DECLARING MAY AS WILDFIRE AWARENESS MONTH

IN THE CITY OF ORINDA
WHEREAS May is National Wildfire Awareness Month, which dedicates the entire month to prevention and preparedness; and
WHEREAS, according to the National Fire Protection Association (NFPA), more than 80% of wildfires are started by human-related activity, however, even natural-caused wildfires can be reduced in destructiveness through proactive measures. Preventable wildfires threaten lives, property, and precious natural resources; and WHEREAS, the hotter, drier weather of summer approaches, the risk of wildfire increases. There are some steps that can be taken to aid in the prevention of wildfires from starting and spreading. From fire-resisting building materials to following the safety protocols for handling fire when outdoors, or storing fuel, we can all take part in reducing wildfires; and
WHEREAS, wildfire season is year-round in many parts of the country now. What can you do to help support our firefighters and protect your family from wildland fires? The National Fire Protection Association (NFPA) recommends tips to help prevent fires from starting in our homes or community:
• Create and maintain five feet of non-combustible space around homes and commercial buildings.
• Reduce the accumulation of flammable materials and brush that can burn around your home by removing pine needles, dry leaves, or other flammable materials. • Protect your roof: trim branches that overhang your home and remove any leaves, needles, and sticks from your roof and gutters. • Move wood piles and small propane tanks 30 feet or more away from your (and your neighbor’s) home; and maintain a 10-foot boundary of bare mineral soil and a 20-foot clearance of hazard vegetation around them.
• To keep sparks and flames from getting underneath, screen under your porch and other open areas with wire mesh no larger than 1/16 inch. • Know your evacuation route.

D.2
Packet Pg. 7
Communication: Proclamation Declaring May as Wildfire Prevention Awareness Month (ITEMS FOR THE GOOD OF THE CITY) WHEREAS, be prepared in case you need to evacuate:
• Keep important documents in a fireproof safe, on a USB drive, or store password-protected documents online.
• Give yourself time and evacuate early if possible. If you can’t leave, designate a room that can be closed off from outside air in case air conditions become hazardous.
• Have a household emergency plan and out-of-area emergency contact. • When making plans, don’t forget the needs of pets.
• Make sure that you know more than one way out of your neighborhood. • Sign up to receive emergency alerts and notices for your community; and WHEREAS, Wildfires can develop and spread quickly, leaving little time to get somewhere safe. Know what to do to keep yourself, your family, and your pets safe, and take steps now to protect your future throughout the month of May and beyond.

NOW, THEREFORE BE IT RESOLVED, that I, Latika Malkani, Mayor of Orinda, do hereby proclaim May, 2025 as Wildfire Awareness Month in the City of Orinda.

DECLARING MAY 2025 AS JEWISH AMERICAN HERITAGE MONTH

IN THE CITY OF ORINDA
WHEREAS, from our Nation's earliest days, Jewish Americans have been an essential part of the American story, greatly contributing to the religious, cultural, political, economic, and intellectual advancement of all people even while in the face of discrimination and adversity, working tirelessly to realize their piece of the American dream with relentless spirit, and these remarkable achievements have enriched our country, stirred our conscience, and challenged us to extend the miracles of freedom and security; and
WHEREAS, as we celebrate the rich heritage of the Jewish American community, in the City of Orinda and the nation, we recognize that American Jews have worked tirelessly to strengthen the promise of religious freedom and civil rights in the United States by joining together with all faiths to reject ignorance and intolerance, teach empathy and compassion, and root out hatred wherever it exists, and through our understanding and study of the Holocaust, we know the human devastation that can come from systemic prejudice, and are compelled to “never forget”; and
WHEREAS, we are reminded that the vibrant culture and life of the Jewish people have experienced prejudice and discrimination and that Jewish communities continue to confront hostility and bigotry, including in America, and the City of Orinda shares the obligation to condemn and combat anti-Semitism and hatred wherever it exists; and WHEREAS, during Jewish American Heritage Month, the City of Orinda celebrates the hard-fought progress won through the struggle and sacrifice of Jewish Americans, and we rededicate ourselves to building a world where diversity is cherished, and faith is protected; and
WHEREAS, Jewish Americans have contributed immeasurably to the fabric of American history, culture, science, education, social justice, and to many aspects of our local Orinda Community.

NOW THEREFORE BE IT RESOLVED, that I, Latika Malkani, Mayor of Orinda, do hereby proclaim May 2025 as Jewish American Heritage Month in the City of Orinda.

WHEREAS, California and particularly the Bay Area are proud to be home to a large Asian American and Pacific Islander population that contributes greatly to the prosperity and enrichment of our Country; and
WHEREAS, Asian American and Pacific Islanders have distinguished themselves as leading researchers in science, medicine, and technology; innovative farmers and ranchers; distinguished lawyers, judges and government leaders; in the arts, literature, and sports; as war heroes who defended our country from fascism; and peacetime healthcare heroes currently on the front lines of the pandemic; and WHEREAS, Asian American and Pacific Islander communities in California have shared their rich culture and traditions while representing their communities through public service and advocacy; we must also acknowledge a darker aspect of the AAPI experience in America - structural discrimination, prejudice and injustice that most recently manifested itself in racist attacks on Asian Americans related to the COVID-19 pandemic; and
WHEREAS, diversity represents one of our greatest strengths, and by recognizing the contributions and accomplishments of Asian American and Pacific Islanders, Orinda and the Bay Area celebrate the importance of inclusion to building a brighter future for all of our citizens; and

G. PUBLIC HEARINGS
G.1. Introduction of Ordinance 25-03 Regarding Zoning Text Amendments Related to Chapter 17.21 of the Orinda Municipal Code-Tree Management
Recommendation:

Waive the full reading and introduce Version A or Version B of Ordinance 25-03 Amending Chapter 17.21 (Tree Management) of the Orinda Municipal Code.

Associate Planner Darren Hughes gave the staff report and overview of zoning text amendments relating to tree management.

Councilmember Hoxie asked if redwood trees were protected under the ordinance, and Mr. Hughes said redwood trees are protected when on a vacant parcel and is 6” or greater in diameter or, it is on a downtown property.

Councilmember Gee asked why staff does not have a recommendation on Version A or B. Mr. Hughes said staff left this open because their direction was originally to go with something more akin to Version B. He is recommending Version A because staff has worked on this version in the past.

City Manager Smith added that the Council had asked for Version B and while staff wanted to do more, there is still more to do. This is a start and more changes will come forward once staff has the time and capacity to do so.

Councilmember Riley referred to Findings of Intent and said under F, “from insurance companies” was struck, and she suggested striking similar wording under Exceptions No.

7. City Manager Smith stated this was feedback received when she was doing some briefings where they could be looking at the intent and the findings at a higher level and for the specificity be inside the detail of the ordinance. Staff was providing some option to consider if, in fact, the Council wanted those findings to remain more general and not so specific. Then, when getting into the meat of the ordinance, they could identify specifics in it.

Mayor Malkani referred to Exhibit A and said it states, “will create” and “will enable” and she asked what is recommended. Mr. Hughes stated “will create flexibility” was pulled from the previous iteration. “Create” was chosen.

Attachment: City Council Regular Meeting Minutes of April 7, 2025 (3591 : Minutes Approval) Orinda City Council Minutes Page 5 of 9 04.07.25
Mayor Malkani referred to the end of 17.21.3 and b; “The property instrument restrictions where activities are not exempted are” and she asked if those would be very specific.

She asked if the language was so broad that it would negate the exceptions that would allow tree removal for wildfire resilience purposes just because there is a conservation easement or open space. She wants to make sure the City is not inadvertently disallowing tree removal for wildfire protections.

City Attorney Wolff said the intent with this language is to signal there are potentially two separate processes; one would be the City’s regulations regarding tree preservation and, two would be completely separate consideration of whether there is some property instrument that applies. And, just because one has retained an exception under the City’s regulatory process does not mean one would have to go through that separate conservation easement process.

Mayor Malkani opened the Public Forum, and there were no speakers. She noted the Council received a late written correspondence from the public on this matter.

Vice Mayor Iverson complemented staff for the thoughtful work. She noted that the presentation numbering difference in the redlines and asked that this be confirmed in the final ordinance. She supports Version A, thinks the recitals should be very broad and not anything insurance-related but rather a high bar for people to use the exception.

She recommended in 17.21.1, deleting “will create flexibility” and when getting to “such mandates,” she would recommend stating, “enabling property owners to respond to legal and insurance mandates as well as to evolving state requirements.” Or she suggested deleting the three words and say “respond to evolving state and insurance requirements.” Mayor Malkani said her markup states, “facing tree management mandates including from insurance companies.”
Vice Mayor Iverson asked if they should delete item “f.” Council discussion ensued regarding removing or keeping “facing tree management mandates including from insurance companies.” There was Council consensus to remove it and consensus for Version A.

MOTION by Vice Mayor Iverson, and seconded by Councilmember Riley, to waive the full reading and introduce Version A of Ordinance 25-03 Amending Chapter 17.21 (Tree Management) of the Orinda Municipal Code, as amended to remove the Declaration of Intent 17.21.1.f and fix the typo on the numbering regarding the chart. Said motion carried by unanimous (5-0) vote.

Introduction of Ordinance 25-02 Regarding Several Minor Zoning Text Amendments Related to Orinda Municipal Code §17.2.3 (Definitions), Schedule 17.3.3 (RVL, RL and RM Districts – Land Use Regulations), §17.3.4 (Accessory Dwelling Units (ADUs)), §17.4.33 (Senior Housing Overlay District (SH-Overlay) Development Standards), Schedule

17.9.2 (PS District – Land Use Regulations), and §17.9.4 (Additional Development Regulations for Emergency Shelters)
Mayor Malkani stated this item is being continued to May 6, 2025. She then opened the Public Forum and there were no speakers.

H. POLICY MATTERS
H.1. Funding Request from Infrastructure Committee
Recommendation:

Provide direction on the funding request from the Infrastructure Committee.

City Manager Smith gave the staff report and background regarding the funding request from the Infrastructure Committee.

Councilmember Gee, Infrastructure Committee member, said she introduced forming this subcommittee last year over an issue that has been pervasive over the last 10 years and she did not expect it to go away. At this point, the City has 20% of residents that live on a private road and approximately the same percentage who are dealing with private drainage facilities. There is a fair amount of public works activities in the City that are expected to be privately maintained. Some are very well laid out with defined HOAs and it is a matter of complying with requirements and there are many other aspects where people live on private roads with no HOAs.

She then described strategies to keep the status quo, Measure R which goes to 2040, retirement of road bonds in 2036, declining road funds, solutions which will require additional monies and staff, the need to find out more and engage with private road homeowners for broader data.

Mayor Malkani thanked Councilmember Gee for her comprehensive summary and said the Council held lengthy discussions on the matter.

Councilmember Hoxie said all private roads are not the same and she asked what efforts would be made with the questionnaire to ensure the City is receiving responses from all of the different types of private roads.

City Manager Smith thanked City Engineer Siva Natarajan for doing the private road PCI assessment. The City now has addresses of each private road homeowner which totaled approximately 1,600 households. The intent is they would have a mass mailing to those addresses to make them aware that the City is going to be seeking input from them about living on a private road. To the point of having a contract, FM3 can match the voter address and voter roll to extract contact information for the household, and she introduced Mr. Metz from FM3.

F.1.b
Packet Pg. 33
Attachment: City Council Regular Meeting Minutes of April 7, 2025 (3591 : Minutes Approval) Orinda City Council Minutes Page 7 of 9 04.07.25
Dave Metz, FM3 Research, said if the City can provide them with the list of 1600 or so addresses for residences on private roads, can match that to a variety of databases, voter registration files, consumer databases, obtain email addresses, mobile phone numbers, and land line phone numbers associated with those addresses, work with staff to identify the proportion of those properties that fit into the various categories mentioned and make sure interviews track those proportions, and statistically weight the data when it comes back if there are some discrepancies to ensure they are not over-representing what a smaller sub-group of respondents might say.

Councilmember Riley asked and confirmed Mr. Metz can obtain street address of each respondent of the questionnaire, structure it to limit responses to only one per each physical address, and divide it any way the Council would feel helpful for deliberations. If they get down to an area with too few respondents and small sample size, it is hard to generalize what people in that area think.

Mayor Malkani opened the Public Forum, and there were no speakers.

Councilmember Gee added that those living on private roads have a good network already and have promised to encourage people to respond, so hopefully they will respond.

Vice Mayor Iverson said this is a preliminary step and has trust and confidence in the subcommittee, the City Manager, FM3, and voiced support of the questionnaire.

Mayor Malkani and Councilmembers voiced support and provided direction to the City Manager to proceed with the questionnaire and funding request.

H.2. Update on Plans for the City's 40th Anniversary
Recommendation:

Receive update and provide any direction to staff.

City Manager Smith introduced the item and said the subcommittee of two Councilmembers have worked to prepare for the City’s 40th anniversary celebrations as identified in the staff report. She did not believe it would cost more than $10,000 to execute on items.

Councilmember Riley said she and Councilmember Hoxie have met and they both described various efforts and activities planned for the celebration, stating things are coming together nicely.

Mayor Malkani opened the Public Forum, and there were no speakers.

Councilmembers discussed the numerous activities planned by the subcommittee for the celebration, spoke about civic pride, voiced support of the trolley, bringing in founders to honor, the ice cream social, Historical Society’s oral histories with founders, suggested the Chamber consider sponsorship of local businesses, and they all look forward to the celebration.

Rich Thompson, Chair of APPC, thanked the Council for their support over the years and for particularly agendizing the matter on World Art Day, proclaimed in 2019 by UNICEF.

He reported that the Committee strongly supports the recommendations for policy change. It will do a great deal of simplification for both the Parks and Recreation staff and the Committee itself. The other is raising of their value limit which is a request to allow them to react to special situations that come up rarely.

One of these situations is the circumstances surrounding Cal Shakes, which is in limbo until May 20th. They were asked if they could take all pieces of art there because EBMUD wanted them off the property.

Vice Mayor Iverson questioned succession planning for the APPC to ensure the committee has potential future members learning and growing into the role of a member.

Chair Thompson noted this as a concern as well and said one idea is to increase the number on the committee and bring in new people which would allow him and another member to transition out. Another is to keep the committee as seven members, noting he and Ted Urban could take an unofficial public role and attend meetings.

Mayor Malkani thanked Chair Thompson and the work of the APPC, agreed to set up a meeting with Councilmember Riley and Chair Thompson and another member to work on succession planning. She also asked and confirmed that the request for proposals are due on the 20th and the EBMUD Board should be meeting to discuss the Cal Shakes art in May or June.

Mayor Malkani opened the Public Forum, and there were no speakers.

H.3. Crossroads Park Orinda Sign (CIP project #4103)
Recommendation:

Review and provide direction on sign preferences for entryway monument at Crossroads Park.

City Manager Smith said the Council gave staff direction to see what they could do to come up with a less expensive version of the Crossroads Park sign and one that could be customized, which she described. She turned over the presentation to City Engineer Siva Natarajan.

City Engineer Siva Natarajan gave an overview of the request from the January 21st meeting on options for the Crossroads Park sign, said staff made modifications to the sign, and worked with Gates and Associates to develop the four options which are in the report and slides, which he described.

Councilmembers posed questions regarding the durability of the color and how long the sign would last, what would happen with the other reader board sign, uplighting, the length and size of the signs, fabrication, and the future move to electronic signs for the reader board.

Staff responded and described the signs’ durability, the modernization of the reader board in time, the inclusion of front-facing lighting for all four signs, the need to clean the sign, and the reduced length, which was reduced from 30 feet to 20 feet.

Mayor Malkani opened the Public Forum.

Ted Urban, Orinda, spoke of the lengthy history and involvement with sign review by the APPC, Parks and Recreation Commission, joint meetings, staff meetings, David Gates and Associates, and described previous sign approaches and artist input. The committee approved the second sign in the exhibits with three waves to give depth to the hills behind it. Members wanted lettering to reflect what was on the theater, and then the City discussed cost, where the OCS agreed to put up $350,000, and they were denied to get the sign completed, as the City wanted to get the park done first.

Mayor Malkani closed the Public Forum.

Deliberation and discussion ensued regarding the four signs, the mosaic sign as a piece of art, costs, the status of the park project and how it relates to the sign, proposed schedule for the park project to go out to bid with landscaping able to be installed by the fall, various comments regarding preferences of each sign with some Councilmembers favoring the first sign and/or one that states “Welcome to Orinda”, comments on the need for the length of the signs, whether lettering is recessed or engraved into concrete, concrete versus the pedestal design which was higher in cost, the need for Gates and Associates to include the sign designs with plantings, suggestion to look at the City of Lafayette’s sign, and rights to use the art in terms of displaying the mosaic sign, and the recommendation for an ad-hoc committee to be formed to work with staff on alternatives and provide a recommendation to the Council.

MOTION by Mayor Malkani, and seconded by Councilmember Gee, to create an Ad-Hoc Committee of Vice Mayor Iverson and Councilmember Riley. Said motion carried by unanimous (5-0) vote.

H.4. Orinda Community Park Master Plan Update
Recommendation:

Receive update regarding the Orinda Community Park Master Plan conceptual design and provide feedback.

City Manager Smith introduced and provided a background on the item.

Parks and Recreation Director Todd Trimble gave the staff report and PowerPoint presentation on the Orinda Community Park Master Plan update. He reported that this project was initiated many years ago, with a renovation plan to improve the restroom and rehabilitate the gazebo, and it expanded to the broader sense of the park.

He described the original concept as approved in 2018 which is similar to what it is now with additional amendments. The community had voiced concerns with moving the restroom and loss of the practice wall, and the Starlight Players indicated they needed their concession building and restroom closer to the amphitheater, and the Council decided to renovate the existing restroom. Staff is proposing to move the concession to the other side to help out the Starlight Players, close the breezeway, make a third restroom, and add a drinking fountain and filler to the wall on the outside with accessibility features, all of which could be done separately.

Mr. Trimble then described the need to replace the gazebo with a more modern, flexible effective performance venue like a bandshell or amphitheater; however, they would want to replace the picnic area which would happen in converting the older kids playground adjacent to the gazebo and an open space area with a few picnic tables. This would become a more flexible, larger, and reservable picnic area, given its popularity.

He then described the younger kids play area where they would move all age ranges onto that side of the park. Staff talked about including elements or making the entire park an all-abilities inclusive play area with amenities. The conceptual design also shows an exercise area, with the idea of getting people who walk the path and play tennis and pickleball in this area.

Lastly, Mr. Trimble asked for questions, noting staff is only proposing moving two play areas into one larger area, removing the gazebo and replacing it with a more modern performance area, creating a more usable modern reservable picnic areas, and renovating the restroom.

Councilmembers posed questions regarding the park adhering to ADA compliance, and staff discussion ensued regarding ADA triggers, areas affected, Callander Associates’ review of outstanding items, individual costs for each renovation totaling $5 million, maintenance needs, grant funds used for design, breakdown of each of the improvements, and undertaking work in a more efficient way once accessibility issue are solved.

Mayor Malkani opened the Public Forum, and there were no speakers.

Brief Council deliberation ensued regarding concerns about excessive costs to improve the park. City Manager Smith said one of the objectives of having a large plan is that the City can seek grant funding for combined components and asked if there is an interest in revisiting consolidation of playgrounds, ADA component costs, look at solutions for the restroom, and look at ways to bring down costs.

Councilmembers voiced the need to address the accessibility issues first, having the individual areas staged according to their priority, identifying available grant funds, community fundraising, and identifying actual needs, conditions, longevity, and costs to replace amenities with variations to choose from. Councilmembers referred to and briefly discussed expansion of pickleball courts, the City’s new registration program, and use and location of the courts to housing.

City Manager Smith stated staff will discuss the matter internally and agreed to return to the Council over the next several months.

H.5. Proposed Update to Capital Improvement Plan FY 2025-26 -FY 2029- 30 Recommendation:

Review, discuss, and provide comments on the proposed Update to the Capital Improvement Plan.

City Engineer Siva Natarajan gave the staff report, PowerPoint presentation, and overview of the CIP FY 2025-26 through FY 2029-30. He described the 5-Year CIP’s period, calendar for reviews through adoption, completed projects, projects underway, proposed changes to existing projects, proposed new projects with and without funding secured or identified, and considerations for prioritization of potential new projects, staff resources, fund balances, and scheduling/phasing of projects.

EXTEND MEETING
MOTION by Councilmember Riley, and seconded by Mayor Malkani, to extend the meeting at 9:52 p.m. to 10:15 p.m. Said motion carried by unanimous (5-0) vote.

Councilmembers posed questions and staff responded regarding:
• Whether the raised crosswalks and raised intersection at Glorietta and Martha geared to increase pedestrian safety is warranted, given there are crossing guards; • Whether a $500,000 investment in preliminary work should be done by the City on the Wilder to Downtown Path project and the likelihood of the City getting a grant to fund $21 million;
• Whether the Wilder to Downtown Path project connection would result in access to the downtown;
• Reference to #10 on the unfunded list on page 172—Highway 24 and Camino Pablo Interchange Landscape Improvements and confirmation that it does not have to do with the median change-out when getting off of Hwy 24 and heading to downtown where the loop and transmission tower are;
• Question and confirmation that the Mid-Block Crossing Study is a partnership with CCTA to look at the citywide major collectors and to provide a report identifying areas that could benefit or require a mid-block crossing and other improvements to existing crossings which has a matching requirement; • Confirmation that the median changes for evacuation access is active and is progressing;
• Follow-up needed on how the City is handling the contraflow lanes on Moraga Way;
• Confirmation that the $250,000 for Orinda Oaks Park landslide repairs through Cal OES and FEMA funding is at the last stage through Cal OES and close to receipt of funds.

Mayor Malkani opened the Public Forum, and there were no speakers.

Councilmembers thanked staff for the update and commented, as follows:
• Asked for a thoughtful process on whether the raised crosswalks/intersection are warranted given the use of crossing guards;
• Hoped the park and the sign projects could be completed; • Requested seeing the Moraga Way Bike Pedestrian Path prioritized that could be used as an EVA lane during evacuation;
• Questioned whether anyone would use the Wilder walkway; • Requested contraflow on Moraga Way;
• Voiced concern that Orinda Park items are EVA accessible; • Asked to put the location of pathway projects or crossings so the Council can identify the location and length of them;
• If there is something like a Community Center Master Plan, to make sure it is all on one page to see the spent, to spend, unfunded, etc.; F.1.d

• The Community Park Master Plan will need updates;
• The Brookwood Road is still an unsolved problem and is not budget-ready and needs to be addressed;
• The traffic calming reserve does not fund any projects and voiced concern with the fact that the City has to come up with a 25% match on speed limit, traffic, and midblock studies, and it felt like a solution looking for a problem, and whether the City would benefit from the County money;
• Agreed with Wilder versus Moraga Way feasibility money; • Under unfunded projects, it was noted that the dog park and pickleball are things that will stay unfunded until proven to be a need, and asked the City to stay on top of this;
• Creek improvements and Connect Orinda projects are out there, but are unfunded—keep an eye on when those can and should come forward in a more actionable way;
• Question as to whether or not the City should look at the $21 million connection to Wilder;
• Consideration to be more business-friendly and look at the little lane of Vashell Way as an opportunity, and whether it should be moved up as a priority over $21 million for Wilder;

EXTEND MEETING
MOTION by Mayor Malkani, and seconded by Vice Mayor Iverson, to extend the meeting at 10:14 p.m. to 10:30 p.m. Said motion carried by unanimous (5-0) vote. • To pull out and understand where they are on the drainage group A and B projects and questioned whether it was in the SSTOC report; (staff confirmed two groups were completed in the Group A projects which were split into three projects. For category B projects, two projects have been completed and the next two are planned as a joint project for the coming fiscal year); Regarding the Connect Orinda projects related to creating the revitalized areas and physical infrastructure that could help to do that, City Manager Smith said she will discuss this with staff and determine whether to actively incorporate this into the CIP for the 5- year period and determine funding sources.

She further confirmed there was not Council support to move forward with the Wilder to Downtown Plan efforts and staff will address this as part of the CIP, but noted that the path might need to stay in the CIP given it was addressed as part of the environmental document for the Wilder project. On the Moraga Way side, she encouraged putting this in the CIP, even if unfunded. The Council could look towards using Measure R funds for this and noted there is an eagerness on the Town of Moraga’s side to get going with this, but the City will need to determine funding sources.

Regarding the speed limit mid-block crossing study, City Manager Smith confirmed the staff will look at this given it is a holistic safety view of highlighting all hot spot areas within the City. It will be a plan to implement into the future and not truly a project where changes are made yet, and Mr. Natarajan said staff will revisit the scope.

H.6. License Plate Reader Cameras - Review of City Efforts and Request from Knickerbocker Lane Resident
Recommendation:

Receive the report and provide direction on the inclusion of additional LPR cameras in the upcoming budget process.

City Manager Smith suggested the Council take public testimony and the Council can move it to May 6th as long as Mr. Dreyer has an opportunity to address the Council.

Mayor Malkani opened the Public Forum.

Evan Dreyer thanked the Council for including the proposal on tonight’s agenda and spoke about the deployment of additional LPR cameras in the neighborhood, benefits of the Flock technology, software and interface, and voiced his support to add 15 more cameras. He voiced trust in the City to make the right decision on the placement of the 15 cameras as technology and threats change, and emphasized the reasons for the LPR cameras as outlined in his correspondence.

Councilmembers questioned funding after 2026, and Mr. Dreyer said it would cost $2,500/year each.

City Manager Smith agreed to agendize the item on the May 6, 2025 meeting agenda.

EXTEND MEETING
MOTION by Mayor Malkani, and seconded by Vice Mayor Iverson, to extend the meeting at 10:30 p.m. to 10:35 p.m. Said motion carried by unanimous (5-0) vote.

I. COUNCILMEMBER REPORTS – Mayor Malkani reported attending with Councilmember Gee the MOFD and City 2x2 Meeting yesterday where discussion was held regarding Zone Zero and the high fire severity maps. One take-away was the maps are not used by insurance companies and there seems to be confusion and real understanding of the methodology, and Zone Zero regulations are being developed and will not be finalized until January.

Councilmember Gee added that MOFD decided to add more funding into their home hardening materials grant and increased their budget to $500,000. They also re-budgeted for the two inspectors and are applying for grant funding for fire breaks.

Mayor Malkani said she and Councilmember Gee attended a meeting with Cal Cities today and several bills were discussed, which she will communicate in writing to the City Manager.

AGENDA TITLE: Quarterly Investment Report for Quarter Ending March 31, 2025 RECOMMENDATION:

Accept the Quarterly Investment Report for the period ending March 31, 2025.

BACKGROUND:

The City’s adopted Investment Policy provides that the City Treasurer will submit a report on the City's investments to the Council on a quarterly basis. The policy also specifies the information that is to be reported. This report covers the period from January 1, 2025, through March 31, 2025.

The City of Orinda uses Chandler Asset Management (Chandler), an independent fiduciary advisor, to manage a portion of its portfolio. The funds under management by Chandler are managed as a Reserve Portfolio. The City’s strategy is to retain sufficient cash flow to manage day-to-day operations and have Chandler focus on longer-term investment management. All investments, managed by Chandler, are held by the City in a safekeeping account through US Bank.

The City also uses the Local Agency Investment Fund (LAIF), which is a pooled investment managed by the State Treasurer. This investment provides relatively liquid access to balances, with a limit of 15 transactions per month. The cost value shown for the City’s LAIF investment represents the City’s contractual rights to its LAIF account and does not represent the value of the underlying portfolio securities.

In addition, on May 7, 2024, the City opened a Money Market account with Mechanics Bank which has a limit of five transactions per month to manage liquidity.

The Governmental Accounting Standards Board Statement 31 (GASB 31) requires the City to recognize the fair market value of its investments at the end of each fiscal year.

The market values are obtained from the State Controller’s office for Local Agency Investment Funds (LAIF), and from Chandler for the Reserve Portfolio. The difference between market value and cost as of June 30, 2025, will be reflected in the City’s financial statements for Fiscal Year 2024-25 as an adjustment to interest income for each of the City’s funds on a pro-rata basis as required by GASB 31. Market values change daily and the change in market value is considered temporary in nature, as the City mostly holds its investments until maturity, when they can be redeemed at par value.

DISCUSSION:

The quarterly report prepared by Chandler (Attachment A) for the quarter ending on F.2
Packet Pg. 49
March 31, 2025, provides the following information about the risk characteristics of the City's reserve portfolio:
1) Economic Update - provides a general economic background on key indicators that may impact the investment results. This information is useful in evaluating the performance of the portfolio as well as expected trends. (Attachment A pages 2-13).
2) Account Profile - describes the objectives and strategy used for the portfolio, compliance with the adopted Investment Policy, and key data related to the issuers. This section breaks down the reserve portfolio to provide key performance data. (Attachment A pages 14-27). A schedule on pages 16-18 displays whether holdings are in compliance with the California State Government Code and the City’s Investment policy.
3) Portfolio Holdings - provides details for each security held in the portfolio including purchase date, maturity date, market value, and rating. (Attachment A pages 28-35)
4) Transactions - show all purchases, sale of holdings and maturity for each month in the quarter. The Transaction Data included in the report displays all transactions including the settlement date. (Attachment A pages 36-38) The attached monthly Local Agency Investment Fund (LAIF) statements and Money Market account statements provide a listing of monthly transactions and balances.

Detailed investment information for LAIF can be found on the California State Treasurer's website (www.treasurer.ca.gov/pmia-laif/pmia).

All investment categories in the portfolio comply with the City’s Investment Policy and the Government Code in terms of allowed investments. The comparison information provided below is based on the market value of investments. The market value will vary both up and down from the original cost. For the most part, the City tends to hold most securities until maturity.

As shown below, the City had approximately $41.6 million (book value) invested as of March 31, 2025, and it was divided between investments in the State Treasurer Local Agency Investment Fund (LAIF), Money Market account, and funds managed by Chandler investments.

It is appropriate to keep in mind that the portfolio reflects all funds and is not limited to the General Fund. The City operates with a system of pooled cash which includes Restricted Funds, Debt Service Funds, Capital Project Funds, as well as the General Fund.

Portfolio Performance
The overall average purchase yield to maturity on the entire portfolio was 4.33%. The reported purchase yield was 3.72% one year ago (Quarter ending March 31, 2024).

These figures relate to the combined portfolio, including LAIF, Money Market account, and the Reserve funds managed by Chandler. The average purchase yield for the Reserve portfolio managed by Chandler is 4.12% (page 19), which is trending up from

3.95% in the prior quarter.

As broadly anticipated, the Federal Open Market Committee (FOMC) left the Federal Funds Rate unchanged at the range of 4.25 - 4.50% at the March meeting. Fed Chair Powell emphasized increased uncertainty around the economic outlook and the need for “greater clarity” before making changes to interest rate policy. He also acknowledged possible transitory inflationary impacts from tariffs. The following excerpt from page 13 of Attachment A shows the increase in US Treasury Notes since 2019, and especially with the shorter-term investments (dotted line is the two-year Treasury) which stayed almost flat between March 2020 and September 2021. Starting from September 2021, the two-year treasury yield has been rising. The two-year Treasury yield was 3.89% on March 31, 2025.

An important consideration for public funds is the safety of investments. The investments owned by the City are of a high quality as required by the Investment Policy.

As a reminder the City cannot invest in bonds with a maturity of more than five years.

The weighted average maturity of the City’s entire portfolio is 0.9 years compared to the benchmark maturity guiding the portfolio selection of 1.84 years. As of March 31, 2025, the Reserve portfolio managed by Chandler had a longer average maturity of 2.13 years (Page 19).

The City maintains liquidity using LAIF and the Money Market account combined with cash in its checking account to protect against the need to liquidate an investment before maturity.

Investment transactions were executed in accordance with the California State Government Code and the City’s Investment Policy. The City Treasurer believes the pooled cash and investments contain sufficient cash flow liquidity to meet the next six months of expected expenditure.

FISCAL IMPACT:

There is no fiscal impact on accepting this quarterly investment report.

Recent economic data suggest slower growth in 2025 and greater market uncertainty as the effects of fiscal policy unfold. Inflationary trends have subsided, but some components remain sticky, and core levels remain above the Fed’s target. The labor market reflects improved balance between supply and demand for workers. While job creation has been robust, continuing jobless claims remain elevated.

Given the economic outlook, we expect gradual normalization of monetary policy and a steepening yield curve.

As broadly anticipated, the Federal Open Market Committee (FOMC) left the Federal Funds Rate unchanged at the range of 4.25 - 4.50% at the March meeting. Fed Chair Powell emphasized increased uncertainty around the economic outlook and the need for “greater clarity” before making changes to interest rate policy. He also acknowledged possible transitory inflationary impacts from tariffs. The summary of economic projections (SEP) indicated lower GDP growth, higher inflation, and higher unemployment estimates than December projections, along with roughly two 25-basis point rate cuts this year. The FOMC also announced a slowdown in the pace of balance sheet reduction.

US Treasury yields declined, and the curve steepened in March. The 2-year Treasury yield declined 10 basis points to 3.89%, the 5-year Treasury fell 7 basis points to 3.95%, and the 10-year Treasury yield was unchanged 4.21%. The spread between the 2-year and 10-year Treasury yield points on the curve widened to +32 basis points at March month-end versus +22 basis points at February month-end. The spread between the 2-year Treasury and 10-year Treasury yield one year ago was -42 basis points. The spread between the 3-month and 10- year Treasury yield points on the curve was -9 basis points in March, unchanged from February.

The Conference Board’s Consumer Confidence Index tumbled 7.2 points in March to 92.9, a notable decrease from February. Consumers' assessment of the present situation fell, with business conditions viewed as "good" by only 17.7% and jobs considered "plentiful" by 33.6%. Their expectations for income, business, and labor market conditions dropped, with pessimism about future employment prospects falling to a 12-year low. While the consumer has been resilient, rising inflation expectations, concerns about trade policies and tariffs, and general economic and policy uncertainty could pose potential risks to future spending. 0

3 Month Average
The Conference Board’s Leading Economic Index (LEI) fell by 0.3% in February, following a 0.2% decline in January. The LEI decreased yearover-year by 3.1%. The monthly decline was primarily driven by consumer assessments of future business conditions becoming more pessimistic. The Chicago Fed National Activity Index (CFNAI) increased to +0.18 in February from a revised -0.08 in January, reflecting stronger readings across production-related indicators and sales, orders, and inventories. The three-month moving average rose to +0.15 in February from +0.07 in January, indicating expectations of continued above-trend economic growth.

Housing starts soared 11.2% to 1.5 million units in February as builders rebounded from adverse weather conditions in January. Total starts are down 2.9% compared to February 2024. Single family homes starts rose 11.4%, and multi-family starts increased 10.7%. The Freddie Mac 30-year fixed rate mortgage averaged approximately 6.8% in February. According to the Case-Shiller 20-City Home Price Index, housing prices rose 4.7% year-over-year in January, compared to 4.5% in December. While inventory constraints remain a challenge, the slight improvement in annual gains suggests gradual stabilization in the market. However, higher mortgage rates continue to weigh on affordability, limiting buyer demand and market activity.

The Institute for Supply Management (ISM) Manufacturing index dipped back into contraction at 49.0 in March from 50.3 in February. The survey reflected a decline in business activity, upward price pressures, and notably weaker employment. The ISM Services index declined to 50.8 in March from 53.5 in February as new orders, employment, and supplier deliveries all weakened. A reading over 50 indicates expansion, while a reading under 50 indicates contraction.

Federal Reserve Balance Sheet Assets

In $ millions
As broadly anticipated, the Federal Open Market Committee (FOMC) left the Federal Funds Rate unchanged at the range of 4.25 - 4.50% at the March meeting. Fed Chair Powell emphasized increased uncertainty around the economic outlook and the need for “greater clarity” before making changes to interest rate policy. He also acknowledged possible transitory inflationary impacts from tariffs. The summary of economic projections (SEP) indicated lower GDP growth, higher inflation, and higher unemployment estimates than December projections, along with roughly two 25-basis point rate cuts this year. The FOMC also announced a slowdown in the pace of balance sheet reduction. The monthly redemption cap on Treasuries will be reduced from $25 billion to $5 billion, while the cap on agencies and mortgage-backed securities will be maintained at $35 billion. Since the Fed began its Quantitative Tightening campaign in June 2022, securities holdings have declined by approximately $2.2 trillion to approximately $6.8 trillion.

IMPORTANT DISCLOSURES
City of Orinda Reserve Portfolio | Account #10296 | As of March 31, 2025 2025 Chandler Asset Management, Inc, An Independent Registered Investment Adviser.

Information contained herein is confidential. Prices are provided by ICE Data Services Inc (“IDS”), an independent pricing source. In the event IDS does not provide a price or if the price provided is not reflective of fair market value, Chandler will obtain pricing from an alternative approved third party pricing source in accordance with our written valuation policy and procedures. Our valuation procedures are also disclosed in Item 5 of our Form ADV Part 2A.

Performance results are presented gross-of-advisory fees and represent the client’s Total Return. The deduction of advisory fees lowers performance results. These results include the reinvestment of dividends and other earnings. Past performance may not be indicative of future results. Therefore, clients should not assume that future performance of any specific investment or investment strategy will be profitable or equal to past performance levels. All investment strategies have the potential for profit or loss. Economic factors, market conditions or changes in investment strategies, contributions or withdrawals may materially alter the performance and results of your portfolio.

Index returns assume reinvestment of all distributions. Historical performance results for investment indexes generally do not reflect the deduction of transaction and/or custodial charges or the deduction of an investment management fee, the incurrence of which would have the effect of decreasing historical performance results. It is not possible to invest directly in an index.

ICE permits use of the ICE indices and related data on an “asis” basis; ICE, its affiliates and their respective third party suppliers disclaim any and all warranties and representations, express and/or implied, including any warranties of merchantability or fitness for a particular purpose or use, including the indices, index data and any data included in, related to, or derived therefrom. Neither ICE data, its affiliates or their respective third party providers guarantee the quality, adequacy, accuracy, timeliness or completeness of the indices or the index data or any component thereof, and the indices and index data and all components thereof are provided on an “as is” basis and licensee’s use it at licensee’s own risk. ICE data, its affiliates and their respective third party do not sponsor, endorse, or recommend chandler asset management, or any of its products or services.

This report is provided for informational purposes only and should not be construed as a specific investment or legal advice. The information contained herein was obtained from sources believed to be reliable as of the date of publication, but may become outdated or superseded at any time without notice. Any opinions or views expressed are based on current market conditions and are subject to change. This report may contain forecasts and forward-looking statements which are inherently limited and should not be relied upon as indicator of future results. Past performance is not indicative of future results. This report is not intended to constitute an offer, solicitation, recommendation or advice regarding any securities or investment strategy and should not be regarded by recipients as a substitute for the exercise of their own judgment.

Fixed income investments are subject to interest, credit and market risk. Interest rate risk: the value of fixed income investments will decline as interest rates rise. Credit risk: the possibility that the borrower may not be able to repay interest and principal. Low rated bonds generally have to pay higher interest rates to attract investors willing to take on greater risk. Market risk: the bond market in general could decline due to economic conditions, especially during periods of rising interest rates.

Ratings information have been provided by Moody’s, S&P and Fitch through data feeds we believe to be reliable as of the date of this statement, however we cannot guarantee its accuracy.

Security level ratings for U.S. Agency issued mortgage-backed securities (“MBS”) reflect the issuer rating because the securities themselves are not rated. The issuing U.S. Agency guarantees the full and timely payment of both principal and interest and carries a AA+/Aaa/AAA by S&P, Moody’s and Fitch respectively. 39 F.2.a

AGENDA TITLE: Third Quarter Fiscal Year 2024-2025 (July 2024 - March 2025) General Fund Report of Budget to Actual
RECOMMENDATION:

Receive the report and file.

BACKGROUND:

This report provides information based on the results of the first nine months of the Fiscal Year (July 1, 2024 – March 31, 2025). It includes a detailed analysis of General Fund performance compared to the Budget. The good news is that the General Fund appears to be performing as anticipated.

Financial Planning Cycle
The City Council establishes a Budget on a two-year cycle. The Fiscal Year begins on July 1st and ends on June 30th. Fiscal Year 2024-25 is the second year of the current two-year cycle. Since the Budget is based on estimates and forecasts, a periodic review of budget to actual performance is appropriate to identify deviations in the financial plan.

General Fund
The General Fund is the primary operating fund for the City, and it also allows for the most discretionary use of funds. As the core support for City operations, the General Fund is the focus of the initial portion of this report (Including Attachments A – C).

The General Fund activity presented includes the Local 1 Cent Add-on Measure R Sales Tax revenues and expenditures used primarily for street and drainage projects and fire mitigation programs. For Annual Comprehensive Financial Reporting (ACFR) purposes, this fund is reported as part of the General Fund. However, the City tracks these activities in separate sub-fund (Fund 106) for fiscal management purposes. In the more detailed sections of the attachments to this report, Revenue and Expense associated with the Add-On Sales Tax are identified separately in Attachments A, B, and C.

High Level Revenue and Expenditure Summary – Attachment A The first attachment to the Report provides a high-level Summary of General Fund Revenue and Expenditures (See Attachment A). The revenues are broken down by major “types” and expenditures are shown by Department. As shown on Attachment A, as of March 31, 2025, in the General-Purpose portion of the General Fund (excludingMeasure R- Add-on Sales Tax), the City recorded collection of approximately 65.6% of F.3
Packet Pg. 110
the Budgeted Revenue and spent 61.6% of the Budgeted Expenditures with remaining budget of 34.4% in revenues and 38.4% in expenditures.

Revenue
The following table summarizes the total revenue collected in the first nine months of the current fiscal year (a detailed breakdown is shown in Attachment B). As shown below, revenue is roughly 4% higher than the previous year when looking at the total amount. The increase in the “General Purpose” component will be discussed in more detail later in the report. The decline in Measure R revenue is primarily a result of interest income not yet allocated to Fund 106.

Revenue Collected First 9 Months Fiscal Year (2024 vs 2025) The Chart on the following page compares the actual revenue collected in the first nine months based on type. As will be discussed in more detail, Taxes exceed the prior year’s comparison as does revenue generated by Parks and Recreation, but proportionately speaking, Rents & Interest is experiencing the largest positive budget variance. This is a result of unallocated interest revenue currently recorded in the General Fund (Fund 100). In general, approximately half of the total interest income gets allocated to other funds. The Revenue Detail Narrative section of Attachment B provides detailed analysis on significant variance items.

Expenditures
The following table summarizes the total General Fund expenditures in the first nine months (a detailed breakdown by type of expense is shown in Attachment C). As shown below the total expended from July 2024 – March 2025 was approximately $13.7 million. The "General Purpose" component was $90,000 less than the previous year due to the timing of payments associated with the Police Services contract. Total “AddOn” Sales Tax (Fund 106) expenditures are higher than the prior year amount by approximately $786,000 due primarily to the timing of Capital Project expenditures.

The chart on the following page compares the actual General Fund expenditures in the first nine months based on the type of expense. The Salary and Benefits and Contract Services remained at par with the previous year for the first nine months of the Fiscal Year while the increase in Special Expenses is the result of the election costs and rental of portable lighting used at Wilder field #4. The increase in Add-On Sales Tax expenditure was primarily the result of timing associated with Capital Project expenditures, specifically with the completion of the San Pablo Creek Culvert Repair Project #4187 earlier this fiscal year.

General Fund Expenditures by Type (July – March)
FY2023-24 Compared to FY2024-25
Budget To Actual Performance
The Budget serves as the Fiscal Plan for the City. Given that budgets are based on estimates and forecasts, it is very important to evaluate how the first nine months of actual activity compares to the planned Revenue and Expenditures. The following highlevel analysis will focus on the General-Purpose General Fund Budget to Actual.

Revenue Compared to Budget
Revenue collected as of March 31, 2025, was approximately 65.6% of the Budget. ($11.0 million received compared to $16.9 million budget). By comparison for the same period in the prior Fiscal Year, the City had collected 56.1% of the Fiscal Year 2023-24 actual revenue.

COMPARED TO BUDGET
F.3
Packet Pg. 113
While some revenue items are trailing forecasts, others are outperforming them.

Although Staff anticipates that actual revenues for Fiscal Year 2024-25 will ultimately exceed current budget estimates.

Expenditures Compared to Budget
General Purpose General Fund operating expenditures as of March 31, 2025, were approximately 62.9% of the Budget. ($10.7 million actual expense compared to the $16.9 million budget). By comparison for the same period in 2024, the City had recorded expenditures totaling 69% of the Fiscal Year 2023-24 actual expenditures.

The following chart displays expenditures as of March 31, 2025, by Department compared to the current Budget. Attachment D provides a detailed, line-item view of the Budget Compared to Actual Expense for each Department. The majority of Departments are at or above 75% of the budget, which would be expected three quarter way through the Fiscal Year. The most significant deviations are:
• Parks and Recreation (Remaining Budget 9%) is trending high due to: a) the continued increase in demand for recreation services and the associated costs of providing those services, primarily the additional cost of contract instructors; and b) costs associated with maintenance inadvertently recorded in this category because of the maintenance reorganization which occurred this year. Public Works’ expenditures are trending downward for the same reason. Finance staff are working to reclassify those types of items from Parks and Recreation to the Public Works budget.
• Police Services (49% Remaining Budget) and City Attorney Services (71.5% Remaining Budget) are provided under contract. There is a billing lag (services provided in December typically billed in February or later) which results in less than 75% of the budget spent as of March 31. In addition, City Attorney costs associated with the Housing Element lawsuit are not recorded in the General Fund (Fund 100). • Non-Departmental Services’ actual expenditure (Remaining Budget 9.2%) includes the semi-annual City Hall Debt Service payments.
• Planning services are also coming under budget (47% Remaining Budget) primarily because of the vacancy at the Principal Planner position which is now filled. • Actual Library expenditures (16% Remaining Budget) exceed the anticipated level largely because of utilities (water and sewer).

Revenue Detail (Including Comparison to Prior Year) Attachment B Attachment B provides a detailed breakdown of the revenue collected in the first six months of the year compared to the Budget. Given the uneven distribution throughout the year, it is helpful to examine the actual revenue collected in the first six months of the previous Fiscal Year. Included with the detailed financial information provided in Attachment B is additional narrative analysis of key areas of revenue deviation.

Expense Detail by Type (Including Comparison to Prior Year) Attachment C Attachment C provides a breakdown of all General Fund expenditures by “type.” Like the Revenue Detail, this schedule also provides a comparison to actual activity in the first nine months of the previous Fiscal Year. As shown in the Chart on the following page, 60% of the expenditures as of March 2025 were in the Salaries and Benefits and Contract Services categories, which is reflective of the service-oriented nature of local municipal government. Measure R accounts for 22% of the overall General Fund expenditures, with a majority (roughly 78%) of that being Capital Projects.

F.3
Packet Pg. 115
Comparison of Major Expenses by Type as of March 31, 2025 DISCUSSION:

As shown in Attachment A, the current General Fund (Fund 100 only) Budget projections show Expenditures and net transfers are in excess of Revenues by $155,705. These Expenditures in excess of Revenue reflect decisions made by City Council in June of 2023 to utilize accumulated General Fund balances by design, to temporarily increase engineering resources to get more capital projects done.

NEXT STEPS:

Staff is currently in the process of developing the City’s Biennial Operating Budget for Fiscal Years 2025-26 and 2026-27, including a preliminary budget review on tonight’s agenda. Following tonight’s discussion and feedback, Staff will presented the final Budget for City Council’s consideration in June 2025.

FISCAL IMPACT:

A detailed analysis of the City’s key operating funds has been provided, the General Fund is functioning as expected and is in good shape financially. All other Funds have been reviewed and examined and appear to be operating in a manner consistent with their currently adopted budgets. Minor adjustments to appropriations in Funds other than the General Fund for Fiscal Year 2024-25 may be recommended in relation to the Capital Improvement Plan Update.

General Fund Detailed Revenue
Fiscal Year 2024-2025 As of March 31, 2025
Revenue Detail (Including Comparison to Prior Year) Attachment B This report provides a narrative description of the key variances in General Fund Revenue as of March 31, 2025. The preceding tables provided a detailed line-item breakdown of the revenue collected in the first nine months of the year compared to the Budget. This section adds an additional explanation of key variances in each category of revenue.

Taxes: Amounts collected are slightly higher than in the previous Fiscal Year. Compared to the Budget the current year is running slightly behind.

Property Tax: With Property Tax, large portions of the taxes are collected in December and April, which results in an uneven pattern of when revenue is received. Property Tax is more than in the previous fiscal year. This reflects the increased assessed values used by the County Tax Collector. Property Tax in lieu of VLF is budgeted less than the actual amount received in the prior fiscal year, and it is anticipated to exceed the budget estimate. Based on the first nine months, the Documentary Transfer Tax remains on track with the Budget. The base automatic annual adjustment for Property Tax is 2 percent each year for properties without a change in ownership or new construction. At this time no new residential construction is anticipated which would substantially raise the number of residences and assessed value on the base property tax.

Sales Tax: General Purpose sales tax for the first 9 months is lower than the same period of the previous year. Sales Tax collection is projected to be slightly under Budget.

The current projection is based on one quarter of actual sales (July – September) and estimates moving forward. The City uses the firm of HdL Companies to assist with sales tax monitoring. A significant portion of the projected year-over-year decreases is related to a reduction in price of crude oil and a decrease in the portion of the tax allocated through the County pool. Legislation enacted in recent years to collect taxes on out-ofstate online purchases has benefited amounts allotted through the pool; nevertheless, online merchants are altering their reporting tactics, as evidenced by the placement and reporting of fulfillment centers..

Add-On Sales Tax 1 Cent (Fund #106):

Revenue generated from the 1 Cent Add-on Sales Tax is on track to meet original projections. Because of differences in how the Local Add-On Sales Tax is collected and an anticipated softening of the retail economy, Measure R sales tax revenue has a negative variance of $83,122 compared to the previous year.

Other Taxes (Franchises Taxes and Transient Occupancy Tax): This category is tracking very similar to last year and the largest component is Franchise Fees (Gas, Electric, Cable, Garbage). There is a lag in the collection timing for Franchise Taxes (Gas, Electric, Cable, Garbage), since Gas and Electric franchise fees are paid annually in April. Because of the competition from streaming services, cable franchise taxes are falling, resulting in lower franchise taxes than those collected during the same period last year.

General Fund Detailed Revenue
Fiscal Year 2024-2025 As of March 31, 2025
Transient Occupancy Tax (TOT) is collected from short-term rentals. In Fiscal Year 2025-26 the amount collected is slightly higher than the amount collected in the previous year.

Rents and Interest: The budget variance in the Interest Revenue are due to the fact that interest income has not been allocated from the General Fund to other funds as of March 31st.

In general, approximately half of the interest income received gets allocated to other funds.

Even after adjusting for the interest income allocation, this category of revenue exceeds expectations with the amount budgeted in the General Fund which is reflective of the current interest rate environment. This category bears monitoring, and the timing of any interest rate changes has the potential to impact on this revenue when the investments are marked to market value at the end of the year, creating either a gain or loss which is required to be reported even though the City’s policy is to hold investments to maturity (non-speculative).

Service Fees: Total Service Fee are slightly lower in the current fiscal year compared to the same period of the prior fiscal year.

Parks & Recreation Fees: It appears that there is a continued healthy demand for recreation services post-COVID as Recreation Fees and Rentals continue to grow beyond pre-COVID levels. Sport Facility Rentals and Wagner Gym Rentals are higher than those in the previous year while Sports Programs and Donations are tracking behind last year’s collection.

Police Fees and Fines: Apart from the Impound Recovery Fees all other Police Fees are tracking behind the collection in the previous year. Overall, this revenue budget appears to have stabilized after several years of reductions. The current year’s reductions are primarily due to reduced parking demand, resulting in less parking fines.

Public Works Fees: The Public Works Fees collection as of March 31, 2025, is trailing behind the collection in the same period in prior year, but not by a significant amount.

Planning and Business Registration Fees: Planning Fees are ahead of fees collected in the previous year while Building Inspection and Construction Debris Recycling Fees are trailing behind the previous year. The Business Registration Surcharge (State) in FY 2024-25 is accounted for in a special revenue fund instead of the General Fund due to compliance requirement.

Revenue from Other Agencies: The Local Grant Revenue was received from the Orinda Park & Recreation Foundation was not budgeted, but the largest variance is for Project Reimbursements which are only 20% of budget. It is important to note that the corresponding expenses for which the City anticipated reimbursement have not occurred either, neutralizing the financial impact of this shortfall.

AGENDA TITLE: Temporary Full Road Closure of Portions of Glorietta Boulevard for EBMUD Pipeline Replacement Project
RECOMMENDATION:

Adopt Resolution 25-25 (Traffic Order #237) Authorizing the Temporary Full Road Closure of Portions of Glorietta Boulevard between Parkway Court and Overhill Road BACKGROUND:

EBMUD has an upcoming planned Pipeline Replacement Project in the Glorietta neighborhood. The project is anticipated to start on June 2, 2025, and be completed by August 8, 2025. The Project includes replacing 4,865 linear feet of water main along Glorietta Blvd. starting from near the Parkway Ct. intersection and ending at Robert Rd. intersection. Improvements are also planned for Meadow Park Ct. starting at Glorietta Blvd intersection and ending at the cul-de-sac. Attachment A includes additional details regarding limits of work and the proposed traffic control plan.

The primary impact to vehicular traffic from the pipeline replacement project is the trenching work to install the new water main and related traffic control. Due to the proximity of the work area to Glorietta Elementary School, construction work is planned to start the week after school closes for summer.

DISCUSSION:

Glorietta Blvd. is a major collector and provides primary access to Glorietta Elementary school. Due to this reason, Glorietta Blvd. has restricted work hours between 9:00 a.m. and 3:30 p.m. on weekdays and 8:00 a.m. to 5:30 p.m. on weekends (requires Public Works approval). Even with restricted work hours, a project of this magnitude is expected to cause significant traffic impacts during school days.

To alleviate traffic impacts, EBMUD has planned all major construction activities to begin the week of June 2, 2025, after schools close for summer. In addition, EBMUD plans to work on an accelerated construction schedule to complete all construction activities prior to start of school on August 12, 2025.

The project includes three major segments of construction, (i) On Glorietta Blvd. from Parkway Ct. to Overhill Road, (ii) on Glorietta Blvd between Overhill Rd, and Roberts Rd., (iii) On Meadow Park Ct. between Glorietta Blvd. and cul-de-sac. The proposed traffic control involves a full road closure on Glorietta Blvd. with detour, and partial lane closure for the rest of the project in order to complete construction in a timely manner.

F.4
Packet Pg. 128
EBMUD is requesting a temporary, full road closure of the segment of Glorietta Blvd. between Parkway Court and Overhill Road. Martha Road, Hillcrest Drive, and Daryl Drive will provide alternate routes to detour traffic during the road closure.

The road closure will be limited to Monday through Friday, between the hours of 7:00 a.m. and 4:30 p.m. Approval is requested for a duration of up to five (5) nonconsecutive weeks between June 2, 2025, and July 31, 2025.

The remainder of the project work will be performed using temporary lane closure with flaggers and will not require a full road closure.

EBMUD will send out advance notification letters (Attachment B) to all residents in the project vicinity informing them about the upcoming project and the proposed road closure. Additional signage will also be put in place to inform drivers of the upcoming road closure.

The contractor will maintain vehicular access to residents within the closure limits and will have necessary trench plates and equipment on site to provide access to emergency vehicles, mail delivery and trash pickup.

When there is a proposed full road closure of a public road, a traffic order/resolution must be approved by the City Council before City staff issues a permit.

NEXT STEPS:

Upon the City Council approval of Resolution 25-25 (Attachment C), Staff will issue an encroachment permit for said project. Staff will coordinate with EBMUD, and their construction team, to ensure adherence to traffic control plans and provide inspection oversight during the project.

FISCAL IMPACT:

As part of the issuance of the encroachment permit, the City will collect a fee for inspection of construction activities.

AGENDA TITLE: Approval of Fiscal Year 2025-26 SB1 Road Repair and Accountability Act Project List
RECOMMENDATION:

Adopt Resolution 26-25 Approval of Fiscal Year 2025-26 Project List as Required by the Road Repair and Accountability Act of 2017
BACKGROUND:

On April 28, 2017, the Governor Signed Senate Bill (SB) 1, which is known as the Road Repair and Accountability Act of 2017 (RMRA). This legislation increased the per gallon fuel exercise taxes ($0.12 per gallon), as well as increases diesel fuel sales taxes and vehicle registration fees. The use of the new funds also comes with additional reporting requirements and a focus on using the new funds for basic road maintenance, rehabilitation, and critical safety projects on the local streets and roads system.

These funds require separate action by the City identifying the specific use of the funds.

For reference, in the current Fiscal Year 2024-25, the City designated the use of RMRA funds towards a portion of the 2024 Annual Pavement Rehabilitation Project costs.

The State requires adoption of a Resolution and submittal of the Fiscal Year 2025-26 Project List by July 1, 2025. The exact amounts of Gas Taxes received by the City fluctuate based on a variety of factors. The City estimates $512,168 in RMRA funding in Fiscal Year 2025-26 from State Gas Tax.

DISCUSSION:

To simplify the reporting and administration requirements of RMRA, the proposed Project List consists of one project, the “2025 Annual Pavement Rehabilitation – Project 4183”. This project includes several roadway segments.

Project Description: Rehabilitate existing pavement.

Locations: Refer to attached list of streets (Attachment B) Scheduled Completion: December 31, 2026
Estimated Useful Life: 15 Years
Due to the delay in constructing the 2024 Annual paving project, which will be constructed in summer 2025, the 2025 Annual Pavement Rehabilitation Project will be F.5
Packet Pg. 134
merged into the 2026 project with construction award in FY 2025-26 and construction in summer 2026.

NEXT STEPS:

Staff will submit Resolution No. 26-25 to the State Transportation Commission. When design is complete and bids are received for construction, Staff will submit another request to the City Council for approval of design and award of construction contract.

FISCAL IMPACT:

The total cost of the 2025 Annual Paving project exceeds the anticipated amount of RMRA funds. The Project will use several funding sources including General Gas Tax, Gas Tax – RMRA, Gas Tax - SB1 Local Partnership Program (LPP), Measure R, and Road Maintenance Fee (Solid Waste Provider) funds as shown in the attached CIP detail page.

WHEREAS, this is the ninth year in which the City is receiving SB 1 funding and will enable the City to continue essential road maintenance and rehabilitation projects, safety improvements, repairing and replacing aging bridges, and increasing access and mobility options for the traveling public that would not have otherwise been possible without SB 1; and WHEREAS, the City has undergone a robust public process to ensure public input into our community’s transportation priorities/the project list; and WHEREAS, the City used a Pavement Management System to develop the SB 1 project list to ensure revenues are being used on the most high-priority and cost-effective projects that also meet the communities priorities for transportation investment; and WHEREAS, the funding from SB 1 will help the City maintain and rehabilitate 44 roads throughout the City this year and more of similar projects into the future; and WHEREAS, the 2018 California Statewide Local Streets and Roads Needs Assessment found that the City’s streets and roads are in “at-risk” condition and this revenue will help us increase the overall quality of our road system and over the next decade will bring our streets and roads into a “good” condition; and
WHEREAS, the SB 1 project list and overall investment in our local streets and roads infrastructure with a focus on basic maintenance and safety, investing in complete streets infrastructure, and using cutting-edge technology, materials and practices, will have significant positive co-benefits statewide.

Description
This Project/program has been added to reflect the intended future use of Orinda Supplemental Sales Tax, Gas Tax, CCTA Return to Source, CCTA 28c and Road Maintenance Fees (Solid Waste Provider) for pavement maintenance related projects. Note that the City may also elect to use these funds for other transportation related projects such as bridge, roadway drainage, slope stabilization, bike, pedestrian, etc. projects. A $250,000 budget allowance is included for potential stormwater treatment requirements/green infrastructure. This is a place holder. Future pavement maintenance streets will be selected in accordance with the City's Street Rehabilitation Policy. Assumes RMRA $500,000 + LPP $200,000= $700,000 min. Gas Tax funding required in FY 25/26. Due to the delay in the 2024 Annual Paving project, which will be constructed in summer 2025, the subject Project (2025 Annual Paving) will be merged into the 2026 project with construction award in FY 25/26 and construction in summer 2026. Design work will be done "in house" by staff, with limited as needed design expenditures (GL 7125). This project includes $300,000 rehabilitation of a problem section of Moraga Way, northbound, from the city limits (at Moraga) to Ivy Dr., based on recommendations of a study performed by a pavement engineering firm.

Justification
Roadway pavement rehabilitation work is necessary to prevent the pavement condition to fall into the "Poor" condition rating. Research has shown it would cost more to repair a roadway that deteriorated to the point where major rehabilitation or reconstruction is necessary.
