Background and Analysis
The City of Oakley has limited in-house resources to be able to address all of the on-going maintenance needs of the public infrastructure and facilities in the community. Outside contractors have been used to supplement City staff in performing maintenance activities.
The various types of public works maintenance activities that the City needs for outside contractor resources generally are for: major street repair, storm drain pipe repair and rehabilitation, ditch cleaning, large scale brush removal from open ditches and drainage basins, tree services, striping of streets and parking lots, guard rail repair and replacement and concrete repair and street lighting repair and maintenance.
West Coast Arborists, Inc. specializes in providing municipalities tree-related services and work for many of the other agencies in the Bay Area. This firm recently performed the work for the City’s annual tree pruning contract which was successfully completed.
The award of the agreement is exempt from competitive bidding under Section 3.6.010 of the Oakley Municipal Code paragraph 8) which provides an exception for competitive bidding “For maintenance and repair of buildings and facilities.” Currently, for all such contract services above the $50,000 amount, the City Council must authorize the work by simple majority per the City’s purchasing policy.
Consistency with the Oakley Strategic Plan 27+
This item is consistent with the Strategic Plan 27+ Community Health and Safety goals.
Fiscal Impact
Approval of the resolution will authorize the City Manager to execute the On-Call Tree Services agreement with West Coast Arborists, Inc. for Fiscal Year 2024/25 and FY 2025/26, and if at the end of the term the services have been performed satisfactorily, the City Manager has the discretion to approve an extension of the agreement to June 30, 2028, under the same terms as the original agreement.

TO: Joshua McMurray, City Manager
FROM: Kevin Rohani, P.E., Public Works Director/City Engineer SUBJECT: Annexation No. 40 (Rosewood Estates SD 8787) to the City of Oakley Community Facilities District No. 2015-2 (Parks, Streetlight, Landscape and Stormwater Services)
Background and Analysis
On March 23, 2010, the City Council approved a vesting tentative map with certain Conditions of Approval for the proposed Rosewood Estates project (Subdivision 8787) (the “Project”). The Project located at the Northeast corner of Laurel Road and Rose Avenue, is currently comprised of Assessor Parel No. 035-220-035-6, which is expected to be subdivided into 58 single-family residential parcels at build-out.
The Conditions of Approval for the Project require the property owner to mitigate their project’s financial impact on the City’s parks, streetlighting, landscape and stormwater service budgets. On January 12, 2016, the Oakley City Council formed City of Oakley Community Facilities District No. 2015-2 (Parks, Streetlight, Landscape and Stormwater Services) (“CFD No. 2015-2”). CFD No. 2015-2 authorizes the annual levy of a special tax on parcels located within CFD No. 2015-2 to mitigate their financial impact to the City’s parks, streetlighting, landscape and stormwater service budgets. The property owner for the Project has requested the City assist them with the annexation of their development into CFD No. 2015-2 to satisfy their conditions of approval.
Prior to tonight’s City Council meeting, the property owner for the Project executed the attached Unanimous Approval Form. This form constitutes unanimous approval and a unanimous vote by the property owner in favor of annexing their property to CFD No. 2015-2 including the subsequent annual levy of special taxes to mitigate their project’s financial impact on the City’s parks, streetlighting, landscape and stormwater service budgets.
Consistency with the Oakley Strategic Plan 27+
This item is consistent with the Strategic Plan 27+ Park and Open Space and Finance and Fiscal Responsibility section goals.
Fiscal Impact
There will be no financial impact to the City's General Fund. The applicant has funded all costs associated with the annexation of their project to CFD No. 2015-2. The FY 2024-25 special tax rates per single-family parcel are as follows:

O (925) 625-7000 | F (925) 625-9859 | www.CI.Oakley.CA.US The Project is anticipated to consist of 58 single-family parcels. Therefore, successful annexation of the Project into CFD 2015-2 could provide up to $81,429 (in FY 2024- 25 dollars) in revenue annually when all commercial buildings are constructed. The taxes will be collected on the property tax rolls commencing in FY 2025-26.
Staff Recommendation
The conditions of approval for the Project require the property owner to mitigate their project’s financial impact on the City’s parks, streetlighting, landscape and stormwater service budgets. Staff recommends that the City Council:

TO: Joshua McMurray, City Manager
FROM: Libby Vreonis, City Clerk
SUBJECT: Adopt a Resolution Updating Job Classifications and Related Disclosure Categories as set forth in Chapter 9 of Title 2 of the Oakley Municipal Code Regarding the Conflict of Interest Code
Background and Analysis
The overarching purpose of the California Political Reform Act is to help ensure that a public officer or employee, in the course of his or her official duties, is not involved in making, or participating in the making of decisions which may foreseeably have a material effect on any financial interest of the employee. To that end, Government Code Sections 87300, et seq., require every local agency to promulgate a Conflict of Interest Code which contains (1) a specific listing of the positions within the City which involve the making, or participation in the making, of decisions which may foreseeably have a material effect on any financial interest, and (2) for each such position, the specific types of investments, business positions, interests in real property and sources of income which are reportable. All such designated employees are required to file an annual Form 700 Statement of Economic Interest.
In developing a disclosure list for the conflict of interest code, a “Designated Employee” is an officer, employee, member or consultant of an agency whose position is designated in the code because the position entails the making, or participation in the making, of governmental decisions which may foreseeably have a material effect on any financial interest. Making a governmental decision means the person: (1) votes on a matter; (2) appoints a person; (3) obligates or commits the City to any course of action; or (4) enters into any contractual agreement on behalf of the City. Participating in the making of a decision means the person: (1) negotiates, without significant substantive review, with a governmental entity or private person regarding the decision; or (2) advises or makes recommendations to the decision-maker by conducting research or an investigation, preparing or presenting a report, analysis or opinion which requires the exercise of judgment on the part of the employee and the employee is attempting to influence the decision.
It should be stressed that being listed as a designated employee (or not) does not relieve an individual from following any and all state statutes or FPPC regulations concerning conflicts of interest. This action is only an attempt by the City to appropriately notify the public of potential areas where a conflict may foreseeably arise as these individuals carry out their normal City duties.

O (925) 625-7000 | F (925) 625-9859 | www.ci.oakley.ca.us The City’s Conflict of Interest Code is provided in Chapter 9 of Title 2 of the Oakley Municipal Code which provides for the disclosure of assets and income of designated employees of the City which may be materially affected by their actions and, in appropriate circumstances, to provide that designated employees should be disqualified from acting in an order that would create a conflict of interest. Designated job classifications are subject to disclosure categories of which list is on file with the City Clerk’s Office and available through the City’s website. The Code allows changes to job classifications and disclosure categories to be made by resolution.
The Political Reform Act requires the City to conduct a biennial review of its Conflict of Interest Code on even-numbered years. The last update was September 2022.
Staff recommends the City Council add the following approved job classifications and related disclosure categories:

95 LIHTC Tenant Protections - Good Cause for Eviction
Lease Violations
Owners of LIHTC properties must have documented good cause to evict tenants. The good cause requirement provides a protection to ensure that lowincome tenants can remain in their homes. Some states such as California have implemented the good cause requirement by requiring all LIHTC properties to have a good cause lease rider and providing all tenants with a letter informing them of their rights. Advocates work with agencies to implement good cause because of the due process protections it provides to tax credit tenants. In California, having a just cause is a requirement for removing or evicting a tenant who has continuously occupied a rental unit for at least 12 months. There are two types of just cause evictions—at-fault just cause evictions and nofault just cause evictions. In simple terms, when a tenancy is terminated based on the fault of a tenant this is considered an at-fault eviction. This would be the case if, for example, a tenant does not pay the agreed-upon rent timely. No-fault just cause evictions, on the other hand, are when the property owner or landlord want to evict a tenant at no fault of the tenant, for example, when the property owner or landlord wants to move into the property. In this article, we are focusing on at-fault just cause evictions.
California At-Fault Just Cause Evictions include the following allowable causes:
- Failure to pay rent.
- Criminal activity occurring on the rental property or use of rental property for illegal purposes. It must be proven that a crime has occurred. - A serious or repeated breach of a significant provision or material term of the lease agreement. Evidence of the infraction tying the violation to the tenant will be required in court.
- Subletting or subleasing in violation of the signed lease. The landlord must be able to prove in court this has occurred. 96
