FROM: Dante Hall City Manager
Prepared By: Hayley Goodwein, Administrative Assistant
SUBJECT: Recognize City Employees for Milestone Anniversaries and Retirements in 2026 (Not a Project Under CEQA per Article 20, Section 15378, and Under General Rule Article 5, Section 15061)
RECOMMENDATION:

That the City Council recognize City employees for their milestone anniversaries and retirements for the third
quarter of 2026.

VALUE DRIVERS:

Provide sufficient resources and support to develop,
retain, and recruit a high-quality city workforce.

POLICY IMPLICATIONS:

It is within the City Council’s scope and authority to
acknowledge and recognize employees of the City at
City Council meetings.

CAMPAIGN DISCLOSURE REQUIREMENT (LEVINE
ACT) APPLIES: No.

FISCAL IMPLICATIONS:

No fiscal implications.

ENVIRONMENTAL DETERMINATION:

The City of Monterey determined that the proposed action is not a project as defined by the California Environmental Quality Act (CEQA) (CCR, Title 14, Chapter 3 (“CEQA Guidelines), Article 20, Section 15378). In addition, CEQA Guidelines Section 15061 includes the general rule that CEQA applies only to activities that have the potential for causing a significant effect on the environment. Where it can be seen with certainty that there is no possibility that the activity in question may have a significant effect on the environment, the activity is not subject to CEQA.

Because the proposed action and this matter have no potential to cause any effect on the environment, or because it falls within a category of activities excluded as projects pursuant to CEQA Guidelines section 15378, this matter is not a project. Because the matter does not cause a direct or any reasonably foreseeable indirect physical change on or in the environment, this matter is not a project. Any subsequent discretionary projects resulting from this action will be assessed for CEQA applicability.

Agenda Report Highlights
• The recommendation to City
Council is to recognize the winners
of the City employees who have
milestone anniversaries and
retirements in the third quarter of
2026 to highlight and acknowledge
the hard work and dedication of City
employees.

• There are no fiscal or environmental
implications associated with this
recognition.

AYES: 5 COUNCILMEMBERS: Barber, Garcia, Rasch, Smith, Williamson NOES: 0 COUNCILMEMBERS: (None)
Mayor Williamson left the Chamber from 5:57 p.m. to 5:58 p.m.

9. Provide Direction to Staff on the Creation of a Pilot Sidewalk Repair Program Utilizing Measure S Funds (Not a Project Under CEQA per Article 20, Section 15378 and Under General Rule Article 5, Section 15061)
Action: Directed staff to move forward with Alternative 1 (Minor Repair Program Only), and to bring the matter back to Council in December or January to take another look at Alternative 2 (Minor Repairs Plus Shared Cost for Major Repairs) once Measure S results are known (3-1-1 (Councilmember Smith voting no, Councilmember Rasch abstaining)
Public Works Director Renny gave the staff presentation and answered Councilmembers' questions with additional input from City Engineer/Deputy Public Works Director Easterling. During the presentation Councilmember Barber left the Chamber from 5:23 p.m. to 5:24 p.m.

Public comment was received from: Tom Reeves, who spoke in favor of a major repairs 50/50 cost-sharing program (Alternative 2) with a cap, and suggested use of a means test to assist people on social programs even more; Marta Kraftzeck, who said that priority should be placed on making sidewalks ADA-compliant and repairing sidewalk issues that were caused by City construction; Leslie James, who spoke in favor of the minor repairs program (Alternative 1); Tom Rowley of Monterey Peninsula Taxpayers Association, who spoke in favor of Alternative 2; Adam Pinterits of Monterey County Association of Realtors, who spoke in favor of Alternative 2; Rick Heuer of Monterey Peninsula Taxpayers Association, who expressed concern with the pilot being limited to three years and said City fees should be excluded; and Robert Yoha, who shared a recent sidewalk repair experience, expressed concern about an increase in permit fees, and said that cost sharing would be inadequate. During public comments, Councilmember Smith left the Chamber from 5:42 p.m. to 5:43 p.m.

On question from the Council, City Attorney Davi explained that the obligation of the property owner would not change under any of the proposed pilot programs. Public Works Director Renny said that Alternative 1 would be simple and quick to deploy. She asked about establishing a cap and a first-come first-served basis for the program.

The Council discussed the matter. Comments were made in favor of trying a three-year pilot program with a spending cap. Caution was expressed about spending millions of dollars on a program that was based on resident misunderstanding.

In favor of Alternative 1, Minor Repair Program (in which the City, using Measure S funds, would pay for eligible minor sidewalk repairs, such as slicing or grinding, while major repairs would remain the responsibility of the adjacent property owner under the existing process), it was Council Regular Meeting, 9/15/2026, Item No. 2., Item Page 3, Packet Page 10 City Council Minutes September 1, 2026
4 proposed to run the minor repair program first as a pilot before considering adding a cost-share component for major repairs, citing that staff had indicated that minor repairs represented the largest percentage of sidewalk repairs needed within the last five to seven years. It was stated that there was not yet enough information on the budget impact of a program for major repairs, and concerns were expressed about staff's capacity to administer the cost-sharing program, especially in the face of competing budget needs and the $12M structural deficit. It was stressed that the language for such a program would need to include the same provision listed in the agenda report for Alternative 2: that funding would be subject to annual Measure S appropriations and available program resources.

In favor of Alternative 2, Minor Repairs Plus Shared Cost for Major Repairs (in which the City, using Measure S funds, would pay for eligible minor repairs and also share the cost of major sidewalk repairs with the property owner, such as a 50/50 cost-sharing program), it was stated that it would go further in addressing residents' recent concerns about sidewalks and how their repairs were funded. It was proposed to provide assistance to cost-burdened residents, in a noncomplicated way such as paying for repairs for anyone who is a Medi-Cal recipient. It was suggested that grants could help pay for the program.

It was suggested that the Council consider waiving or reducing sidewalk permit fees; and it was proposed that the Council either provide funding or waive fees, but not both. Questions for staff to consider included how appeals would be handled. During the Council discussion, Councilmember Garcia left the Chamber from 5:53 p.m. to 5:54 p.m.

An initial motion was introduced by Mayor Williamson, and seconded by Councilmember Rasch, to direct staff to prepare materials for a pilot program for minor repairs (Alternative 1).

A substitute motion was introduced by Councilmember Smith, and seconded by Councilmember Rasch, to direct staff to prepare materials for a pilot program for minor repairs plus shared cost for major repairs (Alternative 2).

On a subsequent substitute motion by Mayor Williamson, seconded by Councilmember Garcia, and carried by the following vote, the City Council directed staff to move forward with Alternative 1 (Minor Repair Program Only) and to bring the matter back to Council in December or January after Measure S results are in:

AYES: 3 COUNCILMEMBERS: Barber, Garcia, Williamson
NOES: 1 COUNCILMEMBERS: Smith
ABSTAIN: 1 COUNCILMEMBERS: Rasch
Mayor Williamson and Councilmember Smith left the Chamber at 6:29 p.m. and returned at 6:30 p.m.

10. Receive an Update on the Status of the Updated Climate Action Plan (CAP) and Direct Staff to Proceed with a Non-CEQA-Qualified CAP to Maintain Climate Goals and Fiscal Resilience (Not a project under CEQA Article 20, Section 15378 and under General Rule Article 5, Section 15061)
Action: Provided direction to staff to proceed with a Non-CEQA-Qualified Climate Action Plan to maintain climate goals and fiscal resilience (by declining to pass a motion to proceed with a CEQA-Certified CAP, on which Mayor Williamson and Councilmember Garcia voted yes)
Planning Manager Hill gave the staff presentation and answered Councilmembers' questions.

During the presentation, Councilmember Barber left the Chamber from 6:53 p.m. to 6:54 p.m.

Public comment was received from Tom Rowley, who suggested it could be helpful to look at Council Regular Meeting, 9/15/2026, Item No. 2., Item Page 4, Packet Page 11 City Council Minutes September 1, 2026
5 climate matters at a regional level; and Nina Beety, who questioned the meaningful impact of the Climate Action Plan and said it would be more beneficial to partner with other agencies in the region to ban data centers.

The Council discussed the matter.

In favor of proceeding with a non-CEQA-qualified Climate Action Plan (CAP), it was stressed that the proposed greenhouse gas reduction measures came with high price tags and that due to the timeframe associated with a CEQA-qualified CAP, going with the non-CEQA-qualified plan instead would be significant in terms of money savings for the City given its current fiscal challenges.

Concern was expressed about whether the emissions targets were realistic given the current transportation situation in the area. It was stated that proceeding with a non-CEQA-qualified status would not mean abandoning climate goals. It was proposed to build in a three-year review to allow an opportunity to reassess.

In favor of proceeding with a CEQA-qualified CAP, which was presented as a moral issue, concern was expressed about sending the wrong climate message to residents, younger generations, and neighboring jurisdictions that it was stated look to the City of Monterey as a leader. It was stated that community partners and non-profit organizations could be encouraged to partner with the City and provide financial assistance to reach climate goals. There was concern expressed that a non-qualified plan could be a "toothless advisory document" versus a regulatory tool. It was stated that budget concerns should not override climate priorities. It was suggested to give City staff and the Council more time to explore regional solutions and community partnerships before finalizing, with the budget conversation continuing through the fiscal year.

On question from the Council, Planning Manager Hill said that the purpose of the climate action plan was to establish the City's goals, and that he would not characterize it as toothless, noting that the Council and staff were very serious and clear about their goals and moving forward toward the targets.

A motion was introduced by Mayor Williamson, and seconded by Councilmember Garcia, to direct staff to proceed with a CEQA-certified Climate Action Plan.

On question from the Council, Community Development Director Cole said that the decision could be postponed until the first quarter of 2027. She noted the voluminous amount of work that was before the Community Development Department and said that the CAP will take about a year from the time that staff receives direction. Sustainability Manager Terrasas provided context on the feasibility of working with regional partners on the City's specific CAP projects and the City's approach to taking proactive measures to achieve climate goals.

The Council continued to discuss the matter. It was stated that staff's recommendation should not be taken lightly, due to their subject matter expertise. It was stressed that the City's climate priorities were of prime importance and must be achieved.

On question, Planning Manager Hill summarized Sustainability Manager Terrasas' points, stating that if the Council were to direct staff to continue with a non-CEQA-qualified Climate Action Plan, the Sustainability office would work toward the same climate impact reduction targets regardless, and that while it would not allow the City to utilize the streamlining benefits of a CEQA-qualified CAP, there were other streamlining avenues for staff to utilize for certain projects.

The motion failed by the following vote:

Carefully manage City revenues and expenditures which
support the delivery of City services.

POLICY IMPLICATIONS:

The recommended agreement supports administration
of the City’s workers’ compensation program in

deadlines, City claims-handling instructions, and Public Risk Innovation, Solutions, and Management (PRISM)
excess coverage requirements. Contract award and
administration remain subject to the City’s purchasing, contracting, insurance, and budget policies.

Date: 9/15/2026
Item No.: 5.

Council Regular Meeting, 9/15/2026, Item No. 5., Item Page 1, Packet Page 24 №12/25
FISCAL IMPLICATIONS:

Staff recommend Pegasus’s annual flat-fee option for claims administration and per-bill option for bill review, which includes the applicable per-bill fee plus 23% of preferred provider organization (PPO) network savings. Claims administration fees total $819,400 for the initial five-year term. The agreement would include an initial five-year term with the option to extend for up to five additional one-year terms, for a maximum contract term of 10 years. Annual claims administration fees would be applied sequentially as shown below.

Contract
Year Term Claims Administration Fee
Year 1 Initial term $157,000
Year 2 Initial term $157,000
Year 3 Initial term $165,700
Year 4 Initial term $165,700
Year 5 Initial term $174,000
Total $819,400
The fixed claims administration fee includes required Medicare Secondary Payer reporting, access to and training on Pegasus’s claims management system, and claims-history indexing through Insurance Services Office (ISO) ClaimSearch. No data conversion fee is proposed because Pegasus is the incumbent administrator.

Allocated claim expenses and ancillary services are billed separately, including medical treatment, legal services, return-to-work coordination, special investigations, bill review, utilization review, and medical case management.

For bill-review services, staff recommends Pegasus’s per-bill pricing structure, with rates of $8.75 per bill in Years 1–2, $9.00 per bill in Years 3–4, and $9.25 per bill in Year 5, plus a fee equal to 23% of preferred provider organization (PPO) network savings.

ENVIRONMENTAL DETERMINATION:

The City of Monterey determined that the proposed action is not a project as defined by the California Environmental Quality Act (CEQA)(CCR, Title 14, Chapter 3 (“CEQA Guidelines), Article 20, Section 15378). In addition, CEQA Guidelines Section 15061 includes the general rule that CEQA applies only to activities which have the potential for causing a significant effect on the environment. Where it can be seen with certainty that there is no possibility that the activity in question may have a significant effect on the environment, the activity is not subject to CEQA. Because the proposed action and this matter have no potential to cause any effect on the environment, or because it falls within a category of activities excluded as projects pursuant to CEQA Guidelines section 15378, this matter is not a project. Because the matter does not cause a direct or any reasonably foreseeable indirect physical change on or in the environment, this matter is not a project. Any subsequent discretionary projects resulting from this action will be assessed for CEQA applicability.

ALTERNATIVES CONSIDERED:

The City Council may: (1) decline to authorize the agreement and direct staff to negotiate with another proposer; (2) reject all proposals and issue a new solicitation; or (3) authorize a different initial term or fewer extension options and direct staff to revise the agreement.

Council Regular Meeting, 9/15/2026, Item No. 5., Item Page 2, Packet Page 25 №12/25
DISCUSSION:

The City contracts with a third-party administrator to support the administration of its workers’ compensation program, including claims investigation and administration, benefit and reserve management, litigation and settlement coordination, statutory reporting, medical management, return-to-work coordination, and claims-system reporting and oversight.

Effective workers’ compensation administration is a key operational and risk-management function for the City, helping ensure injured employees receive timely benefits and treatment while supporting regulatory compliance, return-to-work efforts, accurate financial reserving, and control of long-term claim exposure.

On February 3, 2026, the City issued a Request for Proposals for workers’ compensation thirdparty administration services. Six proposals were received by the March 2, 2026, deadline. Staff conducted a comprehensive review based on the criteria established in the solicitation, including approach, organizational capacity, staffing, familiarity with the City’s program, agreement compliance, reputation and stability, references, and cost. Following the evaluation, staff determined that incumbent administrator Pegasus Risk Management, Inc. offered the best overall value to the City.

Pegasus specializes in public-entity workers’ compensation administration, with approximately 99% of its clients consisting of Northern California public entities. Pegasus has administered the City’s workers’ compensation program for approximately 20 years, providing continuity and substantial institutional knowledge of the City’s claims history, public safety exposures, local provider landscape, return-to-work practices, and City-specific claims-handling protocols. Its dedicated examiner and supervisory team have supported the City’s program for nearly two decades, preserving established working relationships and consistency in the application of City protocols and excess-carrier requirements.

Pegasus proposes to continue the City’s existing staffing model with a dedicated Senior Claims Examiner and Claims Supervisor, supported by a Future Medical Examiner and Claims Assistant. The dedicated examiner’s caseload would not exceed 125 indemnity files, and supervisors generally do not maintain active caseloads, allowing additional oversight of complex or high-exposure claims.

Pegasus has also demonstrated measurable performance in administering the City’s program, reporting a 99% score in the City’s 2024–2025 claims audit conducted through the Authority for California Cities Excess Liability (ACCEL). Over the past five years, Pegasus reports that the claims team maintained an average closing ratio exceeding 105%, meaning claims were closed at a rate exceeding new claim intake, helping reduce the City’s open claim inventory and longterm exposure. During the same period, 121 cases were resolved through stipulations, dismissals, and compromise and release agreements.

The proposed program also integrates bill review, utilization review, medical case management, investigations, return-to-work services, and medical provider network support with the core claims-administration function. Pegasus provides secure claims-system access with real-time claim and payment information and standard and customized reporting. Quarterly claim-review meetings and customized training are included at no additional cost.

Council Regular Meeting, 9/15/2026, Item No. 5., Item Page 3, Packet Page 26 №12/25
Because Pegasus is the incumbent administrator, continuation of services would not require a claims transition or data conversion and would avoid the associated transition costs and disruption to the City’s open claim inventory.

Staff recommends an initial five-year agreement with the option to extend the agreement for up to five additional one-year terms. The proposed structure maintains continuity of the City’s workers’ compensation program while allowing the City to evaluate performance, cost, and program needs before exercising each extension option.

ENVIRONMENTAL DETERMINATION:

The City of Monterey Planning Division determined that the proposed action is not a project as defined by the California Environmental Quality Act (CEQA) (Article 20, Section 15378). In addition, CEQA Article 5, Section 15061 includes the general rule that CEQA applies only to projects which have the potential for causing a significant effect on the environment. Where it can be seen with certainty that there is no possibility that the activity in question may have a significant effect on the environment, the activity is not subject to CEQA. Because the proposed action has no potential to cause any effect on the environment, this matter is not a project.

Because the proposed action does not cause a direct or any reasonably foreseeable indirect physical change on or in the environment, this matter is not a project. The appropriate level of CEQA review will be conducted on the future project prior to the City taking any action and on any future development of City property. No decision is considered by the City Council at this time that could be analyzed through the CEQA process.

ALTERNATIVES CONSIDERED:

The City must provide executed agreements to expend FY 2022-2023 funds ($99,805) by April 30, 2027, and therefore, it is recommended that the City enter into grant agreements with local homeless services providers for use of these PLHA funds. Staff recommends entering into agreements with Gathering for Women ($44,814.75), and Community Human Services ($50,000).

DISCUSSION:

The City Council is requested to distribute the State PLHA funds to provide homeless services in compliance with the Council adopted five-year PLHA plan.

Background
The City created a 5-Year Plan for Permanent Local Housing Allocation (PLHA) funding based on eligible activities under PLHA. The purpose of PLHA is to provide a permanent source of funding to all local governments in California to help cities and counties implement plans to increase the affordable housing stock, specifically:

Council Regular Meeting, 9/15/2026, Item No. 6., Item Page 2, Packet Page 31 №12/25
• increase the supply of housing for households at or below 60% of area median income; • increase assistance to affordable owner-occupied workforce housing; • assist persons experiencing or at risk of homelessness; • facilitate housing affordability, particularly for lower- and moderate-income households; • promote projects and programs to meet the local government’s unmet share of regional housing needs allocation; and
• ensure geographic equity in the distribution of the funds.

The City Council adopted Resolution 24-104 approving its five-year PLHA plan and allocating money to homeless services (Activity #6). Activity #6 allows funds to be utilized to assist persons who are experiencing or at risk of homelessness, including, but not limited to, providing rapid rehousing, rental assistance, supportive/case management services that allow people to obtain and retain housing, operating and capital costs for navigation centers and emergency shelters, and the new construction, rehabilitation, and preservation of permanent and transitional housing.

Applicants must provide rapid rehousing, rental assistance, navigation centers, emergency shelter, and transitional housing activities in a manner consistent with the Housing First practices described in 25 CCR, Section 8409, subdivision (b)(1)-(6) and in compliance with WIC Section 8225(b)(8). An applicant allocated funds for the new construction, rehabilitation, and preservation of permanent supportive housing shall incorporate the core components of Housing First, as provided in WIC Section 8255, subdivision (b). 1st Amendment to 5-Year PLHA Plan
The City applied for and was awarded a PLHA grant in FY 2019-2020 in the amount of $116,419. The City completed an amendment with the adoption of Resolution 24-023 on Tuesday, February 20, 2024, to dedicate 95% of FY 2019-2020 funds to MidPen Housing for predevelopment costs. This money has been expended.
2nd Amendment to 5-Year PLHA Plan
On June 18, 2024, Resolution 24-104, the City adopted the second amendment to PLHA funding for Fiscal Years 2020-2024. This amendment dedicated funds starting in FY 20-21 toward Activity #6 (homeless services) of the PLHA program.

Notice of Funding Availability (NOFA) for PLHA funds
The City released a NOFA for PLHA grant funding on October 30, 2025, with a deadline for submitting completed applications on December 12, 2025. The City hosted a mandatory online application meeting on November 12, 2025. A rating and ranking committee consisting of members of the Housing Division, Planning Division, a member of the Planning Commission, a member of the Police Department’s Mutli-Disciplinary Outreach Team (MDOT) and City’s Housing Consultant, rated and ranked applications for award. The rating and ranking committee heard presentations from applicants and finalized rating and ranking on January 16, 2026. The organizations that applied for funding included Gathering for Women, Community Human Services and Victory Mission. To meet the request for funding expenditure deadline of April 30, 2027, it is recommended that the City enters into agreements with Gathering for Women ($44,814.75), and Community Human Services ($50,000). These agencies will provide homeless services in the City of Monterey.

Council Regular Meeting, 9/15/2026, Item No. 6., Item Page 3, Packet Page 32 №12/25
Conclusion
Staff recommends the City Council authorize $99,805 in PLHA funds to award funding for vital homeless programs and that the City Manager be authorized to enter into agreements with Gathering for Women and Community Human Services for FY 2026-2027.

A description of any project for which the housing successor receives or holds property tax revenue pursuant to a Recognized Obligation Payment Schedule and the status of that project.

The Housing Successor holds property tax revenue on the Monterey Hotel Apartment Project, a mixed-use property. With approval from the Department of Finance, the Housing Successor retained $1,320,066 (from the Reserve Fund and Other Fund) in former Redevelopment Agency (RDA) housing set-aside funds as an enforceable obligation. These funds are recognized in the Recognized Obligation Payment Schedule (ROPS) and are obligated for the completion of the apartment portion of the Monterey Hotel mixed-use property.

Champion regional and local efforts to secure adequate, affordable, and sustainable water sources for the city, now and into the future.

POLICY IMPLICATIONS:

This Community Services District was formed pursuant to Community Services District Law (Government Code
section 61000 et seq.,) to own and operate a desalination plant to provide residential and commercial water to the Ocean View Plaza Project (“Project”) located at 457, 465, 470, 484, 565, and 570 Cannery Row.

ENVIRONMENTAL DETERMINATION:

The City of Monterey determined that the proposed action is not a project as defined by the California Environmental Quality Act (CEQA)(CCR, Title 14, Chapter 3 (“CEQA Guidelines), Article 20, Section 15378). In addition, CEQA Guidelines Section 15061 includes the general rule that CEQA applies only to activities which have the potential for causing a significant effect on the environment. Where it can be seen with certainty that there is no possibility that the activity in question may have a significant effect on the environment, the activity is not subject to CEQA. Because the proposed action and this matter have no potential to cause any effect on the environment, or because it falls within a category of activities excluded as projects pursuant to CEQA Guidelines section 15378, this matter is not a project. Because the matter does not cause a direct or any reasonably foreseeable indirect physical change on or in the environment, Agenda Report Highlights
• The City Council, as the

that could take up to 12 months.

Date: 9/15/2026
Item No.: 8.

Council Regular Meeting, 9/15/2026, Item No. 8., Item Page 1, Packet Page 107 this matter is not a project. Any subsequent discretionary projects resulting from this action will be assessed for CEQA applicability.

DISCUSSION:

Background
The City of Monterey approved the Ocean View Plaza Project (“Project”) located at 457, 465, 470, 484, 565, and 570 Cannery Row in June 2004. Subsequently, the City of Monterey requested that the Local Agency Formation Commission (LAFCO) review the establishment of a Community Services District (CSD) for the project site that would own, operate, and maintain the proposed desalination plant once constructed.

LAFCO adopted Resolution No. 05-27 on December 27, 2005, approving the formation of this CSD. The Monterey City Council was subsequently appointed as the District Board and must meet quarterly according to requirements of Government Code section 61044.

The project was originally approved on June 1, 2004 and it was valid for two years. Thereafter, a combination of mandatory extensions, statutory extensions, and extensions approved by the City of Monterey, extended the life of the map until June 1, 2025.

Pursuant to an April 2025 request for an extension, on June 17, 2025, the City Council adopted Resolution 25-066, approving a 1-year extension of the map pursuant to Government Code § 66452.6(e). (Attachment 1.) This approval extended the life of the map to June 17, 2026.

The City determined, consistent with Government Code section 66452.6(e), that: (1) a timely application for an extension of the Vesting Tentative Map was not received; (2) the Vesting Tentative Map is expired; and (3) the Use Permit is expired pursuant to Condition of Approval No. 1, which provides that the Use Permit expires on the same date as the Vesting Tentative Map.

Resolution Authorizing Application to Dissolve the Community Services District Given that all of the project entitlements have expired, there is no longer a need for the Community Services District. A Community Service District (CSD) can apply to the Local Agency Formation Commission (LAFCO) for dissolution under California Government Code §56375.1, which authorizes LAFCO to dissolve a district if certain conditions are met and a resolution of intent is adopted.

The process can take up to 12 months. Rough outline of process:

1. Prepare and Submit a Resolution of Application

2. LAFCO 30 Day Review

3. Notice to Affected Agencies

4. Certificate of Filing

5. Public Hearing

6. 30 Day Reconsideration Period

7. Protest Thresholds - If LAFCO approves dissolution, protest thresholds apply under Government Code §57092:
• Election: If >25% of landowners owning ≥25% of assessed value, or >25% of registered voters, oppose the action but <50% oppose it. • Termination: If >50% oppose the action
Council Regular Meeting, 9/15/2026, Item No. 8., Item Page 2, Packet Page 108

8. Certificate of Completion - After meeting all LAFCO conditions, LAFCO files a Certificate of Completion with the County Clerk-Recorder. Dissolution is not effective until this is filed
Staff recommend adoption of a resolution authorizing an application to LAFCO to dissolve the CSD.

A RESOLUTION OF THE OCEAN VIEW COMMUNITY SERVICES DISTRICT №011/24

RESOLUTION OF APPLICATION OF THE OCEAN VIEW COMMUNITY SERVICES

DISTRICT INITIATING APPLICATION TO THE LOCAL AGENCY FORMATION

COMMISSION OF MONTEREY COUNTY FOR THE DISSOLUTION OF THE OCEAN VIEW

COMMUNITY SERVICES DISTRICT
WHEREAS, the Ocean View Community Services District (“District”) was formed in 2005 by the City of Monterey (“City”) by Resolution of Application to the Local Agency Formation Commission of Monterey County (“Commission”), and the City Council of the City of Monterey was subsequently appointed as the District Board of Directors (“Board”); WHEREAS, the approximately 4.27-acre District was formed for the purpose of providing potable water to the Ocean View Plaza Project located at 457, 465, 470, 484, 565, and 570 Cannery Row through a desalination plant that would be owned, operated, and maintained by the District;
WHEREAS, in November 2019, the California Coastal Commission denied requests for coastal development permit extensions (Permit No. 3-08-013), citing changed circumstances from its original coastal development permit issued in 2008 related to water supply and coastal hazards/sea level rise;
WHEREAS, the Project’s vesting tentative map that, under Government Code section 65943, secures the right to proceed with development in substantial compliance with City ordinances, policies, and standards, expired on June 17, 2026; WHEREAS, the County of Monterey Board of Supervisors passed an ordinance amending Chapter 10.72 of the Monterey County Code to remove the long-standing prohibition on private ownership or operation of desalination treatment facilities; WHEREAS, during its existence, the District has not initiated or completed any projects, and has no physical assets or employees, and the District has not provided services since its formation;
WHEREAS, the District desires to initiate proceedings pursuant to the Cortese-KnoxHertzberg Local Government Reorganization Act of 2000, Division 3, commencing with Section 56000 of the California Government Code, for dissolution of the District; WHEREAS, the City of Monterey determined that the proposed action is not a project as defined by the California Environmental Quality Act (CEQA)(CCR, Title 14, Chapter 3 (“CEQA Guidelines), Article 20, Section 15378). In addition, CEQA Guidelines Section 15061 includes the general rule that CEQA applies only to activities which have the potential for causing a significant effect on the environment. Where it can be seen with certainty that there is no possibility that the activity in question may have a significant effect on the environment, the activity is not subject to CEQA. Because the proposed action and this matter have no potential to cause any effect on the environment, or because it falls within a category of activities excluded as projects pursuant to CEQA Guidelines section 15378, this matter is not a project.

Council Regular Meeting, 9/15/2026, Item No. 8., Item Page 4, Packet Page 110 Because the matter does not cause a direct or any reasonably foreseeable indirect physical change on or in the environment, this matter is not a project. Any subsequent discretionary projects resulting from this action will be assessed for CEQA applicability;

NOW, THEREFORE, BE IT RESOLVED BY THE OCEAN VIEW COMMUNITY SERVICES DISTRICT BOARD OF DIRECTORS, that the above recitals are true and correct and are hereby incorporated and adopted as findings of the Board as if fully set forth herein.

NOW, THEREFORE, BE IT FURTHER RESOLVED BY THE BOARD OF DIRECTORS OF THE DISTRICT that it hereby approves and adopts this Resolution of Application requesting the dissolution of the Ocean View Community Services District, and directs City of Monterey staff to transmit this Resolution to the Monterey City Council for further proceedings as required by law, and authorize the City Council or designees to execute any documents necessary to complete the filing of this application and to cooperate fully with the Commission in the dissolution process.

Agenda Report
№12/25
FROM: Andrea Renny, Public Works Director
Prepared By: Anrew Easterling, City Engineer
SUBJECT: 1st Reading to Amend Monterey City Code section 19-103, the Schedule of Fees and Services Charges, to Reduce the Amount of the City’s Cost Recovery for Specific Encroachment Permit and Inspection Fees to less than 100% (Not a Project Under CEQA per Article 20, Section 15378 and Under General Rule Article 5, Section 15061)
RECOMMENDATION:

That the City Council pass a first reading of an
ordinance to amend Monterey City Code section 19-
103 to reduce the amount of cost recovery for the
following permits:
1) Street Opening Fee (Sewer Lateral) from 100% to
70%;
2) Minor Permanent Encroachment (<100SF) from
100% to 50%;
3) Driveway or Sidewalk Encroachment Fee from 100%
to 70%;
4) Traffic Control Fee from 100% to 50%; and
5) Sidewalk Maintenance and Repairs from 100% to
50%.

VALUE DRIVERS:

Serve as stewards of the City’s financial resources
through sound economic vitality efforts, streamlining operations, reasonable revenue enhancements, visionary long-term planning, fiscal transparency, and community partnerships.

POLICY IMPLICATIONS:

The City’s current policy is to recover 100% of costs for encroachment permit and inspection fees, and this action will reduce the City’s cost recovery to 70% or 50% for five (5) specific categories. The proposed fee reductions establish a cost-sharing approach for these encroachment categories which may provide some broader community benefit. Applicants would continue to pay a substantial portion of the City's cost.

CAMPAIGN DISCLOSURE REQUIREMENT (LEVINE ACT) APPLIES: No.

FISCAL IMPLICATIONS:

The current cost for a Street Opening Fee with Sewer Connection is $1,613 and the proposed Agenda Report Highlights
• The report requests City Council
approval of a first reading to
amend City Code section 19-103,
reducing cost-recovery levels for
five encroachment-related permit
categories.
• The proposed reductions (to 70%
or 50% recovery) create a
cost-sharing model with applicants
• The changes are estimated to
result in roughly $192,000 in
annual General Fund subsidies
based on recent permit activity.

Date: 9/15/2026
Item No.: 9.

Council Regular Meeting, 9/15/2026, Item No. 9., Item Page 1, Packet Page 112 №12/25
rate for Street Opening Fee (Sewer Lateral) is $1,183. There were approximately 66 permits issued in the last 12 months for sewer laterals, and a 70% cost recovery rate would require approximately $33,462 in General Fund subsidies per year.

The current cost for a permanent encroachment is $2,359.50. This is a new encroachment permit category for Minor Permanent Encroachment (<100SF) with a proposed rate of $416 with a 50% cost recovery rate. There were approximately 177 permanent encroachment permits issued in the last 12 months that may qualify for this new category. A 50% cost recovery rate requires approximately $73,632 in General Fund subsidies per year.

The current cost for a Driveway or Sidewalk Encroachment Fee is $1,009 and the proposed rate is $746. There were 58 permits issued in the last 12 months, and a 70% cost recovery rate would require approximately $18,543 in General Fund subsidies per year.

The current cost for Traffic Control Fee is $404 and the proposed rate is $201. Staff estimates that 270 permits issued in the last 12 months with a traffic control fee and a 50% cost recovery rate would require approximately $54,450 in General Fund subsidies per year.

The current cost for Sidewalk Maintenance and Repairs is $389 and the proposed rate is $230.

This is a relatively new category, and data is not available for the past 12 months. If a rate of 1 sidewalk maintenance and repair permit is issued per week is assumed, or 52 permits in a year, a 50% cost recover rate would require approximately $11,960 in General Fund subsidies per year.

The cumulative impact to the General Fund if all of the reduced cost recovery rates are adopted would be estimated to be approximately $192,048 per year.

ENVIRONMENTAL DETERMINATION:

The City of Monterey determined that the proposed action is not a project as defined by the California Environmental Quality Act (CEQA) (CCR, Title 14, Chapter 3 (CEQA Guidelines), Article 20, Section 15378). In addition, CEQA Guidelines Section 15061 includes the general Council Regular Meeting, 9/15/2026, Item No. 9., Item Page 2, Packet Page 113 №12/25
rule that CEQA applies only to activities which have the potential for causing a significant effect on the environment. Where it can be seen with certainty that there is no possibility that the activity in question may have a significant effect on the environment, the activity is not subject to CEQA. Because the proposed action and this matter have no potential to cause any effect on the environment, or because it falls within a category of activities excluded as projects pursuant to CEQA Guidelines section 15378, this matter is not a project. Because the matter does not cause a direct or any reasonably foreseeable indirect physical change on or in the environment, this matter is not a project. Any subsequent discretionary projects resulting from this action will be assessed for CEQA applicability.

ALTERNATIVES CONSIDERED:

The Council could choose to subsidize a different percentage of the cost of any of the encroachment categories instead of 70% or 50% cost recovery policy. The Council could choose to only subsidize some or none of the proposed encroachment categories.

DISCUSSION:

Monterey City Code section 19-103 establishes the City's Schedule of Fees and Services Charges and the applicable level of cost recovery for City services. The existing policy generally establishes 100% cost recovery for encroachment permits and inspection fee services addressed by this ordinance.

Full cost recovery is an appropriate objective for many City services that primarily provide a benefit to an individual applicant. However, certain encroachment, sanitary sewer, and right-ofway activities also provide a broader benefit to the community and environment. In these circumstances, sharing a portion of the cost between the permit applicant and the City may be appropriate.

Street Opening Fee – Sewer Laterals
The proposed ordinance would reduce cost recovery for street openings associated with sewer lateral work from 100% to 70%. Sewer lateral repairs and replacements are necessary to maintain reliable sanitary sewer connections and may require excavation and restoration of the public street. A 70% cost recovery rate would continue to recover the majority of the City's costs while encouraging property owners to properly maintain their private sewer connections. A properly maintained sewer connection reduces the likelihood of sanitary sewer spills and provides an environmental and public benefit.

Minor Permanent Encroachments (<100 SF)
The proposed ordinance would establish 50% cost recovery for minor permanent encroachments involving less than 100 square feet. These projects may include small signs, benches, landscaping, minor hardscape or other improvements in the public right of way.

Private improvements in the right of way can provide a public benefit and a subsidized rate could be justified.

Driveway or Sidewalk Encroachment Fee
The proposed ordinance would reduce cost recovery for driveway or sidewalk encroachments from 100% to 70%. Driveway and sidewalk improvements are privately maintained improvements but also contribute to the pedestrian sidewalk network within the public right-ofway. When driveways and sidewalks are replaced or rehabilitated, they are brought to current Council Regular Meeting, 9/15/2026, Item No. 9., Item Page 3, Packet Page 114 №12/25
ADA accessibility standards and provide a public benefit. The proposed rate recognizes this shared benefit while continuing to recover the majority of the City's costs.

Traffic Control Fee
The proposed ordinance would reduce cost recovery for traffic control review from 100% to 50%. Traffic control requirements protect workers, motorists, pedestrians, bicyclists, and other road users of the public right-of-way. Although traffic control review is generated by the applicant's work, ensuring safe and appropriate traffic control provides a broader public safety benefit. A 50% cost recovery rate recognizes this shared benefit.

Sidewalk Maintenance and Repairs
The proposed ordinance would reduce cost recovery for sidewalk maintenance and repair permits from 100% to 50%. Maintaining sidewalks in good condition benefits both adjacent property owners and the general public by reducing hazards, and maintaining the pedestrian infrastructure. Reducing the permit cost associated with sidewalk repairs may also remove a financial disincentive for property owners to promptly correct sidewalk deficiencies. A 50% cost recovery rate balances the City's cost of administering and inspecting the work against the broader public benefit of maintaining safe and accessible sidewalks.

Collectively, the proposed amendments establish a cost-sharing approach for these five (5) categories. Applicants would continue to pay a substantial portion of the City's cost to review, administer, and inspect their work, and the City would subsidize the remaining portion of the service that reflects a broader community benefit.

AN ORDINANCE OF THE COUNCIL OF THE CITY OF MONTEREY
№09/24
AMENDING MONTEREY CITY CODE SECTION 19-103, THE SCHEDULE OF FEES AND SERVICES CHARGES, TO REDUCE THE AMOUNT OF THE CITY’S COST

RECOVERY FOR SPECIFIC ENCROACHMENT PERMIT AND INSPECTION FEES TO LESS THAN 100%
SECTION 1:

WHEREAS, generally, the City’s current policy is to recover 100% of costs for encroachment permit and inspection fees;
WHEREAS, the proposed fee reductions establish a cost-sharing approach for these encroachment categories which may provide some broader community benefit; WHEREAS, applicants would continue to pay a substantial portion of the City's cost; and WHEREAS, the City of Monterey determined that the proposed action is not a project as defined by the California Environmental Quality Act (CEQA) (CCR, Title 14, Chapter 3 (“CEQA Guidelines), Article 20, Section 15378). In addition, CEQA Guidelines Section 15061 includes the general rule that CEQA applies only to activities which have the potential for causing a significant effect on the environment. Where it can be seen with certainty that there is no possibility that the activity in question may have a significant effect on the environment, the activity is not subject to CEQA. Because the proposed action and this matter have no potential to cause any effect on the environment, or because it falls within a category of activities excluded as projects pursuant to CEQA Guidelines section 15378, this matter is not a project.

Because the matter does not cause a direct or any reasonably foreseeable indirect physical change on or in the environment, this matter is not a project. Any subsequent discretionary projects resulting from this action will be assessed for CEQA applicability; NOW THEREFORE, the Monterey City Council declares as follows:

SECTION 2: The above recitals are true and correct and are hereby incorporated and adopted as findings of the City Council as if fully set forth herein.

SECTION 3: Monterey City Code, Chapter 19, Section 19-103(a)’s table of fees and service charges, (I.) is hereby amended as follows:

Agenda Report
№12/25
FROM: Andrea Renny, Public Works Director
Prepared By: Andrew Easterling, City Engineer
SUBJECT: Amend Resolution 26-071 to Include Fees for New Encroachment Permit and Inspection Categories, Update Descriptions, Reduce Five Categories of Encroachment Fees to Reflect City Cost-Sharing, and Revise Subpoena Fee (Not a Project Under CEQA per Article 20, Section 15378 and Under General Rule Article 5, Section 15061)
RECOMMENDATION:

That the City Council adopt the attached resolution:
1) Amending Resolution 26-071 to include:
a. Temporary Pod, Dumpster, minor sidewalk or
parking area temporary encroachment;
b. Minor Permanent Encroachment (<100SF);
and,
c. Traffic Signal Flash Operations as referenced
in Exhibit A;
2) Updating Encroachment Permit and Inspection
Descriptions and Fees; and,
3) Updating Public Safety – Police Subpoenas Fee as
referenced in Exhibit B.

VALUE DRIVERS:

Serve as stewards of the City’s financial resources
through sound economic vitality efforts, streamlining
operations, reasonable revenue enhancements,
visionary long-term planning, fiscal transparency, and
community partnerships.

POLICY IMPLICATIONS:

Proposition 26 applies only to fees that are “imposed” by government. Determining whether a charge is “imposed” turns on the nature of the service and other factors, such as: whether the charge is in connection with a service that the city is statutorily obligated to provide; whether the charge is in connection with a service for which the city is the exclusive provider within its service territory; whether the charge is in connection with a service, product, or opportunity the city provides in competition with other, particularly private enterprises: or whether the charge is established by voluntary negotiations. (League of Cal. Cities, Proposition 26 and 218 Implementation Guide (2021), at p. 58.)
For fees that are subject to Proposition 26, the City bears the burden of proving by a Agenda Report Highlights
• The report asks City Council to
amend Resolution 26-071 by
adding new encroachment permit
categories, updating permit
descriptions and fees, and
revising the Police subpoena fee.
• New categories refine temporary
and minor encroachment fees and
establish a dedicated fee for traffic
signal flash operations to better
align staff effort with permit type.
• Five encroachment categories are
proposed at reduced
cost-recovery rates to reflect
shared public benefit, resulting in
an estimated $192,000 in annual
General Fund subsidies.

Date: 9/15/2026
Item No.: 10.

Council Regular Meeting, 9/15/2026, Item No. 10., Item Page 1, Packet Page 118 №12/25
preponderance of the evidence that the fee is not a tax, that the amount is no more than necessary to cover the reasonable cost of the governmental activity, and that the manner in which those costs are allocated to a payor bear a fair or reasonable relationship to the payor’s burdens on, or benefits received from, the governmental activity. (Cal. Const., Art. XIII C §1, subd. (e); League of Cal. Cities, Proposition 26 and 218 Implementation Guide (2021).) This means that all revenue sources are taxes requiring voting approval unless an exception applies.

It is good fiscal and budget policy to update as needed the City’s fee schedules to ensure that the fees charged to citizens are in alignment with the cost of services provided to the citizens of Monterey.

CAMPAIGN DISCLOSURE REQUIREMENT (LEVINE ACT) APPLIES: No.

FISCAL IMPLICATIONS:

All but five (5) of the encroachment permit and inspection categories are being recommended at full cost recovery. There is no impact to the General Fund other than the Street Opening Fee (Sewer Lateral), Minor Permanent Encroachment (<100SF), Driveway or Sidewalk Encroachment Fee, Traffic Control Fee, and Sidewalk Maintenance and Repairs.

The full cost for a Street Opening Fee with Sewer Connection is $1,613 and the proposed rate for Street Opening Fee (Sewer Lateral) is $1,183. There were approximately 66 permits issued in the last 12 months for sewer laterals and a 70% cost recover rate would require approximately $33,462 in General Fund subsidies per year.

The full cost for a permanent encroachment is $2,359.50. This is a new encroachment permit category for Minor Permanent Encroachment (<100SF) with a proposed rate of $416 with a 50% cost recovery rate. There were approximately 177 permanent encroachment permits issued in the last 12 months that may qualify for this new category. A 50% cost recovery rate requires approximately $73,632 in General Fund subsidies per year.

The full cost for a Driveway or Sidewalk Encroachment Fee is $1,009 and the proposed rate is $746. There were 58 permits issued in the last 12 months and a 70% cost recover rate would require approximately $18,543 in General Fund subsidies per year.

The full cost for the Traffic Control Fee is $404 and the proposed rate is $201. Staff estimates that there were 270 permits issued in the last 12 months with a traffic control fee and a 50% cost recover rate would require approximately $54,450 in General Fund subsidies per year.

The full cost for Sidewalk Maintenance and Repairs is $389 and the proposed rate is $230. This is a relatively new category, and data is not available for the past 12 months. If a rate of 1 sidewalk maintenance and repair permit is issued per week is assumed, or 52 permits in a year, a 50% cost recover rate would require approximately $11,960 in General Fund subsidies per year.

The cumulative impact to the General Fund if all of the reduced cost recovery rates are adopted would be estimated to be approximately $192,048 per year.

ENVIRONMENTAL DETERMINATION:

The City of Monterey determined that the proposed action is not a project as defined by the California Environmental Quality Act (CEQA) (CCR, Title 14, Chapter 3 (CEQA Guidelines), Article 20, Section 15378). In addition, CEQA Guidelines Section 15061 includes the general rule that CEQA applies only to activities which have the potential for causing a significant effect on the environment. Where it can be seen with certainty that there is no possibility that the activity in question may have a significant effect on the environment, the activity is not subject to CEQA. Because the proposed action and this matter have no potential to cause any effect on the environment, or because it falls within a category of activities excluded as projects pursuant to CEQA Guidelines section 15378, this matter is not a project. Because the matter does not cause a direct or any reasonably foreseeable indirect physical change on or in the environment, this matter is not a project. Any subsequent discretionary projects resulting from this action will be assessed for CEQA applicability.

ALTERNATIVES CONSIDERED:

The Council could choose not to approve these new additional encroachment permit and inspection fee categories, update descriptions, or reduce some fees to reflect City cost-sharing.

However this is not recommended, the new fee categories separate smaller projects that may require less staff review and administrative effort into new categories, rather than applying the same fee to both minor and complex encroachments. Additionally, the updated descriptions organizes several fees to improve clarity and consistency, and the updated fees account for additional staff time not previously considered.

Additionally, the Council could choose to subsidize a different percentage of the cost of any of the encroachment categories instead of 70% or 50% cost recovery policy. The Council could choose to only subsidize some or none of the proposed encroachment categories.

Council Regular Meeting, 9/15/2026, Item No. 10., Item Page 3, Packet Page 120 №12/25
DISCUSSION:

On Tuesday May 19, 2026 City Council approved a Resolution adopting the Citywide Master Fee Schedule. All Encroachment Permit Fees were updated to recover the full cost to provide the service based on the estimated hours required to review, process and inspect the typical encroachment permit project for each category. Many encroachment fees had a relatively large increase proportional to the existing fee. Implementation of the new fees highlighted that the temporary and permanent encroachment categories were broad and grouped complex projects with less complex applications. In response to public questions and concerns, staff reviewed the fee schedule, application categories, and associated staff hours. Based on this review, staff identified opportunities to establish additional categories where practical to better align fees with the level of review and administrative effort required including:
• Temporary pods, dumpsters, and minor temporary sidewalk or parking area encroachments;
• Minor permanent encroachments of less than 100 square feet; and • Traffic signal flash operations.

Examples of temporary encroachment applications may include utility company temporary encroachments for tree trimming or overhead utility work, temporary lane closures for survey, inspections or other field crews, pods, dumpsters, scaffolding, temporary decorations.

Temporary Pod, Dumpster, minor sidewalk and parking area temporary encroachments typically do not require the same level of temporary traffic control and detour routes and may require less staff review and administration time to process, supporting a reduced rate.

Permanent encroachment applications range from minor improvements, such as small signs, landscaping, and small areas of hardscape, to complex projects involving major utility work or right-of-way improvements, such as roundabouts or other off-site improvements. Staff recommends establishing a new category for minor permanent encroachments of less than 100 square feet. This category would provide a lower fee for smaller projects that require less staff review and administrative effort, rather than applying the same fee to both minor and complex encroachments.

Staff also recommends establishing a separate fee for traffic signal flash operations in response to recent requests from utility companies. Certain encroachment permits require temporary traffic control that involves placing traffic signals into flash operations during construction. The proposed fee covers the estimated two hours of inspector time to place the signal into flash and return it to normal operation upon completion of work.

In addition, Staff recommends changes to the descriptions and organization of several fees to improve clarity and consistency. Encroachment Permit Fees appear in both the Community Development Building Permits and Inspections Fees and the Public Works and Engineering Fees Sections. Staff recommends consolidating both the Encroachment Permit fees into the Public Works and Engineering Fees Section and eliminating the Community Development Building Permits Encroachment Permit Fees as shown in Exhibit A to the Resolution .

Additionally, the Sidewalk Maintenance and Repairs fee was added to the Public Works Engineering fee schedule during the last update. Staff proposes moving this fee to the Building Permits & Inspection Fee schedule to be grouped with the Encroachment Permit Fees to improve organization and consistency. In addition, the Street Opening Fee with Sewer Connection would be renamed to Street Opening Fee (Sewer Lateral) to more accurately describe the work covered, as not all sewer lateral projects require connection to the sewer main.

Council Regular Meeting, 9/15/2026, Item No. 10., Item Page 4, Packet Page 121 №12/25
Staff also reviewed the estimated staff hours used to calculate the encroachment permit and inspection fees and identified activities that were not included in the previous fee update. The proposed fee schedule incorporates these additional costs, including:
• Encroachment permits: An additional 0.5 hours of Administrative Assistant time to process and manage each application.
• Street Opening Fee (Sewer Lateral): One hour of time for a Senior Street Maintenance Worker, one hour for a Street Maintenance Worker, and use of a City truck to hydro-jet the sewer main and conduct a pressure test following a new or replaced sewer connection.

These adjustments reflect staff time and resources identified through the post-implementation review of the fee schedule.

Five (5) of the encroachment permit and inspection categories are recommended at a rate less than full cost to the City to review, administer and inspect. Full cost recovery is an appropriate objective for many City services that primarily provide a benefit to an individual applicant.

However, certain encroachment, sanitary sewer, and right-of-way activities also provide a broader benefit to the community and environment. In these circumstances, sharing a portion of the cost between the permit applicant and the City may be appropriate.

The proposed rate would reduce cost recovery for street openings associated with sewer lateral work from 100% to 70%. Sewer lateral repairs and replacements are necessary to maintain reliable sanitary sewer connections and may require excavation and restoration of the public street. A 70% cost recovery rate would continue to recover the majority of the City's costs while encouraging property owners to properly maintain their private sewer connections. A properly maintained sewer connection reduces the likelihood of sanitary sewer spills and provides an environmental and public benefit.

The proposed rate would establish 50% cost recovery for minor permanent encroachments involving less than 100 square feet. These projects may include small signs, benches, landscaping, minor hardscape or other improvements in the public right of way. Private improvements in the right of way can provide a public benefit and a subsidized rate could be justified.

The proposed rate would reduce cost recovery for driveway or sidewalk encroachments from 100% to 70%. Driveway and sidewalk improvements are privately maintained improvements but also contribute to the pedestrian sidewalk network within the public right-of-way. When driveways and sidewalks are replaced or rehabilitated, they are brought to current ADA accessibility standards and provide a public benefit. The proposed rate recognizes this shared benefit while continuing to recover the majority of the City's costs.

The proposed rate would reduce cost recovery for traffic control review from 100% to 50%.

Traffic control requirements protect workers, motorists, pedestrians, bicyclists, and other road users of the public right-of-way. Although traffic control review is generated by the applicant's work, ensuring safe and appropriate traffic control provides a broader public safety benefit. A 50% cost recovery rate recognizes this shared benefit.

The proposed rate would reduce cost recovery for sidewalk maintenance and repair permits from 100% to 50%. Maintaining sidewalks in good condition benefits both adjacent property owners and the general public by reducing hazards, and maintaining the pedestrian Council Regular Meeting, 9/15/2026, Item No. 10., Item Page 5, Packet Page 122 №12/25
infrastructure. Reducing the permit cost associated with sidewalk repairs may also remove a financial disincentive for property owners to promptly correct sidewalk deficiencies. A 50% cost recovery rate balances the City's cost of administering and inspecting the work against the broader public benefit of maintaining safe and accessible sidewalks.

Collectively, the proposed amendments establish a cost-sharing approach for these five (5) categories. Applicants would continue to pay a substantial portion of the City's cost to review, administer, and inspect their work, and the City would subsidize the remaining portion of the service that reflects a broader community benefit.

Staff recommends updating the Police subpoenas fee from the current $150 charge to a fee consistent with applicable State law.

AMENDING RESOLUTION 26-071 TO INCLUDE FEES FOR NEW ENCROACHMENT

PERMIT AND INSPECTION CATEGORIES, UPDATE DESCRIPTIONS, REDUCE FIVE

CATEGORIES OF ENCROACHMENT FEES TO REFLECT CITY COST SHARING, AND

REVISE SUBPOENA FEE
WHEREAS, on May 19, 2026, the City Council adopted Resolution No. 26-071 establishing the Citywide Master Fee Schedule, including fees associated with encroachment permits and inspections;
WHEREAS, the fees established were based on the estimated cost to the City of providing the applicable services, including staff review, administration, inspection, and other associated activities;
WHEREAS, following implementation of the updated fee schedule, City staff reviewed the encroachment permit and inspection categories and determined that certain categories encompass activities with substantially different levels of staff review, and administration; WHEREAS, staff recommends additional permit categories for less complex activities to better align the applicable fees with the estimated City resources required to provide those services;
WHEREAS, after implementation, staff identified additional administrative, inspection, equipment, and field activities associated with permits that were not fully captured in the assumptions used for the May 2026 fee update, and the revised cost-of-service calculations incorporate those activities;
WHEREAS, this action corrects the fee for processing subpoenas to the amount authorized under state law;
WHEREAS, Encroachment Permit Fees appear in both the Community Development Building Permits and Inspections Fees and the Public Works and Engineering Fees Sections.

This action consolidates the Encroachment Permit fees into the Public Works and Engineering Fees Section and eliminates the Community Development Building Permits Encroachment Permit Fees. Additionally, the Sidewalk Maintenance and Repairs fee was added to the Public Works Engineering fee schedule during the last update; and, WHEREAS, the City of Monterey determined that the proposed action is not a project as defined by the California Environmental Quality Act (CEQA)(CCR, Title 14, Chapter 3 (“CEQA Guidelines”), Article 20, Section 15378). In addition, CEQA Guidelines Section 15061 includes the general rule that CEQA applies only to activities that have the potential for causing a significant effect on the environment. Where it can be seen with certainty that there is no 2 possibility that the activity in question may have a significant effect on the environment, the activity is not subject to CEQA. Because the proposed action and this matter have no potential to cause any effect on the environment, or because it falls within a category of activities excluded as projects pursuant to CEQA Guidelines section 15378, this matter is not a project.

Because the matter does not cause a direct or any reasonably foreseeable indirect physical Council Regular Meeting, 9/15/2026, Item No. 10., Item Page 7, Packet Page 124 change on or in the environment, this matter is not a project. Any subsequent discretionary projects resulting from this action will be assessed for CEQA applicability;

sidewalk defects adjacent to
private property, improving safety
and accessibility.
• The contract provides up to $1
million annually for inspection,
surveying, and minor repairs,
funded entirely by Measure S.

Date: 9/15/2026
Item No.: 11.

Council Regular Meeting, 9/15/2026, Item No. 11., Item Page 1, Packet Page 129 №12/25
Expand opportunities for people of all ages and abilities to bike and walk safely through active transportation, accessibility, and safety initiatives.

POLICY IMPLICATIONS:

The City’s current sidewalk repair policy stems from a State law that was enacted in 1935.

Specifically, California Streets and Highways Code section 5600 et seq. provides that the responsibility for maintenance of sidewalks rests on the abutting property owner, regardless of who created the sidewalk defects.

The City of Monterey first enacted Ordinance 989 in 1955 pursuant to the Streets and Highways Code to help offset the cost of repair to and maintenance of worn out, damaged, or defective sidewalks.

In 1993, the City adopted Ordinance 3127 to include private property owner liability for injuries to the public due to unsafe sidewalk conditions. Sidewalk liability ordinances “provide [ ] an additional level of responsibility for the maintenance of safe sidewalks on the owners whose property is adjacent to and abuts the sidewalks”… Property owners “…are often in the best position to quickly identify and address potentially dangerous conditions that might occur on the sidewalks as opposed to [the city].” (Gonzales v. City of San Jose (2004) 125 Cal.App.4th 1127.)
This action is consistent with the City’s policy to approve Public Works contracts exceeding $150,000 and to approve all budget amendments.

This action is also consistent with the City Council Value Driver to maintain and repair core street, roadway, and storm drain infrastructure.

CAMPAIGN DISCLOSURE REQUIREMENT (LEVINE ACT) APPLIES: No.

FISCAL IMPLICATIONS:

The Minor Sidewalk Repair Pilot Program will be funded for three years with available Measure S funds, subject to available fund balance. Eligible costs may include field verification, concrete slicing or grinding, mobilization, traffic control, inspection, data tracking, clean up, disposal of waste materials and ancillary items.

Monterey City Code section 28-14(a) allows for an exemption from formal bidding requirements in cases where the contract or purchase is capable of being performed through contracts negotiated by a cooperative purchasing agency that utilized acceptable bidding procedures (“piggyback” agreements). The award of this Job Order contract utilizes an accepted “piggyback” option from the Texas Association of School Boards, Inc. (Contract #756-24) through Buy Board Purchasing Cooperative, approved by the Finance Director, or her designee, on September 3, 2026.

Appropriations:

Measure S Capital Outlay (252-310-3121-0000-4505) $ 500,000 Measure S Contractual Services (252-310-3121-0000-4220) $ 500,000 Total $ 1,000,000
As of September 2, 2026, sufficient funding is available in the Measure P/S Fund for these appropriations.

Council Regular Meeting, 9/15/2026, Item No. 11., Item Page 2, Packet Page 130 №12/25
Fees for On-Call Sidewalk Inspection and Repair services will be based on a project-by-project basis directly charged to the Measure S Contractual Services and Measure S Capital Outlay accounts. The City is under no obligation to expend any funds under this Job Order contract.

Total award amount for this contract is not to exceed $1,000,000 annually. There is no minimum dollar value of work guaranteed under this Job Order contract, and assignment of work orders is at the sole discretion of the City.

The required appropriations address both work that the City is responsible for as well as the pilot program for minor repairs. The Job Order Contract price for concrete slicing is $54 per inch-foot. Staff estimates that there are roughly 2,500 locations with known defects and likely more locations that may be requested once the pilot program becomes available. The current estimate to repair the known locations is approximately $280,000 and it's unknown how many new locations may be requested. Staff suggests utilizing $500,000 of Measure S funding for the Minor Sidewalk Repair Pilot Program each year, for three years.

ENVIRONMENTAL DETERMINATION:

The City of Monterey Planning Office determined the project is exempt from the California Environmental Quality Act (CEQA) Guidelines (Article 19, Section 15301, Class 1) because the project would be for repairs of existing sidewalks using a saw-cutting method, which horizontally slices the trip hazard away and matches the sidewalks at the control joint or cracks. All work is within the public right-of-way and there will be no creation of new lanes. Furthermore, the project does not qualify for any of the exceptions to the categorical exemptions founds at CEQA Guidelines Section 15300.2.

Exception a - Location. Classes 3, 4, 5, 6, and 11 are qualified by consideration of where the project is to be located -a project that is ordinarily insignificant in its impact on the environment may in a particularly sensitive environment be significant. Therefore, these classes are considered to apply in all instances, except where the project may impact on an environmental resource of hazardous or critical concern where designated, precisely mapped, and officially adopted pursuant to law by federal, state, or local agencies. Exception a – Location – does not apply to projects which are exempt under Class 1.

Exception b - Cumulative Impact. All exemptions for these classes are inapplicable when the cumulative impact of successive projects of the same type in the same place, over time is significant. There would be no cumulative impact because the project does not involve the creation of additional automobile lanes.

Exception c - Significant Effect. A categorical exemption shall not be used for an activity where there is a reasonable possibility that the activity will have a significant effect on the environment due to unusual circumstances. No unusual circumstances are anticipated due to improvements’ limited scope and distinct locations.

Exception d - Scenic Highways. A categorical exemption shall not be used for a project which may result in damage to scenic resources, including but not limited to, trees, historic buildings, rock outcroppings, or similar resources, within a highway officially designated as a state scenic highway. This does not apply to improvements which are required as mitigation by an adopted negative declaration or certified Environmental Impact Report (EIR). The project would not be visible from a scenic highway.

Exception e - Hazardous Waste Sites. A categorical exemption shall not be used for a project Council Regular Meeting, 9/15/2026, Item No. 11., Item Page 3, Packet Page 131 №12/25
located on a site which is included on any list compiled pursuant to Section 65962.5 of the Government Code. No impact to sites included on any list compiled pursuant to Section 65962.5 of the Government code would occur.

Exception f - Historical Resources. A categorical exemption shall not be used for a project which may cause a substantial adverse change in the significance of a historical resource. The project is located in the area of high archeological sensitivity as shown in the General Plan. Project improvements would be located within the public right-of-way and would not include digging into native soil. Therefore, the project would not have an impact on historic or archeological resources.

ALTERNATIVES CONSIDERED:

Council could choose to not approve the Minor Sidewalk Repair Pilot Program as proposed and/or amend the program.

Alternative 2 (presented on September 1st, 2026) which is a potential City/property owner shared cost structure for major repairs, is not included in this action. Consistent with Council direction received at the September 1st, 2026 meeting, staff will evaluate that option and return in December 2026.

Council could also choose not to award the piggyback contract and direct staff to advertise the project for bids. This is not recommended, as the proposed piggyback contract allows for more efficient completion of minor sidewalk repairs.

DISCUSSION:

Since the inception of Measures P and S, the City has invested more than $7.5 million in sidewalk repairs, including repairs adjacent to public facilities and repairs associated with City trees. The City has completed 7 phases of sidewalk projects. Additionally, the City has completed approximately 4,059 spot repairs by slicing or grouting defects. Establishing a new pilot sidewalk assistance program will expand the benefit of Measure S funding to eligible minor sidewalk defects adjacent to private properties. However, the legal obligation of property owners to maintain and repair their abutting sidewalks and be responsible for personal injuries suffered by the public due to unsafe conditions remains in effect. The City will continue its sidewalk inspection and repair program and require property owners to make repairs as provided in the City Code.

On September 1, 2026, staff presented two alternatives for a three-year sidewalk assistance pilot program funded by Measure S. Council directed staff to proceed with Alternative 1, a Minor Sidewalk Repair Pilot Program, and to explore Alternative 2, a shared cost structure for major repairs, for a later Council item. The recommended action implements the first part of that direction.

Insufficient time is available to prepare a thorough program for a major sidewalk repair cost sharing program framework for consideration by this meeting. Therefore, staff recommends that the Council approve the Minor Sidewalk Repair Pilot Program and direct staff to return with program framework recommendations on the second Council meeting in December, or another specified future date. This approach would demonstrate a commitment to exploring a major repair program without prematurely determining its eligibility requirements, cost-sharing structure, funding level, or administrative procedures.

Council Regular Meeting, 9/15/2026, Item No. 11., Item Page 4, Packet Page 132 №12/25
Minor Repair Program
This three-year pilot program utilizes Measure S funds to correct eligible minor sidewalk defects adjacent to private property through slicing, grinding, or similar cost-effective treatments, addressing a relatively large number of minor defects at a lower cost.

Types of minor repair methods that will be covered under this pilot program:
• Horizontal saw cutting or slicing of raised sidewalk edges. • Grinding of minor vertical offsets.
• Minor surface corrections where the sidewalk panel remains structurally sound. • Minor repairs will generally be limited to locations where the defect can be mitigated without full panel replacement. Public Works will evaluate panel thickness, remaining surface and cross slope, cracking, spalling, settlement, voids, drainage, adjacent curb and gutter, utilities, and the structural integrity of the panel. Slicing or grinding removes the immediate trip edge but may not correct the underlying cause, such as tree-root growth, subgrade movement, or settlement. Full removal and replacement, reconstruction, and other major work remain outside this Minor Sidewalk Repair Pilot Program and continue to be subject to the obligations set forth in City Code section 32- 23 et seq. (Attachment 3.)
Estimate of Minor Repairs
Based on the results of comparable municipal sidewalk programs, an annual Measure S investment goal of $500,000 could reasonably address approximately 4,000 eligible minor sidewalk defects each year through slicing or grinding treatments. Over the proposed three-year pilot, the City would invest up to $1.5 million and could eliminate approximately 12,000 trip hazards citywide, substantially improving pedestrian safety and accessibility while extending the useful life of existing sidewalks and avoiding the significantly higher cost and disruption of full concrete replacement. Actual production would depend on the size and severity of the defects, contractor pricing, mobilization and traffic-control requirements.

Citywide Prioritization
Public Works will maintain an inventory of locations and group work into efficient packages.

Priority is limited to known defects and will be based on, but not limited to, the following factors:
• Pedestrian activity
• Proximity to schools, parks, and community facilities. • Geographic equity and reasonable distribution of work throughout the entire city. • Efficiency, readiness, contractor mobilization, and the ability to bundle nearby eligible locations.

Residents may report locations through the City’s existing service request portals. Staff will inspect and classify each location; a request does not guarantee eligibility or establish repair order. When practical, the City may notify the adjacent owner before work and document completed treatment.

Staff will provide annual information to the Measure P/S Oversight Committee, including expenditures, number and type of repairs, and identified backlog. At the end of the three-year Council Regular Meeting, 9/15/2026, Item No. 11., Item Page 5, Packet Page 133 №12/25
term, or if requested sooner by Council, staff will return with an evaluation and recommendation to extend, modify, or sunset the Minor Sidewalk Repair Pilot Program.

A sustainable pilot program should provide a benefit to residents without creating a long-term obligation that Measure S cannot support. Staff recommends this pilot program be re-evaluated in three years to best align with Measure S fund availability.

This program does not change the existing responsibility of adjacent private property owners for sidewalk maintenance and repair under Monterey City Code Sections 32-24 and 32-25, nor does it amend those provisions.

December 2026 Return on Alternative 2 (Minor Sidewalk Repairs and Cost Sharing for Major Repairs)
Staff will bring forward, at the second Council meeting in December, 2026, a report that separately evaluates a pilot program for major repairs that includes a cost sharing component.

The analysis will address eligibility, City contribution caps, low-income or hardship considerations, prevailing wage, contractor and payment administration, owner participation, annual program capacity, and the effect of Measure S fund availability pending renewal results.

No shared-cost major repair program is authorized by the recommended actions in this report.

Job Order Contract with Precision Concrete Cutting
Since 2023, the Public Works Department has contracted with Precision Concrete Cutting to address minor repairs throughout the City in a timely manner for the sidewalk repairs that were the responsibility of the City. The company pioneered and patented a new technique for repair of uneven sidewalks, or “uplifts.” Precision Concrete Cutting uses a saw-cutting method, which horizontally slices the trip hazard away, and matches the sidewalks at the control joint. This method preserves the existing infrastructure and saves time and money by eliminating the need for removal/replacement of sidewalk panels. In addition to repairs, Precision Concrete Cutting provides sidewalk asset management surveying services to identify and record pedestrian infrastructure issues. The contract scope of work is limited to inspection and concrete cutting.

Precision Concrete Cutting does not provide other major sidewalk repair services.

Monterey City Code section 28-14(a) allows for an exemption from formal bidding requirements in cases where the contract or purchase is capable of being performed through contracts negotiated by a cooperative purchasing agency that utilized acceptable bidding procedures (“piggyback” agreements). The award of this Job Order contract utilizes an accepted “piggyback” option from the Texas Association of School Boards, Inc. (Contract #756-24) through Buy Board Purchasing Cooperative, approved by the Finance Director, or her designee, on September 3, 2026.

The proposed Job Order Contract will allow City Staff to utilize Precision Concrete Cutting to regularly survey City sidewalks and address sidewalk repairs as they arise. The $1 million annual not-to-exceed limit is intended to support the full sidewalk asset management and repair program, including inspection, surveying and property owner notification, repairs to City-owned or City-responsible sidewalks, and eligible repairs through the Minor Sidewalk Repair Pilot Program. Task orders will be charged to the Measure S Contractual Services account for asset management survey services and to the Measure S Capital Outlay account for sidewalk repairs.

Council Regular Meeting, 9/15/2026, Item No. 11., Item Page 6, Packet Page 134 №12/25
The recommended Minor Sidewalk Repair Pilot Program provides a broad public safety benefit at a comparatively low unit cost, allows Measure S funding to reach more locations, and can be implemented without changing the City’s existing sidewalk responsibility framework. It also preserves Council flexibility to consider a separate shared-cost option to address major sidewalk repairs utilizing Measure S funding.

Council directed staff to proceed with Alternative 1, a Minor Sidewalk Repair Pilot Program, and to explore Alternative 2, a shared cost structure for major repairs, for a later Council item; WHEREAS, the Minor Sidewalk Repair Pilot Program utilizes Measure S funds to correct eligible minor sidewalk defects adjacent to private property through slicing, grinding, or similar cost-effective treatments, addressing a relatively large number of minor defects at a lower cost; WHEREAS, priority is limited to known defects and will be based, but not limited to, pedestrian activity; proximity to schools, parks, and community facilities; geographic equity and reasonable distribution of work throughout the entire city; efficiency, readiness, contractor mobilization and the ability to bundle nearby eligible locations; WHEREAS, Staff suggests utilizing $500,000 of Measure S funding for the Minor Sidewalk Repair Pilot Program each year, for three years; WHEREAS, this program does not change the existing responsibility of adjacent private property owners for sidewalk maintenance and repair under Monterey City Code Sections 32-24 and 32-25, nor does it amend those provisions. The legal obligation of property owners to maintain and repair their abutting sidewalks and be responsible for personal injuries suffered by the public due to unsafe conditions remains in effect. The City will continue its sidewalk inspection and repair program and will require repairs to be completed by property owners; WHEREAS, since 2023, the Public Works Department has contracted with Precision Concrete Cutting to address minor repairs throughout the City in a timely manner for the sidewalk repairs that were the responsibility of the City; WHEREAS, Monterey City Code section 28-14(a) allows for an exemption from formal bidding requirements in cases where the contract or purchase is capable of being performed through contracts negotiated by a cooperative purchasing agency that utilized acceptable bidding procedures (“piggyback” agreements). The award of this Job Order contract utilizes an accepted “piggyback” option from the Texas Association of School Boards, Inc. (Contract #756- 24) through Buy Board Purchasing Cooperative, approved by the Finance Director, or her designee, on September 3, 2026;
Council Regular Meeting, 9/15/2026, Item No. 11., Item Page 8, Packet Page 136 WHEREAS, fees for On-Call Sidewalk Inspection and Repair services will be based on a project-by-project basis directly charged to the Measure S Contractual Services and Measure S Capital Outlay accounts. The City is under no obligation to expend any funds under this Job Order contract;
WHEREAS, the required appropriations address both work that city is responsible for as well as the pilot program for minor repairs;
WHEREAS, as of September 2, 2026, sufficient funding is available in the Measure P/S Fund for these appropriations; and,
WHEREAS, the City of Monterey Planning Office determined the project is exempt from the California Environmental Quality Act (CEQA) Guidelines (Article 19, Section 15301, Class 1) because the project would be for repairs of existing sidewalks using a saw-cutting method, which horizontally slices the trip hazard away and matches the sidewalks at the control joint or cracks. All work is within the public right-of-way and there will be no creation of new lanes.

Furthermore, the project does not qualify for any of the exceptions to the categorical exemptions founds at CEQA Guidelines Section 15300.2.

Exception a - Location. Classes 3, 4, 5, 6, and 11 are qualified by consideration of where the project is to be located -a project that is ordinarily insignificant in its impact on the environment may in a particularly sensitive environment be significant. Therefore, these classes are considered to apply in all instances, except where the project may impact on an environmental resource of hazardous or critical concern where designated, precisely mapped, and officially adopted pursuant to law by federal, state, or local agencies. Exception a – Location – does not apply to projects which are exempt under Class 1.

Exception b - Cumulative Impact. All exemptions for these classes are inapplicable when the cumulative impact of successive projects of the same type in the same place, over time is significant. There would be no cumulative impact because the project does not involve the creation of additional automobile lanes.

Exception c - Significant Effect. A categorical exemption shall not be used for an activity where there is a reasonable possibility that the activity will have a significant effect on the environment due to unusual circumstances. No unusual circumstances are anticipated due to improvements’ limited scope and distinct locations.

Exception d - Scenic Highways. A categorical exemption shall not be used for a project which may result in damage to scenic resources, including but not limited to, trees, historic buildings, rock outcroppings, or similar resources, within a highway officially designated as a state scenic highway. This does not apply to improvements which are required as mitigation by an adopted negative declaration or certified Environmental Impact Report (EIR). The project would not be visible from a scenic highway.

Exception e - Hazardous Waste Sites. A categorical exemption shall not be used for a project located on a site which is included on any list compiled pursuant to Section 65962.5 of the Government Code. No impact to sites included on any list compiled pursuant to Section 65962.5 of the Government code would occur.

Exception f - Historical Resources. A categorical exemption shall not be used for a project which may cause a substantial adverse change in the significance of a historical resource. The project Council Regular Meeting, 9/15/2026, Item No. 11., Item Page 9, Packet Page 137 is located in the area of high archeological sensitivity as shown in the General Plan. Project improvements would be located within the public right-of-way and would not include digging into native soil. Therefore, the project would not have an impact on historic or archeological resources.

EXHIBIT A

CITY OF MONTEREY
Minor Sidewalk Repair Pilot Program Guidelines

1. Purpose
Improve pedestrian safety and accessibility by correcting eligible minor sidewalk trip hazards throughout the City through cost-effective slicing or grinding treatments funded by Measure S.

2. Term and Funding
Three-year pilot beginning upon Council adoption of this policy. Funding is limited to available Measure S appropriations of $500,000 per year for the duration of three years. The program creates no obligation beyond available funding or the pilot term unless this program is renewed or amended by City Council action.

3. Eligible Locations
Existing public concrete sidewalks within the City of Monterey, including sidewalks adjacent to private property, where the City determines that slicing or grinding treatment is feasible, practical and cost effective. Horizontal concrete saw cutting, slicing and grinding treatments are only feasible where sidewalk uplifts or vertical displacements are compatible with the work.

There is no minimum or maximum offset height eligibility. Eligibility depends on the full site condition and is not established by offset height alone.

5. Ineligible or Major Work
Full panel removal or replacement; non-concrete sidewalks or other unsuitable material (mortared stone, mortared rock, mortared brick, asphaltic concrete, decomposed granite, hardscape, etc.), substantial structural failure, cracking, spalling, settlement, or voids; reconstruction; work that would create an unacceptable slope or compromise panel integrity; private improvements; replacement or resetting of utility covers; and other work determined by Public Works to fall outside the minor-repair scope.

Private walkways, driveways, parking areas and unimproved pathways and other improvements outside the public right of way are not eligible. Private encroachments within the public right of way are not eligible.

6. Cost to Property Owner
The City pays 100% of eligible work selected and delivered under this program. No reimbursement is made for owner-initiated or previously completed work.

7. Requests
Locations may be identified through the City’s current log, inventory, staff observation, or resident service request. Public Works will classify the condition. A request does not guarantee eligibility, priority, funding, or a completion date.

8. Prioritization
Priority is limited to known defects and is based on pedestrian activity; proximity to schools, parks, and community facilities citywide; and efficient bundling or mobilization.

9. Delivery
Work may be performed by City crews or by private contractors. Contracted work will be Council Regular Meeting, 9/15/2026, Item No. 11., Item Page 11, Packet Page 139

EXHIBIT A
delivered through purchasing methods authorized by City policy and contracts approved by Council.

10. Property-Owner Responsibility
The program does not amend or waive Monterey City Code sections 32-24 et seq. or applicable State law. The abutting property owner’s responsibility for sidewalk maintenance, repair, and liability remains in effect as provided in the City Code.

11. Program Controls
The City may prioritize, defer, modify, or temporarily suspend assistance based on technical feasibility, contractor availability, budget, unanticipated events, or other Public Works needs.

The Public Works Director, or their designee, may issue administrative procedures and make non-substantive adjustments consistent with these guidelines and Council direction.

12. Tracking and Evaluation
Public Works will track expenditures, repair counts and types, cost data, and any backlog. Staff will provide annual information to the Measure P/S Oversight Committee and Council and will return at the end of the pilot with a recommendation to extend, modify, or take no action, in which case the program will automatically sunset on September 15, 2029.

• FY 2021-2022 $1,547,601.27
Program income varies based on revenue from the sale of inclusionary properties.

ENVIRONMENTAL DETERMINATION:

The plans are considered categorically excluded under the Federal National Environmental Policy Act (NEPA) guidelines (24 CFR Part 58). The plans are also exempt from the California Environmental Quality Act Guidelines (Article 19, Section 15301, Class 1, 15306, Class 6 and 15326, Class 26) because the projects proposed for funding include the public service grant program, non-profit and City public infrastructure projects (building rehabilitation, sidewalk repairs, and park repairs/improvements), housing preservation (acquisition and rehabilitation) and planning and administration. These are minor projects that involve social service programs and rehabilitation/minor improvements to existing facilities.

Furthermore, the project does not qualify for any of the exceptions to the categorical exemptions found at CEQA Guidelines Section 15300.2.

Exception a - Location. Classes 3, 4, 5, 6, and 11 are qualified by consideration of where the project is to be located - a project that is ordinarily insignificant in its impact on the environment may in a particularly sensitive environment be significant. Therefore, these classes are considered to apply in all instances, except where the project may impact on an environmental resource of hazardous or critical concern where designated, precisely mapped, and officially adopted pursuant to law by federal, state, or local agencies. The proposed action included the public service grant program, non-profit and City public infrastructure projects, housing preservation and planning and administration. The environment is not sensitive as they involved minor projects and social service programs that rehabilitate and improve existing facilities.

Exception b - Cumulative Impact. All exemptions for these classes are inapplicable when the cumulative impact of successive projects of the same type in the same place, over time is significant. The proposed action include the public service grant program, non-profit and City public infrastructure projects, housing preservation and planning and administration. No cumulative impacts were foreseeable.

Exception c - Significant Effect. A categorical exemption shall not be used for an activity where there is a reasonable possibility that the activity will have a significant effect on the environment due to unusual circumstances. The proposed action includes the public service grant program, nonprofit and City public infrastructure projects, housing preservation and planning and administration and no significant effect was anticipated.

Exception d - Scenic Highways. A categorical exemption shall not be used for a project which may result in damage to scenic resources, including but not limited to, trees, historic buildings, rock outcroppings, or similar resources, within a highway officially designated as a state scenic highway. No impacts are anticipated because none of the programs or sites were near a scenic highway.

Council Regular Meeting, 9/15/2026, Item No. 13., Item Page 2, Packet Page 162 №12/25
Exception e - Hazardous Waste Sites. A categorical exemption shall not be used for a project located on a site which is included on any list compiled pursuant to Section 65962.5 of the Government Code. There are no project sites that are listed on any list compiled pursuant to Section 65962.5 of the Government Code.

Exception f - Historical Resources. A categorical exemption shall not be used for a project which may cause a substantial adverse change in the significance of a historical resource. The plans did not reference any sites or locations identified as a historical resource.

ALTERNATIVES CONSIDERED:

The City Council may elect not to approve the CAPER. However, this is not recommended as approval is a requirement for receiving grant funds and maintaining compliance with HUD.

DISCUSSION:

HUD requires submission of a CAPER at the end of each program year for all City programs utilizing CDBG entitlement funds. The CAPER specifically reports on how the City has used CDBG funds in the previous program year to achieve compliance with HUD national objectives.

HUD also requires that the CAPER report on the City’s progress in reaching the goals identified in the City’s Five-Year Consolidated Plan and Annual CDBG Action Plan. The period covered in the attached CAPER is for Fiscal Year 2025-2026 (July 1, 2025 through June 30, 2026).

HUD requires the City to hold two public hearings annually. The City is about to begin its Annual Action Planning and receiving input at this City Council meeting is important prior to undergoing this process.

Notices of the draft FY 2025-2026 CAPER and the September 15, 2026 City Council Public Hearing were published in newspapers of general circulation including: the Monterey Herald on August 27, 2026 and in the Monterey County Weekly on August 27, 2026. On August 27, 2026, the draft CAPER was made available to the public on the City’s website and physical review copies at the following locations:
• Office of the Planning Department, 570 Pacific St., Monterey, CA 93940 • Office of Housing Programs, 570 Pacific St., Monterey, CA 93940 • City Library, reference desk, 625 Pacific St., Monterey, CA 93940 • Website: www.monterey.gov/housing
In addition, on August 27, 2026, the City provided notification of the availability of the draft FY 2025-2026 CAPER to the following groups through Constant Contact and email notification:
• Chief of Police for the City of Monterey
• CDBG Subrecipients (Nonprofits)
• Continuum of Care (CoC) for the Monterey County
• Business Association Representatives
• Neighborhood Association Presidents
• Social Action Groups
• Residents of Public and Affordable Housing
Staff is working with agencies to ensure their reported numbers in this draft are correct prior to the final submittal to HUD. Should staff receive any further updated numbers from public service agencies, numbers will be updated in the final HUD document.

Council Regular Meeting, 9/15/2026, Item No. 13., Item Page 3, Packet Page 163 №12/25
FY 2025-2026 Accomplishment Overview
The FY 2025-2026 CDBG projects and programs focused on continued support of public services, preservation of existing affordable ownership units, and housing rehabilitation grants.

Public Service Grant Program Highlights:
• Nine (9) Public Service programs were funded $179,808. Public services were provided to approximately 1,438 primarily low and moderate income households and individuals including services for seniors, persons with disabilities, homeless persons, youth and families. The Public Service agencies providing services to Monterey residents include:

Community Human Services (Casa de Noche Buena, Safe Place, and Shuman Heart House), Gathering for Women, Alliance on Aging, Interim, Inc., Eden Fair Housing, Meals on Wheels, and Food Bank of Monterey County.

Housing Preservation Highlights:
• The City sold two (2) affordable housing units to low-income qualified first-time homebuyers and purchased one (1) affordable inclusionary housing unit that requires minimal rehabilitation.
• The City is in the process of completing the rehabilitation of two (2) affordable ownership units and will be completing the rehabilitation of these units in Fiscal Year 2026-2027.

Planning and Administration Highlights:

Housing staff monitored sub-recipients and completed planning and administration activities in FY 2025-2026 to ensure compliance with HUD regulations. City staff completed administrative activities that included the following:
• On-site monitoring of all public service agencies between April through July • Quarterly desk-monitoring of all expense and activity reports • Conducted the Annual Action Planning for the FY 2026-2027 Annual Action Plan and submitted these documents to HUD
• Prepared the CAPER and Action Plan in the Integrated Disbursement and Information System (IDIS) as required by HUD
• Completed financial and programmatic accounting in IDIS to ensure funds were utilized in accordance with HUD requirements
• Completed NEPA Environmental Reviews for CDBG projects The FY 2025-2026 CAPER is available for review on the City’s website:
www.monterey.gov/housing and directly via the following link: and is https://files.monterey.gov/Document-Center/Departments/Community-Development/Housing/Plansand-Reports/CAPER/DRAFT-CAPER-FY2025-26.pdf?t=202608271715090 attached as Exhibit A to the resolution.

Prior to publication of the staff report, the City received a comment letter that expressed interest in understanding how funds are programmed for expenditure, accomplishment data, and increased homeless counts. The City Council annually approves its Annual Action Plan that details how the City will spend its CDBG funds that year. The current Annual Action Plan is available at the following link: https://files.monterey.gov/DocumentCouncil Regular Meeting, 9/15/2026, Item No. 13., Item Page 4, Packet Page 164 №12/25
Center/Departments/Community-Development/Housing/Plans-and-Reports/Action-Plans/DraftFY26-27-Annual-Action-Plan.pdf?t=202604211159030. The CAPER correctly outlines that the City assisted two low-income households obtain permanent housing last year. The City had inspired to help six households, but it has taken additional time to rehabilitate the units. The commentor did identify a typographical error on Page 17 that should state up to 120 percent of AMI instead of 20 percent of AMI. This comment is noted and the correction will be made.

In conclusion, staff recommends that the City Council conduct a public hearing to adopt the FY 2025-2026 CAPER for Housing and Community Development Programs; and authorize submission to HUD.

The CAPER must be submitted to HUD by September 28, 2026. HUD reviews and comments on the CAPER and administrative changes to the document may be required.

CR-05 - Goals and Outcomes
Progress the jurisdiction has made in carrying out its strategic plan and its action plan.

91.520(a)
This could be an overview that includes major initiatives and highlights that were proposed and executed throughout the program year.

For Fiscal Year (FY) 2025-2026, the City of Monterey received a CDBG entitlement (EN) grant of $248,442. In addition, the City received $1,210,353.18 in Program Income (PI). With a total of $1,590,641.35 in resources available, the City was able to pursue a range of housing and community development activities. As of June 30, 2026, the City’s CDBG program has a balance of $1,064,879.40. The City was successful in meeting its timeliness test in FY 25-26 and continues ongoing efforts to maintain timeliness in future years.

To support the goals and objectives in the Annual Action Plan as well as the 2025-2029 Consolidated Plan, the City successfully focused on a wide array of planned activities in the first year of the Consolidated Plan. The City continued to fund its ongoing public service programs that support Consolidated Plan goals that meet community and resident needs. Public service programs funded through CDBG included homeless individuals, disabled individuals, seniors, youth, and families. Public Service programs included: Alliance on Aging, Community Human Services Casa De Noche Buena, Community Human Services Safe Place, Community Human Services Shuman HeartHouse, Eden Council for Hope and Opportunity (ECHO) Fair Housing Support Services, Food Bank of Monterey County, Gathering For Women, Interim, Inc., and Meals on Wheels. Approximately 1,438 primarily low-moderate income City residents were supported through these public service programs. Of the total number served through Public Service Programs, this includes 171 low-to-moderate income residents who received overnight shelter, as well as twelve (12) additional emergency or overnight shelter beds that were created.

In FY 2025-2026, the City continued to fund home rehabilitation projects through its Housing Preservation Programs. In FY 2025-2026, the City successfully administered and completed rehabilitation for one (1) low-income household through the Housing Preservation Program grants.

The City has also continued to provide opportunities for low-income qualified first-time home buyers to purchase former inclusionary, deed restricted housing units through the Purchase and Resale Program. The City purchased one (1) affordable housing unit for rehabilitation and resale, and two (2) homes were sold to low-income first time home buyers this Fiscal Year. The City is projecting the resale of the rehabilitated unit will occur in the following Fiscal Year 2025- 2026.

Assess how the jurisdiction’s use of funds, particularly CDBG, addresses the priorities and specific objectives identified in the plan, giving special attention to the highest priority activities identified.

The 2025-2029 Consolidated Plan concentrates on providing affordable housing opportunities as well as public services for low and very low-income households, seniors, persons with special needs, and individuals experiencing homelessness, as well as programs for public facility improvements in low- and moderate-income (LMI) residential areas. Activities undertaken in FY 2025-2026 addressed priority goals set forth in the Consolidated Plan. For example, direct assistance was provided to low-income and homeless individuals through services such as case management, outreach, and varying forms of support. Moreover, rehabilitation assistance was provided to homeowners through various programs to address the goals of improving housing opportunities for low- and moderate-income level households.

In FY 2025-2026, the City of Monterey continued to successfully provide support to LMI residents through CDBG funded activities. Examples include:
• Funding to public service agencies providing direct services to homeless individuals, seniors, disabled individuals, and low-income individuals throughout the community; • Funding to low-income homeowners to assist with home repair, rehabilitation, and accessibility improvements; and
• Preparing for the ongoing purchase and resale of housing units with the goal of preserving lowincome homeownership opportunities in the City.

In FY 2025-2026, the City received a total allocation that included $248,442 in CDBG grant funds and an additional $1,188,047.20 in FY 2024-2025 Program Income funding, allowing the City to utilize $179,808.00 toward public service funding serving 1,438 low-income Monterey residents.

Leveraging
Explain how federal funds leveraged additional resources (private, state and local funds), including a description of how matching requirements were satisfied, as well as how any publicly owned land or property located within the jurisdiction that were used to address the needs identified in the plan.

The City leverages additional local and state resources with the CDBG entitlement grant. The City’s ongoing partnerships that provide CDBG funding to various public service agencies, such as Community Human Services (CHS), allows organizations to leverage additional grant funds and private resources increasing programs and services within the community. For example, Community Human Services leverages multiple funding sources, including, local, federal, and state to run their homeless outreach and emergency shelter programs. In 2023, CHS opened Shuman HeartHouse, providing additional shelter beds within the City of Monterey.

In FY 2025-2026, the City committed a total of $179,808.00 of CDBG funds to seven (7) public service agencies. CDBG public service funds were leveraged significantly with local nonprofit agency funds. The various local organizations provided supportive services such as counseling, emergency shelter, homeless programs, programs for disabled individuals, senior programs, and other programs for low-income Monterey residents.

The Housing Authority of the County of Monterey (HACM) also provides a variety of services to the City of Monterey and Monterey County residents, including Housing Choice Vouchers, Project Based Vouchers (PBV), Rental Assistance Demonstration (RAD) Housing, Project Based Rental Assistance (PBRA), Farm Labor Housing, Tax Credit Housing, Transitional Housing, and other affordable housing programs. Currently, the City of Monterey has 223 Housing Choice Vouchers utilized within City limits in 2025-2026.

In addition, HACM owns rental properties in the City including: Oak Grove (1100 Second Street - 5 Low and Very Low income units); 531 Watson St (5 RAD units); 242 and 243 Montecito Ave (8 RAD units); and Portola Vista at 20 Del Monte Avenue (64 units for seniors and disabled persons). The Housing Authority offers affordable rental units to eligible families, seniors, and persons with disabilities.

Earlier this year on March 9, 2026, a three-alarm early morning structure fire started at an affordable apartment complexes within the city limits at 800 Casanova Avenue on a property owned by HDC. As noted above, HDC is a development arm for the Housing Authority County of Monterey. In the aftermath of the fire, approximately 91 residents were displaced from their homes. In a joint effort to assist, the City of Monterey provided a $125,000 in general funds to HACM inorder to assist with costs for temporary housing and relocation efforts of displaced tenants.

HACM also provides fair housing information and tenant-landlord counseling to its clients.

HACM tenantlandlord investigates discriminatory housing complaints. Additionally, HACM Council Regular Meeting, 9/15/2026, Item No. 13., Item Page 17, Packet Page 177 CAPER 7

partners with a wide array of community nonprofit organizations, City and County agencies, and State organizations to address affordable housing and housing shortage issues facing the jurisdiction.

In addition to the above, the City receives Permanent Local Housing Allocation (PLHA) grant funds from the State of California. PLHA is a formula grant to entitlement jurisdictions that is based on the formula used under federal law for CDBG. City Council authorized the use of PLHA funds to cover pre-development costs for the 100% affordable housing project behind City Hall.

PLHA funding was also used to fund various public service agencies in the City that assist with either homeless outreach/navigation centers and emergency shelter programs.

Discuss the difference between goals and outcomes and problems encountered in meeting these goals.

In FY 2025-2026, the City continued to fund home rehabilitation projects through its Housing Preservation Programs. In FY 2025-2026, the City has also continued to provide opportunities for low-income qualified first-time home buyers to purchase former inclusionary, deed restricted housing units through the Purchase and Resale Program. The City purchased one (1) affordable housing unit for rehabilitation and resale, and two (2) homes were sold to lowincome first time home buyers this Fiscal Year. One of those two homes was rehabilitated through the City’s Housing Preservation Program prior to being sold.

The City is projecting the resale of the other unit acquired after it is rehabilitated in the coming Fiscal Year 2026-2027.

As portrayed in Table 5 and Table 6 and above, while the City did not meet its goals for Council Regular Meeting, 9/15/2026, Item No. 13., Item Page 19, Packet Page 179 CAPER 9

acquisition and purchased three units, the City continues to pursue additional units. The City also sold two (2) affordable housing units to low-income qualified first-time home buyers. The City projects that the resale of the rehabilitated unit will occur in the following Fiscal Year 2026- 2027.

Discuss how these outcomes will impact future annual action plans.

There is a continued need for available housing units for extremely low, very low, and lowincome households in the City of Monterey. The City’s housing division strives to explore opportunities with regional public service providers, local nonprofit housing developers, and neighboring jurisdictions for the development of new housing units in the region.

The City entered into an Exclusive Negotiating Agreement on City owned land with MidPen Housing for the development of a one hundred percent affordable housing project to feature 41 units behind City Hall between Madison Street, Van Buren Street, and Dutra Street.

CDBG funds were allocated for nine (9) public services programs, which in total served primarily low income individuals including seniors, youth, persons with disabilities, homeless, and households at risk of homelessness, and low-income households. Echo Fair Housing provided fair housing and tenant landlord services. Alliance on Aging provided tax assistance and ombudsman services as well as referrals for other programs to low-income seniors.

Approximately 97% of those who received support from public service agencies through CDBG were low- to moderate-income.

The City continued its Housing Preservation Programs which are dependent on determining household income based on family size. Of the one (1) household assisted through Housing Preservation Programs, this individual was low-income. The City’s Purchase and Resale Program purchased one (1) affordable housing units for rehabilitation and resale, and two (2) homes were sold to low-income first time home buyers this Fiscal Year.

CR-25 - Homeless and Other Special Needs 91.220(d, e); 91.320(d, e); 91.520(c) Evaluate the jurisdiction’s progress in meeting its specific objectives for reducing and ending homelessness through:

Reaching out to homeless persons (especially unsheltered persons) and assessing their individual needs
The Coalition of Homeless Service Providers (CHSP) is the Continuum of Care (CoC) for the Counties of Monterey and San Benito and includes the City of Monterey. Every two years, in the month of January, communities across the United States conduct a Point-in-Time (PIT) count of the local population experiencing homelessness. For 2026, the CoC conducted its PIT count on January 29. These counts collect information on individuals and families residing in temporary shelters and places not meant for human habitation. This count ultimately helps the federal government to better understand the nature and extent of homelessness nationwide. As required by the HUD, CoCs must report the findings of their local PIT count to HUD. Information gathered through the PIT survey is used by the CHSP to understand the issues associated with homelessness, including causes of homelessness, service needs of the homeless, the region’s unmet housing needs, and trends over time of homelessness in the region.

The 2026 Monterey County Point-In-Time (PIT) Homeless Count found the County-wide homeless population was 2,073, including 1,459 unsheltered individuals and 614 sheltered individuals.

In the City of Monterey, a total of 236 were counted as homeless, a 7 percent increase from the count in 2024. No specific data on the characteristics of people experiencing homelessness in the City of Monterey is available from the PIT. Countywide, the homeless population decreased by 15 percent since 2024. The number of sheltered in the City was 72 and 164 unsheltered. The numbers show that the City is home to the third highest homeless population in Monterey County.

The homeless population in the City represents 11.4 percent of the homeless population countywide. The unhoused population in the City has increased since the 2024 PIT Count, which identified only 221 unhoused residents, an increase of 7 percent during this period. When looking at the population from the 2023 5-year ACS estimates, the City has a higher per capita of people experiencing homelessness than the County (0.74 in the City versus 0.55 Countywide).

The 2026 Monterey County Homelessness PIT Count and Report identifies financial issues such as cost of living and job loss as the primary cause of homelessness in the County, followed by alcohol or drug use. The inability to afford rent and not enough income were top obstacles to Council Regular Meeting, 9/15/2026, Item No. 13., Item Page 22, Packet Page 182 CAPER 12
OMB Control No: 2506-0117 (exp. 09/30/2021)
obtaining permanent housing.

In-depth surveys are conducted as part of the PIT for the County. While survey specific data does not exist at the City level, County-level data indicated that fifteen (15) percent of survey respondents reported currently experience domestic/partner violence or abuse at the time of the PIT count. This percentage has increased since 2024 (6 percent). Additionally, 22 percent responded that they had been physically, emotionally, or sexually abused in their lifetime.

Victims of domestic violence may require special services to find housing, especially single mothers who may also be responsible for childcare expenses.

The 2019-2023 ACS estimates that approximately 35 percent of the City’s female-headed families, with no spouse present and with children under 18 years of age are living below the poverty level compared to 5 percent of married-couple families with children under 18 years of age.

An ongoing homeless assistance strategy has been the provision of financial assistance for community organizations that provide services that connect both those at risk of becoming homeless and currently homeless to housing, shelter, and other services. Community organizations that were assisted include Community Human Services, Interim, Inc., and Gathering for Women. These organizations provide sheltered bed at night, outreach, case management, counseling, and other support services. Through the City’s continued CDBG funding to these organizations, services and outreach are directed to those at risk of becoming homeless or are experiencing homelessness.

In FY 2025-2026, the City continued to provide CDBG grants to community service organizations that serve homeless needs. This strategy has been an ongoing effort for the City to connect homeless individuals and families and those at risk of becoming homeless with needed services.

Six (6) organizations were awarded CDBG grants totaling $125,000 for the following services:
• Casa de Noche Buena by Community Human Services ($20,000): Emergency shelter serving single homeless persons and families with children; • Safe Place by Community Human Services ($20,000): Homeless outreach and support for homeless individuals and at-risk youth;
• Shuman HeartHouse by Community Human Services ($20,000): Emergency shelter serving single homeless persons and families with children; • The Food Bank of Monterey County ($20,000): Nutrition support to the homeless population;
• Gathering for Women ($20,000): Case management and day-center services to assist homeless persons; and
• Interim, Inc. ($25,000): Homeless services, emergency shelter in motels, street outreach, Council Regular Meeting, 9/15/2026, Item No. 13., Item Page 23, Packet Page 183 CAPER 13
OMB Control No: 2506-0117 (exp. 09/30/2021)
and case management for people with mental illness
Addressing the emergency shelter and transitional housing needs of homeless persons The City of Monterey continued to allocate CDBG funds to community service organizations that provided direct services to homeless persons. Public services funding was provided to Community Human Services’ Casa de Noche Buena and Shuman HeartHouse for emergency shelter services serving single homeless persons and families with children and Interim, Inc. for street outreach, and emergency shelter beds in motels. In addition, Gathering for Women, an organization serving homeless persons and offering shelter referrals, was supported by the City as well.

As the City is committed to addressing the emergency shelter and transitional housing needs of the community’s homeless population, they will continue to coordinate with and maintain strong relationships with the community organizations. The City continues to search for new ways to assist its homeless population’s shelter and housing needs.

In addition to regional CoC coordination, the City partners with the Monterey Police Department (MPD)to facilitate outreach to unhoused individuals. Outreach efforts for persons experiencing homelessness are leveraged by Police Department funds. In coordination with the MPD, the City:
• Provides workstations at the Monterey Police Department for service provider staff to facilitate solutions for the unhoused and collaboration with MPD officers; • Connects unhoused people with domestic violence workers, social workers, women's services, adult protective services, mental health and drug treatment programs, veterans’ programs, long term housing solutions; and other relevant services; • Abates illegal encampments to prevent beach erosion, public health problems, environmental damage, nuisance conditions, and fire hazards; and • Publishes information about these collaborative efforts via the City website.

The Monterey Police Department (MPD) has collaborated with many agencies to address some of the prevalent issues affecting our community. Some of these issues include homelessness, quality of life complaints, substance abuse, chronic problems, etc. These issues are more readily resolved by partnering with various governmental and non-governmental entities.

Social workersfrom Adult Protective Services (APS), Montage Health, Monterey County Behavioral Health, and Interim Inc. partner with Officers from MPD to form the MultiDisciplinary Outreach Team (MDOT). MDOT makes numerous daily contacts with the unhoused population in Monterey. In 2025, MDOT assisted 36 individuals with different services.

Helping low-income individuals and families avoid becoming homeless, especially extremely low-income individuals and families and those who are: likely to become homeless after being discharged from publicly funded institutions and systems of care (such as health care facilities, mental health facilities, foster care and other youth facilities, and corrections programs and institutions); and, receiving assistance from public or private agencies that address housing, health, social services, employment, education, or youth needs The Coalition of Homeless Services Providers is the lead agency for the Continuum of Care in the County of Monterey. The Coalition’s Leadership Council oversees the Lead Me Home Plan, which the City has participated in since 2013. Lead Me Home is a 5-year plan (2021-2026) that describes strategies to reduce homelessness over the five-year period from July 2021 to June 2026. The Plan’s framework was built upon using tools such as system assessment, predictive analysis, and community input process.

Objectives and priorities for addressing homelessness in the County of Monterey were incorporated into the City’s Consolidated Plan and will continue to inform future Consolidated Plan goals as well as Annual Action Plan activities. The Coalition of Homeless Services Providers works in close coordination with the City’s CDBG subrecipients. Community Human Services’ Safe Place program provided homeless outreach and support to homeless persons and at-risk youth while their Casa De Noche Buena and Shuman HeartHouse emergency shelter served homeless persons and families with children; Interim, Inc. provided homeless services including emergency shelter in motels, street outreach and case management for persons with mental illnesses. In addition, Interim Inc.’s Manzanita House provided short-term crisis residential services
Helping homeless persons (especially chronically homeless individuals and families, families with children, veterans and their families, and unaccompanied youth) make the transition to permanent housing and independent living, including shortening the period of time that individuals and families experience homelessness, facilitating access for homeless individuals and families to affordable housing units, and preventing individuals and families who were recently homeless from becoming homeless again
In FY 2025-2026, the City continued to allocate CDBG funds to serve organizations that assist the homeless population and those who are at-risk of becoming homeless. Interim, Inc. provided street outreach and intensive case management to 35 newly homeless individuals.

The City also continued to support Community Human Services (CHS) with three (3) programs:
the Safe Place program which provided homeless outreach and support to 36 homeless Council Regular Meeting, 9/15/2026, Item No. 13., Item Page 25, Packet Page 185 CAPER 15

individuals and at-risk youth, Casa De Noche Buena emergency shelter which served 71 single homeless persons and families with children, and Shuman HeartHouse emergency shelter which served 52 single homeless persons and families with children. Furthermore, the City also continued to support Gathering for Women which provided 192 homeless persons with case management and day-center services.

In addition to the public service agencies discussed above, the City allocated CDBG funds to the Food Bank of Monterey County, Meals on Wheels for seniors and disabled persons, Alliance on Aging for low-income senior tax assistance, and ECHO Fair Housing Support Services for lowincome households. Supportive services provided by each of these organizations helps the City’s low-income population by improving quality of life and meeting needs.

CR-30 - Public Housing 91.220(h); 91.320(j)
Actions taken to address the needs of public housing
The City consults with the Housing Authority of the County of Monterey (HACM) when creating the Consolidated Plan and the Strategic Plan. The Housing Authority of the County of Monterey (HACM), a public agency, provides rental subsidies and develops and manages affordable housing projects throughout Monterey County. Originally, HACM owned and operated 177 units in the City of Monterey. However, with the damage caused by the Casanova Fire, 86 units were destroyed and removed from the affordable housing inventory. There are 91 affordable housing units remaining within the City of Monterey. HACM also administers the Housing Choice Voucher Program (HCV), a rental subsidy program for lower income (up to 50 percent AMI) families and seniors. Of the 5,112 HCVs in use in the County, 223 are allocated for the City of Monterey. The City will continue to coordinate with HACM as the regional housing authority and affordable housing provider whenever and wherever possible in future fiscal years. HACM has completed the conversion of all public housing projects into project-based tenant assistance. Currently, there are no longer any public housing in Monterey County.

Actions taken to encourage public housing residents to become more involved in management and participate in homeownership
HACM promotes sufficiency and asset development of resident families and individuals by encouraging participants in the HCV program to sign up for the Family Self-Sufficiency program and the POWER project. HACM also assists families who are able to become homeowners by utilizing various options including Section 8 vouchers and working with the communities to provide down payment assistance to clients. These programs continued in FY2025.

Actions taken to provide assistance to troubled PHAs
Not applicable. HACM is not considered a “troubled” PHA.

OMB Control No: 2506-0117 (exp. 09/30/2021)
CR-35 - Other Actions 91.220(j)-(k); 91.320(i)-(j)
Actions taken to remove or ameliorate the negative effects of public policies that serve as barriers to affordable housing such as land use controls, tax policies affecting land, zoning ordinances, building codes, fees and charges, growth limitations, and policies affecting the return on residential investment. 91.220 (j); 91.320 (i) The 2025-2029 Consolidated Plan identifies housing costs and affordability as the most significant housing problems facing the City of Monterey. Households earning below 80 percent of Monterey’s AMI are most impacted by the lack of affordable rental and ownership housing units. While market rate rental units in the City are generally affordable for moderate-income households up to 20 percent of AMI, the supply of housing is generally limited. Simultaneously, the inventory of very-low and low-income units in the City is not sufficient enough to meet lowincome residents needs.

Housing is classified as ‘affordable’ if households do not pay more than 30 percent of their annual income on rent or mortgage. Otherwise, if a household is paying more than 30 percent of their annual income on rent or mortgage, they are classified as housing cost burdened. Both Census and survey data highlight that a high percentage of low-income households in the City of Monterey experience housing cost burden at 30 percent or greater of their household income. Coupled with the number of homeless individuals and families in the City, there is an evident need for housing units that are affordable to extremely low-income households. In the fifth year of the Consolidated Plan, the City is consistently exploring funding strategies that can be utilized to develop new availability of extremely low, very low, and low-income rental units.

A potential barrier to housing opportunities can be related to public policies. Such policies include tax policy, land use controls, zoning ordinances, building codes, fees and charges, growth limits, and other policies that affect the return on residential investment. Amending local zoning and land use laws or allocating funding for affordable housing through grants are mechanisms that can support the development of affordable units. Changes in policies can also help a community to overcome disparities in access to opportunity by the implementation of plans that will revitalize areas with existing affordable housing by improving services, schools and other community assets, sidewalks, and other infrastructure.

Policies to guide future development and achieve a vision for the community are contained in the City’s General Plan. Two of the seven State mandated General Plan elements—Housing and Land Use Elements—have direct impact on the local housing market in terms of the amount and range of housing choice. The Zoning Ordinance, which implements the Land Use Element, is an important document that influences the amount and type of housing available in a community—the availability of housing choice.

Council Regular Meeting, 9/15/2026, Item No. 13., Item Page 28, Packet Page 188 CAPER 18
OMB Control No: 2506-0117 (exp. 09/30/2021)
A Housing Element that complies with State law is presumed to have adequately addressed its policy constraints. According to HCD, as of October 4, 2024, the City of Monterey’s 2023-2031 Housing Element was found to be in compliance.

Specific to the City, a primary barrier continues to be a shortage of developable land with adequate utilities. A limited availability of land without utilities makes it expensive and infeasible for an affordable residential development. There is limited water availability for new development due to limited regional water supply. However, some existing properties have water credits that may be allocated to new housing development. The City has also identified underutilized sites with water credits and the location of these areas are mapped in the City’s specific plans
Actions taken to address obstacles to meeting underserved needs. 91.220(k); 91.320(j) The City supported the Van Buren Senior Housing project (long-term lease on City-owned land), the Monterey Hotel Apartments (solely funded with former Redevelopment Agency housing funds), and the Estrella Apartments (funded by HOME grant). These three (3) projects provide affordable housing to lowto moderate-income households. In the fifth year of the Consolidated Plan, the City continues to address the goal of improving housing opportunities for low- and moderate-income levels. For example, the City is in the process of developing a new one hundred percent affordable housing project on City-leased land located behind City Hall.

As stated throughout this report, the City provided grants through CDBG to public service organizations, all of which provide important support services to low-income populations in order to boost quality of life for populations served. Several organizations that received CDBG funds in FY 2025-2026 include the Food Bank of Monterey County, Meals on Wheels for seniors and disabled persons, Alliance on Aging for low income senior tax services, and ECHO Fair Housing for low-income household supportive services.

Actions taken to reduce lead-based paint hazards. 91.220(k); 91.320(j) The City of Monterey’s Housing Office administers and manages a minor Housing Rehabilitation Program which is funded through CDBG and includes grants offered to low-income households.

Minor rehabilitation programs offered to homeowners in need of minor repairs for home maintenance that improve overall housing quality, including funds for emergency health and safety repairs to meet code, and assistance to homeowners with installation of accessibility features for disabled household members. These grant programs are available to low-income households and each rehabilitation project is tested for lead-based paint if the unit is built before 1978. If lead-based paint is discovered, the City utilizes allocated CDBG funds to either encapsulate or abate any hazards. If needed, the City will test for asbestos. In FY 2025-2026, the City assisted one (1) low-income households through these CDBG-funded housing rehabilitation Council Regular Meeting, 9/15/2026, Item No. 13., Item Page 29, Packet Page 189 CAPER 19
OMB Control No: 2506-0117 (exp. 09/30/2021)
projects. In future fiscal years, the City will continue to allocate CDBG funding for its minor and major housing rehabilitation programs.

Actions taken to reduce the number of poverty-level families. 91.220(k); 91.320(j) Through CDBG grant allocations in FY 2025-2026, the City provided funding to public service organizations for important supportive services to homeless and low-income populations and allocated funding to their own programs. Programs, services, and organizations included the following:
• Alliance on Aging – Tax assistance and ombudsman services for low-income seniors in need;
• Food Bank of Monterey – Food donations;
• Gathering for Women – Case management and day-center services for homeless persons;
• Interim, Inc – Homeless services, emergency and temporary housing, and case management for persons with mental illnesses;
• Meals on Wheels – Meal delivery to homebound seniors and disabled persons; • ECHO Fair Housing Supportive Services – Fair housing support to low-income households;
• Community Human Services Safe Place – Homeless and at-risk youth outreach and support;
• Community Human Services Casa De Noche Buena – Emergency shelter for single homeless persons and families with children;
• Community Human Services Shuman HeartHouse – Emergency shelter for single homeless persons and families with children.

Actions taken to develop institutional structure. 91.220(k); 91.320(j) Since 2013, the City has been participating in the Coalition of Homeless Services Providers (lead agency for the County of Monterey’s Continuum of Care) Leadership Council’s oversight of the Lead Me Home plan. Lead Me Home is a 5-year plan (2021-2026) that aims to reduce homelessness through strategies and with the support of the community. The vision of the Plan is that all people in the Monterey and San Benito Counties should have access to affordable housing and services that will stabilize their lives. Objectives and priorities for addressing homelessness in the County of Monterey were incorporated into the City’s Consolidated Plan and will continue to inform future Consolidated Plan goals as well as Annual Action Plan activities. As the Coalition works in close coordination with the City of Monterey’s CDBG subrecipients, the City remains in regular contact and coordination with providers in the region.

Furthermore, the City also consults with the Housing Authority of the County of Monterey Council Regular Meeting, 9/15/2026, Item No. 13., Item Page 30, Packet Page 190 CAPER 20
OMB Control No: 2506-0117 (exp. 09/30/2021)
(HACM) and with Eden Council for Hope and Opportunity, both of which are regional agencies providing vital services in the community.

Actions taken to enhance coordination between public and private housing and social service agencies. 91.220(k); 91.320(j)
The City continues to work with various public service agencies that provide strategic and crucial services to City residents, such as outreach and education regarding affordable housing and housing placement. In FY 2025-2026, the City aimed to maintain and strengthen its relationships with these public service agencies and is consistently searching for new avenues to bolster these established relationships and develop new ones as well.

Identify actions taken to overcome the effects of any impediments identified in the jurisdictions analysis of impediments to fair housing choice. 91.520(a) HUD no longer requires an analysis of impediments to fair housing choice. Nevertheless, the City continues to evaluate needs and offer fair housing services including tenant landlord, first time homebuyer classes, and tenant protection trainings.

Council Regular Meeting, 9/15/2026, Item No. 13., Item Page 42, Packet Page 202 housing being affordable to moderate-income households at "20 percent of AMI," which doesn't seem right. (20% of AMI would be an extremely low income level, not what you'd normally call "moderate" income.) These may simply be reporting or drafting errors, but before the CAPER is finalized and submitted to HUD, I hope city staff will take another careful look and reconcile them.

When we're talking about more than a million dollars in unused CDBG funds, I think it's reasonable for residents to ask questions.

Thank you!

• Supports efforts and policies that provide equitable
access to affordable housing in Monterey and the
region.
• Supports affordable housing through modern zoning
policies/ordinances, ADU policies, housing grants,

Item No.: 14.

Council Regular Meeting, 9/15/2026, Item No. 14., Item Page 1, Packet Page 204 №10/24
housing project located behind City Hall and will help the City achieve its affordable housing goals. The project is consistent with the City of Monterey General Plan land use designation and Downtown Specific Plan. The City has approved the project in compliance with SB 35, a State law establishing specific parameters for affordable housing projects.

CAMPAIGN DISCLOSURE REQUIREMENT (LEVINE ACT) APPLIES: Yes.

FISCAL IMPLICATIONS:

The City Council entered into an Exclusive Negotiating Agreement with MidPen Housing Corporation (“MidPen”) for a 100% affordable housing project behind City Hall. The City and MidPen have been working together to obtain funding.

The City obtained $110,598.05 in Permanent Local Housing Allocation State funds for the project. The City disbursed this money to MidPen to contribute toward predevelopment costs.

The PLHA funds are considered a loan and will be repaid to the City under the approved agreement, as required by the State.

The City, with significant help from MidPen, also obtained a Regional Early Action Planning (REAP) grant from the Association of Monterey Bay Area Governments (AMBAG) for this project. Through this process, the City was awarded up to a maximum of $2,474,830in REAP

2.0 funds. Due to the State budget, AMBAG reduced the City’s grant to a maximum of $2,305,450 to cover predevelopment costs.

On October 15, 2024, the City Council also approved a $1,500,000 loan to support the project.

At the time of its approval, the report anticipated the loan to be sourced from the General Fund.

The City has successfully accumulated funds in the Low and Moderate Income Housing Asset Fund (LMIHAF) to pay for the loan instead of the General Fund. This agenda item appropriates these funds to the project. A summary of the project financing includes:

City of Monterey Direct Financial Contributions:

Contributions Amount
Contributions Permanent Local Housing Allocation (State Grant) $110,598.05 REAP Grant for Predevelopment Costs $2,474,830.00
Low & Moderate Income Asset Fund $1,500,000.00
Total $4,085,428.05
Note: The City allocated $220,964.20 of the REAP grant to pay for the City’s NEPA environmental review of the project. The direct grant value to MP Madison Street Associates L.P. was $2,253,865.80.

ENVIRONMENTAL DETERMINATION:

The City of Monterey determined that the proposed action is not a project as defined by the California Environmental Quality Act (CEQA)(CCR, Title 14, Chapter 3 (CEQA Guidelines), Article 20, Section 15378). In addition, CEQA Guidelines Section 15061 includes the general Council Regular Meeting, 9/15/2026, Item No. 14., Item Page 2, Packet Page 205 №10/24
rule that CEQA applies only to activities which have the potential for causing a significant effect on the environment. Where it can be seen with certainty that there is no possibility that the activity in question may have a significant effect on the environment, the activity is not subject to CEQA. Because the proposed action and this matter have no potential to cause any effect on the environment, or because it falls within a category of activities excluded as projects pursuant to CEQA Guidelines section 15378, this matter is not a project. Because the matter does not cause a direct or any reasonably foreseeable indirect physical change on or in the environment, this matter is not a project. Any subsequent discretionary projects resulting from this action will be assessed for CEQA applicability.

ALTERNATIVES CONSIDERED:

The City could fund the loan from the General Fund as originally anticipated, but this is not a recommended approach due to the City’s financial situation.

DISCUSSION:

For several years, affordable housing has remained one of the City Council and Monterey community’s top value drivers and strategic priorities. The Council was particularly interested in developing a 100% affordable housing project on City property. City staff has been working diligently to fulfill this goal.

Background
In January 2020, the City Council authorized staff to issue a Request for Proposals to develop City owned property for affordable housing. (Resolution 20-011) In July 2020, the City issued a Request for Proposals to develop City-owned sites for affordable housing. The City received proposals for four development sites. MidPen’s original proposal included developing the site behind City Hall and 417 Figueroa Street concurrently in order to achieve enough units for financing. As the project concept was downsized to only the site behind City Hall, MidPen evaluated multiple development scenarios.

On June 15, 2021, the City Council adopted Resolution 21-065 declaring the properties located at 587 and 593 Van Buren Street and 424 And 450 Madison Street to be exempt from the Surplus Land Act.

On July 19, 2022, the City Council approved entering into an Exclusive Negotiating Agreement (ENA) with MidPen Housing Corporation (“MidPen”) for the development of affordable housing.

This Agreement (Ag-11130) was effective August 15, 2022. It has been amended five times and the negotiating period extended to April 12, 2027. The purpose of an ENA was to have a specific, limited period of time to negotiate mutually acceptable governing documents for the potential disposition of the Property and undertaking of the construction of the project on the property by MidPen Housing.

On October 15, 2024, the City Council approved Resolution 24-164 approving the Affordable Housing and Property Disposition Agreement and a Ground Lease between MidPen entity MP Madison Street Associates, L.P. and the City of Monterey. Resolution 24-164 also authorized a $1.5 million loan and delegated authority to the City Manager to finalize the loan terms and documents. Since that time, the developer has been searching for additional funding sources.

Council Regular Meeting, 9/15/2026, Item No. 14., Item Page 3, Packet Page 206 №10/24
Project financing is solidifying, and MidPen intends to start construction in late 2026 or early 2027.

Analysis
The City has adequate funds in its Low and Moderate Income Housing Asset Fund to fund the $1.5 million loan for construction of the affordable housing project at 587 and 593 Van Buren Street and 424 and 450 Madison Street, adjacent parking lot and area behind the building located at 546 Dutra Street. Additionally, this is an appropriate use of the LMIHAF funds pursuant to State law.

Staff is also recommending the previous Permanent Local Housing Allocation (PLHA) Loan of $110,598.05 be assigned to MP Madison Street Associates, L.P., the newly created limited partnership for the project.

In conclusion, staff recommends the City Council adopt a resolution amending the fiscal year 2026-2027 City Budget (Resolution 26-090) and authorize $1.5 million construction loan to MP Madison Street Associates, L.P and assign the Permanent Local Housing Allocation (PLHA) Loan of $110,598.05 to MP Madison Street Associates, L.P.
