SUBJECT:
Public Hearing Regarding Annexation No. 17 (Tract 25-S-01 /TSM 2024-05 Tozer III Subdivision) into Community Facilities District No. 2005-1 (Public Services) Under the Mello Roos Community Facilities Act of 1982 and Related Actions
RECOMMENDATION:
That Council consider the following:
1. Hold the Public Hearing.
2. Adopt a Resolution of the City Council (Council) of the City of Madera, California, Authorizing Annexation of Territory (Annexation No. 17) to Community Facilities District No. 2005-1 (Public Services); Authorizing the Levy of a Special Tax; and Submitting the Levy of Tax to the Qualified Electors.

SUMMARY:
At the regular meeting of the City Council held on October 15, 2025, the Council approved Resolution No. 25-196, declaring the City’s intention to annex the proposed territory (as depicted on the boundary map attached thereto) into Community Facilities District No. 2005-1 (Public Services) (“CFD 2005-1”). At the regularly scheduled meeting on November 19, 2025, after the closure of the public hearing, the Council has two resolutions to consider. The first resolution sets forth the Council’s approval to annex territory to CFD 2005-1 and to levy a special tax. The first resolution identifies the need for the annexation election and refers to the annexation map showing the parcels to be annexed. The second resolution is for adoption by the Council after the results of the election are announced by the City Clerk. The second A-2
Return to Agenda
resolution also directs the filing of the Notice of Special Tax Lien against the annexed property to provide authority for City to collect the special tax.
The conditions of approval for the development project known as Subdivision No. 25-S-01 (TSM 2024-05) (the “Project”) require annexation into CFD 2005-1, which was established as an annexable district to provide funding to offset the increased cost for public safety, open space and parks maintenance created by new development.
DISCUSSION:
On November 16, 2005, by Resolution No. 05-334, the City Council established CFD 2005-1, a Mello Roos Community Facilities District with the intention that future development within the City would annex into this district. The special taxes collected from the property owners within the district are used for the funding of police and fire protection services, storm drain infrastructure maintenance and operations, and park maintenance. Property owner assessments are paid as a component of the property tax collection process. As was originally envisioned with the establishment of the CFD, future residential projects not included in the initial formation process are required to go through an annexation process in order to be included in CFD 2005-1. Projects may be annexed one at a time, or in a group if they are ready at the same time.
Joseph Crown Construction and Development Inc. is the property owner/subdivider of the Tozer III Subdivision (Tract 25-S-01 /TSM 2024-05) makes up Annexation No. 17. and is prepared to proceed with the annexation process into CFD 2005-1. The Project includes the development of approximately 168 single family residential units, a ±1.2 acre neighborhood park, and a ±4.3 acre master plan basin. The boundaries of the Project consist of the area within original Assessor’s Parcel Number’s (APN’s) 011-370- 005 as depicted on Attachment 4.

As with all residential subdivisions, conditions of approval for the subdivision require annexation into CFD 2005-1 prior to recordation of the final subdivision map. The City Council took the first action in the annexation process on October 15, 2025, approving the resolution declaring the City’s intention to annex the proposed territory into CFD 2005-1, and establishing this meeting date as the public hearing date for consideration of the annexation of the property into CFD 2005-1. The attached Resolution represents the action the City Council needs to approve to annex the property into the district. See Attachment 2, Exhibit B to view a diagram of the properties proposed to be annexed. As with all residential subdivisions, conditions of approval for the subdivision require annexation into CFD 2005-1 prior to recordation of the final subdivision map. This will comprise the 17th annexation into CFD 2005-01 (Attachment 4).
FINANCIAL IMPACT:
The 2026/2027 Fiscal Year 2005-1 special tax for single-family residential development is not yet available.
However, the 2025/2026 Fiscal Year CFD 2005-1 special tax for single-family residential development is $583.98 per dwelling unit. Based on this figure, the estimated annual revenue that will be received by the City (Fund 76650) for all 168 units in Annexation No. 17 will be $98,108.64. CFD 2005-1 includes an annual Consumer Price Index (“CPI”) adjustment; therefore, this amount will escalate over time. The process for annexation is funded by the developer and no General Fund monies are used for this effort.
ALTERNATIVES:
The City Council adopted Ordinance C.S. 792 on December 7, 2005, authorizing the levy of a Special Tax within CFD 2005-1 commencing in fiscal year 2006/2007 and each year thereafter. The Council could, at its discretion, consider alternative methods for funding the necessary services that are demanded by residential development and supported by CFD 2005-1. Amendment of the ordinance would be required.

Adopt Resolutions:
1. Approving a Consultant Services Agreement between the City and Madera Unified School District for the Winter Camp for School Year 2025-2026, not to exceed $27,552.50
2. Amending the Fiscal Year 2025/26 Budget, approving related revenue and expenditure line items for the execution of the Consultant Services Agreement with Madera Unified School District, for the Winter Camp
SUMMARY:
Beginning in 2017, the City has partnered with MUSD to provide enrichment activities through camps for students. Over the past years, the City has continued this partnership through its summer camps and winter camps. MUSD recently reached out to the City with a proposal for a one-week winter camp to be hosted at the John Wells Youth Center (JWYC) during January 2026.
The proposed program would be hosted by Parks and Community Services (PCS) Department staff. The program will focus on science, technology, engineering, art, and math (STEAM) curriculum, as well as providing recreational/sports activities for approximately 60 students.
DISCUSSION:
The City and MUSD have partnered for several years to provide meaningful programs to youth during critical out-of-school hours in the form of camps. These programs are designed to serve B-4
Return to Agenda
MUSD’s most vulnerable students by providing students and families with a network of support during extended school breaks.
MUSD would like to once again offer a winter camp to district students from first to sixth grade during January 2026, when school is out of session for the winter break. MUSD has sought out the City to collaborate on making a winter camp possible for district students.
The City would be committing to providing a STEAM-focused camp that intends to provide students with a well-rounded and enriching experience. The camp will offer hands-on learning, physical activity, and creative expression. Students will develop new skills, build confidence, and make lasting memories in a supportive and inclusive environment.
The camp would be for 5 days, from January 5 – 9, 2026. Camp would commence at 8:00 am and end at 3:30 pm. Some of the deliverables to be achieved include:
Physical Activities: Participation in physical activities offers numerous benefits for youth, promoting physical, social, emotional, and cognitive development, and contributing to their overall health, well-being, and success in life.
STEAM Activities: STEAM activities are important for youth as they provide a holistic and interdisciplinary approach to learning, preparing them to thrive in a complex and rapidly changing world. They cultivate essential skills, foster creativity and innovation, and empower youth to become lifelong learners and problem-solvers. Arts and Crafts: Arts and crafts activities play a vital role in youth development by nurturing creativity, promoting emotional well-being, building confidence, and fostering social connections. They provide valuable skills and experiences that contribute to the holistic growth and flourishing of young individuals.
Camp will be broken up into three grade groups:
1st to 2nd: anticipate serving 20 students
3rd to 4th : anticipate serving 20 students
5th to 6th: anticipate serving 20 students
Roles and responsibilities would be per the following:
MUSD will:
Provide meals for the students, which will consist of breakfast and lunch. Conduct outreach and enrollment.
Provide three staff members on site during the camp hours, to handle attendance tracking, help serve meals, disciplinary action (as may be needed) Ensure communication with parents.
Transportation
The City will:
Provide staffing and training at a ratio of 2 staff per 20 students. Prepare the camp activities and lessons, and the execution of these planned activities and lessons.
FINANCIAL IMPACT:
The total value of the Agreement is not to exceed $27,552.50. MUSD will reimburse the City for staffing costs, materials, and an administrative fee. As a result, the contract will provide some General Fund relief for the activities borne from this Agreement.
A budget amendment is proposed to recognize the corresponding anticipated expenditures in staffing costs and materials, as well as the additional revenue of $27,552.50 for FY 2025/26.
These totals would be reflected in the Parks Grants Fund, #41096360.
Table 1: Cost Proposal
Staffing Costs $12,042
Camp Materials $3,000
Coordinator Costs $7,000
Administrative Fee $5,510.50
Total $27,552.50
Staffing costs include the cost of staff training, shopping for materials, assistance with the daily setup/cleanup, and the execution of activities/programming during the five dates identified.
ALTERNATIVES:
As an alternative, the Council may also elect to request additional information be brought forth at the next meeting to make a more informed decision. Council may also elect not to enter into the Consultant Services Agreement with MUSD for the FY 2025/26 winter camp programming.

SUBJECT:
Improvement Deferral Agreement and Authorization of Lien for Jsmak Properties, LLC RECOMMENDATION:
Adopt a resolution of the City of Madera (City) approving Improvement Deferral Agreement and Authorization of Lien for Jsmak Properties, LLC (Agreement) SUMMARY:
Jsmak Properties, LLC (Owner) is constructing a Valero gas station and convenience store on the northeast corner of Gateway Drive and Almond Avenue (Assessor’s Parcel Number (APN) 012- 390-023). Conditional Use Permit (CUP) 2019-16 and 2019-17 along with Site Plan Review (SPR) 2019-23, approved on December 10, 2019, require the Owner construct certain public street improvements including the widening of Gateway Drive and Almond Avenue, traffic signal modifications, and the undergrounding of overhead utility lines along the project frontage. The Owner has been unable to fully complete the required undergrounding and has agreed to defer the dollar-value portion associated with the work. Approval of this deferral requires Council action.
DISCUSSION:
Project condition 35 of the CUP and SPR state that “[a]ll public utilities fronting the project shall be undergrounded, except transformers which shall be mounted on pads”. For reasons that remain unclear, the plans prepared by PG&E for undergrounding work included the installation of a new power pole east of the project site, in front an adjacent property as part of removing existing poles. While removing the poles fronting the project complies with the approved conditions, the installation of new poles introduces at least two negative consequences that were neither explicitly nor implicitly authorized by the Condition:
B-5
Return to Agenda
1. At some time in the future, the cost of removing that new pole will be borne by another entity.
2. The goal of undergrounding is to improve aesthetics of the property and, in general, the City. The new pole degrades the aesthetics of another property.
Based on the consequences of the proposed design, Condition 35 cannot be determined to be met. As such, the pole either needs to be removed from undergrounding plans and not installed, or a deferral agreement must be executed with the City. The pole has since been installed.
When the issue was identified, staff discussed available options with the Owner. PG&E informed the Owner that revising the plans to avoid installing a new pole may be possible but would require additional cost and could result in a substantial delay in opening the store. As a result, the Owner agreed to enter into a deferral agreement for the value of the remaining along Almond Avenue; namely removal of the pole that is planned to be installed in front of another business.
Under the proposed agreement, the Owner will pay the estimated value of removing one pole, approximately $65,000, within 10 years or earlier if another undergrounding project commences that would rely upon the underground of those utilities addressed in this agreement. Staff is supportive of the proposed deferral of the improvements.
FINANCIAL IMPACT:
Approval of the deferral agreement will have no immediate fiscal impact on the City. In the event that the owner defaults on the agreement and does not provide payment upon demand by the City Engineer, the City will place a lien against the property to eventually recoup those costs.
ALTERNATIVES:
Alternatives include requiring undergrounding of the pole through a decision to not approve deferral agreement. This alternative is not supported by staff, as removing the pole after the actual installation can result in devastating delays and expense.

WHEREAS, said deferral is for the cash value of removing a pole not yet installed by virtue of a future cash payment of $65,000 in lieu of actual removal of a pole installed in front of another business.
NOW, THEREFORE, THE CITY COUNCIL OF THE CITY OF MADERA hereby finds, orders and resolves as follows:
1. The above recitals are true and correct.
2. The Improvement Deferral and Authorization of Lien between City of Madera and Jsmak Properties LLC., a copy of which is on file in the office of the City Clerk, is approved.
3. The Mayor is authorized to execute said agreement on behalf of the City.

______________________________ Agenda Number:
Arnoldo Rodriguez, City Manager
SUBJECT:
Acceptance of Energy Services Agreement with ENGIE Services U.S., Inc.
RECOMMENDATION:
Adopt a Minute Order Approving:
1. Acceptance of Energy Services Agreement
2. The Recording of Notice of Completion
3. The release of retention after recording of the Notice of Completion SUMMARY:
In May 2015, the City engaged ENGIE Services U.S. Inc. (ENGIE) to evaluate opportunities for energy conservation and efficiency improvements across City facilities and operations after receiving proposals from ENGIE, Johnson Controls, and Schneider Electric. Over a 16-month period, City staff and ENGIE collaboratively assessed various alternatives to reduce energy consumption and operating costs.
As a result of this analysis, staff recommended that the City Council adopt a Resolution approving an agreement with ENGIE to implement approximately $18.8 million in energy improvement projects designed to generate long-term savings and sustainability benefits for the City.
The project has since been completed, and staff are now seeking City Council approval to formally close out the project.
BACKGROUND:
In 2015, the City engaged to perform an energy assessment and identify energy conservation measures across approximately 50 City sites. The purpose of this assessment was to provide a comprehensive plan for cost-effective energy retrofits, renewable generation, and infrastructure upgrades that would reduce operating costs and enhance facility reliability.
B-6
Return to Agenda
Staff from multiple departments worked collaboratively with ENGIE to evaluate energy use and opportunities for modernization at key City facilities, including the Wastewater Treatment Plant (WWTP), City Hall, the Police Department, the Corporation Yard, Fire Stations, and several community and recreation centers.
Following this extensive assessment, the City Council authorized ENGIE to proceed with the design and implementation of an energy services project.
The scope of the project included the following major components:
▪ Corporation Yard ▪ Transit Center ▪ Engineering Office ▪ Intermodal Transit Facility ▪ Water wells ▪ Wells Youth Center ▪ Police Department ▪ 150 Streetlights ▪ Bergon Senior Center ▪ City Hall ▪ Centennial Park ▪ Municipal Airport
▪ Fire Stations 56 & 57 ▪ Lions Town & Country
Park
▪ Wastewater Treatment
Plant
▪ Sunrise Rotary Sports
Complex
▪ Pan-Am Community
Center
As a result of its analysis, the team identified the following potential projects. As a point of reference for this report, kW represents kilowatts and kWh represents kilowatt hours.
The scope of the project included the following major components:
1. Solar Photovoltaic Systems
a. 360 kW at Lions Town and Country Park
b. 137 kW at the Police Department
c. 94 kW at the Corporation Yard
d. 86 kW at the Municipal Airport
e. 151 kW at City Hall
f. 123 kW at Fire Station #56, Centennial Park, and the John W. Wells Youth Center g. 122 kW at Sunrise Rotary Sports Complex
h. 36 kW at Pan-American Community Center
i. 1,051 kW at the Wastewater Treatment Plant (WWTP)
j. 2,189 kW RES-BCT (Renewable Energy Self-Generation Bill Credit Transfer) project at WWTP for Citywide cost avoidance. This program allows public entities to generate power at one location and apply the net metering credits to multiple meters they own, thereby making the economics of solar more cost effective.
2. Interior & Exterior Lighting improvements at the following facilities:
▪ Municipal Airport ▪ City Hall ▪ Centennial Park
▪ Intermodal Transit
Facility
▪ Fire Stations 56 and 57 ▪ Sunrise Rotary Sports
Complex
▪ Pan-Am Community
Center
▪ Lions Town & Country
Park
▪ Wastewater
Treatment Plant
▪ Engineering Office ▪ Corporation Yard ▪ Police Station ▪ Wells Youth Center ▪ Bergon Senior Center
3. HVAC and Energy Management System (EMS) upgrades at the following sites:
▪ Wells Youth Center ▪ Engineering Office ▪ Fire Stations 56 and 57 ▪ Police Department ▪ Transit Center ▪ City Hall
▪ Wastewater
Treatment Plant
▪ Corp Yard Admin
Building
▪ Municipal Airport
▪ Pan-Am Community
Center
▪ Intermodal Transit
Facility
▪ Bergon Senior Center
4. Electric Vehicle (EV) Charging Stations: Installation of 10 EV charging stations a. 5 at the Corporation Yard
b. 5 at City Hall
5. Electrical Switchgear Replacements to improve power reliability a. Lions Town & Country Park
6. Power Quality & Reliability Upgrades (Capacitor Bank & Controls) a. Wastewater Treatment Plant
7. Community Road & Safety Improvements
a. Installation of 150 solar-powered streetlights throughout the City
8. Educational Student Internships – Go Green Initiative 10 local high school internships to provide training and work experiences in the areas of sustainability and renewable energy
DISCUSSION:
Construction of the solar components began in June 2021. The first solar system at the WWTP became operational in October 2023, with the 2nd solar array nearing completion shortly thereafter. Collectively, these systems are designed to produce approximately 5.9 MW of renewable electricity annually, supplying energy to the WWTP, City Hall, Police Headquarters, and other City facilities.
It should be noted that there were no change orders.
FINANCIAL IMPACT:
The total project investment of approximately $18.8 million was financed through the issuance of $19.4 million in bonds in December 2019. The debt is being repaid through energy savings, rebates, and avoided utility costs.
In January 2025, the City received a $1,966,669.83 federal solar investment tax credit from the Internal Revenue Service under the Inflation Reduction Act (IRA). The City’s bond counsel, Jones Hall, for a cost of $50k, assisted staff in securing this reimbursement, which was distributed across the City funds that contributed to the solar project debt service. Staff anticipates an additional IRS payment in approximately one year.
The $1.97 million solar credit payment received in January 2025 further offsets the project’s financing costs and directly benefits the City’s enterprise and special revenue funds, including the General Fund, Sewer, Water, Airport, and Facilities Funds.
ALTERNATIVES:
As an alternative, Council may elect to reject the Notice of Completion. Rejection of the notice would result in staff’s inability to release retention funds and closing out the project for the Energy Services Agreement with ENGIE Services U.S., Inc.

SUBJECT:
Surplus and disposition of nine (9) Automated External Defibrillators (AEDs) RECOMMENDATION:
Adopt a Resolution authorizing the surplus and disposition of nine (9) end-of-life AEDs to AEDSuperstore through the AED Trade-In Program for $150 each ($1,350 total) SUMMARY:
In 2015, the City of Madera (City) acquired Philips AEDs to be installed in various fixed locations within City facilities. Those AEDs had a useful life of approximately 10 years, which has now passed. After having replaced the AEDs, staff now desires to declare the old AEDs as surplus as they do not retain any useful purpose for the City. The devices and certain accessories are considered medical equipment, which restricts the City from legally selling the items on the open market. AEDSuperstore, an AED retailer, accepts used AEDs for reclamation purposes so long as they meet certain requirements. AEDSuperstore will pay the City $150 for each Philips AED that is traded-in; the City will be responsible for shipping, estimated at $100. The remaining components will be recycled or disposed of, according to local protocol, while the AED cabinets will be stored until such time that the City holds a surplus auction.
DISCUSSION:
The City’s Human Resources Department maintains an on-site AED program which includes maintenance and oversight of AEDs at various City-owned facilities so staff or the public can respond in the event of an emergency. Having AEDs in City facilities also allows the City to meet certain regulatory requirements for public buildings, pools, gyms, etc.
In October 2015, the City purchased Philips HeartStart On-Site Defibrillators (AEDs) for various City sites. After 10 years, the Philips AEDs reached the end of their recommended service life. In October 2025, all Philips AEDs were replaced with new ZOLL AED Plus devices. Once all the Philips Council Meeting of: November 19, 2025
Agenda Number: B-7
Return to Agenda
AEDs were taken out of service and the ZOLL AEDs were in place, staff pursued disposal options.
Staff researched options and identified AEDSuperstore’s trade-in program as the preferred disposal method. AEDSuperstore advised they would accept all nine (9) of the City’s Philips AEDs.
Once the AEDs are received by AEDSuperstore, they will be evaluated for recyclability. If approved, payment will be sent to the City in the amount of $150 each, for a total of $1,350. The City will be responsible for shipping the units to AEDSuperstore, estimated at $100.
Due to the AEDs being classified as medical devices, it would be illegal for the City to list the AEDs for public surplus auction and potentially sell to an individual as the devices are regulated by the Food and Drug Administration.
FINANCIAL IMPACT:
Staff was aware the Philips AEDs would need to be replaced in the current fiscal year, so funds were budgeted for this purpose in the Risk Management Org (10901510). The proceeds from the sale of the AEDs will be deposited into the same org from which the replacement AEDs were purchased.
Table 1 below shows the estimated transaction details.
Table 1: AED Trade-In
Retailer AED Count Trade-in Price Total
AEDSuperstore 9 $150 $1,350
Estimated shipping -$100
Estimated revenue $1,250
ALTERNATIVES:
Staff could be directed to retain the used AEDs or dispose of them at a local hazardous waste facility without compensation.

SUBJECT:
Informational report on the Community Development Block Grant (CDBG) Revolving Loan Program
RECOMMENDATION:
This report is submitted for informational purposes and there is no action requested from the City Council
SUMMARY:
The City is an entitlement grantee under the U.S. Department of Housing and Urban Development (HUD). The Program Year 2025/26 Annual Action Plan (AAP) was approved by Resolution No 25-150. The Program Year 2025/26 AAP describes funding for projects. This funding consists of multiple funding resources including the current CDBG allocation and the Revolving Loan Fund (RLF) program income balance.
During the August 13, 2025, City Council meeting, potentially reallocating funds was discussed.
As directed by Council, staff reviewed the RLF program and consulted with the Madera County Economic Development Commission (MCEDC) to strategize the efficient use of these funds.
DISCUSSION:
The RLF is currently administered by MCEDC. RLF funds are used to provide start-up funds to lowmoderate income local small business owners. The revenue from the loans that are paid back to the City are used to fund new loans. Thus, these monies are “revolving.” The revenue generated by the RLF is considered program income. This revenue is added to the City’s CDBG line of credit with the Department of Housing and Urban Development (HUD) for purposes of determining if the City is meeting its timeliness obligation under the CDBG B-8
Return to Agenda
assurances. Under the timeliness obligation, a CDBG recipient organization is required to maintain a credit balance no greater than one and one-half (1.5) times its annual grant 60 days prior to the end of the program year. Annually, on May 2nd, HUD performs a Timeliness check.
Currently, there are three outstanding loans. Table 1 summarizes the outstanding loans status.
Table 1: Revolving Loan Outstanding Loan Balances
Business Original Loan
Amount
Outstanding Balances as
of November 5, 2025
Jairo Sepulveda $48,600.17 $2,081.70
Galaxy Dance $28,000 $18,085.76
GQ Investments $125,000 $50,564.20
Total: $70,731.66
In addition to the outstanding loan balance total of $70,731.66, there is a total of $387,374.04 available for disbursement.
Revolving Loan Fund Marketing:
The last RLF applications submitted to/approved by the City were in the first quarter of 2021.
While the COVID pandemic suppressed demand for loans funded through this program, it has also become apparent that many potential businesses were not aware of the RLF program. As a result, MCEDC has marketed the RLF program utilizing the following strategies:
1. The RLF program description is included in MCEDC’s monthly newsletter.
2. RLF program information has been added to MCEDC’s website homepage.
3. MCEDC has partnered with the Chamber of Commerce. The Chamber of Commerce included information about the program in their monthly newsletter and has flyers in their office.
4. MCEDC shared the flyer with Madera County Workforce.
While any for-profit business in Madera may apply for an RLF loan, there has been minimal interest over the last few years. The existing loan requirements may be a factor. Some of those requirements are:
1. The minimum loan amount is $20,000.
2. Applicant qualifications include technical assistance in entrepreneurship.
3. HUD guidelines require that for every $35,000 borrowed the client must create one full time job with 51 percent of those jobs being filled by a low to moderate income individual.
4. The loan documents include a collateral requirement such as a deed of trust (lien against real property).
MCEDC agrees that interest in the program has declined but believes the RLF program is a critical tool for local business owners. City staff and the MCEDC continue to meet to determine an amount that is sufficient to fund the RLF program. It is likely that, as a result of those discussions, staff will seek Council approval in 2026 to repurpose a portion of these funds considering the program constraints and the impact of the RLF funds on the City’s ability to meet the HUD timeliness requirement.
FINANCIAL IMPACT:
Disbursement of RLF program income funds do not have an impact on the General Fund.
However, the program income balance is included in the City’s line of credit with HUD. Failure on the City’s behalf to expend this program income balance expeditiously may result in the City’s inability to meet HUD’s Timeliness requirement.

This is an informational item only.

Budget Amendment for Appliance Purchases
RECOMMENDATION:
Adopt a Resolution approving a budget amendment to the Fiscal Year 2025/26 Operating Budget to appropriate Supplemental Law Enforcement Services Fund balance funds for the purchase of an ice maker and evidence refrigerator
SUMMARY:
The Police Department (MPD) is requesting City Council approval of a Resolution authorizing a budget amendment to the Fiscal Year 2025/26 Operating Budget to appropriate funds from the Supplemental Law Enforcement Services Fund (SLESF) balance. The funds requested will be used to purchase a replacement ice maker for the MPD’s breakroom and a new refrigerator for the evidence room. These purchases were not anticipated during the annual budget preparation process, as both existing units failed unexpectedly after the budget was adopted.
DISCUSSION:
MPD has experienced unexpected failures of two essential equipment items, the break room ice maker and the evidence refrigerator. The ice maker, located in the staff break room, has become inoperable and cannot be repaired. The ice maker is an essential appliance that promotes employee health and comfort while also serving as a valuable resource during community engagement events. Because the failure occurred after adoption of the current budget, no funds were allocated for its replacement.
Similarly, the evidence refrigerator, which is critical for the proper storage of biological and perishable evidence, has reached the end of its service life and must be replaced to maintain compliance with state and local evidence handling standards. The refrigerator’s replacement was also unplanned and therefore not included in the current fiscal year budget.
Council Meeting of: November 19, 2025
Agenda Number: B-9
Return to Agenda
MPD has made attempts to fix both the refrigerator and ice maker, but the repairs did not last and were unreliable. Service providers confirmed both units are past their typical service life, justifying a full replacement to ensure long-term serviceability.
To address these unforeseen equipment needs, MPD proposes using available funds from the SLESF balance. SLESF funds may be used to support front-line law enforcement operations and related equipment. Approval of this budget amendment will authorize the appropriation of SLESF balance funds to purchase both the ice maker and the evidence refrigerator, ensuring MPD’s operational and compliance needs are met.
FINANCIAL IMPACT:
Approval of the Resolution will amend the Fiscal Year 2025/26 Operating Budget to appropriate $13,500 from the SLESF balance for the purchase of one break room ice maker and one evidence refrigerator. These expenses were not included in the adopted budget due to the unforeseen equipment failures. Sufficient fund balance is available, and no impact on the General Fund is anticipated.
ALTERNATIVES:
Council may request staff return with additional information or request staff use an alternative source of funds to purchase the appliances.

SUBJECT:
California Department of Fish and Wildlife (CDFW) Hunter Education Fee Waiver Requests RECOMMENDATION:
Adopt a Resolution waiving the rental fees of the Rotary Youth Hut on 16 dates through September 2026, related to Hunter Education Classes, hosted by the California Department of Fish and Wildlife, at an anticipated rental fee of $3,545 SUMMARY:
The City received a request from the CDFW seeking a waiver of rental fees for the use of the Rotary Youth Hut to host 16 classes, on separate dates from December 2025 through September 2026.
The classes are Hunter Education Classes, focused on safety and also teach ecology, environmental protection, and stewardship of natural resources through legal and ethical practices. These classes are intended for those wishing to learn about hunting, need refresher courses, or are in need of strict instruction on the safe handling of firearms.
DISCUSSION:
CDFW has submitted a formal request in writing to use the Rotary Youth Hut to host 16 classes on separate dates from December 2025 through September 2026. These classes are under the hunter education program.
California requires hunter education training for those who:
Have never held a California hunting license
Do not have a hunter education certificate, or
B-10
Return to Agenda
Do not have a hunting license from another state or province issued within the past two years.
Students may choose between two different types of hunter education class format options: (1) Traditional Hunter Education Class and (2) an Online Follow-up Class.

Mercedes,
Thank you for reaching out to me today and following up on this. Brent D Denatly is currently an active Hunter Education instructor with the California Department of Fish and Wildlife hunter education program.
Instructor Denatly is currently in the process to find a location where he can continually offer hunter education classes. California requires hunter education training for those who have never held a California hunting license, who do not have a hunter education certificate, or who do not have a hunting license from another state or province issued within the past two years. Students may choose between two different types of hunter education class format options (1) Traditional Hunter Education Class and (2) an Online Follow-up Class. Hours of instruction vary on the type of class the instructor is offering. Classes are offered throughout the State by more than 1,000 certified volunteer instructors, all dedicated to keeping hunting safe, ethical, and available to all Californians. The backbone of California’s hunter education training effort is the many dedicated volunteer instructors, who give their time and energy to the program. They have been the driving force for the program since its inception. California instructors have trained well over one million hunters since the start of the program. Training in the principles of firearm safety, hunter ethics and sportsmanship, wildlife conservation and management, and hunter-landowner relations are the keys for a safe hunting future. In a continued effort to reduce firearm accidents, the State of California requires all first-time resident hunters, regardless of age, to complete hunter education training or pass a comprehensive equivalency test before purchasing a hunting license. In collaboration with volunteer instructors, CDFW provides for hunter education throughout the state. I hope this is what you were looking for, if you have any additional questions pertaining to our program, please do not hesitate to reach out to me directly.
Thanks,

SUBJECT:
Agreement with SNF Polydyne Inc. forsludge dewatering polymers RECOMMENDATION:
Adopt a resolution approving a five-year agreement with SNF Polydyne Inc. to provide sludge dewatering polymers for use at the Wastewater Treatment Plant.
SUMMARY:
The City of Madera (City) owns and operates a Wastewater Treatment Plant (WWTP) with a sludge dewatering facility southwest of the City. Sludge is a byproduct of wastewater treatment and is dewatered to reduce volume and lower disposal costs. The dewatering process at the WWTP employs two sludge centrifuges that require polymer to enhance water removal. Staff published a Request for Proposals (RFP) and received one (1) responsive bid. The proposed fiveyear agreement with SNF Polydyne Inc. provides a continued supply of polymer necessary for WWTP operations.
DISCUSSION:
The City previously maintained a contract with SNF Polydyne Inc., which expired June 21, 2025.
Since that time, the City has continued purchasing the required sludge dewatering polymer from SNF Polydyne Inc. on an as-needed basis to ensure uninterrupted operations.
To establish a new agreement, the City issued RFP No. 202526-10 – Sludge Dewatering Polymers on August 25, 2025, in compliance with the City’s purchasing policy. The RFP was posted on PlanetBids, the City’s online procurement platform, which notified 45 registered vendors. In addition, the RFP was emailed directly to 45 additional firms to ensure broad outreach. Of the notified businesses, 15 firms downloaded the solicitation, and 13 indicated their intent to submit a proposal.
Interested vendors were required to conduct a jar test at the WWTP to evaluate polymer effectiveness under actual operating conditions and under staff supervision. Two (2) firms B-12
Return to Agenda
completed jar tests, and one (1) proposal from SNF Polydyne Inc. was submitted by the September 22, 2025, deadline.
The proposal was reviewed in accordance with the evaluation criteria outlined in the RFP and was found to meet the City’s technical and performance requirements.
The evaluation criteria as presented in the RFP are outlined in Table 1.
Table 1: Evaluation Criteria and Evaluation Score
Criteria Max. Evaluation Score
Completeness of Response Pass/Fail
Product Specifications 80

Cost Proposal 15
Total 100
SNF Polydyne Inc. has provided the requested polymers at the WWTP for several years with no product or customer service issues. Based on the outcome of the jar test and submittal of a responsive bid, staff is recommending award of the agreement to SNF Polydyne Inc. A summary of the proposed agreement is asfollows.
The agreement term is five (5) years with no extensions. The supplier will be responsible for delivering the sludge dewatering polymer and offloading it.
A sales representative shall provide a monthly service call to monitor the polymer’s performance and ensure that the same efficiency is maintained as shown in the jar test. The supplier shall provide the polymer on an “on-call, as needed” basis with no minimums or maximums.
The agreement may be terminated at any time without liability with 30 business days prior written notice by either party. In the event of such termination, the supplier will be paid for all goods provided prior to termination.
FINANCIAL IMPACT:
Under the proposed agreement, SNF Polydyne Inc. will supply the City with sludge dewatering polymer at a rate of $1.54 per pound, plus applicable sales tax, including delivery. This is lower than the City’s current rate of $1.93 per pound, resulting in an approximate 20% cost savings on a unit-price basis.
Polymer usage fluctuates throughout the year based on operational needs, influent conditions, and seasonal flows. Because of this variability, annual expenditures are difficult to precisely quantify. However, given the reduced unit cost under the new agreement and the historical range of polymer usage at the WWTP, staff anticipates that all associated expenses will remain well within the existing operating budget. These expenditures are funded through the Wastewater Utility Fund, supported by sewer service rates, and represent a routine operating cost necessary for the continued treatment and disposal of wastewater.
ALTERNATIVES:
Alternatively, Council may choose to:

Purchase of Boise Mobile Equipment Type-6 Custom Fire Engine and Related Budget Amendment
RECOMMENDATION:
Adopt a Resolution Approving a Purchase Agreement for a Bosie Mobile Equipment (BME) Type 6 Fire Engine from Golden State Fire Apparatus under Houston-Galveston Area Council (H-GAC) Cooperative Purchase Contract #FS12-23; authorizing execution by City Manager; and approving an amendment to the 2025/26 adopted budget appropriating $461,480.25 for the purchase in the Measure K Fire Budget for the Purchase of Equipment SUMMARY:
The City owns and maintains a fleet of fire apparatus comprised of engines and trucks. Each responds as first out from one of the City’s three stations, while older engines are kept on reserve to be made available when one of the primary engines is out of service or for routine maintenance. Today, the City has a single Type-6 engine and staff is proposing that it be replaced with a new, similar type engine. The existing engine, Engine 656, is a 2006 Ford F-550 Type-6 apparatus and housed at Station 56. The City primarily uses it for vegetation fires, particularly along the Fresno River.
Wait times for the construction of a new engine are in excess of two years. If approved, it is anticipated that the new engine will be delivered in approximately 30 months.
DISCUSSION:
Staff researched the types and styles of engines exhaustively. Staff has reached out to various engine manufacturers and neighboring cities to find an engine that best serves the City's needs.
D-1
Return to Agenda
While the current 2006 Type-6 engine has served the City well, it is showing signs of wear, and annual repair costs are increasing. E-656 has registered approximately 50,250 miles, and the problem is exacerbated by the fact that replacement parts are becoming increasingly difficult to locate.
While there are many engine types, their purpose differs. The National Fire Protection Association (NFPA) classifies engines by type and function. It is noted that, typically, according to NFPA Standards, the frontline service for an engine is 15 years. After 15 years, engines are often placed on reserve status for an additional 5 years, for approximately 20-year service life.
E-656 is 19 years old and serves as a frontline engine for vegetation fires in the City within Station 56's response area and surrounding areas. The new engine would replace it and also serve as a frontline engine. Existing E-656 engine would be moved into reserve status.
Table 1 summarizes the various engine types, in short, a Type 1 Fire Engine (e.g. E-56 and E-57) is a full-sized structural firefighting apparatus designed primarily for urban environments. It typically carries up to 500 gallons of water and is equipped with a full complement of ladders, hoses, and tools for structure fires and rescue operations.
A Type 1 Ladder Truck (also referred to as an aerial ladder or “truck company”; e.g. Truck 58) is designed for firefighting and rescue operations involving multistory or large commercial structures. It is equipped with an aerial ladder and specialized tools such as ventilation saws, forcible entry equipment, and ground ladders. Unlike a Type 1 engine, the ladder truck generally carries less water and focuses on providing access, ventilation, and rescue support.
In contrast, a Type 6 Fire Engine is a smaller, more maneuverable wildland or quick-attack unit built on a pickup-style chassis. It generally carries 150 to 300 gallons of water and includes limited hose and equipment. Type 6 engines are well-suited for vegetation fires, medical responses, and incidents in areas with restricted access where larger apparatuses cannot easily operate.
Table 1: Engine Types
Type Brief Description
1 ▪ Most common fire truck in use today
▪ Typically responds to structural fires
▪ Usually transports up to 4 firefighters
2 ▪ More common in rural areas
▪ May be used for structural fires, but also grass fires ▪ Usually transports up to 3-4 firefighters
3 ▪ Wildland engine
▪ Has the ability to drive in rough terrain
▪ Common in rural areas
4 ▪ Wildland engine
▪ Similar to Type 3, but a smaller pump and less hose
5, 6, 7 ▪ Typically pick-up truck-based with 4-wheel drive ▪ Used heavily in vegetation fires due to its off-road abilities Based on the age and use of E-656, the engine has become less reliable, and annual operating costs are increasing. As such, the likelihood of potential breakdowns or start failures increases.
Such issues could affect response times, which in turn could impact the City’s Insurance Services Office (ISO) score. In anticipation of replacing the Type-6 engine, the Fire Department created an apparatus committee in November 2024 to research the various types of engines.
The committee consisted of individuals of different firefighter ranks, knowledge, and expertise.
The committee was tasked with conducting its own independent research and reporting its findings. The committee's recommendation culminates a year of research, and the result will be an apparatus tailored to the City's needs. The committee met on numerous occasions to discuss features, technology, specifications, warranty, and service. Based on this research, the committee is recommending a Boise Mobile Fire Equipment (BME) Custom Type-6 Fire Apparatus.
Equipment Overview
The following tables highlight the City’s existing and proposed fleet by station. Frontline engines are identified by the station number, whereas reserves are reassigned a number in the 200s.
Engine 656 is a Type 6 engine, hence the 600 number.

a Subject of this report. If approved, this engine would be purchased.
In addition to City use, engines are often used to provide mutual aid throughout the State.
When resources are sent on Statewide mutual aid assignments, the City is reimbursed for the costs of staff and for the use of vehicles. As the fleet ages, it becomes more challenging to dispatch engines on mutual aid assignments.
Vendor Selection Process
The purchase may be made without the City soliciting formal bids because the basic specifications and corresponding purchase price have already been formally and competitively bid under a cooperative purchasing contract through the Houston-Galveston Area Council (HGAC), which allows local governments and non-profits nationwide to purchase goods and services through pre-negotiated contracts.
Status of Engine-656
Upon receipt, the City would place the current E-656 into reserve status at Station 58, where it would be designated Engine 658. This would allow personnel at Station 58 to cross-staff on E658 and respond to wildland fires, as E-658 is better suited for off-road conditions and carries more water than Truck 58. This approach will also help minimize wear and tear on Truck 58, as repairs and replacement parts for the ladder truck are generally more costly.
FINANCIAL IMPACT:
In an effort to plan for vehicle replacement costs, the City established a Motor Vehicle Replacement Fund that accumulates annual contributions based on a vehicle's set replacement value and estimated useful life. At the time, fire engines were not included in the program. As a result, staff created a Fire Equipment Replacement Program (FERP) in Fiscal Year 2019/20 using Measure K revenue. In creating the FERP, the following assumptions were made:
▪ Frontline engines have an expected service life of 15 years ▪ The City has 3 fire stations; thus, the City would need to purchase a new fire engine every 5 years
▪ Type-6 Engines, fully equipped, cost approximately $550K ▪ $490k from Measure K would be assigned annually; up from the original allocation of $200k
Similar to most financial assumptions, a recalibration may be necessary in the future due to changes in market conditions or increases in equipment costs. The City implemented such a recalibration in FY 2022/23 in response to rising fire engine costs, ensuring that budget projections remained aligned with actual expenditures.
Table 4: Annual budget allocations to the FERP (source: Measure K) Fiscal Year (FY) $ allocation per FY Total
2018/19a, 2019/20, 2020/21, 2021/22 $200,000 $800,000
2022/23, 2023/24, 2024/25, 2025/26 $490,000 $1,960,000
Total: - $2,760,000
a Funds were not originally allocated during the 2018/19 budget process.
Rather, the City retroactively assigned unexpected additional revenue from Measure K in FY 2018/19
Over the past several years, the City has invested in equipment to enhance the Fire Department’s operational capacity and proactively reduce the likelihood of fires starting within the community. These funds have been used not only for direct fire department equipment, such as apparatus and protective gear, but also for heavy equipment that enables the City to reduce fire fuel loads, including the removal of dry brush and overgrown vegetation along the Fresno River.
Fortunately, the City has been able to allocate funds for eight fiscal years, including the retroactive year, which has allowed for the purchase of both new and replacement equipment. These ongoing investments have improved emergency response capabilities and significantly reduced the severity and frequency of fires, particularly along the Fresno River.
Table 5 summarizes equipment acquisitions.
Table 5: Equipment acquisitions under the FERP
Year Equipment Purchased Purchase total
FY 2019/20 Utility Terrain Vehicle 1 $20,545
FY 2021/22 Type 1; Engine 57 $751,460

FY 2023/24 Utility Terrain Vehicle 2 $23,704
FY 2023/24 Tractor with boom for Safe & Clean Team $150,182 FY 2024/25 Skid steer with masticator for Safe & Clean $113,533 FY 2023/24 Flail mower for Safe & Clean Team $13,977
Total $1,279,945
aAll figures rounded to the nearest dollar.
The City has approximately $1.4M in the FERP, including the $490K for the current fiscal year.
The base price of the Type-6 engine is $461,480.25. The dealer offers a pre-payment option.
If exercised, the price under the pre-payment option would be $439,938.50. The prepayment price is $21,541.75 lower than the base price. However, staff has calculated that the City will lose approximately $38,500 of interest income during the 30-month construction period of the vehicle if the pre-payment is made. Given the loss of interest income, staff is recommending that the base price option be selected.

b Not part of this request, rather a future item will
be brought before Council for consideration.
While costly, citizens can rest assured that the staff does not take this purchase casually.
Rather, staff has taken necessary steps to obtain the most precise and accurate information to purchase the best product available. The initial Type-6 engine is one of the essential tools that the City employs for vegetation fires. With the increase of vegetation fires in recent years within the City and the Fresno River, the Type-6 engine is paramount to keeping these fires from spreading. Above all, this apparatus will ensure lasting service to serve and safeguard the citizens and properties the City is charged with protecting.

ARTICLE 3: MOST FAVORED CUSTOMER CLAUSE
Contractor shall provide its most favorable pricing and terms to H-GAC. If at any time during this Master Agreement, Contractor develops a regularly followed standard procedure of entering into Master Agreements with other governmental customers within the State of Texas, and offers the same or substantially the same products/services offered to H-GAC on a basis that provides prices, warranties, benefits, and or terms more favorable than those provided to H-GAC, Contractor shall notify H-GAC within ten (10) business days thereafter, and this Master Agreement shall be deemed to be automatically retroactively amended, to the effective date of Contractor’s most favorable past Master Agreement with another entity. Contractor shall provide the same prices, warranties, benefits, or terms to H-GAC and its CUSTOMER/END USER as provided in its most favorable past Master Agreement. H-GAC shall have the right and option at any time to decline to accept any such change, in which case the amendment shall be deemed null and void. If Contractor claims that a more favorable price, warranty, benefit, or term that was charged or offered to another entity during the term of this Master Agreement, does not constitute more favorable treatment, than Contractor shall, within ten (10) business days, notify H-GAC in writing, setting forth the detailed reasons Contractor believes the aforesaid DocuSign Envelope ID: 0A63A143-0C75-4C05-AAD2-90059CD17D51
