FROM: Sean deMetropolis, Fire Chief

1. SUBJECT
Agreement with The Jungle Nursery, Inc. for weed abatement services for Fiscal Year 2023-2024.

2. SUMMARY
The Fire Department is requesting City Council approval for the renewed Professional Services Agreement between the City of Orange and The Jungle Nursery, Inc. for Fiscal Year 2023-2024 for Fire Department weed abatement services on City and private lots. The majority of these services are designated for City owned lots.

3. RECOMMENDED ACTION

4. FISCAL IMPACT
The total expenditure for this agreement is not-to-exceed $96,250 and will be funded through General Fund (100).

5. STRATEGIC PLAN GOALS
Goal 1: Provide for a safe community
b. Provide and maintain infrastructure necessary to ensure the safety of the public.

6. DISCUSSION AND BACKGROUND
The Fire Department’smission is “toprevent or minimize the loss of life, damage to the environment, and loss of property from fire, medical emergencies, and hazardous conditions.”The Fire Department coordinates the clearing of dead vegetation from certain designated City owned lots to mitigate the risk of fires in the wildland urban interface areas. There are over twenty City owned lots that a private landscape company clears twice a year. Most of these lots are alongside roadways, in parks, creek beds, and open areas. In addition, the Fire Department is responsible for ensuring private property owners clear their own lots. If private property owners fail to clear their lots after multiple notices, the Fire Department will arrange for a private vendor to perform the service. Should this service be required, it is the responsibility of the property owner to reimburse the City.

The Jungle Nursery, Inc. has provided this service since 2013, receiving the highest RFP score based on customer service (ability to assign a lead worker to the project), previous experience, and City of Orange Printed on 7/20/2023Page 1 of 2

based on customer service (ability to assign a lead worker to the project), previous experience, and competitive cost. During this time, the Jungle Nursery has maintained pricing for lot clearance and have increased “as needed” weed spraying costs by 5%. The Fire Department has been extremely satisfied with services provided and is requesting to renew the Weed Abatement Services Agreement with this vendor for Fiscal Year 2023-2024. The one-year cost for the Agreement is not-to-exceed $96,250, of which approximately $90,000 is dedicated for weed abatement efforts on City property.

The average annual expenditure for weed abatement services over the past 5 years is approximately $70,000. This amount will vary from year to year depending on the amount of precipitation and vegetation growth within the City owned parcels.

1. SUBJECT
Second Amendment to agreement with Protel Communications, Inc. DBA ProTelesis for replacement desk phones.

2. SUMMARY
This is a Second Amendment to a VoIP telephone service support agreement with ProTelesis authorizing the purchase and installation of replacement desk phones.

3. RECOMMENDED ACTION
Approve the second amendment to agreement with Protel Communications, Inc. doing business as ProTelesis in the amount of $132,816.26 for replacement desk phones; and authorize the Mayor and City Clerk to execute on behalf of the City.

4. FISCAL IMPACT
The total expenditure for this amendment is $132,816.26, for a total agreement cost of $359,224.61 and will be funded through Computer Replacement (790):

Phone System Refresh (20509) $127,166.75
IT System Improvements (20281) 5,649.61
Total $132,816.26

5. STRATEGIC PLAN GOALS
Goal 4: Provide outstanding public service
c: Enhance technology to improve public accessibility to information and services.

6. DISCUSSION AND BACKGROUND
On April 11, 2023, the City Council approved a first amendment with ProTelesis which addressed hardware replacement of end-of-life Shoretel equipment. In that timeframe, Mitel had made overtures that the City’s existing Shoretel desk phones would be compatible with the new Mitel hardware and software.

Unfortunately, Mitel recently made the decision to not make the Shoretel desk phones compatible.

Therefore, this second amendment is required to purchase the remaining Mitel desk phones (approximately 525) in order to complete the upgrade that was approved in April.

2. SUMMARY
Plans and specifications have been completed and the Annual Slurry Seal at Various Locations, Fiscal Year 2023-2024 is ready to be advertised for bids. The total estimated construction cost including 15% for contingencies and construction engineering is $590,000.

3. RECOMMENDED ACTION
Approve plans and specifications and authorize advertising for Bid No. 23-24.03; SP-4259.

4. FISCAL IMPACT
The total expenditure for this contract is $590,000 and will be funded in Pavement Management Program (13120) through Road Maintenance Rehabilitation Account (274).

5. STRATEGIC PLAN GOALS
Goal 1: Provide for a safe community
b: Provide and maintain infrastructure necessary to ensure the safety of the public.

Goal 4: Provide outstanding public service
b: Provide facilities and services to meet customer expectations.

6. DISCUSSION AND BACKGROUND
The Annual Slurry Seal Project at Various Locations Fiscal Year 2023-2024 (FY 24) is part of the City’sFY 24 Annual Street Maintenance activities and is designed to prolong pavement life of city streets. Rehabilitation methods vary depending on the sustained damage, but in general, consist of slurry seal with localized areas of pavement reconstruction as needed. The rehabilitated pavement will have a longer service life and will provide a safe and smooth ride for the public.

The streets selected for maintenance in accordance with the City’sPavement Management Plan, generally fall into the “fair”category and require work at this time to prevent pavement deterioration and higher cost for asphalt concrete overlay in the future.

The total cost for street slurry seal is estimated at $590,000, including 15% for construction engineering and contingency. Upon receipt of public bids, staff will return to the City Council and City of Orange Printed on 7/20/2023Page 1 of 2

ORDINANCE NO. 11-23

AN ORDINANCE OF THE CITY COUNCIL OF THE CITY
OF ORANGE ADDING CHAPTER 5.53 TO TITLE 5 OF THE

ORANGE MUNICIPAL CODE (BUSINESS TAXES AND

REGULATIONS) ESTABLISHING REGULATIONS FO R

MOBILE VENDING VEHICLES ON PUBLIC AND

PRIVATE PROPERTY

WHEREAS, California Constitution, Article XI, Section 7, authorizes the City of Orange (“City”) to adopt and enforce local police, sanitary, and other ordinances and regulations that are not in conflict with general laws; and

WHEREAS, the Legislature of the State of California, in adopting section 22455 of the California Vehicle Code and 114315(a) of the California Health & Safety Code authorizes the City to adopt regulations to ensure the public safety relating to the type of vending, and the time, place and manner of vending; and

WHEREAS, mobile vending businesses such as those from which merchandise and foods are offered for purposes of retail sale while parked at the curb or on public streets pose traffic hazards and special dangers to the public safety and welfare of children and residents in the City ; and

WHEREAS, the City Council hereby declares and finds that:

1. Mobile vending vehicles that are parked and provide services to customers on streets where the speed limit is 35 mph or greater endanger public safety as drivers may have to perform quick maneuvers to avoid patrons on foot or cars slowing down to avail themselves of the mobile vending vehicles, and these conditions can increase congestion and endanger both motorists and the food trucks’ patrons.

2. Mobile vending businesses create litter and noise in residential neighborhoods and commercial corridors. If they are operated on during the hours of rest, they can disturb the quiet enjoyment of residential neighborhoods.

3. Mobile vending businesses, whi ch includes those selling food, dry goods and ice cream, attract attention in residential areas and cause residents to congregate around vehicles, often in the street, and frequently blocking or obstructing the public sidewalks.

4. Mobile vending businesses are often operated by one person who is not capable of controlling crowds, including children who may dart in and out of traffic in order to gain access to the mobile vending business. This is a particular problem near schools, parks, and recreational facilities.

88 2

5. The act of looking for prospective buyers while operating a food vending vehicle may make the operator less attentive to pedestrian and vehicular traffic. When done on public roadways, this poses obvious traffic and safety risks to the publ ic, which the City seeks to prevent.

6. Mobile vendors usually have box like trucks that create line of sight problems for motorists if they are parked within 100 feet of an intersection.

7. Using horns and whistles and other attention -getting sounds, m obile vending businesses can cause noise pollution in residential areas.

8. The area around mobile vending businesses is often strewn with wrappings and discarded paper products.

9. The sound of commercial activity during the hours of rest can disturb th e quiet enjoyment of residential neighborhoods.

10. In order to operate safely within the City, mobile food vendors must obtain a health permit from the Orange County Health Care Agency; and

WHEREAS, it is the purpose and intent of the City Council in enacting this Ordinance to restrict the time, place and manner for vehicle vending in order to protect the public safety in accordance with California Vehicle Code section 22455, and to provide persons engaged in mobile vending businesses with clear and concise regulations to prevent and avoid such public safety hazards and to protect the physical environment, including aesthetics, and the quiet enjoyment of residential neighborhoods and commercial corridors.

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

SECTION I:

The Ordinance is not a “project” subject to the provisions of the California Environmental Quality Act (“CEQA”) per State CEQA Guidelines S ection 15378 because it involves an organizational and administrative activity of the City of Orange that will not result in direct or indirect physical changes in the environment.

SECTION II:

The recitals and findings contained herein are true and correct and incorporated herein.

SECTION III:

Chapter 5.53 (Business Taxes and Regulations – Mobile Vending Vehicle Program) is hereby added to the Orange Municipal Code to read as follows:

General Assembly Voting Guidelines

1. One City One Vote. Each member city has a right to cast one vote on matters pertaining to Cal Cities policy.

2. Designating a City Voting Representative. Prior to the Cal Cities Annual Conference and Expo, each city council may designate a voting delegate and up to two alternates; these individuals are identified on the voting delegate form provided to the Cal Cities Credentials Committee.

3. Registering with the Credentials Committee. The voting delegate, or alternates, may pick up the city's voting card at the voting delegate desk in the conference registration area. Voting delegates and alternates must sign in at the voting delegate desk. Here they will receive a special sticker on their name badge and thus be admitted to the voting area at the General Assembly.

4. Signing Initiated Resolution Petitions. Only those individuals who are voting delegates (or alternates), and who have picked up their city’s voting card by providing a signature to the credentials committee at the voting delegate desk, may sign petitions to initiate a resolution.

5. Voting. To cast the city's vote, a city official must have in their possession the city's voting card and voting tool; and be registered with the credentials committee. The voting card may be transferred freely between the voting delegate and alternates but may not be transferred to another city official who is neither a voting delegate nor alternate.

6. Voting Area at General Assembly. At the General Assembly, individuals with a voting card will sit in a designated area. Admission to the voting area will be limited to the individual in possession of the voting card and with a special sticker on their name badge identifying them as a voting delegate.

7. Resolving Disputes. In case of dispute, the credentials committee will determine the validity of signatures on petitioned resolutions and the right of a city official to vote at the General Assembly.

118
Sixty days before the
Annual Conference and
Expo, Cal Cities members
may submit policy
proposals on issues of
importance to cities. The
resolution must have the concurrence
of at least five additional member cities
or individual members.

How it works: Cal Cities
Resolutions and the General Assembly
General Assembly
General Resolutions
Policy Committees
Developing League of California Cities policy is a dynamic process that engages a wide range of members to ensure that we are representing California cities with one voice. These policies directly guide Cal Cities advocacy to promote local decision-making, and lobby against statewide policy that erodes local control.

The resolutions process and General Assembly is one way that city officials can directly participate in the development of Cal Cities policy. If a resolution is approved at the General Assembly, it becomes official Cal Cities policy. Here’s how Resolutions and the General Assembly works.

The petitioned resolution
is an alternate method
to introduce policy
proposals during the
annual conference. The
petition must be signed by
voting delegates from 10% of member
cities, and submitted to the Cal Cities
President at least 24 hours before the
beginning of the General Assembly.

Petitioned Resolutions
The Cal Cities President
assigns general resolutions
to policy committees where
members review, debate,
and recommend positions for
each policy proposal. Recommendations are
forwarded to the Resolutions Committee.

Who’s who
The Resolutions
Committee includes
representatives from
each Cal Cities diversity
caucus, regional
division, municipal
department, policy
committee, as well as
individuals appointed by
the Cal Cities president.

Voting delegates
are appointed by each
member city; every city
has one voting delegate.

The General Assembly
is a meeting of the
collective body of
all voting delegates —
one from every
member city.

Seven Policy
Committees meet
throughout the year to
review and recommend

1. SUBJECT
Examination of Census Tract 219.14 (El Modena area) for Community Development Block Grant funding eligibility during Fiscal Years 2000 - 2023.

2. SUMMARY
An examination of the eligibility of the El Modena area in Census Tract 219.14 for Community Development Block Grant funding determined that Census Tract 219.14 has not met the eligibility requirements from the Department of Housing and Urban Development for funding as of 2000, with the exception of 2010, due to a one-time waiver.

3. RECOMMENDED ACTION
Receive and file.

4. FISCAL IMPACT
None.

5. STRATEGIC PLAN GOALS
Goal 4: Provide outstanding public service
b: Provide facilities and services to meet customer expectations.

6. DISCUSSION AND BACKGROUND
On May 9, 2023, during the Public Hearing for the approval of the 2023-2024 Annual Action Plan, staff received direction from the City Council to return with information on the changes in eligibility of Census Tract 219.14 for Community Development Block Grant (CDBG) funding. The request was made in response to public concerns over the lack of investment of CDBG funding in the El Modena area that corresponds to Census Tract 219.14.

Staff retained the services of a CDBG mapping consultant at Michael Baker International (MBI) to conduct an independent examination of the area to determine the following:

1. Eligibility of the El Modena area using the data sources available directly from the Federal Department of Housing and Urban Development (HUD) and the U.S. Census Bureau;

2. Identify changes to socio-economic conditions of the area between 2000-2023 to determine when CDBG funding eligibility had changed; and

Item #: 6.1. 7/25/2023 File #: 23-0460

3. Identify other factors, economic or otherwise, that impact the eligibility of an area.

The findings of this effort were provided to HUD to confirm accuracy and validity.

Background
HUD provides entitlement cities, such as the City of Orange that receive annual CDBG funding, with American Community Survey (ACS) data to determine eligibility of CDBG funding as it becomes available. ACS data represents smaller Census Bureau data collection samples in limited geographic areas during the years between the decennial census, with those samplings extrapolated to the entire census tract. At the time of the creation of the 2020-2024 Consolidated Plan (equivalent to Fiscal Years 2021-2025) and corresponding Annual Action Plans, including the 2023-2024 Action Plan, the most recent data available was the ACS 2015 data.

The Consolidated Plan (Con Plan) is a five-year strategic plan required by HUD that outlines the priorities for the five Annual Action Plans. Annual Action Plans are specific to each year in the Consolidated Plan cycle and outline the City’splan and intent for the use of funds in each program year.

Map Examination Findings
The examination of Census Tract 219.14 by MBI determined that the area has not qualified under HUD’seligibility guidelines from 2000 to the present. In order for an area to qualify, 50% or more of the households in an area must have incomes below 60% of the Area Median Income (AMI). The exception of eligibility of Census Tract 219.14 is in 2010 as a result of a one-time waiver from HUD that permitted selected counties to use uncapped income limits to determine eligibility.

For specific details on how the determination of the eligibility of Census Tract 219.14 was made, refer to MBI’s report (Attachment 1).

Internal Review
At the Public Hearing on May 9, 2023, the information that staff had at the time cited ACS 2015 data as the source data used to create the eligibility map (Attachment 2) in the 2020-2024 Con Plan. The map in the Con Plan depicted Census Tract 219.14 as a CDBG eligible area. The maps used in the application process for the subsequent Action Plans corresponding to the Con Plan, however, depicted a different eligibility map with Census Tract 219.14 no longer qualifying using the same source data (Attachment 3).

As part of the internal review of the records for Census Tract 219.14, the Con Plan map and the maps in the subsequent Action Plans were recreated by the City’sGIS Division to verify the source data cited in each of the maps for accuracy. GIS staff were able to determine that the source data had been incorrectly cited for the map approved with the Con Plan (Attachment 2) and confirmed that the source data used to create the map was ACS 2010 data. The subsequent maps used in the Annual Action Plans (Attachment 3), where Census Tract 219.14 is not an eligible area, however, were confirmed to have been generated with ACS 2015 data.

Conclusion
Census Tract 219.14 has not met the eligibility criteria for CDBG funding from 2000 to the present, with the exception of 2010 due to a one-time waiver from HUD in response to the subprime mortgage City of Orange Printed on 7/20/2023Page 2 of 3

In order to correct the eligibility map in the 2020-2024 Con Plan, staff will return to Council to substantially amend the Con Plan and adopt a corrected map to be generated by the City’smapping consultant to ensure the correct data set is used and interpreted. Additionally, staff will update the Citizen Participation Plan that outlines the policies adopted by the City to ensure citizen participation in the development of the Con Plan and the Annual Action Plans and the Policies and Procedures, in order to ensure that the process for updating the map in the Con Plan and Annual Action Plans are streamlined moving forward.

Overview
On May 10, 2023, the City of Orange reached out to Michael Baker International to resolve a question about the Low-to-Moderate Income (LMI) Map presented in the City’s 2020- 2024 Consolidated Plan (ConPlan), and second map that was used in early 2021 for the Notice of Funding Availability (NOFA) for Community Development Block Grant Funds.

Working with City staff and associated departments, the team at Michael Baker International were able to identify the discrepancies between the two maps. This report will:
 Determine how the Department of Housing and Urban Development (HUD) qualifies LMI Census Tracts
 Show progression of changes in Census Tract 219.14 from 2000, 2010, 2015, and 2020 Census Years via US Census and ACS data
 Report on how external influences in the housing market and factors such as home value and tenure are indicators of areas that may be considered LMI-qualifying, especially for Census Tract 219.14 (see Fig 1).

The finding of this report is that Census Tract 219.14 has not qualified for LMI status per HUD’s definition since 2000. The outlier year of 2010 where the area did qualify did so because HUD had uncapped the Income Limits for Orange County to address the subprime mortgage crisis. The sources that were used to research and make this determination are:
 US Census/ACS (https://data.census.gov/)
 State of California Income Limits (https://www.hcd.ca.gov/grants-and- funding/income-limits)

The initial map in question was generated from Census Data from 2010. The second map that contradicted the 2010 map was generated from Census Data from 2015. For consistency, this report will focus on three years, 2010, 2015, and 2020. We used 2020 Census Data to show the current status of Census Tract 219.14. In the map below, the yellow area is the part of Census Tract 219.14 that is within the city limits of the City of Orange.

Determination of an LMI area and Map Creation
Creation of an LMI map involves an overview of the Low to Moderate Income Population at the city level, and at the block group level. The data utilized in these maps are sourced from HUD, incorporating special tabulations and the American Community Survey data.

The areas identified as LMI are based on the thresholds established by HUD. The Community Development Block Grant (CDBG) program requires that each CDBG funded activity must either principally benefit low- and moderate-income (LMI) persons, aid in the prevention or elimination of slums or blight or meet a community development need having a particular urgency. Most activities funded by the Community Development Block Grant (CDBG) program are designed to benefit low- and moderate-income (LMI) persons.

This benefit may take the form of housing, jobs, and services. Additionally, activities may qualify for CDBG assistance if the activity will benefit all the residents of a primarily 128

residential area where at least 50 percent of households are low- and moderate-income.

LMI households are those with incomes below 60% of the Area Median Income (AMI)1.

Research
Maps
In researching the history of the map that was included in the 2020-2024 City of Orange Consolidated Plan (Fig. 2), Michael Baker relied on the City’s GIS department who created the map using the data set from 2010 Census and 2014 Low- and Moderate- Income Summary Data per the ACS. It is important to note that 2020 Census information was not fully released until early 2021, and unavailable at the time the Consolidated Plan was created in 2020. However, 2015 ACS estimates were available, which was the source of the second map that accompanied the NOFA (Fig. 3). Michael Baker staff has created a 2020 Map using the 2020 Decennial 2020 Census Data to identify whether a LMI qualified for the El Modena Neighborhood (CT 219.14), the Census Tract did not qualify (Fig. 4).

Data trends
Income
Household Income is the most impactful data to determine if a Census Tract area is eligible for CDBG funding. In examining trends from 2000, 2010, 2015 and 2020, we can determine what changes could have occurred that may make a Census Tract ineligible.

The data pulled included information provided by the US Census Website (https://data.census.gov/), and information for the City of Orange as well as for Census Tract (219.14). As shown in the figure below, to pull relevant income four (4) filters were used as follows:
 Income (Households, Families, Individuals)
 Poverty
 Year (2000, 2010, 2015, 2020)
 Location (City of Orange and Census Tract 219.14)

FY 2000 Income Limits were not located for Orange County. Micheal Baker staff was able to locate FY 1999 Income Limits and FY 2005 Income Limits. To more accurately calculate FY 2000 data, Michael Baker Staff used FY 1999 Income Limits and increased it by the Cost of Living Adjustment (COLA) for FY 2000 (3.5%2) (see Fig. 6).

For the 2000 Census year, the City of Orange had a total of 41,030 Households. The Median Income (dollars) was $58,994. The Income Limits to qualify as a LMI area for 2000 (60% or below Income Level) was $54,444 or less per household Income (see Fig. 6). In 2010 46% of households in the City qualified as LMI. 22 https://www.ssa.gov/oact/cola/colaseries.html

2010
2010 was an outlier year for HUD Income Limits qualification. The subprime mortgage crisis of 2007-10 stemmed from an earlier expansion of mortgage credit, including to borrowers who previously would have had difficulty getting mortgages, which both contributed to and was facilitated by rapidly rising home prices 3. HUD released a memo in June of 2010 permitting selected Counties to use “uncapped” income limits to determine LMI (see attached HUD memo). The percentage went from 60% of AMI to 80%. For the 2010 Census year, the City of Orange had a total of 41,986 Households.

The Median Income (dollars) was $72,784. The Income Limits to qualify as an LMI area for 2010 (80% or below Income Level) was $63,800 or less per household Income (see Fig. 7). In 2010 67% of households in the City qualified as LMI.

In examining trends in total household income for Census Tract 219.14, we can see in Table 5 that the total household incomes that increased the most significantly were those households that were $150,000+. This increase in household income indicates that the neighborhood has grown in affluence since 2000, where $150,000K+ household incomes made up 14% of the Census Tract, but by 2020 accounted for 45% of households. The outlier of a decrease in lower household income in 2010 is most likely due to the subprime lending crisis. Conversely, looking at percent changes in 2015, there are less households that reported low-moderate incomes. The shift from lower income households located in Census Tract 219.14 is illustrated in Chart 1 (below).

Home Value and Tenure
The value of a home helps identifies trends in the prosperity of a neighborhood. Areas with higher-valued homes are generally areas with higher household incomes.

Additionally, occupancy is also a determinant of qualifying LMI as thresholds for qualifications are based on number of people living in the home. Finally, tenure (owner- occupied vs. renter-occupied) could indicate if a Census Tract area could be identified as LMI-qualifying.

Home Value
For this report, Michael Baker staff focused on owner-occupied units within Census Tract 219.14. The housing values within this Census Tract have historically tracked higher than the City of Orange’s overall home values (see Chart 2). Additionally, homes with values of $500K and more have made up the dominant percentage of housing in Census Tract 219.14 (see Table 6).

Tenure
Renter-occupied households historically have lower household incomes than owner- occupied households and may be more affected by changes in household income and rental prices 4. Therefore, if a Census Tract has a higher percentage of renters vs. homeowners, it could be an indication of an LMI qualified area. Census Tract 219.14 has always had higher owner-occupied homes vs. renter-occupied homes (see Chart 3) . This neighborhood has a higher rate of single-family units that multi-family units; with single- family units representing 73% of all housing units in 2000, 52% of all housing units in 2010, 64% of all housing units in 2015, and 70% of all housing units in 20205.

Conclusion
In conducting historical research of Census Tract 219.14, it has been determined that this tract has not qualified as a LMI Census Tract from FY 2000 to the present6.

The discrepancies noted in the 2020-2024 Consolidated Plan arose from an exception that was made for the Decennial Census for 2010 where HUD had uncapped the income limits for certain counties to allow for households whose incomes were 80% or lower of the AMI to qualify was low- and moderate-income. Traditionally, HUD’s cap to determine LMI is 60% or lower than AMI 7. Note – while HCD (The State Housing and Community Development Department California) releases Income Limits yearly, all State statutory limits are based on federal limits set and periodically revised by the U.S. Department of Housing and Urban Development (HUD) for the Section 8 Housing Choice Voucher Program. HUD’s limits are based on surveys of local area median income (AMI).

Chart 4 Census Tract 219.14 Qualification for LMI
The subprime mortgage crisis that affected the United States from 2008-2010 prompted HUD to increase the percentage of household income cap to 80% instead of 60% AMI to assist citizens during the financial downturn. This uncapped percentage contributed to the isolated event of the inclusion of Census Tract 219.14 in the LMI map generated from 2010 Census Data and used for the Consolidated Plan.

While there are multiple factors that can affect if a Census Tract qualified for CDBG funding, HUD is clear that the Community Development Block Grant (CDBG) program requires that each CDBG funded activity must either principally benefit low- and moderate-income (LMI) persons, aid in the prevention or elimination of slums or blight or meet a community development need having a particular urgency. Most activities funded 6 US Census and ACS data 2000, 2010, 2015, and 2020

by the Community Development Block Grant (CDBG) program are designed to benefit low- and moderate-income (LMI) persons. Additionally, activities may qualify for CDBG assistance if the activity will benefit all the residents of a primarily residential area where at least 51 percent of the residents are low- and moderate-income persons, i.e., area- benefit (LMA).

TO: Honorable Mayor and Members of the City Council
THRU: Tom Kisela, City Manager
FROM: Christopher Cash, Public Works Director

1. SUBJECT
Implementation of permit parking on both sides of Trenton Avenue between Grand and Shaffer Streets and both sides of Grand Street south of Trenton Avenue. Resolution No. 11484.

2. SUMMARY
A request for permit parking was evaluated in accordance with the City’s Neighborhood Permit Parking Program. The proposal received adequate support from the affected property owners and was approved by the City Traffic Commission. The affected streets are located within Permit Parking Opportunity Area (PPOA) #4.

3. RECOMMENDED ACTION

1. Approve permit parking on both sides of Trenton Avenue from the westerly property lines of 331 E. Trenton Avenue/1482 N. Grand Street to Shaffer Street and both sides of Grand Street from Trenton Avenue to the southerly terminus.

2. Adopt Resolution No. 11484. A Resolution of the City Council of the City of Orange adopting a revised master resolution of designated permit parking areas within the City of Orange.

4. FISCAL IMPACT
The total expenditure for the project is $2,000 and will be funded in Minor Traffic Control Devices (16302) through Traffic Improvement Measure M2 (263).

5. STRATEGIC PLAN GOALS
Goal 1: Provide for a safe community.
b. Provide and maintain infrastructure necessary to ensure the safety of the public.

6. DISCUSSION AND BACKGROUND
The City’s Neighborhood Permit Parking Program (NPPP) provides a mechanism for protecting residential streets from external parking overflow when certain conditions are satisfied. To streamline the permit parking application process in certain highly parked areas, the City Council established five Permit Parking Opportunity Areas (PPOA’s). PPOA’sare subject to modified implementation criteria, similar to those of Area A (Downtown/University Permit Parking Area.) Specifically, the application fee and parking occupancy study typically required are waived, and the required neighborhood support level is reduced from 75% to 55%.

Item #: 6.2. 7/25/2023 File #: 23-0466
Upon receipt of a written request for permit parking on the aforementioned street, staff mailed petitions to affected property owners in January 2023. The petitioning process concluded in March, with the results indicating 61% support for the proposal. Because this level of neighborhood support exceeds the 55% requirement, staff recommends moving forward with permit parking. The matter was presented to the City Traffic Commission at their June 14, 2023, regular meeting. Four residents spoke in favor of the item (none opposed), and the commission approved the item 6-0.

Should the City Council grant final approval, it is important to keep in mind the following:
· Property owners of any other street(s) within this PPOA may request permit parking in the future by following the procedures described above.
· Permit parking does not supersede other parking restrictions such as street sweeping, red curb markings, etc.
· While participation in the program is voluntary (residents may choose to park on private property rather than obtain permits,) any vehicle parked on the street without a permit will be subject to citation.

NEIGHBORHOOD PARKING PERMIT PROGRAM

IMPLEMENTATION POLICY

APPROVED BY CITY COUNCIL
August 9, 2022
1 Note: The Neighborhood Parking Permit Policy below does not apply to area “A”

• The program to mitigate the int rusion of college -oriented, commercial, institutional, multi - family residential (more than two units) or other long -term vehicular parking on streets in residential areas to assure that local residents and their guests have convenient parking on streets in proximity to their homes shall be referred to as the Neighborhood Parking Permit Program.

• Permit Parking shall only be permitted in single-family residential areas, where the problem is ongoing, and it is determined that the permit parking is the only solution. Only single- family residences and duplexes (two units on one lot) are qualified for this program.

• The Traffic Engineering Division shall determine the boundaries of the permit area for each request.

• Since Permit Parking Areas benefit certain residents, and not the general public, a “Permit Parking Program Application Fee” $1,000 shall be paid by the proponent(s) of each new or additional permit area, for consideration of the implementation of permit parking. (This could also be implemented with a $500 deposit and an additional $500 when the petition is issued.) (Exception: If within one year of implementing a new permit parking area there is spillover onto adjacent streets(s), a property owner o n the affected street(s) may request expansion of that permit parking area. Such requests shall be exempt from the application fee but would need to meet the parking study and petition requirements.)

• The neighborhood parking permit areas that are adjacent to a K-12 school shall not be enforced during the school A.M. drop-off (from 7:30 am to 8:30 am) and P.M. pick-up time (from 1:30 pm to 3:00 pm) on days school is in session.

• Implement restricted hours for permit parking enforcement on an as-needed basis to address Recreational Intrusions and Business Intrusions. The intent of this policy change is to maximize the benefits of permit parking to t he applicant neighborhood while minimizing impacts to adjacent property use to balance parking need with quality of lifestyle.

o Institutional Intrusions (Universities, hospitals) shall remain 24/7/365.

o Recreational Intrusions (Parks, Schools and Sports Complexes) shall be enforced from 8:00 a.m. to 8:00 p.m. or as otherwise approved.

o Business Intrusions (Commercial Businesses) shall be enforced Monday through Friday 7:00 a.m. to 5:00 p.m. or as otherwise approved.

NEIGHBORHOOD PARKING PERMIT PROGRAM

IMPLEMENTATION POLICY

APPROVED BY CITY COUNCIL
August 9, 2022
2 • Implementation of Permit Parking Program areas will only be considered when the following are satisfied:

1. The area must abut an institutional, residential apartment, commercial or industrial use which is generating the parking intrusion.

2. A minimum of 75% of the area residents must sign the petition in favor.

3. Any identified problem must be on-going, not occasional or temporary.

4. To demonstrate a need, 75% of the available on-street space in a proposed permit area must be occupied during the perceived problem times. Staff, through consultation with the applicant, shall determine appropriate dates and times for conducting the parking occupancy study. Up to three observations may be performed, at the discretion of the Traffic Engineering Division

5. Staff must see evidence that required off street parking is being utilized. • Program shall not be approved to attempt to solve social problems that should be addressed through other means, such as Police or Code Enforcement.

• Program shall not be approved if the identified parking problems can be mitigated by less restrictive parking control measures. Council directs staff to identify the least restrictive permit hours to achieve the desired results.

• If recommended for approval by the City Traffic Commission, the Commission will direct the Traffic Engineering Division to prepare a resolution for adoption by the City Council.

• Number of permits per household (single family residence) shall be limited to 5 permits including guest permits. The total numb er of permits shall not exceed 5 per household. (Updated 6/12/18 per City Council)

• Number of permits for each unit of a duplex shall be limited to 2 permits (for registered vehicles only), plus 2 guest permits. The total of permits shall not exceed 4 permits per unit.

• Permits cost $30 per household and are valid for 3 years. Permits are non-transferable and are invalid if the registered permittee moves from the household. (Updated 6/12/18 per City Council)

• Single day event guest permit (up to maximum of 20) are available 4 times per year at no cost to a resident.

3 • To minimize sign pollution, permit parking area shall be identified by area posting wherever possible.

• The City Council may, at its discretion, create city -defined permit parking “opportunity” areas in locations with high parking demand potential . Residents within the boundaries of such areas can opt into permit parking on a block -by-block basis, similar to Area “A”.

Requests in these areas shall be processed in a streamlined manner similar to Area “A ” requests, with no application fee, no parking study, and minimum 55% support of the affected residents.

The City Manager/or his designee shall have the authority to suspend enforcement of neighborhood parking permit enforcement on a case-by-case basis for special requests.

City Traffic Commission
Item #: 4.2. 6/14/2023 File #: 23-0384
TO: Chair and Members of the City Traffic Commission
THRU: Larry Tay, City Traffic Engineer
FROM: Dave Allenbach, Transportation Analyst

1. SUBJECT
Request for Permit Parking on both sides of Grand Street south of Trenton Avenue and both sides of Trenton Avenue from Grand Street to Shaffer Street.

2. SUMMARY
This is a request to implement permit parking on the aforementioned streets which are located in Permit Parking Opportunity Area #4

3. RECOMMENDED ACTION

1. Approve the implementation of permit parking on both sides of Grand Street south of Trenton Avenue.

2. Approve the implementation of permit parking on both sides of Trenton Avenue between Grand and Shaffer Streets.

3. Forward to the City Council for final action

4. FISCAL IMPACT
The total expenditure for the project is $2,000 and will be funded in Minor Traffic Control Devices (16302) through Traffic Improvement Measure M2 (263).

5. STRATEGIC PLAN GOALS
Goal 1: Provide for a safe community.
b. Provide and maintain infrastructure necessary to ensure the safety of the public.

6. DISCUSSION AND BACKGROUND
The City’s Neighborhood Permit Parking Program (NPPP) provides a mechanism for protecting residential streets from external parking overflow when certain criteria are satisfied. In order to streamline the permit parking application process in certain highly parked areas, the City Council established five Permit Parking Opportunity Areas (PPOA’s). PPOA’sare subject to different criteria and procedures. Specifically, the application fee and parking occupancy study typically required are waived, and the required neighborhood support level is reduced from 75% to 55%.

After receiving a written request for permit parking for the aforementioned streets from an eligible resident, staff mailed petition packages to the property owners on the affected streets in January 2023. The polling process concluded in March, the results of which indicate that 61% of the property City of Orange Printed on 6/8/2023Page 1 of 2

2023. The polling process concluded in March, the results of which indicate that 61% of the property owners are in favor of permit parking, 6% are opposed, and 33% did not respond. Because the level of support exceeds the 55% stipulated in the NPPP, staff recommends permit parking.

Moreover, it should be noted that property owners of any other street(s) within this PPOA may request permit parking in the future by following the procedures described above. Furthermore, permit parking does not supersede other parking restrictions such as street sweeping. Participation is voluntary however, once implemented any vehicle parked on the street without a permit is subject to citation.

NEIGHBORHOOD PARKING PERMIT PROGRAM

IMPLEMENTATION POLICY

APPROVED BY CITY COUNCIL
August 9, 2022
1 Note: The Neighborhood Parking Permit Policy below does not apply to area “A”

• The program to mitigate the int rusion of college -oriented, commercial, institutional, multi - family residential (more than two units) or other long -term vehicular parking on streets in residential areas to assure that local residents and their guests have convenient parking on streets in proximity to their homes shall be referred to as the Neighborhood Parking Permit Program.

• Permit Parking shall only be permitted in single-family residential areas, where the problem is ongoing, and it is determined that the permit parking is the only solution. Only single- family residences and duplexes (two units on one lot) are qualified for this program.

• The Traffic Engineering Division shall determine the boundaries of the permit area for each request.

• Since Permit Parking Areas benefit certain residents, and not the general public, a “Permit Parking Program Application Fee” $1,000 shall be paid by the proponent(s) of each new or additional permit area, for consideration of the implementation of permit parking. (This could also be implemented with a $500 deposit and an additional $500 when the petition is issued.) (Exception: If within one year of implementing a new permit parking area there is spillover onto adjacent streets(s), a property owner o n the affected street(s) may request expansion of that permit parking area. Such requests shall be exempt from the application fee but would need to meet the parking study and petition requirements.)

• The neighborhood parking permit areas that are adjacent to a K-12 school shall not be enforced during the school A.M. drop-off (from 7:30 am to 8:30 am) and P.M. pick-up time (from 1:30 pm to 3:00 pm) on days school is in session.

• Implement restricted hours for permit parking enforcement on an as-needed basis to address Recreational Intrusions and Business Intrusions. The intent of this policy change is to maximize the benefits of permit parking to t he applicant neighborhood while minimizing impacts to adjacent property use to balance parking need with quality of lifestyle.

o Institutional Intrusions (Universities, hospitals) shall remain 24/7/365.

o Recreational Intrusions (Parks, Schools and Sports Complexes) shall be enforced from 8:00 a.m. to 8:00 p.m. or as otherwise approved.

o Business Intrusions (Commercial Businesses) shall be enforced Monday through Friday 7:00 a.m. to 5:00 p.m. or as otherwise approved.

2 • Implementation of Permit Parking Program areas will only be considered when the following are satisfied:

1. The area must abut an institutional, residential apartment, commercial or industrial use which is generating the parking intrusion.

2. A minimum of 75% of the area residents must sign the petition in favor.

3. Any identified problem must be on-going, not occasional or temporary.

4. To demonstrate a need, 75% of the available on-street space in a proposed permit area must be occupied during the perceived problem times. Staff, through consultation with the applicant, shall determine appropriate dates and times for conducting the parking occupancy study. Up to three observations may be performed, at the discretion of the Traffic Engineering Division

5. Staff must see evidence that required off street parking is being utilized. • Program shall not be approved to attempt to solve social problems that should be addressed through other means, such as Police or Code Enforcement.

• Program shall not be approved if the identified parking problems can be mitigated by less restrictive parking control measures. Council directs staff to identify the least restrictive permit hours to achieve the desired results.

• If recommended for approval by the City Traffic Commission, the Commission will direct the Traffic Engineering Division to prepare a resolution for adoption by the City Council.

• Number of permits per household (single family residence) shall be limited to 5 permits including guest permits. The total numb er of permits shall not exceed 5 per household. (Updated 6/12/18 per City Council)

3 • To minimize sign pollution, permit parking area shall be identified by area posting wherever possible.

• The City Council may, at its discretion, create city -defined permit parking “opportunity” areas in locations with high parking demand potential . Residents within the boundaries of such areas can opt into permit parking on a block -by-block basis, similar to Area “A”.

Requests in these areas shall be processed in a streamlined manner similar to Area “A ” requests, with no application fee, no parking study, and minimum 55% support of the affected residents.
