CONCERNING REQUESTS FOR ADMINISTRATIVE HEARINGS CHALLENGING

CITATIONS
THE CITY COUNCIL OF THE CITY OF OAKLEY DOES ORDAIN AS FOLLOWS:

SECTION 1. Sections 1.5.209 and 1.5.210 of Oakley Municipal Code are amended as follows:

1.5.209 Request for Administrative Hearing.
a. Any person receiving an administrative citation may contest it by filing a request for an Administrative Hearing, except that a hearing for a building violation may not be requested unless and until a Notice of Noncorrection is issued. To obtain a hearing, the citee shall file a written request for an appeal through the City’s online processing service, accessible through a web link provided at www.citationprocessingcenter.com, or by delivering the request through United States mail to the Citation Processing Center, P.O.

Box 7275, Newport Beach, California 92658-7575. The request for a hearing shall indicate the grounds for contesting the citation and fine. A citee may contest the citation by denying that a violation occurred, by denying that it was not corrected within the correction period, if applicable, or by denying that the citee is a responsible person for the violation.
b. To be effective and complete, the request along with the Bail Fee which shall not exceed that of the citation amount must be submitted through or received by the online citation processing center within twenty (20) calendar days of the date the citation was issued. Upon receipt of the hearing request, Code Enforcement staff shall schedule an Administrative Hearing.
c. Any person who intends to request an Administrative Hearing and is financially unable to make the Bail Fee as required by this section, may file a request for a hardship waiver on a form provided by Citation Processing Center or Code Enforcement staff. i. The request for a hardship waiver shall be filed with the initial hearing request through the Citation Processing Center within twenty (20) calendar days of the date the citation was issued.
ii. The Director or designee may waive the requirement for a Bail Fee only if the citee submits to the Director or designee a signed, sworn affidavit, together with any supporting documents or materials, demonstrating to the satisfaction of the Director or designee the person’s actual financial inability to provide the Bail Fee in advance of the hearing. The person requesting the hardship waiver bears the 11 Ordinance No. 5-26 Page 2 of 4
burden of establishing by substantial evidence that he or she does not have the financial ability to make the Bail Fee.
iii. The Director shall either grant or deny the request within ten (10) regular business days of receipt of such request. If the Director denies the request for a hardship waiver, the Director shall issue a written decision on the request to the person requesting the waiver. The decision of the Director shall be final. A copy of the Director’s decision shall be mailed to the citee at the address provided in the request for the hardship waiver.
iv. If the request for a hardship waiver is denied, the citee shall submit the full Advance Deposit to the City within ten (10) regular business days after the date of the Director’s decision. If the request for a hardship waiver is granted, but the Administrative Citation is upheld by the Hearing Officer, the fine shall be due and payable within ten (10) working days after the date the Hearing Officer’s decision is issued.
d. The person requesting the Administrative Hearing may choose to file a written declaration with the Hearing Officer before the hearing or personally attend the hearing on the date and time specified by Citation Processing Center once the hearing request has been approved. A failure to file a written declaration before the hearing or personally attend the hearing will be considered a non-appearance. Non-appearance by the citee shall constitute an abandonment of the request, unless the hearing was continued pursuant to Section 1.5.210(f).
e. Failure to request a hearing in accordance with the provisions of this Section shall constitute a waiver of rights to contest an administrative citation and the imposition of a fine.

1.5.210 Hearing Procedures.
a. The Administrative Hearing shall be conducted by a Hearing Officer not more than forty-five (45) regular business days after the City’s online processing center, Citation Processing Center, receives the request for Administrative Hearing, unless continued with the consent of the citee.
b. The Enforcement Officer shall ensure that the pertinent citation records are delivered to the Hearing Officer for a citation set for a hearing. The Enforcement Officer shall also make available to the citee before the hearing a copy of any additional reports concerning the citation that are provided to the Hearing Officer.
c. The citee shall be given the opportunity to testify and to present evidence relevant to financial hardship or the code violation specified in the citation. A parent or legal guardian of a citee who is a juvenile, under 18 years of age, shall accompany the citee. d. The citation and any other reports prepared by the Enforcement Officer, or at his or her request, concerning the code violation or attempted correction of the code violation that are provided to the Hearing Officer shall be accepted by the Hearing Officer as prima facie evidence of the code violation and the facts stated in such documents. 12 Ordinance No. 5-26 Page 3 of 4
e. Neither the Enforcement Officer nor any other representative of the City shall be required to attend the hearing, nor shall the Hearing Officer require that there be submitted any evidence, other than the citation, that may exist among the public records of the City on the violation. However, any such appearance and/or submission may be made at the discretion of the Enforcement Officer or any City employee or agent. f. The Hearing Officer may continue a hearing if a request is made showing good cause by the citee or a representative of the City. All continuance requests shall either: (i) be made in person at the hearing by the citee or his or her representative if the citee is physically unable to attend, or (ii) be made by a written request received by the City’s online processing center, Citation processing Center, at least 48 hours before the hearing date. If the continuance is granted, a new hearing date shall be scheduled to take place within 45 days. If the continuance is denied, the hearing shall proceed then and there as scheduled, and if the citee is not present the request(s) shall be deemed abandoned in accordance with subsection h. below. The Hearing Officer’s decision is final and he or she shall either personally give the Notice of Decision to the citee or the representative if present at the end of the hearing or request that the notice be mailed by the Hearing Officer.
g. Hearings may be held via remote two-way audiovisual platforms so long as the platforms allow the citee to fully participate, interact with the Hearing Officer, see all City documentary evidence, and offer citee’s own documentary evidence for Hearing Officer consideration.

SECTION 2. California Environmental Quality Act (CEQA).

The City Council determines that the provisions of this ordinance are exempt from the California Environmental Quality Act (“CEQA”) because the instant ordinance involves continuing administrative activities and thus is not a project, as CEQA defines, pursuant to Section 15378(b)(2) of the CEQA Guidelines. To the extent the adoption of this Ordinance constitutes a project, the City Council finds pursuant to CEQA Guideline Section 15061(b)(3) that the project is exempt from environmental review because it can be seen with certainty that the adoption of the ordinance would not have any significant impact on the environment.

SECTION 3. Severability.

If any section, subsection, sentence, clause or phrase of this ordinance is for any reason held to be invalid or unconstitutional by the decision of a court of competent jurisdiction, the holding shall not affect the validity or enforceability of the remaining provisions, and the City Council declares that it would have adopted each provision of this ordinance irrespective of the validity of any other provision.

SECTION 4. Effective Date and Posting.

This ordinance shall take effect and be in force thirty (30) days from and after the date of its passage. The City Clerk shall cause the ordinance to be published within fifteen (15) days after its passage in a newspaper of general circulation, or by publishing a summary of the proposed ordinance, posting a certified copy of the proposed ordinance in the City Clerk’s Office at least five (5) days prior to the City Council meeting at which the ordinance 13 Ordinance No. 5-26 Page 4 of 4
is to be adopted, and within fifteen (15) days after its adoption, publishing a summary of the ordinance with the names of the Council Members voting for and against the ordinance.

PASSED AND ADOPTED by the City Council of the City of Oakley this 14th day of April 2026 by the following vote:

14 STAFF REPORT
1 City of Oakley | 3231 Main Street, Oakley, CA 94561
O (925) 625-7000 | F (925) 625-9859 | www.oakleyca.gov
DATE: March 30, 2026
TO: Joshua McMurray, City Manager
FROM: Paul Beard, Chief of Police
SUBJECT: Adopt a Resolution Authorizing the Sale of Police Department Firearms No Longer Needed for Departmental Use
Background and Analysis
Shotguns used to serve as the backbone of police departments when a shoulder fired weapon was necessary. The Oakley Police Department is in possession of ten (10) police shotguns, more specifically the shotguns are Remington 870 12-gauge pump action shotguns with 18” barrels.

In 2004 the Contra Costa County Office of the Sheriff began equipping each of their patrol station houses with patrol service rifles. The Oakley Police Department was a contract of the Sheriff’s Office at that time and the original allotment of patrol service rifles, to the Oakley Police Department, totaled no more than four (4) units.

The differences between a police shotgun and a patrol service rifle are many but suffice it to say the patrol service rifle outperforms the police shotgun in nearly every imaginable way and it is a contemporaneous tool for modern law-enforcement.

Conversely, the police shotgun is rarely used in modern day law-enforcement services and it is an outdated shoulder fired platform.

Due to the fact the original allotment of patrol service rifles was no more than four (4), it was necessary for the Oakley Police Department to retain all of its police shotguns. Over the past 20 + years it has been determined it is best practice for lawenforcement agencies to equip their patrol service rifles with electronic sights and issue those electronic sighted rifles out to only one officer. This 1:1 ratio of rifles to officers is deemed to be best practice due to the fact the electronic sights are personalized to the officer and having rifle and officer agreement is critical in defensive/lethal encounters, which is the only logistical purpose of a patrol service rifle.

In 2016 the Oakley Police Department became its own stand-alone police department, and we began to purchase more patrol service rifles, but they were not equipped with electronic sights. It became optional for officers to deploy with a police shotgun, or a patrol service rifle, or both. In approximately 2019 we began equipping our patrol service rifles with electronic sights and we prioritized making sure our Approved and Forwarded to the

officers were adequately trained on how to properly use the patrol service rifle and we ceased training on or deploying the police shotgun.

Over the past four (4) years the Oakley Police Department has obtained the best practice of having a 1:1 ration of rifles to officers and it has been determined the police shotgun is no longer a viable option for the Oakley Police Department and there is no longer a need to retain our police shotguns.

The police shotguns are serialized as:

AB774478M AB774469M AB774479M RS03943B
RS92673A RS94826C
Purchase Format
I propose offering the ten police shotguns for sale to our sworn employee pool at a fair market rate. I would first offer the ten police shotguns to the first ten senior sworn members of the police department. If anybody passes on the opportunity to purchase a police shotgun I will work down on the seniority list until all sworn members of the police department have had an opportunity to purchase a police shotgun, or until the ten police shotguns have been exhausted. I will exclude myself from this process and I will not purchase a police shotgun if afforded the opportunity.

I will manage the process of determining which officers are eligible to purchase the police shotguns and making appointments with them to deliver the selected police shotguns to Glaser Arms, a firearm dealer in Brentwood, to legally transfer the shotgun from the City of Oakley to the individual officers. The individual officers will be responsible for all state imposed and dealer imposed transfer fees.

Valuations
The ten police shotguns are all over twenty (20) years old and show the wear and tear that is commonly associated with a tool of that age that is carried to the field daily. The police shotguns exhibit numerous cosmetic scuffs, scrapes and gouges as well as heavy finish wear and some surface rust. The police shotguns have also had a high number of heavy police loads (00 Buckshot loads and 1 oz. slug loads) that weighs against them. In spite of all of these detractors the police shotguns are all still safe and functional.

I have inquired of a local new/used/consignment firearm dealer, and I have checked several online firearm sale platforms. All these sources valuate the police shotguns, in possession by the Oakley Police Department, to be worth two hundred dollars 16 STAFF REPORT

O (925) 625-7000 | F (925) 625-9859 | www.oakleyca.gov
($200.00). This valuation does take into consideration the overall, and poor, condition of the police shotguns in question.

Unsold Shotguns
In the event any, or all, of the police shotguns do not sell to the sworn members of the Oakley Police Department Glaser Arms, a firearm dealer in Brentwood, has agreed to purchase them for two hundred dollars ($200.00) each.

Fiscal Impact
There is minimal fiscal impact to the City of Oakley and the total sale of all ten police shotguns would result in $2,000.00 coming to the City.

Staff Recommendation
I recommend approval of this agenda item as outlined in this Staff Report.

DEPARTMENTAL USE
WHEREAS, per Government Code § 37351, city councils may control, dispose of, and convey personal property for municipal benefit; and
WHEREAS, the Oakley Police Chief desires to dispose of up to ten firearms no longer used by the Police Department (“OPD”) or any of its on-duty peace officers; and WHEREAS, the out-of-service firearms consist solely of shotguns—lacking military-style features and select-fire capability—and are not classified as assault rifles prohibited for use by the general public; and
WHEREAS, to provide for a logical means of disposing the surplus firearms, OPD shall first offer to resell the used firearms to active duty Oakley peace officers at fair market value, with offers based on officer seniority; and
WHEREAS, if any of the aforementioned firearms remain in OPD’s possess after the offer to sell to senior peace officers, the Department shall resell the remaining firearms to Glaser Arms, a Federal Firearms License (“FFL”) dealer in Brentwood, California, at trade-in value; and
WHEREAS, the Police Chief shall ensure the used firearms are resold in strict conformity with the process outlined above; and
WHEREAS, allowing OPD to resell used surplus firearms will help offset the cost of equipment upgrades and save taxpayer money.

NOW, THEREFORE, BE IT RESOLVED that the City Council of the City of Oakley authorizes the Police Chief, or his designee from OPD, to dispose of the aforementioned firearms first to active peace officers, and therefore, to resell any remaining firearms to Glaser Arms, an FFL dealer.

TO: Joshua McMurray, City Manager
FROM: Billilee Saengchalern, Public Works Director/City Engineer SUBJECT: Creating Zone 202 within the Oakley Special Police Tax Area consisting of the Delta Pointe Plaza project located north of Newman Way and Journey Way (APN 037-160-047-9)
Background and Analysis
On March 7, 2024, the City Planning Department approved plans with certain Conditions of Approval for the proposed Delta Pointe Plaza project (the “Project”). The Project is designated as Commercial Downtown in the Oakley General Plan and zoned SP-4 (Downtown Specific Plan) district on the City of Oakley Zoning Map. The Project is currently comprised of APN 037-160-047-9, which is expected to be developed into a mixed-use building with one residential unit and 6,800 square feet of commercial space on the first floor and seven residential units on the second floor.

The Conditions of Approval for the Project require the Developer to mitigate the financial impact their project has on the City’s police services budget. The City of Oakley previously formed the Oakley Special Police Tax Area that authorizes the levy of an annual special tax on parcels to mitigate their financial impact to the City’s police services budget. The property owner for the Project has requested the City assist with annexing the Project into the Oakley Special Police Tax Area to satisfy their Conditions of Approval.

Beginning May 2016, the City established its own police department and no longer contracts with the Sheriff’s office to provide public safety. In order to ensure that revenue grows at a rate sufficient to cover the cost of providing police services, City Council approved Resolution No. 113-16 on July 12, 2016 that allows for an adjustment in the annual tax per parcel by the increase in the Consumer Price Index for all Urban Consumers for the San Francisco-Oakland-Bay Area to become effective July 1, 2016.

Adoption of the attached resolution and introduction of the attached ordinance will set an election date for May 18, 2026, which shall be conducted by the City Clerk via a mail ballot election. The vote will then be ratified at the May 26, 2026 regular City Council meeting, and the ordinance will take effect at that time assuming a favorable vote.

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.

There will be no financial impact to the City's General Fund. The applicant has funded all costs associated with the annexation of Zone 202 to the Oakley Special Police Tax Area. The Fiscal Year 2025-26 special tax rate is $2,695.08/parcel for developed commercial parcels and $673.77/parcel for vacant commercial parcels. The Project is anticipated to consist of 6,800 square feet of commercial space and eight residential units. Successful creation of the Zone is expected to provide up to $2,695.08 (in Fiscal Year 2025/26 dollars) in revenue annually at build-out. The taxes can be collected on the property tax rolls commencing in Fiscal Year 2026/27.

Staff Recommendation
The Conditions of Approval for the Delta Pointe Plaza project located north of Newman Way and Journey Way (APN 037-160-047-9) require the property owner to mitigate their financial impact on the police services budget. Adoption of this resolution and ordinance will set an election to be held on May 18, 2026. The election will then be ratified at the May 26, 2026, regular City Council meeting.

CITY OF OAKLEY
ORDINANCE NO. __-26

AN ORDINANCE OF THE CITY OF OAKLEY ESTABLISHING
OAKLEY SPECIAL POLICE TAX AREA ZONE 202 WITHIN THE OAKLEY

SPECIAL POLICE TAX AREA FOR A SPECIAL TAX FOR POLICE PROTECTION

SERVICES FOR THE DELTA POINTE PLAZA PROJECT LOCATED NORTH OF NEWMAN WAY AND JOURNEY WAY (APN 037-160-047-9)
The Voters of the City of Oakley do ordain as follows:

Section 1. Purpose, Intent and Authority.

It is the purpose and intent of this Ordinance to authorize the levy of a special tax on real property that is within Oakley Special Police Tax Area Zone 202 of the Oakley Special Police Tax Area as shown on the Exhibit A map attached hereto in order to provide funding for police protection to serve the property and persons within said Zone.

This Tax is a special tax within the meaning of Section 4 of Article XIIlA of the California Constitution. Because the burden of this tax falls upon property, this tax also is a property tax, but this tax is not determined according to nor in any manner based upon the value of property; this tax is levied on a parcel and use of property basis. Insofar as not inconsistent with this Ordinance or with legislation authorizing special taxes and insofar as applicable to a property tax that is not based on value, such provisions of the California Revenue and Taxation Code and of Article XIII of the California Constitution as relate to ad valorem property taxes are intended to apply to the collection and administration of this tax (Section 4 of this Ordinance), as authorized by law.

The revenues raised by this tax are to be used solely for the purposes of obtaining, furnishing, operating, and maintaining police protection equipment or apparatus, for paying the salaries and benefits of police protection personnel, and for such other police protection service expenses as are deemed necessary for the benefit of the residents of Zone 202.

This Ordinance is enacted pursuant to the authority of Government Code Section 53978.

Section 2. Definitions.

The following definitions shall apply throughout this Ordinance.

A. "Constant first year dollars" shall mean an actual dollar amount which, in years subsequent to the first fiscal year the tax is levied, shall have the same purchasing price as the base amount in first fiscal year dollars as measured by the actual cost of services 26 for the City of Oakley's cost of obtaining police services. The base amount shall be the amount of tax per parcel as specified in Section 3.A herein. The adjustments from actual to constant dollars shall be made by use of the actual cost of services, as specified in Section 3.B herein.

B. "Fiscal year" means the period of July 1 through the following June 30.

C. "Oakley Special Police Tax Area" includes all properties within the jurisdictional limits of the City of Oakley.

D. Oakley Special Police Tax Area Zone 202 (hereinafter called "Zone") means that portion of the incorporated area of the City of Oakley located within the boundaries as shown on the map Exhibit A hereto.

E. "Parcel" means the land and any improvements thereon, designated by an assessor's parcel map and parcel number and carried on the secured property tax roll of Contra Costa County. For the purposes of this Ordinance, parcel does not include any land or improvements outside the boundaries of the Zone, nor any land or improvements owned by any governmental entity.

F. Pursuant to Government Code §53978, "voter" means a person owning real property within the Zone at the time this Ordinance was adopted, as shown on the last equalized assessment role prepared by the Contra Costa County Assessor's Office.

Section 3. Amount and Level of Taxes.

The tax per year on each parcel in the Zone shall not exceed the amount applicable to the parcel, as specified below.

A. For First Fiscal Year:

The tax per year for the first fiscal year (July 1, 2025 through June 30, 2026) shall be the amount of Tax Per Parcel for a Property Use Code Category as set forth on Exhibit B hereto. If any new development, including new residential units, is completed prior to the tax being effective for the first fiscal year, the owner of the Parcel, as shown on the latest assessment roll, shall pay the tax for the remainder of such fiscal year on a prorated basis to the City, no later than receipt of Certificate of Occupancy or final building permit inspection.
27 B. For Subsequent Fiscal Year:

The tax rates shown in Exhibit B shall be automatically adjusted on July 1 of each year, beginning on July 1, 2026, by the increase in the Consumer Price Index for all Urban Consumers for the San Francisco-Oakland Bay Area and applying that rate to the prior year amounts for each property use code category. However, the City Council reserves the right to itself the opportunity to adjust the rate in the following year if the CPI adjustment is insufficient to reimburse the City for the costs of providing levels of police services as approved by the City Council.

In no event shall the tax per parcel for any fiscal year be less than the amount established for the previous fiscal year.

C. The taxes levied on each parcel pursuant to this Article shall be a charge upon the parcel and shall be due and collectible as set forth in Section 4, below.

Section 4. Collection and Administration.

A. Taxes as Liens Against the Property.

The amount of taxes for each parcel each year shall constitute a lien on such property, in accordance with Revenue and Taxation Code Section 2187, and shall have the same effect as an ad valorem real property tax lien until fully paid.

B. Collection.

The taxes on each parcel shall be billed on the secured roll tax bills for ad valorem property taxes and are to be collected in the same manner in which the County of Contra Costa collects secured roll ad valorem property taxes. Insofar as feasible and insofar as not inconsistent with this Ordinance, the times and procedure regarding exceptions, due dates, installment payments, corrections, cancellations, refunds, late payments, penalties, liens, and collections for secured roll ad valorem property taxes shall be applicable to the collection of this tax. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in the foregoing, as to this tax:
i) The secured roll tax bills shall be the only notices required for this tax, and ii) The homeowners and veterans exemptions shall not be applicable because such exemptions are determined by dollar amount of value.

C. Costs of Administration by County.

The reasonable costs incurred by the County officers collecting and administering this tax shall be deducted from the collected taxes.
28 Section 5. Severability Clause.

If any article, section, subsection, sentence, phrase or clause of this Ordinance is for any reason held to be invalid, such decision shall not affect the validity of the remaining portion of this Ordinance. The voters of the Zone hereby declare that they would have adopted the remainder of this Ordinance, including each article, section, subsection, sentenced phrase or clause, irrespective of the invalidity of any other article, section, subsection, sentence, phrase or clause.

Section 6. Effective Date and Posting.

This Ordinance shall take effect immediately upon its confirmation by two-thirds of the voters voting within the Zone in an election to be held on May 18, 2026 so that taxes shall first be collected hereunder for the tax year beginning July 1, 2026. If not confirmed by two-thirds of the voters participating in the election, this Ordinance and the tax approved herein shall not become effective.

The foregoing ordinance was adopted with the reading waived at a regular meeting of the Oakley City Council on May 26, 2026, by the following vote:

DATE: April 14, 2026
TO: City Council
FROM: Joshua McMurray, City Manager
SUBJECT: Adopt a Resolution Approving an Assignment of the Current Five-Year Lease Agreement Between the City and Mulehead Growers, LLC to Brownstone Growers, LLC for City-Owned Property Located at 1785 Walnut Meadows Drive, Oakley (APN 037-141-006) and Authorizing the City Manager to Execute the Agreement
Background and Summary
In March 2011, the City entered into a ten-year lease agreement with Mulehead Growers, LLC (hereinafter “Mulehead”) for the preservation of grape vines. The Agreement allowed Mulehead to transplant, plant, cultivate and harvest grape vines in the vacant 5.7-acre lot. This arrangement was advantageous to the City due to reduced maintenance responsibility of the parcel.

The original agreement term was March 1, 2011 to February 28, 2021 but brought forth to the City Council in February of 2021 for a short-term extension. This short-term extension was to allow Mulehead to continue the maintenance of the vineyard through December 31, 2021. At the time of the extension, Mulehead was not interested in continuing the long-term lease due to declining yield from the vines and low prices for grapes. However, they agreed to continue the care and maintenance of the vineyard while a request for proposals was done to solicit proposals for the continued use of the property. Due to staff transitions, proposals were not solicited. Mulehead staff then reached out in early 2022 to express interest in a five-year lease. That five-year lease was approved by the City Council on April 12, 2022.

Mulehead has stated that they no longer want to farm the property and have asked that we assign the lease to Brownstone Growers, LLC (Brownstone). Although the lease is currently with Mulehead, Brownstone is currently farming and maintaining the property for them, so the assignment makes sense and would allow for a seamless transition.

The one term of the agreement that is changing is the lease rate which is currently $2,250 per month and is proposed to be reduced to $1,500 per month. The reduction reflects the current state of the wine industry in general but more specifically to Oakley, the reduced interest from buyers of the grapes that are grown on this property and others. Brownstone is operated by a local farmer and would like to continue to farm the property until the end of the lease and then at that time the City and Brownstone can reevaluate.

Approved and
Forwarded to the
City Council

During the term of the original lease agreement and the subsequent agreements, Mulehead, through Brownstone, has successfully completed vine relocation, provided a water source, and maintained the property as outlined in the agreement terms. The proposed Lease Agreement will continue the preservation of the vines, upkeep of the parcel, and eliminate any City maintenance cost for the property.

Consistency with the Oakley Strategic Plan 27+
The actions included in this item are consistent with the following goals and objectives:

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.

Fiscal Impact
The Lease Agreement provides for General Fund revenue of $1,500 per year for the rest of the five-year term. The City will also save General Fund money that would have otherwise been spent on site maintenance.

Staff Recommendation
Staff recommends that the City Council adopt the resolution approving the assignment of the current five-year lease agreement between the City and Mulehead Growers, LLC to Brownstone Growers, LLC for city-owned property located at 1785 Walnut Meadows Drive, Oakley (APN 037-141-006) and authorizing the City Manager to execute the agreement

[Four-Fifths Vote Required]
Background and Analysis
At its March 10, 2026 regular meeting, City Council approved the Bridgehead Industrial Project. Approval of the project required amending the General Plan’s land use designation on a portion of the project from “Commercial” to “Light Industrial,” as well as rezoning the subject property to a “Planned Unit Development” (“PUD”) or “P1” District.

The PUD proposed a variety of land uses. Among the uses proposed: a “Data Center.” After public comments, the project applicant requested to remove Data Center from the list of allowable uses; thereby making it a prohibited use within the project. After deliberation, members of the Council agreed that, as a condition for approving the project, Data Centers should be removed as a permissible land use within the PUD. Further, Council directed Staff to present a proposed moratorium ordinance for consideration at a future Council meeting.

State law permits the City to adopt a temporary moratorium ordinance—prohibiting otherwise permitted uses—when those uses conflict with potential land use proposals that the City is considering, studying, or intending to study within a reasonable time. Adoption of such ordinances require a four-fifths vote of the Council. As part of the moratorium ordinance, the Council must find that there is a current and immediate threat to the public health, safety or welfare of City residents.

Data Centers provide the necessary computing hardware—servers, storage systems, and networking equipment—for the digital economy. However, communities nationwide are experiencing the repercussions from accelerating Data Center land uses, including: increased demands for energy and water consumption; increased noise; crime and security issues; diminished air quality; pollution; aesthetic impacts; and decreased property values and quality of life to surrounding neighborhoods.

4903-5016-6685.1 CITY HALL | 3231 Main Street, Oakley, CA 94561 2 O (925) 625-7000 | F (925) 625-9859 | www.oakleyca.gov
Existing utility infrastructure, especially in smaller communities, is often unable to support Data Centers’ intensive demand for electricity, water, and sewage systems.

Currently, the City of Oakley Municipal Code (“OMC”) does not regulate, nor define, Data Center land uses. By enacting a temporary moratorium, Council and Staff would have the necessary breathing room to study, deliberate, and determine the acceptable scope of Data Center land uses within City limits. Meanwhile, the City shall not receive, accept, process, or approve any Data Center land use application as long as the ordinance is in effect, including any requests to amend an existing P-1 District to add Data Center as an allowable use.

The proposed urgency ordinance will enable Staff to evaluate impacts, gather public input, and ultimately draft zoning regulations that foster economic growth while protecting the City’s residents. Per Government Code section 65858, an urgency ordinance may initially be enacted for a period of up to 45 days. The City Council thereafter may extend the ordinance up to a maximum of two additional times: first, for a period of 10 months and 15 days; and second, for a period of up to one year. In total, the urgency moratorium may last for two years.

As a condition for adoption of the proposed urgency ordinance, the City Manager, or designee, would be required to prepare a report—describing the measures taken to alleviate the condition which led to adoption of the ordinance—for presentation to the City Council no later than ten days prior to its expiration. Staff believes the Planning Commission would be the proper body to prepare a detailed analysis of the issues concerning, and approaches to regulating, Data Center land uses within City limits.

Consistency with the Oakley Strategic Plan 27+
The proposed Urgency Ordinance would further the Community Health and Safety goal in that it would be designed to prioritize healthy neighborhoods—for the benefit of City residents.

Fiscal Impact
Adoption of this Urgency Ordinance would not result in a direct fiscal impact on the General Fund.

Staff Recommendation
Staff recommends that the City Council consider a temporary moratorium on Data Center land uses. Should four-fifths of the City Council vote to enact this Urgency Ordinance, the Ordinance would become effective immediately for a period of 45 days, unless extended.

IMPOSING A TEMPORARY MORATORIUM PROHIBITING THE PROCESSING AND

APPROVAL OF NEW DATA CENTER LAND USE APPLICATIONS WITHIN CITY

LIMITS TO ALLOW FOR EVALUATION OF THE PUBLIC HEALTH AND

ENVIRONMENTAL IMPACTS AND THE ENACTMENT OF FURTHER AND

APPROPRIATE REGULATIONS CONCERNING THE SAME
WHEREAS, “Data Centers” provide the necessary computing hardware—servers, storage systems, and networking equipment—to power the digital economy; such hardware enables large-scale software systems to handle traditional computational workloads, supports cloud-based storage and web services, and provides the massive processing capabilities required for generative artificial intelligence; and WHEREAS, the Oakley Municipal Code (“OMC”) does not currently regulate Data Center land uses, nor has the City previously approved any Data Center use permit within jurisdictional limits; and
WHEREAS, at its City Council meeting on March 10, 2026, the Council held a public hearing regarding the Bridgehead Industrial Project, in which it received extensive public testimony concerning the potential and asserted impacts to public health and the environment should any developer apply for, and receive, a Conditional Use Permit for a Data Center land use; and
WHEREAS, pursuant to the City of Oakley’s police power, the City Council of the City of Oakley has the authority to enact and enforce ordinances and regulations for the public peace, morals, and welfare of the City and its residents; and WHEREAS, California Government Code Section 65858 provides that, without following the procedures otherwise required prior to the adoption of a zoning ordinance and for the purpose of protecting the public safety, health and welfare, the City Council may adopt, as an urgency measure, an interim ordinance prohibiting any uses which may be in conflict with “a contemplated general plan, specific plan, or zoning proposal that the City Council, planning commission or the planning department is considering or studying or intends to study within a reasonable time”; and
WHEREAS, consistent with the above authority, and in response to conditions and evidence of which it has recently become aware, the City Council desires to adopt a moratorium prohibiting the processing and approval of Data Center land uses to allow for evaluation of the acceptable scope and development standards of such uses within City limits; and
WHEREAS, for the reasons more fully described within, the City Council determines, by at least a four-fifths (4/5) vote, that this Urgency Ordinance is a matter of City-wide importance, is a reasonable and necessary measure designed for the immediate 53 Ordinance No. XX-26 Page 2 of 3
preservation and protection of the public health, safety, or welfare of the community; and is in accordance with the public purposes and provisions of applicable State and local laws and requirements.

NOW, THEREFORE, THE CITY COUNCIL OF THE CITY OF OAKLEY DOES ORDAIN AS FOLLOWS:

SECTION 1. MORATORIUM FINDINGS.

A. Data Center development has the potential for significant and immediate impacts on the health, safety, and welfare of the citizens of Oakley through significantly increased energy and water consumption, pollution, noise, and other disturbances, as well as the potential to significantly impact the City’s aesthetic values and community resources.

B. Without the imposition of a temporary moratorium on Data Center development within the City, the City may be required to process permit applications for such development— without proper study and deliberation of how to regulate Data Center land uses while also safeguarding against the adverse impacts such uses may have on the City’s utility infrastructure and the quality of life of its residents.

C. The adoption of this Urgency Ordinance is necessary to protect the City and its residents, businesses, and visitors from the potential health and safety impacts of Data Center land uses; and to preserve the quality of life, health, safety, and welfare of the community.

D. Imposition of the moratorium will allow the City sufficient time to prepare a comprehensive ordinance for the regulation of Data Center land uses—setting forth their placement and operational conditions—moving forward.

E. Preparation of comprehensive Data Center zoning regulations will require study, public hearings, and both Planning Commission and City Council review.

F. In light of these findings and all evidence in the record, including, but not limited to the staff report accompanying this Urgency Ordinance, the City Council finds that this moratorium is justified in accordance with Government Code section 65858.

SECTION 2. IMPOSITION OF MORATORIUM.

For so long as this Ordinance is in effect, including through any extension, the City shall not receive, accept, process, or approve any application for a Data Center land use.

SECTION 3. CEQA FINDING.

The City Council determines that the provisions of this ordinance are exempt from the California Environmental Quality Act (“CEQA”) because the instant ordinance involves continuing administrative activities and thus is not a project, as CEQA defines, pursuant 54 Ordinance No. XX-26 Page 3 of 3
to Section 15378(b)(2) of the CEQA Guidelines. To the extent the adoption of this Ordinance constitutes a project, the City Council finds pursuant to CEQA Guideline Section 15061(b)(3) that the project is exempt from environmental review because it can be seen with certainty that the adoption of the ordinance would not have any significant impact on the environment.

SECTION 4. REPORT.

The City Manager, or designee, is authorized and directed to prepare the report required by paragraph (d) of California Government Code Section 65858 describing the measures taken to alleviate the condition which led to adoption of this Ordinance—for presentation to the City Council—no later than ten days prior to the expiration of this Ordinance.

SECTION 5. EFFECTIVE DATE; FOUR-FIFTHS VOTE REQUIRED.

This Ordinance shall become effective immediately upon adoption if adopted by at least a four-fifths (4/5) vote of the total members of the City Council and shall be in effect for forty-five (45) days from the date of adoption, unless extended by the City Council as provided in California Government Code Section 65858.

SECTION 6. PUBLICATION.

The City Clerk shall certify to the passage of this Ordinance and shall cause this Ordinance or a summary thereof to be printed once within fifteen (15) days after its adoption in a newspaper of general circulation, published and circulated in the City of Oakley.

PASSED AND ADOPTED by the City Council of the City of Oakley this 14th day of April 2026 by the following vote:

From: Paul Beard, Chief of Police
CC:

Subject: Council Follow-up, Annual Police Department Update On March 24, 2026 I provided my annual department update to the City Council. At the close of the update Councilmember Williams expressed curiosity about the number of rapes that had been reported to the Oakley Police Department in 2025.

Factually speaking the number of rapes that had been reported to us was 13 and those 13 cases represented a 63% increase over 2024.

Councilmember Williams’ specific question was in how many of those 13 cases was the suspect known to the victim. I did not readily know this answer but I had Records Supervisor Fagardo dive into the cases, and it has been determined in 12 cases the suspect was known to the victim. In the one remaining case the victim refused to cooperate with the investigation, so the relationship is unknown.

Although the increase in the number of rapes reported to us is concerning I believe the known relationship factors of these cases speak to the fact that we do not have a rash of stranger rapes occurring in Oakley, which would be even more concerning.

I have also determined, via social media, Councilmember Williams is being responsive to a constituent regarding our DUI stats. The question that came up on social media was how many of our 76 DUI arrests were due to any work we had done under grants. Statistically we ran one DUI checkpoint and 12 DUI saturation patrols in 2025 utilizing an Office of Traffic Safety (OTS) grant we received. The following are the results of those grant operations:

DUI checkpoint- 1 arrest
DUI saturation patrols: 5 arrests
In short, 6 of the 76 DUI arrests made during 2025 came as the result of the OTS grant.

I believe this answers any follow-up that is desired, but if more information is requested please let me know.
