17 July 29, 2026 Item No. 10g(6)

Honorable Mayor and Members City Council Meeting
of the City Council of August 5, 2026

CITY COUNCIL TO CONSIDER ADOPTING RESOLUTION NO. 2026 -, RESCINDING RESOLUTION NO. 2026 -97; AND NULLIFYING THE SECOND

AMENDMENT TO THE AGREEMENT BETWEEN THE CITY OF MARINA
AND TRIPEPI SMITH AND ASSOCIATES, INC. FOR GENERAL
COMMUNICATIONS SERVICES; CLARIFYING THAT THE TOTAL NOT -TO- EXCEED CONTRACT AMOUNT IS $385,000; AND AUTHORIZING A

CORRECTED SECOND AMENDMENT TO BE EXECUTED BY THE CITY

MANAGER SUBJECT TO THE REVIEW AND APPROVAL BY THE CITY
ATTORNEY.

RECOMMENDATION:

It is recommended that the City Council adopt Resolution No. 2026-,:

1. Rescinding Resolution No. 2026 -97 (adopted July 7, 2026) and nullifying the Second Amendment to the Agreement for General Communications Services between the City of Marina and Tripepi Smith and Associates, Inc., which Second Amendment was adopted in error;

2. Confirm that the Agreement is for General Communications Services and that the total not- to-exceed contract amount is $385,000, consisting of the original $175,000, the $120,000 and $40,000 authorized under the First Amendment to the Agreement, and the additional $50,000 previously authorized by Council;

3. Authorize the City Manager to execute a corrected Second Amendment consistent with the foregoing, subject to final review and approval as to form by the City Attorney; and BACKGROUND:

On June 5, 2025, pursuant to Resolution No. 2025 -59, the City of Marina entered into the Agreement for General Communications Services (the “Agreement”) with Tripepi Smith and Associates, Inc. to provide on -call communications support for strategic marketing, public outreach and engagement, and any additional general communications support services identified by the City, on a time -and-materials basis in an amount not to exceed $175,000. The term of the Agreement ends June 5, 2027. (EXHIBIT A)
On October 7, 2025, pursuant to Resolution No. 2025 -113, the City Council approved a First Amendment to the Agreement authorizing an additional $120,000 for community engagement, education, and outreach for constructing City facilities and potential funding strategies, as well as an additional $40,000 to fund an opinion survey to assess citizen support and the viability of new revenue sources for a potential November 2026 ballot measure. The First Amendment increased the total not-to-exceed amount of the Agreement to $335,000. (EXHIBIT B) On July 7, 2026, pursuant to Resolution No. 2026 -97, the City Council authorized a Second Amendment to the Agreement adding $50,000 to sustain communications services through the remainder of the contract term. As drafted and executed, the Second Amendment contained the errors described below.

1 ANALYSIS:

The Second Amendment requires correction for two reasons.

First, the Second Amendment was unclear as to the nature of the services it funded. The Agreement is, and has been since its inception, an Agreement for General Communications Services. The Second Amendment, however, characterized the additional $50,000 as revenue measure support, i.e., as being for a specific purpose rather than for general communications services. The additional $50,000 is for general communications services, consistent with the underlying Agreement.

Second, the Second Amendment did not address or take into account the full contract amount. It amended Article 3 “Compensation” to state a total not-to-exceed amount of $210,000. That figure omitted the original $175,000 authorized under Resolution No. 202 5-59. Taking into account the original $175,000, the $120,000 and $40,000 authorized under the First Amendment (Resolution No. 2025 -113), and the additional $50,000, the correct total not -to-exceed contract amount is $385,000.

To correct the record, staff recommends that the City Council rescind Resolution No. 2026 -97, nullify the erroneous Second Amendment, confirm that the Agreement is for General Communications Services, confirm that the total not -to-exceed contract amount is $385,000, and authorize a corrected Second Amendment reflecting these terms (EXHIBIT C). The amount of additional funding ($50,000) is unchanged; only the characterization of the services and the statement of the total contract amount are being corrected.

Consistent with the Agreement’s scope, general communications services under the Agreement may include, without limitation, provide on -call communications support , strategic marketing, public outreach and engagement services.

FISCAL IMPACT:

This action does not increase the amount of funding previously authorized by the City Council.

The additional $50,000 previously approved is proposed to come from unallocated fund balance.

Upon adoption, the total not-to-exceed amount of the Agreement is confirmed at $385,000 for the full term of the Agreement.

CONCLUSION:

This request is submitted for City Council consideration and possible action.

Respectfully submitted,

WHEREAS, general communications services under the Agreement may include, without limitation, on-call general communications, creative services, and public outreach; and WHEREAS, the City Council desires to correct the record by rescinding Resolution No. 2026-97, nullifying the erroneous Second Amendment, confirming the nature and total amount of the Agreement, and authorizing a corrected Second Amendment.

EXHIBIT A
9 30919\002\1787367.2: 19245
errors or omissions of his, her or its subcontractors. Negligence of subcontractors or agents retained by the design professional is conclusively deemed to be the negligence of the design professional if not adequately corrected by the design professional. Use of the term subcontractor in any other provision of this Agreement shall not be construed to imply authorization for a design professional to use subcontractors for performance of any professional service under this Agreement.
(c) The City is an intended beneficiary of any work performed by a subcontractor for purposes of establishing a duty of care between the subcontractor and the City.

7. Skill of Employees. Contractor shall ensure that any employees or agents providing services under this Agreement possess the requisite skill, training and experience to properly perform such services.

8. Confidential and Proprietary Information. In the course of performing services under this Agreement Contractor may obtain, receive, and review confidential or proprietary documents, information or materials that are and shall remain the exclusive property of the City.

Any and all liability arising out of changes made by the City to Contractor's deliverables is waived against Contractor unless City has given Contractor prior written notice of the changes and has received Contractor's written consent to such changes.

10. Conflict of Interest.

EXHIBIT A
10 30919\002\1787367.2: 19246

(a) Contractor covenants that neither it, nor any officer or principal of its firm has or shall acquire any interest, directly or indirectly, which would conflict in any manner with the interests of the City or which would in any way hinder Contractor’s performance of services under this Agreement. Contractor further covenants that in the performance of this Agreement, no person having any such interest shall be employed by it as an officer, employee, agent or subcontractor without the express written consent of the City Manager. Contractor agrees to at all times avoid conflicts of interest or the appearance of any conflicts of interest with the interests of the City in the performance of this Agreement. Contractor shall represent the interest of the City in any discussion or negotiation.

(b) City understands and acknowledges that Contractor may be, as of the date of commencement of services under this Agreement, independently involved in the performance of non-related services for other governmental agencies and private parties. Contractor is unaware of any stated position of the City relative to such projects.

Any future position of the City on such projects may result in a conflict of interest for purposes of this section.

11. Disclosure. Contractor may be subject to the appropriate disclosure requirements of the California Fair Political Practices Act, as determined by the City Manager.

12. Non-Discrimination.

(a) During the performance of this Agreement the Contractor and its subcontractors shall comply with the applicable laws of the United States of America, the State of California and the City prohibiting discrimination and harassment. In performing this Agreement, Contractor shall not discriminate, harass, or allow harassment, against any employee or applicant for employment because of gender, gender expression, gender identity, genetic characteristics, sex, race, color, ancestry, religious creed, national origin, physical disability (including HIV and AIDS), medical condition (including cancer), mental disability, age, marital status, denial of family and medical care leave and denial of pregnancy disability leave, sexual orientation, military/veteran status and any other characteristics protected by state or federal law. Contractor shall give written notice of its obligations under this clause to labor organizations with which it has a collective bargaining or other agreement.
(b) Contractor shall include the provisions of this Section 12(a) in all subcontracts related to this Agreement.

13. Indemnification.

(a) Other than in the performance of design professional services by a design professional, which shall be solely as addressed by subsection (b) below, and to the full extent permitted by law, Contractor shall indemnify, immediately defend (with independent counsel reasonably acceptable to the City) and hold harmless the City, its Council, boards, commissions, employees, officials and agents (collectively "Indemnified Parties" or in the singular "Indemnified Party") from and against any claims, losses, damages, penalties, fines and judgments, associated investigation and administrative expenses, and defense costs including but not limited to reasonable attorney’s fees, court costs, expert witness

EXHIBIT A
11 30919\002\1787367.2: 19247

fees and costs of alternate dispute resolution (collectively "Liabilities“), where same arise out of the performance of this Agreement by Contractor, its officers, employees, agents and sub-contractors. The duty to defend is a separate and distinct obliga tion from the Contractor’s duty to indemnify and Contractor shall be obligated to defend in all legal, equitable, administrative or special proceedings upon tender to the Contractor of any claim in any form or at any stage of an action or proceeding, whether or not liability is established and the obligation extends through final judgment including exhaustion of any appeals.

The Contractor’s obligation to indemnify applies unless it is finally determined that the liability was caused by the sole active negl igence or sole willful misconduct of an indemnified party. If it is finally determined that liability is caused by the comparative active negligence or willful misconduct of an Indemnified Party, the Contractor’s indemnification obligation shall be reduce d in proportion to the established comparative liability of the indemnified party.

(b) To the fullest extent permitted by law (including without limitation California Civil Code Sections 2782.8), when the services to be provided under this Agreement are design professional services to be performed by a design professional, as that term is defined by said section 2782.8(c)(2) (“Design Professional”) Design Professional shall indemnify, protect and hold harmless any Indemnified Party for all Liabilities regardless of nature or type that arise out of, pertain to, or relate to the negligence , recklessness, or willful misconduct of Design Professional, or such acts or omissions of an officer, employee, agent or subcontractor of the Design Professional. Design Professional shall not have an immediate duty to defend an Indemnified Party, however, Design Professional’s obligation to indemnify (including reimbursing the cost to defend) and hold the Indemnified Parties harmless applies unless it is finally determined that the liability was caused by the sole active negligence or sole willful miscond uct of an Indemnified Party. If it is finally determined that liability was caused by the comparative active negligence or willful misconduct of an Indemnified Party the Design Professional’s indemnification obligation shall be reduced in direct proportion to the indemnified party’s proportionate percentage of fault. Within 30 days following Design Professional’s receipt of a properly presented written invoice Design Profession al shall satisfy its indemnification obligations and reimburse the Indemnified P arty for the cost of reasonable attorney’s fees and defense costs incurred by the Indemnified Party to the same extent of Design Professional’s indemnity obligation herein. In no event shall the cost to defend charged to the Design Professional exceed the Design Professional’s proportionate percentage of fault.

(c) The provisions of this Section are not limited by the provisions of sections relating to insurance including provisions of any worker's compensation act or similar act.

Contractor expressly waives its statutory immunity under such statues or laws as to City, its employees and officials. An allegation or determination of comparative active negligence or willful misconduct by an Indemnified Party unrelated to design professional services does not relieve Contractor from its separate and distinct obliga tion to defend City. Contractor agrees to obtain executed indemnity agreements with provisions identical to those set forth here in this section from each and every subcontractor, sub tier contractor or any other person or entity involved by, for, with or on behalf of Contractor in the performance or subject matter of this Agreement. In the event Contractor fails to obtain such indemnity obligations from others as required here, Contractor agrees to be fully responsible according to the terms of this secti on. Failure of City to monitor compliance with these requirements imposes no additional obligations on City and will in no way act as a waiver of any rights hereunder.

EXHIBIT A
12 30919\002\1787367.2: 19248

(d) If any action or proceeding is brought against any Indemnified Party by reason of any of the matters against which the Contractor has agreed to provide an immediate defense to any Indemnified Party, as provided above, Contractor, upon notice from the City, shall defend the Indemnified Party at Contractor's expense by independent counsel reasonably acceptable to the City. Unless otherwise provided above, an Indemnified Party need not have first paid for any of the matters to which it is entitled to inde mnification in order to be so defended. Contractor may submit a claim to the City for reasonable defense costs (including attorney’s and expert fees) incurred in providing a defense of any Indemnified Party to the extent such defense costs arise under principals of comparative fault from the Indemnified Party’s active negligence, recklessness or willful misconduct.

(e) This obligation to indemnify and defend, as set forth herein, is binding on the successors, assigns, or heirs of Contractor and shall survive the termination of this Agreement or this Section.

14. Insurance.

(a) As a condition precedent to the effectiveness of this Agreement and without limiting Contractor's indemnification of the City, Contractor agrees to obtain and maintain in full force and effect at its own expense the insurance policies set forth in Exhibit “B” “Insurance” attached hereto and made a part hereof. Contractor shall furnish the City with original certificates of insurance, executed by a person authorized by that insurer to bind coverage on its behalf, along with copies of all required endorsements. All certificates and endorsements must be received and approved by the City before any work commences. All insurance policies shall be subject to approval by the City Attorney and Risk Manager as to form and content. Specifically, such insurance shall:
(1) be endorsed to protect City as an additional insured for commercial general and business auto liability; (2) provide City prior notice of cancellation; and (3) be primary with respect to City's insurance program. Contractor's insurance is not expected to respond to claims that may arise from the acts or omissions of the City.

(b) City reserves the right at any time during the term of this Agreement to change the amounts and types of insurance required herein by giving Contractor ninety days advance written notice of such change. If such change should result in substantial additional cost of the Contractor, City agrees to negotiate additional compensation proportional to the increased benefit to City.

(c) All required insurance must be submitted and approved the City Attorney and Risk Manager prior to the inception of any operations by Contractor.

(d) The required coverage and limits are subject to availability on the open market at reasonable cost as determined by the City. Non availability or non affordability must be documented by a letter from Contractor's insurance broker or agency indicating a good faith effort to place the required insurance and showing as a minimum the names of the insurance carriers and the declinations or quotations received from each. Within the foregoing constraints, Contractor's failure to procure or maintain required insurance during the entire term of this Agreement shall constitute a material breach of this Agreement under which City may immediately suspend or terminate this Agreement or, at its discretion, procure or renew such insurance to protect City's interests and pay any and all premium in connection therewith and recover all monies so paid from Contractor.

EXHIBIT A
13 30919\002\1787367.2: 19249
(e) By signing this Agreement, Contractor hereby certifies that it is aware of the provisions of Section 3700 et seq., of the Labor Code which require every employer to be insured against liability for Workers' Compensation or to undertake self-insurance in accordance with the provision of that Code, and that it will comply with such provisions at all such times as they may apply during the performance of the work pursuant to this Contract. Unless otherwise agreed, a waiver of subrogation in favor of the City is required.

15. Independent Contractor. The parties agree that Contractor, its officers, employees and agents, if any, shall be independent contractors with regard to the providing of services under this Agreement, and that Contractor's employees or agents shall not be considered to be employees or agents of the City for any purpose and will not be entitled to any of the benefits City provides for its employees. City shall make no deductions for payroll taxes or Social Security from amounts due Contractor for work or services provided under this Agreement.

This Agreement shall not constitute, and it is not intended to constitute, either party as an employer, employee, agent, partner or legal representative of the other party for any purpose, or give either party any right to supervise or direct the functions of the other party. Except as specifically provided herein, neither party shall have authority to act for or obligate the other party in any way or to extend any representation on behalf of the other party. Each party agrees to perform under this Agreement solely as an independent contractor and neither party shall have any right, power, or authority, nor shall they represent themselves as having any authority to assume, create, or incur any expense, liability or obligation, express or implied, on behalf of the other party for any purpose. Each party agrees not to permit its employees or agents to do anything that might be construed or interpreted as acts of the other party.

16. Claims for Labor and Materials. Contractor shall promptly pay when due all amounts payable for labor and materials furnished in the performance of this Agreement, so as to prevent any lien or other claim under any provision of law from arising against any City property (including reports, documents, and other tangible matter produced by the Contractor hereunder), against the Contractor's rights to payments hereunder, or against the City, and shall pay all amounts due under the Unemployment Insurance Act with respect to such labor.

17. Discounts. Contractor agrees to offer the City any discount terms that are offered to its best customers for the goods and services to be provided herein, and apply such discounts to payment made under this Agreement which meet the discount terms.

18. Cooperation; Further Acts. The Parties shall fully cooperate with one another, and shall take any additional acts or sign any additional documents as may be necessary, appropriate or convenient to attain the purposes of this Agreement.

19. Dispute Resolution. If any dispute arises between the parties as to proper interpretation or application of this Agreement, the parties shall first meet and confer in a good faith attempt to resolve the matter between themselves. If the dispute is not resolved by meeting and conferring, the matter shall be submitted for formal mediation to a mediator selected mutually by the parties. The expenses of such mediation shall be shared equally between the parties. If the dispute is not or cannot be resolved by mediation, the parties may mutually agree (but only as to those issues of the matter not

EXHIBIT A
14 30919\002\1787367.2: 192410
resolved by mediation) to submit their dispute to arbitration. Before commencement of the arbitration, the parties may elect to have the arbitration proceed on an informal basis; however, if the parties are unable so to agree, then the arbitration shall be conducted in accordance with the rules of the American Arbitration Association. The decision of the arbitrator shall be binding, unless within thirty days after issuance of the arbitrator’s written decision, any party files an action in court. Venue and jurisdiction for any such action between the parties shall lie in the Superior Court for the County of Monterey.

20. Compliance with Laws.
(a) Each party's performance hereunder shall comply with all applicable laws of the United States of America, the State of California and the City including but not limited to laws regarding health and safety, labor and employment, wage and hours and licensing laws which affect employees. This Agreement shall be governed by, enforced and interpreted under the laws of the State of California. Contractor must be in good standing and registered with the California Department of Industrial Relations in accordance with California labor Code section 1725.5 and shall comply with new, amended or revised laws, regulations or procedures that apply to the performance of this Agreement.
(b) If the Project is a "public work," or prevailing wages are otherwise required, Contractor shall comply with all provision of California Labor Code section 1720 et seq., as applicable, and laws dealing with prevailing wages, apprentices and hours of work. (c) Contractor represents that it has obtained and presently holds all permits and licenses necessary for performance hereunder, including a Business License required by the City's Business License Ordinance (Title 5 of the Marina Municipal Code) for which a business license tax is prescribed and assessed at the rate of two-tenths percent of gross receipts, in accordance with the provisions therein. For the term covered by this Agreement, the Contractor shall maintain or obtain as necessary, such permits and licenses and shall not allow them to lapse, be revoked or suspended.

21. Assignment or Transfer. This Agreement or any interest herein may not be assigned, hypothecated or transferred, either directly or by operation of law, without the prior written consent of the City. Any attempt to do so shall be null and void, and any assignees, hypothecates or transferees shall acquire no right or interest by reason of such attempted assignment, hypothecation or transfer.

22. Notices. All notices required or permitted to be given under this Agreement shall be in writing and shall be personally delivered, sent by facsimile ("fax") or certified mail, postage prepaid with return receipt requested, addressed as follows:

Other Cost Information
Tripepi Smith has related service fees that may come up during our engagement that we want to tell you about
Annual Increase
Tripepi Smith will increase the hourly rates and retainer fees for all resources by 5% or the national CPI index–whichever is higher–each year on the anniversary of the contract, starting on the first anniversary of any contract when the contract duration is longer than one year. Otherwise, new rates will be negotiated with each new contract.

Retainer Discount
When a client’s retainer exceeds $7,500 per month, they gain access to our reduced retainer rates.

Travel Costs
Travel costs must be pre-authorized and then will be reimbursed by the client for any requested travel to complete a requested scope of work. Travel costs may include airfare, lodging, car rentals and gas. Additionally, when client work requires that we be onsite, we will invoice for a resource’s travel time at 50% of the resource’s hourly rate.

Equipment Costs
Tripepi Smith offers some services that require equipment, such as drone operations and video production. As such, in those cases, the following rates apply:

Half Day (Under 4 Hours) Full Day (4+ Hours)
Video $450 $650
Drone $550 – Flat Fee
Please note that A/V equipment fees are based on the amount and type of equipment required, with pricing tailored to the specifics of each event.

Music and Video Licensing
Sometimes, the client will want Tripepi Smith to apply music or use stock imagery/video while producing video. In these cases, we will need to apply licensing fees of approximately $100 per song and $200 if we use stock video imagery. This will provide a license for the use of the music and video footage to Tripepi Smith and its clients.

EXHIBIT A
20 30919\002\1787367.2:1924
Service Fees
Tripepi Smith prefers that clients pay service providers directly to avoid unnecessary administrative costs. You should also know, however, that we have no economic interest in service providers, unless otherwise specified in this proposal.

If a client asks Tripepi Smith to pay for a service provider bill, we will apply a 10% agency fee to the reimbursement expense. Typical service fees include, but are not limited to: print, mailing, digital advertising, media placements, voiceovers, translations and closed captions.

Exclusive Access

Other Insurance Provisions
The insurance policies are to contain, or be endorsed to contain, the following provisions:

Additional Insured Status
City, its officers, officials, employees, and volunteers are to be covered as additional insureds on the CGL policy with respect to liability arising out of work or operations performed by or on behalf of Contractor including materials, parts, or equipment furnished in connection with such work or operations.

Primary Coverage
For any claims related to this contract, Contractor’s insurance coverage shall be primary and non-contributory and at least as broad as ISO CG 20 01 04 13 as respects the City, its officers, officials, employees, and volunteers. Any insurance or self-insurance maintained by the City, its officers, officials, employees, or volunteers shall be excess of Contractor’s insurance and shall not contribute with it. This requirement shall also apply to any Excess or Umbrella liability policies.

Umbrella or Excess Policy
Contractor may use Umbrella or Excess Policies to provide the liability limits as required in this agreement. This form of insurance will be acceptable provided that all of the Primary and Umbrella or Excess Policies shall provide all of the insurance coverages herein required, including, but not limited to, primary and non-contributory, additional insured, Self-Insured Retentions (SIRs), indemnity, and defense requirements. The Umbrella or Excess policies shall be provided on a true “following form” or broader coverage basis, with coverage at least as broad as provided on the underlying Commercial General Liability insurance.

Each insurance policy required above shall provide that coverage shall not be canceled, except with notice to the City.

Waiver of Subrogation
Contractor hereby grants to City a waiver of any right to subrogation which any insurer of said Contractor may acquire against the City by virtue of the payment of any loss under such insurance. Contractor agrees to obtain any endorsement that may be necessary to affect this waiver of subrogation, but this provision applies regardless of whether or not the City has received a waiver of subrogation endorsement from the insurer.

Self-Insured Retentions
Self-insured retentions must be declared to and approved by the City. The City may require Contractor to purchase coverage with a lower retention or provide proof of ability to pay losses and related investigations, claim administration, and defense expenses within the retention. The policy language shall provide, or be endorsed to provide, that the self-insured retention may be satisfied by either the named insured or City. The CGL and any policies, including Excess liability policies, may not be subject to a self-insured retention (SIR) or deductible that exceeds $25,000 unless approved in writing by City.

Any and all deductibles and SIRs shall be the sole responsibility of Contractor or subcontractor who procured such insurance and shall not apply to the Indemnified Additional Insured Parties. City may deduct from any amounts otherwise due Contractor to fund the SIR/deductible. Policies shall NOT contain any self-insured retention (SIR) provision that limits the satisfaction of the SIR to the City. The policy must also provide that Defense costs, including the Allocated Loss Adjustment Expenses, will satisfy the SIR or deductible. City reserves the right to obtain a copy of any policies and endorsements for verification.

EXHIBIT A
23 30919\002\1787367.2:1924

2. Insurance must be maintained and evidence of insurance must be provided for at least five (5) years after completion of the contract of work.

3. If coverage is canceled or non-renewed, and not replaced with another claims- made policy form with a Retroactive Date prior to the contract effective date, Contractor must purchase “extended reporting” coverage for a minimum of five (5) years after completion of work.

Verification of Coverage
Contractor shall furnish the City with original certificates and amendatory endorsements or copies of the applicable policy language effecting coverage required by this clause and a copy of the Declarations and Endorsements Pages of the CGL and any Excess policies listing all policy endorsements. All certificates and endorsements and copies of the Declarations & Endorsements pages are to be received and approved by the City before work commences. However, failure to obtain the required documents prior to the work beginning shall not waive Contractor’s obligation to provide them. The City reserves the right to require complete, certified copies of all required insurance policies, including endorsements required by these specifications, at any time. City reserves the right to modify these requirements, including limits, based on the nature of the risk, prior experience, insurer, coverage, or other special circumstances.

Subcontractors
Contractor shall require and verify that all subcontractors maintain insurance meeting all the requirements stated herein, and Contractor shall ensure that City is an additional insured on insurance required from subcontractors.

Duration of Coverage
CGL & Excess liability policies for any construction related work, including, but not limited to, maintenance, service, or repair work, shall continue coverage for a minimum of five (5) years for Completed Operations liability coverage.

Honorable Mayor and Members City Council Meeting
of the Marina City Council of October 7, 2025

CITY COUNCIL TO CONSIDER ADOPTING RESOLUTION NO. 2025 -,

AUTHORIZING A DDITIONAL FUNDING FOR THE EXISTING

PROFESSIONAL SERVICES AGREEMENT WITH TRIPEPI SMITH

AND ASSOCIATES FOR COMMUNITY ENGAGEMENT, EDUCATION

AND OUTREACH FOR CONSTRUCTING CITY FACILITIES AND

POTENTIAL FUNDING STRATEGIES

REQUEST:

It is requested that the City Council:

1. Authorize an additional $1 00,000 for the existing professional services agreement with Tripepi Smith and Associates for additional community engagement, education, and outreach for constructing new city facilities and potential funding strategies.

2. Authorize $40,000 to fund a n Opinion Survey to assess citizen support for constructing new city facilities and viability of new revenue sources for a potential November 2026 ballot measure.

5. Authorize the Finance Director to make necessary accounting and budgetary entries.

BACKGROUND:

The City has a current agreement with Tripepi Smith for professional assistance with public outreach and engagement, strategic marketing, surveys, social media and web content creation, and general communications and public relations support for the City. The contract with Tripepi Smith is on a time-and-materials basis that provides maximum flexibility while providing resources necessary to meet the city’s needs.

On September 23, 2025, the City Council held a special Study Session regarding potential funding alternatives and strategies for constructing critical city facilities.

Following this discussion, the Council directed staff to establish a Citizen’s Advisory Committee within the coming months 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 users tax options, potential exemptions, and case studies from other cities; and provide Council with preliminary analysis of voter demographics, past election results, and a summary of the City’s available facility sites.

To accomplish this, staff requested that Tripepi Smith provide an estimate of the additional cost to their current contract to provide this support.

ANALYSIS:

Tripepi Smith’s estimat es this additional outreach and community engagement including facilitating the Citizen’s Advisory Committee and other community meetings will be in the range of $100,000 to $120,000 over the next 14-month period. This also includes:

EXHIBIT B
28 • Production content for news articles, press releases, social media posts, webpage information, and other community messaging.
• Informational mailers
• Animated video production
• Public outreach meetings (both in-person and virtual)

The scope is structured on a time-and-materials basis, allowing the City flexibility to scale services up or down depending on Council priorities, community needs, and available budget. The pricing structure reflects industry standards for public education and ballot measure outreach efforts of this scale, particularly given the amount of in-person and virtual public meetings.

Additionally, there is a need to conduct another Public Opinion Survey to assess citizen support for constructing new city facilities and viability of new revenue sources for a potential November 2026 ballot measure. Staff requests that an additional $40,000 be approved for funding this survey.

This contract will be brought back to the council later.

FISCAL IMPACT:
$140,000 will need to be approved from unallocated General Fund balance.

AMENDMENT TO AGREEMENT WITH CITY OF MARINA

AND TRIPEPI SMITH AND ASSOCIATES
THIS AMENDMENT (“Second Amendment”) to the Agreement for General Communications Services is made this ____ day of ________________ 2026, by and between the City of Marina, a California charter city (“CITY”) and Tripepi Smith and Associates, Inc. (“CONTRACTOR”).

CITY and CONTRACTOR are sometimes referred to herein collectively as the “Parties.” Recitals
A. On June 5, 2025, CITY and CONTRACTOR entered into the Agreement for General Communications Services (the “Agreement”) to provide on-call communications support for strategic marketing, public outreach and engagement and any additional general communications support services identified by the City. The term of the Agreement ends on June 5, 2027, and compensation to the CONTRACTOR under the Agreement was provided on a time and materials basis not to exceed $175,000.

B. On October 7, 2025, pursuant to Resolution No. 2025-113, CITY and CONTRACTOR amended the Agreement through a First Amendment to provide additional funding for community engagement, education and outreach for constructing City facilities and potential funding strategies, in which CITY was authorized $120,000 in additional funds for this purpose, as well as $40,000 to fund an Opinion Survey to assess citizen support and viability of new revenue sources for a potential November 2026 ballot measure. The First Amendment increased the total not-to-exceed amount of the Agreement to $335,000.

C. On July 7, 2026, the City Council authorized an additional $50,000 for services under the Agreement to ensure adequate funding through the remainder of the contract term. The Second Amendment previously prepared to effect that authorization was adopted in error in that it was unclear that the additional funding, and the Agreement as a whole, is for general communications services, and in that it stated a total not-to-exceed amount of $210,000, which omitted the original $175,000 authorized under Resolution No. 2025-59.

By Resolution No. 2026-___, the City Council rescinded the prior authorizing resolution, nullified the prior Second Amendment, and authorized this corrected Second Amendment.

D. The Agreement is for general communications services.

E. Only the numbered Article of the Agreement which is being amended is set forth in this Second Amendment.

Terms & Conditions Amended
Now, therefore, the Parties agree to amend the Agreement as follows:
30 EXHIBIT C

1. Article 3 “Compensation” Section (a) is amended to read in its entirety:
a. “City liability for compensation to Contractor under this Agreement shall only be to the extent of the present appropriation to fund this Agreement. For services to be provided under this Agreement, City shall compensate Contractor on a time and materials basis in an amount not to exceed Three Hundred Eighty-Five Thousand Dollars ($385,000.00) in accordance with the provisions of this Section and the Fee Schedule attached hereto as “Exhibit A” and incorporated herein by this reference.”
All other terms and conditions of the Agreement shall remain in full force and effect.

This Amendment may be executed in two (2) counterparts, each of which shall be deemed an original, but both of which together shall constitute one and the same instrument. Counterpart may be delivered by facsimile, electronic mail (including pdf. or any electronic signature complying with the U.S. ESIGN Act of 2000, California’s Uniform Electronic Transactions Act (Cal. Civil Code 1633.1 et seq.) or other applicable law) or other transmission method and any counterpart so delivered shall be deemed to have been validly delivered and be valid and effective for all purposes. This Amendment consists of two (2) pages.

IN WITNESS WHEREOF, the Parties hereto have executed this Amendment to the Agreement for CONTRACTOR to provide general communications services for the CITY.

CITY COUNCIL CONSIDER ADOPTING RESOLUTION NO. 2026-, DIRECTING

STAFF TO SPECIFY A NEW TRACTOR DRAWN AERIAL CONFIGURATION

FOR A TRUCK THAT WILL MEET THE NEEDS OF THE CITY OF MARINA NOT TO EXCEED $2,400,000.00 INCLUDING THE $882,406.00 ALREADY APPLIED TO THE PURC HASE; AND A 10% PROJECT CONTINGENCY TO

ENTRIES

REQUEST:

It is requested that the City Council consider:

1. Direct staff to specify a new Tractor Drawn Aerial configuration for a truck that will meet the needs of the City of Marina not to exceed $2,400,000.00 including the $882,406.00 already applied to the purchase and a 10% contingency to address unforeseen costs associated with the project.

2. Authorize the City Manager to select the best payment option.

3. Authorize the Finance Director to make necessary accounting and budgetary entries.

BACKGROUND:

This item is being brought to the council because of an issue that was discovered during the build process of a fire truck for the City of Marina. The city approved the purchase through Resolution No. 2022-137 at their November 15, 2022, meeting.

The purchase order was $1,908,443.04 to purchase a Rosenbauer Quint Truck. The resolution directed staff to pay $464,689 in advance of delivery for a $18,555 discount, reducing the total price to $1,889,888.04 The truck was to be delivered and accepted by the Marina Fire Department on or about the fourth quarter of 2025.

During the late part of 2025, the Fire Department and Rosenbauer started to engage in conversations related to the weight of the truck and its ability to comply with California Department of Transportation Standards. After reviewing lengthy discussions be tween the Fire Department and Rosenbauer, it was clear that the truck would not meet state standards while complying with industry standards and the requirements of the State of California (See cancellation analysis below).

During an online meeting on March 3, 2026, which included members of the Marina Fire Department specification committee, owners of Burton’s Fire Equipment, and representatives of Rosenbauer, including their engineering team, Rosenbauer stated that no furth er engineering changes were available to bring the platform ladder truck within California’s applicable weight restrictions. As a result, the apparatus could not be delivered in a condition that would allow the City of Marina to lawfully and practically accept it for service in California. 1 The inability to accept delivery is not the result of any change requested or caused by the Marina Fire Department or the City of Marina. Rather, Rosenbauer was unable to deliver an apparatus that met the City’s specifications and the applicable California weight requirements necessary for acceptance and use.

The city has c ancelled the order of the Rosenbauer platform ladder truck associated with Rosenbauer Job No. G75712 (“EXHIBIT A”). Furthermore, requested that the full amount paid to date, $882,406.00 to be either credited in full toward a new Rosenbauer truck or refunded in full, at the City of Marina’s discretion.

Staff are requesting a new Tractor Drawn Aerial configuration for a truck that will meet the needs of the City of Marina not to exceed $2,400,000.00 to include the $882,406.00 already applied to the purchase ($1,517,594) (“EXHIBIT B”). Since there was a previously purchased truck with anticipated delivery, most of the equipment has already been purchased.

Although it is disappointing to not have a truck that can be put into service, there are some bonuses to consider. Currently, none of the City of Marina fire facilities will adequately house a truck.

This gives us time to plan new facilities accordingly. Also, with the rapid growth and changes within city infrastructure, a tractor drawn aerial may be more conducive to meet the needs of the city.

TRACTOR DRAWN AERIAL (TDA) BENEFITS:

A tractor-drawn aerial (TDA) offers Marina significant operational advantages due to its superior maneuverability, rear-steering capability, and ability to position the aerial ladder in constrained street environments. A TDA also provides substantial compartment space and reduces maintenance costs compared to a straight truck, particularly a platform, due to its lighter weight. A TDA is projected to have a 15 to 20-year lifecycle as a frontline apparatus. • Maneuverability—Rear-steered trailer and articulation allow the truck to “bend” through turns and position the rear where needed. TDAs are the most maneuverable types of aerial apparatus. Maneuverability is critical in Marina, where we have many tight existing streets, roundabouts, and cul-de-sacs, and where new developments have narrow streets with very restrictive access. Ability to actively position the rear of the apparatus around parked cars, medians, curbs, bulb-outs, roundabouts, and narrow approaches.  https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=3bNwi8AKWts
 https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=8wJMtLwEV4s
• Aerial placement—TDA can be placed into a better location due to rear steering, unlike a straight-frame truck. Better positioning makes aerial ladder operations more effective. This is critical given the vertical growth of the city.
• Weight—TDAs do not have the weight issues of a platform truck. The structure needed to support the aerial ladder is significantly reduced because the ladder is lighter and does not need to support a platform. The base/turntable for the ladder is placed directly over the rear tires of the tractor portion, distributing the weight more efficiently and removing much of the weight from the rear axles, where weight is an issue with a platform. TDA can be up to 15,000 pounds lighter than a platform.
 Reduced weight means less wear on braking, transmission, engine, suspension, etc.  Improved performance in acceleration, braking, grade performance, and general drivetrain load.
2 • Storage—Increased storage space is a major advantage. A TDA will have increased storage space and will not be subject to weight restrictions due to the weight of the apparatus.

Therefore, the available compartment space can be maximized. A TDA will be able to carry equipment that the platform would have been unable to.
• Staffing—Able to be staffed with three firefighters. A TDA does not require additional staffing compared with a platform truck.
• Safety—TDAs have a firefighter in the rear, providing an additional set of eyes when navigating traffic, roadways, and tight spaces, reducing the risk of an accident when a sole driver of a straight truck does not have good visibility of the rear of the tr uck. TDAs also have lower compartments which reduce the risk of injuries from lifting heavy tools overhead.
• Maintenance—TDAs are lighter and have a single rear axle, which means less wear and tear. Single axles have fewer tires and less wear on them. Suspension demand is reduced.

There are only two stabilizing outriggers, versus four on a straight truck (less maintenance).

TDAs potentially have a longer service life due to reduced wear and tear and maintenance costs.

PLATFORM TRUCK CANCELATION ANALYSIS:

The California Vehicle Code has very restrictive weight limits for commercial trucks. There are special carve-outs for fire trucks; however, California will not permit a vehicle to be used if it exceeds a specified weight. After several attempts to adjust the design and weight distribution of the platform ladder truck, Rosenbauer was unable to bring the truck within the weight restrictions, particularly once it was loaded with its tool and equipment complement. After meeting with Rosenbauer engineers, the t wo owners of Burton’s Fire Apparatus (Rosenbauer sales), and the internal Marina FD spec committee, Rosenbauer determined that they were out of options to modify the truck to be in compliance with the California Vehicle Code. • 21 CCR §1411.7
 Tandem rear axles may not exceed 48,000 pounds.
 A 15% exemption may be granted by the state, bringing the maximum allowable tandem rear axle weight to 55,200 pounds.
 Fire trucks meeting the requirements of this regulation may operate on State and local roadways without a transportation permit. Fire trucks that exceed the weight requirements of this regulation for tandem or tridem axles may receive transportation permits from the Department to operate on State routes and from local governments to operate on local roads. The permit shall not allow any increase in single axle weights. The permit shall limit tandem and tridem weights to no more than 15 percent over the weights allowed in these regulations... • CVC §35002(b)(1) requires the manufacturer to weigh the truck with a full tank of water plus allowances for personnel (1,200 lbs.) and equipment (2,500 lbs.). It further states, “Fire apparatus shall be weighed and certified by the manufacturer to determin e compliance with the table above prior to acceptance by the purchaser.” Marina Fire accepted a reduced equipment allowance of 2,000 lbs. That reduced allowance was still too much to properly distribute in the compartments and remain within the required we ight restriction, including the 15% allowance, which is not automatically granted by the state.

3 FISCAL IMPACT:

The current price for a tractor drawn aerial is $2,300,000.00 to 2,500,000.00. Most manufactures offer discounts depending on the payment structure. The most significant discount is for apparatus that are paid upfront. The City may have this discount as an option since the current truck was supposed to be delivered, and the funds have been allocated.

Staff would like to request allocation not to exceed $2,400,000.00 and a 10% contingency to address unforeseen costs associated with the project and the ability of the City Manager to select the payment option.

The City of Marina is a member of Sourcewell, member number 27263. Sourcewell is a national municipal cooperative purchasing agency. Staff will ensure the truck selected is competitively bid through Sourcewell which ensures that the City is receiving competitive pricing in accordance with the requirements of California law and City policies.

With the purchase of the truck, the replacement cost will be amortized over the expected life of the truck, and funds will be set aside into the vehicle replacement fund accordingly.

This request is submitted to the City Council for consideration and possible action.

Respectfully submitted,

Honorable Mayor and Members of the City Council Public Hearing City Council of July 7, 2026
CITY COUNCIL CONSIDER ADOPTING RESOLUTION NO. 2026 -,

APPROVING AMENDMENTS TO T HE DOWNTOWN VITALIZATION

SPECIFIC PLAN (DVSP) IN RESPONSE TO RECOMMENDATIONS OF THE

PLANNING COMMISSION AND RECOMMENDATIONS OF A MARKET

FEASIBILITY ANALYSIS PREPARED BY HDL ECONSOLUTIONS AND

DETERMINE THAT SAID AMENDMENTS ARE EXEMPT FROM FURTHER

ENVIRONMENTAL REVIEW PURSUANT TO CALIFORNIA CODE OF
REGULATIONS TITLE 14, DIVISION 6, CHAPTER 3 (CEQA GUIDELINES) SECTION 15183 AND SECTION 15061(B)(3).

RECOMMENDATION: That the City Council consider adopting:

1. Resolution 2026-, approving amendments to the Downtown Vitalization Specific Plan in response to recommendations from the Planning Commission and the recommendations of a market feasibility analysis prepared by consulting firm HDL ECONSolutions and determine that said amendments to the Downtown Vitalization Specific Plan are subject to exemptions from environmental review in accordance with Sections 15183 and 15061(b)(3) of the CEQA Guidelines.

BACKGROUND
In October 2024, the Marina City Council adopted the Downtown Vitalization Specific Plan (DVSP) to guide the redevelopment and enhancement of Downtown Marina over the next several decades. The plan presents an aspirational vision for Marina’s urban core as a vibrant, pedestrian-friendly city center encompassing mixed-use buildings, retail and office space, and new housing in alignment with the City’s General Plan. The DVSP establishes a regulatory framework facilitating full build-out capacity of approximately 1.38 million square feet of commercial/retail space and up to 2,904 housing units, resulting in significant redevelopment potential.

In adopting the DVSP, the City Council directed staff to monitor the City’s degree of success in implementation of the DVSP, requesting subsequent review by the City Council soon following Plan approval. To this end, in 2025, the City retained HdL ECONSolutions (“HdL”) to prepare an economic and market assessment and retail void analysis assessment of the feasibility of the DVSP.

ANALYSIS/DISCUSSION
HDL Peer Review
In early 2025, the City retained HdL ECONSolutions to evaluate the feasibility of implementation of the Downtown Vitalization Specific Plan. In the report entitled, “City of Marina Downtown Vitalization Specific Plan – Peer Review Report” (attached as EXHIBIT B), the consultant team remarked about the aspirational nature of the DVSP and described the low probability for transformation of the subject land into a walkable traditional Downtown accommodating a blend of commercial, retail, dining, entertainment, and parks, with vertical mixed -use buildings and medium- to high-density residential uses as visualized within the conceptual 20-year timeframe. 1 Continued from July 7, 2026
The Peer Review provides recommendations regarding modifications and adjustments to the DVSP’s land use regulations and design standards to create a practically implementable framework for facilitating a more discernible, destination -oriented urban center, as analyzed further below. In response to consultant recommendations, City staff revised the DVSP for review by members of the public and Planning Commission.

Recommendations of the Public and Planning Commission

On May 14, 2026, the Planning Commission held a public meeting to consider proposed amendments to the DVSP. Following deliberation, the Planning Commission adopted a motion of approval on a 6-0-1-0 vote, including the following:

a. Clarification to footnotes 8 and 9 of the draft amended Downtown Vitalization Specific Plan
b. Inclusion of a definition of short -term, midterm, and long -term timeframe and clear connection of programs advanced in the DVSP to items adopted in the City’s budget c. Clarification for connection of Program PF-5 in the included DVSP implementation matrix, with outreach to the business community included in the matrix d. Clear characterization of the distinction between vertical and horizontal mixed -use development
e. Revision to Section 5.5 of the Downtown Vitalization Specific Plan to align with recommended revisions elsewhere in the DVSP, reinforcing the notion that the majority of land within the DVSP qualifies for exemption from vehicular parking requirements pursuant to California Assembly Bill (AB) 2097
In response to comments of the public and recommendations by the Planning Commission, staff have incorporated further amendments to the Downtown Vitalization Specific Plan, attached as EXHIBIT D. Staff underscored that targeted public improvements and facilitation of one or more catalyst projects may act to spur further development within the City’s Downtown. Collectively, the edits assist in further enhancing and refining the document and amplifying the likelihood for its successful implementation.

ENVIRONMENTAL REVIEW
The proposed project will not result in new significant environmental impacts or effects or a substantial increase in the severity of significant effects previously identified in EIR No. 2023100567, which was certified for the Downtown Vitalization Specific Plan pursuant to CEQA Guidelines § 15183; Cal. Pub. Resources Code § 21083.3(b). Proposed amendments to the Downtown Vitalization Specific Plan will not include the potential to induce any adverse physical impact on the environment and therefore are exempt from further environmental review pursuant to CEQA Guidelines Section 15183. The proposed amendments are additionally exempt pursuant to Guidelines Section 15061(b)(3), because there is no possibility that the activity in question may have a significant effect on the environment.

CONCLUSION
Requested amendments to the Downtown Vitalization Specific Plan is submitted for City Council consideration and action.

CITY OF MARINA DOWNTOWN VITALIZATION SPECIFIC PLAN –

PEER REVIEW REPORT
Background
On October 15, 2024 the Marina City Council adopted the Downtown Vitalization Specific Plan (the Specific Plan) and certified the Final Environmental Impact Report. At full buildout, the plan will allow for the development of 1.3 million square feet of new office and retail space while also providing enhanced density with another 2,904 residential units being built.

The Specific Plan was the culmination of multiple campaigns and studies aimed at revitalizing its commercial core and establishing a pedestrian-friendly, visitor-serving central business district. Marina has pursued the development of a vibrant Downtown since before its incorporation in 1975, and over decades, the City has engaged residents, business owners, and officials to define Downtown boundaries and formulate strategic plans to enhance retail opportunities, housing, and transit access. Key initiatives include the 2002 Ad Hoc Marina Downtown Committee's recommendations, adoption of Downtown Vision and Design Guidelines in 2005, the initiation of the Downtown Vitalization Specific Plan in 2006, and the early draft of a Downtown Vitalization Specific Plan which was presented publicly in March 2011. Traffic and retail analyses informed planning decisions, including road design and transit center development, though progress stalled until renewed efforts began in 2017 when another Ad Hoc Committee was formed to address new issues in the Downtown and to complete the long-anticipated Specific Plan.

In early 2025 the City retained HdL ECONSolutions to provide an economic and market assessment and a retail void analysis for the City of Marina. The report was presented to the City Council on April 15, 2025 and based on discussion from the Council, city staff then requested a proposal from HdL ECONSolutions to conduct economic development related services including retail recruitment support services, a peer review of the Downtown Vitalization Specific Plan (SP), implementation strategy for activating the SP and creation of a website and branding for the economic function in Marina. On May 6, 2025 the City Council adopted Resolution No. 2025-34, approving an agreement with HdL ECONSolutions to provide economic development services as described above. This report will accomplish the first component of Task 2. Downtown Vitalization Work – a peer review of the Downtown Vitalization Specific Plan (SP).

Goals for Project

• Assess the SP for its market relevance, along identifying strong points and potential challenges in successfully implementing the SP.
• Evaluate the Land Use and Development Goals, Policies and Programs of the SP.

Market Relevance of the Specific Plan

The stated purpose of the SP is: “to create a unique and identifiable Downtown core for Marina that is vibrant and pedestrian oriented.” The SP very aptly provides a road map that is aspirational in its vision for the future of downtown Marina and provides specific land use and development regulations with customized design standards and guidelines to facilitate implementation of the vision. It is consistent with the Marina 2045 General Plan, assists in planning for future housing needs as called for in the Housing Element and the Final EIR fully analyzes the impacts of all growth contemplated in the SP (1.3 million square feet of new office and retail space and an additional 2,904 residential units) laying the groundwork for expedited approval of development projects and infrastructure improvements that implement the SP’s goals and policies.

That being said, as was stated in the SP (which was based on multiple commissioned economic studies and analyses):

• The Downtown District is largely built out and has relatively few vacant or underutilized lots; • Significant changes to the development pattern of Downtown would require substantial redevelopment of sites to achieve the Plan’s development targets.

Further, the SP is not a “revitalization” plan (i.e. a plan to revitalize a declining area) but rather a “vitalization” plan to suggest an area that never fully developed as a traditional downtown. The building pattern that exists in the SP boundaries was established around the two arterial roads (Del Monte Boulevard and Reservation Road) without regularly spaced cross streets limiting vehicular and pedestrian connectivity throughout the downtown area. The character is: “generally suburban in nature, dominated by a mixture of single-story retail commercial and office buildings, single-family homes, and one- to two-story multifamily residential units. The existing retail and office commercial uses are located primarily along Reservation Road and Del Monte Boulevard and are predominantly oriented in a strip mall configuration with the buildings behind large surface parking lots”.

Transformation into an urban center (as visualized in the SP) that accommodates a mix of commercial, retail, dining, entertainment, parks, and medium to high density residential uses fronting on Reservation Road and Del Monte Blvd, within a 20-year timeframe, seems unlikely. However, with some policy modifications and adjustments to the SP’s land use and development regulations as well as to the design standards, a more discernable, destination oriented “downtown” could transpire.

Land Use and Development Goals, Policies and Programs

Hdl ECONSolutions conducted several site visits to Marina focusing primarily on properties within the SP boundaries but also viewed the Locke-Padden Park area and the two newer hotels on Reservation Road leading out to the beach access area. Then, after a thorough and comprehensive review of the SP, the EIR, the City Council staff report recommending adoption of the SP as well as reading all written comments on the plan and the EIR, HdL has the following observations and recommendations.

Land Use Designations and Intent

Core District: The description/intent” of the Core District is too amorphous, particularly when further coupled with pictures of traditional downtown streets and the pedestrian right of way diagrams as shown in the Figures 4-2 and 4-3 (copied below). The Concept cross section of Reservation Road for the Core District, as shown below Figure 5-1, has only 5’ sidewalks whereas the SP states: 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 (Figure 4-2 and Figure 4-3).

The Core District includes four existing suburban style shopping centers with large parking lots fronting Reservation Road – Marina Village Shopping Center, Seacrest Plaza, Marina Square & Cypress Plaza. As was stated in HdL ECONSolutions, March 2025 Real Estate Market Analysis & Site Assessment for the City of Marina: “the tenant profile for these four centers include national chains such as Lucky Market, CVS, Auto Zone, Goodwill, Ace Hardware, McDonald’s, O’Reily Auto, Grocery Outlet, Walgreens, Taco Bell, Dollar Tree, Jack in the Box, and Wells Fargo. Additionally, there are a variety of smaller retail and service tenants that fill in the remaining spaces. PDF materials highlight tenants with long-term leases, with some businesses having been in place since the late 1960s or 1980s. The four centers benefit from significant vehicular traffic, with reports indicating average daily counts of approximately 19,000 vehicles along Reservation Road and 24,000 on adjacent roads. While these counts refer to vehicular flow, they are indicative of strong shopper presence on weekends and during peak shopping times. The surrounding demographic data (a population of about 22,000 with a median age in the mid-30s and average household incomes around $73,000) suggests a steady base of local consumers whose needs are met by the center.”

The transformation of Reservation Road to an urban downtown street with vertical mixed use (retail/restaurants on the ground floor and offices or residential above) is not likely, but even if some vertical mixed-use developments were to be built, the ground floor commercial would not be successful fronting on a four-lane arterial with only 5’ wide sidewalks. The SP does not include any financing options to create wider sidewalks, narrowing traffic lanes, creation of a wide landscaped median with pedestrian respite areas or bulbouts at major intersections on Reservation Road. However, it is not feasible or practical to expect that these roadway improvements would occur through right-of-way dedications and conditions of approval for each new development.

With this is mind, HdL recommends that both Program M-1 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 and Program PF-5 Establish a Downtown business improvement district or other funding mechanism to organize and finance the construction of downtown infrastructure improvements in more meaningful and intentional increments be accomplished within the “short-term” time frame rather than “mid-term”.

In terms of “vitalizing” the four existing suburban styled shopping centers, an alternative land use concept to explore might be creating 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.

Below is an aerial photo of downtown Pleasant Hill, California. Using redevelopment, the City created a downtown street (Crescent Drive) in an area that once housed car repair shops, auto wrecking yards, and other light industrial uses. Crescent Drive is a two-lane street lined with retail and restaurant establishments, wide sidewalks, plazas and paseos into large parking lots with bigger box retail establishments behind Crescent Drive. There is a four-story parking garage and a movie theater at the south end of Cresent Drive and the Pleasant Hill City Hall is located to the west. Small lot townhouses and median density multi-family uses surround the Crescent Drive shopping area. This could also be a concept to consider for “vitalizing” the Marina Core District existing shopping centers.

HdL recommends that Policy LU-5.1 be amended to read (new language highlighted in yellow):
“Encourage compact, high-density urban form by allowing developments with a variety of uses at the ground floor as well as on upper stories of buildings in the Core, Mixed-use Node, and Transition districts that serve the local community and reduce car dependence for daily needs. Explore and encourage horizontal mixed-use design alternatives to facilitate redevelopment of the suburban shopping centers in the Core area. At the very least, the Core District land use regulations should allow residential projects (including residential on the ground floor) to front onto Reservation Road and Del Monte Blvd with incentives to encourage horizontal mixed use either on the same parcel or adjacent parcels.

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. While this district is located at the intersection of California Avenue which is the only road through from Reservation Road, south to Imjin Parkway and the California State University, Monterey Bay campus, it only encompasses 3 parcels. The two parcels on the west side of California Avenue at the intersection have single family homes on them and the parcel on the east side of California Avenue at the intersection has a motel and gas station. 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)

Transition and Multi-Family Districts: The intent and purpose of these two districts are well articulated and the development regulations are in line with the descriptions.

Appendix A – Development Code: Based on the discussion above, and for the reasons cited below, HdL recommends that the development Code’s Use and Development Regulations be amended as follows to assist in successful implementation of the SP. (HdL is recommending that the Mixed Use Node District be rezoned to Transition so that the Mixed Use Regulation column can be eliminated).

• Use Regulations
o Assembly, Minor - First Floor facing Del Monte Blvd or Reservation Rd. should be permitted (P) in the Core District with a note that states: “Exercise Studios, are permitted uses on the first floor facing Del Monte Blvd or Reservation Rd. All other uses within this use classification are not permitted on the first floor facing Del Monte Blvd or Reservation Rd.” Exercise Studios can facilitate pedestrian activity before and after classes are over and can be designed with transparent store fronts displaying retail items in the front of the exercise studio.
o Child Care Center: Marina Community Development staff have noted that this use classification is not listed as a separate use in the SP development regulations, but is an included use under the “Services, Major” classification with the following definition:
“Any childcare facility other than a family childcare home, includes infant centers, preschools, and extended childcare facilities”. The use classification should be listed as a separate use within the table and the use regulation should be P for all three districts with a note that says: Child care centers are Permitted (P) if incidental to Multi-family Residential. Child care centers not incidental to Multi-family residential are not permitted in the Core District but are permitted in the Transition and Multi-family Districts with a CUP. The SP Use Definitions section should list the Child Care Center use and definition independent of the Service, Major Classification to avoid confusion as to which use regulation applies.
o Dwelling, attached—all floors. Change to Permitted (P) in the Core District with a note that states: Residential projects fronting on Reservation Road and Del Monte Blvd shall include either ground floor commercial or a horizontal mixed use/commercial component adjacent to, or behind the residential.

o Dwelling, attached—above first floor or on first floor behind first floor commercial.

Remove this use classification.
o Parking Area, Accessory. The use regulation should be P(4) for all three districts and revised to read: (4) On-site parking must be located behind the building fronting Reservation Road or Del Monte Blvd or on the side of the commercial building fronting those two streets. The P(3) note should be eliminated. o Park and Recreation Facilities: The definition of this use classification is: “Parks, plazas and recreation facilities and support uses (parking, snack bars, etc.)” It’s not clear if this use was intentionally omitted in the Use Regulations table, but the SP indicates that “parks located within or near Downtown create opportunities for people to meet, recreate, and share ideas. Public open spaces like parks and plazas help make Downtown a destination by allowing visitors to linger and enjoy the neighborhood.” Consequently, HdL recommends that the use classification be listed and the regulation be Permitted (P) in all three districts with a note that says: Plazas and mini-parks within private development projects are permitted. Publicly owned plazas and parks are Conditionally Permitted.
o Service, Minor: Move Animal Service and Professional Offices out of the Services, Minor classification to stand alone as their own definitions since they are listed in the Use Classifications table as separate uses. Eliminate the Professional Offices, Offsite definition as it is redundant and should be regulated the same as regulations for Professional Offices. Animal Service should be NP in the Core Area (as it is not a pedestrian oriented use).

• Development Standards
Remove the Mixed-use Node Development Standards as these three properties are recommended to be rezoned to Transition. The Transition Zone Development Standards should include a note that says that the intersection treatment at the southwest or southeast corners of Reservation Rd and California contain gateway signage consistent with the Design Guidelines Gateway Signage Diagram.

• Design Standards
The design standards for the Core area should include pictures of successful horizontal mixed- use development and modified where necessary to ensure that horizontal mixed-use opportunities are not excluded.

Downtown Community Workshop Summary
1 From Vision to Action: Shaping Marina Together
March 24, 2026
Purpose of Workshop
The City of Marina hosted a community workshop to gather input on the future of downtown, with a focus on the Reservation Road and Del Monte Boulevard corridors. The workshop was designed to explore infrastructure improvements, land use and overall community experience, and to help guide implementation of the Downtown Vitalization Specific Plan.

Workshop Overview
The workshop brought together 52 community members to share input through both an open house and facilitated discussion.

The workshop included:
• Open House (5:00–6:00 p.m.) featuring project displays and opportunities to engage directly with City staff and the project team
• Facilitated Workshop (6:00–8:00 p.m.) with small group breakout discussions and report-outs The workshop was supported by the City’s consultant team, including Tripepi Smith, HdL Companies, Kimley-Horn, and Coats Consulting, who provided facilitation, economic context and technical expertise to support the discussion.

Executive Summary of Workshop Outcomes
Participants expressed strong interest in creating a more walkable, welcoming and community-focused downtown supported by safer pedestrian and bicycle infrastructure, traffic calming and enhanced landscaping. There was also clear support for gathering spaces, community programming and quality local dining and retail to encourage more frequent visits.

While residents were generally open to infrastructure improvements, there was limited support for the proposed roundabouts, with many participants favoring a signalized intersection approach at Reservation Road and Del Monte Boulevard. Regardless of the specific design solution, there was strong consensus that any improvement must prioritize pedestrian and bicyclist safety. Participants also supported corridor- specific and phased approaches to traffic changes.

There was also support for horizontal mixed-use development, with a preference that any vertical mixed- use be introduced conservatively; typically limited to one story above ground-floor uses. Participants noted that shifts in development intensity could require amendments to the Downtown Specific Plan.

Participants emphasized a desire to see visible action in the near term, recognizing that larger-scale capital improvements may take time to plan and fund. As a result, there was strong interest in prioritizing near-term, lower-cost improvements that can deliver immediate impact as funding becomes available.

Overall, the community favored incremental progress that enhances vitality and safety while preserving Marina’s character.

Downtown Community Workshop Summary
2 Participants shared a strong desire for a welcoming, walkable and community-oriented downtown that supports local businesses while maintaining Marina’s character.

1. A Walkable, People-Focused Downtown
Residents emphasized the importance of creating a downtown that is safe, comfortable and easy to navigate on foot and by bike.

Key ideas included:
• Lower speed limits and narrower traffic lanes
• Tree planting and landscaping to create shade and improve aesthetics • Wider sidewalks and pedestrian-friendly gathering spaces • Better multimodal connections, including bike pathways • Reducing the dominance of large parking lots
Participants expressed interest in a town square or central gathering area that could serve as a focal point for downtown activity.

2. Community Spaces and Cultural Experiences
Many groups envisioned downtown as a place for shared experiences and civic life.

Common suggestions included:
• Spaces for community events, farmers markets and festivals • Performing arts venues or cultural spaces such as a museum or art space • Outdoor gathering areas and plazas
• Opportunities for regular programming that encourages people to visit more often There was a strong interest in creating a “cozy,” community-scaled environment that feels friendly to all ages.

3. Support for Quality Local Businesses
Residents want downtown to include more dining, shopping and activity options that encourage people to spend time there.

Themes included:
• Quality restaurants and cafés
• Small-scale retail and local businesses
• Avoiding an overly tourist-focused or overly dense development pattern • Encouraging vibrant storefronts and active ground-floor uses Participants noted that downtown should feel lively and inviting, but still reflect Marina’s identity rather than becoming overly commercialized.

4. Thoughtful Development and Character
There was general support for incremental improvement rather than large-scale transformation.

Residents mentioned:
• Moderate building heights and density
• Enhancing aesthetics through façade improvements and landscaping • Maintaining a horizontal, approachable scale
• Making targeted infrastructure and streetscape improvements

5. Preference for Horizontal Mixed-Use Development
Participants discussed how new development should be structured in downtown, particularly the balance between horizontal and vertical mixed-use.

EXHIBIT C
17 City of Marina
Downtown Community Workshop Summary
3 There was general consensus in support of horizontal mixed-use, such as integrated retail, dining and community spaces spread across blocks or sites in a way that maintains an open and approachable feel.

While some participants acknowledged that vertical mixed-use could play a role, there was strong sentiment that it should be approached conservatively. Many expressed a preference for limiting building height to one story above ground-floor commercial uses in order to:
• Maintain downtown’s human scale and character
• Avoid creating an overly dense or urbanized environment • Preserve visual openness and comfort for pedestrians
Overall, residents supported thoughtful development that activates downtown while ensuring new buildings remain context-sensitive and compatible with Marina’s identity.

Breakout #2: Infrastructure Improvements Detailed Consensus During the discussion on infrastructure improvements, participants shared a range of perspectives on traffic circulation, pedestrian safety and streetscape enhancements. While there was broad support for improving safety and walkability, opinions were more mixed on specific design solutions.

1. Mixed Opinions on Roundabouts and Lane Reductions
Participants expressed divided views on proposed roundabouts and reducing travel lanes.

Some residents supported:
• Using roundabouts in select locations rather than at every intersection • Traffic calming measures to slow vehicles and improve safety • Removing certain left- or right-turn lanes where feasible • Reducing lane widths in specific high-conflict areas
Others raised concerns about:
• Potential traffic congestion
• Driver confusion about how to navigate roundabouts
• Impacts to business access and circulation
• Overall, there was interest in phasing improvements — for example, maintaining signalized intersections in the near term while evaluating roundabouts for the future.

2. Strong Support for Pedestrian and Bicycle Safety Improvements Across groups, there was consistent agreement on the need to improve conditions for people walking and biking.

Common priorities included:
• Wider sidewalks
• Safer and more visible pedestrian crossings
• Enhanced bike safety infrastructure
• Shaded streets with additional trees
• Better connections between residential areas and downtown destinations Participants emphasized that infrastructure changes should make downtown feel more comfortable and accessible for everyday trips.

EXHIBIT C
18 City of Marina
Downtown Community Workshop Summary
4 3. Streetscape and Beautification as Key Infrastructure Elements Residents viewed landscaping and visual improvements as essential components of infrastructure investment.

Suggestions included:
• Tree planting and shade improvements
• Streetscape beautification
• Simplifying roadway design to reduce visual clutter
• Enhancing the overall look and feel of corridors
Many participants noted that aesthetic improvements could help downtown feel more inviting while also supporting economic vitality.

4. Corridor-Specific Considerations
Participants distinguished between infrastructure needs on different streets, particularly between Reservation Road and Del Monte Boulevard.

Some feedback suggested:
• Reservation Road may require more significant safety and circulation changes • Del Monte Boulevard may benefit from more modest or targeted improvements This reflects a desire for context-sensitive design rather than one uniform solution across corridors.

Conclusion
The workshop 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. Participants also emphasized the importance of taking action in the near term, alongside continued planning for larger, long-term investments.

This input 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.

Mayor and Member of the City Council Meeting
City Council of August 5, 2026

THE CITY COUNCIL TO HOLD A PUBLIC HEARING INTRODUCING
ORDINANCE NO. 2026 -, IN SUPPORT OF HOUSING ELEMENT PROGRAM 1.4 BY ADDING SECTION 17.51 (RELIGIOUS AND INSTITUTIONAL HOUSING OVERLAY) TO TITLE 17 (ZONING CODE) OF THE CITY OF MARINA MUNICIPAL CODE; AND FIND THESE ACTIONS ARE EXEMPT FROM ENVIRONMENTAL REVIEW PER SECTION 15061(B)(3) OF THE CALIFORNIA ENVIRONMENTAL QUALITY ACT (CEQA) GUIDELINES.

RECOMMENDATION

1. Adopt a motion introducing Ordinance No. 2026, amending Title 17 (Zoning Ordinance) to implement Program 1.4 of the Housing Element.

2. Find that adoption of the ordinance is exempt from the California Environmental Quality Act (CEQA) per Section 15061(b)(3) of the CEQA Guidelines.

BACKGROUND
On April 11, 2024 , the California Department of Housing and Community Development (State HCD) certified the City of Marina’s Housing Element. Since that time, City staff have endeavor ed to take specific steps to implement the Sixth Cycle Housing Element. In 2026 , approximately six separate actions will be required to be completed by the end of the calendar year. One action is the implementation of Program 1.4 of the Housing Element which mandates a zoning text amendment in support of Assembly Bill 1851 (AB 1851) and Senate Bill 4 (SB 4).

ANALYSIS
Program 1.4 Affordable Housing on Faith Based Properties Several cities throughout the United States have explored the concept of developing underutilized religious land to create housing for their communities. Oftentimes, religious institutions are located on large parcels of land, with ample parking lots or open spaces. As housing costs increase, these underutilized lots can be transformed into much -needed affordable housing developments for local community members. The City of Marina can use these housing units to meet their Regional Housing Needs Allocation (RHNA) requirement. For religious organizations in the Marina community, this concept also benefits them gr eatly. Most of the potential properties for this project are located centrally or in residential areas, with easy accessibility to transit stops.

The proposed Religious and Institutional Housing Overlay Zone (RIHO) facilitates the development of affordable housing for very low -income and low -income households on properties owned by religious institutions, institutions of higher education, and other public or quasi -public institutions.

The RIHO implements Program 1.4 of Marina’s 6th Cycle Housing Element a nd complies with California Government Code Sections 65913.16 ( SB 4), 65913.4, and 65913.6, which require jurisdictions to permit housing as a use by right on lands owned by an independent institution of higher education or religious institution. The RIHO expands upon State law by allowing housing by right on a broader range of institutional sites at higher densities and establishes development standards to incentivize affordable housing and residential development on eligible properties.

CORRESPONDENCE
No applicable correspondence to this permit has been received as of July 30, 2026. 1 CONFLICT OF INTEREST
City Council members are subject to all aspects of the Political Reform Act. City Council members must not make, participate in making, or attempt to influence in any manner a governmental decision which they know, or should know, may have a material effect on a financial interest. Staff are not aware that any City Council member owns property within 500 feet of any affected sites.

Since this is a legislative act that impacts all zoning districts in which single-family and multifamily dwellings are a permitted or conditionally permitted use, the proposed RIHO is not expected to result in any material effect on City Council members’ financial interest.

EX PARTE COMMUNICATION DISCLOSURES
Adoption of an ordinance is a legislative act of the City Council and therefore ex-parte disclosure does not apply.

ENVIRONMENTAL DETERMINATION
The proposed project is exempt from the California Environmental Quality Act (CEQA) under Section 15061(b)(3), as the adoption of the ordinance will have no reasonable possibility that the project will have a significant effect on the environmen t. Adoption of the RIHO does not itself approve any specific housing development project, does not authorize physical development on any property, and does not exempt future discretionary projects from otherwise applicable environmental review. Any potential physical environmental effects associated with housing development that is required to be approved ministerially pursuant to Government Code Section 65913.16 would result from development authorized by State law rather than from adoption of this ordinance. Projects within the RIHO that do not qualify for ministerial approval under Government Code Section 65913.16 remain subject to all otherwise applicable review procedures of the Marina Municipal Code, including environmental review pursuant to CEQA, as applicable.

CONCLUSION
This request is submitted for consideration and recommendation to the City Council.

Respectfully submitted,

Projects that qualify for ministerial approval under Government Code Section 65913.16 shall be processed in accordance with that statute. Projects that do not qualify for ministerial approval under Government Code Section 65913.16 shall remain subject to all otherwise applicable review procedures of the Marina Municipal Code and environmental review pursuant to CEQA, as applicable.

SECTION 3. Amendment of the Code. New Chapter 17.51, “Religious and Institutional Housing Overlay,” is added to Title 17 of the Marina Municipal Code to read as follows:

17.51 Religious and Institutional Housing Overlay.

17.51.010 Purpose and Intent.

The Religious and Institutional Housing Overlay Zone (RIHO) facilitates the development of affordable housing for very low -income and low -income households on properties owned by religious institutions, institutions of higher education, and other public or quasi -public institutions.

Many of these properties have portions of underutilized land, parking areas, or open space that may provide opportunities for housing development while allowing continued institutional use. The 4 RIHO implements Program 1.4 of Marina’s 6th Cycle Housing Element and helps address the City’s Regional Housing Needs Allocation (RHNA). State law, including California Government Code Sections 65913.16 (Senate Bill 4), 65913.4, and 65913.6, requires jurisdictions to permit qualifying housing developments as a use by right on lands owned by religious institutions and independent institutions of higher education through a ministerial approval process, which limits local discretion to prohibit such development. This overlay zone establishes local development standards to implement these state requirements and provide clarity to property owners and project applicants.

The RIHO modifies local development standards to allow higher -density housing on a broader range of institutional sites and to encourage the development of affordable housing while maintaining compatibility with surrounding neighborhoods.

17.51.020 Applicability.

A. The RIHO shall apply to properties in the City of Marina listed in Table 1 that were owned on or before January 1, 2024, by one or more of the following categories of institutions:

1. Independent institutions of higher education;

2. Religious institutions;

3. Quasi-public community institutions, including but not limited to lodges, clubs, fraternal or benevolent organizations, community centers, and recreational centers.

Honorable Mayor and Members of the City Council Public Hearing City Council of August 5, 2026

CITY COUNCIL TO CONSIDER ADOPTING VARIOUS RESOLUTIONS AND

AN ORDINANCE IN ORDER TO IMPLEMENT HOUSING ELEMENT
PROGRAMS 1.2, 6.1 and 9.2 AND FIND SAID ACTIONS EXEMPT FROM

ENVIRONMENTAL REVIEW UNDER THE COMMON -SENSE EXEMPTION
PER § 15061(B)(3) OF THE CEQA GUIDELINES.

RECOMMENDATION: That the City Council consider taking the following actions:

1. Adopt Resolution 2026 -, approving City of Marina Anti-Displacement Strategy addressing Housing Element implementation and advancing housing protections for residents most vulnerable to housing market pressures;

2. Adopt Resolution 2026 -, advancing energy efficiency for housing and residential development;

3. Conduct the first reading of an ordinance approving amendments to Title 17 of the City of Marina Municipal Code, adding Section 17.48.050 ( Replacement Housing) and Section 17.04.214 (Demolition) to implement Housing Element Program 1.2; and

4. Find that the proposed measures, including Municipal Code revisions, are exempt from further environmental review pursuant to Section 15061(b)(3) of the CEQA Guidelines.

BACKGROUND
The City of Marina Housing Element constitutes one of nine required elements of its General Plan, incorporating an analysis of the community’s housing needs and promulgating actionable policies, programs, and strategies to ensure provision of safe, affordable housing stock for residents of all income levels.

Certification of the City of Marina 2023-2031 (6th Cycle) Housing Element on April 11, 2024 by the State Department of Housing and Community Development (HCD), demonstrates that the City has adequately planned to fulfill the community’s existing and projected housing needs, including its fair share of the Regional Housing Need Allocation (RHNA) through the duration of the 6 th Housing Cycle (2023 -2031). To ensure ongoing compliance, the City is required to report its progress in attainment of stated goals of the Housing Element through filing of an Annual Progress Report (APR) with HCD.

Planning Commission Review
To this end, on May 28, 2026, and June 11, 2026, the Planning Commission held public hearings, accepting public testimony and considering a range of strategies for implementing Housing Element programs. On May 28, the Planning Commission adopted PC Resolution 2026 -, approving the City of Marina Anti -Displacement Strategy addressing Housing Element implementation and advancing housing protections for residents most vulnerable to housing market pressures. At the same hearing, the Commission adopted PC Resolution 2026 -02, approving the City of Marina Energy Efficiency Strategy to promote energy efficiency and further implementation of Housing Element Program 6.1 , with a friendly amendment that staff return to the Commission at a future date to discuss the topic of energy efficiency in greater depth. Links to the staff report and resolution related to the Anti-Displacement Strategy and Energy Efficiency Strategy can be found as Attachment A and Attachment B, respectively. 1 Thereafter, on June 11, 2026, the Planning Commission adopted PC Resolution 2026 -, recommending to the City Council approval of amendments to the Municipal Code to implement Housing Element Program 1.2 and ensure ongoing compliance with California State Assembly Bill (AB) 1397 . Relevant documents can be found via Attachment C. In its review of the aforementioned items, the Planning Commission requested no substantive change(s) to any of the Housing Element implementation strategies as presented by staff.

Role of the City Council
The City’s Housing Element contains an Action Plan espousing a number of programs intended to effectuate its goals of provision of housing for occupants at all income levels, as required by State Law. Pursuant to such requirements, t he City Council is requested to accept the Planning Commission’s recommendations and consider adopting the enclosed Resolutions and Ordinance to ensure attainment of its Housing Element goals, as described further below.

ANALYSIS
Housing Element Program 9.2
Anti-displacement is a term used to describe policies and actions intended to support existing residents’ ability to remain living and working in a community during periods of change in the housing market and local economy. Such policies may address housin g affordability, tenant protections, preservation of existing units, replacement of units removed, relocation assistance, financing strategies, employment stability, resident outreach, and similar approaches. Anti - displacement strategies seek to reduce inv oluntary moves and promote housing stability for residents who are most vulnerable to market pressures.

The City’s Housing Element recognizes displacement as a barrier to achieving housing goals and advancing equity. Pursuant to California Assembly Bill 686 (2018), jurisdictions are required to Affirmatively Further Fair Housing (AFFH) by addressing housing disparities and barriers to housing opportunity. Anti -displacement strategies constitute an essential component of AFFH goals and implementation. The Anti-Displacement Strategy adopted by the Planning Commission on June 11, 2026, and available via Attachment “A”, is presented to the City Council for review and acceptance.

Housing Element Program 6.1
Energy efficiency refers to the ratio of useful energy output (or service provided) to energy input in accomplishment of tasks. Stated simply, energy efficiency focuses on reducing energy waste to maximize output with minimum consumption , often through the strategic use of building technology.

In the context of Housing Element implementation, promotion of energy efficiency accomplishes several key aims. Implementation of green building standards improves air quality and building safety, prolonging the useful life of structures in new constructio n and contributing to the preservation of existing housing stock. Reduction in operating expenses simultaneously reduces overall housing costs, allowing residents to remain in their homes, preventing displacement and offsetting the risk of homelessness of low -income residents. Actions such as implementation of green building standards, upgrade of insulation, and installation of energy-efficient equipment, collectively lower reliance on external energy sources and minimize vulnerability to fluctuating energy prices, critical for furthering housing stability in low-income populations.

The City seeks to form a cohesive Energy Efficiency Strategy advancing the attainment of Housing Element Policy 6 and Program 6.1. The Energy Efficiency Strategy as adopted by the Planning Commission on June 11, 2026, can be found linked via Attachment B.

2 Housing Element Program 1.2
The City’s 2023-2031 (6th Cycle) Housing Element recognizes the detrimental effects of loss of existing housing units affordable to lower -income households and acknowledges the associated impacts to the community’s broader aim of provision of housing at a range of income levels for the residents of Marina. Accordingly, Housing Element Program 1.2 affirms the City’s intention of facilitating construction of replacement residential units offsetting those lost to demolition in accordance with State Law, including Assembly Bill (AB) 1397; additionally, Program 1.2 directs the City to take several actions.

In order to ensure conformance with Assembly Bill 1397, Program 1.2 requires that land located in the City’s sites inventory that has ever been developed with housing and, in the past five years, either 1) has been occupied by a lower-income household or 2) has been subject to an affordability requirement for lower-income households, must be replaced by units for lower-income households (households of 80% or less of AMI).

To implement the Housing Element Program above, staff recommend that, as the first of several actions, the City’s Municipal Code be amended to add Section 17.48.050, adopting the provisions of AB 1397 by reference and incorporating the text as follows in italics:

Section 17.48.050 (Replacement Housing)

California State Assembly Bill 1397, amending Sections 65580, 65583, and 65583.2 of the Government Code, as may be further amended, is adopted by reference.

All replacement housing requirements, including those applicable to development, redevelopment, or modification of non-vacant sites, pursuant to California State Assembly Bill 1397 and California State Senate Bill 330 (Housing Crisis Act of 2019), as may b e amended, shall be provided as necessary to fulfill the City’s obligation of Regional Housing Needs Allocation.

A Draft Ordinance, including the above language, is attached to this report.

Second Required Action

The second action listed in Program 1.2 appears as follows:

Monitor development on non -vacant sites identified in Appendix C and ensure that any development, as a condition of project approval, replace the existing units occupied by or deed - restricted for occupancy by lower income households are replaced.

In response to the above, the City’s Standard Conditions of Approval have been revised to include the following, which will be imposed as a condition of approval for any applicable project:

Development of the subject project site, which constitutes a non -vacant site identified in Appendix C of the 6th Cycle Housing Element (2023-2031), shall 1) provide housing units replacing those approved to be demolished, with any such replacement residential units occupied by a lower-income household, or shall 2) be deed-restricted for occupancy by lower-income households for a minimum period of 55 years following the granting of final occupancy permit, as required for consistency with the requirements of Assembly Bill 1397, Senate Bill 330, and, as applicable, State Density Bonus Law , as any such law shall be amended.

3 Definition of Demolition
In consideration of measures to advance Housing Element implementation and prevent displacement of Marina residents, staff recognize that the City’s Municipal Code currently contains no definition for “demolition”. Because Housing Element Program 1.2 serves to ensure compliance with AB1397 and provide housing to replace structures demolished, staff additionally recommend that the City’s Municipal Code be amended to add Section 17.04.214, “Demolition”, as follows:

“Demolition” means the d estruction of fifty percent or more of the exterior walls of a structure, measured either by lineal distance or wall surface area, whichever is less. Physical relocation of an existing structure, either within a subject property or to a separate property, shall additionally constitute demolition.

The Draft Ordinance, including the above language, can be found attached to this report.

SUMMARY
The City of Marina’s Housing Element establishes a clear commitment to furthering displacement prevention, advancing fair housing, and fostering residential stability. The actions recommended in this memorandum provide a framework for implementation of various strategies which facilitate the attainment of the intended outcomes of Housing Element programs 9.2, 6.1, and 1.2. By adopting approaches such as those referenced herein, the City can transform policy adoption into measurable, beneficial results, ensuring that Housing Element commitments effectuate tangible protections and resources for residents. Implementing such recommended measures will assist the City in fulfilling State-mandated requirements, supporting vulnerable populations, and promoting long-term stability of the Marina community through the life of the existing Housing Element and far beyond.

ENVIRONMENTAL REVIEW
The actions taken to advance implementation of the City’s Housing Element will not have a physical impact on the environment and are covered by the common -sense exemption per Sec. 15061(b)(3) of the CEQA Guidelines.

CONCLUSION
Referenced Housing Element implementation measures, including recommended Amendments to the Municipal Code, are submitted for City Council consideration and action.

Respectfully submitted,

8 City of Marina Exhibit “D”
Anti-Displacement Strategy

The following actions collectively constitute the City’s Anti-Displacement Strategy, aligned with existing Housing Element Program 9.2 focused on housing preservation, affordability, and resident stability. These actions are intended to further adopted goals without altering the substance of the Housing Element.

1. Partner with nonprofits serving underserved residents to share information on fair housing, tenant rights, and housing resources .

Leveraging trusted community partners helps reach populations identified in the Housing Element as at risk of displacement. The City will designate a liaison to affordable housing advocacy groups, such as Ecumenical Association for Housing ( EAH Housing), Habitat for Humanity, Community Homeless Solutions, and ECHO Housing, in order to enhance City-stakeholder coordination.

2. Develop a community engagement strategy to disseminate information on tenant rights, rental assistance programs, and protections .

Coordinated engagement strategies advance Housing Element programs related to tenant education and housing stability, ensuring consistent implementation across outreach efforts. In coordination with ECHO Housing, City staff will provide information providing resources regarding tenant rights, rental assistance programs, and potential locations for relocation; post all applicable documents on the City’s website; and distribute out reach materials through in -person community engagement events, such as staff’s visits to the farmer’s market, community workshops, and similar.

3. Partner with a housing share service to promote and support Marina’s aging population.

Supporting housing options for seniors to age in place helps to reduce displacement among fixed-income households. The City will identify and promote house-sharing programs and opportunities, such as available through Home Match Monterey, and make relevant outreach information available on the City’s website.

4. Address corporate ownership of housing.

Rising rates of housing stock ownership by large corporations may induce adverse impacts to those seeking affordable housing opportunities. The City may consider studying, and subsequently taking action to address, for -profit institutional ownership of ren tal housing stock, which research has demonstrated often results in comparatively higher rents, greater likelihood for levying of ancillary fees beyond base rates, increased eviction filings, and propensity for neglected maintenance due to corporations’ focus on maximizing profits for shareholders.

5. Protect affordable units at risk of conversion to market rate by partnering with the Housing Authority of the County of Monterey (HACM) and other affordable housing providers.

Protecting existing deed -restricted units at risk of conversion to market -rate units due to expiring covenants, property owner buy -out, and the like prevents the loss of naturally - affordable units and helps to maintain long-term affordability. The City may consider a number of strategies for protecting existing affordable residences, such as 1) providing a platform for public input (such as public hearings or a comment period) during a specified time period, such as 12 months, following the time a property owner gives notice with intent to discontinue subsidies or expiration of rent restriction and 2) coordinating early to identify sources of financing to enable non-profit ownership.

9 6. Restrict the conversion of lower-income housing units to short-term rentals (STRs) to preserve long-term rental availability.

Preserving the number of long-term rental units helps to stave off the reduction of available housing stock utilized for short -term or vacation rental housing not contributing to the supply of housing for residents of Marina. The City may consider strength ening its short- term rental ordinance (MMC Section 17.06.160) to set a maximum number of STRs citywide.

7. Enact anti-retaliation policies for affordable housing tenants to prevent displacement resulting from enforcement or tenant -landlord disputes .

Supporting tenant protections and fair housing enforcement to shield tenants from the effects of unwarranted evictions reduces involuntary displacement. The City will consider adoption of a just-cause eviction ordinance or policy in order to protect tenants from arbitrary, discriminatory or retaliatory evictions, while ensuring that landlords can lawfully evict tenants when justified.

8. Pursue outside funding and partnerships to preserve or acquire naturally affordable units through community ownership models or nonprofit acquisition.

Emphasizing long-term affordability and stability can be facilitated through non-market ownership models. The City may consider adoption of an ordinance or policy promoting the formation of Community Land Trusts (CLTs) to permanently preserve affordable ownership housing for low - and moderate -income familie s. Strategies may include 1) consideration of donation, or sale at a discount, of land and/or buildings from the City’s inventory to a community land trust ; 2) support of the development of CLT homes by reducing or waiving application and impact fees; 3) relaxation of zoning requirements for parking supply, lot coverage, or similar such development standards; and/or 4) making available similar regulatory concessions.

9. Relocation benefits and right of first return (first right of refusal).

Although existing State Law includes protections for residents of deed-restricted affordable units, the City may consider adopting an ordinance providing relocation benefits, such as payment of two months’ rent, and offering of a right of first refusal, to occupant(s) of any non-deed-restricted (i.e. market-rate) unit proposed to be demolished.

10. Return of Foreclosed Properties to the Lower Income Supply.

Incentivizing purchase of foreclosed properties by affordable housing advocacy organizations can retain distressed properties as housing resources for the Marina community.

11. Preservation of Expiring Use Properties.

The City may consider requiring provision of a platform for public input (such as public hearings or a comment period) during a set period, such as 12 months, following the time that a property owner gives notice of intent to discontinue subsidies or prior to expiration of rent restriction.

12. Provide information regarding programs which promote homeownership.

Supporting homeownership holds many benefits to both residents as well as municipalities.

Homeowners build equity, experience financial stability through predictable mortgage payments, and enjoy freedom of property improvement and renovations not available to renters. Similarly, homeownership benefits the City through fostering a more stable population exhibiting increased civic engagement, tendency for increased property improvement and upkeep, community pride and organizational involvement, and similar attributes which facilitate the betterment of Marina. To further homeownership, the City may identify, develop, and make available information regarding grants, loans, and first - time homebuyer assistance programs and post such information on the City’s website.

11 City of Marina Exhibit “E”
Energy Efficiency Strategy

The City of Marina Housing Element promotes community stability and enhancement of housing opportunities by promoting policies and programs supportive of energy efficiency. In order to promote the implementation of the Housing Element, on May 28, 2026, the Planning Commission adopted several approaches that will, collectively, form an Energy Efficiency Strategy guiding both new development and modification of existing structures, as described further below.

Existing City Actions to Promote Energy Efficiency

As outlined in Housing Element Program 6.1, t he City currently advances the Association of Monterey Bay Area Government (AMBAG)’s Sustainability Program by distributing information flyers at City offices and the Marina Public Library and by informing people verbally of AMBAG’s programs, aiming to provide information to minimally 20 households annually through City Council announcements, local media and the City website. Additional outreach efforts will help to effect Housing Element Policy 6 and Program 6.1, as discussed further below.

Actions to Promote Energy Efficiency
The City seeks to form a cohesive Energy Efficiency Strategy advancing the attainment of Policy 6 and Program 6.1. To this end, on May 28, 2026, the Planning Commission consider ed the following options and provided direction to staff regarding recommendations for future actions to implement, as follow:

1. Provide information regarding energy conservation and financial incentives (tax credits, utility rebates, etc.) through various means, including at the public counter, on the city’s website, at public libraries and community centers, through social media, and the like, in order to advance the community’s awareness of available programs advancing energy efficiency which will simultaneously assist in the attainment of Housing Element goals .

Providing access to information on energy conservation, coupled with financial incentives such as tax credits and utility rebates, assists in building awareness of available programs advancing energy efficiency, thus encouraging behavioral changes and inve stment in building improvements in order to minimize energy consumption while advancing environmental conservation and reducing operating costs.

City staff may create and make available flyers, translated into languages representative of community demographics, which inform about the availability of existing programs, such as the following:

• Low-Income Assistance (Weatherization): The California Department of Community Services and Development (CSD) program provides energy audits and no -cost home improvements for qualifying households, such as insulation and appliance repairs. • Utility-Specific Program: Pacific Gas and Electric Company (PG&E) provides Energy Saving Assistance (ESA) programs, which include free, energy -efficient appliances, insulation, and lighting for qualifying customers.
• Rebates and Financing
12 o Home Electrification and Appliance Rebates (HEEHRA) Phase I Program: Offers rebates for energy-efficient appliances (up to $8,000 for single-family homes). o Federal Tax Credit: Provides up to $3,200 annually for qualified energy -efficient improvements and 30% off for clean energy equipment like solar panels. o GoGreen Financing offers low-interest loans for energy efficiency upgrades. o Energy Savings Assistance Program: Provides financial incentives for upgrading to high-efficiency equipment, improving home insulation, and adopting smart energy technologies. Income -qualified customers may qualify for free weatherization upgrades.

2. Continue participation in Community Choice Aggregation and pursue the development of a Community Climate Action Plan.

Community Choice Aggregation (CCA) allows local governments to pool the electricity demands of their residents and businesses to purchase or generate power on their behalf and serves as an alternative to traditional investor -owned utility (IOU) generation , providing cleaner energy while maintaining low utility costs for customers. The City of Marina participates in CCA, the Community Choice Aggregator (CCA) for the Central Coast, including Monterey County, and may continue such participation.

The City may additionally pursue preparation of a Climate Action Plan, currently pursued as part of its General Plan and Local Coastal Program updates, which, among other elements, can identify specific policies and programs related to green building design and construction advancing energy efficiency providing more resilient structures capable of withstanding climate extremes to protect heat -vulnerable residents and introduce design approaches to lower energy costs and reduce risk from climate-related disasters.

3. Promote mixed-use development in the Downtown Vitalization Specific Plan Area near activity centers and transit routes to reduce vehicle trips and transportation energy consumption.

By requiring compact, high -density, mixed-use, and pedestrian -oriented construction, the City of Marina's Downtown Specific Plan (DVSP) encourages energy efficiency. To create a more sustainable urban core over the course of 20 years, the plan encourages, and, in some cases, mandates, implementation of green building practices, reduced-size parking facilities, improved transit accessibility, and mixing of land uses.

The City can continue to promote compact development and energy efficiency through ongoing refinement of the DVSP to lower energy consumption via promotion of judicious site planning, thoughtful building design, and advanced construction methods (such as use of modular construction techniques, 3D-printing of structures, etc.). The DVSP promotes a walkable urban form that concentrates development around Del Monte Boulevard and Reservation Road, placing a higher concentration of residences adjacent to transit facilities, advancing energy efficiency and reducing construction and heating/cooling costs which can be passed on to tenants . By implementing, and continuing to refine, the DVSP, staff can advance the cause of energy efficiency.
13 4. Adopt Municipal Code amendments promoting strategic site design techniques, including intentionality in landscape placement for enhanced energy efficiency and reducing lifetime energy costs, and encouraging use of alternative fueling systems, among other energy conservation features.

Revising the Municipal Code to encourage, or, through updates to objective design standards, requiring that new development and redevelopment projects incorporate strategic site design promote energy efficiency, can advance mindful development patterns which reduce energy costs passed on to tenants, furthering housing retention and ` preventing displacement and homelessness.

Potential techniques include solar optimization, establishment of buffer zones, and intentionality in shading and landscaping, all of which promote energy efficiency and reduce costs. For instance, passive lot orientation such as placement of a home's longest axis east- west, with its primary living areas facing south and avoidance of the casting of shadows from trees or structures, along with orientation of small-windowed spaces as buffer zones, and placement of roof overhangs for shad ing, reduces reliance on artificial heating/cooling.

Techniques include planting deciduous trees to create summer shade on east/west sides, planting evergreens as north-side windbreakers, and using shrubs to cool air around HV AC units, thereby lowering heating and cooling costs. Encouraging installation of electric vehicle (EV) charging infrastructure in multifamily developments, or, alternatively, EV- ready/EV-capable in site preparation, can reduce reliance on fossil fuel -powered transportation, with its attendant costs dedicated to gasoline purchase and use ; such can reduce overall costs which can help to prevent displacement, particularly for tenants who own all-electric or hybrid vehicles.

Honorable Mayor and Members City Council Meeting
of the Marina City Council of August 5, 2026

CITY COUNCIL TO CONSIDER ADOPTING RESOLUTION NO. 20 26-, 1) ACCEPTING THE DESIGN OF TRAFFIC ROUNDABOUTS AS

PROPOSED TO BE LOCATED AT DEL MONTE BOULEVARD &

STREET M AND DEL MONTE BOULEVARD & STREET BE IN

CONJUNCTION WITH THE CITY-APPROVED RECONFIGURATION

OF DEL MONTE BOULEVARD AND SUMMARY VACATION OF A

PORTION OF EXCESS RIGHT-OF-WAY ADJACENT TO THE MARINA
STATION DEVELOPMENT PROJECT SUBDIVISION AND 2) FIND THE

PROPOSED ACTION EXEMPT FROM FURTHER ENVIRONMENTAL
REVIEW PURSUANT TO CEQA GUIDELINES SECTION 15162 AND
SECTION 15061(B)(3).

RECOMMENDATION: That the City Council consider taking the following actions:

1. Adopt Resolution 2026 - , accepting the design as presented by the project developer , of two (2) new traffic roundabouts, both at Del Monte Boulevard & Street M and Del Monte Boulevard & Street BE , in conjunction with the City-approved reconfiguration of Del Monte Boulevard and Summary Vacation of a portion of excess right -of-way of Del Monte Boulevard fronting the Marina Station Development Project Subdivision; and

2. Find the proposed action exempt from further environmental review pursuant to Section 15162 and Section 15061(b)(3) of the CEQA Guidelines.

BACKGROUND
At the regular meeting of March 4, 2008, the City Council adopted Resolution No. 200 8-45 and Resolution No. 2008-41, approving the Vesting Tentative Map and approving and certifying the Final Environmental Impact Report (“F EIR”) for the Specific Plan, respectively, for the Marina Station Development Project Subdivision, located at the northerly property boundary of the City.

The Vesting Tentative Map consisted of 887 residential lots, including 1,360 residential units constructed over 8 separate phases. Construction of the Marina Station development project is currently underway.

At a public hearing on April 21, 2026, on a vote of 5-0-0-0, the City Council adopted Resolution 2026-46, approving Summary Vacation of a portion of excess right -of-way of Del Monte Boulevard fronting the Marina Station Development Project Subdivision, finding that vacation of excess right -of-way constitutes a minor alignment and street width adjustment , declaring the vacated portion of Del Monte Boulevard “exempt surplus land” , and authorizing the City Manager to execute the quitclaim deed on behalf of the City to transfer the vacated property from the City to the developer , subject to final review and approval by the City Attorney upon compliance w ith Surplus Land Act guidelines . The adopted Resolution referenced future installation of two new modern roundabouts at two intersections, including Del Monte Boulevard & Street M and Del Monte Boulevard & Street B E, as one of several factors contributing to the need for vacation of the excess right -of-way. At the April 21 City Council hearing, the Council conditioned the aforementioned right -of-way vacation on review and approval of the roundabouts.

ANALYSIS
The design and aesthetics of the two propo sed roundabouts at Del Monte Boulevard and intersecting roads providing access to the Marina Station Development constitute elements of significance necessary to facilitate safe and efficient circulation and to serve as a suitable gateway to the City for residents and visitors entering Marina from the north.

Although originally envisioned as an all-way stop control, at the City’s request, the Marina Station project developer agreed to construction of roundabouts as a preferred substitute. The General Plan requires the consideration of roundabouts as alternative intersection control ; additionally, r oundabouts will serve to moderate the speed of motor vehicle traffic and will provide superior safety benefits for vehicles, pedestrians and bicycles, compared to stop - controlled intersections.

Consistent with adopted Resolution 2026 -46, the project developer will present to the Council the design of the roundabouts for Council review and acceptance.

FISCAL IMPACT
None.

ENVIRONMENTAL REVIEW
On March 4, 2008, the City Council of the City of Marina certified the Final Environmental Impact Report (FEIR) for the Marina Station Project (SCH N o. 2005061056). The FEIR served as the environmental review for the development and project entitlements. Section 15162 of the CEQA Guidelines states that , if an FEIR or negative declaration has been adopted for a project, no subsequent FEIR is to be prepared unless there have been 1) substantial changes to the project, 2) substantial changes with respect to the circumstances under which the project is undertaken, or 3) new information of substantial importance shows that the project would have significant effects not discussed in the FEIR . None of these conditions pertain to the recommended action. Further, the proposed action remains exempt from environmental review pursuant to Section 15061(b)(3) of the CEQA Guidelines, as it can be seen with certainty that there is no possibility that the activity in question may have a significant effect on the environment.

CONCLUSION:

The City Council is requested to consider adopting resolution No. 2026- , accepting the design of two (2) new traffic roundabouts , to be located at Del Monte Boulevard & Street M and Del Monte Boulevard & Street BE , in conjunction with the City-approved reconfiguration of Del Monte Boulevard and summary vacation of a portion of Del Monte Boulevard fronting the Marina Station Development project.

July 27, 2026 Item No. 13b
Honorable Mayor and Members City Council Meeting
Of the Marina City Council of August 5, 2026
CITY COUNCIL CONSIDER ADOPTING RESOLUTION NO. 2026 -,

APPROVING THE RECREATION & CULTURAL SERVICES

DEPARTMENT MOVING FORWARD WITH THE PROPOSED PARK

NAMING PROCESS FOR HILLTOP PARK, CITY PARK AT THE

DUNES, AND CITY PARK AT SEA HAVEN IN ACCORDANCE WITH
THE GUIDELINES DEFINED IN RESOLUTION 2002-122
RECOMMENDATION:

It is requested that the City Council consider:

1. Adopting Resolution No. 2026-, approving the Recreation & Cultural Services Department moving forward with the proposed Park Naming Process for Hilltop Park, City Park at the Dunes, and City Park at Sea Haven utilizing the guidelines defined in Resolution 2002-122.

BACKGROUND:

Pursuant to Resolution 2002-122, listed as EXHIBIT A , the Recreation & Cultural Services Department has created a simple application and review process for the community to engage in assisting with naming three separate city parks; Hilltop Park, City Park at the Dunes, and City Park at Sea Haven . Department staff presented said resolution to the Recreation & Cultural Services Commission on September 10, 2025, along with examples of a review and submission process ; instruction was given to provide more detail . At the May 6 , 2026, and July 22, 2026, Recreation & Cultural Services Commission meetings, a draft application for submitting potential names as well as a more detailed submission process and timeline were presented for further review and ultimately approved to move forward for review by City Council.

Resolution 2002-122 outlines a general process for naming City owned facilities and properties. It encourages public support through engagement and submission opportunities and defines best practices for choosing options that best represent, or are related to, the geographic area, terrain, flora and fauna, historical significance, etc. The resolution allows for city buildings, facilities, and parks to be named after people or corporations when a “substantial gift” has been made to that specific project or building . If no donor gift has been given, there are stipulations requiring the person to be retired or deceased for at least two years and have had some extraordinary civic contribution to the community or have had a significant impact at the local, state, national or international level. The resolution also says that no more than one facility or property in the system shall be named after any one individual.

Currently, in the public facility inventory, there are already several locations named after individuals:
• The Public Safety Building and the Bike Path/Recreational Trail named after the late (elected) Mayor “George J. Takahashi”.
• The Teen Center and Animal Shelter named after the late (appointed) Mayor and former Council Member “Zaruk Takali.
• The City Park and Community Center located at 3200 Del Monte Blvd named after the late Vince H. DiMaggio.
1 • The remodeled Community Center named after Ki Suk “Rocky” Han, an “Honorary Mayor”, business owner, resident; and member of Masonic Lodge, Marina Kiwanis, and Tongduchon Sister City Committee.

Windy Hill Park was named through naming contest as part of park construction.

ANALYSIS:

The Recreation & Cultural Services Department will follow the resolution’s best practices in requesting all park naming options have some sort of historical significance or traditional theme of the City, compliment the specific location, or represent the local geographical features. Marina and its surrounding area s have enough distinguishing and unique characteristics in their natural beauty and topography to provide a plethora of choices . At this time the Department will not consider names of individuals or corporations as no major “substantial gifts” were made to the development projects of these propertie s and there are already several existing facilities named after individuals.

The Recreation and Cultural Services Department will conduct a multi-faceted campaign to gather potential names for Hilltop Park, City Park at the Dunes, and City Park at Sea Haven. The two- page application developed, as seen in Exhibit B, will be completed by Marina residents as identified through the provision of their home address and include how their proposed name relates to the location (categories listed) . Completed applications will be turned in to the Department at City Hall or via email.

Applications must be turned in by a previously identified deadline, currently October 31 but that can be adjusted dependent upon when the naming campaign begins. Ideally, the Department would like to allow for six to eight weeks. After the deadline, all applications will be initially reviewed by Recreation & Cultural Services staff to vet residency and validity; those that appear incomplete, are not filled out correctly, are from non-residents, or do not follow the guidelines will be “weeded out”. Applications will then be given to the Recreation & Cultural Services Commission for review. Depending on the number of applications ready for this stage of review, Recreation staff and commissioners may consider holding a special meeting to focus solely on the applications. It is expected that this pool will need to be heavily prioritized and pared down to achieve a manageable selection for review and approval by City Council at a future meeting, ideally prior to the end of the calendar year.

Department staff will advertise the Park Naming Process via distribution of hard copy applications in its Youth, Teen, and Senior Programs, City Hall and the community centers; through a robust and engaging online campaign using social media and the city website ; as well as promotional materials at upcoming community wide events like the Multi-Cultural Festival in September.

FISCAL IMPACT:

There will be minimal fiscal impact on the Recreation & Cultural Services Department for the Park Naming Process to occur. Any costs associated with printing, marketing, and advertising will be covered through the Department’s general budget and funds.

CONCLUSION:

This request is submitted for City Council consideration and action.

4 Naming Policy and Procedure

Policy Statement
The City Council of The City of Marina retains authority for naming all City owned facilities and properties, such as all buildings, major portions of buildings, public streets or roads, stadium and baseball fields and other areas of major assembly or activity, and all other highly visible facilities and properties

This policy is intended to encourage public support through opportunities to name city facilities and properties and only under extraordinary circumstances should facilities and properties be named without a gift or significant in-kind contribution.

Each proposal for naming a major City owned facility or property shall be considered on its own merits. No commitment for naming shall be made prior to City Council approval of the proposed name.

Criteria
A name of a major City owned facility or property must meet one or more of the following criteria:
• It should designate the function of a facility or property. • It should reflect natural or geographic features.
• It should reflect a traditional theme of the City.
• It should honor an individual or an organization:

I . When a donor gift is involved:
a. It is desirable for City Council to name facilities and properties in honor of significant contributors of funds to the City or building.
b. The City Council will take into consideration the significance and amount of the proposed gift as either or both relate to the realization or completion of a facility or property or the enhancement of a facility's or property's usefulness to the City. c. Facilities and properties may be named for individuals or for organizations responsible for a "substantial gift" benefiting the City. The term "substantial gift" in this context is deliberately not defined by arbitrary standards or by a specific dollar amo unt. Its interpretation is meant to be flexible so that each situation may be judged on its own merits and may take into account significant contributions of personal services as well as monetary or in-kind gifts. It is expected that each naming opportunity will recognize the donor according to the level or gift and size of facility. d. A donor gift can provide the funding for that portion of the total cost which would not have been available from any other source (such as federal or state loans or appropriations, bond issues, etc.).

II. When no donor gift is involved:
a. It should honor a person who has achieved unique distinction in the community and other significant areas of public service, or has earned a local, state, national or international reputation, or made extraordinary contributions to the City which warrant special recognition.
b. If a proposal for naming in honor of an individual involves service to the City in an administrative capacity, a proposal shall not be made until the individual has been retired or deceased at least two years.
5 c. No more than one facility or property in the system shall be named after any one individual.
d. In special circumstances, the City Council may waive any or all of the above criteria.

Procedure
Proposals for naming requests in the City will normally be initiated by the City Manager or his/her designee in conjunction with the development program. All proposals for naming from others must be submitted to the City Manager or his/her designee.

Consideration of proposals will be made by the City Manager or his/her designee who may elect to use the assistance of a review committee appointed by the City Manager, if desired. Those proposals deemed appropriate will be submitted to the Mayor for consi deration. Recommended requests will then be forwarded to the City Council for approval.

When required by the City, naming policies as specified in Section I, the Mayor shall forward the request to the City Manager for approval by the City Council.

Each naming request must:

1. Be submitted at least six weeks prior to the City Council meeting at which the item is to be presented. Information contained in the letter of request will be verified by staff.

2. Demonstrate compliance with City Council policy.

3. Succinctly state reasons for the proposed name.

4. Name the constituent group(s) or individual(s) proposing the request. Name constituent group(s) or individual(s) recommending that the City Council approve the request.

5. Include complete biographical data if the name is to honor an individual.

6. Ensure that all participants involved in this process constantly remember that strict confidentiality is required.

7. Identify the "special circumstance" when requesting a waiver of policy, if any.

Upon receipt of the name request, the panel shall consist of the City Manager or his/her designee and one member of each of the four (4) City Commissions.

After its review, the panel will transmit its recommendations to the Mayor. If the Mayor approves the request, the City Manager or his/her designee will prepare a Staff Report/Agenda Item for inclusion in the Agenda Packet and presentation at the next City Council meeting. Confidentiality is to be maintained on all requests submitted.
