PROJECT UNDERSTANDING & APPROACH TO DELIVERING SCOPE OF SERVICES Our team understands the opportunity that the Rec Plex project presents for the City of Livingston as a community hub and a true gamechanger for the life of your residents. The existing building presents a great opportunity for a dynamic modernization that creates a multi-function space while honoring the history of the existing building and the agricultural history of Livingston.

Our project team, led by Nathan Herrero as principal for this project, has had the opportunity to work on many conversion/modernization projects, including those featured in this RFQ/P. We appreciate the challenge that working within an existing building provides. This type of project requires a balance of respect/utilization of the existing structural frame, as well as smart updates and additions to create the desired spaces. The large volumes of the existing warehouse space are a great opportunity to create open and adaptable spaces.

We have reviewed the proposed concept plan prepared by DAHLIN and included in the RFQ/P – it’s a great start to the process that gives us the baseline for the beginning of design. Our team will build on the work that went into this plan, engaging with the City, your residents and the team at DAHLIN to expand and continue this work with our design. Our goal in the design process is to go through a collaborative feedback loop – this begins with listening. We will set up charettes and meetings designed to first gather as much input as possible from your stakeholders so that we understand your priorities and can reflect those in the design.

As we work through design, we then work to establish a continuous feedback loop where the City’s project team is an active participant – reacting and suggesting ideas as we develop the final concept design and helping us ensure that the community’s needs are reflected. It is critical that we establish a rhythm of meetings during the concept phase – this maintains momentum and allows all stakeholders to stay engaged. Our references can attest that we truly value this client/stakeholder input and that it directly leads to the final design.

Another key element of our design philosophy is ‘Think Context’. Every project should be grounded in its environment and history and should feel a part of its community – our team has implemented that approach across a wide range of projects from community centers, senior centers, libraries to schools and sports complexes. This philosophy is especially critical to this project given its community function and the history of the building. Throughout our portfolio, our team has worked in many different architectural styles as appropriate for the context of the project – fortunately, the industrial/agricultural style here is an ideal fit for the proposed recreational use, and our team will look to honor that heritage in both existing and new building components as we develop the design.

Approach
SVA is dedicated to using a comprehensive approach and methods for all of our projects. These methods include user-driven design meetings and workshops, a robust QA/QC process that produces highly accurate construction documents, and budget and schedule control that adheres to the clients’ needs.

In this way, we are able to incorporate feedback and creative design solutions from all team members— owner, architect, construction manager, engineers, and subcontractors — to form a collaborative effort, while eliminating waste and cutting costs. Our approach involves a three-pronged platform with the owner as one entity, the architect and engineers as the second, and the contractors or builders as the third; the three parties act as the core group to manage the integrated project delivery process. d. Project Understanding & Approach

Page 141 ends

SVA ARCHITECTS, INC. | City of Livingston Rec Plex – Design Services – Envelope A | 11 Organization
Organization is a key factor in any project. The City/DAHLIN will be kept informed with a progress report which gives the overall status of the project with reference to schedule and budget. The Principal-InCharge and Senior Project Manager (Nathan Herrero) will monitor work completed to date against the schedule on a regular basis. At this time, he will also utilize a budget report to check expenditures against schedule and budget. Our team will set up procedures to coordinate with each stakeholder from the outset when the contract is developed, establishing the baseline on how the coordination will occur. The senior project manager will prepare a status report to be submitted to the client with monthly milestones.

The manager will also indicate on the schedule milestone meeting with the various team members for review and approval. Each consultant is required to respond to a detailed quality review of their documents. This procedure is necessary to prevent conflicts between trades and to eliminate conflicts under construction. All stakeholders involved will be aware of their responsibilities to maximize project success. Communication protocols for coordinating with other City departments, agencies, and the community will be established during project kick-off.

Staffing
For this project for the City of Livingston, we have formed a comprehensive team that has years of experience with recreation and community facilities. For the SVA staff, Robert M. Simons, AIA, will be the Architect of Record of this project, while Nathan Herrero, AIA, LEED AP BD+C, will take on the role as the Principal-In-Charge and Senior Project Manager and will be the Primary Contact for the City/DAHLIN.

Working along side them will be Christopher Bradley as Senior Project Architect, and Robert Puleo as Director of Interiors. Together they will lead the overall team effort with a fully integrated approach and demonstrative ability to proceed in the most cost-effective manner. These key team members will be assisted by additional members of SVA who each have worked together for years and have the expertise to complete this assignment.

Our sub-consultant team, which thoroughly understands the requirements needed for this project as well, will consist of Blair, Church, Flynn for Civil, KPFF Consulting Engineers for Structural, EDesignC Inc. which will provide MEP, Fire Life/Safety, and Technology services. Along with these teams will be ANLA for Landscape Design services, Muller Design as our Kitchen Designer, California Consulting as our Grant Writer, and Sierra West Group for Cost Estimating.

These consultants have worked with SVA on many previous assignments over the years and are very familiar with how to work within the SVA approach. Our teaming history and experience will be advantageous towards this project and accelerating the process at certain milestones.

SUGGESTED REVISIONS & CHALLENGES
Our team does not see any proposed revisions or modifications to the scope, but in review of the project and the site walk, design challenges for the Rec Plex project will include:
■ The change of occupancy of the project from a warehouse and office space to an assembly (‘A’) type occupancy will require an evaluation and upgrade of the structural for the change of use. Our project team includes a structural engineer with whom we’ve worked on multiple retrofit projects and can help us efficiently upgrade while minimizing the impact.

Page 142 ends

SVA ARCHITECTS, INC. | City of Livingston Rec Plex – Design Services – Envelope A | 12 ■ The site layout, with the existing street that the City hopes to close separating the outdoor portion from the building, presents a planning challenge on creating a cohesive site and close coordination of utilities. Our combined landscape and civil teams of ANLA and BCF are ideally suited for planning for these connections and making the total site feel connected and welcoming. ■ The estimated construction budget is significantly higher (above $12M) compared to the available funds ($5.4M). Our team has included the required fees to cover the design of the complete project, but if additional funding is ultimately not available, determining a workable scope for $5.4M while including the required upgrades to the building will be challenging. Our team prides ourselves on coming up with creative solutions to design challenges such as these, and are confident that no matter what the final budget is, we will be able to come up with an impactful project that will serve the needs of the City of Livingston.

PROJECT DELIVERABLES
Below are the project deliverables for each phase (tasks/sub-tasks) of the proposed project.

TASK 1 – KICK OFF, CONCEPTUAL DESIGN, SCHEMATIC DESIGN
Task 1A – Project Orientation/Kick Off
Members of our project team will conduct an initial meeting with City staff, facilities team, and other stakeholders to review the project objectives and planning premises.

COST CONTROL
Cost control is a constant goal of management and is placed as a permanent item on the project meeting agendas. SVA keeps up-to-date records of building system costs for its past and current assignments in an effort to monitor the costs of construction. During the initial design phases, we meet extensively with the project team members, vendors and manufacturers to determine new ways of maximizing the value of our design within the budget constraints. Discussions with clients, consultants, vendors and contractors are recorded in detail and distributed to the appropriate parties. We actively participate in maintaining the project budget, with our experience proving invaluable in obtaining the maximum value and quality for every construction dollar spent.

An example of this was with the Redondo Union High School Gymnasium & Aquatics Center. SVA performed a needs assessment for the entire Redondo Union campus, working to establish campus needs, district priorities for the future, and specific project requirements. SVA then helped the construction manager to prepare budgets for each individual project. Although this project was originally programmed as two separate buildings at different locations, SVA was able to help the district build larger facilities for less money by combining the two into a single project.

As two projects, both the Gymnasium and Aquatics Center faced concerns in delivering on all the areas and features that the campus requested, as well as fitting all of the program into a challenging sloped site. SVA developed an alternate plan by which the Gymnasium and Aquatics Center were combined and built into the existing slope of the site, creating a three-story building that was never two stories above the surrounding grade. By reducing site development and structural costs, SVA was able to design a building that was larger than programmed for more than $2 million under the planned budget.

ANALYSIS OF PROPOSED PROJECT SCHEDULE
We have reviewed the proposed project schedule provided in Appendix D. Based on the RFQ/P information, the site walk, and our experience with similar projects, we think this is a viable schedule and the time allotted for each milestone is appropriate and reasonable. If selected, our team can commit to delivering the design document for plan check within the 12-month time frame. SVA will continue to support the plan review and approval process, bid phase, and construction phase to target the Summer 2027 grand opening day.

STAFF REPORT
AGENDA ITEM: Resolution Authorizing the Interim City Manager to Enter Into a 24 Month Contract with Flock Safety for Additional Automated License Plate Readers (ALPR) Not to Exceed $26,100 for the Contract, $14,100 for the First Year and $12,000 for the Second Year MEETING DATE: September 17, 2024
PREPARED BY: John Ramirez, Interim Chief of Police
APPROVED By: Christopher Lopez, Interim City Manager
RECOMMENDATION:

Council Adopt Resolution Authorizing the Interim City Manager to Enter Into a 24 Month Contract with Flock Safety for Additional Automated License Plate Readers (ALPR) Not to Exceed $26,100 for the Contract, $14,100 for the First Year and $12,000 for the Second Year.

BACKGROUND AND DISCUSSION:

The Livingston Police Department wishes to add to our current use of technology, information, and intelligence gained from the use of automated license plate readers to combat criminal activity, enhance productivity, and improve officer safety. The automated license plate readers also provide traffic mitigation measures that could potentially have a drastic impact on current traffic issues within the City of Livingston.

The ALPR cameras are installed in fixed locations throughout the city and capture license plates from passing vehicles. Once the license plate is processed by the ALPR camera and sent to the cloud, Livingston Police Officers using the Flock Safety account (or the Department’s Dispatch Center) is notified within seconds whenever a license plate is read that is associated with the following criteria: stolen vehicle, identification of vehicles connected to wanted felons, Amber Alerts, or any other search criteria determined by the Department. This allows investigators to review captured suspect vehicle information to aid in the investigation. The police department has policies and training in place to keep the system from being misused by staff.

The cloud-based database is also searchable for certain descriptors if a full license plate is not known. The searchable descriptors include but, are not limited to vehicle make and model, such as “semi-truck”, color, and certain unique characteristics a vehicle may have.

ALPR technology is nothing new to the City of Livingston and the Livingston Police Department.

Currently we have eight ALPR Flock cameras. Flock Safety is the only manufacturer that has ALPR cameras that can communicate with our current digital evidence system, Axon – Evidence.com. There is a sole source letter attached to this staff report.

Page 183 ends

FISCAL IMPACT:

Flock only leases ALPR equipment and their pricing for the first year is $14,100 ($3,000 each camera). There is a one-time professional services fee of $650.00 for three cameras and $150.00 for the fourth camera. Flock’s all-inclusive price per camera includes the hardware, software, SIM card and data plan, warranty, maintenance, monitoring, installation, and software upgrades. The total cost for the first year of service is $14,100 and $12,000 in subsequent years on a year-to-year basis for two years totaling $26,100. The first-year funds have already been approved in the 2024/2025 Police Department fiscal budget (Account 1100-102-4440). Future year allocations will be budgeted for in the respective fiscal years for council approval. If a decision was made to add more cameras in the future, the city would take on the additional subscription fee for each camera at the going rate at the time of purchase.

Because the Flock Safety ALPR system is all inclusive there is no maintenance cost. The Flock ALPR cameras are solar powered therefore there is no wiring or power issues. There would be no impact on public works or any current police department staff.

STAFF REPORT
Designation of Delegates for the Merced County Association of Governments (MCAG) 2025 One Voice Trip and Identify Potential Priorities September 17, 2024
Christopher Lopez, Interim City Manager
RECOMMENDATION:

It is recommended that the City Council designate up to two members of the City Council to the Merced County Association of Governments (MCAG) 2025 One Voice Trip and Identify Potential Priorities.

BACKGROUND:

The purpose of the Merced County Association of Governments One Voice program is to develop a shared platform of projects and issues of regional significance that serves as the foundation for a federal advocacy effort.

The goals of the program are to:
• Communicate the region's legislative priorities clearly and succinctly; • Communicate the need for additional federal funding for local projects; and • Advocate for legislation or policy changes that will benefit the region.

In order to accomplish these goals, a delegation of community leaders from throughout the region come together as a unified voice to communicate key messages to legislators, federal agencies and staff in Washington, DC. The platform and unified message are developed through a coordinated and collaborative process that involves delegates, staff from local jurisdictions, partner agencies and community organizations.

To participate in this federal advocacy effort, delegates are required to:
• Commit to the goals of the program,
• Regularly attend planning and debrief meetings,
• Participate in all scheduled appointments during the trip, including group dinner events (noshows will be invoiced for the cost of their meal), • Only communicate shared messages developed through the collaborative planning process, • Respect the roles of the designated speakers and refrain from presenting information other than the agreed upon platform, projects and messages during the trip, • Avoid using your cell phone at meetings (if you must take a call please step out), • Refrain from using the "One Voice" name to promote issues that are not part of the shared platform,
• Dress appropriately for meetings; business casual,
• Attend in-person advocacy meetings in Washington D.C.

In June, MCAG staff presented the 2024 One Voice program summary report. This included the consensus feedback of the 2024 delegates on how to improve One Voice next year which will be considered for inclusion in the 2025 program.

Past Action Taken
MonthNear Action

auidelines.

November 2022 Board authorized contract with Townsend
Public Affairs for federal lobbying services
and commensurate dues increase.

March 2024 Board adooted 2024 Policv Platform.

DISCUSSION
For the 2025 program, MCAG staff has proposed the MCAG Governing Board adopt the following program goals that have been in place since 2018, but with two new additions as recommended by the 2023 delegates:
• Limit delegation to representatives from jurisdictions (2-3 per jurisdiction}, MCAG staff, and Townsend staff
• Make clear connections between the One Voice policy platform and current legislation and regulations
• Set policy priorities based on current federal opportunities* • Focus on 2-4 policies that are regional in scope rather than small, unique requests that will only benefit one jurisdiction*
• Develop project/issue list in concert with local Congressional representative and Senators' staff
• Require a non-refundable $50 participation fee of each delegate - revenue collected will be used to pay for a specific cost associated with the trip such as a group meal • Require delegate participation in all delegation meetings and all trip activities • Hold at least one practice session for speakers prior to the trip.

Proposed MCAG One Voice Schedule
This schedule reflects the 2024 delegation's recommendation to start the program in the fall and work to identify priority policies/projects earlier.
• September 2024- Program check-in with Technical Review Board members • October 1, 2024: Deadline for submission of 2025 policy priorities. Note that MCAG will bring 2024 program priorities/projects forward unless changed by TRB members. • December 2, 2024: Deadline for submission of delegate agreements. • December 12, 2024: Orientation for new One Voice delegates (held via Zoom) • January 9, 2025: Delegation meeting - review jurisdictions' proposed regional policy/project priorities, review federal policy opportunities including community project funding process (held via Zoom)
• January 30, 2025: Delegation meeting - finalize regional policy/project priorities and

Page 2 ends

Page 195 ends

learn about jurisdictions' local community project funding request submissions (held via Zoom)
• January 31, 2025: Deadline for jurisdictions to submit all necessary data and photos for the finalization of the 2025 leave-behind document. • February 13, 2025: Delegation meeting {if needed) - finalize regional policy/project priorities (held via Zoom)
• February 28, 2025: Deadline for jurisdictions to submit delegate fee(s). • March 20, 2025: Governing Board takes action to adopt Policy Platform. • March 27, 2025: Delegation meeting - receive updates from Washington D.C. and prepare for meetings with policymakers (in-person meeting) • April 24, 2025: Strike Team meetings - Strike Teams will meet separately to prepare for meetings with policymakers (in-person meeting) • May 8, 2025: Delegation meeting - large group practice session to prepare for meetings with policymakers (in-person meeting)
• May 13-16, 2025: One Voice trip to Washington D.C.
• May 22, 2025: Delegation debrief meeting. location TBD Program Framework
Generally, delegation meetings will be held on Thursdays from 3:00-4:30pm; initial meetings will be held via Zoom only and those held after platform adoption will be held in-person only (see schedule above). Ben Goldeen from Townsend Public Affairs will be in attendance during the delegation meetings to provide information and guidance as the delegation develops its regional policy priority list and the jurisdictions develop their proposals for local community funding requests.

The format of delegation meetings held between November-February is designed such that the group will be able to collaborate and coordinate on the identification of regional policies and issues in an open forum, which is crucial to the planning of a successful One Voice program. The delegation meetings will also allow for the provision of support to the jurisdictions as they put together their individual applications for community project funding for their local projects.

It should also be noted that in order to minimize the likelihood of a potential Brown Act violation the Council appoint its Director to MCAG to the One Voice delegation and one other council member.

REQUESTED DIRECTION:

Staff is requesting that the Mayor and Council:

1. Designate two members of the City Council to the Merced County Association of Governments (MCAG) 2025 One Voice Trip; and

2. Identify Potential Priorities.

MEETING DATE:

PREPARED BY:

Selection of Committee Members for the Ad-Hoc Committee for Evaluating "Over the Counter" Building Permit Applications Subject to the City of Livingston's Current Water Supply Conditions.

September 17, 2024
Christopher Lopez, Interim City Manager
RECOMMENDATION:

At the September 3, 2024, city council meeting, the Council approved the formation of an AdHoc Committee for evaluating "Over the Counter" building permit applications subject to the City of Livingston's current water supply conditions.

Staff is requesting that the Mayor and Council select the members of the Ad-Hoc Committee for this committee.

PREVIOUS DISCUSSION:

In November 2023, City staff completed an update to the City of Livingston's Water System Capacity Assessment Study which demonstrated the City's water supply was inadequate for meeting Maximum Day Demand (MOD) and Peak Hour Demand (PHO) conditions for planning purposes in accordance with the California Water Code (CWC) standards. Following the CWC standards, the Study assumed the City's largest water well out of service for MDD and PHD conditions that resulted in the City's Firm Source Capacity (total capacity minus largest well) in a deficit compared to the City's historical MDD (greatest demand in last 1 O years). Albeit a deficit, the shortage in firm capacity was a marginal negative(-) twenty-two (22) gallons per minute (GPM). Correspondingly, the PHD which is higher than MDD also created a deficit on the City's firm capacity. It should be noted that the November 2023 Study results were based on the historical rated capacity for each active City well.

On April 30, 2024, Public Works staff provided actual capacities for some of the City wells based on current production records. This information resulted in a lower firm capacity and corresponding bigger deficit of -572 GPM when compared to the City's historical MOD. Both the data from November 2023 and April 2024 demonstrate the City's available water capacity for planning purposes is ~ at this time.

The concerns with the current water supply restrictions are corroborated by the field observations from Public Works staff. On a Water/Wastewater Equipment Assessment prepared by the Public Works Director in April 2024, numerous concerns related to the recent water supply conditions are brought up including in part:
• Equipment failures for numerous active wells
• Strain on water system due to extended periods of full-on operation • Low water pressure complaints during peak summer months • Reduce output for certain wells that break suction during summer months due to high water demands.

Page 1 of 2 ends

Page 198 ends

• Equipment in need of repairs or upgrades
• 24-hr continuous monitoring of water SCADA for system breaks The California Water Board has also published an audit report for the City of Livingston's Water System that highlights the City's shortage in firm source capacity.

To this end, City staff has had numerous discussions dating back January/February 2024, for regulating new development given the City's current water supply restrictions. Staff have also been planning and strategizing on implementing water projects that will enhance the City's water supply at the earliest date possible. These projects will take some time to complete but, in the meantime, City staff will be required to field new development applications and specifically "over the counter" building permits.

City staff is seeking Council direction on their preferences for addressing the lack of available water for the Livingston community for over-the-counter building permit applications.

Two options are provided for discussion purposes that staff may be able to research and bring back for Council consideration:

1. Development of an ad-hoc comprised of staff that would make recommendations to the Building Official based on water demands for projects on a case-by-case basis.

2. Development of a water permit allocation system that would issue permits based on water system capacity availability.

The council chose option 1, which was the development of an ad-hoc committee and directed staff to bring the agenda item back for additional discussion and direction on appointing committee members to the ad-hoc committee.

FISCAL IMPACT
There would be no fiscal impact for this item.

STAFF REPORT
AGENDA ITEM: Discussion and Direction Regarding Providing Direction to Staff on whether to Initiate an Amendment to the Sign Chapter of the City of Livingston’s Municipal Code (LMC 4-2) to allow Off-premises Advertising on Vacant Land.

MEETING DATE: September 17, 2024
PREPARED BY: Miguel Galvez, Contract City Planner
REVIEWED BY: Christopher Lopez, Interim City Manager
RECOMMENDATION:

This item was included for the City Council to have a discussion and provide direction to staff to amend the Municipal Code to allow off-premises advertising on vacant land.

BACKGROUND:

An applicant has recently come to the City (Triple AAA) to install a freeway-oriented sign on its property while allowing the City to have community events advertised to the passing public.

Currently, the municipal code does not allow such activity.

A. Permitting signage on property before the property is developed.

Accessory uses are permitted in all zoning districts. However, accessory uses are secondary to the primary land use on the site. An accessory use is normally incidental to, subordinate to, or exclusively devoted to a principal use located on the same lot. A business sign is considered an accessory to the primary land use, once the business is developed and operated onsite.

The City’s current Sign Regulations prohibit off-premises advertising, LMC 4-2-4(J). If an applicant were to propose a sign on an undeveloped property, advertising a business or businesses that are not operated on the property, it would constitute as off-premises advertising, which is prohibited under 4-2-4 (J). Should the City allow installation of permanent signage on vacant property?

B. Freeway Oriented Sign.

The question above is extended to a larger, tall, freestanding, freeway-oriented sign. If an applicant requests to develop a 60- to 80-foot-high Freeway Oriented Sign in advance of the development of the property, can the property owner be allowed to advertise other businesses not located on the project site, even advertise businesses located outside of the City Limits? C. Site Plan and Design Review (SPDR)
The Livingston Municipal Code requires all new construction to undergo Site Plan and Design

Page 200 ends

Review consideration by the Planning Commission for a recommendation to the City Council for final consideration. The Site Plan and Design Review application allows the City to evaluate the development proposal to assure compatibility, harmony in appearance with the neighborhood, reduction of any negative impacts, and orderly development of the area.

All applicants are encouraged to follow the normal SPDR application process, which includes an opportunity for submittal of a sign plan for evaluation of each development proposal. Should applicant requests for signage be deferred to the City’s SPDR review process? D. Ordinance Text Amendment
Allowing off-site or off-premises advertising is not presently allowed in the Sign Regulations. If the City Council desired to accommodate such requests, then staff would recommend an amendment to the Sign Chapter (LMC 4-3) of the City’s Municipal Code.

DISCUSSION AREAS:

Items that the Council may want to discuss include the following:

1. The economic development opportunity that may exist with this opportunity

2. The Council’s desire to amend the code to allow such changes

3. The opportunity for the City to promote City sponsored events COUNCIL DIRECTION:

Based on the language of the Sign Ordinance, Council can direct that staff develop the following:

1. Direct staff to initiate an amendment to the Sign Chapter of the City’s Municipal Code to allow permanent off-premises advertising.

2. Direct staff to Initiate an amendment to the Sign Chapter of the City’s Municipal Code to allow freeway-oriented signs to advertise off-premises businesses.

3. Take no action
Based on Council direction, staff would bring back a proposed Ordinance amendment in the future which would be reviewed by the Planning Commission and City Attorney to ensure compliance with all applicable laws.

AGENDA ITEM: Resolution Approving a Facility Fee Waiver/Reimbursement Request from Pacific Coast Kalsa Diwan Society Sikh Temple, Inc. For the Use of City Facilities Totaling $320
MEETING DATE: September 3, 2024
PREPARED BY: Happy Bains - Acting Finance Director
RECOMMENDATION:

Staff recommends the council approve a fee waiver/reimbursement for Memorial Park use for the Pacific Coast Khalsa Diwan Society Sikh Temple, Inc that was held on September 1, 2024.

BACKGROUND:

On September 4, 2023, members of the Pacific Coast Khalsa Diwan Society Sikh Temple, Inc came in reserve Memorial Park for September 1, 2025, for their annual Teeyan Da Mela which occurs the first Sunday of September. The facility use form was submitted to the Recreation staff for this event to use Memorial Park Facilities to include the kitchen and electricity on August 15, 2024.

Previously, this organization has used Memorial Park Facilities for this event with no issues or complaints. As part of the City's requirements the group has obtained and provided an insurance certificate. Additionally, alcohol will not be permitted in the park and all other rules and requirements are required for the use of the facility.

The City of Livingston has a Parks and Recreation Fee Policy in place which was adopted in 2008 and is attached for reference. The fee policy states, "Special non-profit groups/organizations, schools or organizations providing a free service to the community identified by the Recreation Department may be granted special consideration in the form of reduced rates or free services."
According to policy, "It is understood that on occasion special consideration may be needed in determining fees for groups or individual having circumstances uncommon to those in the fee structure criteria. In these cases, the City Council or City Manager will approve those requests.

Requests for a variance shall be submitted in writing to the City Manager 30 days prior to the date of promotion."
DISCUSSION:

The City Council has the discretion to approve or deny the waiving of fees for facility use. Staff has identified three (3) options for City Council consideration:

1. Allow the Pacific Coast Khalsa Diwan Society Sikh Temple, Inc to use Memorial Park and waive all fees.

2. Deny the waiving of fees.
