SCOPE OF WORK
HISTORIC DOWNTOWN OROVILLE PHASE 1

SERVICES PROVIDED
NorthStar has prepared the following scope of services to develop the project design and subsequent construction bid documents that best supports the successful implementation of this project. This scope is based on our understanding of the project at the time of this proposal, a recent site visit, and the Design Team’s collective experience with similar improvement projects.

We appreciate the opportunity to discuss the scope of this project and the respective level of effort during the proposal process.

PROJECT DESCRIPTION
The scope of work for Historic Downtown Oroville Phase 1-3 consists of pavement maintenance, rehabilitation, striping, and traffic calming measures south of the Feather River, east of Feather River Boulevard, and north of Mitchell Avenue, see Attachment A. All roadways within this bounded area will be evaluated and a determination will be made as to what extent the pavement needs to be resurfaced or removed and replaced. This project does not include improvements to sidewalk, curb, gutter, or any ADA improvements.

Project Management
NorthStar Engineering will perform the various services and activities associated with management of the contract. Diligent contract management for state funded contracts is a critical component in successfully managing these public funds and ultimately maintaining the City’s positive standing with funding agencies.

PROJECT ADMINISTRATION AND OVERHEAD
Project Administration and Overhead includes front office and project administration including but not limited to, contract management, managing insurance policies, packaging, mailing and deliveries, billing, Ajera billing software setup, certified payroll invoicing, etc.

PROJECT COORDINATION
Explicit and thorough communications with the City and with the design sub consultants is vital to the success of any project, and as such the NorthStar Design Team segregates this as a separate scope and budget component to acknowledge and account for this element during the life of the project development. To effectively manage the project NorthStar anticipates weekly one-hour meetings for the duration of the project with the City to review project progress and activities.

QUALITY ASSURANCE / QUALITY CONTROL
NorthStar Engineering’s approach to quality assurance and control program has been developed over the course of performing engineering consulting services for a variety of clients and complex projects over the past 40 years. Two primary methods for consistently delivering a quality product 55 Item 2.

on-time and within budget; internal communications that established a clear level of expectations, and peer review for clarity and accuracy for salient deliverables.

Topographic Survey and Base Mapping
NorthStar will retain the services of an Aerial Photogrammetrist to perform a topographic survey and provide a base map suitable for the planning of the new roadway rehabilitation projects within the Historic Downtown Oroville area. The topographic map shall include:
• Color Ortho Mosaic Photo @ 0.25’ pixel size
• Planimetric mapping features within the roadway corridors (Approximately an 80’ swath) that will include the following:
o Existing striping
o Tree canopy lines
o Surface Roadway Features
o Surface Utility Features
The aerial photogrammetric map shall be prepared at a 1” = 40’ scale with 1’ contours.

The vertical control will be on the North American Vertical Datum of 1988 (NAVD88). The topographic survey will be compiled in AutoCAD Civil 3D 2018.

A signed pdf file of the Topographic Base Map and the AutoCAD drawing file will be provided for the project teams use.

This task excludes the determination of street rights-of-way and underground utility compilation within the project area.

Design – Phase 1
Schematic and Design Development
The schematic design completion serves multiple functions in the design process such as identifying and resolving site specific prospective challenges. Utilizing this phase of development for problem solving and iterative design prevents unnecessary expenditure of resources on an errant design trajectory.

Design development will progress the schematic preliminary design by incorporation of discussed refinements and preferred alternatives. This task is intended to perform the bulk of the design effort, and will include developing the bid item list, quantities, engineer’s estimate, and technical specifications.

Based on the City’s comments during weekly design meetings and periodic QA/QC technical reviews the project plans, specifications and estimate will be progressed to a 90% level of completion including preparation and inclusion of applicable bid documents. Additionally, this level of design will be developed to support submittal of the Request for Allocation for the construction phase of the project. The project plans will include label detailing, notes, and design refinements to support implementation of the project by any contractor. Similarly, project 56 Item 2.

specifications and engineer’s estimate will be refined to support successful implementation of the project.

DELIVERABLES:
• 90% Complete Civil Design
• Engineers Estimate
• Technical specifications
Final Design and Contract Documents
After receiving comments from City of Oroville on the 90% level of design, the Contract and Construction Documents will be refined to address applicable comments and best support constructability of the project.

DELIVERABLES:
• One set of hard copy (letter size) and digital copy (pdf and MS Word) 100% level of project Bid Book including; Bid Requirements, Bid Documents, Contract Forms, General Conditions, and Technical Specifications.
• One set of 100% hard copy and digital copy of (24x36) documents Storm Drain MS4
It is our understanding that the City of Oroville does not follow MS4 standards and specifications. It is assumed that storm drain MS4 management system complying with Post Construction Standards will not be required for this project and is not included in the proposal.

Although MS4 is not required, time has been included in the estimate to provide a clarification letter and supporting documentation to the City of Oroville.

QA/QC
Projects completed internally by NorthStar for The City of Oroville will be subject to review by a council of project adjacent city employees and the responsible person(s) in charge after the project(s) at 60% and 90 % Completion. The QA/QC with the City of Oroville will be performed in lieu of an outside plan check and is for the city to ensure the scope of the project has been fulfilled and to address conflicts that remain prior to advertising and bidding.

Bidding
NorthStar will route for signatures and deliver the Final (100%) Contract Documents for bidding purposes after completion of full review and subsequent modifications.

Additionally, NorthStar will aid the City during the construction bidding and awarding process.

Specifically, NorthStar will provide technical support to the City by answering and documenting questions from potential bidders and staff. NorthStar will also provide written responses to contractor requests for information (RFI’s) during the bidding process and draft addendums as applicable.

Schematic and Design Development
The schematic design completion serves multiple functions in the design process such as identifying and resolving site specific prospective challenges. Utilizing this phase of development for problem solving and iterative design prevents unnecessarily expenditure of resources on an errant design trajectory.

Design development will progress the schematic preliminary design by incorporation of discussed refinements and preferred alternatives. This task is intended to perform the bulk of the design effort, and will include developing the bid item list, quantities, engineer’s estimate, and technical specifications.

Based on the City’s comments during weekly design meetings and periodic QA/QC technical reviews the project plans, specifications and estimate will be progressed to a 90% level of completion including preparation and inclusion of applicable bid documents. Additionally, this level of design will be developed to support submittal of the Request for Allocation for the construction phase of the project. The project plans will include label detailing, notes, and design refinements to support implementation of the project by any contractor. Similarly, project specifications and engineer’s estimate will be refined to support successful implementation of the project.

DELIVERABLES:
79 Item 2.
• 90% Complete Civil Design

CITY OF OROVILLE

STAFF REPORT
TO: MAYOR PITTMAN AND COUNCIL MEMBERS
FROM: MATT THOMPSON, PE, ACTING CITY ENGINEER
RE: PAVEMENT REHABILITATION LIST FOR SUBMITTAL TO CALIFORNIA

TRANSPORTATION COMMISSION (CTC) FOR FUNDING COMPLIANCE
DATE: MAY 16, 2023

SUMMARY
The Council may consider adopting the attached resolution and authorize the City Engineer and Financial Director to submit a list of prioritized roads and streets for rehabilitation to the CTC for compliance with CTC guidelines. The CTC requires the submittal for the City to be eligible for additional funding under Senate Bill 1 (SB 1) and Assembly Bill 135 (AB 135).

DISCUSSION
The Road Repair and Accountability Act of 2017 (SB 1 Beall) includes a substantial boost in Local Streets and Roads Funding over the Highway Users Tax Account allocations that cities and counties have been receiving. The Act establishes a new Road Maintenance and Rehabilitation Account (RMRA) in the state treasury and allocates amounts to cities and counties from that account based on statutory formulas.

The Road Repair and Accountability Act contains a local agency maintenance of effort (MOE) requirement that applies to funds allocated through the RMRA. The Act states that the MOE requirement is to ensure that these new roads funds do not supplant existing levels of city and county general revenue spending on streets and roads. The MOE for the receipt of RMRA funds states that a city or county must maintain general fund spending for street, road, and highway purposes at no less than average of 2009– 10, 2010–11, and 2011–12 years. The average general fund allocation for these three fiscal years was $832,205.00. In making this calculation certain one-time funds may be excluded. A city or county that fails to comply in a particular year may make it up with in additional expenditures in the following year.

The Act provides that the State Controller may perform audits to ensure compliance with these MOE rules. If the State Controller determines that a city or county has not met its MOE, the agency will be required to reimburse the State for the funds it received during that fiscal year. However, a city or county that fails to comply in a particular fiscal 88 Item 3.

year may expend during that fiscal year and the following fiscal year a total amount that is sufficient to comply. Any funds withheld or returned as a result of a failure to comply will be reapportioned to the other counties and cities whose expenditures are in compliance.

In order to maintain compliance with state requirements and assure that the City of Oroville continues to receive its share of funding, City Staff must submit our prioritized list of roads and streets for rehabilitation and repair. The CTC does not “approve” or “deny” project lists, they simply gather the cities’ project lists into a State database for transparency and accountability purposes.

FISCAL IMPACT
Project Design, Construction, and Construction Management is funded by RMRA Funds from SB 1. Adoption of resolution will have no immediate impact to the City’s local transportation fund or general fund. However, submittal of list to CTC will assure future allocations of funding from the State to the City for road repair and rehabilitation.

RECOMMENDATION
Adopt Resolution No. 9136 - A RESOLUTION OF THE CITY COUNCIL OF THE CITY OF OROVILLE ADOPTING A LIST OF PROJECTS FOR FISCAL YEAR 2023-24 FUNDED BY SB 1: THE ROAD REPAIR AND ACCOUNTABILITY ACT OF 2017

STAFF REPORT
TO: MAYOR PITTMAN AND CITY COUNCIL MEMBERS
FROM: MATT THOMPSON, P.E. ACTING CITY ENGINEER
RE: AWARD OF CONTRACT; NELSON AVENUE PAVEMENT REHAB

PROJECT
DATE: MAY 16, 2023

SUMMARY
The Council may consider awarding a contract to Knife River Construction for the construction of the Nelson Avenue Pavement Rehab Project.

DISCUSSION
This project is at the intersection of Nelson Avenue and the SB 70 Offramp. This project is for reconstruction of the roadway and subsurface in the intersection, and reconstruction of the access ramp on the southwest corner.

Plans and Specifications were issued for bid on February 6, 2023, and bids were received on March 14, 2023.

Due to efforts to coordinate with Thermalito Water and Sewer on a project they need to complete at the same location, staff are working with them to determine the best time for the project to commence. Once the construction contract is awarded the contractor will be brought in to further determine the construction timeline. Tentative finish by date is December 1, 2023.

The low bidder was Knife River Construction at $257,526.56. The engineer’s estimate was $255,274.83 with contingencies. Staff recommends allocating a contingency of approximately $26,000.00 (10%) on the low bid for field changes and adjustment due to unforeseen circumstances.

FISCAL IMPACT
Funds for this project were budgeted into the 22/23 fiscal year budget using SB1 Special Gas Tax Funds, but due to construction being postponed to Fall of the 2023, these funds from the 22/23 fiscal year budget will be rolled into the 23/24 fiscal year budget. Funds in the amount of $283,526.56 will come from the Special Gas Tax Fund (SB1) 5071-6230, Local Transportation Fund – Maintenance Streets.
95 Item 4.

RECOMMENDATION
Staff recommends awarding a contract to Knife River Construction for $257,526.56 and allocating $26,000.00 for contingencies. Staff recommends the Council authorize the City Administrator to execute the contract.

CF - 2

4. DISPUTES PERTAINING TO PAYMENT FOR WORK.

Should any dispute arise respecting the true value of any work done or any work omitted, or of any extra work which the Contractor may be required to do or respecting the size of any payment to the Contractor during the performance of this Contract, the dispute shall be informally mediated between the parties. Following such mediation, either party may file an action exclusively in the Butte County Superior Court or in the United States District Court, Eastern District of California. Under no condition shall there be a cessation of work by the Contractor during any such dispute. This article does not exclude recovery of damages by either party for delays.

5. PAYMENT.

Not later than the 20th day of each calendar month, the Contractor shall make a partial payment request to the City on the basis of an estimate approved by the Engineer of the work performed since the last partial payment request during the preceding month by the Contractor with five percent (5%) of the amount of each such estimate retained by the City, until completion of the Project and the recordation of a Notice of Completion of all work covered by this Contract. The City shall make any partial payments provided for in this contract to the Contractor within 30 days of the City’s receipt of an undisputed and properly executed partial payment request from the Contractor. The City shall pay the Contractor interest on the amount of any portion of a partial payment, excluding retention amounts, not made to the Contractor within 30 days of the City’s receipt of an undisputed and properly executed partial payment request from the Contractor at the legal rate set forth in California Code of Civil Procedure Section 685.010.

Upon receipt of a partial payment request from the Contractor, the City shall review the partial payment request for the purpose of determining whether or not the partial payment request is a proper partial payment request.

A partial payment request returned to the Contractor by the City under the provisions of this section shall be accompanied by a written document setting forth the reason(s) why the partial payment request is not proper. The number of days for the City to make a certain partial payment provided for in this Contract, without incurring interest pursuant to this section, shall be reduced by the number of days by which the City exceeds the 14 day return period for such partial payment request, if determined to be improper, as set forth in this section. For the purposes of this section, a “partial payment” means all payments due to the Contractor under this contract, exclusive of that portion of the final payment designated as retention earnings. Also, for the purposes of this section, a partial payment request shall be considered properly executed by the City if funds are available to pay the partial payment request and payment is not delayed due to an audit inquiry by the City’s financial officer.

All work under this contract shall be completed within a period of 45 working days from the date of the Contractor's receipt of a Notice to Proceed from the City. 99 Item 4.

CF - 3

7. EXTENSION OF TIME.

If the Contractor is delayed by acts of negligence of the City, or its employees or those under it by contract or otherwise, or by changes ordered in the work, or by strikes, lockouts, fire, unavoidable casualties, or any causes beyond the Contractor's control, or by delay authorized by the City, or by any justifiable cause which the Engineer shall authorize, then the Contractor shall make out a written claim addressed to the City setting forth the reason for the delay and the extension of the time requested and forward a copy of the claim to the Engineer for approval.

The Engineer will evaluate the claim and if the claim is justifiable, will request the City's approval. No such extension will be allowed unless a written claim therefore has been made within 3 days after the delay became apparent.

If the Contractor fails or refuses to complete the work within the time specified, including authorized extensions, there shall be deducted from monies due the Contractor, not as a penalty, but as liquidated damages the sum of Three Thousand Hundred Dollars ($3,000.00) for each calendar day subsequent to the time specified for each project and the time the work is actually completed and accepted. Delays caused by adverse weather conditions or conditions for which the Owner is clearly responsible will be added to the contract time.

The project is subject to both federal and state prevailing wages. The Contractor shall pay laborers the higher of either the federal or state prevailing wage rate determination for the trades to be utilized. The contractor and all subcontractors on the project shall complete electronic reporting of prevailing wage rate reports through the Department of Industrial Relations, with copies of such reports to be provided to the City.

9. CONTRACT WORK HOURS AND SAFETY STANDARDS REQUIREMENTS.

As used in the following provision, the term “laborers” and “mechanics” include watchmen and guards.
a. Overtime Requirements. Neither the Contractor nor any subcontractor contracting for any part of the Project which may require or involve the employment of laborers or mechanics shall require or permit any such laborer or mechanic in any workweek in which he or she is employed on such work to work in excess of forty hours in such workweek unless such laborer or mechanic receives compensation at a rate not less than one and one-half times the basic rate of pay for all hours worked in excess of forty hours in such workweek, whichever isgreater. b. Violation; Liability for Unpaid Wages; Liquidated Damages. In the event of any violation of the clause set forth in paragraph a. above, the Contractor and any subcontractor responsible therefore shall be liable for the unpaid wages. In addition, the Contractor and subcontractor shall be liable to the City for liquidated damages. Such liquidated damages shall be computed with respect to each individual laborer or mechanic, including watchmen and guards, employed in violation of the clause set forth in paragraph a. above, in the sum of $2,700 for each calendar day on which such individual was required or permitted to work in excess of the standard workweek of forty hours without payment of the overtime wages required by the clause set forth in paragraph a. above. c. Withholding for Unpaid Wages and Liquidated Damages.

RE: FORECLOSURE OF 1218 BIRD STREET
DATE: MAY 16, 2023

SUMMARY
The City Council may consider initiating foreclosure proceedings related to the City of Oroville’s interest in the Deed of Trust against the property located at 1218 Bird Street, Oroville (APN 012-076-007).

DISCUSSION
Staff is seeking authorization from the Council to initiate foreclosure on the property located at 1218 Bird Street. On June 14, 2006, the City assisted Julie Green with a Home Rehabilitation Loan of $164,993.89. Staff received notification that property owner Julie Green had passed away on June 4, 2022. At that time, the Estate was notified that the remaining City of Oroville lien on the property was due and payable in a total amount of approximately $248,117.93.

Staff was advised that the estate was going through probate and the house would be listed and the liens paid off as soon as probate was finished.

Staff received a Notice of Default for the first mortgage, U.S. Bank National Association, which holds the 1st lien position. Staff was notified by Mrs. Green’s daughter that they were going to let the house go through foreclosure. The approximate amount to cure the default and to secure the City’s lien position would be $73,915.29. Comparable properties show the value of 1218 Bird Street to be approximately $293,132.00.

BUSINESS ASSISTANCE AND HOUSING DEVELOPMENT
RE: LETTER OF SUPPORT TO USDA RURAL DEVELOPMENT TO

REDESIGNATE THE CITY OF OROVILLE TO RURAL DESIGNATION
DATE: MAY 16, 2023

SUMMARY
The Council will consider a letter of support to the USDA Rural Development during the 90-day comment period to consider redesignating the City of Oroville back to Rural Designation.

DISSCUSSION
The USDA is currently reviewing their rural maps after the 2020 census. There is support at the state level to redesignate the City of Oroville back to having rural designation. This is helpful for the City because it opens it up for all of the USDA funding programs that are currently available to rural communities, including: housing, community facilities, wastewater, community development, and broadband.

Prior to the 1980 census, the City of Oroville was considered eligible. During the census review, even though the City of Oroville had just over 10,000 residents, it lost its rural status.

Unfortunately, over the past 40+ years, the City of Oroville has not grown significantly, and could have used multiple USDA programs to support its residents. Since that time, demand for affordable homeownership in Oroville has not declined.

While Butte County has a median annual income of about $60,000, Oroville’s median income is just $38,801. Twenty-one percent of Oroville’s residents live in poverty. Butte County has suffered from a lack of affordable housing, particularly homeownership, that has been exacerbated by the Camp Fire and the resulting rising housing costs. The median sales price of a home in Oroville is $305,000, which is out of reach for a low-income household with a traditional mortgage product. Oroville’s population following the 2020 census was 20,042, just 42 people over the 20,000 rural area population limits. In July of 2021, the population of Oroville is estimated at just 19,893, and has seen an .8% decline.

There is a comment period that is open right now. It ends on June 8, 2023 FISCAL IMPACT:

RE: 90-day comment period
Notice of Potential Changes to Eligible Area Maps for USDA Rural Development Housing Programs Dear USDA Rural Development California State Office,
The City of Oroville would like to comment on your March 8th publication regarding the fiscal year 2023 rural area periodic review based on the 2020 census data. Specifically we would like to comment on our community of Oroville, Butte County, being reconsidered for eligibility. We are very familiar with Oroville and its affordable housing challenges and opportunities.

Prior to the 1980 census, the City of Oroville was considered eligible. During the census review, even though the City of Oroville had just over 10,000 residents, it lost its rural status. Unfortunately, over the past 40+ years, the City of Oroville has not grown significantly, and could have used multiple USDA programs to support its residents.

Since that time, demand for affordable homeownership in Oroville has not declined.

Historically, the City of Oroville has had strong ties to agriculture. There were (and remain) mandarin groves within city limits. The surrounding areas include olive orchards, vineyards, and cattle grazing. Prior to the pandemic, a significant portion of the City’s relatively large Hmong population earned their living through small family farms, selling their produce at local farmer’s markets. They are currently rebuilding their family-run businesses post-pandemic.

While Butte County has a median annual income of about $60,000, Oroville’s median income is just $38,801.

Twenty-one percent of Oroville’s residents live in poverty. Butte County has suffered from a lack of affordable housing, particularly homeownership, that has been exacerbated by the Camp Fire and the resulting rising housing costs. The median sales price of a home in Oroville is $305,000, which is out of reach for a low-income David Pittman

household with a traditional mortgage product. Oroville’s population following the 2020 census was 20,042, just 42 people over the 20,000 rural area population limit for areas suffering from a serious lack of mortgage credit for lower income families and not contained within an MSA. In July of 2021, the population of Oroville is estimated at just 19,893, and has seen an .8% decline.

The City of Oroville strongly supports Oroville becoming an eligible area for USDA Rural Development housing services. We believe that access to USDA resources such as self-help housing and other affordable loan products, community facility grants, and funding for wastewater and broadband infrastructure will support our community’s growth, particularly after the devastating Camp Fire in 2018 and North Complex Fire in 2020 Thank you in advance for your consideration.

Sincerely,
David Pittman
Mayor, City of Oroville

STAFF REPORT

FROM: BRIAN RING, CITY ADMINISTRATOR
SCOTT E. HUBER, CITY ATTORNEY
RE: RESOLUTION SUPPORTING THE PERIODIC DISPLAY OF AIRCRAFT

OF HISTORICAL SIGNIFICANCE AT THE OROVILLE AIRPORT
DATE: MAY 16, 2023

SUMMARY
The Council may consider the approval of a resolution in support of the periodic display of aircraft of historical significance at the Oroville Airport.

DISCUSSION
Static aircraft displays have proliferated at municipal airports, at veterans’ facilities, and on military installations. Because aircraft are designed for constant and careful maintenance, they are poorly suited for permanent outdoor display. However, there are significant public benefits to the outdoor display of aircraft, most importantly the encouragement of younger individuals to consider entering one of the many career fields in aviation, and to encourage enlistment in the armed forces.

Static display of historical aircraft fulfill interpretive and landscape architectural roles, and serve both casual and deliberate audiences. They can also be understood as a kind of public art, or at least fulfilling roles similar to public art, and their effects can be measured in ways that are similar to public art installations.

The City has received a request from members of the public and the aviation community to support and encourage the periodic static display of aircraft at the Airport. The support requested is passage of a resolution to encourage those with aircraft of historical significance, as defined in Revenue and Taxation Code section 220.5.

Council will consider approval of the resolution.

FISCAL IMPACT
None. Individuals who display historical aircraft for at least 12 calendar days per year may qualify for a waiver of property taxes on the historical aircraft.

WES ERVIN, PRINCIPAL PLANNER
RE: MEMORANDUM OF UNDERSTANDING WITH EXPERT ADVISORY

TEAM VISIT TO SOUTH OROVILLE TO MAKE REVITALIZATION

RECOMMENDATIONS
DATE: MAY 2, 2023

SUMMARY
Staff has invited a group of emeritus planners from the California Chapter of the American Planning Association to visit in June, conduct community workshops, and make recommendations to help revitalize South Oroville.

DISCUSSION
The California Chapter of the American Planning Association (APA) has a pro bono planning advisory service available to resource challenged or disadvantaged communities. Staff has approached APA about South Oroville, and their Community Planning Assistance Team (CPAT) is interested and available to visit in the June timeframe.

Their visit would include a site tour, review of all available reports and prior plans, a community workshop, meetings, and a follow-up report. The report would suggest a master plan for revitalization of the area, which would include identifying roadblocks to economic development, suggested rezonings, ideas for creating a village center, and possible catalyst projects.

The city annexed South Oroville in 2015 as-is as a disadvantaged community. Since annexation, several studies have been completed or are underway, and some smaller projects have been undertaken, but the city has not had the resources or a cohesive strategy to implement significant reforms. This visit and subsequent report will be a good opportunity for an organized approach to revitalization.

FISCAL IMPACT
The advice is free, but the city must cover travel costs, not to exceed $8,000. Staff is asking HCD to allow an adjustment to the scope of the SB2 Grant to direct more funds to South Oroville. Interim funds would come from the city’s Revolving Loan Fund 233, Budget Unit 7111, Project Code 4608460.

1 POSSIBLE OROVILLE SOUTHSIDE REVITALIZATION

CALIFORNIA APA

COMMUNITY PLANNING ADVISORY TEAM (CPAT)
(MAY 2023?)

1. POTENTIAL SCOPE OF WORK
Area short description
South Oroville was created decades ago, and in the ‘60’s housed workers building the Oroville Dam. The housing stock reflects that age, tending to be under 2,000 square feet in size on lots just under 5,000 square feet. Housing stock is a mix of older stick built and mobile or manufactured homes without garages, about 35% of which need some renovation. About 6 churches have their headquarters there, and all do good community work. There is some investment occurring and some new residential structures are being built – albeit many as rental units, which is the dominant tenant makeup. Poverty is high and the area has been designated a Disadvantaged Community. The area is in the Oroville Federal Opportunity Zone, which may be a way to generate new investment.

The central commercial area is not vibrant, and not centrally located to the area. This potential commercial/village center is also about a quarter mile from Oro Dam Boulevard with its plethora of shopping and fast-food opportunities, so the likelihood of it becoming a core shopping area is questionable. Perhaps its future is as a neighborhood mixed use village center instead.

CPAT Team’s role
The APA CPAT Team comprises experts in planning and community revitalization. The team might visit Oroville, and particularly Southside, tour the vicinity, meet with community leaders, lead at least one community workshop, form expert opinions, and present their findings/recommendations to the community at large. The particular focus of the visit would not be on identifying short-term community services (e.g., code enforcement, homeless services, alley cleanup, etc.) since those are generally known and being implemented. Instead, the focus would be on longer term goals, projects and programs such as:
a. Suggesting a long-term vision for the area
b. Identifying the greatest needs or roadblocks to revitalization c. Suggested rezoning actions to move Southside on a path to revitalization. d. Possible village creation and how to achieve it.
e. Infrastructure investment needed.
f. Catalyst projects (e.g., sidewalk completion, façade improvements, streetscape, traffic calming, amenities, commercial recruitment, etc.), hopefully prioritized. 122
Item 8.
2 2. POTENTIAL 2- OR 3-DAY ITINERARY -- all expenses paid but time is volunteered. a. Arrival and site tour
b. At least one Community meeting; and…
i. Possible Charrette with maps for the community to design their own future.

Could be one for the community, one for schools.
c. Individual interviews with key players – City Council members, Planning Commissioners, opinion leaders
d. Time to absorb the information, collaborate and make recommendations. e. Presentation of recommendations
f. Head home

 During the month of April, the Code Enforcement Team’s statistics leveled out at a more normal number. A plus was the 61 nuisance cases opened during the month. There was a lot of dedication to illegal encampments (40+) and working with nuisance properties that squatters forced their way into. These issues consume a lot of work time. 125
Item i.
3  The code team attended two webinar training sessions: 4th Amendment Right of Entry Training and Ergonomic Training. Both very important liability and health wise.  Code Enforcement, SPCA and Cole and Huber held an administrative hearing for a person responsible for five vicious dogs living at a home in the city limits of Oroville. The dog pack was responsible for several attacks to include the death of a neighbor dog. As a result of this hearing the hearing officer ordered the dogs to be removed from the city limits of Oroville.
 1920 B Street/burned gas station has been an ongoing nuisance property for over a year. Code Enforcement was moving through the judicial system for an abatement warrant. Prior to the warrant being signed the property owner hired a company to abate burned debris, remove all overgrown vegetation, and abate all junk trash and debris. The property is now clear and no longer a nuisance.
 2280 Veatch Street is another nuisance property. This property is located across the street from Pacific Coast Producers. This was a property that was owned by a dead property owner who left no trust or will. I was able to locate a relative in southern California. I obtained permission to secure and control the property through the probate process. With the assistance of the family member the city was able to remove 11 vehicles of different types, several squatters and nine dogs. I just received word this week that the property will be closing escrow in a couple weeks. This is a big win for code enforcement.
 I challenged my administrative assistant with the task of preparing our department for our first community education and outreach booth at the 2023 Feather Fiesta Days.

Code staff will educate the public on municipal codes and safety. My administrative assistant has put a lot of effort into this project. Please come by and visit the team.
