Mammoth Lakes Fire
Protection District
Reducing the Risk of Wildfires and Natural Disasters
in Mammoth Lakes

Page 8 of 229 ends

Protecting Mammoth Lakes
• The Mammoth Lakes
Fire Protection District
(MLFPD) is the first line of
defense against wildfires
and natural disasters
• Responds to 900
emergencies a year to
protect 11,500
Mammoth Lakes parcels

Page 9 of 229 ends

Threat of Natural Disasters
• Over the years, severe
weather events are leading
to more out of control
wildfires and natural disasters
• Our area is vulnerable to
• wildfires
• earthquakes
• propane explosions

Page 10 of 229 ends

Threat of Natural Disasters
• A wildfire near Mammoth
Lakes could threaten our
entire community
• homes
• schools
• businesses
• wildlife
• local forest

Page 11 of 229 ends

Potential Measure to
Reduce the Risk of Wildfires
• MLFPD Board of Commissioners is considering
placing a potential parcel tax measure on the
November 2024 ballot
• The potential measure would generate
approximately $925,000 annually and would cost
homeowners $98 per parcel
• Potential measure would provide a stable,
dedicated source of funding to support MLFD’s
activities and operations

Page 12 of 229 ends

What would funds be used for?
• Provide rapid 9-1-1 emergency medical
response
• Increase summer firefighter staffing to maintain a
wildfire engine during peak fire season
• Address dangerous conditions from heavy
snowfall
• Fund wildfire protection programs like chipping,
clearing brush and cutting community fuel breaks

Page 13 of 229 ends

What would funds be used for?
• Assist residents with creating and maintaining
wildfire defensible space around their homes and
property
• Improve communication systems to assist in
coordinating operations during local
emergencies
• Ensure fire trucks, protective gear, and
communications technology are kept up-to-date
and well-maintained

Page 14 of 229 ends

Fiscal Accountability
• Money raised could only be used for services the
Mammoth Lakes Fire Department provides to
the community
• No funds could be diverted to the State, Mono
County or to the Town of Mammoth Lakes
• An independent citizens’ oversight committee
would ensure funds are spent as promised
• An exemption from the cost of the measure
would be available for low-income seniors 65
and older

We Want to Hear From You!
If you have questions about this planning effort or
about steps you can take to help prevent wildfire and
better prepare for an emergency, please contact:

This July, join the Town of Mammoth Lakes Parks and Recreation Department for Park and Recreation Month, as we celebrate how Mammoth Lakes is stronger, more vibrant and more resilient because of parks and recreation. A variety of activities are planned for residents and visitors of all ages and abilities during the month of July including FREE swim Sundays at the Whitmore Pool, FREE Fun Fridays at the Mammoth RecZone, the annual beach volleyball tournament at Shady Rest Park, the Men’s and Coed Softball tournaments at Shady Rest Park and register for any of our signature or contracted parks and recreation summer camps and programs.

Trees near
Frontier
Lines in
Lakes Basin
In partnership with
Mammoth Fire, OOR
trail crews have been
dropping trees along
the MUPs between
the Art Gallery and the
Mammoth Pack
Station. All trees that
could affect the MUP
alone have been
dropped. Many more
trees need to be
dropped but require
Frontier to lower their
lines. Frontier has not
done so, so work is
unable to continue at
this time.

OOR staff is cleaning up the area and will temporarily open the MUP for the 4th of July week/weekend.

Special thanks to MLFD for all their help and hard work.

MLFD is not responsible for any of the trees in question, yet has been an excellent partner with the town to accomplish our shared goal of safely removing these hazards. TOML is responsible for any hazard trees along the MUPs, but
currently all the trees in question could drop on both the MUP and Frontier phone lines. It took the Inyo some time to inform TOML that we are responsible for dropping &
bucking the trees, while Frontier is responsible for dropping their lines.

Community
Center
Parcel
Immediately adjacent
to the community
center, the OOR has
established a small
recreation site with 3
picnic tables, bear
box, bike tool station,
and trash facilities.

Trail Crew cleaned the
area resulting in
multiple trailer-loads
of duff being taken to
the dump.

Agreements
& Contracts
The OOR has been
working with
Whitebark to update
various MOU’s and
Letters of Agreement
that govern the
Eastern Sierra
Climate and
Communities
Resilience Project.

These updates
primarily involve
funding sources.

Agenda Action Sheet
Title: Authorize the Mayor to sign a letter to the U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service (FWS) requesting that Mammoth Yosemite Airport be withdrawn from the Bi-State Distinct Population Segment of Greater Sage Grouse critical habitat designation.

Council Meeting Date: 7/3/2024
Prepared by: Sierra Waugh, Deputy Airport Manager
Recommended Motion: Authorize the Mayor to sign a letter to the U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service (FWS) requesting that Mammoth Yosemite Airport be withdrawn from the Bi-State Distinct Population Segment of Greater Sage Grouse critical habitat designation.

Summary: The U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service is proposing a critical habitat designation for BiState Distinct Population Segment of Greater Sage Grouse on and around Mammoth Yosemite Airport (263-acres), located in Mono County. The attached letter requests that FWS withdraw Mammoth Yosemite Airport from the proposed critical habitat designation.

To maintain and operate the Airport in compliance with Federal Aviation Administration (FAA) airport design and operation standards, the Airport must be allowed to ensure that safety is maintained. This includes mowing, fencing, Foreign Object Debris (FOD) prevention, bird strike mitigation, and mitigation of terrestrial wildlife hazards. A designation as critical habitat would constrain the ability of the Airport to operate safely and increase the financial burden associated with routine maintenance. The Town and FAA will continue to cooperate with FWS to protect the Greater Sage Grouse in a way that meets the requirements of the Endangered Species Act and provides for the continued safe operations of the Airport.

Proposed U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service Critical Habitat Designation for the Bi-State Distinct Population Segment of Greater Sage-Grouse
Request Summary
The Town of Mammoth Lakes, California respectfully requests that the U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service withdraw the Mammoth Yosemite Airport (263-acres), located in Mono County, California, from the proposed critical habitat designation for the Bi-State Distinct Population Segment of Greater Sage Grouse. Mammoth Yosemite Airport is part of the Federal Aviation Administration (FAA) National Plan of Integrated Airport Systems (NPIAS) and the only airport with scheduled charter service in Mono County. The Airport is a critical economic and transportation element serving all the communities located in the Eastern Sierra. In order to maintain and operate the Airport in compliance with FAA airport design and operation standards, the Airport must be allowed to ensure that safety is maintained. This includes mowing, fencing, Foreign Object Debris (FOD) prevention, bird strike mitigation, and mitigation of terrestrial wildlife hazards. A designation as critical habitat would constrain the ability of the Airport to operate safely and increase the financial burden associated with routine maintenance.

Most of the Airport is currently developed or proposed for short-term development that is not conducive to Greater Sage Grouse habitat. Large portions of the Airport are paved, covered by buildings, or set aside by the FAA as special use areas as shown in Exhibit A – Airport Property Usage. To meet FAA safety requirements, significant areas on each side of the runway and taxiway are set aside as Runway Safety Areas and Runway Object Free Areas or Taxiway Safety Areas and Object Free Areas. These areas must be graded, mowed, or otherwise treated to remove objects that could adversely affect the integrity of an aircraft operating within these areas. Fire prevention and protection also requires clearing brush around buildings and roads. Essentially, the airport requires maintenance which renders it unsuitable as Greater Sage Grouse habitat.

Withdrawing the Airport from the proposed critical habitat consideration does not relieve the Town of Mammoth Lakes (Town) of its obligations under any Federal law, regulations, or guidance including the Endangered Species Act (ESA). Withdrawing does, however, provide the Town with management options to protect the species and maintain a safely operating Airport. In 2015, the Town Town of Mammoth Lakes

prepared a Wildlife Hazard Assessment (WHA) in accordance with FAA Advisory Circular 150/5200-33C (previously AC 150/5200-33B), Hazardous Wildlife Attractants on or Near Airports.

The assessment identified each species causing an aviation hazard, its seasonal populations, and the extent of the hazard. The assessment included investigation of areas for concentrations of wildlife attracted to specific locations and features.

In 2015, after the completion of the WHA and utilizing the assessments findings, the Town in conjunction with the FAA prepared a Wildlife Hazard Management Plan (WHMP) for the airport.

Agency expertise was used to create a plan that integrates agencies’ respective programmatic responsibilities while complying with existing laws, regulations, and policies. Under provisions of 14 CFR §139.337(a) the Airport is required to take immediate action to alleviate wildlife hazards whenever they are detected. The plan allows safe operations and maintenance of the Airport while avoiding adverse impacts to wildlife populations.

An inter-agency process was facilitated by the “Memorandum of Agreement Between the Federal Aviation Administration, the U.S. Air Force, the U.S. Army, the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency, the U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service, and the U.S. Department of Agriculture to Address Aircraft-Wildlife Strikes” signed by all parties in 2003. The stated purpose of the MOA is: “Through this MOA, the agencies establish procedures necessary to coordinate their missions to more effectively address existing and future environmental conditions contributing to aircraft-wildlife risks to aviation and human safety, while protecting the Nation’s valuable environmental resources.” As stated above, the Town of Mammoth Lakes is committed to working with all interested parties to comply with all applicable laws, protect endangered species, mitigate risks to aviation, and protect human safety.

Mammoth Yosemite Airport, the FAA and the Endangered Species Act.

Mammoth Yosemite Airport is owned and operated by the Town of Mammoth Lakes. The Airport occupies 263-acres on the eastern side of the Sierra Nevada in the Long Valley Caldera, in Mono County, California, 196 acres are owned fee simple by the Town and 67 acres are leased or covered by special use permit (See Exhibit B – Airport Interests). The Airport is located approximately seven miles south of the Town, adjacent to U.S. Highway 395, and is a critical component of the region’s emergency and transportation infrastructure.

The Airport which has been at its current location since the early 1940’s has played an increasingly important role as a source of transportation and emergency response. Today, the Airport serves scheduled charter flights, firefighting, search and rescue, medevac, military and other aircraft. The Airport provides a location for high-altitude training, aircraft maintenance and resources for regional utility management services The Airport plays an increasingly important role in firefighting resources as climate change increases the risk of wildland fires.

The Airport is a significant element of firefighting operations and is critical for a highly prone fire area such as the Eastern Sierra. The Airport serves as a base during firefighting operations, and a staging location for aircraft used for initial fire response.

Page 37 of 229 ends

Mammoth Yosemite Airport is used commonly by visitors and skiers to Mammoth Mountain Ski Area, the primary private employer in the area and single largest private contributor to the area’s economic base. The Town considers the Airport an economic resource to remain competitive with other ski resorts and recreational designations in the western United States.

Mammoth Yosemite Airport serves a large general aviation community including the regions’ air ambulance services, and Sierra Life Flight which is based at the Airport. Access to reliable air ambulance services within ten minutes of the Town is critical to the well-being of residents and visitors. The next closest airport is located 45 miles south, in Bishop, California, a one-hour drive.

The Town has prepared numerous environmental assessments and biological surveys on and near the Airport. Those surveys and assessments acknowledge that the Airport is located within potential Greater Sage Grouse habitat but have never identified any grouse leks or resident individuals.

Mammoth Yosemite Airport is a “Federally Obligated” airport. Federally Obligated airports are public airports that have accepted Federal assistance, either in the form of grants or property conveyances. The U.S. Department of Transportation, Federal Aviation Administration is responsible for regulating civil aviation to promote safety and serves as the lead Federal agency for National Environmental Policy Act (NEPA) and for enforcing special purpose laws, such as the Endangered Species Act. The FAA reviews and approves airport plans, specifically the Airport Layout Plan (ALP) prior to consideration or approval of Airport Improvement Program (AIP) funding. Noncompliance with NEPA, the airport’s ALP, and federal directives, regulations, and laws would render a proposed project ineligible for AIP funding.

When the Airport’s legal owner and operator, the Town of Mammoth Lakes, accepted Federal financial assistance it agreed to comply with all Federal Grant Assurances associated with federal financing. Among its grant assurances, the Town certifies that it will comply with:
• National Environmental Policy Act of 1969 – 42 U.S.C. § 4321, et seq. • Executive Order 11990 – Protection of Wetlands
For its part, the FAA acts as the lead Federal agency for the compliance with both the procedures and policies of NEPA and for the enforcement of applicable special purpose laws to include the Endangered Species Act (16 USC Section 1531, et seq).

If the Mammoth Yosemite Airport is included in the Bi-State District Population Segment of Greater Sage Grouse critical habitat as currently proposed, the FAA, as the lead federal environmental agency, will be required to consult with the U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service (FWS) for all Airport surface disturbances within designated critical habitat. Generally, as with other airports that have been designated critical habitat for other species, this means that all activities, including routine maintenance and minor construction, such as replacing a buried electrical cable, are subject to consultation between the FAA and FWS, preparation of a Biological Assessment (BA), preparation of a Biological Opinion (BO) and preparation of a NEPA compliance document.

Furthermore, because of the way the FAA funds airport projects (federal actions), it is not always possible to foresee all future projects which should be included in the BA/BO process. Additionally,

Page 38 of 229 ends

the FAA defines near-term projects as 3 to 5 years and long-term projects as having horizons greater than 5 years; but will only approve funding for near-term projects. Therefore, any long-term projects would require additional consultation between federal agencies per ESA Section 7. The consultation process is time consuming and financially burdensome for the Town and for the FAA which typically funds a significant portion of all environmental permitting.

Since the FAA remains obligated to enforce the ESA, withdrawal of the Mammoth Yosemite Airport from the Bi-State Distinct Population Segment of Greater Sage Grouse critical habitat designation does not threaten the species population. Withdrawal provides management options and eliminates the potential for perpetual consultation between the FAA and FWS.

Therefore, the Town of Mammoth Lakes requests that Mammoth Yosemite Airport, a 263-acre area as shown on Exhibit B, be withdrawn from the Bi-State Distinct Population Segment of Greater Sage Grouse because it presents an economic and management hardship on the Town and because the species will remain protected under ESA as administered by the FAA and the FWS.

The Town and the FAA will continue to cooperate with the FWS to protect the Greater Sage Grouse in such a way that it meets the requirements of the ESA and provides for the continued safe operations of the Mammoth Yosemite Airport.

Mammoth Yosemite Airport, the FAA and the Endangered Species Act.

Mammoth Yosemite Airport is owned and operated by the Town of Mammoth Lakes. The Airport occupies 263-acres on the eastern side of the Sierra Nevada in the Long Valley Caldera, in Mono County, California, 196 acres are owned fee simple by the Town and 67 acres are leased or covered by special use permit (See Exhibit B – Airport Interests). The Airport is located approximately seven miles south of the Town, adjacent to U.S. Highway 395, and is a critical component of the region’s emergency and transportation infrastructure.

The Airport which has been at its current location since the early 1940’s has played an increasingly important role as a source of transportation and emergency response. Today, the Airport serves scheduled charter flights, firefighting, search and rescue, medevac, military and other aircraft. The Airport provides a location for high-altitude training, aircraft maintenance and resources for regional utility management services The Airport plays an increasingly important role in firefighting resources as climate change increases the risk of wildland fires.

The Airport is a significant element of firefighting operations and is critical for a highly prone fire area such as the Eastern Sierra. The Airport serves as a base during firefighting operations, and a staging location for aircraft used for initial fire response.

Mammoth Yosemite Airport is used commonly by visitors and skiers to Mammoth Mountain Ski Area, the primary private employer in the area and single largest private contributor to the area’s economic base. The Town considers the Airport an economic resource to remain competitive with other ski resorts and recreational designations in the western United States.

Mammoth Yosemite Airport serves a large general aviation community including the regions’ air ambulance services, and Sierra Life Flight which is based at the Airport. Access to reliable air ambulance services within ten minutes of the Town is critical to the well-being of residents and visitors. The next closest airport is located 45 miles south, in Bishop, California, a one-hour drive.

The Town has prepared numerous environmental assessments and biological surveys on and near the Airport. Those surveys and assessments acknowledge that the Airport is located within potential Greater Sage Grouse habitat but have never identified any grouse leks or resident individuals.

Mammoth Yosemite Airport is a “Federally Obligated” airport. Federally Obligated airports are public airports that have accepted Federal assistance, either in the form of grants or property conveyances. The U.S. Department of Transportation, Federal Aviation Administration is responsible for regulating civil aviation to promote safety and serves as the lead Federal agency for National Environmental Policy Act (NEPA) and for enforcing special purpose laws, such as the Endangered Species Act. The FAA reviews and approves airport plans, specifically the Airport Layout Plan (ALP) prior to consideration or approval of Airport Improvement Program (AIP) funding. Noncompliance with NEPA, the airport’s ALP, and federal directives, regulations, and laws would render a proposed project ineligible for AIP funding.

When the Airport’s legal owner and operator, the Town of Mammoth Lakes, accepted Federal financial assistance it agreed to comply with all Federal Grant Assurances associated with federal financing. Among its grant assurances, the Town certifies that it will comply with:
• National Environmental Policy Act of 1969 – 42 U.S.C. § 4321, et seq. • Executive Order 11990 – Protection of Wetlands
For its part, the FAA acts as the lead Federal agency for the compliance with both the procedures and policies of NEPA and for the enforcement of applicable special purpose laws to include the Endangered Species Act (16 USC Section 1531, et seq).

If the Mammoth Yosemite Airport is included in the Bi-State District Population Segment of Greater Sage Grouse critical habitat as currently proposed, the FAA, as the lead federal environmental agency, will be required to consult with the U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service (FWS) for all Airport surface disturbances within designated critical habitat. Generally, as with other airports that have been designated critical habitat for other species, this means that all activities, including routine maintenance and minor construction, such as replacing a buried electrical cable, are subject to consultation between the FAA and FWS, preparation of a Biological Assessment (BA), preparation of a Biological Opinion (BO) and preparation of a NEPA compliance document.

Furthermore, because of the way the FAA funds airport projects (federal actions), it is not always possible to foresee all future projects which should be included in the BA/BO process. Additionally,

Page 44 of 229 ends

the FAA defines near-term projects as 3 to 5 years and long-term projects as having horizons greater than 5 years; but will only approve funding for near-term projects. Therefore, any long-term projects would require additional consultation between federal agencies per ESA Section 7. The consultation process is time consuming and financially burdensome for the Town and for the FAA which typically funds a significant portion of all environmental permitting.

Since the FAA remains obligated to enforce the ESA, withdrawal of the Mammoth Yosemite Airport from the Bi-State Distinct Population Segment of Greater Sage Grouse critical habitat designation does not threaten the species population. Withdrawal provides management options and eliminates the potential for perpetual consultation between the FAA and FWS.

Therefore, the Town of Mammoth Lakes requests that Mammoth Yosemite Airport, a 263-acre area as shown on Exhibit B, be withdrawn from the Bi-State Distinct Population Segment of Greater Sage Grouse because it presents an economic and management hardship on the Town and because the species will remain protected under ESA as administered by the FAA and the FWS.

The Town and the FAA will continue to cooperate with the FWS to protect the Greater Sage Grouse in such a way that it meets the requirements of the ESA and provides for the continued safe operations of the Mammoth Yosemite Airport.

Agenda Action Sheet
Title: Authorize the Town Manager to execute an agreement with American Sports Construction, Inc. for synthetic turf repair at the Whitmore Track and Sports Field and the installation of a Synthetic Turf Area at Mammoth Creek Park in the amount of $41,970.

Council Meeting Date: 7/3/2024
Prepared by: Stuart Brown, Parks and Recreation Director Recommended Motion: Authorize the Town Manager to execute an agreement with American Sports Construction, Inc. for synthetic turf repair at the Whitmore Track and Sports Field and the installation of a Synthetic Turf Area at Mammoth Creek Park in the amount of $41,970 subject to review by the Town Attorney.

Summary: This Agreement incorporates the renovation of the synthetic turf at the Whitmore Track and Sports Field located at 575 Benton Crossing Road and the installation of a synthetic turf area at Mammoth Creek Park, located at 686 Old Mammoth Road. Since opening in 2012, no major rehabilitation work has been conducted on the synthetic turf. The typical life span of the turf field is 8-10 years, so while we have been able to extend this time period by a few years, this scope of work will ensure this facility is well maintained, safe and accessible for all users in the coming years.

The contractor’s scope of work includes the assessment of the Whitmore synthetic turf field and will repair inlays up to 200 linear feet, including the installation of approximately 1,760 square feet of MaxPlay synthetic turf at Mammoth Creek Park adjacent to the playground and CRC deck.

Funding for this agreement was allocated by Town Councl on May 15, 2024, as part of the FY 2023/24 Third-Quarter budget amendment in the amount of $100,000. Additional funding was allocated by Town Council for the renovation of Mammoth Creek Park.

The Agreement is made through the California Multiple Award Schedule (CMAS) under the Cooperative Purchasing Contract No. 4-23-05-1037 account. This California Multiple Award Schedule (CMAS) provides for the purchase, warranty, installation, maintenance, repair, removal, and disposal of playground and outdoor fitness equipment, site accessories, surfacing, and related products and services. The Department of General Services (DGS) Procurement Division (PD) provides innovative purchasing methods to meet the needs of any California governmental entity (state, city, county, district, or other local governmental body or corporation including the California State Universities (CSU) and University of California (UC) systems, K-12 schools and community colleges) empowered to expend public funds to utilize designated State contracts, per Public Contract Code Section 10298, et. seq. This law allows entities described above to leverage the State's buying power and purchase directly from suppliers through existing contracts and agreements, without further competitive bidding. The work described in the attached Agreement is planned to be completed this summer.

1 TOWN COUNCIL STAFF REPORT
Title: Award Construction Contract for the Town of Mammoth Lakes New Civic Center.

Meeting Date: July 3, 2024
Prepared by: Haislip Hayes, PE Public Works Director
Amy Callanan, PE Engineering Manager
Rob Patterson, Town Manager
RECOMMENDATION:

Staff recommends Town Council:
 Approve the Plans and Specifications.
 Award the base bid contract to the lowest responsive bidder, AMG and Associates, Inc. in the amount of $26,979,000.00.
 Authorize the Public Works Director to execute the construction contract and accept the project upon completion.
 Authorize the Public Works Director to review and approve minor revisions to complete the project, up to an additional 10% of the award amount.

BACKGROUND:

In June of 2022 the Town Council awarded a design contract to HMC Architects for the Town of Mammoth Lakes New Civic Center (Town Hall). Subsequently the design team has worked with Staff to develop the plans and specifications. In February of 2024 Town Manager Dan Holler proposed a financing plan for completion of the new Town Hall. Since then, staff have worked in parallel tracks to complete the project plans and advance the financing package. Town Staff and its consultants have provided updates over the last few months to address specific aspects of the project. These updates included a design update at the joint Town Council and Board of Supervisors meeting and a bond financing update from our consultant just a few weeks ago. Staff planned to have a firm construction number in advance of the bond sale to have certainty in the viability of the project. This required scheduling the bid opening with enough time for leadership to make any changes or difficult decisions. Staff presented the final construction costs and financing plan at the June 19th Town Council meeting.

Page 67 of 229 ends

2 ANALYSIS:

Staff solicited bids for the construction of the project beginning April 30, 2024. Bids were publicly opened on May 30, 2024, at 2:00 PM. Three (3) bids were received with pricing as follows:

AMG & Associates, Inc. Base Bid: $26,979,000
Bobo Construction, Inc. Base Bid: $27,514,231
Broward Builders, Inc. Base Bid: $30,041,000
A bid review was completed, and no irregularities were identified.

FINANCIAL CONSIDERATIONS:

The construction phase of the project reported last meeting is projected to be about $29.5M broken down as follows.

Construction Contract $26,979,000
Construction Contingency $2,000,000
Materials Testing $200,000
Architecture and Engineering Support $300,000
Building and Other Fees $65,000
It was reported to Council at the June 19th meeting that the current financing plan does not include some soft costs for interior improvements such as furniture for the council chamber and the modular office furniture. These costs are generally understood, and funds will be set aside from one-time revenues while construction occurs. It should be mentioned that these costs could be covered with existing capital reserves and completion of the project as envisioned is not dependent on future one-time revenues.

The $29.5M construction costs will be funded by $27M in bond proceeds and $2.5M in cash from the resources identified below:

1 TOWN COUNCIL STAFF REPORT
Title: Authorize the Town Manager to execute a contract with Pivot Interiors, Inc. for an amount not to exceed $400,000 for the completion of the Community Recreation Center (CRC) offices and locker/meeting room spaces.

Meeting Date: July 3, 2024
Prepared by: Haislip Hayes, PE Public Works Director
Stuart Brown, Park and Recreation Director
RECOMMENDATION:

Staff recommends Town Council authorize the Town Manager to execute a contract with Pivot Interiors, Inc. for an amount not to exceed $400,000 for the completion of the Community Recreation Center (CRC) offices and locker/meeting room spaces.

BACKGROUND:

The Town of Mammoth Lakes worked for several years to deliver a year-round Community Recreation Center at Mammoth Creek Park West for the residents and visitors of Mammoth Lakes. The type of facility changed a few times during development; however, the goals, objectives, and vision for the Community Recreation Center at Mammoth Creek Park remained the same. In its first winter season of operation (2023/24), the facility exceeded all expectations and provided an incredible recreation amenity to the community. The final design and direction of the CRC resulted in a fabric tensile structure enclosing an Olympic size ice rink that operates from October to April, and in the summer, durable sport court tiles cover the rink area creating the 20,000 sq. foot Mammoth RecZone. Combined with community driven and professionally branded programming, the year-round community recreation center is a recreation destination that the entire community and our many visitors to Mammoth Lakes enjoy. During development the Town Council approved budget drove much of the design decisions and in order to deliver the project, many concessions needed to be made. These concessions included value engineering out a number of operational interior elements of the project that now need to be constructed within the facility.

ANALYSIS:

In response to the desire to fully build out the project, Town Council set aside funding to complete additional phases of the Community Recreation Center and Mammoth Creek Park. $1.05M was set aside to complete Phase II improvements with $500,000 allocated to complete exterior park improvements. Staff is working with HMC Architects on a plan to provide for the Phase II interior elements. Phase II includes nearly 10,000SF of durable rubber flooring, staff offices, an additional locker/meeting room, mechanical enclosure roofing, exterior signage, and bleachers on top of the existing locker rooms. In order to

Page 69 of 229 ends

2 provide these vastly different improvements in a cost-effective manner, staff separated the work into separate work programs. The Town Council approved a contract for the flooring at the 6/19/24 Council meeting. This work is anticipated to start in late July. A bid will be published for the roofing, bleachers, and signage in the upcoming weeks. Similar to the Town Hall project, staff determined that a modular system would be most appropriate for the staff offices in the CRC. Staff engaged Pivot Interiors, Inc. through HMC Architects to evaluate the potential for a modular office and locker room solution. It was determined that this solution would provide the flexibility to make changes in the future and provide the look and durability needed in the facility. Staff recommends contracting with Pivot Interiors, Inc., as it provides the opportunity for the Town to evaluate the process, materials and functionality in a smaller scale before a much larger installation at the Town Hall. The final scope of the system includes three staff offices, one of which will host a public counter for recreation programming and a locker room that will provide additional capacity for coed sports, meetings, and other uses. If approved, installation would be programed to be completed after the flooring is installed but before this winter season. The value of this contract shall not exceed $400,000.

FINANCIAL CONSIDERATIONS:

The Town Council set aside a total of $1.05M to support the development and construction of the Phase II improvements. $350,000 in one time funding was set aside in fiscal years, 23/24, 22/23, and 20/21. Currently, the project is fully funded.

Mammoth Lakes Town Council
Agenda Action Sheet
Title: Approve the resolution adopting a Records Retention Schedule and authorizing destruction of certain Town records.

Council Meeting Date: 7/3/24
Prepared by: Jamie Gray, Town Clerk
Recommended Motion: Approve the resolution adopting a Records Retention Schedule and authorizing destruction of certain Town records.

Summary:

The Town is upgrading its records management program, including its records retention policies.

The adoption of this retention schedule will result in efficiency gains and cost savings.

The Town Clerk selected Gladwell Governmental Services, Inc., an expert in local government records, to upgrade its records management program. An upgrade in the existing program was necessary to reduce current and future records storage costs, eliminate duplication of effort, increase efficiency, and take advantage of current technology and changes in law.

The upgrade of the current records management systems is driven by many factors, including:
 Very limited space in Town facilities.
 Many departments are filing and storing copies of the same records.  The Town produces and manages many permanent records.  Escalating records storage expenses.
 Technology advancements.
 Changes in law.

The purpose of the program is to apply efficient and economical methods to the creation, utilization, maintenance, retention, preservation, and disposal of all records managed by the Town. The retention periods are in compliance with all laws and are standard business practice for California cities.

The new retention schedules were written interactively with representatives from all departments participating in the project. They provide clear, specific records descriptions and retention periods, and apply current law and technology to the management of Town records.

The attached Resolution authorizes the routine destruction of records that have exceeded their adopted retention period, which is provided in Section 2 of the resolution. This will reduce costs and improve efficiency for the Town. It is standard business practice for California cities to authorize updates to the schedule without further action of the Town Council, which is provided in Section 3.

HOW TO USE RETENTION SCHEDULES
©1995-2024 Gladwell Governmental Services, Inc. (909) 337-3516 - all rights reserved Do not duplicate or distribute without prior written permission A legend explaining the information presented in the retention schedule; please read this for an explanation of every column.

The specified retention period applies regardless of the media of the record: If a record is stored on paper and electronic format (a computer file on a hard drive), all electronic and paper records should be destroyed (or deleted / erased) after the specified period of time has elapsed and authorization to destroy has been obtained.

Copies or duplicates of records should never be retained longer than the prescribed period for the official (original) record, and drafts and copies should be destroyed as soon as they are no longer required.

The term “records” shall include documents, instructions, books, microforms, electronic files, magnetic tape, optical media, or papers as defined by the California Public Records Act.

STRUCTURE: TOWN-WIDE, DEPARTMENTS & DIVISIONS
The Town-wide retention schedule includes those records all departments have in common (letters, memorandums, purchase orders, etc.). These records are NOT repeated in the Department retention schedule, unless that department is the Office of Record, and therefore responsible for maintaining the official (original)l record for the prescribed length of time.

Each department has a separate retention schedule that describes the records that are unique to their department, or for which they are the Office of Record. Where appropriate, the department retention schedules are organized by Division within that Department. If a record is not listed in your department retention schedule, refer to the Town-wide retention schedule. An index will be provided for your reference.

BENEFITS
This retention schedule has been developed by Diane R. Gladwell, MMC, an expert in Municipal Government records, and will provide the Town with the following benefits:
• Reduce administrative expenses, expedite procedures
• Free filing cabinet and office space
• Reduce the cost of records storage
• Eliminate duplication of effort within the Town
• Find records faster
• Easier purging of file folders
• Determine what media should be used to store records
For questions, please contact the Town Clerk.

AUTHORIZATION TO DESTROY RECORDS:

Destruction of an official (original) record that has exceeded its retention period must be authorized according to Town Policies & Procedures prior to destroying it. • If there is a minimum retention (“Minimum 2 years"), destruction of the document must be authorized before it is destroyed, as it is an official (original) record.

Copies, drafts, notes and non-records do NOT require authorization, and can be destroyed “When No Longer Required.”
• If there is NOT a minimum retention ("When No Longer Required"), it does NOT need to be authorized prior to destruction, as it is a preliminary draft / transitory record or a copy.

On every page of the schedules (near the top, just under the column headings) are important instructions, including instructions regarding holds on destroying records. “Litigation, complaints, claims, public records act requests, audits and/or investigations suspend normal retention periods (retention resumes after settlement or resolution).”Page 74 of 229

Title: Authorize a professional services agreement with TRB and Associates for building inspection, plan check, and related services.

Meeting Date: July 3, 2024
Prepared by: Tom Perry, Building Official
RECOMMENDATION:

Authorize a professional services agreement with TRB and Associates for building inspection, plan check, and related services as shown in Exhibit A of the agreement.

BACKGROUND/ANALYSIS:

Over the past 20 years, the Town has utilized outside plan check and inspection services to assist staff. The use of outside agencies is dependent on the varying level of development intensity here in the Town. The Town currently employs one (1) full-time building inspector and due to the current high level of development activity, and the expectation for the high level of activity to continue, there is a need for additional building inspector support. The proposed contract with TRB and Associates will provide for one (1) contract inspector to be available 40 hours per week through the end of December 2024, which aligns with the typical slow-down of the building season and the 1,000-hour cap on parttime/contract employees.

Staff will be recruiting an additional full-time building inspector in spring 2025.

The contract also allows the Town to use TRB and Associates for outside plan review, as needed. The Town has existing contracts with three other outside plan review firms and would only minimally use TRB and Associates for plan review.

FINANCIAL CONSIDERATIONS:

Building plan check and inspection services will be paid for using a portion of the building plan check fee paid by the applicant. Municipal Code Section 3.20.290.A.5 requires that contracts that exceed $50,000 be approved by Town Council. It is expected that the contract with TRB and Associates will exceed $50,000 (estimated amount of $107,000 based on the billing rate and the expected workload) and are therefore requesting the Council approve the contract for an exceedance of the $50,000 threshold.

LEGAL CONSIDERATIONS:

The Town Attorney has reviewed the attached consulting agreement.

1 TOWN COUNCIL STAFF REPORT
Title: Approve a professional services agreement with Placemate to implement and manage the Lease to Locals program.

Meeting Date: July 3, 2024
Prepared by: Nolan Bobroff, Community and Economic Development Director RECOMMENDATION:

Approve a professional services agreement with Placemate to implement and manage the Lease to Locals program
BACKGROUND:

The Lease to Locals program aims to connect tenants with property owners who wish to lease their property on a seasonal (5-11 months) to long-term (12+ months) basis in exchange for a financial subsidy from the Town that is in addition to the rental revenue that the owner will collect.

An overview of the program was presented to the Town Council in May and June 2024, and Town Council directed staff to return with a contract at a future meeting.1 The total year-1 cost of the program is estimated to be $425,000, of which $320,000 will be used for subsidies that are paid directly to the property owners and $105,000 will be paid to Placemate for the administration, implementation, and marketing of the program.

Upon a funding recommendation from Placemate for an approved unit, the Town will issue 50% of the subsidy payment directly to the property owner upon verification that the tenants have moved-in and then will issue the remaining 50% of the subsidy payment at the end of the lease. Property owners can only receive a subsidy one-time per property.

Staff continue to work with Placemate to refine the program guidelines and anticipate bringing back the guidelines for approval at the July 17, 2024 Town Council meeting.

Placemate would then be in a position to launch the program shortly thereafter.

FINANCIAL CONSIDERATIONS:

The Town Council set aside $450,000 for the program during the FY 23/24 – 2nd Quarter budget presentation. This funding will cover the initial year of operating the program.

LEGAL CONSIDERATIONS:

The Town Attorney has reviewed the attached agreement and will work with staff and Plaemate to finalize the agreement.
