Meeting: City Council - Jun 07 2022
Agenda Heading: CONSENT CALENDAR
Staff Contact: Sergio Rudin,
Department: City Attorney
Title: Approval of Settlement Agreement for Four Eighteen Holdings, LLC v.

City of Monte Sereno, Santa Clara County Superior Court Case No. 20CV370686 in the Amount of $50,000
Recommendation(s):

Staff recommends that the Council approve the settlement agreement for Four Eighteen Holdings, LLC. v. City of Monte Sereno, Santa Clara County Superior Court Case No. 20CV370686 in the amount of $50,000.

Background Information:

On June 30, 2020, the City Council adopted a resolution denying Four Eighteen Holdings, LLC’s (“Developer’s) application to develop a single family home at 16005 Greenwood Lane in Monte Sereno (“Project”). By letter dated September 1, 2020, Developer asserted that the City Council had been unlawfully biased and violated the Brown Act in connection with its denial of the Project, and demanded that the City cure and correct the violation within 30 days, in accordance with Government Code section 54960.1. Pursuant to Government Code section 54960.1, the City Council acted to cure and correct the alleged violation without admitting liability. First, on September 29, 2020, the City Council set aside the City’s denial of the Project and resolved to reconsider the Project at a public hearing on November 17, 2020.

Second, on November 17, 2020, following the duly-noticed public hearing, the City approved the Project. Meanwhile, on September 14, 2020, Developer filed suit against the City—Four Eighteen Holdings, LLC v. City of Monte Sereno, Santa Clara County Superior Court Case No. 20CV370686 —alleging five causes of action: (1) writ of mandate based on alleged violation of the Housing Accountability Act; (2) writ of mandate based on alleged denial of fair hearing due to bias and insufficient findings; (3) declaratory relief; (4) alleged violation of due process; and (5) alleged denial of equal protection. The City filed a motion to dismiss. By order dated October 12, 2022, the Superior Court granted the City’s motion to dismiss with respect to the writ and declaratory relief claims, but denied the motion with respect to Developer’s due process and equal protection claims. The Parties engaged in settlement negotiations, including a mediation on April 14, 2022, which resulted in the proposed settlement agreement for the Council’s approval to settle the case.

Analysis:

Page 8 of 98 ends

The key points of the settlement are that the City agrees to pay and the plaintiff agrees to accept, the sum of $50,000. Additionally, the City will provide a cover letter to the Plaintiff upon execution of the settlement, stating:

The City of Monte Sereno is committed to living up to the mission of the Brown Act, to wit: "The people of this State do not yield their sovereignty to the agencies which serve them. The people, in delegating authority, do not give their public servants the right to decide what is good for the people to know and what is good for them not to know. The people insist on remaining informed so that they may retain control over the instruments they have created.” The Ralph M. Brown Act, California Government Code § 54950 Approval of the proposed settlement payment is also included on the warrant list, as payment needs to be delivered within 21 days of execution of the agreement. The proposed settlement does not involve any admission of liability and would be entered into to avoid the expense and uncertainty of further litigation.

Public Noticing:

The City Council's agenda was posted at City Hall and the agenda and this report appear on the City's website.

SCOPE OF WORK

4.2 Scope of Work
EMC Planning Group will undertake the following work program to deliver a certified housing element to the City of Monte Sereno.

Task 1 Project Management and Coordination
This task covers communication and coordination between the EMC Planning Group team, city staff, regional collaborators and HCD and includes meetings, phone conferences, email exchanges, and other communications. The EMC Planning Group team will attend one (1) kickoff meeting with staff to discuss project goals, issues, availability of reference materials, work product expectations, communications protocols, public outreach program, and site inventory. The team will also meet with staff four (4) additional times on days that coincide with community outreach and engagement (see Task 2, below). Finally, this task includes consultation with the California Department of Housing and Community Development (HCD), which is typically handled with regular phone calls to HCD staff. City staff is expected to be available for meetings with the EMC Planning Group team, to take regular coordination phone calls, and to provide city documents as needed.

Task 2 Community Outreach and Engagement
This task involves measures that EMC Planning Group will take to engage the Monte Sereno community in the 6th cycle housing element update process. The 6th cycle RHNA numbers are a sea change for all California communities, and the success of the update process hinges in part on a community outreach and engagement program that is robust, inclusive, and meaningful. COVID-19 has complicated community outreach efforts, but the pandemic has also catalyzed the development of new digital tools that have brought interactive engagement to a new level. One such tool is an all-in-one digital community engagement platform called Bang the Table (https://www.bangthetable.com/).

EMC Planning Group is partnering with Bang the Table as a cornerstone of its community outreach and engagement program. Using the Bang the Table platform, the EMC Team will work with City staff to design an interactive engagement plan that allows community members to engage on their own time.

Community workshops can span days and include customizable discussion forums, and through the digital platform, discussions can be made available in multiple languages and moderated to weed out any personal attacks, profanity, or off-topic comments.

The following are a sample of the tools available through the Bang the Table platform:

Forums. A safe and interactive space for Monte Sereno community-members to discuss and debate pertinent issues. This site is moderated to assure safety.

Ideas. These post-it are a way for Monte Sereno community-members to share what

Page 24 of 98 ends

inspires them. EMC Planning Group staff can then assist in creating virtual stakeholder groups to ideas.

Places. Gather feedback an drop.

Stories. Help your community better understand, empathize, and relate to others and to all that contributes to contemplating additional housing in the community.

Guestbook. Simple, streamlined, and moderated space for Monte Sereno community-members to upload comments.

Q&A. Receive questions in a managed space that accommodates messages through the iterative brainstorming process.

Polls. Ask a single question and get immediate insight with this quick and targeted tool.

Surveys. Encourage Monte Sereno community-members to voice their opinions in a convenient way that can also help us understand what areas of town need more encouragement to participate.

Aggregate data can help the town understand generally who is participating with the outreach tools. (2) community meetings, one (1) stakeholder focus group, and other online/virtual participation opportunities made possible through Bang the Table. Also, as part of this effort, EMC Planning Group will work with City staff to develop a list of organizations that will be contacted to participate in the update process. City staff will be responsible for identifying and/or confirming focus group members and providing EMC Planning Group with appropriate contact information.

Task 3 Housing and Special Housing Needs
This task involves quantifying Monte existing and projected housing needs for all income levels based on Code. EMC Planning Group will also analyze special housing needs based on data from Census 2020 and interviews with social service agencies in the area. Special housing needs will be evaluated for the disabled, elderly, large families, farmworkers, families with female heads of households, and families and persons in need of emergency shelter.

This task assumes that ABA g Technical Assistance Program will provide jurisdictionspecific graphs and write-ups for all required data, including population, demographic, housing, market conditions and regional comparisons. EMC Planning Group anticipates some limited amount of time to tailor the work provided by regional collaborators.

Task 4 Housing Constraints
This task involves the identification of potential and actual governmental and nongovernmental constraints to the preservation, protection, and production of housing across income levels within the city. This task assumes that Regional Housing Technical Assistance Program will provide cross-jurisdictional comparisons necessary for this task, including the comparison of development and permitting fees and processing times. It will also provide write ups of typical countywide non- governmental constraints, including community opposition to housing, cost of construction, limited availability of land and other topics. As with Task 3, above, EMC Planning Group anticipates some limited amount of time to tailor the work provided by regional collaborators.

Page 25 of 98 ends

Task 5 Existing Housing Element
This task involves the review of Monte current housing element to identify the success in accomplishing/implementing housing goals, policies and programs. This review includes explanations and updates for goals, policies, or programs that are in progress, that have been abandoned, or that have proven ineffective.

EMC Planning Group will make use of materials provided in the C Annual Progress Report to HCD.

Task 6 Sites Inventory
This task involves the preparation of an inventory of vacant and underutilized sites that demonstrates Monte ying safe assumptions, evaluating sites, and
analyzing potential policy strategies to increase site capacity, demonstrating development viability and inputting ttal with the updated element. As discussed in the Approach and Methodology section above, EMC Planning Group anticipates that this will be the most significant area of AG/MTC HESS tool to
its best advantage.

Beca inventory of vacant and underutilized sites will rely heavily on accessory dwelling units, we recommend that City staff apply to HCD for grant moneys through the Local Housing Trust Funds (LHTF) program (applications are due in June). LHTF funds may be used for the construction, repair, and reconstruction or rehabilitation of accessory dwelling units or junior accessory dwelling units. Application to the LHTF program would signal to HCD that Monte Sereno is serious about accessory dwelling units.

Task 7 Goals, Policies, Programs and Quantified Objectives This task involves identifying goals, policies, programs, and quantified objectives to address compliance with State law and effectively respond to the housing needs, constraints, and key priorities identified through data gathering and analysis and the public participation process. This task will include identification of other General Plan policy updates or revisions needed to ensure consistency, including review of the Safety Element as required by SB 379.

Task 8 Rezoning
While the focus of this housing element update process will be on analysis and programming for accessory dwelling units, there is the possibility that some very limited amount of rezoning may be appropriate to meet the RHNA numbers. If this is determined to be the case, EMC Planning Group will use the ABAG/MTC HESS tool and its own expertise to identify potential sites for rezoning. If consensus forms around the rezoning of one or more sites to meet the RHNA responsibilities, then EMC Planning Group will include the site or sites in the inventory of vacant and underutilized sites and draft a housing program committing the City to a process that would result in the identified rezonings.

Task 9 Draft Housing Element and Public Hearings
This task first involves the preparation and submittal of an administrative draft housing element for City staff review. City Staff will provide a comprehensive set of recommended changes. Once edits are complete, the team will then prepare a public review draft housing element that is made available to the public and presented to both the Site and Architectural Commission and City Council at public hearings. EMC Planning Group will prepare PowerPoint presentations and attend each of the two (2) public hearings. Based on Commission and Council

Page 26 of 98 ends

10 input, the team will then prepare an HCDreview draft and submit it to HCD for the mandated review.

Task 10 Final Draft Hearings, Final Adoption and Certification This task involves working closely with HCD and City Staff to respond to any comments and produce a final draft housing element for final adoption. EMC Planning Group will prepare PowerPoint presentations and present the final draft document at public hearings before the Site and Architectural Commission and before the City Council (two (2) hearings total). The team will then prepare the final adopted housing element, including any changes from the public hearings, and submit it to HCD for final certification. It will also distribute the document to the water/sewer district and the California Office of Planning and Research.

Task 11 CEQA Documentation
This task involves the preparation of all documents required for California Environmental Quality Act (CEQA) review and submittal. CEQA review will be limited to the preparation of an initial study/ mitigated negative declaration. If it is determined that an environmental impact report is required, then EMC Planning Group will undertake this higher level of CEQA review, and a separate budget for EIR preparation has been provided below.

The team will provide materials for public posting and noticing for comment, but City Staff is responsible for publishing the notices and otherwise distributing the materials.

West Valley Community Services
Monte Sereno 6th Cycle Housing Element: Scope of Work
To: Ande Flower, Principal Planner, EMC Planning Group
From: Kylie Clark, Public Policy Coordinator, West Valley Community Services Date: April 22, 2022
Re: AFFH Scope of Work for Monte Sereno 6th Cycle Housing Element Overview
West Valley Community Services (WVCS) is a nonprofit organization fighting poverty by providing critical food, housing, and support services to the low income and homeless individuals and families in the West Valley communities of Cupertino, Los Gatos, Monte Sereno, Saratoga, and West San Jose. In just the past year, 3,168 individuals received critical help from the organization, with 1,207 of those individuals receiving assistance from the agency for the first time. WVCS distributed $1,265,686 in emergency assistance to help 573 individuals avoid homelessness or move into permanent housing.

Because of West Valley’s close interaction with the low-income, unhoused, racially diverse, and non-English-speaking members of our community, the agency is well-positioned to engage these individuals, who are most in need of housing and support, in the Housing Element process. These are also the populations whose involvement is necessary to meet Affirmatively Furthering Fair Housing (AFFH) requirements. WVCS has the experience and capacity to support our clients emotionally and logistically as they navigate sharing their lived experience, such as experiencing homelessness, navigating affordable housing, and living as low-income individuals. With more than 48 years of operating experience, WVCS has unique expertise that can be leveraged to help clients engage in the Housing Element process.

Kylie Clark, the Public Policy Coordinator at WVCS, would be the point-person and leader of the tasks and responsibilities outlined in this document. WVCS recently created the Public Policy Coordinator position to bring the agency into conversations, focusing on uplifting our clients to participate in areas that they don’t traditionally have access to. The coordinator spends time in the community and with clients to bring people together and provide education. Kylie would use her expertise and connections with clients, community members, Community Based Organizations (CBOs) and nonprofits to engage the community at-large and help our cities meet AFFH requirements.

Meeting: City Council - Jun 07 2022
Agenda Heading: CONSENT CALENDAR
Staff Contact: Michelle Estabillo, City Clerk
Department: City Clerk
Title: Consider and Adopt Resolution Extending Teleconferencing of City Council Meetings Pursuant to Government Code Section 54953 (AB 361) Recommendation(s):

Staff recommends that the City Council consider and adopt a resolution extending teleconferencing of City Council meeting pursuant to AB 361.

Background Information:

AB 361 was signed by the Governor of the State of California and went into effect immediately upon signature by the governor. It amends the Brown Act to allow local legislative bodies to continue having purely virtual meetings using teleconferencing and virtual meeting technology as long as there is a gubernatorial “proclaimed state of emergency,” and either (1) state or local officials imposing or recommending measures that promote social distancing or (2) the legislative body finding that meeting in person would present an imminent safety risk to attendees.

The key differences between existing Executive Order N-08-21, which expires September 30, 2021, and AB 361 is that AB 361 imposes particular requirements with respect to public comment, however, the City of Monte Sereno’s current practices with respect to live public comment via Zoom already satisfy all of the new requirements in AB 361. Additionally, public agencies must either make findings by majority vote that the state of emergency still exists and continues to directly impact the ability of the members to meet safely in person, or that health officials continue to impose or recommend measures to promote social distancing.

Determinations by the local agency that the emergency impacts the ability to meet safely inperson must be re-visited every 30 days.

At its September 21, 2021 meeting, the City Council adopted Resolution No. 21-3826 authorizing virtual City Council meetings during declared state of emergency pursuant to Government Code. The City Council determined that the pandemic of COVID-19 creates an imminent safety risk to councilmembers and other potential attendees of City Council meetings. At present, risk of COVID-19 due the delta and omicron variant remains high; the CDC reports that for the period between the period between May 26, 2022 and June 2, 2022 that Santa Clara County had “high” community transmission with 421.14 case rate per 100,000 population, 10.1 new COVID-19 admissions per 100,000 population, and 4.6% staffed

Page 42 of 98 ends

inpatient beds in use by patients with confirmed COVID-19. Due to the ongoing state of emergency, staff believes that the City Council can re-adopt its previous findings, and authorize continued virtual meetings for the next 30 days.

Fiscal Impact:

There are no unbudgeted fiscal impacts with this agenda item.

3. The Legislative Bodies, and City staff, are hereby authorized to take all actions necessary to carry out the intent and purpose of this Resolution, including conducting open and public meetings in accordance with Government Code section 54953(e)(2) and other applicable provisions of the Brown Act.

FAIR POLITICAL PRACTICES COMMISSION
2022 Conflict of Interest Code
Biennial Notice Instructions for Local Agencies
The Political Reform Act requires every local government agency to review its conflict of interest code biennially. A conflict of interest code tells public officials, governmental employees, and consultants what financial interests they must disclose on their Statement of Economic Interests (Form 700).

By July 1, 2022: The code reviewing body must notify agencies and special districts within its jurisdiction to review their conflict of interest codes.

By October 3, 2022: The biennial notice must be filed with the agency’s code reviewing body.

The FPPC has prepared a 2022 Local Agency Biennial Notice form for local agencies to complete or send to agencies within its jurisdiction to complete before submitting to the code reviewing body. The City Council is the code reviewing body for city agencies. The County Board of Supervisors is the code reviewing body for county agencies and any other local government agency whose jurisdiction is determined to be solely within the county (e.g., school districts, including certain charter schools). The FPPC is the code reviewing body for any agency with jurisdiction in more than one county and will contact them.

The Local Agency Biennial Notice is not forwarded to the FPPC.

If amendments to an agency’s conflict of interest code are necessary, the amended code must be forwarded to the code reviewing body for approval within 90 days. An agency’s amended code is not effective until it has been approved by the code reviewing body.

If you answer yes, to any of the questions below, your agency’s code probably needs to be amended.
• Is the current code more than five years old?
• Have there been any substantial changes to the agency’s organizational structure since the last code was approved?
• Have any positions been eliminated or re-named since the last code was approved? • Have any new positions been added since the last code was approved? • Have there been any substantial changes in duties or responsibilities for any positions since the last code was approved?
If you have any questions or are still not sure if you should amend your agency’s conflict of interest code, please contact the FPPC. Additional information including an online webinar regarding how to amend a conflict of interest code is available on FPPC’s website.

I want to be on the Youth Commission to be more involved with my community. I have been a leader in multiple organizations both in and out of school, however, I would like to be a part of something that benefits my own Monte Sereno community. I had a great time in my freshman year being part of the committee. In that year, we created the Monte Sereno Social Justice Scholarship Award. It was such a great experience going through all the submissions and selecting the winners with my fellow commissioners. I hope to recreate some of that energy and start something new that brings the people in Monte Sereno together.

In the past year, I have been heavily involved with the organization Child Advocates of Silicon Valley(CASV), a nonprofit that ensures Santa Clara County foster children have a stable adult in their life. As part of this, I led the creation of a merchandise store to help fundraise and raise brand awareness. I also created budget plans and marketing/promotional material for the organization. Additionally, a few friends and I started the Tribute to Fallen Heroes charity concert in an effort to raise money for the families of firefighters who lost someone in the line of duty. I created a social media marketing campaign, got musicians from around the country to come to perform, and performed myself. In 2020, we raised $12,000, in 2021 we raised $18,000, and we only have bigger plans for next year. Because of these experiences, I have gained many skills, the main few in marketing, public relations, and communication. I also understand how important it is to be flexible and adaptable. After organizing many events for both CASV and the California Fire Foundation, I am able to quickly solve issues when things do not go 100% according to plan.

Given the COVID-19 pandemic, I believe mental health is an extremely important issue for the youth of Monte Sereno. Other things that contribute to this are social anxiety, lack of sleep, and stress. Another issue is the inability to communicate with the elderly. There is such a big generation gap that the feeling of community between the youth and elderly has been lost.

While I do not have any specific career interests at the moment, I would like to go into a career involving finance, economics, and statistics.

Agenda Heading: NEW BUSINESS
Staff Contact: Michelle Estabillo, City Clerk
Department: City Clerk
Title: Adopt a Resolution Ordering and Calling a General Municipal Election to be held in the City of Monte Sereno on November 8, 2022; Requesting the Services of the Registrar of Voters; Requesting Consolidation of Elections and Specifying Certain Policies and Procedures for the Consolidated Election; Determining to Levy a Cost of Candidate Statements; Requiring Payment of Candidate's Filing Fee; and Providing for Giving Notice of Election
Recommendation(s):

Staff recommends that the City Council adopt a resolution of ordering and calling a General Municipal Election to be held in the City of Monte Sereno on November 8, 2022; requesting the services of the Registrar of Voters; requesting the consolidation of election and specifying certain policies and procedures for the consolidation of election; determine to levy a cost of candidate's statements; requiring payment of candidate's filing fee; and providing for giving Notice of Election.

Background Information:

In order for the City to consolidate with the Santa Clara County Registrar of Voters Office and request election services, the Monte Sereno City Council must adopt a resolution requesting such services and specifying the manner in which those election services shall be administered. The attached resolution provides this direction for the General Municipal portion of the election only.

Most election matters are regulated by the California Elections Code. However one of the items which is left to the discretion of the City Council is levying, waiving, or subsidizing the cost of the optional Candidate Statement. The Candidate Statement is an optional 200 word paragraph that a candidate may choose to have printed in the County's election guide. It is most commonly used to express the candidate's position on matters of the community interest and provide background information and qualifications of the candidate for the office which they seek. The estimated cost of the candidate statement for the November 8, 2022 election is $2,400.00. With the exception of one election, the City Council historically has chosen to charge the full cost of candidate statements to the candidates seeking office. Staff recommends that the cost of the optional candidate statement be charged in full to the candidate.

Page 72 of 98 ends

Fiscal Impact:

Should the City Council decide to either bear the full cost of the Candidate Statement of subsidize a portion of the cost, the fiscal impact would be equal to the subsidy amount or the number of candidates multiplied by at least $2,400.00 which is the estimate provided by the Registrar of Voters as of this report's publication. It is important to note that the Registrar of Voters is currently reevaluating its fee schedule and the final election cost estimate may not be available until the fall. As of this report's publication, the November 8, 2022 estimated election costs based on three (3) City Council seats are:
a) Base Charges
Initial Item - City Council Seats (3) $6,182.00
b) Estimated Shared Printing Costs
and Notice of Election - Minimum
Charge $1,500.00
Total Estimated Fees & Costs: $7,682.00

Staff Contact: Reynold Samoranos,
Department: Finance Manager
Title: Consider and Adopt a Resolution Setting the Appropriations Limit for Fiscal Year 2022-2023
Recommendation(s):

Staff recommends the City Council adopt a resolution setting the Appropriations Limit for Fiscal Year 2022-2023 based upon the Price Factor and Population data provided by the State of California Department of Finance.

Background Information:

Article XIII B of the California Constitution requires the City Council to annually set an "appropriations limit" by resolution. The appropriations limitation imposed by Propositions 4 and 111 creates a restriction on the amount of revenue which can be appropriated in any fiscal year. The limit is based on actual appropriations during the 1978-79 fiscal year and is increased each year using growth of population and inflation factors.

Attached is the calculation for the year's appropriations limit, which is $8,119,835 (see Attachment 2). The proposed budget for Fiscal Year 2022-2023 is $5,639,982 and is below the appropriation limit set for the upcoming fiscal year.

Public Noticing:

The City Council's agenda was posted at City Hall and the agenda, and this report appear on the City's website. While the law does not require a public hearing, a Notice of Intent to Adopt a Proposed Appropriations Limit for the 2022-2023 fiscal year has been posted in three locations of the City of Monte Sereno to provide ample public notice.
