COUNCIL COMMENTS

1. Councilmember Perez- Welcomed and thanked everyone in attendance. She honored her brother Roberto who recently lost his battle of liver cancer and encouraged the community to get regular checkups and cancer screenings for early detection and treatment.

2. Vice Mayor Cano- Informed the community that the Kern County Cancer Foundation is an organization that helps residents in Kern County who are battling cancer with resources such as transportation, medications, and treatments. He welcomed the community to reach out to the foundation and get the services they need.

3. Mayor Saul Ayon- Thanked Councilmember Pérez for attending tonight’s meeting.

Response to public comment- Mayor Ayon stated that the major issue with potholes in the alley ways is the weight of the trash truck pick up on unpaved surface. He recommended moving forward with front yard pick up’s in the future as this would alleviate the impact the weight of the truck would have compared to a paved street vs an unpaved alleyway. He requested our new Public Works Director Hernandez begin working on this issue.

Browning Road Well Nitrate Issue follow up- Mayor Ayon thanked Channel 17 news station Norma Gaspar and Ruby Rivera from channel 23 news for giving him the opportunity to give an interview to clarify the allegations of contaminated water. He reiterated that the Browning Road well has been offline since October 2023 and that our water is not contaminated. He assured the residents of McFarland that they are doing the best they can to fix the issue.

City Council Meeting

STAFF REPORT
Agenda Item No. 6.

Section: CONSENT AGENDA
Meeting Date: March 14, 2024
TO: Honorable Mayor and Council Members
FROM: Diego Viramontes, City Manager
Paul Saldaña , Community Development Director
SUBJECT: APPROVAL OF RESOLUTION NO. 2024-16 A RESOLUTION OF THE CITY

COUNCIL OF THE CITY OF MCFARLAND APPROVING AGREEMENT WITH CLEARSOURCE FOR UPDATE OF CITY REGULATORY FEES.

SUMMARY:

Cities regularly conduct studies to justify the fee amounts imposed and to optimize the overall portfolio of revenues available to the municipality to fund its services. Industry practice and fiscal conditions in the state have led many cities to link cost recovery for services of individual permits and activities through user fee revenue, relieving the agency’s general revenues as much as possible for use toward services of the broader community. User and regulatory fees are intended to cover all, or a portion of, the costs incurred by the City for providing fee-related services and activities that are not otherwise provided to those not paying the fee.

ClearSource Financial Consulting Services developed the City's cost of service analysis for the City of McFarland in 2020. The City recently received funding from Kern COG which was programmed to update the current fee schedule. ClearSource has proposed to begin the update process on April 1. At the conclusion at the analysis, the City Council will receive information regarding the City’s current cost of providing various fee-related services. This information will be used by the City to inform about potential updates to the City’s fee schedule.

Any changes to fees would require review and approval by the City Council prior to adoption and will be presented in June for Council consideration.

FINANCIAL IMPACT:

Funding was allocated during the midyear budget using REAP grant funds recieved from Kern COG.

RECOMMENDATION:

Council approve Resolution 2024-16 approving agreement with ClearSource Financial Services.

WHEREAS, the City desires to contract with ClearSource to provide a review and update of the current fee schedule.

2.6. If a license or certification of any kind is required of Consultant, its employees, agents, or subcontractors by federal, state or law and regulation, Consultant warrants that such license has been obtained, is valid and in good standing, and shall keep in effect at all times during the term of this Agreement, and that any applicable bond has been posted in accordance with all applicable laws and regulations.

3.3. The amount set forth in Attachment B may be modified or amended only by a written document executed by both Consultant and authorized City representative prior to the performance of the additional work. Such document shall expressly state that it is intended by the parties to amend the terms and conditions of this Agreement.

4. SUBCONTRACTING.

4.1. Consultant will not subcontract any portion of its Scope of Work without prior written approval of City. If Consultant subcontracts for any of the work to be performed under this Agreement, Consultant shall be as fully responsible to the City for the acts and omissions of Consultant’s subcontractors/subconsultants and for the persons either directly or indirectly employed by the subcontractors/subconsultants, as Consultant is for the acts and omissions of persons directly employed by Consultant. Nothing contained in the Agreement shall create any contractual relationship between any subcontractor/subconsultant of Consultant and the City.

Consultant shall not change the scope or duration of work or perform work in excess of the Scope of Work without the prior, written approval of the City by an executed Change Order, describing in detail the revision to Scope of Work, revisions in payment and/or time, fully executed by both parties. Failure to obtain a Change Order prior to the commencement of any revision waives Contractor’s right to payment for such additional services.

7. RESPONSIBILITIES OF AND TASKS TO BE PERFORMED BY CITY. City designates the Community Development Director, to represent the City in all matters within the scope of this Contract relating to the conduct and approval of the work to be performed.

The CITY shall furnish upon request, without charge, all standard plans and specifications and any other information which the City now has in its files that may be of use to Consultant.

8. VERBAL AGREEMENT OR CONVERSATION. No verbal agreement or conversation with any officer, agent, or employee of the City, either before, during or after the execution of this Agreement, shall affect or modify any of the terms or obligations herein contained nor shall such verbal agreement or conversation entitle Consultant to any additional payment whatsoever.

9. TERMINATION OF AGREEMENT.

9.1. Termination for Convenience City may terminate this Contract for City’s convenience at any time by providing Consultant thirty days written notice. Upon receipt of the notice of termination, Consultant shall immediately take action not to incur any additional obligations, costs or expenses, except as may be necessary to terminate its activities.

9.2. Termination for Breach of Contract.

9.2.1. Except as provided in Attachment “C”, if Consultant fails to perform any of the provisions of this Contract or so fails to make progress as to endanger timely performance of this Contract, City may give Consultant written notice of the default.

City’s default notice will indicate whether the default may be cured and the time period to cure the default to the sole satisfaction of City. Additionally, City’s default notice may offer Consultant an opportunity to provide City with a plan to cure the default, which shall be submitted to City within the time period allowed by City. At City’s sole discretion, City may accept or reject Consultant’s plan. If the default cannot be cured or if Consultant fails to cure within the period allowed by City, then City may terminate this Contract due to Consultant’s breach of this Contract.

9.2.7. If, after notice of termination of this Contract under the provisions of this section, it is determined for any reason that Consultant was not in default under the provisions of this section, or that the default was excusable under the terms of this Contract, the rights and obligations of the parties shall be the same as if the notice of termination had been issued pursuant to Article 8 Termination for Convenience.

In the event the City should ever desire to undertake a project or review other proposed projects based upon the documents, the Consultant agrees that the City shall have the right to reuse all or any portion of the documents at no additional compensation to the Consultant. For the avoidance of doubt, nothing in this Agreement shall be understood to grant City rights to pre-existing intellectual property of Consultant, including Consultant software and licensed software, or to any improvements thereto. Consultant shall have no liability arising from the use of any work product for any purpose or on any project other than that for which it was produced.

12. INDEPENDENT CONTRACTOR.

12.1. The Consultant shall perform the services provided for herein in a manner of Consultant's own choice, as an independent Contract and in pursuit of Consultant's independent calling, and not as an employee of the City.

12.2. If the Consultant subcontracts any of the work to be performed under this Agreement pursuant to the terms of this Agreement, Consultant shall be as fully responsible to the City or the acts and omissions of the Consultant's subcontractor and of

Page 56 of 222 ends

Page 7 of 18 ends

PROFESSIONAL CONSULTANT SERVICES AGREEMENT
the persons either directly or indirectly employed by the subcontractor, as Consultant is for the acts and omissions of persons directly employed by Consultant. Nothing contained in the Agreement shall create any contractual relationship between any subcontractor of Consultant and the City. The Consultant shall bind every subcontract by the terms of the Agreement applicable to Consultant's work, including indemnity and insurance requirements.

13. HOLD HARMLESS AND INDEMNIFICATION.

13.1. Indemnification - It is understood and agreed that Consultant has the professional skills, experience, and knowledge necessary to perform the work agreed to be performed under this Agreement and that City relies upon the professional skills of Consultant to do and perform Consultant's work in a skillful and professional manner, and Consultant thus agrees to so perform the work.

13.2. Acceptance by City of the work performed under this Agreement does not operate as a release of said Consultant from such professional responsibility for the work performed. It is further understood and agreed that Consultant is apprised of the scope of the work to be performed under this Agreement and Consultant agrees that said work can and shall be performed in a fully competent manner.

13.3. Consistent with California Civil Code section 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 under said section 2782.8, Consultant shall, to the fullest extent permitted by law, indemnify, protect, immediately defend, and hold harmless City, and its officers, employees, agents, and volunteers, from and against all third-party claims, demands, damages, costs, or liability (including liability for claims, suits, actions, arbitration proceedings, administrative proceedings, regulatory proceedings, losses, expenses, or costs of any kind, interest, defense costs, and expert witness fees) to the extent arising out of, pertaining to, or relating to the negligence, recklessness, or willful misconduct of Consultant, its officers, employees, subcontractors, subconsultants or agents during the performance this Agreement, or from any violation of any federal, state, or municipal law or ordinance to the extent caused, by the negligence, reckless, or willful misconduct of Consultant or its employees, subcontractors, or agents, or by the quality or character of Consultant’s work, excepting only liability arising from the sole or active negligence, or intentional misconduct of City, its officers, employees, agents, and volunteers.

13.4. Other than in the performance of professional services by a design professional, which law shall be solely as addressed in subparagraph 12.3 above, and to the fullest extent permitted by law, Consultant shall indemnify, protect, defend, and hold harmless City, and its officers, employees, agents, and volunteers, from and against any third-party claims, demands, damages, costs, or liability (including liability for claims, suits, actions, arbitration proceedings, administrative proceedings, regulatory proceedings, losses, expenses, or costs of any kind, interest, defense costs, and expert witness fees) to the extent arising out of the negligent performance of this Agreement by Consultant, its officers, employees, agents, subcontractors and subconsultants, excepting only that resulting from

Page 57 of 222 ends

Page 8 of 18 ends

PROFESSIONAL CONSULTANT SERVICES AGREEMENT
the, sole or active negligence, or intentional misconduct of City, its officers, employees, agents, and volunteers. It is understood that the duty of Consultant to indemnify and hold harmless includes the duty to defend as set forth in section 2778 of the California Civil Code. Notwithstanding any provision of law to the contrary, Consultant shall have the right to defend and settle any action for which indemnification is sought, provided that it shall not enter into any settlement that requires an admission of wrongdoing by any indemnitee without that indemnitee’s approval. Consultant’s obligations under this Agreement are contingent upon timely receipt of notice of the claim for which indemnification is sought, such that defense of the claim is not prejudiced, and the reasonable assistance of the indemnitee in connection with the defense of the claim.

13.5. Acceptance of insurance certificates and endorsements required under this Agreement does not relieve Consultant from liability under this indemnification and hold harmless clause. This indemnification and hold harmless clause shall apply whether or not such insurance policies shall have been determined to be applicable to any of such damages or claims for damages.

14. ASSIGNMENT OF AGREEMENT. Consultant is without right to and shall not assign this Agreement or any part thereof or any monies due hereunder without the prior written consent of the City, which shall not be unreasonably delayed or withheld.

Order Consultant to stop work under this Agreement or withhold any payment which becomes due to Consultant hereunder, or both stop work and withhold any payment, until Consultant demonstrates compliance with the requirements hereof;
iii. Terminate this Agreement.
iv. Exercise of any of the above remedies, however, is an alternative to other remedies City may have and is not the exclusive remedy for Consultant's failure to maintain insurance or secure appropriate endorsements.

Attention: Paul Saldana | Community Development Director 401 West Kern Avenue
McFarland, California 93250
DIGITAL TRANSMISSION TO: [email protected]
To Mr. Saldana:

Thank you for the opportunity once again to provide cost of service and fee consulting for the City of McFarland. ClearSource Financial Consulting is well-qualified, available, and equipped to complete the scope of work envisioned by the City. As we have endeavored in our previous engagements with the City, we bring an open mind for change and exhibit the energy to do the heavy lifting it takes for a fresh look on the cost recovery topics. We commit to the City of McFarland to provide premier service, on time, and within budget:

We routinely demonstrate care
about the details and the
rightful influence of local
conditions. We do the hard
work to achieve modern and
meaningful outcomes that reflect
the way our clients serve their
communities today.

We know time is of the essence
in this work: a key determination
of success and satisfaction for
many of our city clients. All
project reporting will be ready
90 days from project start, with
public hearing and approval
targeted for June 26, 2024.

We will finish the scope of
services without change
orders, which is our standard
practice. We do not ask our
clients to bear the risk in
estimating what it takes to do
this work thoroughly and with
successful enactment.

I founded ClearSource Financial Consulting in 2011 to focus on these principles in service solely to California public agencies. As President, I am authorized to negotiate and bind ClearSource contractually under the City’s terms. My signature obligates ClearSource to the commitments in this proposal and confirms that it shall remain valid for a period of 90 calendar days from submittal.

Sincerely,

SCOPE OF SERVICES
The City of McFarland is engaging a consultant to
conduct a User Fee Study. This type of study is
focused on the ethic of “the costs to serve” as the
essential justification for fees in California to be
enacted through action by the local governing body.

Broadly speaking, the cost of service-based fee
study answers:
 What are the full costs – direct and
indirect/administrative – of services provided to
the community, which currently have or may be
eligible for a user or regulatory fee?
 What are the cost recovery targets or policies of
the agency as to the amounts that should be
paid for those who request or cause these
services?
 What structure of fee ensures a reasonable
relationship between a fee amount paid and the
underlying costs to serve?
 What is the impact to the source funds of
changes to user/regulatory fees?
ClearSource has reviewed the City’s prevailing
Master Fee Schedule, and we expect the following
fees to be included in the project, with additional
identification of service categories inside these fee
topics expected to be added as a normal course of
this type of study:
 Building
 Planning
 Land Development Engineering and
Encroachment Permits
 Technology Enhancement Fee
 General Plan Update Fee
 Training Fee
 Animal Regulation and Licensing
(Revenue streams excluded from this study due to differing authority, implementation and analytical methods, and approval procedures are: utility rates and other property-related fees subject to Proposition 218 proceedings, assessments,
development impact fees, in-lieu fees, fees intended and codified more as “taxes,” punitive fines/penalties, and general taxes.) The following fundamental components are
embedded in the ClearSource approach to a user
fee study for California municipalities:
 Adherence to the state’s legal boundaries:

Article XIIIC of the California Constitution,
Proposition 218, and Proposition 26, which direct
fees be set according to the estimated
reasonable cost of service and bear a fair and
reasonable relationship to the payer’s burdens
on or benefits received from agency service.
 Drafting of a Fee Schedule for participating
department/division services, drawing upon
existing fee-based service categories and
additional services eligible for fee-based cost
recovery identified by both staff experience and
ClearSource industry experience through the
study effort.
 Development of a functionally layered “full cost
of service” to represent the maximum limit for
fees and cost recovery, inclusive of direct and
indirect costs of service from participating
agency divisions and centralized agency
services.
 Valuation of agency time in providing direct
services, serving as the basis for fee structures
or for direct billing.
 Development of cost recovery policy and
practices, which optimize the agency’s array of
funding sources considering public and private
benefits, market sensitivity, compliance and
behavior modification, and fiscal constraints.
 Remodeling of any existing fee structures where
cost profiles or agency operations necessitate
change for improved recovery or more efficient
or accurate collections.
 Full support and flexibility to complete the
administrative record and pursue successful
adoption and implementation of fee proposals.

Page 81 of 222 ends

SCOPE OF SERVICES
 Reflection of local values, including internal
perspectives and practices and existing
legislative policy or common direction.
 Adherence to committed schedule as a critical
factor in supporting City priorities and fostering
broad satisfaction with the project.
 No limit on number and format of events
needed to bring the project within this identified
Scope of Services to successful completion.
 Delivery of tools designed to be used actively
and essential to the City’s ongoing successful
update and maintenance of user fee outcomes.

ClearSource presents the following work plan to complete the scope of services envisioned by the City of McFarland for the User Fee Study. The City’s required services and deliverables are included in task descriptions.

ClearSource will generate common understanding of objectives, known issues that must be addressed by study end, participant roles, expected procedural requirements, schedule and preestablished dates, and data collection and development processes. Most significantly, we will examine prevailing fees for known issues and to discuss initial and potential modifications to fee structures, practices, and policies. We will assess prevailing fees and methods to understand effectiveness of current structures, including perceived cost recovery, perceived equity, alignment of fee categories with the manner in which work is performed, perceived competitiveness in the region, and feasibility or accuracy of billing within current capabilities. We will draft initial user/regulatory fee structures, where remodeling is predicted, to direct downstream data development steps.

Meeting with City project management team; meeting(s) with individual direct service providers overseeing fee categories under review, if different from project management team Drawing from existing City fee listings, collaboration with City staff, and consultant industry experience, ClearSource will outline a targeted schedule of service categories for which fees will be analyzed and developed. Efforts will use departmental staff time to review and discuss their experience with existing fees (amounts, structures, and practices) and provide sample fee categories and structures from other agencies in ClearSource’s experience.

Meetings with individual direct service providers to discuss fee-based services (may be combined with event(s) in Task 1)
Draft outline for the Fee Schedule (service categories) ClearSource will develop the necessary foundation for subsequent quantitative analysis, with focus on preparing the body of data that will inform every downstream element of the fee study.

To develop financial inputs, we will gather and model financial data including: current and historical fee revenues, personnel and contractor costs and organization, adopted line-item expenditures, forecasted periodic outlays, and allocated indirect costs via existing plan or surrogate developed for this study. To develop and test labor time inputs, based on prevailing and future business processes, we will gather and develop expressions of time by utilizing any existing labor time-tracking data; conducting interviews to estimate a distribution of annual time across core functions of service; developing service time questionnaires linked to remodeled fee structures to estimate average or range of service times for fee-based services; applying industry

Page 82 of 222 ends

SCOPE OF SERVICES
experience to populate under-developed or unavailable time estimates; analyzing any existing data sets that inform workload/activity/use levels and project profiles; and reconciling annual time, service time estimates, and service volumes to test reasonableness of critical assumptions.

Meetings with individual direct service providers to develop critical inputs (may be combined with event(s) in Task 2)
Labor time profiles for fee-based service categories with applicable reasonableness testing ClearSource will develop fully burdened hourly labor rates in each department/division participating directly in the provision of services associated with a fee under review. Rates will be built to encompass labor costs, non-labor operating costs, departmental and/or divisional administration, Citywide central services/general administration, and periodic investments. Rates will be expressed by function of direct and indirect service within each department/division, where applicable and to enable cost recovery considerations for certain fee categories. Rates may be expressed as composite for the department/division, for the position class, and/or by individual position.

Fully burdened hourly rates for departments, divisions, and/or position classes ClearSource will apply the outcomes from Tasks 1 through 4 – an assessment of existing fees and interaction with City staff to understanding current practices and work flow – to ensure cost of service analysis aligns with the fee structures recommended from that work, which may include elements of prevailing fees, recommendations based on prevailing business processes, system capabilities, and relevant market or industry practices applicable to City work flow. We will prepare a working model of a master fee schedule to guide subsequent analysis.

Working model for the Fee Schedule (service categories and fee structure) ClearSource will prepare a cost of service model to join fully burdened hourly labor rates, time estimates associated with current work flow and business processes, and existing or any redesigned fee structures, in order to calculate the full unit cost of service associated with each fee category and layers within them. The full cost of service informs the maximum fee amount allowed under California framework for establishing user/regulatory fees by City Council action.

The full cost of service at the fee or programmatic level is composed of direct labor and non-labor costs, indirect labor and non-labor costs, periodic outlays of direct or indirect benefit, departmental overhead, and Citywide overhead. Analysis will include modeling of activities with under-developed or no fee imposed but where one is warranted and practical to improve the City’s cost recovery from private benefit activities.

Activity-level/unit costs of service and current recovery performance of the full cost

SCOPE OF SERVICES
ClearSource will recommend cost recovery targets for fee-based services or work with City staff in developing cost recovery policy to inform final fee amounts, particularly where full cost recovery is deemed unfeasible. Development of cost recovery policy and practices will optimize the City’s array of funding sources considering public/private benefits, market sensitivity, compliance and behavior modification, and fiscal constraints. We will review and recommend where warranted associated fee practices, including waivers, discounts, deposit amounts, fee/deposit collection practices, and economic incentive practices. To the degree a multi-year approach may be warranted for achieving cost recovery targets, ClearSource will develop options and recommended approach for implementation.

ClearSource will develop a publishable fee schedule for the City, useful in presenting proposals, as well as communicating fee descriptions, fee amounts, and charge bases to the public and to other City departments, who may have responsibility for maintaining Citywide schedules of fees.

The fee schedule developed can also include a tool for subsequent annual inflationary adjustments to the established fee structures between comprehensive cost of service studies. To the extent existing data systems enable it, revenue estimates from proposed fees based on historical or projected performance will be attempted, and we will compare prior fees in targeted service categories to assist in explaining impacts of notable changes. ClearSource will prepare a comparison of fees to other municipalities in targeted service categories as needed, likely by creating profiles for an array of “typical” uses in addition to one-for-one comparisons.

Cost recovery policy framework and accompanying proposed Fee Schedule, including comparisons and revenue impacts; direction on subsequent fee adjustments to meet cost recovery targets; and tool for subsequent annual inflation-based management of fees between comprehensive studies
ClearSource will prepare the administrative record for pursuing implementation of revised fees.

This focuses on the draft and final reports of cost of service findings, including assumptions, critical data, and discussion of expected impacts. Analytical detail will be included, as well as executive summary and infographics useful in public presentation and legislative processes. We will deliver the editable analytical models used to develop fees, including the detailed working master fee schedule and its streamlined, user-friendly publishable version. ClearSource will also provide presentation/summary materials for communicating proposals and assistance with both the staff report and public hearing noticing, as well as content for enacting legislation. ClearSource will provide a training session and appropriate documentation for the City’s future maintenance of master fee schedule.

Master Fee Schedule (including any subsequent year adjustments to meet cost recovery targets); Microsoft Excel-based and editable analytical models to calculate cost of service based fees; comprehensive report identifying detailed full costs of service (direct and indirect), current and recommended cost recovery, revenue impacts of recommended fees, and comparison of fees to other cities; report in bound paper copies and digital file; training for City staff in future management of fees and deliverable models

SCOPE OF SERVICES
Throughout the study and at its concluding stages, ClearSource will facilitate a meaningful level of interaction between consultants, City personnel, and City Councilmembers or other City Commission(s) to ensure applicable and sustainable outcomes and wide understanding of impacts. ClearSource does not impose limits on number of engagements within our defined work plan and to usher study outcomes to successful implementation. This engagement can additionally include planned events with City stakeholders, should the City deem it necessary.

Meetings with City project management team; meetings with individual direct service providers with fees under review, meeting with any applicable stakeholders; meetings with City Council and/or other City commission or committee); public hearing(s) ClearSource forecasts to deliver final events for the
User Fee Study 90 days from project
commencement.

Exhibit 3 illustrates a timeline for consulting task
completion, delivery of reports, and approval
procedures. We anticipate a start date of April 1 for
the study and a public hearing during City Council
meeting on June 26, 2024. If approved, the
complete schedule of user and regulatory fees will
take effect 60 days later, no later than September 1,
2024.

FEE PROPOSAL
ClearSource has developed the
work plan and schedule described earlier and
designed to deliver a successful User Fee Study to
the City of McFarland. To complete that project,
ClearSource proposes a total maximum cost for
this contract at $18,500.

ClearSource commits
to finish the project as described in our work plans
without change orders. This is our standard
practice. We do not request contract
amendments for additional meetings, extra
analytical scenarios, or any extended work to aid
City staff or Council consideration. These are
normal occurrences in these types of studies and
part of the standard effort required to usher study
findings to successful conclusion. Our proposed
price is set to accomplish the work thoroughly
without upward risk to the City.

The maximum
consulting fee presented here is based on the
ClearSource team’s experience with other similarly
scoped and scaled California cities in past studies:
careful review of the City of McFarland’s existing
potential fee categories for study, service
provisions, organizational structure, and apparent
financial performance, noting the breadth of City
services that will fall under review in this effort. Our proposal ensures that all user/regulatory fees
eligible for the prescribed methodologies can be
analyzed without shortcuts or explanations for
non-analysis and that the process is carried
through to successful implementation of feasible
outcomes.

Exhibit 4 on the following page illustrates the
detail behind our presented maximum price for the
User Fee Study. This includes our estimated
consultant labor time paired with hourly billing
rates by task described in the ClearSource work
plan.

The proposed
consulting fee presented is based on assumed
time to complete the scope of services paired with
hourly billing rates for ClearSource consultants.

The schedule of hourly billing rates for all positions
contemplated in this project is as follows:
 Rates fixed through September 30, 2024:
- Project Manager: $185 per hour
- Principal Consultant: $185 per hour
- Senior Consultant: $185 per hour
ClearSource does not bill
clients for ordinary direct expenses, such as travel
and document production. All costs incurred by
ClearSource to complete the City’s project as
currently scoped are embedded in our
professional rates. The City’s project does not
contemplate and include extraordinary expenses
such as mailing or polling as part of the
consultant’s required deliverables; therefore, no
cost above the billed time of our professionals is
proposed in our consulting fee.

Should the City seek an amendment to the
contract to add consulting services it did not
contemplate in its original scope of services as of
this submittal date, ClearSource will estimate an
additional consulting fee using the professional
rates listed above.

As emphasized earlier, ClearSource will not
request contract amendments to compensation
to handle normal fluctuations in the scope of
services already defined, such as unplanned
meetings, scenarios, or elongated review
processes. An example of a situation when “added
services” would apply is adding a cost allocation
plan to the project.

ClearSource will issue monthly progress reports to
the City. Accompanying monthly invoices will be
based on progress recorded to the project

Page 86 of 222 ends

FEE PROPOSAL
following the major tasks described in the Work
Plans. We will not invoice for tasks not yet
completed, and we will not submit a final invoice
for the study until work is completed. Total
invoices issued over the course the study will not
exceed the maximum price presented here.

MCFARLAND 401(k) PROFIT SHARING PLAN
SUMMARY:

The City of McFarland operates a 401(k) Profit Sharing Plan for its employees, providing them with a valuable retirement savings option. The plan is overseen by designated trustees who are responsible for ensuring its proper administration and compliance with legal requirements.

Currently, the trustees of the City of McFarland 401(k) Profit Sharing Plan are Diego Viramontes, the City Manager, and Kenny Williams, former City Manager. However, Mr.

Williams retired and vacated his City Manager role on 2/29/2024. Consequently, it is necessary for the City to assign a new trustee who is an active employee and privy to confidential personnel data.

Staff recommends amending the City of McFarland 401(k) Profit Sharing Plan to remove Mr.

Kenny Williams as trustee and add Ms. Serrena McCuan, Human Resources Director, as trustee for the plan. This change ensures that the plan continues to be overseen by individuals who are actively engaged in the management of City affairs and are equipped to handle confidential personnel data.

SUBJECT: RECEIVE AND FILE - CITY OF MCFARLAND HAZARD MITIGATION PLAN UPDATE
SUMMARY:

The City of McFarland is currently updating the Hazard Mitigation Plan. The Plan identifies potential hazards for the City and outlines measures that would be taken to mitigate damage from such hazards. The plan is a federal and state requirement and makes the City eligible for grants from the California Governor’s Office of Emergency Services (CAL OES) and the Federal Emergency Management Agency (FEMA). The city’s most recent local hazard mitigation plan expired in December of 2021
On January 26, 2023, the Council adopted Resolution No. 2023-0007 awarding the contract to Dynamic Planning + Science for an updated Local Hazard Mitigation Plan, funded by grant funds.

The draft Hazard Mitigation Plan is now available for public comment, a draft of which is attached. McFarland – HMP Draft – Mitigate Hazards. Concurrent with the public review period, the draft is being submitted to the Cal OES and FEMA. Once accepted by Cal OES and FEMA, the final plan will be brought back before Council for final adoption and transmitted to the County for inclusion in the Kern County Multi Jurisdiction HMP.

FINANCIAL IMPACT:

Upon final approval, the HMP allows the City to submit grant requests for project funding that mitigates the hazards identified in the plan such as flooding mitigation.

RECOMMENDATION:

Information item only.

Section 1. City of McFarland
This Annex details the hazard mitigation planning elements specific to the City of cFarland, a previously participating jurisdiction in the Kern County Multi-Jurisdictional Hazard Mitigation Plan (MJHMP) 2020 update effort. This Annex is not intended to be a standalone document, but rather appends to and supplements the information contained in the umbrella plan document (henceforth referred to as “Volume 1”). As such, all sections of the umbrella plan, including the planning process and other procedural requirements, apply to and are satisfied by the City of McFarland. This Annex provides additional information specific to the City of McFarland with a focus on providing additional details on the planning process, risk assessment, local vulnerabilities, and mitigation strategy for this community.

1.1 Planning Methodology
The City of McFarland followed the planning process detailed in Volume 1, Section 3 of the Kern County umbrella document, including participating in the County Hazard Mitigation Planning Committee (HMPC) and formulating their own internal planning team to support local planning and outreach activities.During the 2020 update process, McFarland city staff attended 2 out of 4 of the stakeholder group meetings, and the city was on track to fulfill all the requirements of a participating jurisdiction to the 2020 Kern County MJHMP effort. These efforts were paused in late 2020 in favor of updating the city’s HMP from 2016 as a standalone HMP. When the planning process was re-initiated in early 2023, city staff and stakeholders (including representatives from Kern County Office of Emergency Services) collectively made the decision to reintegrate the City of McFarland as an Annex to the original 2020 MJHMP, with the goal of strengthening collaboration between McFarland and its neighboring jurisdictions, including Kern County, in the context of regional mitigation projects.

The 2023 update process for this Annex included 3 additional meetings with internal Planning Committee members to discuss hazard information and mitigation priorities specific to McFarland; as well as a targeted public outreach campaign to survey perspectives from the local community. Internal planning participants and a description of their respective involvement in the planning process are shown in Table 1-1.

Full documentation of these efforts is available in Appendix B to this plan.

1.1.1 Public Engagement Strategy
Public engagement was a central focus of the 2023 planning process for the City of McFarland. To ensure the contents of this plan were aligned with the concerns and priorities of the community, a diverse group of stakeholders were invited to participate in the planning committee including city representatives, local agencies, local businesses, local citizens, and non-governmental organizations.

The public also participated in development of this HMP through an online survey to residents and through public review of the draft HMP. Community feedback played a key role in prioritizing future mitigation goals, actions, and implementation steps in this HMP. Specific efforts were made to ensure representation among non-English speaking community members by supplementing online outreach efforts (which mostly reached English speakers) with an in-person canvassing event at a local Hispanic foods store, where approximately half of survey respondents opted for Spanish translation.

Additional documentation of the public engagement strategy, as well as a full summary of survey results, are available in Appendix B to this plan.

1.2 What’s New
The City of McFarland has been making improvements toward reducing natural hazard risks to life and property since the local HMP was las updated in 2016. Completed mitigation actions from the 2016 plan are highlighted in Table 1-3. The City determined to cancel some due to reprioritization, lack of funding, or other listed reasons. Table 1-2 lists those cancelled mitigation actions along with an explanation for why.

Other mitigation actions are pending or ongoing and are included in Table 1-26.

Back-Up Generation for McFarland Community Center
During extreme heat events, surges in consumer power demand can lead to rolling blackouts, compromising delivery of essential services and posing major health risks to residents left without access to air conditioning or medical devices requiring electricity. Thanks to HMGP grant funding, in 2017 the City of McFarland was able to purchase and install backup generation at its designated Cooling Center, located at the McFarland Community Center. This fulfilled one of the City’s prioritized mitigation actions from its 2016 HMP.

Community Garden Ribbon Cutting
In partnership with the McFarland Recreation &
Parks District and Caltrans' Clean California Local
Grant Program, the City of McFarland cut the ribbon
on a new Community Garden and Trail in June 2023.

Located on the east side of the City along Industrial
Street, the Community Garden provides additional
benefits to extreme heat mitigation by increasing
the cover of natural surfaces and vegetation.

Additional resilience benefits of the garden might
include access to fresh produce as well as future
opportunities for educational programs with a
natural hazard nexus.

City of McFarland Urban Forest Plan
In partnership with the Department of City and Regional Planning at the California Polytechnic State University, San Luis Obispo, an Urban Forest Plan was prepared for the City of McFarland in 2020 with the intention of serving as a guiding document for future development pertaining to the urban forest. It contains principles and suggestions for tree selection, location and maintenance; as well as an implementation strategy tailored to the needs and capabilities of the community. The Urban Forest Plan paves the way for future extreme heat mitigation actions by the City, which are outlined in the mitigation strategy portion of this Annex.

Comprehensive General Plan Update
Beginning in the fall of 2019, the McFarland City Planning Department began the process of comprehensively updating all elements to the city’s General Plan through an extensive public outreach effort to solicit input from citizens, elected officials, and city staff. Many thematic elements of the General Plan include programs and policies with a mitigation benefit or explicit mention of natural hazards. The mitigation strategy of this HMP Annex was designed to ensure consistency across all thematic elements of the 2021 McFarland General Plan.

1.3 Risk Assessment
The intent of this section is to profile the City of McFarland’s hazards and assess the City’s vulnerabilities, as distinct from those profiled in Volume 1 in the context of the County-wide planning area. The hazard profiles in Volume 1 discuss overall impacts to the planning area and describe the respective hazard problem description, extent, magnitude/severity, previous occurrences of hazard events, and the likelihood of future occurrences. For more information on Risk Assessment Methodologies, see Vol. 1 and Appendix A.

1.3.1 Hazard Identification and Screening
Per FEMA guidance, the first step in developing the risk assessment is to identify hazards. Hazard selection is a twofold process. First, the Planning Committee considered and screened a broad set of hazards profiled in local, regional, and state-wide hazard planning documents. A crosswalk of documents reviewed and the results of screening the relevant hazards are outlined in Section 1.3.1.1 below. Second, the HMPC reviewed historical hazard events which have affected the City of McFarland to inform the hazard prioritization process, as outlined in Section 0.

1.3.1.1 Determining the “Universe” of Hazards
The Planning Committee reviewed previously prepared hazard mitigation plans by the City of McFarland as well as the plans of regional and state entities to determine the “universe” of natural hazards with the potential to affect the city and surrounding region. Table 1-4 provides a crosswalk of hazards identified in the City’s 2016 local HMP and General Plan Safety Element, the 2020 Kern County Multi-Jurisdictional HMP, and the 2018 California State HMP. Through this document review process, a list of 16 different hazards was identified for consideration. The crosswalk provided a framework for the HMP Planning Committee to evaluate which hazards posed enough relevance to the city to warrant prioritization in this Plan. For example, wildfire was considered to have no relevance to McFarland, whereas flooding was profiled in every planning document.

Some hazards which received prioritization in the 2020 Kern County MJHMP effort and are detailed in Volume 1 of this plan – specifically, wildfire and dam failure – do not have relevance to the City of McFarland and were omitted from further discussion in the Risk Assessment portion of his Annex.

1.3.1.2 Past Major Hazard Events
An important consideration in identifying and prioritizing hazards is past major hazard events, especially those which have triggered federal or state disaster declarations. The Planning Committee reviewed and considered past major hazard events in the City of McFarland as part of the hazard screening and identification process.

Most available information on major past hazard events comes from federal or state disaster declarations.

A disaster declaration may be granted when the severity or magnitude of an event surpasses the abilities of a local government to respond and recover. Additional federal and state disaster funding is generally available in response to a disaster declaration. State funding assistance is provided when a local government’s capacity to respond to a disaster is exceeded. Should the disaster be so severe that both the local and state governments’ capacities are exceeded, a federal emergency or disaster declaration may be issued, allowing for the provision of federal assistance.

Kern County has been affected by 33 federal disaster declarations1 since 1980, some of which were statewide. Table 1-5 shows these events excluding wildfire, which occurs within Kern County but does not directly impact the City of McFarland and was not selected as a prioritized hazard in this plan. Extreme weather and flooding events are most likely to occur in the winter months, with 25 of the 54 federally declared disasters occurring in January and February since 1953 in California.

Hazard events occurring outside city boundaries may nevertheless affect the community, either directly or indirectly. For example, dam failures or wildfires may occur outside the City of McFarland, but either hazard event could affect watersheds that drain into the city, resulting in flooding or longer-term watershed health impacts. Local power supply also could be interrupted due to extraterritorial hazard occurrences. These hazards are discussed in Volume 1 of this plan and secondar impacts can be presumed to apply to the City of McFarland.

1.3.2 Hazard Risk Ranking
The Planning Committee for the City of McFarland used the same hazard prioritization process as the Kern County Planning Committee. This process, described in detail in Section 4.3.1 of Vol. 1, considers both the probability of occurrence of each hazard, as well as the severity of potential impacts to the planning area. displays the results of the hazard risk ranking exercise along the two-dimensional axes of probability and impact.

All hazards have been profiled in Vol. 1 of this document; the Extreme Heat hazard is included within the Severe Weather Hazard profile for Vol. 1, but was called out as a separate hazard for the City of McFarland Annex due to the severe vulnerability specific to the local population. The purpose of this Annex is to provide additional context and information specific to the City of McFarland’s for each hazard. Vol. 1 contains more general information regarding each hazard’s description, extent, severity, history of occurrence and impacts.

1.3.3 Community Profile
The community profile for the City of McFarland sets the stage for the vulnerability assessment.

Knowledge of local geography, demographic characteristics, and economic conditions can help more effectively direct mitigation strategies and actions toward key populations and areas. The Planning Committee reviewed geographic and demographic data as part of the risk prioritization and assessment process.

Figure 1-3: Geographic Overview

1.3.3.1 Geography
The City of McFarland is situated within the San Joaquin Valley, in the northern portion of Kern County.

McFarland is surrounded by farmland in unincorporated Kern County. The city is approximately 20 miles north of Bakersfield and 3 miles south of Delano. State Route 99 (SR-99) runs north-south through the city.

In 2022, the City more than doubled the total land area within its borders by annexing over 2,100 acres of unincorporated farmland to the south of the previous city limits, on the eastern and western sides of SRPage 116 of 222 Kern Multi-Jurisdiction 2020 MJHMP Update

COUNTY OF KERN
1-11
99 as well as to the west of Garzoli Avenue in the northwest corner of the city, bringing total area to approximately 6 square miles. (See Figure 1-3) Throughout this document, hazard vulnerability will be discussed in the context of future development including possible land use changes to annexed land areas.

To the east of McFarland are the Sierra Nevada Foothills, and to the west the Temblor Mountain Range.

The topography in McFarland typical of the southern San Joaquin Valley. The city lies in a very flat portion of the Tulare-Buena Vista Basin, with a gradual south to north grade, decreasing in elevation toward the northwest. Elevations within the City range from approximately 360 feet above sea level at the southeast corner to approximately 340 feet at the northwest corner.

1.3.3.2 Transportation Routes
State Route 99 (SR-99) runs north-south through the City with access to McFarland at Perkins Avenue, Sherwood Avenue, and Elmo Highway. Although a major transportation corridor through the Central Valley, SR-99 serves as a barrier to the local flow pattern within McFarland and separates the eastern and western portions of the city. The City operates a Dial-a Ride bus service in compliance with FTA Title VI requirements. McFarland is served by the Kern Regional Transit Authority 110 line which runs N-S from Bakersfield to Delano, also stopping in the cities of Wasco and Shafter.

1.3.3.3 Climate
McFarland experiences a moderate climate, with seasonal highs in the low-80’s and lows in the high 40’s.

On average, the warmest month is July, and the coolest month is January. (Figure 1-4) Annual precipitation totals around 7.5 inches, arriving primarily during the months of October – April. Thirty-year climate normals for the nearest National Weather Service (NWS) meteorological station, located in the neighboring city of Delano, are shown in Figure 1-4.

1.3.3.4 Demographics & Vulnerable Populations
This section explores the various demographic and economic characteristics of the City of McFarland to inform future hazard mitigation planning efforts. Natural disasters are social phenomena as well as physical and meteorological events, and the City of McFarland’s demographic composition determines how hazard vulnerability is distributed throughout the community, especially for groups with who face greater obstacles to disaster preparedness, response, and recovery. Understanding the unique social and economic fabric of an area can also help to identify the potential social costs of damage to infrastructure such as housing, industry, public facilities, essential services, and transportation.

The demographics information contained herein for the City of McFarland and surrounding areas has been post-processed based on the U.S. Census Bureau’s American Community Survey (ACS) five-year estimate period from 2016-2021 and will not necessarily match the figures presented in other regional demographic studies or plans. Inherently, the margin of error for this data can be high, especially in more rural areas and for data collected at the block group level, which is made publicly available as spatial data files but not as a part of the Census Bureau’s tabular reporting. The figures referenced in this section are not intended to inform decision-making or administrative activities, but merely to suggest larger trends in the region with relevance to hazard mitigation planning efforts.

The City of McFarland’s estimated population in 2021 was 14,085, according to the U.S. ACS 5-year estimates from 2016-2021, which is 1.6% of the total population of Kern County. A more detailed time series of annual population change since 2008 is shown in the figure below, which is sourced from the U.S.

Census Population Estimates Program (PEP). Population grew significantly from 2012 to 2019 in McFarland, by about 3,000 individuals, before an apparent decline of approximately 1,500 in 2020. Caution should be used when interpreting PEP estimates from 2020 due to errors introduced in the Census’ methodology associated with the COVID-19 pandemic.

1.3.3.4.1 Introduction to Vulnerable Populations
Exploring local demographic data may help to identify groups and geographic areas with specific vulnerabilities to natural hazard events. Certain populations face greater risks following a hazard event due to age, economic status and mobility, physical or mental disability, geographic location, or a combination of factors. Vulnerability in the face of a hazard event is not a fixed characteristic; the same individual may be at greater risk from some hazards but not others. For example, a household without a car may face increased risks during a wildfire or flood event where rapid evacuation is necessary, but the same household may be adequately prepared for an earthquake. Some individuals can reduce their vulnerability through mitigation, whereas others face more fixed vulnerability to disasters. This is especially true for individuals who rely on caregiving networks to navigate daily life, such as children, the elderly, and persons with disabilities. (National Center for Disaster Preparedness, 2020) Inequality in the geographic distribution of environmental risk burden also means that lower-income and marginalized communities are more likely to live in hazard-prone neighborhoods with fewer mitigation resources.

In the context of all-hazards preparedness and response planning, at-risk individuals (often used interchangeably with vulnerable populations) are defined federally as “children, pregnant women, senior citizens, and other individuals who have access or functional needs in the event of a public health emergency.” (42 USC § 2802(b)(4)(B) (2019)) The following sections will explore data from the U.S. Census detailing population-level vulnerability for the City as a whole and across the geographic planning area.

Planning for vulnerable populations in hazard mitigation can help prioritize limited resources where they will be the most effective.

1.3.3.4.2 Income & Housing
Economic mobility is one of the most important predictors of natural hazard vulnerability. Low-income residents are more likely to occupy housing which is inadequately maintained or otherwise poorly built to withstand extreme events. For example, mobile homes are more susceptible to damage in earthquakes and floods than other types of residences, and older homes are less likely to contain air conditioning or cooling units to cope with high heat events. In urban areas, low-income residents are more likely to occupy homes and apartment buildings with unreinforced masonry, which is particularly susceptible to earthquake damage.

Renters are also more vulnerable to natural hazards, as they are less likely to have personal property insurance and the decision to make major structural improvements typically lies with the property owner.

Federal disaster recovery services can exacerbate inequalities between renters and homeowners; payout amounts are significantly higher for homeowners applying through FEMA’s Individual Assistance (IA) program. From 1999 to 2013, homeowners saw their wealth increase with local hazard damages, whereas renters’ wealth decreased. (Howell & Elliott, 2019)
The City of McFarland had an overall homeownership rate of 45% in 2021, with renter occupancy being the dominant form of tenure. (Table 1-6) The below figure also shows rental occupancy is highest in the residential areas of East McFarland.

Figure 1-6: Home Ownership Rate (% Total Housing Units) by Block Group Source: 2016-2021 American Community Survey 5-Year Estimates Low-income households and communities face disproportionate financial burdens from the costs associated with disaster preparedness, response, and recovery. Disasters create unexpected expenses which may serve as “tipping points” for families and individuals living on the edge of poverty or homelessness. Those who lack access to transportation may be unable to evacuate ahead of an emergency, and recovery costs may be higher for a household without the resources to conduct hazard mitigation activities ahead of time. (Krause & Reeves, 2017) Renters and low-income residents are also less likely to purchase insurance, meaning that those with the most to lose during a hazard event are also the least prepared to deal with potential losses. Major hurricane events in recent history, such as Harvey, Irma, and Katrina, all demonstrate that low-income and historically marginalized communities face increased vulnerability to hazards and struggle the most to recover. (Id.) The median household income in McFarland in 2021 was $38,651, with nearly a third of its population living in poverty (calculated as a % of total population over 15). By comparison, median income and poverty rates for Kern County were $58,824 and 19.4%, respectively. (See Table 1-7). Highest poverty rates are observed in the Census block groups spanning the eastern and northern portions of the city, which mostly correlate with the primary residential areas. (See Figure 1-7, Figure 1-8)

1.3.3.4.3 Age
Age plays a significant role in vulnerability to natural hazards, as both seniors and children are dependent populations who rely on caregiver networks for support and protection. Seniors may have mobility challenges and increased health concerns, necessitating assistance during evacuations and recovery.

Similarly, children have limited ability to protect themselves and depend on caregivers to ensure their safety and well-being during emergencies. Age vulnerability is compounded by low-income status, highlighting the importance of targeted interventions to address the unique needs of these populations.

Approximately 15% of households in McFarland include at least one senior individual (over 65 years of age),

23.2% of whom experience poverty (see Table 1-8 below). Additionally, seniors over 65 living alone constitute 3.9 of total households in McFarland, or 131 households in total. Seniors living alone may have more difficulty evacuating during an emergency, especially for individuals with mobility challenges and those who lack internet access and/or internet literacy. Assisted-living facilities usually require extra notice and coordination to implement evacuation and are typically identified as “critical facilities” by emergency managers.

Children often depend on family and caregivers to navigate daily life. As such, their resilience during and after a natural disaster is only as strong as the networks of care upon which they rely. Approximately 60% of households include at least one minor under the age of 18, and 31% of whom represent single-caregiver households. (Table 1-8) Disasters may have profound and detrimental long-term effects on children, and care should be taken to minimize disruption to social networks and lifelines serving children and families following a disaster event.

1.3.3.4.4 Race & Ethnicity
Natural disasters compound racial disparities; non-white individuals and communities receive less recovery aid from FEMA than their white counterparts, even where the amount of damage is the same. (Howell & Elliott, 2019) (National Advisory Council, 2020) At the time of this plan’s publication, the recent COVID-19 pandemic is a glaring testament to racial disparities in disaster outcomes, with non-white persons facing morbidity rates from COVID-19 infections anywhere from 70% to 350% higher than white, non-Hispanic persons. (CDC, 2020)
These disparities are evidence of the complicated relationship between disaster recovery and overlapping social vulnerabilities including race, income, language, and health. Black and Hispanic residents are more likely to be low income and renters, conditions which create barriers to navigating FEMA’s IA programs.

COUNTY OF KERN

Communities with more non-white residents may have lower tax revenue and property values, which means less investment in mitigation and rebuilding efforts before and after an emergency. Finally, a legacy of residential segregation and discriminatory redlining policies can force marginalized groups into areas with greater environmental risk burden, including higher exposure to natural hazards and pollution and lower access to open space. (Los Angeles County Department of Public Health, 2018) McFarland has a much greater proportional Hispanic population than Kern County as a whole; as of 2021, over 90% of the population identifies as Hispanic. (Figure 1-9)

1.3.3.4.1 Language
Individuals with no or limited English-speaking ability may be unable to access up-to-date emergency information and have difficulty navigating recovery programs. This is particularly true for McFarland; approximately 49.1% of households in McFarland (2,636 in total) are Spanish-speaking, with 58.1% of those households (969 in total) speaking no or limited English. (Table 1-9) Local governments can take steps to increase equity in disaster preparedness and recovery outcomes, including timely translation of preparedness materials and emergency notifications and partnering with local community groups to target outreach to at-risk populations more effectively.

1.3.3.4.2 At-Risk Individuals with Access & Functional Needs Access and functional needs may interfere with the ability for an at-risk individual to access or receive medical care before, during, or after a disaster or emergency event. “Access and functional needs” (AFN) refers to a broad set of cross-cutting access-based or function-based needs, generally distinguished according to the following:
▪ Access-based needs require that resources are accessible to all individuals to maintain health, such as social services, accommodations, information, transportation, and medications. ▪ Function-based needs refer to restrictions or limitations an individual may have that requires assistance before, during, and after a disaster or public health emergency.

At-risk individuals may have additional needs that must be considered in planning for, responding to, and recovering from a disaster or emergency. An approach recommended by the U.S. Department of Health and Human Services (HHS) for integrating the access and functional needs of at-risk individuals is to consider elements based on the “CMIST” framework:
▪ C = Communication – Individuals with communication needs may have limitations that interfere with the receipt of and response to information, requiring information to be provided in an appropriate and accessible format. This can include individuals who are deaf or hard of hearing, have limited or no English proficiency, are blind or have low vision, or have cognitive or physiological disabilities.
▪ M = Maintaining Health – Individuals may require specific services, equipment, medications, or nutrition to reduce negative impacts of a disaster or emergency and maintain activities of daily living, such as breathing, eating, dressing, grooming, transferring, and toileting. ▪ I = Independence – Continuity of access to necessary assistive devices, such as wheelchairs, or other aids, like service animals, is crucial to maintaining independence for individuals who rely on these support tools to function autonomously.
▪ S = Support – Person-centered support may be necessary for individuals who have lost caregiver assistance, have cognitive or behavioral disabilities, or have past trauma experiences which compound the need for social and emotional support following an emergency event. ▪ T = Transportation – Individuals may lack access to personal transportation due to a variety of factors, including economic status, age, physical or mental disability, temporary condition or injury, or legal restriction. This requires coordination with mass transit and accessible transportation service providers to ensure access to support and necessary services. (HHS, 2020)
While most individuals with access and functional needs do not have acute medical conditions requiring the support of trained medical professionals, many will require additional assistance to maintain health and minimize preventable negative outcomes. These at-risk individuals may also require more time or personnel to assist during an evacuation. It is estimated that approximately 3.5% of the total population of McFarland lives with some form of a disability, as shown in Table 1-10.

Approximately 252 (7.4%) of households in the city have no access to a vehicle. (Table 1-10) While McFarland and Kern County as a whole are largely car-dependent, with less that 1% of the population reliant on public transit, lack of vehicle access indicates that some residents use other modes of transportation to get to work, especially carpooling. In the event of a disaster, families and individuals without personal transportation may face a limited ability to rapidly evacuate an impacted area and barriers to accessing medical or other essential services.

1.3.3.4.3 Social Vulnerability Index (SVI)
Finally, the U.S. Centers for Disease Control (CDC) attempts to quantify social vulnerability as it pertains to all-hazards mitigation planning through the creation of a composite index called the Social Vulnerability Index (SVI), which ranks Census Tracts on the basis of 16 different Census variables to identify at-risk populations. The four main themes the SVI uses to rank communities’ percentile distribution on the basis of social vulnerability to public health emergencies and natural hazard events include socioeconomic status, housing type/transportation, racial and ethnic minority status, and household characteristics.

Tracts in the top 10%, i.e., at the 90th percentile of SVI values for each state, are considered highest vulnerability. The City of McFarland contains one Census Tract designated as >90th percentile SVI ranking, as shown in Figure 1-10.

1.3.4 Population and Asset Inventory
Assessing vulnerabilities exposes the unique characteristics of individual hazards and identifies which areas and assets within the City of McFarland are vulnerable to specific hazard events. The vulnerability assessment considered unique local knowledge of hazards and impacts and a GIS overlaying method for estimating the total land area, parcels, population, and critical facilities exposed to hazards with a unique spatial footprint. Using these methods, participating jurisdictions estimated vulnerable populations, infrastructure, and potential losses from hazards.

The data developed for this plan does not include parcels, population, or critical facilities located in the recently annexed land area as of April 2022, which is mostly undeveloped agricultural land. Future development impacts in the context of McFarland’s annexation will be discussed extensively in Section

1.3.5. 1.3.4.1 Population Inventory
In order to develop hazard-specific vulnerability assessments, populations near natural hazard risks have been determined to understand the total “at risk” population. We can understand how geographically defined hazards may affect the City by analyzing the extent of the hazard in relation to the distribution of population. This Annex uses an area-weighted population model to determine exposure, based on block group level data from the 2015-2019 U.S. Census American Community Survey (ACS) 5-year estimates, and assumes a total population of 15,479 individuals.

Because the population exposure data is derived from ACS population estimates at the scale of census tract or smaller, population estimates aggregated up to the city level differ from ACS place-level population estimates and should not be used as official population counts. Nevertheless, local level ACS data can reveal patterns in the geographic distribution of hazard exposure and can provides a sense of the size of the problem, as measured by the approximated proportion of the total population (not definitive counts) exposed to a given hazard. The Community Profile for the City of McFarland discusses population trends and social vulnerability data in more detail. (See Section 1.3.3)

1.3.4.2 Critical Facilities Inventory
Critical facilities are defined as essential services which if damaged, would result in severe consequences to public health, safety, and welfare. As such, critical facilities are of special concern in prioritizing hazard mitigation resources. To enhance understanding of local hazard vulnerability and assets most at risk, the Planning Team sources a comprehensive inventory of critical facility points and lifelines based on data from the City of McFarland, Kern County and other publicly sourced information. Critical facility points include fire stations, schools, transportation, utilities, and government buildings; while lifelines include communications, power/gas/fuel lines, and transportation routes. Total count and miles for each CI type included in the exposure analysis are shown in Table 1-11, Table 1-12, and Figure 1-11.

1.3.4.3 Parcel Value Inventory
Parcel exposure refers to the total count and value of parcels within the City of McFarland exposed to a hazard with a specific hazard footprint. In the event of a disaster, the primary cost concern is generally the value of infrastructure or property improvements, rather than the value of the land itself. Parcel information for the City of McFarland, including both the assessed market value and content value derived from the Kern County Assessor’s dataset, are summarized in Table 1-13. Similar to the critical facilities and population inventories developed for this HMP, the parcel inventory does not include the 2022 annexation.

1.3.4.3.1 Hazus Structure and Content Value Inventory
FEMA’s loss estimation software, Hazus-MH 4.0, was used to analyze the City’s building risk to flood and earthquake hazards. A Hazus level II assessment was performed leveraging county-wide assessor’s data in lieu of default Hazus data. Hazus software operates on structure square footage, structure replacement, and content replacement costs to estimate potential losses specific to a modeled flood or earthquake scenario. Table 1-14 provides input value data for occupancy classes derived from assessor’s data to match FEMA modeling standards.

Table 1-14: City of McFarland Parcel-Based Hazus Input Values Residential Structure Type Parcel Count Improvement Value Content Value Proportion of Value

Data Source: Kern County, address points. The address point data used for this Hazus analysis exists in a many-to-one relationship to parcels. Address point values were assigned based on an equal distribution of the parcel value in which each address point is contained.

For parcels with no corresponding address point, a point was created. Note: Building values reflect fair market value as provided by the county on the parcel level. Content replacement costs are calculated based on the general occupancy classes (building type) provided by Kern County and translated to Hazus occupancy classes. Each HAZUS occupancy class prescribes a specific content cost multiplier used to calculate the content cost values shown above.

1.3.4.4 RAMP Application
The jurisdiction’s risk assessment was completed in part using the web based and interactive Risk Assessment Mapping Platform (RAMP), accessed via the project website at www.mitigatehazards.com.

RAMP allows interactive discovery of robust risk, vulnerability, and exposure data developed especially for Kern County. RAMP is a mapping platform built specifically for mitigation planning. The user interface displays County and jurisdictional facilities and buildings overlaid with natural hazards layers to bring interactivity and individual discovery to the GIS analysis performed for the MJHMP.

1.3.5 Past and Future Development

1.3.5.1 Development since Previous HMP
The City of McFarland is a general law city that crafts its own development regulations and is subject to State law. Future development is subject to compliance with state and local planning, zoning, subdivision, and architecture laws.

The City of McFarland’s General Plan (GP) establishes long-range development policies. The GP is designed to help the City address issues related to land use, circulation (traffic), housing, open space, conservation, noise, and safety. The Land Use portion of the plan helps guide the City in determining the location of future development(s), including annexation. These plans help to shape future development and dictate the City’s Sphere of Influence (SOI). One of the central functions in these planning documents is to decrease risk of impact from natural hazards.

The largest change in development to occur in McFarland since the last HMP is the annexation of over 2,100 acres of previously unincorporated farmland, nearly doubling the city’s total land area and incorporating new areas along the Highway 99 corridor. Approved by the Kern County Local Agency Formation Commission (LAFCO) in April 2022, these newly incorporated parcels remain in agricultural use, but represent a major opportunity for future development and funding of public services.

1.3.5.2 Future Development
McFarland is required to update building codes to meet the minimum standards to those required in the California Building Code, last updated in 2022. California Building Codes provide some of the safest construction standards in the world and are meant to reduce risk to occupants from high wind, seismic activity, landslides, flood, wildfire, and other natural hazards. In addition to California minimum develop standards, all jurisdictions belong to the NFIP, as such, all development must meet minimum flood protection standards set forth by FEMA. See Section 4.3.5 of Volume 1 for more information about past and future development in Kern County.

As the General Plan is updated and incorporates information from this HMP, City of McFarland staff are continually improving hazard information through these hazard mitigation plan updates. With this current update, improved online mapping about natural hazards available on RAMP will inform those responsible for future development to make better decisions where and how future development occurs.

The Planning Team reviewed McFarland’s general plan elements under the capability assessments undertaken for this hazard mitigation plan. (See Section 1.4.1) Deficiencies revealed by these reviews are identified as mitigation actions to decrease risks to move beyond past trends.

Page 130 of 222 ends

Kern Multi-Jurisdiction 2020 MJHMP Update

COUNTY OF KERN
1-25
The City’s municipal codes includes regulations to mitigate the impact of hazards on new and existing development, including floodplain management regulations and strict stormwater requirements for new development and subdivisions.

Should development occur within a hazard area, the municipal code should ensure impacts from a hazard event are mitigated and losses are minimal. If new development does occur in hazard areas, evacuation and emergency planning should take into consideration the anticipated local impacts of the hazard event, including potential interrupted services or the elimination of access.

The anticipated growth in the City resulting from the recent annexation will not cause significant change in vulnerability to the City for identified priority hazards, and is likely to bring a minimal benefit in the form of increased tax revenue to fund essential public services and infrastructure improvements.

1.3.6 Vulnerability to Specific Hazards
This section expands upon the vulnerability assessment of Section 4.5 of the base plan to include information specific to McFarland. For hazards with a unique spatial footprint, such as flood and earthquake, this section will include quantitative estimates of exposure to population, parcels, and critical facilities, as well as damage estimates from simulated hazard scenarios. Methodologies for calculating loss estimates are the same as those described in Section 3.4 of the base plan. Additional information specific to McFarland that is not captured in Section 4.5 of the County base plan, such as the local regulatory environment or hazard event history, will be included in this assessment. Most importantly, the mitigation strategy presented in this plan responds to locally specific concerns and provides prescriptions or actions to achieve the greatest reduction of vulnerability, which results in saved lives, reduced injuries, reduced property damage, and protection for the environment in the event of a natural hazard.

This Annex provides information for the following natural hazard threats:

Extreme heat was included as a sub-hazard of Severe Weather in Vol. 1 of this document but is discussed as a separate hazard here due to the severe vulnerability of McFarland’s population. Additionally, some hazards which have been profiled in the base plan for the Kern County MJHMP were determined not to have relevancy to McFarland and are therefore excluded from this section of the Annex. These include:
• Dam Failure – No dam inundation zones within the Planning Area. • Wildfire – Wildfires do not present a major risk locally; no wildfire severity zones located within the Planning Area. Secondary impacts related to air quality are addressed in other hazards. • Slope Failure – Slope failure hazard poses minimal risk to low-lying areas of Kern County with little topography such as McFarland.
• Soil Stability – Land subsidence related to overdraft is included as a sub-hazard to drought in this document.

1.3.6.1.1 Regulatory Environment
National Flood Insurance Program (NFIP)
Additional information and background regarding the NFIP are available in Vol. 1, Section 4.5.2.

The City of McFarland has participated in the NFIP since 1986 and is currently in good standing with the provisions of the NFIP. Compliance is monitored by FEMA regional staff and by the California Department of Water Resources under contract with FEMA. Maintaining compliance under the NFIP is an important component of flood risk reduction. See Table 1-15 for more information on the City’s policies and historic flood insurance claims.

* Note: N/D signifies no data.

See Volume 1, Section 4.5 for more information on the NFIP.

Participants in the NFIP must, at a minimum, regulate development in floodplain areas in accordance with NFIP criteria. Prior to issuing a permit to build in a floodplain, participating jurisdictions must meet the following three criteria:
▪ New buildings and those undergoing substantial improvements must, at a minimum, be elevated to protect against damage by the 100-YR flood;
▪ New floodplain development must not aggravate existing flood problems or increase damage to other properties and
▪ New floodplain development must exercise a “reasonable and prudent effort” to reduce adverse impacts on threatened salmonid species.

Structures permitted or built before December 31, 1974 are considered “pre-FIRM”. “Post-FIRM” structures, built 1975 or later, are less vulnerable to under NFIP-compliant building codes and floodplain.

Compliance is monitored by FEMA regional staff and CA Department of Water Resources under contract with FEMA. Maintaining NFIP compliance is an important component of flood risk reduction. All planning partners that participate in the NFIP have identified initiatives to maintain compliance and good standing.

City of McFarland Storm Drain Master Plan
Completed in 2015, the City of McFarland Storm Drain Master Plan (SDMP) provides comprehensive longrange planning for the implementation and development of drainage facility improvements in the City of McFarland. Only limited data from the previous Kern County Flood Insurance Study (FIS) was available at the time of publication; specifically, the last FIS for this area does not identify runoff volumes from the regional flooding hazard. Therefore, the SDMP gives more focus to local flooding volumes in prescribing storm drain improvements, for which more data is available. Overall, the SDMP finds that McFarland’s storm drain infrastructure is largely undersized for even 10-year local flooding events, not accounting for unknown regional flooding hazards; it also provides a prioritization framework for conducting system improvements following a downstream to upstream approach.

City of McFarland General Plan
The City of McFarland underwent a comprehensive update to the City’s General Plan from 2021-2022, including several thematic elements which provide programs and policies that reduce flood risk either directly or indirectly; including Safety, Circulation, Land Use, Public Utilities, and Environmental Justice.

Because future growth in McFarland is constrained in large part by the presence of floodplains and lack of existing storm drain infrastructures, development through 2040 necessarily accounts for flood risk in detail and flooding is considered throughout most of the thematic elements of the comprehensive General Plan.

City of McFarland Municipal Code
Chapter 15.12 of the City of McFarland General Plan contains specific provisions designed to promote public health, safety, and minimize losses due to flood conditions within hazard areas, specifically through the establishment of development permits for construction in SFHA’s, granting authority to the floodplain administrator, and establishing standards for construction to raise structures above base flood elevations.

1.3.6.1.2 Past Events
Historical floods in Kern County are discussed in detail in Vol. 1, Section 4.5.2. In the time between Vol. 1 adoption and the production of this Annex for the City of McFarland, winter atmospheric storm events in early 2023 caused widespread flooding throughout Kern County and areas of McFarland that warranted not only local evacuations, but also a federal disaster declaration. Flooding along SR-99 followed a southnorth pattern and prompted evacuation of many residential areas of the City. At the time of Annex publication, NFIP claims information had not changed relative to late 2022 prior to the flooding events
