28 STAFF REPORT TO THE CITY COUNCIL
DATE: Regular Meeting of March 24, 2026
TO: Mayor and Members of the City Council
VIA: Dante Hall, City Manager
SUBMITTED BY: Eibleis Melendez, City Clerk
SUBJECT: Mandatory Garbage/Solid Waste Disposal – Delinquent Accounts
RECOMMENDED ACTION:
Conduct a Public Hearing and upon conclusion, consider adopting a Resolution confirming the report of delinquent accounts and placing liens on said properties and special assessments upon property taxes pursuant to City of Hercules Municipal Code Section 5-
2.01 to 5-2.16, Mandatory Garbage/Solid Waste Disposal.
BACKGROUND:
Municipal Code Sections 5 -2.01 to 5 -2.16, Mandatory Garbage/Solid Waste Disposal, require all property owners of occupied premises in the City to subscribe to, and pay for, garbage collection service through Richmond Sanitary Service, the City’s franchised refuse collector. Collection charges that are delinquent in a six-month period are subject to the notice and hearing process defined by the C ode. This process ultimately results in an assessment lien against the property for which service was rendered to cover the delinquent garbage collection charges, penalties and City costs. The lien is placed on said property and the assessment is collected either through escrow when the property is sold or by the City with its regular property tax allocation from the County. The Collector, in turn, receives payment for the delinquent fees and charges from the City.
The procedure specified by the Code for the collection of these fees and charges is as follows:
1. The Collector sends notification to the af fected property owners regarding the delinquency and the City lien process.
2. The Collector submits delinquent accounts report to the City, Attachment 2.
3. Section 5-2.09 c of the Hercules Municipal Code requires the City to mail a notice of the public hearing date to the owners listed on the report not less than 10 days prior 29 to the hearing. This notice was mailed to delinquent property owners on March 12, 2026.
4. The City Council confirms the delinquent accounts report and orders placement of liens on said properties and special assessment upon property taxes by resolution.
5. By August 10th of each year, the City Council approves the final assessment levy and the confirmed report is submitted to the County Auditor for inclusion on the property tax rolls.
ANALYSIS:
At the July 23, 2019 City Council meeting Council gave direction to staff to meet with Republic Services to discuss reducing the amount of times per year to conduct these public hearings from 3 times per year to 2 times per year. City staff met with representatives of Republic Services on August 13, 2019 and determined that the months of February and July would best meet the needs of both parties to get liens placed for delinquent accounts on the tax roll.
Richmond Sanitary Service has submitted a report listing all the delinquent accounts subject to lien proceedings and has provided the required notice to property owners.
Attachment 2 is the list of unpaid charges for waste collection services provided between May 2025 – December 2025. At the time the list was received, Richmond Sanitary Services Preliminary Lien List Report lists 187 accounts totaling $114,129.21. The attached report shows the billing and service addresses of the subject property, the date that each account became at least six month delinquent, the amount due for the delinquent garbage collection service, the amount of administrative charges due to the City and the total amount due and to be liened against the property. Richmond Sanitary Service has confirmed that all required notices and billings have been mailed to this list of property owners.
The Finance Director may make revisions or correct ions to the report as it deems just.
Vacant premises or billing errors, which can be substantiated, are examples of circumstances which the Council might want to consider in the process of reviewing the report. The report must then be confirmed by resolution of the City Council.
A certified copy of the report will be filed with the County Recorder’s Office for the placement of special liens against the respective parcels. Any payments made on these delinquencies after the date on the Preliminary Lien List and/or after the City Council public hearing, but prior to this filing date, will be deleted from the list and not filed with the County Recorder’s Office.
FISCAL IMPACT:
In addition to the fees due Richmond Sanitary Service (the Collector), the City is authorized by the Code to establish reasonable administrative charges. In order to cover the costs incurred by the City through the lien process, a total administrative cha rge of $30 per delinquent account is assessed. This charge is comparable to that charged by the other cities in West County and notice of this charge has been provided to the affected property 30 owners. This fee will be used to cover the cost of staff’s time and other costs associated with processing these delinquencies.

65 STAFF REPORT TO THE CITY COUNCIL
DATE: Regular Meeting of March 24, 2026
TO: Mayor and Members of the City Council
VIA: Dante Hall, City Manager
SUBMITTED BY: Timothy Rood AICP, Community Development Director SUBJECT: 2025 General Plan Annual Progress Report
RECOMMENDED ACTION:
Approve the 2025 General Plan Annual Progress Report (APR).
BACKGROUND:
California state law requires each city and county to adopt a general plan to express the community’s development goals and policies. State law also requires submittal of an annual report on progress in implementing the General Pan.
Since 2022, the Council has received annual progress reports on the City’s General Plan.
These reports have highlighted the fact that many of the General Pl an elements are extremely out of date and require updating to clearly reflect the City’s vision and current conditions and to comply with many new state laws. On March 25, 2025, the Council discussed the proposed General Plan update process and timeline.
A competitive Request for Proposals process in the summer of 2025 resulted in the selection of a team led by Raimi + Associates (R+A) to provide comprehensive consultant services (planning, environmental, transportation, economic and civil engineering) for the update of the General Plan Land Use, Circulation, Open Space & Conservation, Noise, and Economic Development elements and preparation of an Environmental Impact Report. The Council approved the consultant contract at its October 14, 2025 meeting.
66 ANALYSIS:
This memorandum serves as the City of Hercules 2025 General Plan Annual Progress Report.
Hercules had two significant General Plan accomplishments in 2025. The first was the adoption on May 13, 2025 of an updated Local Hazard Mitigation Plan attachment to the Safety Element and associated minor revisions to the text of the Safety Element for consistency. The second was a successful procurement process for a consultant team to prepare the City’s first comprehensive General Plan update in over 25 years. Branded as the “Horizon 2050 Hercules General Plan,” this effort will update the Land Use, Economic Development, Circulation, Open Space & Conservation, and Noise Elements of the General Plan.
Staff initiated a comprehensive update of the General Plan in 2025 for several compelling reasons:
Elements Need Updates:
State guidelines call for the General Plan as a whole to be periodically updated; and many agencies update on a 10- or 15- year cycle. The Hercules Economic Development, Land Use, Open Space & Conservation, and Noise elements are over two decades old and do not reflect current land uses, available development sites, market conditions, regional plans, noise levels, or growth forecasts, nor the dissol ution of redevelopment agencies statewide in 2011.
The Open Space & Conservation Element is required to be updated by at least two recent state laws and should be updated to reflect the 2024 Parks and Recreation Facilities Master Plan. The Circulation Element includes very ambitious projects dating back to the redevelopment era, such as reconfiguration of the I -80 ramps, that should be reviewed as to their current feasibility and need. The Hazardous Waste Management Plan also does not reflect current cond itions, given that most of the City’s hazardous waste sites have already been remediated. The Noise Element is based on noise data collected over 25 years ago. Extensive text amendments have been made to some elements over the years, including through the Waterfront Now! Initiative in 2008, but the elements themselves were never revised to incorporate these amendments.
Strategic Goals:
Updating the General Plan is needed to fulfill the Council’s strategic goals of developing comprehensive Land Use and Economic Development Strategies. The General Plan update process provides a good opportunity to use existing funding to engage economic development professionals as part of the team, to assess current economic trends and conditions and recommend policies and programs to guide staff and policy makers following adoption.
67 Housing Capacity Needed:
Updating the Land Use element is necessary to provide additional housing capacity in the next cycle, which begins in 2032. With nearly all its vacant sites already e ntitled for predominantly market-rate development, at present Hercules has very limited capacity for additional affordable housing.
In addition, the Caltrans corporation yard site is called out for special mid -cycle action in the Housing Element: if Calt rans and the City have not determined, by 2028, that it is feasible to relocate the Caltrans corporation yard and allow the site to be developed as affordable housing, the Housing Element requires the City to make available alternative sites to replace the lost capacity – which would almost certainly involve rezoning and General Plan amendments as well as C alifornia Environmental Quality Act (CEQA) review for any such actions.
It is highly likely that the City will not be able to accommodate its next RHNA allocation or replace the capacity of the Caltrans site unless additional sites, such as shopping centers or other commercial sites, are rezoned to allow housing. Depending on the affordable housing progress made in the current cycle and the number of uni ts assigned in the upcoming cycle, it is possible that existing residential areas or approved development sites may also need to be rezoned to allow greater density if existing entitlements were to lapse.
The General Plan process provides an opportunity to integrate this mandatory replacement site identification and rezoning process into the City’s larger land use vision and environmental document, as well as to engage the community in the process.
CEQA Documents Outdated:
CEQA requires government agencies to consider the environmental consequences of their actions before approving plans and policies or committing to a course of action on a project. The Environmental Impact Report (EIR) for the General Plan was prepared in 1995. Subsequently, EIRs were prepared for the New Town Center (2009) and Bayfront (2010) projects. Since then, the CEQA documents for General Amendments or updates have generally been Initial Study/Negative Declarations that tiered from these older EIRs.
The proposed General Plan update provides the opportunity to prepare a new EIR that reflects current laws and guidelines and provides the City with additional growth capacity for the next housing cycle.
General Plan Update Process and Timeline
The Land Use, Economic Development, Circulation, Open Space & Conservation, and Noise elements will be comprehensively updated. Other elements will be selectively updated if needed for consistency. The optional Hazardous Waste Management Plan adopted in 1990 will be reviewed for current need and relevance and either repealed or updated as needed.
68 A broad and inclusive public engagement process will be a key component of the General Plan update. Engagement activities may include in-person and virtual workshops, focus groups, stakeholder interviews, online surveys, and pop-ups at other events.
General Plan Advisory Committee
An ad-hoc General Plan Advisory Committee (GPAC) will provide guidance by reviewing the existing plan and policies, helping identify targeted updates, and reviewing draft goals and policies. GPAC meetings will guide the development of the guiding principles, analysis of issues, and evaluation of proposed goals, policies, future development scenarios, and infrastructure improvements. Consultants will work closely with the GPAC throughout the process, using their input as a sounding board for key concepts to ensure alignment with community priorities.
The GPAC members will provide added eyes and ears in the community to provide insight and act as ambassadors to encourage broad engagement in the General Plan update process. The members will also provide unique expertise and invaluable local knowledge.
The role of the Committee will include review ing milestone documents , providing guidance on policy direction, and provid ing recommendations to City staff and the consultants at critical junc tures. Meetings will be publicized and open to the public. The Committee will act in an advisory capacity and not have decision-making responsibilities and will serve to build support for the updated General Plan.
On October 14, 2025, the Council approved a resolution creating an ad -hoc GPAC with the following composition:
One (1) Planning Commissioner, to be selected by the Commission One (1) Finance Commissioner, to be selected by the Commission One (1) Community & Library Services Commissioner, to be selected by the Commission
One (1) representative of the Hercules Historical Society, to be selected by the Society’s board
Five (5) to seven (7) at-large community representatives, to be appointed by the City Council. The Council may wish to consider appointing representatives reflecting the City’s diverse population, such as seniors, youth, parents, business owners, and representatives of non-profit organizations and other community groups.
The general flow of GPAC meetings will be approximately every two months over a roughly two-year period, and related to the phases of work, as listed below:
• Meeting #1: Introduction to the project and the role of the GPAC • Meeting #2: Issues, opportunities, community priorities • Meeting #3: Focus areas and development vision
• Meeting #4 and #5: Land use options
69 • Meeting #6: Preferred land use options
• Meeting #7: Land use designation changes and development standards • Meetings #8 and #9: Policy development
• Meeting #10: Responses to comments on the Public Review Draft Elements and Draft EIR
GPAC meetings are anticipated to include the following topics:
Focus Areas and Vision: Building on the Part 1 deliverables, the Consultant Team will work closely with City staff and the GPAC (meeting #3) to draft a vision for future development and to identify “focus areas” – sites or areas that are likely to develop or redevelop by 2050.
Land Use Options: For each focus area, the Consultant Team will work with City staff to explore land use development options that are consistent with the vision but vary in the mix of use, density, and/or intensity. The land use options will be refined an d confirmed in consultation with the GPAC (meetings #4 and #5), Planning Commission (meeting #2), and City Council (meeting #2).
Preferred Land Use Option: Based on the community feedback, and in consultation with City staff and the Consultant Team, R+A will prepare a recommended land use option for each focus area. The team will refine the recommendation with the GPAC (meeting #6) and Planning Commission (meeting #3) before inviting the City Council (meeting #3) to select the “preferred” land use options.
Land Use Standards and Map: Based on anticipated land use change, and building on the existing Municipal Code, R+A will draft updates to the General Plan land use designations and their associated development standards and refine them in consultation with City staff and the GPAC (meeting #7). R+A will then prepare an updated land use map based on the preferred land use options and designations. Along with the policy direction confirmed in Part 3, the land use map will be the starting point for the EIR (Task 7).
Engagement Round 3 : Using community -friendly summaries of changes in policy direction, community feedback on the policy frameworks will be invited through GPAC meeting #8, Survey #3, Pop -ups #3, Workshop #3, and focused stakeholder meetings.
Based on a review of community feedback with City staff, recommendations for policy direction will then be presented to the GPAC (meeting #9) and Planning Commission (meeting #4) before requesting that the City Council confirm the policy direction for each of the General Plan elements being updated (meeting #4).
Engagement Round 4: Using community-friendly summaries of changes made since the community last reviewed land use options and draft policies, community feedback on the Public Draft Elements and Draft EIR will be invited through Online Survey #4, Workshop 70 #4, and focused stakeholder meetings. Based on a review of community feedback with City staff, recommendations for refinements to the elements will then be presented to the GPAC (meeting #10) before proceeding with adoption hearings for the updated elements.
Following adoption of the updated General Plan, anticipated for early in 2028, the GPAC will be dissolved.

72 STAFF REPORT TO THE CITY COUNCIL
DATE: Regular Meeting of March 24, 2026
TO: Mayor and Members of the City Council
VIA: Dante Hall, City Manager
SUBMITTED BY: Timothy Rood, AICP, Community Development Director SUBJECT: 2025 Annual Housing Element Progress Report
RECOMMENDED ACTION:
Approve report for submittal to the 2025 Annual Housing Element Progress Report (Attachment 1) to the California Department of Housing and Community Development (HCD) and other applicable agencies.
BACKGROUND:
Government Code Section 65400 requires each local government to complete a Housing Element Annual Progress Report (APR) on the status and progress in implementing the jurisdiction’s Housing Element. The annual report is submitted to the Department of Housing and Community Development (HCD) and the Governor’s Office of Land Use and Climate Innovation by April 1st of each year for the prior calendar year. In the Bay Area, copies of the approved Housing Element APR report are also forwarded to the Association of Bay Area Governments (ABAG) and Contra Costa Transportation Authority (CCTA).
The report must be reviewed by the local governing body, which can be done before or after submitting to the State. After review by the City Council, staff will submit the APR to HCD and other agencies to ensure compliance with the State deadline of April 1, 202 6, for the 2025 reporting period.
HCD provides a standard template that cities complete to fulfill statutory requirements for reporting on housing information – including housing production and affordability, implementation of Housing Element programs, and local efforts to remove governmental constraints to the development of housing.
The City Council may accept the report via minute action instead of by resolution. 73 ANALYSIS:
The draft Hercules 202 5 Annual Housing Element Progress Report (Attachment 1) provides a comprehensive overview of the City's progress within the 2023-2031 Housing Element cycle. It effectively outlines the number of new residential units constructed during the reporting period, categorizing them by income levels. This breakdown allows for a detailed examination of how well the City is meeting the diverse housing needs of its residents.
One key aspect of the report is its comparison of the new residential units to the regional housing needs allocation (RHNA) assigned to the City for the entire Housing Element period (2023-2031). This comparison offers valuable insight into whether the City is on track to meet its mandated housing targets. By assessing progress against the RHNA, city planners and stakeholders can identify areas of success and areas that may require additional focus or resources.
Furthermore, the report delves into the many new housing policies and programs mandated by the State through the Housing Element review process, providing an analysis of the progress made in achieving the goals, metrics and timelines outlined within these policies. The Council’s attention is particularly directed to Table D of the report, which discusses each of the 24 housing programs identified in the Housing Element, including their objectives, the status of program administration, and targeted timeframes and metrics. The City engaged a consultant, RSG, to assist in implementing these new housing programs and has also contracted with a non -profit organization, Rebuilding Together East Bay Network, for the new home repair program for low-income homeowners.
Overall, the draft Hercules 202 5 Annual Housing Element Progress Report serves as a vital tool for monitoring and evaluating the City's efforts to address housing challenges.
The report’s detailed analysis provides valuable insight s that can inform future policy decisions and resource allocations to ensure continued progress towards meeting the housing needs of Hercules residents.
Summary
The Annual Housing Report for 2025 requires the reporting of the following for every housing unit:
When housing development applications are submitted;
When entitlements are completed;
When building permits are issued;
When certificates of occupancy are issued;
Affordability of all units in any phase of development; and, Additional information regarding other ancillary information. 74 Key housing information for 2025 reflected in the report includes:
Table A (Housing Development Application Submitted): Table A includes data on housing units and developments for which an application was determined to be complete between January 1 and December 31 of the reporting year . A total of 365 units, including seven (7) Accessory Dwelling Units (ADU), 162 units within the Emblem Hercules project, and 178 units within the Waterfront District Master Planning area (Blocks A, B, C, D, and J) were submitted for entitlement approval during 2025. Of the 365 units, 58 are low-income deed-restricted.
The Association of Bay Area Governments (ABAG) , in partnership with Bay Area jurisdictions, has been administering an affordability survey to learn more about the rents of newly built ADUs. Based on the results of the surveys, the California Department of Housing and Community Development (HCD) is com fortable with ABAG jurisdictions using the following assumptions in their APR 2025 and 2026:
30% very low income
30% low income
30% moderate income
10% above moderate income
As such, of the seven (7) ADU applications submitted to the City in 2025 , the following affordability assumptions are made:
2 – very low-income non-deed-restricted
2 – low-income non-deed-restricted
2 – moderate-income non-deed-restricted
1 – above moderate-income non-deed-restricted
Table A2 (Completed Entitlement, Issued Building Permit or Certificate of Occupancy): This table follows the dwelling units from entitlement approval to the building, and certificate of occupancy (final inspection) phases of a project , and includes:
Four (4) ADUs and 171 units within the Waterfront District Master Planning area (Blocks K, L, M, O and P) completed entitlements.
ADU affordability assumptions: One (1) above moderate-income non-deed-restricted, one (1) moderate-income non-deed-restricted, one (1) low -income non-deed-restricted, and one (1) very low - income non-deed-restricted.
Waterfront Blocks K, L, M, O, P and J affordability: Ten (10) low - income deed-restricted.
75 Three (3) ADUs and 1 single-family dwelling (Owl Ranch Subdivision), received building permits.
ADU affordability assumptions: One (1) above moderate-income non-deed-restricted, one (1) moderate-income non-deed-restricted, one (1) low-income non-deed-restricted and one (1) very low-income non-deed-restricted.
Four (4) ADUs and 37 single-family dwellings (Owl Ranch Subdivision) received certificates of occupancy.
ADU affordability assumptions: One (1) moderate-income non-deed- restricted, one (1) low-income non-deed-restricted and one (1) very low-income non-deed-restricted.
Owl Ranch Subdivision affo rdability: One (1) low -income deed - restricted, and one (1) moderate-income deed-restricted Table B : Progress on Regional Housing Needs Allocation (RHNA) for the 2023-2031 housing cycle. Table B reports building permits issued in the current planning cycle.
19 above-moderate income affordable (i.e., market rate units) , 309 units short of RHNA of 327 units;
One (1) moderate-income affordable units (i.e., affordable at up to 120% of area median income), 125 units short RHNA of 126 units; Two (2) low-income affordable units (i.e., affordable at up to 80% of area median income), 196 units short of RHNA of 198 units;
One (1) very low-income affordable unit (i.e., affordable at up to 50% of area median income), 343 units short of RHNA of 344 units.
Table C: The City identified three (3) sites to accommodate additional housing.
None of the sites required rezoning to accommodate the realistic or proposed housing capacity.
1352 Willow Ave.: A vacant 2.1 -acre parcel zoned New Town Center with the realistic capacity for 140 very low-income dwelling units. 1350 Willow Ave.: An underutilized light industrial 1.77 -acre parcel zoned New Town Center with the realistic capacity for 137 very low -income dwelling units.
Bayfront Blocks F and H: An SB 35 application that include two (2) parcels within the Waterfront District Master Plan was submitted. The development proposes a total of 83 units, including 29 extremely low, 16 very low, 27 low- income, 10 lower income and one (1) market rate manager’s unit. 76 Table D: The City made progress in implementing many objectives required by the 2023-2031 Housing Element. Key progress includes bringing a consultant on board to assist with implementing many of the new housing programs, including first-time homebuyer assistance, affordable housing partnerships and funding sources, expansion of housing choice voucher use, developing guidelines and criteria for replacing affordable housing replacement units within development projects, fair housing assistance and outreach, and developer convenings. Table E: No commercial development bonuses approved.
Table F: No affordable units rehabilitated, preserved, or acquired. Table F2: No above-moderate income units converted to moderate income units. Table G: No City-owned land sold, leased, or otherwise disposed. Table H: No City-owned surplus lands.
Table J: No lower-income student housing.
Table K: The City adopted a local tenant prioritization provision in 2021 as part of its Affordable Housing Policy and then updated the policy in 2024, retaining the local tenant prioritization provision.
Table L: No new sites have been added to the National, State or Local register of historic places.
LEAP Reporting: No reporting for Local Early Action Planning grant and other funding (Regional Early Action Planning (REAP)).
FISCAL IMPACT:
No direct financial impact of filing the annual housing report; however, failing to file the annual housing report can negatively impact the potential receipt of various grant and regional funds.

12/31/2031 6th Cycle Completed
The City updated the Zoning Code effective February 22, 2023, to comply with AB 2162 (Ordinance No. 544). To
comply with requirements of AB 2162, that supportive
housing be a use by right in zones where multifamily and mixed uses are permitted, including nonresidential zones permitting multifamily uses, if the proposed housing
development meets specified criteria, Land Use
Regulation Tables 13-6.1, 13-12.1, 13-15.1, and 13-18.1 changed Supportive Housing from Administrative or
Conditional Use Permit requirement to a Permitted Use.
On February 13, 2024, Ordinance 549, the City also
amended provisions of the Hercules Municipal Code
(Table 13-6.1), Chapter 13-35 (Section 13-35.258.

STAFF REPORT TO THE CITY COUNCIL
DATE: Regular Meeting of March 24, 2026
TO: Mayor and Members of the City Council
VIA: Dante Hall, City Manager
SUBMITTED BY: Edwin Gato, Director of Finance
SUBJECT: Redevelopment Housing Successor Annual Report for Fiscal Year (FY) 2024-25
RECOMMENDED ACTION:
Staff recommends that the City Council receive and file the Housing Successor Agency Annual Report for FY 2024-25.
DISCUSSION:
The City of Hercules ("City") elected to become the Housing Successor Agency ("Housing Successor") to the former Hercules Redevelopment Agency ("Agency") in February 2024.
All redevelopment agencies were dissolved statewide effective February 1, 2012. Each housing successor agency is required to prepare an annual report on how it meets the requirements imposed by Health and Safety Code ("HSC") Section 34176.1.
The report is due to the California Department of Housing and Community Development ("HCD") by April 1 each year and must be posted on the City's website. The report for FY 2024-25 is being presented to the City Council to receive and file.
Housing Asset Fund Activity
As of June 30, 2024, the Housing Asset Fund balance was approximately $12.4 mill ion ($6.2 million of which was cash). The Housing Asset Fund received $363,347 in revenues in FY 2024-25 from homeowner loan repayments and interest.
108
The Housing Successor spent $59,765 in Housing Asset Funds between FY 2024-25 on administrative items. There were no expenditures for housing development projects.
Real Property Assets and Loans Receivable
The former Redevelopment Agency did transfer any housing properties to the City upon dissolution.
As of June 30, 2024, the Housing Successor oversees approximately $6.2 million in loans receivable. Two loans were made to affordable housing developers (Bridge Housing and Eden Housing) prior to dissolution with an outstanding balance of $2.3 million. There are also several homeowner loans with an outstanding balance of $3.8 million; This is based on outstanding balances reported the City's accounting records as of June 30, 2024.
Expenditure Proportionality Requirements
Expenditures from the Housing Asset Fund must meet specific proportionality requirements by income level and age. In general:
Administrative and monitoring expenses are capped at five percent of the value of Housing Successor properties and loans receivable on an annual basis. The cap was $309,556 in FY 2024-25.
If Housing Asset Funds are spent on housing development, within each five -year compliance period:
o At least 30% must be spent on extremely low -income rental households (earning up to 30% of the Area Median Income);
o No more than 20% may be spent on low -income households (earning 60- 80% of the Area Median Income); and
o No monies may be spent on moderate or above moderate -income households (earning more than 80% of the Area Median Income). No more than 50% of deed -restricted rental housing units assisted by the City or the forme r Redevelopment Agency in the prior 10 years may be restricted to seniors.
Excess Surplus
Housing successors are subject to the same excess surplus requirement as former redevelopment agencies. An agency has an excess surplus if its unencumbered cash balance exceeds $1 million or the sum of deposits in the prior four years, whichever is greater. Housing successors must spend or encumber excess surplus within three fiscal years or transfer its excess surplus to HCD to spend on statewide housing programs.
The Housing Successor has an excess surplus of $2.7 million from FY 2023-24 and $266,421 from FY 2024-25. The City must spend or encumber (commit in an executed 109
agreement) these amounts within three fiscal years, or June 30, 2027, and June 30, 2028, respectively. The Housing Successor will meet this requirement by committing Housing Asset Funds to assist with affordable housing development. The Housing Successor issued a $5.0 million Notice of Funding Availability (NOFA) in 2026 inviting proposals to utilize funds for affordable housing development that complies with HSC 34176.1. Three development teams submitted proposals that are currently under review. Proposals will be presented to City Council for consideration in Spring or Summer 2026.
FISCAL IMPACT:
There are no fiscal implications for receiving and filing this annual report on the City's activities as the housing successor agency to the former Agency.

Hercules Housing Successor Annual Report FY 2024-25 1
INTRODUCTION
Following the dissolution of redevelopment in 2012, all former redevelopment agencies were required to designate a housing successor agency to assume all rights, powers, committed assets, liabilities, duties, and obligations associated with the redevelopment agency’s affordable housing activities. Housing successor agencies must report annually on their activities as required by Senate Bill 341 (DeSaulnier, 2013-14). The Housing Successor Annual Report (“Annual Report”) details housing successor activity and reports on compliance with various requirements outlined in Health and Safety Code (“HSC”) Section 34176.1(f).
The City of Hercules (“City”) elected to become the Housing Successor Agency (“Housing Successor”) to the former Hercules Redevelopment Agency (“Agency”) in February 2024. This report covers the activities of the Housing Successor for Fiscal Year (“FY”) 2024-25 and certain annual, five-, and ten-year planning period requirements described herein.
HOUSING SUCCESSOR
The City adopted Resolution No. 24-014 dated February 27, 2024 establishing itself as the Housing Successor and assuming responsibility for all remaining housing assets and liabilities of the former Agency. The Housing Successor is responsible for overseeing all housing assets transferred from the former Agency with the main goal of provide affordable housing in the City until such assets have been exhausted.
The Agency was dissolved on February 1, 2012, under California Redevelopment Dissolution Law (Health and Safety Code or “HSC” Section 33000 et seq.). The City did not elect to become the Housing Successor to retain housing assets and functions at the time. The City declined the role of Housing Successor in 2012 because there was no funding for the management or monitoring of housing assets and functions and because the City believed the Contra Costa County Housing Authority (“County Housing Authority”) would take responsibility of Agency housing assets.
HSC 34176(b) states if a city does not elect to become Housing Successor, that role shall be transferred to the local housing authority. The County Housing Authority automatically became the Housing Successor by operation of law. However, when the City attempted to transfer Agency assets, the County Housing Authority declined Housing Successor responsibilities to avoid jeopardizing federal Housing and Urban Development funding.
113
Hercules Housing Successor Annual Report FY 2024-25 2 The City elected to become the Housing Successor in February 2024 to administer outstanding homeowner loans issued by the Agency and access funds to finance affordable housing development.
The City maintains all transferred assets, liabilities, and housing activities in the Hercules Low and Moderate Income Housing Asset Fund (“Housing Asset Fund”).
SCOPE OF THIS HOUSING SUCCESSOR ANNUAL REPORT
The Annual Report is limited to the City’s activities as they relate to its role as a housing successor, rather than all housing functions of the City in general. This may include, but is not limited to, financial activities, property disposition, loan administration, monitoring of covenants, and affordable housing development.
This report covers the Housing Successor’s activities in Fiscal Year 2024-25 and describes compliance with various annual, five-year, and ten-year housing expenditure and production requirements.
The Annual Report is due to the State of California (“State”) Department of Housing and Community Development (“HCD”) by April 1 annually and must be accompanied by an independent financial audit.
The City’s audited financial statements are posted on the City’s website. This Report is an addendum to the Housing Element Annual Progress Report required by Government Code Section 65400, which is submitted to HCD by April 1 annually.
ASSETS TRANSFERRED TO THE HOUSING SUCCESSOR
Upon the statewide dissolution of redevelopment in 2012, all rights, powers, committed assets, liabilities, duties, and obligations associated with the housing activities of the Agency were transferred to the elected housing successor. The City prepared a Housing Asset Transfer (“HAT”) Form that provided an inventory of all housing assets transferred from the Agency to the Housing Successor. This included 108 loans receivable. A copy of the HAT is provided as Appendix 1.
It is important to distinguish that housing successor assets that were not transferred from the former Agency or generated by or purchased with assets from the former Agency, are not subject to HSC Section 34176.1.
BACKGROUND
This Section summarizes the legal requirements for use of housing successor assets. 114
Hercules Housing Successor Annual Report FY 2024-25 3
LEGAL REQUIREMENTS PERTAINING TO HOUSING SUCCESSORS
In general, housing successors must comply with three major requirements pursuant to HSC Section 34176.1:
1. Expenditures and housing production are subject to income and age targets.
2. Housing successors may not accumulate an “excess surplus,” or a high unencumbered cash balance based on certain thresholds.
3. Properties must be developed with affordable housing or sold within five to ten years of the DOF approving the HAT.
Appendix 2 provides a detailed summary of the reporting requirements that are addressed in this Report.
PERMITTED USES OF HOUSING ASSET FUNDS
Pursuant to HSC Section 34176.1, former Agency assets and the revenues generated by those assets, are maintained in a Low and Moderate Income Housing Asset Fund (“Housing Asset Fund”). Housing Asset Funds may be spent on:
Administrative costs for operation of the housing successor agency. The law allows a housing successor to spend the greater of:
o $200,000 per year adjusted annually for inflation, or o 5% of the statutory value of real property owned by the housing successor and the value of loans and grants receivable on the HAT (“Portfolio”), whichever is greater.
HCD has annually published an adjusted limit amount for administrative costs, reflecting the change in the Consumer Price Index from the prior year. Although HCD has not yet published the update for FY 2024-25, applying the same methodology and index HCD has previously used would yield a limit adjusted for inflation for FY 2024-25 of $270,700. The Housing Successor’s FY 2024-25 Portfolio balance is $6,191,120, of which 5% is $309,556. The City’s FY 2024-25 annual administrative cost limit is the higher of these amounts, or $309,556. 115
Hercules Housing Successor Annual Report FY 2024-25 4 Homeless prevention and rapid rehousing services up to $500,000 per year 1 if the former redevelopment agency did not have any outstanding inclusionary housing or replacement housing production requirements as of 2012. Hercules is ineligible for this expense because the former Agency had not met such requirements upon dissolution. Based on the Agency’s 2010-2014 Implementation Plan and assessor records, the Agency’s inclusionary housing production requirement through 2011 was 620 affordable units, of which 310 were restricted to very low income. The Agency produced 435 affordable units, of which 311 were restricted to very low income. The Housing Successor will be eligible for the homeless prevention and rapid rehousing services expense if it produces 185 affordable units.
Affordable housing development assisting households up to 80 percent of the Area Median Income (“AMI”), subject to specific income and age targets over a five- or ten-year period.
Five-Year Income Proportionality on Development Expenditures: Housing Asset Funds may be spent on development of affordable housing projects affordable to low, very low, and extremely low-income households. “Development” is defined in HSC Section 33413 as new construction, acquisition, rehabilitation, or the preservation of affordable housing developments.
Over each five-year compliance period, at least 30 percent of development expenditures must assist extremely low-income households (30% of AMI), while no more than 20 percent may assist low-income households (between 60-80% of AMI). The balance of such expenditures may be used on very low-income households (between 30% and 60% of AMI). The first compliance period was between January 1, 2014 through June 30, 2019. The second period was between July 1, 2019 through June 30, 2024. FY 2024-25 is the first year of the third five- year compliance period for income proportionality, which began July 1, 2024 and ends June 30, 2029.
Note that housing successors must report expenditures by category each year, but compliance with income proportionality limits is measured every five years. For example, a housing successor could spend all its funds in a single year on households earning between 60-80% of AMI as long as total expenditures on 60-80% AMI households do not exceed 20 percent during the five-year compliance period.
1 Assembly Bill 1782 amended the limit from $250,000 to $500,000 effective January 1, 2025. 116
Hercules Housing Successor Annual Report FY 2024-25 5 If a housing successor does not meet the minimum expenditures required for extremely low- income households, or exceeds the amount permitted on low-income households, future expenditures are subject to greater restrictions until these proportionality targets are met.
Specifically, if a housing successor is unable to spend at least 30 percent of its development expenditures on extremely low units, it is required to increase this spending to 50 percent until compliant with the 30 percent threshold. A housing successor that spends more than 20 percent of its development expenditures on low-income units cannot spend any further funds on low-income developments until it is at or below the 20 percent threshold. As such, tracking these expenditures and their progress over the corresponding five-year period is an important function of the Annual Report.
Ten-Year Age Proportionality: If more than 50 percent of the total aggregate number of deed-restricted rental units produced by the city, housing successor, or former redevelopment agency during the past 10 years are restricted to seniors, the housing successor may not spend more Housing Asset Funds on senior rental housing.
It is important to stress that Housing Successor expenditure and production requirements are measured on different timeframes:
One-Year Limits: Administrative Allowance and Homeless Prevention Allowance. Compliance evaluated annually and resets every year.
Five-Year Limit: Expenditures by Income Level. Compliance evaluated over fixed five-year periods set by law, the first five-year period being July 1, 2014, to June 30, 2019, the second period being July 1, 2019, to June 30, 2024, and the third period being July 1, 2024, to June 30, 2029.
Ten-Year Limit: Number of Senior Deed-Restricted Units Assisted. Compliance evaluated based on a rolling ten-year period that is different every year.
Appendix 3 describes Housing Asset Fund expenditure requirements in more detail, including the types of costs eligible in each category.

LIMITS ON THE ACCUMULATION OF HOUSING FUNDS (EXCESS
SURPLUS)
State law limits how much cash a housing successor may retain and, if it fails to commit and spend these dollars in a reasonable timeframe, ultimately penalizes the housing successor by requiring unspent funds to be transferred to HCD for use on State housing programs.
HSC Section 34176.1(d) establishes a limit, known as an “excess surplus” on the amount of unencumbered Housing Asset Funds based on the greater of:
$1,000,000, or
The total amount of deposits made into the Housing Asset Fund over the preceding four years.
Only amounts more than this threshold are considered an excess surplus. Once an excess surplus is determined, a housing successor must account for these funds separately and encumber said monies within three years. If after the third year the excess surplus has not been fully encumbered, the remaining balance of the excess surplus is to be transferred to HCD within 90 days. HCD is permitted to use these transferred excess surplus funds anywhere in the State under its Multifamily Housing Program or the Joe Serna, Jr. Farmworker Housing Grant Program.
As part of the Annual Report, a housing successor must disclose any excess surplus and describe the housing successor’s plan for eliminating this excess surplus.
HOUSING ASSET FUND ACTIVITY
This section details the Housing Successor’s activities in FY 2024-25 as reported in the City’s Housing Asset Fund.
DEPOSITS AND FUND BALANCE
The Housing Successor deposited $363,347 into the Housing Asset Fund in FY 2024-25. Deposits consisted of loan repayments and interest as seen in Table 1. 118

120
Hercules Housing Successor Annual Report FY 2024-25 9
121
Hercules Housing Successor Annual Report FY 2024-25 10
REAL PROPERTY AND DISPOSITION STATUS
The Agency transferred no real properties to the City on the HAT. Therefore, the City complies with HSC Sections 33334.16 and 34176.1(e) by default, which require that all real properties acquired by the Agency prior to February 1, 2012, and transferred to the City be developed for affordable housing purposes or disposed of within five years from the date DOF approved the HAT.
LOANS RECEIVABLE
The former Agency transferred several loans to the Housing Successor on the HAT, detailed as follows.
Note the balances reflected in this report match the City’s accounting records as of June 30, 2025 which may not fully account for loan modifications made throughout the year. Bridge Housing: Bridge Housing corporation entered an agreement on May 28, 1998, to finance predevelopment and construction activities. The loan had an outstanding balance of $2.3 million as of June 30, 2025. It accrues 3.5 percent simple interest per annum and has a 45-year term. Eden Housing: On July 1, 2002, Eden Housing, Inc. entered an agreement for a $700,000 loan.
Following the purchase of a vacant lot, the borrower constructed 51 units of affordable housing for lower income seniors. This loan has a 55-year term and accrues 3 percent simple interest.
The outstanding balance as of June 30, 2025 was $345,063. First Time Homebuyer: As of June 30, 2025, First Time Home Buyer loans had an outstanding balance of $842,923. These loans aided low to moderate income first time homebuyers. The loans accrue 3 percent simple interest per annum with a 30-year term. City-Wide Employee Incentive Homeownership Program: The Citywide Employee Incentive Homeownership Program an outstanding balance of $89,600 as of June 30, 2025. This program assisted low to moderate income homebuyers in eligible job categories. The loans have no interest over a 30-year term.
Homeownership Retention / Loss Mitigation Loan Program: The Homeownership Retention and Loss Mitigation Program helped low to moderate income homeowners who were at risk of foreclosure. The outstanding balance was $1,882,029 as of June 30, 2025. The loans accrue simple interest ranging from 3 to 5 percent with a term that varies from 30 to 45 years. BEGIN Homeownership Program: The BEGIN Homeownership Program is a statewide program that helped low to moderate income first-time homebuyers. As of June 30, 2025, the outstanding 122
Hercules Housing Successor Annual Report FY 2024-25 11 balance was 180,000. The loans have a 30-year term and do not accrue interest unless the balance is not paid upon the event of acceleration, in which case they start accruing one percent interest.
Inclusionary Housing Homeownership Program: The Inclusionary Housing Homeownership Program aided low to moderate income homebuyers to purchase homes. As of June 30, 2025, the loans had an outstanding balance of $675,000 to be paid over a 40-year term with 3 percent simple interest.
Rehabilitation and Beautification: As of June 30, 2025, there was $146,463 in outstanding loans in the Rehabilitation and Beautification Program. The Program aided low- and moderate-income homeowners with home repairs. The loans have a 3 percent simple interest rate over a 30-year term.
Home Emergency Repair: The Home Emergency Repair Program had an outstanding balance of $25,511 as of June 30, 2025. The program helped low to moderate income homeowners fund emergency repairs. These loans have a 10-year term with a 3 percent simple interest rate.
SENIOR RENTAL HOUSING LIMIT COMPLIANCE
The Housing Successor complies with the limit allowing no more than 50 percent of the total aggregate number of deed-restricted rental units produced within the preceding ten years to be restricted to seniors.
The most recent ten-year period is FY 2015-16 through 2024-25. Due to the City electing to become the Housing Successor in February 2024, the Housing Successor, City, and former Agency have assisted no projects in the past ten years. Therefore, the City is in compliance with this requirement.
EXCESS SURPLUS
The Housing Asset Fund may not accumulate an “excess surplus”, or an unencumbered amount that exceeds the greater of $1 million or the sum of deposits in the prior four fiscal years. This requirement ensures that housing successors are actively spending available Housing Asset Funds on affordable housing. Any excess surplus must be expended or encumbered within three fiscal years. If a housing successor fails to comply, it must transfer any excess surplus to HCD within 90 days of the end of the third fiscal year.
As detailed in Table 4 and described in last year’s annual report, the Housing Successor accumulated an excess surplus of $2,745,141 in FY 2023-24. FY 2024-25 administrative expenditures reduced the 123
Hercules Housing Successor Annual Report FY 2024-25 12 excess surplus to $2,685,377. The Housing Successor must expend or encumber the remaining FY 2023-24 excess surplus by June 30, 2027 to avoid remitting funds to HCD.
As detailed in Table 5, the Housing Successor also accumulated an excess surplus in FY 2024-25. In an effort to not double count the available cash balance, Table 5 deducts the remaining FY 2023-24 excess surplus from the FY 2024-25 beginning cash balance. HSC allows for encumbered funds to be subtracted from the fund balance as part of the calculation. The FY 2024-25 beginning unencumbered cash balance of $3,199,940 was higher than the sum of deposits in the prior four years of $2,933,519, resulting in a FY 2024-25 excess surplus of $266,421. The 2024-25 excess surplus must be encumbered or spent by June 30, 2028.
124
Hercules Housing Successor Annual Report FY 2024-25 13
Housing successors must eliminate any excess surplus by expending or encumbering the funds within three fiscal years. If a housing successor fails to comply, it must transfer any excess surplus to HCD within 90 days of the end of the third fiscal year.

Failure to comply with the extremely low-income requirement in any five-year compliance period will result in having to ensure that 50 percent of remaining funds be spent on extremely low- income rental units until in compliance.
Exceeding the expenditure limit for low households earning between 60-80% AMI in any five-year reporting period will result in not being able to expend any funds on these income
categories until in compliance.
Age Targets
Rolling Ten-
Year Period
For the prior ten years (resets every year), a maximum of 50% of deed-restricted rental housing units assisted by the Housing Successor or its host jurisdiction may be restricted to seniors.

STAFF REPORT TO THE CITY COUNCIL
DATE: Regular Meeting of March 24, 2026
TO: Mayor and Members of the City Council
VIA: Dante Hall, City Manager
SUBMITTED BY: Glenn Dombeck, Public Works Director
Edwin Gato, Director of Finance
SUBJECT: Budget Workshop: Fiscal Year 2026 -27 Capital Projects Proposed Budget and Ten-Year Capital Improvement Projects Plan
RECOMMENDED ACTION:
Staff recommends that the City Council receive a presentation and provide feedback on the proposed projects, funding allocations, and prioritization for the Fiscal Year (FY) 2026- 27 Proposed Capital Projects Budget and the associated Ten-Year Capital Improvement Plan (CIP).
EXECUTIVE SUMMARY:
The Capital Improvement Plan (CIP) serves as a comprehensive strategic outline for a multi-year effort dedicated to enhancing and maintaining critical infrastructure. This plan effectively transforms complex, multi -million-dollar infrastructure requirements into a prioritized and actionable agenda for the forthcoming fiscal year s. It carefully navigates the constraints associated with limited funding sources, ensuring that essential improvements are both feasible and sustainable, ultimately contributing to the long -term vitality and resilience of our community infrastructure.
BACKGROUND:
The CIP articulates a vision for both short - and long-term project delivery and funding, aiming to maintain, enhance, and construct new and existing infrastructure assets that serve the needs of residents, businesses, property owners, and visitors. The CIP serves as a critical link among the General Plan, Parks Master Plan, and various other master 162
planning documents, while also incorporating available resources to provide a structured framework for the planning, scheduling, and execution of capital projects over the next ten years.
The CIP plan is intended to integrate the City’s investments in infrastructure development and maintenance —commonly referred to as capital improvements —with other substantial capital expenditures that contribute to or strategically advance the City’s asset inventory. Projects within the CIP are identified as any long-term investment that builds, replaces, or improves an asset (e.g., facilities, roads, parks, sewers, and drainage systems), possesses a useful life of no less than five years, and incurs a minimum cos t of $50,000.
A fundamental distinction between capital and operating budgets lies in the approval process; capital projects receive approval in one fiscal year, yet their completion may extend over multiple years. Conversely, operating budgets typically concentrate on ongoing maintenance and adhere to a "use-it-or-lose-it" principle at the conclusion of the fiscal year, resulting in any unspent funds being returned to the General Fund.
ANALYSIS:
The proposed FY 2026 –27 CIP Budget and the associated Ten -Year CIP represent a comprehensive, long -range strategy to maintain, rehabilitate, and invest in the City’s critical infrastructure. The City continues its commitment to a “fix -it-first” philosophy, concentrating limited resources on essential improvements to streets, parks, facilities, sewer infrastructure, and the Hercules Hub.
This year’s CIP Budget builds upon prior Council direction, master-planning documents, and condition -based assessments to prioritize projects that address safety, regulatory compliance, asset preservation, and community needs. The projects identified for funding from the Ten-Year CIP have been selected in accordance with the strategic objectives established in the 2024 Parks and Recreation Facilities Master Plan , 2020 Collection System Master Plan Update, 2022 Pavement Management Program, and 2024 Building Assessment Report. These documents collectively inform the prioritization of capital investments and ensure that projects are aligned with long-term infrastructure strategies.
This careful prioritization ensures alignment with limited resources and effectively addresses community needs.
Consistent with prior years, capital funding remains heavily constrained and is largely dependent on restricted revenues in specialized funds such as Gas Tax, SB1, Measure J, and the Sewer Enterprise Fund. The General Fund plays a limited but flexible role and continues to serve as the primary funding source for several high -priority projects and match requirements for grant-funded initiatives.
163
Overall, the FY 2026–27 CIP presents a balanced and realistic capital work plan for the upcoming year within the constraints of available resources. Staff will continue to pursue grant opportunities, partnerships, and long-term financing strategies to reduce the City’s unfunded capital backlog and ensure that infrastructure investments remain aligned with Council priorities and community needs.
As always, City staff are committed to being responsive to the community's identified priorities. Recently, the City conducted a survey for the Service Priorities Study in winter 2025 to gather information about the types of priorities our community is interested in.
Some highlights of that study, as they pertain to our CIP, are noted below.
Streets and Transportation. The Ten-Year CIP Streets Program continues to face the most significant long -term funding pressure, with pavement conditions projected to decline under current expenditure levels. The FY 2026 –27 CIP Budget includes the Foxboro Neighborhood Street Rehabilitation project, with plans to complete Phase 1 construction in the upcoming fiscal year and preparation of future phases that will address remaining deteriorated segments. Additional streets investments include the Annual Street Repair Program, John Muir Parkway improvements, and planning/design for the Sycamore Avenue Bike/Pedestrian Connector. While the Ten-Year CIP Streets Program outlines a $16.8 million program, funding gaps remain for several high -priority projects, including the Gateway Monument Sign and portions of the Sycamore Avenue Connector, which will require targeted grant pursuit and future appropriations.
Seventy-three to seventy -seven percent of respondents in the City’s recent survey indicated that repairing potholes and deteriorating streets, and preventing streets from deteriorating further, should be prioritized by the City —and they want the City to make it safer to drive and walk in the City by making these repairs, before they become more expensive in the future.
Parks and Recreation. Hercules has 13 different parks and nearly 500 park assets, including recreation facilities, fields, playgrounds, restrooms, and trails. Most of these are rated as being in “fair” condition. Reinvesting in the park system remains a top community priority and a significant financial challenge. The FY 2026 –27 CIP Budget allocates full funding for two major park projects: the Refugio Lake Restoration Project and the final design and construction at Beechnut Park. These projects support key recommendations from the Parks Master Plan and address safety, ecological health, and recreational needs. Although the Ten -Year CIP Parks Program totals around $35.5 million, about 96 percent of this plan is currently unfunded. Future funding strategies —such as grants, partnerships, and exploring financing tools —will be necessary for large -scale improvements at Ohlone Park, Hann a Ranch Park, Refugio Valley Park, and other neighborhood parks.
164
In the Winter survey, the community expressed that they want the City’s parks and community facilities to be in better condition, and 70% say that improving parks should continue to be a priority of the City’s.
Facilities. City facilities continue to experience aging infrastructure and deferred maintenance needs. The FY 2026 –27 CIP Budget for facilities is entirely supported by prior-year General Fund/Capital Reserve balances, with no new appropriations proposed for this fiscal year. Active projects include critical life -safety, electrical, ADA, and operational improvements at City Hall, the Community Swim Center, the Senior Center, the Library, the Foxboro Community Center, and other facil ities. The Ten -Year CIP Facilities Program identifies more than $ 8.3 million in unfunded future needs across multiple buildings, reflecting the continued challenge of maintaining essential public facilities within available resources.
Sewer System . The Ten-Year CIP Sewer Program is financially stable due to its dedicated enterprise funding structure. The FY 2026–27 Budget advances high-priority collection system rehabilitation, including design of the Willow –Newbury Sewer Rehabilitation Project and continued funding of an annual sewer condition assessment program. The Ten-Year CIP Sewer Program remains fully funded over the ten -year horizon, though several large, long-range projects—such as the Promenade Lift Station Improvements and future trunk main upgrades —will require reevaluation as hydraulic modeling and operational analyses progress as well as pursuit of grant funding opportunities.
Hercules Hub. Our community views the future vision of the Hercules Hub as a great opportunity to reducing traffic congestion by completing the bus, train, and ferry service planned at the Hercules Waterfront . The Hercules Hub continues to be the City’s most transformative and long-term transportation infrastructure initiative. The FY 2026–27 CIP Budget includes funding for ongoing design, environmental, and planning activities supported by a combination of General Fund/Capital Reserves and competi tive grant sources. The City continues to pursue significant state and federal funding —including recently submitted Federal Support Program applications —to advance the rail station design and multimodal access improvements. While major construction will de pend on securing substantial outside funding, the City’s continued progress on preliminary phases positions the Hub to remain competitive for future infrastructure programs.
Funding Sources:
The Capital Improvement Projects are funded almost exclusively by restricted fund revenues.
The Sewer Fund plays a crucial role in enhancing the City's infrastructure by focusing on the maintenance and replacement of the sewer systems. 165
The Transportation Fund encompasses various revenue sources, including the Gas Tax, Measure J, and the SB1 Road Maintenance and Repair Account, all of which stem from voter-approved initiatives to improve transportation infrastructure. While the General Fund historically accounts for a smaller share of the overall capital budget, it is worth noting that it is unrestricted. This flexibility allows it to support a diverse range of public infrastructure projects that meet the community's needs.
To further enhance funding opportunities for approved Capital Improvement Projects, the City has engaged California Consulting, a grant writing consultancy.
Their expertise will help identify and apply for relevant grants, thereby maximizing resources and supporting the City's strategic initiatives.
FISCAL IMPACT:
The FY 2026-27 CIP Budget fully funds all near -term, deliverable capital projects while establishing a long -range outlook for the remaining years of the Ten -Year CIP. The proposed FY 2026-27 CIP Budget appropriates a total of $3.77 million in capital project funding across facilities, parks, streets and sewer.
Funding consists primarily of restricted transportation and sewer funds, supplemented by General Fund/Capital Reserves and prior -year carryover appropriations. Restricted transportation and sewer revenues provide stable support for core assets, while General Fund/Capital Reserves continue to play a targeted but critical role for project match commitments and park improvements. An additional approximately $2.268 million expenditure is projected on progressing the Hercules Hub. A summary of FY 2026 -27 appropriations by CIP category is provided below.
CIP Category FY 2026-27
Funding
Primary Funding Sources
Streets $1,436,000 General Fund/Capital Reserves, SB1 RMRA, Measure J, Gas Tax, MTC TDA3
Parks $1,895,995 General Fund/Capital Reserves, EBRPD WW Grant, Prop 68, Parks Impact Fees
Facilities $0 General Fund/Capital Reserves (funded from prior-year carryover estimated at $715,679)
Sewer $444,700 Sewer Enterprise Fund (rate-supported)
Hercules Hub $2,268,500 General Fund/Capital Reserves, TIRCP, WCCTAC STMP, Federal earmark
TOTAL $6,035,195 —
Across the full ten -year period of the CIP , excluding the Hercules Hub , there exist approximately $76.6 million in total capital needs. Of th at amount, $41.9 million (54.7%) 166
remains unfunded and will require future appropriations, grant awards, or other financing strategies. The largest long-term unfunded needs are concentrated in parks and facilities projects.
Projects with prior City Council appropriations that were not fully expended have remaining appropriation balances that are carried forward. These amounts are strictly estimates and will be reconciled at year-end. Amounts reflected in the projected carryover column should not be construed as funds available for commitment. In many cases, the carryover estimate includes funds that have been encumbered or committed under an executed contract.
The Ten-Year CIP is designed to align physical enhancements with comprehensive financial planning, thereby maximizing the benefits derived from available funding sources. Th e CIP primarily utilizes resources from various funding streams, largely distributed within the capital and special revenue funds, which have specific restrictions on their use. Additionally, the City has adopted a resolution (22 -056) amending the statement of financial principles and policies to allocate any General Fund surplus to the capital reserve, ensuring a dedicated resource to address capital requirements.
Nonetheless, the long-term financial forecast anticipates little reserve accumulation due to limited or nonexistent surpluses. It is therefore imperative to explore alternative sources of income to support these critical infrastructure projects.

Hercules - The Hub
Design
Environmental mitigation work from previous construction phases is on-going. A funding plan has been created to complete the final design, utility relocations, and construction of the remainder of the Hub. The budget in coming years is dependent upon recieving grants.
The City set aside $3M in the General Fund/Capital Reserves as the City's local contribution. Most recently, the City was successful in securing $2.4M of State TIRCP funds towards final design.
Moving forward, a total of $107.7M is needed to complete the infrastructure for a train stop, of which it is proposed $104.7M be funded with grants.

STAFF REPORT TO THE CITY COUNCIL
DATE: Regular Meeting of March 24, 2026
TO: Mayor and Members of the City Council
VIA: Dante Hall, City Manager
SUBMITTED BY: Glenn Dombeck, Public Works Director/City Engineer SUBJECT: Proposition 218 Proceedings for Hercules Village Landscaping and Lighting Assessment District No. 2002-2
RECOMMENDED ACTION:
City staff is requesting direction from City Council regarding the timing of Proposition 218 proceedings to increase annual assessments for the Hercules Village Landscaping and Lighting Assessment District No. 2002-2.
BACKGROUND:
On February 24, 2026, City Council adopted a resolution initiating the annual process to levy and collect assessments through the City’s five Lands caping and Lighting Assessment Districts (LLADs) and ordering the preparation of the annual Engineer’s Report for each LLAD as required by the Landscaping and Lighting Act of 1972.
Hercules Village Landscaping and Lighting Assessment District No. 2002 -2 (Hercules Village LLAD) is experiencing annual operating deficits between $40,000 to $60,000 over the past several years . This has gradually depleted the reserve fund balance such that the Hercules Village LLAD will enter an overall deficit at the end of Fiscal Year 2026–27 if assessments are not increased. The financial challenges currently facing the Hercules Village LLAD are largely the result of significant external cost pressures that have increased over the past several years. Drought conditions have required increased irrigation to preserve existing landscaping. During this same period, water rates have also increased significantly . In addition, landscaping maintenance needs have evolved as trees originally planted as part of the development have matured and specialized contract tree-trimming services not anticipated in the original scope of work are needed . The combined effect has been rising expenditures for the Hercules Village LLAD. 225
On February 24 th, City staff sought City Co uncil approval to conduct Proposition 218 proceedings to increase annual assessments within the Hercules Village LLAD beginning in Fiscal Year 2026 –27 to address the annual operating deficit. This process offers the most expeditious approach to restoring a dequate LLAD reserves by c ompleting the required Proposition 218 process ahead of the Contra Costa County Auditor’s August 10, 2026 deadline to place assessments on the Fiscal Year 2026 –27 property tax roll. If property owners and the City Council approve the proposed assessment increases, the updated assessments would be placed on the property tax roll, with the first installment due on December 10, 2026.
City Council requested that staff provide additional information regarding the financial impacts of p ostponing the Proposition 218 proceedings to the Fiscal Year 2027 –28 property tax roll. The purpose of this agenda item is to provide the requested information to City Council and receive direction regarding the timing for conducting the Proposition 218 proceedings.
ANALYSIS:
Assessment Increase Scenarios
An annual assessment increase of $50 over eight years ($400 total) was initially estimated to eliminate the annual operating deficit for the Hercules Village LLAD by Fiscal Year 2031–32 and to eliminate the cumulative fund deficit in approximately 10 years.
However, the City intends to issue a competitive bidding process for its landscaping maintenance contract during Fiscal Year 2026 –27, and City staff expect costs may rise from current levels. Therefor e, a $50 annual assessment increase over 10 years ($500 total) is recommended as a precaution to cover potential increases in landscape maintenance costs. Even with a 25% rise in maintenance costs, this scenario would eliminate the annual operating deficit by Fiscal Year 2033–34 and resolve the cumulative fund deficit in roughly 15 years.
Proposition 218 Process Options
Option 1: Proceed Now (FY 2026-27 Tax Roll) - If City Council directs staff to proceed with Proposition 218 proceedings for the Hercules Village LLAD for the upcoming Fiscal Year 2026 -27 property tax roll, t he remaining schedule will run concurrently with the annual approval process for all five of the City’s LLADs as outlined below:
April 28, 2026: City Council preliminarily approves the Engineer’s Reports for all LLADs and adopts the Resolutions of Intention.
No Later than May 8, 2026: Mail required Proposition 218 notices and ballots to Hercules Village LLAD property owners (must occur a minimum o f 45 days prior to public hearing).
June 23, 2026: City Council conducts public hearing for all LLADs, closes balloting period and conducts ballot tabulation for the Hercules Village LLAD, 226
declares results of the ballot tabulation for the Hercules Village LLAD, and approves the Final Engineer’s Reports and FY 2026/27 assessments for all LLADs.
Proceeding with Proposition 218 processes for the upcoming fiscal year would allow the District to avoid entering a negative overall fund balance and to begin restoring reserves earlier. This approach also keeps the process aligned with the City’s annual LLAD approval schedule, making sure that any approved assessment increase appears on the December 2026 property tax bill.
However, moving forward immediately provide s less time for expanded public outreach to property owners, which may limit opportunities for education and engagement. In addition, the assessment increase would need to be set before the City completes its new landscape maintenance procurement, meaning the final contract costs would not yet be known when the assessment amount is established.
Option 2 : Postpone to FY 2027 -28 - If the City Council decides to postpone the Proposition 218 proceedings to the Fiscal Year 2027 –28 property tax roll, the Distric t is projected to incur a cumulative fund deficit of approximately $50,000 by the end of Fiscal Year 2026–27. This would extend the timeline to eliminate the cumulative fund deficit by one to two years, depending on future inflationary cost trends. Postponing Proposition 218 proceedings would provide additional time to conduct outreach and inform Hercules Village property owners of the LLAD's financial outlook . It would also allow the assessment amount to be calibrated once the new landscape maintena nce contract pricing is known, ensuring that any proposed increase more accurately reflects updated cost information. However, portions of the current Proposition 218 preparation work would need to be repeated, resulting in some duplication of effort and cost.
Additionally, it is recommended that the Proposition 218 noticing process be conducted no earlier than March 2027 or as late as May 2027, thus the schedule would be similar to Option 1 above, just postponed by 10 or 12 months. There is no advantage to a mid-year adjustment since the assessment increases would not be levied on the property tax roll until Fiscal Year 2027-28 with the first installment due in December 2027.
Under Option 2, the City would incur approximately $17,250 in total costs. This includes the full $14,000 needed for a separate Proposition 218 process, approximately $1,750 already spent on the current effort, and an additional $1,500 for enhanced outreach, such as an informational mailing, a website FAQ, and a virtual meeting.
Staff requests that the City Council provide direction on the timing of the Proposition 218 proceedings for the Hercules Village LLAD. Specifically, the Council must determine whether to move forward with the proceedings now, allowing the assessment increase to be placed on the FY 2026 –27 tax roll, or to postpone the process until the FY 2027 –28 cycle. Postponing would provide additional time for outreach and allow the assessment 227
to be refined once updated maintenance contract costs are known, but it would also delay revenue recovery and extend the District’s deficit timeline.
FISCAL IMPACT:
If Proposition 218 proceedings are not conducted to approve assessment increases for the Hercules Village LLAD, it is anticipated that an annual deficit of over $50,000 will arise, starting in Fiscal Year 2026 –27, to maintain landscaping and streetlighting improvements associated with the Hercules Village LLAD at current service levels.
