SUBJECT: American Rescue Plan Act (ARPA) State and Local Fiscal Recovery Funds Update – Additional Allocation Recommendations and Request to Establish an Ad-Hoc Committee to Review ARPA Nonprofit Grant Applications ______________________________________________________________________ Background and Analysis
In January 2022, the City Council allocated a portion of the City’s American Plan Act Funds following a process that included a community needs survey and extensive program research. A total of $5,347,000 was allocated, leaving $258,000 unallocated from the first tranche and a balance of $5,347,000 overall.

The projects selected by the City Council spanned a variety of areas and have since been broken down into six categories, which spell out the acronym “INVEST.” These categories include: Infrastructure, Nonprofit and Community Support, Vital Services, Economic Development, Staff and Safety Needs, and Technology Upgrades.

Staff has identified a couple of additional funding needs since January 2022, both of which are aligned with Strategic Plan 27+. The projects include a request for $184,000 to be used towards fire hydrant maintenance and free summer camp sessions for Oakley residents. There are also three Capital Improvement Program projects that we are requesting a total of $900,000, which if authorized would be included in the upcoming 2022/2023 budget.

Fire Hydrant Maintenance – Request: $150,000
The Diablo Water District has requested a one-time allocation of $150,000 for fire hydrant maintenance. This request follows the transfer of the fire hydrants (both the infrastructure and the maintenance) from the East Contra Costa Fire Protection District to the Diablo Water District. The maintenance of these fire hydrants is critical to public safety and a total of 25 fire hydrants need to be replaced. The anticipated cost is

$150,000 per the estimate provided by the General Manager of the Diablo Water District.

Free Summer Camp Sessions for 2022 – Request: $34,000
The City of Oakley Recreation Division provides summer camps annually; these camps include arts and crafts, games, sports, water activities, and more. Summer camps offer youth a supervised, safe environment with benefits like social-emotional skills, building friendships, leadership, staying active, and more. One of the objectives in Strategic Plan 2027+ includes providing one free session of City-run summer camp to Oakley residents to leverage the ARPA Covid Relief funds. Staff would recommend allocating $34,000 of APRA Funds to offer free sessions of summer camps for Summer 2022; this would span five weeks of summer camp. A priority registration period would be provided to Oakley residents, and non-residents would be able to register at a later date for standard regular camp fees. In total, the City runs 5 weeks of Summer Camp, with each weeks maximum being 90 children. This request would cover all 90 children during each of the 5-week sessions (assuming these are all Oakley registrants).

In addition to funding requests, Staff is seeking the City Council’s participation in one of the current ARPA projects – the ARPA Nonprofit Grant Program.

ARPA Nonprofit Grant Program – Request: Establish a City Council ad-hoc committee to review grant applications and make recommendations The City Council allocated $180,000 towards a grant program for local nonprofits. To be inclusive, City Staff opted to issue a request for proposals and request a Council ad-hoc committee to review applications and make funding recommendations to the full Council. Staff felt this approach was more objective and transparent than awarding grants without a competitive process.

Staff is asking for two members to participate in the review of the applications the week of May 23, 2022. This timing would allow staff to bring the recommendations forward to City Council in June and execute agreements at the start of Fiscal Year 2022-2023.

Applications for the grant program may be submitted by noon on May 19, 2022.

Additional information about the program and process is available at the following webpage: https://www.ci.oakley.ca.us/grants-for-nonprofits/.

Capital Improvement Program Project’s – Request: $900,000 Project #285, Bethel Island Road Design Project (Rock Slough Bridge to Delta Road) – Bethel Island Road south of East Cypress Road and the Rock Slough Bridge are being constructed as part of a private development along East Cypress Road. This Project will design the Bethel Island Road from the bridge conform on the south side of Rock Slough to Delta Road. Currently, East Cypress Road is only way to access the developments in this area and with the construction of this project it will serve as a much-needed secondary access route to accommodate the increase in traffic volumes. When constructed, the road will consist of a 4-lane divided roadway 2 lanes in 368
each direction with bike lanes, sidewalks, median island, landscaping, and a traffic signal and intersection widening at Delta Road. COST: $400,000 Project #189, Piper Lane Drainage Channel Trash Capture Device Project - The Piper Lane drainage channel is one of the major drainage outfalls from the City of Oakley to the Delta in which the City is responsible for its maintenance and operation. This is an open channel that flows freely to the Delta and based on the new permit issued by San Francisco Regional Water Quality Control Board (SFRWQCB), it cannot convey trash to the open waters of the Delta. Historically, a large amount of trash and debris were transported to the Delta through this channel. This project will construct a new trash capture device at the upstream end of the channel near Vintage Parkway. The trash capture device will stop trash from flowing into the Delta and, as a result, puts the City in compliance with the SFRWQCB permit. COST: $200,000
Project #249, Recreation Center Emergency Generator Project - This project will install an emergency generator at the Oakley Recreation Center. The Recreation Center campus is the center of recreational activities for the Oakley community, and currently does not have a back-up power source. In periods of PG&E power outages, the operations at the Recreation Center that require electricity come to a halt. This project will install an Emergency Generator behind the Recreation Center building to provide stand-by power during periods of PG&E power outages to ensure that the Recreation Center operations will continue uninterrupted. COST: $300,000 Consistency with the Oakley Strategic Plan 27+
The actions included in this item are consistent with the following goals and objectives:

Community and Economic Development Goal
 Strategic and Thoughtful Growth Objective: Enhance Environmental Stewardship.

Community Health and Safety Goal
 Safe Streets Objective: Address streets and main arteries vulnerable to fire, flood, and traffic hazards with improving infrastructure and evacuation plans to provide for safe passage for people including emergency responders. o Sub-Objective: East Cypress Corridor Specific Plan Area.  Safe Streets Objective: Create an Emergency Disaster & Response Plan including resiliency resources.
o Sub-Objective: Ensure resiliency to power outages (traffic controls, cellular and broadband backup, generators).
369
Community and Collaborative Partnerships Goal
 Collaborative Partnerships Sub-Goal: We will foster and maintain strong relationships with our public-private partnerships to mutually benefit our shared goals. o Objective: Encourage collaboration for public safety and enforcement, particularly where there is multi-jurisdictional responsibility (e.g., fire) Financial and Fiscal Responsibility Goal
 Objective: Determine how the City will leverage its strong financial position with development revenues and ARPA Covid Relief money ($10M). o Sub-objective: Provide one free session of City-run summer camp to Oakley residents.

Fiscal Impact
There is no fiscal impact associated with this item as the adopted budget includes the City’s ARPA allocation.

If approved, this item would allocate $1,084,000 of ARPA funds towards two additional projects leaving a balance of $4,263,000 for the City Council to allocate.

Staff Recommendation
Staff recommends that the City Council allocate $1,084,000 towards three additional community projects – fire hydrant maintenance ($150,000), free summer camp sessions ($34,000) and the identified Capital Improvement Program projects ($900,000). Further, it is recommended that the City Council establish an ad-hoc committee and designate two representatives to serve on the review committee for the ARPA Nonprofit Grant Program. 370

SUBJECT: A Resolution of the City of Oakley City Council Making Findings and Denying the Project Known as “Quick Quack Car Wash at Laurel Plaza Conditional Use Permit (Cup 02-20) and Design Review (Dr 08-20)” Located in the Laurel Plaza Shopping Center on the Northwest Corner of Laurel Road and O’Hara Avenue (APN: 035- 510-009)

BACKGROUND AND DISCUSSION
At its meeting on April 12, 2022, the City Council heard the public hearing regarding the proposed Quick Quack Car Wash at the Laurel Plaza. At the conclusion of the public hearing, and after deliberation, the City Council tentatively voted three-totwo to deny the proposed application. The Council directed the City Attorney to prepare findings reflecting its findings in denying the proposed project for consideration at the May 10, 2022 City Council meeting. Consistent with this direction, attached to this Staff Report is a proposed resolution that reflects what the City Attorney understands was the Council’s decision and reasoning.

The findings for approving a conditional use permit are stated in Section 9.1.1602, paragraph (f), of the Oakley Municipal Code. To approve a proposed conditional use permit, this paragraph requires the Council to find:
“1. That the site for the proposed use is adequate in size and shape to accommodate the use and all yards, spaces, walls and fences, parking, loading, landscaping and other features required by this title to adapt the use with land and uses in the neighborhood;

2. That the site for the proposed use relates to streets and highways adequate in width and pavement type to carry the quantity and kind of traffic generated by the proposed use;
371

3. The proposed use will be arranged, designed, constructed, operated and maintained so as to be compatible with the intended character of the area and shall not change the essential character of the area from that intended by the general plan and the applicable zoning ordinances;

4. That the proposed use provides for the continued growth and orderly development of the community and is consistent with the various elements and objectives of the general plan;

5. That the proposed use, including any conditions attached thereto, will be established in compliance with the applicable provisions of the California Environmental Quality Act.”
The proposed resolution includes language reflecting the Council’s resolution of these required elements. The City Attorney understood that the Council denied the project based on its findings that the applicant had not provided substantial evidence to support the third and fourth factors (which are emphasized in the quotation above). Based on the evidence received through the hearing concerning this application, the City Attorney understands the Council’s reasoning for determining both these factors had not been met was that, as stated in the proposed resolution:
“…the noise expected to be generated from the Project would disrupt the quiet enjoyment of the surrounding and developed residential uses in the vicinity of the property on which the Project would be developed[.]”
Because the City Attorney did not understand the Council to find the first and second elements had not been established, the resolution states that those findings could be met. But importantly, an applicant must meet all five elements of the condition use permit standards for a permit to issue. Thus, the fact that some, but not all, elements can be met does not allow for a conditional use permit to be approved.

Finally, the City Attorney notes that the fifth element for a conditional use permit— concerning CEQA compliance—is effectively moot since the Council could not make the findings supporting the third and fourth elements. For this reason, the language of the proposed resolution indicates as follows:
“It is not necessary to make any finding as to the proposed project’s compliance with the California Environmental Quality Act (CEQA) as the City Council has found the applicant cannot establish requirements three and four concerning its proposed conditional use permit, as indicated above, and CEQA does not apply to “projects which a public agency rejects or disapproves.” (Pub. Resources Code, § 21080(b)(5); see also, Sunset Sky Ranch Pilots Assn. v. 372
County of Sacramento (2009) 47 Cal.4th 902, 908; Las Lomas Land Co., LLC v. City of Los Angeles (2009) 177 Cal.App.4th 837, 849.)” At this stage, the Council has tentatively denied the proposed project. But its decision will not be final until the Council has adopted a resolution making findings supporting and explaining the bases for its denial.

A RESOLUTION OF THE CITY COUNCIL OF THE CITY OF OAKLEY MAKING FINDINGS DENYING APPROVAL OF THE PROJECT KNOWN AS “QUICK QUACK CAR WASH AT LAUREL PLAZA CONDITIONAL USE PERMIT (CUP 02-20) AND DESIGN REVIEW (DR 08-20)” LOCATED IN THE LAUREL PLAZA SHOPPING CENTER ON THE NORTHWEST CORNER OF LAUREL ROAD AND O’HARA AVENUE
(APN: 035-510-009)
WHEREAS, on November 12, 2020, Quick Quack Car Wash Holdings, LLC (“Applicant”) filed an application requesting approval of a Conditional Use Permit (CUP 02-20) and Design Review (DR 08-20) to construct a new 3,596 square foot (“sf.”) drive-through car wash facility located on an approximately 0.8-acre parcel. In addition to the car wash facility, the applicant is requesting approval of vacuum and payment stations, trash enclosures, and associated site improvements (“Project”). The project site is located within the existing Laurel Plaza Shopping Center at the northwest corner of Laurel Road and O’Hara Avenue and is zoned RB (Retail Business) District: APN: 035-510-009; and WHEREAS, the Applicant’s Plans include site plan, grading plan, conceptual landscape plans, building elevations, storm water control plan, truck circulation plan, and water efficient landscape ordinance calculations; and
WHEREAS, on February 22, 2021 the project application was deemed complete per Government Code section 65920 et. seq; and
WHEREAS, the project site is designated Commercial (CO) on the Oakley 2020 General Plan Land Use Map, and zoned RB (Retail Business) District; and WHEREAS, on January 25, 2022, the City Council held a publicly noticed Work Session on the Laurel Plaza Supplemental Traffic Operations Analysis Assessment at which Council Members provided individual feedback; and
WHEREAS, on or before April 1, 2022, the Notice of Public Hearing for the project was posted at Oakley City Hall located at 3231 Main Street, outside the gym at Delta Vista Middle School located at 4901 Frank Hengel Way, outside the library at Freedom High School located at 1050 Neroly Road, and at the project site. The notice was also emailed/mailed out to all owners of property within a 500-foot radius of the project’s boundaries, interested agencies, and to parties requesting such notice; and WHEREAS, if any term, provision, or portion of these Findings or the application of these Findings to a particular situation is held by a court of competent jurisdiction to be invalid, void or unenforceable, the remaining provisions of these Findings, or their application to other actions related to the Project, shall continue in full force and effect unless amended or modified by the City; and
374
Resolution No. XX-22 Page 2 of 3
WHEREAS, these Findings are based on the City’s General Plan, the City’s Zoning Ordinance, the Oakley Commercial and Industrial Design Guidelines, the project plans, and the applicable information submitted to the City Council at its April 12, 2022 meeting, both written and oral, including oral information provided by the Applicant and public, as reflected in the minutes of such meetings, together with the documents contained in the file for the Project (hereafter the “Record”).

NOW, THEREFORE, BE IT RESOLVED, that in applying the factors required by Section

9.1.1602, paragraph (f), of the Oakley Municipal Code, concerning conditional use permits, the City Council of the City of Oakley adopts the following findings in denying the proposed application:

1. The site for the proposed use would be adequate in size and shape to accommodate the use and all yards, spaces, walls and fences, parking, loading, landscaping and other features required by this title to adapt the use with land and uses in the neighborhood, in that all applicable development standards for the RB District are met and the drive-through aisle is able to queue up to 12 automobiles, which is the industry standard for similar uses; and

2. The site for the proposed use would relate to streets and highways adequate in width and pavement type to carry the quantity and kind of traffic generated by the proposed use, in that the site is accessed from Laurel Road, the City’s highest traveled arterial street, which will eventually serve this entire intersection of commercial development; and

3. The proposed use will not, however, be arranged, designed, constructed, operated and maintained so as to be compatible with the intended character of the area and not change the essential character of the area from that intended by the General Plan and the applicable zoning ordinances, in that the noise expected to be generated from the Project would disrupt the quiet enjoyment of the surrounding and developed residential uses in the vicinity of the property on which the Project would be developed; and

4. The proposed use also will not provide for the continued growth and orderly development of the community and is not consistent with the various elements and objectives of the General Plan, in that the noise expected to be generated from the Project would disrupt the quiet enjoyment of the surrounding and developed residential uses in the vicinity of the property on which the Project would be developed; and

5. It is not necessary to make any finding as to the proposed project’s compliance with the California Environmental Quality Act (CEQA) as the City Council has found the applicant cannot establish requirements three and four concerning its proposed conditional use permit, as indicated above, and CEQA does not apply to “projects which a public agency rejects 375

or disapproves.” (Pub. Resources Code, § 21080(b)(5); see also, Sunset Sky Ranch Pilots Assn. v. County of Sacramento (2009) 47 Cal.4th 902, 908; Las Lomas Land Co., LLC v. City of Los Angeles (2009) 177 Cal.App.4th 837, 849.)
BE IT FURTHER RESOLVED, the City Council determines that it is not necessary to make any findings regarding the proposed design review associated with the Project as the City Council finds that that its failure to make all the findings required to issue a conditional use permit renders further consideration of the requested design review moot.

SUBJECT: Special Event Beer and Wine Concessions Selection from RFP ______________________________________________________________________ Background and Analysis
The City of Oakley began hosting the Heart of Oakley Festival in 2013, the goal of this event was to bring visitors to downtown Oakley while highlighting local vendors, artwork, cultural performances and more. This was the first City event to incorporate the sale of beer and wine with the goal of highlighting wine made with local grapes. A local non-profit organization utilized this portion of the event to fundraise for their large event annually.

Since 2013 the City has continued to partner with the non-profit to facilitate the alcoholic beverage sales at this event as the State does not permit local government organizations to obtain ABC event permits.

Summer 2022 marks the full return of City events including the Heart of Oakley, Harvest Festival as well as the introduction of two new events including Summer Fest and Jingle Ball. As staff look to expand these events to include beer and wine sales, these four events provide the opportunity to foster strong relationships with our local non-government organizations. It also provides an excellent opportunity for these organizations to fundraise to able them to provide services to our residents.

In March 2022 a Request for Proposals for Concession Services at the four events listed above.

Additionally, it was included in distribution in several e-Newsletters, emailed to non-profits with business licenses, and posted to various social media platforms. The deadline to apply was April 28, 2022. Staff received one proposal from Oakley Rotary Club.

DATE: May 10, 2022
TO: Joshua McMurray, City Manager
FROM: Libby Vreonis, City Clerk
SUBJECT: Adopt a Resolution to Approve Action Minutes for Oakley City Council/Oakley City Council Acting as the Successor Agency to the Oakley Redevelopment Agency/Oakley Public Financing Authority Meetings
______________________________________________________________________ Background and Analysis
Minutes are taken during each meeting to document the action of the governing bodies.

Three common methods of taking minutes are action, summary and lengthy summary/verbatim:

Action minutes typically provide a brief description of the vote taken or decision made on items and have very little narrative, if any.

Summary minutes provide limited information, typically provide if members of the public are in support or opposed to an issue, and include the vote taken or decision made.

Lengthy summary/verbatim minutes provide detailed information on items, a full discussion or transcript, and include the vote taken or decision made.

Examples of action, summary and lengthy summary minutes are attached to this report.

Government Code Section 54953(c)(2) provides that minutes shall report any action taken and the vote or abstention on that action of each member present for the action.

In its “Guidelines for Preparing Minutes for Governmental Agencies” (2015), the City Clerks Association of California recommends action or brief summary minutes as appropriate styles, indicating that “Verbatim style minutes should not be used, because verbatim or lengthy summary minutes do not serve the intent of the Government Code, which is to record the proceeding of the legislative body”.

STAFF REPORT
Approved and Forwarded to the City Council
386
Minutes taken in early years since the City’s incorporation mirrored action minutes with some information, i.e., speakers’ names- sometimes with a sentence or two to briefly summarize their comments or Council’s comments to modify an action to be taken. Post 2010, transparency in City government became highlighted and more detail was gradually included to reflect more deliberation behind actions of the governing bodies.

Over time, with requests for additional information to be included, the minutes have evolved into those resembling lengthy summary minutes, straying further from the intent of the Government Code and minute styles recommended by the City Clerks Association of California. Adoption of a formal resolution establishing action style of minutes would provide clear direction to staff and bring minutes back to the scope of the legislative intent.

During recent years, technology and budget have allowed the City to acquire equipment to record video with audio of meetings held in the Council Chambers while livestreaming meetings with closed captioning. Meeting videos are available on the City’s website for access and are kept for two years in accordance with the City’s record retention schedule. Also, meeting agenda packets are kept for the current year plus two years and provide information regarding public speakers and any handouts made available during meetings. Having lengthy summary or verbatim minutes for meetings where video already exists creates inefficiency in that staff time is spent duplicating information that already exists in video format and it is inconsistent with Government Code Section 54953(c)(2). Transparency is maintained as meeting video is available for two years following meetings and the action taken is documented in minutes kept permanently.

This year, staff gathered data from Contra Costa cities regarding the type of minutes taken for various meetings. The majority of responses provided that action minutes are taken. Some cities preparing action minutes include a list of names of speakers and comments that modify a recommendation or resolution. These items could also be included for action minutes taken during meetings should the governing bodies adopt such style of minutes.

This item was also heard by the Oakley Planning Commission during its meeting held May 3, 2022, and was adopted by a 5-0 vote. Adopting action minutes here would provide consistency for all governing bodies representing the City of Oakley.

Consistency with the Oakley Strategic Plan 27+
Action minutes combined with video of meetings provides information to the public to stay engaged in the topics of discussion and decisions made by the governing bodies. The adoption of this resolution is consistent with the City's Community and Collaborative Partnership Goal for the City to build strong community and collaborative partnerships to be mutually beneficial and co-create shared goals.

Fiscal Impact
None.
