A speaker referred to Item F.6 regarding Southwood Valley and questioned what is a significant expenditure, asked why the item was placed on the Consent Calendar without any public comment, and asked how $550,000 can be used on a project that did not come to fruition 7-8 years ago.

Owen Murphy thanked the Council, Senator Tim Grayson, and others for helping protect Orinda from SB 79, calling it a major success. Referring to Item F.6, he agreed with earlier comments and described the situation as a “geological nightmare.” He noted the missed opportunity for a Montessori School at the Phair’s building site, suggested exploring new uses for the Caltrans-owned 25% of the BART lot instead of parking, and urged the City to incentivize Caltrans to address the contaminated property near the deteriorating Shakespeare Theater.

Judy Even of Tahos Road raised concerns about the Southwood Valley project, noting the land’s instability and a history of slides affecting homes near Tahos and Bates. She highlighted potential impacts on resident wildlife, emergency evacuation, and access if homes are built.

Planning Director Lashun Cross explained that the application submitted on July 8, 2025 is complex and involves three contract components: 1) An EIR for CEQA compliance ($363,000), 2) An environmental constraints study for General Plan compliance ($69,000), and 3) Additional planning services to assist with processing entitlements ($116,900). She voiced a need for more capacity and expertise due to the application’s complexity, noted she met with Chris Kniel who provided community background, and said staff determined the application is currently incomplete and is requesting additional information and services.

City Manager Smith added that the City is contracting for services which will be tracked by the City and reimbursed by the applicant. Councilmembers confirmed there is an initial base deposit through a reimbursement agreement and on-going retention of funds so as not to deplete them. She noted there was a question of who Southwood Valley Estates, LLC is, noting a private developer has initiated an application which the City is obligated to respond to, and Director Lashun stated Mr. Michael Lew is present and can speak to this.

Michael Lew, managing member of Southwood Valley Estates, LLC, explained that the LLC has owned the 43-acre property since 2004 and previously pursued a General Plan Amendment in 2010, including an EIR costing over $400,000, but the project did not meet their goals. In 2025, they submitted a new application using the SB 330 density bonus and have until mid-December to provide missing items, which they expect to complete within a month.

He addressed the City’s concerns by noting their good track record with prior General Plan Amendments and EIR payments, with approximately $30,000 remaining and the ability to provide additional funds if needed.

Councilmember Hoxie asked Ms. Cross to explain the development process.

Director Lashun Cross outlined the initial and ongoing steps, including review, studies, CEQA compliance, tracking, fund management, technical work, and public hearings.

She noted the City is contracting with Kimley-Horn and Associates to ensure transparency and independence. The project seeks 30 units under the State density bonus law compared to 18 units allowed by the General Plan. Engineering for drainage and landslide concerns will be addressed in the EIR. She confirmed that without approval of the contract, staff would lack the support to review studies or complete the General Plan–required analyses.

Mayor Malkani opened the Public Forum.

Nick Waranoff warned the Council of financial and legal risks with the project, including potential City liability if the developer fails to pay the environmental consultant and existing liens on the property. He recommended a three-party agreement to protect the City and emphasized structuring the density bonus agreement to safeguard against waived design standards.

Carl Even noted that the Southwood development has resurfaced roughly every 10 years but was repeatedly rejected for safety concerns. He questioned whether his shrubs or the proposed 30-home development, which would add over 100 people to an already crowded and hazardous street, poses the greater danger.

Chris Kniel stated that Southwood Valley is largely designated as riparian habitat, with only 10 of 43 acres suitable for development. He argued that the steep, bowl-shaped terrain makes the proposed 30-unit plan unrealistic, noting prior proposals needed massive retaining walls for far fewer units. Realistically, only 3–5 units could be safely built due to risks like flooding, landslides, erosion, and limited fire access.

Mayor Malkani asked about riparian habitat concerns.

Mr. Kniel cited issues with 15-foot concrete walls, steep slopes, and the parcel’s history.

He emphasized that the Council should require the bidder to revise the proposal and ensure all relevant Planning Department comments and neighborhood input are provided to the bidder.

Michael Lew said the reimbursement agreement has a threshold that he must have certain deposits once it dips below 50% so the City is never in a situation where it will get stuck with the bill, and this is part of the agreement.

Minta, a Tahos resident, shared that her house is sliding and required foundation repairs. She questioned how 30 homes could be built on the parcel, urged the Council to consider current residents, asked about potential compensation, and echoed Chris Kniel’s concerns, noting a neighboring home has already been lost.

Mayor Malkani closed the Public Forum.

Councilmembers questioned the process of choosing Kimley-Horn and Associates for the contract, whether there is an open bidding process for consultant services, and Director Lashun provided an explanation regarding reaching out to another consultant firm and choosing Kimley-Horn because of their expertise.

Mayor Malkani asked and confirmed with Director Lashun that no recommendation has been formed to date until the application is deemed complete, and that concerns about evacuation, geologic instability and other related issues will be examined and addressed.

Councilmembers then questioned and confirmed it is customary for a reimbursement agreement to be used, that staff will ensure money is well spent, will send invoices, collect funds and update accounts, noted the application will be processed fairly, confirmed that Councilmembers read all correspondence submitted by speakers, and Councilmembers voiced support of staff’s recommendation.

Said motion carried by unanimous (4-0) vote.

G. PUBLIC HEARING – None.

BREAK
Mayor Malkani called for a brief recess at 8:15 p.m. and, thereafter, reconvened the regular meeting.

H. POLICY MATTERS
H.1. Citywide Objective Design Standards (ODS) Study Session, an Implementing Action of the Housing Element
Recommendation:

Receive a presentation and facilitated discussion of the Citywide Objective Design Standards (ODS) and provide additional discussion and direction on the design topics, specific design standards, and architectural standards.

Principal Planner Christine Thomson introduced staff and consultant Tony Perez, then presented on Citywide Objective Design Standards (ODS), explaining they apply to qualifying multi-unit projects, aim to make requirements predictable, minimize development constraints, and ensure compliance with affordability, zoning, and General Plan rules. She provided background on SB 35 and SB 330, eligibility criteria, and the goal to adopt ODS by Spring 2026. Tony Perez presented on form-based codes and objective standards, highlighting regulation of public realm elements—setbacks, height, stories, footprints, parking, and permitted uses—through clear design standards rather than discretionary review.

Mr. Perez emphasized that form-based codes shape development predictably by defining building size, placement, and street relationships, advising that architectural style should only be regulated if standards are well-researched. He outlined five approaches for structuring standards: massing/articulation, building types, architectural elements, architectural style, and style by location, stressing a balance between regulation and design flexibility.

Ms. Thomson noted staff’s goals: assessing design topics, aligning standards with Orinda’s character, and considering inclusion of architectural style standards. She added that while prior discussions with the Planning Commission were open-ended, more direct discussions with the Council could occur once members feel sufficiently informed.

F.1.a
Packet Pg. 11
Attachment: City Council Minutes of October 21, 2025 (3745 : Minutes Approval) Orinda City Council Minutes Page 7 of 13 10.21.25
Councilmembers noted Orinda’s mix of architectural styles, expressed interest in greater visual cohesion and a unified aesthetic, confirmed that ODS applies to singlefamily homes under certain conditions, and confirmed that most SB 9 “by right” projects do not go through design review and that ADUs have been removed from discretionary review.

Ms. Thomson explained that the draft ODS focuses on building typologies, massing, and façade modulation rather than specific architectural styles, applying to small subdivisions, multi-unit projects, and SB 9 developments. Single-family homes or “by right” subdivisions follow less discretionary rules.

City Attorney Wolff clarified that streamlined ADUs cannot have additional design requirements, but SB 9 can apply to single-family homes, making ODS relevant. Ms.

Thomson emphasized that application of ODS is case-dependent, determining whether a project goes through design review, ODS, or ministerial review.

Mayor Malkani questioned the necessity of strict architectural style standards and how safety codes affect aesthetics. Ms. Thomson explained that the Planning Commission favors variety and articulation, citing developments like Monte Verde and Orinda Woods. The draft ODS includes standards for site, building, subdivision, massing, and landscaping, balancing regulation with flexibility. Community input highlighted fire safety, design diversity, and preserving Orinda’s character, while fencing color was a minor technical concern. The City is still evaluating whether specifying architectural styles would enhance the ODS.

Councilmember Gee asked about landscaping in the ODS. Ms. Thomson explained that key considerations include site layout, building placement relative to access and the public realm, and keeping parking hidden (preferably in the back). Continuous green space and guidance from the Wilder handbook were also incorporated into the Site Standards section.

Vice Mayor Iverson cited Orinda’s challenging topography, noting Wilder was able to control design styles given its topography, but with hard to build lots, single-family homes are difficult to build upon. She now realizes that they are not just talking about SB 4 with condos and townhomes but also any lot in any part of town.

Mayor Malkani asked if ODSs could incorporate fire science and if other cities are doing so. Mr. Perez responded that all projects must comply with fire and building codes, and noted that single-family homes would generally only be subject to ODSs if an SB 9 subdivision adds an additional unit, clarifying that applicants are not obligated to build on the second lot.

Attachment: City Council Minutes of October 21, 2025 (3745 : Minutes Approval) Orinda City Council Minutes Page 8 of 13 10.21.25
City Attorney confirmed that applicants can develop on the lot they have with up to two single-family homes or an ADU and a home under SB 9. Ms. Thomson said if the City does not have ODS the City cannot deny a person’s application. Mr. Perez agreed and noted some cities have written in their standards that if you do not meet ODS, you have chosen to go into discretionary review by default but this has not been tested by the courts.

Vice Mayor Iverson raised concerns about using primarily hardscape materials like brick and stucco due to fire risk. Ms. Thomson noted flexibility is possible through staffupdated material lists. Vice Mayor Iverson also cited Berkeley examples using lot depth to reduce visible bulk, and Mr. Perez explained this relates to “house scale,” where building proportions, height, and massing maintain a residential scale even in larger multi-unit projects.

Councilmembers then posed questioned and held discussion with Mr. Perez and Ms.

Thomson about how to prevent drastically different styles, downtown buildings which may completely changing the character of Orinda, massing and articulation to break down boxiness and adding articulation layers and features like porches or entrances, Hercules’s large mixed-use building which is continuous but facades break up to distinguish it as separate buildings called “modules,” and the use of density bonus law by developers.

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

Councilmembers and staff discussion ensued regarding SB 9 and the importance of having ODS for new single-family home projects, and City Manager Smith asked for five areas in the staff report which staff is requesting feedback on, as follows:
• Features from existing projects and what the Council considers high quality; • The most important design standards that should apply to multi-family units and multi-family residential developments;
• Whether design standards should be included;
• What is least important: and
• Are there any topics or standards that are missing.

Question 1: Ms. Thomson said this is similar to what the PC tackled and the Council now knows it is now applying to multi-family, multi-unit residential developments where there are some examples already built in Orinda. She asked what the Council likes and does not like, and what should the ODSs emphasize?
Mayor Malkani emphasized balancing form-based and use-based planning to support diverse housing types while maintaining aesthetic cohesion, avoiding mismatched styles like in the Oakland Hills. Ms. Thomson explained that Orinda’s ODS focus on the “look and feel” of developments, with the development envelope still governed by zoning.

F.1.a
Packet Pg. 13
Attachment: City Council Minutes of October 21, 2025 (3745 : Minutes Approval) Orinda City Council Minutes Page 9 of 13 10.21.25
Vice Mayor Iverson highlighted that the City’s current multi-family housing doesn’t reflect future goals and expressed support for townhome-style, semi-detached communities, which accommodate families and are not rent-controlled.

Mayor Malkani emphasized the value of courtyards and open spaces that foster community, praising developments like Orinda Woods, Berkeley, Rockridge, and Carmel for aesthetic cohesion and appealing density, while criticizing the mismatched architectural styles seen in Oakland Hills’ Broadway Terrace.

Councilmember Gee praised Orinda Woods and Monte Verde for their scale, articulation, and harmony with the natural landscape, noting that Orinda Grove is generally fitting except for some color choices. She acknowledged that much of Orinda’s older single-family housing is a 1950s mix but has gained charm over time.

Vice Mayor Iverson noted that the guidebook calls this “Orinda eclectic” and it is a defined style.

Councilmember Hoxie favored attractive, well-scaled, and thoughtfully angled designs like the Mediterranean example and recent Lafayette development. She supports timeless, elegant architecture over trendy or dated styles, values cohesive design, and emphasized maintaining Orinda’s charm and inviting downtown character while allowing for diverse, evolving single-family homes.

Ms. Thomson said this conversation has been very helpful because not only discussing the viewpoints on the three developments but also bringing in Rockridge and Lafayette which helps staff and the consultant team to think about what sort of things should be shown in those elements.

Question 2: Regarding question #2, given Title 17 zoning contains development standards, the development envelope will still apply and the question was, what design standards, what “look and feel” components are most important to pair with the zoning? It can be a section or an individual design standard.

Vice Mayor Iverson stressed that new developments should respect surrounding neighborhood character, avoid cheap or cookie-cutter designs, and use authentic styles with quality materials, whether blending into single-family areas or fitting multi-family sites.

Mayor Malkani emphasized that new developments should harmonize in style and massing, allowing for some variation between areas—like in Santa Barbara—without creating excessive stylistic differences within a single neighborhood.

Councilmember Gee stressed that ODS should preserve Orinda’s neighborhood patterns, with street-facing entrances and rear parking. Ms. Thomson confirmed the draft already supports these goals through site design standards, keeping the project aligned with the Council’s vision.

Question 3: The third question is whether there are two topics or two design standards that are the ones that stand out in the draft document.

Councilmember Gee said it is the articulation or massing in a way that makes things not look blocky so scale should be considered.

Vice Mayor Iverson noted that for large subdivisions, especially on hillside lots, the City should apply existing hillside development regulations to prevent problems like massive retaining walls or fortresses as seen in Wilder. She emphasized the need to codify these standards to avoid “castle wall” effects and ensure proper landscaping and growth.

EXTEND MEETING
MOTION by Mayor Malkani, and seconded by Councilmember Gee to extend the meeting at 9:54 p.m. to 10:30 p.m. Said motion carried by unanimous (4-0) vote.

Mayor Malkani said most of the pictures shown of building types such as courtyards and side courts had a sense of walkability and setbacks and she finds that aesthetically pleasing and also community-enhancing.

Councilmember Hoxie said she thinks the entire chapter on building frontages is very important and what is being seen from the street because this is the feel everybody is used to—tree-lined streets without many sidewalks, or more rural-feeling.

Vice Mayor Iverson recommended requiring sidewalks for new residential developments. Ms. Thomson clarified that this is Citywide and the downtown is under a different set of ODS. Also, the ODS are principally the private zone. The interface is with the public realm but there are other tools to deal with the public realm and the question of sidewalks.

City Attorney Wolff said it is true the City is working to adopt ODS for the commercially zoned parts of downtown, but she believes these would apply to the residential multifamily properties downtown which include the Santa Maria site, etc. So, this would touch the downtown a little bit.

Ms. Thomson said the other component was ODS are principally the private limits of privacy property. They are the interface of the public realm, but they do not necessarily have requirements around the public realm. Ms. Wolff said these will be subdivision standards which would include what sort of street amenities the City is going to be requiring which includes lighting, sidewalks, driveway locations, etc.

Vice Mayor Iverson said she supports walkability. If there is a church site and they are building on a portion where a sidewalk can get built along the frontage, she would want this. But, for an individual home site, it would be silly. However, she would defer to experts to figure it out.

Question 4: (While this may have been answered,) Is there anything that struck Councilmembers where they question why it is in the draft.

Mayor Malkani said she wants to be sure that fences and roofs are not excluding things that are firesafe because they are not natural products. If someone wants a steel roof on their house, they should be allowed. Vice Mayor Iverson said she thinks the draft allows for it. Ms. Thomson said it is not as full as it could be because this is an early draft, but this is what they also heard from the Planning Commission.

Councilmember Hoxie also mentioned whether they are building Zone Zero into the ODS so there is 5 feet around all buildings. Ms. Thomson said they have talked generally about landscaping, but they will need to address this and incorporate it.

Sometimes it is as simple as saying that it prevails.

Vice Mayor Iverson voiced concerns that all fences will be black chain link and plastic composites. She asked staff to be very thoughtful about striking a balance with this because it has always been wood-required because it is beautiful. Mayor Malkani and Councilmember Hoxie noted there are many alternative, high-quality materials now which are very attractive.

Question 5: Are there any topics or standards missing?
The Council debated whether to impose architectural style standards. Councilmembers Gee and Hoxie opposed strict style rules, noting Orinda’s existing diversity and evolving aesthetics. Mayor Malkani highlighted the need for cohesive design in downtown multifamily developments, while Vice Mayor Iverson cautioned against over-regulation, which could lead to superficial uniformity. Ms. Thomson noted that building typologies and massing standards provide some control without mandating specific styles.

City Manager Smith noted that this is not a “one and done” opportunity. If the City adopts something less restrictive now theoretically and they start seeing things and do not like the way they are being executed, architectural styles could be added in the future.

Vice Mayor Iverson asked whether the City could set a minimum number of bedrooms in multi-family developments to ensure a mix of unit sizes, including family-friendly options.

Ms. Thomson explained that some cities, like Emeryville, require family-sized units (e.g., 3-bedroom apartments), but such rules usually fall under development regulations rather than design review. Mr. Perez described Santa Barbara’s Average Unit Density program, which ties allowable density to varied unit sizes, encouraging family units. He suggested Orinda could adopt something similar, though placement within ODS or other codes would need legal review.

Vice Mayor Iverson said her concern stems from wanting affordable housing in opportunity zones to accommodate families, noting it might occur naturally but deserves exploration. City Manager Smith added that project types often dictate unit mix — for example, senior or workforce housing — and that family housing may attract distinct state funding opportunities through tax credit programs.

Vice Mayor Iverson withdrew her point because the financing they go with will drive that much more than adding a different standard they must comply with.

Councilmember Hoxie asked about setbacks for remodeled single-family homes, noting their importance for FAR and lot coverage. Ms. Thomson clarified that setbacks remain governed by Title 17 and current regulations still apply.

City Attorney Wolff added that SB 9 and ADU laws limit how strictly setbacks can be enforced. Ms. Thomson agreed, noting the ADU 4-foot setback rule represents a change from previous standards.

Mayor Malkani emphasized that fire safety should be clearly articulated in the document, similar to how environmentally friendly features are addressed.

Councilmember Hoxie commented about walkability and thinks there should be a walkable community feel when developing a subdivision.

Ms. Thomson thanked the Council for feedback and outlined next steps: staff will incorporate comments into a revised ODS draft, aiming for a final winter draft, with adoption targeted for Spring/Summer 2026. She emphasized the importance of codifying local design concepts and “look and feel” alongside current state laws.

Mayor Malkani and Councilmembers thanked Mr. Perez and Ms. Thomson for their extensive and informative presentation.

I. COUNCILMEMBER REPORTS
Vice Mayor Iverson reported that Lamorinda School Bus ridership is up 3% this year, with 1,452 students using the service. Parent contributions are projected at $1.3 million, and Measure J funds have helped minimize fee increases. The program is expected to eliminate roughly 670,680 vehicle trips this school year.

Councilmember Gee reported last week at the CCTA Board meeting the Board authorized staff to release the RFP for the Countywide Evacuation Study. Based on the timeline she expects the consultant will be on board by late Spring next year and the project study would start the second quarter of 2026.

Councilmember Hoxie reported the League of California Cities Conference in Long Beach was great to attend and the session on small cities trying to form their own caucus was interesting and something Orinda should think about participating in the future.

Mayor Malkani reported attending emergency preparedness seminars at the conference where Orinda’s practices aligned well with recommended strategies. She also reported the new League President is a Councilmember from El Cerrito. She also attended the East Bay Wildfire Safety Master Plan Working Group meeting with Senator Grayson and the Assistant City Manager. Key points included:

AGENDA TITLE: Quarterly Investment Report for Quarter Ending September 30, 2025 RECOMMENDATION:

Accept the Quarterly Investment Report for the period ending September 30, 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 July 1, 2025, through September 30, 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, 2026, will be reflected in the City’s financial statements for Fiscal Year 2025-26 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. 19
September 30, 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 28-36)
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 37-39) 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 $41.1 million (book value) invested as of September 30, 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 4.25%. The reported purchase yield was 4.41% one year ago (Quarter ending September 30, 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 4.32% (page 19), which is trending up from

4.23% in the prior quarter.

The following excerpt from page 13 of Attachment A shows the changes in US Treasury Notes (dotted line is the two-year Treasury) since September 2020. At the end of September 2025, the 2-year Treasury yield was 3.6%. In response to growing indications of labor market weakness, the Federal Reserve cut its benchmark overnight borrowing rate by a quarter point at its September 2025 meeting and another quarter point at its October 2025 meeting, bringing it down to a range of 3.75%-4%.

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 0.99 years compared to the benchmark (ICE BofA 1-3 Year US Treasury & Agency Index) maturity guiding the portfolio selection of 1.85 years. As of September 30, 2025, Chandler's Reserve portfolio had a longer average maturity of 2.21 years (Page 19), allowing for higher yields as interest rates decline.

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. Inflation pressures have eased, though core levels remain above the Federal Reserve’s target, while tariffs continue to cloud forecasts. Signs of a softer labor market are emerging, prompting expectations that the Fed will move cautiously toward policy normalization. Given the economic outlook, we expect gradual normalization of monetary policy and a steeper yield curve.

The Federal Reserve lowered the Federal Funds Rate a quarter percentage point to the range of 4.00 – 4.25% upon conclusion of the September Federal Open Market Committee meeting. The move was telegraphed by the Fed and in line with market expectations. Stephen Miran was the only opposing vote in the 11-1 decision as Governor Miran called for a larger 50 basis point rate cut. Chair Powell said concerns over signs of a softening labor market prompted the policy shift. Policymakers also updated their economic forecasts penciling in two additional quarter-point cuts through year-end.

The US Treasury yield curve flattened in September, as the 2-year Treasury yield declined 13 basis points to 3.57%, the 5-year Treasury also down 13 basis points to 3.66%, and the 10-year Treasury yield declined 14 basis points to 4.12%. The spread between the 2-year and 10- year Treasury yield points on the curve decreased to +54 basis points at September month-end versus +61 basis points at August monthend. The spread between the 2-year Treasury and 10-year Treasury yield one year ago was 14 basis points. The spread between the 3- month and 10-year Treasury yield points on the curve was +21 basis points in September versus +8 basis points in August.

Measures of current conditions and future expectations fell, signaling weaker sentiment toward employment and income. Consumers have remained resilient, but rising debt burdens, higher delinquency rates, lingering inflation worries, and emerging signs of labor market cooling could weigh on future spending. 0 20 40

The Conference Board’s Leading Economic Index (LEI) fell by 0.5% in August, following a 0.1% increase in July. The LEI decreased by 3.6% year-over-year. The Conference Board is expecting economic growth to slow in the second half of 2025 due to consumer pessimism, soft manufacturing new orders, and negative impacts from tariffs. The Chicago Fed National Activity Index (CFNAI) came in at -0.12% in August after a downwardly revised -0.28 in July, indicating that economic momentum remained below its historical trend for the fifth consecutive month. The three-month moving average shows a similar trend at -0.18 in August from -0.20 in the prior month signaling ongoing below-trend growth in national economic activity.

The S&P Cotality Case Shiller 20- City Home Price Index recorded a 0.07% month-over-month decline in July, marking the fifth consecutive month of losses, while still posting a modest year-over-year gain of 1.8%. Persistently high asking prices and elevated mortgage rates have continued to challenge affordability, contributing to the recent cooling across the housing market. However, the Freddie Mac 30-year fixed mortgage rate continued recent declines to 6.3% as of September.

EXPANDING

CONTRACTING
Manufacturing activity contracted at a slightly slower rate as the Institute for Supply Management (ISM) Manufacturing Index edged up to

49.1 in September, from 48.7 in August yet remaining below the expansion threshold, signaling the seventh consecutive month of contraction in the manufacturing sector. Production growth factored into the gain, although drops in new orders and inventories offset the increase. The ISM Services Index fell to 50.0 in September from 52.0 in August, which is the breakeven point between expansion and contraction. The 2.0-point decline generally indicated moderate to weak growth, with only isolated reports of supplier delivery delays.

Employment remained in contraction territory, reflecting delayed hiring plans and ongoing challenges in finding qualified workers.

The increase in real GDP in the second quarter was driven by the drop in imports following the significant rise in the first quarter in anticipation of higher tariffs and an increase in consumer spending. The consensus projection calls for 1.7% growth for the third quarter and 1.8% for the full year 2025.

Federal Reserve Balance Sheet Assets

In $ millions
The Federal Reserve lowered its benchmark interest rate by a quarter point to a range of 4.00% to 4.25% at its September meeting, as officials responded to mounting signs of labor market weakness. Chair Jerome Powell said the move was aimed at cushioning the slowdown while keeping policy restrictive enough to fight lingering inflation. The Fed kept its balance-sheet runoff unchanged, maintaining a $5 billion monthly cap on Treasuries and $35 billion on agency and mortgage-backed securities. Since launching its Quantitative Tightening campaign in June 2022, the Fed has reduced its securities holdings by about $2.35 trillion, bringing the total down to roughly $6.6 trillion.

IMPORTANT DISCLOSURES
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.

Source ICE Data Indices, LLC (“ICE”), used with permission. 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. 40 F.2.a

AGENDA TITLE: Hardiman Construction Inc. Contract Acceptance - Group 2 Stormdrain Lining Project (CIP Project Nos. 3101 and 3102) RECOMMENDATION:

Adopt Resolution No. 55-25, Accepting the Work and Contract with Hardiman Construction Inc. as Complete for the Group 2 Stormdrain Lining Project Nos. 3101 and 3102.

BACKGROUND:

The current adopted CIP includes the subject project, which is part of the ongoing effort to address the high priority “Category A” public stormdrain pipes identified in the 2019 Storm Drain Repair Plan. These two CIP projects (“Group 2”) repaired deteriorated corrugated metal pipes at four locations:
• CIP Project #3101 (Orchard Storm Drain Repairs), repaired two pipes:
o PL-409, 96” pipe crossing Moraga Way (at Orchard Rd.) o PL-513, 60” pipe crossing Orchard Rd. (just west of Great Oaks Cr.) • CIP Project #3102 (Ivy Dr. Storm Drain Repairs) repaired three pipes:
o PL-958 & PL-959, twin 42”x72” arch pipes crossing Ivy Dr. (just south of Ramona Dr.)
o PL-864, 96” crossing El Camino Moraga (just north of Dos Encinas) The construction work consisted of installing coffer dams and creek diversion to allow for invert paving, spot repairs as necessary, and applying geopolymer lining.

With respect to CEQA guidelines, the project was determined to be Categorically Exempt under section 15301, class 1, and a Notice of Exemption was filed with the County Clerk on 12-20-2022.

The City established CIP Projects Nos. 3101 and 3102 for the necessary repair work, which was funded from Fund No. 210 (Drainage and Impact Fees) and Fund No. 700 (Capital Improvement General) for Design, Construction and Construction Management.

In March 2024, the City Council awarded the subject construction contract to Hardiman Construction Inc. of Larkspur, in the amount of $582,150 and authorized a 15% contingency, for expenditures up to $670,000.

DISCUSSION:

F.3
Packet Pg. 81
A Notice to Proceed was issued to the Contractor on June 25, 2024, and the work was substantially completed on September 11, 2025 in accordance with the plans and specifications. There were some material delays that prohibited the project from finishing in 2024 before the regulatory permit seasonal work deadline of September 30.

The project was suspended and then restarted this summer to complete the remaining work. The final construction cost, including one change order, amounts to $607,150.

Acceptance by the City Council is necessary in accordance with the contract terms and will allow the City Clerk file the Notice of Completion (Attachment B) with the Contra Costa County Clerk-Recorder’s Office. The City can then release withheld retention funds to the contractor 35 days after recordation of the Notice of Completion, provided that no stop notices are outstanding.

NEXT STEPS:

Upon City Council approval, the City Engineer will sign the Notice of Completion, and the City Clerk will record it.

FISCAL IMPACT:

The existing funding for these CIP Project Nos. 3101 and 3102 is adequate to cover the final contract value. Any remaining unused funds will be returned to the fund balance and will be available for future projects.

AGENDA TITLE: Public Hearing to Consider Certain Findings and Approve Energy Service Contract with Musco Sports Lighting, LLC to Retrofit Sports Field Lights at Wilder Sports Fields #1 and #2 with LED Fixtures (CIP 4195) RECOMMENDATION:

Adopt Resolution 51-25 Adopting Required Findings and Approving a Contract with Musco Sports Lighting, LLC to Retrofit Lighting for Wilder Sports Fields, CIP Project #4195.

BACKGROUND:

The City currently operates two sports fields at the Wilder sports complex with stadium lighting. This stadium lighting includes six poles with 84 fixtures to illuminate the fields for nighttime use. The current metal halide lighting is energy intensive, and CIP Project #4195 was established to retrofit with energy efficient LED (light emitting diode) lamps.

DISCUSSION:

Based on review of PG&E billing over the last 12 months, the average annual energy cost for the Wilder Sports Complex lighting (Fields #1 and #2) is estimated to be $85,000. By retrofitting the fixtures with LED lamps, the energy consumption is estimated to drop by 50%, saving the City approximately $42,500 per year in energy costs – a savings of approximately $425,000 over the next 10 years. City staff obtained a proposal (Attachment B) from Musco Sports Lighting, LLC for an amount of $297,345.

By retrofitting, other savings would also be achieved since LED lamps would last much longer than the existing metal halide lamps. Over the last two years, the City has spent over $13,000 on replacement bulbs. This purchase contract will also include a 10-year warranty covering all materials and on-site labor. Based on energy savings alone, this expenditure would yield a seven-year return on investment. Based on energy savings plus savings on metal halide replacement bulbs, the return on investment drops to six years.

The retrofitting of the sports lights requires a contractor to furnish and install the LED fixtures, and is considered a public works project, which would normally require competitive bidding. However, California Government Code Section 4217.10 to 4217.18 authorizes the City Council to enter into an Energy Services Contract for the implementation of energy related improvements if the City Council finds that it is in the best interest of the City to enter into such Energy Service Contract and that the anticipated cost to the City for retrofitting the lights will be less than the anticipated marginal cost to the City of electrical or other energy that would have been consumed F.4
Packet Pg. 85
by the City absent of such retrofit. As noted above, the cost of the proposed contract, $297,345, would be less than the cost of the electricity saved after a seven-year period.

With respect to CEQA guidelines, as noted in the proposed Resolution, the project is Categorically Exempt under section 15301, class 1 (existing facilities), and a Notice of Exemption will be filed with the County Clerk.

NEXT STEPS:

Staff will route the standard construction contract for signature by the City Manager and Musco for $297,345, with an eight-week materials delivery window and three-day construction schedule to follow.

FISCAL IMPACT:

CIP project #4195 is currently budgeted for $300,000, sufficient funding for the subject contract.

AGENDA TITLE: Housing Element Implementation – Ordinance 25-04, Ordinance 25- 05, Resolution 52-25(A), and Resolution 52-25(B), Regarding Amendments to the General Plan and Zoning, and Adoption of Objective Design Standards RECOMMENDATION:

BACKGROUND:

On September 30, 2025, the City Council held a special meeting and public hearing to consider amendments to its General Plan and changes to its zoning to comply with its certified Housing Element. The changes considered included:

1. A draft Resolution 52-25(A), Amending the General Plan Land Use Chapter and General Plan Map to Create Two New Land Use Designations, “Residential High-Density Multi-Family” and “Residential Very High-Density Multifamily,” for the 6th Cycle Housing Element; and

2. Introducing Ordinance 25-04, Amending Title 17 of the Orinda Municipal Code (Zoning) and Amending the Zoning Map for 5 Opportunity Sites Identified in the 6th Cycle Housing Element Sites Inventory; and

3. A draft Resolution 52-25(B), Amending the General Plan Land Use Chapter and General Plan Map to Create Two New Land Use Designations, “Downtown – Core” and “Downtown – General,” for the 6th Cycle Housing Element; and

4. Introducing Ordinance 25-05, Amending Title 17 of the Orinda Municipal Code (Zoning) and Amending the Zoning Map for 26 Downtown Sites Identified in the 6th Cycle Housing Element Sites Inventory.

The City Council, with the Mayor recusing herself from items 1 and 2 above, waived a full reading for both ordinances, introduced Ordinance 25-04 with no modifications, and introduced Ordinance 25-05 as amended by Staff within the September 29 Late F.5
Packet Pg. 91
Correspondence and directed Staff to bring back for adoption the two proposed resolutions amending the General Plan.

The proposed General Plan amendments to the Land Use Chapter include the introduction of four new land use designations in support of the proposed rezonings, amendments to Title 17, Zoning, of the Orinda Municipal Code (OMC), and adoption of the Objective Design Standards for Multifamily Residential Housing in the Downtown Core and Downtown General Zoning Districts. OMC Title 17 and Zoning Map amendments include the establishment of five new zoning districts and their associated regulations, as well as clarifying edits to sections regulating development in the existing Downtown Commercial and Downtown General Zoning districts.

DISCUSSION:

Resolution 52-25(A), Ordinance 25-04, Resolution 52-25(B), and Ordinance 25-05 (Attachments A through D) are on this agenda for the second reading of each ordinance and consideration of adoption of each ordinance and resolution. The Objective Design Standards for Multifamily Residential Housing in the Downtown Core and Downtown General Zoning Districts (Attachment E) would be adopted by reference by Ordinance 25-05.

The Staff Report and agenda item materials from September 30, 2025, City Council Meeting are attached by weblink (Attachment F) to provide an overview of the ordinances and resolutions.

Direction to Staff on Recent Court of Appeal Decision
This item appeared on the City Council’s October 21, 2025 agenda, but was continued at the request of Staff due to an item of correspondence from the California Housing Defense Fund (CalHDF) shortly before the start of that meeting. That correspondence argues the October 10, 2025, Court of Appeal decision in New Commune DTLA LLC v.

City of Redondo Beach (Attachment G) has implications for one aspect of the proposed Downtown zoning. Staff has reached out to CalHDF about a potential meeting but did not receive a response.

Staff’s assessment is that because the Redondo Beach case was decided so recently, its implications remain unknown at this time. It is unknown, for example, whether the City of Redondo Beach will request depublication and/or appeal the decision. Likewise, HCD has not yet provided its guidance to local governments related to the Redondo Beach case and it is unclear whether the legislature might consider related statutory amendments.

Staff believe it will take several months (and perhaps longer) for the potential applicability and implications of the Redondo Beach case to become clear. In the meantime, Staff does not recommend delaying adoption of the proposed General Plan and zoning amendments. The City is subject to a three-year deadline to implement its certified Housing Element and to be conservative, Staff have been working to get the proposed General Plan and zoning amendments in place by January 31, 2026 (exactly three years after City Council’s January 31, 2023, adoption of the Housing Element).

F.5
Packet Pg. 92
Staff, therefore, recommend the City Council adopt the proposed ordinances and resolutions as introduced on September 30, 2025. These proposed amendments are consistent with the Implementation Actions of the City’s certified Housing Element.

Staff is recommending that the City Council direct Staff to continue to actively monitor State Housing Element law requirements as they may evolve in relation to the October 10, 2025, Redondo Beach Court of Appeal decision so that Staff can bring back, for timely City Council consideration, any further amendments that might be appropriate to ensure compliance.

Additionally, in accordance with state law and the City’s Housing Element Implementation Action 1.H, if any project were to propose and be approved for development at a Downtown site that causes the City to fall short of accommodating the Regional Housing Needs Allocation requirements, the City would be subject to “No Net Loss” rules requiring the City to identify replacement site(s) within 180 days.

FISCAL IMPACT:

None.

SECTION 1.

The City Council of the City of Orinda intends, by adopting this ordinance, to amend certain zoning regulations in Title 17 of the Orinda Municipal Code (Zoning). These changes are intended to make the City’s Zoning Code consistent with the adopted 6th Cycle Housing Element of the City’s General Plan and to comply with State and Federal law. The changes include the creation of two new districts: “RH-25” and “RH-40” zoning districts, as well as new development standards for two zoning districts. This ordinance also amends the City’s Zoning Map to apply the new “RH-25” and “RH-40” zoning districts on a portion of five opportunity sites identified in the 6th Cycle Housing Element.

SECTION 2.

The following portions of the Zoning Code are amended and added as specified below and in Attachment A. Attachment A shows additions with double-underlined text and deletions with strike-out text.

5. Caltrans Right-of-Way (adjacent to Highway-24, Wilder Road westbound exit) - “RH-40” zoning applied to a 5.00 acre portion of the Caltrans right-of-way.

SECTION 4.

If any section, subsection, subdivision, paragraph, sentence, clause or phrase of this ordinance is for any reason held to be invalid, such a decision shall not affect the validity of the remaining portions of this ordinance. The City Council hereby declares that it would have passed each section, subsection, subdivision, paragraph, sentence, clause or phrase of this ordinance irrespective of the invalidity of any section, subsection, subdivision, paragraph, sentence, clause or phrase.

SECTION 5.

This ordinance is consistent with the Orinda General Plan, including the relevant development densities described in the Housing Element. This ordinance is necessary to implement the Orinda Housing Element and is part of Plan Orinda.

SECTION 6.

The City Council finds that this ordinance is necessary to implement the Orinda Housing Element, which is part of Plan Orinda, and not subject to any requirement for additional review under the California Environmental Quality Act (“CEQA”). On March 18, 2025, the City Council adopted the Revised Final Environmental Impact Report (“RFEIR”) for Plan Orinda via Resolution No. 13-25. The zoning changes contained in this ordinance are within the scope of Plan Orinda and were fully evaluated in the related environmental review documents (together, “Program EIR”) adopted for Plan Orinda. 14 Cal. Code Regs (“CCR”) §§ 15163, 15168. The Program EIR addresses all requirements of CEQA for this ordinance, including the analysis of significant impacts, cumulatively considerable contributions, and feasible mitigation measures of Plan Orinda. On March 18, 2025, the Council also adopted Resolution No. 13-25 containing CEQA findings and a statement of overriding considerations for the Orinda Housing Element based on substantial evidence. Id. § 15183.

The zoning changes contained in this ordinance do not have any environmental effects not already fully examined in the Program EIR, including in the RFEIR (id. § 15168) or project-specific significant effects peculiar to the project or the site that were not fully analyzed in the Program EIR, including potentially significant off-site or cumulative impacts (id. § 15183). Consequently, the zoning changes contained in this ordinance do not require any subsequent review or revisions to the Program EIR. The zoning F.5.b
Packet Pg. 103 Attachment: Ordinance 25-04 Amending Title 17 of the Orinda Municipal Code (Zoning) and Amending the Zoning Map for 5 Opportunity Sites

Page 3 of 4 ends

changes contained in this ordinance are part of the project analyzed in the Program EIR and do not involve any changes in the project or project circumstances that might require revisions to the Program EIR. Id. § 15162; Pub. Res. Code § 21166. Additionally, there are no substantial changes or new information that might require revisions to the Program EIR. 14 CCR §§ 15168, 15183.

All feasible mitigation identified in the Program EIR has been incorporated in the adopted Mitigation Monitoring and Reporting Program (“MMRP”) via Resolution No. 13-

25. These mitigation measures will apply to any development under Plan Orinda, including any development of sites consistent with the zoning changes contained in this ordinance. Id. §§ 15168, 15183. These mitigation measures will be undertaken as described in the MMRP.

This ordinance is also exempt from CEQA because it contains rezonings that implement the schedule of actions in Plan Orinda, as part of the Orinda Housing Element, and does not allow for construction of a distribution center, oil and gas infrastructure, or any development on natural and protected lands. Public Resources Code § 21080.085.

SECTION 7.

This ordinance becomes effective thirty (30) days after adoption.

SECTION 8.

The City Clerk shall either (a) have this ordinance published once within fifteen (15) days after adoption in a newspaper of general circulation, or (b) have a summary of this ordinance published twice in a newspaper of general circulation, once five (5) days before its adoption and again within fifteen (15) days after adoption.

These standards shall also apply to proposed multifamily dwellings in the RM and RH districts, including those in the High Density Overlay District (- HD Overlay) district. These standards apply only to the extent permitted under state law:

1. The proposed development is designed to respect the scale and tranquility of nearby properties and does not impair the existing views, block access to light and air or infringe on the privacy of neighbors in a substantial fashion. In considering this factor, decisionmakers shall balance the importance of minimizing impacts on neighboring properties and the applicant's ability to develop the property. The term "view" shall be defined in Section 17.22.4.

2. The development is pedestrian-oriented with pedestrian connections to adjoining public streets and parks and vehicular parking does not overwhelm the character of development.

3. The visible mass of the building is minimized and facades highly visible from nearby off-site vantage points are designed to reduce the blocky or massive features of building surfaces and provide articulation and visual interest.

4. Primary landscaping elements consist mainly of locally native species. Landscaping shall provide substantial screening from off-site vantage points and, as appropriate, side and rear yard landscaping. Landscaping shall blend with the design of the development, enhance the visual quality of the streetscape, and help achieve design consistency with the character of the neighborhood.

5. The development is designed to relate to the natural and man-made context of the site including on- and off-site views of the hills and open space areas; solar access for on-site common areas and adjacent properties; creek preservation, restoration and orientation; and preservation of street trees. The proposed development is designed to protect undeveloped ridgelines and hillsides and preserve significant or unique scenic vistas.

6. Development on parcels in excess of one acre is designed to avoid monolithic undifferentiated building masses.

Packet Pg. 124 Attachment: Resolution 52-25(B) Amending the General Plan Land Use Chapter and General Plan Map (3744 : Adoption of Housing Element

1. Modify the following paragraph within “2.1 Land Use Element”:

For consistency with the scale and nature of Orinda, the Downtownretail and office districts should have characteristics that can be described as "village character." This can be defined as a commercial area of relatively low densitymoderate average densities with a predominance of small-scale, low-lying buildings of varying architectural styles (generally not exceeding between two and four stories) fronting on streets or landscaped, plaza-like spaces.

2. Add the following two classifications to “2.1 Land Use Element: Land Use Classifications” (alphabetically):

Downtown – Core: This classification reflects the uses and development allowed within the Downtown – Community Business land use category, while additionally allowing mixed-use, multifamily residential development. The minimum residential density is 20 units per acre and the maximum densities range from 30 to 55 units per acre, as determined by zoning.

Downtown – General: This classification reflects the uses and development allowed within the Downtown – Business and Professional Offices land use categories, while additionally allowing mixed-use, multifamily residential development. The minimum residential density is 20 units per acre and the maximum density is 25 units per acre.

3. Modify the “Downtown” section within 2.1 Land Use Element:

The downtown area of Orinda is divided into four distinct areas:

1. 1) Multi-Family Residential,

2. Community Business area, which includes Downtown – , 2) Community Business and Downtown – Core, which isare predominantly retail, at the ground level and a variety of office, multifamily residential, and other uses at the upper levels,

3. 3) Business and Professional Office areas, which includes Downtown – Business and Professional Offices and Downtown – General, which are primarily office-only developments with some mixed-use office and residential developments, and

4. 4) Public and Semi-Public areas (see Figure 2).

The Community Business area should be predominantly retail at the ground floor. There is concern that vacant retail space has frequently been converted to office use. Although a limited amount of offices that meet the needs of local residents and businesses are acceptable, they should not displace retail stores and service space. Above the ground floor, professional offices are allowed in the Downtown – Community Business land use category, while multi-family residential is additionally allowed in these locations and within the portions of buildings not abutting or facing streets or primary pedestrian thoroughfares within the Downtown – Core land use category.

The Community Business area includes the block bounded by Moraga Way, Bryant Way, Camino Pablo and Brookwood Road, where the Crossroads Project is located. In return for the developer's restoration of the Orinda Theatre, a building of historic significance to the community, this project, which was approved prior to the adoption of this General Plan and is thus not subject to its constraints, will include more office space and a greater floor area ratio than would ordinarily be allowed in the

EXHIBIT A
F.5.c
Packet Pg. 125 Attachment: Resolution 52-25(B) Amending the General Plan Land Use Chapter and General Plan Map (3744 : Adoption of Housing Element Community Business area. It is also recognized that this project does not conform to the height limit and to the land use constraints contained in this Plan applicable to the rest of the Community Business area. The General Plan prohibits similar non-conforming uses in other locations in the Community Business area.

Business and Professional Office areas should also conform to the "village character" of the entire downtown area, and should provide office suites suitable for office uses supporting local community residents and businesses, rather than regional offices from the primarily local community and secondarily the Lamorinda region.

Both large retail commercial uses intended to serve regional markets and large office complexes serving broader regional or statewide needs are discouraged in the Community Business area.

Such uses would seriously alter the character of the downtown area and create unmanageable problems for an area already beset with severe parking and circulation problems.

With a stable trade area population and limited space to grow, (without adding large buildings that intrude on residential areas) both the Village and the Crossroads must rely on more efficient traffic circulation and parking as well as design improvements to attract increased business and a variety of retail shops.

4. Modify “2.1.3 Downtown: Guiding Policies”:

A. Enhance the "village character" of downtown. Large, highly visible parking lots characteristic of strip shopping centers are inconsistent with village character.

B. Favor retail services needed frequently by residents by limiting the amount of office space in predominantly retail areas. Office space in retail areas should serve Lamorinda uses and generally not exceed retail space on any one lot.

C. Limit development at the Orinda BART station to ground level and underground parking.

Encourage BART to develop additional ground level parking on off-site properties.

D. Maintain current boundaries between commercial/mixed-use areas and purely residential areas as indicated on the Downtown Inset General Plan map. The Plan does not envision any expansion of the land area designated for commercial or office use.

E. Allow for the development of mixed-use, high-density multifamily housing to accommodate a portion of the City’s Regional Housing Needs Allocation in accordance with the Housing Element.

EF. Make downtown shopping more attractive by diverting through traffic off local streets in the business district, providing more convenient circulation for shopping traffic, managing the parking supply more efficiently, creating safe and pleasant pedestrian routes, and developing and maintaining sufficient landscaping.

FG. Businesses that generate heavy traffic such as financial institutions should front arterial streets.

Small buildings should buffer adjoining residential areas.

GH. Develop a parking time limitation ordinance which encourages retail and commercial customers to use the Downtown areas.

HI. To the extent permitted by state law, sSite proximity to the BART terminal should not be used to justify a reduction in the standard requirement(s) for onsite parking, unless a Transportation System Management contract is made with the City.

5. Modify “2.1.4 Downtown: Implementing Policies”:

A. Enhance architectural compatibility in each sector of downtown by establishing design districts that provide guidelines and a review process for site layouts, architectural design, alterations, landscaping, and signs. Sloping roofs are encouraged on new buildings in districts where such features are common.

B. Require planting and maintenance of trees and other plant material throughout downtown, according to a comprehensive landscape plan.

C. Enact regulations that will ensurefavor small-scale, low-lying buildings by limiting height to 3545 feet (generally not more than twofour stories) and total floor area to a limited percent of lot area.

D. Enact regulations to ensure that existing and new ground-floor spaces in retail shopping areas are predominantly occupied by retail or specified service uses, including those within groundfloor spaces converted from offices.that will ensure retail or specified service occupancy of space within the retail shopping area now occupied by those uses, by all new ground-floor space, and by all office uses which convert to retail.

E. Enact regulations that will ensure that the ground levels of the central business area will be predominantly retail and whichthat permit only a limited amount of offices that favor local use needs.

F. Develop a beautification plan for downtown to enhance the visual quality of the streetscape and creek area, including guidelines for public improvements such as landscaping, tree grate design, outdoor lighting, tree planting, and street furniture.

G. Enable Ppublic parking structures areas a permitted land use in the downtown provided that they are adequately screened from public view.

H. Regulate on-street parking to maintain space availability for shoppers, and continue to study means of adding to the parking supply.

I. Study the possible extension of Orinda Way under Highway 24 to link with Moraga Way for the purpose of reconnecting local vehicular and pedestrian traffic between Crossroads and Village areas.

J. Develop Objective Design Standards for the regulation of mixed-use, multi-family residential development in applicable land use categories.

Village Area Development
JK. In cooperation with the merchants and property owners, develop a plan for Orinda Way that will consolidate driveways, include a landscaped street median if feasible, and enrich the street's landscape character.

KL. Encourage property owners to make more intensive use of the San Pablo Creek sides of their buildings by designating a ''private street" with public access parallel to the creek that would provide an alternative connection for shoppers who must now turn on and off Orinda Way and/or enhance and preserve San Pablo Creek with landscaping, pathways and other pedestrian amenities, consistent with its primary purpose as flood control.

LM. Seek to obtain right-of-way and provide a public cross street connecting Orinda Way and Camino Pablo between Black's and Vintage House.

H. Supplemental Restrictions for Specific Uses. The following uses are permitted in the downtown commercial district subject to particular restrictions for such uses as described below and subject to obtaining a commercial use permit under Chapter 17.36.

1. Adult Businesses.
a. Purpose.
i. In adopting these provisions, the City Council recognizes that certain types of adult businesses possess certain objectionable operational characteristics which, if such uses are allowed to concentrate, will have adverse effects upon the character of such areas and adjacent neighborhoods. The City Council further recognizes that locating adult businesses in close proximity to establishments frequented by minors will cause the exposure of minors to adult material that may adversely affect such minors due to their immaturity.

Additionally, the City Council recognizes that, while certain adult entertainment enjoys limited protection under the First Amendment to the United States Constitution, substantial numbers of citizens of the city are offended by the public display of sexuallyoriented material. ii. Special and limited regulation of adult businesses, consistent with the First Amendment rights of such uses, is therefore necessary. This will ensure that the adverse effects of adult businesses will not contribute to the blighting or downgrading of the DC district in which they are permitted and the downgrading of surrounding neighborhoods; will not adversely affect minors; and will not offend those citizens of the city who do not wish to be exposed to sexually-oriented material.
b. Location of Adult Businesses. No adult businesses, including adult bookstores, adult movie theaters, and massage establishments, shall be located:
i. Within four hundred (400) feet of any R district;
ii. Within three hundred (300) feet of the boundaries of a parcel of a real property site occupied by a public or private school, a religious assembly facility that conducts religious education classes for minors, or a park and recreation facility; iii. Within six hundred (600) feet of any other adult business; or iv. On the ground level of a building.

F.5.d
Packet Pg. 143 Attachment: Ordinance 25-05 Amending Title 17 of the Orinda Municipal Code (Zoning) and Amending the Zoning Map for 26 Downtown Sites c. Public Display of Certain Matter Prohibited. No business shall display or exhibit any material depicting private anatomical areas or sexual activities in such a way as to be visible by persons outside the building in which the adult business is located.

2. Convenience Market at a Service Station.
a. The area for nonautomotive retail sales within a service station shall be completely enclosed and no larger than forty (40) square feet.
b. A service station convenience market shall not be within the immediate vicinity of a church or hospital or within six hundred (600) feet or less of a school, public playground or nonprofit youth facility, as measured pursuant to the rules of the Department of Alcoholic Beverages. c. No variance may be granted for the requirements in subsections (H)(2)(a) and (H)(2)(b) of this section.

3. Game Centers. The following supplemental regulations shall apply to the operation of game centers, including mechanical or electronic games or any other similar machine or device. a. Purpose. The intent of these regulations is to control the location and hours of operation of game centers so as not to allow school children to play the games during school hours nor to encourage minors to congregate in areas close to commercial establishments that sell alcoholic beverages.
b. Permit Required. A commercial use permit shall be required to install, operate or maintain four or more mechanical or electronic games. The permit is valid only for the number of games specified; the installation or use of additional games requires a new or amended permit. The permit shall be permanently and conspicuously displayed. c. Duration and Renewal of Permit. Initially, the permit shall be valid only for one year. Thereafter, the Community Development Director may renew the permit for periods of not more than two years. The procedure for renewal is the same as that for the initial application, and the same factors considered for the initial application shall be considered for the renewal. d. Adult Manager. At least one adult manager shall be on the premises during the time a game center is open to the public.
e. Hours of Operation for Minors Under Eighteen Years of Age. No game center owners, manager or employees shall allow a minor under eighteen (18) years of age to play a mechanical or electronic game machine during the hours of public schools in the district in which the center is located are in session, or after nine p.m. on nights preceding school days, or after ten p.m. on any night. It is the responsibility of the owner or manager of the game center to obtain a current schedule of school days and hours.
f. Locational Criteria. A game center shall not be permitted within three hundred (300) feet of a public or private school site or the boundary of an R district, or within five hundred (500) feet of a liquor store, a cocktail lounge, tavern or bar. The distance shall be measured in a straight line from the main public entrance to the game center to the property line of the school site, the district boundary, or the main public entrance of the liquor store or cocktail lounge, as the case may be.
g. Restrictions. The Planning Commission may impose reasonable restrictions on the physical design, location, and operation of a game center in order to minimize the effects of noise, congregation, parking, and other nuisance factors that may be detrimental to the public health, safety and welfare of the surrounding community.

4. Live Entertainment. The following regulations shall apply to any use offering scheduled live entertainment, as defined, more than three times per calendar year:
a. Exits not limited to emergency use only shall not be opposite an R district adjoining the site.

Activities prohibited in a service station include other major repair activities such as engine overhauls involving body and fender work, painting and undercoating.

7. Ancillary Retail Use. An ancillary retail use is permitted in the downtown commercial district if a noticed hearing is held under Chapter 17.42 in conjunction with the application for a commercial use permit and findings of fact are made to support each of the following criteria:
a. The existence of the ancillary retail use will not significantly and adversely alter the impact and the character of the primary retail use,

c. The ancillary use will not create a significant adverse impact on parking and pedestrian and vehicular traffic,

3. Maximum Height. The maximum height of a nonresidential accessory structure shall be twelve (12) feet, subject to the provisions of this subsection; provided, that pitched roofs shall not exceed a height of sixteen (16) feet.

4. Relation to Property Lines. A nonresidential accessory structure in a required rear yard shall be located on a property line or shall be not less than three feet from a property line. A structure on a property line shall not exceed six feet in height at the property line and shall not intercept an inclined daylight plane sloping inward from a point six feet above the property line and rising one foot for each foot of distance for the property line.

F. Mechanical Equipment.

3. Screening Specifications. Screening material may have evenly distributed openings or perforations not exceeding fifty (50) percent of the surface area and must effectively screen mechanical equipment so that it is not directly visible from off-site.

G. Refuse Storage Areas. A refuse storage area located within a building or screened on all sides by a sixfoot high concrete, masonry wall or similar screening mechanism and including an access gate must be provided before occupancy for uses other than a single-family or multifamily dwelling. The Planning Director may waive this screening requirement for refuse collection and storage equipment, including the use of a dumpster and waste storage container, if the collection/storage area is not visible from a street.

Building types are used to articulate size, scale, and intensity according to the intent of each zone.

2. The design site size standards for each building type are set in each zone to generate pedestrian-oriented buildings within the overall intended physical FKDUDFWHURIHDFK]RQH7KHGHVLJQVLWHVL]HVWDQGDUGLGHQWLȴHVWKHUDQJHRIdesign site sizes on which the given building type is allowed to be built.

3. Certain building types have additional standards beyond the zone standards to further calibrate the type for its context.

4. Each design site shall have only one primary building type developed in accordance with these Objective Design Standards, except as follows, and in compliance with all standards: A. Multiple Design Sites. More than one building type is allowed on a parcel WKDWLGHQWLȴHVSURSRVHGPXOWLSOHGHVLJQVLWHOLQHVWKDWPHHWWKHVWDQGDUGVof this Section. (1) A parcel large enough to accommodate multiple design sites but smaller than the size of a block.

5. On-Site Open Space. The standards identify only the required type (private or common) and amount. For example, if the type only has standards for private open space, common open space is not required for that building type. The LGHQWLȴHGDPRXQWLVIRUWKHHQWLUHEXLOGLQJXQOHVVVSHFLȴHGRWKHUZLVH

6. Parking. Parking shall be designed in compliance with the zone standards for parking placement.

7. Main Body and Wings. Buildings are articulated as a larger "body" and smaller "wings". Wings are required to be smaller in size and height than the main body to visually reduce the overall size of a building.

Staff Report
Agenda Item: H.1
Date: November 3, 2025
Department:

Public Works and
Engineering Services
AGENDA TITLE: Sign Committee Recommendation, Update on Project and Request to Rebrand from Crossroads Mini Park to Crossroads Plaza
RECOMMENDATION:

Receive the update on the project and approve the Ad-Hoc Sign Committee recommendation for the entryway monument sign and the project name as Crossroads Plaza.

BACKGROUND:

At the April 15, 2025, meeting, the City Council reviewed monument sign options for the Crossroads Park project and decided to create an ad-hoc sign Committee (“Committee”) to study the matter further and provide a recommendation. The Committee consists of Vice Mayor Iverson and Councilmember Riley.

Staff had earlier received direction to work with the Orinda Garden Club to review plant selection for the new landscaping. Since the April 2025 meeting, Staff has held two meetings with Club representatives and the Project’s landscape architect and utilized input from the Club.

DISCUSSION:

PG&E Lease
The subject City park/plaza is on land owned by PG&E, under a 25-year lease agreement, in runs from 2021 to 2046. The lease has several restrictions, including limits to tree heights (10 feet), materials (no metal) and discouragement of congregation (no benches or seating allowed). The lease also requires that any alteration of the land be submitted as a work plan, subject to PG&E approval. The work plan would consist of the subject project plans, including the monument sign details.

Monument Sign
The “fin” sign was originally proposed for the entryway monument sign (Attachment A).

Staff engaged Arrow Sign Company to provide sign options that would look like the fin sign. Arrow Sign has extensive experience in the Bay Area with both commercial and municipal signage in all phases, from design to installation.

Following extensive discussions the City Council, the Committee reviewed a variety of sign style options with Staff and Arrow Sign Company, including materials and lettering.

Following this review, the Ad-Hoc Sign Committee believes that the “fin” sign style would be most appropriate for the area.

H.1
Packet Pg. 229
The recommended sign material is natural stone (granite slab), which would be ½ inch thick and cemented onto a concrete wall/pedestal supported by a spread footing foundation. The lettering for “Welcome to Orinda” would be mounted on the granite surface (with 1/8 inch standoff) and be silver metallic in appearance but made of painted acrylic. A rendering of the sign is included as Attachment B.

The Committee reviewed several versions of the sign and several granite samples before arriving at the recommended design (Attachment B). Alternate designs which the Committee considered are shown in Attachment C, which shows different lettering fonts and a different granite color.

Project Status
As noted above, Staff held meetings with the Committee for sign selection, and also with the Garden Club to obtain input on plant selection and layout. Meetings were also held with PG&E regarding possible exceptions to the no metal requirement, to no avail.

Plans are substantially complete and under review by Staff and then will be ready for submittal to PG&E for approval, subject to City Council concurrence with the Committee’s sign recommendation. For an overview of the project please refer to aerial exhibit (Attachment D).

An outline of the schedule is as follows:
• November 2025 PG&E review plans
• December 2025 Solicit bids; secure electrical permit
• January 2026 Receive bids and award contract
• February 2026 Begin work, demo and concrete foundation • March 2026 install conduits, irrigation (weather permitting) • April 2026 Install granite sign (separate contract)
• April – May 2026 Planting
• May 2026 Completion

Project Name Change – Crossroads Plaza
Staff also believes that rebranding this community feature from a Park to a Plaza is appropriate given the limitations imposed by PG&E. Staff recommends the name moving forward as “Crossroads Plaza.” The general location where Highway 24 abuts Moraga Way has historically been referred to as “Crossroads,” the intersection of the predecessor roads, Tunnel Road and Moraga Highway.

NEXT STEPS:

Upon City Council direction as to sign preference, Staff will submit plans and information to PG&E for their approval. After such approval, Staff would then solicit bids in accordance with Public Contract Code requirements. After bids are opened and reviewed, Staff will come back to City Council with a recommendation for contract award.

FISCAL IMPACT:

No changes in funding are requested at this time. The CIP budget for the project for Fiscal Year 2025-26 is $345,000, as shown in the CIP detail page (Attachment E).

Design work is nearing completion, for which $30,000 will be charged to the current Fiscal Year budget, leaving $315,000 for construction and related work. Funding is sufficient for the current construction cost estimate, as described above.

Agenda Item: H.2
Date: November 3, 2025
Department: Administration
AGENDA TITLE: Infrastructure Committee Date Extension
RECOMMENDATION:

Receive an update from the Infrastructure Committee and extend the term to December 2026.

BACKGROUND:

On February 6, 2024, the City Council formed the Infrastructure Committee to evaluate options for better integrating and managing infrastructure and make recommendations to the City Council. The initial term was until the end of 2024.

On June 18, 2024, the City Council adopted the Committee’s Work Program, which included evaluation of private roads and storm drains, among other related priorities.

On January 7, 2025, the City Council, through an action to amend and restate several committees, extended the term of the Infrastructure Committee to December 2025.

DISCUSSION:

The Infrastructure Committee, composed of Mayor Malkani and Councilmember Gee, have been working for more than a year on implementing the Work Program with the assistance of Staff. There are still some outstanding items on the Work Program, including the completion of private storm drain mapping, along with the policy options for private roads for the City Council’s consideration. The Committee is recommending a term extension until December 2026 to complete these tasks.

The Committee is also able to provide the City Council at this meeting with a verbal update on their efforts.

NEXT STEPS:

If the City Council approves the term extension, work will continue to bring back policy options for the Council’s consideration in middle of next calendar year.

FISCAL IMPACT:

There is no fiscal impact associated with this item. Any costs associated with work from the Committee must be approved by the City Council.
