Mr. Gray was ensured that those canvassing would include Holtville children.
Ricci Santisteven Pacheco, Holtville representative on the IVHA Board of Commissioners, came to update the Council on recent meetings. At the sole IVHA development in Holtville, Mesa Vista Homes on Eighth Street, there was a total of $1,400 in delinquent rent. Mesa Vista homes received a 88/100 score from state agencies. Since the score for this development is typically higher, IVHA plans to appeal this rating.
A dedication of a bench or plaque that was previously discussed is still to be determined.
Bryan Vega, Holtville representative on the IVHA Board of Commissioners, reported that he and Ms. Santisteven Pacheco have enjoyed opportunities to attend conferences and trainings in Florida and Las Vegas. As a member of the Finance Committee, he reported that there are very early discussions of a second IVHA development in Holtville.

Project: Sewer Extension Outside City Limits for 1613 East Thiesen Road Summary:
Applicants: Edgar & Benita Inzunza
Request: Applicants are proposing to connect the City of Holtville’s sewer services on a property outside City limits. Since the project is outside the City’s jurisdiction, LAFCO requires approval from the City Council.

Environmental: Exempt – 15268. Ministerial Projects
INTRODUCTION & BACKGROUND
Edgar and Benita Inzunza, property owners of 1613 East Thiesen Road, are proposing to connect the City of Holtville’s sewer service to their property. The project site is adjacent to the City of Holtville’s city boundary and within the City’s Sphere of Influence. The Imperial County Local Area Formation Commission (LAFCO), which is the agency empowered by State Law to govern boundary issues, requires a formal City Council and LAFCO action for extension of public services outside City limits.

ISSUES FOR DISCUSSION
Sewer Line Availability – Mr. and Mrs. Inzunza’s property lies directly outside of the City limits. An 18” VCP sewer pipeline is located north of the property along Thiesen Road. Sufficient capacity is available to service the proposed property and no issues relating to the connection and/or extension of the pipeline are foreseen at this moment.
The Applicants will be required to submit improvement plans prepared by a Professional Engineer duly licensed in the State of California to demonstrate that the proposed sewer line complies with City Standards. The Applicants will be responsible for the cost of preparation of the improvement plans and the actual construction of the pipelines. It is important to note that the City of Holtville, County of Imperial, and LAFCO generally prohibit the use of septic tanks and requires connection to City sewer if available within 600 lineal feet.
Sewer Service Agreement – Mr. and Mrs. Inzunza’s property lies outside of the City Limits, but is within the service area. As a requirement by the City, the consumers have agreed to the approval process and have accepted the agreement to connect to the sewer line. The consumers will be subject to all conditions and fees listed therein and may not object to annexation of the property if considered to be in the City’s best interest. The Sewer Service agreement has been attached herein but is pending execution by the consumers and all other parties (see Exhibit A – Sewer Service Agreement).
LAFCO Application Process – For any property located outside of its jurisdictional boundaries (and within its Sphere of Influence), the Imperial County Local Agency Formation Commission requires an evaluation and hearing process. The Applicants must submit a petition to receive such service which requires City approval. If a City approves to provide a service to consumers outside of the City Limits, an executed agreement must be recorded and submitted to LAFCO stating the terms and conditions for the services being requested. Additionally, the filing and approval process also requires the following documents:
1. City Council Resolution approving the Extension of Service(s).
2. Recorded Service Agreement.
3. Will serve Letter by the City Engineer.
4. Letter from the City agreeing to the Terms and Conditions of the LAFCO Resolution.
5. Letter from the Applicants’ agreeing to the Terms and Conditions.
FISCAL IMPACT
The consumer will pay all respective fees, including the pipeline extension fee, connection fee, and Sewer Impact Fee. Monthly services fees will also be collected at double the current rate. The applicants are responsible for paying all LAFCO fees. No adverse fiscal impacts are anticipated to the City.
RECOMMENDATION
Staff recommends the adoption of Resolution 26-08 approving the extension of sewer services to 1613 East Thiesen Road, subject to terms and conditions outlined in the Sewer Service Agreement.

SUBJECT: Sponsorship of 2026 SCAG Regional Conference & General Assembly ISSUE:
Shall the City Council authorize a sponsorship commitment for the 2026 SCAG Regional Conference & General Assembly?
DISCUSSION:
As you know, the City of Holtville is a member of the Southern California Association of Governments (SCAG) and participates in multiple events annually held by the organization.
Additionally, the City is the beneficiary of various funding opportunities provided by SCAG.
From promotional materials for Walk to School events, to utilization of data compiled by SCAG staff, to transportation project funding to improve local commuter arteries, the City works on an ongoing basis with assistance from the organization.
For many years, City representatives have taken part in the SCAG annual conference, frequently held in recent years at the J.W. Marriott resort in Palm Desert. That event requires a good deal of time and resources for SCAG to facilitate, so they have sought sponsors for several years to offset costs. Multiple cities in the SCAG region have elected to participate as sponsors in recent years and the idea to do so with Holtville has been put forth.
FISCAL IMPACT:
An amount to be determined drawn from the General Fund. The lowest sponsorship listed is the "Bronze" level, which would be most prudent.
ALTERNATIVES:
1 - Approve a sponsorship for the SCAG event.
2 - Opt to forego any such expenditure at this time.
3 - Give staff other direction.

SUBJECT: Holtville July 4th Celebration
DISCUSSION:
On July 4th of this year, the United States celebrates 250 years since its inception. As a patriotic community, it would seem altogether fitting an proper that the City of Holtville do something of significance to mark the occasion.
As luck would have it, 50 years ago a time capsule was commissioned in Holtville containing various artifacts and citizen reflections on that time, with the intent to have that capsule opened on that very day coinciding with the country's founding.
Staff has been discussing an event to mark the confluence of these occasions, with some previous interaction with the City Council. After a recent brainstorming organizational meeting along with representatives of the Chamber of Commerce, staff is looking to organize an evening BBQ/picnic in Holt Park, along with music and an unveiling ceremony for the time capsule. Many details are yet to come, but we are inviting the Council and public to assist in fleshing out the construct of the event.
FISCAL IMPACT:
It is to be determined what funding might be used, however, discussion with the CofC included a need to procure community sponsors for such an event.

DATE ISSUED: March 6, 2026
FROM: Nick Wells, City Manager
SUBJECT: City Manager Update
INFORMATION ONLY – NO ACTION REQUIRED AT THIS TIME
ADMINISTRATION
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, wherein iterative documents were discussed and revised. Pursuant to discussions between Council, 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 and the external motif design. Due to an increase in the size of the project over that which was called out in the RFP, the architect approached the City about augmented funding, which was approved by Council. More solid delineation of cost estimates for the phasing of the project were presented in August, 2024, and presented to Council for consideration.
A status update meeting with Mr. Medina, Chief Silva, and the CM was held via Zoom in late January, 2025, wherein Medina estimated submission of plans for first plan check to be middle to late February. Chief Silva continued to meet virtually with the architect and subconsultants on various issues over the spring months.
The full set of drawings were finally submitted to the plan check firm in late April. This process was expected to be iterative with the architect, with multiple redlines and resubmissions, with staff expecting the entire process to be less than 60 days. However, the architect was once again very slow to turn the documents back around to the plan checkers, subsequently saying that he was “waiting on” some information from the City to move forward. That was then sent to him. Chief Silva spoke with Mr. Medina in early November and although he continues to want to hold the project up for minor issue like landscaping and color schemes, he has resubmitted the process for a second plan review. Chief Silva checked in with Mr. Medina in early January and he admitted not much work had been done of late, but would be getting back on it. He has since sent a list of issues that need to be discussed. Staff will review and respond. It recently came to light that, although the plans were resubmitted for plan check, the submission was incomplete, so review has not begun.
Chief Silva recently checked in with Mr. Medina and drilled down on issues that need to be resolved.
He is hopeful for completing his work by the end of the month.
Multiple conversations regarding augmented funding have taken place with staff, Council, and various entities. In late April, 2025, the CM and Mayor Goodsell flew to Sacramento in association with a League of Cities event and had an opportunity to meet with our state legislators regarding directed funding for the project. We were also able to dovetail into ongoing conversations between ICSO and these representatives for funding their own Imperial County project. Budget funding will be tight, due to state shortfalls, but this work, along with assistance from CrisCom, put the City in a very favorable position to capture any potential windfalls. Chuck Jilloian, the President and CEO of CrisCom, addressed the Council at a June meeting, reiterating that our project stands a good chance of getting directed funding. The CM met with a CrisCom representative in August to get an update on the legislative process and discuss additional grant opportunities.
The CM compiled information from various sources and submitted an application for directed Congressional funding to Raul Ruiz’s office in early May. It was revealed to our group at the League of Cities Conference Meeting Date 03/09/26

that the City’s $2 million request to Congress made it out of committee and was still on track to be funded if/when a federal budget was passed. The City received word that the project was selected by the Congressman and recommended to the Congressional budget committee. Although we were notified in March that the Congressman’s projects were not funded, his office subsequently resubmitted in the next round of funding. City officials hosted both Congressman Ruiz and Assemblyman Jeff Gonzalez at the Veteran’s Day Parade in November, 2025. We took the opportunity to escort both to the site of the upcoming construction to provide a visualization of the building concept. Recently, the City received word that the $2 million Congressional allocation had been approved. Officially, President Trump signed the Continuing Resolution that funds the project in early February!
Staff continues to pursue additional funding sources. At the 2024 League of Cities Annual Conference, Councilmen Anderson and Goodsell joined the CM in multiple conversations with firms and organizations that show promise as potential funding sources. One salient proposal was received on which Council requested further research. The contact led to a two-year agreement in February, 2025, with the CrisCom Company to represent the City in pursuing funding. The CM is working with CrisCom on the upcoming budget “asks” for all of our elected representatives. A CrisCom rep was on hand for the Carrot Festival Parade in early February. The CM and a few Council members had a dinner meeting the night of the parade to further discuss ongoing work with CrisCom and potential additional funding.
Additionally, staff is working to submit an application to HCD for a CDBG Block Grant for additional funding for the project. Although these grants are very competitive, it is hoped that the utility of our project will reflect well on fundability.
Employee MOU Negotiations – the CM has been working with both the City Council and employee representatives to negotiate a framework for compensation and benefits for the City’s full-time employees.
Multiple items were proposed and accepted by both sides throughout the process. Classified employees accepted a final Council offer and an agreement was finalized. Action still must be taken with respect to Fire employees.
Events – Staff has begun planning for a large event in Holt Park to mark the 250th anniversary of the founding of our country. The event will include the much-anticipated opening of a time capsule placed in a tetrahedron near the southwest corner of City Hall in 1976. Everyone make plans to attend this one (maybe twice) in a lifetime event!
PUBLIC WORKS
TRANSPORTATION PROJECTS
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. A Task Order for The Holt Group to prepare Design plans was approved in September. Staff met with the City Engineer on some issues for this project in late October. THG met with adjacent property owners to discuss issues and preferences in early February. The CM discussed issues with the THG staffer prior to these meetings and will be circling back when they are complete for more design input. Design is now nearly complete. Some decisions regarding multiple trees that need to potentially be removed are being discussed. 2025 Call for Projects – this topic was brought to City Council in late April to approve two projects suggested by staff. Pursuant to conversations at the SCAG Conference, the CM requested that planning staff work up and submit two additional projects by the due date. The 4 projects (Cedar Avenue from Fourth to Fifth, as well as Melon Avenue from Eighth to Ninth, Seventh to Eighth, and Sixth to Seventh) were submitted. ICTC went through the scoring process and the Holtville projects all scored toward the middle of 3 City Council/CM Reports (03-09’26)
the pack, however, especially given the palatable funding levels, all were proposed to be funded. Word was received in late October that these recommendations were forwarded to the SCAG Transportation Committee. Having passed through that body, they were pushed on to the General Assembly for final determination and were approved for funding in early December. For the Melon Road projects, funding will require ownership, so the process has begun to annex all of that section of Melon Road from the County.
Capital Improvements Project Listing – a meeting was held in November, 2023, 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. Council has requested that this issue be moved up in the queue and this be addressed shortly. Staff reinitialized discussions and had some preliminary information on the late-April agenda. Discussion will continue on subsequent agendas. The folks from the Institute for Local Government have developed a training on goal setting relevant to this process and await a scheduled block with Council to present.
PARKS
Railroad Trestle Repair – A grant was secured from the California Natural Resources Agency (CNRA) 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. Kleinfelder, Inc., was selected for Design services in April, 2024. A meeting with the design team was held in early May wherein various facets of the project were discussed. Multiple ideas to control costs and stretch the project dollars were decided upon. The decision was made to proceed with the general direction of keeping the original character of the structure, while making concessions to keep costs under control.
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.
Pursuant to a periodic plan check, reprioritization of the elements to be completed vis a vis available funding was amended in May. Kleinfelder provided 90% plans in late September, which included construction estimates. THG reviewed the plans and sent them back to Kleinfelder for clarification and/or correction. The revised plans were resubmitted and further comments were sent back by THG. 95% plans were received on Monday, 2/10, with some minor adjustments still needed. Staff worked to procure the final environmental and cultural clearances so that the project can go to bid. A site visit with the design engineer, staff and The Holt Group was held in early January to iron out some issues. Bids were opened in February, with the low bid significantly over the amount of funding available for the project. Staff met with representatives of CNRA to discuss options. Requested additional funding is not available, so staff is working to truncate the project to fit within the available funds. This will require approval from CRNA, but they seemed receptive to most discussed options. Staff has been working on a reduction in scope submission to CRNA for approval.
Holtville East Trail Link - The City Manager had multiple discussions in recent years 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 has been well received by SCAG staff and the head of County Public Works. An application for Active Transportation funding was developed in mid-2024 and a grant application was submitted in June to fund design of the project.
Mellinger Alamo River Trail - A grant was awarded in early 2024 to River Partners, a non-profit that deals in habitat restoration, for a project that would include a Wetlands trail spur. RP met with the City Manager and toured the site, then engaged Nicklaus Engineering to design the project. Staff was contacted by NEI in March to discuss design elements. River Partners staff continued to meet with the CM throughout 4 City Council/CM Reports (03-09’26)
the Spring and early Summer, performing a few physical “scouting” trips to decide the best path for the trail extension. They have done some preliminary exploration and soil sampling and continue to move the project forward. A tentative map was forwarded to the City this week. The original template is aggressive (i.e. “Expensive”), so it is assumed that discussions and concessions will be forthcoming. River Partners presented a slightly revised plan to the Council in early October to get feedback on the direction of the project. Staff met virtually with River Partners in mid-December, with some minor adjustments to the plans discussed. A regrouping meeting was held in February – we are awaiting a few studies to proceed with the next steps in finalizing design and procuring funding. The City has been working with the Institute for Local Government on support for various projects, so they met with RP in early March to eventually assist with procuring construction grants when the time arises. A progress meeting this week revealed that a cultural resources report is being produced, after which project costing will continue and scoping can be discussed. A site visit was held in late October with River Partners and IID to discuss issues. The meeting mainly centered on foliage issues, but next steps were discussed and a side discussion with IID regarding upkeep of the Wetlands was fruitful. A pre-submittal meeting with the County was held recently to start working toward commencing the project.
SitelogiQ Energy Savings Project – this project was proposed to add mandated energy efficiency modifications to City facilities and has been examined for the past several months. In order to take advantage of expiring federal incentives, the project was somewhat fast tracked and approved by Council in October.
Financing was secured in late November/early December. A project kickoff meeting was held with SitelogiQ representatives and City staff in late December. Earlier this week, staff began meeting with the implementation team for what will become semi-weekly progress meeting. Finance staff is working through the process of making construction payments through the bond funding.
BUILDING DEPT - The City has issued 22 building permits thus far in 2026. A list of permits issued by month is available on the City’s website at https://www.holtville.ca.gov/building-planning/building-andplanning/building-department/ It should be noted that the City’s Building Inspector is currently out on a planned medical leave for several weeks. Although the rest of the staff is working to cover, there are some expected delays to service delivery occurring.
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 moving 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 the 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 denser 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 and again in July.
The CM has spoken with Mr. Hawk periodically in the past few months and he conveyed a desire to sell the project, which is now listed for sale, however, the most recent conversation he intimated that he is once again working with a builder to construct the project himself. Stay tuned. The CM spoke with Mr. Hawk again today at length about this and various other issues. He stated that he was planning to come in to meet regarding proposed footprints.
5 City Council/CM Reports (03-09’26)
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.
Start was delayed as construction bids came in significantly over projections. The developer had made a drawdown on funding, however, the ownership group was somewhat unresponsive as the project sat in limbo for some time. An extension on their CUP was requested and was granted by Planning Commission in May, 2024, then a pre-construction meeting with the developer and City was finally held in January. Construction is now substantially complete and the City has issued a Certificate of Occupancy.
The owners of the project approached staff with a request for the City to join the California Municipal Finance Authority (CMFA), which would open up the opportunity for them to secure additional financing for the project. Staff examined the options and there does not seem to be much in the way of a negative impact to the City, so action was taken to allow for establishing membership. Several issues arose regarding this financing. The City Planner, City Attorney and the CM worked to clarify issues and get to a place of comfort for the City’s role in the process. A watered-down version was accepted to address the City’s concern, so some issues will be revisited in coming months.
AMG Pine Crossing Apartments (± 64) – This is a proposed mirror image project across from Fern Crossing complex. Building plans were approved in early October, 2024, and site work began shortly thereafter. Several issues with the underground work (primarily sewer and stormwater) were addressed in the Spring of 2025. Visually, the project is taking shape and they continue to work through staff on issues.
A recent issue with the design of their sewer conveyance to the City system arose. They worked with the City Engineer to rectify an elevation miscalculation from their design staff and rectified the issue in the last few weeks by taking a longer run to a different manhole for connection. They are currently working to be ready for opening in July or August.
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 a subsequent City Council meeting and the project was approved. The contractor met with staff in July to inform the City of upcoming submission and to discuss the potential timeline for approval to move forward with building permits. Plans have been submitted for review and the site is currently being cleared. The first plan check produced several points that Duggins worked to correct. Early this week, they resubmitted for second plan check. Issues arose that required staff work, but have been resolved.
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.
