FROM: GEORGE LEE, CITY MANAGER
SUBJECT: CITY OF IONE COMMUNITY FACILITIES DISTRICT NO. 2005-2

ANNUAL ACCOUNTABILITY REPORTS FOR THE PERIOD
ENDING OCTOBER 31, 2024

STAFF RECOMMENDATION
It is recommended that City Council, acting in its capacity as the legislative body of City of Ione Community Facilities District No. 2005-2 ("CFD No. 2005-2"), receive and file the attached Annual Accountability Reports as required by Government Code Section 50075.3 for the period ending October 31, 2024.

BACKGROUND AND OVERVIEW
The City of lone, pursuant to the provisions of the Local Agency Special Tax and Bond Accountability Act (the "Accountability Act"), is required to file Annual Accountability Reports (defined below) with City Council for each improvement area of Community Facilities District No. 2005-2 on an annual basis. The attached Annual Accountability Reports provide the information required by Government Code Section 50075 et seq. for the period ending October 31, 2024.

The Accountability Act adopted by the voters in 2001 and codified in Government Code Section 50075 et seq. requires any local special tax and/or bond measure subject to voter approval on or after January 1, 2001 that would provide for the imposition of a special tax by a local agency shall require the chief fiscal officer of the levying local agency to file an annual Special Tax and Bond Accountability Report ("Annual Accountability Report") with its governing body meeting the requirements of the Accountability Act. As directed by Senate Bill ("SB") 165, the Annual Accountability Reports shall contain both of the following (i) the amount of funds collected and expended, and (ii) the initial allocation of bond proceeds and the expenditure of bonds proceeds to fund authorized projects of CFD No. 2005-2.

Attached for your information are the applicable City of lone Community Facilities District No. 2005-2 Annual Accountability Reports for the reporting period of November 1, 2023 through October 31, 2024. These reports provide the amount of funds collected and expended as well as the status of the projects authorized within the bond programs.

The total beginning balance within the accounts held by U.S. Bank on November 1, 2023 was $449,632 (collectively for all funds and accounts held by Improvement Area Nos. 1 & 3 of CFD No. 2005-2), and the total ending balance as of October 31, 2024 was $529,067 (collectively for all funds and accounts held by Improvement Area Nos. 1 & 3 of CFD No. 2005-2). The Improvement Area No. 2 of CFD No. 2005-2 Special Tax Refunding Bonds were redeemed in full on September 1, 2017, and accordingly, all funds and accounts held for this district have been closed. The CFD No. 2005-2 bonds were issued to pay, repay or defease the outstanding bonds supported by special taxes levied on taxable property for City of lone Community Facilities District No. 1989-1 (Country Club Estates) and City of Ione Community Facilities District No. 1989-2 (Country Club Estates - 2) which were in default. These reports, commonly submitted as informational packets by other taxing jurisdictions, are included on the consent calendar as a courtesy to keep City Council involved in these matters. These reports were provided by DTA, Inc., the special tax consultant and administrator for these districts.

All costs related to CFD No. 2005-2 are costs of these districts, not the City of lone or its General Fund. As a result, all costs related to administering these districts and paying debt service on the bonds are the responsibility of the property owners within these districts. The bonded indebtedness of CFD No. 2005-2 is both secured and repaid through the annual levy and collection of special taxes from all property subject to the special tax within these districts.

Aside from the Annual Accountability Reports, there are various other annual reporting requirements related to CFD No. 2005-2 as outlined below:
• City Council approval of the "Annual Levy of Special Tax" resolution authorizing the levy of special taxes within CFD No. 2005-2. Approval is due each year prior to the County of Amador's August 10"h deadline for the inclusion of such special taxes on the consolidated property tax bills pursuant to Government Code Section 43340 of the Mello-Roos Community Facilities Act of 1982 (the "Act"). The fiscal year 2024-2025 annual levy of special taxes for CFD No. 2005-2 was approved by City Council on August 6, 2024. The CFD No. 2005-1 Special Tax Refunding Bonds had a final maturity of September 1, 2016, and accordingly, there was no levy of special taxes within CFD No. 2005-1 for fiscal year 2024-2025. • As stated in SB 1464, any Community Facilities Districts issuing debt on or after January 1, 1993, must report certain fiscal information to the California Debt and Investment Advisory Commission ("CDIAC") on an annual basis by October 30th of each year (2 page form report of fund balance, assessed value of all parcels in the CFD subject to the special tax, tax collections, delinquent reporting, foreclosure actions for fiscal year, and issue matured or refunded information called the Yearly Fiscal Status Report). DTA, Inc. (acting on behalf of the City of lone) prepared and filed the first set of applicable Yearly Fiscal Status Reports for CFD Nos. 2 2005-1 & 2005-2 on October 29, 2007, and subsequent required reports have been provided to CDIAC on or prior to each October 30th thereafter. • The City of lone, pursuant to the provisions of the Continuing Disclosure Certificates (the "Disclosure Certificates") dated as of August 1, 2006 for CFD No. 2005-1, and dated as of December 1, 2007 for Improvement Area No. 1 of CFD No. 2005-2, is required to provide Annual Reports for CFD No. 2005-1 and Improvement Area No. 1 of CFD No. 2005-2 not later than April 1s of each year in compliance with Section 53359.5 of the Government Code as stated in SB 1464, the 1992 Mello-Roos Amendment Bill. DTA, Inc. prepared these Annual Reports and copies of these Annual Reports were forwarded to U.S. Bank as trustee prior to each applicable April 1. These Annual Reports have also been provided to each National Repository and each State Repository determined pursuant Section 3(a) of the applicable Disclosure Certificate.
• The first Annual Report for CFD No. 2005-1 was provided prior to April 1. 2007, and subsequent Annual Reports were provided prior to each April 1S thereafter during the time which the bonds issued by this district were outstanding.
• The first Annual Report for Improvement Area No. 1 of CFD No. 2005-2 was provided prior to April 1, 2008, and subsequent Annual Reports have been provided prior to each April 1 thereafter.
• The Improvement Area No. 2 of CFD No. 2005-2 Special Tax Refunding Bonds, which were privately placed, were redeemed in full on September 1, 2017, and accordingly, there are no continuing disclosure reporting requirements for this district.
• The bonds for Improvement Area No. 3 of CFD No. 2005-2 are currently privately placed and continuing disclosure certificates have not been executed for this improvement area, therefore an Annual Report is not required for this improvement area at this time. Similar annual continuing disclosure reporting requirements would apply to Improvement Area No. 3 of CFD No. 2005-2 only if the bonds secured by the special taxes with such improvement area are sold to the public.

City Council has authorized the formation of CFD No. 2005-2, the bonded indebtedness for this district, the levy of a special tax within the boundaries of CFD No. 2005-2, and the If you have any questions or need additional information regarding the Annual Accountaiy Reportal for ED No. 205-2, a (949 95-50me or Shayne Morgan, the Attachments

C. PUBLIC COMMENT:

Julie, Wildflower resident made the following comments:
• I see political signs for Rhoades and Mitchell. If either is re-elected, I hope they can act in a professional manner and work with the Mayor and other colleagues.
• City Manager Lee, I found your response to the Mayor interesting. The Mayor and Vice Mayor know they need to be in compliance when asking for Contracts and not Task Orders.
• I am glad that the Closed Session is happening last. To have the public wait around when Closed Session is at the beginning of the meeting is not considerate to us.
• I would like to see productive outcomes for all topics and issues concerning its citizens.
• The Council is supposed to be a voice for all its citizens and the needs of the community not for loyal friends or kickbacks. Let's work together to make this a great town.
• Would like to see the following for Howard Park:
- Like to see all the dead trees removed
- Like to see smooth surfaces for all the picnic tables - Like to see the dog poop station moved next to the track • Tommy Quinn - would like to see Police presence at all Council meetings because of the incident that happened at the August 6, 2024 Dominic Atlan.

Public Comment:

Larry Rhoades-would like to know the cost before you vote on property.

Andy Aguilera, I would hope that you let the public know what is going on at the Golf Course, if it is going to close.

Patrice Prest, if the Golf Course closes, it would be catastrophic for the residents who live around the golf course. It would be helpful if we were somewhere in the loop.

Mayor LaFayne - we all understand how frustrated everyone is—we cannot discuss the negotiations at this time. We are doing as much as we can and we want to stay on top of this. We are having a Special Meeting because we do see the urgency in this.

Susan Priest - I would like to know if the City has a contingency plan.

Nadine Bush - The residents would appreciate any information and clarity.

Council convened to Closed Session at this time to discuss the following:

• Total assessed values in Amador County for 2024-2025 Tax Year was 3.57% • Total assessed values for lone for 2024-2025 Tax Year was 5.97% John Alfred, Police Chief presented John "Johnny" Stewart with a Certificate of Appreciation for his service to the lone Police Department and citizens of lone on July 25, 2024 for his assistance on a police call.

F. PUBLIC COMMENT:

Stephanie Anderson commented that Alison LaFayne had a lease with the City lone to run the Arena at Howard Park. In reviewing the lease, I found that the Alison LaFayne owes the City $33,998.92. It concerns me because we are a small town and was wondering if anyone is working with her to pay the bill.

Larry Rhoades, awhile back you talked about contractors and liability for the City.

Every contractor has to have a bond. If it is the person I think you are talking about, this person dumped gravel in 1984 and 1997 to help raise the levee—he did it on his own; and now the City wants to condemn this person.

Mayor LaFayne reported that the City received correspondence from Weber, Ghio & Associates today and they submitted their final bill. It was moved by Vice Mayor Wratten, seconded by Councilmember Rhoades and carried to pay the Warrants and to add to the Warrants the outstanding invoices received today from Weber, Ghio & Associates.

AYES: LaFayne, Wratten, Mitchell, Rhoades
NOES: None
ABSENT: Atlan
ABSTAIN: None

1. Presentation by Jake Herfel on Rotary Club Parking Project at Howard Park - The Parking Project will be a three-way project-Rotary Club ($20,000), Lone Business and Community Association ($20,000) and Axios Homes. The project will be done mainly by volunteers; and we do not know the exact cost of the project. Rough draft of the project was presented by Jake Herfel. • This project will create parking for ninety plus cars. • Vehicles will enter through the horse arena entrance and exit through the arena and the main Howard Park entrance.
• We will install 2-36 inch 40 feet long culverts to match the ones in the park and ones crossing Highway 124.
• The parking will parallel Highway 124 with a setback of 20 feet from the City fence.
• The new parking lot will be 80 feet wide and about 450 feet long. • We will need to remove some small trees and a large one, but final plan approved by the City may change.
• May need to bring in some fill dirt, and the entire lot will be covered by 3 ½ to 4 inches of road base.

Mr. Tom Borge, Axios Homes would be willing to donate and I think we can makeup the difference so there would be no cost to the City. We would love to help the Rotary Club accomplish their goals and we would like to also support the Business Association. Our equipment is on site finishing the road from the Elementary School and Unit #1.

Mr. Jonathan Mitchell, City Engineer we have prioritized this project to complete it before the rainy season. There are additional requirements that are triggered when we enter into the rainy season for a construction project. I received a memo from our Environmental Specialist stating that she is confident that we can move forward from an environmental standpoint on this project. That review included CEQA as well as a determination from California Fish and Wildlife, as well as required permits on the Federal level. From an engineering staff and our environmental resource team, I can recommend this project move forward without delay.

David Livingstone, thanks to Mr. Borge for offering the equipment for this Project.

Gary Thomas, I think George Lee, City Manager should be the point of contact when there is discussion with Caltrans regarding the entrance to Howard Park.

Vice Mayor Wratten, 1 am concerned we do not have anything in writing, approved and signed off for a project like this. Andy Pinasco, City Attorney, my understanding from staff is that they are still working through this. If there are not any determinations needed by Council, direction to staff would be appropriate and they can move forward under the City Manager. In the event that the Council does have to make some formal determination, project related, then it would be brought back to Council.

2. Discussion/Action on Assignment of Franchise Agreement from ACES (Amador County Environmental Services) to Delta Container Corp./Republic Services - Andy Pinasco, City Attorney commented that on July 17, 2024, the City received a letter from ACES Waste Services, Inc. seeking the City's consent to assign the Amended and Restated Franchise Agreement for Solid Waste Collection, Disposal and Recycling Services under Article M - Assignment to Republic Services because of proposed sale. After discussion by Council, it was moved by Vice Mayor Wratten, seconded by Councilmember Mitchell and carried to adopt Resolution No. 2024-26 Authorizing Assignment of the Amended and Restated Franchise Agreement for Solid Waste Collection, Disposal and Recycling Services.

AYES: LaFayne, Wratten, Mitchell, Rhoades

3. Report on Castle Oaks Entrance Landscaping - Work Completed v. Contract - Ken Mackey met with Chris Strong, EcoUrban Designs, Inc. regarding the entrance medium to the Castle Oaks Subdivision between Highway 104 continuing southwest to Braeburn Way (approximately 90,000 sq. ft. project overall).

After meeting on site seeing the progress and the approved drawing, with the approved modifications by the City Engineer, it appears the landscaping and irrigation project is being completed as per the agreement. Unknown or unseen issues that have come up have been reported. Issues have been corrected with the exception of the items previously listed, (such as the highway side or the stolen control box).

I have found that with all the information provided to me, that the contractor has done the work required and was approved in Phase #1 and #2 by the City Engineer, and Phase #3 will be completed soon and will be ready for final inspection by the Engineer. We will need to address the outer areas of the street that runs along the wall of the subdivisions for continued maintenance and upgrades to the sprinklers for water saving and cost reduction if this falls onto the City Engineer clarified that his scope on this has been limited to the capital construction project only and it was primarily focused around generating the scope and fee portions of the contract, so I do not have knowledge of the maintenance activities. I have completed a recent review of Phase 2 of the capital portion of the project.

Vice Mayor Wratten - the original maintenance contract was extended when the Council approved the rehab project at the same time. Mayor LaFayne - hearing the comments tonight, it looks like there is a maintenance issue rather than the work that has been done under the Capital Construction Project.

Andy Pinasco, City Attorney agreed to work with the City Manager to see if there is an enforceable contract. If there is not, then we would need direction from Council to put together an RFP, and bring it back at the next Council meeting.

F. PUBLIC COMMENT:

Larry Rhoades, I attended a recent Sewer Meeting and there was nothing on the agenda regarding the Regional Water Board issuing a work order requires the City to determine which facility has the capacity to handle the waste streams.

Larry Caputo, thanked the Council and City Manager for the job you have done on the negotiations on the Golf Course and keeping it open.

Jim Scully, came across an article that was presented to the City September 4, 2024 regarding the City Town Field being on line and eliminating Ponds 6 and 7 in the summer months. We will be using them in the Winter months when the natural ground water is higher than the clay bowl mobilizing the contaminated water to mushroom out at a much lower level, which has a much higher chance of contaminating wells. Current data does not support a finding that Ponds 6 and 7 are causing on going impacts. Current data that is not in this report at all. Consider this a Public Records Request.

Tommy Quinn, would like the crosswalks downtown be re-painted because it is a safety hazard. Vice Mayor Wratten suggested having Caltrans attend a future Council meeting for an update on the recent overlay on Highway 104 and Highway 124.

Michelle Gallagher, Amador County Code Enforcement Officer informed the Council of a Recycling Community Event on Friday, November 1, 2024 at Pioneer Park and River Pines at the RIP Lot.

These recordings provide an accurate and comprehensive backup of City Council deliberations and citizen discussions.

I. REGULAR AGENDA:

1. Streambed Alteration Agreement Amendment-Biologist Requirement- This requirement came up during the recent Creek Committee Meeting. Krystal Acrieto, Vice Chairman of the Creek Committee - We have an existing Streambed Alteration Agreement with CDFW expiring in 2026, and amended last year to expand the footprint. However, in order to actually do work in the Creek you have a designated Biologist on file approved by CDFW. The motion made by the Creek Committee was to direct staff to reach out to the City Engineer about a designated biologist and check to see if there is an option through CalFire or any other authority we might have from the public safety perspective in terms of maintenance of the levees.

Jonathan Mitchell, City Engineer we do have a Biologist on staff, but we partner with local Biologists from Calaveras County and we can look at some contracting mechanisms to make that happen. Biologist has to be on site whenever project work is happening.

Direction was given to staff to coordinate with City Engineer and his partners to get a Biologist as long as it is within the City Manager's funding authority.

Councilmember Rhoades commented that I have managed Streambed Alteration Permits and the best thing about the City having a Streambed Alteration Permit is Fish and Wildlife finds the Biologist.

2. Creek Cleaning Resources and Grant Options - Krystal Acierto, some of the things we talked about are longer term in the event that we are not able to get a Biologist and move forward with Creek cleaning. We talked about the Urban Streams Restoration Program that offers grant for City's that have Creeks running through their City. We have reached to the Department of Water Resources to figure out what Grant options are available. We will be discussing this at an upcoming meeting to prepare us for next year. Mayor LaFayne would like to have updates from the various Committees at Council meetings.

3. Authorize Staff to Proceed with RFQ for Howard Park (CIP) - Vice Mayor Wratten commented that what is needed is a Request for Quotes or a Request for Information. Mayor LaFayne commented that a Traffic Study or any Environmental Impact Report was not a part of the RFQ, which is needed because of the damage being done by the cars when more than one event is happening at the same time.

Andy Pinasco, City Attorney suggested that defining the scope will help the City Manager than what we call the document.

Dan Traxler, Chairman, Park & Recreation Commission would like to see the parking situation addressed sooner than later. Also, I would like any recommendation by the Council be brought to the Park & Recreation Commission first.

Moved by Vice Mayor Wratten, seconded by Councilmember Atlan and carried to give the City Manager authority to create and distribute an Request for Information for Howard Park CIP.

AYES: LaFayne, Wratten, Atlan, Mitchell, Rhoades
NOES: None
ABSENT: None

4. Re-appoint Fern Day and Appoint Victor Leznik to the Park and Recreation Commission - George Lee, City Manager commented that two appointments were up on the Park & Recreation Commission, Fern Day and Demi Wright.

Three applications were received by the deadline, Fern Day, Demi Wright and Victor Lenik. The applications were reviewed by Mayor LaFayne and Councilmember Dominic Atlan. The decision was made to re-appoint Fern Day and appoint Victor Leznik to the Park & Recreation Commission.

Demi Wright expressed here gratitude to the Council for allowing her to serve as a Commissioner on the Park & Recreation Commission. While I do not think my work is done, but will be cheering from the sidelines. I learned my term was up when I happened to look at tonight's agenda. A simple acknowledgment of my ervices would have been appreciated. I wish the new appointee well and hop he work we started continues with dedication and care. I remain committed t the well-being of our City and Parks, and hope in the future that all volunteers feel valued and respected.

Jody Maita would like to know whose decision it is when it is time to re-appoint.

There seems to be a pattern here, it happened to the Creek Committee tha vorked very hard for some time and felt disc to the point that they resigne Larry Rhoades asked why Demi Wright's letter was not in the agenda packet along with the other two that were received. Staff was directed to include letters from Fern Day and Victor Leznik.

Moved by Vice Mayor Wratten, seconded by Councilmember Atlan and carried to appoint Fern Day and Victor Leznik to the Park & Recreation Commission.

This Code is not intended to modify or abridge the provisions of the Political Reform Act of 1974 (the "Act") (Government Code Section 81000, et seq.). The requirements of this Code are in addition to the requirements of the Act and other laws pertaining to conflicts of interest. Except as otherwise indicated, the definitions contained in the Act and the Regulations of the Fair Political Practices Commission (2 Cal. Code of Regulations, (sections 18100, et seq.) are incorporated by reference to this Code.

Section 2.0 Incorporation by Reference. Title 2, section 18730 of the California Code of Regulations, and any amendments thereto duly adopted by the Fair Political Practices Commission, are fully incorporated herein by reference.

Section 3.0 Designated Positions and Employees. The positions listed in Attachment A to this Code are designated positions. Persons holding designated positions are designated employees under this Code. It has been determined that persons holding designated positions may, because of the duties and authority assigned to each designated position, be placed in the position of making one or more decisions from which they must disqualify themselves because the decision may foreseeably have a material effect on one or more of their financial interests.

Section 4.0 Disclosure Categories. Each designated position is assigned one of the disclosure categories described and set forth in Attachment B to this Code. Each designated employee shall file an annual statement disclosing that person's interest in investments, real property, and income, designated as reportable under the disclosure category to which the person's position is assigned.

Section 5.0 Place and Time of Filing.
(a) Place of Filing. All persons required to submit a Statement of Economic Interests shall file the original with the City of Ione City Clerk. (b) Retention of Statements. The City Clerk shall retain the original Statements of Economic Interests.
(c) Assuming Office Statements. All persons appointed, promoted or transferred to designated positions shall file assuming office statements within 30 days after assuming the designated position.

Page 1 of 4 ends

(e) Leaving Office Statements. All persons who leave designated positions shall file statements within 30 days after leaving office.

Section 6.0 Content and Period Covered by Statements of Economic Interests. (a) Form. Disclosure statements shall be made on forms supplied by, or meeting the requirements of, the City Clerk (Statement of Economic Interests form) and shall disclose the information identified in Title 2, section 18730 of the California Code of Regulations, that is subject to disclosure based on the employee's disclosure category.
(b) Contents of Initial Statements. Initial statements shall disclose any reportable investments, interests in real property, and business positions held on the effective date of the Code and income received during the 12 months prior to the effective date of the Code.
(c) Contents of Assuming Office Statements. Assuming office statements shall disclose any reportable investments, interests in real property and business positions held on the date of assuming office and income received during the 12 months prior to the date of assuming office.
(d) Contents of Annual Statements. Annual statements shall disclose any reportable investments, interests in real property, income and business positions held or received during the previous calendar year provided, however, that the period covered by a person's first annual statement shall begin on the effective date of the Code or the date of assuming office, whichever is later. (e) Contents of Leaving Office Statements. Leaving office statements shall disclose reportable investments, interests in real property, income and business positions held or received during the period between the closing date of the last statement filed and the date of leaving office.

Section 7.0 Disqualification. No designated employee shall make, participate in making, or in any way attempt to use his or her official position to influence the making of any governmental decision which he or she knows or has reason to know will have a reasonably foreseeable material financial effect, distinguishable from its effect on the public generally, on the official or employee or a member of his or her immediate family, or an interest identified in California Code of Regulations, title 2, section 18730.

Section 8.0 Manner of Disqualification. When a designated employee determines that he or she should not make a governmental decision because he or she has a disqualifying interest in it, the determination not to act must be accompanied by disclosure of the disqualifying interest. In the case of a voting body, this determination and disclosure shall be made part of the City's official record; in the case of an official or employee who is the head of an agency, this determination and disclosure shall be made in writing to his

Page 2 of 4 ends

or her appointing authority; and in the case of other officials or employees, this determination shall be made in writing to the designated official's or employee's supervisor.

Additionally, if an official in this Code determines not to act because of a disqualifying financial interest, this determination must be accompanied by disclosure of the financial interest, made part of the City's official record, or made in writing to the official's supervisor or to the appointing power. (2 Cal. Code Regs. 18702 1(a)(5); Bennett Advice Letter, No. A-98-239.) A Disclosure of Financial Interests form is attached hereto for your convenience.

We caution public officials, however, not to rely on the form to determine whether rhty have a contlict of interest, in that the laws related to conflicts of interest are comprehensive and fact intensive. Rather, this form is to be completed and filed after an independent determination that a conflict exists has been made. Once completed, these forms should be filed with the City Clerk. When a disqualification is made orally, and on the record in a public proceeding, such a disqualification should be made in the following Investment, "I disqualify myself from this item because it is reasonably foreseeable that (name of business entity) in which I have an investment interest, will be materially affected by this decision."
Real Property, "I disqualify myself from this item because it is reasonably foreseeable that my real property, which is located in the City of lone and within 500 feet of the project, will be materially affected by this decision." Income, "I disqualify myself from this item because it is reasonably foreseeable that (name of entity or individual), which is a source of income to me, will be materially affected by this decision."
Business Position, "I disqualify myself from this item because it is reasonably foreseeable that (name of business or entity), which I am a (director, officer, partner, trustee, employee, or hold a management position, etc.), will be materially affected by this decision."
Gift, "I disqualify myself from this item because it is reasonably foreseeable that (name of entity or individual), which is the donor of a gift to me, will be materially affected by this decision."
Section 9.0 Assistance. Any designated employee who is unsure of his or her duties under this code may request assistance from the Fair Political Practices Commission or from the City Attorney, provided that nothing in this section requires the City Attorney to issue any formal or informal opinion.

Page 3 of 4 ends

Section 10.0 Violations. This code has the force and effect of law. Designated mployees violating any provision of this code are subject to the administrative, crimina ind civil sanctions provided in the Political Reform Act. In addition, a decision i relation to which a violation of the disqualification provisions of this code has occurred may be set aside as void pursuant to Government Code section 91003.

I. OVERVIEW
Developed by Amador County businesses and the Amador Council of Tourism (ACT), the Amador County Tourism Marketing District (ACTMD) is an assessment district proposed to provide specific benefits to payors, by funding marketing and sales promotion efforts for assessed businesses. This approach has been used successfully in other destination areas throughout the country to provide the benefits of additional room night sales directly to payors.

Location: The proposed ACTMD includes all lodging businesses and all short-term rentals, existing and in the future, available for public occupancy located within the boundaries of the County of Amador (County) including the cities of Amador City, Ione, Jackson, Plymouth, and Sutter Creek and the unincorporated areas of the County as shown on the map in Section III.

Services: The ACTMD is designed to provide specific benefits directly to payors by increasing awareness and demand for room night sales. Marketing and sales promotions will increase demand for overnight tourism and market payors as tourist, meeting and event destinations, thereby increasing demand for room night sales.

Budget: The total ACTMD annual assessment budget for the initial year of its five (5) year operation is anticipated to be approximately $200,000. A similar budget is expected to apply to subsequent years, but this budget is expected to fluctuate as room sales do and as businesses open and close.

Cost: The annual assessment rate is two percent (2%) of gross short-term sleeping room rental revenue. Based on the benefit received, assessments will not be collected on:

II. BACKGROUND
TDs are an evolution of the traditional Business Improvement District. The first TMD was formed in West Hollywood, California in 1989. Since then, over 100 California destinations have followed suit. In recent years, other states have begun adopting the California model - Massachusetts, Washington, Colorado,
adopted TID laws. Several other states are in the process of adopting their own legislation. The cities of Wichita, Kansas and Newark, New Jersey used an existing business improvement district law to form a IMD. Additionally, some cities, like Portland, Oregon and Memphis, Tennessee have utilized their home rule powers to create TDs without a state law.

California's TMDs collectively raise

TMDs utilize the efficiencies of

tourism districts. TMDs allow tourism business owners to organize their efforts to increase commerce. Business owners within the TMD pay an assessment and those funds are used to provide services that increase commerce.

In California, most TMDs are formed pursuant to the 94 Law. This law allows for the creation of a enetit assessment district to raise tunds within a specitic geographic area. Ibe Rey differenc etween TMDs and other benefit assessment districts is that funds raised are returned to the private non-prof corporation governing the district.

There are many benefits to TMDs:

Funds must be spent on services and improvements that provide a specific benefit only to those who pay;
• Funds cannot be diverted to general government programs; They are customized to fit the needs of payors in each destination; They allow for a wide range of services;
They are designed, created and governed by those who will pay the assessment; and They provide a stable, long-term funding source for tourism promotion.

IV. ASSESSMENT BUDGET AND SERVICES
ACTMD Management District Plan 5
«MIDP_date»
A. Annual Service Plan
Assessment funds will be spent to provide specific benefits conferred or privileges granted directly to the payors that are not provided to those not charged, and which do not exceed the reasonable cost to the County of conferring the benefits or granting the privileges. The privileges and services provided with the ACTMD funds are sales and marketing programs available only to assessed A service plan assessment budget has been developed to deliver services that benefit the assessed businesses. A detailed annual assessment budget will be developed and approved by the ACT. The chart below illustrates the initial annual assessment budget allocations. These activities and allocations will also apply in subsequent years. The total initial assessment budget is $200,000.

Initial Annual Assessment Budget - $200,000
Administration & Operations,
$20,000, 10%
Collection Fee,
$6,000, 3%
Sales and Marketing,
$154,000, 77%
Contingency/Reserve,
$20,000, 10%
Although actual revenues will fluctuate due to market conditions, the proportional allocations of the budget shall remain the same. However, the County and the ACT Board shall have the authority to adjust budget allocations between the categories by no more than fifteen percent (15%) of the total budget per year. A description of the proposed improvements and activities for the initial year of operation is below. The same activities are proposed for subsequent years. In the event of a legal challenge against the ACTMD, any and all assessment funds may be used for the costs of defending the ACTMD. In the first year of operation, the costs of creating the ACTMD may be repaid by deducting repayment funds proportionally from budget categories. Repayment costs shall not exceed Each budget category includes all costs related to providing that service. For example, the sales and marketing budget includes the cost of staff time dedicated to overseeing and implementing the sales and marketing program. Staff time dedicated purely to administrative tasks is allocated to the administrative portion of the budget. The costs of an individual staff member may be allocated to multiple budget categories. The staffing levels necessary to provide the services below will be determined by the ACT on an as-needed basis.

Sales and Marketing
A sales and marketing program will promote assessed businesses as tourist, meeting, and event destinations. The sales and marketing program will have a central theme of promoting Amador County as a desirable place for overnight visits. The program will have the goal of increasing overnight visitation and room night sales at assessed businesses, and may include the following activities:
• Internet marketing efforts to increase awareness and optimize internet presences to drive overnight visitation and room sales to assessed businesses; • Print ads in magazines and newspapers targeted at potential visitors to drive overnight visitation and room sales to assessed businesses;
• Television ads targeted at potential visitors to drive overnight visitation and room sales to assessed businesses;
• Radio ads targeted at potential visitors to drive overnight visitation and room sales to assessed businesses;
• Attendance at trade shows to promote assessed businesses; • Sales blitzes for assessed businesses;
• Familiarization tours of assessed businesses;
• Preparation and production of collateral promotional materials such as brochures, flyers, and maps featuring assessed businesses;
• Attendance of professional industry conferences and affiliation events to promote assessed businesses;
• Lead generation activities designed to attract tourists and group events to assessed businesses; • Director of Sales and General Manager meetings to plan and coordinate tourism promotion efforts for assessed businesses;
• Education of hospitality staff on service and safety designed to create a visitor experience that will bring repeat visits to assessed businesses;
• Education of lodging business management and the ACT on marketing strategies best suited to meet assessed business' needs; and
• Community organization grants to promote events and activities that target potential visitors to drive overnight visitation and room sales to assessed businesses.

Administration and Operations

Collection Fee
A third party collection agency shall be paid a fee equal to three (3%) percent of the amount of assessment collected, to cover its costs of collection and administration.

Contingency/Reserve
The budget includes a contingency line item to account for uncollected assessments, if any. If there are contingency funds collected, they may be held in a reserve fund or utilized for other program, administration or renewal costs at the discretion of the ACT Board. Policies relating to contributions to the reserve fund, the target amount of the reserve fund, and expenditure of monies from the reserve fund shall be set by the ACT Board. Contingency/reserve funds may be spent on ACTMDprograms or administrative and renewal costs in such proportions as determined by the ACT Board. The reserve fund may be used for the costs of renewing the ACTMD.

ACTMD Management District Plan 7
«MIDP_date»
B. Annual Budget
The total five (5) year improvement and service plan budget is projected at approximately $200,000 annually, or approximately $1,500,000 through 2030. A similar budget is expected to apply to subsequent years, but this budget is expected to fluctuate as room sales do and as businesses open and close.

C. California Constitutional Compliance
The ACTMD assessment is not a property-based assessment subject to the requirements of Proposition 218. Courts have found Proposition 218 limited the term 'assessments' to levies on real property! Rather, the ACTMD assessment is a business-based assessment, and is subject to Proposition 26. Pursuant to Proposition 26 all levies are a tax unless they fit one of seven exceptions. • Two of these exceptions apply to the ACTMD, a "specific benefit" and a "specific government service." Both require that the costs of benefits or services do not exceed the reasonable costs to the County of conferring the benefits or providing the services.

1. Specific Benefit
Proposition 26 requires that assessment funds be expended on, "a specific benefit conferred or privilege granted directly to the payor that is not provided to those not charged, and which does not exceed the reasonable costs to the local government of conferring the benefit or granting the privilege." The services in this Plan are designed to provide targeted benefits directly to assessed businesses, and are intended only to provide benefits and services directly to those businesses paying the assessment. These services are tailored not to serve the general public, businesses in general, or parcels of land, but rather to serve the specific businesses within the ACTMD. The activities described in this Plan are specifically targeted to increase demand for room night sales for assessed businesses within the boundaries of the ACTMD, and are narrowly tailored. ACTMD funds will be used exclusively to provide the specific benefit of increased demand for room night sales directly to the assessees. Assessment funds shall not be used to feature non-assessed businesses in ACTMD programs, or to directly generate sales for non-assessed businesses. The activities paid for from assessment revenues are business services constituting and providing specific benefits to the assessed businesses.

The assessment imposed by this ACTMD is for a specific benefit conferred directly to the payors that is not provided to those not charged. The specific benefit conferred directly to the payors is an increase in demand for room night sales. The specific benefit of an increase in demand for room night sales for assessed businesses will be provided only to businesses paying the district assessment, with marketing and sales programs promoting businesses paying the ACTMD assessment. The marketing and sales programs will be designed to increase room night sales at each assessed businesses.

Because they are necessary to provide the marketing and sales programs that specifically benefit the assessed businesses, the administration and contingency services also provide the specific benefit of increased demand for room night sales to the assessed businesses.

Although the ACTMD, in providing specific benefits to payors, may produce incidental benefits to non-paying businesses, the incidental benefit does not preclude the services from being considered a specific benefit. The legislature has found that, "A specific benefit is not excluded from classification ' Jarvis v. the City of San Diego 72 Cal App. 4'h 230
2 Cal. Const. art XIII C § 1(e)(I)
ACTMD Management District Plan 8
«MDP_date»
as a 'specific benefit' merely because an indirect benefit to a nonpayer occurs incidentally and without cost to the payor as a consequence of providing the specific benefit to the payor."

2. Specific Government Service
The assessment may also be utilized to provide, "a specific government service or product provided directly to the payor that is not provided to those not charged, and which does not exceed the reasonable costs to the local government of providing the service or product."t The legislature has recognized that marketing and promotions services like those to be provided by the ACTMD are government services within the meaning of Proposition 26. Further, the legislatute has determined that "a specific government service is not excluded from classification as a 'specific government service' merely because an indirect benefit to a nonpayer occurs incidentally and without cost to the payor as a consequence of providing the specific government service to the payor."

3. Reasonable Cost
ACTMD services will be implemented carefully to ensure they do not exceed the reasonable cost of such services. The full amount assessed will be used to provide the services described herein. Funds will be managed by the ACT, and reports submitted on an annual basis to the County. Only assessed businesses will be featured in marketing materials, receive sales leads generated from ACTMD-funded activities, be featured in advertising campaigns, and benefit from other ACTMD-funded services.

Non-assessed businesses will not receive these, nor any other, ACTMD-funded services and benefits.

The ACTMD-funded programs are all targeted directly at and feature only assessed businesses. It is, however, possible that there will be a spill over benefit to non-assessed businesses. It non-assessed businesses receive incremental room nights, that portion of the promotion or program generating those room nights shall be paid with non-ACTMD funds. ACTMD funds shall only be spent to benefit the assessed businesses, and shall not be spent on that portion of any program which directly generates incidental room nights for non-assessed businesses.

D. Assessment
The annual assessment rate is two percent (2%) of gross short-term sleeping room rental revenue.

Based on the benefit received, assessments will not be collected on: stays of more than thirty (30) consecutive days; stays by government employees on government business; and stays pursuant to contracts executed prior to the formation of the ACTMD.

The assessment was calculated based on the total cost of the activities to be provided for the benefit of the businesses within the ACTMD with costs allocated based on the proportional benefit conferred to each business. Activities funded by the ACTMD, are specifically targeted to increase room nights at assessed businesses. All room night sales do not represent the same benefit to the payors. For example, a higher priced room night is of greater benefit than a lower priced room night because the assessee derives greater revenue. To account for this benefit differential and to make sure the benefits are proportional, an assessment formula based on a percentage of revenue has been selected. The proposed formula accurately reflects greater benefit to assessed businesses with higher priced room nights.

The term "gross short-term sleeping room rental revenue" as used herein means: the consideration charged, whether or not received, for the occupancy of space in a hotel or short term rental, valued in money, whether to be received in money, goods, labor or otherwise, including all receipts, cash, credits, and property and services of any kind or nature, without any deduction therefrom whatsoever. Gross short-term sleeping room rental revenue shall not include any federal, state or local taxes collected, including but not limited to transient occupancy taxes.

The assessment is levied upon and a direct obligation of the assessed lodging business or short-term rental. However, the assessed lodging business or short-term rental may, at its discretion, pass the assessment on to transients. The amount of assessment, if passed on to each transient, shall be alternative, the disclosure may include the amount of the ACTMD assessment and the amount of the assessment imposed pursuant to the Calitornia Tourism Marketing Act, Government Code 913995 et seg. and shall be disclosed as the "Tourism Assessment." The assessment is imposed solely upon, and is the sole obligation of the assessed business even if it is passed on to transients. The assessment shall not be considered revenue for the calculation of transient occupancy taxes.

Bonds shall not be issued.

E. Overdue Charges and Interest
The ACTMD shall reimburse the third-party collection agency for any costs associated with collecting unpaid assessments. If sums in excess of the delinquent ACTMD assessment are sought to be recovered in the same collection action by the third-party collection agency, the ACTMD shall bear its pro rata share of such collection costs. Assessed businesses which are delinquent in paying the assessment shall be responsible for paying:

1. Original Delinquency

2. • Continued Delinquency

3. Fraud

4. Interest
F. Time and Manner for Collecting Assessments
The ACTMD assessment will be implemented beginning January 1, 2025, or as soon as possible thereafter, and shall continue for five (5) years. A third-party collection agency will be responsible for collecting the assessment on a quarterly basis including any delinquencies, interest, and overdue charges) from each assessed business. The third-party agency may take all reasonable efforts to collect the assessments from each assessed business. The third-party agency may forward the assessments collected to the Owners' Association.

OVERNANCE
A. Owners' Association
The County through adoption of this Plan, has the right, pursuant to Streets and Highways Code $36651, to identify the body that shall implement the proposed program, which shall be the Owners' Association of the ACTMD as defined in Streets and Highways Code 536612. The County has determined that the ACT will serve as the Owners' Association for the ACTMD.

B. Brown Act and California Public Records Act Compliance An Owners' Association is a private entity and may not be considered a public entity for any purpose, nor may its board members or staff be considered to be public officials for any purpose. The Owners' Association is, however, subject to government regulations relating to transparency, namely the Ralph M. Brown Act and the California Public Records Act. These regulations are designed to promote ublic accountability. The Owners' Association acts as a legislative body under the Ralph M. Brown Act (Government Code §54950 et seq.). Thus, meetings of the ACT Board and certain committees must be held in compliance with the public notice and other requirements of the Brown Act.

Accordingly, the Owners' Association shall publicly report any action taken and the vote or abstention on that action of each member present for the action. The Owners' Association is also subject to the record keeping and disclosure requirements of the California Public Records Act.

C. Annual Report
The ACT shall present an annual report at the end of each year of operation to the County pursuant to Streets and Highways Code §36650 (see Appendix 1). The annual report shall include:
• Any proposed changes in the boundaries of the improvement district or in any benefit zones or classification of businesses within the district.
• The improvements and activities to be provided for that fiscal year. • An estimate of the cost of providing the improvements and the activities for that fiscal year. • The method and basis of levying the assessment in sufficient detail to allow each business owner to estimate the amount of the assessment to be levied against his or her business for that fiscal year.
• The estimated amount of any surplus or deficit revenues to be carried over from a previous fiscal year.
• The estimated amount of any contributions to be made from sources other than assessments levied pursuant to this part.

PART 7. PROPERTY AND BUSINESS IMPROVEMENT DISTRICT LAW OF 1994 CHAPTER 1. General Provisions
ARTICLE 1. Declarations
36600. Citation of part
This part shall be known and may be cited as the "Property and Business Improvement District Law of 1994" 36601. Legislative findings and declarations; Legislative guidance The Legislature finds and declares all of the following:
(a) Businesses located and operating within business districts in some of this state's communities are economically disadvantaged, are underutilized, and are unable to attract customers due to inadequate facilities, services, and activities in the business districts. (b) It is in the public interest to promote the economic revitalization and physical maintenance of business districts in order to create jobs, attract new businesses, and prevent the erosion of the business districts. (c) It is of particular local benefit to allow business districts to fund business related improvements, maintenance, and activities through the levy of assessments upon the businesses or real property that receive benefits from those improvements.
(d) Assessments levied for the purpose of conferring special benefit upon the real property or a specific benefit upon the businesses in a business district are not taxes for the general benefit of a city, even if more useful by providing the following benefits:
(1) Crime reduction. A study by the Rand Corporation has confirmed a 12-percent reduction in the incidence of robbery and an 8-percent reduction in the total incidence of violent crimes within (2) Job creation.
(3) Business attraction.
(4) Business retention.
(5) Economic growth.
(6) New investments.
(f) With the dissolution of redevelopment agencies throughout the state, property and business improvement districts have become even more important tools with which communities can combat blight, promote economic opportunities, and create a clean and safe environment. (g) Since the enactment of this act, the people of California have adopted Proposition 218, which added Article XIII D to the Constitution in order to place certain requirements and restrictions on the formation of, and activities, expenditures, and assessments by property-based districts. Article XIII D of the Constitution provides that property-based districts may only levy assessments for special benefits. (h) The act amending this section is intended to provide the Legislature's guidance with regard to this act, its interaction with the provisions of Article XIII D of the Constitution, and the determination of special benefits in property-based districts.
(1) The lack of legislative guidance has resulted in uncertainty and inconsistent application of this act, which discourages the use of assessments to fund needed improvements, maintenance, and activities in property-based districts, contributing to blight and other underutilization of property.

ACTMD Management District Plan 12
«MDP_date»
(2) Activities undertaken for the purpose of conferring special benefits upon property to be assessed inherently produce incidental or collateral effects that benefit property or persons not assessed. Therefore, for special benefits to exist as a separate and distinct category from general benefits, the incidental or collateral effects of those special benefits are inherently part of those special benefits. The mere fact that special benefits produce incidental or collateral effects that benefit property or persons not assessed does not convert any portion of those special benefits or their incidental or collateral effects into general benefits. (3) It is of the utmost importance that property-based districts created under this act have clarity regarding restrictions on assessments they may levy and the proper determination of special benefits. Legislative clarity with regard to this act will provide districts with clear instructions and courts with legislative intent regarding restrictions on property-based assessments, and the manner in which special benefits should be determined.
36602. Purpose of part
The purpose of this part is to supplement previously enacted provisions of law that authorize cities to levy assessments within property and business improvement districts, to ensure that those assessments conform to all constitutional requirements and are determined and assessed in accordance with the guidance set forth in this act.

This part does not affect or limit any other provisions of law authorizing or providing for the furnishing of improvements or activities or the raising of revenue for these purposes. 36603. Preemption of authority or charter city to adopt ordinances levying assessments Nothing in this part is intended to preempt the authority of a charter city to adopt ordinances providing for a different method of levying assessments for similar or additional purposes from those set forth in this part. A property and business improvement district created pursuant to this part is expressly exempt from the provisions of the Special Assessment Investigation, Limitation and Majority Protest Act of 1931 (Division 4 (commencing with Section 2800).
36603.5 Part prevails over conflicting provisions
Any provision of this part that conflicts with any other provision of law shall prevail over the other provision of law, as to districts created under this part.
36604. Severability
This part is intended to be construed liberally and, if any provision is held invalid, the remaining provisions shall remain in full force and effect. Assessments levied under this part are not special taxes.

(b) The name of the proposed district.
(c) A description of the boundaries of the district, including the boundaries of benefit zones, proposed for establishment or extension in a manner sufficient to identify the affected property and businesses included, which may be made by reference to any plan or map that is on file with the clerk. The boundaries of a proposed property assessment district shall not overlap with the boundaries of another existing property assessment district created pursuant to this part. This part does not prohibit the boundaries of a district created pursuant to this part to overlap with other assessment districts established pursuant to other provisions of law, including, but not limited to, the Parking and Business Improvement Area Law of 1989 (Part 6 (commencing with Section 36500)).

«MDP_date»
and a statement that the same improvements, maintenance, and activities are proposed for subsequent years shall satisfy the requirements of this subdivision.
(e) The total annual amount proposed to be expended for improvements, maintenance, or activities, and debt service in each year of operation of the district. If the assessment is levied on businesses, this amount may be estimated based upon the assessment rate. If the total annual amount proposed to be expended in each year of operation of the district is not significantly different, the amount proposed to be expended in the initial year and a statement that a similar amount applies to subsequent years shall satisfy the requirements of this subdivision.
(f) The proposed source or sources of financing, including the proposed method and basis of levying the assessment in sufficient detail to allow each property or business owner to calculate the amount of the assessment to be levied against their property or business. The plan also shall state whether bonds will be issued to finance improvements.
(g) The time and manner of collecting the assessments.
(h) The specific number of years in which assessments will be levied. In a new district, the maximum number of years shall be five. Upon renewal, a district shall have a term not to exceed 10 years.

Notwithstanding these limitations, a district created pursuant to this part to finance capital improvements with bonds may levy assessments until the maximum maturity of the bonds. The management district plan may set forth specific increases in assessments for each year of operation of the district. (i) The proposed time for implementation and completion of the management district plan. (1) A list of the properties or businesses to be assessed, including the assessor's parcel numbers for properties to be assessed, and a statement of the method or methods by which the expenses of a district will be imposed upon benefited real property or businesses, in proportion to the benefit (2) In a property-based district, the proportionate special benefit derived by each identified parcel shall be determined exclusively in relationship to the entirety of the capital cost of a public improvement, the maintenance and operation expenses of a public improvement, or the cost of the activities. An assessment shall not be imposed on any parcel that exceeds the reasonable cost of the proportional special benefit conferred on that parcel. Only special benefits are assessable, and a property-based district shall separate the general benefits, if any, from the special benefits conferred on a parcel. Parcels within a property-based district that are owned or used by any city, public agency, the State of California, or the United States shall not be exempt from assessment unless the governmental entity can demonstrate by clear and convincing evidence that those publicly owned parcels in fact receive no special benefit. The value of any incidental, secondary, or collateral effects that arise from the improvements, maintenance, or activities of a property- based district and that benefit property or persons not assessed shall not be deducted from the entirety of the cost of any special benefit or affect the proportionate special benefit derived by each identified parcel.
(3) In a property-based district, properties throughout the district may share the same special benefits. In a district with boundaries that define which parcels are to receive improvements, maintenance, or activities over and above those services provided by the city, the improvements, maintenance, or activities themselves may constitute a special benefit. The city may impose assessments that are less than the proportional special benefit conferred, but shall not impose assessments that exceed the reasonable costs of the proportional special benefit conferred. Because one or more parcels pay less than the special benefit conferred does not necessarily mean that other parcels are assessed more than the reasonable cost of their special benefit. (I) In a property-based district, a detailed engineer's report prepared by a registered professional engineer certified by the State of California supporting all assessments contemplated by the management district plan.
(m) Any other item or matter required to be incorporated therein by the city council. 36623. Procedure to levy assessment

A written protest may be withdrawn in writing at any time before the conclusion of the public hearing. Each written protest shall contain a description of the business in which the person subscribing the protest is interested sufficient to identify the business and, if a person subscribing is not shown on the official records of the city as the owner of the business, the protest shall contain or be accompanied by written evidence that the person subscribing is the owner of the business or the authorized representative. A written protest that does not comply with this section shall not be counted in determining a majority protest.

If written protests are received from the owners or authorized representatives of businesses in the proposed district that will pay 50 percent or more of the assessments proposed to be levied and protests are not withdrawn so as to reduce the protests to less than 50 percent, no further proceedings to levy the proposed assessment against such businesses, as contained in the resolution of intention, shall be taken for a period of one year from the date of the finding of a majority protest by the city council. (c) If a city council proposes to conduct a single proceeding to levy both a new or increased property assessment and a new or increased business assessment, the notice and protest and hearing procedure for the property assessment shall comply with subdivision (a), and the notice and protest and hearing procedure for the business assessment shall comply with subdivision (b). If a majority protest is received from either the property or business owners, that respective portion of the assessment shall not be levied. The remaining portion of the assessment may be levied unless the improvement or other special benefit was proposed to be funded by assessing both property and business owners. 36624.

This study will culminate with the development of a defensible Capital Improvement Program (CIP) for the COWRF, which will be a critical piece of developing a future regional recycled water program. A new Task Order in the amount of $59,500 for West Yost is needed to complete the Condition Assessment and Capital Improvement Plan.

FISCAL IMPACT:

The As-needed services Task Order is anticipated to be primarily funded from Wastewater account funds, or as appropriate based on task-specific requests.

SUBJECT: Proposal for Engineering Services for Condition Assessment and Capital Improvement Plan for the Castle Oaks Water Reclamation Facility Dear George:

West Yost is pleased to provide this proposal for engineering services to the City of lone's (City) Castle Oaks Water Reclamation Facility (COWRF). This proposal outlines the scope of services for the development of a Condition Assessment and Capital Improvement Plan (CIP) for the COWRF.

PROJECT UNDERSTANDING
West Yost has previously contracted with the City to develop a Title 22 Engineering Report to meet the requirements outlined by the California State Water Resources Control Board. This effort revealed that the COWRF is severely outdated, with multiple components and equipment items are from the facility's original construction in 1992. Many items are outside the manufacturers intended lifespan, are no longer receiving ongoing support, and are more difficult to replace when failures occur. If left unaddressed, performance issues are likely to increase in frequency and magnitude.

In order to identify specific improvements to the COWRF, a condition assessment of the facility was performed in May 2024, in which all mechanical equipment, electrical infrastructure, instrumentation, and control system components were evaluated for condition and performance. Findings from this effort will be used to develop a Capital Improvement Plan which defines recommendations for improvements, along with a proposed costs and timeline to implement these improvements.

SCOPE OF SERVICES
The following is a list of the key tasks necessary to perform this proposed scope of services, each further described below:
• Task 1. Project Management
• Task 2. COWRF Condition Assessment and CIP
Task 1. Project Management
West Yost will oversee the internal coordination of project activities and tasks. This task includes the preparation of an initial meeting to review the updated project scope of work, coordination of project activities, review of project progress, and management of project schedule and budget. West Yost will also perform QC on all project deliverables.

Task 1 Deliverables
• West Yost will provide monthly progress reports and invoices.

Task 2. COWRF Condition Assessment and CIP
West Yost will prepare a TM based documenting the condition and performance assessment of all structural, site/civil, mechanical, electrical, and control system assets and equipment critical to the primary operational functions of the COWRF. West Yost has previously conducted the on-site portion of this assessment at the COWRF on May 2, 2024. This task will develop and complete a TM, which summarizes the condition of COWRF at the time of the on-site work. The TM will include a list of recommended CIP to address deficiencies identified during the May site visit. A draft TM will be provided to the City for review and comments. Feedback from the City will be incorporated into a final TM and provided to the City.

Task 2 Assumptions
• The City will review and comment on the draft TM within a three-week timeframe.

Task 2 Deliverables
• West Yost will develop draft and final Condition Assessment TM.

PROJECT BUDGET
West Yost's proposed level of effort and budget for each of the tasks described above is shown in Table 1.

West Yost will perform the scope of services described above on a time-and-expenses basis, at the billing rates set forth in West Yost's attached 2025 Billing Rate Schedule (Attachment A), with a not-to-exceed budget of $59,500. Any additional services not included in this scope of services will be performed only after receiving written authorization and a corresponding budget augmentation.

Table 1. Estimated West Yost Project Budget
Task Estimated Fee, dollars
Task 1. Project Management 3,000
Task 2. COWRF Condition Assessment and CIP 56,500

AGENDA ITEM
DATE: December 3, 2024
TO: Members of lone City Council
FROM: Alison LaFayne, Mayor
SUBJECT: Amending the lone Municipal Code Title 2 to include City Council Term Limits
RECOMMENDED ACTION(S):
1) Direct staff and/or city attorney to draft a resolution and ordinance to amend the lone Municipal Code Title 2 to add Chapter 2.02- City Council and Section 2.02.010-Term Limits of City Council.

FISCAL IMPACT:
1) Publication of Ordinance Cost, if required. Administrative fees.

BACKGROUND:

In past years, the registered voters of the City of lone have communicated openly their concerns and mounting lack of faith in their current Elected Officials and administration of the city. Lack of responsible oversight, fiscal management, failure to initiate progress on city infrastructure, traffic problems, economic development, vision for the future and basic community support are among the top concerns. This is reflected after each election by the rise of undervotes identified by the Amador County Registrar of Voters. This past election near 40% of registered voters did not vote to select their own city council. In addition, while the population of the city has risen, the number of candidates each year has drastically been reduced, citing the conduct and disorderly behavior of councilmembers and lack of compensation. Citizens feel hopeless and unheard.

DISCUSSION:

Consider the following:

Add to the Municipal Code, City Council term limits to promote voter confidence and prompt council members to become active participants in the municipal process, while placing a two- year pause in between each consecutive term limit. Elected Officials should strive to become knowledgeable on municipal procedures, policy and issues facing the city and become good stewards of civil service and support their constituents on all matters. If the person decides to run for office after the two-year pause has expired, their past record and performance can be relied upon for re-election. The amendment could potentially limit those seeking control and appeal to individuals interested in contributing to the community.

Amending the Municipal Code to limit council terms to two consecutive elected terms would ensure reform and broaden the scope of representation on city council and put the power back in the hands of the people.
