STAFF REPORT
CITY OF MCFARLAND
TO: Honorable Mayor and City Council Members
FROM: Kenny Williams, Chief of Police/ City Manager
DATE: November 23, 2022
SUBJECT: Report, Discuss, and Possible Approval of the Appropriations Resolution and the lease agreement with Flock Safety to add 20 Flock cameras to assist with public safety.
Discussion:
Over the last few months, the city has seen an increase in violence with several shootings throughout the city. These shootings are typically gang related and normally involve a vehicle occupied by several individuals who shot from vehicles at their intended victims. Over the course of this year the city has seen three different homicides within the city limits and preliminary investigations indicate the homicides are gang related.
The McFarland Police Department has enhanced its efforts by providing increased patrols as well as coordinating and developing partnerships with other agencies to address these issues.
Unfortunately, because the city of McFarland and Delano are bifurcated by the border of the southern and northern gangs it is anticipated the city will continue to experience gang violence.
In order to enhance the Police Department’s ability to prevent and investigate cases of violence, city council approved the purchase and installation of nine cameras strategically placed throughout the city. The city has used this new technology to assist with investigations, however the city believes additional technology could be beneficial in the deterrence, prevention, and investigation of crimes.
Recently, the city attended a presentation by Flock Safety to examine the feasibility of installing License Plate Readers (LPRs) at strategic locations throughout the city to assist with the city’s efforts. These LPRs would further enhance our abilities by providing the city a method of alerts for certain vehicles as well as enhanced search abilities for license plates and vehicle descriptions.
License plates can be entered into the system within alert parameters allowing for immediate notification upon a suspect’s vehicle entering the city. Searches can be conducted within the FLOCK system for license plates including partial plates as well as vehicle descriptions. The system has the ability to differentiate between vehicle, types, models, colors, vehicle damage, or other specific data entered into the system. Staff believes the addition of this system will enhance the Police Departments investigative abilities.
Staff received a quote from Flock Safety for twenty cameras at a total cost of $115,000. This cost includes the setup, installation, Flock safety advanced search features, and annual fees associated 2 | Page
with adding the twenty cameras throughout the city. In addition, the costs include adding the wing livestream to the city’s system to include twenty of the existing cameras belonging to the city.
The Flock Safety contract is a two-year lease with the first year being $61,000 while the second year would be $54,000. The first year is higher due to the costs associated with the setup of the systems.
Financial impact:
The total impact to the 2022/2023 budget is $61,000. The total impact to the 2023/2024 budget is $54,000.
Recommendation:
Staff recommends council discuss & approve Resolution No. 2022-0124 APPROVING AN
ADDITIONAL ALLOCATION OF FUNDS FROM THE GENERAL FUND FOR THE
LEASE AND INSTALLATION OF TWENTY CAMERAS FROM FLOCK SAFETY
WITHIN THE CITY OF MCFARLAND AND APPROVAL OF THE LEASE AGREEMENT

Falcon Cameras
• Use Cases
• Flock LPRs are designed to capture images of rear license plates aimed in the direction of traffic.
• Flock LPRs are not designed to capture pedestrians, sidewalks, dumpsters, gates, other areas of non-vehicle traffic, intersections.
• Placement
• They capture vehicles driving away from an intersection. • They cannot point into the middle of an intersection. • They should be placed after the intersection to prevent stop and go motion activation or “stop and go” traffic.
• Mounting
• They can be mounted on existing utility, light, traffic signal poles, or 12 foot Flock poles. **NOTE** Permitting (or permission from pole owner) may be required to use existing infrastructure or install in specific areas, depending on local regulations & policies.
• They should be mounted one per pole*. If using AC power, they can be mounted 2 per pole.
• *Cameras need sufficient power. Since a solar panel is required per camera, it can prevent adequate solar power if two cameras and two solar panels are on a single pole (blocking visibility). Therefore if relying on solar power, only one camera can be installed per pole.
• They can be powered with solar panels or direct wire-in AC Power (no outlets). **NOTE** Flock does not provide Electrical services. Once installed, the agency or community must work with an electrician to wire the cameras. Electrician services should be completed within two days of installation to prevent the camera from dying. • They will require adequate cellular service using AT&T or T-Mobile to be able to process & send images.
Solar Panels
• Solar panels need unobstructed southern-facing views.
Pole
• If a location requires a “DOT Pole” (i.e., not Flock standard pole), the implementation cost will be $750/camera.

11 DocuSign Envelope ID: 0C5F7B11-27B7-4F57-8E1A-41B820586ACB FAQs about AC-Powered Flock Cameras
• What voltage is supported? The AC kit is designed to work with 120VAC infrastructure by default. A 240VAC version is available on request.
• How much power does this consume? Peak current draw is 1.5 A at 120VAC. The average power draw is roughly 30W in high traffic conditions but maybe lower when fewer vehicles are present.
• Who is responsible for contracting the electrician? The customer is responsible for contracting an electrician. We can help answer questions, but the customer is responsible for identifying and contracting an electrician. • Who is responsible for maintenance? Flock will handle all maintenance related to Flock’s camera and power equipment. However, any problems with the electrical supply are the customer’s responsibility. The AC junction box has two lights to indicate the presence of power and make it easy for quick diagnosis if there is a problem related to the AC power source.
• If the camera indicates to Flock that there is a power supply problem, Flock will notify the customer and request that the customer verifies the lights on the AC junction box. If the AC Source light is illuminated, Flock will send a technician to investigate.
If the AC source light is not illuminated, the customer should check any GFCI’s or breakers in the supply circuit or call the electrician who installed the power supply. • How much does it cost? Work required to bring AC power to each location will be different, so exact pricing is unavailable. Primary cost drivers include arrow boards and the distance from the camera location to the AC power source. • What information do I need to provide my electrician? The Flock deployment plan and these work instructions should be sufficient to secure a quote. It will be helpful if you know the location of the existing power infrastructure before creating the deployment plan.
• Can you plug it into my existing power outlet? The Flock AC power adapter does not use a standard outlet plug but must be directly wired into the power mains. While using outlet plugs may be convenient, they can easily be unplugged, presenting a tampering risk to this critical safety infrastructure. The electrician can route power directly to the camera with a direct wire-in connection if an outlet is close to the camera. • How long does this process typically take? The installation process typically takes 6-8 weeks. To accelerate the process, be sure to have the electrician perform his work shortly after the Flock technician finishes installing the camera. • What kind of electrician should I look for? Any licensed electrician should perform this work, though we have found that those who advertise working with landscape lighting are most suited for this work.
• What happens if the electrician damages the equipment? The customer is responsible for contracting the electrician. Any liability associated with this work would be assumed by the customer. If any future work is required at this site due to the electrical infrastructure or the work performed by the electrician would be the responsibility of the customer.
12 DocuSign Envelope ID: 0C5F7B11-27B7-4F57-8E1A-41B820586ACB • When should the electrician perform his work? Once Flock installs the camera, you will receive an email alert letting you know that this has been completed. After this, you will need to schedule the electrician to route power to the pole. • What if my electrician has questions about Flock’s AC Kit? You should share the AC-Power Kit Details packet with the electrician if they have questions. • What if the AC power is on a timer? Sometimes the AC power will be on a timer (like used for exterior lighting). Flock requires that the AC power provided to the camera be constant. The source that the electrician uses must not be on a timing circuit. 13 DocuSign Envelope ID: 0C5F7B11-27B7-4F57-8E1A-41B820586ACB What is covered by

14 DocuSign Envelope ID: 0C5F7B11-27B7-4F57-8E1A-41B820586ACB Permitting: Pre-Install Questionnaire
1. Timeline
• In Flock Safety’s experience, in-depth permitting requirements can add 2+ months to the installation timeline. Law enforcement agencies and city governments can work with their local Public Works or Department of Transportation offices directly to help expedite the process. When Flock Safety customers manage the permitting processes, results tend to come more quickly.
• Flock Safety can provide assistance during the permitting process (guidance on required paperwork, who to contact, etc.), but the timeline will be dependent on the customer completing the permitting process.
2. Right of Way
• Will any Flock Safety cameras be installed on the city, state, or power company-owned poles or in the city, county, or state Right of Way (RoW)? • What is the RoW buffer?
• Will additional permits or written permission be required from third-party entities (such as DOT, power companies, public works, etc.)?
• Will any cameras be installed on city-owned traffic signal poles (vertical mass)? • If yes, please provide heights/photos to determine if a bucket truck is needed for the installation.
• Note: A bucket truck is required if the height exceeds 15 feet tall.
3. AC Power vs. Solar
• If AC powered, is there a 120V power source available, and is there access to an electrician who can connect the existing wire to the Flock Safety powered installation kit? (Link)
• If solar-powered, consider the size of the solar panel and potential to impact the visibility of DOT signs/signals:
• Single Panel: 21.25” x 14” x 2” (Length x Width x Depth) • Double Panel: 21.25” x 28” x 2” (LxWxD)
4. Traffic Control & Installation Methods
• If a bucket truck is required, this typically necessitates an entire lane to be blocked in the direction of travel. Can you provide a patrol car escort, or will full traffic control be required?
• Note: If traffic control is required, you may incur additional costs due to city/state requirements; Fees will be determined by quotes received. • If full traffic control is required (cones, arrow boards, etc.):
• Will standard plans suffice, or are custom plans needed? Custom plans can double the cost, while standard plans can be pulled from the Manual of Uniform Traffic Control Devices (MUTCD).
• Will a non-sealed copy of the traffic plan suffice? Or does the traffic plan need to be sealed and/or submitted by a professional engineer?
15 DocuSign Envelope ID: 0C5F7B11-27B7-4F57-8E1A-41B820586ACB • Are there state-specific special versions/variances that must be followed? • If a bucket truck is not required, the shoulder or sidewalk should suffice and enable Flock Safety to proceed without traffic control systems in place. • Note: In some states (i.e., arrow boards), sidewalks may require signage. If signage is mandatory, Will your Public Works department be able to assist?
5. Paperwork & Required Forms
• The customer is responsible for submitting the permits. • Flock Safety will need copies of paperwork to complete prior to proceeding (ex. business license applications, encroachment permit applications). We can save critical time by gathering these documents upfront. We appreciate your assistance in procuring these.
6. Contacts
• If Flock Safety needs to interface directly with the departments, please share the contact information of the following departments:
• Permitting
• Traffic Department
Professional Services Fee Schedule
• Camera relocation, existing pole non-AC powered = $350 • Camera relocation, Flock pole and/or AC powered = $750 • Camera replacement as a result of vandalism, theft, or damage = $500 • Pole replacement as a result of vandalism, theft, or damage = $500 • Trip charge = $350
• Examples:
• Angle adjustment (elective)
• Install additional Flock signage

STAFF REPORT
CITY OF MCFARLAND
TO: Honorable Mayor and City Council Members
FROM: Kenny Williams, Chief of Police/ City Manager
DATE: November 23, 2022
SUBJECT: Report, Discuss and Possibly approve Council Members being eliminated from the City’s provided medical insurance plan in exchange for a $400 per month contribution into each councilmembers retirement savings account (401K) Discussion:
Over the past year the city has been examining the feasibility of restructuring its medical insurance plan. This restructuring was brought on by analyzing the costs of the City’s current employee insurance plans and making the determination the City’s plan is extremely costly in comparison to other municipalities.
In an effort to decrease costs, Councilman Saul Ayon, has requested staff determine the savings to the City if all members of city council were eliminated from the City’s employee insurance plans.
Staff determined there are currently three councilmembers who receive a medical benefit through the City’s employee insurance plan and two councilmembers who have opted out of the City’s insurance plans as listed below:
• Councilmember Saul Ayon………………………………………………………$1832. 53 • Councilmember Ricardo Cano……………………………………………………$1832.53 • Mayor Sally Tafoya……………………………………………………………….$1409.64
• Councilmember Maria Perez Opted out.......………….....…………………………..…..$0 • Councilmember Amador Ayon Opted out……..……………………………………..….$0 To determine true costs savings with all councilmembers being eliminated from the employee insurance plans, staff analyzed what the costs would be if both Councilmember Maria Perez and Amador Ayon were also receiving coverage through the City’s employee insurance plan. Staff determined that both Councilmember Perez and Ayon would likely choose medical plans similar to Mayor Sally Tafoya and therefore staff used the same costs to determine the overall savings as listed below:
• Councilmember Saul Ayon…..…………………………………………………..$1832.53 • Councilmember Ricardo Cano…..……………………………………………….$1832.53 • Mayor Sally Tafoya…………………..…………………………………………..$1409.64 • Councilmember Maria Perez……………......……………………………………$1409.64 • Councilmember Amador Ayon………………...………………………………...$1409.64 The total monthly costs for the employee insurance plans for councilmembers is……...$7893.98 2 | Page
The total annual costs for the employee insurance plans for councilmembers is……… $94,727.76 This plan includes providing a $400 per month contribution for each councilmember into each members 401K retirement savings plan. The annual cost for the contribution for all councilmembers is $24,000.
Financial impact:
The total impact to the 2022/2023 budget would be a costs savings in the amount of $70,727.76.
Recommendation:
Staff is recommending council possibly approve RESOLUTION NO. 2022-0125 TO ALLOW COUNCIL MEMBERS TO “ELIMINATE” THE CITY PROVIDED EMPLOYEE INSURANCE PLAN IN EXCHANGE FOR A $400 CONTRIBUTION INTO EACH COUNCILMEMBERS RETIREMENT SAVINGS ACCOUNT (401K).

STAFF REPORT
CITY OF MCFARLAND
TO: Mayor and City Council
FROM: Chief of Police / City Manager Kenny Williams
DATE: November 23, 2022
SUBJECT: Report, Discuss and Provide direction concerning which insurance broker and which insurance plan the city would like to use for its employee insurance medical plans.
Discussion:
This proposal asks the council to consider changing the city’s insurance broker to allow the city to save costs related to providing employee insurance to the city’s employees. This proposal is designed to decrease the city operational costs associated with employee and dependent medical benefits.
The city is experiencing an increase in operational expenses through an increase in the Kern County Fire contract, an increase in Police personnel costs, and an increase in the city’s Bond expenses. Over the course of this next two years staff forecasts the increases to be approximately $1.2 million to the city’s budget.
Adding to these expenses is the increase in the current employee medical insurance from $953,562 to $1,013,557 annually.
This Proposal contains two sections including:
• Section I: Current employee insurance plan.
• Section II: New Options for employee insurance plans. o Option I: Benefits option insurance agency.
o Option II: HUB international insurance company.
Section I: Current employee insurance plans
Currently, the city has three types of employee insurance plans as listed below, excluding, Dental, Vision or Supplemental insurance. The plans are as follows:
• PPO 250 is a Preferred Provider Organization with a $250 deductible. A PPO plan offers a network of healthcare providers employees can use for their medical care. These providers have agreed to provide care to the plan members at a certain rate. • EPO 10 is Exclusive Provider Network with a $10 deductible. An EPO is a managed care plan where services are covered only if you use doctors, specialists, or hospitals in the plans network (Except in an emergency)
• Kaiser: Is a specific company which offers medical service When an employee is hired by the city, they may choose any medical plan the city offers regardless of the costs. The city in turn incurs the entire costs for each plan. Below is a current break down of employees within each insurance program and the associated annual costs for each program. • Blue Cross PPO 250: 16 city employees have this program at a total annual cost of …......$260,501 • Blue Cross EPO 10: 12 city employees have this program at a total annual cost of……...…$320,107 • Kaiser: 22 city employees have this program at a total annual cost of ……………………$365,655 2 | Page
• Annual cost of all programs………………………………………………………….$946,264 Section II: Options employee insurance plans
Option I Benefits options insurance company
Benefits options provided an estimate of insurance through the use of Anthem Blue Cross and Kaiser. The estimate is $795,281 and includes a breakdown of costs that aligns with current employees plans and provides a cost savings in the amount of $158,280.
Under this plan, the city continues to pay 100% of the insurance premium for both the employee and their dependents, however the costs changes for deductibles and copays.
Refer to the attached quote
Option II HUB international
HUB international provided an estimate of $853,821. This plan incorporated three different options including an Anthem Blue Cross PPO 15/250/10% program, an Anthem Blue Cross PPO 15/40/10% and a Kaiser HMO 90/10/10 plan. The costs savings for this plan is $159,736.

1 CITY OF MCFARLAND
MEMORANDUM
TO: HONORABLE MAYOR AND COUNCIL MEMBERS
FROM: Peter Cosentini, Assistant City Manager
DATE: November 23, 2022
SUBJECT: Policy Direction on First Draft of Cannabis Ordinance Recommendation:
Staff Recommends that the Council review the attached first draft of the Cannabis Ordinance and staff report and provide staff with policy direction on the issues identified in this staff report and any other issues the Council deems appropriate.
Discussion:
As a cost savings measure, we are not engaging the City Attorney until the citizens of McFarland pass the cannabis tax in November. However, staff has been requested to finish the first draft of the Cannabis Ordinance for Council policy input, so the process is closer to launch in November, after the election. We will work with the City Attorney, after the cannabis tax is passed, to incorporate his input and experience into a finished product before Council’s final adoption.
The policy issues the staff needs direction on are as follows:
1. The types of cannabis business license categories the Council wishes to authorize in the community.
2. The number of cannabis business licenses the Council wishes to authorize in each cannabis business license category.
3. The zoning types within which the Council wishes to allow cannabis businesses to work.
4. What safety zones does the Council wish to create.
5. Total square foot limit for cannabis business use.
We will discuss each of the 5 issues below, one at a time, with further background information.
I. Types of cannabis business licenses authorized within the City.
When Proposition 64 was first approved by the voters there were five basis categories of cannabis licenses as follows:
2 1.Cultivation. Cultivation is the process of growing cannabis. Since the initial adoption in 2016, the category has expanded in number by size of the grow and the amount of lighting that is used.
2. Distribution. Distribution is the process of legally transporting cannabis from one location to another. This is done between businesses that legally can deal with cannabis, such as a cultivation facility delivering to a testing facility to check the cannabis for quality control.
3. Manufacturing. Manufacturing is the process of processing cannabis from its raw grown form into more concentrated products such as hashish, dabs, oils, eatables, vape cartridges and other such products. Since initial adoption in 2016, the manufacturing categories have expanded to two, depending on if the extraction process uses volatile solvents or nonvolatile solvents or procedures.
4. Testing. Testing is the process of chemically examining the raw grown cannabis and making sure it has not been mixed with other chemical products or is contaminated to make sure it is safe to smoke or eat.
5. Retail. Retail is the process of legally selling cannabis. This is done two ways. One way is delivering the cannabis by vehicle to a buyer’s house, better known as delivery, or selling the cannabis out of a bricks and mortar store, also called storefront retail.
A. The listing below identifies all the license types that are currently allowed in the first draft of our ordinance.
Type lA = Cultivation; Specialty Indoor; Small.
1. Type 1B = Cultivation; Specialty Mixed-Light; Small.
2. Type 1C = Cultivation: Specialty Cottage; Small
3. Type 2A = Cultivation; Indoor; Small.
4. Type 2B = Cultivation; Mixed-Light; Small.
5. Type 3A = Cultivation; Indoor; Medium.
6. Type 3B = Cultivation; Mixed-Light; Medium.
7. Type 4 = Cultivation; Nursery.
8. Upon authorization by the State of California, Type 5A = Cultivation; Indoor; Large.
9. Upon authorization by the State of California, Type 5B = Cultivation; Mixed-Light; Large.
10. Type 6 = Manufacturer 1. Non-Volatile Solvents and procedures
11. Type 7 = Manufacturer 2. Volatile Solvents
12. Type N = Manufacturer (i.e. no extractions, pursuant to 17 CCR § 40118, as may be amended).
13. Type P = Manufacturer (i.e. packaging and labeling only, pursuant to 17 CCR § 40118, as may be amended).
3 14. Type 8 = Testing Laboratory.
15. As authorized by California Code of Regulations, Type 9 = Non-Storefront Retailer (i.e. retail sales by delivery only, pursuant to 16 CCR § 5414, as may be amended).
16. Type 10 = Retailer (subject to Section 8.29.050, i.e. delivery only).
18.Type 10 = Store Front Retail. A storefront retailer has a physical location where cannabis goods are sold. Store front retailers can also deliver cannabis goods. (Note: The Council needs to give the staff direction on how many of these you wish to authorize, if any.)
19.Type 11 = Distributor.
20.Type 12 = Microbusiness (subject to Sections 8.29.05.04(c) and 8.29.050).
21.Type 13 = Distributor (i.e., transport only, pursuant to 16 CCR § 5315, as may be Amended.)
Cultivation License Types for Indoor or Mixed-Light pursuant to 3 CCR § 8201, as may be amended.
17. Commercial Cannabis types that may be established by the State of California and is determined by the City Manager to be in substantial compliance with this Chapter.
.
(a) Any commercial cannabis activity not expressly authorized by this Chapter is prohibited. (b) The number of commercial cannabis permits authorizing the operation of a microbusiness requiring a Type-12 State License that may be active or valid in the City at any given time shall not exceed thirty-five (35) permits, or a lower number as may be established by the City Council. A microbusiness license type 12 is for businesses that do at least three of the following activities at one location:
1. Cultivation – up to 10,000 total square feet.
2. Manufacturing – use of non-volatile solvents, mechanically extraction or infusion.
3. Distribution or distribution transport – only
4. Retail – storefront or non-storefront. If council limits retail licenses, the retail here could be the one(s) authorized and /or limited to non-storefront or delivery only.
The types of cannabis operations that are being recommended by the staff to be prohibited in the ordinance are all outdoor grow operations.
The types of licenses in the Ordinance that are currently being prohibited are all outdoor grow operations. Outdoor grow operations are not desirable because of the strong smell of cannabis. It can travel quite some distance and is not a pleasant smell. It is better to confine the cannabis in an indoor facility and require systems that minimize the smell from escaping the building. The recommended licenses currently not permitted in our ordinance are as follows:
1. Type 1= Cultivation; Specialty Outdoor; Small.
2. Type 2 = Cultivation; Outdoor; Small.
4 3. Type 3= Cultivation; Outdoor; Medium.
4. Type 5 = Cultivation; Outdoor; Large.
2. The number of cannabis business licenses the Council wishes to authorize in each cannabis business license category is the second topic of discussion.
The Council has the authority to set the number of licenses it distributes in each cannabis business license category. The first draft of the ordinance has unlimited licenses for all license categories except for any outdoor grow operations, which are forbidden. Council members have expressed an interest in limiting Store Front Retail Licenses. One Council Member has expressed an interest in having one Store Front Retail License at the current time. Staff would like Council direction on the number of Store Front Retail Licenses that are desired.
The draft ordinance caps Microbusiness Licenses at 35, or a lower number as determined by the Council.
The recommendation for unlimited number of licenses comes from the standpoint that most cannabis businesses do not interact with the community. Cannabis businesses such as cultivation, distribution, testing, manufacturing, and retail non-store front delivery only are enclosed in a private building not accessible to the public. Employees go into the building to work in the morning and leave at night. That is the extent of the interaction these businesses have with the community. If you have signage that does not describe the business as a cannabis business, the average passerby will not even know what is in the building.
3.The Zones within which Cannabis Businesses are allowed to do business.
Placement of cannabis businesses can be a very sensitive issue. Many communities do not like to place cannabis businesses downtown or in some other prominent place in town. Many communities take the out of sight, out of mind approach. This approach places the cannabis businesses some place on the edge of town in a zoning like industrial, so it is not generally seen by the public. This is the approach the staff has taken for the placement of cannabis businesses in McFarland.
Staff is recommending that the Council authorize cannabis business in the M-1 Limited Manufacturing, M-2 Light Manufacturing and M-3 Heavy Manufacturing. If you refer to the attached map of the annexation area entitled Kern Council of Governments and the McFarland Zoning – Review Map you will see that all of the M-1 and M-2 zones are on the East side of town in the annexation area, with the exception of 3 M-2 zone areas running close to the freeway that is within the old city limits on the east side. There is currently no M-3 zoning in the entire City, including the annexed area. If having some M-2 zone in the old City limits is concerning to the Council, we could allow cannabis in only the M-1 zoning.
There is approximately 800 acers in M-1 and M-2 zoning inside the City, most of which is in the new annexation area. If the Council drops the M-2 zone for cannabis use we still have approximately 300 to 400 acers of M-1 zone in the City, only in the east side annexation 5 area. If you look at the attached Kern Council of Governments McFarland annexation area map, on the east side of town you will see two large industrial areas. The industrial area furthest south is the M-2. The M-1 light industrial is the lighter colored section north of Hanawalt Avenue.
1. Safety Zones for Sensitive Uses
A safety zone is an area around a sensitive facility that is not compatible with a cannabis business, such as a school. The proposed ordinance does not allow any commercial cannabis businesses to be located within six hundred feet (600') from any school, day care center, youth center, public park, or public library (“Sensitive Uses”). The proposed ordinance also has a two hundred feet (200) safety zone around any residential zone.
2. Total Square Foot Limit for Cannabis Businesses.
There is approximately 800 acers of M-1 and M-2 zoning existing in the City. If the Council does not allow the M-2 Industrial Zone for cannabis use, because some M-2 zoning is in the old City limits on the east side of town, we would have 300 to 400 acers left in the M-1 zone of Light Industrial. I would suggest that we allow 200 acers or 8,712,000 square feet in cannabis business use.
Fiscal Impact:
It is estimated that the cannabis industry could bring the City $300,000 - $600,000 on the low side and $1.8 million on the high side of annual income. The amount will raise over time and will depend how many licenses the Council allows and how many cannabis businesses come in.
Next Steps:
Staff needs to take the policy input of Council and redraft the ordinance. Once the tax is approved by the people, staff needs to work with the City Attorney to review the current draft and its many staff changes. We also need to revise all application forms from Arvin and weave them into a smooth application process.
