other rinks and programs around CA and NV with

A-League Hockey
The original outdoor hockey league and the
backbone of our hockey community. A-League
not only know the game, but now has a number
of participants refereeing, mentoring, and
coaching our newest players; helping them
develop their skills and bridging the gap between
our newest and our most experienced players.

B-League Hockey
We continue to grow as the community finds their
new evening activity and community at LA Kings
Ice. Thanks to our beginner clinics (like the ones we
held this fall and are in the middle of running this
winter), we continue to serve the community in
providing a welcoming environment to learn a new
lifetime sport as well as grow our community.
"I moved here 2 months ago after living in San Diego
for the past 10 years. I've never felt so at home in a
community from day one."

C
-League Hockey
Another sold out clinic! Now our Learn To Play

new in a safe and instructional environment. C-League is new this winter and will be a huge help as we create space for new players to learn the game of
hockey at an appropriate and safe pace. We also
have A-League hockey players coaching and
mentoring these C-League players.
"I just wanted to pass along that I thought tonight's
session was one of the better 'learn to' sessions I have attended through the Town. I thought it had a good
level of instruction for us beginners rather than
rushing us too quickly given our beginner skill
levels. Thank you!"

1 TOWN COUNCIL STAFF REPORT
Title: Authorize the Agreement for Construction Management Services for the Airport Multipurpose Building Phase 1 Site Work.

Meeting Date: January 21, 2026
Prepared by: Sierra Waugh, Deputy Airport Manager
RECOMMENDATION:

Authorize the agreement with Brandley Engineering, Inc. for engineering design services during construction, construction management, and project closeout for the Multipurpose Building Phase 1 Site Work at Mammoth Yosemite Airport in the amount not to exceed $313,000.

BACKGROUND:

A priority project on the Airport Capital Improvement Program (ACIP) is a Multipurpose Building to include Aircraft Rescue Firefighting (ARFF) and Snow Removal Equipment.

For Federal Aviation Administration (FAA) funding purposes, this project has been phased over multiple years. The previous phases that have been completed are relocation and upgrade of the Automated Weather Observation System (AWOS) and two iterations of building design.

The current phase of the project that is moving forward is the Multipurpose Building Phase 1 Site Work including construction of the access road, installation of a vehicular gate, and relocation of Taxiway connector A3. The project was bid and awarded on August 6, 2025, with construction proposed to begin in the spring of 2026. This contract being recommended for authorization is for the engineering services during construction and construction management for the site work project.

ANALYSIS:

Brandley Engineering Inc. has been performing construction management services and grant assistance for Mammoth Yosemite Airport for many years. Staff issued a Request for Qualifications for engineering and architectural services, to include construction management support at the Airport, in June of 2023 and after reviewing Statement of Qualifications and conducting interviews, Brandley Engineering, Inc., along with one other firm, was selected to provide on-call engineering services as needed for the following five years.

The proposed contract scope of work includes four areas of focus, including project formulation and setting Disadvantaged Business Enterprise (DBE) goal calculations, repackaging plans and specifications for bidding, engineering during construction and final project closeout, and providing resident engineering, testing and inspections.

2 FINANCIAL CONSIDERATIONS:

Two Airport Improvement Program (AIP) grants were received from the Federal Aviation Administration (FAA) for this project. Grants number 3-06-0146-056-2025 and 3-06- 0146-057-2025, totaling $2,061,381, provide sufficient funding to cover the cost of this proposed construction management contract, as well as the project construction, and Town administrative expenses.

Mammoth Lakes Town Council
Agenda Action Sheet
Title: Approval to Continue Emergency Installation of Aboveground Waste Oil Tank at 299 Commerce Dr
Council Meeting Date: 1/21/2026
Prepared by: Riley Griesenbeck, Facilities & Asset Manager Recommended Motion: Approve findings to continue the authorized emergency installation of an aboveground waste oil tank as provided for in Resolution 25-48. This action requires a 4/5ths vote.

Summary: At the Town Yard, located at 299 Commerce Drive, the Town operates an underground waste oil storage tank. This tank is currently out of compliance with numerous sections of the California State Health and Safety Code. Staff were notified about these violations by the Mono County Office of Environmental Health on December 9th, 2024, which listed a total of six (6) class 2 violations associated with this tank. The Town, in discussions with Mono County Office of Environmental Health and contractors, determined that the best solution to remedy the violations and maintain the high level of service at the mechanic yard is to install an indoor, above-ground waste oil storage tank and decommission the existing underground tank. On July 16th, 2025, the Council adopted Resolution 25-48 authorizing the emergency installation of this aboveground waste oil tank and temporary decommissioning of the current, out of compliance, underground waste oil storage tank through the procurement of the necessary materials, equipment, and services for the scope of work without a competitive bidding process. On July 17th, 2025, the Contractor’s contract was executed and the materials needed for this replacement were ordered.

The Contractor began work on December 8th and completed the installation of the above-ground waste oil storage tank, pump stations in three bays, and all conduits, pipes, and reels. This work was completed on December 19th. The only remaining work in this contract is the triple-rinse and decommissioning of the existing, out of compliance, below-ground waste oil tank. This work is expected to be completed after that tank has been emptied next week. The need for the work authorized by Resolution 25-48 continues to be necessary. A copy of the resolution is attached here for reference.

1 TOWN COUNCIL STAFF REPORT
Title: Accept the Project Closeout Report for the 2025 Road & MUP Rehabilitation Project
Meeting Date: January 21, 2026
Prepared by: Matthew Freedman, PE, Associate Civil Engineer Amy Callanan, PE, Engineering Manager
RECOMMENDATION:

Staff recommend Town Council accept the project closeout report for 2025 Road & MUP Rehabilitation project.

BACKGROUND:

Every year Town Staff completes road condition assessments of streets and multi-use paths (MUPs) throughout Town. The assessments are entered into an asset management software program known as Street Saver. Street Saver then produces results showing which roads have a high or low PCI (Pavement Condition Index). Staff use the software to run various reports and scenarios based on both PCI and available funds to prioritize which streets are the highest priority and need to receive maintenance. This data is validated in the field in consultation with the Public Works Road Maintenance team. In the coming years, Staff expect to see a significant amount of road trenching and directional boring in support of the Golden State Connect fiber project. Staff are not recommending large reconstruction projects currently as the impacts to the road network by this project are not fully understood. With this future project in mind Staff developed a plan to address several deficiencies that have minimal risk of being disturbed by the upcoming project.

The plan is to correct/fix rough intersections, MUPs and targeted shorter stretches of roads. During the Fall of 2024, staff went through this process to develop the possible scope of work for this project, which has ultimately resulted in various segments of roads and MUPs being selected for maintenance based on the amount of funding available. The project scope of work recommended for contract award includes reconstruction of the following streets and MUPs (also shown in the attached map):
 Panorama Drive & Ridge Way
 Majestic Pines Drive & Valley Vista Drive
 Lakeview Boulevard – from Lakeview Road to 360 feet West  Forest Trail from Convict Drive to Rainbow Lane
 Forest Trail & Grindelwald Road
 Forest Trail & Holiday Way
 Town Yard Work
 Multi-use Paths
o Mammoth Creek Park East MUP

2 o Eagle to Waterford MUP
o Meridian Boulevard (Northside) MUP
o Sawmill Cutoff MUP
o Shady Rest MUP
 Alternate 1 – Raise MCWD Utility Covers
Although the project was bid with a few alternates, only the base bid and Alternate 1 were awarded and completed. The alternate road segments will remain in consideration for future treatments.

PROJECT LOCATION:

FINANCIAL CONSIDERATIONS:

The engineer’s estimate for the project base bid was $2,800,000 and the Town received 2 bids. At the Town Council meeting on May 21, 2025, the contract for the low responsive base bid plus Alternate 1 was awarded to Qualcon Contractors, Inc. for $3,027,014. During construction, some minor changes to actual quantities constructed resulted in a final construction contract amount of

3 $3,183,377.75. Other minor project expenses in the amount of $22,148.31, plus a reimbursement from Mammoth Community Water District for raising utility lids in the amount of $75,200.00, brought the total project cost to $3,153,326.06.

Project Expenses Amount
Final Construction Contract $ 3,183,377.75
Other Expenses $ 22,148.31
MCWD Reimbursement ($ 75,200.00)
Total Project Cost $ 3,130,326.06
The construction contract was fully funded at the time of award from a variety of funding sources, in conjunction with the Town’s concurrent Slurry and Fog Seal 2025 project and Miscellaneous Concrete and Facility Work project. The full original construction contract amount of $3,027,014 was allocated to the Road and MUP Rehab project, and a combined 3-project 10% contingency in the amount of $417,256.30 was made available for use across the 3 projects.

While this project’s total cost exceeded the original estimate and contract amount, final cost came in within the estimated 10% contingency that was allocated. The Slurry project utilized $50,863.65 of the contingency, leaving $366,392.65 available for the Road Rehab and Misc Concrete projects (Refer to Slurry project closeout report dated October 15, 2025).

Original Construction Contract allocation $3,027,014.00 Total Project Cost $ 3,130,326.06
3-project Contingency allocation $ 417,256.30
Contingency Used – Slurry ($ 50,863.65)
Contingency Used – Road Rehab ($ 103,312.06)
Contingency Still Available $ 263,080.59
The $263,080.59 of unused 3-project contingency will remain available for use by the Misc Concrete project.

Mammoth Lakes Town Council
Agenda Action Sheet
Title: Consider approval of the second amendment to the Mammoth Lakes Housing, Inc. professional services agreement to extend the term of the agreement to June 30, 2026 Council Meeting Date: 1/21/2026
Prepared by: Nolan Bobroff, Community & Economic Development Director Rob Patterson, Town Manager
Recommended Motion: Approve the Second Amendment to the Professional Services Agreement with Mammoth Lakes Housing, Inc. to extend the term of the agreement to June 30, 2026.

Summary: The agreement with Mammoth Lakes Housing, Inc. (MLH)1 was for the period of July 1, 2022 – June 30, 2025 and was subsequently extended via the ‘First Amendment to the Agreement’ for a six-month period running from July 1, 2025 – December 31, 2025. The original agreement and the First Amendment agreed to a payment of $84,000 per quarter for their services.

Town staff and MLH have been continuing discussions related to the terms of a new agreement but have not reached an agreement on service details or financial elements. In order to continue services while parties work through the contract negotiations, staff propose to extend the term of the agreement for an additional six months to June 30, 2026 pursuant to the same compensation terms (i.e., $84,000 per quarter) and scope of work as the previous agreement. The Town’s FY 25/26 budget included funds to cover the cost of the agreement at the current rate for the entire year ($336,000/year).

Staff and MLH will continue to meet and negotiate the terms of a new agreement during the extension period.

1 Mammoth Lakes Housing (MLH) is currently going through the process of changing their name to Eastern Sierra Community Housing (ESCH). However, since the current contract is with MLH, and not ESCH, the extension will continue to reference MLH.

SECOND AMENDMENT TO

PROFESSIONAL SERVICES AGREEMENT
PARTIES: This Second Amendment to Professional Services Agreement (“Second Amendment”), dated this 21st day of January, 2026 (“Effective Date”) and with retroactive effect to December 31, 2025, is entered into by and between Mammoth Lakes Housing, Inc., a California Nonprofit Public Benefit Corporation (“Contractor”) and the Town of Mammoth Lakes (“Town”) (collectively, the “Parties”) to amend the Professional Services Agreement between the Parties dated July 1, 2022 (“Agreement”), as amended via a First Amendment to Professional Services Agreement dated August 6, 2025 (“First Amendment”), as set forth below.

1 TOWN COUNCIL STAFF REPORT
Title: Authorize purchase of Hangar at Mammoth Yosemite Airport for storage of Town equipment.

Meeting Date: January 21, 2026
Prepared by: Rob Patterson, Town Manager
RECOMMENDATION:

Staff recommend the Town Council approve the purchase of Hangar F1 at Mammoth Yosemite Airport and authorize the Town Manager to execute a purchase and sale agreement for $375,000 to complete the purchase, pending final legal review.

BACKGROUND:

The Town of Mammoth Lakes has a need to store vehicles and materials in enclosed areas that are protected from the weather. To help address this need, the Town acquired hangar A5 at Mammoth Yosemite Airport in August 2025 that has 1,950sf of usable storage space and is located in an area of the Airport where the Town operates all ground leases. This facility has since been utilized to house Town equipment with a primary focus on equipment that supports Airport operations.

The availability of hangar space, that meets the needs of Town and is in a suitable location on Airport grounds, is a rare occurrence. The Town has had specific units identified based on their location, size and overall usability for Town purposes. A few days ago, unit F1 came on the market, and it is optimum for our needs. The hangar is 3,480 sf, is located on a Town-managed land lease, and is adjacent to the west entrance to the airfield near our existing leased space in FBO1 hangar. Staff reviewed the unit and discussed potential uses and determined that it would meet our needs for Airport operation and the potential to support other Town initiatives. The recommendation is to make an offer to acquire the unit.

ANALYSIS:

This new opportunity is a large hangar, approximately 3,480 sf, which is nearly double the size of the hangar purchased last summer (hangar A5) and would provide additional indoor parking for Airport equipment. Hangar A5 primarily houses Vactor truck, Sweepers, CMS boards and other equipment that can be used for Foreign Object Debris (FOD) removal efforts. The acquisition of F1, with larger internal dimensions, can be used to house Town snow removal equipment that currently does not fit into FBO1, our leased hangar. The need for the lease of FBO1 will eventually be replaced by the building of our multi-purpose building, all phases expected to be completed by 2028, depending upon grant funding.

The snow removal equipment that is not housed indoors takes much longer to prepare for and engage in clearing operations. Earlier this month, when temps were in single digits, it

2 took three hours to bring a snowblower online. Hangar F1 contains heating equipment that can be used to condition the space but may require some retrofit for insulation, which will be determined at a later date.

Staff have also identified other functions within Town operation that may benefit from this acquisition. There are a few pieces of equipment and many materials that are currently housed on our paved lot in the industrial park, across HWY 395 from the Airport, that can be relocated to the new hangar. With this relocation, staff will explore the possibility of leasing that space to a towing company to be used as an impound yard and temporary vehicle storage. That lot is paved and can legally store vehicles for a short period of time.

Any operation that utilized that space would be under contract with the Town for priority towing needs. Staff believe the ability to request towing will significantly enhance the effectiveness of our parking problems within Town. This process will clearly take time to develop as there are several specific requirements for the operation of an impound yard and setting up those elements, along with an approved fee schedule and requisite Municipal Code edits, will take a few months. Staff will also have to complete a request for proposal (RFP) for these services, to identify a partner to perform towing and operation of the impound yard. Ultimately all of this will take time, but these initial efforts will start the process and bring this closer to reality.

FINANCIAL CONSIDERATIONS:

Staff are recommending the use of a portion of funds available in Future Capital (Fund 980), which has an undesignated balance of more than $4M. These hangars are assets of the Town and are expected to appreciate in value based on current market conditions. These hangars may be sold in the future as needs change.
