
Throughout the duration of the project our Project Manager will oversee the design team to ensure work is completed on time and within the established budget, including ensuring that invoices are accurate and timely. The Project Manager will also ensure that the proper quality control process is followed. A project design schedule will be created and updated at each design milestone or as requested.

Task 1.2 Design Milestone Meetings
We propose to meet with City staff to discuss project details, establish goals, review the project schedule and coordinate efforts. Included are the project kick-off meeting and three (3) progress design reviews (Design Development, 75%, and 100% submittals).

Task 1.3 Progress Meetings
In addition to the design milestone meetings, we will hold regular bi-weekly meetings with City staff to ensure the project stays on track and aligns with the City’s goals and expectations. These meetings will serve as an opportunity to review and discuss specific design approaches, allowing for timely decisionmaking on design elements that may impact the project prior to each milestone submittal. This collaborative process will help ensure that the project progresses smoothly, and any necessary adjustments are made before key design approvals.

TASK 2 – PROJECT AND BACKGROUND RESEARCH
Task 2.1 Field Reviews
We will conduct an initial field visit to capture digital photos of the site and identify any unique or special conditions that could impact the project design or construction. Throughout the design phase, additional field visits will be made on an as-needed basis to evaluate and refine our approach, ensuring the constructability of our proposed solutions. Prior to bidding, we will visit the site once more to assess any changes or improvements that may have occurred to identify any potential conflicts with the final plans.

This ensures that the design remains up-to-date and accurately reflects the current site conditions.

Task 2.2 Background Research
We will assemble the available City information pertaining to the project including as-built drawings, benchmark information, utility information, base maps, right-of-way data and additional pertinent information for the project.

Task 2.3 Utility Coordination
We will work with outside utility companies to ensure that existing facilities, both underground and overhead, are identified accurately during the design phase. This task will include writing letters to PG&E, AT&T, Comcast and other providers in the vicinity, informing them of the project and requesting facility drawings.

TASK 3 –SURVEYING
Task 3.1 Topographic Survey
Our subconsultant, Cinquini and Passarino, Inc. (CPI), will conduct a topographic survey of the project area. The topographic survey will be at a drawing scale of 1 inch = 10 feet, with a one-foot contour interval.

The topographic survey will include the following:
 Limits of topographic survey will include the intersection of Powell Avenue and Johnson Street.  Mapping will include the area of proposed enhancements as shown on Attachment B Preliminary Design to the City’s request for proposals plus an additional 25-feet beyond the proposed improvements.

6.D.b
Packet Pg. 177 Attachment: Scope (4820 : Professional Services Agreement with Coastland Civil Engineering, LLP) Pedestrian Enhancements at Powell Ave. and Johnson St. Intersection | Page 13  The width of the survey will be 5-feet behind the back of sidewalk to 5-feet behind back of sidewalk, where accessible. Additional points will be collected 5-feet into the roadway measured the lip of gutter in the vicinity of the proposed curb ramp improvements.

Topographic survey will include all necessary work to produce a topographic map, including features such as, but not limited to: edges of pavement, curb lines, water meters, sewer cleanouts, valves, manholes (including rim, invert and pipe information), utility markings on the pavement, utility poles, driveway locations, sidewalks, trees six inches and larger, retaining walls and any other pertinent information that could apply to the project during design within the public right-of-way.

Topographic survey will be provided on North American Vertical Datum of 1988 and horizontally relate to California Coordinate System of 1983, Zone II, Epoch 2017.50, as established by GNSS observations.

Task 3.2 Right-of-Way Determination
CPI will perform a right-of-way retracement survey to locate the right-of-way of Powell Street and Johnson Street adjacent to the project. A Record of Survey will be required in accordance with Section 8762, of the Professional Land Surveyors’ Act, Business and Professions Code, State of California as the City of Healdsburg’s right-of-way deeds have not been previously mapped. A Record of Survey will be prepared and filed with County of Sonoma.

TASK 4 – PUBLIC OUTREACH
Task 4.1 Public Informative Material
Coastland | DCCM understand that City staff will handle the public outreach and correspondence. Our team will provide the City with a brief narrative description of the project and a vicinity map / site map of where the proposed improvements are to be completed. City staff will then utilize City letterhead and add additional information at their discretion to further update the public and will provide direction to individual property owners who may wish to discuss the project or have questions for City staff.

TASK 5 – DESIGN PLANS, SPECIFICATIONS, AND COST ESTIMATE (PS&E) Coastland | DCCM will prepare detailed improvement plans, specifications, and an engineer’s opinion of probable construction cost for the project. The improvement plans will include the design and layout for all proposed road reconstruction and pedestrian safety upgrades. The specifications will consist of both general and technical provisions, with special provisions customized to meet the specific needs of the project, and these will be integrated with the City’s standard boilerplate general provisions. It is assumed the City will prepare the required front-end specifications. The engineer’s opinion of probable construction cost will be based on a comprehensive analysis of quantities and current unit price estimates for the proposed contract bid items.

Task 5.1 Design Development Review
Following the background and survey efforts, we will assemble a single plan sheet that takes the City’s preliminary design and evaluates the proposed improvements for constructability. Our primary focus will be to confirm if the gutter flow & drainage patterns can be achieved with the proposed bulb outs, and to confirm that the curb ramps and associated grading can be completed within the existing right-of-way.

Coastland | DCCM will send this exhibit to the City for review, and will discuss our initial findings with City staff via a Teams meeting. The purpose of this meeting and review will be to confirm the project design direction in preparation of the 75% Plans, Specifications, and Estimate..

Task 5.2 75% PS&E
Coastland | DCCM will then prepare a 75% submittal of the plans, technical specifications and engineer’s opinion of probable construction cost. The 75% submittal will include plan view layouts and grading details

CITY OF HEALDSBURG

CITY COUNCIL AGENDA STAFF REPORT
MEETING DATE: May 5, 2025
SUBJECT: Accepting Grant Funds from the Metropolitan Transportation Commission's (MTC's) Transit-Oriented Communities (TOC) Planning Grant Program
PREPARED BY: Scott Duiven, Community Development Director STRATEGIC INITIATIVE(S):

Establish Proactive Policies/Programs to Continue to Promote Economic Diversity & Sustainable Growth
Expand Affordable Housing Opportunities
Maintain and Improve Infrastructure and Facilities
Provide Effective Governance
RECOMMENDED ACTION(S):

Adopt a Resolution committing to take steps toward achieving compliance with the Metropolitan Transportation Commission's (MTC's) Transit-Oriented Communities (TOC) Policy as a condition for MTC to allocate regional discretionary funding to the Healdsburg SMART Station Area Specific Plan in the amount of $1,130,000 and amending the Adopted Budget.

COMMUNITY ENGAGEMENT/OUTREACH:

Extensive community outreach and engagement will be central to successful preparation of the Healdsburg SMART Station Area Specific Plan. The planning effort is anticipated to take 2 to 3 years during which there will be significant engagement and outreach to the community at large, directly affected stakeholders (e.g., property owners, businesses, residents, and interest groups), and civic decision-makers.

BACKGROUND:

MTC’s Transit-Oriented Communities (TOC) Policy (MTC Resolution 4530) was adopted in September 2022 and revised in October 2023. The TOC Policy seeks to support the region’s transit investments by ensuring communities within ½ mile of transit stations and along transit corridors are places that not only support transit ridership, but are places where Bay Area residents of all abilities, income levels, and racial and ethnic backgrounds can live, work, and access services. The TOC Policy is rooted in Plan Bay Area 2050 (PBA 2050), the region’s Long Range Transportation Plan/Sustainable Communities Strategy, and addresses all four elements of

6.E
Packet Pg. 184
the Plan including transportation, housing, the economy, and the environment. Compliance with the TOC Policy is voluntary for jurisdictions that want to advance the goals of PBA 2050, but will be required to be eligible and/or competitive for some MTC discretionary funding such as the One Bay Area Grants (OBAG).

Four goals guide the TOC Policy and advance PBA 2050 implementation:
• Increase the overall housing supply in part by increasing the density for new residential projects and prioritize affordable housing in transit-rich areas. • In areas near regional transit hubs, increase density for new commercial office development.
• Prioritize bus transit, active transportation, and shared mobility within and to/from transit-rich areas.
• Support and build partnerships to create equitable transit-oriented communities within the San Francisco Bay Area.

Healdsburg applied to MTC’s 2024 Transit-Oriented Communities Planning and Implementation Grants program seeking to prepare a Specific Plan for Healdsburg’s Priority Development Area which includes the half-mile around the Planned Healdsburg SMART Station and the Priority Site known as the South Entry Area Plan. While Healdsburg is well-positioned with its recently adopted Housing Element to address the TOC Policy requirements related to affordable housing production, preservation, and protection; a Specific Plan is needed to address the requirements related to minimum residential and commercial office densities, parking management, and transit station access and circulation. Furthermore, the Plan will integrate housing, employment, transportation, and infrastructure needs in the South Entry Area which is currently not served with public utilities (water, sewer, stormwater). A programmatic Environmental Impact Report (EIR) will be prepared, allowing for future streamlining of development projects consistent with the Plan.

DISCUSSION/ANALYSIS:

Healdsburg has been granted $1,130,000 in funding from the Metropolitan Transportation Commission’s (MTC) Transit-Oriented Communities (TOC) Policy program for the area surrounding the planned Healdsburg SMART rail station and the South Entry Area.

The TOC policy requirements consist of the following four elements:

1. Density: Increase residential and commercial densities in areas near transit stations.

2. Housing: Prioritize affordable housing production, preservation and protection in transitrich areas.

3. Parking: Adjust minimum and maximum parking ratios and pursue transportation demand management policies.

4. Access and Circulation: Prioritize active transportation and shared mobility within and to/from areas within ½ mile of fixed rail stations.

While compliance with the TOC Policy is voluntary for jurisdictions, compliance is likely to be considered as a key factor in future MTC discretionary grant funding. As a condition of the grant funding, MTC requires Healdsburg to submit a resolution of local support and commitment

6.E
Packet Pg. 185
toward taking steps to achieve compliance with MTC’s TOC Policy (Attachment 1).

ENVIRONMENTAL STEWARDSHIP:

Development and future implementation of the Healdsburg SMART Station Area Specific Plan will result in increased housing and jobs within the area surrounding the SMART rail station and in close proximity to services and entertainment which could reduce Vehicle Miles Traveled (VMT) as residents, employees, and visitors could drive less to meet daily needs.

ALTERNATIVES:

Decline to adopt the resolution committing to achieve compliance with MTC’s TOC Policy and not accept the grant funding for the Healdsburg SMART Station Area Specific Plan.

FISCAL IMPACT:

The proposed action is to adopt a resolution of local support to accept grant funds in the amount of $1,130,000 to prepare the Specific Plan. There are no local matching funds required, the grant will be administered on a reimbursement basis and the grant includes federal funding sources.

The grant period will begin July 2025 and continue through October 2027. Until an RFP is prepared, and a consultant team selected, the total cost of the planning project is not known. Staff anticipate that property owners within the South Entry Area Plan boundary will come forward to assist in funding the planning effort if the amount exceeds available grant funding. Staff are proposing to amend the Adopted Fiscal Year 2025-26 budget to appropriate the grant revenue and expense.

ENVIRONMENTAL ANALYSIS:

This action does not qualify as a project pursuant to the 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. Pursuant to CEQA Guidelines Section 15060(c)(3) any activity that is not a project is not subject to environmental review under CEQA.

Preparation of the Healdsburg SMART Station Area Specific Plan will require extensive environmental review, likely requiring preparation of an Environmental Impact Report.

Sanctions may include withholding of commensurate payment due under this Agreement until compliance is achieved.

7.0 AMENDMENTS

13.0 AUDITS
AGENCY shall permit MTC and MTC’s authorized representatives to have access to AGENCY’s books, records, accounts, and any and all work products, materials, and other data relevant to this Agreement, for the purpose of making an audit, examination, excerpt and transcription during the term of this Agreement and for the period specified in Article 12. AGENCY shall in no event dispose of, destroy, alter, or mutilate said books, records, accounts, work products, materials and data for that period of time. Such permission shall extend to books, records, accounts, and any and all work products, materials, and other data relevant to this Agreement of the AGENCY’s contractors and subcontractors, if any. If applicable, should MTC request access to the construction site and related field operations, MTC shall provide reasonable notice to AGENCY, and AGENCY shall provide access as it deems reasonable and safe, subject to the rights of the property owner if such owner is not AGENCY.

AGENCY further agrees to include in all its subcontracts hereunder exceeding $25,000 a provision to the effect that the subconsultant agrees that MTC or any of MTC’s duly authorized representatives shall have access to and the right to examine any directly pertinent books, documents, papers, and records of such subconsultant for the term specified above. “Subconsultant” is defined in Article 14.0 Subcontracts, below.

Master Funding Agreement

Page 6 ends

B. Nothing contained in this Agreement or otherwise, shall create any contractual relation between MTC and any subconsultants, and no subcontract shall relieve AGENCY of his/her responsibilities and obligations hereunder. AGENCY agrees to be as fully responsible to MTC for the acts and omissions of its subconsultants and of persons either directly or indirectly employed by any of them as it is for the acts and omissions of persons directly employed by AGENCY. AGENCY's obligation to pay its subconsultants is an independent obligation from MTC's obligation to make payments to AGENCY.

C. Applicable provisions of this Agreement shall be included in any subcontract or subconsultant agreement in excess of $25,000 entered into under of this Agreement.

15.0 PROHIBITED INTERESTS
No member, officer, employee or agent of MTC, during his/her tenure shall have any prohibited interest as defined by California Government Code Sections 1090, et seq., direct or indirect, in the Agreement or the proceeds thereof. Prohibited interests include interests of immediate family members, domestic partners, and their employers or prospective employers. Accordingly, AGENCY further covenants that it has made a complete disclosure to MTC of all facts of which AGENCY is aware upon due inquiry bearing upon any possible interest, direct or indirect, that it believes any member, officer, agent or employee of MTC (or an immediate family member, domestic partner or employer or prospective employer of such member, officer, agent or employee) presently has, or will have in the Agreement, or in the performance thereof, or in any portion of the profits thereunder. Willful failure to make such disclosure, if any, shall constitute grounds for cancellation and termination hereof by MTC.

16.0 ORGANIZATIONAL CONFLICTS OF INTEREST
AGENCY shall take all reasonable measures to preclude the existence or development of an organizational conflict of interest in connection with work performed by subconsultants or subcontractors under this Agreement. An organizational conflict of interest occurs when, due to other activities, relationships, or contracts, a firm or person is unable, or potentially unable, to render impartial assistance or advice to MTC or AGENCY; a firm or person’s objectivity in performing the contract work is or might be impaired; or a firm or person has an unfair competitive advantage in proposing for award of a contract as a result of information gained in performance of this or some other Agreement.

AGENCY shall not engage the services of any subconsultant or subcontractor on any work related to this Agreement if the subconsultant or subcontractor, or any employee of the subconsultant or subcontractor, has an actual or apparent organizational conflict of interest related to work or services contemplated under this Agreement.

Page 7 ends

If at any time during the term of this Agreement AGENCY becomes aware of an organizational conflict of interest in connection with the work performed by a subconsultant or subcontractor hereunder, AGENCY shall immediately provide MTC with written notice of the facts and circumstances giving rise to this organizational conflict of interest. AGENCY’s written notice will also describe alternatives for addressing or eliminating the organizational conflict of interest. If at any time during the period of performance of this Agreement, MTC becomes aware of an organizational conflict of interest in connection with performance of any work hereunder by a subconsultant or subcontractor, MTC shall similarly notify AGENCY. In the event a conflict is presented, whether disclosed by AGENCY or its subconsultant or subcontractor, or discovered by MTC, MTC will consider the conflict presented and any alternatives proposed and meet with AGENCY to determine an appropriate course of action.

MTC’s determination as to the manner in which to address the conflict shall be final.

Failure to comply with this section may subject AGENCY or its subconsultant or subcontractor to damages incurred by MTC in addressing organizational conflicts that arise out of work performed by such subconsultant or subcontractor, or to termination of this Agreement for breach.

17.0 CHOICE OF LAW
All questions pertaining to the validity and interpretation of the Agreement shall be determined in accordance with the laws of the State of California applicable to agreements made and to be performed within the State.

18.0 PARTIAL INVALIDITY
If any term or condition of this Agreement is found to be illegal or unenforceable, such term or condition shall be deemed stricken and the remaining terms and conditions shall remain valid and in full force and effect.

19.0 NO THIRD PARTY BENEFICIARIES
This Agreement is not for the benefit of any person or entity other than the parties.

20.0 ORDER OF PRECEDENCE

2. DAVIS-BACON ACT
For all prime construction, alteration or repair contracts in excess of $2,000 awarded by FTA, the Contractor shall comply with the Davis-Bacon Act and the Copeland “Anti-Kickback” Act. Under 49 U.S.C. § 5333(a), prevailing wage protections apply to laborers and mechanics employed on FTA assisted construction, alteration, or repair projects. The Contractor will comply with the Davis-Bacon Act, 40 U.S.C. §§ 3141-3144, and 3146-3148 as supplemented by DOL regulations at 29 C.F.R. part 5, “Labor Standards Provisions Applicable to Contracts Governing Federally Financed and Assisted Construction.” In accordance with the statute, the Contractor shall pay wages to laborers and mechanics at a rate not less than the prevailing wages specified in a wage determination made by the Secretary of Labor. In addition, the Contractor agrees to pay wages not less than once a week. The Contractor shall also comply with the Copeland “Anti-Kickback” Act (40 U.S.C. § 3145), as supplemented by DOL regulations at 29 C.F.R. part 3, “Contractors and Subcontractors on Public Building or Public Work Financed in Whole or in part by Loans or Grants from the United States.” The Contractor is prohibited from inducing, by any means, any person employed in the construction, completion, or repair of public work, to give up any part of the compensation to which he or she is otherwise entitled.

3. CONTRACT WORK HOURS AND SAFETY STANDARDS ACT
Contract Work Hours and Safety Standards Act - (i) The AGENCY’s contractor agrees to comply with section 107 of the Contract Work Hours and Safety Standards Act, 40 U.S.C. section 333, and applicable DOL regulations, "Safety and Health Regulations for Construction" 29 C.F.R. Part 1926.

Among other things, the AGENCY’s contractor agrees that it will not require any laborer or mechanic to work in unsanitary, hazardous, or dangerous surroundings or working conditions. (ii) Subcontracts - The AGENCY’s contractor also agrees to include the requirements of this section in each subcontract. The term "subcontract" under this section is considered to refer to a person who agrees to perform any par t of the labor or material requirements of a contract for construction, alteration or repair. A person who undertakes to perform a portion of a contract involving the furnishing of supplies or materials will be considered a "subcontractor" under this section if the work in question involves the performance of construction work and is to be performed: (1) directly on or near the construction site, or (2) by the employer for the specific project on a customized basis. Thus, a supplier of materials which will become an integral part of the construction is a "subcontractor" if the supplier fabricates or assembles the goods or materials in question specifically for the construction project and the work involved may be said to be construction activity. If the goods or materials in question are ordinarily sold to other customers from regular inventory, the supplier is not a "subcontractor." The requirements of this section do not apply to contracts or subcontracts for the purchase of supplies or materials or articles normally available on the open market.

4. COPELAND ANTI-KICKBACK ACT
Compliance with Copeland Act requirements - The AGENCY’s contractor shall comply with the requirements of 29 CFR part 3, which are incorporated by reference in this contract.

5. PROMPT PAYMENT OF FUNDS WITHHELD TO SUBCONTRACTORS
The AGENCY shall hold retainage from the prime contractor and shall make prompt and regular incremental acceptances of portions, as determined by the agency of the contract work and pay retainage to the prime contractor based on these acceptances. The AGENCY’s prime contractor or subcontractor shall return all monies withheld in retention from a subcontractor within 30 days after receiving payment for work satisfactorily completed and accepted including incremental acceptances of portions of the contract work by the agency. Federal regulation (49 CFR 26.29) requires that any delay or postponement of payment over 30 days may take place only for good cause and with the agency’s prior written approval. Any violation of this provision shall subject the violating AGENCY’s prime contractor or subcontractor to the penalties, sanctions, and other remedies specified in Section 7108.5 of the California Business and Professions Code. These requirements shall not be construed to limit or impair any contractual, administrative, or judicial remedies otherwise, available to the prime contractor or subcontractor in the event of a dispute involving late payment, or nonpayment by the prime contractor, deficient subcontract performance, or noncompliance by a subcontractor. This provision applies to both DBE and non-DBE prime contractors and subcontractors.

CITY OF HEALDSBURG

CITY COUNCIL AGENDA STAFF REPORT
MEETING DATE: May 5, 2025
SUBJECT: Acceptance of Public Improvements for the Mill District Subdivision PREPARED BY: Curt Bates, Principal Engineer

COMMUNITY ENGAGEMENT/OUTREACH:

The tentative subdivision map was publicly noticed in accordance with City requirements and public hearings were previously held with both the City’s Planning Commission and City Council, both of which afforded the opportunity for public input on the project.

BACKGROUND:

On April 6, 2020, the City Council adopted Resolution No. 30-2020 approving the final subdivision map for the Mill District Subdivision.

DISCUSSION/ANALYSIS:

The developer, Replay Healdsburg LLC, has completed all improvements in accordance with the approved subdivision improvement plans. The developer previously provided a labor and materials security bond as part of the agreement for subdivision improvements in the amount of one hundred percent (100%) to secure payment for subdivision improvement work. The developer has also provided a maintenance security bond in the amount of ten percent (10%) of the value of the subdivision improvements, in accordance with the agreement for subdivision improvements. The maintenance security bond guarantees the improvements to be free of defects in materials and workmanship for a period of one year following acceptance. The maintenance security bond will be released by city staff upon re-inspection and repair of any defective items

6.F
Packet Pg. 240
pursuant to the agreement for subdivision improvements. City staff has verified the completion of the subdivision improvements and is satisfied that the subdivision is ready for acceptance.

ENVIRONMENTAL STEWARDSHIP:

Not applicable.

ALTERNATIVES:

The subdivision agreement obligates the city to accept the public improvements once they have been installed to the satisfaction of the City Engineer.

FISCAL IMPACT:

The Public Works Department is required to maintain the public water, sewer and storm drain systems as well as public streets constructed and paid for by the developer. The value of subdivision improvements was estimated in the Project Engineer’s Estimate to be $6,030,857.01.

As described above, the developer has provided a maintenance security bond to guarantee the public improvements to be free of defects in materials and workmanship for a period of one year following this acceptance.

ENVIRONMENTAL ANALYSIS:

The City Council adopted Resolution No. 42-2019 on March 11, 2019, approving the tentative map for the project. The City Council found the project to be categorically exempt pursuant to California Environmental Quality Act (“CEQA”) guidelines section 15332 Class 32 in-fill development projects. This action to accept the public improvement for the Mill District Subdivision is not a “project” subject to the requirements of CEQA; as provided in CEQA Guidelines Section 15378 (c), the term “project” refers to the activity which is being approved, and which may be subject to several discretionary approvals by governmental agencies. The term “project” does not mean each separate governmental approval. As noted, the public improvements for the Mill District Subdivision were approved by the city in 2019 and at that time it was determined that such action was categorically exempt from CEQA. Accordingly, this acceptance of the public improvements that have been constructed does not constitute a separate “project” subject to CEQA.

PREPARED BY: Raina Allan, City Clerk
STRATEGIC INITIATIVE(S):

Provide Effective Governance
RECOMMENDED ACTION(S):

Pass an Ordinance Amending Healdsburg Municipal Code Article 1 (General Provisions) within Chapter 2.40 (Elections) of Title 2 (Administration and Personnel) to add section 2.40.010.01 “District Elections” to Provide for the Election of Members of the City Council by Five Districts; Establish the District Boundaries; and Election Order of Each District.

COMMUNITY ENGAGEMENT/OUTREACH:

Outreach for this effort includes posting on social media channels, including Facebook, Instagram and Nextdoor. The City has also shared information on the City’s website and in the bi-weekly City Manager’s Update. Informational pamphlets have been distributed to each City facility in English and Spanish as well as an insert that was included in the December utility bills. A dedicated webpage has been created on the City’s website at https://healdsburg.gov/1152/Transition-to-District-Elections. Information is available to the public with background information about the districting process, upcoming hearing dates, and supporting documents. This webpage is being continuously updated with dates and locations where community members can share their feedback on this issue. The website also features a virtual mapping tool which community members have been utilizing to draw their own district boundaries and a feature allowing submission of community interest forms. Information will be provided in both English and Spanish. The City held a community meeting on January 16, 2025 at the Community Center, met with the senior community on January 24, 2025 at the Senior Center and the City Manager held a meeting with the Spanish-speaking community on January 28, 2025 to gather feedback on the process. The City has partnered with Corazón Healdsburg to

6.G
Packet Pg. 244
assist with the outreach to the Spanish-speaking community. Both public hearings and community meetings will continue to include live interpretation services.

BACKGROUND:

On October 3, 2024, the City received a letter from a potential plaintiffs’ attorney, Shenkman & Hughes PC, alleging a violation of the CVRA and threatening litigation unless the City voluntarily transitions to a district-based election system for electing Councilmembers. On November 18, 2024, the City Council adopted a resolution declaring the intent to transition to District-Based elections. Elections Code section 10010(e)(3)(B) and (C) provides that if a legislative body adopts a resolution of intent, a prospective plaintiff may not commence an action within ninety (90) days of the resolution of intention’s passage unless that date is extended in writing by the parties. In this case, the prospective plaintiff’s attorney agreed to allow the City of Healdsburg a sixty (60) day extension and the initial Tentative Timeline submitted to the Council identified April 17, 2025 as the deadline for the transition. Since then, Staff confirmed with the prospective plaintiff’s attorney that an additional thirty (30) day extension is acceptable and thus the new deadline to complete the transition to district based elections is by May 17, 2025.

The City conducted the initial two public hearings on December 16, 2024 and January 6, 2025.

At the first and second public hearings, the Council received a report from the City’s demographer, Redistricting Partners, about the basics of the districting process and identifying communities of interest. The video and presentation from the first and second meeting can be found on the City’s dedicated redistricting webpage which can be found here:
https://healdsburg.gov/1152/Transition-to-District-Elections.

Upon completion of the first and second public hearings, the City was required to hold at least two additional hearings over a period of no more than 45 days, at which the public was invited to provide input regarding the content of the draft maps and the proposed sequence of elections.

The City held the third public hearing on February 18th at which both the public and the City Council provided feedback on the draft maps. Members of the public had the opportunity to submit maps with four, five or six districts over the course of the last ten weeks.

At the fourth public hearing on March 17, 2025, the community and the City Council considered the draft maps moved forward from the third public hearing, as well as the community-submitted maps. All of the maps are available on the City’s website:
https://healdsburg.gov/1152/Transition-to-District-Elections. The maps that have been submitted by members of the public through the City’s “Districtr” mapping tool are identified by a numerical identification number (e.g., ID 277459),” and the maps that have been prepared by Redistricting Partners are identified by a letter (e.g., Draft Map A).

DISCUSSION/ANALYSIS:

On April 7, 2025, the City Council held a fifth public hearing where they considered Draft Map A as the basis for an ordinance. Following discussion, the Council elected not to approve Draft Map A and instead selected Draft Map D as the foundation for the ordinance.

6.G
Packet Pg. 245
On April 21, 2025, the City Council held a sixth public hearing and selected Draft Map D as the foundation for the ordinance and selected sequencing of Districts (Districts 2 and 4 would be elected in 2026 and 1, 3 and 5 would be elected in 2028), and then introduced the ordinance. At this meeting the Council would pass the ordinance.

Within 21 days of adopting final election district boundaries, the City Council will be required to issue a report that explains the basis on which it made its decisions in achieving compliance with the requirements and criteria of the Fair Maps Act, including, as to each neighborhood, community of interest, city, or census designated place that was split into two or more districts, the reason for that split.

Proposed Ordinance
The proposed Ordinance would amend Article 1 (General Provisions) within Chapter 2.40 (Elections) of Title 2 (Administration and Personnel) to add a new section 2.40.010.01 “District Elections” within the Municipal Code. The proposed Ordinance would provide for the election of Councilmembers by establishing five districts and identify the district boundaries by including the map selected by the Council in the ordinance. The proposed Ordinance would also specify that the commencement of the district elections shall be in the next general municipal election in 2026 and provide for two seats being elected in 2026 and three seats in 2028 to ensure all incoming and currently seated Councilmembers’ do not have shortened terms. Finally, the Proposed Ordinance authorizes Redistricting Partners to make non-substantive, technical adjustments to the map as necessary to prepare a GIS shapefile, which will be submitted to the County of Sonoma by the City Clerk.

ENVIRONMENTAL STEWARDSHIP:

Not applicable.

ALTERNATIVES:

The City Council could choose not to move adopting Draft Map D. If this alternative is selected, staff requests further direction in terms of additional analysis requested or an alternative map to include in an ordinance for consideration at a future public hearing.

FISCAL IMPACT:

There is a fiscal impact due to the costs associated with the transition to District-based elections.

Costs include the demographer, which are estimated to be less than $50,000, $10,000 to the County of Sonoma, legal costs, and payment of the plaintiffs’ attorney costs of $33,000. The City Council appropriated a total of $100,000 for this effort at a prior meeting ENVIRONMENTAL ANALYSIS:

This item does not constitute a project as defined by the California Environmental Quality Act (Public Resources Code § 21000, et seq.) (CEQA) as the adoption of the resolution does not have the potential to result in either a direct physical change in the environment, or a reasonably foreseeable indirect physical change in the environment (14 Cal. Code Regs. § 15378).

CITY OF HEALDSBURG

CITY COUNCIL AGENDA STAFF REPORT
MEETING DATE: May 5, 2025
SUBJECT: Agreement with Dailey-Wells Communications for the Purchase of Police Radio Equipment
PREPARED BY: Matt Jenkins, Chief of Police
STRATEGIC INITIATIVE(S):

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

Adopt a Resolution authorizing the City Manager to execute a purchase agreement with DaileyWells Communications in the amount of $58,545.95 for the purchase of police radio equipment.

COMMUNITY ENGAGEMENT/OUTREACH:

Not Applicable.

BACKGROUND:

The Police Department utilizes an array of radio equipment to communicate between the dispatch center and staff in the field, including handheld, portable radios. The current radios used by police officers were purchased in the early 2000s and have reached the end of their serviceable lifespan. The Police Department’s radio repair service is often reliant on secondary markets to procure repair parts.

As part of this replacement project, the City was able to secure partial funding through the State Homeland Security Grant Program in the amount of $40,800, which will cover the purchase of 8 handheld, portable radios and associated equipment.

DISCUSSION/ANALYSIS:

The proposed purchase agreement would provide for an additional 10 handheld portable radios and related equipment, covering all needs for patrol units. The proposed radios are multiband (UHF/VHF), which allow for greater communication and interoperability between agencies responding to emergencies.

Staff intends to execute the agreement with Dailey-Wells Communications through the County of Sonoma’s cooperative purchasing agreement (Sonoma County BPO QB 170032), as permitted

6.H
Packet Pg. 267
by Section 3.24.080.8 of the City of Healdsburg Municipal Code. Purchasing the equipment through this purchasing agreement meets all reequipments set forth in the City of Healdsburg Purchasing Policy and ordinance and all requirements set forth by the State of California in regard to regional, state, and national cooperative purchasing agreements.

ENVIRONMENTAL STEWARDSHIP:

Not Applicable.

ALTERNATIVES:

The City Council could choose not to authorize the City Manager to sign the purchase agreement. In this case, the City would not purchase new radio equipment for the police department. This alternative is not recommended due to the age of the existing equipment and the potential for failure.

FISCAL IMPACT:

The proposed purchase contract with Dailey-Wells Communications is for 15 new handheld portable radios and associated equipment for a total amount of $58,545.95. The County will separately purchase an additional 8 handheld portable radios and associated equipment on behalf of the City of Healdsburg using the State Homeland Security Grant Program award of $40,800.

The Fiscal Year 2024-25 adopted budget includes sufficient appropriations in the Police Department budget in the Public Safety Fund to support the proposed purchase agreement of $58,545.95.

ENVIRONMENTAL ANALYSIS:

Pursuant to Title 14, the California Code of Regulations, Section 15378(b)(5) of the California Environmental Quality Act (“CEQA”) guidelines, the proposed action is an administrative activity of the City that will not result in direct or indirect physical changes to the environment and is therefore not a project for purposes of CEQA.

CITY OF HEALDSBURG

CITY COUNCIL AGENDA STAFF REPORT
MEETING DATE: May 5, 2025
SUBJECT: Reject Bids for the Test Wells for ASR Potential, Phase 1 of Project WA006
PREPARED BY: Patrick Fuss, Water/Wastewater Engineer
STRATEGIC INITIATIVE(S):

Maintain and Improve Infrastructure and Facilities
Maintain and Enhance Public Health and Safety
RECOMMENDED ACTION(S):

Adopt a Resolution rejecting all bids received for the Test Wells for ASR Potential, Phase 1 of Project WA006 and direct staff to seek funding sources to complete this project.

COMMUNITY ENGAGEMENT/OUTREACH:

Staff conducted workshops with the public on August 23, 2021, and September 22, 2021, associated with the City’s 2020 Urban Water Management Plan where groundwater wells and aquifer storage and recovery were discussed as means to increase resilience of the City’s water supply. Staff presented this project to the Russian River Watershed Association on October 11, 2022, the Healdsburg Rotary Club on March 6, 2023, and at Healdsburg Climate Fest in April 2023 and 2024. On September 3, 2024, the City Council awarded the design contract of the ASR wells in a duly agendized and public City Council meeting.

BACKGROUND:

The City of Healdsburg currently receives all its potable water supply from surface waters. The City utilizes four main water rights to provide potable water as follows:
• Gauntlett – 4 cubic feet per second (cfs)
• Fitch – 3 cfs (may only be diverted from the Fitch Well Field (Badger Park) May 1 through October 31 due to turbidity issues; may alternatively be withdrawn from Gauntlett Well Field year-round)
• Dry Creek – 1 cfs (seasonal diversion April 1 through November 1 each year) • CSA / Fitch Mountain 1.39 cfs (limited by turbidity similar to the Fitch water right)

8.A
Packet Pg. 272
The City also has a water purchase agreement with Sonoma Water for up to 9.75 cfs and up to 425 acre-feet of volume.

During the drought of 2013-2018 all but the most senior surface water rights (Fitch) for the City were curtailed. In the drought of 2021, all surface water rights for the City, including water from the water purchase agreement, were curtailed. Under this condition, the City petitioned the State to allow water sufficient for public health and safety, an amount equivalent to approximately 112 gallons per capita per day, which is roughly 2 cfs.

To add drought resilience to the City’s water supply portfolio, the City explored additional supplies of water not subject to surface water curtailments imposed by the State. These sources of supply included groundwater resources not under the influence of surface water. To make this concept sustainable and to maximize its usefulness the City explored aquifer storage and recovery (ASR) groundwater wells. ASR wells would allow the City to store water in the aquifer when surface water is plentiful and withdraw it when surface water is scarce. This approach also provides a mechanism for the City to replenish groundwater if the volume of available stored water is insufficient.

In August 2021, staff solicited proposals for hydrogeologists to assist with determining the best locations for the ASR wells, estimating the expected yield for the wells, identifying the permits required for well construction, determining the requirements for ASR use, and designing the wells. On October 18, 2021, the City Council awarded a professional services agreement to GEI Consultants. GEI Consultants prepared a feasibility investigation that determined that ASR wells are feasible based on historical records at the former Dry Creek well field on West North Street, at Badger Park, and at the Community Center. Based on the historical data available, the wells are estimated to produce roughly 100 gallons per minute each (or 0.2 cfs each).

In 2021, staff applied for a grant through FEMA’s Building Resilient Infrastructure and Communities 2021 (BRIC 2021) program. The City was notified of selection for the grant in August 2022. The Phase 1 portion of the BRIC 2021 grant for exploratory wells and ASR facility design was funded by FEMA on July 1, 2024. The Phase 1 grant amount was of $1,514,841, and City funds required for the local match were estimated to be approximately $650,000 for this phase of the project. Phase 2 would be funded later depending on the exploratory wells project findings.

DISCUSSION/ANALYSIS:

On March 6, 2025, staff advertised for bidding the construction of exploratory wells at the proposed ASR well sites. The exploratory wells would build 8-inch wells to the anticipated aquifer depth for the ASR wells to determine the ability of the aquifer to perform as supply wells and ASR wells; the quality of the water in the aquifer to determine if additional treatment is required, and to determine if the aquifer is in communication with the surface water.

On March 19, 2025, a non-mandatory pre-bid meeting was conducted by staff for prospective bidders. The pre-bid meeting was attended by seven interested companies. On April 3, 2025, six bids were received. The lowest bid was offered by Weeks Drilling & Pump Company for $977,618. Bidders were required to submit a questionnaire stating their experience on similar

8.A
Packet Pg. 273
projects and confirming that the equipment and methods intended to be used for the project were consistent with project requirements. The lowest bidder, Weeks Drilling & Pump Company’s questionnaire was found to be responsive to the project requirements. Staff recommended awarding the project to the lowest responsive bidder, Weeks Drilling & Pump Company.

However, on April 4, 2025, staff received notification from the Department of Homeland Security, the federal agency that oversees FEMA, that the BRIC 2021grant program is being cancelled. Funds that had not yet been distributed to states for projects would be returned to the FEMA Emergency Relief Fund. On April 15, 2025, staff received an e-mail from California Office of Emergency Services (CalOES), the BRIC 2021 grant administrator, confirming that the BRIC 2021 grant program was cancelled, but that the Phase 1 funds are in place to construct the exploratory wells.

The CalOES e-mail also indicated that requests for additional time to compete Phase 1 would not be granted without prior approval from the FEMA administrator and that management costs would be halted. Per the grant award, the period of performance concludes on November 29, 2025 with all expenditures required to be completed by August 29, 2025. Staff, the design consultant, and the low bidder reviewed the work required and concluded that an extension of time would be required to complete the scope of Phase 1 and that in the time constraints only one exploratory well could be completed.

The scope of Phase 1 under the BRIC grant includes design and construction of the exploratory wells, and design of the ASR production wells and above ground facilities. To complete the project as scoped, the period of performance would need to be extended to March 31, 2026.

Additionally, the cost of Phase 2 for construction of the ASR Well Facilities is estimated at approximately $6,410,000. When completed, the ASR wells could potentially produce approximately 0.43 million gallons per day – approximately 15 percent of the City’s summer demand. However, improvements to Dry Creek well field and treatment plant could produce approximately 80 percent of summer demand. Improvements to the Dry Creek Water Treatment Plant booster pumps and clear well are planned for FY 2026-27, and improvements to well capacity at the Dry Creek well field are planned for FY 2028-29. Staff will continue efforts on water supply projects which can reduce the City’s reliance on Russian River sources and propose focusing our limited resources on the projects, such as the Dry Creek well field, that will make the most impact.

Staff does not recommend awarding a construction contract for Test Wells for ASR Potential, Phase 1 of Project WA006. Staff recommend that City Council reject all bids for the Test Wells for ASR Potential, Phase 1 of Project WA006, and direct staff to identify and pursue other funding opportunities to complete this work in the future.

ENVIRONMENTAL STEWARDSHIP:

The addition of ASR to the groundwater supply wells project adds resilience not only to the City’s water supply, but also to the aquifer, preventing local aquifers from becoming overdrawn due to increased groundwater pumping without a means to replenish the ground water supplies.

8.A
Packet Pg. 274
ALTERNATIVES:

City Council could elect to award the project and direct staff to complete the Test Wells for ASR Potential, Phase 1 of Project WA006. As planned the additional project costs would include:

Construction of exploratory wells $977,618
Construction contingency (recommended 10%) $97,762
Laboratory Analyses $26,970
Design consultant support during construction $172,600
ASR Well Facility design $710,200
TOTAL $1,985,150
The cost of completing Phase 1 of the project was planned to be funded 70 percent by FEMA and 30 percent by City water impact fees. As a result of the BRIC 2021 grant program cancelation and the time constraints to expend the awarded grant funding for Phase 1, if Council chooses this alternative it is possible that only the portion of work that can be completed during the grant period will be reimbursed and the City will have to cover the remaining costs over and above the 30% local match. It is also possible that the grant will not reimburse any of the additional project costs and the City will be responsible for funding the entire amount. Staff do not recommend this option due to the uncertainty surrounding the construction timeline, unknown additional City costs, and absence of Phase 2 funding.

Alternatively, staff believe that if the scope of the project is reduced to one well, the project can be completed in the time constraint of the grant without an extension. However, one well does not effectively serve the City’s needs due to the limited production potential and is not recommended by staff.

FISCAL IMPACT:

The total project budget currently appropriated for Phase 1 of the Groundwater Supply Well/ ASR Wells Project WA006 is $2,164,059. This funding is comprised of $1,514,841 in federal BRIC grant funding and $649,218 in Water Impact Fee funding. Expenses incurred on the project currently total $70,217, with additional outstanding invoices from the consultant anticipated at approximately $10,000. Reimbursement requests for 70% of the expenses incurred have been submitted to CalOES in accordance with the grant award. CalOES has indicated verbally that if the City elects to stop the project, funds disbursed for submitted reimbursement requests would not require repayment and the City would only be responsible for funding the 30% local matching portion.

ENVIRONMENTAL ANALYSIS:

On November 27, 2024, the City determined that the Test Wells for ASR Potential – Phase 1, Project WA006 project was exempt from the California Environmental Quality Act (“CEQA”) pursuant to Section 15306 – Information Collection, which exempts basic data collection, research, experimental management, and resource evaluation activities which do not result in a serious or major disturbance to an environmental resource. These may be strictly for information gathering purposes, or as part of a study leading to an action which a public agency has not yet approved, adopted, or funded.

8.A
Packet Pg. 275
Further, none of the exceptions to the CEQA exemption apply. This is because the project will have no impacts on environmental resources of hazardous or critical concern and will not result in or contribute to cumulative impacts. There are no unusual circumstances associated with the project that would result in a significant effect on the environment, nor would the project impact scenic resources. The project is not situated on a hazardous waste site and would not impact any historic resource. Therefore, the proposed project is exempt from CEQA.

The recommended action of rejecting all bids is not a project pursuant to CEQA and does not involve any commitment to any specific project that may result in a potentially significant physical impact on the environment. (CEQA Guidelines section 15378(b)(4).) Further, rejection of bids is an administrative activity that would not have the potential to either (1) cause a direct physical change in the environment or (2) cause a reasonably foreseeable indirect physical change in the environment.

Program, Returning Agency to Core
Mission of Helping Americans Recovering
from Natural Disasters
Release Date: April 4, 2025
Under Secretary Noem, DHS is eliminating waste, fraud and abuse WASHINGTON -- FEMA is ending the Building Resilient Infrastructure and Communities (BRIC) program and canceling all BRIC applications from Fiscal Years 2020-2023. If grant funds have not been distributed to states, tribes, territories and local communities, funds will be immediately returned either to the Disaster Relief Fund or the U.S. Treasury.

Statement Attributable to a FEMA Spokesperson:
“The BRIC program was yet another example of a wasteful and ineffective FEMA program. It was more concerned with political agendas than helping Americans affected by natural disasters. Under Secretary Noem’s leadership, we are committed to ensuring that Americans in crisis can get the help and resources they need.”
Approximately $882 million of funding from the Infrastructure Investment and Jobs Act will be returned to the U.S. Treasury or reapportioned by Congress in the next fiscal year. The 2021 law made $1 billion available for BRIC over five years, $133 million to date has been provided for about 450 applications. FEMA estimates more than $3.6 billion will remain in the Disaster Relief Fund to assist with disaster response and recovery for communities and survivors.

Ending this program will help ensure that grant funding aligns with the President’s Executive Orders and Secretary Noem’s direction and best support states and local communities in disaster planning, response and recovery.

CITY OF HEALDSBURG

CITY COUNCIL AGENDA STAFF REPORT
MEETING DATE: May 5, 2025
SUBJECT: Healdsburg Avenue Complete Streets Project – Project Update PREPARED BY: Clay Thistle, Senior Engineer
STRATEGIC INITIATIVE(S):

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

Receive a presentation on the proposed Healdsburg Avenue Complete Streets Project design and confirm Council support for proceeding with the final design.

COMMUNITY ENGAGEMENT/OUTREACH:

The City implemented an extensive community engagement process during the conceptual design phase of the project. Multiple workshops were held that included Spanish interpretation along with surveys and other public meetings to solicit input on how best to improve the Healdsburg Avenue corridor from Powell Avenue to the northern City limit.

Prior to construction additional notifications will be provided.

BACKGROUND:

On December 17, 2012, Healdsburg City Council adopted Resolution 128-2012 recognizing the importance of Complete Streets and the desire to improve public streets and the transportation network for all users. Complete Streets are planned, designed, operated, and maintained to provide safe and convenient mobility for all users, including pedestrians, bicyclists, transit vehicles, persons with disabilities, seniors, children, youth, families, motorists, and commercial vehicles.

Healdsburg Avenue is Healdsburg’s primary north/south arterial connecting residential areas with shopping centers, places of employment, recreational and commercial areas, public facilities, and the downtown Plaza. Serving as State Route 101 until the 1960s when the Healdsburg bypass was constructed, the portion of Healdsburg Avenue from Powell Avenue to the northern City limit predominately caters to vehicle users and lacks the features that benefit and enhance other modes of travel. Currently the roadway consists of five lanes (two lanes in each direction and a two-way left turn lane) allowing for high-speed traffic. Sidewalks are

8.B
Packet Pg. 283
discontinuous, paved shoulders are narrow and lack bicycle lanes, and crosswalks are long and few and far between, further discouraging walking and bicycling.

Recognizing the need for complete streets improvements on Healdsburg Avenue, the City contracted with MIG, Inc. to develop a concept plan for improving this section of roadway. MIG designed and completed a specific and targeted outreach program, conducted extensive background research, and performed feasibility analysis of alternative options. MIG used this information to develop a preferred conceptual plan.

On February 3, 2020, the conceptual plan was presented to Council.

Based on the conceptual plan, staff successfully applied for an Active Transportation Program grant. On December 19, 2022, City staff requested proposals (RFP) from qualified consultant firms or teams with relevant experience and knowledge to prepare preliminary plans, environmental and right-of-way documents, and final plans, specifications and estimate (PS&E), for the Healdsburg Avenue Complete Streets Project and the Healdsburg Avenue Utility Replacement project. The utility replacements are needed to upgrade portions of the sewer, water, and storm drain facilities in advance of the complete streets project.

On May 18, 2023, the California Transportation Commission awarded $11,819,000 in Active Transportation Program grant funding for the construction of the project.

On September 5, 2023, Council approved a Professional Services Agreements with BKF Engineers for engineering design services for the Healdsburg Avenue Complete Streets Project in the not-to-exceed amount of $1,539,986 and for engineering design services for the Healdsburg Avenue Utility Replacement Project in the not-to-exceed amount of $309,357.

DISCUSSION/ANALYSIS:

The existing Healdsburg Avenue corridor is a wide, vehicle-dominated roadway with underutilized space, failing pavement, and limited facilities which presents gaps of access for pedestrians and cyclists. The project will transform this stretch of Healdsburg Avenue into a more vibrant “complete street” that prioritizes safety, accessibility, and multi-modal transportation for all users.

To advance the original concept to a fully engineered design, several studies and investigations to determine the feasibility of the concept drawings were performed. These efforts included, but were not limited to, geotechnical investigations to determine the integrity of the existing pavement, utility investigations to assess underground and overhead utility conflicts, traffic operations analysis to develop the appropriate lane configurations, and refining the cost estimate with up-to-date costs and quantities. These studies along with survey data were used to create a detailed geometric layout of the complete street design features such as bus turnouts at bus stops, protected intersections, pedestrian refuge island with rectangular rapid flashing beacons (RRFB) for safer pedestrian crossings, Class IV bikeways with varied forms of bicycle protection, traffic calming via intersection bulb outs, and tree planting along the existing roadway right-of-way.

The geometric layout made apparent the conflicts between existing conditions and the concept

8.B
Packet Pg. 284
drawings. Resolving those conflicts resulted in the following notable changes from the concept drawing to the current design.

The original concept showed numerous trees, most of which were located above underground utilities, in conflict with overhead utilities, or for other reasons determined infeasible. The idea of a landscaped buffer between bike and vehicular traffic at these locations had to be revised since the City must maintain access to the underground utilities. Therefore, a more typical means of protecting cyclists using bollards is included in locations where trees or raised medians are infeasible or not recommended. There remain significant sections of landscaped areas which will add many new trees throughout the project.

Much of the community engagement for this project occurred shortly after the Kincade Fire.

Some residents were concerned that the lane reduction would slow a future evacuation process.

While it was known that normal traffic operations would not be negatively impacted by the lane reduction, the effect on a large scale evacuation had not been investigated. In response to that concern, the consultant suggested that a 10-foot Class IV bikeway could possibly be used as an emergency evacuation lane. However, further exploration of this concept by the current design team demonstrated that merging, turning movements, and entering and exiting the lane may cause more delays than actual benefits. Additionally, fitting the bus turnouts, protected intersection, RRFB median refuge islands within the existing right-of way and preserving a 10- foot-wide bikeway for evacuation was not feasible.

Seeing that the bike lane could not provide dual function, our traffic engineers performed an evacuation analysis by modeling the City’s existing street network, population, and traffic conditions. Model analysis was performed for the existing street configuration and for the proposed Healdsburg Avenue improvements without use of the bike lane as an emergency evacuation lane. The analysis showed no meaningful increase in evacuation time without additional lane as constraints beyond the project area are the controlling factor and that the project reduction in lanes has limited effect on evacuation time. An evacuation once the project is completed may see longer single queuing in lieu of two-lane queuing but the time to evacuate and number of vehicles should remain essentially the same.

One other notable change is that traffic operational analysis determined that a traffic signal at Sunnyvale Ave was not warranted, and a lower cost RRFB will address the pedestrian need. An unwarranted signal delays traffic without benefit. The RRFB provides on demand lighting for pedestrian crossings and can be converted later if a signal becomes warranted based upon future build-out.

The recommended design, with the noted changes, is estimated to be within the current construction budgeted amount of $13,777,000.

As the design process continues, project estimates will be refined and staff is committed to guiding the project to align with the budget.

The requirements of the grant funding, the Healdsburg Avenue Complete Streets Project require staff to adhere to the Caltrans Request for Authorization (RFA) process, which includes key

8.B
Packet Pg. 285
milestones such as Field Review, Environmental Clearance, Right of Way Certification, PS&E preparation, RFA submittal, Authorization to Proceed, Advertisement, Award, and Construction.

Strict compliance with this process and its associated requirements is essential to retain funding, as any deviation may result in loss of financial support. One of the project’s next steps is to meet with Caltrans District of Local Assistance for a Field Review/Preliminary Environmental Study meeting to kick off the environmental clearance efforts.

Construction is currently scheduled to begin in September of 2026 and complete in March of 2029, though delays are possible.

The next anticipated project council action would be awarding the construction contract.

ENVIRONMENTAL STEWARDSHIP:

The Healdsburg Avenue Complete Streets Project will support a reduction in vehicle miles traveled, dependence on single-occupancy vehicle trips, and a reduction of vehicle speeds, all of which serve to lower harmful greenhouse gas emissions.

During construction reuse and recycling will be used to divert much of the construction waste from landfill. Additionally, project specification will require concrete, and asphalt removed to be delivered to local recyclers for reuse in new paving and concrete products.

ALTERNATIVES:

Council may choose not to support the design as proposed and request that modifications be made. Modifications made would need to ensure that grant and obligations and commitments remain intact or risk loss of the grant funding. Additionally, modifications that increase scope would need to be supported by additional funding or equivalent scope reductions.

FISCAL IMPACT:

The project is included in the Adopted Budget with approximately $1,617,640 allocated for the design phase and $13,777,000 for construction, for a total budget of $15,394,640. Funding is comprised of $600,000 in OBAG Federal Grant funds, $24,033 of Streets Fund, $37,000 of Federal Earmark Funds, $57,705 of ARPA funds, $2,856,902 of Measure T funds and $11,819,000 of ATP Grant funds.

Current project estimates are in line with funding and no additional funding is being requested at this time.

ENVIRONMENTAL ANALYSIS:

The recommended action does not constitute a “project” under CEQA, pursuant to Section 15378(b)(4)(5) of the California Environmental Quality Act (CEQA). The future construction project will be subject to environmental review and pending approval pursuant to CEQA and NEPA (National Environmental Policy Act) guidelines at a future date.

CITY OF HEALDSBURG

CITY COUNCIL AGENDA STAFF REPORT
MEETING DATE: May 5, 2025
SUBJECT: Discuss Three City of Healdsburg Topics for Discussion at the Mayors' and Councilmembers' Association Board Special Meeting on May 22, 2025
PREPARED BY: Raina Allan, City Clerk
STRATEGIC INITIATIVE(S):

Provide Effective Governance
RECOMMENDED ACTION(S):

Discuss and provide direction to Mayor Mitchell or an alternate regarding three City of Healdsburg topics for discussion at the Mayors’ and Councilmembers’ Association Board Special Meeting on May 22, 2025.

COMMUNITY ENGAGEMENT/OUTREACH:

Not applicable.

BACKGROUND:

The City of Healdsburg is a member of the Sonoma County Mayors’ and Councilmembers’ Association. The Sonoma County Mayors’ and Councilmembers’ Association Board of Directors (Association) and the City Selection Committee (Committee) serve as collaborative bodies representing all Sonoma County cities. Their primary purpose is to create a unified voice to advocate for city interests at the regional level, ensuring that key priorities are advanced through collective action.

DISCUSSION/ANALYSIS:

The Association Board of Directors plays an essential role in shaping regional policy by reviewing issues of mutual interest, developing meeting agendas, appointing city representatives to regional and statewide committees, and acting as the Sonoma County City Selection Committee under Government Code Sections 50270 et seq. The Board also issues position letters and recommends programming topics for the Association’s General Membership meetings, acting in its role as the Program Committee.

On April 10th, at the Board of Directors meeting the Directors discussed public relations and

9.A
Packet Pg. 290
messaging in order to reinforce the cities’ priorities at various levels of local government. At that meeting, each City/Town Council was asked to identify and prioritize three key issues within their jurisdiction that require attention or action. These priorities will be discussed collectively at an upcoming special Board of Directors meeting to explore shared solutions and foster collaboration. The goal is to present these consolidated priorities to the Sonoma County Board of Supervisors to ensure alignment and effective resource allocation In preparation for the May 22, 2025 Special Meeting of the Association Board of Directors, the City Council is asked to provide Mayor Mitchell or her designated alternate with direction on three key topics of regional significance.

City staff proposes the following topics for consideration:

1. Mental Health Services and Allocation Measure O Funds:

In 2020, Sonoma County voters passed Measure O, a quarter-cent sales tax dedicated to mental health, addiction, and homeless services. The measure was estimated at the time to generate $25 million in revenue annually, and actual revenue in FY24-25 was over $32 million. Although Healdsburg benefits from some of the countywide services funded by Measure O, it does not receive any direct allocations of this funding. The City currently funds a mental health response position in the Police Department without any outside funding support, primarily from the General Fund. In 2024, the County Board of Supervisors approved funding for Healdsburg to expand its mental health response program, but after significant ongoing discussions, it became evident that the County would only provide the funding if the City’s response protocols were adjusted to allow for MediCal reimbursement for the services provided. City staff determined that this did not make operational sense for the City and would not result in improved services for the community, so the funding agreement did not move forward.

Healdsburg staff would welcome a revisiting of Measure O to see how local services could be better supported, particularly for cities that are using General Funds to provide services.

2. Funding Homelessness Response and Project Homekey Projects Like all jurisdictions in Sonoma County, Healdsburg spends significant local resources on the challenge of homelessness. This includes street outreach, shower services, and supportive housing at Victory Apartments, but the most significant cost is for the operation of the L&M Village, a transitional housing facility of 22 units. Thus far, the County has supported operational costs for the facility, which have been around $800,000 per year. However, the funding has been provided through one-year agreements. No agreement for County funding is in place for FY25-26 although discussions are ongoing.

If the County funding were to go away, the costs of the L&M would take up the overwhelming majority of Healdsburg Measure S funding for affordable housing, drastically limiting the City’s ability to pursue other planned projects.

The County receives funding via Measure O that can be used for transitional housing and receives HEAP funding via the State of California. Healdsburg would greatly benefit

9.A
Packet Pg. 291
from a multi-year funding agreement for the L&M, reducing long-term budgetary uncertainty.

3. Emergency Preparedness
Although all jurisdictions in the County are active in planning for future disasters and emergencies, the response often requires regional coordination. This coordination has been improved in recent years, but there is always an opportunity to further refine how jurisdictions can cooperate to ensure the most effective response.

4. Water Security
The proposed decommissioning of the Potter Valley Project will significantly impact water availability for communities that rely on the Russian River. Healdsburg has taken numerous steps to diversify its water supply in advance. Nevertheless, regional coordination will be crucial to ensure that the decommission and the proposed “two basin solution” will be implemented in a manner that best ensures sufficient and predictable water availability, particularly during the summer months.

Regional collaboration through the Association is helpful to advancing the City's priorities, securing necessary resources, and ensuring Healdsburg’s voice is represented in discussions that affect the broader Sonoma County community.

ENVIRONMENTAL STEWARDSHIP:

Not applicable.

ALTERNATIVES:

The City Council may decide not to move forward with recommendations on key topics of regional significance.

FISCAL IMPACT:

There is no fiscal impact related to this action.

ENVIRONMENTAL ANALYSIS:

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