A. COVER LETTER
October 31, 2025
Ms. Jailah Smith & Mr. John B. Anderson
City of Mountain House
251 E. Main Street
Mountain House, CA 95351
Subject: Mountain House 2023-2031 Housing Element
Dear Ms. Smith and Mr. Anderson:
PlaceWorks is pleased to submit a proposal to assist with preparing the first Housing Element for the newly incorporated City of Mountain House. PlaceWorks staff have extensive experience preparing Housing Elements and working with the California Department of Housing and Community Development (HCD).
Additionally, PlaceWorks staff prepared the first Housing Elements for the City of Wildomar (incorporated July 1, 2008), the City of Eastvale (incorporated October 1, 2010), and the City of Rancho Cordova (incorporated July 1, 2003), all of which successfully met State requirements and received HCD certification.
As the authors of the San Joaquin County Housing Element, PlaceWorks understands the foundation of the Mountain House community and much of the background data and analysis prepared for the County’s Housing Element is applicable to the City of Mountain House. This, coupled with our experience with newly incorporated jurisdictions, allows us to navigate the challenges of preparing a first-time Housing Element while ensuring the City of Mountain House is positioned to adopt a meaningful and compliant document.
PlaceWorks offers the best housing staff to complete the City’s first Housing Element. As Principal, I will oversee the update effort. I lead the housing team and command a thorough understanding of the technical requirements of Housing Elements. Cynthia Walsh, Senior Associate, will be your day-to-day contact as Project Manager. Our housing team has considerable experience working with HCD, having completed over 75 Housing Elements in the 6th cycle and 7 in the 7th cycle.
This proposal shall remain valid for a period of 90 days from the time of submittal. PlaceWorks acknowledges receipt of Addendum No. 1., issued on October 20, 2025, and the Q&A, issued on October 24, 2025.
As Principal, I am authorized to bind PlaceWorks and the project team to the contents of this proposal.
Please do not hesitate to contact me if you need more information. We look forward to working with you on this project.
Respectfully submitted,
PLACEWORKS

EXECUTIVE SUMMARY
PlaceWorks has extensive experience working with the Californica Department of Housing and Community Development (HCD)—completing over 150 certified Housing Elements since 2008, the vast majority of which were certified after a single round of review. Having authored the San Joaquin County Housing Element, which included the Mountain House Specific Plan, we understand the unique housing conditions and challenges the city faces with this update. We also understand the complex regulatory requirements that accompany the Housing Element certification process.
PlaceWorks staff has spent decades supporting local agencies for California Department of Housing and Community Development (HCD) compliance. We have extensive experience working with HCD—over 100 certified Housing Elements since 2008, the vast majority of which were certified after a single round of review. We also have considerable expertise with preparing inclusionary housing ordinances, analyses of impediments to fair housing choice, consolidated plans, annual action plans, housing condition, and income surveys, and acting as an extension of staff to help with Housing Element implementation and submittal of annual Housing Element reports to HCD.
The PlaceWorks team of highly experienced housing professionals provides clients and communities with the highest level of service. Each staff member is also cross-trained in numerous specialties—general plans, corridor plans, community design, and community health. Therefore, we add the greatest value to our housing policy and planning work. With our experience, you can also be assured of obtaining certification with HCD—100 percent of our Housing Elements have received certification by the State of California.

Task C. Regional Housing Needs Assessment (RHNA)
PlaceWorks understands that the Regional Housing Needs Assessment (RHNA) transfer with San Joaquin County is anticipated to be finalized in November 2025. While the City has not yet finalized a RHNA transfer, we will rely on the draft RHNA as a starting point. PlaceWorks will work closely with the General Plan team early on to ensure any needed land use changes to meet the RHNA are analyzed by the General Plan. PlaceWorks assumes that no rezones are needed to meet the RHNA. Should any rezone efforts be warranted, PlaceWorks can provide a separate scope and budget to assist the City.
Task C.1 Housing Parcel Identification Analysis
PlaceWorks will work with Mountain House staff to determine the sites available for the development of housing. We will focus our efforts on sites larger than 0.5 acres and smaller than 10 acres. PlaceWorks understands that the City does have larger sites that have not yet been subdivided and will work with staff to show how large sites have developed in the past.
PlaceWorks will prepare an inventory, map, and analysis clearly illustrating the City’s capacity to accommodate the RHNA. In keeping with State law, PlaceWorks will document the realistic development capacity of each site and will prepare a map showing all identified sites. The following will be completed as a part of the analysis, as needed.
x Analysis for sites smaller than one-half acre, larger than 10 acres x Analysis for underutilized sites
x Identify any publicly owned sites
x Identify infrastructure availability (current or planned) for sites identified to meet the RHNA PlaceWorks will also explore alternative RHNA credits. This will include identifying accessory dwelling unit (ADU) capacity, preservation of existing at-risk affordable housing projects, and other nontraditional RHNA credit opportunities.
PlaceWorks will work with the City to determine if the sites identified in the inventory are located throughout the community in a manner that affirmatively furthers fair housing.
Task C.2 Underutilized Sites Analysis
If needed, PlaceWorks will complete an analysis of nonvacant/underutilized sites (these are sites that may currently have an existing structure but have additional capacity to include housing) to address a portion of the RHNA. As part of this analysis, we will analyze the realistic development potential within the planning period by considering the extent that an underutilized/nonvacant site’s existing use impedes additional residential development, the jurisdiction’s past experience converting existing uses to higher-density residential development, market trends and conditions, and regulatory or other incentives or standards that encourage additional housing development on any nonvacant sites.
Task C.3 Infrastructure Analysis
PlaceWorks will work to determine if parcels in the inventory have sufficient water, sewer, and dry utilities available and accessible to support housing development. We will review existing General Plan programs or other mandatory programs or plans to secure sufficient water, sewer, and dry utilities supply to support
ATTACHMENT A
Item 8.1
Mountain House Page 177 of 404
B. Project Approach, Scope of Work, and Deliverables
6 CITY OF MOUNTAIN HOUSE • 2023-2031 Housing Element
housing development on the site. The analysis will include sufficient detail to determine whether the service levels of water delivery/treatment systems and sewer treatment facilities are sufficient and have capacity to accommodate development on all identified sites to accommodate the RHNA.
Task C.4 Financial and Programmatic Resources
PlaceWorks will update financial, physical, and programmatic resources available for affordable housing programs, including local and state funding programs and private-sector resources. We will assess current and potential housing programs to recommend future programs that will support the City’s housing objectives.
Task C.5 Electronic Sites Inventory
Pursuant to Senate Bill (SB) 6 (Chapter 667, Statutes of 2019), jurisdictions adopting a Housing Element on or after January 1, 2021, must prepare an electronic copy of the final inventory of parcels using HCDapproved Excel spreadsheets that must be submitted to HCD with the adopted Housing Element.
PlaceWorks will prepare the electronic land inventory and submit it to HCD upon adoption of the Housing Element.
Task D. Public Participation and Community Workshops
Focused and meaningful community engagement is an important part of the Housing Element update process. Government Code Section 65583(c)(7) requires: “The local government shall make a diligent effort to achieve public participation of all economic segments of the community in the development of the housing element, and the program shall describe this effort.” PlaceWorks recommends a community outreach program consistent with State and federal laws to solicit input from all segments of the community, including housing development professionals, residents, businesses, service groups, youth, seniors, and various stakeholders. Flexibility with community participation is essential.
PlaceWorks will collaborate with City staff to adjust and customize our community involvement strategy during our initial kickoff meeting. Our philosophy is to bring the most innovative, effective, and efficient approach to your project. We believe in an iterative process for community engagement that breeds robust and valuable results. We understand that unique situations require creative approaches, and we are always looking to revisit, revise, and improve as we collaborate with you on this process.
Task D.1 Outreach Program
PlaceWorks will prepare an outreach program consistent with HCD standards and that engages the public throughout the update process. PlaceWorks will collaborate with City staff at the kickoff meeting (Task A.1) to customize our outreach program. Once drafted, PlaceWorks will provide the outreach program to City staff for review, comments, and approval. PlaceWorks will provide this to staff within 60 days of contract engagement. PlaceWorks will consider the following outreach options when preparing the Outreach Program.
Task D.2 Branded Materials
PlaceWorks will coordinate with the Geneal Plan team to ensure consistency with outreach materials.

Task D.3 Stakeholder Interviews
PlaceWorks has been conducting virtual stakeholder interviews with organizations representing different socioeconomic members of the community to identify housing needs. We have found these consultations to be a valuable way of getting targeted input. We will work with City staff to develop a list of four to five organizations, and we will conduct a phone or email survey to discuss the issues and housing-related needs of their clients.
Task D.3 Deliverables:
» Two to three completed consultations to be included in the Housing Element.
Task D.4 Community Survey
PlaceWorks will prepare a survey that will be distributed to each household in Mountain House. The feedback received will be used to identify needs and constraints.
PlaceWorks will be responsible for preparing a draft survey that will be shared with City staff prior to distribution. PlaceWorks will rely on the available social media platforms (Facebook, Instagram, NextDoor) and on the City’s website to inform residents of the survey. We also recommend providing hard copies and/or a QR code at the library and City offices. From the survey responses received, PlaceWorks will prepare a summary of the findings to include in the Housing Element and to help guide the development of goals, policies, and programs.
Task D.2 Deliverables:
» Draft and Final Community Housing Survey, in a digital format and hard copy » Summary of findings to incorporate into the Housing Element Task D.5 Community Meetings
PlaceWorks proposes two workshops (virtual or in-person). We will work with staff to determine the best approach for the community meetings, but typically, we hold one meeting to educate the public on the Housing Element process and provide initial findings and the second meeting can be on the proposed sites inventory to ensure the public is involved with this process. We will prepare meeting materials, including PowerPoint presentations, handouts, and in-person surveys. This presentation will be designed to inform and to ask questions for residents and stakeholders to respond to.
Task D.6 City Council Study Session
We propose one study session with the City Council at the start of the project to inform them of the requirements of the Housing Element, new State laws, and the project schedule. This will also provide time for council members to ask questions at the beginning of the project.
Task E. Assessment of Housing Needs
Task E.1 Introduction
As this is the City’s first Housing Element, PlaceWorks will work with City staff to prepare a template including specific preferred fonts, colors, etc. We will also include an introduction to the element that includes an overview of the Housing Element and its requirements.

8 CITY OF MOUNTAIN HOUSE • 2023-2031 Housing Element
Task E.2 Housing Needs Assessment
PlaceWorks will update the needs analysis pursuant to Government Code Section 65583 with data from the U.S. Census, American Community Survey, and other relevant sources. PlaceWorks understands that currently, the City is categorized as a Census-Designated Place (CDP) and will work to gather data that only represents Mountain House. We will review the three census tracts and work to extract data that is outside of the city limits.
The updated needs analysis will include the following.
x Population and Demographics: Population trends and projections, race and ethnicity, and population age. x Household Characteristics: Number, size, and type of existing households and characteristics of lowerincome households (including extremely low). x Employment and Income: Employment by industry, occupation of employed residents, and income trends. x Housing Stock Characteristics: Housing types and conditions, overcrowded households, and vacancy rates. x Housing Costs and Affordability: Home sale price trends, rental costs, affordability for households at all income levels, and overpayment.
x Special Housing Needs: Special housing needs of persons with disabilities (including persons with developmental disabilities), seniors, large households, and female-headed households. x At-Risk Housing: Inventory and analysis of existing affordable units at risk of converting to market rate during the planning period.
x Opportunities for Energy Conservation: Pursuant to Senate Bill (SB) 375 and Assembly Bill (AB) 32, an inventory and analysis of opportunities to encourage the incorporation of energy-saving features, energysaving materials, and energy-efficient systems and design for residential development.
Task E.3 Affirmatively Furthering Fair Housing (AFFH) Assessment Assembly Bill (AB) 686 requires each city or county to take actions to overcome patterns of segregation, address disparities in housing needs and access to opportunity, and foster inclusive communities.
Mountain House will need to include an assessment of fair housing practices, examine the relationship of available sites to areas of high opportunity, and include actions to affirmatively advance fair housing. The California Tax Credit Allocation Committee (TCAC)/HCD Opportunity Maps will be included, as well as approved HCD maps that are intended to display the areas, according to research, that offer low-income children and adults the best chance at economic advancement, high educational attainment, and good physical and mental health. Based on these maps, it will be important to demonstrate adequate sites throughout the city and strategies to combat barriers to fair housing for current residents.

Task E.4 Housing Constraints
PlaceWorks will update the analysis of potential and actual governmental and nongovernmental constraints to meeting housing needs, including constraints to maintenance, improvement, and development of housing (pursuant to California Government Code Section 65583(a)(4,5)). Potential constraints to be reviewed include any land use controls, fees and exactions, permit processing procedures, building codes and code enforcement, land and construction costs, and the availability of financing. We will identify potential programs and strategies to reduce or remove identified constraints.
This task will include all the analysis needed to comply with recent updates to State housing law.
PlaceWorks will rely on the work previously completed as a part of the San Joaquin County Housing Element update where applicable.
Task E.5 Housing Goals, Policies, Programs, and Quantified Objectives PlaceWorks will rely on the programs in the San Joaquin County Housing Element programs as a starting point since these covered the entire county, including Mountain House, and create goals, policies, programs, and quantified objectives (pursuant to California Government Code Sections 65583 et seq.) to address identified housing needs and constraints based on conversations with City staff, information received through public outreach, the analysis of constraints, and findings from the needs assessment.
Programs will describe specific steps for implementation and will identify a time frame and responsible department. Programs will address:
x New State requirements
x Consistency and compliance with any draft General Plan elements and community goals x Development controls and regulatory incentives
x Housing opportunities for all residents, including the elderly, those with disabilities, the homeless, and other special-needs groups
x Fair housing programs
x Sources of affordable housing funding
x Preservation and improvement of existing affordable housing x Development of adequate housing and infrastructure to meet the needs of low- and moderate-income households, in keeping with the regional fair-share allocation x Mitigation of governmental constraints to providing and improving housing Task E.6 Review of Existing Housing Element
As this is the City’s first Housing Element, this section of the Housing Element is not applicable to Mountain House. PlaceWorks will prepare a summary to explain in this section.
Task F. Coordination with General Plan Preparation
PlaceWorks will coordinate with the General Plan consultant, De Novo Planning Group, to ensure consistency with the City’s General Plan Update Project. PlaceWorks proposes having a kickoff meeting with the General Plan team to better understand the goals, potential land use changes, and the schedule to ensure the two documents are consistent and that any needed land use changes are included. PlaceWorks will also work with the General Plan team to ensure the document format, including text, font, graphics, tables, figures, and picture placement match the General Plan document format and quality.

Task G. Preparation of Draft and Final Housing Element
The draft and final Housing Element will include all sections described in Tasks C, D, and E.
Task G.1 Administrative Draft
PlaceWorks will incorporate the feedback received during the community meetings and stakeholder consultations into a comprehensive, formatted Administrative Draft Housing Element. PlaceWorks will submit the Administrative Draft Housing Element to City staff for review as an electronic copy in Microsoft Word. Any outstanding data still needed from the City will be flagged so it can be addressed during City staff’s review. We request that we receive one consolidated set of City comments on the Administrative Draft.
Task G.2 Public Review Draft
PlaceWorks will address staff comments on the Administrative Draft and reply to any questions. We will incorporate comments and revisions from staff’s review of the Administrative Draft, as directed.
PlaceWorks will then prepare a Public Review Draft Housing Element to present to City Council prior to submittal to HCD.
Task G.3 HCD Review Draft 1
PlaceWorks will address public comments and incorporate them into the Public Review Draft and prepare a Draft for submittal to HCD for a 90-day review.
PlaceWorks staff maintain strong working relationships with HCD reviewers. Our staff is very familiar with HCD’s processes, staff, and what steps need to be taken to ensure Housing Element certification.
Task G.4 HCD Review Draft 2
PlaceWorks will work with City staff to address HCD’s comments and incorporate them into the second Public Review Draft for posting on the City’s website for seven days and then for submittal to HCD for an additional 60-day review.
Task G.5 HCD Review Draft 3
PlaceWorks will work with City staff to address HCD’s comments and incorporate them into the third Public Review Draft for posting on the City’s website for seven days and then for submittal to HCD for an additional 60-day review.
Task G.6 Final Draft Housing Element
PlaceWorks will prepare a final Housing Element that incorporates changes to the HCD Draft from City staff, HCD, or public comments. PlaceWorks will submit the final Housing Element to HCD for final certification.
The City will be responsible for submitting the Housing Element to the water/sewer district and Governor’s Office of Planning and Research.

Proposal for Services • PLACEWORKS 11
Task H. Hearing Attendance and Presentation Materials
PlaceWorks proposes two public hearings. One meeting with the City Council to present the draft Housing Element prior to submitting the draft Housing Element to HCD, and one hearing with City Council for adoption of the Housing Element. PlaceWorks will prepare or assist in the preparation of the draft staff reports, exhibits, and presentations to City Council.
Task I. Environmental Document (CEQA)
PlaceWorks understands that the City is preparing a programmatic EIR for the General Plan. If the Housing Element is adopted concurrently with the General Plan, the need for an additional CEQA document would not be needed; however, as the schedule shows, with three rounds of HCD review, the Housing Element will most likely not be adopted until fall 2027. In this case, PlaceWorks proposes relying on either an exemption or an addendum to the General Plan EIR. PlaceWorks will work closely with the City to determine the appropriate environmental document. PlaceWorks has provided two options for the CEQA approach.
Task I.1 Exemption (Option 1)
If there are no land-use designation or zoning map changes needed to meet the RHNA, and the policy changes do not result in direct or indirect physical changes to the environment, CEQA allows an agency to adopt an exemption for those projects that can be seen with certainty that there is no physical change to the environment. Should the City have adequate RHNA sites, minor policy changes, and future physical construction is subject to the existing regulations, ordinances, and laws that affect all construction, the commonsense exemption would apply.
Section 15061(3) of the CEQA Guidelines states “The activity is covered by the commonsense exemption 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.” In this context, the City would determine that the proposed Open Space Element revision is a project as defined by CEQA, but that there is no possibility that the project would result in a significant effect on the environment and therefore qualifies for the commonsense exemption.
To provide evidence for use of the commonsense exemption, PlaceWorks will provide a memorandum that follows the requirements of CEQA Guidelines Section 15061 demonstrating that there is no environmental impact. The memo is typically kept in the file but may also be attached to the staff report. PlaceWorks will provide an administrative draft of the exemption and supporting memorandum for review and following one round of comments, will provide the final documents for use by the City.
Task I.2 Addendum (Option 2)
The focus of the project will be to update the Housing Element to meet RHNA and ensure compliance with new regulations. Rather than prepare an Initial Study/Mitigated Negative Declaration (IS/MND) or new EIR, preparation of an Addendum pursuant to CEQA Guidelines Section 15164 may be appropriate if the land that will be the potential RHNA housing sites evaluated in the General Plan EIR will not change. In most
ATTACHMENT A
Item 8.1
Mountain House Page 183 of 404
B. Project Approach, Scope of Work, and Deliverables
12 CITY OF MOUNTAIN HOUSE • 2023-2031 Housing Element
instances, update of housing policies would not trigger new, significant environmental impacts. The use of an Addendum builds on the investment in the General Plan made by the City and significantly shortens the time for consideration of the project. Finally, provided that the City’s decision to use an Addendum for this project is supported with substantial evidence on the record, the decision enjoys the same protection as the General Plan EIR if challenged.
PlaceWorks will provide an Administrative Draft Addendum following a format discussed during the kickoff meeting. Our default format for an Addendum follows the findings in CEQA Guidelines Section 15162 rather than using an Initial Study. If a formal Initial Study is requested, we will need to increase the budget and scope accordingly. All impacts identified in the General Plan EIR will be reviewed in the context of the proposed changes. One administrative draft will be provided for review. The final draft of the Addendum will be used to support the CEQA determination during the hearing(s) for the proposed project.
Task I.3 SB 18 Tribal Consultation

C. CONSULTANT INFORMATION
PlaceWorks
PlaceWorks is a 100 percent employee-owned planning, design, and environmental consulting firm. The firm serves both public- and private-sector clients in the fields of comprehensive planning, urban design, landscape architecture, environmental analysis and sciences, and geographic information systems (GIS). Founded in 1975, PlaceWorks now employs a staff of approximately 140 people in six offices.
PlaceWorks is all about places and how they work geographically, environmentally, functionally, aesthetically, and culturally. We are also passionate about how we work with our clients. PlaceWorks brings together people from diverse practice areas, offering best-of-all-worlds capability and connectivity. Just as each place we work is distinctly different, so is our thinking.
Housing Services
PlaceWorks has provided housing services since 1988. We have prepared Housing Elements, analyses of impediments to fair housing, strategic plans, pro formas, housing demand studies, and video productions. Our staff have prepared over 150 Housing Elements.
PlaceWorks has also received numerous awards from the state chapter and local sections of the American Planning Association.
Few firms can offer our breadth of services or the resume of awards that demonstrate our project innovation and quality. Whether the focus is on revitalizing corridors with housing, incorporating an economic perspective into land-use decisions, or supporting community health, we integrate this expertise into our housing plans.
Our housing philosophy is rooted in the belief that the housing we reside in and the neighborhoods where we live are fundamental to our communities and the quality of life offered to residents and the workforce.
Successful communities are those that can embrace the value of housing and neighborhoods and can develop innovative programs to support housing. As we work with cities to plan for housing, we are guided by the following three principles.
1. Housing Strengthens Neighborhoods: Quality affordable housing and the neighborhoods where we live are critical to personal and family well-being. Quality housing provides a safe living environment for people of all ages. Strong neighborhoods with the appropriate mix of amenities are also essential to quality of life.
In crafting our housing plans, we look for innovative ways to incorporate housing and amenities in a way that strengthens neighborhoods.

2. Housing Creates Jobs and Economic Prosperity: Housing brings tremendous economic value to a community—it creates jobs, improves property values, and brings tax revenue into a city or county. A home is also the most valuable asset many Americans will own. We understand the economic value of housing, both to the resident and the community. Working with the development community, we also understand the economics behind housing and what it takes for investments to be made.
3. Housing Addresses Lifestyle Needs: Housing products continue to evolve to meet lifestyle needs in our cities and counties, and our housing plans should be responsive to these industry changes. Our work with the development industry allows us to bring the latest in housing products to our housing work. Whether it is intergenerational housing concepts, mixed-use, transit-oriented housing, or affordable housing, our housing plans reflect the latest in product innovation.
Project Experience
PlaceWorks staff bring decades of work supporting local agencies with HCD compliance. We have extensive experience working with HCD—completing over 150 certified Housing Elements since 2008, the vast majority of which were certified after a single round of review during the 5th cycle. We completed 75 Housing Element updates during the 6th cycle and 7 in the 7th cycle. We also have considerable expertise preparing inclusionary housing ordinances, analyses of impediments to fair housing choice, consolidated plans, annual action plans, housing condition, and income surveys, as well as acting as an extension to local staff to help with Housing Element implementation and annual Housing Element report submittal to HCD.
Housing Elements: PlaceWorks understands that each community has unique housing conditions and challenges and understands the complex regulatory requirements that accompany the Housing Element certification process. We use our experience and knowledge to work with local governments to gain an understanding of each community’s unique housing needs and strategies to produce a user-friendly Housing Element. We have extensive experience with preparing Housing Elements for small to large cities and counties, as well as for urban and rural communities (see Figure 2).
Experience with HCD: PlaceWorks maintains strong and effective working relationships with HCD reviewers. Over the course of assisting cities and counties with their Housing Elements, we have worked closely with staff at HCD. We strive to understand updates to State law and HCD goals and serve as a liaison between HCD staff and the communities we work with. Reaching a consensus with HCD is a negotiation process, and we are committed to representing the City’s best interests in that process. By maintaining close contact with HCD and representing the needs of our clients, we have never failed to obtain certification of any of the Housing Elements we have prepared. Our proximity to HCD’s office in Sacramento makes it easy for us to meet with HCD staff as needed.

28 CITY OF MOUNTAIN HOUSE • 2023-2031 Housing Element
Fresno Council of Governments 2023-2031 Multi-jurisdictional Housing Element Update Fresno Council of Governments (FCOG) contracted with PlaceWorks in April 2022 to prepare the 2023- 2031 Multi-Jurisdictional Housing Element that included the cities of Coalinga, Firebaugh, Fowler, Fresno, Huron, Kerman, Kingsburg, Mendota, Orange Cove, Parlier, Reedley, San Joaquin, Sanger, Selma, and the County of Fresno.
The Multi-Jurisdictional Housing Element provided opportunity for countywide housing issues and needs to be more effectively addressed at the regional level rather than only at the local level. The work effort included several regional pieces of the Housing Element that summarized housing needs, housing constraints, and fair housing issues. The Housing Element also included regional outreach and programs on a regional basis. A jurisdiction-specific Housing Element was also prepared to address local housing issues and constraints, a land inventory identifying sites to meet the RHNA, and it included programs to address local housing concerns and priorities. As a part of the Housing Element update process, PlaceWorks acted as the liaison with HCD to ensure each Housing Element met all statutory requirements. Fresno County was the first county in the state to get 95 percent of the Housing Elements in compliance within one year of the adoption due date for the 6th cycle.
The Multi-Jurisdictional Housing Element represented an innovative approach to meeting State Housing Element law and coordinating resources to address the region’s housing needs. » Client Information: Sean Brewer, City Manager | 559.935.1533 x143 | [email protected] » Dates of Work: 2022 – 2024

Elk Grove Housing Element Update
PlaceWorks was hired to assist the City of Elk Grove with a variety of professional services including preparation of housing documents and completing a housing policy analysis of the Elk Grove area and comparisons to similar local jurisdictions. PlaceWorks prepared the 6th cycle Housing Element update which included rezoning properties to ensure the City was able to meet the RHNA. As a part of the rezone process PlaceWorks worked with the City to utilize the Balancing Act tool to allow the community to participate in meeting “balancing” the RHNA. PlaceWorks and staff used those results to guide the potential rezone sites that were submitted to Council for input and approval.

Solano County Transportation Authority
2021 – 2029 Multi-jurisdictional Housing Element, REAP 2.0 Collaborative Our work with the Solano County Transportation Authority began in 2021 to manage the Solano County REAP Collaborative, which included the cities of Benicia, Dixon, Fairfield, Rio Vista, Suisun City, Vacaville, Vallejo, and unincorporated Solano County. The first task for the REAP Collaborative focused on preparing regional sections for all the cities and the county for their State-required Housing Element updates. This work included preparing a RHNA, regional fair housing assessment, and completing outreach efforts that consisted of a countywide survey, and community meetings via Zoom, which allowed residents countywide to participate. Each City and the County were able to incorporate these three regional sections into the 2021–2029 Housing Element. As part of this work effort, PlaceWorks also assisted with preparing Housing Elements for the cities of Benicia, Dixon, Rio Vista, Suisun City, Vacaville, Vallejo, and unincorporated Solano County. Each city’s Housing Element included an individual site inventory, a local analysis of fair housing, an analysis of governmental and nongovernmental constraints, and policies and programs specific to addressing the housing needs of each community. As part of the update process, PlaceWorks acted as the liaison with HCD to ensure each Housing Element met all statutory requirements. Our staff also prepared the accompanying CEQA document for each Housing Element update.
Once the cities and county wrapped up their Housing Element updates, the Collaborative transitioned into assisting with Housing Element implementation. These tasks included providing the jurisdictions with updated zoning code amendment language to address new State laws and hosting a countywide Planning Commission training session to get up to speed on new laws and share ideas. PlaceWorks also worked with Solano Economic Development Corporation to host a countywide developer forum and partnered with the Housing Collaborative to create a countywide ADU resource webpage. REAP 2.0 tasks for the Collaborative include a pro-housing assessment for seven of the eight jurisdictions, a GIS-based APR tracker to assist with annual Housing Element progress reports and tracking no net loss and an affordable housing forum. » Client Information: Raffi Boloyan, Community Development Director, City of Dixon | 707.890.6609 | [email protected]

30 CITY OF MOUNTAIN HOUSE • 2023-2031 Housing Element
Public Engagement Experience
PlaceWorks has extensive experience with public engagement, including working with the public, commissioners, and council and board of supervisors. Having completed over 140 Housing Elements, each included a level of engagement ranging from community workshops, pop-up events, study sessions with planning commission and city council, as well as housing advisory groups.
PlaceWorks staff, as a part of the HCD Accelerating Housing Technical Assistance contract, started by conducting outreach meetings to 11 regions of the state to identify housing and planning-related needs. As the regions were formed, quarterly meetings were set up to discuss new State laws and statewide tools being developed in addition to encouraging peer-to-peer sharing of ideas and resources. A Planning Commission training series was created, and 18 Planning Commission trainings were held across the state in person and one that was recorded for virtual use. PlaceWorks staff also participated in pro-housing designation workshops across the state to assist jurisdictions with understanding the requirements and assisting with application assessments.
The foundation of all public outreach is effective communication. Regardless of whether the medium is written, oral, or graphics/maps, information needs to be clear and understandable. PlaceWorks’ staff is proficient in using plain language to explain the complex and jargon-filled planning process. Almost all our projects include preparing a basic project summary, whether that is used in a staff report, project website, fact sheet, or frequently asked questions. We have prepared and given numerous presentations to Planning Commission and City Council hearings.
PlaceWorks also has extensive experience developing and executing more complex public outreach strategies, and our staff are trained by the International Association of Public Participation. We are skilled in meeting facilitation and have successfully negotiated consensus during public meetings for contentious projects. We can conduct stakeholder interviews and issue assessments to identify where outreach efforts should be focused, and which stakeholders are most interested in the project and why.
Litigation
PlaceWorks does not have any bankruptcies, liens, stop-payment notices, judgments, lawsuits, arbitrations, mediations, foreclosures, or similar actions pending.

MEMORANDUM
To: SJCOG Member Agencies
From: SJCOG
Date:
RE: Mountain House RHND Amendment to Adopted 6th Cycle Regional Housing Needs Plan (2023-2031)
The incorporation of Mountain House from the unincorporated portion of San Joaquin County necessitates the development of a housing element that aligns with its Regional Housing Needs Determination (RHND). Other jurisdictions within San Joaquin County received their FactorAdjusted Regional Housing Needs Allocation (RHNA) determinations as part of the 6th Cycle Housing Needs Allocation, developed by the San Joaquin Council of Governments (SJCOG) and described in the Regional Housing Needs Plan (RHNP) adopted on September 22, 2022.1
To ensure compliance with RHNA objectives and avoid altering the Regional Housing Needs Determination (RHND) of other jurisdictions, adjustments to include Mountain House were constrained to the allocations for the unincorporated county area as adopted in the RHNP on September 22, 2022. These prior allocations for the unincorporated county area previously encompassed Mountain House.

Mountain House RHND Amendment to Adopted 6th Cycle Regional Housing Needs Plan (2023-2031)
This memorandum outlines the process used to estimate Mountain House’s specific allocation. The resulting overall allocations of lower-income and higher-income housing units for each jurisdiction remain unchanged, but Mountain House is now included as a separate jurisdiction, with a proportional reduction in the allocations assigned to the unincorporated county area. The results from this effort are presented in Table 1, which reports the factor-adjusted RHNA housing unit determination for jurisdictions across San Joquin County, including Mountain House in a structure paralleling that from Table 2 on page 9 in the RHNP adopted on September 22, 2022.
The remainder of this memorandum provides a detailed explanation of the process used to establish Mountain House's Housing Unit Determination. This process follows the same methodology as the RHNP adopted on September 22, 2022, resulting in similar narrative language. However, additional notes have been included throughout to highlight adjustments made to distinguish Mountain House as a separate jurisdiction from the unincorporated county areas.
A. Base RHNA Calculation
The first step in the RHNA Methodology is to determine each jurisdiction’s total RHNA allocation before it is divided by income categories. The RHNA Methodology determines each jurisdiction’s total base RHNA number by multiplying the total RHND from HCD by the proportion of household growth attributed to the jurisdiction in the forecast for the RTP/SCS between 2023 and 2031.

Note: Due to rounding, numbers presented in this table may not add up precisely to the totals provided.
Table 2: RTP/SCS Forecast Households in 2031 by Jurisdiction reports the results of this process for San Joaquin County. In Column A each jurisdiction’s household growth during San Joaquin County’s 6th RHNA Cycle (2023-2031) is reported based on the RTP/SCS forecast.2 The associated jurisdictional shares (Column B) are then multiplied by the County’s total housing unit need, 52,719, to get the base total RHNA determination for the jurisdictions in Column C. [This table includes the addition of 2 This report uses the San County RTP/SCS Forecast dated 9/10/2021 for these estimates. It is available here:

The second step determines jurisdictional allocations by income category according to those specified in the RHND. Table 3: Initial RHNA Allocation by Jurisdiction and Calibration to Final HCD RHNA Determination details the process for San Joaquin County. The jurisdictions’ Base RHNA Allocation from the previous table is carried forward (Column A) and those values are multiplied by the share of lower-income housing units in the Final RHNA determination (Column B) to get each jurisdiction’s base lower-income RHNA determination (Column C). The number of higher-income housing units (Column D) is then estimated by subtracting the Lower-Income allocation (Column C) from the Total Base RHNA (Column A).

Using the RTP/SCS forecast as the basis for total RHNA calculations ensures consistency between these two planning efforts. Since the RTP/SCS forecast is built from local plans, it incorporates a variety of regulatory, market, and performance factors. The RTP/SCS growth forecast has also been thoroughly vetted by local planning staff and represents a County-wide agreement on growth and its path to attaining climate and quality of life goals.
B. Lower-Income Housing Units Adjustment Factors
The framework for the RHNA Methodology is oriented around furthering each of the statutory RHNA objectives. In Table 5: RHNA Objectives and Allocation Adjustment Factors, the five RHNA objectives are listed by row and the adjustment factors used to further those objectives are listed by column. As described above, the first two objectives are furthered through the total RHNA calculation relying on the development pattern in the RTP/SCS (step one). Those objectives are also intrinsically addressed through the assignment of housing units at different income categories to each jurisdiction of the county (step two). The three other objectives are not inherently furthered by the RTP/SCS. Therefore, additional adjustment factors are needed. This section describes those factors.

B1. Adjustment Factor One: Jobs-Housing Fit Factor
This factor addresses the objective to improve the intraregional relationship between jobs and housing, including explicit consideration of the balance between the number of low-wage jobs and the number of units affordable to low-wage jobs in the jurisdictions. While the RTP/SCS addresses the overall jobs-housing balance, it does not separate the lower-income work-housing balance issue.
Therefore, this factor considers the existing ratio of low-wage workers to units affordable to lowwage workers. Jurisdictions with a higher-than-average ratio receive an upward adjustment of lowerincome RHNA units and those with a lower-than-average ratio receive a downward adjustment of lower-income RHNA units.
Table 6: Jobs-Housing Fit Factor Jurisdictional Variance reports the jobs-housing fit adjustment factors by jurisdiction for San Joaquin County. It uses the number of jobs by jurisdiction that pay $3,333 per month or less as the measure of low-wage jobs.3
Given that HCD considers households who spend
more than 30% of their income on housing to be cost-burdened, data on units for rent at less than $1,000 a month (30% of $3,333 income) are used to estimate the number of affordable housing units by jurisdiction.4 [This table includes the addition of Mountain House to the list of jurisdictions with data from the same sources as those of the other jurisdictions as well as its removal from the Unincorporated areas.]

The percentage difference between the overall county ratio of 3.01 and the jurisdictions’ ratios is then used to proportionally adjust the jurisdictions’ allocated affordable housing units. Through this process jurisdictions with higher ratios of low-wage workers to affordable housing units are encouraged to zone for more affordable housing.
B1. Adjustment Factor Two: Regional Income Parity Factor This factor addresses the objective to balance disproportionate household income distributions.
Using the existing share of lower-income households, jurisdictions with a lower-than-average share receive an upward adjustment of lower-income RHNA units and those with a higher-than-average share receive a downward adjustment of lower-income RHNA units.

Table 7: Regional Income Parity Factor Jurisdictional Variance reports the regional income parity adjustment factors by jurisdiction for San Joaquin County. It uses the number of households with an income 80% or less than the area median income divided by the total number of households in the area to estimate the lower income share.5
The percentage difference between the overall county
share of 39.1% lower income households and the jurisdictions’ shares are then used to proportionally adjust the jurisdictions’ allocated affordable housing units. By allocating more affordable housing unit zoning to jurisdictions with lower shares of lower-income households and vice versa, over time this factor intends to move jurisdictions towards a similar proportion of lowerincome households across the County.

B2 Adjustment Factor Three: Affirmatively Furthering Fair Housing Factor This factor addresses the objective to take meaningful actions to address disparities in housing needs and in access to opportunity, such as employment, higher performing schools, health care, and transportation. Using the share of existing homes in higher opportunity areas, this factor seeks to open high opportunity jurisdictions to all economic segments of the community by giving jurisdictions with a higher-than-average share of high opportunity housing units an upward adjustment of lower income RHNA units and those with a lower-than-average share a downward adjustment of lower income RHNA units.

Table 8: Affirmatively Furthering Fair Housing Factor Jurisdictional Variance reports the AFFH adjustment factors by jurisdiction for San Joaquin County. It uses the number of housing units a jurisdiction has that are in higher opportunity areas divided by total number of housing units in that jurisdiction to estimate the share of higher opportunity areas.6
[This table includes the addition of Mountain
House to the list of jurisdictions with data from the same sources as those of the other jurisdictions as well as its removal from the Unincorporated areas.] The percentage difference between the overall county share of 44.6% higher opportunity units and the jurisdictions’ shares are then used to proportionally adjust the jurisdictions’ allocated affordable housing units. Through this process jurisdictions with larger shares of higher opportunity housing units are asked to zone for more affordable housing. In doing so, this factor intends to open high opportunity jurisdictions to all economic segments.
6 In this report the census tracts identified as high and highest resource in the 2021 Statewide Summary Table of the TCAC/HCD Opportunity Area Maps are used to identify the higher opportunity areas by jurisdiction. The associated housing units in those census tracts are then estimated from the U.S. Census Bureau’s American Community Survey Table# DP04, 2019 5-Year data.

B3 Application of the Adjustment Factors
The third step applies the three adjustment factors to each jurisdiction’s lower-income units according to their respective factor weights and then uses the sum of those factors to increase or decrease the jurisdictions’ total lower-income units. Some jurisdictions have exceptionally high factor rates in comparison to the county. For instance, the job-housing fit factor reported in Table 6:
Jobs-Housing Fit Factor Jurisdictional Variance for the City of Tracy has a ratio of 13.6 low-wage jobs per affordable housing unit. That value is 351% higher than county-wide, implying that the City of Tracy’s Job-Housing Fit allocation should be increased by 351% unless some maximum factor adjustment limits are imposed. Without limits on the adjustment factors, outliers like the City of Tracy’s Job-Housing Fit ratio create an increase in the overall number of lower-income housing unit allocations.
Given the impact from exceptional, or outlier, values on a particular jurisdiction as well as the distortionary county-wide impact on allocations across income categories, the Methodology has incorporated a Maximum Factor Adjustment Value (MFAV) that sets an upper and lower limit on divergence across the adjustment factors. In determining the MFAV, the distortions of the unbound divergence must be weighed against similar distortions introduced by excessively restrictive values.
Therefore, this methodology uses an MFAV of 100% which limits any factor adjustment to a doubling of the jurisdiction’s increase or decrease in lower income housing unit allocation.

Table 9: Jurisdictions’ Lower-Income Factor Adjustment Allocations details the factor adjustment process for San Joaquin County. First, each factor’s weight is multiplied by the lower-income housing unit allocation (Column A). Doing this results in unadjusted factor weighted lower-income housing units for each factor (Columns B, E, and H). Next, each factor adjustment is applied. The percentage adjustment from the first factor, the Jobs-Housing Fit Factor, from Table 6: Jobs-Housing Fit Factor
ATTACHMENT A
Item 8.1
Mountain House Page 243 of 404
Mountain House RHND Amendment to Adopted 6th Cycle Regional Housing Needs Plan (2023-2031)
Jurisdictional Variance is reported in Column C. The value in Column C is multiplied by the unadjusted factor weighted shares from Column B and then added to Column B to get the factor adjusted jobs-housing fit unit allocation in Column D. The Income Parity Factor is second, its adjustment values from Table 7: Regional Income Parity Factor Jurisdictional Variance are reported in Column F and multiplied by the unadjusted factor weighted shares from Column E and then added to Column E to get the factor adjusted income parity unit allocation in Column G. Similarly, the adjustment values for the Affirmatively Furthering Fair Housing (AFFH) Factor from Table 8:
Affirmatively Furthering Fair Housing Factor Jurisdictional Variance are reported in Column I and multiplied by the unadjusted factor weighted shares from Column H and then added to Column H to get the factor adjusted AFFH unit allocation in Column J. The sum of Column D, G, and J then form a factor adjusted lower-income housing unit allocation by jurisdiction in Column K. It should be noted that since the MFAV is 100%, three values in Table 9: Jurisdictions’ Lower-Income Factor Adjustment Allocations are affected, the Jobs-Housing Fit adjustment factors for the City of Tracy, the City of Lathrop, and the City of Mountain House. [This table includes the addition of Mountain House and its removal from the Unincorporated areas in the list of factor adjustments by jurisdiction]
C. Factor Adjusted RHNA Determination
The fourth, and final, step re-aligns the jurisdictional factor adjusted housing unit allocations to those specified in the RHND. If San Joaquin County is to maintain the county-wide RHND across each of the income categories, it is necessary to correct the factor adjusted housing units by income category. Therefore, the percentage differences in the totals across the income levels are applied to each of the jurisdictional factor adjusted housing unit allocations to align the sum of the jurisdictional allocations to the Final Determination values.

Table 10: Factor Adjusted Allocations Calibrated to Final HCD RHNA Determination details this adjustment process. In Column A, the jurisdictions’ factor-adjusted lower-income housing unit allocations from Column K of Table 9: Jurisdictions’ Lower-Income Factor Adjustment Allocations are carried forward. Since the sum of lower-income RHNA housing units in Column A, 24,218, is higher than the 21,637 in the RHND for lower-income housing units, it is necessary to adjust downward the allocations in Column A. Therefore, the percentage difference of -10.7% at the County level (Column B) is applied to each jurisdiction’s factor adjusted lower-income housing unit allocation (Column A) to get the factor adjusted lower-income housing unit allocation by jurisdiction calibrated to the RHND for San Joaquin County in Column C. Given these adjustments, it is necessary to make complementary adjustments to the jurisdiction’s higher-income housing unit allocations. Those adjustments are made by subtracting the calibrated factor-adjusted lower-income housing units (Column C) from the base total RHNA allocation (Column D), which results in calibrated factor adjusted higher income housing units in Column E.
However, in order to keep the calibration process constrained to the control total established by the Unincorporated portion of the County in the RHNP adopted on September 22, 2022, it is necessary to separately calibrate the Factor Adjusted Lower-Income RHNA values from Mountain House and the Unincorporated area less Mountain House. Given that the two areas previously formed a Calibrated Factor Adjusted Lower-Income RHNA of 2,969 for the Unincorporated areas this value must form a control value if the addition of Mountain House is not to affect the housing unit determination of other jurisdictions in the county.7 The 3,370 Factor Adjusted Lower-Income units assigned to Mountain House in Column K of Table 9 and the 1,328 Factor Adjusted Lower-Income units assigned to the Unincorporated areas without the inclusion of Mountain House must therefore be proportionally reduced to total 2,969. Since the uncalibrated Factor Adjusted Lower-Income units for Mountain House and Unincorporated areas without the inclusion of Mountain House total 4,698, this means that the two jurisdictions must be adjusted by down by 36.8% (2,969-4,698/4,698).
As indicated in Table 10 this adjustment is applied similarly to that of the other jurisdictions to effect Calibrated Factor Adjusted Lower-Income RHNA in Column C and then that value is subtracted from their Base Total RHNA Allocation in Column D to derive their Calibrated Factor Adjusted Higher Income RHNA in Column E. [As discuss in the preceding paragraph Table 10, Table 11, and Table 12 include the addition of Mountain House as well as its removal from the Unincorporated areas along with a series of associated adjustments to accommodate these additions.]
7 This control value of 2,969 may be verified in the Unincorporated area value from Table 15 on page 35 of RHNP adopted on September 22, 2022.

Q11. Is it anticipated that significant land use changes could be proposed for the Mountain House Master Plan as the General Plan is currently being prepared? A11. There are no proposed land use changes. All of the land uses in the Mountain House Master Plan will be transferred over to the General Plan.
Q12. Is it assumed the consultant should analyze the City’s Master Plan land use designations and development standards in place of the General Plan since it has yet to be completed and adopted?

TITLE: Update and Direction on Veterans Liberty Garden Project – Design Completion, Fundraising Status, and Authorization to Proceed with Bid Solicitation MEETING DATE: January 14, 2026
PREPARED BY: Steven Pinkerton, City Manager
Jodi Almassy, Deputy City Manager
RECOMMENDATION
Staff recommends that the City Council:
1. Receive an update on the Veterans Liberty Garden project, including current fundraising totals and remaining funding needs.
2. Provide direction to continue partnering with Mountain House Developers to complete final design, anticipated by February 2026.
3. Authorize the project team to proceed with soliciting construction bids for the Veterans Liberty Garden project once final design is complete.
4. Direct the project team to return to the City Council with a follow-up update following receipt of bids to present refined cost information, funding options, and any recommended scope adjustments.
No construction contract approval or funding commitment is requested at this time.
BACKGROUND
On November 12, 2024, the City Council approved the Veterans Recognition Project to establish a public space honoring local veterans. On May 14, 2025, the City Council approved the conceptual design for the Veterans Liberty Garden and directed the project team to proceed with final design development, refine cost estimates, and continue community engagement and fundraising efforts.
The Veterans Liberty Garden is being developed as a collaborative effort between the City, an appointed Ad-Hoc Committee, community donors, and Mountain House Developers. The project includes commemorative features such as a monument wall honoring all branches of the United States Armed Forces, engraved commemorative bricks, seating, landscaping, lighting, and other site improvements intended to create a lasting civic space.
Item 8.2
Mountain House Page 266 of 404
Consistent with prior City Council direction, the park enhancement portion of the Veterans Liberty Garden was established with a fundraising target of approximately $110,000, intended to fund commemorative and enhancement features beyond baseline park improvements. Staff has returned periodically to the City Council to provide updates as the project has progressed through design refinement and fundraising milestones.
DISCUSSION
Design Status
Mountain House Developers continues to partner with the City to advance the Veterans Liberty Garden design. The project team anticipates completing final construction drawings by February 2026.
Completion of final design will allow the project to proceed to bid and establish accurate, market-based construction costs for the park enhancement elements associated with the Veterans Liberty Garden.
Fundraising and Sponsorship Status
Fundraising efforts for the Veterans Liberty Garden park enhancement elements were structured around a target of approximately $110,000.
As of January 2026, the project has received approximately $64,250 in fundraising contributions through a combination of sponsorships and the commemorative brick program. While community support has been strong, the project is currently approximately $45,750 short of the original fundraising goal.
Several key sponsorship items remain unfunded or partially funded, including:
• The monument wall, estimated at approximately $30,000 • One commemorative bench, estimated at approximately $5,000 The commemorative brick campaign has been extended through Memorial Day, May 25, 2026.
Continued Fundraising, Grants, and Partnerships
In parallel with design completion and bid preparation, the project team will continue to actively pursue additional funding sources to close the remaining gap toward the $110,000 park enhancement fundraising target. Ongoing efforts include continued sponsorship outreach, extension of the commemorative brick campaign, exploration of grant opportunities, and coordination with community partners and organizations interested in supporting veterans-related civic amenities.

While potential value-engineering options have been discussed conceptually, the project team recommends deferring any formal value-engineering efforts until construction bids are received.
Item 8.2
Mountain House Page 267 of 404
The term “value engineering” refers to identifying opportunities to reduce costs by adjusting materials, construction methods, or sequencing without changing the overall design intent or commemorative purpose of the project.
Once bids are received, the project team will return to the City Council with actual cost information and, if necessary, recommendations for limited, targeted value-engineering options developed in coordination with the Ad-Hoc Committee.
Proposed Next Steps and Council Direction
The project team is requesting City Council direction to allow the project to continue moving forward in a transparent and fiscally responsible manner by:
• Completing final design in coordination with Mountain House Developers • Proceeding with construction bid solicitation to obtain accurate, current cost information • Evaluating funding options once bids are received
Authorizing bid solicitation does not obligate the City to award a construction contract or commit additional City funding. Rather, it allows the City Council to evaluate the project with full cost information in hand.
FISCAL IMPACT
There is no immediate fiscal impact associated with the requested actions. No construction funding, budget appropriation, or contract award is being requested at this time.
Fundraising proceeds will continue to be held and applied toward eligible project elements. Any future request for City funding or authorization to award a construction contract will be brought to the City Council for consideration following receipt of bids.
STRATEGIC PLAN
This project supports the Strategic Plan adopted by City Council on April 9, 2025 by:
• Promoting civic pride and community identity
• Honoring local veterans and active-duty service members • Developing meaningful public amenities through partnerships and community engagement CEQA
Item 8.2
Mountain House Page 268 of 404
The Veterans Liberty Garden project is exempt from the California Environmental Quality Act (CEQA) as it constitutes a minor improvement to existing public facilities consistent with adopted park and civic space plans.
ACTION FOLLOWING CITY COUNCIL APPROVAL
Following City Council direction, the project team will:
• Continue final design development with Mountain House Developers • Proceed with construction bid solicitation upon design completion • Continue fundraising and partnership efforts
• Return to the City Council with a subsequent update once bids are received

Mountain House Page 269 of 404
TITLE: Direction on Economic Development Strategy Approach MEETING DATE: January 14, 2026
PREPARED BY: Steven Pinkerton, City Manager
Jodi Almassy, Deputy City Manager
RECOMMENDATION
Staff recommends that the City Council direct the City Manager to integrate economic development strategies into the City’s first comprehensive General Plan, supported by advisory services from Kosmont Companies, rather than initiating a standalone Economic Development Strategic Plan at this time.
BACKGROUND
Since incorporation in July 2024, the City of Mountain House has focused on establishing foundational planning and policy documents necessary to guide long-term growth, infrastructure investment, service delivery, and fiscal sustainability. As part of this effort, the City is currently preparing its first comprehensive General Plan, which will replace reliance on previously adopted master planning documents used prior to incorporation.
The General Plan, being prepared by De Novo Planning Group, will serve as the City’s primary policy framework governing land use, circulation, housing, infrastructure, and community development. This effort provides an important opportunity to establish coordinated policies and implementation strategies across multiple functional areas, including economic development.
Over the past several years, the City and its predecessor agency have retained Kosmont Companies to provide economic development and real estate advisory services. This work has included commercial land use analysis, market and retail research, development projections, community surveys related to retail and work-from-home trends, jobs-housing balance analysis, town center feasibility, developer fee analysis, and assistance with marketing and positioning of commercial development opportunities. Most recently, Kosmont provided updated market analysis in August 2025 and presented an “Economic Development 101” overview to the City Council in October 2025.
DISCUSSION
Economic development is a core municipal function that intersects directly with land use planning, infrastructure investment, housing policy, and long-term fiscal sustainability. As the City continues preparation of its first comprehensive General Plan following incorporation, staff believes this effort Item 8.3
Mountain House Page 270 of 404
presents the most effective and efficient framework for advancing economic development strategies in a coordinated and fiscally responsible manner.
Staff recognizes the City Council’s interest in fostering a vibrant, economically active community and establishing a strong economic foundation as Mountain House continues to grow. The recommended approach sequences economic development planning to align vision, policy, and implementation while the General Plan is under development.
Rather than initiating a standalone Economic Development Strategic Plan, staff recommends pursuing economic development goals, policies, and near and long-term implementation strategies as part of the General Plan, supplemented by targeted advisory services as needed. This approach aligns economic development direction with land use, infrastructure, housing, and community priorities within a single policy framework, while producing actionable strategies that can be implemented over time.
Community and stakeholder input on economic development priorities will be incorporated through the General Plan preparation process, including public workshops, outreach, and City Council hearings.
Integrating economic development strategies into the General Plan allows the City to leverage economies of scale by using a single, coordinated engagement process to address land use, commercial development, infrastructure, and economic priorities holistically. City Council will continue to provide policy direction throughout the General Plan process, including review of proposed economic development goals, policies, and implementation strategies prior to adoption.
In December 2025, Kosmont submitted a memorandum outlining a proposed work plan (Attachment A) to assist the City with development of an Economic Development Element within the General Plan, along with limited ongoing advisory services. The proposed scope includes:
• Task 1 – Economic Development Element Advisory Services, estimated at $35,000, to support development of economic development goals, policies, and implementation strategies integrated into the General Plan.
• Task 2 – Ongoing Economic Development and Real Estate Advisory Services, estimated at $20,000 through June 30, 2026, to provide targeted advisory support as directed by City staff and subject to budget availability.
The total cost of the proposed advisory services is approximately $55,000.
The City has already invested in substantial economic development analysis and advisory work with Kosmont Companies over multiple years. As a result, Kosmont has developed a strong understanding of Mountain House’s market conditions, development pipeline, constraints, and opportunities. Leveraging this existing knowledge avoids duplicative analysis and onboarding costs that would be required if a new consultant were retained.
By comparison, a standalone Economic Development Strategic Plan for a municipality of similar size and development stage typically ranges from $100,000 to $150,000, often requires a year or more to Item 8.3
Mountain House Page 271 of 404
complete, and frequently overlaps with General Plan policy development. Given that Mountain House is approximately halfway built out, with a population of roughly 28,800 residents, staff believes the proposed integrated approach is appropriate at this stage of the City’s growth.
Any agreement with Kosmont Companies would be processed as a sole-source consultant agreement in accordance with the City’s Financial Management Manual, based on Kosmont’s prior work for the City, specialized qualifications, and the limited, advisory nature of the scope. Any agreement would be executed within the City Manager’s delegated approval authority and subject to available budget appropriations.
Staff recommends this approach establishes a clear economic development framework while preserving flexibility to pursue a standalone Economic Development Strategic Plan in the future should Council priorities, development conditions, or market timing warrant a more expansive effort.
FISCAL IMPACT
The estimated cost for Kosmont Companies’ proposed advisory services would be approximately $55,000, consisting of $35,000 for General Plan economic development element advisory services and up to $20,000 for ongoing advisory support through June 30, 2026.
Any expenditures would be subject to available budget and executed within the City Manager’s delegated approval authority in accordance with the City’s Financial Management Manual.
STRATEGIC PLAN
The City Council adopted the Strategic Plan on April 9, 2025. This item supports the City’s Strategic Plan by promoting coordinated planning, efficient use of resources, fiscal responsibility, and alignment of economic development efforts with long-term land use and infrastructure policy.
CEQA
This action is not a project under the California Environmental Quality Act (CEQA). Any future policies or implementation actions arising from adoption of the General Plan will be evaluated for CEQA compliance as required.
ACTION FOLLOWING CITY COUNCIL APPROVAL
Following Council direction, the City Manager will continue to advance economic development strategies through preparation of the City’s first comprehensive General Plan and related implementation efforts.

Memorandum
To: Steve Pinkerton, City Manager, City of Mountain House From: Ken K. Hira, President, Kosmont Companies
Robert Valenti, Senior Vice President, Kosmont Companies Date: December 19, 2025
Subject: Work Plan for Economic Development Element & Advisory Services I. BACKGROUND & OBJECTIVE
The previous Mountain House Community Services District (subsequently incorporated as a City in July 2024) retained Kosmont for economic development and real estate advisory services including assistance with a Commercial Land Use Analysis in June 2020. Since that assignment, Kosmont has worked with the District / City on a variety of research, analysis, and due diligence exercises, including:
updates to commercial development projections, market / retail research, community surveys regarding retail / work-from-home habits, developer fee analysis, jobs housing balance research, town center feasibility analysis, and assistance with marketing for hotel / commercial development opportunities.
In August 2025, Kosmont provided updated market analysis / commercial development projections to assist with City planning / policy changes. In October 2025, Kosmont presented an “Economic Development 101” presentation to City Council, which provided an overview of economic development activities, trends, and tools.
Kosmont understands that the City is current in the process of creating a General Plan (led by De Novo Planning Group), and desires assistance with the creation of an Economic Development element, as well as other ongoing advisory services. Kosmont proposes the following scope of services covering a variety of research, analysis, and due diligence exercises.
II. WORK PLAN
Approach to Tasks: The prospective assignment and consulting services that Kosmont will provide will be of a relatively limited scope and duration, and advisory in nature. Kosmont will be making recommendations only, which advise the Client and jurisdictions, including their elected officials, appointed officials, and staff, which they can accept or reject. None of Kosmont's staff will act in a capacity as an elected official, nor appointed official, nor as staff, nor as serving in a "designated" position.
Task 1: General Plan Economic Development Element Advisory Kosmont will work with the City and De Novo Planning Group to develop an Economic Development Element for the City’s General Plan. Subtask activities may include:

TITLE: 2026 Drone Light Show – Vendor Selection, Event Date, Drone Count, and Venue Recommendation
MEETING DATE: January 14, 2026
PREPARED BY: Amanda Durbin, Communications Officer
RECOMMENDATION
Staff recommends that the City Council select a drone light show vendor for July 2026 and provide direction on the preferred event date, choosing between Wednesday, July 1, Friday, July 3, or Saturday, July 4. Council direction is also requested on the desired drone count. In addition, staff recommends Central Community Park as the preferred venue for the drone light show.
BACKGROUND
The City is planning a 2026 drone light show to support a community celebration, Independence Day, the City’s birthday, the State of the City, or a combination of these events. City Council direction is required to finalize the vendor, date, drone count, and venue, as each decision affects cost, staffing, and operations. In July 2025, the city hosted its first State of the City followed by a drone show. About 300 attended the theater program and an estimated 2,500 to 3,000 attended the drone show.
In September 2025, City Council discussed continuing the drone show in 2026 and requested clearer information on costs, staffing impacts, venue options, and vendor reliability before making a final decision.
This report returns with vendor proposals, cost comparisons, staffing estimates, and a venue recommendation.
DISCUSSION
The city received drone light show proposals from three qualified vendors: Sky Elements, Skyworx, and Electric Sky. Each vendor is capable of producing a professional drone light show; however, pricing, scale, flexibility, and operational considerations vary based on several factors.

July 4 200 $92,000 – $110,000 $16,500 $108,500 – $126,500 July 4 300 $118,000 – $127,000 $16,500 $134,500 – $143,500
VENDORS
The city received proposals from three qualified vendors: Sky Elements, Skyworx, and Electric Sky. All can deliver a professional show, but pricing and scale vary by date and drone count. • Sky Elements: Large-scale productions, higher costs as drone count increases • Skyworx: Mid-range fleet options with tiered pricing
• Electric Sky: Smaller to mid-range fleets, consistently the lowest total cost
EVENT DATE CONSIDERATIONS
The event date has the greatest impact on cost.
• July 1: Lowest vendor pricing, fewer staffing challenges, strongest cost control • July 3: Higher costs due to observed holiday premiums and staff fatigue concerns • July 4: Highest costs and greatest operational strain due to holiday demand
DRONE COUNT CONSIDERATIONS
• 200 drones: Visually engaging, aligns with 2025 event, strongest cost control • 300 drones: Larger imagery and detail, higher cost
• 400 drones: Available from some vendors, but significantly increases cost Council direction is required, as pricing depends on drone count.
STAFFING AND OPERATIONAL IMPACTS
Staffing costs increase significantly as the event moves closer to July 4 due to holiday premium pay and overlapping Independence Day operations.
Date Estimated
Staffing Cost
July 1 $8,400
July 3 $8,800
July 4 $16,500
Item 9.1
Mountain House Page 281 of 404
July 4 presents the greatest operational challenge due to fireworks enforcement, parade staffing, and public safety demands already in place.
VENUE RECOMMENDATION
Staff recommends Central Community Park as the preferred venue. The park is City-controlled, reduces coordination complexity, and avoids third-party facility costs.
If Council selects the Mountain House High School football field, additional facility use fees should be anticipated, consistent with the 2025 event. This cost would apply regardless of vendor selection and would increase the overall event budget.
FISCAL IMPACT
The total cost of the 2026 drone light show is driven by vendor selection, event date, drone count, venue, and City staffing and public safety requirements.
VENDOR COSTS (BASED ON RFP RESPONSES)
Vendor pricing varies primarily by event date and drone count. All vendor proposals include a show length of approximately 13 to 15 minutes.
July 1
• 200 drones: approximately $36,500 to $39,000
• 300 drones: approximately $52,500 to $57,000
July 3
• 200 drones: approximately $40,000 to $42,000
• 300 drones: approximately $56,500 to $59,000
July 4
• 200 drones: approximately $92,000 to $110,000
• 300 drones: approximately $118,000 to $127,000
Pricing increases significantly as the event date approaches July 4 due to holiday demand, limited vendor availability, and premium staffing requirements on the vendor side.
Item 9.1
Mountain House Page 282 of 404
CITY STAFFING AND PUBLIC SAFETY COSTS
Staffing costs are in addition to vendor pricing and vary by event date.
Based on current estimates, total City staffing and public safety costs are approximately:
• July 1: $8,400
• July 3: $8,800
• July 4: $16,500
These costs include City event support staffing and public safety staffing (security and police services).
July 3 and July 4 costs reflect holiday premium pay, with July 4 costs increasing substantially due to premium rates and overlapping Independence Day operational demands.
VENUE-RELATED COSTS
Use of Central Community Park, as recommended by staff, would not require additional facility rental costs.
If the Mountain House High School football field is selected, additional facility use fees would apply, consistent with the 2025 event, and would increase the overall event cost regardless of vendor selection.
ESTIMATED TOTAL COST RANGE BY DATE (VENDOR + STAFFING)
• July 1: approximately $44,900 to $65,400
• July 3: approximately $48,800 to $67,800
• July 4: approximately $108,500 to $143,500
Final costs will be confirmed once City Council selects the vendor, event date, drone count, and venue.
Staff will proceed based on Council direction and return with final contract terms and budget adjustments, if required.
ACTION FOLLOWING CITY COUNCIL APPROVAL
Following City Council direction, staff will proceed with vendor selection, confirm the event date, drone count, and venue, and finalize coordination with the selected vendor. Staff will also coordinate City staffing and public safety resources, confirm operational and logistical plans, and finalize cost details. If required, staff will return to City Council with the final agreement and any necessary budget actions for consideration.

S. Providence St needs to be closed only
during show time
The first location we assessed is the baseball field at Central Community Park, assuming the event will take place in the area highlighted in blue. Our launch and setup area would be positioned in the outfield. There is a convenient entrance on Providence St. that allows us to unload equipment close to the setup zone.
Because of the size of the flight volume, Providence St. would need to be temporarily closed to vehicle and pedestrian traffic during the drone show only. The performance will fly up to 400 ft, providing safe clearance above surrounding structures and ensuring strong visibility for spectators. Location also offers additional space in the event we want to increase drone count for a larger show.

The second location we evaluated is the area behind the Mountain House Unity Center parking lot. Our team can stage and launch the drones from the circular concrete pad, which serves as an ideal setup zone if the full Central Community Park is being utilized for the event.
This location provides easy access for crew vehicles and equipment, with ample space should you choose to increase the drone count for a larger show. Because the park is surrounded by tall trees, the drone performance would need to fly above the tree line. An additional altitude authorization request from the FAA would be required. This area is located within Class G airspace.

PROJECT APPROACH - STORYBOARDS AND ANIMATIONS
Animation and Storyboard Process
1 STORYBOARD DESIGNING AND CONCEPT DEVELOPMENT:
The concept development and storyboard design phase is where the drone light show begins to take shape. We start by understanding your vision, event goals, and key themes. Using this information, we create a clear visual plan—called a storyboard—that outlines drone movements, color schemes, and timing. This blueprint ensures every element is aligned with your objectives, setting the stage for a captivating and unforgettable aerial display.
2 STATIC DRONE SHOW THUMBNAILS CREATION AND REVIEW WITH THE CLIENT:
Step 2 focuses on creating static drone show thumbnails—still images representing key moments in your display. These thumbnails provide an easy-to-understand overview of the planned visuals, formations, and transitions. During this phase, we collaborate with you to review and refine each thumbnail, ensuring the show’s design remains in line with your vision and objectives. This step helps confirm the show’s overall look before moving on to detailed animation.
3 VIDEO RENDERING OF DRONE SHOW CREATED:
Step 3 involves turning your static thumbnails into a dynamic preview of your drone light show. We use specialized software to render a video simulation that showcases synchronized drone movements, lighting effects, and transitions. This allows you to experience a near-realistic version of the performance and make any final adjustments to ensure the show meets your expectations.
4 PATH FILE CREATION:
Step 4 is all about converting your approved show design into precise flight paths. Using specialized CAD software, we carefully plot out each drone’s movement and timing, ensuring smooth formations and transitions. This step lays the groundwork for a flawless performance, guaranteeing that every drone flies exactly where it needs to for the perfect aerial display.
5 SHOW TIME:
Step 5 is when all the planning becomes a reality. After final checks and preparations, we launch the drones and bring your show to life in the sky. Our team monitors every formation, transition, and lighting cue to ensure a seamless, awe-inspiring performance that captivates your audience and fulfills your vision.
20 Item 9.1

Drones are never permitted to fly over areas where people are present. Similar to firework displays, drone shows require a designated exclusion zone to ensure no one is underneath the performance for safety reasons. The image below provides an example of site plans, highlighting the restricted zone (in red) and the estimated flight area (in green). A safety buffer is also included between the flight area and the restricted zone.
To ensure a successful and safe performance, the launch site surface must be prepared in advance, with grass cut prior to setup and the sprinkler system turned off a day prior to show date to ensure ground is not wet. The restricted zone must be secured and clearly marked with signage indicating restricted access; temporary barriers such as caution tape or fencing can be used to enforce this zone. Accessibility is also important, as vehicles and staff require easy access to transport equipment and drones to the site. Additionally, while we will be using a portable generator for power, it is essential to ensure the site can accommodate these logistical requirements.
Our crew would need to be able to easily access the launch site for the setup process.
Setup for a drone light show ideally requires access to the site 7-8 hours in advance.
This allows sufficient time for unloading the equipment, programming, calibration, drone placement, and thorough safety checks.
Tear down is typically completed within about 2 hours after the performance, giving us time to load the equipment and clear the launch area.

DroneLightShows
We’ve successfully produced full drone light shows on accelerated timelines—even in as little as two weeks. However, Independence Day is one of the busiest periods of the year, and to ensure a seamless experience, it’s important that we plan ahead and allow adequate time for preparation. The more time we have, the more opportunity there is to fine-tune the animations and deliver a show that feels truly exceptional for your community.
To keep the project on schedule, we recommend beginning the storyboard discussion as early as possible. Ideally, this begins as soon as the contract is awarded.
The design phase is the most time-intensive component of the process, as it includes concept development, storyboarding, and revisions. Having ample time for review and refinement allows us to create a performance that aligns perfectly with your vision, theme, and event goals.

The Planes, Tunes & BBQ (City of Tavares, FL – March 1, 2025) is an all-day community festival featuring seaplane contests, water-ski shows, live music, BBQ and vendors all afternoon, capped off by a spectacular night-time drone show with around 300 drones lighting up the skies The City of Napa’s 2024 Independence Day Celebration lit up the night with a stunning 400-drone aerial show, creating patriotic formations over the heart of wine country. Thousands gathered for an evening of live entertainment, community festivities, and a modern, eco-friendly take on the Fourth of July tradition.
The City of Cullman partnered with Sky Elements again in 2025 to elevate their annual Tree Lighting Parade. The show doubled in size from 2024 going from 200 drones to 400 drones! The show was synced with music, ground lights, and more to start the Christmas holiday season.
The City of Weatherford brought another amazing drone show to their Christmas Tree Lighting event this November. Celebrating the kickoff to the Holiday season, they included all sorts of activities on the ground and ended the night with a tree lighting and drone show.
The Merry & Bright Christmas Drone Show in Grapevine, TX on December 1, 2025 will bring festive magic to the town with a dazzling aerial display of 400 synchronized drones lighting up Historic Main Street — a free, 10-minute winter spectacle for all ages.

TITLE: Aquifer Storage and Recovery Project Update
MEETING DATE: January 14, 2026
PREPARED BY: Karen Morgan, Utility Manager
Jodi Almassy, Deputy City Manager
RECOMMENDATION
No action required. Receive the second quarterly project progress update and provide direction, if any.
BACKGROUND
The City of Mountain House currently relies on a single potable water supply provided by the ByronBethany Irrigation District (BBID). While this supply has historically been reliable, the City is subject to a State compliance order requiring the identification and development of an alternative water supply to improve long-term reliability and resiliency.
In 2018, the City commissioned GEI Consulting Engineers and Scientists to evaluate emergency water supply alternatives. That analysis identified an Aquifer Storage and Recovery (ASR) program as a viable and cost-effective strategy to meet the City’s regulatory obligations and water supply reliability goals. An ASR system allows water to be stored underground during lower-demand periods and recovered during peak demand, drought, or curtailment events. The long-term objective of the program is to establish approximately a six-month emergency water supply, estimated at 3,200 acre-feet, which will ultimately require multiple ASR wells.
On August 27, 2025, the City Council approved the first phase of the ASR program by authorizing the City Manager to execute an agreement with Woodard & Curran in an amount not to exceed $5,292,002.10, including contingency, for grant support, environmental clearance, engineering design, land acquisition support, project management, and construction of test and monitoring wells. This initial phase is intended to confirm site feasibility, advance environmental and engineering work, and position the City to pursue grant funding prior to final well construction.
The City Council received the first ASR project update on October 22, 2025. This update represents the second quarterly update on this Council-approved project and focuses on progress to date, upcoming milestones, and overall program status.
DISCUSSION
The ASR program is being implemented as a multi-phase, multi-year effort consistent with prior City Item 9.2
Mountain House Page 383 of 404
Council direction. Current work under the Woodard & Curran agreement includes evaluation of potential test well locations, technical and hydrogeologic investigations, coordination with regulatory agencies, and preparation for upcoming environmental and engineering milestones.
The project team is working to bring on a qualified drilling contractor to initiate construction of the test bore and monitoring well sites. Mobilization and initial field activities are anticipated to begin in the coming months, subject to contractor availability, permitting, and seasonal considerations. The results of the test bores will be used to confirm subsurface conditions and inform final design decisions for the ASR production well.
An ASR system functions by injecting treated water into an aquifer during periods of lower demand and extracting that water during periods of higher demand or supply constraint. All injection and recovery activities are subject to permitting and oversight by the State Water Resources Control Board and other applicable agencies.
Staff anticipates that the overall ASR program will extend over several years. Construction of the final production well and associated facilities will be brought back to the City Council for separate consideration following completion of predesign work, environmental clearance, and confirmation of aquifer performance. Consistent with prior Council direction, staff will continue to return on a quarterly basis to provide updates on progress, schedule, funding pursuits, and key decision points.
FISCAL IMPACT
The current phase of the ASR project is funded in an amount not to exceed $5.29 million, as approved by the City Council on August 27, 2025. This phase includes grant funding support, environmental review, engineering design, project management, and the construction of test bore and monitoring well sites necessary to evaluate aquifer conditions and confirm project feasibility.
Costs associated with drilling and equipping the final ASR production well are not included in the current agreement. Construction of the final production well is a separate future phase of the program and is preliminarily estimated at approximately $8 million. Final costs will be refined through completion of the Predesign Report and confirmation of test bore results and will be brought back to the City Council for consideration at a later date.
Staff has initiated funding outreach efforts, including submission of an appropriation request to Congressman Josh Harder’s office, and will continue to pursue federal and state grant opportunities to offset future project costs.
STRATEGIC PLAN
Item 9.2

COMMUNITY CONCERNS & CITY RESPONSE
This section provides responses to public comments and concerns raised during City meetings or through official communication channels. Staff reviews inquiries, addresses key issues, and provides updates or next steps to ensure transparency and community engagement. More details about follow-ups can be found at www.mountainhouseca.gov/PublicFollowUp.
Stormwater Pond Water Level Concern – North Drago Way
A resident contacted City Council regarding rising water levels at a stormwater pond adjacent to 1370 N Drago Way, located north of Byron Road, following recent rainfall. Staff coordinated with the developer, who confirmed the pond remains under developer ownership and is operating exactly as designed for winter storm conditions, including expected seasonal water level fluctuations. The pond was inspected on December 29, and water levels were verified to be below the outlet with additional capacity remaining. No flooding or structural risk to nearby homes was identified. Staff responded to the resident and referred any further questions to the Public Works Director.
Public Safety Concern – Bethany Village Neighborhood
A resident submitted a letter to City Council raising public safety and neighborhood nuisance concerns in the Bethany Village area. Staff acknowledged receipt and assigned Public Safety to lead a coordinated review with law enforcement and Code Enforcement. Initial follow-up was completed, including information review and on-site observations, and staff will continue to assess and follow up as appropriate.

3 Central Parkway Phase 1 landscape plans, in-tract landscape plans for Tracts 3968 and 3969-3972, and northern pond improvement plans are approved. Phase 1 open space park plans, Neighborhood J park plans, and off-site arterial Phase 2 landscape plans remain under review.
Vertical construction and site development continue, with model homes open to the public. Full buildout is anticipated by spring 2027.
Neighborhood K (Lakeview Area)
Grading and in-tract landscape plans are under review. Civil improvements for Tract 3926 are nearing completion.
Commercial and Community Development
Mountain House Shopping Center (Hansen Village – Neighborhood Commercial) All City reviews are complete. The applicant is coordinating with San Joaquin County Building Division for permit issuance, as the project predates City incorporation. Site development timing has not yet been finalized.
Wicklund Crossing (Wicklund Village – Neighborhood Commercial) Planning approval (January 2025) and Design Consistency Review Committee approval (April 14, 2025) are complete. Civil and landscape plans have been approved and building plans have been finalized.
Building permit fees and applicable development impact fees, including the Community Facilities Fee (CFF) and Transportation Impact Fee (TIF), have been calculated and provided to the developer. These fees have not yet been paid. The developer has requested that the City consider a development impact fee deferral.
Staff is currently coordinating with the City Attorney and reviewing other local agency industry practices to evaluate whether a fee deferral program may be considered and, if so, under what conditions. Building permit issuance will not occur until this matter is resolved.
Mustang Square (Commercial Development)
Construction and inspections continue under San Joaquin County Building Division oversight. Confirmed tenants include Starbucks, Chipotle, Domino’s Pizza, Nékter Juice Bar, Wingstop, and Vijithea Indian Super Market.
Chipotle opened on December 24, 2025, and is currently operating. The broader commercial site remains under active construction. Due to ongoing site work, including permanent utility connections, parking availability, and exterior improvements, Chipotle has indicated that the site is not yet well-suited for a larger formal grand opening event.
Chipotle representatives have advised that a community celebration may be more appropriate later in the spring, potentially following a scheduled corporate walkthrough in March 2026, when site conditions are expected to be further along and more conducive to a public-facing event.
Singh Shopping Center (Southwest Corner of Grant Line Rd. and Mountain House Pkwy.) The project includes multiple entitlement actions to develop a 9.1-acre site with a grocery store and gas station. Initial review comments have been issued. A new Deposit Reimbursement Agreement will be executed prior to resuming processing.

Parking compliance has been verified, and staff will continue to monitor as interior improvements proceed.
Self-Storage Project – Neighborhood H (General-Commercial Zoning) U-Stor-It has proposed a three-story self-storage facility on a site zoned General-Commercial, which allows for a range of commercial and service-oriented uses. Design and entitlement materials are currently under City review, and revisions have been requested prior to completing the review.

Community Compliance Reminders
The following items reflect recurring issues addressed through Code Enforcement and Public Works coordination and are provided for informational purposes.
Pet Waste
The City continues to receive complaints regarding improper disposal of pet waste in parks, along sidewalks, and on trails. Pet owners are reminded to properly dispose of bagged pet waste using designated pet waste stations or by carrying it to an appropriate disposal location. Leaving bagged waste on the ground or in landscaped areas remains an ongoing concern, including within temporary and future dog park areas.
Yard Waste
Yard waste management remains the responsibility of each property owner. Leaves, branches, and green waste should not be placed in the street. West Valley Disposal provides standard service and additional pickup options for a fee. Yard waste that exceeds bin capacity should be stored on private property until proper disposal can be arranged.
Property Landscaping and Park Strips
Homeowners are reminded of their responsibility under the Master Restrictions to maintain landscaping in areas visible from the public right-of-way, including park strips between sidewalks and streets. This Item 9.3
Mountain House Page 392 of 404
8 includes regular maintenance of lawns, trees, and irrigation systems to prevent overgrowth and weed issues.
Non-Standard Vehicles
Parking of non-standard vehicles, including commercial vehicles, recreational vehicles, boats, and trailers, on City streets or in residential driveways remains subject to Municipal Code and Master Restrictions requirements. Improperly parked vehicles may be subject to citation or towing.
