Agenda Item #H1
DATE: DECEMBER 5, 2023
TO: THE HONORABLE MAYOR AND MEMBERS OF THE CITY COUNCIL FROM: ANDREW PINASCO, CITY ATTORNEY
SUBJECT: PROPOSITION 218 FOR REFUSE COLLECTION
RECOMMENDATION:

1. Conduct a public hearing to hear comments regarding the proposed rate increase for solid waste services.

2. Adopt Resolution 22-23-* Approving solid-waste rate adjustments pursuant to proposition 218.

BACKGROUND:

Effective September 3, 2019, the City entered into an amended franchise agreement for solid waste services. The original agreement was approved in April 2015 which provided for an exclusive agreement to pick up solid waste in the City of Ione. Solid waste charges are considered property related charges and thus fall under Proposition 218 requirements.

DISCUSSION:

Proposition 218, the “Right to Vote on Taxes Act,” was approved by California voters in November 1996. The initiative generally requires that all special assessments and “property related fees” be approved by local voters. However, whether the initiative applies to solid-waste fees collected by private franchisees, rather than public agencies, is the subject of debate.

Under Proposition 218, solid waste charges are considered “property related fees” and are thus subject to the procedure set forth in California Constitution Article XIIID, Section 6(a). This section provides that proposals concerning solid waste collection must be considered in a public hearing, known as a “majority protest hearing,” at which ratepayers may register their opposition to the proposed rate increase. Prior to this hearing, Proposition 218 requires that notice be mailed to all property owners and/or ratepayers at least 45 days in advance. If, following the hearing, a majority of the owners or ratepayers submit written protests to the proposed fee (i.e., there is a “majority protest”), the fee may not be approved. If there is no majority protest, approval of the fee is authorized.

Regarding the proposed rate adjustment, the City has complied with its obligation to mail notice of the December 5, 2023 protest hearing to all ACES ratepayers. Following a provision in the Proposition 218 implementation legislation, the City has mailed notice of the hearing to all ACES ratepayers. (Gov. Code, § 53755(a).

At the December 5th meeting, the Council should hold a public hearing to:

1. Consider whether a majority protest exists as to the above rate increases per Proposition 218. The City has sent hearing notices to the ratepayers for 1013 parcels within City limits. A majority protest would thus exist if 507 ratepayers submit written protests to the proposed rate increase. Only one written protest may be filed per parcel. (Gov. Code, § 53755(b).) If a majority protest is successful, the Council may not approve the proposed rate adjustments.

Conversely, if no majority protest exists, the adjustments may be approved.

2. If no majority protest exists, consider whether to approve the requested rate increases. A proposed resolution is provided to the Council should it wish to authorize the rate adjustments.

As for how to conduct the hearing concerning the ACES rate adjustments, the City attorney recommends the Council proceed as follows:

1. Call this item when it arises on the agenda. Note that the mailed and published notice indicate this will be a timed item that starts no earlier than 6:00 p.m.

2. Staff will make its presentation and the Council may ask Staff questions.

3. Open the public hearing and allow comment by all interested parties. A motion should be made to formally close the public hearing. Under Proposition 218, no protests may be counted once the public hearing has closed.

4. Following the conclusion of the public hearing, count all written protests received prior to the meeting or prior to close of the hearing. If the number of written objections to any fee increase does not exceed 507, find that a majority protest does not exist as to that increase. (In the event the 507 threshold is not reached, the City Attorney recommends that the Council deem all protests to be validly submitted rather than take the time necessary to verify that each protest meets Proposition 218 requirements.)

5. If more than 507 written protests are received as to the proposed adjustments, have the City Clerk verify each protest to ensure it is submitted by the ratepayer of record, contains the information required by Proposition 218, and that no more than one protest has been submitted per property. If following this verification process, there still are more than 507 written protests, the Council must find that a majority protest exists.

6. If no majority protest exists, the Council should consider the accompanying resolution approving the proposed rate adjustments.

RESOLUTION 2023-*

A RESOLUTION OF THE CITY COUNCIL OF

THE CITY OF IONE APPROVING SOLID-WASTE RATE ADJUSMENTS PURSUANT TO PROPOSITION 218
WHEREAS, the City of Ione (“City”) has a Franchise Agreement (“Agreement”) with ACES Waste Services, Inc. (“ACES”) for collection of solid waste and recyclable materials; WHEREAS, the Agreement provides for a schedule of rates to be charged to customers of ACES, the existing rates for calendar year 2024 of which are set forth in the “Current Monthly Rate” column of Exhibit A, which is attached and incorporated into this Resolution by reference; WHEREAS, the Agreement authorizes the City to approve rate increases in accordance with its terms and conditions;
WHEREAS, the City Council has received and reviewed the request from ACES regarding rate adjustments for the next calendar year in accordance with refuse rate index, or “RRI”; WHEREAS, pursuant to Proposition 218, the City has duly noticed and held a “majority protest hearing” on December 5, 2023 regarding its intent to approve the requested rate increase; WHEREAS, pursuant to Article XIII, § 6(a), the City has identified 1013 parcels as being subject to the proposed fee increases described and has given mailed notice to such parcels pursuant to Government Code section 53755(a);
WHEREAS, as verified by the counting of protests following the December 5, 2023 hearing in which this matter was considered, a majority protest was not made prior to the close of the public hearing in opposition to the proposed rate increases stated in Exhibit A; and WHEREAS, the California Environmental Quality Act is not applicable to the proposed rate increase because the increase is not a “project,” as defined by California Code of Regulations, Title 14, section 15378(a), and because of the exceptions set forth in California Code of Regulations, Title 14, section 15378(b)(3) and (4) for proposals submitted to voters and fiscal decisions.

NOW, THEREFORE, IT IS HEREBY RESOLVED that effective January 1, 2024, ACES may begin charging customers the rates set forth in the “New Rate” column of Exhibit A as stated therein;
The foregoing resolution was duly passed and adopted at a regular meeting of the City Council of the City of Sutter Creek on the 5th day of December 2023, by the following vote:

Agenda Item #I1
DATE: DECEMBER 5, 2023
TO: THE HONORABLE MAYOR AND MEMBERS OF THE CITY COUNCIL FROM: JODI STENECK, FINANCE MANAGER
SUBJECT: APPROVAL OF RESTORING THE GRANT ADMINISTRATOR
POSITION TO THE 2023-24 SALARY SCHEDULE, HIRING A GRANT

ADMINISTRATOR AND APPROVAL OF A BUDGET AMENDMENT
FOR THE POSITIONS.

RECOMMENDED ACTION:
1) Adopt Resolution 2023-* A Resolution of the City Council of the City of Ione Authorizing a revision to the FY 2023-24 Salary Schedule for a Grant Administrator; and 2) Resolution 2023-* A Resolution of the City Council of the City of Ione Authorizing Budget Amendment 3 to the Fiscal Year 2023-24 Operating Budget.

FISCAL IMPACT:

Adopting the Resolutions to hire a part-time Grant Administrator (0.8 FTE) would require a budget amendment of $42,066.00. The budget amendment would utilize the current Community Development Block Grants (CDBG) HOME programs funds as the programs allows for administrative expenses.

BACKGROUND:

The City of Ione has seven (7) CDBG HOME Grants that were established between 1997 and 2013 that have funds available for use, see Figure 1 below. There are multiple purposes for these funds including first time home buyer programs, housing rehabilitation, as well as infrastructure improvements, totaling nearly $1,000,000 in cash reserves. The City initially received this funding from the state for the purposes mentioned above. As loans are paid off, that revenue comes back to the City, called program income, and goes back into the funds in which they originated to be continually used. Based on current staffing levels, to distribute these funds, however, requires staffing or a consultant. Staff believes that the most judicious way to get these program funds back into the community would be to hire a part time Grant Administrator position.

Figure 1. Community Development Block Grants (CDBG) HOME Programs with Fund Balances as of June 30, 2023.
7112-00-1000 Rehab Housing Trust Grant $ 53,196.50
7113-00-1000 Low Income Housing Grant $ 85,125.00
7116-00-1000 First Time Homebuyers Grant $ 149,426.00
7117-00-1000 HOME 2370 Grant $ 245,829.00
7118-00-1000 STBG 1381 Grant $ 63,598.00
7119-00-1000 HOME 4711 Grant $ 432,164.89
7121-00-1000 Self Help Housing Grant $ 157,191.08
TOTAL $1,186,530.47
DISCUSSION:

A Grant Administrator would be responsible for administering the current programs, establishing recommendations to the City Council regarding proper use of funds and apply for additional grant funding that is available that would augment these programs. A job description is attached, as Attachment A. The Grant Administrator would need to research each program to determine if any outstanding consumer loans are due, determine if reports need to be filed with CDBG, research how balance of funds are allowed to be used for each Grant, and determine the needs of our community regarding funds available.

The City of Ione’s Fire Marshall has successfully applied for and managed the FEMA SAFER grant that was utilized by the Fire Department. The Fire Department has applied for 15 grants and has been awarded 14 of the 15 grants. This is due primarily that current and past Fire Department grants have been managed well and with accurate and timely processing of grant reports it has enabled the City of Ione to request additional grants. The Fire Marshall position is a stipend position; however, it would be staff’s intent to create the Grant Administrator position and use the administrative skills of the Fire Marshall for this role on a part time basis.

A part-time Grant Administrator will have the in-house resources to research each of the City of Ione’s CDBG HOME programs and determine how the funds can best be utilized for potential and current homeowners. A Grant Administrator would work with the City Council, City Staff and the community to determine what specific needs are needed in Ione.

The advantage of hiring a Grant Administrator as opposed to hiring a grant consultant is that a Grant Administrator would be able to access our physical files, folders, binders and contracts as well as access to the appropriate files on the server. Using a grant consultant requires existing staff to go through the information and determine what information is needed, then provide it to the consultant, basically double counting with time. The number of files that the City of Ione has created for the CDBG HOME programs is extensive. There are eight banker boxes plus eighteen binders and fifteen file folders.

The City of Ione has contracted with a grant consultant in the past and they did not administer any of the City’s current grants. Their focus was finding new grants. That contract paid the consultant $3,000 per month for two years and did not include administration of any grants they procured for the City.

Agenda Item #I2
DATE: DECEMBER 5, 2023
TO: THE HONORABLE MAYOR AND MEMBERS OF THE CITY COUNCIL FROM: KEN A. MACKEY (INTERIM) DEPARTMENT OF PUBLIC WORKS SUBJECT: REPLACEMENT GROOMING TRACTOR FOR THE ED HUGHES ARENA
________________________________________________________________________ RECOMMENDED ACTION:

Adopt Resolution 2023-* A Resolution of the City Council of the City of Ione authorizing Budget Amendment 4 to the Fiscal Year 2023-2024 operating budget for the purchase of a tractor for Ed Hughes Arena.

FISCAL IMPACT:

Public Works, Parks Department, replacement item, of a high priority need request for budget adjustment of $56,999 from the General Fund.

BACKGROUND:

Several months ago, the tractor at the Ed Hughes horse arena located at Howard Park stopped working due to engine mechanical failure, leaving the city with the inability to properly groom the arena for events and rentals, as well as unsafe for the animals who use the facility.

Staff asked two different repair specialists for assistance, and both noted that repair of the current tractor will be very costly, with parts difficult to locate.

The current tractor is a 40HP; however, after researching and discussing options with other local Equestrian center maintenance and arena groomers, based on the size of the arena and the grooming device, it was advised that we should have a minimum of a 60 HP but recommended a 80 to 100 HP without attachments, other than rear hook ups to assure that this tractor would be limited to, and assigned to the house arena only, to assure the tractor will only be used for the arena.

Staff reached out to get estimates for the John Deere and Kubota tractors and is recommending a used 2016 John Deere with 2,709 hours for $56,999. While the cost appears to be high and this is an unbudgeted item, without a tractor, the arena cannot be used.

If there is a need for other tractor functions arise we can use the two other tractors within the public works’ inventory.
