To provide community members, Town Council Members, and staff ample opportunity for participation in the election process and involvement in election night activities, it is recommended to cancel the November 5, 2024 Town Council Meeting. This would be a one-time occurrence due to the election date.

TOWN OF LOS GATOS
COUNCIL AGENDA REPORT
MEETING DATE: 09/03/2024
ITEM NO: 6
DATE: August 26, 2024
TO: Mayor and Town Council
FROM: Laurel Prevetti, Town Manager
SUBJECT: Adopt a Resolution Rescinding Resolution 2022-057 and Amending the Appendices to the Town Conflict of Interest Code Section 2.30.610 RECOMMENDATION:
Adopt a resolution rescinding Resolution 2022-057 and amending the appendices to the Town Conflict of Interest Code, Section 2.30.610.
BACKGROUND:
The Political Reform Act requires local agencies to adopt and maintain a Conflict of Interest Code. The Town of Los Gatos adopted the Conflict of Interest Code as part of the Town Code in Chapter 2, Article III, Division 4. Revisions to the Conflict of Interest Code may be made by resolution, pursuant to Ordinance 2139, adopted by the Town Council on February 8, 2005. On December 19, 2017, the Council amended the Conflict of Interest Code with the adoption of Ordinance 2267, which mandates all Conflict of Interest filers must file the From 700 electronically via NetFile, the Town’s e-filing system, beginning February 1, 2019.
The Political Reform Act further requires that in even-numbered years, before October 1, local agencies must conduct a biennial review and update of their Conflict of Interest Code to determine if it is still accurate and address any new positions that must be listed in the local code.
The Town last updated its Conflict of Interest Code on September 6, 2022 to add new positions and change the name of the Finance Commission from the Council Finance Committee to the Finance Commission. At that time, the General Plan Advisory Committee was also removed, as the Committee had completed its work.
ITEM NO. 6.
PAGE 2 OF 3
SUBJECT: Amending the Conflict of Interest Appendices
DATE: August 26, 2024
BACKGROUND (continued):
Additionally, the disclosure categories (Attachment 1, Exhibit B ) were consolidated into three categories. Category one (1) requires reporting of all investment and business positions in business entities, sources of income (including receipt of gifts, loans, and travel payments) from sources located in or doing business in the Town of Los Gatos and interests in real property located in the Town of Los Gatos or within two miles of the Town of Los Gatos or property owned by the Town of Los Gatos. Category two (2) requires reporting of investments and positions in business entities and all sources of income (including receipt of gifts, loans, and travel payments) from sources located in or doing business in the Town of Los Gatos. Category three (3) requires reporting of interests in real property located in the Town of Los Gatos or within two miles of the Town of Los Gatos or property owned by the Town of Los Gatos.
DISCUSSION:
After reviewing the current code and designated positions, the Town Attorney and Town Clerk determined that the roles of the Administrative Analyst and Permit Technician do not involve responsibilities that necessitate filing under the code. As a result, the two positions are proposed to be removed from the list of required filers. In addition, it has been determined that certain positions require amendments to their disclosure categories to accurately align with their roles and responsibilities. Staff has identified the following positions for a change to the respective disclosure category: Events and Marketing Specialist, Senior Building Inspector, Building Inspector, Urban Forest Manager, Conceptual Development Advisory Commission, Development and Review Committee, General Plan Committee, and Historic Preservation Committee.
On February 20, 2024 the Town Council disbanded the Building Board of Appeals, which requires them to be removed from the list. Additionally, it has been determined that the Personnel Board does not involve responsibilities that necessitate filing under the code, and they are also being recommended for removal. Staff reviewed the duties of the recently added Diversity, Equity, and Inclusion Commission and determined the Commission needs to be added to the list of filers.
Those on the designated positions list are required to file the Fair Political Practices Commission (FPPC) Form 700 Statement of Economic Interests annually by April 1 with the Town Clerk.
Attachment 1 is a comprehensive overview of all the changes for this reporting period consistent with the Political Reform Act reporting requirements.
COORDINATION:
The preparation of this report was done in coordination with the Town Attorney’s Office.

RECOMMENDATION:
Appoint Vice Mayor Matthew Hudes as the Town’s Voting Delegate for the League of California Cities Annual Conference scheduled for October 16-18 in Long Beach.
REMARKS:
Each year the League of California Cities conducts an annual conference to discuss key legislative, social, fiscal, and service issues affecting California municipalities. One important aspect of the conference is its annual business meeting at which the League membership takes action on conference resolutions. Annual conference resolutions guide cities and the League in efforts to improve the quality, responsiveness, and vitality of local government in California.
To expedite the annual business meeting, participating cities/towns have been asked to designate a primary voting delegate and optionally, an alternate voting delegate should the voting delegate be unable to attend or carry out voting duties. The voting delegate is typically the Town’s appointed Representative or the appointed Alternate. As the current appointed Alternate Representative to the League, Vice Mayor Matthew Hudes will be attending the conference and has agreed to serve as the Town’s voting delegate.
Attached is the 2024 League of California Cities Conference Resolutions Packet (Attachment 1).
It has been the Town’s past practice to have the appointed voting delegate determine the Town’s position based on resolution discussion and feedback at the League Annual Business Meeting.

ITEM NO. 7.
Sixty days before the
Annual Conference
and Expo, Cal Cities
members may submit
policy proposals on
issues of importance
to cities. The resolution must
have the concurrence of at least
five additional member cities or
individual members.
How it works: Cal Cities
Resolutions and the General Assembly
General Assembly
General Resolutions Policy Committees
Developing League of California Cities policy is a dynamic process that engages a wide range of members to ensure Cal Cities represents cities with one voice. These policies directly guide Cal Cities’ advocacy to promote local decision-making, and lobby against statewide policies that erode local control.
The resolutions process and General Assembly is one way that city officials can directly participate in the development of Cal Cities policy. If a resolution is approved at the General Assembly, it becomes official Cal Cities policy. Here’s how resolutions and the General Assembly work.
The petitioned
resolution is an
alternate method
to introduce policy
proposals during
the annual conference. The
petition must be signed by
voting delegates from 10% of
member cities, and submitted to
the Cal Cities President at least
24 hours before the beginning
of the General Assembly.
Petitioned Resolutions
The Cal Cities
President assigns
general resolutions
to policy committees
where members
review, debate, and recommend
positions for each policy proposal.
Recommendations are forwarded
to the Resolutions Committee.
Who’s who
The Resolutions Committee
includes representatives
from each Cal Cities
diversity caucus, regional
division, municipal
department, and policy
committee, as well as
individuals appointed by
the Cal Cities president.
Voting delegates
are appointed by each
member city; every city
has one voting delegate.
The General Assembly is a
meeting of the collective
body of all voting
delegates —one from
every member city.
Seven policy committees
meet throughout the year
to review and recommend
positions to take on bills
and regulatory proposals.
Policy committees include
members from each Cal
Cities diversity caucus,
regional division, and
municipal department,
as well as individuals
appointed by the Cal
Cities president.
During the General Assembly, voting delegates
debate and consider general and petitioned
resolutions forwarded by the Resolutions
Committee. Potential Cal Cities bylaws
amendments are also considered at this meeting.
Cal Cities policy
development is a memberinformed process,
grounded in the voices and
experiences of city officials
throughout the state.

The Resolutions
Committee considers
all resolutions. General
Resolutions approved1 by
either a policy committee
or the Resolutions Committee are next

WHEREAS, the General Assembly of the League of California Cities objects to the practice of the California Legislature of imposing rules limiting authority or regulating the conduct of local municipal officials that do not also apply to elected officials of the State of California; and WHEREAS, examples of such rules or regulations that apply to local city elected officials that do not otherwise apply to the elected officials of the State of California include, but are not limited to:
California’s open meeting rules, codified in the Ralph M.

League of California Cities Staff Analysis on Resolution No. 1 Staff: Johnnie Pina, Legislative Affairs, Lobbyist
Committee: Governance, Transparency, and Labor Relations Summary:
This Resolution states that the League of California Cities shall call upon the Governor of the State of California and the elected members of the California Legislature, including all members of the Senate and Assembly to adopt the following policy:
“The California State Legislature shall not enact, and the Governor shall not sign into law, any law or regulation that applies solely to elected officials of California cities and counties, unless such law or regulation also applies equally to members of the California State Assembly and Senate. This prohibition shall not apply to laws or regulations affecting the inherent powers of the legislative branch under the California Constitution.”
Background:
This resolution states that examples of the California Legislature imposing rules limiting authority or regulating the conduct of local municipal officials that do not also apply to elected officials of the State of California include, but are not limited to:
• California’s open meeting rules, codified in the Ralph M. Brown Act, Government Code, Chapter 9, §§ 54950 et seq.;
• “One-off” exemptions, in the form of Senate Bill No. 174, from the California Environmental Quality Act (“CEQA”);
• Rules, in the form of Senate Bill No. 1439, amending the Political Reform Act (the “Act”); and
• Rules, in the form of Assembly Bill No. 571, that apply to city and county candidates for local elected office, but not to candidates for state-wide office.
Ralph M. Brown Act
The California Attorney General’s (AG) Office defines The Ralph M. Brown Act (Brown Act) as what governs meetings conducted by local legislative bodies, such as boards of supervisors, city councils and school boards. The AG’s office states the Act represents the Legislature’s determination of how the balance should be struck between public access to meetings of multi-member public bodies on the one hand and the need for confidential candor, debate, and information gathering on the other.
The Ralph M. Brown Act governs local agencies, the Bagley-Keene Open Meeting Act covers all state boards and commissions, and Government code 17
ITEM NO. 7.
9027 governs the state Legislature. The California Constitution also mandates open meetings for state agencies, boards, and commissions. Specifically, the Constitution requires that each local agency comply with the Brown Act (Article I, section 3(b)(7)): and that the proceedings of each house of the Legislature be open and public (with exceptions for employment matters; matters affecting security; confer with legal counsel; and to meet as a caucus (Article IV, section 7).
Although fairly detailed requirements apply to state agencies and other state bodies, they do not apply to the Legislature. The Legislature has Constitutional authority to adopt rules for its proceedings that are consistent with the requirement that the proceedings of each house and the committees be open and public.
Another notable difference between the Legislature and a city council is the ability for Legislators to have a caucus to discuss a bill, express how they will vote, and to count votes. This is not allowed under the Brown Act. One other difference is that the laws governing teleconferencing for members of the state Legislature is far less flexible than it is for local bodies. However, state agencies have more flexibility than locals in that regard.
California Environmental Quality Act (“CEQA”)
The Resolution cites the Legislature's action in exempting from CEQA the reconstruction of the State Capitol Annex building. The State Legislature enacted the California Environmental Quality Act (CEQA) in 1970, establishing it as a public disclosure law for the environmental review of discretionary projects and a process for mitigating or avoiding potential environmental impacts.
SB 174 (Committee on Budget and Fiscal Review) Chaptered by Secretary of State. Chapter 74, Statutes of 2024 was signed into law July 2, 2024. This bill exempts the work performed under the State Capitol Building Annex Act of 2016 from the California Environmental Quality Act (CEQA). In this example the Legislature exempted themselves as not being considered a “public agency,” “state agency,” or “lead agency” under CEQA. A lead agency under CEQA is the public agency that has the principal responsibility for carrying out or approving a project that is subject to CEQA.
Over the years, the Legislature has also created many CEQA exceptions and exemptions for local projects involving local agencies as well.
The Political Reform Act (PRA) - Senate Bill No. 1439
SB 1439 (Glazer) Chaptered by Secretary of State. Chapter 848, Statutes of 2022 amends section 84308 and is aimed at preventing "pay-to-play" practices, in part by prohibiting parties, participants, and their respective agents in a 18
ITEM NO. 7.
proceeding involving a license, permit, or other entitlement for use from contributing more than $250 to an officer of an agency during a 12 month period. When the Levine Act was first enacted in 1982, Section 84308 applied to appointed members of boards and commissions who were running for elective office. SB 1439 expended this law to now apply to local elected officials. Since it is focused on permits and licenses, it now applies to State agencies and local agencies that approve permits and licenses. Section 84308 does not apply to the Legislature or the Courts. It is important to note that unlike local governments, neither issue permits and licenses.
The Political Reform Act (PRA) - Assembly Bill No. 571
AB 571 (Mullin) Chaptered by Secretary of State. Chapter 556, Statutes of 2019 established default campaign contribution limits for county and city office at the same level as the limit on contributions from individuals to candidates for Senate and Assembly, effective January 1, 2021. This bill permitted a county or city to establish its own contribution limits, which would prevail over these default limits.
The Resolution cites AB 571 as an example of treating cities differently than the State. The Fair Political Practices Commission clarifies in their AB 571 fact sheet that under AB 571 a city may elect to have "no" contribution limit in which case the state contribution limit will not apply as a default for that jurisdiction. A city or county can set contribution limits higher than the default state limit, AB 571 sets a default in line with contributions Assembly Members and Senators if a city or county is silent on contribution limits.
Fiscal Impact:

Existing Cal Cities Policy:
Mission Statement
To expand and protect local control for cities through education and advocacy to enhance the quality of life for all Californians.
We Believe:
• Local self-governance is the cornerstone of democracy. • In the involvement of all stakeholders in establishing goals and in solving problems.
• In conducting the business of government with transparency, openness, respect, and civility. The spirit of honest public service is what builds communities.
• Open decision-making that is of the highest ethical standards honors the public trust.
• The vitality of cities is dependent upon their fiscal stability and local autonomy. The active participation of all city officials increases Cal Cities’ effectiveness.
19
ITEM NO. 7.
• Partnerships and collaborations are essential elements of focused advocacy and lobbying.
• Ethical and well-informed city officials are essential for responsive, visionary leadership and effective and efficient city operations.
Comments:
Additional Examples
The Legislature has passed and the Governor has signed many laws that apply to local governments and do not apply to the state or the state Legislature. This year AB 2561(McKinnor) was introduced, which requires local governments to present in a public meeting a detailed report about their vacancy rates and detailed information about their hiring practices. This is an attempt to address public sector vacancy rates. This bill does not apply to the state in a time when they are also dealing with high vacancy rates.
Additionally, there were several bills that aim to amend the Levine Act, which now applies to local elected officials, to make changes to SB 1439, referenced previously in the analysis. None of the bills would amend the law to be applicable to Assembly Members or Senators.
AB 817 (Pacheco), co-sponsored by Cal Cities tried to bring parity to the Brown Act by making the teleconference rules for state advisory bodies the same for local advisory bodies but the Legislature struck the bill down.
Applying to elected officials or to the legislative body? Legislature or the State? The resolution also states, “… applies solely to elected officials of California cities and counties, unless such law or regulation also applies equally to members of the California State Assembly and Senate.”
This portion of the resolve clause is specifically speaking to local elected officials and State Assembly Members and Senators. However, many of the “where as” clauses are in reference to laws that apply to cities, the state and the Legislature as government agencies and not specifically to the elected officials on the governing bodies. For example, the Brown Act applies rules to the Legislative body and not the individual council member. Additionally, the city council as a whole is the lead agency under CEQA and not the individual council members.
Inherent Powers of the Legislative Branch
The resolution also states, “This prohibition shall not apply to laws or regulations affecting the inherent powers of the legislative branch under the California Constitution.”
It is unclear what inherent powers of the legislate branch under the California Constitution means in this context. The legislative branch does have the power 20
ITEM NO. 7.
of preemption over cities and can state that a change in law is a matter of state wide concern. This allows the legislative branch to apply new laws or amend existing laws to apply to general law and charter cities. It seems like the last sentence of the resolve clause could negate the rest of the resolve clause if not clarified.

TOWN OF LOS GATOS
COUNCIL AGENDA REPORT
MEETING DATE: 09/03/2024
ITEM NO: 8
DATE: August 26, 2014
TO: Mayor and Town Council
FROM: Laurel Prevetti, Town Manager
SUBJECT: Authorize the Town Manager to Negotiate and Execute an Agreement with the County of Santa Clara to Provide Unhoused Engagement Services in an Amount Not to Exceed $92,777 of Grant Funds and Authorize an Expenditure and Revenue Budget Adjustment in the Amount of $92,777 to Receive and Use County Grant Funding ($42,777 FY 2023/24 Carryforward Grant and $50,000 FY 2024/25 Grant)
RECOMMENDATION:
Authorize the Town Manager to negotiate and execute an Agreement with the County of Santa Clara to provide unhoused engagement services in an amount not to exceed $92,777 of grant funds and authorize an Expenditure and Revenue Budget Adjustment in the amount of $92,777 to receive and use County grant funding ($42,777 FY 2023/24 Carryforward Grant and $50,000 FY 2024/25 Grant).
BACKGROUND:
In December 2023, due to the collaboration and efforts of Supervisor Simitian’s Office, the Town received a $50,000 grant from the County of Santa Clara (County) to provide support for the unhoused in Los Gatos. While initial discussions regarding the grant indicated the funds would be used for case management for the unhoused, the County confirmed the funds can be used for any support services for residents experiencing homelessness. The Town Council subsequently authorized up to $20,000 of these funds to be used for the Hotel Program. $7,223 was used for the Hotel Program and $42,777 remains available for use towards case management and engagement services for the Los Gatos unhoused community. The grant funds must be expended by the Town by June 30, 2025 and are one-time funds.
ITEM NO. 8.
PAGE 2 OF 3
SUBJECT: County Services for Unhoused Engagement
DATE: August 26, 2024
BACKGROUND (continued):
On June 13, 2024, through collaboration from Supervisor Simitian’s Office, the County Board of Supervisors approved another $50,000 grant for the Town to use towards support for unhoused Los Gatos residents.
The County grants have come in support of the Town’s demonstrated investment to support our unhoused community. In Fiscal Year (FY) 2023/24, the Town Council allocated $50,000 to unhoused initiatives, including a Hotel Program to provide shelter in inclement weather. The Town Council continued its support for the unhoused with a budget allocation of $60,000 in FY 2024/25. These funds will be used for a variety of unhoused support, including the Hotel Program, shower program, food pantry, and other efforts.
DISCUSSION:
Town staff have been working closely with the County’s Office of Supportive Housing (OSH) to ensure that any unhoused case management and engagement services would work in tandem with the existing support provided to the unhoused throughout the community. OSH has clarified that these services are referred to collectively as engagement services and involve proactive outreach and support to help the unhoused access services and housing. It has been determined that the best path forward would be to contract unhoused engagement services through OSH to leverage their existing contracts, ensure cohesive implementation, and expand on services already provided through OSH.
Currently, OSH provides outreach teams to provide unhoused engagement services such as identifying, assessing, and referring unhoused individuals to appropriate housing programs and services. These teams assess individual housing needs and address a person’s mental health, substance use disorder, and/or medical needs by building trust between the individual and the service teams and identifying opportunities through which other services and housing can be provided. The goal is to build some level of rapport with the individuals over a period of time, help the individuals seek services that, at a minimum, would address their basic needs.
These teams currently serve Los Gatos on a limited basis for a few hours a month, when available, as they are responsible for meeting the needs throughout the County. The recommended dedicated funding through an agreement with the County would ensure a consistent presence in the Town, enabling outreach teams to build rapport with unhoused individuals. This dedicated funding would also allow for coordination between the Town and County staff to identify individuals and geographic areas for deployment, so the outreach is responsive to the Town’s needs. It is anticipated that there would be weekly outreach to Los Gatos under this arrangement in the initial phases and the frequency would be adjusted to best suit the needs of the Town and budget allocated for this effort. The Town would work directly with County staff to monitor the progress and resources deployed under this contract, with a reporting mechanism that would include the number of unhoused served in the Town, the
ITEM NO. 8.
PAGE 3 OF 3
SUBJECT: County Services for Unhoused Engagement
DATE: August 26, 2024
DISCUSSION (continued):
number assessed for housing, and the number of individuals housed. While the number of individuals housed depends on many factors and may not be a direct reflection of the value of the effort, it is worth tracking as any progress in this direction would be a success.
If the Town Council moves forward, it is anticipated that an agreement with the County can be finalized in the next couple of months with implementation shortly thereafter.
To launch the services, OSH would coordinate a resource fair at no additional cost to the Town to provide resources for the Los Gatos unhoused community. OSH has also offered information and assistance to Town staff in preparing a submission of a multi-year grant application to Destination: Home that could be leveraged to increase services in Los Gatos in coordination with other West Valley communities.
CONCLUSION:
Staff recommends that the Town Council authorize the Town Manager to negotiate and execute an agreement with the County for unhoused engagement services for an amount not to exceed $92,777. This would require revenue and expenditure budget adjustments in the amount of $92,777 to recognize the County grant revenue to be used for this purpose.
COORDINATION:
The preparation of this report was coordinated between the Town Manager’s Office, the Town Attorney, the Finance Department, and the County’s Office of Supportive Housing.
FISCAL IMPACT:
Sufficient grant funding from the County has been awarded to the Town to cover the costs of this agreement, with $42,777 from a carryforward FY 2023/24 grant and $50,000 from a FY 2024/25 grant. To recognize those funds in the current fiscal year, revenue and expenditure budget adjustments in the amount of $92,777 are required.
ENVIRONMENTAL ASSESSMENT:
This is not a project defined under CEQA, and no further action is required.

A TREE PROTECTION NOTES SITE PREPARATION: ALL EXISTING TREES SHALL BE FENCED WITHIN OR AT THE DRIP LINE (FOLIAR SPREAD) OF THE TREE. DEPENDING ON THE LOCATION OF THE TREE THE FENCING MAY NOT BE ABLE TO BE AT THE DRIPLINE. EXAMPLES OF THIS WOULD BE PUBLIC RIGHT OF WAY, NEAR PROPERTY LINES OR AROUND EXISTING STRUCTURES TO REMAIN. WHERE COMPLETE DRIP LINE FENCING IS NOT POSSIBLE, THE ADDITION OF STRAW WADDLES AND ORANGE SNOW FENCING WRAPPING THE TRUNK SHALL BE INSTALLED PER THE TREE PROTECTION DETAIL. THE FENCE SHOULD BE A MINIMUM OF SIX FEET HIGH, MADE OF GALVANIZED 11-GAUGE WIRE MESH WITH GALVANIZED POSTS OR ANY MATERIAL SUPERIOR IN QUALITY. A TREE PROTECTION ZONE (TPZ) SIGN SHALL BE AFFIXED TO FENCING AT APPROPRIATE INTERVALS AS DETERMINED BY THE ARBORIST ON SITE. SEE TREE PROTECTION DETAIL FOR ADDITIONAL INFORMATION, INCLUDING TREE PROTECTION ZONE SIGN. IF THE FENCE IS WITHIN THE DRIP LINE OF THE TREES, THE FOLIAR FRINGE SHALL BE RAISED TO OFFSET THE CHANCE OF LIMB DAMAGE FROM ACTIVE CONSTRUCTION. ACTIVE CONSTRUCTION: ALL CONTRACTORS, SUBCONTRACTORS AND OTHER PERSONNEL SHALL BE WARNED THAT ENCROACHMENT WITHIN THE FENCED AREA AND DRIPLINE IS PROHIBITED WITHOUT THE CONSENT OF THE CERTIFIED ARBORIST ON THE JOB. THIS INCLUDES, BUT IS NOT LIMITED TO, STORAGE OF LUMBER AND OTHER MATERIALS, DISPOSAL OF PAINTS, SOLVENTS OR OTHER NOXIOUS MATERIALS, PARKED CARS, GRADING EQUIPMENT OR OTHER HEAVY EQUIPMENT. IF CONSTRUCTION ACTIVITY NEEDS TO HAPPEN IN THE TPZ THE FENCE CAN BE MOVED TEMPORARILY FOR DELIVERY OF CONSTRUCTION MATERIALS. THE CONTRACTOR SHOULD MAKE ACCOMMODATIONS TO OFF LOAD ITEMS SUCH AS TRUSSES, TIMBER, PLASTERBOARD, WALLBOARD, CONCRETE, GYPSUM BOARD, FLOORING, ROOFING OR ANY OTHER HEAVY CONSTRUCTION MATERIAL OUTSIDE THE FOLIAR SPREAD OF THE TREE SO THERE IS NO HEAVY EQUIPMENT NEEDED THAT COULD CAUSE DAMAGE TO THE CANOPY OF THE TREE OR COMPACT THE ROOT ZONE. THE TREE PROTECTION FENCING SHOULD BE REESTABLISHED PER THE PLANS AND DETAILS IMMEDIATELY AFTER ANY ACTIVITY THROUGH THE TPZ. PENALTIES, BASED ON THE COST OF REMEDIAL REPAIRS AND THE EVALUATION GUIDE PUBLISHED BY THE INTERNATIONAL SOCIETY OF ARBORICULTURE, SHALL BE ASSESSED FOR DAMAGES TO THE TREES. GRADING/EXCAVATING: ALL GRADING PLANS THAT SPECIFY GRADING WITHIN THE DRIP LINE OF ANY TREE, OR WITHIN THE DISTANCE FROM THE TRUNK AS OUTLINED IN THE SITE PREPARATION SECTION ABOVE WHEN SAID DISTANCE IS OUTSIDE THE DRIP LINE, SHALL FIRST BE REVIEWED BY A CERTIFIED ARBORIST. PROVISIONS FOR AERATION, DRAINAGE, PRUNING, TUNNELING BENEATH ROOTS, ROOT PRUNING OR OTHER NECESSARY ACTIONS TO PROTECT THE TREES SHALL BE OUTLINED BY AN ARBORIST. IF TRENCHING IS NECESSARY WITHIN THE AREA AS DESCRIBED ABOVE, SAID TRENCHING SHALL BE UNDERTAKEN BY HAND LABOR AND DUG DIRECTLY BENEATH THE TRUNK OF THE TREE. ALL ROOTS 2 INCHES OR LARGER SHALL BE TUNNELED UNDER AND OTHER ROOTS SHALL BE CUT SMOOTHLY TO THE TRUNK SIDE OF THE TRENCH. THE TRUNK SIDE SHOULD BE DRAPED IMMEDIATELY WITH TWO LAYERS OF UNTREATED BURLAP TO A DEPTH OF 3 FEET FROM THE SURFACE. THE BURLAP SHALL BE SOAKED NIGHTLY AND LEFT IN PLACE UNTIL THE TRENCH IS BACK FILLED TO THE ORIGINAL LEVEL. AN ARBORIST SHALL EXAMINE THE TRENCH PRIOR TO BACK FILLING TO ASCERTAIN THE NUMBER AND SIZE OF ROOTS CUT, SO AS TO SUGGEST THE NECESSARY REMEDIAL REPAIRS. REMEDIAL REPAIRS: AN ARBORIST SHALL HAVE THE RESPONSIBILITY OF OBSERVING ALL ONGOING ACTIVITIES THAT MAY AFFECT THE TREES AND PRESCRIBING NECESSARY REMEDIAL WORK TO ENSURE THE HEALTH AND STABILITY OF THE TREES. THIS INCLUDES, BUT IS NOT LIMITED TO, ALL ARBORIST ACTIVITIES BROUGHT OUT IN THE PREVIOUS SECTIONS. IN ADDITION, PRUNING, AS OUTLINED IN INTERNATIONAL SOCIETY OF ARBORICULTURE BEST MANAGEMENT PRACTICES: PRUNING AND ANSI A300 PART 1 STANDARD PRACTICES: PRUNING, SHALL BE PRESCRIBED AS NECESSARY. FERTILIZING, AERATION, IRRIGATION, PEST CONTROL AND OTHER ACTIVITIES SHALL BE PRESCRIBED ACCORDING TO THE TREE NEEDS, LOCAL SITE REQUIREMENTS, AND STATE AGRICULTURAL PEST CONTROL LAWS. ALL SPECIFICATIONS SHALL BE IN WRITING. FOR PEST CONTROL OPERATIONS, CONSULT THE LOCAL COUNTY AGRICULTURAL COMMISSIONER'S OFFICE FOR INDIVIDUALS LICENSED AS PEST CONTROL ADVISORS OR PEST CONTROL OPERATORS. FINAL INSPECTION: UPON COMPLETION OF THE PROJECT, THE ARBORIST SHALL REVIEW ALL WORK UNDERTAKEN THAT MAY IMPACT THE EXISTING TREES. SPECIAL ATTENTION SHALL BE GIVEN TO CUTS AND FILLS, COMPACTING, DRAINAGE, PRUNING AND FUTURE REMEDIAL WORK. AN ARBORIST SHOULD SUBMIT A FINAL REPORT IN WRITING OUTLINING THE ONGOING REMEDIAL CARE FOLLOWING THE FINAL INSPECTION.
