Continued to July 19, 2022
Council Questions: Clarification on “project has the capacity”? did you mean water ? C larification, when you mentioned the v ernal Ponds testing, did you say it was limited to the city ? Will city be notified if testing will be done on t he vernal ponds? Are the developers frozen in time with 2 008 our rules and standards and are they exempt also from State laws, such as SB 9 or any others? If we were to pass our General Plan before this goes into effe ct would the developer still be in the 2008 mode to would they be exempt for the new standards? Will a traffic study be completed, and will it be done by the developer? Unlike The Dunes and Sea Haven, this property was never under FORA and had never been Government property , this was a pretty private land sale to now another private owner , correct? The affordable housing agreements are part of our general plan, and that's our only in o n this project that it's within the city's spirit influence , so they have to develop this according to this development agreement in our existing general plan, correct? Under the recitals of Exhibit A, #11, this development agreement there will be no othe r c ircumstances that would allow for modifi cation outside of these recitals, correct? With a possible recession coming giving them an extension to 203 6 would be sufficient buffer given what’s happened in the past, correct? This development agreement reads pretty much like the agreements we've had with th e Dune and Sa Haven projects, can we anticipate similar outcomes/issues that we ’ve ha d with the other two? What is the open-space acreage for the entire project? It is all open to the public? The conservation and easements would be part of the Sierra Club lawsuit that generated this outcome, correct? Can we ask in the amendment that the city receive copies of any monitoring and reports on the vernal ponds? If we do not grant an extension does this thi s project come to a halt ? Does a tentative map h ave an expiration date, or does it go forever? If we didn't approve the amendment , w hat would they do regarding the final tentative map? How many maps version are there? Why is it called Marine Station ? Where was this transit station to be located in the proje ct? So, if we wanted that area that's going to be redesigned as far as the uses residential 5 DRAFT MINUTES for City Council Meeting of Tuesday, June 21, 2022 Page 6
commercial retail and we approve everything tonight it seems like we lose a lot of leverage because we can't drastically alter what they propose to do ther e, correct? So, what we're seeing now has not been approved it hasn't been publicly digested , it’s a change from the marine station plan is that correct ? Can we see a digestible easy to understand map of t he approved park locations and distribution versus the current proposed post Sierra Club settlement distribution and locations of parks? What what's say will we have in the mix of for sale versus rental below market-rate? Has the planning Commission or the City Council ever digested and understood how the Sierra Club settlement agreement with the developers or the property owners back in 2008 impacted our vernal pools and what our give and take was? Have we ever, as a city understood and digested, how t hat settlement affected changed this project? When can we address evasive grass/weeds and the sand dunes ? Coastal access, with the plans today before us now, how do people get from Marina Station development, let's say residential to the coast to the roa d that goes under the highway across Lapis Road to the beach? Exhibit B, Section
2.4.7 Rent and Price Controls, last paragraph; if the city should pass a rent stabilization, or some form of rent control, it could never apply to this property , correct? Is the wording in that l ast paragraph negotiable? Are we limited to how many meeting s we can have between the Council and P lanning Commission to approve this? Is t here any rush that we have to address this, this evening? Is it possible to have the inclusionary homes built first?
Mayor opened the Public Hearing for Public Comments:
• Karen A ndersen – Commented on the developers ac cidently grading away environmentally sensitive plants and asked what are all of your plans to prevent this from happening with the vernal pools and anything else that's environmentally sensitive in this development? • Tommy Bolea – Asked if this was a Council meeting or a Planning Commission meeting due to the topics being discussed. Asked what is the percentage of renters in Marina? How many rentals will be included in this project? L ow income, low market housing agr eements were mentioned and asked how do those terms exactly work? Asked about the phasing of the development. • PK Diffenbaugh – Appreciates the level of scrutiny and review of that council is doing to ensure that this deve lopment is the right decision fo r the city of Marina .

• Denise Turley – Asked to hear from Karen Tiedemann on the RHNA numbers and how this project will affect them.
• Jeffrey Markham – Asked Council to take time to rev iew this proj ect and not take any action tonight.

Did not appreciate the tone the developer took with our City Council and our staff tonight.
• Paula Pelot – Commented on the different developments that have taken place over the last 25- years and the fact that new residents would like to have an input into future cha nges. Noted that with this amendment that now is the time to make changes and see if it conforms to the vision and the values of this city . You are within your rights, and it is your responsibility to ask these questions and to evaluate this project.
• Brian McCarthy – Would like to hear a more candid conversation from both the deve loper and the financial experts that might educate us on likely outcomes depending on if the economy does right or if the bottom falls out again like it did in 2 008. Asked for clarification on rent control provisions, little confusing. Questions council brought up are valid and should be discussed. 6 DRAFT MINUTES for City Council Meeting of Tuesday, June 21, 2022 Page 7

With the low barrier, I would assume that the ordinance doesn't require any kind of residency requirement or establishment of any kind , correct? W e've outlined a number of where this would be zoned in how it would work in with the surrounding commercial non-commercial uses.
Would this be the place where we would ask for location to schools or school programs, access to transportation, health care? Would that be appropriate in this kind of an ordinance?

b. City Council receive presentation on the long-term vision and fiscal sustainability, hangar and infrastructure needs and solutions, and potential financial support from the Military Assistance Program for the Marina Municipal Airport. Continued from June 7, 2022.
Council Questions: The overall plan for our airp ort, is it to be expansion into Jo by Manufacturing support? Is it to be transportation? Increased services to get into commercial carrier ? What is the ultimate goal here? How do they feel or what's the temperature of expanding our runway? what's defined as general aviation? Are we working with anybody to let her c ause be known? Has anybody successfully that we know of navigated this situation to Its benefit to get an expanded runway. Had we already received some fundings to extend the runway back in 2019-2022? Seems a lot of our pitch to the Faa and part of our vision is centered around our relationship with Job y, do we have things in writing and a guarantee from them about the proposed construction hangars ? Basically, we currently do not have any ki nd of guarantee or any kind of agreement for these buildings or other future visions for Joby, correct? When we seek funding through the map program, are we going to see 35 million over 5 years or some other number? UCMBEST put a lot of money in the str eets, curb gutter lighting Curb gutter lighting ? Can you describe tomorrow's meeting with U CMBEST and how that relates what their plans ar e for this area, and how their plans relate or link up with our plans ? If UCMBEST develop their property, would it b e for business par k and be in competition with our plans to develop our property? New residents or businesses complain about the airport t hat's been there longer than they have but if you start to make changes and increase the use it might cause problems so my question is, what does staff think about the order airport development and Marina Station development? Is it better that we develop our airport before Marina Station, or vice versa? Public Comments:
• Denise Turley – Asked if Joby was not going to o nly develop ing the planes here, but would possibly actually use the airport to start taking off and flying to other helipads then would they then be considered an airport proper use ? Would that also possibly en gender other things like businesses support businesses whatever?
6 MINUTES for City Council Meeting of Wednesday, July 6, 2022 Page 7
• Brian McCarthy – Supportive of continuing development of aviation uses at the Marina Airport but concerned about the level of maybe public input and i ndustry involvement in the discussion. Feels like direction is kind of being given as to the future of land uses at the airport and not enough. public involvement in the discussion. Would love to see more community input and workshops on this.
c. City Council continue discussion from April 19, 2022 , City Council meeting regarding unmet community facilities, infrastructure, public safety & staff ing needs and possibl e f unding options and stra tegies to address these needs an d provide direction to city staff.
Council Questions: Slide 3, property values – where did this data information come from? What other type of outreach will we do once we've received the information and have to make a decision ? Has there been instances in the past where surveys have told us voters/citizen have thought one way but we've been successful in passing things despite what the polls or surveys have told us ? So, the presentation that you've put forward we've seen these slides before and we had a discussion about maybe combining, would that save us money if we put the police and fire price into one building or put the community center police and the one buildin g, could we reduce that 53 down to something smaller?
Public Comments:
• Les Martin – Seems like a really important need and would support a bond even though it ’s an increase to the property tax bill.
• Brian McCarthy – Commented on a proposed state bill that would provide funding for a municipal water truck for a city kind of like ours that couldn't adequately protect some of this new housing stock that was coming online especially with the requirement to streamline. Asked if staff has looked into this and if not, can they? Commented on the survey and how it was conducted. Asked if staff is aware if the survey folks intentionally excluded anyone such as sitting Council members? • Denise Turley – Indicated that this was important thing for the city as it continues to grow and stretched thinner. Need to be able to provide better response times for emergenc y calls.
Commented on how the survey was conducted and be transparent. • Branson Kelsey – Agrees with previous speaker a bout the survey being completely transparent .
Asked who is funding this survey and w ho is doing the survey and was told it was classified.
Suggested that if any surveys are to be done full disclosu re of “who, what, where and when ” should be done. Better communication from the city if the form of leaflet s, or mailers should be done for items like these.
• Liesbeth Visscher – Think it's very important for Marina residents to know what the response times are currently for the firefighters and a second fire station and good response times it's can be a matter of life, or death.
Berkley/Delgado: that we bring this discussion back with a full recommendation on our next meeting which is the twelfth with a written -out bond measure, along wit h a draft bond measure along with survey results for us to review and decide upon.
Mayor Delgado asked for a friendly amendment, that we direct staff to bring us back some options.

Honorable Mayor and Members City Council Meeting
of the Marina City Council of July 19, 2022
CITY COUNCIL CONSIDER ADOPTING RESOLUTION 2022-,
RECOGNIZING A LOCAL EMERGENCY PERSISTS, RE -RATIFYING THE
PROCLAMATION OF A STATE OF EMERGENCY BY GOVERNOR
NEWSOM ON MARCH 4, 2020, AND RE -AUTHORIZING REMOTE
TELECONFERENCE MEETINGS OF THE CITY COUNCIL OF THE CITY OF MARINA AND ITS CONSTITUENT BODIES FOR THE PERIOD JULY 22, 2022, THROUGH AUGUST 20, 2022, PURSUANT TO BROWN ACT PROVISIONS.
REQUEST:
It is requested that the City Council consider:
1. Adopting Resolution No. 202 2-, regarding the Ralph M. Brown Act (California Government Code §§54950-54963, hereinafter the “Brown Act”) making certain findings; and authorizing the City to continue to implement remote teleconferenced public meetings of the City Council and its constituent bodies for the period July 22, 2022, through August 20, 2022.
BACKGROUND:
Government Code §54953(e) allows cities to continue to meet remotely during states of emergency proclaimed by the Governor under modified Brown Act requirements that are similar to but not identical to the rules and procedures established by the prior Executive Orders of Governor Newsom relating to the relaxation of certain Brown Act requirements during the COVID -19 pandemic.
Government Code §54953(e) authorizes local agencies to use teleconferencing without complying with teleconferencing requirement imposed by the Brown Act during a declared state of emergency when state or local health officials have imposed or recommended measures to promote social distancing during the proclaimed state of emergency or when the legislative body had determined by majority vote that meeting in person would present imminent risks to the health or safety of attendees.
At a special meeting held on October 5, 2021, the City Council adopted Resolutio n 2021-104 regarding the Brown Act making certain findings, and authorizing the City to implement remote teleconferenced public meetings of the City Council and its constituent bodies might be held without compliance with Government Code §54953(b)(3) for the period October 5, 2021 through November 4, 2021; subsequently on November 2, 2021, the Council adopted Resolution 2021 - 113 extending that period until December 2, 2021 ; on November 16, 2021, the Council adopted Resolution 2021-118 extending that period until December 16, 2021; on December 14, 2021, the Council adopted Resolution 2021-134 extending that period until January 13, 2022; and on January 11, 2022, the Council adopted Resolution 2022-02 extending that period to February 10, 2022; and on February 1, 2022, the Council adopted Resolution No. 2022 -13, extending that period until March 3, 2022; on March 1, 2022 Council adopted Resolution No. 2022-32, extending that period to March 31, 2022, on March 15, 2022 Resolution 2022-34; April 19, 2022 Resolution No. 2022- 48, and on May 17, 2022 adopted Resolution No. 2022-54; on June 21, 2022 Resolution No. 2022- 78 extending the period during which remote teleconferenced public meetings of the City Council and its constituent bodies might be held without compliance with Government Code §54953(b)(3) to July 21, 2022.
1 ANALYSIS:
On June 11, 2021, Governor Newsom issued Executive Order N-08-21 which among other things rescinded his prior Executive Order N -29-20 and set the date of October 1, 20 21, for public agencies to transition back to public meetings held in full compliance with the Brown Act.
As the Delta variants surged in California, the legislature took action to extend the COVID -19 exemptions to the Brown Act’s teleconference requirements, subject to some additional requirements. California and Monterey County are presently continuing to experience cases of the rapidly-spreading Omicron variant . Assembly Bill 361 amended Government Code §54953 and allowed a local agency to use teleconferencing in any of the following circumstances without complying with certain Brown Act provisions:
1. The legislative body holds a meeting during a proclaimed state of emergency, and state or local officials have imposed or recommended measures to promote social distancing.
2. The legislative body holds a meeting during a proclaimed state of emergency for the purpose of determining, by majority vote, whether as a result of the emergency, meeting in person would present imminent risks to the health or safety of attendees.
3. The legislative body holds a meeting during a proclaimed state of emergency and has determined, by majority vote taken at a meeting held for the purpose described in 2 above, that as a result of the emergency, meeting in person would present imminent risks to the health or safety of attendees.
A local agency that holds a meeting under any of these circumstances would be required to follow certain requirements listed in the attached Resolution , in addition to giving notice o f the meeting and posting agendas as required under the Brown Act. These additional requirements are intended to protect the public’s right to participate in the meetings of loc al agency legislative bodies. The City of Marina adheres to the listed requirements.
Government Code §54953(e)(3) provides that if the state of emergency remains active for more than 30 days, a local agency must make the following findings by majority vote every 30 days to continue using the exemption to the Brown Act teleconferencing requirements:
● The legislative body has reconsidered the circumstances of the emergency; and
● Either of the follow ing circumstances exist: the state of emergency continue to directly impact the ability of members to meet safely in person or State or local officials continue to impose or recommend social distancing measures.
The goal of Government Code §54953 as revis ed by AB 361 is to improve and enhance public access to local agency meetings during the COVID -19 pandemic and future applicable emergencies by allowing broader access through teleconferencing options. The current version of Government Code §54953 became effective on September 16, 2021, with a sunset of the present version on January 1, 2024.
FISCAL IMPACT:
None identified.
2 CONCLUSION:
This request is submitted for City Council consideration and possible adoption of a resolution proclaiming a local emergency persists, re -ratifying the proclamation of a state of emergency by Governor Newsom on March 4, 2020, and re-authorizing remote teleconference meetings of the City Council of the City of Marina and its constituent bodies for the period July 22, 2022, through August 20, 2022, pursuant to Brown Act provisions.
Respectfully submitted,

b) City reserves to itself all remedies available to it at law or in equity for breach of Developer’s obligations under this Agreement. City shall have the right, subject to this Section, to draw upon or utilize the appropriate security to mitigate City’s damages in the event of default by the Developer. The right of City to draw upon or utilize the security is additional to, and not in lieu of, any other remedy available to City. It is specifically recognized that the estimated costs and security amounts may not reflect the actual cost of construction or installation of the Improvements and, therefore, City’s damages for Developer’s default shall not exceed the cost of completing the Improvements. The sums provided by the security for the Improvements may be used by City for the completion of the Improvements in accordance with the Improvement Plans referenced herein.
c) In the event of Developer’s default under this Agreement, Developer authorizes City to perform such obligation sixty days after mailing written notice of default to Developer and to Developer’s surety, and agrees to pay the entire cost of such performance by City. City may take over the work and prosecute the same to completion by contract or by any other method City may deem advisable, for the account and at the expense of Developer, and Developer’s surety shall be liable to the City for any excess cost or damages occasioned City thereby, including but not limited to fees and charges of architects, engineers, attorneys, other professionals and court costs. In such event, City, without liability for doing so, may take possession of, and utilize in completing the work, such materials, appliances, plants and other property belonging to Developer as may be on the site of the work and necessary for performance of the work.
d) Failure of City to take an enforcement action with respect to a default, or to declare a breach, shall not be construed as a waiver of that default or breach or any subsequent default or breach of Developer.

Honorable Mayor and Members City Council Meeting
of the Marina City Council of July 19, 2022
CITY COUNCIL CONSIDER ADOPTING RESOLUTION NO. 2022-, APPROVING A
CONTRACT WITH RINCON CONSULTING AND VERONICA TAM CONSULTING
TO PROVIDE URBAN PLANNING SERVICES TO COMPLETE THE SIXTH CYCLE HOUSING ELEMENT FOR AN AMOUNT NOT TO EXCEED $300,000; AND
AUTHORIZE THE FINANCE DIRECTOR TO MAKE NECESSARY ACCOUNTING
AND BUDGETARY ENTRIES, AND AUTHORIZE THE CITY MANAGER TO
EXECUTE A CONTRACT AMENDM ENT ON BEHALF O F CITY WITH RINCON
CONSULTING AND VERONIC A TAM C ONSULTING SUBJECT TO FINAL REVIEW BY THE CITY ATTORNEY.
RECOMMENDATION: City Council consider
1. Adopt a Resolution No. 2022-, approving a contract with Rincon Consulting and Veronica Tam to provide urban planning services to complete the Sixth Cycle Housing Element for an amount not to exceed $300,000 (“EXHIBIT A”); and
2. Authorize the Finance Director to make necessary accounting and budgetary entries, and
3. Authorize the City Manager to execute a contract amendment on behalf of City with Rincon Consulting subject to final review by the City Attorney.
BACKGROUND:
Affordable Housing Overlay-Fourth and Fifth Cycle Housing Elements The Housing Element is the only chapter o f the General Plan that is mandated by t he St ate of California to be update d frequently. The update to the Housing Element is done based on cycles as determined by the California Department of Housing and Community Development (State HCD) and depending on wh ich Council of Government (COG) a city is located in. The City of Marina is in the Association of Bay Area Gove rnments (AMBAG COG). The Fourth Housing Element Cycle for the Association of Mont erey Bay Area Governments (4 th Cycle) ran from 2007 -2014 and the Fifth Cycle ran from 2014-2023. As the Council is aware, the City of Marina is several years past due in getting its Fifth Cy cle (5th) Housing Element certified by State HCD. The city agreed to increase the zoning within the Downtown Specific Plan to accommodate the Fifth Cycle housing allocation given to it by AMBAG.
On February 1 5, 2022 the City Council a warded a cont ract with Rincon Consult ing to modify the Downtown Specific Plan to reduce the subjective elements of the plan per recent changes to stat e law and to create an a ffordable h ousing overlay zone in order for the City to meet its ’ regional housing needs allocation for the Fifth (5th) Cycle. Rincon Consultant and city staff have been working o n the affordable housing overlay zone and will be bringing this policy before the City Coun cil in the next thirty to forty-five (30-45) days.1 In meetings with State HCD staff , they generally seemed supportive of the idea, so if the City Counc il were to adopt the policy in the near-term, Marina could be made whole for previous Housing Element cycles.
1 See the February 15, 2022 staff report for additional details about the Affordable Housing Overlay:
https://www.cityofmarina.org/AgendaCenter
1 Sixth Cycle Housing Element.
On a parallel track, while the city is seeking compliance with the previous RHNA cycles, work needs to begin in earnest on the Sixth Cycle Housing Element whic h all Monterey County c ities must finish by December 15, 2023. This is a timely proposal because of recent changes to State law that mand ate extended review periods including State HCD comment periods that total approximately one h alf of a year.2 If the City Counc il were to authorize awar d of the c ontract on Jul y 19, 2022 and city staff executes said contract by August 1 st, city staff are fairly confident the process can be completed by December of 2023. Below is Table 1 ( Sixth Cycle Housing Element Cycle) which sh ows the major milestones that must be met in order for the City to meet the project deadline.
In addition to the state review times identified in Table 1 above, this housing element cycle also mandates additional comment period from the public prior to Planning Commission and City C ouncil review (see AB 215), and an extensive amount of outreach to all economic segments of the community to ensure future h ousing policies affirm fair housing per AB 686. All told, these additional regulatory requirements mandate immediate action by the City of Marina.
FISCAL IMPACT:
The contract amount shall not exceed $300,000. This is proposed to be f unded from the Unallocated General Fund B alance. It should be n oted that lack of Housing Element compliance with the State of California has far greater fiscal implications for the City of Marina:
This is proposed to be funded from Unallocated General Fund Balance
2 The first time we submit the Housing Element to the State, HCD has 90 days to review the docu ment. The second time we submit the document they have 60 days to review so 150 days of the project schedule is already set and needs to be accounted for.

2 • Active Transportation Program ( ATP) Funds-Recently, the Marina Public Works Department was ineligible to file for two million dollars in ATP funds to up grade Imjin Parkway because the City does not have a certified Housing Element.
• Safe R outes to Scho ol Funds-The City d id not file for one million dollars in Safe Routes to School funds in 2021 due to not having a Housing Element.
• State Law Compliance -As part of AB 72 (2017 -2018) the Calif ornia Office of the Attorney General may be no tified that the Ci ty’s Housing Elemen t is out of compliance with Housing Element law, and the City may be subject to enforcement actions.
• Loss of Local Land Use Control s-The court s may suspend the lo cality’s a uthority to issue building permits or grant zoning changes, variances, or subdivision map approvals.
• Fees-If a jurisdiction faces a court action stemming from its lack of compliance and either loses or settles the case, it often must pay subs tantial atto rney fees to the plaintiff’s attorne ys in addition to the fees paid to its own attorneys. These fees can easily exceed $100,000.
CONCLUSION
In conclusion, city staff are recommending approval of this contract to meet the City’s long term Regional Housing Needs Allocation (RHNA) obligations

(a) During the performance of this Agreement the Contractor shall comply with the applicable nondiscrimination and affirmative action provisions of the laws of the United States of America, the State of California and the City.

Contractor shall give written notice of its obligations under this clause to labor organizations with which it has a collective bargaining or other agreement.
(b) Contractor shall include the nondiscrimination and compliance provisions of this Section in all subcontracts.
13. Indemnification.
(a) Other than in the performance of professional services by a design professional, which shall be solely as addressed by subsection (b) below, and to the full extent permitted by law, Contractor shall (1) immediately defend (with independent counsel reasonably acceptable to the City) and (2) indemnify the City, its Council, boards, commissions, employees, officials and agents ("Indemnified Parties" or in the singular "Indemnified Party") from and against all liabilities regardless of nature or type arising out of or resulting from Contractor’s performance of services under this contract, or any negligent or wrongful act or omission of the Contractor or Contractor’s officers, employees, agents or subcontractors. Liabilities subject to the duties to defend and indemnify include, without limitation, all claims, losses, damages, penalties, fines and judgments, associated investigation and administrative expenses; defense costs including but not limited to reasonable attorney’s fees; court costs; expert witness fees; and costs of alternate dispute resolution (“Liabilities”). The Contractor’s obligation to indemnify applies unless it is adjudicated that its liability was caused by the sole active negligence or sole willful misconduct of an indemnified party. If it is finally adjudicated that liability is caused by the comparative active negligence or willful misconduct of an Indemnified Party, the Contractor’s indemnification obligation shall be reduced in proportion to the established comparative liability of the Indemnified Party.
(b) To the fullest extent permitted by law (including without limitation California Civil Code Sections 2782.8), when the services to be provided under this Agreement by Contractor are design professional services to be performed by a design professional, as that term is defined under said section 2782.8, the design professional shall (1) immediately defend (with independent counsel reasonably acceptable to the City) and (2) indemnify the City and any Indemnified Party for all Liabilities regardless of nature or type that arise out of, pertain to, or relate to the 10 negligence, recklessness, or willful misconduct of design professional, or the acts or omissions of an officer, employee, agent or subcontractor of the design professional. The design professional’s obligation to indemnify applies unless it is finally adjudicated that the liability was caused by the sole active negligence or sole willful misconduct of an Indemnified Party. If it is finally adjudicated that liability is caused by the comparative active negligence or willful misconduct of an Indemnified Party, then design professional’s indemnification obligation shall be reduced in proportion to the established comparative liability of the Indemnified Party.
(c) All obligations under this section are to be paid by Contractor as incurred by City. The provisions of this Section are not limited by the provisions of sections relating to insurance including provisions of any worker's compensation act or similar act. Contractor expressly waives its statutory immunity under such statues or laws as to City, its employees and officials.
An allegation or determination of comparative active negligence or willful misconduct by an Indemnified Party does not relieve the Contractor from its separate and distinct obligation to defend the City. Contractor agrees to obtain executed indemnity agreements with provisions identical to those set forth here in this section from each and every subcontractor, sub tier contractor or any other person or entity involved by, for, with or on behalf of Contractor in the performance or subject matter of this Agreement. In the event Contractor fails to obtain such indemnity obligations from others as required here, Contractor agrees to be fully responsible according to the terms of this section. Failure of City to monitor compliance with these requirements imposes no additional obligations on City and will in no way act as a waiver of any rights hereunder.
(d) If any action or proceeding is brought against any Indemnified Party by reason of any of the matters against which the Contractor has agreed to defend the Indemnified Party, as provided above, Contractor, upon notice from the City, shall immediately defend any Indemnified Party at Contractor's expense by counsel reasonably acceptable to the City. An Indemnified Party need not have first paid for any of the matters to which it is entitled to indemnification in order to be so defended.
(e) The review, acceptance or approval of the Contractor’s work or work product by any Indemnified Party shall not affect, relieve or reduce the Contractor’s indemnification or defense obligations. This obligation to indemnify and defend City, as set forth herein, is binding on the successors, assigns, or heirs of Contractor and shall survive the completion of the services or the termination of this Agreement or this Section.
14. Insurance.
(a) As a condition precedent to the effectiveness of this Agreement and without limiting Contractor's indemnification of the City, Contractor agrees to obtain and maintain in full force and effect at its own expense the insurance policies set forth in Exhibit “C” “Insurance” attached hereto and made a part hereof. Contractor shall furnish the City with original certificates of insurance, manually autographed in ink by a person authorized by that insurer to bind coverage on its behalf, along with copies of all required endorsements. All certificates and endorsements must be received and approved by the City before any work commences. All insurance policies shall be subject to approval by the City Attorney and Risk Manager as to form and content.
Specifically, such insurance shall: (1) protect City as an additional insured for commercial general and business auto liability; (2) provide City at least thirty days written notice of cancellation, material reduction in coverage or reduction in limits and ten days written notice for non-payment of premium; and (3) be primary with respect to City's insurance program.
Contractor's insurance is not expected to respond to claims that may arise from the acts or omissions of the City.
11 (b) City reserves the right at any time during the term of this Agreement to change the amounts and types of insurance required herein by giving Contractor ninety days advance written notice of such change. If such change should result in substantial additional cost of the Contractor, City agrees to negotiate additional compensation proportional to the increased benefit to City.
(c) All required insurance must be submitted and approved the City Attorney and Risk Manager prior to the inception of any operations by Contractor.
(d) The required coverage and limits are subject to availability on the open market at reasonable cost as determined by the City. Non availability or non affordability must be documented by a letter from Contractor's insurance broker or agency indicating a good faith effort to place the required insurance and showing as a minimum the names of the insurance carriers and the declinations or quotations received from each. Within the foregoing constraints, Contractor's failure to procure or maintain required insurance during the entire term of this Agreement shall constitute a material breach of this Agreement under which City may immediately suspend or terminate this Agreement or, at its discretion, procure or renew such insurance to protect City's interests and pay any and all premium in connection therewith and recover all monies so paid from Contractor.
(e) By signing this Agreement, Contractor hereby certifies that it is aware of the provisions of Section 3700 et seq., of the Labor Code which require every employer to be insured against liability for Workers' Compensation or to undertake self -insurance in accordance with the provision of that Code, and that it will comply with such provisions at all such times as they may apply during the performance of the work pursuant to this Contract. Unless otherwise agreed, a waiver of subrogation in favor of the City is required.
15. Independent Contractor. The parties agree that Contractor, its officers, employees and agents, if any, shall be independent contractors with regard to the providing of services under this Agreement, and that Contractor's employees or agents shall not be considered to be employees or agents of the City for any purpose and will not be entitled to any of the benefits City provides for its employees. City shall make no deductions for payroll taxes or Social Security from amounts due Contractor for work or services provided under this Agreement.
16. Claims for Labor and Materials. Contractor shall promptly pay when due all amounts payable for labor and materials furnished in the performance of this Agreement, so as to prevent any lien or other claim under any provision of law from arising against any City property (including reports, documents, and other tangible matter produced by the Contractor hereunder), against the Contractor's rights to payments hereunder, or against the City, and shall pay all amounts due under the Unemployment Insurance Act with respect to such labor.
17. Discounts. Contractor agrees to offer the City any discount terms that are offered to its best customers for the goods and services to be provided herein, and apply such discounts to payment made under this Agreement which meet the discount terms.
18. Cooperation; Further Acts . The Parties shall fully cooperate with one another, and shall take any additional acts or sign any additional documents as may be necessary, appropriate or convenient to attain the purposes of this Agreement.
19. Dispute Resolution. If any dispute arises between the parties as to proper interpretation or application of this Agreement, the parties shall first meet and confer in a good faith attempt to resolve the matter between themselves. If the dispute is not resolved by meeting and conferring, the matter shall be submitted for formal mediation to a mediator selected mutually by the parties. 12 The expenses of such mediation shall be shared equally between the parties. If the dispute is not or cannot be resolved by mediation, the parties may mutually agree (but only as to those issues of the matter not resolved by mediation) to submit their dispute to arbitration. Before commencement of the arbitration, the parties may elect to have the arbitration proceed on an informal basis; however, if the parties are unable so to agree, then the arbitration shall be conducted in accordance with the rules of the American Arbitration Association. The decision of the arbitrator shall be bindin g, unless within thirty days after issuance of the arbitrator’s written decision, any party files an action in court. Venue and jurisdiction for any such action between the parties shall lie in the Superior Court for the County of Monterey.
20. Compliance with Laws.
(a) Each party's performance hereunder shall comply with all applicable laws of the United States of America, the State of California and the City including but not limited to laws regarding health and safety, labor and employment, wage and hours and licensing laws which affect employees.

Contractor shall furnish the City with original certificates of insurance, manually autographed in ink by a person authorized by that insurer to bind coverage on its behalf. All certificates and endorsements must be received and approved by the City before any work commences. The City reserves its right to require complete, certified copies of all required insurance policies at any time. The following coverage will be provided by Contractor and maintained on behalf of the City and in accordance with the requirements set forth herein.
Commercial General Liability (primary). Commercial general liability insurance covering Contractor's operations (and products where applicable) is required whenever the City is at risk of third party claims which may arise out of Contractor's work or presence on City premises.
Contractual liability coverage is a required inclusion in this insurance.
General liability insurance coverage shall be at least as broad as ISO form CG 00 01 10 01 and approved in advance by the City Attorney and Risk Manager. Total limits shall be no less than one million dollars ($1,000,000) combined single limit per occurrence for general liability, bodily injury, personal injury and property damage.

Contractor must give written notice to the City of any pending claim, action or lawsuit which has or may diminish the aggregate. If any such claim or lawsuit exists, Contractor shall be required, prior to commencing work under this Agreement, to restore the impaired aggregate or prove it has replacement insurance protection to the satisfaction of the City Attorney and Risk Manager.
City, its Council, boards and commissions, officers, employees, agents and volunteers shall be added as additional insured, and the policy shall be endorsed with a form equivalent to ISO form CG 20 10 10 93, that contains the provisions required by this contract. Coverage shall apply on a primary, non-contributing basis in relation to any other insurance or self-insurance, primary or excess, available to the City or any agent of City. Coverage is not expected to respond to the claims which may arise from the acts or omissions of the City. Coverage shall not be limited to the vicarious liability or supervisory role of any additional insured. Coverage shall contain no contractors' limitation endorsement. There shall be no endorsement or modification limiting the scope of coverage for liability arising from pollution, explosion, collapse, underground property damage or employment-related practices.

Coverage shall be following form to any underlying coverage.
Coverage shall be provided on a “pay on behalf” basis, with defense costs payable in addition to policy limits. There shall be no cross liability exclusion and no contractor's limitation endorsement. Policies limits shall be not less than one million dollars ($1,000,000) per occurrence and in the aggregate, above any limits required in the underlying policies shall have starting and ending dates concurrent with the underlying coverage.
40 Business Auto. Automobile liability insurance is required where vehicles are used in performing the work under this Agreement or where vehicles are driven off -road on City premises, it is not required for simple commuting unless City is paying mileage.

Coverage shall be endorsed to stated that the City, its Council, boards and commissions, officers, employees, agents and volunteers shall be added as additional insured with respect to the ownership, operation, maintenance, use, loading or unloading of any auto owned, leased, hired or borrowed by the Contractor or for which the Contractor is responsible with a form equivalent to ISO form CG 20 10 10 93. Limits shall be no less than one million dollars ($1,000,000) combined single limit per accident for bodily injury and property damage. Starting and ending dates shall be concurrent.

Property Insurance. Property insurance, in a form and amount approved by the City Attorney and Risk Manager, is required for Contractors having exclusive use of premises or equipment owned or controlled by the City. City is to be named a Loss Payee “As Its Interest May Appear” in property insurance in which the City has an interest, e.g., as a lien holder.

Design professionals shall maintain such insurance in place until the expiration of the warranty period of the Project.
Contractor and City further agree as follows:
a) This Exhibit supersedes all other sections and provisions of this Agreement to the extent that any other section or provision conflicts with or impairs the provisions of this Exhibit.
b) Nothing contained in this Exhibit is to be construed as affecting or altering the legal status of the parties to this Agreement. The insurance requirements set forth in this Exhibit are intended to be separate and distinct from any other provision in this Agreement and shall be interpreted as such.
41 c) All insurance coverage and limits provided pursuant to this Agreement shall apply to the full extent of the policies involved, available or applicable. Nothing contained in this Agreement or any other agreement relating to the City or its operations limits the application of such insurance coverage.
d) Requirements of specific coverage features or limits contained in this Exhibit are not intended as a limitation on coverage, limits or other requirements, or a waiver of any coverage normally provided by any insurance. Specific reference to a given coverage feature is for purposes of clarification only and is not intended by any party to be all inclusive, or to the exclusion of other coverage, or a waiver of any type.
e) For purposes of insurance coverage only, this Agreement will be deemed to have been executed immediately upon any party hereto taking any steps that can be deemed to be in furtherance of or toward performance of this Agreement.
f) All general or auto liability insurance coverage provided pursuant to this Agreement, or any other agreements pertaining to the performance of this Agreement, shall not prohibit Contractor, Contractor’s employees, or agents from waiving the right of subrogation prior to a loss. Contractor hereby waives all rights of subrogation against the City.
g) Contractor’s insurance shall be written by an acceptable insurance provided, as determined by the City, which satisfies the following minimum requirements: An insurance carried authorized and admitted to do business in the State of California and maintaining an agent for service of process within the state. Such insurance carrier shall maintain a current “A.M.
Best” rating classification of “A -“or better and a financial size of $10 million to $24 million (Class V) or better, or a Lloyds of London program provided by syndicates of Lloyds of London and other London insurance carriers, providing all participants are qualified to do business in California and the policy provides for an agent for process in the state. Self-insurance will not be considered to comply with these insurance specifications. Workers Compensation and Employer’s Liability shall be provided by an A-V rated carrier or by the California State Compensation Fund. If provided by a carrier other than California State Compensation Fund, Contractor shall provide proof of the carrier’s A-V rating to the City.
h) In the event any policy of insurance required under this Agreement does not comply with these requirements or is canceled and not replaced, City has the right but not the duty to obtain the insurance it deems necessary and any premium paid by City will be promptly reimbursed by Contractor.
i) Contractor agrees to provide evidence of the insurance required herein, satisfactory to City Attorney and Risk Manager, consisting of certificate(s) of insurance evidencing all of the coverages required and an additional endorsement to Contractor’s general liability and umbrella liability policies. Certificate(s) are to reflect that the insurer will provide at least thirty days written notice of cancellation, material reduction in coverage or reduction in limits and ten days written notice for non-payment of premium. Contractor agrees to require its insurer to modify such certificates to delete any exculpatory wording stating that failure of the insurer to mail written notice of cancellation imposes no obligation, and to delete the word “endeavor” with regard to any notice provisions. Contractor agrees to provide complete copies of policies to City within ten days of City's request for said copies.
42 j) Contractor shall provide proof that policies of insurance required herein expiring during the term of this Agreement have been renewed or replaced with other policies providing at least the same coverage. Such proof will be furnished at least two weeks prior to the expiration of the coverages. Any actual or alleged failure on the part of the City or any other additional insured under these requirements to obtain proof of insurance required under this Agreement in no way waives any right or remedy of City or any additional insured, in this or any other regard.
k) Contractor agrees to require all subcontractors or other parties hired for this Project to provide workers' compensation insurance as required herein and general liability insurance naming as additional insureds all parties to this Agreement. Contractor agrees to obtain certificates evidencing such coverage and make reasonable efforts to ensure that such coverage is provided as required here. Contractor agrees to require that no contract used by any subcontractor, or contracts Contractor enters into on behalf of City, will reserve the right to charge back to City the cost of insurance required by this Agreement. Contractor agrees that upon request, all agreements with subcontractors or others with whom Contractor contracts with on behalf of City will be submitted to City for review. Contractor acknowledges that such contracts or agreements may require modification if the insurance requiremen ts do not reflect the requirements herein. Failure of City to request copies of such agreements will not impose any liability on City, its Council, boards and commissions, officers, employees, agents and volunteers.
l) If Contractor is a Limited Liability Company, general liability coverage must be amended so that the Limited Liability Company and its Managers, Affiliates, employees, agents and other persons necessary or incidental to its operation are insureds.
m) Contractor agrees to provide immediate notice to City of any claim or loss against Contractor that includes City as a defendant. City assumes no obligation or liability by such notice, but has the right (but not the duty) to monitor the handling of any such claim or claims if they are likely to involve the City.
n) Coverage will not be limited to the specific location or individual entity designated as the address of the Project. Contractor agrees to have its coverage endorsed so that all coverage limits required pursuant to this requirement are available separately for each and every location at which Contractor conducts operations of any type on behalf of City. Contractor warrants that these limits will not be reduced or exhausted except for losses attributable to those specific locations and not by losses attributable to any other operations of Contractor.
o) Contractor agrees not to attempt to avoid its defense and indemnity obligations to City, its Council, boards and commissions, officers, employees, agents and volunteers by using as a defense Contractor's statutory immunity under workers' compensation or similar statutes.
r) Contractor agrees to ensure that coverage provided to meet these requirements is applicable separately to each insured and that there will be no cross liability exclusions that preclude coverage for suits between Contractor and City or between City and any other insured or Named Insured under the policy, or between City and any party associated with City or its employees.
s) Contractor shall maintain commercial general liability, and if necessary, commercial umbrella liability insurance, with a limit of not less than one million dollars ($1,000,000) each occurrence for at least three years following substantial completion of the work. 43 July 11, 2022 Item No. 8g(3)

REASONABLE ACCOMMODATION FOR PERSONS WITH DISABILITIES
Sections:
17.45.010 Purpose and applicability.
17.45.020 Application submittal.
17.45.030 Review authority.
17.45.040 Findings.
17.45.050 Decision.
17.45.060 Appeals.
17.45.070 Waiver of time periods.

17.45.090 Expiration, time extension, violation, discontinuance, and revocation.
17.45.110 Amendments.
17.45.010 Purpose and applicability.
A. This chapter provides a procedure to request reasonable accommodation for persons with disabilities seeking equal access to housing under the Fair Housing Laws in the application of zoning laws, building codes, and other land use regulations, policies and procedures. Fair Housing Laws means “Fair Housing Amendments Act of 1988” (42 U.S.C. § 3601 et seq.), including reasonable accommodation required by 42 U.S.C. § 3604(f)(3)(B), and the “California Fair Employment and Housing Act” (California Government Code Section 12900 et seq.), including reasonable accommodation required specifically by California Government Code Sections 12927(c)(1) and 12955(l), as any of these statutory provisions now exist or may be amended from time to time.
B. A request for reasonable accommodation may be made by any person with a disability, his/her representative, or any business or property owner when the application of a zoning law, building code provision or other land use regulation, policy or practice acts as a barrier to fair housing opportunities. A person with a disability is a person who has a physical or mental impairment that limits or substantially limits one or more major life activities, anyone who is regarded as having such impairment or anyone who has a record of such impairment, as those terms are defined in the Fair Housing Laws.
C. A request for reasonable accommodation may include a request for modification or exception to the rules, standards and practices for the siting, development and use of housing or housing related facilities that would eliminate regulatory barriers and provide a person with a disability equal opportunity to housing of their choice.
Requests for reasonable accommodation shall be made in the manner prescribed by this chapter.
D. It is the intent of this chapter that, notwithstanding time limits provided to perform specific functions, application review, decision making and appeals proceed expeditiously, especially where the request is time sensitive, so as to reduce impediments to equal access to housing.
3 17.45.020 Application submittal.
A. Any person with a disability, or his or her representative, may request reasonable accommodation on a form supplied by the community development department. The request shall include the following information, and be accompanied by a fee established by resolution of the city council:
1. The applicant’s or representative’s name, mailing address and daytime phone number.
2. The address of the property for which the request is being made.
3. The specific code section, regulation, procedure or policy of the city from which relief is sought.
4. A site plan or illustrative drawing showing the proposed accommodation.
5. An explanation of why the specified code section, regulation, procedure or policy is preventing, or will prevent, the applicant’s use and enjoyment of the subject property.
6. The basis for the claim that Fair Housing Laws apply to the individual(s) and evidence satisfactory to the city supporting the claim. Evidence may include a letter from a medical doctor or other licensed health care professional, a disabled license, or any other relevant evidence.
7. A detailed explanation as to why the accommodation is reasonable and necessary to afford the applicant an equal opportunity to use and enjoy a dwelling in the city.
8. Verification by the applicant that the property is the primary residence of the person(s) for whom reasonable accommodation is requested.
9. Other information required by the city to make the findings required by subsection (17.47.040) of this section consistent with the Fair Housing Laws.
B. A request for reasonable accommodation may be filed at any time the accommodation may be necessary to ensure equal access to housing. If the project for which the request for reasonable accommodation is being made also requires discretionary approval, the applicant shall provide required submittal information to the city together with the application for discretionary approval and shall pay all applicable fees. These materials shall enable the city to concurrently review the accommodation request and the discretionary approval request. Processing procedures for the discretionary approval request shall govern joint processing of both the reasonable accommodation and the discretionary permit.
C. Reasonable accommodation does not affect or negate an individual’s obligations to comply with other applicable regulations not at issue or related to the requested accommodation.
D. If an individual needs assistance in making the request for reasonable accommodation, the city shall provide assistance to ensure the process is accessible.
4 E. Should the request for reasonable accommodation be made concurrently with a discretionary permit, the fee for a reasonable accommodation application may be waived; provided, that the prescribed fee shall be paid for all other discretionary permits.
17.45.030 Review authority.
A. Applications for reasonable accommodation shall be reviewed by the community development director (director) when no approval is sought other than the request for reasonable accommodation.
B. Applications for reasonable accommodation submitted for concurrent review with any discretionary land use application shall be reviewed by the authority governing the discretionary land use application.
17.45.040 Findings. The review authority shall approve the request for a reasonable accommodation if, based upon all of the evidence presented, the following findings can be made:
A. The housing, which is the subject of the request for reasonable accommodation, will be occupied by an individual with disabilities protected under Fair Housing Laws.
B. The requested accommodation is reasonable and necessary to make housing available to an individual with disabilities protected under the Fair Housing Laws.
C. The requested accommodation will not impose an undue financial or administrative burden on the city, as defined in the Fair Housing Laws and interpretive case law.
D. The requested accommodation will not require fundamental alteration or frustrate application of the city’s zoning or building laws, policies and/or procedures, as defined in the Fair Housing Laws and interpretive case law. The city may consider, but is not limited to, the following factors to determine whether the requested accommodation would fundamentally alter or frustrate application of the city’s zoning or building program:
1. Whether granting the accommodation would fundamentally alter the character of the neighborhood.
2. Whether granting the accommodation would result in a substantial increase in traffic or insufficient parking.
3. Whether granting the accommodation would substantially undermine any express purpose of either the city’s general plan or an applicable specific plan.
17.45.050 Decision.
A. The review authority shall consider the application, and issue a written determination within 40 calendar days of the date of receipt of a completed application. At least 10 calendar days before issuing a written determination on the application, the city shall mail notice to the applicant and adjacent property owners that the city is considering the application and invite written comments as to the requested accommodation. 5 B. If necessary to reach a determination on any request for reasonable accommodation, the review authority may request further information from the applicant or others consistent with this chapter, specifying in detail what information is required. If a request for further information is made of the applicant, the time period to issue a written determination shall be stayed until the applicant responds to the request.
C. The review authority’s written decision shall include findings and conditions of approval. The applicant shall be given notice of the right to appeal, and the right to request reasonable accommodation related to the appeal process. The review authority’s decision shall be mailed to the applicant, to any person who provided written or verbal comment on the application, and to any other person who requests notice.

Honorable Mayor and Members
of the Marina City Council
City Council Meeting
of July 19, 2022
THE CITY COUNCIL OF THE CITY OF MARINA APPROVE
RESOLUTION NO. 202 2-, APPROVING THE ASSIGNMENT OF THE
DEVELOPMENT AGREEMENT RELATED TO THE MARINA STATION
PROJECT TO 3RD MILLENNIUM PARTNERS
THE CITY COUNCIL OF THE CITY OF MARINA READ BY TITLE
ONLY AND APPROVE THE FIRST READING OF ORDINANCE 2022-,
APPROVING THE FIRST AMENDMENT TO THE DEVELOPMENT
AGREEMENT RELATED TO THE MARINA STATION PROJECT
REQUEST
It is requested that the Marina City Council:
1. Approve Resolution 202 2-, approving the assignment of the Development Agreement related to the Marina Station Project to 3rd Millennium Partners
2. Read by title only and waive further reading and approve the first reading of Ordinance 2022-, approving the First Amendment to the Development Agreement related to the Marina Station Project.
BACKGROUND:
The City of Marina and Creekbridge Homes, LLC (“Original Developer”) originally entered into a Development Agreement dated March 4, 2008, related to the Marina Station project (the "Development Agreement") (“EXHIBIT B”). The Development Agreement provided the Original Developer the opportunity t o develop a 320 -acre site into a mixed-use project on either side of Del Monte Avenue at the northern boundary of the City of Marina. The Development Agreement stipulated the terms and conditions for development of 1,360 residential units (887 single family units and 47 3 multifamily units), approximately 60,000 square feet of retail space, approximately 144,000 square feet of office space, approximately 652,000 square feet of business park/industrial, parks and open space (the "Development") . The project approvals include requirements for the development of affordable housing and the reservation of a parcel if needed for the development of a fire station.
The Development Agreement was entered into by the City of Marina and the Original Developer pursuant to Government Code Section 65864 and the Marina Municipal Code Chapter 4.04. The Development Agreement was approved by the City Council on March 4, 2008. At that regular meeting of March 4, 2008, the City Council certified the EIR, approved the General Plan Amendments, the Specific Plan (“EXHIBIT C ” Link to approved Specific Plan) , Zoning Ordinance Map Amendments, a Vesting Tentative Map (collectively the "Project Approvals"), Design Review and the Development Agreement for the Marina Station Project.
Development of the Project has been delayed because of a variety of factors, including the recession, litigation, and transfer of the property to a new ownership group. The Project Approvals were challenged in court resulting in delays in implementation of the Development. The court challenge coincided with the Great Recession that weakened the housing market. As a result of these events as well as the fact that the Original Developer dropped out of t he Development and the Property was sold to a new ownership group, the Development has been delayed. 1 Continued from June 21, 2022
The litigation and related settlement agreement between the Sierra Club and Creekbridge Homes, LLC resulted in some changes in the Development to better accommodate conservation and habitat resource protection (in the northwest portion of the property). As a result of the expanded conservation and habitat resource protection activities, some of the approved housing units in that phase of the project needed to be relocated. This relocation occurred to the east of Del Monte Boulevard. The conservation and habitat protection area required by the settlement agreement also necessitated the relocation of certain park improvements and resulted in the reduction of park acreage.
Creekbridge Homes of Salinas, California was the original developer of the project. Creekbridge Homes dropped out of the project in 2010. Subsequently, the owners of the property began seeking a new developer to move the project forward . The property was sold in 2017 to new property owners. The new ownership group brought in 3rd Millennium Partners, Inc. of San Jose ("3MP") to act as the developer of the Development in 2019. 3MP, acting as the Developer, has been working with the City since that time to move the Development forward.
Given the prior delays in the Development, it is impossible for the Development to be completed by the original expiration date of the Development Agreement – March 2026. 3MP and property owners have requested a 10-year extension of the Development Agreement (to 2036). Although the full 10 additional years most likely will not be needed, the additional time will cover unforeseen events that may occur as development proceeds, including economic cycles.
The Developer is required prior to recording the first final map to obtain City Council approval of a below market rate housing agreement consistent with the Housing Element of the City’s General Plan in effect in 2008. The Development Agreement requires that 20% of the homes be affordable to very low, low and moderate income households with the following breakdown of the affordable units:
• 95 units for moderate income households (120 percent of County median income) • 95 units for low income households (80 percent of County median income) • 82 units for very low-income households (50 percent of County median income)
The below market rate homes will be dispersed throughout the project and likely be a mix of rental and for-sale units. The below market rate housing agreement will include details such as the mix of units between rental and ownership, the timing for development of the units in relation to market rate units, the size of the units and the dispersal of the units through the Development.
Assignment Agreement.
The City originally entered into the Development Agreement with Creekbridge Homes, LLC.
Creekbridge was party to a purchase and sale agreement with the then existing property owner. In 2010 Creekbridge dropped out of Development. The Armstrong Family, the then existing owner of the property, assumed the rights and obligations under the Development Agreement. In 2017 the Armstrong Family sold the property to the current property owners. The rights and obligations under the Development Agreement run with the land and the new owners assumed those rights and obligations when they acquired the Property. The current owners have entered into an agreement with 3MP to act as developer under the terms and conditions of the Development Agreement.
Under the terms of the Development Agreement, the Developer cannot assign the Development Agreement without the consent of the City, which consent may not be unreasonably withheld. The City can refuse to approve an assignment only if the City , in its reasonable opinion , determines that the assignee would not be able to perform the obligations to be assumed. A review of the qualifications of 3MP has determined that 3MP will be able to perform the obligations under the Development Agreement.
2 Development Agreement
The Development Agreement is a valid and enforceable contract which creates rights and responsibilities for both the City and the Developer. The Development Agreement grants the Developer vested rights in the Project Approvals for the term of the Development Agreement and prevents the City from applying new city laws to the Development that conflict with the Project Approvals during the term of the Development Agreement except to the extent that such conditions or requirements are mandated by State or Federal law or required for reasons of public health and safety, such as Building and Fire Code changes. Development Agreements are authorized by Government Code Section 65864 et seq and are designed to provide developers with certainty about development rights, particularly for large scale projects that may be constructed over multiple years. The City of Marina adopted a development agreement ordinance (Chapter 4.04 of the Municipal Code). The City's procedures for the approval of develop ment agreements and amendments to development agreements requires that both the Planning Commission and the City Council hold public hearings.
The Planning Commission held a public hearing on July 8, 2021, on the Development Agreement Amendment as well as the Developer's compliance with the terms of the Development Agreement to date. The Planning Commission unanimously recommended that the City Council approve the amendment to the Development Agreement and found that the Developer is in compliance with the terms of the Development Agreement.
Development Agreement Amendments (“EXHIBIT B”)
The property owner and 3MP have requested a 10-year extension of the term of the Development Agreement. The extension request is based in part on delays that were caused by the great recession, the litigation and most recently the global pandemic , all events outside the control of the Developer. The Development Agreement provides for an automatic extension of the term if the Development is delayed because of certain force majeure ev ents. Some portion of the requested 10-year extension is required as of right under the existing Development Agreement but currently the full 10 years cannot be justified by force majeure events. Since the requested extension requires an amendment to the Development Agreement, the City and the Developer have also reviewed the Development Agreement to determine other amendments that are necessary to address changes that may have occurred since the Development Agreement was originally entered into. The amendment to the Development Agreement proposes the following changes:
• Extends the Term of the Development Agreement for 10 years with a new expiration date of March 4, 2036.
• Clarifies Section 2.3 of the Development Agreement to require that the Development be built to building codes in effect at the time of approval of the building permit s as well as clarifies that the City's then current codes with respect to trees and fencing will be applicable to the Development.
• Removes language regarding escrowing TAMC fees since TAMC has now adopted its regional fee which will be applicable to the Development. • Requires that an update of the 2008 Fiscal Impact study be prepared. The updated fiscal impact study will include as part of the assumptions the formation of community facilities and community service districts to cover some costs of infrastructure as well as all of the City's ongoing m aintenance costs of the infrastructure, including one half of the costs of operation of the fire station serving the area . If the updated fiscal impact study does not show that the Development is at least fiscally neutral to the City, the City does not have to approve the Final Map until the City and the Developer ha ve reached agreement on additional impact fees or a reallocation of maintenance responsibilities to reach fiscal neutrality.
3 • Adds language to clarify that City processing fees in effect at the time a permit application is filed will be applicable to the Development.
• Updates language regarding park improvements to reflect the current configuration of the parks as well as the improvements to be constructed on the parks and to allow the City and the Developer to agree on the standards for the park improvements . The requirements in the existing Development Agreement included specific park improvements that are outdated.
• Revises the City's maintenance obligations related to parks to address that c hange in the Park in Phase 8 that is now , as a result of the Settlement Agreement, conservation and habitat protection area. The Developer will remain responsible for the maintenance of that area in accordance with the terms of the Settlement Agreement. • Imposes a park impact fee on the development to address the reduction in parks and recreational areas that result from changes to the total acreage of parks and park improvement. The Developer will now be responsible for paying 51.9% of the City's park impact fee on each residential unit.
• Grants the City access to the Property owners ' vernal ponds for monitoring and testing should the owners grant such access to any other party.
The City Council, in considering the approval of the amendments to the Development Agreement is required to make certain findings in accordance with the Municipal Code Chapter 4.04 as follows:
• That the Development Agreement is consistent with the objectives, policies, general land uses, and programs specified in the General Plan and the Specific Plan; • That the Development Agreement is compatible with the uses authorized in and the regulations prescribed for, the land use district in which the Property is located • That the Development Agreement is in conformity with public conve nience, general welfare, and good land use practice;
• Whether the Development Agreement will be detrimental to the health, safety, and general welfare;
• Whether Development Agreement will adversely affect the orderly development of property or the preservation of property values;
• That the Development Agreement is consistent with the provisions of the Government Code related to development agreements.
The City Council made these finding for this Development when the original Development Agreement was approved. The Development has not substantially changed since its original approval and remains subject to the same General Plan and Specific Plan provisions that were applicable in 2008. The Amendment to the Development Agreement will not adversely affect the orderly development of the property or the preservation of property values and in fact will contribute to the orderly development of the property by com pleting the Development that was approved in 2008. The Amendment to the Development Agreement is consistent with the provisions of the Government Code related to development agreements. The ordinance prepared for the approval of the Amendment to the Devel opment Agreement makes the required findings based on the above information and the information contained elsewhere in this staff report.
Environmental Determination
On March 4, 2008, the City Council of the City of Marina certified the final environmental impact report for the Marina Station Project (State Clearing House Number 2005061056) ("EIR"). The EIR served as the environmental review for the Development and the Project Approvals and entitlements as well as for the approval of the Development Agr eement. Section 15162 of the 4 CEQA Guidelines states that if an EIR or negative declaration has been adopted for a project, no subsequent EIR is to be prepared unless there have been substantial changes to the project, substantial changes with respect to the circumstances under which the project is undertaken or new information of substantial importance shows that the project would have significant effects not discussed in the EIR. Since certification of the EIR there have been (i) no substantial changes to the project which would require revisions to the EIR due to the involvement of new significant environmental effects or an increase in the severity of previously identified effects. Although there have been changes to the Project since the certification of the EIR as a result of the Settlement Agreement, those changes do not significantly alter the Development or change the density or intensity of the uses approved for the Development such that there are new significant environmental effects;
(ii) no substantial changes have occurred with respect to the circumstances under which the project is being undertaken which require revisions to the EIR due to new significant environmental effects or a substantial increase in the severity of a previously identified effect. The City's urban growth boundary, which was in effect when the Development was approved was recently extended for an additional 20 years so will remain in effect for the duration of the development period. There have been no significant changes in the areas surrounding the Development since the EIR was approved that involve new significant impacts; and (iii) no new information shows that the Development will a. have any significant effects that were not discussed in the EIR, b. that significant effects that were previously examined will be more severe c. mitigations measures or alternatives that were found infeasible would in fact be feasible and reduce one or more significant effects; or d. new mitigation measures or alternatives that were not considered in the EIR would substantially reduce one or more significant effects of the Development on the environment.
Based on the above, no additional environmental analysis is required for the approval of the Amendment to the Development Agreement.
TONIGHT’S ACTION: Staff is recommending the following actions:
That the Marina City Council
1. Approve Resolution 2022-, approving the assignment of the Development Agreement related to the Marina Station Project to 3MP
2. Read by title only and waive further reading and approve the first reading of Ordinance 2022-, approving the Amendment to the Development Agreement related to the Marina Station Project.
FISCAL IMPACT:
The approval of the Amendment to the Development Agreement will result in the following beneficial fiscal impacts to the City:
1. The project will be fiscally neutral or beneficial to the City based on an updated fiscal impact study that must be completed before the City approves the Final Map for the first phase. If the fiscal impact study does not demonstrate that the project is fi scally neutral, the Developer will be obligated to either assume more in the way of maintenance obligations or pay additional impact fees.
5 2. Development of the project as contemplated will result in increased property taxes benefiting the City as well as the other taxing entities.
CONCLUSION:
This request is submitted for City Council discussion and action.
Respectfully submitted,
