Mr. Walker and Ms. Ward had nothing to report.

2. UNFINISHED BUSINESS: None

3. NEW BUSINESS:
a. Discussion/Related Action to Adopt RESOLUTION #24-07 Approving the Similar Use Determination for the Property Located at 625 E Fifth Street (APN 045-272-007) for New Construction of Labor Housing Jeorge Galvan, City Planner
Mr. Galvan communicated pertinent exposition regarding the Planning Commission meeting that was held Tuesday, February 20th, where Peri & Sons initially presented information to support the approval of the Similar Use Determination and Conditional Use Permit. The decision of the Planning Commission was to recommend the Council to approve the applications for the Similar Use and Conditional Use Permits. Therefore, the objective of the Council this night was to evaluate if the Farm Labor Housing project could be determined as a similar use as the uses set by the Downtown D-B code, with the consideration of the decision of the Planning Commission. Mr. Galvan explained the potential similarities and differences of the Farm Labor Housing project in comparison to the Downtown D-B code. Brad Johnston from Peri & Sons Farms introduced himself and other interested parties on the matter in attendance. He offered the Council to provide the same presentation he gave at the Planning Commission meeting, or to address concerns instead. They chose the latter option.

Mr. Johnston or City staff answered questions from the Council on topics including security, use of the facility during unoccupied months, fencing, parking, non-H-2A staff, the construction timeline, and the potential affect on the census. Page 2 of 5
A Public Hearing was opened by Mayor Anderson at 6:47 PM David Smith (628 E 6th Street) revisted the public comment he made at the Planning Commission meeting about the potential burden of the Farm Labor Housing on the municipal utilities. He acknowledged the answer he received from Mr. Wells, who informed him that the City has the capacity to double its service, but was still wondering if the water pipes and sewerline can withstand the additional usage. Mr. Smith feels that there should be a report that confirms the capability of the system.

Mr. Galvan further assured Mr. Smith that the capacity of the system is sufficient. He did note that the topic of water drainage did need to be addressed by Peri & Sons Farms.

The Public Hearing was closed at 6:51 PM.

A motion was made by Mr. Pacheco and seconded by Ms. Ward to approve the action as presented.

The motion passed in the form of a roll call vote.

AYES: Goodsell, Pacheco, Ward, Anderson
NOES: None
ABSENT: Munger
ABSTAIN: None
b. Discussion/Related Action to Adopt RESOLUTION #24-08 Approving the Conditional Use Permit for the Property Located at 625 E Fifth Street (APN 045-272-007) for New Construction of Labor Housing Jeorge Galvan, City Planner
Discussion in the previous agenda item recapitulated vital information applicable to item 3 b.

Mr. Galvan clarified the difference is that action on this item is to approve the Conditional Use Permit, as opposed to the Similar Use Permit. He explained the procedures for applying for a Conditional Use Permit. In this case, the Conditional Use Permit must address shortcomings in the existing standard conditions in relation to this specific project. For example, the proposed 66-unit development would require 116 parking spaces, but the applicant has requested a variance to allow for 90 parking spaces due to a lack of necessity for the full required amount.

A Public Hearing was opened by Mayor Anderson at 6:56 PM Brad Johnston stated that Peri & Sons Farms has no objections to the variances in the Conditional Use Permit application.

Mr. Anderson asked a few questions about the square footage of the units.

The Public Hearing was closed at 6:59 PM.

A motion was made by Mr. Goodsell and seconded by Ms. Ward to approve the action as presented.

The motion passed in the form of a roll call vote.

AYES: Goodsell, Pacheco, Ward, Anderson
NOES: None
ABSENT: Munger
ABSTAIN: None

c. Discussion/Related Action to Adopt RESOLUTION #24-09 Approving the Extension of Sewer Services Outside of City Limits to the Property Located at 1991 Underwood Road (APN 050-216-001) Jeorge Galvan, City Planner
Mr. Galvan explained that John Higginbottom is requesting sewer services to his property at 1991 Underwood Road, which is outside of City limits, but within the scope of the City's influence.

The applicant will be responsible for all fees and conditions. Mr. Anderson was curious as to why the applicant was requesting sewer and not water services. Mr. Wells explained that Mr. Higginbottom will be performing septic repairs and does not require water services. The agreement will be mututally beneficial.

A motion was made by Mr. Pacheco and seconded by Mr. Goodsell to approve the action as presented.

The motion passed in the form of a roll call vote.

AYES: Goodsell, Pacheco, Ward, Anderson
NOES: None
ABSENT: Munger
ABSTAIN: None
d. Discussion/Related Action to Adopt RESOLUTION #24-10 Approving the Extension of Water Utility Services Outside of City Limits to the Property Located at 1912 East Underwood Road (APN 050-211-012) Jeorge Galvan, City Planner
Similar to the previous item, Mr. Galvan explained that Thomas Gysi is requesting water services to his property at 1912 East Underwood Road, located outside of City limits but within the service area.

In contrast to the previous item concering extending sewer services, a double utility rate is applicable when extending water services. The applicant will be responsible for all fees and conditions and the City will benefit from the doubled service rate.

A motion was made by Mr. Goodsell and seconded by Ms. Ward to approve the action as presented.

The motion passed in the form of a roll call vote.

AYES: Goodsell, Pacheco, Ward, Anderson
NOES: None
ABSENT: Munger
ABSTAIN: None
e. Discussion/Related Action to Adopt RESOLUTION #24-11 Awarding a Contract for Construction of the Ninth Street (Ash to Oak) Pedestrian Improvement Project Jeorge Galvan, City Planner
Mr. Galvan reminded the Council that the contract for Resident Engineering and Construction Management (RE/CM) for the Ninth Street East Improvements Project was awarded at a recent previous meeting. The construction portion of the project received two bids. Staff recommended the lowest and most responsive bidder to the Council, Pyramid Construction & Aggregate Inc.

Mr. Galvan explained that a shortfall in the RE/CM budget can be compensated by the excess funds made available by the significantly low bid for construction. An application was submitted to Caltrans to approve the reallocation of the funds. Mr. Wells added that ultimately, staff will find a way to utilize all available funding, potentially by embellishing the project to include more components.

A motion was made by Ms. Ward and seconded by Mr. Goodsell to approve the action as presented.

The motion passed in the form of a roll call vote.

4. INFORMATION ONLY:
a. Discussion Only Regarding Purchase of Vehicle for Public Works Department Adriana Anguis, Finance Supervisor
Ms. Anguis explained that the Public Works Department has a fleet of trucks that are significantly old and have been anticipated to need replacement. $25,500 was approved in the 2023-24 FY budget for the purchase of a vehicle for the PW Department. The truck used by the Public Works Supervisor, Alex Chavez, has presented with the most mechanical issues recently. Mr. Chavez and Ms. Anguis scoped out a suitable vehicle that was within the budget and were recently notified by a local dealer, IV Auto Group, of a matching truck. They purchased a 2017 Chevrolet Silverado 1500 for $24,021.38 on March 6th. Approval from the Council was not necessary because the expense was budgeted, therefore Ms. Anguis proceeded with the purchase without notifying the Council as to not miss this advantageous opportunity. She presented this information before the Council as a courtesy.

DATE ISSUED:

FROM: Nick Wells, City Manager
SUBJECT: Resolution No. 24-13 Adopting a Revised 2023-24 Salary Schedule ISSUE: calling for an election to be conducted by the
Shall the City Council approve Resolution No. 24-13 Adopting a Revised 2023-24 Salary Schedule? DISCUSSION:

When the City brought Building Inspection "in house" in 2019, due partly to the fact that an untrained part time firefighter offered to take classes and training to become fuctional in the position, a decision to merely raise his level of compensation was made with virtually no investigation into similar compensation for the position. Due to similar situations in multiple occurences of turnover in the position, that compensation level had heretofore never been fully examined.

Due to recent events, the City's Human Resources Technician surveyed other area entities for their compensation of similar positions. There is some disparity of job duties and levels of responsibility, but at the very least, Holtville is far below any other entity in compensating this position.

After examining this disparity and some consultation with the current Building Inspector, the City Manager is proposing to raise the Range of the position and the entry level Step A to $21 per hour.

Although the City will still be lowest of the agencies in the County, the compensation will now be in a relevant range with the them. The resulting change for this version of the schedule is listed below.

1. The "Building Inspector" position has been shifted upward to Step 37, with Step A equating to a starting pay rate of $21.00 per hour. The current Building Inspector is presently at Step C.

The Building Inspector's compensation is partially offset by Building Permit fees. An examination of Building Permit is necessary and may result in additional funds to offset this function.

FISCAL IMPACT:

The impact is in General Fund, with an additional $6,857 in annual salary currently, along with approximately 30% additional for employer taxes and benefits.

CITY MANAGER RECOMMENDATION:

It is recommended that the City Council adopt the Salary Schedule as presented.

ALTERNATIVE:

1. Adopt Resolution 24-13 as presented

2. Keep the position at the current compensation level, paying overtime for extra hours.

3. Choose not to adopt, giving alternate direction.

INFORMATION ONLY – NO ACTION REQUIRED AT THIS TIME

WATER ENTERPRISE
Rate Study – The profitability of the Water Enterprise has been problematic in recent years. Coupled with the debt covenant to budget a net revenue of 120% of the annual debt service, a rate adjustment has been explored. A formal Water Rate Study must be completed, which will be brought back for discussion at some point in the future.

PUBLIC WORKS

TRANSPORTATION PROJECTS
East Ninth Street Sidewalk Improvements – The City was awarded CMAQ money to complete this project through Caltrans and ICTC. Holt Group completed design on the project in late 2023. Staff worked with LAFCo, the County and a private landowner to finalize jurisdiction and easements in the project area.

SB1 funding was allocated to this and the West Ninth project in July, 2023. Advertising to procure contractors was run in January and Nicklaus Engineering (NEI) was selected as the RE/CM for the project.

A project kickoff meeting was held in early March with NEI, THG and staff to discuss issues and responsibilities. The construction bid opening was held on Tuesday, February 13, 2024, with a low bid actually coming in below the projected project cost. A request was made to Caltrans to reallocate some of the funding to cover some non-construction costs. Contract documents have been completed by the contractor and counter signed by the City. A pre-con meeting is expected next week.

Pear Canal Undergrounding/Ninth Street Improvements (Olive to Melon) – this project has been discussed for some time. Initial action to proceed was taken in early 2021. A deposit was forwarded to IID to begin design and multiple site visits with staff, the IID and City Engineer took place to discuss issues that need to be addressed in design. Undergrounding work was scheduled to take place in December 2021, however, delays were discussed in those meetings from the IID side which eventually led to construction work being pushed back. The City has been awarded funding through ICTC for the resulting necessary sidewalk and roadway improvements, however that funding will not be available until at least October, 2023, so this is not an issue from our standpoint. A conversation with Mr. Hawk revealed that he is waiting for this project to take place to begin construction of his adjacent housing project. LC Engineering was awarded the contract for design in February.

A construction challenge for IID existed for this project, as it would make it difficult to continue to service several nearby County-area residences served by surface water. It was determined that incentivizing these properties to convert to City water would be in the best interest of the project. Staff worked with IID on companion communication to those residents to encourage them to switch. At one point, IID had identified that only two properties remained that needed conversion, but staff met with them in July, 2023, and they Meeting Date 03/25/24

agreed to convert to City service! City staff has worked with IID staff to double check total compliance (2 more residences were discovered that need to be contacted) and is working with a local contractor to estimate the cost of installation. Staff renewed attempts to contact the remaining residents. One of the 2 has now expressed an interest in starting City water service. Last week the final remaining holdout submitted paperwork to connect to City water service, so staff is working on establishing physical connections.

Pine Avenue Sidewalks – Subsequent to the awards of funding for streets projects utilizing Federal Highways dollars through ICTC in early 2022, another year of projects was quickly requested to be added.

Holtville submitted a project to capture CMAQ dollars to add sidewalks to either side of Pine Avenue between Fourth and Fifth Streets. Action to approve was taken in October, 2023.

PARKS
Holtville Wetlands Project – In late 2016, approximately $3 million was granted to the City through the US Bureau of Reclamation (BoR). THG was selected for Grant Administration tasks and George Cairo Engineering (GCE) for design services. GCE was significantly behind schedule from the outset, but finally produced approved plans in 2021.

A construction RFP was released in early 2022. Only one bid was submitted, which was significantly over (+/- $1.4 million) the construction budget. A status conference was held with BoR to strategize and discuss options, as staff began working on potential solutions, such as augmented grant funds from other sources and “value engineering” to trim the cost of the project. The contractor committed to holding their bid for a few more months. The BoR representative, Jeremy Brooks, was extremely helpful in moving the project along. In September, 2022, he was able to secure funding to bridge the gap to pay for construction. That funding was officially awarded in early February, 2023. Action to officially award the construction contract was taken in March and a pre-con meeting was held in early May, with the contractor onsite performing various activities simultaneously.

The site has now been fully constituted with regard to major earth work, with some piping remaining to be completed. Additionally, the access roadway needs to be completed. A minor holdup with a permit from the Army Corps of Engineers (USACE) is currently pausing progress temporarily, but is in process. We await approval to tap into the River and begin the process of populating the beds with plant species. Although the ACE permit seems to be imminent, the project grant end date was looming on January 30. BoR was aware of the issue, but staff officially requested an extension in January, which was granted. The new completion deadline has been pushed to September, 2024. THG completed work on an additional set of documents requested by USACE and met with their representative last week. Although the application was not immediately accepted, he gave some positive feedback that things are on the right track and suggested a short list of fixes. Adrian from THG felt that he needed a week to two weeks to incorporate the changes. By mid-next week, he is going to be back in contact with USACE to try to push forward.

Railroad Trestle Repair – A grant was secured from the California Natural Resources Agency to repair the railroad trestle burned in a river bottom fire several years ago. This is necessary to connect the Trail to east side of the river and eventually the future Wetlands area. After over a decade and a half of being somewhat unsightly and unusable, the trestle will soon be fixed cosmetically and usable for pedestrian and non-motorized traffic. Documentation was finally signed for this grant in late October, 2021. The City Engineer completed the technical specification for the Scope of Work in June 2022 for the RFP. A decision was made to forestall the bid process a bit to allow construction costs to stabilize. An extension was secured in early October from the funding agency to allow this extra time. Kleinfelder, Inc., was selected for Design services in April. A meeting with the design team was held in early May wherein various facets of the project were discussed. Mayor Ward volunteered to sit in on meetings for this project when possible, so she and staff met with the design team via Zoom to discuss preliminary design concepts. Multiple ideas to control costs and stretch the project dollars were decided upon. Staff has continued to meet with the design team. 3 City Council/CM Reports (03-25’24)
Mayor Ward and the CM have proceeded with the general direction of keeping the original character of the structure, while making concessions to keep costs under control.

Staff checked in with the Design Engineer in late December. At this point, most of the structural work has been completed, with additional work needed on ancillary elements such as landscaping and the proposed picnic area. A January update meeting between the Design team, the City Planner and the CM revealed that the project had stalled due to a needed topographical study that the consultant thought the City would provide. After discussion, Kleinfelder engaged a local consultant to produce the document and the project is back in motion.

At the SCAG event in May, 2022, the City Manager had multiple discussions about a Trail extension from the Trestle to the Country Club area, then to the UC Research station and eventually to Hwy 111 for easier access to IVC with active transportation funding options. The idea was well-received and staff will be meeting with other agencies about the concept in the future. Subsequently, the head of Public Works for the County was brought in and he was enthusiastically supportive. This will be explored in a future Active Transportation funding cycle. Discussions regarding this project ramped up again recently with a new round of Active Transportation funding coming up soon.

Mellinger Alamo River Trail - A grant application through River Partners, a non-profit that deals in habitat restoration, for a project that would include our Wetlands trail spur, was unsuccessful in 2022, but a reapplication recently received approval. RP met with the City Manager and toured the site this week to kick off the project. They are in discussion with Nicklaus Engineering to design the project. Staff was contacted by NEI this week to discuss design elements.

ADMINISTRATION
Financial Audit – Multiple challenges with the new accounting software have delayed work on the City’s annual financial audit. This will impact the submission of the Single Audit of Federal funds, due March 31, however the Finance Department continues to work to rectify the issue.

Capital Improvements Project Listing – a meeting was held in November with staff, including the City Manager, City Engineer, City Planner and Water/Wastewater Lead Operator to discuss long term capital improvements needed in the City. Water system improvements, sewer system upgrades, streets projects and other issues were discussed and expected to be further explored. A more complete detailing of the discussion will be presented to the Council in the near future.

Public Safety Lot/New Construction – Rubio Medina of Irvine, California was engaged in April,2023, to perform Architecture services to design Phase I (Fire Apparatus Bay) and Phase II (PS Administration & Fire Dormitories) of this project. Staff met with Mr. Medina multiple times in early May and iterative documents were discussed and revised. Pursuant to discussions between Chief Silva, the CM and Mr.

Medina regarding configuration, direction solidified for constructing a 3-bay apparatus section and a 2-story administration/residence area. Further discussion also clarified the placement of the building on the site.

Chief Silva continues work with Mr. Medina on design elements. Council had discussion regarding the external motif of the building, which moved on to the subcommittee for the project. Feedback was provided to the architect and he was very open to incorporating ideas presented. A meeting was recently held to present updated design palettes to the subcommittee last week. Mr. Medina has some exciting ideas and is welcoming input as the project progresses. Mr. Medina is now moving forward with subconsultants for plumbing, electrical, HVAC, etc.

Multiple conversations regarding augmented funding have taken place with staff, Mayor Anderson, and various entities. Some very positive leads have developed that will continue to be pursued. 4 City Council/CM Reports (03-25’24)
BUILDING DEPT - The City issued 27 building permits in 2024. A list of permits pulled by month is available on the City’s website at http://holtville.ca.gov/section.php?id=73.

Melon, LLC Housing Project (± 50) – A project has been in the works for some time at the northeast corner of Ninth and Melon, just outside the City limits. After years of confusion regarding the process, the project’s ownership group, led by John Hawk, engaged Development Design & Engineering in 2016 to assist in shepherding the project along. DD&E completed CEQA compliance and a Mitigated Negative Declaration was adopted by the Planning Commission and City Council in late 2020.

The project was presented at Planning Commission in October 2020 and drew a good deal of public opposition. PC action pushed the project forward with a designation of allowing R-1 or R-2 development, with Council accepting the PC recommendation in November, 2020. The more dense R-2 zoning designation would allow up to 8 units per acre or approximately 65 units. The annexation was approved by LAFCo in February, 2021. We await further submission from the project proponent.

Staff spoke with Mr. Hawk multiple times to remind him that there are still several requirements to move his project forward, which he could be doing concurrently with the preparation and construction of the IID and City improvements. He said he will be speaking to his partners. As the undergrounding and street work are imminent, he still needs to produce a site plan, building plans, pull permits, etc. The City’s project should now have no bearing on his timeline. This was reiterated to Mr. Hawk again in January.

AMG Sunset Rose Senior Apartments (± 33) – In July, 2022, the City was granted HOME funding for this AMG & Associates apartment project, proposed in the area of Third and Grape. This will create some longterm oversight by the City, but it does continue to add housing. A subdivision map was approved for the property. A consultant to administer this grant was engaged in May, 2022, and an application for additional subsidized financing was approved by the City in late November.

A pre-submittal meeting was held in early November to discuss necessary aspects to the construction with the project proponent, including offsite improvements. Much of the discussion centered on handling stormwater. Final map and the necessary proposed lot split were approved in late February as well. Since the closing of the financing, several paperwork/compliance issues cropped up that the City was left to work on. This was not the “deal” as originally presented, so staff sought assistance. Staff met with HCD representatives on this project in October. We are hoping they will assist in working with the contractor to get the project running more smoothly.

Start was delayed as construction bids came in significantly over projections. The developer has now made a draw down on funding, so construction is imminent.

Peri & Sons Ag Labor Housing (66) – this project was introduced to Planning Commission earlier this week. It proposes to construct USDA-approved dormitory style housing for up to 660 H2A Visa Program agriculture laborers working for the applicant firm. PC approved the site plan and density waiver contingent on City Council approval of the land use designation and Conditional Use Permit. A Public Hearing was held at the last City Council meeting and the project was approved. We will now await more definitive site plans and building design for review.

BESS Project – A battery storage project near Melon and Sixth was proposed in early 2023 and had a flurry of meetings, submissions and communications to get approved. A permit for initial site work was granted in July. Most of the work has been completed and the facility is expected to come online soon.

The month of February was relatively calm. The Annual Carrot Festival came and went without any significant calls for HFD. We did have the great pleasure showing off our “new” ladder truck. The guys are excited to have it on our fleet. The community should comfort having the ladder truck as it will allow us to provide better service not only in suppression but rescue operations.

During the month of February, full time staff took advantage of excellent training provided by CSTI. The attended a 32 hour Incident Commander Hazardous Material Course. I attended an ammonia/lithium battery seminar in Yuma. Great courses
