Background: The City Council has asked staff to explore the idea of extending the section of Mt.

The proposed Municipal Code amendments will bring section 7.20 into alignment with the District code allowing for enforcement on Parks property.
Report By: Robert Gibson, Chief of Police

11. Adoption of the Raftelli’s Final Drainage Impact Fee Report Background: The City of Mt Shasta currently charges property owners a flat fee of $1.00 per/mo. to help pay for the replacement of failing drainage infrastructure. To determine a fair rate for property owners to pay that will allow the City to start funding the replacement of failing infrastructure, the City contracted with a company titled Raftellis. Raftellis is considered a nationwide expert in performing such studies in a manner that employs very specific methodology that assesses the percentage of impervious surface per eligible parcel within the City’s boundaries. The methodology to determine the rate is outlined in the agenda packet. The rate per Equivalent Residential Unit (ERU) will be used as the target rate for a Drainage Assessment to be considered in an 218 process/upcoming election.
Report By: Todd Juhasz, City Manager
Recommended Council Action: Staff recommends the review and acceptance of the Raftelli’s Final Drainage Impact Fee Report.
12. Discussion and Possible Action: Proposed Additional Chamber of Commerce Funding Background: The City Council will hear a report and discuss the possibility of additional funding to be provided to the Chamber of Commerce.
Report By: Todd Juhasz, City Manager
Recommended Council Action: Staff recommends the provision of an additional $15,000 per/year to support Chamber of Commerce activities.

Mt. Shasta City Council Regular Meeting Monday November 13, 2023 31 2 As of October 31, 2023, the combined funds the City of Mt. Shasta had invested in the Local Agency Investment Fund (L.A.I.F.) totaled $251,640.47. The October 2023 LAIF statement is attached, along with the performance data for the month of September. Most surplus funds over which the City has control are currently invested in ProEquities. The balance of the City’s cash funds are held in the pooled checking account with Tri Counties Bank and LAIF.
Current investment rates are:
L.A.I.F. September 30, 2023 3.534%
Treasury Note – 3 month September 29, 2023 5.45%
Treasury Note – 2 Yr. September 29, 2023 5.05%
Treasury Note – 5 Yr. September 29, 2023 4.61%
Treasury Note – 10 Yr. September 29, 2023 4.57%
Treasury Note – 30 Yr. September 29, 2023 4.70%
Bloomberg as reported by Chandler Asset Management
The LAIF average increased slightly from last month, all notes experienced increases except the 3 month note which remained constant. We continue to anticipate the LAIF rate slowly increasing staying just above 3%. Short term CD rates are now better than the LAIF rate and longer-term notes may offer better yields it does not give us the liquidity we need. The LAIF rate remains the best available rate that meets the City’s requirement for liquidity and safety.
Financial Impact:
The investments are in compliance with the City’s investment policy and provides for meeting the City’s cash flow needs for the next month and 6 month periods.
Compliance with 2014-17 City Council Strategic Plan:
The City Council’s leadership efforts to ensure adherence to the best possible financial practices and overall transparency falls under Strategic Focus IV – Grow Mt. Shasta Pride and Quality and the Municipal Responsibilities of Progressive Leadership and Financial Health and Economic Opportunity.

Mt. Shasta City Council Regular Meeting Monday November 13, 2023 47 City Council Agenda Item # 8
Staff Report
Meeting Date: November 13, 2023
To: Mayor and City Council
From: Public Works Director, Kellogg
Subject: Modification to Snow Removal Operations on South Mt. Shasta Blvd.
Background & Summary:
Currently, during snowfall events, Public Works plows snow to the center of the street on Mt.
Shasta Blvd. from Alma Street, South to Forest Street. It does the same on Chestnut from Ivy, South to Mt. Shasta Blvd. After being plowed to the center of the street, the snow is moved a second time. It is loaded into dump trucks and taken to the old mill site and deposited. The process of plowing to the center of the street is directed in the Municipal Code:
12.24.070 Downtown sidewalk snow removal.
MSMC 12.24.070 through 12.24.100 are established to protect and provide for the safety and general welfare of the public using the “downtown shopping” areas where snow is plowed from the street curb to the center of the street, and establish that sidewalk snow removal is a direct benefit to all businesses and properties within the mandatory removal district. (Ord. CCO-06-01, 2006; Ord. 406 § 8, 1982) This process of handling the snow twice adds significantly to the cost of clearing the snow from our streets. This last snow season the city spent $46,573 on contractors hauling snow to the old mill site. Another approximately $48,529 was expended through force account, preparing a site for the snow to be deposited and loading the contractor’s trucks as well as running one of our own. This totals to $95,102. For reference, the total winter’s snow plowing operations for the city was $300,804. Please remember, this removal cost is for where we are currently plowing only.
Council has asked staff to explore the idea of extending the length of the section of Mt. Shasta Blvd. where snow gets plowed to the center and then removed. The initially proposed concept is to extend snow removal to Roelofs Court.
Police Chief Robert Gibson, Public Works Supervisor David Torres and Public Works Director Ken Kellogg conducted a site assessment of the proposed section of South Mt. Shasta Blvd. The northern portion of the proposed section, from Sisson down to the Alpine Lodge area has a street width of 44 to 47 feet. This is too narrow to allow for adequate travel lanes, parking lanes and center snow storage. Sidewalks in this stretch of the Boulevard are also too narrow to use a skid steer for snow removal. The portion of South Mt. Shasta Blvd. south of Old McCloud is 54 feet in width which is like the 57-foot width downtown. This will provide adequate spacing for X Regular

Mt. Shasta City Council Regular Meeting Monday November 13, 2023 48 2 parking and travel lanes as well as snow storage. It was also noted that the portion of road south of Old McCloud has wider sidewalks allowing for the use of a skid steer for sidewalk snow removal. In observing the traffic and evaluating the site distances for safe turning at the Old McCloud intersection, it was determined that the center berm of snow should not extend north beyond Seven Suns. From there it would extend south to the southern end of the Native Grounds property; approximately 900 feet. A gap will be provided at the Holly Street intersection.
Snow that has been plowed to the center of the road reduces sight distances for drivers and pedestrians, prevents left hand turns except at intersections and promotes icy pavement with repeated freeze-thaw cycles. It needs to be removed as soon as practicable. Adding the proposed section of South Mt. Shasta Blvd to the city crew’s workload would increase that removal time by days. The solution to this is to use contractors for the additional portion of South Mt. Shasta Blvd having center plowed snow. This will also simplify the tracking of the additional expenses.
Using last winter as an example, a preliminary estimate using contractors to clear snow from the center of the road and plow the sidewalks for the full winter season would be $36,000 for the to be plowed section of S Mt Shasta Boulevard and adjacent sidewalks. The city is reimbursed by the state for 50% of it’s snow removal costs. So, the additional cost burden would be $18,000. For the new section of proposed plowing there is 1800 LF of frontage given both sides of the street. The cost per LF of property fronting the street would be $10/LF/Year.
As an example, if your property had a frontage of 100’ on S. Mt. Shasta Blvd., the additional yearly snow removal cost (due to plowing to the center of the road and subsequent removal, as well as clearing snow from the sidewalks) would be $1000. This cost projection is preliminary and would need to be examined on a regular basis and adjusted as necessary.
As a comparison, the city of Truckee removes snow in a similar fashion, plowing to the center and removing it with loaders filling dump trucks. They will sometimes use loader mounted snow blowers to fill the trucks or in cases where they plow to the sides, use snow blowers to fill trucks or blow it into snow storage easements that are 20’ to 50’ in width. Truckee also utilizes several methods to pay for snow removal including “Pay to Park” and an assessment for the downtown district to cover sidewalk clearing performed by facilities crew and walk behind snow blowers.
Caveat: the City is still waiting for a call back from the City of Truckee for the assessment costs for snow removal. We are also waiting on an estimate of an appropriate snow blower from removal of snow from the streets. Please note that Truckee has a downtown snow removal assessment fee, a sidewalk snow removal assessment fee, and a general snow removal assessment fee for the entire City. The Public Works’ Director is waiting on specific numbers per property for each assessment.
Mt. Shasta City Council Regular Meeting Monday November 13, 2023 49 3 Recommendation:
Contact the property and business owners on the approximate 900 LF portion of South Mt.
Shasta Blvd. and discuss the proposal of a yearly charge for additional snow removal services once we have an adequate assessment of cost per household/business.

(530) 582-7707
Winter road crews work to accommodate the snow removal needs of our entire community. Snowplow operators clear snow from public roadways with the goal being to make all public roads in Truckee passable.
We prioritize by supporting emergency response needs first, followed by clearing main arterial and school bus routes, all residential streets, and high elevation areas subject to high winds.
The Department of Public Works monitors the weather and street conditions daily. When determining how to respond to weather events, Public Works supervision will make a professional judgment based on road conditions and various weather factors. Plow operations generally begin when snow accumulation is 4 inches or greater. Less than 4 inches of accumulation may or may not be plowed based on conditions.
Staffing: The Public Works Department is led by the Public Works Director and Street Maintenance Manager who oversees three Street Maintenance Supervisors, three Senior Street Maintenance Workers, eleven full-time equipment operators, and eighteen winter seasonal equipment operators. We have three designated work groups: Day Plow Operations, Night Plow Operations, and Sand Truck Operations. Shifts are staggered to accommodate a 7 day a week, 24 hour per day coverage schedule. All department personnel are available for snow and ice control operations as conditions warrant. The Town may utilize contract services to assist with the snow removal operations as necessary.
Service Methods: Snow removal operations are dispatched from the Town Public Service Center located at 10969 Stevens Lane, and the Tahoe Donner Shop located at 14528 Northwoods Blvd. During a winter storm event, day plow routes begin at 6:00 AM and night plow routes begin at 6:00 PM. Day sand route routes begin Winter Road Maintenance | Town of Truckee https://www.townoftruckee.com/government/engineering-and-public-wo... 1 of 3 11/8/2023, 10:42 AM
Mt. Shasta City Council Regular Meeting Monday November 13, 2023 52 at 4:00 AM and night sand routes begin at 4:00 PM. Snow removal crews will work an 8 to 12-hour shift as needed. Public Works has four service categories; Main Arterial and School Bus Routes, Residential Streets, Parking, Trails and Sidewalks. Each category has different needs and snow removal methods. More information about each category is provided below.
Sand Routes - Main Arterials and Bus Routes: Sand routes are serviced by a combination of sand trucks, graders and a brine truck. Sand and brine are only applied to main arterials and bus routes. The use of sand is limited to hills, curbs, intersections and traditionally icy areas. The application of sand is done sparingly as to not adversely affect Town infrastructure, water quality, and the environment. Graders are used on an asneeded basis for snowpack removal on main arterials and bus routes as these routes are the most heavily traveled and accumulate more pack than residential streets. Brine trucks operate exclusively on sand routes in traditionally icy and high traffic volume areas. Brine is primarily applied on designated roadways prior to forecast snow events. During snow events, sand routes are plowed continually. Please see the Winter Maps page for a map of designated sand routes.
Residential Streets: Loaders are used to plow residential streets to remove as much snow and ice as possible from the roadway and to create the greatest road width possible based on conditions. Streets are primarily plowed with a three-pass method; one pass down the center and two in each travel direction. On a wide road, a four-pass method may be used. As roads narrow, crews may shift to a two-pass strategy. Intersections and culde-sacs are cleared by loaders with snow being piled in designated snow pile locations. It is the goal of the Public Works Department to plow each residential street two times over a 24 hour period during sustained snow events. Depending on storm conditions and unforeseen circumstances, plow times on residential streets may vary. Please see the Winter Maps page for a map of designated plow routes.
Town Maintained Parking Areas: Town maintained parking areas downtown are plowed once per 24 hour period and are generally done so overnight. Snow cleared from parking areas is piled in designated locations throughout the downtown corridor. Snow piles are removed by Public Works crews and disposed of in offsite locations. The Town maintained parking area also includes several residential streets adjacent to downtown parking areas. These streets include Church Street, E Street, D Street, and School Street.
Post-Storm Cleanup: After each significant snow event, post-storm cleanup is required and may last for several days. Post-storm cleanup operations are as follows:
1. Continued application of deicing materials and/or sweeping up of deicing materials as needed.
2. Removal of snow from bridges and guardrails.
3. Off haul of downtown and other designated snow pile locations.
4. Removal of snow packed down on streets using graders and loaders.
5. Blowing of main arterials, bus routes and residential streets as needed.
6. Clearing of snow from signs and intersections.
Town Maintained Trails and Sidewalks: The responsibility for snow removal from sidewalks falls under three categories:

1. Town maintained due to no adjacent property owners;
2. Town maintained, but funded by adjacent property owner approved special district funding; and
3. Owner maintained with responsibility for snow removal placed on property owner adjacent to the sidewalk per the California Streets and Highways Code.
Town maintained trails and sidewalks are cleaned once per day after an accumulation of snow. Trails and sidewalks are primarily cleared with a blower, but may occasionally be plowed by small equipment. Blowers used on trails and sidewalks are similar to equipment used by private driveway contractors. Routes are serviced by the Facilities Maintenance Division of the Department of Public Works. Deicing/traction material will be applied as needed on curves, hills and shaded areas.
The Town’s trail system is a combination of privately and publicly maintained trails.
1. Truckee River Legacy Trail from the Truckee River Regional Park to Glenshire.
2. Brockway Rd. Trail from the Truckee River Regional Park to Martis Valley Road.
3. The Frischman Hollow Trail connections from the Alder Creek Middle School to the TDRPD Recreation Center.

TOWN OF MAMMOTH LAKES
PUBLIC WORKS DEPARTMENT
SNOW MANAGEMENT POLICY
Goal
The goal of the Town of Mammoth Lakes snow management effort is to provide for the safest possible movement of traffic throughout the community during winter months and particularly during storm periods.
The Snow Management Policy is intended to provide Town staff with guidance and to insure that:
Public safety is always the primary concern;
All areas are treated equitably;
Priorities are understood by all; and,
Proper responsibility and authority is established.
There are approximately 104 lane miles of roads which receive snow removal. During normal storms [up to one(1) foot six (6) inches of snow fall] it takes Town crews approximately 12 hours to plow every street in Town and approximately 20 hours to blow every street. After storms, clean-up is necessary which takes between 12 and 24 hours to accomplish.
Snow management in the Town of Mammoth Lakes is a function of manpower and equipment. We have Ten (10) full time operators and four (4) temporary operators during the winter. We also have five (5) fulltime mechanics that are used as snow removal operators during storm periods. The snow removal equipment includes five (5) loaders with blades, two (2) trucks with plows and cinder spreaders, one (1) grader and three (3) snowblowers. The manpower and equipment are divided into two 12-hour shifts during storm periods. The night shift starts at midnight and goes continuously until noon. The day shift begins at noon and continues until midnight.
The Town currently contracts out snow removal for all assessment and benefit assessment districts, including the Bluffs and Juniper Ridge, For the Bluffs and Juniper Ridge, snow removal consists of plowing and blowing streets. For North Village and Old Mammoth Road, snow removal consists of plowing streets, blowing streets and sidewalks and hauling snow with trucks. Sidewalks shall be blown once per day or when the snow accumulates in excess of 6 inches or more either at the conclusion of or during a storm event. Sidewalk ice conditons shall either be removed by chipping or by other means appropriate to the Division Maintenance Manager, including ice melt and/or cinders. This includes Town sidewalks and trails that are currently being cleared and those sidewalks to be cleared in the future.
Snow berms on Old Mammoth Road and in North Village shall be removed within four (4) days following the conclusion of a storm event, then removal of the berm shall occur more frequently as time permits during the storm cycle.
Priorities
In an effort to achieve the Town's goal of safe snow removal operations, priorities are set, as conditions change, to establish an efficient and safe order of snow management.
Priority Order:
1. Support for emergency agency responses.
2. Main arterials and bus routes.
3. Secondary residential streets.
4. Cul-de-sacs.
Mt. Shasta City Council Regular Meeting Monday November 13, 2023 55 Effective Date: 1/18/06
5. Scenic loop.
6. Park and ride lot.
7. Sidewalks and trails.
8. Bus shelters.
9. Traffic signals and pedestrian beacons.
Level 1 Operations:
During normal, manageable storms, all roads are considered top priority with preference given to main arterials and bus routes. When a crew goes into an area, all streets will be plowed before leaving that area. Bus routes will be plowed prior to 7:00 a.m. and maintained in a safe condition during the day.
Blowers are generally 2-1/2 to 3 hours behind plows and will blow all streets to the snow stake line before leaving an area. The Public Works Maintenance Manager may close roads and determine detours whenever it is deemed necessary for public safety.
Level II Operations:
When snowfall exceeds the ability of Town crews to successfully perform normal operations throughout the Town, the Public Works Maintenance Manager may, with the concurrence of the Public Works Director and Town Manager, implement Level II operations.
During Level II Operations, the 4th through 9th level priorities may be suspended until such time as normal operations are again possible. Personnel from other Town departments may be assigned to storm related duties. The Public Works Maintenance Manager may close roads and determine detours whenever it is deemed necessary for public safety. Additionally, the standards for the 3rd priority, secondary residential streets, may be lowered to allow for one lane of traffic only, with turnouts for passing about every 100 yards. This reduction in standards may also apply during normal operations when there is inadequate snow storage area within the Town rights-of-way to blow snow without the possibility of damaging private property.
Level III Operations:
When snowfall exceeds the ability of Town crews to successfully perform Level II operations throughout the Town, the Public Works Maintenance Manager, with the concurrence of the Public Works Director and Town Manager, may implement Level III, or emergency operations. During Level Ill operations, priority levels 3 through 9 are suspended. Emergency snow removal contracts may be implemented. The Town Manager, if a state of emergency is declared, may conscript whatever manpower and/or equipment needed for the purpose of providing adequate public safety. This can include use of all contracted private operators removing snow in the assessment district areas.
Whenever it is deemed necessary for public safety, The Public Works Maintenance Manager may close roads and determine detours.
Specific Procedures
A. Lake Mary Road, from the Juniper Ridge development to Twin Lakes Bridge, is under USFS jurisdiction and snow removal operations will be guided in compliance with the agreement between the Town and the USFS. It is our intent to keep the roadway open whenever it can be safely achieved.
B. The Mammoth Scenic Loop Road will be included in snow removal operations during daylight hours only. As conditions on Town roads deteriorate, Town representatives will determine when the Scenic Loop Road is to be removed from snow removal operations and closed until such time as all other Town roads have been cleared.
Mt. Shasta City Council Regular Meeting Monday November 13, 2023 56 Effective Date: 1/18/06
C. Roads in the Sierra Valley Sites will be included in normal plowing operations. However, due to heavy residential congestion blowing operations will take place during daylight hours only. Due to this restriction, this area shall receive first priority when daylight is sufficient for operations under Level I and II Operations.
D. Snow management on the State Route 203 frontage roads will be performed between the hours of 2:00 a.m. and 6:00 a m. due to parking regulations.
E. Cinders shall be used on Town roads to assist in traction of vehicles, especially following snow removal as needed.
F. All contractors employed by the Town to remove snow for assessment districts shall comply with the goals and objectives contained in this policy.
Municipal Code Sections:
A. Section l0.l2.100 establishes parking regulations during winter months. Parking control will be handled by the MLPD.
B. Section 12.04.080 governs snow Management on Town rights-of-way.
C. Sections 12.16.040 through 12.16.080 regulate private snow removal operations.
Miscellaneous
A. The Public Works Maintenance Division has established snow management guidelines for all Town operators. If necessary, the Public Works Maintenance Manager is authorized to amend the guidelines to implement this policy and shall inform the Public Works Director, when convenient, but no later than l2 hours following the decision to implement this policy. Nothing in this policy is intended to interfere with the Manager’s duty to make decisions necessary to implement the goals and objectives of the Town of Mammoth Lakes.
B. The Town operates a snow storage pit under private contract. The Pit is located on the north side of State Route 203 between Meridian Blvd and the USFS Welcome Center. The Pit is open from 2:00 a.m. to 12:00 p.m. seven days a week. The Town has identified several other sites for use when conditions and circumstances warrant. Please contact the Public Works Maintenance Manager for other site locations.

From: City Manager
Subject: Acceptance of the Raftelli’s Final Drainage Impact Fee Report
Recommended Action:
Staff recommends the review and acceptance of the Raftelli’s Final Drainage Impact Fee Report.
Summary:
The City of Mt Shasta currently charges property owners a flat fee of $1.00 per/mo. to help pay for the replacement of failing drainage infrastructure, an amount that is woefully inadequate. To determine a fair rate for property owners to pay that will allow the City to start funding the replacement of failing infrastructure, the City contracted with a company titled Raftellis. Raftellisis considered a nationwide expert in performing such studies in a manner that employs very specific methodology that assesses the percentage of impervious surface per eligible parcel within the City’s boundaries. The methodology to determine the aforementioned rate is outlined below. The rate per Equivalent Residential Unit (ERU) will be used as the target rate for a Drainage Assessment to be considered in an 218process/ upcoming election.
The required increases over a five year period that will allow the City to fund the replacement of failing drainage infrastructure over a five year period are outlined in the table below:

Presentation
Mt. Shasta City Council Regular Meeting Monday November 13, 2023 105 The City of Mt. Shasta (City) currently provides stormwater service within its boundaries, recovering revenue through a flat fee charged to its approximately 2,028 water accounts. The City’s stormwater utility is intended to be financially self-sufficient with funding for capital and operating requirements derived primarily from user charges, which amount to approximately $24,000 annually. The City’s stormwater system consists of remnant creeks and wetlands interconnected to a network of pipes, drains, ditches, and culverts. Much of the current system is aging and in need of repair or replacement to continue proper function and prevent system failure. As annual user charges currently provide inadequate funding to meet requirements for both operating and capital needs, the City has been unable to complete relevant capital projects. The need has become more apparent as the City has begun to experience storms of greater intensity which exacerbate the City’s drainage issues. The aging infrastructure of the City must be addressed to continue to provide benefits to the community. An update of the Stormwater Master Plan in 2020 identified opportunities to implement multi- benefit projects which address the stormwater challenges experienced by the City.
Raftelis used industry standard methodologies to develop a financial plan and rate structure alternatives with needed, enhanced funding to support a more robust stormwater program and allow the City to take opportunities to improve local water quality, flood management, and the local environment through stormwater management.
1.2. Study Goals and Objectives
The goal for this study was to develop a 5-year financial plan for the City’s stormwater utility from FY 2024 – FY 2028 (study period) in which:
• Rate revenues are sufficient to meet annual operating and capital expenditures, • Reserve levels are maintained in accordance with industry best practices1, and • The rate structure provides enhanced equity between customer classes compared with a flat rate.
1.3. Study Findings
The study team found that projected stormwater service revenue under the current rates and rate structure is insufficient to meet annual revenue requirements through the study period. To meet the City’s objectives, Raftelis recommends revenue adjustments following the schedule below for FY 2024 through FY 2028.
Table 1: Required Revenue Adjustments, FY 2024 - 2028
FY 2024 [1] FY 2025 FY 2026 FY 2027 FY 2028
Annual Revenue Adjustments 1,193% 140% 33% 20% 17%
[1] Rate adjustments in FY2024 are expected to be implemented beginning in February 2024.
Mt. Shasta City Council Regular Meeting Monday November 13, 2023 106 These adjustments would increase annual rate revenues from approximately $24,000 to an average of approximately $1.4 million by FY2028, allowing the utility to enhance stormwater management. Following 1 “Cash Reserve Policy Guidelines”, American Water Works Association, 2018 FY2028, Raftelis recommends annual revenue adjustments of 3.0%. In addition, Raftelis recommends instituting an impervious area (IA)-based rate structure with equivalent residential units (ERUs) serving as the units of charge. An IA-based rate structure will improve the equity of revenue recovery between classes compared with the current flat rate per account. Under the recommended revenue adjustment and rate structure, the monthly bill for a typical single-family property will increase from $1.00 to $15.00 in February 2024.

Raftelis recommends that the stormwater financial plan be updated annually to reflect current estimates of revenue, operating expenses, capital improvement needs, and maintenance of reserve targets.
2.3 Revenues
2.3.1. Current Rate Revenue
The main source of funds for the stormwater utility is stormwater rate revenue. The current monthly stormwater fee of $1.00 per account generates approximately $24,000 annually.
2.3.2. Grants and Other Sources of Funding
The City actively pursues additional sources of funding in addition to rate revenues. In July 2023, Raftelis worked with the City to complete a submission for funding through the Clean Water State Revolving Fund (CWSRF) Program. The submission requested financial assistance in the form of planning and design funds for drainage improvement projects totaling $1,575,000. The CWSRF Program will provide funds in the fall of 2023. Following the planning and design stage, funding opportunities also exist with the CWSRF program; should the City decide to apply for this funding in the future, there is a better chance of award if the City can show the ability to match funds.
Mt. Shasta City Council Regular Meeting Monday November 13, 2023 107 Raftelis also worked with the City to complete a submission in June for the Charging and Fueling Infrastructure (CFI) Discretionary Grant Program. This submission requested planning and design funds for deployment of alternative fuel infrastructure, which would include extensions of storm drainage infrastructure to the proposed sites. The total anticipated cost for planning and design is $2.7 million; the City has requested
$2.16 million as part of this submission and, if awarded the grant, will require a 20% match. As this grant is currently pending, it has not been included as a source of revenue for this study. Should it be awarded, Raftelis recommends the City update its financial plan to account for the additional revenue.
2.3.3. Recommended Revenue Adjustments
Stormwater rate revenue should be set at a level that is sufficient to meet revenue requirements, finance the capital improvement program, and maintain adequate reserves. Raftelis recommends the City set target operating reserves at 60 days of operating expenses and capital reserves at the annual average of 5-year capital expenses. This amount provides a reasonable operating allowance for sound stormwater utility operations and exceeds the reserve recommendation in the industry for a utility of this size, which is a reserve equal to 60 days of operating expenses.
The City’s revenue under current rates is far outpaced by revenue requirements. To meet the City’s objectives, Raftelis has calculated the required revenue adjustments from FY 2024 – FY 2028. This adjustment would increase annual rate revenues from approximately $24,000 to $1.4 million in FY2028, allowing the utility to meet its objectives.

Mt. Shasta City Council Regular Meeting Monday November 13, 2023 114 City of Mt Shasta / Stormwater Financial Plan & Rate Study
1. Executive Summary
1.1. Introduction
The City of Mt. Shasta (City) currently provides stormwater service within its boundaries, recovering revenue through a flat fee charged to its approximately 2,028 water accounts. The City’s stormwater utility is intended to be financially self-sufficient with funding for capital and operating requirements derived primarily from user charges, which amount to approximately $24,000 annually. The City’s stormwater system consists of remnant creeks and wetlands interconnected to a network of pipes, drains, ditches, and culverts. Much of the current system is aging and in need of repair or replacement to continue proper function and prevent system failure. As annual user charges currently provide inadequate funding to meet requirements for both operating and capital needs, the City has been unable to complete relevant capital projects. The need has become more apparent as the City has begun to experience storms of greater intensity which exacerbate the City’s drainage issues. The aging infrastructure of the City must be addressed to continue to provide benefits to the community. An update of the Stormwater Master Plan in 2020 identified opportunities to implement multibenefit projects which address the stormwater challenges experienced by the City.
Raftelis used industry standard methodologies to develop a financial plan and rate structure alternatives with needed, enhanced funding to support a more robust stormwater program and allow the City to take opportunities to improve local water quality, flood management, and the local environment through stormwater management.
1.2. Study Goals and Objectives
The goal for this study was to develop a 5-year financial plan for the City’s stormwater utility from FY 2024 – FY 2028 (study period) in which:
Rate revenues are sufficient to meet annual operating and capital expenditures, Reserve levels are maintained in accordance with industry best practices1, and The rate structure provides enhanced equity between customer classes compared with a flat rate.
1.3. Study Findings
The study team found that projected stormwater service revenue under the current rates and rate structure is insufficient to meet annual revenue requirements through the study period. To meet the City’s objectives, Raftelis recommends revenue adjustments following the schedule below for FY 2024 through FY 2028.
Table 1: Required Revenue Adjustments, FY 2024 - 2028
FY 2024 [1] FY 2025 FY 2026 FY 2027 FY 2028
Annual Revenue Adjustments 1,193% 140% 33% 20% 17%
[1] Rate adjustments in FY2024 are expected to be implemented beginning in February 2024.
These adjustments would increase annual rate revenues from approximately $24,000 to an average of approximately $1.4 million by FY2028, allowing the utility to enhance stormwater management. Following 1 “Cash Reserve Policy Guidelines”, American Water Works Association, 2018 Mt. Shasta City Council Regular Meeting Monday November 13, 2023 115 City of Mt Shasta / Stormwater Financial Plan & Rate Study FY2028, Raftelis recommends annual revenue adjustments of 3.0%. In addition, Raftelis recommends instituting an impervious area (IA)-based rate structure with equivalent residential units (ERUs) serving as the units of charge. An IA-based rate structure will improve the equity of revenue recovery between classes compared with the current flat rate per account. Under the recommended revenue adjustment and rate structure, the monthly bill for a typical single-family property will increase from $1.00 to $15.00 in February 2024.

2.2. Revenue Requirements
2.2.1. Expenditures
The current and anticipated uses of funds include capital expenditure and operation and maintenance expenses (O&M). The costs of the City’s anticipated capital projects for FY2024 - 2028 are approximately $3.2 million (inflated). The largest projects are part of the Cold Creek Realignment and Restoration. This multi-phase project is expected to be completed in FY 2031 and is projected to cost approximately $6.1 million (inflated). Other projects include storm drainage replacement, street improvements, and retrofits, as well as installation of green infrastructure to provide proper storm drainage and treatment infrastructure.
O&M costs consist of regular inspections, cleaning, and maintenance, as well as seasonal program costs.
O&M averages approximately $40,000 annually during the study period.
2.2.2. Reserves
The City does not currently maintain a reserve balance. Raftelis recommends the City set target operating reserves at 60 days of operating expenses and capital reserves at the annual average of 5-years of capital expenses. This amount provides a reasonable operating allowance for sound stormwater utility operations and meets the reserve recommendation in the industry for a utility of this size.
To mitigate the impact that establishing operating and capital reserves in one year would have on rates, Raftelis recommends that both O&M and capital reserve targets be met by increasing the reserve amount incrementally. The annual average O&M reserve target over the study period is approximately $6,500; Raftelis recommends using 60-day calculated expenses from FY 2028 as a target. The annual average of 5- years of capital expenses ranges from a low of $850,000 to a high of $1.5 million over the course of the study period. Raftelis recommends using the 5-year average calculated in FY 2028 as a capital reserve target, which Mt. Shasta City Council Regular Meeting Monday November 13, 2023 117 City of Mt Shasta / Stormwater Financial Plan & Rate Study is approximately $1.3 million. By phasing in the reserve target at 20% annually, the full reserve target will be met by the end of the study period.

Mt. Shasta City Council Regular Meeting Monday November 13, 2023 119 City of Mt Shasta / Stormwater Financial Plan & Rate Study
3. Rate Structure
3.1. Background
The City’s current rate structure is a fixed charge per water account of $1 per month. There were no records to indicate whether this rate, established in the 1990s, was based upon the results of a utility rate study2. The purpose of the rate structure analysis is to revisit the City’s existing rate structure and provide recommendations on updates to the rate structure to improve equity, clarity, collections, administration, and/or revenue generation as needed.
3.2. Rate Structure Analysis
The rate structure currently in place in the City is a uniform flat monthly charge per account. Under this rate structure, all accounts are charged the same rate. The simplicity of this rate structure offers several benefits, primarily that it is easy to communicate and does not present an administrative burden. In addition, there is equality between all users, who are charged the same regardless of the characteristics of the land or developments associated with their account.
However, the current uniform rate structure presents certain drawbacks. The most significant disadvantage is the lack of precision in reflecting the impact of each property on stormwater runoff. Properties with significantly different levels characteristics that impact the quality and quantity of stormwater runoff might pay the same fee. As the main purpose of a stormwater utility is to manage stormwater runoff, charging all properties as if they have the same impact results in inequitable distribution of costs associated with this management.
The most important factor influencing a property’s demand upon the City’s stormwater system and program is stormwater runoff and the best surrogate for that demand is a measure of is impervious area. Using a rate structure founded on measured or effective IA is industry best practice. Implementation of a stormwater fee based on IA is a fair, equitable, and legally defensible stormwater rate structure. This approach directly ties fees to properties demand upon the system through their stormwater runoff, providing a rational nexus between a property’s charge and the demands upon the utility. Properties with more impervious surfaces, which contribute more to runoff and require increased stormwater management efforts, pay higher fees.
As such, Raftelis recommends implementing an impervious area-based rate structure which will recover the required revenues in an equitable manner that reflects the demand placed by each property. Included in this analysis is an updated Equivalent Residential Unit (ERU) determination, the methodology for which is described in detail below. The ERU represents the amount of impervious surface area of a typical single family residential (SFR) property in the City and serves as the unit of charge. ERUs should be periodically updated over time to ensure that they continue to accurately reflect the IA of a typical residential property as the development occurs and characteristics of the City change. 2 RFP: Professional Services for Stormwater Utility Rate Study, City of Mt Shasta, issued January 21, 2022.

3.2.1. Data
Raftelis used aerial imagery from 2022 and tax assessor data from Siskiyou County, CA to conduct the analysis. This data was used to determine which properties in the City were SFR and which were non-single family residential (NSFR) properties. SFR properties typically have one or two residential units per property.
NSFR properties include all properties not captured in the SFR definition, including multi-family, commercial, industrial, and institutional properties. To determine the proper classification for each parcel, Raftelis reviewed Siskiyou County tax assessor land use codes and reviewed aerial imagery. Table 7 includes land use codes that were determined to be SFR properties based upon land use codes and visual assessment of aerial imagery3. All other properties were considered to be NSFR.

3.3. Units of Service
To determine the units of service that will serve as the basis upon which all properties are built, Raftelis calculated the City’s ERU value using a sample of SFR properties. This value represents the amount of IA of a typical SFR within the City. We are recommending a flat rate for SFRs; thus, each SFR will be assigned 1 ERU in the computation of units of service. Next, the impervious area on all NSFRs is digitized to determine the IA for each property, which is used to calculate the ERUs of each property. The sum of SFR and NSFR ERUs is the total units of service for the City and are used to calculate rates. The process of developing units of service is described in detail below.
3As properties can occasionally be misclassified in property records, individual property classes can be overridden in the bill file. This initial effort was completed to determine the population of SFRs versus non-SFRs.
Mt. Shasta City Council Regular Meeting Monday November 13, 2023 121 City of Mt Shasta / Stormwater Financial Plan & Rate Study
3.3.1. Data Development and ERU Calculation
To calculate the ERU for the City, we conducted a random sample of 270 parcels which were determined to be single-family residences. This sample size was selected to ensure a 95% confidence level in the result. We ensured by visual review of the sample parcels that they encompassed a representative range of geography, structure age, and housing type. In some cases, an original randomly selected sample SFR property was not suitable to be included because it was obscured by vegetation and could not be accurately measured. In these cases, a visibly similar property from the same geographic region (the same block, if possible) was chosen to replace that sample property.
Once identified, the IA on each sample SFR parcel was digitized. Impervious areas include any surface that does not allow water to infiltrate the ground. Typical examples of IA include:
Building roof top and canopies
Concrete and asphalt pavement
Structural decks and patios
Brick and concrete pavers
Gravel used for vehicular or pedestrian traffic and/or vehicle parking.
Figures 1 and 2 show examples of digitized SFR parcels. The sample property’s boundary is outlined in yellow while IA is shown in translucent blue.
Once properties were digitized, Raftelis calculated summary statistics for the sample set.
Figures 1 & 2: Digitized SFR Parcels
Mt. Shasta City Council Regular Meeting Monday November 13, 2023 122 City of Mt Shasta / Stormwater Financial Plan & Rate Study Table 8: Sample Statistics
Maximum IA 18,060 sq ft
Minimum IA 1,099 sq ft
Average IA 3,429 sq ft
Median IA 3,082 sq ft
Based on this analysis, Raftelis recommends that the City define its ERU value as 3,000 to align with the calculated median IA of 3,082.
3.3.2. Units of Service Calculation
Raftelis calculated units of service separately for SFR and NSFR properties. SFRs were determined to be 1 ERU; therefore, these units were determined using a simple count of SFR properties.
NSFR units of service were calculated using a three-step process. First, NSFR properties were identified as those which did not fall into the SFR classification. Second, IA on these properties was digitized to determine the total square feet of impervious area for each property. Last, the ERUs for each parcel were calculated by dividing IA by the recommended ERU value of 3,000 sq ft, then rounding up to the next whole integer, as shown in the example below.
Table 9: Sample Property ERU Calculation Example
IA = 4,968 sq ft
ERUs = 4,968 sq ft / 3,000 sq ft per ERU = 1.656 2 ERUs The updated units of service calculated for this study include 1,206 SFR and 2,989 NSFR ERUs.
3.4. Rates Under Recommended Structure
Using the calculated units of service and rate requirements for each fiscal year of the study period, Raftelis calculated the required monthly rates under an IA-based rate structure.

While these rates would provide adequate funding for planned expenditures over the study period, they fluctuate noticeably from year to year, and feature large rates that may be intolerable to rate payers. To avoid such variability in rates and keep rates from reaching such high peaks in later years, Raftelis recommends beginning with a lower rate and increasing rates gradually over the course of the study. Raftelis recommends using the rate schedule detailed below for FY 2024 through FY 2028.
Table 11: Proposed Rates Under Recommended Structure, FY 2024 – FY 2028 Description FY 2024 [1] FY 2025 FY 2026 FY 2027 FY 2028 Months Effective 5 12 12 12 12
Proposed Rate per ERU $15.00 $15.00 $20.00 $24.00 $28.00 [1] Rate adjustments in FY2024 are expected to be implemented beginning in February 2024.
Raftelis recommends instituting an impervious area (IA)-based rate structure with equivalent residential units (ERUs) serving as the unit of charge. An IA-based rate structure will improve equity of revenue recovery between classes. Under this structure, all parcels with an SFR land use code will be charged using a flat rate of 1 ERU. The units of service for NSFRs will be calculated by dividing IA by the ERU value of 3,000 sq ft, then rounding up to the nearest whole number, as shown in the example in Table 9. This structure is shown in the table below.

4. Final Recommendations
The study team found that projected stormwater service revenue is insufficient to meet annual revenue requirements through the study period. Raftelis recommends rates be increased to meet revenue requirements and sufficiently fund operating and capital expenditures, as well as provide adequate reserves through the study period.
To meet this goal, Raftelis recommends revenue adjustments following the schedule below for FY 2024 through FY 2028.
Table 14: Recommended Revenue Adjustments, FY 2024 - 2028 FY 2024 FY 2025 FY 2026 FY 2027 FY 2028
Annual Revenue Adjustments 1,193% 140% 33% 20% 17%
These adjustments will increase annual rate revenues from approximately $24,000 to an average of approximately $1.0 million, allowing the utility to meet its goals. Following FY 2028, Raftelis recommends annual revenue adjustments of 3.0%. In addition, Raftelis recommends instituting an impervious area-based rate structure with equivalent residential units (ERUs) serving as the units of charge. Under the recommended rate structure, SFRs will be charged as 1 ERU, and units of service for NSFRs will be calculated based on measured IA.

Land Use Type Rate Structure
Single-Family Residential (SFR) Flat fee, 1 ERU per parcel Non-Single Family Residential
(NSFR)
Fee calculated on measured IA;
1 ERU per 3,000 sq ft IA
Under this rate structure and recommended revenue adjustments, the monthly bill for a typical single-family property will increase from $1.00 to $15.00 in February 2024. Proposed rates are shown in the table below.
Table 16: Proposed Rates Under Recommended Structure, FY 2024 – FY 2028 FY 2024 [1] FY 2025 FY 2026 FY 2027 FY 2028
Months Effective 5 12 12 12 12
Proposed Rate per ERU $15.00 $15.00 $20.00 $24.00 $28.00 [1] Rate adjustments in FY2024 are expected to be implemented beginning in February 2024.
Raftelis recommends that the stormwater financial plan be updated annually to reflect current estimates of revenue, operating expenses, capital improvement needs, and maintenance of reserve targets.

Staff Report
Meeting Date: November 13th, 2023
To: City Council
From: City Manager
Subject: Proposed additional funding for the Chamber of Commerce Recommended Action:
Staff recommends the provision of an additional $15,000 per/year to support Chamber of Commerce activities.
Summary:
The last contract between the City of Mount Shasta and the Chamber of Commerce was approved by Council in June of 2016. In the signed agreement, $65k in annual funding was to be paid in four annual installments for the operation of the Visitor’s Bureau and to fund Chamber led events. However, this was not consistent with the draft agreement shared with the Chamber.
Under the reviewed draft agreement, there was a clause stating that the Chamber would be funded at a rate of 13% of annual TOT. However, before presenting the final contract to the Chamber the City Manager at the time swapped that clause with a flat rate of $65,000 to be paid in four annual installments. This change was not disclosed to the Chamber, though the Chamber failed to read the final agreement.
During the last six months, the City Manager has met with the Chamber on a couple of occasions where they have shared that they have been struggling to stay open and have moved from a seven to a five day schedule. In addition, the Chamber’s Director has struggled to keep up with paying for certain Chamber-led community events, paying certain bills and hiring part time administrative staff. Instead of asking for the City to reconsider providing a certain percentage of TOT to help fund the Chamber, they’ve asked that the City provide an additional $15,000 in annual funding.
During the last meeting with Casey Clure, the head of the Chamber’s Board of Directors, Muriel inquired as to whether the Chamber has reached out to the Siskiyou Economic Development Commission (SEDC) about the potential availability of TBID Funding. After our meeting, Casey called SEDC and they were told that there are (10) $3,000 grants available for Siskiyou County winning applicants each year to fund marketing services. The Chamber has agreed to apply for one of these grants, but even if they have success, $3,000 only helps fund only one year of marketing services and can’t be counted on as part of a consistent stream of operating revenue.
Based on the profit and loss statements provided by the Chamber, staff believes that the request X Regular

Date: June 27, 2016
To: Mayor and City Council
From: Paul Eckert, City Manager
Subject: Resolution Approving Agreement with Mt. Shasta Chamber of Commerce for Operation of the Visitors Bureau for the period of July 1, 2016 through June 30, 2019.
Recommendation:
Staff respectfully recommends adoption of Resolution Number CCR 16-29 authorizing an agreement between the City of Mt. Shasta and the Mt. Shasta Chamber of Commerce for operation of the Visitors Bureau for the period of July 1, 2016 through June 30, 2019.
Background:
The current agreement between the City and the Chamber for the operation of the Visitor’s Bureau and community-wide events expires on June 30, 2016. The City has provided funding to the Chamber of Commerce for the past 14 years, funded with Transient Taxes collected from visitors staying at local hotels. The City Council allocated $65,000 annually of the prior year's TOT. Staff has negotiated a new three-year agreement with the Chamber that clearly outlines the services to be provided by the Chamber and sets reporting guidelines, tracking of performance under the agreement, and a review process for each fiscal year.
The attached agreement is a comprehensive contract and includes specific duties and responsibilities in Exhibit A. Staff receommends $65,000 be provided annually for each of the three years of the proposed agreement. In addition to operating the Visitor’s Center and managing Special Events, the Chamber will sponser Business Informational Meetings in coordination with the City on common issues to the community, including the new Team Shasta Initiative. Mixers, promotional events, ribbon cuttings, and business seminars are described, along with a local business shopping program targeted at keeping our dollars at home. Finally, the agreement contains a termination clause that allows the Council in event of a fiscal emergency to use the TOT funds funding the agreement for other purposes.
Staff recommends approval of the resolution and agreement as presented. The City Attorney has reviewed the format and content and concurs with the recommendation.
Financial Impact:
There are no cost increases associated with the proposed agreement with the Chamber of Commerce.
Compliance with the City Council’s 2014-2017 Strategic Plan:
The City Council’s efforts to maintain and enhance our Visitor Services Bureau falls under: Strategic Focus I – Expand Quality of Life; Strategic Focus II – Maximize our “Destination Location” Opportunities; and Strategic Focus IV – Grow Mt. Shasta Pride and Quality.
