TO: Mayor Amabile and City Council Members
FROM: Stacy Souza Elms, Community and Economic Development Director DATE: July 1, 2026
TYPE OF REPORT: Presentation
SUBJECT: Downtown Parking Management Plan Discussion
______________________________________________________________________ Recommendation:
Staff recommends that the City Council provide input on key issues and concerns to be addressed in the Downtown Parking Management Plan.
Background:
Parking in the downtown area has been an ongoing topic for many years. Conditions vary depending on the time of day and location, but staff consistently hears a number of concerns, including:
• Employees of downtown businesses parking on the street, which limits convenient spaces for customers
• Limited availability of on-street parking during peak hours • Concerns that there is not enough parking overall, even though usage varies by block or location
• A need for time limits or better monitoring so vehicles do not take up prime spaces all day long
• Poor lighting in some public parking lots, which discourages people from parking farther away and walking
11 ITEM 7
• Traffic and parking challenges near downtown elementary schools, especially during drop-off and pick-up times
These concerns show downtown parking is not just about the number of spaces, but also how parking is managed and used.
The City is moving forward with preparing a Request for Proposals (RFP) to hire a consultant to develop a Downtown Parking Management Plan. This effort was identified as a key strategy in the City’s adopted Downtown Strategic Plan, which was developed through outreach and public input.
Before the RFP is released, staff is looking to the City Council for input on what issues and priorities should be studied so they can be built into the consultant’s scope of work.
Discussion:
The Downtown Parking Management Plan will take a comprehensive look at how parking is working today and where improvements can be made. The goal is to identify realistic strategies that improve access and support downtown businesses.
Based on feedback staff has received, the Plan could explore topics such as:
• Whether on-street parking should be prioritized for customers, and how to address employee parking
• Options to improve turnover in high-demand areas
• Strategies to address the perception and reality of limited parking supply • Improvements to lighting and safety in public parking lots • Ways to reduce traffic and parking impacts near schools, including potential dropoff and pick-up strategies • Ways to better balance the needs of employees, customers, residents, and visitors Staff welcomes any additional input from the City Council on these or other issues that should be included in the scope of work. The scope of work will also include public outreach, including engagement with businesses, property owners, and the community.
Next Steps:
After receiving City Council input, staff will incorporate feedback into the final scope of work and release the RFP. A consultant will be selected through a competitive process and the contract will be brought to the City Council for approval.
Once a draft Parking Management Plan is prepared, it will be presented to the City Council for review and discussion.
12 Fiscal Impact:
Funding for the Downtown Parking Management Plan is included in the Fiscal Year 2026- 2027 Budget (Account 100-419-100-231, Professional Services). The final contract amount will be determined through the RFP process.

The letter supported periodic reviews of Council compensation but opposed a substantial increase, advocated maintaining the volunteer nature of Council service, recommended voter approval for significant salary changes, opposed reducing public comment time, and opposed changing the Treasurer position to an appointed office, citing concerns regarding transparency, accountability, and public participation. The City Clerk also read a letter from resident MARIA PHILLIPS opposing the proposed reduction in public comment time from five minutes to three minutes. The letter stated that public comment is an important means of civic engagement, noted that meetings are not typically burdened by large numbers of speakers, and urged the Council to retain the existing five-minute limit to support transparency and meaningful public participation.

PUBLIC HEARING – TO RECEIVE PUBLIC COMMENT AND CONSIDERATION OF APPROVING AND ACCEPTING THE URBAN WATER MANAGEMENT PLAN 2025 UPDATE. Public Works Director Via presented the staff report, introducing Owen Kubit, Project Manager with Provost & Pritchard Consulting Group who spoke in more detail, which included a PowerPoint presentation, explaining that the plan is required every five years by the State and is necessary for eligibility for certain water-related grants and assistance programs. He reported that the City has met State per capita water conservation goals and achieved additional reductions in water use since 2020. He highlighted ongoing conservation efforts, including water meter replacements, and stated that future needs may include a new well, additional storage, chromium-6 treatment for wells, and evaluation of surface water supplies as a supplemental source.
Mayor Amabile opened the public hearing. KATHY BALLARD, a Los Banos resident, asked how the projected 1.5 percent population growth rate was determined and whether the Urban Water Management Plan would affect the amount of future development in the City. She also asked about the differences between surface water and groundwater, whether other cities use surface water, and whether surface water would be less expensive than continued reliance on groundwater wells. No one else came forward to speak and the public hearing was closed.
Mr. Kubit stated that the projected 1.5% annual population increase was based on approximately the past 10 years and is used for planning purposes only. Mayor Amabile commented on the differences between surface water and groundwater, noting that the City historically used surface water and is exploring alternatives due to chromium-6 requirements. City Manager Than explained that the population growth projections were based on Department of Finance estimates and account for future growth through 2050.
He also commended the community and staff for their water conservation efforts, noting that overall water use has declined despite population growth.
Motion by Lewis, seconded by Chavez to adopt City Council Resolution No. 7111 – Approving and Accepting the Urban Water Management Plan 2025 Update. The motion carried by the affirmative action of all Council Members present, Perez absent.
PUBLIC HEARING – TO RECEIVE PUBLIC COMMENT AND CONSIDERATION OF
AUTHORIZING THE LEVY AND COLLECTION OF ASSESSMENTS FOR WEED ABATEMENT WITHIN THE CITY OF LOS BANOS. Finance Director Moreno presented the staff report, which included a PowerPoint presentation. She stated that property owners had been notified and given an opportunity to correct nuisance conditions before the City performed abatement work. A total of 24 parcels remained unpaid, with 21 outstanding costs totaling $12,949.84. Required public notices were published and posted, and staff recommended adoption of a resolution authorizing placement of the unpaid assessments on the County tax roll to recover costs and reduce impacts to the General Fund.
Mayor Amabile opened the public hearing. No one came forward to speak and the public hearing was closed.
Council Member LLamas asked whether placing unpaid weed abatement costs on the tax roll was the normal process. Ms. Moreno responded that the item typically comes before the Council annually, although it had not been brought forward since Fiscal Year 2022-23, and explained that placement on the tax roll is the most effective method for recovering costs because liens are placed on the properties. Mr. LLamas also asked whether property owners had an opportunity to contest or demonstrate efforts to correct violations. Ms. Moreno responded that the abatements had already been completed by the City's contractor, invoices had been issued, and collection efforts had been made.
Motion by Chavez, seconded by LLamas to adopt City Council Resolution No. 7112 – Authorizing the Levy and Collection of Assessments for Weed Abatement within the City of Los Banos. The motion carried by the affirmative action of all Council Members present, Perez absent.
PUBLIC HEARING – TO RECEIVE PUBLIC COMMENT AND CONSIDERATION OF ADOPTING THE APPROPRIATION LIMIT FOR FISCAL YEAR 2026-2027. Finance Director Moreno presented the staff report, which included a PowerPoint presentation, explaining that it is a state-mandated calculation establishing the maximum amount of tax proceeds the City may appropriate in a fiscal year. The limit is required annually under Proposition 4 and is calculated using factors provided by the California Department of Finance, including changes in per capita personal income and population growth. Ms.
Moreno reported the applicable adjustment factors for FY 2026-27 and stated that the City’s updated appropriation limit is approximately $144 million. It was noted that current City tax proceeds are well below this limit. Staff recommended opening the public hearing, receiving public comment, closing the hearing, and adopting the resolution.
Mayor Amabile opened the public hearing. No one came forward to speak and the public hearing was closed.
Motion by Lewis, seconded by Chavez to adopt City Council Resolution No. 7113 – Adopting the Appropriation Limit in Compliance with Proposition 4 and Proposition 111 for Fiscal Year 2026-2027, Perez absent.
PUBLIC HEARING – TO RECEIVE PUBLIC COMMENT AND CONSIDERATION OF ADOPTION OF THE FISCAL YEAR 2026-2027 BUDGET. Finance Director Moreno presented the staff report, which included a PowerPoint presentation, making note that the budget is a “living document” that outlines estimated revenues and planned expenditures and is updated as financial conditions change. She reported General Fund revenues of approximately $29.5 million, with major sources including property tax, sales 22 tax, and vehicle license fees. General Fund expenditures total approximately $27.76 million, with the largest allocations to Police, Fire, Community Development, Administration, and Maintenance. She noted increases in personnel, supplies, and contingency costs compared to the prior fiscal year. She also highlighted one-time General Fund projects, including the new service center design, street improvements, and other capital projects, totaling approximately $12.6 million. Ms. Moreno noted an overall General Fund surplus of about $1.7 million, along with a stabilized fund balance and reserve levels. She stated that 21 new positions are included in the budget, with no changes from prior presentations. Updates were also provided for Measure H and Measure P funds, including a correction adding a previously omitted police officer.
Enterprise funds (Water, Wastewater, Airport, and Solid Waste) and internal service funds (Fleet, Facilities, and IT) were summarized, with no significant changes from the prior presentation. She concluded by stating the City’s total capital program is approximately $71 million across all funds and remained unchanged from the prior presentation.
Mayor Amabile opened the public hearing. No one came forward to speak and the public hearing was closed. Mayor Amabile noted the budget had been presented multiple times, including extended public workshops totaling several hours, highlighting that the proposed budget includes an estimated 10% surplus and a 30% reserve, which exceeds typical municipal reserve levels of 15–20%. The City Council expressed appreciation for staff efforts and emphasized the transparency and extensive review process used to develop the budget.
Motion by Chavez, seconded by Lewis to adopt City Council Resolution No. 7114 – Approving the 2026-2027 Fiscal Year Budget and Updated Salary Schedule (Division 4).
The motion carried by the affirmative action of all Council Members present, Perez absent.
PUBLIC HEARING – TO RECEIVE PUBLIC COMMENT AND CONSIDERATION OF
INTRODUCTION AND WAIVER OF FIRST READING OF ORDINANCE AMENDING SECTIONS 2-1.302 AND 2-1.303 OF TITLE 2, CHAPTER 1, ARTICLE 3 OF THE LOS BANOS MUNICIPAL CODE TO INCREASE ELECTEDS’ COMPENSATION. Mayor Amabile noted the item had previously been continued when Council Member Chavez was absent and stated that tonight Council Member Perez is also absent. The Mayor asked whether the Council wished to proceed or continue the item to a future meeting.
Council Member Lewis asked about the timing requirements, and City Attorney Lerner stated the ordinance would need to be adopted prior to the November election to take effect within the applicable timeframe. Council Member Lewis indicated no objection to continuing the item to the July 1, 2026 meeting.
Council Member Lewis made a motion to continue the item to July 1, 2026.
City Manager Than suggested that Council Member Perez, who was expected to arrive later that evening, could be allowed to hear the item if it was taken up as the last item on the agenda around her estimated arrival time of 7:49 p.m. The Council ultimately agreed to move the item to the end of the agenda, with the understanding it would be addressed then or continued to the July 1, 2026 meeting if necessary. 23 [Council Member Perez arrived at 7:48 pm and this item was heard after item 13 – Discussion and Direction on Proposed Comparable Cities for the Market Rental Rate Study.]
City Manager Than presented the staff report, and explained that the item stemmed from Council direction given at the March 4, 2026 meeting, was initially noticed for an April 15, 2026 hearing, but was later pulled and reintroduced for consideration at this meeting. If approved, the ordinance would establish a revised salary schedule for City Council members and set compensation for the Mayor. He noted that the staff report included prior background information as well as public records related to elected official compensation, including salaries, benefits, travel reimbursements, and cell phone allowances. Mr. Than indicated that the Council was being asked to consider introduction of the ordinance amendment and stated that staff was available to respond to any questions.
Mayor Amabile opened the public hearing. ERASMO VIVEROS, expressed appreciation to the Mayor and City Council for addressing concerns raised at a previous meeting regarding elected official compensation. He noted that additional information had been included in the updated staff report, particularly related to funding, health care, and other benefits received by Council members, which improved transparency for the public. He also referenced compensation and reporting related to service on outside boards and commissions, such as the air quality control district, acknowledging that while those roles are separate entities, the additional disclosure provided helpful context. Concluded by thanking the Council for the added information and transparency. City Clerk Mallonee read a letter from Larry Byers in support of updating the Mayor and City Council compensation, noting that current salaries were originally established in 1989 and had not been adjusted in 37 years. He referenced major historical events from that year to emphasize the passage of time and argued that it was appropriate for compensation to be updated to reflect 2026 standards. He stated that the timing was appropriate for a “transition” in salaries and expressed confidence that the Council would set fair compensation in line with comparable cities. He concluded by supporting the proposal and encouraging the Council to move forward with the adjustment. No one else came forward to speak and the public hearing was closed.
City Manager Than provided additional background on the proposed ordinance, explaining the structure of the compensation changes and how the item had been brought forward following prior Council direction. Council Member Lewis noted her role as an elected representative to the San Joaquin Valley Air Pollution Control District and clarified that information regarding compensation for that role is publicly available through records requests or posted online. The Mayor added that he also serves on multiple boards without receiving compensation for those appointments. Council Member LLamas referenced compensation in comparable cities such as Merced and suggested that should be considered when evaluating appropriate pay levels. Council Member Perez emphasized the importance of updating compensation to reflect current expectations and responsibilities for elected officials. Mayor Amabile reiterated his position that compensation should be updated for the future and proposed setting compensation at the state-allowed maximums while allowing flexibility, suggesting a range approach where 24 individual Council members could choose to accept less than the set amount. He also expressed interest in a per-meeting compensation model, though staff clarified that any such approach would need to be voluntary and structured within legal constraints. City Manager Than noted that Council compensation is also tied to attendance expectations and policy requirements, which function as part of the overall accountability framework for elected officials. Council Member Chavez asked for clarification on whether the proposed compensation levels aligned with state limits for cities of similar population size, and staff confirmed the applicable statutory cap for general law cities in that population range. Council Member Lewis requested clarification on the ordinance structure, specifically the breakdown between Council and Mayor compensation. City Attorney Lerner explained that the ordinance separates compensation into two components due to the Mayor’s additional statutory duties, which justify an incremental increase above the base Council salary.
Motion by Lewis, seconded by Amabile to introduce Ordinance No. 1215 – Amending Sections 2-1.302 and 2-1.303 of Title 2, Chapter 1, Article 3 of the Los Banos Municipal Code to Increase Electeds’ Compensation. AYES: Chavez, Lewis, Perez, Amabile; NOES: LLamas; ABSENT: None.
CONSIDERATION OF ADOPTION OF CITY COUNCIL RESOLUTION NO. 7115 –
ORDERING THE SUBMISSION TO THE QUALIFIED ELECTORS OF THE CITY OF A
MEASURE RELATING TO THE APPOINTMENT OF THE CITY TREASURER AT THE GENERAL ELECTION TO BE HELD ON TUESDAY, NOVEMBER 3, 2026, AS CALLED BY RESOLUTION NO. 7101. City Attorney Lerner presented the staff report, that on direction from the June 3, 2026 Council meeting to bring back a resolution for consideration of placing a measure on the ballot regarding whether the City Treasurer position should remain elected or become appointed. She explained that the City of Los Banos, as a general law city, is required to maintain the office of City Treasurer. Currently, the position is elected by voters; however, California law allows voters to decide whether to transition the role to an appointed position. She outlined that the proposed resolution would place the measure on the November 3, 2026 ballot, direct preparation of an impartial analysis by the City Attorney, establish procedures for ballot arguments and rebuttals, and coordinate with the Merced County Elections Department. The estimated cost to place the measure on the ballot is approximately $7,500, which the City would reimburse to the County. The resolution does not advocate for or against the measure, but simply allows voters to decide. If approved by voters, future Council action would be required to implement an appointed treasurer structure and address any related fiscal impacts. Mayor Amabile clarified that the measure would be presented to voters in the official election materials and that the City would not spend funds to advocate for or against the proposal.
Mayor Amabile invited the public to come forward to speak. KATHY BALLARD, a resident of Los Banos, spoke in opposition to sending the question of appointing the City Treasurer to the ballot. She referenced a prior election on the issue and stated that public concerns at that time were related to trust in City representation. She noted that in her view, the City’s financial processes and transparency have improved, and that the Finance Department is currently experienced and responsive. She expressed that the City could 25 save the cost of a ballot measure by handling the Treasurer role internally through appointment rather than election. She concluded that, in her opinion, the Council could consider keeping the decision within the City rather than sending it to voters. ERASMO VIVEROS stated they were initially not planning to speak but had questions after hearing the discussion. They asked for clarification on the current structure of the City Treasurer position, specifically whether the City is paying a separate salary for a Treasurer in addition to the Finance Director, or whether the Finance Director is effectively performing most of the Treasurer duties. He also stated they were unclear on how the roles are currently divided and indicated they would need to do further research on their own. He asked whether transitioning the position to an appointed role would primarily serve as an additional layer of checks and balances to improve public trust and financial oversight.
No one else came forward to speak.
Finance Director Moreno stated most Treasurer-related work is performed by the Finance Department, noting increased technical requirements. She said the Treasurer receives a small stipend and benefits, and expressed concerns about the level of review required before signing financial documents. She added that financial accountability remains within the Finance Department and that audits provide key checks and balances. Council Member Lewis referenced the prior 2024 ballot measure and noted the position has historically been largely ceremonial, with limited required duties. She suggested moving the role in-house under Finance could reduce costs and better align responsibilities, emphasizing no criticism of the current Treasurer. Council Member LLamas emphasized the importance of voter control and transparency, noting the Treasurer’s accountability to the public. Council Member Chavez stated there are valid points on both sides, referencing transparency and administrative concerns. City Manager Than explained that Public Records Act requests are handled by staff regardless of structure and noted the Treasurer’s statutory duties are defined by law. He questioned whether an elected, minimally compensated position is appropriate for overseeing a complex municipal budget and emphasized audits and internal controls as safeguards. Ms. Moreno added that if the role remains elected, additional training would be necessary to ensure proper understanding and sign-off of financial documents. Mayor Amabile concluded that the final decision rests with the voters if the measure is placed on the ballot.
Motion by Lewis, seconded by Chavez to adopt City Council Resolution No. 7115 – Ordering the Submission to the Qualified Electors of the City of a Measure Relating to the Appointment of the City Treasurer at the General Election to be Held on Tuesday, November, 3 2026, as Called by Resolution No. 7101. The motion carried by the following roll call vote: AYES: Chavez, Lewis, LLamas, Amabile; NOES: None; ABSENT: Perez.
CONSIDERATION OF ADOPTION OF CITY COUNCIL RESOLUTION NO. 7116 –
APPROVING THE AWARD OF CONTRACT TO FORTUNE-RATLIFF GENERAL CONTRACTORS, INC. AND PAUL HALAJIAN ARCHITECTS FOR THE LOS BANOS
CIVIC CENTER PROJECT AND AUTHORIZING THE CITY MANAGER TO EXECUTE THE AGREEMENT. Community & Economic Development Director Souza Elms presented the staff report, which included a PowerPoint presentation, providing background on the project, noting the former police annex at 535 J Street was evaluated in 2024 for conversion into a Development Services/Civic Center facility, with initial 26 estimated costs of approximately $7.8 million. The City previously entered a design-build contract in 2025, which was later terminated in May 2026 due to difficulties reaching a guaranteed maximum price. Ms. Souza then negotiated with the next highest-ranked team, Fortune Ratliff and Paul Halashian Architects, to restart the design phase and proceed through pre-construction, cost estimating, and development of a guaranteed maximum price within the approved budget. She highlighted the team’s public sector experience and noted comparable completed projects, including government facility tenant improvements such as a former bank building converted for county services.
Funding for the project is already included in the FY 2025-26 and 2026-27 budgets, with a $7.8 million project allocation and a $200,000 contingency. Representatives from the selected design-build team were present in the audience, and staff expressed enthusiasm for restarting and advancing the project.
Mayor Amabile invited the public to come forward. No one came forward to speak.
Council Member Lewis asked for the projected start date and completion timeline if the contract were approved. Staff responded that the project includes approximately a 5- month design phase and a 15-month construction period, totaling about 20 months, with the goal of potentially completing the project sooner. City Manager Than discussed interim “stopgap” plans, including temporary use and improvements to existing facilities to support departments such as fire and police while the Civic Center project is underway.
Council Member Lewis asked whether the project would largely follow the previously developed design. Staff responded that the design-build team would have flexibility to make adjustments as needed to meet program requirements and stay within budget.
Mayor Amabile noted that the project would provide long-term space to accommodate City staffing and growth needs over the next 20 to 30 years.
Motion by Chavez, seconded by Lewis to adopt City Council Resolution No. 7116 – Approving the Award of Contract to Fortune-Ratliff General Contractors, Inc. and Paul Halajian Architects for the Los Banos Civic Center Project and Authorizing the City Manager to Execute the Agreement. The motion carried by the affirmative action of all Council Members present, Perez absent.
CONSIDERATION OF ADOPTION OF CITY COUNCIL RESOLUTION NO. 7117 – ADOPTING A LIST OF PROJECTS FOR FISCAL YEAR 2026-2027 FUNDED BY SB 1:
THE ROAD REPAIR AND ACCOUNTABILITY ACT OF 2017. Public Works Director Via presented the staff report, which included a PowerPoint presentation, explaining that SB1 funds are combined with Measure V and General Fund resources to maintain and improve city streets. He noted that the City must submit an annual project list to the State by July 1, and later report on completed work for transparency and accountability.
Projects are identified using pavement management software and prioritized based on condition and cost-effectiveness. He outlined planned 2026-27 work, including major improvements along I Street, Ortigalita Road, Page Avenue, Monta Vista, Stonewood, and Fairmont, as well as ADA ramp upgrades. The budget allocates approximately $8.95 million for street maintenance, including roughly $600,000 for ADA improvements funded through Measure V’s alternative transportation component. He also explained that 27 internal crews handle smaller overlay projects while larger reconstruction projects are designed and contracted out.
Mayor Amabile invited the public to come forward. No one came forward to speak. [Mayor Amabile noted that Council Member Perez arrived at the meeting at 7:48 p.m.] Council Member Lewis asked about the different project categories, and Director Via explained the distinction between in-house overlays, current construction projects, projects in design, and future rehabilitation projects. Council Member Chavez noted that Highway 165/152 was not included and Mr. Via explained that those roadways are the responsibility of Caltrans and are not maintained by the City.
Motion by Chavez, seconded by Lewis to adopt City Council Resolution No. 7117 – Adopting a List of Project for Fiscal Year 2026-2027 Funded by SB 1: The Road Repair and Accountability Act of 2017. The motion carried by the affirmative action of all Council Members present.
DISCUSSION AND DIRECTION ON PROPOSED COMPARABLE CITIES FOR THE MARKET RENTAL RATE STUDY. Finance Director Moreno presented the staff report, explaining that the City had previously directed staff to issue an RFP, which was awarded to Bay Area Economics (BAE). She noted that staff held a kickoff meeting with the consultant to begin the study process and review the methodology for identifying comparable cities. As part of the initial phase, BAE developed a list of proposed comparison cities based on similar facilities, population size, and regional characteristics, which was included in the staff report. The purpose of the item was for City Council to review and provide direction on the proposed list of comparable cities so the consultant can proceed with the market rental rate analysis for City facilities. Approval of the list would allow the study to move forward without further delay, enabling staff to complete the assessment of fair market rental rates and continue with the broader analysis of Cityowned properties and facilities.
Mayor Amabile invited the public to come speak. No one came forward to speak.
Council Member Lewis made a recommendation to proceed with staff’s proposed list of comparable cities for the Market Rental Rate Study. Council members indicated general agreement and supported moving forward with the consultant’s work.
Council Member LLamas added that while they understood the purpose of establishing comparable market rates, they wanted consideration of affordability for local residents, noting that many community members live near or below the poverty line and rely on City facilities for personal and cultural events. The comment emphasized balancing marketbased pricing with community accessibility.
The Council provided consensus direction to staff to proceed with the study with the listed cities as staff recommended.

FROM: William Via, Jr, Public Works Director
DATE: July 1, 2026
TYPE OF REPORT: Consent Agenda
SUBJECT: Amendment No. 1 to the Professional Services Agreement with Mark Thomas & Company, Inc. for Engineering Design Services for the State Route 165 and Vineyard Drive Intersection Project and Approval of a $30,000 Budget Appropriation Increase
______________________________________________________________________ Recommendation:
That the City Council adopt the Resolution approving Amendment No. 1 to the Professional Services Agreement with Mark Thomas & Company, Inc. for Engineering Design Services for the State Route 165 and Vineyard Drive Intersection Project in the amount of $101,486.75, increasing the contract's not-to-exceed amount to $795,964.75; approve a $30,000 appropriation increase to Lamoglia Fund account 233-430-220-716; and authorize the City Manager to execute the Amendment.
Background:
The State Route (SR) 165 and Vineyard Dr Intersection Project is located north of Overland Avenue. Vineyard Drive is a two-lane divided collector that currently terminates at the west side of Caltrans right of way SR 165 and does not connect to the highway. The east side of SR 165 is Dove Avenue that provides side street stop-controlled connection to the highway. The proposed project will extend Vineyard Dr to SR 165, install intersection control, and provide utility coordination/relocations (undergrounding of overhead lines) and enclose the ditch into a pipeline.
The design process includes:
• Prepare Plans Specification and Estimate
• Lead Caltrans coordination and approvals
• Design level survey and right of way mapping
49 ITEM 10E
• Traffic Study- ICE Report
• Prepare right of way appraisals and acquisition documents (if needed) • Lead utility coordination and undergrounding/relocation • Design underground open channel
• Prepare draft and final CEQA documentation
• Provide environmental permitting supports
• Assist with MCAG coordination
• Bidding assistance and construction support
Discussion:
On July 19, 2023, City Council adopted Resolution 6665, authorizing the City Manager to enter into a Professional Services Agreement with Mark Thomas & Company, Inc. for Engineering Design Services for the State Route 165 and Vineyard Dr. Intersection Project, with a not to exceed amount of $694,478.00.
Staff is recommending the approval of Amendment No. 1, due to additional analysis required by Caltrans.
Fiscal Impact:
The current agreement is for a not-to-exceed amount of $694,478.00. Amendment No. 1 would increase the contract by $101,486.75, resulting in an amended not-to-exceed amount of $795,964.75. The current fiscal year budget includes appropriations in the Lamoglia Fund account 233-430-220-716; however, an additional $30,000 in appropriations is required to accommodate the amendment and ensure sufficient budget authority for the remaining contract expenditures.

Task 9.1: Preliminary Environmental Study
54 March 25, 2026 Page 3
GPA will initiate the Caltrans environmental review process by completing the Preliminary Environmental Study (PES). The PES will identify the appropriate level of environmental review, all federal, state, and local agencies from which discretionary approvals or permits would be required, efforts to comply with NEPA, and the anticipated NEPA pathway and rationale. Once all the necessary information is gathered and reviewed, GPA will prepare a PES Form and coordinate the review and approval with Caltrans. The PES Form will be completed pursuant to Caltrans’ SER and Local Assistance Procedures Manual (LAPM) and will include a reasonable explanation for all checklist answers. GPA will prepare a questionnaire to determine the level of Visual Impact Assessment (VIA) needed for the project, which will be reviewed and approved by a licensed landscape architect employed by or subcontracted by the Prime. GPA will submit the Draft PES Form to the City for review and approval. GPA assumes a field review will not be required to process the PES.
Once the Draft PES. The City has approved the form; GPA will finalize the revisions, submit the PES Form to Caltrans, and coordinate as needed for review and approval. Based on the project description provided by the Prime and coordination with Caltrans and the City, the PES Form is anticipated to identify the need for technical studies, as described below.
However, depending on the final project description, project limits, and the judgment of Caltrans Local Assistance staff, additional technical studies not identified below may be required to complete the NEPA documentation. If additional technical studies are identified upon completion of the PES Form, GPA will provide an additional scope and fee to complete the required documentation to support NEPA compliance.

TYPE OF REPORT: Consent Agenda
SUBJECT: Accepting a Grant Deed for a 390+ square feet of public pedestrian easement located at 709 and 717 Nevada Avenue.
________________________________________________________________________ Recommendation:
That the City Council of the City of Los Banos adopts a resolution for the acceptance of a Grant Deed for a 390+ square feet of public pedestrian easement located at 709 and 717 Nevada Avenue. The land involved is more specifically, portions of Assessor Parcel No. 027-051-020-000 and 027-051-021-000. The attached resolution authorizes the City Manager to execute all required documents for this dedication.
Background and Discussion:
The improvement plans for two single-family residences located at 709 and 717 Nevada Avenue were approved by the Public Works Department in April 2025. During construction it was determined that a portion of sidewalk along the frontage of both properties remained on private property and required dedication to the City of Los Banos through a public pedestrian easement. In May 2026 documents for the required easement dedication were provided by the applicant and approved by the City’s Consulting Professional Land Surveyor. The property owner then requested City Council for the City of Los Banos be presented with the Grant Deed for a 390+ square feet of public pedestrian easement located at 709 and 717 Nevada Avenue for acceptance. The land involved is more specifically, a 390+ square feet portion of Assessor Parcel No. 027-051-020-000 and 027-051-021-000. 103

Background:
Council opened and closed the public hearing, waived the first reading and introduced the ordinance on June 17, 2026.
Discussion:
The City has the following elected positions: Mayor, four Council Members, the City Clerk and the City Treasurer.
In 2023, Governor Newsom signed into law Senate Bill 329 (“SB 329”) which increased the maximum amount of salary that council members may receive. This legislation amended Government Code section 36516 and was intended to increase the compensation schedule for council members in general law cites such as Los Banos. Government Code section 36516 allows cities to increase the compensation to adjust for inflation in order to help keep city councils more diverse by allowing people from across different income levels to serve the public which is the basis for this ordinance revision.
Government Code section 36516 authorizes a city council to enact an ordinance to provide each member of the city council a salary, with the maximum limit based upon the population of the city in accordance with a specific schedule. Any increases in salary are also limited and cannot exceed 5% for each calendar year from the operative date of the last adjustment of the salary that is in effect when the increase is enacted or an amount equal to inflation since January 1, 2024, based on the California Consumer Price Index (not to exceed 10% per calendar year) noting however that no ordinance can be enacted or amended to provide for automatic future increases. Each increase would require an ordinance amendment and go into effect when new council members are seated.
According to DOF estimates as of January 1, 2026, the Los Banos population is 49,255. As such, the Government Code allows for an increase for members of City Council up to and including one thousand two hundred seventy-five dollars ($1,275) per month. (See, Government Code section 36516 2 “(a) (1) A city council may enact an ordinance providing that each member of the city council shall receive a salary based on the population of the city as set forth in paragraph (2)… (2) The salaries approved by ordinance under paragraph (1) shall be as follows…(B) In cities over 35,000 up to and including 50,000 in population, up to and including one thousand two hundred seventy- five dollars ($1,275) per month.” Also, note that pursuant to Government Code section 36516.1, a mayor may be provided with compensation in addition to that which he/she receives as a council member. That additional compensation would be provided pursuant to ordinance.
Pursuant to the Los Banos Municipal Code section 2-1.303, the current salary for City Council members is three hundred dollars ($300) per month and the current salary for the Mayor is four hundred dollars ($400) per month. This amount has remained unchanged for many years and is significantly below the maximum amount authorized by state law for cities with populations between 35,000 and 50,000. The original compensation amount was codified in 1966. That original amount was $150.00 per council member, including the Mayor. Approximately 23 years later in 1989, the amount was increased to $300 for council members and $400.00 for the Mayor. There were subsequent ordinance adoptions cleaning up the language in the relevant municipal code sections in 1989, 2003 and 2015. However, the salary amounts remained at $300 124
for council members and $400 for the mayor. So, the last increase to the council/Mayor base salary was approximately 37 years ago.
Attached to this staff report is a report of earnings and benefits for each council member by calendar year 2025 and year to date 2026. Also attached is a report of cell phone and travel related reimbursement for each council member from January 1, 2025 through May 18, 2026 (the date of the preparation of this staff report). Government Code section 36516 (d) states “[a]ny amounts paid by a city for retirement, health and welfare, and federal social security benefits shall not be included for purposes of determining salary under this section, provided that the said benefits are available and paid by the city for its employees.” In addition, Government Code section 36516(e) provides that “[a]ny amounts paid by a city to reimburse a council member for actual and necessary expenses pursuant to Section 36515.5 shall not be included for purposes of determining salary pursuant to this section.” Since Los Banos is a general law city, pursuant to Government Code section 36516.5, the increase for Council Members would go into effect following the next regular election in November 2026, when the newly elected Council Members are seated. However, directly elected Mayors (such as in Los Banos) are eligible to have increases go into effect during current terms. The Attorney General has ruled that the prohibition against “mid-term” salary increases, applicable to council members pursuant to section 36516.5, does not apply to elected mayors. The additional compensation for performing mayoral duties is not received as “a councilperson.” 89 Ops.Cal.Atty.Gen. 159 (2006) If the Municipal Code amendment is adopted, it would take effect 30 days after adoption for the Mayor, and would take effect for council members following the next regular election/seating of council members (November 2026).
Should Council want to increase the salary of the City Clerk and/or the City Treasurer, it is recommended that a salary schedule be revised and approved for each position.
Fiscal Impact:
An increase in council compensation to the maximum allowed of one thousand two hundred seventy-five dollars ($1,275) per month, and one thousand five hundred dollars ($1,500) per month for the Mayor. This amount will be charged to the general fund (25%), water (25%), wastewater (25%), and solid-waste fund (25%). Approval of the proposed Ordinance will result in a Fiscal Year 2026-27 budget increase of $43,876 to fund associated salary and benefit costs. The budget amendment will be allocated among the General Fund, Water Fund, Wastewater Fund, and Solid Waste Fund as follows:
• General Fund (100): $10,969 • Water Fund (501): $10,969 • Wastewater Fund (502): $10,969 • Solid Waste Fund (510): $10,969 125

Agenda Staff Report
TO: Mayor Amabile and City Council Members
FROM: Stacy Souza Elms, Community and Economic Development Director DATE: July 1, 2026
TYPE OF REPORT: Agenda Item
SUBJECT: Amendment to Professional Services Agreement with Fehr and Peers for Additional Roadway Segment Analysis for the Los Banos Transportation Master Plan Update and Authorize an Amendment to Fiscal Year 2026- 2027 Budget in Traffic Impact Fee Fund.
______________________________________________________________________ Recommendation:
Adopt a resolution authorizing the City Manager to execute an amendment to the Professional Services Agreement with Fehr & Peers to provide additional scope of services for the Traffic Master Plan Update, in an amount not to exceed $53,914.00, for a revised total contract amount of $319,329.00, and authorize a budget amendment to the Fiscal Year 2026-2027 budget in the Traffic Impact Fee fund account 230-430-220- 231 by $41,000.
Background:
On March 29, 2023, the City entered into a Professional Services Agreement with Fehr & Peers to prepare the City’s Transportation Master Plan (TMP) Update. The TMP serves as a key planning tool to evaluate transportation conditions, identify needed improvements, and establish the basis for the City’s Traffic Impact Fee (TIF) Program.
Since initiation of the TMP Update, the City has identified the need to evaluate additional roadway improvement alternatives beyond those originally analyzed, specifically in lieu of the proposed 152 Bypass.
149
ITEM 11
Discussion:
Fehr & Peers has submitted a proposal to perform additional analysis of roadway improvement scenarios. The proposed additional services include the evaluation of up to six roadway segment packages consisting of new, extended, or expanded roadway facilities within the City’s Sphere of Influence. The six segments will be analyzed in the MCAG travel demand model to determine their effectiveness in realigning traffic volumes away from key corridors in the City. Fehr & Peers will then prepare a qualitative assessment of how the diversion of traffic volumes would reduce the need for previously identified improvements within the City, promote the completion of other projects such as the Pacheco Boulevard Complete Streets Plan, and address truck movements.
Fehr & Peers will be working with Mark Thomas as a subconsultant to prepare cost estimates for up to four roadway segments. The cost estimates will include major components such as intersections, bridges, and railroad crossings.
Fiscal Impact:
The proposed amendment will increase the contract amount by $53,914, including subconsultant costs, for a revised total contract amount of $319,329.00.
A corresponding budget amendment in the Traffic Impact Fee fund account 230-430-220- 231 by $41,000 is necessary to appropriate the funding for this amendment.

Subject: Proposal to Provide Additional Roadway Segment Analysis for the Los Banos Transportation Master Plan Update
Dear Ms. Elms,
Thank you for asking Fehr & Peers to prepare this proposal to provide additional transportation planning and engineering services for the Los Banos Transportation Master Plan (TMP) Update. As we discussed, we understand that the City requests that Fehr & Peers run additional improvement scenarios considering additional roadway extensions in the City in lieu of constructing the proposed freeway bypass of the City. This additional work will include new model runs using the MCAG Model, additional Synchro Level of Service (LOS) analysis, and new cost estimates for proposed improvements to be incorporated into the Traffic Impact Fee and the TMP.
Our related proposed scope of work, schedule and fee estimate are presented below.
Scope of Work
Our scope of work is as follows. The task numbering below references a new task within the existing TMP contract.
Task 3.3: Additional Roadway Segment Analysis
Fehr & Peers will analyze up to six roadway segment packages considering new, lengthened, or expanded roadway facilities within the City’s Sphere of Influence. The six packages will first be analyzed in the MCAG travel demand model to determine their effectiveness in realigning traffic volumes away from key corridors in the City. Tiering from TMP work to date, Fehr & Peers will qualitatively determine how the diversion of traffic volumes would reduce the need for previously-identified TMP improvements within the City, promote the completion of other projects such as the Pacheco Boulevard Complete Streets Plan, and address truck movements.
Fehr & Peers will present the results of the analysis in an email consisting of narrative and tables for the City’s review and consideration.
156
Stacy Souza Elms
November 24, 2025
After review by the City, one package of additional roadway segments will be advanced into inclusion into the Traffic Impact Fee and the TMP. It is assumed that up to four roadway segments will be incorporated into the package. Fehr & Peers will prepare an updated Synchro analysis of the General Plan Buildout plus TMP plus Additional Roadways scenario and output a revised LOS table.
Mark Thomas will prepare additional cost estimates for the four roadway segments (each presumed to be less than 3 miles in length). Mark Thomas’s additional scope of work is included as Attachment A.
Schedule and Fee
Fehr & Peers will conduct the work outlined above for an additional fee of $53,914 (inclusive of Mark Thomas's additional fee) to be billed on a time and materials basis. Our fee worksheet is included in Attachment B. We will complete the qualitative review of the six improvement packages within four weeks of defining the packages with the City. Our will be completed in accordance with the terms of our TMP project agreement.
Please contact Ian at (925) 930-7100 with questions or if you need additional information. We look forward to working with you on this project.
Sincerely,

RE: City of Los Banos Transportation Master Plan Update, Additional Services Letter Dear Mr. Barnes:
Per your request, Mark Thomas & Company, Inc. (Mark Thomas) has prepared this additional services letter for the City of Los Banos Transportation Master Plan Update (Project). As discussed previously, the City of Los Banos would like to add four roadway segments to the analysis for the Project. Once these four segments have been identified, Mark Thomas will prepare planning level cost estimates for each of the segments. A detailed scope and budget to perform the additional services is below.
SCOPE OF SERVICES
TASK 1 – PROJECT MANAGEMENT
Task 1.1 – Project Kick-Off/ Work Plan
Mark Thomas will participate in up to 4 virtual coordination meetings with F&P and the City of Los Banos (City) related to the four added roadway segments. It is assumed that F&P will prepare the meeting agendas and notes.
TASK 3 – ASSESSMENT CURRENT/ FUTURE NEEDS
Task 3.2 – Traffic Improvement/ Traffic Impact Fees Update This task will involve the development and cost estimation for up to four roadway segment projects within the City of Los Banos’ transportation planning area. F&P will be responsible for the development of each segment and Mark Thomas will be responsible for the concept-level cost estimation of each segment. A segment is assumed to be a length roadway not longer than 3 miles. If the City desires to study a roadway that is longer than 3 miles, then it can be divided into multiple separate segments that are each up to 3 miles in length.
Mark Thomas will prepare the cost estimates utilizing exhibits and roadway cross sections provided by F&P. The following methodology will be used:
Major Components Within Each Segment
A lump-sum cost will be developed for each major component within the project segments, Attachment A
158
November 12, 2025
including intersections, railroad crossings, and bridges. These costs will be derived from comparable projects within the region that share similar scope and complexity.
Roadway Between Major Components
Construction costs will be calculated on a per-linear-foot basis for each roadway cross section provided by F&P. This unit cost will then be applied to the total length of roadway situated between major components.
For each of the four segments, the total estimated cost will be the sum of all major component costs and the associated roadway costs between these components.
Assumptions:
Each of the roadway segments will not be greater than 3 miles in length. F&P will be responsible for preparing exhibits for estimation. Detailed intersection configuration and geometric development will not be necessary. It is assumed that existing right of way linework can be obtained from GIS.
Deliverables:
Concept level cost estimates for up to four roadway segments projects
FEE ESTIMATE
Attached is a detailed cost breakdown for the additional services.
Thank you for the opportunity to provide this letter to amend the scope of services for the City of Los Banos Transportation Master Plan Update. Please give me a call if you need any additional information or have any questions regarding these additional services.
Sincerely,
MARK THOMAS

EXHIBIT A
Work Approach Plan
The RFP presents a thorough and detailed Scope of Services, which is not repeated verbatim here. Instead, this Work Approach Plan steps through each ofthe tasks in the RFP Scope of Services, elaborates upon how we propose to approach the key elements, and highlights areas where we suggest a work item that differs from, or is in addition to, what is already included in the RFP. Ifwe are selected, we will discuss these ideas with the City and develop a final Scope of Work suitable for inclusion in the contract. The Work Approach Plan reflects upcoming, ongoing, and recently completed transportation studies and investments in the City ofLos Banos and Merced County.
Consistency with these other efforts will produce a Transportation Master Plan (TMP) and associated outcomes and deliverables that will continue to provide value to the City ofLos Banos long after this project is completed.
Task 1: Project Kickoff and Work Plan
This task sets up the structure ofthe project team, the lines of communication within the project team, and sets the expectations for how stakeholders will be engaged. There are two crucial elements in this task: the Public Engagement Plan (including a defined strategy for coordinating with other efforts that are underway in the City and region) and the refinement ofthe scope, schedule and staffing plan. We propose to conduct the project kickoff meeting in-person at the City ofLos Banos, and we would participate in bi-weekly check in calls with City staff over the course ofthe project.

Task 2: Existing Conditions
To provide an understanding ofCity-wide traffic conditions, Fehr & Peers will undertake a data collection effort to supplement data already on-file from the Pioneer Road Complete Streets Project, City ofLos Banos General Plan 2042 and EIR, MCAG Travel Demand Model Update, and other data that the City may have on-file. Incorporating a consistent multimodal transportation data set will limit the new data to be collected, better allow for the reuse ofdata and analytics generated by other projects, and better ensure consistency with recent and ongoing transportation planning and engineering efforts. We will collect mid-week AM and PM 2-hour peak period intersection turning movement counts ofvehicles, heavy vehicles, pedestrians and bicyclists at up to 10 additional locations as part of 175
this task. The final number ofintersections to be included in the Transportation Master Plan will be finalized during the kickoff meeting in Task 1.
The multimodal traffic data collected in this task will also be supplemented with an inventory of completed significant transportation network improvements since the May 2010 Transportation Master Plan. Cost data for these improvements will also be requested, if available, to provide a more in-depth basis for the Traffic Fee Ordinance (TFO) and Transportation Impact Fees (TIP) program to be developed as part ofTask 3.2. "ask # Deliverable
2.1 Inventory of existing traffic count information
2.2 Inventory of completed significant transportation network improvements Task 3: Assessment of Current and Future Needs
The project team will develop a suite of analytical tools that will help develop the vision, goals and objectives for an updated TMP that considers realistic capital investment and revenue projections (per State law) as indicated by City staff. The tools will provide a comprehensive look at future conditions that can be reasonably anticipated and forecast for the City over the next 20 years. The needs assessment will determine, based on population projections in the General Plan and needs and goals from other General Plan Elements, to determine if existing facilities and services can accommodate future demands or if changes to the network or policy expectations would be required.
The quantitative analysis in these tasks will be used to inform Task 3.1 and Task 3.2 and will be augmented by feedback received from public engagement to be conducted under Task 4.
The following subtasks have been grouped together for organizational purposes - transportation planning works best when considering all multimodal factors together to develop a Transportation Master Plan that will achieve the vision, goals, and objectives for multimodal transportation in the City ofLos Banos.
City-Focused MCAG Traffic DemandModel Development, Traffic Operations Analysis & Improvement Measures The Merced County Association of Governments (MCAG) regional travel demand model will be updated by Fehr & Peers in early 2023 to reflect existing and new development data for all agencies in the MCAG region. This updated model, expected to be completed by June 2023, will serve as the basis for future traffic volume and VMT forecasting efforts for MCAG member agencies (including the City ofLos Banos). The updated model will also serve as the basis for future traffic studies, so consistency with the new model will be critical for ensuring that the VMT Policy, TIA Policy, and TIA Guidelines to be developed in Task 3.1 are developed in alignment with the model that will be used for future analysis (i.e., maintaining an "apples-to-apples" basis across policy expectations, thresholds, and project analysis).
We propose to use the updated MCAG model (to be completed in June 2023) as the basis for the Plan. We will perform base year local area land use and roadway network verification (up to 10 hours ofstafftime), and complete a static calibration/validation effort for the City ofLos Banos area to approach alignment with Caltrans District 10 validation targets. The static calibration/validation effort will be completed for up to 50 one-way links in the City (we have budgeted 20 staff hours for static calibration/validation); much ofthe static calibration/validation approach information from the Pioneer Road Complete Streets Plan traffic analysis can be re-used for this effort. This scope 176
assumes the use ofthe locally-validated City-focused MCAG model, which will be used to forecast 20-year horizon traffic volumes using the Caltrans District 10 preferred forecasting process (i.e. Year 2042) for up to 25 study intersections or 100 road segments; we will work with City staffto define the study locations.
Existing and future traffic volume data will be input into a Synchro model ofCity roadways and intersections (up to 25 study intersections or 100 road segments); this model will be an expanded version ofthe Caltrans District 10- approved Synchro models currently being developed by Fehr & Peers as part ofthe traffic analysis for the Pioneer Road Complete Streets Project. It is noted that the Pioneer Road Complete Streets Project Synchro model already includes most major intersections along the Pacheco Boulevard (SR 152/33) and Pioneer Road corridors, and includes the latest signal timing information from Caltrans District 10 (in addition to already being accepted in accordance with District lO's modeling standards).
Existing Conditions and Cumulative Year 2042 Conditions Levels of Service (LOS) will be output from the Synchro model to identify existing and future congestion hotspot areas in the City circulation system. For intersections that fall below the City's LOS standards, we will evaluate whether an exception is warranted or if improvement measures are physically and financially feasible to achieve satisfactory weekday AM or PM peak hour LOS. Cost estimates may already be available for some ofthe projects being included in the Traffic Impact Fee update, but for the purposes ofthis scope we assume that the consultant team will need to review and update previously-prepared cost estimates for some projects and to develop new cost estimates for other projects, including (if desired) multimodal improvements envisioned in the Bicycle and Pedestrian Plan and MCAG Active Transportation Plan (currently being completed by Fehr & Peers).
Fehr & Peers and Mark Thomas have extensive expertise in developing cost estimates for projects involving bicycle or pedestrian infrastructure, traffic signals, intersection, and roadway design improvements (including structures).
The exact level of effort necessary to develop cost estimates will depend on the number ofprojects and the availability ofprior estimates, which is not known at this time. At this stage the team assumes that up to 20 improvements would require new or substantially modified cost estimates; this would tier offof cost estimates already completed or to be completed as part of other projects, such as the Pioneer Road Complete Streets Project.
Multimodal Transportation Planning
Based on information from City staff, information from other tasks in this work plan, and the outcome ofthe public engagement process in Task 4, Fehr & Peers will update the City street classification system and final Circulation Plan. The updates to the City street classification and final Circulation Plan will balance a number offactors, including:
• Reflection ofthe community's priorities for the multimodal transportation system • Reinforcement ofGeneral Plan 2042 land use plan and policies • Future-proofing parking supply considering emerging technologies and electric vehicles • Managing congestion considering identified transportation network improvements from the operations analysis
• Providing for efficient emergency access and response • Accommodating freight/goods movement, including identifying truck routes. • Integrating the MCAG Non-Motorized Transportation Plan (currently being completed by Fehr & Peers) and 2018 Bicycle and Pedestrian Plan
• Reinforce VMT and emissions reductions requirements
• Leveraging the latest in Complete Streets and Safe System principles for the Los Banos context (critical for future grant funding from State and Federal agencies)

Circulation Plan: Draft and Final
Task 3.1: Updated Vehicle-Miles Traveled Policy and Develop a TIA Policy Fehr & Peers was a contributor to the MCAG Regional VMT Thresholds and Implementation Guidelines through our on-call relationship with MCAG, including specific review ofmodeling information for the City ofLos Banos.
We will review the regional guidelines and prepare a VMT Policy statement for inclusion into the City's General Plan. Based on discussions with City staff, the City will implement the MCAG recommendations. The VMT Policy and new VMT metrics from the City-specific MCAG model will be produced for inclusion into a new Transportation Impact Analysis (TIA) Policy and new TIA Guidelines for the City. In addition to VMT analysis, the TIA Guidelines will consider LOS analysis, active transportation review, site design, emergency access, and other required elements under CEQA Guidelines Appendix G. Based on discussion with City staff, the TIA Guidelines will take the form of a 1-2 page document outlining required study elements, required generalized VMT and LOS calculation methodologies, and thresholds ofsignificance for VMT. A list of potentially applicable TDM measures from the 2021 Handbookfor Analyzing Greenhouse Gas Emission Reductions, Assessing Climate Vulnerabilities, andAdvancing Health and Equity, which has superseded the 2010 CAPCOA Handbook, will be included.
Infrastructure-related VMT mitigation measures subject to the Mitigation Fee Act may be included in the updated Traffic Fee Ordinance and Traffic Impact Fee program to be developed as part ofTask 3.2. [asl. # Dcli\Crahlc
3.1.1 VMT and TIA policy statements
3.1.2 Transportation Impact Analysis Guidelines
Task 3.2: Traffic Improvements and Traffic Impact Fees Update Fehr & Peers will review the City's current Transportation Impact Fee (TIF) program and Traffic Fee Ordinance (TFO) and assess which improvements are still remaining to be completed (based on the inventory information to be collected as part of Task 2). A critical step in the TIF update is to determine which improvements, if any, are 178
currently in the fee program and are still required per the traffic operations analysis to be conducted in Task 3.
Funding for projects no longer needed per the new analysis may be reallocated to other, high-benefit projects to be included in the updated TIF/TFO.
We will work with the City to determine how the proposed VMT policy may be reflected in the updated TIF program. To be consistent with the Mitigation Fee Act, the TIF can generally only be used to fund capital improvement projects; the TIF would generally not be suitable for funding ongoing operations of programs designed to change travel behavior, although recent projects such as the Los Angeles VMT impact fee program (completed by Fehr & Peers) has begun to change what projects may qualifY for a TIF. To the extent that the VMT policy indicates the need for specific capital improvement projects in order to support the City's VMT reduction goals, those capital projects could be incorporated into the TIF program.
We presume that the City would like to continue using the nexus approach used in the most recent TIF study, which was completed in December 2019. In that approach, the cost for each ofthe capital improvements in the TIF is divided according to the percentages of existing and future development in the City, and the portion associated with future development is what is included in the fee calculations. There are other methods for making a nexus calculation that could be applicable, depending on the types of capital improvements included in the TIF program, and we can discuss those with the City ifinterested. For example, while the TIF is currently based on project size, the TIF could be modified to a different fee basis, such as trips generated or VMT, which could be more consistent with the TIA guidelines to be developed as part ofTask 3.1 (subject to the provisions of AB 602 which went into effect on July 1,2022).
Using the growth projections from the model and trip generation rates typically applied in transportation impact analyses prepared for the City, we will calculate the percentages of existing and future trips in the City, and use those percentages to determine the amount ofeach project's costs (developed along with project descriptions as part ofTask 3) that will be included in the fee calculations for new development. Fees for each land use category will be calculated based on trip generation rates and potentially also on trip length, so as to capture the VMT effects of each land use category. The result will be a draft fee schedule that will be reviewed with the City staff.
Fehr & Peers will document the results ofthe analysis described above in a nexus report which will be submitted to the City for review and finalization. As part ofthe adoption ofthe new TIF (presumed to be completed as part of Task 6), Fehr & Peers will draft a Traffic Fee Ordinance for formal adoption ofthe new TIF.
Task # IDclh crable
3.2.1 Traffic Impact Fee Nexus Study: Draft and Final
3.2.2 Traffic Fee Ordinance and Fee Schedule: Draft and Final Task 4: Public Engagement
Early and ongoing involvement in planning is crucial for generating community buy-in. As noted in Task 1, Fehr & Peers will develop a Public Engagement Plan that is appropriate to the scope and context ofthe project. The Public Engagement Plan will clearly outline the community engagement goals, timelines, and approach, and identifY activities appropriate to each phase ofthe project. The Public Engagement Plan will also identifY key stakeholders, both internal and external, as well as community partners whose input will be necessary to the success ofthe project. 179
Community engagement efforts are intended to facilitate a comfortable, inclusive, and interactive environment for residents to provide feedback. This can be achieved through workshops, open houses, pop-up activities at local events or with local partners, or through strategic stakeholder and council study sessions. While specific activities will be identified in coordination with the City, we anticipate two key phases for feedback:
• Community Visioning: introducing the project and starting a shared dialogue around transportation issues and values for the community. Discussion offiscal opportunities and constraints will also occur with staff and decision makers during this phase to set up a TMP that is fundable and implementable. • Prioritization: introducing design concepts and ground-trothing existing conditions analysis against the experience ofresidents.
The team will also utilize our in-house visual communications team to develop clear branding and supportive materials for the project, which will provide recognition and continuity for all deliverables within the effort.
Outreach notification materials, ifdesired, can be developed in both English and Spanish. Outreach exercises may be coordinated with the MCAG Non-Motorized Plan work currently being completed by Fehr & Peers.
Tasl, # Deliverable
4.1 Two community outreach events (format TBD)
4.2 One Council/Commission Study Session
Task 5: Documentation and Plan Implementation
Fehr & Peers will integrate deliverables from all previous tasks into an Administrative Draft Transportation Master Plan (TMP) to be reviewed by the Project Team including City Staff. The TMP will identify, evaluate and prioritize strategies; the TMP will also include implementation actions and performance tracking metrics for the City to track over time. Implementation will be based on an action plan for the near-term (0-5 years), medium term (5-10 years), and long-term (10-20 years), considering the goals and objectives for all modes. Future grant funding considerations will also be incorporated into the implementation strategy to promote the implementation ofTMP improvements.
The Administrative Draft TMP will reflect a consistent visual style and lean on photos and graphics to be easy to follow and accessible to the public. We have found this approach to be successful in our work for similar agencies throughout the State. Fehr & Peers will incorporate comments and revise the Administrative Draft to create a Public Review Draft, which we will post on the City's website for the public to provide comments. We will incorporate feedback into development ofthe Final Plan. To advance the work, we propose the following outline, which will address all modes:
1. Existing Conditions
2. Vision, Goals and Objectives
3. Master Street Plan
a. Street Classifications
b. Major IntersectionslFuture Intersections Improvements c. Future StreetslFuture Street Improvements
