(h) Nothing in this section shall impose liability upon a public entity that makes loans or grants available through a competitive application process, for the failure of an awardee to meet its contractual obligations. (i) This section shall remain in effect only until January 1, 2027, and as of that date is repealed, unless a later enacted statute, that is enacted before January 1, 2027, deletes or extends that date. 162

Item #: 3.9. 9/26/2023 File #: 23-0602
The City Council previously approved the Purchase and Sale Agreement for the property located at 2829 N. Glassell Street on May 9, 2023. This property is located immediately adjacent to the parking lot for Olive Park.
As parking at Olive Park is inadequate to support the heavy use of the baseball fields, the subject property would be an ideal location to create additional overflow parking to support the park. The demolition of the site will include removal of the existing building, foundations, concrete slabs, grading and subgrade preparation, clearing and grubbing and placement of crushed aggregate base across the site.
The bid solicitation was advertised on August 17, 2023 as an informal bid for a period of two weeks and bids were opened on August 31, 2023. Four bids were received as follows:
Interior Demolition, Inc., Newhall $124,200.00
Resource Environmental, Inc., Cerritos $138,080.00
Danny Ryan Precision Contracting, Inc., Irvine $169,032.44 UBD, Inc., North Hollywood $184,983.00
There was a minor irregularity in the Interior Demolition, Inc. (Interior) bid. The bid package was missing pages P-6 (Public Contract Code Section 10285.1 Statement, Public Contract Code Section 10162 Questionnaire, and Public Contract Code Section 10232 Statement), P-7 (Non-Conclusion Affidavit), and P-8 (Debarment and Suspension Certification). The missing pages were subsequently submitted after the bid opening, so staff is recommending the City Council waive this minor public works bidding irregularity.
The low bid is about 30.7% lower than the Engineer’s Estimate of $179,000. Staff checked the references and qualifications for Interior Demolition, Inc., and found them to be acceptable, with adequate years of experience in completing contracts of a similar nature to this project. Therefore, staff recommends that Interior Demolition, Inc., be awarded the contract in the amount of $136,620, representing an original bid amount of $124,200, plus a 10% contingency of $12,420, for Demolition of Building at 2829 N. Glassell Street.
Construction is scheduled to begin in November 2023 and is expected to be completed by December 2023.

(B) Beginning June 1, 2019, a contractor may register or renew according to this subdivision in annual increments up to three years from the date of registration. Contractors who wish to do so will be required to prepay the applicable nonrefundable application or renewal fees to qualify for the number of years for which they wish to preregister.
(2) Provide evidence, disclosures, or releases as are necessary to establish all of the following:
(A) Workers' compensation coverage that meets the requirements of Division 4 (commencing with Section 3200) and includes sufficient coverage for any worker whom the contractor employs to perform work that is subject to prevailing wage requirements other than a contractor who is separately registered under this section.

(3) The requirements of this section shall apply prospectively only to any subsequent bid, bid proposal, contract, or work performed after the awarding body is served with notice of the determination or decision referred to in paragraph (2).

(2) Within 24 hours after the bid opening, the subcontractor is registered and has paid the penalty registration fee specified in subparagraph (E) of paragraph (2) of subdivision (a) of Section 1725.5. (3) The subcontractor is replaced by another registered subcontractor pursuant to Section 4107 of the Public Contract Code.
(d) Failure by a subcontractor to be registered to perform public work as required by subdivision (a) shall be grounds under Section 4107 of the Public Contract Code for the contractor, with the consent of the awarding authority, to substitute a subcontractor who is registered to perform public work pursuant to Section 1725.5 in place of the unregistered subcontractor.
(e) The department shall maintain on its Internet Web site a list of contractors who are currently registered to perform public work pursuant to Section 1725.5.
(f) A contract entered into with any contractor or subcontractor in violation of subdivision (a) shall be subject to cancellation, provided that a contract for public work shall not be unlawful, void, or voidable solely due to the failure of the awarding body, contractor, or any subcontractor to comply with the requirements of Section 1725.5 or this section.
(g) If the Labor Commissioner or his or her designee determines that a contractor or subcontractor engaged in the performance of any public work contract without having been registered in accordance with this section, the contractor or subcontractor shall forfeit, as a civil penalty to the state, one hundred dollars ($100) for each day of work performed in violation of the registration requirement, not to exceed an aggregate penalty of eight thousand dollars ($8,000) in addition to any penalty registration fee assessed pursuant to clause (ii) of subparagraph (E) of paragraph (2) of subdivision (a) of Section 1725.5. (h)(1) In addition to, or in lieu of, any other penalty or sanction authorized pursuant to this chapter, a higher tiered public works contractor or subcontractor who is found to have entered into a subcontract with an unregistered lower tier subcontractor to perform any public work in violation of the requirements of Section 1725.5 or this section shall be subject to forfeiture, as a civil penalty to the state, of one hundred dollars ($100) 185
Attachment No. 1
for each day the unregistered lower tier subcontractor performs work in violation of the registration requirement, not to exceed an aggregate penalty of ten thousand dollars ($10,000). (2) The Labor Commissioner shall use the same standards specified in subparagraph (A) of paragraph (2) of subdivision (a) of Section 1775 when determining the severity of the violation and what penalty to assess, and may waive the penalty for a first time violation that was unintentional and did not hinder the Labor Commissioner's ability to monitor and enforce compliance with the requirements of this chapter.

(E) The difference between the prevailing wage rates and the amount paid to each worker for each calendar day or portion thereof for which each worker was paid less than the prevailing wage rate shall be paid to each worker by the contractor or subcontractor, and the body awarding the contract shall cause to be inserted in the contract a stipulation that this section will be complied with. (b) If a worker employed by a subcontractor on a public works project is not paid the general prevailing rate of per diem wages by the subcontractor, the prime contractor of the project is not liable for any penalties under subdivision (a) unless the prime contractor had knowledge of that failure of the subcontractor to pay the specified prevailing rate of wages to those workers or unless the prime contractor fails to comply with all of the following requirements:

Section 1777.5. Employment of registered apprentices; wages; standards; number; apprenticeable craft or trade; exemptions; contributions; compliance program
(a)(1) This chapter does not prevent the employment upon public works of properly registered apprentices who are active participants in an approved apprenticeship program. (2) For purposes of this chapter, “apprenticeship program” means a program under the jurisdiction of the California Apprenticeship Council established pursuant to Section 3070. (b)(1) Every apprentice employed upon public works shall be paid the prevailing rate of per diem wages for apprentices in the trade to which he or she is registered and shall be employed only at the work of the craft or trade to which he or she is registered.
(2) Unless otherwise provided by a collective bargaining agreement, when a contractor requests the dispatch of an apprentice pursuant to this section to perform work on a public works project and requires the apprentice to fill out an application or underg o testing, training, an examination, or other preemployment process as a condition of employment, the apprentice shall be paid for the time spent on the required preemployment activity, including travel time to and from the required activity, if any, at the prevailing rate of per diem wages for apprentices in the trade to which he or she is registered. Unless otherwise provided by a collective bargaining agreement, a contractor is not required to compensate an apprentice for the time spent on preemployment activities if the apprentice is required to take a preemployment drug or alcohol test and he or she fails to pass that test.
(c) Only apprentices, as defined in Section 3077, who are in training under apprenticeship standards that have been approved by the Chief of the Division of Apprenticeship Standards and who are parties to written 191
Attachment No. 1
apprentice agreements under Chapter 4 (commencing with Section 3070) of Division 3 are eligible to be employed at the apprentice wage rate on public works. The employment and training of each apprentice shall be in accordance with either of the following:
(1) The apprenticeship standards and apprentice agreements under which he or she is training. (2) The rules and regulations of the California Apprenticeship Council. (d) If the contractor to whom the contract is awarded by the state or any political subdivision, in performing any of the work under the contract, employs workers in any apprenticeable craft or trade, the contractor shall employ apprentices in at least the ratio set forth in this section and may apply to any apprenticeship program in the craft or trade that can provide apprentices to the site of the public work for a certificate approving the contractor under the apprenticeship standards for the employment and training of apprentices in the area or industry affected. However, the decision of the apprenticeship program to approve or deny a certificate shall be subject to review by the Administrator of Apprenticeship. The apprenticeship program or programs, upon approving the contractor, shall arrange for the dispatch of apprentices to the contractor. A contractor covered by an apprenticeship program's standards shall not be required to submit any additional application in order to include additional public works contracts under that program. “Apprenticeable craft or trade,” as used in this section, means a craft or trade determined as an apprenticeable occupation in accordance with rules and regulations prescribed by the California Apprenticeship Council. As used in this section, “contractor” includes any subcontractor under a contractor who performs any public works not excluded by subdivision (o).
(e) Before commencing work on a contract for public works, every contractor shall submit contract award information to an applicable apprenticeship program that can supply apprentices to the site of the public work.
The information submitted shall include an estimate of journeyman hours to be performed under the contract, the number of apprentices proposed to be employed, and the approximate dates the apprentices would be employed. A copy of this information shall also be submitted to the awarding body, i f requested by the awarding body. Within 60 days after concluding work on the contract, each contractor and subcontractor shall submit to the awarding body, if requested, and to the apprenticeship program a verified statement of the journeyman and apprentice hours performed on the contract. The information under this subdivision shall be public. The apprenticeship programs shall retain this information for 12 months. (f) The apprenticeship program supplying apprentices to the area of the site of the public work shall ensure equal employment and affirmative action in apprenticeship for women and minorities. (g) The ratio of work performed by apprentices to journeymen employed in a particular craft or trade on the public work may be no higher than the ratio stipulated in the apprenticeship standards under which the apprenticeship program operates if the contractor agrees to be bound by those standards. However, except as otherwise provided in this section, in no case shall the ratio be less than one hour of apprentice work for every five hours of journeyman work.
(h) This ratio of apprentice work to journeyman work shall apply during any day or portion of a day when any journeyman is employed at the jobsite and shall be computed on the basis of the hours worked during the day by journeymen so employed. Any work performed by a journeyman in excess of eight hours per day or 40 hours per week shall not be used to calculate the ratio. The contractor shall employ apprentices for the number of hours computed as above before the end of the contract or, in the case of a s ubcontractor, before the end of the subcontract. However, the contractor shall endeavor, to the greatest extent possible, to employ apprentices during the same time period that the journeymen in the same craft or trade are employed at the jobsite. When an hourly apprenticeship ratio is not feasible for a particular craft or trade, the Administrator 192
Attachment No. 1
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 Administrator 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 th e apprentice is to be assigned is of a nature that training cannot be provided by a journeyman.
(l) If an exemption 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 Indust rial 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:
193
Attachment No. 1
(i) If there is an approved multiemployer 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, adequate records incl ude, 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 recei ve any future grant pursuant to this subdivision and the Department of Industrial Relations may initiate th e 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 purpose 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 194
Attachment No. 1
the contract by the respective contractor or subcontractor for each calendar day during which the worker is required or permitted to work more than 8 hours in any one calendar day and 40 hours in any one calendar week in violation of the provisions of this article. 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 executi on of the contract, 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 h ours per day at not less than 1 ½ times the basic rate of pay.

(B) Within 10 business days following the conclusion of the meet and confer conference, if the claim or any portion of the claim remains in dispute, the public entity shall provide the claimant a written statement identifying the portion of the claim that remains in dispute and the portion that is undisputed. Any payment due on an undisputed portion of the claim shall be processed and made within 60 days after the public entity issues its written statement. Any disputed portion of the claim, as identified by the contractor in writing, shall be submitted to nonbinding mediation, with the public entity and the claimant sharing the associated costs equally. The public entity and claimant shall mutually agree to a mediator within 10 business days after the disputed portion of the claim has been identified in writing. If the parties cannot agree upon a mediator, each party shall select a mediator and those mediators shall select a qualified neutral third party to mediate with regard to the disputed portion of the claim. Each party shall bear the fees and costs charged by its respective mediator in connection with the selection of the neutral mediator. If mediation is unsuccessful, the parts of the claim remaining in dispute shall be subject to applicable procedures outside this section. 197
Attachment No. 2
(C) For purposes of this section, mediation includes any nonbinding process, including, but not limited to, neutral evaluation or a dispute review board, in which an independent third party or board assists the parties in dispute resolution through negotiation or by issuance of an evaluation. Any mediation utilized shall conform to the timeframes in this section.
(D) Unless otherwise agreed to by the public entity and the contractor in writing, the mediation conducted pursuant to this section shall excuse any further obligation under Section 20104.4 to mediate after litigation has been commenced.
(E) This section does not preclude a public entity from requiring arbitration of disputes under private arbitration or the Public Works Contract Arbitration Program, if mediation under this section does not resolve the parties’ dispute.
(3) Failure by the public entity to respond to a claim from a contractor within the time periods described in this subdivision or to otherwise meet the time requirements of this section shall result in the claim being deemed rejected in its entirety. A claim that is denied by reason of the public entity’s failure to have responded to a claim, or its failure to otherwise meet the time requirements of this section, shall not constitute an adverse finding with regard to the merits of the claim or the responsibility or qualifications of the claimant. (4) Amounts not paid in a timely manner as required by this section shall bear interest at 7 percent per annum. (5) If a subcontractor or a lower tier subcontractor lacks legal standing to assert a claim against a public entity because privity of contract does not exist, the contractor may present to the public entity a claim on behalf of a subcontractor or lower tier subcontractor. A subcontractor may request in writing, either on their own behalf or on behalf of a lower tier subcontractor, that the contractor present a claim for work which was performed by the subcontractor or by a lower tier subcontractor on behal f of the subcontractor. The subcontractor requesting that the claim be presented to the public entity shall furnish reasonable documentation to support the claim. Within 45 days of receipt of this written request, the contractor shall notify the subcontrac tor in writing as to whether the contractor presented the claim to the public entity and, if the original contractor did not present the claim, provide the subcontractor with a statement of the reasons for not having done so. (e) The text of this section or a summary of it shall be set forth in the plans or specifications for any public works project that may give rise to a claim under this section. (f) A waiver of the rights granted by this section is void and contrary to public policy, provided, however, that (1) upon receipt of a claim, the parties may mutually agree to waive, in writing, mediation and proceed directly to the commencement of a civi l action or binding arbitration, as applicable; and (2) a public entity may prescribe reasonable change order, claim, and dispute resolution procedures and requirements in addition to the provisions of this section, so long as the contractual provisions do not conflict with or otherwise impair the timeframes and procedures set forth in this section. (g) This section applies to contracts entered into on or after January 1, 2017. (h) Nothing in this section shall impose liability upon a public entity that makes loans or grants available through a competitive application process, for the failure of an awardee to meet its contractual obligations. (i) This section shall remain in effect only until January 1, 2027, and as of that date is repealed, unless a later enacted statute, that is enacted before January 1, 2027, deletes or extends that date. 198

Consideration of a two-year professional services agreement with Townsend Public Affairs, Inc. for grant writing and legislative advocacy services.
2. SUMMARY
The California State Legislature introduces thousands of bills each legislative session with varying degrees of potential impact on local agencies. Over the past year, Townsend Public Affairs, Inc. has provided excellent services to the Orange community, bringing the City’sattention to consequential grants and legislation. In considering the benefits Townsend Public Affairs, Inc. has brought to the City coupled with their understanding of the community’sneeds, it is recommended the City Council approve a two-year agreement with Townsend Public Affairs, Inc.
3. RECOMMENDED ACTION

6. DISCUSSION AND BACKGROUND
On October 11, 2022, the Orange City Council approved a one-year, $96,000 professional services agreement (PSA) with Townsend Public Affairs, Inc. (TPA) for legislative advocacy and grant writing services. Upon entering into a PSA, City representatives met with TPA to identify legislative and grant priorities. In relying on their experience, professional network, and legislative acumen, TPA was able City of Orange Printed on 9/21/2023Page 1 of 2

priorities. In relying on their experience, professional network, and legislative acumen, TPA was able to strategize a clear plan and produce significant benefits for the Orange Community.
While competitive grants, the California State budget process, and the federal appropriations process are excellent methods to secure proceeds for community projects, thousands of projects are submitted for consideration. TPA has demonstrated a clear understanding of the best methods to employ in order to secure funding through these processes. The TPA team worked with City staff to identify projects with the greatest likelihood of grant or earmark selections. As a result of these efforts, TPA secured $3,189,950 through various funding opportunities (with over $3,000,000 in additional funds pending approval).
The total proposed annual agreement amount represents only 3% of the funding secured through TPA in the past year. Additionally, continued investment provides the City of Orange a significant opportunity to advance important community projects. With TPA’srecent success and demonstrated understanding of the Orange community, City staff recommends the City Council approve a two-year agreement with TPA totaling $216,000. The proposed two-year agreement locks in a $1,000 per month increase to more proactively engage in securing funding on behalf of the City through the State and Federal funding cycles. It should also be noted that despite the $1,000 per month increase, TPA’s rate remains lower than the other proposals received last year for all-inclusive services (i.e., legislative advocacy and grant writing) making TPA the most cost-effective, responsible bidder.
Should the City Council approve this agreement, City staff will continue to work with TPA on identifying viable funding opportunities while ensuring Orange has a greater legislative voice in Sacramento.

As a result of these efforts, TPA secured $3,189,950 through various funding opportunities (with over $3,000,000 in additional funds pending approval).
The total proposed annual agreement amount represents only 3% of the funding secured through TPA in the past year. Additionally, continued investment provides the City of Orange a significant opportunity to advance important community projects. With TPA’srecent success and demonstrated understanding of the Orange community, City staff recommends the City Council approve a two-year agreement with TPA totaling $216,000. The proposed two-year agreement locks in a $1,000 per month increase to more proactively engage in securing funding on behalf of the City through the State and Federal funding cycles. It should also be noted that despite the $1,000 per month increase, TPA’s rate remains lower than the other proposals received last year for all-inclusive services (i.e., legislative advocacy and grant writing) making TPA the most cost-effective, responsible bidder.
Should the City Council approve this agreement, City staff will continue to work with TPA on identifying viable funding opportunities while ensuring Orange has a greater legislative voice in Sacramento.

2. SUMMARY
Underscoring the City’sefforts to expand parks and open space as well as to complement newer developments in west Orange, a 2.38-acre site managed by Orange County Flood Control District was identified for passive park uses. A proposed 50-year lease agreement between Orange County Flood Control District and the City of Orange for park development and management is presented for City Council consideration.

Goal 3: Enhance and Promote Quality of Life in the Community a. Renovate, maintain, develop, and/or expand public use places and spaces.
6. DISCUSSION AND BACKGROUND
To expand the City of Orange’sparks/open space and to augment existing recreational amenities, City staff evaluated park development options in proximity and accessible to west Orange residents.

as exercise equipment, passive areas, a dog amenity, kids play feature, landscape, and seating. The proximity to the existing Santa Ana River bike trail also presents an opportunity to create interface features between the park and trail. In addition, the park will serve residents in existing developments, and complement future development(s) west of the Site.
While the Site development process may entail multiple steps, a critical milestone is to secure the County of Orange’sapproval to utilize the Site for passive park uses. The County of Orange has been in ongoing communication with City staff, culminating in the proposed long-term lease agreement for City Council consideration. Provided below are key tenants in the proposed lease agreement:
· 50-Year Lease Agreement.
· Site leased to City on a rent-free basis.
· Passive Park uses, including walkways, monumentation/trail signage, and landscape improvements.
· No restroom facilities are permitted.
· City cannot collect park entry fees.
· City must manage and maintain the premises consistent with other parks within the City of Orange and will apply/enforce City of Orange park rules. · OCFCD reserves the right to enter the Site for flood control operation purposes.
In consideration of the above, it is recommended the City Council approve a 50-year lease Agreement with OCFCD and authorize the Mayor and City Clerk to execute the agreement on behalf of the City of Orange. Should the City Council approve the proposed lease agreement, City staff will continue to work on Site development funding opportunities and next steps.

20. BEST MANAGEMENT PRACTICES (PMF11.2S)
TENANT and all Tenant Parties shall conduct operations and activities under this Lease so as to assure that pollutants do not enter municipal storm drain systems which systems are comprised of, but are not limited to curbs and gutters that are part of the street systems (" Stormwater Drainage System"), and to ensure that pollutants do not directly impact "Receiving Waters" (as used herein, Receiving Waters include, but are not limited to, rivers, creeks, streams, estuaries, lakes, harbors, bays and oceans).
The Santa Ana and San Diego Regional Water Quality Control Boards have issued National Pollutant Discharge Elimination System permits (" Stormwater Permits ") to the County of Orange, and to the Orange County Flood Control District and cities within Orange County, as co -permittees (hereinafter collectively referred to as "County Parties") which regulate the discharge of urban runoff from areas within the County of Orange, including the Premises leased under this Lease. The County Parties have enacted water quality ordinances that prohibit conditions and activities that may result in polluted runoff being discharged into the Stormwater Drainage System.
To assure compliance with the Stormwater Permits and water quality ordinances, the County Parties have developed a Drainage Area Management Plan ( “DAMP”) which includes a Local Implementation Plan (“LIP”) for each jurisdiction that contains Best Management Practices ( “BMP(s)”) that parties using properties within Orange County must adhere to. As used herein, a BMP is defined as a technique, measure, or structural control that is used for a given set of conditions to manage the quantity and improve the quality of stormwater runoff in a cost effective manner. These BMPs are found within the County’s LIP in the form of Model Maintenance Procedures and BMP Fact Sheets (the Model Maintenance Procedures and BMP Fact Sheets contained in the DAMP/LIP shall be referred to hereinafter collectively as "BMP Fact Sheets") and contain pollution prevention and source control techniques to eliminate non-stormwater discharges and minimize the impact of pollutants on stormwater runoff.
BMP Fact Sheets that apply to uses authorized under this Lease include the BMP Fact Sheets that are attached hereto as Exhibit D. These BMP Fact Sheets may be modified during the term of the Lease; and TENANT shall be responsible for the acquisition of any updated BMP Fact sheets in a timely manner.
TENANT and Tenant Parties shall, throughout the term of this Lease, comply with the BMP Fact Sheets as they exist now or are modified, and shall comply with all other requirements of the Stormwater Permits, as they exist at the time this Lease commences or as the Stormwater Permits may be modified. TENANT 245
12 OCFCD – SART
Santa Ana River (E01-1116.01)
City of Orange- West Orange Park
agrees to maintain current copies of the BMP Fact Sheets in TENANT’s administrative offices throughout the term of this Lease. The BMPs applicable to uses authorized under this Lease must be performed as described within all applicable BMP Fact Sheets.
TENANT may propose alternative BMPs that meet or exceed the pollution prevention performance of the BMP Fact Sheets. Any such alternative BMPs shall be submitted to the Chief Real Estate Officer through the CPP process for review and approval prior to implementation.
Chief Real Estate Officer may enter the Premises and/or review TENANT’s records at any time to assure that activities conducted on the Premises comply with the requirements of this Section. TENANT may be required to implement a self-evaluation program to demonstrate compliance with the requirements of this Section.
21. INDEMNIFICATION AND HOLD HARMLESS (PMGE 10.2N)
TENANT acknowledges that the Premises may be subject to all hazards associated therewith including, but not limited, to noise, dust, inundation, erosion, settling, overflow and rapid and potentially dangerous increases in the volume of water due to the Premises location by the Channel. TENANT on behalf of itself, its assigns, and successors in interests agrees to assume all risks, financial or otherwise, associated therewith, including but not limited to, destruction of its improvements or facilities, and/ or interruption in or restricted use of or access to the Premises whether temporary or permanent, due to flood conditions, storm runoff, dust, noise, or due to DISTRICT’s use of or operations conducted in, on, over, or about the Premises.
TENANT hereby agrees to indemnify, defend (with counsel approved in writing by DISTRICT), and hold harmless, DISTRICT and the County, their respective elected and appointed officials, officers, agents, employees and contractors against any and all claims, losses, demands, damages, cost, expenses or liability for injury to any persons or property, arising out of the opera tion or maintenance of the Premises, and/or TENANT's exercise of the rights under this Lease including use of the Premises by the general p ublic, except for liability arising out of the active or sole negligence of DISTRICT, its elected and appointed officials, officers, agents, employees or contractors including the cost of defense of any lawsuit arising therefrom. If DISTRICT and/or County is named as co-defendant in a lawsuit in connection with this Lease, TENANT shall notify DISTRICT of such fact and shall represent DISTRICT and/or County in such legal action unless DISTRICT undertakes to represent itself as co-defendant in such legal action, in which event, TENANT shall pay to DISTRICT and County their litigation costs, expenses, and attorney fees. If judgment is entered against DISTRICT and TENANT by a court of competent jurisdiction because of the concurrent active negligence of DISTRICT and TENANT, DISTRICT and TENANT agree that liability will be apportioned as determined by the court. Neither party shall request a jury apportionment. A judgment or other judicial determination regarding DISTRICT's negligence shall not be a condition prec edent to TENANT's obligations stated in this Section.
TENANT acknowledges that it is familiar with the language and provisions of California Civil Code Section 1542 which provides as follows:
A general release does not extend to claims that the creditor or releasing party does not know or suspect to exist in his or her favor at the time of executing the release and that, if known by him or her, would have materially affected his or her settlement with the debtor or released party.
TENANT, being aware of and understanding the terms of Section 1542, hereby waives all benefit of its provisions to the extent described in this Section.

Santa Ana River (E01-1116.01)
City of Orange- West Orange Park
B. Remedies. In the event of any default by TENANT, then, in addition to any other remedies available to DISTRICT at law or in equity, DISTRICT may exercise the following remedies:
1. DISTRICT may terminate this Lease and all rights of TENANT hereunder by giving written notice of such termination to TENANT. In the event that DISTRICT shall so elect to terminate this Lease, then DISTRICT may recover from TENANT:
(a) The worth at the time of award of the unpaid rent and other charges, which had been earned as of the date of the termination hereof;
(b) The worth at the time of award of the amount by which the unpaid rent and other charges which would have been earned after the date of the termination hereof until the time of award exceeds the amount of such rental loss that TENANT proves could have been reasonably avoided; (c) The worth at the time of award of the amount by which the unpaid rent and other charges for the balance of the term hereof after the time of award exceeds the amount of such rental loss that TENANT proves could be reasonably avoided;
(d) Any other amount necessary to compensate DISTRICT for all the detriment proximately caused by TENANT’s failure to perform its obligations under this Lease or which in the ordinary course of things would be likely to result therefrom, including, but not limited to, the cost of recovering possession of the Premises, expenses of reletting, including necessary repair, renovation and alteration of the Premises, reasonable attorneys' fees, expert witness costs, and any other reasonable costs; and (e) Any other amount which DISTRICT may by law hereafter be permitted to recover from TENANT to compensate DISTRICT for the detriment caused by TENANT’s default.
The term "rent" as used herein shall be deemed to be and to mean the annual rent and all other sums required to be paid by TENANT pursuant to the terms of this Lease. All such sums, other than the annual rent, shall be computed on the basis of the average monthly amount thereof accruing during the 24-month period immediately prior to default, except that if it becomes necessary to compute such rental before such 24-month period has occurred, then such sums shall be computed on the basis of the average mon thly amount during such shorter period. As used in subparagraphs B.1.(a) and B.1.(b) above, the "worth at the time of award" shall be computed by allowing interest at the maximum rate permitted by law. As used in subparagraph B.1.(c) above, the "worth at the time of award" shall be computed by discounting such amount at the discount rate of the Federal Reserve Bank of San Francisco at the time of award plus one percent (1%), but not in excess of ten percent (10%) per annum.
2. DISTRICT may c ontinue this Lease in effect without terminating TENANT ’s right to possession even though TENANT has breached this Lease and abandoned the Premises and to enforce all of DISTRICT’s rights and remedies under this Lease, at law or in equity, including the right to recover the rent as it becomes due under this Lease; provided, however, that DISTRICT may at any time thereafter elect to terminate this Lease for such previous breach by no tifying TENANT in writing that TENANT ’s right to possession of the Premises has been terminated.
Nothing in this Section shall be deemed to affect TENANT’s indemnity of DISTRICT liability or liabilities based upon occurrences prior to the termination of this Lease for personal injuries or property damage under the indemnification clause or clauses contained in this Lease.
No delay or omission of DISTRICT to exercise any right or remedy shall be construed as a waiver of such right or remedy or any default by TENANT hereunder. The acceptance by DISTRICT of rent or any other 257
24 OCFCD – SART
Santa Ana River (E01-1116.01)
City of Orange- West Orange Park
sums hereunder shall not be (a) a waiver of any preceding breach or default by TENANT of any provision thereof, other than the failure of TENANT to pay the particular rent or sum accepted, regardless of DISTRICT’s knowledge of such preceding breach or default at the time of acceptance of such rent or sum, or (b) waiver of DISTRICT’s right to exercise any remedy available to DISTRICT by virtue of such breach or default. No act or thing done by DISTRICT or DISTRICT ’s agents during the term of this Lease shall be deemed an acceptance of a surrender of the Premises, and no agreement to accept a surrender shall be valid unless in writing and signed by DISTRICT.
Any installment or rent due under this Lease or any other sums not paid to DISTRICT when due (other than interest) shall bear interest at the maximum rate allowed by law from the date such payment is due until paid, provided, however, that the payment of such interest shall not excuse or cure the default.
All covenants and agreements to be performed by TENANT under any of the terms of this Lease shall be performed by TENANT at TENANT ’s sole cost and expenses and without any abatement of rent. If TENANT shall fail to pay any sum of money, other than rent required to be paid by it hereunder or shall fail to perform any other act on its part to be performed hereunder, or to provide any insurance or evidence of insurance to be provided by TENANT, then in addition to any other remedies provided herein, DISTRICT may, but shall not be obligated to do so, and without waiving or releasing TENANT from any obligations of TENANT, make any such payment or perform any such act on TENANT’s part to be made or performed as provided in this Lease or to provide such insurance. Any payment or performance of any act or the provision of any such insurance by DISTRICT on TENANT ’s behalf shall not give rise to any responsibility of DISTRICT to continue making the same or similar payments or performing the same or similar acts. All costs, expenses, and other sums incurred or paid by DISTRICT in connection therewith, together with interest at the maximum rate permitted by law from the date incurred or paid by DISTRICT shall be deemed to be additional rent hereunder and shall be paid by TENANT with and at the same time as the next monthly installment of rent hereunder, and any default therein shall constitute a breach of the covenants and conditions of this Lease.
17. RESERVATIONS TO DISTRICT (PMG18.1 S)
The Premises are accepted as is and where is by TENANT subject to any and all existing easements and Encumbrances. DISTRICT reserves the right to install, lay, construct, maintain, repair, and operate such sanitary sewers, drains, storm water sewers, pipe lines, manholes, and connections; water, oil, and gas pipelines; telephone and telegraph power lines; and the appliances and appurtenances necessary or convenient in connection therewith, in, over, upon, through, across, and along the Premises or any part thereof, and to enter the Premises for any and all such purposes. DISTRICT also reserves the right to grant franchises, easements, rights of way, and permits in, over, upon, through, across, and along any and all portions of the Premises. No right reserved by DISTRICT in this clause shall be so exercised as to interfere unreasonably with TENANT’s operations hereunder or to impair the security of any secured creditor of TENANT.
DISTRICT agrees that rights granted to third parties by reason of this clause shall contain provisions that the surface of the land shall be restored as nearly as practicable to its original condition upon the completion of any construction. DISTRICT further agrees that should the exercise of these rights temporarily interfere with the use of any or all of the Premises by TENANT, the rental shall be reduced in proportion to the interference with TENANT’s use of the Premises.

City of Orange- West Orange Park

1. SUBJECT
Implementation of permit parking on both sides of Palm Avenue from Wayfield Street to Park Lane; both sides of Wayfield Circle south of Palm Avenue; both sides of Park Lane from Dana Place to Palm Avenue; and both sides of Wayfield Street between Palm and Walnut Avenues. Resolution No. 11495.
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 #3.
3. RECOMMENDED ACTION
1. Approve permit parking on the streets listed above.
2. Adopt Resolution No. 11495. 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. 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 the core areas City of Orange Printed on 9/21/2023Page 1 of 2

of each PPOA.
After receiving multiple written requests for permit parking on the aforementioned streets (in PPOA #3), staff mailed petition packages to affected property owners in June 2023. The poling process concluded in July, the results of which indicated that Palm Avenue (57%); Wayfield Circle (75%); and Park Lane (78%) each exceeded the minimum required 55% support stipulated in the NPPP. In accordance with NPPP guidelines, staff recommended that the City Traffic Commission (CTC) approve permit parking for Palm Avenue, Wayfield Circle, and Park Lane at their August 9, 2023, regular meeting. The CTC granted approval with a 5-0 vote. Wayfield Street, which at the time had not yet demonstrated the necessary support level, was not a part of staff’srecommendation to the CTC.
Notwithstanding the above and based on public input, the Commission moved a separate motion (which passed 5-0) to also approve permit parking on Wayfield Street, conditioned upon the necessary number of supporting petitions being delivered to the City before August 31, 2023. As of the August 31 deadline, Wayfield Street achieved 70% support, thus satisfying the CTC condition.
Based on the above, staff is recommending that the City Council grant final approval to implement permit parking on said segments of Palm Avenue, Wayfield Circle, Park Lane, and Wayfield Street. It should be noted that property owners on any other street(s) within the PPOA may request permit parking in the future by following the activation (opt-in) procedures described above.

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.

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.

Agenda Item
City Traffic Commission
Item #: 4.1. 8/9/2023 File #: 23-0523
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 Palm Avenue between Wayfield Street and Park Lane; Wayfield Circle south of Palm Avenue; and Park Lane between Palm and Dana Avenues.
2. SUMMARY
This is a request to implement permit parking on the aforementioned streets which are located in Permit Parking Opportunity Area #3. The request meets all of the requirements set forth in the City’s Neighborhood Permit Parking Program.
3. RECOMMENDED ACTION
1. Approve the implementation of permit parking on the aforementioned streets.
2. 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). PPOA are 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 two separate written requests for permit parking for the aforementioned streets (in PPOA #3) from two eligible residents, staff mailed petition packages to the property owners on the affected streets in June 2023. The poling process concluded in July, the results of which indicated that each of the streets individually demonstrated sufficient support for permit parking: 57% on Palm Avenue; 75% on Wayfield Circle; and 78% on Park Lane. Because the levels of support exceed the City of Orange Printed on 8/2/2023Page 1 of 2

Avenue; 75% on Wayfield Circle; and 78% on Park Lane. Because the levels of support exceed the 55% stipulated in the NPPP, staff recommends permit parking.
The requests for permit parking also included Wayfield Street between Palm and Walnut avenues.
As a result, Wayfield Street was also petitioned; however, because the 55% threshold was not satisfied, staff cannot recommend permit parking at this time. Staff will continue to accept incoming petitions within a reasonable period and, should the necessary support level be achieved, can recommend Wayfield Street for permit parking on a future (October) City Traffic Commission agenda.
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 in the permit parking program is voluntary; however, any vehicle parked on the street without a permit will be subject to citation.

Hi Dave,
This is a letter of request for the Parking Permit Project. I am requesting this parking permit opportunity for Area 3 which is Palm Avenue and Wayfield Circle. This is also a request for Wayfield Street and Park Lane area.
I live at 1904 E. Palm Avenue and parking is definitely a daily problem.
If there is anything further you need from me, please let me know.

Subject: RE: July 12 Council Agenda Item No. 7.1 - Permit Parking on Sections of Palm Ave, Park Ln, and Wayfield Cir
Attachments: NPPP Implementation Policy Update 2022.pdf Hello Mr. Sanchez,
The issue of parking permits in your area that was being discussed two years ago has died. However, last August the City Council approved a new permit parking policy which established “Parking Permit Opportunity Areas” (PPOA’s) and your neighborhood is located in PPOA #3. What this means for you is that there are no application fees in the opportunity areas, no parking study and the level of approval by the property owners is now 55% instead of 75%. We simply need a letter of request from a resident. Your email will suffice as a letter of request, however, You may submit another request if you wish to add other streets in your neighborhood such as Palm Ave. and Wayfield Cir. For example. We will begin putting together a petition package for you and the other property owners along Watfield Street. You should receive them within the next two weeks.
I have attached a copy of the current Parking Permit Policy for you to examine page 3 describes the Permit Parking Opportunity Areas. , if you have any questions please feel free to call me.
Regards,
Dave Allenbach

Subject: Re: July 12 Council Agenda Item No. 7.1 - Permit Parking on Sections of Palm Ave, Park Ln, and Wayfield Cir
Hello,
It’s been about a year since the permit parking was discussed with no sight of a follow up. Parking as continued to get worse to the point where residents on N Wayfield cannot park on our own street. Vehicles have been known to stay parked in front of our houses for numerous of days and I have called multiple times to OPD to send out parking enforcement.
15 282
2 I am still at 404 N Wayfield which is in the middle of the street and cannot have guests over because they’ll have to figure out how far to park. It’s bad enough that majority of the vehicles on this street don’t belong to the home owners or renters, but we also have the deal with these vehicles who park right in the middle to prevent other vehicles from parking next to them. (See
image).
Some home owners are forced to leave out our trash cans just to prevent vehicles from taking up parking spots so we may utilize our own streets.
What can be done to revive this permit request and attempt to gather enough approval signatures?
Thank you,
Josh Sanchez

Dear Property Owner/Resident:
Thank you for your interest and input over the idea of permit parking on/in the vicinity of the above- referenced streets. A notification letter was sent out early last week indicating that this matter was 16 283
3 scheduled to be considered by City Council at its July 12, 2022, meeting. However, this is to inform you that a continuance is being requested for the corresponding item on tomorrow evening’s agenda (Item No. 7.1), and the continuance will be to a date uncertain. As a result, this matter is not expected to be considered tomorrow.
Concurrent with the proposed continuance, staff will be reviewing the city’s existing Neighborhood Permit Parking Program (NPPP) to determine whether any program/policy changes could be made in order to better reflect the City’s current needs. Any potential NPPP updates might then be used to complete the processing of this issue. We apologize for any inconvenience. Please feel free to contact Dave Allenbach, Transportation Analyst, at 714/744-5525 should you have any questions in the interim.
