CITY COUNCIL MEETING STAFF REPORT
REPORT TO: Mayor North & City Council
REPORT FROM: Community Services Director Adam Castaneda REVIEWED BY: AP AGENDA ITEM: Requested Closure of Marion Street for Uptown Sprouts Event 5/1/2022 ACTION REQUESTED: ___Ordinance ___Resolution ___Motion _____Receive/File
EXECUTIVE SUMMARY
On April 17, 2019, City Council approved the updated Special Event Application along with a street closure policy.
The policy states that all closures of central commercial streets must be approved by Council unless there is a preapproved agreement.
Under this policy, local businesses can request the closure of central commercial streets for community events.
However, all requests for street closures in the central commercial zone district shall require City Council approval.
An applicant, at its expense, will provide written notice of the request for the street closure to all businesses fronting on the portion of the street to be closed (collectively “Affected Business”). The written notice must identify the date and time of the street closure and the Community Event that will take place during the street closure.
Before seeking City Council approval of the street closure, the applicant must receive written consent to the street closure from a majority of affected businesses. If the applicant receives written consent to the street closure from a majority of affected businesses, the applicant may seek City Council approval of the street closure. City Council approval of the street closure must be received at least thirty (30) days prior to the date of the street closure.
These requests must be for community events open to the public.
Uptown Sprouts is submitting a request for partial closure of Marion Street between Draper Street and Lewis Street for their Bunny Trails Rescue Fundraiser on May 1, 2022, from 7am to 5pm. This event will be open to the public and will consist of pop-up vendors, food and Bunny Trail Rescue resources for residents. Staff believes the proposed event meets most current policy guidelines and is eligible for street closure consideration with a waiver by Council. As stated in the guidelines, approval of the street closure must be received at least thirty (30) days prior to the date of the street closure. Staff received this application thirty (30) days in advance of the event date.
Due to the timing of the next council meeting (March has 5 Wednesdays), council approval could not be achieved outside the 30 days. However, the majority of affected businesses have signed off and staff is recommending a onetime waiver of the thirty (30) day requirement. The application has been distributed internally for departmental input and has received conditions of approval. Given the previous event history by the proposed applicant, additional conditions shall include:
• Hiring security staff to ensure that no parking takes place in front of Fire Station #1 entrance/drive approach
• Alley access to always remain open and free of obstruction • Fire lane to be maintained incase of an emergency
• No vehicle access within the street closure during event hours • Additional trash receptacles and restrooms ordered based on attendance projections
Meeting Date: 04/06/2022
Agenda Item: 5.4
RECOMMENDED ACTION BY CITY COUNCIL
1. Staff has evaluated the application for policy compliance and has no pending concerns regarding the application.
POLICY ALTERNATIVE(S)
1. The council could choose to not approve the requested closure.
STRATEGIC INITIATIVE

CITY COUNCIL MEETING STAFF REPORT
REPORT TO: Mayor North & City Council
REPORT FROM: Alexander J. Henderson, City Manager, ICMA-CM REVIEWED BY: AP AGENDA ITEM: Micro-Grant Application Consideration – KGSL ACTION REQUESTED: ___Ordinance ___Resolution ____Motion ____Receive/File
EXECUTIVE SUMMARY
In 2017, Council created a program (guidelines attached) that would partner the City with private residents, groups or service clubs (public/private partnership) to help finance projects that may otherwise go unfunded. The main purpose(s) of the grant program is to support the following strategic priorities:
• Beautifying a public space/park
• Support community programs/group activities
• Provide a safety benefit
• Improve overall quality of life in our community
• Promote sustainable economic development
Staff has received an application for matching funds that would be used to help revitalize the former Mosquito Abatement District (MAD) building, located at 1201 Kern St. The applicant, Kingsburg Girls Softball League (KGSL), is proposing to utilize funds to revamp the building for the purpose of creating an indoor batting cage. KGSL has also been awarded grant funds for the project from the Kingsburg Tri-County Health Care District (KTCHCD). Staff has attached KYSL’s application to the KTCHCD, which has been used to supplement the city’s application requirements. Proposed funding includes:
1. KTCHCD Grant (KGSL): $55,000
2. City Grant Program: $15,000
3. KGSL Contribution: $15,000
4. Additional Sponsors: $15,000
Included in your packet is information and application documents regarding the proposal. Staff has completed the rubric and determined the project is eligible for funding.
The project, as described by the applicant, is to update the existing facility to provide an indoor area for area youth to utilize as a batting cage. Improvements to the facility would include necessary demolition, installation of an ADA restroom, and purchase of equipment for the batting cage.
Currently, there are no indoor alternatives in Kingsburg. KGSL has indicated a desire to renovate and utilize the facility to promote long-term wellness and combat environmental issues that prohibit outdoor practices in certain circumstances, including excessive heat, air quality issues, and a lack of daylight and colder temperatures in the winter months.
Meeting Date: 04/06/2022
Agenda Item: 6.4
The former Mosquito Abatement District building, built in the 1950s, was originally sold by the city to the MAD for $1. However, the deed specified that if the building would no longer be utilized for the purposes of the MAD, the property would revert to the city. The MAD recently built a new complex in Parlier, and the property was reverted to city ownership. The MAD district utilized the building mostly for the storage of equipment and supplies. The building also has a small office and restroom. The city performed a Phase 1 environmental assessment to address and potential concerns from the possible storage of chemicals on site.
The assessment identified no evidence of recognized environmental conditions or controlled recognized environmental conditions in conjunction with the site. The report did recommend that a comprehensive asbestos and lead-based paint survey be conducted to ensure proper mitigation should those materials exist. Those surveys have not been completed as the city is not occupying the space. The city has used the building for temporary storage purposes only.
If approved, the city would draft a lease agreement with KGSL similar to lease agreements we have with other local youth organizations on city property (e.g. Kingsburg Youth Baseball Association). A representative from KGSL will be available to help answer additional questions.
