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 Draper Street for Street Eats Event 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 Draper street must be approved by Council unless there is a pre-approved agreement.

Under this policy, Draper street closure requests will only be considered for Non-Profit organizations whose principal place of business is in Kingsburg, California (“Local Non-Profit”). All Draper Street closures will require City Council approval unless pre-approved under a preexisting agreement. These requests must be for community- focused events open to the public which enhance the quality of life for the residents of the Kingsburg and offer the citizens of Kingsburg something to participate in and enjoy (collectively “Community Events”).

The Kingsburg Chamber of Commerce is submitting their request for partial closure of Draper Street between California Street and Smith Street for their October Street Eats community event October 7, 2022. The event will run from 5pm to 9pm and will consist of food trucks and vendors lining the street for an evening of fellowship and community engagement. In June 2022 the Chamber partnered with a Fresno based nonprofit to coordinate a series of food truck events at Memorial Park. The goal of these events was to bring people into Kingsburg and support local business. The Chamber is seeking to explore downtown as a viable venue for these events in order to better serve their membership.

These events will be open to the public and Staff believes the proposed event meets all current policy guidelines and is eligible for street closure consideration by City Council. The application has been distributed internally for departmental input and has received comments (if applicable). There are no pending issues with the application.

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

1. Increase Retail Opportunities

2. Improve Community Communication

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: Call for Murals; Program Guidelines and Budget ACTION REQUESTED: ___Ordinance ___Resolution ___Motion _____Receive/File

EXECUTIVE SUMMARY
Councilmember Roman has been coordinating efforts with downtown business/property owners in an effort to launch a downtown mural program. The purpose of the program is to continue to amplify downtown, promote the arts and provide a visible attractant while walking and driving in downtown Kingsburg. During their May 23, 2022 meeting, the Economic Development Committee recommended bringing the item to council at a future meeting for consideration of funding and discussion of the program guidelines. Since then, Councilmember Roman has been working with business owners to develop a list of locations for consideration. She also provided staff with examples of similar programs in other jurisdictions. Staff has modeled our program utilizing those templates.

This evening, staff is seeking input on the proposed program guidelines, which are included for your review. The proposed locations of the murals currently include (photos are also included in the proposed guidelines):

1. Alley Way by Salon Zen - 1422 Draper St.

2. Back portion of West America Bank on Marion - 1466 Marion St.

3. North Side of the building at 1543 Marion St.

4. Back of Kingsburg Public Library facing the public parking lot - 1363 Draper St.

5. Marion side of Chicago Title building - 1398 Draper St. (corner of Draper St. and Marion St.)

6. Back of Apotek mixed-use building in the converted alley - 1363 Draper St.

In addition, the program requires funding that is not currently budgeted. Council could choose to solicit for request for proposals, and then make formal action based upon recommendations of the selection panel (made up of the property owners and Economic Development Committee). Alternatively, council could allocate funding for the program with a not to exceed amount. Funding could come from General Fund reserves or American Rescue Plan Act funds.

RECOMMENDED ACTION BY CITY COUNCIL

1. Staff recommends approval of the call for mural program and guidelines.

2. If the council wishes to fund the program with a pre-determined amount, direct staff to craft the necessary budget amendments to incorporate into the FY23 budget.

POLICY ALTERNATIVE(S)

1. Council could choose to provide amendments to the proposed guidelines and/or program.

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: Development Incentive Program Updates – Eligible Zones ACTION REQUESTED: ___Ordinance ___Resolution ___Motion _____Receive/File

EXECUTIVE SUMMARY
The city currently utilizes several incentive programs intended to attract, retain, or improve businesses in City limits. While some of the programs are eligible city-wide (tax rebates, impact fee reductions, etc.), some of the programs were purposely crafted to target specific areas for improvement. During public discussions of appropriate use of American Rescue Plan Act (ARPA) funds, council gave direction to staff to examine expanding the eligible areas outside of central commercial zone for the programs that are limited in location eligibility.

Façade/Alley Reimbursement Program
One of the city’s most utilized incentive programs is the façade/alley improvement program. The program, adopted in 2015, has provided matching funding for eligible businesses/property owners to improve their facades or to partner to improve public alleyways for pedestrian/business uses. The program was originally designed to encourage economic investment and revitalization to buildings within the central commercial zone district (“District”). The appearance of individual buildings, storefronts, signs, window displays, parking lots, and sidewalks establishes the visual character of the District and plays a major role in the success of the District.

Since inception, the program has provided project funding of $223,861.20 for 44 projects that include façade enhancement, business signage, lighting, landscaping, and alleyway improvements. Originally, the program provided matching funding up to $5,000. That amount was amended in 2019 and increased to $10,000 of matching funds per qualifying project.

Given the success of the program since 2015 and the desire to continue to incentivize private investment, staff has provided an amended grant guideline for council consideration. The proposed amendments would expand eligibility to all commercial zones, but maintain existing project eligibility (retail, commercial, or professional buildings). Staff agrees that these improvements not only add to aesthetic enhancement, but also increases property values and the potential for commercial space to remain filled. Each of these provides a financial return on investment to the city in the form of property tax and sales tax revenues.

We have not received any applications for the current fiscal year but have had inquiries from business owners who are currently outside the Central Commercial zone. If applications exceed existing funding, staff will bring the item back to council for consideration of additional funding. For FY22, the city processed six applications. Two of these were completed and one is in progress.

Development Based Forgivable Loan Program
Adopted by Council in 2020, this program is designed to assist property owners with gap financing alternatives that promote the long- term economic sustainability for the City of Kingsburg. The Kingsburg City Council has designated “residual property tax funding,” to be used for new development and/or rehab projects that would otherwise not occur without such funding.

Meeting Date: 09/21/2022
Agenda Item: 6.2

• City Assistance – City will provide a 50/50 match for qualified improvements up to $75,000. Amounts requested over $75,000 will be considered by the City Council. Matching funds can be from private investment.

Example: A building owner is spending $200,000 on fire sprinkler and additional structural building repairs. They can request funding for eligible ADA improvements, fire sprinklers and other necessary life safety items. For determining the 50/50 match, all building improvements will be considered as a whole as opposed to per improvement.
• Per Property Limit - Up to $75,000 per property (unless council approves a larger amount). • Program Budget – The RPTTF residual amount is dependent upon property tax collection. Currently, approximately $150,000 is collected annually. Council can discontinue this program at any time. • Property owner must be willing to keep the space for commercial use for a minimum of ten years after loan approval. The loan will be forgiven on a pro-rata percentage each year the space is kept in compliance.

Prior to 2011, California law allowed local governments to create redevelopment agencies (“RDAs”) that assisted in the economic redevelopment of various areas. RDAs provided a form of tax increment financing. Cities could use the funds to help attract businesses to depressed areas, cleanup contamination, and make improvements to public areas to promote quality of life. In 2011, the California legislature passed AB 26, which essentially eliminated these agencies throughout the state. Limited RDA powers were transferred to successor agencies, which were required to fulfill all outstanding obligations of the RDA.

After the elimination of RDAs, the property taxes that once went to the Kingsburg RDA are now placed in a countywide Redevelopment Property Tax Trust Fund (“RPTTF”). The state recognized that RDA successor agencies are still required to fulfill financial obligations that were entered into prior to the elimination of RDAs. The City has an approved “Last and Final Recognized Obligation Payment Schedule (ROPS)” by the California Department of Finance. As such, the City receives an apportionment from the RPTTF to fulfill the ROPS obligations. If funds remain in the RPTTF after payments are made for the ROPS obligations for each successor agency, the remaining funds are considered residual RPTTF funds and are distributed proportionally to the taxing entities that would have received tax revenues from the former RDA project areas. The City’s share of RPTTF funds will be used to fund this loan program.

One of the major challenges that owners face are the regulatory improvements that must be made when converting older buildings to today’s building/fire code requirements. Two downtown property owners have approved applications with the city, with one completing their project (Corsaro’s/Roadhouse 99).

We have not received any applications for the current fiscal year but have had inquiries from business owners who are currently outside the Central Commercial zone.

1 PROGRAM PROPOSAL:

DEVELOPMENT BASSED FORGIVABLE LOAN PROGRAM
Overview
This program is designed to assist property owners with gap financing alternatives that promote the longterm economic sustainability for the City of Kingsburg. The Kingsburg City Council has designated “residual property tax funding,” to be used for new development and/or rehab projects that would otherwise not occur without such funding. Prior to 2011, California law allowed local governments to create redevelopment agencies (“RDAs”) that assisted in the economic redevelopment of various areas. RDAs provided a form of tax increment financing. Cities could use the funds to help attract businesses to depressed areas, cleanup contamination, and make improvements to public areas to promote quality of life. In 2011, the California legislature passed AB 26, which essentially eliminated these agencies throughout the state.

Limited RDA powers were transferred to successor agencies, which were required to fulfill all outstanding obligations of the RDA.

After the elimination of RDAs, the property taxes that once went to the Kingsburg RDA are now placed in a county-wide Redevelopment Property Tax Trust Fund (“RPTTF”). The state recognized that RDA successor agencies are still required to fulfill financial obligations that were entered into prior to the elimination of RDAs. The City has an approved “Last and Final Recognized Obligation Payment Schedule (ROPS)” by the California Department of Finance. As such, the City receives an apportionment from the RPTTF to fulfill the ROPS obligations. If funds remain in the RPTTF after payments are made for the ROPS obligations for each successor agency, the remaining funds are considered residual RPTTF funds and are distributed proportionally to the taxing entities that would have received tax revenues from the former RDA project areas. The City’s share of RPTTF funds will be used to fund this loan program. The program will operate as follows:
• City Assistance – City will provide a 50/50 match for qualified improvements up to $75,000. Amounts requested over $75,000 will be considered by the City Council. Matching funds can be from private investment.

Example: Example: A building owner is spending $200,000 on fire sprinkler and additional structural building repairs. They can request funding for eligible ADA improvements, fire sprinklers and other necessary life safety items. For determining the 50/50 match, all building improvements will be considered as a whole as opposed to per improvement.A building owner is contributing $75,000 for sprinkler and structural building repairs. They can request funding for ADA improvements. For determining the 50/50 match, all building improvements will be considered as a whole as opposed to per improvement.
• Per Property Limit - Up to $75,000 per property (unless council approves a larger amount). • Program Budget – The RPTTF residual amount is dependent upon property tax collection. Currently, approximately $150,000 is collected annually. Council can discontinue this program at any time. • Property owner must be willing to keep the space for commercial use for a minimum of ten years after loan approval. The loan will be forgiven on a pro-rata percentage each year the space is kept in compliance.

Once the annual fund balance for the program is exhausted, funding will be unavailable until the next annual budget. If funds are budgeted for the next budget year, any approved but unfunded applications will be funded first to extent budget funds are available for the program If two applications are received in the same month and receive the same amount of points and there is limited funding, funds will be awarded to the applicant that is first to have its application approved by the City.

DEVELOPMENT BASED FORGIVABLE LOAN

PROGRAM GUIDELINES

CITY OF KINGSBURG

ECONOMIC DEVELOPMENT INCENTIVE
1 PROGRAM PROPOSAL:

DEVELOPMENT BASED FORGIVABLE LOAN PROGRAM
Overview
This program is designed to assist property owners with gap financing alternatives that promote the longterm economic sustainability for the City of Kingsburg. The Kingsburg City Council has designated “residual property tax funding,” to be used for new development and/or rehab projects that would otherwise not occur without such funding. Prior to 2011, California law allowed local governments to create redevelopment agencies (“RDAs”) that assisted in the economic redevelopment of various areas. RDAs provided a form of tax increment financing. Cities could use the funds to help attract businesses to depressed areas, cleanup contamination, and make improvements to public areas to promote quality of life. In 2011, the California legislature passed AB 26, which essentially eliminated these agencies throughout the state.

Limited RDA powers were transferred to successor agencies, which were required to fulfill all outstanding obligations of the RDA.

They can request funding for eligible ADA improvements, fire sprinklers and other necessary life safety items.

For determining the 50/50 match, all building improvements will be considered as a whole as opposed to per improvement.
• Per Property Limit - Up to $75,000 per property (unless council approves a larger amount). • Program Budget – The RPTTF residual amount is dependent upon property tax collection. Currently, approximately $150,000 is collected annually. Council can discontinue this program at any time. • Property owner must be willing to keep the space for commercial use for a minimum of ten years after loan approval. The loan will be forgiven on a pro-rata percentage each year the space is kept in compliance.

Location
The property must be located within an eligible commercial district within the city limits. 2 Approved Projects
It is the desire of the City Council to maintain flexibility when considering potential improvement projects and their long-term benefit to a viable, diverse local economy. In order to streamline the application process and to provide clarity with regards to ‘pre-approved’ improvements, the following shall be considered permitted improvements, with application approval made by staff.

1. ADA Improvements (e.g. path of travel and restroom)

2. Life Safety Improvements (e.g. Seismic and Fire suppression); these improvements must be approved by the City.

Property Qualifications
• Eligible properties are properties used solely for retail or commercial uses. Owner will be required to maintain retail or commercial uses for a minimum of 10 years after completion of all improvements to the property.
• New construction is eligible if all other program requirements are met. 3 • Only owners of properties may apply under the program. Owners may make an application for more than one property.
• The property must be an eligible commercial zone.
• Facades visible from the public right of way must be an improved condition and comply with all applicable Laws. City funding under this program may not be used to improve facades, unless specifically approved by the City Council. Facades must be in a condition that does not detract from or change the architectural character of the building. When feasible, the original design of the facade should be restored so that it is contextually appropriate with the age and character of the building. Applicants may also participate in the City’s Façade/Alley improvement program, if eligible funding exists.
• The property must comply with all applicable Laws on the completion of the rehabilitation. The City will inspect the property to ensure compliance. The City will evaluate on a case-by-case basis an application for rehabilitating only a portion of the building as part of the submitted project. The use of green construction methods and energy efficient design is encouraged. • The property must be in compliance with applicable City zoning regulations. • The City has the right to inspect the property annually for a period of ten (10) years after completion to confirm appropriate uses and the building complies with all applicable Laws.

Funding Terms/Scope of Work
• The City will fund up to 50% of the total cost to finance City approved improvements based on funding availability (not to exceed $75,000) for eligible expenses). • Loans will be documented as follows:
o The Loan will be evidenced by a secured promissory note (“Promissory Note”) and a first deed of trust (“Deed of Trust”) prepared by the City. If the Deed of Trust will not be 4 a first Deed of Trust recorded against title to the property, eligibility to participate in the program will be determined by the City on a case-by-case basis.  Annual Promissory Note payments will be forgiven so long as the property owner complies with all provisions of the Development Agreement, Promissory Note and Deed of Trust and the property continues to be used solely for retail/commercial uses for a period of ten (10) years.
 The loan to value ratio for all debt secured by the property on the date of recordation of the Deed of Trust shall be no greater than 80%, which must be supported by an appraisal approved by the City prior to funding. If a loan to value ratio greater than 80% is proposed, outside collateral sufficient to provide 80% loan to value ratio will be required. Personal guarantees may be required for additional collateral and will be evaluated on a case-by-case basis  Proposed improvement costs will be evaluated based upon submitted quotes for work, as well as City staff estimates and comparisons to construction costs of similar projects.
 The applicant and applicant’s construction and development team must have capacity to complete the project as demonstrated by past projects.  A title company is selected by the City shall issue a lender’s policy of title insurance to the City insuring the Deed of Trust as a first Deed of Trust recorded against title to the Property (or a junior lien approved by the City). The applicant shall pay all escrow fees, cost of the lender’s policy of title insurance, recording fees and associated fees and costs.
• Non-compliance with program requirements includes but is not limited to, failing to comply with all applicable laws, including, without limitation, City property maintenance requirements, failure to acquire and maintain annual business licenses, failing to timely pay all real property taxes and assessments; default under any lien, encumbrance or deed of trust recorded against title to the property; failing to complete the project within the timeline approved by the City and failure to maintain the space for commercial purposes.
• The City and the property owner will execute a development agreement (“Development Agreement”) that will outline the requirements and conditions of program performance, including timelines and scope of work. A property owner’s breach of any provision of the Development Agreement shall constitute a breach under the Promissory Note and Deed ofTrust. • The City will inspect the property and identify all Law violations. All violations must be corrected new development or Rehab specifications and plans will be reviewed and approved by the City. All work must be performed in accordance with all applicable Laws. • The Promissory Note and Deed of Trust will contain a due on sale provision requiring the payment of the remaining principal balance of the Promissory Note if the property is sold prior to the expiration of the ten (10) year term of the Promissory Note. However, the City will consider waiving enforcement of the due on sale provision and transferring the loan to a new owner if the prospective new owner and the property after sale, satisfies the program requirements outlined in this document. Any request by the property owner for the City’s waiver of the due on sale provision must be made in writing and delivered to the City at least forty-five (45) days prior to 5 close of escrow along with a copy of any Purchase Agreement, Escrow Instructions and related documents and any other documents requested by the City. The new owner must agree to allow the City to continue inspections throughout the entire ten (10) year term of the Promissory Note, and must executed an Program Assumption Agreement in a form acceptable to the City, specially assuming all obligations of the prior owner of the property under this Program, the Development Agreement, the Promissory Note and the Deed of Trust.

Eligibility
