• Collen Courtney, See Monterey introduced herself to city staff and council as the new Community Relations Director.
• Karl Waller, owner of The Brass Tap – opened the brass tap in April 2024 and built the most successful brass tap in the history of the franchise. Our success is rooted in quality food, strong beverage offerings, and entertainment. Music is a central part of our operating model.
We were open ed for approximately one year before residents began moving into the 2 MINUTES for City Council Meeting of Tuesday, May 19, 2026 Page 3
promenade rooftops and within the first few months of their move -in, we began receiving noise complaints. On August 15th we received a notice of violation. In response, we agreed to take steps to reduce noise, including moving our karaoke and DJ indoors. We have now a corrective measure that permanently requires we cease the use of amplified speakers and amplified noise. These actions will cause us to cancel several community events if left in force.
• Cassandra Waller, right now, the ordinance can leave businesses uncertain about what is allowed, acceptable sound levels, complaints, and the difference between commercial areas and residential neighborhoods. Asked the council to consider business friendly updates to the noise ordinance such as a live entertainment permit, clear sound standards, indoor entertainment rules, a warning and corrective process and different standards for commercial corridors. Asked the council to put this issue on the agenda for a future meeting and direct staff to review possible updates to the appropriate Marina Municipal codes. • Renee Young, Economic Justice Organizer for the Monterey County Black Caucus, and I'm here tonight because we're deeply concerned about the ongoing enforcement actions being taken against The Brass Tap. This impacts local jobs, economic vitality, and raises serious questions about fairness, planning and accountability. The city helped create this environment. There's an amphitheater and entertainment space located within feet of The Brass Tap. How can the city promote and encourage musical performances in the same shared environment while simultaneously prohibiting a restaurant from operating within entertainment That is consistent with the vision the city itself approved. The Brass Tap was established before surrounding residential housing was fully built out. Residents moving into the area understood they were moving into an active mixed -use promenade adjacent to entertainment and nightlife, and near a college campus. concern is the lack of objective and measurable enforcement standards The city's own code references, measurable Sound levels at decibel standards, including measurements taken at property lines. • LaVisha Franklin encourages the city of Marina to modernize its noise ordinance and create clearer, more business -friendly entertainment rules that still protect residents and neighborhoods. Marina's current ordinance may be too broad and unclear for businesses that are genuinely trying to operate responsibly as The Brass Tap is. Uncertainty discourages investment, creativity, and community events. Encourages the city to consider creating a live entertainment permit system for DJs, live music, karaoke, comedy, and cultural events.
Asked the council to agendize a public discussion and direct staff to study potential updates to Chapter 9.24.
• Athena Burciaga spoke about college kids enjoying the atmosphere of The Brass Tap.
Believes that The Brass Tap is a big part of the Marina culture. Is in favor of Black business, thriving black business in this town, being given a fair shake by the ordinances that we have in place.
• Eric Miller stationed at the former Fort Ord and has watched Marina go from barracks to CSUMB, to the new promenade. Lives across from The Brass Tap. You have done a wonderful job at revitalizing the area and making it more entertaining for a lot of us . Asked for support, but also to modernize the rules so that way business can flourish in the area. • Terry Ward read a text message from someone in Prunedale expressing how they enjoy their Sunday family gatherings at The Brass Tap. Heartbreaking not to hear live music on Sundays. S urprised, the city council of Marina canceled the live music due to noise complaints. Should the complaint of a few individuals trump the positive experience of many? Why do the complaints of individuals move into such a development only to 3 MINUTES for City Council Meeting of Tuesday, May 19, 2026 Page 4
complain about an activity approved by the city? An activity that was meant to enhance the ambiance and the positive experience from the whole community. • Athena Suich invited the Council and the community to Marina’s 1 st ever MDA fundraiser, Fill the Boot Campaign on Saturday, May 30th from 10:00am-2:00pm at the Marina Target. • Lyndon Tar ver, NAACP supports agendizing the city ordinance on noise. Agrees with previous speaker about supporting the brass tap. It's time to update that ordinance and have The Brass Tap function as a fully Black business in the city of Marina. Why handicap them when you knew the Promenade area was mixed-use.
• Denise Turley asked has the business been offered the opportunity to soundproof its facilities so that it can be noisier inside and not as noisy outside? What is the SOMS in that area and is it posted?
• Maiaka Velazquez commented on the reading of the AAPI proclamation by Councilmember Biala. Disappointing that one of the very few Black American freedmen businesses left in Monterey County is now under attack for noise. Explore the council to do the research on the use of this tactic. The current noise ordinance is unclear, and it needs to be updated. We are requesting the city to create a live music entertainment permit for DJs, live music, karaoke, and comedy and cultural events to adopt clear sound limits within property lines and outside.
• Adam Pinterits urge the Council to consider, as you re -examine this ordinance, possibly, to really consider the fairness to the businesses. The brass tap is, to my best of my knowledge, did all the right things, went through all the steps, and got a use permit. So. Check out what is their use permit allow them to do, and let's not go back on that. let's make sure and support our business community, while also respecting the property rights of residents and business owners alike.
• Alastair Rodd commented on the World Cup coming up and looking forward to cheering very loudly outside at a local business and to do that at the heart of the Dunes area. Asked council to consider having a discussion, a public discussion on the noise ordinances for this city and what needs to change in chapter 9.24.
• Francine Rodd appreciates the fact can we figure out together how to solve challenges.
Support the request for the council to agendize a public discussion or study session to discuss some options for updating the Marina Municipal Code that addresses noise. Agrees with the previous comments about the need to both protect residents from unreasonable noise and to support local businesses who need clear rules so that they can operate responsibly within those guidelines.

Public Comments:
• Adam Pinterits wanted to congratulate the applicants on a well put together package and seeming to work well together with the city and what it needs in terms of diverse economic development. If we can so readily examine our tree ordinance, you all should be aware that other cities would be envious of this. I think serves as a great example not just for this development, but for all developments, and not just for the sake of development, but as you're, of course, aware, for the sake of insurance, which affects everyone from commercial to residential.
Council discussed the Nexus Nolan test, monument sign size, computer simulation of Highway One view, carwash, idling and paging noise, parameter lighting, branding, trees on property and along highway side of fence, vehicle deliveries.

Public Comments:
• Fred Watson, can we clarify that public use of the overgrown trails would be allowed , i n addition to some other trails that are not overgrown. Can we pave the overrun trails? If invasive removal is presumed, whether that be in the long -term management plan or elsewhere, can it be in writing? Suggested potential to expand the HMA . Asked that we put in writing that there will be a class one trail associated with the Del Monte extension now proposed on that western edge of Cypress Knolls.
• Grace Silva -Santella enjoyed the site visits. Commented on serving on the planning commission and chaired the General Plan Update for 2000 where 2nd Avenue extension was discussed how critical and important that habitat is for Sand Gilia. Felt that extension was essential to the survival of Central Marina as South Marina began to develop , does not feel that way now.
• Nikki Nedeff representing the Monterey Bay chapter of the California Native Plant Society .
CMPS wants the council to reduce the proposed development footprint that you have identified. You do not need to impact rare coastal resources in order to achieve both your housing and commercial development goals . Regarding the mitigation areas , presumably, there will be CDFW easements over the mitigation areas that are held by a qualified land trust and CMPS requests that the easements allow for some form of limited access For organized field trips.
Council discussed the northwest corner Habitat Management Area pathway/trail, Dadwal property violation area, exhaustion of existing mitigation areas, Salinas Avenue/Reservation Road site, Salinas Valley River habitat , land-use designation change, 2 nd Avenue trail to Patton Parkway not connecting to residential streets, 5.4-acre potential restoration area and the criteria used to create this trail, Smith's Blue Butterfly habitat.

Honorable Mayor and Members City Council Meeting of
of the Marina City Council June 16, 2026
CITY COUNCIL CONSIDER ADOPTING RESOLUTION NO. 20 26-,
ADOPTING A N UPDATED LIST OF PROJECTS FOR FISCAL YEAR
2026-27 FUNDED BY SB 1: THE ROAD REPAIR AND
ACCOUNTABILITY ACT OF 2017
RECOMMENDATION: It is recommended that the City Council consider:
1. Adopting Resolution No. 2026 -, adopting an updated list of projects for Fiscal Year 2026-27 funded by SB 1: The Road Repair and Accountability Act of 2017.
BACKGROUND:
On April 28, 2017 the Governor signed Senate Bill 1 (Beall, Chapter 5, Statutes of 2017), which is known as the Road Repair and Accountability Act of 2017. To address basic road maintenance, rehabilitation and critical safety needs on both the state highway and local streets and road system, Senate Bill 1 (SB 1): increases per gallon fuel excise taxes; increases diesel fuel sales taxes and vehicle registration fees; and provides for inflationary adjustments to tax rates in future years.
The Road Repair and Accountability Act of 2017 provides $5.2 billion annually and is a significant investment in California’s transportation infrastructure. Monterey County's share of the local streets and roads funding is approximately $22.4 million in fiscal year 2026/27.
Beginning November 1, 2017, the State Controller deposits various portions of this new funding into the newly created Road Maintenance and Rehabilitation Account (RMRA). A percentage of this new RMRA funding is apportioned by formula to eligible cities and counties for basic road maintenance, rehabilitation, and critical safety projects on the local streets and roads system.
Prior to receiving an apportionment of RMRA funds from the State Controller in a fiscal year, a city or county must submit to the California Transportation Commission a list of projects proposed to be funded with these funds. All projects proposed to receive funding must be adopted by resolution by the applicable city council or county board of supervisors at a regular public meeting. The list of projects must include a description and the location of each proposed project, a proposed schedule for the project’s completion, and the estimated useful life of the improvement. This report is due to the California Transportation Commission by July 1st of each year.
In addition to the project list report, for each fiscal year in which RMRA funds are received and expended, cities and counties must submit documentation to the California Transportation Commission that details the expenditure of all RMRA funds, including a description and location of each completed project, the amount of funds expended on the project, the completion date, and the estimated useful life of the improvement. This report on expenditures is due to the California Transportation Commission by October 1st of each year.
ANALYSIS:
As part of the City’s Pavement Management Program’s annual street maintenance project budget, the City has developed a fiscal year project list that will utilize the RMRA funds to supplement the financing of project administration and construction. This project list is substantially consistent with funding appropriations previously approved by the Council for Capital Improvement Program (CIP) Annual Street Resurfacing . The City Council can add more streets to the proposed lists and/or additional budget at a later date.
The proposed list (“EXHIBIT A ”) is a representation of the City’s intent for roadway maintenance projects to the California Transportation Commission to fulfill its annual reporting requirements and can be amended after submission. This action only pertains to the proposed expenditure of RMRA funds for the fiscal year 202 6-2027. Once adopted, staff will enter the project list into the State SB1 Programs Project Intake website prior to the July 1st deadline.
FISCAL IMPACT:
Should the City Council approve this request, the entry of the City’s proposed project list will allow the City to receive an estimated $649,554 of SB 1 revenue. The submission of the project list is a declaration of intent to the California Transportation Commission that the City will dedicate the RMRA funds towards roadway maintenance.
CONCLUSION:
This request is submitted for City Council consideration and possible action.
Respectfully submitted,

WHEREAS, the City, will receive an estimated $649,554 in RMRA funding in Fiscal Year 2026-27 from SB 1; and
WHEREAS, this is the tenth year in which the City is receiving SB 1 funding and will enable the City to continue essential road maintenance and rehabilitation projects, safety improvements, repairing and replacing aging bridges, and increasing access and mobility options for the traveling public that would not have otherwise been possible without SB 1; and
WHEREAS, the City has undergone a robust public process to ensure public input into our community’s transportation priorities/the project list; and
WHEREAS, the City used a Pavement Management System to develop the SB 1 project list to ensure revenues are being used on the most high -priority and cost -effective projects that also meet the communities priorities for transportation investment; and

Honorable Mayor and Members City Council Meeting
of the Marina City Council of June 16, 2026
CITY COUNCIL CONSIDER ADOPTING RESOLUTION NO. 2026 -,
AUTHORIZING THE CITY MANAGER TO EXECUTE A REFUND
SERVICES ENGAGEMENT AGREEMENT WITH MG ENVIRONMENTAL,
LLC TO PURSUE POTENTIAL REIMBURSEMENT OF HAZARDOUS
WASTE DISPOSAL FEES, SUBJECT TO FINAL REVIEW AND APPROVAL
BY THE CITY ATTORNEY
REQUEST:
It is requested that the City Council consider:
1. Adopting Resolution No. 2026 -___ authorizing the City Manager to execute a Refund Services Engagement Agreement with MG Environmental, LLC to pursue potential refunds and reimbursements related to hazardous waste disposal fees and environmental regulatory charges on behalf of the City of Marina, subject to final review and approval by the City Attorney.
BACKGROUND:
The City conducts blight abatement and cleanup throughout the community. Some of these projects require the removal and disposal of hazardous materials, resulting in disposal fees and related charges paid by the City.
MG Environmental, LLC specializes in identifying and recovering eligible reimbursements associated with hazardous waste disposal fees and environmental regulatory charges. The firm has contacted the City regarding a potential opportunity to recover fees pa id in connection with hazardous waste disposal activities occurring between 2021 and 2024.
Under the proposed Refund Services Engagement Agreement, MG Environmental would act as the City's authorized representative to review records, obtain disposal documentation, communicate with regulatory agencies, prepare and submit reimbursement claims, and pursue any eligible refunds or reimbursements on behalf of the City.
The agreement establishes an initial term of eighteen (18) months with automatic annual renewals unless terminated by either party. Compensation is based solely on a contingency fee equal to twenty-two percent (22%) of any reimbursement or refund successfu lly recovered. If no reimbursement is obtained, the City incurs no cost for MG Environmental's services.
ANALYSIS:
MG Environmental has indicated that government agencies may be eligible to recover certain hazardous waste disposal fees that were paid in connection with public projects and cleanup activities. Based on preliminary discussions with the firm, hazardous waste generated during City blight abatement and cleanup operations conducted between 2021 and 2024 may qualify for reimbursement.
1 The proposed agreement would authorize MG Environmental to review historical disposal records, manifests, hazardous waste profiles, and related documentation necessary to determine eligibility and pursue reimbursement claims. The agreement also includes an authorization allowing MG Environmental to obtain relevant records from treatment, storage, and disposal facilities used by the City.
Staff believes the contingency -based structure minimizes financial risk to the City because compensation is only due if funds are successfully recovered. The City is not responsible for MG Environmental's costs associated with investigating or pursuing claims, and there is no obligation to pay any fee unless a reimbursement is obtained.
FISCAL IMPACT:
There is no upfront fiscal impact associated with the proposed agreement. Compensation to MG Environmental would only be paid if a refund is successfully recovered on behalf of the City.
Under the agreement, MG Environmental would receive twenty-two percent (22%) of any refund obtained, with the remaining balance retained by the City.
Because the amount of any potential refund is currently unknown, the fiscal benefit to the City cannot be determined at this time.
CONCLUSION:
The proposed agreement provides a no -upfront-cost opportunity for the City to pursue potential reimbursements related to hazardous waste disposal fees and environmental regulatory charges that may be owed to the City. Approval of the agreement would author ize MG Environmental to investigate and pursue eligible reimbursement and refund claims on the City's behalf.

The Improvements required by the improvement plans entitled “ The Dunes on Monterey Bay Phase 1B-Promenade Improvement Plans” (“Improvement Plans ”), and approved by the City Engineer on December 13, 2022 , were completed by MCP in substantial conformance with the approved Improvement Plans for the project.
The Public Improvement Agreement states that a Guarantee and Warranty period will remain for one year after acceptance of the Improvements by the City Council.
Therefore, a request is being made by MCP to release all of the Faithful Performance bond. A new bond of 10% of the original Performance bond ($274,829.70) for public improvements in Phase 1B-Promenade will remain with the City Clerk as the Guarantee and Warranty Security for one (1) year after acceptance. Any repairs required during the Guarantee and Warranty period will be made by MCP, or the costs w ill be recovered from said bond . After the Warranty period, maintenance responsibilities for streetlights, sidewalks, pavement, and stormwater improvements will be covered by the City.
FISCAL IMPACT:
The fiscal impacts for maintenance of these improvements after the warranty period have been captured in the Community Facilities District, Dunes 2024-01.
CEQA Findings:
The City has determined this is not a project under CEQA per Article 20 Section 15378 and under General Rule Article 5 Section 15061.
CONCLUSION:
This request is submitted for City Council consideration and possible action.

CITY COUNCIL OPEN PUBLIC HEARING, TAK E TESTIMONY FROM
THE PUBLIC AND CONSIDER ADOPTING RESOLUTION NO. 2026-,
CONFIRMING DIAGRAM, ASSESSMENT AND ORDERING LEVY OF
$182.42 FOR FY 2026-27 ASSESSMENT FOR THE SEABREEZE
LANDSCAPE MAINTENANCE ASSESSMENT DISTRICT , AND;
AUTHORIZING THE CITY CLERK TO FILE A CERTIFIED COPY OF
THE DIAGRAM AND ASSESSMENT WITH THE MONTEREY COUNTY
AUDITOR-CONTROLLER PRIOR TO AUGUST 1, 2026
REQUEST:
It is requested that the City Council:
1. Open public hearing and take testimony from the public;
2. Consider adopting Resolution No. 20 26-, confirming diagram, assessment and ordering levy of $18 2.42 for FY 2026-27 assessment for Seabreeze Landscape Maintenance Assessment District; and,
3. Authorize the City Clerk to file a certified copy of the diagram and assessment with the Monterey County Auditor-Controller prior to August 1, 2026 BACKGROUND:
At the regular meeting of June 4, 1996, the City Council adopted Resolution No. 1996 -62, ordering the formation of the Seabreeze Landscape Maintenance Assessment District pursuant to Streets and Highway Code §22594 and the Landscaping and Lighting Act of 1972 to maintain certain improvements required of new development as a condition of the subdivision approvals.
The Landscaping and Lighting Act of 1972 requires an annual update report to be prepared which includes the costs to maintain the improvements of the Districts and what the proposed assessments will be to provide for that maintenance.
At the regular meeting of May 19, 202 6, the City Council adopted Resolution No. 2026-50, receiving the FY 2026-27 Engineer’s Report for Seabreeze Landscape Maintenance Assessment District and calling a public hearing for June 16 , 2026, on the proposed intention to levy and collect assessments for the District.
ANALYSIS:
Based on the Engineer’s Report (EXHIBIT A), the assessment has been set in the amount of $182.42. This is the same amount as the prior year's assessment and represents the maximum assessment authorized through the District's formation proceedings in 1996.
Staff recommends continuing the existing assessment of $182.42 per parcel for FY 2026 -27. As discussed in the Engineer's Report, annual expenditures and administrative costs are projected to exceed annual revenues, resulting in a declining fund balance. While no assessment increase is proposed for FY 2026 -27, staff anticipates conducting outreach with District property owners during the coming year regarding potential future assessment adjustments and long -term funding options to address the District's long-term financial sustainability. 1 FISCAL IMPACT:
Should the City Council approve this request, the anticipated revenue for the FY 2026-27 assessment levy is $6,749.54 for the purpose of the landscape maintenance district.
The levying of the assessment is the first step to collect the assessments to fund the landscape maintenance district.
CONCLUSION:
This request is submitted for City Council consideration and possible action.

LANDSCAPE MAINTENANCE ASSESSMENT DISTRICT
FY 2026-2027
INTRODUCTION
This Engineer’s Report has been prepared for the Seabreeze Landscape Maintenance Assessment District (LMD) pursuant to the provisions of the California Streets and Highways Code, Landscaping and Lighting Act of 1972. The purpose of this report is to provide an updated description of the District, identify the improvements being maintained, establish the method of assessment apportionment, and present the estimated costs and revenues required for the ongoing operation and maintenance of public improvements within the District.
The report also includes updated financial information for Fiscal Year 2026-2027 and forward projections to assist the City Council in understanding the long-term fiscal condition of the District under current assumptions.
DISTRICT DESCRIPTION
The Seabreeze Landscape Maintenance Assessment District is located on the north side of Beach Road and west of Marina Drive within the City of Marina, Monterey County, California. The District consists of thirty-seven residential parcels that were developed with complete infrastructure improvements, including streets, underground utilities, drainage facilities, and landscaped buffer areas.
The District was formed to ensure the long-term maintenance of certain common landscape and infrastructure improvements that were constructed as part of the original subdivision development and dedicated for ongoing public benefit. These improvements include street frontage landscaping, perimeter buffer areas, and landscape zones adjacent to drainage and transportation corridors.
IMPROVEMENTS MAINTAINED
The improvements maintained by the District include landscaped areas along the northerly side of Beach Road and within designated buffer zones adjacent to the Southern Pacific Railroad corridor and drainage percolation basin. These areas consist of ground cover, shrubs, and trees, as well as associated irrigation systems including piping, valves, controllers, emitters, and sprinkler infrastructure.
The District also provides for the maintenance, repair, and replacement of associated improvements as necessary to ensure the continued functionality and appearance of the landscaped areas. All improvements are maintained in accordance with the approved landscape and streetscape plans prepared for the Seabreeze subdivision.
EXHIBIT A
6 DISTRICT BOUNDARIES
The District consists of 37 residential parcels as shown on the Assessment Diagram (Exhibit A).
Each parcel receives a proportionate benefit from the maintenance of the common landscaped areas.
METHOD OF APPORTIONMENT (EXHIBIT D)
The costs associated with the maintenance of the District improvements are apportioned equally among all thirty-seven parcels. Each parcel receives a substantially equal benefit from the ongoing maintenance of the common landscaped areas, and therefore each parcel is assessed an equal share of the total annual costs. For Fiscal Year 2025–2026, the maximum assessment authorized under the original formation proceedings and consistent with Proposition 218 is $182.42 per parcel. Based on this assessment level, the total annual revenue generated by the District is approximately $6,750.
ESTIMATED COST OF IMPROVEMENTS
The annual cost of maintaining the District improvements is based on contracted services, administrative support, and cost allocation charges necessary to sustain operations.
Table 1
Fiscal Year 2026-2027
Category Amount
Landscape Maintenance Contract $2,793
Administrative Services (Engineering + Report Preparation) $3,605 Cost Allocation Plan Charges $1,740
Legal Advertising $230
Total Estimated Expenditures $8,368
REVENUE AND FUNDING
The District is funded entirely through annual assessments levied on the thirty-seven parcels within its boundaries. For Fiscal Year 2026-2027, total assessment revenue is estimated at approximately $6,750, based on an equal per-parcel assessment of $182.42. These revenues are intended to fully fund the annual cost of maintaining the District improvements.
FUND BALANCE AND LONG-TERM OUTLOOK
Historical and projected fund balances indicate the following trend:
Table 2
Fiscal Year Ending Fund Balance
FY 2024-25 $477
FY 2025-26 $157
FY 2026-27 (est.) $(1,019)
FY 2027-28 (est.) $(2,373)
FY 2028-29 (est.) $(3,910)
While annual revenues currently offset annual expenditures, projected multi-year costs reflect gradual increases primarily driven by inflationary adjustments to contracted services and administrative allocations. Under current assumptions, the District is projected to experience declining fund balance levels in future fiscal years. Following the trends of prior years the district will become insolvent in the FY 27/28 without significant changes to service levels, administrative costs, or funding adjustments to maintain long-term fiscal sustainability.
EXHIBIT A
7 ADMINISTRATIVE CONSIDERATIONS
A significant portion of total District expenditures consists of administrative support and City cost allocation charges required to manage, contract, and oversee maintenance activities.
Given the relatively small scale of the District, administrative costs represent a substantial proportion of total annual expenditures.
SUMMARY
The Seabreeze Landscape Maintenance Assessment District continues to provide essential maintenance services that support the long-term functionality and appearance of common landscaped areas benefiting all parcels within the District. Under current funding assumptions, annual revenues are generally sufficient to support near-term maintenance obligations.
However, projected financial trends indicate that the District operates within a narrow fiscal margin, with limited capacity to absorb cost increases or unforeseen maintenance needs. Multi- year projections suggest a gradual decline in fund balance under existing revenue and cost assumptions, reflecting the impact of inflationary pressures and fixed revenue constraints.
ALTERNATIVES FOR CONSIDERATION
The City may consider the following general alternatives regarding long-term District operations:
Alternative 1: Maintain Existing Assessment Structure
Continue operations under the existing assessment rate and service levels. This alternative would require the city to adsorb a significant portion of administrative costs over the long-term operational outlook.
Alternative 2: Evaluate Revenue Adjustment Process
Considering updated assessments to align revenues with projected long-term expenditure and administrative cost increases. City staff changes, subject to applicable procedural requirements under Proposition 218. City staff will prepare an initial estimated assessment increase value to align expense with revenue outreach with Landscape Maintenance District residents to assess viability of the assessment increase.
Alternative 3: Evaluate Long-Term Service Structure
Considering potential modifications to the district’s long-term maintenance and administrative structure to optimize efficiency and sustainability of service delivery.
Reducing expenditures and administrative costs to align with revenue.
Alternative 4: Dissolve the Landscape Maintenance District This would require the city to maintain the landscape in City right-of-way but with a minimal cost increase to existing maintenance budgets.
EXHIBIT A
8 CONCLUSION
Throughout FY2026/2027 City staff will work with Landscape Maintenance District residents and provide outreach and coordination to address the above alternatives for long-term district operations. Results of this outreach and a recommendation for suture Landscape Maintenance District operation will be brought to council in Quarter 1 of 2027 during the FY2027/2028 hearing and budgetary planning for this Landscape Maintenance District .
This report is intended to provide an updated technical and fiscal overview of the District for Fiscal Year 2025–2026 and forward-looking planning purposes. All findings are presented for consideration by the City Council in evaluating the ongoing maintenance and funding structure of the district.

METHOD OF DETERMINATION OF ASSESSMENT SPREAD
The costs of maintaining the landscaped improvements within the Seabreeze Landscape Maintenance Assessment District provide a special benefit to all properties within the District.
These benefits are considered substantially equal in nature due to the uniform access and reliance on the common landscaped areas and associated improvements by each parcel.
Therefore, the total annual costs of maintenance and administration are apportioned equally among the thirty-seven residential parcels within the District, as shown on the Assessment Diagram (Exhibit A). Each parcel is assigned an equal share of the total annual assessment in accordance with the original formation methodology and consistent with the requirements of the Landscaping and Lighting Act of 1972

Honorable Mayor and Members City Council Meeting
of the Marina City Council of June 16, 2026
CITY COUNCIL OPEN PUBLIC HEARING, TAK E TESTIMONY FROM
THE PUBLIC AND CONSIDER ADOPTING RESOLUTION NO. 2026-,
CONFIRMING DIAGRAM, ASSESSMENT AND ORDERING LEVY OF
$77.14 FOR THE FY 2026-27 ASSESSMENT FOR THE MONTEREY BAY
ESTATES LIGHTING & LANDSCAPE MAINTENANCE ASSESSMENT
DISTRICT; AND AUTHORIZING THE CITY CLERK TO FILE A
CERTIFIED COPY OF THE DIAGRAM AND ASSESSMENT WITH THE
MONTEREY COUNTY AUDITOR -CONTROLLER PRIOR TO AUGUST
1, 2026
REQUEST:
It is requested that the City Council:
1. Open public hearing and take testimony from the public;
2. Consider adopting Resolution No. 2 026-, confirming diagram, assessment and ordering levy of $77.14 for FY 2026-27 assessment for the Monterey Bay Estates Lighting & Landscape Maintenance Assessment District; and
3. Authorize the City Clerk to file a certified copy of the diagram and assessment with the Monterey County Auditor-Controller prior to August 1, 2026.
BACKGROUND:
At the regular meeting of October 3, 1989, the City Council adopted Resolution No. 1989-62, ordering the formation of the Monterey Bay Estates Lighting & Landscape Maintenance Assessment District pursuant to Streets and Highway Code §22594 and the Landscaping and Lighting Act of 1972 to maintain certain improvements required of new de velopment as a condition of the subdivision approvals.
The Landscaping and Lighting Ac t of 1972 requires an annual update report to be prepared which includes the costs to maintain the improvements of the Districts a nd what the proposed assessments will be to provide for that maintenance.
At the regular meeting of May 19, 2026, the City Council adopted Resolution No. 2026-51, receiving the FY 2026-27 Engineer’s Report for Monterey Bay Estates Lighting & Landscape Maintenance Assessment District and calling a public hearing for June 16, 2026, on the proposed intention to levy and collect assessments for the District.
ANALYSIS:
Based on the Engineer’s Report (EXHIBIT A), the assessment has been set in the amount of $77.14. This is the same amount as the prior year's assessment and represents the maximum assessment currently authorized for the District. 1 Staff recommends continuing the existing assessment of $77.14 per parcel for FY 2026 -27. The District currently maintains a positive fund balance and remains financially stable in the near term. However, as discussed in the Engineer’s Report, projected expenditures and administrative costs are expected to gradually increase while assessment revenues remain fixed, resulting in a gradual decline in available reserves.
While no assessment increase is proposed for FY 2026 -27, staff anticipates conducting outreach with District property owners during the coming year regarding potential future assessment adjustments and long -term funding options to support the District’s continued financial sustainability.
FISCAL IMPACT:
Should the City Council approve this request, the anticipated revenue for the FY 2026-27 assessment levy is $12,496.68 for the purpose of the landscape maintenance district.
Levying of the assessment is the first step to collect the assessments to fund the landscape maintenance district.
CONCLUSION:
This request is submitted for City Council consideration and possible action.
Respectfully submitted,

FY 2026-2027
INTRODUCTION
This Engineer’s Report has been prepared for the Monterey Bay Estates Landscape Maintenance Assessment District (LMD) pursuant to the provisions of the California Streets and Highways Code, Landscaping and Lighting Act of 1972. The purpose of this report is to provide an updated description of the District, identify the improvements being maintained, establish the method of assessment apportionment, and present the estimated costs and revenues required for the ongoing operation and maintenance of public improvements within the District.
The report also includes updated financial information for Fiscal Year 2026-2027 and forward projections to assist the City Council in understanding the long-term fiscal condition of the District under current assumptions.
DISTRICT DESCRIPTION
The Monterey Bay Estates Landscape Maintenance Assessment District is located within the City of Marina, Monterey County, California, and consists of residential parcels developed with associated infrastructure improvements, including streets, utilities, drainage facilities, and landscaped common areas.
The District was formed to provide for the long-term maintenance of landscaped improvements and related infrastructure that serve a common benefit to all properties within the District.
IMPROVEMENTS MAINTAINED
The District provides for the maintenance of landscaped areas, including ground cover, shrubs, trees, irrigation systems, and associated appurtenances such as controllers, valves, piping, and sprinkler infrastructure.
Maintenance activities include routine landscaping services, irrigation system operation and repair, replacement of plant material, and upkeep of drainage -adjacent landscaping areas to preserve both functional and aesthetic conditions.
DISTRICT BOUNDARIES
The District consists of 162 residential parcels as shown on the Assessment Diagram (Exhibit A). Each parcel receives a proportionate benefit from the maintenance of the common landscaped areas.
EXHIBIT A
6 METHOD OF APPORTIONMENT (EXHIBIT D)
Costs associated with the maintenance of District improvements are apportioned equally among all parcels within the District. Each parcel receives a substantially equal benefit from the ongoing maintenance of shared landscaped areas; therefore, each parcel is assessed an equal share of the total annual costs.
The assessment methodology is consistent with the original formation proceedings and compliant with Proposition 218 requirements.
ESTIMATED COST OF IMPROVEMENTS
The annual cost of maintaining the District improvements is based on contracted services, administrative support, and cost allocation charges necessary to sustain operations.
Table 1
Fiscal Year 2026-2027
Category Amount
Landscape Maintenance Contract $5,988
Administrative Services (Engineering + Report Preparation) $3,605 Cost Allocation Plan Charges $2871
Legal Advertising $216
Total Estimated Expenditures $7,306
REVENUE AND FUNDING
The District is funded entirely through annual assessments levied on the 162 parcels within its boundaries. For Fiscal Year 2026 -2027, total assessment revenue is estimated at approximately $ 12,497, based on an equal per -parcel assessment of $ 77.14. These revenues are intended to fully fund the annual cost of maintaining the District improvements.
FUND BALANCE AND LONG-TERM OUTLOOK
Historical and projected fund balances indicate the following trend:
Table 2
Fiscal Year Ending Fund Balance
FY 2024-25 $6,944
FY 2025-26 $6,177
FY 2026-27 (est.) $ 7,608
FY 2027-28 (est.) $7,306
FY 2028-29 (est.) $6,709
While the District is currently in a positive fund balance position and remains financially stable in the near term, projections indicate a gradual decline over the multi-year planning horizon. This trend is primarily driven by ongoing inflationary increas es in maintenance and administrative costs, combined with relatively fixed revenue capacity under the current assessment structure.
Although the District is not presently in financial distress, continued downward pressure on fund balance suggests that the current funding model may not be fully sustainable in the long term without future adjustments.
EXHIBIT A
7 ADMINISTRATIVE CONSIDERATIONS
A significant portion of annual District expenditures is associated with administrative services and Citywide cost allocation charges required to manage contracts, oversee maintenance activities, and ensure compliance with applicable requirements.
Given the relatively small scale of the District, administrative costs represent a meaningful component of total annual expenditures and contribute to long-term fund balance decline.
CONCLUSION
The Monterey Bay Estates Landscape Maintenance Assessment District continues to provide essential services that support the appearance and functionality of common landscaped areas benefiting all parcels within the District.
The District is currently in stable financial condition with positive fund balances.
However, long -term projections indicate a gradual decline in reserves under existing assumptions, reflecting the impact of inflation and fixed assessment revenue constraints.

METHOD OF DETERMINATION OF ASSESSMENT SPREAD
The maintenance and servicing of landscaping improvements and public lighting facilities within the Monterey Bay Estates Lighting and Landscape Maintenance Assessment District specially benefit all parcels within the District.
Because each residential lot receives substantially equal special benefit from the continued maintenance, operation, and servicing of these improvements, the assessment is apportioned equally among the 162 residential parcels within the District.
The annual assessment for Fiscal Year 2026-2027 is $77.14 per parcel, which does not exceed the maximum assessment previously authorized.

Honorable Mayor and Members City Council Meeting
of the City Council of June 16, 2026
CITY COUNCIL RECEIVE PRESENTATION FROM FM3 CONSULTANT
REGARDING COMMUNITY OPINION SURVEY AND PROVIDE
DIRECTION TO STAFF REGARDING MARINA U TILITY USERS TAX
(UUT) AND RELATED RESOLUTION SUBMITTING A UUT MEASURE
TO VOTERS
RECOMMENDATION:
It is recommended that the City Council:
1. Receive presentation from FM3 Consultant regarding Community Opinion Survey; and
2. Provide direction to staff regarding the specific characteristics of a potential Marina Utility User Tax (UUT), including rate, covered utilities, and exemptions.
BACKGROUND:
Aging City Facilities, City Facility Citizens Advisory Committee, and City’s Previous Discussions Regarding Utility User Tax
As has been discussed at several previous City Council meetings over the last year, the City’s population has more than doubled since its incorporation in 1975, yet the City still relies on the same aging and deteriorating fire stations, police station, and city facilities that were built for a much smaller population. Many City buildings do not meet modern safety standards, are inaccessible to residents with disabilities, an d suffer from mold, asbestos, and leaks. The cost to modernize and/or replace these facilities is beyond what the City’s current revenues can support.
On September 23, 2025, the City Council held a special Study Session to discuss a pathway forward on meeting the needs for new City facilities, including a police station, fire station, emergency operations center, community center facilities, a new city hall and council chamber and potential funding strategies for constructing these new facilities.
Following the September 2025 discussion, Council directed staff to establish a City Facility Citizens Advisory Committee (CFCAC) to work with Tripepi Smith, staff, and other consultants as appropriate; initiate community outreach efforts, including tours, public meetings, and engagement opportunities to involve residents early in the process; conduct further research into funding mechanisms such as bonds and utility user tax options, potential exemptions, and case studies form other cities; and provide Coun cil with preliminary analysis of voter demographics, past election results, and a summary of the City’s available facility sites.
On December 16, 2025, staff and the CFCAC presented additional information to Council regarding potential funding strategies, including a general tax ballot measure in the form a Utility Users Tax, or UUT.
On January 21, 2026, staff and the CFCAC presented to Council the City Facilities Citizens Advisory Committee Report and Recommendations. At this same meeting, Council requested additional UUT-related information, including evaluating the UUT supporting information, identifying utilities that could be taxed, and reviewing potential tax exemptions.
Following th at meeting, staff worked with Keyser Marston to update the UUT estimates by extracting PG&E Data that was specific to Marina, requesting average commercial and residential revenues from the Marina Coast Water District; and using the City’s franchise fee information to estimate potential cable TV revenues. This updated information was presented to Council on March 3, 2026, including the following chart, which summarizes applicability and exemptions for UUTs in nearby cities:
At the March 3, 2026 Council meeting, staff also outlined funding options for critical city facility projects—a City Hall/Council Chamber, Police Department, and Fire Station —with total project costs of $69.25 million, of which roughly $19.3 million is partially funded, leaving about $49.98 million still needed. A second scenario added a Recreation Campus/Hillcrest project, raising total facility needs to $77.88 million with about $57.6 million remaining to be funded. (All figures are adjusted for an estimated 15% inflation assuming construction begins in 2027.)
Since the March 3, 2026 Council meeting, staff has further evaluated the options for a UUT in Marina, including potential rate(s), covered utilities, exemptions, and potential legal limitations.
As the Council has previously determined, the UUT would be a general tax, meaning that its revenues would be available for general municipal purposes. Accordingly, it would require only a simple majority (50% +1) vote to pass.
Summary of Fairbank, Maslin, Maullin, Metz & Associates (FM3) Polling Results
The City hired the survey research firm FM3 to gather resident viewpoints in a scientifically valid sampling of the community to evaluate public perception about critical services in the City and the potential for a UUT measure to address th ose critical needs. FM3 conducted a survey on the opinions of local funding for public facilities for the City of Marina. The survey interviewed 312 of the likely voters for the November 2026 election and was conducted through telephone and online interviews. Among other things, the survey tested the following proposed ballot question:
MARINA 911 EMERGENCY, PUBLIC SAFETY, COMMUNITY
SERVICES MEASURE. To ensure firefighters, paramedics, police officers response to emergencies/ natural disasters by funding police/fire stations; prevent disruptions to City services; provide safe play places for children, and provide general municipal services, shall the City of Marina’s measure establishing a 7% utility users’ tax, generating approximately $3,600,000 annually until ended by voters, be adopted, requiring low-income rates, public spending disclosure, audits, all funds spent locally, be adopted?
In general, the survey concluded:
• A UUT measure for the City of Marina is viable for the November 2026 ballot, as long as the City is committed to ongoing outreach and communications about the measure and its impacts.
• On the initial vote, support is very close to the majority vote threshold needed for passage. • The total support is similar to results on past bond measures, but this measure requires only a simple majority of voter approval, not the two-thirds required for a bond measure. • When voters are provided with additional information about the proposed measure. support for the measure jumps to 65% and it remains well above the majority vote threshold after simulating robust opposition messaging.
• After information and opposition, support is higher than in past surveys, bolstered by an increasing number of Marina voters who perceive that the City needs additional funding. • There are several extremely high priorities for a potential measure, focused on services and outcomes from infrastructure investments, including:
o Maintaining safe/clean drinking water
o Emergency/natural disaster response
o Public safety
o Accessibility for disabled residents
o Repairing streets and potholes
o Preventing disruptions to City services
• It is also a high priority for voters that the measure includes fiscal accountability provisions such as spending disclosure, oversight and audits.
• An advisory measure does not seem to be necessary or helpful for the measure. • There is more support for a 7% UUT with low -income rates or exemptions than for a flat rate of 5%.
ANALYSIS:
Based on previous direction from Council, and staff’s evaluation of existing UUTs in nearby jurisdictions, staff recommends that a Marina UUT ordinance have the following applicability and exemptions:
• Applies to water, gas, electric, tele communications (including mobile), and video (including cable, satellite, and streaming);1
• 7% blanket tax rate
• Exemptions for certain low income households and seniors, to be further determined by City Council (see table below for proposed specific exemption approaches)
The following table shows the projected revenues from a UUT tax with these features, including variations depending on exemption types:
EXHIBIT A includes additional data from Keyser Marston showing the estimated per household costs for each exemption alternative.
If the City Council decides to pursue a UUT ordinance and measure, staff recommends that the Council direct it to bring back a draft resolution placing the measure on the ballot for Council
1 Earlier staff presentations had not included cable, satellite, and streaming, based in part on staff’s initial belief that administering and collecting taxes for these services would be difficult. However, upon further discussion with Keyser Marston, staff now understands that administering and collecting on these services is feasible. Thus, staff now recommends including these services in the UUT.
consideration at its July 7, 2026 meeting. The very last day to place any measure on the ballot for the November 2026 election is Friday, August 7, 2026, so the Council could potentially adopt the resolution at its August 3, 2026 meeting . However, staff recommends that the Council consider the resolution sooner in case changes need to be made or Council wants staff to provide additional information following the initial presentation of the draft resolution.
Future Actions
If the City Council directs staff to continue pursuing a UUT measure, staff will draft a resolution to present to the Council at its July 7, 2026 meeting, which will contain the ballot question and draft UUT ordinance. If adopted by the Council, the resolution will order the mea sure to be submitted to the voters at the November 3, 2026 general election.
FISCAL IMPACT:
There is no fiscal impact currently. If the voters approve the tax measure, the tax measure would generate substantial additional revenues, projected to range from $2.9 million to $ 4.1 million annually, depending upon exemptions included in the tax measure.
CONCLUSION:
Staff requests that the City Council provide definitive direction regarding the following questions:
• Does the City Council wish to direct staff to prepare a draft resolution and UUT ordinance to present at the next Council meeting? If so:
o What utilities should be taxed?
o At what rate(s)?
o What specific exemption(s) should the ordinance include?

Honorable Mayor and Members City Council Meeting
of the Marina City Council of June 16, 2026
CITY COUNCIL TO RECEIVE PRESENTATION FROM TRIPEPI SMITH
REGARDING THE COMMUNITY FEEDBACK FORM AND PROVIDE
DIRECTION TO STAFF REGARDING RESERVATION ROAD AND DEL
MONTE BOULEVARD CORRIDORS AND DEL MONTE AND RESERVATION INTERSECTION IMPROVEMENTS.
REQUEST:
It is requested that the City Council:
1. Receive an informational update and presentation from Tripepi Smith regarding the community feedback form results; and
2. Receive presentation from Kimley -Horn regarding roundabout designs, traffic flow and traffic safety; and
3. Provide directions to city staff regarding short- and long-term improvements to downtown Marina, including pedestrian and bicyclist improvements and other enhancements to the Reservation Road and Del Monte Boulevard corridors and the Del Monte and Reservation intersection.
DISCUSSION:
One of the City Council’s priorities has been making improvements to Downtown Marina . In 2025 the City Council approved a new streetscape plan for Del Monte Boulevard that includes new median improvements from Highway 1 to Reservation Road which includes future roundabouts at the Reindollar and Palm Avenue intersections. The Del Monte B oulevard median improvements were put on temporary hold pending community workshops and outreach regarding a roundabout at the Del Monte-Reservation Road intersection and potential new streetscape plan along Reservation Road from Del Monte to California Ave that includes traffic calming, new bicycle and pedestrian improvements and roundabouts.
Staff needs direction whether to move forward with the proposed roundabout design at Del Monte and Reservation intersection or to make improvements to the existing signal and pedestrian crossing.
(EXHIBIT A) contains the Executive Summary of the Downtown Community Outreach form that will be presented.
The following is information from previous community workshops and meetings:
• (EXHIBIT B) May 2025: Council presentation by Kimley-Horn on the Reservation Road corridor study.
• (EXHIBIT C) March 24: “From Vision to Action: Shaping Marina Together” in-person workshop facilitated by Tripepi Smith; 52 residents present. • (EXHIBIT D) April 21: Presentation to Council by Tripepi Smith on findings from the March 24 workshop.
• (EXHIBIT E) May 19: Adoption of the Vision Zero Safety Action Plan

Downtown Community Outreach Summary
1 Executive Summary
Between March-June 2026, the City of Marina led a community outreach campaign to gather public input on the community’s priorities for the future of downtown Marina. This effort centered on how residents would like to see the city go “from vision to action” in implementing the adopted Downtown Vitalization Specific Plan.
Partnering with Tripepi Smith and other consulting partners, the City hosted an in-person community workshop on March 24 and opened an online feedback form from May 26-June 9. The City promoted these opportunities across its communications channels, including in its monthly e- newsletter, website, social media (boosted posts), printed flyers and public meeting announcements.
Overall, the city received a robust response from the community: 52 residents attended the workshop, and 231 respondents completed the feedback form. Taken together, the feedback provides valuable insights into the community’s priorities for the Reservation Road and Del Monte Boulevard corridors and vision for a vibrant, safe and welcoming downtown.
Summary of Feedback
Across both the workshop and the feedback form, residents expressed a strong desire to transform the Del Monte Boulevard and Reservation Road corridors from car-centric thoroughfares into a more cohesive, welcoming downtown. The following themes emerged as the top community priorities:
• Creating Gathering Spaces: A significant majority of form respondents (69.7%) said it is "very important" to create a downtown where people can gather and socialize rather than just drive through. Workshop participants echoed this, requesting town squares, plazas and spaces for community events like farmers markets and festivals.
• Improving Aesthetics and Streetscapes: Enhancing streetscapes and aesthetics was identified as the top priority for the next 1-5 years by 66.2% of form respondents. Both workshop attendees and form respondents noted that the current environment is dominated by large parking lots and lacks visual appeal, emphasizing the need for more tree planting, landscaping and façade improvements.
• Pedestrian and Bicycle Safety as a Core Priority: Making the area safer for non-vehicular traffic is widely supported. In the form, 62.8% of respondents rated making downtown more walkable and bike-friendly as "very important". To increase the sense of safety, 52.4% of form respondents want safer crosswalks, 46.3% want dedicated bike lanes, and 40.3% requested wider sidewalks. Workshop participants similarly prioritized better multimodal connections and highly visible pedestrian crossings.
• Traffic Calming: A combined 66.7% of form respondents strongly support or support reducing traffic speeds to improve pedestrian and bicycle safety.

Downtown Community Outreach Summary
2 • Divergent Views on Intersection Design and Roundabouts: While there is majority consensus on slowing traffic, the mechanisms for doing so remain a point of debate. Workshop participants demonstrated limited support for roundabouts, frequently expressing a preference for traditional signalized intersections. In the online form, 51.9% of respondents cited “potential to improve traffic flow” as a primary influence in their opinion of roundabouts., while 49.8% of respondents cited "concerns about driver confusion” as a primary influencer. When asked directly about using roundabouts as a circulation tool downtown, the form revealed polarized opinions that leaned overall towards support: 35.9% strongly support them, while 20.8% strongly oppose them.
• Thoughtful Development and Business Expansion: The community wants an influx of new businesses but prefers to maintain Marina's unique, approachable scale. When asked what businesses they want most, form respondents overwhelmingly chose restaurants and cafés (76.2%), followed by arts, cultural, and family-friendly spaces (58.4%), and entertainment/nightlife (48.1%). Workshop discussions highlighted a preference for "horizontal mixed-use" development. Residents advised against overly dense or urbanized vertical developments, suggesting that any vertical mixed-use be limited to preserve visual openness and the city's character.
• Strategic Implementation and Next Steps: A recurring theme in the workshop was the community's desire to see visible action in the near term. Because larger infrastructure overhauls require long-term planning and funding, residents are eager for shorter-term, lower-cost improvements such as streetscape beautification, improved lighting and enhanced crosswalk striping.
Conclusion & Recommendations
The workshop and feedback form reinforced a clear direction from the community: future improvements to the Reservation Road and Del Monte Boulevard corridors should prioritize safety, walkability and overall quality of experience, while remaining consistent with Marina’s character. Residents also emphasized the importance of taking action in the near term, alongside continued planning for larger, long-term investments.
To effectively address community hesitation regarding roundabouts, the City should implement a multi- pronged educational campaign focused on building trust and familiarity. This approach should prioritize transparent data sharing and visual simulations to clearly demonstrate the safety and traffic flow benefits of any proposed changes. Additionally, targeted public awareness initiatives should be launched to educate residents on the rules of navigating roundabouts. Finally, for any future roundabout projects downtown, a phased rollout that includes temporary "quick-build" demonstrations could allow the community to comfortably experience the new traffic patterns before any permanent infrastructure is constructed.
The input from this outreach effort will help inform the City’s ongoing efforts to refine priorities, evaluate options and consider next steps in a way that reflects community values and supports a vibrant, functional downtown.

Roundabouts are Good for Older Drivers
• Lower Speeds through roundabout
• Forgiving, mistakes not lethal
• Longer decision-making time
• No demand to accurately judge closing speeds of fast traffic • Low energy crashes
• No wide visual scans
• Simple decision-making
• By 2020, the 85-percentile design driver will be someone aged 65 or older
Benefits Comparison
Roundabout Traffic Signals
Vehicle and
Driver Safety
Eliminates high-speed crashes and reduces fatalities
and injuries by 70+%
Numerous vehicle and pedestrian conflict points on standard intersection (32 vehicle/24 pedestrian)
Pedestrian and
Bicyclist Safety
Shorter one-directional crossings provide greater
pedestrian focus and awareness
Vehicles are more focused on signal changes than on
pedestrian movements
Space/
Development
Footprint
Reduces additional right-of-way between links of
intersections
May require additional turn lanes in future if traffic volumes or traffic patterns change
Cost and
Sustainability
Less expensive than a signal for greenfield construction (new location)
Increase in fuel consumption and emissions due to stopped and delayed vehicles during red lights
Traffic Capacity Creates equal priority for all approaches Typically prioritizes mainline traffic allowing progression of high volumes approaches
Access
Management
Provides equal priority of driveway/business access Requires drivers to make additional left turns or right turns to access certain properties/businesses
Aesthetics
Provides attractive entries and gateways to
communities
Various lighting and signing distractions can impact the overall aesthetic appeal for the user
Maintenance Pavement markings, lighting, and some landscape maintenance may be more intensive than signals
Requires staff time required to maintain signals, provide retiming, and conduct repair
Roundabout Perception
Source: US Department of Transportation: Federal Highway Administration
• Pedestrian experiences an exaggerated level of
security because the signals tell them it’s safe to
cross
• Most crashes occur when drivers turn left or right
across the crosswalk while the pedestrian has a
walk indication
Safety vs. Security at Signalized
Intersections
• Pedestrian feeling of security more
closely matches their actual level of
safety
Safety vs. Security at Roundabouts

Downtown Specific Plan
Background
Guido Persicone, Community Development Director
Downtown
Area
Downtown Specific Plan Background
• A Specific Plan is a planning tool that local governments can use to implement their General Plan and to guide development in a localized area.
• General Plan Policy 5.11 Directs staff to adopt a Downtown Specific Plan
Downtown Specific Plan Goals
• Mobility - improved pedestrian and vehicular circulation • Economic Vitality - Attracts and sustains economic activity through innovation, business and social opportunities. • Housing Affordability - a variety of affordable, high quality housing options for people to live in downtown. • Cultural Diversity - a downtown where people of all incomes, ages, abilities, races and cultures feel like they belong • Community Identity - a place that provides opportunities for an attractive built environment
Project Outreach History
• 1978 - first General Plan encouraged a downtown
• 1982 - updated General Plan encouraged more commercial space in Marina • 1986 - establishing of the Redevelopment Agency with a focus on a downtown area • 1994 - Fort Ord closes. Marina loses 21% of its population, negatively impacting downtown area
• 1998 - retail leakage report prepared; found a need for a downtown and more commercial • 2001 - revitalization of the commercial core a key Council priority • 2005 - Downtown Vision and Design Guidelines adopted
• 2006 - traffic study prepared for the downtown area; discussion of reducing to two lanes • 2011 - draft downtown plan presented to the City Council • 2018-2019 - 15 Ad Hoc Meetings; 6 Planning Commission Hearings; 2 Design Review Committee meetings; 2 City Council meetings
• 2021-Present - Affordable Housing Overlay Policy Adopted; Revised Plan • October 2024 - Downtown Specific Plan adopted by City Council
Downtown Visioning
Market Realities & Peer ReviewSandra Meyer and Barry Foster - HDL Companies
HdL EconSolutions
Market and Site Assessment
•Marina overall is undergoing significant retail and economic growth •Retail leakage to neighboring cities underscore the need for a diversified retail mix to capture local spending
•Mixed-use developments that integrate retail, and entertainment components could stimulate commercial growth.
•The Downtown/Central Marina shopping area which includes four shopping centers represent opportunities for increased density, mixed use development, pedestrian improvements, public plazas and entertainment venues.
HdL Peer Review
Marina Downtown Specific Plan
•The Specific Plan provides a road map that is aspirational in its vision for the future of downtown Marina •Transformation into an urban center envisioned in the Plan seems unlikely •With some modifications and adjustments to the Plan’s land use and development regulations a more discernable, destination oriented “downtown” could transpire.
HdL Peer Review
Marina Downtown Specific Plan
The Plan envisions new development along Reservation Rd to include mixed use buildings built to the sidewalk with ground floor retail and residential above.
HdL Peer Review
Marina Downtown Specific Plan
Recommendations:
•Explore horizontal and encourage mixed-use design alternatives to facilitate redevelopment of the suburban shopping centers in the Core area.
In terms of “vitalizing” the four existing suburban styled shopping centers, an alternative land use concept to explore might be creating horizontal mixed use narrow drive aisles/interior streets that extend though the larger shopping center parcels with one to two story commercial buildings interspersed with horizontal higher density residential on each side or behind the commercial. Or the layout could have one to two story commercial buildings on one side of the drive aisle/interior street and the residential on the other side. The interior drive aisle could have sidewalks on each side, connecting to the sidewalks on Reservation Road and Del Monte Road (in the case of the Marina Square shopping center) and to the existing crosswalks. The residential could be designed with podium or underground parking to serve both the retail and residential, thus creating a more traditional downtown feel. The Specific Plan envisions the Core District to include mixed-use buildings built to the property line (Figure 4-4) with doors and windows that face wide sidewalks with shade trees and pedestrian amenities. Development standards will require new development to provide features like lighting, public art, seating, and landscaping along building frontages to enhance the streetscape and create a pedestrian oriented, urban atmosphere. The Core will feature a mix of high-density housing and neighborhood-oriented businesses in a walkable, pedestrian-scaled environment Develop a mobility plan for the Downtown to include complete streets design, pedestrian and bicycle paths, improvements to transit, parking, and transportation demand management measures Mixed-use Node District: The Land Use Plan calls for the creation of a mixed-use node at the intersection of Reservation Road and California Avenue. HdL recommends that this District be eliminated as it seems superfluous and that those 3 parcels be rezoned to Transition with reference in the development regulations that the intersection treatment at the southwest or southeast corners contain gateway signage consistent with the Design Guidelines Gateway Signage Diagram (see below) Development Code Modifications-HDL is recommending several development code modifications to successfully implement the DVSP .

1 About the City of Marina
Marina is a coastal community along Monterey
Bay in the central coast of the state. Situated
along State Route 1, Marina lies approximately
8 miles northeast of Monterey and 8 miles
west of Salinas. Incorporated in 1975, it is the
newest city on the Monterey Peninsula.
The city is known for its extensive coastal
dunes and natural shoreline, including Marina
State Beach and Fort Ord Dunes State Park,
which provide opportunities for recreation
such as hiking, cycling, fishing, and hang
gliding. Today, Marina serves as a growing
residential and educational hub within
Monterey County, with a diverse community
and an economy supported by education,
tourism, research, and service industries.

3 The Importance of Traffic Safety in Marina
This plan focuses on traffic safety on
city-owned roadways in Marina
This plan studied city-owned and maintained
roads; state highways that are owned and
operated by Caltrans are not included in
this plan, but are discussed in the Monterey
County Regional Safety Action Plan.
The City of Marina experienced 289 crashes
from 2019 to 2023, 20 of those collisions
resulted in either a fatality or a serious injury.
Each of these 289 crashes, including those
that did not result in injury or death, had a
significant impact on those involved, their
family and friends, and our greater community.
These crashes happened all across the City,
and each one under a unique set of
circumstances, but commonalities from the
data emerged.
4 What is a Safety Action Plan?
A Safety Action Plan is a roadmap for
prioritizing and investing in the projects,
places, and efforts that are most likely to
reduce the risk of fatal and serious injury
crashes. This plan is part of a larger effort led
by the Transportation Agency of Monterey
County to develop regional and agency-
specific action plans. Development of these
plans is funded by a grant awarded by the
U.S. Department of Transportation through
the Safe Streets and Roads for All program.
The Monterey County Regional Safety Action
Plan provides a broad view of the safety
needs across the entire region, and outlines
high priority strategies for addressing
risky behaviors and reducing crash risks
countywide. Individual agency plans, like
this one, provide a more localized look at
the unique safety needs and projects that
are important within each community.

MONTEREY COUNTY REGIONAL VISION ZERO SAFETY ACTION PLAN FIGURE 2. REGIONAL AND AGENCY-SPECIFIC PLANS
5 OUR SAFETY VISION AND GOAL
TAMC and the City of Marina believe
that everyone deserves to travel safely.
To achieve this vision, TAMC has set an
ambitious and achievable goal to reduce
fatal and serious injuries by 30% by 2030
with the ultimate goal of eliminating fatal
and serious injuries by 2040. This Monterey
County Regional Vision Zero target was
officially adopted by the TAMC Board of
Directors on March 25, 2026.
WHAT IS VISION ZERO?
Vision Zero is a global strategy to eliminate
traffic deaths and serious injuries in a certain
timeframe by treating them as preventable
events. In the U.S., the Vision Zero strategy
led to the adoption of the Federal Highway
Administration’s (FHWA) Safe System
Approach – a holistic roadway safety guide
that recognizes that humans make mistakes,
that our transportation network should be
designed to prevent fatal mistakes from
happening in the first place, and to minimize
the injury severity when a crash does occur.
WHAT IS A VISION ZERO SAFETY
ACTION PLAN AND WHY NOW?
Every year, approximately 40,000 people lose
their lives traveling on U.S. roadways. From
2019 to 2023 there were 289 total crashes
in the City of Marina. Of those crashes,
20 resulted in a serious or minor injury.
These are not merely statistics – these
are members of our community, our family,
friends, kids, neighbors, and colleagues.
The City of Marina is committed to reducing
and eventually eliminating the most severe
crashes in our city. This commitment takes
shape with effective strategies, policies,
programs, and projects that can be
implemented by the City and partner
agencies to reduce the risk of fatal and
serious injury crashes. This plan, in
coordination with the people and plans
developed for each agency in Monterey
County, will help us achieve our ambitious
regional Vision Zero goal together.
Zero is our goal

WHAT IS THE SAFE SYSTEM APPROACH?
The Safe System Approach is a framework
for effectively managing the diverse inherent
risks within the transportation system. As part
of this approach, multiple layers of protection
are created to prevent crashes and reduce
harm when crashes do occur. It is centered
on the idea that we all have a role to play in
creating a safer transportation system, and
achieving Vision Zero requires that we all do
our part to keep ourselves and others safe.
THERE ARE SIX KEY PRINCIPLES OF THE USDOT SAFE SYSTEM APPROACH:
1 Death and Serious Injuries are Unacceptable
2 Humans Make Mistakes
3 Humans are Vulnerable
4 Responsibility is Shared
5 Safety is Proactive
6 Redundancy is Crucial
FIGURE 3. USDOT SAFE SYSTEM APPROACH
7 Each of the six key principles in the Safe System Approach are supported by five main objectives:
1 Safer People Consider and address the safety of all road users, including those who walk, bike, drive, take transit, or travel by other modes.
2 Safer Roads Engineer roads to prioritize the safety of all road users, especially vulnerable road users, to minimize human mistakes, and to account for injury tolerance. 3 Safer Travel Options
(Safer Vehicles)
Expand the availability of safer travel options, including multimodal transportation networks, safe and reliable transit options, and advanced vehicle design and technologies. 4 Safer Speeds Promote safer speeds through context-appropriate roadway design, education, outreach, and enforcement.
5 Post-Crash Care
Enhance the survivability of a crash by making it easier and faster to receive emergency medical care and access trauma centers, create a safe working environment for emergency responders, and prevent secondary crashes.
While not yet an element of the USDOT Safe System wheel, the concept of Safer Land Use is gaining attention across the industry, and several states including California, Oregon, and Washington are considering adding it as a sixth element of the Safe System Approach. Land use decisions shape many aspects of the transportation system, including the ability for people to choose safer travel options and make fewer and shorter trips, reducing their exposure to crash risk.
8 SS4A REQUIRED ELEMENTS OF A
SAFETY ACTION PLAN:
Leadership commitment to a “Zero” goal
Involvement of a task force
Data-driven safety analysis
Robust public engagement
Assessment of policies, programs,
and processes
Prioritized projects that reflect
the Safe System Approach
Ongoing transparency and reporting
Developing this Plan
To help local agencies develop plans and implement roadway safety improvements that incorporate the Safe System Approach, a once-in-a-generation federal grant program known as Safe Streets and Roads for All (SS4A) was developed to award demonstration and implementation funds to state and local agencies. The SS4A Grant Program is funded by the Infrastructure Investment and Jobs Act starting in fiscal year 2022 and ends in fiscal year 2026. With SS4A funds, the TAMC has led the effort to develop regional, municipal, and rural county level action plans to help reduce and eventually eliminate fatal and serious injury crashes in Monterey County.
DATA-DRIVEN ANALYSIS
The cornerstone of this Plan is a data-driven
evaluation of safety needs and effective
solutions. We studied reported crash data, lived
experiences from community members, travel
patterns, and demographics to understand
where and why fatal and serious crashes are
happening. We then paired these findings with
national research, best practices, and local
knowledge to identify feasible, practical, locally
supported ways to save lives. More information
on the analysis and findings can be found in the
Where and Why Are Traffic Crashes Happening
and Plan of Action sections.

9 ENGAGING WITH MARINA
The project team conducted two rounds of public outreach through workshops, pop-up events, and an online survey and comment map. The first round, held in Spring 2025, focused on understanding the challenges and opportunities related to transportation and safety in Marina.
Feedback from the community during this phase was incorporated into the planning process and helped shape potential solutions.
The second round, conducted in Fall 2025,
presented the recommended challenge areas
and solutions back to the community for
input. Community members could review
the recommendations, project ideas, and
share their feedback.
The City of Marina had a total of 49 comments
received through in-person comments, survey
responses, and the interactive comment map
throughout both phases of outreach. Figure 5
shows the board set up at the Phase 2 pop-up
event in Marina.

10 Safety Concerns of Marina
Concerns were shared about unfamiliar drivers
in the area during tourism seasons, aggressive
driving, speeding, congestion, roadway
maintenance (especially pot holes and debris
from litter and road kill), and narrow lanes along
curves Figure 7 is a word cloud of the most
common words related to roadway safety that
community members in Marina said or wrote
down during the outreach process.
Community members expressed support for
safety improvements such as roundabouts and
improved maintenance and implementation of
pavement markings and striping.
During Phase 2 of the outreach, community
members voted on which challenge areas were
most important to making Marina streets safer.
The following challenge areas were identified
by community members in Marina as being a
priority to improve safety:
• Aggressive Driving
• Bicyclists
• Pedestrians
• Intersections
• Impaired Driving
• Distracted Driving
TAMC VISION ZERO TASK FORCE
The Monterey County Vision Zero Task Force
was made up of safety partners across the
community, including representatives from
schools, medical and emergency response
professionals, community organizations, public
works, law enforcement, and fire departments.
Three task force groups were created to
capture the diverse area and interests in
Monterey County – the South County,
Peninsula, and Regional task forces. Task
Force membership included a mix of urban,
rural, and regional interests as participants
shared their input and experiences not just
where they work, but also where they live and
travel. This Plan incorporates safety concerns,
feedback, and suggestions for the City of
Marina that were gathered from the Peninsula
and Regional Task Force groups.

11 Where and Why are Traffic Crashes Happening?
To understand traffic safety risks and needs, we studied reported crash data for the most recent five years of available data, spanning January 1, 2019 through December 31, 2023. Crashes with no reported injuries, also referred to as property damage only crashes, were not included in the analysis.
CRASH TYPES
Understanding the most common types of
collisions that resulted in fatalities and serious
injuries on rural roadways can help tailor safety
improvements to address those patterns.
CRASHES INVOLVING
VULNERABLE ROAD USERS
Vulnerable road users (VRUs) include both
pedestrians and bicyclists.
Over five years, 289 crashes resulting in an injury

4 *Contributing factors often overlap and are not mutually exclusive.
PRIMARY CONTRIBUTING FACTORS
Across the US, over 90% of crashes are
the result of human error
There is rarely a single cause of a crash, but
rather a combination of factors related to the
driver, vehicle, environment, or other road
users. The following summarizes trends in
the primary factor reported in crashes of all
severities on City of Marina roads.*
12 HIGH INJURY NETWORK
The High Injury Network, or HIN, identifies the
roadways that have experienced the highest
number and severity of crashes. The HIN helps
focus the safety priorities and investments in
the areas with the highest need. A map of the
HIN is shown in Figure 8.

13 Challenge Areas
Challenge areas are not locations. They
represent the underlying crash patterns that
are most contributing to fatal and serious injury
crashes. In an environment of limited funding,
we must focus our resources on the efforts
that will make the biggest difference, and
emphasis areas help us do that. Challenge
areas provide a strategic framework for
developing and implementing safety
strategies, prioritizing capital projects,
guiding enforcement and education.
We applied a data-driven approach to selecting
challenge areas. We started with the list of
16 Challenge Areas outlined in the California
Strategic Highway Safety Plan, and used local
crash patterns and community input to select
the subset that best reflect local needs.
The City of Marina challenge areas are
focused on those that reflect the unique needs
of the City, while the Monterey County Region
plan captures those that are more broadly
applicable across the entire region.

OF FATAL AND SERIOUS
INJURY CRASHES
IN MARINA (HIGHER THAN

Pedestrians are some of the most vulnerable
users of a roadway network, and many
younger and older people travel on foot,
which compounds this vulnerability. Even if
their primary mode of travel is by car, everyone
is a pedestrian at some point during their trip,
whether to get to a bus stop, a parking spot,
or even the mailbox. Crashes involving
pedestrians can occur at intersections, at
mid-block locations, or along streets where
there is not a safe place to walk. Because
pedestrians aren’t protected by a vehicle,
even low-speed crashes can cause serious
injury or death.

A bicycle-involved crash involves instances
where a motor vehicle is involved in a crash
with a bicyclist, including e-bikes and their
riders. Bicyclists are also considered
vulnerable road users along with pedestrians
Even when most trips are made by car, people
still become vulnerable road users at some
point, whether biking to school, walking to a
bus stop, heading to a parking space, or simply
checking the mailbox. Many crashes involving
vulnerable users occur at intersections or on
roads that lack safe walking or biking space;
even low-speed collisions can result in severe
injuries or fatalities.

OF FATAL AND SERIOUS
INJURY CRASHES
IN MARINA (HIGHER THAN
STATEWIDE AVERAGE)
Impaired driving crashes include all reported
crashes where any evidence of alcohol or drug
use (both illegal and prescription) is present,
even if the driver was not over the legal limit.
Impairment slows reaction time, affects
judgment, and makes it harder to stay in a lane,
follow signals, or respond to hazards. Drivers
who are impaired tend to make other risky
choices, like speeding or not using a seatbelt,
increasing the likelihood of severe injuries
or fatalities.
Distracted driving is one of the most
preventable threats to roadway safety. It occurs
whenever a driver diverts attention from the
primary task of driving—whether to read or send
a text message, adjust in-vehicle technology,
eat, interact with passengers, or focus on
something outside the vehicle. Distractions
generally fall into three categories: visual (taking
eyes off the road), manual (taking hands off the
wheel), and cognitive (taking the mind off
driving). Distracted driving is also one of the
most underreported contributing factors to
crashes, as it is difficult to confirm without a
witness or confession.
When a driver is distracted, reaction time slows,
situational awareness diminishes, and the
ability to detect and respond to hazards is
compromised. In just a brief moment of
inattention, rear-end collisions, lane departures,
or missed traffic signals can occur. These
incidents can lead to crashes with severe
outcomes, particularly for vulnerable road
users such as people walking and bicycling.
16 AGING DRIVERS

Older drivers (age 65+) require a different
approach, one that balances support for
continued mobility while addressing age-related
changes that can affect driving performance
and injury tolerances. Older drivers tend to be
safer and experienced, however changes in
vision, reaction time and cognitive processing
can make complex driving environments more
challenging to navigate. Besides driving
performance, injury outcomes tend to be more
severe for aging adults when a crash does
occur. Designing our roadways to account for
these limitations, as well as increasing programs
and policies that support education, training,
and travel choices for aging adults can reduce
the risk of crashes.
YOUNG DRIVERS
7%
OF FATAL AND SERIOUS
INJURY CRASHES
IN MARINA (HIGHER THAN

Y oung drivers (are 15-24) are still developing
critical decision making skills and often have
limited behind the wheel experience, which
can increase the risk of crashes, particularly
those involving speed, distraction or peer
influence. Comprehensive driver education
can play a key role. High-quality programs that
emphasize hazard recognition, defensive
driving techniques, and the consequences of
risky behaviors—such as distracted or impaired
driving—help establish safe habits early.
LANE DEPARTURE
28%
OF FATAL AND SERIOUS
INJURY CRASHES
IN MARINA (HIGHER THAN
STATEWIDE AVERAGE)
Lane and road departure crashes happen
when a driver drifts out of their lane or leaves
the roadway entirely, often due to impairment,
distraction, speeding, fatigue, or losing control.
Lane departure crashes often result in
sideswipe or head-on collisions when a vehicle
crosses into another lane, while road
departure crashes are typically single-vehicle
crashes that result in the vehicle hitting fixed
objects, rolling over, or landing in a ditch.
17 Plan of Action
Achieving Vision Zero by eliminating traffic
deaths and severe injuries will take real action—
doing nothing is not an option. However, we
also must recognize that the City of Marina has
limited resources, and we must focus on the
efforts with the biggest safety benefits,
measure progress, and make informed
decisions to improve safety for everyone.
The recommendations in this Plan are meant
to guide future work, not lock the City into a
fixed set of actions. They provide a starting
point for funding requests and project
design, and they will be updated over time
as conditions change, new funding becomes
available, projects are completed, and more
community input is received. In that way, this
Safety Action Plan is not just a summary of
current conditions—it’s a practical tool to help
the City of Marina make steady progress
toward safer roads.
The following sections summarize the
recommended efforts and projects that are
most likely to save lives in Marina, as well as a
guide for implementing those projects and
monitoring progress.
EXISTING EFFORTS
Providing a safe transportation system has been
a guiding principle for Marina for many years. In
2022, the City adopted a Local Road Safety
Plan, which allowed the City to pursue grant
funding for safety projects and also set
a strong foundation for this safety action plan.
The City also has an Active Transportation Plan
and a Safe Routes to School Plan, which focus
on improving safety and mobility for those who
walk and bike around the City. Many other
City plans, programs, and efforts highlight the
importance of transportation safety in Marina,
including the 2045 General Plan Update,
which includes specific goals related to
roadway safety and mobility.
• PAR-10(E): Ensure that any new beach
parking areas located on the east side of
Hwy 1 are connected to coastal access
points via alternative modes of
transportation such as MST bus routes,
shuttles and bicycle/pedestrian trails.
• LUD-5: The City shall encourage mulit-
modal streets that are ADA accessible,
transit supportive and integrate safe
bicycle lanes and other modes of
transportation facilitate coastal access
for everyone.
• EJ-7: The City shall prioritize
improvements to walking and biking
infrastructure to ensure safe, accessible,
and convenient routes to coastal access
points including parks and the beach.
These improvements may include, but
are not limited to, the creation of bike
lanes, sidewalks, crosswalks, and traffic
calming measures, with the goal of
promoting sustainable transportation and
equitable access for all residents.
• EJ-8: The City will support Monterey
Salinas Transit’s expansion of public
transit service in the form of flat rates
and increased headway frequency to the
City’s coast.
The City continues to work toward these goals
through construction of road improvements,
regular maintenance activities, studying and
planning for future needs, and pursuing grant
funding for future projects. In particular, the
City is developing a project along Del Monte
Blvd that includes median installation in Phase
1 and a set of roundabouts in Phase 2.
18 PRIORITIZING INVESTMENTS
Recognizing the reality of the City’s limited resources and inability to complete all recommended projects, investments should be prioritized, based on the following data-driven criteria to maximize the potential safety benefits (listed in order of importance). 1 High Injury Network Focus
Highest priority should be given to projects located on or directly addressing corridors and intersections identified on the High Injury Network. These locations represent a disproportionate share of fatal and serious injury crashes and offer the greatest opportunity for measurable safety benefits. 2 Systemic Safety Opportunity
Projects that can be implemented systemically to benefit a large proportion of the community, such as speed management, signing and striping upgrades, and low-cost intersection enhancements, should be prioritized to proactively reduce risk before crashes occur. 3 Proximity to Schools
and Youth Activity Areas
Projects near K–12 schools, childcare facilities, parks, and other youth-oriented destinations should be prioritized, particularly those that improve walking and bicycling safety. This includes improvements aligned with Safe Routes to School programs and corridors with documented student travel demand. 4 Vulnerable Road Users
Priority should be given to projects that improve safety for pedestrians, bicyclists, older adults, people with disabilities, and transit users. Locations with a history of pedestrian- or bicycle-involved crashes, or where vulnerable users are exposed to high-speed or high-volume traffic, should rank highly. 5 Disadvantaged
Community Considerations
Projects serving communities disproportionately impacted by traffic injuries, areas of persistent poverty, or communities with limited access to safe transportation options should be elevated. 6 Feasibility and Readiness Project readiness, cost-effectiveness, ease of implementation, and compatibility with planned roadway or capital projects should be considered to maximize near-term safety benefits. 19 SAFE SYSTEM STRATEGIES
When we think of ways to improve safety, many people think only of engineering projects. However, through the Safe System Approach, we know that achieving Vision Zero will require a variety of efforts and investments that are much more broad than a list of capital projects.
THE STRATEGIES ARE INTENDED TO COMPLIMENT AND SUPPORT ENGINEERING PROJECTS IN THREE KEY WAYS:
1 Elevate the importance of traffic safety
within our agency
2 Make it easier to fund or build
safety improvements
3 Encourage safe behaviors and foster a stronger
culture of traffic safety in our community

Across the High Injury Network, there are a variety of safety needs that can be addressed through a combination of systemic (proactive) and hotspot (reactive) projects.
Systemic projects aim to treat one or more
underlying risk factors by installing a low-cost
treatment at several similar locations. An
example of a systemic project would be
upgrading warning signs at multiple
stop-controlled intersections that have
limited sight distance.
Hotspot projects, on the other hand, tend to
include higher cost solutions that improve safety
at a single location where there is a high risk for
crashes and/or where there has been a history
of severe crashes. An example of a hotspot
project would be installing a roundabout at
a stop-controlled intersection with a history
of multiple fatal and severe injury crashes.
The following project tables list the hotspot
and systemic solutions that address the
primary crash patterns associated with fatal
and serious injury crashes on Marina roads,
with a focus on roadways that are on the
High Injury Network.
TABLE 2. MARINA HOTSPOT SAFETY PROJECT
PROJECT LOCATION PROJECT DESCRIPTION TIMELINE
Del Monte Blvd / Palm Ave
Improve intersection visibility with retroreflective backplates and high visibility pavement markings and signs. Add overhead lane assignment signs and add cat-tracks through intersection. Add leading pedestrian interval (LPI) and yield lines ahead of crosswalks (particularly on west leg/trail crossing). If delays or queues are uneven, adjust signal timing to balance flows prior to roundabout installation.
Near-term
Reservation Road / De
Forest Road
Recommended improvements include adding marked crosswalks on all legs to improve pedestrian visibility and implementing a Leading Pedestrian Interval (LPI) to reduce conflicts with turning vehicles. Advance stop bars, such as bicycle boxes, will aid in improving bicyclist positioning, and better intersection lighting to enhance nighttime safety.
Raised medians or refuge islands on Reservation Road will provide safer pedestrian crossings. Upgrades to signal hardware, including improved lenses and backplates with retroreflective borders, will increase signal visibility and driver awareness.
Near-term
Del Monte Blvd / Palm Ave
Installing a roundabout would improve intersection safety and operations by reducing conflict points and lowering vehicle speeds. This design helps decrease the likelihood and severity of crashes, particularly angle and head-on collisions, while also improving traffic flow by minimizing delays and eliminating the need for signal control.
Long-term
Del Monte Boulevard /
Beach Road
Recommended roundabout improvements include installing delineators, reflectors, or object markers to better define the roadway and improve visibility. Add dynamic or variable speed warning signs to help reduce approach speeds. A road diet, reducing travel lanes from four to three while adding a center turn lane and bike lanes, to calm traffic and improve multimodal safety. Installing a fence in the median on the northbound approach will aid in managing sight lines and reduce potential conflicts.
Near-term
22 In addition to location-specific strategies, the Plan identifies opportunities for systemic, citywide safety improvements on Marina roadways, particularly along corridors that are part of the City’s HIN. Systemic treatments applied consistently across similar roadway types can proactively reduce crash risk, even in locations with few reported crashes.
TABLE 3. MARINA SYSTEMIC SAFETY PROJECTS
SYSTEMIC TREATMENTS PROJECT DESCRIPTION TIMELINE
Systemic Traffic Signal
Improvements
Systemic signal upgrades — retroreflective backplates, overhead lane assignment signs, and Leading Pedestrian Intervals along Del Monte Boulevard. Review and update pedestrian walk times at signalized intersections. Near-term Speed Management
Implement speed feedback signs in school zones and High Injury Network corridors (Reservation Rd, Del Monte Blvd, Hwy 1, Imjin Pkwy) that collect data. This information can help the Police Department identify when speeding is most frequent and support more targeted enforcement.
Near-term
Reservation Road
Corridor Improvements
Corridor-wide improvements include enhancing signal hardware, such as lenses, backplates with retroreflective borders, mounting, size, and number, to improve visibility, along with optimizing signal timing (coordination, phases, and intervals) to improve traffic flow. Safety can be further increased by providing Advanced Dilemma-Zone Detection for high-speed approaches and installing emergency vehicle pre-emption systems to support faster response times. Additional measures include installing raised pavement markers and striping throughout intersections to improve guidance, modifying signal phasing to implement a Leading Pedestrian Interval (LPI) to reduce pedestrian conflicts, adding dynamic or variable speed warning signs to manage speeds, and installing raised medians (refuge islands) to enhance pedestrian safety.
Near-term
Imjin Parkway/2nd Ave,
California Ave, All roadway
segments of Imjin Road to

Corridor-wide improvements include improving signal hardware, such as lenses, backplates with retroreflective borders, mounting, size, and number, to enhance visibility, along with optimizing signal timing (coordination, phases, and intervals) to improve traffic flow. Providing Advanced Dilemma-Zone Detection will increase safety on high-speed approaches, while installing emergency vehicle pre-emption systems will support faster response times. Additional measures, including raised pavement markers and striping throughout intersections and dynamic or variable speed warning signs, will further improve driver awareness and overall roadway safety.
Near-term
Systemic Traffic Signal
Improvements
This systemwide strategy includes implementing systemic signal upgrades, such as retroreflective backplates, overhead lane assignment signs, and Leading Pedestrian Intervals (LPIs) along Del Monte Boulevard, to improve visibility, guidance, and pedestrian safety. In addition, reviewing and updating pedestrian walk times at signalized intersections would help ensure adequate crossing time and enhance accessibility for all users.
Near-term
Speed Management Plan
Implementing speed feedback signs in school zones and along High Injury Network corridors, including Reservation Road, Del Monte Boulevard, Highway 1, and Imjin Parkway, will help raise driver awareness and reduce speeding. By collecting data on vehicle speeds and patterns, these systems can also provide valuable information to the Police Department, allowing for more targeted and effective enforcement during peak speeding times.
Near-term
23 RESOURCES AND TOOLS
Our understanding of safety strategies,
their effectiveness, and best practices for
implementation are continually evolving.
The following state and federal resources
may be useful when identifying safety
strategies for a specific location, underlying
risk, or crash pattern:
• FHWA Proven Safety Countermeasures
• FHWA Proven Safety Countermeasures
in Rural Communities
• NHTSA Countermeasures that Work
• USDOT National Roadway Safety Strategy
• Caltrans Local Roadway Safety Manual
• Safe System Roadway Design Hierarchy
We recognize that much of this plan is based
on a snapshot of reported crashes, and that
new high-crash locations and crash patterns
may emerge in the coming years. The
Monterey County Regional Safety Action Plan
includes several tools and resources that
can be used to diagnose safety risks and
find effective solutions.
Safe System Toolbox: A comprehensive
list of safety countermeasures, expected
safety benefits, and considerations for
implementation.
Case Studies: 24 example case studies
of locations throughout Monterey
County that highlight common crash
trends, site characteristics, and
potential countermeasures.
24 FUNDING SOURCES
Implementing this Plan will require assembling
funding from multiple levels – federal, state,
regional, and local, based on project type
(capital vs. programmatic), sponsor eligibility
(TAMC vs. local jurisdictions), and readiness
(quick-build vs. construction). The 2026 TAMC
Regional Transportation Improvement Program
(RTIP) confirms that Monterey County projects
already draw from a broad mix of sources,
including federal formula programs state
programs, and local funds.
Federal Funding Sources
Safe Streets and Roads for All (SS4A) – USDOT
SS4A is the primary federal funding source
for Vision Zero and Safe System efforts. It
provides about $1B/year (2022–2026) for
local agencies to complete safety planning
and deliver safety projects. Grant types
include Planning (about $100K–$1M) and
Implementation (about $1M–$20M, requires
an adopted safety action plan). A 20% local
match is required and may include in-kind
contributions. SS4A is well suited for systemic
safety improvements, Safe Routes to School,
and education/enforcement programs.
Highway Safety Improvement Program (HSIP)
HSIP funds infrastructure projects with proven
crash reduction benefits, including signals,
striping/signing, crosswalks, beacons, rumble
strips, guardrails, and other countermeasures.
Projects using a systemic approach, targeting
the High Injury Network, and aligning with
Vision Zero priorities are typically most
competitive. Cycles occur about every
1–2 years (next anticipated in 2026).
INFRA Competitive Grants – FHWA
INFRA supports large, corridor-scale projects
with strong regional or national benefits.
Projects combining safety with freight, transit,
and multimodal access may be competitive.
IIJA / Bipartisan Infrastructure Law (BIL)
The IIJA expanded federal transportation
funding, including SS4A and major competitive
programs such as BUILD, which can support
safety, multimodal access, and state-of-good-
repair improvements.
Transportation Alternatives (TA) Set-Aside – FHWA
TA supports smaller-scale pedestrian and
bicycle projects, including Safe Routes to
School, trails, sidewalks, bikeways, crossings,
and traffic calming—especially near schools
and in high pedestrian activity areas.
State of California Funding Sources
Active Transportation Program (ATP)
ATP is California’s primary competitive
program for walking and biking projects
and related planning and safety programs,
including Safe Routes to School and
education/enforcement efforts.
SB 1 (Road Repair and Accountability Act)
SB 1 provides ongoing state funding for
roadway rehabilitation and safety upgrades.
Key categories include local streets/roads
maintenance, bicycle and pedestrian
improvements (often through ATP), and
planning grants.
State Transportation Improvement Program (STIP)
STIP funds major multi-year capital projects
on state and local networks. Projects with
clear safety benefits and regional mobility/
connectivity value may be good candidates.
California Office of Traffic Safety (OTS) Grants
OTS provides annual grants for non-
infrastructure safety strategies such as
education, enforcement, emergency response
support, and safety campaigns, based
on documented crash and safety needs.
25 Programming + Local Funding
RTIP/TIP Programming
The Safety Action Plan should serve as a
project pipeline, helping move projects into
RTIP/TIP programming for construction using
sources such as HSIP, ATP, STIP, and SB 1.
Local Revenues + Development Fees
Local funds are critical for grant match, quick-
build pilots, and near-term improvements.
Development impact fees and mitigation
funding can also support safety upgrades
in growth areas and high-need corridors.
MONITORING PERFORMANCE
A core element of Vision Zero is the
commitment to accountability and
transparency, ensuring that the City of Marina’s
progress toward eliminating fatal and serious
injury crashes can be measured, monitored,
and communicated clearly to the public.
Performance measures provide the framework
for tracking that progress over time and
evaluating whether the strategies and
investments outlined in this Plan are producing
meaningful results.
As strategies and projects are implemented,
it is vital to regularly monitor citywide safety
performance to determine the effectiveness
of those efforts, and make adjustments to
future investments and priorities, as needed.
Moving forward, the City of Marina will use
the following performance measures to track
the successful implementation of this plan.
Number of fatal and serious injury crashes
on City roadways (total)
Number of fatal and serious injury crashes
by challenge area:
• At intersections
• Involving pedestrians
These performance measures can be tracked
in coordination with TAMC’s planned safety
performance report, which will be prepared
and shared annually. TAMC is in the process of
establishing a regional crash database that will
allow for more timely, accurate, and accessible
local crash data, and will also allow for
improved regional data sharing capabilities.
26 A Call to Action
We all have a shared responsibility to keep ourselves and others safe when we travel Infrastructure matters, but so do the choices we make every day Whether you are behind the wheel, on a bike, or walking, each of us plays a role by slowing down, staying alert, and respecting the rules of the road Together, we can build a culture where getting home safely is the expectation, every time, for everyone

APPLICATION FOR INSTALLATION OF NEW SIGNAGE AND 2)
REBRANDING FROM SHELL OIL TO GULF OIL AT THE EXISTING
CITY-OWNED SITE LOCATED AT 2700 IMJIN PARKWAY ; AND FIND
THAT THIS ACTION IS EXEMPT FROM CEQA PURSUANT TO
SECTION 15061(B(3) OF THE CEQA GUIDELINES.
RECOMMENDATION: It is recommended that the City Council consider:
1. Adopting Resolution No. 2026 -, approving the authorization of 1) Submittal of an application for installation of new signage at the subject site; and 2) Rebranding from Shell Oil to Gulf Oil.
PROJECT HISTORY
Subject Site
2700 Imjin Parkway (Assessor’s Parcel Number APN 031 -101-039-000) is situated on City - owned land located adjacent to, and south of, the intersection of Imjin Parkway and Abrams Drive, outside t he limits of the City of Marina and within the jurisdiction of Monterey County.
Currently, tenant AJ Petroleum , a private entity, leases the property, including both Fort Ord Market and associated on-site fueling (gasoline) station, from the City of Marina. The existing tenant intends to rebrand the existing site from Shell Oil to Gulf Oil.
Background
In early 2026, project proponent Maria Valenzuela of AA Signs, Inc. initiated submittal of a n application for new signage at the extraterritorial City -owned lot leased by Shell Oil/Gulf Oil .
On February 5, 2026, City staff receive d correspondence from staff of the County of Monterey , inquiring about the agency responsible for review and approval of proposed installation of new signage at the subject site. On March 6, 2026, City staff subsequently received correspondence from Ms. Valenzuela, expressing concern regarding perceptions of delay and discrepancy in information provided about processing of the sign permit application pursued.
On March 13, 2026, City staff forwarded to the project applicant a memorandum providing information regarding permit application submittal procedures and requirements. On March 20, 2026, staff received feedback from County Planning staff relaying that the proposed height and size of signage would appear not to conform to regulations of the County of Monterey and thus could not be approved by the County. Since that time, City staff have provided ongoing guidance to the sign permit applicant regarding the nature and timing of permit processing intended to facilitate expeditious review.
1 Jurisdictional Authority and Interagency Coordination Although the City of Marina owns the property, because it is located within Monterey County boundaries and not the City of Marina boundaries, the application requires review by the County of Monterey as responsible jurisdiction. City staff has coordinated closely with County staff regarding revisions to proposed signage design necessary for compliance with applicable standards to foster timely application processing and approval.
City Council Review
Submittal of a permit application on City -owned property requires that the City consent, in writing, its authorization for submittal of such application. Additionally, the existing lease agreement authorizing the current business’ tenancy of the subject site states definitively that approval by the City must be provided for placement of any new signage on the property.
Although Section 20.6 of the Lease authorizes the City Manager to give such consent on behalf of the Lessor, out of an abundance of caution and in the interest of transparency, staff has brought the matter to the City Council for review, and approval of, proposed signage design and application submittal, in addition to rebranding of the subject site from Shell Oil to Gulf Oil.
The information contained herein is presented in order to apprise the City Council of proposed changes and to provide the opportunity for consideration and feedback regarding any desired modification.
ANALYSIS
Initial Proposal
As originally proposed, the project scope of work encompassed installation of a new pylon sign of 20 feet in height and 120 square feet in sign area, new signage proposed to be affixed to the existing all-weather canopy, along with placement of new building wall signage. An excerpt of plans submitted, including the pylon sign originally proposed, appears below:
2 In response to the plans provided, s taff relayed to the permit applicant that signage as proposed would require review and approval by the City in conjunction with proposed rebranding . City staff additionally expressed concern regarding the proposed size and height of the signage and informed the sign permit applicant that, based on correspondence with County of Monterey staff, the submitted scope of work would likely not conform to County regulations. Correspondence from County staff presented the following:
In regard to the recent application to replace existing signage at the Imjin Road gas station and convenience store, Building Permit No. 26CP00056, it is County staff’s position that the proposal is inconsistent with the County’s sign regulations. According to the County’s Regulations for Signs: “Where signs are allowable under the regulations of the zoning districts identified in Sections 21.60.070 and 21.60.080, the total area of such signs shall not exceed thirty-five (35) square feet in the aggregate. This limitation in total area shall apply even though the use has frontage on two or more streets.” In the proposal under Building Permit No. 26CP00056, there are three businesses shown on the subject parcel. At this time, the signage exceeds the allowable 35 square feet aggregate per business and will need to be reduced in order to comply with this section.
Additionally, the free -standing sign that is sited for replacement exceeds the allowable height for free standing signs. Within the County’s regulations for signs, it is indicated the height of the sign may not exceed six feet if freestanding, or if attached to a structure, the sign may not be higher than the roof line or parapet of the wall. Currently, Building Permit Plans No. 26CP00056 indicates a proposed replacement sign with a height of 20 feet as measured from average natural grade.
At this time, County staff cannot support the replacement signage project as proposed unless such modifications are made to the plans.
Revised Proposal
Following outreach from City staff, the sign permit applicant revised the proposed signage design, then presenting two potential designs, as follows:
Option 1
3 Option 2
Preliminary Approval by County
Coordination with County staff has determined that the proposed scope of work included in Option 1 would conform to applicable County regulations, and County staff have preliminarily approved the applicant’s most recent Planning permit application, pending authorization by the City.
Proposed Rebranding
In conjunction with new signage proposed , the City Attorney has confirmed that the lease in place mandates that tenant AJ Petroleum obtain permission from the City to rebrand the existing fueling station from Shell Oil to Gulf Oil. As set forth above, the lease authorizes the City Manager to consent to the signage and rebranding proposed. However, in the interest of transparency and the interest in the property at issue, staff has brought this matter for City Council for review and decision. Staff recommend that the City Council authorize such approval.
ENVIROMENTAL REVIEW
None of the following, including 1) authorization of application for submittal of new signage at an extraterritorial City -owned site, 2) approval of rebranding of an existing store, or 3) consideration of revocation of lease held by an existing tenant at a City -owned property constitutes a project subject to provisions of the California Environmental Quality Act pursuant to the commonsense exemption found in section 15061(b)(3) of the CEQA Guidelines.
FISCAL IMPACT
None.
CONCLUSION
City staff recommend that the City Council grant authorization for submittal of the application for new signage to the County of Monterey and approve rebranding of the existing fueling station from Shell Oil to Gulf Oil, fostering enhancement in utility and aesthetics of the City - owned site.

Honorable Mayor and Members City Council Meeting
of the Marina City Council of June 16, 2026
RECOMMENDATION TO CONDUCT FIRST READING AND INTRODUCE FOR ADOPTION ORDINANCE NO. 2026 -, ADDING CHAPTER 1.16 (CUSTODY AND USE OF CITY SEAL, CITY LOGO, AND CITY INSIGNIA) TO TITLE 1 (GENERAL
PROVISIONS) OF THE MARINA MUNICIPAL CODE
RECOMMENDATION:
It is recommended that the City Council:
1. Conduct the first reading of Ordinance No. 2026-, adding Chapter 1.16 (Custody and Use of City Seal, City Logo, and City Insignia) to Title 1 (General Provisions) of the Marina Municipal Code; waive further reading; and introduce the ordinance.
BACKGROUND:
The City Logo and Official City Seal communicate the authority and authenticity of City actions, and their unauthorized or misleading use can confuse residents, harm the City ’s reputation, and expose the City to risk.
The City has taken multiple steps over the past two decades to develop and protect its identity:
a. In 1997, the City Council considered registration of the City logo (the predecessor 1975 badge) as a trade name with the California Secretary of State. The Secretary of State declined to register the design on the ground that the City lacked qualifying goo ds or services. The Council subsequently adopted a Permit Application process requiring Council approval for third-party use.
b. Between 2003 and 2008, the Council approved discrete third-party uses by resolution, including the Marina Rotary Club (Res. No. 2003 -132), Royer Printing/Piper Jaffray (Res. No. 2005 -205), Monterey Peninsula College (Res. No. 2006 -143), Monterey Peninsula Chamber of Commerce (Res. No. 2006 -180), and the U.S. Army Garrison Command, Presidio of Monterey (Res. No. 2008-84).
c. On January 8, 2008, the Council approved the design concept for the current City Logo and Official City Seal (Res. No. 2008-09); on October 7, 2008, the Council adopted the Citywide Public Sign and Identity Program Guidelines (Res. No. 2008-205). d. On November 17, 2009, the City registered the current City Logo and Official City Seal with the United States Copyright Office (Reg. Nos. VA 1-692-471 and VA 1-692- 474, respectively).
Despite these steps, the City does not currently have a codified ordinance setting forth uniform rules for the custody, use, and protection of its insignia, standards governing third-party use, or the enforcement consequences of unauthorized use. The standards applied by the Council in third-party approvals have developed by practice across individual resolutions rather than through codified law, and the existing Citywide Public Sign and Identity Program Guidelines, while comprehensive on design standards, do not address enforcement. 1 A recent third-party request submitted by Mr. Kris Cameron on behalf of the Fogtown Family Car Club illustrated several gaps in the existing framework. The applicant proposed to incorporate the City’s prior 1975 logo into a Club logo for federal trademark registration. In considering Staff’s recommendation on that request, City Attorney and Staff identified the benefit of codifying a uniform framework that would (i) clarify the standards Council applies in evaluating third -party requests; (ii) expressly address trademark registration concerns; (iii) provide explicit enforcement authority for unauthorized use; and (iv) align Marina’s practice with that of other California cities.
ANALYSIS:
Existing State Law and the Need for a Local Ordinance.
California Government Code section 34501.5 makes it a misdemeanor to use a reproduction or facsimile of a city ’s seal in campaign literature or mass mailing with intent to deceive voters.
California Elections Code section 18304 provides analogous protections against deceptive election use of county and other local agency seals. Beyond those narrow election -context protections, however, State law does not provide a comprehensive framework for protecting municipal seals, logos, and insignia from unauthorized use, commercial appropriation, or false implications of City endorsement. California cities accordingly adopt local ordinances under their police power (Cal.
Const. art. XI, § 7) to fill this gap. Because the City of Marina is a charter city, the regulatio n of its own seal, logo, and insignia is a municipal affair, and the City acts under its home-rule authority over municipal affairs (Cal. Const. art. XI, § 5) in addition to its general police power (Cal. Const. art. XI, § 7).
Practices of Other California Cities.
City Attorney and Staff surveyed comparable California cities that have adopted insignia - protection ordinances and reviewed the article “Who Gets to Use Agency Seals, Logos, Letterhead and Other Insignia?” published by the Institute for Local Government. Substantive ordinances on this subject have been adopted by the cities of Riverside (RMC ch. 1.04), Santa Rosa (SRCC ch. 1-04), Encinitas (EMC ch. 1.18), Santa Monica (SMMC ch. 2.32), Poway (PMC ch. 1.16), Hermosa Beach (HBMC ch. 1.06, amended 2023), Corona do (CMC § 1.02.070), Ontario (OMC ch. 2-4), and Lemoore (LMC § 1-11-3), Pittsburg (PMC ch. 1.28), among others.
While ordinance details vary, the model includes consistent elements: definitions of seal, logo, and insignia; assignment of custodianship; limitation of use to official business or City-authorized use; a permit or approval process for third -party use; pro hibitions on commercial, deceptive, and political uses; and a tiered set of remedies including criminal, administrative, and civil enforcement.
Proposed Ordinance.
The proposed ordinance adds Chapter 1.16 to Title 1 of the Marina Municipal Code. It is modeled on the approach used by other California cities and tailored to Marina. Key features:
a. Custody. The City Clerk is designated custodian of the Official City Seal, consistent with existing practice. The City Manager is designated custodian of the City Logo and other City Insignia and is authorized to issue administrative guidelines for day -to-day staff use.
b. Definitions. The term “City Insignia” is defined broadly to include the current City Logo, the Official City Seal, the prior 1975 logo, departmental patches, the City ’s website banner, letterhead and business card designs, and any other City -owned intellectual property used to identify the City or its departments. Inclusion of the prior 1975 logo is included because, although superseded for official use, it has not been dedicated to the public domain and remains City property. 2 c. Standards for Third-Party Use. The ordinance limits eligibility for third-party use to governmental entities and organizations exempt from taxation under Section 501(c)(3) of the Internal Revenue Code, and only in connection with a specific, identified event for a defined period with stated starting and ending dates. The ordinance codifies and refines the standards the Council has historically applied when evaluating third -party requests, including the standard articulated in Resolution No. 2003-132 (Marina Rotary Club). The Council retains exclusive authority to approve third-party use, with the City Clerk receiving applications and the City Manager forwarding them with a Staff recommendation. The ordinance further directs the Council to act on each application on the enumerated, objective standards, requires a decision within sixty (60) days after an application is complete, and limits revocation to a material breach of the conditions of approva l. Any approved use must reproduce the Insignia in its entirety without alteration, must remain legible when enlarged or reduced, and does not authorize any future or recurring use.
d. Anti-Trademark Provision. The ordinance expressly prohibits approval of any use that would involve registration of City Insignia, in whole or in part, as a privately-held trademark. This provision addresses an issue not present in older municipal ordinances but raised by recent third-party requests.
e. Souvenirs and Merchandise . The ordinance preserves the City ’s ability to manufacture and sell its own branded merchandise, with proceeds deposited to the City treasury.
f. Political Use Prohibition . The ordinance parallels California Government Code section 34501.5 by prohibiting use of City Insignia in a campaign or election -related communication in a manner reasonably calculated to convey a false impression of City sponsorship or approval, or othe rwise intended to deceive the voters, with narrow exceptions for City-issued communications and ceremonial accessories. The ordinance also addresses use of City -branded clothing and items by Councilmembers and City officials, permitting such use at nonpartisan City events but prohibiting it at campaign or partisan political events or when appearing in an individual capacity, and requires a conspicuous disclaimer (“This communication is not sponsored or approved by the City of Marina ”) when City facilities or other City resources are depicted in campaign materials.
g. Enforcement. Violations are subject to (i) prosecution under Chapter 1.08 (Code Violations); (ii) administrative citation and fines under Chapter 1.12 (Administrative Fines); and (iii) civil action under Chapter 1.10 (Civil Enforcement), including injunction, abateme nt of public nuisance, disgorgement of profits, damages, and attorneys’ fees. Remedies are cumulative. Where a violation is committed by a member of the City Council, the Council may also adopt a resolution of censure as a nonexclusive remedy.
h. Preservation of Existing Program . The 2008 Citywide Public Sign and Identity Program Guidelines remain in effect, and the new chapter operates alongside and supplements those Guidelines.
Other Considerations.
The narrow scope of the political use prohibition (use of the City Insignia specifically, rather than political speech generally), the express exception for City communications, the requirement that any prohibited use be intended to deceive or reasonably likely to create a false impression that the communication is authorized or endorsed by the City, and the parallel structure to California 3 Government Code section 34501.5 and to ordinances upheld in other California jurisdictions supports the provision’s validity.
The ordinance ’s permit and approval process (Sections 1.16.090 and 1.16.100) is likewise structured to guide the Council’s decision through the enumerated, objective factors in Section
1.16.100, limits eligibility and the scope and duration of any approved use, requires action on each completed application within a defined period, and limits revocation to a material breach o f the conditions of approval. These provisions confine official discretion and supply the narrow, objective standards that for a permissible licensing scheme .
The prohibited-use standards in Section 1.16.060 are framed in neutral terms. The ordinance bars uses that are deceptive or fraudulent, that falsely imply City endorsement, or that dilute or impair the distinctiveness or integrity of the City Insignia, rather than uses that merely reflect unfavorably on the City. This focus on confusion, deception, and dilution, which are interests the City may legitimately protect, avoids conditioning use of the Insignia on the content or viewpoint of a speaker’s message.
CEQA:
Adoption of the ordinance is not a “project” subject to the California Environmental Quality Act under State CEQA Guidelines sections 15061(b)(3) and 15378(b)(5), as it is an administrative activity of government that will not result in direct or indirect physical changes in the environment.
FISCAL IMPACT:
Adoption of the ordinance itself has no direct fiscal impact. Implementation will be accomplished within existing staff resources. Enforcement actions, if pursued, may generate cost recovery through administrative fines, civil judgments, disgorgement of pr ofits, and attorneys ’ fees, and may reduce the number of ad hoc logo-use items requiring individual Council consideration.
CONCLUSION:
The attached proposed ordinance is submitted for Council consideration for first reading and introduction of the ordinance.
