WHEREAS, the public park component of the Saggio Hills Project is addressed in the Saggio Hills Project EIR (State Clearinghouse No. 2003062025) which was certified by the Healdsburg City Council through the adoption of Resolution No. 15-2011. Certain components of development on the site, including the park, were addressed at a project-level in the Saggio Hills Project EIR. Raney Planning and Management prepared an Initial Study/Environmental Checklist for the Saggio Hills Park Master Plan and, based on the analysis contained therein, determined that an Addendum to the Saggio Hills Project EIR is the appropriate environmental document for the City Council’s consideration of the Master Plan. Accordingly, on April 21, 2023, the City Council approved the final Master Plan for the Saggio Hills development park and determined, based upon substantial evidence demonstrated by the analysis included in the Addendum, that none of the conditions described in Sections 15162 or 15163 of the CEQA Guidelines calling for the preparation of a subsequent or supplemental EIR or negative declaration have occurred.

NOW, THEREFORE, BE IT RESOLVED that the City Council of the City of Healdsburg does hereby:

1. Approves a Professional Services Agreement with Fletcher Studio in an amount not to exceed $824,675.

2. Authorizes the City Manager to execute the agreement and change orders up to 10% of the original agreement amount.

3. Finds that the approval of this Agreement does not require any additional action under CEQA. The public park component of the Saggio Hills Project is addressed in the Saggio Hills Project EIR (State Clearinghouse No. 2003062025) which was certified by the Healdsburg City Council through the adoption of Resolution No. 15-2011.

CITY COUNCIL AGENDA STAFF REPORT
MEETING DATE: June 16, 2025
SUBJECT: L&M Village Lease Extension and Amendment to the Lease, Funding, and Service Agreement with Reach for Home
PREPARED BY: Griselda Villarreal, Administrative Analyst II STRATEGIC INITIATIVE(S):

Expand Affordable Housing Opportunities
Maintain and Improve Infrastructure and Facilities
Provide Effective Governance
RECOMMENDED ACTION(S):

Adopt a Resolution approving an extension to the Lease, Funding, and Service agreement with Reach for Home for the L&M Village, approving the FY 25-26 Terms of Service, authorizing the City Manager to execute any documents necessary to effectuate the extension and amending the adopted fiscal year 2025-2026 Budget.

COMMUNITY ENGAGEMENT/OUTREACH:

The L&M Village lease extension and amendments to the Lease, Funding, and Service Agreement with Reach for Home will be discussed during a Regular City Council meeting, providing a forum for public comment and participation. City staff and Reach for Home will continue to maintain open communication with the project’s neighbors and the community through quarterly updates.

BACKGROUND:

On October 18, 2021, the City Council authorized City staff, in collaboration with Reach for Home and Burbank Housing, to apply for the FY 2021-22 Project Homekey program to acquire the L&M Motel for interim housing for individuals experiencing chronic homelessness.

On October 26, 2021, the County of Sonoma adopted Resolution No. 21-0431, approving $950,000 in Capital Match funding and an operating subsidy for the L&M Village under Project Homekey Round-2 (PHK-2) Supportive Services Funding Framework and Early Capital Match Program.

On October 27, 2021, the City, Reach for Home, and Burbank Housing applied to the State of

6.D
Packet Pg. 241
California for $5,720,000 in Project Homekey capital funding and $1,328,800 in operating subsidy totaling $7,048,800 in State funds.

On December 21, 2021, the State of California announced that the City, Reach for Home, and Burbank Housing were awarded the requested Project Homekey funding, pending execution of the State’s Standard Agreements.

On February 16, 2022, the City executed a State Standard Agreement with the State of California, and on March 23, 2022, received PHK-2 capital and operational funds. On May 3, 2022, escrow closed, and the L&M Motel is now under City ownership.

On November 21, 2022, the City adopted Resolution No. 173-2022, approving the Lease, Funding, and Service Agreement (“Agreement”) with Reach for Home for the use and operation of the L&M Village project, consisting of the Terms of Service and an Annual Budget for the Project.

On March 6, 2023, the City Council approved amendments to the Terms of Service to align the annual budget with the City’s Fiscal Year (“FY”) and authorize prefunding, resulting in a total funding amount of $668,391 in FY 2022-23.

On June 20, 2023, the City Council approved the Terms of Service and annual budget for Reach for Home, authorizing a total funding amount of $907,596 in FY 2023-24.

On April 30, 2024, the County of Sonoma approved an agreement with the City of Healdsburg to provide operational funding for the L&M Village for FY 2023-24, with a maximum reimbursement amount of $644,160.

On June 3, 2024, the City Council adopted Resolution No. 63-2024, authorizing the execution of an amendment to the Lease, Funding, and Service Agreement to incorporate updated Terms of Service and Annual Budget.

On June 19, 2024, the County of Sonoma amended the operational funding agreement with the City of Healdsburg, extending the contract date to June 30, 2025.

On October 30, 2024, the County of Sonoma executed the modified operational funding agreement with the City of Healdsburg to provide operational funding for the L&M Village in the amount of $101 per unit, for 22 units, not to exceed a total of $644,160.

On February 10, 2025, the County of Sonoma executed a third modification to the existing operational funding agreement with the City of Healdsburg to provide operational funding for the L&M Village for FY 2024-25, in an amount not to exceed $1,263,570.

DISCUSSION/ANALYSIS:

This item requests that the City Council extend the term of the Lease, Funding and Service Agreement for the L&M Village and fulfills the City Council’s November 21, 2022, directive to provide, before each new fiscal year, an annual update on the Terms of Service and Annual

6.D
Packet Pg. 242
Budget components of the Lease, Funding, and Service Agreement.

Below is a summary of the proposed updates:

Lease
Under the terms of the Lease, Funding, and Service Agreement governing Reach for Home’s lease and operation of L&M Village, the lease term expires on the day before the third anniversary of the Certificate of Occupancy. City staff have determined that, with the COO issued on April 23, 2023, the lease will expire on April 22, 2026. Staff recommends extending the term by three years—to April 22, 2029—while maintaining the nominal annual rent of one dollar ($1.00).

Funding and Service Agreement
There are no proposed changes to the core Funding and Service Agreement. However, the Terms of Service and the Annual Budget have been updated to align with the City’s fiscal year and reflect anticipated operational costs for FY 2025-26.

Terms of Service
The revised Terms of Service for the L&M Village are attached as Exhibit 1 to the Agreement Amendment. These Terms have been amended to be in effect from July 1, 2025, through June 30, 2026.

Annual Budget
The proposed Annual Budget for operation is attached as Attachment 1. The budget request for FY 2025-26 is $811,030, based on a rate of $101 per door per day for the 22 units.

Sonoma County Operational Funding
In 2021, the Sonoma County Board of Supervisors adopted a funding framework to support citysponsored Homekey programs, including the L&M Village. This framework, known as the Early Capital Match and Operational Funding, was required by the State to ensure long-term sustainability of Homekey projects beyond the initial operational funding. Initially managed by the Sonoma County Community Development Commission (“CDC”), oversight of the operational funding agreement was transferred to the Department of Health Services (“DHS”), when the Homelessness Services Division was moved to the Department of Health Services (“DHS”).

By January 2024, the City's initial State Homekey operational funds were fully expended. In anticipation of additional support, the City advanced operational costs for L&M Village. On April 30, 2024, the County approved a one-year funding contract with the City. However, the terms of this contract differed from earlier expectations: funding was limited to occupied units at $80 per unit per day, capped at $644,160, and only covered through the end of FY 2023–24. This created a funding shortfall, as fixed operating costs exceeded the reimbursable amount under that agreement. On October 30, 2024, County agreed to modify the operational funding agreement for the L&M Village in the amount of $101 per unit, for 22 units.

6.D
Packet Pg. 243
Additionally, City staff worked with DHS to extend the contract through FY 2024–25 to fully utilize available funding and address the operational gap. Due to the City stretching earlier funds to support services through the first half of FY 2023–24, staff requested that the County extend support through the first half of FY 2024–25. The County agreed, extending the contract through June 30, 2025. To further address the operational funding shortfall, on February 10, 2025, the County executed a modification to the existing operational funding agreement with the City, providing up to $1,263,570 in support for L&M Village operations through FY 2024-25.

City staff continue active discussions with Sonoma County’s Department of Health Services to finalize a new operational funding agreement for FY 2025-26. While the City remains responsible for maintaining and operating L&M Village, staff anticipate resolving the FY 2025- 26 contract in the near term.

ENVIRONMENTAL STEWARDSHIP:

Not applicable.

ALTERNATIVES:

The Council may choose to direct staff to make changes to the Lease, Funding, and Service Agreement, and to the Terms of Service and Annual Budget components. In that event, staff would seek further guidance from the Council.

FISCAL IMPACT:

The proposed Terms of Service with Reach for Home outline an annual operating budget for the L&M Village from July 1, 2025, through June 30, 2026, totaling $811,030. Reach for Home developed their budget based on operational needs while maintaining alignment with the existing county funding allocation of $101 per day for the 22 units. The Fiscal Year (FY) 2025-26 annual operating budget proposed in the Terms of Service reflects a 0.4% increase from the approved FY 2024-25 annual operating budget of $807,640.

For FY 2024-25, the Housing Department’s Affordable Housing Measure S Fund included $513,631 in appropriations to cover the shortfall between County operational funding and total L&M operating expenses and insurance costs. As a result of the third amendment to the operational funding contract with the County increasing the total contract amount, staff anticipate only a minimal amount of Measure S funding will be required to support L&M insurance costs in FY 24-25. In the City’s adopted budget for Fiscal Year 2025-26 the Measure S Fund included $845,535 in appropriations to cover the entire Lease Funding and Services agreement with Reach for Home and insurance costs for the property as the current county funding contract expires June 30, 2025.

To preserve Measure S Funds for other affordable housing goals, City staff are actively working with the County to establish a sustainable, long-term operational funding agreement.

ENVIRONMENTAL ANALYSIS:

Pursuant to Title 14, the California Code of Regulations, Section 15302(c) 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.

CITY OF HEALDSBURG

CITY COUNCIL AGENDA STAFF REPORT
MEETING DATE: June 16, 2025
SUBJECT: Speed Limit Reduction Ordinance
PREPARED BY: Curt Bates, Principal Engineer
STRATEGIC INITIATIVE(S):

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

Pass an Ordinance of the City Council of the City of Healdsburg amending Section 10.50.050 of the Healdsburg Municipal Code, Prima Facie Streets Established by Engineering and Traffic survey (Regarding Speed Limits in the City of Healdsburg).

COMMUNITY ENGAGEMENT/OUTREACH:

Within fifteen (15) days of its passage, this Ordinance shall be published at least once in a newspaper of general circulation published and circulated in the City of Healdsburg, along with the names of the members of the City Council voting for and against its passage. Also, Section 22358 of the California Vehicle Code requires that appropriate signs be installed on the date the City Council action goes into effect, thereby giving notice of changes to posted speed limits.

New speed limit signs and changed condition flags will be placed at speed limit signs that have been reduced, for a period of at least two weeks, to notify drivers of modified speed limits. Also, in accordance with the recently updated California Vehicle Code sections, the Healdsburg Police Department shall issue only warning citations for violations of exceeding the speed limit by 10 miles per hour (mph) or less for the first 30 days that a lower speed limit is in effect as authorized by this section. Additionally, city staff will be posting public notice prior to the new speed limit signs being installed.

BACKGROUND:

This ordinance amending Chapter 10.50.050 of the Healdsburg Municipal Code was introduced at the June 2, 2025, City Council meeting.

On March 15, 2021, the Healdsburg City Council adopted Ordinance No. 1208 amending speed limits set in section 10.50.050 of the Healdsburg Municipal Code. By adopting the updated ordinance, the City Council found that the engineering and traffic surveys dated January 27, 2020, prepared by the City’s traffic engineering consultant, were acceptable to justify speed

6.E
Packet Pg. 258
limits set for 32 street segments within Healdsburg.

On January 3, 2022, the Healdsburg City Council Adopted Ordinance No. 1212, reducing speed limits on Front Street between Healdsburg Avenue and Mason Street, and Healdsburg Avenue between Exchange Avenue and Front Street by 5 mph based on a review of the existing engineering and traffic surveys and new rules in Assembly Bill 43. At that time, the City Council was informed that vehicle code amendments from Assembly Bill 43 were still under review and that City staff intended to perform a detailed technical and legal review of the amendments, monitor the progress of the updates to the Manual on Uniform Traffic Control Devices by the Department of Transportation, and bring back a comprehensive update to the City Council at a future meeting date. Subsequently, additional speed limit related bills including Assembly Bill 382, Assembly Bill 1014, and Assembly Bill 1938 have been signed into state law, giving local agencies increased flexibility and authority to reduce speed limits on locally controlled, public roadways.

In May of 2023, the City of Healdsburg, along with other local agencies in Sonoma County, collaborated with staff from the Sonoma County Transportation and Climate Authority (SCTCA) to apply for a planning grant through the U.S. Department of Transportation (USDOT) Safe Streets for All Program. The program is aimed at preventing roadway deaths and serious injuries by creating safer roadways for all users. On December 13, 2023, SCTCA issued a press release that it was awarded a planning grant in the amount of $1,060,000 through the Safe Streets for All program to conduct planning and carry out activities related to transportation safety within Sonoma County. The City of Healdsburg was allocated $124,000 of the grant to create Safe Routes to School plan documents for four public and two private schools as well as perform a speed limit reduction study including the preparation of updated engineering and traffic surveys for various street segments in Healdsburg.

On August 19, 2024, the Healdsburg City Council adopted Resolution No. 97-2024, authorizing the City Manager to execute a cooperative funding agreement with SCTCA to contribute the required local agency match funding for the study. The City of Healdsburg entered into the cooperative agreement with the SCTCA on September 16, 2024.

SCTCA initiated a request for proposals in July 2024 to solicit interest from qualified consulting firms to assist SCTCA and City of Healdsburg in performing the speed limit reduction evaluation. City of Healdsburg Public Works staff participated in the consultant selection process. The consulting firms of Mark Thomas and Fehr and Peers were selected in October of 2024, and a project kick-off meeting occurred in December 2024.

DISCUSSION/ANALYSIS:

The City of Healdsburg is among the first public agencies in Sonoma County to apply California’s new speed limit setting guidance to conduct a speed limit reduction evaluation. The evaluation, which was funded as part of a USDOT Safe Streets for All grant awarded to SCTCA and the City, is consistent with Assembly Bill 43, other related speed limit reduction assembly bill updates, as well as the 2014 California Manual on Uniform Traffic Control Devices (CA MUTCD), revision nine. To determine which City-maintained roadways could be prioritized for speed limit reductions, staff considered the following CA MUTCD criteria :

6.E
Packet Pg. 259

1. 85th Percentile Speed: Eligible for 5 mph reduction if nearest 5 mph increment requires rounding down.

2. Safety Corridor Designation: Eligible for 5 mph reduction.

3. Proximity to Bicyclist/Pedestrian Generators: Eligible for 5 mph reduction.

4. Business Activity District Designation: Eligible for 25 or 20 mph prima facie speed limit.

5. School Zone Designation: Eligible for 15 and 25 mph prima facie speed limits.

6. Senior Zone Designation: Eligible for 25 mph prima facie speed limit.

Thirty-five roadway segments were evaluated for potential speed limit reductions through the engineering and traffic survey process. The segments selected to be analyzed were primarily arterial and collector streets with higher traffic volumes and speeds, as well as areas with higher concentration of vulnerable users including school zones, the downtown core area, and locations with seniors. The engineering and traffic survey process takes the following speed limit setting criteria into account: 85th percentile speed, Safety Corridor designation, and proximity to bicyclist/pedestrian generators. Street segments that were not selected to be analyzed with this evaluation can be analyzed in the future and brought to the City Council for consideration. 85th Percentile Speed:

The engineering and traffic survey process requires local agencies to first conduct a study to collect vehicular speeds using a calibrated radar or other electronic speed measuring device. Per Section 2B.13, paragraph 27 of the CA MUTCD, speed surveys are to be conducted during offpeak traffic hours on a fair-weather weekday to capture “typical” conditions. Based on the cumulative measured speed data, the 85th percentile speed (i.e., the speed at which 85% of drivers are traveling at or below) is determined. Previously the speed was rounded to the nearest 5 mph increment. Under AB 43, the city is now explicitly authorized to round down to the nearest 5 mph increment.

Sample 85th percentile speeds and the application of the speed limit setting guidelines described above for local agency roadways and private roadways subject to the California Vehicle Code are shown in Table 1 of the technical memorandum on speed limit reduction methodology attached to this staff report.

Proximity to Bicyclist/Pedestrian Generators:

Proximity to bicyclist/pedestrian generators is one of two new options to reduce the speed limit by 5 mph. The other option is Safety Corridor designation, which will be discussed in the following section. Per the CA MUTCD, local authorities can apply a 5 mph speed limit reduction if the roadway is adjacent to any land or facility that generates high concentrations of bicyclists or pedestrians, especially those from vulnerable groups such as children, seniors, persons with disabilities, and the unhoused.

To meet this criterion, the roadway segment must have one or more bicyclist/pedestrian generators present within a distance of 1,320 feet. A list of qualifying bicyclist/pedestrian generators, which includes the presence of bicycle and pedestrian infrastructure, is provided in

6.E
Packet Pg. 260
Table 2 in the technical memorandum on speed limit reduction methodology attached to this staff report. If the roadway segment is longer than 1,320 feet, a minimum of one generator must be present for every 1,320 feet.

For the City of Healdsburg, this criterion was satisfied through existing sidewalk infrastructure alone (i.e., every quarter mile sub-segment evaluated had sidewalk present within a quarter mile).

Safety Corridor Designation:

Safety Corridor designation is the second of two new options (the first one being proximity to bicyclist/pedestrian generators as described above) to reduce the speed limit by 5 mph. The CA MUTCD defines a Safety Corridor as “a roadway segment within an overall roadway network where the highest number of serious injury and fatality crashes occur.” Per the CA MUTCD, Safety Corridors should not constitute more than 20% of a local jurisdiction’s overall roadway network. As part of this evaluation, the consultant provided the City of Healdsburg with a datadriven network of Safety Corridors eligible for this 5 mph reduction. A map of the City’s Safety Corridor Network can be found in Attachment A and the methodology and data sources used to develop this network can be found in Attachment B of the technical memorandum on speed limit reduction methodology attached to this staff report.

Prima Facie Zone:

In addition to the potential reductions explored through the engineering and traffic survey process, candidate roadways were also identified based on prima facie zone eligibility. A prima facie speed limit is generally defined as the speed limit on street segments where there are no speed limit signs posted, such as in residential neighborhoods. Each prima facie zone has a corresponding speed limit and a unique set of conditions that must be met for a local agency to declare a prima facie speed limit. Many prima facie zones are exempt from certain speed trap provisions and therefore do not require an engineering and traffic survey for radar enforcement.

The following prima facie zone types were considered as part of this evaluation: Business Activity District, School Zone, and Senior Zone.

Business Activity District Designation:

Per the CA MUTCD, local authorities can declare, by ordinance or resolution, a 25 or 20 mph prima facie speed limit on a roadway contiguous to a Business Activity District if the roadway has four or fewer travel lanes and meets one of the following conditions: 1. Maximum posted speed limit of 30 mph immediately prior to and after the Business Activity District, if establishing a 25 mph prima facie speed limit or 2. Maximum posted speed limit of 25 mph immediately prior to and after the Business Activity District, if establishing a 20 mph prima facie speed limit. The CA MUTCD defines a Business Activity District as “the portion of a highway and the property contiguous thereto that includes central or neighborhood downtowns, urban villages, or zoning designations that prioritize commercial land uses at the downtown or neighborhood scale.” To qualify as a Business Activity District, an area must meet at least three of the following four requirements:

6.E
Packet Pg. 261

1. No less than 50% of the contiguous property fronting the highway consists of retail or dining commercial uses, including outdoor dining, that open directly onto sidewalks adjacent to the highway.

2. Parking, including parallel, diagonal, or perpendicular spaces, located alongside the highway.

3. Traffic control signals or stop signs regulating traffic flow on the highway, located at intervals of no more than 600 feet.

4. Marked crosswalks not controlled by a traffic control device. Any roadway located within Downtown Healdsburg was evaluated for Business Activity District eligibility.

City staff defines downtown Healdsburg as the area bordered by Grove/Vine Street to the west, Piper Street to the north, Center Street and East Street to the east, and Mill Street to the south.

The recommendation is to reduce speed limits to 20 mph in the downtown core area where greater intensities of pedestrian and bicycle use are typically observed and to retain existing speed limits of 25 mph on the outskirts of the downtown core. A map of all roadway segments eligible for Business Activity District designation can be found in Attachment C in the technical memorandum on speed limit reduction methodology attached to this staff report.

School Zone Designation:

Per the updated CA MUTCD, local authorities can declare, by ordinance or resolution, a 20 or 15 mph prima facie speed limit within 500 feet of school grounds and an extended 25 mph prima facie speed limit within 500 to 1,000 feet from school grounds if the following criteria are met:

1. Roadway is in a residential district.

2. Roadway has a maximum posted speed limit of 30 mph before and after the school zone.

3. Roadway has a maximum of two through traffic lanes (one in each direction or two in one direction).

In California, school speed limits apply when children are present. If the school grounds are separated from the roadway by a fence, gate, or other physical barrier, the school speed limits should be enforced when children are going to or leaving the school, either during school hours or during the noon recess hour. If the school grounds are not separated from the roadway by a fence, gate, or other physical barrier, the school speed limits should be enforced whenever the school grounds are in use by children. Enforcement of school speed limits is ultimately at the discretion of the police officer. Any roadway contiguous to a school building or school grounds in the City was evaluated for school zone eligibility. A map of all eligible school zones can be found in Attachment D in the technical memorandum on speed limit reduction methodology attached to this staff report.

Senior Zone Designation:

Per the CA MUTCD, local authorities can establish a 25 mph prima facie speed limit in a senior zone. The CA MUTCD defines a senior zone as “an area approaching or passing a senior center building or other facility primarily used by senior citizens, or the grounds thereof that is

6.E
Packet Pg. 262
contiguous to a highway.” Matheson Street, which is contiguous to the Healdsburg Senior Center, and Grove Street, which is contiguous to Healdsburg Senior Living, were evaluated for senior zone eligibility. A map of all eligible senior zones can be found in Attachment E in the technical memorandum on speed limit reduction methodology attached to this staff report.

Enforcement:

The proposed recommendations were reviewed and are supported by the Healdsburg Police Department. Speed enforcement is provided throughout the city. Targeted speed enforcement is typically complaint driven based at locations throughout the city. As time allows, officers will proactively conduct speed enforcement in areas of the City with higher traffic volumes or known speeding issues. The proposed recommendations would provide for reduced speeds while balancing speed enforcement expectations and enforcement tolerances (i.e. radar gun limitations). The updated engineering and traffic surveys provide the Police Department staff with supporting documentation in the event a speeding citation is challenged in court.

Recommendation:

City staff recommends speed limits be reduced on the street segments shown in the following table. Street segments evaluated as part of this study that are not listed in the table below are proposed to remain the same and are listed in the attached Evaluation Summary Table and Exhibit A to the ordinance. No increases to speed limits are proposed as part of this study.

ENVIRONMENTAL STEWARDSHIP:

Not applicable.

ALTERNATIVES:

It is recommended the City Council adopt an ordinance approving the updated traffic and engineering surveys and reducing speed limits as recommended. Not passing this ordinance will result in speed limits remaining as they currently are posted. Alternatively, Council could provide direction to staff to reduce speed limit as allowed per the speed limit reduction evaluation shown in the evaluation summary table.

FISCAL IMPACT:

This speed limit reduction evaluation was funded through the Safe Streets for All planning grant awarded to SCTCA on December 13, 2023. The City of Healdsburg partnered with SCTCA for this evaluation. The dollar amount of SCTCA grant for this evaluation was $60,000 and the City’s required funding match for this study was $12,000.

There will be expenses to the streets fund to purchase and install new speed limit signs and update speed limit pavement markings for the street segments in which the speed limit is decreased, as well installation of changed conditions ahead signage. The cost for new sign installation and updated pavement markings will be further refined but is estimated to be approximately $10,000. Costs are not anticipated until Fiscal Year 2025-26 and sufficient appropriations exist in the adopted budget.

ENVIRONMENTAL ANALYSIS:

This action is not subject to the California Environmental Quality Act (CEQA) pursuant to Sections 15060 (c)(2) the activity will not result in a direct or reasonably foreseeable indirect physical change in the environment, and 15060 (c)(3) the activity is not a project as defined in section 15378 of the CEQA guidelines (Title 14, Chapter 3 of the California Code of Regulations) because it has no potential for resulting in physical change to the environment, either directly or indirectly. Finally, if adoption of this Ordinance is deemed to be a project, it is also exempt from CEQA under the exemption set forth in Section 15301(c), which provides that CEQA does not apply to actions that affect existing facilities (in this case, streets), but do not include any expansion of that facility.

AN ORDINANCE OF THE CITY COUNCIL OF THE CITY OF
HEALDSBURG AMENDING SECTION 10.50.050 OF THE

HEALDSBURG MUNICIPAL CODE, PRIMA FACIE STREETS

ESTABLISHED BY ENGINEERING AND TRAFFIC SURVEY
(REGARDING SPEED LIMITS IN THE CITY OF

HEALDSBURG)
The City Council of the City of Healdsburg does herby ordain as follows:

SECTION 1. Findings.

The City Council finds as follows:

A. On October 8, 2021, Assembly Bill 43 was signed into law, giving local agencies increased flexibility and authority to reduce speed limits on locally controlled, public roadways. Assembly Bill 43 allows local agencies to consider a wider range of factors when setting speed limits, including roadway classification, land use, crash rates, and bicyclist or pedestrian activity. The law emphasizes the need to consider the roadway context when setting speed limits, especially in urban areas and/or areas where vulnerable road users are present. Shortly after Assembly Bill 43 was signed into law, Assembly Bill 382, Assembly Bill 1014, and Assembly Bill 1938 were signed into law, and the California Manual on Uniform Traffic Control Devices (CA MUTCD) was updated to incorporate the provisions of Assembly Bill 43.

B. California Vehicle Code section 40802 requires the use of radar (or any other electronic device that measures the speed of moving objects) for enforcement of declared prima facie speed limits be justified by an engineering and traffic survey conducted no more than seven years, or fourteen years old if an engineering and traffic survey was conducted more than seven years prior to the date of the alleged violation, and a registered engineer evaluates the section of the highway and determines that no significant changes in roadway or traffic conditions have occurred, including but not limited to, changes in adjoining property or land use, roadway width, or traffic volume.

C. Cal. Vehicle Code sections 22357 and 22358 further allow the City to determine and declare prima facie speed limits, by ordinance, that increase or decrease existing prima facie speed limits, provided that the revised prima facie speed limits are determined on the basis of an engineering and traffic survey.

D. In May of 2023, the City of Healdsburg, amongst other local agencies in Sonoma County, collaborated with staff from the Sonoma County Transportation and Climate Action Authority (SCTCA) to apply for a planning grant through the U.S. Department of Transportation Safe Streets for All program. The program is aimed at preventing roadway deaths and serious injuries by creating safer roadways for all users. On December 13, 2023, the SCTCA issued a press release that it was awarded a planning grant in the amount of $1,060,000 through the Safe Streets for All program to conduct planning and carry out activities related to transportation safety within Sonoma County. The City of Healdsburg was allocated $124,000 of the grant to create Safe Routes to

School plan documents for four public and two private schools as well as perform a speed limit reduction study including the preparation of updated engineering and traffic surveys for various street segments in Healdsburg.

E. On August 19, 2024, the Healdsburg City Council adopted Resolution No. 97-2024 authorizing the City Manager to execute a cooperative funding agreement with the SCTCA to contribute the required local agency match funding for the study. The City of Healdsburg entered into the cooperative agreement with the SCTCA on September 16, 2024.

F. The Public Works Department working with the consulting engineer contracted through the Sonoma County Transportation and Climate Action Authority, and with support from the Healdsburg Police Department, performed a speed limit reduction evaluation which included an update of its engineering and traffic surveys and an evaluation of existing speed limits on thirty-five street segments within the City of Healdsburg and updated engineering and traffic surveys in accordance with the newly added Vehicle Code sections, and have recommended updates listed in Exhibit A to this ordinance.

G. The City Council finds that the adjustments to the speed limits as outlined in this Ordinance will facilitate the orderly movement of traffic and be reasonable and safe for the community.

SECTION 2. Amendment of Section 10.50.050 of the Healdsburg Municipal Code.

Section 10.50.050 of the Healdsburg Municipal Code, including its title, is hereby amended to read in its entirety as shown on Exhibit A to this ordinance, attached hereto and incorporated herein by reference.

SECTION 3. Compliance with the California Environmental Quality Act.

For purposes of the California Environmental Quality Act (Public Resources Code Section 21000, et seq.), a “project” is defined in State CEQA Guidelines Section 15378 (a) as “the whole of an action, which has a potential for resulting in either a direct physical change in the environment, or a reasonably foreseeable indirect physical change in the environment”. The City Council hereby finds that the action to adopt this ordinance will not result in any change in the environment and thus is not a project subject to the requirements of CEQA. Further, even if the action to adopt this ordinance was deemed to be a project subject to CEQA, the City Council finds the proposed ordinance is exempt from CEQA under the common sense exemption set forth in Section 15061(b)(3), which provides that CEQA only applies to projects which have the potential for causing a significant effect on the environment, and thus where it can be seen with certainty that there is no possibility that the activity in question may have a significant effect on the environment, the activity is not subject to CEQA. Finally, if adoption of this Ordinance is deemed to be a project, it is also exempt from CEQA under the exemption set forth in Section 15301(c), which provides that CEQA does not apply to actions that make changes to existing facilities (in this case, streets), but do not expand the facility.

Introduction
Speed is one of the main contributing factors to the severity of collisions. Higher travel speeds on public streets not only increase the likelihood of being involved in a collision, but they also increase the severity of injuries sustained by all road users involved in a collision, as shown in Figure 1.

Figure 1: Relationship between Vehicle Speed, Collisions, and Fatalities1 For this reason, many agencies across the country are adopting the Safe System Approach, 2 which
includes Safe Speeds as one of its five core elements. Notably, the U.S. Department of Transportation (USDOT), California Department of Transportation (Caltrans), and Sonoma County Transportation and Climate Authority (SCTCA) have adopted the Safe System Approach. The Safe 1 https://scag.ca.gov/sites/main/files/file-attachments/cal-guidance-hin-090221.pdf?1633549750 2 https://www.transportation.gov/NRSS/SafeSystem

System Approach emphasizes that lower speeds reduce the force of impact in the event a collision occurs, thereby reducing the severity of injuries.

In October 2021, Assembly Bill (AB) 43 was signed into law, giving local agencies increased flexibility and authority to reduce speed limits on locally controlled, public roadways. AB 43 allows local agencies to consider a wider range of factors when setting speed limits, including roadway classification, land use, crash rates, and bicyclist or pedestrian activity. The law emphasizes the need to consider the roadway context when setting speed limits, especially in urban areas and/or areas where vulnerable road users are present. Shortly after AB 43 was signed into law, the California Manual on Uniform Traffic Control Devices (CA MUTCD) was updated to incorporate the provisions of AB 43.

The City of Healdsburg (herein referred to as “the City”) is among the first agencies in Sonoma County to apply California’s new speed limit setting guidance to conduct a Speed Limit Reduction Evaluation (SLRE). The SLRE, which was funded as part of a USDOT Safe Streets and Roads for All (SS4A) grant awarded to SCTCA and the City, is consistent with AB 43 and the 2014 CA MUTCD, Revision 9. To determine which City-maintained roadways could be prioritized for speed limit reductions, the following CA MUTCD criteria were considered:
- 85th Percentile Speed: Eligible for 5 mph reduction if nearest 5 mph increment requires rounding down
- Safety Corridor Designation: Eligible for 5 mph reduction - Proximity to Bicyclist/Pedestrian Generators: Eligible for 5 mph reduction - Business Activity District Designation: Eligible for 25 or 20 mph prima facie speed limit - School Zone Designation: Eligible for 15 and 25 mph prima facie speed limits - Senior Zone Designation: Eligible for 25 mph prima facie speed limit This memo describes the methodology used to conduct the City’s SLRE through two distinct processes: Engineering and Traffic Survey (E&TS) Evaluation and Prima Facie Zone Evaluation.

E&TS Evaluation
The City provided a list of 31 roadway segments to be evaluated for potential speed limit reductions through the E&TS process. This process takes the following speed limit setting criteria into account: 85th percentile speed, Safety Corridor designation, and proximity to bicyclist/pedestrian generators.
85th Percentile Speed
The E&TS process requires local agencies to first conduct an E&TS to collect vehicular speeds using a calibrated radar or other electronic speed measuring device. Per Section 2B.13, paragraph 27 of the CA MUTCD, speed surveys are to be conducted during off-peak traffic hours on a fair6.E.d Packet Pg. 274 Attachment: Technical Memorandum Speed Limit Reduction Evaluation Summary (4898 : Speed Limit Reduction Evaluation) City of Healdsburg

3 weather weekday to capture “typical” conditions. Based on the cumulative measured speed data, the 85th percentile speed (i.e., the speed at which 85% of drivers are traveling at or below) is determined, then rounded according to the rules below:

1. If the nearest 5 mph increment of the 85th percentile speed requires rounding up, the posted speed limit can be rounded down to the nearest 5 mph increment below the 85th percentile speed, if no further reduction is used.
3 2. If the nearest 5 mph increment of the 85th percentile speed requires rounding down, the roadway qualifies for an additional 5 mph speed reduction (i.e., the posted speed limit can be reduced by 5 mph from the nearest 5 mph increment of the 85th percentile speed).4
Sample 85th percentile speeds and the application of the speed limit setting guidelines described above for local agency roadways and private roadways subject to the California Vehicle Code (CVC) are shown in Table 1. E&TS data from 2018 to 20255 served as the basis for the City’s SLRE.

Table 1: Examples Showing Applicability of Rounding and Additional Speed Reduction on Local Agency’s Roadways & Private Property Subjected to CVC * Note – CVC Sections 22358.7, 22358.8 & 22358.9 are applicable to local agency roadways and private properties subjected to CVC, they are not applicable to the State Highway System. Refer to Section 2B.13 for more details.

Source: CA MUTCD 2014 Edition, Revision 9, Chapter 2B, Table 2B-104(CA) 3 Further reductions that preclude this rounding do not include the “Safety Corridor” or “proximity to bicyclist/pedestrian generators” designations as described in the following sections. See CA MUTCD Section 2B.13, paragraph 12l and 12m.
4 If the speed limit to be posted has had this 5 mph reduction applied, the corresponding E&TS must document in writing the conditions and justification for the lower speed limit. These conditions should be in compliance with CVC Sections 627 and 22358.5 and approved by a registered Civil or Traffic Engineer. 5 Per the CA MUTCD, any existing E&TS that was performed before January 1, 2022 is not required to be updated until due for reevaluation five (5), seven (7), or 14 years from the date of the survey.

Proximity to Bicyclist/Pedestrian Generators
Proximity to bicyclist/pedestrian generators is one of two new options to reduce the speed limit by 5 mph.6 The other option is Safety Corridor designation, which will be discussed in the following section. Per the CA MUTCD, local authorities can apply a 5-mph speed limit reduction if the roadway is adjacent to any land or facility that generates high concentrations of bicyclists or pedestrians, especially those from vulnerable groups such as children, seniors, persons with disabilities, and the unhoused.

To meet this criterion, the roadway segment must have one (1) or more bicyclist/pedestrian generators present within a distance of 1,320 feet. A list of qualifying bicyclist/pedestrian generators, which includes the presence of bicycle and pedestrian infrastructure, is provided in Table 2.
7 If the roadway segment is longer than 1,320 feet, a minimum of one (1) generator must be present for every 1,320 feet.

For the City, this criterion was satisfied through existing sidewalk infrastructure alone (i.e., every quarter mile sub-segment evaluated had sidewalk present within a quarter mile). 6 The two options for lowering the speed limit by 5 mph, “Safety Corridor” and “proximity to bicyclist/pedestrian generators” designation, are presented in tandem in the CA MUTCD, meaning that whether a roadway satisfies one or both criteria, it is eligible for a reduction of no more than 5 mph. 7 Per the CA MUTCD, crash data that demonstrates a roadway segment is within the top 20% of the local jurisdiction’s pedestrian and/or bicyclist fatalities or serious injuries over a three to five-year period can be used in lieu of one of the generators listed in Table 2. If the roadway segment is longer than 1,320 feet, a minimum of one (1) location within the top 20% of pedestrian and/or bicyclist fatal or serious injury crashes must be present for every 1,320 feet. This metric is most suitable for jurisdictions with dense pedestrian and bicyclist activity (and therefore a high concentration of crashes). This metric was not used for Vista given that the City’s pedestrian and bicyclist activity is spread out over a large geography.

Source: CA MUTCD 2014 Edition, Revision 9, Chapter 2B, Table 2B-106(CA) Safety Corridor Designation
Safety Corridor designation is the second of two new options (the first one being proximity to bicyclist/pedestrian generators as described above) to reduce the speed limit by 5 mph. The CA MUTCD defines a Safety Corridor as “a roadway segment within an overall roadway network where the highest number of serious injury and fatality crashes occur.” Per the CA MUTCD, Safety Corridors should not constitute more than 20% of a local jurisdiction’s overall roadway network.

As part of this evaluation, Fehr & Peers provided the City with a data-driven network of Safety Corridors eligible for this 5 mph reduction. A map of the City’s Safety Corridor Network can be found in Attachment A. The methodology and data sources used to develop this network can be found in Attachment B.

Prima Facie Zone Evaluation
In addition to the potential reductions explored through the E&TS process, candidate roadways were also identified based on prima facie zone eligibility. Each prima facie zone has a corresponding speed limit and a unique set of conditions that must be met for a local agency to declare a prima facie speed limit. Many prima facie zones are exempt from certain speed trap provisions and therefore do not require an E&TS for radar enforcement. The following prima facie zone types were considered as part of this evaluation: Business Activity District, School Zone, and Senior Zone.

Business Activity District Designation
Per the CA MUTCD, local authorities can declare, by ordinance or resolution, a 25 or 20 mph prima facie speed limit on a roadway contiguous to a Business Activity District if the roadway has four (4) or fewer travel lanes and meets one of the following conditions:

1. Maximum posted speed limit of 30 mph immediately prior to and after the Business Activity District, if establishing a 25 mph prima facie speed limit.

2. Maximum posted speed limit of 25 mph immediately prior to and after the Business Activity District, if establishing a 20 mph prima facie speed limit.

The CA MUTCD defines a Business Activity District as “the portion of a highway and the property contiguous thereto that includes central or neighborhood downtowns, urban villages, or zoning designations that prioritize commercial land uses at the downtown or neighborhood scale.” To qualify as a Business Activity District, an area must meet at least three (3) of the following four (4) requirements:

1. No less than 50% of the contiguous property fronting the highway consists of retail or dining commercial uses, including outdoor dining, that open directly onto sidewalks adjacent to the highway.

2. Parking, including parallel, diagonal, or perpendicular spaces, located alongside the highway.

3. Traffic control signals or stop signs regulating traffic flow on the highway, located at intervals of no more than 600 feet.

4. Marked crosswalks not controlled by a traffic control device.

Any roadway located within Downtown Healdsburg was evaluated for Business Activity District eligibility. City staff defines Downtown Healdsburg as the area bordered by Grove/Vine Street to the west, Grant Street to the north, Center Street and East Street to the east, and Mill Street to the south. A map of all roadway segments eligible for Business Activity District designation can be found in Attachment C.

School Zone Designation
Per the CA MUTCD, local authorities can declare, by ordinance or resolution, a 20 or 15 mph prima facie speed limit within 500 feet of school grounds and an extended 25 mph prima facie speed limit within 500 to 1,000 feet from school grounds if the following criteria are met:

1. Roadway is in a residential district.

2. Roadway has a maximum posted speed limit of 30 mph before and after the school zone.

3. Roadway has a maximum of two (2) through traffic lanes (one in each direction or two in one direction).

In California, school speed limits apply when children are present. If the school grounds are separated from the roadway by a fence, gate, or other physical barrier, the school speed limits should be enforced when children are going to or leaving the school, either during school hours or during the noon recess hour. If the school grounds are not separated from the roadway by a fence, gate, or other physical barrier, the school speed limits should be enforced whenever the school grounds are in use by children.8 Enforcement of school speed limits is ultimately at the discretion of the police officer.

Any roadway contiguous to a school building or school grounds in the city was evaluated for school zone eligibility. A map of all eligible school zones can be found in Attachment D.

Senior Zone Designation
Per the CA MUTCD, local authorities can establish a 25 mph prima facie speed limit in a senior zone. The CA MUTCD defines a senior zone as “an area approaching or passing a senior center building or other facility primarily used by senior citizens, or the grounds thereof that is contiguous to a highway.”
Matheson Street, which is contiguous to the Healdsburg Senior Center, and Grove Street, which is contiguous to Healdsburg Senior Living, were evaluated for senior zone eligibility. A map of all eligible senior zones can be found in Attachment E.

Speed Limit Recommendations
Based on the results of the SLRE, City staff recommends a posted speed limit reduction of at least 5 mph on 27 of the 31 roadway segments evaluated. Full evaluation results and recommendations from City staff can be found in Attachment F. In accordance with CVC Section 22358.6, paragraph 12c, all recommended speed limits are within 12.4 mph of the 85th percentile speed on their respective roadways.

Safety Corridor Guidance Considerations
A Safety Corridor is defined as a roadway segment within an overall roadway network where the highest number of fatal and serious injury (KSI) crashes occur. Per the CA MUTCD, Safety Corridors should represent a prioritized subset of a local jurisdiction’s overall roadway network and therefore cannot exceed 20% of the local jurisdiction’s roadways. A Safety Corridor Network should be consistent with the following requirements:
• Developed using at least one of the crash weighting factors listed in Table B1 • Identifies specific locations with high crash occurrences • Identifies corridor-level segments with a pattern of crash reoccurrence • Able to be stratified by mode
For more information on Safety Corridors, refer to CVC Section 22358.7(a)(1) of the CA MUTCD. 1 Table B1: Safety Corridor Factors

The City of Healdsburg’s Safety Corridor Network was developed using the most recent five (5) years of crash data (2019-2023) from SafeTREC’s Transportation Injury Mapping System (TIMS). 2 Only injury crashes on City-maintained, at-grade public roadways were included in the analysis (i.e., Property Damage Only crashes were excluded).

Disadvantaged Communities
The California Department of Transportation’s (Caltrans) Transportation Equity Index (EQI) was used to identify transportation-based priority populations (TBPPs) at the Census block level.

TBPPs represent the populations that are most burdened by traffic exposure, but also benefit the least from the multimodal transportation network (as measured by access to destinations). The EQI integrates transportation and socioeconomic indicators into three (3) screens, all of which reflect low-income status and Tribal Land status.

Vulnerable Populations by Age
Census block group-level demographic data from the most recent five-year American Community Survey (ACS) estimates (2019-2023) were used to identify vulnerable populations in the city.

Consistent with Table 2B-105(CA) of the CA MUTCD and CalEPA’s methodology for designating disadvantaged communities, a vulnerable population was defined as a Census block group that ranks in the top 25% of the City’s overall population of seniors and youth. The CA MUTCD defines seniors as individuals age 65 and older and youth as individuals under the age of 15.

Schools
The California School Campus Database (CSCD), as well as the Schools dataset from the County of Sonoma’s Open Data Portal, were used to identify public and private schools in the city.

Safety Corridor Methodology
The methodology for developing the City of Healdsburg’s Safety Corridor Network uses a proactive approach that involves incorporating crash factors in addition to known location-based risk factors, rather than relying solely on crash history. The methodology also incorporates the Highway Safety Manual (HSM)-recommended Sliding Window method3 that is referenced in the CA MUTCD. The Sliding Window method is a network screening method that uses overlapping 2 The Transportation Injury Mapping System (TIMS) was developed by SafeTREC to provide quick, easy, and free access to California crash data, the Statewide Integrated Traffic Records System (SWITRS), that has been geo-coded by SafeTREC to make it easy to map crashes. 3 AASHTO, Highway Safety Manual, 1st Edition (2010), Chapter 4 Network Screening, p. 4-15.

roadway segments, or “windows,” to help smooth any errors in crash location reporting. For the City of Healdsburg, the City’s roadway network was converted into overlapping, ¼-mile segments.

Each segment was then scored based on the severity and density of crashes within 50 feet of it, as well as several other contextual factors. The scoring factors that were applied to all roadway segments to develop the City’s Safety Corridor Network are summarized in the following sections.

Crash Factors
The methodology used involves assigning a weight to certain types of crashes. For this analysis, each crash was assessed based on the following factors: crash severity, mode, and victim age.

Crash Severity
The scoring factor with the greatest influence on Safety Corridor prioritization is crash severity.

Crash severity weights were derived from 2024 Caltrans Local Roadway Safety Manual (LRSM) crash costs by crash severity level. This method is similar to the HSM Equivalent Property Damage Only (EPDO) weighting method,4 except it uses the “Complaint of Pain” severity level as its baseline since Property Damage Only (PDO) crashes were not included.

Cost assumptions included in the 2024 Caltrans LRSM are based on costs from the HSM First Edition, with costs adjusted to 2024 dollars. The HSM uses “comprehensive” or “societal” crash costs to associate crash costs with each crash severity level. Comprehensive costs include both economic costs and monetized pain and suffering costs. Economic costs are monetary costs associated with emergency services deployment, medical services, congestion impacts from a crash, productivity loss due to victim injury, insurance and legal costs, and property damage costs.

Monetized pain and suffering costs are an assumption of the costs associated with lost quality of life (or Quality-Adjusted Life Years), accounting for reductions in life expectancy and quality of life changes as a result of a crash.

Table B2 lists the estimated crash costs and weights for each severity level. This methodology uses all injury crashes in the Safety Corridor Network development process (as opposed to KSI crashes only).
4 The equivalent property damage only (EPDO) method assigns weighting factors related to the societal costs of fatal, injury, and property damage only crashes to crashes by severity to develop an equivalent property damage only score that considers frequency and severity of crashes. https://safety.fhwa.dot.gov/local_rural/training/fhwasa14072/sec4.cfm

Table B2: Crash Weights by Severity
Severity Crash Cost Crash Weight
Fatal and Severe Injury (KSI) $2,860,000* 26
Evident Injury – Other Visible $193,000 2**
Possible Injury – Complaint of Pain $110,000 1
*The fatal and severe injury (KSI) crash cost is an average of the location type costs (signalized intersections, nonsignalized intersections, roadway). **Rounded to the nearest whole number.

Vulnerable Victim Factors
Two (2) additional crash factors, mode and victim age, were also considered to account for discrepancies in crash reporting, specifically for vulnerable road users. As discussed in the Recommendations for California Statewide Guidance on High Injury Networks report,5 because police assessment of injury severity is based on an officer’s primarily visual assessment of a victim at the scene of a crash, victim injuries are commonly underreported. To offset some of those reporting discrepancies and prioritize vulnerable road users, crashes involving a bicyclist or pedestrian and/or a CA MUTCD-defined youth or senior victim were assigned a weight of 3 for a maximum potential vulnerable victim score of 6. The goal of this additional weight was to elevate the score for a crash reported as non-severe (evident injury or possible injury) if the crash involved a vulnerable road user.

Once a crash score had been assigned to each crash, each crash was then associated with a roadway segment(s) using a 50-foot buffer. Crashes within 50 feet of two roadway segments (e.g., at an intersection) were assigned twice, once to each segment. As shown in Table B3, the cumulative crash score for a single crash (taking into account crash severity and vulnerable victims involved) can range from 1 to 32.

Location-Based Risk Factors
In addition to the crash factors described above, three (3) location-based risk factors were evaluated for each roadway segment: disadvantaged communities, vulnerable populations by age, and school proximity. The predictive, contextual nature of these factors can help to identify locations with high risk, rather than just locations with a history of KSI crashes. Segments within a disadvantaged community, a vulnerable population (by age), or a quarter mile of a school were assigned a weight of 3 for a maximum potential risk score of 9. For more information on the underlying data and methodologies used to assess these factors, see Safety Corridor Data Sources and Definitions on page B-2.

Overall Score: Safety Index
Cumulative scores for both crash and location-based risk factors were then summed together to calculate an overall Safety Index for each roadway segment. Based on the scoring for each variable shown in Table B3, the largest emphasis is on KSI crashes, with the other crash and location-based factors adding a nuance to the scoring that provides minor distinctions between the final scores for each segment. This nuance can help to manage the number of corridors that meet the cutoff for the final Safety Corridor Network without exceeding the CA MUTCD threshold of 20%.

School Proximity (within ¼ mile) 0 or 1 3
*A victim is defined as any person killed or injured as the result of a crash.

Building the Network
Once a Safety Index had been assigned to each roadway segment, the highest scoring segments were identified according to CA MUTCD guidance, which states that Safety Corridors should not constitute more than 20% of the overall roadway network. Healdsburg’s Safety Corridor Network constitutes 19.9% of the overall roadway network and accounts for 100% of KSI crashes.

Smoothing the Network
Finally, a “smoothed” network was created by filling gaps and correcting anomalies in the resulting Safety Corridor Network. Any Safety Corridor links less than 1,000 feet in length were removed from the final network. If a non-Safety Corridor link less than ½ mile existed between

two (2) Safety Corridor links, it was added to the final network. Consideration was also given to locations where the City plans to implement additional bicycle and/or pedestrian infrastructure if adjacent to a Safety Corridor link.

CITY OF HEALDSBURG

CITY COUNCIL AGENDA STAFF REPORT
MEETING DATE: June 16, 2025
SUBJECT: Annual Striping and Signage Contract
PREPARED BY: Curt Bates, Principal Engineer
STRATEGIC INITIATIVE(S):

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

Adopt a Resolution awarding the Striping and Signage Maintenance Contract to Bayside Stripe and Seal, and Authorizing the City Manager to Execute the Contract for a Not-To-Exceed Amount of $75,000 for FY 25/26 and Four Annual Extensions for an Annual Not-To-Exceed Amount of $55,000.

COMMUNITY ENGAGEMENT/OUTREACH:

A notice inviting bids for the project was advertised in the Press Democrat, on the City’s website, and was sent to all contractors on the City’s Qualified Bidders List and to the Local Builder’s Exchanges.

BACKGROUND:

One of the strategic initiatives adopted by the City Council is to “Maintain and Improve Infrastructure and Facilities.” The initiative states that “Healdsburg will initiate action necessary to catch up on the deferred maintenance of City facilities and infrastructure including streets, sidewalks, parks, utility infrastructure, and buildings. The City will also develop a program for long-term maintenance that includes a system for establishing priorities among projects and maintenance services and needs.” The striping and signage maintenance project is consistent with the City’s strategic initiative.

To facilitate the repair and replacement of striping and signage, the City uses an on-call contract.

The contract is based on unit prices for the various items of work, with the actual quantities and locations designated by work orders issued throughout the year on an as needed basis. In the event the contract is extended the unit prices may be adjusted based on the Engineering News Record’s construction cost index, however it will not increase to a dollar amount above the notto-exceed annual amount.

6.F
Packet Pg. 301
DISCUSSION/ANALYSIS:

The project consists of various maintenance items related to striping and signage throughout the City. The work generally consists of traffic markings to Caltrans standards, parking stall markings, regulatory sign installation and removal to City standards, curb painting, and the removal of existing markings and other such items of work as are required to complete the project in accordance with this contract and the project plans and technical specifications.

Per the bid documents, “The estimate of the quantities of work to be done is approximate only, being as a basis for the comparison of bids, and the City does not expressly or by implication agree that the actual amount of work will correspond therewith, and the City reserves the right to increase or decrease the amount or any portion of the work as directed by the engineer.” The notice inviting bids for the project was published on April 15, 2025, and April 19, 2025, with the public bid opening on May 13, 2025. The City received one bid, from Bayside Stripe & Seal.

The bid summary is attached.

The bid from Bayside Stripe & Seal satisfies the bidding requirements for the project as described in the bid instructions. There are no irregularities with the bid. Staff has verified that Bayside Stripe & Seal possesses the required license(s) and is otherwise qualified to perform the work. Based on this information, staff have determined that Bayside Stripe & Seal’s bid is responsive. The City previously budgeted $40,000 annually for the striping maintenance contract and there is $40,000 per year appropriated in the currently approved FY 24/25 and 25/26 budgets. However, unit pricing cost of materials and labor has increased over the past several years and previously allocated funding is not sufficient to keep up with the demand for deferred striping and signage maintenance. Additionally, there are two striping and signage one-time projects scheduled for FY 25/26. One project is the red curb daylighting project which is anticipated to cost $20,000 and the other project is the speed limit sign replacement project which is anticipated cost $10,000. Both one-time projects are scheduled to be implemented in summer of 2025. Public Works staff are also reviewing the condition of existing traffic signage at signalized intersections and intends to use remaining available funding to replace traffic signage as required. Additionally, $5,000 per year is requested for restriping of parking lots at City-owned building facilities.

Staff recommends the City Council accept the unit pricing in the bid schedule and award a striping and signage maintenance contract for a not-to-exceed annual amount of $75,000 for FY 25/26 and a not-to-exceed annual amount of $55,000 for FY 26/27 through FY 29/30 to Bayside Stripe & Seal.

ENVIRONMENTAL STEWARDSHIP:

Section 12-1.04 of the Project Additional Provisions (12-1.04) include general requirements and procedures for compliance with California State Water Resources Control Board pursuant to National Pollutant Discharge Elimination System (NPDES) General Permit for Storm Water Discharges Associated with Construction and Land Disturbance Activities Order No. 2009-0009- DWQ, NPDES No. CAS000002 (“General Permit”) adopted pursuant to regulations adopted by the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency (USEPA) on November 16, 1990 and codified in 40 Code of Federal Regulations Parts 122, 123, 124.

6.F
Packet Pg. 302
ALTERNATIVES:

The City Council could choose not to adopt the recommended resolution. If such an alternative is chosen, additional direction to staff is requested.

FISCAL IMPACT:

Sufficient appropriations are included in the FY 25/26 budget for all affected departments and appropriations for the remaining 4-year extensions for FY 26/27 through FY 29/30 will be included in future proposed budgets. No additional appropriations are requested at this time. The proposed breakdown of not-to-exceed annual dollar amounts for each department is as follows:

CITY OF HEALDSBURG

CITY COUNCIL AGENDA STAFF REPORT
MEETING DATE: June 16, 2025
SUBJECT: Reorganization of the Water and Wastewater Utility Divisions and Adjustments to the Utilities Director Position
PREPARED BY: Nicole Lopez, Chief Human Resources Officer STRATEGIC INITIATIVE(S):

Provide Effective Governance
RECOMMENDED ACTION(S):

Adopt a Resolution approving the restructuring of the Water and Wastewater Utilities Division to report to the Public Works Department and reclassifying the Utilities Director position to the Electric Director on the authorized position list.

COMMUNITY ENGAGEMENT/OUTREACH:

Not applicable.

BACKGROUND:

The City of Healdsburg Municipal Code (HMC) Section 2.12.080 C. states, “it shall be the duty and responsibility of the City Manager to recommend to the City Council such reorganization of offices, positions, departments or units under his direction as may be indicated in the interest of efficient, effective and economical conduct of the City’s business.” DISCUSSION/ANALYSIS:

In April 2025, the Utilities Director resigned from the City of Healdsburg. The position was responsible for managing the following divisions: water, wastewater, and electric utilities.

This resignation provided an opportunity for the City to analyze the Utilities Department and assess the most effective way to address potential leadership gaps prior to recruitment.

Filling a Utilities Director position is challenging, particularly in Healdsburg, where the City operates as a full-service utilities provider – overseeing electric, water, and wastewater divisions.

This structure is rare among municipalities. Recognizing the unique operational demands of having full-service utilities, the City Manager recommends operational restructuring to position to enhance operational oversight and increase the City’s ability to attract and recruit top-talent in

6.G
Packet Pg. 309
a highly competitive market.

After review, the City Manager recommends the following:

1. Restructure of the Water and Wastewater Utilities divisions to the Public Works Department
o Transfer the Water and Wastewater division from the Utilities Department to the Public Works Department.
o Operational oversight, staffing, budgeting, and capital project management for these services will be handled by the Public Works Department going forward.

2. Reclassify Utilities Director to Electric Utilities Director o Reclassify the Utilities Director to Electric Utilities Director to reflect the revised scope of responsibility focused solely on electric utility operations.

Operational Considerations for Change
Under the current structure, water acquisition and wastewater treatment plant operations fall under the Utilities Department whereas water distribution and wastewater collection including any repairs to underground infrastructure (e.g. water line breaks) fall under the Public Works Department. The proposed change returns to the pre-2014 structure in which Public Works oversees the entirety of Water and Wastewater utility functions. This change in structure strengthens operational oversight and promotes greater alignment among field crew operations.

With this transition, the Water and Wastewater staff will now have the Public Works Director serving as their department head. The only change in reporting structure involves the Water & Wastewater Operations Superintendent and the Utilities Engineering Manager, who will now report directly to the Director of Public Works. All other operational roles, responsibilities, and reporting relationships will remain unchanged.

Strategic Considerations for Change
For many years, the City of Healdsburg benefited from the unique expertise of a Utilities Director who possessed experience across all three utility disciplines – electric, water and wastewater. With the recent vacancy in that position, staff took the opportunity to evaluate how best to fill the leadership gap, considering several key factors: the ease of recruitment, the increasing complexity of electric utility regulations, and the opportunity to improve operational efficiencies across both the Public Works and Utilities departments.

The recommended restructuring involves establishing a stand-alone Electric Utilities Department, which allows for a more focused and streamlined approach to managing electric operations. This change is expected to enhance oversight, support regulatory compliance, and improve service delivery. Moreover, it allows the City to tailor its recruitment efforts specifically for electric utility leadership, thereby increasing the likelihood of a successful hire.

Municipal electric departments are relatively rare, with only a small number of public agencies across the state offering in-house electric services. As a result, the candidate pool for experienced municipal electric utility leaders is highly competitive and relatively limited. This restructuring

6.G
Packet Pg. 310
positions the City to better navigate that challenge by focusing its efforts on finding a specialized leader equipped to guide Healdsburg’s electric utility into the future.

ENVIRONMENTAL STEWARDSHIP:

Not applicable.

ALTERNATIVES:

Keep the existing structure.

FISCAL IMPACT:

None.

ENVIRONMENTAL ANALYSIS:

Pursuant to Section 15378(b)(5) of the State 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
RESOLUTION NO. __-2025

A RESOLUTION OF THE CITY COUNCIL OF THE CITY OF

HEALDSBURG APPROVING A RESTRUCTURE OF THE

WATER AND WASTEWATER UTILITIES DIVISION TO THE

PUBLIC WORKS DEPARTMENT AND RECLASSIFICATION

OF THE UTILITIES DIRECTOR TO THE ELECTRIC

UTILITIES DIRECTOR
WHEREAS, the City of Healdsburg strives to continually improve efficiency and effectiveness of its municipal operations; and
WHEREAS, the Water and Wastewater divisions have historically been a part of the City’s Public Works department and were subsequently moved to the Utilities Department; and WHEREAS, an internal review has determined that reintegrating the Water and Wastewater divisions into the Public Works Department will increase operational efficiency, and streamline service delivery; and
WHEREAS, the City’s Utilities Department currently oversees electric, water and wastewater services, and transitioning water and wastewater operations to Public Works allows the remaining department functions to focus exclusively on electric utility operations; and WHEREAS, renaming the Utilities Department and thus the Utilities Director to the Electric Utility Department and the Electric Utility Department Director will more accurately reflect the revised scope of responsibilities and bring the City’s organizational structure in line with common industry practices among similarly sized municipalities; and WHEREAS, none of the positions affected by the proposed restructuring are represented by a bargaining unit; and
WHEREAS, the City Council finds that these changes are in the best interest of the public and will contribute to a more efficient and responsive municipal government.

NOW, THEREFORE, BE IT RESOLVED that the City Council of the City of Healdsburg hereby:

1. Approves the restructuring of the Water and Wastewater Utilities Division to the Public Works Department, as detailed herein; and

2. Authorizes the reclassification of Utilities Director to Electric Utilities Director.

CITY COUNCIL AGENDA STAFF REPORT
MEETING DATE: June 16, 2025
SUBJECT: L&M Village Quarterly Update
PREPARED BY: Griselda Villarreal, Administrative Analyst II STRATEGIC INITIATIVE(S):

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

Receive the L&M Village Quarterly Update.

COMMUNITY ENGAGEMENT/OUTREACH:

This item will be heard at a public meeting where time is set aside for public comment and participation. City staff and Reach for Home will continue to keep open communication with the neighbors of the project and the community at large with quarterly updates and as information is requested or needed. The most recent quarterly report was presented to the City Council on April 7, 2025.

BACKGROUND:

On October 26, 2021, the County of Sonoma approved $950,000 in Capital Match funding and $3,388,660 in operating subsidy for the L&M Village, as part of the Project Homekey Round-2 funding.

On December 21, 2021, the City, Reach for Home, and Burbank Housing were awarded a total of $7,048,800 in Project Homekey funding by the State of California, consisting of $5,720,000 in capital funding and $1,328,800 in operating subsidy.

On February 16, 2022, the City executed the State Standard Agreement, and received the PHK-2 program funds on February 16, 2022.

On May 3, 2022, the City closed escrow on the purchase of the L&M Motel On November 21, 2022, the City adopted Resolution No. 173-2022, approving the Lease, Funding and Service Agreement with Reach for Home and for the use and operation of the L&M

6.H
Packet Pg. 316
Village project, consisting of the Terms of Service and an Annual Budget for the Project.

On October 30, 2024, the County of Sonoma executed an agreement with the City of Healdsburg to provide operational funding for the L&M Village, in the amount of $101 per unit (22 units) per day or the not to exceed amount of $644,160.

On February 10, 2025, the County of Sonoma executed a third modification to the existing operational funding agreement with the City of Healdsburg to provide operational funding for the L&M Village for FY 2024-25, in an amount not to exceed $1,263,570.

DISCUSSION/ANALYSIS:

The purpose of this report is to provide the City Council and the public with a quarterly update on the L&M Village Program’s operational status, program outcomes, trends, and financial status.

As of the last quarterly update on April 7, 2025, the L&M Village Program has shown notable progress in addressing homelessness within our community. This success is largely due to the efforts of the L&M Village case managers, who have facilitated participants’ transition into permanent housing by assisting with property viewing and aiding with housing applications.

The following are some highlights from the L&M Village since the program’s inception and for the most recent quarter, covering the period from March 26, 2025, through June 5, 2025:
• Number of Participants Served: A total of 93 participants were enrolled in the program reflecting ongoing engagement and utilization of services. • Successful Exits to Housing: 44 participants have successfully transitioned into housing, marking a significant step towards stability.
• Housing Voucher Applications: 26 participants applied for and received housing vouchers through to August 26, 2024. However, no new housing voucher opportunities have been available hereafter.
• Health and Wellness: A total of 86 participants accessed mental health services, and 22- 25 individuals are currently engaged in regular sessions. Reach for Home staff are working on making the transition easier when exiting the program to outside mental health providers. They are also working on expanding to include psychological services. • Income Progress: 50 out of the 93 participants increased their income. 91 out of 93 increased their income through subsidies and assistance. • Activity Engagement: Nearly 80% of all participants are engaged in at least 2 activities per week, and nearly 90% are engaged in weekly case management.

ENVIRONMENTAL STEWARDSHIP:

Not applicable.

ALTERNATIVES:

This item is intended to serve as an information update on the L&M Village project; therefore, no action is required.

FISCAL IMPACT:

Since its inception in 2022, the L&M Village has received $7,048,800 in State Homekey Grant funding and $950,000 in county HHAP early Capital Match Funding. Of the Homekey funds, $6,168,000 was allocated for the acquisition and rehabilitation of the L&M Village, and $880,800 was designated for operational costs. The Homekey operational funding supported operational expenses from September 2022 through December 2023.

The City currently holds a contract with the Sonoma County Department of Health Services for operational funding to support the L&M Village. The contract will reimburse the City at the rate of $101 per unit per day, for up to $1,263,570. The current contract will expire at the end of the fiscal year on June 30, 2025. In Fiscal Year 2023-24, the County reimbursed the City for $298,720 in operational expenses incurred from January 1, 2023, through June 30, 2024. In the current fiscal year, expected reimbursements for operational expenses incurred through May total $744,370. There is sufficient funding remaining in the contract to support operational expenses

through the end of the fiscal year. City staff are continuing to work with the County to establish a new operational funding agreement to ensure operational costs are adequately covered beyond June 2025.

ENVIRONMENTAL ANALYSIS:

Pursuant to Title 14, the California Code of Regulations, Section 15302(c) 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.

CITY COUNCIL AGENDA STAFF REPORT
MEETING DATE: June 16, 2025
SUBJECT: Landscaping and Lighting Assessment District
PREPARED BY: Jaime Licea, Parks & Open Space Superintendent STRATEGIC INITIATIVE(S):

Maintain and Improve Infrastructure and Facilities
Provide Resident-Driven Community Services
RECOMMENDED ACTION(S):

1. Hold a public hearing and receive public comments or protests on the Annual Engineer’s Report, the proposed budget, and proposed annual assessments for the Healdsburg Landscaping and Lighting Assessment District (Assessment District); and

2. Adopt a Resolution accepting the Annual Engineer’s Report, confirming the assessment diagram and annual assessment amounts, and the levying and collection of assessments for FY 25/26 for the Assessment District.

COMMUNITY ENGAGEMENT/OUTREACH:

Beginning in 2020 staff met with residents from the Landscaping and Lighting Assessment District to identify concerns and opportunities as part of a working group. The working group meets twice per year and helps identify the work to be completed in the zones each year.

BACKGROUND:

The City of Healdsburg utilizes the Assessment District in accordance with the provisions of the Landscaping and Lighting Act of 1972 to fund the operation and maintenance of the landscaping improvements within the public right-of-way along specific streets and the maintenance of riparian and park areas in the City. The Assessment District consists of separate zones (areas) within the City. The funding sources are assessed parcels within each of the zones.

On February 18, 2025, the City Council began the required annual Assessment District proceedings by adopting a Resolution appointing the Engineer of Work and directing the preparation and filing of the Annual Engineer’s Report for FY 25/26.

On May 5, 2025, the City Council adopted a Resolution of Intention to levy and collect annual assessments for FY 25/26, preliminarily approved the filed Engineer’s Report, and set the date and time for the public hearing.

DISCUSSION/ANALYSIS:

Tonight’s public hearing is the last of three City Council meetings regarding the levy and collection of FY 25/26 assessments for the Assessment District. The Engineer’s Report being presented to the City Council for final approval is substantially the same as the Engineer’s Report preliminarily approved on May 5, 2025.

If approved at the conclusion of the public hearing, the City Council will confirm the assessment diagram and assessment amounts as set forth in the Annual Engineer’s Report and authorize the levy and collection of annual assessments for FY 25/26.

The District currently consists of seven zones. The Annual Engineer’s Report includes the description and proposed changes for each of the existing zones, the description and the proposed costs to operate and maintain the improvements, the method of apportionment of the assessments, the assessment roll for all parcels, and the assessment diagram of each zone.

The zones detailed in the Engineer’s Report are as follows:

Zone 1 – Parkland Hills Subdivision
Zone 2 – Healdsburg Estates and River’s Landing
Zone 3 – Park and Healdsburg Avenue
Zone 4 – Senior Housing Development
Zone 5 – Sonata Subdivision (Includes Grant Street Village) Zone 6 – Sorrento Square
Zone 7 – Mill District
For FY 25/26, the estimated maximum annual assessments for all zones are proposed to increase by the allowable annual Consumer Price Index (CPI) (Year 2024) increase of +2.40%.

The annual assessments to be levied are proposed to increase for all zones. Contributions from existing Annual Reserves will be used to reduce assessments in Zone 5. Community Services Fund contributions will be used in Zones 3 and 6 to account for special benefits conferred upon out-of-district properties.

Along with the proposed revenue collected, approximately $27,995.00 in Annual Reserves and $19,397.42 in Community Services Fund contributions will be used to balance the budget. The following table presents the actual levied assessments from FY 24/25 and proposed annual assessments to levy in FY 25/26.

Zone 6 $942.58 $575.88 $520.56
Zone 7 $21,301.74 $21,025.44 $20,802.20
The overall Assessment District budget has increased approximately 12.0% from last year’s budget. This increase is primarily due to additional costs associated with vegetation maintenance in riparian areas, mulch replacement, minor landscaping improvements, painting of retaining walls, and necessary tree removal.

The adoption of tonight’s resolution is pursuant to Section 22631 of the California Streets and Highways Code.

ENVIRONMENTAL STEWARDSHIP:

The City has transitioned to drought-tolerant, and low water use landscaping throughout the District. Future work will continue to focus on drought tolerant approaches.

ALTERNATIVES:

By virtue of the Streets and Highways Code (Code), the City of Healdsburg is mandated to adhere to the recommendation in the Code to file an Annual Engineer’s Report. By not filing the report, the City would not be in conformance with the rules and regulations of the Code and assessments could be subject to challenge. Accordingly, staff does not recommend options with respect to filing the annual Engineer’s Report.

FISCAL IMPACT:

The Assessment District collects funds to support the operation and maintenance of certain areas within the City. Revenues from the Assessment District are estimated at $432,197.20 (total of all 7 zones.) Overall expenditures are estimated at $479,589.62. The difference between the revenues collected from the Assessment District and the overall estimated expenditures ($47,392.42) will come from available Zone reserves and Community Services Fund contributions. Staff propose several amendments to the adopted Fiscal Year 25/26 budget to align with the proposed budgets in the Engineers Report. The amendments include four proposed one-time projects to improve Zones 1, 3, 5 and 6; additional appropriations for operations in Zones 1,4,5 and 7; and increases in the transfers to account for the Community Service Fund Contributions to Zones 3 and 6.
