Meeting Date: March 25, 2024
Subject: Approval of Waiving the Fees Pertaining to the Use of Rolland Starn Park (Keith Crabtree Field) for Hughson Youth Baseball and Softball for the 2024 Regular Season
Presented By: Ashton Gose, Executive Assistant/City Clerk Staff Recommendations:
1. Waive the fees pertaining to the use of Rolland Starn Park/Keith Crabtree Field for Hughson Youth Baseball/Softball for the 2024 regular season.
2. Find that the waiver of the fees pertaining to the use of Rolland Starn Park/Keith Crabtree Field for Hughson Youth Baseball/Softball for the 2024 regular season is in the public interest.
Discussion:
Starting in 2014, Hughson Youth Baseball and Softball (HYBS) inquired about the use of Keith Crabtree Field to allow HYBS to better accommodate the number of games planned for the season. HYBS also anticipated using the lights at Keith Crabtree Fields a few times during the season to showcase games at night—a unique experience for local youth.
HYBS requested a waiver for their inaugural use of Keith Crabtree Fields in exchange for improvements to the baseball diamond. The City Council approved the waiver in 2014 and has continued to do so each year based on the public interest served and the fact that the planned improvements exceeded what would be generated in usage fees.
Staff met with HYBS representatives this month to discuss the arrangement details for the 2024 season. This season, HYBS would like to waive fees at Starn Park, in exchange for improvements to the diamonds at Lebright Fields and Starn Park. The improvements to the park are scheduled to be completed on March 16, 2024, and the opening day ceremonies for the 2024 season are scheduled for March 30, 2024.
The list of improvements is below:
Starn Park
CITY COUNCIL AGENDA ITEM NO. 3.5
SECTION 3: CONSENT CALENDAR
Replace dirt as needed for the infield;
Replace wood as needed in the dugouts;
Adjust base pegs
Lebright Fields
Reset base pegs in multiple fields;
Lay concrete next to batting cages (for toolbox container); Infield leveling (sand/clay mix);
T-ball field improvements
Keith Crabtree Field at Starn Park, and Lebright Fields are maintained by the city. The partnership with HYBS will result in added improvements to the baseball diamonds above and beyond what is typically done with existing City resources. Additionally, the completed improvements will be enjoyed by not only HYBS but other park users throughout the year.
The improved condition of the baseball diamonds should help generate additional revenue through expanded use of the park and encourage long standing users to continue to use the fields. The estimated cost of the improvements more than covers the cost of the rental fee for the park. As such, it is in the public’s interest to waive the park rental fees in exchange for the completed improvements provided by HYBS.
Parks, Recreation and Entertainment Commission:
At the March 12, 2024, regular meeting, the Commission unanimously voted to approve the recommendation that the City Council waive the fees pertaining to the use of Rolland Starn Park/Keith Crabtree Field for Hughson Youth Baseball/Softball for the 2024 regular season.
Fiscal Impact:
The revenue that would be generated through the use of Keith Crabtree Field by HYBS for the season is approximately $3,120, not including usage for lights. This year, the proposed improvements and labor are estimated at $4000, and exceed the revenue the city would have received without the fee waiver.
Meeting Date: March 25, 2024
Subject: AppointingOne Candidate to the Parks, Recreation and Entertainment Commission
Enclosure: Commission Application: Patty King
Presented By: Ashton Gose, City Clerk
Staff Recommendation:
Appoint Patty King to the Parks, Recreation and Entertainment Commission.
Discussion:
The Hughson Parks, Recreation and Entertainment Commission provides recommendations to the City Council regarding policies for the acquisition, development, maintenance, and improvement of park facilities. The Commission is also responsible for formulating and recommending appropriate fee schedules, policies, rules and regulations for park sites and other recreation facilities.
The Hughson Parks, Recreation and Entertainment Commission has had two vacancies that have been advertised as “until filled” in the local paper, social media, and the City website/newsletter since December 2023. Staff received one (1) application on March 13, 2024, and conferred with Mayor George Carr regarding the recommendation to appoint an applicant to the Commission. Mayor Carr agreed with the recommendation and asked staff to present the item to the City Council.
At this time, the City Council has the opportunity to interview the applicant (to do so, the item would need to be pulled from the Consent Calendar by a member of the City Council), discuss the application, and ultimately appoint the applicant with a majority vote.
Fiscal Impact:
Per the Hughson Municipal Code, Parks, Recreation and Entertainment Commissioners are not compensated.

City of Hughson General Plan
CITY OF HUGHSON
2023 Annual General Plan Progress Report | March 12, 2024 2
GENERAL PLAN
Hughson’s General Plan was adopted on December 12, 2005. The General Plan contains the seven State-required elements: Land Use, Circulation, Housing, Conservation, Open Space, Noise, and Safety. The latest Housing Element was adopted by the Hughson City Council on December 14, 2015. The State allows the combining of elements or the addition of new elements if the required seven elements are present in some fashion. Hughson’s General Plan combines the required Conservation and Open Space elements and adds a Public Services and Facilities element. The Hughson General Plan thus contains the following elements:
- Land Use
- Circulation
- Conservation and Open Space
- Public Services and Facilities
- Safety
- Noise
- Housing
Local governments are required to keep their General Plans current and internally consistent. There is no specific requirement that a local government update its General Plan on a specific timeline, with the exception of the Housing Element, which is required to be updated every eight (8) years. The City will update its Housing Element by the year 2023. The City is anticipating beginning the General Plan update process during the 2020- 2021 fiscal year which will include an update to the City’s Housing element. The current General Plan covers the years 2005-2025. The new General Plan will focus on the years 2025-2045.
The following represents the progress the City has made toward implementing the goals and guiding policies of the General Plan during this reporting period. The list is organized to correspond with the elements of the Hughson General Plan.

LAND USE
Amendments
No Amendments were made to the General Plan during 2023.
Land Use Progress
A. A General Plan Amendment, Rezoning Application, and Tentative Map was approved in July 2018 to allow the construction of a 20-unit apartment complex.
Building plans were submitted in late 2018 but were put on pause by the developer.
The developer reinitiated the building permits and the project was completed in late 2023.
B. On March 13, 2006, the Hughson City Council adopted Resolution No. 06-35 approving with conditions Vesting Tentative Subdivision Map No. 06-02 for 51 residential lots and one common area lot as submitted by Fitzpatrick Homes for a proposed subdivision known as Euclid North, located within the southwest corner of Euclid Avenue and East Hatch Road. Construction of the homes commenced in 2021 and the homes were completed in 2023
C.

Meeting Date: March 25, 2024
Subject: Adopt Resolution No. 2024-09, Accepting the Well 7 Replacement Project Phase IV Improvements and Authorizing the City Clerk to File a Notice of Completion
Enclosure: Notice of Completion
Presented By: Carla C. Jauregui, Community Development Director Staff Recommendation:
Adopt Resolution No. 2024-09, accepting the Well 7 Replacement Project Phase IV Improvements and authorizing the City Clerk to file a Notice of Completion (NOC).
Background:
On November 9, 2020, the Hughson City Council awarded a contract for the Well 7 Replacement Project Phase IV Improvements to low bidder Gateway Pacific Construction for $7,895,716. The City Council authorized a 10% construction contingency and a 10% setaside for construction management. Funding for this project was provided by the State of California Water Resources Control Board, Division of Financial Assistance.
The purpose of the Well 7 Replacement Project (Project) was to address concerns with the community’s drinking water. The source of water for the City’s water supply system is local groundwater, and arsenic is commonly present at concentrations that exceed state and federal regulatory limits. The Project included construction of two (2) new wells, a 1.0- million-gallon water storage tank, and a water treatment system to remove arsenic. The wells and storage tank were constructed under separate contracts (Phase I, II, and III). The Phase IV Improvement contract included the final improvements associated with the Project.
The City was issued an operating permit for the Project by the State Waterboard in July 2023, after several weeks of testing and adjusting the treatment system to achieve required arsenic removal. In October, the facility was operated successfully for a continuous 7 day/24-hour period. However, following the continuous test, the facility was not placed into service due to remaining programming and telemetry work required by the City’s contract system integrator. As a result, the facility remained off-line until early February, requiring a complete restart effort.
CITY COUNCIL AGENDA ITEM NO. 4.1
SECTION 4: UNFINISHED BUISNESS
Staff brought this item to the Council for consideration at the regularly scheduled meeting on February 26, 2024. The council requested that staff bring this item back for consideration following further progress restarting the facility. Since then, operations staff have repaired the broken valve that was preventing the system from operating, reconditioned the filters, and conducted several days of water quality testing to ensure the facility is producing water that meets state and federal drinking water requirements. . The Project work is complete, the facility is operational, and available to deliver water to the system. However, problems with the City’s SCADA system prevent full automation of the facility.
The Project will enter a 1-year warranty period, whereby the Contractor will be required to repair, replace, modify, and/or adjust equipment and programming should issues with Project work be identified.
Discussion:
The Project’s Phase IV improvements included installation of the water treatment system, control building, automated control systems, chemical storage, filter backwash system, booster and well pumps, site improvements, emergency power systems, on and off-site piping, and demolition of Well 5.
An operating permit was issued to the City of Hughson by the State Waterboard to allow use as a drinking water source for the service area, and a permit was issued by the San Joaquin Valley Air Pollution Control District to operate the facility’s emergency power system.
A Notice to Proceed was issued on December 8, 2020, and the project was substantially completed on December 5, 2023. Delays in completion of Project construction were primarily due to supply chain shortages of equipment associated with the control systems manufactured abroad.
If approved by the Hughson City Council, the City Clerk will file a Notice of Completion with the Stanislaus County Clerk-Recorder.
Fiscal Impact:
The Phase IV improvements construction cost was $7,999,396, representing a contract increase of approximately 1.3% due to changes in work during construction. For all phases of the Project, the total cost increase was 1.7% over bid prices. In totality, the entire project, including all phases, came under budget even through the pandemic and its delays.

Meeting Date: March 25, 2024
Subject: Adopt Ordinance No. 2024-01, an Urgency Ordinance of The City of Hughson Imposing a Moratorium on All New Smoking Lounges and Smoke Shops Within the City of Hughson.
Presented By: Tom Terpstra, Deputy City Attorney
Staff Recommendation:
Adopt Ordinance No. 2024-01, an Urgency Ordinance of The City of Hughson Imposing a Moratorium on All New Smoking Lounges and Smoke Shops Within the City of Hughson.
Discussion:
Over the past few months, there has been growing concern in the community regarding smoke shops and other retailers of tobacco products in the City of Hughson. These establishments primarily sell tobacco products, vaping devices, and related paraphernalia.
The presence of such businesses raises concerns regarding public health, safety, and community welfare, particularly regarding minors.
An increased proliferation of smoke shops within the City can contribute to various negative impacts, including:
1. Public Health Degradation: The availability of tobacco and vaping products can exacerbate public health issues such as smoking-related illnesses and substance abuse among youth and adults alike.
2. Youth Exposure: The proximity of these establishments to schools and recreational areas increases the risk of youth exposure to tobacco and vaping products, potentially leading to addiction and harmful health consequences.
3. Negative Economic Effects: Concentration of smoke shops may deter other types of businesses from establishing in the area, impacting the economic diversity and vitality of the community.
Pursuant to the City’s police powers under the California Constitution and Government Code Section 65858, the City has the authority to adopt an urgency ordinance prohibiting a use that may be in conflict with contemplated general plan, specific plan, or zoning proposal that the City is considering or studying.
CITY COUNCIL AGENDA ITEM NO 6.1
SECTION 6: NEW BUSINESS
Unlike the regular ordinance adoption process, which requires a first and a second reading and goes into effect 30 days after approval by the City Council, an urgency ordinance can go into effect immediately upon adoption by the City Council. However, urgency ordinances automatically expire after 45 days, unless extended by the City Council in accordance with Government Code Section 65858. Urgency ordinances, and any subsequent extensions thereof, must be adopted by no less than a four-fifths (4/5) vote of the Council.
This temporary Urgency Ordinance would give the City staff an opportunity to conduct the research and, if necessary, engage with stakeholders in order to gather data and insights to inform evidence-based policy decisions regarding future regulations and ordinances to governing smoke shops in the future.
To be clear, this temporary moratorium would only impact the processing of permits for new smoke shops and smoking lounges. Existing businesses within the City that meet the definition of a “smoke shop” or “smoking lounge” set forth in this Urgency Ordinance will not be impacted by this Ordinance and would be allowed to continue to operate as they are currently permitted.
Conclusion:
In light of the growing concerns in the community surrounding the proliferation of smoke shops and smoking lounges and their potential negative impacts on public health, youth, and community well-being, the adoption of an Urgency Ordinance imposing a moratorium is warranted. This temporary measure will allow the City of Hughson to assess the situation comprehensively, engage stakeholders, and develop appropriate regulations to safeguard the health and welfare of its residents. Therefore, staff recommends the City Council's approval of this Urgency Ordinance.
Fiscal Impact:
There is no fiscal impact associated with this item.
