CAMPING AND STORAGE OF PERSONAL PROPERTY ON PUBLIC PROPERTY OR IN PUBLIC AREAS (FIRST READING & INTRODUCTION}. City Attorney Vaughn presented the staff report. Police Chief Reyna spoke in detail to the enforcement side that the Police Department deals with.
Council Member Jones spoke to how yesterday after hours at my office a homeless person was having a fight with someone that wasn't there, and there really isn't anything we can do with people like that. Police Chief Reyna stated that he always advises people to call the Police and not handle it themselves, as there is always generally something that we can do. Mr. Jones stated that people that are homeless and being caravanned over and dealing with those that are doing that, for which Mr. Reyna stated that is something we can look at and he has talked to staff and they are not seeing that, not saying that it's not happening, and a majority of homeless have ties to Los Banos. Mr.
Jones inquired as to if the city cites and tow vehicles if they are living out of them for which City Attorney Vaughn responded that we had to define camping and those in car will be cited and move them along. Mr. Jones spoke to the designated camp area and how they don't get along with each other, what about the ones outside the camp area, will this help with that for which Mr. Reyna stated yes, this will help. Council Member Lewis inquired as to why health issues were left out of the ordinance for which Mr. Vaughn stated that the whereas are just a way to set up the ordinances and the health issues are addressed in the body of the ordinance.

She then asked staff about the timeframe regarding personal property and will you have the authority to remove it for which Mr. Reyna spoke to the intent of this section. Lewis spoke to when it comes to claiming property and needing an ID, is there a different type of ID that they can use for which Mr. Reyna explained that they need to have some type of ID to prove their identity. Ms. Lewis spoke to enforcement and if there were any monetary fines or penalties for which Mr. Reyna stated that the municipal code allows for that already in. Council Member Lambert stated that each case is going to be unique and the officer will deal with them with compassion, a lot of ordinances have the City Manager in the ordinance and that is because he is the chief operator of the city and he is the delegator and just shows that Council Member Lewis has a vendetta with the City Manager, it's hard because of the situation that we have to deal with but we need it and will help staff and keep our streets clean and keep Los Banos looking the way it is right now. Mr. Llanez added that we can't compare to the City of Fresno and thanked Mr. Vaughn and Mr. Reyna for putting this together. Mr.

TYPE OF REPORT: Consent Agenda
SUBJECT: Closure of Non-Essential City Offices
Recommendation:
Approve closure of non-essential City offices on Tuesday, December 24, 2024 and Tuesday, December 31 , 2024.
Background:
City policy provides a paid holiday to City employees for Christmas Day and New Year's Day. With Christmas Day and New Years Day falling on a Wednesday, it is reasonably certain that the preceding Tuesdays will be exceptionally slow business days. Thus, it provides a great opportunity to close all non-essential functions in an effort to realize associated employee and energy cost savings.
Discussion:
Under this scenario, all offices located at 520 J Street, 411 Madison Avenue, 645 7th Street, and 1015 F Street would be closed on Tuesday, December 24, 2024 and Tuesday, December 31, 2024. All non-essential functions outside of these offices (Police and Fire) would also be closed and departments may reduce staffing in other areas that are necessary for the provision of essential services. 51 ITEM 7D
Employees affected by the closures may utilize accrued leave balances such as Vacation and Compensatory Time Off (CTO), which is accrued by overtime-eligible employees in lieu of accepting actual cash payment for overtime. As a result, the City may realize additional cost savings by reducing the long-term liability associated with these accrued leaves.
Fiscal Impact:
The City will realize cost savings through reduced energy usage on the business closure days and reduce the unfunded liability associated with the accrued leave balances.

DATE: November 20, 2024
TYPE OF REPORT: Consent Agenda
SUBJECT: City of Los Banos 2024 Congestion Mitigation Air Quality (CMAQ) Project Assurance of Timely Project Delivery
Recommendation:
That the City Council adopt a resolution committing to use all of the CMAQ funds they receive, on the project that it was allocated to, within the timeframe required by the program and authorizes the City Manager to execute any necessary agreements to secure grant funding.
Background/Discussion:
Typically, every summer the Merced County Association of Governments (MCAG) issues a call for projects for CMAQ grant funding for Merced County agencies. Eligible projects must contribute to air quality improvements. In the past, the City has obtained grant funding for the traffic signal synchronization on SR 152 and intersection improvements at SR 165 and Vineyard Drive. Public Works staff identified one project that we believe will be competitive in the 2024 grant cycle, improve air quality and enhance the quality of life for Los Banos residents and visitors. Each project must have a cost effectiveness of less that $88/pound of air quality enhancement and meeting this cost effectiveness ratio drives grant funding thresholds.
The identified project would install two Level 3 electric vehicle quick charging stations at City Hall and the Community Center. The requested grant amount is just under $400,000 with a local match of $52,219. The project would also leverage a $12,000 grant from the San Joaquin Valley Air Pollution Control District.
The grant applications will be reviewed by a scoring committee comprised of representatives from each Merced County agency and is anticipated to be conducted before the end of the calendar year.
55 ITEM 7E
Fiscal Impact:
There will be no impact to the General Fund by adopting the recommended Resolution. In the event we are successful with our application staff would return to the Council with a recommendation to appropriate any grant funding and identify the source of the local match, possibly Parks and Recreation or General Government Impact Fees.

WHEREAS, in the event the CMAQ grant application is successful staff will return to Council with a recommendation to appropriate the grant funding and required local match.
NOW, THEREFORE, BE IT RESOLVED that the City Council of the City of Los Banos does hereby:

CITY OF LOS BANOS
STATEMENT OF INVESTMENT POLICY
NOVEM-BER 2024
1 67
POLICY
It is the policy of the City to invest public funds in a manner which will safely preserve portfolio principal, provide adequate liquidity to meet the City's cash flow needs and optimize returns while conforming to all federal, state, and local statues governing the investment of public funds.
SCOPE
This investment policy applies to all cash and financial investments of the various funds of the City of Los Banos as reported in the City's Annual Comprehensive Financial Report, with the exception of those financial assets explicitly excluded from coverage for legal or operational reasons. The provisions of the related bond indentures or resolutions shall govern investments of bond proceeds. City funds to which this policy applies are as follows:
• General Fund
• Special Revenue Funds
• Capital Projects Funds
• Debt Service Funds
• Internal Service Funds
• Enterprise Funds
• Fiduciary Funds
PRUDENCE
Investments shall be made with judgment and care, under circumstances then prevailing, which persons of prudence, discretion, and intelligence exercise in management of their own affairs, not for speculation, but for investment considering the probable safety of their capital as well as the probable income to be derived. The standard of prudence to be used by investment officials shall be the "prudent person" and/or "prudent investor" standard in accordance with CA Government Code Section 53600.3, and shall be applied in the context of managing an overall portfolio. Investment officers acting in accordance with the investment policy and exercising due diligence shall be relieved of personal responsibility for an individual security's credit risk or market price changes, provided deviations from expectations are reported in a timely fashion and appropriate action is taken to control adverse developments.
INVESTMENT OBJECTIVES
The criteria for investing and managing public funds and the order of priority are as follows:
Safety of Principal: Safety of principal is the foremost objective of the investment program. Investments of the City shall be undertaken in a manner that seeks to ensure the preservation of capital in the overall portfolio. To attain this objective, the City will diversify its investments by investing funds among a number of financial institutions offering a variety of securities with independent returns. liquidity: Liquidity is the ability to change an investment into its cash equivalent on short notice at its prevailing market value. The City's investment portfolio shall remain sufficiently liquid to enable the City to meet all operating requirements which might be reasonably anticipated. This is accomplished by structuring the portfolio so that securities mature concurrently with anticipated cash needs. Since all possible cash demands cannot be anticipated, the portfolio will maintain a liquidity "buffer" equivalent to six months of expenses and invest in short-term, highly liquid vehicles such as LAIF and/or money market funds.
2 68
Rate of Return (Yield}: The portfolio shall be designed with the objective of attaining a benchmark rate of return throughout budgetary and economic cycles, considering safety and liquidity requirements. The benchmark may vary from time to time depending on the economic and budgetary conditions present.
DELEGATION OF AUTHORITY
Authority to manage the City's investment program is derived from the California Government Code Section 53607. Responsibility for the operation of the investment program is hereby delegated to the Finance Director, who shall act in accordance with established written procedures and internal controls for the operation of the investment program consistent with this investment policy. At a minimum, procedures should include references to the following: safekeeping, delivery vs. payment, investment accounting, repurchase agreements, wire transfer agreements, and collateral/depository agreements.
Any and all independent investment managers used by the City must be approved by the City Council.
No person may engage in an investment transaction except as provided under the terms of this policy and the procedures established by the investment officer. The investment officer shall be responsible for all transactions undertaken and shall establish a system of controls to regulate the activities of subordinate officials. The elected City Treasurer shall have oversite of the City's investment portfolio.
ETHICS AND CONFLICTS OF INTEREST
The Finance Director and all investment personnel shall refrain from personal business activities that could conflict with proper execution of the investment program and/or which could impair their ability to make impartial investment decisions. The Finance Director and all investment personnel shall disclose to the City Manager and the City Council any material financial interests in financial institutions that conduct business within this jurisdiction and shall disclose any material investment positions which could be related in a conflicting manner to the performance of the City's investment portfolio. The State of California Fair Political Practices Commission Statement of Economic Interests shall be completed on an annual basis by the City Treasurer.
AUTHORIZED FINANCIAL INSTITUTIONS AND DEALERS
The Finance Director will maintain a list of financial institutions, selected on the basis of credit worthiness, financial strength, experience, references and minimal capitalization that are authorized to provide investment capacity. No public deposit shall be made except in a qualified public depository as established by state laws. As part of a due diligence program, the City Treasurer should review the annual financial reports of key counter-party banks as well as summary reports retrieved from each bank's regulator. These summary reports are known as Call Reports and can be viewed on the Federal Financial Institutions Examination Council's (FFIEC) website at https://cdr.ffiec.gov/public/. Annually and before engaging in investment transactions with a broker/dealer, the firm shall sign a certification form, attesting that the individual responsible for the City's account with that firm has reviewed the investment policy and that the firm understands the policy and intends to present only those investment transactions appropriate under the policy. The City Treasurer with assistance from the Finance Director shall request for the broker/dealer to provide the latest/most available financial statement to the City.

PROHIBITED INVESTMENTS
Certain investments allowed by California Government Code will continue to be excluded from the policy. These include: repurchase agreements, reve_rse repurchase agreements, commercial paper, interest only strips, collateralized mortgage obligations, County investment pools and other investment pools.
SUSTAINABLE AND RESPONSIBLE INVESTING
City funds should be guided by the following provisions when investing in securities of nongovernmental entities:
• Priority shall be given to investments in entities that support community well-being through safe and environmentally sound practices and fair labor practices. • Priority shall be given to investments in entities that promote equality of rights regardless of race, religion, color, ancestry, age, national origin, gender, marital status, sexual orientation, disability or place of birth. Priority shall be given to investments in entities that promote community economic development in addition, the direct investment of City funds is restricted as follows: these are investments made by City staff directly and funds are not part of a pool or other similar investment accounts (e.g., LAIF and investments for bond funds and trust). • No investments are to be made in tobacco or tobacco-related products. • No investments are to be made to support the production of weapons or military systems. • No investments are to be made to support the production or distribution of fossil fuels.
COLLATERALIZATION
California Government Code Section 53652, et seq. requires depositories to post certain types of collateral for public funds above the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation (FDIC) insurance amounts.
The collateral requirements apply to bank deposits, both active (checking and savings accounts) and inactive (non-negotiable certificates of deposit).
SAFEKEEPING AND CUSTODY
In accordance with California Government Code Section 53601, all securities owned by the City shall be held in safekeeping by the City's custodial bank or a third-party bank trust department, acting as an agent for the city under terms of the custody agreement. All securities will be received and delivered using a delivery vs. payment (DVP) basis, which ensures that securities are deposited with the thirdparty custodian prior to the release of funds. Securities held by the third-party custodian will be evidenced by safekeeping receipts and/or bank statements. Investments in the State Local Agency Investment Fund (LAIF) or money market mutual funds are undeliverable and are not subject to delivery or third-party safekeeping. Investment trades shall be verified against bank transactions and broker confirmation tickets. On a monthly basis, the custodial asset statement shall be reconciled with the month-end portfolio holdings. The City shall consider divesting in custodial banks or third-party banks that do not align with the sustainable and responsible investing requirements of this policy. Such decisions should be made in the best interest to the City.
FAIR VALUE MEASUREMENT AND APPLICATION
Governmental Accounting Standards Board (GASB) passed GASB statement 72 effective fiscal year 2016 which addresses accounting and financial reporting issues related to fair value measurements. The definition of fair value is the price that would be received to sell an asset or paid to transfer a liability in an orderly transaction between market participants at the measurement date. This Statement provides 5 71
guidance for determining a fair value measurement for financial reporting purposes. This Statement also provides guidance for applying fair value to certain investments and disclosures related to all fair value measurements. Determination can be obtained by the fiscal agent statements in which the City's cash and investments are held.
DIVERSIFICATION AND OTHER GUIDELINES
Credit risk is the risk that a security or a portfolio will lose some or all of its value due to a real or perceived change in the ability of the issuer to repay its debt. Credit risk will be mitigated by limiting investments to the types of securities authorized by this policy, using pre-qualified financial institutions, and diversifying the investment portfolio. The City will diversify its investments by security type, except for securities issued by the U.S. Government and its agencies, and by institution to reduce or eliminate risk of loss. The following guidelines shall apply:
• Maturities shall be matched against projected liabilities to avoid an over-concentration in a specific series of maturities.
• Maturities selected shall provide for stability and liquidity. • Expenditures and revenues will be carefully monitored and forecast to allow as much money to be invested as possible.
• In general, securities will be bought and kept to maturity. • The City's cash should be pooled.
• The Local Agency Investment Fund should be used to provide daily liquidity to the portfolio. The portfolio will be diversified to balance yield with other objectives.
PERFORMANCE STANDARDS
The investment portfolio will be managed in accordance with the standards established within this investment policy and should obtain a market rate of return throughout budgetary and economic cycles, considering the City's investment risk constraints, cash flow needs and maturities of its investments. The basis to determine whether market yields are being achieved shall be the total return of the portfolio.
The U.S. Treasury and U.S. Government agency securities yield curves shall be considered useful benchmarks of the City's portfolio performance.
REPORTING
The Finance Director shall submit to each member of the City Council a quarterly report. The report shall contain a complete description of the portfolio, including the types of investments, issuers, maturity dates, par values and current market values. The report will also include a certification of the following:
• All investments meet the requirements of the City's investment policy. • Sufficient investment liquidity and anticipated revenues are available to meet the City's budgeted expenditure requirements for the next six months.
ADOPTION
The investment policy shall be adopted annually by resolution of the City Council.

Agenda Staff Report
TO: Mayor & City Council Members
FROM: Charles Bergson, P. E. Public Works Dir
DATE: November 20, 2024
TYPE OF REPORT: Consent Agenda
SUBJECT: Authorizing Award of Construction Contract to Taylor Backhoe Service, Inc. in the amount of $367,592.05 with a 25% Contingency in the amount of $91,898.00 for the Animal Shelter Rehabilitation and Amend Fiscal Year 2024-25 Budget by Increasing Appropriations in the amount of $1,000,000.00.
Recommendation:
That the City Council adopts the Resolution to:
• Award the Construction Contract to Taylor Backhoe Service, Inc. and authorize the City Manager to execute the Construction Contract in the amount of $367,592.05.
Staff is requesting a 25% contingency of $91,898.00.
• Amend the Fiscal Year 2024-25 Budget by increasing appropriation amount in the ARPA fund account 206-410-100-720 by $789,760.00 and Police Capital Improvement fund account 245-421-100-720 by $210,240.00.
Background:
The Animal Shelter is located at 101 O Airport Rd Los Banos, CA 93635. Animal Control Services is headed by the Code Enforcement Sergeant and employs a team of two Code Enforcement Officers and two Animal Shelter Attendants. A variety of volunteer organizations are utilized to help care for, return and/or adopt animals that come to the shelter.
The Animal Shelter Project is vital for staff to be able to continue to provide excellent care for the animals in Los Banos. The deterioration throughout the building has led to safety 77 ITEM 7H
and health concerns. The site consists of unpaved surfaces, uncontrolled entrances, and aged perimeter fences.
Discussion:
The City worked with an Engineering Firm to design a modular building and site improvements. The project was designed to be constructed in two phases - demolition and replacement of the office complex, and then grading and all other site work. The first phase was awarded to BMY Construction Group, Inc. on February 21, 2024. This project is nearing completion.
The City released the advertisement for bid for the Animal Shelter Rehabilitation on September 25, 2024, held a pre-bid meeting on October 3, 2024 and bid opening on October 25, 2024. The City received six responsive bid.
Contractor Location Amount
BMY Construction Group, Inc. Fresno, CA $555,288.00
Taylor Backhoe Service, Inc. Merced, CA $326,268.30
Converaent Construction Milpitas, CA $429,013.00
Paradigm Construction, Inc. Modesto, CA $521,900.00
Westside Landscape & Concrete Newman, CA $458,218.61
Marvulli Commercial Merced, CA $505,824.90
Staff reviewed the bid proposals for completeness. Taylor Backhoe Service, Inc. has provided the lowest responsive and responsible bid for the project. Bid Item 11 was removed from the cost comparison, as this item was no longer in the plans and specifications. Staffing is recommending Taylor Backhoe Service, Inc. be awarded the contract for the construction of the Animal Shelter Rehabilitation, including the base bid of $326,268.30 plus the bid alternative of $41,323.75 with a 25% contingency. The administration of this contract, including the 25% contingency, is to be performed by the Public Works Director/City Engineer.
Fiscal Impact:
Available funding in Fiscal Year 2024-2025 from the ARPA Fund account number 206- 410-100-720 is $800,000. The appropriations from Fiscal Year 2023-24 for phase 1 were not carried over to the Fiscal Year 2024-25 budget. Therefore, staff is recommending City Council to amend this Fiscal Year budget by increasing appropriations in the amount of $1,000,000 (ARPA fund $789,760 and Police Capital Improvement fund $210,240.00).
This would bring the total available project budget to $1,800,000.00.

SUBJECT: Authorizing Award of Bid for the Purchase of Two (2) New 2024 Model ¾ Ton Medium Duty Utility Trucks with Lift Gates - Bid No. 25WA0019 Recommendation:
That the City Council adopts the Resolution to award the bid for the purchase of Two (2) 2024 Model ¾ Ton Medium Duty Utility Trucks with Lift Gates in the amount of $145,716.00; and authorize a purchase order to be issued to Greenwood Chevrolet in the amount of $145,716.00 for the purchase of Two (2) 2024 Model¾ Ton Medium Duty Utility Trucks with Lift Gates.
Discussion:
The Public Works Department and Parks and Recreation Department utilizes a variety of vehicles and equipment to provide essential services throughout the community. The City purchases new vehicles as staff expands or as the City evaluates their condition for replacement due to age and deterioration.
In the Fiscal Year 2024-2025 budget, City Council approved the addition of several trucks in the City's fleet. Bid documents for the purchase of Two (2) New 2024/2025 Model ¾ Ton Medium Duty Utility Trucks with Lift Gates, Bid No. 25WA0019 were released on Wednesday, August 28, 2024. A public notice was advertised on Wednesday, August 28, 2024 in the Westside Express. The bid opening occurred on Thursday, September 26, 2024. The Public Works Department, through the office of the City Clerk, received three (3) sealed bids. The following dealerships responded to the City's invitation:
Greenwood Chevrolet
McAuley Ford
Santos Ford
$145,716.00
$140,026.04
$160,000.00
ITEM 7I
89 After review of the submitted bid documents, it was determined that Greenwood Chevrolet was able to meet all specifications outlined in the bid package; therefore, making their bid the responsive and responsible bid. These trucks are included in their inventory and are available for delivery as soon as the purchase order is issued; therefore, staff is requesting awarding the purchase order to Greenwood Chevrolet for their total bid price in the amount of $145,716.00.
The trucks will replace Unit #4064, a 2003 Utility Truck with 191,490 miles; and Unit #4219, a 2014 Utility Truck with 143,284 miles. As these vehicles have continued to age and deteriorate, they have also become less dependable. The maintenance costs and reliability contribute to the decision of these replacements.
Fiscal Impact:
The Fiscal Impact of this purchase is $145,716.00. Funds have been allocated in the 2024-2025 Fiscal Year budget within the Water Fund account 501-461-100-750, Wastewater Collections Fund account 502-432-100-750 and the General Fund Parks Maintenance account 100-452-100-750.

TYPE OF REPORT: Consent Agenda
SUBJECT: Authorizing the Execution of an Amendment to Professional Services Agreement with PlaceWorks and Budget Amendment for Additional Services Related to the Los Banos 2042 General Plan Update Recommendation:
Staff recommends the City Council authorize the execution of a third amendment to Professional Services Agreement with PlaceWorks to include additional services necessary to amend the completed Los Banos General Plan Update 2042 in alignment with the Transportation Master Plan, including an addendum to the certified Environmental Impact Report (EIR).
Background:
On November 20, 2017, the City of Los Banos entered into a Professional Service Agreement in the amount of $669,393 with PlaceWorks for the preparation of the Los Banos General Plan Update. The City was awarded two (2) State SB2 Planning Grants (PGP & LEAP) that were utilized to fund the General Plan Update in the amount of $310,000.
On February 2, 2022, the City of Los Banos entered into a First Amendment to said Agreement to include additional services necessary for the preparation and completion of the Los Banos 2042 General Plan EIR specifically in the areas of biological resources and water supply assessment.
1 101
ITEM 7K
On January 4, 2023, the City of Los Banos entered into a Second Amendment to said Agreement to include additional services necessary for the preparation of GIS data development, map development, and final map deliverables to align with the completed Los Banos 2042 General Plan Update.
Since the completion of the Los Banos 2042 General Plan Update, the City has undergone the preparation of a Transportation Master Plan, which outlines critical transportation infrastructure and policies essential for the City's long-term transportation network. This process includes recommended revisions to the Circulation Element and other components of the Los Banos 2042 General Plan in order to ensure these two important planning documents are consistent.
The City Council may amend the budget by resolution adjusting the overall appropriation levels in each fund at any time during the fiscal year if there are available funds and council is in agreement with the request to adjust the budget.
Discussion:
Staff is requesting a Third Amendment to ensure the General Plan aligns with the new Transportation Master Plan. This amendment will include integrating transportationrelated objectives, policies, and actions that support sustainable development and mobility within Los Banos. The Third Amendment also includes an Addendum to the certified Environmental Impact Report which is necessary to ensure consistency with the Transportation Master Plan.
Fiscal Impact:
The fiscal impact of the contract amendment in Fiscal Year 2024-2025 would increase expenditures by $57,804.00 to account 100-419-100-238 for Technical Services.
A General Plan Maintenance Fee is collected with each building permit in the amount of 1 % of the valuation of each permit to revenue account 100-000-341-039. This fee is used to revise and prepare the General Plan as necessary.

Agenda Staff Report
TO: Mayor Llanez & City Council Members
FROM: Ray Reyna, Chief of Police ~
William A. Vaughn, City Attorney
DATE: November 20, 2024
SUBJECT: Ordinance Relating to Public Camping and Storage of Personal Property in Public Areas [Second Reading]
TYPE OF REPORT: Regular
Recommendation:
Staff recommends that the City Council consider waiving the second reading and approve the following ordinance:
ORDINANCE NO. 1205
AN ORDINANCE OF THE CITY OF LOS BANOS ADDING CHAPTER
11, TO TITLE 5 OF THE LOS BANOS MUNICIPAL CODE RELATING
TO PUBLIC CAMPING AND STORAGE OF PERSONAL PROPERTY
ON PUBLIC PROPERTY OR IN PUBLIC AREAS
Background:
On October 2, 2024 the City Council waived the first reading and introduced Ordinance No. 1205 which if adopted will add Chapter 11, to Title 5 of the Los Banos Municipal Code relating to public camping and storage of personal property on public property or in public areas.
The key provisions of the proposed ordinance are: 1) will make it unlawful and a public nuisance for any person to camp, occupy camp facilities, build, maintain or establish an 117
ITEM 8
Encampment, occupy an Encampment, use camp paraphernalia, or store or maintain personal property in or on Public Property or Waterways at any time, unless specifically authorized or permitted by the City, in writing; 2) authorizes the City Manager in his or her discretion, to issue a permit to establish, maintain and operate a camp or a camp facility on public property in connection with a special event; 3) any Encampment established in violation of the ordinance or unauthorized storage of personal property on public property is declared to be a public nuisance, and the City is authorized to abate the nuisance and remove the Encampment, Camp Paraphernalia, related facilities, and stored personal property as authorized by law and in accordance with the process set forth in the ordinance; and 4) establishes a notice and abatement process for removal of personal property from public property.
Johnson v. City of Grants Pass is a recently decided landmark case by the U.S.
Supreme Court, which addressed the legality of municipal ordinances prohibiting camping in public spaces. The case arose from the enforcement of anti-camping laws in Grants Pass, Oregon, which led to fines and penalties for homeless individuals camping on public property.
The plaintiffs argued that the city's ordinances criminalized the status of being homeless, thus violating the Eighth Amendment's prohibition on cruel and unusual punishment. The Ninth Circuit Court of Appeals had previously ruled in favor of the plaintiffs, holding that the ordinances were unconstitutional when applied to homeless individuals with no other place to go. This was consistent with the Ninth Circuit's decision in Martin v. Boise.
In a 6-3 decision, the Supreme Court reversed the Ninth Circuit's ruling, allowing the City of Grants Pass to enforce its anti-camping ordinances. The majority opinion, authored by Justice Neil Gorsuch, held that the ordinances did not violate the Eighth Amendment when they were applied in a manner targeting the conduct of camping in public spaces, rather than the status of being homeless.
After this decision, California Governor Newsom issued Executive Order N-1-24 which ordered the State agencies to work with local agencies to clean up encampments immediately where the encampment poses imminent threat to life, safety, or infrastructure.
Key Points from the Decision: Conduct vs. Status:
The Court distinguished between penalizing conduct (camping in public spaces) and penalizing status (being homeless). It emphasized that the ordinances were constitutional as long as they addressed the act of camping and not the individual's status as homeless.
Public Health and Safety: The Court acknowledged the city's interest in maintaining public health, safety, and welfare, which includes regulating the use of public spaces to prevent hazards and ensure accessibility for all community members. 118
Supportive Measures: The decision noted the importance of cities providing supportive services and resources to homeless individuals. The Court suggested that punitive measures alone are insufficient without adequate support systems.
Discussion:
The proposed ordinance aligns with the Supreme Court's decision by targeting the act of camping and storing personal property rather than the status of individuals. It ensures that enforcement is based on conduct, thereby avoiding unconstitutional penalties based on status. Provisions within the ordinance mandate that enforcement officers attempt to provide notice and opportunities for individuals to remove their belongings before any penalties are applied, ensuring a compassionate and fair approach.
Camping in public spaces often leads to health hazards, unsanitary conditions, and increased risks of fire and crime. The ordinance is necessary to mitigate these risks and maintain the safety and cleanliness of public spaces.
The City of Los Banos has demonstrated its commitment to a many pronged approach where enforcement is only one aspect, including the establishment of a Housing Department within the Community and Economic Development Department staffed by two full time employees. The resources provided by the City, County of Merced, and the State of California and various local nonprofits strive to ensure access to transitional and supportive housing programs, and other essential services.
Fiscal
None.
Conclusion
Staff recommends that the City Council waive the second reading and adopt Ordinance No. 1205. Staff will be available to answer any questions.

Chapter 11 - UNPERMITTED PUBLIC CAMPING AND PUBLIC STORAGE OF
PERSONAL PROPERTY IN PUBLIC AREAS
Sec. 5-11.01 Purpose.
The streets and public areas within the city should be readily accessible and available to residents and the public at large. The use of these areas for camping purposes or storage of personal property interferes with the rights of others to use the areas for which they were intended. Such activity can constitute a public health and safety hazard which adversely impacts neighborhoods and commercial areas. Unlawful camping on private property without the consent of the owner, proper sanitary measures and for other than a minimal duration adversely affects private property rights as well as public health, safety, and welfare of the city.
The purpose of this Chapter is to maintain streets, parks and other public and private areas within the city in a clean, sanitary and accessible condition; to establish a process for the collection, storage, disposal, or return of personal property found on public property; and to adequately protect the health, safety and public welfare of the community, while recognizing that, subject to reasonable conditions, camping and camp facilities associated with special events can be beneficial to the cultural and educational climate in the city.
Nothing in this Chapter is intended to interfere with otherwise lawful and ordinary uses of public or private property.

operation of the camp or camp facility, including, but not limited to, security, sanitation facilities, the number of occupants, posting of bonds or deposits, insurance, quiet hours, duration of the permit, and permitted activities on the premises. When the City Manager shall issue any permit under the terms of section 5-11.04 of this Chapter, the same may be revoked at any time thereafter by the City Manager if the City Manager becomes satisfied that the maintenance or continuing operation of the camp or camp facilities is adverse to the public health, safety and welfare.

(a) Notice and Removal. In the event of an unauthorized Encampment or unauthorized Personal Property is found on Public Property an authorized City employee or contractor (examples of authorized employees include, but are not limited to, employees of the City Police Department, City Code Enforcement, employees or contractors of City Public Works Department, and other City employees properly trained to carry out this section), such employee or contractor shall leave notice with the owner of the Personal Property, or prominently post the notice near the Personal Property, or prominently post the notice within the Encampment. The notice(s) shall contain all of the following information:
1. The requirement that the Personal Property be removed from Public Property;
2. The time frame that the property owner has to relocate the Personal Property. Such time frame shall not be less than 24 hours unless there is an immediate threat to the public health, safety, or welfare. Further, if the Personal Property obstructs and actually interferes with Public Property or the intended use of the Public Property, then this time frame may be shorter than 24 hours; provided, that if the property owner is present, they are first advised to cease the interference and/or to move the Personal Property causing the obstruction and they decline to do so;
3. A statement that, if the Personal Property is not removed within the time frame, then the City will remove and store the Personal Property consistent with this section. This statement shall also provide the location where the Personal Property will be stored;
6 125
4. If applicable, the nature and purpose of the cleanup and/or removal;
5. If applicable, the date, time, and locations of the scheduled cleanup and/or removal of the Personal Property;
6. A citation to the applicable section of the municipal code or any other applicable law;
7. A statement of how the Personal Property may be reclaimed;
8. A statement that, if Personal Property is removed pursuant to this section, then such Personal Property may be subject to disposal by the City pursuant to this section after 60 days from the date of removal;
9. A phone number that the person may call for more information; and
10. Any other additional information as determined by the City and/or City's Police Department.
After the time frame specified in the notice provided pursuant to this subsection (a), the Personal Property on the Public Property area may be removed, inventoried, stored, and disposed of by the City pursuant to this section. To the extent possible, the inventory list shall be provided to the property owner(s). For any Personal Property removed, a notice shall be posted in a prominent place in the removal area advising where the Personal Property is being kept and when it may be claimed by its rightful owner. The notice shall contain the information required by subsections (a)(1 )-(1 0) of this section and any other additional information as determined by the City and/or City's Police Department. This notice shall include the earliest date on which the removed Personal Property will be disposed of by the City pursuant to this section. (b) Additional Signage for Removal of Personal Property. The City may determine what, if any, areas of the City suffer from blight due to storage of Personal Property on any Public Property, and erect signs in those areas containing the applicable information specified in subsections (a)(1)-(10) of this section so as to provide additional notice.
(c) Holding and Disposal of Stored Personal Property. Except as provided in subsection (a) of this section, found Personal Property shall be deposited and inventoried in a safe place for a period of at least 60 days and found money shall be deposited with the Police Department in accordance with the Police Department cash handling policy for a period of not less than 60 days, unless sooner claimed by the true owner. In the event the property or money is not claimed within 60 days, it shall be deemed to be unclaimed Personal Property and subject to disposal as provided in this section, or as otherwise provided by law. Additionally, the City shall not be obligated to store Personal Property in excess of the City's then-current overall storage capacity. In this case, the City may dispose of unclaimed Personal Property prior to 60 days, but will 7 126
make reasonable efforts to contact the owner of such property prior to doing so. The City shall maintain a record of the date any impounded Personal Property was discarded.
(d) Trash, Contaminated, Dangerous, or Perishable Personal Property. Any Personal Property coming into the possession of the City and/or City's Police Department may be immediately disposed of without notice, in a manner that the City and/or City's Police Department determines to be in the public interest, when such Personal Property is trash, contaminated, dangerous, perishable, or contraband pursuant to State or Federal law, and/or constitutes an immediate threat to the public health, safety, or welfare.
(e) The owner of impounded Personal Property may repossess the Personal Property prior to its disposal upon submitting satisfactory proof of ownership. A person may establish proof of ownership by, among other methods, describing the location from and date when the Personal Property was impounded from a ·Public Area, and providing a reasonably specific and detailed description of the Personal Property. Valid, governmental-issued identification or other acceptable form of identification is required to claim impounded Personal Property.
(f) Additional Procedures. The City Manager may adopt additional notice and collection procedures, as necessary, to implement this section. (g) Applicability. To the extent known by the City or the City's Police Department, the provisions of this section shall not apply to the following:
1. Personal Property or money subject to confiscation pursuant to State or Federal law;
2. Personal Property that constitutes evidence in an ongoing criminal investigation and/or civil proceeding pursuant to State or Federal law;
3. Personal Property that has been abandoned by its owner. Abandoned Personal Property may be disposed of forthwith.
Sec 5-11.09 Enforcement.
(a) Any person violating any of the provisions of this Chapter shall be deemed guilty of a misdemeanor and, upon conviction, shall be punishable as set forth in Chapter 2 of Title 1 of this Code.
(b) In addition to any other remedy or penalty set forth in this Chapter or this Code, administrative penalties may be imposed pursuant to applicable provisions of Chapter 11 Title 4 of this Code against any responsible party, in violation of any of the provisions of this Chapter. Imposition, enforcement, collection and administrative review of administrative penalties imposed shall be conducted pursuant to Chapter 11 Title 4 of this Code.
8 127
(c) Remedies under this Chapter are in addition to, and do not supersede or limit, any and all other remedies, civil or criminal. The remedies provided for herein shall be cumulative and not exclusive.
SECTION 3. To the extent that the terms and provisions of this Ordinance may be inconsistent or in conflict with the terms or conditions of any prior City ordinance, motion, resolution, rule or regulation governing the same subject, the terms of this Ordinance shall prevail with respect to the subject matter thereof and such inconsistent or conflicting provisions of prior ordinances, motions, resolutions, rules or regulations are hereby repealed.
SECTION 4. If any section, subsection, subdivision, paragraph, sentence, clause or phrase added by this Ordinance, or any part thereof, is for any reason held to be unconstitutional or invalid or ineffective by any court of competent jurisdiction, such decision shall not affect the validity or effectiveness of the remaining portions of this Ordinance or any part thereof. The City Council hereby declares that it would have passed each section, subsection, subdivision, paragraph, sentence, clause or phrase thereof irrespective of the fact that any one or more subsections, subdivisions, paragraphs, sentences, clauses or phrases are declared unconstitutional, invalid or ineffective.
SECTION 5. The proposed amendments to the Los Banos Municipal Code do not propose any changes to City policies or regulations that would result in a direct or indirect physical environmental impact; therefore it has been determined that this ordinance amendment is covered by the general rule that the California Environmental Quality Act applies only to projects which have the potential for causing a significant effect on the environment pursuant to CEQA guidelines section 15601(b){3) and is not subject to environmental review.
SECTION 6. This Ordinance shall go into effect and be in full force and operation thirty (30) days after its final passage and adoption. The City Clerk shall certify to the adoption of this Ordinance and cause the same to be posted and published once within fifteen days after passage and adoption as may be required by law; or, in the alternative the City Clerk may cause to be published a summary of this Ordinance and a certified copy of the text of this Ordinance shall be posted in the Office of the City Clerk five days prior to the date of adoption of this Ordinance; and, within fifteen days after adoption, the City Clerk shall cause to be published, the aforementioned summary and shall post a certified copy of this Ordinance, together with the vote for and against the same, in the Office of the City Clerk.
