DESCRIPTION:

This item is consistent with the following 2025-2026 Strategic Plan Goal I: Promote trust and engagement between the community and the City by enhancing responsiveness, communicating broadly about City opportunities and challenges, and increasing public participation in municipal affairs.

BACKGROUND:

The Community Police Review Board (CPRB) of the City of Modesto was established by Modesto City Council Ordinance No. 3753-C.S.,i on December 13, 2022, as recommended by the Forward Together working group created on June 8, 2021 by Council Resolution No. 2021-216. Pursuant to Council Resolution No. 2022-358 on August 23, 2022, the Forward Together working group report was accepted by the Council. Included in the report was the recommendation to establish a community oversight board and independent police auditor for the City of Modesto. The establishment of a Community Police Review Board was recommended as a dual component of a hybrid police accountability model.

On May 23, 2023, by Resolution No. 2023-230, Brad Hawn was appointed to the Community Police Review Board (CPRB) for a term expiring on June 30, 2028. On March 24, 2026, Mr. Hawn formally resigned from the CPRB prior to the expiration of his term. #1..

California
Ag banking, credit training, civil

I have spent much of my career serving the
public through local government and
victim services. As a Victim Advocate with
the Stanislaus County District Attorney’s
Office, I worked directly with victims and
families navigating the criminal justice
system. This required maintaining
confidentiality, communicating effectively
during difficult situations, coordinating
with multiple agencies, and helping
individuals understand complex
processes.

I also served in county government roles
that involved constituent services, public
engagement, and collaboration with
departments across the county. Through
these positions, I gained experience
listening to community concerns, balancing
differing perspectives, and helping
residents navigate government systems.

My professional training includes victim
services, crisis intervention, traumainformed practices, confidentiality requirements, and public service ethics.

Collectively, these experiences have
strengthened my ability to review
information thoughtfully, communicate
respectfully, and approach issues with
fairness and objectivity.

No police experience. I have
served in the US Army including a
tour of Vietnam from
1967-68.

I am a nursing student
who has completed
comprehensive clinical rotations
and advanced anatomy
coursework, and I was honored to
receive the SEM Award in
Anatomy. This training
requires strict adherence to
procedural protocols, ethical
standards, and evidence-based
analysis and skills that translate
directly to reviewing and auditing

My involvement in the community has
primarily been through my professional
roles in public service. Throughout my
career with Stanislaus County, I have
worked with numerous community
organizations, service providers, public
agencies, advocacy groups, and residents to
address community needs and connect
individuals with resources and services.

My work has also provided opportunities to
attend and participate in community
meetings, outreach events, educational
programs, and public gatherings, both as a
county representative and as a community
member. These experiences have allowed
me to engage with people from diverse
backgrounds, learn about issues affecting
our community, and develop an
appreciation for the importance of
collaboration, civic engagement, and public
trust.

As a resident and parent in Modesto, I
remain interested in issues affecting
families, youth, public safety, and the overall
well-being of our community.

Nothing recently. My community involvement
centers around local healthcare
advocacy and youth
mentorship. Living and working in
Stanislaus County, my interactions
with patients at
major local medical centers have
provided me with a frontline view
of the public health
and safety challenges facing our
community. Additionally, I am
deeply invested in
mentoring and guiding youth
within my community through
Extended Opportunity
Program (EOP), which fuels my
commitment to local initiatives
aimed at reducing
juvenile justice system involvement
and fostering positive community
outcomes.

community involvement. civil
responsibilities
Watching over the community of
Modesto
I am interested in serving on the Community
Police Review Board because I believe
healthy communities depend on trust,
communication, and accountability. Much
of my professional life has been spent
working with people during difficult
situations and helping them navigate
complex systems. That experience has given
me an appreciation for the importance of
transparency, respectful dialogue, and
ensuring people feel heard.

My uncle was a police officer and
in that respect I am aware of some
of the difficulties associated with
the job. Of course the environment
today is far different from what it
was back then. Police are risking
their lives for an unappreciative
public. My goal is making
certain that the complaint process
is a fair one.

I am profoundly interested in the
intersection of community health,
behavioral
psychology, and law enforcement.

The CPRB’s mission to foster
transparency and build
trust aligns with my dedication to
public service. Specifically, I am
drawn to the opportunity to
participate in objective, evidencebased oversight, particularly regarding use-of-force policies and
the board’s subcommittee focus
on reducing youth arrests in
Modesto. I believe that effective
oversight requires a fair, analytical
approach, and I am
eager to help ensure that
municipal policies serve both the
safety of our officers and the
well-being of the community.

Being able to help people

public relations, public speaking,
work well with large groups or
teams,
Investigative abilities I would bring a strong commitment to fairness, professionalism, and public
service. Throughout my career, I have
worked with individuals, families,
community organizations, and public
agencies in situations that often-involved
strong emotions, differing viewpoints, and
complex circumstances. These experiences
strengthened my ability to listen carefully,
remain calm and respectful, and evaluate
issues thoughtfully and objectively.

My background in victim advocacy and
county government has provided
experience working with diverse
populations, maintaining confidentiality,
navigating public systems, and
collaborating with community partners. I
have worked with individuals who held a
wide range of perspectives regarding
government and law enforcement, and my
role was to ensure they felt heard,
informed, and treated with respect while
helping them navigate available processes
and resources. I believe one of my greatest
strengths is my ability to build positive
relationships and communicate effectively
with people from different backgrounds
and experiences. I strive to approach
issues with an open mind, focus on facts,
and contribute to thoughtful, informed
decision-making. I would bring that
balanced and community-focused
approach to serving on the Community
Police Review Board.

A level head who weighs all the
facts carefully before making any
decisions.

I bring a highly specialized, clinical
perspective that is rare in civilian
oversight. My
advanced anatomical training and
healthcare experience allow me
to evaluate critical
incidents, physical trauma, and
physiological stress responses
with scientific objectivity.

Additionally, I have a strong
background in studying behavioral
psychology, particularly
in interpersonal dynamics, deescalation, and communication under pressure, which is
vital for analyzing the mechanics
of police-civilian encounters.

Finally, I possess a
meticulous attention to detail and
a strong interest in municipal
procedure, due process,
and legal frameworks, ensuring I
can thoroughly and impartially
audit complex
investigations alongside the
Independent Police Auditor.

I regularly follow local officials, public agencies, and community updates, and I recently saw information regarding the Board and its vacancies. I had also previously reviewed the City of Modesto’s Boards and Commissions webpage while exploring opportunities for civic engagement and public service.

The Board’s focus on community engagement, accountability, and strengthening policecommunity relationships immediately caught my attention because it aligns with both my professional background and my interest in contributing to the Modesto community. #1..

Describe your involvement in community activities and civic organizations. (Do not list partisan political parties.)
My involvement in the community has primarily been through my professional roles in public service. Throughout my career with Stanislaus County, I have worked with numerous community organizations, service providers, public agencies, advocacy groups, and residents to address community needs and connect individuals with resources and services.

My work has also provided opportunities to attend and participate in community meetings, outreach events, educational programs, and public gatherings, both as a county representative and as a community member. These experiences have allowed me to engage with people from diverse backgrounds, learn about issues affecting our community, and develop an appreciation for the importance of collaboration, civic engagement, and public trust.

As a resident and parent in Modesto, I remain interested in issues affecting families, youth, public safety, and the overall well-being of our community.

What is it about this position that interests you?
I am interested in serving on the Community Police Review Board because I believe healthy communities depend on trust, communication, and accountability. Much of my professional life has been spent working with people during difficult situations and helping them navigate complex systems. That experience has given me an appreciation for the importance of transparency, respectful dialogue, and ensuring people feel heard.

I also enjoy being engaged in local issues and am always looking for meaningful ways to contribute to the community where I live and raise my son. The mission of the Community Police Review Board aligns with my interest in public service, civic engagement, and strengthening connections between community members and public institutions.

List relevant employment, training, and experience, certificates of training, licenses, and professional registration.

My professional background is firmly rooted in healthcare and clinical practice. I have gained direct patient care and operational experience working at both Doctors Medical Center of Modesto and Sutter Health Memorial Medical Center. I am a nursing student who has completed comprehensive clinical rotations and advanced anatomy coursework, and I was honored to receive the SEM Award in Anatomy. This training requires strict adherence to procedural protocols, ethical standards, and evidence-based analysis and skills that translate directly to reviewing and auditing detailed administrative and critical incident reports.

Explain how you learned about the board or commission you are applying for I have been following the city’s "Forward Together" initiative and the ongoing efforts to strengthen the relationship between the Modesto Police Department and the local community. Through staying engaged with local civic developments and municipal affairs in Stanislaus County, I recognized this board as a critical avenue to contribute constructively to local governance.

Describe your involvement in community activities and civic organizations. (Do not list partisan political parties.)
My community involvement centers around local healthcare advocacy and youth mentorship. Living and working in Stanislaus County, my interactions with patients at major local medical centers have provided me with a frontline view of the public health and safety challenges facing our community. Additionally, I am deeply invested in mentoring and guiding youth within my community through Extended Opportunity Program (EOP), which fuels my commitment to local initiatives aimed at reducing juvenile justice system involvement and fostering positive community outcomes. #1..

3/6
What is it about this position that interests you?
I am profoundly interested in the intersection of community health, behavioral psychology, and law enforcement. The CPRB’s mission to foster transparency and build trust aligns with my dedication to public service. Specifically, I am drawn to the opportunity to participate in objective, evidence-based oversight, particularly regarding use-of-force policies and the board’s subcommittee focus on reducing youth arrests in Modesto. I believe that effective oversight requires a fair, analytical approach, and I am eager to help ensure that municipal policies serve both the safety of our officers and the well-being of the community.

What qualities, experience, and expertise would you bring to the Board, Commission or Committee? I bring a highly specialized, clinical perspective that is rare in civilian oversight. My advanced anatomical training and healthcare experience allow me to evaluate critical incidents, physical trauma, and physiological stress responses with scientific objectivity.

Additionally, I have a strong background in studying behavioral psychology, particularly in interpersonal dynamics, de-escalation, and communication under pressure, which is vital for analyzing the mechanics of police-civilian encounters. Finally, I possess a meticulous attention to detail and a strong interest in municipal procedure, due process, and legal frameworks, ensuring I can thoroughly and impartially audit complex investigations alongside the Independent Police Auditor.

I think an impartial voice would be valuable in creating or improving relationships with our police department. I imagine most people don't realize this board exist and feel they don't have a voice. Attending more community events to spread the word of the boards existence would go along way. Attending local community fairs, festivals, social events, school functions would be a good start. They may already be doing this but I haven't seen it.

DISCUSSION:

Of the three City of Modesto members of the TRRP CAC, one member’s term will be ending on December 31, 2026. In preparation for the vacancies, staff coordinated with the City’s Communication Team to outreach the solicitation of applications for the upcoming vacancies. The vacancies were posted on the City’s Instagram account, with the most recent push on September 2, 2026.

During the application process, one application was received. The application that was received is from current TRRP CAC Committee Member, Chris Guptill. Per the TRRP CAC Bylaws, there are no term limits for Committee Members, therefore current members are eligible to continue serving on the TRRP CAC.

On February 10, 2015, Council appointed Chris Guptill to fill a vacancy on the TRRP CAC by Resolution No. 2015-36, through January 1, 2019. Since then, Mr. Guptill has been reappointed twice: on March 5, 2019, by Resolution No. 2019-103, and on January 10, 2023, by Resolution No. 2023-02. Mr. Guptill’s second reappointment will end on December 31, 2026. As an active member in good standing with an attendance rate of nearly 100%, Mr. Guptill is eligible to be reappointed to the TRRP CAC. He has also expressed a desire to continue as a member of the TRRP CAC.

BACKGROUND:

The Modesto City-County Airport (Airport) operates for the benefit of all businesses, industries, visitors and residents in the City of Modesto, Stanislaus County, and the surrounding areas. To ensure that the Airport is maintained and developed in such a manner that it will continue to be a high-quality aviation facility for its users and a good neighbor in the community, the Airport Advisory Committee (AAC) was formed.

The position is open to an individual who is associated with a commercial carrier or service provider and is a tenant at the airport.

To assist with recruitment for the vacant position, the City’s Community and Media Relations Team publicized the AAC vacancy through the City’s social media channels to generate community interest and encourage qualified individuals to apply. In addition, City staff contacted all airport tenants directly to notify them of the vacancy and encourage eligible individuals to submit an application.

The City received four (4) applications for consideration. In accordance with the Airport Advisory Committee bylaws, the committee has reviewed the applicants information and qualifications and is forwarding the qualified applicants to the Appointments Committee for recommendation to City Council.

Jeremiah Williams, Chair
David Wright, Vice Chair
Eric Alvarez, Member
THROUGH: Joseph P. Lopez, City Manager
FROM: Chad Reed, Director of Public Works
SUBJECT: Appointments to the Blight Abatement Advisory Committee CONTACT: John Chavez, Integrated Waste Program Manager, [email protected], 209-577-5453
DESCRIPTION:

Consider appointments of two vacancies to the Blight Abatement Advisory Committee, and forwarding to Council for approval. (Funding Source: Not Applicable) STRATEGIC PLAN ELEMENT:

The City of Modesto experiences blight in both public and private spaces. This includes illegal dumping of trash and large items such as mattresses, appliances, tires, green waste, vehicles, machine parts, illegal encampments, tagging, broken windows, unkempt properties, abandoned shopping carts, inoperable vehicles, and overgrown yards and properties. All contribute to blight in our community and can result in environmental, health, or safety issues for Modesto residents.

Appointments to the Blight Abatement Advisory Committee

Page 2 of 3 ends

In 2019, during the Strategic Planning sessions with community members, a major theme was dissatisfaction regarding blight throughout the City. On December 10, 2019, by Resolution No. 2019-555, City Council approved the Blight Abatement Strategy, which included the creation of a blight abatement task force comprised of public and private stakeholders that will make recommendations to the City regarding program improvements, potential funding opportunities, and support increasing volunteerism.

On October 13, 2020, by Resolution No. 2020-428, City Council approved the formation of the Blight Abatement Advisory Committee (BAAC) and solicited membership of the committee’s nine voting members. According to the Blight Abatement Strategy and the BAAC bylaws, the group acts in an advisory capacity to the City Council and City Manager in matters pertaining to blight and blight abatement efforts, promoting public engagement, blight program improvements, and potential related funding and volunteer opportunities.

DISCUSSION:

The BAAC is made up of seven Committee members who reside in Modesto, two members who reside in Stanislaus County, and one non-voting member appointed from City Council. Three members holding the position of registered electors of Modesto had terms that expired May 31, 2025. One of those members was reappointed, one position was filled, and one position remains vacant. On August 13, 2026, another member, Joshua Navarro, submitted his resignation, creating a second vacancy.

Currently, Position 2 for registered elector of Modesto is vacant and should be appointed for a four-year term. Position 5 for registered elector of Modesto is vacant due to the resignation, and should be appointed to complete the remainder of the term.

For recruitment efforts, the City’s Community and Media Relations Team posted information about the Committee to social media to generate interest and encourage community members to apply. Staff also contacted community groups, partners, and volunteers directly. The City has received four qualified applications for these vacancies.

FISCAL IMPACT:

Appointing members to a committee is administrative in nature, and therefore, does not have a fiscal impact.

CEQA/NEPA REQUIREMENTS:

This item does not constitute a “project” within the meaning of California Environmental Quality Act (CEQA) Guidelines Section 15378 and requires no environmental review.

RECOMMENDED COMMITTEE ACTION:

Staff Recommendations:

Motion recommending the appointment of Position 2 to the Blight Abatement Advisory Committee for a four-year term with an expiration date of December 31, 2030, and the appointment of Position 5 to complete the term ending December 31, 2028, and forwarding to Council for approval.

Dear Mayor Zwahlen,
My name is Kyle Schneider and I would like to be of service to my community by joining the Blight Abatement Advisory Committee. I am a born and raised Modestan that is passionate about making Modesto a better place to live and raise a family. I am 36 years old and have struggled with the majority of my friends that I grew up with leaving Modesto because of its stigma. I am tired of hearing many young citizens complain about our hometown yet choosing to move away instead of rolling up their sleeves to make it better. Blight Abatement is a great place to start when it comes to improving the city as well as its reputation.

When I moved back to Modesto from San Luis Obispo in 2020 I found a very large dumpsite in front of the empty lot next door to me. It seems that once one person puts trash out on the street there is a justification for others to do the same. I decided to do something about it and placed large cardboard “No Dumping” signs on the fence in front of it. I also would confront my neighbors if I saw them doing the same. “Read the sign” I’d say.

Years ago New York had a major problem with graffiti, litter, and crime in the subway transit cars. It seemed that the graffiti led to litter and the combination led to crime. What fixed it? The city decided that no matter what they wouldn’t let any car go out if there was graffiti in it.

All of the sudden the crime and litter went way down. This is a good example of how simple changes can render larger scale results.

When I was in the boy scouts we would always leave campsites cleaner when we left than when we arrived. They would have us form “OC” (Outdoor Code) lines and comb the site for trash. I believe that this instilled a quality in me that many do not possess in Modesto.

There’s a saying that if you want to clean up your life, start by cleaning up your room.

After the housing market crash, I spent my first summer in college doing trash outs for foreclosures. It was very sad to see how bad people can be when it comes to destructive behaviors that lead to things like trashing homes, squatting, as well as drug usage. When conditions are such that you live in filth it infects the rest of your life in a similar fashion.

It is sad that many citizens are not even aware that they get two large item pick ups per year free of charge. I’d like to become part of the solution in all aspects of our community but the Blight Abatement would be an amazing place for me to start.

Thank you for your consideration,
Kyle Schneider

SUBJECT: September update on Citizen Advisory Boards, Commissions, and Committees
terms
CONTACT: Diane Nayares-Perez, City Clerk
[email protected], 209-577-5398
DESCRIPTION:

Consider an informational update on the status of the terms for the Citizen Advisory Boards, Commissions, and Committees. (Funding Source: Not Applicable) STRATEGIC PLAN ELEMENT:

This action supports the City’s Strategic Commitment 2025-2026, “Build Community trust in City Government through Responsive, Transparent and Efficient Service Delivery. Goal I. Promote Trust and Engagement between the Community and the City by enhancing responsiveness, communicating broadly about City opportunities and challenges, and increasing public participation in municipal affairs.”

BACKGROUND
In early 2024, the City introduced a new appointments process to ensure consistency and clarity in advisory member roles. This program aims to standardize practices across the City's 23 advisory bodies, which provide crucial input on community issues. A structured approach was needed to evaluate and document their contributions effectively. #6..

Appointment Committee, September 30, 2026
September update on Citizen Advisory Boards, Commissions, and Committees terms

Page 2 of 3 ends

One of the components of this new process is the presentation of the membership status of the Boards, Commissions, and Committees. This report aims to provide a comprehensive overview of the current membership status of each advisory body, facilitating preparation for the Maddy Act list and closely monitoring upcoming term expirations to ensure timely appointments for upcoming vacancies.

DISCUSSION:

The new appointments process involves presenting an annual report to the Appointments Committee each March. After review and acceptance, the Committee forwards the report to the City Council for formal approval. This procedure ensures that both the Committee and the Council have a comprehensive understanding of the activities and effectiveness of the City's advisory boards, commissions, and committees.

Staff will provide an overview of the appointments process twice a year, in March and September, along with the annual report in March. The reporting schedule:
• March: Annual Reports, summary of upcoming member participation, term expirations, and potential vacancies.
• September: Overview of upcoming term expirations with relevant details for preparation.

This structured reporting and process will improve the City’s management of its citizen advisory groups and ensure they meet their intended goals. The program also supports the City's focus on transparency, efficiency, and informed decision-making.

Below is a summary Board Term Rosters (current and upcoming vacancies) :
