of Apprenticeship, upon application of an apprenticeship program, may order a minimum ratio of not less than one apprentice for each five journeymen in a craft or trade classification. (i) A contractor covered by this section who has agreed to be covered by an apprenticeship program's standards upon the issuance of the approval certificate, or who has been previously approved for an apprenticeship program in the craft or trade, shall employ the number of apprentices or the ratio of apprentices to journeymen stipulated in the applicable apprenticeship standards, but in no event less than the 1- to-5 ratio required by subdivision (g).
(j) Upon proper showing by a contractor that he or she employs apprentices in a particular craft or trade in the state on all of his or her contracts on an annual average of not less than one hour of apprentice work for every five hours of labor performed by journeymen, the A dministrator of Apprenticeship may grant a certificate exempting the contractor from the 1-to-5 hourly ratio, as set forth in this section for that craft or trade. (k) An apprenticeship program has the discretion to grant to a participating contractor or contractor association a certificate, which shall be subject to the approval of the Administrator of Apprenticeship, exempting the contractor from the 1-to-5 ratio set forth in this section when it finds that any one of the following conditions is met:
(1) Unemployment for the previous three-month period in the area exceeds an average of 15 percent. (2) The number of apprentices in training in the area exceeds a ratio of 1 to 5. (3) There is a showing that the apprenticeable craft or trade is replacing at least one-thirtieth of its journeymen annually through apprenticeship training, either on a statewide basis or on a local basis. (4) Assignment of an apprentice to any work performed under a public works contract would create a condition that would jeopardize his or her life or the life, safety, or property of fellow employees or the public at large, or the specific task to which the apprentice is to be assigned is of a nature that training cannot be provided by a journeyman.
(l) If an exemptio n is granted pursuant to subdivision (k) to an organization that represents contractors in a specific trade from the 1-to-5 ratio on a local or statewide basis, the member contractors shall not be required to submit individual applications for approval to local joint apprenticeship committees, if they are already covered by the local apprenticeship standards.
(m)(1) A contractor to whom a contract is awarded, who, in performing any of the work under the contract, employs journeymen or apprentices in any apprenticeable craft or trade shall contribute to the California Apprenticeship Council the same amount that the director determines is the prevailing amount of apprenticeship training contributions in the area of the public works site. A contractor may take as a credit for payments to the council any amounts paid by the contractor to an approved apprenticeship program that can supply apprentices to the site of the public works project. The contractor may add the amount of the contributions in computing his or her bid for the contract. (2)(A) At the conclusion of the 2002- 03 fiscal year and each fiscal year thereafter, the California Apprenticeship Council shall distribute training contributions received by the council under this subdivision, less the expenses of the Department of Industrial Relations for administering this subdivision, by making grants to approved apprenticeship programs for the purpose of training apprentices. The grant funds shall be distributed as follows:

Attachment No. 1

Page 12 of 13 ends

(i) If there is an approved mult iemployer apprenticeship program serving the same craft or trade and geographic area for which the training contributions were made to the council, a grant to that program shall be made.
(ii) If there are two or more approved multiemployer apprenticeship programs serving the same craft or trade and county for which the training contributions were made to the council, the grant shall be divided among those programs based on the number of apprentices from that county registered in each program. (iii) All training contributions not distributed under clauses (i) and (ii) shall be used to defray the future expenses of the Department of Industrial Relations for the administration and enforcement of apprenticeship and preapprenticeship standards and requirements under this code. (B) An apprenticeship program shall only be eligible to receive grant funds pursuant to this subdivision if the apprenticeship program agrees, prior to the receipt of any grant funds, to keep adequate records that document the expenditure of grant funds and to make all records available to the Department of Industrial Relations so that the Department of Industrial Relations is able to verify that grant funds were used s olely for training apprentices. For purposes of this subparagraph, adequa te records include, but are not limited to, invoices, receipts, and canceled checks that account for the expenditure of grant funds. This subparagraph shall not be deemed to require an apprenticeship program to provide the Department of Industrial Relations with more documentation than is necessary to verify the appropriate expenditure of grant funds made pursuant to this subdivision.
(C) The Department of Industrial Relations shall verify that grants made pursuant to this subdivision are used solely to fund training apprentices. If an apprenticeship program is unable to demonstrate how grant funds are expended or if an apprenticeship program is found to be using grant funds for purposes other than training apprentices, then the apprenticeship program shall not be eligible to receive any future grant pursuant to this subdivision and the Department of Industrial Relations may initiate the process to rescind the registration of the apprenticeship program.
(3) All training contributions received pursuant to this subdivision shall be deposited in the Apprenticeship Training Contribution Fund, which is hereby created in the State Treasury. Upon appropriation by the Legislature, all moneys in the Apprenticeship Training Contribution Fund shall be used for the pur pose of carrying out this subdivision and to pay the expenses of the Department of Industrial Relations. (n) The body awarding the contract shall cause to be inserted in the contract stipulations to effectuate this section. The stipulations shall fix the responsibility of compliance with this section for all apprenticeable occupations with the prime contractor.
(o) This section does not apply to contracts of general contractors or to contracts of specialty contractors not bidding for work through a general or prime contractor when the contracts of general contractors or those specialty contractors involve less than thirty thousand dollars ($30,000). (p) An awarding body that implements an approved labor compliance program in accordance with subdivision (b) of Section 1771.5 may, with the approval of the director, assist in the enforcement of this section under the terms and conditions prescribed by the director.

Section 1813. Forfeiture for violations; contract stipulation; report of violations

The contractor or subcontractor shall, as a penalty to the state or political subdivision on whose behalf the contract is made or awarded, forfeit twenty- five dollars ($25) for each worker employed in the execution of 387

In awarding any contract for public work, the awarding body shall cause to be inserted in the contract a stipulation to this effect. The awarding body shall take cognizance of all violations of this article committed in the course of the execution of the c ontract, and shall report them to the Division of Labor Standards Enforcement.

Section 1815. Overtime

Notwithstanding the provisions of Sections 1810 to 1814, inclusive, of this code, and notwithstanding any stipulation inserted in any contract pursuant to the requirements of said sections, work performed by employees of contractors in excess of 8 hours per day, and 40 hours during any one week, shall be permitted upon public work upon compensation for all hours worked in excess of 8 hours per day at not less than 1 ½ times the basic rate of pay.

6. DISCUSSION AND BACKGROUND
During Fiscal Year 2021-2022 (FY22), the Police Department implemented a three-year plan to replace existing office furniture throughout the department beginning with the Investigative Services Division. The furniture project for the Investigative Services Division officially began mid-March 2023 and was completed in May 2023.

The next phase of the furniture project is comprised of the Field Services Division which includes the following:
· Traffic Bureau
· Bike Patrol, Homeless Engagement Assistance Response Team (HEART), and the Crime Reduction Unit
· Sergeant’s Office
· Report Writing Room
· Briefing Room
The Field Services Division includes 11 offices, 34 cubicles, lockers, and miscellaneous filing cabinets.

During the initial site visit, it was determined that the layout would remain the same to connect the building’s main power supply to the electrical system contained within the panels of cubicles. A cubicle configuration is ideal and cost efficient for an open office floor plan. A critical element of this project is the addition of height adjustable desks designed to shorten the amount of time spent sitting down during the workday. Other ergonomic features include accessible power access, monitor arms, and adequate storage.

The furniture project involves removal of existing furniture and cubicles, carpet replacement, lighting, paint, design, new office furniture and cubicles, delivery, and installation. Based on previous furniture projects with the City, quality of work, and consideration of the City’sannual budget, staff pursued a proposal from Interior Office Solutions, Inc. dba People Space. People Space is located in Irvine, CA and currently maintains an OMNIA Partners, Contract No. 2020000606 for furniture and furnishings through Haworth. Included in the OMNIA contract are special pricing incentives beyond the standard discount which is based on volume. Based on a preliminary quote, the most cost-effective purchase price can be obtained through OMNIA Partners Contract No. 202000606, with People Space for a total amount of $450,000. Included in this request is network cabling services from Mark IV Communications Inc. to ensure continuity of communications during and after the remodel. This component of the cost is estimated at $30,000. The Council has previously authorized Mark IV Communications Inc. as a sole source vendor, this sole source specification is a continuation of that policy.

Due to existing building conditions, extra work is needed to refresh interior paint and replace existing carpet and lighting that has far exceeded its useful life. With the assistance of Public Works Facilities, staff will outsource lighting, paint, and carpeting services. The approval for this purchase will be included in a separate staff report at a future date.

Funding in the amount of $200,000 is currently budgeted in General Fund (100) and available for the purchase of office furniture. However, funds available in General Fund (100) are insufficient and will City of Orange Printed on 9/5/2023Page 2 of 3

5. STRATEGIC PLAN GOALS
Goal 1: Provide for a safe community

6. DISCUSSION AND BACKGROUND
The Orange City Fire Department is requesting the purchase of two Type 1 ambulances as an add to fleet to improve emergency medical response services in our community. The ambulances are critical in providing emergency medical services to our residents, businesses, and visitors. As the population grows, there is an increasing demand for efficient and effective emergency medical response. Our current ambulance fleet is reaching the end of its operational life, resulting in higher maintenance costs and potential service disruptions.

To address these challenges, staff recommends the purchase of two Type 1 ambulances through the Houston-Galveston Area Council (HGAC) Cooperative Purchasing Contract No. AM10-20. This cooperative purchasing arrangement offers numerous benefits, including streamlined procurement processes, competitive pricing, and compliance with local regulations.

The Type 1 ambulances are equipped with advanced medical equipment, ample patient care space, and robust off-road capabilities, making them ideal for serving our diverse community's needs. These two ambulances will be ready for delivery within a few months.

To fund the purchase of these ambulances, $466,000 was budgeted in the current Fiscal Year 2023-

1. SUBJECT
Declare the property located on the south side of 2045 East Palmyra Avenue as surplus to the City’s needs, authorize the disposal of the property, and finding of CEQA exemption. Resolution No. 11491.

2. SUMMARY
Resolution No. 11491 will declare the property located on the south side of 2045 East Palmyra Avenue, also known as Assessor’sParcel No. 390-502-09, as surplus to the City’sneeds and will authorize the disposal of the property.

3. RECOMMENDED ACTION
Adopt Resolution No. 11491. A Resolution of the City Council of the City of Orange declaring that certain City-owned real property located on the south side of 2045 East Palmyra Avenue in the City of Orange is exempt surplus land pursuant to Government Code Section 54221 and finding that the foregoing action is exempt from review under the California Environmental Quality Act.

4. FISCAL IMPACT
None.

5. STRATEGIC PLAN GOALS
Goal 2: Be a fiscally healthy community
d: Effectively manage and develop City assets.

6. DISCUSSION AND BACKGROUND
The subject property was acquired by the City from the County of Orange as a tax defaulted property in 1970. The property was conveyed to the City by deed recorded on July 24, 1970, in Book 9355,

Page 756 ends

The property is 871 square feet (per assessor’srecords) and triangular shaped. The three sides of the property are East Palmyra Avenue cul-de-sac on the west, a residential tri-plex on the north (2045 East Palmyra Avenue), and vacant land on the south.

The subject parcel is a vacant lot and has been a continual problem with nuisance activity along Santiago Creek and the 55 freeway overpass.

The property is considered “surplusland”because it is owned in fee simple by the City of Orange and is not needed for current or potential future City use. Under the Surplus Land Act, as detailed in City of Orange Printed on 9/7/2023Page 1 of 2
powered by Legistar™
413
Item #: 3.18. 9/12/2023 File #: 23-0572
is not needed for current or potential future City use. Under the Surplus Land Act, as detailed in Government Code sections 54220 and subsequent sections (the “Act”),sets forth the parameters for the disposal of “surplus land” by local agencies. In accordance with the Act, all government-owned property proposed to be declared as surplus must adhere to the definitions and guidelines set therein. As outlined under Government Code section 54221, “surplusland”refers to land that a city or local agency owns outright and is not necessary for its operational needs.

Further, pursuant to Government Code section 54221(f)(1)(B), certain properties can be classified as “exempt surplus land.” This property is exempt because it meets one or more of the following conditions: it is less than 5,000 square feet in size, it is smaller than the minimum permissible residential building lot size for the jurisdiction (or 5,000 square feet, whichever is less), or it lacks recorded access and is less than 10,000 square feet in area. Moreover, the land is not adjacent to state or local agency-owned land designated for open-space or for low- to moderate-income housing.

Since the parcel is vacant, is less than 5,000 square feet, and is less than the minimum legal residential building lot size, the highest and best use is to become a joiner to one of the two adjacent parcels. The property owner of 2045 East Palmyra Avenue has approached the City and expressed interest in acquiring the property so he could fence it and stop the illegal use of the property.

Upon adoption of Resolution No. 11491, staff will initiate the surplus property disposal process for disposition of the parcel.

The property is 871 square feet (per assessor’srecords) and triangular shaped. The three sides of the property are East Palmyra Avenue cul-de-sac on the west, a residential tri-plex on the north (2045 East Palmyra Avenue), and vacant land on the south.

The subject parcel is a vacant lot and has been a continual problem with nuisance activity along Santiago Creek and the 55 freeway overpass.

The property is considered “surplusland”because it is owned in fee simple by the City of Orange and is not needed for current or potential future City use. Under the Surplus Land Act, as detailed in City of Orange Printed on 9/7/2023Page 1 of 2

is not needed for current or potential future City use. Under the Surplus Land Act, as detailed in Government Code sections 54220 and subsequent sections (the “Act”),sets forth the parameters for the disposal of “surplus land” by local agencies. In accordance with the Act, all government-owned property proposed to be declared as surplus must adhere to the definitions and guidelines set therein. As outlined under Government Code section 54221, “surplusland”refers to land that a city or local agency owns outright and is not necessary for its operational needs.

Further, pursuant to Government Code section 54221(f)(1)(B), certain properties can be classified as “exempt surplus land.” This property is exempt because it meets one or more of the following conditions: it is less than 5,000 square feet in size, it is smaller than the minimum permissible residential building lot size for the jurisdiction (or 5,000 square feet, whichever is less), or it lacks recorded access and is less than 10,000 square feet in area. Moreover, the land is not adjacent to state or local agency-owned land designated for open-space or for low- to moderate-income housing.

Since the parcel is vacant, is less than 5,000 square feet, and is less than the minimum legal residential building lot size, the highest and best use is to become a joiner to one of the two adjacent parcels. The property owner of 2045 East Palmyra Avenue has approached the City and expressed interest in acquiring the property so he could fence it and stop the illegal use of the property.

Upon adoption of Resolution No. 11491, staff will initiate the surplus property disposal process for disposition of the parcel.

RESOLUTION NO. 11491

A RESOLUTION OF THE CITY COUNCIL OF

THE CITY OF ORANGE DECLARING THAT

CERTAIN CITY-OWNED REAL PROPERTY
LOCATED ON THE SOUTH SIDE OF 2045 EAST

PALMYRA AVENUE IN THE CITY OF ORANGE

IS EXEMPT SURPLUS LAND PURSUANT TO
GOVERNMENT CODE SECTION 54221 AND

FINDING THAT THE FOREGOING ACTION IS

EXEMPT FROM REVIEW UNDER THE

CALIFORNIA ENVIRONMENTAL QUALITY
ACT

WHEREAS, the City of Orange (“City”) is a municipal corporation exercising governmental functions and powers, organized and existing under the laws of the State of California; and

WHEREAS, the City owns in fee simple certain real property consisting of approximately 871 square feet on the south side of 2045 East Palmyra Avenue, also known as Assessor’s Parcel No. 390 -502-09, as depicted in Exhibit A, incorporated herein by this reference (“Property”); and

WHEREAS, the Surplus Land Act, Government Code sections 54220 , et seq . (as amended, the “Act”) applies when a local agency disposes of “surplus land,” as that term is defined in Government Code section 54221; and

WHEREAS, the Property is “surplus land” under the Act because it is land owned in fee simple by the City and is not necessary for the City’s use and for which the City Council will take formal action (in the form of adoption of this Resolution) in a regular public meeting declaring that the land is surplus; and

WHEREAS, pursuant to the Act, at Government Code section 54221(f)(1)(B), “exempt surplus land” includes property that is “(i) less than 5,000 square feet in area, (ii) less than the minimum legal residential building lot size for the jurisdiction in which the parcel is located, or 5,000 square feet in area, whichever is less, or (iii) has no record access and is less than 10,000 square feet in area; and is not contiguous to land owned by a state or local agency that is used for open-space or low- and moderate-income housing purposes”; and

WHEREAS, staff intends to offer the Property for sale to contiguous property owners, consistent with the requirements of the Act at Government Code section 54221(f)(1)(B); and

WHEREAS, Government Code section 54222.3 provides that “this article shall not apply to the disposal of exempt surplus land as defined in Section 54221 by an agency of the state or any local agency”; and
417
2 WHEREAS, while pre-adoption review of a local agency’s resolution finding land to be exempt surplus land under the Act is encouraged but not required, a copy of this Resolution was submitted to the Public Lands Team at the Department of Housing and Community Development (“HCD”) on June 29, 2023 and a response from HCD was received on July 10, 2023 advising that the draft Resolution meets the requirements for an exemption and requesting a copy of the adopted Resolution once available for HCD to provide a findings letter; and

WHEREAS, the City Council desires to declare the Property as “exempt surplus land” consistent with and in compliance with the Act and that a copy of this Resolution be transmitted to HCD at least thirty (30) days prior to disposition, per HCD Guidelines.

NOW, THEREFORE, BE IT RESOLVED by the City Council of the City of Orange, on the basis of the facts set forth in the agenda report presented to it and any testimony received at the meeting at which this matter was considered, as follows:

1. That the foregoing recitals are true and correct.

2. That this Resolution has been reviewed with respect to the applicability of the California Environmental Quality Act (Public Resources Code Section 21000 , et seq .) (“CEQA”). Designation of the Property as exempt surplus land does not have the potential for creating a significant effect on the environment and is therefore exempt from further review under CEQA pursuant to CEQA Guidelines Section 15060(c)(3), because it is not a project as defined by the CEQA Guidelines, Sec tion 15378. Adoption of this Resolution does not have the potential for resulting in either a direct physical change in the environment or a reasonably foreseeable indirect physical change in the environment.

3. That the Property: (1) is surplus land because it is not necessary for the City’s use; (ii) is exempt, pursuant to Government Code section 54221(f)(1)(B)(i) because it is less than 5,000 square feet; (iii) the City intends to offer the Property for sale to contiguous property owners; and (iv) tha t the noticing requirements of the Act pertaining to surplus land are not applicable.

4. The City Manager, or designee, is authorized to take all steps necessary to offer the Property for sale to owners of contiguous land.

ARTICLE XXIII

GRIEV ANCE PROCEDURE
SECTION 1. DEFINITION OF GRIEV ANCE. A grievance shall be defined as a timely complaint by an employee or group of employees or the Association concerning the interpretation or application of specific provisions of this MOU, or of the Rules and Regulations governing personnel practices or working conditions of the City.

No employee shall suffer any reprisal because of filing or processing of a grievance or participating in the Grievance Procedure.

SECTION 2. BUSINESS DAYS . Business days mean calendar days, exclusive of Saturdays, Sundays, and legal holidays recognized by the City.

SECTION 3. TIME LIMIT FOR FILING WRITTEN FORMAL GRIEV ANCES. The time limits for filing written formal grievances shall be strictly construed, but may be extended by mutual agreement evidenced, in writing, and signed by a duly authorized representative of the City and the grieving party. Failure of the grieving part y to comply with any of the time limits set forth hereunder shall constitute a waiver and bar further processing of the grievance. Failure of the City to comply with the time limits set forth in this Article shall automatically move the grievan ce to the next level in the Grievance Procedure. The grieving party may request the assistance of the Association in presenting a grievance at any level of review or may represent himself. Grievances shall be presented on City time.

SECTION 4. INFORMAL PROCESS. An employee must first attempt to resolve the grievance on an informal basis by discussion with the immediate supervisor without undue delay, or in no case, more than five (5) business days from the date of the alleged incident giving rise to the grievance, or when the grievant knew or should have reasonably become aware of the facts giving rise to the grievance.

Every effort shall be made to find an acceptable solution to the grievance by these informal means at the most immediate level of supervision. At no time may the informal process go beyond the Police Chief. In order that this informal procedure may be responsive, all parties involved shall 467

30 expedite this process. The grievant is to state the remedy requested for the resolution of the grievance.

When, within five (5) business days, a mutually acceptable solution has not been reached at the informal level, the employee shall submit the grievance in writing, on a Grievance form, to be mutually agreed to by the City and the Association, to the Police Chief. At this point, the grievance hearing process becomes formal. Should the grievant fail to file a written grievance within ten (10) business days, as outlined under this Section (Section 4), the grievance shall be barred and waived.

The written grievance shall include the remedy requested for resolution of the grievance.

SECTION 5. FORMAL PROCESS, HUMAN RESOURCES DIRECTOR, POLICE CHIEF . If the grievance is not resolved through the informal process, and a written grievance is filed within the time limits set forth above, the grievant shall discuss the grievance with the Human Resources Director and the Police Chief. The Human Resources Director and the Police Chief shall render a decision and comments, in writing, regarding the merits of the grievance and return them to the grievant within ten (10) business days after receiving the grievance.

SECTION 6. FORMAL PROCESS, CITY MANAGER. If the grievance is not resolved in Section 5 above, or if no answer has been received from the Human Resources Director and Police Chief within ten (10) business days from the presentation of the written grievance to the Human Resources Director and the Police Chief , the written grievance shall be presented to the City Manager, or a duly authorized designee, for determination. Failure of the grievant to take this action will constitute a waiver and bar to the grievance, and the grievance will be considered settled on the basis of the last Management grievance response. The City Manager, or a duly authorized designee, shall render a final decision on the merits of the grievance and comments, in writing, and return them to the grievant within ten (10) business days after receiving the grievance. After this procedure is exhausted, the grievant, the Association, and the City shall have all rights and remedies to pursue said grievance under the law.

SECTION 7. In grievances filed to challenge the imposition of all discipline, the final step in the formal administrative process shall be a decision rendered by a Hearing Officer following a full and fair evidentiary hearing conducted by a Hearing Officer. If the parties cannot agree on the identity of the Hearing Officer, the parties shall procure from the Public Employment Relations Board (PERB) a list of seven (7) qualified Hearing Officers. Each party shall alternatively strike one name from the list until only one person remains, who shall be the Hearing Officer. The determination as to which party strikes first shall be made on a random basis.

The Hearing Officer shall determine whether good cause exists for the imposition of discipline and, if so, the appropriate degree of discipline, provided that the Hearing Officer may not impose more severe discipline than that assessed by the Police Depart ment. The decision of the hearing officer is subject to the right of either party to seek judicial review pursuant to Section 1094.5 of the California Code of Civil Procedure. The cost of the Hearing Officer shall be paid by the City.

Library staff, met to discuss these items; the subcommittee recommends the pocket park be named ‘CypressHeritage Park’.The subcommittee selected this name to honor the resilient community of hard-working, Mexican American families that established the foundation of the Barrio. Other names brought forward during the process were Antepasado Park (2nd choice) and Jamaica Park (3rd choice) as well as a few family names (Garcia, Alonzo, and Romo).

TO: Honorable Mayor and Members of the City Council

FROM: Christopher Cash, Public Works Director

1. SUBJECT
Implementation of permit parking on both sides on Greengrove Street from Meats Avenue to the southern terminus and both sides of Del Mar Avenue from Cambridge to Greengrove Streets.

Resolution No. 11488.

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 #5.

3. RECOMMENDED ACTION

1. Approve permit parking on both sides on Greengrove Street from Meats Avenue to the southern terminus and both sides of Del Mar Avenue from Cambridge to Greengrove Streets.

2. Adopt Resolution No. 11488. 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
None. Implementing permit parking would require nominal staff time.

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%. Moreover, the PPOA’s were created with the expectation that an initial surge in permit parking requests would occur, as affected residents begin responding to long-standing parking concerns. The number of permit parking applications is expected to ultimately stabilize once permit parking is activated within City of Orange Printed on 9/7/2023Page 1 of 2

Item #: 7.2. 9/12/2023 File #: 23-0574
the core areas of each PPOA.

After receiving a written request for permit parking from an eligible property owner, staff mailed petition packages to the affected property owners in March 2023. The polling process concluded at the end of April, the results of which indicate that 69% of the property owners are in favor of permit parking, 3% are opposed, and 28% did not respond. This level of support exceeds the 55% stipulated in the NPPP. Therefore, staff recommends permit parking.

The matter was presented to the City Traffic Commission (CTC) at their June 14, 2023, regular meeting, during which six residents spoke in favor (none opposed.) The CTC approved the request and forwarded to the City Council for final approval.

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.

• 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.

Agenda Item
City Traffic Commission
Item #: 4.3. 6/14/2023 File #: 23-0385
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 Del Mar Avenue from Cambridge to Greengrove Streets and both sides of Greengrove Street from Meats Avenue to the southerly terminus.

2. SUMMARY
This is a request to implement permit parking on the aforementioned streets which are located in Permit Parking Opportunity Area #5.

3. RECOMMENDED ACTION

1. Approve the implementation of permit parking on both sides of Del Mar Avenue from Cambridge to Greengrove Streets.

2. Approve the implementation of permit parking on both sides of Greengrove Street from Meats Avenue to its southerly terminus.

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 on the aforementioned streets from an eligible resident, staff mailed petition packages to the affected property owners in March 2023. The polling process concluded at the end of April, the results of which indicate that 69% of the property owners are in favor of permit parking, 3% are opposed, and 28% did not respond. This level of support City of Orange Printed on 6/8/2023Page 1 of 2
powered by Legistar™
33495
Item #: 4.3. 6/14/2023 File #: 23-0385
exceeds the 55% stipulated in the NPPP. Therefore, staff recommends permit parking be approved.

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

Subject: “Opportunity” area parking permit request
Hi Dave,

Thank you so much for making the Ɵme to speak with me a few weeks ago about the parking permit process for the new “opportunity area” in which we live.

We would like to request that E Del Mar Ave and N Greengrove St become “permit parking for residents only” areas.

The Del Mar area requested is both sides of the street, between Cambridge and Greengrove.

The Greengrove area requested is both sides of the street, between Meats and to the south where Greengrove dead ends.

AŌer talking with all of the neighbors, I am confident we will have more than enough “Yes” votes for this to move forward. Thank you again for your Ɵme. We all look forward to receiving the peƟƟons.

Sincerely,

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.

1. SUBJECT
Consideration of Potential Grand Street Parking Lot Preliminary Design Alternatives and Recommendations.

2. SUMMARY
Preliminary plans for two alternate surface parking lot layouts were designed for the Grand Street Parking Lot, primarily situated on the Old Fire Station Headquarters site and adjacent public parking lots. The purpose of this report is to receive direction on design options and recommendations.

3. RECOMMENDED ACTION
Provide direction to staff on presented design options and acknowledge proceeding with finalizing plans and specifications for the construction of the Grand Street Parking Lot.

4. FISCAL IMPACT
None. While future construction of the parking lot improvements will have associated fiscal impacts, no funding is currently being requested. Funds in 553 Capital Bond Proceeds and Fund 954 RDA Bonds have been identified for both the demolition of the existing buildings on site and for the construction of the parking lot.

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
With the relocation of Fire Station No. 1 and Headquarters (Fire HQ) to the new location on Water Street, the old Fire HQ currently sits empty. The former Fire HQ building is more than 50 years old and is seismically deficient. Its original utilitarian use as a fire station is not economically feasible for other commercial uses. The City had previously created a capital improvement project in anticipation of utilizing the former Fire HQ site, along with the adjacent existing public parking areas, for a bigger parking lot. The preliminary study of the site utilization as a consolidated parking lot is now complete and staff is seeking final direction from the City Council as to the size and scope of the project.

Two alternatives were evaluated for the Grand Street site encompassing most of the west side of Grand Street from Almond Avenue to the public parking lot just south of the Community Services Department offices. The main difference between the two alternatives is that Alternative 2 includes demolition of the City owned apartment building at 124-142 S Grand Street to incorporate the site into the new parking lot. Details for the two alternatives are described below and presented per the site plans attached:

Alternative 1 (Alt 1)
Alt 1 will require the demolition of only the Old Fire Headquarters building. Alt 1 will create a total of 111 parking stalls, which is a gain of 69 stalls from the existing City parking lot. The engineer’s estimate for the construction is $1,676,600 including a 10% contingency and 5% construction engineering cost. The cost per parking stall is $15,100.

Alternative 2 (Alt 2)
Alt 2 will require demolition of the Old Fire Headquarters building and the apartment building. The apartment building is a 10 unit - two story building. Alt 2 will have a total of 165 stalls, which is a gain of 106 stalls from the existing City parking lot and surface parking lot south of the Community Services building. The engineer’s estimate for the construction is $1,994,500 including a 10% contingency and 5% construction engineering cost. The cost per space is $12,100. An added benefit to Alt 2 is the enhanced circulation of the parking lot. The proposed lot will connect directly to the existing City lot south of the Community Services building, thus creating ingress/egress points on Grand Street, Almond Avenue, and Orange Street.

A summary of the two alternatives is shown in the table below.

Alternative 1 Alternative 2
Demolish Buildings Old Fire HQ Old Fire HQ + Apartment
Total Parking Stalls 111 165
Parking Stall Net Gain 69 106
Construction Cost $1,451,600 $1,726,800
Construction Cost + 15%
Contingency &
Construction
Management
$1,676,600 $1,994,500
City staff recommends proceeding with the final design for Alt 2 to maximize parking space and overall circulation of the Grand Street Parking Lot. The additional parking spaces created will increase parking availability for the Old Towne/Plaza area.

In 2019, the City also evaluated the Grand Street site for an east Old Towne parking structure to complement the Old Towne West Parking Structure. The cost to construct a three-level parking structure was estimated to be around $16,070,000 for a total number of 405 parking spaces. With construction cost escalation of 50%, today’scost is about $24 million or roughly $60,000 per space, five times more costly than the proposed surface parking improvement.

Staff also recently completed the Old Towne Parking Study, which looked at parking supply for the Plaza area. The Study found that the short and medium-term parking supply currently meets the parking demand, however, it identified a likely shortfall of around 500-600 spaces if Old Towne is fully City of Orange Printed on 9/7/2023Page 2 of 3

parking demand, however, it identified a likely shortfall of around 500-600 spaces if Old Towne is fully built out with high intensity parking uses such as restaurants. The Study suggests one potential augmentation to the City’sparking supply would be the development of the Grand Street Parking Lot as it represents a cost-effective and flexible solution. Based on the cost and the parking supply data, staff would not recommend a parking structure at this time as the construction of a surface parking lot provides a more cost-effective augmentation of parking. The addition of the added parking spaces should Alt 2 be selected is a 280% increase in the total parking supply. As parking is generally available in the Plaza area under most circumstances, this added parking should provide additional ease of parking access. If needed in the future, a surface parking lot can easily be repurposed for a parking structure if demand rises, or for other development opportunities as development conditions dictate and/or a better use for the site is identified.

If Alt 2 is selected for final design, staff will begin the process to notify residents of the impending closure of the apartment building and provide all appropriate relocation assistance and notifications as may be required. The final plan is expected to be completed by the end of this calendar year and the project could commence in the early part of 2024.

1. SUBJECT
Introduction and First Reading of an ordinance amending Chapter 3.08 of Title 3 of the Orange Municipal Code updating the City’s purchasing system. Ordinance No. 12-23.

2. SUMMARY
Ordinance No. 12-23 amends several sections of Chapter 3.08 related to the threshold for the use of purchase orders in connection with the procurement of materials, supplies or equipment, public projects, and professional services.

3. RECOMMENDED ACTION
Introduce and conduct First Reading of Ordinance No. 12-23. An Ordinance of the City Council of the City of Orange Amending Sections 3.08.080 and 3.08.410 of the Orange Municipal Code to update City’s Purchasing System.

4. FISCAL IMPACT
None.

5. STRATEGIC PLAN GOALS
Goal 2: Be a fiscally healthy community
a: Expend fiscal resources responsibly.
d: Effectively manage and develop City assets.

6. DISCUSSION AND BACKGROUND
Chapter 3.08 of the Orange Municipal Code (OMC) sets the City’sprocedures for the purchase of materials, supplies and equipment, professional services, and the selection of contractors to perform public works projects.

OMC Section 3.08.080 requires the procurement of all materials, supplies or equipment, public projects, and professional services of One Thousand Dollars ($1,000) or more to be made only by written purchase order (PO), requiring one reasonable quote. Procurements less than One Thousand Dollars ($1,000) are approved by departments at the invoice level.

Staff analyzed all purchases orders processed over the last three years, noting that of the approximately 4,000 POs issued, 1,800 (45%) of the total had a value between $1,000 and $5,000.

These POs generally consisted of one-time purchases of materials, supplies, or minor services City of Orange Printed on 9/7/2023Page 1 of 2
powered by Legistar™
515
Item #: 9.1. 9/12/2023 File #: 23-0577
These POs generally consisted of one-time purchases of materials, supplies, or minor services where most of the services were provided by small businesses or self-employed consultants with a single deliverable project rather than a large ongoing project.

As the purchasing thresholds have been in place for over 18 years, staff recommends OMC Section

3.08.080 and other related sections of Chapter 3.08 be amended to raise the dollar threshold for a written purchase order from $1,000 to $5,000.

This allows both the Purchasing Officer and department staff to use simplified and cost-effective operational procedures and forms, without the use of formal or informal bid procedures, while also reducing the number of annual purchase orders by almost 50%. Staff believes the standard department level invoice review process for purchases less than $5,000 will provide an appropriate level of safeguard on these purchase transactions.

The attached Ordinance No. 12-23 provides suggested revisions to the OMC Section 3.08.080 raising the dollar threshold for a written purchase order from $1,000 to $5,000.

At this time, staff recommends introducing and conducting the First Reading of Ordinance No. 12-23.

Many volunteers and community groups have dedicated time to clean and restore Santiago Creek to its natural beauty. In recognizing Santiago Creek’simportance to the Orange Community coupled with its recreational and scenic potential, it is recommended that an advisory commission be City of Orange Printed on 9/7/2023Page 1 of 2
