CITY OF MODESTO

COUNCIL AGENDA REPORT
DATE OF MEETING:

July 12, 2022
Date: June 16, 2022
TO: Mayor and City Council
THROUGH: Joseph P. Lopez, City Manager
FROM: DeAnna Christensen, Director of Finance
SUBJECT: March and April 2022 Grant Application and Awards CONTACT: Maria Garnica, Accounting Manager, [email protected] 209-577-5249
DESCRIPTION:

Consider accepting an informational report on the March and April 2022 Grant Applications and Awards. (Funding Source: Not Applicable)
STRATEGIC PLAN ELEMENT:

This item supports the City of Modesto 2020-2025 Strategic Plan focus of Governance and Service Delivery under Goal H: Achieve Financial Sustainability.

BACKGROUND:

The Finance Department coordinated with California Consulting to update the Administrative Directive 7.2, “Grant Management.” The revised directive was updated on July 1, 2021 to streamline the grant management process and to establish better controls on local match requirements, including potential future costs which could be required as part of a grant agreement. Additionally, the Finance Department coordinated several training sessions to highlight key changes to the new directive.

This directive has eliminated the requirement to go to Council for the application and acceptance of grant awards if the amount of the grant is less than $1,000,000 and does not require any local match funding. The Director of Finance is authorized to approve grant applications and awards under $25,000 with no local funding requirements. The City Manager has the authority for approving grant applications and awards between $25,000 and under $1,000,000 with no local match funding requirements. Due to the need for quick turnaround on grant application and award acceptance required by the granting agencies, this directive allows for City departments to apply for more grants within the grant application periods and provide quick response to award acceptance deadlines.

The Finance Department will inform Council of all grant activity by preparing a bi-monthly informational report on both grant applications and awards. Finance Department has established #10..

CITY OF MODESTO

COUNCIL AGENDA REPORT
DATE OF MEETING:

July 12, 2022
Date: July 6, 2022
TO: Mayor and City Council
THROUGH: Joseph P. Lopez, City Manager
FROM: Alan Ernst, Fire Chief
SUBJECT: Interim Fire Chief Services for Salida Fire Protection District CONTACT: Alan Ernst, Fire Chief, [email protected], 209.572.9590 DESCRIPTION:

Consider authorizing the City Manager to negotiate and execute an Agreement with Salida Fire Protection District for temporary Fire Chief services during negotiations of a full fire protection services agreement. (Funding Source: General Fund)
STRATEGIC PLAN ELEMENT:

This report supports the Strategic Plan Core Commitment to: “Provide Greater Safer Neighborhoods” and “Provide Healthy Economy and Great Quality of Life.” BACKGROUND:

The City of Modesto and the Salida Fire Protection District are currently engaged in negotiations to have the City of Modesto provide full fire protection services to the area served by Salida through a service agreement. Due to a lack of staffing, Salida is in immediate need of a designated Fire Chief during the period of time of the agreement negotiation and approval processes.

DISCUSSION:

The Salida Fire Protection District has requested the City of Modesto’s assistance for temporary Fire Chief Services during the negotiations of a full fire protection services agreement. The City Manager would be authorized to execute a Memorandum of Understanding to provide administrative Fire Chief services for a temporary time frame in order to bridge the gap of time necessary to finalize negotiations. The term of the agreement shall become effective on the first date of the executed Memorandum of Understanding and shall continue for sixty (60) days or until an agreement is entered into by both parties for the provision of full fire protection services, whichever date is earlier. The City of Modesto will provide the following Fire Chief services to the Salida Fire Protection District:
 Fire services program planning and administration
 Assist with emergency and disaster management

 Fire administration management and leadership
FISCAL IMPACT:

Any costs incurred and attributed to the Services provided under this Agreement shall be included in the full Fire Protection Service Agreement that the City and Salida are negotiating. If an agreement for full fire protection services is not reached between the parties within ninety (90) days of the Effective Date of this Agreement, the Parties shall meet and confer regarding the compensation owed to City pursuant to the Fire Chief Services provided under this Agreement.

Similar agreements have been established to provide Chief and Administrative services to other adjacent communities that created fiscal and operational efficiencies in the Fire Services to all partners involved. Therefore, this agreement will positively impact the City’s General Fund through economies of scale.

COMMITTEE RECOMMENDATION:

This item was not reviewed at the Committee level in order to expedite the potential service agreement to provide uninterrupted fire protection services to the Salida Fire Protection District.

RECOMMENDED COUNCIL ACTION:

Staff Recommendations:

Resolution authorizing the City Manager to negotiate and execute an Agreement with Salida Fire Protection District for temporary Fire Chief services during negotiations of a full Fire Protection Services Agreement.

CITY OF MODESTO

COUNCIL AGENDA REPORT
DATE OF MEETING:

July 12, 2022
Date: June 21, 2022
TO: Mayor & City Council
THROUGH: Joseph P. Lopez, City Manager
FROM: Christina Alger, Director of Human Resources
SUBJECT: Amending the Position Allocation Plan
CONTACT: Christina Alger, Director of Human Resources
[email protected], 209-571-5126
DESCRIPTION:

Consider amending the Position Allocation Plan in four departments: Police, Human Resources, Finance, and Utilities. (Funding Source: Various Funds) STRATEGIC PLAN ELEMENT:

This item supports the 2020-2025 Strategic Plan’s Service and Delivery Goals & Strategies - Building a High-Performing Organization by Attracting and Retaining High Performance Employees.

BACKGROUND:

Personnel Rule 2.1 states, “The City Manager shall ascertain the duties and responsibilities of all positions in the City service, except those positions which are filled by appointees of the City Council and after appropriate consultation with employees and department heads, shall prepare a classification plan for such positions.” As business needs and market conditions change, there is a need to adjust certain positions to better meet these business needs or better conform to industry best practices. Positions may be adjusted or created through the City’s Classification Study policies and procedures. The City found it necessary to review several classifications.

Police Department
The Police Department is a rapidly changing environment due to evolving technology and regulatory changes. One such change is moving from Uniform Crime Reporting to California Incident Based Crime Reporting. As requirements change, the need for specific positions encompassing the competencies needed must also change. From time to time, there is a need to assess the workforce and make these necessary adjustments to ensure duties are aligned and work processes continue seamlessly.

Human Resources
The Human Resources Department handles all transactions within the organization relating to the Employee Lifecycle. This includes recruitment, hiring, and onboarding. The department has two Human Resource Analysts that oversee recruitment. These two positions split the organization and share the responsibility for City-wide recruitment. Many departments have experienced obstacles to hiring talent within this complex environment since the pandemic began. Attrition is high and we are experiencing a much higher number of recruitments needed to fill the vacant positions. This creates delays in the recruitment process and the need to add one more Human Resources Analyst. The Modesto Police Department has a more stringent hiring process and consumes about 80 percent of one HR Analyst currently.

Finance Department
A Position Inventory Questionnaire (PIQ) can be completed by an employee who wishes to have their position studied or by the department requesting a Single Class Audit. PIQ’s are typically requested when it is believed that a specific position has evolved over time and is performing duties above the current job class. This can happen with changes in business needs or practices.

A PIQ was submitted by the Finance Department for a current Financial Analyst II. Once received, the Human Resources Department assesses the job duties being performed by the incumbent to determine whether they are still within the current job class or if they fall within a different job class. The assessment determined that an adjustment is needed.

Utilities
The Utilities Department submitted a PIQ requesting that a Single Class Audit be performed on the position of Administrative Office Assistant III. The department requested that the position be reallocated to an Administrative Services Technician I/II based on business needs.

DISCUSSION:

Staff recommends position allocation additions and changes in four departments, Modesto Police Department (MPD), Human Resources, Utilities, and the Finance Department due to changes in business needs.

Police Department
After an assessment of the allocations within the Records and Property and Evidence Units, MPD has identified the changes below to improve efficiency and appropriately align the position allocations with the duties performed.

Due to the advancement in the City’s Records Management System, the recent mandatory change from Uniform Crime Reporting (UCR) to California Incident Based Crime Reporting (CIBRS/NIBRS) and other automation, the type of work within the Records Unit continues to change. The staffing required to process reports has decreased while the need for staffing with the ability to compile, analyze and submit data to various agencies has increased. The job specification for Police Technician is consistent with the skills required for these new and necessary duties.

The current allocation for Property and Evidence Technicians is four. The amount /type of evidence and property booked in our Property and Evidence facility has also changed with the advancement of technology. The time and staff required to process and transport biological #12..

City Council, July 12, 2022
Amending the Position Allocation Plan

Page 3 of 5 ends

evidence as well as the testing required for the National Integrated Ballistic Information Network (NIBIN), has created a significantly higher workload in the Unit. In addition, the need for the efficient disposition of property and evidence after cases have been adjudicated is vital in order to maintain the facility and ensure MPD has the space required for new items. In order to meet these demands an additional Property and Evidence Technician is required.

By reducing the number of Police Support Specialists from 29 to 25, MPD requests eliminating one Police Support Specialist, reallocating four Police Support Specialists to two Police Technicians specifically assigned to the Records Unit, one Property and Evidence Technician, and one Administrative Office Assistant III Confidential. These changes in current allocations will properly align the duties performed and allow the Support Unit to efficiently handle the changes that have come with technological advancement. The savings created by this shift will also allow funding to add a Human Resources Analyst II to the Human Resources Department as outlined in the next section.

Human Resources
The Police Department has been hard hit by the difficult recruiting environment coupled with the challenges within the career of Policing. All agencies are experiencing these concerns and the City is often competing for the same talent. The process to bring in new officers is complex and time-consuming. New officers may come in as recruits through the City’s Police Academy or as lateral officers from other agencies.

In order to effectively and efficiently recruit new officers, The City needs to dedicate resources to the effort. The Police Department has requested some position changes within their nonsworn workforce and created some savings to add a Human Resources Analyst to the Human Resources Department. This additional position will be dedicated to Police recruitment and will also allow the current Analysts to focus on other areas of the City.

Finance Department
The position evaluated oversees specific audits; has authority to make decisions and changes, and may report those to auditors; has the authority to make case by case decisions on exceptions outside of policy; calculates and determines cannabis tax; and writes staff reports, resolutions, supporting documents and agreements.

After conducting the classification audit, it has been determined that this position performs the full range of duties in the Financial Analyst series, handles a variety of complex duties, and has a scope of authority in line with a Financial Analyst III; therefore, the recommendation is to reallocate the Financial Analyst II in the Finance Department to a Financial Analyst III.

Utilities
The position of Administrative Office Assistant III within the area of Utilities that this position functions performs duties such as managing the work order management system, monitoring tampered and delinquent account activity, evaluating service activity history, and other account oversight functions. The position also acts as a lead and provides oversight of daily activities of the team and ensures compliance with related laws, codes, ordinances, and regulations. #12..

When compared to the current classification, it was quickly identified that the duties are higherlevel duties and responsibilities that are technical in nature and fall outside the current classification.

After conducting the classification audit, it has been determined that the duties and responsibilities provide technical administrative and program related duties and are in line with the Administrative Services Technician I/II classification; therefore, the recommendation is to reallocate the Administrative Office Assistant III in the Utilities Department to an Administrative Services Technician I/II.

FISCAL IMPACT:

Police Department
The fiscal impact of adjustments to the Police Department will result in a cost of $29,746 in the General Fund cost center 19420 as shown in the chart below. This additional cost will be absorbed in the Fiscal 2022/23 budget.

Human Resources
There will be no fiscal impact to the Human Resources Department. As shown in the chart above, the Police Department is funding the Human Resources Analyst II through savings from other position changes.

Finance Department
The reallocation of the position from Financial Analyst II to Financial Analyst III represents a 10% increase in base salary. The immediate fiscal impact will be 5%, based on the step placement of the incumbent. This is equivalent to $4,215 in the Water fund (Non-General Fund) cost center 12470 and will be absorbed within the current budget.

Utilities
The reallocation of the position from Administrative Office Assistant III to Administrative Services Technician I/II will result in a 17.5%-27.5% increase in base salary. Currently, this position is vacant, so the actual fiscal impact will depend on level and step placement of a new incumbent. This results in a maximum $16,516 in the water fund (Non-General Fund) cost center 45010 and will be absorbed within the current budget.

COMMITTEE RECOMMENDATION:

This agenda item was reviewed by Finance Committee on June 27, 2022 and was recommended for forwarding to the City Council for approval. #12..

COUNCIL AGENDA REPORT
DATE OF MEETING:

July 12, 2022
Date: June 3, 2022
TO: Mayor and City Council
THROUGH: Joseph P. Lopez, City Manager
FROM: Brandon Gillespie, Chief of Police
SUBJECT: Security Access System Migration Purchase Agreement Amendment CONTACT: Chris Adam, Lieutenant, [email protected], 209.572.9500 DESCRIPTION:

Consider amending the agreement with Johnson Controls, San Leandro, CA, for an updated security access system migration, increasing the not to exceed amount by $40,000 for additional parts and services that may be required through the life of the agreement for a new total amount not to exceed $255,884. (Funding Source: Supplemental Law Enforcement Services Fund - SLESF)
STRATEGIC PLAN ELEMENT:

This item supports the City of Modesto 2020-2025 Strategic Plan focus area of Governance and Service Delivery under Goal H: Achieve Financial Sustainability.

BACKGROUND:

The Modesto Police Department (MPD) encompasses one whole city block, bounded by G and F Streets and 10th and 11th Street. Due to the nature of police work and records maintained by the MPD, the campus is required to be secure. The security access controls system was put into service when the campus was built in 1999. The entire system works off an antiquated Disk Operating System (DOS) and often fails in inclement weather or in the event of a power outage.

These system failures result in doors locking and/or inadvertent closing or opening of security gates, which poses a security risk to the parking lot, city vehicles and the various buildings located on the campus.

On October 12, 2021, the City Council approved Resolution No. 2021-405 approving the Purchase Agreement for an updated security access system migration and agreement for three years of preventative maintenance and service with Johnson Controls, San Leandro CA, by utilizing the competitive bidding process with Sourcewell previously known as National Joint Powers Alliance (NJPA), for facility security equipment, systems, and services, with related equipment and supplies for a total amount not to exceed $215,884. #13..

City Council, July 12, 2022
Security Access System Migration Purchase Agreement Amendment

Page 2 of 2 ends

DISCUSSION:

Work on this project has commenced and it has become apparent additional parts and services are needed to complete the project. For example, initially the access system at the Property & Evidence facility was not included in the scope of work for this project; however, in the last month the system at that building has started to fail to the point that card readers (a way of tracking who enters the building and when) are not functioning and only keys are able to be utilized. As such, the MPD is seeking to increase the amount of this purchasing agreement by $40,000 to be able to accommodate additional parts and services that may be required through the life of the agreement and to properly finish this project.

FISCAL IMPACT:

Sufficient funds are budgeted in 2017-2018 Supplemental Law Enforcement Services Fund Project Number 101059.

The increased cost for the security access system migration/upgrade is estimated to be $218,472. The cost for three (3) years of preventative maintenance and service is estimated to remain at $37,412 which includes 24/7 on-site response, including holidays, for a total amount not to exceed $255,884.

COMMITTEE RECOMMENDATION:

This item was presented to the Finance Committee on June 27, 2022 and was recommended to forward to Council for approval.

RECOMMENDED COUNCIL ACTION:

Staff Recommendations:

Resolution amending the agreement with Johnson Controls, San Leandro, CA, for an updated security access system migration, increasing the not to exceed amount by $40,000 for additional parts and services that may be required through the life of the agreement for a new total amount not to exceed $255,884; and authorizing the Director of Finance, or designee, to execute the amendment.

SUBJECT: Acceptance of the California Violence Intervention and Prevention (CalVIP) Grant CONTACT: Jessica Smart, Public Safety Business Services Analyst, [email protected], 209.572.9518
DESCRIPTION:

Consider accepting the Board of State and Community Corrections California Violence Intervention and Prevention (CalVIP) Grant in the amount of $2,215,217 in grant funds with a 100% match requirement of $2,215,217, of which $514,592 is from the City of Modesto and $1,700,625 is from external subcontracts, for a total amount of $4,430,434. (Funding Source:

Police – Grants, General Fund)
STRATEGIC PLAN ELEMENT:

This item supports the City of Modesto 2020-2025 Strategic Plan focus area of Governance and Service Delivery under Goal H: Achieve Financial Sustainability.

BACKGROUND:

Formerly known as the California Gang Reduction, Intervention and Prevention (CalGRIP) Grant Program, the State Legislature established the California Violence Intervention and Prevention (CalVIP) Grant Program in Fiscal Year (FY) 2017-18. CalVIP encourages jurisdictions to develop local approaches that would meet the diverse needs of each community.

In 2019, the CalVIP grant was codified as the Break the Cycle of Violence Act (Chapter 735, Statutes of 2019) and established the authority and duties of the Board of State and Community Corrections (BSCC) to administer CalVIP, including the selection criteria for grants and reporting requirements to Legislature.

The grant requires a 100% match of grant funds requested and also requires at least a 50% pass through to at least one (1) non-governmental, community-based organizations and/or public agency that are not law enforcement whose primary mission is violence prevention or community safety.

Acceptance of the California Violence Intervention and Prevention (CalVIP) Grant

Page 2 of 4 ends

On February 1, 2022, the City Council approved the submission of a grant application for the CalVIP Grant Program by Resolution No. 2022-070. The Modesto Police Department was the lead agency on the grant application and it was submitted on February 9, 2022.

DISCUSSION:

The Modesto Police Department has been notified that it is being awarded $2,215,217 in grant funds from the BSCC CalVIP Grant Program. This means that there is also a match requirement of $2,215,217 for a total of $4,430,434 to be expended on the mission and goals of the grant.

The match requirement can be met via cash, in-kind or a combination of both. The performance period of the grant is July 1, 2022 through June 30, 2025 with an additional six (6) months (July 1, 2025 through December 31, 2025) included in the term of the contract for the purposes of finalizing and submitting a required local evaluation report and financial audit.

The Modesto Police Department partnered with the Parks, Recreation and Neighborhoods Department as well as Modesto City Schools, the Boys and Girls Club of Stanislaus County, Legacy Alliance Outreach and El Concilio California for the grant application. The purpose of the CalVIP Grant Program is to provide violence intervention services to a small segment of the population that has been identified as having the highest risk of perpetrating or being victimized by violence in the near future. In conjunction with the above identified partner agencies, the Modesto Police Department will work to support, expand and replicate evidence-based violence reduction initiatives. The partner agencies have dubbed this grant Project SUCCESS (Serving and Understanding our Community with Compassion and Education for Safer Streets) The “small segment of the populations that is identified as having the highest risk of perpetrating or being victimized by violence” as required by the CalVIP Grant Program was identified by Police Department staff after reviewing crime statistics. Based on the data, the area south of Kansas Avenue, north of the Tuolumne River, west of Highway 99 and east of S. Carpenter Road has been identified as the target area. In addition, grant activities will focus on two populations with the highest needs: pre/adolescent and incarcerated individuals being released.

Based on local crime data as well as research data from the Federal Bureau of Investigations (FBI) and the Population Reference Bureau, the following strategies were identified for this project: early intervention, focused deterrence, mentoring/credible messengers, mental health services, street outreach, and employment/job training. It is through these strategies that multicultural services will be implemented to prevent and redirect toward positive pathways.

Project SUCCESS will implement new and innovative interventions for the target area in an effort to prevent or minimize the influence of contributing delinquency factors within the target area. Modesto encompasses 44.8 square miles with a total population of 220,210 (CA Department of Finance report, 2020). The target area of Southwest Modesto encompasses 9.16 square miles with a total population of approximately 20,840. Adolescents will be referred into the program with an expectation of serving a minimum of 400 youth and 100 adults per year.

There are three main goals in Project SUCCESS: (1) to strengthen community-police relationships in the target area deemed to be at the highest risk of violence; (2) to provide opportunities for early intervention, education, family and mental health services in the target area of Southwest Modesto; (3) provide for a safer community by reducing crime and the fear of crime in the target area.

Full Project SUCCESS strategies and deliverables are outlined in the attached Proposal Narrative.

FISCAL IMPACT:

This match can be cash, in-kind, or a combination of both. Grantees are required to maintain documentation to support all match dollars that are claimed. There are no cash match dollars being proposed – all match dollars are in-kind in nature. In-kind matches are a non-cash outlay of materials or resources to support a percentage of the BSCC’s grant award activities. It may include non-cash outlay contributed by other public agencies and institutions, private organizations, and individuals. Examples include donated office supplies, equipment, professional services and volunteer time. Below is a breakdown of how grant funds and in-kind match funds will be distributed between all partner agencies:

City of Modesto – Police Department CalVIP Proposal Narrative – Project SUCCESS | Page 1 of 12

1. Description of Community Need
The Modesto Police Department (MPD) is requesting funding from the BSCC CalVIP grant program to implement Project SUCCESS (Serving and Understanding our Community with Compassion and Education for Safer Streets), a multi-faceted, evidence-based program to combat against the impact of violence on vulnerable communities in our city. Modesto is seeing a disproportionate amount of violent crime when compared to California averages. In 2019, the California average for aggravated assaults was 250 cases per 100,000 people, while Modesto had 578 aggravated assaults per 100,000 people (Federal Bureau of Investigation [FBI], 2019). This can be attributed to lower income levels, language barriers, lack of easily available resources/services, coupled with a higher number of group members residing in and frequenting high crime areas.

After careful review of Modesto’s violent crimes, identifying hot spots, demographics, and availability of services/resources, Southwest (SW) Modesto was identified as the micro-targeted population. SW Modesto is an impoverished community, with high numbers of violent crimes and multi-generational group members residing and frequenting there. It is also a multi-cultural community that can present additional language and service barriers.

In 2021, MPD took 76 aggravated assault reports (excluding domestic violence) within the target area. There was a large concentration (hot spot) of aggravated assaults within this area compared to the rest of the city. Crime rates are highest for individuals in their adolescence with the peak of violent crime offending occurring around 17 years of age (FBI, 2016). In 2021, MPD identified suspects in violent crimes as young as 13 with a peak at age 18. It is imperative to reach young adolescents and provide preventive measures prior to this peak in an effort to stop the onset of violent behavior. Multiple factors contribute to childhood offending, but three external factors shown to increase delinquency include poor parenting, negative school experiences, and delinquent peers (Agnew & Brezina, 2012, p 328). Within Stanislaus county, 62.1 per 1,000 children reported having experienced child abuse or neglect while the state average was 52.9 per 1,000 children (kidsdata.org). In addition, 10.2% of 7th graders in Stanislaus County reported feeling either "unsafe" or "very unsafe" at schools #14..

City of Modesto – Police Department CalVIP Proposal Narrative – Project SUCCESS | Page 2 of 12 (kidsdata.org). Lastly, 5.9 per 1,000 juveniles are arrested locally on a felony charge while the California rate is 3.9 per 1,000 juveniles (kidsdata.org).

Based on this data, the following strategies have been identified for this project:
early intervention, focused deterrence, mentoring/credible messengers, mental health services, street outreach, and employment/job training. It is through these strategies that multi-cultural services will be implemented to prevent and redirect toward positive pathways. Project SUCCESS will implement new and innovative interventions for the target area in an effort to prevent or minimize the influence of contributing delinquency factors within the target area. Modesto encompasses 44.8 square miles with a total population of 220,210 (CA. Department of Finance report, 2020). The targeted area of SW Modesto encompasses 9.16 square miles with a total population of about 20,840.

Adolescents will be referred into the program with an expectation of serving a minimum of 400 youth and 100 adults per year.

Within Modesto, there are 2,014 adults and 137 juveniles who are on active probation and 766 individuals currently on parole. According to the CDCR, 45% of those released are reconvicted within 3 years with 13% of those offenses being crimes against persons. It is important that services are provided to ensure that recidivism is diminished. Modesto desperately needs a reintegration program with a multiple prong approach to redirect those released from incarceration into healthy lifestyles, with the hope of reducing violent crimes in the Modesto community. Offenders often cross into other communities to commit crimes, therefore the target population for the reintegration component will include anyone returning to Modesto from incarceration.

2. Project Description
Project SUCCESS is a partnership between the City of Modesto – Police Department (MPD), the Parks, Recreation and Neighborhoods Department and three community-based organizations (CBO’s). It will focus on two populations with the highest needs: pre/adolescent and incarcerated individuals being released.

Pre/adolescent children were identified as needing services and programs to prevent violent behaviors by providing positive alternatives to violence (early intervention, mentoring/credible messengers, mental health services, street outreach). We recognize #14..
- 326 -
City of Modesto – Police Department CalVIP Proposal Narrative – Project SUCCESS | Page 3 of 12 children are often exposed to crimes and/or are victims themselves who have been traumatized. Project SUCCESS will put programs in place to provide for victim needs.

While it is very important that early interventions are put into place, it is also crucial to have resources in place to assist those who are reintegrating back into society after having committed a crime (focused deterrence, employment/job opportunities). We have a solid reintegration program being implemented by professionals and formerly incarcerated individuals who have successfully reintegrated after multiple years in prison. Partnerships for referrals from the local Parole and Probation Offices have been established and Project SUCCESS anticipates serving 80 parolees each year.

MPD, in partnership with El Concilio California (ECC), Legacy Alliance Outreach (LAO), Boys and Girls Club of Stanislaus County (BGCSC), Parks, Recreation and Neighborhoods Department (PRND), and Modesto City Schools (MCS) proposes a program to reduce violence within Modesto with a multi-faceted strategy. Project SUCCESS will strengthen the community-police relationships in the micro-targeted population deemed to be at the highest risk of violence (identified as SW Modesto), provide opportunities for early intervention, education, family and mental health services, providing for a safer community by reducing crime and the fear of crime in SW Modesto. These goals will be targeted for youth, the community, and those recently released after incarceration.

The first goal of Project SUCCESS is to strengthen community-police relationships in the target area deemed to be at the highest risk of violence. This will be accomplished through a focus on early interventions and strengthening relationships between law enforcement and the youth in SW Modesto. The primary vehicle to accomplishing this goal will be to implement a School Resource Officer (SRO) in coordination with MCS, who will work full-time at Mark Twain Middle School (which is within the target area) and assist in the surrounding five (5) elementary schools on a monthly basis. Introducing an SRO into a school can have a positive impact on students when the SRO takes an active, preventive role instead of a visual deterrence role.

Research has shown that schools with an SRO can have less assaults and weapons brought to school (College of Social Work; James & McCallion, 2013). Project SUCCESS strongly believes that building relationships and trust with law enforcement #14..
- 327 -
City of Modesto – Police Department CalVIP Proposal Narrative – Project SUCCESS | Page 4 of 12 at an early age, inclusive of families, will be key in lowering the propensity for negative behavior leading up to criminal activity. The SRO will not be in place as a disciplinary figure at the school, but as a positive role model who will implement ongoing in-class and one-on-one programming with the students to create positive interactions.

Additionally, the SRO will develop and implement a Junior Cadet Program for students in grades 5-8, allowing students to see career opportunities in public safety, learn valuable skills and build self-confidence. The Junior Cadet Program will include physical training, fingerprint work, classroom teaching, demonstrations by specialized units, tours and visits to the MPD. This program will expose children and their families to public safety in a positive and inviting manner. In addition to the SRO and Junior Cadet program there will be several mobile recreation opportunities presented that work to create positive social interactions between youth, their families and public safety in an informal and safe environment. Mobile recreation activities bring equipment and supplies where they may be lacking (SW Modesto) and create safe environments for healthy physical activity, good sportsmanship and well-being. These activities will include Park Play Pop Up events in coordination with PRND which provide for Social and Emotional Learning (SEL)-based themes provided with equitable access and by trained staff to provide positive youth development. Family Movie Nights in the Park where families can come together in target area parks to create memories watching some classic movie favorites and a Leisure Buck Scholarship Program which provides funding for qualifying families in the target area to go toward recreation programming.

The second goal of Project SUCCESS is to provide opportunities for early intervention, education, family and mental health services in the target area of SW Modesto. These preventative measures will establish positive pathways for youth in the target area by increasing after school programs, activities, tutoring, and other proven programs effective in improving grades, increasing self-esteem and providing positive alternatives to youth residing in the target area. This objective will be accomplished in a few ways, the first of which is increasing the knowledge of social services agencies, schools, community groups and leaders on group member issues through a series of 40 presentations provided by the BGCSC in the southwest area of Modesto. #14..
- 328 -
City of Modesto – Police Department CalVIP Proposal Narrative – Project SUCCESS | Page 5 of 12 BGCSC will then implement a comprehensive program aimed at improving grades, increasing self-esteem, and providing positive alternatives for youth residing in the target area. These programs will take place in a new building BGCSC recently acquired, which is located in the target area. Participants will be referred from schools, law enforcement, marketing, and targeted outreach. Youth attendance will be tracked via proxy cards and software with their measurements involving tracking grades, surveys, grade-level advancement, graduation rates, etc. BGCSC requires a parent or assigns a mentor involved in the students’ lives to participate in the program, resulting in thousands of volunteer hours contributed by parents. Boys & Girls Clubs of America, in collaboration with Pennsylvania State University, developed Street SMART to keep youth engaged in risk-prevention activities. It is designed to encourage youth to resist the culture of social cruelty, to stand against bullying, and reject gang violence. The program is based on the understanding that helping youth avoid harm is about more than teaching youth to say “no” to peers, standing up to bullying and avoiding gangs.

Young people must learn to be aware of their own hurtful or controlling behaviors and practice positive ways of resolving differences.

Access to mental health services and other interventions will be another objective of this goal. Project SUCCESS recognizes ongoing diverse outreach strategies are critical to the success of any program. First, to address the unique challenges and barriers of the target area, ECC will utilize a series of targeted outreach strategies and tactics designed to educate, motivate, and encourage all eligible target populations and communities to take advantage of Project SUCCESS programs. In order to provide culturally appropriate messaging saturation, leverage resources, identify gaps, and ensure coordination across the target area and additional stakeholders, ECC will employ a proven collaborative framework across its outreach platform. Strategies include: 1: leveraging relationships and community resources, 2: collaboration with faith-based organizations and networks to support program outreach, 3: leverage existing campaigns and activities to reach the target community to promote Project SUCCESS education and information, 4: develop culturally responsive resource toolkits, 5: use civic engagement outreach tools, 6: develop a communications and media strategy designed to target hard-to-reach populations, 7: identify trusted community messengers as Project SUCCESS Ambassadors. ECC has an integrated and coordinated #14..
- 329 -
City of Modesto – Police Department CalVIP Proposal Narrative – Project SUCCESS | Page 6 of 12 approach to working with partners and grassroots organizations to address gaps and avoid duplication in reaching low-income, at-risk, hard-to-reach communities while allowing for appropriate messaging saturation.

The second objective for the success of this goal is the provision of mental health services and programs. ECC utilizes Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, Person-Centered Therapy, Narrative Therapy, and Brief Solution Focused Therapy in its multi-faceted mental health service program. ECC will implement multiple outreach programs focusing on prevention, education, and intervention. In addition, stigma-reducing presentations will be made to the community using ECC’s Every Mind Matters campaign. ECC will host Youth Cafés that focus on mental health topics covering the trauma related to living in and with violence from ages 12 to 21 years. Lastly, ECC will offer its Youth@Work program, which is an 8-week workforce/job readiness program, utilizing ECC’s proprietary Ceilings Unlimited Job Readiness curriculum, including, but not limited to, technological literacy, Microsoft Office instruction, job applications, resumes, interview skills, job search skills, networking, life skills, and preparing an individual to attain and retain employment for those 16-21 years of age. The program also offers one-on-one case management support. At the end of the program, ECC hosts a job fair with over 25 engaged local business ready to hire applicants. These jobs are for all sectors of employment and offer living wages. Follow up indicates that over 60% of the Ceilings Unlimited clients hired through the job fairs are still working three months later.

The third and final goal of Project SUCCESS is to provide for a safer community by reducing crime and the fear of crime in the target area. The promotion of positive interactions with law enforcement and community members is a primary mission for Project SUCCESS. For this particular goal, the first objective is establishing professional relationships and enhancing communication, which are key. One way to do that is to have specific officers who routinely work in the target area with an engagement-first mindset. Officers from MPD’s Crime Reduction Team and the Street Gang Unit will spend 50 hours per month in the target area to engage the community and provide proactive enforcement when needed. Engagement will take many forms from presence in the target area, communicating with established trusted messengers, as well as #14..
- 330 -
City of Modesto – Police Department CalVIP Proposal Narrative – Project SUCCESS | Page 7 of 12 anyone residing in the target area, to participating in the recreation events and activities outlined in goal number one. These same officers will also assist the SRO with the programs and curriculum provided to the students participating in activities, such as the Junior Cadet Program and the BGCSC after school programs. These efforts will provide a safe space for youth in the target area to build a positive and proactive relationship with the officers serving their community which, in turn, builds trust. Additionally, these officers will be involved in providing presentations to the community on topics such as group member violence, how to stay safe, and how to report criminal activity to the police. Additionally, extra patrols will be provided by these officers to the target area when there is a violent crime in that area, when data shows an increase in crime, or at the request of the community. It is common for people to live in fear after a violent crime has occurred in their community; having known officers will be present after a violent crime has occurred can help the community feel safe and reduce the likelihood of retaliation crimes. The goal is for community members and police officers to have already established a relationship prior to this and ensure that the community is confident that the police will provide the services they need/are requesting. This further assists in building trust and police-community relations as community members will have established relationships with specific officers and therefore have a direct line of communication when reporting suspicious activity.

The second objective for this goal is to provide parole/probation reintegration services to prepare formerly incarcerated men, women and juveniles to reenter the community.

LAO will implement a reintegration program, which will fill a much-needed gap in the Modesto community. LAO recently purchased a home for this type of program and will provide housing, transportation, cultural relations workshops, job training, family reunification and more. LAO already has established a great working relationship with the Stanislaus County Parole Office and will coordinate the Incarcerated Community Reintegration Program (ICRP) as a 12-week curriculum designed to prepare formerly incarcerated men, women, and juveniles to reenter and reintegrate into society as prosocial community members. This will be accomplished by helping returning community members with rides and warm hand-offs from prison to Modesto; housing referrals and short-term housing for some participants, social skills, employment, family #14..

City of Modesto – Police Department CalVIP Proposal Narrative – Project SUCCESS | Page 8 of 12 reunification, educational advancement, mental health treatment, substance abuse treatment, computer literacy training and self-care. This program will awaken innate empathy for community members, trigger accountability, and help individuals learn to navigate the barriers that may have hindered them in the past, manage and remove stressors of life that cause relapse into criminal behavior and violent patterns by helping navigate life positively in the community. LAO helps stabilize social networks, establishing contacts and connections to resources for employment, healthcare, mental health treatment and family reunification. LAO will refer qualified individuals for applicable services provided by ECC. LAO also partners with Project Rebound, which is a program out of California State University, Stanislaus. This program offers special services and a supportive environment to formerly incarcerated individuals pursuing higher education upon release.

3. Organizational Capacity and Coordination
To implement Project SUCCESS, the City of Modesto – Police Department proposes the following outline of the role and organizational capacity of each involved entity:

City of Modesto – Police Department (MPD):

As the lead agency, the MPD will provide overall programmatic, financial and evaluation oversight. MPD operates under the direction of the Police Chief, Brandon Gillespie, and has the proven success to oversee large projects, including Federal and State grants. Over the last ten (10) years, MPD has received and managed millions of dollars in federal and state grant funds including the successful management of five (5) BSCC grants. A Lieutenant with prior grant management experience and 22 years in law enforcement who serves as the Assistant Division Commander of the Investigations Division, will provide general operational oversight for the School Resource Officer/Junior Cadet Program, community outreach activities and events and the proactive engagement/presence of our Crime Reduction Team and Street Gang Unit.

The department’s Senior Crime Analyst and an additional Crime Analyst will take lead on overall coordination of grant deliverables and project evaluation in close coordination with the to-be selected project evaluator and an Administrative Office Assistant III who will provide support for collection and retention of data from all partner agencies as required for the project evaluation. An Administrative Analyst II and the Public Safety #14..
- 332 -
City of Modesto – Police Department CalVIP Proposal Narrative – Project SUCCESS | Page 9 of 12 Business Services Analyst will oversee the financial reporting and documentation for all grants including Project SUCCESS, if awarded. MPD will assign a School Resource Officer (SRO) to Mark Twain Jr. High as a role model vs. disciplinarian and the individual will be selected based on experience with youth/youth programming, ability, communication skills, etc. The Officers and Sergeants from the Crime Reduction Team (CRT) and Street Gang Unit (SGU). The Officers will be selected with the needs of Cultural Diversity Severity and Language Barriers in mind.

City of Modesto – Parks, Recreation and Neighborhoods Department (PRN):

PRN will host numerous activities complimenting the SRO and CBO activities but not duplicating them. PRN has long been established in our neighborhood parks; however, with budget reductions their reach has been limited in recent years. Through Project SUCCESS, PRN is able to provide a more focused, integrative approach to ensure services are offered and accepted in the target area in coordination with all affiliated partners. PRN reaches hundreds of thousands of youth (and adults) annually through its wide array of recreation offerings. The basis for all PRN programming is promote literacy and social-emotional learning to equip youth with the ability to use the appropriate tools and skills to successfully navigate current and future challenges and opportunities. The Lead Recreation Coordinator for Project SUCCESS has been working with youth for 33+ years, targeting at-risk youth.

Boys and Girls Club of Stanislaus County (BGCSC):

For over 100 years, Boys & Girls Clubs of America (BGCA) has been involved in youth development, working with youth from disadvantaged economic, social and family circumstances. In 2013, Boys & Girls Club Stanislaus County (BGCSC) began implementing programs in the City of Modesto. Since inception, with the assistance of various grant funding and local donors, they continue to strategically add schools and locations to reach under/unserved and disparate communities in Stanislaus County.

BGCSC is well-equipped to serve in this capacity as it is an expansion of the work it has been providing Stanislaus County for nine (9) years.

El Concilio California (ECC):

ECC has provided services to families and individuals within the City of Modesto for over 20 years, providing critical services and programs to the marginalized, #14..
- 333 -
City of Modesto – Police Department CalVIP Proposal Narrative – Project SUCCESS | Page 10 of 12 economically-segregated, under/unserved, at-risk populations and diverse communities of color. Staffing consists of Therapists, Mental Health Outreach Workers, Substance Abuse Counselors, Peer Partners and more. Services consist of an integrated approach with Cognitive Behavioral Therapy; Collective Efficacy; Employment and Job Training; Focused Deterrence; Intensive Case Management; Mental Health Services; Mentoring/Credible Messengers; Street Outreach.

ECC operates under a Board and has a vast number of instructors and support staff, influencers, stakeholders and natural partnerships with like-minded agencies and organizations as part of a Community Based System and Continuum of Care and Service. ECC clients are acquired via referrals from hospitals, schools, law enforcement, their Civic Engagement Team, marketing, social media, job fairs, and more. ECC identifies successful participants and provides facilitator and leadership training for them. ECC is well-equipped to provide these new services in the target area.

Legacy Alliance Outreach (LAO):

LAO combines education and experience, from those formerly incarcerated and some never incarcerated, along with licensed clinicians and educators to implement a much needed, comprehensive reintegration program to the City of Modesto. One leader, Michael Baldwin spent 26 years in prison. During his last 18 years of incarceration, he led Restorative Justice Programs to over 10,000 inmates at 3 different locations. LAO has established working partners with Stanislaus County Parole and Probation for referrals. He is a paralegal with an A.A. degree and founded Criminal and Gang Members Anonymous (CGA). LAO closed escrow this month on a home in Modesto to house individuals specific to this program. LAO works closely with local educators and programs, including Project Rebound at CSU Stanislaus to enroll formerly incarcerated members into college. Having those who have been incarcerated and reintegrated successfully align with licensed professionals ensures a successful reintegration program. LAO has in-house partners in place to track all grant activities and budget management of the grant and in-kind funding.

4. Project Evaluation and Monitoring
#14..
- 334 -
City of Modesto – Police Department CalVIP Proposal Narrative – Project SUCCESS | Page 11 of 12 Once awarded the CalVIP grant, we will seek bids from research companies to complete a formal, local evaluation plan for Project SUCCESS. Below are the current Goals and Outcomes we will evaluate for program success.

Program Goals:
 Decrease violent crime in target area and target populations  Improve police-community relationship in target area
 Reduce the fear of crime in target area
 Increase number of youth provided with alternatives to group membership  Increase number of youths educated to resist alcohol/drugs/delinquent peers  Improve mental and emotional health of youth
 Increase youth role models/mentors to help peers resist negative peer pressure  Increase number of youth peer groups with reinforcement for healthy choices  Improve attitude toward learning, improved behavior and grades in schools  Increase the number of youth graduating from high school  Decrease the amount of recidivism in prior incarcerated individuals Program Objectives and Outcome Measures:
 SRO will be implemented in Mark Twain Middle School
 Junior Cadet Program will be developed and implemented  Reach 800 youth annually through hosted community events and programs  Provide Brief Intervention Counseling, Outreach and Engagement  Min. of 60 unduplicated Youth/Transitional Aged Youth services, Year 2 & 3.  Bimonthly Youth Cafes
 Establish Alternatives to Violence (AVP) workshops
 Establish annual 8-12-week parenting courses
 76-140 youth annually in the Youth @ Work Program
 50 hours monthly of increased public contact and patrols in target area  40 presentations about social services agencies, schools, community groups and leaders on group membership (gang) issues.
 4 monthly presentations on mental health services
 80-100 individuals annually going through the reintegration program #14..
- 335 -
City of Modesto – Police Department CalVIP Proposal Narrative – Project SUCCESS | Page 12 of 12  Percentage of violent crime will decrease in target area  Percentage of positive police-community interactions will increase in target area  Percentage of mental health incidents will decrease at Mark Twain Middle School  Percentage of reoffending by prior incarcerated individuals will decrease  Percentage of the community feeling safer will increase in target area  Percentage of juvenile offender violent crime will decrease in target area All data and survey information in the measured outcomes will be provided to the consultant contracted to complete a local evaluation report for all grant components.

MPD expects to increase services focusing on the target area and target populations to ensure decrease in violent behavior and criminal offending.

Each individual program has a detailed plan of tracking its participants. The tracking process will include the participants name, age, school, demographic information, school discipline records, and criminal history. It will also include the total number of mental health related incidents documented at the school. Modesto City Schools and MPD will have data-sharing agreements in place at grant inception. All services provided and referrals made will be documented regarding the participants receiving services or referred for service. Surveys will be given at Mark Twain Middle School before the implementation of the program and through the program. The surveys will assess the level of safety the youth feel, relationship with police, and positive/negative social traits. This assessment will also be provided to schools outside the target area to act as a comparison group. These results, along with official crime statistics of the areas, will determine the success of the program.

To make sure that all participants have great futures, programs must be consistent in the services provided, offering high-yielding activities to help our youth achieve priority outcomes. Retention in the various programs will ensure an increased opportunity for positive outcomes. Outcomes are measured by organizations maintaining the programs as well as the Modesto Police Department. Case management is an integral part, with proper record keeping and documentation to ensure targeted individuals receive appropriate services. All documentation will be collected and assessed on a quarterly basis.

B. Grantee is responsible for ensuring that invoices submitted to the BSCC claim actual expenditures for eligible project costs.

1. Description of Community Need
The Modesto Police Department (MPD) is requesting funding from the BSCC CalVIP grant program to implement Project SUCCESS (Serving and Understanding our Community with Compassion and Education for Safer Streets), a multi-faceted, evidence-based program to combat against the impact of violence on vulnerable communities in our city. Modesto is seeing a disproportionate amount of violent crime when compared to California averages. In 2019, the California average for aggravated assaults was 250 cases per 100,000 people, while Modesto had 578 aggravated assaults per 100,000 people (Federal Bureau of Investigation [FBI], 2019). This can be attributed to lower income levels, language barriers, lack of easily available resources/services, coupled with a higher number of group members residing in and frequenting high crime areas.

After careful review of Modesto’s violent crimes, identifying hot spots, demographics, and availability of services/resources, Southwest (SW) Modesto was identified as the micro-targeted population. SW Modesto is an impoverished community, with high numbers of violent crimes and multi-generational group members residing and frequenting there. It is also a multi-cultural community that can present additional language and service barriers.

In 2021, MPD took 76 aggravated assault reports (excluding domestic violence) within the target area. There was a large concentration (hot spot) of aggravated assaults within this area compared to the rest of the city. Crime rates are highest for individuals in their adolescence with the peak of violent crime offending occurring around 17 years of age (FBI, 2016). In 2021, MPD identified suspects in violent crimes as young as 13 with a peak at age 18. It is imperative to reach young adolescents and provide preventive measures prior to this peak in an effort to stop the onset of violent behavior. Multiple factors contribute to childhood offending, but three external factors shown to increase delinquency include poor parenting, negative school experiences, and delinquent peers (Agnew & Brezina, 2012, p 328). Within Stanislaus county, 62.1 per 1,000 children reported having experienced child abuse or neglect while the state average was 52.9 per 1,000 children (kidsdata.org). In addition, 10.2% of 7th graders in Stanislaus County reported feeling either "unsafe" or "very unsafe" at schools #14..
- 356 -
City of Modesto – Police Department CalVIP Proposal Narrative – Project SUCCESS | Page 2 of 12 (kidsdata.org). Lastly, 5.9 per 1,000 juveniles are arrested locally on a felony charge while the California rate is 3.9 per 1,000 juveniles (kidsdata.org).

Based on this data, the following strategies have been identified for this project:
early intervention, focused deterrence, mentoring/credible messengers, mental health services, street outreach, and employment/job training. It is through these strategies that multi-cultural services will be implemented to prevent and redirect toward positive pathways. Project SUCCESS will implement new and innovative interventions for the target area in an effort to prevent or minimize the influence of contributing delinquency factors within the target area. Modesto encompasses 44.8 square miles with a total population of 220,210 (CA. Department of Finance report, 2020). The targeted area of SW Modesto encompasses 9.16 square miles with a total population of about 20,840.

Adolescents will be referred into the program with an expectation of serving a minimum of 400 youth and 100 adults per year.

Within Modesto, there are 2,014 adults and 137 juveniles who are on active probation and 766 individuals currently on parole. According to the CDCR, 45% of those released are reconvicted within 3 years with 13% of those offenses being crimes against persons. It is important that services are provided to ensure that recidivism is diminished. Modesto desperately needs a reintegration program with a multiple prong approach to redirect those released from incarceration into healthy lifestyles, with the hope of reducing violent crimes in the Modesto community. Offenders often cross into other communities to commit crimes, therefore the target population for the reintegration component will include anyone returning to Modesto from incarceration.

2. Project Description
Project SUCCESS is a partnership between the City of Modesto – Police Department (MPD), the Parks, Recreation and Neighborhoods Department and three community-based organizations (CBO’s). It will focus on two populations with the highest needs: pre/adolescent and incarcerated individuals being released.

Pre/adolescent children were identified as needing services and programs to prevent violent behaviors by providing positive alternatives to violence (early intervention, mentoring/credible messengers, mental health services, street outreach). We recognize #14..
- 357 -
City of Modesto – Police Department CalVIP Proposal Narrative – Project SUCCESS | Page 3 of 12 children are often exposed to crimes and/or are victims themselves who have been traumatized. Project SUCCESS will put programs in place to provide for victim needs.

While it is very important that early interventions are put into place, it is also crucial to have resources in place to assist those who are reintegrating back into society after having committed a crime (focused deterrence, employment/job opportunities). We have a solid reintegration program being implemented by professionals and formerly incarcerated individuals who have successfully reintegrated after multiple years in prison. Partnerships for referrals from the local Parole and Probation Offices have been established and Project SUCCESS anticipates serving 80 parolees each year.

MPD, in partnership with El Concilio California (ECC), Legacy Alliance Outreach (LAO), Boys and Girls Club of Stanislaus County (BGCSC), Parks, Recreation and Neighborhoods Department (PRND), and Modesto City Schools (MCS) proposes a program to reduce violence within Modesto with a multi-faceted strategy. Project SUCCESS will strengthen the community-police relationships in the micro-targeted population deemed to be at the highest risk of violence (identified as SW Modesto), provide opportunities for early intervention, education, family and mental health services, providing for a safer community by reducing crime and the fear of crime in SW Modesto. These goals will be targeted for youth, the community, and those recently released after incarceration.

The first goal of Project SUCCESS is to strengthen community-police relationships in the target area deemed to be at the highest risk of violence. This will be accomplished through a focus on early interventions and strengthening relationships between law enforcement and the youth in SW Modesto. The primary vehicle to accomplishing this goal will be to implement a School Resource Officer (SRO) in coordination with MCS, who will work full-time at Mark Twain Middle School (which is within the target area) and assist in the surrounding five (5) elementary schools on a monthly basis. Introducing an SRO into a school can have a positive impact on students when the SRO takes an active, preventive role instead of a visual deterrence role.

Research has shown that schools with an SRO can have less assaults and weapons brought to school (College of Social Work; James & McCallion, 2013). Project SUCCESS strongly believes that building relationships and trust with law enforcement #14..
- 358 -
City of Modesto – Police Department CalVIP Proposal Narrative – Project SUCCESS | Page 4 of 12 at an early age, inclusive of families, will be key in lowering the propensity for negative behavior leading up to criminal activity. The SRO will not be in place as a disciplinary figure at the school, but as a positive role model who will implement ongoing in-class and one-on-one programming with the students to create positive interactions.

Additionally, the SRO will develop and implement a Junior Cadet Program for students in grades 5-8, allowing students to see career opportunities in public safety, learn valuable skills and build self-confidence. The Junior Cadet Program will include physical training, fingerprint work, classroom teaching, demonstrations by specialized units, tours and visits to the MPD. This program will expose children and their families to public safety in a positive and inviting manner. In addition to the SRO and Junior Cadet program there will be several mobile recreation opportunities presented that work to create positive social interactions between youth, their families and public safety in an informal and safe environment. Mobile recreation activities bring equipment and supplies where they may be lacking (SW Modesto) and create safe environments for healthy physical activity, good sportsmanship and well-being. These activities will include Park Play Pop Up events in coordination with PRND which provide for Social and Emotional Learning (SEL)-based themes provided with equitable access and by trained staff to provide positive youth development. Family Movie Nights in the Park where families can come together in target area parks to create memories watching some classic movie favorites and a Leisure Buck Scholarship Program which provides funding for qualifying families in the target area to go toward recreation programming.

The second goal of Project SUCCESS is to provide opportunities for early intervention, education, family and mental health services in the target area of SW Modesto. These preventative measures will establish positive pathways for youth in the target area by increasing after school programs, activities, tutoring, and other proven programs effective in improving grades, increasing self-esteem and providing positive alternatives to youth residing in the target area. This objective will be accomplished in a few ways, the first of which is increasing the knowledge of social services agencies, schools, community groups and leaders on group member issues through a series of 40 presentations provided by the BGCSC in the southwest area of Modesto. #14..
- 359 -
City of Modesto – Police Department CalVIP Proposal Narrative – Project SUCCESS | Page 5 of 12 BGCSC will then implement a comprehensive program aimed at improving grades, increasing self-esteem, and providing positive alternatives for youth residing in the target area. These programs will take place in a new building BGCSC recently acquired, which is located in the target area. Participants will be referred from schools, law enforcement, marketing, and targeted outreach. Youth attendance will be tracked via proxy cards and software with their measurements involving tracking grades, surveys, grade-level advancement, graduation rates, etc. BGCSC requires a parent or assigns a mentor involved in the students’ lives to participate in the program, resulting in thousands of volunteer hours contributed by parents. Boys & Girls Clubs of America, in collaboration with Pennsylvania State University, developed Street SMART to keep youth engaged in risk-prevention activities. It is designed to encourage youth to resist the culture of social cruelty, to stand against bullying, and reject gang violence. The program is based on the understanding that helping youth avoid harm is about more than teaching youth to say “no” to peers, standing up to bullying and avoiding gangs.

Young people must learn to be aware of their own hurtful or controlling behaviors and practice positive ways of resolving differences.

Access to mental health services and other interventions will be another objective of this goal. Project SUCCESS recognizes ongoing diverse outreach strategies are critical to the success of any program. First, to address the unique challenges and barriers of the target area, ECC will utilize a series of targeted outreach strategies and tactics designed to educate, motivate, and encourage all eligible target populations and communities to take advantage of Project SUCCESS programs. In order to provide culturally appropriate messaging saturation, leverage resources, identify gaps, and ensure coordination across the target area and additional stakeholders, ECC will employ a proven collaborative framework across its outreach platform. Strategies include: 1: leveraging relationships and community resources, 2: collaboration with faith-based organizations and networks to support program outreach, 3: leverage existing campaigns and activities to reach the target community to promote Project SUCCESS education and information, 4: develop culturally responsive resource toolkits, 5: use civic engagement outreach tools, 6: develop a communications and media strategy designed to target hard-to-reach populations, 7: identify trusted community messengers as Project SUCCESS Ambassadors. ECC has an integrated and coordinated #14..
- 360 -
City of Modesto – Police Department CalVIP Proposal Narrative – Project SUCCESS | Page 6 of 12 approach to working with partners and grassroots organizations to address gaps and avoid duplication in reaching low-income, at-risk, hard-to-reach communities while allowing for appropriate messaging saturation.

The second objective for the success of this goal is the provision of mental health services and programs. ECC utilizes Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, Person-Centered Therapy, Narrative Therapy, and Brief Solution Focused Therapy in its multi-faceted mental health service program. ECC will implement multiple outreach programs focusing on prevention, education, and intervention. In addition, stigma-reducing presentations will be made to the community using ECC’s Every Mind Matters campaign. ECC will host Youth Cafés that focus on mental health topics covering the trauma related to living in and with violence from ages 12 to 21 years. Lastly, ECC will offer its Youth@Work program, which is an 8-week workforce/job readiness program, utilizing ECC’s proprietary Ceilings Unlimited Job Readiness curriculum, including, but not limited to, technological literacy, Microsoft Office instruction, job applications, resumes, interview skills, job search skills, networking, life skills, and preparing an individual to attain and retain employment for those 16-21 years of age. The program also offers one-on-one case management support. At the end of the program, ECC hosts a job fair with over 25 engaged local business ready to hire applicants. These jobs are for all sectors of employment and offer living wages. Follow up indicates that over 60% of the Ceilings Unlimited clients hired through the job fairs are still working three months later.

The third and final goal of Project SUCCESS is to provide for a safer community by reducing crime and the fear of crime in the target area. The promotion of positive interactions with law enforcement and community members is a primary mission for Project SUCCESS. For this particular goal, the first objective is establishing professional relationships and enhancing communication, which are key. One way to do that is to have specific officers who routinely work in the target area with an engagement-first mindset. Officers from MPD’s Crime Reduction Team and the Street Gang Unit will spend 50 hours per month in the target area to engage the community and provide proactive enforcement when needed. Engagement will take many forms from presence in the target area, communicating with established trusted messengers, as well as #14..
- 361 -
City of Modesto – Police Department CalVIP Proposal Narrative – Project SUCCESS | Page 7 of 12 anyone residing in the target area, to participating in the recreation events and activities outlined in goal number one. These same officers will also assist the SRO with the programs and curriculum provided to the students participating in activities, such as the Junior Cadet Program and the BGCSC after school programs. These efforts will provide a safe space for youth in the target area to build a positive and proactive relationship with the officers serving their community which, in turn, builds trust. Additionally, these officers will be involved in providing presentations to the community on topics such as group member violence, how to stay safe, and how to report criminal activity to the police. Additionally, extra patrols will be provided by these officers to the target area when there is a violent crime in that area, when data shows an increase in crime, or at the request of the community. It is common for people to live in fear after a violent crime has occurred in their community; having known officers will be present after a violent crime has occurred can help the community feel safe and reduce the likelihood of retaliation crimes. The goal is for community members and police officers to have already established a relationship prior to this and ensure that the community is confident that the police will provide the services they need/are requesting. This further assists in building trust and police-community relations as community members will have established relationships with specific officers and therefore have a direct line of communication when reporting suspicious activity.

The second objective for this goal is to provide parole/probation reintegration services to prepare formerly incarcerated men, women and juveniles to reenter the community.

LAO will implement a reintegration program, which will fill a much-needed gap in the Modesto community. LAO recently purchased a home for this type of program and will provide housing, transportation, cultural relations workshops, job training, family reunification and more. LAO already has established a great working relationship with the Stanislaus County Parole Office and will coordinate the Incarcerated Community Reintegration Program (ICRP) as a 12-week curriculum designed to prepare formerly incarcerated men, women, and juveniles to reenter and reintegrate into society as prosocial community members. This will be accomplished by helping returning community members with rides and warm hand-offs from prison to Modesto; housing referrals and short-term housing for some participants, social skills, employment, family #14..
- 362 -
City of Modesto – Police Department CalVIP Proposal Narrative – Project SUCCESS | Page 8 of 12 reunification, educational advancement, mental health treatment, substance abuse treatment, computer literacy training and self-care. This program will awaken innate empathy for community members, trigger accountability, and help individuals learn to navigate the barriers that may have hindered them in the past, manage and remove stressors of life that cause relapse into criminal behavior and violent patterns by helping navigate life positively in the community. LAO helps stabilize social networks, establishing contacts and connections to resources for employment, healthcare, mental health treatment and family reunification. LAO will refer qualified individuals for applicable services provided by ECC. LAO also partners with Project Rebound, which is a program out of California State University, Stanislaus. This program offers special services and a supportive environment to formerly incarcerated individuals pursuing higher education upon release.

3. Organizational Capacity and Coordination
To implement Project SUCCESS, the City of Modesto – Police Department proposes the following outline of the role and organizational capacity of each involved entity:

City of Modesto – Police Department (MPD):

As the lead agency, the MPD will provide overall programmatic, financial and evaluation oversight. MPD operates under the direction of the Police Chief, Brandon Gillespie, and has the proven success to oversee large projects, including Federal and State grants. Over the last ten (10) years, MPD has received and managed millions of dollars in federal and state grant funds including the successful management of five (5) BSCC grants. A Lieutenant with prior grant management experience and 22 years in law enforcement who serves as the Assistant Division Commander of the Investigations Division, will provide general operational oversight for the School Resource Officer/Junior Cadet Program, community outreach activities and events and the proactive engagement/presence of our Crime Reduction Team and Street Gang Unit.

The department’s Senior Crime Analyst and an additional Crime Analyst will take lead on overall coordination of grant deliverables and project evaluation in close coordination with the to-be selected project evaluator and an Administrative Office Assistant III who will provide support for collection and retention of data from all partner agencies as required for the project evaluation. An Administrative Analyst II and the Public Safety #14..
- 363 -
City of Modesto – Police Department CalVIP Proposal Narrative – Project SUCCESS | Page 9 of 12 Business Services Analyst will oversee the financial reporting and documentation for all grants including Project SUCCESS, if awarded. MPD will assign a School Resource Officer (SRO) to Mark Twain Jr. High as a role model vs. disciplinarian and the individual will be selected based on experience with youth/youth programming, ability, communication skills, etc. The Officers and Sergeants from the Crime Reduction Team (CRT) and Street Gang Unit (SGU). The Officers will be selected with the needs of Cultural Diversity Severity and Language Barriers in mind.

City of Modesto – Parks, Recreation and Neighborhoods Department (PRN):

PRN will host numerous activities complimenting the SRO and CBO activities but not duplicating them. PRN has long been established in our neighborhood parks; however, with budget reductions their reach has been limited in recent years. Through Project SUCCESS, PRN is able to provide a more focused, integrative approach to ensure services are offered and accepted in the target area in coordination with all affiliated partners. PRN reaches hundreds of thousands of youth (and adults) annually through its wide array of recreation offerings. The basis for all PRN programming is promote literacy and social-emotional learning to equip youth with the ability to use the appropriate tools and skills to successfully navigate current and future challenges and opportunities. The Lead Recreation Coordinator for Project SUCCESS has been working with youth for 33+ years, targeting at-risk youth.

Boys and Girls Club of Stanislaus County (BGCSC):

For over 100 years, Boys & Girls Clubs of America (BGCA) has been involved in youth development, working with youth from disadvantaged economic, social and family circumstances. In 2013, Boys & Girls Club Stanislaus County (BGCSC) began implementing programs in the City of Modesto. Since inception, with the assistance of various grant funding and local donors, they continue to strategically add schools and locations to reach under/unserved and disparate communities in Stanislaus County.

BGCSC is well-equipped to serve in this capacity as it is an expansion of the work it has been providing Stanislaus County for nine (9) years.

El Concilio California (ECC):

ECC has provided services to families and individuals within the City of Modesto for over 20 years, providing critical services and programs to the marginalized, #14..
- 364 -
City of Modesto – Police Department CalVIP Proposal Narrative – Project SUCCESS | Page 10 of 12 economically-segregated, under/unserved, at-risk populations and diverse communities of color. Staffing consists of Therapists, Mental Health Outreach Workers, Substance Abuse Counselors, Peer Partners and more. Services consist of an integrated approach with Cognitive Behavioral Therapy; Collective Efficacy; Employment and Job Training; Focused Deterrence; Intensive Case Management; Mental Health Services; Mentoring/Credible Messengers; Street Outreach.

ECC operates under a Board and has a vast number of instructors and support staff, influencers, stakeholders and natural partnerships with like-minded agencies and organizations as part of a Community Based System and Continuum of Care and Service. ECC clients are acquired via referrals from hospitals, schools, law enforcement, their Civic Engagement Team, marketing, social media, job fairs, and more. ECC identifies successful participants and provides facilitator and leadership training for them. ECC is well-equipped to provide these new services in the target area.

Legacy Alliance Outreach (LAO):

LAO combines education and experience, from those formerly incarcerated and some never incarcerated, along with licensed clinicians and educators to implement a much needed, comprehensive reintegration program to the City of Modesto. One leader, Michael Baldwin spent 26 years in prison. During his last 18 years of incarceration, he led Restorative Justice Programs to over 10,000 inmates at 3 different locations. LAO has established working partners with Stanislaus County Parole and Probation for referrals. He is a paralegal with an A.A. degree and founded Criminal and Gang Members Anonymous (CGA). LAO closed escrow this month on a home in Modesto to house individuals specific to this program. LAO works closely with local educators and programs, including Project Rebound at CSU Stanislaus to enroll formerly incarcerated members into college. Having those who have been incarcerated and reintegrated successfully align with licensed professionals ensures a successful reintegration program. LAO has in-house partners in place to track all grant activities and budget management of the grant and in-kind funding.

4. Project Evaluation and Monitoring
#14..
- 365 -
City of Modesto – Police Department CalVIP Proposal Narrative – Project SUCCESS | Page 11 of 12 Once awarded the CalVIP grant, we will seek bids from research companies to complete a formal, local evaluation plan for Project SUCCESS. Below are the current Goals and Outcomes we will evaluate for program success.

Program Goals:
 Decrease violent crime in target area and target populations  Improve police-community relationship in target area
 Reduce the fear of crime in target area
 Increase number of youth provided with alternatives to group membership  Increase number of youths educated to resist alcohol/drugs/delinquent peers  Improve mental and emotional health of youth
 Increase youth role models/mentors to help peers resist negative peer pressure  Increase number of youth peer groups with reinforcement for healthy choices  Improve attitude toward learning, improved behavior and grades in schools  Increase the number of youth graduating from high school  Decrease the amount of recidivism in prior incarcerated individuals Program Objectives and Outcome Measures:
 SRO will be implemented in Mark Twain Middle School
 Junior Cadet Program will be developed and implemented  Reach 800 youth annually through hosted community events and programs  Provide Brief Intervention Counseling, Outreach and Engagement  Min. of 60 unduplicated Youth/Transitional Aged Youth services, Year 2 & 3.  Bimonthly Youth Cafes
 Establish Alternatives to Violence (AVP) workshops
 Establish annual 8-12-week parenting courses
 76-140 youth annually in the Youth @ Work Program
 50 hours monthly of increased public contact and patrols in target area  40 presentations about social services agencies, schools, community groups and leaders on group membership (gang) issues.
 4 monthly presentations on mental health services
 80-100 individuals annually going through the reintegration program #14..
- 366 -
City of Modesto – Police Department CalVIP Proposal Narrative – Project SUCCESS | Page 12 of 12  Percentage of violent crime will decrease in target area  Percentage of positive police-community interactions will increase in target area  Percentage of mental health incidents will decrease at Mark Twain Middle School  Percentage of reoffending by prior incarcerated individuals will decrease  Percentage of the community feeling safer will increase in target area  Percentage of juvenile offender violent crime will decrease in target area All data and survey information in the measured outcomes will be provided to the consultant contracted to complete a local evaluation report for all grant components.

MPD expects to increase services focusing on the target area and target populations to ensure decrease in violent behavior and criminal offending.

Each individual program has a detailed plan of tracking its participants. The tracking process will include the participants name, age, school, demographic information, school discipline records, and criminal history. It will also include the total number of mental health related incidents documented at the school. Modesto City Schools and MPD will have data-sharing agreements in place at grant inception. All services provided and referrals made will be documented regarding the participants receiving services or referred for service. Surveys will be given at Mark Twain Middle School before the implementation of the program and through the program. The surveys will assess the level of safety the youth feel, relationship with police, and positive/negative social traits. This assessment will also be provided to schools outside the target area to act as a comparison group. These results, along with official crime statistics of the areas, will determine the success of the program.

To make sure that all participants have great futures, programs must be consistent in the services provided, offering high-yielding activities to help our youth achieve priority outcomes. Retention in the various programs will ensure an increased opportunity for positive outcomes. Outcomes are measured by organizations maintaining the programs as well as the Modesto Police Department. Case management is an integral part, with proper record keeping and documentation to ensure targeted individuals receive appropriate services. All documentation will be collected and assessed on a quarterly basis.

RE: City of Modesto/Police Department Response Proposal to CalVIP Project To Whom It May Concern:

As the President and CEO of El Concilio, one of the largest multi-service nonprofit agencies serving all low income, marginalize and at-risk communities in California’s Central Valley, and on behalf of the agency’s board of directors, this letter reaffirms El Concilio California’s (ECC) agreement to partner with the City of Modesto/Police Department on the proposed California Violence Intervention and Prevention (CalVIP) Grant response as submitted by the City of Modesto/Police Department.

The City of Modesto/Police Department and ECC, together, believe the program outlined within the proposal will effectively accomplish the CalVIP goals and objectives to provide for a safer community. As such, ECC agrees to participate in the CalVIP Program, and provide programs, staff, services, and training, as outlined within the proposal, to provide prevention programs to at risk youth within the Southwest area of Modesto – the identified areas of need in our community.

El Concilio is committed to be an integral part of the CalVIP project. For 54 years, El Concilio California has remained committed to providing the best services possible to the Central Valley and Stanislaus County communities through outreach, education, engagement, intervention, counseling, and referrals.

Serving over 75,000 individuals and families annually, El Concilio looks forward to working with the City of Modesto/Police Department. I wish the City of Modesto/Police Department great success with their proposal and look forward to working with you in the near future.

Sincerely,
José R. Rodriguez

Consider approving the Parks, Recreation and Neighborhoods revised spending plan in accordance with the 2021 Modesto Forward strategy for the use of American Rescue Plan Act (ARPA) funds in the amounts of $500,000 for The Awesome Spot Playground, $750,000 for the Tuolumne River – Economic Development Strategy, and $1,270,028 for Park Deferred Maintenance; amending the Fiscal Year 22/23 Capital Improvement Program and Non-Capital project budgets to fund the projects outlined in the attached ARPA Phase 1 Spending Plan for Park Improvements. (Funding Source: American Rescue Plan Act Funding) STRATEGIC PLAN ELEMENT:

This item is consistent with the following 2020-2025 Strategic Plan Areas of Focus: Quality of Life and Governance and Service Delivery.

BACKGROUND:

In April 2021, President Biden signed into law the American Rescue Plan Act (ARPA) a $1.9 trillion emergency relief measure intended to address the economic hardships and negative impacts caused by the COVID-19 pandemic. The bill provides $45,897,056 available to the City of Modesto to help address the local impact of COVID-19. On May 25, 2021, by Resolution 2021-194, Council approved the Pandemic Recovery Strategy, Modesto Forward, and the associated spending plan for the first allocation of ARPA funding. Funding for Park Improvements were allocated in the Modesto Forward plan in two separate key areas of focus as outlined below:

Key Area of Focus Amount of Funding Allocated
Economic Vitality
Support for The Awesome Spot Playground $500,000
Tuolumne River – Economic Development Strategy $750,000 Governance and Service Delivery
Park Deferred Maintenance $1,270,028
Total Phase 1 ARPA Funds Allocated to Park
Improvements
$2,520,028
The Treasury Department has periodically released guidance on the eligibility of funds, and released their Final Rule for the use of ARPA funds in January 2022. A summary of the allowable uses is below:

1. Public Health Response
a. Coronavirus State and Local Fiscal Recovery Funds provide resources to support the public health and safety response required due to the pandemic. Additionally, these funds can support services that address disparities in public health that have been exacerbated by the pandemic. The City is able to use this funding to address a broad range of public health needs across COVID-19 mitigation, medical expenses, behavioral healthcare, and public health resources.

2. Address Negative Economic Impacts
a. To help alleviate the economic hardships caused by the pandemic, Coronavirus State and Local Fiscal Recovery Funds enable eligible state, local, territorial, and Tribal governments to provide a wide range of assistance to individuals and households, small businesses, and impacted industries, in addition to enabling governments to rehire public sector staff and rebuild capacity. Among these uses include:
i. Supporting small businesses, helping them to address financial challenges caused by the pandemic and to make investments in COVID19 prevention and mitigation tactics, as well as to provide technical assistance. To achieve these goals, recipients may employ this funding to execute a broad array of loan, grant, in-kind assistance, and counseling programs to enable small businesses to rebound from the downturn.
ii. Speeding the recovery of the tourism, travel, and hospitality sectors, supporting industries that were particularly hard-hit by the COVID-19 emergency and are just now beginning to mend. Similarly impacted sectors within a local area are also eligible for support

3. Supporting the Hardest-Hit Communities and Families
a. Support with investments in housing and neighborhoods, such as services to address individuals experiencing homelessness, affordable housing development, housing vouchers, and residential counseling and housing navigation assistance to facilitate moves to neighborhoods with high economic opportunity;
b. Addressing educational disparities through new or expanded early learning services, providing additional resources to high-poverty school districts, and offering educational services like tutoring or afterschool programs as well as services to address social, emotional, and mental health needs.

4. Replacing Lost Public Sector Revenue
a. Recipients may use these funds to replace lost revenue. The Treasury’s Final Rule establishes a methodology that each recipient can use to calculate its reduction in revenue. Alternatively, recipients may choose to take a standard allowance of $10 million in Revenue Replacement over the life of the program to be used on governmental services, rather than utilize the revenue loss formula for their amount of eligible funds. Because of the flexibility that using the standard allowance of $10 million offers the organization, the City of Modesto is opting to use the standard allowed rather than the revenue loss formula to help promote the ability of the organization to maximize the reach of the funds.

5. Investments in Water and Sewer Infrastructure
a. Recipients may use Coronavirus State and Local Fiscal Recovery Funds to invest in necessary improvements to their water and sewer infrastructures, including projects that address the impacts of climate change. Recipients may use this funding to invest in an array of drinking water infrastructure projects, such as building or upgrading facilities and transmission, distribution, and storage systems, including the replacement of lead service lines.

6. Investments in Broadband Infrastructure
a. Recognizing the acute need in certain communities, Treasury’s Final Rule provides that investments in broadband be made in areas that are currently unserved or underserved—in other words, lacking a wireline connection that reliably delivers minimum speeds of 25 Mbps download and 3 Mbps upload.

DISCUSSION:

Based on the Final Rule released by the Treasury Department in January 2022 the Parks, Recreation and Neighborhoods Department has evaluated the previously allocated funding and prepared a revised spending plan. The detailed revised spending plan for ARPA Phase 1 funding in parks is attached to this agenda report. In addition, in an effort to ensure compliance with the Final Rule the revised ARPA Phase 1 Spending Plan outlines the estimated timeline for completion of each park improvement project and indicates that all funding should be spent well before the expenditure deadline for the funding.

The Awesome Spot Playground was originally intended to be funded through an agreement with Valley Mountain Regional Center, the non-profit fiscal agent for The Awesome Spot Playground.

However, since that time, discussion with The Awesome Spot Playground Team has resulted in a recommendation that the best use of the funding will be to place it in Capital Improvement Project (CIP) 100984 (The Awesome Spot Playground) to allow the City to purchase playground equipment and other materials for the project.

The chart below provides a summary of the detailed revised spending plan by the new ARPA funding category:

CITY OF MODESTO

COUNCIL AGENDA REPORT
DATE OF MEETING:

July 12, 2022
Date: June 17, 2022
TO: Mayor and City Council
THROUGH: Joseph P. Lopez, City Manager
FROM: Bill Sandhu, Director of Public Works
SUBJECT: Gallo Center for the Arts, City Lot 25 Parking Agreement CONTACT: Patrick Crowley, Facility Manager/Building Administration, [email protected], 209-402-6812
DESCRIPTION:

Consider approving an agreement with Gallo Center for the Arts for a two-year term, retroactive to July 1, 2022 through June 30, 2024 for discounted employee parking in Lot 25 with annual parking permits to be paid on a quarterly basis. (Funding Source: Parking Services Enterprise Fund)
STRATEGIC PLAN ELEMENT:

The recommended action supports the 2020-2025 City of Modesto Strategic Plan Initiative:

Economic Vitality “retain and attract residential, commercial, and industrial development to meet the community’s needs today and for the next generation”; Goal G:” Make downtown Modesto a regional destination”.

BACKGROUND:

The Gallo Center for the Arts (Gallo Center) is located in the downtown core of Modesto. In the past, in order to support parking for their employees, the Gallo Center had negotiated a subagreement with American Specialty Healthcare (ASH) to use 25 parking permits during day use, and an additional five permits for evening use in the City Parking Lot #25, located at the corner of 9th and I streets. At that time, ASH had an approved parking agreement with the City of Modesto for parking permits associated with the use of the City’s Lot # 25 to support their business and employees.

On October 6, 2021, the ASH Parking Agreement, entered into on February 28, 2017, and executed on October 4, 2017, was terminated pursuant to Sections 8(c) and 8(d) of the Parking Agreement, which had anticipated 150 downtown jobs and associated parking needs.

Unfortunately, ASH was unable to meet the terms of the agreement, which resulted in the #16..

City Council, July 12, 2022
Gallo Center for the Arts, City Lot 25 Parking Agreement

Page 2 of 3 ends

termination of the ASH sublease to Gallo Center. Subsequently, all parking permits reverted back to the City of Modesto and ASH was no longer authorized to use Lot 25.

DISCUSSION:

Due to the reversion of the parking permits associated with Lot # 25, the City and Gallo Center management met on June 14, 2022 to discuss ongoing employee parking for the non-profit organization. The use of the City’s Lot # 25, to accommodate on a first come first serve basis 35 parking permits, was proposed with a not to exceed number of 40 parking permits at a rate of $50 each, per month. Furthermore, it is recommended that any new addition or substantive changes to the number of parking permits may be authorized by the City Manager or his designee. This proposal is recommended as a two-year agreement. Furthermore, the rate offered in the agreement matches the Council approved employee discount for transit bus drivers per Resolution 2018-557 that established a rate of $50 per month.

The agreement will include the following requirements:

1. Duration will be for two-years from date of execution

2. Permits will be annual permits paid on a quarterly basis by Gallo Center

3. Monthly Parking Permit rates will be set at a rate of $50 per month, a discount of $30 per month from the current Council-approved set rate of $80

4. Up to 40 permits may be issued each year

5. Parking spaces are not reserved or guaranteed
The Director of Public Works, authorized under Modesto Municipal Code Title 3, Article17, Section 3-2.1701 temporary use of off-street parking spaces, has exercised his authority to initiate the temporary approval of parking permits for the month of July, 2022. Final long-term use of the discounted parking permits issued to Gallo Center employees is pending formal Council approval. If approved, the agreement will align with the City’s fiscal year period, beginning July 1, 2022.

FISCAL IMPACT:

The following summarizes the fiscal impact to the Parking Fund:

1. Revenue generated through this agreement is anticipated to be up to $24,000 annually; whereas, the previous agreement subleased from ASH produced no revenue to the City.

This assumes a maximum of 40 permits are purchased for the duration of the 2-year period.

The annual parking permits, to be displayed on the dashboards of the employee’s vehicles, is covered through the Parking Services Enterprise Fund which is consistent with monthly permit holders.

The duration of this agreement will have minimal impact on the Parking Services Enterprise Fund and will generate guaranteed revenue by the Gallo Center’s employees utilizing the surface parking lot that was not previously received under the ASH agreement.

DESCRIPTION COST
Anticipated revenue generated for the 2-year term is
up to: $48,000
Program Total Est. $48,000

Gallo Center for the Arts

Modesto, CA 95354
March 28, 2022
Re: Parking Agreement for Surface Lot 25 at 9th & I Street Dear Customer,
On February 28, 2017 the City of Modesto entered into a five (5) year agreement for parking with American Specialty Healthcare, Inc. (ASH). This agreement provided employee parking permits for Lot 25 which is located at 9th and I Street. These permits were valid for use between the hours of 6:00 a.m. and 6:00 p.m., Monday through Friday. We are sending this letter to inform you that the agreement with ASH for these parking permits has ended effective October 6, 2021.

It is our understanding the Gallo Center for the Arts had entered into a subcontract with ASH for several of the parking spaces located in the lot at 9th and I Street. With the end of the City’s agreement with ASH, these spaces have reverted back to the City of Modesto to utilize for public parking by customers of all downtown businesses. Realizing the Gallo Center for the Arts may still have parking needs, and before these spots are opened up to the rest of the downtown businesses, we are reaching out to provide an opportunity to the Gallo Center for the Arts to purchase monthly parking permits and retain access on a first-come-first-served basis at this same location.

As a courtesy, the City will pause any enforcement of the original hang tags for thirty (30) days from the date of this letter. Parking Enforcement will begin on all expired permits after that period. If you are interested in purchasing the parking permits, please contact our office by calling (209) 571-5140, Monday through Friday, between the hours of 8:30 a.m. to 4:30 p.m.

We are committed to delivering excellent customer service and count on citizens like you to help us achieve that goal. If you have further questions or need additional information, please contact us at (209) 571-5140.

bidders were notified online and via email of the bid opportunity. Twenty-six companies chose to download the Request for Proposal (RFP) document.

On November 12, 2021, one company chose to respond, which was not a local vendor. An evaluation committee comprised of Community and Economic Development (CEDD), City Manager’s Office (CMO), Finance, and Public Works evaluated the single proposal, obtained reference checks and determined the response from DIXON to be responsive and responsible to the RFP.

Through the issuance of an RFP and Specification No. INF 22-06, Parking Services will be able to better outline the parking infrastructure and technology recommendations and strategies for Downtown Modesto based on current and anticipated parking program needs. The recommendations are built upon results from past studies and findings identified as follows:
 Parking System Assessment (2006)
 Downtown Parking Strategy Memorandum (2014)
 Downtown Modesto Implementation Plan (2017)
 Downtown Master Plan (2020)
DISCUSSION:

On February 1, 2022, the City Manager authorized and executed an Agreement with DIXON to review the aforementioned plans and assessments, to identify potential gaps in parking services and infrastructure, and to make initial recommendations regarding infrastructure opportunities that will benefit the businesses and visitors of the Downtown area.

DIXON followed a methodology of guiding principles that focused on sustainability, equity, adaptability, and prioritized customer service and ease-of-use.

CITY OF MODESTO

COUNCIL AGENDA REPORT
DATE OF MEETING:

July 12, 2022
Date: June 20, 2022
TO: Mayor and City Council
THROUGH: Joseph P. Lopez, City Manager
FROM: Bill Sandhu, Public Works Director
SUBJECT: Compost Facility Flexible Pricing Pilot Program Extension CONTACT: Rosene Salmo, Integrated Waste Program Manager [email protected] (209) 577-5453
DESCRIPTION:

Consider approving the extension of the Compost Facility Flexible Sales Pricing Pilot Program approved on April 2, 2019, and extend for one additional year effective August 1, 2022 through July 31, 2023 with the option to extend for two additional years at the discretion of the City Manager, or his designee. (Funding Source: Compost Fund) STRATEGIC PLAN ELEMENT:

The recommended action is consistent with the Council’s Strategic Plan Area- Quality of Life:
“Engage partners across the community to ensure the safety, resilience, and attractiveness of Modesto;” Goal D: “Provide safe, efficient, and reliable infrastructure through proactive community investment, maintenance, and sustainability efforts.” BACKGROUND:

The City of Modesto Compost Facility began operation in January 1997. The Compost Facility’s primary and state mandated purpose is to process the City’s diverted yard waste, paper waste and food waste materials into a reusable soil amendment product (compost), thus keeping these materials from entering the landfill and lowering the disposal rate. A secondary purpose of the Facility is to then market and sell the finished compost to farmers, landscapers and backyard gardeners, which in turn helps keep the Facility sustainable. Compost is also donated to community gardens and landscape projects, parks, schools, churches, and has been used in our own City projects. Annually, the Facility receives approximately 50,000 tons of raw compostable waste materials and processes it into nearly 25,000 tons of compost.

In 2017-2018, SCS Engineers, Inc. was hired to conduct a comprehensive review of the City’s solid waste system, including the compost facility and its operations. Several findings and recommendations were made pertaining to compost. One of the findings discussed the changes in state law that made organic recycling and composting mandatory, and the demands it would have on the facility operationally and financially. However, there was no elaboration on what the #18..

Compost Facility Flexible Pricing Pilot Program Extension

impacts of this new influx of material would be, or what would happen to the quality of compost or the market conditions. The Compost Facility is now experiencing the following conditions that impact the demand for the City’s compost:
•State Regulations AB1826 and SB1383 have mandated recycling of organics resulting in a 75% diversion of organics materials out of landfills and into composting facilities.

This new supply of material is estimated to be in excess of 20 million tons statewide annually. This new supply is expected to create an overabundance of product inventory both locally and nationwide. The market becoming saturated makes pricing and material quality key factors for moving the product. •This new supply of incoming organics material is heavily contaminated with glass, plastic bags/film, foil, and hard plastics. An increase in public education and enforcement will help to address some of the problem over time, but expensive machinery and manual labor are needed to separate out the contamination. Until that becomes financially feasible, these contaminating materials are ending up in the final product, which has limited the sales dramatically as the eligible use applications such as for parks, sport fields and nut farming has diminished. Some product can be spread on City land, but the City is truly limited as to what it can do with the finished product if it is contaminated. This limits the permitted space available at the facility to continue to receive and process City, residential, and commercial material.

Due to the above conditions and free market competition, compost bulk purchases have been inconsistent with sales off by as much as 50%. This creates an oversupply of contaminated product at the facility which can lead to operation permit violations.

On April 2, 2019, by Resolution No. 2019-140, Council approved a flexible pricing pilot program for one year. On June 2, 2020, by Resolution 2020-248 Council approved a flexible pricing pilot program for two years to determine the effectiveness of the program regarding the oversupply of product by making it more financially enticing to move product. With the flexible pricing, compost supervisory staff has been able to lower the price of the product as necessary to move it in order to create room to continue processing the city and residential/commercial green waste and organic material to stay in compliance with State law.

While the outbound finished product sales are inconsistent, the facility continues to receive inquiries from private companies and other cities about bringing the City their organics for processing as required by SB1383. The changing State’s regulations now require jurisdictions to compost. Finding a site that is fully permitted, with appropriate capacity, and is willing to take more material is at a premium.

DISCUSSION:

Since the Flexible Sales Pricing Pilot Program was approved in April 2019, the Compost Facility recorded approximately 15 bulk-sale customers (purchases over 100 tons) receiving as much as 50% off the lowest posted rates noted in the table below. The result was the annual average bulk purchases (tons) increased by over 100% in 2019, 2020 and 2021 in comparison to 2018 sales. The ability to move product is a critical component of our composting operations and permit regulations. It is evident that having the ability to negotiate pricing and offer competitive rates has been a benefit to the Compost Facility and its operations during this pilot program. #18..

Compost Facility Flexible Pricing Pilot Program Extension

Page 3 of 3 ends

FISCAL IMPACT:

The continuation of the flexible pricing program would target the 40+ yard pricing category, as this constitutes the large commercial customers who purchase compost in bulk, up to several thousand yards of material at a time. Due to SB 1383 compost procurement and purchasing requirements, the lower bulk pricing will attract cities and jurisdictions to contract with the compost facility to purchase more compost to satisfy their compost procurement requirements.

Current product sales pricing is as follows:
1-4 yards $17.59 (+tax) per yard
4-39 yards 9.22 (+tax) per yard
40+ yards $7.08 (+tax) per yard or $12.04 (+tax) per ton Under the flexible pricing, the Integrated Waste Program Manager would be able to advertise and offer discounted pricing such as seasonal or oversupply specials up to 75% off in order to move the product to keep the Compost Facility in state permit compliance and allow room for incoming product processing.

The compost budget includes revenue from compost sales. All revenue generated as a result of the flexible pricing pilot program would help to balance the Compost Fund budget.

COMMITTEE RECOMMENDATION:

This item was reviewed by the Finance Committee on June 27, 2022, and the Committee recommended forwarding to Council for approval.

CEQA/NEPA REQUIREMENTS:

This is an administrative action and therefore does not require environmental review.

RECOMMENDED COUNCIL ACTION:

Staff Recommendations:

Resolution approving the extension of the Compost Facility Flexible Sales Pricing Pilot Program approved on April 2, 2019, and extend for one additional year effective August 1, 2022 through July 31, 2023 with the option to extend for two additional years at the discretion of the City Manager, or his designee.

TO: Mayor and City Council
THROUGH: Joseph P. Lopez, City Manager
FROM: William Wong, Director of Utilities
SUBJECT: Agreement with Wastewater Solids for Digester Cleaning Services CONTACT: Ben Koehler, Chief Plant Operator, [email protected] (209) 342-4502 DESCRIPTION:

Consider approving the award of bid for the furnishing of Digester Cleaning Services to Wastewater Solids, Yachats, OR, for an estimated annual amount of $47,690, and a total amount not to exceed $322,663 over five years. (Funding Source: Wastewater Fund) STRATEGIC PLAN ELEMENT:

The recommended action supports the 2020-2025 City of Modesto Strategic Plan Initiatives, Goal D: Provide safe, efficient, and reliable infrastructure through proactive community investment, maintenance, and sustainability efforts.

BACKGROUND:

The City’s Sutter Treatment Plant utilizes a Digester Gas Treatment System. There are two operational anaerobic digesters that are used to stabilize wastewater solids. Only one digester is in service at a time and are both rotated annually. After a rotation, the digester contents need to be removed and screened prior to discharge in to the biological solids drying beds for drying.

On June 13, 2017, by Resolution 2017-235, Council authorized the award of bid for the furnishing of Digester Cleaning Services to Wastewater Solids Management Company (Wastewater Solids), Yachats, for an estimated annual cost of $36,350 and total cost over five years of $181,750.

On November 14, 2017, by Resolution 2017-447, Council approved the payment of Invoice 1019-17, from Wastewater Solids Management Company of Yachats, OR, in the amount of $41,700 for additional cleaning of Digester outside of contracted amount.

The annual agreement no. 120959 with Wastewater Solids Management is set to expire on June 12, 2022.
