MEETING DATE: January 13, 2026

Agenda Title: Update Salary Schedule effective January 1, 2026

ACTION & RECOMMENDATION
Consider the Approval of Resolution 26-03 updating the City of Lindsay Salary Schedule effective January 1, 2026.

BACKGROUND | ANALYSIS
The California Minimum Wage has increased from $16.50 to $16.90 effective January 1, 2026 and our City of Lindsay Salary Schedule needs to be updated to reflect the minimum wage increase. I accidently removed one position (Records Clerk) from the previous schedule approved by Council on December 9, 2025 when we removed several positions which have not been filled in years.

The City has updated its salary schedule to reflect the changes, but inadvertently eliminated the Records Clerk position, while also removing historical positions, which are unfilled, not budgeted, and do not have an operational need. This item includes the Records Clerk positional along with all other positions previously approved during the December 9,2025 Council Meeting.

The City has nine positions which start at minimum wage and the hourly salary needs to be updated in order to be in compliance with California Minimum Wage. Additionally, three exempt positions are being updated in order to be in compliance with the exempt rule which states exempt employees must earn at least twice the minimum wage for full-time work.

FISCAL IMPACT
The minimum wage increase was taken into account for the FY2026 Budget.

Agenda Title: Fiscal Year 2025-2026 Review of the 2
nd Quarter

ACTION & RECOMMENDATION
The Second Quarter Budget Review for Fiscal Year 2025-2026 is attached. The summary shows the revenues and expenses for July through December of 2025.

BACKGROUND | ANALYSIS
The City receives revenue at different times throughout the year in order to cover expenses.

The General Fund revenues the City depends on are received at different times throughout the Fiscal Year:
• Monthly Receipts: Sales Tax, Utility User Tax, Special Tax (Measure O and R) • Quarterly Receipts: Retail Cannabis Tax, Transient Occupancy Tax • Twice a Year: Property Taxes
• Grants: Mostly on a reimbursement basis.

Water and Sewer Funds receive money on a daily basis as residents make their utility payments.

Refuse Fund revenue is received in late December and April when the residents pay their property taxes.

Parks and Street Grants for the most part are received after the City has paid for expenses and submit for reimbursement from the granting agency.

Normal operating expenses are paid weekly. Unfortunately, some major expenses are paid upfront in July:
• CalPERS Unfunded Liability payment $1,100,207
• Liability Insurance, Workers Compensation and Property Insurance $1,018,945 The 2
nd Quarter Review shows that most of the funds are in line with revenue and expenses. We are waiting for a reimbursement from the State for over $2,000,000 for the Olive Bowl, and the debt payment in the Sewer fund is making the fund be in a deficit for the time being. We will continue to monitor all revenue and expenses and make adjustments as needed.

STAFF REPORT
TO: Lindsay City Council
MEETING DATE: January 13, 2026
DEPARTMENT: City Manager
FROM: Kuyler Crocker, City Manager
Agenda Title: Refuse Rate and Lighting and Landscape Maintenance District Rate Study Discussion

ACTION & RECOMMENDATION
Receive and file this report and provide direction regarding potential adjustments to Refuse Rates and Lighting and Landscape District Rates to ensure the long-term fiscal sustainability of the affected districts.

BACKGROUND | ANALYSIS
The City of Lindsay maintains Enterprise funds, which charge residents fees for specific services. Most recently, the City conducted a rate study for water and sewer, in which a Proposition 218 election was enacted to implement the new rates.

Similarly, the City also has Enterprise funds for Refuse and Lighting and Landscape Districts. During the budget process, staff outlined the shortfalls in various LLDs, as well as, a low margin within the Refuse fund.

Refuse
The Refuse fund in Lindsay in recent years has reserved the annual Franchise Fee within the Enterprise fund.

Standard practice for cities is to deposit Franchise Fees into the General Fund to support other City functions.

This is in alignment with Lindsay’s franchise fees for utilities (electric, natural gas, cable, telecommunications).

Additionally, transfers from the Refuse Fund to the City’s Streets Improvement Fund have been reduced to ensure a balanced budget. However, the normal wear and tear of heavy waste hauling trucks dictate the need to mitigate their usage of the City’s local streets by contributing to their upkeep.

SB 1383 is a state mandate requiring the collection of organic materials and mitigation efforts for organic waste. Some mitigation efforts include purchase of organic compost, public education efforts, public noticing, enhanced use of recycled materials, and additional compliance documentation. All of these additional efforts are extra costs that have not been included in the existing rate structure for refuse.

Lastly, annual increases to waste hauling through the use of a consumer price index necessitate increasing rates annually. Rates were last evaluated in 2021 and are due for reevaluation.

Lighting and Landscape Maintenance Districts
The City of Lindsay administers multiple Lighting and Landscape Maintenance Districts (LLMDs) to provide ongoing maintenance of public landscaping, lighting, irrigation systems, and related infrastructure. These services are funded primarily through special assessments collected annually.

A review of district financial activity at the beginning of Fiscal Year 2025–2026 indicates that several districts are operating with fund balance deficits. These deficits limit the City’s ability to adequately maintain district improvements and place additional strain on City resources.

In addition to having existing deficits in the LLDs, services for each district could also be enhanced with a higher level of service and additives. These enhancements would further beautification efforts in the City along with improved public safety through lighting.

Rate Study
Item #: 15.1
Presentations
Rate studies for these two distinct areas would solidify the shortfalls and identify what the appropriate rates should be for each. The studies would facilitate a Prop 218 election to ensure accurate billing and collection.

Providing direction to staff to begin a formal study would help provide more information for Council to determine next steps to proceed with a Prop 218 election later in the Spring, along with the appropriate amounts for each. The conclusion of the election would be timed to be completed prior to Tulare County’s deadline for placing new rates on the property tax roll in early August.

FISCAL STATUS OF AFFECTED DISTRICTS & REFUSE
As of the beginning of FY 2025–2026, the following districts are operating with negative fund balances:
• Sierra View: ($10,951.82)
• Sweetbrier Townhouses: ($12,815.65)
• Sierra Vista: ($3,519.22)
• Pelous Ranch: ($4,420.94)
These deficits reflect a pattern of expenditures meeting or exceeding annual revenues over multiple fiscal years.

If the City continues to expend all revenue received by each district—or exceeds available revenues—the districts will remain unable to maintain adequate reserve balances. This practice results in districts effectively failing to sustain their own maintenance obligations.

Without corrective action, the following risks are anticipated:
• Continued erosion of district fund balances
• Deferred maintenance of landscaping and lighting infrastructure • Increased likelihood of emergency repairs at higher costs • Potential subsidization by the City’s General Fund, which is not sustainable Current revenue levels are insufficient to both cover annual maintenance costs and restore fiscal stability. Rate adjustments, expenditure controls, or service level modifications may be necessary to ensure each district operates independently and responsibly.

Refuse’s Franchise Fee is budgeted at $305,000 in FY 2026 along with $304,461 in FY 2025. Neither have been transferred into the General Fund. The shortfall in overhead, Streets Improvement Fund, and SB 1383 implementation is in the hundreds of thousands of dollars.

FISCAL IMPACT
Failure to address current rate structures may result in:
• Ongoing district deficits
• Increased financial liability for the City
• Reduced service quality and infrastructure degradation Conversely, timely rate adjustments or policy direction may stabilize district finances and support long-term maintenance obligations.

Ordinance 701 Amending Chapter 2.43 of Title 2 of the Lindsay Municipal Code, Updating the City’s Conflict of Interest Code and Adopting a Revised Appendix A

ACTION & RECOMMENDATION
Staff recommends that the City Council adopt second reading of Ordinance 701 amending Chapter 2.43 of Title 2 of the Lindsay Municipal Code to update the City’s Conflict of Interest Code and adopt a revised Appendix A.

BACKGROUND | ANALYSIS
Government Code Section 87300 et seq. requires local agencies to adopt and periodically update a Conflict of Interest Code identifying designated positions and disclosure categories. The Fair Political Practices Commission (FPPC) provides a model code under Regulation 18730, which the City traditionally incorporates by reference.

The City’s current Conflict of Interest Code, last updated by Ordinance 584, requires revisions to reflect changes in staffing, organizational structure, and disclosure requirements. Staff has reviewed all City job classifications and prepared an updated Appendix A—Designated Positions and Disclosure Categories.

Ordinance No. 584, adopted on November 10, 2020, amended Chapter 2.43 of the Lindsay Municipal Code to align with state law and Fair Political Practices Commission (FPPC) regulations. It also repealed outdated provisions and clarified the City Clerk’s role as the filing officer.

The proposed ordinance maintains the substantive framework established by Ordinance 584 but updates the associated appendix to ensure:
• Compliance with FPPC requirements
• Alignment between designated positions and current City operations • Accurate disclosure categories based on decision-making authority • Legal defensibility and administrative clarity
The updated Appendix A will be filed with the FPPC following adoption.

FISCAL IMPACT
None. The update imposes no additional financial obligations on the City

Second reading of the Zoning Ordinance amendment to change the zoning designation from Light Industrial (IL) to Mixed Use (MU) for specified parcels, ensuring consistency with the General Plan.

ACTION & RECOMMENDATION
Second reading of Zoning Ordinance 702, approving a zoning amendment for parcels located north of Hermosa Street, south of West Tulare Road, west of North Sweetbriar Avenue, and east of the Union Pacific Rail line, changing the zoning from Light Industrial (IL) to Mixed Use (MU) to achieve consistency with the General Plan.

BACKGROUND | ANALYSIS
The subject properties (“Sites”) are located along the City’s Blue Gum area, generally North of Hermosa St., south of W. Tulare Rd, west of N. Sweetbriar Ave. and east of the Union Pacific Rail line. These parcels have been the subject of multiple development inquires for uses more consistent with a Mixed-Use designation and are not ideally suited for Light Industrial uses.

The Sites were rezoned in 2022, and in 2024 the City amended the Cannabis ordinance to allow cannabis uses in Light Industrial zoning. However, no development has occurred on the parcels for zone change from Mixed Use to IL designation.

Proposed Changes:

The General Plan currently designates the Sites as Mixed Use (MU), while the Zoning Map designates them as Light Industrial (IL), creating inconsistency. The proposed amendment would update the zoning to Mixed Use (MU) to conform to the General Plan.

Mixed Use zoning is more appropriate for these parcels due to their proximity to downtown, the Civic Center, and major collector roadways such as Tulare Road and Hermosa Street. Aligning the zoning with the General Plan will support the type of infill development envisioned for this central area of the City.

The thirteen (13) parcels make up 8.51 acres of land. The affected Assessor’s Parcel Numbers are:
• APN 205-360-011
• APN 205-360-012
• APN 205-360-013
• APN 205-096-003
• APN 205-101-006
• APN 205-101-017
• APN 205-101-015
• APN 205-101-014
• APN 205-101-012
• APN 205-101-016
• APN 205-293-011
• APN 205-293-015
• APN 205-101-007
Item #: 16.2
Action Items
Municipal Code Requirements
Pursuant to Lindsay Municipal Code Section 18.22.020 and Sections 18.22.040-18.22.090, amendments to the zoning plan, including district boundary changes, may be initiated by the City Council and must follow the procedural requirements established for modifying zoning district boundaries.

ENVIRONMENTAL REVIEW
The proposed zone change is exempt from the California Environmental Quality Act (CEQA) pursuant to Section 15061(b)(3) of the CEQA Guidelines. This “common sense exemption” applies because the zone change does not in itself authorize development and will not result in a significant environmental impact.

Environmental review will occur as individual development applications are submitted in the future.

CONDITIONS OF APPROVAL
The City Council will hold a public hearing on December 9 to receive public comments. A second reading of the ordinance will occur on January 13, 2026. If adopted, the zone amendment will take effect 30 days after the second reading.

PUBLIC OUTREACH
A public hearing notice was published in the Sun Gazette at least 20 days prior to the hearing. Written notices were mailed to all property owners within 300 feet of any of the thirteen (13) parcels.

FISCAL IMPACT
There is no fiscal impact from this item, aside from publication costs for the public hearing notice. Administrative expenses for the work are covered under the City’s existing contract with QK, Inc., for planning services.

AGENDA TITLE:

City Services
Susan Long, Contract City Planner
Adoption of the 2023–2031 Housing Element, Certification of the Program EIR, and Adoption of Zoning Ordinance Amendment No. 703 (By-Right Objective Approval Ordinance and ADU/ JADU Ordinance)

ACTION & RECOMMENDATION
Staff recommends that the City Council approve proposed 2023–2031 Housing Element, Environmental Impact Report (EIR) Addendum, and zoning ordinance updates; adopt a resolution repealing the 2015–2023 Housing Element and adopting the 2023–2031 Housing Element; and adopt ordinance No. 703 updating Title 18 (Zoning Ordinance) to implement the By‑Right Objective Approval Ordinance and the updated ADU/JADU regulations consistent with State law.

BACKGROUND | ANALYSIS
The City of Lindsay has prepared the 2023–2031 Housing Element (6th Cycle) to comply with State Housing Element Law (Gov. Code §§ 65580–65589.11) and meet its Regional Housing Needs Allocation (RHNA) of 789 units. The update includes expanded analysis of governmental and non‑governmental constraints, enhanced Affirmatively Furthering Fair Housing (AFFH) analysis, expanded program details, and strengthened collaboration components. The Housing Element was revised following three formal reviews by the California Department of Housing and Community Development (HCD): the first 90‑day review on July 6, 2024, and two subsequent 60‑day reviews on March 11, 2025, and August 12, 2025.

The City also prepared an addendum to the General Plan Environmental Impact Report (EIR) evaluating implementation of the Housing Element and associated zoning amendments. The zoning amendments include adoption of By‑Right Objective Approval for qualifying housing developments and adoption of updated ADU/JADU provisions consistent with State law.

REGIONAL HOUSING NEEDS ALLOCATION (RHNA)
Lindsay’s RHNA for the 2023–2031 cycle is 789 units across four income categories. The Housing Element provides an inventory of 1,121 realistic capacity units and includes a 61% RHNA buffer (287 units) to satisfy the 'No Net Loss' requirements under Gov. Code § 65863.

SITES INVENTORY SUMMARY
The sites inventory identifies a range of vacant and non‑vacant parcels capable of accommodating housing at all income levels. The inventory includes:
- 411 units on vacant sites
- 388 units on non‑vacant sites
- 322 units in pending/pipeline projects
- 0 projected Accessory Dwelling Units (ADUs)
The City’s rezoning program and By‑Right Approval Ordinance ensure that adequate lower‑income sites remain available throughout the planning period.

Item #: 16.3
Action Items

AFFIRMATIVELY FURTHERING FAIR HOUSING (AFFH)
The Housing Element includes a full Assessment of Fair Housing (AFH) evaluating segregation patterns, Racially and Ethnically Concentrated Areas of Poverty (R/ECAPs), disparities in access to opportunity, and disproportionate housing needs. Lindsay collaborated with the Housing Authority of Tulare County, Fair Housing Council of Central California (FHCCC), and UC Merced regional data providers for mapping and analysis. The Housing Element includes targeted programs to expand housing choice, address displacement risk, increase mobility opportunities, and support underserved populations.

PUBLIC ENGAGEMENT SUMMARY
Public engagement conducted between 2023 and 2025 included:

4 1.5 Project Description
The Project consists of the following elements:

1. Housing Element Update: A comprehensive update to the City of Lindsay’s General Plan Housing Element

2. Zoning Code Update: An amendment to the City’s Zoning Ordinance (Chapter 18.15, General Provisions and Exceptions) adding Section 18.15.130 defining by-right approval process in accordance with state law, and establishing that certain housing projects must be allowed by right (including permanent supportive housing; low-barrier navigation centers; and projects that include at least 20 percent of units affordable to lower-income households on sites listed as lower-income sites in the Housing Element that are vacant and used in two prior Housing Element site inventories, or nonvacant and listed in one prior Housing Element site inventory).

3. Zoning Map Amendment: A Zoning Map amendment to rezone the following parcels from IL (Limited Industrial) to MXU (mixed-use) to establish consistency with their underlying General Plan Land Use Designations: 205-360-011, 205-360-012, 205-036-013, 205-096-003, 205-101- 006, 205-101-007, 205-101-012, 205-101-014, 205-101-015, 205-101-016, 205-101-017, 205- 930-011, 205-293-015.

State law requires that housing elements be updated every eight years (California Government Code Sections 65580 to 65589.8). Each eight-year period is referred to as a “cycle.” For Lindsay, the current (6th) cycle planning period runs from December 2023 through December 2031. Each Housing Element cycle, the California Department of Housing and Community Development assigns each region a share of the State’s housing need, and the regional government (in this case, the Tulare County Association of Governments) assigns each jurisdiction a share of the Regional Housing Need Allocation (RHNA).

The Housing Element Update must contain the following elements:
▪ Identification and analysis of existing and projected housing needs, resources, and constraints ▪ A statement of goals, policies, quantified objectives, and scheduled programs for preservation, improvement, and development of housing
▪ Assessment of the City’s fair housing issues
▪ Adequate provision for existing and projected needs of all economic segments of the community
▪ A Site Inventory which demonstrates the City’s ability to accommodate its share of the RHNA The Project would bring the City’s Housing Element into compliance with Housing Element Law, including legislation passed since the publication of the previous Housing Element cycle (adopted in 2015).

The Housing Element assists Lindsay in determining how to address existing and future housing needs and plan for future growth. The Housing Element Update would not directly result in the development of any specific project. Rather, it establishes objectives and policies designed to guide future development as the City works to achieve State-mandated housing goals.

The Site Inventory contains “housing opportunity sites” that are suitable for inclusion in the Site Inventory (pursuant to Housing Element Law) with their existing zoning and land use designations.

Zoning changes and future individual development projects will require project-specific Introduction and Project Summary
Addendum Evaluation 5
environmental review (except those exempted from further CEQA review by Housing Element law, and codified in the Zoning Code Update that is part of the Project). When a specific development proposal is considered for approval, that project would be subject to adopted development guidelines and standards and it must comply with the 2008 General Plan policies and actions listed in the certified General Plan EIR in accordance with California Environmental Quality Act (CEQA) Guidelines Section 15168(c)(3). If a subsequent activity (in this case, zoning or land use changes or a specific development proposal) would have effects not identified in the EIR (the General Plan EIR and this Addendum), the lead agency must prepare additional CEQA documentation prior to project approval.

The Project also includes text-only amendments to the City’s Zoning Code to ensure consistency with the Housing Element Update and State law. These changes would bring the Zoning Code into compliance with Government Code Section 65583.2, which requires cities to ministerially approve eligible affordable housing projects and exempts such projects from CEQA. These amendments fulfill the City’s obligation under Housing Element law to make Housing Element inventory sites available for development.

The Project also includes a Zoning Map amendment to establish consistency between 13 parcels’ zoning and General Plan Land Use designations (listed in Table 1, below). The parcels have a General Plan Land Use designation of Mixed Use and are zoned Light Industrial (IL); the Zoning Map amendment would rezone them to Mixed Use (MXU) consistent with their General Plan Land Use designations. These parcels are not listed in the Housing Element Site Inventory, either as rezone or opportunity sites. The Zoning Map Amendment does not implement the Housing Element. Rather, the Zoning Map Amendment implements the City’s General Plan Land Use Element and establishes consistency between the General Plan and Zoning Map.

This Addendum analyzes the changes and potential impacts related to the adoption of the Housing Element Update, Zoning Code Update, and Zoning Map Amendment. This Addendum is intended to demonstrate the consistency of the project with the existing General Plan to comply with CEQA. The City’s current General Plan underwent extensive environmental review in the form of an EIR, which City of Lindsay
City of Lindsay Housing Element Update 2023-2031
6 was certified in July 1989 (State Clearinghouse #1989080714). The City of Lindsay General Plan EIR (herein called the General Plan EIR) is a comprehensive document that includes discussion of alternatives and growth-inducing impacts associated with buildout of the City at the time it was developed.

This Addendum will compare the buildout of the proposed Project with the full-buildout scenario presented in the General Plan EIR. This Addendum assesses whether the Project would result in impacts not addressed or previously analyzed in the General Plan EIR.

1.6 Discretionary Action
Implementation of the project would require the following discretionary actions by the City of Lindsay City Council:
▪ Approval of a General Plan Amendment to incorporate the 2023-2031 Housing Element Update ▪ Approval of a Zoning Code text amendment
▪ Approval of a Zoning Map amendment
▪ Consideration of this Addendum
The California Department of Housing and Community Development (HCD) reviews and certifies that the proposed Housing Element complies with State law. Aside from HCD, no other approvals by outside public agencies are required.

2 Project Context
The California Legislature has identified the attainment of a decent home and suitable living environment for every resident as the State’s major housing goal. Recognizing the important role of local planning programs in pursuing this goal, the legislature mandated that all cities and counties prepare a housing element as part of their comprehensive general plans. Government Code Sections 65580 to 65589.8 set forth the specific components to be contained in a community’s housing element.

2.1 Purpose of the Housing Element
The Housing Element of the General Plan is designed to provide the City with a coordinated and comprehensive strategy for promoting the production of safe, decent, and affordable housing within the community.

Pursuant to State law, the Housing Element has two main purposes:

1. To provide an assessment of both current and future housing needs and constraints in meeting these needs; and

2. To provide a strategy that establishes housing goals, policies, and programs.

The Housing Element is one of the seven General Plan elements required by State law (Government Code Section 65302). The Housing Element serves as an integrated part of the General Plan but unlike other General Plan elements, is required by State law to be updated every eight years (California Government Code Section 65588). Each eight-year period is referred to as a “cycle,” the current cycle being the sixth.

The Housing Element identifies strategies and programs that focus on:

1. Conserving and improving existing affordable housing

2. Maximizing housing opportunities throughout the community

3. Assisting in the provision of affordable housing

4. Removing governmental and other constraints to housing investment

5. Promoting fair and equal housing opportunities
The Housing Element is an official response to the need to provide housing for all economic segments of the population, establishing goals, policies, and programs that will guide City decision making and set forth an action plan to implement these housing programs through the eight-year planning period.

The Housing Element analyzes market and governmental constraints to housing maintenance, improvement, and development; addresses conservation and improvement of the condition of existing affordable housing stock; and outlines policies that promote housing opportunities for all people.

The Housing Element must identify residential sites adequate to accommodate a variety of housing types for all income levels and to meet the needs of special population groups as defined under State law (California Government Code Section 65583).

8 2.2 Regional Housing Needs Allocation
The RHNA reflects the HCD’s determination of the projected housing needs in a region by household income level as a percentage of the Area Median Income (AMI). TCAG was tasked with allocating this regional housing need among the jurisdictions in the TCAG region, which includes the City of Lindsay. Table 2 shows the breakdown of Lindsay’s share of the RHNA for the 6th Cycle.

Table 2 2023-2031 Regional Housing Need Allocation
Income Category (Percent of Tulare
County Area Median Income [AMI]) Number of Units Percent of Total Units Extremely Low (< 30% of AMI)* 51 6.5%
Very Low (30 to 50% of AMI) 42 5.3%
Low (51 to 80% of AMI) 58 7.4%
Moderate (81% to 120% of AMI) 178 22.6%
Above Moderate (> 120% of AMI) 460 58.2%
Total 789 100%
* The RHNA does not project the need for extremely low-income units, but pursuant to State law (AB 2634), the City must project its extremely low-income housing needs based on Census income distribution or assume 50 percent of the very low-income units required by the RHNA as extremely low-income units. The City’s very low-income requirement is 93 units. The number of extremely low income units that the City must plan for shown here was projected using Census data. According to the Comprehensive Housing Affordability Strategy (CHAS), data developed by HUD, 52 percent of households in the city earned less than 50 percent of the AMI. Among these households, 55.1 percent earned incomes below 30 percent (extremely low-income). Therefore, the City’s RHNA allocation of 93 very low-income units was distributed as 51 extremely low-income (52 percent of the 93 very low-income units required by the RHNA) and 42 very low-income units. However, for purposes of identifying adequate sites for the RHNA allocation, State law does not mandate the separate accounting for the extremely low-income category Source: TCAG, 2022. Final Regional Housing Needs Plan.

2.3 Changes in State Law
The Housing Element Update and Zoning Code Update incorporates and addresses all substantive changes to State housing law since the City’s last Housing Element was adopted and certified in 2016, including, but not limited to:
▪ Affordable Housing Streamlined Approval Process: Senate Bill (SB) 35 (2017) ▪ Additional Housing Element Sites Analysis Requirements: Assembly Bill (AB) 1397 (2017) ▪ Affirmatively Furthering Fair Housing: AB 686 (2017)
▪ No-Net-Loss Zoning: SB 14,207 (2017)
▪ By Right Transitional and Permanent Supportive Housing: AB 2162 (2018) and AB 101 (2019) ▪ Accessory Dwelling Units: AB 68 (2019), AB 587 (2019), and AB 671 (2019) ▪ Housing Crisis Act of 2019: SB 330
▪ Emergency and Transitional Housing Act of 2019: AB 139 (2019)

2.4 City of Lindsay General Plan
State law mandates that each city and City in California adopt "a comprehensive, long-term general plan,” for the physical development of its planning area. The City of Lindsay General Plan planning area includes all lands within the City limits. The General Plan is a legal document that serves as City Project Context
Addendum Evaluation 9
of Lindsay “blueprint” or “constitution” for all future land use, development, preservation, and resource conservation decisions. General Plans must be comprehensive and long-term.

The City of Lindsay General Plan, adopted in July 1989, is a long-term document with text and diagrams that express the goals, objectives, and policies necessary to guide the community toward achieving its vision. A General Plan establishes and implements goals and policies for regulating development projects and for balancing population growth with infrastructure availability, agricultural preservation, and natural resource protection. Other goals and policies are directed to resource protection, ensuring the timely availability of public infrastructure and services, and encouraging a well-balanced economy. The plan also integrates new planning concepts endorsed by the City Council and translates Housing Element goals and policies into implementation programs (such as amendments to the City’s code, zoning ordinance, and subdivision regulations) to assure that the City’s vision is implemented.

City decision makers (e.g., City Council and Planning Commission), rely on the General Plan as the basis for development proposals, land use changes, and the provision of public facilities (e.g., roads, parks, fire stations). It is also a policy document that guides decisions related to protecting, enhancing, and providing open space, habitat conservation, arts and recreation programming, and community character.

State law requires that every General Plan, at a minimum, address certain subject categories (called "elements"), which include land use, circulation, housing, conservation, open space, noise, safety, and environmental justice. A General Plan may also address other subjects that are of importance to the community’s future, such as sustainability, community design, and public art. The City of Lindsay’s General Plan includes the following elements (City of Lindsay 1989):
▪ Circulation
▪ Housing
▪ Noise
▪ Land Use
▪ Resource Management
▪ Safety

2.5 City of Lindsay General Plan EIR
The General Plan EIR addressed the potential environmental effects of the planned buildout of Lindsay General Plan through the approximately 20-year period between 1989 to 2010 and concluded that implementation of the General Plan would result in environmental impacts as detailed in Table 3. Proposed mitigation measures in the General Plan EIR were incorporated as policies in the General Plan to reduce potential impacts from project development under the General Plan.

General Plan Buildout Assumptions
The General Plan has a planning horizon year of 2010, but it does not specify or anticipate exactly when buildout would occur, as long-range demographic and economic trends are difficult to predict.

The designation of a site in the General Plan for a certain use does not necessarily mean that the site will be developed or redeveloped with that use during the planning period, as most development depends on property owner initiative.

In 1989, the City of Lindsay had 8,271 residents. The General Plan estimates a total population of 29,980 residents and 9,000 residential units through the buildout of the General Plan (City of Lindsay 1989). Thus, it was anticipated that the population would increase by approximately 21,709 residents. Currently, the City has a population of 12,594 residents and 3,641 residential units (DOF 2024). For the purpose of this Addendum, the proposed Project and its anticipated growth will be compared to the impacts from full buildout of the General Plan.

The Housing Element Update would accommodate 754 units in order to adhere to the City's obligation to address its fair share of regional housing needs, as well as specific State-mandated requirements outlined in the RHNA. The RHNA sets the baseline for the minimum number of housing units that the City must plan for in its Housing Element. This involves providing sufficient sites through the General Plan and zoning. As a result, the projected increase in growth aligns with expectations outlined in the State RHNA accommodation. Therefore, the proposed increase in growth can be considered anticipated as evident by the State RHNA accommodation. Although the proposed buildout could theoretically reach 754 units, it is important to note that the Project is not increasing the overall development potential in the City beyond what was previously included in the General Plan and analyzed as part of the General Plan EIR. Therefore, the proposed Project's buildout aligns and is well below what the General Plan already accommodates. Consequently, comparing the Project's residential units to the General Plan level reveals a net increase of zero.

Further, as noted above, actual population growth in the City of Lindsay since the General Plan EIR was completed (from 1989 to 2024) was 4,323 residents. The addition of 754 units under the proposed Project would not exceed the 9,000 units projected under the General Plan EIR. Rather, the proposed Project is intended to assist the City in achieving the vision of the existing General Plan and provide the necessary housing units to accommodate the anticipated growth and assist the City in meeting its RHNA for their 6th Cycle Housing Element. It is not anticipated that the proposed Project would result in a substantial increase in environmental impacts or create new impacts not previously identified as part of the General Plan EIR. This increase is well within growth projections included in the City of Lindsay General Plan EIR which assumed a population of approximately 29,980 individuals at buildout of the General Plan and is intended to help accommodate the growth in City of Lindsay that was envisioned by the General Plan when adopted.

2.6 Housing Element Update
The 2023-2031 Housing Element Update has the following major components:
▪ An Introduction and Community Engagement section that provides an overview of the housing element update and efforts Lindsay made to engage the public and gather input to inform development of this Housing Element Update (Chapter D1) ▪ An Housing Needs Assessment for the City of Lindsay, summarizing demographic, employment, and housing characteristics. (Chapter D2)
▪ A Housing Constraints Analysis analyzing constraints to the development of adequate and affordable housing including market, governmental, infrastructure, and environmental factors. (Chapter D3)
▪ A Housing Resources section documenting the methodology and results of the Site Inventory Analysis conducted to demonstrate the City of Lindsay’s ability to meet its share of the 6th cycle RHNA. (Chapter D4)
▪ An analysis of issues related to Affirmatively Furthering Fair Housing (AFFH) for the City of Lindsay. (Chapter D5)
▪ A Review of Past Accomplishments to review the housing programs adopted in the 5 th Cycle
Housing Element and evaluate the effectiveness of these programs in delivering housing services and assistance. (Chapter D6)
▪ A Housing Plan, which is comprised of the Goals, Policies, and Programs that the City intends to implement over the next eight-year planning cycle. (Chapter D7) Goals, Policies, and Programs
The primary objective of the Housing Element is to encourage the production of new housing units to meet the RHNA and housing for special needs populations. This is done by adopting a series of goals and policies that facilitate the development of all housing types, explore innovative housing solutions, address the needs of the city’s residents, and affirmatively further fair housing. The 2023- 2031 Housing Element Update goals, policies, and programs are summarized below and referenced throughout this Addendum as appropriate.
▪ Regional Collaboration. The 2023-2031 Housing Element Update includes policies and programs to foster collaboration with jurisdictions within Tulare County to address housing issues. ▪ Housing Development. State law requires that the goals and policies of the Housing Element shall encourage and facilitate the production of a range of types of housing affordable to households of varied income levels. The 2023-2031 Housing Element Update includes policies and programs to provide an adequate supply and range of housing types to meet the diverse needs of residents.

2.7 Site Inventory
The Housing Element must demonstrate through the Site Inventory that the City has capacity to meet its share of the RHNA. Lindsay’s share of the RHNA for the current planning period is 789 units, consisting of 151 lower-income housing units, 178 moderate-income housing units, and 460 above moderate-income housing units. The City must demonstrate the availability of sites with appropriate zoning and development standards that can facilitate and encourage the development of such units. The Housing Element Update includes a Site Inventory that accommodates Lindsay’s share of the RHNA plus a buffer of additional housing units as recommended by the HCD. The Site Inventory identifies opportunity sites, which refer to parcels of land identified in a jurisdiction’s Housing Element site inventory as having realistic potential for residential development within the planning period.

The City would meet its RHNA through planned, approved, and pending projects projected to develop during the planning period and adequate sites identified in the Site Inventory, including opportunity sites.

Credits
Credits refer to planned and approved housing projects and accessory dwelling units (ADUs) that count toward a city's RHNA obligation. These credits represent housing units that have been entitled or permitted, or projected ADUs within the 6th cycle, and help demonstrate progress in meeting the jurisdiction’s required housing production targets. Table 4shows the City’s share of RHNA and housing unit yield per income category that is met by housing credits.

PLANNED, APPROVED, AND PENDING PROJECTS
Jurisdictions may count planned, approved, and pending residential units as credits towards their RHNA. These units can be counted toward each income level according to demonstrated affordability, provided it can be demonstrated that the units can be built within the planning period.

These pipeline projects are mostly concentrated in West Lindsay, and consist of single-family and multifamily projects. As shown in Table 4, the City currently has 322 above moderate-income planned, approved, and pending projects, which may be credited towards the City’s RHNA.

ADUS
Jurisdictions may count the potential for ADU development as credits towards their RHNA.

Legislation in California has recently facilitated the increased permitting and production of ADUs in many communities. Since no ADU permits were recorded in Lindsay during the previous planning period, ADUs are not assumed to contribute to the overall share of RHNA.

Sites in Inventory
The City has not identified enough units through the credits described above (ADU development and pending, approved, or permitted projects) to meet the 6th Cycle RHNA for all categories.

Table 5 shows the City’s RHNA and housing unit yield per site category. Therefore, the City identified 23 opportunity sites to include in the Site Inventory to accommodate 171 lower-income units, 234 moderate-income units, and 349 above moderate-income units. The summary of the residential Site Inventory is presented in Table 5.

HOUSING OPPORTUNITY SITES
Housing Opportunity Sites refer to specific parcels of land identified by a city or county as suitable for residential development to accommodate projected housing needs, particularly for different income levels. These sites are included in the Site Inventory, a key component of the Housing Element required by California State law (Government Code Section 65583.2).

As shown in Figure 3, the Site Inventory is broken up into three distinct geographic areas of the city (East, South, and West Lindsay). Please refer to Chapter D4, Lindsay Housing Resources, of the Housing Element Update for details on housing opportunity sites.

Of the 23 sites included in the City’s Site Inventory, 12 are vacant and 11 are on sites with currently operational agricultural uses (nonvacant sites). The Site Inventory includes a surplus of 20 lowerincome units, giving the City a 13 percent buffer for this income category.

2.8 Buildout of Proposed Project and Comparison to
the General Plan EIR
The project is programmatic in nature. It is a policy document that includes targeted programs that facilitate and guide housing development towards designated housing opportunity sites. The Housing Element does not propose to rezone sites to meet the City’s RHNA obligations; it identifies housing opportunity sites which are already properly zoned for housing development. This addendum conducts a comprehensive analysis of Project implementation and evaluates environmental effects of these programs and their cumulative impacts.

The total buildout for the Housing Element Update would be 754 units. As discussed above, new development under the General Plan was anticipated to result in an increase in the city’s population by 21,709 new residents for a total of 29,980 residents by 2010 (City of Lindsay 1989).

CEQA Baseline and Comparison to the General Plan EIR
The CEQA baseline for this analysis is the maximum allowable development for residential uses under the City’s General Plan EIR. The General Plan EIR assumed a buildout of 9,000 new residential units and 21,000 new residents (City of Lindsay 1989). Table 6 compares the potential buildout under the Housing Element Update to the buildout contemplated in the General Plan EIR.

As shown in Table 6, Lindsay had a population of 8,271 in 1989 (City of Lindsay 1989). As of 2024, Lindsay has a population of 12,594 and 3,557 households as of May 2024 (California Department of Finance [DOF] 2024). This represents an increase of 4,323 residents and 983 housing units since the General Plan EIR was certified. The growth in Lindsay occurred at a slower rate than was anticipated by the 1989 General Plan, and there is a remaining capacity of 5,443 housing units, or 17,386 persons, before the full anticipated General Plan buildout is reached.

The proposed Housing Element Update is expected to result in an increase of 754 units, or 2,669 residents1to meet its State-mandated RHNA. This would result in a total city population of 15,263, which is below the anticipated General Plan total buildout of 29,980 residents. As shown in Table 6, this increase is well within growth projections anticipated in the City of Lindsay’s General Plan EIR.

The projected growth aligns with RHNA requirements and is consistent with regional housing expectation. Additionally, the Housing Element Update does not directly drive population growth, but rather aims to prepare for anticipated development within the region. The proposed Project is intended to assist the City in achieving the vision of the existing 1989 General Plan and provide the necessary housing units to accommodate the anticipated growth and assist the City in meeting its RHNA for the 6th Cycle Housing Element period.

The Project would not exceed General Plan buildout projections, and because the General Plan EIR analyzed impacts associated with full General Plan buildout, the Project would not be expected to result in new significant environmental effects or a substantial increase in the severity of previously identified significant effects. A full analysis of the potential for new or substantially more severe environmental effects is provided in Section 6, Addendum Evaluation. 1Based on a residential unit increase of 754 units multiplied by 3.54 persons per household (DOF 2024) City of Lindsay

2.9 Zoning Text Amendment
The City of Lindsay is updating its Zoning Code to establish a By-Right Approval Ordinance (new Section 18.15.130, By Right Approvals). The ordinance will require ministerial approval for eligible affordable housing projects, and per State law, exempts those projects from CEQA. Codified under Government Code Sections 65583.2 and 65913.4, this applies to projects that include at least 20 percent of units affordable to low-income households on Housing Element inventory sites assumed to accommodate lower-income development and that are vacant and used in two prior Housing Element site inventories, or nonvacant and listed in one prior Housing Element site inventory. The ordinance brings the Zoning Code into compliance with State law, allowing projects to proceed without discretionary review and making them exempt from CEQA. Sites that are subject to by-right approval requirements are listed in Table 7, below. These sites are listed in the City’s 6th Cycle Housing Element Site Inventory and meet the criteria for reuse sites described above.

2.10 Zoning Map Amendment
The proposed Zoning Map Amendment would rezone 13 parcels from IL (Limited Industrial) to MXU (mixed-use) to establish consistency with their underlying General Plan Land Use designations. All development must be consistent with the General Plan and Zoning Ordinance, and therefore the change in zoning would not allow development not already allowed by the General Plan. The amendment to the Zoning Map only brings the sites’ zoning into conformance with the General Plan Land Use designation.

Overview of CEQA Guidelines Sections 15162 and 15164
Addendum Evaluation 17
3 Overview of CEQA Guidelines Sections
15162 and 15164
CEQA Guidelines Sections 15162 and 15164 set forth the criteria for determining the appropriate additional environmental documentation, if any, to be completed when a project has a previously certified EIR.

CEQA Guidelines Section 15164 states that a lead agency shall prepare an addendum to a previously certified EIR if some changes or additions are necessary. None of the conditions described in Section 15162 calling for preparation of a subsequent EIR have occurred. CEQA Guidelines Section 15162(a) states that no Subsequent or Supplemental EIR shall be prepared for a project with a certified EIR unless the lead agency determines, based on substantial evidence in the light of the whole record, one or more of the following:

1. Substantial changes are proposed in the project that will require major revisions of the previous EIR due to the involvement of new significant environmental effects or a substantial increase in the severity of previously identified significant effects.

2. Substantial changes occur with respect to the circumstances under which the project is undertaken which will require major revisions of the previous EIR due to the involvement of new significant environmental effects or a substantial increase in the severity of previously identified significant effects.

3. New information of substantial importance, which was not known and could not have been known with the exercise of reasonable diligence at the time the previous EIR was certified as complete, shows any of the following:

A. The project will have one or more significant effects not discussed in the previous EIR.

B. Significant effects previously examined will be substantially more severe than shown in the previous EIR.

C. Mitigation measures or alternatives previously found not to be feasible would in fact be feasible and would substantially reduce one or more significant effects of the project, but the project proponents decline to adopt the mitigation measure or alternative.

D. Mitigation measures or alternatives that are considerably different from those analyzed in the previous EIR would substantially reduce one or more significant effects on the environment, but the project proponents decline to adopt the mitigation measure or alternative.

The analysis pursuant to CEQA Guidelines Section 15162 demonstrates whether the lead agency can approve the activity as being within the scope of the existing certified EIR, that an addendum to the existing EIR would be appropriate, and no new environmental document, such as a new EIR, would be required. The addendum need not be circulated for public review but can be included in or attached to the Final EIR, and the decision-making body shall consider the addendum with the Final EIR prior to deciding on the Project.

According to CEQA Guidelines Section 15164, an addendum to a previously certified EIR is the appropriate environmental document in instances when “only minor technical changes or additions are necessary” and when the new information does not involve new significant environmental City of Lindsay
City of Lindsay Housing Element Update 2023-2031
18 effects or a substantial increase in the severity of a significant effect beyond those identified in the previous EIR. CEQA Guidelines Section 15164 states that:
a. The lead agency or responsible agency shall prepare an addendum to a previously certified EIR if some changes or additions are necessary but none of the conditions described in Section 15162 calling for preparation of a subsequent EIR have occurred. b. An addendum to an adopted negative declaration may be prepared if only minor technical changes or additions are necessary or none of the conditions described in Section 15162 calling for the preparation of a subsequent EIR have occurred.
c. An addendum need not be circulated for public review but can be included in or attached to the final EIR.
d. The decision-making body shall consider the addendum with the final EIR prior to making a decision on the project.
e. A brief explanation of the decision not to prepare a subsequent EIR pursuant to Section 15162 should be included in an addendum to an EIR, the lead agency’s findings on the project, or elsewhere in the record.

The City has prepared this Addendum, pursuant to CEQA Guidelines Sections 15162 and 15164, to evaluate whether the Project’s environmental impacts are covered by and within the scope of the City of Lindsay’s General Plan EIR (certified July 1989, State Clearinghouse #1989080714). This Addendum details any changes in the Project, changes in circumstances under which the Project is undertaken, and/or "new information of substantial importance" that may cause one or more effects to environmental resources.

The analysis herein substantiates and supports the City’s determination that the proposed Project is within the scope of the General Plan EIR, does not require subsequent action under CEQA Guidelines Section 15162 and, in conjunction with the EIR, adequately analyzes potential environmental impacts.

5.1 General Plan Consistency
The Housing Element is a component of the General Plan and is periodically updated pursuant to State law. Therefore, the project is consistent with the vision of the General Plan and is supported by goals and policies of the other General Plan Elements. The General Plan Elements and policies that correspond with the goals and policies of the Housing Element are summarized below:
▪ The Land Use Element includes goals, objectives, policies, and standards for residential, commercial, industrial, agricultural, and public and institutional development within Lindsay. It includes the land use classification system and buildout of the General Plan. ▪ The Community Development Element includes goals, objectives, policies, and standards for establishing a safe and efficient transportation system that provides adequate access throughout the city.
▪ The Resource Management Element includes goals, objectives, policies, and standards for the conservation, development, and use of open space and natural resources within the city.

Adoption of the Housing Element Update will require the City to amend the General Plan by replacing the existing Housing Element with the proposed Housing Element Update.

5.2 Preliminary Environmental Constraints
State housing law requires the city to review both governmental and non-governmental constraints to the maintenance and production of housing for all income levels. Since local governmental actions can restrict the development and increase the cost of housing, State law requires the Housing Element to “address and, where appropriate and legally possible, remove governmental constraints to the maintenance, improvement, and development of housing” (Government Code Section 65583[c][3]). Several factors can constrain residential development. These include market constraints, such as development costs and interest rates, and governmental constraints, which include land use controls, fees, processing times, and development standards, among others. In addition, environmental and infrastructure constraints can also impede residential development.

For purposes of the Addendum, only the potential environmental constraints, as they relate to CEQA, were evaluated.

Environmental constraints to residential development typically relate to the presence of sensitive habitat, flooding, topography, and other natural and physical characteristics that can limit the amount of development in an area or increase the cost of development. The Housing Element Update, in and of itself, does not propose specific development projects, but rather puts forth goals, policies, and programs that support housing efforts in Lindsay. Future housing development projects would be subject to developmental review to determine potential impacts specific to that project site.

City of Lindsay
City of Lindsay Housing Element Update 2023-2031
22 6 Addendum Evaluation

6.1 Introduction
As discussed in Section 2.9, above, the total buildout for the Housing Element Update would be 754 units and the Zoning Code Update would not result in physical changes. All of these units would be consistent with the growth projections of the General Plan, and therefore would be within the scope of the General Plan EIR since growth within the city has occurred at a slower rate than was anticipated. Therefore, growth anticipated and evaluated under the General Plan is applicable to the proposed Project. General Plan EIR findings and analysis of the proposed Project’s impacts are included for each Appendix G section below.

6.2 Aesthetics
General Plan EIR Findings
The General Plan EIR does not discuss aesthetic impacts in detail; however, because it is now required, a discussion of impacts is provided below.

Addendum Analysis
The Housing Element Update is a policy document that identifies 754 housing opportunity sites located throughout the City that were evaluated previously for potential environmental impacts in the General Plan EIR. The Zoning Code Update would not result in any physical development. The Zoning Map Amendment only establishes consistency between subject parcels’ zoning and land use designations and would not change the development potential of the rezoned sites.

The Housing Element Update, does not directly include specific housing developments, but puts forth goals and policies that support housing efforts in Lindsay consistent with the overall vision of the General Plan. Because it is a policy document, the Housing Element Update would not, in and of itself, result in impacts to scenic vistas, scenic resources, or visual character, and will not create new sources of substantial light or glare which could adversely affects views. In addition, the proposed buildout would be within the buildout contemplated in the General Plan EIR. The Zoning Code Update would exempt certain housing projects from further CEQA review, and would prohibit any discretionary review, which could result in some of the City’s discretionary development standards or guidelines not being applied to a qualifying project. However, these limitations are already required under State law, so the Zoning Code Update does not result in any new impacts to aesthetics.

All future development would be subject to adopted development guidelines, including standards that govern visual quality and community design, including General Plan policies in the Land Use Element that preserve the community image. Specifically, future development would be required to comply with General Plan policies.

Conclusion
The project would not result in impacts beyond those addressed or analyzed in the General Plan EIR nor present new information that shows impacts would be more significant than those described in Addendum Evaluation
Addendum Evaluation 23
the General Plan EIR. Therefore, the General Plan EIR applies to the project and no additional environmental assessment of aesthetics is required.

6.3 Agriculture and Forestry
General Plan EIR Findings
Agriculture and forestry resources are discussed on page 90 of Section D in the General Plan EIR.

The General Plan EIR determined that implementation of the General Plan would be less than significant with mitigation measures. The mitigation measures would involve a phased development policy, redesignation of lands, prevention of further fragmentation of the urban pattern, orderly conversion, and efficient urban development.

Addendum Analysis
The Housing Element Update is a policy document that identifies 754 housing opportunity sites located throughout the City that were evaluated previously for potential environmental impacts in the General Plan EIR. The Zoning Code Update would not result in any physical development. The Zoning Map Amendment only establishes consistency between subject parcels’ zoning and land use designations and would not change the development potential of the rezoned sites.

As outlined under Section 2.6, Accommodation of the RHNA, 13 sites in the Site Inventory are located on land currently designated important farmland. However, the land is currently zoned for residential or mixed use land uses, and the existing agricultural uses are not subject to the Williamson Act. The General Plan policies and actions aim to focus new growth and development at infill locations and to protect open space areas and agricultural lands, including policies in the Community Development and Resource Management Elements, which aim to reduce the impact of urbanization on agricultural lands. Future development facilitated by the Housing Element Update would be required to adhere to these policies and actions, thereby reducing impacts related to the loss of Prime Farmland, Farmland of Statewide Importance, and Unique Farmland to the furthest extent possible, and would continue to be required with implementation of the proposed Project.

Additionally, because it is a policy document, the Housing Element Update would not directly result in impacts to farmland. The Housing Element Update does not include specific projects involving new housing development but puts forth goals and policies that support housing efforts in City of Lindsay consistent with the overall vision of the General Plan. The proposed buildout would be within the buildout contemplated in the General Plan EIR. The proposed Project would be required to adhere to General Plan policies. This includes Open Space for Managed Resource Production Policy 1, which commits the city to avoid the premature conversion of agricultural lands inside and outside the city limits.

Future development facilitated by the Housing Element Update would undergo project-specific developmental review, including design review, and would be subject to adopted development regulations. The proposed Project would implement the General Plan, thereby resulting in the same agriculture and forestry impacts from new development as evaluated in the certified EIR.

Conclusion
The adoption of the project does not involve changes to the current adopted land use or zoning designations. The Project would not result in impacts beyond those addressed or analyzed in the General Plan EIR nor present new information that shows impacts would be more significant than City of Lindsay
City of Lindsay Housing Element Update 2023-2031
24 those described in the General Plan EIR. Therefore, the General Plan EIR applies to the project and no additional environmental assessment of agriculture and forestry resources is required.

6.4 Air Quality
General Plan EIR Findings
Air quality is discussed on page 89 of Section D in the General Plan EIR. The General Plan EIR determined that the General Plan would result in less than significant impacts related to air quality.

Mitigation measures are also included to enhance air quality. These include construction of Route 65 to expressway standards, arterial street improvement, intersection widening and signalization, provision of left-hand turn lanes, industrial performance standards, industrial process review, and construction dust control.

Addendum Analysis
The Housing Element Update is a policy document consistent with the General Plan. The Housing Element Update includes 754 housing opportunity sites located throughout the City that were evaluated previously for potential environmental impacts in the General Plan EIR. that could accommodate new or additional housing units. Most vacant sites are infill sites where development and infrastructure already exist throughout the area. The Zoning Code Update does not involve any physical development. The Zoning Map amendment does not change the development potential of the rezoned sites and does not result in any new impacts to air quality.

The proposed Housing Element Update buildout would be within the buildout contemplated in the General Plan EIR. The Housing Element Update does not include specific projects involving new housing development but puts forth goals and policies that support housing efforts in Lindsay consistent with the overall vision of the General Plan. Because it is a policy document, the Housing Element Update would not directly result in impacts to air quality. Potential air quality-related impacts cannot be assessed in a meaningful way until a project-specific analysis is done covering the size of the development which includes construction air quality emissions, project operational emissions and potential vehicle miles traveled. Short-term air quality impacts resulting from construction of the sites, such as dust generated by clearing and grading activities, exhaust emissions from gas- and diesel-powered construction equipment, and vehicular emissions associated with the commuting of construction workers will be subject to San Joaquin Valley Air Pollution Control District (SJVAPCD) rules and protocols. Similarly, operational impacts would be addressed by provisions in the General Plan, the City’s Municipal Code, and other regulations and standards that govern air quality in Lindsay.

The General Plan policies and actions support the reduction of air quality impacts, including Open Space for Health, Welfare, and Well-Being Policies 1 through 5 on page 63, which would require industrial process reviews performed by licensed engineers to ensure compliance with air quality standards and also mandate measures to control dust during construction, including watering, equipment use restrictions, and prohibiting land grading during high winds. Future development facilitated by the Housing Element Update would be required to adhere to these policies and actions.

Addendum Evaluation
Addendum Evaluation 25
Conclusion
The adoption of the project would not result in air quality impacts beyond those addressed or analyzed in the General Plan EIR, nor present new information that shows impacts would be more significant than those described in the General Plan EIR. Therefore, the General Plan EIR applies to the projects and no additional environmental assessment of air quality is required.

6.5 Biological Resources
General Plan EIR Findings
Biological resources are discussed in Part V, Resource Management Element, of the General Plan EIR. The General Plan EIR found that the General Plan would result in less than significant impacts to biological resources.

Addendum Analysis
The Housing Element Update is a policy document that identifies 754 housing opportunity sites located throughout the City that were evaluated previously for potential environmental impacts in the General Plan EIR. Furthermore, protection of special status species and habitat is mandated by federal and State laws. Future development would be required to comply with General Plan policies related to species and habitat protection and tree preservation, including the mitigation measures stated in the General Plan EIR. The Zoning Code Update does not involve any physical development.

The Zoning Map Amendment only establishes consistency between subject parcels’ zoning and land use designations and would not change the development potential of the rezoned sites.

The General Plan policies and actions aim to focus new growth and development at infill locations and to protect biological resources. These include the Resource Management Element policies under Issue seven, biotic resources, which aim to minimize the impact of development on biotic resources through the protection of trees and vegetation. Future development facilitated by the Housing Element Update would be required to adhere to these policies and actions.

The Housing Element Update does not include specific projects involving new housing development, but puts forth goals and policies that support housing efforts in Lindsay consistent with the overall vision of the General Plan.

The adoption of the Housing Element Update does not involve changes to the current adopted land use or zoning designations. The adoption of the Housing Element Update would not result in biological impacts beyond those addressed or analyzed in the General Plan EIR nor present new information that shows impacts would be more significant than those described in the General Plan EIR. Therefore, the resources and conservation or habitat management plans. In addition, the proposed buildout would be within the buildout contemplated in the General Plan EIR.

Conclusion
General Plan EIR applies to the project and no additional environmental assessment of biological resources is required.

City of Lindsay
City of Lindsay Housing Element Update 2023-2031
26 6.6 Cultural Resources
General Plan EIR Findings
The General Plan EIR discusses cultural resources on page 91 of Section D in the General Plan EIR.

The General Plan EIR determined that there are no archaeological or cultural resources of known significance within the planning area. Therefore, implementation of the General Plan would result in no impact on cultural resources.

Addendum Analysis
The Housing Element Update is a policy document consistent with the General Plan. The Housing Element Update includes 754 housing opportunity sites located throughout the City that were evaluated previously for potential environmental impacts in the General Plan EIR. While the vacant sites consist of currently undeveloped land, policies and actions from the General Plan would be protective of potential on-site cultural resources. As noted in the General Plan EIR (page 91), future development facilitated by the Housing Element Update would be required to halt construction when evidence of cultural resources are unearthed until the extent and significance of the find is properly catalogued and evaluated by appropriate authorities recognized by the State of California.

The Zoning Code Update would not result in any physical development. The Zoning Map Amendment only establishes consistency between subject parcels’ zoning and land use designations and would not change the development potential of the rezoned sites.

The City does not contain any known archaeological or cultural resources. However, future development would be evaluated for conformance with the City’s General Plan, Municipal Code, and other applicable State and local regulations. Future development would also be required to adhere to the Health and Safety Code Section 7050.5, Public Resources Code Section 5097.98, and the California Code of Regulations Section 15064.5(e) which would reduce impacts on human remains.

Conclusion
The adoption of the project does not involve changes to the current adopted land use or zoning designations. The project would not result in impacts beyond those addressed or analyzed in the General Plan EIR nor present new information that shows impacts would be more significant than those described in the General Plan EIR. Therefore, the General Plan EIR applies to the project and no additional environmental assessment of cultural resources is required.

6.7 Energy
General Plan EIR Findings
The General Plan EIR does not discuss energy impacts in detail; however, because it is now required, a discussion of impacts is provided below.

Addendum Evaluation
Addendum Evaluation 27
Addendum Analysis
The Housing Element Update is a policy document that identifies 754 housing opportunity sites located throughout the City that were evaluated previously for potential environmental impacts in the General Plan EIR. New projects would be required to adhere to the current California Energy Code and CALGreen standards, which include requirements for the use of more energy-efficient design and technologies as well as the incorporation of more renewable energy resources into building design than the CALGreen standards that were in place during the General Plan EIR analysis.

Although future projects would involve the consumption of non-renewable energy resources such as electricity, natural gas, propane, gasoline, and diesel, they would be required to comply with State and local regulations pertaining to energy, such as Title 20, Energy Building Regulation, and Title 24, Energy Conservation Standards, of the California Code of Regulations (CCR). Future development facilitated by the Housing Element Update would be required to adhere to these policies and actions.

The Housing Element Update does not include a specific project involving a new housing development but puts forth goals and policies that support housing efforts in Lindsay consistent with the overall vision of the General Plan. Because it is a policy document, the Housing Element Update would not directly result in impacts to energy resources or adopted plans for renewable or efficient energy use. In addition, the proposed buildout would be within the buildout contemplated in the General Plan EIR.

Conclusion
The adoption of the project does not involve changes to the current adopted land uses or zoning designations. The project would not result in impacts beyond those addressed or analyzed in the General Plan EIR nor present new information that shows impacts would be more significant than those described in the General Plan EIR. Therefore, the General Plan EIR applies to the project and no additional environmental assessment of energy is required.

6.8 Geology and Soils
General Plan EIR Findings
The General Plan EIR discusses geology and soils in Part VI of the General Plan document. The General Plan EIR determined that impacts regarding seismic safety as a result of General Plan implementation would be less than significant.

Addendum Analysis
The Housing Element Update is a policy document that identifies 754 housing opportunity sites located throughout the City that were evaluated previously for potential environmental impacts in the General Plan EIR. Most vacant housing opportunity sites are infill sites where development and infrastructure already exist throughout the area. As discussed in the General Plan EIR, Lindsay is susceptible to earthquake-related hazards such as ground shaking and liquefaction. Nonetheless, compliance with the California Building Code, existing State and local regulations, and the policies and actions of the General Plan, including policies in the Hazard Management Element which would City of Lindsay
City of Lindsay Housing Element Update 2023-2031
28 require all new buildings to conform to the latest seismic requirements of the UBC as a minimum standard, would ensure impacts related to geology and soils are reduced to a less than significant level.

The Housing Element Update does not include specific projects involving a new housing development but puts forth goals and policies that support housing efforts in Lindsay consistent with the overall vision of the General Plan. Because it is a policy document, the Housing Element Update would not, in and of itself, result in impacts to geology and soils. In addition, the proposed buildout would be within the buildout contemplated in the General Plan EIR. The Zoning Code Update would not result in any physical development. The Zoning Map Amendment only establishes consistency between subject parcels’ zoning and land use designations and would not change the development potential of the rezoned sites.

Conclusion
The adoption of the project does not involve changes to the current adopted land use or zoning designations. The adoption of the project would not result in geology and soils impacts beyond those addressed or analyzed in the General Plan EIR nor present new information that shows impacts would be more significant than those described in the General Plan EIR. Therefore, the General Plan EIR applies to the proposed Project and no additional environmental assessment of geology and soils is required.

6.9 Greenhouse Gas Emissions
General Plan EIR Findings
The General Plan EIR does not discuss greenhouse gas emissions impacts in detail; however, because it is now required, a discussion of impacts is provided below.

Addendum Analysis
The General Plan goals and policies support reduction of greenhouse gas emissions impacts. Policies and actions in the General Plan included as mitigation in the General Plan EIR are implemented to help reduce impacts to the greatest extent possible. Future development facilitated by the Housing Element Update would be required to adhere to these policies and actions. The Zoning Code Update would not result in any physical development. The Zoning Map Amendment only establishes consistency between subject parcels’ zoning and land use designations and would not change the development potential of the rezoned sites.

Potential greenhouse gas emission impacts cannot be assessed in a meaningful way until a projectspecific analysis that takes into account factors including the size of the development, construction greenhouse gas emissions, project operational emissions, and potential vehicle miles traveled is conducted. Because it is a policy document, the Housing Element Update would not, in and of itself, result in impacts to greenhouse gas emissions or adopted plans for the purpose of reducing greenhouse gases. In addition, the proposed buildout would be within the buildout contemplated in Addendum Evaluation
Addendum Evaluation 29
the General Plan EIR. Future development consistent with the Housing Element Update would be required to adhere to applicable climate and greenhouse gas emissions regulations including consistency with SB 32, AB 32, SB 97, and SB 375.

Conclusion
The adoption of the project would not result in greenhouse gas emissions impacts beyond those addressed or analyzed in the General Plan EIR nor present new information that shows impacts would be more significant than those described in the General Plan EIR. Therefore, the General Plan EIR applies to the proposed project and no additional environmental assessment of GHG emissions is required.

6.10 Hazards and Hazardous Materials
General Plan EIR Findings
The General Plan EIR does not discuss hazards and hazardous materials impacts in detail; however, because it is now required, a discussion of impacts is provided below.

The Housing Element Update does not include specific projects involving new housing development but puts forth goals and policies that support housing efforts in Lindsay consistent with the overall vision of the General Plan. Because it is a policy document, the Housing Element Update would not, in and of itself, result in impacts to hydrology or water quality. In addition, the proposed buildout would be within the buildout contemplated in the General Plan EIR. Since 12 of the sites are currently vacant, future projects would increase impervious surfaces on the sites which would increase the rate and amount of surface runoff. Nonetheless, all future development consistent with the Housing Element Update would be required to comply with applicable State and local regulations related to hydrology and water quality.

6.12 Land Use and Planning
General Plan EIR Findings
Land use and planning are discussed on page 91 of Section D in the General Plan EIR. The General Plan EIR determined that implementation of the General Plan would result in less than significant impacts related to land use conflicts.

Addendum Evaluation
Addendum Evaluation 31
Addendum Analysis
The General Plan goals and policies support reduction of impacts due to land use and planning.

However, no formal land use changes or physical development are proposed at the time of adoption of the Housing Element. Future development facilitated by the Housing Element Update would be required to adhere to these policies and actions. The Zoning Code Update would not result in any physical development. The Zoning Map Amendment only establishes consistency between subject parcels’ zoning and land use designations and would not change the development potential of the rezoned sites.

Conclusion
The adoption of the project would not result in land use and planning impacts beyond those addressed or analyzed in the General Plan EIR nor present new information that shows impacts would be more significant than those described in the General Plan EIR. Therefore, the General Plan EIR applies to the proposed project and no additional environmental assessment of land use and planning is required.

6.13 Mineral Resources
General Plan EIR Findings
The General Plan EIR does not discuss mineral resources impacts in detail; however, because it is now required, a discussion of impacts is provided below.

Addendum Analysis
The Housing Element Update is a policy document consistent with the General Plan. The Housing Element Update includes 754 housing opportunity sites located throughout the City that were evaluated previously for potential environmental impacts in the General Plan EIR. The City does not contain significant mineral resources and is not in a mineral resource zone (DOC 1997). Additionally, buildout of the Housing Element Update would not affect mineral resources. The Zoning Code Update would not result in any physical development. The Zoning Map Amendment only establishes consistency between subject parcels’ zoning and land use designations and would not change the development potential of the rezoned sites.

Conclusion
The adoption of the project would not involve changes to mineral resource recovery sites or alter or displace any mineral resource activities. The proposed projects would not result in mineral resource impacts beyond those addressed or analyzed in the General Plan EIR nor present new information that shows impacts would be more significant than those described in the General Plan EIR.

Therefore, the General Plan EIR applies to the proposed Project, and no additional environmental assessment of mineral resources is required.

6.14 Noise
General Plan EIR Findings
Noise is discussed in Part VI of the General Plan. The General Plan EIR determined that impacts related to noise would be less than significant.

Addendum Analysis
The General Plan goals and policies support reduction of noise-related impacts. Policies and actions in the General Plan included as mitigation in the General Plan EIR are implemented to help reduce noise-related impacts to the greatest extent possible. Future development facilitated by the Housing Element Update would be required to adhere to these policies and actions. The Zoning Code Update would not result in any physical development. The Zoning Map Amendment only establishes consistency between subject parcels’ zoning and land use designations and would not change the development potential of the rezoned sites.

Potential noise impacts for projects requiring discretionary approval cannot be assessed in a meaningful way until a project-specific analysis, if required, is done covering the size of the development which includes construction noise, project operational noise and traffic-related noise.

The Housing Element Update does not include specific projects involving new housing development but puts forth goals and policies that support housing efforts in Lindsay consistent with the overall vision of the General Plan. Because it is a policy document, the Housing Element Update would not directly result in noise-related impacts. In addition, the proposed buildout would be within the buildout contemplated in the General Plan EIR. All future development consistent with the Housing Element Update would be required to comply with all relevant policies and guidelines, including the mitigation measures in the General Plan EIR.

Conclusion
The adoption of the project does not involve changes to the current adopted land uses or zoning designations. The project would not result in impacts beyond those addressed or analyzed in the General Plan EIR nor present new information that shows impacts would be more significant than Addendum Evaluation

6.19 Tribal Cultural Resources
General Plan EIR Findings
The General Plan EIR does not discuss tribal cultural resources impacts in detail; however, because it is now required, a discussion of impacts is provided below.

Addendum Analysis
In accordance with the requirements of SB 18, the City requested a tribal contact list from the California Native America Heritage Commission (NAHC) on August 20, 2024. NAHC responded to the City’s request on August 23, 2024, providing a list of 32 contacts from 20 Native American tribal organizations that should be invited to consult with the City.

On October 21, 2024, the City sent letters inviting Big Pine Paiute Tribe of the Owens Valley, Big Sandy Rancheria of Western Mono Indians, Bishop Paiute Tribe, Cold Springs Rancheria of Mono Indians of California, Death Valley Timbi-sha Shoshone Tribe, Dumna Wo-Wah Tribal Government, Dunlap Band of Mono Indians, Fort Independence Indian Community of Paiutes, Kern Valley Indian Community, Kitanemuk & Yowlumne Tejon Indians, Lone Pine Paiute-Shoshone Tribe, Mono Lake Kutzadika Tribe, North Fork Mono Tribe, Santa Rosa Rancheria Tachi Yokut Tribe, Table Mountain Rancheria, Traditional Choinumni Tribe, Tubatulabals of Kern Valley, Tule River Indian Tribe, Utu Utu Gwaitu Tribe of the Benton Paiute Reservation, and the Wuksachi Indian Tribe/Eshom Valley Band to consult with the City under the provisions SB 18. The invitations advised the tribes that if consultation was desired, then they must formally accept the invitation in writing within 90 days of receipt of the City’s letter pursuant to SB 18. The City received no responses.

The General Plan goals and policies support reduction of impacts to tribal cultural resources. Policies and actions in the General Plan included as mitigation in the General Plan EIR are implemented to help reduce impacts to the greatest extent possible. These policies and actions would be required with implementation of the Housing Element Update.

The Housing Element Update does not include specific projects involving new housing development but puts forth goals and policies that support housing efforts in Lindsay consistent with the overall vision of the General Plan. Because it is a policy document, the Housing Element Update would not, in and of itself, result in impacts to tribal cultural resources. The Zoning Code Update would not result in any physical development. The Zoning Map Amendment only establishes consistency between subject parcels’ zoning and land use designations and would not change the development potential of the rezoned sites.

Addendum Evaluation

Because it is a policy document, the Housing Element Update would not directly result in impacts to wildfire. The nearest very high fire hazard severity zone (VHFHSZ) is located approximately 9 miles northeast of Lindsay. Future development consistent with the Housing Element Update would be required to comply with applicable regulations and requirements related to wildfire. These include policies in the General Plan under the Safety Element, which requires the City to maintain a street system capable of addressing urban fires and ensuring the safe evacuation of residents during emergencies.

Cumulative Impacts
Addendum Evaluation 39
7 Cumulative Impacts
In addition to the specific impacts of individual projects, CEQA requires consideration of potential cumulative impacts of the proposed Project. CEQA defines “cumulative impacts” as two or more individual impacts that, when considered together, are substantial or will compound other environmental impacts. Cumulative impacts are the combined changes in the environment that result from the incremental impact of development of the proposed Project and other past, present, and probable future projects producing related or cumulative impacts. For example, noise impacts of two nearby projects may be less than significant when analyzed separately but could have a significant impact when analyzed together. The cumulative impact analysis provides a reasonable forecast of future environmental conditions and can more accurately gauge the effects of a series of projects.

CEQA Guidelines Section 15130 requires cumulative impact analysis in EIRs to consider either a list of planned and pending projects that may contribute to cumulative effects or a summary of projections contained in an adopted planning document such as a general plan.

7.1 General Plan EIR Findings
Cumulative impacts of the General Plan were considered based on the geographic areas immediately surrounding the proposed project location. The cumulative analysis considered development allowed by existing general plan documents for adjacent jurisdictions. The General Plan EIR determined that impacts to air quality, hydrology and water quality, hazards and hazardous materials, noise, population and housing, public services, and cultural resources would be less than cumulatively considerable. Impacts to transportation would be significant, unavoidable, and cumulatively considerable.

7.2 Addendum Analysis
Since certification of the 1989 General Plan EIR, there has been new development proposed within the city that was not considered as part of the 1989 General Plan EIR. However, there are no new substantial cumulative projects in the city or adjacent jurisdictions that were not previously considered in the 1989 General Plan EIR cumulative impact analysis. This is because the scale and nature of the new development is consistent with the growth projections and land use patterns already analyzed in the 1989 EIR, ensuring that no new cumulative impacts would arise.

The cumulative conditions in the 1989 General Plan EIR have not substantially changed; therefore, the cumulative setting in the 1989 General Plan EIR remains the same for the purposes of this analysis. The proposed Project would not result in new impacts compared to the 1989 General Plan EIR as analyzed in this Addendum. The Project would not modify the physical development area of the city. Therefore, no new or additional cumulatively considerable contributions to a significant cumulative impact would occur as a result of the Project.

City of Lindsay
City of Lindsay Housing Element Update 2023-2031
40 7.3 Conclusion
The proposed Project would not result in new or more severe cumulatively considerable impacts than were identified in the General Plan EIR. No new or substantially more severe significant effects would occur to cumulative impacts, and no new mitigation measures are required. No substantial changes have occurred that require major revisions to the General Plan EIR. There is no new information indicating that the proposed Project would have new significant impacts or substantially more severe significant impacts with respect to cumulative impacts than were identified in the General Plan EIR. None of the conditions listed in CEQA Guidelines Section 15162 requiring preparation of a subsequent EIR have been met.

Conclusion
Addendum Evaluation 41
8 Conclusion
The City of Lindsay, acting as the lead agency, has determined that an addendum to the General Plan EIR is the appropriate environmental document under CEQA because the proposed Project would not require revisions to the certified General Plan EIR due to the involvement of new significant environmental effects or substantial increases in the severity of significant effects previously identified in the General Plan EIR.

There are no changed circumstances or new information that meet the standards requiring further environmental review under CEQA Guidelines Section 15162. Thus, these circumstances and information would not result in new or more severe impacts beyond what were addressed in the General Plan EIR and would not meet any other standards under CEQA Guidelines Section 15162(a)(3). No additional analysis is required based on the discussions throughout this addendum.

The proposed Housing Element Update would not involve development in areas not assumed for development in the General Plan EIR, nor would it result in population growth and density beyond what was analyzed in the General Plan EIR or anticipated as evident by the State RHNA accommodation. The Project would not result in significant or substantially more severe impacts that were not discussed in the General Plan EIR. Also, there are no previously identified significant effects which, as a result of substantial new information that was not known at the time of the previous environmental review, would be substantially more severe than discussed in the General Plan EIR. Accordingly, no additional CEQA review is required.

CEQA Guidelines Section 15164 states that “[t]he lead agency or a responsible agency shall prepare an addendum to a previously certified EIR if some changes or additions are necessary but none of the conditions described in CEQA Guidelines Section 15162 calling for preparation of a subsequent EIR have occurred.” An addendum is therefore appropriate because, as explained above, none of the conditions calling for preparation of a subsequent EIR have occurred.

1. A nonconforming use is a use of a structure or land which was lawfully established and maintained prior to the adoption of this title, but which does not conform with the use regulations for the district in which it is located. This section is intended to limit the number and extent of nonconforming uses by limiting their enlargement and prohibiting their reestablishment after abandonment, and by prohibiting the alteration of the structures they occupy and their restoration after destruction.

2. A nonconforming structure is a structure which waslawfully erected prior to the adoption of this title, but which does not conform with the standards of coverage, yard space, height of structures or distance between structures prescribed in the regulations for the district in which the structure is located. While permitting the use and maintenance of nonconforming structures, this section is intended to limit the number and extent of nonconforming structures by prohibiting their being moved, altered or enlarged so as to increase the discrepancy between existing conditions and the standards prescribed in this title and by prohibiting their restoration after destruction, within a reasonable period of time.

3. Priorities for enforcement under this section shall be as follows, in descending order of importance:
a. Useslisted undersubsection G below.
b. Nonconforming uses.

B. Continuation and Maintenance.

2. A structure lawfully occupying a site on the effective date hereof or of amendments thereto, which does not conform with the standards of coverage, front yard, side yards, rear yard or distances between structures prescribed in the regulations for the district in which the structure is located, shall be deemed to be a nonconforming structure and may be used and maintained except as otherwise provided in this section.

3. A sign or outdoor advertising display of any character lawfully occupying a site on the effective date hereof or amendments thereto, which does not conform with the standards for subject matter, location, size, lighting or movement prescribed for the district in which it is located, shall be deemed to be a nonconforming sign or outdoor advertising structure, and may be displayed and maintained except as otherwise provided in this section.

4. Routine maintenance and repairs may be performed on a structure or site, the use of which is nonconforming, on a nonconforming structure and on a nonconforming sign or outdoor advertising structure.

C. Alterations and Additions to Nonconforming Uses and Signs. Except as provided in subsections D through I of this section, no structure, the use of which is nonconforming, and no nonconforming sign shall be moved, altered or enlarged unless required by law or unless the moving, alteration or enlargement will result in the elimination of the nonconforming use. No structure partially occupied by a nonconforming use shall be moved, altered or enlarged in such a way as to permit the enlargement of the space occupied by the nonconforming use.

D. Alterations and Additions to Nonconforming Structures. No nonconforming structure shall be altered or reconstructed so as to increase the amount of floor space or the discrepancy between existing conditions and the standard of coverage, front yards, side yards, rear yard, height of structure or distances between structures prescribed in the regulations prescribed for the district in which the structure islocated, except as may be permitted through the granting of a conditional use permit under the provisions of Chapter

18.17. The modest expansion of a nonconforming use which may be allowed within any zoning district under conditional use permit procedures shall not exceed twenty-five percent of the existing floor area of the structure.

E. Abandonment of a Nonconforming Use.

Whenever a nonconforming use, or a nonconforming structure shall be destroyed by fire or other calamity, or by an act of God or by the public enemy to the extent of less than sixty percent, the structure may be restored and the nonconforming use may be resumed; provided, that restoration is started within six months and diligently pursued to completion. The extent of damage to any structure shall be determined by the building official, and shall be based upon the ratio of the estimated cost ofrestoring the use orstructure to its condition prior to such damage to the estimated cost of duplicating the entire structure as it existed prior thereto.

2. Whenever a nonconforming use or a nonconforming structure shall be destroyed by fire or other calamity, or by an act of God or by the public enemy to the extent of sixty percent or more, or shall be voluntarily razed orshall be required by law to be razed, the structure shall not be restored except in full conformity with the regulations for the district in which it is located and the nonconforming use shall not be resumed.

The consequences of failing to effectively and aggressively confront this crisis are hurting millions of Californians, robbing future generations of the chance to call California home, stifling economic opportunities for workers and businesses, worsening poverty and homelessness, and undermining the state’s environmental and climate objectives” (Government Code Section 65589.5.); and
WHEREAS, the Legislature has further found that “Among the consequences of those actions are discrimination against low-income and minority households, lack of housing to support employment growth, imbalance in jobs and housing, reduced mobility, urban sprawl, excessive commuting, and air quality deterioration” (Government Code Section 65589.5.); and WHEREAS, the Legislature recently adopted the Housing Crisis Act of 2019 (SB 330) which states that “In 2018, California ranked 49th out of the 50 states in housing units per capita… California needs an estimated 180,000 additional homes annually to keep up with population growth, and the Governor has called for 3.5 million new homes to be built over 7 years;” and WHEREAS, State Housing Element Law (Government Code Sections 65580 et seq.) requires that the City Council adopt a Housing Element for the eight-year period 2023-2031 to accommodate the City of Lindsay, (County of Tulare) regional housing need allocation (RHNA) of 789 housing units, comprised of 93 very-low income units, 58 low-income units, 178 moderate-income units, and 460 above moderateincome units; and WHEREAS, to comply with State Housing Element Law, City has prepared the Housing Element 2023-2031 (the Housing Element) in compliance with State Housing Element Law and has identified sites that can accommodate housing units meeting the City’s RHNA; and WHEREAS, as provided in Government Code Section 65350 et. seq., adoption of the Housing Element constitutes a General Plan Amendment; and

WHEREAS, on May 8, 2025, the City received a letter from HCD providing its findings regarding the draft Housing Element; and
WHEREAS, on August 12, 2025, the City published a revised draft Housing Element responding to HCD’s findings and requested public comment on the draft; and on August 20, 2025, after responding to public comments, the City submitted the revised draft Housing Element to the State Department of Housing and Community Development (HCD) for its review; and WHEREAS, on October 16, 2025, the City received a letter from HCD stating that the draft Housing Element meets the statutory requirements described in HCD’s May 8, 2025, review; however, the Housing Element cannot be found in substantial compliance until the City has completed and submitted necessary rezones;
WHEREAS, on January 13, 2026, the City is adopting the necessary rezoning through Zoning Ordinance Amendment No. 703 for submittal with resolution 26-02 to HCD for review; and WHEREAS, HCD will issue correspondence regarding the status of the City’s Housing Element compliance, expected to be in substantial compliance with State Housing Element Law, and will comply with State Housing Element Law as adopted; and
WHEREAS, on, December 1, 2025, the City published the final draft Housing Element (determined to be in substantial compliance by HCD) on the City website and requested public comment on the final draft; and
WHEREAS, on January 13, 2026, the City Council conducted a duly and properly noticed public hearing to take public testimony and consider this Resolution regarding the proposed Housing Element, reviewed the Housing Element and all pertinent maps, documents and exhibits, including HCD’s findings, the City’s response to HCD’s findings, the staff report, and all attachments, and oral and written public comments.

NOW, THEREFORE, BE IT RESOLVED, that the City Council hereby finds that, based on substantial evidence in the record:

1. The foregoing recitals are true and correct and are incorporated by reference into this action.

2. The City concurrently adopted Zoning Ordinance No. 703 amending chapters 18.14.060 and

18.15 of Title 18 (Zoning) of the Lindsay Municipal Code, to implement state law requirements and ensure consistency with the General Plan and 2025 Housing Element.

3. The Housing Element substantially complies with Housing Element Law, as provided in Government Code 65580 et seq., and contains all provisions required by State Housing Element Law, as shown in Exhibit C to this resolution, incorporated herein.

4. Based on substantial evidence in the record including location, existing use, market demand, and development trends, the existing uses on the non-vacant sites identified in the site inventory to accommodate the RHNA are likely to be discontinued during the planning period and therefore do not constitute an impediment to planned residential development on the site during the planning period.

5. As required by Government Code Section 65585(e), the City Council has considered the findings made by the Department of Housing and Community Development included in the Department’s letter to the City dated October 16, 2025, consistent with Government Code Section 65585(f), and as described in Attachment B to this resolution, incorporated herein, the City Council has changed the Housing Element in response to the findings of the Department to substantially comply with the requirements of State Housing Element Law as interpreted by HCD.

6. The 2015-2023 City of Lindsay Housing Element is hereby repealed in its entirety, and the 2023- 2031 City of Lindsay Housing Element, as shown in Exhibit A to this Resolution, incorporated herein, is adopted.

7. This Resolution shall become effective upon adoption by the City Council.

8. The Community Services Director or designee is hereby directed to file all necessary material with the Department of Housing and Community Development for the Department to find that the Housing Element is in conformance with State Housing Element Law and is further directed and authorized to make all non-substantive changes to the Housing Element to make it internally consistent or to address any non-substantive changes or amendments requested by the Department to achieve certification.

9. The Community Services Director or designee is hereby directed to distribute copies of the Housing Element in the manner provided in Government Code Sections 65357 and 65589.7.

BE IT FURTHER RESOLVED, that the City Council hereby approves the 2023-2031 Housing Element and the addendum to the General Plan EIR and in its current form, which has been found by HCD to be in substantial compliance.

PASSED, APPROVED AND ADOPTED by the City Council of the City of Lindsay this 13th day of January 2026.

AGENDA TITLE: Community Development Block Grant (CDBG) 2025 Application

ACTION & RECOMMENDATION
Adopt Resolution No. 26-01 authorizing the City of Lindsay to submit Community Development Block Grant (CDBG) applications to the California Department of Housing and Community Development (HCD) for a total funding request not to exceed $3.6 million under the 2025 CDBG Notice of Funding Availability (NOFA). The resolution also authorizes the City Manager or designer to execute all required applications, certifications, agreements, and reports.

BACKGROUND | ANALYSIS
The California Department of Housing and Community Development (HCD) administers the federal Small Cities Community Development Block Grant (CDBG) Program, which provides funding to eligible jurisdictions for activities that benefit low- and moderate-income (LMI) persons, eliminate slums and blight, or address urgent community development needs.

For the 2025 funding cycle, HCD has announced the availability of approximately $27 million statewide through a competitive application process.

Eligible activities under the 2025 NOFA include infrastructure improvements, community facilities, housing rehabilitation, planning studies, public services, and economic development activities. All proposed activities must meet at least one of the three federal National Objectives, most commonly benefit to LMI persons.

Under the 2025 NOFA, jurisdictions may request up to $3.6 million for a combination of up to three eligible activities. No local match is required, and administrative costs are eligible up to seven percent (7%) of the total award.

An amended NOFA released on December 15, 2025, revised the application schedule. The CDBG application portal will open on February 2, 2026, and close on April 3, 2026. Funding awards are anticipated in September 2026, with Standard Agreements issued on a rolling basis beginning in October 2026, allowing an expenditure period of two years and nine months.

PROPOSED CDBG ACTIVITY APPLICATIONS
The City proposes submitting three CDBG funding requests totaling $3.6 million, consisting of three eligible activities designed to address documented infrastructure and accessibility needs within low- and moderateincome areas.

Planning Activities – $300,000 (LMI Area Benefit)

1. ADA Self-Evaluation and Transition Plan – $132,000
This study will evaluate City facilities, programs, and rights-of-way to identify barriers to accessibility and establish a prioritized implementation plan.

Item #: 16.4
Action Items

2. Water Master Plan Update – $168,000
The update will assess the condition, capacity, and long-term performance of the City’s water system, to ensure continued service reliability and regulatory compliance.

Infrastructure Improvements – $3,300,000 (LMI Area Benefit) Fire Flow and Water Line Replacement Project
The proposed infrastructure project addresses documented deficiencies in the City’s water distribution system that affect fire protection and service reliability within low- and moderate-income neighborhoods.

The project includes replacement, installation, and relocation of approximately 8,065 linear feet of existing water distribution pipelines within previously disturbed existing public rights-of-way and utility easements.

Specific improvements include:
• Replacement of undersized 4-inch and 6-inch mains with 6-inch and 8-inch mains • Installation of new 8-inch mains to improve system looping and redundancy • Relocation of approximately 1,625 linear feet of rear-yard main into public rights-of-way • No expansion of service areas and no increase in system capacity beyond existing demand • Improvements necessary to meet current fire flow standards of 2,000 gallons per minute at 20 psi.

The project does not induce growth, expand the population served by more than 20 percent, or result in a change in land use. Improvements are limited to system rehabilitation and safety upgrades that benefit existing residents.

Of the total infrastructure request:
• $3,084,112.15 is allocated to construction-related costs, including materials, labor, and permits. • $215,887.85 is allocated to general administration, supporting project management, financial oversight, reporting, compliance, and procurement.

ENVIRONMENTAL REVIEW
California Environmental Quality Act (CEQA)
Pursuant to Section 21065 of the CEQA Guidelines, the proposed action—authorization to submit grant applications—does not constitute a “project” with the potential to result in a physical change to the environment.

Any funded projects will undergo separate CEQA review prior to implementation.

National Environmental Policy Act (NEPA)
All activities funded under the CDBG program are subject to NEPA review. NEPA compliance has been completed for all proposed activities at the application level, and documentation is included in the CDBG applications.

Administrative and planning activities are exempt from NEPA under 24 CFR 58.34(a), including environmental studies, planning, information gathering, and administrative actions that do not result in physical impacts.

The Water Line Replacement Project was evaluated using a Statutory Checklist and determined to be Categorically Excluded under 24 CFR 58.35(a), subject to compliance with applicable laws and authorities at 24 CFR 58.5. The project qualifies as rehabilitation and replacement of existing public facilities retained in the same use without expansion of capacity beyond 20 percent.

Consultation was completed with the Native American Heritage Commission, local tribes, the California Historic Resources Information System, the State Historic Preservation Office, and the San Joaquin Valley Air Pollution Control District. Required mitigation measures include adherence to inadvertent discovery procedures, implementation of construction best management practices for noise, dust, traffic, and stormwater, and compliance with applicable air quality regulations. All work will occur within previously disturbed rights-of-way.

CONDITIONS OF APPROVAL
There are no conditions of approval associated with this action. Adoption of Resolution No. 26-01 authorizes the City Manager or designee, to sign and submit the CDBG applications and execute all required documents if funding is awarded.

PUBLIC OUTREACH
A public hearing notice was published at least 10 days prior to the hearing in the Exeter Sun-Gazette and posted at four distinct and separate locations around town, in accordance with State CDBG requirements.

FISCAL IMPACT
There is no fiscal impact from this item, aside from publication costs for the public hearing notice. Grant writing expenses are covered under our existing contract with QK for planning services.

Agenda Title: Fiscal Year 2024 Successor Agency Audit

ACTION & RECOMMENDATION
Accept the Fiscal Year 2023-2024 Successor Agency Audit report prepared by Price Paige and Company.

BACKGROUND | ANALYSIS
The City of Lindsay Successor Agency to the Lindsay Redevelopment Agency issued refunding bonds in 2015 for $13,000,000. The 2015 Bonds paid off bonds which were issued in 2005, 2007, and 2008.

The covenant for the 2015 Successor Agency Refunding Bonds agreement requires that the Audited Financial Statements be submitted by December 27 of each year for the previous Fiscal Year. The City failed to submit the Audited Financials for Fiscal Year 23-24 by December of 2024 to US Bank therefore the City was in default of the covenant with the Trustee US Bank.

On December 8, 2025 US Bank issued a Notice of Default letter and requested for the 2024 Audited Financial Statements to be submitted by 12/27/25. The auditors from Price Paige and Company were able to do an independent audit of just the Successor Agency accounts in order to comply with the Notice of Default letter and US Bank was emailed the 2024 Audited Financial Statements for the Successor Agency on December 24, 2025.

FISCAL IMPACT
The added cost for the Successor Agency audit was not included in the Fiscal 2025-2026 Budget, and a Budget Amendment will likely come to Council at a later date.

Honorable Members of the Oversight Board of the
Redevelopment Successor Agency of the City of Lindsay
Lindsay, California
Report on the Audit of the Financial Statements
Opinions
We have audited the accompanying financial statements of the Redevelopment Successor Agency (the Agency), a privatepurpose trust fund of the City of Lindsay, California (the City), as of and for the year ended June 30, 2024, and the related notes to the financial statements, which collectively comprise the Agency’s basic financial statements, as listed in the table of contents.

In our opinion, the financial statements referred to above present fairly, in all material respects, the respective fiduciary net position of the Agency, as of June 30, 2024, and the respective changes in fiduciary net position for the year then ended in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America.

Basis for Opinions
We conducted our audit in accordance with auditing standards generally accepted in the United States of America and the standards applicable to financial audits contained in Government Auditing Standards, issued by the Comptroller General of the United States. Our responsibilities under those standards are further described in the Auditor’s Responsibilities for the Audit of the Financial Statements section of our report. We are required to be independent of the City and to meet our other ethical responsibilities, in accordance with the relevant ethical requirements relating to our audit. We believe that the audit evidence we have obtained is sufficient and appropriate to provide a basis for our audit opinions.

Emphasis of Matter
As discussed in Note 1, the financial statements present only the Agency and do not purport to, and do not, present fairly the financial position of the City of Lindsay, California, as of June 30, 2024, the changes in its financial position for the year then ended in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America. Our opinion is not modified with respect to this matter.

Responsibilities of Management for the Financial Statements Management is responsible for the preparation and fair presentation of the financial statements in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America, and for the design, implementation, and maintenance of internal control relevant to the preparation and fair presentation of financial statements that are free from material misstatement, whether due to fraud or error.

In preparing the financial statements, management is required to evaluate whether there are conditions or events, considered in the aggregate, that raise substantial doubt about the Agency’s ability to continue as a going concern for twelve months beyond the financial statement date, including any currently known information that may raise substantial doubt shortly thereafter.
2 Auditor’s Responsibilities for the Audit of the Financial Statements Our objectives are to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the financial statements as a whole are free from material misstatement, whether due to fraud or error, and to issue an auditor’s report that includes our opinions.

Reasonable assurance is a high level of assurance but is not absolute assurance and therefore is not a guarantee that an audit conducted in accordance with generally accepted auditing standards and Government Auditing Standards will always detect a material misstatement when it exists. The risk of not detecting a material misstatement resulting from fraud is higher than for one resulting from error, as fraud may involve collusion, forgery, intentional omissions, misrepresentations, or the override of internal control. Misstatements are considered material if there is a substantial likelihood that, individually or in the aggregate, they would influence the judgment made by a reasonable user based on the financial statements.

In performing an audit in accordance with generally accepted auditing standards and Government Auditing Standards, we:
• Exercise professional judgment and maintain professionalskepticism throughout the audit. • Identify and assess the risks of material misstatement of the financial statements, whether due to fraud or error, and design and perform audit procedures responsive to those risks. Such procedures include examining, on a test basis, evidence regarding the amounts and disclosures in the financial statements. • Obtain an understanding of internal control relevant to the audit in order to design audit procedures that are appropriate in the circumstances, but not for the purpose of expressing an opinion on the effectiveness of the Agency’s internal control. Accordingly, no such opinion is expressed. • Evaluate the appropriateness of accounting policies used and the reasonableness of significant accounting estimates made by management, as well as evaluate the overall presentation of the financial statements. • Conclude whether, in our judgment, there are conditions or events, considered in the aggregate, that raise substantial doubt about the Agency’s ability to continue as a going concern for a reasonable period of time.

We are required to communicate with those charged with governance regarding, among other matters, the planned scope and timing of the audit, significant audit findings, and certain internal control-related matters that we identified during the audit.

Required Supplementary Information
Management has omitted the management’s discussion and analysis that accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America require to be presented to supplement the basic financial statements. Such missing information, although not a part of the basic financial statements, is required by the Governmental Accounting Standards Board who considers it to be an essential part of financial reporting for placing the basic financial statements in an appropriate operational, economic, or historical context. Our opinion on the basic financial statements is not affected by this missing information.

Other Reporting Required by Government Auditing Standards In accordance with Government Auditing Standards, we have also issued our report dated December 24, 2025, on our consideration of the Agency’s internal control over financial reporting and on our tests of its compliance with certain provisions of laws, regulations, contracts, and grant agreements and other matters. The purpose of that report is solely to describe the scope of our testing of internal control over financial reporting and compliance and the results of that testing, and not to provide an opinion on the effectiveness of the Agency’s internal control over financial reporting or on compliance. That report is an integral part of an audit performed in accordance with Government Auditing Standards in considering Agency’s internal control over financial reporting and compliance.

NOTE 1 – REPORTING ENTITY
On December 29, 2011, the California Supreme Court upheld Assembly Bill X1 26 (the Bill) that provides for the dissolution of all redevelopment agencies in the State of California. This action impacted the City that previously had reported a redevelopment agency blended component unit.

The Bill provides that upon dissolution of a redevelopment agency, either the county or another unit of local government will agree to serve as the “successor agency” to hold the assets until they are distributed to other units of state and local government. On January 10, 2012, the Lindsay City Council adopted a resolution affirming that the City would serve as the successor agency to the former Lindsay Redevelopment Agency (the Agency).

After enactment of the law, which occurred on June 28, 2011, redevelopment agencies in the State of California cannot enter into new projects, obligations, or commitments. Subject to the control of a newly established oversight board, remaining assets can only be used to pay for enforceable obligations in existence at the date of dissolution (including the completion of any unfinished projects that were subject to legally enforceable contractual commitments).

In future fiscal years, successor agencies are only to be allocated tax increment revenue in the amount that is necessary to pay the estimated annual installment payments on enforceable obligations of the former redevelopment agency until all enforceable obligations of the prior redevelopment agency have been paid in full.

The Bill directs the State Controller of the State of California to review the propriety of any transfers of assets between redevelopment agencies and other public bodies that occurred after January 1, 2011. If the public body that received such transfers is not contractually committed to a third party for the expenditure or encumbrance of those assets, the State Controller is required to order the available assets to be transferred to the public body designated as the successor agency by the Bill.

After the date of dissolution, as allowed under Section 341716(a) of the Bill, the City elected to transfer the housing assets and functions previously performed by the Agency. The remaining assets, liabilities, and activities of the dissolved Agency are reported in the Successor Agency fiduciary fund (private- purpose trust fund) of the City.

The accompanying financial statements are not intended to fairly present other financial position or changes in financial position of the city of the County in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America.

NOTE 2 – SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT POLICIES
A. Basis of Presentation
The Redevelopment Successor Agency accounts are organized in a private-purpose trust fund, which is used to account for the assets, liabilities, additions and deductions made by the Redevelopment Successor Agency.

B. Measurement Focus
Measurement focus is a term used to describe which transactions are recorded within the financial statements. The Agency’s basic financial statements include the Statement of Fiduciary Net Position and the Statement of Changes in Fiduciary Net Position. The fiduciary financial statements are presented using the economic resources measurement focus. The economic resources measurement focus requires both current and long-term economic resources to be reported in the financial statements.

NOTE 2 – SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT POLICIES (Continued)
C. Basis of Accounting
Basis of accounting refers to when revenues and expenses are recognized in the accounts and reported in the basic financial statements.

The basic financial statements are presented using the accrual basis of accounting. Under the accrual basis of accounting revenues (additions) are recorded when earned and expenses (deductions) are recorded when a liability is incurred, regardless of the timing of related cash flows. Non-exchange transactions in which the Agency receives value without directly giving equal value in exchange include property taxes. On an accrual basis, revenue from property taxes is recognized in the fiscal year for which the taxes are levied.

D. Cash and Investments
Cash held by the Agency is dedicated to winding up the affairs of the former Agency. Cash and investments are held in a checking account and Investment account held by the Agency.

The Agency’s investments are stated at fair value. Fair value is based on quoted market prices as of the valuation date.

E. Redevelopment Property Tax Trust Fund
The Agency’s primary source of revenue comes from the Redevelopment Property Tax Trust Fund (RPTTF) allocation distributed by the County. Property tax revenues for each Project Area are deposited into the RPTTF, which redistributes each Project Area’s tax increment under specified formulas. The County Auditor administers the RPTTF and disburses twice annually from this fund pass-through payments to affected taxing entities, an amount equal to the total of obligation payments that are required to be paid from tax increment as denoted on the Recognized Obligation Payment Schedule (ROPS). The available disbursements are established in the treasury of the Successor Agencies, less various administrative fees, and other miscellaneous allowances. Any remaining balance is then distributed by the County Auditor back to affected taxing entities under a prescribed method that accounts for pass-through payments. The County Auditor is also responsible for distributing other monies received from the Successor Agency (from sale of assets, etc.) to the affected taxing entities. Successor agencies in turn will use the amounts deposited into their respective funds for making payments on the principal and interest on loans, and monies advanced to, or indebtedness incurred by the dissolved redevelopment agencies.

F. Use of Estimates
The preparation of financial statements in conformity with generally accepted accounting principles requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect certain reported amounts and disclosures. Accordingly, actual results could differ from those estimates.

NOTE 3 – CASH AND INVESTMENTS
Cash and investments at June 30, 2024 are classified in the accompanying basic financialstatements as follows:

Statement of fiduciary net position:

Cash and investments: $ 844,917
Total cash and investments $ 844,917
Cash and investments at June 30, 2024 consisted of the following:

Deposits with financial institutions $ 837,323
Investments 7,594
Total cash and investments $ 844,917
A. Custodial Credit Risk
Custodial credit risk for deposits is the risk that, in the event of the failure of a depository financial institution, a government will not be able to recover its deposits or will not be able to recover collateral securities that are in the possession of an outside party. The custodial credit risk for investments is the risk that, in the event of the failure of the counterparty (e.g. broker-dealer) to a transaction, a government will not be able to recover the value of its investment or collateral securities that are in the possession of another party. The California Government Code and the City’s investment policy do not contain legal or policy requirements that would limit the exposure to custodial credit risk for deposits or investments, other than the following provision for deposits; the California Government Code requires that a financial institution secure deposits made by state or local governmental units by pledging securities in an undivided collateral pool held by a depository regulated under state law (unless so waived by the government unit). The fair value of the pledged securities in the collateral pool must equal at least 110% of the total amount deposited by the public agencies. California law also allows financial institutions to secure the City’s deposits by pledging first trust deed mortgage notes having a value of 150% of the secured public deposits.

As of June 30, 2024, all of the Agency’s deposits with financial institutions were covered by federal depository insurance limits or were held in collateralized accounts.

B. Local Area Investment Fund (LAIF)
The Successor Agency maintains an investment of $7,594 in the California Local Agency Investment Fund (LAIF), an external investment pool administered by the California State Treasurer under Government Code Section 16429.1 et seq.

LAIF offers same-day liquidity, and participating agencies may withdraw funds on demand; state law provides additional protections related to withdrawal rights and restricts transfers/loans or seizure of LAIF deposits.

Accordingly, for purposes of interest rate risk disclosure, the Successor Agency considers its LAIF balance to be effectively short-term (i.e., available on demand / within 12 months). LAIF is not rated and is not insured; however, the State Treasurer’s Pooled Money Investment Account (PMIA) Investment Policy limits the pool to authorized investments and establishes minimum credit quality standards (for example, agencies generally must be rated at least AA by two Nationally recognized Statistical Rating Organizations (NRSROs), corporate notes at least A by two NRSROs, and certain short-term instruments such as CDs/commercial paper rated A-1/P-1/F1, in addition to internal credit evaluation). The State Treasurer publishes regular reporting (including maturity schedules and market valuations), and the pool is monitored by oversight bodies and audited by the Bureau of State Audits. 10 REDEVELOPMENT SUCCESSOR AGENCY OF THE CITY OF LINDSAY | JUNE 30, 2024 Notes to the Basic Financial Statements
NOTE 4 – LONG-TERM DEBT
In accordance with the provisions of the Bill and the court case, the obligations of the former redevelopment agency became vested with the funds established for the successor agency upon the date of dissolution, February 1, 2012. Tax increment revenue is pledged to fund the debts of the Successor Agency Trust subject to the reapportionment of such revenues as provided by the Bill.

Successor Agency long-term debt activity for the fiscal year ended June 30, 2024, was as follows:

Balance at Balance at Due in
July 1, 2023 Additions Reduction June 30, 2024 One Year 2015 Taxable Lease Revenue
Refunding Bonds $ 10,060,000 $ - $ (510,000) $ 9,550,000 $ 535,000 A. Tax Allocation Bonds Payable
On June 1, 2015, the Successor Agency refunded the 2005, 2007, and 2008 tax allocation bonds in the amounts of $3,925,000, $6,895,000, and $3,270,000, respectively, with the refunding issue of 2015 in the amount of $13,000,000. The bonds have principal payments each August 1 through 2037 and accrue interest at 3.0% – 5.0%, which is payable semiannually. The bonds are payable solely from pledged tax revenues allocated and paid to the Successor Agency from properties in the project area. Upon and during the continuance of an event of default, the principal of and interest accrued on all loans may be declared to be due and payable immediately. As of June 30,2024, the balance on the bonds was $9,550,000.

The annual debt service requirements for 2015 Tax Allocation Refunding Bond are as follows:

Fiscal Year
July 30, Principal Interest Total
2025 $ 535,000 $ 341,481 $ 876,481

Total $ 9,550,000 $ 1,972,203 $ 11,522,203
NOTE 5 – DEFICIT NET POSITION
The deficit in the Successor Agency Trust Fund will be reduced over the years as the related debt is paid off with funds received from the Redevelopment Property Tax Trust Fund (RPTTF), which is administered by the County Auditor-Controller.

INDEPENDENT AUDITOR’S REPORT ON INTERNAL CONTROL OVER

FINANCIAL REPORTING AND ON COMPLIANCE AND OTHER MATTERS

BASED ON AN AUDIT OF FINANCIAL STATEMENTS PERFORMED IN

ACCORDANCE WITH GOVERNMENT AUDITING STANDARDS
Honorable Members of the Oversight Board of the
Redevelopment Successor Agency of the City of Lindsay
Lindsay, California
We have audited, in accordance with the auditing standards generally accepted in the United States of America and the standards applicable to financial audits contained in Government Auditing Standards issued by the Comptroller General of the United States, the financial statements of the Redevelopment Successor Agency (the Agency), a private-purpose trust fund of the City of Lindsay, California (the City), as of and for the year ended June 30, 2024, and the related notes to the financial statements, which collectively comprise the Agency’s basic financial statements, and have issued our report thereon dated December 24, 2025.

Report on Internal Control over Financial Reporting
In planning and performing our audit of the financial statements, we considered the City’s internal control over financial reporting (internal control) related to the Agency as a basis for designing audit procedures that are appropriate in the circumstances for the purpose of expressing our opinions on the financial statements, but not for the purpose of expressing an opinion on the effectiveness of the City’s internal control. Accordingly, we do not express an opinion on the effectiveness of the City’s internal control.

A deficiency in internal control exists when the design or operation of a control does not allow management or employees, in the normal course of performing their assigned functions, to prevent, or detect and correct, misstatements on a timely basis. A material weakness is a deficiency, or a combination of deficiencies, in internal control, such that there is a reasonable possibility that a material misstatement of the entity’s financial statements will not be prevented, or detected and corrected, on a timely basis. A significant deficiency is a deficiency, or a combination of deficiencies, in internal control that is less severe than a material weakness, yet important enough to merit attention by those charged with governance.

Our consideration of internal control was for the limited purpose described in the first paragraph of this section and was not designed to identify all deficiencies in internal control that might be material weaknesses or significant deficiencies and therefore, material weaknesses or significant deficiencies may exist that were not identified. We identified a certain deficiency in internal control, described in the accompanying schedule of findings as item 2024-001 that we consider to be a material weakness.

Report on Compliance and Other Matters
As part of obtaining reasonable assurance about whether the Agency’s financial statements are free from material misstatement, we performed tests of its compliance with certain provisions of laws, regulations, contracts, and grant agreements, noncompliance with which could have a direct and material effect on the financial statements. However, providing an opinion on compliance with those provisions was not an objective of our audit, and accordingly, we do not express such an opinion. The results of our tests disclosed no instances of noncompliance or other matters that are required to be reported under Government Auditing Standards.

City’s Response to Findings
Government Auditing Standards requires the auditor to perform limited procedures on the City’s response to the findings identified in our audit and described in the accompanying schedule of findings. The City’s response was not subjected to the other auditing procedures applied in the audit of the financial statements and, accordingly, we express no opinion on the response.

Purpose of This Report
The purpose of this report is solely to describe the scope of our testing of internal control and compliance and the results of that testing, and not to provide an opinion on the effectiveness of the entity’s internal control or on compliance. This report is an integral part of an audit performed in accordance with Government Auditing Standards in considering the entity’s internal control and compliance. Accordingly, this communication is not suitable for any other purpose.

REDEVELOPMENT SUCCESSOR AGENCY OF THE CITY OF LINDSAY | FOR THE YEAR ENDED JUNE 30, 2024 Schedule of Findings
SECTION I – SUMMARY OF AUDITOR’S RESULTS
Financial Statements
Type of auditor’s report issued: Unmodified
Internal control over financial reporting:

Material weakness(es) identified: X Yes No
Significant deficiency(ies) identifiedNot considered to be material weakness? Yes X None reported Noncompliance material to financial statements noted? Yes X No SECTION II – FINANCIAL STATEMENT FINDINGS
Finding 2024-001 – INTEREST PAYABLE ACCRUAL OMISSION (MATERIAL WEAKNESS) Condition:

During the audit, we noted the Redevelopment Successor Agency did not record the year-end accrual for interest payable related to its long-term debt obligations. As a result, liabilities and related interest expense were understated by $147,856 at June 30, 2024. An audit adjustment was proposed to properly recognize the year-end accrual.

Criteria:

Under U.S. GAAP (GASB) for fiduciary funds, the Private Purpose Trust Fund is reported using the economic resources measurement focus and accrual basis. Accordingly, interest expense must be recognized as incurred and interest payable accrued at year-end for amounts incurred but unpaid as of year-end.

Cause:

The year-end financial close process did not include a control to identify and record accrued interest payable (e.g., a required reconciliation/roll forward using debt amortization schedules, trustee statements, or agent calculations). In addition, the review procedures performed over year-end accruals were not sufficiently precise to detect this omission.

Effect:

As a result of the Private Purpose Trust Fund not recording the year-end accrual for interest payable, the Fund’s liabilities and related interest expense were understated by $147,856 at June 30, 2024, which resulted in a misstatement of the Statement of Fiduciary Net Position and the Statement of Changes in Fiduciary Net Position.

The amounts have since been corrected and are now properly reported in the financial statements.

REDEVELOPMENT SUCCESSOR AGENCY OF THE CITY OF LINDSAY | FOR THE YEAR ENDED JUNE 30, 2024 Schedule of Findings
SECTION II – FINANCIAL STATEMENT FINDINGS (Continued)
Finding 2024-001 – INTEREST PAYABLE ACCRUAL OMISSION (MATERIAL WEAKNESS) (Continued) Recommendation:

We recommend the Redevelopment Successor Agency strengthen its closing procedures by implementing controls to ensure all interest-related accruals are recorded at year-end. At a minimum, management should:

1. Prepare a documented interest payable calculation at year-end for each outstanding obligation (using trustee statements, debt schedules, or third-party calculations).

2. Reconcile the calculated accrued interest to supporting documentation and prior-period methodology.

3. Require a supervisory review and sign-off evidencing the completeness and accuracy of the accrual prior to finalizing the trial balance and financial statements.

Management’s Response:

Management agrees with the finding and acknowledges the importance of recording year-end accruals, including interest payable, in accordance with U.S. GAAP (GASB). Management has corrected the amounts noted and is in the process of developing and implementing additional year-end closing procedures and related policies to ensure interest payable and other material accruals are identified, calculated, reviewed and recorded timely in future periods.
