Item No. 9 (D)
REPORT TO THE CITY COUNCIL
DATE: DECEMBER 9, 2025
TO: HONORABLE MAYOR AND MEMBERS OF THE CITY COUNCIL
FROM: STEVEN ADAMS, CITY MANAGER
RE: CONSIDERATION OF 2025-26 JOB CLASSIFICATION PLAN
RECOMMENDATION:
It is recommended the City Council adopt a Resolution approving the Amended FY 2025-26 Job Classification Plan.
BACKGROUND:
The City maintains a Job Classification Plan that sets forth all existing job classifications and salary ranges. It is also a requirement of CalPERS that the City Council adopt on an annual basis the City’s Job Classification Plan.
DISCUSSION:
The proposed additional changes to the Job Classification Plan include minor adjustments to certain positions due to changes in California’s minimum wage requirements and a 2.5% increase in hourly pay for other part-time recreation employees to prevent compaction issues.
COST ANALYSIS:
All salary and benefit adjustments recommended are included in the FY 2025- 26/FY 2026-27 Biennial Budget.
ENVIRONMENTAL REVIEW:
The Job Classification Plan is not a “project” for the purposes of the California Environmental Quality Act (CEQA) as it does not have the potential for resulting in either a direct physical change to the environment or a reasonably foreseeable

NOW, THEREFORE, BE IT HEREBY RESOLVED that the City Council of the City of King approves the FY 2025-26 Classification Plan as set forth in Exhibit A.

Item No. 9 (E)
REPORT TO THE CITY COUNCIL
DATE: DECEMBER 9, 2025
TO: HONORABLE MAYOR AND MEMBERS OF THE CITY COUNCIL
FROM: STEVEN ADAMS, CITY MANAGER
RE: CONSIDERATION OF SIDE LETTERS OF AGREEMENT WITH
LABOR ORGANIZATIONS
RECOMMENDATION:
It is recommended the City Council approve and authorize the City Manager to execute: 1) a First Side Letter of Agreement with the King City Confidential Employees Association (KCCEA); 2) a First Side Letter of Agreement with the King City Police Sergeants Association (KCPSA); 3) a First Side Letter of Agreement with the King City Police Officers Association (KCPOA); and 4) a Seventh Side Letter of Agreement with the Service Employees International Union Local 521 (SEIU).
BACKGROUND:
Memorandums of Understanding (MOUs) with KCCEA, KCPSA and KCPOA took effect on July 1, 2025. The KCCEA MOU will expire June 30, 2026 and the KCPSA and KCPOA MOUs expire on June 30, 2026. The SEIU MOU is in effect from July 1, 2022 to June 30, 2026.
The City’s proposed health insurance plan for calendar year 2026 includes a potential rebate at the end of the year if the cost of actual claims end up less than projected. Since the City and employees each pay a share of the increase, it was agreed that any reimbursements at the end of the year should be credited towards the health insurance cost increases. The union representatives all requested it be established in the form of a side letter to their MOUs.
An additional salary adjustment is also necessary to comply with State minimum wage requirements. State minimum wage law requires pay for any exempt position to be at least two times the minimum wage. With the California minimum
CITY COUNCIL

ORGANIZATIONS
DECEMBER 9, 2025

wage increasing again on January 1, 2026, it was discovered that the City Clerk’s salary range will fall slightly below this requirement.
DISCUSSION:
Each of the labor agreements establish an amount each employee pays toward the cost of their health insurance plan. Each year, their health insurance contribution is increased by the percentage increase of the overall primary health plan increase up to a maximum of 12%. The City pays the full increase for the self-insured portion of the health insurance and the entire cost for dental and vision insurance.
This year’s health insurance plan provided by Anthem will increase by 5.5%. The proposed MOU provisions update the employee contribution amounts and set forth that any reimbursements for 2026 will be used to offset increases for 2027 health insurance plan costs. Therefore, the funds would benefit both the City and employees consistent with the proportion of increased costs each party is responsible to pay.
The KCCEA side letter includes an additional provision to increase the City Clerk salary by approximately 1% to address the minimum wage issue for exempt positions. Exempt positions are jobs that are not eligible for overtime pay, minimum wage, or other protections under the Fair Labor Standards Act (FLSA).
To be classified as exempt, an employee must meet specific salary and duties tests, typically involving high-level responsibilities and specialized knowledge.
The attached First Side Letter of Agreement with the KCCEA was agreed to in order to maintain the MOU salary table consistent with the Job Classification Plan.
COST ANALYSIS:
The cost impact is minor and can be accommodated in the existing budget.
ENVIRONMENTAL REVIEW:
Labor agreements are not a “project” for the purposes of the California Environmental Quality Act (CEQA) as they do not have the potential for resulting in either a direct physical change to the environment or a reasonably foreseeable indirect physical change in the environment. No further action is required under CEQA for City Council action.
FIRST SIDE LETTER OF AGREEMENT
BETWEEN THE KING CITY CONFIDENTIAL EMPLOYEES ASSOCIATION
AND THE CITY OF KING
This first side letter is entered into by and between the King City Confidential Employees Association (“KCCEA”) and the City of King (“City”).
RECITALS
1. A Memorandum of Understanding (MOU) between the King City Confidential Employees Association (“KCCEA”) and the City is in effect for the period of July 1, 2025 to June 30, 2026.
2. The parties have mutually agreed to implement an additional salary increase to the City Clerk salary to comply with State of California regulations for exempt positions related to minimum wage requirements.
3. The parties have mutually agreed to allocate potential 2026 health insurance plan cost savings that may be reimbursed to the City to offset costs for 2027 health insurance plan costs.
AGREEMENT
It is therefore agreed that the City and KCCEA will implement the following changes, effective January 1, 2026:
1. ARTICLE III, SECTION 1 – HEALTH INSURANCE BENEFITS is amended to read as follows:
1.1 The City will maintain health insurance for employees and their eligible dependents that provides at least the same level of benefits as provided as of 7/1/2019.
1.2 The City shall provide employees with health insurance (medical, dental and optical) for each full-time employee and eligible dependents.
1.3 The Employee shall pay one hundred and seventy-four dollars and twenty-three cents ($174.23) per month plus fifty-five dollars and seventy-five cents ($55.75) per month per dependent up to three (3) dependents towards premiums. The amounts paid by the Employee for employee and dependent coverage shall further increase at any time the premium paid by the City to the provider for the primary plan increases. Each increase shall be calculated by applying the percentage of the increase experienced by the City up to a maximum of twelve percent (12%) per increase. Increases shall take effect on the date that any rate increase to the City by the primary plan provider takes effect. The City shall pay the remainder of the increase in premium(s). Any reimbursement received by the City from the EXHIBIT 1
primary plan provider for costs incurred for the calendar year 2026 primary plan shall be used to offset the total cost increase for the primary plan for calendar year 2027.
1.4 Spouse, domestic partner and dependent coverage shall continue to be available as provided through the City's Plan. An employee's spouse, domestic partner and/or dependent children under age twenty-six (26), as well as children over age twenty-six (26) and are incapable of supporting themselves due to physical or mental disabilities existing prior to obtaining age twenty-six (26), are eligible to be enrolled.
2. APPENDIX B-1 is amended to read as follows:

Item No. 9 (F)
REPORT TO THE CITY COUNCIL
DATE: DECEMBER 9, 2025
TO: HONORABLE MAYOR AND MEMBERS OF THE CITY COUNCIL
FROM: DOREEN LIBERTO, COMMUNITY DEVELOPMENT DIRECTOR
MARK McCLAIN, BUILDING OFFICIAL
RE: CONSIDERATION OF AN ORDINANCE AMENDING CHAPTERS
12.04 AND 12.08 OF THE KING CITY MUNICIPAL CODE
ADOPTING THE 2025 CALIFORNIA BUILDING AND FIRE
CODES
________________________________________________________________ RECOMMENDATION:
It is recommended City Council waive the second reading by title only and adopt waive the second reading by title only and adopt an Ordinance amending provisions of Chapter 12.04 and 12.08 of Title 12 of the King City Municipal Code pertaining to 2025 California Building and Fire Codes.
BACKGROUND:
The California Building Standards Commission (CBSC) has published the latest (2025) editions of the Building and Fire Codes (Codes) for the State of California.
They will become effective for every state agency and local municipality as of January 1, 2026. Cities and counties are mandated to adopt the State’s new construction codes every three years with or without local amendments.
Amendments are permitted provided that they are not less restrictive than the State code. Amendments to these codes must be supported by findings demonstrating that they are reasonably necessary to protect the health, welfare and safety of the citizens of King City due to local climatic, geological and topographical conditions. However, amendments to the Residential Code will not be permitted per current state law. The City Council introduced the Ordinance at the November 25, 2025 meeting.
CITY COUNCIL
CONSIDERATION OF AN ORDINANCE AMENDING CHAPTERS 12.04 AND
12.08 OF THE KING CITY MUNICIPAL CODE ADOPTING THE 2025
CALIFORNIA BUILDING AND FIRE CODES
DECEMBER 9, 2025
PAGE 2 OF 4
DISCUSSION:
The new codes contain 12 parts that incorporate the latest national standards in the International Building, Residential, and Fire Codes, National Electrical Code, and the Uniform Mechanical and Plumbing Codes. The new CBSC gives high priority to maintaining elevated levels of fire and emergency safety standards throughout the state. Access to persons with disabilities remains a high priority in California. Additionally, the new standards incorporate the latest seismic safety standards, ensuring that buildings will be designed and constructed utilizing the latest technology to reduce loss in the event of an earthquake.
The updated codes reflect California’s ongoing commitment to being a leader in energy efficiency. Key changes include requiring new homes and businesses to incorporate electric-ready infrastructure, improving the efficiency of HVAC systems, and introducing new standards for non-residential buildings. No amendments are proposed for residential uses.
In accordance with state law, local jurisdictions, through amendments, incorporate additional regulations that address special circumstances in the community, based on geographical, topographical or climatic conditions, provided said changes and modifications are not less restrictive than the State Codes. Amendments to the new CBSC must be adopted by the local jurisdiction and submitted to the State Building Standards Commission prior to enactment.
Accordingly, the City’s Building Official, upon evaluation of both the new CBSC and building code amendments currently in effect, is proposing a number of local amendments to the CBSC, most of which are the inclusion of the Appendix chapters of each model code. All of the amendments are supported by findings identified in the first part of the proposed ordinance.
The California Fire Code has been incorporated into the attached ordinance and serves as the basis for most of the proposed amendments. The City’s Fire Chief recommends several local modifications to the model California Fire Code to maintain the City’s high level of fire protection. These include updated regulations for pallet storage and photovoltaic systems to enhance firefighter safety. Many of these amendments are continued from the previous King City Fire Code, with the exception of reduced fire sprinkler requirements. These thresholds were not included in this adoption cycle to avoid creating financial barriers for new development, particularly along the future Broadway Street expansion and other commercial infill projects. As noted earlier, no amendments are proposed for residential uses in accordance with current state law.

b. Chapter 12 (Energy Systems; signage requirements for photovoltaic systems).
COST ANALYSIS:

The adoption of the 2025 California Title 24 building and fire codes with local amendments is not considered a “project” under CEQA Guidelines Section 15378 because it has no potential to result in a direct or reasonably foreseeable indirect physical change in the environment.
.
ALTERNATIVES:

1. Conduct the first reading of the ordinance as proposed;
2. Postpone consideration and request additional information;
3. Direct staff to delete amendments and introduce an ordinance that limits changes to only those required by the State; or

Runoff Control—where concentrated runoff will occur, it will be carried in pipe or culvert conduits or over a non-erodible surface (paved, rocked, or vegetated) to catchment basins clearly shown on the development plan. All conduits must have proper energy dissipaters at the point of discharge when necessary to prevent erosion.
Building Site Runoff—Runoff from the building site shall be controlled by berms, swales, ditches, structures, vegetative filter strips and/or catch-basins to prevent the escape of sediment from the site. At least one percent (1%) grade will be required toward an improved storm drainage or catch-basin facility, either existing or planned.

SECTION 2. The City Council hereby finds and determines all the amendments, deletions, and additions to the California Building Standards Code and other codes are necessary due to the following:
Climatic - The City of King experiences periods of high temperatures accompanied by low humidity and high winds each year. The City also experiences periods of intense rainfall, which creates the need for special drainage precautions.
Local Geological Conditions – City of King is located in the Salinas Valley in southern Monterey County, which is in a populated area having buildings constructed near a vast array of fault systems capable of producing major earthquakes. A severe seismic event could cause wide-spread damage, disrupt communications, damage gas mains, cause extensive electrical hazards, and place extreme demands on the limited and widely dispersed resources of rescue and fire-fighting resources resulting in failure to meet the fire and life safety needs of the community.
20 Local Topographical Conditions – The City of King being located adjacent to open vegetated areas subject to consistently high winds and potential fires, necessitates the amendments hereby adopted to address and clarify special needs to reduce fire hazard at the time of any disaster, natural or manmade, and to reduce hazards resulting from landslides, excessive erosion, and/or flooding.
SECTION 3. It is the intent of this ordinance to amend the King City Municipal Code. If the above amendment did not fully effectuate that intent, Council herby directs the City clerk to make any other such changes to the language in the King City Municipal Code as necessary to effectuate the intent of this Ordinance. Such changes shall be considered clerical.
SECTION 4. All ordinance and parts in conflict herewith are hereby repealed.
This ordinance will become effective on January 1st, 2026.
SECTION 5. If any provision(s) of this Ordinance or the application thereof to any person or circumstances is held invalid or unconstitutional by any court of competent jurisdiction, such invalidity or unconstitutionality shall not affect any other provision or application, and to this end the provisions of this ordinance are declared to be severable. The City Council hereby declares that it would have adopted this ordinance and each section, subsection, sentence, clause, phrase, parts or portions thereof be declared invalid or unconstitutional.
SECTION 6. This Ordinance shall take effect on January 1, 2026, and be in full force and effect from and after thirty (30) calendar days after its final passage and adoption. Within fifteen (15) calendar days after its adoption, the Ordinance, or a summary of the Ordinance, shall be published once in a newspaper of general circulation.
I HEREBY CERTIFY that the foregoing Ordinance was introduced by the City Council after waiving reading, except by Title, at a regular meeting thereof held on the 25th day of November, 2025, and adopted the Ordinance after the second reading at a regular meeting held on the ____ day of December, 2025, by the following roll call vote:

Item No. 9 (G)
REPORT TO THE CITY COUNCIL
DATE: DECEMBER 9, 2025
TO: HONORABLE MAYOR AND MEMBERS OF THE CITY COUNCIL
FROM: STEVEN ADAMS, CITY MANAGER
RE: CONSIDERATION OF APPLICATION FOR ANTHEM EMPLOYEE
MEDICAL INSURANCE PLAN
RECOMMENDATION:
It is recommended the City Council authorize the City Manager to submit an application and execute a change to the City’s employee medical insurance plan to enroll in the Anthem Balanced PPO 5000/20% HAS 8VVO Plan.
BACKGROUND:
The City’s current employee medical insurance plan is up for renewal on January 1 st. The City is currently enrolled in the Anthem PPO 6200 Plan, which was approved by the City Council at the December 12, 2023 meeting. The PPO has a network of preferred physicians and pharmacies that employees can choose from in order to receive maximum coverage. In addition, the City is self-insured for a portion of claims, which is administered by Employer Driven Insurance Services (E.D.I.S). This enables the City to obtain lower cost primary coverage.
The City’s insurance broker is 28 Insurance. Prior to each renewal period, they solicit quotes from different providers and present staff with an analysis of options.
DISCUSSION:
The City was recently notified by its insurance broker that the cost of the 2024 rates for the City’s current plan will increase by almost 14%, which will represent an annual increase of approximately $80,000. Under the City’s labor agreements with its employee unions, the City is obligated to provide a plan with benefits comparable to the plan in place when the Memorandum of Understanding (MOU) was executed. Under the MOUs for each of the labor groups, employees would receive an increase of 12% in their contribution amount. A number of alternative
CITY COUNCIL

plans were considered. The City Manager and Human Resources Manager met with representatives of each union to obtain their input.
Staff recommend transferring to the Anthem Balanced PPO 5000/20% HAS 8VVO Plan. This plan provides the same network, deductible and benefit levels.
The difference is that it is a level funded group health insurance plan, which means it projects the cost of City claims for the year and then charges the City based on what it feels will be the maximum cost. If claims end up below the projection, the City will be reimbursed from the savings at the end of the year. If claims are above, the rates are adjusted the following year.
The proposed cost represents an increase of 5.5% above the current cost, which is well below the cost to renew the current plan. This represents the maximum increase, but it could be less since there is a potential reimbursement. While the rates may be increased the following year, the City would maintain the option to switch again to another plan next year. No objections were submitted by the union representatives, and the proposed plan complies with the provisions of the MOUs.
COST ANALYSIS:
The projected increase is within the budgeted amount, so no additional appropriation is necessary. The proposed increase amount was also less than all other comparable plans identified.
ENVIRONMENTAL REVIEW:
Employee medical insurance is not considered a “project” for the purposes of the California Environmental Quality Act (CEQA). Therefore, the change does not have the potential for resulting in either a direct physical change to the environment or a reasonably foreseeable indirect physical change in the environment. No further action is required under CEQA for City Council action.
ALTERNATIVES:
The following alternatives have been identified for City Council consideration:
1. Approve staff’s recommendations;
2. Direct staff to apply for a different medical insurance plan and negotiate MOU changes with the employee unions;
3. Do not approve the recommendations and maintain the existing medical insurance plan; or
4. Provide other direction to staff.

Item No. 9 (J)
REPORT TO THE CITY COUNCIL
DATE: DECEMBER 9, 2025
TO: HONORABLE MAYOR AND MEMBERS OF THE CITY COUNCIL
FROM: STEVEN ADAMS, CITY MANAGER
RE: CONSIDERATION OF AIRPORT HANGAR AND LAND LEASE
RENTAL FEE INCREASE
RECOMMENDATION:
It is recommended the City Council adopt a Resolution increasing Mesa Del Rey executive and portable hangar land lease fees by 15% and amending the Master Fee Schedule to increase the rental rates for T-hangars by 15% effective January 1, 2026.
BACKGROUND:
The Mesa Del Rey Airport currently has 23 T-hangars that are rented for storage of aircrafts. There are also land leases for 3 privately owned executive hangars and 6 portable hangars. The existing rental fees for T-hangars are $245 per month. Land leases for executive and portable hangars vary. The City Council adopted a Resolution in November 2021 approving annual rate increases of 10% for a 5-year period. Prior to that time, rates had not been increased since 2017.
At the November 14, 2023 meeting, the City Council modified the increases for T-hangars the past 2 years to be 25% to bring them more in line with market rates. Land leases have not been increased for several years.
Each agreement includes the following provision:
The CITY reserves the right to revise rental amounts in subsequent periods by amending the Master Fee Schedule, subject to approval by the City Council of the City of King. CITY shall notify TENANT in writing of any changes to the monthly renal amount at least thirty (30) days prior to the effective date.
CITY COUNCIL
CONSIDERATION OF AIRPORT HANGAR AND LAND LEASE RENTAL FEE
INCREASE
DECEMBER 9, 2025
PAGE 2 OF 3
An additional rental fee increase is proposed at this time. Rent for T-hangars are invoiced semi-annually due on January 1st and July 1st and annually for land leases.
DISCUSSION:
Despite the annual increases recently approved, the City’s General Fund continues to subsidize the Mesa Del Rey Airport operation. All hangars and spaces are currently being leased. Despite annual inspections, the City also continues to experience problems with tenants leasing the hangars to use for storage of non-aviation related items given the low lease rates.
Staff recently prepared a citywide assessment of deferred maintenance items and determined the cost of needed maintenance on the existing T-hangars will cost over $200,000. Therefore, additional revenue is necessary and an increase in fees is not projected to result in any vacancies.
During the recent budget study session, City Council approved budget strategies to minimize use of reserves. One of the strategies was to increase hangar fees to reduce ongoing subsidies of Mesa Del Rey operation and improvement costs.
The increases will also help the City maintain compliance with Federal Aviation Administration (FAA) regulations since they require the City to charge market rates for rental of any airport property. Staff have determined that the City’s rates are currently lower than most other comparable airport hangar rentals.
COST ANALYSIS:
The proposed fee adjustment will result in an increase in revenue of approximately $15,000 annually.
ENVIRONMENTAL REVIEW:
The Master Fee Schedule adjustments are not a “project” for the purposes of the California Environmental Quality Act (CEQA) as they do not have the potential for resulting in either a direct physical change to the environment or a reasonably foreseeable indirect physical change in the environment. No further action is required under CEQA for City Council action.
ALTERNATIVES:
The following alternatives are provided for City Council consideration:
1. Adopt the Resolution;
2. Modify the Resolution to institute a larger fee increase and adopt;
RESOLUTION NO. 2025-5072
RESOLUTION OF THE CITY COUNCIL OF THE CITY OF KING
APPROVING AIRPORT T-HANGAR LEASE AND EXECUTIVE HANGAR LAND LEASE

WHEREAS, the City Council desires to apply an increase of 15% to monthly airport Thangar rentals and executive and portable hangar land leases to maintain appropriate cost recovery and market rate leases.

RE: CONSIDERATION OF NEW AMENDED AIRPORT HANGAR
GROUND LEASE
RECOMMENDATION:
It is recommended the City Council: 1) approve a new amended ground lease with Chris Madson for Executive Hangar Lease Space #3; and 2) authorize the City Manager to execute the lease and make any non-substantive changes necessary as approved to form by the City Attorney.
BACKGROUND:
The City has leased a number of spaces at the Mesa Del Rey Airport. At the August 14, 2018 meeting, the City Council approved new updated ground lease documents for existing portable and executive hangar spaces, which had all expired approximately 10 prior to that. Executive Hangar Space #3 was leased by Meyers Tomatoes, Inc. at that time. At their request, the City Council approved a transfer of the lease to Chris Madson at the October 9, 2018 meeting. Mr. Madson subsequently proposed to make improvements to the hangar and requested a longer term lease to ensure he was provided enough time to justify the investment he was proposing to make, which was approved by City Council at the February 26, 2019 meeting.
The lease approved had a 5-year term, which has now converted to a month-tomonth lease. Mr. Madson is again proposing to make improvements and has requested a longer lease for the same purposes.

REPORT TO THE CITY COUNCIL
DATE: DECEMBER 9, 2025
TO: HONORABLE MAYOR AND MEMBERS OF THE CITY COUNCIL
FROM: STEVEN ADAMS, CITY MANAGER
RE: CONSIDERATION OF FIRST TEE MONTEREY COUNTY GOLF
COURSE OPERATOR AGREEMENT
RECOMMENDATION:
It is recommended the City Council: 1) approve and authorize the City Manager to execute a new Golf Course Operator Agreement with First Tee Monterey County (“First Tee”) contingent upon FEMA obligation of funding for the restoration project; 2) authorize the City Manager to make non-substantive changes to the agreement as necessary in a form approved by the City Attorney; and 3) authorize First Tee to temporarily close the King City Golf Course at any point prior to construction if necessary to achieve cost savings and prepare for the construction process.
BACKGROUND:
At the October 11, 2022 meeting, the City Council approved an agreement with First Tee to operate the King City Golf Course. Storms that occurred during the period of December 27, 2022 through January 31, 2023 caused the San Lorenzo Creek to severely flood the golf course. The flood damaged 6 holes on the course by washing away various features and depositing sediment, pollutants and invasive plants that have or will kill the turf. Several amendments to the agreement have been approved since that time to address impacts of the storm damage on the Golf Course operations. The most recent amendment approved at the June 10, 2025 meeting extended a $15,000 per month City subsidy for the operation through the end of August.
Staff have been working on a project to restore the Golf Course. Work to be done shall include demolition, removal, offsite disposal, grading, compaction, repair, and/or construction of fairways, greens, tee boxes, irrigation, golf cart paths, concrete sidewalks, and ramps at the King City Golf Course.

were also damaged which are proposed to be replaced. Significant delays have been experienced due to the FEMA reimbursement process. The delays are largely the result of bids received that are well above the cost estimate for the project.
Due to the City’s budget constraints, the City Council approved conditions for continuing with the project during the Budget Study Session. The conditions included financial participation in the project costs by First Tee and ending ongoing City subsidies. At the August 26th meeting, City Council provided direction to staff on proposed strategies to move forward with the project, which included the following:
• FEMA approval of the allocation of the full cost of the project. • First Tee or establishment of a local non-profit agency partnering with First Tee to provide $175,000 of the total estimated $550,000 local matching funds for the project construction costs.
• First Tee or establishment of a local non-profit agency partnering with First Tee to provide: 1) a line of credit at 0% interest; or 2) payment of the interest costs of a short-term low interest government assistance loan. • No further City subsidies after January 1, 2026.
FEMA has now approved the new cost estimate for the project, which represents the most significant hurdle in obtaining the allocation. As a result, staff are now presenting an amendment to the existing agreement through the end of the year and a new First Tee agreement effective January 1, 2026 for consideration.
DISCUSSION:
The proposed amendment and agreement meet the conditions and terms set forth by the City Council at the Budget Study Session and August 26th meeting.
The proposed agreement includes the following provisions:
• The City agrees to extend the $15,000 monthly subsidy in the existing agreement through the end of December 2025. This is equal to the amount approved in the FY 2025-26 Biennial Budget. The City will not be responsible for any operational costs after that period in the new agreement. • First Tee will pay $175,000 toward the local match portion of the renovation improvements. Two payments will be made, one at the time the City

executes a contract for construction and the remainder at the completion of the project.
• First Tee will reimburse the City for any interest incurred for a loan needed during construction to make payments while waiting for FEMA reimbursement up to $50,000. Staff are now less concerned that the reimbursements may be delayed long enough to cause a problem based on feedback from the City’s consultants, so staff believe $50,000 will be sufficient for a worst-case scenario.
• The term of the agreement will be 15 years with one 5-year extension. • The City may terminate the agreement with 30 days written notice if the FEMA or State OES funding is substantially reduced, eliminated or delayed.
The funding has not yet been obligated by FEMA, but they have approved the budget amount. Therefore, the City’s consultants have recommended it is safe to proceed. However, no construction costs will be incurred until the funding is obligated.
• First Tee may terminate the agreement with 12 months notice after the first 4 years of the agreement, which guarantees their commitment to operate the Golf Course for a minimum of 5 years.
• The City will pay an additional $60,000 in subsidies to First Tee, which extends the monthly $15,000 for the period of September 1, 2025 to December 31, 2025. The City will be responsible for no additional subsidies after that time.
The proposed terms were approved by the First Tee Board of Directors at their meeting on December 2nd. They originally requested a commitment by the City to negotiate additional subsidies if the project is delayed past spring 2026. To address this issue, it was agreed to delay execution of the agreement until obligation of the funds is approved by FEMA. Therefore, the item can be revisited once it is determined whether it is an actual issue. Staff are hopeful the project will be under way by spring 2026.
Under the proposed terms, First Tee will be required to absorb the entire amount of any loss incurred after January 1, 2026 while the Golf Course remains only partially operational. As a result, First Tee has requested the ability to temporarily close the Golf Course prior to construction if it is determined necessary to reduce the subsidy amount.

During the twelve (12) month transition period, Operator shall continue to operate the Golf Course in the ordinary course and shall assist the City, at no additional cost, in facilitating either: (a) a request for proposals (RFP) process to identify a new operator, or (b) the assignment of this Agreement to another nonprofit entity approved by the City, provided such successor operator will continue to operate the Golf Course in a manner consistent with the mission and public purpose set forth herein. Upon the effective date of termination, Operator shall deliver to the City all keys, access devices, operational records, and any other property or materials belonging to the City and shall cooperate as reasonably necessary to ensure a seamless transfer of management and operations.

Item No. 11 (B)
REPORT TO THE CITY COUNCIL
DATE: DECEMBER 9, 2025
TO: HONORABLE MAYOR AND MEMBERS OF THE CITY COUNCIL
FROM: STEVEN ADAMS, CITY MANAGER
RE: CONSIDERATION OF EMERGENCY OPERATIONS PLAN
UPDATE
RECOMMENDATION:
It is recommended the City Council adopt a Resolution approving a new City Emergency Operations Plan for the City.
BACKGROUND:
The City’s current Emergency Operations Plan was adopted in 2016 and is in need of updating. Staff have developed an Emergency Preparedness Planning Committee that has been meeting on a regular basis to improve the City’s planning and coordination for major disaster incidents. The Committee is chaired by the City Manager and includes representatives from City staff and outside coordinating agencies. As part of these efforts, the City has contracted with a professional consultant to assist in updating Emergency Operations Plan, which has been completed.
An Emergency Operations Plan is important to serve as guideline for coordinating City resources in the event of a disaster. It is required by both the State and Federal Government to be in place to qualify for reimbursement of costs by the Federal Emergency Management Agency (FEMA) for response and damage associated with a declared disaster. Most importantly, in the event of a major disaster, the City’s resources will be quickly depleted and outside resources will be needed. An Emergency Operation Plan sets forth a standard incident command structure utilized by all other agencies throughout the United States. As a result, the system includes procedures for deploying resources and for personnel to understand their basic functions no matter where they are assigned.
CITY COUNCIL
CONSIDERATION OF EMERGENCY OPERATIONS PLAN UPDATE
DECEMBER 9, 2025
PAGE 2 OF 3
DISCUSSION:
The proposed plan is compliant with both the Standardized Emergency Management System (SEMS) and the National Incident Management System (NIMS). SEMS is the cornerstone of California’s emergency response system and the fundamental structure for the response phase of emergency management. The system unifies all elements of California’s emergency management community into a single integrated system and standardizes key elements. NIMS is the national equivalent to SEMS and is applicable at all jurisdictional levels and across functional disciplines. It is intended to improve coordination and cooperation between public and private entities in a variety of incident management activities and to provide a common standard for overall incident management.
The proposed Emergency Operations Plan institutes the basic incident command structure set forth by SEMS and NIMS. The City Manager serves as the Director of Emergency Services. There are four Sections, including Operations, Planning & Intelligence, Logistics, and Finance. Within the Operations Section, there are four branches, including Law, Fire and Medical, Public Works, and Care & Shelter.
The Police Station Training Room serves as the City’s Emergency Operations Center (EOC). Arrangements have been made for the Salinas Valley Fairgrounds and Chalone Peaks Middle School to serve as primary and secondary evacuation sites. Representatives from both school districts, Cal Water and Mee Memorial Hospital have all agreed to assign representatives to the City’s EOC in the event of a disaster. During an emergency, the County will coordinate requests and deployment of resource assistance.
Emergency contact information for City staff, outside agencies and private vendors is included in the Emergency Operations Plan as appendices. However, they are not attached to the public copy given that they include confidential information.
The City’s Emergency Preparedness Team have conducted training and workshops over the past few months to prepare for and test the draft Emergency Operations Plan Update. The City’s consultant, Russ Patterson, provided a training session on the existing plan to the City Council several years ago. He will present an overview of the proposed Emergency Operations Plan Update at the December 9th City Council meeting, as well as a brief refresher of the training information.

3 LETTER OF PROMULGATION
Letter of Promulgation
The preservation of life, environment, and property is an inherent responsibility of the local, state, and federal governments. King City has prepared this emergency operations plan to ensure the most effective and economical allocation of resources for the maximum benefit and protection of the community in times of emergency.
While no plan can completely prevent death and destruction, good plans carried out by knowledgeable and well-trained personnel can and will minimize losses. This plan establishes the emergency organization, assigns tasks, specifies policies and general procedures, and provides for coordination of planning efforts of the various emergency staff and service elements utilizing the Standardized Emergency Management System (SEMS). The plan also meets requirements established by the National Incident Management System (NIMS).
The objective of this plan is to integrate and coordinate all City agencies and personnel into an efficient organization capable of responding to any emergency.
This emergency operations plan is an extension of the California Emergency Plan. It will be reviewed, exercised periodically, and revised as necessary to meet changing conditions.
The City Council gives its full support to this plan and urges all officials, employees, and citizens, individually and collectively, to do their share in the total emergency effort of King City.
Concurrence of this promulgation letter constitutes the adoption of the Standardized Emergency Management System and the National Incident Management System by King City. This emergency operations plan will take effect upon approval by the City Council.

5 INTRODUCTION
The Emergency Operations Plan (EOP) for the City of King outlines authorities, organizational structures, and procedures used to coordinate activities related to local and regional emergencies or disasters.
The City and its surrounding region are susceptible to various hazards, including natural disasters, human-caused events, technological failures, and pandemics. While the risk profiles for these hazards are regularly quantified and assessed in related documents, the EOP utilizes an “allhazards” approach to ensure the City can prepare for, respond to, recover from, and mitigate against all potential hazards and critical incidents.
PLAN DESIGN
This City Emergency Operations Plan (EOP) outlines how King City complies with and implements the requirements of the California Emergency Services Act (ESA) to protect the lives and property of the community.
The EOP is organized as follows:
• Section 1 - Basic Plan: includes planning assumptions, policies, and concept of operations for emergency management.
• Section 2 - Emergency Operations Center: includes pertinent information on how the EOC operates.
• Section 3 - EOC Checklists: includes detailed information on the specific EOC functions. • Appendices: Specific and Confidential emergency plan information. • Annexes: Additional plans and documents.
PURPOSE
The primary purpose of the EOP is to outline the City’s framework for managing preparedness, response, recovery, and mitigation activities, inclusive of City departments, personnel, and elected officials, by:
• Serving as a foundationaldocumentunderwhichadditionaloperationalandtacticalannexes, appendices, and plans can be attached.
• Codifying the City’s understanding and adoption of state and federal response constructs through which operational coordination, mutual aid, and other requests for support will be integrated.
• Demonstrating compliance with State and federal laws and regulations, such as the California Emergency Services Act.
King City
Emergency Operations Plan Section I: Basic Plan

6 SCOPE
The EOP serves as the foundational element of the City’s approach to emergency management.
While all City resources may be called upon as needed, specific departmental responsibilities are outlined in the EOP Basic Plan and associated annexes. To ensure the City is adequately prepared, all City departments are required to actively participate in preparedness and planning activities, including developing departmental plans, policies, and procedures as necessary to fulfill their assigned roles and obligations.
The EOP adopts the "Whole Community" approach to emergency management, recognizing the roles of special districts, non-governmental organizations (NGOs), community-based organizations (CBOs), faith-based organizations (FBOs), private-sector businesses, educational institutions, and other stakeholders, in addition to City resources. Additionally, the EOP is designed to encompass the diverse range of support that may be required by residents, visitors, and businesses, including individuals with disabilities and those with access or functional needs.
LIMITATIONS
While many of the organizational and operational constructs outlined in the EOP are designed for flexibility and can be utilized as needed to address various emergency and non-emergency events, some activities require special activation or a formal disaster declaration by the City Manager.
Similarly,the EOP is not meantto outline procedures for routine incidents or minor emergencies that are adequately addressed through existing processes.
The EOP identifies operational strategies and plans for managing inherently complex and potentially catastrophic events. As such, City assets, resources, and departments are potentially vulnerable and may become overwhelmed. Deviations from the organizational and response structures outlined in the EOP may be required based upon evolving needs and available resources. With this in mind, the EOP was designed to promote flexibility whenever possible and is not intended to limit the use of sound judgment and common sense in matters not foreseen or adequately addressed by elements ofthe EOPand its associated appendices, annexes,or plans.
LOCATION AND BACKGROUND
King City is the southernmost city in Monterey County, located along the Salinas River and US Highway 101, and just south of Greenfield in the heart of the Salinas Valley. King City is 3.8 square miles in size and is situated in the center of one of the world's most productive agricultural valleys.
The City is also the primary access portal to the Pinnacles National Park, located a short drive to the east of the City. The Climate is semi-arid, although bordering on a Mediterranean climate, with very warm, mostly dry summers and cool, wet winters.
The location of King City on the banks of the Salinas River was part of the vast San Lorenzo Rancho.
This huge Spanish land grant once extended from the Salinas River to the San Benito River, from San Lorenzo on the south to San Juan on the north. Original grantees were Feliciana Soberanes, who received five leagues in 1841, and Francisco Rico, who was granted five leagues in 1842. When Charles King, founder of King City, first saw the Salinas Valley, it was a dry, windswept expanse of sand.
The Salinas River ran bank to bank in wet years, a raging torrent in the winter. But in the summer, the river went underground, leaving only a skeletal course of rock and sand the length of the Valley.

7 In 1884, King purchased 13,000 acres of the San Lorenzo grant to grow wheat. He established ranch headquarters at what is now the Spreckels Ranch, located north of the city. His first project was to plant 6,000 acres of wheat. King’s neighbors told him that wheat would never grow, and the only transportation available was by mule to Monterey, where it was transferred to sailing ships. But King has a plan. His wheat crops were bountiful, and some farmers wanted to lease land from the King to grow wheat. Railroad interests took note. Southern Pacific had extended its line to Soledad, and Collis P. Huntington, the renowned railroad magnet, became interested in pushing the tracks further south in quest of King’s wheat. In 1886, the tracks of the Southern Pacific Railroad reached King’s ranch buildings, and the Southern Pacific Milling Company put up a warehouse. Shortly after, a flour mill was erected adjacent to the warehouse, and “King’s Station” began to function as a commercial entity.
In 1887, the first subdivision was built. This laid out a town bounded by San Lorenzo Avenue on the west, by the railroad on the east, by Ellis Street to the north, and Pearl Street to the south. In 1895, the area north, west, and south of King’s Station was subdivided and new streets added. In 1897, King sold his extensive holdings to the Spreckels Sugar Co. Irrigation brought life to the Salinas Valley, transforming the area into lush green acres of row crops. King City was incorporated in 1911.
PLANNING ASSUMPTIONS
The following assumptions were used during the development of the EOP:
• The City of King is susceptible to several hazards that may result in critical incidents. • Protection of lives, property, and the environment is the responsibility of local government. • Although not fully quantified, climate change is a contributing factor to several potential hazards.
• Critical incidents include a variety of natural,technological, or man-made emergencies and disasters.
• Some critical incidents will provide advanced warning, while others will occur suddenly. • All departments will participate in planning and preparedness activities, as required. • Personnel will be adequately trained to perform the roles in which they are assigned. • The EOC will be partially or fully activated to support operations during significant critical incidents or when deemed necessary to manage a pre-planned large-scale event or incident. City personnel may be unable or unavailable to report to work or as assigned. • Non-essential operations may be reduced or cancelled to prioritize resources for other needs.
• Mutual aid and other assistance will be requested when City resources are inadequate. • Outside assistance and support may be unavailable for extended periods of time. • Communications equipment and infrastructure may be damaged or disrupted. • Infrastructure may be damaged or disrupted, and access to critical facilities may be blocked.
• Critical infrastructure and utilities such as natural gas, water, and electricity may be severely impacted.

8 • Residents may need to be self-sufficient for one week or more. • Additional planning, resources, and support will be needed to support people with disabilities andothers with access and functional needs.
RESPONSE LEVELS
Response Levels are used to describe the type of event. The area(s) affected and extent of coordination or assistance needed, and degree of participation expected from the City are:
Response Level 1 – Major Disaster
City and other local resources are overwhelmed, and the City declares a State of Emergency because extensive outside resources are required. A Local Emergency and a State of Emergency are proclaimed, and a Presidential Declaration is requested. The emergency operation is centralized. The EOC is activated, and all coordination and direction activities are done from there. There may be several incidents, and the managers of each incident would, as much as possible, report to and receive direction from the EOC. During war, a Statewide Emergency Management System will be fully activated, and the State will coordinate emergency operations from Sacramento.
Response Level 2 – Local Disaster
Local resources are insufficient, and mutual aid may be necessary on a regional or even statewide basis. A Local Emergency is proclaimed, and a State of Emergency might be declared. Several departments, as well as other jurisdictional agencies, need close coordination.
The Emergency Operations Center is activated to coordinate emergency response. EOC activities may include, but are not limited to:
• Establishing a City-wide situation assessment function. • Establishing a City-wide public information function. • Determining resource requirements for the affected area and coordinating resource requests.
• Establishing and coordinating the logistical systems necessary to support multi-incident management.
• Establishing priorities for resource allocation.
Direction is decentralized: Incident Command Systems are established and continue to report through agency dispatch centers. Agency dispatch centers or liaison personnel provide information to the Emergency Operations Center.
Response Level 3 – Local Emergency
This type of situation is typically managed from a command post at the scene. Local resources are adequate and available; a local emergency is declared. Both coordination and direction are centralized: the Emergency Operations Center is not activated, and public safety personnel provide necessary support, as established by agreements and ordinances. Police, fire, and other responders coordinate through established telephone systems, radio networks, and dispatch centers.

10 PHASES OF EMERGENCY MANAGEMENT
The City actively maintains a program to promote,
coordinate, and advance the four phases of emergency
management: preparedness, response, recovery, and
mitigation. The City Manager is the statutory director of the emergency management program, and the Office of
Emergency Services has been delegated the
responsibility to coordinate these activities.
While the four phases of emergency management
demonstrate the typical evolution of activities related to a specific hazard, they are not necessarily dependent
upon each other and often overlap or are conducted
concurrently to address several different hazards.
Preparedness
The Preparedness Phase encompasses activities undertaken before an emergency to enhance the City’s ability to coordinate, respond to, and recover from a critical incident. These activities focus on maintaining or improving capabilities that will be used in the response or recovery phases. The City’s preparedness activities emphasize emergency planning and training as well as public education and outreach. The City also conducts regular drills and exercises to validate ongoing activities, identify areas for improvement, and prioritize or justify future efforts and funding.
In recognition of the numerous and diverse potential hazards facing the region, the City has adopted an “all-hazards” approach to planning and preparedness. While not restricting the development of specialty or tactical plans, this model focuses on developing core capabilities that enable the full spectrum of potential hazards and critical incidents to be addressed.
Planning
Emergency planning encompasses a range of plans at the strategic, operational, and tactical levels.
Strategic plans encompass the EOP and many of its associated hazard-specific or functional annexes. In contrast, operational and tactical planning involves more granular information, including standard operating procedures (SOPs), checklists, personnel assignments, notification rosters, and resource lists. All City departments are required to participate in the development of relevant strategic and operational plans while ensuring that internal tactical planning is sufficient to meet the needs of their outlined roles and assigned objectives. The City Manager will conduct a thorough review of the plan as needed. Updates shall be distributed when there are significant changes.
Training
Training is a vital component of preparedness and significantly impacts the City’s ability to respond to and recover from a critical incident. City Departments may offer internal training and pursue additional local, state, and federal training opportunities. The City actively oversees training activities and allocates funding based on changing needs, personnel turnover, and course availability. Furthermore, the City consistently prioritizes training that enhances staff understanding and familiarity with the following concepts:

Emergency Operations Plan Section I: Basic Plan
December 2025
11 • Incident Command System (ICS)
• California Standardized Emergency Management System (SEMS) • National Incident Management System (NIMS)
• California Disaster Service Worker (DSW)
Exercises
Exercises are the primary tool for assessing preparedness activities and identifying areas for improvement, while allowing personnel at all levels to simulate theirresponse and recovery roles in a learning environment. The City follows the best practices of the Homeland Security Exercise and Evaluation Program (HSEEP), including the building block concept of seminars, small-scale tabletop exercises, functional exercises, and full-scale exercises.
The City employs a range of exercises to regularly assess critical capabilities and inform future planning and training needs. By simulating potential response or recovery scenarios, the City can validate existing plans and determine if and where additional training is required.
Awareness and Education
The City aims to raise public awareness and education to boost overall preparedness and resilience.
In partnership with organizations like the American Red Cross, it plans to provide community education, outreach, and training to enhance the ability of residents and groups to effectively prepare for and manage their own needs. By promoting self-reliance and individual readiness, the City reduces the pressure on limited resources and helps address competing needs during emergencies.
Response
The Response Phase encompasses any actions taken immediately before, during, or directly after a critical incident to minimize the potential or existing impacts of the incident.
Pre-Event Response
Some incidents, such as those related to severe weather, may provide sufficient warning to allow for pre-event or precautionary measures. Depending upon the probability and likelihood of significant impacts, pre-event response activities may include:
• Public Warning
• Evacuations
• Supply Distribution
• Resource Mobilization
• Staging
• Mutual Aid Requests
• Proclamation of a Local Emergency
Emergency Response
Emergency response activities are actions taken during, or in the immediate aftermath of, a critical incident to mitigate actual impacts. While these activities are most often associated with traditional response agencies, including law enforcement, fire protection, emergency medical services (EMS), King City
Emergency Operations Plan Section I: Basic Plan
December 2025
12 utilities, and public works, the size and complexity of an incident may require robust support from additional governmental agencies, NGOs, and other partners. As a result, comprehensive stakeholder participation during the development and socialization of relevant strategic, operational, and tactical plans can significantly enhance the efficiency and effectiveness of these emergency response activities.
When coordinating emergency response activities and addressing competing needs and objectives, the City utilizes the following prioritization hierarchy:
1) Support Life Safety
2) Protect Property
3) Reduce Impacts to the Environment
Emergency response may also include activities related to short-term recovery and often overlaps with long-term recovery operations.
Disaster Service Workers
Consistent with California Government Code Section 6, government employees (excluding noncitizens) are considered Disaster Service Workers (DSW). When a disaster occurs, each employee will be expected to perform specific duties to assist the community in returning to normal as soon as possible.
Recovery
The Recovery Phase encompasses both short- and long-term activities aimed at restoring the community to its pre-incident state. In some instances, when a state or federal disaster declaration has been made, recovery activities include the critical task of identifying, documenting, and quantifying response and recovery costs eligible for reimbursement.
Short-Term Recovery
Short-term recovery operations commence during the response phase and may include activities such as restoring essential services, expediting debris removal, and reestablishing city services.
Long-Term Recovery
Long-term recovery operations are often required to address extensive damage to infrastructure.
Activities include the restoration and reconstruction of public facilities, as well as the recovery of disaster response costs. Long-term recovery may also involve policy decisions, such as changes to zoning ordinances or permit processes, that support redevelopment and enhance economic and community resilience.
Disaster Assistance Programs
Disaster assistance programs may be available for the following:
• Individuals – May be eligible for loans and grants for housing assistance programs (for homeowners and renters), and uninsured disaster-related necessities (including personal property, medical, dental, and transportation expenses). Other programs, including crisis counseling, disaster unemployment assistance, and legal services, may be available.
Additionally, various NGOs, including the American Red Cross, Mennonite Disaster Services, King City
Emergency Operations Plan Section I: Basic Plan
December 2025
13 and the Salvation Army, provide recovery assistance to individuals, families, and community organizations, offering necessities such as shelter, clothing, and housing. • Businesses – May be eligible for low-interest loans to assist with uninsured damage through the U.S. Small Business Administration (SBA). Programs for agricultural assistance in the form of low-interest loans for economic losses may be available through the U.S. Department of Agriculture (USDA).
• Government – Assistance is available through state assistance under the California Disaster Assistance Act (CDAA), as well as several federal programs, including the Federal Emergency Management Agency (FEMA) Public Assistance (PA) Grant Program and the Hazard Mitigation Grant Program (HMGP).
• Non-profit organizations – Assistance is available through state assistance under the CDAA, as well as several federal programs, including the FEMA PA Grant Program for eligible nonprofit organizations.
Damage Assessment
Damage assessment activities involve identifying, recording, compiling, and analyzing damage to determine the type ofrecovery assistance needed. Following major disasters, a Preliminary Damage Assessment (PDA) is used to determine eligibility for state and federal financial assistance and reimbursement.
Recovery Documentation
Documentation is the key to recovering eligible emergency response and recovery costs. Damage assessment documentation will be critical in establishing the basis for eligibility for disaster assistance programs. Various state and federal assistance programs require different types of documentation for eligible costs. In addition to structural damage, these programs may also cover staff time, equipment, and materials utilized in response to the incident. To support the maximum recovery of eligible reimbursement, City departments and agencies must identify and support internal mechanisms for tracking and documenting appropriate costs.
Recovery Organization
With support and oversight from the City Council, the City Manager is responsible for overseeing and managing the City's overarching recovery activities. The Finance Department will manage activities specific to financial recovery. During the active response phase or the immediate aftermath of an emergency, short-term recovery activities should be coordinated at the EOC, if activated.Depending upon the size and impact of the event, significant support from other City departments may be required.
After Action Report
As part of the recovery phase, and in accordance with SEMS, the State of California requires any city and/or county declaring a local emergency for which the governor proclaims a State of Emergency to complete and transmit an After-Action report to the California Office of Emergency Services (Cal OES) within 90 days of the close of the incident period. The after-action report shall include and address, at a minimum:
• A review of response actions taken.
King City
Emergency Operations Plan Section I: Basic Plan
December 2025
14 • The application of SEMS.
• Suggested modifications to SEMS.
• Necessary modifications to plans and procedures.
• Identified training needs.
• Recovery activities to date.
Mitigation
The Mitigation Phase includes actions and measures taken to reduce or eliminate the degree of longterm risk from natural and technological hazards. Whereas preparedness activities increase the City’s ability to respond to the impacts of a hazard, mitigation activities reduce the potential for those impacts in the future, thereby reducing overall risk. Several mitigation activities are available and may include the implementation, augmentation, or promotion of the following:
• Building and Safety Codes • Public Outreach and Education • Disaster/Fire/Flood Insurance • Relocation
• Land Use Planning Management • Risk Mapping
• Hazard Research and Analysis • Safety Codes, Statutes, Ordinances • Land and Repetitive Loss Acquisition • Tax Incentives and Disincentives • Monitoring and Inspection • Seismic Strengthening or Retrofitting Multijurisdictional Hazard Mitigation Plan
The City actively participates in formal mitigation activities, including the development of the Monterey County Multijurisdictional Hazard Mitigation Plan. The City’s current mitigation strategy has been codified as an annex to the County plan.
Whole Community Approach
The City’s ability to respond to and recover from significant emergencies and major disasters is highly dependent on planning for the unique needs and specific requirements of the City’s residents, non-resident commuters, and visitors. To further identify and meet these needs, the City has adopted a “Whole Community” approach in which the inclusion and integration of community partners, neighbors, and other stakeholders is actively promoted in all phases of emergency management. Through these collaborative efforts, the City will become more resilient and better prepared to meet the needs of its residents and daytime populace alike, especially those with disabilities and others with access and functional needs.
Private Sector Coordination
King City is home to a diverse and vibrant business community. The City actively engages with theprivate sectortobetterunderstandtheir needs, identify resources, and develop partnerships. The City acknowledges this valuable support and will continue collaborative efforts with the private sector as an integral component of the City’s overarching emergency management program.

15 People with Disabilities
People with disabilities often require additional planning and support to ensure they receive equal access and coverage under emergency preparedness and response programs, as mandated by the Stafford Act and other relevant state and federal legislation, including the Americans with Disabilities Act (ADA) of 1990. Covered disabilities are not always apparent and may include impairments of mobility, vision, and hearing, as well as some cognitive disorders and mental illnesses.
The City has a diverse population representing a wide variety of people with disabilities. To meet the needs of these individuals, the City is committed to ongoing planning and preparedness activities designed to improve and validate capabilities in support of people with disabilities, including but not limited to:
• Notification and warning procedures.
• Evacuation, transportation, and sheltering considerations. • Accommodations for Service Animals.
• Accessibility to information.
In addition, the City looks to integrate people with disabilities and their advocates directly into preparedness activities such as plan development and review. These efforts have included targeted outreach to publicize the development of this EOP and solicit input and participation in the subsequent development and review of associated operational annexes and appendices.
Individuals with Access and Functional Needs
In addition to people with disabilities, the City recognizes that further support may also be needed forthose with access and functional needs. A significant segment of the City has access or functional needs that will need to be addressed to ensure equitable treatment. The City will make every effort to integrate the needs of the entire population, including those of individuals with Access and Functional Needs (AFN). AFN includes:
• Individuals who have limited English proficiency, or have limited ability to speak, see, hear, or understand.
• Individuals who may require specific medications, supplies, services, durable medical equipment, electricity for life-maintaining equipment, breastfeeding and infant/childcare, or nutrition.
• Individuals who function independently with assistance from mobility devices or assistive technology, vision and communication aids, or service animals. • Individuals who may need support and safety.
• Individuals who lack access to personal transportation are unable to drive due to decreased or impaired mobility that may come with age and/or disability, temporary conditions, injury, or legal restriction.
The City's disaster response goals and objectives will strive to consider the needs of the entire community, including children, individuals with disabilities, those with access and functional needs, and other members of the general population. The City will ensure that the American Red Crossestablished shelters meet the requirements of the Americans with Disabilities Act (ADA) of 1990.

16 The need to formally engage representatives from all cultural groups and people with access and functional needs has been starkly demonstrated as the nature and scope of disasters recently impacting the City, Monterey County, and the State of California have grown in intensity and severity year after year. For the City to be effective in addressing future disasters, it must integrate the needs of all the city’s diverse population to avoid disproportionate impacts on some of our most vulnerable communities. This EOP aims to incorporate mechanisms and processes that account for the City’s diverse population and access and functional needs in a meaningful and inclusive manner, ensuring all community members are disaster-ready and resilient, regardless of their circumstances.
Efforts are taken during the phases of emergency management to focus on the City’s diverse population and most vulnerable community members, including those with access and functional needs. Needs of the community considered include, but are not limited to, cultural competency in emergency communications, evacuation, shelter, mitigation, prevention, planning, and preparedness.
Considerations for Pets and Animals
As a result of national deficiencies in emergency planning uncovered in the aftermath of Hurricane Katrina, the federal government passed the Pets Evacuation and Transportation Standards (PETS) Act in 2006 as an amendment to the Stafford Act. Recognizing the unwillingness of many displaced individuals to take advantage of evacuation or shelter resources without accommodating their pets or companion animals, the PETS Act directs that state and local preparedness plans address the needs of individuals with pets and companion animals during disasters or emergencies.
The City works to include considerations for the needs of pets and companion animals in plans as appropriate. Furthermore, although not required under the PETS Act, additional resources for evacuating larger animals and livestock, such as horses, may be available through coordination and request with the Monterey County Department of Emergency Management.
CONCEPT OF OPERATIONS
In accordance with state and federal laws, the City has officially adopted and integrated the following emergency management, response, and coordination systems:
• The Incident Command System (ICS)
• The Standardized Emergency Management System (SEMS)
• The National Incident Management System (NIMS)
Together, these congruent operational systems outline how critical incidents, emergencies, and disasters will be coordinated at the local, county, regional, state, and federal levels.
Field Level Coordination: The Incident Command System (ICS) As mandated by both SEMS and NIMS, the City utilizes the ICS to manage response activities in the field. ICS provides for common terminology, processes, and position titles, while allowing the delegation of functions (or tasks) to subordinate positions to promote proper span of control and unity of command. ICS applies to any size incident and is designed to be expandable as the incident's needs expand or contract. When utilized, the standardization of ICS principles and nomenclature can integrate large numbers of personnel from disparate organizations.

17 Local, Regional, and State Level Coordination
As the cornerstone of California’s emergency response system, SEMS integrates the concepts and principles of both NIMS and ICS. Jurisdictions within the State are required to adopt its use, and the system unifies all elements of California’s emergency management community into a single integrated structure. SEMS ensures that local communities retain the authority and responsibility for managing and coordinating responses within their jurisdictions, while promoting situational awareness and facilitating the prioritization of resource requests.
The five SEMS coordination levels expand outward from the impacted area at the field level, with each successive level representing a larger geographic area. The five organizational levels include:
Field Response
Field response includes on-scene activities and coordination, consistent with ICS, and involves using an Incident Command Post (ICP). Depending on the incident, multiple ICPs may be set up at different locations within the affected area. Resource requests and situation reports are sent from the field to the next SEMS organizational level, either through participating response agencies or the Emergency Operations Center (EOC), if it is activated.
Local Government
Local governments, such as King City, hold the responsibility and authority for managing response activities within their respective areas. To support these efforts, local jurisdictions can activate their respective EOCs. Local EOCs facilitate agency coordination, provide logistical support, establish common operating pictures, define overall priorities, and allocate available resources. Additionally, local EOCs coordinate with the Operational Area (OA)/Monterey County Department of Emergency Management.
Operational Area
The OA provides coordination within the county and between all political subdivisions. The OA coordinates resource needs within the county’s geographic area through the County EOC, if activated. The OA also serves as a link to the regional level and all other OAs within the region. The City of King is part of the Monterey County OA and coordinates closely with the Monterey County Department of Emergency Management. The City participates in OA planning and, during a critical incident, coordinates with the OA through the Director of Emergency Services.
Regional
The State of California is divided into three regions that each maintain Regional Emergency Operations Centers (REOC) to coordinate resource requests, support mutual aid, and promote situational awareness between their respective OAs. King City and the Monterey County OA are within the Coastal Administration Region.
State
When required, California’s State Operations Center (SOC) is activated to facilitate state agency response, mobilize mutual aid, and coordinate with other regions, states, and the federal government. The SOC also serves as the liaison with the National Operations Center (NOC).
King City
Emergency Operations Plan Section I: Basic Plan
December 2025
18 Mutual Aid Regions
California is divided into six mutual aid regions to facilitate the coordination and flow of mutual aid requests. As part of the Coastal Administration Region, the Monterey County OA and the City are part of Mutual Aid Region II.
Mutual Aid Coordinators
Discipline-specific mutual aid systems work through designated mutual aid coordinators at the operational area, region, and state levels. The mutual aid coordinator receives mutual aid requests and coordinates the provision of resources within their geographic area of responsibility. All unfilled requests will be forwarded to the next higher level of government.
Mutual aid requests that do not fall into one of the discipline-specific mutual aid systems are handled through the emergency services mutual aid system and by emergency management staff at the local government, operational area, regional, and state levels. Depending upon the circumstances, mutual aid coordinators may operate from their existing department, an EOC, or other locations as required.
Figure 3: Discipline Specific Mutual Aid System

Emergency Operations Plan Section I: Basic Plan
December 2025
19 Federal Coordination: The National Incident Management System (NIMS)
NIMS provides a comprehensive national framework for incident management applicable at all jurisdictional levels and across all functional disciplines. Most NIMS requirements applicable to the City of King, including the adoption of ICS, are satisfied by the adoption of SEMS. Additional elements of NIMS outline coordination between federal agencies and the use of federal assets and resources.
The California Mutual Aid System operates within the framework of the California Disaster and Civil Defense Master Mutual Aid Agreement (MMAA). The California Emergency Services Act governs it.
The system enables the mobilization of resources to and from emergency response agencies, local governments, operational areas, regions, and the state, to provide requesting agencies with adequate resources. The general flow of mutual aid resource request systems within mutual aid is depicted in Figure 3, "Discipline-Specific Mutual Aid System." The California Mutual Aid System comprises several discipline-specific mutual aid systems, including fire and rescue, law enforcement, medical, building and safety, coroners, Emergency Management Mutual Aid (EMMA), and public works.
In addition to the California Mutual Aid System, the state participates in interstate mutual aid through the Emergency Management Assistance Compact (EMAC)
ALERT AND WARNING
Emergency Alert System (EAS)
The Emergency Alert System (EAS) is a public warning system used by federal, state, and local authorities to deliver emergency information and alerts to the public. This system leverages existing media resources, such as radio and TV, to communicate with residents during widespread emergencies.
National Warning System (NAWAS)
The National Warning System (NAWAS) is a dedicated wireline network that enables two-way voice communication between the federal warning center, state warning points, and local warning points.
If necessary, NAWAS is a nationwide system designed to broadcast warnings of an imminent attack across the country. National Weather Service (NWS)
National Weather Service
The National Weather Service (NWS) broadcasts continuous weather updates on 162.40, 162.475, and 162.55 MHz frequencies. Severe weather alerts are signaled by a 1,050 Hz tone that activates weather monitoring receivers with decoders.
Alert Monterey County
Alert Monterey County is the official emergency alert and warning system for the County of Monterey and its municipal jurisdictions. This system provides critical public safety information from local government and safety officials. Managed by the County of Monterey's Department of Emergency Management and operated by Public Safety Answering Points, Law Enforcement, Fire, Public Health, and Emergency Management agencies, Alert Monterey County allows signed-up users to receive King City
Emergency Operations Plan Section I: Basic Plan
December 2025
20 alerts via landline calls, cell phone text messages, pre-recorded verbal messages, and email. The system also supports telephone devices for the deaf. When a hazard notification is issued, individuals receive a message through their registered communication method.
Additional Emergency Alerts that may be received include:
• Wireless Emergency Alerts (WEA) - Push notification from a phone. • Emergency Alert System (EAS) - Broadcast through broadcast satellite providers, cable television systems, and wireless cable systems.
• NOAA Weather Radio (NWR) - Available through NOAA Radios. Residents of Monterey County can tune their NOAA radios to either Monterey (Frequency: 162.550 MHz) or Monterey Marine (Frequency: 162.450 MHz).
Community Notification and Crisis Communication
The City recognizes the importance of clearly sharing emergency information with residents and the public through multiple overlapping methods. In addition to the systems mentioned earlier, this includes using social media and various targeted outreach channels. The City monitors new options and technological advancements as they emerge to enhance the speed, efficiency, and overall reach of crisis communication, especially for people with disabilities and others with access or functional needs.
EMERGENCY PROCLAMATIONS
Local Proclamation
A local emergency may be proclaimed by the Director of Emergency Services or designee in accordance with the King City Municipal Code. The City Council must ratify the proclamation within seven days and must review the need to continue the local emergency every 60 days until a local emergency is terminated. A copy of the resolution must be provided to Cal OES through the Monterey County OA.
The proclamation of a local emergency provides the City with the legal authority to:
• Request the Governor to proclaim a state of emergency when, in the opinion of the director, the locally available resources are inadequate to cope with the emergency. • Promulgate or suspend orders and regulations to provide for the protection of life and property.
• Exercise full power to request mutual aid to any affected area, in accordance with local ordinances, resolutions, emergency plans, or agreements. • Request State agencies and other jurisdictions to provide mutual aid. • Require the emergency services of any City officer or employee. • Requisition necessary personnel and materials from any City department or agency • Obtain vital supplies, equipment, and, if required, commandeer the same for public use. • Conduct emergency operations with limited legal liability for performance, or failure of performance.
King City
Emergency Operations Plan Section I: Basic Plan
December 2025
21 Refer to Appendix 5 for a copy of a Sample Emergency Proclamation.
State of Emergency
After a proclamation of a local emergency, the governing body of the City, having determined that local resources are not sufficient to mitigate the situation, may request by letter or resolution that the Governor proclaim a state of emergency in the area to commit state resources fully, mutual aid assistance, and provide resources to assist local government. To support its request for a gubernatorial proclamation, it is essential that the City forward an estimate of damage and financial loss to Cal OES through the Monterey County OA as quickly as possible. Estimates of loss are an essential part of the criteria that Cal OES considers when deciding to proclaim a state of emergency and request a Presidential Declaration of Emergency or Disaster.
A copy of the request for a Governor’s proclamation, with the following supporting data, must be forwarded to the Monterey County OA for transmission to the Cal OES Director:
• Copy of the local emergency proclamation.
• Initial damage estimate summary that estimates the severity and extent of the damage.
Cal OES prepares a recommendation for the Governor, and if approved, prepares a proclamation.
The Governor may also proclaim a State of Emergency without a local request if:
• Conditions of extreme peril threaten the safety of persons and property in the state. • Emergency conditions are beyond the response capacity and capabilities of the local authorities.
State of War Emergency
In addition to a State of Emergency, the Governor can proclaim a State of War Emergency whenever the State or the nation is attacked by an enemy of the United States, or upon receipt by the State of a warning from the federal government indicating that such an enemy attack is probable or imminent.
The powers granted to the Governor under a State of War Emergency are the same as those given under a State of Emergency.
Presidential Declaration
Following the proclamation of a State of Emergency, the Cal OES Director may recommend that the Governor request a Presidential Declaration of a major disaster under the authority of Public Law 93- 288. The Governor’s request to the President is submitted through FEMA. Supplementary information, such as an Initial Damage Assessment, may be required to accompany the state and local proclamations.
Public Health Emergency
An outbreak of disease may require prompt action to prevent its spread, and in this sense, it may present an emergency for public health officials. However, as explained in the Health Officer’s Guide to Communicable Disease Control, no official needs to take political action in the form of a formal declaration of emergency for the local health officer to “take measures as may be necessary” to prevent the spread of the disease. The local health officer has the legal authority to do so when they have reason to believe that a case of disease has occurred in their jurisdiction. When emergencies arise that are of such magnitude that they exceed local resources or require the exercise of King City
Emergency Operations Plan Section I: Basic Plan
December 2025
22 extraordinary powers, a proclamation or declaration of emergency may be needed to address the situation.
Other Declarations, Powers, and Authorities
Other local, State, and federal authorities may have broad powers to restrict movement or impose other restrictions, such as quarantines, during unusual events, including public health emergencies.
HAZARD VULNERABILITY ASSESSMENTS & RISK ANALYSES
Hazard Risks
King City recognizes that the planning process must address each hazard that poses a threat to the City. The city is vulnerable to a wide range of threats. There are three broad categories of hazards:
natural, technological or human-caused, and national security.
The city, with its varied topography and mix of urban and semi-rural areas, is susceptible to a wide range of negative impacts from natural and technological hazards. The natural hazards and technological or man-made hazards that confront King City are as follows:
Natural Hazards
• Earthquakes
• Floods
• Wildland fires
• Extreme weather and storms
Technological and Human-Related Hazards
• Hazardous materials (HazMat)
• Major vehicle accident
• Airplane crash
• Civil disturbance
• Public Health
• Terrorism
The following Hazard Matrix outlines each of these hazards, identifying their likelihood of occurrence and severity.

Additional Information Regarding Hazards within the City Compared to most other communities, King City is situated in a relatively safe area with few hazards or constraints to urban development.
Earthquakes
There are no areas within King City known to be subject to seismic hazards, soil issues, or geologic failures. Additionally, there are no known geologic faults located within the planning area. However, the San Andreas Fault is situated east of the City, which could potentially cause damage to the surrounding areas.
Liquefaction is a condition that can occur when saturated soil areas are affected by seismic events, potentially causing significant damage to structural foundations. None of these soil types within King City is known to be prone to liquefaction, except for riverine soils along the Salinas River or San Lorenzo Creek.

GreatEarthquake 8 to 8+
Damage extends over a broad area,
depending on magnitude and other
factors.
Flood Hazards
In King City, the floodplains of San Lorenzo Creek and the Salinas River are the most vulnerable areas to significant hazards. The City and the County have regulated development within these floodplain zones for many years to prevent unsafe occupancy by residents or businesses. However, several structures still face potential damage from flooding. Past flood damages have affected the mobile home park on Division Street and the neighborhood on Villa Drive, despite the presence of protective dikes. Recovery and cleanup costs for the city’s nearby golf course, adjacent to San Lorenzo Creek, have also been very high.
Fire Hazards
Wildland fire hazards pose minimal risk to King City due to its location away from dense forests and chaparral. Industrial and commercial areas, especially those susceptible to new development, are often located far from residential neighborhoods. This land use separation helps prevent urban fires.
The City’s General Plan Safety Element offers more detailed strategies on fire hazard prevention and mitigation. Significant wildfire risk exists along the Salinas River bottom east of the city near the airport and west of the city near Pine Canyon. Wildfires are particularly hazardous during high winds, which are common in the valley, as they can carry embers into the city and threaten structures, especially those with shake roofs.
Hazardous Materials
Hazardous materials, which include products that are corrosive, ignitable, toxic, radioactive, flammable, explosive, or reactive, can pose risks within King City. These materials are either transported through or stored at commercial facilities in the city.
King City
Emergency Operations Plan Section I: Basic Plan
December 2025
25 Public Health Hazards
The city could be vulnerable to human health risks. A large outbreak, epidemic, pandemic, or the use of biological agents as weapons of mass destruction could cause severe harm to the population.
Although everyone is at risk of health hazards, the young, the elderly, those with weakened immune systems, and individuals with special needs are the most vulnerable. The introduction of diseases like influenza or COVID-19 has affected the entire city, especially its most vulnerable populations.
Severe Weather
Any severe weather event can impact the city. Vulnerable populations include the elderly, lowincome or linguistically isolated groups, people with life-threatening illnesses, and residents in areas disconnected from major roads. Properties in poor condition or in high-risk zones are more likely to be damaged. All critical facilities in the city are likely vulnerable to severe weather hazards. Common issues with severe weather include power outages and blocked road access. Extended periods of extreme heat may lead to power failures because of increased cooling demands.
Terrorism Event
According to the FEMA publication "Principal Threats Facing Communities and Local Emergency Management Coordinators," most terrorist activities involve bombing attacks. Principal targets include military personnel and facilities, commercial establishments, and federal government buildings and property. However, based on the events surrounding September 11, 2001, there is an increasing threat of WMD (Weapons of Mass Destruction) incidents, including Nuclear, Biological, and Chemical attacks against civilian targets.
AUTHORITIES AND REFERENCES
Emergency response, like all government actions, is based on legal authority. The King City EOP complies with local, state, and federal regulations and guidelines. Additionally, best practices and lessons learned have been incorporated into this plan wherever possible. These were identified during the review of after-action reports from recent national large-scale disasters, incidents, and events (including Robert T. Stafford Relief and Emergency Assistance Act, nonStafford Act, terrorist non-Stafford Act, and offshore non-Stafford Act incidents and events). The plan is promulgated under the authority of the City Manager and ratified by the City Council.

CONTINUITY OF GOVERNMENT
City Management
Continuity of Government (COG) is a critical aspect of emergency management and is essential during disasters. COG refers to the preservation, maintenance, or reestablishment of the civil government's ability to fulfill its constitutional duties. All levels of government have a constitutional duty to protect the lives and property of their citizens. The California Government Code, Section 16, and the Constitution of California grant the authority for state and local governments to reconstitute themselves if officials are unable to serve.
If the City Manager is unavailable, they are succeeded by an individual who is permanently appointed to the following positions in city government. The successor remains in the role until the City Council makes an appointment and the appointee takes office.
Table 3: Management Succession
Succession Position
First Alternate Position Name TBD
Second Alternate Position Name TBD
Third Alternate Position Name TBD
City Council
The California Government Code provides guidance for appointing Council members when all Council and Emergency Standby Council members are unavailable. For example, if only one member of the Council or the Emergency Standby Council is available, that person can reestablish the City Council. If all members of the Council and the Emergency Standby Council are unavailable, members of the City Council may be appointed by the Chair of the Monterey County Board of Supervisors, the Chair of a nearby County Board of Supervisors, or the mayor of a neighboring city, in that order.
Essential Facilities: Seat of Government
The Primary Seat of Government for the City of King is City Hall, located at 212 South Vanderhurst Ave., King City, CA 93930. If City Hall is no longer functional, an alternate seat of government will be established at the King City Fire Department, located at 422 Bassett Street, King City, CA 93930.
King City
Emergency Operations Plan Section I: Basic Plan
December 2025
30 Preservation of Vital Records
City leadership must have certain vital records during a disaster. Protecting and accessing these records requires proper planning. The City Clerk of King City oversees these efforts. Vital Records are essential documents needed to carry out the missions of City departments and agencies during and after a disaster. These records help ensure services are provided to both internal City departments and external stakeholders, including citizens, contractors, and other government entities.
Example documents may include:
• Public Records
• Computer system back-ups/servers
• Order of Succession Ordinances or Resolutions
• Plans, policies, and procedures for critical processes • Payroll information
• Contracts and leases
• Legal and financial records
• Insurance documents
• Disaster Records, which have particular maintenance requirements Each City department is responsible for identifying vital records and assigning responsibility for preservation.

33 The King City EOC provides a centralized location where emergency management coordination and decision-making can be supported during critical incidents, major emergencies, or disasters. When activated, the EOC provides support for several critical tasks related to communications, coordination, resource management, and executive leadership.
PRIMARY AND ALTERNATE EOC LOCATIONS
The primary EOC for King City is located in the Briefing Room of the Police Department at 415 Bassett Street. If the primary EOC site is threatened, inoperable, or inaccessible, the Day Room of the King City Fire Department, located at 422 Bassett Street, will be used as an alternate EOC. All City departments and personnel should be prepared for the possibility of sudden relocation to this alternate EOC or similar facility.
EOC ACTIVATION AND DEACTIVATION
Activation of King City EOC means that at least one City official implements SEMS as appropriate to the scope of the emergency and the City’s role in response to the emergency. The City EOC is activated when routine use of resources needs support and/or augmentation. The official implementing SEMS may operate from the EOC or from other locations, depending on the situation.
The EOC may be partially or fully staffed to meet the demands of the situation. However, depending upon the need and circumstances, an official EOC activation may be appropriate to support several activities, including:
• Field response
• Pre-planned events
• Local Proclamations of Emergency
EOC Activation Levels
The magnitude of an emergency dictates the response level and is scalable based on the changing needs of the event. Figure E-1: EOC Activation Levels below outlines activation levels used by the City and their associated staffing requirements.
Refer to Figure 4: EOC Activation Guide on the following page.

36 Policy Group
During a critical incident or event, the City Council, including the Mayor and Mayor Pro Tem, serves as a policy group in support of the City and the EOC if activated. The role of the Policy Group includes:
• Ratifying or proclaiming a local emergency and making other executive-level policy decisions as necessary and required to support emergency response and recovery. • Reassuring residents, community organizations, and local businesses that the City is actively responding to the situation and that it is working on recovery. • Coordinating legislative action and serving as liaisons with VIP’s and outside government officials.
The Council will receive regular situational briefings from the Director of Emergency Services or their designee, as well as advice from the City Attorney (Legal Officer) and other emergency management staff to help fulfill these critical responsibilities.
Requirements for Public Meetings (The Brown Act)
The Brown Act governs meeting access for local public bodies with the intent that legislative body actions be taken openly and that their deliberations be conducted openly. The Brown Act cannot be suspended by a local proclamation of emergency or by any other legislation; however, it does provide some flexibility with the noticing and agenda requirements in “emergencies”, such as the following:
• In cases of “emergency,” the City Council may hold an emergency meeting without complying with the 24-hour notice requirement and/or posting requirement ordinarily necessary prior to the Council holding a special meeting. A telephone notice must be given to the media at least one hour before the start of the emergency meeting.
• In cases of “dire emergency,” the one-hour notice of the meeting provided to the media can occur at the same time the presiding officer or designee is notifying the members of the City Council about the dire emergency meeting. In situations where the telephone service is not working, the notice requirements shall be deemed waived. The City Council or its designee shall notify the media of the emergency meeting, its purpose, and any actions taken at the meeting as soon as possible after the meeting has concluded. • Where the City Council has conducted an emergency meeting or a dire emergency meeting pursuant to Government Code 54956.5(e), the City must post minutes of the meeting, a list of persons notified or attempted to be notified before the meeting, the actions taken by the Council and roll call vote, and any actions taken at the meeting shall be posted for a minimum of 10 days in a public place as soon after the meeting as possible.

As a point of reference, evacuation is the assisted removal of people before a threat arrives, whereas rescue is the process of removing persons once the dangeris uponthem. Ensure that field personnel are checking for downed power lines and inform PG&E immediately to prevent electrocution hazards.
Coordinate with PG&E to share information concerning power outages. Creeks and rivers can be an attractive nuisance to people, especially when heavy rains increase water levels and turn them into raging currents. Working through field personnel, ensure these areas are kept clear.
Floodwaters may carry additional health and safety risks, including bacteria, raw sewage, or hazardous substances. Sandbags tend to act as sponges for these hidden dangers, so ensure precautions are taken when handling them or coming into contact with the water itself.
Ensure that field personnel monitor potable water treatment facility tanks and wastewater treatment plant storage facilities for signs of inundation or overflow. Coordinate with schools, daycare centers, hospitals, and other relevant organizations about proper precautions and emergency actions related to the storm. Determine the availability of shelters through theAmerican Red Cross. Coordinate with theRed Cross, other public agencies, and/or non-profit agencies for shelter operations.

Incident Command System (ICS) Structure
Figure 7: The Incident Command System
General ICS Information
The Incident Command System is used to manage both emergency incidents and non-emergency events. It can be used for both small and large situations.
The system has considerable internal flexibility. It can grow or shrink to meet differing needs. This makes it a very cost-effective and efficient management system.
King City
Emergency Operations Plan Annex C – The Incident Command System December 2025
188
Applications for the Use of the Incident Command System • Fires, HAZMAT, and multi-casualty incidents
• Multi-jurisdictional and multi-agency disasters
• Wide-area search and rescue missions
• Pest eradication programs
• Single and multi-agency law enforcement incidents
• Air, rail, or ground transportation accidents
• Planned events such as celebrations, concerts, parades • Private sector emergency management programs
• State or local central natural hazard management
• Water and wastewater system emergency incidents
ICS Organization
The organization of the Incident Command System is built around the same five major management activities as SEMS. These five management activities form the foundation upon which incident management is built. They apply whether handling a routine emergency, organizing a significant event, or managing a major response to a disaster.
Command Section
Sets objectives and priorities. Has overall responsibility for the incident. Incident Commander The person in charge of the incident must be fully qualified to manage the incident. As incidents grow in size or become more complex, a more highly qualified person may be assigned as IC by the responsible jurisdiction or agency.
Public Information Officer
The point of contact for the media or other organizations seeking information directly from the incident or event.
Safety Officer
Monitors safety conditions and develops measures for assuring the safety of all assigned personnel.
Liaison Officer
In the event of larger incidents or emergencies, representatives from other agencies may be assigned to the scene to coordinate their agency's involvement. The Liaison Officer will be their primary contact.
Operations Section
Conducts tactical operations to carry out the plan. Develops the tactical objectives, organization, and directs all resources.
King City
Emergency Operations Plan Annex C – The Incident Command System December 2025
189
Divisions
Established to divide an incident geographically or describe some geographical area related to incident operations.
Groups
Established to describe functional areas of operation. What is based will be determined by the needs of the incident. Groups work wherever they are needed, and are not assigned to any single division.
Divisions and Groups are at an equal level in the organization.
Branches
Established another level of organization within the Operations Section to increase the span of control, define another functional structure, or organize the incident around jurisdictional lines.
Air Operations
Operated at the branch level and established separately at an incident where there are complex needs for the use of aircraft in both tactical and logistical operations.
Staging Areas
Established wherever necessary to temporarily locate resources awaiting assignment. Planning and Intelligence
Develops the action plan to accomplish the objectives. Collects and evaluates information.
Maintains resource status.
Logistics
Provides support to meet incident needs. Provides resources and all other necessary services to support incident response.
Finance and Administration
Monitors costs related to the incident. Provides accounting, procurement, time recording, and cost analyses.
Units
Functional Units fall under each of the three remaining sections (see ICS Structure Chart). Not all units may be required, and they will be established as needed. The titles of the units are selfdescriptive.
Incident Facilities
Facilities will be established depending on the kind and complexity of the incident or event. Not all facilities will necessarily be used.
Incident Command Post (ICP)
The location from which the incident Commander oversees all incident operations. There is only one ICP for each incident or event. Every incident or event must have some form of ICP.
King City
Emergency Operations Plan Annex C – The Incident Command System December 2025
190
Staging Area
Locations at which resources are kept while awaiting incident assignment. Base The location of the incident at which primary service and support activities are performed. Camps Incident locations where resources may be kept to support incident operations. Camps differ from staging areas in that essential support operations are done at camps, and resources at camps are not always immediately available.
Helibase
A location in and around an incident area at which helicopters may be parked, maintained, fueled, and equipped for incident operations.
Helispot
Temporary locations where helicopters can land and load/off-load personnel, equipment, and supplies.
Incident Action Plan
Every incident must have an oral or written action plan in place. The purpose of the plan is to provide all incident supervisory personnel with direction for future actions. Action plans, which include the measurable tactical operations to be achieved, are always prepared around a time frame called an Operational Period.
Operational Periods can be of various lengths, but should not exceed 24 hours. The planning of an operational period must be done far enough in advance to ensure that the requested resources are available when it begins.
The Incident Action Plan must be known to all incident supervisory personnel. This can be achieved through briefings, by distributing a written plan before the start of the Operational Period, or by using both methods.
Essential Incident Action Plan Elements
Statement of Objectives - Appropriate to the overall incident.
Organization - Describes what parts of the ICS organization will be in place for each Operational Period.
Assignments to Accomplish Objectives - These are generally prepared for each Division or Group and include the strategy, tactics, and resources to be used.
Supporting Material - Examples can include maps of the incident, a communications plan, a medical plan, a traffic plan, etc.

Item No. 11 (C)
REPORT TO THE CITY COUNCIL
DATE: DECEMBER 9, 2025
TO: HONORABLE MAYOR AND MEMBERS OF THE CITY COUNCIL
FROM: STEVEN ADAMS, CITY MANAGER
RE: CONSIDERATION OF COMPREHENSIVE PLAN TO END YOUTH
VIOLENCE PHASE II
RECOMMENDATION:
It is recommended the City Council adopt a Resolution: 1) approving the King City Comprehensive Plan to End Youth Violence Phase II; and 2) dissolving the Police Advisory Committee and instead form a Youth Violence Prevention Committee to oversee implementation of the Plan.
BACKGROUND:
In 2016, the City Council formed a Community Task Force to develop a Comprehensive Plan to Address Youth Violence. The Community Task Force included 23 representatives from government agencies, public safety, non-profit organizations, and the community at large. The King City Comprehensive Plan to End Youth Violence was adopted by the City Council on January 24, 2017.
The plan includes 5 categories of recommendations, which are prevention, intervention, enforcement, re-entry, and public outreach. The Community Task Force reviewed each category, identified existing programs to better coordinate and expand them, and then identified recommended programs and implementation strategies. The Plan also included measures for evaluation, tracking and updates.
Almost all the measures were implemented, and the immediate results were dramatic. Overall shootings dropped from 32 to 1 the first year and 0 the second year. In addition, the community response and involvement were very positive.
Information provided by the community regarding incidents involving violence increased significantly, which assisted the Police Department to increase cases

solved. It was recognized with the Helen Putnam Award for Excellence by the League of California Cities.
However, gang violence has been steadily increasing since the pandemic, which threatens our youth, the public’s safety and everyone's quality of life. As a result, at the March 25, 2025 meeting, City Council approved initiating a second phase of the Comprehensive Plan to End Youth Violence to expand the efforts and continue working toward the ultimate goal of eliminating gang activity and youth violence.
A new task force was formed, which has been meeting over the past 5 months.
The task force consisted of representatives from the City, key outside agency partners and stakeholders, and the faith community. They have agreed on the Phase II plan, which is being presented for City Council consideration.
DISCUSSION:
The proposed King City Comprehensive Plan to End Youth Violence Phase II is attached. It includes 11 proposed measures, including the following:
• Youth Job Development and Placement Program – job preparation, placement and training services provided in partnership with the Monterey County Workforce Development Board, initially targeting students at Portola Butler High School and participants at Sun Street Centers. • Gang Resistance Education and Training Program (G.R.E.A.T.) – a gang prevention school curriculum program that would be coordinated and presented by the school resource officers.
• Gang Street Outreach Program – contracting and training street outreach workers, who would contact and work with youth with gang affiliations to connect them with services and opportunities designed to provide alternatives to gang involvement.
• We Care Program – a youth initiative provided by volunteers at the California Department of Corrections and Rehabilitation in Soledad where incarcerated men share their experiences with at-risk youth to offer mentorship and guidance.
• Police Patrol and Investigations Staffing Increase – increase Police Department staffing by one officer in Patrol and one in the Investigations Unit to increase enforcement, community outreach activities, and proactive prevention activities.

• Additional School Resource Officer (SRO) – add one SRO to assign one to the South Monterey County Joint Union High School District (SMCJUHSD) and one to the King City Union School District to increase proactive intervention activities, more presence at elementary schools, implementation of G.R.E.A.T. program, the ability to establish more constructive relationships with youth, and to more effectively identify and work with at-risk youth.
• High School Faith Based Student Club – support establishing a faith-based student organization at the high school that would be student driven and facilitated by the Pastor of the First Baptist Church.
• Step Up Mentoring Program and Rainbow Connections – expand utilization of these mentoring and family support programs through the schools and churches, which are provided by Partners for Peace.
• Rancho Cielo Satellite Facility – partner with the other South County jurisdictions to help fund and develop a satellite Rancho Cielo facility in South Monterey County to enhance access for King City youth to the vocational training and youth social service programs they provide. • First Tee Monterey County Youth Learning Center – partner with First Tee to support their proposed efforts to construct a youth learning center at the King City Golf Course that would expand after-school youth programming and learning opportunities.
• Re-Entry Program – develop a future program to provide housing and support services to individuals released after serving a prison sentence.
The proposed plan includes a description of each measure and an implementation strategy.
Attendance at the Police Advisory Committee meetings has been inconsistent for the last few years. Therefore, it is recommended to dissolve it and instead create a Community Youth Violence Prevention Committee that would meet quarterly to help oversee implementation and ongoing updates to the Plan. There is significant interest in the community regarding efforts to eliminate youth violence, so it is believed the City would be more successful in achieving consistent attendance and participation if the Committee were focused specifically on the goal ending youth violence.

BACKGROUND
The City of King is a community of approximately 14,000 residents and 3.8 square miles in the Salinas Valley of Monterey County, California. The City has experienced a significant youth violence problem. In 2016-2017, the City developed a Comprehensive Plan to End Youth Violence (“Plan”) through a task force of community stakeholders and partner agencies.
The Plan was very successful. It included 25 measures, which were all implemented or modified. Total shootings dropped from 32 in 2017 to 1 in 2018 and 0 in 2019. The City was awarded the League of California Cities Helen Putnam Award in recognition of the effort. However, since the pandemic, overall shooting activity has gradually increased.
